During the session Of 1884. Hon.
]. Writ Randall. then one Of the mem-
bers Of the House OF Delegates from this
county, introduced a joint resolution,
which was adopted. instructing the Gov
ernor to designate annually. by prnclama
tion, the 10th ef April az Arbnr Day 10
the State 81 Maryland. Gov Lloyd dis.
regarded the resolution entirely. and for
one year Of his term Gov. jackson lgnor-
ed Il. Recently. however, and much TO
the satisfaction OF those in the State who
wish t. keep pace with the times, the
Governor has designated the day named
10 the resolution as Arbor Day, which
was first introduced BY Mr.. Randall aud
passed by the House.

such will disabuse their minds of this

short of funds and need much more than

lighted a candle, then We had fire. We
mostly kept fire covered with ashes on the
hearth, but sometimes it would 20 out:
then we went to the nearest neigbbors,

took a little iron kettle with a long wire

a tread-wheel to propel the boat. At the

at another tap they would stop, | went
