Several hundred women were
disappointed when seasonal rainy
period in May, prevented the an
nual meeting and tea of the Home
makers Council from being held
at Greenwood" with Mrs. Wilbur
Nash, Jr., who had so graciously
invited them to use her garden for
the occasion.
Greenwood" the old home of
the Davis family, most Familiarity
known Gin these parts" as the
Bowie Davis place, stands on the
Olney Cooksville Road, two mile;
beyond Brookeville.
We are told that Thomas Davis
came to Maryland in 1890 - pur-
chased tract of several hundred
acres from Snowden Manor in 1921
on which there was small two
story stone building which formed
the nucleus of the present mansion.
About 1740 Thomas Davis built.

building = in 1903 his grandson

Allan Bowie Davis in 1854 added
the unusual tower at one end,
which is shown on the ice-cream
platter, which is the property of
the U. S. S. Maryland = in this
tower Mr.. Davis had his study,
where no one dared enter without
his permission. The tower has
been removed and the house has
resumed the appearance of which
Ephraim Davis was SO proud, al
most $50 years ago.
The property had remained in
the Davis family all those years
but was sold to Mr.. Wilbur Nash

Festival Will Be Held AT
La Plata On Sept. rs, q
At Bumper SensOn Ends

GOVERNOR Herbert R. O'Conor
of Maryland this week invited the
governors Of Virginia, North Caro-
lima, South Carolina, Kentucky.
Pennsylvania and Connecticut to
attend Maryland's tobacco festival,
"The Court of the Magic Weed" to
be held at La Plata on September

"Queen Nicotina, VIII," will be

ties. Vincent Lopez orchestra will
furnish music for a crowd of 5000
or more guests from Maryland,
Virginia and the District of Column
bia. On Friday night a gigantic
barn dance will be held in the La

former charm - the garden shows
its past beauty, with it's unique
smoke tree" = its lovely box and
holly, and between the entrance
gates and the house is one of the
largest hemlocks - what play
house for the children!
A small porch overlooks a side
garden, where there still remains a
hollow circle of box, of which the
story is told of "old Massa" sitting
in the sun, throwing pennies into
the circle laughing to see the little
"pickaninnies dive over the breast
high box to get the coins.
Near the road to the right of
the entrance is the family bury
ing ground, in which several gen
erations of Davises and their "kin"
lie buried = nearby, within the en-
closure, are buried a few slaves,
presumably favorite house serv-
ants.
This cemetery is beautifully pre-
served - there is perpetual fund
for the purpose. Boyd's History
of Montgomery County says the
first Thomas Davis and his wife
lie there - but we seem to remem-
Der Ephraim's stone as being the
oldest.
In the old Davis home in Balti-
more, where the last of the three
famous Davis girls" died several
years ago, is Ephraim Davis old
Bible, in which is inscribed this
quaint rhyme:
Ephraim Davis, his Book
God give him grace to look,
And not only look, but understand
For learning is better than house
and land.
When house and land is gone and
spent,
Then learning is most excellent.
Next week we hope to tell you
more about this family who found
learning "most excellent" = about
the ghost = yes, indeed it has
ghost - and about the old part of
the house that dates back over two
hundred years.

Once a rich mans hobby, today

For the silver-moon has been taken
in hand by man, and its descendants
can be purchased for a reasonable
price.
In this particular case, beauty
and good behavior 90 hand In hand.
Truly this fish is an aristocrat OF the

his mate travel through the water
as if it were beneath them to be
hasty in their actions, this is pose,
since they change their minds at the
prospect of an immediate meal and

We have claimed for the silver
moon superior behavior. SHe be-
longs to the family Cichlids famous
for its fighters and lively combat
ants. Indeed, many of his cousins,
aunts and uncles are savage rascals
and cannot get along with each
other, not even their own mates,
Wisely they do not fight neighbors
larger than themselves, which shows
discretion and almost human cau-
ton. Their disposition seems to
run to tearing up neighbors and de-
stroying rooted plants. Perhaps
they simply possess excess energy.
But silver-moon has learned to
curb the family 'taint" and the
only bad mark we find against an
otherwise worthy record is his tend
ency to feast upon eggs for which
he and his mate are responsible.
The large firm leaves, usually the
giant Sagittaria, are planted in
the aquarium and are the places
the mother selects for her eggs
These should be removed at once
and placed in clear, clean aquar-
ium without neighbors. If possible,
artificial circulation of water is
desirable, though not absolutely
necessary, especially since nothing
is likely to settle upon the eggs and
smother the tiny young. The eggs
are adhesive and remain safe and

I am sorry we have had to be here
so long"
The police guard gone! Suddenly
everything seemed better. once
she had chance to dispose OF that
gun she would be safe. That was
all that mattered now.
I'm sorry I made such an idiot
of myself" she said, rising Shakily
to her feet as Crystal took her arm
and started walking with her to the
door.
Darling, you have come through
a terrible night and day marvel
ously. 1t would have killed me.
You had a perfect right to faint and
If you hadn't that pompous little
captain would have been here all
night. He gets me down-that man"
They were at the door now, look
ing out into the great hall, deserted
and dimly lighted as usual. This
was her chance. 1t would not take
long.
Crystal, will you be an angel
and find Kate for me? No use ring
ing for her as she is never in the
kitchen at this time You'll probably
find her in my room. Ask her to
give you coat. I want some fresh
air. I need it,"
"I'l say you do. Walk home with
me. It will do you good. I'll be
right back
For the space of few hurried
heartbeats Sandra stood and lis
tened. The echoing old house was
strangely silent. Turning swiftly to
the coat rack she stretched out her
hand to get the gun and started
back in terror.
The coat was gone.
