He Never Could Get Enough Courage
To Propose To The Girl.

In the February Woman's Home
Companion, Margaret E. Sangster,
writing in an article on ''SWeethearts
and Wives,,' tells about the timidity of
certain lovers, and makes the following
report of a Virginia man who cherish
ed passion for a woman of rare lowell
ness for thirty years. He made cali
upon her once a week. Mrs. Sangster
goes on to say:
promptly as the evening returned
he dsmounted from his horse at her
gate, and servant took charge of it
while, hat in hand, he advanced up the
long avenue and stepped upon the
white-pillared porch of the old colonia |
house. She was slim, slender girl
and he a gallant youth when their
courtship began. They were both gray
haired and middle-aged when it ended
in the sudden death of the lady. No
one ever understood why the two, who
were lover and sweetheart, did not be-
come husband and wife. The county
in which both were favorites never
ventured to question either about their
secret, nor was anyone surprised that
when the custom of years was ruthless
ly broken by death, the man lost inter-
est in things around him and rapidly
sank into melancholy old age"

Mr.. Roberts Writes
February 7, 1912.

FEBRUARY Z, 1S1L.
DR.. CHAS. A. WELLS,
State Senator of P. G. Co.,
Annapolis, Md.
DEAR DOCTOR:
l have seen in the recent issues of
the newspapers of our County your
article bearing on the salaries received
by the various County officials, and I
note that you have introduced bill re-
dueing the salary of the States At
torney for Prince Georges County from
$500 to $1,000. l also note that you
state that this change in salary will not
affect any official elected at the last
general election; and in view of that
fact of course this contemplated change,
if enacted into law, would not affect
the salary of the office during the
period for which l was elected; never
theless that article has no doubt led
some of the citizens of Prince Georges
County to believe that the salary of the
States Attorney is too large, hence
some people may believe that l am, as
States Attorney, receiving a larger
salary than the duties of the Office
justify; and | therefore submit to you
statement showing the salaries of the
States Attorneys of the various
Counties of the State; both under the
fee system and where they receive a
fixed salary.

Rail and River Good Roads Associa.
ton Holds Meeting

There was public meeting at Multi
kin's Station at o'clock on Saturday,
February 3rd, held under the auspices
of the Rail and River Good Road
Association which was called to order by
Mr.. Franklin Weems with w. Seaton
Belt acting as secretary.
Among those present were: E. P.
Gibbs, John M. Bowie, H. Clay Hopkins,
Case Boyce, G. C. D. Townshend
Richard Hardisty, Robert y. Nelson,
James G. Robinson, Edward J. Binger,
Harold Slingluff, Geo. w. Brooke, Louis
R. Wood, Herman Heuer, Henry G.
Heuer, H. F. Phipps, Leroy Hopkins,
f. F. Phipps, Jr., J. Newton White,
Samuel P. Hyatt, Charles j. White.
A prolonged and lively discussion
showed that most of those present were
unwilling, as yet, to approve of bond
issue by the county for the purpose of
road building and motion to endorse
such a proposition at this time was
voted down, the general sentiment
bring in favor of waiting for more
definite and further information as to
what would be done by the State !of
Maryland in the near future. 1t there
fore moved and carried; That it is the
sense of this meeting that it is the
duty of our present Legislature to APP
propriate at least IS, 900, 900 to complete
the present State Road System as laid
out by the State Road Commission in
1902"
The work of the Board of Road
Directors of Prince Georges County,
during the past year was then discuss
ed. Much interest seemed to center in
the question as to the right under the law
of each Road Director to plan and
carry out the road work in his own
district according to his own ideals
without interference from some per-
sumably higher authority and the right
under the law of the Road Engineer to
direct said road work beyond the limit
usually conceded to an engineer acting
under engagement in his professional
capacity and on account of technical
skill.
The opinion Of those present found
expression in the following motion
which was unanimously carried:
That, it is the sense of this meeting:
That, all the public roads in every part
of Prince Georges County be brought
promptly into equally serviceable con-
dition and so maintained in order to Sc
cure to each land owner and each
citizen his right to an equal benefit
therefrom.
That the first duty of the Board of
Road Directors is to straighten, widen,
grade, bridge and drain the existing
county roads and then to bring them
gradually to a higher plane of excellence
which we believe can be done best by
systematic use of the King road drag.
That all the funds now provided for
annually under our road law will be re-
quired to carry out this process of gen
eral road improvement and maintain
lance and therefore no part of same
should be used for building excessively
expensive stretches Of ide,i road.

