CHAMBER MANAGER
TELLS GROUP NOT TO
SELL AMERICA SHORT
Wray Lemon Flags "Ca-
lamity Howlers" in Talk
to Kelvinator Dealers

Never sell America short" de-
clared G. Wray Lemon, manager
of the Hagerstown Chamber of
Commerce in a brief but character
istically pungent address he made
before the Kelvinator statesmen
and dealers, who came to this CITY
from Maryland, Virginia, West
Virginia and Pennsylvania. Mr..
Lemon minced no words in deal
ing with those who are fearful of
the future Of business in this
country.
Don't listen" he continued, ito
the calamity chatterers-the peo-
pie who say that America is go
ing into tail-spin that will, in
evitably, end in a collapse. That
is sheer nonsense. America is
not only coming back-it is 60
ing forward"
The Chambers manager declar-
ed that a dealer or a salesman to
be successful must shut his ears
to a lot of idle talk and concen-
trate upon the matter at hand.
You must believe in America, .
he continued. you must believe
in your product and, most import
ant of all, you must believe in
yourself.
mo man is better than his own
estimate of himself. The world
may call man dub, but that
does not make him one. No one
can lick you but yourself. We
must have the courage and the
confidence to say: This thing /
can do; this thing l will do and
no one can stop me from doing
It,"
In support of his contention that
business men should not be fear
full Of the future, Manager Lemon
quoted from a current history of
the last hundred years to show
that President Van Buren, was
boldly optimistic in the face Of
dire distress and obvious depres-
sion.' The country not only sur
vived that depression but the
troublous years of 1873, 1898,
1907 and 1929, the speaker point
ed out. 'fFear paralyses; conf
dence inspires the WILL" Mr.. Lem
on concluded. mo man should
let the devil Of mistrust take pos
session of his SOUL"

MANUFACTURERS
MEETING TONIGHT
AT THE ALEXANDER
Local Manufacturers To
Display Products Dur
ing Celebration

Manufacturers of Haaers-
town and members of the local
Ct1amoer of Commerce, will
meet tonight at the Hotel Al
exander and make tentative
plans to participate in the
greatest industrial exhibit
ever sponsored in this city.
The exhibit will be one of the
big features of the Antietam
Commemoration celebration to
be held in Hagerstown in
September.
The meeting, sponsored by
the Hagerstown Chamber of
Il Commerce, will bring together
all manufacturers and they
will be urged to help "teII the
world" what Hagerstown
makes in the form of indus
trial displays here during the
ten days celebration.
1t is conservatively estimated
that during the ten days more
than 100000 visitors will see the
mammoth display. Collectively,
many thousands of dollars will be
spent on the project and this par
ticular phase Of the celebration
will be Of untold benefit not only
to the manufacturers themselves
but to the town as well.
According to reliable informa-
ton, efforts are now being made
to induce the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad to put on the y@Show of
the Iron Horse" If these efforts
are successful the exhibit will be
staged in the center Of the race
track on the Fairgrounds. Others
being contracted for big displays
are the Ford Motor Company.
General Motors, and other nation
ally-known manufacturing con-
Germs.
Hagerstown is probably the
only city of its size in Maryland
that can boast OF as many diverSi-
fled industries. No other town in
the State, with the exception OF
Baltimore, is in this class, and
this will add much to the general
exhibit. Among the major indus
tries are included manufacturers
of shoes, furniture, hosiery, rib
bon, children's dresses, shoe soles
and leather goods, leather mats.
rubber heels and soles, paper
boxes, printing, pipe organs, taxi
cabs, cement, airplanes, sand
blasting equipment, refrigerator
doors, oil burners and milk-cool-
ing cabinets, engines and boilers,
toys, medical books, underwear
and many other products.
"This Industrial exhibit viii be
the greatest display ever seen In
Hagerstown,' a member of the
Chamber Of Commerce said, "and
it will leave a lasting impression

never satisfied.
Down in Annapolis, Mary
lands chief executive, has pro-
posed licensing of bookmakers
as a means of raising taxes.
Governor Nice is particularly
anxious to impress upon the
people the fact that it is not
his idea, and that it is just
proposal"
We can remember the day
when the Prohibitionists of
the country were making pro-
gress in their battle against
the "eviIs of drink" They
were accomplishing their pur-
pose through an educational
program. But that was too
slow. They set out to dry up
the country in doubIe-quick
time-and did just that. Now
they're back where they start
ed.
Washington County knows
all about book-making, and we
yokels up here in the woods
of Western Maryland certain
ly won't waste our time ex-
planning the evils of book
making to the city boys down
in Baltimore. We know that
bookmaking, whether licensed
or not, has a bad effect on the
young and old alike, that it re-
tards business, and that both
men and women of all ages
spend too much of their time
trying to beat the racket. We
might also make the predic-
tion that should bookmakers
be licensed, it will only be a
question of time until betting
on the thoroughbreds will be
outlaWed throughout the en-
tire State. In other words,
a law licensing bookmaking
would be duck soup for the
reformers.
We are not setting oursel-
YES up on the side of the re-
formers because only Heaven
knows the small amount of
good on our balance sheet.
AS a matter Of fact, we like
our mugs OF beer, ice-coId and
when we go to the race track
we toss a few iron men to
the Mutual boys, just to be
sociabIe.. But, no one can
be sociabIe when he tries to
drink everything behind the
bar, or play the ponies 365
days in the year.
And what suggestion do we
have Of raising the needed
revenue?

think they can beat the
game"

Bill killed for the railroad, 1890 buff
falo with the help Of his pony "Old
Brigham" and his breach-loader, ''Lu-

Jim White was another noted buff

he would return to his camp and tell
his slinners just where to find the
buffalo So accurately could he de-
scribe the country that his men seldom

Jim White, like all of the early
hunters, made his own bullets. In order
to do this, it was necessary to carry
with him lead bars which could be

terror of his enormous size, blood was
streaming from portions of his wound

head somewhat lowered, the blood and

As If to intimidate his victim further,
he let out a below of rage.
Richards stood facing the beast with
that feeling of certainty that his last
cartridge was in his gun He was afraid
to shoot for fear the animal would again
start forward For few minutes the
two stood facing each other and then
the bloody horror before him began
to Waver little from side to side and
suddenly went down. He had come just
as far as he could. He was dead when
Richards reached him. The fatal shot
had passed along the side Of the neck
and entered his body between the neck
and shoulder blade and it was only
miracle with the excited firing that
one of those shots had proved to be
fatal.

keep on the off side of the wind so
that their scent might not reach the
quietly grazing herd, they would work
as closely as possible toward them.
Then with loud shouting they would
rush at last upon the now stampeding
herd. Riding to the side Of fat COW,
they would pour their arrows into its

old hunters claimed that the arrow was
shot just in front of the hip with a
downward stroke which carried 1t to

Then the mighty hunters returned to

Following close upon the heels Of the

was cut up and packed on horses to

Another method of killing the buffa-

sally forth to form a huge circle Of
about six miles in diameter. Then
quietly and slowly they worked toward

their work while the Squawg, old men
and children would close in and keep
the herd from escaping.
