Carol singing marked the ushering in of
Christmas at many places in Montgomery
county. 1t is practice inaugurated several
years ago by the Montgomery County So
cial Service League and has Eecome so
popular that there is believed to be no doubt
that it has come to stay. At Rockville
the singers gathered around the commu-
nifty Christmas tree in front of the high
school building and sang a number of
quaint old carols. and later visited all
sections of town and sang wherever the
sisnal-a light in the window-was shown.
Rev. P. Rowland Wagner, pastor of the
Baptist Church, was in charge. In the
Chevy Chase and Bethesda neiehborhoods
hundred children. who we're trained by
Mrs. James c. Adkins. were transported in
trucks from place to place and made the
night merry with their Yuletide cheer. At
Kensineton and other places the carolers
were busy.

REFUSED TO BOW TO KING
English Pin Manufacturers, Centuries
Ago, Shut Down Before They
Would Obey Royal Mandate.

What would happen in the United
States, where two thousand tons OF
pins are turned out every year II all
the pin factories closed down, as once
they did In England? In the thirty
fourth year OF Henry VIII complaints
were made of the inferior quality Of
the pins supplied to the public, and
in consequence parliament enacted
that none should be sold "unless they
be double headed, and have the heades
sOudered taste to the shanke Of the
pynne, etc" The result was that the
public could obtain no pins until the
act was repealed three years later.
The act of repeal having recited the
former act, patheticaily admits that
the attempt to control the pin indus
try had proved failure. "For as
much since the making Of said act
there hath been scarcltee of pynnes
within this realme, and the kynge's
llege people have not been wei nor
completely served Of such pynners nor
ar likely to be served In con-
sideratiOn whereof It male please the
klnge that 1t may be adjudged and
DENIED from hensforth frustrated and
initiated and to be repealed forever"
