Mrs. Jennie WOOtten accompan-
led Mrs. Grace Clements of Milford
on Wednesday to spend the day
shopping in Philadelphia.
Parts have been given out and
rehearsing is underway for a
Christmas Pageant entitled "The
First Christmas Morn," which will
be given on Sunday evening, De-
cember 19. The pageant is under
the direction of Mrs. Hazel Roe.
The Christmas program given by
the departments Of the Sunday
School will be given on Sunday
morning, December 19.
The Bush family who have lived
in Mrs. Lille McIlvaine's home for
the past several months, are NOV
ing to Mrs. Bush's home in Ohio.
Mr. Bush, who is stationed at the
Dover Air Base, had expected to
shortly receive his discharge and
it was a surprise order he received
for an overseas assignment instead.
There was a gOOdly number out
to the services in the church on
Sunday evening to hear Chaplain
McRainey talk and show slides he
had taken while stationed in Korea,
Following the showing of the slides
an offering was taken for the Kor-
can Orphanage Fund, which
amounted to approximately S28.
There were 35 members Of the
WSCS who attended their Decem-
Der meeting and Christmas party
at the home of Mrs. Margaret Far
row on Wednesday evening. Co
hOstesses were Mrs. Eethel Darling
Mrs. Sally Barratt and Mrs. Jennie
Minner.
A devotional program was in
charge Of Mrs. Lille McIlvaine
which included the laying of oul
offering on a decorated table. This
Offering was Christmas gifts
brought by each member to be sem
to the children of the Mary TOdC
Gambrill Home.

human interest details may be gar

writings it is pointed out.
The Council, under PENIS Char
ter of 1901, was a body appointed
by him, by the Lieutenant Cover
nor, or President and Council it.
self, for executive and advisory
aid in government. This Council
could suggest legislation, could
draw bills and present them to the
House of Representatives for con-
sideratiOn, but the House only had
the power to enact laws for the
signature of the Governor.
This power of the Assembly of
the three counties and their legal
right to separate themselves from
the Pennsylvania counties in legis-
lation came after long years of
friction and controversy between
council and assembly, and between
the upper" and "loweT" counties
of Penn's government. After Will
liam Penn's arrival on the Del
aware in 1882, his form of govern
ment that joined all his counties
in one General Assembly limited
the right to initiate legislation to
Penn himself, his Lieutenant Gov
ernor and the Council.
The House could only approve
suggest amendments or reject the
measures proposed. However, nc
bill could become a law without
the consent of the House. This die
not satisfy the people; they wanted
direct expression of their legisla.
tive needs through their elected
representatives
The disagreement over legisla
tion was general through al
Penn's Counties. The friction be
tween the Pennsylvania and thu
Delaware counties came from diff
ference in the ideas and ways o
life of the inhabitants. Most of tht
people of the three Pennsylvania
counties were English Quakers
Almost all the people of the Del
aware counties were Dutch, Swedes
French, Scots, Irish and non
Quaker English. And they hal
been doing things their own wa,
long before the Quakers arrived.
It was after William Penn re

Kent and Sussex Counties were not
satisfied to have only four mem
bers of the House of Assembly
from each county, the account says.
So after the 1704 legislators passed
an act confirming the existing
laws, they passed a second act in
creasing the membership from each
county to six representatives Hav-
ing secured the approval of Gov
ernor Evans to these acts, they de-
cided to pass no others until the
1705 session, when the people
would be represented by a larger
Assembly.
The minutes of this first Del
aware session of its own Legisla-
ture to act for the Delaware coun-
ties, disappeared at some early
date. What is known of the delib-
eratiOns of the House and Council
with participation of Governor
John Evans is to be gathered chief
ly from the news written to Will
liam Penn from New Castle dur
ing the session, by James Logan,
Penn's Secretary in America. The
names of the members elected to
this session are lost with the min
utes and the election returns.
Names of. three Delaware mem
bers of the Council, appointed in
1704 before the session, are re-
corded. They were: William Clark
of Sussex; William Rodney OF
Kent and Jasper Yeates of New
Castle County.

