The Letter Box

The Editor,
Montgomery County Sentinel,
Rockville, Md.
Dear Sir:
My attention has been called to
the excellent print, in your issue
of October 10th, of the new mural
in the Rockville Post Office. The
scene appears to me well chosen
and excellently rendered. With
Sugar Loaf in it's background, it
has particular appeal for me.
l note in this connection the re-
ported statement of the Rockville
postmaster that "Sugar Loaf is a
local name, the recorded name for
the mountain is Mt. Ephraim"
Perhaps the general facts in this
connection would be of interest to
you.
The first written accounts of the
mountain were by Graffenried in
1712. In the German account the
baron refers to the mountain as
"Sugarlowe genannt, ais da hattie
die Form zines Fucker Stocks. In
the French account, the baron, with
fine consistency, states that the
mountain is nome accuse de sa
forme Sugarlove qui vent dire er
francois pain de sucre". You see
the baron indicates that the noun.
tain was already so named; un.
doubleday by the early hunters and
explorers, from down by the Bay
Sugar Loaf" the mountain con.
tinued, through the eighteenth anc
into the nineteenth century; on al
the maps; in all other records Of
those years. So far as my study
has gone.
Later came the Civil War-ano
the summit of the mountain wa:
occupied by a Signal Station Of
the Union Army. And throughout
the war, the mountain was called
Sugar Loaf. The reason being, Of
course, that such was its name.
Some time before the Civil War
one Eprhaim Harris acquired tn,
farm land about the crossing of {
couple of farm roads not far from
the southern base of Sugar Loaf
he first occupied a log cabin =
still standing. He later built /,
brick house = still standing. An,
a corner store. He called the spo
Mt. Ephraim.
Later, twenty five years or s.
ago, the store burned down. Today
neither of the houses are occupied
And so Mt. Ephraim ceased to b
such metropolis as it required
name. Wherefore the name ha
been removed from the presen
official maps of the United State
and of the State of Maryland. Ais,
OF the A. A. A. In fact, from
every current map and record.
| However, even while the two
house and a store communit,
OF Mt. Ephraim continued as such
and its name appeared on occas
ional maps, it was the name of on
of the little communities about tn
base of old Sugar Loaf = lik
Thurston or Park Mills. The nam,
was never applied to Sugar Loa
itself any more than Colorad,
Springs was ever applied to Pike
Peak.
Inasmuch as Rockville has chosel
a portrait of old Sugar Loaf as {
mural for its fine post office,
have thought that perhaps tn,
name of the sitter might be o.
interest. AS Baron Graffenriec
said, the mountain is known a.
Sugar Loaf.
Very truly yours,

A BUTTON-FRONT COTTON BROCK

Prettiness and efficiency are de- lightfully combined in this "practi- cally perfect" little dress to wear about the house. Pattern 179 is a Claire Tilden design, which means the greatest amount of style and ef- fort. That buttoning down the front is a popular feature with every woman for smartness, for hurry-up dressing and for easy, flat-spread ironing. The panel down the back gives slim flattery and is quick to stitch up too. All the bustline soft ness you need is given by the curved side bodice sections, with the full ness kept in place by shoulder dart ing, and above-the-waist gathering Scallops about the neckline and the short sleeves make for extra gaiety. You might outline the front bodice seams with ric-rac for colorful ef- fect-run more ric-rac down the back seams too, if you like. Let the sash comes from the sides to tie neatly in back. The Sewing Guide with its expert step-by-step advice will show you just how to save the most time in making this gay frock.
 Pattern 179 is cut in misses and women's sizes IA, IS, IS, 20. 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42 and A. Size 16 re- quires 4 yards 35 inch fabric and IA yards ric-rac.

What naughty, superior pose this young man wears! He hopes it will cover up the fact that he's not used to good society or good manners.
 But no ones fooled as he enters the room ahead of the girl he's es- corting, for a young man of back ground always lets a girl precede him - in entering room, an auto mobile, bus or theater.
 No, there's no substitute for etl- quette. The cold shoulder is given the young man who stays seated when a woman is introduced to him, who keeps his hat on when talk ing to girl on the street, who tootS his auto horn for his date'Ain- stead of ringing her doorbell.
 Nor will smart clothes win invita- tions for the girl who fails to say good bye to her hostess after party, who doesn't realize that she should start the conversation after being introduced to man, who doesn't know the etiquette of dating.

