an atmosphere marked by con-

Senate adopted an omnibus anti

The measure, known as the

bill was sent to a House Senate

The Senators, Republicans for
the most part, who pushed the

through were making a political

menace of Communism, liberal
observers agreed.

~~~'
The coming of spring brings much
JOY
To thrill the heart of girl and boy
Flowers bloom and birds all sing
To greet the coming Of the spring
The short days slowly turn to long
And birds come back to sing theil
song.
The sun warns the earth with
glorious rays
And the grass grows long for cat
tie to Craze.
All manner of nature awakens
from its sleep
To welcome the spring with its
beauty deep.
Trees and plants begin to sprout
And the once-frozen brook again
flows out.
The farmers begin plowing and
preparing their fields
And sowing the seeds for the
seasons yields.
The sun peeps out Of the blue,
cloudless sky
And the soft gentle breezes pass
quietly by.
The winter Is past with ice and
its cold
And the spring has come for all
to behold.
With its beautiful blossoms and
birds bringing cheer,
So rejoice. all nature. for spring is
now here.

Pupil Raises College Funds
In Local Business Venture
By Noble 6. Ricketts,
Photo by tAe Aushor

Summer vacations for Walter E.
Hess, Jr,. -. Of 66O5 Exfair road
Bethesda, are steps toward a COL
lege degree. Wally is a progressive
young businessman. who began a
neighborhood lawn-cutting busi-
ness last year by investing in a
small power lawn mower. The
money from this enterprise will
go toward college expenses.
Wally found that a good sales
talk is half of the battle. He solved
the problem of a lack of capital
by persuading his father. Walter
E. Hess. managing editor of the
High School Principals Division
of the District National Education
Association, to lend him money for
the mower. Then he canvaSsed
the neighborhood and. by the end
of last summer, had successfully
sold his services to IL homes on
regular basis, and to three addi-
tional ones part time.
Wally compares his business to
that of a barber. Although BAR
bers have year. round work and
his lawn-cutting is seasonal, Wally
says he wouldn't have time for
business during the winter, any
way. because of his studies and
athletics at ST. Adams School.
He feels that he has an advantage
over cutting hair with his sliding
scale of prices compared with the
BARRIERS fiat rates. Wally charges
from SITS to SO, depending on the
size of the lawn.
Working only in the mornings
and late afternoons allows Wally
time for recreation. This schedule
also enables him to beat the heat
of the day by working during the
cooler hours.
The profits 60 into Government
Savings Bonds. He now has SIX
$50 bonds and expects another
profitable season.
Wally is a member of the senior
choir of the Cathedral.

When some one speaks Of the
desert we are likely to think oil
two things-the sand and the
camel. There are reasons why
they have gone together" fol-
thousands Of years.
One reason, a very important
one, has to do with the shape OF
the camels foot. Most large ami
mails would sink deeply into the
sand of the desert, but the camel
does not.
The camers foot has two toes
and under the toes is broad
cushion. The cushion spreads out
so widely that the camel does not
sink much when walking or run
ming over the desert.
The camel's nose also is fitted
for desert life. The nostrils car
be closed tightly when gust OF
wind whips up the sand; this saves
the beast from breathing in grains
of sand at such a time.
Camels can eat almost any plant
or plant product. In that regarc

There is little creek in Arkan-
sas that has a funny name. There
is an Indian story Of how the creek
got its name.
Once in Arkansas there was a
tribe of warlikee Indians. One
rainy night the warlike Indians
attacked another tribe who fled
over the creek which was just
about flooded. When the warlike
Indians got there the creek was
flooded and they could not get
across. The creek turned the war
and that is why it is called Turn

About this time every year
comes the dreaded spring house
cleaning in almost every home.
At my house this era began with
my father painting two of the
rooms. For a week everything in
the entire house smelled like
paint.
After this was over window
washing started. Every window
from the basement to the attic
was shined. However, We had one
notable goldbrick during this try
ing time. That was the dog. He
didn't care what happened around
him. Just so he got his food he
remained undisturbed.
But for every one else spring
cleaning is certainly the most
rugged month of the year.

Rain washing away the dust and
the CRIME
From house and flowers and
streets and trees;
Rain falling, falling for so long a
time;
Rain carried on balmy breeze,
Or driven by a wind gone wild;
Rain tending to cleanse, to
annoy. to sadden;
Rain keeping indoors the impa-
tient child;
Rain bringing back many old
memories.
Some of which have the power to
gladden.,
But most of which will never
please
The distraught minds which can
not bear
The thought Of friendship lost
The reminder of those who for us
did care
But now are gone, we know not
where.
