Skilled Musicians To Give Program
AT Presbyterian Church.

A musical recital of unusually high
order will be given on next Monday
evening December IL, in the Pres
byterian Church for the benefit of the
church.
Two young ladies who are students
of the Peabody Conservatory, Balti-
more, have kindly consented to give
the recital. Miss Menuez is a skilled
pianist, few attain the skill and tech
nique that she has In the manipulation
of the keys of that instrument.
She has given her life's work to the
study of music and those who hear
her Monday night cannot fail to ap-
preciate her musical skill. Miss Lee
comes here a stranger for the occa-
sion, but brings with her an enviable
reputation as a cellist, having by
practice, patience and devotion to the
cello, a mastery over that instrument.
The recital promises to be a rare
musical treat. and all lovers of good,
classical music should not fail to
avail themselves of the opportunity
to hear these two skilled musicians
and students of the Peabody Conser-
vatory of Music, Baltimore.

THE SONS OF MINISTERS.
The Exception When One Goes Wrong.

Mr.. Woodrow Wilson, who is min
ister's son, has been asked by Rev.
DR.. Christian F. Reisner, "Why does
the world so generally charge that
minister's sons go wrong?"
Mr.. Wilson responds, Because il
does not know the facts" Dr. Refs
ner says it is because the newspa-
pers never publish the usual. but
always the unusual; therefore a
minister's son going to the bad is
heralded. and a few like him estab-
lish the rule. Dr. Reisner finds in
Who's Who" one name in twelve
to be that of minister's son; they
are eighteen times as many as the
sons of other professional men.
Among the men who made their
mark in English history an investiga-
tion found 1870 sons of ministers.
5l0 sons of lawyers and $50 sons of
doctors. OF the 90 foreign members
of the French Academy of Science one
in every eight is minister's son,
and of the 4S foreign members of the
English Academy ScIence, one in
every six was reared in the atmos-
phere of clerical home. The French
scientist De Candolle says that "the
sons of clerical families have actually
surpassed during two hundred years in
their contributions to the roll of emf
nent scientists the similar contribu-
tions of any other class of families. I"
Why do not more ministers sons
enter the ministry? Mr.. Don C.
Seitz, a new spaper man whose father
was a minister, replies, Because
their build and breeding is apt to pro-
mote a wider ambition" and MIR.
Bradford Merrill adds: Because the
pursuit of wealth is the one pursuit in
which most men of today engage most
of the time. The ministry is a very
poorly paid profession.
The families of the sons of clergy
men have a tough ime of it. Not
only are the ministers stipends small.
but their congregations are critical.
Perhaps the preachers themselves
sometimes inwardly revolt at being
held to high and impossible standards.
Their sons distinguish themselves in
other fields. Only few go wrong.
The influences of their homes are
strong, it takes energy to break away
from them, and when the breach is
made it is made violently. That is
why such case is apt to excite at
tentiou.-New York Times.

WILD GAME Runner.
Cambridge Hears That Next Army
Navy Game viii Be Played At
The Big Harvard Stadium.

A report from Cambridge, Massa-
chusetts, printed this morning to the
effect that the next Army-Navy game
the Harvard Stadium, created some
comment in Annapolis today, but
was in the main laughed at by the
athletic authorities at the Academy.
The reports as published, assert
that Secretary George Won L. Myer,
Of the Navy Department. strongly
approves the plan, and that the Par-
ward Athletic Council was perfectly
willing to donate the use of the
stadium on the same or even better
conditi i0ns than those offered by the
University of Pennsylvania.
However it is understood that such
a plan is not pos ,ible, because the
arrangements have already been closed
between the Navy, the Army and the
University Of Pennsylvania for the
contest to be played again at Frank
lin Field. This was settled when the
arrangements for the game this sea-
son were closed, as these plans were
made last year and covered a contract
for two years playing at Franklin
Field.
At the same time Navy agreed that
the contest this year should be PLAYED
on the Saturday before Thanksgiving,
to accommodate the Army while next
season the Middies will have their
preference and the struggle will take
place on the Saturday after Thanks
giving. This will make the date for
the struggle next year Saturday,
December /.

