HARD LUCK, GIRLS

Last Friday the Thurmont High
School volley ball team and their
coach, Miss Mccartney, left here at
6 A. M. in two automobiles, headed
for Homewood and the State Cham
pionship. One machine got there in
plenty of time. The second arrived
at 2 P. M, too late to get in the
game" They chad five blow-outs,"
they said. The first to arrive were
Dorothy Beachley, Vada Hetterly,
Catharine O'Toole, Kathryn Webster,
of the regular team, Isabel Shaffer,
substitute; the last to arrive were Ev-
elyn Zentz, Ethel Favorite, Ethel
Birely, regulars, Dorothy Weller, sub
stitute, and Miss Mccartney.
When the time came to play the
five regulars and one substitute were
told to play with the six members or
forfeit their chances in the contest.
These six girls showed the sporting
spirit that is in the Thurmont team
and agreed to tackle Montgomery
County's eight. They lost by the close
score of "a to 20, the highest number
of points scored by the losing teams.
When Thurmont's whole team got
there they issued challenge to Frost
burg, the winners of the State meet,
but it was turned down.
The T. H. S. girls can play the game
and it is sure hard luck that the sport
ing instinct was not developed at the
contest to the extent that it is in the
six from T. H. S.

LEG BROKEN

Last Friday Mr. VIM. Lohr was cut
ting timber on his wood lot near Thur
mont. A tree had been felled and
Mr.. Lohr was trimming the branches
from the trunk. One branch had evil
IDENTITY been acting as prop to the
log, for, when he cut through this, the
log rolled and caught him. He suf-
fered a compound fracture of both
bones of the right leg between the
knee and ankle. The leg was badly
crushed. He was taken to the Fred
erick City Hospital where the bones
were wired together.

JOHN CREEGER HURT

During the game with Union Bridge
on Saturday, John Creeger Thur
mont's first baseman, received injuries
to his right foot that will retire him
for at least month, and, it is just
possible that he may be out for the
entire season. John attempted to
jump over low wire fence when the
cleat on his shoe caught and threw
him. He received slight fracture of
one of the bones in his right ankle.
He went to Frederick City Hospital
on Tuesday for an examination.

chrYsanthemune.

When the chrysanthemums appear
in the London streets one knows that
autumn has arrived. Perhaps no flow
err OF all the seasons harmoniZes more
completely with the time of year. The
flowerheads have shaggy beauty that
seems touched with the wild west
wind They are of almost every color
except blue white. yellow. pale and
deep red. purple. brown and gold.
But the rich bronze tones remind US
most forcibly of the autumn. They
are at one with the myriad tfnts OF
the trees and hedges throughout the
countryside Chrysanthemurns are ma
tive to almost all countries except
Australia, and that continent can Ill
afford to do without them. They come
on the London streets when they have
no rivals, thus still further eDdearing
themselves to the flower lover. They
bring the golden harvest of the year
to close with glory that carries
one most cheerfully past the first dark
ening days of winter with a promise
Of daffodils In the. spring.

Meaning of Clergy.

The word clergy, like the word
clerk. which is the Latin ciericus in
AngIicized form. does not refer ex-
clusively to churchmen, but includes
all who have any pretension toward
learning.
William Rufus the second Of the
Norman kings of England, enacted an
ordinance in 1857 known by the title
"Benefit of Clergy in accordance
with which an accused man could save
his life on proving that he was not
entirely ignorant Of letters.
The statute in favor of those
who constituted she clergy in this
sense continued nominal!y In force until

READING MATTER ON BUSES
Old English Custom Had to Be Aban
doned on Account of Dishonesty
of the Public.

It is being suggested that every
long distance railway train should car
ry a library for the use of travellers.
More than one hundred years ago,
when omnibuses first began to run in
London, travellers were furnished, not
only with newspapers and magazines,
but with books. Each bus had little
bookcase filled with books by we'll
known authors.
AS new books were expensive in
those days the thoughtfulness OF the
bus-owners was appreciated. It is
said that people used to ride to some
outlying suburb and back simply for
the purpose Of being able to read
book in the omnibus library.
Unfortunately, while the public ap-
preciated the boon, there We're some
mean travellers who stole the books,
until, at last the proprietors were
obliged to announce that. in conse-
quence of repeated thefts. the Libraries
would be discontinued.
