"Mrs. Consumer and Her. Buying
Standards" will be the topic for con-
sideration in Homemakers' Clubs
throughout the county during the
coming year, according to Miss Mar
garet X. Burtis, home demonstration
agent.
The objective of the program is to
find. how to maintain good standards
on limited income through better
buying practices and better use of
home products.
Since it is known that women do
$3.50 of all reatil purchasing it is nee
essary that each housewife get the
best value possible out Of every dollar
spent.
The January meetings will include
Management of Clothing Expendi-

"Next to food, clothing is one Of
the largest items in the family's ex-

one that requires cash. Buying the
right thing at the right time and at
the right price, means 10 buy intel

E. S. EVANS LARGE BARN
is CONSUMED BY FLAMES
Seventy Head of Cattle Driven
To Safety, But Loss Is Heavy

The large stock barn on the E. S.
Evans farm, two miles north of Oak
land, on Route 81, and all its contents
were consumed by fire of undeter-
mined origin on Tuesday afternoon,
about one O'Clock, entailing loss of
between eight thousand and ten thous-
and dollars, partially covered by in
surance.
The Oakland Fire Department was
called and reached the scene of the
blaze about ten minutes after the
alarm had been turned in, but the
building was then mass of flames.
Approximately seventy tons of oats
straw and clover hay stored in the
barn added to the heat, which was in
tense.
About seventy head of dairy cattle
which were in and about the barn
were saved, and an electrical milk
ing equipment in the stabling section
of the building was also saved by the
firemen and workmen about the farm
after the heat in the upper part of
the structure had subsidized to some
extent.
The lower or stable portion of the
building was constructed of steel and
cement and had a large number of
metal stanchions, which had been
erected less than two years ago at a
cost of approximately $4,000.
There was very little reserve water
supply on the farm and the streams
from the hose of the fire company
were only effective in preventing the
spread of the flames to other nearby
buildings.
The barn was one of the most mod
ern in this community and was quite
substantially built.
Russell Slower occupies the dwelling
on the farm and people who discov-
cred the fire thought it had been
caused by defective wiring. The blaze
had it's inception in the southeast cor
ner of the building adjacent to the
roof.
Called To MeHenry
The local firemen were called to
McHenry on Saturday about noon
when a stack of hay, located in a
field near the church of that village
was discovered to be burning and it
was feared that the flames would be
communicated to the church. Aside
from burning the hay on other DAM
age resulted, however.

COBLENTZ TO BE ASKED BY
HIS PARTY TO QUIT SENATE
Formal Step Planned For Tues
day If Frederick COuntian Fails
To Accede To Demands
COMMITTEES ANNOUNCED

Annapolis, Jan. IA resolu-
ton calling on Senator Emory L.
Coblentz to resign as Frederick
county's representative in the
State Senate is being prepared
for presentation when the Gen.
eral Assembly reconvenes next
week, it was learned today.
Meanwhile, it is understood,
Democratic leaders and Senate
colleagues will wait on the Freder-
lex county Senator and advise him to
submit his resignation to avoid the
necessity of taking formal action
against him on the floor.
Senator Coblentz was convicted last
summer by the Circuit Court of Ale
gany county on charges of accepting
deposits in a branch of the defunct
Central Trust Company of Frederick,
of which he was president, knowing
the institution to be insolvent. Other
indictments are pending against him
in connection with the banking chains
failure in Howard, Carroll and Fred
erick counties.
Appeal Is Pending
An appeal from the Allegany county
courts conviction, which was on one
of several indictments in Howard
county, now is before the Court of
Appeals.
Considerable pressure has been
brought to bear on the Senators in the
Western Maryland and Central Mary
land section adjacent to Frederick
county to force Senator Coblentz's
withdrawal from the Senate, it is un-
derstood, and the result of this was
the decision to make a demand for
his resignation by resolution.
1t is reported that suggestions al
ready have been made to the Fred
erick county representative that he at
least absent himself from sessions of
the General Assembly until the Court
of Appeals decides on the Allegany
courts conviction.
Present At Sessions
Senator Coblentz has attended the
three meetings held thus far by the.
Legislature but, at his own request,
was relieved of the craftsmanship of
two committees which he held in the
1881 session. During the last session
he was head of the Education Commit

