A. q. STURGISS,
Secretary

The Garrett county School Board
met in their office at Oakland, on
Friday, 7th inst, present a full Board.
This meeting was called to take
into consideration the charges
brought against the President of the
Board by Commissioner Burns.
The Secretary proceeded to read
the minutes Of the previous meeting,
bat when he came to the preamble
and resolution of DIR. Burns, the
President decided that they should
not be read, that they had not been
acted upon by the Board, and should
not have been placed upon the
minutes.
The Secretary stated that they had
been placed on the minutes from the
fact that they had been offered and
seconded, and therefore should come
up as unfinished business.
Mr.. Delawder moved to adopt so
much of the minutes as had bee
read.
Mr.. Burns objected and claimed
that as his preamble and resolution
had been offered and seconded in II
regular meeting of the Board they
were part of the minutes.
/ Mr.. Brydon seconded Mr.. Delaw
| der's motion.
The question was decided as fol-
lows ayes, Messrs. Brydon and De.
lawder Mr.. Burns did not vote.
Mr.. Brydon then called for the
] reading Of Mr.. Burns charge, which
reciles that the President has on sev-
eral occasions used his official position
for his own private advantage in is
suing notes on the School Board, and
having them discounted, and using
the money so raised for his own use,
and asking for an investigation of
said acts.

Report of the Secretary of the Band of
Hope fer the year ending Dec. g, 1877.

Report Of the Secretary of the Band OF
Hope fer the year ending Dee. 6, 1917.
This Band Of Hope was organized
two years ago, by the Rev. DIR. j. a.
Fullerton, through whose earnest eff
forts it steadily grew for the first
year. At the end of that time he
WAS removed toanother field of lab "
and his place filed by Rev. Benz,
Ison, the minister in charge, under
whose ear est laborS the society has
still been doing good work and
adding to its numbers.
There has been held during the
past year II regular meetings; at
each one there was enrolled addi-
tional names, until we now have 24O
names on the roll. Some have re-
moved, but they still belong to our
Band death has taken several from
our roll. We are glad to report that
we have but few persons connected
with our Band who indulge in the
use of spurious liquors. The attend
ance at orr meetings has been gen
orally very good. The children have
displayed great deal of interest in
the work, often coming through rain
and storm which has kept oder per-
sons away from our meetings. Be-
sides the caution and good advice we
have received from time to time, our
meetings have been made very inter-
esting by literary entertainments
given by members of the society.
The talent displayed by the members
in their several speeches and essays
speaks well for the Band and those
engaged in the work. We would
recommend the organization of TEN :
perance societies throughout the
county in connection with Sunday
Schools, and tram the Young to be
strictly temperate. The wise man
says, Train up ii child in the way
ne should go, ana When he IS ola he
will not depart from it."
The rules Of this society, as pre-
scented by its founder at its organi-
cation, provide that the Preacher in
Charge of the NJ. E. Church shall be
the President. and the officers of the
NJ. K. Sunday School shall constitute
the executive committee, and that
the Band snail at its last meeting
hight in each year elect two vice
presidents and the President shall
appoint three committees, each to
consist of FIVE members, one to pre-
pare programme for III nthly meet
ings, one on musicand one to procure
speakers and essayists.
