ACCIDENT A MECCA
Many People Expected There Sun

The people Of Accident which dis
trict has furnished large quotas of men

siye preparations to entertain numbers
of people who are expected there on

and Red Cross flag from an eigty-five
foot flag staff which has been erected
on the public school grounds by the
patriotic people of the town and sur
rounding community.
The National emblem is a beautiful
bunting flag II by Is feet; the service
flag contains 90 stars which represents
the number of men sent from the dis
tlict to the army and navy.
The affair has been arranged by
committee appointed for the purpose
which committee has also secured the
services of Congressman Frederick N
Zlhlman, who will make the principal
address. There is a possibility that
former Mayor E. Clay Timanus, of
Baltimore. will also be present and ad-
dress the assembled people.
A general invitation to every Garrett

Accident to be present on Sunday and
they are expected to come and spend

S17,5S5 w. S. S. SALES
Accident District Claims To be
the Banner Section.

There is more or less friendly rivalry
in many sections of the county over the
sale of War Savings Stamps and thus
far Accident District seems to be in
the lead, the people of that community
having purchased these little kaiser
swatters" to the amount of $l7.585.
The canvas in the district was made
Systematically by several who interest
ed themselves In the sales and was
kept up until the above sum was re-
allied. Accidents example may well
be followed by other districts in the
county. The war savings stamp is a
good Investment, netting a 41 per cent.
income and they can be redeemed at
ten days notice.
Buy War Savings Stamps as an in
vestment; buy War Sayings Stamps
with which to ''swat" the kaiser.
