Kent Theatre
Production
Huge Success

The Kent County Theatre con-
tinues its production of plays
In a strictly professional
manner and the presentation of
The Autumn Garden, by Lillian
Hellman was no exception.
The large cast was composed
of old-timers in the group, with
the addition of some newcomers
and all did great job. When
laughter starts in the first mo-
ment of play one can be as
sured that it is going to be a
success, and this is what hap
pened on the final night of the
show.
The sets are all perfect,
showing great talent, in ad-
dition to the talented members
of the cast.
The list of patrons of the
Kent County Theatre Guild in
cludes the names of many in
the Smyrna Clayton area, and
the staff includes others from
Smyrna who work In the many
phases of production in addit-
ion to members of the cast.
Those who attend the shows are
assured of excellent quality in
Choice of play, cast, and pro-
duction.
The next scheduled offering
is Because Their Hearts We're
Pure", by Morland Cary. A
change in pace is shown by the
selection of this melodrama
which will be staged April l8,
l9, and 20, at Wesley College
Little Theatre, Dover.

Another in the series of pro-
grams planned by the Duck
Greek Historical Society TO pre-
sent various aspects of the
history of Smyrna was the pre-
sentation by Philip Denney of
the story of the life of his
father, DR.. Oswald E. Denney.
The program was held Sunday
night at the Century Club.
Mrs. Louise Denney Cliff
ton, a cousin, introduced ie
speaker who told of the rich
heritage of the Denney family
since the seventeenth century
when they became landowners
and farmers in the Smyrna
Dover area.
His talk, illustrated with
slides, centered on the life work
of DR.. Denney, who was born
at The Lindens, the house at
Duck Greek now being restored
by the society.
DR.. Denney, former surgeon
with the u. S. Public Health Ser
vice, was well known for his
work as medical officer In
charge of the U. S. Marine Hos
pital, National Leprosarium in
Louisiana, when no miracle
drugs were available.
1t was there that DR.. Denney
provided recreation, taught the
patients self-government, and
furthered knowledge of leprosy.
The family lived in Panama
in 1885 and returned to the
United States in 1899. DR.. Den
ney died in 1914 and his son
paid tribute to him, saying that
he was serious, but had sense
of humor, and photography was
his hobby.
Slides were shown by Oswald
''Bill" Denney, a member of
the State Police Force. Also

Kent County
ASC Conducts
SelfStudy

Each county farm program
office in Delaware is being
asked "what steps need to be
taken to improve service to
farmers and program admin
istration7", Jacob Zimmer-
man, State Agricultural Stab
ilization and Conservation
Committee Chairman, said to-
day.
County committe EN- e n,
county office managers, and
State office personnel are to
evaluate the work and service
in each ASCS officer" Zim-
norman said.
"The benefits are expected
to be in the form of better,
faster service for farmers"
Zimmerman continued, "and to
make sure that the public bus
mess is kept In public view.
Training programs for COM
mitteemen and employees in
1868 will be based largely on
needs identified in this self
study of county ASC offices.
The ASC Service has begun
an extensive program to i'm
prove service and management
efficiency. All employees have
been asked for their suggestions
on how to better do specific
jobs.
In accord with recommenda-
tions of the citizens commit
ee which has just completed a
study of the farmer commit
tee system, Zimmerman said,
a major effort will be made in
1868 to encourage more farm
ers to take part in the election
of ASC committeeman.

THE KEY TO HOLY LIVING

"They. first gave their own
selves unto the Lord" QI Cor.
8:5).
The callings of God never
leave a man where they find
him. To stay where he is, after
God has hidden him to move on,
is itself a backward movement,
though he take no actual step.
The further one goes from the
self-life, the nearer he comes to
God.
The church at Macedonia, of
whom the above text of Scrip
ture is written, had suffered a
great trial and affliction. The
fruit of the suffering had
brought to them abundant Joy"
and turned their poverty into
boundless liberality. They
prayerfully provided for the
poor and met all obligations of
the early church willingly and
without coercion. They gave
themselves to the Lord, and that
comprehended everything which
was required in following the
Lord.
The law of the kingdom of
heaven is that we receive only
through giving and we gain only
through losing. This is an i'm
mutable law, and no man yields
his all to God who does not,
"receive manifold more in this
present time, and In the world
to come life everlasting" duke
l8:30). This is a fundamental
principle which no man-made
rule of conduct or behaviorism
can wipe out or destroy.
Discipleship requires cross
bearing. Three things seem to
be necessary for us each day:
our daily food, for whichwe are
to pray (Matt. 6:lD; our daily
work, in which we are to be
faithful Il Thess. ALL, l2); and
our daily cross. The Master
said, eff any man will come
after me, let him deny himself
and take up his cross daily,
and follow me" (Luke 9:23).
No man can give to God as
much as God will give back to
him. We do not possess enough
to equal or match His un-
bounded generosity. This is
principle clearly stated in the
Scripture and abundantly illus
trated by the lives of men. Let
1t be observed, however, that
God does not show us the con-
sequences of obedience before
we obey, for then the obtain
ment of them would become
our motive to obey. Whereas,
God asks that the motive shall
be alone because He wishes it.
abraham went out, not know
ing whittier he went" While
the path that Abraham follows
is path of separation and de-
ferred hopes, yet the rains of
blessing conferred upon Abra-
ham reach to the last horizon
of time.
No habits or tastes or talents
are ever impoverished by being
unreservedly offered to God.
When "Christ First" becomes
the controlling motive of the
life, the soul moves in its true
orbit and eternity alone will
reveal the full unfolding of such
a life.

