inunlon service which officially opened
the session. Rev. Edward D. John
! son, rector of St. Anne’s Protestant
'Episcopal Church, this city, is attend-;

and lay delegates met in the parish
house of the church last night, ap- ;
plauded vigorously the announcement
of Bishop Murray that Maryland had
; oversubscribed its quota in the recent
nation-wide campaign, a total of $848,-
000 having been pledged as against the
SBIO,OOO assigned to this diocese. The!
Bishop called the service a “ratifica
tion meeting” and reported at length
j the achievements of the individual
j parishes, all save three having made
their final report.
Immediately after the communion
service today the Bishop read his an- ]
nual address, which was awaited with
keen Interest because of the many f
topics of pressing interest and import
ance upon which his dictum was ex-j
pected. Business sessions will be held
.morning and afternoon until tomor- ]
row, and the gathering will be follow
' ed tomorrow evening 'by a general re

'l
Morning Robbery at Murray Hill
1 j Jewelry consisting of four or five
: diamond rings, solitaires and clus
ters, valued at over SI,OOO, made up
‘the booty of a thief, who some time
between 3 and 4 o'clock this morn
ing burglarized the residence of Mrs.
J. S. Bowdoin, No. 43 Franklin street,
Murray Hill. Tthe robbery was
! promptly reported to city police
! headquarters, and chief Charles Obery
and his corps of patrolman began an
j investigation, although they have no
working clue, other than a meagre
i description of the man, furnished by
Miss Elizabeth Nott who was visiting
Mrs. Bowdoin, am: who was aroused
and spread the alarm.
Mrs. Bowdoin and family who only
! moved to Annapolis last fall, live in
| the house owned by Captain Marble,

SUCCESS ATTENDS
FIRS! CH. CAMPAIGN
The evangelistic campaign now go
ing on at First Methodist Episcopal
(Church, opposite the State House, is
proving most successful.
Fifty-three persons were received
into the church last Sunday tnorn
] ing, and It is expected that a very
large group will le received next
Sunday morning. Ten persons were
received as members of the church'
during the preliminary program for
the campaign. The attendances have
been remarkably fine considering the
unfavorable weather. The series
comes to a climax tomorrow night
] when Dr. William H. Morgan, pastor
jof First Church, Baltimore, and un
itil recently pastor of Calvary Church,
New York city, will be the speaker.
' Dr. Morgan has also for many years
been the leader of the young people’s
meeting at Ocean Grove, New Jersey.
He is one of Methodism’s noted ora
tors; a forceful speaker in every
sense and every inch a man's
preacher.
Anthony W. Bennett, of Baltimore,
the singing evangelist, will have
charge of the music. Mr. Bennett is 4
very popular in Annapolis, and is
rendering fine service in the present
campaign. This particular meeting
of the campaign is under the direc
tion of the Wesley Brotherhood of
First Church. Everybody is cordially
! invited to be present. The evangel
istic campaign will {probably close
on next Sunday night.
On Friday night Rev. A. E. Owens,
of Trinity Meihidost Episcopal
Church. South, this city, will be the

10 LOCAL BILLS
I OFFERED IN NOOSE
Two local bills made their appear
ance in the House at yesterday s
session. Both of them were offered
by Delegate Holladay. One provides
for increasing the membership of the
j County Board of Education from 3 to
6, two of the increased members to be
, women. A bill carrying these same
provisions was introduced at the last
1 session of the Legislature by Dele
gate Linthicum but failed of passage.
The other bill provides for abolish
ing the office of Police Justice for the
Second district, the special jurisdie
j tion of which is now the Eastport.
I Germantown and other surburban
neighborhoods. Robb Combs is the
present incumbent.
It is understood that Senator Brady
also has a bill affecting this office, but
that it proposes a fee basis of self
support, instead of salary, and not to
abolish it altogether.
SPECIAL MEETING TO
! CONSIDER LEGISLATION

consideration of matters of legisla
tion affecting the county, the County
Commissioners will hold a special

ilers of the House of Delegates are
especially invited to be present.
Among the chief matters up for
consideration will be roads; also the
offices of police magistrates for the
Second and the Fourth districts,
which are frequently referred to as
being unnecessary’ offices; the amount
to be fined for the pay of prisoners
; at the jail; the question of having as
j sessiuent of property changed before
Ij deeds are received for record, and
'jother matters of public interest.

