cHILDREN's HOMES.
Annapolis, Md,
April 10, 1921.

Among the activities of the Saliva
ton Army not generally known, though
of vital Importance. are the Children's
Homes.
Throughout the world, there are 81
Of these accommodating about 1000
children orphaned or dependent
In the United States, there are five,
and in Maryland one.
Poverty, desertion. sickness and
death of parents all contribute to
make this work for children neces-
sary. Frequently 1t is found best to
remove child from its parents-then
1t is at once obligatory to- provide a
home.
Skilled dieticians plan and prepare
the food for the little bodies, often
wasted by inherited diseases or from
long neglect and lack of nutritious
food and sanitary care.
In these homes no baby is too small.
too i'll or too obscure of origin to be
admitted. and no effort too great to
bring back child to normal condi-
ton. There are no barriers to any
child who needs its care-neither race,
color. creed nor condition is consid
cred.
In New York City in one of these
homes out of 40 babies under year
old. 5 were foundlings picked up on
doorsteps, from the subway and from
ash cans. wrapped in newspaper and
entirely devoid OF any mark of identi-
ecation. They had been thrown out
by heartless parents as refuse to die.
One of these, named by the city,
John Mcdonald, now about three
months old is sturdy beautiful boy.
The non-institution idea prevails
and no two dresses or rompers are
alike. and these homes furnish SPLEEN
did examples of the Salvation Army's
investment in citizenship-for it be-
heves every baby worth its weight in
gold, and by this means provides those
thrown upon its bounty with a care
free love sheltered babyhood, and a
good education which embraces voca-
tional and, spiritual training, as well
as the regular public school education
A model Home is at Lytton Springs,
Sonoma county, California, to which
place the courts OF the State commit
great number OF boys and girls, all
of.whom are cared for in the best way
possible. The instruction and training
comprehends all that is included IN /.
public school education and added
thereto are the most practical lessons
in farming. dairying, Embarrassing,
with courses in domestic science spe-
cially for the girls. Music, both vocal
and instrumental, has place in the
curriculum, but the thing regarded as
of supreme importance is the moral
training of the young.

WEST STREET AND THE ROTARY
CLUB

As Chairman John n. Mackall,
OF the State Roads Commission,
said in his letter published in yes
terday's Evening Capital, the
Rotary Club, of Annapolis, is to
be congratulated on its move to
have West street repaired in the
immediate future. Likewise the
City Council is to be congratu-
tied for so promptly acting on
the petition. By this kind of Co
operation the desired result is
sure TO be accomplished.
An interesting phase Of this
matter is that it tends TO show
just what the Rotary Club means
to the community. Service" and
action" are the two words which
probably best sum up its mission.
Similar clubs exist all over the
country and a record of achieve
ment can be shown wherever they
operate. The field here offers a
very ripe program for the club to
adopt, and it is encouraging to
note that one by one, and per-
haps more than one at time,
these problems will be dealt with
until the right answer is obtained.
Following up the sewerage. props
osition and that concerning a pure
and adequate water supply have
been mentioned as being next in
line for constructive action. 1t
is refreshing to note that a force
of this character is growing up
in the community.

THE POSTPONEMENT OF SCHOOL
IMPROVEMENTS

The inability to sell at this
time the Anne Arundel county
per cent. school Improvement
bonds was not unexpected, and
while it will mean a postpone
ment in granting the relief to the
schools, this need be but tempo
rary. for the County Board Of Ed
ucation have full authority under
the law to again offer all or any
part of the bond issue whenever
they deem the time opportune.
The urgent necessity for the
improvements which the sale of
these bonds would provide is no
longer open to question, and as
this issue affords the only avail
able means for raising the money,
outside OF the prohibitive bur
den of direct taXation,-the early
floating of the issue is earnestly
looked for by those interested in
the schoolS.-which means all
sections of the county.
The present stringency of the
money market reflects the state of
financial and industrial unrest
and depression that has existed
for some time, but we are OPP
timists enough to believe that
things will soon brighten up suf-
fciently to show people with
money to invest that gilt edge
county bonds at 5 per cent, re-
naming undisturbed for a fixed
period of 30 years.,compare most
favorahly with the. speculative
issues that have been flaring up
in the money market from time
to time.
We can only trust that realiza-
ton OF this by the investors will
come, soon enough to meet the
pressing needs of our county
school building plant.

