NEW COURSE ESTABLISH
ED AT TOME

Gordon S. Patton, Supervisor
of the Town Schools of the JAG
oh Tome Institute, at Port De-
post, announces that the Town
Schools will offer a new course
next year which will include
actual experience in manual
fields. The program will re-
quire, according to the an
nouncement of Mr.. Patton,
nine scholastic units two of
which must be gained in Eng
lish and one in algebra. Upon
graduation the student will re-
ceive a certificate instead of a
diploma.
The schedule for the new ar
rangement is formed so that
the morning will be devoted to
scholastic instruction in the
classroom, while the afternoon
will be spent in apprentice
work under the care and super
vision OF an electrician, eng1-
neer, carpenter, plumber or
some other experienced work
man, depending upon the in
clination of the student.
Mr.. Patton points out that
such a course of training, al
though progressive and prac-
tical in nature, is in perfect ac-
cordance with the desire of
Jacob Tome, the founder of the
institution. "It was his inten-
tion," said Mr.. Patton, ito not
only provide some source of
instruction in the arts and sci
ences, but to offer help for
skilled workers, as he planned
to equip boys and girls to meet
the many needs of handicraft
in the home"

BUT THREE HOG CHOLERA
OUTBREAKS IN MARCH

During the month of March
but three hog cholera out
breaks were reported on prem
Uses in Maryland, compared
with an average of IA for that
month during the last Is years.
March is usually the low point
of the year for hog cholera, but
the number reported for this
month is the lowest of any
month since records have been
kept. Two were classed as
backyard outbreaks, and 1 oc-
Cured on a farm where hogs
are bred and raised. However,
one of the former occurred on
premises where garbage is the
sole diet of the hogs. All were
ciassed as primary, or new out
breaks of the disease, and no
spread of any case was known.
In fact, spread of cholera in
Maryland has been kept at a
minimum for the past few
years. The cause and method
of spread of this disease has
been preached from the pulpit
of so many barnyards that the
danger is being more generally
recognized. Usually a prompt
report of swine sickness is
made, and the cause determin-
ed before the disease gets off
the premises and into other
herds in the community.
Only 8 of the % counties re-
ported outbreaks-Carroll, st.
Mary's and Montgomery.

ped.
The wharf to be 298 feet long

Sons, short time ago. So far
only the preliminary work has
been done. The work has been

SCHOOL BUS MARKERS

In view of the fact that there
have been several accidents in
which school children were
struck by passing motorists
when alighting from or board
ing school buses, Colonel E.
Austin Baughman, Commits
sioner of Motor Vehicles, has
evolved a new type of marker
to designate the school buses.
These markers are cutout let
tiers from six to twelve inches
high and set in an especially
designed framework so that
they can be mounted on the
roof just over the front visor
and also at the rear. BY hav-
ing these signs on the roof,
standing out against the hori-
zon, there is no excuse for the
motorist not to be Cognizant of
the fact the vehicle is a school
bus carrying children and for
that reason to exercise all pre-
cautions Wien passing.
These letters are made of a
particularly sturdy metal and
baked with an especial enamel
in order that they can be wash
ed frequently so that they may
be clearly seen and at the same
time not have the paint wear
off.
The buses that are used only
during the daylight hours will
have the letters painted with
diagonal black and white
stripes, so that the eye will
quickly focus upon them, while
these buses that are in use af-
ter nightfall, particularly dur
ing the winter months, will
have the letters in all white so
that the marker can be more
easily seen in the darkness.
The structure and design of
these markers was worked out
by Morton Mel. Dukehart, OF
Baltimore, in cooperation with
Colonel RagghmaaA.

THE SONG OF THE PILGRIM


Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland
Oh / want to love Jesus forever,
With all of nay heart; He's
my own.
Oh / want to be faithful and
serve Him,
And some day make Heaven
my home.
Will you promise to meet me
up yonder,
Where the streets are all
paved with pure gold.
Oh / have a glad story TO tell
you,
It's a story that never grows
old.
Some day on the wings of an
angel,
I'll be carried to realms of
delight,
Where loved ones are waiting
to great US;
In that city where cometh no
night.
Now out on life's ocean we're
sailing,
And bound for that ever
green shore.
We will anchor at last in that
harbor
Where storm clouds will
come never more.
Oh l am so happy in Jesus;
Been redeemed by the blood
of the Lamb.
He is mine now forever and
ever,
l am His, praise the Lord,
yes / am.
Oh the warfare will soon now
be over,
Every battle be fought and
be won;
Soon the Master will call us
from labor,
And say to the faithful "Well
Done"

The monthly p. T. A. meet
ing was held on Thursday eve
ming with a good crowd in at
tendance. The program at this
meeting was furnished by the
local Boy Scout Troop, most of
the boys of which are pupils at
our local school. Edgar, Will
son, Scoutmaster, presided.
Rev. Hibshman, Scoutmaster
of the troop at West Noting
ham, gave an excellent address
on the topic of "Ten Years At
ter" The boys of the troop
gave first aid demonstrations
and several boys and Mr.. Cole,
assistant Scoutmaster of the
Rising Sun Troop, furnished
music.
The Association voted to de-
vote the May meeting of the P.
T. A. to "a social gathering.
Appropriate committees were
appointed.
On Friday afternoon our
boys and girls visited Elkton
and played the Elkton volley
ball representatives of Elkton
High School. The girls played
an improved brand of volley
ball, but nevertheless went
down to defeat by a score of 8
to 5. Our baseball team play
ing excellent baseball behind
pitching of Jenkins defeated
the Elkton boys by a score of
2 to 1. The game was we'll
played by both sides, and the
result was in doubt during the
entire game. The fine fielding
of Best on third, Buck in the
outfield and the splendid pitch
ing of Jenkins, who allowed
the Elkton boys only three hits,
featured the game. There is
no game scheduled this Friday
due to the annual field day to
be held at North East. The
following Friday our boys and
girls journey to Perryville, and
close the season at home with

