A ChiId's View.

A Columbus woman and her four
year-old daughter attended a moving
picture show recently, and the picture
developed rather an unexpected angle,
in that a person who had appeared
on the screen for some time, appeared
to be the spirit Of man who had
returned to earth in order to make
a confession and right wrong. The
woman was discussing the picture
with friend, and both expressed as
constituent at the outcome OF the
story, saying they never had dreamed
it was man back from the grave.
The little girl listened with intense
interest, then said: "Well, mother,
now that l think of it, did think that
man had sort Of mOldy look."-ln-

- Order in Court
A young judge had a bootlcggcr
brought into his court and he was in
doubt as to how much he should give
him. He telephoned to one Of his
older colleagues and the following
conversation took place:
"How much do you think / ought
to give him." asked the young judge.
"Not more than So quart, and get
a couple of bottles for me while you're
at it," replied the older judge.

BLUFFED His WAY H0MEWARD
War Veteran, Stranded in China, FL
naIIy Got Back to the States
on His Nerve.

Earl Stanley, young American war
hero and world traveller, walked boldly
up the gangway leading to the China
mail liner, China, while the vessel was
at Hongkong, presented his passports
to the proper authorities, picked out
q convenient officers stateroom and
deposited his two suitcases. This
done, he picked out a deck chair
where he could take in his new sur
roundings and proceeded to make
himself at home and comfortable.
For period Of 4S hours young
Stanley enjoyed the hospitality OF the
vessel without any Interference from
the otficSrs of the China. Then he was
asked where his ticket was, who he
was, whittier he was going and lot
Of other questions. ~@.-. ~ So
TO the first interrogation he non
chalantly told his interviewer that
he did not have a ticket. calling for
his passage, what his name was, and
that he lived in Pasadena, CAL, with
San Francisco as his port Of bidding
aGieu to the China. He also volun-
teered the information that. he was
a student at Occidental college before
the travelling bug entered his head.
Stanley's chances Of reaching his
desired destination were slim, as he
would be elected from the vessel at
one of the nearby ports, when Capt.
J. G. Daily and Robert Pitt, travel
ing on the craft, appeared as happy
mediums. After hearing Of Stanley's
embarrassment they quickly settled
the matter by arranging to pay his
passage. - ''

TO THE VOTERS OF (THIS)
DORCHESTER COC My

Cambridge, Md, Aug. 4, '21.
| hereby announce to the voters OF
this county that | am a candidate
for the nomination of State Senator
for Dorchester County, and, il,
nominated at The Primaries and
elected at the General Election, L
shall use my influence that l may
have, by virtue of the senatorship,
to reduce the burden of taxation
which is now weighing so heavily on
the shoulders of the people OF the
State to abolish the many useless Of
fees which have been created as re-
wards for political services.
1t would give me the greatest
pleasure of my life to know that l
had used the opportunities that were
afforded me to lessen the burden OF
the people of my State and abolishing
Judges pensions, by doing away
with The Conservation Commission
which is now costing the State near
ly 100000, each year, The State In
dustrial Accident Commission, whose
functions can all be exercised by
The Courts, but which is now cost
! ing the State nearly 900 per
veal Inc DCIh1CS
now costing $50 600 per year; the
office Of Commissioner of Motor We
hicles, now costing over 100000,
per year and various other useless
commissions and expenses.
The Constitution OF the State re
quires that the seat of the State
Government shall be at Annapolis,
and l believe that it is the duty OF
| the next General Assembly to see
| that all the State offices that are now
I in Baltimore. shall be removed back
| to Annapolis, where the Constitution
says they shall be. l think the wis
dom of this will be easily seen when
| one counts that the State is paying
| annually, for rented offices in Balti-
more City from 100000 to $780,
| 600 yearly.
| If nominated and elected to the
State Senate, l shall oppose any leg
islation looking to the increase of the
| representation from Baltimore City
| shall support and vote for any
! measure that is necessary to put the
women voters of the State on per
feet equality with the men, in every
| respect.
