REVIVAL after War
EPISCOPAL CLERGYMAN SIZES
RADICAL RELIGIOUS
CHANGE COMING.

Watertown, May 18.-That a great
religious revival and reformation in
which many old practices and denom-
national divisions may be obliterat-
ed, as well as a political and econom-
ic reconstruction is to follow the
world war, was the opinion expressed
here by DR.. James E. Freeman, rec
tor of st. Marks Episcopal church,
Minneapolis, who delivered the an
nual convention sermon at the open
ing of the Gath annual convention of
the South Dakota Sunday School as
ISOLATION.
What changes in the churches as
they are today, he continued, may be
wrought he did not dare to ~foretell,
but he hoped the new church would
permit nothing hat will be inimical
to the best welfare of the Christian
religion. He said the time Is draw
ing near when all who profess belief
in Christ Jesus r to kneel at a
common altar. DR.. Freeman made
the assertion that the insular church,
which will not join in cooperation
with other Christian churches
should be banned from the kingdom
of God"
France, he said, is leading the way
in this great religious revival which
has already started In the countries
of the allies. For long, he said, there
has been no lack of faith at the front,
but now the revival is spreading to
the people at home. The same great
change is to sweep over America and
over England to a greater extent
than 1t has already, before the war
ends, he said.
DR.. Freeman spoke of the condi-
tions at the American environments,
stating that they provided cleaner
places, morally and physically for the
young men of America to live than
any other place. The states of this
nation, he concluded, will come out
Of the war mot disunited, as they
have been in the last several years in
all but business and money relations,
but as a greater, more glorious Unit
ed States which has found it's SOUL

AT CAMP CODY


Sioux Falls, May 18.-South Da-

France for some time, according to
a report that has gained circulation
in Washington, and which has Meth
war department on the ground that
to discuss ii at all would be to out
line troop movements, which is for
hidden by censorship.
The report has 1t that the cath di-
vision of national guard at Camp
Cody will remain there for the pres
ent, where 1t will be available If

rhe dispatch from Washington
follows:
Selection of Brig. Gen. John A.
Johnson, retired, as commanding of
ficer of n of the brigades of this
division, has given color to the re-
port. He is ineligible for overseas
service, and 1t Is assumed, therefore,
his brigade will not be sent so long
as he Is in command. The war de-
partment refuses to confirm or deny
the report on the ground that to de-
cuss 1t at all would be to outline
troop movements, forbidden by the
censorship.
Members of congress are receiv-
ing letters from officers and men at
Camp Cody protesting at the present
inaction and urging action to expe-
dite movement of the division. In
one of these letters to congress from
a state represented in the division a
soldier wrote:
1--WE have been here in Camp
Cody, tossed about by s~andstorIs,
and filled with sand for months, and
at this writing we are afraid we are
going to be here forever. In this
camp are $4,000 volunteers, ME
who gave themselves of their own
free will to their country's service,
and yet drafted men who came into
the service after we did r now in
France. 1t makes us all heartslck
I'VE want to get out of here and
do our part. Are we to stay here for
ever, or are we to simply police and
watch the border for fear some vel
low Mexican may come across and
steal some old maverick?
81 want to go and I appeal to you
to give us some word of encourage
ment; to tell us we are not to stay
here forever
There are indications that the

THE CRAB SEASON
NOT A SUCCESS

Dealers in both soft and hard shell

season this year has not been the sue

Many reasons have been given, but
none is satisfactory to either dealer or
patron.
One day there would be a plentiful
supply of crabs and none the next day.
Both soft and hard she'll crabs have
been unusually small this season, and
throughout the entire season have been

they are working at something else.

and most popular in Annapolis, was
unanimously selected at a joint meet
ing yesterday of the Baltimore Clear
ing House and the Liberty Loan Com
mittee for the chairmanship of the
Maryland Liberty Loan Committee.
made vacant recently by the resigna-
tion of Colonel Henry B. Wilcox.
To his brilliant mind and eloquent
tongue much of the successes of the
previous Liberty Loans are due.
Phillips Lee Goldsborough is an inde-
fatigable worker and his patriotism is
fervid to the extreme. Just before the
meeting was called to order, Mr.. Colds
borough said that he was in no sense
a candidate for the chairmanship, but
if the people wanted him he would ac-
cept the responsibility and give the
work the best that was in him.
Colonel Henry B. Wilcox, the retir-
ing chairman, was present at the meet
ing, which was harmonious one in
every respect.

SEWING MACHINE
GOES ASTRAY
Picked Up On The Annapolis Road
And Is Being Held For
The Owner

Even sewing machines get reckless
once in a while, so it seems. Whether
it was a Singer that got tired, of sing
ing its song in the same old place
daily and thought it would make a
change of venue or whether it was a
Wilcox and Gibbs or a Wheeler and Will
son, this article is not prepared to
state, as that belongs to the person
who comes to claim it, 1t is a wise
newspaper who doesn't tell names, on
occasions like this, but leave them for
the claimant of the lost article.
The gist of the matter is a SEWING
MACHINE has been found on the An
napolis road by James Lorens, who is
seeking to obtain information of the
owner through an advertisement in
these columns What puzzles Mr..
Lorens is how that machine got lost
from it's owner? How could any self
respecting machine fall so low as not
to be noticed?
Did the owner take to the woods, or
the Annapolis boulevard, (about the
same thing.) and take the machine for
an outing?
Is the boulevard in need of repair
and did the owner decide that stitch
in time saves nine and for this reason
the sewing machine was left to do its
work?
The finding of the machine remains
mystery Tor its losing) until the
Capital ad brings results, which ii is
sure to accomplish.

WHO STOLE w. S. S.

flee IL War Savings Stamps,
Which Disappeared

A thrilling story could be written
about the person who stole the War
Savings Stamps from a cripple. but if
the facts in the case lead to their re-
turn. that will suffice.
A few days ago crippled man who
had been peddling shoestrings and
other small articles about the streets
went into the postoffice TO mail let
ter. For a moment he laid down a
book containing fourteen War Savings
Stamps and went out of the postoffice,
in the lobby.
He was scarcely out of the office
when he remembered having left the
w S. S. there, and he Immediately re-
turned to find it gone. The man was
terribly distressed, as he had spent all
his earnings to buy those War Saw
ings Stamps and TRIP TO help this coun-
try with the war in the best way he
could.
He reported his loss to the post
Office authorities, but to this date
nothing has been seen or heard of the

picked them up did not know they be-

article in the Capital, may return
them to the postoffice They can easily
