Telephone Company Organic ed.

The first meeting Of the stockhold-
ers of the Jefferson County Telephone
Company was held in county court
room Tuesday afternoon. Nearly all
of the stock that has been subscribed
was represented at the meeting, which
included representative body of cit
liens from all sections of the county.
James M. Mason, Jr., called the meet
ing to order. He took occasion to
state clearly and at some length his
attitude toward the origin and future
of he proposed company. 1t was ex-
planned that within few years, a
phone would be necessary to every
wide-awake man, whether doctor, law
yer, merchant or farmer, and hence
it was most important that the bust
ness should be owned and managed
by the persons using, phones and not
by outsiders who had no concern eI-
cept to collect the most money. ga
phone, like a turnpike" he said,
should be controlled by the persons
who use it." Attention WAS called to
the fact that no local company could
succeed unless it had a ng.distance
connection, and parties representing
non-residents were now endeavoring
to obtain from town council and
county court the franchise of using
streets and roads, and thereby stlfe
this home enterprise. The following
citizens of the county were elected
directors: N. R. Roberts, G. E. Hughes,
S. II. Lands, Logan B. Shut, ]. VIM
Blackford, l. w Williams, Il. L. Sny-
der, DIR. VIM. Neil, Walter Dittmyer,
James E. Watson, Thos. R. Moore,
II. G. Getzendanner, James NJ. Mason,
Jr., T. Lee Shirley.
After the stockholders, meeting ad-
iourned the directors met and elected
Nelson R. Roberts president, and G.
E. Hughes vice-president and Thos,
R. Moore secretary and treasurer.
The work of construction will begin
within the next few days. The COM
pany has contract with the Chesa-
peak and Potomac Telephone Com
pany by which it will rent the Bell
telephones and be connected with all
the companies throughout the United
States using the Bell phones, and by
which the c. & P. Telephone Com
pany covenants that no sub-licensee
no company using the Bell instru'
ment) will connect with any other
company doing business in Jefferson
county, nor undertake to interfere in
any manner with the management
Of the local company. Sufficient funds
have been collected to begin the work
of constructing telephone lines, and
within the next few days this will be
started. Charlie, Tom AdvOsate.

Mr.. Miller Wins the Contest.

A good deal of interest was mani
tested in the oratoricsl contest last
Saturday night to decide who should
represent Shepherd College at the IN
ter-normal contest to be held at Graf
ton on April 29th. A large audi
ence was present in the auditorium
and the partisans of the several speak
ers applauded their favorites vigor-
ously and then most anxiously await
ed the result. There were four con-
testants-all of them members OF the
Senior Glass. They were J. Lester
Miller, Cleou Osbourn, Edgar W. Hal
leck and c. R. Foltz. The manu-
scripts of the orations had been pre-
viously Judged as to thought by three
critics, and now they were to beJudged
as to delivery. The judges OF deliv-
cry were Prof. Wright Denny, princi-
pal of the Charles Town Graded School;
Prof. Geo. W. Brindle, superintend-
ent OF the public schools OF Martins
burg; and Prot. Henry T. Mcdonald,
principal of Storer College at Harper's
Ferry. The four contestants acquit-
ted themselves most creditably, deliv-
ering their orations with earnest elo-
quence and holding the close atten.
ton OF the audience. During the
time the judges were occupied in max.
ing up their decision the Shepherd
College Orchestra rendered excellent
music. When the judges reappeared
they were introduced to the audience
by Principal Knutti, and Prof. Nc
Donald announced the decision. J.
Lester Miller won first place and c.
R. Foltz second. Mr.. Miller's friends
gave him an enthusiastic ovation over
his victory, and the audience general
ly agreed that he had fairly won.
These oratorical contests were orig
mated by A. ]. Wilkinson, of Grafton,
who gives prize of $25 in gold to
the winner and $40 in gold to the
second best. Each of the six normal
schools of the State takes part, and
much interest ls manifested The
contest will be held this year on April
29th in Grafton, Mr.. Wilkinsons
home town. Shepherd College has
heretofore been signally successful IN
these contests, and we hope Mr.. Mil
Ter will again bring back the honors.

1t Costs 1920 to Ring the Fire Bell.

Last Sunday afternoon FIVE young
men from Martinsburg drove to Shep-
bordstown. and on the way they drank
enough red liquor to make them quite
lively. They were strolling up street
about four o'clock when one of them,
who gave the name of Furtney, spied
the fire alarm bell. He gave the bell
a few taps and passed on. Sergeant
Shipley soon caught up with him and
placed him under arrest. Mayor Mil
Ter declined to hold trial on Sun
day, and held him to $25 bail for his
appearance. The party couldn't scrape
together that amount, SO they left a
gold watch as collateral. The mayor
announced that the fine would be
1920, and Mr.. Furtney looked sad.
As he drove out of town he gazed
feelingly upon the bell and remarked
that ringing bells in Shepherdstown
was an expensive amusement.

months, some say years, before had
planned out the battles that have just
taken place. He knew the ground they
were to be fought on, for his assistant,
