Revercomb of Peola Mills,, have attained a high degree of; success in a joint project, the, operation of Trio Motor Sales and Sinclair Service on Lee Highway near Kamp Washington. A tribute to them was recently published in a newspaper of that vicinity. As the success of men who have spent their youth in the county is of special interest to those who watched them grow up and to friends of their parents, this tribute is here published: “The History of Trio Motor Sales and Sinclair Service established on February 1, 1949 on Lee Highway (2 miles West of Kamp Washington) by the well known and highly regarded brothers Russell, Clyde and Nelson Revercomb has been one of continuing achievement and steady expansion. Trio Motor Sales has played an important role in the continued growth and development of all of Northern Virginia and is fully deserving of the high regard and the complete confidence in which they are held by their large and ever increasing patronage in this V' area. The Sinclair Service Station, opened in August of 1950 adjoining the used Car Sales Lot is one of the most modern and up to date . concerns of its kind in Northern Virginia completely equipped with the latest facilities for expert lubrication, car washing, minor repairs and other famous Sinclair Services including a prompt and courteous Road Service—phone CRescent 3-1066. The former frontage of 200 feet on Lee Highway with a 200 foot depth has recently been enlarged to 477 ft. frontage and, as of now is one of the largest and most attractive business locations between Washington and Richmond—a real credit to Fairfax County as well as to the Revercomb Brothers personally. Bom in Rappahannock County, Virginia the Revercombs have been residents here for the past seven years. Clyde and Nelson are overseas veterans of World War 11 in which both attained the rank of Sergeant and both are members of the VFW and the American Legion in Rappahannock.

Anne Dwyer Writes From Palestine January, 1955 Dear Friends, '“I walked today where Jesus walked.” This song became a reality during the Christmas holidays. Quitf suddenly my permit to enter Gaza came through1 and I was able to spend Christmas with the McRaes there. It was quite an experience to go down on the small C.

