Rockville, Md, Nov. IA. 1918.

This interesting statement is taken from
the ST. Mary's Beacon
Mr. John T. Morgan, Of Compton, st.
Mary's county. is the father Of 81 children
-23 are living and IL reside at home. His
eldest child is SO years old and the youngest
years He has 7 children married and
8 sons registered under the selective draft.
He also has SO grandchildren. Mr.. Nor
gan is 81 years old and has been married
three times"
Surely this speaks well for the grand old
mother county Of our State. No section
Of Maryland is healthier, all things consid-
cred. Indeed. it is almost immune from
certain dangerous diseases that prevail
elsewhere. Some time ago there was an
old gentleman Mr.. Thomas Ward, who died
at the extreme age OF 10 years. He re-
sided in the northern part Of the county,
near Charlotte Hall.
In the progress Of other sections St.
Mary's has really been lost sight of,
although it was selected by the first settlers
as the choicest part Of the country.
1t will be remembered that, for many
years. St. Marys City. now completely
vanished from earth. was the capital and
most important city in Maryland that the
history of st. Mary's county is the history
of colonial Maryland; and that today this
county offers attractions unsurpassed by
any other. Nearly surrounded by the
waters Of the Potomac. Chesapeake and
Patuxent. its scenery is wonderfully pic
turesque and inspiring and handsomer
sites for residences can be found anywhere
The climate is mild and equable. The soil il
naturally good and responsive to treat
ment while the bold waters that wasl
her shores are teeming with fish, OYSTER
and wild fowl. The lands are cheap anC
the people proverbially hospitable.
These statements may easily be verified
by visit to St. Mary's. The State roaC
from Washington to St. Mary's City is on
of the best.
There are good reasons to believe that
in not many years, this county will be
come the great residence section for Wash
ington and Baltimore capitalists.

In MemOrInm .

In sad but loving memory Of our dear son
Raymond Jerome Poole, who died two
years ago, November II, 1915. aged 81
years and 8 months.
Two long years have passed, dear Raymond,
Since you we're laid to rest,
Oh, RAYMOND, how mourn that day,
But Cod knew what was best.
We stood beside your bedside.
We watched your life depart.
But when they said that you were dead
II nearly broke my heart.
Thou art gone. but not forgotten.
Fresh our love will ever be,
For as long as there is memory
We shall always mourn for thee.
No one knows how we have missed you
In these long years gone by.
When you left US sad and lonely
For your home up In the sky.
Sleep on, dear son and brother, we vii
meet you some sweet day by and by
where parting will be no more.
BY his loving parents,
MR. AND Mrs. JOHN W. POOLE.

NO lights are permitted to be

Mac Leonhardt, who is former

pany with A. E. F. in France. His
letter follows:
Dear Emory:
Il have made several attempts to
mail you a letter, but have been aw-
fully busy and time is precious thing
over here. I am working about IA
hours day (no time and half for
over time ether. and when night
comes l am generally ready for the
hay
Il have seen some pretty sights
Since / have been over here. Some
can tell about and some can not.
To write letter is rather difficult.
THE. farmers all live in small towns
and drive their stock to and from
their farms every day. They pile ma
nure in the front yard, and the barns
and houses adjoin. Most of the build
ings are built adjoining each other
like city block Everything is built
from stone and concrete. Very sell
dom ever see wooden house, or even
any shingles. They are all made from
clay.
The peasants wear wooden shoes,
or most of them do; the wagons have
only two wheels and the brakes work
sometimes something like the wheels
on a linotype which raises and lowers
the magazine. l saw one man taking
eight calves to market in little cart
and he had them all tied together and
lying on their backs. The crops are
all good, and harvesting just started
last week. While ! was at camp in
the U. s., they had their grain al
ready cut
The French people won't drink
water. They use wine mostly, but l
have never seen any Of them drunk.
