Henry Cameron, 25, descendant Of
pioneer Virginia families, who works
on his uncle's mountainside farm near
Salef, Va, from sunup to shutdown
at $40 month, often dreamed, he
said, of finding a treasure and buying
a farm Of his own. April 9, while plow-
ing near the foot of Brush's noun
tain, his pillow unearthed small pot
wrapped in buckskin, containing gold
and silver coin valued at $14,903. The
latest date on any of the coins was
1923. Young Cameron was fearful
that his fortune might be taken from
him and kept his discovery a secret
until a few days ago.

Frank Michael, a Garrett county
farmer, residing about five miles west
of Frostburg, on the National Pike,
had 500 pounds of smoked meats and
about Is bushels of oats taken from a
building on his farm Monday night.
Tracks leading to the door indicated
that several parties had committed
the theft and departed in an automo
bile. The thieves also visited Hugh
Mcmahon, neighbor, and stole tire
from his car and also a set of har-
ness from his stable. The value of
the property stolen is about $500. 1t
is understood Frotsburg authorities
have several men under suspicion, but
as yet no arrests have been made.

HIGH SCHOOL PLAY SUCCESS
Was Also Well PatrOnized by the Pub
lie Generally.

That the people of Oakland and the
neighboring communities served by
the Garrett County High School are
taking lively interest in the welfare
of the school, was clearly shown by
the large and attentive audience which
gathered at the Maryland Theatre on
last Friday evening to witness the
musical and dramatic entertainment
given by the high school students.
In spite of somewhat threatening
weather, the theatre was filled almost
to capacity by an audience that gave
the boys and girls the most interested
and appreciative attention from start
to finish. In the opinion of competent
Judges the entire program was rem
dered in a manner highly creditable
both to the students taking part and
to the teachers who trained them.
A handsome sum was realized for
the high school library and improve
ment fund

Friday night follows:

To pool or not to pool is the chief
