Trains be gan to cease being more romantic than airplanes when they gave up their whistles for Diesel horns. No boy raised in the Midwest can eiVen forget ’waking at night and hear ing b the mournful adventurous whistle of a train racing across the darkened plains. It left a crying echo in every listening heart. The whistle has played quite a role in mankind’s long story. • It was one of the first signal calls for! help. For centuries it was a favor-1 ite form' of greeting between lov- ■ ers, a sweet summons to the be loved within that somebody she | yearned for was outside her win dow and waiting. It was only in later tirrtes it de generated into the street corner wolf’s insolent form of saying, "Hello, you kid.” ( The whistle has been used by sol- diers to warn -each- ether antra's it • p.o plans ■'dertake any this tune; he hopes other U.

You can't separate a boy from his whistle. It is when he first learns to whistle that he knows for sure he will grow up and be a man. The whistle from the beginning of. time has been a companion to the spirit of lonely men. When you ( are in trouble all alone, whistling gives you the courage you need. It. standse for the voice of the absent! friend who isn't there. Eisenhower To Restore Easter Egg Lawn Rolling Washington, March T. — Easter eggs will roll again on the White House lawn—after a lapse of 12 years. • \ v A White House announcement today said President and Mrs. Eisenhower have decided to re store the traditional egg-rolling frolic for children up to 12 years of age. Adults, will* be admitted but must have kids with them. The grounds will be open for the dyed-egg “battle” on the South lawn for nine hours—from 9 a. m. to 6 p m.—on Easter Monday, Ap ril 6. The last egg party at the White House was April 14, 1941, when the Franklin D. Roosvelets were there. The war brought a halt to the festivities. Rolling started out as a gentle pastime of letting eggs wobble down a green slope in the capitol’s the zoo was a favorite spot and still is. But modem youngsters thought rolling too tame. Rolling led to tossing, followed b£ battling in snowball style. Egg-rolling, like poker, lends itself to a variety of rules. You can nudge them down a slope and admire their erratic progress. Vou can give prizes for the egg that rolls the farthest. Or roll them through hoops and around and un der things. The custom has been around for longer than anyone seems to know. It used to be practiced on the east slope of the Capitol but was ban- ned there when, according to a re port of the times, “great damage was done to the turf.” About 1878 when Rutherforcf B. Hayes was president, Mrs. Hayes offered the use of the White House grounds and precedent was set. White House dockers counted a record 58,258 children and adults at the last'picnic in 1941.
