Automobiles Crash

/ DR.. H. F. Nichols, of East New
Market, attended the Eastern Shore,
Delaware and Virginia Medical Asso-
citation, which met Wednesday, July
18th, at Ocean City. On his way
home, at IL p. M, he found DR.. E.
A. p. Jones and family at Shiloh,
broken down. DR.. Nichols towed
the party to East New Market, then
he left his machine in the care of
George Young, who was not his regu-
lar chauffeur, but one frequently
employed by him to drive his car, to
continue with DR.. Jones car in tow
to Cambridge. On his return trip,
Young met Lake Thomas in front of
Frank McWilliams', near East New
Market. Both were holding the CEN
tire of the road, which resulted in a
head-on collision. Thomas threw
his machine to the left, cutting his
running board and fender off the
fright side of his car, while he should
have gone to his right.
DR.. Nichols car was damaged at
least 5000. 1t was raining at the
time of the accident, and who was in
fault will be decided later by the
proper authorities.

nificent horse-racing, pony and auto
mobile events. and the Great Myer-

Communication

On the banks of the Marine our
soldiers have born themselves be-
| yond the manner of the years when
facing the best shock troops of the
German Army. Our Allies and our
| foes now know their valor and their
capacity for learning the art Of war
| in few brief months of training.
In the offensive the Americans and
French are conducting now in France
the Kaiser's military boards, they
are unfolding the wonderful tradi-
| tions of the American army and
bringing joy to the hearts Of all true
| Americans. In the meantime many
of those of our brave boys, together
with the Allies, are paying the price
of victory with their very lives, and
| in the midst Of this great battle
which is now raging the thoughts of
every true American is what have l
done, and what can l do to help my
country in this great time of need?
| And, oh, the Stacker; Lord have mer-
cy on the Stacker, devoid of consci-
ence, worshipping only the dollar,
and refusing to let go that dollar,
when they could let their money
work for the country and at the same
| time work for themselves. Is there
any man or any woman who can
claim they are patriotic and that they
are doing their duty as loyal Ameri-
can citizens, and at the same time
withhold that measure of support
which the Government is calling for
through the lending of their money
through the purchase of War Saw
| ings Bonds or Stamps?
! May / say to the credit of Cam
bridge and Dorchester county, there
are not many slackers, and to those
who are slackers, and who refuse to
respond to the call of their Govern
ment in this hour of need, il you will
permit me, Mr.. Editor, TO publish
their names, I will give you few OF
/ them in the near future, that the mo-
theirs and fathers in this town and
! county, whose sons are fighting our
battles, may know them. 1 claim no
man or woman is loyal to his coun-
| try, and is worthy of being classed
as a good American citizen, who will
not lend money to his country in
this hour of peril, even though he or
she may have TO borrow same by
mortgaging his property or other
! wise, in order to support his country
at this time, and especially so when
one can buy War Savings Bonds or
Stamps that are earning nearly AZ
per cent. Every patriot will show his
loyalty to his country. Lord have
mercy on the slackers They should
be, and must be, treated as undesir-
able residents in any community.

Keeping Ones Back Up

Does it not seem strange that
there are SO many people in the
world who are always looking for
trouble; who seem to seek out trou-
BILE instead of pleasure; who prefer
to be disgruntled and unhappy to be-
ing satisfied and happy, VINO look up
on the dark side of everything and
never see the silver clouds; it is
just as easy to see the bright side,
just as easy to enjoy the brightness
and sunshine of life; just as easy to
see the good in people instead of
that which seems bad; so much
pleasanter to look out for the things
for which one may be thankful in
stead of always looking for misfor-
tune; just as easy to be an optimist
as a pessimist; just as easy to be-
lieve good of ones friends as to be-
lieve evil. To which class do you be-
long?

said in his address to Congress Mon.
day. Their representatives in the
Supreme War Council at Versailles
have by unanimous resolution assured
the people of the central empires that
everything that is possible in the cir
cumstances will be done to supply
them with food and relieve the dis.
tressing want that is in so many plac-
es threatening their very lives; and
steps are to be taken Immediately to
organize these efforts at relief in the
same systematic manner that they
were organized in the case of Belgi-
um." And Premier Clemenceau said
yesterday: "We will maintain, it is
well understood, the blockade during
the terms of the armistice. Neverthe-
less, as the situation in Germany and
Austria is desperate, we will do every
thing possible to feed them that we
can in fairness to ourselves"
Here we have official utterances
from the heads of two of the foremost
nations opposed to the central powers,
and we have the assurance of the Pres

all of the allies as to this policy. Sure
ly there can be no greater evidence
that this victory is a triumph of

brutality of this war, yet these Chris

while the passions Of the struggle are
still uncooled, calmly and unitedly de-
eide upon measures of relief for the
people of the enemy countries. 1t is
the greatest, the most thrilling appli-
cation of the practical principles of
real Christianity the world has ever
known. And however difficult it may
be to bring our individual feelings to
that high standard of right, we must,
now or later, concede that it is as
wise as it is merciful.-Globe Demo-
