MT. LAKE PARK.

According to the published program
of the Park Association for the sum-
mer, next Sunday will be the closing
service in the tabernacle. If the
weather permits the attendance at
this service will be the largest of the
summer. 1t is Law Enforcement day.
The Gormania band is to take part in
the program Of the day. George W..
Crabbe, of Baltimore, and States At
torney julius c. Renninger will be the
morning speakers. In the afternoon
United States Senator Robert L. Owen
of Oklahoma, will be the speaker.
Those who hear him will enjoy a
treat
The radio fans of the Park were de-
lighted Monday night over the broad
casting programs which came in with
out interruption from 1000 to 1920

Marshall's solos, accompanied by the
band, thrilled her hearers.
The Schrock home, better known as
Army and Navy Headquarters, has
had good season. A number of out
side rooms were rented to accommo-
date the half hundred guests. The
home has its own electric, water and
heating plant, vegetable garden and
dairy.
Summer visitors are finding the
three bus lines now in operation great
conveniences as to time and expense
in reaching Fairmont, Morgantown,
Kingwood, Thomas, Davis, Frostburg,
Uniontown and intermediate points

The report of the operation of the
pea cannery published in The Repub-
lican last week was Garrett county
booster. The pay roll of 100000 for
the month of operation certainly
means much to the farmers, mer-
chants and employees. The canning of
corn to begin in few weeks, will dis
tribute many more dollars in the COM
munity.
Fishermen and fsherboys last Mon
day availed themselves of the oppor-

of the season at Deep Creek Lake.
Some small fish were caught by the
anglers.
The lawn tennis tournament last

greatly enjoyed by the large number
of people witnessing the various

Among the most important mon

nineteenth dynasty of Egypt, ruled
only two years and was then succeed
ed by his son, Seti I. The young ruler
took up the task bequeathed to him
by his father of leading his conquer

Lebanon and compelled the Syrian
princes to cut down some of the ia
nous cedars for his triumph. He
overran the Philistine country,

"Who, indeed?" he said.-"Oh, look

1t was curiously unlike him to do
an idle, clumsy thing like that. quite
as unnatural as that the vase, which
had never held a flower, should be
full of water. But suddenly something
in his face told me that the thing he
had done was part of a carefully cal

plunged her arm into the vase.

shoulder and stared, astounded, into
his thoughtful face. For high up on
