During the past week employees of the C. & P. Telephone Company have been busy making preparations to change the many wires now strung on high poles through Thurmont. These men have placed on the poles now in use a heavy messenger wire, this wire extending from the exchange at the west end of town to the eastern portion or just be- yond Walnut street. On this wire will be hung a lead-covered cable containing 50 wires. The wires now on the poles will be taken down, but the top of the poles will not be taken olf. A cable will also be strung over Church and Water streets. After the cable has been put in use, the necessity of trimming trees will be eliminated and the matter of wires be- coming crossed avoided. FORD’S GRAND OPERA HOUSE. Week of December 2, the musical com- edy success, LOUISIANA LOU, with Alexander Clark, Sophie Tucker and company of seventy-five. Louisiana Lou, is the “Merry Widow’’ of musical comedy. Alexander Carr is its David Warfield, and Sophie Tucker is its Mary Garden. What more could could amusement lovers wish for? The rollicking, frolicksome performance will be at Ford’s the week of December 2d, to entertain a public which has been pa tiently awaiting its sprightly gaiety. One of the many charms of Louisiana Lou is its unassuming naturalness. It s does not ask for kind applause. But each succeeding number has a novel attrac- tiveness which keeps the audience on the tip toe of gratified anticipation. Alex- ander Carr wields the septre of funmak- er-in-chief, with Sophie Tucker wearing the crown of ragtime queen. The chorus is of particular value. In stage-door parlance, it is Johnny-on-the- spot. It dances with zest, sings with vi- ¦ vacity, does not pose, and its whole in- terest is centered on the stage. The girls ] are fetchingly pretty, while the men look j and act like young Americans with views and ambitions of their own. Louisiana I Lou, at the Walnut street Theatre, in Philadelphia, enjoyed recently one of the most pleasant engagements of the sea- son, and its coming here promises to be a hurrah welcome to the brightest lot of musical comedy people Chicago has ever sent to this city. Matinees Wednesday and Saturday. Admission 25 and 50 cents Week of December 9th, “Denman Thompson’s ideal rural play, The Old Homestead. Declare War on Colds. A crusade of education which aims “that common colds may become uncom- mon within the next generation’’ has been begun by prominent New York phy- sicians. Here is a list of the “don’ts” which the doctors say will prevent the annual visitation of the cold: “Don’t sit in a draughty car.” “Don’t sleep in hot rooms.” “Don’t avoid the fresh air.” “Don’t stuff yourself at meal time. Over-eating reduces your resistance.” To which we would add-when you take a cold get rid of it as quickly as possible. To accomplish that you will find Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy most excellent. Sold by all dealers. Advertisement. Seltzer-Grant Wedding. A very pretty church wedding took place at St. Anthony’s parish church, Ml. St. Mary’s, on Wednesday morning of last week when Miss Margaret Flor- ence Grant, the younger daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank I). Grant, of Wilming- ton, Del., became the wife of Mr. John William Seltzer, the second eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. James R. Seltzer, of Mt. St. Mary’s. The nuptial mass and ser- vices were conducted by Kev. G. H. Tragesser, pastor of St. Anthony’s. Rev. J. C. McGovern of Mt. Si. Mary’s Col- lege Faculty, was also in the sanctuary. The servers for the occasion were -las. McNulty and Win. Wetzel. Dr. E. B. Sefton, of Thurmont, had the pleasure of hauling the bridal party to and from St. Anthony’s in his new automobile. The bride was dressed in cream colored satin trimmed with French lace, and wore a picture hat to match and carried a shower bouquet of orange blossoms. '1 he bridesmaid, a cousin of the bride, Miss Mabel Grant, was dressed in white embroidi ry over pink and wore a picture hat to match and carried a shower bou- quet of ferns and pink carnations. The groom and best man, Mr. Ernest Seltzer, were dressed in dark navy blue serge. Following the wedding ceremonies a sumptuous wedding breakfast was served at the home of the bride’s grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Grant. Those pres- ent were Rev. G. H. Tragesser, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Seltzer, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Grant, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Grant and family, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Wilkinson and son, Misses Mabel, Anna and Mary Giant, Alice Watson, Mary Knott, Mary Barry, Catherine Seltzer, Messrs.

