SEVEN DEAD OF "WHITE
PLAGUE IN GARRETT IN '25
With a Total of 1890 Deaths In
the Entire State

Seven deaths in this county and a
total Of 1890 deaths in the State OF
Maryland was the 1925 harvest of the
"White Plague, tuberculosis. These
figures recently issued by the Bureau
of Statistics of the State Health De-
partment, indicate that although
there has been a decline in the death
rate from Tuberculosis, the disease
is far from being under control. 1t
still reigns as the leading cause of
death between the ages of twenty
and thirty-five, which are the years
of greatest productivity and economic
value.
Funds obtained from the sale of
tuberculosis Christmas Seals are
used each year to combat this terrible
scourge. Seventy percent of all coun-
ty returns will remain in this county
to finance county health work. Five
percent will be sent to the National
tuberculosis Association to assist in
the nationwide fight. twenty-five
percent will be sent to the State Asso-
citation to help pay for supplies, and
services rendered. This twenty-five
percent in no way compensates for
the health services given this county
by the State Association, including
nursing service, the miracle House.,
and the regular monthly tuberculosis
Clinics.
The tuberculosis clinics which have
been held throughout the State for
three years have rendered the resi-
dents Of this county a distinct ser
vice. Known cases and suspected
cases have an opportunity to receive
expert diagnosis. This is done only
with the consent of the patients
physicians and in direct cooperation
with the local and State health au-
thorities.
tuberculosis Christmas Seals are
stickers for health. Stick them on
your mail and Christmas packages,
and they will stick until they get
there.

Every schoolboy who has read
American history knows that the In
tied States is not military nation.
With one possible exception,our strug-
gle against Mexico, we have only re-
sorted to war as last resort, and af-
ter every other means of settlement
had been found inadequate. And ev-
eryone knows that there is no mill
tary spirit in the United States today
probably less desire for war than
there has ever been in the history of
the country. But there is some differ
ence between disliking war and lying
down, oxlike, without defense of any
kind, as sort of general invitation
for any country which might seek to
modest US for one reason or another.

NORTHWESTERN PIKE WILL
Be FiSRT TO Be MARKED
Durable Signs Have Been Made
To Place Along Route Every
Few Miles In West Virginia

Handsme, durable signs, made in
West Virginia at the automobile IL
cense tag plant at Nitro, have arrived
in Parkersburg, and maintenance
forces of the State Road Commission,
under the direction of Major H. E.
Snyder will erect the signs on every
highway leading out of Parkersburg.
These signs are of the kind recon-
mended for use on all state highways
by the American Association of State
Highway Officials and it is hoped by
officials in the State to have every
State highway equipped with the uni
form direction signs.
All of the federal highways leading
from and through Parkersburg will be
marked first. Federal highways will
be marked with large white enamel
ed shield, similar to the shield in the
official seal of the United States. Let
tering is in black enamel and desig-
mates first of all the State of "W. Va"
at the top and underneath in slightly
smaller letters, ''U. 81, meaning the
road is federal highway. The only
other lettering is the number of the
highway.
Signs marking State highways are
rectangles, the longer sides parallel
to the supporting posts. These signs
used to mark State highways only,
also are of white background with
black lettering and containing only
the letters "W. Va, with the high
way number. By use of these signs
at intervals of several miles apart,
motorists are able to keep on the main
roads, avoiding side roads. These two
types of signs are the only ones to be
used in highway designation. Other
devices will include the marking of
telegraph and telephone posts thru
cities with the official colors, black and
white, with the letters indicating
State or federal highway, with the
: mber.
= Work on painting the poles in Park
ersburg to indicate State Route No.
81 also a federal route, and the North
western Pike, a federal route, will be
one of the first projects of the road
marking gang, and these two high
ways will be the first to be equipped
with official markers. Favorable con-
ditions of the weather will allow early
completion of the work, State road
officials stated.
Marking of highways, Major Sny-
der said, is secondary in Importance
only to building them. Without prop
er marking, he declared, a good road
is poor one because it cannot be
used to its greatest degree without
being marked. State Route No. 81,
which is also a federal route from
north to south, and the Northwestern
Pike, being the most Travelled and best
improved roads from and through
Parkersburg, work on installation Of
signs on these roads will be complet-
ed as soon as possible.

lcontInued from Firat -

Although the skeptics are busy
doubling the size and length there
are some among the fraternity who
are ready to believe every word.
Oscar Otis, caretaker Of the Presi-
dents camp, q long time resident up
here, who was on his fishing expedi-
ton yesterday, stated that the Presi-
dents pike was every bit OF pounds.
He admitted there were mo scales
available but -he-is willing To trust his
eye and knowledge. He hash I missed
d guess at the weight OF q FISH In
many q year. Oscar has an honest.
frank face and has q rnssnner Of talk
Ing that discourates corltIsldictich or
too close questioning on the part Of
his listeners. Therefore the writer
q inclined to believe the 4-pound res
port despite the Wagging and shaking
of heads by the slxeptics.
AS might be expected OF an amateur
sportsfnATi's wife. Mrs. Coolidge was
first among the douhters. However,
she did not remain skeptical long and
she was Just as enthusiastic over the
event as was the Chief Executive.
himself.
Mrs. Coolidge Skeptical.
When Mr.. Coolidge returned to the
cabin he lifted up the fish and, shak-
ing it before her with his fact actually
beaming, said, MY first cateh,"
. ssYoti mean Oscar OTIS was Mrs.
Coolidge's quick and thoughtless re;
ply.
Upon being actually assured by her
husband that the guide had not
caught the fish, as is usually the case
with gentleman sportsmen, Mrs. Cool

sn1oothed over her lack of tact by
saying she hoped he would GO. fish
ing often and bring home quantities
of, fish for the table.
This now famous pike occupied the
position of honor on the menu for the
evening meal.

much fishing, since he had such good
luck yesterday. There Is very little
