A QUILTING PARTY.

On Tuesday, January II. group o.

pleasantly around the quilting frame
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. John
Frock, of Meadow Branch, and knot
ter comforts made of squares that Mr.,
Clarence Frock brought from France
when he returned from the late World
War Service. After few hours work

low-Republicans. His peroration was
an appeal to the folks back home
to right the wro2g. 1t sounded the
warning that the real fight had just
begun.
Thank God for the folks at home.
Thank God for the men and women in
the factories and on the farms and
around the firesides of this country
who will eventually determine this
question. l do not care how it is deter
mined. l know they have been gather
ed in: they are ready to sign the di-
rected verdict. Sign it in your infamy"
Senator Norris, another Western
Republican. delivered a masterpiece
of irony which will be long remem-
bered when he feigned to defend the
right of a Senator to purchase seat
provided he bought it honestly and
paid the price"
They had a public sale up in Mich
igan." said he. The property that was
placed on the auction block was
seat in the United States Senate. The
sale was public; the bidding was
in the open and the property was
knocked down to the highest bidder
Every citizen of Michigan had an op-
portunitv to get in the bid. Why, then,
all this fussing and fuming? The only
question before the Senate is, shall
the sale of seat in this chamber be
confirmed? 1t is question of con-
frmation of a sale which is admitted.
it seems to me, to have been according

THE WOODROW WILSON FOUNDA-
TION.

To the Public:
| have been appointed to receive
contributions from Carroll county to
the Woodrow Wilson Foundation, and
the Banks and individuals whose
names are given elsewhere in the pa
per have kindly consented to receive
them for me- in their respective local
tiles.
This movement of the American
people is believed to be the first OF
its kind. And it is but fitting that this
honor should be paid to that man who
alone was able to voice the high moral
and righteous ideals of the nation in
the irving wears of 1917 and 1918.
Wilson kent faith with the Ameri-
can people, and our dead, but the
American people deserted him.
Stabbed by the malice and hatred of
blind partisanship, a martyr in the
cause of humanity, it is hoped that lie
will yet live to see the triumph OF the
cause for which we all fought and he
fell and our country again assume her
rightful rank as the leader OF the
world in righteousness.
The money given by the American
people will be the foundation or base,
and its income in the future USED 10
reward those men or women who un-
der striking service in promoting or
advancing those American principles
of international comfy voiced by Will
son. Every contributor will receive
recent for which a certificate Will be
issued
No apportionment of a definite sum
has been made to Carroll County; the
ouestion is not the amount OF money,
but rather | think the number VINO
will register themselves as still be-
lieying in the America for which VIII
son spoke.
Will YOU not mail or deliver at once
YOUR contribution to the Bank or per-
son in your locality which has con-
sSnted to receive it? The privilege oil
being a participant in this great
movement will end on the 9th OF the
month
1t would be high honor for Carroll
County to be able to then say, not
that she gave more money, but that
she has more contributors in proper
ton to her population than any other
county in the State.
And in this work our Churches anu
our various orders, societies ana OF
carnations can HELM: in fact without
this aid, which is earnestly besoughC,
. true reflection of the wonderful
spirit which inspired this great coun-
trv in 1917-1S cannot he had.

KILL THIS BILL

At the opening OF the Legislature
a Bill known as House Bill No. 4 was
introduced by Delegate Isador Beier-
field of Baltimore City, requiring all
automobilists in the State of Mary
land to furnish security guaranteeing
the payment of damages to the extent
OF $5,000 on account of the injury or
death OF any one person in any one
automobile accident and to the extent
of at least $4,000 on account of the
injury or death of more than one per-
son in any one accident, and further
to furnish bond to guarantee payment
to the extent of $1,000 on account of
damage to property in any one auto
mobile accident.
This Pill provides that such securi-
ty may he furnished by procuring an
indemnity bond from some authorized
Company or by depositing acceptable
securities or by pledging real estate
of the value of $4,000. The cost of a
surety bond to meet the requirements
of this bill will run from $500 per
annum up according to the make of
car and should this Bill become law
every automobilist in the State will
be affected.
There can be no possible excuse TOT
requiring every automobilist in the
State of Maryland to go to this ex-
pense for the reason that there are
thousands of automobile owners resid-
ing beyond the limits of cOngeSted
cities who rarely. if ever, have acci-
dents and it is, therefore, unjust and
unreasonable to require these people
to bear rhis heavy burden.
If this bill passes it will seriously
effect our residents and the farmers
who are owners of automobiles.
We hone and ask that our represen-
tatives to vote against the bill if it
comes up before them for passage.
