A Reflection On Thurmont.

Asa citizen of Thurmont l wish to
protest against such ruffianism as was
shown at recent date in our Town Hall.
Unless square deal is given those who
pay rental for our hall it will certainly
place the whole town in a bad light to
strangers coming into our com munity.
1t is the Mayors duty to see that no
such disgracefuI affairs occur here.
whether by the rough element from a
near by section. or of our own town.
Unless presenting obscene plays or
entertainments there is no justification
for gu h trough housing as was done
at this particular time.
Who is going to see that like event
will not happen again?

Want 4 New Home.
This State Asked To Provide A
Farm For Maryland Industrial
Training School For Girls.

Directors of the Maryland Training
School for Girls one of the most useful
institutions taken under State control,
will appear before the Joint Committee
OF Finance and Ways and Means. when
hearings are granted to urge an appro-.
priation of $3.50, Zoo. 90 toward the pur-
chase, equipment and maintenance of q
farm for the use of this school,
1t is now located at Carey and Baker
Streets, Baltimore, and the buildings as
well as the location are wholly unsuitable
for their purposes. There are now cared
for nearly 100 girls committed to the in
stitution by the courts. If these are to
receive the care and attention required
to wean them from an undesirable life,
the State must furnish the mems and
the surroundings.
Governor Ritchie's attention has been
directed to the Importance OF making
the environment more attractive If sa It's
factory results are to be obtained, and
he has promised to give the matter con-
sideration.
A Reformatory situated as is the
present home is not conclusive to- the
redemption of hayward girls. What is
required is the freedom of the country.
and lifting the nervous strain under
which they have lived
|. The plan is to acquire farm with
cottages, where gardening, stock and
poultry raising can be carried on. Under
existing conditions the Managers have
done remarkably we'll. but they, are
handicapped. This is the only state In
stitution for the care and uplift of way
ward girls and deserves encouragement.

Cold Hall.

Is 1t not time some action is taken
with reference to the heating plant of
our Town Hall?
Either the system is wrong or it is not
given proper attention.
Winter affairs will have to be aban-
doned if one cannot be assured of COM
Portable quarters.
No rent should be charged for a hall
so cold people cannot remain in it-much
less full charge made.
Cannot the Town commissioners ar
range some satisfactory plan and see
that it is put into practice? Where lies
the responsibility?

Falls On Ice.

On Tuesday morning of this week, one
of the horses driven by Mr.. Otto Beall
in his milk wagon, slipped and fell on
the ice on Main street near the square.
Every time the animal attempted to get
up it would slip and go fat on the ice,
its shoes being smooth. After many eff
forts the horse gave up. Finally some
one got barrel skid from one of the
stores. The horse was rolled on the
skid and then lifted high enough to
stand erect and left down on its feet.

New Street Car To Race Train.

Henry Ford announces his new gaso-
line-driven street car is almost ready,
and he is so proud of the contraption
that he will let it compete with the VOL
VERNE, the fast train of the Michigan
Central Railroad, in a run to Chicago,
provided the Michigan Central officials
are willing. The car is now being as
sembled and will be ready for demon
stration which Mr.. Ford plans to make
on the Detroit street railway system.
If it is successful and if Mayor Couzen's
municipal ownership plan Is adopted on
April 5, it is not unlikely that they will
become fixture on Detroit's streets.
One of the interesting features of the
new car is that apparently the motors
are to be fitted for operation with alco-
hol as fuel. This was indicated by MIR.
Ford's reply to a question about the
statement of Henry l.. Doherty, that
gasoline driven cars could not supplant
electric ones, because the worlds supply
of oil would be exhausted in 80 years.
Il am now making the best fuel my
tractors can use out of straw" said Mr..
Ford. I've got an inexhaustible sup
ply of fuel on my farm, over there across
the road. believe the day is coming
when we will extract the alcohol ont of
fruit for fuel and use the rest as food.
I'm putting up $4,000 plant now to
manufacture alcohol from straw alone
just to show people,"

There was quiet wedding at the
home of Mrs. Matte Colliflower on
Tuesday January q. Her daughter
Belva enc was married to Leslie Dor
sey of Frederick. For number of
years the bride has been employed as
bookkeeper with Halter & Co., Insur-
ance Agents, IN Frederick. Mr.. Dorsey
has been engaged in farming but will in
the future reside in Baltimore. Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Dorsey and Mr.. and Mrs.
John Pittinger. uncle and aunt of the
bride W. re present to wish the married
couple all manner of joy and gladness.
There is report that 1.-THE Old Maids
Club" will give all entertainment at the
church on Saturday, February 2lst.
As it is leap year our bachelor friends
will find it easy to make 1920 the happiest
year of their lives. They need not be
timid about the matter of popping the
question. The fair ladies will not hest
tate to relieve them of all bashfulness
and procrastination.
On Sunday the relatives and friends of
Miss Ella Weller, our efficient postmis-
tress, were glad to welcome her home
again. For nearly two months she had
been in the hospital at Frederick. She
will still have to use a wheel chair and
crutches for some time, but the author
tiles ut The hospital assured her that her
limbs would be fully restored in due time.
She at once got busy in Strengthening
out the affairs at the postoffice. How
ard and Florence Colliflower are minis
tering to her needs and are making ev-
erytbing as easy for her as possible.
The stormy weather and icy roads have
cut down the attendance at Sunday
School and church. but those who could
come have found encouragement and
help by coming up to the house of the
Lord. We believe we can count on splen-
did audiences when the weather becomes
more favorable.

you are, and we will wait and see how
much more cold weather comes this way.

Auto Slips From Road.

On Monday last while travelling the
State Road, MIR. Peter N. Hammaker
accidentally got his Franklin limousine
against tree. The road was very icy
and the wheels began to slip and before
stop could be made the side of the car
struck the tree. A fender was damaged
and one of the front glasses broken.
1t is said that the matter of giving
part of the road to passing car is very
dangerous because of the wheels skid
ding on the ice.
