A MIGHTY DRY SEASON.

Here, in the very mild and hollow
as 1t were, of the winter, the serious
purpose Of the season still seems OBJ
liviscated," remarked our venerable
contemporary, the Springfield Republi-
can. Obliviscated? We should say So!
Not only that, but obnubilated, obum-
brated. obtenebrated and obfuscated.
The season has concealed its purpose
with perfect art. No one knows whittier
we are drifting. AS the Republican
well observes, After a summer of dry
ness and sweetness-light and grace
masking sad disregard of their rivals,
the 'gloom Of the skies and the light
nings and there followed the
lowest of autumns, and yet so dry :"
Yes, that's it! 1t was the same all
through the South. The summer was
sweet, but there We're lightnings and
gloom, and legislatures, and then the
whole country seemed to 90 dry.
Up Springfield way, it appears, 1.-THE
moist rushing clouds, tawny tinted, and
lighted by breaking prisms of sunlight,
were such as. were it a month later,
would lead one to the sunny banks of
brooks on the mountains TO find hepati-
cas-, and bring the bluebirds to the
roadside thickets." Well, it's nearly
the same down in Virginia and Tennes-
see. The clouds were lighted by sun
light, just the same, and as they rushed
by they seemed to lead the thirsty way
farer to sunny mountain stills to find
hectic inspira son, and bring Joy riders
to roadside taverns.
But it was dry, very dry, both for
b'uebirds and for men, ut has been
thought by many that starvation was a
stimulant," observes the Springfield
nature-lover, but he concludes that this
theory IS wrong: starvation ism good
for any grade of life, neither vegetable
nor animal" That's true; it is a poor
stimulant.

WAR CLAIMS ALLOWED.
Harmon w. HeSen Will ReCieye So, 035
and William Moody $500.

In the United States Senate last Friday
the Court of Claims bill carrying an
appropriation of more than two millions
of dollars, passed that branch Of the
National Congress and was immediate
ly transmitted to the House for concur
renee in amendments made to the bill
by the Senate, the measure having
passed the House some time ago.
The bill is of interest to some local
people as it provides for the payment
of two War claims to Garrett countians.
the parties being Messrs. Harmon w.
Hesen of Oakland, and William Moody,
of Bloomington. The original claim of
Mr.. Hesen amounted to nearly S., 900
for blacksmithing done for the Union
forces while the soldiers were in Oak
land or passing through. The Court of
Claims, however, scaled the bill down to
50, 035 which amount Mr.. Hesen will
rtly receive.
Mr.. Moodv's claim amounting to about
$500 was for services rendered as post
master during the war.

EFFORTS To STAMP OUT
THE WHITE PLAGUE
To Urge Registration Of Cases and
Distinction of Homes of Afflicted.

The Maryland Association. for the
Prevention and Relief of tuberculosis
has organized systematic campaign in
the counties of the state for the pur-
pose of awakening an interest in the
work. Already meetings have been
held in WicomicO, Talbot. Cecil and
Worcester counties. At Princess Anne
tuberculosis exhibit has been placed
in the courthouse.
Secretary Price states that Somerset,
St. Mary's and Calvert counties were
more in need of sanitary improvement
than any others in the state. In Somer-
set little or no attention has been paid
to the law requiring the registration of
tuberculosis cases and the dislnfection
of houses in which diseased persons liv-
ed. The death rate here for tuberculo-
sis from March 81 to January of this
year was 22.24 percent, on basis of
10, 900 inhabitants. This is only exceed
ed by the States of California and Colo
RADIO, where consumptives go to regain
health. The report shows that of the
30 physicians in the county only regis
tered cases, and that there were disin-
fected only II of the 81 houses in which
deaths occurred.
The last legislature passed law
making it mandatory on physicians and
hf.a do e met To i-{n
and on the county authorities to disin-
feet. The act was hardly stringent
enough to cover the registration pro-
visions, and it will be improved at the
next session. But the County Commits
sioners will have to be more yigilant.
Recently they were warned by the state
board that they would be mandamused
if they fail to comply with the law.
1t is the purpose of the association,
acting i'll conjunction with the state
health board, to visit every Eastern
Shore and Southern Maryland county
with the view of avail ening the people
+ to their danger. The greater percent
age of cases are reported from those
counties having a large negro popula-
ton, the colored people failing to pay
proper attention to the sanitary sur
roundings.
Singularly enough, Garrett is also
numbered among the counties in which
the safeguards against disease are in
sufficient 1t is not tuberculosis here,
but typhoid and kindred troubles. The
state board intends to pay some atten-
ton to this county.