AS To Purees

The torn PURGE is used in three
senses-as soup. as vegetable and
as a sauce. All purees are made by
boiling or stewing vegetables in broth
or water, passing the mixture, when
cooked, through a sieve.
If it is to be used as a soup. the
pulp is diluted with stock, milk or
water to the consistency of thick
cream.
If it is to be used as soup, the
consistency varies with the material
employed, but may be described. as a
rule, as being thinner than the vege-
table and thicker than the soup, as
tomato sauce.
Soup purees do not keep, usually,
more than twelve hours in moderately
warm weather, and not much longer
in winter
Russia seems to be in the hands OF
a Lootocracy

were at all qualified to cope with the
problems lent every effort. but none oil
them worked more effectively than the
Salvation Army.
1t was not a new work for the Saliva
tion Army. merely an old joo en-
iarged and broadened. For many years
through many an unemployment crisis
the organization has successfully con-
Quoted what is probably one OF the
mosts efficient interstate employment
agencies with branches In every large
city throughout the length and, preadtn
of the land. t,.4 ~ 50
During the last year The salvation
Army. found employment for $4,000
men and women. The positions found
ranged anywhere from the lowest no1
sitions of unskillsd labor TO the most
highly specialized professional work
with. of course, a great preponderanee
toward the former. for in employment
as in everything else the primary oo-
ject of The Salvation Army is to help
those who cannot help themselves.
Nor does the work Of The Salvation
Army stop with fitting the job 10 the
man. 1t makes the man fit the job as
well. Those who apply for work shah
by and down at the heel are given
good clothing and neat shoes in order
that they may apply for the positions
to which the Army sends them with
no physical handicaps. Scores of sol
diers discharged from the army with
little or no money have found warm
friend. financial aid and free suit

announces the London Times. 1t is
the site in Thames street, next to
Cannonstreet station, of the City of
London Brewery, known since the
days of Queen Elizabeth as the only
brewery In the city OF London. The
date of the Foundation of the brewery
is so remote. that it is difficult to fix
the year. There are proofs in various
ancient documents and archives of the
brewery that it was flourishing In 1880.
Stow mentions it. The Calyerts, a
family of brewers celebrated in the
annals of the trade for the quality
of their porter, were the most notable
men who brewed beer with Thames
water on that site. In 1760, Sir VII
liam Calvert was the fourth brewer
in London, and Calvert and Seward, of
Whitecross street, were the first, the
former brewing 81, 7S5 barrels, and the
latter 74.T04 barrels in that year. Lit
tie of the old buildings remain save
an old mill loft and part of the
wall Of the Watermen's hall, which
had been burnt down in the fire of
London in 1866, rebuilt on the site Of
the Allhallowes church, and after
ward Incorporated with Calverts. At
the end. of the eighteenth century i'm
portant additions and alterations were
made and some of the walls of the
present buildings date from 1772.

time. So he produced "Precaution,"
commonplace story of English high
life, of which Cooper knew nothing.
Advised to turn to adventure in his
own country, he wrote 1.-THE Spy" In
1921 and published it at his. own ex-

once recognized as a novelist of force.
In the twenty years that followed
he brought out many novels. including

rather than sell for twenty-five

made to all corners, in not more

Gas Warfare on Rats.

The chemical warfare service has
recently demonstrated that rats can
be killed with poison gas. A mixture
containing 80 per cent of phosgene
and 20 of chlorine was used. This
was allowed TO escape over an area
Of 900 square feet. Fifteen rats were
on the area, and they all died from
the effect of the deadly poisonous
gases.
They were killed at a cost of 40
cents. Within 10 minutes the phos-
gene had dissipated, while the chlor-
inc gas required 30 minutes to diffuse
beyond the danger point. In view of
the millions Of dollars loss caused
yearly by these pests. any means CT
destroying them is welcome.

A few days ago there appeared an
article in the several papers of the
State from the State Game Warden
stating that shad. the favorlte of "ye
finny tribe" were being depleted, or
rather entirely run out. This state
ment caused considerable concern
among the lovers of this animal (for
our statute law says the Word animal
includes every living creature, except
mani. But this concern or fear may
be dispelled. This morning John
Frank, one of the leading fish dealers
in this section, informed me that there
are more shad being caught around
here this season than for twenty
years past Yesterday. he said, 10000
pounds of them were shipped from
thish city. while the price for home
supply. which is ample. is now rea-
