at the altar. Being always proper in
her demeanor, true to her promises, a
thoughtful hearer, a conservative
churchwoman, she set her image in all
our hearts. Whilst that, of course,

the kind heart of her father, as well
as that of her nurse, Mrs. Wiencke,
yet, all who knew her will beg to share
the experience.
If, then, her demise happened to
cross our personal hopes and prayers,
it was, nevertheless, according to her
wish. We shall cherish her in death,
as we loved her in life. She rests in
the conviction that her lot has fallen
to her in good part. We must needs
raise our vision in this bereavement
to the divine perspective, where it
finds its fixation in the love of the
Eternal. Thus, the Christ pulsation
becomes perceptible to US. Let her
spirit soar up and on under the banner
of the Cross!
AS for you, Mr.. Enlow, you are en-

that you should do for God what He
has done for you: lay upon His altar
your daughter as the sacrifice of your
love for Him.

There is a time for all things. The

a prejudiced and hostile county press.
The case now rests with the people
of the county whose common sense as

Spirit of '76 is not dead and will arise

that mud Scooping column in last

when anyone Scoops mud he is sure
to become bedaubed himself. Even
Noah Webster received a generous
Scoopful of the noxious stuff in an eff

We are not interested in nonsense.

Letters to the Editor
To The Editor of The Republican:

To The Editor of The Republican:
Every citizen of Oakland and those
expecting to become citizens should
read with care the annual financial
statement of the Mayor and Town
| Council.
There is no need of going into de-
tail concerning the report, because it
speaks for itself. Whatever might be
the opinion of a voter of any town
as to the why of a candidate for the
position of Mayor or Councilman,
there are still few things that must
enter into consideration for his or
her vote to be cast in the best inter-
ests of the town in which he or she
lives.
The Mayor and Councilmen have
but one duty and that is to conduct
the business of the town in an intelli-
gent, efficient and economical manner.
In order to do this there should be
some qualifications and some interest
in the affairs of the town within each
individual Mayor and Councilman.
A study of the financial statement
of the town of Oakland, found in this
paper today, will prove to any fair
minded citizen that there has been
some highly efficient work done in re-
gard to the handling of the business
of the town during the past years.
The time has come when the Mayor
and a part of the council must retire
or be reelected. The voice of the citi-
zens will determine whether or not
they return to office.
The liabilities of the Town, as re-
fiected in the financial statement for
the year 1880, showed total indebted
ness of $1O6, 497.O5, while at the close
of the fiscal year, February 20, 1896,
they are only $7O,822.2O. This is a
decrease in liabilities of $35,674.85 in
the past six years.
The net assets, as reflected in the
financial statement for the year 1880,
showed total of SAL, O32.55, while at
the close of the fiscal year, February
20, 1886, they are $73,24729, an in
crease of $32,214.74 in the past six
years.
In 1880 the town tax rate was $1.OO
and has been gradually reduced until
the past three years the rate has only
been 60 cents. This amounts to a re-
duction of 40 cents in the past six
years.
In 1880 the water rate was 60 cents
and has been reduced until the present
time it is only 45 cents. This amounts
to decrease of % percent.
All of the above savings have been
effected during the worst financial era
of the country, and, while other mu-
inequalities, counties, states and the
nation have found it necessary to in
crease their taxes, our own has been
managed in such manner that the saw
ings have been passed on to the in
dividuals living in the town.
During this time garbage collection
has been inaugurated, a site for an
auxiliary reservoir purchased and paid
for, thousands of dollars in back taxes
collected, and a number of streets
improved including the Court House
hill and streets near the cemetery.
Yours very truly,
GROVER C.. STEMPLE.
Mayor of Oakland for the past six
years.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1936-03-05

Ruth Christine Enlow grew up and
unfolded her personality among US
like one of the unique flowers of this
sunny land. AS she was the only
daughter of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
E. E. Enlow, it was but natural, per-
haps, that every step of her youthful
progress was lovingly guarded, no
effort having been spared to bring out
the best of her powers. She stood-her
season through-in the fair light of
day; she waited her fragrance about
her; she drew attention upon herself
for what was the distinctive quality
of her personal excellence. The flower
is culled off the hills of time!
In this still and solemn hour, as we
stand, grieving, around her bier, one
thought circles through all our minds
that, considering how we'll her con-
stitution had all along been tempered
to health and moderation, to an equa-
BILE frame of mind, her season seems,
this day, unjustly curtailed. What
chill wind was it that so nipped her
at the very moment when her God
given powers to cheer her own dear
father and to add her momentum
still further to the kingdom that
might have filled the full measure of
her possible usefulness?
In truth, however, Ruth Enlow had
achieved, even at this stage of her life,
career for herself, which was ex-
pressed and applied in terms of use
fulness, not alone by the studious hab-
it's of life she had established for her.
self, but even more by the diligent and
careful attention she gave librarian
ship.
Owing to the HELPFUL circumstance,
that Ruth's father had for consider
able period of years presided as a
teacher and principal in the public
schools, which service was incidental
to his later service as Inspector of
Customs, Customs Agent and Special
Agent, all in the Treasury Department
of this port, his skill in pedagogy was
turned to the benefit of the young
daughters first education in the three
RS. This was singular advantage,
for, upon being brought to school,
Ruth was directly entered at the fifth
grade. Graduating later in the Den
man school, the young girl gave her
parents a pleasant surprise, carry
ing off double honors in receiving both
the Bridges and the penman medals
for the excellence in scholarship.
Then it became necessary to choose
high school where Ruth could make
such preparations as best fitted her for
the university. Ruth, not flinching at
difficulties, preferred the academic
course offered by Lowell high school.
If it were reported that any one school
was wont to burden its curriculum
with problems involving much more
llstudy, that school the more allured
her to it's hall, so that she might there
apply herself to mastering all intri-
cacies. Here, then, Ruth put on record
more than the required series of cred
its for naturalization at the univer-
sity.
Four years of intensive application
were to follow. English stood as her
major. Though the young student was
known to be most courteous and af
fable in her casual association with
her fellow-students, an innate element
was undeniable in her, emphasized, per-
haps, by the refined breeding of her
home life, which centered practically
all her interest in books, problems and
