Senior Class
To Present
Play May 8
Thru the Keyhole," by Viii.
liam F. Davidson, Chos-
en- as Vehicle
FINE CAST SELECTED
Three Acts Of Exciting Com.
edy-Will Take Place
In Junior High

Thru the Keyhole," by William
F. Davidson, is the name Of the
senior class play to be given Fri
day evening, May 8, in the Junior
High School auditorium. Grand
mother Tierney, played by Dorothy
Kohl, is quick in thought and &C
ton. Her clever lines keep the
play at high pitch Of interest and
exciting comedy. Joan Coudray,
who poses as a French adventur-
ess, is played by Marion Conkey.
She falls in love with her employ
er, Jim Tierney, a part taken by
Clifford Weber. Jim's sister, Mary,
played by Mary Scott, feels that
her home town of Bayfield, Is too
small for her social and cultural
activities. She seeks new friends in
the Van Camps from New York.
Helen Minette is Genevieve Van
Camp; Vernon Cheney is Archie
Van Camp. William, the butler,
played by Judy Dubois, appreciat-
es Grandma's sense of humor. As
an officer in the British Royal
Air Corps, he takes Mary to a
dance. There his real identity is
discovered, also that of Joan.
George Allen is a friend of the
Tierneys, at whose home the din
ner dance takes place.
The first act Is in the Tierney
home. The new butler and maid
have just been installed, and
Grandma is listening at the door
when Joan drops a vase and for
gets her French accent. Because
Grandma always listens but never
tells, Joan is not fired.
Act II is in the den off the ball
room at George Aliens house Gen
evieve and Archie have decided al
the last minute not to go with Ji.u
and Mary, so rather than stay al
home, Jim takes Joan, the maiu
and Mary goes with her butler
William. The Van Camps turn UP
at the party and recognize Joan
and William. Before the act is over
the identity of each is disclosed.
Act III takes place in the Tier
ney's living room early the next
morning, when the family is just
returning from the party. Mary
and Archie are about to leave to
be married. Jim and Genevieve
were to go along. Grandma, how
ever, has discovered the real iden-
tity of Genevieve and Archie, the
wedding is called off, and Grand

ton. II your board should de-
eide to discontinue this de-

SAVAGE DAM BORINGS TO
START IN TWO WEEKS
Crews Now At Work Clearing
Land; 80 Days To Complete

Army engineers of the Washington
district office have stated that behring's
for the proposed Savage River dam in
Garrett county would be started within
the next two weeks.
A crew of forty men are now en-
ployed at the dam site clearing lands
preliminary to starting the borings.
Engineers said approximately ninety
days would be required to complete
the work.
The dam, estimated by Army en-
gineers to cost $1,6O0,OOO, has been
advocated by members of the Mary
land and West Virginia delegations in
Congress and Potomac valley residents
to provide uniform flow of water in
the Potomac River the year around
and promote industrial expansion in
the vicinity of Cumberland.
Funds for the dam construction have
not yet been set aside, but advocates
of the project have announced they
will seek a specific appropriation in
the coming Congress if an allotment
is not made by that time.

MANY HOMES DECORATED
FOR CHRISTMAS SEASON
Will Participate In Home Light
ing Contest Sponsored by Club

Many homes in Oakland which have
been decorated for the Christmas sea-
son, will be lighted each evening from
Christmas Eve until New Years Eve,
inclusive, in order to participate in
the annual home lighting contest, be-
ing conducted under the auspices of
the Oakland Rotary Club.
Decorations include lighted trees,
stars reckoning from doorways, red
candles beaming from countless win
dows and several unique ideas exem-
plifying the Christmas spirit.
According to the judges, it is upon
a display of the spirit of hospitality
and good cheer that the judges of the
competition will base their selections
when they make their inspection tours
of the city. Elaborateness of design
and expensive equipment will not as
sure a householder one of the prizes.
Rather, it may be the simple, perhaps
homemade display that may best ex-
press the true Yuletide spirit in the
opinion of the judges. The first in
spection trip will be made on Christ
mas Eve-this evening.
The Rotary Club announced last
week that no strict rules were to be
enforced or any contest blanks re-
quired. Judges will consider any home
decorated as being in the contest. Per-
sons in outlying sections who desire to
enter the contest should communicate
with a member of the Rotary Club
so that the judges will not miss them
when the inspection tour is made.
Prizes totaling SIS will be awarded to
first, second and third winners.

SOCIAL SECURITY BOARD.
APPROVES MARYLAND LAW
Trio Will Be Named To Admin
lister States Job Insurance

Washington authorities have given
Maryland the "go ahead" signal on
its unemployment insurance law and
Governor Harry w. Nice prepared to
call a meeting of the board of public
works to name three job-insurance adj
ministrators.
Approval by the Social Security
board in Washington of the act passed
by the legislature in special session
assured the return to Maryland of
nine-tenths of the tax on its payrolls
for the year.
The boards announcement of it's ap-
prevail removed the last barrier to
the beginning of unemployment in
surance administration in Maryland.
If the board had not approved the law,
the legislature would have had to en-
act an approved law in special session
before December 81.
Will Name Administrators
The Maryland bill provides for the
appointment of board of three to adj
minister the unemployment insurance.
This board will be named by the board
of public works, consisting of Cover
nor Nice, State Comptroller William S.
Gordy, Jr., and State Treasurer Hoop
er S. Miles.
II presume that Mr.. Gordy and Mr..
Miles are about ready to make their
selections" Nice said. ~ have notified
them that I am ready to call a meet
ing of the board of public works to
ratify their selections as soon as they
are prepared"
Both Gordy and Miles are Demo-
Gratis. Nice is a Republican.
Employers of Eight Pay
Employers of eight or more persons
must pay the state tax on payrolls
to go into the job insurance fund. Do
nestle, agricultural and state and
national labor are exempt. The federal
government also taxes employers
payrolls.
This tax went into effect last Janu-
airy and had Maryland not passed an
approved unemployment insurance
law before the end of the year the col
lections from this tax would have gone
into the Federal instead of the state
treasury.

follows: Gnegy church, service at
9:15, followed by the Sunday school
program. Red House services at the
usual time in the morning and Luther
League in the evening at 7:45 o'clock.
"Bethlehem's Babe in the Temple" is
the theme of the sermon. The Gospels
reveal the attitude of various types
of people toward the Christ Child:
Shepherds from the hills sang praises
to God when they found Him Of whom
the angel spake; wise men from afar
opened their treasures when they saw
the holy family; devout people in the
temple were filled with gladness when
Joseph and Mary came in with the
Babe. What is our real attitude toward
Gods great Gift to humanity?
