of Oakland, County Agent for Gar
rett county.
DR.. Thomas L. Gibson, supervisor
of music, visited the high school and
grammar school, April 80. We thor
oughly enjoyed his hour spent with us
and made US feel very much ashamed
that we had not done more along the
line of singing in our high school. We
hope to have some course in our
school next year that will take care
of that part of our high school life.
Lieut.. Grove, of the c. NJ. T. c., U.
S. Army, was visitor to our school
last week in the interest of getting
the high school boys of Garrett coun-
ty to enter some training camp for
the month of July. He thoroughly
explained the work and fun that is
derived from one month spent with
other red-blooded American boys I'M
der the training of Uncle Sam. AS yet
none of the boys here have signed to
go. We hope, however, that some of
them will take advantage of this OPP
portunity to secure this training
which is so important to our coun-
try and the peace of the world.
Mr.. F. E. Rathbun, County Super
intendent, was also a visitor to the
high school this week, getting a line
on the work necessary to the finishing
up of this years program. We are
always glad to have him with US.
Mr. Robert L. Wilson, member of
the County Board of Education, spent

a meeting of the State Board of Ed
ucation and of the county boards of
the State.
The FREEMAN class gave a play for
the benefit of the school in the Mary

same time we showed the picture of
hunting scenes in Maryland, sent to

sum of SAP was cleared on this &C.
casion. A local quartet, consiting of
Mr., and Mrs. Ed. Burns, Mrs. Ada
Sapp and Mr.. Ryall, furnished the
music for the occasion.
