WILL MEET AT MCDOWELL HALL
Men and Religion Forward Move
ment-All Men Invited at Mon
days Meeting Cooperation Of
Citizens Needed.

The Men and Religion Forward Move
ment organization of Annapolis will
meet in Mcdowell Hall. ST. Johns Col
lege, at s p. m. Monday, January s.
and all men are earnestly invited.
The two laymen appointed by the
pastors of the churches in Annapolis
are specially urged to be present to
receive literature and further in
strnction in regard to the visiting
campaign.
The chairman of the subcommittee
on auxiliary cities from the head
quarters Of Mary lands convention
city of Baltimore will be present to
assist us in cooperating in the work
which is agitating the country.
The cooperation of all citizens is
earnestly desired to increase the at
tendance on worship Of our Heavenly
Father in all churces by men instead
of leaving this to the women. The
appalling increase of crime in our
community demands effective action.
The census reports shows that in
the United States in the last decade
there were S6.934 persons murdered
in ten years. This number is increas-
ing, last year there were S,975 muir
ders or more than one for each hour
of the year. In the United States
the proportion of murders is about so
per million of inhabitants, while in
Italy the ratio is Is per million, and
IN Germany, where adequate punish
ment is invariably inflicted, the aver
age was but per million inhabitants.
This week of prayer in the church
es of Annapolis has prepared for this
meeting on January and it is urgent
ly necessary that all men in this com
munity shall cooperate to Influence
the masses to avail thmselves of the
aids of religion in the avoidance of
crime by invoking the omnipotent
aid of our Father to deliver US from
evil.

Chairman of the Men and Religion
Movement in Annapolis.

You can imagine what I felt like at
that. I lost no more time. Though I
couldn't see a sign of a house, I was
still convinced that one was near. so
started in with new hope to look
for IT.
After a deal more plunging I thought

cushion cover, a dolly or two. pretty
and dainty personal articles
These she keeps sacredly By them
selves and occasionally gets them out,
and turns them over with a happy
look in her eyes, AID then puts them
back again.
Is she engaged to be married? Not
necessarily. Has she a lover? Per-
haps not; 1t is immaterial-
But she has something which rep
renteth both the engagement ring
and the lover. Dreams.
And having these dreams she Is as
happy as II every day she had picked

She is not planning for a nest in

ing to Overlook Music.

The man that hath no music in him

Nor is not moved with concord OF
sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems. and

Turkey apparently has heard of
Shakespeare and takes some stock in
his observation, for the Starr Piano
company ships hundreds of instru-
ments to that country.
Although Turkey is being kicked by
the Bulgarians on one side. fought by
the Greeks on the other. slapped by
the Montenegrins. and is having trou-
BILE with the Servians. the demand for
pianos and piano players has not di'
minished. The local piano company
last week shipped a car load of pia-
nos to Turkey. The demand for pia.
nos in the Balkan countries is very
slight.
