him have pass on the road when he

Meade for Merchantville. N. j.. where
the lady was awaiting the ceremony.

Of Chapel-Large Audience and
Two Bishops Present.

The blessing OF Epiphany Chapel,
on the edge of Camp Meade. at Oden-
ton, Monday afternoon. was marked
by the reception of eleven soldiers
into the church communion and the
presence of two bishops of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church. A large
congregation attended the dedicatory
services, many coming from nearby
cities.
Rev. Randolph HI. McKim, rector of
the Church of the Epiphany, Wash
ington. perhaps struck the keynote
of the gathering when he declared
that mo matter how much the Ger
mans might destroy of worldly goods,
they could never destroy the Cross of
Christ" Then he read the historic
words of Henry Watterson, in which
it was said that the allied soldiers
must forever hold fast to the Christian
faith. as the enemy had turned his back
on God.
Gen. Nicholson Speaks Praise.
DR.. McKim presented the keys of
the chapel and clergy house to Bishop
Murray of the diocese of Maryland.
who pointed out that the chapel was
for the use of the soldiers of Meade,
regardless of creed, saying that
among the staff of the chapel was
Presbyterian minister besides the
regular Protestant Episcopal clergy
men.
He then presented the building to
Brig. Gen. Nicholson, temporary com
mander of the camp, for the use of

sidered the chapel to be just what
the men needed.

Gas Masks Tempered
With by German Workers

Washington, April 3.-Declaring that
1900 Of a shipment Of 500 American
gas masks were found to have been
tampered with and made defective by
pro-German factory workers in this
country, Senator Thomas, Colorado, to-
day started a blaze of senate fire
against those interfering with war
work.
The masks, Thomas said, were ruined
"by men and women working in the
factory--Americans who are willing to
sell their birthright for consideration
offered by German agencies. Our en-
emies are working-and not all our
enemies are opposed to us in the battle
line."
Thomas maintained that the various
strikes in the country were due to
German propaganda.
FThe man who strikes at this time
is an enemy of the United States" he
said.
Senator Reed vigorously condemned
striking shipyard workers, who, he de-
clared, "are starving and defeating
the American army.
81 am ready to vote for a law that
will punish men who conspire to Grip
pie war industry like the building of
ships, Just as severely as those who OBJ
