Death of MIR. William A. Purdy.

After brief illness of pneumonia,
Mr. William A. Purdy, of Forestville,
passed away on Monday morning last
Surrounded By his beloved wife and
children whom he kissed aud bade good
bye, he remained conscious unto the
the end, and was called into eternity
with prayers on his lips-a Christian
death. He became sick on Tuesday
morning of last week with severe chill
and pneumonia developed rapidly, max
ing his case doubtful from the first.
MIR. Purdy was born June IL, 1860,
and was son of Samuel Purdy and
Mary E. Grimes, of Anne Arundel
County. He was farmer and trucker
and was recognized as an honest and
industrious man; devoted to his family,
and respected by all who knew him.
The deceased was twice married, the
first wife being Miss Josephine Wells,
daughter of the late Mr.. and Mrs.
Horace Wells near this town, who died
some years ago, and his second wife
who survives him, being Miss Mamie
Rebecca Randall, daughter of Road
Commissioner and Mrs. Benjamin Ran,
dali, of this county.
Besides his widow he leaves ten
children-six by his first marriage and
four by his last marriage, and also
large number of other relatives.
The funeral took place from Mount
Calvary Catholic Church, Forestville,
of which he was leading and devoted
member, on Wednesday morning and
interment was in the cemetery adjourn
ing the Church.
We extend our sincere sympathy to
his wife and children in their great
bereavement.

Legislature to be Called after May Il

Governor Harrington on Tuesday said
he had changed his mind about the date
that the Legislature is to be called in
special session. He had intended to
issue the call for next week, but Tues
day he said it would not be held be-
fore May Is.
There are several reasons for the
postponement. One is that Congress
is acting slowly on war legislation and
another is that the Governor wants to
see what will be the outcome of two
conferences held in Washington next
week and to which he has been asked
to send delegates to represent the State.
The first will be held on Monday
morning next in Washington at the
office of the Federal Trade Commission.
To this the Governor has been asked to
send representatives of the States food
and market department. To this the
Governor will send members Of the sub
committee of the Preparedness Com
mission which has to deal with this sub
iect. The conference is to discuss fuel
supply and prices as we'll as food.
On Tuesday there is to be another
conference in Washington, and this
will be for the purpose of bringing the
National Defense Council into close re-
lations and harmonv with the various
State committees. This conference
has been called by War Secretary
Baker, and as the representative of
MARYLAND the Governor today named
Gen. Carl R. Gray, chairman of the
Preparedness Commission.

Securing Labor.

AS there is no question about the
shortage of labor having a tendency to
keep the planting of staple food crops
at the normal basis when it is advisable
to increase the acreage. the U. S. De-
partment of labor has formulated a
plan whereby the extra labor may be
secured by the farmer who needs it.
The County Agent has blank forms
to be filled out by the farmer desiring
to secure extra farm hands. These
blanks give the farmer an opportunity
of stating his preferences in regard to
the laborers, that ia, the farmer can
designate whether he is willing to take
experienced or green hands, married or
single, amount of wages he can pay.
time ee will nee jaborers, etc. After
the farmer fill out the blanks they are
sent to the Department and the bor'
ers that are sent out will, as nearly as
possible, meet the requirements OF
the farm 7.
These blank forms may be secured by
applying to the County Agent.

Continued


Between field of glossy green corn
stalks, through a cool and shaded
lane, along the banks of a winding
creek, back on the yellow clay road
until we came to the foot of tall
mountain, we trudged mile after
mile. A stony road led up the side
of the mountain and in the cool
shadows, where the leaves inter-
mingling formed green canopy over
head, the heat and labor of the early
afternoon were quickly forgotten.
When we reached the summit and
looked back over the valley through
which we had been travelling, We
were more than repaid for all out
efforts.
The great river valley spreading
away for miles before our view with
its scattered farmhouses and tiny
villages appeared to be no more than
Christmas card landscape. A
country church yard with it's sunken
grave stones. two or three wayside
schoolhouses, yellow stubble fields,
green cornffelds, dark green wood
land patches, the narrow creek, the
distant Susquehanna and the gray
ridge of the. mountains in the far
away background all went to make
picture that held us spell bound as
we gazed through the openings be-
tween the leaves.
After a short rest we pushed on
again. AS we descended the far
side of the mountain our shadows
grew longer and longer in the light
of the sinking sun. The landscape
became more and more golden as the
great red ball moved nearer the tops
of the western mountain. When the
last golden rays were fading in the
west, we came to a patch of wood

land where we decided to camp for
the night. We slung off our packs,
carried water from a nearby farm
mouse, gathered firewood and soon
rudy glow in the gathering dusk
and a cheerful cracking of burning
wood told of the preparation of sup
per. The odor of wood smoke, so
dehghtful to all who love the out
door world, and a delicious aroma
OF conee began to permeate the air
ana we sat down to a meal which
was devoured with q keen delight
ana whole heartedness which are
utter strangers to the linen covered,
SLOWLY the dark curtains of night
were drawn across the sky. The
woods began to echo and re-echo the
nightly buzzings and chirpings of a
myriad of woodland insects. From
the tree tops came the spirited argu-
ment OF the katydid and theplaintive
call or the whip-poor-wf1i, while.
every now and then there came to
our ears the weird and spooky hoot
or some wise old owl. We sat about
our pile of blazing logs, drew our
blankets about us to keep off the
evening chill and tried to pass away
the hours with songs and stories
The stories were too commonplace
and even the old songs on this night,
lacking all their charm fell fat on
the night air. The spell of night and
the magic of the campfre's ruddy
glow claimed each boys thoughts
and fancies and we all sat in silence
with eyes fixed steadfast on the glow
ing fire. What picture! The dark
background of the night woods. the
warm circle of light, the rising
sparks and above all the expressions
on the faces of the boys who sit in
circle around the fire!

Rain Drives Troop Is
Into Ginger Cake Feast

Last Friday evening Troop 13 of
Pine Street Church enjoyed a corn
roast on the summit of the Rock
vile Mountain. After consuming all
the corn, much to the disgust of the
troop it started to, rain and the troop
made q hasty descent of the noun
tain by the aid of the searchlight
on the Rockville Bridge. BY the
time they reached the river road the
rain stopped and the troop decided
to hike home. AS they passed the
sum ner bungalow of Mr.. Keeny
someone suggested a serenade and
the troop got reward-a fine treat
OF gingercake and cider, and while
partaking of the refreshment the
rain came down in torrents and the
troop returned to Harrisburg via
street car.
Please take notice that the
meeting night is changed from
Tuesday to Friday evening.
