The latest recommendation for a grassland system of farming call for the total open land to beapportioned as follows: Orchard graas-Ladino clover pasture 30 per cent; Kentucky (or alto) 31 Fescue-Lad ino clover 15 per cent; grass ensilage and hay mixture .15 per cent; and Kentucky Blue grass-White Dutch clover 10 per cent. This program once established also affords a maximum of gracing and a minimum of winter feeding as well as labor costs.

Legion Auxiliary dedicated the memorial placque in the Court House on Monday, November 12, honoring the men and women of the county who have served in defense of their country. ***«• w. xi. Xijme presiaea ana the invocation was pronounced by Rev. M. E. Sliger. The Rappahan-* nock High School glee club, directed by Miss Charlotte Golladay, sang ‘-‘America” The speaker, Rev. A. Paul Thompson, gave this series of remarks: “This plabque becomes for us a symbolic object. It symbolizes our gratitude—beyond our ability to express—to and for those people who served our nation in the World Wars. It symbolizes our American way of life, our*’ freedom and our liberties. It symbolises more: it symbolises our desire to protect these freedoms and liberties from our enemies within and without. To this cause are we all concerned and dedicated. “In our seal for this cause, we must not forget something off great importance—God. “We are not so concerned about America’s ‘know-how’ to protect these with her industry, scientific advancement, and knowledge, but in thinking about this source of strength, we may forget our religious heritage. * prophet, who lived about 900 yean before Christ, left us a record which speaks to us about this matter. Through a simple story of a linen garment, the prophet teaches that a nation aipareted from God is a losing nation. » He also lists three ways this may happen: refusing to hear God’s word, walking after the imagination of their own hearts, and serving other gods. These * three statements were a warning to the Houses of Israel and Judah and th^y would not hear. “In our zeal to protect, defend our American way of life, let us not forget God.” The Star Spangled Banner was sung and the services were closed with the benediction by Dr. W. G. ii Pendleton. ---- Bradford’s Toyland Opens Monday Toyland at Bradford’s Store in Flint Hill will be open Monday. M. R.

