down With the Dust ,"

ID. Il. Sloan, using the letter-head Of
the Homecoming Savings Bank for an
initial flourish, writes to the Forum en-
closing a check for So for that pager
for W. B. Bradley and himself. In
closing he says to the susceptible
editor
You ought to get 1000 subscribers in a
month.
If Mr.. Sloan had been sincere his
check would have been written for
$1,000, instead of a beggarly So.
If the Forum ougM to get 1000 sub
scrlbers in II month it ought to get
them in Il day.
Besides his own and Mr.. Bradlev's
names, therefore, there should have
been list of l,99S others.
That would have been for "a paper
that is paper BUSINESS that is bust
ness.

pearing quite literally. The day was
clear, breezy and warm, but not too
warm. The dust, however, marred the
general pleasure.
The fun began with the organiza-
ton uptown of the local companies
for the march to the railroad station
to meet the Cumberland and creek
visitors.
At that point shortly after 10 the

Each company had some portion of
its apparatus beautifully decorated
with flowers.
The comedy portion of the parade
was very funny, and several new
features evinced decided inventive
talent.
The route taken from Main street
took in Broadway, Frost avenue,
High, back to Main, Bowery and Loo
streets to Beall's Park.
Here F. C. Beall, Mayor Bear, E. j.
Lawyer, State Fire Marshal, and J. j.

The day passed in usual picnic style,
all enjoying themselves.

Arrest.

Lewis Schaub and Peter Langley
had debate Thursday in which Mr..
Schaub impeached Mr.. Langley's good
citizenship. This is a point upon
which Mr.. Langley is sensitive, and
he reported his hurt feelings to con-
stable Lewis. Schaub, believing he
had not rebelled against his country,
dislocated a coat sleeve in getting
away and outran everybody except a
man who was meeting him. He was
then Gagged until yesterday forenoon
when justice Smeltz sent him to Jail
for 30 days. This was bitter, but it
was nothing to the remorse Mr.. Schaub
felt when Mr.. Langley added the fol-
lowing temperance lecture:
Levy, if you don't quit getting drunk you
will wake up some morning and find your
enacting clause struck out.

In Homecoming "a pessimist" is one
who does not believe that towns club
ever will win another game from
Frostburg. 1t ought to be a very
joyless place.
Some Mt. Savage people now drink
kola-celery as ga bracer." 1t serves
the purpose almost as we'll as the
Kentucky beverage and doesn't oc-
casion so much remark.
The Homecoming Star betrays de-
cline of general prosperity at Barton,
and 1t is now thought that town will
have to do without a commissioner
four years in order to obtain three
months ''sit" in the House Of Dele
gates.
When a Mt. Savage visitor asks a
Homecoming man "what, if any, prog.
ress Homecoming is making in the
higher reaches of social refinement
his attention is called to the physical
culture class, the Theosophlc society
and J. j. Robinson.
A Mt. Savage speller thinks "the
name Of the new Frostburg paper
suggests that it is for ruln," and man
at Barrelville contends that sit is the
business motto of a bull-frog with a
deep bass voice." The frog sings for
that neighborhood every calm evening
after dark.
J. j. Robinson returned from the
far north one day last week and now
it is said that H. C. Rank hopes that
''the germs of sin have at last been
frozen out of the Joker's system"

A beautiful conception of the Iona
coming Recie~ is done up below in
rhyme:
A man may have ability, but it isn't any sign
That he'll occupy the palace car and catch
the train on time;
For the smallest kind of horse-tiy draws a
powerful lot of blood,
And a little runty hog will root heap of
nasty mud.
The mosquito, who is smallest as well as
pretty lean,
Is the one who gives the trouble when he
wriggles through the screen,
The tallest kind of swearing is occasioned as
we see,
By the energetic action of a very little flea.
