COUNTY WOMEN PLAN EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN Davidsonville Club Starts Move ment For Training Of Heed less Automobile Trippers SCENERY BEING SPOILED At a recent meeting of the Women's f lub of Davidsonville, an organiza tion which has since its inception been characterized by push and go, a member brought up the subject of! starting a campaign of education for Sunday visitors to the country. The Sunday automobile trippers come in their thousands from Balti morc, Washington and other towns, and enpoy the rest and change of a day in the country. Naturally they select the prettiest spots on the banks of the rivers and shores of Chesa peake Buy to stop the car and spread the nicnic lunch. They have a perfect time and re turn to the city in the evening re freshed from their outing, and nine times out of ten they ieuve the place whore they spent the day. and which they chose on account of its natural loveliness, marred and disfigured in some way. They may have the grace to pick up the scraps of food and emp ty tin cans and sardine boxes, but what about the paper wrappings and the Sunday papers which they brought with them to read? In very few in stances, save when there happen to be experienced campers in the party, is there a systematic inspection of the location immediately before leaving and a deliberate cleaning up of all debris, as there should be. In many cases this is the result of ignorance. City dwellers do not rea lize that stray bits of paper, a cigar butt or peach stone, that are not con cpicuous eyesores on a street, will rob a sylvan nook of all its beauty, while a bit of orange peel on a mountain snow slope will wreck the scenery foe miles around. But now that prac tically every one owns some sort of electrically propelled machine, and (Continued On Puge 4.) DAYLIGHT-SAVING ENDS AT 2 A. M. NEXT SUNDAY “Farewell, Daylight-Saving.” will 1 be chirped by Annapolitans early next Sunday morning, for at 2 a. m. on August 27 the clocks of the city will be turned back cnc hour—tnat Is. to the old-time standard. Return to “normalcy” in the way of ' clock-settin’, gettin’ up and goin* to bed hours, will be welcomed by many persons, while at the same time there will be others who probably would like to stretch out the closing time for daylight-saving until the chill winds of winter start their Arc tic assault. However, the city ordinance relat ing to and providing for the daylight saving schedule automatically ex pires next Sunday at the aforemen tioned hour, so it behooves everyone to be “on the mark” and “ready” for the clock-tinkering” process. It must be borne in mind that if one forgets to turn the hands of the clock back ward an hour next Saturday night, one will by such forgetfulness be de prived of sixty minutes of sleep. Moreover, such lapse of memory may cause many other little inconveni ences in the daily routine that might easily be avoided by remembering to—- Move the hands of the clock back an hour at 2 a m. next Sunday.

FINANCES BEFORE ~ COUNCIL TONIGHT Bond Issue Void, Commission To Report On Means To Get Money To consider the question of secur ing necessary funds to proceed with the street and municipal improve ments, now that the lxtml issue of $72,000 was held to be void, the Mayor and City Council will meet in spe cial session In the municipal build ing tonight. The matter will be brought before the City Fathers through a report by the Finance Com mission of the Council to which it was referred for inquiry.^ Bidder Rejects Bonds It developed formally that the bond sale was void at a meeting of the Council held a week ago, when Major Joseph A. W. Iglehart, of Baltimore, who had purchased the issue at a gratifying figure, notified the Council that he would be compelled to reject them because the special election, when the bond issue was put up to the voters, was not held in the time stipulated In the act of the last Legis lature, which act also authorized the loan. Meanwhile, a tentative offer was made by a representative of the Annapolis Banking and Trust Com pany to help the city out in the emer gency by a loan at somewhat better advantage to the city than would have been the case at five and a half per cent. Interest on the bonds. It was suggested in course of the last Coun cil meeting that the other local bank ing institutions might pursue a like course. Hence the question was re ferred to the Finance Commission, and it is understood that the commis sion has made satisfactory arrange ments to tide over the resultant situ ation.

The ceremonies were held in the Metho dist Episcopal Church there, and an address was delivered by Rev. Thomas E. Jones, pastor of Nicholas Memor ial Church, at Odenton, who has been an active worker in the organization. The Friendship Church was crowded, many persons bging compelled to stand outside.

