u. S. Makes Newsprint
AS War Affects Supply

Continuation of the current decline
in United States imports of over
seas newsprint and pulp is putting
the burden of supply on United
States and Canadian producers.
However, while pulp imports have
sagged sharply in recent months,
United States converting mills built
up substantial supplies during the
closing months of 1889 and dur
ing the first two months of 1910.
Thus, while these built-up stocks are
being eaten into, expansion of Unit
ed States producing capacity and
imports from Canada are consid-
cred sufficient to meet United States
requirements.
Meanwhile the spread of the Eu-
ropean war to the north which shut
off Scandinavian supplies of both
pulp and newsprint, served to elm
mate pulp imports from these coun-
tries, which last year amounted to
about Is per cent of the total pulp
consumption and per cent of the
total newsprint consumed in the
United States.
In 1889 the United States imported
1,388,O00 tons of all grades of pulp,
which represented Is per cent OF
this country's consumption. Fin
land, Norway and Sweden together
supplied "a per cent of all grades OF
pulp imported by the United States
last year with the remaining small
portion coming from other sections
of Europe. Last year the United
States imported 31O,383 tons Of
newsprint or 8.8 per cent of the con.
sumption total for 1899.
For the first six months of 1916
the United States imported 28,37i
tons of newsprint as compared with
the 159, $40 tons imported from over
seas in the first half of 1899.

constitute a violation of the Regula-
tions and, in addition, shall be con-
strued as prima facie evidence of his
failure to register, Colonel Stanwood
said.
Colonel Stanwood also announced
another amendment to the Regula-
tions pertaining to late registration
which makes it compulsory that,
every person subject to registration
who for any reason failed to register
on the day fixed by the President for
his registration must present him
self for and submit to registration
before a local board"
"This means that every person SUBJ
ject to registration on October Is,
1910, must register if he has not al
ready done So" Colonel Stanwood de-
clared. at does not apply to per-
sons who have become FL years of age
since last October 16, as the will be
required to register only if the Presi-
dent proclaims a second registration
date"
Violation of the Regulations may
cause delinquent to be penalized by
fine or Imprisonment or both, Colonel
Stanwood pointed out.

Perch
Being Released
For Public Use

Approximately 25O,0O0,000 yellow
perch are being released for the Con-
servation Department in the public
waters of Maryland this week by the
authorities of the Chesapeake Biologi-
cal Laboratory. Every river and ma
ior branch thereof will receive hun
dreds of thousands of these immature
fish produced from more than 300,-
100000 eggs collected and Matched by
the Laboratory.
Yellow perch constitute an increas-
ingly important commercial and
sports fishery of Maryland. The spec
les, known to scientists as Perca
flavescens thrives and is especially
abundant in many of the areas in the
upper slightly brackish waters Of the
State. The Conservation Department
is now planting fry in. all areas,
whether productive or not, that prove
chemically, physically, and biological
ly fit, in the expectation that the pro-
ducing areas may be extended. Sur
veys are being made to determine the
fitness of all areas before paintings
are carried out.
Perch Matching operations are car
ried on at two points in the State, at
Severn Run and on the Chester River.
Spawn is taken after natural de-
position and placed in special screen
ed boxes which are anchored in cur
rents to effect agitation, oxidation,
and development. This method of
Matching has been highly efficient
this year due to the abundance of
yellow perch brood stock and the alb
sence of damaging storms.
Young perch are hauled in ten gal
Ion cans of water from the central
hatcheries to the points of release
whether in Worcester, St. Mary's OF
Cecil county, and arrive in good con.
dition. Before the fry are released
the temperatures of the stream anC
the water in the cans are made the
same, thus avoiding high mortality
Fish planted this year grow suffic
iently in two year to meet legal re-
quirements, though their life span j!
much longer.
Upwards of 4,375 perch fry were
released in Worcester County during
the week as follows:
Nassawango, 625,OOO; Pocomok'
River, (above Snow HilD, 625,000
Pocomoke River, (above Pocomok'