tions of of the law, and have furnished
bail for their appearances for the action
of the Grand Jury far exceeds that
number; and as States Attorney am
required to investigate all of these
cases and to submit them all to the
Grand Jury, and to prepare indictments
against all of those who are indicted by
the Grand Jury, and to try the same.
Should as many violations of the law
be perpetrated from now until the con-
yening of the April Court in proportion
to the number of violations of law per-
petrated since the adjournment of the
October Court there will be probably a
hundred cases to be investigated and
considered by the Grand Jury, and it
might develop that like number of in
dictmants wodld have to be prepared
and trials conducted by me as States
Attorney.
1 feel it my duty, as States Attorney,
to advise and consult with the sheriff,
magistrates and the constables when
ever they see fit to request me to do SO,
relative to any violations of the law in
our County. So | think anyfair minded
man will agree with me that there is
more work than honor attached to the
Office of States Attorney for our
County, and that the salary of that
office is none too high.
If the salary of the Office of State
Attorney is to be changed, l think, in
justice and fairness to me and to those
who may be elected to the Office here
after, that the salary should be in
creased, and that the office should pay
a salary in comparison with the salaries
received by the States Attorneys of
the Counties in which about the same
amount of work is required to be done
by the States Attorneys that is re-
quired of the State s Attorney in Prince
Georges County.
Very Truly Yours,
CLEARANCE M. ROBERTS.

You will observe from the statement
that nine of the counties of the State
pay their States Attorney more than
the Office pays in Prince George
County, and think l can safely say
with the possible exception of two
Counties, the States Attorney Of Prince
Georges County has more work to do
than the States Attorney of any other
of the Counties of the State; this is
due largely to the fact that Prince
Georges County being adjacent to
Washington City the laws are very
often violated by residents of Washing
ton, and it is well known fact that .
certain element from Washington City
have been giving the County authorities
an unlimited amount of trouble, and
often times it becomes necessary to
ask for a requisition in order to get
parties out of the District of Columbia
to punish them for crimes committed
in Prince Georges County.
There are now more than twenty
prisoners confined in the Jail of the
County, and am advised that the num-

of the proceeds, 5000, reinvested in
the White property. OF the endowment
fund of $4,000 left by Mrs. Massie
the larger portion has been expended
in the Improvement of the White prop
erty for the hospital.
There yet remains many improve
ments OH the building for which no
contract has been let. The hardwood
floors, painting of the walls of the
building and furnishing the rooms will
RI lire a considerable sum and 1t is
| likely a campaign will be started soon
to raise sufficient amount to defray
such expenses.
The Hospital Circle has sum of
about 81, 600 and is considering which
work to undertake. However, it is au-
thoritatively stated that 1t may make
an effort to raise sufficient funds to
meet::the entire expense. Pat any rate,
in the event of their failure to do so
the local fraternal organizations and
private individuals will be asked to
furnish some of the rooms in the build
ing.
An endowment fund for the chill
drens' ward, it is said will be provid-
ed by one of our public spirited
women, who will contribute sum of
$500 for the purpose of maintaining this
department.
One objectionablessfe feature to the sur
roundings of the hospital is that the
! gr rounds are inadequatesand it has been
: suggested that an effort be made to
purchase sucffiient of the adjoining
property to furnish beautiful grounds.
The landscaping OF the present grounds
| will be in the hands Of competent
, man, who has generously rendered his
t services without cost.
2 With the proper encouragement t.
the movement and the united effort OF
, the citizens of Paris toward the pres
ent needs of the institution. the hus,
pital should be complied and turned
over to the trustees without any IN
e debtedness hanging over it, beginning
t it's career under the most favorable
auspices and remain the pride OF the
J community which has so long sought
= an institution of this character.
