Guback's story has the authority of a big corporation behind it and the earmarks of authenticity, and it gets even more authority m tiie Hickey background A Pennsylvanian and a graduate of William and Mary with an illustrative .career as an athlete there. Hickey is known as a thorough football man and certainly a strong hand with discipline and prepa rations. Reports out of Chapel Hill all indicate that Hickey’s present doss. Jim Tatum, tire maestro of college football save perhaps Okla homa's Bud Wilkerson. is more than pleased with his youngish backfield coach. By the same token. Hickey isn't fretting while ab sorbing the Tatum methods of big time recruiting, organization, .raining and coaching, Hickey, who never flinched when looking facts straight in the face wasn't of a mind to get the full coaching treatment only to art out on the fringes of the big time, with support from an admini stration that isn't sure which way it wants to go athletically. We suspect the W&M coach will be a high school man on the way up not a good college man, who with very good reason would look at it from present Williamsburg actions, as a step down.

Yet it’s the tragic truth. Last year alone there was a total of 177,000 forest fires throughout the ITS., t an average of nearly 500 per day! These fires were not small ones, either. They burned a total area of nearly 10 million acres—larger than the states of Massa chusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island combined! Just the cost of fighting them came to more than 70 million dollars. And that doesn’t count the loss of watershed, timber, recreational values and even lives. And the most tragic part of all is that 9 out of 10 of these fires were preventable because they were caused by just plain old human carelessness —carelessness with campfires, cigar ettes, brush and clearing fires, burning rubbish, etc. So please —won’t you do your part in helping to put an end to this needless waste? Be extra careful with fire, wherever you are. Observe local regulations when burning rubbish. Use your ash tray when motoring. Make sure your campfires are out — dead out! Help keep America green!

The rock of which the ground floor walls were built was quarried [from the surrounding hills, the brick was fired on a kiln on the farm. The huge rafters, thirty feet long and eight inches thick, were hewn with a broad-axe. and it took one tree to make each rafter. The twelve inch th'ck floor joists for the third floor extend the width of the mill; thus each joist meas ures over forty feet. The floor joists ifor the first two floors are made of heavier timber, composed of two sections, jointed at the center line. All the timber used was heart pine, which is not obtainable now. In the original construction, wood en pegs and hand-made nails were used. All the original timber is still in the mill. Dnuhl Dormers There are dormer windows at both third and fourth floor levels.

Va. ot Frederick J James, who owned it until 1813. when it was purchased by William Bondurant. It remained in the Bondurant family until 1847. when John Bondurant sold it to Francis B. Dean. He, in turn, sold it to W H Rhodes and Benjamin H. Powell Later the Abrams fanvly acquired it. and still later the Hughes family came into possession of it. Andrew Floyd Moon purchased the mill in 1888 and sold it to his son-in-law. Marion E. Blanton, in 1930. Mr. Blanton is the present owner. The original dam—a wooden struc ture, a portion of which still re mains—was some 300 yards up the creek from the present dam. which was built by A. F. Moon shortly after he acquired the mill. Early History In the early days of the mill's history, sacks of wheat were “toted'’ up the long flights of stairs by slave boys, ft was ground on stone burrs then, just as corn is ground into meal now. These old burrs are still in the mill. In those days, flour was packed into barrels by hand with a large wooden plunger, mounted on a lever. This antique apparatus can also be seen by visitors to the mill. Even the barrels were made in a . cooper shop on the place ! Packet boats were towed up the Kanawha canal from Richmond, and flat boats or barges made their way up Muddy Creek and loaded ffour at the mill. The sill of the door where the barges tied up to receive their cargo is almost worn through from barrels being dragged across - t. ■ The barges then went back down Muddy Creek and transferred their ! largo to the packet boats at Pem berton Front there it was taken to ; Richmond and points east, or to Lynchburg and points west. Customers taking wheat' to the. mill in earlier years usually took their flour home the same day. However, when H was necessary to leave their wheat, many of those who could not read or write, kept notched sticks in what was then known as the "counting room", and the notches indicated the number of bushels of grain left In the mill. Ghosts? Besides its claim to antiquity, Muddy Creek Mill also boasts a ghost. When Mr. Moon owned the mill, a bachelor uncle. Kitt Harlan, lived with him and his family and, for a time, slept in the "Counting room" at the mill. Ever since his death, a light can be seen at an upper window of the mill on certain nights. Always though, when the front door opens, the light goes out. The present owners have dubbed the ghost "Uncle Kit". Black snakes are excellent in the control of rodents, and one miller used to catch them and put them in the mill. For a long time, the mill's "pet" was a seven-foot black snake, but someone, ignorant of its value, killed it. Sycamore, willow and Pirch trees form a lovely background for this old mill, and behind it a craggy old blue trees, where tall oaks stand and laurel blooms in spring. Whether the trees wear leaves that are fresh and verdant as in Spring, or whether they are many-colored by the f.rst touches of frost, the j scene is truly beautiful. Even when the bare branches of the trees are laden with snow and ice. they seem to stand guard witli solemn splendor over the old mill that now ! seems almost as timeless as the hills and trees themselve.

