1925 CHILDREN ARE
AT MIRACLE HOUSE
Youngsters of Low Physi-
cal Resistance Given
Treatment

Approximately 125 happy chill
dren arrived at the Miracle House
Monday to spend the summer at
the seashore building up their
strength and resistance so that
they can woge successful warfare
against tubercuIosYs-a disease
with which they have been in con-
slant contact.
"These children come from all
sections of the State said Will
liam B. Matthews, managing direc-
tor of the Maryland tuberculosis
Association, the Organization
which operates the Miracle House.
"This group is one of the largest
that has ever been to the proven
forum and this season should be
the most successful. 1t was neces-
sary to turn down many applica-
tions due to lack of space, but
those who were selected were
carefully chosen ana shouIu ue-
rive great benefit from the treat
ment."
The present season is the nine
teenth in the history of the Mir
acle House. During this time
more than 1000 white Maryland
children have been treated there.
The children attending are
white Maryland children and are
between the ages of 6 and IL.
The group includes both boys and
girls. They are underweight and
have low physical resistance and
are in need of treatment to build
I'D their small bodies. To accom-
plish this they are now undergo
ing a regimen of good food, sun
shine, rest, fresh air and health
full play.

When Washington County
Was Young
PART 10
By
GEORGE r. PRATHER
Written exclusively for The Hagerstown Globe

PART 10
1t is very hard to realize what
a vast difference in welfare lies
between the women of today and
the women of early settlement
times. In devotion to duty and
patriotism the writer does not
think there is any difference be-
tween then and now. There may
be some light heads now, but be-
lieving the stories of our grand
parents, there were light heads
then. There have been foolish
people of both sexes through all
past history, and it is probable
there always will be though it is
hoped that we are gaining at least
little.
AS noted before, the people who
settled in Washington County in
the home land from whence they
came to America were mostly a
gentle folk. Those who came
from England, those who came
from France and those VINO came
from the border provinces of
France and Germany, all of one
accord came on account of reli-
gious unrest at home. Arriving
in America their only desire to
secure a place in which they could
plant and dwell, quoting the
words of Sir George Calvert upon
the occasion Of his visit to Vir-
ginia in 1929. They also wished
to exercise themselves in the prac
tees of freedom of thought and
liberty of action denied to them
in the land from whence they
came. Their first impulse was,
therefore, not to abide long in the
cities and older settlements, but
to penetrate the forest and make
that home which they sought a
rest and a refuge from their trou-
bles on the frontier Their high
resolve and purpose elicits from
us, their descendants, our heart
lest acclaim, especially so, since
the final outcome of founding a
state upon the principles of toler-
alton has SO completely vindicat-
ed their action. We believe that
those ancestors in their home
lands were from the best classes,
people of the finest instincts, SEN
sitive, high minded, sincere and
steadfast in their beliefs. On ac-
count of religious belief they
were prosecuted. These persecu-
tons consisted in the refusal of
the governing authorities to allow
them to worship as they pleased
To enforce their obedience their
prosecutors subjected them to
all sorts of indignities, imprison-
ment, floggings, confiscation of
their property and sometimes even
death. Having escaped these
things by coming to America, in
their new homes they found a
new set of difficulties. Instead of
pleasant we'll supplied houses
they found the unfriendly forest,
solitude, wild uncultivated soil,
no place from which to obtain
comfortable articles of clothing,
or supplies of food or implements,

PHOTO OF BLOODY LANE
TAKEN AFTER BATTLE

Webster Piper has valued pho
tograph taken on the Antietam
Battlefield while the dead lay five
deep in Bloody Lane. This part
of the battlefield was on the farm

