"Some one has asked how we

the answer was there isn't enough
time for the, shall we say happi-
ness in our little hamlet.

started off with a bang as the
Golden Age party was held at the
Woman's Club on Monday night,
December 9Th with fifty-five in
attendance, this meeting is looked
forward to from year to year by
the Golden Age group.
"The Woman's Society of
Christian Service of the Provi-
dence Methodist Church was
another high light of the season,
gifts were exchanged and a gen.
eral good time enjoyed by all. =
"The husbands of the Happy
Hearts Bridge Club were enter
tanned at the home of Mrs. Thorn
as Cahoon. This occasion is high
lighted with cheer and happy ex-
pectation for the holiday season.
1.-THE Christmas Pageant of the
Methodist Providence Church was
celebrated Wednesday with pomp
and ceremony, this was followed
by a lovely tea in the Sunday
School room.
"The Rebekahs celebrated a
Christmas party on Tuesday night
December GOTH, this is also a
glad affair as it is filled with
plans to make the needy and sick
ones happy sharing with them.
Baskets and fruit and candy were
distributed to the shut-ins by the
different churches.
"The carol singing by the girls
and boys were especially enjoyed
by the Golden Ayers as they went
from home to home.
"The Home Demonstration clubs
of Swan Quarter and Swindell's
Fork held their joint family night
prior to most of these meetings,
this proved to be very worth while
even though it was during the
cold weather"

Children Were the Winners

The school children of Fairfax
County, present and future, were the
real winners of Tuesdays $26 million
bond issue referendum in the rapidly
growing county. Many of today'S stu
dents there are being subjected to sub
standard classroom conditions. A short
age of claSSroomS has necesSitated i'm
proviSation to care for all who want to
learn. And with today's enrolment of
$4,000 expected to reach 10000 by 1865,
the space situation would have been in
tolerable without new construction in
the immediate future.
This was the background which
Fairfax County'S voters had in mind
as they approved four-year program
by an overwhelming margin. The VIC
tory for schools contrasted sharply with
neighboring Arlington'S recent rejec-
tion of school bond issue. In fair
ness to Arlington, however, it should
be pointed out again that, except for
one school, most of the money sought in
Arlington was slated for multipurpose
rooms, gymnaSiums and other facilities
regarded by majority the tax conscious
voters as not indispensable.

Commendotion

I wish to commend your
staff writer, George Wilson,
on his warm, sympathetic and
informative article on the
work of a Settlement House
in general and the pending
auction Of the equipment of
the Barney Neighborhood
House. in particular.
Remembering that we shall
be commemorating the Tooth
Anniversary of Jane AddamS
here in Washington this fall,
Mr.. Wilson's poignant des-
cription of the personal re-
lationShips enhanced and en-
riched by settlement. house
g rvlces, recalls to mind the
rich heritage left by her and
the other StalwartS Of the
settlement house movement
in this country and abroad.
THE old older changeth"
and as we make way for
progress" the other Wash
ington Settlements share in
the loss that is Barney's; but
confident that wherever it
plans to relocate, the spirit
of neighborliness and family
togetherness will not be lost.

Not Too Mony-but Some

In these days OF expressing preS1-
Dental preferences, Professor Dale B.
Harris of Pennsylvania State University
probably could win large and solid bloc
of juvenile votes. In effect, DR.. Harris
has gone on record before the National
Congress of Parents and Teachers
against loading down the '"Small fry"
with too many chores. 1t is just lot
of CUFF, he explained in language fully
understandable to the junior citizens,
to think that heavy responsibilities in
childhood develop greater sense of
responsibility in later years.
Presumably, DR.. Harris is not sug-
gesting that the small ones be given
literally nothing to do. Indeed, if he
has had any experience with that seq
ment of our population he is undoubt-
edly aware that if given nothing to do
they will find something-which can be
much worse There have been we'll
founded warnings, for example, that
Satan finds some mischief still for idle
hands to do"
For ourselves, we take increasing
comfort in Robert Louis Stevenson's
