Shron. 26: 8 and 5. Sixteen years
old was Uzziah when he began to
reign, and he reigned fifty and two

visions of God: and as long as he
sought the Lord, God made him
prosper. Correlative from the Text

progress slowly for fear of being
thought ridiculous. They are slaves
of fashion, pride, and sense. Some
time we shall learn how Spirit, the

POLAR BEAR INSIGNIA

The distinguishing mark of the
Ileathernecks of the Iceland force
is the white polar bear on their
shoulders, but why?
The only polar bear anyone has
seen in Iceland is the animal in the
Reykjavik Zoo, and the Army, on
arriving in Iceland, developed a
shoulder insignia which features a
volcanic island rising out of a sea
of blue, and heraldic device resign
ed by the Army's General Charles
H. Bonesteel himself.
But the Marines continued to
sport that polar bear, and they
brought out documents to prove its
appropriateness. No less than four
of the Icelandic counties have the
polar bear in one position or an
other as the chief characterize of
their county seals.
The British were the first foreign
troops to occupy Iceland and they
designed the Iceland garrison polar
bear insignia
When the Marines arrived last
summer the General officer in COM
mand of the British force invited
the Marine Corps commanding of
fcer to use the same shoulder
patch for his troops. A few days
later enough polar bears to equip
the entire force arrived in the Ma
rine Corps Commanding Generals
office, and the Marines have been
wearing them ever since.
If anyone doubts the propriety
of the white polar bear, let him re-
port to the Office of the Command
ing General of Marines in Iceland,
and look at his collection of Ice
land county seals which use the
rampant polar bear.

THE WAY
OUT
By
Rev. Charles Milton Griffeth

DO you know how to get out of
Purgatory?
The Purgatory 1 have in mind,
however, is not the one which some
declare await the sinner beyond
death. 1t is that depressing real
ization that you have committed
sin against God.
The way out of such Purgatory
of the conscience is impressively
symbolized by Dante. He describes
how from the lower regions of the
darkness of sin, he found his way
up into the glorious light of re-
ldemption.
The first of the three steps by
which he was enabled to escape
was one of white marble. $50 pol
ished smoothe," he narrates, that
it mirrowed me therein as l ap-
peared." What is he really saying
Is it not that the first step out OF
sense of condemnation for sin is a
realization of ones own sinfulness
Fortunate indeed is the man who
can see himself as God sees him.
1t was upon this step that the
Prodigal Son stood when "he came
to himself"
The second step that lead Dante
out of Purgatory was a dark and
rugged one. And it was cracked in
its length and breadth. What a
picture of a heart broken by a real
ization of its sinfulness, and filled
with the contrition of repentance!
1t was upon this step that the Pub
lican stood when, in the Temple, he
prayed: God be merciful to me a
sinner!"
The third step was of porphyry
80 flaming red as blood that
spurts from vein." This can re-
fer only to personal acceptance of
the bleeding heart of Christ as the
God-accepted atonement for your
sins. 1t was upon this step that
the Apostle Paul stood when he ex-
claimed: "Who loved me and gave
Himself for mel"
This is the way out of the dark
ness of the purgatory of a guilty
conscience. Climb up these steps
and you will come out into the
glorious sunlight of the forgiveness
of God.

To The Voters of Garrett County:

Why does not Lawrence Fraley stick to the facts in
his campaign for Senator?
am informed that Mr. Fraley is taking credit for i'm
provement of the streets in Oakland and for increased
wages to town employees. not in this campaign but
feel that in justice and fairness things should be
Strengthened out.
In the first place. the streets of Oakland improved
during the time that Grover c. Stempe served as Mayor
and | served as Chairman of the Street Committee.
Wages were increased my recommendation and it
the first time that town employees given living
wage am told that since Mr. Fraey started his campaign
that he recommended another increase that he would
have something to talk about The real increase
not brought about by him. although he had plenty of
portuny to help the working man, but did not do it.
Mr. Fraley is telling the aboring that he is with
him. | have been hard working all my life and have
employed at good living wages for many years and
know something about the workingmans problems.
Mr. Fraley has made many promises, but has he made
them good?

Taxpayers of Garrett County
TAKE NOTICE!

