In Memory OF St. Patrick

The ST. Mary's Lyceum Club held
a very interesting meeting last night
in honor of St. Patrick's at their
rooms on High street, at eight M
teen o'clock.
The chief address of the evening
was delivered by Father John M.
Walsh. Mr.. Walsh is an exception
ally good orator and delivered the
address in such manner that the
members of the Club and their
friends were at a loss to express
their appreciation. The address was
net a very lengthy one. but 1t con-
tanned the many and one facts that
are known to many of US, and some
that were unknown to many OF those
present. He brought out many line
points, that ireland was always
ready and willing and always was
there with force. ready to respond
on a moments notice.
In the Banner of the 18th, the
poem entitled St. Patrick's Day, COM
posed by Mr.. Denis A. Mccarthy and
Father Walsh's address both eX-
pressed the same views and paid
high honors to beloved Ireland.
Mr.. Arthur O'Hea. presided over
the meeting, and the musical part
Of the program consisted of solos
by Miss Mary Blanche Seward, and
Mr.. Noble Cannon, being appropri-
ate for this occasion. which were
well rendered and thoroughly en-
joyed by all.
The Club rooms were filled te
their capacity, and all expressed the
wish that they may have the pleas
ure to hear Father Walsh upon an,
other occasion.

High School Players
Look Promising

A baseball team representing the
eighth and ninth grade of the Cam
bridge High School defeated the
Junior-Senior team yesterday by the
score of 5 to 8 en- the school grounds
The uper classmen were never dan
gerous and were completely baftied
by Trego and Simmons the High
School pitchers; both are ninth grade
scholars and showed great form IN
the box. Wolff handled both pItch-
ers in great style besides paklng two
extra base hits which won the game.
Both teams showed fast infield work
each team making several double
plays. Several long hits were made
two being home runs by Moore and
Mace. The line was as follows
Eighth and Ninth grade-Wolff,
c; Beckwith, lib; Tyler, 2b; Robbins
S.; Simmons Sb-p; Hirst If; Hand
ley CT; Moore If; Trego, p-3b.
Junior Senior team-Keenan, G.;
Mace 1b-p; McAllister 2b; Harris SIS;
Nichols, 3b; Mowbray If; Ruark Of;
Mcguire IF; Fountain p-1b.
Both of these teams displayed line
Judgment whenever they were IN
a pinch. They did not hesitate one
second when they were forced to
some quick action, they seemed as
though they know the play they were
expected to make before rand.
There is no reason why that the
High School should not put very
good team on the field this year, one
that can hold its own, judging by the
interest manifested and displayed in
yesterdays game.

SALISBURY TALKS BACK
Indignant That Cambridge Paper
Should Refer To Her New Motor
BuSeS,

Let's all go to Salisbury and ride
in her Spanking New Hotel Bus. =
That's the way you'll feel after
reading the following article from
the Wicomico News, bearing the
caption "Lizzies Not Good Enough
For Salisbury in reply to an item
in the Banner
"One of those little Cambridge
village newspapers very naturally
finding itself snort of real news a
short time ago, took occasion to re-
mark upon the fact that Salisburys
hotels are now operating motor bus
es TO the convenience of their guests.
The Cambridge paper says the
hotels of that village have been using
motor buses f0t a like purpose for
many years; and doubtless this is
a fact.
But Salisburys newest hotel bus
is q Regular affair 1t carries from
20 to % passengers at time and is
filled to capacity with the arrival or
each incoming train. Ordinary tin
Lizzie buses may do very nicely for
Cambridge. bur Salisbury is regular
city and needs regular city conven-
iences-consequent Salisbury is
operating a hotel bus such as Cam
bridge may have dreamed OF but
never accomplished"
1t seems that Salisbury, in this
instance in playing the role of the
publican, assuming the "holies than
thou" spirit Evidently they are
welcoming their guests in dashing
"Pierce-Arrow" and they are trying
to discourage travel to Cambridge,
by circulating rumors of antiquated
conveyances TO be found upon our
streets. Suppose We do stick to
Metal Elizabeth 1T will take you
there and bring you back"

Dainty 'kerchief white as snow.
Style Just fifty years ago;
Hair smoothed back in rows of eurls
Round her neck a rope of pearls.
That's ny mother.
High heeled slippers white and small
And they made her look so tall;
Brocade gown down to her feet,
Yes, from tip to toe she's sweet.
That's my mother.
But the best and sweetest grace
Is her lovely flower face;
Rosy cheeks and dainty nose.
Lips the color Of rose,
That's my mother.
Little maiden, taough you're old,
Time can never steal the gold.
From the ripples of your hair,
You will never know care.

