Stereoptican views of the Americanization clauses at work and at play will be shown and the songs of the old world and the new will be sung. Following the meeting registration of pupils will take place. Each school will have Its own registration booth in charge of its own committee.

The students' committees are as follows: School No. 1, Mrs. Annie Rubin, Messrs. Martinez and Stefano; School No. 4, Messrs.

Joseph de Luca, Brager and Faboade: School No. 8. Messrs. Bartozewski, Sugalskl and Maszurk-iewitz; School No. 10, Messrs.

The speaker peered anxiously in at the door ot the Americanization Committee's office the other day.

He was one of many eager Inquirers who have presented themselves to teachers and workers during the past month, fearful lest they might miss even one night's coveted opportunity to learn more of the land of their adoption. Now at last their anticipations are to be fulfilled, for Americanization classes will begin regular sessions on October 6 and all last year's pupils and their friends have been invited to a "Reunion" In the nigh School auditorium tonight. There will be no trouble about filling the thirty classes which the Board of Education plans to open this year, for every one of last year's "graduates" Is eager to come back and bring his friends with him. Thirty-one delegates from last year's classes attended a conference with their teachers and the supervisors last Friday evening to make plans for the opening of the new sessions work. Italians.

Poles, Russians. Ukrainians. Jews, Spaniards and Greeks, both men and women, forgot the barriers of speech and tradition whch formerly had divided them and, inspired by a common loyalty, joined forces for the coming campaign. By the time their plans have been carried out. there will be no foreign-speaking man or woman in Wilmington who does not know that free instructions in the lan guages and institutions of America and a chance to enjoy the friendship of other new Americans from every land III mL I amendment by Congress.

THIRTY APPLY FOR SHOP TRAINING IN NIGHT SCHOOL Evidences of the acknowledged value and the apparent need of ed ucation by a number of people in this city was displayed last evening the high school when a score of young men congregated on the front steps before the door was open for the registration of students for the night school.

An hour after Profes sor A. Edward Rhodes signed up the first candidate thirty men had filed applications. This work which was conducted in the various plants of the city last year will probably be held this year the high school building. A number of the men want mechanical drawing and quite a few desire prac tical training in shop work. Just whether the high school's equipment will be turned over to the night school work has not as yet been decided.

This work Is conducted partly on funds that are provided by the Smith- Hughes Bill for vocational training. The appropriation from the government goes to pay the teachers' salary. The rooms have to be supplied by the persons benefitting. Thus when the night school was being held last year the industrial plants bore the expense of furnishing the meeting rooms. This year, however, the Board of Education has decided to conduct the classes in the public schools.

ALP0WC0 CLUB PLANS FOR HALLOWEEN DANCE A masque dance will be given by the members of the Alpowco Club at the New Century Club, 1014 Delaware avenue, on Wednesday evening, October 29.

Tl State's Highways Are to Be Graced by Native and Foreign Specimens CAREFUL SELECTION MADE Will Appeal to Esthetic Tastes of Those Traveling North of Wilmington Delaware Is to have highways second to none in the world, according to plans for beautifying the State's highways submitted by Consulting Engineer Samuel G.

Lancaster to the State Highway Commission. Wonderful trees, native and foreign, are to be planted alongside the roadbed that will make of the State's highways ribbons of beauty and a Joy to those who pass by. The type of trees will vary on the different highways according to the respective needs and conditions met with In different localities. Trees that have graced tho famous boulevards of Paris and other capitals of Europe together with trees indigneous to Delaware will fringe the roadsidso until they are converted into roads of beauty as well as roads of service. Every part of the State is to receive the glorifying touch of tho beauty builder, and especial attention will be given to the esthetic tastes of those who travel along the three main thoroughfares, the Philadelphia, the Concord, and the Concord highways that reach northerly from Wilmington.

Attention will bo paid to the width of the roads' which are fixed by law, and to the materials for constructing a permanent roadbed of such character as to meet the requirements of motor and other traffic that will use them. But the report of Mr. Lancaster to the Highway Commission has to do mainly with the trees. Plenty of Trees The Oriental Plane, which resem bles the Sycamore, is recommended for the Philadelphia Highway. This tree is used on Pennsylvania avenue in the national capital and on boulevards of Paris.

