On lIlelT IIldICH on polio, they col
lected something we'll over $500
in the Rockville area. Mrs. Viii
liam Steinberg was Division
chairman of this area again and,
as we have said before, if ever
a gal can do job, Minnie Stein
berg can. AS evidence of her
ability, many of the mothers
volunteer year after year to work
with her. Of the amount col
lected, the Twinbrook and Rock
land area collected $697.56, and
the new RockcreSt section of
town., under the chairman of Mrs.
John Orner, collected $323.22.
To the chairmen, the mothers,
and to all those wonderful people
whose lights shone that night, we
say a job well done.
At cocktail time on Sunday
afternoon, the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Wendell F. Turner on Forest
Avenue was the scene of a
beautiful party honoring Miss
Jeanne Winifred Ruhling whose
wedding to Charles Allison Hoag-
land, Jr., will be solemnized Sat
urday in st. Adams Church. Miss
ARuhling is the daughter of Mr..
~and Mrs. John Alexander Ruhling
of Forest Avenue and her fiance
is the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Allison Hoagland of Cynwyd, Pa.
The bride-elect is graduate of
the University of Iowa and
attended Lawrence College in
Appleton, Wis. Mr.. Hoagland is
a graduate of Temple University
in Philadelphia. The wedding
will take place at 1890 and will
be followed by a reception at
Olney Inn for members of the
family and close friends.
Despite Saturdays threatened
snow, Mrs. Sam Young explained
for Miami Beach for several
weeks vacation. Mr.. Young will
join her later and they will re-
turn to Rockville by motor.
Word comes from sunny Cali
fornia from Mrs. Helen Asten,
wso for several years was a
teacher in the Rockville Element
airy School. Mr.. and Mrs. Asten
left early in June to make their
home in the West. Mrs. Asten
writes that at first she was home
sick but she loves her new home
and California. Of course she
misses her friends in the East,
but she is teaching again, so we
know she will make many
friends in her new home. The
Astens are living in Danville and
their son, Dale, is on active duty
with the Navy for two years.
Word also comes from another
of Rockville's favorite folks
Mrs. Dawn Slime. Mr.. and Mrs.
Slime and their young daughter
left Rockville last summer to re-
side in Frederick. Mrs. Slime, too,
says she misses all her Rockville
friends. She is teaching, and
wouldn't you just know it, her
class is winning, the PTA attend
ance banner! So many folks
have inquired about Mrs. Asten
and Mrs. Slime, for they both
carved quite a niche in the lives
of our youngsters and their
parents, as well. We are happy
to hear that they are both well,
and liking their new homes.
One of Rockville'S familiar
figures was missing from her
I patrol post on Route No. 240 last
week, and we are delighted to see
her back-Mrs. Louise Emswiler,
of course! Mrs. Emswiler is the
patrol lady who watches over our
youngsters every day. She was
confined with bronchial pneumo
mia, but is now fully recovered
and is back at her post again
She was missed by her many
little Charges, and they are SC
glad to see her back.
Here's good news for you, gals
Mrs. Helen Moulden who operates
1.-THE Little Folks Shop" on Mont
gomery Avenue, will be open for
another month. She originally
intended closing her shop by
February first, but the heavy
SHOWS and icy streets kept many
from taking advantage of her
wonderful closing out items. She
, will remain open until March
! and, while she does not have a
complete line of all items, she
does have some truly fine bar
gains. (Here's your chance to
stock up on those greeting cards
and gifts. You know you always
have to tear out and buy them
when a red-letter day comes
alongD
