TORNADO BENEFIT SUCCESS.
Response Of Public Exceeded All Ex-
pectati0ns.

The success which attended the en-
tertainent which was held last Monday
evening in the First Methodist Church
to aid in raising funds for the restora.
tion CT the cemetery was far beyond
the highest hopes of those who were
interested in planning the event.
1t would not be too much to say that
the success was embarrassing, because
the attendance was so large as to make
it impossible for the comfort of the
people. Electric fans were in opera
tion, and the room was weIl-ventiIated,
but the intense heat of the evening
made the crowded room very uncom-
Portable. Everybody seemed to be in
that happy frame of mind which in
clined them to make the best of the
occasion, even though many of them
had to stand throughout the entertain
ment.
Music was rendered by Mr.. Ritch-
ings at the piano and Mr.. Schreyer
upon the violin. Miss Louise Wells
sang Old Kentucky Home,7 Mrs.
Annie Brewer, "Suwanee River.
Miss Wells, Miss Edith Dawes and Mrs.
Maud Biles sang "Old Black Joe.
These songs were illustrated as they
were sung. "Alice in Wonderland
was given upon the stere opticon, the
pastor of the church Rev. Walter G.
Mcneil reading the story and Mr..
Pierce Jewell operating the l,ictures.
Homemade candies we're sold by
young ladies. Thanks are due all
those persons who literally responded
with donations of candy. Assurance is
given all those who in many ways
contributed to the success of the ben
eft that their kindnesses were appre-
ciated. The appeal for the worthy
cause of restoring the burying ground
proved itself effective.
Announcement will be made in The
Evening Capital concerning the
amount secured through this benefit as
soon as the returns from tickets have
been completed. The monies are in
the hands Of Miss Nellie Dadds, and
will be paid by her to the treasurer Of
the cemetery association. Once again,
those who planned this benefit wish
to extend their sincere thanks TO all
those who assisted in the affair.

Community Meeting
An IpformaI Affair at Arundel.


The community meeting held Sat-
urdsy night at Arundel -on-the- Bay was
a most informal affair.
The Mayor, Mr.. Thomas w. Smith
presided. No minutes were read of
the previous meeting, and no written
record of the meeting was made.
After a discussion among the Com
missioners present, the meeting was
thrown open and Mr.. T. Lincoln
Townsend was appointed chairman.
Things began to liven up somewhat.
Mr.. Townsend entered into the spirit
Of the occasion and there was an in
formal talk by va:ious members of the
community. Some thoughts advanced
were considered more OF less in the
light of joke.
One, suggested that cottages be
moved back fifty feet, as the inroads
being made by the bay were Of such a
nature many of the cottages would soon
be footing on the Chesapeake. To
move back 90 #. would make a stir-up
at Arundel-on-the-Bay that would be
a veritable resurrection morn.
Others suggested the removal Of
the boardwalk, much to the disgust of
the ladies whose skirts would never be
free of mud and dirt were there no
board walk. The community meeting
had its humorous side, had il not bor-
dered on the pathetic.

The Socialist, however. argues that
cooperation should do it's perfect
work; it should be embracing; il
should make a world wide brother
hood. As the trusts have absorbed the
small competitors so the nation should
absorb the trusts Thus all the bene-
fits should accrue to all the people
Socialism. then, may be defined simply
as "the public ownership of all the
means of producing and distributing
the necessaries OF life" II has never
yet been fully tried. The narest ap-
groach TO il is the postoftice, which is
admittedly far more serviceable than
il would be if owned by several com
peting corporations.
In his second address: Senator Ogden
expressed his belief in government
ownership to a limited extent He be-
lieved in the public ownership OF pub
lie utilities. but IN nothing else. He
cOntended that personal liberty would
be endangered Il the government own
ed and operated everything.
Mr. Smiley replied by calling atten-
tion TO the important difference be
tween government ownership and pub
lie ownership. The Socialists are
working for the latter, for they know
that government ownership permits
the exploitation OF the working class.
while public ownership will protect
all citizens
The operation of the initiative, ref
erendum and recall will help politics
as pure as possible. because the whole
people will handle the reins of gov
ernment. and hold public officials to
strict account.
The audience were then invited by
the Rev. Richerd hoeue, chairman of
the meeting, to enter into the discus
sion. Interesting remarks were made
by Mr.. William r. Cochran. Mr.. Louis
Kaplan Mr.. Charles Ogle, Rev. Chas.
f. Perkins, Rev. Charles L. Atwater
and others.