Rappahannock Mews Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia Dial Washington 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia. Subscription: .... $2.00 a year Stars and Bars Is Not Confederate Battle flag The Richmond Times-Dispatch is going to catch it* The ladies of the U.D.C. aije going to jump down some throats! A story appeared the other day (maybe Sunday) about the Air Force boya not being allowed to use the Confederate flag as an insignia. A picture showed the bbya of the Air Force with a Confederate Battle Flag and the caption under the picture called the flag the “Stars and Bars." Now, according to the teaching in Virginia, the civil war—whoa! The War Between the States—was called to a halt in 1865, but there are times when one is inclined! to think that Appomattox was merely the date for cessation of hostilities of the gun-powder variety. The war’s still on. Flag No. 1 of the Confederacy had the crossed field in the upper left corner, and three wide stripe*, red, white, red. This was the Stars and Bars. Flag No. '2 was the Battle Flag, as seen today accompanying the Cavaliers of University of Virginia, especially .when they play in Pennsylvania. Flag No. 3 had the crossed field in upper left comer, but the rest of the flag was pure white- This - was the Stainless Banner, or tho Jackson Banner. Flag No. 4 was like No. 3 ex-t cept it had a wide red band down the outside of the white, running up and down rather than across, as the wide red and white of flag No. 1. Quoting from a hand-painted, framed picture of the four flags of the Lost Cause, the following information is available: “The first National Flag adopted by the Confederate States of America was the Stars and Ban. It was raised over the Capitol Building in Montgomery, Ala., att sunrise March 4, 1861, while the Provisional Congress was holding ii its first session, being unfurled Pitts Park THEATRE Frumt Royal, Virginia THTJRS. - FKl., NOV. 15 - 16 JAMBS STEWART JOSEPHINE HULL ** HARVEY” SATURDAY, NOV. 17 •GINGER ROGERS JACK CARSON “The Groom Wore Spurs” SUN. - MON., NOV. 18 - 18 MARIA LANZA ANN BLYTHE \ “The Great Caruso” (Color by Technicolor) TUES. - WED., NOV. 26 - 21 JOELMcCREA 1 (dor Technicolor ) 9/ 1 E*>XiOU>y§lpl9« OX nfKufliv John Tyler of Virginia. TWa flag is the one need by the United Daughter* of the Confederacy as their emblem. ■ “At the battle of Manama*, July 21, 18fll, General Beauregard was anxiously hoping for reinforce* ments while holding his ground against great odds. In the dust and heat the 'Stars and Bars could hardly be distinguished from the Stars and Stripes. This must not happen again. A new design was adopted In September of 18161. This Battle Flag followed the Cause to the end. It is the insignia of the United Confederate Veterans. “The likeness of the Stars and Bars to the Stars and Stripes often caused confusion, therefore the Confedearte Congress on May 1, 1863, adopted this (No. 3) design for a new national flag. The first of this pattern was sent by President Davis to enfold the body, of Stonewall Jackson and because of this it was sometimes called the Jkckaon flag. It was also called the Stainless Banner. This is now the flag used by the Juniors. “It was found that the third flag, when hanging limp, could be mistaken for a flag of truce, so on March 4, 1865, Congress again changed the design of the National flag. 'It was the last flag of the Confederacy. In a few days) Congress adjourned and the flag was found among the retards. It is now used by the Sons of Confederate Veterans as their •insignia.” The Richmond Times-Dispatch' mis-called the flags, and it is to be hoped that they keep a record of how many Daughters of the Confederacy call them down for their error. Sperryville Citizen Speaks Once upon a time, as can be remembered, by some of our good citizens, who Were born and bred in Sperryville, there were no ambulances, baths, or electric lights. On Christmas morning many arose to find their own little cajfitols gone, or a horse-back rider, should he pass through after dark, get rocked. Still in our dark Village there were no casualties. At this date our little village has changed, should Mr. Sperry return he wouldn't know it, but we still have with us our boys. They in the future can be farmers, doctors, lawyers, or even preachers, foi they are no worn than those that grow op in and around SperryriUo in the 1800’s. Since then there have been lots of foreigners to move in, who .were not here in the stage-coach days. No one was killed then, no one is dying now for lack of ambulance*. In this small town there are quite a few private ears that are used frequently for ambulance service. Only one was reported with flat times on Hallowe’en night. We should realise that our children are not as old as we, and still go in for the Hal* lowe’en pranks, which today wo ■think are silly, and do a mean and seliish trick by calling the law. We should remember Hallowe’en comes but once a year, the pranks played are only through fun. There isn’t any use always complaining, and noticing every little thing our town boys do, but be pals with them. Kindness can go much farther than calling the Sheriff, or State Trooper* Even though Spexryville has the reputation of always having a feud going either in the church, school, or the next-door neighbor, it is no worse now than in years past. All of us grown-ups could spend more time with our boys instead of our own personal interests, such as money dinner parties, etc. • Street lights have been shot out in other neighboring towns, and even U.S. Government mail boxes, mail included, carried several blocks* but this wasn’t written up as being a disgrace, and sent out to all parts of the world as our Rappahanocnk Nows is today. The.writer has been living in ■Sperryville for the past thirtytwo years, and never has there been born, passed through, or living in our midst an angel. The angels are yet to come. We all have our faults. Sperryville has roads that lead both east and west, north and south, so if we don’t Kke the little village, we can just get out Ere we leave, let’s take a dheck to see if there isn’t a little hit of good in the worst of us, and a little bit of bad in the best of us.—(Signed) Perle Coffey.

