GLAMOROUS MODELSAT FASHION SHOW

Sunny skies and the opportunityto view new spring wearing ap-parel modeled by attractive mem.bers of the club and a group ofpretty teen agers brought out acapacity audience to the Woman'sClub on Wednesday, when theYouth Service department present-ed a Fashion Show of Yowell-Drew-Ivey's smartest clothes. Not onlywere suits, frocks and sun togsstriking and colorful, but they wereclearly designed for comfort andpracticality as well. The show wasa decided success and a neat sumrealized for the Youth Center whichbenefited from the affair.

Mrs. Henry Chamberlain, com-mentator extraordinary, no ama-tur at her job, with a career whichincluded directing and presentingfashion shows for Filene's in Bos-ton, teaching Home Furnishingsarid Clothing Selection classes atVassar's summer school, etc., gavea lively and informative picture ofthe new fashion trends already ad-vanced by leading designers.Among the fashion changes empha-sized by the suits and gowns mod-eled in the show were the long torsoeffects, longer coats, longer skirts,|he pencil silhouette achieved '»y.either slim" and narrow skirts ormuch fullness through close-fittingpleats or fabrics that c l i n g .Wrapped and circular skirts weremuch in evidence. Definitely outwere knee lengths, exaggeratedshoulders, that skimpy look, and 'scraped-up hair-dos.

First to model were the 'teenagers, a group of school girls whosemain interest seemed to be beachand play clothes. Much applausegreeted the two girls who modeleda pair of Mermaid dresses by TinaLeser. Made of Bates cotton witha rainbow trout design, the bathingsuit worn by Patricia Haley andbeach dress by Carolyn Simonds,both cleverly flaunted flshtall backs.

Following the introductory Chor-ale played by Jesse Pedrick Baker,organist for the Thursday after-noon program, Cantata No. 61,"Come Redeemer of our Race,"opened the Festival with a chorusof majestic breadth and centralfugal movement, whose inspiringperformance was an augury forwhat was to come. Mr. LuciusMetz, tenor, sang the air "Come,Jesus, Thy Church awaits Thee"with satisfying ease and tone quali-ty. Mr. J. Alden Edkins, baritone,expressed dramatically Bach's pic-torial recitative of the Saviourstanding at the door and knocking,—the pizzicato chords being mostsuggestive. Miss Ruth Diehl, so-prano, sang with graceful nuancethe light-hearted aria "Open •wide,my heart".

"A Night in Old Vienna," whichwill be presented by the RollinsPlayers Saturday, March 8, at 8:15P.M. at Orlando Municipal Audi-torium, is an attempt to recapture,with outstanding young Americansingers, the spirit and flavor of amusical evening when Vienna. wasat its height. No other city hadgiven so much of musical beautyto the world, Haydn, Mozart, Schu-bert, Brahms, Mahler and Wolf re-ceived their greatest inspirationsthere; a lasting vogue was createdwhen the Strauss family reignedsupreme, pouring out their melo-dies in three-quarter time; and inour own day, Oscar Strauss, Lehar,Kalman Stolz, and Sieczynski havewritten eloquently of their affectionfor the gay city on the BeautifulDanube.

ADULT EDUCATION CANHELP SAYS DR. HOSIC

One of the most admirable traitsof the people of the United Statesis their capacity for self-criticisms.This could and should be mademore intelligent than it is. As ameans of accomplishing this, anation-wide program of lectures,forums, and reading and discus-sion groups under the general di-rection of the U. S. Office of Educa-tion but with local communityleadership should be organized.

The colleges and universitiesmight well quadruple their effortsin their field. The present offer-ings of the daily and weekly papers,the magazines, the broadcastingcompanies and the motion picturesare, educationally speaking, notonly inadequate, they are oftenrather miseducation than educationin the true sense.

This is Dr. Hosic's answer to thequestion, granted that the UnitedStates has serious limitations in therole of a great world power, whatcan be done about it? Speakingunder the auspices of Rollins Col-lege on Thursday afternoon, he de-clared that the American characteras a whole is relatively immature.Our preoccupation with money andamusement indicates a poor senseof values. It also reveals a deepfeeling of dissatisfaction that growsout of our failure to realize in prac-tice what-we profess In theory, Asa matter of fact most Americansappear to have no adequate theoryabout the good life at all. As a re-sult they become easy victims ofpropaganda; their law-making islargely controlled by special inter-ests; and the general welfare islost sight of. From the viewpointof other nations we are inclined tobe unstable, both politically andeconomically, without a well-thoughtout foreign policy, which rests onintelligent and responsible publicopinion. In short we have yet toprove ourselves. As ProfessorPerry of Harvard says in his OneWorld In The Making, "enlightenedselfishness" is a false doctrine. Theinternational relations of a great"democracy" must have a moralbasis. We can't serve God andMammon at the same time.

