NegrOes Buy Automobiles.

A dispatch from Onancock, Va. says
that last Thursday was the banner dav
of the Eastern Shore of Virginia Produce
Exchange, the sales being $4,000 The
million dollar mark would have been
reached, but for the shortage of cars.
1t is estimated that only AZ per cent.
of the potatoes of the Eastern Shore has
been marketed. The price this week has
been from $40 to $ll.50 barrel.
In Accomack many of the large land
owners live in towns and the farms are
run on shares, the tenant often being a
negro.
To own an automobile is the heights of
the average negro's ambition. This sea-
son the receipts from strawberries and
potatoes have been unusual and many
negroes are putting their share of the
farm s income into automobiles. Often
nothing but an automobile to the amount
of their bank account will satisfy. A
demonstration was turned back at the
gate with an $500 car, $1,000 being the
negro's price.

Principal Resigns.
Prof. FL. D. Beachley After 25
Tenders RESIGNATION.

After acting as principal of the Thur
mont High School for 25 of the ~ years
of its existance, Prof. H. D. Beachley
has sent in his resignation.
This news will be great surprise to
his former pupils and his many friends.
Prof. Beachley came to Thurmont fresh
from College and took charge of tie
school in its infancy and he has been
identified with it's entire history. The
difficulties of successfully steering such
an enterprise to the point of ultimate
success can be appreciated only by those
who have experienced similar. PROPOSE
tion. Many obstacles had to be over
come. Since the new High School build
ing has beer completed teaching and dis
cipline has been extremely difficult be-
cause of very faulty heating system
which rendered the school building unfit
and undesirable much of the time during
the winter. In spite of this terrific ham
dicap the school managed to continue its
existence under Prof. Beachley's direc-
tion and continued to turn out pupils who
were admitted without question to our.
standard colleges and proved an honor to
the High School.
1t is with regret that the citizens of
Thurmont will see this severance of
school ties and Prof. Beachley will have
the best wishes of the community for his
future undertakings whatever they may

Little Boy Bumped.

Last Saturday evening while on the
street with his mother, the little son of
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Messner got a severe
bump by coming in contact with front
fender on car driven by Mr.. Paul Beard.
The latter was going south on Water
rtreet and making the turn on State road,
the child going north and attempting to
cross the street. In trying to avoid an
other car the little fellow ran in the way
of another, the fender striking him on
the cheek. DIR. Brely was summoned
and soon announced the boy not seriously
injured.

Loss or Annette,

AS general rule there is nothing seri-
Gus about loss of appetite, andjf you
skip meal or only eat two meals day
for few days you will soon have rel
ish for your meals when meal time comes.
Bear in mind that at least five hours
should always elapse between meals SO as
to give the food ample time to digest and
the stomach period of rest before
second meal is taken. Then if you eat
no more than you crave and take a rea-
sonable amount of outdoor exercise every
day you will not need to worry about your
appetite. When the loss of appetite is
caused by constipation as is often the
case, that should be corrected at once.
A dose of Chamberlain Tablets will do
it. Adv.

Broke Axle.

The axle on the rear driving wheels of
engine No. Oil, hauling big load of en-
pties west on the Western Maryland rail
road broke about $50 O'Clock Tuesday
morning. The train was west of Thur
mont some distance when the big axle
broke. The engineer brought his train
back to the siding at Thurmont, the wheel
on the right dropping from the engine at
the freight house. A heated box is said
to be responsible for the accident. The
Fast Mail train was delayed here about
half AN hour.

Charged With Stealing Auto.

Driving into the garage of the owner
of car he had stolen, Howard Lantz,
81 years of age, of Deerfield. Nd, went
through series of experiences which
terminated when he was given hearing
before Justice of the Peace j. l.. Hill in
Gettysburg, Pa, Tuesday, and after ad-
hitting the theft OF the car was held for
court.
The car was the property of Earl Sing
ley, of Fairfield, Pa, and Lantz had TAX
en- it week previous at Pen-Mar Park.
In explanation of his act he said that he
was tired and didn't want to walk home.
so he selected the Singley car and rode
home. Nothing was done to conceal the
identity of the car, not even the license
tags being changed.
His career came to close when he
drove into the Fairfield garage, accom-
panied by three friends. The car was
quickly spotted and constable summon
ed. The constable soon had Lantz hand
cuffed to one of his friends, the friend
apparently not realizing for moment
the cause of the trouble. When he did,
and understood that Lantz got the out
fit into the scrape he struck Lantz forci-
bly, with his free right hand and soon
the two men, hardcuffed together, were
fighting hard until bysta ndersinterfered.
The four were taken to Adams county
Jail and spent the night there. Lantz
three friends were set free after the
hearing
