thought that should find more general
application In times Of peace.
II IL something new for unknown
soldiers to be buried In Westminster
and under the Arch Of Triumph. State
burial was once reserved for marshals
ard generals and conspicuous heroes,
among military men. 1t Is only Just
that the victory Of democracy over ar-
tocracy should make such a difference,
and II is only natural that an anony.
nous soldier should symbolic common
service In war.
Such service has always been anony-
nous. but the anonymous have not
previously been SO honored. Common
service Of an official character is usu-
ally performed by men 10 uniform
whether as soldiers. policemen, Are
men or sailors--who for the most part
remain anonymous. When one Of these
millions Of official servants steps out
OF the usual routine and performs ex-
traordinary service and becomes a
hero, the public demands his name
Not that IT matters; the deed Is the
important thing. but henceforth the
name and the deed are associated
Otherwise the anonymity OF the hero's
service is preserved
Some years ago DR.. Nehemiah Boyn-
ton made an interesting nddress In
which he emphasized the debt we
owed to the anonymous in oil walks
Of life. Unofficial service Is but
slightly less anonymous In character
than that Of persons 10 uniform. We

81. Mary's is suffering from
What has developed into an cpl
aemic Of fires and the total mon
etary loss is considerable. This
bounty has not been considered a
good risk by the insurance COM
|panies and as result the rates
'are SO high as to be almost pro-
'hibitive. In consequence few
people are able to carry adequate
Insurance on their property, and
Ii fire means a net loss Of from
fifty per cent to 80 per cent Of
1.-The value of the buildings and
contents destroyed. In the coun-
fry proper this condition is diff
cult TO rectify, but here in Leon
ardtown there could be some
means provided to extinguish
fires.
While the BEACON still believes
that the best method would be
the installation Of an adequate
water system and fire hose, yet
If the citizens Of the town will
not agree to this, and they have
50 expressed themselves in the
last town election, we would adj
yocate any plan that would furn-
ish any measure Of relief from
our present helpless situation.
The fire hazard of Leonardtown
is yearly growing greater by rea-
son Of the addition Of new build
ings, thereby eliminating the
open spaces that have offered an
opportunity to prevent the spread
Of a fire, and also through the al
most general storage Of highly
inhamable oil and gas necessitat-
ed by the use Of automobiles and
gasoline engines. Some means
Of fire extinction should be pro-
yided, and we would suggest that
the Town Commissioners call a
meeting of the citizens to discuss
ways and means Of furnishing an
apparatus of some kind. Per-
haps a chemical outfit would be
practical, and certainly we should
have some ladders kept solely for
fire fighting use. If we we're not
ashamed in these modern times to
suggest the use Of such antiquat-
ed methods, we might add that
it would not be a bad plan to have
a supply Of buckets, also. At the

SCOUT PREPAREDNESS.

1t certainly pays to be prepared. A
scout may work his fingers nearly Off
on first aid practice and never have a
chance to put his skill to real, sure
enough rescue work, but then again
when he least expects 1t the oppor-
tunity may be his to do a real Job Of
life saving. Here is a case In point.
A boy and his little sister were alone
In a house. The little girl, running
across the room, slipped and falling
forward ran her arm through the win
dow pane, severing an artery. What
would the average boy do? Run for
help? Telephone for the doctor? Well
and good. But, In the meantime,
severed artery means terrific loss of
blood, and even death unless II Is
checked instantly. There isn't time
for ordinary precautions. It Is a case
of instant action. Luckily in the in
stance here cited, the boy was a boy
plus, that is. boy scout and he took
charge of the situation himself, I'm
provised q tourniquet to stop the flow
OF blood and then sent for the doctor.
When the latter arrived he declared
that the boys prompt action undoubt-
eadly saved the child's life.

The gardener who starts with clean
soil has done much to keep out in
sects and diseases. Many diseases
and insects live over winter In the
soil, and one of the best ways to avoid
trouble Is to plant each vegetable in
a different part OF the garden every
year. Some of the worst garden trou-
