WAKEFIELD COMES OUT
FOR ALBERT RITCHIE

Former Governor Edwin Warfield is
urging his friends to support Albert
c. Ritchie in his candidacy for Cover
nor on the Democratic ticket.
The former Governor. among other
things. said:
81 know of no man in the State who
is better fitted to be Governor" said
he in discussing Mr. Ritchie's qualifi-
cations today "As a lawyer of dis
tinction and a man of affairs. he is
eminently~ equipped for the office. and
can he confidently relied upon to do
what is right.
II have seen no argument of Mr.
Nice which, I have considered sensible
enough to influence a thinking man.
BY his own argument that there is
something reprehensible in having the
support of Kelly he has proved him
self unworthy of election to the Gov
ernorship. He is shown to have
sought after and solicited that very
support"

THEIR golden JUBILEE
Woman's Foreign Missionary
Society First M. Church
FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY

Having reached its fiftieth mile
stone. the women's Foreign Mission
airy Society of the First NJ. e. church
celebrated its Golden Jubilee on
Monday night with fitting ceremony
IN the lecture room OF the First
church The room was elaborately
decorated in blue and gold, the society
colors, and each woman More blue
and gold arm band and was presented
at entrance with a large yellow chry-
santhemum. There were over 100
members present at the jubilee, the
membership numbering some 150.
The president of the society, Mrs
Fl. W. Burgan, wife OF the pastor
presided in her usual dignified and
graceful manner, and the devotional
exercise was led by Mrs. Bramble.
Officers of the society gave their
annual reports. all of which were in
te-esting. especially the report of the
treasurer, which showed that in the
last year the Woman's' Foreign Mis-
sionary Society of the First NJ. f.
church had raised nearly $500 for mis-
sionary work. thereby exceeding their
quota. 1t was gratifying to know that
tlre women went "over the top in
their apportionment,
Mrs Burgan, the president. gave an
earnest talk in which she urged all
to do their part, and to bend every
effort during the coming year to win
ming souls for Christ's kingdom" and
to let the members concentrate this
year on this special work.
Reports of the delegates, Mrs. John
Dawes and Mrs. Shenton, to the an
nual convention of the Woman's For
eign Missionary Society this year, were
submitted and were most interesting
and profitable. The reports showed the
missionary work accomplished the
past year by women had been little
short of wonderful.
At the conclusion of the business
meeting the women marched into an
adjoining room where large birth
day cake and SO lighted candles was
a chief decoration at table in com.
memoration of their golden jubilee
The blue and gold color scheme was
carried out in this room as well as
in the room of meeting. Refreshments
we're served by the entertainment com
mittee, of which Mrs. Strahorn was
chairman. During the evening Miss
Frances Rullman sang very sweetly
a beautiful soprano SOLO
A feature of the jubilee was that
Miss Mamie Nichols, who death oc
Cured about week ago, was made
a memorial member" of the society.

FINES IMPOSED FOR r
CRUELTY TO ANIMALS

Anne Arundel county agent, ]. c.
Blaisdell, of the local branch of the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals, who works in conjunction
with Baltimore Agent Gassaway of the
Maryland S: p c.. A., went to Glen
Burnie today for the purpose of in
vestigating charges of cruelty to horses
and mules being worked on the State
road near Robinson's station.
The result was the arrest of H. c.
Burke of Boone and William T. Rob
inson of Robinson. this county, on
charges of working animals suffering
from sore shoulders. In one instance,
it is alleged, the pad worn by one of
he animals was saturated with blood
from the CALLED shoulder. The ac-
eused had a hearing before Justice
McGinniss, of Glen Burnie. and both
pleaded guilty to the charge and were
given the minimum fine. That of Mr..
Burke being $50 and costs, amounting
10 $2145, and that of Mr. Robinson
being $40 and costs, amounting to
s1145.
Agents Blaisdell and Gassaway sus-
pended five horses and one mule from
work on the roads because of their
condition.

Not Due To HaZing
Such a change cannot be attl ibuted

summed Up by the Admiral as follows
l. The signing Of the armistice tooF
away the incentive to remain in the
naval service.
2. After a short trial many midship
men realize that they are not suited
for naval career.
Course Too Difficult.
9. Many find the course of study, the
drills, discipline, etc, more difficult
than they expected.
A. The high cost of living and the
difficulty a naval officer faces in living
within his salary
s. A recent rumor among midship
men that Congress intended to make
law which would require them to re
main in the service for at least &c
years after graduation.
G. Stories that many naval officers
desired to resign and could not do SC
have prompted some midshipmen tt
leave the Naval Academy before grad
uation
Z. A spirit of unrest at the Academy

at large, and the release fever
which swept over both army and nav.
Immediately after the close of the
war, has a marked effect upon the

year 173 came from members of the
"plebe" class. Ninety-fve designations
from the fourth class were voluntary

Five men resigned because their
services were NEEDED at home; Al for
dislike Of the service; IL for physical
disability; because they were dis
satisfied; two to pursue another pro
fession; 16 voluntarily considered
themselves unsatisfactory in studies;
one because he became "discontented"
others because of their inability to
keep up with "rigidness of Naval
Academy" and at least one for nc
apparent reason.
1t is interesting to note that of the
270 designations, 81 of which came
during the past month. not single

ment as a reason.
Following attempts by two "plebes'
to commit suicide, according to the
findings of naval investigating

"plebes" in any way or manner.

FEELING Of UNREST

270 Members Of United States
Naval Academy Quit Insti-
tuition During Last Year
ESPRIT DE CORPS IS LOW

National unrest is apparent even in
this quite colonial capital, and in the
event of a continuance of present con.
ditions, over which neither the Naval
Academy nor the Navy Department in
Washington has control, the high
standard of the Naval Academy neces
sarily will be lowered. Already the
morale of the regiment of midshipmen
is dangerously near the breaking DO mt
Not since the Academy was estab
lished in 1S45 has there been sucl
general dissatisfaction.
That midshipmen, the future officer
of the American Navy, isolated 70
four years in this seat of aristocracs
and conservatism, should be reached
by the big economic and social prob
lens Of the day seems incredible. Ane
yet it is apparent that some grea
change is taking place, not only among
the fourth class men, or 'plebes," but
in the ranks of the first-cIass men as
well.

at the Cantelou homestead l saw the
rooms occupied by Preston S. Brooks
who made himself famous by defying
Charles Sumner, who in public
speech reflected upon the South.
One is inclined to believe that
Mother Nature must dearly love the
South for she visits it with the kind
est benefcence and fills it with the
greatest bounty. The stately old trees
which surround the place make fit
ting frame for the masterpiece which
they inclose.
Most people are like the little girl
who lived in the mountains, and who,
looking out into the distance, saw
other mountains, blue instead of
green. She went in search of the dis
tant blue ones and on arriving saw
that the mountains she left were now
the blue ones, having taken on the
enchantment of distance.
Though the Southerner may go
North to study the architecture of
New England, and the Northern man
may come South to see the beautiful
landscapes of the South, happy is the
man who has the, grace to see in the
things of; his own home town, the
glories of a great past.
