they were passing through on a tour
of the Tableland Area. A large crowd
of citizens had gathered at the Ma
tional Hotel and group of business
men of the town drove to Keyser's
Ridge to meet them and to escort
them into Grantsville. When they
arrived the children who had part
in the maple sugar pageant at Som

sugar song. Harvey Gortner, mayor
of the town, made an address of well
come, which was responded to by DR..
Lenhart, of the University of Pitts
burgh, and by Mr.. Dunn, president of
the Council.
The pageant group sang again and
moved through the crowd, presenting
maple sugar cakes to members of the
touring party, while the school sang
two songs. The cakes Of sugar were
made by J. B. Miller, who donated a
quantity of special cream maple sugar
which was packed in basket attrac-
lively decorated with the combined
colors of Maryland and Pittsburgh,
and was presented to the officials of
the Council by Betty Beachy, who was
Queen Maple Heart crowned at the
pageant last September. After time
spent in greetings, the crowd drove
