1oday, despite higher taxes and higher
living costs, we are being asked to step up
our savings ''to help stop Infation.'' Does
this make sense?
Yes! Here's why:
Last year, after the Korean war started. the
American people drew on their savings, to the extent
OF several billion dollars over and above their cur
rent income, to buy goods. In addition, they did
more buying on credit than usual This created an
abnormal demand for the supply of goods available,
and prices went up.
This demand is further increased now by the fact
that more people working and at increased wages.
But the defense effort necessarily reduces the
amount of consumer goods that can be bought. So
to keep prices from going still higher, we must hold
our buying down to normal needs by spending less
and saving more.
Price controls can help "hold the line' tempo
rary But they can't cure Imitation because basical
y it is the increased income and our willingness to
spend more that keeps pushing prices up
live cut out certain things, and buy only w,sot ue
absolutely haze to boue right now, we help keep prices
fromrisng further. Whatwe don't tspend we save. and
thus build reserve for ourselves and our families
Saving more now is important to you-and to the
country. Your savings are used in great part to han

more goods for all of us. Our savings in this way
help check Imitation.
X X X
SO it is important to save today-for our own fll.
ture-as an aid to the defense effort-and as a
definite check on Imitation
Five more things that must be done check Imitation,
l. Increase production: To meet military needs,
provide civilian necessities help keep prices down.
2. Cut non-military government expenditures:
To provide money for vital military needs and to
hold down, as much as possible, further borrowing
and further tax increases.
8. Support taxes needed to put our Government
on "pay-as-you-go' basis
4 Accept controls: To assure military materials
and to keep prices down by reducing competition
for these materials.
5. Buy only for real needs: We must prevent bid
ding against each other for scarce goods.
None of these things will be easy for any of us
to do. But everybody will agree that it's worth
sacrificing to prevent the Sixth Column Enemy
INFLATION-from bleeding our economy.

 How did Brunner happen to choose this unusual trade? It all dates back to the days when he was a boy in Manitowok, Wiscon- sin. There he liked to hunt and fish more than anything in the world. Even then he tried a little mounting-just for fun. When injury to his legs following a plane crash during boot training in World War II threatened to terminate his fun as a hunter, taxidermy seemed to offer prac. tical substitute.
 As soon as Brunner finds lare- CT quarters 40-foot-souare workshop with a basement be- low would about suit his needs he hopes to expand his business by getting fur dealers license, ana making fur products for sale to tie public. With requests al- ready on hand, he figures he can keep five or six persons en- ployed on projects ranging from fur rugs and neckpieces to tanned leather for use in garments.

 Brunner Trophies Go Places
 Skins from other fur animals are also made into handsome tro- phies. This year Brunner has all ready made into rugs and neck pieces about a dozen each of wolverine, lynx and wolf skins and a half dozen foxes. Some times these skins are purchased from trappers, and sometimes hunters bring them back.
 Many of these trophies will re- main in the Valley.

their hunting and fishing trophies to Brunner's workshop since word got around through guides and local hunters that a professional taxidermist had set up business in the heart of Alaska's hunting grounds. According to Brunner's knowledge, he is the only pro- fessional taxidermist in the Ter ritory.
 When Brunner first settled in Palmer, following a trip to AL aska in l949 for the purpose of lining up an ideal location, he thought his professional work would have to be merely a side line until he could get "estah- lished." In order to make ends meet during this interim period, he found employment at the Matanuska Experiment Station. Shortly after the 1850 fall hunting season, however. he found that he had full time job on his hands.
 Trained in Hollywood
 Brunner came to Alaska follow ing five years apprenticeship as a student at the Colburn Taxider- my Studio in Hollywood, where he worked on many props" used in the filming of authentic animal life. He made the crocodile with which Johnny Weismuller fought

LoytonsWIIe Church Once
A Part Of Rockville Parish

Now that it has sold its share
in the rectory at Olney, the last
tie has been severed between st.
Barthclomew's Church, the first
church to be built in st. Bar
tholomew's Episcopal parish in
Upper Montgomery County, and
the other two churches of the par
ish, St. Johns at Olney and st.
Luke's, Brighton.
Three separate churches, each
with it's own vestry, they had
shared a minister for over one
hundred years and been considered
one parish. Several years age the
other two churches decided to
withdraw from the association
with the mother church-just be-
fore the Rev. Arthur LeBarron
resigned as rector of the parish.
Since that time the Olney, and
Brighton churches have called
rector who ministers to them joint
ly and st. Bartholomew, not able
to support an ordained minister
alone, has been served by various
young men from the Episcopal
Seminary at Alexandria, Va.
The first church in st. Barthol-
omew's Parish was built very near
the site of the present st. Luke's
so we are told. In 1853 a petition
signed by Browns, Gartrells, Crit
fiths, Riggs, Davises and others,
was presented to Gov. Sharpe and
his council, asking permission to
lay off a parish and erect a
chapel of Ease" on a branch of
the Patuxent called Rawlings
River. This seems to be all the rec
ord that exists until the year of
1912 when the first entry was
made in an old register still in use
at St. Bartholomew Church. At
that time there was no mention of
church, but the parish was well
established as names are given of
some of the wardens and other
officers who served before that
date.
The first vestry meeting re-
corded in 1912, was held in Bow
mans Store with Fred Bowman
acting as secretary. Those elected
were Thomas Davis, Ephraim Cal