Colonel Stanwood made his an

from National Headquarters which
pointed out that while the old pro-

Regulations provide:
"The registrant must have his reg

DRAFTEES DO NOT
WELL INTERPRET
THEIR CONTRACTS

Widespread misunderstanding on
the part of draftees as to the proceed
ures available to them for termina-
ting or adjusting finance contracts on
basis that will be equitable to them
selves and to the companies, was re-
ported by the American Automobile
Association today.
Thousands of draftees either do not
understand the protection afforded
them under the Soldiers and Sailors
Relief Act of 1910 or have wholly
exaggerated conception of the amount
of relief the Act provides, the A. A.
A. pointed out.
In calling attention to a condition
prevalent throughout the country
and which may contain the seeds of
much trouble for draftees, for COM
panies, and for the courts, the Asso-
citation recommended nationwide a.
doption of the plan originated in
Washington, D. c., namely, the set
ting up of special committee which
will seek to arbitrate cases when the
selectee is unable to reach an ami
cable agreement with the finance
company.
Commenting on the situation and
the recommended proposal, Thos. P
Henry of Detroit, Michigan, President
of the national motoring body, had
this to say:
"This plan should go forward pre-
venting difficulties that may arise be-
cause of what appears to be rather
widespread misunderstanding as tc
the terms and purposes of the Sol.
diers' and Sailors Relief Act, and the
A. A. A. has recommended to Selec.
tive Service System that it consider
advisability of encouraging similar
procedures throughout the nation.
"The Soldiers and Sailors Relief
Act provides that when an install
ment contract has been entered into
prior to the effective date of the ACT
October II, 1940-the finance com
pany may not repossess the property
without either a court order or writ
ten agreement signed by the draftee
If the case goes to court, and more
than half the amount of the contracr
has been paid, the judge has the right
to stay all proceedings until after the
debtor has been discharged from mill
tary service; if it is less than hall
paid for, the judge may not stay the
proceedings but may make such 9th
err disposition of the case as seems t.
him just, including the ordering o.
repayment of all or part of the a
mount paid in.
"There are no specific provisions il
the Act covering contracts entered
into subsequent to October II, 1910
and so-called peaceful repossesions
without court order or written agree
ment are not prohibited. However, i
the draftee should prevent reposses
sion and thereby throw the case int

sonal grooming. Each club had some
phase of this to develop and the ex-
hibits were very interesting. The
Taste and Basic Club put on a doll
exhibit, which was arranged by Re-
becca Shockley, besides the old-fash-
Toned hats which were a part of the
personal grooming show. Schleisner
and Company exhibited modern lin
gerie in comparison to the old-fash-
toned.
In the library was Mrs. Julia Pur-
nell's famous needlework exhibit
which proved quite fascinating for
those who had never before been priv
legged to see it.
The day was big success and the
members of the Taste and Basic Club
wish to take this opportunity to
thank all those who helped make it
so.
GLEE CLUB

some beautiful music which will in

lean folk songs, and Men of Harleck,
the Welsh national anthem.

The most effective of all appeals

provisions of the Act would apply.
Assuming a spirit of cooperation,
wider knowledge of the meaning of
the Act, and with special committees
set up to aid in reaching amicable
agreements as to terms of settling

a minimum of inequities and misun-
derstanding in the handling of these
cases."

SCIENCE CLUB

On Friday, April 10, 1871, the
Science Club met at 1880. Upon ar
rival two movies were shown. The
first picture dealt with the New
York Worlds Fair of 1910. Those
who had been to the fair could re-
call many of the scenes. The sec
ond film dealt with one of our west
ern national parks, Bryce Canyon
This park was at one time covered
by water. These many years under
the sea, have caused the rocks to
change into many shapes, and has
dyed them in many beautiful colors.
After these movies we discussed
those eligible for Science Club next
year.