Verdict Of Two Physicians Who Viewed Body DISCOVERY MADE BY AGENT OF S. P. C. /. J. Roland Brady, for a number of years police justice of Annapolis, was found dead in his office in the Court House here this morning. Death was pronounced due to apoplexy by I)r. William S. Welch, who, with Dr. James J. Murphy, viewed the body soon after its discovery. An inquest was deemed unnecessary and the body was taken charge of by Funeral Director B. L. Hopping to be prepared for burial. Found By S. P. C. A. Agent Discovery of the body was made by George C. Blaisdcll, Annapolis agent for the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, who had gone to Mr. Brady’s office at 9:30 o'clock on a matter of business. Mr. Blaisdell opened the door and was somewhat astounded at the sight that confronted him. Mr. Brady’s body was hanging over the arm of his chair at his desk, the head being near the floor. Think ing possibly that Mr. Brady had fallen asleep, he raised the body to the chair. Then, thinking that the magis trate was 111, or possibly dead, he notified officials about the Court House. Meanwhile, officials were summoned and gave the verdict of death from the cause as above stated. The physicians estimated that Mr. Brady had been dead about two hours. The body was still warm. One Of Large Family Mr. Brady was Cl years old. and was a native of Annapolis, the son of the late John W., and Annie M. Brady. Surviving him are two daughters, Mrs. Harry Laroy Volk, of New York City, and Mrs. Henry Chadeayne. of Cornwall-on-the-Hudson, Now York, and the following brothers and sis ters: Miss Elizabeth Brady, C. Ashby Brady, W. Martin Brady, State Sen ator A. Theodore Brady, and Walter L. Brady, all of Annapolis; Mrs. Wal ter L. Wilson, Province Lake, N. H.; Mrs. Bruce Gibson, California, and Joseph Brady, of Baltimore.

It is not believed there will be any more candidates to enter the field for Congress. As to convention dele gates, it is not unlikely that these will hold off until late in the day. Clinton Shaw, clerk to the Elec tion Board, will be at his office until midnight to receive any papers to be filed. , FOOTBALL WILL GET PRELIMINARY START AT ACADEMY TODAY The first shot incident to the foot ball season at the Naval Academy was fired Saturday night when “Bob” Fol well, head coach of the gridders de livered an address before the middies of the new fourth class. Moving pic tures of the Army-Navy football game of last season which was won by the midshipmen, were shown the “Plehes.”’ This afternoon, members of the class who intend trying for places on the team or squad will have their first practice under the direction of Folwell. The work, of course, will be entirely of an elementary order. The cool temperature of today snaps much of football weather, and is cal culated to make the “plebes” put a good deal of “pep” in their first start. MA>, WOMAN AND TWO BOYS DIE IN FIRE, THOUGHT INCENDIARY (By Th*> Associated I>M.) ELIZABETH, N. J., Au. 21. Four persons wore burned to death today in a fire in a tenant house which the police believe was of incendiary origin. The dead, a man, a woman, and two boys, were burned beyond recog nition.

PRESIDENT URGES ciinii Not For Prospective Warfare But Preserving Peace, He Says In Address (By The Aniuciattd Pm*.) WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 21 President Harding in an address here today to citizen-soldiers from Camp Meade, Md., declared he favored mili tary training "for more than 100,000” civilians annually, not for any pros pective aggressive warfare, but to pre serve peace. After reviewing the civilian troops on the Ellipse, adjacent to the White House grounds, the President called attention to the fact that 28,000 civ ilians were afforded training this summer compared with 11,000 last year. The President said the review had given him new confidence, but added that there was, not a thought in America for arms warfare, the na tion being concerned only in preserv ing the peace of the world. In the Camp Meade contingent were 1,000 young men constituting infantry, medical, artillery and cavalry units from the District of Columbia, Mary land, Delaware and Pensylvania who have been in training for three weeks. Declaring that the boys had been benefitted by learning discipline, the President asserted that "all America might well benefit by learning a lit tle more impressively the obligations of the citizen to hi 3 country.” Seek Two Men And Women In Norris Murder (By The Atitoriiiled I’resH.) BALTIMORE, MD., Aug. 21.—From publicity on every step of the efforts to capture the bandits who last Fri day murdered Walter B. Norris in a day hold-up of the Hicks, Teas and Norris payroll at Park avenue and Madison street, the police today turn ed to a policy of secretedness on their program. About the only information obtain able was the fact that two men and a woman now are sought as witnesses or as suspects. Detectives who arrested the two Baltimore women (Marie Kistling and Edna Dorsth) at Norfolk yesterday are searching for a third, whom they described as a most important wit ness in the case they are striving to build up around suspects in the mur der. The two women are said by the police to be intimrte friends of Benny Lewis and "Wiggles” Smith, two of the men under arres# in connection with the case. “PLEBOmiN IN VAUDEVILLE ACTS "The best show yet” was the verdict pronounced unanimously on Friday night by the audience that laughed steadily for an hour at the entertain ment given by the "Plebe” Third Bat talion, commanded by Lieut.-Com mander W\ N. Richardson, Jr., in the Auditorium of the Naval Academy. For sheer pep and enterprise, the present fourth class excels any that have been seen for some time, and its battalion shows, got up with so little preparation that they almost deserve to be called impromptu, have fur nished no little fun and entertainment to the dull season. Although smaller than the combined Musical Clubs’ or chestra, the one that played at the Friday night show was quite as good for its size, which is saying a good deal for the Musical Clubs’ perform ance was generally conceded to be the best amateur entertainment given last year. The Fourth Battalion will have Its 6how next Wednesday night. : NAVY PLEBES DEFEATED j ON FELD AND TRACK Strong Team Of P. A. L.. Balti-j more.
