Editor, Times.
Sir: "This is a world of words, :"
and, as we approach May Day,
one particular word is perilously
near becoming a fearsorne buga-
boo. A negligible handful of a
very minor political party is by
some timorous souls pronounced
a national menace. So much so
that our Government refuses to
recognize a nation of $50, 200, 900
souls that have adopted that
party's tenets.
The mere mention of the word
Communism" even with bated
breath, is to make some timid
citizens shake in their shoes. It
may be well, therefore, to calm
our national nerves by realizing
that we already have measurable
Communism with us, and find 1t
not at all fearsome. Our young
est child is educated in a school
run on communistic principles,
for the free benefit Of all the
inhabitants of the U. S. A., rich
or poor, pennilesS or purse proud
After school days, education is
furthered by the reading Of books
from a common library. free for
all. Outdoor life can be enjoyed
in delightful parks maintained for
the delectation gratis of every
human being. Magnificent high.

no toll to pay. Our postoffice

Excess acid is the common

in pain and sourness about two

THE grandest scene painter in the world
Mother Nature herself-has been busy
in the Shenandoah Valley. At Winchester,
Virginia, will be held next week-Spring's
most beautiful pageant-the Apple Blossom
Festival, There, against natural background
that would shame any Suggesting, will be
held one of Americas famous annual holi-
days. Ifyou have never been to the Shenan-
doah Apple Blossom Festival leave dull care
behind and plan n0zO to drive there this year.
White locust trees will march along the
highway as you pass. Already yellow
honeysuckle chambers on rail fences. The
countryside is splashed as never before with
lilacs dogwood :. redwood and sweet
judas trees. And mile upon mile, like
patches on a crazy quilt, pink, white and
green, the Shenandoah apple orchards
drench the air with fragrance.
