LADY JELLICOE’S ILLNESS
HALTS VISCOUNT’S VISIT
Because of the illness of Lady Jel
licoe in Ottawa. Viscount and Lady
■ Jelicoe have delayed their departure
for the United States.
Admiral Sims received the follow
ing telegram from Admiral Jelliooe
veserday afternoon:—“lt is with
much regret that I cannot visit you
tomorrow. Lady Jelicoe is ill of
tonsilitis and the doctors have for
bidden her to travel.**
The program for the entertainment
in Washington of Viscount Jellicoe
and his staff includes a dinner at the
British Embassy on Sunday night. On
Monday he will pay formal calls on
Vice President Marshall, Secretary of
State and Secretary of the
Navy Daniels. he will visit the
Navy Yard.
-During the afternoon Viscount Jel
licoe will visit the Library of Con
gress and the Senate and House gal
leries. At five o'clock he will attend
a tea at the home of Assistant Sec
i retary of the Navy Roosevelt, and
that night he will dine with the Sec
retary of the Navy and Mrs. Daniels, j
after which he will hold a reception |
at the residence of the Secretary. On
Tuesday he will visit the Naval Acad-1
emy.
In The Kitchen
j If a piece of lemon Is added to a j
pan of cold water and the wilted j
vegetables allowed to stand in the
water for an hour or so, they will be
as fresh as when gathered. Espe
cially good for lettuce, celery, spin
ach and parsley.
Cold coffee is excellent for ferns i
of all kinds. Use about once a month ]
To boil eggs that are cracked wrap
in a piece of white muslin and there
will he no danger of oozing out in
the water.
By adding Salt to gasolene, spots
may be removed from clothing of the
{most delicate fabrics without leaving
a ring around the edges cleaned.
The common nutcracker makes a
splendid little household wrench for
caps and bottles with screw tops.
Even the stubborn glass stopper will
yield to the gentle pressure of this
convenient little article.
Use a gravy boat in tilling jars with
preserves. It is easily (lipped into
the hot kettle of fruit by means of
the handle, and the long mouth fits
into jars of any size and thus pre
vents spilling.
To pack a bottle of liquid for trav
eling. roll it in corrugated paper that
■comes around “breakables" from the
store.
To wind a skein of wool place two
old-fashioned flatirons on a table a
sufficient distance apart to allow the
wool to be tightly stretched. This
will answer 4s well as to have any
one hold if.
In the kitchen, hanging up. keep a
pair of scissors to cut up raisins,
citron, suet, &c. They are easier to
clean than the chopper and very
handy for lots of things.
Fashion’s Fads
Even street sleeves are sometimes
three inches above the elbow.
The chemise dresses are prettiest
with narrow strap belts or heavy silk
cords.
The new brown velveteen jacket
{dresses have vests of Pompeiian red
du vet yn.
Sometimes the short sleeves are
j cut in kimono blouses, and are then
rather large in circumference, simply
1 chopped off a few inches below the
shoulders. These tire often finished
with a little rolled-back cuff.
Some of the new French frocks
show trousered skirts, actually skirts
jin trousers form, hut for the Amer
ican woman these are modified, and
j similar etTod- is produced by a narrow
I skirt.
There is a*chance that the smaller
' waist is 'coining back into fashion —
in a modified, modern form, probably.
The inspiration that the dressmakers
how go: from the clothes of the late
eighteenth century would naturally:
lead to this development.
The pessimist who is always look
ing for something to rail at can find
it by looking in a mirror.

THE EVENING CAPITAL AND MARYLAND GAZETTE, ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND. THURSDAY. JANUARY 1.
ENLARGED SOCIAL
SERVICE PROGRAM
ADOPTED BYT
Plans to Increase Membership
to One Million.
Will A**lst In General Movements for
Americanization and Improved
Relations Between Capita!
and Labor.
TAKING th*dr stand! squarely with
the churches of America for so
cial Justice, based upon the
teachings of Christ, the Youmt Men’s
Christian Associations of North Amer
ica, at their fortieth international con
vention held recently In Detroit, also
adopted the most comprehensive pro
gram of expanding social service ever
presented to the associations In their
three-quarters of a century of exist
ence.
