Jones won a free subscription to die News for one year, by being die first person to inform us that The Sargasso Sea has no shore as it » entirely surrounded by the Adaintic Ocean. Among those persons who wrote in the correct answer and ran a close second to Mrs. Jones was Mrs. Beatrice M. Waterhouse, wife of a former Episcopal minister of this county, both « fondly remembered.

It is a fine looking building that will provide adequate space for housing the fire equipment, a kitchen for the auxiliary’s activities .and a large hall which will most probably be the answer for the much felt need for a community center. It is heartening to see the enthusiasm that the community shows in this project and the pride with which they tell of its progress. Every week our trash can is lit■ tered with unopened mail, letters addressed to the Blue Ridge Guide Washington, Va.,.the Washington Times, Rappahannock Herald and other newspapers that • no longer exist, or drat have never existed ! in the county. Likewise there is often a deluge of letters directed to personalities long deceased. This type of mail is distasteful to say the least. It shows inefficiency and thoughtlessness and betrays the writer’s real interest in the one written to. Politicians and other persons who persist in: addressing their speeches, etc; that they wish A published, to non-existing organiA zations, may look toward to having them printed by the organizaj tions, and not by us. _| 1 WILLIAM ARMENTROUT "I ARRIVES IN KOREA U.

Number One Killer Fought In February Heart Fund Drive A renewal of this community’* war against diseases of the heart and circulation will get underway with the opening of the 1955 Heart Fund campaign next Tuesday, February 1st. Mrs, Paul A. Miller is chairman of the county committee. „ An overall goal of $200,000 has been set for the 1955 fund drive. No goal has been set for Rappahannock Cpunty,, except the goal tmgive more than was given last yea^r. Only $50 was raised in response to 400 letters of appeal ; mailed in 1954. Yet diseases of the heart and circulation, responsible for nearly 800,000 deaths yearly, are the nation's No. 1 health problem. Of the nation’s 10,000,000 persons suffering from these diseases of the heart and blood vessels, more than, 500,000 are j children of school age. For evenr 2 people who died in Virginia in j, 1953, 1 died of these diseases. All contributions received will be used by the Heart Association to support a three-way attack on the heart disease through research, education and community heart projects, with a major portion of the funds remaining in this community and state, and with the remainder going to advance the work .of dw American Heart Aasocfotion. % d Your support of this cause no t actually a “contribution”—it’s aaC investment. It ts an investment looking toward the conquest of the nation’s foremost^ealdi probleat It is an investment that’s going to pay off. ■.

