Rash of Robberies
Occurs Past ? Weeks

Authorities are still seeking the
individual or individuals who are
responsible for the sudden out
break of robberies in the Mt. Lake
Park, Oakland and nearby areas.
Two weeks ago three robberieS
we're listed as occurring at Loeb
Lynn Heights. The three places
entered were the Loeb Lynn Serv-
ice station, owned by Cecil Hahn;
Henry Gibson's Auto Wrecking Of
flee; and the Grange Supply Cen
ter.
Last week they entered Mar
tins store and took S14.75 from the
cash register but apparently did
not take anything else. They gained
entrance by taking back door
from its hinges. This was the sec
ond time for Martins store, some
body having entered the place last
November.
Parsons garage was also en-
tered. Gregory's restaurant had a
front entrance jimmicd but whether
or not they entered the restau-
rant could not be learned. Appar-
emily nothing was touched and it
is possible they were scared away.
Also entered we're the H. Weber
and Sons office, south of town, and
Chimney Corner at Red House.
At Chimney Corner they removed
two windows, one from rear
door, and one from the front.
There was no money in the cash
register at that place and appar-
emily nothing else was bothered.
There have been attempts in re-
cent days to break into the Oak
land Lumber company and the A.
D. Naylor and Company store on
Liberty street. The attempt to get
into the Naylor store, Saturday
night. occurred even before it had
closed for the night A rear door
had been forced open but some
clerk heard the commotion and in
vestigated. 1t was we'll barred be-
fore leaving for home.

County's Tax Bills
To Be Mailed Today

Between 5000 and 5000 county
tax bills were scheduled to be
mailed to citizens of the county
today, it was announced by Joseph
WEIGH, county treasurer.
The list will not include tax on
personal property, or those bust
ness places paying direct through
the State Tax commission.
The effort is being made again
this year to send out the tax bills
as early as possible in the hope
the county would receive enough
return to run the county for Janu-
airy, so that it would not be neces-
sary to borrow $4,000 on a short
term loan as had been the case
IN former years. The tax forms
are the same size as last year and
are white in color.
On all county taxes paid during
January and February a discount of
) percent is allowed; on all county
tax paid during March and April a
discount of 4 percent is allowed;
on all county taxes paid during
May and June discount of three
percent is allowed No discount is
allowed unless the whole amount
of the tax for the current year is
paid. No discount is allowed after
June 30, and after September 80
interest is charged at the rate of
one half percent per month. No dis
count is allowed on state taxes.
The tax rate $500 on each 500
of assessable property. The state
tax rate is 1912.

Enter Eighth Year

sponsored by the American Red
Cross here is entering upon its
eighth year next Tuesday. it was
learned from Mrs. Grover Stemple,
blood recruitment chairman.
The JohnstoWn Bloodmobile unit
is due here on that day and will
receive blood at the Oakland fire
hall from II o'clock noon until 6
p. m. The program got under way
in this county on February 2, 1852,
Mrs. Stemple said Since that time
the local hospital has averaged at
least one pint per day, or a total
of 1920 pints. These have been
contributed through the Red
Cross, either through the Blood
mobile or through emergency
calls by Red Cross donors whose
names are on file at the hospital
In addition 161 pints have been
sent to out of region hospitals for
use of county residents, making
total of 3,O81 pints provided.
Urges Extra Effort
Mrs. StempIe stated this morn
ing that because of two extreme
emergencies at the hospital with
in the past few days, eight of the
scheduled blood donors for the
Tuesday bloodmobile visit we're
called to the hospital to give blood.
Because this might have an effect
on the total blood contributions
next week Mrs. StempIe urged an
extra effort on the part of people
to provide the extra pints needed.
The amount of blood contributed
during the past seven years totaled
3,174 She pointed out that Is per-
cent of all blood contributions are
supposed to go to Civil Defense,
so the county actually is in the
red so far as fulfilling its total
commitments, having used more
than IS percent of its contribu-
tons.
Mrs. Stemple had list of seven
ty-seven people who had given any
where from 81 pints to pints,

at a hearing in the Circuit court
on Thursday reduced two-year
term in the House of Correction to
six months in the county Jail for
Jack Hardesty, about % years of
age, who resides in the Bethlehem
section.
Hardesty was sentenced to serve

Mt. Lake Park. Mr. Bittinger was
treated at the Garrett County Me-
mortal hospital for broken nose
and other injuries.
Hardesty, who prayed an appeal,
on November II has been lodged
in the Garrett county Jail since that
time A few days ago he requested
an immediate trial, giving up his
right to indictment by the Grand
Jury.
The six months sentence is to
run from November 6. Hardesty
also was ordered to reimburse Mr..
Bittinger for all medical expenses.
According to information furnish
ed the States Attorney, at the time
of the hearing, Hardesty, driving
his mothers automobile, narrowly
missed Bittinger at an intersection.
A moment later Bittinger was
crowded off the road by the Hard
esty machine and Jack Hardesty
got out of his automobile and
started for Mr.. Bittinger. William
Henry Hardesty attempted to re-
strain him but he assaulted Mr..
Bittinger.