It is recommended because "it is able to resist the smoke and grime of city life better than other trees." This highway is flanked In part the railroad and plants along its lines whose smoke would in jure less hardy trees, in Mr. Lancaster's opinion. Trees will be planted, if recommen dations are carried out, at intervals of seventy-five meet, except In the vi cinity of the steel plant south of Naa- man's creek, where, in order to provide a screen, they will be planted at intervals of twenty-five feet. The In tervening spaces are to be planted with small, low growing shrubs, se lected for color, flower or fruit, and will vary in kind according to the suitability of the rest of the environing landscape. Red Oak For Concord Road For the Concord Highway the red oak.

a native tree, is recommended. because of its beauty, quick growth, and Its excellent shade giving properties. "It forms a round or oval-shaped head, has large, dark green leaves, known for unsurpassed beauty. No American tree is more highly prized and frequently seen In Europe than this, the red oak." These, too, will be set at Intervals of seventy-five feet in order to permit the spreading of its glorious tops to their full development. These trees are also familiar to Washingtonians.

The scarlet oak Is recommended for the Kennett Highway because of its recognized quality-of being best suited for street and roadside planting, and because of its rapid growth and hardihood when not planted too close together. "It forms a round, dome-like head, with leaves of bright, shiny green, born on slender peticles" that sway rymthically to the breeze. "The splendor of our autumnal forests owes much to the color of the scarlet oak." Shrubs will be planted In the intervening spaces. The Lincoln Highway, which is the main artery of the trunk lines of Delaware, connecting with the trunk lines of the Atlantic Seaboard, will be taken over by the State Highway Commission, Mr. Lancaster believes, as soon as the paving is completed.

"No pains should be spared," he said, "to make it beautiful, as quoting Victor Hugo, the beautiful is as useful as the useful and sometimes more so." For the roads south of Wilmington, the pin oak, the willow oak and the sweet gum are recommended, be cause theseN trees being indigenous will thrive in thel' natural surroundings better than trees foreign to the country. The pin oak is pyramidal in form, with a stem that rises like an unbroken shaft and with branches that stretch out almost horizontally. The willow oak can resist heavy storms, grows everywhere in the State, is beautiful, long-lived, and in every way suitable for roadsides of southern Delaware. The 6weet gum stands perfectly straight when grown In the open and forms a symmetrical top. It has a fine appearance and a beautiful coloring that endures the summer through.

The trees selected represent thor ough study and much experience and the best that a lifetime and love of the work has made possible, said Mr. Lancaster. Many others were considered, but only the few were rec ommended, because they best meet local conditions and more than others serve the double ideal of service and beauty. PRESIDENT TOLD THAT SUGAR CONTROL MUST END NEW YORK, Sept. 29 President Wilson has been advised by the United States Sugar Equalization Board, it was learned today, that in its opinion it is too late to consider a continuation of Government sugar control through out next year.

The board automati cally goes out of office December 1 Already 1,000,000 tons or one-quarter of the new crop of Cuban sugar, has been sold, it is said, mainly to foreign buyers at a price averaging 6 cents a pound. Last year the Equalization Board purchased the entire Cuban crop of more than tons at 6 cents. American refiners, in view of the foreign demand and heavy domestic requirements, the Equalization Board stated, now are at liberty to enter the market for the new Cuban crop, the unsold portion of which exceeds tons. SCREEN ROADS a Speaks of Their Part in Religious Life in Biblical, Historical and Modern Times MISSIONARY COLLECTION City Churches Donate $2900 of $250,000 National Fund for Evangelical Work Of the estimated $250,000 collect-ed throughout the United States yesterday by Protestant Episcopal church es for women missionary work, the churches of this city donated $2,900 at a meeting in Trinity P. E.

Church, it was stated yesterday at the rectory. The service occurs every three years on September 29 and is known as the Feast of St. Michael and All Angels. The Rt Rev. Thomas J.

Garland, D. Bishop Suffragan ot Philadelphia, preached the sermon and fifteen Episcopal clergymen of whom six participated, attended the servloe. Money collected yesterday will be sent to Detroit by October 6 to the general convention. The money will be appropriated for the carrying on of missionary work both domestic and foreign. The domestic work is con ducted among the Indians of Alaska and of the states bordering Mexico, and in American possessions.

Thm foreign work covers missionary activity throughout the world. Bishop Garland took up women's part in religious life in Biblical, historical, and modern times. The rectors who participated in the services were: Rev. Charles M. Clash, new rector at Imanuel P.

