Eighteen-year-old Russell
Tome, one of the many sightless
people who have been rehabili-
tated by the Columbia Light
house for the Blind workshop,
demonstrated one method of
how the sightless person can
see" his work. He used the
raised markings on a braille
ruler in plotting the design on
a mosaic tiled table tray.
Steers, candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for Con-
gressman-at-large in Maryland,
has been serving the Lighthouse
for a number of years. His
interest in working with the
sightless goes back to college
days when he read two courses
to a blind fellow student at
Yale.
]. Arthur johnson, execu-
tive director of the Lighthouse,
and Steers announced that for
the first time in Russell Tones
Is years he will be able to at.
tend classes in public school.
This outstanding success
story" said Steers, "is directly
due to the perseverance of this
boy and the excellent training
program at the Lighthouse. The
Lighthouse program is concern
ed with making whole and
productive h u m a n being
through minimizing the limita-
tons that blindness imposes
upon an individual.
The Lighthouse has six manu-
featuring departments which
produce a variety of manufac.
tured and hapd.crafted items.
Says Steers, "the superior
workmanship of the products,
which are sold in the Washing
ton area especially Prince
Georges and Montgomery Coun-
ties-is testimony to the sue.
cess of the training program.
"The Lighthouse must have
community support. Right now
this organization is functioning
successfully because of the gen.
crosby of over 10000 people.
This support comes from contri-
buttons, from sub-contracting
work for industrial firms, and
through the purchases of the
quality products made here by
the sightless employed at the
Lighthouse"

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: Would you please
tell me the origin Of the word
"clarinet"-and how it got its
name? It is very important as
my father says If I can find
how it got its name. I may
learn to play one. Thank you
muchly. - Kathleen Guilday,
Glenshaw, Pa.
Answer: Clarinet" came into
English from French Just about
the time the United States was
being founded. It first appears
in print in 1896 but was part of
the spoken language of musi-
clans for decades before that.
The instrument - first called
"clarionet" was invented in
Germany by Johann Christie
pher Denner.
Clarinet" is q diminutive
form of "clarine," a long obso-
lete trumpet like instrument
with a clear tone and high
register. The word is also re-
lated to clarion" which also
was a kind of trumpet produc-
ing sharp, sometimes shrill
tones.
In proper hands-say those
Of Benny Goodman or Reginald
Kell-the clarinet can produce
some nightly pleasant sounds.
Even in hands less skilled, it's
not likely to produce quite the
horrid tones that emanate from
its woodwind cousin, the oboe.
AS Danny Kaye sang, 1.-The oboe
is the woodwind nobody blows
good" So, work hard on your
lessons, Kathleen, and remind
your father that in time the
tone and the tune will come.
Furthermore, Kathleen, I'll
thank you much not to say
thank you muchly" any more.
"Muchly" simply doesn't exist
as a word. It-like "thusly"
and "suchly"-are forms mis-
takenly used by people who
think they add sophistication to
their speech. They do no such
thing. My advice is to forget
that you ever heard "muchly."
Question: My uncle used to
say that he would put the XII
bosh" on something he disap-
proved of-rneaning he would
bring it to a halt or eliminate
it entirely. Where did this ex-

Answer: There are two the
cries about the origin Of xxi

expression. related to the Mid

die High German word "keibe, "
meaning dead body" The
other is that it is a variant
form of the Gaelic "cie bais, -
meaning cap Of death" Take
your choice. I favor the latter.

On Her 10th Birthday

When you're 104, you take
things one by one.
Yesterday, Mrs. Mary An
derson, who celebrated her
l04th birthday at st. Joseph's
Home. 220 H street NE, re-
fused to open her presents.
Just having them was enough.
Today, she will open them.
Asked why, Mrs. Anderson
said, Because it's too, too
much"
Mrs. Anderson, the oldest
resident of the home, run by
the Little Sisters of the Poor,
was honored at a small party
given by the Sisters in the
third floor dining room.
She wore a neat blue dress
and a red rose corsage. She
didn't say much. and concen-
trated mostly on clutching her
presents and smiling for photo
graphers.
Inside the gaily wrapped
boxes were dresses, a sweater,
a shawl, some perfume and
some costume jewelry. A
three-deck cake stood on the
table before her.

