Insuring Fighting Men.
Plans Being Made By Govern
ment to Compensate Brave Men.

Work on the plan of Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo for life and indemnity
insurance to the soldiers and sailors of
the United States is progressing. The
advisory committee of 10 prominent in
surance men and other committees and
the Secretary are working out the details
and bill will ultimately be drafted and
presented to Congress for action. The
report of the various committees and the
Secretary's action furnish tangible
working basis for the legislation.
The insuring of our soldiers and sailors
will be only new application of we'll
known principle. Employees insurance,
especially for those engaged in hazardous
employment, has long been recognized
as just and wise and profitable policy
in private business, and has been sue
cessfully operated for years. In fact
through the United States Employees
Compensation Commission civilian en-
ployees of the Government are now in
sured against accidents occurring in the
course of their employment.
The wisdom and justice of great Gov
ernmept applying the principle to its
citizens who for their country's sake en-
gage in the extra-hazaryous employment
of war are apparent to all. Our soldiers
and sailors in defense of their country
are daily hazarding their lives and safety
and they certainly deserve the same pro-
lection, and their dependents deserve
the same protection, that the great bus
mess corporations give their employees
and the United States gives certain of
it's employees.
Secretary McAdoo before the confer
ence of insurance men outlined his views
as follows.-"It seems to me that we
ought not, as we send our men into this
war, say to them that they must be de-
pendent upon future legislation for the
granting of compensations which have
heretofore, under our policy, taken the
form of pensions. Our brave men should
not be left in uncertainty or doubt as to
what is going to be done for them in
case of either death or total or partial
disability. A man who goes out to fight
for the United States is entitled to know
in advance what just Government is
going to do for him."
One of the great uses of the proceeds
of the Liberty Loan Bonds is to protect
our fighting men, to supply them with
everything that will make them power
full. effective and as safe as may be.
That those who meet with disability in
the course of their duty should be given
compensation and that the dependents OF
those who die for their country should
be given compensation is exactly in line
with and really part of this use of the
proceeds of the liberty Loan Bonds.

Last Tuesday evening Chancellor Lodge
No. 67, X. of P, of Thurmont, gave a
farewell reception to the nine young men
who recently enlisted in Company A,
Maryland Regiment, from Thurmont.
At 7.45 members of Chancellor Lodge,
led by these young men and accompanied
by members of the Order of Owls and
Columbia Council Jr. o. u. A. NJ, left
their lodge room and marched to the l..
o. O. F. building where they were join
ed by members of that organization, and
all marched to Town Hall, about dozen
members of Jason Damuth Post No, 80,
G. A. R., falling into line as they passed
G. A. R. headquarters.
The young men, in whose honor the
meeting was held, were Messrs. David
and John Gall, Fred Bulman, Earl Fogle,
Eddie Freeze, Horace Spalding, Ray
mond Stull, Leslie Hoffman and Charles
Brenaman. These occupied front seats.
The Hall was crowded to it's capacity.
The speakers for the evening were
Messrs Leo Weinberg and Reno S. Harp,
of the Frederick county Bar, and DR.. H.
C. York, now of Thurmont.
On the stage other than the speakers,
were Rev. w. C. Waltemyer, DR.. P. E.

Musicians Wanted.

The United States Navy is in need of
musicians.
1t is the desire of the Navy Depart
ment to recruit the bands of all the fight
ing ships to their full strength, and a
special appeal is being made to young
musicians all over the country.
The pay is good-better than that paid
ordinary musicians in civilian life-and
the surroundings of a bandsman aboard
ship are pleasant and agreeable. The
advancement leads to bandmaster.
Young men with merely primitive
knowledge of music can enlist in the
Navy at this time and be sent to the
Musicians School, from which they are
transferred to ship; thus receiving a
complete education in band music
Once aboard man-o'-war, the young
musician is afforded not only chance to
serve his country at critical time, but
is enabled to travel extensively while ir
the pursuit of his vocation.
While the Navy recruiting authorities
at Baltimore have not been asked to en-
list definite quota of musicians, they
are anxious to see Maryland maintain
her loyal record in the call for this branch
of the service.
Full particulars of Navy enlistments
can be obtained from the nearest post
master; or directly from the Navy Re
cruiting Station, Calvert and Lexington
streets, Baltimore; or from the Navy
Recruiting Sub-stations at Cumberland
and Hagerstown.

