Invest $50 or $100 for each of your children. It will be the safest kind of an investment and they will be drawing interest from Uncle Sam long after they are grown up. Ownership of one of the bonds instills patriotism and may mark the beginning of the saving habit on the part of your young ones. And think of the pride of your sons and daughters in the years to come when they say: "I helped beat the Germans for I had a Liberty Loan bond." Bring your money to The Sun office and get an engraved certificate filled out with the name or names of your children. When the bonds are ready and the certificates returned they will be canceled and given to your young ones, who will keep them among their most treasured possessions.

The Sun will pay you 3 1-2 per cent, interest from the day you pay your money until June 14, inclusive, when it is expected the bonds will be issued.

EXAMINING BOARD MEETS HERE Bat Has Little Work To Do Medical Men Badly Needed For Camps In IT.

S. And Europe. A draft of doctors is being seriously talked of in Maryland and elsewhere in the country Col. T. H.

Goodwin, of the British Mission, and took part in a meeting at Osier Hall, the object of which was to stimulate interest among Maryland physicians and surgeons in army service. Surgeon-General Gorgas is leading America's efforts to co-operate with the Allies in a medical way. It is not known that he spoke of the necessity of a draft for' doctors while in Major Robert E. Noble, one of General Gorgas' aides, said, however, that the medical department of the army was "doomed" unless doctors volunteered in greater numbers. He, General Gorgas and Dr.

Hugh H. Young, now a major in the reserve corps, all urged the doctors to join the medical officers' reserve corps for service in France or in the concentration camps here. Since then the number of volunteers has been negligible. The examining board, which meets two nights a week at Johns Hopkins Hospital, has had scarcely any candidates. Only 98 Maryland doctors have been accepted, and Maryland's quota is 300.

A Baltimore doctor, who has been giving the Government his services for several weeks, said last night that unless there is a decided increase in volunteer doctors within the next two weeks a draft of doctors may be looked for. They will be compelled to register and to subject themselves to a call by the Government for compulsory service, just as the lay citizen has subjected himself. He was asked how he thought the doctors would receive such a proposition, and he replied: "They will simply have to face it and make the best of it. Their personal feeling and professional pride will be subordinated to the country's need." During the month or more that the examining board has held sessions at Johns Hopkins not more than 15 or 20 applicants have appeared each night and many have been rejected either for serious physical defects or because they could not pass oral or written examinations. The hpysical examinations are rigid, though slight defects are waived if a doctor possesses unusual skill as a specialist.

The oral examination is upon the general subjects of surgery, medicine and hygiene, and if a doctor fails to pass he may ask for a written ex-ammation. GERMANS WANT S. TO WIN 1 Catholic jtnlon Members Pledge Loyalty And Fleet. Many speeches pledging loyalty to the United States were made yesterday at the annual meeting of the German Catholic Union. Paul J.

Prodoehl, president, told how the Union had pledged its loyalty a year ago. Until war against Germany had been declared the members of the Union had" hoped for a German victory, but now, he said, they hoped heart and soul for an American victory. Lawrence A. Firing, one of the members, said that he always had been one of the most loyal rooters for but that he was for the United States and that he had three sons in the uniform of this country.

Another workday week begins and it is going to be a pressed down and running over week for the men who are to bear the brunt of this war in which the stake is liberty, justice, democracy, the things that the fine spirits of all the cges suffered and died to win for humanity. The President will be taxing his heart and soul; great men from all ends of the country will be working in Washington as they never worked before, without pay and simply to serve in the great cause; Pershing will be making ready to leave for France, and 40,000 of the flower of the land will be rflaking ready to follow him, in the full knowledge that many of them will sleep the last sleep under an unmarked foreign clod. What Will Yon Do What are you going to do in this week of sacrifice you who cannot serve in Washington, you who cannot follow Pershing? What are you going to do? Are you going to be one of those who sing "The Star-Spangled Banner" so lustily in public, say to themselves: "What a fine patriot am and quit? Or are you going to get down and get under, in the only way open to you pitching a part of your money into Uncle Sam's lap to help pay the freight? If yon are real American and not a fake Amerlcnn yon tvIII dlsr the money nut of the hank or the linlldlnf? association or wherever yon have stored It array, nnd yon vrlll buy a Liberty Loan bond or bonds, and you will say to yourself "I wish I conld do more!"

The Sun will take your subscription, and it will pay you the 3Mj per cent, interest until June the date of issue for the bonds and the date from which the interest on them will run. That is, The Sun will obligate itself to pay you 3A per cent, interest on the amount you invest from the date of the investment today, for example until June 14, inclusive.

