Mr.. Roeder Dies Suddenly

Mr.. William A. Roeder died suddenly
on Friday evening last while at work
in the Edlavitch Department Store.
1t is doubtful if our lttl0 town ever
lost q resident that was or will be
missed more than Mr.. Roeder. For
many years the first sight that greeted
US upon entering Edlavitch's store was
he, ever ready and willing to serve and
wait upon US with efficiency, honesty
and accuracy.
His position called for long hours of
service daily, but though alling for
several weeks, he stuck to his duty
to the limit of his strength.
Due to the snow blocked roads the
funeral was delayed until Wednesday
morning, when the services were held
at st. Mary's Church, and the inter-
ment in Mt. Carmel Cemetery.
The surviving children of the de-
ceased are: Messrs. William Roeder of
Baltimore, and Charles Roeder of
Washington; Mrs. James Gilroy, Mrs.
Alonza Dema RI, Mrs. Joseph A. Wells,
Mrs. Samuel Lewis, Misses Edith.
Helen and Ellie Roeder. to whom we
extend our sincere sympathy.

Health Notes

In selecting animals for market
health should have first consideration.
An animal in medium condition, gain
ing in weight yields the best quality
of meat. Thus says one of the bulle-
tins of the United States Dept of Ag-
riculture.
We are all anxious about the weight,
growth, and health of our stock. Are
We as much concerned about our chill
dren? Are we careful about our child
ren's diet? Do we see that they drink
milk and cocoa instead of tea and cof-
fee? Do we help them follow the
health rules? Do we have them weigh
ed each month in school?
A scale in every school. All children
should be weighed regularly. Health
teaching is one of the most impor-
tant subjects of the school cirriculum.
Shall we make the children of this
county 100 per cent.

Creamery Stockholders Meet

The stockholders of the Southern
Maryland Creamery Association held {
well attended meeting at Waldorf
recently where they had laid before
them an outline of what the Board oil
Directors had so far accomplished ane
what it's plans for the future were, al
of which appeared to meet with the
approval of those present.
The meeting had especially impress
ed upon it the necessity of securing
subscriptions for additional stock in
order to insure the beginning of OPP
erations by the first of May. in order
to do this, however, it was shown that
it was necessary to secure the bulk OF
this stock subscription prior to the first
of February, the failure of which is tt e
only thing that will prevent this plan
being carried out.
Among the important business trans
acted was the adoption of two amend
ments to the bylaws, one of which
gives to each shareholder the right to
cast one vote for each share held, and
the other one raised the present divi-
dend on the stock from six to eight pei
cent 80 that when the enterprise gets
upon a paying basis the stockolder-
will receive very fair re turn on his in
v-stment.
1t was stated at the meeting that the
Board planned to conduct three folc
operation embracing the manufacture
of butter, ice cream and ice, and that
the ice plant after providing the nee
essary ice and refrigeration for tn.
purposes of the other two industries
would produce a daily surplus for the
market which would not only be the
means of bringing in an immediate re
turn from which to take care of overhead
and operating charges but would als o
be matter of great convenience to
the people of Waldorf and surrounding
communities as well as to those sec
tions reached by transportation from
this town.
After the stockholders meeting the
new Board of Directors met and organ
lied by the election of Mr.. James P.
Ryon, President; Senator Peverley
Vice president, and Mr. Herman Baden
hoop, Secretary-treasurer Efforts
now are being made toward the raising
of the additional stock subscriptions t.
make the enterprise certainty, and tn.
general public of Southern Maryland
should lend its cooperation and assist
ance by sending in their subscriptions
without waiting to be called upon.
