PEN-MAR PARK IS
OFFERED FOR
LEASE
Western Maryland Railway
Finds Operation No
Longer Pays

Because vacationists no longer
ride on trains If they have auto
mobiles, Pen-Mar Park, a noun
tain resort on the Pennsylvania
Maryland line, Is for rent.
The Western Maryland Railroad
which has operated the resort so
years has offered it for sub-lease.
Maxwell C. Byers, president OF the
railway explained that automobile
traffic has made such inroads upon
passenger revenue that the park
is no longer a paying proposition
for the railroad.
When the park was opened, Byers
said, everyone Travelled by carriage,
horseback or train. Pen Mar was
rather inaccessible except by train.
Since then good roads have been
laid to the resort and most every.
one goes there by automobile.
The resort is 1000 feet above sea
level and commands a view OF the
Cumberland Valley.

HIGHLAND BEACH
FENCE DOWN
Mayors Of Two Resorts Agree
to Make New Survey
of Lines

HIGHLAND BEACH. Md. Aug.
3.-The dispute over the barbed-
wire fence which for a few hours
divided this resort and Venice
Beach seems to have been settled
Mayor Osborn Taylor, of Venice
Beach, and a group of residents are
making a study Of the survey maps
to ascertain Just where the dividing
line between the beaches should be-
Some time ago Mayor Hayley
Douglas, of Highland Beach, ordered
the fence, a five.foot substantial af-
fair, erected along what was con-
sidered the dividing line.
The day after, seemingly under
orders of Mayor Taylor, the fence
was torn down. Taylor asserted
that the posts were on his property.
1t was generally asserted that the
fence was erected to prevent resi-
dents of Venice Beach from going
along the beach to Highland Beach.
This. however. was denied by Tay.
lor. who asserted that 1t was erected
to prevent trespassers from walking
along the beach front. Whatever
its purpose the fence is down and
feeling, aroused by the incident, has
quieted down, too.
