SCHOOL TAX RAISED
| BY new ENGLANDERS
Additional 10 Mills Assessed by
Voters For Support Of
Education

New England, N. D., June 10.-To
protest against taxes is proverbial.
However, in this year of protest. 1882,
voters of New England Special school
district voted an additional 10 mills
tax against themselves as proof they
are willing to sacrifice for schools for
their children.
! There were 200 votes cast at the
election which would of itself determ-
inc whether or not high school should
be maintained at New England. for at :
ter levying the legal limit required by
law the additional levy has been re-
, quired for high school purposs for
several years. The voters declared
themselves in favor of increasing the
levy $500. However, this amount will
not be necessary as the expenses at
the local school will be cut practically
$4,000 through action of the local
, school board in cutting out some de-
partments and hiring fewer number
of teachers.
Not all voted on the proposition but
121 cast votes in favor of the increased
levy while 66 voted no."
Mrs. Harvey j. Miller and Charles
Schumacher were reelected members
of the board of education for terms OF
three years and Henry Melaas was re-
elected for a one-year term.
Last year there were but II mo
votes on the increased levy for high
school purposes, but there were only
&C votes cast at the election as COM
pared with 200 cast Tuesday.
Mrs. Miller received los votes,
Charles Schumacher, SO; F. A. Schatz,
II; c. j. Herstein, 60; and Henry
MelaaS lat votes.

"All.BRAN LIVES '
UP TO REPUTATION"
Her Constipation Overcome
by This Delicious Cereal

II you are troubled with constipa-
ton, read Miss Bundy's enthusiastic
letter:
IT would like to congratulate the
one who discovered ALL-BRAN. It
really does live up to its reputation
when it is said to relieve consti-
patton
IT used to feel poor all the time
just down and out and after
reading an advertisement in q mag
azine about ALL-BRAN / got box.
1t has evermore helped me, and
it is not hard at all to eat" Miss
Mary Bundy, Bennettsville, S. G.
Laboratory tests show ALL-BRAN
brings two things needed to correct
common constipation: "Bulk" to ex-
ercise the intestines; Vitamin B to
help tone the intestinal tract. ALL
BRAN also furnishes iron for the
blood.
The sbulk" in ALL-BRAN is much
like that Of lettuce. Within the
body, it forms soft mass. Gently,
it clears the intestines Of wastes.
How much safer than taking pills
and drugs-so often harmful. ALL
BRAN is not habit-forming. Two
tablespoonful daily will overcome
most types of constipation. If your
intestinal trouble Is not relieved
this way, see your doctor.

G. 0.P. COMMITTEE
HEARS FIGHTS FOR
J CONVENTION SEATS
Prohibition Bogey Turks ir
Background as Time For
~ T.. Meeting Nears

Chicago, June 1O.-(AP)-The Re-
publican National committee settled
down to hear it's contesting delega-
tons Friday in an atmosphere
charged with potentialities for a
prohibition rumpus later on.
While delegations from Louisiana,
Georgia, Mississippi and South Car
DINA mustered. their arguments be-
fore the national committee, party
leaders were keenly alive to the
rapid sweep of prohibition develop
ments and the openly expressed be-
liefs of numerous incoming dele
gates that the party platform should
at least carry resubmission plank.
No definite indication came as to
how far the leaders would attempt
to 60. Postmaster General Brown,
one of the closest Of the presidents
political advisers, arrived Thursday
but he said the stand the party would
take on prohibition was up to the
convention itself and no one would
know what the plank would contain
until it came from the resolutions
committee.
Among early arrivals for the poll
teal battles was DR.. Edwin C. Din
widdlie, secretary of the National
Prohibition Board of Strategy, and
other dry organization leaders. They
refused, however, to discuss any
plans.
Two other questions-who will be
the next chairman of the national
committee? and will Curtis be re-
nominated ?-also were heard fire.
quently in the discussion that ran
about the flag draped lobby of the
Congress hotel. James r. Garfield
OF Ohio, who has been selected to
head the resolutions committee, was
mentioned as a possible successor for
Fees.
The second question required fire.
quently but inevitably met a varia-
ton of one of Herbert Hoover's 1928
preconvention campaign posters
who but Curtis? The name of Char
les G. Dawes was mentioned but it
was not believed he would accept a
story that there was an undercover
movement on foot to draft Calvin
Coolidge for the place drew replies
from persons in a position to know
that it would be preposterous to ask
a man who had served as president
to take the second place on the ticket.

