HOME HOSPITALITY
AND ". c. c. SERVICE
Service Men Praise Annapolis
People Who Have Enter
tanned Them
OPEN HOMES ON SUNDAY

Many of the families of Annapolis
and vicinity are awake to their re-
sponsibility in providing home hos
pitality for men in the u. S. Service.
Many homes have been open Sunday
after Sunday and have given that
touch of home and friendship which
the human heart naturally Graves. The
men have been most extravagant in
their prasie of the people who have
entertained them and their gratitude
should be an adequate reward to those
who have rendered this kind of
service.
However. the greater part of the
Service Men, of whom there are some
two thousand stationed at Annapolis.
are left no place to spend Sunday aft
ernoon, with no touch of home hospi-
tality or personal friendship. There
is no greater service the people of a
community can render the Army of
Democracy than by manifesting the
true spirit of brotherliness to the men
in uniform. These men have left their
own homes and have gone forth to
fight for the ideals that gave birth to
the American nation. What could be
more patriotic than to furnish them a
touch of that hospitality, friendship,
and home life which they. for the time
being, have left behind.
The War Camp Community Service
is willing and ready to assist the peo-
pie of this community in getting in
touch with the men whom they would
invite to their homes: every week it
has been bringing dozens of men TO
the State Armory where they have
been met by people who have taken
them to their homes for Sunday din
ner and entertainment; it has never
failed to supply men when the invita-
tion has been given a day or two in
advance. An invitation with informa-
tion as to how many men are desired
and when they will be met, left with
the War Camp Community Service at
the State Armory. Telephone 176-w
will not fail to meet the Service men.

CITY TO HAVE NEW
FIRE ENGINE SOON
Council Takes Bull BY The
Horns And Provides Adequate
Fire Protection In Town
NEW HOSE IS PAID FOR

Something in the nature of fire
department meeting of the City Coun-
Gil was held last night. The meeting,
d special one, called for the purpose,
resulted in the determination to pur-
chase a new fire engine for the city
fire department.
The new apparatus, whcih is sadly
needed, will cost $10.500. and of this
amount the Independent Fire Com
pany will pay $4,000 1t is to be fur
nished by the American La France
Fire Engine Company and will not be
delivered for four or five months yet.
The purchase was determined upon
after the whole question of the press
ing need of better fire protection had
been gone into by the Fire Department
Committee This committee, after con-
sultation with Fire Marshal Basil and
committee of firemen, unanimously
recommended the immediate purchase
of the engine.
In addition to planning for the pur-
chase of the new engine the council
last night also approved the bill for
|. 500 feet of new fire hose. This new
hose. which was recently purchased,
has been delivered and has undergone
the required pressure tests by the fire
departmnt 1t cost s1.10 per foot, or
81. $50.

.SNOWDEN APPEAL
SEEMS LIKELY TO
COME TO NAUGHT
Keen Interest Felt In Chances OF
His Attorneys Getting Record
Before Appellate Court
STATE NOT TO STAND
FOR FURTHER DELAYS
Would Be Practically Impossible
Now To Retry The Famous
Brandon Murder Case

With the near approach of the time
limit in which his attorneys can get
themselves ready TO formally comply
with the legal requirements for
hearing in the Maryland Court of An
peals, keen interest has revived in the
case of John Snowden, the alleged
murderer of Mrs. Lottie May Bdandon.
The last entry in the case in the Of
flee of the Clerk of the Circuit Court
for Baltimore at Towson, where the
case was filed under motion for
change of venue, shows on May Is, q
grant of a further extension of time
for fifteen days for preparing the ex-
ceptions. The Court of Appeals pre-
liminary docket for the October term
of Court has been prepared and issued
and does not contain the proposed and
much-discussed appeal from the rul-
ings of Judge Frank l. Duncan. and so
far as is publicly known, the excep-
tions and the record have not been
prepared or sent to the printer. The
time in which the record from the low
er court can be filed will expire within
a comparatively short time now, and
if this action is not taken within that
limit, the case will drop right back TO
where it was the day Judge Duncan, at
Towson, after the accused had been
found guilty, imposed the death SEN
tence.
When this occurs, il is very gener-
ally understood that the prosecution
will, without allowing any further
waste of time. ask that the record
from the Towson Court be sent to the
Governor for his signing of the death
warrant
1t is pointed out that the State has
gone as far as it can be expected to
and that to risk any further efforts at
delay might result in serious mis-
carriage of justice. The witnesses in
the case as originally tried are now
scattered, one of them being in the
trenches in France.

