THEY ARE BACK AGAIN

Is your family clamoring for a
change in the daily diet? Don't
worry. Your problem is solved.
Try oysters. They are in the market
again-came back in September as
per schedule, when the calendar
brought back the months with an
r" in them. And they will be with
us until the RS drop out of the
months again next spring nice,
luscious, juicy Maryland oysters, just
waiting to be served up in an appetite
ing stew; tempting cocktail,
drenched with spicy catsup; ON the
half shell in bed of crushed ice; or
piping hot and buttery, just out of
the steamer; hidden under fiaky pie
crust; fried and handed you with all
the trimmings if you prefer it, you
can have them broiled a delicate
tasty brown. No matter how they
are served, if you are a Marylander
by birthright you'll agree that there
is nothing in the culinary line, that
anywhere approaches real Maryland
oys.ers--raw or cooked.
In order that the Maryland product
may retain it's position of pre-
eminence, oyster handlers and deal
ers throughout the State are asked
20 cooperate actively with the State
Department of Health--which is en-
trusted with the sanitary supervision
of the industry-in their observance
of the necessary sanitary precautions.
In preparation for the oyster season,
the proprietors of oyster handling
concerns In Maryland were notified
during the summer, by Mr.. A. l..
Sullivan, Chief of the Bureau Of
Food and Drugs of the State Depart
ment of Health, of requirements
which must be met for shucked and
canned oysters in order that the pro-
duct may be accepted for sale or

Concerns which meet the sanitary re-

of Health are duly certified. The
certificates expire al the close of the

operations start up again. Each GER

CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE AND
ROLL CALL FOR 1885 r

The American Red Cross and the
National tuberculosis Association
have again agreed upon the specific
periods during which their campaigns
may be carried on.
The Red Cross Branches conduct
the Roll Call from October 18th to
Nov. 28th or Thanksgiving Day. The
Christmas Seal Campaign starts on
Novmber 29th and runs to Christ
mas Day.
Officials of both organizations are
especially anxious that there should
be no confusion in regard to the
dates of these two separate cam
paigns.
The term Red Cross Seal" has
come into use from the time of the
World War, and before, when for ten
years the Red Cross gave the under
taking in this health work. which
was carried on under the National
tuberculosis Association, it's moral
and financial backing, it's emblem
and it's name. The value of such
sponsorship a: time when the
tuberculosis movement was strug-
Cling for existence, would be difficult
to estimate.
The partnership between the
American Red Cross and the National
tuberculosis Association lasted until
1920. In that year the American
Red Cross wished to concentrate its
efforts on the annual Roll Call. Be-
cause it did not wish to appeal to The
public for funds twice a year, new
arrangement was made whereby the
National tuberculosis Association
conducted tie sale alone and used as
the sole emblem on the seals che
double-barred cross. Since 1920 the
seals have been tuberculosis Christ
mas Seals. There is no longer in the
United States any Red Cross seal.
The Red Cross oranization now
uses a Red Cross button which signi-
fies membership in that organization,
and the tuberculosis organizations
sell the seals which is the only source
of income for their work

AN EXPENSIVE LESSON WE'LL

The best of all teachers Is expert

the lesson is thoroughly learned, it
is usually worth the price.
Experience has taught the average
American much about how not 20 in
vent his savings-and, of equal i'm
portance, how to invest them.
He has learned that the average
individual has little chance of invest
ing safely for himself. The promise
of great profits is appealing-but not
when subsequent events prove that
they are to be earned at the risk of
his principal. And he has seen the
value of securities he once believed
to be gilt-edge, tumble 70 almost

preston.
Today many millions of these aver
age citizens are pursuing different
and wiser investment courses than
they ever thought of few years
back. They are turning their money
over to- agencies which can be trusted
to handle it properly-to invest it
safely-and to increase its worth
gradually and soundly. Life insur-
ance, trust funds and similar institu-
tons, with their intimate knowledge
of conservative finance, have become

