VICTORY SUNDAY
NOVEMBER II
Churches To Celebrate With
Thanksgiving And
Prayer
ALL TO GIVE THANKS

Protestant. Catholic and Jew will
celebrate Sunday, November II, as
Victory Sunday. by holding special
services of prayer and thanksgiving.
The idea was conceived on Monday
at a meeting of the Minis .erial Union
in Baltimore, following the peace
news from overseas, and although the
clergymen participated in the celebra-
tion on Monday. it was felt that some
definite expression of thanksgiving to
Almighty God should be given for the
and naval forces in crushing the Ger
success of the United States military
man Army. and causing its uncondit-
ional surrender.
Protestant. Catholic and Jewish
congregations have approved the
plan of celebration outlined at the
Monday meeting. and all are cooper
ating to make the celebration general
and complete. A special message has
been issued by Bishop Murray to all
the Protestant Episcopal clergymen
and laymen of the Maryland diocese
calling upon them to assemble in their
respective places of worship on. next
Sunday and there in public services
offer special prayers for the glorious
victory achieved by America and its
Allies.
The same is true of the other Prot
estant denominations, and, without
exception, the entire plan was quickly
make the celebration worthy of the
momentous occasion. The laity, as
well as the clergy, is interested in the
plans, and at every service in every
church next Sunday will be heard ad-
dresses, sermons, prayers and hymns
and all intended to pay honor to the
Diety for the triumphal march of the
soldiers of the Allies and to do honor
to the soldier boys themselves.

THIRD DAYS WORK
IN UNITED WAR DRIVE
Amount Collected For Campaign
Yesterday Was
$2,469
STILL SO PER CENT SHORT

The total collected yesterday in the
United War Work Campaign was
$2,469, making a grand total of $3.50
66 for Annapolis. Inasmuch as the
quota has been increased so per cent.
this is still 33 per cent under l., and
there is still much hard work to be
done before the full amount needed
from Annapolis can be raised
The reports from the outlying dis
tricts show very generous subscrip-
tions, and it looks as if some of the
districts might subscribe 200 per cene
OF their original quota instead of the
$50 per cent asked for as the result
of the signing of the armistice.
During the campaign the workers
meet every day at the Armory at
lunch to listen to suggestions, make
reports, and compare notes. These
meetings have been found most help
full and inspiring, and have no doubt
resulted in making the work more
efficient. Yesterday, Col Harry j.
Hopkins, chairman of the last Lib
erty Loan committee, made a very
inspiring speech, and expressed his
confidence that Annapolis would
meet the highest expectations and sur
pass them. In order to do this, it will
be necessary for everybody to do his
utmost during the remaining days of
the campaign. Annapolis will not fall
behind any section of the country in
patriotism and public spirit, as has
been proved in the past, throughout
the entire history of the country.

Dr Perry was at Evian and saw the
great army of repatriots pouring
through after three years of German
captiyity. They were coming in at the
rate OF fifteen hundred a day. He saw
women who had been enslaved, some
carving boche babies. 1T was the
most pitiful picture of hopelessness l
ever saw. he said. These women had
come to believe that all hope had pass
ed from the world, but as they dragged
themselves from the train, they found
the smiling Red Cross workers and
tbe representatives of their own gov
ernment waiting for them. The Ameri-
can Red Cross to feed and clothe
them and give them a new start in
life
These people are being sent back
because they are industrial discards.
Germany has sapped the very life out
OF them. They are children under ten,
mothers with large families, men past
dtjy with now and then a younger
man i'll or crippled. Each train is met
BY automobiles and ambulances with
Red Cross chauifeurs. Those who are
IN are sent to the hospital Thous-
auds of homeless old men, women and
children are helped to establish livable
homes with some fuel, furniture,
clothing and food The American Red

The Secretary said, in part:
THE shipping bill. presented in
1914 as the first preparedness meas
ure for national defense as well as for
expansion OF national commerce,
should have Immediately become a

Even after this filibuster postponed

House and twenty Republicans and

pick flaws here and there in the grea'

and quality of the achievement have
made laughable their policy OF pin

In his statement Secretary Of Labor
Wilson accused the Republicans Of
having harried the Administration
constantly. They had, he said, criti-

at time when a definite reply as to
activities would have revealed infor-
nation OF Importance to the enemy,
endangering the lives OF American
soldiers.
"Tbe real reason for the partisan
activity of the reactionAry Repub-

beneficial to the great mass Of the

the statute books and q more sympa-
