Him who has blessed and watched
over us through the years.
Our untitled orders, as of this
date, are Approximately per cent
under last year; current orders,
however, are less favorable. More
than ever, it is important that
everyone do his level best to help
us get more business. Our position
is no different than that of every
other business; we must supply an
equal or better product, at an equal
or better price, and in every other
way continue to justify the conf
dence of the trade, if we are to be
entrusted with their requirements.
''The fellowship hour instituted
last year met with such universal
approval, that we have continued it
in this years program. You will
enjoy renewing old friendships and
making new ones. We are proud of
the folks here this evening, as we'll
as the other members of the organi-
cation not present. We sincerely
trust the occasion will make for a
very pleasant evening.
Gas in other years, 1 want, in Bro
Their Johns behalf and my own, to
tell our associates and everyone of
you of our pride and satisfaction in
working with you and the some 900
other fellow workers. l wish to
express the appreciation of the man
agement, for what your efforts and
loyalty have meant to our contribu-
ton to worldwide industrial pro-
gress, and to the happiness and we'll
being of the community and the ma
ton. We can continue to set our
sights high, without fear of disap-
pointment."
An impressive program of enter
tainment featured the "Helen-Booth
Novelties" a talented group of ar
lists and musicians from State Col

Hood Dell; and the Helen-Booth
Quintette.

The ballroom was brilliantly de
corated with beautiful autumn flow
ers and clusters of tall burning can
dies. A single carnation was placed
at the plate of each member and
guest. White carnations, worn as

favorable than last year.

gular monthly meeting of the Mayor
and Council held in the City Hall on
Thursday night:
Bibles Presented
The HagerstoWn Chapter of Gil
deems international, who presented
Bibles to the Board of County Com
missioners two weeks ago, made a
similar presentation to the Mayor
and Council.
In simple, but impressive cere-
mony, a beautiful white, cloth cover
ed Bible was presented to the Mayor
and Council, and pocket editions of
the New Testiment were presented
to the Mayor and to each member of
the Council.
Following the presentation, Mayor
Winslow F. Burhans thanked the
Delegates on behalf of the admins
tration for their generous gifts.
New Grandstand for Stadium
The members of the Hagerstown
Field Athletic Association appeared
before the Mayor and Council with
a request that, during their 1854
budget discussions, they would give
serious consideration to the erecting
of new grandstand at the Munich
pal Stadium to replace the present
grandstand, which is now over
twenty years old.
Roy A. Letter, principal spokesman
for the delegation, pointed out that
it was necessary, during the 1858
baseball season, to close the grand
stand because one section of it was
infested with termites. He added
that, although temporary repairs
were made, the wooden structure is
still in very bad condition and will
present a definite hazard, as long as
it is in use.
He then called on Samuel Greena-
walt, former city engineer, to give
the Mayor and Council some facts
regarding the building of a complete
new, all steel grandstand.
Mr.. Greenawalt stated that, at the
request of the Field Athletic Asso-
citation, he had contacted the firm
that furnished the all steel third base
bleechers and had been advised
that complete new all steel grand
stand, seating 1900 (the present
grandstand seats less than 10000
could be delivered in Hagerstown
for an estimated $31, 500. The grand
stand would be rooted, a press box
provided, and there would be backs
on all the seats.
He then told the Mayor and Coun-
Gil that it would cost approximately
$18,500 to erect the grandstand and
also provide adequate rest rooms
and Office space under it, making a
total cost of approximately $4,000.
Henry Bester, who, as a member
of the Field Athletic Association had
charge of maintenance at the sta
dunn for several years, stated that
the present grandstand has been
patched and re-patched and that in
his opinion, any furthur money
spent on its maintenance would be a

Traffic Committee

Richard Grumbacher, member of
the city's Traffic Committee, present
ed number of suggestions for the
betterment of traffic conditions in
Hagerstown that include the mark
ing off of traffic lanes on all the one
way streets, and several changes in
bus stops and loading and unloading
zones.
After a full discussion regarding
the report, the Mayor and Council
voted to refer it to the Board of Pub
lie Works for their immediate action.
The Traffic Committee, without
any fanfare, is doing really thor
ugh job that will result in the better
movement of traffic throughout the
entire city.

waste of the city's funds. J. v.
Jamison Jr., Chairman of the Asso-
citation told the Mayor and Council
that he was amazed to find that
an ADEQUATE and fire-proof stadium
could be erected for such low sum
and he strongly urged that it be
built.
Two other members of the Asso-
citation, Judge Joseph D. Mish and
Ellsworth Roulette both spoke
in support of the proposal and they
both pointed out that it would be
simple matter to spread the pay
ments for the grandstand over
two or three-year period.
During the discussion, it was
brought out that a great deal of the
lumber in the present grandstand
came from the grandstand original
ly in the ballpark of the old Blue
Ridge league and it was further
pointed out that the grandstand was
put up in the present stadium at no,
cost to the city. The money came,
from the funds of the old Blue
Ridge League, plus the selling to the
public of boards for the stadium, at
a price of $100 per board
Finally, the Field Athletic Asso-
citation members pointed out that
while it was not absolutely certain
yet, whether there would be organic
ed baseball in Hagerstown in 1854,
everything pointed to its being con-
tinued, and it was also pointed out
that the stadium could be used for
many athletic events for the better
ment of the community.
The Mayor and Council showed a
real interest in the proposed plan
and assured the delegation that it
would receive their earnest consider
alton in the setting-up of the 1854
budget.

By FTonk Colbl

n
@. In a recent news story this
sentence occurs: The situation
is worsening. Please comment on,
"Worsening."
A. The sentence is correct. ITO
worsen' is a verb which means
ito make worse"
@. In telephoning should one,
ask to speak ITO" or with" a
person?
A. One speaks ''to" an audi
ence: but one speaks with
(converses With a friend or as
sociate.
|. Q. Is it ever correct to say Il
shall be glad to loan you the
money!"
A. It used toVbe considered in
correct to use loan as a verb.
This distinction was made:
Loan" was used as q noun, as,
I asked for loan; the verb
lend" and the past tense was
"lent," as: / shall lend you the
money; he lent me the money.
In today'S usage, however. loan
has almost superseded the verb
lend, and authorities sanction
"I shall loan you The money; the
bank loaned me the money"
@. How about equally as
good?"
A. 1t is redundant. Omit "as. I"
Better, Equally good.
@. Should one say "the two
first chapters or "the first two
chapters?"
A. There can be only one
first" Better say: The first two
chapters.
@. What's wrong with TITS
only a little ways further?"
A. There are two errors here.
Little ways, longer ways" and
such misuses of way" are dia-
lectal. Further" is reserved to
mean time, as ''let me think
about it further" Farther is pre-
ferred for spatial distance. Bet
ter say: It's only a little WAY
FARTHER.

Durkin resigned, according to

man Of the Democratic National

that one of the issues the Demo
