New Stamp
Birth of DeLulUnre
To Be Depicted

WILMINGTON, Del, May 26
QN.SO.-A new Scent stamp,
commemorating the founding Of
Delaware by the Swedes and the
Firms 300 years ago. will go on
sale here June 27, it was an
nounced by the Post Office De-
'partment in Washington.
Stanley Arthurs, of Wilmington,
designed this latest addition to
philately, which shows Peter
Minuit and his band of settlers
approaching Indians to barter for
land in the Delaware River Val
ley, with the Kalmar Nyckel, his
ship, in the background.
Landing of the Swedes and
Finns," is the legend at the top
Of the stamp, and below,
"1638-United States Postage
1885," 1t will be square, similar
to recent Virginia Dare ISSUE"
The Firms, who share honorS
with the peace-loving Swedes on
the tercentary stamp, at first
burned forests and hunted "out of
season." contrary to the edicts Of
their fellow settlers, but later
settled down to quiet living and
contributed greatly to the develop
ment Of New Sweden on the banks

9O's Music
Pleasantly
Recalled
BY WILLIAM NEWMAN

The gay nineties, when popu-
lar music made no claims to be-
ing the voice of the nations
soul and a good tune was just
that and nothing more, were
pleasantly if somewhat derisive-
ly recalled by the Agriculture
Chorus last night in the Agri-
culture Auditorium.
To a program made up Of
such songs as 1.-THE Sidewalks Of
New York." I'm the Good Old
Summer Time" "The Bowery,"
After the Ball, Silver Threads
Among the Gold" and other
good tunes Of so years ago they
gave the title "a Gay Nineties
Picnic" Costumes were ex-
aggerated, though few Of the
ladies sacrificed anything Of the
grace that belonged to long
skirts. full sleeves and tight
hodices.
These young people could not
do the old dances, and to be
fair, did not try Nor did they
seek to make these old songs
persuasive. They kidded them,
as they probably deserved. Yet,
listening again to the familiar
cadences, and comparing them
with the pounding rhythms of
jazz and the inanities of swing
one wondered just where this
generation gets its musical
superiority complex.
The show had tempo, as
Robert Frederick Freund's pro.
grams always have. The
chorus sang well and there were
some good sole voices, notably
that Of Ethel Gribble, Leonard
Kaphart, Prudence jackson,
Ralph Marston and, I suspect,
Katharine Warren, though she
distorted her version of THE
Mocking Bird" to travesty Lily
Pons.
Tonight, at the Arts Club, a
program of works by Washing
ton composers will represent
Mary Howe, Aldan Finckel,
Henry Gregor, Conrad Bernier,
Dean Shure, and Edward Pot
ter. The Washington String
Quartet will assist,

AUTO GAS PERIL
FOUGHT IN OHIO

COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 26
GN.s0-Carbon monoxide, deadly
gas which has killed many motor
lists, is being warred upon by the
Ohio health department.
Assisted by State highway pa
trolmen, a group Of doctors and
industrial commission representa-
tives, the health department takes
a gas detecting apparatus on the
highway to gather material per-
tinent to the actions Of the fatal
fumes.
Sometimes commercial vehicles
are halted, made to proceed for
two miles with all windows closed.
An expert determines the amount
Of gas present in the machine at
the end Of the run.
Drivers are questioned as to the
distance they are travelling, their
working hours, previous accidents
or illness, and then given tests
which determine the amount OF
carbon monoxide in their blood.
