We feel this should be $ore thoroughly studied before Additional taxes are considered. Most businesses cut down on noni-essentials when they start running in the red. Are there any non-essentials on the proposed town dmidget that might be eliminated?

Monday, as first she seemed, by, all indications, sure to enta ngle the county in a fringe of rain ahd wind, but then as the night Came brought only medium size winds and slight showers of rain. Though Monday was clear and calm, the county did not lose alertness, fearing that like Hurricane Hazel, lone would come in a hurry, striking ojat of the blue, with a heated fury. The county schools closed at 1 o’clock, allowing the children sufficient time to reach home before the storm would begin. * I Tuesday morning came sunshiny and windy, with but the TV and radio reports telling that the threat of yesterday was no dream, and the gruesome death and destruction totals proving how tunate the county was that Ic took to the sea.

As this budget runs $225 over the $1937 estimated income, methods of making up the deficit were under consideration, including town license tags and property taxes. There was also comment on ’ leaving out of the budget something not absolutely necessary. The budget runs over the 195455 budget due to the inclusion of several projects planned by the council such as the purchase of an oil heater for the town hall ($125); obtaining of permanent Christmas tree ($50); printing colored post cards ($50) ; and more town leaflets (36); as well as the renewing of «he 10-year lease on the town dumping ground ($150.00). A meeting will be held Monday night, with the council ajid treasurer R. L. Brown present, to d»cuss ways of cutting down the bud* get or obtaining more funds. Various reports were heard from the committees: Plans were made, for cleaning die town hall and re* pairing the window shades in the hall, Postmaster W. A. Miller, asked about attaching a box to the slot in the post office door, for mail, approved, and A J. Slaughter will be asked to make the box. It was not learned whether or not it was compulsory to fly a flag over the po6t office, so the issue ' was continued. * Mrs. Vemer pointed out that several tops were missing from the water turn off valves’ holes, and that same might lead to serious injury if one were to catch their foot • in the open hole. The apple trfe, in th^ playground, blown down by the hurricane, had been sawed up, and as the labor bill totaled $5.00, it was suggested that the wood be sold to defray these expenses. Mayor Dorothy Davis reported on her trip to the 50th annual convention of the league of Virginia Municipalities, held last week at Old Point Comfort. Several ideas that she had gained talking to other mayors on how they had brought extra money into the town treasurer included: putting a tax on any contractor’s work, that is in excess of $26,000 ; town tax for cars or'a license tax for attorneys practicing in town. *_ Feast On Ham s Or Fried Chicken At Methodist Dinner A ham or fried chicken dinner is being sponsored by the Washington Methodist Church this Friday night, September 23 at 5 JO p.m. in the fire house.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock Count; Vr#n is m " ^ DIAL WASHINGTON 2861 -v il . ‘ BRUCE S. BOWIE Pubtukt> Cntcred t> second-class mail matter at the post office at Washi'igum, Vifiiiitu SUBSCRIPTION: 'm advance) K.00 a year NO PAPER CARRIED THE STORY No paper carried the story. Can’t understand, why. It was good material—packed with human interest. It happened this way: They had planned the vacation for a ion* 1 time. The children had counted the'days till it began. Then they started off on that long trip they had planned so well. Tlj,e days went quickly—as vacation days do. It was on the way back—only an hour’s drive from home—that the parents began talking about the time they had had. They agreed that it was the most wonderful trip of their lives. They said they would never forget it. They were right They never would forget it Here are four people with everything to live for. And they did live. There was no accident They were among the millions of people who every day drive automobiles without an accident. They were among the millions of motorists who never make headlines. They had a vacation the whole family enjoyed and will always remember. Their happy days had a happy ending. The moral of the story no paper carried? It’s just this: Safety doesn’t make headlines. The results of common-sense driving are evidenced by accidents that never happened—by headlines that were never printed. That’s the big safety story. It’s a story that happens so often it isn’t news to the public. But it is news—and good news —to those it happens to. And it’s the best reason in the world for driving like an expert all the time, every day. Safe drivers make safe highways. , Burr P. Harrison * To Visit Madison * Continuing his periodic visits to communities of the Seventh Congressional District, Representative Burr P. Harrison will tour Madison County next week for informal talks with citizens at the post offices. At 4:15 p.m. on Wednesday rfSeptember 28). he will be at Teola Mills, and then will come into Rappahannock County for a stop at Slate Mills at 4:45 p.m. Travel Back Roads Some day, when we have winished a few more super-highways,’ someone is going to make a lot of friends by advocating the construction of a few thousand miles or narrow, winding dirt roads that lead nowhere in particular—roads that just wander off across the Countryside, up and down hills, across valleys; typical, old. country roads, with all the nltural hazards and charm left in. Such roads will be built for dawdling, for stopping on1 hilltops, for wild-flower admiring, for bird-watching—for all the things the prudent motorist shouldn’t do on a four-lane highway. We still have many country-road drivers who want to see a tree, not a blur of woodland; who want a breath of country air, not highway fumes; who want to stop and look without creating a traffic jam two’ miles long behind them. I recall one back road where we parked one day to watch a wood thrush, and after we had been there half an hour two foxes came into a clearing close by and played like puppies. It’s a grass-grown trail that leads past an old cellar hole and two very old lilac bushes, fragrant remembrance of a farm wife who lived and raised a family there, and is buried there beneath a feathered sandstone mark These back roads lead to something many of us don’t want to forget. Something placidly beautiful, something as natural as a stand of fine old hemlocks. Something that isn’t too much changed by the years or by the things man does to the places where he lives and works. We live in a world of change, often violent and sudden, and it is good for the soul to be.ayvare of things which change only'on their, own tehns and in their own time. —Hal Borland in Nru' York Times Magazine.