Little maid Of olden time,
'Tis for you 1 write this rhyme;
Never you will older be.
There YOU hug and smile at me,

THE INCENTIVE TO SAVING

In all the lamentation that the
dollar will buy 50 little, consider
this fact, usually overlooked !:
Every dollar saved now will buy
two dollars worth Of stuff a few
years from now when the cnrren-
cy regains lis value.
In connection with the higher
cost Of living, wages and salaries
have advanced. The larger in
come of course, doesn't buy more
than the smaller income would
buy five years ago. But any
money saved now will count dou-
Bile when prices sag back.
The family that saves $500 and
invests it at 6 per cent gets an
income Of $50 a year from it.
That $50 now will buy, say, three
pairs Of $40 shoes. Ten years
from now it may buy six pairs Of
shoes OF the same quality. That
is, the value of the investment
will have been doubled.
Remember this when you hest
tate whether to spend a dollar
for something you don't need, or
to invest it in war saving stamps.

FORGETTING THE FOUNDA-
TION

-Four times as much money is
spent on an average IN the Unit
ed States upon tbe training of an
idiot child as on the training Of
a teacher. This is one of the
startling facts Of on reducational
system recorded bJ Herbert CO.
rcy writing in Golfers Weekly
on "Their Lives for America.''
Mr.. Corey las based his article
om-the facts as told in figures
and actual experience by such ed
ucational associations as the Ma
toinal Educational association
and such. mon of prominence in
the educational world as DR..

ucation.
incidentally, this is q story Of
better pay for teachers but pri-
marily it tells how the teaching
profession has been allowed to
so retrograde in dignity and re-
spect that it is fast losing many
OF the best equipped men and wo-
men who entered it because they |
felt great and vital service |
could be rendered there as no
place else. They were right. |
And the United States has been
too busy with a lot of other
things to give much time or
thought or money to it's schools
One Of the most effective
checks to that headlong race to
and subsequent nation
al decline was the discovery, by |
the process of elimination in the !
selective draft system, that one
person in twenty, over the age
of ten in the United States, can
neither read nor write. that one
person in five is unable to read
a newspaper with understanding
or write simple letter.
The growing reason for this
says MIR. Corey, is the
unpleasant truth that many of
'ur teachers are too young, or i'll
-rained, or undereducated or in
'Xperienced.-Tulsa Tribune.

Cabin of the Three Gables.

For some distance back from the river the Earthmaker scrambled the Tlatwoods. Scrambled-that's exact Iy what seems to have happened to a strip along the north bank. A maze of gulch and cliff, of gully and bluff ; all bearded thick with trees and dense underbrush; all alive with the teasing mystery of growing things.
 The path the girl travelled wound Itself, or rather unwound itself, right through the heart of the hills, deep into the mystery of the thick woods, until it turned sharply and led up the east bank. of Wolf run. the little stream in which the Pearlhunter had washed the elecampane roots.
 short distance above the pool, so near that the Pearlhunter wondered he had not seen it before, a three gabed. one-story log cabin snugged back against the bluffs just where they left the bank of the stream and curved to the east. A step farther, a small plot of creek bottom had been cleared and fenced-what the FlatwoOds called a garden patch" Back of the gar den. stable hugged the bluff, but 1t was half hidden by rank weeds.
 The cabin was built of hewn logs, sotched artistically at the corners. The roof projected well beyond the walls; the chimneys were of red brick; the doors and windows of finish rather more pretentious than was common in the woods There were three wings, extending at right an- r'es frnr1 cammon center. making four rooms, in all, three along the front, with another, probably the kitchen, extending back from the cen tral room.
 Where the path left the stream to turn toward the door the girl paused and held out her hand for the basket. Slowly the Pearlhunter passed 1t over. It was an awkward moment. His eyes travelled past her to the tiny garden. He noticed that the fence around it was sagged and broken The garden, however, appeared to be clean and well-kept. Aside from this-and the fiowers-the place showed very sad lack of care
 The underhrush along the bluffs trembied slightly, but enough to at tract the woodsman's eyes. Noiseless-
