Cross it's fabulous demand that Ne
gro blood be segregated in the

sistence as to make their point, that
they would rather their wounded

should receive Negro blood into

In the face of such intense feel

seem weak. But whatever ones can
be found must be used until the
victory over this most pathetic and

Ans: You tasted the bitter fruits

found no satisfaction. Possibly the

you untold happiness for awhile
but you soon realized that some

have for your wife is something en-

than the precariOus thrills you ex-
perience in the presence of this
young girl. Remain alOOf from

5th War Loan
Drive Brings
Varied Programs
To Honor Service Men -
Farm Auction - Victory
Breakfasts, Etc.

Richard F. Green, chairman of
the Montgomery County Fifth
War Loan campaign, today an
nounced that a good deal of the
solicitation in connection with the
drive will revolve around Indepen-
dence Day, which occurs during
the campaign.
The public schools participation
in the program will be in charge
of DR.. Edwin w. Broome, county
superintendent. The quota for this
group is $30O,0OO.0O. DR.. Broome
is arranging with the schools per-
sonnel and parent-teacher groups
to conduct a separate campaign in
each Of the schools, and the fact
that the schools will close for the
summer on June 16 will not be per-
mitted to interfere with the work
of selling bonds. Each of the
schools has been assigned quota.
F. Barnard Welsh, Rockville at
torney, who is chairman of the
Rotary groups participation in the
county quota, pointed cut that
there are approximately 10000
men and women from the county
now in military service. He has
suggested that many of the COM
munities arrange Independence
Day celebrations in honor Of these
service people and that a roll of
military personnel be called in each
community with the responses
being made by a parent, brother,
sister or other relative, Mr..
Welsh states that this program
would tend to bring home to the
people Of every community the
large number Of young people who
have left to serve their country
and would serve as a pointed re-
minder to buy war bonds. A num-
Der of communities have already
started plans to produce such pro-
grams. The people Of Takoma
Park. in connection with their an
nual Fourth of July celebration,
will dedicate the towns honor roll
on Carroll avenue, which carries
the names of more than 1900 serv-
ice people.
Other county activities which
will unfold as the drive progresses
will be farm auction at Laytons-
vile with the date to be announced
later, band program and bond
rally at Damascus June 15 at 7.30
p. NJ, school bond rally at Cal
thersburg the evening Of June 16.
Other communities are arranging
to hold Victory breakfasts on
designated dates from 8 to IL A.
NJ, where the price Of admission
will be the purchase Of bond, in
addition to the cost Of the break
fast. King Mularkey Of Bethesda
and Edward c. Holmead have been
appointed to arrange a series Of
golf matches in various parts Of

Dog Vaccination
Clinics Will Be
Held To June 10
Animals Treated Will Be
Allowed To Run Loose In
Thirty Days

: Yaps, howls and growls are
being heard throughout the county
as Mrs. Browns registered pup
swears at the Johnsons mutt, in
dog language, as they await their
turn at the clinics for innoculation
against rabies. The dogs ara arriv-
ing at the clinics being neld at
various points in the county, afoot,
in their owners arms, in car or
truck, painting and wondering.
According to Jane D. King,
president of the Montgomery
County Farm Bureau, which in
augurated the program to fight
the rabies epidemic, not any of the
several hundred dogs vaccinated in
the first days of this week showed
any i'll effects for the innocula-
ton, which is not compulsory. In
noculated dogs may be allowed to
run loose after 80 days, while un-
vaccinated dogs must be kept in
quarantine at least 80 days. The
clinics will run through June 10.
All dog owners have been sent let
ters notifying them of the time
and locations of the clinics.
Owners are cautioned that vac
cination against rabies is only a
first stop in the protection of their
pets. Immunity is not established
Immediately upon vaccination, the
Montgomery County Health De-
partment points out. Dogs must,
therefore, be kept in strict quar-
antine for at least 80 days after
vaccination. =
For each dog vaccinated the
owner will be given tag to be
hung from the dogs collar. Per-
sons who have had their dogs vac
cinated by private veterinarians
since January /, 1914, may bring
their certificates to the vaccination
places and secure tags without
having their dogs revaccinated.
Those befriending stray dogs
should either take full responsible
ity or releas them to the dog
catchers for humane disposal.
In connection with the recent
Ounce Orchard rabies case, unfor-
tunately the statement was made
that no dog catchers were avail
able in the upper part of the coun-
ty. Dog catchers have been avail
able in all quarantined sections.
Now that the quarantine is being
extended to the entire county, they
will be available in all parts Of it.
The rabies clinic schedules have
been published. The place nearest
you and the time may still be
learned by calling the Police De-
partment or the Health Depart
ment. Schedules are being repeated
for two weeks, ending June 10.
