One Example Given.

For example, here is an extract from
the letter of a woman who is going to
entertain two service men, but does not
want her name used:
Il should prefer to have some young
man who is an orphan. as 1 hope to
have the privilege of helping to make
pleasant the life of some boy after he
gets into the trenches. who will have
no mother to write to him. 1t would
seem an additional pleasure to remem-
ber some boy over there whom one
had met and entertained"
The way in which the pastors of the
various congregations are encouraging
their people to entertain the service
men is shown in a letter received to-
day from Rev. w. Z. Harrison, jr.,
pastor of Iowa Avenue NJ. Z. Church,
who says that he is calling the home
hospitality idea to the attention of his
congregation each week.
The women Of RiSerdale are planning
to entertain twenty y-flve of the boys
from Camp Meade at q dinner and
dance on Thanksgiving day. The men
of the community have made generous
contributions for the turkey, and
Messrs. Jones and Reibetanz have given
the use of the hall for the occasion.

longs to Baltimore county. The
other portion belongs to Anne Arun-
del county. They are controlled by
and governed by the Board of Coun-
ty Commissioners of each respective
county Seldom, if ever, is COM
missioner elected in either Baltimore
or Anne Arundel county who resides
in the distinctively Getty area of the
county The commissioners are near
ly always picked from the rural sec
lions of the county. They are par
ticularly picked from those districts
identified and in sympathy with the
specifically county affairs" Meth
err county has ever shown DISPOSE
ton to choose a man whose interest
is primarily in the development OF
that zone which is directly aftillat-
ed with city life. There is certain
antagonism of interest as between the
distinctively rural districts and the
distinctively city districts, and the
county voters, as consequence, pick
their commissioners from those ele-
ments who are heartily and exclu-
sively devoted to distinctly county
policies.
The reality of this ma etaoietaoi
wretchedly disproportionate measure
of constructive improvements which
the county commissioners place with
in the "citified zone" Property
owners and jewellers, generally, with
in the belt scheduled to come into the
city limits, are continually complain
ing that their denial of representa-
ton on the two boards of County
Commissioners has persistently re-
suited in their not getting a fair share
of consideration out of the county
treasury.
Under the proposed City Exten-
sion Bill, this belt will not have one,
but six representatives, in the City
Council. The annexed zone, small as
it is, will be given a voice in the
municipal legislature somewhat lar
ger in proportion than it's population
bears to the present population OF
the city. None the less, the repre-
sentation is generously made, and
those localities will enter more close
" into the privileges of local self
government than they have ever
done before

Annexed Areas Under The City
Extension Bill Will Have Definite ;
Participation in City Government

Suppose the Legislature should ex-
tend the limits of Baltimore city
along the lines suggested in the pro-
posed bill, how far would the change
work an injustice on the political
status of the people annexed?
AS a matter of fact. the whole stat
US of those people will be improved
There will be no hardship. There is
no angle from which you view it that
does not show advancement. The
whole area will be benefited i'm
measurably.
Take, for instance, the matter of
government. Under the city extern
sion plan the whole of this annexed
area will have a more direct and
more effective voice in their imme-
date neighborhood affairs than they
have now. Do you ask how this can
be true? Read the City Extension
Bill and see for yourself. Under this
proposed bill the annexed territory
embraced in it's terms will be divid-
ed into four separate and distinct
wards. Each of those wards will be
entitled to a representative. Under
the law, each such councilman will
have to be a resident of the ward he
represents There can be no repre-
sentative of any of these new wards
except duly qualified men who are
actual taxpayers and residents there
in. No outsider will have charge OF
their affairs Each section embraced
in each new ward will have its own
special agent or councilman looking
after its affairs in the municipal gov
eminent.
Now that covers the measure of
representations the First Branch of
the City Council. But that isn't all.
These annexed sections, specifically
and distinctively, will have repre-
sentatives also in the Second Branch.
This representation will not have its
value neutralized by embracing the
new areas in some district along
with the present wards.On the con-
trary, the new sections will be form
ed into two special districts of their
own, so that the annexed area will
have two Second Branch Councilmen
identified with their interests.
Is that true of the present status
of that territory? One portion be-
