Street Cleaners Plan I Party In Rose Garden By JANE EADS WASHINGTON?The push-cart men who tidy up the streets of fashionable Georgetown are look ing forward to the annual garden party given for (Hem by Mrs. Frank West, one of the capital's civic minded hostesses. Mrs. West, who for 34 years has lived in Century House, which she says was built in 1800, gets a lot of satisfaction from the affair given in her form al box-bordered rose garden as a "boost for morale". "The men put on their clean shirts, and they couldn't be nicer," Mrs. West told me. "They really enjoy themselves too, and it gives them a feeling their work is real ly appreciated. My little George town clean-up committee raises a small fund to give each man a $2 gift, and I supply the coffee, doughnuts and ice cream." Mrs. West, widow of a California wine culturiat, came to Washing ton in 1918. She got interested in the clean-up project iust after the start of World War II and, like a lady Pied Piper, is credited with having driven the rats out of the exclusive neighborhood. She said that during the war she couldn't drive her ear and had to walk. "?That's T" saw the litter on the streets,'' she recalled. "You know, even nice people are some times careless about keeping their garbage pails covered." "I started right in to educate the litter bugs, getting my friends and neighbors to help," she went on, "We got together a children's council. We gave them soft drinks and a pep talk. They made posters and pitched right in. We made everybody litter conscious. We hammered away, got up a petition." The petition bore the signatures of such important Georgetown resi dents as the late Navy Secretary I James V. Forrestal; former Secre- 1 tary of State and Mrs. Dean Ache son, the late Senator and Mrs. Rob ert Taft of Ohio, and U.N. delegate Henry Cabot Lodge, then the Sen ator from Massachusetts. Mrs. West, whose daughter, Mrs. Hugh Cummlngs, Is the wife of the U. S. ambassador to Indonesia and whose son Frank is an asparagus rancher on California's delta land, says she gives the special parties for the push-cart men because the trash, ash and garbage men get tips at holiday time and nobody before took extra care of the push cart men. 1 In addition to many other civic ! ! and educational interests, Mrs. I Carl Mundy, Jr. Receives Honor At Cadet Review Carl E. Mundy, Jr. of Lake Jun aluska is one of the cadets of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute Army ROTC Regiment recognized for outstanding leadership and military activities. He received the Outstanding Cadet MS II Ribbon as the sopho more cadet in armor to attain the highest overall military science average in the winter quarter. Cadet Mundy also received the Auburn Rifle Drill Team Ribbon, the expert marksmanship badge, and the Armor Branch Rifle Team Ribbon. ^ Presentation of the awards was made last Thursday at a review of the Cadet Regiment. West is also active in Washington's Animal Rescue League and Tail Waggers Club. She is fond of all animals, especially her Scotty, "Clinker," whom she says is a "surly old lady". She is getting downright impatient, however, with the wild possums which romD in her rose garden and keep CJinker on edge at night. Many people, especially those over 45 years old, have 20/20 vision but need glasses for close work. Demonstrate OfIrngaii?n set May 28 Howard Elli. . .

While most chil dren can say about 300 words when they're two years old, there are some youngsters who speak little or not at aO until they are over two. This does not mean they art retarded, for fraqwently eoch children prove to hsvs superior mentality. Sign Language One youngster we know, the baby of the family, did not begin speaking until ha was almost three. But, than, ha dldnt have to. Be communicated by sign language and grunts, which hie older brother and sister trans lated for him.

Unduo Pressure It sometimes happens that a child begins speaking late because his parent* have put undue pres sure on him to talk. One mother wrote to say her husband had whipped their little girl In an effort to get her to repeat words he would apeak to her. This, of course, has a very bad effect on a child. How much better it la, to use patience In helping a child to speak. Instead of commands and constant urging, just assume the ehiM will begin speaking of hia own accord. In a pleasant way, repeat the names of actions and Objects The ehiM will eventually repeat them after you. Always show enthusiasm at hie efforts, a* matter how Jumbled they may bs It to a gocd idea to rend to the youngster who Is slow In talking. Converse with htm frequently, mobliig sure you apeak slowly and distinctly. (CwiM UM. IIM rmtmrm ?jwin*. 1m.) Biiinitg new Variable Pitch Dynaflow is three blocks ahead of the rest of the industry ?Motor Life Magazine | IT seems the experts are just as enthusiastic about Buick's new Dynaflow* as the happy owners of new Buicks with this wonder drive. Famed Motor Life, The Magazine of American Motoring, says it right from the shoulder in the quote we show above. This knowing magazine follows up that state ment with these words: "It sets a pattern for the future." And ends the report with a simple tribute: "So hats off to Buick for pioneering a feature of tomorrow's transmission." The reason the raves come hot and heavy for Variable Pitch Dynaflow is simple. This new kind of automatic transmission puts at your command what an airplane pilot has nt his ? propellers that can vary their pitch. I le uses one pitch for quick take-off and climb ?another pitch for economical cruising aloft. You do the same in a Buick just by pressure on the gas pedal. Press down in the normal way, and twenty propeller-like blades inside the Dynaflow unit smoothly angle one way to give you plenty miles per gallon. Press down all the way, and those propeller blades change their pitch?with absolute smoothness ? to give you instant getaway response, or a sudden safety-surge of accelerating power when you need it?and all split'second quick. tV? th^ hrin& far more flexibility I anp C.? drivin* range ?and a perform* I ' . ri'' un'ike anything you ever I rienced before in an earth-bound vehicle.
