Does anyone know what kind
of powdered dye and liquid to
use and where could get
them?
Also, would like to ask an
other question. I read the
Shenandoah Valley Fruit Cake
recipe in the RICH some time
ago and want to try it. Flour

extra flour or take some
from the amount stated in the

HEATING?

mrs. J. w. G., Arlington)
We are buying a new home
in Northern Virginia and can
not find adequate information
on heating. We must decide
between oil hot-water and gas
hot-water systems. Which is
more economical? The house
has ceiling insulation and
gypsum board under the
weather boardings. Would
fiber insulation in the walls
make much difference in heat
ing costs? Thanks again.

DEAR MISS NISSEN: We are
three women whose husbands
work for an organization en-
ploying about 200 people, three
fourths of them are women.
About half the women and just
about all the men are married.
Our problem is this: The man
agement plans parties and picnics
for the employees. always held in
the evening and breaking up very
late. Dancing and drinking are
included, and no guests per-
mitted. We feel this is not
proper and that the policy of
other large companies should be
adopted-either hold the parties
In the afternoon, or allow en-
ployes to bring guests.

ANSWER: Office socials, like
90 many other things in life.
began as pleasantly purposeful
projects, only to wind up, for the
most part, losing every trace of
the original good intentions. AS
O means of furthering good will
among the members of an Or
ganlzation they were fine, but,
as has happened too often, many
are mere excuses for f1agrant
misconduct and as such should
be discontinued. Most firms do
open their parties to families. or
ut least to the spouSeS of their
employees. and, on this basis, the
gatherings return to their origi-
nal theme of good comradeship.
Promoting the social welfare of
employees is splendid project
when done under the right aus
pices. This is especially true if
q company recruits its staff from
q distance. Employees with no
other means of making social
contacts in a small town will
heartily welcome the opportunity
to have their families meet other
families in the same predica-
ment.
Office parties which result in
causing discord in a family are
in sad contrast to those that
spread good fellowship.
Employers should be on guard
against the dynamite lurking in
q party from which husbands
and wives are barred, and en-
ployes should have sense enough

Washington Methodist district.
The position involves preaching
in various churches, which he
has done nearly every Sunday
since his retirement, spearhead-
ing membership drives for the
society, and helping in church
extension work throughout the
city for the denomination.
When DR.. John Bailey Kelly
retired in February, 1850. as
minister of Georgetown Presby-
terian Church, he bought a small
house at Waterford, Va. That
was a prelude to many civic in
terests. Since then he has served
as president of the Waterford
Citizens Association and as presi-
dent of the Waterford Founda-
tions, of which he is now vice
president.
Still Active Here.
The 76-year-old pastor emeri-
tus is still a leading voice in
Washington City Presbytery af-
fairs. He is now on it's Commit
tee on Judicial Cases and on
the National Missions Commit
tee. Only recently he retired as
chairman of the Ministerial Re-
lationS Committee.
Gardening, guest preaching
every Sunday and reading OF
classical and modern literature
occupy his leisure hours. Time
does not hang heavy on DR.
Kelly's hands.
Eighty-year-old DR.. John E
Briggs retired ten years ago
after serving Fifth Baptist
Church for "a years. War needs
resulted in Temple Baptist
Church asking him to lead the
congregation. For six more
years he served as the church's
pastor. and retired again in
1949.
But retirement is a relative
term for DR.. Briggs. He is still
active in church extension work
preaching nearly every Sunday
at missions where a minister il
needed. He also goes once 6
month to Philadelphia, where he
is trustee of Eastern Baptist Sem
mary. And this September the

DIR. PinkertOn Is SO.
Probably the oldest retired
Washington minister is DR.. w.
H. Pinkerton. pastor emeritus of
National City Christian Church.
He is 88 years old, and served as
interim minister at National
City Church in 1888 and again
from November, 1941, to August,
1912. Although he still dis

But until recently the Disciples
clergyman, who retired in 1929,
spoke at churches from Hagers-
town. Md. to Roanoke, Va, to
Washington. He still goes to
meetings in National City

Retired Ministers Keep Up Activities

Retired ministers do not fade
away these days-they simply
direct their lights to other fields.
Take the case of the Rev. Ber-

Of the babies" among Washing
tons retired ministers. After
serving Al years in District
churches DR.. Braskamp re-
signed in February, 1852, as min
lister Of Gunton- Temple Pres
byterian Church.
II am retiring from the pas
torate, but not from the min
iStry," the genial former mod
orator of the Washington City
PreSbytery said at the time.
He has more than kept that
promise. In January, 1950s DR..
Braskamp was elected chaplain
of the House of Representatives.
where he had appeared many
times to open House sessions.
Upon retirement he was able to
embark upon a project long
contemplated to m axe tn e
House chaplaincy a full-time

parish" he explained. 1T has

DR.. Braskamp has taken on all
the duties of parish work-visit-
ing the sick, officiating at we'd
dingS or funerals, and being
available for personal counsel
ling. Recently a House door
keeper died, and the chaplain
conducted the service. He also
opens the House session each
day with a prayer.
In addition, the retired clergy
man helped organize the new
Silver Spring Presbyterian
Church. He has preached each
Sunday since october, 1852, to
the rapidly growing congrega-
tion.
Another minister making his
retirement years count is DR..
William S. Abernethy, pastor
emeritus of Calvary Baptist
Church. DIR. Abernethy retired
ten years ago at 10.
''It has been a wonderful ten
years." he said recently. Il have
been doing as much preaching
as before and enjoying it more
than ever. I had the privilege
of getting around to churches
where I could not do so before" |"

preaching missions, some lasting
