(Continued From Page One)
Mayor John J. Levy, of Annapolis;
Captain W. T. Cliiverius, U. S. N., com
mandant of midshipmen at the Naval
Academy, and Major John Marston,
who commands the local marine gar
rison. Captain C.luverius and Major
Marston expressed their approval of
i the work done by this organization, of
j the place It filled in the lives of the
'service men. and their deep apprecia
tion of the spirit and work of those re
sponsible for the building and Its fa
cilities.
Rev. H. J. Monohan. of Baltimore,
; State chaplain of the Knights of Co
lumbus, delivered the address of the
afternoon, and dedicated the building.
Father Monohan emphasized the point
that the building was for the service
j men of all faiths and continents, and
! said that this was simply in the spirit
|of the Catholic church, which in its ef
forts to serve and uplift, made no dis
tinction among those who needed it.
| Father Monohan s|M>ke of the condi
tions undeT which America entered
I the war, doing so. he said, when it be
came clear that it must tight for the
i cause of humanity and civilization.
I He spoke of the spirit of the Knights
|of Columbus on the other side and the
service it had performed in keeping
the spirits of the men high and strong,
and said that there is an unending
tight against the spirit of bigotry.
He took occasion to emphasize that
neither the order nor the Catholic
church undertook to influence its mem
bers in their political acts, but said
that the only stand It took, and that
good churchmen and good citizens
should take, was that of applying the
test of fitness to candidates for public
office, whether they be Jew or Gentile,
Catholic or Protestant.
Father John Toohey, rector of St.
Mary's Church, this city, followed
Father Monohan. He spoke particular
ly of the necessity on the part of serv
ice men, as for all others, of periods of
relaxation and opportunities for re
creation under reasonable and whole
some conditions. He said that the
Knights of Columbus had taken up this
work to till this real need in the lives
of the service men.;
The last speaker was Mrs. Jennie
V. Green, of Baltimore, State regent of
the Daughters of Isabella, who assured
those present that the Daughters
would always stand with the Knights
and co-operate with them in the work
they were doing.

STORY OF ACHIEVEMENT
(From the Democratic State Platform, adopted by the
Convention that nominated Albert C. Ritchie for Gov
ernor, E. Brooke Lee for Comptroller of the Treasury,
Thomas J. Keating for Attorney General, and Caleb C.
Magruder for Clerk of the Court of Appeals.)
<4 Wc remind the people of the State of the redemption
by the Democratic party, under the administration of
Governor Harrington, of the pledges made by us in the
platform of 1915.
The budget amendment lias been adopted. Continuing
appropriations have been abolished, and legislative* ex
penses greatly reduced.
Useless offices have* been eliminated, the membership
of the State Roads Commission reduced, and the Conser
vation Commission lias been formed.
Tin* State Law Department, under the Attorney-Gen
eral, has been created, and special counsel to the State
boards and commissions abolished.
A uniform system of accounting lias been inaugurated.
The ‘envelope system’ lias been abolished, and a
special registration day before primary elections pro
vided in the counties.
The Home Rule Law lias been passed.
The system of good roads has been maintained and en
larged.
The agricultural resources of the State have been de
veloped and the State College of Agriculture reorganized.
The public school system lias been improved.
A State Board of Prison Control lias been created and
the way cleared for the abolishment of contract labor.
In order to meet the war emergency and to enable
Maryland to do its whole duty in keeping with its tradi
tions, Governor Harrington convened the General As
sembly in special session in. June, 1917. The work al
ready begun by the Maryland Preparedness and Survey
Commission appointed by him enabled the General As
sembly to provide the needed legislation without delay.
A complete program of legislation drafted by the Attor
ney General was presented on the day the Legislature
met.
Among the bills were those providing for a million-dol
lar war loan, the Maryland Council of Defense, a State
farm for prison labor, the Maryland .State Guard, sus
pending judgments, legal proceedings and statutes of
limitation in behalf of soldiers and sailors absent in
service, amending the militia laws, providing that sol
diers and sailors should not be stricken from the registra
tion books and authorizing successive legal holidays.
There were also other measures designed to conserve
health and property, and the Compulsory Work law, the
first of its kind in the country, which was copied by other
States and received nation-wide approval.
The Absent Soldiers and Sailors’ Vote law was passed.
The prompt and effective steps taken by Maryland
proved of invaluable assistance in helping to mobilize the *
resources of the country for war purposes.
But the constructive legislation enacted during the
present administration did not end with the redemption
of the party pledges arid the provisions for the war emer
gencies.
Important reforms have been effected in the bank and
insurance laws.
The Motor Vehicle laws have been amended.
Measures aiding the conservation of fish, oysters and
crabs have been enacted.
Child labor legislation has also been passed.
The State Armory Commission and the State Board of
Motion-Picture Censors have been created.
Steps have been taken to bring the Eastern and West
ern Shores into closer relations than ever before by the
establishment of ferries across the Chesapeake Bay.
The financial affairs of the State have been managed
with exceptional ability, the accounting system im
proved and simplified, and the Comptroller’s office main
tained upon a thoroughly business basis under Mr. Mc-
Mullen.
We have done far more than redeem the promises made
by us to the people of Maryland.”

LITERARY CIRCLE OF
ST. MARY’S CHURCH
GIVE ENTERTAINMENT
rapt, Wleirard Gives Interesting Ad
dress On Loordes France, With
Pictures Exhibited
-
St. Mary’s Literary Circle gave . a j
very pleasing program at its social, i
meeting Friday night last. This was
the second meeting held by the circle, j
and all members felt greatly encour
aged at the large number present.
The program opened wdth a musical j
selection by Miss Caroline Lutz, which
she rendered most beautifully. The
“Question Box.’’ by Rev. Father Too
hey, rector of St. Mary’s, under whose
supervision the Literary Society is
conducted, was most interesting and
profitable.
Miss Josephine Riordan. gave in her ;
delightful style, with deep feeling and
j the best interpretation of the subject
! matter, a reading, entitled “Cardinal
I Mercier.” ~
The feature of the efening's program
was an address on the subject, “My
Visit to Lourdes,” hv Capt. Bernard .1
Wiegard, who recently returned from
France where he served for eleven
months with the American Expedition
ary Forces.
Capt. Wiegard exhibited the picture
of I/ourdes and the surrounding coun
try, which served to make the address
'the more interest.ng.
Capt. Wiegard told of the cathedral i
there, three churches having been
built one after the other on the same j
site. Great miracles and wonderful
cures have been wrought at a shrine
there. His address was interspersed
a’ various points with appropriate
music, and popular patriotic songs
were given throughout the evening's
program which was most entertaining
and profitable.