McNulty and son, Mrs. John Peddicord, Mrs. Bailey, Mrs. Joseph Kreilz, Mrs. Eugene Warthen, Misses Fannie Kolb, Maty Jordan, Clayanna Little and Addie Peddicord. During the afternoon Rev. James G. Burke, vice president of the College, and Rev. P. A. Coad, of the College Faculty, called and congratulated the newly mar- ried couple. In the evening a reception was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Seltzer. During the reception the newly married couple were the recipients of many use- j ful and valuable presents. Among those j present were: Mr. and Mrs. Edw. Wilk- | inson and son, Mr. and Mrs. trank Grant 1 and son, Mr. and Mrs. James Seltzer and i family, Mr. and Mrs. P. E.

Mr. and Mrs. Seltzer will reside at Mt. St. Mary’s. Milk Plant is Sold. David Lowenstein, of Frederick, and Richard J. Earnshaw, receivers for the Baltimore and Washington White Cross | Milk Plant, one of the leading industries of Frederick, announce the sale of the i plant to George M. Oyster, of Washing- ton. for $27,000. As soon as the court ratifies the sale the transfer will be made. Ihe sale concludes a business venture ; which has been very unprofitable. About ! $211,000 was invested in the plant several i yaars ago. Stock to the amount of $140,- i UOO was sold, and there are standing against the company two issues of bonds amounting to $408,000. The stockholders will suffer total losses. In addition, the company owed the farm- , ers of the county about SIO,OOO for milk, and nothing will be realized on this. Mr. Oyster is a milk dealor, and he will con- tinue the plant. The company owned j between 20 and 40 horses and delivery . 1 wagons, all of which, and the good will, i arejncluded in the sale.— Post.

