professional men would refuse business
TO help their friends, especially as many
Of said friends never seem in the least
disposed 10 return the compliment or
even appreciate It.
Mr.. Thomas J. Peddicord left Oakland
yesterday morning for Annapolis where
he went to appear in the Court of APP
peals as attorney for Mr.. E. z. Tower,
Clerk of the Court for Garrett county
in the suit appealed from the Circuit
Court wherein Howard Clark, saloon
keeper, who was engaged in the liquor
business at or near Henry, was refused
a license to carry on his business by
Clerk Tower, the latter claiming that
under the Act passed at the recent ses-
sion of the Maryland Legislature pro-
hibiting the sale Of liquor at any point
within radius of five miles of Henry
Station, he had no power or authority
to grant such a license. The case will
be called tomorrow in the Court of APP
peals. Mr.. A. NJ. Cunningham, of Key
ser, and Messrs. Gilmor S. Hamill and
Edward H. Sincell, of Oakland, repre-
sent Clark.
Garrett County will have a represen-
tative in every department of Mary
land University in Baltimore this win
ter. Mr.. W. w. Grant, the gentlemanly
clerk who has rendered efficient service
in the Oakland Pharmacy for a couple
of years, surprised his friends the other
day when he announced his intention of
taking up the study of dentistry. With
this in view he left Oakland Sunday
evening for Baltimore and will become
a student in the dental department Of
the University. Mr.. Frank Weber,
who has completed his first year in the
medical department, and Mr.. George
w. Legge, Jr., who has completed his
first year in the law department of the
same school, also went to Baltimore,
the former on Friday and the latter on
Sunday afternoon. Mr.. Henry Grusen-
dorf, Of Hutton, will take up the study
of pharmacy in the same University,
expecting to leave here either this even
ing or tomorrow for Baltimore.
Senator w. McCulloh Brown was in
Oakland Tuesday where he received for
exhibition purposes at the annual meet
ing Of the Maryland Horticultural So
ciety to be held in Baltimore on Deem
Der 4th and 9Th, apples and other fruit
grown by some Of our local agricultural
lists. Mr. Brown is extremely anxious
to have large number of exhibits from
Garrett county, especially apples. This
fruit has been almost an entire failure
in other sections of Maryland and if cur
fruit growers will take an interest in
making good exhibits at the coming
meeting Of the Society they will stand
a splendid chance Of capturing all on
nearly all the prizes offered for first
class exhibits Of apples. The exhibits
must consist Of no less than seven per
feet specimens Of each variety and may
be left at this Office pending another
visit OF Mr.. Brown TO Oakland which
will occur within the next week or ten
days when he will forward the fruit to
Baltimore to be placed in cold storage
until the meeting of the Society.
We are not given TO Boosting but We
are proud of the farmer boys of this
vicinity. They are, with rare excep-
tons, healthy, intelligent and happy
class of young men. We feel like tax
ing our hat clear off when we meet them
upon our streets, and no class is more
welcomed to our office. Too many bows
leave the farm where they would have
made substantial and good citizens, and
90 to the city where only one in a thou
sand succeed in life's battle. There are
farmers who fairly drive their BOYS
away. There is no excuse for this. The
farmer boy is entitled to his vacations,
to several relaXations, his visits to the
city, good books, magazines and his
home paper. To the observing one it is
plain to be seen that the old farm is the
best place in the world for the average
young man and never fails to bring q
happier and more useful life than The
city. Young men, you who till the sol
and earn your bread by the sweat OF
your brow, we are proud of you; our
latchsring is always out to you and YOU
will always have a friend in this paper.
Come to see US and give US the news
from your neighborhood.