THE BACH FESTIVAL(Continued from Page 1

mellifluent adornment to the open-ing chorus, "Beautify Thyself, myspirit" of the second Cantata, No,180, The delightful aria, "Be glad,my heart" sung most charminglyby Mr. Metz, was one of Bach'shappiest inspirations and Mr. Wil-kins, flutist, played its spirited ob-ligate arpeggios in. masterly style.Miss Diehl showed fine musician-ship in the pleasing but difficultaria, "Sun of Life",

The Magnificat, sung for the firsttime here, is a work of major char-acter, its choruses and solos moreon the scale of the Passions thanthe Cantatas. Its five choruseswero given with assurance and spir-it especially the difficult "Fecit po-tontiam" with its sublime close"mente cordis sui", and the typic-al sweep of the choral parts in. the"Gloria".

One of the high spots of the Fes-tival was the aria "Quia respexit"beautifullly sung by Miss Diehlwith Miss Lois Wann's obligato onthe oboe d'amore, a performance ofartistic mastery long to be remem-bered. Miss Wann used to thegreatest advantage the poignantdepth and intensive timbre of thiswonderful instrument which wasfavored by Bach. The instrumentused by Miss Wann was especiallysecured from a collection of rareinstruments in New York for thisFestival.

The program Friday afternoonwas also opened with the playingof one of the majestic Chorales, thistime by Dr. Herman F. Siewert,organist of the Knowles MemorialChapel, whose musicianship andmost effective accompanimentswere again as in past Festivals amost vitalizing support to theChorus.

In the "Mass in B Minor" theFestival Chorus showed the pro-gress which it has made under thedirection of Dr. Honaas. It re-sponded with precision of attack tohis beat and showed excellent bal-ance despite the unusual predomin-ance of tenors and basses whoseenthusiasm at times carried thembeyond a just proportion for thesoprano and alto choirs. In thefugal surges of the "Kyrie" thischorus kept its flexibility; in thebrilliant apostrophies of the "Glor-ia" it had clarity as well as power,

—the delicate florid passages of thesopranos were sung with an ease ofexecution that a coloratura primadonna might envy. The "Qui tol-lis" whose separate entrances andprofound beauty are so impressivegave each of the parts opportunityto display the fine quality of itsvoices.

As usual the moving effects werereached in the rhapsodic "Et In-carnatus Est", the compassionate"Crucifixus", and the triumphant"Et resurrext", while the ecstaticproclamation of the "Sanctus" arid"Osanna" reached a high plane ofchoral achievement.

In the solo numbers Miss Sum-mers again gave outstanding inter-pretations of the three great ariasassigned to the contralto voice, buther singing of "Qui sedes" had thespecial benefit of a surpassing ob-ligato by Miss Wann on the oboed'amore, an obligato in which theinstrument was a most artisticcomplement to the voice, sharingwith it in the expressive deliveryof antiphonal phrases without atany time obscuring the voice orover-emphasizing the obligato part.A similar beauty of tonal nuancesuch as Miss Wann brought to MissSummers' aria also gave addition-al effectiveness to the accompani-ment of the "Et in Spiritum" sungby Mr. Edkins. Mr; Edkins' nobilityof style and the rich resonanttimbre of his basso-cantante weregratifying contributions to the Fes-tival.

In the "Benedictus" Mr. Metzdisplayed vocal resources of a highordev. His voice is virile and yetsympathetic, its high tones ofheroic quality in their clarity and .ring. Alphonse Carlo, concert mas-ter, gave Mr, Metz an effectiveviolin obligato.

In her duets with Miss Summersand. Mr. Metz, Miss Diehl sang withthe flexibility and dynamic sensewhich are so requisite in a Bachsinger; she was always at ease andthoroughly versed in the complexi-ties of his style. Mr. FrederickWilkins brought a beautiful fluteobligato on a par with those of MipsWann to the duet "Dominie Deus".

