Large Crowd Enjoy Supper
Along Mountain Stream.

Quite a representative gathering of
Thurmonters journeyed to Sandy Hole
Monday afternoon. Armed with baskets,
! boxes. buckets and every other known
receptacle for holding good things to eat

campfire was lighted, and soon the fra
grant aroma of coffee peryaded the pic
turesque surroundings of this delightful
woodland dell.
The time would fail US to tell of the
many delicacies provided and enjoyed by
those present. Not the least among
them wasgreen corn roastedlndian fash
ion in the husk, which proved by its
sweetness and flavor that the Red men
knew thing or Swo about preparing
corn. The principal business of the day
--supper-being disposed of. the party
enjoyed the beauties Of the sunset and
afterglow, and watched the Moon and
Venus vie with each other in illuminat-
ing the western sky.
Some of the party were tempted to
linger after dusk and fire of pine knots
was lighted. which cast its ruddy glow
over the stream and hills. Conversation,
singing and recitations served to while
away the hours until, reluctantly, the
party wendell its way homeward by the
light of the crescent moon, taking with
them memories of very delightful even
ing.
About fifty people were present, in

guests Of the Misses Zimmerman.

Direct Primary Expensive
Nomination on August 20 Will
Cost Nearly $4,000.


When the committee Of Democratic
lawyers confers with Attorney General
Isaac Lobe Straus on Wednesday on the
Lee Primary Election Law, with view
of disentangling it's knots and to issuing
instructions to election supervisors, they
will not consider one phase of the act,
says the Baltimore American. That
phase is it's expense.
Its costs to Baltimore and counties will
be in the neighborhood Of $4,000, to be
borne by the taxpayers. In former years
in the counties the primaries were held
without calls upon the public treasury.
The estimated expense will be tighten
ed somewhat by the compulsory contri-
buttons of candidates. The total of these
contributions will not much more than
meet the expenses incidental to che pri.
mary, not the known expenses, which
include the pay of the judges and clerks
and rent of polling places. In addition
there will heavy advertising and printing.
bills. Over 10000 envelopes will have
to be provided for voters in the counties
in which to deposit their ballots.
The cost of the primary will also fall
heavily upon the candidates. Candidates
who win must then face another expen-
sive campaign. Each candidate for gov
ernor, comptroller and attorney general
will have to deposit $25 in each county
and in each of the four legislative dis
tricts of Baltimore, total of $685. for
each candidate. Formerly any man, rich
or poor, could be candidate for govern
or without the compulsory cost of cent.
Here is the estimated cost of the direct
primary in Baltimore and in each county,
placing the cost of the election at $50
for each precinct in Baltimore and $35 for
a. oh vntin.r pl,na in tha savaral committees.
