Thanks to the artistic skill of
Presbyterian minister's wife
Brookeville, Md. will be me-
morialized for possibly the most
notable event in its history-the
overnight stay of President
James Madison on his flight
from Washington during the
War of 1912.
| Mr.. Madison arrived at the
hamlet at 9 pm. August 26,
1914, the day after 1000 British
regulars occupied and burned
the Capital City.
His host that night was Caleb
Bentley, the villages first post
master. It remains for the pres
ent postmaster, the 23d, Wilton
j. Boswell. to see that the occa-
sion will be fittingly observed
at special ceremonies tomorrow
Painting Depicts Arrival.
Highlight of the observance
will be unveiling of an oil paint
ing by Mrs. James P. Kerr, wife
of the minister of Boyds tMd.)
Presbyterian Church.
Mr.. Boswell had tried for years
to interest some artist in doing
a painting of the Presidents
arrival before he learned of Mrs.
Kerr's talent and persuaded her
to paint it.
Mrs. Kerr. who studied art
Tor four years at the Maryland
Institute, Baltimore, and gives
private art lessons in her spare
time. set to work on the Madison
project about three weeks ago.
To make the picture as ac-
curate as possible, Mrs. Kerr
had to make several trips to
Brookeville and look up old
historical records. She became
so interested in the project that
she interrupted a landscape she
was doing of Sugar Loaf Noun
tain.
Mr.. Boswell has planned a
rather full program at Brooke
vile tomorrow with the CO.
operation of the Montgomery
County Christian Endeavor
Union, of which he is president.
Village Tours Planned.
Tours of the village have been
planned to show where American
troops were encamped when
Madison arrived and where Gov
ernment records were stored
during the exodus from Wash
ington.
The Montgomery County Sing
ing Convention will perform at
a song service at Z pm. in the
Methodist Church hall.
At 8 pm. Mr.. Boswell will

make a saving III the pay
ment of premiums if they are
able to pay them in advance on a

Veterans who are able to pay
premiums in advance in this
fashion viii have a reduction

Paying premiums every three
months. SIX months or twelve
months has another definite adj
vantage over monthly payments,
VA SAID, IN that there IS much
less chance of the veteran over

March Steel Output
Estimated al Record
OF 10 Million Tons
BY the A..oeie,sd Press

CLEVELAND. Mar. 30.-Steel
production in March win hit 10
million tons for the first time
in history, Steel Magazine said
yesterday.
The trade magazine reported
the output Of steel for castings
and ingots has exceeded 100 per
cent throughout the month, but
declared high production cannot
take all Of the credit. It pointed
out that expansion Of the in
dustry also has played a large
part.
Steel said the mills ran to 10
per cent Of capacity last week
and turned out 2,277, 900 net tons
OF steel for ingots and castings.
Regardless Of how strong the
third quarter demand is for
steel, operations will be lent
some support from orders the
mills will be unable to fill in the
second quarter and will have to
carry into the third" the weekly
summary continued.
The automobile industry was
listed by the magazine as one
consumer still pushing hard to
get steel" A strengthening de-
maad from household appliance
makers and farm implement
manufacturers also was noted.
