ArbOr Day.

ArbOr Day.
BY proclamation of the Governor Fri
day, April 30, has been designated as
Arbor Day in Maryland this year. Special
significance is attached by making it also
Patrons Organization Day, following out
the suggestion made in the report of the
Commission on country life.
The relation of our forests to the gen.
eral welfare of the nation has led to
closer study of all of our natural re-
sources and their relation to the people
generally. This led indirectly to the ap-
pointment of commission on country
life. An investigation of the conditions
in the rural districts has demonstrated
that much may be accomplished in max
ing rural life more enjoyable by an or
ganization of the patrons in school COM
munities as suggested by the Governor.
The Arbor Day lecture combined with
the organization of the patrons, as has
been done in many communities should
make this years celebration a memora-
BILE one and mark definite advance step
in local progress.

Wants Single Roofs Prohibited

On Saturday, April 18th, fire occurred
in Taneytown which for while threat
ened to destroy the entire place, five
buildings, all covered with shingles, be-
ing on fire at the same time.
The Carroll Record, speaking of the
fire, says: "Now, let US have that ord
nance prohibiting single roofs, in the
future. 1t also seems to US that it ought
to include a provision that all existing
single roofs must be replaced by slate
or metal, within ten years. Almost as
important as roofs is chimney construc-
ton. They should be built according to
fixed legal specifications, as to size of
hue, soundness of base, ETC., and in
general way, the whole matter of build
ing construction should be regulated by
municipal ordinance, perhaps to the ex-
tent of requiring permits to build. We
have entirely too many frame single
rooted outbuildings, huddled together,
many of which are practically unnecess-
airy in town. There seems to be in
evidence the foolish idea that town
property should contain the same num-
Der of buildings as farm"
The above is very good suggestion,
and one that should be put in force in
| Thurmont. Included in the ordinance
should be clause demanding the tearing
down of any old stable or outbuilding
with single roof and practically unfit
