To Take School
Census in County
During November

Roundup time in County nurs-
cries is here again and census TAX
ers will soon be riding the mop
pet range to get a head count,
DR.. Forbes H. Norris, County
school superintendent announced
this week.
To make plans for future
school operations, the state law
requires an annual count of
every child from birth to 10 years
of age in each County. This
years census will be taken by
elementary school areas, with
parents assisting the schools in
a house-to-house canvas during
the first two weeks of November.
Every home will be visited by
the census takers in an effort to
determine the total number of
pre-school children, children with
special needs, children of school
age who are out of school, and
the numbers of children attend.
ing private or parochial schools.
DR.. Norris requests the coop
Grafton of all county residents so
as to make the census as accur'
ate as possible.

Can fSIeep?
Be Dumb or
Get Bored

The dog, the cat, the baby in
the crib-how do they spend most
of their time? Sleeping. It's so
easy for them to drop off any
where, anytime. Then why can't
you sleep whenever you wish?
It's probably because you're SO
intelligent, doctors say.
1t was quite an achievement
when man got smart enough to
stay awake two thirds of the
time. New born infants, like the
lower animals, wake only when
stimulated by hunger, pain, fear,
or some other primitive urge.
When their needs are satisfied,
they go back to sleep. AS the
brain develops, the baby becomes
more and more aware of what
goes on around him. There are
many more sensations to keep
him awake. And when he be.
comes an adult with a fully de.
veloped brain, life can be so very
stimulating that sometimes he
just can't sleep.
The type of insomnia that af
flicts almost everyone once in
a while results from over.stimu
lation. You get into political dis
cussion, and when you go to bed
you lie awake thinking up per.
feet arguments. Or you have an
important job to do tomorrow,
and you worry about how you'll
do it. Or you are in a strange
bed. Or you drank too much
strong coffee.
If you have trouble getting to
sleep, try boring yourself. An
occasional evening with dull COM
pany or a dull book will be help
full. Take a cup of warm milk
or similar innocuous beverage be-
fore retiring. Establish a bed
time routine of insignificant
chores to slow down the activity
of your brain. Music may help,
if it is pleasant but uninteresting.
Be sure not to confuse annoyance
with boredom. People or things
that annoy you are stimulating
rather than soporific.
The main thing is to get into
the habit of sleeping. There's no
need to worry about losing sleep
occasionally, but chronic insom.
mia is very serious and may re-
quire a doctors help.

Mrs. George Darby

Halloween can be lots of fun
and it should be especially so for
the children of Gaithersburg and
vicinity, for this year as in the
past few years, the Lions Club
will sponsor their annual Hal
lowe'en party.
With such an attraction plan
ned for the children's entertain
ment, it seems that the old man.
ace on trick or treat" could well
be forgotten. Halloween should
be celebrated one night, but it
seems that in the past few years,
several nights are spent celebrat-
ing. 1t seems to this correspond
ent that the treats that the Lions
Club give to the children, should
be the end of treats.
Hats off to the Lions Club for
their planned party for the chill
dren. We hope that all of the
children will take such an active
part in the party, that once the
party is over that it will be due
time to go home with no follow
up on Sunday, the calendar date
of Halloween. And it might be
added that the celebrating should
not start on Friday evening.
Many prizes for good costumes
are given each year, and it is
not too late to plan a super-duper
costume for Saturday. Put on
your thinking caps and come
forth with a prize-winning cos
tune. The time of the party is
1880 and the place in front of
the First National Bank on Sum-
NIT Ave.
And for the grown-ups, not that
they can't participate in the
party, too, there is a dance, spon-
sored by the Gaithersburg- Wash
ington Grove Fire Department,
following the party. The dance
will be held at the Agricultural
Center. Coming in costume is not
obligatory, but last year over so

Tense Director.
Mr.. Ewing said today that
Hurricane Hazel is "child's play
compared to what would happen
if an enemy attacked u.s."

by the recent lack of electricity
indicate what we would be up
against" he said.
The Civil Defense alert will
be held sometime on November
8. 8 or 10 and is part of a seven
State exercise, he said.
Governor McKeldin, Mr.. Ewing
and Col. Arthur L. Shreve, State
Civil Defense Deputy Director,
are the only persons in Mary

and time the test is to be held.
The public will be expected to
observe the usual Civil Defense

Civil Defense officials have
given no hint as to when the
surprise drill will be held dur
ing the three-day period.