REDUCTION MAY BE MADE
HERE IN RATES FOR GAS
May Mean a Saving of IL Per-
cent to Consumers, is Estimate

That the Cumberland and Allegheny
Gas company would probably make a
voluntary reduction in the gas rates
in this vicinity, was announced by s.
H. Jackson, local manager. He was
unable to give the exact figures but
estimated that it would mean a saw
ing of approximately IL percent to
people of Oakland and surrounding
towns.
The gas rate was. voluntarily re-
duced in the Cumberland area, which
will mean a savings annually of ap-
proximately $4,000 there. A reduc-
ton at this time will not only afford
relief through the winter months to
the small consumer but will also en-
able the users of gas for house-heat-
ing purposes to continue this con-
venience at appreciably reduced and
lowered prices. -.... ......
While there has been no official
notification, Mr.. jackson is of the
opinion that the following rates will
be effective this. month and the
months to follow: 80 cents per thous-
and for the first two thousand cubic
feet used per month; 10 cents per
thousand for the next two thousand
cubic feet used per month; and go
cents per thousand for all over, four
thousand cubic feet used per month
The present rates are 80 cents per
thousand for the first five; 10 cents
per thousand for the next fiye;. and
so cents per thousand for all over ten
thousand.

AUTO WRECK NEAR FlNZEL
KILLS TWO; INJURIES TWO
Cumberland Boy and Girl Die of
Broken NeckS-TwO Others In
Machine Cut and Bruised
SECOND MISHAP ON ROAD

Pinioned under a small roadster
which plunged from the new Finzel
raod about eight or ten miles east of
Grantsville, at point near where the
highway crosses into the State OF
Pennsylvania after leaving Garrett
county, Miss Alleda Wilson, 10, and
Victor C. Lucas, IS, both of Cumber-
land, were instantly killed shortly af-
ter 9 o'clock Saturday night. Two
other occupants of the car were in
jured, neither seriously.
Lucas was driving the car, with
Miss Wilson beside him, police were
told, when he apparently lost control
as the machine rounded a curve. The
auto struck a tree and turned over
several times before the gasoline tank
exploded, igniting the machine.
Miss Gretchen Lucas, sister of the
mishap victime, and Garfield Marsh
%, of Westernport, were riding in the
rumble seat Marsh succeeded in ex-
Treating himself and removed his
three companions from the wreckagr
before the flames reached them. The
automobile was destroyed by the fire.
Passing motorists took the victims
to the Miners Hospital, Frostburg,
where they were attended by DR. A. r.
Walker. Miss Wilson and Lucas suf-
fered broken necks and were badly
crushed. DR.. Walker pronounced them
dead at the hospital. Marsh suffered
minor cuts and bruises and was able
to leave the hospital. Miss Lucas,
who suffered severe bruises and cuts
about the head and body, remained in
the hospital. Her condition is not re-
garded as serious.
The car, travelling toward Meyers
dale, Pa, left the road about 200 feet
from the Maryland line, in Somerset
county, Pa. The new Finzel road, COM
pleted in recent months, connects with
the National Highway at the top of
Little Savage Mountain.
John Rembold, of Somerset county,
Pa, was killed last November, and his
son was badly injured, when their car
left the road and crashed into the
same tree that was struck by the car
operated by Lucas. Mr.. Rembold was
a son of Joseph Rembold, of this coun-
ty.
Officer George J. Miller, of the State
Police, assisted Pennsylvania State
Police in investigating the accident.
Both Miss Wilson and young Lu-
cas- were highly respected in Cum
berland. Their funerals took place on
Tuesday afternoon. ,s...~ ..
The scene of the fatal mishap was
visited Sunday by hundreds of motor
lists. From the marks left on the tree
into which the car plunged, it is be-
lieved the machine sideswiped the
trunk and then turned over several
times. The bark of the tree is torn
off about five feet from the ground.
