We sometimes think how blest we d he
If all our dreams came true.
We re thinking Of the pleasant ones,
As people often do;
We don 7 recall the nightmares ther
That scare us almost dead.
Until next night we almost feel
Afraid to 60 to bed.
The pleasant dreams are delight,
And worth more than they cost;
But, oh. the terror we have felt
When we some nights have tossed
lu auguished fright and feat and dread
As people often do,
We might regret it very much
If all our dreams came true!

The object and purpose of the Bill of
Complaint, filed in this cause, is to procure
decree for the sale of certain dwelling
houses and lots of ground, situated in
Frederick City, Frederick County, in the
State of Maryland.
The bill alleges that a certain George

F. Hammers and Mary A. G. Hammers,
two of whom died after their father, but
before arriving at the age of twenty one
years; that Mary A. c. Hammers survived
her brother and sister and departed this
life in or about the month of -- A. D.
1914, unmarried and intestate; that the
plaintiff and the defendants in this case
are first cousins of the said Mary A. C.
Hammers and her sole heirs at law and
next of kin.
The bill then alleges that the said prop
critics are not capable of being divided
among the parties entitled thereto without
loss and injury, and prays that the same
may be sold under a decree of the Court
and the proceeds of said sale divided
among the parties thereunto entitled as
their interest may appear, and for general
relief.

Storm Devastates Farm Lands.

The worst gale that has been known
in many wears, passed over the eastern
part OF Montgomery county and por-
ton Of Howard county, Monday, even
ing August 10th, leaving uprooted
trees and hattened corn fields In its
wake. Between Damascus and Laytons
vile, in the vicinity of Eichison, the
storm was particularly severe, leveling
everything in the path of seventy mile
gale, besides doing much damage to the
roads, leaving some OF them impossible.
From Etchson towards EllIcott City, the
storm brought disaster TO scores OF
farmers. Ruined crops were seen on
every hand, and the storm was partic-
ularly destructive on "Oakdale Farm. .
the country home OF former Governor
Edwin Warheld, and on the farms of
Charles Tearre. Harvey Davis and Harry
Warthen. Lightning struck the big hay
rcks belonging to Joshua d. Warfeld,
Jr., and also those belonging to Albert
Justus.

OK Fibre Hard Hit By War.

The Ok Fibre Brush Works, this CITY,
is an important Frederick industry which
has been hard hit by the European war.
Practically all the bristleS used by the
firm in making the immense number OF
brushes which the plant turns out, come
from Germany or through that country
and many also come from Russia. The
fibre used In brush making comes princi-
pally from the South and Mexico.
Assistant Manager Price stated recently
that the war will most seriously interfere
with the operation of the plant, and that
he did not believe that the OK Fibre Fac
tory has bristles on hand for more than
six weeks operation.
Mr.. Price said quotations have been
Withdrawn upon all German and Russian
brstleS. and he takes it that none are on
hand in this country, or the amount so
small as to be negligible. With brush
making fibre prices have advanced about
IS per cent. within the past month or two.
The fact that much of the fibre used
here came from Mexico and was stopped
by the war in that country struck the fac
tory very hard.
In order TO give work as long as posi-
bic the factory management has reduced
the working week to five days, and it is
possible that this time may have to be
reduced still further, and the factory pos
sibly closed. As nearly 800 persons are
gwen employment. it will mean that
should the factory close it will work
great hardship upon those employed
1t was pointed out that should the fac
tory close it will be solely on account of
the war and its inability TO secure brush
mixing materials. The plant has been
finding ready sale for its products, and
at any time when commerce opens will
be able to open up on full time.
1t is stated that other local industries
have also felt the effects of the disturb
ances in the business world. Some orders
for local factories have been cancelled,
but these cancellations are probably only
temporary because of the unsettled con-
ditions resulting from the war.
Ohm l.. Johnson superintendent of the
Union Knitting Mills this city, one of the
largest hosiery mills in the country, has
been in Philadelphia buying supplies of
dyes and colorings IN advance. The local
factory will get in a stock that will tide it
over for some time. Much of the DIVES
used at the local hosiery comes from Ger
many.

Expect Big Year For Hood
COLLEGE

"There has been an unprecedented
demand tor rooms at Hood College this
year" That is what President Joseph
H. Apple and Vice President, Rev. c.
E. Wehler. told reporter recently in
talking of the enrolment of the college
for the college term, beginning Septem-
Der 18th, when the doors will open to
the largest student body in its history.
The enrolment of the institution is just
one month in advance of that OF last
wear. All of this work has been con-
Quoted entirely by mail and correspond
ence, while other seminaries and COL
leges, the Oldest in the country, have
their agents out soliciting for students,
and then report that adverse conditions
in the business world has caused a
slump in the enrolment in the largest
schools Of the country.
Hood College has become famous
by the principle "a maximum course for
a minimum cost" 1t is believed that
because OF this fact, and because each
year students from all parts of the coun-
try come to this institution for instruc-
ton that there has been such an unpre-
cedented demand for rooms at the col
lege. The business conditions reported
to be very unstable throughout the coun-
try, have been help rather than det-
riment to the college in this city.
