WYE MONTGOMERY!
But Mr.. Briner Says
Come On-a My House

Charles Briner, executive secretary
of the Mountain Top Chamber of
Commerce, Oakland, Garrett County,
has asked Governor McKeldin to pro-
claim the period October IL through
October 81 as Autumn Glory Time"
in the area.
He has promised visitors to that
section of the Free State Symptom
les and vistas of color unequaled any
where"
To that, the State Department of
Information adds the area is already
nationally famous as scenic resort
area and numbers among its attrac-
tions the only Virgin Hemlock forest
in the Eastern United States, and
number of State Forests and Parks,
most popular of which is Swallow
Falls"
AS matter of fact, the State De-
partment of Information comes right
out and says, Jack Frost has begun
his annual masterpiece on the three
thousand foot peaks of Garrett
County. So far, the Master Painter
has splashed only little yellow and
light red against the verdant green
of the Western Maryland peaks, but
he is expected to complete this years
canvas within the next three weeks"
And to this and Garrett County,
too, this reporter would like to say,
"How can you be so sure-and what's
the matter-you've never been to
Montgomery-yet?"