COOKING TO CONSERVE
FOOD VALUES
2. MEATS

The instant heat is applied
to a protein food, such as meat,
certain changes take place.
Long cooking at intense heat
toughens and hardens protein
foods. That is why we control
the heat when we roast or broil
meat or cook it in other ways.
At some time in the process
we apply enough heat to brown
the outside and bring out the
savory flavor or appetite ap-
peal"
with tender roasts with a
good covering of fat, says a.
meat specialist of the Bureau
of Home Economics, Il prefer
to brown them first very quick
ly in a hot oven, say $50 to 500
degrees F. Then l reduce the
oven to moderate, about 800 to
$50 degrees F., and finish the
cooking at this low heat. This
moderate temperature keeps
the juices in the meat, prevents
excessive shinkage, and cooks
the meat evenly. The drip
pings in the pan are nicely
Drowned, not burned, so they
make good gravy and are not
lost.
Soaring the meat in a very
hot oven to brown it may make
the meat shrink slightly, but
the loss is chiefly fat from the
outside. Formerly we thought
that soaring sealed in the juic-
es.' Now we know it does al
most the opposite, but it adds
fine flavor. The fat starts
trickling down and makes the
roast selfbasting from the first,
so the lean meat does not dry
out.
"You can cook a roast to the
welldone stage entirely in a
moderate oven and it will be
brown by the time it is finished.
This can be done with lamb
and pork, but not usually with
roast beef when cooked only to
the rare stage. When you are
cooking in an oven which can
not be changed quickly from
very hot to moderate it is best
to use a moderate oven from
start to finish.
''The idea that putting a lid
on the rooster kept the meat
from drying out is another
abandoned theory. All the ex-
periments show, rather sur
prisingly, that a lid on the
rooster tends to draw the juice
out of the meat, not to keep it
in. The steamy atmosphere
inside a covered rooster causes
the meat to give up it's juice
and with it a lot of flavor. OF
course one gets this flavor back
in the gravy, but the meat is
not truly roasted.
II prefer an open roasting
pan, with a rack to hold the
meat off the hot pan, so that
the bottom does not overlook.
/ never add water. After scar
ing, the meat will soon provide
you with melted fat for basting,
and so remain juicy and be-
come tender"

RISING SUN HIGH SCHOOL

The following is a copy sent
to the parents of the members
Of the graduating class by the
principal. This letter is the
outgrowth of several cOnferen-
ces held by the Senior Class,
Miss Mendenhall, Home Eco
nomics instructor, and Mr..
Zimmerman:
Rising Sun, Md.
April 26, 1888
Dear Patron:
Graduation time is rapidly drawing
near. We well realize that economic
conditions are such that the greatest
possible economy in expenses for
graduation is justified. AS a result of
these conditions our probable gradu-
ating class has been considering how
they might make their expenses as
low as possible
We wish to inform you as to some
of the conclusions reached by our
class in regards to this important
question.
l. Members of the class will not
sermon to the graduating class held
the Sunday before the graduating ex-
ercises.
2. Boys need not purchase new
clothing for any of the. events. White
flannel trousers for Glass Night the
boys decided would not be used this
year. If a boy. needs new suit at
this time he need not purchase a par
ticular style or color for the gradu-
oft
that they might wear any color or
style suit for the various events.
g. The girls of the class decided that
they would wear dresses of a semi
formal nature for class night. The
girls seemed to think that dresses
could be made of organdy very nicely
and economically. Dresses of this
type they feel would also Nprove SER
viceable and could well used as
summer dress. Miss Mel aenhall, of
the High School faculty, will be glad
to aid the girls in the selection of
their materials and in making the
dresses. We want to emphasize the
fact that if the girl has a suitable
dress no new dress need be purchased
4. The girls likewise decided that
for the graduating exercises they
would wear aadress of the sport type,
appropriate for the occasion. Again
we do not require new dress. Any
girlish dress of reasonable design will
suffice. The girls, however, pledged
themselves that in case they pur-
chased a new dress they would buy
dress not exceeding $500 in cost.
5. The dresses of a semi-formal ma
ture which the girls have decided to
wear for Glass Night will be also fit
ting for wear at the annual Alumni
Banquet. Attendance at this banquet
is not required
6. 1t will not be necessary to pur-
chase new shoes for the various
events. A neat pair of black or white
shoes will suffice.
Z. The invitations to the exercises
are supplied to each member of the
class without charge. If pupils desire
name cards to accompany the invita-
tions they are responsible for these.
We sincerely hope that these con-
illusions reached by the class for the
purpose of economizing in their ex-
penses will meet with your approval
If you would like information in re-
gard to this problem I would be glad
to have you get in touch with me at
my home or at school. My.telephone
number is Rising Sun 1861.
Sincerely yours,
M. U. ZIMMERMAN.

THE POWER OF LOVE
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore. Md.

Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Md.
The power of love will keep the
heart young,
When the years have taken
their flight,
And the shadows are length
ming,
The sun sinking low, as fall
the curtains of night.
The power of love will tighten
the way,
With eternal spring in the
heart.
When the winter of time is
yours and is mine,
In summer we still have a
part.
The power of love, the greatest
of all;
1t never, no never can fail,
But will always abide and keep
close by our side,
When we enter the shadow'y
vale.
The power of love and it's beau
ty sublime,
Will live on in that city of
light;
The home of the blest, where
the weary find rest,
With a halo of glory more
bright.
