Frederick City Expands o Acres

Frederick is. ten acres larger. This is
BY reason of the fact that Delegate

legislature, was signed by the Governor.

to Frederick's territory is in the prop
erty of the Swastika Realty Com

is being developed.
Before the law was enacted the limits
OF Frederick city took in about wo-thirds
OF the property. The development COW
ers about 80 acoes, so that the city ex-
tended over about 20 acres. leaving 10
acres beyond the border limits. The
property extends west to the lands of
John W. Grove, or to the lane on the
Fourth street pike.
The city has an agreement with the
Swastika Realty Company in regard to
street Improvements, extension of the
water mains and street lights, and the law

Baby Sent by Parcel Post.

Rural Mail Carrier B. H. Knepper
hauled Monday I4-pound baby from
Clearspring, Washington county, where
the infant had been staying, to the home
OF It's mother, in Indian Springs, 10 miles
distant, by parcel post.
The child's grandmother had been
caring for it, and the mother, anxious to
see her babe, telephoned her mother to
send It home. The grandmother who
was sick and could not make the trip.
thought of the parcel post, which solved
the problem.
The. grandmother tagged the baby
around the neck and the postage stamps
were stuck on its brow.
The Io-mile trip was made without the
baby, which slept nearly all the way, Civ
ing single whimper, and inside of an
hour or two the mother was hugging her
child.

In the moments of dependency that
comes to every life-when our most
cherished plans seem likely to fail when
disappointment instead of success caps
our best endeavors, when everything goes
wrong and the world looks blue to US
how exasperating the advice: Look on
the bright side; all will yet be well. "
This advice we must take however. 1t
is the people who cultivate the habit of
looking on the bright side that are ulti-
mately successful. For to nope over
misfortune is to be conquered by mis-
fortune; to grumble at our fate is TO in
vite repetition of fate's frown; to live in
the shadow Of adversely is to droop and
dwindle and die. Our only hope lies in
struggle towards the sunshine.

THOUGHTS OF THE FUTURE.

1t IS the fault OF many parents in this
easy going land that they allow their
boys and girls to grow up without anv
apparent thought Of the future. Thev
seem willing to take chances that their
boys will acquire business habits and be
able to take care Of themselves. and as
Dogberry assumed, reading and writing
were acquired by nature. The habits of
incidence, which are all that the boy has
learned, are not easily overcome. and
may prove a stumbling block at the be-
ginning OF his career. How many fool
lsh mothers excuse themselves for
bringing up their daughters in idIeness.
with the thought that they will certainly
marry, as if an. idle wife and mother
were not more despicable object than
an idle maid. They cannot realize the
suffering that the girl must go through
in order to overcome the habits of ease
in which she has been reared if she is
ever able to be useful woman.
The lesson which it is most necessary
to teach our children is one of thought
iuness and industry. This is a lesson
that must be constantly instilled into the
child and growing boy or girl. AS the
population of the land increases, the op-
portunities for successful careers are mar.
rowing, and none need hope to attain sue
cess without systematic, industrious
habits.
The heights by great men reached and
kept
Were not attained by sudden flight;
But they while their comrades slept
Were toiling upward in the night"

WORK LESS, REST MORE.

Women who have the care of house
devolving upon them are too apt to de-
generate into mere drudges, sacrificing
every pleasure and recreation in the en-
deavor to minister to the physical needs
of their families. And what mistake
they make in this regard Their phys
ical welfare is only a part of their
mothers duty. Children need sympathy
and Companionship daily and hourly and
where is il to come from if the mother is
always tired and most always cross? It
is pleasant to see a home neat and tidy.
but it Is better to see a Uttered floor
some times, than to have the children
scolded all day long in order to keep the
house clean and neat. A child enjoys
play better ifmother will suggest or help
them in it. Music can be made pleas
ant feature in the home life also. Verify
a mothers mission is one of the most
important in this world, and we shonld
try TO fill it in the best possible way.

JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY.

Deep in the heart OF Judaism is en-
shrned sacred an immortal word
duty-whch makes of man a moral
source of the universe. Deep in the
heart of Christianity is enshrined a sa-
cred and immortal ord-Iove-which
makes man spiritual being and links
him to the divine source Of all life. HUI
manity deeds both of these words IN
ordeI to become the perfect creation it
was meant to be. The one gives the
conscience, the other the heart of man.
kind, the one is the masculine, and the
other the feminine elements of the world.
Judaism gives the Ten Commandments.
and Christianity the Beattudes. But
only the two together can yield the per-
feet ideal-the love that is simply the
highest duty, and duty that is lost in
love. And in order to come into this
closer, higher union, into the faith which
makes humanity whole, and not a thing
Of parts, and the truth which makes
men free, fixed and formed codes must
disappear; the outer frame work of his
tory and theology must fall away, and
spirit be left free to seek spirit. Then.
and then only, will life have its whole
meaning, as part of a larger life whose
beginning and end are hidden from the
moral vision. Religion will have its full
sway, and vet there will be,none who per-
secute, and none who are prosecuted, for
the earth shall be full of the knowledge
OF the Lord. as the waters cover the sea.

the marriage means loneliness and
narrowed circle i'll two homes, that
fact should be resolutely put out of
mind. Only one sentiment should pre-
vail, and that sentiment should be ex-
pressed in smiles and good wishes and
happy thoughts. For two are starting
on a strange and long journey all
alone. and it means much to them to
start off with their happiness un-
marred by last glimpse of tear
stained eyes, garments of somber at
tire or faces distorted with grief.
III mourning should be worn at all

tied. Against every argument that the
tfapplngs of woe are depressing and
therefore unhealthful, and mean moth
ing to the dead. there arises a protest
from those in black that to wear any
thing else is a mark of disrespect to
those who are gone.

1t is more important to show re.
spect for the living by refusing to i'm
pose marks of bereavement on the
public; but the advocates of this Gus
tom refuse to pay heed to the good Of
those who survive. Fashion demands

TINS most expensive attire at n time
When sickness and death have already
made such exhaustive demands on the
purse that simple consideration for

III one wears mourning or not is ones
privilege but 1t is never ones priyi-
iege TO wear such marks of woe at a.
wedding. If one is too selfish to Law
aside such trappings for the sake of
others. then one should stay at home.
IL grief is to be nursed, home is the
place to nurse it. Under no con-
ditions should 1t be trotted out and
