the University of Maryland COW
cred soil testing and the proper
fertilizers to use. Guy w. Glen

gave a talk on lawn mowers and
their care.
The Meredith p. Davidsons, on
whose grounds the meeting took
place, served hot coffee, and
breakfast cake.
Mrs. Judkins, Identification
Committee chairman, reports that
because of the great interest
Broadwood has shown in this
first meeting, Mr.. Foster is
scheduling another speaker for

will be pest control and we shall
give you the pertinent facts as
soon as they are available.

This is an open letter of appre-
citation to the people of the sur
rounding communities of Rock.
vile and Gaithersburg.
A few months ago this unit
moved into and occupied Nike
guided missile site a short dis
tance from these two cities. Like
other units of this type, problems
developed in obtaining housing
for the families of our married
personnel and of providing recre.
sational facilities for our bachelor
personnel. Immediately the COM
munities of Rockville and Gath
sersburg lent helping hand.
Our housing problem was solv-
ed when, through the cooperation
of everyone, more than adequate
housing was provided at a NOM
inal cost.
In action by the mayor and city
council of Rockville the unit was
Officially adopted by the city. The
facilities of the city library were
made available to us; the Villa
fTheater in Rockville admitted
our personnel at reduced rate:

made available one evening a

The Judkins' home is fine ex-
ample of Helen's flair for decor

in a lovely, cosy setting. Helen
finds time in her busy schedule

that duty.

Editor:
have been intending to write
earlier regarding the fine descrip-
tive article about my husband
and his Chinese friends. 1t was
fine tribute for a very unselfish
man who has given most of the
years of his life helping others.
OF course these Chinese people
are appreciative, but few others
know of his efforts on their be-
half.
We both want to congratulate
you on a fine paper and know 1t
will continue to grow in news
worthy articles under your direc-
ton.
Some time hope to have the
pleasure of meeting members of
the Sentinel staff.
Margaret p. Heine
Mrs. II. S. Heine)
P.S. Many have mentioned the
article to us, so we feel II was
widely read.

ArgOn Lamp
To Be Shown

When the lighting display is
shown at the Sherwood Com.
munity Library in Sandy
Spring Wednesday, it will con-
tain an Argon lamp. This lamp
was invented by a kinsman of
the Elgar family, old settlers in
the Sandy Spring area.
Richard Elgar, a London
merchant, invented the lamp
in the 18th century and, with
his French partner, introduced
it in London and Paris. The
current king of England liked
the new lamp so well that he
granted the inventor a coat of
arms and the right to use the
motto, peace and Content
ment," says Mrs. Elgar Stab
Ter of Spencerville, who has
studied the history of the area.
