Colonel Bell Again Busy

Due to the activities of candidates
of the coming civic political campaign,
Colonel Bell has become extremely
busy with his camera in recent days
and is securing the streets of Oak
land in search of almost anything.
His only worthwhile picture of the
week, however, was that of Monk
Stemple, whom he caught making a
stump campaign speech in the seven
teenth ward of the sixth precinct of
District No. IA. He advocates lower
ing the sidewalks and giving plumbers
more leisure while on duty.

The Value of Appointments
Some local Democrats have been
wondering concerning the following:
It took President Hoover just eight
hours to appoint Charles Evans
Hughes Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court, the highest and most response
BILE position in the nation with the
exception of that of President. Gov
ernor Richie of Maryland has been
several months in making the appoint
ment of a member of the Garrett
County School Board and he hasn't
completed the, job yet.
According to the Importance of the
two positions, how long, therefore,
would it have taken Governor Richie
to make the appointment of Chief
Justice had he been nominated and
elected President?
The answer is something that would
probably cause the wonderment of
ones grandchildren children, for it
would be that long at least. q.
Bob Sheckles, member of the Dem
ocratic County Committee and an as
pirant for appointment as men,
Der Of the Garrett County School
Board, has expressed his belief that
the appointment to fill the vacancy
has gone by default and was awarded
to Kent county.