The modern functional type of build ing provides excellent quarters for the con venience of staff as well as customers. The new building adds to the many changes which have been made in the business sec tion during the past f50 years, much of it within the last ten year period. Kstaldished in 1!)00, the First National Bank has contributed to the progress of this area. N. 1>. Davidson, its first presi din’. served "‘.G years. He was a community leader and several of the important indus trial and business enterprises begun by him contribute largely to the economy of the section today. J. E. Garland, his succes sor, carried forward with progressive poli cies during his 20 year term, prior to re tirement this year to become president emeritus. He is succeeded by his son, R. E. Garland, who with a devoted staff of offic ers and employees will carry foward the good work of the preceding administra tions. From its beginning Farmville has been blessed with sound, progressive financial institutions. Their progress augers well for the future of this area. Democracy On Trial rrilK lali t United Nation statistical vear bool,, published recently, showed that the min'-t’ommunist world produced an all time record quantity of goods in 1955, but that the Communist world produced a larger proportion of the . world total than it did in the preceding year. In other words, the Communist bloc eco nomy is growing at a faster pace than is the f'Vi world’s and it is estimated that the < v noii id countries have increased tin m- '.v id world production from six teen per reel in 1 to twenty-two and a half per cent a - ot' 1955. The. e fig;in are interesting, inasmuch a the\ indicate that the communist econo mic threat i not baloney, and they should si. rve as a stimulus to the free world, es pecially to 1 he leaders of the United Stal i 1 lild a strong and expanding U. S, economy. The great danger to the United States is higher and higher costs, and unreasona ble profit in some cases — could cause such a spiral in living costs that the econo my would suffer setback. In such a case, either a severe recession or depression, the Communist world would register signifi cant gains, comparatively, and a situation might result which could alter the world’s economic balance fundamentally. And while the Government has a respon sibility to do all it can to maintain a strong economy, so do leaders of the giant corpor ations and big businesses in this country. They are morally obligated to voluntarily utilize certain restraints, accept reasonable profits and create good working condi tions. Unions, too, are obligated to do their share in attempting to maintain a strong, free economy. In the final phase, the willingness of all Americans — including capital, labor and governmental leaders — to think of the best interest of their country may deter mine the long-term winner of the battle be tween Communism and Democracy. The South Lost a War April 2(> th is celehrnt. <1 as Confederate 1 * Memorial Pay in Mississippi, Alabama, Florida; and Georgia, In North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee, the observ ance is held on May 10. In various other Southern States, different days are used for the observance. Confederate Memorial Pay is. of course, an exclusively Southern observance. Decor ation Pay. which for many years was ob served in memory of the triumph of the Grand Arn m tin Republic, is celebrated on Max .”>0 out ■;.ie tie South. Today. Memorial Pay falls on May ‘>0 and is observed fairly generally through out the nation. It is a day to honor the memory of all thosi who participated in the war.- of our ... Nevertheless, Confederate Memorial !•; ;■ continues to he observed in the South. It should be rcira-mbum! that the South is till* only section of the United States which ever experienced, losing a war. Nat urally. the hardship- and trials of a re construction period are vivid memories in the South and it is nht to he forgotten that mail) assets and many businesses* were lost in the turbulence of reconstruction in the South'. This part of the country had to struggle back to life and to prosperity the hard way, without *ny aid program or without much aid from within, since its currency had become worthless upon the defeat of the Confederate armies. Human understanding dictates sympa thy for an honorable people, who fought an honorable struggle on points of princi ple. The recent notion, helped along by misleading movies and television, that the South fought a war for slavery, is an inac curate description.Abraham Lincoln, U. S. Grant, Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee, among the foremost leaders of the period, all agreed that the war was fought on the question of state sovereignty, of local in dependence and local self-government and state government. It is well that all Americans remember that this war, between the North and the South, was not a black and white affair, that there were as many good men on one side as the other, and as many conscien tious and sincere men on one side as the other. The question whether state sover eignty allowed a state the constitutional right to secede from the Union was settled by the war, and today Americans subscribe to the sentiment — “one flag, one country, one nation.” Keducing Tobacco Use A nia,i"r u'i nmt r."' i aura mi reported re cent !> that t igaivtte companies had made grcalcr pnu:!s in than in sev eral previous years and that one of the ma jor reasons tor this was the high profit margin being realized from filter ciga rettes. It i.