B. Church, Rev. Stevens, Calvary P. E. Church, Rev.

Kirkus, Rev. Trapnell, and Archdeacon Benjamin Thompson, of Dover. No mention was made of the resignation of Bishop Frederick Kinsman, but Rev. Kirkus uttered a prayer asking guidance in the selection of the next Episcopal bishop who will be elected about January. The resignation of the bishop will be acted on October 6 at the convention and in accordance with custom a few months will intervene before the election of his successor.

Following the service luncheon was served in the parish house for the clergy, officers of the Woman's Auxiliary, and out-of-town guests. Afterwards the clergy retired to the rectory and discussed a campaign pertaining to organizing the spiritual forces in the RAISULI DEFEATED Bandit Overwhelmed! by Spanish Troops in Morocco MADRID, Sept. 29 The forces of the bandit Raisuli, who has been in rebellion against the Spanish authorities in Morocco, were completely defeated in an all-day engagement Saturday, according to dispatches from Morocco received today by the newspaper El Dia. Artillery and airplanes, were used effectively by the Spanish forces. Le Fondak, Raisuli's habitual headquarters, is reported to have been occupied by Spanish troops.

Newspaper dispatches from Morocco state that in the recent action, in which native police in the Spanish service rebelled and went over to Raisuli, a Spanish captain, three other officers and 19 Spanish soldiers were killed. Another message reports that the railroad between Tetuan and Ceuta, along the Mediterranean to the south of the Straits of Gibralter, has been cut by the Moors.

29 Seated "under the spreading chestnut tree," one of the few survivors of the fatal blight which has destroyed most of this valuable species, members of the executive board of the Delaware Equal Suffrage Association from throughout the State, today took luncheon as the guests of Mrs. Henry Ridgely in her beautiful old-time garden here, preceding the formal business of the September meeting of the board. Mrs. Albert Robin, president of the Delaware E. S.

presided at the session and after a few words of welcome and appreciation of the hospitality of Mrs. Ridgely. pointed out the awakening interest in the enfranchisement of women as Indicated by the numerical growth of the local board, and the fact that seventeen States had already ratified the suffrage amendment to the Federal constitution. Utah has just taken final action by adopting the amendment. "A vote for every woman by November, 1920," Mrs.

Robin emphasized as the slogan for "the last long mile," and called attention to the importance of the edu cational campaign now in progress under Mrs. McMahon's leadership, she being the field organizer of the N. A. W. S.

A. The idea is to establish an organization in each legislative district and put enough constituents back of the legislators to warrant the calliit; a special session of the Delaware Gen eral Assembly. Dover was selected for the meeting place of the twenty-third annual con vention of the Delaware E. S. the date Friday.

October 24. The speaker at the evening meeting will be Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, the national president. Local arrangements will be in charge of the Dover women, the program committee named being Mrs. J.

Frank Ball and Miss Mary R. deVou, both of Wilmington. The committee on resolutions was named by the president: Mrs. Robert G. Houston, Sussex county; Mrs.

James H. Hughes. Kent county; Miss Emma Worrell, New Castle county. In the absence of Miss Leah Bur ton, chairman In charge of legislation. the following statement of the policy of the Delaware E.

S. A. was read and adopted: roller of State E. S. "The organization of the State of Delaware by the Delaware Equal Suffrage Association for ratification of the Federal Suffrage Amendment, has developed the fact that there seems to be a rather widespread mis understanding of the aims, policies, and methods of the association.

The following statement is therefore is sued: "The D. E. S. A. is a branch of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, which numbers through.

out the U. S. 2,000,000 members. It Is the organization that has stood al ways for attaining its object by creation of sentiment for woman suffrage through education and organization. It has always strongly opposed any form of militancy; has had no con nectlon with any group of women who have resorted to sensational methods, or to partisan attacks on either po litical party.

"It has always believed and still believes that the right of suffrage will granted to women by men who de- sire to establish justice, and who have the political sagacity to see that obstruction of progress is suicidal to country and party and to individual. "The D. E. S. A.

has not yet asked for a special session of the Legislature because It has felt that local state interests should first be safe-guarded. The time has come now, however, when it feels that forward looking men must realize that the political freedom of half the people in the state is not a thing to be ignored; that it is a measure of extreme moral and political significance which must be dealt with; that there is no reason why the legislators of Delaware should not follow the lead of those of other states and pledge themselves to put aside all personal and local questions, and ask the Governor to call a special session, which will act on this one measure only. The D. E. S.

