"Wouldn'i it be good idea to properly
observe Thanksgiving day, once! Some peo.
pie work, as usual, as if they really couldn't
get their work done, by leaving this day out,
and thus prevent others from observing the
day who want to do so. Certain kinds of
work must be done, irrespective of holidays,
but there are many who might take this day
of, If they would.
Why not encourage family reunions. on
Thanksgiving day; certainly, no other day Is
quite so appropriate. If you are the old
folks get the children together. and your
brothers and sisters; If you are the children
ask father and mother and the rest of the
folks Have real Thanksgiving Day, and
don't forget to return thanks to the Giver of
all good for the blessings you enjoy-this is
of first significance.
Don't be guilty Of hauling farm produce to
market on this day, or of bothering the
storekeeper who conscientiously desires to
close up. Another thing; don't take the day
off, and get off yourself-be Thankful,
without getting full"

Death Of Miss Margaret Warrenfeltz.

Miss Margaret Sophia, eldest daughter OF
Elder Uriah Warrenfeltz, fell peacefully
asleep in Jesus, on the 22nd day of Novem.
Der 1900, aged 81 years. months and 12 d.
In ercording the death Of this noble chris
tian woman, we are cOmfOrted in the fact,
that, though her sun went down while it
was yet day, she has not lived in vain for
her beautiful, exemplary life. will still live
on In the memory OF those who knew and
appreciated her sterling qualities and genu-
inc WORTH charac teristics, which were the
ma tural outgrowth of christian nurture and
education; which, together with the exem.
plary home life in which she was reared all
served to crystalize into the symmetrical
character which was peculiarly hor own, q
model Of virtue and consistency.
Possessing good mind and having the
desire for liberal education, in 1855, Miss
Warrenfetz Tatriculated in the Frederick
Female Seminary then under the care of
from which institution she graduated in 1859
with honors.
Her education, instead of depreciating her
sense of true wumanhOOd, as is too often the
case, on the other hand. seryed to heighten
it, and make her the noble woman that she
was, fit companion for the truest and best.
Upon the death Of her sainted mother, ~
years ago, she assumed the duties of the
household and the solicitude of two younger
sisters and became her fathers chief adviser
and councillors often in pain and misery, but
accomplishing until within The last few
months her suffering became too great, and
becoming alarmed, she at once put herself
under the care of medical skill, but 1t WAS
too late, the insidious disease had gotten
beyond medical help. All that living hearts
could advise for the best, was Of no avail.
The frail body, so used to suffering could
not stand the final ordeal, and the end came
just at the beginning of new day, when
anxious, praying friends we're waking fully
In anticipation of hopeful news. her un-
daunted spirit passed to its eternal reward.
She triumphed even in death for there
comes back to the bereaved friends, the hal
lowed remembrance of what a soul may be
come, under pormal influences Of justitying
faith.
On the afternoon of the Goth inst. after a
brief Liturgical Service, in keeping with
her wishes, by her pastor, attended by a
large concourse Of sympathizing friends, her
weary body was tenderly and lovingly laid
beside her sainted mother to await the final
resurrection.

First Heavy Rain in Mon tbs.

On Sunday night last this section was Wis
tied by the heaviest rain that has fallen since
early in the spring. During the past week
the weather conditions were unusual In the
first place 1t was unseasonably warm and on
Wednesday and Thursday nights flashes ol
lightning were reflected above the horizon
though no clouds were to be seen: again on
Sunday afternoon there were several flashes
of lightning but no thunder, the thunder
cloud being at too great distance. These
very unusual happenings were followed by
the very heavy rainfall about midnight. The
streams are flush and the springs and wells
that hayc been nearly or quite dry will be
started up. Through all the drought our
brave little stream, High Run, has provided
for every demand made upon it by the wa
ter service in our town.
Further Steps In the Railroad Natter.
The executive committee OF the W. F. &

during the past several weeks securing op.

What's Wrong In Frederick County.


We give in another column the population
of Maryland, by Counties as shown by the
censuses of 1880, 1890 and 1900. We find
that In twenty years our neighbors have
beaten ua,wlth conditions Identical or so near.
" 30 that we can see no just grounds for
taking exception to the ,tatement that, of
the three, Frederick, Carroll and Washington
counties, no one of them has profted by
exceptional conditions. In the case of Mont.
gomery it is different as the overflow, or
suburban population Of Washington City
will entirely account for the increase in that
county.
Since 1880 Frederick county has gained
but 1 .438, while Carroll has gained 1855.
Washington 8.572 and Montgomery 5,6a2.
While Frederick has gained less than 3
per cent. in 20 years, Carroll has gained over
per cent. and Washington nearly 10 per
cent. and the State, out side of Baltimore
City III per cent. during the same period.
Our county is therefore doing but about one.
fourth as well as the average of the State
outside of Baltimore City. We have taken
twenty instead of ten years as the basis of
our comparison, as the census Of 1890 showed
loss of population In this county which we
bel,eye to have been due to errors, hence the
census of 1900, correcting those errors. does
not show the actual growth of population in
the county during the past ten years.
That our county ls unwarrantsbly tagging
behind is as painful as 1t is palpable; who
will account for 1t?