Anne Dwyer Writes ^ From Lebanon Beirut, Lebanon -' Dear Friends in Christ, It is now 12 noon in Beirut which means that it is 6 ajn. EST. at home. There have '< been many highlights -since we (CarolynCate, a nurse from Chattanooga; Nancy, Bill and Louise Hearn from N. C. and Mo.) |eft New York. We arrived in Beirut on the 20 day which was Oct; 13. Our boat was the EXCAMBION of the Ameri"Ncan Export line. It carried 125 )passengers and was most comfort-•abl?. We have realized even more arrived and talked with it a wonderful voyage we had. There was only a sprinkle of rain and the sea was smooth exceptyfor one night. None of us Jfieasick. [ Perhaps the most exciting event when we visited your mias, the Roy Wyatts, Chaijles Whittens and Joe Meffords in Barcelona, Spain. Four days previously the Meffords had moved to Valencia but were in town for an evangelistic fQeetin& that night. We saw two Baptist Churches and 'the seminary. The 12 Seminary, students wer$ radiant and enthusiastic. We shook hands twice around; when we arrived and when we left. The igeople here love to shake hands and that'helps a , lot when you cannot talk with them. We had worship services aboard ship each Sunday. There were five other missionaries representing other denominations,* so we had prayer meetings, Bible study, hymn singing and much fellowship. This story does not end like that of the brave pioneers Luther Rice and Ann and Adoniram Judson who became Baptist before they readied their journeys end. > I was conscious of the words of “Borden of Yale” spoken about his first trip abroad: “I have never thought very seriously about being a missionary until lately. I think this trip is going to be a great help in showing things to me in a new light. I can’t explain what my views were, _ but I met such pleasant young people on the steamer who were going out as missionaries, and meeting them in* fluenced me. . . .” Oiir boat docked at Spain, France, Italy and Egypt. Sometimes we felt that we were taking a cruise as we were allowed to go ashore in each place. You may be assured that it was most interesting, educational and sometimes embrassing. Alexandria, Egypt was like a different world with its poverty, intense heat and strange language. It was depressing as well but as we were leaving we received a "shot in the arm" when this message arrived: “Welcome to Lebanon. I Thessalonians 5:24. Lebanese Baptists and Missionaries.” We have a wonderful group with which to work. We felt that we know them before we arrived as we had been corresponding. Here is a typical quote from one of their letters: “May you feel His guiding hand of mercy and love during these days and weeks as you prepare to leave your loved ones. I can assure you that you have a new/‘family* awaiting you; you wijf find a home in their hearts— both of the nationals and of your fellow-missionaries.” Never truer words were spoken. The mission house is full, so all of us will have apartments nearby. Carolyn Cate and I have a third floor apartment which overlooks the Mediterranean, Lebanon mts. and the entire city with its flat-roofed houses, many balconies and palm trees. From this point we can watch the multitude of people going to and fro. All you need to drive a car here is a horn. The one who blows first at an intersection is the one who has the right of way. There is a continuous stream of honking from the deep bass of the buses to the soprano of all makes of cars. In between are the numerous vendors with carts, wagons, donkeys and bicycles Who call in Arabic everything from pots and pans to olives. \ We were impressed with Lebanon from the first. It's coastline was lovely with the Lebanon mts. in the background. Perhaps you already know that Lebanon is known as the "Switzerland of the East." It is 35 miles and 120 miles long, on the shore of a blue, blue Mediterranean bebtween Israel and Syria. Vegetables and fruits are plentiful and cheap in season. At the market we found everything from butter to "Howdy Doody” products. We have eaten quite a few AraB foods and like most of them. Coffee is the most difficult. It is as sweet as syrup and almost* as thick. How glad we are that they serve it in demitasse cups. We walked down to the sea last week and went through one of the refuge camps. One of the girls from the church lives there and had missed services several times, so we visited to see what was wrong. The mother came out and insisted that we come in for coffee. We saw that she was going to be offended if we did not accept her hospitality sooooo we went in. The water has to be boiled to heat the coffee and if you can drink it hot^ enough it could sterilize the cup as you drirjk it, not to mention the esophagus. lhe Executive Committee ot jjje Arab Mission is meeting this 'Veck and we have had the privilege of meeting Dr. J. T. Me- [ Rae who is at the hospital in Gaza < and the Lovegreens from the hospital at Ajlon. They are most enthusiastic and it is good to get a first-hand account. I have spoken three times but not in 'Arabic. It was briefly at prayer meeting, at the women’s meeting and to the girls through! an interpreter (interrupter). One has to experience it to know what it is like. 1 feel that the interpreter gets to do the speaking, preaching or whatever it is. Our eyes see much to be'done, but we are as helpless as babes. Language school begins November 1. In die meantime we are getting our apartments furnished, learning to find our way around and becoming oriented. Just as completely as I rest a tired body on the bed at night, so I feel in the hands of the God who has prepared and led me to this place. Of course it has been true all long but I have not noticed it and felt it to such t degree. - , ! Agnes Thurmon of 1646 Oak Knoll Circle, S.E., Atlanta, Ga., has graciously consented to take care of these quarterly letters. For any change of address correspond with her or write me direedy. I should like to hear from you at least annually. Also, the Anne Dwyer Y. W. A. of the Lakewood Height* Baptist Church, Atlanta, Georgia will be helping to send these. r,vcn tnougn wc uuunn. I feel that I already know much about the Lebanese Christians. They put us to shame by their faithfulness. They have a night for prayer meeting and it is just that, another for Bible study and asermon on Wednesday night. They sing with a gusto that I have not witnessed before. I am indebted and grateful to many of .you. Carey’s illustration of those who held the ropes while he descended has become living and | real. I rest assured that your outward manifestations of love arb revelations of . a deeper love prompted by the One who gave himself. I’d like to sit down and write each of you individually but it is impossible. Neither is it practical for me to personally take care of these letters on the field. In the name of Him who went about doing good. -1 -AnneDwyer < DEEDS RECORDED From Joseph S. Hitt to Floyd B.

You were faithful and honest all of your prayers Devoted and true to the end your days Always patient loving and kind - What a beautiful memory you left behind. There are those who see us smiling But they can never know How our hearts are aching For the Dear One we loved so. You would not want the 'ones you , loved To grieve for you today •We will not say that you are dead But waiting for us, just awa;r. Not dead, what a beautiful • fi ’ thought %[' To cheer us through life’s way Not dead, but bloomed into a life Where time 4s eternally day. i So sleep in peace, dear love one .
