A quick getaway by parties in

the scene exactly 80 minutes after the
accident happened and chased some of
the party east but was unable to To-

country road and skipped that section.
According to the story two Fords
from Massachusetts were racing east

PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE
AND SCHOOL ATTENDANCE
Increase In Latter Since Work
Was Begun By the Former

That public health is one of the
great factors in making good school
attendance possible is the opinion of
Garrett county school officials and of
teachers, who are now making a care
full study of means of improving at
tendance at school and a united, in
telligent effort to keep up a high per-
centage of attendance.
Due to many causes the percent
age of attendance in Garrett county
schools is steadily creeping up. In
November and December, 1924, for
instance, Garrett ranked first among
the counties of the State in the at
tendance in elementary white schools
of three or more teachers; fifth in
two-teacher schools, and ninth in one
teacher schools. Considering climate
and roads and distances between
school house and home in Garrett
county this is an extremely credita-
BILE record.
without healthy children we
struggle in vain to attain the best
attendance in our Schools" said one
Of our Garrett county teachers who
is an enthusiastic worker for 100 per-
cent attendance. "Many other fac

tors, like interest of the children
themselves, cooperation of parents
and diligence of teachers and school
authorities are working wonders in
bringing about the attendance rec
hrd that we are proud of. Health
alone without the cooperation of US
all would not do it. But the work of
the public health nurse is a great fac
tor in making it possible for us to at
tain what we are attaining"
During the fall months of 1924 the
percent of attendance in Garrett
county schools was 90.2 as compared
with 87.4 percent in 1922 when we
had no county nurse.
Since the work of the health nurse
has been fairly started the school au-
thorities have not been hindered in
their efforts to attain good attend
ance thru epidemics and contagious
disease that make it necessary either
to close schools or to keep schools
open with very low attendance.
The characterization of pupils in at
tendance at the public schools has
been developed by the public health
nurse with the result that many are
today being vaccinated against small
pox.
Since the public health nurse be-
gun her work in Garrett county no
schools have been closed officially on
account of local epidemics, whereas
two or three years ago that was a
very common procedure.
Miss Wiedman is a persistent wor-
ker for public health here. January
she spent in Kitzmiller. She has in
spected all the children of the Kitz-
miller grammar school as we'll as o.
the Vindex school. Thru Miss We'd
mans effort and the splendid cooper
alton of the Kitzmiller physicians, DR..
Nicklas, of the Maryland Tuberculo-
sis Association, was enabled to con-
duct very successful clinic at Kitz-
miller.
In January, Miss Wiedman held
nineteen home nursing classes. The
women Of Kitzmiller showed their ap-
probation of our nurse on January
Both when they gave a royal reception
and served bountiful refreshments in

PUTS EDUCATION COST OF
CHILD IN COUNTY At S7O6
State Department of Education
Estimates Expenses For II
Years of Schooling

with expenditures as they were in
the scholastic year 1923-1924, the
total average cost of educating a
child in the elementary and high
schools of the counties is approx
mately S706" This estimate was in
cluded in a statement issued one day
last week by the State Department
of Education.
The cost of educating a child in
the schools of Baltimore is approx
mately S1,016, according to the state
ment. These. estimates, it was ex-
plained, are based on the annual ex-
pense cost of S45 for each white child
in the elementary schools and S98 for
each child in the high schools for
white children of the counties.
"That is to say" the statement con-
tinued, con the basis of the cost of
education in 1923-1924 the total cost
to Maryland of sending child thru
all the grades of an average county
elementary school and thru the four
years of training in an average coun-
ty high school is S706.
"This amount excludes any esti-
mate of expenditures for the land
and buildings used for school pur-
poses 1t seems small enough to
spend when, largely thru the educa-
ton acquired in these II years, the
average county citizen is able to give
service to the community worth in
one year more than the total cost to
the community of his or her entire
education.
"Many pupils, of course, leave the
elementary schools before graduating
and others who enter high schools
drop out before graduation. The total
cost to the community, therefore, is
less than the estimated S7O6 for each
pupil"

