SALISBURY.
Good Roads Day was successful be-
yond most anybne’s expectations. A-
bout150 men and boys turned out in {Hy
Salisbury lastWednesday to work on Wg
the streets and a nice lot of work was
accomplished. Besides the 19 teams
that were on duty the new steam roll-
er which the 20th Century Mig. Co.
of Boynton furnished for the
work
was kept moving until midnight and
the streets of Salisbury
bear evidence of the effort that was
put forth on the first Good Roads Day.
A large crowd of people gathered
to attend the decoration of graves at
this plaec on Monday, May 31. Mem-
bers of ‘the G. A. R. of Meyersdale
came on the special car at about
3:30 p. m. and at the car line joined
the parade which marched from there
to the I. O. O. F. cemetery. The most
of the old veterans of this community |
were also in the parade. The Boynton
band and the drum corps from Mey:
ersdale furnished the music. Rev. W.
W. Wagner, of this place made a
very appropriate address following the
Memorial services by the G. A. R.
Post.
A large congregation was in attend-
ance at St. John’s Reformed church
on Sunday evening at the Union Me-
morial services. The music was fur-
nished by the Salisbury orchestra
and a choir of men from the various
churches of town. The sermon was a
bly and impressively delivered by
Rev. Ira S. Monn, pastor of the Re-
formed church; he was assisted in
the services by Rev. W. W. Wagner
and Rev. E.S. Johnston.
In accordance with the Governor's
suggestion that church bells be tolled
at noon on Sunday , the bell in the
Reformed Church where the Memor-
ail services were held was tolled for
five minutes at noon.
On Sunday while most people were
in Church or Sunday School several
boys of known pilfering proclivities
entered the store of Howard Meager
& Co. and helped themsevels to sev-
eral bottles of pop, quite a lot of
chewing gum and some gold rings.
The culprits were apprehended on
Monday and prosecutions will likely
follow. What manner of settlement
will be effected is only a matter of
conjecture. One of the lads who was
likely the leader, has been in several
scrapes of this kind and many people
here think a term in the reformatory |
would be a fitting as well as a befit-
ting penalty for him. The young ma- |
rauders entered the building through !
a coal chute into the cellar and from |
there had easy access to the store]

Any Farmer Can
build With Concrete
Concrete construction is simple and easv to do suc-
cessfully ~~ Any farmer, with his hired man can build a
poultry house, a flight of cellar stairs or a house founda-
tion, or any other farm structure. In the course of a
year or two you can add greatly to the value of your pro-
perty by putting in concrete improvements.
Lehigh Portland Cement
makes the best concrete When’ busing cement do not
fail to specify Lehigh. You expect your concrete struc
ture to last, but you must remember that the strength of
your building depends on the quality of cement you use.
A concrete structure built with’ LEHI.,H Cement will
stay as long as the land stays. -
