DALLAS, TEX.
NoNUNDRUM: When is a gourmet
va dietitian? Once in a blue moon,
is the answer to that. And it was a
blue moon shining brightly over
Dallas the evening I met Miss Nell
Morris of the dual personality. Nell
is a top-rate dietitian who can count
the calories or cage a vitamin. She
can figure minerals and amino acids
in dull percentages. At business she
is a woman sternly practical, but at
home Nell let's herself 60 and cooks
in superlatives.
Nell's title for Is years was Chief
Dietitian and Associate Professor at
the Texas State College for Women.
During this period $50 dietitians
were trained under her supervision
to head kitchens in hospitals, indus
trial plants, restaurants and tea
rooms. Six years ago Professor Nor
ris tired of the school room and
decided to take her chance in the
business world. The Frito Company,
the corn-chip makers, offered her a

GEORGETOWN

In order to properly plan for the
entrance of first grade pupils in
the Georgetown School this fall,
the 1855 registration is being con-
Quoted at the Sussex County Health
Unit, on East Market Street, in
G Georgetown. The registration will
be conducted on March p. between
the hours of 1O:15-11:45 a. m. and
l:15-3:15 p. m. The State Board of
Health is offering at the same time,
the physical examinations and i'm
munizatiOns for the pupils. The
child to be registered must have
reached his or her sixth birthday
on or before January l, 1855 and a
birth certificate must be presented
at the time of registration.
When the registrations and ex-
aminatiOns have been completed at
the Health Unit, parents are in
vited to take the children to the
school for a visit i'm one of the
first grades, in order that both child
and parent may see at first hand
just what a typical school day pro-
gram consists of, and to allow the
child to become acquainted with
the school and see the children al
work and play.
This plan of giving the examina-
tiOns and having registrations al
the Health Unit, followed by q
visit to the school has been found
to be beneficial in aiding the young
pupils to make a better adjust
ment when school opens in Septem-
| ber.

Traffic Plon 'Funtustie' .

The proposal to send 10000 more cars
over Chain Bridge, Chain Bridge road
and Glebe road during morning and
evening rush hours sounds like an eerie
nightmare conceived in pathologically
unsound mind.
The daydream of making Chain
Bridge road four-lane highway in
trigues me like a who-dun-it. What
is the intention-an elevated road
clutching the shelf of rock along the
Potomac gorge. supported by flying
buttresses? Or is it the intent to cover
Pimmit Run channel? And what of
D. C. approaches? And finally CHA like
sitting duck from the air-plunked
in an open space, surrounded by acres
of concrete parking area to shine in
the sun and announce the presence Of
one more big United States Govern
ment installation
The thing Is fantastic! It sounds
like all the noise being made currently
by those "progressives" who are try
ing so hard to urbanize reasonably
rural county-for their own financial
benefit of course!

Battle of the Seasons

Winters firm grip is hard to dislodge.
Spring struggles against the ice and chill,
coaxing the early flowers to bloom and the
sap higher in the trees. She brings warm
day and a promise of more. Then winter
brusquely pushes aside her handiwork seek
ing to maintain his bitter reign against
welcome usurper who will win, but not with
out battle.
This battle of the seasons is evident
everywhere. In the rivers the ice begins
to move, stirred by spring to clear the way
for warmer time. Winter sends another
blast to choke the river and the ice slows.
The robin, lured north by his inexplicable
migratory instinct, picks his domestic on a
day Of warmth The next day he cocks his
ear to an unresponsive earth, again in win
ters grip. The snow recedes in the noun
tains, giving meaning to the spring freshet,
but 1t is a reluctant occasional.

The children's house-pent energy becomes

But it is in the field and stream and
woods that the struggle is most evident.
Here it is silent battle, giant against giant.
