PAY TRIBUTE To. OLD
SOLDIERS Of CIVIL WAR
How Memorial Day was Observed In
This Vicinity.

Decoration Day was one of the most
delightful days of the season as far as
the weather was concerned. Thanks to
the thoughtful and Industrious ladies of
the Civic Club the cemetery had been
put in splendid order. The lots of nom
residents Ihad been moved off and the
grass and weeds removed. Early in the
morning those who had loved ones buri-
ed in this City of the Dead had been on
the ground with flowers for the graves.
On the graves of those who had done
service in the Civil war was placed a
small National flag. Much good work
had been done by lot owners. We do
not believe eyer before did the cemetery
present such an attractive appearance
1t made one feel good to see the spirit
of improvement which had prevailed.
Automobiles, carriages and buggies
made their appearance on the streets of
Oakland early in the morning. Nearly
every part of Garrett county was rep
resented, to assist in decorating the
graves. Messrs. Howard Echols and
family, Reed Smouse and boys, and Ed.
Smouse of Fairmont. motored here to
join in the duty of the day. The streets
of Oakland were pretty well filed with
well-dressed and well-behaved people.
The day was sanely and appropriately
observed.
The banks were closed for the day; the
postoffice observed Sunday hours, and
the business houses closed from ten a.
m. until noon. The parade formed in
front of Sturgiss' drug store and was
headed by the Mountain City band. In
the procession were members of the
Grand Army of the Republic, some few
Men who wore .the gray, the Junior
Sons of Veterans, Knights of Pythias,
Woodmen of the World, the Owls ard a
number of children carrying flags and
banners. At the cemetery the Rev.
DR.. Ely delivered an appropriate and
splendid address. AS a whole it was an
ideal Decoration Day and free from all
Objectionable features.

STATE ROAD GRAN SV|LLE
TO ACCIDENT BEING RUSHED
Large Force of Men and Teams En-
ployed by the Pushing Contractors.

The Rob Roy Construction Co., who
have the contracts for building the
State road from Grantsville to Accident
are driving their work as fast as men
and machinery can do it. They are
hiring all the men and teams they can
get They have not less than twenty
five farm teams at work on the road
from Grantsville to Keyser Ridge and
about 80 men. On the road to Accident
they are employing over sixty men and
teams, who are widening the road bed
and grading the road. A large steam
shovel is expected to be at work on this
section within the next few days.
The Rob Roy Company have a large

vantage of the fine weather of the past
weeks and arc making rapid Roadway

The farmers, merchants and laboring
men of that section of Garrett county
are greatly benefited by the building of
this State road. There is a large de-
mand for feed and produce of all kinds,
which means increased bank accounts,
reduction of Indebtedness, and improve
ments to home property, besides good
roads to drive over When the road is
completed Oakland will be crowded
with automobiles filled with delighted
people.

Lutheran League of America.

Determined that no detail, looking to
the success Of the Lutheran League of
America which will be held in Balti-
more next September, shall be over
looked, the various departments of the
Lutheran churches of the city are busily
engaged in perfecting plans for the big
event. This league is declared to be one
of the largest and strongest young peo-
pies organizations in the country and
arrangements are being made to en-
terrain about 5000 delegates from all
over the country.
September % to "a has been definitely
settled upon for the convention and the
day session will be held in st. Mark 8
church, St Paul and Twentieth streets,
while the night sessions will be held in
the Lyric. One of the distinct features
of the meeting will be the singing.
Professor Edgar 7. Paul, of Baltimore,
has gotten together about $50 of the
best singing talent in Baltimore and
proposes to make this part of the pro-
gram revelation to the visitors. The
chorus is practicing several nights each
week and will have reached the pro-
ficient stage by the time the sessions

organization composed of the various
young peoples societies of all Luther
an churches. irrespective of what name

me mbership of at least 100000. 1t is

President Changed HIS 1ind.

Realizing at the last minute that his
refusal to speak at the G. A. R. Deco
ration Day ceremonies at Arlington
Cemetery had aroused resentment at
Grand Army Posts throughout the
country that might be expressed in
many speeches, President Wilson
informed the master Of ceremonies that
he would deliver an impromptu address.
This he did Saturday afternoon, and,
while he was received with proper ap-
plause when he entered the Arlington
amphitheater and when he concluded, it
was evident that his presence would
have been appreciated more if his &C
ceptance had come earlier.
The demonstration of the day went
to Champ Clark, Speaker of the House.
and the throng of veterans and spec
tators got the impression that there
was an intentional difference between
the perfunctory sentence with which
DR.. ]. K. Gleeson, Commander of the
e. A. R., Department of the Potomac,
presented the President, and his warm
words for Mr.. Clark. Mr.. Clark is an
avowed candidate tor the Democratic
presidential nomination in 1916, and the
fact that he had cut his vacation at
Atlantic City short in order to accept
the. Invitation to address the old soldiers
added to the enthusiasm of his recep-
ton.

Seventeen Year Locust Coming

The seventeen-year locusts are max
ing their appearance in West Virginia.
Anyone can see them cling to trees.
The locusts come up out of the ground
during the evening and begin climbing
up the trees, but so far birds have been
eating majority of them. The Eng
lish sparrow appears to be the busiest
in this respect.
Brood of the periodical cocada,
commonly known as the seventeen year
locust, is expected to make its reap
pearance in Ohio, West Virginia, Vir-
GIMP and Pennsylvania early in June.
This is the territory which brood 5 of
these insects visited IN the summer of
ISIS. The insect when it appears causes
considerable damage to newly planted
orchards and shade trees in this terri
tory. The scientists of the bureau of
entomology of the department of agri-
culture are there watching this territory
where the insects are due to re-appear
with view of minimizing its damage.
The locusts are due to appear in the
following counties bordering on Garrett
county: Preston. Grant, Mineral and