- interesting to nott that the filter cigaret e often costs less to make than the non-filter cigarette, but apparently be cause the publi, i often not aware of this, filter cigarette have often sold at pre mium priei Filter cigarettes require less tf^' •• 1 ’ • ’n me : . nKj often are 11 " ii1 ’ ' Cr-grade tobacco, and some t!!”' ere with part.' of the tobacco [dant which iormerly was thrown awav. i hei el in e, we cannot see why the public should be paying a nickle more, or anv tliitig more, for filter-tip cigarettes. And, as far am nicotine content of filter-tip cig arette- is concerne ] then is very little dif ferrnce in the nicotine realized from filter tips and non-filter-tips. There is an appre ciable difference in the amount of tars. Ifowever, filter-tips are preferred by many smokers, and they have increased their share of the total cigarette market about fifteen-fold since 1952. The public evidently likes the harder tip and the ab sence of tobacco on the lips, which often occurs with a non-filter cigarette. lu.-t tor today I will adjust myself to what is. and try not to adjust everything to mv own desires. I will take, mv “luck” as it comes and make the best of it. Our observation is that those who keep ip with their own business have very little time to keep Up with someone else's bus iness. SPEAKS juj_i_:_l__ !_i Background Scripture: Genesis 1 1 Devotional Reading P:-. hr. 104:1-13 God Made Us Last Lesson for \pril 78. 1957 • HE readers of this column will * not all read Genesis in the same day. Some will take it pretty literally, others will read the early chapters in it as picture-storii s. parables in half poetic form. All readers, it is hoped, can agree on one point: that whether we take these stories literally or as para bies. the meaning is the same in any case We do not have to go grubbing in ob scure corners tor the meanings and messages of Gen esis. Tiie book was not written for people with compl i c a t e d l)r. Foreman minds. The meanings it conveys are on the surface, 01 so near it that the simplest readers can see them. The Earth Is Man's Home From the second story of crea tion which we' find in Genesis, in chapter 2, the story which concen trates on man himself, we can select some outstanding impres sions which the story makes, and no doubt was intended to make. First of all, this earth is the home of man That is its principal use Man came late to the planet; God made us last We did not make our appearance here till all was ready fur us. Some thinkers have thought of man as a sort of homeless crea ture, dropped into this earth al most by accident, fitting in no where. Quite the ei nt might be lonely and restless on some far galaxy, but not on this green earth Man. furthermore, being at the top of the ladder of creation, is master of this planet. This does not n can he is master of the universe It may be dis covered some day, as the scieufre fiction boys have already sug gested, that men may some day find themselves on another planet, hut as intruders, only to be thrown out or destroyed But on this earth man has a right to live, and to achieve mastery. In Genesis I iwhere the horizon is wider than in Gen. 2> man is told- Replenish the earth and a.ibduc it Man, in short, is to work together with God in bringing order and com pleteness to the planet which is his rightful home. Top of Creation Let us pursue that thought about the top of creation a little furthe: This story in Genesis presents man as made from dust and all other living things, both plants and beasts and birds, are likewise sprung from the dust by the power of God Man has a kind of kinship with all of life, and therefore, as Albert Schweitzer has said must have a reverence for life Man cannot give life to himself nor to any other creature; and should be very slow about taking life of any sort. Nevertheless it is much nearer the truth to say that the creation is made for man, than that man is made for the rest, of creation. Not that God intends everything in the world to be used. It is an interesting point that the trees of Eden are not all good for food; some of them are simply beautiful to see. "Tie beauty of the world, sometimes its useless beauty (like a sunset) is for man alone, just as its usefulness- -some times its unbeautiful usefulness — is appreciated best by man alone. Only man can heat the arctic and cool the tropics, only man can bring his foods from the ends of. the earth. On* Man Is No Man" The Greeks had a slog; ri One man Is no man, meaning 'hat we each need the help ami companion ship of others to live at all, as human beings. The story of the first man as told in Genesis illus trates this in a moving way. God sees that this man is incomplete, though he is set in the midst of great beauty and has work to oc cupy mind and hands. So God pro duces all the other animals: but man can only talk about them, not with them. So at last another hu man being is made. Before, there was only a man alone: now there is a human race. This is not sci ence, not intended to be: but it is a profound truth. Man is made for community. Without it, sinks to the brutes' level. In community a man becomes human. And yet if the only companionship man finds is human, he has still missed his destiny. For man was made for fellowship, above all. with God. Only as friend of God can man become what God intended him te> be on ontlines copvrlfbted b' the Division «f Christian Education Na tional Council of the Churches of Christ 1" lb* X h A Released bv Community Presi.

