500 For Box Bush.

The Manchester correspondent to the
Westminster, Md, Times, in the issue of
July 4th, says:
1.-THE most attractive place in town
last week for men, women and children
was the backyard at the home of VIM.
E. Sharrer where employees were digging
trench around large box bush, the
trench was about three feet deep so they
could get under the roots and enclose the
circle of earth in burlap strongly wrap
ped with ropes. The circle of earth and
tree had weight of ton or more and
they were three days trying to get it on
level ground. They had a number of
blocks and tackle, but when the power
was applied the ropes snapped without a
move, but after bringing to work a hoist
ing machine with wire cables it was got
ten on the level of the yard and put on a
truck and taken to Greenmount and load
ed on fat car for it's destination to
Philadelphia, to become the property of
lady who is fitting out fine suburban
home. Mr.. Sharrer received 500 for
the bush supposed to be hundred years
old, nine feet high. the branches extend
ing eight feet in circumference forming
a fine cool top and will do honor to the
lawn"

Frederick Celebrated.

The celebration held in Frederick last
Friday in honor of the soldier boys from
overseas was largely attended by county
people, but the boys in uniform were to
a degree, scarce.
Thesvery warm weather and the dust
from the track at the Fair Grounds were
two very unpleasant conditions which
helped to take much joy and comfort
from the festivities of the day.
The game of ball between the Ok Fibre
Club and the Brunswick Club was inter-
esting. There was plenty of hot air on
the diamond. and occasionally a cool
breeze came through the grand stand.
The Brunswick team however took the
game home with them. Several times
it looked as though they were going home
before the game was over.
All things considered everybody had a
good time. -

Short On Ice.

Last week the extreme warm weather
put ice plants at various places in the
county to severe test. in fact the plant g
were unable to supply the demand. The
de mand for ice on July 4th added more
to the burden.
The Wisotzkey ice plant in Thurmont
broke down early last week, and it be-
came necessary for the firm to buy ice
for their own use in making ice cream
}. I. Mackley and Son have been buy
ing ice from Frederick for some time,
and they could not secure enough for use
last week.
On Friday evening, July 4th, there
was no ice cream in Thurmopt and the
supply was limited until early this week
because of no ice.
Because of the mild winter little or no
ice was harvested from the streams, and
the demand on ice plants is unusually
heavy at this time.

A French Child Thanks
America.

1t was q grey-blue envelope with the
French postmark one of the many such
which come to a group of warm-hearted
American men and women who have con-
stituted themselves godfathers and god
mothers to the little French children
made fatherless by the war-and this is
the message it held, written laboriously
by Felix Gaizdire to his ''godmother" in
America:
81 read your letter again and again
while watching my cows. Jeanne d Arc
who was only shepherd girl once saved
our fair France. Dear benefactor, |
watch my cattle. Already am brave
and in autumn shall go to school again.
ll"Already l am brave. +" And only
few brief months ago this little lad was
homeless, shuddering away from the
sight of carnage, crushed into restitution
by the merciless toes of his country. A
little work, some cherishing words in a
letter written by an American woman,
and the bruised life was healed again.
There are thousands and thousands OF
such little children in France. Through
the activities of an American organiza-
ton, "The Fatherless Children of France
many of these perishing little folks. like
Felix Gaizdire, we're 'adopted' by warm
hearted Americans between the autumn
of 1917 and the signing of the armistice
an adoption which meant only the writ
ing of friendly letters from time to time
and the furnishing of ten cents day to
help in the child's support at home in
France with those of his own kin. But
thousands more of these children must
be granted chance for life, must be
saved for the world-must have help
given to them until they too can say:
"Already,I am brave. And in the autum n
shall 60 to school again."
A special campaign with Mrs. Walter
S. Brewster of Chicago as chairman is
being undertaken by the Fatherless Chill
dren of France, Room 63b, 40 S. Michi-
gan Avenue, Chicago, for the purpose of
securing help for 10000 more of these
children who should be made brave
again, and whose names were on the
waiting list when the armistice was
signed. This organization co-operates
with similar one in France, of which
Marshal Joffre is the head. The drive
is on-and it costs only 10 cents to care
for child day; So 90 for month; or
$36. so to become godluother or god
father. Such godparent chooses her
own protege boy or girl, as she elects,
from the lists at the organization head
quarters, and is put into direct commun-
ication with the child through correspon-
dence. The small contribution made
supplements the tiny pension of 10 cents
daily allowed each child by the French
Government, but is sufficient to keep
body and soul together,

Only Three DRINKS In Tolls.
First DRY" Saturday Shows
Great Decrease In Arrests;
Cases Drop From
337 To so.

Police magistrates in Baltimore had
little to do Sunday1n handling the usual
Saturday night ''drunks and .disorderlies"
because there were very few cases to be
handled at all. The total number of ar
rests on the first Saturday after war
time prohibition became law was less
than the number of arrests made at one
police station when things were wet.
The figures speak for themselves. The
total number of arrests in Baltimore on
the first dry Saturday was given by the
police as so, whereas more than this
number were made by the police Of the
Central district on June %. But three
'drunks" were arraigned before the
eight magistrates Of the city Sunday and
there was great falling off in the usual
run of disorderly persons, peace disturb
ers and cases of petty stealing. such as
"frisking" drunken men of their watches
and pocketbooks.
But 10 cases were arraigned before
Justice Johansen at the Central Police
Station Sunday morning and of this
number only one was charged with being
drunk. The drunk" said he was a nom
resident and that he got his whiskey
from bootlegger.
Marshal Carter who has been a mem
of thePolice Department for IS years and
who, when lieutenant, wrote as many
as 100 cases on the docket of the Eastern
Police Station on single Saturday night,
was amazed at the change produced by
the absence of the sale of strong liquors.