It will give you a certificate of Ihe obligation. The United States will pay you 31 per cent, beginning June 15. You can buy bonds in virtually any sizes. They will be issued as low as $50. All that you have to do is to bring your money $100 or more into The Sun Building, go to the War Bond Bureau on the ground floor, just oft" from the entrance, turn over your money, and and get the receipt and The Sun's obligation to pay the interest until the Government does so, beginning June 15.

It is perfectly simple a child can handle the transaction it is as simple ns buying a pound of sugar at the grocer's. Others Offering T.Ives. Do your part of the fighting today. Remember that other men are offering their lives gladly leaving home, wife, children, all! Remember, too, that the supreme sacrifices of these other men will be without avail unless the Government is given the money it asks of you. Remember that unless there is sufficient money, ample money, this country cannot fight; that unless this country fights and fights, powerfully and promptly, Germany probably will win: that if Germany wins your life will be a shameful serfdom and your children's lives will be a shameful serfdom until that day when the souls of men compel them to shed their blood without measure to recover those human rights which we now enjoy by grace of the battles nnd deaths of the great heroic of passed generations.

Hond For College Prize. Other nien and women are remembering all this. Iast nlsht Ave yon ns men came Into The Snn office to deposit check for a $50 bond, to be delivered later. 'They were a committee of the Calvert JIall College Alomnl Association Frank A. O'Connell, president of the association, and J.

Sehanberjser, Walter O. Weller, Bernard J. Medalry nnd Frank J. Doyle and they said that they wanted the bond to present to the member of the senior departments of the college who writes the best thesis upon "Wilson the Exponent of Universal Democracy." The cu.tom of the alumni association is to present a medal or a prize to the member of the senior class who wins in the thesis contcs But this year the officers of the association determined that the winner would be honored more highly if they contributed the money value of the prize to the Government and gave him the Government's obligation to repay. From Rectortown, Va.

Then there came a letter to The SUN from Washington, written by James W. Woodward, of Rectortown, Va. Mr. Woodward inclosed his check for $250, for which he asked that subscriptions to the Liberty Loan be entered in his name for $200 and in the name of Mrs. I.

McNish Woodward for $50. Lie thanked Tr- Sun for the op portunity given him to contribute to his Government. Do your parti It is going to be a great week. Start in today with its great happenings. CHARLES W.

WASHINGTON IS STILL SILENT Guarding Bridges And Factories "ot Kind Of Work Maryland Soldiery Wants Now.

Orders for the mobilization of the Maryland National Guard have not yet been received from Washington, Adjutant-General Warfield said yesterday. Everything will be "in the air" until the order to move comes, and meanwhile the men of the Maryland brigade are marking time impatiently. With the prospect of camp life just ahead of the guard, detail duties of the Fourth and Fifth Regiments have become irksome. "City life" and guarding railroad bridges and munition and near-munition plants have begun to pall. The grander prospect of "foreign duty soon "has dwarfed everything else.

"How soon? When are we going to get there? When are we going to camp? When will we get away from these 'diggings'?" These queries are from the men of the Fourth and Fifth. The members of the uncalled units Battery the Coast Artillery, Troop A are anxious for even the preliminary call to get under arms, to get to camp and eat 40 cents a day rations from dented tin dishes and cups; where tablecloths and napkins are gloriously outre. It's anything for them -just so they are "with the colors." Troop A is almost hilarious over the likelihood of its being changed to a machine-gun detail. It is the one thing to offset he disappointment of losing its cavalry identiy. The coast artillery men are "on their toes" at the news that they will get foreign service, too, instead 6f an interminable sentence of innocuous desuetude in a coast defense garrison with nothing to do but read of the history-making American forces and keep breech block oiled.

The boys of Battery A scent real and quick action ahead. They are itching for the call to pack and get away with their three-inch pets. In the absence of any direct instructions, it seems assured that the State troops will go into camp at Havre de Grace. A site there was selected several months ago by a joint State and Federal board of military men, and the War Department formally approved the selection. Still the State units might move directly to a divisional concentration point.

LIGHTNING STRIKES SMITHY Storm At Arlington, Pikesville And Mount Washington Severe. During the rain and wind storm yesterday afternoon lightning struck and tore large hole in tne trame Diacksmitn shop of William Kluth, Reisterstown road, Arlington. The storm was very threatening for more than a half hour, and pedestrians and automobile parties were driven to cover by the heavy rainfall. Lightning struck several electric light wires about Arlington, including the feed wire of the lighting plant at the Arlington Methodist Episcopal Church South. This damage was repaired later in the afternoon and the services last evening were not interfered with.

At Pikesville and Mount Washington the storm was also very severe, but little damage was done. Vegetation, which was badly in need of rain, will be much benefited by the shower.

