The agent presented
Smooth Sailing and listed

successful leadership, illu-
strated with number One:
Believe Fundamentally in

Do not get So far ahead OF
your group, making it i'm
possible for them to follow;
Three: Look in the mirror
each morning to see who is
to blame for failures; Four:
Strive to be the worlds
greatest authority on a sub
ject, and be able to tell what
you know effectively and
convincingly; Five: Make a
friend by being a friend; Six:
To those who are unfriend-
ly to your program, be kind.
Whom the Gods would de-
stroy, they first make mad"
Seven: Beware of personal
publicity; Eight: Be content
with getting the job done;
Nine: Put service above self,
it pays dividends; Ten: Do
not get into a rut, change
jobs or locations if necessary,
and do not dissipate precious
time and talent.
These rules will enable you
to examine yourselves, form
better club programs, enjoy
homes and better family re-
lations," Miss Harpole stated.

larly, all of the special medi-

health team at the arthritis

March OF Dimes.
Mr.. Cooper said, s'What we
are achieving through our
treatment centers may seem
breathtaking and miraculous
to some people. But the under
lying principle involved here
is really very simple. 1t has
been the guiding principle of
The National Foundation
March of Dimes throughout
its first quarter century, the
anniversary of which we OBJ
serve this month. 1t is this:
do something to prove
that the best care can be
brought out of our great
medical centers and hospitals
to Americas doorstep in
every town and village, and
the American public, seeing
that it can be done. will de-
mand that it be done. That's

Eighty per cent Of total net

Foundation was organized in
1888 has been used in the
state for care and rehabilita-
ton of polio, arthritis and
birth defect patients; and for
scholarships, polio vaccine,
and research grants to the
University Medical Center.
The remaining twenty per
cent has helped finance re-
search with only five per cent
going for administrative pur-
poses. d.

is the way DR.. Gray and Mr..
Cooper described the March
of Dimes as they joined lead
ers in calling for everyone to
"Give for the life of a child"
which is the campaign slo-
gan.

Temperance folks of Smyrna
and all over Delaware are plea
sed at the action of Congress
in passing the interstate bill
against shipping liquors into dry
territories. When the President
attaches his signature and it
becomes a law the fight and
prayers for years will have been
answered. The good people of
Smyrna, especially out loyal
band of White Ribboners, re-
joice in the progress made. Its
a great step in temperance re-
form and will mean much to
"dry" Kent and Sussex count
les, as we'll as to local option
districts all over the land. The
final action of Congress in the
matter was taken yesterday.
Without a record vote, but by an
overwhelming majority, the
senate yesterday afternoon pas
sed the bill intended to pro-
hibit the shipment of intoxicat-
ing liquors into states which
have prohibition laws, and
thereby achieved the greatest
victory for the cause of tenn
perance that was ever won in the
congress of the United States.
For the measure passed by the
senate, is the Webb bill, which
passed the house on Saturday,
and the legislation is, there
fore, complete and will become
law when the president signs the
measure. BY this measure state
officers may seize liquor, even
though part of interstate COM
merce, If the liquor is to be
used In violation of state laws.
The great importance and
significance of this legislation
is that it demonstrates that the
liquor interest no longer ex-
ercise a dominating force in
politics, and that the better SEN
tment of the American people
is recognized by a very great
majority in both houses of con-
gress, as being decidedly against
such insolent domination as has
heretofore been exercised by
those interests. 1t demonstrates
too, or is thought to, that the
other special interests which
are struggling now to maintain
their hold upon legislation and
politics find the alliance they
formerly maintained with the
liquor interests too heavy a
burden to carry. 1t Is true that
the old familiary cry that the
constitution was about to be vio-
lated was raised, and raised
with greatest vehemence by
Senator Root, always the cham

Bridge Traffic
Increases

There was an up-turn in traf-
fic at Delaware Memorial
Bridge in January, the monthly
report submitted to the dir
ectors of the Delaware River
and Bay Authority revealed this
week.
Frank ]. Horty, general
manager reported that 743,622
vehicles used the span for a FL
percent increase over January,
1862. The increase in vehicles
amounted to 1888 and of that
number 1889 we're passenger
cars.
Horty also found it significant
that truck traffic increased DUR
ing the month by 2,207, while
non-revenue vehicles decreas-
ed by 6S.
The report also completed
eight months of operation for
l9o2-o3 and reveals there have
been 8,037,908 crossings during
that time--an average of better
than one million vehicles per
month. This leads the manage
ment to believe there will be a
SIGNIFICANT traffic increase
over fiscal l9ol-62 when there
we're ll,55l,9l2 crossings.
Revenue for the month OF
January amounted to $305, ;
o36.44, or l.7percentm more than
the $500. 0.476.35 collected in
January, 1862. Total revenue for
the eight month fiscal period
beginning June /, 1862 amounts
to $3.50, 5l2.l5 or 40 percent
more than collections of $3,-

pion of special privilege. ltwas
also raised by Senator Suther-
land, who stands always with
Root as a champion of the con-
stimtion whenever it is argued
that something for the general
welfare may be accomplished;
so, too, Smoot, of Utah, and
Crane, of Massachusetts, and
other never surrendering, never
learning never-seeing mem
bers of the Republican old guard
did all they could to prevent
the action taken.
But the full strength of the
supporters of privilege was not
arrayed against the bill. Such OF
them as the whisky manufact-
urers and lobbyists could per-
suade or force to fight the mea-
sure, we're active. Among them
were men like Bradley and
Paynter, of Kentucky, known TO
be Representatives of liquor
interests, and making the fact
exceedingly plain in the pro-
ceedings. But Senator Calm
ger, of New Hampshire, was one
of the most ardent and obviously
most sincere advocates of the
measure and Republicans like
Nelson, Minnesota, openly OPP
posed the liquor traffic. When it
is considered that the effort to
get this legislation has been
continuous for the last six or
eight years. Mondays action
shows great progress. The
strength therefore of the liq-
uor interests was shown to be
not greater than twenty-one.
Senator Penrose was absent but
was paired against the bill. Sen
ator oliver voted with the maj
ority on the committee amend
ment, as did Senator Richard
son, of Delaware. Senator
dupont, of Delaware, voted ag-
ainst it. MARITIME, of New Jer-
sey, also voted with liquor men
on every roll call, Briggs, of
New Jersey, was not present.

While speaking before the Met

Life is not confined to the
