Washington Council List Projects For April Clean-Up Day. Clean-Up Day was discussed at kngth in the April meeting of die Washington Town Council field Tuesday night at 7:30. In connection with the special day set aside as a spring house cleaning for the town, the council voted to: bring out the town benches from storage (for the winter) and have than painted; clean up various specific places ih town; have a special additional trash collection and rake and mow the town lots. The entrance signs to the town will also be given a face-lifting in the form of a new coat of paint and lettering.] Mrs. Morgan Johnston reported that the town leaflets would soon reach completion. Miss Ruby Jenkins, in a report on die television set, stated that in correspondence with the Stromberg, Carlson Company, it had been agreed that the company would give die set a final thorough check up and repair. 'j# j Following a brief discussion on the town water system and die condition of the water, Mayor Davis was selected to contact the local sanatarian in regard to die situation. It was suggested that the bondholders be asked to buy a new chlorinator for the water system. i. I Various smaller matters Were discussed by the council. j I] MRS.

(Continued on Page 6) Randall Updike * 4-H*er Of The Month Randall Updike is the third son of Mr. and Mrs. John Updike of Washington, to be honored as a “4-H’eij Of The Month.” Four ! years ago, this quiet and industrious young man began his 4-H career with an acre* of com. One - huridred and twenty - four bushels ; were produced on this acre, to win him second prize in the Junior Division of the 100 Bushel Corn Club. He has continued this excellent beginning by enlarging his projects each year in both scope and number. These | projects now include sheep, corn, rural electric, Holstein heifers, Hereford cow, lav' ing hens and a Poland China gilt. By this Fall he will have completed sixteen projects. . _ 'l Randall’s main interest is his sheep and like all successful shepherds, he is quiet and kind with them, placing the needs of his sheep above those of his own. Five ewes and 3 years equal $292.00 net profit. $53.04 prize money, 10 ewes and a promising crop of spring lambs for Randall. A regular participant in die Harrisonburg 4-H Lamb Show, Randall has placed near the top consistently. , ■ , Randall is an active member of die Rappahannock Livestock Judging Team and just naturally has taken to ‘a set of sheep shears. Still young in 4-<H work, Randall has already realized the practical value of his projects and through jiard work has met success. We expect to hear of even' larger successes in the future. 4 T. Booton Dwyer Thomas Booton Dwyer, died at his home in Gid Brown Hollow, near Washington, Sunday, Apnl 10th at the age of 80. The ton of Miles Jackson Dwyer and Mary Frances Dwyer, both of Rappahannock, Mr. Dwyer spent all his life here. In 1914 he married Emily Burke and 16 children were born to them. Three survive their father,; Thomas Dwyer of Sperryville, Mrs. Clyde Pullen of Washing^ ton and Mrs. Bessie Bailey of Baltimore, Maryland. Mr. Dwyer is also survived by a sister, Nancy Compton, 15 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. Funeral services were conducted Tuesday evening at 1 pun. from his church, the Old Brethem Church in Gid Brown Hollow, | with interment in the Washington Masonic Cemetery. The Reverends Messrs. O. R. Hursh and O. M. Burke officiated at the last rites. Active pallbearers were Tom Dwyer, Ambos Bailey, Ira Comptom, Clarence Dwyer, James Dwyer and Archie Bailey. AmissviUe Firemen Vote Down Ambulance Buy Portable Pump At a well-attended and interesting meeting on April 6, the Amissville Volunteer Firemen made a number of decisions of note to absent members and friends of the Department. v A heavily one-sided agreement was reached not to purchase the used ambulance which has been under consideration for the past six weeks. The feeling was very strong that although there was a need for a Rescue Squad and ambulance, that the Department was not as yet ready to expand its activities in that direction. By a similarly decisive vote it was agreed to purchase the posable pump Which has been in the possession of the Volunteers for the last month. Use of the pumf> at least once convinced the great majority of the usefulness of such an auxiliary to their equipment. Charles Compton called attention of the Department to the need of waterproofing the outside cinder block walls, and offered to donate the necessary material provided the Department would pay for the labor of applying it. The donation was accepted with thanks and installation should start as soon as the labor can be obtained. At the suggestion ot rresident Tear it was voted to erect a flagpole and to obtain a set of National Colors to fly from the pole on holidays and special occasions determined by the Department. TTrat installation, it 'is hoped, will be completed prior to Memorial * Day, The Department with regret accepted the resignation of VicePresident W. A. Laing, Jr., who feels that the pressure of other duties prevents him from continuing in the position he has held the past two and a half years. The President announced that the next monthly meeting would be open for nominations for a new VicePresident. , > After some discussion it was voted to withdiaw from the Firemen’s Baseball League and to donate any share of profit in that organization which might have accrued to Amissville to the League, in view of the fact that Amissville had contributed nothing but money to the League at its. inception. The Department will sponsor a dance at the Fire Hall on April 15 to the music of the Green Valley Boys and hopes for a good attendance to strengthen the low < balance presently in the treasury.

