Hello, Greenbelt:
know you will be sorry to hear
that, while Patty Beebe is a little
better, she is still very sick. She
can't receive visitors yet, but If
you've been wondering where to
send card, just address it to her
at Doctors Hospital.
The Fair was a tremendous sue
cess from every angle, wasn't it?
There were almost as many out
of-towners as there were Green
belters! Among them were: Mrs.
Clara Porter and her son, Neil
Porter, who were visiting Mrs.
Porter's nephew, Roscoe Melton.
and his wife, Maxine, of 18-F

They said they thought Greenbelt
"a grand place." and thoroughly
enjoyed every minute of their
visit, including their lake visit
Saturday night, the Fair, our
lovely swimming pool, and the
whole Greenbelt community.-My
weekend guests, Mr.. and Mrs.
William Koontz, of Washington,
didn't arrive in time for the fair,
but they did enjoy Sunday and
Monday in Greebelt.
Speaking of the Fair Gas who
isn't?) aren't you glad you don't
have to make baby dresses like
the one shown at the Fair in the
oddities display?
We told you last week that
Claire Warner was coming back,
but we neglected to say that
George was coming with her.

Odds-and-ends Department.: A
new style may be started in
Greenbelt after the girls get a
look at the very becoming hair-do
Mary Claire Bonham is sporting.
What well-known GreenbeIt
lady was the victim of a meany in
"a Washington department store?
A large sum of money which she
laid on the counter was stolen
while she momentarily looked the
other way.-It'll happen every
time! August, which is supposed to
be the hottest month of the year,
had so many cool days that a
great many people preferred
sweaters to bathing-su Now
that the pool is closed, hot wealth
er returns with a vengeance.
1t is to be hoped that those who
are away will be able to wade
through the fiiers piled up in front
