1t was noticed sometime ago that
a party OF friends went on an e3plor-
alton to find the town OF StateWood
and which they say terminated In
profitless journey But all thanks 70
God, We are conforming exactly with
the truth when we say that we nao
found quite a number OF persons
which with very little geographical
research have found the village when
posses the beautiful name OF State
wood. We have noticed also that
some of our friends have ar insatl-
able doubt az to the fact whether they
reside within the boundaries OF State
wood. So to crafty this doubt we
will state the following boundaries
that have been satisfactorily estab-
Iished. On the macadamiZed road ex-
tending from Mount Pleasant Metho-
dist Episcopal Church to Klee Milling
Company road, on the McComas Mill
road to Middle Run, on the Arnold
road to Mr.. Lewis Barnes and on old
Finksburg turnpike to Providence
Methodist Protestant Church. Furth-
ermore, some of our friends may still
have a puny doubt existing in their
minds as to the fading away Of Gam
Der. Cheer up, Gambler has not been
absolutely wiped off the earth forever,
for AL Glory to the Fates," our ex-
plorers were surprised, strange TO
say, that after a little deeper geo
graphical research work they discov-
cred Gambler located about one-half
mile east Of Statewood. Perhaps our
friends may again be in doubt as to
the causes of such an alienation In
the crust Of the globe. After look
ing over a little geology We have
found that it is very easy to solve
this problem The conclusion drawn
il that this landslide has been caused
by some what the same subterranean
forces that cause the land slide in
the Calubera Cut Of the Panama
Canal. Although this research work
has caused very" little exertion either
physical or mental, yet we are sure 1t
will be appreciated by the citizens
Of our town for the reason that
III will satisfy their doubts and
fears, lest they should not be included
within the boundaries Of the delight
full village of Statewood-
