EAR FRIENDS

paper that gave us
peace for a while, finds us to-
day thankful that there is no
increase in the death lists in
Korea. and always hopeful that
some means may be devised for
the guarding of this temporary
thing and the hope of making it
a lasting one. Through the
years proper celebration has
been carried on for the sacri-
fees of our brave sons, but we
are ever hopeful that such
sacrifices may come to an end
and people yet will find some
peaceful way to adjust their
differences and begin to prac-
tice the fine art of loving their
neighbOrs. We are continually
amazed at the number of trOu-
BILE spots in the world, which
TV brings right in our homes,
and wish that the early Chris
tian teachings might be more
basic in the thinking of every
one. These first principles are
much more imDOrtant than we
realize and could guide us to a
better understanding of others.
In a short time now the par
ades of the present day will
begin. Those who watch TV
may see David Burton as he
takes part in the observance of
the day in the national capitol.
He is a member of the drill
team of the Air ROTC at
Georgetown University, that
crack precision unit that takes
part in all of the parades.
Hope you see him as hope to,
too.
Early today before the guests
were expected I slipped out to
Haven Lake Acres, there to see
the preparations that Virginia
Banning and Winifred Lett
hiser had made for theapleasure
OF their invited friends. After
such a dreary day yesterday
the sun that shone so beauti-
fully made everything inside
and out sparkle with its brilli-
ance. The hostesses graciously
received me and there were
beautiful fall flowers artistical-
ly arranged, a beautiful table
decoration of fruit on the din
ing table around which guests
are at this minute gathering,
and those who are assisting, l
know, are making everyone
welcome and at home. The
Banning home is so beautiful
ly situated right on Silver
= Lake and the guests will en-
b Joy the view from it almost as
s. much as they will the delicious
things that have been prepared
for consumption. Mrs. David
Sills and Mrs. Leslie March
are pouring while Myrtle Nit
ten, Mary MulhOlland, Edith
Masten, Sara Short, Lillian
BuTris and Ida Bell Isaacs as
sist. These informal cOffees,
in the late morning, are such
delightful entertainments, and
afford those who attend a
chance for unhurried visiting.

ton John o. Snyder, who is