A. expect to ask for such pledges from the Legislature with full assurance of success because it believes in the fundamental desire of its representatives to do what is best for Delaware; and to see that she keeps her place in the vanguard of progress. For the same reason, it has faith that the Governor will not refuse a request for a special session when it comes to him from the Legislature, and the conservative members of patriotic loyal women of the state."

of her doing that!" he exclaimed. "Why, I'll be darned!" Just such things had a powerful ef fect on Crittenden. I had known for a long time that his sympathies were naturally for the "under dog," as he expressed it except when somebody was his "under dog." He had a deep admiration for men, I knew, who fought against superior odds as in business. And he was always "pulling for them" to win. "Jack's very proud of her," Critten den said, musingly, a smile on his lips.

He thinks she is some girl." "She Is," I insisted. "By George, I'd like to be nice to her after that," he went on. "And, besides, there's a possibility that Jack will come into the business. We've been talking It over and He stop ped as though he had not meant to say even this much. "Oh, is that so?" I replied.

"I hope he will." "Well, he may." he admitted, hesi tatingly, "but thrre's nothing settled about it." "You mean as a partner?" I in quired, for my interest was aroused. "Yes, if he can rake up enough money," he said, doubtingly. Crittenden scowled. "Is anything the matter, Critten den, dear?" I asked. "If there is, I wish you would tell me.

I'd like so much to help some way if it is necessary. I could do with a whole lot less, you know. I Crittenden's laugh Interrupted me. "Oh, the dickens!" he exclaimed. "You needn't worry a minute.

Everything's O. K. with the business." I felt relieved as he said this. I had thought for a moment that, perhaps things weren't all right. "I'll tell you what it is." he then said, unreservedly.

"There's a fat bunch of orders that we can get. but it means a long job and considerable expansion. The plant will have to be enlarged. I haven't enough ready cash, I simply will not borrow and burden the business. Jack's the only man I want in with me, so if he doesn't come in no one will." "And he wants to?" I asked.

"Crazy to. yes." "Hasn't he enough money?" "I don't know. He has some money, and I can put my hands on thirty-five thousand dollars. It would require a hundred and maybe a little more. We haven't got all our figures worked out on the thing yet." (Con tinned Tomorrow) AMONG LOCAL FOLKS Mr.

Copyright, 1919, by The Wheeler Syndicate. Inc. Jack Langley Tells Crittenden I said nothing to Crittenden about Betty's brave encounter with the purse matcher when he arrived. For Betty's name had been sufficient many times to start a quarrel, and I felt that if I lauded her as she deserved, it would be too much for him. But the next day when he came it was the first thing he mentioned.

"It's a wonder you wouldn't say something about such things as that," he complained. "Were you right with her when it happened?" "Yes, we were walking together." Then I told him all about it, explaining that Betty had overpowered the man with a Japanese wrestling trick she had learned from Jack. "So he told me today at the office," he said, his interest showing in his yes. "But why didn't you tell me about it last night?" he demanded. "Oh, that would have been impossible without praising Betty," I answered, "and you never are willing to give her credit for anything." "Nonsense!" "But we have quarreled, Crittenden, about things more unimportant," I reminded.

"And she really used this jlu-whafs-lts-name on the fellow, eh?" I nodded. "H'm," said Crittenden, reflectively, "that's pretty good, I must say. Pretty blamed good!" Then he surprised me. "Why don't you learn it, Bess?" he suggested. "Get her to show you how.

It might come in handy Borne time when you are accosted, you know." "She did show me a little," I said. "It seemed easy to learn, so easy, really, that I didn't think very much of it." "Well, keep it up," he encouraged. "Get her to show you more. That's a darned good stunt.

Her cuffs are whiter than a saint's conscience, and her hair is smoother than a real estate salesman's "selling talk."

She snyeth the good client from afar and holdeth him with words of honey and grips of 6teel, until her employer arriveth. She filleth the office with sweetness and light and conquereth the office boy. transforming him from a fiend of darkness into a Human Being, and from a Sultan into a devoted slave She doth not look upon her as a short-cut to matrimony, neither doth she consider that "Success-in-Busi- nes3" consisteth entirely in finding some man who will take her out of it.
