favorite song, a Mozart lullaby, In

played on the monograph which had
lulled him to sleep so often. And. as
the friends were gathering, other
sacred selections sounded softly thru
the riot of the birds in the foliage.

Gunners Report Game Scarce

Gunners are facing a scarcity of
game this year despite the efforts
made by the game wardens to stock
the country with rabbits and quail in
April and May. 1t is supposed that
the wet weather killed off many of
the young rabbits and young birds but
experts in this work declare that the
lack of game is due to the running of
dogs and cats in the country districts
and the prevalence of foxes, which
apparently steadily increase in num-
bers. Gunners who have been hunt
ing along the Delaware Bay marshes
report finding very few reed birds be-
cause of the late season and the fact
that the reeds which the birds feed
on are not yet ripe. The gunners
also say that squirrels are very scarce
and the lack of food for them looks
as if there will be even less this year.

Iodine and GOitre

The belief that the disease of gOitre
is due to the want of iodine in the
thyroid gland has been attacked by a
distinguished European physician. Yet
two goitre sections Of the United
States, centering in Michigan and
Idaho, are the ones where, analysis
shows, there is the least iodine in the
water 1t has been computed that 1t
would take a human being a thousand
years to drink enough Lake Superior
water to obtain as much iodine as
exists in the thyroid gland. The
places where gOitre is the least preva-
lent, along the seashOres, are those
having the most iodine in the surface
waters.-TOledO Blade.

Maryland's corn crop this year will
be the shortest since 1900, according
to John S. Dennee, agricultural sta
tistician for the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. A crop of
15,69O,OOO bushels is expected, Mr..
Dennee said, while the average pro-
duction for the last five years has
been 25,5OO,OOO bushels. The cold,
wet spring and summer drought are
blamed for the short crop, although
the acreage planted in corn this year
was smaller than usual. Should an
early frost overtake the crop, farmers
say, the prospect will be even more
dismal.

Registration Loss
Discussed BY Women

Disillusionment and not loss Of the
novelty of voting is partly responsible
for the drop in registration of women
this year, in the opinion of women
leaders in politics.
There are number of contributing
causes, Miss Lavinia Engle, manager
of the Maryland League of Women
Voters, believes, not the least of which
is the general indifference of the po-
tential voter.
This is true of men as well as
women" said Miss Engle, 'but with
women there is a lack of realization
that politics has any vital part to play
in their lives, which adds to the diff
Guilty of bringing out the women
voters"
Speaking to meeting of women at
the Homewood Friends Meeting House
Miss Engle said the registration
Tuesday did not bring the number Of
women hoped for by the Maryland
League of Women Voters. 1t means
that the league must work harder to
educate more women to translate into
politics their interest in public life"
she declared.

SIS, OBS, $50 Given AS Total
Of Industrial Investments

Baltimore.-Two new factories and
10 plant extensions, representing an
investment of $5,035 $50, were reported
by the industrial bureau of the Balti-
more Association of Commerce as
representing prospective industrial
growth of the city during September.
The new plants, which will cost ap-
proximately $4,000, the report stated,
will employ about las men. The ex-
pansions were given prospective
value of $5,OOO,550 and employment
possibilities of 274 additional workers.
The proposed $4,000,O 900 power plant
of the Gas and Electric Company
headed the list of expansions, while
the operation of the Hess Steel Com
pany's factory, which has been idle for
several years, by the Carbon Steel
Corporation, is given as one of the
interesting industrial developments of
the month.

"No Parking" Signs
Now On State Roads

Annapolis.-Work of erecting per-
manent mo parking opposite white
line" signs at curves and grades on
State roads is now under way, John
N. Mackall, chairman of the State
Roads Commission, announced.
Temporary paper signs were placed
more than a month ago, but practically
all were destroyed by rain and wind
last week, Mr.. Mackall said.
The new signs are made of metal,
similar in appearance to those erected
temporarily, and $500 of them are be-
ing placed. They are to be erected at
all points where the roadway is
marked with a white line dividing the
road at curves and grades.
According to Mr.. Mackall, no VIOLA
tions of the new rule forbidding park
ing at such danger points have been
reported since the signs were first
placed. There have been fewer acct
dents in consequence, due to roads
being unobstructed, he said.

Appeal 70 Be Filed
In N. G. 3. Stock Case

Thomas H. Robinson, Attorney-Geh-
eral, announced he would file an ap-
peal from the decision of Judge Chas.
F. Stein, in the Circuit Court, dismiss
ing the suit of the Public Service Com
mission versus the Northern Central
Railway Company.
The commission had asked the court
for an injunction restraining the rail-
road company from issuing stock with
out the sanction of the commission.
Judge Stein held that the company is
carrier within the meaning of the
transportation act of Congress and SO
is not required to apply to the COM
mission for an order authorizing the
issue of 71,000 shares of stock to the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. This
matter is within the exclusive juris-
diction of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, Judge Stein held.
