Mr. Miller, president of Madison College, Harrisonburg, is a. former superintendent of schools in Rappahannock and Warren counties. He is the son of Mrs. John J. Miller, of Flint Hill, and the late Mr. Miller. President Miller spoke before the assembly of 100 educators on Friday, using as his subject: “Meeting Virginia’s Needs •'Looking Toward 1960”. Using facts • (See MILLER, Page 2) ffigimrarir Somewhere in Florida a tousleheaded three-year-old — die child of migrantJaborers—plays in the safety of child-care center, apart from the hazards of the dirt roads of the migrant community. Across the nation in Minneapolis an American Indian, newly arrived in the city in seach of work, is given help in locating a home for his family. And in die great metropolis of New York, a young college student from overseas thousands of miles from home gets his first sense of “belonging” in a strange land through the kindly guidance of an adviser of the Committee for. Friendly Relations Among* Fois eign Students. >• Around the globe to Africa and: beyond to the Orient—in India, Pakistan, Japan, China, and Korea—Christian leaders are receiving the training they need to better serve their own people in some of the world-famous interdenominational Christian colleges. These and an increasing number of similar services to people thruout the world are made possible each year through the prayers and offerings received through the World Day of Prayer. This year Americans in an estimated 20,000 communities once again will , join with their fellow Christians as in 125 countries prayers rise in identical or similar ’ services, marking the Sxty-eighth anniversary of the observance. Traditionally held on the first day of Lent, the day falls this year on February 25. Theme for the 1955 services is “Abide in Man,” John In Rappahannock, this World Day of Prayer will be observed with prayer’ services following the program prepared by Minister Jorgelinda ' Lozada in Trinity Episcopal Church at 11 o’clock.’ Now an international event, die World Day of Prayer dates back to 1887 when a Presbyterian woman in Boston called for a nationwide day of prayer for home missions. >In 1920 the idea was adopted in Canada and seven years later, at the request of Christian leaden in other lands, it became a world-wide observance. The day’s services begin as die sun rises on the Tonga Islands and continue around the globe until daftness settles over Alaska twenty-four houn later with the final observance held on St. Lawrence Island. The service is written each year by a woman or group of women from a different nation, then is adapted and translated into scores of tongues and into Braille. The service this year was prepared by Mbs Joregelina Lozada, of Buenos Aires, Argentina, a minister of the Disciples of Christ. One of her country’s ecumenical leaders, Miss. Lozada is the gecretary of religious, education of the Conference of Evangelical Churches in Argentina. Central to the service is the prayer for understanding among all peoples, for the growth of the Christian church around the entire World and for world peace. It stresses the unity of all Christians though separated by geographical and national boundaries. -* HAMPTON INN* OPEN AFTER REMODELING Hampton Inn and Service Station, owned by Gibson Wharton and Dan Price has recently added a cinderblock addition, resulting in an enlarged restaurant. and modernize^ The surfboard used to finish the walls of the dining room, lends a richness to the atmosphere.

STANLEY i Governor of Viroinia PRO and CON, from Page 1 Leila Gentry of flint HSI won a free subscription to, the News by being the first person to com‘ plete the following sentence and - -name its source: ’ • ’They that go down to the sea in ships, that do. business in. great waters. They see the worjcs of Jehovah and His wonders in the deep.—Psalm 107. * To win a free subscription to the Rappahannock News be the first person to correctly answer this question: “What basketball player holds top scoring honors, and .what college does he attend ? President Eisenhower has of• ■ fered two proposals of late htat we can’t see eye-to-eye with. Last , week we, read of his proposal to send our surplus wheat to Russia, free of charge. Many persons voice approval of this plan, offer* ing one of the following arguments—“It’s the Christian thing to do; “Let’s be a good Samaritan;” “Why not—after all, it’s wheat we’re giving them, hot bullets.” And a third Will argue “Our generosity will impress the real people of Russia' and may do much toward winning them for democracy.” , We ask, in response; is it a Christian teaching to j feed one people, building them up to prey - on another? Is this wheat not “war material” if it strengthens them for the preying. Remember, too, the people that it would reach, .and precious few of these would be the ordinary folk, would not be enlightened as to the identity of the givtr. The wheat will not be accompanied by a portrait of a kindly Uncle Sain. Rather, through trickery and low publicity, they will be led to "believe that it. is a gracious gift from their ever-loving dictator. Thus it will serve to bind them ever closer to a warped ideal. The few that would glean an ounce qf the truth and thus an ounce of democracy, would not be worth the _ many that would follow, even strengthen, the party line. The other proposal we bring to your attention is one reported on Monday in the Times-Dispatch: a proposal to trim Federal appropriations to the school lunch program by $15,000,000 which would. mean a loss of. about $600,000, worth of supplementary foods in; Virginia schools participating in the prograny. VV nilc WC IC UII lilt suujtvi vra school lunch programs, there’s something that has puzzled me for some time. From numerous reports during the time that'the Flint Hill school lunch program was in progress, we learned that it was a very satisfactory program, one that most pupils- and parents both were in favor of. At the end of the session it was not in the red. People still maintained their interest in the project, ana offered their help. Yet it was discontinued. MILLER, From Page 1 and figures, he drew a clear picture of the urgent needs of all colleges in the State to expand to meet the rising tide of students which is anticipated in Virginia and throughout the nation in the next five to ten years.

