gives a very practical object lesson
in modern war That does not mean
that any country is justified in in
vading a neutral land to gain a mill
tary advantage. but it does show
what can be done by thorough pre-
paredness.
The Nazis obtained control in
three weeks of many strategic points
in that little country. 1t is a terri

The Month of
Weddings

The June wedding has become q
kind of tradition, as a picture Of
beauty, sentiment and the happi-
ness of united lovers. Nature pours
out wealth of floral triumphs in
June. Countless brides take advan-
tage of this colorful time to turn
their weddings into pictures of ro-
nance and artistic effect.
Weddings are beautiful apart from
the loveliness produced by decora-
tions, costumes, and the fateful
words of the marriage service. A
wedding touches very closely the
chords of human emotion. We see
two people starting out on great
adventure. the creation of a new
family. The world is an uncertain
place, with difficulties and dangers
on every hand, but the wedding cou-
pies face the mists of the hidden fu-
tuIe with a resolute heart.
They are inspired by the strong
est emotion that moves human life,
the passion of love. They make SOL
emn pledges to bear the burdens of |
life unitedly. The courage thus dis
played is a reminder to us all that /
however severe the trials of life,
they can be borne if families meet
them with a resolute heart and COM
bined effort. There can be hope and
confidence in the darkest day, and I
the rocky roads of life can be sur
mounted.
So the blessings of friends and
and the whole community
go out to all who unite their for
tunes in June wedding, or at any
time in the year. There are days
when there is hot and dusty work to
be done, with no one playing any
wedding march and no line of
friends saying best wishes.
Every welded couple should look
back to the wedding day, and try to
carry out every one of those solemn
promises. Then when the sunset Of
life comes, they will have made a
good journey, and have been re-
Rarded with life's best gifts.

Allied Victories

The long succession Of defeats
which the allied forces have suffer-
ed in the war give many the idea
that the German war machine is in
vincible. Our people are sad at the
long row Of free nations that have
come under the Hitler heel. Austria,
Czechoslovalkia, Poland. Denmark,
Norway, Holland, and now Belgium.
It is a melancholy list of casualties.
placing under Nazi domination some
of the finest people of the world.
The Nazis browbeat and brighten
the remaining little neutrals. and tell
them that if they don't want to be
ground to the dust, they would bet
ter give up.
1t is remarked that so far the
British and French have been de-
feated on every field of battle. There
are two fields Of battle in which up
to date they have been successful.
1t was the purpose of the Germans
to wipe the British navy off the
seas, and to send such a vast ton
mage of British merchant ships to
the bottom that England would be
deprived of its main food supply.
In those aims the Germans have
been defeated. Most of the ships
bearing loads of food and supplies
come in regularly under convoy to
British ports. A good part of the
German navy has gone to the bot
tom.
Also the Nazis maintained a cam
,aign of air terror over British ports !

we're not able to do any terrible !
amage. The great German air feet

lie field by attacking railroad lines, r
over plants, columns of advancing y
roops, supply trains, etc. It is less +
ffectiVe when it comes to assailing h
tiles and towns and supply depots l,
'hich are we'll protected in their h
ornament location.
The Germans are making awful
treats of what they will do to Eng
nd now that they have the Eng
sh channel ports. 1t is only about D
miles across the English Channel a

that narrow distance is likely to p

Graduation Dav

One of the great days of the jour
ney through life here in Delaware ii
that time when the youth graduates
from school or college. The day
marks one of those deep lines OF
division which separate the eras and
periods of experience. If the grad
uation is the final one, completing
the students education, it is like a
great bridge over which he crosses
into an unknown future.
Yesterday he was a mere student,
struggling to learn the wisdom of
the ages, and acquire some skill in
handling the tools through which we
build something worth while. The
thoughts of thousands of wise men,
philosophers, poets, scientists, have
been poured into his mind He has
been given access to the libraries of
the world, to find what the human
race has learned in its upward |
climb.
Tomorrow he becomes one of the |
workers of the world, or at least he
tries to become one. A mighty ar
ray of new problems arise to tor
ment him. He not merely has to sell
his services to the world, but he has
to make the services so pleasing to
the world that he will receive bread
and meat and house rent in return.
What is the most fitting form of
program for a day so epochal in the
life of youth? Some schools like to
get some great man in the world of
thought to come and talk to the
graduates and their friends there as
sembled. Ii is a fine time to present
new ideas that shall make a last
ing impression on minds whose pat
terms are not yet stereotyped into
permanent form.
To the public the most interesting
- 81 aaaaaaatiaIa Ia aaE.haps. the l.
program in which leading members
of the graduating class are given a
chance to utter their own thoughts.
The world thereby gets an idea of
what they have learned through
these years of study. 1t is a pleas
we to see what wise and mature
are presented on these oc-
casions. The graduates know a lot
more than their parents did at the
same age.

unreal after the fantastic events

Mary started toward Soho
Square but found she was going an
entirely different direction. With
out knowing it her steps were fol-
lowing the dictates of her heart.
She had to see Gilbert Lennox at
once.
At the hospital she was shown
into a waiting room. 1t was only
minute-and then-the sight Of
Gilbert's serious face.
Il had to see you. There's some
thing I must tell you. I hard

waited for her to go on. She threw
back her head, the maize ripples
of her hair brushing her shoulders.

There was puzzled expression
on Gilbert's face. He took a step
closer. Then his eyes lighted with
unbelievable happiness.

I've wanted-what I've waited for.
I've never stopped loving you and
never will, l guess. Well be re-
married in church and then go
back home as soon as I've finished
my service in France"
Mary drew away. 1t was agon-
izing-this knowing that happiness
was right beside her and she
couldn't reach for it. No, I can't
be your wife, she said family.
This is the end-goodbye. Yes

smile came to her lips. That's the

whispered. "Vincent's been foolish

Bond Averages

By the Associated Pre-.
NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-THE bond
market concentrated on local trac-
ton issues to the almost complete
exclusion of corporate and Govern
ment loans today.
Fast bidding lifted prices Of the
fractions fractions to an outside Of
Z points as the short session got
into the final hour.
Buying was fostered, brokers said,
by the belief unification of the city's
transit facilities was now assured.
City authorities said sufficient
Brooklyn Manhattan Transit bonds
have been earmarked to bring the
necessary assents to unification to
the 80 per cent required.
Boosted were such issues as
B-M-T 412s of '66 and collateral
4las of 66, Brooklyn Union Elevated
lst IS and Interborough Rapid
TIansit collateral IS of 80.
Vigorous trade in two corporate
loans saved the group from al
most complete stagnation. Southern
Kraft 412s ran up major frac-
ton and International Mercantile
Marine IS more than a point on
substantial turnover.
Scandinavian loans took a beat
ing in the foreign group. Of as
much as 3 points were Finland IS,
Estonia Republic rs, Denmark IS
and 512s.
United States Government loans
were mixed, with most issues un-
traded.
