CHARTER REFUSED
Treasury Department Turns
Down Application.

The Comptroller of the Currency re-
Gently approved an application for a
charter for new national bank in a.
certain Western State, as there was,
apparently, and opening for a bank in
the community in which it was to be es-
tablished and the applicants seemed to
be men of responsibility and means and
some prominence.
Subsequently, doubt arose as to the
LOYALTY and patriotism of the applicants.
and it was ascertained that although
The six applicants for the charter were
reported to be men of considerable
means-seVeral of them claiming to be
worth quarter of million dollars or
more-the aggregate amount of Liberty
Bonds OF the first and second issues 10
which TIE six applicants had subscribed
was only 5000, several of the applicants
for the charter having taken no Liberty
bonds at all, and their aggregate sub
scriptions to the Red Cross had been
only $149.
The Comptroller on April 20, revoked
the authority given for the organization
of this proposed national bank, on the
ground that men of means in these
times who show SO little patriotism and
so little public spirit in the matter of
making subscriptions to Liberty bonds
and to the Red Cross are unfit to be
placed in charge Of any national bank.

of interest and regard: that he would
accept $50 bond as the gift of the
people of Kitzmiller, and wished to sug
gest that the remaining $50 be donated
to the Red Cross. This was graceful
act upon both sides and donors and re
cipient are to be congratulated. 1t will
long be matter of local memory and
will go down as a very pleasant incident
in the history Garrett county is ably
helping to write.
Following the series of meetings by
the speakers held at various points on
Tuesday, the party left Oakland yester-
day afternoon for the northern towns
of the county. stopping first at Nc
Henry where an enthusiastic meeting
was conducted and where subscriptions
amounting to IS, 200 were taken.
Accident. at four o'clock, was the
next stop where the meeting was held
in the public school building. Here a
surprise awaited the speakers and when
the cards were turned in and totalled
up it was learned that subscriptions
amounting to $40, 900 had been made.
Grantsville was the point of meeting
for last night for the Baltimore party,
while Prof. Rathbun, accompanied by
Mr.. McGrath, of Baltimore, went on to
Finzel, where meeting had been ar
ranged for earlier in the day and where
quite crowd had assembled to greet
the speakers. Finzel's contribution to
the cause of the Third Liberty Loan
amounted to $4,000.
The Grantsville meeting was enthu-
siastIc and the people OF the community
responded nobly to the cause. their total
subscriptions amounting to $43, 200.
At Accident in the afternoon the sum
of s25 and at Grantsville like amount
was collected with which to purchase
for Capt Baker a $50 bond in appreci-
alton of his services.
The speakers left Grantsville this
morning for Hancock, while those ac-
companying them from Oakland re-
turned last night.
Garrett county went away oyer the
top, her subscriptions amounting to
$2S7, AGO. more than $35, 900 of this
amount having been privately subscrib-
ed through the two banks of Oakland,
this making the county-seat's subscrip-
ton to the Third Liberty Loan Sl37, $50.
Every town in the county which has
thus far been visited by speakers in the
interest of the Loan will receive an
Honor Liberty Loan flag, which record
is hard to excel, If it can be done in any
other section of the entire country
Garrett has gone over the top!

LAW BEING ENFORCED
Twenty-Five Convictions at Jen-
nings for Violation.

Under the provisions of the School
Attendance Law. the county school
authorities proceeded against twenty
two patrons of the jennings school, the
basis of the proceedings being that the
principal of the Jennings school would
not permit the children to attend the
school because they had not been
properly vaccinated.
The hearings were held before Magis-
trates Edward l. West of Oakland, and
Thomas H. Bittinger of Grantsyille,
last Friday morning.
Convictions were found in each case,
fines paid aggregating $87 so and each
defendant obligated himself to States
Attorney E. r. Jones, who represented
the State IN the prosecution of the
cases, that he or she would have the
child who had been excluded from
school on account of not being vaccinat-
ed. vaccinated at once, which work was
entered upon by a physician Monday
morning of this week.
The County and State Board of Edu-
cation requires rigid execution of the
State school laws, and this means that
every child in the county who attends
school shall be vaccinated, as we'll as
that no child shall be absent from
school hacause he or she has hpen eY-
cluded therefrom by the principal be-
cause such child has not been properly
vaccinated. In the course of the hear
ing the States Attorney quoted State
law in which the point was developed
that any teacher who permits child to
attend his or her school who has not
been successfully vsccinated subjects
himself or herself to a minimum fine of
ten dollars for such method of proce-
dure.
