CHARLOTTE HALL IS
BEATEN BY CENTRAL

Central High started the season
in regular form yesterday. winning
its first game from Charlotte Hall
Military Academy on the latter's
field by 81 to Z. Charlotte's only
touchdown came in the second
quarter when Left Halfback Quinn
recovered a tumble. After the sec
ond quarter the Charlotte Hall
eleven had no chance at all to
score.
Coach Metzler's machine was
dangerous at all times. The pig
skin was carried as far as the ten
yard line frequently. but only on
four occasions was il carried across
Penrose. Russell. Dice and Stroecher
did the Central scoring. The game
was well played and the spirit the
Central men displayed will 60 a
long ways toward their winning the

AMERICAN WOMEN AND THE WAR

TN the section on THE Work of
Women for the War" one of the
thirty-ive chapters in Florence
Finch Kelly's What America Did,"
recently published by E. P. Dutton
& Co., the author summarizes and
describes all the various ways in
which the women OF this country
aided the prosecution of war. 1t
makes an impressive total and the
author says of it:
From the mother who sent her
sons across the ocean to the little
Girl Scout who ran errands for a
Red Cross chapter, the women were
ready for any sacrifice it should be
necessary for them to make and
any service they could render. Their
spirit was as high, their patriotism
as ardent and their wish to serve
as keen as that of their husbands,
fathers and brothers, and their
spirit and their service were essen
tial factors in the war achievement
of America. Their spirit was al
ways the same, but their services
were of the greatest variety, being,
for the greater part, such as they
could render without leaving their
homes. Being undertaken in ad-
dition to their usual duties in the
care of homes and families, their
war labors were less outstanding
and much less likely to impress the
superficial observer than if they had
been detached from woman's usual
environment. But they were none

the less essential" The author
then goes on to tell what the women
of America did-their work in es-
sential industries; what they did in
the Railroad Administration, in
which 100000 women were en-
ployed; their zeal in the production
and conservation of food; what the
Woman's Land Army did; the re-
markable efforts of the woman's
committee which aided in the
financing of the war. which in state
after state raised from one-third to
one-half its quota in the Liberty
Loans; the varied and vast labors
of the women for the Red Cross;
the work of trained nurses in war
service and of yeowomen in the
navy; the part that women took in
the organizations for the welfare
of the fighting forces; the service
of their several motor corps; and,
finally, the nationwide and most i'm
portant services of the Woman's
Committee of the Counsel of Ma
tional Defence, which was organized
in every state and had $1,000 sub
ordinate units at work by mid-sum-
mer of 1918.
The story which this chapter tells
is one of which all women who
shared in the work can we'll be
proud, just as all Americans, who
were members of the fighting
forces or were sustaining those
forces at home, can be proud of the
wonderful story the whole book re-
lates of this country's wartime
achievements.

institutions, even as the former SOL

our Nation was threatened by Ger

lone of the things we have to do

Americans from those who are not
Americans or do not wish to become

In our easy-going way we have al

pose are now being defended by
American citizens who should know

around making speeches against
our government and all government
is as much an enemy of our Nation
as a captain of hostile submarine
who sought to sink our ships and
