as one would care to be during the

HaEdicraft Of the EIind

The Maryland Workshop for the
Blind stands for the betterment OF
the condition Of those deprived of
sight, along all lines. It aims to make
this unfortunate class self-reliant, self.
respecting and as far as possible, SELF
supporting; to help them to help them
selves through work, and above all,
not to pauperize them. At the corner
of Fayette and Paca streets, Balti-
more, Maryland, may be found this ex-
cellent institution. Here daily, like
self-respecting citizens of the world,
come one hundred and fifty blind men
and women, who toll cheerfully and
efficiently. Many of them are from
the counties. To all are given equal
opportunities, and the same handicap
during instruction.
/, Here too, may be found competent
and willing instructors, for the most
part blind, who having mastered the
difficulties which beset the blind, by
example and precept, help others to
overcome. Chair-caning, broom-mak-
ing, Misunderstanding, piano tuning,
weaving, basketry, and switchboard
operating are some Of the crafts
taught
We have one hundred men on our
waiting list. To these will be added
those, blinded in battle, who will come
to us from "over there" The Gov
70 po1f
more, the first station, and to send
soldiers, after convalescence, to we'll
established, existing institutions.
Much may be said of the aptitude,
infinite patience, and efficiency, Of the
blind.
Many of these men are heroes, who
play their quiet part well, in these
epoch making days. For them, no
blare of trumpets, nor the lure Of the
battlefield, but, as surely, will they re-
ceive their "cross of war;" their need
of praise, good and faithful soldier,
we'll done"
Visitors are assured Of a cordial well
come. One visit to the welllighted
plant serves to convince the surprised
patron of the excellence of the crafts-'
manship Of the trained blind. Chairs
are perfectly caned; no better brooms
are manufactured anywhere; the same
may be claimed for other finished
products of their def fingers. ."All
work guaranteed" is true in fact as
we'll as in theory. The customer who
first comes from motives of sympathy,
soon patronizes the institution for its
marked efficiency.
The work for the Blind requires Cash
and contributions can be mailed direct
to The Workshop for the Blind. sol

On The Wheat Fields OF America.

On The Wheat Fields OF America.
When the Duke of Wellington
said, 1.-THE battle of Waterloo was
won on the playing-fields of Elton,
he meant that great college campus
had produced the game, never-say-
die spirit which finally woke Napol-
con up from his dream of world-con-
quest. Now, one hundred years
later, another ambition is running
amuck and upon the wheat fields of
America the victory must be gained
which will prevent the German
Kaiser imposing his will upon the
world.
Month by month, day by day, the
granaries of this continent have to
carry the double burden of main
tanning Americans in ample comfort
and keeping their allies out of
courage-sapping want. The United
States is now in the thick of the most
terrible war in mankinds history;
the only way out is to hew a path
through victory to peace. At mar
ket-time and every meal, at seeding
time and harvest, simple question
stares the States in the face: shall
we starve our allies into submission
and then shoulder alone the stagger-
ing burden of democracy's war or
shall we spare to France and Britain
and Italy the food they must have
and thus win surely through to
Common Triumph? The answer is
easy enough in words. But the
answer must be in deeds, in sacrifice,
and service.
The plain, blunt fact is that we
dare not ask our war-worn allies to
keep going without vast imports of
food-above all, whcat--from Amer
lea, and we must save it for ship
ment. Whosoever thrusts his ap-
petites or his interests between him
self and this vital truth is guilty of
treason against his country's cause.
Three times day one hundred
million people in these United States
have chance to show ON which side
they should be counted and the old
maxim holds good that those who
are not with us are against us. The
economist in exportable foods is a
loyalist. The waster of wheat is a
public enemy and NATIONAL danger.
This war will be won or lost on the
wheat fields of America.

Queensland Leads.

