GERMAN, President. CHARLES H. WISE, KJGUST F. MUELLER, supervisors of Elections of Baltimore County. DERSON. Clerk. A RETURN FAVOR. A member of the Chicago bar tells, the following story of the coolest man he ever knew. This man was awakened one night by burglars. He got up and went downstairs, and as he entered the dining-room, where the thieves were engaged in wrapping the silverware, they covered him with their revolvers. This, however, did not disconcert the householder at all. "Pardon me for disturbing you, gentlemen," said he, "but I should like you to do me a fovar. If it is/ not too much to ask, will you be so good as to post this letter for me? It must go tonight. It's the premium for my burglary insurance." A CHOICE OF WORDS. After having paid a fine of $5 and costs, a certan man directed some rather indelicate language at Justice Cooney, of Compton, and then ran. An officer captured him, brought him before the justice, who fined him $10 more. "Had you been more chaste and refined in your language," said the justice, "you would not have been chased and refined/'______________________ AT THE SWITCH We have everything prescribed by physicians and our compounding la conducted with skill and care by graduates of pharmacy.

JNG THE PERIOD that our property was under Government control, the revenues from operation belonged to le Government and the Government was responsible for the :penses. When it became apparent to the Federal authorises that, due to war prices of labor and material, revenues lorn the properties were not equal to expenses and the Gov-tament was thereby sustaining a loss, the Postmaster leneral directed the companies affected to establish rates fgh enough to produce revenues sufficient to meet expenses. JTUDY OF THESE requirements was made shortly |er the Armistice was signed, when there were indications [t there would be a decrease in the prevailing costs of labor material. With a desire not to burden our subscribers any more than was absolutely necessary, this company >lished rate schedules—not adequate at the time—but ch we believed, with the anticipated decrease in costs jbor and material, would prove to be sufficient. iXPECTED DECREASE IN COSTS DID NOT >ME A REALITY.

L. WATSON It was Dick Williams' dollar. You may be interested to know how Dick got his dollar, well, he cleaned off the snow from three pavements with a broow and a spade, and he went errands; and he would not like it known, but he minded a baby which for a kid Dick's age, is some job. So after a while Dick had in pennies, nickels, and quarters; something over a dollar. One day he said to his Dad, "I want a brand new bank bill for this change." So Dick had a brand new dollar bill all his own that he had earned. What he should do with it was a big problem to Dick. It was the first dollar Dick had earned, and he was justly proud of his achievement. He felt himself to be a rich man owning one brand new dollar. It was Saturday when Dick got his dollar, and the boys were passing with skates on their shoulders going skating on Lake Roland, do you wonder that he, like any other boy, wanted a pair of ice skates too. But Sunday changed his plans, for itj was on Sunday that the speaker at Sunday School told about Armenia; told of the murder of men, women and children by the Turks. He heard of a whole city of orphans with not a boy or girl With a father or mother. He saw pictures of how the relief furnished by the Americans provided food for the hungry, clothes for the naked and comforted the suffering. Dick had brought his dollar to Sunday School to show the kids, but the story of the Armenians was too much for Dick, so when they passed the plate around to receive the offerings, Dick gave his whole dollar for their relief. It was like cutting off his right arm when he put it in the plate, but somehow he felt good. When he got back home he told his Dad, and his father looked at him in a peculiar way, but said nothing. That night Dick went up to his room, but he could not go to sleep very quickly. He thought about the dollar he had given; thought about the skates that he wanted; thought about the other fellows gliding over the ice, and he seemed to see the strange-faced people hungry and dying and all the misery that was in the word "Armenia." The first thing Dick knew he saw His Dollar standing up before the class and school. "Now, Kids, you know I am Dick's Dollar. He earned me, shoveled snow, went errands, and even minded a kid, which is nothing to laugh at, for you fellows who have your money given you, and don't have to earn it. Then I am Dick's Dollar because he gave me. That took some courage, don't you forget, for he wanted skates bad and it was all he had. Now I want to tell you something. Listen, Kids, I am glad he gave me to so good a cause as saving the lives of the Armenian children, because it gave me a soul. You never thoughy*Srfk>Ear had a soul. Sometimes that is true when you spend it for drink, gambling and selfish enjoyment, but when a man gives his sacrifice, his love and his prayers to his Dollar—the Dollar gets a soul. Say, fellows, how many of you will do as Dick did and put a Soul into a Dollar? Would you believe it, every hand went up and a chorus of voices said: "We will do what Dick did." Suddenly