A recent Western visitor to
Communist China said he was
shocked at the pattern and scope
of Communist education.
''You see nurseries and primary
and secondary schools everywhere
you 60" he said, land the pro-
ducts of this system that 1 met
showed how twisted and incom-
plte their education was"
Young men and women who
have graduated from Communist
schools, he said, showed an alarm
ing over-confidence based to a
large extent on ignorance"
Several young Chinese officials,
he said, claimed u S. forces, and
not the Russians, cleared Man
churia of its industries at the end
of World War II.
Others, he said, were equally
convinced that the allies launched
the second front in Europe only
after Soviet troops had reached
Berlin.
And most everybody he talked
to, he said, was sure the United
States started the Korean War.

''The elm" he said, "is not doom

TITS true" he added, "that
Dutch elm disease has taken a ter
rible toll of this, the most beauti-
full tree in America And it has
been severe this summer"
But" Mr.. Cantwell said, "even
though is no known cure, Nature
seems to be finding a way-with
the help of man-of sparing the

and other factors in maintaining
robust tree health.
"Yet this is not enough" Mr..
Cantwell said, 1--WE must plant
elms-more and more of them,
across the nation, on lawns, along
streets, wherever trees grow. And
we must take care of them"
He said the "surest way of los
ing one species of tree is not to
plant them" He added:
But don't plant one street or one
lawn all the same species of tree,
whether it is, elm, maple, oak or
dogwood. Diversity. Mix the spe-
cies and blend large trees with
smaller ornamental ones. Insects
and diseases are just as likely at
some future time to strike down
oaks or naples and other trees if
only one species is planted.

Give Your Horse
Plenty OF Water

A pleasure horse will drink from
five to eighteen gallons of water a
day, according to Kent County
Agent George K. Vapaa. The exact
amount depends on how hard he is
working and the weather.
Make sure the horse gets all the
water he needs Water is necessary
for his health and well being. If
possible, have water before the
horse at all times. Otherwise, wa
ter him several times day.
There is one precaution in wa
tering a horse: never let hot
horse drink his fill of water and
then stand This could bring on a
condition of founder.
If you give water to hot horse
and he should be watered-then
keep him moving until he has cool
ed out. If you are out riding and
the horse is hot and tired give him
a good drink of water one to two
miles before he gets back to the
stable. This will allow you to walk
him the rest of the way so he can
cool out.
Take good care of your horse,
feed and water him regularly. See
that he gets plenty of exercise. If
you take good care of the horse
he'll reward you with many hours
of riding pleasure, Mr.. Vapaa says.

Their aim, they say. is practi-

Minister of Public Health Lii Te-
Chuan said recently:
THE education and care of
children is for the purpose of ser
wing production. (iD releases the
great potential labor power of
women and enables them to take
part in production"
A recent Peiping dispatch by
the official New China News Agen-
cy said items of millions of child
rem are entered in breast-feeding
rooms, nurseries and kindergar-
tens. AS result, it said, children
begin to- receive Socialist and
Communist education from child
hood"
A joint announcement from the
Ministries of Public Health and
education last month called for a
nationwide educational program
to teach children to love the Com
munist party, Chinese Communist
party Boss Mao Tse-Tung, social
ism, labor and the peoples COM
munes and to hate the United
States.
Minister Lii said children In
nurseries and kindergartens should
perform labor within their capa-
bilities" but in the case of very
young children, she said, 'this
labor should be tempered with
ease"
The joint announcement said
children should be taught to un-
derstand the happy life of children
in Socialist (Communist) count
ries and the bitter lot of children
of working people in the capita
list countries and those in colonial
and semi-colonial countries"

pecially taught that U. S. imper-

people of the world and must be

WESTBURY, N. Y. (P)-Tourists
who abhor guided tours through
old mansions, and yearn to sit
down somewhere and take off their
shoes, will appreciate the casual
approach adopted by the overseers
of a Long Island garden now on

There are no guides, few rules
and no time table for sightseeing.
Picnickers actually are encour-
aged.
This informal attitude was adopt
ed by the board of directors of Old
Westbury Gardens when the park
was opened to the public. Families
wander through the large brick
home formerly occupied by the
John S. Phipps family. move across
the garden to the children's play

houses are located, and often

HOLLYWOOD. Sept. S. (AP)
This department is in re-
ceipt Of a program from the
British Film Institute. which is
having a Joseph L. Mankiewicz
festival this summer.
It's a wonderful idea to review
the career of a film creator,
especially one as talented and
varied as Mankiewicz. How typ
ical that it has to be done in
England. The Europeans have
always been more progressive in
recognizing the director as the
No. / element in Aim making.
America has always been more
dazZled by the stars.
There is glimmer of hope.
Variety reports that the smash
success of PSYCHE" and "The
Apartment" is due in large part
to the name value of their
directors, Alfred Hitchcock and
Billy Wilder. Bravo. if so.

The institutes program gives
vivid account of Mankiewicz's $
+ broad experience in films. He
started by writing titles for pot
boilers at Paramount in the
silent days. Among his writing
credits in early talkies were that
fine tearjerker "Skippy" and a
wild farce, "Million-Dollar
Legs" with w. C. Fields, Hugh
Herbert, Ben Turpin and Jack
Oakie.
Shifting to MGM, he wrote o.
produced eight films for Joan
Crawford, including most of her

polish and sophistication that
