SEAL CAMPAIGN OF
| RED CROSS ON DEC. -1
| Vigorous Drive Planned For
Fight Against The White
Plague
-
.QUOTA FOR STATE $125,0GQ
A vigorous campaign against tuber
culosis will begin in Maryland on
December 1. On that date, the Red
Cross Christmas seals for 1919 will •
he placed on sale throughout the state.:
The seal* will finance the great, na
tion-wide tight against tuberculosis,
which is to be waged by tlie National
Tuberculosis Association .and its 1,000
afhliated organizations.
Owing to a critical condition in the
tight against tuberculosis, a much in- 1
creased budget is being asked all!
over the country. The nation as a
whole must raise $6,500,000 during
the coming year. The Red Cross I
Christmas seals are practically the i
only source of revenue for this work.
Maryland’s quota of this budget is
$125,000.
j The preliminary organization of
Baltimore city and the counties is
well under way, and when the cam
paign officially opens on December 1
it is hoped to have the seals on sale
in places convenient, to ever one in
Maryland. If the state is to make
good its quota every man, woman and
j child must buy at least 10 cents’,
worth of the little penny stamps.
Every seal is a penny's worth of cure
and prevention.
The active head of the Maryland
Tuberculosis Association, which’will
carry on the seal campaign and wage
the fight against tuberculosis in Bal
timore anti the state, Is A. E. Sinks,
who recently w'ent to Baltimore. Mr.
Sinks formerly was with the Potomac
Division of the American Red Cross in j
Washington.

IE BISHOP, OF El
‘Tt —~
Recently Returned Army Chap
lain Preached At St. Anne’s
RT. REV. ROGERS ISRAEL
I
J Before a large and representative
L congregation yesterday morning in St.
Anne’s Chtirch, the Rev. Edward I).
Johnson, I). D.. rector, the sermon was
preached ty tha Rt. Rev. Rogers Is
rael. Bishop of Erie. Pe-in. It was
not known the Bishop would preach
and his presence came as a surprise
to the congregation. The serifton
came as a titling climax to Armistice
Day, celebrated duriug the previous
week, and was an earnes*. forceful
discourse, carrying with it numerous
I practical lessons.
The Bishop took for his text:
i“Blessed are the eyes that see the
; things that ye see.” He said >ve are
wont to paint with glory the scenes
land incidents that happened during
Christ’s life. Had we Icon present
|we would have seen only the car
penter, a plain teacher, teaching plain
truths.
j Christ and llis followers wvuld
have liked to see the tilings that we
'see, said the Bishop and he explained
by relating many touching incidents
of the war, during his service at army
hospitals in France.
As the French and Belgium soldiers
| died fur their native land, said the
Bishop, lAmerieans died for humanity, j
land he painted the American soldier
!at a second Christ giving his life *for
his fellow man.
Returning soldiers ask “What is the
i matter with the American people;
| they don’t seem to care?" A similar
state of affairs existed after Christ’s
! crucifixion.
The Bishop brought out in his ser-;
mon the fact that with the American,
i soldiers there was every evident * of
! the “Brotherhood of Man,” and con
, tidenre. faith and trust in the “Fath
erhood of-God.”

of manslaughter in the Circuit Four,
this afternoon, and was sentenced to
a term of two years in the Maryland

The case was of a rather unusual
order, owing to the fact that there
were-no witnesses to the tragedy, It
developed there were not witnesses to
the affair, so that many of the wit
nesses exatuied both on the part of
the State and the defense, gave testi
mony as to the character of the two
j men.
The accused man told a straight
forward story of tlio fatal affray. lie
! said among other things that in* had
i gone out on the afternoon of the
dates stated above, wiili his shot gun
and two dogs, to give the latter a
run; that he was accosted by Thomas
; who engaged him in an argument (hir
ing whiyh lie ridiculed the value of
the dogs belonging to Lee. Thomas,
