High Cost of Building.

The high cost of building material
is often mentioned as the cause OF
housing shortage. Undoubtedly it
has a serious effect on building oper-
atoms. But this being the case,
what excuse is there for maintaining
tax system that increases the cost
of building? Why are buildings of
any kind taxed? Why is building
material subject to taxation, and why
are taxes levied on every labor
product that goes into a building
from the time the raw material is
taken from the earth to the time it
goes into the building? Why are
owners of building sites held out of
use taxed less than owners of similar
sites that have been built upon ?
Taking taxes off of buildings and
building material should have some
effect in reducing their cost. Put
ting taxes on land values would
force vacant land into the market
and cheaper sites. Putting an end
to the monopoly of public highways
by transportation corporations would
make possible cheapening of trans
portation rates. Until such steps are
taken it is idle to complain about
high costs.

Loss of Appetite.

AS a general rule there is nothing
serious about a loss of appetite, and
if you skip a meal or only eat two
meals day for a few days you will
soon have a relish for your meals
when meal time comes. Bear in
mind that at least five hours should
always elapse between meals so as te
give the food ample time to diges,
and the stomach a period of rest be-
fore a second meal is taken. Then il
you eat no more than you crave and
take reasonable amount of outdoor
exercise every day you will not need
to worry about your appetite. When
the loss of appetite is caused by con-
stipation as is often the case, thai
should be corrected at once. A dose
OF Ghamberlain's Tablets will do it

Red Cross Appeal For Needle Service
An urgent appeal has been sent
out by the Potomac Division OF the
American Red Cross to all chapters
in Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia
and the District of Columbia asking
them to again call together their
workers and press into service the
needles, which were laid aside some
months ago. This time it is not a
matter of comforts for fighting men
but actual covering for thousands OF
children and adults in Europe, left
utterly destitute by the World Wal
and it's aftermath of Affections anC
horrors.
Hundreds of thousands of layettes
and other articles of children's wear
ing apparel are needed particularly
and at once, according to the cables
received, daily, at Red Cross ma
tional headquarters, from RESPONSE
BILE persons abroad These messages
reveal the increasing misery of the
people there, beset by disease, famine
and conditions rapidly approaching
state of complete chaos.
Officials of the Red Cross here state
that the same patriotic fervor which
inspired untiring effort in war time
shold find expression in the desire
to serve humanity anew in ono of 1t:
most terrible emergencies. The re
ports which they are receiving from
the countries of Central and Eastern
Europe make it clear that in these
war ravaged lands civilization has
broken down. Disease, bereavement
and suffering are present in practic
ally every household, while fooe
and clothing are insufficient to make
life tolerable. Men, women ano
children are dying by the thousands

Justice Bailey in the District Su
preme Court dismissed injunction
proceedings brought by Charles +.
Fairchilds, of New York, president
of the American Constitutional
League, to prevent the PRONUNCIATION
of the ratification of the suffrage
amendment and to test the validity
of the equal suffrage law.
The Court held that it was without
authority to inquire into the action
of the State legislature in ratifying
the suffrage amendment, and it had
no authority to pass on the validity
of such amendment. 1t was pointed
out that the necessary number OF
States have not notified the Secretary
of State of the ratification of the
suffrage amendment, and that, there
fore, no proclamation is imminent

Five Day Courses In Agriculture.

The entire corps of specialists, pro-
lessons and scientists at the Cnlver-
sity of Maryland will be available as
instructors during club week, from
August End to 9Th, when boys and
girls from all parts of the State will
be at the University for a fiye-day
course in agriculture.
Realizing the value or club work
in building a permanent foundation
for better agriculture in the State,
President A. F. Woods has placed all
the facilities of the University at the
disposal of those who have the Club
Week program in charge. This not
only includes the teaching staff at
the University but the use OF the
dormitories, dining hall and athletic
field. The experiments in progress
at the Experiment Station and the
scientific equipment in the labora-
tories also will be subject to the in
spection of the young visitors.
Actual demonstrations will be
used to illustrate the various courses
of instruction and every effort will
be made to interest the club mem
bers and to prevent the subjects from
becoming tiresome. Inst u n
periods will be confined entirely to
the morning hours and the after
moons and evenings will be left free
for sports. games and entertainment
features. The courses, however, will
be intensive and will cover such sub
jects as farm machinery, animal
husbandry, poultry raising and farm
crops for the boys; and canning,
dressmaking, millinery and home
furnishing for the girls.
On Thursday, August 5th, the club
members will spend the entire day
sightseeing in Washington. Special
cars will take the boys and girls
from the University to Washington
where they will be divided into
groups to visit such places of inter
est as each group desires to see.

sion to pass on their demand for in
creased wages, could have obtained
the increase long ago and at the
same time reduced prices to con-
sumers had organized labor used its
power in behalf of legislation to tax
coal-bearing lands high enough to
absorb the full rental value. Such
legislation would have compelled the
owners to make proper use of the
lands and keep miners working full
time. The demand for labor would
have forced up wages. Increased
production of coal would have forced
down prices. And the operators
could have been given relief by ex-
emption of their machinery ana i'm
provements from taxation and also
by being assured better transpor:a-
ton rates not providing for divi-
dends on watered stock. That is
what might have been. But since
no such policy has been adopted,
underpaid miners are humbly beg
ging government commission to
grant them an increase, which is
likely to be used by the operators as
an excuse for increased prices.
