DAUGHTERS MERRY
AT AUCTION PARTY
Melted Nearly $50 for Treasury
Mrs. H. r. Brown Efficient as Auc-
tioneer at D.-A.-R- Sociable.

Members of Brattlebofo chapter,
Daughters OF the American Revolu-
ton, to the number of about 90, had
a merry afternoon yesterday in the
home of Mrs. L. E. Holden. when
Mrs. Holden and Mrs. w. F. Root
were hostesses at a dime social for
the benefit of the treasury. Each per
son brought a parcel of not less than
10 cents value, and these parcels were
assembled in a large red, white and
blue basket and were sold by auction
from platform by Mrs. Henry r.
Brown. Mrs. Brown used the gavel
which her father, the late Calvin p.
ellison, used at auctions, and she
proved to be very efficient besides
creating not little amusement. The
receipts were nearly 500. Competition
at times was brisk and the bidders
entered thoroughly into the spirit of
the occasion. To make the affair seem
more like real auction refreshments
of the kind generally in evidence at
public sales were served. The rooms
were decorated with flowers and flags
and there was music by a Victor ma
chine.

to match some samples at store. While
she is standing at counter Helen North,
a rich girl kleptomaniac, steals piece of
lace, and noticing that it Is missed, saves
herself by thrusting it into Margery's

her fathdr wrote before his death. Helen

and when she seeks to claim her own the
drama develops to most unexpected
climax.
Blanche Sweet plays the role of Mar
gerry and House Peters is the red cross
surgeon who loves her and remains true
under all conditions.

Will Ask Commissioners
To Build Road.

Citizens of Thurmont, Mt. St. Marys
and Emmitsburg are aroused over the
Good Roads question and an effort will
be made to have the State complete the
grading, ETC., on the road from Thurmont
to the Mason and Dixon line north of
Emmitsburg.
Last week meeting of citizens and
County Commissioners was held at Deer
field at which time plans were laid for
the improvement of the road from Thur
mont to Deerfeld. This work has not been
left die, and we understand engineers of
the Western Maryland Railway and Fred
erick County are making surveys this
week so that data can be laid before var
ious bodies interested at meeting to be
held in the near future.
On Tuesday evening citizens meet
ing was held in Community Club Room,
the matters for consideration, being the
improvement or the State Road from
Thurmont to Emmitsburg. The State
rebuilt the F. & e. pike from this place
south two years ago. The road through
Thurmont is in very bad condition, and
the road between here and Emmitsburg
is in bad condition and should be rebuilt.
At this meeting committee of citiiz-
ems of Thurmont were appointed to act
in CONJUNCTION with committees from Mt.
ST. Mary's and Emmitsburg. The three
to act as one and wait on the State
Roads Commissioners, present the matter
and ask that the road be rebuilt this
summer.
This piece of road should be improved,
it being Travelled extensively, and main
thoroughfare from Frederick to the his
toric field at Gettysburg and part of
the great Lincoln Highway.
The committees from Mt. St. Mary's
and Emmitsburg will be named this week
so that the matters can be brought be-
fore the commission at once. The com
mittee from this place is composed of the
following gentlemen:
A. H. Etzler, L. K. Waesche. G. f.

THE MOTH AND THE FLAME

THE MOTH AND The FLAME
With all the strength and power of a
Billy Sunday sermon, Clyde Ftch's great
drama of present-day life, 1.-The Moth
and The Flame" returns to the public in
a new incarnation. as an impressive
screen drama produced by the Famous
Players Film Company and presented on
the Paramount program. Tragically true
to life, but humanity tender in its emo
tional appeal this play will live forever
as one of the foremost examples of
American domestic dramas, and the i'm
mortality that the screen confers upon
this great stage classic is indeed we'll de-
served.
Grim in its mockery of the sins of
society and overpowering in it's realism
and fidelity to natural conditions, "The
Moth and The Flame" is dramatic
preachment that stirs the imagination
and thills the heart. Enacted by ster-
ling Famous Players cast, the play will
live as long in the memory of the audi
ences who witness it's performance or
the screen as if the incidents unfolded ir
their own lives.
