USUAL SUCCESS
OF BLIND CONCERT
Sightless Musicians in Musical
Program Drew Many to
Playhouse Last Night.

The annual concert for the benefit
of The Blind Shop brought together
last night at The Playhouse con-
siderable audience of those interested
in this admirable enterprise. consid-
ering the other activities which might
have claimed them.
The wonderful achievements of
musicians who play "at sight are far
outstripped by these who play with
out sight for not only do they play
in the absence of the friendly aid OF
the eye in locating keys or strings.
but that avenue is cut Off as an as
slstant in comprehending the work 1t
self. Consequently the ear and the
memory are taxed; the pianist having
to learn by the repetition, note by
note, of a new or different compo-
sition. When. in addition il Is rca-
liEed that those who thus take up
music are not, as a rule, those who
have marked natural ability, but who
have developed Il by dint Of sheer de-
domination, the marvel merely grows.

Z MINING TOWNS
BEAR NAME Of
IMMIGRANT BOY
Fruition Of Dream of Himler,
Who Landed 10 Years Ago
With 9 Cents.

HUNTINGTON. w. Va. Oct. ls.-
Eighteen years ago a swarthy young
immigrant who had come to America
with nine cents In his pocket was an
itinerant peddler. vending earrings
watch chains, beads and books around
the, mining camps OF West Virginia.
Virginia and Kentucky. Today two
towns are named after him. One OF
the places is Himler. w. Va. The
other is the interesting settlement OF
Himlerville, Ky.
The man for whom they are named
is Martin Himler. The Himler Coal
Company, which he organized with
the savings OF Hungarian miners AL
over the United States, Is what gives
the settlement of Himlerville it's name.
In the same way Himler, w. Va, WAS
so called because II was there ten
miles farther along the Tug river that
Himler first tried out his cooperative
mine scheme on IA small scale.
He landed In 1903 from the steerage
a lad OF nineteen. He hadn't much
more than got his feet on American
soil before he was shipped with crew
of others to West Virginia. He was
put to work in a coal mine at Thackec.
He stood II for six weeks and then ran
away and got a laborer's job In a steel
mill at Portsmouth, Ohio. After nearly
a year OF that sort OF labor he went
back to coal mining and then got work
I'm a stone quarry. After that he
went to New York and got a place on
a Hungarian daily newspaper for
time and presently as a clerk In an
importing and exporting house.
From that he graduated into a ped
dler of imported trinkets and books
from Hungary and his paths led back
into the mining country where he had
made friends with many Hungarian
coal diggers and others Of his country
men,
About 1918 he started a weekly
paper in New York. In 1917 his
dreams began to find realization IN
the purchase of small mine in the
Pigeon creek section. The mine had
capacity of only 200 tons day. Opera
tions continued on a scale OF about
200 tons a day until war conditions
made 1t expedient to sell.
The proceeds from that sale. $31 900,
and sos. 900 from additional stock sales
and Investments. became the nucleus
Of a greater enterprise. 1t was used
to secure the lease of 5000 acres OF
coal land and to purchase the option
on 1000 acres more In Martin county.
The 5000 acres IL called Himlervllle.
The newly built railroad tracks run
right into the heart of 1t.

to be the solution for our transp0rta-
tiOn problem.
"The agricultural population Of

our cities Is the most characteristic
movement of today, and Is largely
caused by the isolation of farm life.
Good roads and the family car give

'The problem Of tho high cost of
living Is largely a distribution prob
lem. Transportation takes toll from
every consumer. With hard-surface
roads q team or truck can pull ten
times as great a load as on muddy
roads, and the farmer can move his
crops in accordance with the market
rather than the condition of the roads,
thus reducing storage costs and dis
couraging speculation.
Good roads lower living costs by
keeping the producer on the farm and
widening the area Of productive cul-

Ever since the Romans linked their
empire together with roads that en-

good roads. Motor buses on the
splendid highways of France brought
up the reserves in time to save the
allies at Verdun. When the railroads
of our country were burdened with
wartime traffic, and embargoes were
placed on nonessentials, the motor

BANKS OF CLARKSBURG
SAVE CREDIT OF CITY

CBARKSBURG, w. Va, Oct. 15.-
Bankers of the city of Clarksburg have
come to the rescue OF the municipal
government Il was learned from City
Manager Harrison G.. Otis, today, who
announced that the city had borrow
cd s7S 900 from the banks with which
to meet payments due October / on
the bond issue of 1919.
The total payment made recently
was 500, 900, but $4,000 OF this amount
the city had on hand, and $4,000 OF
the sum was assumed by the Clarks-
burg Water board.
The city was forced to default pay
ment of the bonds, because no funds
were available.
