November 30, 1945: No Xmas Decorations Or Treat For Children in Westminster

Labels: , , , ,
No Xmas Decorations Or Treat For Children Here

Democratic Advocate, November 30, 1945.

Announcement was made by Mayor Joseph L. Mathias that the municipal decorations for the coming Christmas season will be limited to the decorating of the tree at "The Forks".

Due to the lack of available manpower and the scarcity of required materials, the Mayor said the extensive decorating plan, which prevailed prior to the war, would not be resumed this year.

Mayor Mathias also announced that the City could not offer the Christmas treat to the children of the community this year because of the limitations to the supply of candies and fruits.

Annoying Phone Calls? Chamber Gives Advice

The Carroll County Chamber of Commerce has received several complaints recently about annoying phone calls and calls which involve aggressive and bothersome sales techniques, a Chamber press release reported last week.

To deal with calls which are abusive or which involve pranks, the safest course of action starts with positive identification of the caller, the Chamber said. If there is any doubt, ask to return the call which will give you the opportunity to check the number for accuracy.

Most importantly, never, never answer questions of a personal nature unless you are sure of the identity of the caller, the Chamber cautioned.

Union Bridge - A pair of trousers was stolen

Union Bridge Pilot, December 3, 1920.

Union Bridge - A pair of trousers was stolen early in the evening from the wash line of Mrs. John Pittinger about a week ago.

We were under the impression that thievery was entirely confined to booze the past year or two.

New Windsor - It is rumored that robbers have entered, or attempted to enter, several houses in town in the recent past, and that they visited the home of Erscie Benedict last Saturday night during the absence of the family, getting away with a supply of their butchering stuff, consisting of sausage, pudding, &c.

Should they continue on their rounds, it is hoped that may get all that is due them.

The miserable condition of the road leading from Oakland Mills to the Liberty pike

Call the attention of the County Commissioners to the miserable condition of the road leading from Oakland Mills to the Liberty pike

Democratic Advocate, December 3, 1898

Haight Items—By request of persons who travel the road leading from Oakland Mills to the Liberty pike, we call the attention of the County Commissioners to the miserable condition of said road, especially through the property of Mr. B. F. Bennett, and near the residence of Mr. T. S. Clark.

Those two places are well-nigh impassible, and not only a disgrace to the community but also to the county.

It is rather late to mend roads we admit, at least with dirt, but surely stones enough can be gotten nearby to fill these monster mud holes, and at very little cost now, but if it is not done, and accidents occur at those places, which will be unavoidable, this county will have to pay damages.

We doubt if there has been for years a place on any road in the county in such a miserable condition. We hope the attention of the Commissioners will be called to this matter and the road mended at once.

Democratic Advocate, December 3, 1898.

[18981203 miserable condition of road from Oakland Mills to Liberty pike]

Belle Grove Square Holiday House tour in Westminster slated for Dec. 11, 2010 3-8 p.m.

DAYHOFF: Touring history, and holiday finery, at Belle Grove Square

Eagle Archive By Kevin Dayhoff


At the last meeting of the Westminster mayor and Common Council, two venerable and historic Westminster neighborhoods were placed under zoning protections in an effort to preserve and protect them for future generations. (See page 5. http://www.explorecarroll.com/news/4960/westminster-officials-adopt-zoning-changes-willis-street-belle-grove/)

The two neighborhoods involved in the adopted zoning changes, Belle Grove Square and Willis Street, are steeped in history and tradition in Westminster.

The origins of Belle Grove Square date back to 1866…


Fast-forwarding, folks will have the opportunity to tour the historic Belle Grove Square neighborhood Dec. 11, 3-8 p.m., when the community opens its doors for the Westminster Historic District Commission's biannual Historic Holiday House Tour.

The last time the community had the opportunity to celebrate its historic homes was on the occasion of the first holiday house tour in 1996. Bruce DeVault, the president of the neighborhood association, is excited about the tour. He said it'll be a unique opportunity to see inside some of Westminster's hidden treasures.

The tour "is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the history of our town," said Melissa Hynes, Westminster's comprehensive planner.

Tickets -- $10 in advance; $12 at the door -- are on sale at the city administrative offices, City Hall, the Historical Society, Carroll Arts Center and the Hickory Stick.

It should be noted that Congress hasn't formally acted on the issue since the last immigration reform measures were passed in 1986 -- a point not lost on New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson when he addressed the Capitolbeat conference....
