ARLINGTON Girl S FoH to Death
From Car HoIts Easter Trip
Child, 5, Tumbles
From Door Of Sedan
Driven by Mother

The Easter weekend trip of an
Arlington family came to tragic
halt yesterday when 5-year-old
Alice Pembroke Ludwig fell from
the rear door of a four door Sc
dan driven by her mother, Mrs.
Mary F. Ludwig.
The accident occurred on the
Leesburg pike about miles east
of Dranesville shortly after the
family of four had left for an
Easter vacation with relatives in
Winchester.
Alice was riding in the rear seat
with her 3-year-old sister Martha.
Mrs. Ludwig, who was driving, and
her husband, Robert E. Ludwig,
were in the front seat.
Mr.. Ludwig said his daughter was
attempting to throw a piece OF
paper out of the rear window when
the weight of her body apparently
caused the door to fly open. Her
skull was fractured by the fall and
she died instantly, according to
Fairfax County police. The younger
daughter remained in the rear seat
unharmed.
The body of the little girl was
taken to Ives funeral home, 2S47
Wilso.a boulevard, Arlington. Funeral
services will be held tomorrow in
Winchester, Mr. Ludwig said. A

cient city of Bethany where in
the house of Lazarus, the prac-
tical, strong-willed Martha
and her quiet, gentle sister,
Mary, importune their city's
most able physician to bring
back Lazarus from the brink
of death. But the man of med
icine is helpless. Finally, the
resolute Martha, despite the
gentle pleadings of Mary that
they must not summarily call
upon the Master, dispatches a
messenger to distant Samaria
to solicit His aid. But He re-
ceives their message in silence
and their bearer returns be-

Mary's deep rooted faith
clings to the power and mercy
of the Master.

''Why Zion is a Friendly City"
BY Carlton Farley
Throughout this fair city of
ours we see many reasons why
it is such a friendly place.
Among these reasons is the
comparative smallness of this
city makes it easy for us to
meet and know many people,
who, when we are in trouble,
always find a way to help us
out. For instance, my mother
was sick recently which left
my father, sister and me to do
the cooking, homework, and
washing. Our friends showed
kindness by many times send
ing over hot dishes of food and
even inviting us over to eat
with them. One lady came and
did the Homework and other
things. Another came and did
the washing.
The way somebody always
comes and helps you when you
get stuck or when you have
flat tire on the car is an ex-
ample of our city's friendli-
ness.
The churches have CO.
operated in putting on pro-
grams, for I noticed that the
highly successful Easter sun
rise service was put on by all
of the churches and also near
ly all the churches had their
Christmas programs on differ
ent nights. In any one of our
churches we feel an atmos-
phere of friendliness which
some churches outside of Zion
does not have.
Another reason is, we have
an excellent P. T. A. system
with meetings held each
month.

Said Needed In

The need for at least one Sea
Scout unit in Pascagoula, TO round
out the scouting and youth pro-
gram here. was told the Pasca-
goula Kiwanis club Tuesday by

a unit.
The speaker, who was introduce
ed by L. L. Stigler, commented on
the recent formation of Youth,
Inc, the organization meeting for

He declared that the problem of
juvenile delinquency is as old as
history itself.
He said that the moral fibre OF
the American home had broken
down in this generation and that
some substitute for home life
must be devised for the younger
generation. He CLAIMED the un-
rest and false prosperity of the
war years for many Of the ills
now being suffered.
Mr.. Gautier said that scout
ing is not the sole answer by any
means as many boys are not tenn
permentally suited to the exact
ing demands of Scout work. He
explained a few fundamentals of
scouting to the group.

at the meeting and he, w. r.
