SMALL FIRE IN
BANK OF DOUGLAS

Considerable excitement was caused
in the business section of the city
just before o'clock last night when
an overheated furnace pipe running
under the threshold of the directors
room in the Bank of Douglas started
the wood and asbestos pipe covering
to smoking heav:::s
The fire department was called by
telephone and then the chief was
summoned by four blasts on the fire
whistle. BY tearing up portions of
the floor and using chemicals and n
garden hose, the firemen quickly
stopped the wood from smouldering.
The burning timber and asbestos
were in a difficult place between the
folor and the cellar ceiling so that
it was necessary to fight the fire
from both the cellar and the main
floor of the bank.
Several employees of the institution
were at work when the smoke was
noticed and a call was sent in for
the department and other members
of the banking force that everything
might be in readiness for an emer-
gency. According ito reports, the
janitor noticed smoke curling UP from
beneath the floor boards covering the
threshold of the directors room, just
after Z o'clock and believing that
perhaps a cigarette was burning,
poured some water ON the spot.
There were no further indications of
a fire until smoke began to pour out
into the hall corridor and into the
bank proper, about o'clock.
Bank officials are unable to ac-
count for the overheated pipe as the
furnace fire was not kept at a high
temperature Monday due to the warm
weather. For time it was believed
that the fire might have started
from a short circuit but investigation
failed to substantiate that belief.
There was no loss except in small
portions of the flooring which it was
found necessary to tear up.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1926

On Tuesday, for the first time
since the adoption of the present
State Constitution in 1867, Maryland
chose at one election complete State
and county administrations. Also,
for the first time in the, fifty-nine-
year period, the officials will be
elected for uniform term of four
years.
At the same time the voters cast
their ballots for a United States
Senator, six Representatives and a
portion of the State judiciary.
The complete local and State
tickets served to arouse keen interest
and bring out a large vote. This,
coupled with the number OF offices
to be voted for, and the usual
splitting" in such cases, served to
make an unusually difficult task for
election officials in counting the
ballots, and resulted in delay in
getting returns.
At this writing. Wednesday morn
ing, the count has not been COM
pleted, and results are not known

LIME FROM LEGUMEs

Legume hays have two great
points of superiority over grass hays
for growing and milking animals;
they contain more protein and more
lime. The high protein is very
important if the hay is being fed
alone or with low protein con-
centrate such as corn or oats. But
the high lime is even more impSr-
tant, because there are no conqen-
trates which contain large amounts
OF lime. AS far as is known therk is
no way to satisfy the lime require
ments of very productive dairy cdws
on winter feed except to give them
large quantities of well cured legqme
hay.

Educators Give Junio
Red Cross High Praise

Growing recognition by leading ed.
ucators all over the world has been an
achievement of the Junior Red Cross
in the last fiscal year.
Included in those which have taken
especially favorable cognizance Of
Junior Red Cross efforts are the
World Federation of Education Asso-
Citations at Edinburgh, Scotland, in
1925, the Department of Superinten-
dence of the National Education AS
sociation, at Washington, 1896, and
the National Education Association
in Philadelphia, June. 1895. Various
State educational bodies have con.
firmed this approval, the report adds.
AS a phase of their work, the Jun
Tors have developed contacts through
exchange of correspondence, with
similar Junior organizations in vir-
tually every part of the world, and
through the development of this me.
dunn many leaders see q better
chance for world peace in future.
An especially notable development
of Junior organization has occurred
in Porto Rico, with an enrolment OF
$4,000, and the Philippines. with
$4,000.
More than 100000 American Jun.
Tors are at work in this organization
OF the American Red Cross. Their
example is held out by the American
Red Cross during the Tenth Annual
Roll Call for membership, az one for
all Americans to endorse BY Joining

period November II to Is this year.

