The Baltimore STIR of recent date
pays well-merited tribute to one of
Cumberland's most enterprising citizens
i'll the following paragraph:
Mr. Thomas Footer, of Cumberland, is
president and founder of the Footcr Dye
Works, the largest dyelng and dry cleaning
establishment on the American continent,
an industry he built up by himself from a
little 10 by 12-foot room business He has
now the fourth largest plant of the kind in
the world and has just purchased an addI
tional tract of land that will give him space
to more than double his plant. He has four
branch stores i'll Baltimore, one in Wash
ington. one in New York, more than a
dozen IN the vicinity of Pttsburg and
Wheeling and is represented IN all the towns
of Maryland. He has been a member of the
Cumberland city council, president of the
Cumberland Board of Trade, and is active
in the Citys many interests. now being a
member of the recently appointed charter
commission.
Well and truly stated. and i'll order to
"localize' it the JOURNAL will add, III
cidentally, that in Frostburg the Dye
Works are represented by I. S. Cooper,
and reports from patrons are reflective
of complete popular satisfaction.

the same old cordiality, but she can t
help showing that she has been away
and met expectations.
Much is heard of the evidences of
prosperity" but wait until the pros

Ethics of the Case.

While the town was probably not
legally bound to indemnify eX-pOliceman
Bahen for costs incurred in defending a
suit as trustee of one of the towns club
lets, it is we'll that the authority reposed
in the clublet be maintained in full viz
tue and final force.
\ jury held this view, and judge de-
cllned to intervene; then why should
not the town assume a liability born in
its defence:
BY this token offenders are notified to
refrain from suing for such cause here
after either the town or its servants.
For of truth it may be imperatively
stated that as was "a soldier of the
legion without gun, so is policeman
without clublet.