In fiery dance the planets whirl In realms of cosmic light, While sparkling stars in skies above Spread radiance infinite.

(Editor's Note The above Whitaker poem was in advertantly omitted from last Friday's edition, due to circumstances beyond our control We now publish it for your ultimate reading pleasure ) Guest Editor How To Save More Lives Once more, the American Can-, cer Society has launched the an nual April Crusade to raise $30. 000,000 for its national programs of research, education and service. Certainly in the light of the re markable progress being made against cancer, there is no ques tion that these programs deserve our utmost support. Today one-third of all cancer patients are being saved. This contrasts with a decade ago when roughly one cancer patient in every four could be saved. This gain is remarkable for two rea sons: first is that cancer was formerly a disease regarded as hopeless" by leading medical opinion: and second the saving of what amounts to additional 30, 000 lives annually has come with out benefit of any radically new methods of treatment. And still another 75,000 lives can be saved each year. Advances in cancer control to date are ihe fruits of public sup port for voluntary health agencies like the American Cancer Society. I': programs have been vital to this progress. The record .shows tha: the re search attack on cancer has be come the greatest, the costliest undertaking in medical history. The record shows that public knowledge of cancer is at an all time high, although it has a long way to go. The record shows increasing concern and recognition of can cer as a major health problem among America's physicians. Now is the tune to secure the future victory over cancer. Your whole-hearted support and cooperation with the 1957 Cancer Crusade of the American Cancer Society will help to assure that victory. Give now and give generously.

Exposition Year Celebration Charlotte County Tour May 1, 2, Will Highlight Historic Homes, Churches Charlotte County, “the home of Patrick Henry,” will feature old homes, churches and public build ings in its historic tour planned for May 1 and 2, in cooperation with the Jamestown Festival, It was at Charlotte Court House, on a court day in 179ft, that John Randolph and Patrick Henry had their famous debate on States Rights. The present Court House was built in 1823, from sketches by Thomas Jefferson. The public library, at Charlotte Court House, will serve as infor mation center for the tour and tickets may be obtained there or at any of the homes. The library build ing was once the residence of Judge Hunter Marshall and William Wirt Henry. Patrick Henry’s grandson often read law there. It's now con verted into a library through the munificence of Col. David K. E. Bruce, of “Staunton Hill". The old vegetable garden in the rear is now a formal garden, with two tea houses and later white marble busts of six Roman emporers were added to the site. Several old churches will be in cluded in the tour. Also, the site of Cub Creek built in 1730 and known to be the mother of Presbyterian churches in this area. A monument, has been erected there to the Cub Creek Settlement Among the older churchs are Rough Creek built in 1769. and Ash Camp Church, origi nally an Episcopal Church built be fore the Revolution. The other churches are the Village Presby terian and Mt. Tirzah. Tankersley Tavern is probably the oldest house in Charlotte County It was here that George Washington and his party had breakfast in June. 1791. It was from the portico of the Tavern in 1799 that John Ran dolph, of Roanoke, made his first public speech and Patrick Henry his last. Roanoke Plantation with Ran dolph's office will be open to visi tors. This was the old home of John Randolph, of Roanoke Mulberry Hill, old home of Judge Paul Carrington, and built in the 1700's, is still owned and occupied by his descendants. Judge Carring ton was the first Virginia Slate Supreme Court judge. Gravel Hill was built in 1849 and is now owned by Mrs. Rufus Colfax Phillips. Jr. Ridgeway was built in IRS.") and is part of the John Coles grant of 1740. Arcadia will also be open for tho tour. It was built in 1847 as a wed ding gift for Captain John G. Smith and his bride, Ada G. Henry Smith, granddaughter of Patrick Henry. Moldavia was once a girls' board ing school, built in 1852 by Rev David Comfort His school offered courses irr Hebrew and Latin as well as modern Greek, French and Ger man. It was at Woodfork. the large brick home three miles north of Charlotte Court House, that early in March, 1799, Patrick Henry spent the night before making his last public address, at Charlotte Court House. Ville View was built by CoL James Marshall in 1812. John Ran dolph, a close friend of the colonel, often spent the night there, with his pack of English hounds. Completing the list of homes and gardens open for the two day tour are: Kentwood with large setting and grounds, home of Mr and Mrs. J. Kent Early; Maple Roads, a large brick house with unusual architectural features, and the Old Brick Tavern recently restored by Mr. and Mrs. S D. Laughlin. This is the first tour conducted in Charlotte County in many years and affords all the citizens of the county and visitors a wonderful op portunity to see some of the old homes of the county that are private residences. A large map of the county and picutres of all the places will be in the library so anyone desiring any information or directions may ob tain them there.