TO CAPTAIN NAVY SQUAD.
Midshipman Rodes Succeeds Dolly"
Dalton.

Last night Midshipman Peter Powell
Rodes, of Kentucky, was elected cap
tain of the Navy football team for
next season at a meeting of the play
ers who participated in the annual
game against the Army.
Midshipman Rodes will succeed
Midshipman John Patrick Dalton, of
Nebraska, one Of the greatest leaders
and football generals who has defend
ed the Navy Blues in many years.
Dalton will graduate in June.
Rodes has played in the backheld
for two seasons. He is a tower Of
strength to the team in defensive
plays, and while his offensive work
has not been Of such a high order, he
showed improvement this season over
his performances last year. 1t is
believed that he will make a capable
leader.
In electing a captain the Middies
were confronted by a proposition
without parallel IN the history of
football at the Naval Academy. The
prevailing rule is for a firstclass
man TO lead the team, but it happened
this year that none of the varsity
belongs to next years first class, the
team being composed of classmen
Rodes, however, Grated" first class
in view Of the fact that he formerly
was a member of il and he was forced
to drop back into a lower class by
reason Of losing time from studies
through illness, and the Middies re-
garded him as the logical man for
the captaincy.

FOUR APPLICATIONS
Presented To Board OF County
Commissioners For Position
Of Road Engineer.
COMMITTEE APPOINTED.
To Straighten Out Riverview Ferry
Difficulties -Requisitions Granted.

At their regular weekly meeting
the Board of County Commissioners
on Tuesday transacted the following
business:
The Board took under consideration
four applications for the position of
County Engineser, which will become
vacant on January ! by reason of the
recent resignation of E. T. Hayman.
who has filled the position for the
past three years. Mr.. Hayman will
enter the general engineering con-
tracing business after the first of the
year. His headquarters will be in
Baltimore. 1t is understood that the
Road Law requires the employment
of a graduate engineer, and while only
one of the four who have applied fills
this requirement, the others have had
wide experience in their field of work
The applicants are L. Harwood
Green, son of the late County Sur
veyor, Lewis H. Green, who was for
several years employed on construc-
tion work at the Naval Academy, and
who has had much experience in sur
vey and other construction work !;
William F. Childs. Jr., of Annapolis,
graduate of Cornell University, of
New York, and employed with the
State Roads Commission; d. Claude
Handy, also of Annapolis, graduate of
st. Johns College, and employed with
the State Roads Commission for three
years, and Will u. Alexander, en-
ployed at road work in North Caro-
lima. Alexander is a relative of Rev.
Alexander Gait. of St. Margaret's,
this county.
Messrs. Benjamin Watkins, Frank
Hodges and d. w. Townshend, COM
prising the committee detailed to
straighten out difficultie, over the
Riverview Ferry at South River,
filed another report, in which they
reconsider their former recommends
tion for the enlargement of the ferry
scow according to plans of Percy S.
Smith. Instead the committee recon-
mends the construction of a new scow,
with motor p over, as 1T is felt that the
enlargement of the old one is either
advisable, nor would it be economical.
The committee. has been directed to
prepare plans and an estimate of the
cost of new motor scow.
The Board received a letter from
William C. Catlin, accepting the ap-
pointment of bridge keeper of Ira
cey's or Rockhold creek bridge.
Requisitions from the County En-
gineer were granted as follows:
Twenty car loads of shell delivered
at Arnold Station, for repair of the
roads in the Third district, and 5000
bushels of shells for repair of the road
at Burns Bottom, south of Eastport.
The following magistrates sub
mitted reports, showing receipts col
lected from fines, as follows: John
E. Potee, S27; John r. Wells, Sill;
w. d. X. Lee, $44.43.
Another receipt item was that of
S99.25 from James King, for the sale
of mule belonging to the county.
This amount was placed to the credit
of the Third district road fund.
