MRS. P. j. ROSS.
The Roadside Tree Law.

With the advent of summer and the
season when so much attention is given
to outdoor life, news regarding a well
framed roadside tree law passed at the
last session of the State Legislature is
received with interest by Maryland
citizens.
The contrast between road lined on
either side with a row of handsome
trees. and one unprotected from cold
winds, and the glare and heat of a hot
summers sun is at once apparent to
| anyone. There is contrast, too, be-
tween the street or country highway
with Its well-cared for, ornamental
trees and the road whose trees are
covered with numerous signs and ad-
vertisements which are not, to say the
least, ornamental in any way.
All of these things have received at
tention in law which is sure to con-
tribute much to the appearance of the
state, identifying the landscape, and
making Maryland roads and streets
comfortable and more attractive to the
passerby. For this law gives the State
Board of Forestry power not only to
care for and improve trees already
planted along any highway, but pro-
yides for their proper planting in de-
sirable places.
1t is forbidden under this law, and a
penalty provided, to trim. cut down, or
in any way to mutilate roadside trees
without the approval and permission of
the State Forest Officers. And further,
the placing of any advertising matter
on fences, stones. trees or building in
or upon the public highways is now
prohibited, and fine provided for the
enforcement of this provision.
The direct benefits to be derived from
such law are only too apparent, and
the State Board of Forestry proposes
in the immediate future to show the
people of this state how they may them
selves assist in carrying out this new
law and aid in improving the appear
ance of their particular district.

gag. But you are expected to hustle
around and collect the debt. This means
honest work. A more dangerous en-
ticement for the young man is the par
lor gambling. He has never played.
Tables are placed and cards are on
them. The hostess, smiling, beautiful
and winsome, asks him to join the
game. He pleads ignorance of the
game. Wen teach you. He becomes
learner. He plays for the excite
ment and the pleasures of society. He
progresses rapidly. Soon he wants to
play elsewhere. It's too tame in the
parlor. The spirit of gambling is
awakened. The fatal excitement of
winning money is kindled. By whom?
Women, social leaders, church mem

did you ask God to bless you in the ne
farlous work of starting that young
man down the incline of hell? o, wo-
man, you whose home may tie desolat
ed. whose heart may be wrung with
sorrow, whose brow may be wrinkled
prematurely by this fiend, what plea
have you to make for using your in
fluence and charms to lead the young
into dangers of gaming? Do you say it
is a harmless amusement. Can that be
harmless, that so often leads to poverty
and vice. Is moderate drinking harm
less when in most cases it leads to
drunkard's grave? Stop the accursed
practice at once. Burn your cards and
vow before God never to play again.
This is your only safety. 1t may save
your boy, as well as your neighbors'

Temperance Victories.

The cause of temperance is advancing
right along. New victories are being
won every few days and the liquor
cause is feeling the power of united
effort on the part of the temperance
people. MARYLAND is moving on toward
State wide prohibition. At Havre de
Grace the number of saloons have been
reduced from 16 to 5, after a holly
contested fight before the courts of the
county. Said distiller to the writer:
Maryland inside the next five years
will be dry territory. will not invest
another cent upon my distillery." He
has the correct idea. Garrett county
will be dry territory in less than one
year.
Charles county went dry in the
special election held Saturday to decide
the question of license or no license.
The overwhelming majority in favor of
the abolition of the saloons astonished
the leaders of the wet forces. The new
law goes into effect May /, 1915.
The leaders of the wet forces at
tribute their defeat in a measure to the
utterances of Cardinal Gibbons. who
before leaving for Europe, said, he
hoped Charles county would go dry.
The wet forces say that the Cardinal
was not familiar with conditions in the
county and that his statements turned
the tide toward the abolition of the
saloon in this county.
The dry forces are jubilant over the
result, and they make the prediction
that Charles county will now face an
era of prosperity never before equaled
in its history.
The question of license or no license
will not come up before the people of
st. Mary's county, which adioins
Charles county, until August. Both
sides there say that they believe that it,
too, vii! enter the ranks of the dry
counties of the state.

Smoking must come to an end among
tralnmen employed by the B. d O.,
according to orders of officials. Orders
have been very strict, almost as strict
as against those drinking and smoking
when on duty is no longer practiced.
Travelling representatives of the road,
however, report that men are to be
seen smoking on freight cars and box
cars when not on duty Following this
report, all trainmasters of the several
divisions of the B. & o. were instructed
to warn employees against the practice.