EMPLOYERS RATE TEEN-AGERS HIGHLY Despite public concern over today’s teen-agers, recent high school graduates working for New York City firms rate fairly high with 255 employers reporting on their work habits, social attitudes and basic skills in a survey recently made public. The companies graded their young employees generally Higher in personal attributes as integrity, ability to get along with others, desire to develop and progress, fairness, courtesy and neatness, than in the basic skills of reading, writing, arithmetic, grammar and spelling. _ , I Participating companies jwere asked to grade the graduates on the basis of poor, fair, gobd and excellent. The survey riport showed that 76 per cent 'of the 265 employers believed development of better work habits merited increased attention J>f the schools, while 69 per cehll would like to have more attention paid to basic skills and 33 per |cent to social attitudes.

HIGHWAY SAFETY SURVEY COMPLETED Four-lane divided.highways with controlled-access facilities and wide medians are the safest roads in Virginia, a comparative accident study by the State Highway Department disclosed today. The study, which extended from January 1, 1952, through December 31, 1954, covered sections of the following types of four-lane highways in the state: Undivided, divided with a median hot wide enough to protect vehicles making left turns, divided with • median, and controlled-access—the Shirley highway, the state's mosit modern road. Statistics gathered by! the accident study section of the Department’s Traff ice and Plahning Division during the three-year period showed that the accident rate of 180 and the death rate of six persons per 100,000,000 vehicle miles for the Shirley highway were lower than the comparable rates on the other typek of roads studied. Four-lane undivided j highways such as U-S. Route lj were the greatest killers, with a death rate of 19.4 and an accident rate of ?88. However, four-lane highways divided by only a narrow median had the greatest accident rate, 614, and the next highest death rate, 14.8, for every 106,000,000 vehicle miles of travel. On four-lane highways divided by a wide median, but without the grade separations and other features of controlled-access highways, the accident rate was 203 and the death rate 6.2. The average death and accident rates on rural highways in the period of the study were 9.7 and 348, respectively. J. P. Mills, Jr., 'Traffic and Planning engineer, said the majority of accidents on:roads where traffic is separated by medians occur at crossovers and; at intersections. He listed excessive speed and driver inattention as the chief causes of such accidents. In some instances, Mills pointed out, roads had to be four-lane to carry heavy traffic although sufficient right of wa could not be obtained, without, heavy property damage, to provide wide medians, i The report emphasijsed the need for: (1) more miles of controlledaccess highways, (2) construction . of left turns and right turn deceleration lanes on existing fourlane highways with wide medians,, and (3) sufficient ffinds to purchase adequate right of way for wide medians on new projects, especially at intersections. The accident study was confined to four-lane highways and did not compare the death and accident rates on other types of roads in the state. Traffic engineers said the study showed that on four-lane highways PITTS' DRIVE-IN THEATRE FRONT ROYAL On Straaburg Road THUR. - FRI., SEPT. 22 - 23 DOUBLE FEATURE HUMPHREY BOGART “DEADLINE, UJ5A” GLORIA JEAN “RIVER GANG" SATURDAY, SEPT. 24 JOEL McCREA YVONNE DeCARLO “BORDER RIVER" (Color by T«chnicolor) SUN. .

