Are You Sure Your Child's
Birth Is Recorded?

In connection with the opening of
schools throughout the State, the
clerks in the Bureau of Vital Statis-
tics of the State Department of
Health, according to reports from
that Department, have been kept
busy answering inquiries and look
ing up birth records for parents
whose children have recently reached
school age. According to the school
requirements, all new pupils must
present satisfactory evidence of the
fact that they are approximately six
years old or over before they can be
enrolled.
If the births have been recorded
the requirement is easily met by par
ents who have carefully kept the card
that was mailed to them from the
State Department of Health, certify
ing that the birth had been duly reg
istered. If the birth was not recorded
by the attending physician or mid
wife, the parents may have consider
able difficulty in securing the neces-
sary certificates. In some places,
parish church records have been re-
sorted to. but unless such records
had been kept with great accuracy, it
has not been possible to obtain the
information that would be legally ac-
ceptable.
"Tests that we are making con-
stantly show that at least % per cent
of the births in Maryland are regis
tered promptly and accurately by the
doctors and midwives throughout the
State" said DR.. F. Y. Better, Statis-
tician of the State Department of
Health and Chief of the Bureau that
is the custodian Of the records of
births and deaths. But failure to
report single birth means the omis-
sion of that name from our records
failure to report as much as five per
cent would mean the omission of ap-
proximately 1850 names year, or
$3.50 in a five year period.
"The registration of a child's birth
is required for the benefit of the child
not to satisfy some whim of the
lawmakers. It is Of the utmost i'm
portance to the individual as it legal
ly establishes his identity. The child
may need the record some day not
only to prove he is of school age, but
to establish his right to property OF
to an inheritance; his right to vote;
to establish legitimacy; to prove his
/ birthplace; his age and citizenship
6 (this applies especially to foreign
born parents); to recover pension
claims, and for numerous legal and
other purposes.
"The registration of child's birth
is his birthright-the first and one
of the most important safeguards the
State provides for him. The doctors
and midwives throughout Maryland
are, as a whole, cooperating cordially
with the Department in the prompt
and accurate registration Of every
birth-but it is the duty of every
parent to find out whether such a rec
ord has been filed"

TONY MILLER Is AGAIN
TAKEN In BY OFFICERS
Arrest Was Made Early Sunday
Morning After he had Escap-
ed Arrest Preceding Night

Tony Miller, of near Deer Park,
once convicted bootlegger and shine
artist, is again in the arms of the
law and will likely remain a guest of
the State and county for some time to
come unless he can furnish the re-
quired amount of bond to secure his
release from the Garrett County Jail
where he has been since about four
o'clock Sunday morning at which
hour he was arrested at the home of
Robert L. Hoye, mile west of Oak
land by Sheriff Yutzy, assisted by
Deputy Sheriff Casteel and Constable
Andrew Shartzer.
Last December Term of Court Mil
Ter was convicted Of bootlegging and
was fined $500 which he or his friends
paid. At the June Term of Court he
was indicted for the same offense, but
learning before Court convened that
he would probably be in for an in
dictment, he left the State and was
in Pennsylvania and West Virginia
until Saturday evening when he ap-
peared in town. Sheriff Yutzy was
made acquainted with the fact and
went on a still hunt for the man. Mil
Ter, however, saw the Sheriff first
and made his escape by hiding be-
meath the platform skirting the B.
& o. tracks. Diligent search was
made for him by the officer, but he
could not be located at the time.
Thinking perhaps that Miller would
go to the Hoye home, the Sheriff got
up real early Sunday morning and
in company with the two officers
whom he had notified the night be-
fore, they went to that place and
in few minutes had effected the ar
rest of their man, bringing him to
town and placing him in jail where
he will be held pending his trial at
the December Term Of Court.
-Four Alleged Bootleggers Caught

Those arrested were George Burk-
holder, Mrs. George Burkholder, John
Swauger and his son, a youth Of II
years. The prisoners were brought
to Oakland and gave bond for THEN
appearance at preliminary nearing
to be held Monday.
The home of Perry Dennis, real
Bayard, West Va, was raided on last
Tuesday by Sheriff Yutzy and his
deputies where a complete brewery
was found in a bedroom located or
the second floor of the house. Much
hops and other ingredients IN large
quantities were found a part Of which
was confscated by the officers whicf
will be analyzed by Federal authori-
ties and if more than the Lawful
amount of alcohol is found. arrests

Nine VITAL FACTS

Here in brief FORM for your information nine
vital facts underlying of Dodge Brothers,
the goodness and value of their product.
Dodge Brothers, 1nc consider these facts fundamentally
important to the motor buyer that they will be re-
peated from time to time until every newspaper reader in
America may be presumed to have read them:

Brothers owners many millions

ing motor car life and by effect
ing marked economies in man.
ufacture. This construction has
also reduced incalculably the
danger from accident and fire.
Dodge Brothers sell directly
through their dealers to the
purchaser. There are no Sec
tional distributing agencies to
increase the cost of distribution
and the cost of the car.
Dodge Brothers have never
given so-called "free service"
The car is sold at a fair and
honest price. Nothing is added
to this original purchase price
topay for service that the owner
may never need.
Dodge Brothers Dealers were
pioneers in unanimously
adopting the flat rate service
system. BY this system, the
owner knows in advance what
any service job will cost There
are no unpleasant surprises in
his bills.
The sturdiness and long life of
Dodge Brothers Motor Car Is
reflected in its resale value.
Comparatively few Dodge
Brothers Motor Cars are adj
vertised in the resale columns Of
the newspapers. The values
they bring testify unanswerably
to their goodness-and the pub
lies belief in their goodness.
The Denver Jewish news., 1925-09-24

Dodge Brothers, during the
past eleven years, have built
and sold more than one million
four hundred thousand motor
cars-and more than 9O% of
these cars are still in service.
This record requires no COM
ment. It stands impressively
alone in motor car history.
1t has never been Dodge Bro
thers policy to build yearly
models. When an improve
ment that is really an i'm
provement, is discovered, it is
made at once. Their slogan,
Constantly Improved But No
Yearly Models" is familiar the
world over.
Dodge Brothers build one chas-
SiS and only one. This policy
materially lowers manufacture
ing cost. 1t also enables Dodge
Brothers engineers to concen-
trate their entire time and
thought on the betterment of
this one type.
Dodge Brothers have never
had an "off year" or an ~off
car. This is because they have
never used the public as test
ing ground for new models"
or lowered the quality of their
product in the slightest degree.
Every change has been an inn

design.