United Nations plane along with the “big shots” and freight. There is no airport at Gaza—only a field. It rained that morning but not enough to prevent us from landing. The Gaza strip is mostly sand and it was packed frrmly. The little jeep that I had read about was on the job and had chased all of the sheep and goats from the field so that we could land. I did not see many flocks there and it seemed that the women and children were keeping watch over them. The small Gaza strip is the only part of Palestine that actually remains. As it is a military zone I was rather limited as to picturetaking especially. The hospital compound is lovely and was very colorful with the vegetable gardens as Mrs. M-Rae has so aptly expressed it. The small amount of tillable land was being plowed by donkeys, horses, oxen, camels, and once we saw a donkey-camel team. Camels were numerous «nd they were using them for most everything. Through the efforts ot the U. N., eucaloptus trees have been planted to hold the shifting sands. Also every one of the some 260,000 refugees have some kind of permanent housing this winter as compared to the previous tents. It is a bit warmer in Gaza than in Beirut. Perhaps, it is because it is desert even though it is on the edee. A medical doctor who has been working fo* the U. N. and is now at the Baptist Hospital in Gaza gave us a thorough look at one of the 8 refugee camps. We al■So drove through another one which was larger. They cannot be * described nor imagined. One has to see with his own eyes, smell with his own nose and feel with his own mind and heart. The embroidery centers are rooms with straw mats on the floor where everyone from grandmother to little sister come and embroidery all day. They are paid a small amount according to the amount of thread used. Some of the children could not have been over 8 years though they were smaller and looked older. They worked on delicate patterns or helped their mothers without an error. Everything, is done in mass production there. They stood in long lines for milk (powdered), rations and awaiting their turn in the government clinic. That was the thing that impressed me so fcbout GAZA—the masses of hopless and almost forgotten people. There are so many children that it is necessary to have two shifts of school. One-half of them go to school in the morning and the other half and a new £roup of teachers go in the afternoon. Wepassed through just as they were changing shifts and it was almost impossible to drive down the road. They were every kind, color and description of clothes that more fortunate people did not want Most of them did not fit nor match. But you are interested in what you are doing for these people in Gaza. I went' for the specific purpose of seeing the hospitals as that is where I' hope to spend the rest of my life. The hospital was built 82 years ago to care for 36 patients. At present it has 92 beds. This should give a picture of the crowded conditions. According to Americans standards it is far inferior but it is the best equipped hospital in Gaza. It is the consensus that it is also the best. Patients beg to come there instead of the other hospitals. When it is necessary for a patient to be transferred to another hospital they plead to stay and may even cry. It is primarily a surgical hospital but they have a few beds for medical patients. The dark, crude stones of which it is built show the wear and storms of the years. All of the other buildings arc in keeping with the hospital in appearance and space. The clinic, pharmacy and second-floor nurse’s quarters are connected to the hospital be* 4 breeze-way. At the other side of the compound a small building houses the teachers. In between are the laboratory, X-ray room, school of nursing, kindergarten room and upstairs rooms for doctors. The McRaes live in a large house near the entrance at the main gate. In *the States one would probably feel imprisoned living behind the high, thick walls that surround the compound. There, they are grateful for them. Inside the compound is a beehive of activity. Gaza is unique in that the people are there and they come. The problem becomes that of having too many people. Over 200 children stood outside the gate for hours before the Christmas program. All of the new-comers had to be turned away as there was not room for them in the chapel, neither were there small gifts enough. I tried to get some pictures and was almost trodden. Baptists are the only ones in Gaza that are interested in the children at all. In spite of the human needs, ugliness and drabness of life, there is much beauty in the surroundings. The last dates dung to the trees and an occasional olive could be seen. The oranges were becoming sweeter and more colorful with each succeeding day. Gold fish dozed lazily on the bottom of the fish pond, and columns from the old port of Gaza formed seats while solitary ones stood like sentinels among the towering palms, pines and weeping peppers. The peppers have .small leaves which make them lacy and smpll flowers give way to green berries which become red in due season, i Mrs. McRae is principal of the Baptist School where they have 290 children in kindergarten and the first three grades. They use a rented building in the city of Gaza and have some of the overflow (kindergarten) in one room of the compound. The, w^Ils are almost bulging with little ones and they have turned many away. Parents will come and say, “Please take my child. I do not want him to go to the government school where they teach the Koran.” But there is no room! I I could not get a picture of Samson’s tomb as it w’ould have been necessary to have a police escort and that was not wise. A refugee rag-a-muffin who almost lived in the tomb, directed us through a small yard littered with filth and around the goats and chickens. We peered through a small door into a dark room with a tomb in the center. Across the street stands a school where the temple was located. In the distance one can, see a part of the wilderness where the Children of Israel wandered for 40 years. The people of Gaza are wandering in a wilderness today ahd know not where they are going. Many of them have wandered ‘ not only 40 years but an entire lifetime. In the words of Jesus “They are as sheep without a shepherd.” The cry of the people today might well be, “No man careth for my soul.” (Psalm 142: 4) The name Baptist is a strange, new, foreign word in Gaza. No ohe knows who and what they are. We have just begun. It is amazing what the Lord has been able to do through Dr. and Mrs. J. T. McRae with your praying and giv ing support. There are many advantages in being in Gaza during Christmas. There were many activities and we met many people. Christmas eve night the young people joined their lovely oriental voices in Christmas carols. Carolling is rather new here and not practiced in Beirut. Surely the stars never shone more brightly than that night and I remembered how the angel had appeared unto Joseph and told him to take Mary and the young child and go into Egypt. They must have passed not far from that area. Christmas Day we joined the nurses in singing carols through the hospital. Patients (Continual on PnfO 5) WISE BUYS!