My Trip \ To Michigan By Barbara Gentiy Some days stand apart from others for happiness, beauty and freedom of spirit. Such were the days we spent in Michigan during late August and early September. The first thrill of this journey was the plane. There are many ways to view flying; joyously, with out fear, just enjoying the wonder of it full of forebadings or grimly.. I experienced them all in reverse order, got rid of each negative attitude until I had to admit that if God was able to presume me on the earth. He was able to presume me any where, so I rested quietly within my mind as I fastened my seat belt and listened to the roar of four stout motors. In minutes'I could see the lights were below us—we were airborne. If 1 had expected any “violent sensations of any kind, I was disappointed, and we flew smoothly to Willow Run. the airport for Detroit. The first week end was spent with friends in Dearborn. What fun, to talk, over the coffee cups with congenial company. It was three a.m. when everyone finally went to bed, and this was the pattern for almost the whole vacation. The next few days were spent in visiting relatives in Flint. There was a tiny new neice to see and all the little nephews as well as the grown folks. Everyone prepared a feast for us and we drank gallons of coffee. - One day we went straight across the state to visit a cousin and friends in Grand Haven. On TINKER TO EVERS TO CHANCE , i.Jhii famous double-play trio baa become a aymbol of teamwork. Today’s medical care team is deserrinf of a similar reputation, because tbe physician, the pharmacist, and the modern hospital pool their combined talents to bring you the highest standard of health ser'I rice the world has ever known. Your pharmacist is proud to belong to this winning team in the fight against disease. His training and experience are at your disposal. Slutuerii Sb'utp Stogie I Front Royal the way we stopped in Holland, where many acres of tulips bloom each May, and a festival is held. We saw a man carving out wooden shoes by hand, (only the inside is bored out with a simple angerlike tool and the rest is hand yvork.) Many beautiful deer skiiV jackets and gloves were on display as well as the usual souvenirs. At the beach in Grand Haven is a large park for picnics and swimming. The beach is white and wide, the water, blue and ice cold. We saw the “ice breaker” ship, the “woodbine” that keeps the channels open for shipping in the winter and keeps the bouys in repair in summer. The sailors jvere painting a large orange bouy that afternoon. After gathering a few rocks for our collection, we were glad to get back to the house because of the cool breeze from the lake. Joyce, our cousin, had some old pictures of our grandmother and great grandmother Taylor, who came from Scotland about 80 years ago. We all tried to recall the stories we had heard from grandmother of her early days in America and so another afternoon was filed away among our pleasant memories. r •_J WnllC Visaing ncci«, • we happened to mention our rock collecting and lo,-she is a rock hound” too. Then we did have fun looking at her treasures, dipping them in water so that the colors in the “conglomerates” would show up better. Most of hen hfd been found along Frances "Bay near Lake Michigan. They are relics of many ages ago when that part of the country was covered with a warmer tropic sea. They «re older than the oldest antiques and full of mystery and beauty. That night we looked at the place where a tornado tore the land two years ago. twisted off trees were still visible, but all the homes were new and then we started “up north.” Everyone goes “up north" on every holiday- or end. There 9 tbeland of pine fishing, boating, swimming, loafing. There was quite a lot of traffic but we TiTrived at the cabin owned by ourhosts, the Grenmark family. In the morning, Lelia and I could hardly wait to get down to the beach (on Lake Huron). We tried the water—it was just right. Then we started to look for rocks for our collection and there were so many beauties, we could do nothing but collect them. At noon, we went to visit Peggy, my sister. She was helping a neighbor ‘ pick pickles” for the pickle factory. There were only 12 rows leftrn the field so we offered to help. The cucumbers are graded as number 1 through 4; the ones beipg the smallest., the fours measured by holding the thumb and forefinger around them, if they don t totich, that cucumber , is too large for commercial canning, and so is discarded. The-farmer’s wife, Mrs. 1. P. moot $c (Ho. Hardware