The noteworthy feature of the game
both from the sport standpoint and the
human interest side was Harry Isaacs'
home run, the only one of the season.
To add to his cup of happiness Mr..
Isaacs had the good fortune to have this
great feat of athletic prowess witnessed
by his bride of week, who was watch
ing the game from her auto, and who is
now fully convinced of the good judg-
ment she exercised when on Monday of
last week she took Mr.. Isaacs for better
or worse.

Will Have Double Track.

From reports current among railroad
men of this community, the Western
Maryland Railway Company will, in the
near future, begin grading for double
track from Logs station to sixty mile
siding west of Thurmont.
At present there is long siding at
Logs. This will be continued along the
north side of the main track until it
connects with the sidetrack east of Thur
mont If continued through to sixty the
freight depot and the two stand pipes
will have to be moved. The passenger
depot will not interfere with the work.
1t is thought by many that instead of
erecting new bridges in the mountain, a
tunnel will be bored and the track made
to connect with the main line west of the
old wooden bridge. This, however, is
not at this time portion of the distance
to be double tracked.
The business of the w. M. is increas-
ing rapidly and to handle the immense
amount of freight two tracks are needed
badly. Gradually the company is filling
in gaps between sidetracks and in this
way, in few years, there will be two
complete tracks from Baltimore to Cum
berland.

Thanksgiving Nov. 80.
President Formally Designates
Day And Urges Contributions
TO War Relief.

Washington, Nov. 17.-President Will
son today formally by proclamation des-
ignated Thursday, November 80, as
Thanksgiving Day. The proclamation
reads as follows:
ut has been the custom of our people
to turn in the fruitful autumn of the
year in praise and thanksgiving to Al
mighty God for His many blessings and
merces to US and the nation.
1.-The year that has elapsed since we
last observed our day of Thanksgiving
has been rich in blessings to us as peo-
pie, but the whole face of the world hiss
been darkened by war. In the midst Of
our peace and happiness our thoughts
dwell with painful dsquiet upon the
struggles and sufferings of the nations
at war and of the peoples upon whom
war has brought disaster, without choice
or possibility of escape on their part. We
cannot think of our own happiness with
out thinking of their pitiful distress.
"Now, therefore, |, Woodrow Wilson,
President of the United States of Amer
lea, do appoint Thursday, the Both of
November, as a day of national thanks
giving and prayer, and urge and advise
the people to resort to their several places
of worship on that day to render thanks
to Almighty God for the blessings of
peace and unbroken prosperity which ne
has bestowed upon our beloved country
in such unstinted measure.
"And | also urge and suggest our duty.
in this our day of peace and abundance,
to think in deep sympathy of the stricken
peoples of the world upon whom the
curse and terror of war has so pitilessly
fallen, and to contribute out of our abund-
ant means to the relief of their sutferings.
"Our people could in no better way
show their attitude toward the present
struggle of the nations than by contrl-
buting out of tn .ir abundance to the re
lief of the suffering which war has
brought in his train.
"In witness whereof have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Ozone at the city of Washing this 18th
day of November, in the year of our
Lord nineteen hundred and sixteen, and
of the independence of the United States
this one hundred and forty-frst.
WOODROW WILSON.