Twice has Congressman Crosser,
of Ohio, introduced his colonization
bill to set aside public lands for the
unemployed. The bill still slumbers
in the Committee on Labor in spite
of the urgent recommendation of its
passage made by Secretary of I.o Dor
Wilson in his report. The bill would
lease public lands to those who
would use them, the government re-
tanning it's title. When hard times
come again, as they surely will,
should the Single Tax fail OF adop
ton, this measure would prove a
great relief. But while Congress
hesitates other places act Queens
land, Australia, has adopted a
measure the same as the Crosser
colonization bill in principle, but
apparently not SO free from defects
The Queensland law reserves for
returned soldiers and other settlers
large tracts of public lands. The
lands are not to be sold to the set.
tiers, but leased only. Unfortunately
the rent, for few years at least
will be less than the rental value
So there must still be opportunities
for unearned increment. For the
first three years there will be ne
rent. Then for the next twelve il
will be | II per cent. of capital value
and after that it will be fixed fol-
periods of Is years by the Rem
Court. Transfers of leases are re
stricted in various ways in the hops
of preventing speculation. 1t woulc
have been much simpler and bette!
to take the full rental value at once
as the Crosser bill provides. Pro
visions are also made for school t.
teach farming to settlers and to pa,
them wages while learning. A funC
is provided for loans on improve
ments or to assist building. Interes
to civilian settlers will be per cent
Soldiers will be charged but 3 u pc
cent. the first year, but must pay !!
per cent. more each year until: tn,
rate reaches per cent.
Defective as the measure is tn,
Queensland Legislature has at teas
taken step in the right direction
When will Congress follow?

The MARYLAND Legislature has run
its course. 1t adjourned OH MOI
day. and the record it made was not
much to be proud of. AS is usually
the case, the campaign promises o.
great things to be accomplished by
the General Assembly failed Amos
entirely to materialize. True there
were hosts of laws passed, of Local
nature, but it is also true there was
very little of really worth whlie
legislation enacted outside OF the
Federal Prohibition Amendment
Good Roads and Annexation.
The race track gamblers, by VII
the of their lobby and Doodle, were
able to defeat all legislation tending
to put crimp in their profltaple'
business, and they will be permitted
to fleece the gullible for at least two
wears more before their wings can De
clipped, as they eventually will be.
Maryland Legislatures have such a
habit of wasting time and money
and disappointing everybody, ina.
we ought to be pretty we'll used to 1t
by this time, but hope springs
eternal, and each session holds out
such alluring prospects of things to
be done that it is maddening to be
confronted regularly after adjourn,
ment with facts, and expense
budgets, that make everyone feel the
game is hardly worth the CANDLE
and if the General Assembly came
about half as often and lasted about
half as long everyone would be just
as we'll satisfied and just as mucn
of real worth would be accom-
plished.

HONOR FLAGS IN LIBERTY LOAN
CAMPAIGN.
Awarded To Towns Oversubscribing
Quota.

Quota.
A new and distinctive feature will
be introduced in the Third Liberty
Loan campaign, and every city or
town in the country which subsc1ibes
more than it's quota of Liberty bonds
will be awarded by the Treasury De-
partment an Honor Flag.
The flag will be SO inches wide
and 81 inches long. The body of
the flag will be white with a broad
red border, and three broad blue
vertical stripes denoting the Third
Loan. The flags, which will be of
the same quality as the flags of the
Navy, are already being manufac-
tured and will be awarded as fast
as the right to fly them is won.
Though awarded by the. Treasury
Department, they will be distributed
by the Liberty loan committees of
the different districts.
There will also be National
Honor Flag for each State, to be
flown at the State capitol, with the
name of each town winning flag
inscribed upon it. There will be
also preserved in the United States
Treasury a National Honor Flag,
with the record of each State re-
corded on it.
Stars, to be placedeon the flag of
each city or town doubling its quota,
will be also awarded, AID an addi-
tional star for each time the quota is
doubled
An Honor Roll, containing the
names of all subscribers, but not the
amount of the individual subscrip-
tions, will be kept in each COM
munity. A window card, bearing a
representation of the Honor Flag,
will be given each subscriber to the
loan, to be displayed at the home or
place of business.
