Thurmont Bank Distributes
Nearly 100000.
Checks Sent TO Two Hundred
Christmas Club DepOsitOrs.

Christmas Club DepOsitOrs.
On Friday of last week the Thurmont
Bank, of Thurmont, sent out checks to
the twohundred or more depositors OF the
Christmas Savings Club which was for M
ed here last January, the amount repre-
scented by the checks being about s., 900.
For Thurmont, this is big sum of
money to turn loose all at one time, but
it comes at a time when money is needed
and makes this amount of cash available
for Christmas shopping.
Mr.. l.. S. Birely, president of the bank,
states that the interest in the Christmas
Savings Club surpassed all expectations
of the bank officials when they entered
into the matter. Only few who enter
ed the club discontinued their weekly
payments, but every depositor received
check.
The Christmas checks We're very at
tractive, each bearing Santa Claus de-
sign. With each check was mailed an
appropriate letter, and the announcement
that another club will begin on Deem
Der 2lst.
The following in regard to Christmas
Savings Clubs is taken from the Fred
erick News of last week.
About 1850 checks were mailed on
Tuesday, Dec. 8, by the Central Trust
Co. of Maryland to as many depositors of
the Christmas Savings Club, the total
amount of money paid out being $64, 200.
In spite of the big task ofgetting every
thing in shape for this distribution, the
bank was one day ahead of scheduled
time. With this large amount of cash
available for Christmas shopping, it may
be expected that trade in Frederick will
take a big jump from this time on.
A banking institution does not make
any profit to speak of, from plan of
this kind. Interest is paid on the saw
ngs money, also. However, the Club is
a means of teaching systematic saving
md is a positive asset to the community.
The Christmas Savings plan of the
Frederick Trust Company will also pay
out a large sum to savers. About So, 600
has been saved under this plan, and it
will be payable on and after Dec. 18th.
Checks will be mailed to those request
ing. The two Christmas Savings clubs
of Frederick then have saved over $70,-
600 for use at this season.

Auditorium Theatre
Bought and Paid For.

At the Auditorium Theatre, Toledo,
for the week beginning Sunday Even
ing, March William a. Brady, Ltd,
will again offer George Broadhurst'
master drama, for return engage
ment with the usual matinees on wed
nesday and saturday.
No telling of the plot can give you
ANYTHING more than faint idea OF the
wonderful character drawing of the
play
First, there is Virginia Blaine, the
delicate and refined little telephone
operator who marries the "self-made
king of finance. The part is PLAYED by
Kathleen Mcdonnell Virginia is the
daughter of people of genuine culture
and breeding, with whom real gentiity
was an Unborn quality. Thrown upon
her own resources at an early age, by
the dea,h h of her father, who left be-
hind hm little but good name, she
struggled hravely to maintain her de-
cency. self-reSpect. and ut the same
time add to her store of knowledge of
things worth while. She is not one of
those girrs. too familiar IN every big
city, who ape the manners and Ian
guage of those in better circumstances
merely for show and the height of
whose ambition is to wear clothes
they cannot afford. On the contrary,
she is good, true, earnest little wom-
an. proud of her own clean life and
ever willing to learn anything that will
help her morally and mentally. Fanny
her sister, played by Grace Van Al
ker, is the type of pretty big hearted
girl of the shops on whose shoulders
refinement will never rest with ease,
but who would willingly give her last
cent and ever, thing else she possesses
to help u cOmrade in need. Jimmy
Girley Cplayed by William Harrigan)
is splendid specimen of Nut ig-
norant. thickheaded, selfish, yet with
an all abiding faith in an inner genius
of which he possesses not the faintest
spark, he is a wonderfully life-like
study. Frank Mills, plays the part of
Robert Stafford. the man who fought
his way from the gutter to a place of
financial prominence. This is another
familiar type that of man who has
ruthlessly battled his way to the front
rank thinking OF nothing but his own
personal gain and advancement. and
much of his delight comes from the
telling of his own accomplishments.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseas ed portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
intiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have a
rumblng sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

A GOOD PROVISION.

The committee on public lands Of

the bill introduced by Representative
Smith Of Idaho giving preference
right Of entry to prospective appli-
cants applying for the designation Of
land for entry under the enlarged
homestead act, and has authorized
Representative French, who Is men,
Der Of the committee, to make the re-
port to the house
This Is one of the first bills intro
duced by Representative Smith at the
opening of the present congress and
he has been active in creating senti-
ment In it's favor Under the existing
law those who seek out desirable To-
cations and make application to have
the land designated for entry under
the enlarged homestead act have no
assurance that they can enter the
land In the event 1t Is thrown open to
entry as stranger who first reaches
the land office could enter although
lie may have expended no time or eX-

WIRELESS TELEPHONES.
A German Inventor Uses Them Sue
cessfuIly in Mines.
(Technical World.)

A system Of wireless telephony in
vented by German engineer has been
submitted to conclusive tests at a col
liery in Yorkshire, England. The in
struments used in this connection are
those employed in ordinary telephony,
They are installed like the usual tele-
phone circuit, but instead of being
joined by line Of wires, they are con-
nected up to metallic substances buri-
ed in the ground.
A portable instrument is also pro-
vided which contains the same parts
as the fixed ones, and weighs in all IL
little over twenty pounds. 1t is en-
closed in a box suitable for carrying
about.
The initial expenses and cost of
maintenance are considerably less than
those of the ordinary system, and there
is the great advantage that the port
able apparatus affords means of COM
munication from any part Of the mine
to fixed stations either at the pit bot
tom or on the surface.
A point of great importance Is thai
by means of the portable instrument
it is possible to establish connection
in time of disaster when in the case Of
ordinary telephones the wires would
be broken. and there could be no COM
muncation from anyone who was en-
tombed or cut off from the inbyeside
owing to falls.
A special advantage Is the POSSIBLE
ty of communicating from the top OF
the pit with the cage, while it Is as
cending or descending. This was strik-
ingly demonstrated in connection with
experiments referred to, and was con-
tinuous

ADMIRAL MAYO.
The Man Who Demanded Salute to
tho Flag.
New York SUM

(New York SUM
Inasmuch as Rear Admiral Mayo
was the man who insisted on Huerta's
firing salute to the flag and thus
brought about a crisis with Mexico,
great many persons have the impress
sion that he must be a man Of impul-
sive, string temperament.
AS a matter Of fact Mayo is the
most patient officer in the navy. He
is as calm and unruffed all the day
long as Oscar Underwood, who is, Of
course, the calmest human to be found
anywhere.
True, Mayo Is below average height;
he probably stands less than feet 6
and there Is a theory that men Of mod
est stature are inclined to cockiness.
But Mayo's everyday manner Is as un-
Ibellgerent as that Of an easy going
old setter dog.
Why then did he start the trouble
In Mexico? The navy folk will an
swer Simply because he saw moth
ing to do but play to the straight
rules Of the game as he knew them.
An insult. to the flag calls for sal
ute to the flag, and no matter how
little one might be worked up over
the situation personally there is moth
ing else to 1t. If you're playing check
ers and jump into mans king row
there is nothing personal about the
move Is there?
