NcGINNIS SIDING

Just last week we boasted of hav-
ing the largest pumpkin in this Sec
ton, beingfi raised by Mr.. Miles Long
and weighing 9012 pounds, but yester-
day when Mr.. Long took one of his
nelghbors out to view the prize he
discovered that somebody had left the
gate to the hog yard open and that
mother hog and babies had laid claim
to the prize. She had hole in the
pumpkin large enough for two pigs
to get in and play.
Mr.. Andrew Long gave a quilting
party last night to number of his
friends. 1t was purely a stag affair.
Last night being the first they prac-
ticed on burlap bags and hay. They
finished the quilt and it looked real
nice for the first effort The guests
then retired to the dining room where
they partook of dainty refreshments
such as hard cider, apples and chew
ing tobacco, while the guests were
congratulating the host they heard a
great noise and on investigation found
that the dogs had started a fight, the
to pieces. One of the guests had swal-
result being that the quilt was torn

citement, making him quite sick He
was given a glass of cider and was

FIRST MARYLAND
BACK.
REGIMENT WILL STAY AT ARMORY OF
The FIFTH FOR The NEXT FFW DAYS.

The sun-baked, drill-hardened boys
of the First are home and their hard
ships are over, but they brought back
with them, unsolved, certain parts of
the Mexican problem" which are out
side of diplomatic notes and punitive
eXpenditions.
Around the armory before sunset
there were signs of plenty of field
smoke pouring from chimneys OF field
cook stoves, erected on the grass plot
south of the armory; the smell OF
steaming soup ascending skyward and
mingling with the bituminous odor of
the railroad, couple of blocks away;
red-faced, khaki-clad youths toting
heavy boxes that bore on the outside
hints of food on the inside, and toting
them with no more show of effort than
if they had been feather pillows. Long,
haunted faces broadened with grins;
the hairless pup yapped in shrlll
staccato soprano, and the horned toads
Writhed uneaSily on their master
shoulders. Real grub was in sight.
A regiment of soldiers home from a
campaign, grouped on the floor OF
great armory, with nothing to do but
greet and be greeted by the home-tolks
lis queer sight, especially when all the
soldiers are as hungry as wolves and
when the families of only few
thought to bring along big lunch boxes.
There were groups of gnawing, MUNICH
ing youngsters on the armOry floor,
with large fried chicken legs in both
hands, and traces of previously de-
voured chicken legs on their cheeks
and ears. At their feet were boxes
frin
fat sandwiches, and near them stood
smiling, grayhaired women, looking at
them as hard as they could, and OBJ
viously finding JOY in the spectacle.
Other groups stood off, chickenless
sandwiches, and with no gray-haired
women, or with empty-handed ones
They looked hard, too, at the chicken
chewers, but there was no joy in the11
! looks.
All this was three or four hours aft
er a big locomotive had puffed into
/ Camden Station, it's bumper all trim
med with American flags, and the lone
train behind it had discharged sWarms
of grinning Maryland soldiers. 1t was
1915 o'clock when the first section
arrived, bringing Col. Charles Little
and the Second Battalion of the Firs1
under Maj. Melvin A. Reckord.
! Not until every unit was in did the
march to the armory begin. Once
there, the First Battalion was SEM
into the gallery and the Second ant
Third stacked arms on the floor, and al
spent the afternoon with the visitors
from home. Now and then a squad
was detailed to go out and UNLOAD
some supplies or equipment just ar
rived from the station.
Colonel Little was proud of the regi
ment, and more glad to be home thar
he could tell. He declared that the
regiment would probably spend week
in the armory, preparing accounts ant
equipment for demobilization. Some
of that work has already been done

BRANCH OF MARY
LAND ASSOCIATION
FOR PREVENTION AND RELIEF OF TUBER-
CULOSIS, FORMED In CARROLL COUNTY.

A movement that should be serious
ly considered by the people of Car
roll county, was inaugurated in West
minister on Monday of this week ut a
meeting held in the High School at
Westminster. The meeting was call
ed by Mr.. Alden Anderson, the Field
Secretary of the Maryland Association
for the Relief and Prevention of tu-
berculosis, and was one of a series of
meetings that are being held in each
of the Maryland counties, and was
for the purpose of forming a branch
roll county. This Association has
been active in Baltimore for years
and has accomplished a great deal OF
good there by the campaign of edu-
cation which it has conducted, and by
the placing in the field of % visiting
T. B. Nurses, whose duty it is to visit
and instruct all families which are
afflicted with this malady, and Incl
dentally at this time there are over
1000 cases under such care in balti-
more.
1t is the purpose of the local branch
to try to secure funds enough to en-
ploy a visiting tuberculosis nurse fo1
this county, and to do everything in
its power to lay before our public the
facts concerning this great scUurge
which is always with us, but which
could be almost entirely done away
with were everyone informed as to its
real nature and the precautions that
are necessary to prevent its spread
from person to person. Until such
time as sufficient funds have been Sc
cured to employ a nurse, it is pro
posed to do educational work through
the schools, churches, Grange meet
ings, lodges, etc, and in this way tt
reach as many of our population a:
is possible. In some of the countie!
this work has been very successful
and at present there are no less thar
five county nurses at work. Let III
hope that Carroll will soon make tn
sixth in this movement, which is o
interest and Importance to each on
of US, for who knows that he or sh'
will not be the next one to be strick
