LAID TO REST
Remains of William H. Bealer Buried
In St. Anne's Cemetery-Services
At His Late Residence

The funeral services over the re-
mains of William Bealer, aged 50
years. whose death after brief ill
ness of few hours. occurred on Sat
urday morning, took place yesterday
afternoon from his late residence on
Duke of Gloucester street.
The services were conducted by the
Rev II. Wilson Burgan, pastor OF the
First Methodist Episcopal Church.
The pallbearers were Messrs. Wal
lace. Benjamin and Frank Bealer,
three sons of the deceased, and
Messrs. Lewis Hopkins, Joseph
Thomas and Charles Hill.
There were numerous and hand
some floral tributes. The interment
was in st. Anne's Cemetery. Funeral
Director George Woolley was in
charge of arrangements.
The deceased had many friends who
paid their last tribute to his men,
ory. He was one of the few octo-
genarians left in Annapolis, asso-
ciated with times that tried mems
souls" He was in the Civil War, and
was identified with the days long ago
in Annapolis when the Governors
Guards 1.-THE State Militia) was in ex-
istence. At that time he was fifer for
the Guard as he had been in the early
days of the Naval Academy, when the
Midshipmen marched to fife ana

played the fife as a recreation up to

RUSSIA MAY'ENERCE
FROM PRESENT PAIN
To: A "Re-Birth of Real Freedom,
With Full Realization Of Her
Great Ideals"
SAYS DR.. ERNEST U. WILKINSON
Lecture At St. Johns on The Russian
Revolution" The BoIsheviki
Not Responsible For Rus
sia's Present COLLAPSE.

Once again, Annapolis, through ST.
Johns College, has had the rare pleas
ure of hearing a lecture by DR. Ern-
| est U. Wilkinson, of Cambridge and
oxford, who will hardly need to be re-
| called to the memory of those who
have listened to him in past years.
Formerly his addresses have been
on literary subjects, but, by request of
DR.. Fell, he took last night at his sub
ject the Russian Revolution as one of
special interest at this time, when the
eyes of all the world are turned to
/ Russia
The historic background of the
present revolution was described and
the lecturer pointed out that when
Russia became a nation under Peter
the Great, conditions were such that
autocracy was necessary, but that the
later Cars frustrated the natural
course of the evolution by insisting
upon autocracy when the people had
reached a higher stage of develop
ment.
Some abortive attempts at reform
appeared from time to time, as in the
decree for the emancipation of the
Serfs, but, DR.. Wilkinson explained
that the famous measure was really
very little effective since the Serfs, al
though nominally emancipated, re
mained actually in bondage and in
practical slavery to their former mas
ters.
The course of events under the late
Car was sketched, stress being laid
on the effect of the growing industri-
al life of the nation upon revolution
ary sentiment
This was shown by the frequent
riots and strikes which took place dur
ing the nineties, and the interval up
to the present war The Red Sunday
of 1905, with its frightful massacre of
unarmed men, women and children by
the troops of the Gar, was a striking
instance of the real temper of the
former ruler of Russia.
IL was very natural that the pres
ent reaction from such extreme of
tyranny should be in the direction of
extremes of revolution.
The lecturer was of opinion that
the Bolsheviki government was not
primarily responsible for the present
Russian collapse and he expressed the
belief that there was every hope that
Russia might emerge from her pres
ent pain and travail to a re-birth of
real freedom with a full realization of
her ideals

EDUCATORS MEET
At SEASIDE CITY
Heads Of Nations Schools and Col
leges There
WANT EDUCATOR IN CABINET
To Call For Reconstruction of Whole
System-Dr. Crabtree Says U. S.
Must Help In Education Of
Russians.

