NOTICE TO ALL
DELINQUENT TAXPAYERS

This is to notify you that all delin-
quent taxes must be paid without fur
Their delay. So far l have been very
lenient with you, but the State and the
county are demanding collection of all
delinquent taxes.
Changes in the assessment cannot
be made by the Treasurer. If any as
sessment is incorrect the matter
should be taken up with the County
Commissioners.
A great many persons complain be-
cause their property is advertised for
delinquent taxes and say they are put
to a great deal of expense and humili-
alton on account of same. Remember,
if your property is advertised for de-
linquent taxes it is your fault and not
the fault of the Treasurer. Pay up
your taxes in full on or before the
first day of January of each calendar
year and your name will never appear
on the delinquent list.
l want to be of the greatest service
to you and help you all can, but
can not help you much unless you try
to help yourselves by being prompt in
the payment of your taxes and giving
HE dill LIE lHlOIlildtlol4 you Noii'
Never allow more than one years
taxes to be upon you at time; if you
have been in the habit of allowing
your taxes to double up, be sure to get
rid of that habit at once, as it is not
fair to me nor best for yourself and
cannot be permitted longer.
If you find anything wrong come in
and see me and talk the matter over
before complaining or mentioning it
to others.
Your very sincerely,
ALBERT L. LEE, Treasurer,
Garrett County, Md.

Guard Hero Flyer.

BY the Associated PreeS.
NEW YORK, June 11.--Whht
Washington was welcoming Charles
A. Lindbergh back to his homeland
today, New York was completing its
plans to give tho greatest greeting
in its history to the young flyer
whose fame q still measured by but
one leaf of a monthly calendar.
1t was just one month ago today
that newspapers carried dispatches
from st. Louis telling OF a young air
mail pilot who had flown in one hop
from San Diego, who intended to fly
to New York the next day, and who
then thought he would jump across
the Atlantic.
The popular reaction was sort OF
jocose surprise "Who Is this fell
low Lindbergh?' was the common
question. Never heard OF him be-
fore"
Considered as Joke.
And with Richard Byrd, whom all
the world knew for his fight across
the North Pole, and Clarence Cham
berlin. who had recently broken the
world duration flight record. already
preparing for a transatlantic night,
the plans of this young fellow from
the West were taken none too Sc
riously
But that was a month ago. To-day
not a person in the civilized world but
knows who Lindbergh is. what he has
done, what he looks like; not one but
would cherish the honor Of grasping
his hand or even Of watching him go
by along his path of glory.
So great is this desire to see If not
actually to touch the hero OF the day
that 5000 police will guard the line
of march on Monday, $500 more than
1t has ever before been thought nee
essary to utilize. And the police
will be augmented by soldiers and
sailors placed about the flyer so
closely that II is hoped they may hold
back the crowds Of enthusiastic ad-
mirers.
Not only will there he 5000 police,
but by system of subway lodging"
these 5000 will be enabled to do the
work OF more than twice that num-
Der. 1t was learned today that as
the procession from the Battery to
City Hall and then to Central Park
progresses. the policemen left behind
along the route will be rushed for
ward by special subway trains so that
they may augment their comrades up
ahead.
MdEcH Up DE0duWay.
Lindbergh is expected to alight In
the amphibian plane in which he Is
to fly from Washington at 10 o'clock
in the morning at quarantine. There
he will be picked up by the city tug
Macon and brought to the Battery.
Thence the procession will wind up
Broadway through the narrow cam
Won of the financial district to City
Hall, where Mayor Walker and other
| officials will greet the n er.
In the afternoon Gov Smith will
welcome him In Central Park, after a
procession up Fifth avenue, and add
another medal to the collection which
has become so numerous.
In the evening Lindbergh and his
mother will be guests of honor at a
small reception at the Long Island
home OF Clarence Mackay, not many
miles from the flying field " hence he
new to fame over the Atlantic wastes.
. The Lindberghs will spend the night
at the Mackay home.
New York's celebration will tn IN
continue for four days more.

who pioneered the air way to Europe.
The most picturesque was was one
showing the Statue of Liberty and the
Eifel tower with Lindbergh's beloved
plane, the spirit of ST. Louis" which
he always speaks of as we" making
the flight between the two while q
beautiful tableau lighted up the Mon
ument Grounds.
Extensive day and night programs
Of fireworks attracted thousands to
the Monument Grounds, while they
were visible also from all over the Dis
trict. Other thousands crowded on the
highlands about the Capital to view
the spectacle from altar.
Salvos of bombs added to the cheers
of the crowd at the close Of the Of
fetal reception on the Monument
Grounds, each bomb as 1t burst dis
playing small flags and eagles which
fioated over the crowd and which were
eagerly sought as souvenirs.
Tells President Of Flight.
In two extended conversations Col.
Lindbergh had with President and
Mrs. Coolidge in the temporary White
House yesterday afternoon the young
aviator devoted most of his discus
sion TO description of his reception
abroad.
While both the President and Mrs.
Coolidge inquired eagerly about his
experiences In flying over the ocean,
Lindbergh invariably reverted from
this story to tell of his welcome In
the European countries, particularly
in France. where he first landed.
Again and again he emphasized to
the President, who listened attentive
ly how France, England and Belgium,
the countries he visited, felt toward
the United States. He described this
feeling as warm and cordial, indeed"
Immediately after luncheon the
President spent half an hour in con.
versation with Col. Lindbergh and
again when he returned from the
White House executive office later in
tho afternoon he called for him. This
time Mr.. and Mrs. Coolidge spent an
hour with Lindbergh and his mother.

Notes of Lindbergh Celebration

The police. secret service and a
whole army Of troops notwithstanding.
one young woman succeeded yesterday
IN putting over an unscheduled hand
shake with Lindbergh.
AS the ayiator's ear turned into B
street on its way to the Monument
grounds Mrs. Alexander w. Burger
or st. Petersburg, Fla, darted
through the Gordon of troops, jumped
on the running board of the auton1o-
bile and shook hands with him. Then
she stepped back quickly into the
crowd.
Three Of Lindbergh's hackers from
81. Louis. Harry H. Knight. Harold M.
blxby and William 3. Robertson, were
among the first to call upon him at
the temporary White House.
We are hardly able to offer Col.
Lindbergh any. suggestions, because
MS ideas are always better than
ours" said Knight on leaving the
mansion.
1t is not possible to come to any
decision on Lindbergh's future plans
until he has arrived at st. Louis, and
the situation quiets down."
Knight said that Lindbergh ex-
pected to carry out his plan of flying
from New York to st. Louis.
Twenty soldier patients from Mount
Alto Hospital were afforded an un-
usual opportunity to pay tribute to
Col. Lindbergh.
Supt. George w. Hesse of the Bo
tanic Gardens. who had the soldiers as
ms guests on a reviewing stand, noti-
ned John Hays Hammand, chairman
Of
presence there.
When the big White House car
bearing the hero, his mother and Mr.
hammond arrived at that point, Mr.
hammond directed the chauffeur to
uFlVe over close to the curb so that
the soldiers could have a good view OF
col. Lindbergh. They gave him a
rousing cheer.