and Lumber BUILDING MATERIAL of all kinds v ' FARM EQUIPMENT SHERWIN-WILLIAMS PAINTS ; PHONE T» WARRENTON, VIRGINIA Lee, gave us' lunch with strong black tea and so we were! able to finish the “patch” and go homo with Peggy. The next day we took a trip about 50 miles farther “up north.” On the way we| caught glimpses of the great northern river, the An Sable. There was an annual canoe race in progress, that lasted for about 24 hours as it was 240 miles long from Grayling to Oscoda, and a strenous course too. There is much training and preparation made for the race, some of the teams going over the course five or six times during the summer. The canoests wear shorts and cover their bare backs and arms with thick grease for protection from sun and insects. Som< appear almost devoured by gnats which bite viciously. The An Sable is wide and intensly blue, great trees grow* down to its banks and it is the source of electric power for much of the state. High above the river is a great monument to the lumbermen of early Michigan days. A huge bronze statue of three woodsmen, one with a “peavy” or cant book, one with a compass and one with crosscut saw. There is > small park here and everyone takes pictures before the monument. About lunch time, we arrived at the lake shore home of Charles and Arlene Loppens, a pine cabin on the beach. It was their last week end there as Charles is a school principal and must return to his school near Detroit. We all enjoyed the cool water and hot sun and then the “rock hound’’ within us could resist no longer, so we had to search for more rocks. There is such a variety of the fossilized coral and sea life from the tropical age strung along the beaches. Arlene is making a rock garden in front of her cabin so the largest specimens were left with her and we crowded all we could into a cigar box and tied its bulging cover down with a string. Lelia found some interesting driftwood “for flower arrangements.” she says. The water, the sun, the fresh air made us all ravenous, and Arlene’s roast beef dinner was ex-, . cellent, so we all fejt.il wfs a most satisfying day. Coffee was served from an ornate old percolator thit came from a rummage sale for 50c. We made it full twice and drank it all, and congratulated Arlene on her good coffee and the big bargain she had found years ago. Peggy and Georg#"nave a grove of ancient pine trees and the branches are so thick thaj( they shut out much of the daylight^so that it is almost twilight ail„jUy long. The sun beams sift jJhpough like gold dust and the needles lie thick, soft and deep as a carpet. Deer tracks were seen everywhere. Here and there we saw a little hump and when we dug into it, found a white tender mushroom. We gathered about a quart of tfiem and took them to the Grenmarks. They did not want to eat them for fear they were “toadstools” so we had the whole dish full. Promising eacn ornrr ana c\civ one else we would not pick up even one more rock, we took one last brisk swim in Lake Huron and returned to Flint. It appears as if all our time was spent in eating, but we toured the site of the new buildings of the University of Michigan, to be located in a new cultural center in Flint. We saw the Buick, Chevrolet, A C Spark Plug factories a well as some smaller ones, visited the fanners market, full of the brightest colored flowers and vegetables imaginable, visited friends and relatives, went shopping in Flint and Detroit and finally boarded the plane for Washington, D. C. This time we w’ere sold on flying and, would sell it to everyone else, if we could. On the plane coming home, we met a young man who had searched for uranium in Montana all summer. He showed us some placer gold he had found, and so we were off on a discussion of rocks and minerals. “Rock hounds” are found just anywhere. We were afraid our luggage was going to be too heavy for the .plane as there is a limit on weight. It passed the weight test safely and so we have lots of new coral specimens. Michigan is known as the “water wonderland,”' and one sees sparkling lakes at most any turn in the road. Though we missed the mountains, we were greatly impressed by the sky. There is so very much sky when no mountains interfere with the view. The moon comes up in splendor, seemingly right out of the ground. The weather man was on his best behaviour and resisted bringing on any fall weather until September 7 when he turned on a temperature of 45°. That is when we decided it was time to start for the South. It was 83° when we reached Washington that evening.

