AS the train steams slowly into tn,
station and a stranger aights, the first
picture which presents It's elf, is the vii
lage proper to the left, scattered farm
houses along the road to the right, anG
an impemctrable chain Of mountains which
stretch in majestic grandeur from the
north to the south, and better known
throughout the United States as part OF
the Blue Ridge.
The stranger pauSes a moment to watch
the train as it wends its way to points
higher up and is fascinated not only by
the train as it twists and turns and grad
ually disappears to the north through
SubjIk.sv,ilc Gap, but by the beautiful
location Of the village.
Among the good features, the most
prominent are, the water, the altitude
and the scenery. Hospitality is in evil
dence everywhere and at Mr.. Ramsburg S
where the stranger is sojourning, the
host and hostess are equally gracious and
it would be needless for him to say That
his stay has been more than pleasant
And last but not least let him mention
the ladies of Thurmont who are also one
of the excellent factors in the village to
which the stranger is indebted and in
which he takes this way to thank them
for their kindness.

Club

A regular meeting of the Commercial
Club was held Tuesday evening instead
of Wednesday, the usual time. The
change was made owing to the urgency
of some. of the business under consider
alton. A number of matters of special
importance were considered. of which q
more detailed account is given else
where.
There was a large attendance of men,
bers present and the meeting was enthu-
siastic. A letter was read from the.
Fargo Commercial Club in regard to
advertising the state of North Dakota.
The plan of that organization is for all
the Commercial Clubs to act together in
this matter instead of each club trying
to do something with only little money
to put into it and as a result not get
anything that is really satisfactory. The
letter urges all the clubs t unite and ask
the legislature to appropriate a sum. the
amount to be designated later, for the
purpose of getting out literature to adj
vertize this state. Canada has recently
spent nearly half a million dollars in
booming the western part of that country
and the Minnesota legislature has appro-
priated a number of thousands Of dollars
for the same purpose in that state.
The Dickinson Commercial Club has
had the matter of getting out adver-
tizing for this city under consideration
for some time. A committee has been
appointed to look up the subject. M.
L. Ayers W as the only member present
and W. R. Everett being the chairman,
he made no official report, merely stating
that the committee had met and discussed
the matter, arriving at the conclusion
that it would take several hundred dol
lars to do anything that would be salts
factory.
Another letter. in relation to getting
out a map of Stark county, was read
No action was taken in either matter
In relation to changing the stree
names it was reported that the Soutl
Side Commercial Club had appointed
committee but no meeting of the join
committee had yet been held.
The most Important matters taken VI
were in relation to the report of Engi
neer Geo. M. Huss on the proposed rail
road and the movements Of c. F. Merr!
of this city, a noted confidence man, j
regard to this railroad. "A detailed &C
count Of both matters appears in anothe
column. The railroad question was lei
in the hands Of the club committee Q
railroads. The session was heated 9
times and it wa fully two hours befos
adjomnment was taken.