To Mr. Carlo is due credit for as-sembling and rehearsing the or-chestra of strings which includedMr. Siegmund Grosskopf, an ex-perienced violinist with Europeanbackground, who until recently wasconductor of his own symphony or-chestra in New Rochelle, N. Y.,and is now located in Winter Parkas a teacher. Mrs. Katherine Carloand Mrs, Jesse Pederick Baker atthe piano and Mr. Rudolph Fischerwere effective in the accompani-ments for the soloists.

The last program on Saturdaymorning was a notable expansionof the activities of the Bach So-ciety. By special arrangement allthe soloists and visiting instru-mentalists stayed over to assistthe Festival Chorus and orchestraIn giving a considerable portion ofthe B Minor Mass for an audienceof college students who had beenspecially invited as the guests ofthe Society.

STAID WINTERPARKIANSENJOY "BOOGIE-WOOGIE"

A Winter Park audience is gen-erally understood to be intellectual,critical, and conservative with ap-plause. Yet at the concert byMario Braggiotti and Jack ChalkinWednesday evening at the HighSchool Auditorium, Winter Park-ians roused themselves out of theirlethargy three times to show realenthusiasm and vociferous approvalof the three most "popular" num-bers on the program.

As the well-known duo-pianoteam progressed from its dignifiedBach Toccata and Fugue in Dminor, through "Tristan", "BorisGodunov", the Grieg Concerto,Stravinsky and Debussy, a care-fully chosen list of dependables,all played with distinction andaplomb, one wondered if thereweren't something coming thatwould sound like more than a "twopiano arrangement". The wildrhythms and frenzied speed of thedePalla "Ritual Fire Dance" seem-ed to start things sizzling, and theeager applause asked for'more"—;then, in the last scheduled piece"Jitterbug" by Braggiotti, the teamtore into an irresistible parody onsv/ing, with Boogiewoogie and theirrepressible chordings, improvisa-tions, and rhythms of uninhibitedyouth, the two artists pulling out allthe stops I This was what the au-dience had wanted! With dignitythrown aside, they tapped out thebeat with their feet and burst forthwith a most unWinter Parkian ova-tion! And with the Sousa versionof "Home Sweet Home" as an en-core making another hit, we beganto wonder whether our local au-diences, instead of being "chilly"(in more ways than one) have in-stead wanted programs with a littlemore pep!

It was a fine concert, and anothergood choice by the Board of Di-rectors of the Symphony Orchestra,in their series of benefit concerts.The next attraction will be Law-rence Tibbett on March 14th,—M. H.

"I'd like to tell you somethingabout the name 'Corrin.' In theseventeenth century this familysettled in Peel on the Isle of Man,At that time the church consecrat-ed land at sea level for the burialplace of the dead. One of my an-cestors lost his wife and littledaughter, and not wishing to burythem there, with his own handsbuilt a tower in which he laid them.He was excommunicated from thechurch for it and never allowed toenter. This tower was called 'Cor-rin Tower' and still stands on suchhigh ground that it is visible formany miles from the sea. Thechurch repealed the law later andsince then all the Corrins have beenburied in or under this tower.

"My grandfather, Henry Corrin,of the English Navy, fought in theWar of 1812, His ship was capturedon the high seas and brought tothis country. After the war he re-mained in America, married a NewEngland girl, and had six children—my father being the oldest andthe only one having children. Mybrother who died childless in 1919makes me the only remaining Cor-rin of that generation. But my onlychild, a son, who is with us today,carries the name as does his young-est son.

"The last Corrin resident of theisland fan unmarried woman) died•in 1936 and left the property (I'mquoting) 'for the habitation and ac-commodation of respectable wid-ows and spinsters.' She also en-dowed the tower,

"To Rollins students I cannot re-frain from repeating1 what I saidwhen ground was broken here—that I had to struggle to decidewhether to erect this building orrebuild a ruined village in somepart of devastated Europe. Rollinswon, because I felt that the futureof the world depends on our youngpeople, and in order to be preparedthey must be educated. So, if fromthis college go forth young menand women fitted mentally, physi-cally, morally, and spiritually, tocope with the great problemsawaiting them, the money is wellinvested. Otherwise I shall feel itis utterly wasted, and I lay thiscornerstone with that hope and be-lief in my heart."

MR. PELHAM REPORTSON HUNGERFORD LOSS

To the Editor:May I impose upon you for a brief

message to the many friends ofHungerford School in this com-munity?To the Friends of Hungerford.School:

As Chairman, of the Board ofTrustees, I feel sure you will wishto have an official report concern-ing the effect of the loss by fire ofthe old, wooden frame buildingknown as Calhoun Hall. This struc-ture, which was over forty yearsold, was in bad repair and had out-lived its usefulness. It had been aquestion to the Trustees whetherthe high cost of rehabilitating it.would not make it advisable to ap-ply the money to other purposes.Through sheer necessity, CalhounHall was being used temporarily forclasses, awaiting the completionof the new concrete class room"building. The fire was probablycaused by defective wiring, and itis another convincing argument forthe elimination of such hazards byreplacements of new, fireproof con-struction for the school.

