CITY PEOPLE WHO SPEND THE
SUMMER IN TALBOT BY THE
BAY SIDE.
Easton, Nd, July 12.-The season for
Summer boarders in Talbot Is now
fully opened, and hundreds OF city peo-
pie are luxuriating in the delights OF
Talbot rural life at modest and COM
Portable resorts on the Choptank river
the Eastern bay, the tired Avon, Miles
river and various tributaries Of these
streams.
The arrivals will continue until the
FIRST OF August. The average stay Is
six weeks for each individual, and a
careful calculation puts the estimate
OF the whole number OF different indi-
viduals who came into Talbot last year
for a part Of the Summer to be 1910
Most of these take the farm houses on
the salt water or the waterside town
but the interior places have their cus
TONERS also. Board Is from $3.50 to 81
a week Besides the cash money tn,
business provides, one great advantag,
is the market feeding all these people
furnishes for homegrown products
fruits, vegetables. poultry, lambs
calves, ETC., besides water products
fish, crabs, CLAIMS and frogs The in
cidentals of boating, driving ant
wheeling also drop a considerabl,
sum.
The old superstition of Eastern
Shore miasma has departed, as far al
this section is concerned. The SAM
people from Baltimore come here yea
after year and know nothing Of a chill
nor fever. The druggists do not keel
fever 'nager" medicines, and the in
flux Of the Summer visitors is of m
benefit to them nor to the doctors.
Some families choose Talbot becaus
il is mainly a dry county, on tn
ground that the moral atmosphere 1
better than where there is the license,
sale Of liquors. On the other hand
some avoid Talbot because It is a dr.
county, preferring to Summer in Wi
comico or st. Marys, where they cai
get what they want to drink as well al
TO eat.

"By Hook or Crook"

In old times the poor of a manor were
permitted to obtain as fuel the dead
wood from the surrounding woodland.
The dead twigs and branches which
were beyond their reach they were al
lowed to lop off with hook or a crook.
There is document among the rec
ords of the town of Bodmin which gives
the right to the burgesses of the town,
under the concession of the prior of
Bodmin "to bear and carry away on
their backs and in no other way the lop,
crop, hoop. crook and bag wood in the
prior's wood of Dunmeer.
Another part of this paper mentions
this as "a right with hook and crook to
lop, crop and carry away fuel, etc., in
the same wood.
The date of this record is 1926. New
York World