Government Has Right To Measure Wheat; US. Court The United States District Court for the District of Maryland has upheld the right of county Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation committee representatives to enter a farm and make a wheat acreage measurement for the purpose of determining compliance -with the farm’s wheat acreage al lotment when marketing quotas are in effect. The court held that measurement is necessary to determine 'whether the wheat acreage on the farm is within the farm marketing quota, and whether 16 acres or less of wheat have been planted on the farm, for which there are special provisions and exemptions. In disposing of the case the court ruled that constitutional rights were not infringed upon by the required measurement of wheat SAVE oh SILVERPLATING dwrifhJL.

When her health was better, she had made an annual visit to friends in the county. She was esteemed by all who knew hen Mr. and Mrs. A. H.

C. . j Social Security News A considerable number of widows, young children, and aged parents of working people who died between June 1940 and September 1950 have failed to claim the monthly benefits payable to them under 1954 change in the social security law, knnouncel Robert E. Parsons, Assistant Manager of the Alexandria Social Security Office. Those who do not Surviving Mrs. Atkins are her 3 children, Mrs. Lavinia Pickens of Arlington; Mrs. Dorothy Barber of Cleveland, Ohio, and Allie Atkins of Solon, Ohio. Also by 5 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren. Active pallbearers at the service were E. B. Cary, Vs R. Updike, Paul Walker, Willie Payne and Mahlon Ramey. Those from a distance that came to the funeral were Mrs. Atkins’ children and their families; Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Fogarty, Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Baker of Arlington; Mr. and Mrs. Ennis Pullen and 2 daughters and Mr. and Mrs. Otis Atkins and others of Luray. Mrs. Atkins was a loyal member of the Washington Baptist Church. v The family would like to express their appreciation for the cards, flowers and other expressions of sympathy during their bereavement. apply for their benefits before October 1, hes pointed out, will not be able to receive benefits for all the months back to September 1954, the effective date of the new provision in the law. Under this provision, it is now possible to pay monthly social security benefits to the qualified survivors of workers who died between June 1940 and September 1950 if the deceased wage earner had credit for as little as a year and a half of work under social security. The families of many of these workers applied for benefits at the time of the family breadwinner’s death, Mr. Parsons said, but were told that they could not receive payments because under the law, as it then stood,* the worker had not earned enough social security credit to provide survivors benefits for his family. Where a claim for social security benefits is filled within 12 months of the time a beneficiary if first eligible, his payments can be made to him retroactively for the whole period, Mr. Parsons pointed out. But if a claim is delayed for more than 12 months, benefits for some months will be lost. He therefore urged the survivors of workers who died between June 1940 and September 1950 to get in touch with their nearest social security offices before October I, 1955. Qualified claimants who apply before that date can be paid benefits back to September 1954. TO THE VOTERS Various people have suggested that I reply to an unsigned form letter, recently circulated in the county, telling people how they should vote. 1. I know of no voter who took an oath or signed a pledge before voting in the Primary. Therefore no one need vote according to the orders or dictates of a political boss. 2. The ballot is a secret ballot. No one can tell ifbw anyone votes. No one has a right to know. Each voter marks the ballot as he chooses, then folds and places the ballot in the box himself. , 3. Loyalty oaths were rejected by the .South at the '52 Democratic Convention- No Southern leader of any stature believes in a loyalty oath—even for the convention delegates. Intelligent men will not promise to help elect a candidate before they know who that candidate is. Yet the demand for blind obedience is now made tooths people of this county. 4. There are no political issues in this local campaign —but principles are important. Free elections are the very foundation of our government. Democracy must have a free choice. We have no stomach for dictators who tell us how to vote. 5. In a free country every citizen can be "his own man’s man and speak the truth as he sees it. We can vote to suit ourselves-1 would suggest that every voter put the interests of the county above purely personal or selfish considerations, ana thus vote for the candidate he honestly and fairly believes to be the better qualified. In that way the interests of all’the people will be best served. . ' ; <4 ALFRED M. HICKMAN, i ; Candidate for Commonwealth’s Attorney r Market ‘OK’ Parkway Chevrolet, inc, front royal, v*.