An Interesting Fact
BACK OF THE BEGINNING
Avalon

On the 18th day of April, 1882,
three hundred years ago, George Cal
vert died, at the comparatively young
age of 81 years, while the charter for
his new colony of Maryland was be-
ing slowly put through the legal hop
per.
His death, prior to the settlement of
Maryland, is a source Of regret, when
we consider his disappointing ex-
perience in his attempt to develop
Avalon (now Nova Scotia) in New
foundland, for which he had obtained
charter in 1923.
Up to 1925, when he disqualified
himself for public office by announcing
his conversion to the Catholic faith,
George Calvert desired the colonial
ton of America simply as a repre-
sentative of the crown and state. Sub
sequently, and after the King had con-
ferred on him the title of Baron Of
Baltimore, in County Longford, Ire
land, Calvert devoted his attention al
most entirely to the New World.
He had sent two emissaries to New

States now as always, is willing to
meet the other powers half way in the
matter of disarmament. We are not
going to Chinafy ourselves, however,
and by following pacifist advice, rem
der ourselves helpless as an example
to a war-filled world which would not
respect any such example and would
only use it to coerce US in any way
possible. Pacifsts cry for disarma-
ment to bring peace and then advo-
cate the dangerous policy of entering
into a commercial boycott of Japan,
step we'll calculated to plunge US
into war. Sometimes we are led to
believe that politically the interna-
tional pacifsts in the United States
have not yet advanced beyond the
dollcart stage.

HOW TO FAIL IN BUSINESS

An exchange publishes the follow
ing set of directions on how to fail in
business:
"a trade publication points out that
according to Bradstreet's report for
1880, 95 per cent of all business fall
ures were non-advertisers. One does
not hesitate a minute about insuring
his home or place of business, but
how about the business itself? The
successful business man is the one
who goes after business; the failure
is the one who sits around and waits
for business to come to him."
The progressive business man is an
advertiser, and the size of the town
has nothing to do with it. In a
Nebraska town is business man who
does a business of 100000 in town
of 5000 population. His success has
been phenomenal. He says that there
is no secret about the reason for forg-
ing ahead. Advertising has done the
trick. Here is what he says: II have
no sympathy for the merchant who
sleeps between advertised blankets on
bed springs that are nationally adver-
tised, sleeps in advertised pajamas,
who rides to work in an advertised car
and who, when he gets to work, re-
fuses to advertise. He ought to go
broke and he probably will. If were
to start business again would invest
five per cent of my gross sales in adj
vertising. It pays"

IN DAYS OF OLD
FORTY YEARS AGO

The foundation work for a new
dwelling on Oak street, to be occu-
pied when completed by the family OF
Henry Eggers, was completed.
Silas E. Shirer purchased lot on
Alder street and was preparing to
erect a dwelling thereon.
Pulp wood was being shipped from
Oakland by the carload to paper mills
at Luke.
Charles w. Mason closed his eating
house, which he had operated in the
Legge building on Railroad street for
some time.
The Oakland public schools, with
others in the county, were ordered
to be closed on March 16 by the Gar
rett County Board of Education. E
A. Browning announced that he would
open a select school in town following
the closing of the public school. AT
Swanton the school had been previ-
ously closed because of non-attend-
ance of the pupils.
TWENTY YEARS AGO
A slight fire on the third floor of the
Lauer home on Second street was ex-
tinguished with pail of water. In
the Whetsell bakery on First street,
occupied by Holmes Browning, fire
was discovered and did considerable
damage.
Democratic voters of Oakland in
convention assembled named the fol-
lowing municipal ticket: For mayor,
G. Semmes, Hamill, Jr.; for Council
men, Harry Rasche, D. E. Offutt, Jr.,
and DR.. B. Frank Selby. Mr.. Rasche
declined the nomination.
A report of the financial condition
of Oakland showed receipts for the
year of $9,638.33 and disbursements
of $8,592.39. The water system was
valued at $4,000, and the fire hose,
reels, etc., at $3.50.
Oakland high school building was
equipped with gas lights, enabling
the students to hold some of their
meetings during the evenings after
the dismissal of the classes.
Estimated amounts necessary to
maintaining the high schools of the
county were submitted by the Board
of Education to the County Commits
sioners as follows: Oakland high,
$4,000; Friendsville, $1,s27.5O; Kitz-
miller, $2,115; Grantsville, $1,702.50.

