DAILY PRAYER Is
FOR EUROPEAN PEACE
Cardinal Gibbons Regrets That Peace
on Earth Message is Not
Universal.

BALTIMORE, Md, Dec. 26.-That
the warning nations will soon see the
error OF their ways and wrongs of the
war Cardinal Gibbons today said was
his earnest and daily prayer. At this
time of the year when the spirit OF
peace on earth and good will TO men
prevails. he said, it was greatly to be
regretted that thousands upon thou
sands of lives were being destroyed
and billions and billions of property
being wrecked with the raVages of the
war demon running at large through
continental Europe. Cardinal Gibbons
said:
Il hope and pray earnestly every
day that the Lord will inspire the con-
tending powers to bring TO an early
end the war in Europe; this great up
heaval of society and the unpreced-
ented loss of life and destruction of
property There will be no glory or
requistion of territory that can COM
pensate the world for this fearful pa
ralysis of commerce and trade that
has been caused by this war

1t is big with the bigness of life. It
annihilates time and space so effec-

gasp in establishment at the fact that
his trip Around the World in Eighty

of fancy may now be accomplished in
as many minutes by travelling with
Howe. Moreover, the trip is made
without a minutes inconvenience and
without any OF the hazards of travel.

ALLIES ARE NOT
READY To INVADE
Nothing in Military Situation to
Justify Gen. Joffre in ASsum-
ing a General Offensive
NibbIing Now.
BY E. Ashmead Bartlett.

LONDON. Dec. 26.-Gen. Joffre has
not yet assumed a general offensive
and there seems TO he nothing in the
military situation to justify him in do
ing so.
The allies are keeping up a steady
pressure along the whole battle line
and gaining a little ground, one day
winning a few trenches and some
times losing them the next-that is
all. But the Germans are being given
no rest
They are being made TO feel thai
any further weakening Of their lines
by sending achievements 10 the IN
satiable nav of Won Hindenburg will
lead TO disastrous results. BY these
stactics We are materially assisting the
tactics of Grand Duke Nicholas.
AS a matter OF fact an offensive on
grand scale in the west would be
premature. For the time being we
can only continue the ''nibbling" pro-
cess.
Probably there are about as many
troops concentrated along both the
German and allied fronts as they can
properly hold, but the allies are not
in the same position as the Germans.
The former have a flank they can
envelop when the psychological mo-
ment arrives. This flank Is repre-
SenIeQ Dy the belgian lLleTdl anu IL
is the British command Of the sea
which will eventually turn the scale in
favor of the allies in the west.
There is a little strip of sand dunes
running along the coast that the Ger
mans cannot occupy for a dista nee
of five miles inland. Here their POSI-
tons are outfianked and rendered I'M
tenable by the fire Of the British and
French squadrons.
Under cover of these guns the allied
infantry is gradually pushing forward
toward Osten.
If the right wing of the Germans
is driven back what strategical result
Will be obtained?
The answer is that the English will
have new armies to throw on the con-
tinent in the spring.
This force will give the allies de-
cided superiority in numbers over the
Germans and il is certain that Ger
many has no more reserves to throw
into Flanders except some Landstrum
formations of small fighting value.
If only our new armies are ready
in time the soil both of France and
Belgium should be clear of the enemy
by the beginning of June.
This contamination so devoutly 70
be wished, may come sooner If the
Russians are able to drive back Won
Hindenburg and invest CracoW.

MIDDLE IN STATE BOARD.
Clayton PurneII Sues To Displacs
Henry ShriVer.

Clayton PurneII Sues To Displacs
Henry shriver.
| Clayton PurneIl instituted suit in
the Circuit Court of Anne Arundel
county for the purpose of determining
whether he or Henry Shriver, of Cum
berland, who was named by Governor
Goldsborough as his successor, is en-
titled to membership on the State
Board of Education.
This question can be solved only by
determining whether or not the Gov
ernor exceeded his authority when he
appointed Mr.. Shriver to the board
after the Senate of 1914 had failed to
confirm the nomination of him.
Mr.. Purnell's term as member Of
the State Board of Education was to
have expired on the first Monday Of
last May. In February the Governor
sent to the Senate for confirmation as
Mr.. Purnell's successor the name Of
Mr.. Shriver. At the same time Thos.
H. Book, of Somerset county, was
nominated as member of the board.
Mr.. Book was confirmed, but the
Senate failed to act upon the nomina-
ton Of Mr.. Shriver, the intention being
to have Mr.. Purnell continue in Office.
The Governor then conferred with At
torney-General Poe as to whether or
not he had a right to make recess ap-
pointment. The Attorney General ruled
in the affirmative and Mr.. Shriver, not
withstanding what the Senate had
done, was commissioned.
It is contended that where. confrma-
ton by the Senate is specifically re-
quired the Governor cannot make a re-
cess appointment after the Senate has
failed to act upon a name that has
been sent to 1t for confirmation. The
Governor contends, however, that con-
firmation in the case of appointments
to the State School Board is not neces-
sary. Mr.. Purnell insists that the Gov.
ernor is wrong and that he is entitled
to hold over
