WAR ACTIVITIES
| NOT YET ABANDONED
Military Authorities Continuing
Operations. No Let
Up Yet
TO SOON CEASE, HOWEVER

Rumors of peace do not. apparently,
interfere with the Draft Board.
Up to this time the local military
authorities have received no intima-
tion that there will be any let up III
the draft program. They are going
ahead just as they would if there were
urgent need of more troops in France.
Questionnaires are being filled out,
and should the call come Maryland
will be ready TO respond. 1t is believ-
ed. however. in military circles that
all operations in this direction will
cease before the time set for the next
quota to report arrives.
Word reached here that General
Crowder was seriously considering the
suspension of the November draft,
there being no necessity for induct-
ing additional men into the service.
There is no question that the war il
approaching an, end and within a week
fighting will cease. Most of the men
over there will then be called upon to
do police duty, serving until such a
time as the Allied nations will deem it
safe to withdraw from German soil.
Shippers and vessel owners are
most deeply interested in settlement
of affairs. Notwithstanding the ap-
parent ietup by the submarines, the
naval authorities have not abandoned
the precautionary measures looking to
the safeguarding of supply ships and
transports Some few have had the
temerity to come across without pro-
lection, but with these few exceptions
all transatlantic vessels are still be-
ing conveyed.
While vessels load quickly enough
upon arrival and then promptly clear.
they lost time frequently waiting at
the point of meeting for those boats
that are to complete the number to be
conveyed. Once the seas are declared
safe, all this will be done away with
and ships will be coming and going
as before, many more flying the Stars
and Stripes than at any period in the
last century.
With the freedom of the seas re-
stored, this country will be ready to
compete with the world, and the pre-
diction is made that, notwithstanding
the increased shipping facilities, all
ports of entry in this country, prac-
tically those on the Atlantic Seaboard,
will be taxed to handle their business.

VICTORY BOYS AND
GIRLS ARE READY
Arrangements Completed At Sun
day Schools At Yesterdays
Sessions In Churches
ARE HAPPY TO GIVE

I The part to be taken by the Victory
Boys in the United War Work Cam
paign of this week, has been thor
oughly outlined, and most of the pre-
1 liminary steps taken. Yesterday
there was great campaign through
the Sunday schools for both the Vic
tory boys and Victory girls. Pledge
cards were in the hands of the officials
of all the schools, who put it up TO
the scholars. Wherever the plan has
been presented so far, it has met with
such an en- husiastic response, that it
is apparent that all that is necessary
is a suitable presentation, and the
children will be anxious to do their
full part in the campaign.
A very encouraging start was made
Friday at St Mary's, where the mat
ter was explained to the large boys
by Major Hugh r. Riley, who is head
ing that particular work here Nearly
every boy of suitable age agreed to
become a Victory boy, and secure by
his own work, $500 to help the organ
izations that are standing by the sol
diers. The hearty response proved
that the st. Mary's boys are 100 per
cent patriotic, and was an inspiration
to those who are managing the cam
paign. Additional Victory boys were
also secured at the meeting of the
Boy Scouts Friday night
The Office of Hugh r. Riley, Hart
Building, Church Circle. is to be head
quarters this week, and officials of
the schools and other groups are ask
ed to see that as many pledge cards
as possible are turned in by tomorrow
morning They will then be listed by
streets, and workers from among the
napolis and the suburbs, who has not
pledged his amount, and give him the
opportunity. Every effort will be
taken to make the work thorough, as
Il is felt the boys should have the op-
portunity of receiving the benefit that
working for the cause will give them.
The point about the whole move
ment is that it works both ways. Not
only are the boys helping the soldiers,
but the fact of working and sacrificing
for others is sure to mean a lot to
them. The boys are encouraged to
think of one particular soldier whom
they know, perhaps big brother, and
to work with the idea that they are
doing it for him. Nothing could make
the boys who are too young to be sol
diers feel to a greater degree that they
are really bearing a part
There can be no count that the boys
and girls will respond if the matter
is put before them in the right way.
They are anxious to help their coun-
try, and the cause of right, and this
is their best opportunity

DR.. SPEAR TO LEAVE;
SENT TO YOKOHOMA
Annapolis To Lose SkiIful Surgeon
And Physician of Marked
Ability

Dr. Raymond Spear who has been
stationed at the Naval Hospital for
the last two years, will leave within
few days for Yokohoma, Japan,
where he will be in charge of the hos
pital at that place.
This is considered one of the best
assignments within the service, and
while Annapolis is loath to have DR..
Spear leave. he is to be congratulated
upon the transfer to the new work
DR.. Spear is a surgeon of rare skill
and ability. His work in surgery is
little short of marvellous. His serv-
ice to the Emergency Hospital has
been invaluable, and his leaving An
napolis is little short of calamity.
