THE PEOPLES FORUM.
A Walk Out Third Street.
To the Editor of The RenubIican.

10 the Editor Of The Republican,
The following paper was read before
the Civic Club at a recent meeting and
its publication in the columns of your
journal was requested. Will you kindly
give it space. THE CLUB.
A few days ago had occasion to walk
from the Court House to place sever
al blocks north, and no very keen OBJ
| servation was required to notice sever
al features which the town or county
might well improve.
The first place to strike the attention
is the Court House itself. At first
glance it appears to be the handsome,
well kept structure which was Oak
lands pride very few years since; but
| a second look shows that the concrete
wall, which consumed whole summer
in building, is literally crumbling to bits
in many places. Not only is there not
a square yard without cracks, but also
IN several spots the top dressing has
come off and the inner work itself is
giving way. At this rate it can only be
a short time until the wall is a ruin.
The pavement outside, too, is in bad
condition, and the lamp globes are so
badly cracked that some of them can
not be cleaned. 1t is thousand pities
that we cannot be made to realize the
lack of efficiency manifested in building
handsome structure and then letting
1t fall into absolute dsrepair. Would
1t be possible, one wonders, to plant
ampelopsis (which takes hold splendidly
on concrete) at the top of the wall, and
train it downward to cover some of
the worst scars?
Across from the Court House is the
town S perennial eyesore, the vacant,
partly eXcavated lot with its heaps of
rough stone and its fourishing weeds.
The dock is in full flower now, and adds
much to the general effect.
Going on little way, we discover
that two old buildings have recently
been torn down by order of the towr
council. An excellent move, surely
but after all, are the piles of debris
much improvement over the building!
themselves? There they lie-laths
plaster, old iron and tin, all sorts O.
things heaped up in crazy confusion. L
seems rather pity to have two tul
fledged junk piles in the very heart o.
town.
But to go on: The mill yard is an un

Boosting series of deep mud-holes af

Do You Use Gas?

If you do come to W. E. Shirer and
inspect and have demonstrated to you
the Direct Action.Gas Range, with the
regular cooking top, and the Direct
Action Oven with the freless cooker
convenience added. The oven is the
most essential part of all ranges and
this range possesses the most marvellous
oven yet produced (which is a cooking
oven as well as baking oven and can
be used to boil and bake at the same
time.
The oven of this gas-range is operat-
ed on distinctly new principle. The
burners are placed in the oven itself:
hence the name, direct action" In
design the range is on efficient cabinet
type with comfortable working height
of thirty-two inches. Connected with
the oven is a thermostat which reduces
automatically the amount of gas allow
ed to flow through the burner at any
temperature indicated. Thus at 200
degrees F. only a ub-fame burns, while
if the thermostat is set for a tempera-
ture of 300 degrees F. the turner's show
full fame until 325 degrees F. is
reached, when the supply OF gas is cut
off and the flame is reduced to a mere
pin-point, capable of maintaining the
temperature set With this arrange
ment an oven of known temperature
can be indefinitely maintained, and this
is marked advance in gas cookery.
The food is first placed in the oven, the
gas is then lighted, and the thermostat is
set for the desired temperature. The
practical results obtained in this oven,
as well as the temperature readings,
show it to be an excellent investment.

cinder walk which runs a long block
from here is now just dirt path, and
a narrow one at that; for the weeds
have so encroached upon 1t and are so
tall that pedestrians must walk in single
file. perhaps, if they have vivid imagi-
nations, fancying themselves stroling
along some meadow byway. Even
when the board walks are reached, con-
ditions are not always much improved:
there are many excellent pavements at
the north end of Third street, but also,
alas! many ricketY, topping board
walks bordered on either side by high
weeds.
But why continue; the sure enough
knocker, with eyes wide open for any
defect, could probably find many more
things to cavil at; but these are merely
the notes of random observer. Third
street is probably fair example of av-
erage Oakland. 1t is not the most beau
tiful street; neither is it the worst. Of
you want a really educational walk,
try Water Street, AS this tries to
show, there is plenty of room for i'm
provement. Is there anyway of bring
ing it about?

into two parties of % each, and armed
with credentials and carrying thousands
of folders explanatory of the PROJECT,
for distribution, will leave Baltimore
and travel by automobile, one half to
the Eastern shore, and the other half
to the Western boundary of the state.
The boys from Western MARYLAND 60
ing east, and the boys from Eastern
Maryland going west.
The Eastern shore party will go to
Crisfeld by way of Belair, Havre de
Grass, Elkt9n, Cecilton, Chestertown,
Centerville, Denton. Easten. Hurlock,
Cambridge, Sharpton, Salisbury, Der
lin, Snowfall, Pocomoke, with possibly
an extra side trip to Princess Anne, all
the points named will be automobile re-
lay stops, while the night stops, where
the boys will sleep, will be Elkton, Cen
terville. Cambridge, and Salisbury. AT
Crisfeld the tourists will board steam
er for Baltimore.
The Western man and party will go
to Oakland by the way of Ellicott City,
RidgeYllle, Frederick, Hagerstown,
Hancock, Cumberland, Frostburg and
Grantsvill, returning by rail. They will
have side trip to Harper's Ferry, and
their night stops will be made at Fred
erick, Harper's Ferry. Hagerstown and
Cumberland.
Owners of automobiles in Baltimore
will take the boys to the first relay on
both trips. Each relay point selected
will furnish automobiles to take the
tourists to the next point beyond, and
so on to the end of the journey. IL is
roughly estimated that 200 automobiles
will be required to travel from 80 to 40
miles. Organization of all the commit
tee is now complete.
Upon the return of the boys to Balti-
more, they will visit in body Governor
Harrington at Annapolis, and President
Wilson at Washington. From there
they will go to The Maryland State
College of Agriculture, where they will
be given banquet From there they
will return to Baltimore and spend a
day inspecting The Maryland Week
Exhibition" the greatest agricultural
exhibit in the state. Returning to their
respective homes by rail the next day.
The boys will be carefully chaperoned
during the entire trip, which will occupy
about two weeks, and a Mothers com
mittee has been appointed in each town
through which the boys will pass to do
every thing possible for their comfort
while there. At every stop the tourists
will be shown all local features of inter-
est, and in many towns special programs
and entertainments will be provided by
the local boys and girls.
This will be one of the largest events
of its kind ever held and is well worth
every effort or sacrifice the boys may
make to win it.
The tour is being given under the aus
plces of THE Baltimore Sun" cooper
ating with thel' Maryland State College
ofAgrlculture" and the boys taking it
