A Fine Hot Weather:
Breakfast Food

For several weeks there have been
running through this paper a series OF
advertisements that tell of the good
qualities of Post Toasties. The adver-
tisement in this issue is headed"Bring
Smiles" and the house-keeper who
reads this advertisement will recognize
the suitability of the heading for the
ability to have right in the home a
food that is delicious to the taste,
nourishing to the stomach and already
prepared cannot but smile to herself
when she realizes how the difficulties
ened for her. This we'll known food
is also well suited for other meals, and
those who have read and continue to
learn many ways in which it can be
served. All of the advertising of the
c. w. Post Co. is carefully prepared by
men who know the value of truth in
advertising. this being the motto of
practically all of the big advertisers
of the country. Another thing that
may be of interest to our local adver-
tisers is the fact that the gentleman
who prepares the copy for the adver-
Using of this Company is one of the
nlS nest Sdldl leu iIieH III Tile country,
getting in excess of $50 a day for his
services.
In connection with this advertising,
the fact should be borne in mind by
the local consumer that all of the
standard brands of goods are "adver-
tised" This means that the manufac-
turers are not afraid to get behind
their products that they have such
that they are willing to put them to
the test. The house-keeper who buys
advertised brands has the satisfaction
of knowing that she gets the best, and
it is mighty good plan to insist upon
your dealer furnishing you with adver-
tised brands Of goods; take no substi

WANT OYSTER QUESTION
TAKEN OUT OF POLITICS
Talbot Countians Believe Conservation
Commission Can Do Much Good For
The State.

Easton, Md, July 1.-THE inspection
trip of the Conservation Commission
today included an investigation of
small oysters on Swan Point Bar, after
which the steamer stopped at Annapo-
lis to inspect the schooner May Brown.
Upon arrival in Easton Bay inspection
was made of the schooners Julia Ham,
ilton and the Frolic, and conference
was held with the different command
ers.
The working of the new State crab
law is reported by the deputy COM
manders in Kent, Anne Arundel and
Queen Anne's counties very salts
factory, and a large number OF crab
bers have taken out licenses.
The steamer McLane arrived off st.
Michaels this afternoon and a large
meeting was held at the town hall this
evening Thomas E. Harrison presided
at the meeting.
A number indicated plainly that they
wanted to see the oyster question TAX
en- out of politics, and stated that they
believed that the Conservation Com
mission, if they carried out the pro-
gram outlined this evening. would do a
great work for the State and the peo-
pie There was a strong sentiment
here for the enforcement of the Gull
law. which they urged, not only for st.
Michaels. but for the entire waters of
Maryland.
The commission leaves in the morn
ing for Cambridge, and will inspect the
State fish hatcheries at Kenton. Tuck

Vast Power In Hands
Of Railroad Employees

In Farm and FireSide attention is
called to the power in the hands of
railroad employees in this country-a
power that is unparalleled in any other
group of labor in the world.
They can make and enforce de-
mands because if they should walk out
they could tie up the country's trans
portation in an hour. A week of such
paralysis would see people starving in
many cities. It would see business
wrecked. Millions upon millions of
other wage earners would be thrown
out of employment. A week of that sort
& CUHuzuonS
IS would require months to straighten
out. after regular train service had
been restored.
The railroads, as everybody knows,
are unable now to handle the business
offered them Terminals are conges-
ted. long delays are experienced in de-
hveries, ships are not to be had to take
all the export business. Suppose
case:
European Governments have taken
over the control of their merchant
shipping in order to make it serve war
needs better. No British ship may take
cargo or contract for particular voy-
age without the authorization of the
Board of Trade, which corresponds to
our Department of Commerce. The
Government is compelling the ships to
DO what it wants. 1t insists on getting
the utmost results from every ship.
III, then, American railroads and
business should suddenly be tied up,
the Governments would stop sending
ships here They would be sent else
where; no risk of bootless voyages
would be incurred. Ships that ought
to have come to the United States
would be sent away to Argentina, In
dia, Australia, heaven knows where;
and months after our railroads had re-
sumed normal operations those ships
would still be working for somebody
else than US. Our grain and manufac-
lures and meats would be left on the
dock. while the ships were hauling
some other country's stuff to Europe.