The social creed previously adopted
by the Federal Council of the Churches
: of Christ In America and Indorsed
later by the Interchurch World Move
ment was adopted by the “Y" conven
tion without the N alteratlon of a sylla
ble. It definitely commits the asso
ciations to many specific social re
forms, such ns the improvement of the
‘relations between capital and labor,
the enactment of uniform divorce laws,
better housing conditions and the like
It also was definitely resolved, “that
j the future great developments which are
i being planned shall be worked out lo
cally and nationally In positive harmony
i and co-operation with the evangelical
churches." One of the reports which
was adopted put the matter of the rela
tion of the Y. M C. A. to the churches
In this form: "The association is Indis
pensable to the churches and the church
es are the association's base of opera
tions. The vital union betweefy the two
should be made so evident that no one
could misunderstand It.”
The enlarging plans of the associations
rail for the gradual extension of its work
to reach every young man and boy In
America. Steps are tc be taken Imme
diately to Increase the membership In
the associations from 739,000 to 1,000.000
by 1920, but this is only a small part of
the program.
In small cities and large. In Industrial
centers. In mining camps, in rural com
munities. In villages. In oil fields. In set
tlements of colored people, in colleges,
schools and universities, at railroad ter
minals and division points, the Y. M.
C. A. Is planning to bring Its influence
to bear upon the boyhood and young
manhood.
The Industrial work of the association
will he developed largely along community
lines. The convention favored the adop
tion of the so sailed “hut idea.” That
Is, the use of buildings of not so formal
a type as those erected by the Y. M. C.
A before the war, but more like the
army and navy huts, as a ready means
for extending association service to
groups of men and boys otherwise not
reached by the association.
Community-wide recreation is to be
promoted, not only for its physical bene
fits, but as a developer of national
morale, and the value of mass athletics
and mass singing was recognized and
will have a large place In the future
association activities. ,
The program for the more complete
Americanization of the foreign speaking
peoples who find a refuge In America Is
not to be ltrnited to the teaching of Kng
l.sh and a smattering of civics, but will
include an effort to Inculcate the highest
American ideals.
The experimental home room service
of women in city associations is to be
extended, the value of women In the Y.
M. C. A. uniform In Europe having sug
gested to some of the association leaders
the possibility of their use in softening
the institutional character of the ordi
nary Y. M. C. A. building and bringing
to its lobby a feminine touch suggestive
of home and mother.
The Railroad Y. M. C. A. will be ex
tended to many towns where no rail
road association has as yet been estab
lished, and the Railroad Department also
will undertake to provide service similar
to that of the Railroad Y. M. C. A. to the
thousands of young men who have re
cently entered Into the service of the
Merchant Marine.
NATIONAL THRIFT WEEK
OF “Y” BEGINS JANUARY 17
Beniamin Franklin. the original expo
nent of frugality and thrift among the
American people back In Revolutionary
times, were he alive today, would be
quite as much shocked by the Cost ot
High Living as by the much maligned
H. C. of L. He was one of the first to
preach the doctrine, “Think straight
about money matters." which the Y. M.
]C. A has adopted as its creed for its
National Thrift Week which will open.
In all parts of the country, on Jan. 17.
Franklin’s birthday, and extend through
the 24th.
The campaign Is being conducted, with
the co-operation of some of the most
Influential business men In the Cnlted
States, for the purpose of educating the
: people of every city, town and hamlet
! in the country In the way of thrift and
| Judicious spending. Thus it Is hoped to
conserve the great benefits of the nation
wide campaign on saving and waste
elimination promoted by the government
as a war measure.
In the opinion of such men as Frank
A. Vanderlip, Henry P. Davison and Her
bert Hoover, the economic salvation of
all Europe, In which America Is so vital
ly Interested from a financial standpoint.
Is dependent upon the ability of America
to furnish credit*, which In turn can
only be furnished to the extent that the
American people save. But. It Is pointed
out. there is behind the campaign the
deeper motive that individual saving
means, not only the prosperity of the
I’nited States and of the world a* large,
but also works for the common Interests
of all the people.
