RED CROSS RELIEF
IN CENTRAL EUROPE

But for timely assistance Of the
American Red Cross during the last
year, a large proportion Of the 10000
coo population of the Balkan States
might have starved or persisted from
disease or exposure. Six million dol
lars worth Of food, clothing and medi-

Montenegro, Serbia, Bosnia and Greece

The money expended by the Red

Tobacco Growers Association

Although several attacks have been
made recently upon the commission
men by tobacco growers of this State.
10 mention of anv fight WIS made last
Thursday at the meeting of the Mary
and Tobacco Growers Association at
the offices of the association, Conway
and Light streets, Baltimore.
George l. Gardiner, manager of the
association, denied that the association
was conducting or had considered a
fight against the commission men. He
said the commission business had been
tablished for long time and that the
men conducting it were welcome to
what they made from it. adding that
the association did not assume the au-
thority for the attacks made recently by
several individuals upon the commits
sion men.
"It rests with the association to
prove,'' Nh Gardiner said, that it can
handle the tobacco of the farmers better
than the commission men. If this be
true, the association will interfere with
the business of the commission men.
But our organization itself has no fight
| with them in any legitimate business
they might conduct.
Plans for financing the association
were completed and officers and direc
tors were elected as follows:
Thomas Parran, president; Aquilla
| T. Robinson, of Prince Georges coun
tv, vice president; Jos. M. Mattinglv, Of
! St. Mary's county, 2nd vice-president
+. Brooks Matthews, of Charles county
secretary, and Mr.. Gardiner, manager
All of the old directors. with the ex
ception of c. Addison Hodges, who re
signed were re elected. State Senate
Benjamin Watkins. Jr., was elected il
his place.
Mr.. Parran in his address commented
favorably in the work of the organiza
ton during the last year and called at
tention to the future possibilities OF tn
association.

Items from Chillum District

Owing to conf1ictions in ates and
bad weather the meeting scheduled toi
the Woodward School and the Riggs
School, were abandoned or indefinitely
postponed. A meeting to organize a
Community Club had been announced
for the Woodward School on the
evening of November 10Th. A letter
from Mr.. Posey of the same date stated
| that his absence from home, while in
| attendance at meeting or county
| agents at Salisbury had made it I'M
possible to send out the necessary no
tees to the persons, whose presence at
the meeting was desired, aud later
date was suggested. This recommend
alton was adopted, and MIR. Posey
advised that when suitable date Was
decided on new announcements would
be made if forwarded to the school
previously. mo further communication
has been received from that officer.
The musical entertainment which was
to have been conducted by Prof. Glib
son, at the Riggs school on the even
ing of the 10Th was prevented by the
unusually stormy night, and was
great disappointment to the people of
that neighb1rhood who were anticipate
ing most enjoyable occasion. No
further announcement has been receiv-
ed IN regard to the this entertainment
so thir project too seems to have been
abandoned. 1t had been sincerely hop
ed that some sort of community or
ganizstion might have resulted from
the meeting set for the 18th at the
Woodward ssschool. An unsuccessful
attempt.to effect such an organization,
had been made the year previous.
Aside from the construction of some
5000 worth of improved roads, efforts at
cooperation have not met with the
success the cooperative idea merits.
1t had been hoped further, that the
impetus in public school musical i'm
provement that should result from Prof.
Gibson's visit and the entertainment
given would lastingly benefit the schools
in this part of the county. as the pro-
group or chain of music classes at preb-
ably five contiguous schools for the in
structiion of both school pupils and
adults in the respective districts. As
the writer many years ago in the State
of Indiana, had the pleasure of partic-
ipating in such an arrangement being
pupil in one of the five classes of
which our group was composed, the
practicability of the plan and the last
ing benefits to the community generally,
as we'll as the inspirational enjoyment
thus afforded were at once realized and
appreciated.
There being no musical instrument
in the Woodward school when the term
commenced, it was at once decided
that some plan must be devised to Sc
cure one. Examination disclosed that
40 pupil then in school read music
readily enough to play an instrument
satisfactorily for the school. Our di-
lena was dissipated to an extent though
when one of the ladies living nearby
sent word that she could spare an hour
a day, two or three times each week
and in that way assist in learning new
music. Music books had been secured It
start and music or singing introduced
each days work, but music by I'M
trained voices without the support of an
instrument is not always music, much
of the time it is just plain noise.

Christmas Green Hunters

At this time of the year theirs is
much damage to private property by
Christmas green hunters, particularly
in the vicinity of cities and towns.
To protect owners from such de-
predators, law was enacted by the
Legislature of 1918 Chapter 1872
which makes it misdemeanor for any
one, without the written consent OF
personal direction of the owner to cut
or iniare any trees or shrubbery or
thefands or premises of another, sub
..sEet to fine of from $500 to S25. 90
or imprisonment from 80 to 80 days
or both, upon conviction before Jus
tice of the Peace or other court of prop
ec jurisdiction,
Rigid enforcement of this law il
needed for the protection of trees ant
shrubbery, not only along the road
sides, but the protection of grounds
and woodlands of private owners
Active cooperation of land owner
with the county police officers is need
ed to stop the abuses this law is de
signed to correct