Household Hints
GlOrDing Yourself
Ry Alicia Hart
NEA Service Stan Writer

T
 A great many educators have de- plored the fac that altogether too few of Us learn to express ourselves well.
 They " that the individuals vocabulary should without forcing, develop and expand as he develops and grows mentally. But, they point out, most of us simply do not let our vocahularieS develop and ex- pand even when we are reading a great deal and otherwise expanding our mental capacities. They blame i it on plain lazinesS.
 FIRST, ELIMINATE
 ALL SLANG
 A pleasant speaking voice is a great asset to any woman, of course. A good vocabulary is an even great CT asset. It allows her, with the least possible effort, to make clear the meaning of any thought she wishes to convey to others. It makes for a more colorful individ- ual as well as more interesting one.
 The first step toward acquiring better knowledge of words and how to use them properly is to re- solve to eliminate all slang from your vocabulary Whenever you catch yourself starting to express your meaning with slang express sion, stop for second or two, even though the ause is awkward, and think of a perfectly good word or a phrase to be used instead.
 TRITE WORDS MAKE
 CONVERSATION FLAT
 Another excellent idea is to re- solve to stop using "very" so much. Exquisite" is a bette-:, superlative than "very nice" "Articulate' is a better descriptive term than "very good talker." Over-use of "very" tends to make your vocabulary fiat and colorless. Practice using all of the good words you know instead of over working a couple of hundred me- diocre ones. And, to learn new words, keep pencil and pad beside your chair when you are reading. Jot down unfamiliar words and

WHAT THAT TIRED FEELING
 MEANS

MEANS
 A good many individuals today who are intelligent enough to have some doubts that any particular connection really purifies the blood or acts as tonic still regard that tired feeling or chronic fatigue as a complaint which does not war rant seeking medical advice. They prefer to try this or that remedy suggested by Tom, Dick or Harry, and to muddle along like that until the trouble develops into something for which medical care is indis- pensable. Perhaps they fear the doctor would laugh at them if they consulted them with nothing more than tired feeling to complain of. Old time doctors did a good deal of such laughing to cover their in- competence.
 Chronic fatigue is nearly always a manifestation of disease or im- paired health and not just indol- ence. It is impossible to suggest many of the causes of that tired feeling, but it may do no harm to mention some of the common causes:
 The languor of the early teens

1 due to lack of an adequate intake of iodine.
 The hamilton of individuals suf- fering from hookworm infestation.
 The strange apathy in one not ordinarily so disposed produced by the anoxia of frequent or constant exposure to small amounts of car- bon monoxide in the air.
 Still too often overlooked because | it is not looked for or because the victim refuses to give the doctor the chance to look for it, is incip- tent pulmonary tuberculosis = a cause of that tired feeling" which is always a possible explanation in youth or adolescence.
 The shirtlessness of masked or unrecognized pellagra.
 The melancholic dull inactivity that comes over the woman in her thifties or early forties, who was formerly vivacious and cheerful, when her thyroid function slows down. A suitable iodin ration (for instructions for taking the Iodin Ration send stamped envelope bearing your address, often brings such persons back to normalcy in the course of a few months. Finally thi .A is kind of chronic fatigue or tired feeling which is to- day perhaps the commonest of all, and the only name we have for it is hypo-vitamin-osis, which means ill- ness or impairment of health due to insufficient intake of the essen tial vitamins Any or all vitamins, but principally vitamin B complex and vitamin D.
 / Characteristic or B-complex and D hypo-vitamin-osiS are glossitis (sore tongue) and defective nails. The tongue is red, shiny, pointed instead of broadly rounded as it is in the healthy individual and usual- ly feels sore or burns more or less the victim ascribes the soreness or burning to acid fruits or other items of diet. The nails grow too slowly, and present transverse ridging, pitting, fragility and thin ness and more or less spooning.
 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
 Scurvy
 Is it possible for patient on a strict diet for gastric ulcer to get scurvy? (S.A.H.)
 Arswer-Yes. Platt reported four cases of scurvy Oondon Lancet. Aug. 3, '36), one in woman who had "dieted" herself, three in pa- tientS who had followed diets for gastric ulcer. It is important to supplement any restricted diet with vitaminS.
 Foul Breath
 I am unable to find the cause for my bad breath. The doctor said everything in nose and throat seem- ed normal. I have one or two very small cavities. (Mrs. H.W0
 Answer-A wee cavity may be re- sponsible for a bad breath. Why neglect small cavities anyway? Have them treated without delay.
 Concealing Scar
 Had operation for harelip when six years old. It was perfect suc- cess except for the small white scar, at the line of the lip, which is no- ticeable as my complexion is rather ruddy. (B. T. M Answer-The skin over the scar may be tattooed to match the sur- rounding skin-of course this is a job for the plastic surgeon or skin specialist, not for tattoo artist"
 Paternity
 I'm nineteen. 6 feet tall, weigh l72 pounds. In infancy was oper- ated on for rupture and one testis was removed. Otherwise seem to be normal. Could I marry and be- come father? (PEM)
 Answer-Removal or loss of one testiS does not affect potency or | fertility, provided the remaining tes- tis is normal.
