What gets into people? Sometimes they get mean
and noaccount wonder whether not there will
be any improvement in the human
For instance in recent days two things in particular
happened that just can't explain TO call plain cussed-
doesn't quite explain it. It's really than that and
those responsible ought to get darned good tanning.
AT the cemetery recently miserable soul went up
there and skinned the sod from the top of persons
The other day pesky thief broke the window of
automobile stole suit coat from senior boy who had just
graduated stole band uniform coat from of the boys
who had played that night at commencemenhen stuffed
the coat into fireplace and burned it.
This certainly tops other forms of cussedness that
this county any other county could well do without Such
dumping and garbage along the public highway in
front of someone's property-Tumng grave stones
playground equipment shelters for school bus children
failing to clean up picnic spot that created for the
free of the pubcshooting out street lights that
placed for the convenience and safety of citizens
There people, we have discovered, who work harder
trying living dishonesty than they would do
with honest to goodness job.
Our salvation is that these types of people in the
mnorty-maybe barring the non ceaner-uppers after
picnic
The solution? Maybe compulsory course of instruc
ton somewhere parents and they in turn drill plain
decency their offspring 1t might take years of effort
but wouldn't it be worth it?

Wheat Acreage
AllotrnentS For 1854
Crop Are Probable

Wheat acreage allotments will
probably be required for the crop
to be harvested in 1854, it was am
nounced by Dorsey Guard, chair
man of the Garrett County PIMA
committee.
Under normal conditions the
price of wheat is supported at 900
of parity and all producers are eli
gible for price support However,
when the available supply of wheat
becomes too great in relation to
the demand the law requires the
Secretary of Agriculture to put
acreage allotments into effect.
When this is done only those pro-
ducers who plant within their al
lotment are eligible for price sup
port. The Secretary will announce
prior to July l whether on not al
lotments will be required.
Although no official announce
ment has yet been made the sup
ply situation indicates that allot-
ments are almost certain. In view
Of this, preparations are already
being made to establish acreage al
lotments for wheat farms in this
county, Mr.. Guard stated. All
farms known to be producing wheat
have been contacted and data Sc
cured on which to base aIlotments.
If allotments are required one
will be established for all farms
that are known to have produced
wheat during the years 1851, 1852
and 1858. Other farms will not be
assigned allotments except upon
request.
Farms which did not produce
wheat during any of the years 1851,
1852 and 1858 but which plan to
grow wheat for harvest in 1854 are
called new wheat farms" June 26,
1858, has been established as the
final date on which new wheat
farms may request an allotment,
Mr.. Guard stated.

Bloodmobile Unit To
Be At Grantsville

The third visit of the Johnstown
Red Cross Bloodmobile unit to Gar
rett county for 1853, will be made
at Grantsvillc tomorrow, Friday,
June 10, from u o'clock noon I'M
til 6 o'clock
The unit will set up headquarters
at the Reformed church there, and
the workers will strive to obtain
1863 pints of blood from residents
of the Friendsville and Grantsville
areas.
Mrs. Erva Mickey is in charge of
the arrangements for the visit and
she is assisted by Mrs. Joseph f.
Fahey. Mrs. Grover c. Stemple,
Oakland, county chairman Of re-
cruitment, said the Grantsville
group had lined up a full schedule
if everyone appeared who had
promised. However, she said there
would he plenty of opportunity for
watkins" to give blood if they
appeared there any time during the
hours specified.
The Rotary club of Friendsville
has agreed to furnish cars to take
persons from that area to Grants
vile. They will be picked up at the
home of Mrs Earl Guard.
Mrs. Stemple said the unit would
visit Garrett county only five
times this year and because of that
it was necessary to combine certain
areas and to try to obtain a full
amount at each visit so as to meet
the desired quota. During the two
visits to Oakland this year the
bloodmobile unit received PIP pints,
80 in February and 113 in April.
Quite few prospective donors had
been turned down in February due
to colds and influenza. The quota
for the full year is S45 pints, based
on percentage Of population.
! 1t was stated that DR.. John
Whitehill, Meyersdale, who has Of
flee hours in Grantsville two or
three days each week, would give
his time while the unit is in
Grantsville, to assist the Johnstown
/ staff of doctors and nurses.
This will be the last visit of the
bloodmobile to the county until
September, it was announced.