Pmblisk*' , Catered as second -class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia , SUBSCRIPTION- 'in advance*_,_____ $2.00.a year CAN YOU BEUEVEf Can you believe that prayer doe? help Phe to understand and ^ face the issues of Gfe in a more Christ-like manner? If one is to know the benefit of prayer he must believe in the habit and necessity of prayer. It seems that the most common mistake we make as people is asking to be shown the value of prayer without first resorting to cultivate faith in prayer itself. There have been many sermons , preached on the value received .and not enough on the need to pray to know the value of praying. It is true that God does answer prayer; it is also true that He only answers the prayer of the believer. We cannot expect Clod’s help unless we believe He can do it and will do it if we ask Him. Each person must learn to believe that prayer is his means of ' communicating with God and letting Him know we wish Him to help us. There are many ways that God uses to communicate with us— through the Bible, nature, and frieiids. We are not able to create things and inspire people as God » able to do. Therefore, prayer is our means of talking to God and inviting Him to lead us into the truth that will help us in all situations. Can you believe that God wants you to live in darkness (doubt) and be overcome by fear? It will help a great deal to let Him know you nepd Him in your difficulties. The preachers in your community seek to serve God and wish to help other people establish their faith in such a way that God will be real to them. It is difficult for a preacher to help a person cultivate habits that will strengthen their faith before he is asked for help by the person. If you desire to believe in the power of prayer and think that the minister can help: call him and he will do his best to assist you. Remember, your minister has been through many spiritual trials and tribulations His advice may be the means provided by God for you to learn to have faith in prayer. A little shepherd boy was obliged to keep watch over his sheep and so could not go to church. But in his heart there grew up a longing to pray to- God, as they were doing in church. He had, however, never been taught any prayer, and so kneeling down, he began with closed eyes and folded hands,, say Note a deeper, tidier rose^on C lovely new bone china coupe shape fy Vigil Boitoi SWEETHEART ROSE Here at lest is the rose pattern you’re been waiting for.

Because tomatoes are among the most popular and widely known home garden crops, huge quantities of tomato plants sell at retail each year. Gardeners often ask how to know which are the best buy. Plants in top condition to set out are well rooted and fresh looking, about 8-10 in. tall, with sturdy stocky stems, and deep green leaves Avoid those with spindly stems and pale scant foliage or those that look weak or, wilted. Also avoid any that show signs of insects or disease. Plants grow three to four inches apart can be removed from the plant bed or flat with more iroots and soil than those grown close together and thus stand transplanting better. Sometimes tomato plants sell in individual containers. They may cost more but often are worth the extra price. Buy tomato plants from a dealer who can tell you what variety they are, and choose varieties recommended for Virginia which are: Homestead, Marglobe and Sunray. The right variety is most important. Wait to buy plants until all danger of frost is past and weather is warm enough for them to thrive. Sometimes plants come on markets too early, and enthusiastic gardners who buy them lose the lot in one night’s frost. Or cold Spring weather delays their growth for weeks. Tomatoes are warm weather plants, easily killed by frost. Those planted when weather is too cold to encourage growth are not likely to produce fruit any earlier than when planted later when the weather has wanned up. It often pays to buy at least two varieties for early and late cropS of .tomatoes.

Thomson, President, Baltimore Bank for Cooperatives, interests me, and I hope you, very much especially since other work prevented my attending the annual membership meeting of the ShenValley Meat Packers. Thomson makes it clear he is not worried over his bank’s investment as it holds first lien, and too sound appraisers have found the .value to be definite there. The encouraging part is drat Shen-Valley is making money, has done so in the past two yean and has made belter than average cooperative progress in its fint years of operation—improvements have been- made in the plant, experience and organization of personnel and management. Thomson stresses die future success of'the organization to depend principally on two things: 1st, membership, loyalty and secondly, more and better sales outlets. Membership loyalty expressed by use of the plant as a place to market some of the livestock produced. Naturally competition in the marketings and i processing field are trying to make it tough. Competition is good in any endeavor, however, I’ve neVer seen any cooperative hold up prices unless it did business itself either ip buying or selling which ever end it is on. Loyal coop members always help the non-loyat however they usually do themselves more good. Most of our wool producers have stuck together and have made United Wool Growers a success. By sticking they have helped themselves most of all arid boosted wool prices received by others.. Rappahannock Poultry producers have benefited themselves (regular producers) pricewise in egg marketings and non-members have received better prices. Let United fall, Rappahannock Poultry Producers Association fold, or Shen-Valley collapse and you’ll see a drop in pieces of each farm commodity which you sell and which they handle. It’s up to the membership of each to do his Part- i LEO L. GERALD BUYS LEWIS MILLS FARM Leo L. Gerald and his wife of Arlington, ; have purchased the Lewis Milk farm on the Hazel River nearCastleton. Mr. Gerald who is employed by the Department of Commerce in Washington, D. C, plats ta remodel the house and move there in the near future. , The sale was made by Ray T. Cannon, Realtor, Castleton.
