Such is Rosh Hashanah, the period for spiritual im:entory, for reclaiming the peace of mind and soul, so absent these days from our lit·es. The sounding of the Shofar is the call to r-rayer, the call to all men of good v:tll tJ band together in the sen:ice of God and humanity.

Taking Stock With the election of Mrs. Elizabeth Harrington as Mayor of
Green belt almost a certainty, our city can look forward to inspired an~ c0urageous leaderr;hip. Her career in the local political arena is mar:<ed by alertness, honesty and integrity. Never has any candidate accumulated so many votes, an obvious sign of the r...'CogxJ.ition by Greenbelt citizens that her record of service in the past cou~ciJ is outstanding. As mayor, she will be able to extend her activit: es to our greater advantage ..
,Tl.e next two years will be crucial years in the life of our city. The council will fa'!e problems that will tax their patience and in .. telligenct>~ The resignation of ~rancis Lastner from the board of Green1:elt Cor..sumer Servjces so that he can devote his full effort~; as a member of the council is another indication of the awareness we all 3hare of future difficulties. All of us, devoted and committed to maintaining a ,decent home in an exemplary environment, realize that this will not come, to us through wishful thinking. We have a council dedicated to work for the best interests of Greenbelt in co~on bond with its residents. We have capable leadership. Bl.Jt it will take the active support, the brotherly encouragement, and the unite:! efforts of every' Tf;Sident to realize the "dream'' . . • our own home in Greenbelt.
Uo lke CJitor LONG LETTER
I shculd like to express my smcere t!1 1.nks to those friends and neighbors ,.,.ho were kind enough to' vote for me in 'the Council election. J also commend those who voted for the other candidates for their go6d citizenship in fulfilling their civic right and duty by expressing their preference through the ballet.
The fact that I lost out by one vote should, I hope, pro\· e the point that every single vote counts. oe course, I wasn'• too surprised to lose by one · vote as I was somewhat de ubtful of a certain Co-op typhoon s vote' from the very beginning.
Instea i .o'i paying the cost of a recount, I have purchased a tele.vision set at a greatly reduced. price which vrill entertajn me o~ Monda:> ever jngs. Then, too, the Council's los:; is the Co-op'<> gain, for now I uill have more time to devote to t!te many GCS management problem~. and maybe help reduce excessive~ overhearl and increase patronage returns for the customers.

Along Our Street with Aunt Penny
A Long Distance telepho_ne call from someone in the family who's away from home usually means a great deal. So I understand how excited Mrs. Sholl must have been to hear from her boy, Don, who's in the Army. She told me he called from San Francisco this morning and that he'd be
' home on furlough next month.
I was so h!!ppy for her I didn't stop to think that I had been using the telephone a lot during the morning, making arrangements for the coming church festival. If I'd been on the line when Don caUed, he wouldn't have gotten through because Mrs. Sholl and I share the same telephone party line.
It made me realize how important it is for party-line neighbors to use their telephone service ''sharingly." Next time I have to call a number of people, I'll certainly allow some time between calls so that others on the line have a chance to make and :receive calls too.
