A DOUBLE VICTORY

Thurmont High School sure did
shine, athletically speaking, on Mon
day afternoon. The Girls Volley
Ball team smothered the team from
the Girls High School, Frederick, by
score of AL. The local girls out
played their opponents throughout
and had an easy time of it. After the
volley ball game the local High
School Soccer Team tackled the
Boys High School Team, also of
Frederick, and sent them down to
defeat 10. Thurmont's lone tally
was made early in the first half on
a penalty kick, E. Foreman putting
the ball through. The game was not
penalized frequently and the ball was
in their territory most of the time.
Only twice did they threaten to
score and each time Knott and Will
liar drove theball far down the field
and out of the danger zone. Thur
mont has won one game, lost one and
tied one.

PROPOSED ROAD AT ST.
ANTHONY'S HELD UP

The work on the proposed new
highway from St. Anthony's to Mot
ter's Station was started on Wednes-
day morning by the Corson and Cru
man Co., of Washington, who were
awarded the contract. This firm came
here over a week ago to start in on
the job only to find that Mr.. Daniel
Callahan refused to permit the road
to be built through his land. This
was an obstacle unlocked for and ac-
cording to a statement given out on
Tuesday by District Engineer W. F.
Crum the work could not commence
until this obstacle was overcome. In
starting the work on Wednesday
morning it could not be learned just
what means were to be used in put
ting the road through as it is under
stood that up to last evening Mr..
Callahan had not given his consent.
This hold-up was not only disap-
pointing to the members of the St.
Anthony's and Motter's Station COM
munities but also to the contractors
who were awarded the job. The con-
tractors have been under heavy ex-
pense every day that the workmen
were idle and as they took the con-
tract with the understanding that all
arrangements were completed to go
right ahead with the job, it would
seem that it would be asking too much
of them to stand the expense of the
hold-up when they are in no way con-
cerned and came here with the inten-
tion of giving the State good road.
From what could be gathered dur
ing the past week the road will be
built but it seems too bad any friction
should arise at this time to hold up
what the people of that district deem
necessity.-Chronicle.

GOLD FISH

This section of Frederick county is
specially adapted to the raising of
gold fish, so much so, in fact, that it
has become the greatest producer in
this country. Quite number of
farms, where the topography of the
land permits, are being utilized for
this purpose, and among the larger
ones is that of Mr.. George English of
this town. He has more than three
hundred acres, not all in ponds how
ever, but he is gradually increasing
his number of ponds, and in a few
years may have his whole farm under
water. At present they number
twenty-four and are quite large in
size.
We visited him last Saturday to
"see what we could see." If we
missed anything at all it was not the
fault of Mr.. English. He is a pleas
ant host and devoted several hours to
our enlightenment in the gold fish
industry.
The drawing" of a pond was ac-
complished in this manner:-A sluice
gate was slightly raised; at the end of
the sluice large wire basket encloses
everything that comes through and a
small dip net transfers the fish to
buckets, whence they are taken to the
sorting room. Here they are emptied
about quart at a time on a table
with sloping galvanized iron top,
and as they slide by, four men sepa-
rate the gold fish from the uncolored
gold fish, the tadpoles, crabs, frogs,
pond bass, and various other pond in
habitants. The gold fish are put into
large floats and afterwards, by the
same process as above, are sorted into
their different sizes.
Thousands of pond bass ranging in
size from one-half inch to five inches
are taken; the smaller ones are deli
cacies for the chickens.
1t is necessary to see the work be-
ing done to appreciate the immense
number of fish being handled in such
a short time.
A visit to Mr.. English's ponds IS
we'll worth while.

