Any endeavor that tends to ac-
quaint people with the advantages of
this county is we'll worth the effort
and those who are responsible should
receive due credit.
Garrett county has special things
to offer. There are potatoes, maple
syrup, etc., in the foodline. There is
pure drinking water. There is
healthy atmosphere.
There is beautiful mountain scenery
that cannot be surpassed by any Sec
ton anywhere. There are also many
other advantages, but that is not the
point.
We all know it here. People away
from here do not know it, have never
heard of it, and that is our job-to
tell others about it.
Telling others about Garrett county
means advertising. Unless those who
live here boost this area, it will never
be possible to do so successfully.
Those who do anything to boost the
county should have unstinted praise.
During the past several years there
has been concerted effort to do this
boosting. While Grover Stemple was
mayor there came much close rela-
tionship with Pittsburgh and that
area. Newspapers in Pittsburgh and
Baltimore gave over a section of their
rotogravure sections for pictures of
Garrett county.
Since Lawrence Fraley has been
mayor this job of telling others about
the county has been continued. There
have been feature stories in city pa
pers about Garrett county. By contact
with B. and o. officials there has been
scheduled an autumn leaf excursion
from Baltimore and Washington.
There are others beside former
Mayor Stemple and our present Mayor
who have been boosting, and working
quietly to attract people here. Doctor
McComas, in his capacity as conser-
walton commissioner, is making Deep
Creek Lake a place where fishermen
from several states will delight to
come.
The town council is sponsoring a
golf course to interest tourists. The
Tableland association, Camp Meeting
association, the Mt. Choir festival, all
work to make this section more noted.
Approximately 100 people will as
sist individually ON Sunday in offering
their cars and themselves as drivers,
just in order to make 300 or 400
people from Baltimore and Washing
ton feel welcome and at home.
The immediate return for all this
boosting and hospitality cannot be
noticed at the time, but it all has been
helping.
There are many whom we are I'M
able to name, because we do not know
them, who are boosting this commune
ty every day.
Keep it up! Just because no i'm
mediate jump in population, business,
etc., can be noticed, is no sign that
the boosting is in vain. A boost now
may mean visit from someone ten
years from now.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1937-09-30

Sunday is good chance to boost.
And don't let it be a ''kick in the
pants" like the excursion from Pitts
burgh was summer before last.

1t is always interesting to go to a
fire in the early morning hours. You
usually find out just who stays up
late, who dresses carefully after get
ting out of bed in hurry, even to the
extent of putting on a tie; what kind
of pajamas so and so wears; and lot
of other things. In case you've ever
been to fire, you know what 1 mean.

1t is human nature for people to
want to learn things by themselves.
They seldom take the advice of older
people.
But the trouble with the school of
experience is that when you are old
enough to graduate you are too old to
benefit by the education you haze re-
ceived. Ask any older person who is
now trying to tell you how to perform.

appears that $147,000 is required to

of big figures, that looks like a lot OF
money to me. The county would fur

from State and Federal funds-but
don't worry, the county people pay

Without furnace in the cellar (the

HATS OFF TO
 COAST GUARD
 l47 YRS. OLD

Today, August 4th, 1887, marks the l47 birthday of the United States Coast Guard
 The Coast Guard, our oldest military organization afloat, was established by Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton under President Washington. on August 1, l790, as the infant Re publc's first measure for pro- lection for customs revenue and maritime commerce. At the time of the organization of the Coast Guard first called the Revenue Gutter Serve) the United States had disbanded the Continental Navy. As a result, this Service, with its eight small vessels, was our only sea power until the Navy was established in l7e8.
 A Three-Fold Duty
 Through the years the Coast Guard has been concerned with the responsibility of performing a three-fold duty: the saving of life and property at sea, the en- forcement of laws pertaining to customs revenue and maritime commerce, and active service as part of the Navy in time of war or whenever the President shall so direct.
 New Name Adopted
 In 1871 the Congress recogniz- ed that lifesaving at sea and from ashore was closely related to the duty of assisting vessels in dist ress, which the Revenue Cutters had been performing. Therefore. all matters connected with the saving Of fife along the coast were placed under the administ- ration of he Revenue Gutter Ser vice at that time. This activity was performed by an organization known as the Lifesaving Service. In 1878 the Litesaving Service be- came an indiv;d dual bureau of the Treasury Department and was separated from the Revenue Cutt- CT Service. From 1878 until 1915 the two SeTv. ces worked in close harmony and performed parellel duties, ln 1915 a reorganization took place in which the Revenue Gutter Service and the Lifesav- ing Service was combined. This new organization took the name Limited States Coast Guard"
The Nome daily nugget., 1937-08-04
Remarkable Record

The performance of the num- erous services to the Nation and to humanity, falling within the previously mentioned three-fold duties, requires high degree of efficiency at all times. Today, the Coast Guard in addition to its law enforcement work, is main taining its remarkable record of saving over 5000 lives and 60 million dollars worth of vessels and car goes each year.

Many Ships in Commission

At the beginning of the fiscal year l936-37 the Coast Guard had in active commission 32 cruising cutter, 46 sea going partol boats and 2l7 smaller craft. Seven new 327-foot cruising cutters have been completed during the past year and a half. In addition to the foregoing there are many motor lifeboats which make up the eq- uipment of the 278 Coast Guard Stations, and g Coast Guard Air Station where AZ planes of various types are operated by the Ser vice in connection with it's many duties.
