CHAPLAIN WOULD BE
A REAL SOLDIER
Longs To Be At The Front To Drill
Soldiers With His "Wonderful
Foot" But is Prevented Because
OF Professional Duties.

Charlie Chaplin sends message
from Los Angeles to London soldiers,
which is published in the current is
sue of Fall In, the official organ OF
the Middlesex Territorial Regiment.
He writes:
Il would that l were at the front.
as you so strikingly put it, drilling
squad with, as you add, a kick
from that wonderful foot of mine.
with a stapch heart too, if l We're
there Those of you there have set
the proper pace-I would try to
meet it. l am sorry that my profes-
sional demands do not permit my
presence in the mother country: [
hope that in so saying 1 do not sound
coldblooded or hiding behind my
players coat. There are some of us
who cannot be at the front and
there are many of youLondon men
and all-that can be. We cheer you
for your spirit, your courage and the
cheerful way you are each doing
your little bit"
IF, in my modest sort of way" he
concludes, lin occasional bits of
CHEEKY nonsense as Charlie Chaplin
of the films, | can instil moment of
brief relief from the brunt of the
fray this is my contribution to the
man at the front. and who may say
that it shall not too share in doing
hit for good old England, and in
helping things and men over the
rough spots"

BERRIES TO Be PLENTIFUL
And The Horde of PickerS Are In
vading Strawberry Belt.

Ridgely, Md, May 17.-Strawber
ry pickers are beginning to arrive
from Baltimore, Annapolis and other
parts of the State, and by the last of
the week a floating population of
5000 will be located within a radius
of two miles of this town, which is
in the center of the Eastern Shore
strawberry-growing belt. The pre-
serving plant of the Armour people
here will employ hundreds of Bohe
mians from Baltimore.
This years acreage in the vicinity
of Ridgely is double that of last sea-
son, and the Armour plant will lar
gely increase it's output of preserved
fruit. Judging from present appear
ances the yield will surpass any pre-
vious season. There have been no
late frosts nor bug pests to kill the
early blooms, and as a consequence
patches are loaded to their fullest
capacity. The frequent rains have
also done much good in helping
along the crop.
Pickers who do not get that tired
feeling" within a few hours after
they have reached the patches, OF
spend their time in eating berries.
make all the way from So so to Sc q
day. Employment will be afforded
all the local labor that can be had
and, in addition, many thousands OF
families will come to the Shore
Caroline, Wicomico and other coun-
ties-to share in the work

JOINS IN QUARANTINE
Another Delaware Town Cuts Off
Traffic With Laurel

Seaford, Del, May 16.-Following
the action of the Seaford Board of
Health and Town Council, in declar-
ing a quarantine against the town of
Laurel, where there is an outbreak of
the smallpox, the Blades Commis-
sioners met with the Seaford officials
last night and likewise declared
quarantine against Laurel. Notices.
were posted this morning and guards
placed along the roads to stop all
travel between the towns.
The action of the boards has caus-
ed some hard feeling between the
towns, but the matter was held up
for sometime upon the promise OF
the Laurel Board of Health to keep
the residents of that town at home.
Learning that large numbers of Lau-
rel citizens were visiting Seaford and
Blades, the local board decided that
the time had come for action.

ANNAPOLIS TO ENFORCE
SUNDAY Blue LAWS
Following The Action of The Grand
jury in Scoring The Police Au-

gence in Enforcing The Laws. New
Orders Are Given.

No more Sunday sodas. Sunday
newspapers, Sunday gasoline, Sunday
ice cream. Sunday cigars, nor Sun

that ancient city desires to quench
his thirst for knowledge, ices. speed,

self to Baltimore, or lat least, out

Grand Jury for Anne Arundel county
recently submitted report in which
the police force of Annapolis and
the county, and also the sheriff were
charged with practical malfeasance
in office because of the notorious vio
lations of the law on the Sabbath, as
well as other days of the week.
The grand jury's report was warm
ly commended by Judge Brashears
and he further stated that it would
be reconVened next month for fur
ther inquiry into alleged derelictions
upon the part of tide county police
officials
Following this action upon the
part of the grand jury and the Court,
Mayor Strange, of Annapolis, has no
titled the police to stringently en-
force the old Blue Laws Whether
this will bring about a revulsion of
public sentiment against these laws
and thereby minimize the effect of
the grand jury's Investigations or
not, cannot yet be determined.

TEACH FOLKS HOW TO EAT
Ford Believes Americans Consume
Too Much Food.

(From the Columbus, O.. Journal)
Henry Ford, the auto apostle, is
also the apostle of good health, which
he proposes everybody should have
by limiting their eating. Eat only
when hungry" he says, "and then
eat less than you feel you need. Try
this for week and 1 guarantees you
will feel much healthier" His idea
is that We would save money and
have better health if we ate only
about one-third what We now eat.
To carry out this idea within the
sphere of his manufacturing influ-
ence, he proposes a department of
dietetics, in connection with gen
eral hospital, open not only to his
to practice his idea of limited eating
Health and economy are his objects
but health is first Here is his plan:
New department in public hospital
to teach people how to eat.
People to have benefit of expert
dietician.
Less eating is expected to prevent
cases of alcoholism.
One thousand private rooms for
the middle class to be provided at
new hospital, the charge for sick
man to be So day, including room,
board and nurse attendance.
Nurses to work in three shifts no
nurse to work more than eight hours
day.
New building at hospital to be
built around garden.
Limited eating not only builds up
the physical part of man. but the
moral and intellectual part A man
can think better if he doesn't eat SO
much and he is freer from vile in
clinations. Much of the alcoholism
in the world may be ascribed to ov-
creating, and overeating is where
one eats more than he needs. Mr.
Ford's calling the peoples attention
to the universal fault of eating too
much will do much for the happiness
and health of the people

5 Per CENT. FARM LOANS
What The Proposed Rural Credit
System Will Provide.
tPaul ". Collins, in Review of


Reviews.)
In many localities (especially in
the old d7settled East) farmers already
= borrow son first mortgages, at ) or
5 u per cent interest, and so they
are not to be greatly relieved in in
terest rate; though, as these mort
cages run, usually for only five
years, they are in danger of fore
closure and loss of their farms, if
crop failures or sickness overtake
! them.
But according to the testimony of
the expert on farm organization, DR..
c. w. Thompson, of the Department
of Agriculture, the rate on farm
mortgages in the Northwest and
South averages 10 per cent, and, in
many cases, ranges up to Is, IS, and
even 25 per cent. The proposed rural
credits system, if put into force, will
bring sunshine upon many such
mortgag age-clouded farms, for it will
provide all the funds needed, upon
first mortgages, up to half the value
of any farm, at, not to exceed per
cent, and at an average of 5 per
cent. interest
Furtharmore: The mortgage will
run, III desired, SO years. and, during
that time. the farmer will pay l per
cent. a year on the principal and,
presto! the total of per cent in 36
years pays off the principal, as we'll
as the interest, and the farm works
its own way out from under the
mortgage. That is what is known
as "amortization''- big word. per
forming big work. 1t is not obliga-
tory that the paying of the loan be
so prolonged, for, after five years. it
can be paid off as fast as the farmer
pleases.
No loan is to be for less than five
years, nor more than So Whatever
number of years are determined up
on by the borrower, when he makes
the loan, determines how much he
must amortize each year; for a fixed
portion of the principal must be
paid every year, so as to clear off
the entire principal by the end of
the term.k Strange as it may seem.
it is necessary only to pay per
cent. "a he original amount) each
year. to her with the interest on
the orlA amount, to clear off the
entire in 36 years.
