SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT
A Splendid Program Well Rendered
nOnday Afternoon.

The faculty of the Oakland Grammar
school are to be congratulated upon the
splendid arrangements made for the
observance of Washington birthday
and the splendid program provided and
for the successful carrying out of all
the arrangements, The scholars met
at the school building after dinner,
formed into a marching column, by
twos, each scholar carrying a small
flag, about 10X14 inches. The column
was headed by the Mountain City band,
in uniform. The band tuned up the old
town in good shape as the procession
moved along to the Maryland Theatre
where the exercises were held. Follow
ing the band were two boys holding a
large stretched out flag, of which every
loyal American is proud of, then came
the scholars accompanied by their
teachers.
1t was great sight. full of inspira-
ton and hope. A lesson of patriotism
was taught to these students which will
be of great value, in the days to come
to this country of ours. 1t was an I'M
pressive scene and will long be re-
membered.
Those assembled in the Theatre, and
1t was crowded, were Oakland's most
substantial people who gave their
presence and influence to encourage the
school in the patriotic effort they put
forth and they were well paid for so do
ing.
With all Europe at war and with the
United States standing by as neutral
always facing the possibility, if not the
probability, of being drawn into the
gigantic conflict, the feeling of patriot
ism in the breasts of Americans is
particularly marked. And there is
nothing which tends to inspire patriot
ism in America more than the mention
of George Washington and the obser-
vance of this day.
AS the High School notes will give an
account of the observance of the day in
their building, we will not attempt to
do so. They too did their part Loyalty
and well and brought credit to both
faculty and students. The Republican
congratulates the school teachers of the
county for their good work last Monday,
for in many parts of the county APP
propriate exercises were held.

Americas Mineral Products.

The mineral products of the United
States are discussed in a small volume
now being distributed by the United
States Geological Survey which con-
tains fund of useful information con-
corning the useful minerals and their
values and production in all the States
during 1912 and 1913. The figures given
in some of the tables are so stupendous
as to be beyond comprehension. In one
table are given the figures for mineral
production from 1880 to 1913, the
metals being valued at Sl85, 600, 900 in
1880 and increasing to $3.50, 0O0, 900 in
1913. The nonmetallic minerals in
creased from $4,000, 900 in 1880 to
81, 562. 000, 600 in 1913, and the total
mineral production from $685., 900, 600
to 81, 446. 000,0 This total for 1913
was an increase over 1912 of more than
$500, 900, 900. The values of the metals
imported for consumption in 1918 was
1921, 600, 900 and of those exported
1919, 900, 900. The value of the total
mineral production from 1880 to 1918,
inclusive, was $35, 1877, 900, 900.

WAITED LONG FOR PROBATE
After Twenty years Son Produces Fa-
theirs WiII-Testator's instructions
Had Been Obeyed.

Undiscovered for nearly twenty
years after his death, the will of Jo-
ham Michael Muller has been offered
for probate at Baltimore by his son,
John G.. A. Muller. The testator died
March 10, 1896, having made his will
on May 81, 1889
The paper, yellow and musty with
age, left all Mr.. Mullers property to
his wife Elizabeth Barbara Muller.
She died April 80, 1915 and her son
was appointed administrator of her
estate. He had known of the exist
ence of the will for several months
prior to his mothers death, but since
all the property had been enjoyed by
Mrs. Muller as her husband had de-
sired, it was not thought necessary
to probate the will at that time
The son says the property will now
be divided between his two brothers
and himself, since his mother died in
testate. The exact value of the estate
has not been determined, but it is
made up almost entirely of parcels OF
real estate.