THE LUXURY OF LAWS

: even in the LIBERAL atmosphere
of our present-day free democracies,
legislation is far, from free. Laws
cost an inconceivable amount OF
money to make; enforcement is a
matter of high finance. The ex-
pense is. startling even. when a
dignifed body of statesmen merely
goes through the motions of making
laws, without the questionable con-
ISOLATION of results on the Statute
Book with a possible return on the
Investment in the matter of fines.
Witness .duns sent by the League OF
Nations to delinquent members.
six nations, according to the bills
sent from Geneva, owe the League
more than 100000 gold francs,
overdue payments of the pro rata
expenses. The six nations are
China, Bolivia, Honduras, Near
aqua, Panama, and Peru, not coun-
tries which contribute very great
share to the upkeep of the organiza-
ton of more than fifty Powers, but
which are supposed to have derived
100000 gold francs of good from
the debates on the shores of Lake
Leman.
IF the expenses in Geneva of the
International makers of laws that
are not laws are surprising, the
figures represented by aggregate cost
of national, provincial, country, and
municipal legislation throughout the
world must be astronomical. In the
United States the sum is greatly
augmented by the activity OF amateur
legislators, who, not content with
bills passed and run up by profess
SIGNALS, have frequent and expensive
recourse to the initiative and refer
endum. The State of Oregon, for
instance, had a few bills and amend;
ments to come before its voters In
the election in November. They
made a booklet containing 1O4
pages. To print and distribute hall
a million of these booklets in order
that the voter might regard the bulk
il not the content of his ballot before
going to the polls, cost the State
thousands of dollars. The actual
cost of the election, in some dis
tricts, has been estimated at one
dollar vote, futile expenditure
largely, as many voters have come
to vote No on almost every meas
ure, merely as protest against the
principle of wholesale legislation.
IF legislators would devote few
years to discarding the thousands OF
obsolete laws which now fill the
Statute Books of most countries OF
the world. instead of adding more
dead wood to useless, ocmplex mass
the regulation burdened citizen
might lose his discouraged frown.
1.-THE combination of fewer and
cheaper laws would also meal
better laws.

GOOD MONTHS AND BAD
MONTHS

From State Dept of Health.
A glance at the records kept by
the State Department of Health, OF
sickness and death in, the counties of
Maryland, reveals the fact that
certain months of the year are. like
the little girl with the curl. Some
are very very good; others are
horrid. February and March are
usually the worst offenders, both as
to sickness and death; July and
August the best behaved, so far as
sickness is concerned, while for the
last two years June has recorded the
lowest number of deaths, and there
fore has ranked as the prize month.
Continuous effort to cut down
what the health officers call
seasonal sickness and death is part
Of the health officers job, day in
and day out" DR.. r. H. Riley,
Chief of the Bureau Of Communicable
Diseases said in reviewing the
,ecords of the Department. There
are certain diseases that are more
likely to occur during the summer
md early fall than in the winter.
Typhoid fever, and certain intestinal
disturbances among young children
ire in that class. Other diseases
ire more prevalent in the winter.
N general, what we call the diseases
If digestive system, are more COM
non in summer, while the respira-
.ory diseases or those that affect the
lir passages-the nose. throat and
lungs-are more common during the
colder months.
''Soon after the schools open in
the fall, when large numbers of
children come together in indoor
activities, we know that there is
likely to be a fare-up of certain
catching diseases, especially Of the
so-calledy children's diseases and Of
colds and influenza. The effect of
this begins to be noticeable in the
increased number of cases of sick,
ness reported in November and
December January, February and
March are the worst offenders, with
sometimes one and sometimes an
other leading in the total amount of
sickness reported.
ut is a mistake to treat either the
common cold, or any of the so-called
children's diseases, lightly. 1t is
better to face them for what they
are-wolves in sleeps clothing
treat them accordingly. Consult
your doctor and follow his advice.
'"The months that have bad
record for sickness are usually
months of unfavorable weather.
We can't control the weather. but
we can strengthen our powers OF
resistance by following the well
known rules of the health game
fresh air, the right sort of food,
dressing according to the weather,
and getting plenty of sleep"

INCH OF RAIN Is 100 TONS
To ACRE

Several hundred pounds of water
are necessary during the life OF a
cultivated plant to produce one
pound of mature matter. Thus o
plant such as wheat or corn requires
each day an amount equal to several
times ii own weight. II is not often
that nature supplies just the amount
required for best development
throughout the growing season. A
much greater quantity of water is
supplied to the soil in a moderately
heavy rain than is usually supposed.
With rainfall of one inch. without
loss by run-off. more than 100 tons
of water is supplied 10 one acre of
land.
