Rabbits membership in the or

But the Rabbi was persistent
He had been invited By an old
timer to attend, and to affiliate.
So he showed Up at the regular
meeting. The bigot again voiced
his objection, but was over-rul-
ed. The Chair decided, "Any

A note from Yesterday:

How often I've sat and watched the moon and thought
about # nters of mans history hat me moon controlled
tides was something did not learn until late in my fe
and in those Terms I've watched and wondered has been
interesting to speculate about those primitive folk who Wof-
SHIPPED the moon in the practice Of their religion And only
heaven knows of all the young lovers Whoye sat beneah
the luminous moon and made their lives worth the eort
and the poets WhoVa sung in such beauty about the
moon and the farmers whoVe watched il, SO that plant
ing would be done at The correct time.
And if was late in life that learned The moon had
dark side Somehow it was Of no great interest TO me- men
or now
fryaen want ito see it and for what feason is beyond
me- don't understand. Oh, | know there's much talk
about Controlling The earth from the moon
Far be il from me to hamper progress; favor pro-
oress am hot opposed 10 seeing The other side Of the
moon But am by that like am by missions TO Africa.
see need for work at home first would never think Of
cleaning my neighbours door step before had cleaned my
own.
The dark side Of the moon, indeed
And what about the dark side Of man? That man can
control The earth from the moon is possible surely But
man hss failed to control earth from earth it seems to me-
The dark side of man is yet unexplored TO any de-
gree and that would be my first task When the dark side Of
man MIGHT be lighted with humility patience and virtue,
then and only then, would undertake 10 do something
about the dark side Of The moon.
Then and only then would approach the dark side Of
fhe moon and I'D do II with prayer on my lips in
humility and with thanks unto God.
There's no trouble on the MOON The real trouble is at
local court houses and in the hearts Of men.

SUPPORT HOME MERCHANTS

In the Sidney Herald are to be found the advertisements OF
many Sidney merchants. These merchants are, through the
medium of our paper, asking for your support.
We all realize that thousands of dollars go out of Sidney
every year which should and could be spent in our conmun-
ity. 1t behooves all thinking people to consider this matter
and keep as much of our money at home as possible.
The merchants of this community are not asking for, nor
are they entitled to, charity. If a purchaser will consider the
service that backs up a sale made by a local business house,
the immediate delivery effected, it will be plain that Buying
at Home" has its advantages.
When you buy at home it creates a larger demand, local
merchants will be able to increase their stock, thus offering
a larger variety which can compete with some of the stores
in the larger cities. They cannot do this, however, until they
have some assurance of general local support.
We call attention to the fact that a community, like an in
dividual, cannot spend its money and keep it too, but a COM
munity made up of many people, can spend that money time
and time again, among its own people.

ARMY PROTESTS

The Army has protested against
the substantial support it has to
provide the other military serv-
ices, despite cuts in its manpower
and appropriations.
1t referred to a variety of
services in the field, usually of
a logistics and supply nature,
which sometimes r compensated
for with bookkeeping transfers of
appropriated funds.
The Army contends that the
support it receives in return from
the other services sis not on a
par with that furnished by the
Army"
The Army's complaints were
contained in an official newsletter
issued by the deputy chief of
staff, Lieut.. Gen. j. F. Collins,
at the Army's Pentagon quarters.

Tennis fans are accustomed
to hearing about Donna Floyd's
triumphs. The l8-year-old Ar
lington girl, now ranked 18th
among women players in the
Nation, has yet to achieve the
stature of Penelope Anderson
of Richmond. She made the
First Ten in l926-27 when
Helen Wills and Helen Jacobs
were coqueens of the court but
this could be the year that
Donna moves into the charmed
circle.
Meanwhile, three other
Washington area girl tennis
players are beginning to make
a name for themselves. Carol
Scuthmcyd, nearing her 10th
birthday, is the best of these.
Carol has won five tourna-
ments. She has had the benefit
of two defeats by Donna Floyd
and has moved out of the Mid
die Atlantic area to gain added
experience by playing in the
Western Junior Girls and the
Kentucky State Girls. Carol
will play in the National Girls
Tournament in Philadelphia in
August.
Starting tennis at the age of
g, Congressional's champion
girl player had the advantage
of sound coaching from Hank
Danilowicz, former pro at Con-
gressional. She continues tc
take lessons from Bob Thomas
present pro at the club.
Next of Washington's new
triumvirate is Cynthia Goeltz
daughter of the tennis profes.
sional at Columbia. Cynthis
lost four out of five times las
year to Carol in girls play but
when the Congressional young
ster moved out of the girls di'
vision, Cynthia took over. Tit