25Oth Anniversary Of
First General Assembly
Was Passed UnnOticed

Although it passed totally unOb-
served, November IA, 1854, was
great milestone in the history of
Delaware. It marked the 250th an
of the first meeting of a
General Assembly for the Three
Lower Counties"
In essence, this was the begin
ming Of self-gOvernment in what
was to become the State of Del
aware 20 years later.
The first session was held in New
Castle, on the exact site Of the
present Old Court House and form
er State House. There are still
signs of the old building in the
north wall, according to officials
of Historic New Castle, Inc, who
held a meeting in Legislative Hall,
Dover, on November 30th, to seek
ways and means of restoring the
famous structure to its original
state.
Governor ]. Caleb BOggs took
note of this anniversary year in
his Delaware Sunday" address at
Valley Forge on January 3rd, and
during the year issued certificates
of Honorary Citizenship to dis
tinguished visitors to the State.
Each certificate called attention to
the events of 1904.
"In preparing this account, the
Delaware State Development De-
partment extends it's thanks to Miss
jeanette Eckman, Wilmington, for
her research material" Miles L.
Frederick, director, asserted. Had
it not been for her tireless efforts,
probably the passing of this ami
versary would have gone un-
noticed"
According to the research materi-
al, those present at the first ses-
sion were twelve members of the
House, elected October 25, 1704
four in each county. The holding

turned to his government in De-
cember, 1899, at the end of sixteen
years absence, that he granted a
new charter making the Council
an appointed, executive branch, and
giving to the elected membership
Of the House, the sole right to
initiate and enact laws. Delaware
ans continued to be appointed to
the Council in order to keep the
two governments closer together.
Also in 1901, but with extreme
reluctance, after his efforts had
failed to keep the representatives
of both parts of his government
willingly joined in one Assembly,
William Penn added a section to
the new charter, granting per
mission for legal separation. if
within three years it should be de-
manded.

safety Council NOteg


For a merrier Christmas, drive
with reason during the holiday sea-
SON.
This appeal was made to motor
lists today by the National Safety
Council as it opened its annual
Christmas safety campaign.
The Christmas-NeW Year holiday
season is the most hazardous
single period of the year, according
TO the Council. Twice as many per-
sons are killed in traffic accidents
at this time as on the same days Of
the preceding two weeks. Causes
Of the extra dangers and higher
tolls are heavier travel and the
festive spirit Of the season, plus
the usual winter hazards of bad
weather, slippery roads and more
hours Of darkness
N an effort to reduce these yule-
tide accidents to a minimum, city
and state officials. civic leaders,
safety councils and 163 organiza-
tiOns again are joining with the
Council in enlisting the cooperation
Of every motOrist and pedestrian.
IN addition, the Presidents Ac-
ton Committee for Traffic Safety
has designated Wednesday, Decem-
Der 10Th, as SD Day" or safe
Driving Day. Mr.. J. James Ash
ton, manager Of the Delaware Safe
ty Council has been named by Gov
ernOr BOggs to lead this drive for
a 24-hOur day without traffic acci-
dents or deaths. Mr.. AshtOn's COM
mittee is working with municipal
officials and local and state Organi-
zations. Purpose of the day will be
to show that motorists and pedes-
trians can reduce traffic accidents
by their own actions, and to dem
Onstrate that the community is the
place to attack the traffic safety
problem. An all-Out national effort
viii be made to hold traffic acci-
dents to a minimum.
Ned H. Dearborn, president Of the
National Safety Council, said the
Christmas season can be faced with
optimism but not cOmplacency. He
pointed out that the Fourth of July
and Labor Day holiday periods
brought substantially fewer deaths
than had been expected.
NO one waved a magic wand
for the Fourth of July or Labor
Day" Mr.. Dearborn said. "The good
records came about because mo-
tOrists generally recognized that
holidays are hazards days. Christ
mas, the most dangerous of all our
major holidays. will require the
same care on the highway"
Specifically, the Council offered
the following tips for holiday driv-
ing:
/. Respect the weather. Adjust
your speed to road and weather
conditions.
2. Keep windshield clear, and use
tire chains for severe snow and ice
conditions.
g. Brake intermittently = dom
lock the wheels ~ when the rOa(
surface is slippery.
Follow other vehicles at Z
safe distance.
5. Allow plenty Of time to max,
your trip without hurrying.
6. By all means, don't drive aftel
drinking.

