Our Navy Equal to ANY.

United States naval officers are not
willing to admit that the monster bat

etc, our ships equal anything afioat.

a bad stomach, disordered liver, weak

Confirmation Services.

Confirmation and Communion services
in the Lutheran church at Friendsville
last Sunday evening were interesting.
The class met at the parsonage and
marched into the church in a body ac-
companied by the pastor. The process
sional was played by Mrs. A. J. Masaw
in her usual skillful manner. The 4
lowing composed the class: Mabel no
Edith Rosger, William East, Leroy and
Milton Ramp, John Rumbaugh and Leo
nory Frazee. The class stood splen-
did examination on Luther's catechism.
before the congregation. The follow
ing were confirmed with the class: Mrs.
Chas, Rodgers and Miss Period Steele.
Mrs. Fred Kamp was received by trans
ter; four children were baptized. The
Sacrament of the Lords Supper was
administered to large number of.the
congregation. An interesting feature
OF the service was the chanting of the
Lords Prayer by the class. Albert Kolb
and Chas. East served as ushers.
April q, 8p. M, the special sermon
to the confirmation class by the pastor
will be delivered, at which time the GER
titicates of confirmation will be confer
red and the class will receive present
from the pastor. Next Lords Day

the ten commandments will be deliverd
at Friendsville. In the morning at 10,
at Cove, the 5th sermon on the ten
commandments will be preached. All
are welcome.

THE WASTE BASKET.

An exchange puts it this way:
If some day the newspaper man
should print the contents of his
waste basket there would probably
be riot. There would certainly
be trouble i'll many homes, arrests
in some directions, shot guns in
others, trouble all around. But
the patron never sees the waste
basket. He only glances at the
beautifully printed pages, COM
plains if one letter in fifty is upside
down, growls his disappointment
if one name in FIVE hundred has
happened to go wrong, kicks be-
cause his communication, signed
"Tax Payer" has been condensed
into respectable English, lrowns
because the editor didn't take his
advice about publicly warning his
neighbor against throwing more
melons in the ally, and is general
ly disgrunted, not so. much at what
he fails to find. He knows his
share of the waste basket, but if
he could have one look at the
contributions made to that recep-
tacle by his neighbors and friends,
he would thank God for the exis-
tence of man with sufficient in.
telligence and courage not to print

BOUGHT HOTEL COLUMBIA.
rr. Henson 3. Lewis Becomes owner
Of Large Hotel at the Park.

Mr.. Hanson B. Lewis, for several
years one of the leading citizens and
business men at Mountain Lake Park,
recently purchased from Judge Robert
r. Henderson, of Cumberland, Hotel
Columbia, one of the largest hostelries
in the Park.
The building was erected several
years ago and has been unoccupied
almost continuously since it's completion
owing to the lack of finances on the part
of the original owner
The property was lately sold at mort
gagee's sale, Judge Henderson becom-
ing the purchaser. Last year Mr.. Lewis
rented the property and made most
genial host for the many persons who
were his guests.
This year Mr. Lewis will put the prop
erty in thorough repair and make it
homelike for the many visitors who will
in all probability be at the Park this
summer. His many friends in Oakland
wish him success in his new undertaking

OLD WATERWAY OPEN FOR TRADE
Twelve Hundred Tons Of Coal the
First Shipment Made Out of
Cumberland.

The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal was
opened for traffic for the season of
1908 this week, the first shipment be-
ing 1900 tons of coal consigned to Will
Transport and Georgetown. 1t is stated
that the waterway never was in as fine
condition as it is at present. The boats
are nearly all new and spledidlv team
ed. The. towpath is in fine shape, hav-
ing been repaired from end to end. The
prospects for busy and profitable sea-
son have not been as propitious for
years. Under its present management
this famous old waterway is assuming
some of its old time thrift, a matter of
great consideration to Cumberland
which is its head, as we'll as to the MANY
towns through which it passes. The
cheapness of transportation by water is
becoming more and more recognized as
an important item among shippers, and
the day is not far distant, it is contend
ed, when the artificial waterways of the
country will assume the Importance
they once held before rapid transit by
rail took the place of the slow, but sure
and cheap delivery by water.
