GUILTY OF Bo0RIsH CONDUCT
City Newspaper Condemns Visitors to
Rural Districts Who Leave Trash
and Litter Behind.

Wayfarers are constantly violating
the hospitality Of those who afford
them pleasant spots for spreading their
basket lunches and eating them be-
meath the welcome shade of spreading
trees. 1t is bad enough to be obliged
to endure such uncivilized practice in
the city; it Is worse when inflicted on
rural districts less able to defend them
selves against ill-mannered intruders.
Motorists who leave smeared scraps
of paper, greasy boxes and scraps of
picnic miscellany behind them after
finishing their lunch are not only in
dulging in boorish Indifference to the
rights of others but are helping de-
stroy their welcome af1eld. Owners of

Proper resentment against tourists who
camp on or near their premises and,
departing. leave such offensive evil
dence of their slovenly habits. Such
conduct is utterly inexcusable.
Only the minority of autoists, OF
course, are guilty of such practices.
But the offensive minority are likely
to prejudice country dwellers against
the whole increasing tribe of tourists.
Against this minority the majority
should set itself firmly, determined to
eradicate an evil that threatens all
alike.-Cleveland Plain Dealer

After Eating Crabs Aboard The
United States Transport
Henderson.

San Francisco.-In a formal
statement issued at 1880 o'clock
Sunday night, President Harding
announced the cancellation of
"his entire California program"
The decision of the President was
made known after conference be-
tween the Executives physicians and
some of his advisers, who discussed
the condition of the President result
ing from the attack of ptomaine pois
oning from which he has been suffer
ing for the last few days.
The following statement was issued:
"The President is deeply apprecia-
tive of the fact that the people of Cal
ifornia and its great Cities have
planned series Of magnificent dem
onstrations in honor of his visit.
"He realizes the great inconven-
fence imposed on public authorities,
volunteer committees and the people
in general by reason of uncertainty
whether the program in which he was
to have participated can be carried
out. He has been particularly con-
cerned to avoid the possibility that
many thousands would travel long
distances and then be disappointed.
Accordingly, after full considera-
ton of all circumstances, he has de-
e;rod tho cto+omant r,,odo prh1io tho
by advice of his physician he will not
attempt to carry out the program ar
ranged for him for San Francisco"
Moreover the President is reluct
antly persuaded that it will be neces-
sary to cancel the entire California
program"
No thought was given at the confer
ence which preceded issuance of the
statement to any substitute for the
cancelled California program and it
was said that the Chief Executive
would remain in San Francisco until
he completely RECEIVERS his health.
How long the President might stay
in San Francisco no one, not even his
physicians, was prepared to say, but
it was generally agreed among those
in the Presidential party that tonight's'
decision indicated that Mr.. Harding's
condition was worse than had been
generally believed.
The belief was expressed that in ad-
dition to cancellation of the California
program the water trip to the Atlantic
Coast by way of the Panama Canal
would be abandoned also, although the
matter was not discussed at tonight's
conference.

SELECTING SITE FOR HOME
Practically Impossible to Give Too
Much Thought to Matter Of Such
High Importance.

Before you build 1t Is necessary to
have parcel of ground. Too much
care cannot be taken in the selection
of site. Remember, it is the spot on
which you and your family will spend
many years, at least that is the gen.
eral supposition, for the building of, q
home is usually one of the highly i'm
portant happenings Of ones life.
Location determines the character
OF house and it has much to do with
The family's happiness and health. If
The person contemplating building
home will observe the following sug-l
gestions when buying or selecting h
Site he will save himself lot Of fh-
ture trouble and at the same time
make an investment that will increase
rather than decrease in value. Here
are the suggestions:
Buy only in a section that is high.
dry and healthful
Locate in neighborhood that is
likely to increase in value and always
be desirable for homes.
ASK about the water supply; where
the water comes from, if the local
system is modern and whether the sup
ply is plentiful.
Churches, schools and stores should
be convenient.
Find out If the section has all mod
ern subsurface improvements, sewers,
for instance.
What is the tax levy? Compare 1t
with previous rates for years.
Why the increase or decrease il
any?
Are gas and electricity easily OBJ
tainable?
Does the site need much grading,
seeding or planting?
What are the transit or transporta-
ton facilities?
What is the travelling time to place
Of business?
What is the expense?
If the property meets these condi-
tions satisfactorily, then you may be
sure of your selection.

Governor Calls For M, D. G v. Data.

Governor Richie announced that he
would expect the committee which he
has appointed to study the Eastern
Shore transportation problem to con-
slider carefully the proposal of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company and
that of the local interests represented
by Attorney Harry E. Karr in hand
ling the Maryland, Delaware and Vir-
ginia Railway line problem.
He is planning to write Mr.. Karr
asking him to outline his proposal
before the committee when it is or
ganized. Mr.. Karr, while declining to
discuss the proposition, said that he
was prepared to work with the COM
mittee in solving the problem.
Up to that time he had not received
notice from Governor Richie that his
proposal would be given equal consid-
GRAFTON with that of the Pennsyl-
vania's proposal.
The Governor said that he expected
early replies from all members of the
committee. AS yet he has not re-
ceived replies from any. However,
there are few on the committee that
he feels sure will serve The commit
tee is considered Representative of
all interests.
The committee named by the Cover
nor is composed of the following:
S. Davies Warfield, president of the
Seaboard Air Line Railway; Fred G..
Boyce, Jr., president of the Mer-
camille Trust and Deposit Company;

STAT E
CAPITAL
Commission On Drum Point R. r.

Annapolis
Governor Richie soon will appoint
a commission to report to the next
Legislature on the feasibility Of
building railroad to Drum Point,
on the Patuxent River, he announced
At the same time, the Governor is
sued a report submitted by the Public
Service Commission of study of the
project by the commissions valuation
engineer, William F. Strouse.
Mr.. Strouse, in conjunction with
other engineers of the Public Service
Commission, examined the route of the
old Baltimore and Drum Point road
from the point where the line crosses
the Washington, Baltimore and Annap-
oils, near Millersville, Anne Arundel
county, to Drum Point and Solomon's
Island. About 80 per cent. of this
sline has been graded for many years.
Cost Of constructing a railroad on
the old graded right-of-way is esti-
mated at $1,36O,OOO. This would reach
Drum Point. But if the terminus is
to be at Solomons Island instead of
Drum Point, the cost would be about
100000 additional. Cost of making
| connection with the Washington, Bal
timore and Annapolis, is placed at
5000.
Connection with the Pennsylvania
Railroad, it is suggested could be
made at Patuxent Station by building
five additional miles of track. The
cost of this connection would be about
SIZE, 900.
A report made in 1914 by S. F.
Griffith, traffic expert of the Inter-
state Commerce Bureau of Washing
ton and Baltimore was attached to
the report submitted to the Governor.
1t was stated Mr. Griffith's views
would not alter the views of the engi-
neers
Mr.. Griffith estimated that the gross
revenue of the proposed road should
aggregate $213,500 in the first year,
and that the operating cost should
average 7240 per cent of this rev.
enue, leaving balance of $58,926 as
the net revenue for the year.
No estimate of the cost of rolling
stock is made, but it was said equip
ment should consist of two gasoline
cars with passenger, baggage and ex-
press units and one locomotive for
freight.