Hi«: BARRON’S TIRE SERVICE 406 North Main Street — Phone 8700 — CULPEPER Turners are due to arrive January 21. After returning from Gaza I went to Jordan and spent the rest of the holidays in the Holy Land proper and saw the mission work there. From one point I could see the Dead Sea, Sea of Galilee, Jordan River and Mt. Hemron. There is a' great difference in Gaza and Jordan but that will have to wait until the next installment. Thank you for all of the nice letters, Christmas Cards and remembrances I April — Beirut, Lebanon — It gets extremely cold in Jordan and at Christmas-time was no exception. It was 4 coat weather. Last summer our Baptist Hospital at Ajlun had a face-lifting in the form of green paint. That along with the newly completed nurse’s home and out-patient clinic made ft look like a new compound. On the highest peak across from the hospital is a most interesting old castle. From that one ppint we tould see , the entire surrounding area of Gilead. How I hope that many of you can see the film which will accompany the fall mission study series—“Balm In Gilead.” Many places will become real, you will come to know a people long neglected and misunderstood. Perhaps, your Bible will have greater meaning as you actually see the dress, customs and people of the Holy Land today. The hospital serves many villages which are both far and near. Sick patients will ride donkeys for hours coming to the hospitals I spent one day at the clinic at Krime in the Jordan River Valley. We left early by jeep. The recent rains made the road worse and more dangerous. Sometimes the driver would get out and throw rocks into the mud holes or just simply take to the fields. Only a 4-wheel-drive jeep could have possibly made the trip. It seemed that we held* to the slanting hills as if by gravity. As we descended it became warmer. By the time we had reached the Jordan Valley we had removed 4 coats and a sweater was too warm. There was a marked dinerence in the people. The extremely hot sun had tanned their skin until they were almost black. Those who go to the clinic regularly told us they could not stay in the sun more , than 10 minutes during the summer. We understood, and sought shady spots on New Year’s Day. On every hand farmers were plowing. They used many kinds of power: donkey, ox, horse, plain cow and camel. There was one combination of donkey and camel which seemed a# little unbalanced. Wooden plows were used exclusively. In many instances it seemed they were working1 the weeds so they could grow better and we wondered where they would plant the crops with all of the weeds and rocks. j With us was a national doctor, student nurse, pharmacist to dispense drugs and the capable driver. We felt that we owed our very lives to the latter. The driver brought a simple, brief, Gospel message and then clinic began. The nurse assisted the doctor in one room and prescriptions were filled in a second. The third room was a mill going full speed and gave much competition. Outside many donkeys waited for wheat to be ground *and women winnowed maize. Not a single person in this village is Christian—-all are Moslem. Lunch' time and one mile further found us eating by > the Jordan River. It was swift and muddy. Even so, Bedouin women and children gracefully Carried large water jars on their heads for this was their only source of water. Even though I had done no physical work an appitizer was not necessary. The hospital dietitiao had prepared our lunch which was as exciting as a surprise package. There were: boiled potatoes, olives “lebone” (much like cream cheese), large Arabic loaves of bread, oranges, greens which we picked along the wayside and imrrted corned beef. Shepherds watched their flocks Which were most often a mixture of goats and sheep. In the distance I heard a shepherd’s flute and we Came near enough one little shepherd boy to hear him singing in his Oriental minor key. So often I was reminded of parables arid Bible characters. It seemed that. I was living 2000 years ago and all of the people and places were walking out of the pages of the Bible. There they were just as I had read and studied about them* There they were—people Wearing loose-fitting garments and with sandled or bare feet. There they were—the fields, rocky, fertile and nothing but ledge. There they were—the vineyards lying flat on The ground while the huge gnaled trunks formed strange patterns. There they were—the village wells or more often the watering places where 'women washed clothes or filled water jars, children played and animals drank. There they were—people, people, people with hearts just as hungry and needy as when Jesus walked among their ancestors. Easter in its outward appearance was very different here. There was a great parade of head scarves all of the way from wool to machinemade Jaces.' They were not new for we had seen them every Sunday since we arrived. The morning congregation was as usual. Among other church groups it was the big feast and much cooking and baking was done. They carried white candles ranging from small to aS large as your upper arm and a yard long. They were decorated with ribbons, flowers and Christmas tree decorations, taken to the church to be blessed and left there burning. Spring has come to Beirut. The last rains have almost ceased and flowers burst from every cranny. The most lovely thing I have beheld are the myriads of lillies of the field for “Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.” Luke 12:27. This is written on the eve of my departure to Gaza, Let me remind % you again that Gaza is a military „ zone and all incoming and outgoing mail is subject to censor. My notes in which! I say a lot of letters will have to be chatty, little nothing. If you should feel thp urge to do something personally for me, spend more time in prayer daily. The four of uS who arrived in October have just completed our , first Arabic exam. 1 felt that I was getting a doctorate what with all of the formality of oral questions, reciting and reading. I am ready .for the third reader, understand more than I can speak and read more than 1 can understand.

Flint Hill A. C. Defeats Middletown; Third Straight Win By Donnie Keyser The A. C.'s defeated Middletown, 19-3, before a near capacity ^ (seating) crowd. Flint Hill had a scoreless 1st inning and then their 4>ig guns opened up. They bombarded the infield and outfield with many well placed hits and there were only 3 hitless innings for the A. C.’s as they ambassed a total of 22 hits for the game. Our manager was able to clear the bench and allow all of our reserves to enter the slugfest. They proved to be very competent replacements by contributing several hits and ,,doing' a very good job in the field as well. Flint Hills pitchers again proved their superority by allowing only 5 hits. Riley gave up 1 hit in 4 innings and McCarty allowed 4 hits in the last 5 frames. I see where the Chiefs have extended their win column by beating the league leaders. L*t this be a gentle reminder that Flint Hill has won their last 3 games with comparative ease knd the fans that come to the game will see two evenly snatched teams perform. The game is going to be a dose one and. if the Chiefs want to halt the A. C.’s winning streak they should bring their best anti-tank gunS. The Flint Hill panzer division is rolling.