STATE w. G. T. U. CONVENTION
HELD in BALTIMORE

The State Convention of the
w o m a ms Christian Temperance
Union was held at the st. Marks M.
e. Church, in Baltimore, on October
s, 8, 10, opening with get-together
banquet on Tuesday evening. This
occasion was enjoyed by about
hundred and fifty members and
friends. President, Mary r. Haslup
presided and introduced Rev. Mark
Repp, pastor of the church, Mrs. w.
E. F. Taylor, pres. of Baltimore City
Unions, and Mr.. G. w. Crabbe of the
Anti-Saloon League. Five young
women participated in Pearl Medal
Contest, all rendering their selections
very well, the prize going to Miss
Bell of Montgomery County.
On Wednesday the president gave
her address and reports of the years
work were given by the secretaries
and treasurer and some of the Direc-
tors of Departments. The election
of officers resulted in the reelection
for the forty-second time of Mary r.
Haslup for President. The other
officers were also reelected being
Mrs. w. E. F. Taylor, Vice-President:
Miss Bertha M. Tyson, Corresponding
Secretary; Mrs. j. G. Shawbaker, Re-
cording Secretary, and Mrs. Judson
Hunt, Treasurer.
Mrs. Ella A. Boole, president of
the Worlds w. C. T. u, was guest
speaker of the occasion. In the af-
ternoon she spoke of the larger or
ganization, of which all members are
a part by contribution of one penny
of their annual dues, and of the work
they are doing in several different
countries. They met in Stockholm,
Sweden last year and two years
hence will meet in Washington, D. G.
In the evening her address was ON
"The Battle of the Bottle" She
told of the struggle which is being
carried on on many fronts. She told
of the efforts which were made a.
the National Political Conventions to
combat the Repeal Planks which
were written in both platforms. We
are experiencing the result of this
action and it is an acknowledged fact
that the temperance cause has been
set back fifty years not only in our
own country, but all round the world.
The avowed purpose of the liquor
interests is to. teach the millions of
young people of this country how to
drink. The purpose of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union will
continue to be to teach the nature of
alcohol, what it is and what it does,
when used as a beverage.
The Convention concluded on
Thursday after finishing the reports
of Directors, confirming the election
of these for the coming year and
adopting resolutions embodying the
principles of the organization as they
apply at the present time. All the
sessions were opened and closed with
prayer for Divine Guidance in the
great task before us.

BOYS BADLY b U r N e ID b
CHARGED GUY WIRE

Kenneth Chilcoa., Is years old, of
Joppa, this county, was painfully
burned on the face and body Satur-
day afternoon of last week when he
came in contact with a charged guy
wire, while hunting squirrels.
Chilcoat and William Payne, II,
also of Joppa, both armed with shot
guns, were hunting when the former
accidentally touched guy wire,
which supported high-power cleo
trio transmission pole. The line was
shorted and the guy wire was
charged.
The lads gun flew from his grasp
and he fell against the wire. Payne
grabbed his companions feet, but
was Immediately knocked down. He
then tried to push Chilcoat from the
wire with gun but his hands touch
ed the metal and he again fell.
He tried a wet stick with the same
result. With dry pole, lying near
by, he was able to push the unfortu-
nate boy from the wire.
After partially reviving Chilcoai
with water he ran for help. With
the aid of Stanley Chilcoat the injur

THE JOYS OF HEAVEN
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

The joys of Heaven will not distrac.
Attention from loved ones on earth.
They think about US and love us still,
In that land where all is mirth.
Gone on a little way ahead,
Where pleasures all are found,
They still are just the same to u.s.
Ties only closer bound.
Our hearts entire dependent
On Christ, our Lord and King;
We can do nothing without Him,
Our all to His altar we bring.
Nothing can shake Gods foundation,
His Kingdom is not of this world
Over all of His children everywhere,
His banner of love will unfurl.

The Christmas Spirit.

