INVESTURES ON MONDAY

This is the twentysixth year of
Scouting in America, and Scouting
marches on upholding the tradi-
tions and the ideals of American
citizenship. Scout Troop 81, of
Smyrna, held their weekly meeting
at the Scout headquarters on Mon
day evening, February 10th, with
Scoutmaster Foster, presiding. On
Monday, February 18th, the Troop
Committee Chairman and Scout
master will invest five boys into
the troop. Mr.. Foster announced
that the boys would have a spread
after the meeting. He congratulat-
ed the boys on their good turnout
for the various Scout activities
during the week, and also on the
good work Of the bake committee
of which Donald Ennis was chair
man. The boys took in $500 at
the bake. This money is to be
used in the general improvement of
the troop room and project mater
ial. The troop purchased new
stove and the meeting room was
warmer than usual Mr.. Foster
announced the meeting would be a
recreational meeting While Mr.
Unruh. the assistant Scoutmaster,
took charge of some games, Mr.
Foster totaled the contest points
and announced the winners. Mel
son Stats won the achievement
contest with 156 points, and Donald
Ennis came in second with 146
points. The Recruits were initial
ed. During the remainder of the
meeting games and other pastimes
were indulged in. The meeting
closed with the singing of taps and
the Scoutmaster's Benediction.
Scouts, one million strong, cele-
brated their twenty-sixth birthday
during the past week Scouting is
a worthwhile activity for your boy.
Why not send him to Scouts so he
may get what one million other
boys are getting out of it. Scout
ing markes good citizens and boys
who are ready in cases of emerg-
encies.

DAMAGE TO
FRUIT IS SEEN
w. T. Derickson, Director of
State Market Bureau Is
Hopeful
OTHER STATES SEE LOSS

w. T. Derickson, Director of the
Bureau of Markets, of the State
Board of Agriculture, reports that
according to information received
from Delaware fruit growers there
has not been any damage to apples
or peaches in Delaware because of
low temperatures up to the present
time. The lowest official tempera-
ture recorded in the central part of
the State was one degree above
zero. It was about the middle of
February last year when peaches
were severely damaged, and the
growers are hoping there will not
be any damage this year. Mr. Der
ickson has been in communication
with the Bureaus of Markets in
other States regarding damage
from freezing up to the present
time and while in most cases it is
too early to make an official esti-
mate, many of the states indicate
they have already suffered a severe
damage. In Illinois it is officially
reported that the peach crop in the
Centralia-Mt. Vernon-F1ora district
is a total loss and that shipments
fro mother peach producing sec
tions in Illinois will be very light.
Virginia reports their peach crop
has been damaged considerably,
but no official estimate can be
made at this time Reports from
Pennsylvania indicate there has
been considerable damage to peach
es in some sections of the State.
These reports vary from consider
able damage to total loss, but no
official estimate has yet been given
out. New Jersey reports they have
had some very severe weather with
possible slight damage to peaches
of the more tender varieties, but
there has been no general damage
as yet. The temperature in New
Jersey has fallen as low as fifteen
degrees below in the fruit districts
of the northern part of the State.

WELFARE HOME
WORK DELAYED
Cold Weather Holds Up Con-
structiOn of Laundry
and Kitchen
REPORT MADE

The report of the superintendent
of the State Welfare Home, pre-
sented to the commission at ita
monthly meeting Saturday, showed
that maintenance cost of the home
for January was $11, ,474.30, of
which amount New Castle county
paid S74O092; Kent county, S2363-
Il, and Sussex county, $17O967.
One-half of these amounts will be
refunded later by the state, in ac-
cordance with law covering finan-
cial operation Of the home. The
actual cost per patient day for the
month was S1O2, which has been
about the average for several
months past. Work on the new
laundry and kitchen units has been
considerably delayed by the severe
weather, but as more favorable
conditions prevail the work will
proceed rapidly. With the compile
ton of these units the cost of op-
GRAFTON is expected to show de-
crease. There were $50 inmates in
the home on January 81. New ad-
missions during the month totaled
IL. The health of the inmates dur
ing the severe weather has been
good. Four deaths were reported
during the month. Superintendent
A. V. Gilliland reported As on the
waiting list for admission. At pres
ent time the home is considerably
over-crowded. DR.. Gilliland report
ed a definite start having been
made in organizing a department
of occupational thereapy. A sur
vey has been made and various
guests started in such occupations
as they appear best fitted for.
There are many details to be work
ed out in organizing this depart
ment but so far the inmates have
readily accepted the plan and some
hidden talents have been brought
to light. 1t is planned in the near
future to obtain a show case to be
placed in the lobby where work of
the inmates may be displayed. An
interesting fact is that during the
month of January 38,273 meals
were served.
