A BIT OF TREE HISTORY

During the heavy storm of last
week one of the fine old loblolly
poplar trees on the Elementary
school grounds was broken off near
the ground, and had to be cut down.
Seven of these trees were planted
along the front walk of the public
school, about As years ago, on Arbor
Day, by boys then attending the
school, and all of the trees lived and
grew. The other six are still stand
ing, and are large, healthy trees.
The teachers in the school at the
time were Miss M. Emma Haines,
and Miss Blanche Bond. Among the
boys who planted the trees were H.
M. Wilson, now garage man of our
town, whose tree it was that was
blown down last week, Halus Ewing,
j. r. Sheppard, Oakley Quincy, How
ard Taylor, and others whom we do
not recall at this time.

Land For C. & D.
Canal
Condemnation Proceedings
BY Government Involve
1000 Acres Of Land

Petitions asking for the condem-
nation of n parcels of land, with a
total acreage of about 1000 located
along the Chesapeake and Delaware
Canal, were field in the U. S. District
Court, Wilmington, on Thursday, be-
fore Judge Nields by U. S. District
Attorney Wales, Warren E. Magee,
special attorney for the Department
of Justice, from Washington, and ].
LaPenne Guenveur, special attorney
for the u. S. Engineer Office.
The government seeks the prop
erty to carry out the work of con-
verting the canal from barge to
ship canal, by widening it from 80
to $50 feet and deepening it from IL
to 81 feet.
Similar proceedings to condemn
fffty-one parcels of land in Cecil
county were instituted Friday in the
U. S. District Court, Baltimore.
The suits were instituted by Ber-
nard j. Flynn, United States District
Attorney, and decree was signed by
Judge w. Calvin Chestnut giving the
owners of the various parcels until
July 20 to show cause why the prop
erty should not be condemned.
Most of the parcels in Maryland,
varying from fraction of an acre to
nearly forty acres in size, are rural,
although some are used as fishing
shores and few are located in COM
munities. No estimate of their
value has been made, as the con-
domination cost will be decided by a
jury after an inspection of the vari-
GUS parcels.
Nearly $1,000,O00 has been set
aside by the government to secure
and in Delaware and Maryland need
ed for the widening and deepening
project.
1t is expected that nearly 1000
men will be employed during the
period of more than IS months on
the enlarging of the canal. Adver-
tisements for bids for the work will
be posted in a few days. The entire
project will cost about $12,000,0
and $5,17O,O0O has been provided
from work relief funds for the pres
ent work.
When completed the canal will
accommodate deep-draft ocean YES
sells, thus reducing sailing time from
Baltimore to Europe and New York
by eliminating the long trip down
the Chesapeake bay.

State Roads Snarl
Attempt To Republicanize
Roads Leads To Injunction

In the Circuit Court at Elkton on
Tuesday was considered the injunc-
ton case, brought by the Board OF
Commissioners of Cecil County
against the State Roads Commission,
following the Commissions dismissal
of Democratic road supervisor and
the appointment of a Republican to
the job.
The first of the month the STATE
Roads Commission gave notice to
Joseph T. Richards, Democrat, road
supervisor for Cecil county, that his
services would be dispensed with
after June Is, whereupon the Board
of County Commissioners took steps
to obtain from the Circuit Court, an
injunction to prevent the State Roads
Commission from carrying out it's
order in regard TO Mr.. Richards.
The court at Elkton passed an Or
der directed to the State Roads Com
mission, requiring it to show cause
why an injunction should not be
issued preventing the dismissal OF
Joseph T. Richards, and the said
order was made returnable Tuesday
1t was alleged by the Board of
County Commissioners that the State
body exceeded it's authority, alleging
that the road law passed in 1888
placing power of removal in the COM
mission only when any employe shall
be found to be incompetent or in
efficient or his employment not
economically justified.
The State Roads Commission filed
answer to the injunction proceedings
on Tuesday, and the Court set Tues
day, July 2, as the date when argu-
ments will be heard.

Old Age Pensions
Counties Making Provision
For Funds In Assessments

Many inquiries are being received
by our County Boards concerning the
Old Age Pensions, when they will be
paid, what steps to take in filing
papers, etc., etc.
1t is believed that it will be as late
as September before pensions will be
paid. The State Board having this
in charge is just beginning TO get its
bureau set up. Forms are to be
drafted and printed, personnel Is to
be examined and selected, counties
have to levy funds and the state must
secure money All of these things
are essential before pensions car be
paid.
All kinds of applications are being
sent in. This is futile. Applications
will have to be on a standard form
yet to be devised, and then the appii-
cation is passed on by the Welfare
Board, who in turn passes it on to
the Board of State Aid and Charities,
who have the final say
Persons desiring to apply for pen
sions are advised to wait until due
notice is given. 1t will be at least
two months before pensions applica-
lions will be examined. 1t is even
possible that it will be October before
any pension is paid. Interested per-
sons are not furthering their claims
by submitting them now. These
will all have to be done again on
standard form.
