Crowds of masked youngsters moved into the _real spirit of Halloween and ate the housewives out of cookies and candy. There were no malicious tricks that we have heard of, and only a little window soaping. With the county making such a safe showing, there will be more parents who will let their children. join their friends in the good clean ' fun next year. . - o o o o* How many Rappahannock voters came to the polls in Tuesday’s general election?—Around _ 573 citizens polled their vote , Tuesday. Nick Cascio with a 'guess of 680 wins the free year’s — subscription to the News. All other guesses were much higher, _for instance: Walton Lillard, 865, G. W. Frazier, 713, P. S. Green, 796, and Frank Armentrout, 815. o o o o ► Parents, patrons and all intertested persons are urged to visit the following county schools during National Education Week, November 8 through November 12.

Board of Supervisors Reject Sunday “Ban” On Beer, Wine Sale . - The Rappahannock Board of Supervisors, in their Wednesday session, rejected the suggested proposal to prohibit the Sunday sale of Beer and Wine as Super—visor W. C. Campbell’s motion to this effect died for lack of a second. Mr. Campbell proposed an alterernate motion to place a ban on the Sunday sale of wine only. "Supervisor Wood seconded this motion and the vote stood at a 3-3 tie with Estes, Latham and Buckner opposing the ban and Cook, Campbell and Wood supporting the motion. Attorney James W. Fletcher wiU appear at the next meeting to break the tie. 7 Coldiron Presents Budget P. D. Coldiron, Resident Engineer, presented the road budget for final approval. Campbell made a motion that the budget be approved and Buckner seconded this motion. There was additional discussion on numerous roads in the Supervisor’s respective districts that are badly in need of repair or improvement. A. H. Keyser appeared before the Board and stated that the much traveled 262 could well stand work done on it.-f W. C. Campbell made the motion that a road in his district, “off 211 near Gibson Wharton’s be included in the State System.” Buckner seconded the motion. A permanent road viewing board was appointed: D. D. Miller, R. E. Wood, Emory^ Russell, R. E. Doyle aqd Raymond Johnson. : Smaller Matters Discussed Three sheep claims were heard and accepted: C. E. Brown, $50; W. H.

A total of 181 heifers 4 to 8 months of age were vaccinated for 45 different owners located in all sections of the county. o o o o I hear talk of the starting of local auction sales designed to assist farmers in selling equipment that is surplus on their own farm C _ i .. and yet serviceable to others. Several farmers approached on the idea have indicated they would - like to see such an auction developed. In addition farmers frequently inquire at this office of the availability of second hand equipment or report having machinery in serviceable condition which they themselves no longer need. I should think it would be necessary t for farmers having equipment to sell to report items “for sale” several weeks in advance to permit these planning to put on • the auction an opportunity to advertise the sale and principal items that would be offered.
