THE COUNCILS VIEWS

1t is quite difficult managing
"a three-generation household in
these days when homes and
apartments are too small to in
.clude any but the immediate
family. 1t is very much worth
while, however, especially for the
children.
This family needs some frank
discussion. Vera. as a daugh-
ter-in-law, seems a little too
anxious for the feelings of her
husbands parents, possibly she
has never quite felt at home
with them. They, in turn, seem
to feel too insure of themselves.
The parents and the grand
parents should talk this over
and come to an understanding
on how to deal with the chill
Idren. The grandparents should
not depend on the daughter-in-
law to come to their defense
against the children, and the
Idauehter-in-law should inject
herself at the first word from
the children that strikes her
sensitive ear as disrespectful.
1t is the father who should
attempt to translate between
the generations. explaining the
one to the other. He should
educate the children to a
proper regard for the feelings
Of older people. while at the same
time revealing to his parents the
influences that mold the chill
Idren's behavior.
1t would be a great loss all
around to have the grandparents
leave this home because OF a
problem in child behavior that
should not be beyond the ability
of the father to solve, although
1t is obviously beyond the capac-
ity Of the mother to deal with
unaided.

curete chart OF this almost i'm
penetrable part Of South
America. It would be almost i'm
possible to find naturally existing
points on which the maps could
be based.
This is far from an unknown
land. Its major rivers have been
followed for three centuries. A
few bold hunters have been in
some Of its remotest corners and
some of it has been explored for
oil possibilities by several Amer
lean companies. Many of Its
mountains, part Of the western
most range Of the Colombian
Andes, are marked on maps
They have been reported by oil
explorers. by natives. and in re-
cent years spotted from the air
Still, comparison Of maps with
the present observations shows
many Of them have been placed
at least so miles out Of Their
true locations. When the pres
emit survey is finished the posi-
tons Of their SUBMITS. at least
will be known within a few
inches. The observers have &C

Joint Operations
The work Is being done with
the most advanced surveying
equipment furnished by the
United States Army. Colombia
provides both skilled and un-
skilled personnel.
This particular project involves
the whole rain forest area OF
Northwestern South America and
actually extends far beyond the
limits Of the Choco state though
Ecuador to Northern Peru. But
this particular region is the focus
Of the job and the hardest part
of It. Southwark the rain forest
Is less dense and more easily trav-
ersed.
The mountaintop signal sta
lions are manned and the deli
cate observations made entirely
by soldiers of the Engineer Corps
of the Colombian Army. Cen
orally a party of six is kept at a
station and sometimes more than
q month is required to complete
the observations. A great deal
depends on the visibility at night
and during the rainy season this
is extremely bad. A party is
maintained by frequent replace
ments, as health conditions are
quite precarious.
Suitable Peak Selected
First, what appears to be a
suitable mountaintop is selected,
usually from the air. The pilot
engineer notes its approximate
location with respect to some
recognizable river. At certain
points, especially where two
rivers join. balls of aluminium foil
are thrown into the treetops.
Back at headquarters a rough
sketch Is drawn showing the To-
cation-sometimes very rough

possible.

Union Vacation
Bible School Will
Be Held in August

The Union Vacation church
school for Protestant churches of
Oakland and vicinity will be held
in st. Marks Evangelical Lutheran
church during the first two weeks
of August, it was announced by
Rev. Charles Carlson, pastor.
He said the August date had been
set because it was the feeling that
the young people would be more
willing to attend and learn after
they had some vacation from public
school, rather than starting the va
cation church school Immediately
after the public school closed.
Appointed to work with the pas
tor will be Mrs Earl S. Lee, as lay
director who has had experience in
Christian Education and was form
erly superintendent of the Sunday
Church School at st. Marks.
The course for this year will be
a study of the Bible and the Home,
with the main emphasis being on
helping both student and parent
to have a more vital faith by rely
ing more on the word of God in
their everyday activities in the
home.

No Hearing Against
To Be Held

The case of Erwin Roth versus
William Webb Dewitt county
roads engineer, no. 1895, equity, in
the Garrett County Circuit court,
will not be heard, as the result of
pre-trial conference with at
torneys and Chief Judge George
Henderson recently.
The bill of complaint filed by
Mr. Roth had asked the court to
pass mandatory injunction re-
curing all funds received from the
State for road expenditures to be
deposited by the County Commits
sioners with the County treasurer
and not to be expended by the
Roads department except upon pay
ment to the department by the
treasurer after an order to pay
from the County Commissioners
had been given directly to the
treasurer and entered upon the
minutes of the Board of County
Commissioners.
Attorneys for Dewitt filed a
Joint demurrer and answer to the
bill of complaint which was the
reason for the prc-trial conference.
Judge Henderson, i'm written
report filed June II in the Circuit
Court here, declared: After argu-
ment on the demurrer and after a
general discussion of the whole
matter, it was agreed that the only
point at issue is as to whether or
not the treasurer of Garrett county
should handle all funds, including
those received by the County Com
missioners as road directors, which
come from the state of Maryland
from gasoline taxes, from racing
funds, motor vehicles, etc. 1t was
the final conclusion that the best
way to get this point properly be
fore the court was for the plaintiff
to file bill under the declaratory
Judgment act asking for the proper
construction of the statutes in
volved and making as parties de-
PENDANT the treasurer of Garrett
County, the other two county com
missioners and the County Com
missioners, a corporation, sitting
as the Garrett County Roads
Board" The Judge asked that ii
this was to be done, that it be done
quickly.
The agreement indicated that the
bill of complaint as such would not
be heard, amounting in substance
to sustaining the demurrer entered
by the defendant attorneys.
The suit would have attempted to
entirely change the way that the
County Roads Board has been do
ing business for the past ten or
fifteen years.

An Adequate Supply
of Polio Vaccine
Is Now Available

An adequate supply of polio vac
cine to give the third or booster
shot to children of the community
is now available, it was announced
this week by Dr. A. X. Jones, coun-
ty health officer.
Those children who received
their second shot in the school pro-
gram last fall are now eligible for
the reception of the third or boost
er shot. DR.. Jones suggested that
parents of children who received
the second shot six months or more
ago should take their children to
their family physician, or if this
is not possible to one of the health
department clinics.
Booster shots will be given by
the health department on the fol-
lowing schedule: Friendsville, on
Mondays, from l to p. M; Grants
vile, on Tuesdays, from 1 to q p.
M; Oakland, Tuesdays, from 8 a.
m until noon; Kitzmiller, on Thurs
days, from l to 3 p. m.
1t was indicated that there is
now enough polio vaccine available
in Maryland to meet the demand
for it, that the supply has increased
to the point of reaching the "ac-
ceptance level" This means the
point at which on a statewide basis
nearly everyone who is eligible and
to receive the vaccination
is able to do so.
DR.. Jones said that the receiving
of the third shot is where the i'm
point climbs very
rapidly,
