You asked about making
braided rugs from nylon hose.
I make crocheted rugs from

by using dyed old tricot knit
underwear. dyed worn out
curtains and other materials,
for circles in the rug.
I use the feet Of the stock

Of cutting and sewing.
Use the largest wood or
metal crochet hook you can
get. Do not cast over. Just
pun through. To keep the
rug flat, add Q chain stitch
from time to time.
After completing the rug
I use 1t upside down for O
while until It Is "set" and
fiat when the finished side
is on top. BY the way, the
underside is attractive, too.

BILL and l used to sleep on a sleeping
porch which was protected by the splendid
oaks on Montgomery Avenue. At that time
there We're also tall chestnut trees. But they
have gone with the blight We used to lay in
bed and watch the leaf laden boughs of these
giant trees thrash in the wind Bill was older
than l and he would tell me about the wolves,
tigers, ships and trains that his imagination
saw in these giant oaks He would also tell
me stories and then embarrass me by asking
he was my big brother" And he was a

The Season for People

Summer is for the birds. Summer is also for
children for harassed commuters who hate snow for
beautiful girls who seem to take Incompatible
sheen with their sun tans and white cotton dresses,
for anyone who loves the outdoors done up in the
sparkling greens and golds of without peer.
Awake on summer morning, with the dew gls-
ening outside, with the of coffee perking and
eggs frying with the mockingbird running his gamut
of limitations with the sound of children eager to start
their play before another minute has passed
What could be more invigorating?
Follow boy scuffng the dust with his bare feet
as ne investigates the mysteries of wild flower or
frog as he throws his entire being into game of
kickbal whose outcome so much but soon fades
into proper perspective with his often irritating but
nearly always perceptive questions he finds delight
in the shapes of the clouds overhead which turn from
elephant into castle into almost anything -.
What could be more stimulating?
Watch the clouds yourself as the thunderheads
mount as the atmospheric mists boil across the SUM-
as the world qurets down to wait for the impending
rains, the wind rises almost mperceptbly until the
leaves turn their white faces to the gale as the first
drops make craters in the dust as waves of falling
rain sweep across the skies -.
What could be more awe-inspiring?
Then watch for the inevitable demise of the storm
the wind dies, the drops slow to little more than
drizzle the leaves do their about-face and sparkle
with the jewels the rains have left as the skies now
ceansed of dust deepen into blue that is so beautiful
it almost hurts
What could be more satisfying?
That's summer-whch is for the birds for chill
dren, for pretty girls, for people .
What could be more wonderful?

The unanimous Supreme Court decision in favor
of Roy Torcaso has happily reaffirmed the consttu
tional separation of church and state.
The case stemmed from the refusal by Maryland
officials to Torcasos notary public license be-
cause he said he atheist
BY its ruling, the Supreme Court has struck
strong, and we hope permanent, blow against the ten
dency in circles to make religion test of per-
sons ability to perform his duties.
We thought the Founding Fathers had made it
quite clear that mans religion lack of it, shall
have absolutely nothing to do with his appointment
or election to public office
In no official document or opinion that we know
of is there any requirement that candidate for pub
lie office must be Christian, Jew, Mohammedan
or profess any religious belief or faith.
Any attempt to impose such condition is as
much tyranny of the mind and spirit the Spanish
Inquisiton the Salem witch burnngs. We hope this
nation has come too far along the road to civilization
and tolerance to return to those shameful periods in
history.
Thomas jefferson summed it up when he wrote
to friend: II have upon the altar of God eter
nal hostility against every form of tyranny the

The Old Trunk
Was Full Of Letters
Welsh Rare Bit

This past week, while putting the house
back in ORDER 1 discovered in a battered up
old trunk a vast hoard of letters which
had written home over long, long period of
years. had often wondered where my let.
ters had gone, but, as is the usual case,
had waited until my mother and father had
died, before 1 asked the questions only they
could answer.
These letters were bound and sorted.
Judging from the way the knot was tied
and from the string used, it was my father
who had bound them. The string looked like
that once used by the Clerk of Court to tie up
the equity papers and the knot was one used
by western cowboys. 1 have not counted
them, but they must come to over four
thousand because they We're written by me
from the time was ten years old to the end
of World War II. Roughly, they include the
tennis years, the college years, and the war
years.
Letters are revealing of the writer. 1t is
apparent to me, after reading what / wrote
thirty years ago. that my love for Rockville
and Mungummery County covers my life like
canopy It is also apparent that this strong
hold that Maryland has over me has had
large influence upon what l am or will be-
Furthermore, it is apparent that the incidents
of my boyhood have largely nodded the man.
l am moved by the present memory of what
happened 40 years ago as much as l was
moved when wrote about it in 1943 In this
sense, the finger of the child points the way
for the man to follow
Let me quote few paragraphs from
letter dated July Ia, 1943. 1t was written by
me when 1 was on watch from 1900 to 0400.
1t was written by naval officer who was
scared lonely and who was seeking by writ
ing to make himself a bit closer to the things
and persons who were. once dear to him.
Some of the good things of Rockville
which l remember from way back when 1
was going to Rockville Elementary School
are so small and little that they could only
be important to a very small and little boy.

Legs Should Be Used

Juvenile Court Judge Alfred D. Noyes had the
right idea when he suggested the other day that more
high school students their legs instead of the gas
pedal to get to and from school.
We would even broaden his suggestion to embrace
Junior high school students well as 9TH and 9th
graders
Board of Education regulations call for buses to
transport elementary pupils living more than three
quarters of mile walking distance from school, Junior
high students get this privilege if they live than
10 miles walking distance from their school, and the
limit for senior high students is miles walking dis
tance.
These limits should be revised sharply upward
particularly in the densely populated Wheaton, Be-
thesda Silver Spring and Kensngton
We have no quarrel with the use of buses in the
rural areas where schools generally widely sep
arated But certainly this is not the in the SUBJ
urban areas And it would be far less expensive in the
long for the county to build sidewalks along heav
lily travelled major highways which must be used by
school children rather than continue to buses in
these sections.
Even where there are sidewalks, these bus regu-
lations prevail. This is completely unrealistic.
What's wrong for example, with an 11-year-old
child walking mile mile and half to elemen-
tary school? Or 13year-old walking miles to
junior high, or 16-year-old walking 212 miles or
even 3 miles to high school?
These distances, in each case, are not too far for

walk mile in Is to 25 minutes, depending on his age
and how long he dawdles on the way.
It would do no good for us to recall how far we
walked to school. That occurred before the and
anything that far back is lost in the mists of time for
the present generation and is usually dismissed as
barbaric.
Suffice it to say that we and others in our tribe
walked great deal further to school, and off side
walks, than do present pampered petsand it did
us no HARM
OF course there is great deal more traffic now,
and the hazards corespondingy greater But after
watching the acrobatic antics of students leaping,
dodgng and sliding between cars to cadge rides
feel quite certain that requiring them to walk to school
would present little, if any dangers.

Charles Matthias isn't going to

allow a big fight to grow into
