The Stofe's Second City Has Gala Day

Saturday gala day for Silver Sprng-with the
opening of its viaduct and the dedication of
Stadium for its Montgomery Blair High School Attend
ace at the parade and other events of the day est
mated up to 10000
Montgomery County should be proud Of the fact that
the second city, of the State lies within its borders
When the Sentinel established in 1855 Silver Spring
was only the estate of Francis P. Blajr-even Silver
Spring Station came later.
Silver Spring is a town-it has few inhbitions-
it has not allowed its traditions to retard it's growth
even the sparkling mica spring that provided the
has been dried up in the path of progress Mistakes
have been made in Silver Spring planning its first
underpass was glarng = but the town just ac-
knowledges its errors shakes its head and starts over
again. Silver Spring would long ago have corrected the
teup of traffic that Rockville has endured for years.
Silver Spring is not without sentiment, however.
Tradition is preserved in the of streets and build
ings - Montgomery = Blair = Gist = Lee = Moves =
FentOn Roeder and many others are names of families
who have helped build the town.
In the Montgomery County Sentinel of December 20,
1882 = &c years ago = Thomas Anderson and William
v Bouic Jr trustees offering tracts of land
for sale at Silver Spring Station, about 55 acres in
all. AS the land is all included in the present Silver
Spring, probably could estimate the present
worth of the SIS acres.
The old weekly, which seems to be growing
younger = salutes the city and its many enter
prises.

f{etter Box

Mrs. Else Haines,
Editor, The Sentinel,
Rockville, Md.
Dear Mrs. Haines;
The Rockville Chamber of Com
merce will hold its first fall meet
ing next Monday night, September
20, in the Rockville fire house.
Election of officers for the coming
year will be held and l hope chat
your good paper which has given
the Chamber such good support
during my two years as president
will urge that all Rockville bust
ness men attend this election and
choose those men for office who will
carry on and improve the working
of the chamber. There is much to
be done in our good town and il is
only through strong Chamber Of
Commerce that the interest of the
business man is brought to light.
All actions of the Chamber are
considered the actions of the towns
business men and certainly they
should attend it's meetings and help
to form its policies.
The best time to start is at the
election of the officers who will
control the business of the Cham
Der. The proof of the Importance
of the function of the Chamber of
Commerce can be seen by just
casting an eye about a town. In all
parts of the nation the Chamber of
Commerce is looked upon as the
towns most reliable business mems
organization. l close my two years
as president with the same words
used when first elected: "A town is
only as strong as it's Chamber of
Commerce. So let all interested
business men and women of Rock
vile attend this meeting, Monday
night P. M, and elect those who
can best serve them. l again wish
to thank you and Louis Leimbach
and ali of your staff for the sup
port that you have given us and l
am sure that our work has made
good town better.
Yours very truly,
CLAYTON GASQUE,
President, Rockville Chamber
of Commerce.