Revival heeting Still in Progress

The revival at st, Paul's M. E. church.
which begun several weeks ago under
the pastorate of Rev. j. B. Workman,
is still in progress. So far two CONVEX
sions have resulted with number of
seekers at the altar The attendance
has not been large at any time but those
who are regular attendants at the night

common people have always been be-
hind you in your fight for square deal,
and the common people are still behind
you in your fight with Congress.
One of the interesting facts in con-
nection with the attack on the Presi-
dent by Representative Willett of New
York was that this attack was made on
the same day the President wrote his
letter hOnoring Gen. Robert E. Lee.
The result is that the President has re-
ceived numerous letters from Confed-
crate We terans strongly unfolding him.
Anyone who has the opportunity to
look over the Presidents letters from
the public will find them Illuminating as
well as entertaining, and will become
skeptical of any statements that the

suggestions on the subject of Hardness.
Factoring in Algebra by Mr.. A.
W. Dewitt, was well handled by that
able teacher. Constant drill and rope
tition until the underlying principles
were mastered was his main thought
conveyed to the teachers.
Many good questions were asked and
points gained by means of the Question
Box, conducted by Misses Zaidee
Browning and Elizabeth Leary.
Miss Orley Durham gave an oral les
son in Geography with her class. She
selected the New England states for
her subject, and with an outline map
on the board the pupils were able to
point out the important cities, rivers,
etc, telling each states chief produc-
tons and occupations, how and when
they were settled, making a general
review of the whole group Of states.
Miss Marion Leary made few re.
marks on reviews and examinations In
NJ tam ollC gave oOillS VI HeT OWN
methods of reviewing lessons.
The meeting closed with several re-
marks and announcements by Supt. f..
A. Browning, which were of interest,
not only to the teachers present, but to
all teachers in the county. He asked
for opinions and expressions from the
teachers on summer schools and insti-
tutes. He also discussed the teachers
examination on the course of study for
the schools of Maryland, suggesting
June 28th as a suitable time for holding
such an examination. He further said
that more blackboards and tablets would
be furnished the schools next year. BY
this he conveyed the idea that tablet
and pencil with proper instruction would
be of more use to the children than so
many books. He also appealed to the
teachers to do their part in welcoming
the State Teachers Association to Mt.
Lake Park next June.
Our teachers are to be commende d
for their interest and enthusiasm dis
played at these local Institutes and for
their efforts in raising the standard of
education in Garrett county.

LOCAL TEACHERS INSTITUTE
Held in Oakland Saturday Which
Was Largely Attended.

A local teachers institute was held
last Saturday, Jan. Both, in the High
School building with large number of
teachers, patrons and pupils present.
Mr.. H. A. Loraditch, PRESIDENT of the
Garrett County Teachers Association,
presided.
The morning session opened with a
song, Maryland, My Maryland" fol-
lowed by responsive scripture reading
led by Principal U. G. Palmer. Mr.. w.
E. Bishoff made everybody feel welcome
in short address, which was heartily
responded to by Mr.. A. W. Dewitt, of
Deer Park.
The real work of the institute was be-
gun by Miss Jennie Miller, giving a
model lesson in primary reading with
her class. Great skill was displayed on
the part of Miss Miller il conducting
this lesson, and too much cannot be said
in favor of her methods and the results
she obtained. This being only a prep
aration lesson the children were |. d by
concert reading to get the thoughts eX-
pressed and also to become familiar with
/ t e words so that they could read at
| sight. The regular lesson would be in
dividual sightreading by the pupils.
Another model lesson was given by
Miss Olive Dewitt and her pupils in
primary numbers, in which Miss Dewitt
showed that by using numbers concrete
ly the children could be taught the com
binations readily, using sticks, boxes,
pieces of crayon, etc. These model
lessons given by the teachers Illustrated
actual school work and gave the OBJ
| server, in a few minutes, what he could
not have gained from books in a much
longer time.
A chorus by number of Miss Miller S
pupils was next on the program
Mr.. Palmer proved to be master of
his subject, THE Globe and Its Uses. 3"
By using two globes, carrying one, rep
resenting the earth, around the other,
representing the sun, to show he
change of seasons. Other practical
suggestions We're also given. The ap-
proach of the noon hour brought this
very interesting subject to close.
At | 80 p. m. work of the institute
was again taken up. After the song,
America" Miss Jessie Conneway, in
very pleasing manner discussed Or
biography, revealing much thought on
the part of the speaker.
Miss Annie DeBerry opened the sub
ject of mental arithmetic, which dis
cussion was entered into by Messrs. A.
W. Dewitt, Fred Smith, U. G. Palmer
and E. A. Browning.
A vocal solo was rendered by Mi S
Orpah Ashby, a member of the Senior
Glass Of the High School, which every
one seemed to enjoy. Miss Marguerite
Hart gave recitation. This young lady
not only recited well, but displayed
some talent along that line. The audi
ence was then treated to song by sew
eral High School girls.
Miss Cora Weimer gave some good