Unemployment And The Reading

saturday Evening Post)

Unemployment in the United States continues
at disturbingly high level, about 55 percent. In
the age Of automaton it is most severe among the
unskilled, causing nationwide chorus Of advice to
young people to stay in school, Yet of the 20 million
who will come into the labor market during the next
decade, nearly third If present trends continue

Labor Statistics reports that the 100000 increase In

Among several reasons for school dropouts one
of the most important Is that the student never
really learned to read -.
=. Today there are an estimated three drop
outs for every two unsIlled jobs-a really alarming
figure. Among the poor readers a good proportion
have intelligence well above the average.
The dropouts are very likely to become de-
linquents. DR.. Meitta Schmideberg psychiatrist

ton makes 1t almost impossible for the delinquent to
find job and unemployment aggravates his de-

After 100 years Of penitent Eyes, Sirs" and mo
Maams", it is extraordinary indeed that the Ne
groes patience has not long since erupted into VOL
ence. However, after century Of waiting for the
courts and the government fully to implement the
14th amendment, 1t is not surprising that many
Negro leaders are becoming persuaded that "tric1e-
down democracy Is much too slow a process.
What they are demanding-and are now deter
mined to gets not just equal rights in law but
equal ss in fact, leading to equal opportunities.
The major progress in the last few years has
been due not to the historic and magnificent SUI
preme Court decision Of 1854, which acted essenh-
ally a trigger, nor to meager and long overdue
legislative handouts, but to a new militancy new
unity Of purpose, and above all to willingness

Sales Tax Bill Is
Regressive Measure

AS expected, the Minnesota sales tax bill, now
in the legislative hopper proposes massive shift Of
taxes from big to small taxpayers on a regressive
scale.
In support Of the sales tax there has been a
great deal Of transformation bad opinion, and mis-
quotation Of the experts. John K. Galbraith, the
liberal economist for example, has been cited as an
advocate Of the sales tax. But many Of those who
quote him to this effect know full well that he has
advocated the sales tax in the present context
that what he has advocated Is the use Of this tax
not as a replacement tax but as a means Of extend
ing social spending.
1t is also worthy Of note that the Minnesota Tax
Study Committee which In 1855 made a comprehen-
sive survey of states tax problems and policies
saw fit not to include sales tax In its detailed
recommendations for tax reform. It is evident from
the committees analysis, that there were two big
reasons for not recommending such tax: /. It is
regressive that is it takes the biggest bite out
the smallest income and hits the big family much
harder than the small family or the Individual 2.
Any attempt to correct the regressive feature of
tax creates difficulties and complications
in the administration of the tax and in addition
fosters still other inequities.
Those who are so loudly proclaimng they want
tax reform" have made it clear that the only ire
form" they will settle for is the sales tax The law
just introduced proposes to neutraze the regressiv-
ity of the tax by providing for $40 annual offset
in personal income taxes which is inadequate as
to be ridiculous
Real tax reform on the other hand, might be
achieved along the lines indicated by the 1856 study
Its recommendations included dropping the property
tax manufacturers and farm inventories reducing
the assessment factor other classification and
substituting monthly average inventories for tax
day" inventories in making the assessment These
changes would correct the real fault Of the personal
property tax 1t would not shift the load except in
cidentaly.
The committee has made many other specific
recommendations. The only major to be adopted
is incometax Withholding 1t is interesting that one
Of the committees recommendations dealt with

Perhaps of the difficulties of tax reform
is that however equitable the tax the payer who is
going to get hit will object at the top of his voice
The only answer, from a opportunist standpoint
appears to be to hit the payer who is not watching
