OLDEST LIVING TWINS
FURNISH RECIPE FOR
PROMOTING LONGEVITY
By The Associated Press,

WOODVILLE, OHIO, Apr. will
liam H. Sr., and Henry Bruins, eighty
eight years OF age, who claim the
distinction of being the oldest living
twins in the United States and who
recently celebrated their SSth birth
day here after being residents of this
village for almost sixty years, give
the following recipe for longevity:
Hard work-and plenty of it.
Taboo tobacco.
Don't worry or fret.
Smile at trouble.
Regular meals and sleep.
Live the Golden Rule.
The biggest thing in life, they say
is keeping busy and they have ac-
cumulated a tidy fortune by doing it.
A man without ambition is worse
than a man without a country, in
their opinion.
Neither twin has ever ridden in an
automobile, they said.
Starting in business in 1854 in a
general store, William was on the job
every day, except for an occasional
illness, until December Z, 1918, when
fire destroyed the establishment.
Henry was his clerk one year, then
his partner, and then launched in
business for himself, building
gristmill in 1865. In this business
Henry also established a record for
work, Icing on the job continuously
until 1921, when fire retired him."
Since quitting the store and mill
the twins have devoted their time to
their extensive land holdings here,
visiting their farms almost daily and
helping to do the chores and other
odd and end jobs"
Born in Hanover, Germany, Feb
ruary 4, 1884, the Bruins brothers
came to America at the age of eigh-
teen years.
Both are married and have fam
lilies.

GREEKS OBSERVE THEIR
DAY OF INDEPENDENCE

One hundred and one years ago to-
day Greece stripped itself of the
shackles of Turkish domination. The
day is termed Independence Day"
among the Greeks, the same as our
own Fourth of July. or Independence
Day. And the members of the Greek
colony of Annapolis, which has grown
considerably in recent years. are OBJ
serving the anniversary by ways or
customs peculiarly their own. 1t is a
day of friendly greetings among them
and there have been many exchanges
of compliments. The blue and white
striped flag of their nation is also
prominently displayed from their
business and residential places.

CONGREGATIONS JOIN IN
EVANGELISTIC SERVICES

Increased interest in the evangelis-
tic services was manifested in the
gathering at the College Avenue Bap-
tist Church last night.
Rev. A. Z. Owens, of Trinity
Church, worshipped with the congre-
cation and led in most earnest
prayer. Many of the Eastport Baptist
congregation also joined in the serv-
ice, and the singing was unusually
hearty.
The church is arranging for a rec
ord-breaking attendance on Sunday,
when the Calvary Quartet, of Balti-
more, will sing many favorite selec-
tions.
Evangelist Boda took for his sub
iect 1.-The Little Bible" his text being
John, 3:16-"God so loved the world
that He gave His only begotten Son,
that whosoever believed on Him
should not perish, but have eternal
life"
1t vas a most helpful sermon, and
one member of the congregation was
received for baptism.
Services will open tonight at 7:45
O'Clock. There will be no service to-
morrow evening, and the Sunday wor-
ship will be at 10:45 a. m. and 7:4l

The first week of the nationwide

and none is TO be expected until the
operators meet the union in confer
ence and agree to negotiate" he said.

nine inches around the long way and
six and one-half the other way. The

Gist OF Courts Opinion

The substance of the Courts ruling
is stated in the following paragraph
of the opinion:
The bill alleges, and the plaintiffs'
proof is offered for the purposes cf
showing. that the road stopped up and
closed, leading TO the landing in ques-
tion, is road or public way which
has been used for time whereof the
memory of man runneth not to the
contrary for the purpose of shipping
produce and receiving freight, and as
a mears of access to said Severn river
for pleasure. Now, If the Court as
sumec that the testimony offered by
the plaintiffs is sufficient to establish
such a public way, then clearly the
plaintiffs are not entitled to the re-
lief prayed, because the remedy for
stopping up or obstructing public
highway is by indictment; and the
plaintiffs have not, nor indeed has any
Of them, shown any special injury not
common TO, or distinct ard different
from, that suffered by the public"
The case has been pending for over
two years. and attracted unusual in
crest in and around the neighborhood
Of Benfield and the upper Severn
river section OF the county.

opinion in the case of Addison Pum-

ground that the defendants, Mr.. and
Mrs. Obrecht, who own a summer
home near the head of Severn river,
have placed certain distractions in an
alleged road or public way leading
from the county road to "0yster Shell
landing on the Severn river, and
that there has been a public wharf at
said landing for many years. and that
the said road afforded the only means
