joicing over the arrival of little

Congratulations!
My husband and 1 motored to
Hagerstown Sunday afternoon
to attend a pre-Chrismas dinner
held at "The Rose Bowl" given
by Mr.. and Mrs. Carl R. Beer
honoring your writer and hus-
band and DR.. Howard Weeks.
Twas a sumptuous meal cen
tered around roast chicken. The
drive up through the beautiful
mountains was an especially sat
isfying one as the panoramic
beauties were unshrouded by
haze or cloud. The graceful
pines gently swaying with the
breeze, and we saw many beau
tifully lighted trees and windows
honoring the birth of our Saw
Jour, the interspersing of the low
growing mountain laurel among
the rocks and barren trees were
as artistic as only Nature can
arrange.
If you haven't seen the beau
tiful and very large municipal
park in Hagerstown now is the
time to see it as it is most pic
turesque with it's many lovely
graceful white swan and literal
ly hundreds of colored dusks
which gracefully swim on the
waters of its placid lake. 1t has
a life-size Santa beneath abril-
liantly lighted tree off shore and
another very large one on a float
on the lake with its many colored
bulbs reflected in the waters.
Sincerest sympathy goes to

Braking, Steering Cited as
Factors in Skid Prevention

they do the car should be
steered in that direction. Again,
if the rear wheels slip to the left
as they may do if the brakes
are not properly equalized E.
the steering wheel should be
turned in that direction.
Many drivers become panicky
when their cars start to skid and
jam on the brakes in a desper-
ate effort to stop the machine,
forgetting that they must first
stop the skid. The impulse to APP
ply the brakes harder when a
car slides off on a tangent must
be resisted, because a smashup
virtually is inevitable unless the
skid is gotten under control.
"And, finally, icy roads are not
the only skidding hazards. Wet

makers Christmas Party last
Thursday evening at the Rudd's
was a huge success, with about
80 members and friends attend
ing. Among the guests were two
of the holiday visitors, Mrs.
Charles Gaines and Mrs. A. B.
Davidson.
The decorations were ably han
died by Mrs. Georgia Flannery
and Mrs. Howard Leighton. Red
bulbs were used for lighting, and
tinsel was placed around them to
give a very merry effect. Bells
and Christmas balls were strung
about the room in an attractive
arrangement, while the finishing
touch was a miniature Christmas
tree.
Small gifts were exchanged by
all, and Mrs. Walter P. Luthy
and Mrs. Fred Field did a fine
job entertainment-wise, one of
the most enjoyable parts of
which was the singing of carols,
led by Mrs. Luthy.
Such jolly tradition has been
set for BroadWood Manor Home
makers! There is nothing like
the Christmas spirit to bring out
the neighborly spirit in all of US.
Tradition" reminds your report
er of the Christmas caroling
done in previous years here in
Broadwood. Again this year Mrs.

a group of carolers to sing in the
Broadwood Manor area. If you
are interested, please call her at

Let us have a big turnout. Moth
ing is more Christmas-like than
the voices of carolers filling the
air on Christmas Eve. Let us not
be guilty of letting this grand
tradition die here in BroadWood.

Motorists can stop skidding on
slippery roads and streets by OBJ
serving two well established
rules, advises Edward P. Curran,
Safety Director of Keystone Au-
tomobile Club.
First rule: Release the brakes
on the car Immediately.
Second: Steer in the direction
of the skid.
TOO quick, or heavy-footed
braking causes most skidding,"
Mr.. Curran continued. $50, by re-
moving the pressure on the
brakes the cause is eliminated.
But the effect may continue and
the best thing to do is to steer
in the direction of the skid.
Steering into the skid means
simply that if the rear wheels

One may well wonder how Mr. and
Mrs. Eskimo and the Children made
the initial journey from Boring Strait
to Greenland. Not to mention the SUBJ
sequent visitings of their descendants
and kinfolks back and forth from
Thule and Utkievik. The answer is,
primarily, their resourcefulnesS and
fortitude. And, the fact that their
economy was based on the Seal.
The many present day devotees of
Archery, and the Thousands of Collec-
tors of Arrow Heads testify to the i'm
portance of the invention of the Arch
ers Bow.
1t remained for the Eskimo to per-
feet the detachable Toggle Type Har-
pooh Point. There must have been
much of trial and error before the
curve and angle of the Spur at the
proXimal end of the Point was correct
ly shaped to be self turning within the
body of the Quarry.
And, Notwithstanding the lightness
of the hunting gear, so impede the
movement of the powerful marine
mammal as to make its capture near
certainty.
Yes; We know that a well flaked
ebert or Obsdian Arrow Point is

But, for symmetry of outline and

commends an Ivory Toggle Type Har-

patent No. 2.695 1853, entitled
Apparatus For Electroplating
Wire.
In the process of electroplat-
ing or coating wire with a pro-
tective layer of zinc or other
suitable metal, it is common
practice to draw a number of
wires continuously through an
elongated tank containing the
"electrolyte" or liquid compost
ton of the metal to be de-
posted. Electric current is in
troduced into the tank through
so called anodeS, which pref
erably are inSoluble in t h
electrolyte, and leaves through
the wires which constitute the
"cathodeS ''of the apparatus.
According to MeSSrs. Roy and
De Witt, this use of insoluble
anodes introduces the serious
problem of maintaining an eff
fective circulation or agitation
of the electrolyte in the tank.
This circultion is essential for
several reasons. For example,
it prevents the electrolyte ad-
jacent the wires from becom-
ing metal poor" and thus
causing poor deposits; and it
