ASSIST IN PICKING RASPBERRIES

Every day the great need for the
conservation of food is brought be-
fore us. Some are doing their part
in the economical saving OF fruit,
vegetables, and food stuffs, while
others are continuing to show extra
vagance in every phaze of their life.
The raspberry season is just open
ing and as all know this is very
perishable berry, thousands of crates
going to waste for the mere lack OF
some one to pick them. The rains
come and the berries, which can be
put to So much use for canning, pre-
serving and drying, are whipped to
the ground, useelss, or become too
soft to ship. We have been thinking
that it might be an excellent plan for
the town people to assist the rasp-
berry owners in harvesting their crop
and receive their share of the pick
ings. The stores might excuse one
or two of their clerks every evening
while the rush raspberry season Is
on and let them pick the berries.

That Promised Audit.

While it is true that the old Board
of Commissioners and Mayor has gone
out of office without fulfilling their
promise to have the books of the town
audited and published, it is equally
true that there are three members OF
the present board who were also MEM
bers of the old board, so there is no
valid excuse why this promised audit
should not now be made and pub
lished. We understand that there Is
opposition to the making of this audit.
If this is so, we demand that rea-
son he given for this refusal.
The statement heretofore made and
published, was doubtless intended
that the public was to assume that
all bill were paid to date and that
there was on hand cash to the amount
of SlGl0.06. AS a matter OF fact all
bills were not paid-one of approx
matcly $3.50 has since been paid and
another of about $50 due and owing
and rot paid. An audit would have
disclosed these facts as well as other
things that the public is entitled to
know.
Possibly you don't want to spend
the money necessary to give the tax
payers this information. That's a
curious position to take if you are
hiding behind this excuse. The old
board deliberately threw away about
$75 of discounts that they were en-
titled to if they had promptly paid
the electric current bills to the Rail.
way Company. This same would
have paid for the services Of an audi
tor.
Come on, gentlemen, with the au-
dit, and let us see how the affairs OF
the town actually stand.

A Good Race Course.

Since the limestone, which was placed
on East Main street, has become packed
and smooth. it is almost as good as some
State Road. Autoists when striking this
stretch Of road find going easy and many
put on plenty of gas and go at fast
pace. Young men with good horses also
find much pleasure in speeding and when
two meet race is certain-Saturday and
Sunday nights lovers of sports are almost
sure to see chase if they happen out
that way The fast driving of autos, by
town and country people. is wearing the
road considerably, and ere long the cry
of rough streets will again be heard. So
long as the Board of Commissioners make
no effort to prevent speeding, just that
long will the practice continue.

Old Soldier Dies In Poverty.

Waynesboro, Pa, May John
Storm, a veteran Of the Civil War,
who was found Tuesday night in a
shanty here, died yesterday morning.
He was 70 years old, and was born
in Smithshurg, Md.
Mr.. Storm was unmarried and dur
ing the last several months had led
the life of a recluse. When Chief Of
Police S. W. Staley missed him and
investigated he found the man lying
across the bed, stiff from cold. There
was no fire in the house and no signs
of anything to eat.
Mr.. Storm enlisted in the Thirteenth
Maryland Infantry in 1861, and
served throughout the Civil War. He
came to Waynesboro shortly after the
war was over. He is survived by
several nephews and two nieces.
