Welcoming French War Brides
To America.

Extending the hand of hospitality and
greetings to the thousands of French
girls, who are entering the United States
as the wives of nations heroes is one
of the late activities of the American
Red Cross.
Realizing that first impressions are
lasting and that the enforced separation
from their husbands, after landing afford
ed fertile field for welfare work and
the spreading of the spirit of comrade-
ship, the big humanitarian organization
was quick to befriend them and to re-
main with them until they were united
again with their husbands, as well as to
see them safely settled in their new homes
no matter in what part of the country
they intend to locate.
At Newport News, Va, where 375
overseas brides have arrived during the
six weeks ending July Is, the duty of
meeting them and arranging for their
comfort, while they awaited the dis
charge of soldier husband or his assign
ment to regular army camp or post,
has been given to Miss N. F. Wilson of
Seattle, Washington, who has proved
herself well chosen to head the Red Cross
committee of reception.
Miss Wilson spent nearly four years
abroad and speaks French fluently. Her
sojourn in France has made her all the
more desirable as the representative of
the Civilian Relief Department of the
Potomac Division of which w. A. Harris
of Washington, D. C. is the director.
Bringing war brides to this country is
now being accomplished with the ex-
cellent cooperation of the Y. w. c. A.
at French embarkation ports and on
shipboard. The matter was put up to
the Red Cross, originally, which cabled
the government. officially, that the Y.
W. c. A. was taking charge of trans
portation. passports, and lodging in port
cities, as well as the ocean voyages OF
these women and it was later arranged
that these two organizations were tc
care for them when they arrived in the
United States at the debarkation points.
At the barracks in Brest there are ac-
commodations for five hundred. The
army supplies the bed and the kitchen
equipment. the Red Cross gives the liv-
ing room furnishings and the Hostess
House feeds them. with the Red Gross
assisting in supplying the food. In othel
embarkation ports it is practically thu
same.

Want Name Changed.

Hagerstown. the great hustling city of
Western Maryland has about become
tired of having "town" attached to its
name. 1t is proposed to take steps to
have the wv" removed and the city
known as Hagerston. This sounds good
but whether the growth of the city would
be increased is uncertain. Growing rapid
ly as she is at present. it would apparent
ly matter little whether the last syllable
is "town" or "ton." The change would
save time and ink in the writing, the
same as when our name Mechanicstown
was changed to Thurmont.

Killed On Railroad.
Victims Death Due To Own
Negligence.

Negligence.
On Tuesday of this week John Nelson
Barton, well known resident of thi
place was killed on the Western Mary
land Railroad about quarter of mill
east of Thurmont.
For many wears Barton has lived with
his daughter and son-in-law, Mr.. ant
Mrs. Richard Kelley at point on what
is known as the Apples Church road where
the Western Maryland railroad crosses
said road, and has used the railroad
track almost daily when coming to town.
A few minutes prior to the accident
Tuesday, Mr.. Barton entered the house
and inquired of his granddaughter Miss
Lillian Kelley as to the whereabouts of a
wrench. Whether ne found the wrench
is not known. but he left the house and
went on the railroad. A freight engine
was placing some cars on a siding across
the main track, and it is supposed he
was paying attention to what was being
done.
The hour was TO- 35 and the passenger
train going west was due, and fast APP
preaching. According to witnesses the
engineer blew for the crossing, and i'm
mediately blew danger signals. Looking
around to see what was causing the ex-
ira whistles, Mr.. Rob't Eigenbrode. sec
ton foreman, saw the engine strike Bar
ton. He was thrown high as the engine
his body striking the headlight and then
falling on the pilot of the engine, and a
match with which he was evidently going
to light his pipe remained in his hand.
Not aware he had struck the man the
engineer continued toward the depot and
inquired of Eigenbrode as to the where
abouts of the man. The train was stop
Barton's body. The train moved on to
the station about 100 feet away and the
body taken from its resting place.
Miss Lillian Kelley who was at her
home saw the accident also.
The train was in charge of conductor
John Fauver. and engineer E. Veech
A report of the accident was made to
the Justice of the Peace Rob'tE Cadow.
He at once notified deputy. sheriff Lidie,
and an inquest ordered by railroad officials.
Twelve men, Messrs Rob't Creager,
Geo. Bussard, Howard Bussard, JAS.
Waesche, E. l.. Root, Chas. Speak, Jas.
Fl. Firor, VIM. T. Weller. VIM. j. Freeze,
Luther Munshower, R. o. Eyler and E.
E. Black were summoned, who, after
hearing testimony from DR.. E. c. Kef-
auver and Mr.. Eigenbrode, and viewing
the body, rendered verdict that Barton
came to his death through his own neg
ligence, and exonerated the railroad
trainmen and all off cials from blame.
The body was considerably injured,
both legs being broken at several places,
ribs and neck broken and skull fractured.
The body was taken in charge by Will
hide & Creeger, funeral directors, and
prepared for burial.
John Nelson Barton was a son of the
late Henry Barton, and was sc years of
age June past. He is survived by one
daughter, Mrs. Richard Kelley. Of his
family he is survived by one brother Mr..
Mahlon Barton, and two sisters, Mrs.
Lewis Troxell and Mrs. Charles Troxell.
Funeral services will be held at IL
o'clock at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Kel-
ley, today, and interment made at APP
Piles church cemetery, Rev. P. E. Helm