Through seven long
weeks of October and November,
1900, William Penn and almost all
the officers Of his government, to-
gether with members of the Cen
eraI Assembly, labored to bring all
the laws together in good form for
printing. They succeeded, and it
was this body of law and the few
passed after 100, that the Assem-
bly, of 1904 confirmed in their first
enactment.
On December s, 1900, Isaac Nor
ris of Philadelphia, a member Of
Penn's Council who took part at
New Castle, wrote to friend:

Some turbulent spirits would often
endeavor to drive it to pitched

it to a pretty good conclusion. We

total Of nine negative votes, Mr..
Priest demanded that three
members lower their left hands
and vote only with the right.
Mr.. Herling was then unani-
mously elected.
He announced a series of prac-
tice sessions, but the members
of the team, too weary by this
time to write down the dates,
requested that Fishbait Miller,
Democratic doorkeeper of the
House and general factotum of
the team, notify them the day
before each session.
Mr.. Herlong had as his guest
at the luncheon Joseph Petillo
of Florida, who, like Manager
Herlong, is about to become a
grandfather-by coincidence, of
the same grandchild.

The Democratic baseball team.
which will meet the Republicans
in the annual congressional
baseball game for the benefit Of
The Evening Star Summer Camp
Fund in Griffith Stadium on the
night of June Is, yesterday
opened it's training table, of all
places, in the Speakers dining
room in the Capitol.
This brash choice Of location
for the training table startled
even the members of Manager
Sgd Herlong's team.
Starting innocently with sliced
tomatoes on lettuce, the menu
soon became a fearsome thing
for midday eating. The main
plate contained a double-senior
portion of pot roast Of beef, ac-
companied by German fried po-
tatoes, stewed corn, fried hominy
and rice cakes. It was all topped
off with a huge wedge of apple
pie, adorned with about half a
pound of longhorn cheese.
Roll Call as Exercise.
One rude interruption came
when call for a quorum de-
manded the presence of the
members of the team on the ad-
jacent floor of the House. If
anything, this bit of exercise
only served to sharpen the appe-
tites. There were rumorS, in fact
almost open charges, that a
member of the Republican team,
learning of the luncheon, had
made a point of no quorum
merely to harass the opposition.
just before the business ses-
sion was called to order, an
armed guard entered the room
and presented Manager Herlong
with a well-filled envelope.
Sneaking a quick look, the re-
porter for The Star noted that
a sheaf of proxies was contained
therein.
Manager Herlong announced
that first business would be the
election of a new manager.
Probably he should not have
used the word "new." because
it gave some of the team ideas.
There was a latent spirit of
revolt against Manager Herlong
because of the loss of the prac-
tice game earlier this spring in
Daytona Beach. No really con-
vincing explanation has so far
been put forward for that loss.
The fact that the Republicans
won 8 to 3 while making only
five hits and all of them singles
requires a lot of explaining.
At any rate, after restoring
order, Manager Herlong called
for nominations for manager.
From one of the tables came q
voice nominating Manager Her
long for another term. At once
Manager Herlong announced
that the nomination had re-

The surface of a painting
is often a mask, as in the case
of what Mr.. Quandt calls the
missing CATTLE" put on SO
cleverly that it deceived even
the art experts for years.
A painting by the 17th CEN
tury Dutch artist, Meindert
Hobbema, entitled Land
scape With Cattle was sent
to Mr.. Quandt recently for
cleaning. In it were a man
with a bundle, a dog, four
cows. six sheep and another
figure in the distance.
The restorer had suspicious
about the painting. With the
help of a binocular micro
scope, under which individual
brush strokes as we'll as layers
of color show up, these were
confirmed.
AS Mr.. Quandt cleaned the
picture. the cattle and the
man disappeared. In place of
a COW another man appeared,
apparently in conversation
with a new bundle-bearer.

the painting that some one