How Mines are Laid

One of the ways in which the beIIig-
erent nations lay mines in harbors and
other waters is described in the July
Popular Mechanics Magazine On one
deck of vessel are several narrow
tracks supporting the mines, each of
which is mounted on wheels. Each
mine is in turn rolled to the stern and
by means of special launching tracks,
is dropped into the sea without fitting
IA mine Of the character described is
made up of three parts: A spherical
floating chamber containing the expIo-
sive, etc; an anchor chamber which is
connected with the former by a cable,
and weighted sounding line. The
length of the latter is equal to the
depth at which the mine is to float.
When the end Of the sounding line
strikes bottom the lessening of its pull
The daily banner. (Cambridge, Md.) 1897-2008, 1916-07-12

throws a pawl which prevents the
drum in the anchor chamber from pay
ing out more cable to the sphere. Con-
sequently the latter is drawn under
water to a depth equal to the length
of the counding line, as the anchor
chamber settles to the bottom. A page
illustration in the July Popular Me-
chanics Magazine depicts graphically
this method of mine laying.

 That President and Mrs. Doyne and Mrs. Russell Doyne boarded and lived at the dormitory without reimbursing thc state.
 That approximately $500 was paid out acording to cancelled checks, without itemi2od bills or other instru- ments showing how and for what the money was spent being filed.
 That there was no interest paid on the schools money deposited in the Farmers State Bank at Conway, and that President Doyne on January 1 owned 20 shares of stock in the bank. The report said that another bank at Conway had offered to pay interest on the schools deposits.
 ! That during August. 19l4. and Au- gust, 1915, money was spent for gro ceries and help, although the school was not in session. In August, l9t4. the amount, it is alleged, was $12659, and in August, 1915, $127.23, accord illS lt CdiCclieQ CneCkS.
 President Doyne answered every charge in detail and made full e,lpla- nations of every alleged irregularitv. He stated that the duties of his po- sition were such that he did not have time to keep an elaborate set of looks, but that entries were made of every item received or paid out and that cancelled checks or receipted bills were on file to account for every expenditure
 The ridiculousness of the charges is shown in two or three of the items in the above summary. As to the purchase of supplies for the dor mitory during the month of Au- gust when school was not in session." President Doyne shows clearly that these were merely payments in Au- gust for accounts made in July, when the summer term was in session, the grocers, as is customary, rcndcrinr their bills on the first of the month following. As to the payment of in- terest on the dormitory account in the Farmers State Rank, the cashiers of both the other banks here signed q telegram today declaring that it was untrue that either of them had ever offered to pay interest on this check ing account. The reference to Presi- cent and Mrs. Doyne remaining at the girls dormitory without paying board is considered particularly un-

CENTRAL. OUACH|TA
 FUND IS GROWING

The fund of $15,0OO being raised Tn the state to take care of floating indebtedness against Central and Ouachita colleges is rapidly growing, according to the Baptist Advance, which reports this week that it lacks only $4,450 of completion. The Ad- vance says:
 As will be seen on this page, the education fund has grown a round thousand dollars this week, standing now at 300 Besides this, a letter has come from good brother who says that when $14,750 of this fund IS paid in he will give the last $25O. and he will do it. That means that the subscription now lacks only $4,- 4oO of being completed Brethren, how great it would be for brethren and churches to voluntarily step for ward and complete this list by next week. In the meantime, let us send every pupil we can to our colleges. Pray and work, brethren"

just. as provision was made for apart ments for them when the dormitory was built and they were staying in the building with the full knowledge and consent of the trustees, and the extra work as purchasing agent for the institution, as well as looking after the discipline of 90 girls, has always been held to be worth more than the board of the president and his wife.
 Practically all the other items in the report are susceptible of an equal ly simple explanation, as the entire report is clearly strained and dis torted attempt to discredit the ad- ministration.