Aladdin, the boy who rubbed the magic lamp, had nothing on you. You too can stretch out a finger or even a toe — and command a genie that controls tremendous stores of energy, the horsepower that drives your family automo Now you can get INTERWOVEN Regimental Stripes in perfectly matched socks and ties. •Front Royal, Va. bile. Maybe you never thought about it just that way. But you are transported, at your slightest whim, to shopping centers, stores in distant cities, schools, supermarkets, offices and theatres of your own area — to all the conveniences of! the modern world. Your "magic lamp is the tiny, giant-powered self-starter in« vented forty years ago by a young genie (or genius, if you like) named Charles F. Kettering. Before it existed as standard equipment on new cars, starting was a chore beyond the strength of most women — a chore dangerous to most men, if they were not extremely careful. Small wonder that the scientist of the nation have several times recently honored Kettering for this and many other contributions to the science of everyday living, through the automobile. Yet most motorists take that “Magic lamp” so much for granted that they give it no help at all — and it sometimes needs help. This is the time of year when that small miracle begins to need help in the form of precautions — those precautions that mean easier winter driving. One automobile engineer puts it this way: “The self-starter took the drugery out of driving and put the automobile into daily life. But you’ve got to give that starter a chance to work by making it possible for your car to start readily.” He means, of course, that the little giant (won’t turn over a frozen motor, nor work with a dead battery, for instance. There are many such winter precautions the auto experts, your automible dealer’s service men, would like to remind you of to help you avoid needless expense and inconvenience this winter. Chances afe that your new car dealer is a number of the National Automobile Dealers Association and helped put together a list of simple precautions you can take now, to be ready for the worst winter. Here they are: 1. Have your battery checked for peak performance in cold weather. 2. Have your cooling system checked and treated with rust-inhibitor, to be sure it’s in good shape before adding the winter anti-freeze. This will prevent cracked hoses and clogged radia GET TH E j “UNCLE FRED” LISTENING HABIT! 3 DAILY RECORD SHOWS: 7:30 to 8 in the morning 9:15 to 10:15 in the morning 12:15 to 12:45 Farm Family Hour 1450 ON YOUR RADIO DIAL WFTR-FRONT ROYAL ton, too.

Have your ignition system f? checked, including spark pings, wiring condenser and distributor points. This can take a great strain off pour self-starter and help it work better and longer. 7.

Calf hood Vaccination Increasingly Popular The practice of calfhood yaccination to stamp out Bang’s disease (brucellosis) is still gaining in popularity with Virginia farmersR. G. Connelly, dairy husbandman at V.P.I., says some 2,542 calves were vaccinated in August, the last month for which figures' are available; and that the money set aside by the state to pay for1 the.program is being used up rapidly. The vaccination program ia sponsored by the state division of animal industry. Connelly says the ideal way to control Bang’s disease is by test and slaughter combined with calf vaccination. The disease costs Virginia’s dairymen an enormous amount of money every year, he, says. The loss of calves through abortions immediately throws thq breeding and herd improvement * program Into 9 tailstoin. No dairyman keeps infected cows v$ry long without trouble from sterility and shy-breeding. The disease slows down, and eventually will stall milk production. In addition to that, several people are stricken annually with undulant fever, caused by the “brucella abortus” organism 'which causes the disease.

