MRS. OSCAR OVERHOLT
DIED LAST SUNDAY
Was Resident OF Somerset County
And A Member Of Quinton
M. P. Church
(Communicated)

Mrs. Oscar -Overholt departed this
life November 1924.
S. Irene Overholt, daughter of Dav-
id and Sarah SoElenberger, was born
in Ohio, February 21, 1869.
Mrs Overholt was beautiful Chris
tan character, always ready and will
ling to help others. It could truly and
truthfully be said of her, she loved
her fellowmen.
At the age of twelve she united with
the church and to the day of her
death was a consistent member, and
devout worker when health permitted.
Funeral services were conducted by
her pastor, Rev. William Schmersir,
assisted by Rev. Bischoff, pastor of
Rehoboth Presbyterian Church, in the
Quinton Church, of which she had
been a faithful member for many
years. Interment was made in Quin-
ton cemetery.
She will be missed by her church.
her neighbors, friends and above all
by her family. Her place cannot be
filled. The high esteem in which she
was held was in some measure ex-
pressed by the beautiful floral tri-
butes.
She leaves to mourn her departure,
a husband to whom she was united in
marriage January 8, 1883. Three chill
dren, Hward, of CINCINNATI, Bruce,
of Freeport, Pa; Mrs. Mary Schrock,
of New Holandl, Pa, and an aged
father, who made his home with her.

The election is over. Coolidge will
be the next President of dthe United
States; T. Alan Goldsborough returns
to Congress; and Worcester county
will stay in the old rut, so far as bet
ter school buildings are concerned.
For the Presidency, Davis carried
twelve states, with an electoral vote
of 1876; Coolidge, "a with 379 votes;
and La Toilette 1, Wisconsin, with 13
votes; and one state, New Mexico, be-
ing at this writing, in the doubtful
column.
The next United States House will
have 225 Republicans, FOG Democrats,
Independents, Farmer-Laborites, So
cialists, one each; and one vacancy.
Governor Smith is again the Chief
Executive of New York state, and
Vic Donahey, Of Ohio, was also sue
cessful in the gubernatorial campaign
in that state. A woman, Mrs. Belle
Taylor Ross, is apparently elected
governor of Wyoming; and Mrs. Mir
lam A. Ferguson will occupy the gov
ernOr's chair in Texas, tho a contest
seems likely. Another woman, Mrs.
Florence Knapp, head of the home
economics department of Syracuse
University, will be the next Secretary
of State, chosen by the Republicans
with Smith as governor. Mrs. Mary
T. Norton will be the first woman
representative in Congress from New
Jersey, and Mrs. Coolidge will be the
first lady in the land.
In Maryland, Davis carried six of
the nine counties on the Eastern
Shore, Cecil, Dorchester, and Somer-
set, voting for Coolidge.
In the First Congressional fight,
Goldsborough carried every county
except Somerset by substantial ma
jorities, Queen Anne's topping the
score with majority of 1854. Mary
land gains one member in the House,
Stephen w. Gambrill having won out
in the. Fifth District, he taking the
place of the late Representative Mudd,
There will be three
two Republicans, and one

The U. S. Senate will be in doubt as
to it's political predominance.
Baltimore, Somerset, and Worces

Pocomoke district, No. 1, as usual
was the. .tSanner district of the county.
Out of a majority of 464 votes for
Davis and Bryan, 352 came from the
home district. Goldsborough's ma
jority in the county was 1144; in Po-
comoke district it was 431, over one
third the entire plurality
Out Of a total registration Of 9522
voters, only 5672 went to the poles,
showing that about one-third stayed
home. The comfortable democratic
majorities in the county showed a re-
versal from the results of the late
gubernatorial contest, in which
small majority was given for the Re-
publican nominee.

POCOMOKE HIGH SCHOOL
William Beauchamp Sets Example
That Other Students Would Do
Well To Emulate.

A short hours talk with Mr.. anc
Mrs. Beauchamp one Saturday after.
noon recently brought out the facl
that their son William, a student in
the agriculture department of the
High school, each year has cleaned ur
a little money on some projects on
the farm.
Last year and the year before pota-
toes were the source of most interest
To this boy. This coming year besides
other work he may do it has been de-
cided that the care of a SOW shall take
up part of his time. This is part of
the work he is doing in the course in
the High school. Mr.. Beauchamp, ST.
has some very good stock but it is
not definitely decided whether the
home stock VIII be taken or not.
AS a side line William is a breeder
of rabbits and has some very fine big
pure bred Belgian hares.
Information relative to the swine
projects in the agriculture department
Of the High school has been received
L. F. Redden of Beaver Dam has
some very good pure-bred big type
Poland Chinas. These will be put up
at public sale in few weeks. Thro'
the County agent, Mr.. Oswald, sew
eral breeders at Newark and at Chesa-
epake City have been considered as
possible sources of stock. All except
Mr.. Redden are good distance from
Pocomoke City.

Health of CAHdren.
DR.. Foote pointed to the lessened
amount of surgical bone and joint tuber-

years as examples Of the relation of
other branches Of medicine to the health

This decrease is due to the public
health campaign for tuberculosis-tested