The program for National Thrift Week
Is based upon the following topne:
Spend leas than you earn, make a
budget, keep a record of expenditures,
have a bank account, carry life insurance,
make a will, own your own home, pay
your bills promptly, invest In government
securities and share with others.
On every day of the week some special
phase of this program will be empha
sised. The campaign will open with
Bank Day, when an attempt will be
made to emphasize the service the bank
renders to the community, and show the
importance of making sound investments.
Of equal Interest Is "Own Your Own
Home Day,” for it is believed that es
tablishing a home is not only one of the
surest ways to save, but also sej-ves as
a most potent mean* of allaying Indus
trial unrest.
Happy w Year
It requires a keen sense of humor
for a man to laugh jn his sleeve when
jhe knocks his funny bone.
WORLD’S BIGGEST
NITRATE PLANT
Mammoth Explosives Factory
in Alabama Built in
Eight Months.
■ 11 -
ALL SPEED RECORDS BROKEN
Could Supply 13 Per Cent of
Allies' Needs Had War
Continued.
By GARRET SMITH.
Lifting the ban of war secrecy has
! Just now brought to light for the first
time one of the most stupendous feats
o' construction in history—the plan
ning and building in less than one year
of the largest ammonium nitrate plant
In the world nnd of a city around it
1 for the housing of Its 25.000 workmen
and their families. At the same time
is revealed one of the chief reasons
why Germany suddenly surrendered a
j year ago. The German high command
knew that the United States was
ready at Muscle Shoals, Alabama, to
manufacture 13 per cent of nil the
i high explosives needed by all the Al
! lied armies on all fronts in the expect
i ed drive of the following spring.
The first person on construction
i Aork reached Muscle Shoals on No
vember 26, 1917. On February 16,
1918, ground was first broken for a
; permanent plant building. On Octo
ber 26, 191 S, eight months nnd eight
I days later, the manufacturing plant
: had begun the production of ammo
i nium nitrute.
When America entered the world
war In April, 1917, she had no means
of producing the enormous quantities
of high explosives necessary to pro
vide the huge army she planned to
raise. The very fact that our indus
tries were already worked to capacity
providing ammunition to the allies
seemed to make further production for
our own use impossible.
Fertilizer Process Turned to War Use
! At this juncture the Ordnance Do
| partment turned to cyanamid. a com
mercial fertilizer, which had for some
years been produced successfully at
Niagara Falls, by a process the Ameri
can rights of which were obtained in
1907 from Germany by Frank Sher
man Washburn, bead of the American
Cyanamid Company.
Bv this process cyanamid was pro
duced by extracting nitrogen from the
air and combining It with calcium ob
tained from limestone rock and carbon
from coke. By putting cyanamid
through three more processes both am
; monia nnd nitric acid can he extracted
] from it and combined Into the explo
sive, ammonium nitrate. Mr. Wash
burn was Invited to present plans and
j estimates for the construction in the
1 shortest possible time of an ammonium
] nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals, Ala
bama, nnd a contract between his com
l pnny and the United States was enter-
I ed Into under date of November 16,
1917.
To have general supervision of plan
ning nnd carrying out the work an or
ganization known n the Air Nitrates
■ Corporation was formed to act as
agpnt of the Ordnance Department.
! This corporation provided the general
designs, supervised all the work and
] operated the camp, the town nnd the
plant. It also installed all equipment
In the chemical plant The various
other sections of the work were sub
let to organizations that were special
ists In the directions in which they
were asked to help.
New City Built From the Ground.
It was necessary to build a new
town to house the laborers. For this
Job Westinghouse Churdi Kerr Com
pany was called in ns contractor. This
company also built the buildings of the
! chemical plant. Within four months
12.000 workmen had been assembled
and a city capable of accommodating
25,000 Inhabitants had been completed,
with lodging, restaurants, stores, of
fices, police headquarters, schools, fire
departments, hospitals, motion picture
theaters, electric light and sewerage
systems.
