WINS BIG CAMEL
On Monday evening, the Oakland
High School defeated the fast Kitz-
miller High School boys in an interesting
game of basket ball. The game was
exceedingly fast. and closely contested
throughout. The score was tied at
four different times, only to have
one team or the other forge to the
front for point or two. The Kitzmiller
boys were leading by two points, just
three minutes before the game ended.
Captain Scott quickly tied the score, and
Hinebaugh led with point from foul
pitch. Every player on each team
played stellar game, and must be COM
mended for the spirit of friendliness and
good will that was shown throughout
the entire game. Again and again were
the spectators amazed by a thrilling
feat of guarding, or pitching. The
student body turned out to cheer for
both teams. The cheering from the
audience was very pleasing part of
the game.

BUYING Al HOME.

The citizens of this community when
ever possible, as it invariably is, should
buy the things that they need from the
local merchants. This is the spirit of
cooperation which will help the town
to grow and in time make it a bigger
and better market place.
We don't want you to pay more here
for what you can get cheaper some
where else, but use your common sense.
You know that no man in a town a
hundred miles away can send you an
order by mail, pay the expenses of his
catalogues and get a profit without
charging you more than your home
merchant. Besides to get the merchan-
disc ordered, you will have to send your
money in advance and you will run the
risk of getting stuck.
That is just plain every day common
sense; it's not advice. Local merchants
usually take a pride in handling the
best of everything while mail order
houses only hunt the cheapest things
they can sell. Whether they last or
not is immaterial-you can't see them
about it and they will not hear you
grumble. They can sell you shoddy
stuff cheap but your local merchant will
give you goods that are standard at a
reasonable price.

FUNERAL OF MRS.
SUSAN Nj. MILLER
Was Conducted Sunday Morning
From Her Residence in Oakland.

The funeral of Mrs. Susan NJ. Miller,
whose studded death occurred at her
residence, the Commercial Hotel, which
she owned and managed for long term
of years, on last Thursday morning.
was conducted in the parlors of the
hotel Sunday morning at 10 o'clock, the
Rev. W. M. Shultz, pastor of St. Paul's
M. E. church, being in charge. He was
assisted by DR.. j. c. Ely, of the Pres
byterian church, and by Rev. o. A.
Bremen, pastor of the Lutheran church
The music was furnished by members
of the choirs of the Methodist and
Lutheran churches, when selections were
beautifully sung by the M. E. quartette
and solo by Miss Grace talkenstein.
Mrs. Miller was aged Is years and
was the only surviving sister of the
late Daniel E. Offutt. She was born at
Frostburg, Allegany county, and came
to Oakland some thirty years ago with
her family. Her husband died shortly
after the removal to Oakland. The
surviving members of her immediate
family are Mrs. Davis, of Frostburg:
Mrs. Charles A. Deffinbaugh, Misses
Gertrude, Mamie aud Margaret Miller,
of Oakland, and son, Mr.. j. Edward
Miller, of Frostburg. Another son, the
late George M. Miller, of Oakland.
died several years ago.
The funeral services at home were
very impressive, DR.. !Shultz's remarks
being based upon passage of scripture
from the book of Micah. Following
the service the remains were conveyed
to the Oakland cemetery and were in
tered. The floral contributes to the
memory of this good woman were many
and very beautiful The pail bearers
were Messrs. A. D. Naylor, Jos. E.

PREPARE FOR THE INEVITABLE.

The positive statement from Wash
ington that the German-American stu
alton IS such that President Wilson has
mo present intention of going before
Congress to discuss it in any way"
should not lull anyone in the United
States into feellng:of security as to
the immediate future. All such state
men.s are good for the moment of the
utterances only. Even before the re-
porters have Transcribed their notes
the situation may have changed. Though
many days may elapse before what the
President may consider an overt act is
committed by Germany, it hangs just
beyond so long as the Kaiser's last
submarine campaign declaration re-
mains unmodified. Evidently the Var
rowdale prisoners are to be released:
the peremptory demand sent t. Berlin
from Washington last Saturday hardly
will change that situation. Other pend
ing differences may be adjusted. but
unrestricted U-boat.operations against
peaceful commerce are. bound to bring
a state of war
That being true, every report of in
creased activity toward preparing the
country for the inevitable (barring
only Germany's retreat from her I'M
tenable position) mustj be welcome to
the people. Altogether sensible was
the Navy Department action yester-
day in awarding to American manu-
fscturers contracts for some $1,000
projectiles for big guns which would
have gone to English makers had not
the British government ordered other
wise. The United! Estates must be self
sustaining.in war. If it Is deficient in
any respectinow is the time to find it
out and remedyIthe condition. The way
to do that is, to put up to American
manufacturers theiwork they must do.
The home bidders on the shell orders
have made concessions to the govern
ment on price and time of delivery.
There can't be no question of their
ability to: produce the Egoods as re-
CURED. Now that they have the chance
there is no doubt they will do so. Thev
will be found in all respects altogether
patriotic.

MOVE FOR PIKE
TO PIKE" HIGHWAY
Commissioner Blacks Proposed
Road is Headed in Direction
Of FrOstburg.

The county commissioners of Somer-
set county, Pennsylvania, according to
last weeks issue of the Meyersdale
Republican, have filed petitions for
leave to build four. miles of Pike to
Pike" highway, which means a con-
Meeting link between the Lincoln High
way and the National Pike, or In other
words, the Old Trail Highway. This
action of the commissioners is a pre-
paratory move for the construction of
modern highway from Brotherton, on
the Somerset Bedford Pike, to Berlin,
a distance of something less than four
miles.
The commissioners action, it is
said, is the first step in the plan of
State Highway Commissioner Frank
B. Black to connect the Lincoln High
way and the old National Pike with an
improved cross-country road. Com
missioner Blacks plan contemplates
the construction of the trans-county
boulevard from Jennerstown south
ward as far as Berlin this year the
road from Berlin to the National Pike
skirting the southern border of the
county along the Maryland line to be
built in 1918. The State Highway De-
partment, through Commissioner Black,
has agreed to bear all of the expenses
of making durable road from Jenners-
town to Brotherton via Sipesvill and
Somerset, if the county builds the short
stretch from Brotherton to Berlin.
The road from Brotherton to Berlin
will cost between 5000 and $40, 1000
varying according to the type of con-
struction, Judge William H. Ruppel,
of the Somerset county court, has
made decree approving the commits
sioner's action, and the matter will be
laid before the February court Grand
Jury on March l.
Just at what point in Maryland the
proposed pike to pike" road will in
tersect with the National Pike is not
known at this time.

In this great city that has no end;

And never see my old friends face;
For Life is swift and terrible race.

And he rang mine. We were younger

And now we are busy, tired men
Tired with playing foolish game;
Tired with trying to make a name.

THE JINX SCOTCHED
Oakland Collegians Surprised
Themselves by Winning.

The Oakland Collegians turned the
tables on the Frostburg Big Five, on
the floor of the latter team at Frost
burg last Friday evening, coming
through with their first win of the sea-
son by a.score of 1928. The first half
ended 1710 in favor of the Frostburg
team, but in the second half the Oak
land bunch came to lite and displayed
some of their old-time form, starting
off with sensational shot from the
centre of the floor by ReIdler, and
thereafter playing the home boys
literally off their feet. Bolden put up
a crack game at center, and Sincell and
Sanner had their passing down to a fine
point, caglng II goals between them.
The victory has put new life into the
team and we may look for more wins
from now on. The lineup and score:
