 order in which it should be made. A small bracket saw, what you probably know as a hand scroIl-saw, should be used for cutting out the pieces, because a very fine blade is necessary. The block should be of white pine, free from knots and cracks. Cut 1t to the dimensions shown in Fig. g. and plane its surfaces straight and smooth; then upon the two face and two side surfaces, mark off the lines on which to cut. The corners are shown rounded because 1t Is nec- essary to cut them that way in order to turn the corner with the saw blade.
 The first piece to cut out is the ta- ble Gig. D; this is marked A in Figs. 9 and 10. When you have removed this piece from the two ends and one side of the block, a block like that shown in Fig. II will remain.
 The next step is to separate the remaining block into two equal parts by saving along the heavy lines shown in Fig. II tFig. 12). This pair

The following is the report of Mrs.

Reviewing the work of the Chapter
since the signing of the Armistice, No
vember. 1919. The chairman reported
the splendid work accomplished and
the true spirit of the Red Cross that
has prevailed in all departments. There
has naturally been a slowing down Of
activities since the cessation of hostili-
ties because we no longer have the
enormous stimulus of the War TO urge
us on. As far as this Chapter is con-
cerned, there has only been the letting
down that would conform to a peace
time program. At a meeting Of the
Executive Committee last October it
was decided, that the Annapolis and
Anne Arundel County Chapter could
not afford to give up any of its present
activities, if it was TO continue in the
line of progress, consequently all of
our standing committees were to go on
as usual, these to be; Production,
Home Service, Knitting, Public
Health Nursing. and such other activi-
ties added as would be of value to the

MUDD URGES FEDERAL
APPROPRIATIONS FOR
IMPROVED HIGHWAYS

Launching his fight to obtain sub
stantial Federal appropriations for the
/ improvement of roads suburban to the
District of Columbia, which lead to
the main arteries of the Maryland
road system, Congressman Sydney r
Mudd. of the Fifth Maryland District
yesterday appeared before the Appro-
priations Committee of the House, and
argued for the necessity of the pro-
jects of which he has been making a
study for some time.
Grading and re-surfacing of Penn
sylvania avenue extended from the
Pennsylvania avenue bridge to Ala
bama avenue and Bowen road to the
District line, leading to Marlboro and
Annapolis. was one of the two prin-
cipal matters submitted by Mr.. Mudd.
In his address to the committee Mr..
Mudd among other things, said:
Congress should spare no expense
in building modern. high-grade bitum-
inous macadam roads over approaches
from the city to the district line,
where Maryland's magnificent roads
begin The time has long since ar
rived when the roads within the ma
tions capitol should be of the best
type. as in other states where mil
lions of dollars have been spent in
thus beautifying suburbs Maryland
has spent upwards of 80 millions of
dollars in the construction of state
roads. The thoroughfares in the dis
trict connecting with these great
highways of my state are disgrace
to the District of Columbia. During
the war the government trucks prac-
tically ruined the Baltimore boulevard
causing the state TO expend an
enormous amount OF money re-surfac-
ing and re-shouldering it with ce-
ment. The government bore no part
OF this expense. Now this highway is
in perfect condition. as is the Anna
polls road, beginning from the termi-
nus OF the Bowen road The district
connections with these highways have
not been repaired or re-surfaced in
years, and Congress should not fail
to cooperate with the state of Mary
land TO better these conditions.
