Blue Ridge College to Remain Here.
The Trustees of Blue Ridge College
have decided to keep the school here pro-
vided the conditions become more toler-
able in relation to the Cement Plant. and
there should be no falling off in the
student body which will necessitate its
removal elsewhere, which will be some
where in this State.
While the reports which have been 60
ing the rounds for some time in the news
papers have been unauthorized and quite
conflicting, they were not entirely ground
less, as the institution was considering
move of this kind for some time.
With the steady growth of the College,
it's splendid faculty and encouraging
prospects for normal environments again,
the Trustees and Faculty have doubtless
acted wisely in their decision. Union

WILL Be A BIG Event.
Frederick Making Great Pre-
paratiOns for Templar COnclave

paratiOnS Tor Templar COnclaVe
Possibly never before in the history of
Frederick has there been an event as
much looked forward to as the 42nd an
nual conclave of the Grand Commandery,
Knights Templar, of Maryland, which
will be held in Frederick May 6-S next.
Sir Knights from all parts of the State
signified their intention of paying visit
to Frederick during the coming conclave,
and many will bring with them their
wives. To all the visitors, Frederick will
extend royal welcome and the keys of
the city will be turned over to them. The
Jacques de Molay Commandery, No. a,
will be hosts of the visiting Templars.
Every effort is being made to insure
the most successful affair of its kind
ever held in Frederick, an event long to
be remembered. Governor Goldsborough
will be the guest of honor on Tuesday OF
the conclave and will review the parade
with the Grand officers. The parade will
be one of the features of the conclave.
Houses and business places will be decor
ated and everything will be in gay dress
for the visitors.
The announcement of the Frederick
NeaUs that an aviation exhibition will be
held, under their auspices, at the Fair
Grounds on Tuesday and Wednesday,
May Z and 8, has added interest to the
meeting of the Templars. Notices of the
proposed flights will be sent to all the
members of the order in the State and
this is expected to attract many more to
Frederick. A demonstration of aerial
navigation is rare not only in this Sec
ton, but in all parts of the State. BY
attending the conclave the Sir Knights
will have chance to witness the exhibit
ton which is expected to attract great
crowds of people from all sections, who
will probably swarm in Frederick during
these two days.
