Tickets For "Over There"

Tickets for cover There" Mary.
lands great Liberty Loan Canton
ment, in Baltimore, purchased in
Cecil county will insure special facil-
tiles for admission to the exhibition
that may not be enjoyed thr ough the
use of tickets bought in Baltimore
The tickets sold in this county beal
upon the reverse side the signature
of the Chairman of the Committee
and such a ticket will admit the
bearer to the Armory by special

the great crowds that will enter via
the main door.
1t will be the part of wisdom
therefore, to provide yourself with
county tickets,s which are on sale al
each bank in the county. Aside
from the signature. on the back Of
these tickets, they are identical with
the ones sold in Baltimore.
County headquarters has beer
established at the Armory, at which
Cecil county will have a desk where
visitors are asked to register, and al
which you will find representatives
from your section, who will take
pleasure in providing you with ex.
ceptional facilities for seeing the big

Game Law Passes.

Maryland at last will join the A
states that protect and propagate
their game. The action of the
House on the statewide game and
fish bill insures it becoming a law
In explaining the bill, Mr.. Bryant
said Mexico and Southern States hao
placed an embargo ON the shipments
of partridges beyond their bound
aries for propagation purposes
Hence, he said, each state must take
steps to propagate it's own game. In
order to obtain funds for this pur.
pose the following license fees are
imposed: Local, 81; residents OF
state carrying privilege to hunt in
any section of the state; SIS; ION
residents, $40. The total fund de
voted to the replenishment and
propagation of game and fish. The
law will be administered by the Con-
servation Commission. 1t will not
apply to the ducking flats on the
Susquehanna River.
Penalties are provided for the
violation of the law.

PUBLIC WHARF AT PERRYVII4LE
Correspondent Points Out Benefit Tc
Be Derived.

A communication by Joseph
Coudon of Henry, appeared in the
Baltimore Sun last week advocating
public wharf below the bridges a.
Perryville, and pointing out some of
the benefits that would accIu
The communication follows:
1t has always been my desire to
see suitable public wharf at Perry
vile. There is none between Char
lestown and Port Deposit, distanc.
of 10 miles. I even went so far as
to obtain promise of an appropri
alton from the County Commission
ers of Cecil county and had survey
and plans made for the work. The
wharf movement did not meet WITH
favor from the railroad interests and
failed. This is however, a suitable
time to take the matter up again.
There is more need for water ship
ments now than ever before. The
State road is built on the bed of the
quehanna river just where steam
boats used to land before the river
was bridged.
A suitable landing can be made
now below the bridges that would
join the State road and virtually be
on the grounds of the United States
powder plant that is under consruc-
tion.
While the need for water shipping
facilities here may at first seem TO
be of local interest only, it is n.orc
than State wide measure. Heavy
motor trucks are bringing building
material here at the expense of tho
State and county roads. Henceforth
water shipments should be a feature
of this locality.
The railroad property of the couh-
try passed from the selfish control
of the separate companies to the
management of one head guided by
the needs of the public and the
Government.
Why not have the steamer Sus-
quehanna stop on her daily trips UP
the river at the old railroad wharf
south of the bridge until better ar
rangements can be completed? The
interest have in this undertaking Is
only what each resident should have.
l have no boats or interest in any.
Freight intended for Perryville
should not be unloaded at Havre de
Grace.
This measure may be Of import
ance to the Federal Government,
State Roads Commission, County
commissioners and the citizens OF
the county.

ARBoR DAY.
Plant A Liberty Tree.

By proclamation of the Governor
Friday, April 5th, is to be celebrated
throughout the State as Arbor Day
the day for the planting OF trees
making beautiful the highways ana
school grounds. While it is a school
holiday and will be so observed in all
of the schools of Maryland, it is also
day on which everyone can help to
make his or her community better
place in which to live.
1t has long been the custom for
parents to plant trees in memory OF
their children SO that as they grow
up the trees may grow up with them,
and help to form the most pleasant
memories around the home.
This year, with so many engaged
in the service of their country in the
army here or upon the battle fields
of Europe, it is suggested that a
Liberty Tree be planted for each one
OF these men, making Arbor Day,
1918, a patriotic celebration. It will
be within day of the first anniver-
sary of our declaration of war upon
Germany.
There is something elevating and
inspiring in planting trees which are
to grow perchance for 200 or 800
years. We cannot have too man,
trees, but if they are to succeed they
must be planted carefully and we'll.
If you cannot get suitable trees from
your local nurseryman, write or
apply to the State Forester, Balti-
more, Maryland, and he will be glad
to supply you from the State Nursery
at nominal cost.

The business OF the American Red
Cross Is ITO aid In the prevention and
alienation of human suffering In
times OF peace and war" 1t was Origi-
naliy organized TO supplement the med
ical services Of armies In dimes OF war.
When the Americas National Red
Cross, by act Of the United States con-
gress, approved January s. 1905, was
Incorporated and placed under govern
meut supervision, its tpurposes-in adj
dition to it's duties In times Of war
were declared to be: 'sTo continue and
carry on hystem Of national and
International relief In time OF peace
and apply the same In mitigating the
sufferings caused by pestilence, fam
Inc, FIRE, floods and other national ca
lamities." This organization has there
fore a great to do at all times;
fer there ia always human suffering TO
be alleviated, but now that the world
is racked with war, Its work Is ire
mendous, and Ii Is doing 1t In way
that should make every man, woman
or child who belongs to the Red Cross
proud to be a member. 1t Is the only
hope of thousands of suffering human
beings and stands between them and
| cold. hunger, sickness and despair. 1t
| Is the instrument by which each one of
us may make himself useful: our only
means of extending helping hands to
the innocent victims of the war.
| No one can start the new year In a
better way than by joining the Red
| Cross and by aiding In the campaign
for new members. In time of war the
Red Cross chapters handle their &C
tivities through various committees
J They undertake to raise and collect
