1000 NEW VOTERS
QUALIFY THIS
YEAR

With the election less than
month away, the political CAM
paign appears to be going on quiet
ly. The candidates and their
staffs are working steadily, but
no unusual heat appears on the
surface
Registration of new voters was
completed last Saturday. The
leaders in both parties are in sub
stantial agreement that some
where in the neighborhood Of
1000 new registrants are qualified
to vote on November 6. Many Of
the new voters are more than 81
years Of age and apparently have
not cared to get themselves ready
to vote in past elections.
Both parties, it is understood,
are trying to get their absent voe
ers to cast ballots. Reports from
usually reliable sources are to
the effect that upward of 800
absentee votes are sin the bag.
There are probably 1000 persons
on the polltax lists who are out
of the county this year
Whatever activities may be 60
ing on, most observers agree that
there is little likelihood of the
political pot coming to boil this
year.

OF
All
Things!
By E. Fl. B.

Montgomery (Junior) Kelly,
one of our leg men, brings inter-
esting tidings from Bartlick His
information is to the effect that
William Howard and Lawrence
Hicks have acquired the proper
ty on which Swift operated his
silver mine. They have employed
a lawyer to make their title clear
and to record it. Montgomery says
that no doubts dwell in the minds
of Hicks and Howard and that
they are as certain as men can
be of earthly things that they
have the exact place from which
Swift mined the precious metal.
And in the same breath Ayers
Short tells us that one Ellie Can
trell has map locating the lost
treasure somewhere within the
watershed of Bowl Camp. The
map was bequeathed to Cantrell
by his grandfather, a blind seer
OF mere 1902 years of age. A le-
gend goes with the map telling of
500 bar of silver hidden near
the mine
Decidedly, these stories call for
further investigation. AS soon as
Corbett and I shall have located
and studied the sites of certain
tragic episodes of the Hatfield
Mccoy war on Blackberry, this
matter of the lost mine shall have
my attention again.
y Y
1t also appears that there is a
witch doctor" on Lick Fork. His
power to overcome evil spells is
so well known that his services
are in almost constant demand.
Another superstition comes to
light. Corbett Hamilton asked Al
bert Stone to lend him knife
to do some job or other about the
produce stand Albert opened the
knife before handing it over. Hav
ing finished the work, Corbett,
not to be outdone in politeness,
closed the blade and offered it to
Albert eff you don't mind" Stone
said, "open it and then reach it to
me. There may not be anything
in the old saying, but I'd rather
not take it closed"
But we want to add that this
is not told to show how supersti-
tious a mountaineer is. There are
probably more superstitions to
one block in New York than there
are in all Of Dickinson County.

the South Ward may be overhaul

Handy Farm Ideas

SHOP HINTS

HERE IS a handy hit or two you
will find helpful in your shop and
bench work. When you wish to
measure accurately the distance
across a gap or open space like a
wide door which is wider than the
length of your measure, hold two
rulers or yard sticks together and
adjust them so they touch both
sides. and you can get the exact

head lap is II inches, column A, and
the width of the single is 10 inches,
column c, the dotted line shows
that 10 shingles will be needed per
square. A square" is 10 feet by 10
feet, or 100 square feet. Thus, if the
area of your roof is 1000 square feet
you will need 100 shingles because
there are 10 squares in 1000 square
feet.
One question that is often asked
is, 'What is meant by head lap?"
Head lap is the number of inches of
any course of shingles covered by the
following third course of shingles.
Thus, if the exposure is inches, and
if the single is 20 inches long, the
head lap would be inches. In other
words, you can get the head lap by
multiplying the exposure in inches
by 2 and subtracting the product
from the length of the single.
The reason why head lap is used
in the figuring is to remind users of
its Importance. There always must
be some head lap. Slate shingles are
usually figured on basis of at least
3 inches head lap. Without head lap
you will have leakage. Be sure that
the head lap is sufficient.

Bulgaria Red Disobedience
Admitted in Official PAPER
BY the Associated Press

VIENNA, July 26.-The comm
form journal admits that some
Communist leaders in Bulgaria
have refused to obey orders and
says that such things cannot be
tolerated"
The editorial in the official
organ of the Moscow-led Comm
form bo!stered reports reaching
here that Bulgaria's Community
Party is widely split and that the
peasants in that Russian satellite
are in almost open rebellion.
Western reports say the crisis
in Bulgaria resulted from too rapid
collectivization of farms. These
reports claim many local Com
munists sided with the dis
possessed farmers and failed to
carry out the party's program.
The editorial in the latest issue
of the journal to reach Vienna
quoted Bulgarian Premier Vulko
ChervenAov as saying there are
still quite a few party leaders who
are reluctant" to carry out orders.
1t added that such things cannot
be tolerated."