listed »t Heathsville, has tried to claim the place rightfully belonging to Rappahannock News. The News has the distinction (if you can call it that) of being the paper published in the community in the state. •Here is the editorial comment from the Echo, under the title of Worthumbriacs:” jwspaper __ ™_ Book, published by the Virginia Press Association, reveals that, except for the Rappahannock News, which is pub-f lished in Washington, Va. (the original Washington, it claims) no other newspaper in the state originates in a community as small as Heathsville. Washington, Va., claims a population figure (245) that is five lower than Heathsville, although we'd have guessed that it had at least two hundred more. The Virginia Washington, like; Heathsville, is one of the older settlements but the News did not; get going until 1949. The Echo first saw the light of day in 1902 and we doubt that its first publisher, Mr. Warren Rowe, ever had any idea that his little paper (4 pages—about 6x8 inches) would sst porsted as a town and got a good deal of publicity a year or so ago When it elected a woman mayor and an all-woman town council. Oddly enough, the News has a woman editor but lest you think that the Virginia Washington moves smoothly on this tide of femininity, we should mention that the female editor views the female council, and especially the female mayor, as through a glass, darkly. This is all toU»e good and her swipes at the pretensions of some of the female officials are REAL ESTATE I have W. A. MILLER WASHINGTON, VA. CALL day, 2851; Nights or Sundays, 2161. HimiuiittaiiitimtiiicMnitmiiiat FUSSELLS ICE CREAM I FUSSELL-YOUNG ICE CREAM COMPANY Celpeper, Virginia cloa« the subject) True, ps the Echo editor states, the News has a feminine editor, but that feminine editor disagrees with the gentleman's accusation that she “view* the female council and especially the female mayor as through a glass, darkly.'* The feminine editor thinks the feminine mayor is a charming lit* tie lady, photogenic, and definitely conscientious about her job. On numerous occasions the feminine editor has seen the feminine mayor escorting visitors about the town. It has been quite obvious on these occasions that the feminine mayor has been hospitable aqd gracious, and has been a credit to the town. * The feminine editor has stated that she thought there was too much cheap publicity connected with the feminine government, but there is agreement on all sides With this thought—and the ladies, themselves, have voiced this opinion. The cheap publicity came their way. The feminine editor refuaeq to believe that the ladies of the council or the lady mayor sought this cheap publicity. The county newspaper has a number of time poked fun at the ladiea* government—as have most of the citisens of the county, at one time or another—but that does not entail complete disapproval. Any public figure knows that sooner or later he will ba placed in a cartoon in one of the big city papers, and this does not mean disapproval, it is one of the prices to he paid for being in the public eye. The local ladies are bound to have known when they went into a public office that they were going to have a trouble or two. Now, if they had just got into aome big office, they could have had a crowd hanging around, bowing and scraping, in hopes of some good-paying job with no work attached, but the public offices in a small county seat can't have that gldry. All the ladies can hope for is plenty of work and plenty of criticism, and no adoring crowd awaiting the conferring of favors. They ain't in the mink-coat deep-freeze set; they are just in a small town. It Un’t Funny! By Dr. Alfred P Haake Comrade Lenin of Russia once remarked that he would destroy the United States by inducing us to spend ourselves to death. There people who laughed at hi* pretension, fiut, an the light of what haa actually happened since then* it ia not funny. Wo ABE spending ourselves to death. » Wo have given away almost .125 billion dollars worth of goods. That means 126 thousand million dollars, or the equivalent of two dollars for every second of time since Christ was born. Or, in more modern terms, it means ten thousand dollars for every family in the United States living west of the Mississippi Rier. Our public debt is double that of all Europe. Think of it! The 150 million people of the United /States have a government debt twice as Urge as that of all the governments of the 600 million people of Europe. , Tragically intertwined with our debt is the need for a huge national income, about 300 billion dollars a year. But the income la predicted largely on government spending. Let the government in Washington relax its extravagance and immediately unemployment begins to appear. It is an unn healthy, unsound prosperity, once hailed with the ironical song, "Happy Days Are Here Again." Now we are spending for politics. Quite apart from mink coats, freezers for free, favors through the R.FJC., and other gentle indications of executive leniency, is the planting of hundreds of thousands of federal employees in s number of states. These thousands, with their families, helped elect Harry Truman in lMt^and they have more votes today than they had then. Bo the taxpayers’ money is being spent to make sure that they continue to finance the creeping socialism that must eventually destroy our freedom. The administration has been pulverising Russia with threats pnd admonitions, while beginning to do the very things that it fired MacArthur for wanting to do in the Far East. But the American people need not be afraid of Russian military might, not yet Whs* they need to fear 1s the whittling *way of our own strength, the undermining of our own security by influence in authority of people friendly to Russian ideas who carry out th« program of spending thitf Lenin once said he would induce to destroy us. And "good old Joe" undoubtedly laughs up his sleeve, or snickers into his vodka, as ho sees the United States throwing its strength down the gutter of government spending. What a delicious morsel H must be for Stalin to see us futilely fighting inflation by sitting on the lid of prices while we turn up the fire of inflationary causes underneath, trying to control prices by edict while government spending continues to pour more diluted dollars into the watered stream of purchasing power which has already stolen away more than half of our savings during the past ten years. There are , still congenitally lhori-iighted people who laugh at tfcr idea of the United States ever going down the drain, while the President boasts that the people will surely return him or'his crowd to power. And Stalin laughs and laughs at the spectacle *f the United States spending itself into the dutches of Russian ideology. But you and I, the taxpayers, the millions of workers who wore encouraged to believe that only the corporations and rich would pay the iii^her tun, i it is w® who have to ] iwone, oar children end children's children will be forced to labor for more than a hundred yearn to - pay for the tone our piper no# pipes.

Carvin Cove, a 650-acre lake located near Roanoke, joins the list of underfished lakes surveyed by fish technician, Bob Martin, his survey turned up the fact that Carvin Cove hinges upon an overpopulation of bass, causing them to fall short of the legal size limit by just a hair. There are too many fish for the amount of fhod,' “Restocking here would be considered detrimental," says Rosebery, “and the solution lies in hard fishing." ■*,. : ?. To further back up the fact that fishermen are misgraded, Rosebery and G. W. Buller, chief of the fish divison, found that in the small streams at the mouth of the Chickahominy River, water# which are fished but little, extremely high population of bass are going relatively untapped because fishermen just don’t fish there.

