SOME LONELY MAN
ONCE SAID

"The woman who can add the
real mother tone, to rented rooms
should be eternally blessed"
Men who seek to locate ideal
rooms find Times Want Ads
"frst aid" friend. For these
little messages are in most in
stances from real homes where
happy, congenial people abide.
It is the most natural thing in
the world for homes like these to
advertise In The Times-and with
the assurance that they will at
tract the right kind of people.
For The Times is a newspaper
which holds the faith Of the
family circle, and its appeal is
always to thinking, home-loving
men and women. Therefore its
readers have many things in COM
mon.
Wise room-seekers make results
double sure by not only following
the Room and Board" columns,
but also inserting an I'D Of their
own. In this way they can quick
ly make known their every re-
quirement.

Some apprehension was felt in re-

on account of the recent warm rainy

conservative fruit growers, however,
is that no very perceptable change
was noticeable in the swelling of the

VERY conservative lima e.

net 5000 barrels a day. The

long-lived. and by that they mean
that. on account of the low dip
structure and the immense draw
ing area for accumulation of oil
along with the many other favor

for 40 years. However, we'll say
it will only last 20 years. 90

"MISS SOMEBODY ELSE"

The four-act play given on Tuesday
evening in Town Hall by the Junior
Class of T. H. S. was surprise to
practically all who attended. The fact
of it's being the FIRST appearance of
all the performers, nothing out of the
ordinary in the line of dramatics was
looked for, hence the surprise.
Each character was presented in a
manner that gave evidence of latent
ability; and the comments "The part
just fits him." and "That is the part
for her." showed the wisdom of the
coach and those who assigned the
parts.
Each individual has been voted 100
per cent. on his or her portrayal of the
character represented.
The audience was large and appreci-
alive, and many were the comments
on the success of the play.
From a financial standpoint it was
also a success, although, in reality,
that has been a secondary matter with
those at the head of the affair.
The High School Orchestra, which
furnished music between the acts, also
showed the result of faithful training
and practice.
The Senior Class play of next year
will, they say, be better than the Jun
Class play of 1922.

ON HONOR ROLL

Announcement has been received by
Postmaster Joseph C. Gernand of the
Thurmont postoffice that his name has
been placed on the Honor Roll and
sent to the Postmaster General at
Washington as a mark of special dis
tinction.
The Postmaster was an entrant in
the postmaster contest which closed
December 31st for the sale of Govern
ment Savings Securities. He COM
peted with all other postmasters of
the same class offices in the Fifth Fed
eral Reserve District and was one of
the winners in this state.
A bronze Honor Pin of attractive
design, bearing the inscription, "Honor
Postmaster" has been conferred upon
the local Postmaster by Howard T.
Cree, Director of the Government Saw
ings Organization, Richmond, Va, as
reward for patriotism and faithful
service.
While the sale of War Savings
Stamps and Thrift Stamps has been
discontinued, the new Treasury Saw
ings Certificates offered the public are
so attractive that Postmaster Gernand
says, 81 believe this Office will report
much larger sales this year than last
year as soon as our people recognize
what splendid investment is open to
them
