Big Vote PoIIed Here.
Hard Work By Both Men And
Women In District.

Another Presidential election has past,
an election in which more people were
interested than ever before, and at which
more votes were polled than at any cleo
ton ever held in this country. The grant
ing of suffrage to women is the reason
for this. Prior to the election the best
of politicians were kept guessing as to
what results would be, much depending
on how the women voted.
If women in other districts throughout
the county worked to get their women
friends to register and vote as did Thur
mont women. it is certain they showed
the oldtime male workers that they could
bring about results.
In Thurmont at seven O'Clock in the
morning about one hundred persons had
voted, man, OF these berg women.
Around eight O'Clock things began
warming ny properly automobiles going
in every direction to bring in women to
the polls. The little rain during the
mo: ming Gid not stop the work. and at
noon more than 0 had cast their bal
lots.
Soon after dinner rain began falling
heavy, but still hundreds came in and
voted, the polls closing at p. m. with
1874 votes cast out of possible 1929.
The party leaders were well pleased
with results in this district.
The counting began about eight o'clock
and continued until between 2 and a.
m. Wednesday.
The result in this district was as fol-
lows:
Precinct No. l, Harding $40; Weller 344;
Zihlnan 248; Cox 80; Smith "a, Mish 76.
Precinct No. 2, Harding 800; Weller 32l;

Dance A Success.

Some party from York, Pa, brought
an orchestra to Thurmont last Friday
night and gave public dance in Town
Hall. Ladies and men were charged ad
mission to the Hall, and it is stated the
receipts for the evening were near sixty
dollars. The folks here say they had a
delightful time, and the promoter of the
dance gave notice that he would come
again ere long. 1t is also stated that
some person sliced tire on one of the
cars here from York.

Halloween was celebrated here about
three nights by the boys and girls of ten
der years. Pumpkin lanterns were in
evidence, corn, paper. sawdust Uttered
the streets. Dray wagons. buggies, lad,

bile into the front entrance of the High
School building. Somebody found bug
gy shaft broken, somebody had wagon
wheels to collect. But it's all over until
another year.
DIR. and Mrs. j. H. Prudhomme gave
a party for the amusement of about as
little folks, and they all had grand time.

In a recent issue of your paper you
gave prominence to story of some
alleged musical gaming machines be-
ing seized and of my being brought
into court and paying a fine of s25
and costs on charge of having
gambling machines in my possession.
While you stated the facts so far as
they stand upon the records of the
court, if the true facts were shown it
would be a different story
| feel that in this matter | have
been unfairly treated | entered
court and paid fine when | did not
fully understand the CHARGE against
me and pleaded non contendere when
| did not know this was an admission
og guilt Had | known the facts I
would not have made such plea |
have since asked that the case be re-
opened and that | be given a public
hearing on the charge AGAINST me,
but this privilege has been denied.

to this letter in your news

fol the club members and their
friends a rare musical treat. The
artists were Mrs. Margaret Gorham

friends and new, with selections
which showed her remarkable COM
mand of one of the noblest of in
struments, the pipe organ. The
Scotch Fantasia was verv rleasing,
and was oiven prolonged annlause.
Miss Bertha Wesselhoeft Swift,
who came here first through Mrs.

friends by her generous giving of her
fine talents for Red Cross and 9TH

SATURDAY, SEPT. II, 1920
POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS

The situation regarding the States
attorneyship of Caledonia county Is
so one-sided that there has been some
laxiety among the friends of James
b. Campbell in voicing their staunch
support of his denomination. This
paper has been one of the negligent
ones. Mr.. Campbell has a record as
states attorney in this county that
treasures him of the re-nomnaton
by vote Of three to one over his
opponent. His record in every de
tail shows a fearless upholding Of
law and oldr and the stern prose
cution of all violators Of the law.
Every person who has the good
name and the best interests of Gale
donia county at heart will vote for
the denomination Of James b. Camp
bell. Those who fear the law and its
enforcement will probably vote
against him.
Certain anonymous contributions,
poems, etc, plainl the work of non
Republicans and lawbreakers, which
have been distributed at the 18th
hour, have stirred the many friends
of Mr. Campbell to action to see that
there is no question of his renomina-
ton at Tuesdays primaries.
The Big Rally SATURDAY. night will
be two ring circus with the CUB

the Congressional candidates in an
other. No one will want to miss the
double performance. Women are

RAD1UM SCHOOL CLOSES "
YEAR WITH HONORS.

The Radium school closed for yaca-
ton Friday after most successful
school year. The teachers, Miss Bessie
Setback and Miss Olga Bloomsness,
deserve great credit for the excellent
work accomplished. We are indeed
fortunate to have, them both returning
to our school next year.
Both pupils and teachers felt pleased
that the Radium school won first prize
from the state for having done the
greatest amount of health crusade work
OF any school in Marshall county.
This is the first year Radium has en-
tered the Bread Club project but won
second prize in the county. Edith Knoll
won this honor for the school.
Aside of these hOnOrS won. the school
work accomplished has been of the
highest standard.
The Little Citizens League most
pleasantly entertained "the Mothers''
Friday afternoon. Every mother was
impressed by the good business form
in which the children managed the
club meeting, and by the ease with
which they rendered their program.
This good training will have lasting
effects upon the children.
We cannot enough compliment the
teachers and pupils for the good work
done during the school year.
Happy vacation to all.
