WAR HAS BEEN DECLARED
AGAINST WINGED ENEMIES
State Board OF Health Will Car
ry On Battle Against Pests

The appearance of scouting groups
of bloodthirsty winged enemies, in
various parts of the State, has result
ed in a declaration of war against
them. Surveys are being made, State
and Federal forces are mobilizing and
in some sections of the State, notably
in the lower sections of the Eastern
Shore, an aggressive campaign is I'M
der way.
The invaders have been identified
as the ordinary, but also, the exceed
ingly irritating species of mosquito,
close relatives of the malaria bearing
type, the breakbone fever sort and of
other varieties of this winged pest.
The mobilizing grounds, in other
words, the breeding places of the en-
emy-swamps, marshes, stagnant
waters, whether in pools or streams,
or in small quantities in discarded tin
cans-are being sought out and duly
treated, oiled in some cases, drained
in others, stocked with the minnows
that thrive upon the mosquito larvae
in others, or gotten rid of, in the case
of the disreputable tin can.
Speaking of the anti-mosquito war;
fare, DR.. R. H. Riley, Director of the
State Department of Health, said:
every often when members of the De-
partment are asked to locate the
sources of the early visitation of mos
quitoes at resorts or summer camping
grounds, they come back with the re-
port, found lot of empty tin cans,
not properly disposed of, partly full
of water, loaded with mosquito lar
vae'
"These mosquitoes are literally
clouds of witnesses against the care
less camper or householder and there
is no doubt but that volunteer action
is needed as much as community in
terest and cooperation in our warfare
against mosquitoes. We depend upon
community action for mass move
ments-draining swamps, oiling of
streams, screening houses and other
measures of that sort. But the public
spirited volunteer can be of tremend-
Gus help by simply clearing out all
possible breeding places on his own
premises or his own picnic or camp
ing grounds.
under their own power, mosquitoes
are said to be able to fly about half a
mile from their breeding places, but
the distances they are carried by the
wind, by autos, boats, trains, and by
other means of transportation, are
practically Unreasonable. The best
way to get rid of them is to get rid of
their breeding places. Every tin can
left by the roadside or thrown on the
refuse heap after the picnic meal, is
a potential breeding place. If we could
get every hiker, every householder,
every summer cottager, every boy and
girl scout, every camper, to make
proper disposition of their discarded,
empty, tin cans and other containers,
we would all be saved much discom-
fort"

MT. LAKE PARK.
TEAM WORK.

Nothing, of course, can be accom-
plished without individual effort. But
| after all it is team work that brings
best results. The individual has only
one brain and two hands and there are
only twenty-four hours in a day. Part
of that must be spent in rest. But if
each citizen of the park would resolve
himself or herself into a committee of
one to see that the visitors of the
coming season are entertained as well
as our resources will permit, then the
one brain and the two hands and the
number of hours that can be devoted
to work, will be multiplied in proper
ton to the number of committees
functioning.
Superintendent Baker, of course, is
the responsible head and upon him
will be visited the praise or blame for
the success or failure of the season.
But, l wonder, if we have considered
the fact that one can't do it all, how
ever efficient he may be? Every res
ident, whether here permanently or
just for the summer, is interested in
making each season just a little bit
better than the preceding one. One
of the ways of accomplishing that re-
suit is to get behind the Superinten-
dent and push.
The Park looks better than it has
looked for a good many years. The
trimming of the trees along the
boardwalk has helped. Frightening up
the buildings at the head of the lake,
fixing up the surroundings at Crystal
Spring, lining up the walks around
the Auditorium, cutting the grass on
the vacant lots-all these things add
to the beauty of our surroundings.
We have enough confidence to be-
lieve that other things will be done.
Mountain Lake Park will come into
her own.

Child Injured in Auto Accident
Glenn Alexander, 7-year-old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Lloyd Alexander, was
struck Saturday evening on Main
street by car driven by Mr.. Imam,
of Oakland. The lad was thrown over
by the car and dragged approximately
eighty feet along the highway and
suffered very serious and painful in
juries. His right thigh was fractured
and he also suffered a fracture of the
skull and received a number of con-
tusions about the face and body. The
child was Immediately taken to the
Western Maryland Hospital at Cum
berland where he is being treated.
Latest reports from his bedside are to
the effect that he is resting as COM
fortably as could be expected but is
yet in serious condition.
The accident was unavoidable, as
the boy did not see the approaching
car driven by Mr.. Imam and stepped
from a truck directly in front of it.
The parents of the child have the
sympathy of all in the community and
it is hoped that the boy will have a
speedy recovery.