Gran9e Field Day.

The second annual Grange Field Day
of the Oranges of Frederick county to
be held at Braddock Heights Thursday,
August End, promises to be an important
meeting not only for the Changers, but
for all interested in rural development.
The committee in charge has arranged
good program consisting of musical num-
bers, recitations and addresses. Among
the speakers to be present are DR.. A. F.
Woods, president of Maryland State Col
legei Mr.. O. B. Martin, of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture; Mr.. George H.
Stevenson, president of the Farm Loan
Bank of Baltimore; State Master B. John
Black, and others, including Reuben
Brigham and Fred j. Van Hoesen.
The program will begin promptly at
l.30. At this critical stage in the history
of our country, when we are engaged in
one of the greatest wars the world has
eyer known, you should not fail to be
present and hear these speakers, for they
will discuss subjects that are of vital in
terest to all. The Grange, as you know,
is primarily rural organization and
stands for everything that makes for
community betterment. If you are in
terested in your country as we'll as your
community, you should make an effort
to attend the meeting. The community
in which you live will rise no higher than
the ideals of the men who compose this
community. We cannot urge you too
strongly to attend this meeting, for we
firmly believe your time and effort will
be well spent if you participate in the
Grange Field Day program.

Waltemyer. Each of the nine boys were
given beautiful silk flag, very suitable
remarks being addressed to each as he
was called to receive this token from the
K. of P. Lodge.
Mr.. Reno Harp spoke on "Fraternity
and very forcibly told why, at this time,
more than at any other period in our
history fraternity should be practiced by
lodges, every one of which will have
brothers fighting in foreign fields ere
long.
DR.. York had for his, subject, Doing
Our Bit" are urged that every person
do his utmost to help those in the
trenches fighting for the freedom of the
peoples of the earth.
Music was furnished by the Thurmont t
Orchestra. Two selections, Columbia,
the Gem of the Ocean" and "America, "
were sung, Miss Fannie Landers leading.
A collection was asked for the benefit
of the Red Cross League. Hats were
passed by young ladies and the sum of
$23 48 realized.
The meeting was closed with prayer
and benediction by Rev. Pritchett.
Early Wednesday morning the local
members of Company A gathered about
the public square and gave many of their
friends farewell before departing for
Frederick where they joined other MEM
bers of the Company. Mr.. w. c. Bren-
aman took number of the boys in his
auto and Mrs. Joseph Kronacher, who
is stopping at the New Thurmont Hotel,
took several and two went by trolley.
The boys may possibly have an oppor-
tunity to come home before leaving for
camp at Admission, Alabama, and it might
be their last appearance here until the
close of the war. Nor is it known now
how long the men throughout the State
will remain at their Armories, it may be
ten days, two weeks or longer.
Much equipment must be distributed
and all of the units must be mustered
into the Federal service.

understood and less appreciated relation
of India to the war; India as cause of
the war and India as factor In the war.

SEEK OUR own ADVANTAGE.

If we shall seize and intern and n
nally con.iscate or make Use of with
out complete confiscation the German
vessels informed in United States ports
then why should we not take advantage
of German patents fled in the United
States? II is stated by an eminent
patent lawyer that hundreds of pat
ents exist in this country on processes
for making dyes and drugs.
England already has licensed the use
of German patent processes, Germany
and Russia have each cancelled the
others patents. The processes should
be available in this country TO manu-
facturers. either with the promise of
royalties to patentees to be paid after
the war or without royalty or payment
Of any kind, The better plan would
be TO suspend the patent during the
war The alien must hand in his
weapons Let him also hand in his
patents.
Anyway, If there is anything German
in this country which can be used 10
shorten the war or 10 decrease It's