Scenes like this are as commonplace as the moonbeams that play on the nursery wall. Little Gail doesn't know it . . . but Daddy and Mummy “look in” on her every night. But what of the hours when parents sleep? What of the busy playtime when Daddy’s at work, and Mummy's in the kitchen, and Gail is out walking her doll? Who will “look in” then? Centuries ago the Hebrew pilgrims went up to Jerusalem for the great feasts, lifting their eyes to the hills, singing the song of “The Divine Vigil.” He that keepeth thee will not slumber rang the voice of the leader. He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep answered the chorus. Even the loving care of parents is no substitute for the faithfulness of God.

Weekly .... FARM PRICE OUTLOOK 1 his is the wav prospects for Virginia farm prices looked to the Virginia Department of Agriculture on Friday. The De partment offers it to farmers with the warning that no one can predict prices and be right all the time. Hogs There probably won't be much change in ling prices in the next couple of weeks. Receipts art in the general down ward trend. Last week they were six per cent less than the week bo fop 17 per cent below the same week a year ago. In both 1955 and 1956, prices held fairly steady for around six weeks after Easter. Virginia auctions averaged five cents higher last week at $18.05 top weight; Richmond yards, 25 cents higher at $lf!-SI8.5(i. Mid-West mar kets were 25 cents higher at $18.25 to $18.75. Cattle It should pay to aim at moving any finished slaughter animals as soon as they're ready, with mid June as a sort of deadline. The slight slack in local supply will probably be felt through this period, the in-between time of fed cattle sales and off-grass sales. Results of the final state-graded Stocker sales last week compared to 1956. were: Richmond, good choice, and fancy teers, $23-$25.25; top $26: good, choice and fancy heifers, $18-$20; top, $21.50.

White Potatoes Chances of hitting the streak of : luck Virginia's white potato growers : had last year are pretty slim. Plant growth is already a week j or more late, and acreage on the Shore is around nine per cent above last year; the rest of the state : about the same as last year. Harvesting will probably be | stretched out over more time, and chances of meeting volume compe tition from other producing areas are increased. Strawberries Strawberries on the Shore were hurt by frost last week, almost surely enough to delay volume pick ing as much as two weeks. Favor able weather between now and then is the only hope for overcoming the damage Acreage is eleven per cent above last year. Tomatoes Some tomato fields were badly hurt by the frost; some hurt none at all. Replanting is under way in some places. F. E.

