TO our committee every day. Won't
you help us make them happy and
comfortable on Christmas morning?

this committee valuable assistance in
connection with this work. and by an
unanimous vote Il was decided that
an invitation be extended the several
pastors OF the city to meet with our
committee at o'clock this Tuesday,

structed to extend the invitation to
the several pastors in person.
Upon motion, Mr.. Hadley was made

thorough.

we need your help. Let's make every
heart in Bryan glad on Christmas day.

NOt To Paw For Pump.

The case of the Trustees of H. E.
Stmmel VS.. Mrs. Daniel Sunday was
heard in the Circuit Court at Frederick
last Tuesday.
A wind pump was built in March, 1909,
on the farm of Daniel Sunday, near
Thurmont, by Mr.. Stimmel, and other
repairs were also made. Mr.. Stimmel
charged $l20 for the pump, all the ex-
penses aggregating $2l4. Mr.. Sunday
had paid $l09.25, but refused to pay for
the pump, as it was alleged to be i'm
properly placed to get the wind.
No written contract was made, and
Mr.. Sunday died in 1912. Mrs. Sunday
testified that she, like her husband, re-
fused at all times to pay for the pump,
as it was not properly luilt. A verdict
was rendered for the defendant. Waters
and Sebold represented the plaintiff, and
Reno S. Harp was attorney for Mrs.

This generation demands more free

plies this demand. Our Universities
have their fraternities, their entertain
ments and their athletic games. Our
common schools have their Fairgrounds.
Our churches have their social functions
and the Great Hagerstown Interstate
Fair has its amusements.
At the Great Hagerstown Interstate
Fair next October probably 200, 900 per-
sons will gather to seek information, to
cub elbows with their fellows and to en-
Joy the varied amusement offerings.
There will be music everywhere on the
grounds Karsey's Myriophone, an in
strument containing more than 1000
strings, producing the sweetest and most
meodious music, which it is said can be
be operated from stand in front of the

Big Development Planned.
One Hundred Acres OF Land
TO Be Offered The Public
In Acre Sections.

We have learned through our local real
estate agent, Mr.. Sanford l.. Shatfer,
who last year bought and developed
"Woodside" north of town, that he has
secured an option on 100 acres of land,
formerly owned by the late Judge VIM.
J. Black, and now owned by Mr.. Lati-
more Schldt, situated and adjoining the
eastern edge of Thurmont.
His intention is to lay off same in acre
sections, each acre or section facing an
avenue and an alley in the rear. Instead
of offering building lots for sale, Mr.,
Shaffer says he will be able to sell an
acre or section for the same money or
less, than town lot, and he has shaped
these acres so they can be sub-divided
into three extra large building lots, CIV
ing the investor an opportunity to realize
a nice profit, as the past history of build
ing lots in Thurmont has proven,
With good stone road running the
entire frontage of this farm and with
good prospects of same being improved;
with the present nearness of the electric
lights, town water, cement walks, the
rapid growth of the town in that direc-
ton in the past few years and the en-
hancement of realty. largely due to
the modern High School building now
being erected in that section, along with
the assurance of a good Investment with
good returns owing to the adaptability
of the soil for fruit, trucking or any pur-
pose, makes these sections desirable to
those who may be seeking home close
to Thurmont.
Mr.. Shaffer is having made map of
the whole tract, and in few days will
be able to place his proposition before
tnc public. He feels assured of success
IS he has already booked orders for a
lumber of sections.

equally artistic performance In "The
Temperamental Journey"

Accident On State Road.
Four Thrown From Auto and
Badly Bruised.

On Monday afternoon last an accident
occurred on the State Road near Catoc-
tin Furnace, an automobile driven and
owned by Mr.. Harvey X. Miller of York
Springs, Pa, going across one of the
numerous poles thrown across the road.
With Mr. Miller in the machine was
his sister-in-law Mrs. Chas. F. Miller
and her two children, May, aged four
years, and Francis, aged l9 months. All
were thrown from the car and consider
ably bruised Men employed on the road
brought the unfortunate people to Thur
mont where they had their injuries
dressed at the office of DR.. Kefauver.
No bones were broken. After all had
received treatment they resumed their
journey, their plan being to visit rela-
tives near Middletown, Md.
In the vicinity and along the road
where the accident occurred many trees
line the sides of the road and shadows
are thrown across the pike. After hav-
ing encountered a number of these dark
spots Mr.. Miller mstook the pole for
shadow and the result was as stated
above.
Much complaint has been heard regard
ing the poles which are thrown across
the road between Thurmont and Catoctin
Furnace, in many places, it is stated,
there being no need of them, and it is
also thought they are purposely placed
in the road to bother autoists. Last
week Mr.. Lester Birely ran over one of
these poles, hut luckily escaped without
injury to his family or car. Other auto
lists have been obliged to stop and re-
move the Sc obstacles.

We Keep Growing.
One After Another Homes Are
Being Erected.

During the past summer improvements
have been made in many ways in and
about Thurmont. The town Commission
ers have not been idle, as some may
think. In fact much work has been
before them.
Within the past several weeks the
alley known in past years as "Six's Al
ley" has been improved very much.
This alley has been taking care of the
surface water in the west end of town
and became very rough. The town, on
account of the water flowing on private
property, had to care for the water and
also for the alley, and the commissioners
decided to put in big concrete ditch.
This has just been done, and the cover
ing on the drain also serves as walk to
home fronting on this alley. The i'm
provement was no small one, but it was
much needed one and the alley (named
Mexican" by our good citizen Mr.. Jos.
Martin) now presents a very respectable
appearance.
Private properties have been improved
to a greater or less degree all about the
town, and many new houses have been
erected or are at present in course OF
construction.
On Boundary avenue Mr.. Richard
O'Toole is converting his workshop into
a residence. The building has been raised
off the ground, weather. boarded and the
inside arranged into convenient rooms.
Mr.. Joseph A. Weddle has Mr.. Wing
er's house we'll under way, and is push
ing rapidly along on his own house on
Walnut street.
The newest thing in the way of build
ing is a new house on Lombard street.
This is being erected by Mr.. Jas. T.
Waesche on his lot adjoining Mrs. Han
nah Powell close to where the old sash
factory had been located. Work on ex-
awaiting began yesterday, and we under
tand the house will be occupied as soon
IS finished.
Work on the five new houses which are
20 be built has been delayed principally
because of busy contractors.
A number of persons are inquiring for
building lots. The last to be sold was
that purchased by DR.. E. c. Kefauver
from JAS. H. Firor, corner of E. Nam
street and Summit Ave, just east of the
new High School building. In the near
future handsome dwelling will likely be
built.
From the above it will be seen that
house after house is being built, and
that while not much of a hurrah is heard,
Thurmont is growing steadily day by day.
Work on the High School building is
progressing nicely. The excavating has
been completed and the concrete work
was started Tuesday morning. Carloads
of stone and sand are now on the pre- mi
ses and soon, the weather permitting,
brick will be arriving for the structure.
With the up-to-date ideas and methods
being followed by the present Board of
School Commissioners, the $36, 900 School
building at Thurmont will in the course
of few years be too small to accommo-
date the pupils coming to this place.
This may sound boastful, but if such, we
are not the only one to make such pre-
diction. There will be about nine class
rooms, and at present more than 260
pupils are enrolled. The school is grow.
ing and may it continue.
