Nations Candy Bill Drops

Washington, Sept. 3.-It cost the
nation $54, 100000 less to fill its
sweet tooth during the last fiscal year
than in the previous year, according
to preliminary annual statistics of the
Internal Revenue Bureau, $408, $685.

country, as compared with 1852, ,840,-
$50 in 1920.
1t cost more, however to keep the
country's jaws in motion, the chewing
gum bill for 1921 amounting to $44,-
4O5, 800, as against $37 ,498, 100 in
the previous year.
The country;s spending also fell off
considerably in other lines, the total
outlay on automobiles being 81, ,675.-
773,8OO. as against $2,008, ,665, ,080
in 1920, and on iewelry to $486, ,07S,-
100. as against s517, ,272, 14O in 1920.
In the field of art the curtailment
was heavy, the amount spent for pi-

Melon Patch Raided

During the cattle sale on the Geo. w.
Martz farm, near Mt. Tabor, west of
Middletown, tenanted by Mr.. Lewis
Younkins, Thursday of last week. num-
ber of boys raided the watermelon and
cantaloupe patch belonging to Mr.. Youn-
kins and completely destroyed it. A to-
tai of ACT watermelons and 4l6 canta-
loupes were destroyed.
The melons were pulled off the vines
and kicked to pieces. The vines them
selves were torn up by the roots and the
hills demolished. Not melon, vine or
hill was spared by the youthful invaders.
The spoilers continued at the work OF
destruction for some time before they
were discovered. A relief party was or
ganized and rushed to the scene and up.
on their approach the invaders fell back,
narrowly escaping capture by another
party which had gone by another route
to intercept them. But it was too late
to save hill in the melon patch. The
patch was merely scene of ruin and
desolation. A conservative estimate
places the loss to the melon patch at
$4OO.
1t is understood that the invasion and
destruction is not the result of any feud
or hard feelings between Mr.. Younkins
and his family and that the young invad-
ers were prompted by no other motive
than the desire to gratiyf the love fol
destructiveness. Mr.. Younkins was at.
tending to the cattle at the sale and was
not keeping close watch over his melon
patch. Valley Register

Cadets To Be Appointed

Senator o. E. Weller will have the ap-
pointment of two Cadets to the Naval
Academy to fill two vacancies there in
June, 1922. The Senator Is graduate
of the Academy and secured his appoint
ment by competitive examination. He
has determined to give the young men
of Maryland the same opportunity he had
himself. This gives every boy an equal
chance without regard to influence, and
will also assure to the Government the
best material for making future Naval
Officers.
Competitive examinations for these
two appointments will be held by the
United States Civil Service Commission
on October %, 1921, at Baltimore, An
napolis, Cumberland, Hagerstown, Eas-
ton and Salisbury. Any boy who will
have passed his sixteenth birthday and
not his twentieth, on April l, 1922. will
be eligible to compete. Senator Weller
will appoint the two who are certified by
the Civil Service Commission as having

Probably the worst cases reported are
those on the books Of City Health Officer
Goodman, who, after concluding an in
vestigation of several days, last Tuesday
evening discovered that every case re-
ported to him had it's origin in the fam

ton, the health officer Immediately is