AND FARMER-LEADER FARMYILLE, VIRGINIA, FRIDAY, APRIL 26, 1957 First National Holds Formal Opening M W FIRST NATIONAL BANK BlILDING. formally delieated Thursday evening, April 25. It replaces two buildings which formerly stood on this corner. Of cream brick, trimmed in blue pearl Granox marble with overhanding marquee. New Quarters Last Word In Blending Colors, C omfort As the two glass doors swing open at the entrance corner of Main and Third streets the large public area of the new quarters of the First National Bank gives one the feeling of spacious warmth and pleasure. The spaciousness is achieved by the absence of col umns in the 50 x 52 foot area. The warmth is the resuL of blending colors — the walnut fur niture and fixtures, blending with tlie touches of brown in the rub ber tile floor, the cream sidewalls, and the gray acoustical tile ceil ing. The focal point is the beau tiful mural, an agricultural scene developed from three separate photographs made on local farms. i ue piate glass loaning uie tides of the building, on Main street and on Third street, give natural light, and an expansive ness not generally found in a bus iness building. The lighting ef fect is controlled by wall-to-eeil ing drapes of blending chocolate, woodrose, sand and champagne. Entering, to the left are six teller’s windows, assuring custom ers of speedy service. The note teller’s window is directly in front of the public area entrance, and to the right are the desks of the officers, with a private office in the rear for the executive vice president. At the rear of the public area is the bookkeeping department entirely .separated from the pub lic. jet conveniently located to be of service to the customers. Mod ern. accurate and speedy calculat ing and record making machines are in use throughout the book keeping department, which are operated by three bookkeepers, and a proof clerk. The floor of the public area, of brown and cream rubber tilt-, adds to the illusion of expans iveness Indirect lighting is used throughout the new quarters ac centuating ti.e masterful blend - Continued on page 0 ) First National Bank Openedjanuaryl0,1901 The First National Bank was opened for business January 10. 1901, with N.

Mural Features Local Herds, Leaf, Timber By HI I L WALL The large mural on the north in side wall of The First National Bank is not merely a decoration It is a i y m b o i of ? way of life--the agrarian way of life that has built Farmville and ' surrounding area. The mural ties in three local sC'-ii-'s. to giw !‘ e effect of a large picture window. The local scenes were chosen deliberately to repre sent li\ * to< • . ; 'hacco and fores try three of the fundamentals that have alwavs !«•«••; the main source of economy in this area. The process by which the three photographs art welded together is and interesting and intricate one. Th< work was dune by Elliott Ly man Fisher, of Ash< v He. N. C. Although cemplieat* d. a brief out line of hi; method is understand able. The fir.- t proe« ss was the taking of the local scenes Earl T Agee, a Farmville photographer, took these pictures in the usual manner. Of course the n-natives had to be pin-point sharp. These negatives were sent to Fisher in North Carolina. He se lected the three scenes that blended best. Enlargements were made of the three scene and these were pasted together, forming a minia ture or original of the mural. This scene wa - then copied by a copying camera with an unusually large negative. This negative was then used to make the enlarged print that forms the mural. ( \KV M SMITH The larpe print war, then cut into strips and brought to Farmville where it was mounted like wall paper" J41 mi'!!!:' ■ tin. I nal scene caie was taken to make the pieces match and lit perfectly. The tobacco scene was taken on the farm of Cary M Smith in Cum brriaml coupL tie livestock scene on the Derry fmm just across the Appom itti;x r.ve from Farmville and the fore '. s-oem* came from the favm of M’■ V.

Mr Caiy Smith was born near Cumberland Court House 89 years ago. He served as treasurer of Cumberland county for 36 years be fore retiring He worked for Mr. Burton for six years on the Hudson farm just west of Farmville before he moved to the farm he now owns. ' He rented that farm for several years, and then bought it with the! money he had saved. Since that. time he has brought his farm to its : present prosperous state, and it is: generally referred to as one of the I ‘best farms in this area.” Mr. Smith does not actively farm | now He has turned the reins over to his son C. M Smith. Jr. and; grandson. John Marshall Smith. The farm contains 567 acres and j about 300 acres are cleared. Mr. j Smith explained that the farm was j mostly woods when he bought it and j he has cleared the land that now j supports the tobacco, corn, and; other crops that flourish on his | farm. Mercy Farm The livestock scene is symbolic not only of beef, but of dairying and all livestock in general The picture was taken on the beef farm of H W Derey. who is super in tendon t of public works for the town of Farmville. He bought, the farm in 1948 from C J. Cox. Farm- ' ville automotive dealer and cattle man. Thr farm was formerly called the "Jackson Mill property” or the Swift farm" It contains some 400 acres and has 325 acres of cleared land Mr. Derey and his son.

Ralph Dillin gei. was headed this way There was momentary consternation and extra precautions, but the scare : o n ird quickly when the famous thug failed to show up. Perhaps the greatest change in banking from the days of her start has been in bank resources Once, demand deposits constituted the bulk of business. Now. traditional American husbandry has made sav ings deposits the No. 1 account. And the confidence reflected ini the growth of savings by so many who put complete reliance in then bank is pretty much an extension of the integrity, the efficiency, of faithful banking people like Mrs Luriine Wootton.

