Non, Monsieur

1t was a little surprising -and disappointing
to learn of County Councilman Charles
H. Jamison's reaction to the Foreign-Lan-
guage-in-E -Elementary-S Schools program.
This is a program, only four years old,
in which 800 county elementary school chill
dren are now successfully participating. 1t
has grown by leaps and bounds and the
whole thing is extra curricular-the kids
attend the foreign language classes after
school hours and their parents pay tuition.
1t is too bad that Mr.. Jamison has
closed mind on the subject He is in posi-
ton of such influence that it would seem
appropriate for him to at least keep an open
mind on the question until he thoroughly
understands what it is all about. He admit
ted that he knew little or nothing of the
program or its goals yet he Immediately
branded it 'frill, said he was Shocked
by such goings on, and, in effect, dealt the
program serious blow.
It deserves somewhat better treatment
1t is surprising that there are some who
apparently still need to be reminded that the
world is getting smaller by the hour. We
must disagree with our good friend Roy Lee
Yinger (see his column on this page) who
sees little point in United States efforts to
bring about peace and greater understanding
through helping nations less fortunate than
ourselves. And, apparently, Mr.. Jamison,
too, would like to erect high wall around
Montgomery County and pretend that the
rest of the world isn't there.
1t would seem automatic that greater
world understanding could be achieved
through increased ability of different peo-
plies to communicate with each other. Mr..
Jamison should re-examine his arbitrary
stand on this question.

we give lot more thought to isolationism and the

We are still the richest nation in the world,

Most School Days
Lost This Winter

Those oldytime winters may have been longer
and colder than nowadays but none, in the mem
ory of schools officials caused as much trouble
as this years.
No records have been kept but oldtimers at
the board of education are positive that the eight
days lost in the present school year set all
time high.
However, the veteran officials also point out
that in the 'old days" the county schools were
walking schools and did not have to close down
every time transportation slowed to standstill
because of snow or ice.
Transportation problems were the cause of
lost days in this years previous storms Last week
another modern convenience" electricity was the
culprit
Power failure cut off heat to more than 80
county schools Thursday and Friday. On Mon
day, two schools Sandy Spring and Fairland ele-
mentaries were still closed for the same reason.
Telephone service to many of the schools was not
restored until this week. either.
Superintendent C. Taylor Whittier as yet, has
no recommendation for making up last weeks
two lost days The other six days will be made up
by closing school June 13 instead of June IL
and cutting four days off the Easter holiday.
Saturday school or keeping the schools open
until June IL the only possibilities seen so far

Plea for Reaction
Proves Fruitless

The school board dreW only mild reaction to
its plea two weeks ago for public opinion on extern
sion of the school year.
OF the few cards and letters received by the
board of education, the majority were opposed to
extending the number Of school days beyond the
superintendent's recommendation.
AS result, Superintendent c. Taylor Whit
tiers proposed calendar for 195S-59 was approved
Monday for 1S3day school year.
Board member Wye Barrow who had origi-
nally called for longer year. did not even get
second for his motion to increase the days to 1877
by cutting four davs off the Easter holiday.
Whittier's proposal adds three days to this
years 1S0-day year which is the legal minimum
TO qualify for state aid.
This allows threeday leeway for bad weather
which complicated this years calendar by closing
the schools for total of eight days
Another change next year will telescope the
teachers professional meetings from four halliday
sessions to two whole days. both on Mondays, to
give the children extra long weekends.

Letters
BubY chicks

Let's talk about baby chicks
for the children at Easter. 1t is
a sweet idea and all that, but
in actual practice it does not
work out for the chicks or
for the children.
Chicks die very quickly if they
are not kept warm. All of the
joy and delight that a child
may have in a soft baby chick
Is turned to bewilderment and
dismay when it sickens and
dies. And then we have those
questions to try to answer: Why
did 1t die? What did you do with
it? Why did you bury it? Can
| dig it up again and see if it
maybe is alive again? Why?
Now if we have a brooder,
that's one thing. But if we are
proud and happy parents who
have never raised poultry. know
this: chicks one week old
should be kept at 95 degrees,
two weeks old at 80 degrees,
three weeks old at 85 degrees,
and from 10 to so degrees from
four to eight weeks old. (This is
what a chick-and-grain man told
mel. Anyhow, chicks have to
be kept very warm-and they
have to have food and water
at all times.
If they are so delicate, we
may be wondering, how come
they can be heard and seen
peeping in the Express Office?
Surely the Express Company
and Post Office does not supply
mother hens for the comfort of
the chicks in transit. Well, a
chick can survive AZ hours after
being hatched without food be-
cause it can use the nourish-
ment of the original yolk in its
body. Chicks in transit are
usually day-old chicks, and they
are rushed to their destination.
Some cities and states have
forbidden the sale of Easter
chicks, ducklings and rabbits
as being cruel. Detroit, Dayton,
Newark, Indianapolis. Milwau-
kee, Kansas City tKansas) !,
Kansas City (Mo.J, and New
York City are a few such locali-
ties.
Chicks and ducklings and rab-
bits are not toys. They are living
creatures. If they are squeezed,
it hurts. If they get too cold,
they suffer and die. Let us
parents celebrate our love for
our children at Easter in a hap
pier way.
