State Relief
Expenditures
Total $109,t01.

Relief expenditures in Noble
county totaled $109, 1024O for the
year of 1857, according to reports
from c. R. Atkinson, county
auditor
The amount spent in Noble
county was considerably less in
comparison with neighboring
counties and other counties
throughout the state. Expendi-
lures in neighboring counties last
year were as follows: Guernsey,
$227,413.81; Monroe, 1882, ,1O0.41;
Morgan, S236,773.91; Muskingum,
$1,022, ,l00.01; Perry, $364,815.36
and Washington, $371,78
On a statewide basis last
year, expenditures hit a record
peak of $82,657,576. This was an
increase of $6,324,985 over relief
spending in 1856, according to
State Auditor James A. Rhodes.
County expenditures for all
kinds of relief have increased in
the last 10 years from $37 mil
lion in 1948 to 1925 million in
1857. During the decade many
counties took over the poor relief
load of many cities, which ac-
counts in part for the big jump
in county relief spending.

People W Kno~
Coffee Hour Proves Point
By Kathleen Leary
Woman's Editor

Retarded Montgomery County
teen-agers are learning to cook
and sew and entertain in public
school home economics classes
which as little as three years
ago would not have been open
for special education.
The end of school last month
marked completion of a year of
such course for IA retarded
local girls. They climaxed the
event with a coffee hour" at
Garrett Park Elementary School
in Kensington and it was a sight
to see.
Guests were welcomed by a
student hostess and guided about
the classroom by one of her class
mates. Tastefully arranged floral
displays decorated the coffee ia
bic laden with hors doeuvres,
cake and sugared nut brownies.
The teenagers arranged every de-
tail.
Other examples of the years
work were evident in the exhibits
of pottery and puppet making,
rug weaving, a collection of cook
books and sewing projects.
While guests sampled refresh
ments, Mrs. Joseph Young, the
teacher, described additional ac-
tivitieS in which the group of
educatable retarded youngsters
participated. They took a field
trip to a department store to see
new styles and fabrics, toured a
potato chip plant and learned the
story of flour making at flour
mill.
The course was instituted by
the county's Department of Spe-
cial Education, led by Mrs. Miriam
t. Tannlauser, its director since
1850. A guiding light in this dark
field of education, she feels all
retarded children can be helped
and the new home economics
classes are proving her point.

worthwhile job.
He can simply ask himself:
Are my experiences SO reward
ing that feel that l am getting
more out of my service than l
am giving?"
If he can truthfully answer
Eyes" then he should stick with
it. He is doing a good job and
his services are sorely needed. In
fact the community could use
many more like him.
The opposite, the Lady Count
full, Look how much I'm doing!"
attitude is exactly what isn't
needed. To be constantly aware
of how much is being given
means that the individual is Civ
ing very little of himself and
that's. what counts.
True of all community serv-
ice it especially applies to Red
Cross Gray Ladies who work
with neurO-psychiatric patients.
There is one service which the
Gray Ladies offer which these
patients can't get anywhere
else.
1t is the personal contact with
a warm, friendly human being
who isn't doctor or nurse or
a member of the family but who
the community which
sooner or later the patient will
have to face.
Mrs. Eric Collins. of Bethesda
is one of these Gray Ladies.
After five years of working
with neuro-psychiatric patients at
Bethesda Naval Hospital, Mrs.
Collins still feels that it was by
accident that she was chosen for
this field after her Gray Lady
course.
After an hours interview, 1
could tell her why the powers
that be at the Red Cross picked
her for this type of job. Un.
consciously she passed my true
test" with flying cOIOrs as she
told NE over and over again
how wonderful her experiences
had been and how rewarding.
To her it's miracle to have
a patient who has sat unmeved
and untouched in another world
for days and weeks suddenly
snap out of it and greet her with
a smile and a Hello, Mrs. Col
Inns"
She is amazed when they tell
her that all the time they had sat
like statues, corresponding. they
had been aware of her and her
friendly concern for them.
Although she knows the inn
portance of the personal con-
TACT" she doesn't realize how
strong a contact her outgoing per-
sonality makes. Reality can sud
denly become acceptable if it
includes a person like this blue
eyed, petite grandmother who
ooks as much like a grandmother
as my kid sister.
The Gray Ladies' role of
bridging the gap between the
lark worlds of the mind and the
world is most important
n a military hospital. For in
hese hospitals, whether it is a
broken ankle or a broken mind,
here is no period of GONZALES.
,ence at home. Patients are kept
until they are well enough to re.
2ort for duty. This makes the
'onvalescent period more difficult
o bear and it is up to the Gray
ladies' to help the patients bear it,
Here, Mrs. Collins digresses
to point out that helping the
Gray Ladies Is a community
full of unknown and unsung
people who give hours of their
time for picnics, parties, square
dances, baseball games, theater
outings, etc.
She speaks with awe of the |
many high-salarled professional |
who devote hours of |
Inpublicized time to perform
noes in hospital wards. Her par
ocular favorites are the singer

charlie Byrd, who have done an

One fact l never knew before
is that besides Gray Ladies there
