Life in the Country
Dry Well Forces Borrowing Water,
But Cows Have Particular Tastes

We have a small problem on our
hands on The 40 Acres-about $50
geese. some temperamental cows
and a dry well.
It's just one Of those things that
add Zest to life in the country. I
suppose that if the well hadn't
gone dry, something else would
have happened. Anyway. water
becomes terribly important when
you haven't any. To make things
worse. the local weather prophets
look up at the sky, shake their
heads. and doubt if we are going
| to get any rain before October or
November.
It was like that back in 1880,
they say. when the country dried
up just like this year and there
wasn't any moisture until the No
vember rains. 1t is so dry now
that found dust the other day
when I dug a 2-foot-deep post
hole.

Tweed had a big barrel and there

the Pickens place next door.
I got the barrel swabbed out and
loaded on the trailer and went
after water. For the geese it was
f1ne-they will drink anything wet
but the cows took a Whit or so
and turned up their noses. Too

thing.
So, we are watering the geese
from the barrel and managing to

Many gardeners admire the
American holly and wish to have
ia specimen in their garden. The
American holly is an excellent
evergreen and the berries are
traditional. Do not plant a holly
where it will be exposed to winter
winds. Windswept trees are often
defoliated. Winter sun is ususally
blamed for this condition, which
is called "scorch" or burn" but
| it is caused by severe transpira-
ton brought on by strong winds
Hollies are shade lovers but viii,
thrive in full sun If protected
from winter winds.
Hollies, hemlocks and other
moisture loving evergreens should
be planted in a slight depression
rather than have the soil moundeo
up about them. The mounds drain
the rainfall away from the roots
The depression retains moisture
and allows it to soak into the root
area.
1t is not too late to SOW grass
seed, but that chore should not
be postponed much longer if the
grass plants are to be well rooted
and able to withstand the pull
of winter freezing and thawing

Senate Crime Committee Formally Closes Hearings

WASHINGTON, (P) Racket eers and gamblers sought by the Senate Crime Investigating Com nittee can breathe a little easier now as the group which threw a spotlight on many top underworld figures and won nation wide ac- claim for it, formally closed down it's open hearings late Saturday.
 The committees life still has two weeks to run.
 But chairman O'Conor D-MO said these would be devoted en- tirely to writing final report, due by Sept. l, and pushing IS legislative recommendations.
 Subpoenas and arrest warrants issued by the crime probers will not expire until the committee does. But the lawmakers indicated that no further searches would be made since the witnesses would not be heard if found.

WAUKEGAN, Il.,(P) - Pvt. Karl Stanke, former member of the German Luftwaffe, is viewing army life again-from behind a U. s. Army uniform. He was drafted.
 Stanke, 20, trained as glider pilot in BreSlau at IA. On April 23, l945, he went AWOL from the German army near the French border. He stayed with a German farmer near Baden. In 1850, an aunt, Florence Schmidt of Ra- cine, Wis, sent necessary papers to have her nephew brought to the United States.

Nome Scrap Iron Arrives In Seattle

SEATTLE, (P) - Heavy chunks of scrap iron, dating back 50 years to the gold rush, were being un- loaded in Seattle on Monday, shipped here from Alaska as raw material for war production.
 An estimated 2,OOO tons of the scrap metal, gathered in the Nome area by Charles Esch, Seattle scrap iron "prospector," made up the shipment, brought here aboard an LIST for Bethlehem Pacific Steel Corp.
 Esch, who guards the location of the scrap metal as though it were the gold for which he once mined in Alaska, said there is at least from 5000 to 5000 more tons lying abandoned within a 100-mile radius of Nome.
 "You can trace the evolution of mining equipment from the gold days up to the present in the stuff you find" he said.
 Esch explained that much of it would have to piled up in the fall, then carried out over the snow on sledS.

Mail Carrier, rs,
Sets Pace For
Younger Men

John B. Ely of Gaithersburg is
an example of staying young after
seventy. Mr.. Ely, who was 76 in
January, not only looks like a man
of so, he works like one. Since
1912 he has been with the Post
Office Department in the town and
recently has been extra man on
the door-to-door postal service.
Carrying mail once each week in
the Observatory Heights section, he
steps as briskly as the younger
postmen. His friends attribute his
youthful spirit to forgetfulness of
self and willingness to help others
in trouble.
A member of Epworth Methodist
Church for many years, Mr.. Ely at
one time held nine positions in the
church which included sexton, Sun
day School teacher, choir member,
superintendent of the church
school, superintendent of the Junior
and Epworth Leagues, trustee,
steward, member of the Board Of
Directors and exhorter. He still
holds his teaching position with a
class of young boys.
Back in the late 1905 when Mr..
Ely was living with his family of
nine brothers and four sisters near
Baltimore, he was a member of
Bunyon's Pilgrim Band which gave
illustrated lectures on the life of
Christ and the book of Pilgrims
Progress.
Mr.. Ely's visits to Gaithersburg
began when his brother, Charles
E. Ely was preacher at Epworth
Church. 1t was then that he met
the former Miss Essie Crawford
who finally convinced him Gathers
burg was good place in which to
live. He became assistant man
ager of the Equitable Life Insur-
ance Company in 1906, having join
ed the company in 1904. Mr.. Ely
and his wife were married in 1906
and for thirty-three years he work
ed with the Equitable Company,
travelling back and forth to Wash
ington on the early commuters
train. He was on the train the
morning it left a siding just be-
low Forest Glen when an east
bound express plowed into it from
behind.
Claiming the distinction of hav-
ing attended a continuous service
at Grace Methodist Church longer
than any person in the vicinity,
Mr.. Ely tells of the time he at
tended Jenny Smiths Evangelistic
services soon after the present
church was built. The service
began at 6 am. and lasted until
8 pm. Mr.. Ely says he left this
service for only half an hour dur
ing the middle of the day. ;
In the cozy apartment of Mr..
and Mrs. Ely on Diamond avenue
are oil paintings that he did in
his youth. Subjects range Hfrom
religious paintings to- realistically
done farm animals A tiny nina
ture done at the turn of the CEN
fury shows much feeling and
warmth, the colors still true.

Referring last week to these
state appointments. Vice Premier
Zdenek Fierlinger, who heads the
state Office for church affairs,
hailed them as marking "the
gradual characterization of the
Catholic Church and its hierarchy
in CZechoslovakia."
In its step-by-step procedure.
the Prague government has gained
control of the church's entire ad-
ministration and of priests serv-
ing the church in a supervisory
capacity.
Four Bishops Included.
Among them are the four
bishops in Kosice, Hradec Kralove
Trnava and Litomerice, whose ac-
ton in swearing loyalty to the
Communist regime created con-
siderable surprise in Catholic cir
Icles abroad. and is generally be-
lieved to be due to severe pressuia
and coercion.
AS the situation stands, the
Catholic Church in Czechoslovak-
ia. because of unrelenting Com
munist maneuvers, is now divided
into two camps-one headed by
Ideposed Archbishop Beran and
most of the Czechoslovak bishops,
and the other by ecclesiastical dig
nitarieS whose acceptance of
church Offices at the governments
hands in defiance of Vatican au-
thority placed them under the
faint of schism.
Prompted by the government
the schismatic group is now en-
gagged in a conlpaign to recruit
students for the State seminaries
at Prague and Bradshaw, and is
urging loyal Catholic layman
and even Communist state school
teachers to take special courses to
equip them as religious teachers.
| The Vatican, meanwhile. has
again raised it's voice against