The loss of the building, althoughregrettable, was by no means asserious a loss as was that of theschool equipment which was tem-porarily contained in Calhoun Hallpending its installation in the newbuilding. This equipment includeddesks, library, sewing machines,typewriters, tables and chairs-nothing was saved, but no one wasinjured and the morale of the fac-ulty and student body was a re-assuring indication of their abilityto carry on in spite of such a dis-tressing loss of. the tools they needfor education.

The building' was insured for FiveThousand Dollars, which was allthe insurance companies wouldwrite, and the contents for Six

Thousand Four Hundred Dollars,which was also all that could beobtained, although the replacementcost will be far in excess of thisamount. The new one-story, fire-proof building's nearing completionwill make replacement of the oldbuilding unnecessary, but to com-plete the present new building pro-gram will require Twenty ThousandDollars, and Ten Thousand Dollarsto carry on the School operationsi'or the next twelve months. Inaddition to these items, the replacement of the library is a mostimportant factor as we had one ofthe best High School libraries inthe country. We shall need en-cyclopedias, reference books, class-ical literature, good novels, fiction,and suitable reading for highschool grades. Sewing machines,tables, typewriters and chairs forour Domestic Science and Businessclasses are also needed.

Our present enrollment of onehundred seventy students, is thebest in the School's history, and thesame can be said of the loyal, con-secrated faculty in whose carethese young Negroes are placed.Your contributions may be direct-ed to Hungerford School, WinterPark, Florida.

NO EASY ANSWERS TOSURREALISTIC ART

The exhibition of "Recent Paint-ings by Andre Smith" at the Re-search Studios in Maitland is muchmore than an art show. If thosewho assert their abhorrence ofmodernism and especially of sur-realism were to expose themselvesto. them—with no one looking—they might find that there is some-thing impressively intriguing inthese strange pictures, Theymight even repeat the experienceof the uncompromising elderly vis-itor who berated Mr. Banca, Mr.Smith's assistant, for abusing herpatience by showing her such out-rageous pictures,—then later, aftersome detail had caught her atten-tion, reconsidered, and later offeredher apologies for being abusive her-self. She had unknowingly openedsome one of her conventional bar-riers to this kind of art and be-came susceptible to new concep-tions.

I found a young Rollins studentdeeply absorbed and thought hewould give me some helpful ideas,•—the younger people don't damnthings because they are strange.We looked at some of the surrealistpictures together and each com-mented according to his own light,—a good way to enjoy an art show,—and after trying to fathom themeaning of them I asked him "Isit art, or is it psychology cleverlyIllustrated?" He answered well tothe point: "These pictures are justas important art as the old con-ventional kind,— they tell the truthabout life." Yes, art need not beconfined to the decorative sphere;it has a deeper function.

When I first saw Andre Smith'ssurrealist work several years ago,the pictures each had one line by

way of suggestive explanation. Re-cently he had an inspiration to ex-pand these titles and now each ofthe pictures in the front hall hasthese explanatory verses. They re-veal the artist as a philosopher ofunusually keen. analytical insightswho, like Dante, has used physicalphenomena to make his concep-tions more realistic; but AndreSmith draws from the wider rangeof a more complex life than theold Florentine.

A forest of telephone poles over-whelm a man's privacy typifyingthe myriad clamors of modern liv-ing. A precarious pile of blocks,a house with no foundation, and aman and woman oblivious to theunbalanced foundation below themrealistically suggest the instabilityof society with its constant stimula-tion of new appetites and uncon-trolled desires.

This instability is an underlyingthought in several of the picturesand one of the descriptive versesis typical:How many misplaced atoms makea manThe vast conglomeration of ideasPiled skyward on a frail supportThe tottering monument of years—How many shambles of inventionMust we discard as we progressPaving the way with good inten-

tionsOut of our self-made, tangled mess.

There are less than fifty pictures.

Tartuffes so easily influence. Par-ticularly were the ecclesiasticalrepresentatives offended and it wastwo years before an adequate, un-censored presentation was againgiven. Meanwhile the author hadsoftened several c h a r a c t e r s ,changed the title momentarily to"The Impostor," and added an eulo-gy of Louis XIV which was put inthe mouth of the Exempt in thelast scene.

