Pepper Hondkerchiefs
Greet Sanitary Aid

"DEOP the handkerchief" isn't
l. just a game. 1t holds les
son. The use of fabric handker-
chiefs in winter, when colds are
prevalent, is an out-of-date custom.
No one should be called upon to
handle or launder cold-infected
handkerchiefs.
They have no place with today's
hygienic standards, Helen Kendall
writes in the December issue Of
Good Housekeeping. Train your
children, she advises, to use them
not only at home but at school. The
general use of paper handkerchiefs
is increasing and is a sanitary
practice.
Fabric handkerchiefs can be kept
snowy white and hygienically clean
by the use of a household bleach,
which will whiten and disinfect them
at the same time. Another way to
disinfect handkerchiefs is to soak
them in a disinfectant solution be-
fore washing. Or they can be boiled
in a soapy water for at least 10 min
utes.
Miss Kendall offers one more sug-
gestion if you use fabric handker-
chiefs; Keep them out of the laundry
hamper. A paper bag or garbage-can
liner is useful for holding them.

TRAINING FOR
DEFENSE WORK
First Course in u. of DIS
Training Program for De-
Tense Workers to Start
EMPLOYEES TO STUDY

The first course in the University
of Delaware's training program for
defense industry workers will be-
gin as soon as approval Is received
from DIR. John w. Studebaker, U.
S. commissioner of education, it
was revealed Friday by Dean Rob
ert L. Spencer OF the School of En-
cheering, who is in charge of ar
rangements.. Dean Spencer has
submitted an outline of the course,
and asserted that the university is
ready to go" when backing of the
federal sponsors is given. Tenta-
tive date for opening Of the pro-
gram was at first set for January
1, but whether it will be started by
that time, Dean Spencer said, de
ponds on how soon action is taken
in Washington on his suggestions
for the course. Employees of three
firms, all of whom are working on
preparedness contracts, will study
under the first unit of the program.
Dean Spencer's approval listed an
expected 20 workers for the course,
with a minimum of 10, and a max
imum of so enrollees set. The three
firms are: Triumph Explosives,
Inc, of Elkton; Continental Dia-
mond Fibre Co., and National Vul-
canized Fibre Co., of Newark and
Wilmington. DR.. D. U. Greenwald
of the university's mechanical en-
cheering staff will be instructor
| If the enrolment exceeds 30, he
probably will be assigned an assist
ant. Glasses for the course will be
held in the evening, in Evans Hall,
the university's engineering center.
Additional courses for the training
program may be held in Whining
| ton, according to tentative ar
engagements, in cases where no lab
oratory facilities are necessary and
time could be saved for men work
ing in Wilmington. Cost of the
program is paid by the federal
government from a recent $1,000
| 900 appropriation. The amount to
be received by the university will
be small, DrWalter Hullihen, pres
ident, said, since the principal ex-
penses are salaries for instructors.

1t has been a banner year for
Dan Cupid in Wilmington, the
Board of Health reports, in esti-
mating that marriages during 1910
will exceed by at least 1,O64 the
total for 1889. 1t is estimated
that over 1925 marriages will
have been performed this year
against last years figure Of 1,237.
For the past IL months there have
been 2,O67 marriages performed in
Wilmington. Already this month
235 have been performed. OF the
total the board reports 1,784 We're
of white people and 273 Negro. The
large increase is believed to have
been caused by the selective ser
vice act and the blood tests re
quired of prospective brides and
grooms in nearby states.
September Holds Record
September holds the record with
Alb, followed by October with 338.
In 1888 there were 888 marriages,