Labor Disputes Keep
$4,000 Idle in Pair Of
Detroit Auto Plants
BY the Associoted Press

DETROIT, July 26.-The jobs
of $4,000 auto workers were all
wrapped up in dispute today.
This included the month-old
strike or lockout" issue at Hud-
son and a private union fight as
well as a bout with management
at Chrysler.
The former bore on 10000
workers, the latter on $4,000.
Hudson accused the CLIO United
Auto Workers of striking in vio-
lation of their contract.
At the same time, rank-and-
filers of JAW Local at Chrys-
ler's Dodge main plant defied or
ders from the local leadership to
quit wildcat strike.
"Speedup" Charged.
Production rates were involved
in both disputes. UnionistS have
charged "speedup." Arrangements
have denied it.
After Hudson workers stayed
away from the plant yesterday.
management demanded that the
JAW order the men back.
r. G. Waldron, Hudson vice
president in charge of industrial
relations. said the dispute was
caused by a comparatively few"
employees.
Mr.. Waldron said these men
had refused to cooperate in job
time studies, forcing layoffs.
For 80 successive days Hudson
had sent home its 10000 produc-
ton workers when cars piled up
on the assembly lines. The union
said a "speed-up" was the cause
and charged contract violation
and lockout"
Dodge Workers Walk Out.
Yesterday JAW local 154 put
into effect policy of not going
to work until Hudson makes jobs
available "in good faith" The
union insisted this was not
strike.
Sixteen hundred trim workers
at ChryslerS Dodge main plant
walked out again yesterday in an
unauthorized strike. This led to a
layoff of more than $4,000 others.
In walking out, the strikers
ignored the president of Local 3.
Art Grudzen. who had asked
them to remain.
The firing Of two men for fail
ing to meet production rates is
at the bottom of the dispute.

$4,000 From Polio
Campaign Returned
To Montgomery County

A sizeable total OF the half a
million dollars contributed in the
1851 March of Dimes Campaign
has been returned to Montgomery
County, according to Miss Cath
crime C. Gaule, State representa-
tive of the National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis. Fifty-per-
cent of the total remained in the
State and SOC went to National
Headquarters, she explained.
Montgomery County has re-
ceived $4,000 for emergency care
of polio patients. "Patient care"
Miss Gaule said, accounts for the
empty treasures of these three
counties. We are more grateful
than ever to the generous people
of Maryland when we must meet
emergencies such as these. The
National Foundation maintains its
emergency fund for just such pur-
poses, and it is good to know we
can call on it when we are in

can it be that "Chick" went

younger sisters school? Both he
and DR.. Bonifant are local boys
and it is heartwarming to see them
making good in their neighborhood
hospital.
Do you know that our present
State Board of Health does not
have a county man on it? We
learned recently that DR.. Bird had
been replaced, after serving 20
years. Surely it was not because
he is a Democrat-for the Gov
ernor not two months ago told us
himself how grateful he was to
Montgomery County Democrats.
DR.. Bird, general practitioner as
we'll as a surgeon for over forty
years-a country doctor of national
prominence, had much to con-
tribute to the State Board. Who
cares what a doctors politics are
if he knows his medicine? Mont
gomery County is certainly proud
of having had DR.. Birds services
so many years. Remember Reuben
Brigham's story "He Gave Us Our
County HospitaW-that's the way
We all feel.

Young Ladies To
Assist Nurses At
County Hospital

Seven young ladies in dark blue
uniforms and white aprons, began
duties on Monday as Nurses AS
sistants at Montgomery County
General Hospital With vacation
days ahead, Mrs. Marion Green,
supervisor of nurses, realizing the
extra work occurring when one of
the staff of eight nurses is away,
decided to teach class of genuine
ly interested high school girls the
fundamentals of practical nursing,
in order that they might be of
some assistance in the hospital
during the summer months.
The girls were taught a total of
fifteen hours, Mrs. Green ex-
planned, and displayed much in
terest and enthusiasm. At least
four of them, she ventures, will
continue their nursing career.
The Assistants will make beds,
arrange flowers, put. patients to
bed, answer lights and perform
other relatively simple, but helpful
duties. The regular nurses already
agree that "they are big help"
Mrs. Green stated.
Robin Adair, Manor Club;
Jeanne Ayres, Rockville; Elizabeth
Dallam, Sandy Spring; Doris
Powell, Ednor; Jean Tibbitts,
Manor Club; Debby Stabler, Spen-
cerville: and Theresa Austin OF
Cecilton are those who began their
duties on Monday. All but Miss
Austin are pupils Of Sherwood
High School.

hospital since March, 1850, is
graduate Of st. Francis Hospital
in Wilmington, Del. She is from
