The Railroad Situation.

That the railroad from Brandywine
to Mechanicsyille will be saved and
that operation will be resumed Is nov
practical certainty. Citizens Of
Charles county and the upper part Of
ST. Mary's should feel greatly en-
couraged. Certainly they have work
ed hard to prevent the scrapping oil
the road, which had been sold for Junk
and the work Of tearing up the rails
begun. This was prevented by an In.
junction, after which a new company
was formed to buy the road, with the
result that terri OF sale have been
agreed upon an, - OF the money
raised. The new CON ny pays sl25,-
900 for the road. Ten thousand Of
this has already been subscribed in
cash and will be applied as part pay.
ment together with $4,000 loaned BY
the National Government. This leaves
s65, 600 to be raised through subscrlp.
zion TO the capital stock OF the new
company.
A meeting will be held at Mechan,
icsville today Thursday, May 10th,
when 1t is hoped the balance OF the
stock win be subscribed. All citizens
OF st. Mary's arc invited TO attend the
meeting, when men who have been
identified with saving the road will
present all tho facts IL the matter, and
plans will be formulated to complete
the purchase OF the road and put IT IN
operation.

Important That No Other Funds Be
Raised During Red Cross Week.

There is one feature Of this campaign
which can have u value almost beyond
estimation; this is, largely increased
public interest and corporation in
Red Cross activities. Every eontribut-
or should be made to feel that he or
she is giving directly to his or her
Red Cross, and that every cent given
viii be applied to the care Of our sick
and wounded soldiers, and to hcarten
and strengthen our Allies. Without
doubt, the force OF this appeal win be
minimiyed L any attempt IS made to
raise other funds in connection with
Red Cross week. and sbe War Council
OF the American Red Cross most urg-
emily requests that Red Cross solicita-
ton should have full 'right-of-way''
