IN
THE NORTHERN SKY
Many See Strange Star
Which Alternated
In Color

Visitors on the fairgrounds this
week, on two successive nights,
observed a queer phenomenon in
the northern sky. About 10 o'clock
each night, star, not particular
ly large, kept changing color, al
ternating between red and green
A large number Of persons went
star gazing, attracted by the pc
culiar sight, which, a local as
tronomer explains, no doubt must
have been due to unusual atmos-
pheric conditions.
There is no mistaking the light
as being that of a star as it was
too high up in the heavens for
any beacon light or airplane, and
remain stationary, with the ex-
ception of moving higher towards
the zenith as the night advanced.
While two planets shine bright
ly in the southern sky at this
time, the astronomer explains
this star in the northern sky is
no planet.

OLD LANDMARK GONE

An old oak tree of large dimen-
sions, which, for many years, has
been an old landmark along the
pike at Chewsville, has been cut
down. The tree, which was prob
ably 200 years old, had become
dangerous from decay, and the
oyner, Harry Hartle deemed it
advisable to remove it. The tree
was a popular stopping place for
market wagons in years gone by
when market gardeners from the
Smithsburg and Cavetown districts
and particularly from across the
mountain in Frederick county,
stopped here to feed their horses.

And that reminds me.
have known only one reporter
who never took drink.
One of the best scoops our
paper ever got started in a bar
room. A fellow reporter, very
much under the weather was
RoId that man had just been
Killed at a local railroad cross
ing He rushed back to the of
fice grabbed the telephone and
called the station agent. And
while the phone bell was ring
ing the station agent was watch
ing the accident which was
Gust then occurring. A man was
being run down at the cross

that rang true to the second,
and it will probably never occur
again.
We had only one worry in
the old days-and that was pay
day. Our salaries depended
entirely on collections. If the
advertisers were doing good
business, we had a chance.
Rainy pay-days were poison.
|often wonder how the paper
companies kept in business.
Murders were forever inter-

month Of June. Murders al
ways occurred during that time

HANGOVERS
Ry ZIM

An old cronys of mine drop
I'D in to see me the other day
and we spent an hour talking
over the days when both OF US
were sticking type, "WalEing"
nresses and tickling the limo
type and typewriter keys.
And until that "reunion" |
never realized that time was
passinq so quickly.
Those were the days when
the editor was the big shot IN
the community, and radios
were unknown. In fact, the
editor was king-and ne was
satisfied.
The feeling of Importance
seemed to permeate all through
the newspaper office. And
reporter could get a schooner
Of beer anywhere on the CUR,
and the bartender would never
think of mentioning payment.
Why? Well, even the old-time
suds boys would appreciate
SEEING their names in the paper
now and then.
The saloon was the best
place in town to get tips. The
bartender, like the preacher
and the doctor, seemed to get
the low-down first. It was
worth any reporters time to
call the man behind the bar
by his first name. In fact the
old-time bar man was repor-
ter himself, but he never knew