Without worrying too much about

adjustment.
She says her happy relations at
school are due to "a grand bunch of
girls" That can't be all the story.

sides, And. as an old friend of Shirley's.

the person, wasn't a too-sweet goody-
goody. She hated babying She liked
action. Let's do something summed
up her personality.
That's Shirley today. She retains
the quick enthusiasm that gave her
roles bounce" She still loves action.
Coming back to the screen, after a
year and half away, was no easy job.
When the first day of the new picture
came, Shirley was just plain scared.
Would she remember what she had
known? Had she kno,Cn anything? She
had been big enough. for some time, to
notice things about herself in the
papers - to understand the question
that has been asked by critics and
columnists again and again: SIS she
just cute little girl? Or is she a future
actress?" Worry about her future
wasn't in Shirleys mind. She was just
asking herself, over and over, Twill l
do this right?"
1t wasn't until the second day of
shooting that both Shirley and Di-
rector Harold S. Bucquet felt that
everything was "all right" Bucquet
had never known Shirley, but he had
seen her on the screen - and he didn't
like her. They made her too sweet"
he says, "and l didn't think she could
act for shuCks."

They had left it open, the doctor and
resident nurse, to hear Una if she
should happen to come in. Dyke went
to the doorway, shook his head.
Lynn suggested, TRY some of the
private cabins. Those that are still
lighted may be having late supper
parties" She didn't say, TRY some
of the dark empty cabins" :" She only
thought it.
"I'll run downstairs and tell Reilly
to check on them. Nothing more we
can do here except our utmost to
keep the patient alive until his wife
comes" Dyke prepared an injection
of digitalis, gave instructions to the
nurse and hurried out.
LYNN knelt beside the bed. She laid
her hand gently over the frail hand
on the cover. The fingers curved
through hers. They felt like wet clay.
Suddenly he murmured, Mary"
Keep him alive until his wife
comes" DR.. Dyke had said. Until his
wife comes. Una who didn't care
whether he lived or died, who this
minute was with. Not with Rod!
Not that punishment for Rod!
The nurse came over to the bed and
gave the injection. Then they waited.
The minutes ticked by.
MARY" 1t was a faint call.
Lynn bent down whispering, "Yes,
dear -" The hand in hers stirred.
Keep him alive until his wife comes!
-. Mary was the wife he wanted.
Lynn moved nearer so that her face
was close to his on the pillow. ITS
a long journey, darling, but you won't
have to 60 alone"
He made an effort to prop himself
up. The nurse placed him gently back
on the pillow. She counted his pulse,
frowned.

Henry Calthrop turned his face to
her. As the glow of an altar candle
spreads softly, peace touched it. The
place was very still, the suspended
moment between a short span of life
and eternity.
Lynn heard the door open. DIR.
Dyke entered and shut it again. The
fingers holding Lynn's relaxed, fell
away. DR.. Dyke lifted Calthrop's
hand, then let it drop.
Lynn got up from her knees. The
face on the pillow - all the pain was
gone from it, all the gaunt tragedy.
She had been able to do this for him.
She turned; saw Rod standing by.
The doctor was saying. Thank
you, Mrs. Masters. It's tough for
a man to die without a woman to
wish him Godspeed.'
Lynn scarcely heard him. She was
wondering about Rod. How long had
he been here?
Swift footsteps crossed the next
room. Una Calthrop stopped short
in the oblong of light. Her breath
came quick and terrified. ''Dr. Dyke.
is he -?"
We've been looking everywhere
for you, Mrs. Calthrop. You should
have left word you were in Mr..
Burke's cabin. told you yesterday
not to leave your husband without
telling me where to locate you"
Rod took Lynn's hand, the hand
that few minutes ago had led Henry
Calthrop out of darkness. Neither
spoke until they reached their room.
Lynn went to the window opening
on the balcony. The world outside
was bathed in silver light. Rod stood
beside her you believed she was
with me, didn't you?"
