Collection of Native
Woods in Maryland.

Maryland has a great variety of tree
species due to the differences in climate,
soil and elevation in different parts of
the State. 1t is largely due to this
fact that the State Forester Of Mary
land, Mr.. F. w. Besley, has been
commissioned by the United States
Forest Service to collect in the state
the different native woods to be used
at the Wood Products Laboratory of
the Forest Service at Madison, Wis
%consin, which was opened on June
4th. The specimens consist of samples
of each of the native trees to be ex-
hibited in full size logs four feet long.
The first consignment of thirty-five
species was shipped from Brandywine
last week. These woods were collected
in the vicinity of Brandywine and repre-
sent all of the native species of COM
mercial Importance. MIR. Besley will
visit other sections of the State and
complete his collection during the
summer. In addition to the collection
for the forest Service, he is also col
lecting and preparing for exhibition
purposes at the State Agricultural
College and at the Office of the State
Board of Forestry at the Johns Hop
kins University duplicate sets. When
complete this will be the most extern
sive collection of native woods of
Maryland that has eve been brought
together. There is probably no section
in the State where such a large variety
of species are found as in Prince
Georges County. and it was due to
this fact Mr.. Besley selected the vicin-
ity Of Brandywine as the first point
for making the. collection Of woods.
The collection made at B%randywine
consists of eleven different oaks, three
different pines, three different hickor-
les, black walnut, chestnut. cedar,
sassafras, wild cherry, yellow poplar,
beech, red mulberry, holly, black
locust, blue beech. red gum, black
gum, dogwood, persimmon, red birch,
sweet magnolia and white willow.

Closing Exercises

The closing exercises of Marlboro
High School were held in the school
building Monday evening, June goth,
in the presence of an enthusiastic aud
fence. and were presided over by the
Principal. The schoolrooms were mod
estly but tastefully dressed for the oc-
casion, and presented a cheerful ap-
p~earance.
The woman suffrage debate, which
make q great hit and aroused un-
bounded enthusiasm, was easily the
feature of the exercises. The question
under discussion was, Resolved, that
women should have the ballot" The
affirmative speakers were Misses Mel
lie Humphrey and Mary Wyvill. Those
holding the negative side were Misses
Edith Grant and Cornelia Bowie. 1t is
but due to justice to say that the
speakers really distinguished them
selves by their forceful agreements.
They acquitted themselves with sur
prising ability, and observant minds
did not fail to note that the papers
read were models of good English com
position. Miss Humphrey surprised
her friends by the strength she de.
veloped in rebuttal, and Miss Wyvil
maintained the reputation she has sc
Justly won as a speaker of force. The
question was decided in the affirmative.
Miss Anna Coale's recitation, "The
Legend of the Organ Builder" was
very favorably received; and the Leaf
from The Register, which is published
BIZ weekly by the High School Literary
Society. aud edited by Miss Ada Hill
proved highly enjoyable.
Mr.. NJ. Hampton Nagruder was thu
orator for the occasion. and delivered
au able address. He spoke entertain
ingly and forcibly, and made a profound
impression on the student body by hi
timely remarks.

side that the trouble originates. Cor

square deal, but according to all ac-
counts, both men got the forty per

guaranteed
Stories of door keepers holding on
to some OF the cash have gone the
rounds. and there may be some truth
in the matter. but judging from the
amount of cash that Cordell and
Cornyn got. there can not have been
much of leakage.
Another contest between the two
men who put up such good fight
last week would be an interesting
event, and should draw well. Cor
dell now claims that he was tired
before the go started, and that he
had too much work to do in connec'
