tains where they had just established
a golf course. The inquiry was from
a man at Atlanta, Ga.
This business of boosting Oakland
and Garrett county is not a one-season
affair. We've got to keep it up. Pub
licity given this summer may take eff
feet next year or even five years from
now. There's no telling how or when,
but there is one sure thing-it is
effective.
The way the O'Conor and Jackson
challengers objected to ballots during
the recount was outlandish. A bal
lot with the merest speck or mark
was often objected to, even though the
''X'' was within the designated spaces.
In this way more than enough ballots
were rejected to make the county pay
for the recount. That's what l would
call an injustice. You can call it
what you will.

There are getting to be so many
festivals these days that in another
ten years there will be one for every
day in the year. With festivals and
legal holidays and everybody depend
ing on the government for a living,
won't this be happy go-lucky world
and useless.
The latest festival to spring up is
the Buckwheat festival for Preston
county, our neighbors. Looks like Gar
rett county is left out in the cold.
There is already a potato festival,
so we can't duplicate that one. l am
not sure about maple sugar queen
or an oats harvest queen. Maybe we
could have a browning Of "king corn"
again, or do the moonshine stills con-
tinue to be as numerous as formerly?
With all the fuss and tuning about
the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor of this grand and glorious Gree
State, it looks mighty favorable for
the reelection of Governor Harry w.
Nice in November.
Well, there will be one thing less
on the November ballot. There won't
be a referendum on the dentists bill
mot the one received on the first of
every month";.
When the measure was passed by
the Legislature flock of dentists filed
a petition to have the voters pass on
it, and the State has spent quite a sum
of money advertising the bill, which
would set up a state board of exam
iners to regulate the profession and
would ban advertising by the molar
jerkers, except a small specified adj
vertsement or card. But the Court Of
Appeals has ruled the petition was not
legal-and so there won't be any ref
erendum.
Still there will be a referendum on
the two-day marriage law, and voters
will have to pass on three proposed
Constitutional amendments, one pro-
viding for an additional judge in the
second circuit; one prohibiting the
General Assembly from authorizing Q
lottery, and one authorizing the Gen
eral Assembly to impose taxes on in
comes.
All these proposed laws are given in
full on page seven of The Republican
and should be carefully studied by the
voters.
Last Friday, according to the cal
endar, was the beginning of autumn.
While we can expect some more
warm and sunshiny days during Octo-
Der, the leaves of the trees have al
ready begun to color, and it won't be
long until all but the pines will be
turning. Leaves were beginning to
color even before Jack Frost got in
his punches on Sunday and Monday
mornings.
Botanists and foresters of today
deny that Jack Frost is the man who
paints the leaves red. They say the
coloring of the leaves comes from min
erals in the soil that are fed through
the "circulatory" systems from the
roots up the trunk of the tree to the
branches and thence into the leaves,
but they are unable to explain how,
why and whence it all happens.
At any rate the foliage here should
be gorgeous when the 500 Baltimore
ans come up here on Sunday, October
9, on the final excursion of the year.
1t is said by someone that Hitler has
asked Roosevelt for the loan of $4,000
WPA workers. He wants to get them
over there and melt the lead out of
their feet so he can make more bull
lets.

Reading Glasses Needed?

Workmen were engaged the other
day in placing a sign near the elemen-
tary school: school; Drive Slow"
Two young boys came along and
looked curiously at the sign. "This way
to school," one read laboriously. Said
the other, "What do they want to put
up a sign like that for? We know how
to get there"

Considering the entire summer
there was more publicity given to this

years.