Educational ideals and policies, and
their readjustment and reconstruc-
tion to meet changing world condi-
tions will be the principal result to
be accomplished by the annual con
vention of the department of Super
intendents of the National Education
al Association which convened yester-
day at Atlantic City
The organization includes in its
membership the superintendent and
administrative officers of the public
country. There will be about 5000
delegates.
Chief among the moves to be ad-
vocated by the association will be the
establishment of education as a sep
arate department of the government
with the head of the department a
cabinet officer.
The work accomplishment by the
convention is to be reviewed by a
commission of the leading educators
of the country, and the recommenda-
tions of that commission will be sent
broadcast. A federal program for the
re-education of crippled soldiers will
also probably be adopted.
"One of the biggest problems which
this country and the rest of the
world faces" said Dr. ]. w Crabtree,
of Washington, secretary of the asso-
citation, at the Traymore, "is that pre-
sented in Russia, where only about
three per cent of the masses can
recognize their own names when writ
ten.
1--WE must help to educate those
millions of people, and it is right in
that point that this country is lack
ing. We are the only country of any
prominence in the world which does
not rank education with its other gov
ernmental departments.
'At the present time education is
represented by bureau in the Depart
meIt of the Interior, with United
States Commissioner p. p Claxton al
its head This burau is doing work
of untold value, but should be expand
ed and its head should be a cabinet
member
Changed world conditions demand
new educational policies. The school
systems must be changed, but just
what changes must be made are not
yet apparent We must think of
America in its relation to the rest of
the world. We are planning to help
in the restoration of schools over in
war-torn Europe"
Many institutions which are inter
ested in higher education will be rep
resented at the convention, including
many universities, engineering socie-
ties and kindred organizations The
National Society of Engineers is one
of those bodies.

TO ENLARGE MEADE
BY.F|FTY PER CENT.
Work AOf Adding To CantOnment
1IJa9Near Annapolis to Start
In Early Spring
TO BE REPLACEMENT CAMP
More Than Fifty Thousand Men To Be
CHARTERED There-Thousands of
LabOrers Are To Be Employed

Camp Meade, located in the upper
part of Anne Arundel. is to be made
the biggest National Army canton
ment in the country, the plan of the
War Department being to increase the
accommodations there by about fifty
per cent. This is the information con-
tanned in dispatches published this
morning. The work of enlargement is
TO be started this spring, it is said,
and its conduct will again throw the
big camp open to thousands upon
thousands of laborers of all classes.
1t was learned today that plans
have been perfected for the enlarge
ment of the cantonment nearly so
per cent. Thus several million dol
lars more is to be spent there and
provision will be made for the ac-
commodation of approximately $4,000
men. 1t is understood that the fed
eral authorities will not require any
more land than that already in hand
to make the extensions desired and
it has been stated that work will be
begun early in the spring.
Those who know about the plans
are rather sphinx-like, but it is ru-
mored that Meade is to be a big re-
placement camp for all branches of
the service. Selected men will be
sent there and trained in those com
blatant branches of the service in
which they are deemed to be most
proficient. Then, as they are needed,
they will be sent "over there" to fill
gaps which have been caused in units
through the wastage and losses of
battle
1t was recently reported from
Washington that the General Staff
has under consideration the plan to
convert Meade and other cantonments
into replacement camps, but it is now
believed the authorities have deter
mined to go step further with
Meade. Rumor has it that the Base
Hospital is to be greatly enlarged
and that large number of wounded
from "over there" will be sent there
to recuperate.
1t was said today that the Washing
ton authorities consider Camp Meade
an ideal site for a replacement camp
and a hospital, as while neither North
or South it has as good a climate and
is close to the various points of en-
barkation along the Atlantic Coast.
These plans. it was stated, will not
interfere with the movement of the
10Th Division, under the command of
Major General Joseph E. Kuhn. The
training of the men has not yet been
completed and all of the units are
not up to war strength. More men
are coming in every day, however, and
there are no delays in the training.
Thus it will not be very long before
the 10Th will be on its way in the
cause of democracy.
Under the new arrangement those
men selected for service in the second
draft from Maryland and Pennsyl-
vania may not be sent to Camp Meade,
particularly if they are to go into new
units to be organized. The new plan,
it is said, will prevent the hampering
of training and many obstacles which
were encountered under the operation
of the system at first will be over
come
