VISITS COUNTY HOME
Junior Red Cross Make Trip To
Aims House, Carrying Gifts
To Arundel's Poor
MANY USEFUL PRESENTS

The Girls Club OF the Germantown
School composed of members of the
Junior Red Cross. spent a very pleas
ant afternoon on Monday of this week.
visiting the Anne Arundel County
Home. Twenty-Five members made
the trip in three machines. driven by
Mrs. Rogers. Mrs. Dove and Mrs. Mer-
rick, accompanied by the teachers of
the school.
The object of the visit was to take
some gifts to the old people
One gift was a handsome patchwork
quilt. made by the girls at their hi.
weekly club meetings. during the win
ter. Besides this work, each girl made
a pretty utility bag. These will be
found to be very useful by the old peo-
pie for holding sewing knitting or
pipe and tobacco and such notions.
Besides these articles. the girls took
with them two large baskets filled
with twenty odd jars of fruit, preser-
YES and jellies. bag of fresh fruit
ana some boquets of flowers.
The trip was q most pleasant one.
Upon arriving at the Home, the care
takers, Mr. and Mrs. Tucker escorted
the visitors through the buildings.
The girls enjoyed talking to the old
people and were very much interested
in the occupation of the different men
and women.
After visiting with the inmates, the
girls spent a happy halfhouI enjoying
the beautiful grounds.
Snapshots were taken of the girls
and the Home.
The girls returned home feeling
that, in this Home for the aged, they
have found a field. worthy Of any
service they can give. This lesson
learned through service, is valuable
one.
Ii the inmates of the institution de-
rived as much pleasure out of this
visit as did the girls. this visit was
surely worth while.

NEWSPR|NT SHORTAGE
MORE AND MORE ACUTE

The shortage in newsprint paper,
which has reached the acute stage has
caused publishers of newspapers all
over the country to materially reduce
the size of their papers The shortage
has hit New York, Boston. Philadel-
phia. Chicago, San Francisco, Balti-
more. and many other cities, until the
publishers of papers, of large and
small editions. have been moved TO ac-
tion. in an effort to tide over the exist
ing situation
The two evening papers in Washing
ton are the latest to feel the reflects
of hardship. Says a dispatch from
Washington in the Baltimore Sun:
THE acute shortage in newsprint
paper has forced the two evening pa
pers of Washington TO reduce the size
of their editions and in the case of the
Evening Star to give warning that
even more drastic curtailment will
be imperative owing to the stoppage
of papar supply.
The Star and the Times were con
tracted today TO Is pages each, about
one-half their normal size"
SO with the rapid developments in
matters along all lines industrial il
can be readily seen that conditions
may become even more acute.

was no intimation as to its nature.
Acknowledgement Palmer made this
statement as he left the White House;
1T is fair to conclude that the
strike situation was discussed, but
am not prepared to say what conclu
sions were reached"
Other members of the Cabinet would
make no statements referring in
quirers to the Attorney Some
intimated, however, that definite
decision had been made one way or the
other as TO Government interference.
Soon after the Cabinet met the Presi-
dent telegraphed the members OF the
newly named railroad labor board,
asking them to come to Washington
and be prepared to function as soon
as their nominations have been con-
firmed by the Senate.
