insufficient, unjust or discriminative
we as citizens should see that proper
changes are made. In the meantime
let's observe the law and demand the
same of our neighbors. Every person
should put forth special effort in pro-

RHEUMATISM

IT'S GONE! That awful agonyl
i Rheumatism can't stand the rich,
red blood that s. s. s. helps Nature
build.
But rheumatism will bring pain and
misery to your joints and muscles just
as long as you are without plenty OF
rich, red blood in your system.
It's the red-blood-cells that s. S. s.
helps Nature build that drive out Of
your system the impurities that cause
rheumatism. And until you do build
up your blood to where It is pure and
rich and red, you simply can't get rid
Of rheumatism.
And S. s. S. is the thing. Red blood
conQuers rheumatism. Everybody
knows that.
s. s. S. means millions Of red-blood-
cells-means health all ~
over. No more rheuma' /.m
tism. Nights of rest-[&NN !
days Of joy, filled with \0.OO/
the happiness of accom-
plishment - made pos
sible by a body brimful
OF red blooded life, energy and vitality.
That's what the end of rheumatism
means--that's what s. S. s. brings to
you. Get s. s. s. from your druggist.
The larger bottle is more economical.

THE GARRETT MEMORIAL
CHURCH BEING DECORATED
DuBrau Art Company of Cum
berland to Begin Work on
Interior This Week

The DuBrau Art Company, Miss
Gertrude DuBrau, Cumberland, man
ager, has the contract for re-decorat-
ing the Garrett Memorial Presbyterian
church in Oakland, work upon which
will begin yet this week.
The DuBrau artists decorated this
editice several years ago, since which
time the walls have become badly de-
faced by time and to restore the prop
erty to its former beauty it was de-
cided several weeks ago to redecorate
it, the color scheme being somewhat
changed from that foremerly used,
and which will be, it is said, more in
harmony with the architecture of the
building.
On account of this work going on,
Rev. Henry A. Grubbs, the pastor, has
announced that there will be no fur
ther services in the church until fu-
ture notice.

9ERAILMENT OF COAL CARS
STOPS TRAFFIC ON B. & 0.
Main Line Passenger Trains De-
toured Following Wreck on

A wreck of proportions, following
the derailment of six car loads of coal
in Jones' Cut, on the Seventeen-Mile
Grade of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road, west of Swanton, this county,
late Saturday evening, blocked the
entire system for six hours, necessi-
tating the detouring of passenger
train No. l and the National Limited
from Cumberland over the Pennsyl-
vania division to Connellsville and
thence to Fairmont,
Train No. II, eastbound, which is
due to leave Oakland at eight o'clock
in the evening, was held at 4 point
near the wreck until after midnight.
The National Limited, said to be
the finest and fastest passenger train
equipment in use in the entire coun-
try, has been making remarkable
runs since it was placed in service
several weeks ago. One morning it
passed eastward through Oakland run
an hour and forty minutes late. The
train arrived in the Union Station at

JARVIS ADAMS Wins The
MT. LAKE PARK SINGLES
Pittsburger Defeats Kier Boyd
and Takes Second Leg of
Cup-Miss Wright Loses

Age triumphed over youth in the
championship tennis match played on
the courts at Mountain Lake Park
during the greater part of last week,
for the Western Maryland title when
S. Jarvis Adams, Of Pittsburgh, de-
feated Kier Boyd, Of the same city in
straight sets, 60, 6-2, 60.
In all more than a hundred entries
at the beginning Of the tournament
on Monday last were made. In the
course of elimination every local play
er, with one exception, went down in
defeat at the hands Of the out of coun-
ty opponents.
Adams, crafty net general, past 45
years of age, pushed his opponent
Boyd, throughout. Boyd is captain
Of Dartmouth's tennis team and one
Of the neatest racQueters in the tri-
state region, was completely beaten.
Adams started with a hard hitting
and fine placement game and proved
before long that he is not has-been
and the crowd cheered many of his
side-line shots. He was master and
although Boyd tried his best and used
all his tricks, its was the older mans
day. Last season the same two men
were pitted against one another in the
finals. Boyd winning in 1921, Adams
won his first leg on the cup last year,
his victory this year bringing him the
satisfaction of being the only man to
get the challenge trophy twice.
West Virginia won against Penn
sylvania in mems doubles when HUI
gus and Russell Goodwin, Wheeling
pair, took over Adams and G. A. Saw
in, also a Pittsburgher, by the scores
of 6-2, 0-6, Ga, 7-5. The struggle was
a hard one, but Sawin was a bit off
color while Hugus and Goodwin team
ed well together, bringing into play
some great network.

STORE BURGLARIZED
Oakland Hardware and Furni-
ture Co.'s Establishment En-
tered Sunday Night.

Sometime during Sunday night the
store Of the Oakland Hardware and
Furniture Company in Oakland was
entered and robbed of merchandise.
The burglar entered the store room
after he had cut a glass from one of
the rear windows and stole a revoI-
yer and several flash lights. Other
articles may also have been carried
away, but those mentioned above are
all that were missed when the store
was opened for business on Monday
morning.
Last night at the home Of Mrs. E.
H. Sincell two men were seen running
from the rear of the house and upon
investigation it was found that a
heavy screen enclosing the back porch
of the dwelling had been cut away so
that an entrance could be effected.
The men separated after they had left
the premises, one of whom ran down
a private alley in the rear of the res
licences along the block and entered
Second street where it connects with
Pennington street, while the second
man walked through the yard of Mrs.
Austin Brown and Joined his compan-
ion in front of Mrs. Browns house.

tional Road, Tuesday afternoon at five
o'clock Mrs. Conrad Bonheimer, the

shoulders. Her condition, however, is
not regarded as serious. Mrs. Edna
Shelbear, Meyersdale, Pa, whom Mrs
Bonheimer and her daughter were
visiting, received decorations on the
arms, face and hands. Cuts on her
arms, required fifteen stitches to close
Mrs. NJ. K. Toole, former superinten-
dent Of the Miners Hospital, now liv-
ing in Meyersdale, and John Horning,
driver of the wrecked car, of the same
place, received minor cuts and bruises
about his face, arms and body.

land Tuesday afternoon and upon the
return from that city the accident oc-
CURED. Wet and consequently slippery
roads, after a shower, quick applica-
ton of the brakes and crash into
culvert head at the side of the road
fronting the Layman farm, were the
causes given for the accident. The
automobile overturned.

Boy Scouts News Items.

The Oakland Troop of Boy Scouts
was the guest of Mr.. Raymond Houck
on Monday last when he took them in
his big buss to visit his mines in Tun-
Melton. Upon arrival they were taken
into the mine in the coal cars and
given demonstration in digging
coal, in fact they all became miners
for the time being. The ride of seven
ty miles was a treat and delight, so
was the liquid refreshments which
Mr.. Houck gave the boys. We appre-
ciate the fact that a busy man was
willing to give his day and stood the
expense, but he will not be the poorer
thereby.
Then later on in the week, Thurs
day and Friday the boys, upon the
invitation of DR.. H. w. McComas,
hiked over to his dam and parked
themselves in the shack, delightfully."-
situated in an old orchard of trees.
This a beautiful spot and the Doctors
pet hobby bids fair to become a real
asset to the scenic beauty of the al
ready beautiful Garrett county. A
great many scout tests were passed
and eleven boys passed their work for
their first merit badge in swimming.
A local Court of Honor will soon be
established and before this court all
merit badge work will be passed.
