Parties Need Imagination
To Be q Success

Some parties are so dull
and stilted and some are such
fun.
I was invited to a birthday
party in the country this
summer that was of the
"fun" variety. In the first
place, you could tell that the
people who had planned it
had a good time preparing
for it.
1t was given in a little red
house with white trim that
stood at the end of a short
street or lane.
AS we drove up the first
thing we saw was about Is
beautiful balloons tied to the
lamp post.
Then we were ushered
through a white gate into a
garden alive with flares post
ed at strategic positions
around the grounds.
An opened Japanese UNI
brella lent a festive air and
they had painted a branch
white and had tied balloons
of all shapes, colors and sizes
to their balloon BUSH"
Over the old we'll roof was
draped a white and red
striped bedspread with red
fringe looped up with white.

opy. Under this hung an an

boards over the old well
drinks were served.
We danced to a record

time. but ! am sure it was the

for the party. Try it some

On September Z, Principal
Joseph P. Carlo and 81
teachers were on hand as
one of Washington's newest
schools, the Frank W. Ballou
High School, opened It's
doors to greet the first stu
dent body of 675 pupils.
The stunning modernistic
structure, an object of pride
and admiration in its South
east Washington neighbor-
hood, received only sopho-
mores and juniors. This
year there is no senior class;
but next year, when there
will be seniors, the school
will be nearer its capacity of
1900.
Unlike many other schools,
which when opened may
lack such things as stadi-
ums, gymnasiums and cafe
terias, Ballou, costing ap-
proximately $3.75 million to
build, is complete. The
building itself is styled with
soft pastels and interesting
mosaic patterns. ClasSrooms
are large and sunny with ORR
ginal but practical touches.
The layout of Ballou
places all noisy areas, the
gym which seats 1000, the
auditorium seating 845 and
music rooms, in ground
floor wings of the building
and all academic classes in
a central tower.
The claSSrooms include
three biology labs boaSting
an up-to-date greenhouse;
one physical science lab; a

teams are quite appropri-

knights. The football team
is playing Junior varsity
this year. Next year, they
will wear the school colors
of navy blue and gold with
pride and distinction to play
varsity.
The stadium, seating g..
900, and the gymnasium
will be put to good use. The

There is also a cafeteria
which serves 600, an elevator
and two lounges, complete
with television sets.
The lounges have been
provided for the use of fac
ulty members.
For some students, classes
begin at 8 am. Strains of
orchestral melody and
voices raised in song can be
heard in the early morning
hours. Cadets in smart
khaki uniforms drill and pa
rade with staunch military
bearing. Young painters
dabble in the fields of Gre
alive arts.
Fourth and fifth periods
are the designated lunch
hours. Lunch lines operate
quickly and smoothly. Va
ried and appetizing lunches
are served in the modern
cafeteria, from which the
kitchen area is closed OF, a
feature unique in District
schools.
A courtyard lies adjacent
to the cafeteria. In the
spring, students will be able
to have their noontime
meal in q garden atmos-
phere. Pleasant courtyards
characterize the building
plan. The library. too, opens,
to provide an outdoor read
ing room.
Because it is a new school.
there hasn't been time to
build q complete extra-cur-
ricular program, but It's
off to a good start. There Is
a Public Affairs Club, a
Spanish Club, a Dramatics
Club, a Science Club, a Math
Club, a Student Council, a
Red Cross organization and
a school band. There is also
a cadet band, and an or
chestra.
The school theme is one
of medieval lore, so the

will not be published until
next year. There is a small
but jealous journalism class.
The school paper, which
will be named the Charter
in keeping with the medic
val theme. is still in the
very basic stages Of plan
ming. It will be the voice
and organ Of the student
body.
The school is named for

ing all who look its way to Jesus as Gods
Son, the hope of the world. Its doors are
open to those who from the quiet depths of
their hearts would reach out to Cod in
simple worship and obedient living.
You may be surprised to find that there
is very little ready-made for you in this
church. There is no ready.made creed such
as you could find in many places. You
accept the word of God and allow it to
guide as you believe everything it teaches.
There are no ready.made prayers. Every
believer voices his own earnest longing for
the presence of Cod and for His sustenance
and guidance. There is no ready.made
order for worship. Each church of our
Lord arranges its own order in harmony
with the acts Of worship described in the
New Testament. There is no resdy.made
music. Everyone makes his own music by
singing as did the early Christians, and
it is sweet music to the ears Of God in
proportion to the worshipper's sincerity and
humble obedience to Him.
You may be surprised to find that this
church is free under Christ as its only head.
1t has no organic connection with any other
congregation, but is bound by unity of
faith with all those who speak where the
Bible speaks and are silent where the
Bible is silent.

In this church every Christian is a priest.
There is no distinction such as CLERGY"
and "laity" All Christians are called to
be saints" Their gifts and functions may
differ but their status before God is the
same. Jesus Christ is their high priest.
This church is the outward manifestation
of the deep conviction in many hearts that
simple New Testament Christianity can be
produced today by the same living ,cord
which produced it in the first century.
Members do not claim perfection as human
beings. All were sinners who were saved
by the grace of God upon their obedience
TO the gospel. They seek to humbly serve
Jesus and TO urge all others to do so. Their
aim is to glorify God by exalting Christ
in their lives and teaching.
Truly, to be a free New Testament
Christian, without dictation from man, is
glorious privilege.

Sits Down and Writes
Mr.. Dunn had been interested
in composing, he says, long
before he ever put pen to paper.
Finally, around 1850, he de-
cided it was time to stop pro-
craStinating. One day he listed
himself in the program as COM
poser of the offertory to be
played the following Sunday.
Then Saturday evening he sat
down at the organ, picked the
first two notes of a piece of
music setting on the organ, and
began writing.
The piece was a success and
was later scored for orchestra
and played by the symphony
orchestra of the Foundry
Methodist Church. Since then,
Mr.. Dunn has written other
choral and Orchestral works
that have BEN performed in
Washington churches of all de-
nominations.
A versatile man, Mr.. Dunn
is a substitute teacher in the
District school system and is
taking a course in commercial

Hymn-Writing Winner
Is Self Orgonist

If the District Chapter of the
American Guild of Organists
had used formal training as a
yardStick in judging their re-
cent Hymn-Tune Writing Con-
test, they would have had little
cause to name Temple D. Dunn
winner of it.
Mr.. Dunn, who is organist-
director of Wesley Methodist
Church, has never had a for
NAL course in harmony and
has taken only one semester of
composition at Howard Uni
versity. Yet his musical setting
for Sing Praise to God Who
Reigns Above" took first place
in the contest and will be con-
Sidered for inclusion in the
new Methodist Hymnal.
This lack of formal training
has actually been one of the
lesser handicaps overcome by
the 43-year-old organist during
his musical career. Since the
age of 4, when he tried to stop
a laWnmower blade with his
right hand, Mr.. Dunn has had
full use of only two fingers on
that hand.
Job as Organist
Still. he said, he "just liked
music" and tried to play the
piano with hopes of being able
some day to pick out some
hymns.
He did better than that. In
his senior year in high school
in Louisville, KY, he got a Job
as organist in a local church.
The pay was $40 a month, he
recalls.
1T was before I'd had any
organ lessons, and I almost
suggested to them that it was
too much"
Later he attended the Uni
versity Of Louisville and was
graduated from there in 1910.
with a degree in physics and
natural sciences. He avoided
studying music there, however,
because he feared his missing
fingers would prove too great
a handicap for that.
After teaching school for a
year in Louisville, he came to
washington and worked for the