Details of the 1954 operations Were given to the board of directors Monday afternoon at its annual meeting. Samuel M, Be- , miss, the president presided. Details of the operations of the 55year-old organization were explained by J. W. Stuart Gilchrist, the general secretary.. Mrs. D. D. Miller has served as chairman of the work for the Children’s Home Society in this section and through her efforts and the efforts of those with whom she has worked, many contributions have been sent to help in the work of the Society. . Last year, the Society received 141 new babies into care. There •were 104 babies received in 1953; 105 in 1952; and 100 in 1951. The total number of children in the care of the Society last year was 330 as compared with 287 in 1953; 283 in 1952; and 272 in 1951. ' Last year, there were 521 requests for adoptions and with 47i requests pending at the end of 1953, the Society had 994 requests for adopted babies. Only 98 babies were legally adopted from the Society last year. Twenty-two babies were returned to their parents, leaving slightly over 200 babies in the care of the Society at the end of the year. . Last year the Society also helped % babies although they were not placed for adoption. Of this number, 21 were given some care in one of the Society’s boarding homes. . . At the end of the year, the Society had 53 babies in boarding homes under study. At the same time, the Society was supervising 153 babies it had placed in adoptive homes, y ' . \y ■ ' Income for the' Society’s opera• ■■ ■ ■■ . '• ..

It is a" known fact that mSney raising for organizations such as ours has become quite competitive and this reflects in contributions. But our Society apparently still is held in high regard throughout the state. “Our expenses,” he said, “were $8,067 more last year than in 1953. This required us to use $11,500 from the principal'in our Memorial Fund to meet our expenses, but even then, bequests to the, Society last year increased this' Memorial Fund by more than $7,000.” “We know that all df you who have had a part; in this work will be happy about this,” he conduct ed.

Planning To Paint? By ff'. Hi Ljne, C*. Agent ; Spring time- is painting time, ^sture’s. way of freshening up the appearance of .the country side in die spring makes us want to freshen up the appearance of the fireside. Dogwood in blossom . . . trees in new leaf . .. fresh green (hoots of grass . . . all of nature la her new dress make many buildings seemingly bright .in winter look drab in spring so we try to imitate her. j| Painting is done for appearance, it bolsters home pride and satisfaction. Also good paint prevents Wood from checking and warping which are important factors in the depreciation of farm structures. Present construction costs being high, good paint properly applied K cracking good investment. For instance the Missouri Agricultural Experiment Station pub-, fished a report some time ago which was based on results of a survey of 273 building? comparing painted and unpainted service buildings. Buildings that were unpainted gave 37 years of service, those painted when built (3 coats) but not after, were serviceable for nearly 46 years while those painted as needed were serviceable for 53 veaVs. The first paint job yielding 3.73 per cent return on the investment while costs of paint as needed gave a return of 3.22 per cent both considering the extended life of buildings because of the use of good paint. 1 Unfortunately all paint* can t he classed as good paints simply because the paint manufacturers are shrewd enough to realize that many paint buyer* bale their purchase on |yice per gallon alone. This is just another case of “get* ting what you pay for." . I am unable to give you the percentage labor costs would be of the total costs of painting, however, suffice it to say that it is certainly a major item. Thus when you invest in a painting job most people would want to use a paint that is tough, durable, capable of expanding or contracting as the temperature varies, and one that brightens up the appearance of buildings. Pigments are .that part of paint that freshens up or covers up.' Durability comes from* the vehicle that “carries" the pigments, the principle one being linseed oil. Always remember, there is no pigment which will completely replace white lead and no vehicle that could completely replace linseed oil. Since thert-are different grades of paint put on the market by most manufacturers just as there are different grades of apples, beef or anything else, you probably are wondering how you can tell which paint to buy. Look well to the formula printed on the label. The Housing and Home Finance Research Agency in Washington about 1950-52, made a study of about 50 to 60 different high grade commercial paints. TTiey found that the majority of these high grade paints were made of white lead, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide pigments and raw linseed oil, and bodied linseed oil composing the major portions of the vehicle.’ (C.

Five Forest Fires Reported In County During Last Year According to District Forester ' D. G. Wilfong, Jh, there were 283 forest fires reported in 1954 in1 the Northern Piedmont District. This Virginia Forest Service District follows the Blue Ridge Mts. from the Potomac River to the Janies River and contains sixteen counties. ■ " . " - There were 5 forest fires in Rappahannock County in 1954. 40.5 acres Were burned. 8.110 acres were burned by the average fire. This number of fires is a slight decrease from the number of fires reported in 1953, but it is still more than were reported in the year preceding this dry spell. "Hurricane Hazel” and the wet weather which has followed it put a stop to what had promised to be one of the worst years for forest fires which we have experienced in this state. The number of fires reported up until the hurricane was greater than in previous years. A total of 1.667 ; acres were burned in 1954, at an estimated loss of $120,000 worth of valuable timber. In 1953, 1,7)3 acres were burned .over. I t Because of the dry| weather, a surprising number of fires occurred during the relatively safe sunn mer months. Albemarle County had the greatest number of fires reported (59}• and Greene County had the least number (4). ■< The effective work by the Chief Forest Wardens is shown by the fact -that suppression costs were Collected on 44% of the fires.