Eisenhowers See
Jean Monnet on
Visit to Paris

PARIS, Aug. 4 (AP).-For-
mer President Eisenhower be-
gan today a six-day visit to the
French capital and spent the
afternoon with Jean Monnet,
often called THE Father of
United Europe"
Accompanied by his wife,
Mamie, and their two grand
children, Mr.. Eisenhower drove
to Mr.. Monnet'S matched
rooted home in the quiet coun-
tryside west of Paris. Mr.. Eli
Senhower and Mr.. Monnet
spent a quarter of an hour
after a two-huor lunch stroll
ing through the garden, talk
ing earnestly.
Mrs. Eisenhower showed no
effects of a mishap this morn
ing when she got off the train.
She apparently misjudged the
distnace from the steps to the
platform and twisted her right
shoulder. A panied expression
passed briefly over her face.
This afternoon she showed no
discomfort.

Ernest Bloch

Little by little, the late
Ernest Bloch is getting the
recognition he deserves. Most
of us know him by his volup-
tuous Schelomo and a cou-
pie Of other things. He was
a painstaking, productive
composer. If not an innova-
tor. he was not afraid to
experiment. Now Mercury
Records catalogs another of
his works the Sinfonia
Breve.
Though it is quite different
from Vaughan Williams, this
youthful piece reminds one
of the Britisher. For Bloch
wrote it at the age of 70, and
it sounds like something from
the pen of a talented young
composer, looking forward to
a successful career. 1t is filled
with fresh ideas, and is

Franklin Notes

Ben Franklin was a printer
before he was a public Of
ficial and in a day when con-
flict of interest rules were
unknown he saw no objec-
ton to advocating paper cur
rency as a politician, at
tempting to win approval for
it as an agent of the province,
and then printing it.
In partnership with David
Hall, Franklin printed cur
rency for Pennsylvania and
"the three lower counties on
the Delaware" from 1745 to
1865. Later issues were
printed by Hall and Sellers,
the name of the printing firm
after Franklin left it.
The note illustrated is one
issued by the Counties of
New Castle, Kent and Sussex,
later the State of Delaware,
dated June /, 1859. At this
time Franklin was an agent
Of the Province of Pennsyl-
vania in London. There he

The wife of a. school teacher
living near Thomas circle:
We'll. until I know the truth,

all cover up things and you
don't know who to believe.
Well never know the whole

A Bethesda salesman: I'm a
believer that easy money makes
people do things. Politicians try
to do things to benefit them
selves. That does not mean the
country's morals are low just
because some see money can
come easy and go for it."
From those who agreed with
Senator Mccarthy came these
comments:
An Interior official living In
Chevy Chase said: There have
always been some dirty closets
to clean out with each new ad-
ministration. The corruption is
everywhere, not just in Wash

Having difficulty getting
good color snapshots? If your
equipment is in good shape
then you can pretty well pin
your troubles down to either
incorrect exposure, poor light
ing, filter selection, use Of
the wrong type color film,
or a combination of two or
more of these mistakes.
In color filming, exposure
problems are less common
than in the past because of
the speed-up of the new color
emulsions. Nevertheless, to
obtain the truest rendering
of colors on film you must
be sure that your exposures
are correct.
Over or underexposure
tends to affect color shots
more than those made in
black-and-white due to i'm
proper color values resulting
from such mistakes. Fortu-
nately, some of the newest
color film has as much as
a full stop in latitude; you
have to be well off cacula-
ton to get a truly poor
transparency.
Meter Helpful
Likewise, built-in exposure
meters take a great deal of
the guesswork out of exposure
calculation. If you have a
camera without one of these
gadgets then you must rely
on the electric cell exposure
meter or the color exposure
guide that comes with the
film.
Extremes in lighting con-
ditions will make it neces-
sary that more or less ex-
posture be given than called
for, according to the circum-
stances.
Now as to subject lighting.
The brightness range of your
color film is limited and you
must work within these
limits. When extreme con-
trasts exist-with bright sun
light and dense, black
shadows in the scene-you
