had intended his homecoming to
be a surprise but on hearing of
their good luck, could not keep
his secret. His brother, Leonard

In a rundown of the weeks
weather, there was rain last Thurs
day which turned into snow later
that night. Friday was freezing and
cloudy. Some melting occurred on
Saturday, but more snow fell on
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. On
Wednesday snow continued to fall,
dropping anywhere from one to
four inches in the county The
heavier snowfall was in the north

JIUSIGSS.
Cornerstone Is Laid

The cornerstone was laid on DC
tober Is, 1907, with ceremonies in
charge of the Oakland Masonic
lodge. The weather was ideal, and
a large crowd turned out for the
affair
The Masons left their lodge
rooms at two o'clock and were
joined by members of Garrett
Lodge No. 113, Knights of Pythias,
and the Deer Park band
At the conclusion of Masonic
ritual and songs by the Oakland
School chorus, short address was
made by j. NJ. Jarboe, Worshipful
Master of the Masonic lodge. Mr..
Jarboe stated that the principal
speaker, Judge Boyd, was unable
to attend, but his address would
be read by DR.. E. H. Bartlett. The
message dealt with Historical
"reminiscences of Garrett County
since its formation, and reviewed
the progress made since that time.
The writer has been able to as
certain the items deposited in the
cornerstone. They arc:
ca copy Of each of the three
county newspapers then published,
The Republican, The Mountain
Democrat and The Garrett Journal.
eA statement of the financial
condition of each of the banks of
the county.
ca copy Of the Bylaws of the
Masonic order and a roster of its
membership.
ca list of the attorneys of the
Garrett County Bar.
ga list of county officials.
ga few coins.
On November %, 1908, the build
ing was formally accepted by the
Commission and the various county
officials began moving into the
building. First to move was E. Z.
Tower, Clerk of the Circuit Court.
A newspaper account of the time
states Garrett County can now
feel proud OF her public buildings,
which stand second to none in the
state, and there is hardly a tax
payer in the county who can re-
Grct the expenditure of dollar
of the money spent for the cree
ton of the Court House and the
Jail"
And so, after much diSsension
and contention, Garrett County had
its new Court House. In his first
address to the jury III the new
building Judge Boyd declared he
hoped the structure would be "a
place where equal and exact
justice TO all men, of whatever
state or persuasion. religious or
political, will be made certain"
Judge Boyd's hope is as cndur-
ing as the building in which it
was uttered.

Dear Sir:
Please permit me to extend
through your columns my thanks
10 Mr. Frank Peters for his we'll
conceived and clcarly-expressed
letter which was published in
Your recent number. His warning
is timely.
When King Priam of Troy was
informed that the enemy who had
been besicging his city for ten
years had departed, leaving on
the beach huge statue of horse
he exclaimed Il fear the Greeks
bearing gifts" Nevertheless, the
TrCians tore a hole in the city's
wall and dragged the horse inside.
The Greeks inside the horse let
down a ladder from an opening in
the belly of the horse and were
soon in possession of the city.
Politicians bearing gifts are
more TO be feared than are Greeks
The rule seems to be to look out
for themselves first and then the
people,
Mr. Peters made a good point in
stating that the proposed plan to
aid The aged viii tend to set a
group Of citizens apart from the
rest ii our population May l point
out that this has already happened
in the case Of Social Security?

stoakS and bonds, pensions, and in
herited wealth, and continue to
draw his Social Security benefits
at any age over IS years. However,
if a person under II years of age
wishes to supplement the small sum
he receives under Social Security
by engaging in business, he is linn
tied to mere pittance, 500 per
month earned income. When this
person has reached the age of r.,
however, the Government in a
burst of generosity permits him to
keep as much as he can make, of
course subject to tax deductions.
But what person in such circum-
stances who has been putting the
brakes on his earning power and
ambition for seven long years can
rally sufficiently to take advan-
tage Of this apparently generous
concession?
If the sponsors of the proposed
act are sincere | suggest as a good
start the elimination of the dis
elimination against these ambitious
oldsters between the ages of sixty
five and scvcnty-tWo years.
Wishing your esteemed publica-
ton prosperous New Year, l re-
main,
Faithfully yours,
