HEARING BEFORE PUBLIC

The application of the Ches-
apeake Gas Company to dis
tribute natural gas to farmers
in Cecil and Hartford counties
who sold rights of way to the
Maryland Gas Transmission
Co. to carry it's pipe line
across their property, was
heard before the Public Ser

rights of way to the Maryland
Gas Transmission Co., that
this Company had the right at
that time to deliver gas, for in
the majority of their con-
tracts this constituted a part
of he consideration.

RISING SUN SCHOOL NEWS.

Our school supper met with
its usual success. Total re-
ceipts for supper are $141.25.
OF this amount approximately
$500 will be cleared. This
will be divided equally between
the High and Elementary
school. We wish to thank the
patrons and merchants who do
mated food, the ladies of the
community who helped in serv-
ing, and the many patrons and
friends who attended the sup
per. The Home Economics De-
partment of the High School
deserves much credit for its
part in making our annual
supper a great success.
Our Athletic Association an
nual Crowell Publishing Co.
magazine campaign will take
place during the week Of Octo-
Der 3rd. Please hold your re-
newals to the American, Col
lier's, Woman's Home Compan-
ion, etc., for us. Our statesmen
will call on you during the
week of October third.
Our fall athletic season was
opened on Friday afternoon,
when Elkton High School Wis
tied our school. Our girls field
ball team, composed of eight
girls who were members of the
reserve team last year, and
three of last years varsity
team, defeated the Elkton girls
by a score of 1872. The passing
oof our team was very accurate
and the opening game looks
like another big year for the
Rising Sun girls.
The boys soccer team, after
playing even up with Eikton
during the first half of the
game, were outclassed in the
second half and lost their open
ing game by a score of 60.
Our boys have been very much
handicapped by the lack of a
field for practice, but expect to
give a good account of them
selves in their future games.
At an assembly period last
week, the High School athlet-
ic association organized with
the following officers: Presi-
dent, Elwood Monger; sec.-
treas, Leila Long.
Mr.. Zimmerman attended a
meeting of the principals of
Cecil county held at Elkton last
Thursday afternoon. The pro-
gram of this meeting was in
charge of Mr.. Ruhl and Mr..
Fontaine, Supervisor of Eas-
tern Shore High Schools. Cues
lions such as our new high
school report cards, school pub
licity, physical education,
school budgets and the impor-
lance of educating boys and
girls for citizenship under the
changed economic conditions
were considered. The meeting
was very informal and much
good was derived from it.
We will be glad to receive
current magazines of value for
school use monthly. These
monthly donations have been
very helpful in the past and we
hope they will continue. If you
have any magazine you would
like to give to us monthly or

reading it, kindly inform Mr..

LEAGUE COMES
FIRST IN OATH

GENEVA. Jan. 7 CU.S0-League
Of Nations officials, who are forced
to subscribe to the oath Of loyalty,
owe their duty and obligations
to the League rather than to
their native country.
This official Interpretation Of
the League oath was given to-
day by Yotaro Sugimura, jap
anese acknowledgement Of
the League. Similar views are
expressed by Arthur Sweetser,
American acting director Of the
information section, and DR.. Ben
jamin Gerig, another American
in the information section.
SweetSer declared:
"The oath cuts officials loose
from obligations toward sany
country, since the duties Of
League officials are purely in
ternatiOnal, not national"
Although the League has been
operating for more than 10 years
without requiring officials to take
q pledge of allegiance, Undersec-
retary Sugimura declared that the
oath now imposed "affirms form
ally that the duties and obliga.
tions Of secretariat officials are
international"
