SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) ..--.|2.00 PER YEAH THE BjtfDGE BUILDER An old man going a lonely high, ^y.' ,. . , ■ Came at the evening cold and gray. To a chasm vast, and deep, and wide. The old man crossed in the twilight dim, The sullen stream had no fears for him, But he turned when safe on the other side, , And built a bridge to span the tide. "Old Man,” said a fellow pilgrim near, You are wasting your time with building here; You never again will pass this way, Your journey will end with the closing day. You have crossed the chasm deep and wide. Why-build this bridge at eventide? • The builder lifted his old grey head. 1 “Good Friend’ in the way I’ve come.” he said, “There followeth after me to-dayA youth whose feet must pass this way, This stream that has been as naught to me, . To the fair-haired youth might a pitfall be, He too, must cross in the twilight ‘dim, Good Friend, L am building the bridge for him.

BBOBBBgBBBaBOBBOOOOBOt<l Parents Can Help During American Education Week-Nov. 11 - 17, this weeka great effort is being made*all all over our county to get parents and all adults to help in the education of the Nation's Children. In the December issue of the ‘American Childhood,’ which was brought to the News office by a thoughtful member of the Washington High School faculty, we found the article, “Parents CAN help Johnie to Read” most interesting. Many parts of the article were “red penciled” for our convenience. We quote in part; As being able to read well is essential to all learning, parents and all adults are urged to be “profoundly concerned” as to how welt Johnny reads—and what he reads. They should encourage goodreading material for the cheap, the trivial and tlfe truly harmful. Parents, teachers and all adults who have been disturbed by the Publicity given to the statement, “ lohnnv Can’t Read” should do everything in their power to help Tohnnv to read. It can be lots of fun. Read the article in the December issue of American Childhood, If you don’t have the magazine, just call Washington 2851. • • • Who says Johnny can’t read ? The volume of business at the new Belmont Branch Library seems to deny any such accusation. At the end of the second week of operation the branch records showed a total circulation of 4,840 books. During the first week alone, children checked out 1,386 volumes. Miss Roberta Beattie, diildren’s librarian for the branch, said shelves of books for older boys and girls are stripped bare in some spoil. From 2:30 to 5 p. m. each day, the building at Belmont and EUwood Aves. is filled with small fry. “In addition to tha children, one afternoon we had seven dogs,” HnmSSSLHIHl MtCUUO CM D-44 Direct-Drive Chain Saws to be given away free!

QUOTE “ “The reason for increase was to have full time '•lerks.” At present, Mrs. A. M. Vemer is a part time clerk in the Treasurer’s offiee. Weekly Farm Price | , Outlook (This is the way prospects for Virginia farm prices looked to the Virginia Department of Agriculture on Friday. The Department offers it to farmers with the warning that no one can predict prices and be right all the time.) CORN Corn prices in Virginia should hold about where they are for the next week or so. Supplies in commercial areas are enough to satisfy the need, but aren't great enoughs to force the price down. Prices at the close of last week were: Norfolk $1.30-$1.32; Richmond. $1.28; Petersburg, $1.33; and Harrisonburk, for 14% moisture com, $1.45. Substantia] parts of die commercial area crop have been harvested, a little early this year because of increasing use of machinery. > BROILERS Virginia markets should pick up a cent or so to adjust to outside markets that improved some Drag* »f Tmp Q-aUtrU StliptrJ Health B Only fresh stocks of top quality drugs *t thsir peak of potency ere need by our registered pharmacists in filling your prescriptions. FRONT ROYAL SUine^L last week, even though Virginia processors are in the midst of turkey time. Virginia's markets, with a 13% bigger suppy, and a lot of turkeys, too, remained steady last week at around 15V&C. Georgia and North Carolinawith no turkeys to consider - picked up a cent and a half to 17c, while Delmarva got up as high as 18c, 2c more than last week. •We still have about 25% more broilers in die nation than last year, and with stiff competition from pork, beef, and turkey, the outlook isn’ bright for any startling improvements, but the pressure should ease a little at the end of the month - after Thanksgiving turkeys are gone and when Virginia’s local supply slacks up a bit. EGGS After a considerable drop last week, egg prices should hold their own at least through the week. Warm weather has been holding up production, but a cold snap would soon turn tne tables. Last week Richmond A Large eggs were 46c a dozen, 5c below last week; Harrisonburg was 4c lower at 46c; and Roanoke, 3c off at 45c to 48c. Mediums in Virginia were mostly 1 to 2c lower at around 32c. The New York market was 2 to 4c olwer topping at 46c. TURKEYS With Thanksgiving delivery prices already set, turkey' prices should be about steady: this week. Virginia prices: Beltsville, 25V& to 26c; heavy hens, 26c; and heavy toms, 23c to 24c.