DEFENSE SENTIMENT
GROWS

The celebration of the bicentennial
of the birth of George Washington is
serving once more to call the atten-
ton of the people of the United
States to the advice of the first Pres
ident against entangling alliances and
in favor of preparation for national
defense. Vice-President Curtis made
this clear at the dedication of the Ad-
ministration School Building at Phila-
delphia few days ago when he said
"Today when we read of the condi-
tions in the Far East we recall that
history tells US of the first formal
document of it's kind in the worlds
history-it was the first neutrality
proclamation; it was issued by George
Washington.
"As Washington advised, it was
never more necessary than now that
the country be kept in state Of COM
plete national defense. 1t would be
wonderful if the strong nations OF
the earth would agree upon plan OF
disarmament which would reduce their
armies and navies to the smallest
strength needed for defense, but the
fear of offense keeps them from do
ing SO.
"Unless all will disarm, none will.
So we must keep both our army and
navy strong enough for complete ma
tional defense. So, too, must we keep
up the strength of that new branch
of the common defense, the air force.
"We hope for, have done, and are
doing everything possible to bring
about world peace, but it must be
peace with honor; peace not involving
us in the political quarrels of other
nations. Washington's advice of mo
entangling alliances might almost
have been with present-day condi-
lions in mind.
"Now, as then, we should chart and
follow our own course, not that OF any
other nation. Now, as then, should
we be indignant at every attempt OF a
foreign power to establish an infiu-
ence in our councils.
"Today there are in our midst mer
of alien thought and race who would
sow the seeds of discord and disunion
among US; who would overthrow our
cherished ideals and traditions. We
must rid our beloved country of all
such, and of all alien criminals, and of
all alien racketeers. The sooner such
aliens are deported the better it will
be for ALL"
The words of the Vice-President are
we'll worth repeating. The American
people are more and more each day
becoming alive to the dangers which
confront us. The action of Japan in
Manchuria and Shanghi, thrusting
aside all international agreements and
treating the League of Nations as a
schoolboy organization has opened
our eyes to the dangers of trusting
entirely to international agreements
for the avoidance of war. The United

foundland, who, possibly from an ul-
terror motive, reported back to their
chief that the land was an earthly
paradise; that "the wild beasts were
kind, the fruits and flowers ranged
from the vegetation of the temperate
zone to tropical luxuriance."
Lord Baltimore found it expedient
to visit Avalon on several occasions.
In 1928 he brought with him his wife
and several of his children, together
with forty settlers. Prior to this visit
he had caused to be erected a resi-
dence in Avalon said to have cost be-
tween 100000 and .$15O,OO0, the
handsomest home in English North
America, signifying his intention to
settle there permanently.
But serious trouble with the French
began on this visit. In this connec-
ton it is interesting to note that he
sent against his enemies, on at least
one occasion, the Ark and the Dove
the same two vessels that carried his
colonists to Maryland at later date
The winter of 1628-1629 brought to
Avalon disease and death and bitter
disappointment to Lord Baltimore
Of this experience he writes that ne
had been deceived and that from the
middle of October to the middle OF
MAY "both land and sea so frozen
for the greater part of the TYNE, as
they are not penetrable, no plant
or vegetable thing appearing out OF
the earth until about the middle OF
May"
But this sad and disappointing ex-
perience did not dampen his spirits
as we find him expressing to the King
his desire to make other efforts in the
New World under warmer skies.
After writing that II am determ'
ined to commit this place (Avalon)
to fishermen who are able to encoun.
ter storms and hard weather." he re-
quested the King to grant him a tract
of land in Virginia. Ito be continued
