MILFORD MAN
DIES FROM GAS
V. M. ID. Harrington, Retired

By Poison Gas
WAS FOUND IN HIS AUTO

Vincent M. D. Harrington, re-
tired contractor of Milford, was
found dead in an automobile in his
garage on Monday morning, of
last week, from the effects of car
bon monoxide gas. He had been
dead about two hours when found
by William Fisher and George
KINNEY, who noticed the motor
running when they passed the gar
age. Looking through a window
they saw Mr.. Harrington slumped
in the seat of his car. They broke
open the garage and drove the car
out-of-doors. Mr.. Harrington was
dead when taken to physician
Coroner Harry Pusey of Sussex
county conducted an inquest on
Monday night, and verdict OF
accidental death was returned. Mr.
Harrington made his home with
his daughter and son-in-law, Mr..
and Mrs. Thad Hollis. 1t is be-
lieved that he was attempting to
warm UP his motor when he was
overcome by the deadly fumes
from the motor In early life Mr..
Harrington resided at Cedar Beach
and was active in the sturgeon
fishing industry, which fourished
in the Delaware Bay. He later
moved to Milford and engaged in
the contracting and building bust
ness, and built many of Milford's
business buildings. Besides Mrs.
Hollis, he is survived by two other
daughters, Miss Ida Harrington, of
Darlington, Pa, and Miss Anna

Primary Health Examination

Doctor Smith was a visitor al
both the white and colored schools
Of Smyrna last week. The whole
school was not examined, but just
the ones who had not received a
previous examination. A complete
examination was not given. II
took in just the tonsils, heart, and
lungs.
In the white school 21 were ex-
amined. No lung or heart condi-
tions were found, but s were found
to have enlarged tonsils.
In the colored school he examin-
ed II pupils. Although none Were
subjected to lung conditions, 9
were found to have enlarged ton
sils and one boy had a cardiac
condition.
The purpose of this examination
of course, is to find out the exact
conditions of the children when
they enter school.
In the future, the State Board
of Health hopes to be able to ex-
anime the children when they en-
ter school, in the fourth grade and
in the eighth grade, and check up
on cardiac, tonsil, or lung condi-
tions. AS yet, this is not a posi-
tive move, but it is hoped to BE
done.

Fall Fever

Spring Fever has a twin sister
Fall Fever Given the choice of
going to school or taking a walk
through the woods when the trees
are painted with autumn colors
and the air is crisp and fresh, who
could possibly choose the indoors ?
Not anyone in his right mind. In
the evening how easy it is to sit
and dream of attending football
games and fraternity dance. But
there isn't time for dreaming for
a debate must be prepared for
civics, story mmust be written
for English, and a French vocab-
ulary must be studied.
On a bright cold autumn day it
would be so much nicer to stay at
home and sit by the fire and read
good book or knit, than to go to
school and sit in a drafty class
room. But school has to come
first, when it really comes later in
the minds of pupils.
The only thing that's worse than
Fall Fever is Spring Fever-or
shall we call them both just plain
laziness

The 1884 crop of soybeans in
Delaware is expected to be larger
than last year, according to the
U. S. Department of Agriculture.
The increase is due to the larger
acreage since the average yield
on the farms of growers who re-
ported is indicated to be 17.75
bushels per acre, as compared with
18 bushels an acre last year. An
other reason is that many fields
intended for hay were allowed to
seed because of wet weather at
haying time. At the same time an
increased demand for soybeans for
seed, feed and commercial purpos-
es is expected to more than take
care of this years increased crop.
The big demand for soybeans has
boosted the price. 1t is expected
the 1885 crop will exceed that of
1884 and farmers are warned not
to be stampeded by attractive
prices now into dumping beans on
the market.

Hot and Cold

Will the heating system of this
school ever be uniform
In some classrooms, a cold, blank
stare is given upon entrance; in
others, one receives a rather heat
ed glare.
Shivers race up and down ones
spine. This room is too cool, now
this one is too warm. If ever a
fairy story was true, it seems as
though the story of the Three
Bears" has actually happened, for
one place is either too cold or too
hot. When the happy medium"
/; is ever found, we shall surely be
overjoyed, but until that time, if
you should look in one room and
coats and jackets on, for goodness
sakes don't think it is a fresh air
sanatorium but remember it is
just one of the cold ronns. If, in
another instance, you should see
another class garbed in summer
clothing, don't think it is a Miami
Beach classroom, but just a balmy
room.
If your son and daughter stay
more than one year in room.
don't blame them; they are just
taking health precautions and be-
coming acclimated.
Until the heater starts working
properly, we will wait patiently for
the queer seasons to disappear.