Woodville Home Demonstration dub riWt with Mrs. R.^ M. Johnson, Friday. Miss Nellie Johnson, craft leader, gave the demonstration on “Handmade Gifts.” An efficient kitchen layout will mean much less work for the often overworked farm housewife. The specialists list three points to consider i n kitchen arrangements : 1' Counters are handy labor savers. There should be one next to the opening side of the refrigerator door, one on at least one * side of the kitchen range, and a counter or drainboard at one side of the sink. The sink, range, retngcraior ' and their counters should be concentrated in one location. Traffic should not flow through the “work triangle.” Sinks and counter areas should be lighted by direct window light. t Gabinets should not extend into •corners along side the end of the range or refrigerator. ' A direct route should extend from the kitchen to the dining and service areas. Doors in the kitchen corners take up valuable space that could be better used for cabinets. A properly hung door will not interfere with free use of any kitchen equipment. The housewife should always remember that good arrangement of equipment, utensils and suitable fools will save available time and motion in the kitchen and will pag off » has Wckarhss at the end of the day.

STUDY BEING MADE ON AUTOMOBILE CRASH VICTMS Department of Health and the Virginia State Police have been aiding in a new approach to the problem of traffic injuries and Recent announcements from automobile manufacturers indicate immediate practical results, according. to Automotive Crash Injury Research, a project of Cornell University Medical School, which , is conducting the programs j Chief object of research is' to provide reliable information Op specific causes of injuries to occupants of passenger cars involved in crashes to be used as a basis for As a result of information thered in participating states, three leading automobile manufacturers have engineered and tested in their laboratories new safety designs for 1956 models which ate specifically designed to reduce the frequency and severity of injuijiData produced by this interstate project has identified the mopt frequent causes of injury as ejection from doors which burst open or contact with the instrument panel, windshield, steering wheel Virginia physicians, the Virginia designing automobiles offer better protection.

(More recently, one of these announced a door latch designed to prevent doors opening under impact, a steering wheel designed -to absorb impact energy and. optional padding for instrument panels. Research and fact finding has taken place of late in Augusta, Spotsylvania and Stafford .counties and is now in progress in the Danville, Pittsylvania, and Halifax area. According to Governor Thomas B. Stanley, the accumulation of this important data would not have been possible without the co-operation of Virginia physicians, the Virginia Department of Health, the Virginia State Police and hospital authorities of the State. During a 12-year period of studying causes of injury in li^ht planes, Cornell conclusively demonstrated that if structures which occupants strike are properly engineered, many injuries could be eliminated or moderated. As a result, a dual concept of protection was developed; First, a redesign , of the passenger compartment to create an “island of safety” for occupants and, second, the “packaging” f>i occupants by restraining devices. - ' A. C.'s Take Second Of 7-Game Series The 12-lf final score chalked up in the A.C.’s-Chiefs game Sunday afternoon on the Flint Hill diamond, tells in itself the story of a close game, which could have gone either way, but for the heartbreaking errors. i The Chiefs surged ahead early in the game, the score tied, then the Chiefs moved ahead again, gaining steadily more leeway. In their frame of the sixth, they brought in 3 runs, making the score 9-4, a' 5 run margin in jthe Chiefs’ favor. In their half of the sixth, however, the A.C.’s brought in 6 runs on 4 hits and 3 errors. Errors rung the death bell on the Chiefs’ hope for a victory. I With the score standing 10-9, A.C.’s favor, the teams entered the eighth. The Chiefs gained 1 run on a walk and 3 singles. The A.C.s counterattacked with 2 runs for 3 hits and an eVror. One lone run scored by the Chiefs in the ninth gave them their final tally, 1 short of tfie.A.G.’$ 12 runs. > Pickrell went all the way for the Flint Hill team. Bobby Swindler started for the Chiefs, and was relieved in the eighth by Ned Settle, who finished the game.