a voice sounded in his room: "Hello, Dick, I am your Dollar.'' Dick looked, and sure enough, there was his dollar, but the dollar had a head, feet, legs, and arms, and it smiled on him and talked as well as he could—talked English to him. "You thought I was yours when you EARNED me, but I was not at all; but when you GAVE me, then I became yours forever. You just look here right under my heart," the Talking Dollar said, "right here, in red ink, 'D. W.' That means 'Dick Williams.' That is you. Whoever gets me after this will always know that I belong to D. W.' Dick, I have come to take you to Armenia to see me work for you." And with that, the Talking Dollar took him up in its arms and was out the window traveling over woodlands and fields, now and then over a river or a town gleamed out, and then he felt as though a wide ocean was under him, and then blackness, and not long afterward land again. Then they dropped down to earth, and the Talking Dollar said: "Here we are in Armenia." YOUR TASK Baltimore County's quoto is $10,000, and this medns that the residents of Baltimore County are pledged to provide food for one year for one hundred and sixty-odd starving Armenians. We must not fail in this most momentous task, so do not wait until workers call on you, but send in your checks at once. Cut the coupon attached below and help those who cannot help themselves, W. C. KENNEY, Chairman, W. C. CRAUMER, Treasure, Baltimore County Near East Relief. It was a dreadful sight that greeted the eyes of Dick Williams. He seemed to hear little children crying, '' Bread, bread, bread," and then as they approached the cry was, "Here they come, here they come," and Dick looked around and saw hundreds of ragged children going to long counters and soon they were eating ravenously as though they had been hungry for many a day. He looked on them with terror. It was a terrible sight for the American boy. The place, he learned, was Alexandropol, and he heard they only received one-half pound of bread and a lump of sugar a day. He found little children in weaving shops; little girls making rugs. He saw a lot of children trying to pick something out of the grass, and somebody said they were eating candle grease. Many of them had bloated faces from eating grass, and as he went through the city following the Dollar as his guide he heard the moan, "Bread, bread, bread." It was a city of dreadful silence. Over 50,000 refugees were there. And as they walked through those dark, cell-like rooms of the Russian barracks, they saw groups of wretched humanity huddled together on flag stones. Through the dimness they could see a multitude of arms stretching forth, and hear the low moan of, "Bread, bread, bread." Those who were strong enough stumbled up and followed them out into the sunshine ; an unforgetable throng of waxen faces and wasted bodies streaming with rags. To them Dick and the Dollar must have looked like bright spirits that had come among the lost. The' manager of the Relief said they were dying at the rate of 250 a day, and as they passed along they counted fifteen bodies lying in the street. The Turk in retiring had swept Alexandropol bare of everything. They were told of a young Armenian girl accompanied by her parents who trudged to the river's edge; presently the latter came back with a sack of Tartar flour instead o± the daughter. They learned she had been exchanged for the sack of flour. The girl seemed glad to eat her flour where there was plenty and the parents who saved her and themselves from starvation were content. Dick, following his guide, found himself, a little later, at Erivan, capital of the little Armenian republic. There he saw a great, tall mountain with snow on it. He was told it was Mount Ararat. He found some hundred thousand refugees camped there and death was taking toll of the starving children. ¦ He was watching them eat at the Relief Station when one little fellow with an arm missing, but with a fine face, and bright black eyes, came up to him and looked Dick full in the face. Dick could never forget the gratitude shown ther. "My name is Rusten," the boy said. "You saved my life. They were just closing the doors because they had no more money when your Dollar came rushing in and said, ' Give me to him for Dick Williams; I am his Dollar.' So they took the Dollar and here I am alive." And with that the boy kneeled and kissed Dick's feet. It made the American boy weep, and when he opened his eyes the boy was gone, but in his stead there stood a Man, such a wonderful man. He had seen pictures of him in his Sunday School book, and remembered it in the family Bible, but here He was Himself standing. The Man smiled at Dick and said: "Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye did it unto Mje," and then Dick knew it was the Lord standing there. He was so astonished that he could not move. • He was just about to speak when he awoke and found it all a dream, and that he was lying in his bed in his room in America. But even as he came back to consciousness, he seemed to hear a voice say, "Remember, Dick, I am your Dollar forever." Remember, Dick, you gave me my Soul!'' How many of you will give a Dollar a Soul by consecrating it to Armenia? Baltimore Countian, Your Dollar Has A Soul.