DOCTOR MURPHY
IS MADE COUNTY
HEALTH OFFICER
Vacancy Filled Without Fight
When DR.. Perrie Declares He
Is Not Candidate
APPOINTMENT GIVES
SATISFACTION TO ALL
Only Claim Against DR.. Perrie
Was That OF Inaccesibility For
Important Duties Of Place

DR.. James J. Murphy, was today ap-
pointed Health officer of Anne Arun-
del County. Dr. Murphy's appoint
ment was made unanimous by the
Board of County Commissioners to
fill the vacancy caused in this import
ant position by the recent resigna-
tion of former Health officer Walton
II. Hopkins. who has accepted COM
mission as Captain in the Medical
Corps of the United States Army
The appointment was made without
opposition after Dr. A. II. Perrie, of
the McKendree section of the Eighth
district, the only other candidate, had
Withdrawn from the fight for the posi-
ton. The opposition to DIR. Perrie.
which had developed among some of
the members of the board and in the
county, was not at any time an opposi-
ton to him personally. The only
question involved as between the two
men was the fact that of the import
ance of having the health officer CEN
trally located and of easy access to all
parts of Anne Arundel
1t was largely through this neces-
sity that DIR. Hopkins, in rendering his
resignation to take effect immediate
ly, had asked DR.. Murphy to act for
him, pending the election of a per-
manent successor. The action of Dr.
Perrie in withdrawing from the fight
met with general approval. and the
appointment of DIR. Murphy has proven
equally satisfactory to all concerned

SING FOR LIBERTY
AT THE ARMORY
Many Homes Represented In Pa
triotic Community Singing,
Led BY Director Bouvier
MISS GUTMAN SINGS

Everybody packed up their troubles
in their old kit bag Tor their knitting
bag) and smiled, smiled, smiled, at the
State Armory last night, where the big
community Sing was held
How could they help it, with such
leader as Mr. Edward Bauyier, Direc-
tor of Camp Singing. from Camp
Crane, Pa, whose smile is contagious,
and whose personality is most charm
ing. Indeed, Mr.. Bouvier inspired the
whole evenings program with patrio-
tism. good humor and put the neces-
sary pep into the Liberty Sing that
made things "go." From the first mo-
ment he welded his baton, smiled and
gave things a start, he won the favor
of all present, and had his audience
with him. They sang with a vim,
opening the evening with one verse of
the Star Spangled Banner, then in
quick succession there followed "Over
There" "The Long. Long Trail" Its
Long Way To Tipperary," with Pack
Up Your Troubles" as a chorus, Hail,
Hail, the Gangs All Here" First, the
men sang, then the ladies, and again
only the service men, each trying to
out-sing the other group, and the ef-
feet was inspiring.
AS an intermission, delightful solos
were sung by Miss Elizabeth Gutman,
whose voice is wonderfully musical,
and whose tones are pure, clear and
true. Miss Gutman sang herself into
the hearts Everybody present, and
she choose pleasing repertoire Her
aria from Italian opera was superb,
and in it she rose to supreme musical
heights. She delighted her audience,
who gave her an ovation. Miss Gut
man is always sure of warm well
come in Annapolis, where her exquis-
ite voice is so much enjoyed and ap-
preciated.
The closing numbers, led by Mr..
Bauvier, included "K-k-k-k-Katy." the
male portion of the singers. persisting
in singing "cowshed" for "woodshed," I"
over which the moon shines, but which
in no way detracts from the popular
song.
Joan of Arc was well sung, and
the program of most successful
Liberty Sing closed with America,
sung with vim.

ANNEX ISSUES RULED
ON BY Mr.. MARDURY
Marriage And Traders Licenses
Obtained In City Or Counties,
Says Attorney General
COURTS MUST RULE ON 1T
WILL BE OPENED IN THIS COUNTY
BY A PATRIOTIC MASS-MEETING

State Comptroller Hugh A. McMul-
len having asked for ruling on the
questions, acting Attorney-General
Ogle Marbury has held that persons
desiring to obtain either a license to
marry in the new annex or to conduct
the business of trader therein may
apply to either the Clerk of the Court
of Common Pleas of the city or to the
Clerk of the Circuit Court of Balti-
more or Anne Arundel county, ac-
cording to whether the place in which
the marriage is to take place or the
business is to be conducted was for
merly a part of Baltimore or Anne
Arundel county.
Mr. Marbury refers to the fact that
Judge Hammond Urner, of the Court
of Appeals. recently decided that the
criminal jurisdiction of the city was
extended to the Annex on June 1. And
adds:
Under these circumstances, / ad-
wise you that the Clerk of the Court
of Common Pleas, when applied to,
should issue traders licenses to per-
sons desiring to sell goods in the an
nexed territory, and he should issue
marriage licenses to persons desiring
to be married within that territory.
If, however, / should be asked by the
Clerks of Baltimore county or Anne
Arundel county what they should do
under similar circumstances I would
advise them to issue similar licenses
in cases where the territory in ques-
tion was formerly within the limits
of their respective counties, mas
much as appnc ans fer 'hese license )
nay prefer 10 act undt county Ii
ceases and the question i one whi. +
have no power or authority to ie-
eide 1t must eventually be decided
in The courts
MY duty IS 10 advise public off,
c,als when lhey ask what ttey should
do under the circumstances. Private
individuals must choose for them
selves the jurisdiction whicn they pre-
fer and take the consequent risk.
Public officials. in the absence of a
decision by the appellate court,
should allow an applicant to choose
his own Jurisdiction, and issue the
licenses sked for"