Observers skilled in the evaluation OF
folk psychology say that there is more
Christmas spirit this year than for a
long time past. They mean that the
excitement in the air is keyed to a
higher pitch, the strange fever OF an
ticipation in the minds and hearts of
people has risen to loftier height of
exuberant tension. But the phenomenon
defies analysis. No one can explain it
satisfactorily. It is another of those curl
Gus expressions Of popular feeling which
history periodically records without ade.
quate exposition Of cause or effect. Per-
haps no measuring stick ever can be
devised for such manifestations Of the
vitality and sensitiveness of the human
soul
But doubtless it does not matter. The
fact that is worthy of mention is that
the basic truth of life is proven by the
response of millions Of men and women,
boys and girls, to the attraction Of the
event. In the language of the Chris
tian religion, it might be said that man
kinds acceptance Of Christmas testifies
for Christ. No skeptic need presume
Evening star., 1935-12-23

to doubt the significance of the Savior's
personality, philosophy or sacrifice in the
face of the evidence of the passion with
which His birth is universally commem-
GRATED.
Certainly it may be granted that there
is some insincerity in the annual cele-
bration of the Christmas feast. But that
is incidental and irrelevant. The masses,
generally speaking, are completely hon.
est in their participation in the Yuletide
observance. They approach the occasion
from different angles, share in its pro-
gram in different fashions. But, even
after due allowance has been made for
variation, the undeniable principle re-
mains-they have acknowledged the
force of love and charity, fellowship and
Joy in their lives!
And If the Christmas spirit is stronger
or more notably vigorous this year it is
a hopeful circumstance. The world
needs the demonstration. With war RAM
pant, poverty pressing with leaden weight
on whole populations and hundred
other threats affecting the race, it is
good that the influence of the Prince OF
Peace, the gentle Galilean who died for
His doctrine of righteousness, brother
hood and mercy, still has influence
enough to stir the multitudes to even
inomentary practice of His teaching.

Registering Protest.

Ever since radio entertainment was
admitted to the homes OF the Amerl-
can people they have wished that they
might have some effective means for
the registration of protest against pro-
grams which they do not like. The need
has dramatic exemplification now and
again when the ether is misused by an
especially offensive performer. Few, in
deed. must be the families who have
not seen mother or dad turn of" pro-
gram with a militant violence OF almost
murderous intensity. In one domestic
establishment, anyway, it has been sug-
gested that father should invent spec
trail cannon with which to shoot crooners
and alleged comedians for whom he has
a special detestation. Several neighbors
have indicated a desire to be permitted
to borrow the weapon when it has been
perfected.
But seriously, it would be helpful II
there were an automatic device by the
operation of which the broadcasting sys-
TENS might gauge public reaction to their
offerings. Experiments toward that end,
it is reported, already are in process OF
development, and thousands must hope
for their success. There is no basic
reason why listeners should be offended.
Rather, it is natural for program spon-
sors to want to please the people. Thus
far the difficulty has been that of the
absence of a standard, yet surely the
genius which has created radio is COM
petent to supply a mechanism by which
that criterion can be established.
Meanwhile, recourse may be had to
writing. Protest may be registered on
post card, mailed to the station re-
sponsible. But those who complain ought
not to forget that they occasionally
should employ similar means for indi-
eating appreciation of programs they like.
The radio networks are entitled to praise
as we'll as blame, and the public ought
to manifest its gratitude, not merely
its resentment.

carefully and with close regard for regu-
lations. Every mile Of the way is veri-
table grade crossing.
1t is idle for the advocates of estab-
lished bus services on the regular high
ways to contend that the busses, such as
that which went into the river at Hope
well, do not travel at dangerously high
speeds. They constantly make such
speeds. They must do so in order to
maintain their schedules, which are a
feature of their competition with the
railroads, Survey of the record of dis
asters Of all kinds, whether the victims
are passengers on the busses or the others
who used the roads in smaller vehicles,
shows unmistakably that speed is the
cause of practically all these mishaps.
The main roads have become veritable
race courses, with the heavy busses main
tanning their time tables at rates which
are forbidden by law in most OF the
States and with all other road users
travelling at their peril.
Had the bus at Hopewell been driven
in accord with the ordinary rules of
safety, at q speed in accord with the
conditions, there would have been no
accident. The failure of brakes is not
in itself an alibi. for the bus should not
have been driven at rate to require
an emergency check when the sign of
danger was clearly displayed. The margin
of safety is too low in these transport
services, which have taken over the
highways to the enlargement Of all
other traffic.