DISK ACTIVITIES
OF LOCAL Y. W. C.A.;
Enthusiastic Meeting of All
Committees Held At Head
quarters on Monday
NEW LEADERS SECURED
An enthusiastic meeting of all Y. W. j
C. A. committees was held at head-j
quarters Monday afternoon at 3j
o’clock. After the reading of a pas-!
sage and prayer bv Mrs. Theodore i
Johnson, chairman of the Provisional
Committee, the treasurer's report
was called for. This was followed by
a most interesting account from Miss
McGregor of general activities during
the month. Miss McGregar spoke first |
of the Sunday afternoons for young
people, planned by Mrs. Carpentier,;
and most successfully carried out; the'
work for the present being taken care}
of by the tea service committee, assist- j
ed by the girls’ work committee. The ■
living room at the Y. W. C. A. has been
made use of for these community serv-j
ice committee meetings, and one meet-j
ing of tile Mothers’ Circle. Various!
emergency calls have been met in a j
helpful way. Mrs. Montgomery, who;
lias given so much time and thought to]
the room registry bureau and other',
activities, has most generously loaned j
chairs and a picture, and prese ued;
over one hundred books to the library. [
Miss Leonard’s report showed mat
she had secured three new leaders tor
girls’ work, the Misses Scott and Miss
Cluverius.
Mrs. St. George Barber, county me m
bership chairman, had five senior and
one junior member to report, making a j
total of seventy-two senior and twen-j
ty-seven junior members. It is the!
that the ninety and nine will speedily I
be increased to one hnudred. Five
town members have been added during
the month.
It was not necessary for Mrs. Daeh-'.
iell, chairman of the house committee,!
to call attention to the work of her de-1
partment as everyone had been admir
ing the new paper and paint. All of:
the rooms upstairs have been re-paper-:
ed and painted and some work done on
the first floor. For all of this and also i
the installation of a steam table in the]
cafeteria and a sink under the stair- J
way. National headquarters provides
the funds. The members of the as,°o-;
ciation feel most grateful far this help '
All of the bedrooms are rented and the
receipts provide for the upkeep o. the
building.
The room registry bureau, Mr 3. Ed
ward Darlington Johnson chairman,
reported many rooms rented through
the bureau. No charge is made for
this service, which is much appre
ciated by both the hostess and those
seeking accommodations. Ninety-seven
girls were placed for the New Year’s
hop alone. When “The Log” came out
the following week it contained an ar- (
tide full of praise for the Y. W. C. A.,
because of the help of the registry
bureau had been to perturbed midship
men who previously had paced the
streets seeking rooms for fair maidens
and their chaperones.
And the midshipmen are by no
means the only ones benefited by this !
service, as many requests for rooms i
come from those who wish permanent
accommodations.
Mr 3. Linthicum, chairman of the
cafeteria committee, announced that]
all service is now a la carte, except j
that the school childrens’ lunch for 25
cents will be continued. The success
of the inauguration day luncheon serv-j
ed to the Governor’s Guards of one
hundred men was touched upon.
Mrs. Robert Moss reported that the;
deed transferring the building prop- j
erty to the Y. W. C. A. is prepared
and ready to sign.
The date of the meeting has been!
] changed to the Monday nearest the]
tenth of each month. On this day the !
Provisional Committee meeting will be
held at 3 o’clock, followed by the gen
eral committee meeting at four.
It was a delightful surprise to many
present to learn from Mrs. Rippere
that “Cho-Cho,” the wonderful health
.clown, will be in Annapolis next Mon
day at the Republic theatre, and that |
all school children, from both town,
and county, are to have a chance to see
and herr him at either the morning or
afternoon performance.
Members of the various committees
will make special contributions in or-:
dcr to pay all expenses and furnish j
this treai free to all the school chil-;
dren Annapolis.

BOLSHEVISM IS
LEIiIEISM. SAYS
AUTHOR-LECTURER
Dr. George Meade Urges That
Constitution Of United States
Be Taught In Public Schools
Involves Our Well Being—ll
lustrated By Map
NO HYPHENATED FLAG;
BUT OUR REAL FLAG|
j
Showing from a map composed of I
four circles, the larger representing
the “people,” tile other the "legisla
i tive," the “judiciary,” the “executive"
! departments of the Constitution of the
| United States, .and the triangle eon
j neeting the three circles, the check
i each places upon the other, I)r George
j Meade, author and lecturer, gave a
| most interesting and instructive ad
| dress last evening in the Presbyterian
Church.
j Seldom is it the good fortune of an
; audience to hear so much of an in
! structive, historical nature in a given
i time, presented in such a happily ex
j pressed manner. Dr. Meade proved
‘himself thoroughly conversant with
his subject, and able to handle it in a
j masterful fashion. His subject was
!“Bolshevism; Are We Heady For a
| Revolution?” The subject alone spoke
| its importance to the Constitution of '
the United States, and the well being <
of the government involved.
The lecturer said he was not an
alarmist, and faced a future without i
| fear. He said he believes in the Ameri- .
can people and in their deep feeling
for humanity and devotion to country, <
which he said is sure to solve the great i
question now pressing to be solved.
The problem should be met intelligent- <
ly, he said, and in the spirit of reason
ing together. He reviewed the present
conditions of affairs, industrial rela
| tions, disturbances, the great feeling
i of unrest seething over the country at
this time, all brought about by the ag
gregation going about telling that
labor is being robbed by capital, i
j Workers are not happy, but discon
i tented. They are told to confiscate
property, to take control of industry
and all machinery of State, and to con
j vert this government to that similar to
Russia.
Bolshevism is a word brought into
use in 1903. In the Russian language
!it means simply “larger.” Dr. Meade
described Bolshevik and Bolshevism,
and said Bolshevism is synonymous
"Lenine-ism.” He spoke of the groups
of Bolsheviks, some of whom consti
tuted 125,000 men, under the director
ship and dictatorship of one man. The
Bolshevik government is opposed to
democratization; being against a
democratic form of government. He 1
said it is a sad and pathetic state of
things in our country that permits the
! poor laboring man to be delued into
opposing the Constitution of the
United States. Bolshevism is dictator
ship, rule of a small group or a class
over 180.000,000 of people of Russia—
centralized government, inverted i
Czarism, an autocracy, absolute.
