GOLD STAR MOTHERS

Congressman are being asked to
vote for what is known as the Gold
Star Pilgrimage. The mothers of vet
Grams killed in the World War may be
given trip to foreign cemeteries
where their sons are buried, with the
Government defraying all expenses.
Don't scorn this idea. Would that
it were possible to send all mothers
to France, so that their eyes might
look upon those pitiful rows of cross
es, those thousands upon thousand of
graves wherein lie buried the very
flower of modern civilization.
If we might all make yearly pill
grimage to those tombs perhaps we
could better realize the awful tragedy
of war, the inevitableness of the death
of youth. Perhaps we should feel our
selves murderers, we who shouted and
cheered when the war-god passed,
with all the finest and best boys Of
France and England and Germany
and Italy and Austria and America

SENATORIAL AMENITIES.

Mr.. Bruce-Simply because l men
ton the Volstead act or the eigh-
teenth amendment is no reason why
the lips of the senator from Virginia
should foam like the lips of a python.
He seems to find lofty phide in the
fact that he has never taken drink.
All l have to say on that subject is
that, in my humble opinion, he has de-
MED himself of very rich measure of
a perfectly legitimate enjoyment.
Mr. Glass-Mr. President, may l re-
mind my friend, the senator from Ma
ryland, that | never ventured on that
topic at all until he was unkind
enough to suggest that l had taken
too many drinks.
Mr.. Bruce Perhaps that was pro-
voked by the very vehement way in
which the senator from Virginia
sometimes throws himself into de-
bate.
Mr.. Glass-Of course, the senator
from Maryland is so characteristic
cally temperate that he cannot appre-
ciate vehemence in anybody else.
Mr. Bruce-All have to say is that
if everybody had the same ardent
temperament that the senator from
Virginia has, myself would be very
strongly in favor of prohibition if it
could possibly be made enforceable.
Passionate as is the temperament of
the senator from Virginia, if he were
to take drink, God only knows what
murderous consequences would follow.
From the Congressional Record.
The subject formally before the Sem
ate was not discussion of personal
liberty, the eighteenth amendment or
the Volstead act; it was the fifteenth
amendment to the Constitution and
the relation of the South's election
laws and practices to that amend
ment.
The quoted bits of pleasantly were
merely an interruption of formal
address by Senator Swanson of Vir-
ginia. There were many other equal
ly irrelevant. Interruptions. Thus ran
the time away and the public pays
the bill.

LOCAL CIVIC CLUB HELD
ITS MEETING ON TUESDAY
At Which Special Features were
introduced and Carried Out.

The regular monthly meeting of
the Oakland Civic Club was held on
Tuesday afternoon in the Garrett
County Court House which was well
attended
To make the meetings little more
interesting, Mrs. Arthur Naylor, the
acting president. of the organization,
endeavors to have a special feature
presented at each successive session.
At Tuesday afternoons meeting a de-
cidedly interesting talk was given by
Miss Helen Kinnick, her remarks be-
ing based on the drama. After few
comprehensive remarks on the drama
in general she gave brief reviews of
three plays she had witnessed in New
York during the holiday season.
The first one, by Ibsen, can Enc
my of the People," was an ironic type
Of drama. 1t was an 1870-style of
play and the settings of the period
were carried out to the smallest de-
tail.
The second was one of Shaw's
"wordy'' plays, "The> Doctors Diem
ma" In discussing this play, Miss
Kinnick quoted from New York
critic who said, at is a very wordy
play, but very good wordy." One is
never supposed to laugh at one of
Shaw's plays but in this there were
several humorous touches which made
it an interesting entertainment.
The third and last play reviewed
was "Porgy," by Dubose and Dorothy
Haywood. This is an American play
in the realistic style based on Negro
life in Charleston. All the characters
in the play were real Negroes but
three. Miss Kinnick's analysis of
this play was most interesting.
Miss King, County Public Health
Nurse, reported on the work being
done for the crippled children in the
county. A note of pleasure was evil
dent when Miss King said that prog
ress was being made all along the line
in this most laudable undertaking.
The Club was asked by Miss King
to make request for old clothing for
the needy at this time. Her supply for
the unfortunate is quite low and she
is constantly having requests for all
kinds of clothing. Anyone having
clothing for either children or adults
which they will donate will please call
phone 134-W and their package will
be called for and delivered to the
proper person.
