COUNTRY FLAVOR

Year is maturing. Apples are
redding on the bough and toma-
toes hand in red clusters. Acorns
are plump in their cups and
beechnuts are waiting for black
frost. Toward late afternoon as
shadows begin to bivouac in the
valleys, one feels a chilling edge
in the breeze. When a man
comes in from chores with Ian
tern and milkpail on arm, he
stops and lifts his eyes to a star
studded sky. An owl boots from
the woodland and fox barks
from the ridge. 1t is almost au-
tumn now.

structed stone barriers off the shore
Of the Deep Greek State park, on
the Meadow Mountain inlet and
maintained they were for the pro-
lection of the swimmers against
motor boats.
The electric company is now in
the process of sending out state
ments for the renewal of privilege
permits for the coming year With
the statement is a letter declaring
1T is with the understanding that
the renewal is subject to cancella-

The letter also added; IF it is
later discovered that any such en-
croachments are found to be on the
Safety Strip adjoining your prop

Possibility For Medical
Center. At FT'ienGESUiIEe Cited

Possibility that the medical GEN.
ter, planned by the citizens of
Friendsville and Accident, would
be erected at Fricndsville. was
voiced this week by the committee
in charge
The decision would be based on
a recent letter received from the
Sears Rocbuck Foundation, writ
ten by Norman II. Davis, program
director for all proposed medical
centcrS. wherein he suggested that
the citizens of Accident cooperate
with citizens of FricndavillC in the
erection of a medical center con
sisting of two doctors and dentist.
The recommendation was made
after a careful analysis of the
tabulatcd survey forms from the
Accident and Friendsville areas,
Mr.. Davis said.
The facts favored the community
Of Fricndsville which will be closer
to Accident than either Grantsville
or Oakland. He said the foundation
was dealing with facts, figures and
from its vast experience gained
from thousands of analyses Of
similar situations 50 that il would
be proper to respect this decision
by keeping in mind the benefits
to be derived from the founding of
medical center
The citizens of Friendsville
proved that they had our interests
at heart because through the
uniteed efforts of the Rotary club,
spearheaded by Ralph Bcachley,
they were successful in securing
the practice of very competent
physician. Dr. Pedro Rivera, who
has been residing in Friendsville
for the past five months
The tentative dates for the per
sonal appearance of Mr. Davis in
the Fricndsville Elementary school
will be February 8, 10 or %. All
citizens of Accident are invited to
participate in the venture Rev II.
H. Droutz, of Accident, said a def
mite announcement of the meet
ing would be made at later date.
Rev. Droutz remarked that the
motive for benevolent support, in
terest and attendance to the meet
ing ought to stem from personal i'll
terest in health and welfare of each
individual and their children, as
well as those of their neighbor

Election Board
Now Open Just
.2H Days a Week

The Board of Election Super
visors. following a meeting on De
ccmbcr %, is at present keeping its
office open two and one-half days
each week and not full time. And
there is a new person there as
chief registrar, having been named
ON a temporary basis, to take the
place of Russell l.. Smith, who re-
signed.
There had been some question
about the office remaining open
full time and such a recommended
ton was made by the Board of
County Commissioners In order
to make it possible the board levied
$500 for the Supervisors office
instead Of the 5000 which was re-
qucsted.
Ward Hinebaugh, president of
the Board of Supervisors, stated
that at meeting on December %
it was decided to keep the office
open only on Thursdays and Fri
days, to IL and l to 4, and on
Saturday, from 8 to r. 1t was also
decided that the chief registrar and
assistant registrar would be paid
on an equal basis, 1,500 each for
! the two and one-half day schedule.
He said the board received a
letter from the Commissioners writ
ten January II stating the commits
sioners had considered the matter
very carefully, and after securing
the views of various individuals and
the State Central committees, they
had decided to abide by the wishes
of the majority and increase the
levy making it possible to remain
open on a full time basis.
Mr.. limbaugh said the Board of
Supervisors met again on the 18th
after having had the office on a
half-timc basis for two weeks and
! IGdllli lllCu tHCII uCGIolOll w lIllldIll
on half-timc basis. Mr.. Smith said
! at that time he would be unable TO
remain at his job on half-time
basis and would resign His res
ignation was accepted and Mrs.
Bcrtic Thrashcr placed there on a
temporary basis. limbaugh said
they would name chief registrar
soon.
The office is due to be rcor-
ganzcd in June when the terms Of
the present board expire At thai;
time two Democrats will be APP
pointed and Republican minority
member. and the chief registrar
will probably be a Democrat, with
a Republican ~ assistant registrar.
