Old*Fashioned Sabbath is Now in Danger. Declares Editor of Snow Hill Messenger. Echoes of the auto campaigns Dr. Howard A. Kelly and Dr. \V. W. Da- J, vis. of the lord's Day Alliance, have been making through the counties on Sundays and stirring up the country people as to the Sunday recreation movement in Baltimore are beginning to reach the city through the columns of the county newspapers. In the rural communities, with their peculiar conditions.the "old-fashioned .Sunday” is regarded with the greatest veneration, and the Lord's Day Al liance speakers have convinced these that dire danger threatens. For instance, down in Worcester county, the Snow Hill Messenger, pub lished in Senator John Walter Smith’s town, under the caption “Protect the Sabbath Day." •*ays “We were surprised to read in the Baltimore papers that some ministers of the Gospel and some Sunday-school teachers were in favor ofSundaj base ball for Baltimore. If this thing ‘goes' in Baltimore, it will wind up in the counties, anil we will have in the end a Continental Sabbath.with Sunday no more than any other day. When the people who profess to follow the teachings of Christ hold ideas they vhculd be kicked out of the ministry and put out of the Sun day-school. Those who want the youth of our country to violate the commands of God to ‘Remember the Sabath Day- that the desire for play he gratified, ought ft) remember that it is greed for money that prevents such enjoyment. “The solution of the problem*is a Friday pay-day in Maryland and a Saturday half-holiday the Friday pay-day to enable them to take their wages and make prepaiations for the holiday, so the whole family can have Saturday afterm*on off “We notice that the men foremost in the movement for tlie violation of the Sabath day have foreign names, and no doubt, they believe in a liberty that will break down the commands of the Holy Book, cast our true Ameri ■ lean ideals to the winds,to be followed by a social condition that will prove the greatest burden the working man has ever had to cary. “Sunday baseball will be followed i I y other gamer; other games by other work; other work by all work, and then the working man will get seven days’ work, no rest day and six days pay for seven days* work, i “Give the people a Saturday half holiday for their enjoyment and health and let them keep the Sabbath day as God has commanded.”—Balti- I more News, June 14.

(Communicated.) Mr. Editor: At South river stands a beautiful old colonial home. Yes, “beautiful.” for the keeper and his family. But oh. the poor old man in the end “cell" on the right in the basement,bent with rheumatism, infirm with age, and in a room so damp water stands on he walls Why cannot these old men have a room upstairs'’ Let them have the best the county provides,not the keep er and his family. Give the inmates the comforts which that home pro vides. Cross the heautiiful grounds; see the poor colored folks in their ‘home.’’ The flies are eating them. Not a screen. Belle Chase and an other woman sleep in one small single bed on the left of the corridor. See the poor old blind man that puts two of the colored women to bed at night!. .Last, hut not least, go in the next room, (they call it the hospital), and see the dear old white woman. 1 am sure she is a lady. She has a clean feather bed under her, but the spring on the bed touches the floor. Her husband attends her. He, in his turn, declares that if things do not get better,he is going to leave the “Home” and let the county take charge of her. That’s a man’s way of looking at things—run from it—(some of them.) New beds have been promised, but are late in coming. Can’t some of the people of Anne Arundel county give this old woman a spring for her bed 9 Will not the people see to having the place screened for the poor souls? (Signed) MRS. JOHN PARKINSON, June 19, 'ls. Eastport, Md. WOULD VIGOROUSLY^PROTEST. Against School System—Average Child Should Get Through Grade Each Year. (Communicated.) June 19, 1915. The Evening Capita), Mr. Editor: Can you tell me the percentage of scholars that failed this year in ojr public school. (Grammar). I have heard it was, as forty per cent. Is this solf this is so, then, I desire to protest most vigor ously against our system which retains an incompetent staff of teachers. 1 have two children attending school. Both the average normal child. Both failed, one of them for the second time. This means that when the next school year begins, be will for the third time enter the same grade. It is difficult for me to believe that, with average teaching, any average boy could not get through a grade in two years. Very truly yours, J. S. DANIELS. o Marriage License Issued.