1t has been brought to my attention that the
present Board of County Commissioners are making
a denial of some of the exorbtant expenditures of
wish to enlighten the taxpayers on few of these
expenditures
During the term of the present Board of County
Commissioners they have paid to Wooden and Ben
son, Auditors, over $23, 10000; to Attorneys over
$1,000 Alphabetically all of this to Attorneys out
side of Garrett County.
If there should be complete check of the records
there may be more additional "hidden', eXpend-
lures paid to these parties out of the various levies.
The above expenditures are matter of record in
the Court House and can be investigated by any
citizen wishing to do
Have you taxpayers ever questioned who is pay
ing the expense of the present campaign for re-eec
ton of these County Commissioners for automobiles,
gasoline etc?
Has anyone ever checked with their Road Office
to see how much money the Commissioners have re-
ceived direct and disbursed by them | requested
statement of this as taxpayer and was refused it.
Do you taxpayers know that there is no record of
these receipts and disbursements other than that in
Road Office, and that the County Commissioners are
not under one cent Of bond?
No doubt they will, at the last minute, bring out
another yellow sheet, Tor some other color printed
on the Monograph machine purchased by these
County Commissioners and paid for by the tax
payers of Garrett County, which machine the Grand
Jury compelled them to present before that Honor
able Body, but which has never been used for Coun-
ty purposes other than trying to discredit me, but |
am willing to stand on my record.
Perhaps they may be aided in this by Wooden and
Benson, trying to save their face There has been
lot in the recently about this facesaving Hitler
and Hirohito have been using propaganda for that
purpose.
Look at the ability of these auditors: In the re-
port of Levy for 1912 made up by Wooden and Ben
son. on page 49, Of the 1912 Levy book you will note
an error Of $4,000 in their multiplication State
taxes. On page 20, error in addition 1912 'reve-
nue. of $27 000.11
This is not an error of the printer as thew NAV
try to make it appear has been checked and re-
checked with the proof delivered by them to the
printer. Some Auditors.
Oh yes; l was indicted by the Grand Jury on
charge concocted by them, but was also exonerated
by the Court. These Commissioners were also in
dicted by the Grand Jury and they have not as yet
been eXonerated of the charge against them.
If you will check over the Auditors reports you
will find other errors, have only called your at
tenton to few.
What does this mean to you?
Two members of the present Board of County
Commissioners running for reelection and the third
member running for Treasurer.
If their scheme should work, they would have
everything their own way.

Timely Deaths

More grandmothers are dying
every day-in western Maryland thar
ever before, if we are to believe the
autoists in Baltimore who ask for just
a little bit more gas" enough to get
to the funeral service.
Filling station operators in Balti-
more have reported that many motor
lists come to them every day with
tales of ''tragedy."% Always they are
grandmothers or aunts in Oakland
Cumberland, Frostburg, or from a
town far enough from Baltimore to
necessitate the purchase of more gas
oline than rationing allows.
1t is the same old story under a
different name. Office boys used to
use that gag to get off from work
so they could attend big league
baseball game There's nothing new
under the sun.
A full-page in the rotogravure sec
ton of The Sun of two weeks ago
showed how people were spending
Sunday, since they couldn't go for a
ride in their automobiles. There were
several suggestions as to what to do,
but going to church and Sunday
school was not even mentioned. The
large newspapers could lead in bring
ing more people to worship services,
by pointing out this necessity to the
masses.
More Of it will be necessary before
this war is over, and more of it will
be in evidence as casualty lists in
crease.

Dear Sir;-Quoting the final para
graph of your column in a recent is
sue of The Republican, ".Most of you
know Garrett county pretty well. Is it
similar to Baltimore county or isn't
it?"
| should say, with reference to
nickel machines, that, population con-
sidered, Garrett county is perhaps as
well supplied with pin-ball machines
as any similar settled area in the
United States. | believe, roughly esti-
mating, that there is one machine in
this county to each one hundred peo-
pie.
If everyone would study nickel ma
chimes the way they study a new suit
or book before buying, to be sure
they get their moneys worth there
would be no nickel machines. School
children wouldn't feed their nickels
into pin-ball machines and go back to
school at lunch time with no nourish-
ment except the memory of few at
tractive, brilliantly-colored lights.
All gambling is business-the Gus
toner is the Sucker" And that goes
for everything from penny punch
boards to horse racing.
There are 25O,OOO gambling devices
