Miss Beulah Wiedman, our new
Garrett county public health nurse,
who comes here from Nebraska. is
planning her work with foresight and
enthusiasm. Miss Wiedman is we'll
educated, we'll trained for her work
and possesses a very pleasing person.
atty.
Last year thru inspection of school
children "our nurse" did what is of
such great value that the results can
hardly be estimated. Six hundred and
thirty school children were inspected
and three hundred and two-nearly
one-half-were found in some way
defective.
flames can't learn" one mother
had said to Miss Vida Getty. When
Miss Getty came to inspect the chill
dren in James school she discovered
that James had great difficulty in
reading his lessons because his vision
was defective. Miss Getty immedi-
ately advised the mother, who had
thought her boy dull, to take him to
an oculist and now James is progress
ing rapidly in his school work.
If this were the only case where
the nurse had ''given a start" to a
child whose life might otherwise have
been a failure, we citizens of Garrett
county would feel repaid for keeping
her. But the finding and correction
of just such cases is a daily occur
renee.
Last year epidemics of scarlet fe-
yer, of diphtheria and of whooping
cough were prevented in a number of
cases by the work of the nurse. Just
as soon as one case of contagious dis
ease was reported in a school the
nurse went to other schools, saw that
quarantine and proper preventive
measures were carried out, Alone
this work of epidemic prevention
would justify US in keeping enough
nurses to cover Garrett county ter
ritory. Our one regret is that with
only one nurse on duty much of the
time, it is impossible Tor her to an
swer all of even the urgent calls.

Fined For Trespass and NiOlat-
ing Game Law.

On Saturday, Game Wardens R. H.
Browning and D. c. Rulings had
Jesse Noel and Orville Shreve, of
Gormania, West Va, before Justice
Williams at German on the double
charge Of hunting without license and
trespassing on the lands Of P. A
Chisholm. of District No. s. Each of
the parties entered pleas of guilty on
the charges made against them and
fines of $50 and costs in each case i'm
posed. The fines were paid and the
parties dismissed. This finding on the
part of the Justice should serve as a
warning to the public and sportsmen
that it is cheaper to abide by the
law than to violate any of its provis-
ions.

A Letter to the Patrons of the

1t was suggested at the last meet
ing of the Oakland Parent-Teachers'
Association that many residents of
Oakland who subscribed for standard

tribute them to the school after they
have finished reading them. Acting
upon this suggestion, we are asking
one of our pupils to call on you. If
you can arrange to give us the use
of your month-old magazines will you
check the list and tell US whether you
wish some one to call each month to
collect the magazines you can spare.

DAWES 266 VOTES
Right-Thinking People will Take
No Chances and Will Vote
The Republican Ticket

Several weeks ago l called atten-
ton to the fact that there is danger
of having the election of President
thrown into the House of Representa-
tives-the present House that will
meet the first Monday in December.
This fact has received comment and
consideration in every state in the
Union. The danger of losing out in
the electoral college vote is stirring
straight-thinking voters to make sure
that President Coolidge is elected in
November by refusing to try an ex-
pertinent along Democratic or indie
pendent lines.
The real issue is not "honest gov
eminent" or "honest officials" for ali
want that. The real issue is whether
President Coolidge and a Congress to
support him shall be elected in
November. This determination to
elect in November has taken hold of
the people tremendously during the
last month. The danger to elect next
November is passing away.
If the election is by any possibility
thrown into the House, the vote will
be, from present indications, as fol-
lows, each state having one vote:
COOnQge ............Zl
DAVIS ...............Z1
La Toilette
States tied ......
If the House gets into a deadlock,
neither candidate receiving a major
ity of the votes (25), the election of
Vice President would take place in
the Senate, not by States, but by
members. A combination of Demo
Gratis and La Follettes might elect
Charles Bryan, Vice President. I'm
less the House elects a President by
the 4th of March, the Vice President
elected by the Senate will become the
President.
This situation makes it imperative
| that the believers in a conservative
and safe administration and in sound
Republican principles, vote for Cool
idge and Dawes next month. Presi-
dent Coolidge can be elected all right
if the Republicans and sound Demo
Gratis get out and vote for him. There
are enough protection and sound
money Democrats to put Coolidge and
the party of protection across in No
vember

THE ELTINGE

Touching four countries and deal
ing with three cintinents, the story
told by 1.-THE Next Corner" is so
closely knit by dramatic action that
the spectator is scarcely conscious of
travelling over thousands ofmiles Of
sea and land.
The picture deals with the situa-
tion which arises when man and
his wife, devoted to each other, are
separated by the necessities of the
husbands profession. Robert Maury,
portrayed by Conway Tearle, goes to
the Argentine for three years. He
leaves his young wife, Elsie, played
by Dorothy Mackaill, in setting
which she herself selects, the city of
Paris.
Ricardo Cortez, in heavy role,
Lon Clancy, as you've always want
ed to see him-without makeup, and
louise Dresser complete the featured
players in the cast Of. the picture
which will be the feature at the Ell
tinge Thestre, today and tomorrow,
Monday and Tuesday.
