CITY Health Officer w. S. Welch
Submits Remarkable Record
For Month Just Ended
NUMBER OF CASES 400

With only II births and Sc deaths
the record of the vital statistics for
Annapolis for the month of October
just ended, is a most unusual one.
OF the deaths, one was legal ex-
ecution; AZ were from pneumonia;
and six were from influenza.
In his report the City Health officer
says of infectious diseases resulting,
complete returns are unobtainable,
but conservative estimates place the
number at over 400. The deaths from
influenza and pneumonia, As, are about
one-tenth of the estimated number of
cases of illness.
The full statement of the health re-
port for the month follows:

PLEBES SCORE
AGAINST REGULARS

The only change in the lineup at
the Naval Academy yesterday after
noon, was the substitution of Raw
lings for Orr at quarter. The latter
turned his ankle yesterday, and was
given a rest today. 1t is uncertain
which will complete the backfield on
Saturday, with Ingram, Roberts and
Butler. Both are Ohio boys and
fourth classmen. Orr played with the
Newark High School eleven, and Raw
lings with that of the University of
Cincinnati Dobie gave the team lot
of practice in getting off the forward
pass this afternoon, and then gave the
ball to the fourth class team so that
the regulars could have some prac-
tice in stopping them. The new mid
shipmen were very much pleased
when a touchdown was scored on the
regulars from midfield on fine pass

SEVEN SOLDIERS
WIN TO CONGRESS
That Number Of Service Candi-
dates Gain Seats In u. S.
House Of Representatives
INDICATION OF FUTURE

Il That the voters of the nation take
kindly to men who have answered
their coun.ry's call to the colors, is
indicated by the fact that seven candi-
dates for the House of Representa-
tiyes. who are in different branches
of the service, have been elec.ed.
Military service has proved just as
effective as stump speeches in Sc
curing votes, and none Of the Con-
gressmen who volunteered for duty
in Uncle Sans army prior TO the
election is forgotten by their constit-
tuents.
Those members of the House who
entered the Army are: Royal c.
Johnson, OF South Dakota; Florello H.
La Guardia, of New York; Albert
I Johnson, of Washington; John Jacob
/ Rsgers, of Massachusetts; Tom Con-
nally, of Texas; Marvin Jones, of
Texas; and Victor Heintz, of Ohio.
Returns today indicate that all have
been returned TO Congress except
Heintz. who was not a candidate.
Former Congressman Carl Hayden,
of Arizona. who recently secured
commission in the Army, apparently
has been elected to the House.
The race in Arizona was of par
ticular interest, in that both candi-
dates were members of the military
forces. Lieut.. Thomas Maddox, Re-
publican, opposed Hayden, and the
fight was very bitter. Late returns
show Hayden elected, but the result
may be changed on recount. In any
event, the next House will get a SOL
dier member from Arizona.
Congressman Marvin Jones, of
Texas, is celebrating his victory by
peeling "spuds," and cleaning up the
company kitchen at Camp Polk, near
Raleigh, N. c. Private Jones recently
enlisted in the tank corps. He was
sent to Camp Polk for training and
drew an assignment to the kitchen
police soon after his arrival.
Congressman Johnson, of South Da-
kota, is first lieutenant with the
American expeditionary forces, and
was recently wounded in action. He
went to a training camp at Camp
Meade, where he received his COM
mission.
Congressman La Guardia, of New
York, is captain in the air service,
and has done credi.able work. He
received his Endorsement of both the
Democrats and the Republicans in his
district, the Fourteenth, and was OPP
posed only by Scott Nearing, Socialis.
Congressman Johnson, of Washing
ton, is captain in the gas and flame
division.
Congressman Rogers, of Massachu-
setts, is in a field artillery training
camp at Camp Zachary Taylor.
Congressman Connally, of Texas, is
captain in the Adjutant Generals
department. He has been in training
at Camp Meade, but is now i'll with
influenza in Washington.

which is described as one of the

Committed at the moment when

mediate effect OF this outrage, it is
pointed out, will be completely to
defeat Germany's purpose, for it
is now obvious there has been no
real change in government, or, if so,
the new German authorities are i'll
effective.

| This Store Is a
Great Wartime
| Utility
Its Service to the Public Was
Never Greater Than Now. +
When all merchandise was
plentiful, and keen manufac-
turing competition kept prices
down, we thought our service
to the public was praise
worthy. But the whole Nation
has risen to new ideas of what
the word SERVICE" means,
and with the increased demand
for brains, energy and effort,
Americans are just beginning
to realize what they can do.
Bookkeeping today is more
a matter of finding and secur-
ing the merchandise that our
people need, than it is a mat
ter of selling the goods.
If scarcity exists (and that
is quite common), it is our
work to secure the share that
belongs to that part of the
community that we serve.
If distribution must be con-
served and equalized, it is our
part to see that each customer
is taken care of.
If prices advance unduly, it
is our part to secure advance
/ supplies and hold prices down
| to the last moment possible.
So. nowadays, we must work
with keener vision, wiser
judgment and continuously
thoughtful care, that we may
be worthy of the RESPONSE
bility that is ours and the trust
that our patrons have in US.
Judge of what we have re-
Gently accomplished by view
ing the splendid stocks now
assembled here-the complete
ness of the variety, the high
quality standards and the fair
prices. But bear in mind that
future supplies of many things
are most uncertain, <and the
blame should not be ours if
you do not secure your share
of these comforts and neces-
saries while they are here for
you to select and own.