Replacement of fabrics is perhaps one of the greatest expenses of the family. There is a need to understand "What is good in textures and designs so the family won’t tjre of the fabrics until it is worn out. Fabrics for curtains come in natural and man made fibers. Cotton marquisette sun rots, but will last 3-4 years before the curtains disintegrate from ironing and sun rot. Some man made fibers will melt ffom heat in much less time. Fiberglass will resist heat but breakage of the glass fibers has not been solved to date. Plastic curtains are sold in narrow widths, come in poor designs, fades readily at windows and cannot be mended. They are a poor choice. Va. Farmers Have Opportunity In Egg Production Says VPI Farmers who are looking around for another source of income might do well to consider commercial ■egg production. Agricultural economists at VPI say Virginia is an egg-deficit state. About 110,000.000 dozen eggs are consumed each year in Virginia, but only about 76.000,000 dozen are produced. If all the eggs produced in Virginia were used in the state, it would still take 2,113,000 more laying chickens to supply the needs. The 45,000 farms in Virginia with under 10 acres of cropland, and the 83,000 with less than 30 acres are extremely limited as far as alternative production opportunities for expanding farm income. Poultry production is one of the few, if not the only, feasible agricultural enterprise which is not greatly dependent on cropland, the economists point out. The vital question is “What can the individual farmer expect to make from a laying flock?” The economists say a farmer coulr rea WATCH REP AIRING QUICK SERVICE COVERSTOWS WATCH SHOP Main Street__FRONTROYAL^_ mmm ■ ■■ ■ ■» ■ tm • ■■■■■ GOLD SEAL CONGOLEUE?] Trod«-Morfc f Central Hardware Co. J. B. Carpenter, Mgr. E. DAVIS ST. CULPEPER, VA. sonably expect an annual income of $5,440 from a well-managed flock of 4,000 birds. They figure 4,000 birds as a “one-man business.” An increase in Virginia's laying flocks would not only benefit producers. It would also result in an expansion of many allied industries. The- additional gross income which would result if Virginia’s laying flocks were increased by 2,113.000 birds, would amount to around $$112,750,000* for the feed industry'; $960,000 for the hatchery industry; $500,000 for the breeding flock industry; and would add over $15,000,000 to farm income, the economists estimate. Sheep Scabies Causes Heavy Losses Yearly Sheep scabies, an ailment that causes the annual loss of thousands of dollars in Virginia, can be controlled. But. says Dr. S. L. Kalison, veterinarian at VPI, control measures have not been used as* they should be, and the incidence of the disease remains about the same year after year. Sheep growers, professional agricultural Workers, and others can help control the disease if they will ■' report immediately any suspected outbreaks to their area veterinarians. Itching or loss of wool in a flock are danger signals. Dr. Kalison says local veterinarians as well as the veterinarians on state and federal regulatory forces ha\ e been alerted and are ready to make concentrated effort to reduce the incidence of the disease. Successful control < measures have been known and used for ates is eradication of scabies posyears, but only if everyone cooper- sible. NEVER NEED CHIMING!
