London Taxi DriUer is
Ruling With Iron Hand:

hand and his sway. owing 10 the
continued shortage of cabs. probably
will have to be endured for many
more months
You may ride in a taxi-cab here
only if the driver hnds that your
destination suits his own conven-
fence. His decision will be influenced
by his quick prOgnosis of the amount
of the tip your appearance and man
ner indicate. If you look like a
CLOSE un" you will save time by
joining a queue for a bus or throw
ing yourself into the maelstrOm of a
tube crowd. for il is certain you
won't ride in a taXicab.
Bold Men Wins Popularity.
ANY man bold enough to challenge
the lofty authority of a taNicab
driver wins instant popularity and
draws about him a throng of ad-
mirers. So there were loud cheers
and a rush for the spot when a pas
senger the other day dove into an
empty taxicab passing through the
Strand and refused the drivers de-
mand that he get out. The driver
stopped his cab and refused 10

Your Dollars!

Your dollars are needed at this
time to make home, sweet home,
Just what the soldiers and sailors
thought it was when they were liv-
ing in barns, shell holes and slmllal
places; sleeping with one eve shut
and the other eye open, expecting to
see the enemy creep up on them at
any time; resting with one thought
of victory and the other OF home
and loved ones; living that Europe
might be as good and safe place
to live in as Dorchester county.
Do you recall those letters: They
call this sunny France, and yet 1t
rains every day" With those words
their minds drew contrast to the
sunshine and flowers and the blue
waters of their native county. Their
supreme aim in life was to be with
their families once more.
And now they are back, and it is
up to the folks to let them know
they are welcome home, and that
they appreciate the dangers through
which the boys have passed that
liberty and democracy might domi-
nate the world. One has but to
scan the columns of the papers OF
the different counties of Maryland
to see what preparation is being
made to entertain the returned VIC
tors on July Fourth.
Dorchester, too, is to have cele-
bration, which will cost the county
$4,000. But it is worth it, for Is
there anything too good for our sol
diers and sailors? We need your
dollars right now, and we also neeo
