Instruction in Skirmish Work.

The click, click, click of the rife
hammers was heard all across the pa
rade ground this morning as the Dis
trict soldier boys were instructed in
skirmish work. They would spread out
across the field, run a space. fall down
and fire away at the imaginary enemy
which might have been in the corn
field in the distance, or possibly it was
the farmers enemy upon which they
were firinr-thc crow.
But in their Skirmish work, too, the
District boys showed the training they
have received in their armory by the
officers of the District National Guard,
all veterans who have served their
time in the ranks before they received
their commissions. All that the en-
listed men at this camp are being
called upon to do was done by the off,
GERS, too, for the law governing COM
missions in The District National
Guard expressly requires that the can
didate shall have served six months in

Absence of Puddles in Camp.

Although a heavy rain poured over
this camp all afternoon yesterday and
all during the night. the District troops
arose this morning to find everything
dry. and the country through which they
operated also dry. There were none of
the mudpuddles through which the
guardsmen We're warned beforehand
that they would have to soldier. The
sandy soil absorbed the rain as quickly
as it fell.
The main body of troops and the adj
vance guard spread their lines this
morning and before nightfall probably
will come in touch with the enemy"
Guard officers by the regular army in
structors in this camp are being worked
out In good manner by the militia
officers showing the result of hard
training. That their work Is good is ey-
idenced by the fact that they have es
capped slaughter by the enemy. although
they have been in touch with them. 1t
is military strategy of the first order
that the soldier boys. officers and en-
listed personnel are called upon to carry
out.
Deeper and deeper every day these
fighting sons of Washington, y. C.. get
into the military game, but they have
never so far, gone so deep that they
do not recover by the time the retreat
is sounded for lunch. Every afternoon
is given over to the men. except the
company of each regiment and sep
arate battalion which has the guard

TREE WARDEN FOR OAK
LAND AND VICINITY
Mr.. A. C. WOtring Has Been Commits
stoned BY The Governor As Such.

Under a new State law all trees
standing within the right-of- way of
public highways and along the side
walks of Incorporated towns become
public shade trees, under the care and
protection of the State through the
State Board of Forestry. Heretofore
the authority over such trees had not
been clearly defined. Generally the
property owner who owns the abutting
property claimed them as his trees The
town or road supervisors, as the case
might be, claimed a certain amount of
jurisdiction because they were along
the public highway or street, while the
pole line companies, which have fran
chlSe or permit to use the road or
streets, claimed that whenever such
trees interfered with their wires they
had the right to cut or trim them.
This has led to much ill-feeling and
many controversies and fas proven very
unsatisfactory. Now the status of
these trees is clearly defined, and they
are recognized as part of the improve
ments of the.road or street, belonging,
not to the individual, but to the public
generally.
This new law makes it a misdemea-
nor for any one to cut, trim or in any
way injure one of these trees without
permit from the State Board of
Forestry. The purpose of the law is to
prevent the mutilation or reckless cut
/ ting of these trees, which add so much
the attractlveness of the streets and
roadsides and are source of comfort
to the people. 1t takes many years
to grow shade tree and they are
worthy of the very best care and pro-
lection of the state.
For the town of Oakland and the
outlying sections the Governor of the
State, upon the recommendation of
the State Forester, has commissioned
Mr.. A. c. Wotring to act as the local
tree warden. Every one interested in
the protection of trees should cooper.
ate with Mr.. Wotring in this good
work to see that the law IS strictly en-
forced and to see that the community
receives the full benefits under its pro-
visions.

Girl Breaks Wheat Record.
Grantsville, Md.

Cora Patterson, 13 years old, of
Caldwell, Kansas. is the proudest girl
in her neighborhood. Last fall she ask
ed her father for a small plot of his
farm near town on which she could ex-
pertinent with wheat raising. Mr..
Patterson allotted his daughter four
acres. She plowed the ground, harrow
ed it, and sowed the grain. She cared
for it and watched it with an eager eye.
Today the wheat was threshed. 1t
averaged forty-seven bushels TO the
acre, the best yield in that part of Kan
sas. In only the cutting and threshing
did Miss Patterson take no part.

Facts and Incidents Worth Repeating
Original and Selected.

Who knows of a man made better by
booze?
What has the liquor business done for
the home?
Why do liquor men fight Prohibition,
saying it doesn't prohibit?
"Whiskey won't get ANYBODY any,
where except to Jail or the insane
asylum, said Henry A Larson, chief
officer of the United States Indian
service.
Last Saturday, just one month from
the date Prohibition became effective
in West Virginia, the city workhouse
of Wheeling was empty. Five prison
ers were released and guards and
cooks have been released until the
monthly payroll has been decreased
from S484 to SIS. On July l, when
Prohibition became effective, there
were one hundred prisoners in the
workhouse.
people are beginning to realize
that drink is menace to humanity, "
said Dr. Reynolds, land that it leads to
sickness and death, feeble mindedness,
and degeneracy, as well as being a
hideous drawback to their children in
after years. The South has realized it,
and many of their counties have taken
liquor away from the negro. The
people are waking up to all these facts,
and fewer men desire to drink. The
liquor interests are strong, but the
people are stronger, and will eventually
prevail
With a car load of Intoxicating
liquors on sidetrack at Pennington,

man in Jail in the Marion county Jail,

liquor law violators in this section of
Marion county are quaking in their
boots with the heavy hand of the law
all ready at their collars.
A Roanoke travelling man who de-
sires that his name be withheld. re-
turned last night from a weeks trip
through the coal fields. He was re-
quested by your correspondent to
quietly investigate conditions in the
towns where liquor was formerly sold
On his return he declared that he had
put the question to all of his trade con-
corning the workings of Prohibition for
the first three or four weeks and he in
variably met with the response that it
was working like a charm. Every
merchant declared that hehad expereinc-
ed quite an increase IN his cash trade,
while the payments by credit customers
has been better than usual. The man
who made this Investigation is personal
ly opposed to Prohibition, but says the
conditions after less than month S
trial in West Virginia are so thoroughly
convincing that he is about to change
his mind. He declared that he would
watch his West Virginia territory with
interest in the future.
