IN MEMORY

In sad yet loving remembrance
of our Dad, John o. Shattuck,
who passed away nine years ago,
October 2, 1912. Also our moth
er, Mrs. Rufina Shattuck, who
passed away 212 years ago on
April 10, 1949.
The faces we loved are now
laid low,
Their loving voices are still,
The hands so often clasped in
ours,
Lies now in deaths cold chill.
We often sit and think of them,
When we are all alone,
For memory is the only thing,
That grief can call its own.
Before our eyes, they faded,
Growing weaker every day,
Doing all we could to save
them,
Until God took them away.
Never shall we cease to love
them,
Never shall their memory fade
Sweetest love for ever fingers,
Round their sweet and peace
full graves.
Sadly missed by their
Sons and Daughters

Dear Editor:
On various occasions ! have
listened in on arguments as the
cause, producing the attractive
colors of the autumn leaves.
Some say it is definitely caus-
ed by the early frosts. Others be-
lieve that the abundance of color
is regulated by the degree of
moisture prevailing at that parti-
cular season of the year. Person
ally, l am inclined to believe
that moisture is the predominant
ing factor.
However, it seems to be a SUBJ
ject of sufficient merit to be
authoritatively answered in your
informative publication and I
would be pleased to havce an
authentic answer to this mother
nature problem.
Your truly,
F. E. Hare

D. {. Holds Lottery
To Pick Out Bidder

The District conducted a lot
terry in the Police Department
lineup room yesterday to get a
successful bidder for wastepaper,
scrap iron. tires, tubes and bat
teries that have been discarded
by the District government.
Paul Chapulsky, property Of
ficer for District Auditor r. L.
Pilkerton. was forced to resort to
this method to get a bidder be-
cause of the recent ruling of the
Office of Price Sterilization, which
held the District down to the same
price it was getting for junk this
time last year. Prices were low
then. because there was small de-
mand for junk. The highest bid
at that time was 26 cents per
100 pounds for wastepaper.
The city could get two or three
times that amount in the open
market. OPS was asked to permit
such sales but the agency told
VAlC oAOtlA ANV VliC AC6hAdtlOAI W0uAA
have to stand and the wastepaper
would have to be sold for 26 cents.
Twenty-Five bids were received
all at the OPS price. Consequently
the drawing was held.
The Silbey Iron Sz Metal Co.,
which now has the contract with
the District to buy scrap metal
won the drawing for the contract.
The company also was awarded
a contract to buy wornout batteries
for $282 each.
The Dupont Junk Co., who has
never had a contract with the
District government, according te
the auditors Office, was given the
contract to buy scrap iron at $2a
a ton. 1t also was given the con-
tract to buy tires and tubes at
$4.12h2 cents per 100 pounds.
The contracts usually are
awarded for one year, but this
time they will run only for SIX
months. because of OPS price
ceilings.

Swallow Falls Area
Among State Wonders

The results of an informal poll
among the biologists of the Chesa-
peake Biological Laboratory place
one of the States Natural wonders as
Swallow Falls state forest. The only
other one in Western Maryland is
Lovers Leap" just west of Cum
berland.
Most of those checked in the poll
have Travelled to every part of the
state in their scientific Investigations.
Only natural phenomena were con-
sidered and only those sufficiently
spectacular, yet accessible to Mary
landers, were chosen. The seven
wonders were not listed in order.
Concerning Swallow Falls, the con-
servationists observe that it is one of
the few genuine wild regions left in
Maryland with tall stands of hemlock,
white pine and rhododendron. I'm
usual wildlife such as long tailed
shrew and coal skink Clizard) not
found elsewhere in Maryland, may be
found at Swallow Falls.
Other wonders on the list are Cal
vert Cliffs, on the Chesapeake Bay,
in Calvert County, which contain
