CONVENIENT FOR WORK

Within three months. the congrega-
tion of KneseJh Israel, the Hebrew
Church of Annapolis. will be occupy
ing the dignihed and handsome church
building at the corner of Prince
George and East streets. which has
heretofore belonged to st. Anne's Prot
estant Episcopal Church. and which
has been conducted as a mission. with
regular services up to a short time ago.
The definite arrangements have been
made for the transfer of the owner
ship though the actual transfer awaits
certain matters, including the sale OF
the building now used by the congre-
cation. However. the transfer OF con-
troll has been effected, and the building
will be thoroughly renovated and re-
decorated before the services OF the
Hebrew congregation begin.
The Rabbi of the local congregation
is the Rev. II. b. Zenitz, and the presi-
dent is Louis Stern. A building COM
mittee of ten. representing some of the
citys most prominent business men,
has had the matter of securing the
building I'm charge. It's chairman is
Aaron l.. Goodman, and Oscar Shacks
has been very active member of IL.

600 was necessary before a lot could
be secured, situated as they wished,
and the building constructed. They
have now obtained this splendidly sit

sum of $4,000 They feel, indeed, that
the result is a matter for great felici-
tation among themselves. or course,
a considerable amount will be spent in
changes and repairs, but the whole
sum should not be half of what was
thought to be necessary.
No better location could be found
for the work of the Hebrew congrega-
tion, as the chapel is in the heart of
the city, and convenient TO the Naval
Academy, there always being good
representation of the Hebrew faith
among the midshipmen. While the
special work for which the chapel was
constructed has not succeeded as had
been hoped, particularly because the
enlargement of the Academy grounds
caused many of the people, among
whom the work was to go on, to move
away, no better place could be found
for a congregation drawn from all
parts of the city.

WAR WORK FUND
A MILLION EXCESS
Money Continues To Pour In From
Counties And More
Expected

Although the United War Work
drive came TO an end Monday, on the
part of Maryland, il is reported to be
in excess of the States quota, over a
million dollars. and money continues
to pour in.
H. o. Williams, the State campaign
director, reported that total of S19,-
SAL additional had come in from the
counties yesterday. Caroline county
sent $1.100 additional; Hartford county.
$685.; Frederick county. S4.954;
Washington county, $500: Carroll
county. S3,4oO, and Garrett county. 81
470. while the colleges reported 81 ,452
extra. From $4,000 to $4,000 more is
still expected.
Maryland leads all of the States of
the Eastern division in the drive-a
fact that has everywhere been COM
mented upon with qualification and
which has brought the leaders in the
work hearty congratulations
John W. Cook, director of the East
ern division, telegraphed to headquar-
ters as follows: THE success of your
remarkable campaign challenges adj
miration of all and makes for great
service in behalf of our boys at home
and overseas"
Mr.. Williams expressed his sincere
appreciation of the splendid co-opera-
tion and enthusiasm of the campaign
workers throughout the city and State.
Mr.. Williams said, "The best part of
oil - l.
vailed. Who's who was forgotten, as
well as all distinctions of pride, class
and creed. A snob would have had a
very poor showing anywhere in our
organization"

1--WE HAVE NO FRIENDS"

Philadelphia Public Ledger: why
have We no friends?"
This on the testim Tony of an Ameri-
can lady just returned from Germany
is "the eternal question" ever and
everywhere heard in that mighty en-
pire, once all conquering and conf
dent, now depressed by defeat,
doomed and damned.
Even a bespectacled German cannot
escape this stunning truth. His be-
loved fatherland is utterly without
friends. No matter which way he
looks he sees unwilling satellites.
shivering "neutrals" who hate and
fear him, and open enemies that cover
the earth. We sometimes laugh at our
long list of allies against Germany.
But the German does not laugh. 1t
means that the condemnation, the
contempt, the distrust, the disdain of
the entire world have avalanched up
on his head. The great case on trial
before the grim court of last resort
might be fairly listed as 'Hohenzol-
lern VS.. Humanity.
But why has Germany no friends?
When one comes to look at it, it is
extraordinary that the great duel for
which the world waited between the
triple alliance and the triple entente
should have found the rest of the ma
tons all on one side. Public opinion
is not usually so unanimous in any
war. But in this war even one mem

empires stand absolutely alone, with
only Turkey, which they bought, bam-
boozled and bullied, and, Bulgaria,
which rose from the hospital cot in
search of revenge. What are the rea-
sons for this shameful isolation?

that this is one Of the things Senator Lewis
doesn't know, but he feels sure OF his ground.
He saws the next presidential campaign will be
waged on issues growing out of the peace con

Very likely he is right, but nobody, not even
the senator himself, knows For the same cam

A MYsTIFYING INCIDENT.

Apropos of the various and conflicting con-
lectures as to the outcome Of the present bat
ting and end of the strange tale comes
from Cleveland, Ohio, of a man who remarked
a month ago that battle virtually decisive
of the conflict would be in progress on Sep
tember seventh. Asked incredulously on what
authority he spoke, he replied that he did not
know how he knew it but that he seemed tc
have ways of knowing things that were myster-
ious to himself Perhaps his hearers could tell
how it was that he knew that one OF them,
whom he indicated, had eleven dollars and sew
enty-eight cents in his right hand trousers
pocket To their unbounded surprise the bills
and coin tota1ed that sum; whereupon he OF
the uneanny knowledge added that the same
man had two sons in the service, one in the
army and one in the navy ''There you are
wrong" was the retort. "My son has tried
twice to get in the navy but has failed. =
Nevertheless, was the reply, 'he is IN the
navy now, as you will soon discover And SO
it proved.
1t may not follow that the prophet will be
right in the decisive battle he predicts, but this
incident which is related on the authority OF
one of the two men it surprised, shows how life
is hedged about with mystery and what mex
plcable capacities for glimpsing truth are part
of the unrecognized endowment of the latent
possibilities of mankind Like his environ
ment, man is infinitely more marvellous than he
realizes and is more likely to have the fact
brought home to him III the tremendous nerv-
GUS tension of times like these.
