For New Movie Show.

The members OF the Shepherdstown
Fire Department are trying to make ar
engagements TO install moving picture
show in their hall, the object being TO
make money to pay off their indebtedness.
The costofa new and up-to-date machine
and additional seats and other necessities
will amount TO about $500. The firemen
have fund of about 800, and they will
try TO float notes OF $40 each TO raise the
other $500 that is needed. They will at
once make an appeal to their friends and
the public generally for subscriptions TO
these notes or bonds, and they hope that
they will be able to quickly raise the
needed amount and start the movies.
The firemen by hard work and good nan-
agement have put up very handsome
building that is credit 10 our community
The people ought TO be generous in sup
port OF any enterprise that will enable
them to get rid OF their obligations. The
firemen propose to run the show them
selves, reducing the expenses to the min
imum.

Must Be Courteous and Agreeable.


The Norfolk & Western Railway has
taken long step forward into the good
graces of the passengers who use its
trains by issuing the following bulletin to
its trainmen and other employees:
''ln event OF any delay to trains or in
terruption OF traffic which may be i'm
portant enough TO affect the comfort and
convenience OF passengers, conductors
will make every possible effort TO find
out the cause of the delay and its probable
duration, and will furthermore see that a
suitable announcement is made TO the
passengers and others interested"
Conductors and trainmen are instructed
to freely and courteously answer all ques-
tions addressed to them upon this subject
and give any and all information which
may be necessary for passengers TO make
suitable arrangements. Itmay not always
be possible for conductors and trainmen
to find out exactly the cause OF the trouble
or the length of the delay. In such in
stance they will only be expected TO do
the best they can. The division office
will get in touch with the situation and
will aid the efforts OF conductors by giving
proper information which in turn should
be given TO passengers. Station agents
will endeavor to find out why trains are
late and see that the passengers waiting
atthe station are properly informed. The
train dispatcher will keep in touch with
the agents and assist them in ascertaining
the cause and extent Of the trouble.
Nothing will produce so good an effect
and contribute as much to the popularity
ofthe Norfolk & Western as the announce
nent of information of this character.

an extremely COlu wave tHdt Ids Uccn
staying with us ever since. The ther-
mometer was as low as eight above zero,
and this temperature, driven by strong
winds, made outdoor occupations trifle
unpleasant. though bracing and invigora-
ting. Just when folks were congratula-
ting themselves that the keen, cold air
would kill the germs of the grip, which
has been so prevalent, along comes
government bulletin that says that this
theory has no foundation in fact-that the
grip germs thrive in just this sort of tenn
perature. Apparently the only thing that
cold weather is good for is ice.
The entertainment given in Red Mems
hall in Sharpsburg last Saturday night
was very enjoyable affair. The first
part of the programme consisted OF a
pleasing little operetta. which was well
rendered by native talent, the choruses OF
the children being especially well sung.
Then followed the old maids convention,
which was full Of fun, the local hits being
received with great applause. The presi-
dent, Miss Pauline Blackford, and the
secretary, Miss Pearl Neikirk, were bright
and clever and kept the convention NOV
ing in the most interesting style. The
characters were taken by the young folks
of the community as well as those OF more
mature years, and the old-fashioned cos
tunes that they wore could not conceal
the beauty of the girls nor the charm oil
the older ladies'. 1t was an altogether
pleasing performance, and was enjoyed
by an audience that completely filled the
hall. The entertainment is to be repeated
Saturday night.