The construction of the plant proper
was begun on February 16. 1918. Just
eight months and eight days later the
big plant hegan a steady output of am
monium nitrate. The plant contains
113 permanent buildings, with a roof
I area of over 26 acres.
I To provide the electric current It
was necessary to build a steam power
electric plant, for It would have taken
three years or more to complete the
dam and hydro-electrtc station now un
der way. This plant, built by the J. G.
White Corporation, is one of the larg
est steam plants for developing elec
trical energy in the world.
Tlu ompnt of the plant Is 300 tons of
ammonium nitrate a day, and this can
j be produced at Muscle Shoals at a cost
less iban one-half the standard fixed
price paid by the Government for am
monium nitrate produced by other
methods and one-fourth to one-fifth the
cost of other high explosives of equal
strength. Compared with the older
process of making ammonium nitrate,
the savings made by this plant would
have paid the $60,000,000 cost of the
entire plant In about one and one-half
years of ojteration.
As a militate weapon It Is one of the
wisest and most economical expendi
tures that the Ordnance Department
has undertaken. As an agent in stop
ping the war and as a future protec
tion to the country its value la incalcu
lable.

SHADY SIDE
r 11
Richard Kirchner, better known to,
his friends as “Uncle Richard," re
cently paid S2O for a kiss, which we
believes breaks all records in the his
tory of Shady Side. It came about
| in this way. It seems that "Uncle
| Richard" was paying his son Ralph.'
;of Baltimore, a visit and was about
[ to leave, when he asked his grand
| daughter. “Hazel." a little miss of
■four summers to kiss him good-bye.
j Hazel said, “No. I will not kiss you
unless you buy me that automobile
■down the street." Uncle Richard said
! again in a coaxing voice. “Come on.
, kiss me good-bye before I leave." The
t little miss again retorted. “No, you
i | have to buy me that automobile down
the street." Uncle Richard turned
slowly to his son Ralph and asked,
‘ ! "What is the price of the automo
-1 | bile?" Upon being informed that the
tjsaid automobile would cost approxi
-1 { mately sixteen dollars. Uncle Rich
■ ,ard extracted two ten-dollar notes
i from his pocket and presented them
t |to his granddaughter, whereupon she
1 ] kissed him good-bye.
s ; The Good Roads Association con
} vened at “Rural Home,” on Saturday
s i evening and was called to order
-{promptly at S o'clock by the chair
• man, Robert F. Nowell. The meet
ling turned out to be the most en
■, thusiastic and we might say “pep
pery" one thus far held. It is plainly
evident that the members of this or
j ganizatiou are determined to have
good roads and will go the limit in
demanding from the county and state
the just recognition of their claims
in behalf of this community. The
chairman reported that during the
j past week members of the Assoeia
a tion had put shells on approximately
s one thousand feet of road at a cost
of one hundred and eighty dollars,
a which we consider a splendid show
ing. At this rate the Association can
v ; build a mile of road for a thousand
s .dollars. Why does it cost the county
r | many times this amount to build a
I mile of shell road? The Association
s. j is determined to prosecute with vigor
>- the good work and there will be a
i- j large number of two-horse wagons
e on the job next week.
1 The oystermen of Shady Side and
' vicinity proved 'their metal |F*riday
by breaking a track for over a mile
through the heavy ice from Parish
Creek to the open waters of the bay.
It took the combined efforts of the
whole fleet, comprising about twepty
five boats of every description to
n complete this arduous work. Not
( ] | withstanding the fact that a half a
j day was consumed before the open
(1 j water was reached, our sturdy oys
>. termen proceeded to the oyster rock
i- jand made splendid catches of the de
djlicious bivalves, for which they re
el ceivcd a reward commensurate with
a the effort involved in the undertak
[ ing. -
'• Mr. and Mrs. Robert F. Weems, of
Boston, arrived in Baltimore on the
Federal Express Wednesday morning,
reaching Shady Side the same day,
where they are spending the holidays

f A great many people follow the
ancient custom of making good reso
lutions on New Year's Day. This is
e an excellent practice not only for
