SCORES ON ABSENCE OFSCHO0L
CHILDREN AT EXERCISE.
Supt. Brist Of National Cemetery Com
ments On Action Of School
Authorities.

Much regret was expressed BY Su-
perintendent Brist, of the National
Cemetery. for the absence of the school
children, whose habits and minds are
fixed and controlled by the training
they receive when young. In his adj
dres he said;
Just what YOU want your children
to be when grown, teach them when
they are young, and those in control
would clearly demonstrate by their
actions and rulings, what their atti-
tude is in the matter of patriotic edu-
cation, and the action of those in au-
thority.. in depriving the teachers and
school children of Annapolis of an OPP
portunity to learn lessons of devotion
to our country and our flag by partici-
pating in Memorial Day exercises, and
the closing OF the schools the next day
after memorial exercises, for the bal
ance of the week, clearly demon
strates their attitude in the matter of
instilling devotion TO country and the
flag in the minds of the young. Incl
dentally, the children get a half holi-
day for all of June Week"

Is THE NEW CHEMICAL TRUCK.

Fighting Device.

Citizens.of Annapolis were treated
to a view of the handsome new chemi-
cal hose truck recently purchased by
Rescue Hose Company, and which ar
rived here late Monday afternoon.
Members of Rescue Hose drove the
automobile chemical truck around the
city yesterday afternoon to the admi-
ration of the crowds.
The body of the truck is painted
white. with bright red running-gear.
There is large chemical tank toward
the front just behind the driver seat,
and to the tank is attached a hose,
ready for use.
Besides this there are several
smaller chemical tanks. Beneath the
rack for firemen's coats and hats, is
provision for 1900 feet. of hose.
The new truck was given a three
hours test by the Baltimore City Fire
Department Monday over seventy-six
miles of road. steep grade, and the
test was most satisfactory. IL is
hoped citizens who have not heretofore
contributed to the new truck will do
so now that it is here. There is 81, 400
still owing on the apparatus.

when it comes to the test the
owners Of the land want such an
extortionate price for the land
that the Fiscal Court thinks that
it would be an injustice to the

made must necessarily run over
some body's land, and that LAND
ought to be bought cheaper, thar

is for the mutual benefit of the
