Disapproval of the adoption of the “platoon system” in the public schools of the District was expressed by both school officials and private citizens at a meeting of the Chevy Chase Citi- zens' Association in the . V. Brown School last night. Although the as- sociation refused officially to go on record regarding the system, imme- diately after adjournment a stand- ing vote was taken which showed that only two persons in the whale assemblage were in favor of its adop- tion. It was pointed out the the system held an especial interest to the citi- zens of Chevy Chase, as there had been much talk of installing it in the V. Brown hool. ephen Kramer, principal of Central High School, when called upon to express his views regarding the system, said that such a system is now in use in the Central High School, and it is not satisfactory. In enlarging upon this statement he told how the teachers at Central have to teach a part of the students while others are out at lunch. “We begin classes in the morning with about 2,000 pupils,” he said, “and You want More Heat for Less Money, don’t you? Then install « a Honeywell Temperature Reg- ulator on your heating system.

C. “CANADA " DRY” HE reason for the wonderful flavor of “Can- ada Dry” can be told in ten short words— “It is real gin- ger ale—made from real Ja- maica ginger.” Because it is real ginger ale, “Canada Dry” blends delight- fully with other beverages—it will not bite the tongue or burn the lips—it has none of that flat, syrupy, cloyingly sweet taste—it leaves no “brassy” after-taste’ or recurring “back kick,” as some people call it— it is friendly to the stomach! Make it a point to try “Can- ada Dry.” It is unquestionably the finest ginger ale ever sold in this country—so different from the ordinary ginger ale that. it might almost be called by another name. “Canada .Dry” was formerly served only in the most exclu- sive clubs, but is now sold by grocers, druggists, delicates- sens and confectionery shops throughout the city.