Huebener will hold services Sun- day morning and evening, also C. E. A Night of Terror. Few nights are more terrible than that of a mother looking on her child choking and gasping for breath during an attack of croup, and nothing in the house to re- lieve it. Many mothers have passed nights of terror in this situation. A little fore- thought will enable you to avoid all this. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is acer- ; tain cure for croup and has never been ; known to fail. Keep it at hand. For | sale by all dealers. Advertisement. J. Henry Cover Retires. A Faithful Public Servant of the People of Tliurinont. On Saturday night after the close of business, J. Henry Cover turned over the Post Office with all effects and belongings to Morris L. Rouzer, the newly appoint- ed postmaster, who qualified and took charge. It is but proper that we should say a word or two concerning the retiring post- master, who has been one of the most untiring and efficient officers that the Thurmont Post Office has ever had, while Thurmont has always had good postmas- ters she has never had a better one, and from the records of the Post Office De- partment this office stands at the head of the list. Mr. Cover was appointed postmaster by President Wm. McKinley, November 17, 1897, and has served continuously for ] 15 years. Mr. Cover was first assisted by his son, Harry C. Cover, who died about a year ago, then by a daughter. Miss Lila, (now Mrs. Emory Wisotzkey) and after the death of his son Harry, Mr. Clayton Creeger was appointed as Assistant, who, ( we understand, for time will be the As- | sistant to Mr. Rouzer. The Clarion has said before, and says again, that it sees no necessity for mak- | ing changes in postmasters when they have given such uniform satisfaction to the public as has Mr. Cover, but the devious ways of the “politicians” are j such that there are always the “faithful” ! on the outside as well as the “faithful” i on the inside, so we may well suppose that this condition will he most likely to continue until the time when we don’t have politicians which will be at the dawn of the millenium, no doubt. Mr, Morris L. Rouzer is a son of the late John Rouzer and Mrs. Emma K. Rouzer, still living, and was educated at G-ttysburg College. He married Miss Mamie Henshow, a daughter of the late Dr. Henshaw of this place. Mr. Rouzer t s not unacquainted with “post office life”, he having been a rural carrier for several years, after which he had been employed as bookkeeper for Mr. Throup until the mines closed and after this un- ; til the present time he was bookkeeper and general manager for Mr. Weyhright in the flour and feed business. We wish the new incumbent for his term of office that he will have as suc- cessful administration as his immediate predecessor. Concrete Roads To Be Built Next Year Concrete roads are to he more exten- sively constructed next year by the State Roads Commission, if plans being formed by Chairman (). E. Weller go through. Mr. Weller has become convinced of the superior durability of concrete roads | for heavy traffic and, haying made tests with sections of road in Baltimore City and a stretch of several miles in South- ern Maryland, is preparing to lay consid- erable mileage next year. He thinks concrete roads the latest ev- olution in road construction and believes 1 they meet the objections which have de- veloped to macadam roads where traffic is particularly heavy and there is much motoring. Mr. Weller says road builders through- ! out the world have come to a realization that some substitute must be found for macadam if roads of permanance are to constructed. In sections of the country where motoring is general it has been found that macadam roads disintegrate so rapidly as to make the cost of upkeep and general repairs prohibitive. The tires of motors create a vacuum behind them which draws the finer part- i ides in the screenings of water-bound macadam, and in the case of bituminous macadam lifts the carpet from the road in small cakes, according to the general experience of road builders. Unless such developing defects are immediately rem- edied the road speedily goes to pieces. Such remedying is, of course, costly. I County Doctors Elect. The annual meeting of the Frederick County Medical Society was held a few days ago at the Elks’ Club, Frederick. J Luncheon was served before the meet- i ing. The following officers were elected: President, Dr. Morris A. Birely, Thur- mont; first vice-president, Dr. S. S. May- nard, Frederick; second vice-president, Dr. Ralph R. Browning, Myersville; sec- retary, Dr. B. O. Thomas, Frederick; treasurer, Dr. H. P. Fahrney, Frederick; delegate to State Society, Dr. T. C. Routson, Buckeystown; censor, Dr. Ira J. McCurdy. Dr. T. C. Routson, Dr. E. L. Beck ley, Middletown, and Dr. B. C. Perry, Ur- bana, were named as a committee to send ¦ condolences to Mrs. Smith, widow of the Dr. Franklin Buchanan Smith, for years] a member of the Frederick County Med- ical Society. Condolences were also sent to Dr. and Mrs. L. S. Barker, of Balti- more, upon the death of their child. Dr. 1 j Barker is the head of Johns Hopkins | Medical School, and is well known in Frederick. i "First Sermon in Song.” Sunday evening last Prof. H. C. Mar- shall Marashleian, the singing evangelist, ; appeared in Trinity Reformed church be- fore a large audience. The Professor possesses a well trained voice and handles 1 the violin well. His song selections con- j sists chiefly of old familiar hymns, hut his interpretation was entirely different 1 from that of the majority of singers. ! We believe that to the majority of the j audience he was tiresome, j Prof. Marashleian says his “Sermon ' in Songs” to be given in the Town Hall, Thurmont, on Sunday, Dec. 22d, at 2.30 p. m., will last only one and a half hours because he has other services, and that it will contain more solos than there were at the Reformed church last Sun- day and likely some selections in foreign tongue. Big Wreck OaW. M. Road. i Two Freight Trains Collide at Bine Mountain Station. On Tuesday night of this week a wreck occurred on the Western Maryland rail- road at Blue Mountain House station, the east and west bound through freight trains going together head-on. The ac- cident is said to be due to a misunder- standing of orders by the crew of the westbound train. Both trains were heav- ily loaded with merchandise, and practi- ! cally all the cars and contents and en- gines of both trains were demolished. The crews of both trains were badly injured, two men being killed outright, and others are expected to die. Traffic was held up until late Wednesday. The i wreck occurred alongside of a sidetrack | and after this was cleared of debris, trains began coming through about on . schedule time. The main track was not I cleared until late' Wednesday night. Thanksgiving Dinner. The Ladies of the Mite Society of St. John’s Lutheran church will serve their usual Thanksgiving Dinner in Town Hall on Thanksgiving Day, November 28th. Supper will he served during the even- ing and also on Saturday evening follow- ing, and an entertainment given each evening. The public is cordially invited to attend. Oysters will be served Sat- urday night. Parade in Creagerslown. We have been informed that the Dem- ocrats of Creagerstown District will hold a jollification meeting and parade in Creagerstown on Tuesday evening, Dec. 3d. After the parade there will bespeak- ing in the Town Hall, and oysters will he served. The Eminit Band will he pres- ent and with the Monocacy Valley Band will furnish choice music for the occasion.

FORD’S GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Week of December 2, the musical com-

edy success,

LOUISIANA LOU,with Alexander Clark, Sophie Tucker

and company of seventy-five.Louisiana Lou, is the “Merry Widow’’

of musical comedy. Alexander Carr isits David Warfield, and Sophie Tucker isits Mary Garden. What more couldcould amusement lovers wish for? Therollicking, frolicksome performance willbe at Ford’s the week of December 2d,

to entertain a public which has been patiently awaiting its sprightly gaiety.