And if he violates the terms of that permit it will cost him $10,000.

It was learned yesterday that Levi Goldenberg, of Goldenberg pro prietors of a department store at West Lexington street, was experienc ing difficulty in obtaining an alien enemy" permit. He lives at the Hotel Rennert and this location and that of his store are in the zone which is denned by the Fourth Regiment Armory. Federal officials refused to discuss the matter yesterday, but from other sources it was learned that Mr. Goldenberg will be granted a permit to live and transact business in that zone, but only upon posting a bond of $10,000 that he will not violate the permit and that he will conduct himself in a manner befitting an alien enemy. He and his attorney were informed Friday of these conditions.

Mr. Goldenberg has been in this coun try more than 35 years and is unnaturalized. It is said that pro-German views on the part of Mr. Goldenberg have been brought to the attention of Federal officials several times since the issuance of the President's alien enemy proclamation. A salesman in the Goldenberg store was arrested a short time ago by Department of Justice officials and is now in jail.

The board of officials in whom is rested the power of granting the permits to aliens has felt the responsibility very keenly and no step has been taken either for or against issuing any rights to an alien until a full investigation has been made. The entire machinery of the offices of Marshal Stockham, Special Agent Harris and District Attorney Dennis has been utilized in checking ap on the applicants. The sponsors for the applicants also are thoroughly investigated. Among those who have been active in attempting to obtain permits for aliens during the last few weeks are John Tjarks, of the Raleigh Hotel, and Henry G. nilken, Baltimore representative of the North German Lloyd Steamship Company.

EVERYONE TO GET CHANCE Home Lesion Will Call For Help For Baltimore Fund. Details of the organization of the "Home Legion" for completing the raising of the Baltimore Fund are expected to be announced this week.

The fund now amounts to $757. SS3.91.

and John T. Stone, chairman of the committee of fifty, announced Saturday that the campaign would not end until the whole amount of $1,500,000 had been completed. "A ftWZ FIFTY WW 3 (lihis isto WOMAN DIVES TO DEATH Miss Maggie M. Klein Jumps Into Water From Hanover St. Bridge.

WAS DEMENTED, SAYS COUSIN Body Found By Sailor Negroes Try To Prevent Her From Knd-1ns Life. The new Hanover street bridge was used for the first time as a means to commit suicide, when Miss Maggie M. Klein, about 38 years old, South Strieker street, climbed over the four-foot concrete railing at about 4.30 o'clock yesterday afternoon and dived 30 feet into the water. The body was recovered by Thomas Witcraft, of the bugeye Russell, after grappling for an hour. It was taken to" the morgue in the police boat Lannan, where it was identified by Charles Hedrich, 414 South Smallwood street, a cousin with whom Miss Klein lived more than a year ago.

Miss Klein, it was stated by her cousin, was demented and had on a number of occasions threatened to end her life. She worked in a shirt factory in Southwest Baltimore and associated with few persons. She probably was seen last by her wash woman, a Mrs. Shoemaker, living on South Furrow street. Mrs.

Shoemaker stated that Miss Klein called at her home last Saturday and acted strangely and appeared extremely nervous. She told Mrs. Shoemaker that she had moved to a house on South Strieker street. The hour chosen by Miss Klein to end her life was one when few persons use the bridge. There were only five who witnessed the One witness said that Miss Klein had mounted the rail within a few feet of where two negroes were working.

The negroes, he said, commented on her actions and approached her just as she leaped. She rose to the surface and made a brief struggle, but did not make an outcry. By the time Witcraft arrived in his boat she had disappeared. Miss Klein is said to have a father living in Philadelphia and a brother in the navy. Coroner Reinhardt, of the Southern district, is investigating.

86 CASES AT NORTHWESTERN L.nrffe Majority Of Prisoners Xe-g roes Arrested As Disorderly. Eighty-six cases, most of them involving charges of disorderly conduct, were tried by Justice Brendel in the Northwestern Police Station yesterday morning. A large majority of the accused were negroes, and 20 or so had been picked up when they were slow about obeying directions to "move on." The magistrate was lenient in most of the" instances, only one or two fines being more than $5 and costs. As a result of the morning's work approximately $15o was added to the receipts at the station, and more than half of the prisoners paid their fines.

WHO'LL HELP IN DRAFT? Mayor Soon To Call For Volunteers To Enroll Men.

POLICE TO PRESERVE ORDER Governor Also Laying- Plans For Insuring Speedy Listing: Of National Army. Slowly but surely the big human machine that will operate to record the name of every man in Maryland between the ages of 21 and 30, both inclusive, for service in the National Army is being constructed. Marshal Carter announced that he had been considering carefully the possibility of attempts by cranks or enemy aliens to break up the registration on June 5 and that the Baltimore police force was prepared to crush any such attempts. New York city is said to be facing threats by the Industrial Workers of the World leaders to create serious disturbances there on registration day. Marshal Carter said he had heard of no plans by the Industrial Workers of the World to extend their operations to Baltimore.

