April certainly has
been showing all of
moods and is exer-
cising her right to
be different. While it seems
like the month did not espe-
cially come in like either the
lamb or the lion, certainly, it
is that there have been days
that were gentle and others
that were roaring. Take, for
instance, Monday when it
showed one minute and the
sun shown the next. Aside
from the weather April is a
lovely month. Just now the
Judas and the dOywood trees
are soon to be at their lOvliest
and a. ride or drive through
town and the surrounding
country gives one a decided
lift as they see nature and
April in a 'blithesome" mood.

ScuII Takes Issue
With NesbiH Over
Silver Spring Growth

David Scull, president Of the
Silver Spring Board Of Trade.
took friendly issue last night
with the concern Of George F.
NeSbitt, president of the Mont
gomery County Council, that
Silver Spring may become "an-
other r street."
Such development is to be de-
sired not feared, Mr.. Scull told
the members Of the trade body
at q dinner meeting in the In
dian Spring Country Club.
What the tax-burdened home
owner in Montgomery County
needs is somebody to share with
him the cost Of standardization
of this previously rural coun-
ty," Mr. Scull declared. "BuSi-
ness property throws of a sur
plus Of tax dollars that go long
way toward balancing our coun-
ty budget each year."
Fears Decentralization.
At Tuesdays council session,
during discussion Of the pro-
posed purchase Of the Silver
Spring Armory lot for parking
purposes, Mr.. Nesbitt said the
purchase might be sowing the
seeds of an overcentraliZed busi-
ness district in Silver Spring"
and that "Silver Spring might
become another F street."
Referring to this overcentral-
1zation, Mr.. Scull said. This
county has long accepted the
sound zoning principle that COM
mercial properties should be con-
fined to clearly defined business
districts. But to make this plan
work, those business districts
created by law after public hear
ing must be properly provided
with the municipal essentials Of
adequate streets and proper park
Ing facilities"
Mr.. Scull expressed satisfac-
ton that plans are going ahead
for the purchase of the Armory
lot.

County's new manager, said he

Rev. James c. Brown, DID. PASTOR
c Last Sunday mornings SER
vice was an inspiring one. The
pastor delivered for the Com
munion meditational message,
"The TRANSPORTATION" based on
the series of sermons which the
pastor will preach during the
Lenten season. Three of the
Gospel writers have recorded
this beautiful story of the Trans
figuration of the Lord found in
ST. Matthew II, selected because
it was the pastors favorite Scrip
ture. We could imagine our
selves taken back to the time
and the place of the Christ's
TRANSPORTATION. We could pic
ture the three disciples watching
him in amazement. This mes
sage was told in a plain and
simple manner that even a child
could understand. Suitable mu-
sic was rendered by both choirs.
Coming to unite with the church
were Mrs. ]. Pinckey, the Perry
Sisters, and Miss Gwendolyn
Davis, who were extended the
right hand of fellowship. 1t was
gratifying to see such a large
audience present. In the after
noon the Sr. Choir sponsored
their festival of music. Thanks
to Concord Baptist and st. Paul

to make the afternoon success
full. Tuesday at $3.50 PM. the
