Treatments
To Refine

BY DONNA GRACE

LARGE PORES need not be
classed as skin blemishes and in
most cases we believe their
source may be traced to neg
7lect. There are few young
sters with large pores.
The best treatment for this
trouble is to prevent il. The
skin surface is moist and will at
tract and hold dust. This will
eventually stretch the pores and
make them flaccid so it becomes

Soap and Water
Creams and lotions as we'll as
astringents are all necessary in
keeping the texture soft and
smooth, but when ii comes to
the real cleansings and stimulat-

show the best results.
The alkali in soap has some

the pores and Immediately re-
leases the oils and fluids that

pores will be kept almost invis-

The oil skin needs special care.
The important thing 10 remem-

Proper Care

Don't Smear
Care must be taken not to use

REGISTRATION DATE SET
FOR MILLION YOUNG MEN
Those Who Have Reached Fl
Since October 16 Must Register
With SeIective Service, July

Approximately 100000 young
men who have become twenty-one
years old since October 16 or will
reach that age in the next five weeks
have been ordered by President
Roosevelt today to register on July
l for possible military training.
The registration will be conducted
by the Selective Service systems
$500 boards throughout the country
and the new men signed up in each
area are expected to be put at the
bottom of their local draft lists in an
order of priority among themselves to
be determined by new national lot
terry.
In a proclamation fixing the regis
tration date, the President said the
action was required in the interests
of the national defense" and defined
those who must register as all I'M
registered male citizens and aliens in
the United States, Hawaii, Puerto
Rico, and Alaska, who have attained
their twenty first birthday on or be-
fore July. l.
Some of those who have become
twenty-one since the first group of
16,500,000 men was signed up on
October 16 already have registered
and volunteered for year of train
ing. A provision of the draft law al
lows voluntary service by men Is to
81.
The July date was chosen, it was
understood, in order that men regis
tering then would have time to find
out before fall whether or not they
might expect to be called for duty.
This would permit them to plan ahead
for their fall and winter work or edu-
cational schedules.
The manner of migrating these
new men with the first group of
draftees in each local area has been
under consideration for several
months. Two principal methods were
studied. One called for sandwiching
them amo the original registrants
by lottery" The other for adding them
to the end Of the lists. Officials said
that the latter method probably would
be used
The expectation is that thousands

called for service within a few months
even though they are put at the end
of their local draft lists. Officials said
that local boards will be inclined to
go quickly through their older regis
trants in order to reach men who
have neither dependents nor essential
employment and are at an age which
the army wants.

A. c. STEWART
is DEFEATED BY
MRS. W. D. BRYON
Difference In Votes Is About
1000 AS Sixth District Sends
First Woman to- Congress

Maryland's Sixth Congress
sional district on Tuesday gave
Maryland, the free state, it's
first woman representative in
Congress-Mrs. Katharine E.
Byron, Democrat.
Unofficial returns from the
districts 299 polling places gave
the widow of the late Rep. Will
liam D. Byron, 1888 votes and
A. Charles Stewart, Frostburg
Republican, 24,635 votes. This
gives Mrs. Byron a majority of
1908.
A closing rush in Republican
votes fell short of overcoming
the Democratic lead-rolled up
in early returns from Montgom-
cry county.
Republican Majority Here
Garrett county gave the Republican
candidate majority of 965 votes, A.
Charles Stewart garnering 2,544
votes compared to 1879 for Mrs.
Byron. Mrs. Byron was considered to
have made an exceptionally good run
in this county which is registered Re-
publican practically three to one. Less
than 45 percent of the ones eligible to
vote cast their ballots.
Bond Issue Defeated
An overwhelming defeat was adj
ministered the school bond referen-
dunn measure for a new $250000
school at Oakland. Voters marked
their KS behind the against portion
of the ballot a total of 2,570 while
only 1913 persons were for the meas
ure. Even that portion of the county
from which Oakland high draws it's
students did not back the measure
solidly, and the other districts in the
county smothered the question, voting
almost solidly against it.
The four Oakland districts, Crellin
and Mt. Lake Park gave substantial
majorities for the bond issue.
Stewart carried every district but
four and tied one of those. Second
precinct of district 2, Friendsville;
Kempton and Vindex gave Mrs.
Byron majorities. Both candidates re-
ceived 105 votes in first precinct, dis
trict IA.
Stewart was really Frostburg's
'favorite son" as a glance at the re-
turns showed the eight polling places
in that city gave him an overwhelm-
ing majority of 1859 votes of the
2,819 ballots cast.
The official returns are being can
vassed today at the court house, but
the unofficial returns can be found
upon another page of this newspaper.

FARMERS TAKE PART in
DAIRY IMPROVEMENT DAY
Program Sponsored by Junior
Chamber of Commerce Last
Saturday Considered Successful
X. RUSH is BEST JUDGER

Dairy Improvement Day in Oakland
last Saturday was considered quite a
successful event, as farmers in I'M
usual numbers descended upon the
town. The affair was sponsored by
the Junior Chamber of Commerce.
Opening the program at II o'clock
was a parade of farm equipment, au-
tomobiles, tractors, etc, which was
followed by cattle judging contest
at the Community Park, formerly the
Helbig Grove, at the north edge of
town. Twenty-Five dollars in prizes
were awarded Kenneth Rush, Acct
dent, with a score of 200 points out
of possible 300, won first place, with
John T. Fike, Eglon, w. Va, second
and William Nicholson, Oakland,
third. Others placed as follows;
Homer Right, Lead Mine, W. Va,
fourth; Claude Stanton, Oakland,
fifth; Harland Stahl, Oakland, sixth;
Roger Fike, Eglon, seventh; Wendell
Umbel, Friendsville, eighth; William
Bittinger, Gormania, ninth; Sam
Ringer, Hutton, tenth; and Earl
Glass, Accident, eleventh.
Over fifty participated with j. A.
Conover, dairy specialist, University
of Maryland, the judge, assisted by
John H. Carter, county agent. Jerry
Heebink, University of West Virginia,
gave cattle judging demonstration,
pointing out to farmers what to look
for in good cattle. In the Judging con-
test three classes of Holsteins were
judged.
The object of the day was to en-
phasize dairy improvement in this
section. The production of milk in this
area is on the increase and since the
additional market for milk was estab-
lished here last fall there has been
much talk of dairy improvement both
by Oakland business men and farmers
in this entire area. The First National
and Garrett National Banks in Oak
land recently purchased a purebred
bull in the interest of diary improve
ment.
Merchants and business men CO.
operated in the program last Satur-
day. A dinner was held Friday night
at which a number of dairy people
attended.
A number of additional prizes were
awarded at Helbig's Mill by the Fair
mont Creamery company, Pittsburgh,

Cub Bear Attracts
Attention Saturday

G. A. Aronhalt, of Kempton, was
attracting much attention in Oakland
last Saturday, but the real reason was
the black bear cub which accompanied
him.
Aronhalt found two cubs in the
woods near Kempton about eight
weeks ago. He took them home and
when a later search failed to discover
their mother, he decided to keep them.
The one he brought to Oakland
Saturday appeared playful enough
and very tame. Aronhalt said the bear
accompanied him on his truck when
hauling props and seemed much at
tached to him and members of his
family.