One of the many charms of LouisianaLou is its unassuming naturalness. It sdoes not ask for kind applause. But eachsucceeding number has a novel attrac-tiveness which keeps the audience on thetip toe of gratified anticipation. Alex-ander Carr wields the septre of funmak-er-in-chief, with Sophie Tucker wearing

the crown of ragtime queen.The chorus is of particular value. In

stage-door parlance, it is Johnny-on-the-

spot. It dances with zest, sings with vi- ¦vacity, does not pose, and its whole in-terest is centered on the stage.

J. Henry Cover Retires.A Faithful Public Servant of

the People of Tliurinont.On Saturday night after the close of

business, J. Henry Cover turned over thePost Office with all effects and belongings

to Morris L. Rouzer, the newly appoint-ed postmaster, who qualified and tookcharge.

It is but proper that we should say a

word or two concerning the retiring post-

master, who has been one of the mostuntiring and efficient officers that theThurmont Post Office has ever had, whileThurmont has always had good postmas-

ters she has never had a better one, andfrom the records of the Post Office De-partment this office stands at the head

of the list.Mr. Cover was appointed postmaster

by President Wm. McKinley, November17, 1897, and has served continuously for ]15 years.

Mr. Cover was first assisted by his son,

Harry C. Cover, who died about a yearago, then by a daughter. Miss Lila, (nowMrs. Emory Wisotzkey) and after thedeath of his son Harry, Mr. Clayton

Creeger was appointed as Assistant, who, (we understand, for time will be the As- |sistant to Mr. Rouzer.

The Clarion has said before, and saysagain, that it sees no necessity for mak- |ing changes in postmasters when they

have given such uniform satisfaction tothe public as has Mr. Cover, but thedevious ways of the “politicians” are jsuch that there are always the “faithful” !on the outside as well as the “faithful” ion the inside, so we may well supposethat this condition will he most likely to

continue until the time when we don’thave politicians which will be at thedawn of the millenium, no doubt.

Mr, Morris L. Rouzer is a son of the

late John Rouzer and Mrs. Emma K. •

Rouzer, still living, and was educated atG-ttysburg College. He married MissMamie Henshow, a daughter of the lateDr. Henshaw of this place. Mr. Rouzer

t s not unacquainted with “post officelife”, he having been a rural carrier forseveral years, after which he had beenemployed as bookkeeper for Mr. Throupuntil the mines closed and after this un- ;

til the present time he was bookkeeperand general manager for Mr. Weyhrightin the flour and feed business.

We wish the new incumbent for histerm of office that he will have as suc-

cessful administration as his immediatepredecessor.

Concrete Roads To Be Built Next Year

Concrete roads are to he more exten-

sively constructed next year by the StateRoads Commission, ifplans being formedby Chairman (). E. Weller go through.

Mr. Weller has become convinced ofthe superior durability of concrete roads |for heavy traffic and, haying made testswith sections of road in Baltimore City

and a stretch of several miles in South-ern Maryland, is preparing to lay consid-erable mileage next year.

He thinks concrete roads the latest ev-

olution in road construction and believes 1they meet the objections which have de-veloped to macadam roads where trafficis particularly heavy and there is muchmotoring.

Mr. Weller says road builders through- !out the world have come to a realizationthat some substitute must be found formacadam ifroads of permanance are toconstructed. In sections of the country

where motoring is general it has beenfound that macadam roads disintegrateso rapidly as to make the cost of upkeepand general repairs prohibitive.

The tires of motors create a vacuumbehind them which draws the finer part- iides in the screenings of water-boundmacadam, and in the case of bituminousmacadam lifts the carpet from the roadin small cakes, according to the generalexperience of road builders. Unless suchdeveloping defects are immediately rem-

edied the road speedily goes to pieces.Such remedying is, of course, costly. I

"First Sermon in Song.”

Sunday evening last Prof. H. C. Mar-shall Marashleian, the singing evangelist, ;appeared in TrinityReformed church be-fore a large audience. The Professorpossesses a well trained voice and handles

1 the violin well. His song selections con-

j sists chiefly of old familiar hymns, hut• his interpretation was entirely different

1 from that of the majority of singers.! We believe that to the majority of the

j audience he was tiresome,

j Prof. Marashleian says his “Sermon' in Songs” to be given in the Town Hall,Thurmont, on Sunday, Dec. 22d, at 2.30p. m., will last only one and a half hoursbecause he has other services, and thatit will contain more solos than therewere at the Reformed church last Sun-day and likely some selections in foreign

tongue.
