ment about tripled and all who
Joined the classes enjoyed them
very much. May I thank you

$50 many men and women.
The adult education department
at Kensington Junior High School
has added more classes in a
variety of subjects of interest to
men and women. and if you have
the space in the column, I am
sure the readers will be happy to
know about them.
The school has already opened
for registration, but persons may
register late on Mondays or
Wednesdays.
The courses follow: Ceramics.
art metalcraft, health training for
men and women. millinery, water
color and oil painting, clothing
construction, interior decoration
and Americanization classes for
displaced persons.
The classes will be held on Mon
day and Wednesday nights. The
cost to each pupil is very low and
there is a great deal of pleasure
and relaxation to be gained by all
who join. Residents of Mary
land. the District and Virginia
are welcome.
Thank you for helping the
Kensington Junior High School to
get this information to your
thousands of readers.
QUERIES?
HINT.
(Front Mrs. J. C. c., SilUer Spring.
I enjoy the RICH very much and
find it very helpful. It really
should be called The Good Neigh
bors' Club"
Now, have some questions to
ask,
First. how to amuse four-year-
old. She does not like to play by
herself when she cannot go out.
She is continually asking ques-
tions, but she really does not seem
to care about the answer. She
does not seem to want to even try
to concentrate on anything and
is very impatient with things she
can't do well. She just won't |
bother with anything. Can any
one suggest any kind of toys II
might buy to get her interested
IN things or games to play with
her?
I have five-month- old baby
who takes up quite a bit of my
time. Could this be the reason
why my older child seems to want |
attention all the time? Do help
me!
Now will the person who wrote
in the directions for growing
Strawberries in a barrel please
send them in again for me- r
want very much to find out how
this is done.
Can you take crayon markings
off wall paper? How do you 60
about it?
I have one hint to offer: When
wiping up baby's "burp-ups" mix
a little baking soda in with the
water you clean it off with and
there will be no sour odor left.

BOWLING.
From Mrs. T. J. H., Silver Spring. |
wonder if some of the readers
might be able to help me. Before
coming to Silver Spring, used to
belong to bowling league. I love
to bowl, but would much rather
bowl with a group or a ladies'
bowling league.
So far I have not met any one
interested in that sport. I was
wondering whom I might contact
or have contact me through the
