Dramatic Recital.

Thurmont was given quite treat last
Friday evening in the dramatic recital
by Mr. Robert Downing and his able as
sstants.
The audience. while not as large as the
occasion deserved, was very appreciative
and seemed to enjoy each number as it
was presented "Caparisons are odious, "
according to Miss Malaprop, and where
all played their respective roles so well
it would be invidious to single out any
one for special praise. Suffice to say
that the program as a whole was well
rendered and very entertaining. Come
again friends.

Menu Ease"
Work Shoes

In all our shoe selling experience We
never saw an everyday shoe that COM
pared with Menu ease" in any way.
The longer we sell them and the more
we learn about them, the better we like
them.
Its toughness and strength will surprise
you and you'll say its the best leather
you ever saw for everyday shoes because
its as soft and pliable as glove, even
after months of the hardest service. Ask
your neighbor, he wears them.
Read the following testimonial, we
have lots of them:
Woodsboro, Nd, July II, 1911.
The pair of Menu Ease" shoes pur-
chased of you last August have given en-
tire satisfaction. Began wearing them at
once, and wore them right along until
about December first when they were
changed for felts. About the LIST of March
again put on the shoes and still wear
them Have had them half soled twice
and tapped once, also new heels The
uppers are still good and soft and am just
now trying to decide if they will not be
worth another pair of soles.

Get Your Ticket And Take Il "Drram
Of Fairyland.
The cantata entitled "A Dream Of
Fairyland' was given in the Thurmont
Town Hall, about eighteen years ago by
home talent to a crowded house, and at
the request of the public was repeated,
and met with great success. The cast
consists of about 20 children. Two or
phans are hunting Fairyland. Both the
good and evil fairies try to persuade
them to join their respective bands, and
after much hesitancy they go to the good
fairies only to be persuaded later by the
fairies to join their ranks. They are I'M
happy with the evil fairies, and go back
to the good fairies. The evil fairies are
also won over and in the end all join in a
final goodnight chorus. The cantata is
full of bright, catchy music, solos and
recitatiOns.
This same cantata will be given in the
Town Hall, Thursday evening, August
9Th, by % of our home children. Be sure
and see it.

A Statue That Never Was Built.

Mount Athos in Turkey was the spot
contemplated by a sculptor for the
most imposing monument that man had
ever had. The sculptor, Dinocrates.
offered to cut the huge mountain mass
into the form of statue of Alexander
which should hold city in the left
hand aud in the right basin to re
ceive all the waters that flowed from
the mountain. Alexander was much
taken by the plan, but rejected 1t for
the practical reason that there was
not food enough In the district to feed
the inhabitants of the proposed town.
So the canal cut by Nerxes to enable
the ships to escape sailing round the
mountain remained the greatest enter
prise ever achieved there.

The Baseball Bug
L. P. Dawes, N. D. Prop.

The baseball bugs the first we
note,
A bug Of tough and brazen throat,
Whose ordinary tone of speech
Is half a roar and half screech.
On bieactcrs he is mostly found,
Creating divers kind of sound,
Like '>On you robber! Oh you
chump,
Whoever chose you for an imp?
Yah. slide you Hogan, That's
the style,
What. Out? He made it by a
mile! -.
Aw, get an umpire, He's too
raw.
Amt he the worst you ever saw?
The baseball bug when he's at
home
Has basebatlitis in his dome.
He reads the dope, he keeps the
score,
At office, restaurant and store.
He talks the game with wisdom
deep.
He dreams and talks it in his
sleep,
You we'll may smile with COM
fort snug
If you are not baseball bug.
