Coal Was Created
Before Human Advent

What is coal? How was it made?
Well, it all started many millions
of years ago. in what is called the
CarbOniferous Period We some
times call it the Coal Age. The
climate was very warm and moist
all over the earth. There we're
heavy rains. Plants grew fast and
lu%uriantly, especially in swampy
areas.
In our country, these great
sWamps extended in all directions
to where we find coal today in
what is now Pennsylvania and
the whole Appalachian range, the
middle Atlantic states, the Rocky
Mountains, and even the far away
Pacific Coast. The forest trees
rescmblcd giant ferns, reeds, and
MOSES, rising to heights of 100 to
100 feet, and many feet in dame
ter. Other trees looked much like
enormous ferns, climbing so feet
into the air.
Everything was green and lush
IN this strange world. The giant
trees. ferns, grasses, insect life
and other creatures, died, fell into
the sv'amps and became part of
the sea life buried there Heavy
rains washed soil and sand from
high places into the sWampy low
lands. Land gradually sank. The
great inland seas advanced and
covered up these peat-like boys
keeping out air and bacteria that
cause decay. Again conditions on
the earth changed The land was
raised UP and once more forests
grew, flourished, and died. Again
the land sank and the seas ad-
vanced.
This process continued over and
over through untold thousands of
ears. The sunshine, whose
warmth and magic made these
forests, was buried with the vege-
tation. Slowly the forests piled up
ore atop Of the other, the peat
layers began changing into some
thing we now call Ignite, and the
enormous deposits of dead leaves,
branches, trunks, insect life, and
sea life were transformed slowly
INTO coal and other minerals.

Iced tea will look pre:tier if it's
served with cubes made with
slice of lemon and a slice of orange
plus sprig of mint.
Deviled eggs are a welcome sight
on the salad plate, if they're made
extra nourishing and tasty by mash
ing some deviled ham with the
yolks before refilling the whites.
Lemonade can be just one OF
those beverages, but everyone will
perk up at the sight of a glass of
lemonade which has been tinted
pink with maraschino cherry juice
Brings to mind the circus!

ELSIE WHITE HAINES

wildly recalls her trip on camel
from the Sphinx to the Great Py-
ramid of Egypt, will tell about her
experience on the hour long
WGA.Y Story Time program, Sun
day morning, January 20 from
to 9 A. M. The interview will be
conducted by Big Brother Bill, di-
rector of children's programs for
WGAY, Silver Spring.
Jean was the first baby born to
a Navy family in Egypt. Her ia
Their is Chief Petty Officer Del
Thrasher of the Navy Medical
Dept. Chief Thrasher was station
ed in Egypt during the cholera
epidemic in 1916 where he was
engaged in research on the disease.
Jean was born in March 1947 at
the Anglo-American Hospital in
Cairo.
On her boat trip to the United
States, Jean visited Athens, Pom
peii, Naples, Pisa, Genoa and Mar
seille. She has a collection of dolls
from each of the countries she
visited and will bring several of
them to Big Brother Bill to de-
scribe to her listeners. She will also
describe her experience at Pisa
where she rang the bell in the
Leaning Tower. The Thrasher
family now is living at 40 Strath-
more Avenue, Glen Echo Heights.
This should be very interesting
program.
We feel that this county is es-
pecially fortunate in having such
well balanced programs for both
children and adults on it's local
stations WGAY and WBCC. Uncle
Brooke Johns program on the lat
ter station every day is slanted to
bring entertainment to children in
a safe and sane manner. Both sta
tons apparently avoid the horror
stories too often heard on larger
stations.

away in Israel will provide cute
young sergeant in the Chen (Wo-

all-expenses-paid trip to the Uni
ted States and this famed Hub

The amazing story of a gener-
Gus American manufactures sur
prise plan was unfolded here this
week. It began months ago when
Fred Monosson, visited Israel. AS
fate would h ave it Monosson,
raincoat manufacturer was to
view the Chen parading in the
rain. They were not wearing rain
coats.
Inquirying, the manufacturer
learned that there were no rain
coats for the Chen. Once back in
Boston, Monosson, a prominent
Zionist, set to work manufacture
ing samples. He forwarded them
to Israel where the Quartermaster
Corps of the Chen approved the
model. With the assistance of an
other plant, Monosson's firm sup
piled the entire Chen with rain
coats.
But it didn't quite satisfy the
generous Zionist. With the ap-
proval of the Vice-Mayor of Jeru-
salem, Reuven Shribman, Monos-
son hit the idea of placing a note
in the pocket of one of the thous-
ands of raincoats, making possible
a trip to the United States for

Top Court Ruling May Affect the Issei

WASHINGTON, D. c., May s.
tADC)-The Supreme Courts 5-to-
decision that the Attorney Gener-
al may not list an organization as
subversive without first giving it a
hearing, may have a far-reaching
effect on some japanese aliens in
this country, Mike Masaoka, ma
tional JACL ADO legislative direct
or, said this week.
Twenty-one Japanese organiza-
tons, all of which ceased to exist
in 1941, have been listed by the At
torney General as totalitarian.
Under the Internal Security Act
of 1850, mere past membership in
such a prescribed organization con-
ceivably could result today in an a.
liens deportation, or subject a ma
turalized citizen to Standardization
proceedings.
Masaoka said that while only a
comparatively few Japanese here
belonged to prescribed organiza-
tons before the war, and many were
innocent members who joined pri-
marily for social reasons, the pas
sage of the Internal Security Act
has raised troublesome question
about their status

of almost 200 organizations, chiefly
Communist.
Now, apparently this list must bt
dropped unless the government il
