Citizens Associations first meet
ing of the season Monday evening
had many interesting items on the
agenda The Tree Committee is
being reactivitated to acquire
trees for those who desire them
in areas not previously covered,
A newsletter, to be published
every month, is in the planning
stage, and a new up-to-date direc-
tory will be published at no cost
to members of the association.
Other projects discussed were
that the yearly dues of 81 per
family may be paid next meeting
or mailed to Bill Stalters, at 1911

The directory alone is worth
more than 81 to this reporter.

Citizens Seek
Fund to Hold
Top Teachers

An approach to the problem of
recruiting and retaining superior
teachers in the county schools
has been offered by number of
county residents through a new
organization, the Montgomery
County Scholarship Fund, estab-
lished as non-profit corporation
last June.
The fund is intended to provide
for a years graduate study to
county residents who are current
ly seniors in an accredited col
lege and who intend to enter
public teaching in the county. It
will draw contributions from
educational, civic and service or
CARNATIONS and from private
individuals.
The Montgomery County Edu-
cation Association and the Coun'
ty Council of PTAs have already
endorsed the fund and the Mont
gomery County School Board
voted endorsement at its Tues
day board meeting.
At the first meeting of the
board of the fund on September
II, David Scull, past president of
the Silver Spring Board of Trade,
was elected president, with Car
yer Highs principal, DR.. Parlett
Moore, as vice president. James
@. Reber is secretary and David
Weed will serve both as treasurer
and fund raising chairman

Pool Opening Delay

I interesting and entertaining even
ing was spent planning the years

drive, and considering the pro-

derman'S lS-month.old twins ate

The next meeting which pro-
misses to be especially interesting

TWinbrook had its seventh and
best picnic last Sunday with over
300 families and about 50 indi-
viduals turning out. All told, it
was the most satisfying, diet
destroying stomp and perloo
we've been to in a long time. Con-
gratulationS and thanks go to
Paul James, chairman of the TEA
Recreation Committee, and Mary
McQueeny and Bob Rapp, CO.
chairman for the picnic.
In addition to the planning,
buying. and advertising of the
affair these people did most of
the manual labor involved. They
had a good deal Of help from
Frank O'Connor, Ed Gardiner, and
Rudy Mechelke on setting up.
We must say it was very well
set up. The serving was easy
on the servers as we'll as on the
guests who were able to pick up
their food in record time. Bob
and Sue Drake worked on the
setting up and also handled the
tickets at the gate.
Mary Curling was in charge of
entertainment, and we were all
delighted that young Jackie is
sufficiently recovered from his
battle with polio to accompany
the cowboy entertainer, Roy
Haney, to the affair. An unfor-
tunate failure in the public adj
dress system limited Rays
audience somewhat, but the little
rascals" who crowded around him
came away delighted.
Malcolm Morse was able to re-
pair the PA system by providing
his own microphone in time for
the award of the 43 door prizes.
Pete Sante, Mary Collins, and
Ginny Eckhardt kept the serving
tables at full speed most of the
afternoon with other helpers
spelling them off and on. The
milk for the children was pro,
vided by Thompson, Hadley. Mar
tins, Harvey, Chestnut Farms
and Embassy diaries and by our
smiling Thompsons milkmen,

With the reopening of school
and the return of cool weather,
we are inclined to return to
philosophy and other indoor
sports, and so we will say of the
scheduled opening of the swim
ming pool last Saturday only that
"Of all sad words of tongue and
pen, the saddest are these, 1T
might have been"
In fact, it very nearly was.
The hard core of volunteers
worked every night, even in the
dark, and the pool was ready to
be filled a week ago yesterday.

The acid test local Water) re-
vealed a defect in one of the light
supports which had to be correct
ed in order to have the pool open
in perfect" condition.
The decision to postpone the
opening while this repair was
made also makes it possible to do
much better job of fencing and
grading than was planned for
last weeks hurry up" opening.
The engineers and their loyal
volunteers insist on setting a kill
ing pace for themselves on the
theory that the other members
expect them to finish the pool
Immediately. AS a matter of
fact most of the inactive, so far,
members are simply aghast at
the amount of work that has been
done so far, and they will be quite
content to go swimming next
spring in the company of their
xnore devoted fellow members.
" A few of the men who seem to
be quite literally working them
selves to death owe it to the com
munity to consider the effect of
the mass guilt complex, they may
cause with their untimely demise.
So ease off, boys. Most of us
realize that the pool project is
roughly equivalent to the con-
struction of 20 of our houses, and
if it opens this Saturday, only
one month later than the original
optimum completion date, you'll
have set a new record for this
area. Besides our bathing suit

cane.
School opened Monday, with an
enrolment of 1,067, including the
second graders at Glenview and
excluding the children who were
registered but did not appear for
opening day. 1t is anticipated
that the enrolment will top LOO
by Monday. Thirty teachers were
on duty the first day, which went
surprisingly well, considering the
size of the school, the number of
Iew children and the necessity of
transporting about 100 seven
year-olds to Glenview by bus.
The cafeteria at TWinbrook
was in operation with its staff,
the teachers, and the children all
displaying remarkable savoir
faire for a first-day undertaking
The second graders at GlenvieW
were delighted with the mansion
and the grassy play areas, to say
nothing of the adventurous bus
ride.

had not been for the pay check

Another noteworthy feature of
King Josiah's success in money
raising was that he got the money
from the people who came to Wor-
ship at the Temple The first at
tempt was to approach the citi-
zens at large; this failed. The
second was to give the worship
pers a chance to give: and they
gave, literally till the money-chest
ran over. The church can make a
strong appeal to those who are
dedicated to the Kingdom of Love.

YOU give through the church in
Christ's name and for purposes
which he surely approves. Giving
is good for people because money
is life-concentrated portable life
energy. The money you have
earned represents work you have
done. thoughts you have had en-
ergy you have spent Now the
money is in your hand or in the
bank. The thought the work, the
energy is gone. the time is gone;
but the money has come back, it
is your life Now church that
does not challenge us TO put our
lives into it will in the long run
interest no one Where treasure
goes. the heart follows, as Jesus
pointed out Giving is good for
people because not giving makes
them sluggish and selfish.
Where Does the Money Go?
Nobody particularly likes to
give in the dark It doesn't do
lot of good TO shout at people, Be
generous!-For what is a fair
question. So the wise church will
see to it that all its people know
where the money goes after it
disappears up front somewhere on
Sunday mornings our Scripture
reading tells Of a successful finan-
cial campaign carried on by King
Josiah. There were points in his
scheme that were then and are
now sound principles for giving
through the church. One is that
the people could see exactly why
their money was needed There
had been an unsuccessful attempt
to collect money for the same
purpose. namely repairing the
Temple: but the collectors had
been told to go out and get the
money in other cities That meth
cd did not work; one reason was
that the collectors We're in no
rush. and the other was that peo-
pie living at a distance had no
idea of the need for repairs on
the Temple When they came up
to Jerusalem, they could see very
well that the shrine was about to
fall down.
