Representative of fourteen job
printing plants in Allegany and Gar
rett counties met Friday night at the

ers who have been asked to cooperate
with the NRA in the establishment of
uniform rules of fair competition and
practice, with view to carrying out
the hour, wage, and employment pro-
visions of the code and the printers of
these two counties decided to enter
heartily into the plan which may be
adopted by the NRA.

were represented at the meeting
formed an association known as the
Manufacturing Printers Association
of Allegany and Garrett Counties:

TONSIL CLINICS MAY BE
ARRANGED FOR CHILDREN
Plans Made for Those Unable to
Pay at Meeting Last Friday

Plans for three clinics for removal
of tonsils of children in urgent need
of the operation but unable to pay,
were made at a meeting of the County
Commissioners, doctors and health
workers of the county last Friday.
The meeting was called at the re-
quest of the board Of county commits
sioners which is also the county health
board, and was held in the commits
sioners' office. Those present at the
meeting were George D. Browning,
James A. Fitzwater, George W. Har-
vey, commissioners; Drs. N. l. Broad
water, M. C. limbaugh, E. l. Baum
gartner, A. J. Mason, C. Nedrow, A.
X. Fiddler, and Eugene C. Peck; Miss
Charlotte Wilcox, Miss Ethel Miller,
Mrs. E. 2. Tower, Mrs. Joseph F.
Fahey, and Mrs. Samuel Cole.
1t was stated that there are 40 or
more children in the county who need
an operation on their tonsils, but
could not afford to pay for the opera
ton. After considerable discussion it
was decided to hold three clinics for
the removal of childrens' tonsils, if
arrangements could be satisfactorily
completed. One of these is to be held
at DR.. Fiddler's office in Kitzmiller.
The other two will be in the Grand
Jury room of the court house. 1t is
planned to have a skilled throat sur
geon to operate at the clinics, the
nursing care to be in charge of Miss
Nell Browning.
It is hoped at each clinic to have
children from one area of the county
cared for so that the family physi-
clans of that area may devote some
time that day and the following to
their care. Every child who is to be
operated upon at one of these clinics
must be certified by the family doc
tor to be in urgent need of tonsil
operation; be recommended to the
clinic by the family doctor with a
statement as to how much the doctor
thinks the patient should pay for the
operation, or if the County Commits
sioners should bear the whole expense.
Arrangements for admission of the
children to these clinics may be made
through the County Health depart
ment, and are subject to approval of
the County Commissioners.

September % Is Date Chosen for
Knights of Pythias Picnic

The fourteenth annual Knights of
Pythias picnic, scheduled for Labor
Day, was postponed until Saturday,
September %, it was announced last
night by Arthur Lawton, manager.
The picnic was called off on Monday
when weather conditions were such
that it was impossible to hold the af-
fair. 1t was thought that September
16 would be the date chosen, but on
account of the music festival at Camp
Dawson on that date, the date of one
week later was chosen.
A picnic at Friendsville on Septem-
Der II prevented an earlier date being
chosen.
At a meeting of the executive COM
mittee it was decided to conduct the
program as scheduled on the 23d.
The automobile will be awarded
upon that day and the picnic will be
held in Helbig's Grove, as was the
plan earlier.

coaches of the high schools of the
county on Tuesday afternoon, in the
the local high school building, o. P.
Jones, principal of Kitzmiller high,
was reelected president of the Gar

have a two-game schedule this year

fieldball. Last year the three north
ern schools competed, the winner play

STYLE CHATS
With ALMA ARCHER

What with the wool market
bounding into Jupiter, we II prob
ably have to be satisfied this fall
with a taWdry little costume
stitched up in platinum-or maybe
woods from ordinary American
ranches. Most American sheep are
satisfied to be eaten and don t care
whether or not they ever score in a
new Patou or Schiaparelli, as wom-
en- ali want their truck from i'm
ported frocks.
You remember that the original
home Of the Merino sheep is Spain,
where there are two distinct types,
stationary and migratory-the lat
ter from which the Australian
flocks descend. For ages, the sheep
were closely guarded. and the eX-
portation was a death penalty. In
1923. Sweden imported a few, with
no luck. Fifty years later, France
imported a flock, and under gov
eminent auspices the Rombouillet
breed was developed In 1865, Ger
many imported a flock, resulting in
the celebrated SaXony bree
George III instigated the unsuc-
cessful venture of importing NIer-
mos into England in 1891. In Aus
tralia and the Cape, the Merino
has achieved its greatest success as
the greatest care is taken in the
breeding of the sheep. They re
probably fed on milk-toast or jun
ket pudding as woods from the
Merino sheep of Victoria, Australia

ROLPH VETOES
PAIR Of BILLS

SACRAMENTO, June is tU.Rj-
Two major bills, which would have
provided more strict control of pub
licly-owned automobiles and turned
over to the state the task OF erect
ing highway signs, today carried
Governor Rolph's veto.
The first measure. the so-called
anti-joy riding bill. would have sub
iected state employees to loss OF
their positions for using state-oWn-
ed cars for purposes other than Oh
fetal business.
In explaining his veto the COVER
nor claimed the measure 'repeals
by implication" certain sections OF
the civil service act which permits
an employee a full hearing in the
event be is charged with any in
fraction of rules.
The governor also charged the
bill was ambiguous in the deflnl-
ton Of publicly owned motor We
hicles and apparently would have
applied TO cities, counties, districts
or other public agencies in a mat
ter which is so peculiarly a local
affair"
THE road sign bill would have
authorized the division OF highways
to erect all traffic control and dl-
fectional signs, a task now in the
hands of two automobile clubs.
IF l was asked" the governor
said in his veto message, ito give
a reason for signing this bill, l
would be at a loss to explain why
work. which has always been per-
formed so adequately and etfl'
GENTLY in the past at no state eX-
pense. should be transferred to the
state at the expense Of the state.
The bill apparently has as its
purpose the deprivation Of the right
of the automobile clubs to con-
tinue this work because of the small
concession granted them OF includ-
ing their insignia upon the signs
posted. The signing of this bill
would serve no useful purpose.

NAVY WARNED
BY CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, June Is. UP)-
Unless the navy department in
creases the efficiency of its air
corps before next January, a Joint
congressional committee mas warn
co, congress may take the corps
from the navy department.
In a supplemental report ON in
designations of the Akron dirigible
the committee charged that
the navy departments inquiry into
the fatal crash was not thorough
enough.
The congressional Investigators
said this was evidenced by the fact
that the Akron carried no life pre-
servers while the Navy inquiry said
the airship was fully and prop
erly manned and equipped in ma
terial readiness for flight
The committee report charged
also that the Akron should have had
better trained men aboard during
her final flight and said that such
experienced men were available.
If the navy does not improve its
air corps and obtain experienced
personnel to properly manage the
experimental and highly special
lied airship," concluded the report,
the next session of congress may
enact legislation severing the air
corps from other naval opera
tons"
