Plan Scout Course
For Cub Leaders

Announcement of a course of in
struction for cub scout leaders was
made at a meeting of the Deep
Creek district scout committee ON
Tuesday evening.
The first session will be on Fri
day, November -, at the City Hall,
beginning at 1870. Dates Of the
other three or four meetings will
be decided at that time.
The course is for cub leaders,
den mothers, cub committeeman,
interested parents and other inter
ested persons. Willis V. Smith,
scout executive, said there might
be communities where clubbing does
not now exist where persons are
thinking Of such an organization,
and suggested that this would be
good time to learn about the
program. The clubbing program is
geared for boys from eight to
eleven years, inclusive, prior to
their boy scout period.

cording to The New York Times
story.
The Light Brigade, in two lines,
rode down the Valley of Death
the Valley Of Hell. The Redoubts,
manned now by the Russians,
opened fire and the revamped Rus
sian army ON the north joined in.
The first line was broken and in
bloody gaps horses and men
spilled over the valley floor, dead.
The second line followed, riding
into the slaughter without fear or
thought of death-only to carry
out an order. They fell, too, or
most Of them. William Howard
Russell, the first war correspond
emit, who wrote for the London
Times, reported: Went into action
strong-G07; Returned from action
lbs; Loss-409.
James Brock came out of the
war with a captaincy. went back
to his home in England and there
he carried on his business of tailor
ing. Many older people here re-
member his telling them about his
business in England. How Queen
Victoria commissioned INN to make
suits for the little Prince of Wales
Cater King Edward VIII After
he moved to Oakland he continued
his trade of tailoring, and the late
Mr.. Ernest Liller learned his trade
from him. He always dressed in a
Prince Albert coat and always car
ried silver-headed cane, very
striking in appearance. He and his
wife are buried in the Oakland
cemetery. His monument is a sim
pie one, only stating Capt. James
Brock-born March 10, 1886; died
Feb. 10, 1921. And on the other
side it reads, Mary, wife of Capt.
James Brock, born March -, 1849;
died July ?, 1909.
The New York Times states
many "firsts" came out of the Cri-
mean War. Florence Nightingale
was a battlefield nurse. 1t was the
first war covered by a war cores
pondent, William Russell 1t was
the first war covered by a war
photographer. But the two names
that are most familiar, and Curl
ously enough are identified with
tailoring, are Lord Raglan and
Lord Cardigan. Both were men
from whose names we get the Rag
Ian sleeve and the Cardigan, or
loose jacket or sweater.
I'd like to think that perhaps
since our Captain, Mr.. Brock, was
so familiar with the two gentle
men, since Lord Cardigan was his
commander Of the Light Cavalry
Brigade and Lord Raglan was the
commander in chief of the army
perhaps Capt. Brock, himself, de-
signed and tailored the very ar
ticles of clothing and named them
for his beloved senior officers.

Citizens Clean
Up Bayard Area

Volunteer fjremen and citizens
of Bayard were busy this week
cleaning up after the flood last
Friday.
The all-day rain sent Buffalo
Creek and the Potomac river ON a
rampage, flooding the west end Of
town. Flood state level reached a
peak of six feet.
Children from the elementary
school were transferred to the high
school by fircmen and citizens, and
buses took the children home early
when it was feared that the bridge
connecting the east and west end
of town would be washed away.
Huge trees, houlders and other de-
bris washed down Buffalo Creek,
Families in the west end of town
were out of their homes by night

Two Elderly Brothers
EVicted From Home
In 1o-Year Dispute
By the Assoeioted Press

LAPEER, Mich, April g.
Nearly two score State troopers
and sheriff's officers moved in on
Fort Ziegenhardt" at dawn yes
terday and forcibly carried evic-
tion-f1ghting Chris and Paul
Ziegenhardt from their farm
home.
The eviction was executed sud-
denly and secretly to avoid the
possibility of resistance by fell
low farmers in this rural Mich
1gan thumb" area.
The elderly Ziegenhardt broth
ers have Steadfastly refused for
19 years to pay a $3.50 assess
ment on their $4,000 farm levied
after a farmers mutual insurance
association went bankrupt. They
we're evicted three years ago, but
irate neighbors moved them back
in the same day.
Chris. IS, and Paul, 73, had
erected a sand bag and timber
fort to defy eviction and had
