NOISE WELCOMES ARRIVAL
OF new YEAR IN OAKLAND
POstOffice Closes But Banks and
Business Establishments Re-
main Open for Business

The usual noisy greeting welcomed
the New Year at midnight Monday
with bells, whistles and the firing of
guns adding to the din, with few
Happy New Years" thrown in for
good measure. The ovation was short
lived, however, as it subsidized almost
as suddenly as it started.
The occasion was observed by few
with watch night parties in homes
but no general or public festivity was
arranged. There was a somewhat
restricted observance of the day of
Tuesday, when the postoffice and one
or two stores were closed, but the
banks and other business establish
ments remained open for business.
Many of the business establish
ments took advantage of the holiday
to get the annual inventories under
way while others retained the old ira
dition of starting the new year right
by operating all day.
One of the noticeable features of
the arrival of the new year is the fact
that 1928 automobile license plates
disappeared from the streets and in
their place the new 1929 plates APP
peared. No notice of an extension Of
time has been received here and al
though officers are non-committal as
to whether arrests would be made, it
is not considered likely that any at
tempt will be made to enforce the law
for few days.
Approximately $4,000 Maryland
motorists, mostly Baltimoreans, were
without their 1929 automobile license
plates on Monday night. The office
of the Commissioner of motor vehic-
les was beseiged by the largest crowd
in it's history.

Wins Cup for Biggest Fish

William Glotfelty, Oakland, fisher
man deluxe, is in receipt of a silver
loving cup, presented to him by the
Baltimore Sun for landing the largest
brook trout in the State of Maryland
during 1928.
Mr.. Glotfelty's catch weighed three
pounds, nine and one-half ounces and
was 1912 inches long. The trout was
caught in Deep Greek Lake.
Loving cups similar to the one re-
ceived are given away each year,
Mr.. Glotfelty said. A much larger cup
is given if the same person wins three
years in succession, and this now
seems to be the aim of the Garrett
county prize winner.

MANY Ill With Influenza.

Influenza has been credited with
putting number of local people
"down for the count" during the past
week or two, and doctors have been
working over time in an effort to
bring the many afflicted ones back to
normal. Although the epidemic is not
as serious as that of about ten years
ago, it is still dangerous and physi-
clans are warning against getting up
too soon.
Many who thought they were clear
of the disease veutnred from their
beds and as a result suffered re-
lapses and a second attack in almost
every case has proven to be of more
serious nature than the first. People
are advised to be extremely careful
when they feel an attack coming on.
