An ENJOYABLE Outing.

Quite a number OF local people jour
neyed by carriage to Benjamin Green's
farm in Garrett County Labor Day,
and spent an enjoyable day as the
guests of Mr.. and Mrs. Green. The
hospitality extended the visitors was
the last word of the Garrett County
brand, and in addition to fine chicken
dinner, the guests were treated to a
ramble over Mr.. Green's wonderful
farm. His apple orchard is of the
finest, specimens from which will be
exhibited at the Frostburg Fair. Mr..
Green will also make competitors hustle
for the prize money in the one half
acre potato growing contest. Those in
the party at Mr.. Green's on Labor
Day were Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas E.

Henry McLarkle and Raymond Bell,
Mr.. and Mrs. W. G. Davies, Mr.. and

If the Republicans will do their duty
there is no question about electing Hon.
Frederick N. Zihlman Congressman
from the Sixth Maryland district. He
deserves the most hearty support of
every loyal Republican. He is the peer
of Hon. David j. Lewis in every re-
spect and, will, at all times, look after
the best interests of his fellow citizens
of the district in Washington. His six
years record in the Senate of Maryland
proves him the friend of the miner,
lumberman and day laborer. He was
at all times champion of their rights
and protection.

We would suggest that on Sunday,
Nov. 1st, that in every church in Gar
rett county, there be held a Local
Option rally, with temperance addresses
and temperance music. The arrange
ments for such rallys should be in the
hands of the several districts commit
tees. The ground can be covered by
services at 1870 a. M, 800 p. M, and
7:30 p. m. We are sure the executive
committee would gladly furnish the
speakers if early application was made
The announcement for these meetings
should be made two or three weeks in
advance, in order to secure the largest
attendance possible.
