GARRETT COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL
Large ENROLMENT at Beginning of the
Term Augurs Well for Future

Large Enrolment at Beginning of the
Term Augurs Well for Future
That the people of Garrett county
appreciate the opportunity for edu-
cation afforded by the new high school
building is indicated by the fact that
the high school opened this year with
the largest enrolment in its history,
more than eighty students being en-.
rolled in the first year class alone. 1t
is especially interesting and significant
that more than half of the new first
year class consists Of boys. For a
number of years the number of girls
has greatly exceeded that of the boys.
This has been true of the principal
high schools throughout the country
and it is very gratifying to see that
the trend now seems to be in the
other direction and to hope that the
number of boys who avail themselves
Of the advantages of high school ed
ucation will be equal to the number of
girls.
The faculty of the high school this
year includes two new teachers, Miss
Agnes E. Thomas. who teaches Eng
lish and Algebra. and Miss Eleanor
Wadsworth. who has charge of the
department of Domestic Science. Miss
Thomas is graduate of Goucher Col
lege, Baltimore. and Miss Wadsworth
of the Beachwood School near Phila-
delphia. Both of these new teachers
are making a good impression among
the students.
The high school is indebted to the
liberality and public spirit of Mr.. R. Z.
Sliger, president of the Board of Ed
ucation, for the gift of the fine. large
American flag which proudly floats
from the staff on the roof of the new
building.
Perhaps the best opportunity ever
afforded the people of Oakland and
vicinity of hearing real artist on the
violin will be the concert to be given in
the auditorium in the new high school
building on Friday evening, October
"a, by Axel Skovgaard, the distin-
guished Danish violinist. Mr.. Skov-
gard, will be assisted by Mrs. SHOW
gard, as accompanist and piano So
list, and by a vocalist of reputation
and ability, Further announcement
of this event will be made later:

ONE OF Washington's choicest SOU
" venlrs Of the days before the last
few wars IS the Octagou House. This
substantial old style residence does
not conform to the regulation octaEon
pattern Of the geometry books but #
does have eight sides, as people who
stop TO count them invariably report
When John TayIoe, one OF the
wealthiest men in the United States.
was planning a new town residence.
George Washington prevailed upon
him to choose a site in the new Ma
tiOnal Capital The result was the
Octagon House. built in 1901. not far
from the Executive Mansion.
It was natural that when the white
house was burned by the British in
1914. president Madison ana mistress
Dolly should be invited TO the finest
residence in Washington, the Octagon
House. Here they lived for a year.
During that time the charming mis-
tress Dolly made the house noted as
the center Of fashionable society. Her
balls and receptions outshone those OF
any Of her associates. and even. 40
was reported, those OF Martha Wash
ington's regime.
from its high place as the court OF
nation, its days Of romance were
revived by Anna Katherine Green
when she made II the scene Of her
famous story. The FiIigree Ball"
In the time Of its glory. the Octa-
gon House claimed a ghost. a tradi-
ton which called forth many delight
fuI feminine shivers and masculine
reaEsurauces. But Of late wears the
airy viscitor IS heard OF no more. Pos
sibly IL has LEFT Its chosen haunt in
disgust now that the days Of revelry
and pomp are gone.
Even the presence Of a prosaic
modern family in the house would be
an inducement TO the spparition 20
remain But the Octagon House IS
given over TO the business proceed
ings OF the Fine Art Commission.
When a house ceases to be occupied
at night any first class ghost knows
that is done for and departs quietly
with a final groan.
