every bit helps to keep it in
the foreground of ones think
ing. Such an array of gifts;
a variety of glass, china, pot
terry, jewelry, brass, toys and
even furniture will be on dis
play AND for sale. The Wo-
mems Auxiliary make this and
the annual fair the big eff
forts but their interests are
always in what will serve the
hospital best. So come one.
Come ALL
A bit of nostalgia goes with
the moving of the store, a
possession of Mr.. Harvey
Thompson and his family
through the years. Mr.. Thomp-
son has given it to the Lewes
Historical Society who will
set it up in that town and
have it as an example of store
keeping in other days. 1t goes
back to 1888 in its history
and many of the furnishings
of a store of that period are
still intact. / t is a fine ex-
ample of a period that is fast
disappearing. That style of
structure, with hand hewn
logs and a particular kind of
finishing is rare and Lewes
may be proud that it has a
relic of that kind. Likely, if
the local society had not had
the restoration of Silver Hill
Mansion for a project, they
might have asked for the
store, which was at one time
also a post Office. Thompson
vile, its present locale, will
miss the old building and its
reminder of other days.
That seems all for this week.
Enjoy the lovely weather and
the foliage that is so fast
leaving us.
Always,
Virginia S. Townsend

HARVEST SOYBEANS SAFELY


If the national experts are right,
farmers will harvest one of tn e
largest soybean crops in history.
But regardless of the size OF
your crop, you're usually pressed
for time to get the harvesting done,
The ever present desire to finish
in hurry makes soybean harvest
a frenzied and dangerous activity
If you haven't started harvesting
yet, adjust the combine properly
now. Don't take unnecessary
chances. If weeds are a problem,
stop the combine to make the need
ed adjustments.
And don't forget that red flag
when you're on the road. Without
it you're target for an accident

2 Problem Areas

William A. Linthicum, jr., has

Situation and long-range county

AS a member of the County
Democrats slate, he feels that
I'VE in Montgomery County are
faced with a choice between top
grade educational services and
the accompanying burdens on
the one hand and second-rate
education with fewer tax raises
on the other.
1--WE County Democrats
have made our choice. We
belive we must meet the
needs of our children first"

Park and Planning
Changes Suggested

A need to revamp the Mary
land-National Capital Park and
Planning Commission has been
suggested by William Sher,
County Democrats candidate for
an at-large seat on the Mont
gomery County Council.
In somewhat yelled terms,
Sher told the ontgomery County
Citizens Planning Association
that the present planning
method has failed.
"The problems that have
beset the planning process"
he said. shave been largely
due to the failure in the sys-
tenn. The County Council Is
the elected body responsible
to the people, but its author
ity in the planning area has
been handicapped by law.
"The policies e T. b lished
through planning cut into every
area of government. Yet the
councils influence on the plan
ming commission seems to be
ambiguous and inadequate"
Sher said that planning, as a
policy making function, must be
an instrument of the County
Council.
Like any other department 1t
must be attuned to the policies
of government; like other de-
partments in government the
planning commissioners should
serve at the will and conven-
fence of the council and carry
out its programs. It's plans
should have status only upon
the endorsement of the council.
"The present budgetary con-
troll as a means of directing
programs Is grossly made
quate. The councils apprO-
priatiOns must give direction