kitzmiIler HIGH School Notes

The parents and teachers of the
kitzmiller High School met in the
school building on February 4 for the
regular meeting for the month of
February. Forty mothers, nine teach
ers and one father were present. The
meeting was in the form of a tea
given by the Freshmen and Sopho-
more girls under the direction of
Miss Schramm. 1t was a tour of in
spection of the new Home Economics
Department of the High School. The
students gave an exhibition of their
work and showed their dresses to
the mothers as. one of their big ac-
complishments for the year.
The principal laid before the par
ents what we were attempting to do
for library books for the two schools
fUr the year. They promised their
help. We shall make this drive for
books during the month of March.
The boys of the grammar school,
with Miss Beulah Walker as their
teacher, gave a supper to the fathers
Of the boys in her class. About twen-
ty boys were present and ten of the
fathers. This was a get together
meeting for the fathers of the boys
in the school. More will be held in
the future. Dues will be collected for
the year the first week in March.

Herod brought ne relief for the claim
of messiahship was taken as a joke
at both courts and He was robed in
some cast-off, regal garment and re-
turned to PLATE. Every plea of in
nocense by the Judge was countered
by the Priests until they grew desper-
ate in fear that their quarry would
escape with direst consequences to
themselves. Hating Rome they
proclaimed their loyalty to the en-
pire and threatened to report the
case to Caesar. And Plate dared not
face the throne. 1t was not that he
might have defended his course in
this case but there were other things
that could be dragged into the light
and he dared not have them uncover
ed. 1t was the clutch of yesterday
that made his heart cringe and rob-
bed him of courage for his day.
Judge Craven was made so by the sin
he dared not face and there are many
of US who are in the same situation.
JUDGE LYNCH
That has a familiar sound in Amer
lea. It was not the name but it was
the final judge in the case of Jesus.
Under the pressure of hate and the
craven withdrawal of all defense
there was left nothing but the will of
the mob manipulated by shrewd
hands. These were not the visitors
who had shouted themselves hoarse
in the triumphaI entry but the Great
ures of the city who like the parents
of the seeing blind man were under
the lash of the authorities and who
would cry anything at their order.
Whipped into the area they shouted
their bloody demand for crucifixion.
They filled the air with clamor and
when the choice of Jesus Barabbas or
Jesus the Christ was presented they
were soon shouting their directed cry.
He was not a patriot but rather a
bandit for if he had been one Of the
popular Messiah leaders who had
been reising an insurrection PLATE
was too shrewd to put him over
against the Nazarene he was seeking
to release. But Christ was little
known to this crowd of puppets mad
with blood lust and under the incite-
ments of their over-lords. When
these said, "Barrabas" they knew no
other cry. Their bread and butter
was in danger and their voices were
shrill in consequence. 1t is the mad
ness of Herrin that knows no reason
but passion. Savage selfshness was
there and no life is safe in its pres
ence. They swept Plate from his
place of power and carried Jesus to
! the shotted scourge. Justice was
fartherest from their thinking as it
always is when Judge Lynch takes
authority and every barrier went
down before its clamor that black
| day.
The real tragedy was in the love of
Jesus. He gave Himself and refused
to do other than continue to love.
Hate could not conquer that attitude
and had no victory for it is only as
we cast aside our love and descend to
hate that we are conquered. And it
was the last and greatest of the bat
ties won by our Lord during His ap-
proach to the cross. Having loved
His own He loved them unto the end.

the lake shore through the trees.

with the warmth and languor of the
day that had passed. She said, With
little break in her voice; "Oh,

her shoulders, held her so. "Chickie,

She tried to smile, awed by the
tenseness in his face. He took out
his handkerchief, drew it over the
thick, glossy hair. Presently the
smile returned to the red, flashing