George Litton, associate animal husbandman at V.P.I., says the contest is designed to encourage better 'flock management practices in Virginia. It is sponsored by the Virginia PureDred !Sheep Breeders’ Association and the Extension Service. Sheepmen interested in competing should sign up by January 1. Entry blanks are available from the animal husbandry department at V.P.I., Blacksburg. Farmers entering the contest should have an official count made of ewes in November or 'December. County agents, vocational education instructors, tSCS representatives, or any member of the Sheep Breeders’ Association can make the count.

They, also must use a registered ram, and keep for official records during the contest the exact number of awes signed up for originally. Awards will be made at tha January meeting of the Virginia Sheep Breeders’ Association. HOMEMAKERS’ ITEMS New asphalt and rubbber tile floors are smooth, shiny, and attractive, but jbhey quickly become shabby and worn when they are not protected. ' That’s the warning from Ruth Jamison, house furnishing specialist at V.P.I., who says the only practical maintance finish for them is self-polishing wax. Dbn’t use paste wax on asphalt and rubber tile. Asphalt tile is an extremely hard flooring, but the asphalt ingredient softens when it comes irt contact with solvent. . . the liquid used for thinning paste wax. Rubber tile also is made of an ingredient that absorbs solvent used in polisning wax, resulting in swelling of the iloor. Bleeding colors can be cleaned with a commercial floor cleaner, which when mixed with water and applied to the floor will help remove loose dye. If the floor is pitted (but not too deep) because solvent wax or an oil has been used, you can use #1 or No- 2 steel wool to cut the floor back where it is hard and shows a certain amount of sheen. Miss Jamison also the flooT should be clean and dry when the self-polishing wax is applied. Here are some other tips: Don’t apply lacquer, varnish, shellac or so-called “plastic ’ finishes to asphalt and lubber‘tile floors. Don’t allow spilled'food or, water- to remain on the floor. Don’t use strong soap or caustic cleaning solnoiuts, turpentine, gasoline, etc. Ringe thoroughly after every washing with soap or synthetic detergent. Don’t wait for a new floor to show wear before waxing. Apply a protective coating as soon as the cement has dried. Don’t let the wax film wear through in hedvy traffic t spots. Don’t allow dirt and grit ai accumulate for days. . . the more grit on the floor, the more wear. Don’t use an oil mop. This may damage the floor and will soften a wax coating.

Civilian Defense Includes Nurses Classes Dr Mack I. Shanholtz, State Health Commissioner, has announced that he has received a report from Miss Olive J. 'Faulkner, Chief Nursing Service for Civilian Defense, stating that approximately100 instructors have been trained and are now ready, to start Classes for all professional nurses in “The Nursing Aspects of Atomic Warfare.*' The classes will include many inactive nurses as well as those Currently employed in industry, hospitals, private duty and public health. The material -which will be used in these classes is also being integrated into the basic program of all schools of nursing throughout the state, Dr. Shanholtz said.

