Walter Scott Collins.

Mr.. Walter Scott Collins. of Potomac dis
trict, Montgomery county, Nd. has an
nounced his candidacy for County Com
missioner for the fourth district to succeed
DR.. Benjamin c. Perry. of Bethesda. Md.
DR.. Perry was appointed to fill the unex-
pired term Of Harry j. Hunt, who resigned
after holding Office as County Commits
sioner about one year.
Mr.. Collins believes that the citizens of
Montgomery county are more interested
in the actual reduction of their taxes than
in the mere technical manipulation of
phrases. He maintains that the lowering
of the tax rate is of little consequence
compared with the materially increased
assessments. whereby tax bills rendered
for the fiscal year have been doubled,
trebled, and in some instances even higher.
Mr.. Collins stands for a general reduc-
ton in the running expenses Of the county.
Walter Scott Collins is a lifelong resi-
dent of Montgomery county and one of its
most prosperous farmers. His friends feel
in the selection of Mr. Collins the Office of
County Commissioner will receive BUSH
ness like administration.

friends and death was due to apoplexy
and was instantaneous. He was 81 years

the bar about the time he attained his

gether. For many years he practiced in
Rockville, and was regarded as one Of the

reached the age limit of seventy years,
Judge Peter was appointed by the Gov
ernor to serve out his unexpired term and
a year later was elected for the full term

expired in 1928.

dent of the State Bar Association, was

Sacred to the memory of my dear boy

five years ago to-day. August 20, 1918.
No one knows my longing.
And few have seen me weep.
shed my tears from an aching heart
While others are fast asleep.
How happy we we're in days gone by.
When our circle was fully complete.
But now it is broken. another is gone
To sleep at the Savior's feet.
Dear Willis. how we loved you.
But our love was all in vain,
God saw your suffering here was great,
So He freed you from your pain.
am trying so hard to meet you
Some day on that beautiful shore.
Then, oh Master, let me have him
To love as did before.
By his loving Mother.
He is gone but will never be forgotten
by any of US.
