The BrOOkeville Academy
Continued from Paoe II

A list of the principals up to
1865 include Robert Stuart, Sam
uel Bumpstead, Moses Woodward,
Thomas Haggerty, George Biglow,
William Hill, M. C. Brooke, Eliza
Hall.
An early list of trustees was
made up of Thomas Davies, John
Hammond Riggs, Caleb Bentley,
William Dorsey, Ignacious Waters,
Thomas Riggs, David Newland, D.
L. House, A. D. Prettyman, Pro
lessor Burns and j. Milton Parkin-
son.
For years the early Mutual Fire
insurance Company, founded by
Edward Stabler of Sandy Spring,
used the second stcsy of the Acad-
envy building. During the late
war it housed the Red Cross Unit
for Surgical Dressings.
W'o Lnows wha' purpose this
venerable pile may serve in ,he
future? 1t has stood silent wit
ness during the War of 1912, when
the streets of this remote village
rang with the sound of marching
feet, and the clatter of horses
hoofs, when on that eventful day,
President Madison and his weary
party drew rein before Caleb Bent
ley's house, now owned by Will
Jones, to ask shelter for the night.
The old academy lived through
the bitterness of the War Between
the States and saw the Brookeville
lads go into the first World War,
and watched their sons march
away to the last world conflict.
BY 1868 the school grew larger
and was transferred to beautiful
place, which is described in an
early letter to the Baltimore Sun,
written by Mr.. f. J. Hall of
"Longwood", Brookeville, dated
1869:
Our new Academy is just com
pleted. 1t is fine four story stone
building, with a mansard roof
capable of accommodating about
40 boarders, situated on a lofty
omlrence, commanding a beautiful
view of the surrounding country
side. 1t is in charge of Mr.. Parkin-
son, a graduate of Cambridge
England, and Mr.. Coleman, grad
uate of the University of Virginia
Principal. Both gentlemen of ex
perience and success in teaching.
This newly acquired property o.
the Brookeville Academy once be
longed to, Thomas Riggs, who il
turn, obtained it from Thoma,
Bordley, who originally surveyed
and owned the tract of land which
he called "Bordley's Choice"
In 1909 this second Brookevillt
Academy building was taken owe
as county high school. 1t reached
its peak during the years 1912 t,
1914. In 1913 there were 16 pupil
in the graduating class alone. Th'
high school principals we're Julial
F. Walters of Montgomery County
Rexford B. Hartle, from HarforC
County, and last, Janney Hutton
of Brookeville.
Due to the county program o.
consolidation of schools, the higl
school in the Brookeville Academy
building was discontinued in 1917
However, a small grade school was
continued at, this location fol
: approximately four years, aftel
which the property was sold to thu
Alvords as a residence.
The place is now owned by DR.
Mark V. Ziegler, a national figure
in Public Health circles, who
changed the original name Of
"Bordley's Choice" to "Ziegler's
Choice"

Abnormal NoU
Innocent May Sprout Roots Because of Diet
By FREDERICK c. OTHMAN

@A~A@@~A~AS@N41
 London, May 23-(UP)-If a doc tor examined me today, he'd dis cover I am flesh and blood no long, CT, but a walking package of boiled cabbage, brussels sprouts and caun- flower.
 I have eaten in French, Polish Chinese, Bulgarian and British restaurants, ranging from Lyons tea shops to the Savoy and from the oldest pub to the newest dinner club. An authority on dining out in London is speaking, and it all adds up to sprouts. If I don't get home soon I'll take root.
 The ceiling price on 8 meal here is $1. That sounded reasonable un- til I tried it. The napkins cost ex- tra. Flowers on the table can't be looked at unless you pay. If there is a three-piece band, and there usu- ally is, you pay music charge. There is, of course, a service fee, and if you don't buy a bottle of wine in the snootier joints the waiter in claw-hammer coat will
