But only those who lost can tell
The pain of parting without farewell.

One Solitary Life

Here is a man who was born in an OBJ
scure village, the child of a peasant woman.
He grew up in another Obscure village. He
worked in carpenter shop until he was thirty,
and then for three years he was an itinerant
preacher. He never wrote book. He never
held an office.
He never owned q home. He never set
foot inside big city. He never travelled more
than two hundred miles from the place where
he was born. He had no credentials but him
self.
He had nothing to do with this world
except the naked power of his divine man.
hood. While still young man, the tide of
popular opinion turned against him. His friends
: ran away. One of them denied him. He was
turned over to his enemies. He went through
the mockery of trial. He was nailed upon a
cross between two thieves
His executoners gambled for the only
piece of property he had on earth while he
was dying-and that was his coat. When he
was dead he was taken down and laid in
borrowed grave through the pity of friend.
Nineteen wide centuries have come and
gone and today he is the centerpiece Of the
human race and the leader of progress. am
far within the mark when / say that all the
armies that ever marched, and all the navies
that ever were built, and all the parlaments
that ever sat, and all the kings that ever
reigned put together have not affected the life
of man upon this earth as powerfully as that
one solitary life Author Unknown

Approves
Watershed Study

The Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission yesterday
adopted a resolution approving
the Rock Greek watershed pro-
lection and flood prevention
study by Fedreal authorities as
by Montgomery County
soil conservation officials.
The county soil conservation
district, after compiling data on
a destructive July food, pro-
posed that a Federal survey be
made ip the Rock Creek area
to determine the feasibility of a
program to curb future floods
and protect the 10000 acres in
the watershed. e
j. Fred Hazen, county soil con-
servationiSt, said the request for
a survey has been cleared by
Maryland soil conservation off,
Gals and transmitted to the
Federal agency, where it is now
under consideration.
The nearby Maryland sanitary
agency stipulated that its in
dorsement of the survey was not
to be construed as a commit
ment to any particular program.
Last month, the Maryland-Na-
tional Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission approved to the
watershed study.