ton on the picture, was taken by

except Sucn as cOulQ De IOunQ IN
the woods or wrung from the
rough, unwilling earth. Because
of struggles with their material
surroundings as we'll as wars with
Indians, in which they sometimes
endured untold hardships, the suf-
ferings of the settlers were
enough to demoralize and discour-
age the stoutest hearts, except for
the fact that they were upheld by
the hope of realizing the priceless
boon of liberty, both of conscience
and action. Instead of giving way
to their sorrows and sufferings,
they fought their battles, built
homes, cut down the forest, sub
dued the soil, made roads, found
ed churches and schools and Gre
ated a new American culture.
To the creation and develop
ment of this American culture, in
which we all take SO much pride,
the foundation for which was laid
in the very spirit and purpose
which impelled the first settlers
to come to this country, the wo-
men of the period contributed
their full share.
The difference between Ameri-
can and European culture is
founded in the idea of liberty.
Men, for ages, had dreamed of
freedom but never realized it I'M
til America was colonized and
then it reached it's highest ex-
emplification in the Province of
Maryland, as before noted. Since
culture is composed Of both ma
terial and spiritual elements,
these were both very likely to
suffer in such environment as that
in which the settlers lived in
their new country for several gen
erations. Very few had more
than the barest necessities. Poor
housing, scant clothing, no va
riety in food, little social inter
course, together with constant
actual want formed a set of condi-
actualwant, formed set of condi-
lions under which culture was
likely to anguish in all its ele-
ments. Under such conditions
men alone might have given away
to the influence of their sur
roundings, but the women, be it
said I'd their everlasting exalta-
ton, never gave way. Men in the
military camps and mining settle
ments, away from the influence
of home, often forget the nice
ways and refinements of life they
have been accustomed to, but
among the early settlers, led on
by the women, the highest ideals
of life were never submerged
among all their privations. The
historical articles of beauty and
artistry belonging to the period,
unearthed by the antique collec-
tors, by their number and merit,
proves this.

LEST WE FORGET ON
THE FOURTH OF JULY
DR.. Riley Warns Against
Careless Use of Fire
works Over Holiday

Looking ahead to the approach
ing observance of the Fourth of
July, DIR. R. H. Riley, director of
the State Department of Health,
warns against the irresponsible
use of fireworks and other explo-
sives, on that day, or as a matter
OF fact anytime. There are plen-
ty of ways of celebrating the ma
tons birthday, he said, and of
having a good time, also, that are
saner, and much safer.
AS reminder of the dangers in
volved, DR.. Riley said that accord
ing to records which covered only
part of the State, exclusive of
Baltimore City, "a persons living
in the counties of Maryland were
injured, some of them seriously,
last year, in Fourth of July acct
dents caused by fireworks or other
explosives. The records covered
the following counties: Allegany.
5; Anne Arundel, s; Baltimore,
1; Carroll, 2; Frederick, 8; Har-
ford; 4; Howard, 2; Kent,
Montgomery, 81, and Washington,
81. There were probably many
additional accidents in the coun-
ties, he said, that were not re-
ported. Only those due to fire
works or other explosives are in
cluded in the recorded total.
The more serious accidents in
cluded the following:
Laceration of the leg; from ex-
plosion of torpedo bomb, thrown
by passing motorist. Victim
young man standing on a nearby
pavement.
Leg injury, due to explosion of
giant firecracker, thrown by an
unknown person.
Injury to the hand, necessitat-
ing the amputation of middle fling
er, due to exploding firecracker.
Victim a boy of II.
Unknown boy" burned on the
face, from firecracker, thrown by
an unknown person.
Little girl, four years old, third
degree burn on the leg, due to ex-
plosion of cherry bomb' lighted
and accidentally thrown near the
child.
One boy developed tetanus
Qockjaw) from injuries from ex-
ploding caps.
One little girl, years old, died
of phosphorus poisoning from eat
ing a certain kind of explosive.
The hands or fingers were in
jured in 81 instances, in 8 of
which decorations added to the
painfulness of the burns. The
face was involved in 4 of the ac-
cidents in one of which the lips
and tongue were badly burned, in
another the eyelid. Exploding
firecrackers were responsible for
over rs of the accidents; backfir-
ing roman candles for 2; caps or
toy pistols for 2; and exploding
torpedoes for 4.
"All Of these things happened
in Maryland, DR.. Riley said, mot
in any remote part of the country.
They happened to your neighbors
and to mine. Similar or even
more serious accidents are likely
to happen this year. Our memor-
les are very short. This reminder
is given, lest we forget"
