James Samuel StemonS of Phila-
delphia, Pa, has been receiving
congratulatory messages on his re-
cent book, "The Korean Mess" p"
which seems to be a "Must" on
everybody'S list.
Speaking of books reminds US
that everyone should be interested
in the books written y J. A. Rog-
ers. He is a historian who has
done years of research in the field
of Negro history. For more than
81 years he has been studying and
travelling to gather little known
information about the Negro in all
parts of the world. His feature,
"Your History" appears weekly in
one of the nations most widely
circulated Negro newspapers. When
Mr.. Rogers first started his re-
search and wrote his first book, no
publisher would accept it because
of some of the information it con-
tanned. Mr.. Rogers then published
his first book himself and he has
been doing so ever since. Global
News Syndicate gave Mr.. Rogers
one of it's awards at it's second an
nual Conference last June, and no
one ever deserved it more. Any
one who would like further infor-
nation as to how to secure any of
Mr.. Rogers books may contact

Theresa, New York City.
Big things are on the calendar
for this Christmas season. The

at the Riverside Ballroom, Home
OF Name Bands" If you've heard
his popular recording of T-Bone
Walkers I'm Still In Love With

need any further introduction to
this young vocalist's unusual voice.
His "Blues After Hours" and
"Texas Hop" are still going strong,
with other of his own compositions
yet to be released.
Crayton, who is dated at River
side for Thursday, December 18,
also plays guitar and is backed
by a seven-piece unit of instru-
mentalists. The, boys show good
musical sense for riff, bounce and
bluesy renditions. With Crayton
fronting on guitar the unit plays
catchy rhythm pieces that will
have fans bouncing with joy.
Mr.. Crayton has often been re-
ferred to as the Sepia Valentino,
because of his good looks and debo-

may, a Decoration,
By VERA LUND PRAAST

MAPS make excellent wall dec
orations. In fact, a beautiful map is
just as decorative in its way as a
picture. And, like a picture, a map
can be taken down and another
put up.
Maps are fascinating. When the
family rest their weary muscles,
where better can they rest their
weary eyes and minds than on
map of the United States, for in
stance? Just looking at a map on
the. wall lifts people out of hum
drum everyday tasks and places.
Somehow map brings closer that
hoped-for trip to Helena, to the yell
lowstone or to Washington, D. G..
Any number of stimulating things
may be done with a map.
For instance, one may take an
imaginary trip, by sending to states
and cities on the route for pictures,
information and maps. All larger
towns and cities have chambers of
commerce which send out free in
formation.
Perhaps the family tries to esti-
mate the cost of a trip. Bus lines,
railroads and airways send out in
formation. For our family of five,
travelling by car, the cost averaged
a little over $40 day, including gas,
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-10-01

oil, food, tourist cabins and inciden-
tails such as scenic postcards.
An. endless number Of games and
questions can be made up with
map. For instance, what four vest
.ern states meet at one point? How
many states are there between Nom
tana and California?
In a few weeks, substitute a large
map of Montana which shows the
counties, for the United States map.
From a gas station or from the
county clerk obtain card showing
Montana county car license numbers.
On the back of this card paste 4
small map Of Montana showing
counties.
Now see how long it takes before
you have seen and listed car from
every county in the state. The chill
dren will join in this game with en-
thuSiasm.
Later, substitute maps of the COM
tinents. Maps of nearby large towns,
or parks, are good. Maybe someone
will draw map of the home farm.
Many maps can be had free. Mon
tana maps are obtainable free at gas
stations. The Montana State Cham
Der of Commerce issues a fascinating
illustrated pioneer map of Montana.
The National geographic Magazine
often contains large maps.

Rural Schools
Are Needed

WE ARE HEARING great deal
these days about rural schools
should we keep them, or should we
close them?
The first school I taught was a
rural school Yes, it had a large,
friendly heating stove and those two
little houses out in back, but fam
lies of that little Texas community
were happy and thoroughly proud of
their school
Education is not measured by how
much money a building costs or how
large it is, but, instead, by its tech
niques and practices of teaching ac-
cording to a system taken from a
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-10-01

recognized curriculum prescribed by
the state.
It is most desirable to have mod-
ern building with inside plumbing,
but that alone will not educate our
rural children.
Just as home is great deal more
than a 'house"- e"-beautiful decora-
tions cannot supply the love for
family nor can they bring content
ment and real happiness to those liv-
ing within its four walls. A home is
built with love, understanding and
tolerance, with a sense of respon-
sibilities and cooperation.
Meet Standards
Rural schools have not stood still
while the town schools have pro-
gressed. Their course of study must
measure up to certain prescribed
standards, and the rural teachers are
required to have comparable train
ing.

