MARYLAND IDEAL FOR VA
CATIONISTS :

Game Warden LeCompte knows his
Maryland, and when he tells vacation
isst that the home State possesses a
greater variety of scenery than any
other State in the Union, he is speak
ing with authority.
Maryland has twenty-three coun-
ties, and Mr.. LeCompte declares that
the scenery changes with every coun-
ty. There is no excuse for quitting
a State with twenty-three varieties
of scenery for another when one is on
recreation bent.
From the rock-ribbed hills of Gar
rett and Allegany to the sandy shores
of Worcester the country is like a
moving picture. The rugged surface
of the far western counties we'll into
the lovely valleys of the Blue Ridges
and then into the rolling hills of Car
roll and Baltimore counties. South
ern Maryland is a region not only of
beauty, but of beauty gilded with ro-
nance and charming traditions and
the Eastern Shore with its broad riv-
ers and colonial mansions has won
the admiration of hundreds of wealthy
northerners who there find attractions
which their own drab native soil can
not rival.
Why should any Marylander seek
respite from care and toll in any other
State when such country as his own
is available?

COAL FROM MARYLAND
MINES

If all Maryland cities and towns
and all managers of public institutions
in the State would initiate the City of
Baltimore in patronizing the coal
mines of Western Maryland, they
would make big dent in the existing
unemployment evil, according to an
estimate quoted by Mayor Jackson, of
Baltimore. .s..
Baltimore has just made contracts
with our mines for fuel and the result
will be the distribution of $4,000 in
wages among the mine workers of
the State. These contracts form a
very small portion of the possible
home consumption of Maryland coal

THE NEW YORK SCANDAL

THERE are two good reasons why the
L municipal scandals in New York City
are of interest to the rest of the country.
IN the first place, Governor Roosevelt
Is a candidate for the presidency; in the
second place. Manhattan, like Chicago,
has become a vast microscope in which
the common evils of American munici-
pal government are enlarged so that
they can be studied easily.
1t is proper, then, for US provincials
to look into things a bit; and the most
striking thing that meets our eyes is the
catastrophe way in the accepted easy
going moral standards that we have per-
mitted our public officials to adopt can
bring forth evil.
Defenders of Tammanys regime in
New York have cried out Indignantly
that the Seabury investigation has not,
except in few instances, shown any
actual, provable corruption. 1t has con-
cerned itself. they complain, with the
private affairs of public men, which are
not the public's business.
Now that is precisely the point of the
whole matter. We have let ourselves
believe that there are certain perquisites
that 90 with public office-perquisites
of the honest graft" variety, which may
be slightly dubious morally but which
do not really make any difference. And
those assumptions are the cause Of the
whole trouble.
II a man holding public office, at
salary of $4,000 year, manages during
five years to bank 5000, ,000-well, as
Tammany's defenders say, that doesn't
really prove anything. But our standards
for officeholders ought to be so strict
that such a man would be thrown out
on his ear without delay.
What the Seabury evidence makes per-
fectly clear is that public official must
stand up so straight that he leans over
backward. He must avoid even the ap-
pearance of evil. He must not profit,
even by the most indirect means, from
the fact that he is in an official posi-
ton.
A public official, in short, cannot have
a private life. The strictest of all stan
dards must be applied to him. Until
we adopt such standards, and make them
stick, we shall continue to have repeti-
tions of this miserable business in New
York.

NO STARVATTON.9

CERTAIN public officials recently have
" taken occasion to congratulate the
United States on the fact that there is
nowhere in the land any actual starva-
ton Those famous reports from 35
governors agreed on that point, and the
''prosperity-is-jubt around the corner"
boys promptly swelled the chorus
Now, however, comes flat contra
dction of this statement.
The Welfare Council Of New York City
publishes a magazine called Better
Times" In its current issue there is an
article by Eleanor FleXner who investi-
gated conditions for the magazine after
the governors had said their say. Here
is what she discovered:
During the year 1881, four New York
hospitals reported 95 cases Of starvation.
These resulted in 20 deaths.
Considering the fact that New York
contains 100000 people, that number,
perhaps, isn't large. But it is worth
while to see just what the hospitals call
starvation.
Going on miserably insufficient ra-
q
a manor child. for that matter-can
live for months on bread and coffee
That person will always feel terribly
hungry. he will get thin and weak, and
he will be a ready prey for the first dis
ease germ that lodges in his system; he
will be, in the eyes of those of us who
are sure of three good meals a day,
starving to death'-but he won't tech
nically, be suffering from starvation. If
he lands in hospital or welfare agen-
cy he will be written down as sufferer
from malnutrition.
Starvation means that person gets
nothing at all to eat-not dry crust,
or cup of weak tea. And during the
past year 95 persons in just that fix
were taken to New York hospitals, and
20 of them died.
The percentage is microscopic, of
course But the fact is there. 1t COM
pletely knocks out that pitiful boast
that ''there is no starvation in the United
States Remember it, the next time
you hear that boast voiced.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
CHIMNEY BIRD

Once upon a time, as Uncle
Wiggily and his wife were sitting
in the hollow stump bungalow
they heard a strange noise. 1t was
a rustling, brushing. peeping sort
of sound.
What is that?" asked Mrs.
Longears VINO was darning some
of her husbands socks. DO you
hear it, Wiggy?"
Yes" answered Uncle Wiggily,
laying aside the paper he was read
ing to find out what the new style
was in carrot shortcake. Il hear a
noise, but it doesn't seem to be in
this ROOM
Maybe it's some Of the Bad
Chaps outside trying to get in,
said the rabbit lady.
Uncle Wiggily listened more
carefully and said
mo, it isn't a Bad Chap. They
make more noise than this. Harkl
I believe the noise is here, in be-
tween the walls" and he put his
paw on the side wall of the room
near which his wife was sitting.
Yes, the noise comes from
there" she said. The dining room
is on the other side of this wall.
Go in there, Wiggy, and see if
Nurse Jane or any of our little
rabbit children are making the
noise by scratching or tapping on
the wall"
Uncle Wiggily hoped into the
other room, but no one was there.
