of =. Oscar Morasn.

Others win write of the activities
and accomplishments in life, and OF
the usefulness TO the community in
which our lifelong friend Francis
Oscar Morgan was held, but the writer
begs only a space to pay his tribute
of love and respect TO his memory and
TO voice his sorro,s that he is no more.
We have known him all of his life,
from his boyhood to his manhood and
through his maturer years. During
all these years of warm and personal
friendship and acquaintance we can
truly say of him, that
''His life was gentle; and the elements
So mixed in rim, that Nature might
stand up
And say 70 all the World, This was
man."
He was honest, just and good. His
life, his character, his heart and his
sympathies were such that seemed to
touch humanity and make lives hap
pier. He was charitable TO the poor
and especially TO the young who needed
assistance. On more than one occa-
sion VIC have seen him lend a lavish
hand to some poor young man, whilst
his cheerful eountenance beamed with
secret happiness. he rarely partici-
pated in politics and then only &
serve friends TO whom he was ever
true and loyal. he was, however.
deeply interested in all public affairs.
and when convinced that he could ado
something to the betterment and uplif,
OF the community, or to the allevia-
ton OF suffering humanity, he woul5
always be found enthusiastically in
the forefront of every movement look
ing to those ends.
The world, indeed is always better
for the lives of slich men as Mr.. Nor
gan, FOR the force of good example has
a beneficial effect at all times upon the
whole community. In his home life
We forbear to enter where all was pc .
feet and complete happiness. His de-
voted wife and her dear kind mother
whom ne loved so we'll, and his sweet
little idolized daughter will sadly
miss and be bereft OF his tender care
and protection. Would that we could
aSsuage their grief and heal their
bleeding wounds, but God alone can
and will in His own good time give
them comford and consolation.
Here bring your wounded hearts,
here tell your anguish
Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can
not heal.n
We have an abiding conviction that
the immortelles OF memory which fade
not in a day like the culled flowers
from the garden, will cluster around
his kind deeds and we'll spent life until
memory itself is no more. c.

The most enthusiastic gathering
Of farmers and business men ever held
in this county, assembled &C the Court
House on Saturday last to meet the
committee of the Legislature who came
to learn the needs of our section.
Those present from the Legislature
were Delegates Van Clagetf,
tChairman) n. Blandford, f.
Stone Posey and Washington Wiki
son and Senator Watkins.
The first speaker was Thomas Bond,
who owns land on the Patuxeut river
near Sotterly. he said the productive
ness and real value of the land in ST.
Mary's had decreased in the last 10 or
20 years and that while more money
is spent every year for roads, schools
ii Is becoming increasingly difficult
for farmers to pay their taxes. Trans
portation facilities are inadequate.
he declared. Fertilizer ordered by
farmers lies for weeks at the wharf
in Baltimore before being shipped and
tobacco often lies for weeks at the
landings before it is loaded on the
steamers for Baltimore he said.
DIR. Greenwich and Jos. II. Key, fol-
loved Mr.. Bond with more optimistic
speeches.
DR.. Greenwell said the people are
practicing better methods of farming
and as the result OF the work done BY
the Maryland Agricultural College
and the Uuited States Department Of
Agriculture the soil was being
brought TO higher staEe of produc-
tivity.
DIR. Greenwell also brought to the
attention of the committee, the condi-
tons under which our telephone sys-
ton was lboring owing to the storms
which make the rebuilding OF the line
necessary and knew of no better way
OF helping the county than by appro-
priating sum of money to take stock
in this company.
Four farmers Clubs have been or
ganized in the last two years and are
buying supplies of lime, fertilizer and
seeds together. DR.. Greenwell also
advocated some method of improving
the transportation facilities of the
county.
Mr.. Key, in pointing out the i'm
provement in the county, said two
men, living between Mechanicsyille
and Leonardtown, have recently sold
their farms-one for four times what
ne paid for it five years ago and the
other for six times what it cost 20
years ago.
Delegate Wilkinson spoke on his
proposed road bill for st. Mary's TO
provide money to improve a number
of lateral branches To- the State road,
connecting il with the important centres
OF population near the Potomac and
and Patuxent rivers.

Repfy to chaptIeo.

With pleasure / was reading your
paper,
But that pleasure was turned to woe
When my eyes fell on that little piece,
Composed, written and signed by
Chaptico;
His poetry was very bold,
And he should have taken more time
And not handled that awful word he
used,
To make his verses rhyme.
II could wish him q nice little wish
For all the world to-day,
IL would be that he'd never curse
The joys of life away;
The Boys did me up alright,
But they had due regard,
And never used that awful word,
That was used by that Chaptico
bard.
Now take my advice Mr.. Chaptico,
And the next time you go to write,
Don't use those awful words you'd use
II you were in a fight.
Keep in your heart the gift OF Love,
And all your days you will be glad.
For Love will lift your soul above
The things that make you mad