CLASS WORK AT FAIR

For the first time in the history of
the fair, class work demonstrations
were given by pupils of the public
schools of the county at the fair this
week. So far as is known it is the
first time in the history of the state
that regular class work demonstra-
tions were presented at county fair.
Aside from the interesting feature of
the exhibit it afforded parents and pa
irons of the schools an, opportunity
to see how high school pupils are be-
ing prepared for the practical walks
in life.
The following demonstration of the
Thurmont High School took place
yesterday:

CulIOI SdIOStil Sioiiob'
The writer has been attending
several of the meetings of the Me-
chanicstown District Memorial Asso-
citation to commemorate those who
took part in the World War, and we
are only able to get bare quorum for
business.
1t is within a few weeks of
three years since the armistice was
signed, and we find memorials erected
and being erected throughout the
County and State, and Mechanicstown
District, the banner district in num-
bers in the service, and of those sent
over seas, still tagging to get the
wherewithal to commemorate our boys
who made the sacrifice; while their
names may be recorded at the States
and County Seats, we should have a
living memorial in our home District,
and every citizen in the district should
contribute to that end; a memorial
that will last to the end of time, and
remind us of the greatest, cruelest and
most destructive war known in his
tory, which we want to avoid in future
generations
The plan as outlined of pur-
chasing the Grimes meadow situated
as near the centre of the town, of a
plot of ground as can be obtained jim
dorsed by the committee and ratified
at a public meeting called for that
purpose.
1t is now the purpose of the
Committee to get title and lay off said
ground and plant trees and shrubbery
while the season of the year is here to
do that kind of work and not leave
another year pass away, it takes
years to make beautiful tree.
The finance committee has not been
fully organized, but they are going to
get together shortly, and the object of
this writer is to make the citizens of
the district think how much each and
every one can give toward this me-
mortal.
Remember it is not going to
fade away in five, ten or twenty years
but will last for time immemorial, and
your name will go down the ages with
it and show your true American spirit
and your appreciation of the boys who
did make the sacrifice.

APPEARANCES ARE DECElTFUL

APPEARANCES ARE DECElTFUL
What appeared to be a perfectly
legitimate hold-up last Thursday
night turned out to be nothing more
than a farmer seeking aid. Mr.. Lu-
ther Delauter, of Foxville, had been
in Thurmont and was returning home
by way of Deerield. His son John
was driving the car. Midway be-
tween Deerield and Foxville Mr.. De-
lauter saw in the road what had the
appearance of child's cap. He be-
came suspicious and pulled out his re-
volver. About this time man
stepped into the road with hands
raised. Mr.. Delauter fired and John
stepped on the gas and they sped out
of the "war zone" Mr.. Delauter
learned later that the man who
stepped into the road was his
Mr.. Smith, who was in
predicament. Mr.. Smith, too, was re-
turning home. He was driving a colt
which became unmanageable and ran
down the bank, and he stepped out in
to the road to ask for help. Another
neighbor came along shortly after and
helped Mr.. Smith out of his trouble.
No damage was done the colt or
buggy.

MEMORIAL COMMITTEE ACTIVE

The Memorial Committee met in
the Community Room last Friday
evening. These meetings are all open
to the public and should be literally
attended. Thus far the majority
seem to be willing to "let George do
it."
George" has been and is doing it,
and expects to see that it gets done,
but really he is anxious for your
assistance. He wants you to know
what he is doing and also wants your
approval. If you have an idea or
opinion on the subject it is your priv
ilege and righ that you should let it
be known.
The committee had before them
plans of two rostrums that were sub
mitted by Mr.. B. Everett Kepner, Ar
chitect, of Frederick. Mr.. Kepner is
donating his services and he sent
these plans with the instructions to
"pick them to pieces and send them
back" if not satisfactory and he would
try again. They were picked to
pieces and one or two suggestions
offered.
The finance committee is making a
special effort to have a big meeting
tomorrow evening at which final plans
will be adopted and a work begun that
will be lasting memorial to the boys
and credit to the citizenship of this
district.

Grip

Grip usually starts just the same as
a cold with watery discharge from
the nose. You are much more likely
to contract the grip when you have a
cold. For that reason when grip is
prevalent you should go to bed as
soon as you feel that you are taking
cold and stay in bed until fully recov-
cred which should not be long if you
take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Three days In now is better than
three weeks later On.-Ady.

Financial Loss Due to Colds

It is estimated that the average
man loses three days time each year
from inability to work on account of
having a cold. Much of this loss
can be avoided by treating every cold
as soon as the first symptoms of the
disease appear. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy has won a wide repu-
tation and immense sale by its cure
of this disease. Try it. You are GER
tain to be pleased with its pleasant
taste and the prompt relief which it
afords.--AdY.
