C. D. P. ORATORS COM
INC TO MARYLAND
Senator W. E. Borah and Others to
Speak in Maryland Campaign.

The Republicans of Maryland are
proceeding rapidly with their campaign
plans, while the Democrats have not
yet concluded their discussion OF regis
tration results. Monday State Chair
man TAFT announced a list of rational
Republican orators, who, he saio. will
be brought into Maryland during the
last two weeks of the campaign. Among
those expected and with whom partial
arrangements have been made are Uni
ted States Senators William E. Borah,
of Idaho; Porter J. McCumber, of North
Dakota; William G. Kenyon, of Iowa,
and A. G. Cummins, of Iowa. Another
great leader expected is Minority
Leader Of the House James Mann.
With this formidable list of speakers,
in addition to several others yet to be
announced, the Republicans expect to
offset the work done throughout the
state by Secretary of State Bryan,
Speaker Champ Clark and the Demo-
cratic Congressional Congressman, who
will be fired in by the Democratic Con-
gressional Committee to make plans for
the return of Democratic senators and
congressman in order that the hands of
President Wilson may be upheld. The
Republican orators will show by cold
| logic that while the President is honest
that many of the policies he has
enunciated and has forced Congress to
enact into laws are radically bad for the
general welfare of the country. The
proposed federal war tax, the low tariff
and other similar questions will be the
issues that will be brought home to the
people along with the unfulfilled Dem
ocratic promises to aid business condi-
tons
Meanwhile, however, the Republi-
cans are filling in dates for meetings
throughout the state with the candi-
dates themselves and local speakers
as the attractions.

Sixth district candidate, began three

State Senator Zihlman

State Senator Frederick N. Zihlmann,
of Cumberland, was visitor in Iona
coming Monday of this week, says the
Advocate. Through his record in the
Maryland Legislature and his efforts in
behalf of the working man Senator
Zihlman has made many friends in this
region.
He was we'll pleased with his visit to
Homecoming and received a great well
come in both labor and business circles.

Zihlman's favor at the polls next month,

High School Notes.

Study was almost at standstill dur
ing the past week, owing to the proxi-
nifty of the Garrett County Fair
grounds. With this annual exhibition
over, however. teachers and students
alike are looking forward to a long
period which can be devoted to the
regular routine of work.
The School parade took place on Fri
day morning, as advertised, schools
from all over the county being represen-
ted. To the credit of the Oakland
High School 1t may be said that only
about five students were not in line, so
that about ninetv-fve took part in this
exercise.
! The Oakland High School bootl. on
the third floor of the fair building,
while notas large as the one last year,
was nevertheless very attractive. A
few pieces of furniture, made by the
boys in the Manual Training room,
were shown. The Domestic Science
Department was we'll represented by a
table covered with many different deli
cacles, all having been prepared by the
girls who are taking this course. On
the walls were displayed many speci-
mems of tvpewriting, of English compo-
sltion, of translations from Latin and
German into English. of drawing, and
of plane and solid geometry.
Rev. Otto Bremen visited the school
a week or two ago, and gave two read
ings. The Man Without a Country, /"
and "Laska," which, Judging by the
applause, were appreciated
Plans for two debating societies in
the Oakland High Schools are being
considered. and these societies will
probably be organized in the course of
a few DAYS.
The Freshmen held meeting a few
days ago, and elected the following
officers: President, Robert Sliger; vice
president, Clyde Dawson; secretary,
Frank Lyon; treasurer, Mary May.
A number of Freshmen and Sophie
mores enjoyed hay ride given by
Misses Mary May and Elizabeth Will
lison last Friday night. Miss EMae
Arnold acted as chaperon. The party
started from the home of Miss Mary
Drake Naylor, at eight o'clock, and re-
turned at about eleven.

AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL FOR
ACCIDENT AND VICINITY
Plans Under Consideration to Estab-
lish Such.

1t will doubtless be of general interest
to know that the State Department OF
Education, the Agricultural College of
Maryland and the Agricultural Educa-
ton Service of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture, have entered into a CO.
operative agreement for the purpose of
Quilting course in nature study and
elementary agriculture for the public
schools of Maryland, based on agricul-
tural and school conditions in the State.
During the past week Mr.. E. A Mil
Ter, Specialist in Agricultural Education
OF the Department of Agriculture at
Washington. in company with Mr. F. E.
Rathbun, County Superintendent, has
been making special study of school
and agricultural conditions in Garrett
County. This County was selected for
study as typical of conditions in the
Appalachian counties of the State. To
the progressiveness of County Superln-
tendent Rathbun is due largely the
credit for this county having been
brought to the attention of the National
Department.
The outlines in nature study and
elementary agriculture previously re-
ferred to are to be prepared as a guide
to the teachers in the public schools of
the State in teaching the agriculture
adapted to Maryland conditions at the
| time of year when the work is or should
be done on the farm 1t is hoped to
make simple and effective the work of
the teacher.
The teachers of the county will be
interested to know that the outlines
mentioned are to provide lessons in
nature study and agriculture after d
monthly sequence plan, practical ex-
erclses, suggestive correlation exercises
with other public school branches and
references to adopted texts and to State
and U. S. Department literature free
and available to teachers.
the County Board of School Com
missloners are seriously contemplating
the establishment of a department of
Agriculture in connection with one OF
the rural high schools of the county.
Mr.. Miller met the Board for a con-
ference while he was in the county. A
number of points was considered at this
conference such as the character of a
suitable location, the number of acres
of land necessary in connection with an
agricultural high school, the number
and qualifications of the teaching staff.
AS a result of the conference and
visit to Accident by the County Snper-
intendent and the Washington Speci-
alist, the Commissioners look with con-
siderable favor on that place US suit
able location. A body of ten acres of
land living just to the rear of the new
school building is well suited to the pur-
pose of school farm. If the citizens
of the community could see their way
clear to contribute this land to the
school, it is entirely probable that the
the Commissioners would meet them
half way by establishing and maintain
ing an agricultural high school. This
would be one of the most important
educational steps that the county could
take just at this time.

TOUCH NOT THE CUP.
SARA ROBERTA GETTY.

Touch the cup! ah men, through all the years
That mark your downward course, a mothers tears
Have fallen day by day. I1eT prayers go up
Each hour: Oh God, let him not touch the cup.
Wretched indeed you; but far far
Is it to follow after dark hearse
Wherein mothers form lies mute in death
Who prayed for you in vain with her last breath
Touch not the cup! a weeping sister pleads
AS, when in shame your wayward step she leads
An anxious brother begs "oh touch it mott!
A fathers head is bowed because this blot
Is fallen the name how you bear
To see his dear head bowed with grief and care;
His hopes denied, work Of his life undone:
This yearning cry of "Absolern my son
oh father touch it mott chid's sweet voice
The sound Of which made your heart rejoice,
Now pleads in tears, the dear eyes wide with fright,
Nor comprehends the terrors that each night
Brings to the home. Are they no longer dear
To YOU and oh what must it mean to hear
Your chlds voice say with the good night kiss
Dear God don't let papa die like ths''
20 touch not" 1t is your wife who stands
A suppliant for justice at your hands.
Why let her plead for what is hers by right?
Each wretched day each anguished, sleepess night
Is like sword thrust in the heart; in shame
She bears her yoke, wife in naught but name
Will not her love suffice you to give up
The love Of Rum? O. men, touch not the cup!
