yesterday caused an estimated $15,-
900 damage to the home Of Thomas
M Leibig, Layhill farmer.

grandfather were among the early
settlers 4of the county. The road.
on which the farm Is located and
which connects Layhill and Coles
Vile. is named after the Bonifants.
Although the fire was restricted to
the top floor, much damage to furr1i-
ture and other family possessions

smoke and water. The damage esti-
mate was placed by Chief Rowland
Stabler, of the Sandy Spring Volun-
teer Fire Department, first unit to

ter, Sally Leibig. secretary for the

companies which responded in an
swer to three alarms and one
special alarm were BurtonSville,
Kensington, Hillandale and Silver

West VHginions
| Revive Plans to
Tour Own State
Spseiol Dispoteh 10 The Ssor

MART1NSBURG. w. Va, April II
The Eastern Panhandle Associa-
ton has revived its prewar program
to acquaint West Virginians with
West Virginia.
The idea is simply this:
Men from this part of the State
get together, arrange automobile
tours lasting several days and visit
as many parts of the State as pos
sible. Before the war, some 200 men
took tours covering 5000 miles of
the States roads and visited every
city with population of more than
5000.
This year the Chamber of Com
merce and the Junior Board of Trade
are arranging visits to Morgan
town. Clarksburg, Elkins and the
South Branch Valley. The idea was
by the Rev. John Ward
Brown, Baptist minister here.