One of my daydreams has been
to build a model Of the solar sys-
tenn, with metal balls floating
through space on their way around
the central object representing the
sun.
That would be q hard thing to
do because metal balls (and any
other balls except gas-fllled ball
looms will fall toward the ground
when left In midair-unless they
are supported In some way.
It might be possible to use mag
netism to keep the balls in midair.
If that could be worked out, it
still would be hard to move the balls
to show revolution in the solar
system.
Perhaps I shall never make o
model solar system Of the kind
described, but scientists have done
some interesting work during the
past few years to solve q part Of
the problem. In a field described
as "ultrasonics." they have proved
that metal balls can be kept sus-
pended in the air.
The field OF ultrasonics has TO
do. with sound waves which are
beyond the power Of human beings
TO hear. In past times there was
much argument over tie question,

some insects (also certain furry AMI
mails, including dogs can hear
sounds which are of too high a
pitch to come into our ears as
sounds.
Many tests have been made with
ultrasonic waves. In one of these,
i've steel balls were made to hover
in the air by the action Of waves
of this kind. In our next story, I

That question has been answered

The bidding:

club Pass 1heart Pass
4hearts Pass ANT Pass
6hearts All pass
The answer is that you do not
count the void as an ace. You can
easily get into lot of trouble doing
that. However. there is a part of
the Blackwood slam convention
which takes care of this situation.
In today's deal Mr.. Masters bid
OF six hearts said, Partner, I have
exactly two aces. I also have a void
suit. feel that the odds greatly
favor our making small slam"
When to Do 1t.
Here was Mr.. Masters reasoning
II he bid only five hearts, there was
a possibility Mr.. Dale had no aces
and would pass. On the other hands
If Mr.. Dale was interested enough
in slam to bid four mo- trump, III
tricks were almost certainly avail
able at hearts.
This Jump directly to six follow
ing a four trump bid is made
only when the normal reply isl
In the agreed suit.
In other words, to show two aces,
Mr.. Masters normal reply was five
hearts. Bidding hearts at the six
range still meant that he had two
aces but said, in addition, that he
had a void suit.
Can Go to Seven.
Often your partner can figure
out where you void suit is when
you jump to six. This is especially
true when your opponents have
both been bidding some suit strong
y.
Where that is true the four-no-
trump bidder can go on to seven
even though he knows the enemy
has an ace.
Mr.. Masters jump to six by no
means would prevent Mr.. Dale from
bidding grand slam if he had
the values to do so. In today's hand.
he would have had to hold the other
two aces.
If the bidding had given him
clear indication as to where Mr..
Masters void was, then one ace
in the South hand might have been
sufficient.
So here is another facet of the
Blackwood convention. A Jump to
six in the agreed suit shows values
for a slam including a void suit
and the indicated number Of aces.

Purchasing Officer
Asks D. T.. 10 Effect
Price Relief on Milk

The District Purchasing Officer
yesterday asked the Commission
ers to seek some price concession
from the Maryland Virginia Milk
Producers Association on raw
milk sold to local dairies during
the city next contract period,
July 1-September 30.
Purchasing Office Roland M.
Brennan pointed out that the pur-
chase price of pasteurized milk
bought IN bulk for District agen-
cies is 80 per cent higher than the
price paid last year. The figures
are 74.9 cents per gallon, as op-
posed to 56.7 cents for the same
period of April to June. 1851.
Mr.. Brennan said that. while
the purchasing Office is allowed to
solicit bids from all qualified
firms throughout the country,
whose names appear on the Dis
trict's Official bidders mailing list,
milk and cream purchases are
limited to competitive bidding
among the local dairies in the
Washington milkshed alone. With
only one exception, these local
dairies get their milk from the
MARYLAND Virginia Milk Pro-
ducerS' Associations.
AS a result of this limited COM
petition the prices the District
has 10 pay for milk are "exces-
sively high" according to the pur-
chasing officer. This is true. he
added, despite milk price declines
this spring in the New York City.
Philadelphia and Boston areas.
He said he understands milk
prices in the Washington milk
shed have remained high, despite
the fact that there is q surplus
and that prices of many other
principal foods have declined.