has this been taken that efforts have
been made to have the Horticultural
Lecture continued at the Community
Clubs next meeting on August 2lst.
Members from the Franklinville and

and took an active part in the program.
So we'll pleased are all with the work

have decided to join. When the Club
was organized on June 26th about 20
joined. Now the list is fast nearing 100.
The Community Club has been very high
ly recommended by the Reverend Pastor
of St. Anthony's and several visiting
clergy.
Saturday afternoon and evening the
Mt. St. Mary's Benevolent Association
in conjunction with the Community Club
will hold an Autumn Festival and Com
munity Show and free entertainment on
the church lawn. Special attractions
have been secured for the occasion.
Side shows galore, new ball game, also
free entertainment by the Community

large crowd. The members of the
Thurmont Community Club are earnestly
invited to attend. x.

Cure For Dysentery.

"While l was in Ashland, Kansas, a
gentleman overheard me speaking of
Chamberlain Collie aud Diarrhoea Rem
edy," writes William Whitelaw, of Des
Moines, Iowa. "He told me in detail of
what it has done for his family, but more
especially his daughter who was lying at
the point of death with violent attack
of dysentery, and had been given up by
the family physician. Some of his neigh
bors advised him to give Chamberlain 6
Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy, which he
did, and fully believes that by doing Sc
saved the life of his child. He stated
that he had also used this remedy him
self with equally gratifying results"

The Best Plaster.

A piece of flannel dampened with Cham

the seat of pain is often more effectual
for lame back than plaster and does

A Bilious Attack.

When you have bilious attack your
liver fails to perform it's functions. You
become constipated. The food you eat
ferments in your stomach instead of d.
costing. This infiames the stomach and
causes nausea, vomiting and terrible
headache. Take three of Chamberlain 8
Tablets. They will tone up your liver,
clean out your stomach and you will soon
be as well as ever. They only cost a
quarter.

PROGRESS!

Last week we asked you who
had subscribed to the Cham.
Der of Commerce to come in
and pay your subscriptions,
Some have already responded,
but there are others of you
who have neglected to attend
to this. This is of Importance.
The next time you are in town
drop into Mr.. Ludwick's office
and pay up. The executive
committee is now working on
advertising literature and are
lining up a secretary. You
can be of great help if you will
clear this money out of the
way so that we can go right
along with the work before us.
Time spent in work on collect
ing these subscriptions is just
so much time lost.
The C. of C. is beginning to
Justify itself. The GOOD
ROADS committee have been
doing some good work and
everybody will be proud of
this work when we can make
a definite report. The Estan-
cia Chamber Of Commerce is
now carrying advertising mat
ter in several big city papers
and inquiries are coming in
daily. There is a widespread
in cheap farm land.
The back to the land move
ment has taken a fresh hold
upon the imagination of the
American people since the
close of the war. Now is the
opportune time for us in this
valley to get the valley settled
up.
If we will all pull together
we can make more progress
along this line in the next
eight months than we ordin-
arily could in that many years.
So bear in mind that this ex-
ecutive committee is depend
ng onyou to do your part and
tight now your part consists in
paying up your subscriptions.
Now please do not neglect
his but get in and clean these
up at once. =

MEETING OF
COMMERCIAL CLJJR

Why didn't everyone attend
the meeting of the Commercial
Club last Friday night? Those
who did not, do not know what
they missed-good talks, good
music, good things to eat, and
a general good time.
The club was fortunate in
having a meeting just at this
time when there are so MANY
good speakers in town; and
the chairman, DR.. Jameson did
not fail to call them to the
front, to give any advice or
plans they might know, as to
how we can make a hustling
city out of our little town of
Estancia. Judge Mechem, E.
+. Davies, mayor of Santa Fe.
City Attorney Kenney of Santa
Fe, and all the other speakers
were agreed that the most i'm
portant step toward success
was the getting of good roads
in the county.
Mr.. Ludwick, secretary of
the club, made a strong ap-
peal to the people to do their
bit by sending a delegation
backed by all the citizens of
the town who can possibly go
to Santa Fe in a few days to
meet with the Good Roads
Commission and let our wants
be known in the way of good
roads.
The N. NJ. C. railroad has
promised to put down a pump
ing plant on the McGee place
close to town. The object is
to irrigate ten acres of land
which has been donated by
Mr.. McGee.
The Commercial Club with
strong cooperation of the citi-
zens, will be able to accom-
olish some good things, so let
is all help in every way we
;an.
