CUMBERLAND'S NEW BANK.
Financial Institution With Large Cap<
ital Will Soon be in New Home.

The latest in everything that goes
to equip very modern bank and
trust company will be used in the re-
modelling of the Third National Bank
building for the purposes of The Lib
erty Trust Company, the recently or
ganized one and a-half million dollar
banking institution of Cumberland.
Work is now we'll under way and the
estimated date for completion is No
vember |.
When the changes have been conf
pleted, the entire first floor of the
cOmmodious six story building will be
used by the trust company. In all the
changes particular attention is being
given to the convenience of customers.
The public space in the new inter-
Tor will be ample and on three sides
will be surrounded by the banking ac-
Invites. Private rooms for both men
and women in the transaction of their
banking business are provided, and
there will be consultation, committee
and officers rooms. The elevator viii
will be rear entrance. An entirely
new front will be built of storm, mar

Trust Company will be excelled by
few, even in the larger cities. Being
the largest bank of it's kind in this
section and because of the diversity
of its powers, it will prove long
wanted convenience to the public in
general and to those who transact
business in particular.

GARRETT COUNTY SUNDAY
SCHOOL ASSOCIATION
Schools On the Honor ROll-Address
of State Secretary.


Since the issue of The Republican
of last week a list of the Sunday
schools of the county which to date
have complied with the requirements
necessary in order to win a place on
the Honor Roll has been compiled as
follows:
Steiding Union Sunday School, of
near Swanton; st. Johns Lutheran,
of the Cove. Church of the Breathern,
Accident; Pleasant Valley Wesley NJ.
E., of near Mt. Lake Park; Loeb
Lynn United Breathern; Red House
Lutheran; Union Glade, of near Bit
finger; Cherry Glade Amish, of near
Bittinger; Deer Park Union and Deer
Park Methodist; Friendsville Union;
Selbysport M. E.; NJ. E., Lutheran and
st. Johns Reformed, of Grantsville;
New Germany M. E.; Trinity Reform
ed, of New Germany; Maple Grove
Breathern, of near Grantsville; Mill
Run; Crellin Union, and Oakland
Presbyterian. Other schools have
nearly reached the mark and as soon
as complete reports have been filed
these will be given the proper credit.
1t has been suggested that the super
intendents of any schools not appear
ing in the above list who desire to have
their schools on the Honor Roll for the
county for 1920 should write the coun-
ty president, Mr.. E. R. Jones, of Oak
land, for information as to the re-
quirements not as yet met
The goals set for the coming year
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1920-07-29

In America the Sunday Schools in
recent years have lost 3,60O,000 and
Maryland doubtless has shared in this
loss According to the United States
census reports of religious bodies for
the ten years ending 1916 it took IA
Presbyterians year of time to make
a net gain of one, 90 Methodist Epis-
copalians year to make a net gain
of one and on an average of 81 prot
estants to make this gain.
As member of the Sunday school
a man stands four times the chances
of becoming a Christian as he other
wise would have stood. 1t is, then,
very important to build up our Sunday
school enrolment in a conservative
way, not merely making good the loss,
but also in a systematic way to make
goals to double Sunday school enrol
ment on ten per cent. basis each year
which will take 10 years to effect this
great advance.
There is only one Sunday school
specialist on full time for the whale
state of Maryland and this person
can visit county only about twice a
year which is not enough supervision.
The Educational department of the
State of Maryland has shown in a
study which it has put forth the need
of supervision. The great department
has one supervisor to every rs or 30
store of Stewart & Co. of Baltimore.
clerks. The John HOPKINS Hospital
has one supervisor to every 4 or 5
nurses. and so on in every department
of activity; and the schools now pro
vide a second supervisor in counties
where there are more than 100 teach
ers. It is estimated that in the States
east of the Mississippi. 25 per cent. of
educational effort has been lost thru
the lack of supervision."
The five counties of MONTGOMERY.
Frederick. Washington. Alleeganv and
Garrett form the Western Division of
MARYLAND and have a total of 47O Sun
dav schools, $500 officers and teachers
and . total Sunday school population
of 10000. The propertv valuation of
this Western Division is now 537 mil
lions of which 3O1 millions have been
added since 1901. a very decided gain
in wealth. The total population for
the territory mentioned is 217 900
Approximately S275.OOO is spent each
year in this division on dav or public
schools and we might ask TO whether
or not it would be wise to spend as
much as five per cent. of this amount
