Fire Destroys Barn
At Fairgrounds

A fire which broke out at the Fair
grounds on Monday afternoon des-
troyed a 32-stall horse barn on thhe
property, as well as the big cow barn.
Although a number of horses were
stabbed in the barn at. the time the
fire broke out, none of them were
touched by the flames, although one
was injured when it ran into a bar
bed wire fence.
The fire, while it did not cause a
heavy financial loss, was particular
ly serious, coming at this time, since
it will reduce the number of stalls
available for the annual race meet
ing which begins on August 3. It
would, however, have been far more
serious had it not been for the fact
that the Fair. Board has just com
pleted the erection of two new barns,
with total of 80 new stalls.

Troop % Enjoys
An Evening Hike

The Scouts of Troop SO went on
an evening hike from Pennsylvania
Avenue to the Fountain Head Coun-
try Club last week, following the
trail beside the railroad tracks.
On reaching their destination they
were given permission by the Scout
master, Mr.. Ken H. Williams, to
roam along the banks of a small
creek nearby. Returning to the camp
site, they heard some thrilling stories
from the Assistant Scoutmaster, T.
Hopewell, that conferred around
some of the things he did and saw
when he was a bronco buster.
Upon returning to town, the troop
stopped at the home of Mrs. Davis,
the Den Mother of the Troops Cub
Pack, where they were given in
structions in making trail signs. The
Troop was then dismissed with the
Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag and
the repeating of the Scout Oath and
Law.

Army Enlistnents
Are Still Booming

Local Army and Air Force Off
Gals announced last week, that en-
listments for the Regular Army are
still rising steadily. With the en-
listment of nine more men on July
7, the total for the month of July
had reached 81, two of whom were
local Hagerstown area men.
The two local men enlisting were:
Irving D. Lindsay, Jr., 141 w.
Franklin ST., who enlisted for two
years in the Regular Army UnaS-
signed; and Elmer L. Manspeaker,
Ri. 6, who enlisted for three years
in the Corps of Engineers.
The reasons projected by Army
officials for soaring enlistments are:
a high rate of pay; educational OPP
portunities; the chance to learn a
trade; and travel opportunities. The
threat of the draft seems to be a
secondary reason in almost every
case. A continuous poll is being
taken to ascertain the approximate
number of draft threat enlistees.

Prpzan, chairman of the ticket COM
mittee, and it is fully expected that
at least 500 tickets will be sold.
The entertainment committee is
now busy arranging for an orchestra
to provide music for dancing, and
it is possible that they will secure
a hillbilly band for the occasion, as
so many people delight in square
dancing, and it is thought that this
will take care of those who would
rather dance than go swimming or
play golf.
All indications point to the fact
that it will be one of the most sue
cessful picnics in the history of the
bureau.

AeEOOKH&G
AND

By Ellen Hagedorn

Do you suppose that there
have ever been a brother and
sister who did not tease one
another, or consistently argue
back and forth no matter how
trivial or inconsequential the
issue?
The older child usually holds
the whip for a few years, until
suddenly the poor, little har-
assed younger child turns and
finds words, both forceful and
appropriate, to use against his
tormentor.
John has always been pleas
ant asy-going child, mild man
nered and agreeable Ellen
Louise realized this and was
quick to take advantage of it.
But now her brother has dis
covered a bit of sarcasm in his
own makeup and is ready with
a spicy retort to her belittling
remarks.
It becomes most annoying to
listen to this ping pong game of
words which usually concludes
with the idiom, Il don't need
your two centsl
Now we are trying an ex-
pertinent. For every remark
such as that, the two cents,
in hard cash are to go into the.
