FACTS ABOUT MARYLAND PUBLIC

That Maryland in 1918 ranked 34th
among the 4S States in the Ayres' in
dex of school attendance and financial
support of schools, and that in 1890

Program for Education is
"A competent, well-trained teacher,

Hence, also, Tirana of Albania. Both

Geographic Society, concerning the
reported revolutionary attack upon
Tirana.
Amy city in Albania would serve
as a capital were the absence of a
railroad the only consideration. Du-
razzo, which has held that distinction
most of the time since Albania be-
came independent, in 1912, had no
railroad, but it had harbor. And a
harbor in the Adriatic, as in the case
OF Fiume. may be dangerous asset.
Until the beginning of the world war
Durazzo and Tirana were connected
by twenty-mile stretch of the only
well paved highway in Albania.
Albania as Storm Center.
with your conception of Albania
as rugged and primitive land, whose
people occasionally die from ordinary
disease, but more often from differ
ences of opinion you might be pre-
pared to find in Tirana a sort of
frontier settlement with few munich
pal refinements. If you landed there
in an airplane you would have few
evidences that you were in the pres
ent storm center of the widest coun-
try In Europe. You would see a rich
bazaar, wide, paved streets, mosques
of considerable beauty, many squares
with fountains playing in them, resi-
dences that are truly palatial, and
thrive.
You could acquire as souvenirs OF
your visit specimens of locally made
brass work, distinctive and beautiful
women and sold by them in the mar
ket places, and whether a smoker or

of the oddly and intricately carved

TWO TURKEYS WILL
EQUAL A HEIFER

Fred Weibner, who lives out south
east of Guymon, sold one Of his big
'gobblers this week for $500. This
bird was only one year old, but was,
of course, big one. The price of
turkeys, according to Shay, of. the
Guymon Meat Market, is so high that
many people will have to forego tur-
key meat this Thanksgiving. He tells
us that goo dtwo year old heifers have
sold on the local market as low as
$500, which makes a telling COM
parison. The turkeys forage for a
living, and seem to do fine, while the
feed shortage for the cattle is making
them a drug on the market at pres
ent. Quite a number of the farmers
are disposing of cattle on this &C.

SMALLPOX BAD IN DENVER

DR.. George s. Smith, County Health
officer, received the following letter
this week from C. H. Kinnamon, cpl
demiologist, Of Topeka. The small
pox epidemic IN Denver is said to be
much worse than it was in Kansas
City last year. The letter is as fol-
lows:
Topeka, Nov. "a.
County Health Officer:
Dear Doctor: Owing to the fact
that smallpox of the continent type
and of extreme virulence is in cpl
demic in Denver, Colorado, all pre-
caution should be taken in your coun-
ty to prevent this disease.
Investigate all suspicious cases so
that no missed case will occur to ex-
pose the people in your community.
There is no effective way to sup
press smallpox except by vaccina-
ton; those who do not wish to con-
tract the disease can easily protect
themselves by vaccination
We would suggest that you advise
the people of your county, if they
have not had a successful VAGINA
ton in recent years to be vaccinated.
Very truly yours,