The Chiefs, unable to get more than a single for the first 4 innings, suddenly came to life in the fcfth. Buck Clater and Edwin • Scroggins doubled to bring across 2 runs. Oak Grove came back to score 1 run but Rappahannock advanced their lead in the seventh by driving in 6 runs. B. Clater and E. Scroggins singled and Pullen walked. N. Settle and C. Dodson followed with singles. R. Menefee was safe on an error. Newbill Miller then hit his tremendous homer over the left field fence and the runs poured in as the Grovers lost heart. In their frame of the seventh, they attempted a rally, but with the help of relief pitcher Ned Settle, the Chiefs ^put out the fire, after the Grovers had added only 2 runs. -Two final runs were scored in the eighth with George Pullen responsible Tor the scoring hit, a triple. Charles Dodson and Buck Clater led at bat for the Chiefs ' getting 3 for 5 and 3 for 6 respec, tively. H. Dyke, D. Dyke, and D. Bauserman led for the Grovers with 3 for 3, 2 for 3, and 3 for 5, respectively. Rhodes started on the mound for the Grovers and was followed by Bauserman who was subsequently relieved by Hollar who finished the game.

The purpose of the meeting was to elect officers and to plan our summer project and get as much work organized into each meeting as possible. We choose for our project “Meal Preparation” which we hope will teach each member more about cooking. The officers are as following: President, Carolyn Williams; _ Secretary, Maybelle North; Treasurer, Judy Williams; Reporter, Shelby Williams. __ Our leader, Mrs. LaMerle Williams gave us a demonstration on table etiquette and kitchen measurements. Maybelle North gave a demonstration on the correct way to set a table. Each member has to give many demonstrations during the summer meetings. In giving the demonstrations, we feel the beginners have much more opportunity of learning more about “Meal Preparation.” The club’s next meeting will be held in the home of Miss Shelby Williams at Chester Gap. Games were enjoyed by all and then the meeting was adjourned. Shelby Williams 4-H Reporter Washington News Notes The Pony Club visited Mount Vernon, Wednesday afternoon.

Cows fully .50 lower. Hogs .50 Hwer. WHEAT Farmers will have a real choice this week between selling right out of the combine and putting their wheat under loan. With free supplies of soft red winter wheat relatively short, millers are paying pretty close to .support prices less storage. Virginia prices last week were $1.90 to $2.00 a bushel, with some wheat bringing $2.10. .Considering that trade discounts for light garlic are less than government discounts, it might pay a fanner with good quality grain to sell. .Wheat prices probably won’t drop off much this week, despite advancing harvests. Both Richmond and Kansas City markets, which usually drop off when the new crop comes in, advanced last week in the face of the first heavy supplies. Indications .were that the trade will continue to pay prices high enough to keep farm wheat from going under loan through this week anyway. HOGS It looks as if hog prices may be getting close to their peak. The Virginia auction average was $1.30 higher last week, to reach an average price of $22.30, but both Virginia and, Chicago prices broke toward the end of the week. < As a result, chances are hog prices will start out lower this week and average lower for the Week. ' For the next three or four weeks hog prices probably will take some ups and. downs before the general downward trend sets in some time in August. Right now, prospects are not especially good for fall hog; markets. The nation's farmers say they intend to farrow 11 per cent more sows between this June 1 and December 1, which means more hogs coming to market starting in October. This is just a sign post now. ' Corn prices may change farmer intentions considerably. COWS If a man has the option of doing it, now is the time to sell cows. Prices have advanced 70 cents to $1 in-the past three weeks. Last week, Virginia auctions averaged $11 for all cow% with top cows averaging $14. > Grass has been greeijer this spring and culling apparently has been light, but it wouldn’t take much change in this situation to bring cow prices down from their present level. EGGS Egg prices continued their usual seasonal advance last week, reaching 43 to 47 cents a dozen to farmers, with increases of as much as 5 cents a dozen on some markets. Local eggs in New York went as high as 49 cents. if You Have Property For Sale Let Me Help You Sell Phone Spenryville 2462 or write T. J. Pillar, Broker SPERRYVILLE, VA.
