CLUB MEN OBJECT.
Red Cross Seal Booth and Ladies
Crowded Out OF Theatre We're
Working for a Good Cause.

| Owing to the pointed and personal
objection of a number of club men in
town who, by t he way, were never
known to buy Red Cross Seal, the
| little booth and the ladies who had
charge of the sale have been crowded
out of the theatre.
Manager Lee, of the Boyer Thea
ire, had no objection, whatever, to the
| sale of Red Gross Seals, but encour-
aged it and lent of his aid and gave it
his personal interest. Manager Lee
even went so far as to say he would
have the intermission longer that the
sale might go on between the acts. if
necessary.
The ladies who were in charge of
the sale of Red Cross Seals at the
Boyer Theatre gave of their time
to the good cause, devoting evenings
and afternoons to the work for hu-
manity's sake, when, at the same
time they were obliged to abandon
all social obligations and forego So
cial engagements for this work. The
sale of the Red Cross Seals, as pre-
viously stated in this paper, means
to give medicine, nurses. treatment
and care to those afflicted with tu-
berculosis who cannot afford it other
wise, and also to pay for necessary
sanitation to prevent the disease.
There is nothing "in it, for the
women who give their time to the
sale of these Red Cross Seals, as the
club men who patronize the theatre
apparently think. The work of the
good women throughout the town is
gratuitious and is freely and cheer
fully given for the cause of humanity.
at sacrifice to the women them
selves.
Because of the personal complaint
of two or three club men about town,
the sale of The Red Gross Seals at
the Boyer Theatre was discontinued
last night, and no more seals will be
sold there. A portion of the public,
however feel immeasurably grateful to
Mrs. Rittenour, chairman of the com
mittee on sale of Red Gross Seals at
the theatre, and to Mrs. d. w. Brere-
ton, vice-chairman, for the splendid
work they have done to promote the
good cause, and trust these ladies will
accept public apology for the often
sive ones, who brought about their
withdrawal from the theatre lobby.
Nobody is compelled to buy Red
Cross Seals, or anything else, unless
they want to. This is free country
too free for the most part-and
when approached by saleswomen of
Red Cross Seals, they could politely
decline, nobody forces a sale on any
one. 1t is a personal privilege to buy
or decline to make a purchase. An
napolis is unique because of a few
club men who strenuously object to
the sale of Red Gross Seals for the
sake of humanity.

week are in red type. The calendar
is useful to the home, counting room
or office, and is ornamental as well.

Following an old established Gus.
tom, the dramatic organization of mid.
shipmen at the Naval Academy known
as "The Masquersders, will give
their regular Christmas Show on
Saturday evening at s O'Clock in the
Auditorium at the Academy.
Midshipman Dodd is president of
the Masqueraders this year. The
Christmas show always takes the
form of minstrel performance with
an en- semble, a few solos. duets and
choruses and an olio.
This show comes so near after the
opening of the Naval Academy that it
is far less pretentious than the June
Week show, which is usually a comic
opera or a musical comedy composed
by the midshipmen and written wholly
:" within Bancroft Hail."
The admission to Saturday night
performance by the Masqueraders will
be by card for all except midshipmen.
