RECEIVERS TYPEWRITERS

A few weeks ago the office of the
H. M. Spahr Breeding Estate was en-
tered and three Royal typewriters re-
moved therefrom. On monday they
were found to be secreted on Mr.
Spahr's property, not far from his Of
flee.
Bruce Houck, of near Lewistown
has been arrested, charged with the
theft. He was taken in Frederick
while trying to sell one of the ma
chimes. He said he went to Mr.. Spahr's
Office shortly after dark and forced
open the door. After looking around
he saw the typewriters and carried
them to an old shed on the property.
On Monday he took one to an agent in
Frederick and offered it for sale. Dep
uty Bartgiss became informed of the
fact and located the lad while he was
trying to dispose of it.

DELEGATIONS ASK IMPROVED
ROADS


Two delegations, each of about forty
or fifty persons, one from Thurmont
and vicinity and the other from the
neighborhood of Mt. Pleasant and Nc
Kaig, appeared before the County
Commissioners Monday and requested
that recommendation be made to the
Good Roads Commission to include in
the improved road mileage for this
county this year, stretches of road in
the localities represented by the dele
cations. The commissioners promised
to make the recommendations.
The Thurmont delegation headed by
Chas. C. Waters and other prominent
citizens and property owners, asked
that the four miles of highway be
tween Graceham and Rocky Ridge be
converted into a State Road. Two
miles of this highway was recommen-
ded last year for state Improvement
but this did not materialize. The del
egation felt that in addition to the two
miles expected last year the remaining
two miles should be urged for this
year, which will complete the stretch
1t was shown that the road is an i'm
portant highway and that its improve
ment would afford convenience to q
large number of taxpayers.
The County Commissioners and
delegation from Thurmont will ap'
pear before the State Roads Commits
sion in Baltimore today in behalf Of
this improvement

A GREAT LOSS

AS time moves along many changes
are made, here and elsewhere, for the
improvement and betterment of bust
ness conditions. :,
In this march Of progress Thurmont
now loses one great asset-the Com
munity Club Room-the use of which,
together with the necessary heat and
light, has been freely extended with
out charge, to the public for number
of years.
The public generally, churches, So
cieties, organizations of all kinds in
the town and community have bene-
fitted freely and without restriction by
the Community Room and its passing
will be felt by all.
The directors of the Thurmont Bank
have found it necessary to have more
room for thir banking business, and
decided to arrange the first floor so
that the Club Room could become a
part of the banking room. Workmen
are now engaged in making the chan
ges according to plans prepared by an
architect. Thus while the general pub
lie loses the gratuitous use of COM
Portable and convenient room for gath
erings of various kinds, the bank is
making for itself and its patrons many
convenences not heretofore enjoyed.
That the institutions business has
fully justified the bank directorate in
making the proposed changes is q
cause for civic pride.

HARD ON STREETS

The passing of snow and ice from
our streets the past week show that
the automobiles and rough shod horses
have been hard on the paving. Many
stones have been torn loose and holes
worn in the roadbed by automobiles
travelling in practically the same
tracks while water was being held
thereon by snow and ice. It begins
to look as though the streets would
need a new coat of stone and oil next
