They send you before an examiner

that because you have refused,
you will have to come back in two

Fireworks
July 4th?

The following is a reprint of the
law of Delaware regarding the sale
and use of fireworks. This article is
being published by the Kent Coun-
ty Volunteer Firemen's Association
in an extended effort to save life
and property from the ravages of
fire. The Act specifically provides
that on and after September 5,
1889, it was unlawful for any per-
son to sell, offer or expose for sale
or have in his possession with in
tent to sell or to use, discharge, or
cause to be discharged, ignited or
fired or otherwise set in action
within the State of Delaware any
fireworks, firecrackers, rockets,
sparklers, torpedoes, roman can
dies, fire -ballons or other fireworks
except after having obtained a per-
init as later provided in the statute
and provided further that the Sec
tion does not apply to any person,
firm or corporation then establish
ed and manufacturing fireworks of
any and all kinds in the State. The
statute further provides that it is
unlawful for any persons, associa-
tion or company to fire or dis
charge on or into any street, high
way, alley or public place a rifle,
gun, pistol, revolver, cane, cannon
or other appliance projecting or
exploding explosive substances, and
exeepts therefrom only police Of
ficers in the regular discharge of
their duties and persons using ex-
plosives in quarrying or for blast
ing or other industrial use. Sec
tion 8 of the Act provides that a
permit may be obtained from the
State Highway Department upon
proper application. Section 4 gives
the State Highway Department au-
thority to confiscate fireworks or
explosives illegally stored in the
State, and Section 5 thereof pro-
vides for a punishment of not less
than $500 nor more than $4,000,
within the discretion of the Court,
and gives Justices of the Peace and
Municipal Court of the City of Will
mington plenary jurisdiction over
any violatinos of the Act.

The central supply service is said
to be viewed by the commission,
not as a huge purchasing and dis
tributing agency, but one that would
set standards for the systematic
purchase and handling of supplies.
It would buy and distribute only
certain articles in common use.
The supply service would be part
of proposed Office of General
Services to perform housekeeping
functions for the various agencies.
AS has been reported in The Star,
the Bureau Of Federal Supply would
be transferred from the Treasury
to the new General Services Once.
In its investigation of the Gov
ernment's huge shipping bill, the
commission is reported to have
found that agencies with well-de-

saved money. This, presumably

Hoover Group Finds

To Transport Supple!

The Hoover Commission is re-
ported to have found that the Gov
ernment's bill for transporting sup
plies and other property amounts
to more than $1,000 100000 a year.
1t is said to have found that
large quantities of supplies are
stored long distances from the
places where they are used, and
that there is tremendous duplica-
ton Of facilities for storing and
distributing these supplies.
In Washington, for example,
there are said be 70 different Gov
ernment activities with storage and
issue facilities, exclusive of the
Bureau of Federal Supply and the
Government Printing Office.
1t IS for these and other reasons
that the Commission on Organiza-
ton OF the Executive Branch, headed
by former President Hoover, is re-
ported ready to recommend the
establishment of a central supply
service. The commission will begin

that there is much duplication of

As an example Of lack Of planning
the commission Is reported to have
learned that about half Of the pur-

a transaction Is more than SO.
While q central supply agency
would be set up to bring about an
efficient supply organization, most
of the activities would be decentral-
lied into the various agencies and

Arrangement Ideas
Given Garden Club

At the last meeting of Wood
ridge Garden Club, T. H. Dent OF
Blackstone, Inc, and z. D. Black
istone, jr., gave suggestions on
basic operations in flower arrange
ments. Mr.. Blackstone pointed
out that sweet peas can be more
readily held in place by the needles
of a flower holder If first inserted
in the hollow stem of a narcissus.
Mr.. Dent made several arrange
ments and suggested that certain
preparations in the water will pre-
vent growth of misunderstanding
bacteria. He said arrangement
should be based upon a picture
in the mind of the arranger. Place
first in the holding device the
taller flowers; then the shorter
flowers or those of other colors to
provide filler or focal points, he
said,

This Week in the Garden

Dormant rose bushes, shrubs
and berry plants may be set out
as soon as the soil is dry enough
to be worked. Many thought the
soil dry enough to work last week
but most of our clay soils are still
too wet. It is risky to try working
soil while too wet. Pick up q
handful Of the soil and squeeze
1t firmly. II the clump glistens
or fails to fall apart when struck

Lawns may be swept now as q
part OF the spring cleanup. al
though it is preferable to leave
the dead grass to rot down and
serve both as a mulch and as a
source Of plant food. Do not use
steel rake to clean a lawn as
1t tears the grass plants out of
the soil. Rolling is not often de-
sirable since it is usually done
while the soil is wet and thus
packs it-destroying the physical
condition. Grass plants need air
for their roots just as do other
plants.
The spring cleanup under fruit
trees is especially important in
controlling insects and diseases
which live over winter on the
fallen foliage and fruit. This
material should be collected and
buried or burned. Mumied
grapes. peaches and plums deserve
especial attention. as they are
likely to contain the spores Of
