Star-Spangled Banner Society.

The Star-Spangled Banner Society
of Prince Georges County met at the
Court House on Friday for the purpose
of affecting permanent organization,
the promoters of the Society desiring
to give those interested in its objects
an opportunity to voice their senti-
ments in regard thereto and the final
selection of officers.
Upon unanimous vote the temporary
organization was made permanent.
Reports Of the work already accom-
plished, as we'll as that planned for the
future were read and endorsed.
1t was voted that $500 of the Socie-
TVS funds be expended for the restor-
alton of Dr. Beanes' tomb and the i'm
provement of its surroundings.
In order to. secure the necessary
funds to defray the expenses connect
ed with the exercises to be held on
September 8, subscription list was
started which met with a substantial
response, and it is confidently expected
the amount will be increased by the
public and by the banks in the county,
the directors of several having signifi-
ed their intention of favoring such a
contribution.
A tentative program of the exercises
was submitted, showing that the occa-
sion will bring to our town distinguish
ed visitors and speakers well known
throughout the State and nation.
The Society has been given cannon,
used on a privateersman during the
war of 1912, which will be mounted by
the side of DIR. Beanes' grave.

A Tardy Recognition

With no little surprise we note, the
failure of either of our county papers
to mention the delightful enter tainment
given by the students of Baden High
School, under the direction of Mrs. W.
B. Early, at the Parish Hall on June
22nd.
After being so extensively advertised,
the notice appearing in at least three
issues of the paper before the event, it
might appear to some who were not able
to attend, that it was not worth men,
tioning. Those who were present, how
ever, land the hall was packed to the
door can testify to the contrary.
This article is not intended to give
the program in detail, but to put before
the public few parts which will speak
for themselves.
The Floral Parade in "Midsum mer
Eve," was composed absolutely by
Mrs. Early. and every fancy step and
action of the Elves. The pantomine by
the Will of the Wisps. was also her
own composition; she simply took the
outlines of the Can tata. Every child and
girl in it deserved credit owing to the
fact that not third of them have any
knowledge of music, and judging from
the excellent time they kept with the
music the audience would have thought
they had all studied music.
This goes to show the wonderful
work Mrs. Early can do, also her ability
