"A very interesting meeting on be-
half of good roads was held recently
in the courthouse yard. The situa-
tion was canvassed thoroughly and
the meeting adjourned to meet again
at an early date. 1t was stated at
this meeting that the annual tax re-
ceipts that can apply on the roads now
totals about 100000 This amount,
is considered sufficient, if wisely ex-
pended, to greatly improve the con-
dition 6f existing roads To devise
more efficient method of workinyr
the roads seems to be the purpose Of
these meetings. Every good citizen
should be on hand at the next meet
ing and take part in these discussions.

When Mr.. Rhett spoke recently on
the subject of War Savings Stamps he
made the statement that the soldier
today is an absolutely helpless per-
son. When he enters the army he is
no longer able to support himself.
From an Independent sclf-sustaining
person, he becomes entirely depen-
dent. He becomes dependent upon
the folks at home for his clothes, his
food, his arms, ammunition and trans
portation. This truth should not be
forgotten for one moment by those
who stay at home. You do not have
to await Il sale OF Liberty Bonds in
order to do your part in maintaining
the soldiers. Go now and buy W.S.S.
We consider that ample notice has
been given that ALL subscriptions

The Commission for Relief of Bel
gium is making second appeal for
clothing for the Bclgians. This ap-
peal comes through the Red Cross.
The Chesterfield Chapter is expected
to collect at least $40 pounds of cloth
ing though much more than that
amount can be used. The campaign
is for the week Of Sept. % to 80. The
workers in all auxiliaries are urged
to go to work in earnest gathering
servicablc clothing at the time spe-
clhed. II IS not required that all the
clothing furnished be secondhand.
We arc inclined to believe that the
flock Of devils that one time entered
into herd Of swine, and who have
lately made their abode in the hearts
of the Prussians and pro-Germans,
made visit to the Office of The
Advertiser last week. From Friday
Sept. 9th to Friday the 18th our two
gasoline engines refused TO run. Dur
ing that time all the doctoring, mend
ing, cOaXing and cussing that experts
in these various lines could do failed
to make the wheels go round. So we
suggest to our subscribed, who miss
ed their paper last week, to blame it /
on the kaiser and his devils.

APPEALS ARE TAKEN
IN ANNEXATION CASES.

Appeals were filed yesterday in the
Circuit Court at Towson against the
decisions of Judges Duncan and Nc
Lane, rendered on Wednesday, in
which both Judges held that the Balti-
more City annexation law is uncon-
stitutional
A notice of appeal was filed by
Henry H. Dineen, attorney for John
F. McGraw, who sought to have a
writ of mandamus issued requiring n.
Bosley Merryman. County Treasurer,
to furnish him tax bill for only eight
months of the present fiscal year, as
provided by the Annexation bill. In
this case Judge McLane held that the
Annexation law is unconstitutional.
An appeal was also filed by Mr..
Dinneen, attorney for the plaintiff, in
the suit of A. c. Eylee to restrain the
Baltimore County Commissioners and
County Treasurer from collecting an
assessment against Mr.. Eylee's prop
erty for the building of a sewerage
plant at Arlington. In this case Judge
Duncan held that the Annexation law
is unconstitutional.
1t is expected that the record in the
cases will have been compiled today,
and will be rushed to the Court of Ap-
peals. and it is expected that said
Court will render a decision in the
matter as soon as possible.

THE SIGN OF THE CROSS
SHOWN IN PICTURES.
Stereoptican Views Of Awful
Prodigality OF Ancient
Rome.

Last night, in the Maryland Avenue
Methodist Episcopal Church, a de-
lighted audience listened to Wilson
Barrett's great story. The Sign of
The Cross" illustrated with a set of
magnificent stereoptican views. On
the dark background of the awful
prodigality of ancient Rome in the
days of Nero, it brings out most vivid
ly the radiant character, the stead
astness, the heroic loyalty of the early
Christians who, with songs on their
lips, went to death in the arena rather
than deny their faith. The effect is
none the less. and the interest is all
the more, because it is built up on a
beautiful love story.
Altogether, it is powerful sermon,
and when Immediately after it was
finished, a man in the audience re-
quested that it be repeated this COM
ing Sunday night, so that others might
come under its spell, the request was
promptly agreed to.
1t will be given again, therefore, in
the same place, the Maryland Avenue
Methodist Episcopal Church, Sunday
evening, June 2, at S O'Clock. The
public is cordially invited.

Mrs. Lanahan---Hiller Faints
When Brought Up For Hear
inc In Baltimore.

