Concerning The Junior Chautau-
qua Winter Club Pageant.

The pageant that has been promised
the junior club towns, to be given on the
day of the last meeting of the Junior
Chautauqua Club, will be an historical
pageant. 1t will represent the history of
our locality or community, as far as posi-
Bile, 1t will depend a great deal upon the
cooperation Of the townspeople whether
our pageant will be of the general history
of the eastern U. s. or of the particular
history Of our own town. We can use about
200 people more. If we can get them;
less If we are compelled TO. We want to
make the pageant a community affair.
The Chautauqua Association has had
written especially for this event an ex-
ceptionally interesting. picturesque and in
spring pageant. called THE Pageant of
Our Town." The pageant is written by
Miss Dorothy Powell, of the regular Chau-
tauqua staff, and will be directed by Miss
Powell, or Miss Helen Mari. as pageant
master. Through the summer Chautau-
qua. both senior and junior we have been
preaching the doctrine. get together (;
work, play, live together" Now we want
to try out our town. to see If we cannot
really get together. and give a town
pageant that will be truly representative
Of the best in the past and present of our
community life. We can use boys and
girls, high school students. camp fire girls,
boy scouts. women's clubs. business mems
associations, Sunday Schools. Christian
Endeavor Societies. civic leagues. historic
societies. lodges, suffrage organizations,
industrial organizations, dramatic organi-
cations, and any other group Of interested
people lit is to be community festival,
and it is up to each and every public
spirited, up-to-date. wide-awake, fun-loving
citizen to get in line and help make "A
Pageant Of Our Town" one grand success.

ter Of Mr.. and Mrs. George M. Walter, Of

A Thorough Test.

One to convince the most skeptical
Rockville reader.
The test Of time is the test that counts.
Doans Kidney Pills have made their
reputation by effective action.
The following case is typical.
Rockville residents should be convinced.
The testimony is confirmed-the proof
complete.
Testimony like this cannot be ignored.
Mrs. A. l. Cooper, 20 L St.. N. w.. Wash
ington, d. c., says: Il used to suffer a good
deal from backaches and other symptoms
of kidney trouble. The kidney secretions
were unnatural. My back bothered me at
night and in the morning was very miser-
able. Doan's Kidney Pills quickly gave
me relief from the trouble. -(Statement
given December 4, 1929
Over year latter Mrs. Cooper said: 81
still take Doan's Kidney Pills occasionally
and always get just as good results.
am glad to again publicly endorse Doan's
Kidney Pills. for it may help someone else
who has kidney trouble"
Price soc at all dealers. Don't simply
ask for kidney remedy--get D0an's Kid
ney Pills--the same that Mrs. Cooper has
twice publicly recommended. FOster-Mil-

For the angels folded to their breast.
Whispering Francis, God loves you best.

The Rockville Idea.

The busy bee has long been pointed ouI
as model of industry, and mankind i:
rightly urged to study its way and be wise
For bees have solved the secret of co-opera-
ton. They understand that unity of pur-
pose is essential to accomplishment; that
all must work together to a common end il
their efforts are to be fraueht with success
A single bee makes no appreciate amount
of honey, but when its effort is multiplied
by the activity of the full hive results are
very different Just so it is in community
life. 1t Is impossible for one man working
alone to materially change conditions. But
with all the people united, each matching
effort with the other great things can be
accomplished.
Good merchants make it rule to take
annual inventory of stocks, to determine
results of the past and plan for the future.
This is a practice which might well be
followed by the individual in respect to his
or her relationship to the community, Here
are some questions to consider. What
have been doing to advance the interests
| of this section? Has the community been
getting from me such cooperation as it
had right to expectH Have been work
ing with my friends and neiehbors, and the
business interests generally to make this
the best community in the countryY Surely
it would be fine If we could all answer in the
affirmative But whatever our activity in
the past. each can and should decide to
take his or her rightful place in the boost
ing of the entire community; the country
as well as the town. the town as well as
the country. We all are part Of one great
whole, and we shall certainly find that CO.
operation of this character pays big divi-
dends to the individual as well as to the
community.
Just as capital and labor must work
together in industrial life for the interests
of all, so must all the members of a COM
munity work together for the community's
good. Not as matter of charitable impulse,
but from purely business motives Because
the prosperity of this community is i'm
portant to every citizen of this community.
The community needs your help; you need
the community's help. In these modern
times no one can go it" alone ; we are all
dependent one upon the other. Each can
best serve his own purposes by assisting
others to best serve theirs.
In considering trading at home as one
Of the elements of community building, let
there be no Misunderstanding. No reason
able man would urge upon another the
necessity Of trading at home simply be-
cause 1t is at home. No live merchant
expects business on any such basis. He
knows that he must give value and service
commensurate with that procurable else
where. In no other way can he success
fully solicit and command community
patronage and good will. He recognizes
that as a merchant he becomes servant
Of the community in which he does bust
ness, and that as such it is the right of
his customers to demand that he shall
search the markets for the best merchan-
disc suitable to community needs, and that
he shall secure such prices as to give their
dollars the fullest purchasing power.

The State tuberculosis Committee.

Montgomery county was represented last
Saturday at a meeting of the State wide
tuberculosis Committee meeting at An
napolis by Mrs. Clara Bliss Finley, of Rock
vile and Washington. This committee
was appointed last year by the Governor
Of the State to devise ways and means for
preventing. II possible. the terrible inroads
that tuberculosis makes into the popula-
ton Of Maryland every year. The meet
ing was presided over by DR.. Fulton. of
Baltimore. and received and discussed q
report OF a subcommittee signed by Louis
V. Harmon, V.F. Cullen and Rob't C. Powell.
This report sets forth the crying need
throughout the counties of Maryland for
hospitals, or wards in hospitals now exist
ing. to care for patients suffering from the
dread disease. This is so necessary on
account Of the nature Of the disease and
the ease by which it Is communicated from
one to another.
The report Of the committee will be pre-
sented to the Charities and Corrections
Congress to meet at Annapolis January
81, 28 and 20. The meeting January 27.
evening session, will be addressed by John
Muir, Of New York City. who will tell of
the fine system Of hospitals now in opera
ton in thirty-three Of the counties Of New
York State. This number is being added
to as quickly as possible. looking to the
establishment Of a tuberculosis hospital
for each county. The need is even greater
in Maryland on account Of the large pro-
portion Of negroes. who are especially sus-
ceptible to the disease and who come into
contact with those affected in every phase
Of life. 1t is strongly hoped that this
session Of the Legislature may be induced
to grant Montgomery county protection.
