EIrst TrayeIer On Famous Road.

The first white man of whom we
have record traversing the route OF
what is now the National road was
Christopher Gist, who had been living
near the North Carolina state line and
who came into Maryland at the re
quest of the Ohio company to explore
the land toward the west. He arrived
at WINS creek In October, 1910, Wits
creek is a gOod-sized stream flowing
into the Potomac at what is now Cum.
berland. The Indians knew II as
Caicutucue, a name both difficult to
spell and pronounce, which led per
haps to Its early discardance. Upon
this stream In small cove in a great
mountain which rises there lived n
friendly and influential Indian whom
the early traders called VIII, probably
the nearest English stagger they could
make at this Indian name. So the
stream Calcutucue became WINS creek
and the mountain at Cumberland

point the body Of the Indian, VIII, was

PEOPLES FORUM

About seven years ago the
Western Washington Baptist Con
vention entered into a contract
with Mr.. Ed. Irvine, of Burton,
by which the Convention received
title to the Ed Irvine cottage and
acreage, and agreed to pay Mr..
Irvine an annuity of $4,000 per
year and grant him the free use
of the property, for the remain
der of his life. Later, when Mr..
Irvine was taken sick, certain
friends, some of whom We're off
GERS of the Convention or mem
bers Of the Convention Board,
agreed to take care of Mr.. Irvine
as long as he should be helpless
and dependent, in the Baptist
Old Folks Home, which it was
expected then would be establish
ed and supported by the demon
ination, for aged and helpless
Baptists At no time did the
Convention Board enter into such
an agreement, and the only agree
melt the Convention made with
Mr.. Irvine was to pay $4,000
per year, annuity, for the re-
mainder of his life. However, as
matter of kindness, the Con.
vention Board did appropriate
additional amounts to assist in
taking care of Mr.. Irvine during
his long illness of several years
ago.
Two and a half years ago the
Convention Board learned that
there was some misunderstanding
on the part of Mr.. Irvine and
his friends as to what was in
Guided in the annuity contract.
At this time the Convention
Board submitted to Mr.. Irvine,
in writing, a proposition to for
give him the amount already
paid in annuity and other expen-
ses, which was $l,385.CI, and
deed back to him the whole of
the property, without any strings
whatsoever, or to live up to the
terms of the annuity contract,
OF his own choice and without
influence from anyone represent
ing the Convention, Mr.. Irvine
chose to abide by the original
contract. Since that time the
Convention Board has not only
paid the full annuity each year
but has paid out other sums of
money for the repairs and i'm
provement of the property, and
for the comfort of Mr.. Irvine,
Since this contract was entered
into the Convention Board has
paid to Mr., Irvine in annuities.

making a total Of $2,2375O which
the Convention has paid, and for
which it has not received one
cent of interest or returns in any
way, and has granted Mr.. Irvine
free use of the property.

PSNCHOLOGY'S DAY

A coroner, in freeing q man of guilt in connection with fatal motor ac- cidcnt recently said that the "psy- choIogical effect" Of a previous acCi- dent in which the same man was inn plicated, was the cause Of his unwise action in the case before him.
 Years ago psychology was a word seldom mentioned except by the savant or the student. Today it is recognized by many as playing it's part in the routine of every day life; in failure in success.
 The psychological effect something has upon a man is the influence that thing has upon the mind. conscious or under-conscious. If a brick falls upon your head while you are passing building in the process of construc- tion. and if later you pass another building in the same condition you will walk out into the street or even go around hy another way to avoid the danger. Usually this is the result of your reason; you do not care to take another chance. But even should you

CHRISTMAS LIGHT.

People living in the ncighborhood Of East street will note with pleas ure the announcement of the reopen ing of the branch library of the New Britain Institute there after recent renovation. It is most fitting that this sort of light-that brought by familiarity with good authors-be started glowing afrcsh at this time of year, for there is no more powerful, practical, useful and joy-bringing light than that shed by the lamp Of knowledge.
 Running alongside of this intangible sort of light which may not be seen in the form Of light itself, there is announced the news that merchants will be allowed to make Main street, between East Main and Commercial, more brilliant in order that the holi- day spirit and appearance may be maintained. The commercial spirit is there, of course. Radiance attracts and especially in the season of Christ mas men and women and children would be where the light glows.
 But behind every move Of this char acter, although inspired by the de- sire to increase business. there lies the feeling Of the propricty of great CT more radiant light 10 shine as there draws nearer the dawnng of the great day,

 The best salesmen are conscious or unconscious psychologists although they may be unable to define the meaning of the word. They say the words and show the article they have to sell in a way that will make the deepest impression on the mind of the prospect" The able jury lawyer and, to a lesser extent the attorney who ar gues before the court alone-both must be most human psychologists.

ANOTHER PRIVATE
 SESSION IS HELD
Executive Meeting of lrish> Parlia- mcnt Because All Arguments
 Are Not settled.

Dublin, Dec, 15 O}y Associated Press.) The Dali Eireann this morn ing resumed in private session it's consideration of the treaty calling for establishment of the Irish Free State.
 Today's session was held in pri- Nate because, despite the exhaustive debate of yesterday, a decision had not been reached on the preliminary points regarding the authority of the Irish plenipotentiaries who signed the treaty and their method of eX- ercising their authority
 The Frecman's Journal states that at the private sessions yesterday courtesy and fricndliness entirely su- perseded the snappiness noticeable in the morning." It was found neces- sary however, to appoint committee to examine all the correspondence re- laIing to the delegates mission to London and the report of this com mittec will be presented at todays session.
 The controversy over the procedure of the Irish delegates is regarded with impatience by the press and the public and expressions are heard on every side urging a decision on the real issue-aCCeptanCe or rejection of the agreement A large crowd as sembled again this morning to watch the members of the Dali arrive at the national university, where the sessions are being held and the welcoming cheers were again inpartially dis tributed.
 Today's newspapers publish a let ter purpOrting to have been written by Mary MacSwiney, sister of the late Lord Mayor of Cork, protesting in strong terms against the treaty.