Governor Harrington, for the State, and Mayor Preston, for the city, were laying plans yesterday to issue a call for volunteers who will compose the registration machine that will start to work at 7 o'clock on the morning of June 5 and finish at 9 o'clock in the vening. Both the State and city executives emphasized the necessity for ridding the regisnation and drafting process of the least suggestion of politics. To Call Both Parties. The Mayor said he expected to issue a call for volunteers from both parties and he expressed the hope that the experienced election officials in each precinct would offer $heir services. He has received the registration blanks and question forms, but he declared that before he could complete his plans he wanted to see the Army bill itself.

He expects to get a copy of ittoday, and he will study it carefully. Governor Harrington said that hig idea of the best way to handle the work would be to have the men who have served as clerks at polling places in the county election districts serve as registrars on June 5. He suggested that two clerks be appointed by the various county boards for each district or precinct, and that Democrats and Republicans be equally represented at each point. The appointment of these clerks throughout the State is now up to county boards, composed of the Sheriff, clerk of the court and health officer of each county. Adjutant-General Warfield has directed them to 6end in to him not later than next Thursday reports of their appointments nnd of anything else they may have done toward expediting the work of registration.

Prisoners To Be Recorded. General Warfield will send instructions today to the penal institutions, the Penitentiary, the House of Correction and the City Jail. Every man in these places between 21 and 30 must enroll for service in the army. Persons convicted of infamous crimes are exempt, and so are superintendents, officers and assistants of prisons and jails. But there are many men in the Penitentiary whose sentences will expire shortly after June 5, or who may be pardoned by that time, and some of tGem have not been found ffuiltv of infamous crimes.

In the jail, too, are men who cannot produce bail, who are awaiting trial, and who may not be found guilty. These facts will all be stated on the registration blanks and the selective process will separate tne desirables from the undesirables. Agrents In Hospitals Also. Men of drafting age who are confined to hospitals will register through agents in the hospitals. General Warfield has issued the necessary instructions for this to nospital authorities all over the State, The Maryland National Army, that is those who will be drafted, will be come a part of the Fifth National Army Division.

This body of troops will be made up of men from the states that form the Eighth Tsational Guard Division, Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, Delaware and the District of Columbia. Approximately 50,000 men will be called from the Fifth Division. The drafted men will be under the command of Gen. J. Franklin Bell, of the Eastern Depart ment, while the National Guard of Maryland will be the Southeastern Department, under Gen.

Thomas Chenoweth, 84 'years old, of Bayneville, Baltimore county, was found in a woodshed near his home yesterday morning with blood flowing from a long' gash in his throat. Mr. Chenoweth was found by his son, William Chenoweth, with whom he lived. Dr. Daniel Jenifer, of Towson, and Dr.

cussed And Puhllc Is Asked To Help Clean ITp. "Is there any poliomyelitis (infantile paralysis) in town?" "Do you expect an epidemic this summer?" Officials at the Health Department are being constantly asked these questions, it was learned yesterday. The answer, given by Dr. William T. Howard, Assistant Commissioner of Health, was: "No one can tell for a certaintv Lwhether or not there will be much polio myelitis in Baltimore this summer.

Judging from the history of the disease in the past, it is believed by health officials and other students of the subject that in places where the disease was epidemic last summer there will be but few cases this summer. Experience has shown that extensive epidemics do not occur in two successive years in the same locality. Susceptible Used Up. "The generally accepted explanation for this fact is that during an epidemic year most of those who are susceptible to the disease are attacked, and therefore before a second epidemic can break out in such a locality another crop of susceptibles must grow up. New York city has had epidemics in 1907, 1911 and 1910.

In the inter-epidemic years there are usually a few scattered cases. According to the above, the behavior of poliomyelitis in Baltimore this summer will depend upon the proportion of the population affected last summer. "Judged by the number of reported cases, 206 in a population of G0O.0OO, last year's experience could hardly be called a severe epidemic. The number of cases in Baltimore was much smaller in proportion to the nonulntion tlmn in New York or in many other parts of the country attected. On the other hand, there may have been a large number of very mild cases which were not recognizaoie as poliomyelitis.

"Since the disease made its present appearance in epidemic form in this country Baltimore has never suffered proportionately to the more northern cities. It is probable that the germ which causes the disease varies in its capacity to infect as well as in its virulence in different years and in different places. All Must Help Clean Up.
