MEDAL ORATORICAL CONTESTS.
Are Won By Miss Mary Hay and Mr..
LaMOtte Smith.

The two w. G. r. u. medal contests
held in the High School Auditorium
Tuesday evening, March were most
successful. Twelve pupils OF the
High School took part in the con-
tests and they recited 10 well that
the judges found it very difficult to
decide which two won the medals.
Miss Nettie Whitmore presided, and
iii very graceful address explained
that these contests are held under the
auspices of the M. @. q. VI. for the
purpose of creating temperance SEN
timent and developing oratorical tall
ent; that some Of the selections were
favorable to woman's suffrage also,
because, the National w. o. It. u. has
endorsed the suffrage movement be-
lieving that the ballot in the hands Of
women means prohibition for our
land. All the selections given were
taken from the W. @. a. U. medal
contest books.
The auditorium was filed and the
receipts were such that a nice sum
was realized, $17 Of which goes to the
library fund Of the High School The
splendid work of the contestants
showed hard work Oh their part and
was evidence Of their splendid train
ing The following ladies coached
them in oratory: Misses M. Whit
more, Eva Rinker, Eva and LaRue
Herr The music furnished by the
Seminary Octette Was thoroughly en-
joyed a. was evidenced by the many
encores. The judges were DR.. III. ID.
Feeman, of the Seminary Faculty;
Mrs Clarence Morton, Adrian, Mich;
and Mr.. @. o. Clemson, Of the Car
roll county Bar. The successful ones

ifNO POLITICS IN CARROLL COUE-

80 Says Mr. BlOcher in "a Letter Pub
ished in The Baltimore Sun.

no the Editor of The Sun-Sir:
Looking over your valuable copy Of
The Sun today, I notice 'G. F. Bal
timore, March p" says keep schools
out Of politics." and then goes on
to explain how some certain COM
missioner of Baltimore county was
caring for all OF his relatives.
know nothing about Baltimore coun-
ty or the actions Of commissioners
in caring for their relatives. He
tells us politician with pull was
appointed" He has not told us
whether the commissioner was a Re
publican or a Democrat. Now, then,
/ do think he has opened the way for
every county Of the State OF Mary
land to be heard from through the
columns of The Sun.
4 will start out by saying that A do
know that every member Of the Car
roll County School Board will tell
you the truth, and tell you that for
the past ~ years politics has never
been known in our board.
When teacher applies the board
wants to know whether he OF she il
fitted to fill the position. Politics or
relationship never enters into the
conversation. When 1--we appoint
trustees we look for good patrons Of
school, living near to the school.
Politics il never mentioned.
Now, il it OF il 1T not the intention
of Governor Goldsborough, who owes
his election to the Democrats of
Maryland, to GUST all the Democratic
commissioners and put in his Repub-
lican friends, in order to place the
public schools of Maryland, in the
hands Of Republican politicians?

URGE LINCOLN HIGHWAY
MARYLAND CONGRESSKEN ADVOCATE
TIT BEFORE HOUSE COMMITTEE.

The House Committee On the Tt
brary gave hearing on last Tuesday
on the BorIand bill to empower the
Lincoln Memorial Commission to se-
cure plans and designs for highway
in honor of Abraham Lincoln from
Washington to the battle field of
Gettysburg. Representatives Talbot
and Lewis, of Maryland, and Lafean,
of Pennsylvania, were among the
speakers, all advocating the PROPOSE
ton. Former Governor Warfield
was on hand to give his support, but
the committee did not reach him be-
fore the noon hour, and he had to
return to Baltimore to keep an en-
gagement without speaking. Other
Marylanders on hand were II. X.
Stabler, w. M Fenell, Charles S.
Mum, Albert Stabler, IT, M. Martin,
Arthur Stabler and r.. L- Hewett.
Mr.. Talbot opened the hearing and
Mr.. Lewis closed it. Both urged the
adoption Of the bill, arguing that a
great highway from Washington to
Gettysburg would be a most fitting
memorial to Lincoln Generals
Thomas s. Hopkins and John @.
Black, of the Grand Army, Of the
Republic, also advocated the bill
strongly. General Black told the
committee that it was the dream of
the Grand Army of the Republic ITO
see a highway from Washington to
Gettysburg. He declared it would be
only a question Of time when the
highway, if built, would b. extend
ed to Richmond.
George G. Diehl, chairman, Of the
good roads board of the American
Automobile Association, said:
II have carefully gone into the
subject of the cost of construction,
and T estimate the cost of a 40-foot
road, with a 24-foot strip of macad-
am, treated with a bituminous binder,
at $4,000 a mile. This would make
the cost Of the 72-mile stretch about
$1,500,000, and the cost of mainten-
ance would b. $3.50 a mile, including
the renewal Of the surface Of the
road every 10 years"
Mr.. Lafean, who represents the
Gettysburg district in Congress, de-
cIared that his people favored the
highway.
THE Government has spent about
S11, 100000 to beautify Gettysburg and
we have no quick way to get there
from the national capital. All tour
lists to our country have two places
on their program, Washington and
Gettysburg, and it requires two days
to make the round trip between the
two points. I believe that the peo-
pie along the way world giEa-a right
OF way to the Government
Logan Waller Page, chief of the
Bureau of Good Roads, said that it
should not cost more than $4,000 a
mile to make a good road
