Dick Was Charitable.

At the funeral services for an ell
derby negro of Richmond. Va, the fol-
lowing colloquy was overheard:
"There amt no use in talkin'," said
Nose Barker; "Dick Williams, he was
the most charitable man dis town ever
SEEN"
II reckon dat's so,' said the darkey
to whom Mr.. Barker impaired this
information. And he paused as if
waiting for evidence on this point.
"Yessuh," continued Mr.. Barker,
"Dick Williams, he always owned a
plug hat. and durin' my time l amt
never heard that Dick ever refused to
lend dat hat to anybody"

MERCER NEVER LOST FAITH
Prosecuted Belgian Cardinal Always
Confident That God Would Save
the Unhappy Country.

Cardinal Mercier, archbishop of Ma
lines, Belgium, was not actually i'm
prtsoned by the Germans, but his free
dom was restrained. His offense was
the issuing Of a pastoral letter to his
people in January, 1915. in which he
said: Il have gone through most Of
the places in my diocese which have
been wasted. . What / have

acute fears, 1 could ever have imag-
ined. . Churches. schools. char.

have almost disappeared. God
will save Belgium. my brothers, we
cannot doubt it. Let us say, rather,
he is saving her. Is there a single
patriot who does not feel that glory
has come to Belgium? Which of us
would have the courage to tear out
the last page Of our history? Which
Of us can look without pride on the
splendor of the glory that our muir
dered country has won?"

FARMERS INTERESTED

Splendid Attendance Indicates Agri-

Dorchester County's Farmers In
ing to State officials. Frederick
county was the closest competitor,
having an attendance of $40 people
at all sessions, while the Dorchester
County Institutes were attended by
nearly 1900. This is a record OF
which our county can well feel
proud.
Such splendid attendance indicates
that the farmers of this county are
keenly awake to the fact that the
United States needs more food than
ever before, and that they are taking
every advantage that they may in
crease their production to the maxi
mum.
The speakers gave interesting in
structing lectures on live stock seed

toes.
A summary Of this county shows
that we had six speakers from the
State College of Agriculture who de-
livered eleven lectures to 1142 peo-
pie

LABOR MEETING TO BE
HELD AT COURT HOUSE
Business Men of Town Asked to Help
Solve Labor Problem.

/ There will be a Labor Meeting at
| the Court House on the evening of
March Goth. The United States De
partment of Labor, United States
Department of Agriculture, State
Council of Defense, and the State
College are acting as a unit to aid
the farm labor problem.
1t is believed to be necessary to
organize a farm labor reserve in ev-
cry county throughout the United
States. This will mean making d
registration in all our towns and
cities Of all people who would be
available for some farm work in
case of emergency during harvest
season or any other pressing time.
1t is the business men of our cities
on whom they are depending for this
registration. Accordingly the State
officials have set aside the week of
March 25th to 30th as the week to
organize this farm labor drive
On the 26th of March the United
States Department of Labor will
have an agent visit us. We want to
hold a meeting that night at Cam
bridge. This is the business mans
chance TO show his willingness to aid
on the farm labor drive.
The Government asks that all
business men and others be out to
this meeting. Plans will be made to
help the labor situation. This is
the first attempt to solve our own
problem, and we hope tina all that
possibly can will attend this meeting

PEG and MICHAEL SCORE
in CHARMING COMEDY
Peg O. My Heart" Makes Second
Appearance in Cambridge, And
Plays to Larger Audience Than on
Its Initial Visit.

Peg O. My Heart" the delight
full little comedy, which made the
name of Laurette Taylor famous, anG
added distinction to the name of J
Hartley Manners, who is responsible
for the book. played in Cambridge
last night for the second time. The
play was first acted at the Auditor.
ium, which was later destroyed b!
fire, in the year of 1914, and was
greeted by a packed house. Last
night it made its second appearance
in Cambridge, at the Grand Opera
House, appearing to larger audi
ence than the one which heralded its
! initial visit.
The entire story of the play is laid
in the living room of Regal Villa
Scarboro, England, the home of Mrs.
Chichester, and her two children
Alric, an insipid youth, who has new
er known what it is to work, and
Ethel, a cold, selfish individual, who
considers love rot" and cares for nc
one especially, preferring to bestow
her affections upon her dog. Into
this atmosphere is ushered a daugh-
ter of Ireland, Peg" to comply
with the will of a rich uncle, who
has disregarded Pegs mother because
she did not marry to suit the family
and would fain ease his conscience
by giving Peg good education and
the surroundings which would make
her lady
The Chichesters, On the verge OF
bankruptcy, undertake the bringing
up of Peg, only because a handsome
sum is offered every month to thu
woman who will take the job, AM
Mrs. Chichester attempts to give Pes
training equal to that of her
gnteT. Ethel, to whom Peg is con!
stantly told to have as her model.
But the house is rather chilly for
Peg, and rather than make friends
with either of her cousins, she pre-
fers Michael, her dog, decidedly the
ugliest little animal that one could
ever hope to see. But to Peg he was
beautiful.
In the second act Peg rebels
against the treatment she has re-
ceived from her aunt, and insists on
returning to her father. Before she
decides to leave, however, she saves
her cousin, Ethel, from clipping with
a married man, and in order to save
the girl from humiliation at the
hands of the family, Peg does her
clothes and and tells Mrs. Chiches-
ter that she wore Ethels clothes
and jewels to a dance.
The story has very pleasant end
ing, Peg eventually falling in love
with Jerry, and the curtain goes
down after the Chichesters have re-
ceived word that their bank will pay
out, and they are no longer depend
ent upon charity for a livelihood