Dari* St. CULPEPER %SSm Nurse* may obtain information about these classes by calling or writing to the Chief of Local Kncy Medical ^Services or to te Chief of Nursing Services, State Health Department, Richmond, Virginia. Training is considered essential to all nurses, whether active or retired, in order that they may be able to participate in the Civilian Defense program in time of disaster. Miss Faulkner urges those who have not filled out enrollment cards to do so now in order that they will be ready for training as soon as classes are organized. f The manuel, “A Guide For Teaching Basic Information to Professional Nurses in the Defense Against Atomic Warfare,” is used in the training course. This teaching guide was prepared by the Committee on Nursing Service for Chilian Defense, composed of those nurses who attended the institute on Nursing Aspects of Atomic Warfare held in Atlanta, Georgia, in January of this year, with the assistance of advisors from the State Health Department and the Graduate Nurses Association of Virginia. '~ Many requests for this manual have been received, according to Dr. Shanholtz. It has been sent to Civilian Defense authorities in each state, the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Alaska, Guam and Canada, as well as two agencies of the Federal government and state libraries. -- GOOD POSTURE MEANS GOOD BODY How you habitually open a window, lift a bag of groceries, sit at work or stand in the bus can have an important effect on your health and energy as iwell as your looks, <Dr. Mack I. Shanholtz, State Health 'Commissioner, pointed out today an he announced that Virginia was joining with other states in the l'3th annual observance of National Posture Week, October 15-20. The event climaxes the yearround programs of the Samuel Higby Camp Institute for Better Posture, New York City, founded by the late S. H. Camp, philanthropist of Jackson, Michigan. Schools, colleges, Y’s health and maternity centers and other groups interested in public health education participate and reach millions of children and adults. “Despite our astonishing array of labor saving appliances, ranging from the washing machine to the automible, most people keep complaining about ’that tired feeling,” Dr. Shanholtz said. “One important reason is that they do not use correctly the appliance they were born with, the body. Most of us simply do not keep our body in balance and do a lot of extra work, creating a lot of extra fatigue because we refuse to learn the simple lessons of better body mechanics. The way you use your body to open a window, lift the baby or a bag of groceries, the way you sit at your desk or stand in a bus can have a marked effect on your health, energy and looks. ‘‘Poor posture, the slump and slouch, takes part of the job away from our bones and hands it to the muscles. Their protest is called “fatigue” or “that tired feeling”. To add to the bill of poor posture the extra strain thrown on the joints and ligaments can lead to backache and pains. The change in your shape cramps your lungs and other internal organs, often causing improper functioning. “Good posture or good body mechanics is a matter of thinking about it as you go about your daily duties and relaxation. Keep your body under your head and let your weight hang from your shoulders like a coat. You will find that -you look better, feel better and conserve your energy. One last warning. Good posture is only one element. If postural faults are severe, if you suffer from chronic backache, muscular pains or other continuing symptoms, make a beeline for your doctor, “Dr. Shanholtz concluded.

If the goal is reached, the total number of women in the Armed Forces will be at least 112,000. This week is known as “Women in the Services” week, and was off to a flying start with a nationwide radio and TV broadcast last Sunday by President Truman, Secretary of Defense Lovett, and Mrs. Anna Rosenberg, Assistant Secretary of Defense, all citing the need for women in the services. In stressing the fact that women in the services now are given equality, opportunity, and promotion with whom they serve, Mra> Rosenberg was also emphatic in her statement that all branches of the Armed Forces desperately need more enlisted women and officers. Each of the women's services - the WAC (Army), the WAVES (Na\y), the WAF (Air Force), the Women Marines, the Army, Navy, Air Force Nurse Corps, and the service’ Medical Specialist Corps - are in great need of volunteers if the defense machinery is to continue at a high state of effectiveness. In the WAC alone, there exists an urgent need for at least 18,819 more enlisted women and 925 officers to boost its overall strength within the next few months to 32,000. The total personnel strength of the WAVES today is but a fraction of what it was in World War II. There are only 6,311 WAVES presently in the Navy, and the Department of Defense wants to “ bring WAVE strength up to 10,000 officers. The fact underlying the Air Force's appeal for 38,299 more enlisted women and 3,397 officers is that theye simply are not enough men to meet military needs as well as the nation’s industrial requirements during the mounting crisis. At present, WAP strength is only 8,175 enlisted and commissioned. The need for more women volunteers is as urgfent for the Marine Corps as it is for the other ser vice*, with the Women Marine* down to a personnel strength of only 24165 enlisted and 86 officers. & And a desperate shortage of professional nurses exists in all components of the Armed Forces, with vacancies existing for nearly 7,000 nurses. The majority of appointments in the Nurses corps are made in the grades second oxfirst lieutenant in the Army and Air Force, and ensign or lieutenant (junior grade) in the Navy; hoWever added professional experienoa and education map warrant) a higher grade. “The. selected young women who have choeen to serve America in the Armed Forces have done so in the finest traditions of the services,” Mrs. Rosenberg said. “The demand for more women to fill more and more jobs is a sincere compliment to their ability, loyalty, and devotion to duty.'* -arWhen in doubt—Don’t Better Buy NOW! — _I msd ■ aluminum THIS GUARANTEE IS INSURED ST ONE Of THE NATION'S LARGEST INSURANCE COMPANIES NO OTHER WINDOW DARES MAKE THIS GUARANTEE T«s, w* guarani** that bu*id#» bringing you yuar 'round comII fort, MSCO will actually no you at least 30% fual th* tint L yaar—-or wo 'll pay you tho dif|| ftrtixt In cash/ ■ / Phone Washington!
