AT the conclusion another compli-
Gated march was executed
The curtain fell on one of the most
interesting pageants eyer shown in
Frostburg.
NOTES.
All did remarkably well. Indeed,
it would be unjust to particularize.
The costumes were designed and
made up with surprisingly good taste,
considering the many difficulties to be
overcome. The most notably attract
i've were those of Misses Emma Mayer,
Cora Wade, Rose Percy, Annie L.
Coyner, May T. Smith, Mary Raley,
Grace Shaffer, Mary Mayer, Zena
Griffith, Bessie Coyner, Kate krapf,
Ray Shaffer, Venie Spitznas, Mamie
CAN'T, Ella Huston and Nettie Shuck-
hart.
The JOURNAL will be pardoned for
saying its own pretty representative,
Miss Allie Parker, wore a full jeweled
gold crown and was attired in u
GreciaD costume-a sort of Dalmatian
gown of yellow and skirt Of black, the
one tastefully trimmed with ebon, the
other with gold braid, In her hand
she carried a pen more formidable in
proportions than the sword of Damocles
which the JOURNALS contemporaries
so frequently refer to, and on her right
sat a Gagged owl. in his palmy days a
giant of the kingdom of strir tiammea.
Miss Parker's well-delivered address,
which is published here by special re-
quest Of gentleman auditor, explains
the Test:
LoaieS and Gentlemcn:
1t is my privilege to represent the MINING
JOURNAL.
AS YOU see, | have chosen to appear in
black and yellow, the colors of our beloved
State.
These colors are peculiarly appropriate to
this portion of Observation-Disclosures indicating
the hue of our great mineral product yellow
the color of the gold it brings back to reward
our industrious people.
The individual to whom direct your at
tention is the emblem of wisdom.
But it is impossible for anybody to be as
wise as he looks.
In this case everybody will recognize him
as the editor of the JOURNAL.
Years ago he was soldier.
But owing to circumstances over which he
had no control he threw down the sword and
took up the pen.
Because the pen is mightier
The cage is also an emblem
But not of the Sanctum.
1t represents the environment of good and
bad which we call public opinion
And it illustrates the independence of the
editor.
And the freedom of the press
1t Is one OF the cltadelS OF liberty, with
everybody enjoying more liberty than the
editor.
But this part of my presentation is ironicaI.
The JOURNAL is free and independent.
1t is part of the influential press of the
country.
And part of which we have reason to be
proud.
Knowing you will agree with me, | will
conclude by offering this sentiment to all
newspapers:
May the oirtme of the Press be ever equal
with the po@er of the Press
At this writing the net receipts of
the entertainment are over $40, with
the returns not all in. The sum real
lied will be between $3.50 and $l75.
The scheme of the entertainment Is
