Director OF Industries,

Sir.-I acknowledge your letter OF
the 18th instant relative to the forma-
ton Of our regiment and am very
full Information.
AS you Know, the War Department
has decided to form an entire Divi-
sion Of Colored Draftees. 1t has
trained Colored men to command
these troops in all grades except
those above Captain. and is now en-
gagged in forming and organizing these
bodies Of troops.
! Now, an essential element Of q
division is an Engineer Regiment,
)composed Of spec ally selected men
capable Of doing everything in a me-
Jchanical industrial or engineering
line that an army may require to be
done.
! You see, it's duties covor very
wide range Of activities. It must
make surveys and supply maps, it
must build and operate railroads,
build and repair bridges, as we'll as
destroy them when necessary; build
trenches. Notifications, dig mines, and
blow them up; man the gas apparatus
for gas attacks, and a thousand other
ysimilar things.
As VIC will have so l:ttlc time to
teach men to do all these things. be-
sides teaching them TO be soldiers,
you will see we are interested in &C.
curing men who already have much
technical skill in various lines. Such
men as are turned out by the various
! nigh standing Colleges like Tuskcgcc
Institute. Howard University, Hamp-
ton Institute, etc. are particularly
desirable men for us. and we will be
\ glad to get all possible.
i TO obtain our experts, for which
we have about twenty vacancies,
graduates from Massachusetts Insti-
tutc OF Technology would be very de-
sirable and I would request your full
co.opdration in getting in touch with
all the classes Of men l have named.
l have requested authority from
the War Department to enlist special
ply men possessing the desired qualin-
acations but who are subject to draft.
Until I get that permission, they
8eould DO indicted into the service I'M

NIMRER TMENTY.

Even the best-informed war statis-
tician is apt TO be a bit shaky when it
comes to adding up the latest total of
Germany's foes. From the data at
hand, they now aggregate a full score.
Nicaragua, whose Congress declared
war on Germany and her allies just
the other day, has the honor of being
number twenty. She follows Guate-
mala, which entered the war last
month.
Like her little neighbor. Nicaragua
can't be counted on for much actual
fighting. But the Germans don't
laugh at her belligerency. They've
got over that folly. They know what
it means to have these free American
republics entering the lists against
them, one by one, until they face the
prospect of a solid, permannt anti
German lineup on this hemisphere.
Brazil has been in the war, in fact
as well as in theory, for year or so.
Cuba is in. Panama is in. Bolivia is
in. It's hard to say offhand whether
there are any more than that at the
moment But they're coming, and
coming fast Declaring war against
Germany is the great international
game of the western world
II means unity of ideals, it means
economic solidarity for war purposes,
and il means a freeze-out for German
industry and trade when peace
comes.

MORE ABOUT THOSE HOME
LETTERS.

Much has already been said about
letters to soldiers and sailors But
il seems necessary to say yet more.
Everybody qualified to speak with
any authority on the subject agrees
that home folks should keep the let
ters going forward regularly and Of
ten. Home letters are about as vital
to the soldier as food. 1t is also
agreed that those letters must be
cheerful and encouraging. If the
happy ones are food for the warrior,
the depressing. gloomy ones are sure
poison. aggravating inconsistencies and
lowering morale
In spite of many appeals to the pub
lie in "A matter that ought to be self
evident. the wrong kind of letters
continue TO get into the soldiers and
sailors mail bag And they do lot
of harm. One division inspector re-
ported that of the punishments for
desertion that came to his attention
in one camp alone, 20 per cent of them
were inflicted on men who had been
driven frantic by unhappy letters from
home. And in most cases the troubles
recounted in those letters were slight,
only assuming seriousness from the
gloomy tone of the writer's.
It's a pretty poor way to show your
pride in that man whose service flag
you display in the front window, TO
write him letters full of woe. You're
proud of him because he is giving so
much for his country and for you.
Why not do something for your coun-
try yourself by bearing your Affections
great or small-bravely as he bears
his? Keep your worries TO yourself
and tell him the cheerful. homely,
normal things that he wants TO hear
about.

MARY PICKFORD AT
COLONIAL TOMORROW.

Mary Pickford in tense and APP
healing picturization of William l.
Iocke's widely read novel stella
NIaris" will be the extremely enjoy
able attraction at the Colonial inca
ire tomorrow matinee and evening.
For the first time in her career Mary
Pickford plays q dual role, playing
the part of Stella Maris, a sweet, gen
tie girl and Unity Blake, the ugly ana
deformed orphan. stella Maris' IS
an extraordinary production, re
plete with stirring incidents and deep
~ charged with pathos. Settings ana
background have been provided in
keeping with the bigness of the story.
The brilliant little star is truly Won
derful in the dual roles of Stella Ma
ris and Unity Blake and through re-
markable trick photography both
characters are shown on the screen at
the same time, and effects are obtain
ed which have never heretofore been
successfully attempted. A screamingly
funny Mack Sennett comedy also.

"BOOTEEGGING."

II is TO be regretted that there are
so many unpatriotic citizens in and
around Annapolis who are deliberately
violating the recent order of Secretary
Daniels making Annapolis dry.
Since the order went into effect
more than 50 persons have been
caught and convicted for violating it,
During ordinary times persons might
with some degree of certainty hope to
get away with the goods" But not
now This dry order is not to be
trifed with, and the man or woman
who persistently continues to violate
it will surely pay the penalty.
II Is indeed very gratifying to note
the good work done by our sheriff and
policemen and also the Federal au-
thorities in running dow nthese vio-
lators.