ROLLINS PLAYERSIN TAKTUFFE

Preliminary try-outs for the castof "TartufCe," Rollins Players' pro-duction which will be presentedMarch 25, two weeks later than theoriginal date set for its opening, inthe Annie Russell theatre, wereheld Wednesday night, February 26.

Dr. Charles Mendell, Englishprofessor, has adapted Jean Mo-liere's comedy for its Annie Russellpresentation without losing any ofthe spirited humor or sparkling dia-logue which characterized the playwhen it was premiered in Paris in1667.

A pointed thrust against hypo-crites in general and religious onesin particular, that first perform-ance of "Tartuffe" given beforeLouis XIV stirred up Paris andthe court against the play and theauthor. Whereupon Moliere was notonly hated by the Tartuffes or hypo-crites but by a great many Orgons,the weak persons whom the world's

Mr. Martin has replied to AlbertEinstein that his interest in thebook, (which many in Whiter Parkhave read), Is encouraging, thatthe author learned of the work ofPopper-Lynkeus soon after her ownwas published and judged that themain ideas came to her about thetime of his death.

The letter goes on to say "I amnot enough of an economist tojudge your idea from the economicstandpoint. It seems to me, how-ever, that the organization of such alarge part of consumption and dis-tribution would lead to a realiza-tion of the socialist program".

Mr. Martin has replied that suchan outcome would not have dismay-ed the author. Her readers inWinter Park know that the purposeof Mrs. Martin was to work out analternative to "a realization of thesocialist program"; but if her planproved successful on trial, shewould have welcomed further steps

TRANSYLVANIA, THE LANDBEYOND THE FOREST

By Louis C. Cornish,Hon. D. Pol. So.

Royal University of Hungary,Szeged

Dorrancc and CompanyA Review by Eugene R. ShippenProbably no American is better

qualified to write on Transylvaniathan the Winter Park author.Familiar with the land, versed inits history, warmly attached to itspeople, honored, with a degree bythe Royal University of Hungary,and the author or a previous book,"Religious Minorities in Transyl-vania," Dr. Cornish has made him-self an authority on the subject.

While the book under review hasabundant historical data, it is nota dispassionate history, but, rather,an advocate's brief, an ardent pleafor the just solution of a vexedEuropean problem. It is to bejudged, therefore, on the merits ofthe argument.

It was one of the tragedies of thefirst World War that, by the treatyof Trianon, Transylvania was givento Roumania, under whose corruptand brutal government the Magyarsin particular have suffered. On thebasis of first-hand knowledge theauthor cites some of the indignitiesand losses inflicted upon that super-ior, literate people. This reviewer,visiting Transylvania between thewars, would add his testimony wereit needed. Truly "a difference ofat least three hundred years in pro-gress separates the two culturesof Roumania and Hungary",

The region has become "a worlddanger spot, strategic and desper-ately important." Roumania is ob-

viously not competent to rule Tran-sylvania, nor can the racial groupsbe ethnically divided, the authorcontends.. At the same time he pro-tests against the proposed plan ofdeportation, "one of the blackestcrimes in all the long record ofhuman war."

What then? More than Transyl-vania is involved. Indeed, the wholeproblem of middle Europe. Reviv-ing a plan urged by Kossuth, aDanubian Federation is proposed.

This would unite for commonaims the peoples living in the Car-pathian Basin, embracing not onlyRoumanians and Magyars, butpossibly Czechs, Slovaks, Serbs,Bulgars, Croats and Slovenes. Alarge order! Though involving most•difficult adjustments, it is appar-ently the only solution endorsed byleading statesmen. Dr. Cornish isnot quixotic. Hodza, prime ministerof Czechoslovakia, declared "Afederalized Central Europe is one ofthe absolute necessities of a post-war peace". What Franklin said ofthe American colonies in 1776 istrue of the countries of CentralEurope, "We must all hang to-gether, or assuredly we shall allhang separately." "Federation",observes our author "is a mightyincoming tide in the affairs ofmen."

The Danubian Federation, inshort, is the major thesis of Dr.Cornish's book, awaiting an arousedpublic opinion to form the hesitat-ing great powers to accept and toimplement. Chaos is the only al-ternative. The book is thus a timelytreatise demanding the attention ofan intelligent public, especiallythose in authority. Its immediateimportance is 'attested by the

American Hungarian Federationwhich has ordered two thousandcopies in advance.