coaching. She hits the classic
Goeltz backhand.
The third of the new young
crop Of girl players is Betty Ann
Murphy Of Falls Church. Betty
Ann lost to Cynthia in the
finals of both the Friends and
d. C. Girls tournaments but in
the recent Virginia State closed,
she won the Is and under sin
giles and doubles and the 10
and under doubles. Betty Ann
is small girl but she makes
up in fight what she lacks in
stature. The Falls Church girl
also learned her tennis from
Danilowicz and is continuing
her coaching under Thomas.
Betty Ann is now in Chicago
playing in the National Girls
Championship.
Each Of these three girls has
three things in common; good
coordination, the benefit of
good coaching and parents who
recognize the value of tennis
in developing confidence and
poise.
1t will be interesting to see
which of the three is our next
Donna Floyd. A fourth girl,
Holly winters, l5-year-old
daughter of a Navy captain,
may eclipse all of them. Holly
has carried both Carol South
mayd and Cynthia Goeltz to
five sets IN tournaments. She
is spending the coming winter
in Florida where daily play
may round out her game which
is now featured by a strong
forehand.

as meals and bait.
Nevertheless, a tarpon is a
great game fish, a spectacular
fighter given to breath-tak
leaps until exhaustion. It's
novel to go after one in Vir-
ginia, so far removed from the
tarpon'S usual hauntS.
Action at Close Quarters
There's another side that APP
peals to real fishermen. Nearly
all the fishing is from out
boards with no skipper to han
die the craft and no mate to
bait your hook and gaff the
fish. All the fight is at close
quarters and you'll have no
help except perhaps from a
companion.
Although we hooked and lost
a tarpon on our second visit
and three were taken in day
by one man last week, the fact
is that this tarpon fishing still
is an uncertain quantity.
The tarpon come and 60 in
hundreds and even thousands
through the quits" and
drains and across the bays
of this vast salt marsh coun-
try between Chincoteague and
Cape Charles. A strike or two
and they're gone again. So far
we haven't found the real
secret of catching them.
Fine TarpOn Lost
On Sunday we told how
George Killmon of Wacha-
preague caught his three tar
pom in Gull Marsh Channel.
which lies not far inside Great
Machipongo inlet. Another was
taken the day before.
The day Killmon made his
catch a Washington area party
had chartered a big boat as
a mother ship for its two out
boards. Five other outboards
made the trip so that there
were eight boats anchored in
the channel. Each was manned
BY two or more anglers. No
other fish we're caught but
there were five other strikes.
That night the Washington
group stayed in the channel
with the charter boat while the
other outboarders returned.
The purpose was to test night
fishing for tarpon as it is done
in Florida.
Vernon VIM was getting
ready for dinner when a tar
pom hit the bait 20 feet from
the boat, the Evelyn Cree out
of Wachapreague. 1t took the
angler by surprise and
promptly threw the hook.
Channel Quiet All Night
All night the anglers fished
in relays, but never heard OF
saw a thing. Even in the early
morning when the tide ebbeo
and tarpon should have been
rolling" in the channel by the
hundreds there was no sign OF
life.
The next day three more
outboards came out from the
mainland and the fishing re-
Sumed. At high tide, James
ODonnell and Jack Snyder Of
the Washington party went
exploring. In one place they
found many gulls circling anc
veinly cast tarpon plugs unit
their arms were tired.
After the tide dropped, 6
clammer came along and tolc
the fleet that he had seer
thousands of tarpon crossing
the flats. 1t wasn't long before
they appeared in Gull Marsh