Funeral Services Held
Last Week For County
Building Contractor

Funeral services for William
Floyd Burris, 81, Montgomery
County building contractor and
construction engineer, were held
last Wednesday at the Warner E.
Humphrey Funeral Home, Silver
Spring. Interment was in Airing
ton National Cemetery. Mr.. Bur-
Kiss died on Sunday, March at
Homeopathic Hospital after several
months illness. He lived at 1902
Croydon Court, Silver Spring.
Mr.. Burris was born in Laytons-
vile. He attended Richardson
Preparatory School and George
Washington University. In World
War l he served in the Army
Medical Department. During
World War II he was associated
with the Federal Works Admins
tration as construction engineer
returning to private contracting in
May 1919.
For many years Mr.. Burris was
active in the Metropolitan Me-
mortal Methodist Church, and be-
fore his death was connected with
Wcodside Methodist Church.
Surviving are his widow, the
former Henrietta L. Watson, a
District Public School teacher; a
son, Leighton l.. Burris, Navy sea-
man second class, stationed at
Roosevelt Roads Naval Base,
Puerto Rico, and four brothers and
five sisters.

1t is interesting to note that the
Bowma'ns Store mentioned in the
record is now the living room at
Fair Hill Farm, the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Edwin Fry, mile east
of the present town of Laytons-
vile. The church which was built
in May 1918 was situated on what
now seems to be an isolated place
not far from the Fry home. The
only traces left of that structure
are few lonely graves on the hill
side
The present church in Laytons-
vile was consecrated just one hum
dred years to the day after the
conservation of the church of
Rawlings River. The Rawlings
River Church was dynamited and
much of the stone used in the
Laytonsville structure. At the last
service held in the old church we
are told that Mrs. Vernon Dyson
was confirmed and Henry Riggs
mrs. Robert Chichester, was bap-
tised.
From it's beginning, the church
on Rawlings River was associated
with the one at Rock Creek, (sub-
sequently Rockville) in the en-
ployment of minister. Previously
the whole county was comprised by
Prince Georges Parish. According
to minutes in the old register, in
1843 the rector, Rev. Levin ].
ellis seems to have caused the
severance of St. Bartholomew
from the Rockville Church by an
nouncing from the pulpit (and this
from the pulpit" is underscored)
his resignation of the charge of
st. Bartholomew, in a way ESQ
the record implies) that gave no
little otfense to the good people of
Laytonsville congregation. When
the church at Rockville by still ac-
cepting his services seemed to JUS
tify Mr.. Gillis's conduct-es-
trangement-if not resentment,
(the record smacks of the latter)
ensued. In 1874 the Rev. o. Hut
ton DID. was called to minister to
st. Bartholomew and what was
described as "the recently erected
chapel at Mechanicsville" -now
Olney. After some contention the
Rockville Church paid st. Bar
tholomew's 800 for its share in
the rectOry in Rockville.
DR.. Hutton seems to have stayed
until after the War Between the
States. The records are fragmen-
tary at this period. The War had
serious effect on the congregation
the line between North and
South was very thin.
There is note Of the resignation
of part of the vestry to join the
Southern Army and then no rec
ords at all until after the War.
An article written for the Sen
tinel in 1881 tells of the building
of a chapel at Unity which once
stood beside the house Miss Ber-
tina Brown now owns. 1t also tells
of the building of the church at
Brighton between the years 1868
to 1874 "due greatly to the en-
ergy and devotion Of the Rev.
Thomas Duncan"
Unity Chapel was demolished
about thirty years ago-St. Johns
Chapel has become a very impor-
tant church, and st. Luke's has
greatly outgrown the mother
church Of st. Bartholomew.

Science Has No
Cure For The
Common Cold

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4 (INS)-
There still is no cure for one of
the costliest of all ailments-The
common cold.
DR.. Normal H. Topping, Assist
ing Surgeon General of the u. s..
Public Health Service, gave this
conclusive answer today in a copy
righted interview in the U. S. News
and World Report.
DR.. Topping said that all of the
popular remedies = "cold Shots"
oral vaccine, onion soup, fruit
Juices or bicarbonate of soda with
lemon juice = have proved inef-
fectual.
He reported that considerable
progress" in virus research has
been made in the past ten years
and an intensive scientific cam
paign can yield more information
in the next ten years.
But, he added, the U. S. Public
Health Service would need about
S5OO,OO0 for full-scale research.
He said the National Institute OF
Health is spending less than $780,
900 this year.
DR.. Topping said that public in
ertia is responsible for tagging re-
search. He said that funds are a.
valuable for research in cancer,
heart trouble or polio because the
public fears these diseases. He
added:
"But people are not afraid Of a
common cold"
