The Constitution of Delaware

One of the most interesting sub
jects in Civics about which we
learn a great deal is the Constitu-
tion of Delaware. This is natural
ly an important subject to us be-
cause it is the power that rules
and guides us.
Since the Civics class of High
School has visited the Legislature
at Dover, it has proved very inter-
esting to go still more deeply into
it's proceedings. We have learned
the laws by which the Governor,
acknowledgements, and other
civic officers abide. We have learn
ed under what laws our educational
systems are set up, and under what
laws the Senators and Representa-
tives abide.
These facts have proved to be
of a great educational value. One
learns a great deal in Civics
class about government of State.

Grin And Bear 1t

In order to build a strong char
acter one must learn to do unpleas-
ant things and do them well. There
are many things to be accomplish
ed in our life that to us seem un-
necessary but in reality actually
make us what we are.
1 have heard the phrase Grin
and Bear 1t" many times but new
er did I realize what significance
we should attach to it. To be able
to do a hard task without whimp-
ering, to be able to endure physical
hardships and even mental handi-
caps, cheerfully, are the makings
of a rugged constitution.
When we are doing an unpleas-
ant task we must never reveal to
others our innermost feelings. Con-
trolling our own thoughts will help
others to do so, too.

THIS is the week to eat strawber-

picked and shipped the third week of
May than in any other week of the
year. Cherries, pineapple and rhubarb
are also seasonable.
Poultry prices continue lower than
they were year ago, eggs cost about
the same amount and butter is con-
siderably higher. Meat prices are
about as they were last week but fish
is plentiful and many varieties are
cheap.
Good Iceberg lettuce is again rea-
sonable. Other good vegetable values
will be found in potatoes, peas, spinach
and asparagus. Beans, beets, cabbage,
carrots, cauliflower and green peppers
continue to be relatively expensive.

A sea Shell Scientist Discovery

DR.. Horace G. Richards, young
Philadelphia geologist, during the
last ten years has been gathering
shells all along the Atlantic Coast,
from Hudson Bay to Florida and
around the Gulf of Yucatan.
His purpose is to help recon-
struct the history of this change
able earth during some of its more
changeable moments in the great
ice age.
So there were cold ages when
the glacier destroyed the living
things in its path and chilled the
forms of life the ice didn't reach.
DR.. Richards notes the type Of
shell-warm water, cold water, sea
water, fresh water. Then he knows
what conditions once existed
Within Philadelphia's city limits
no sea shells have yet been found,
although fossel salt water one-cell-
ed plants have been gathered.
DR.. Richards found reminders Of
those chilly days washed in from
the ocean bottom off New Jersey.
The shells are of a kind now liv-
ing around New England. Shells
near Florida show that that region
once knew colder days.
This study of sea shells think
is very interesting.

Our State Hospital

The purpose of Farnhurst is the
same as that of any other hospital
so why can it not be called hos
pital? The only difference is that
it attends to those mentally i'll,
whereas, the ess complex institu-
tions care for those physically i'll.
The name asylum is altogether
misleading and very unsuitable.
The impression of the majority of
people is that the patient is there
forever, while in reality he is there
only until he is cured. 1t is also
possible to attend for regular
treatments and commute between
your home and the hospital.
The hospital is supervised by
Doctor Tarumianz who lives on the
two hundred and fifty acres that
belong to the hospital. Doctor
Ballard acted as our host. The
mental hygiene clinic is supervis-
ed by Doctor Yuler who made the
work of that particular department
very clear to our group. For those
who are only very slightly i'll there
is the occupational therapy ward,
a music hall, baseball diamond,
greenhouse, and gymnasium to oc-
cupy thier time. 1t is astonishing
to see the work produced in the
workroom and to watch what ap-
pears to be normal people enter
tanning themselves by playing
baseball or walking around the
park. Some of the patients work
in the cafeteria, laundry and other
departments where people would
have to be employed. There is al
so farm and farmhouse where
some Of the food is obtained for
the institution.
The Hospital is certainly an as
set to Delaware, for it reclaims
many lives.

Girl Members Have Chance II
Win At Food Preparation

Girls enrolled in All food pro-
jects may again compete for val
liable prizes in the National Food
Preparation Contest being con-
Quoted by club leaders with the aid
of the State Extension Service. 1t
opens wide and fascinating field
for girls who wish to excel in cul-
mary arts. Use of new wrinkles
in commercial food products are an
interesting phase of the contest, as
are failure-proof methods, short
cuts. and economical practices de-
vised daily in test kitchens, all of
which make food and its prepara-
tion a delight. Credit is given to
poultry, garden and orchard pro-
jects and serving of their products,
also to the preparation of special
dishes promoting greater consump-
tion of neglected health items in
the diet. Drying, curing and can
ming of foods, picnic and school
lunches, meal planning and table
decorations and settings for for
NAL and informal occasions are
significant in the program. To en-
courage club girls in all these
things, one refrigerator concern
which markets kerosene operated
refrigerator, offer 5000 in cash
scholarships and eight refrigera-
tors to national and sectional win
ners, trips to the 10th National

FASTEST train in the world was Al the boast of Germany In 1888 when she put into regular service the first of the modern streamlincd trains, "The Flying Hamburger" Electrically driven, 1t averaged a speed of more than 70 miles per hour on the run from Hamburg to Berlin. At times 1t passed 100 miles per hour.
 Secret of that flying speed was the reduction of air resistance to a minimum; streamiining, as we call 1t today. To achieve the most practical form, specially construct. ed models had been blown through the so-called "wind canal" used for testing Zeppelin models.
 Tho final result was a train sheathed In metal nearly to the rails, designed low, curved and with motors in the running gear. This rail Zeppelin" is composed of two units, joined ia the center and carrying lo2 passengers. In each end Is a 4io.horsepower Maybach-D motor, connected directly to a generator supplying the power for the electric motors which drive the train.