S. Bruce Spencer Sh ads Trust Department The Trust Department of the First Nat ional Bank is a department en tirely separate and distinct from the regular Commercial Depart ment It must make its reports to and be examined periodically by ..: ■ wml supervising authorities. The • ■ i : dm t'-ator. executor, trustee, or com mittee. In many instances individuals or groups of individuals may not find, time to handle extensive real estate; rentals, maintain proper insurance.; end pay the numerous taxes and; monthly bills. In such cases th>*. Trust Department may be called on : to render these services and dis tribute the income. This type of an account is called an agency account ; Often, the bank, through its Trust j Department acts as administrator i of a deceased person's estate. It is: the duty of the administrator to see j that the personal estate is di.s | tributed according to law. As executor, the bank’s duty is to j s-*e that the wishes of the deceased i person are carried out in accor j dance with the will There are many reasons why it is desirable to have a bank named as executor j of one’s w'i.11 rather than an indi vidual. An individual may die leav ing complicated problems or a wife named executrix may be subjected to undue hardships. The past ex perience of the bank in such matters is most valuable. Whenever a person is declared in competent. relatives may desire the bank to handle the affairs. In such cases the bank acts as committee or trustee and must give annual accountings to the commissioner of accounts who must approve them in the same manner as with an ad ministrator’s or executor's account. The Trust Department of tne First National Bank is under the supervision of S. Bruce Spencer. After graduating from Hampden Sydney College with a B A Degree in 1937. Mr. Spencer v; employed by the First National Hr where he served until Apiul, 1942 when he entered the United States Naval Reserve. He served oversea* with the amphibian fores in the Euro pean Theatre of Operation until October 1945 when he was re leased from active duty as lieuten ant. Returning to the bank in No vember. 1945, Mr. Spencer was made ass’stant cashier in 1946 He became assistant cashier and assis tant trust officer in June, 1955. In January. I95f>. Mr Spencer asumed his present position of cashier and trust officer. Permanent Record Of Checks Made By Microfilming There is more to banking than meets the eye. On first thought one' considers that all it is to banking is writing checks, cashing checks and put ting money on deposit. This as just scratching the surface Handling checks is one of the big jobs of the bank By making their checking services inexpen sive and convenient banks have speeded up the wheels of business and made possible a host of cred it plans, mail order houses, and have reduced the amount of cash carried in public. To protect the bank and the check writer and everyone involv ed in the “checking” process, the bank “takes a picture” of every check that it takes in. The picture process is called microfilming” A specially de signed machine takes a miniature picture of each check in the bank and this microfilm picture is filed in case it is needed. If a question arises about a OFFICES—S. Bruce Spencer, cashier and trust officer, left, and John II. Varner, assistant cashier and manager of the Farm Service Department, right, shown in the spacious offices at the ri?ht of the entrance to the bank. check, the bank can refer to its microfilm and prove that the check was written, and any in formation about the check.* The machine films both sides of the check, so that not only the amount date and original signa ture can be seen, but a record ts also made of the endorsement; that appear on the reverse side of the check. Most of the operations on the machine are completely automatic. This mach ne is located in the proof and transit department of The First National Bank Also located in this department is a National accounting machine on which the general ledger is posted and the trust department bookkeeping is done on this ma chine The machine is also used for typing note notices, and post ing notes to the liability ledger These two ops-rat.an.s are done si multaneously Mural Features •Continued on page 2» Lake road. Interest in reforestation has been on the increase m the past several yeats The tree farm movement be gan in 1940, and the Governor of Virginia is at present backing a tree planting program that, is designed to get 25 million seedlings planted in Virginia over a five year period. Last year 24 landowners in P mce Edward county planted 304.000 seed lings. There are several reasons for the upsurge in tree planting. Piivate landowners have learned that tree growing is profitable Machines have reduced the cost of p!a .ting r and make it much easier than the old back-breaking hand methods. And the availability of low-cost or free seedlings from industry and ' government nurseries makes tree planting attractive from a financial standpoint. Congratulations to FIRST NATIONAL BANK. We are pleased to have had the privilege of installing the executive and general office furniture for their new and redecoroted surroundings.