Four women in Mysteries or on the
Marshal Stockham and his deputies
plenty to do in resuscitation when
Mrs. Carrie Lanahan appeared yester-
day before Commissioner Supplee in
Baltimore, for hearing on the charge
of receiving money from the govern
ment as the wife of soldier whom
she married while she had a husband
living
Mrs. Lanahan-Hiller is the woman
who, while married to Walter Lana
han came to Annapolis last November
and was married to Sergeant Virgil w.
Hitler, of the u s. Army.
Mrs Lanahan was the first one of
the quartet to be overcome. She was
highly nervous and wept when taken
before the Commissioner. Then she
tainted. Thereupon her cousin, Mrs.
Mamie Markland, 1867 North Gay
street, screamed and tainted also.
This was too much. for Mrs. Mark
lands sister, Mrs. Ella Knorrs, 1853
North Gay street, and she became
hysterical, as did another woman who
accompanied them.
Marshal Stockham fastened to get a
glass of water for the fainting women
and when he spilled some of it on Mrs
Marklands dress, she revived suffici-
emily to brush it off. All four women
finally recovered and left after Mrs
Lanahan had waived a hearing and
| been released on $1,000 bail.

Out Question Of Successor

Paeraa+;o,, Doo,,,e
Recreation Rooms

Mr.. Guy c. Mitchell. who was loan
ed TO the Recreation Rooms of this
city by the Y. NJ. c. A. War Council,
of New York, is about to leave here.
Mr.. Mitchell, who for some months
past has been in charge of the work
at the Recreation Rsom in Bladen
Street Armory, has been assigned to
duty overseas, and will take leave of
Annapolis on Wednesday next. 1t is
with expression of deep regret, on all
sides, that MIR. Mitchell is withdrawn
from the work here. He has proved
himself to be a man among men, and
is most efficient and capable. When
he took charge of the work at the
Recreation Room he Immediately
brought order out of chaos. He knows
how to handle young men, and does
it in such tactful. pleasant way that
all love him, and through this filial
affection, serve him. 1t is with deep
regret that The Recreation Room must
lose such a capable man as Mr.. Guy
Mitchell. The question of his sue
cessor is being worked out, although
a difficult one, by the Executive Board
of the Council of Defence, who held a
meeting yesterday and appointed
committee to draft suitable resolu-
tions expressive of the appreciation
and esteem in which Mr. Mitchell is
held by his co-workers.
The question of his successor is left
in the hands of the committee COM
posed of DIR. Fell and DR. Burgan.

MARYLAND IS CITED
FOR ITS PATRIOTISM
Crowder Calls Attention To Men
Who Undergo Operations So
They May Enter Army.

The example of Maryland's young
men in voluntarily undergoing minor
Operations in order to enter the mill
.tary service has resulted I'm a letter
being sent out to the draft boards
through the country by Provost Mar
'shal General Crowder, calling upon
other States to do likewise.
Shortly after the first draft call
young man who had been placed i'm
Group b because of a minor physical
defect, went to the Maryland Adju-
tant Generals Office and asked that
AN operation be performed so he
might be made fit for military service
His request was granted and he was
-inducted into the service.
The matter was brought TO the at
'tention of General Crowder and he
sent broadcast a notice, saying:
Maryland, through its Governor,
his Adjutant General and medical
aide cooperating, have already on
their own motion inaugurated this
patriotic cooperation for which par
ties to it volunteer.
Eight registrants from Group b
are on the waiting list in Maryland
and it is believed that Group b regis
trants in that State will very soon be
transferred to Group A"

THREE IN FIGHT FOR
STATE ROADS PLACE
Brown, Of Kent, And Joy, Of
Calvert, Are After Mudd's
State lob.

Reports in political circles today
indicated that a new candidate is in
the field for the position now held
by former Senator John z. Mudd on
the State Roads Commission. State
Senator Brown, of Kent County, is
said to be active in making a fight for
this position.
Sometime ago it was stated that
Thomas Parran, of Calvert County
was slated to succeed Mr.. Mudd
This has petered out and Mr.. Parran
frankly states that he does not ex-
pect to land the job, but today rumor
is current that Mr.. Parran is now
pushing Senator Joy, of Calvert Coun-
ty, for the position. Mr.. Mudd was
in Baltimore today, and admitted that
he considered the fight for the posi-
ton to be now a three-cornered one
between himself. Senator Joy, of Cal
vert, and Senator Brown, of Kent
County.