In urging a Danubian Federationit is noteworthy that the, author,despite his love for Transylvania,takes a realistic judicial view ofthe situation, "putting . aside allthought of her (Transylvania) be-coming a part of Hungary again",and echoes Kossuth's noble words,"We would not ask for freedom forourselves alone."

Three very readable chapters ofthe book are devoted to Kossuth,a champion of liberty comparableto Washington and Bolivar.

A brilliant chapter, "PropulsionA New Planet", demonstrates thatthis is indeed "one world", in whichTransylvania "has become our nextdoor neighbor",

The author's personal experiencesin Transylvania add interest to thebook. Long president of the Inter-national Association for LiberalChristianity and Religious Free-dom, Dr. Cornish, on one of hisvisits, was made honorary ministerof a Hungarian church, and again,dean of a district, giving him un-usual opportunities to. know thepeople.For students the book's, five ap-

pendices bring together valuablesource material, state papers bear-ing upon the Danubian problem,and Count Teleki's noteworthy ar-ticle on Transylvania, appearinghere for the first time in English.

In praising tfiis important book,the reviewer has inclined to under-statement, remembering what anold Harvard, president, JosiahQuincy, once said: "Superlativeswere made for the use of veryyoung persons."

terical flag-waver. She is a keenanalyst who can produce ttie ar-ticles which mvist embarrass Mr.Young, by giving facts and datesof real importance, which had beengloomily overlooked by the warcorrespondent. Miss Yong wantsus to know BOTH sides of the story,so that we can judge intelligentlyfor ourselves; she said "I do notwish for just GOOD reports fromthese correspondents, I want re-ports that are CORRECT and wellrounded". Her natural understand-ing; of the Chinese people and herknowledge of their background andphilosophy place her in an uniqueposition to answer the observationsof an Occidental.

From her inspiring and informa-tive description of the open-heartedreligious tolerance of the Chinese,and the stories of her own child-hood, in Hawaii, one found the rea-sons for Miss Yong's broadmindedand human approach to the prob-lem. Her mother, a follower ofboth Confucius and Buddha, en-couraged her children to go to theCongregational Sunday School, tothe Catholic Church with theirPortuguese friends, to the Shintotemple with their Japanese play-mates, to learn from the Mormons,and to respect wisdom and truthwherever they are found. As aChristian, Miss Yong exemplifiesthe intelligent application of truth,understanding and idealism. Sheis an inspiration to us all, and weare fortunate to have been able tohear a rebuttal from someone ofher experience and wisdom.

For the second half-of the pro-gram, Miss Yong gave three of herown monodramas, one of them , inthe musical sing-song of the Can-

THE COMMUNITY FUNDWELCOMES MORE HELP

The Winter Park CommunityFund Drive closed last week. Some-one suggested that the plight of thetwo women described in the Topicslast week might be "staged" tocoincide with the drive. Unfortu-nately, incidents like that of thetwo women who had nothing fortheir children to eat are too fre-quent to need staging. The fami-lies in this case were cared for asquickly as possible—they had tobe. But it meant borrowing moneyfrom the March budget to takecare of February's needs. Whatwill happen in March? Everymonth has its own urgent needs.The Welfare's financial standingwill be still more insecure, withthe failure of the drive to make itsgoal.

The Community Fund extends itswarmest thanks to the Topics forits cooperation during the drive,with thanks to all the press, and tostations WLOF and WDBO for thepublicity they gave. They thankall who supported the drive, espe-cially those who actually gavetwice in an effort to help meet thegoal, and they thank the businessconcerns, including those in Or-lando, who made helpful contribu-tions.

The Community Fund Drive isover. Let us just this once emulatethe notorius Three Tailors of Too-ley Street, to say, "We, The Peopleof Winter Park," are full of thanksand appreciation for the fine workthe corps of workers who managedthe drive did for us. These are thepeople who carry on the work ofthe agencies the year round. Theyare the people who are going tohave to get along somehow with-out that three thousand dollars thedrive fell short of.

Thanks and appreciation veryoften take material and practicalform and they are eloquent whenthey are thus expressed. Any timeis a good time to let your moneytalk to any of the agencies of theCommunity Fund. You know themall—the Boy Scouts, the Girl Scouts,the High School and the GrammarSchool PTA's, the White Day Nurs-ery and the Colored Day Nursery,the Health Center and the WelfareAssociation—all of them only toohappy to receive a show of interestof this sort.
