Light Plant Referendum,

Clair Fett representing the Business Mems Association

of the municipal light and plant compared with the
advantages of purchased power distributed by the village

There early indication when the recommendation
of the Board of Public Affairs go to purchased
power that large segment of the community mmed
lately opposed and thought that outright sale would be
the better of action Mr. Fes preliminary report
which he admitted far from complete showed that there
will be two of looking at the matter and that the Board
of Public Affairs, which has certainly given the matter
great deal of study may well have the better judgment in
the matter
Whatever the final findings of the Businessmens Com
mittee the Village Council, there will be for differ
ences of opinion
With the issue certain to be highly controversial there
is growing feeling that when all the facts n the
tion should be decided by referendum of public opinion
This that the outcoing decision will be
better than the Board of Public Affairs than Councils but
great many citizens believe they should have right to have
their "say."
Thus it is with democracy the majority may bungle
the decision but at least they won't be able to blame
ese and right appears that Council might be
wise to let an election settle the question.

WORDS TO SONG.
(MrS. J. L. S., Falls Church,
Since I enjoyed reading Mrs.
D. MS. Silver Spring, clever
suggestions on entertaining a
toddler, I am sending along
the words to one of the songs
which she requested. They
are as follows:
Said the little boy to the little girl
In ectasy of bliss,
Said the little boy to the little girl
Pray give me just one kiss"
The girl drew back In great alarm,
you're a stranger, SIR" said she,
But I will give you just one kiss
When apples grow on lilac tree"
The boy felt very sad at heart
For she was the only one. r
The girl felt quite remorSeful
At the terrible wrong she had done.
So bright and early the very next morn
He was quite surprised to see
His little sweetheart standing In the
Tying apples on lilac tree.

area and enjoy reading RICH.

Consideration of the needs OF
children at different ages is a
safety measure. A great major
lty of accidents to youngsters
can be prevented, although, nat
urally. parents cannot prevent all
accidents. The complete protec-
ton given a baby would deprive
a child of necessary experiences
and make him timid and de-
pendent.
Here are some important re-
minders about children about 2
years old. These suggestions
plus others from your own ex-
perience, will help make up your
own special child safety formula.

who sometimes seem so mature
that parents may forget they

They can rotate their fore

locked so that youngsters can't
dash out suddenly.

A Menu for Beach Supper

After a swimming party-how
about real Beach Frolic? Sup
per cooked at the waters edge is
the perfect ending to a perfect
day-and if someone brings
along a ukelele-so much the
better.
If you have a charcoal port
able grill it is ideal for this oc-
casion. AS for a menu, we sug-
gest special hamburgers, hot
buns. potato salad, deviled eggs,
pickles, fruit and cookies.
Brown the hamburgers in the
skillet at home, then chill them
we'll and wrap them in alumni
mum foil. Store them in the ice
box until ready to leave for the
beach. When you are ready to
eat pop the wrapped burgers
right on the grill-they'll be
done in 10 to Is minutes. In
this way they can be cooked to
individual taSte-rare, medium,
or we'll done.
Put the potato salad in a plas-
tic bowl and arrange the deviled
eggs as a garnish. Remember.
salad dressings spoil easily in
hot weather, so, if you are
going to have to let the food
stand outside the ice box any
length of time, it would be wiser
to take the dressing. we'll chilled.

the salad just before serving. Or
pack the whole bowl of salad in

cubes and pour over them y cup
of strained honey and q cup of

mrs. r. T. H.. Alexandria,

'~'@ - ~Se . - - S@SSsA$~fsS1f St@I
To Mrs. w. B. c., Washing
ton, who requested informa-.
ton on Munich, Germany. We
were stationed there from
1950-51 and loved it. About
electrical appliances. I'd take
my vacuum, washing machine,
iron and any other appliances
you feel essential. There are
both ITO and 220 current, de-
pending upon what part of the
city you are. You can obtain
a transformer at a reasonable
cost, however, that will make
it possible to use your equip
ment wherever you may be.
You might be able to buy
used appliances there from a
family that is leaving, but to
be on the safe side and to save
time, I would take those most
necessary with me.
We took along table linens,
a few blankets (you may OBJ
tain them through quarter
master), cooking utensils and
cutlery. We received silver
ware and china from GMC
and took only enough to carry
us over the first weeks. Ac-
tually you can obtain a great
many things from the quarter
master, but we were glad that
we took the aforementioned
articles as availability of sup
plies varies from time to time
depending on how many fami-
lies are requesting household
equipment. If you have par
ticular things that you want
to make you feel at home, do
take them.
1t is possible to buy chill
dren's and women's clothes in
German stores. The only diff
Guilty I had was in finding
women's shoes-if you have a
narrow foot, it's almost impos-
sible to find the right size.
Munich has a large PIX which
carries a good selection of
shoes for women and children,
as we'll as clothing. You can
also order through mail-order
catalogues there.
I do hope this information
has helped you. We really do
envy you as Munich is de-
lightful city with lovely re-
sorts only a few hours drive
away. The weather is mod
crate, winters rather cold and
summers not as warm and
humid as those here in WASH
ington. Take advantage of as
many opportunities as you can,
and I am sure you'll enjoy
your stay.
