outlined practical ideas and a we'll
defined program in his conference
with Mr.. Page.
The bicentennial committee Is now
widely scattered. but the individual
members, Mr.. Page said are earnest
ly working on various phases Of the
program. For example, Mr.. Fisher is
considering the fiVe-year nationwide
publicity necessary to put across the
ION to Washington" slogan and to
bring it about that every important
organization throughout the country
should meet in convention in Wash
ington that year.
DIR. Albert Bushnell Hart of
Harvard University, the historian, Is
working on three important historical
and literary lines, and progressing
most encouraginGly," he has report
ed to Mr.. Page. The first Of these Is
the preparation Of authentic lists or
Washingtoniana for use in the
elementary and high schools, colleges
and universities. The idea is to have
all students in the land study upon
Washington from the most authorita-
tive sources so that they will have
accurate and extensive knowledge or

The Presidents commission is aim

They hope to make the City of Wash

the American people who will come
here as to a shrine at which they will

renewed allegiance to our national

The tentative program is being pre-.

the building, which has been said by
prominent men of the State to be the
best kept public building lawn in the
entire State. The custodian of the
green, Oscar Notes, said yesterday
morning that he had been following
the workmen on their rounds and as
soon as one portion of the walls had
been completed he Immediately start

kept grounds surrounding it.
The wood work-cornices and door
ways-is being painted in color to

Oakland painters.
Garrett county's Court House has
many times before this been charac-

beautiful by the numerous couples
who received their marriage licenses
within its portals, and with the COM

Before very long the Garrett Coun-
ty Court House and the we'll kept
beautifully proportioned lawn sur
rounding it will present an exact pic
ture of their former self, with the pos
sible exception of the retaining walls,
which are expected to surpass in ap-
pearance and beauty their former at
Effectiveness. The Garrett County
Jail will also take on new appear

The work of improving the appear
ance of the public buildings was be-
gun several weeks ago when J. w.
Whorton, local contractor, with a
force of workmen, commenced to re-
pair the retaining walls about the
building and the steps leading from
the steet to the structure. Repairs
were made where necessary and later
the concrete work as an entirety was
gone over with specially prepared
white cement and then succeed, which
has been said by many to improve the
appearance of the surrounding very
materially. About two more weeks
will be necessary before the concrete

the proceeds thereof, so far as the in

Sand Blasting the Exterior.
The work of sand blasting the brick
and stone work Of the Court House
was started one day last week, and
gradually the building is beginning to
take on new appearance, looking
as it did just after its completion in
1905. According to those in charge
of this part of the work, six weeks
will be necessary to complete the
cleaning of the brick and stone of
the Court House, following which the
County Jail will receive attention.
In the meantime while this is being
done, workmen will be on the Court
House roof with a special preparation
that will remove the CRIME and ero-
sion from the copper roof and once
again it will reflect the sunlight and
be able to be observed as far as the
eye can reach.
1t is more than likely that the great
American eagle surrounding the top
most point on the dome of the stately
building will be given a thorough
cleansing, its first in twenty-five
years.

A newspaper man once visited a
business man. He talked ''shop" and
wanted the business man to purchase
advertising space in his paper, but the
business man was wise and said, "No;
advertising doesn't pay"
At the time the business man was
wearing a Stetson hat, Hart, Schaff-
ner & Marx clothing, Florsheim shoes,
B. V. D. underwear, an Ide shirt, Bos-
ton carriers, Simmons watch chain.
Elgin watch, Kum-a-Part cuff links,
Holeproof hosiery.
He drove a Buick car, ate Kellogg
corn fakes for breakfast, demanded
Monarch coffee, punched a Remington
typewriter, used Hammermill station
cry and shaved with Mennen's cream,
using an Auto-Strop razor.
His wife bought Arch-Preserver
shoes, Old Dutch Cleanser, Lux, Del
Monte canned goods, Swansdown flour
and Gossard corsets.
His son smoked Lucky Strikes and
bought Whitman's candies, drank Cola
Colas, wore Merton caps and said it
with flowers.
His daughter used Pompeiian cream
and Kiss-proof lipstick; also Djer-Kiss
powder.
His mother liked Paramount NOV
ing pictures.
His father smoked Prince Albert
and chewed Battle Axe.
His uncle used Kelly-Springfelds.
His brother was long since dead,
but he lay beneath Rock of Ages