Explains Polio Vaccination Assistance Act Under the Poliomyelitis Vaccination Assistance Act of 1955 the State of Virginia will receive $879,884; of this, $111,500 is designated for expenses in connection with distribution and use and $768,384 is available for the purchase of vaccine. Funds paid to the state from its allotment under this appropriation are available for use by the state only through February 14, 1956. On September 14, 1955, the Poliomyelitis Advisory Committee to the State Health Department (which is the Poliomyelitis Committee of the Medical Society of Virginia) met to consider the use, distribution, and administration of vaccine made available to the state under the terms of this Act of Congress. The Committee advised that the State Department of Health be the official agency to administer the Salk Vaccine and further designated the State Health Department as the sole agency for the distribution of the in Virffims. It is under stood by all that there is no means test to be used in distributing the vaccine. The Committee unanimously adopted motions that patients seen in private practice who are unable (o pay, will receive the vaccine free of charge. Those seen in private practice who are able to pay, will not pay for the vaccine but will pay for administration. The private physician agrees to submit data necessary to make reports to the Public Health Service and to limit vaccine administration to the priority group designated at the time (at present, 5-9 years). The Committee advised that provision be made for Public Health Clinics for those unable to pay who would not be reached by the private physicians and that compensation be made to those physicians who would volunteer to work in these clinics. A minimum fee of $10.00 was decided upon and the schedule of pay be at the rate of $10.00 per hour or fraction thereof. Under the program, the State Health Department will purchase the vaccine as it becomes available and will accumulate the same in the central office. When there is an amount sufficient to warrant distribution, it will be sent to the local health departments on a population basis. It must be gotten into all children in the age group 5-9 years that it is possible to vaccinate. Attention will have to be paid to expiration dates and under no circumstances should vaccine be allowed to go down the' drain because it was not used. The Director of the Division of Local Health Services will soon call a meeting to discuss fully the program to be followed almost immediately in putting into operation the administration of poliomyelitis vaccine obtained through the allotment to the State of Virginia under the Poliomyelitis Vaccination Assistance Act of 1955. 60 ATTEND FELLOWSHIP SUPPER IN FLINT HILL The Young Women’s Bible class served a fellowship supper at the Methodist Church, Friday night. About 60 people, adult members of the church school came and ate old country ham, candied sweet potatoes, green beans, hot rolls, sliced tomatoes, potato salad, ice cream and cake, iced tea and hot coffee. The proceeds from the supper were given to H. S. Barksdale, church treasurer, to be applied to the building fund. Mrs. Manuel Pullen is president of the class and Mrs. Robert Clatterbuck is the treasurer. -^MRS. CRANE—Froa* Pag* » Theodore Schaefer, choir director and organist in the National Presbyterian Church. She sang regularly in this choir and for a number of civic organizations and clubs in Washington.

He and Jo Lllen sang together at the Sophomore graduation exercises at Madison, and gave a combined recital their Senior year. Among the many organizations for which they sang together are: The Shriner’s in Richmond, Music Club in Staunton, and civic organizations in Front Royal, Harrisonburg, Elkton and Roanoke.

Your face is tba front of your head where you eat and make faces. Your neck is what* keeps your head out of your collar. It’s hard to keep clean. Your shoulders are sort of shelfs where you hook your suspenders on thou. “Your stummick is something ' that if you do not eat often , enough it hurts, and spinach don’t help none. Your spine is a long bone in your back that keeps you from folding: up. Your hack is aL ' ways behind you no matter how quick you turn around. Your arms you got have to pitch with and so you can reach the butter. Your Angers stick out of your hands so you can throw a curve and add up rithmatick. Your legs is what if you have not got two of, you cannot get to first base.' Your feet are what you run - on, your toes are what always get stubbed.
