Wounding With Words

Hasty, anger-provoked words are
the ones which do the most damage,
cause the deepest wounds and result
in severing the greatest number of
ties of love and friendship.
You should have better control of
your tongue.
You know you have often said
things in anger which you did not
mean, and you uttered them because
you had the desire to hurt somebody.
In many instances you have used
as the victims of your wrath those
who are nearest and dearest to you.
Have you ever stopped to think,
husband, what an unmanly thing it
is, even in your greatest wrath, to
wound your wife with singing
words?
You would not think of striking
her, but you do not hesitate, while
angry, to deal verbal blows which
hurt worse and leave wounds which
remain longer than those physical.
Wife, have you ever considered
how heartless it is to say to your
husband the things which you know
cut him the deepest?
Why should you have a desire to
do this?

Owners OF Tractors and
Traction Engines, Read!

Since the passage OF Chapter 50 of
! the Acts of 1918, which is the Cen
eral Motor Vehicle Law of Maryland,
all tractors and traction engines are
defined as motor vehicles, W. thin The
meaning of Sec 134 of the law.
All tractors and traction engines,
/ therefore, must be registered when
operated on public highways the
same as any other motor vehicle the
provisions for registration being con-
! tanned in Sec. 40 Of the law. Every
such tractor or traction engine must.
in addition to carrying the registra
! ton tag, have the certificate OF reg
! istration which accompanies each
| tag. The penalties for failing to
| carry a certificate of registration are
contained in Sec. 14O, and provide a
| fine Of not less than ten dollars nor
more than one hundred dollars for
| The first offense, except where the
certificate of registration has been
| issued, but where the operator has,
! through inadvertence, failed to have
| it with him at the time of his arrest
In the latter case the fine is from
one dollar to one hundred dollars.
| The provisions of Sec. 140 apply TO
both the operator and the owner.
The registration fees for tractors
and traction engines are set forth in
Glass H of Sec. 141. Each tractor
or traction engine, or any other SINH
lar vehicle used for transportation
or hauling, is required to pay a reg
istration fee of twenty-five dollars
per annum. This fee does not apply
to tractors OF traction engines used
exclusively for hauling threshing out
fits, clover hullers, hay balers, bind
ers and other similar farming i'm
plements not designed for hauling
purposes. AS to such traction en-
gines, where no fee is charged the
provision will issue tags and certifi-
Gates free of charge.
Sec. 145 gives the Commissioner of
Motor Vehicles authority TO refuse,
revoke or suspend the markers and
certificate OF registration of any mo-
tor vehicle which is so constructed
or operated as to cause unreasonable
damage to the public highway. This
provision is of great Importance, be-
cause it enables the Commissioner to
enforce rigidly the provisions of
the law, which are intended to safe
guard the public roads from the eX-
cessiye wear and tear caused by
careless operators of tractors or trac-
tion engines, and to put an end to
the practice of driving such machines
along the public roads without hav-
ing the spikes or cleats on the
wheels covered. In addition to for
feiting the registration tag and GER
tificate, those convicted of unrea-
sonably damaging the public high
ways are subjected to the penalty
provided by Sub-Sec. l of Sec. 149.
Those who damage the public high
ways are also liable to prosecution
and to the penalties imposed for such
violations by the State Roads Law.
The Commissioner of Motor Vehi-
cles is very anxious to impress upon
the owners of all tractors and trac-
ton engines the necessity of having
their machines registered in accord
ance with the law.

Paris, July 16.--The Germans
continued their efforts today, fur
iously launching new attacks. and
made progress during the night but
II has been DECIDEDLY slow In compar-
lson with the sweep Of Teutonic le-
gions In previous offensives. They
have reached the villages of Stag
mai la Chapelle and Monthedon, ap-
proximately mile and three quar-.
ters south OF the river Marne. but
have been held In the outskirts OF
these villages. They have also been
stopped this side Of Bouquigny wood
Just to the northeast.
The Germans are already "a hours
behind their schedule and there are
no indications that they have the
same striking power as when they
began. Between 100000 and s00,-
900 German troops were thrown In
to the battle.
The allies seem to have reason
TO believe that the supreme test Of
their defense has been met success
fully.

Military Authorities Believe Thst
Teutons Arc Checked and Hss
win BE Held

Washington, July 16.-,An air OF
elation was apparent in government
circles today as Associated Press dis
patches from France unfolded the
story Of the valiant stand OF Ameri-
can troops along the Marne against
the renewed German offensive.
Official advices were slow and no
formal report on the German effort
to drive the Jaws Of a great pincer
movement about Rheims on q 65-
mile front was available at a late
hour. Press reports made It clear
the enemy had been hurled back BY
American counter-attacks along the
Marne, where they hold the left
flank Of the great battle front, while
the French army. aided near Rheims
by Italians, stood fast over the far
greater extent Of the line they de-
Tended against fierce German a.
saults.
At the White House President
Wilson read the account. At the war
department Secretary Baker. General
March. chief Of stan. and other Of
ficers at the department. read eager
ly the brief glimpses Of the battle
flashed across the country In press
bulletins from the battle front.
After reading today's reports. Sec
retary Baker made the following
statement to. the Associated Press:
The attack made by the Germans
is evidently the result Of careful pre-
parations. II covers wide front
and is made in force. We are at the
end Of the first day Of great bat
tie. The reports so far are encour-
aging and seem to Indicate both
heavy fighting and effective resist
ance along the entire 'front.'"
The prompt and hard driven at
tacks Of the American troops at two
points. sent glow Of enthusiasm
through the whole war department,
when the word first came. Before
the results we're known, the fact that
the counter attack had been launch
ed was cheering. It showed the Am
orleans were meeting their first
great test like veterans and that tho
German effort to overrun them had
failed to dlsorganize or demoraliss,
their fighting power.
Then came word that at vaux not
only had the enemy been stopped.
but his advancing infantry had cor.
lided with Americans who first DEL
uged their opponents with machine
gun fire. then leaped forward to dis
rupt completely the blow at this Soc
tion that had been in careful pre-
paration for more than 80 days.
Meanwhile meager reports from
London said the Marne had been
crossed by the Germans at several
points. Details we're awaited with
some apprehension. Hour BY hour
the story filtered in. but the bulle-
tin that told Of the hurlins back Of
the foe in the Conde sector where
his first rush had pushed the Amer
leans out Of the salient they held OPP
posite Joulgonne. did not come un-
til later. The message set all doubts
at rest. Again the enemy had been
outmatched by the Americans. He
was driven back to the river and
many prisoners. trapped by the des>
truction Of their bridges behind
them, were taken.
