Planned In Conutny Miss Catherine Perry, rural arts specialist from VPI met with a group of women1- to discuss the marketing of home made craft articles, recently in the Rappahannock County Court House. There was a small collection of san^ples of various kinds of hand work, and these were judged and scored by the women, and then each one was appraised by Miss Perry. She pointed out the good points in each sample and made helpful suggestions for improvement, and for packaging. Novelty toys are the items most likely to sell, according to Miss Perry, and she showed example's of the kinds that are sell in? in tourists centers through out Virginia. A ^committee was selected to find a suitable place to hold a bazaar type market about three or four times a year, as it was thought that there would not be enough volume to warrant a full time market. The committee meets at the court house next week to work out an outlet for local talent; and a financial return can be worked out. Ladies who can sew on stuffed tovs or make attractive babv clothes or children’s wear can find a ready market for their goods. This may meet a long felt need for a source of income for the housewife who must stay at home and who desires to increase her familv income. Home Demonstration Clubs are backing the proiect b'it the individual who makes rhe articles will get the benefit. Mrs. Powers will give any interested person more information as to what, how. when and how much. Four hundred head Feeder Stock Sale, Madison Livestock Market, Inc.. Madison Mills, Virginia.

T RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS * PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING . At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia. TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 7~ JOHN M. BARBER JR. and ROBERT E. MANY Editors and Publishers entered u second Class Mail at tna rost Ulfice at waamngton, va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) 12.00 PER YEAR Training Ambulance Personnel “Dear Dr. Steincrohn: Here is my reason for writing to you- It’s possible that any one of us may sometime be the victim of an accident. Usually ambulance personnel are the first to come between us and the doctors. I have been w’on• dering if these men are specially trained in first aid and med*ical ‘principles. I think its important. It seems to me that rough handling right after an accident can sometime mean the difference between life and death. Or am I wrong? ' Signed Mr. Answer: During my first year of practice I was called to see a man who had suffered a heart attack. When the ambulance came I decided to “ride ambulance” with the patient to the hospital. I have never met—before or since—such a speed hungry driver. I kept telling him to slow down, he would nod in affirmative and soon the siren would be wailing and within a short time the speed indicator would be saying 65 and 70. We had two hair- breath, near-misses at intersections-. Since then I have been aware of the importance of the need for special training of ambulance workers. I believe that the first thing drivers need to learn is that arriving at the hospital a few seconds early or late usually does not affect the chances of the patient. However, needless speeding and reckles driving of an ambulance often invite mass mutilation and killing. Most ambulance attendants I have met have been co-operative and helpful. But in many cases, lack of training (no fault of theirs) prevented them from doing as much for the patient as they might. Ambulance service in most communities is provided by one or more of the following agencies; funeral directors, police rescue squads, hospitals or independent operators. In - too many communities there are no provisions for formal » training of personnel. Some do not even get first aid training! You can see, therefore, that the two men who push through the crowd that surrounds the stricken one often know no more than any of the bystanders. • I believe that such personnel should have specialized skill- and knowledge in the care of the sick and injured. Proper care at the right time may be the difference between a live or dead patient when the ambulance pulls up at the hospital door- And remember, it is the ambulance men who first meet the emergencies: asphyxiation, traffic injuries, burns, drownings, falls, heart attacks poisonings and gun and knife wounds. * One of the weak links in our wonderful modern set-up for medical care is untrained ambulance personnel. These men should be taught how to handle acutely ill mental cases, how to manage births, heart attacks, infant asphyxiation and dozens of other emergencies. I believe that it is the job of every community to look into this problem carefully. I know that directors of ambulance sendee will welcome any organized teaching aid that might be provided by local medical societies. This is a good time to use the old slogan: Do It Now! From the Evening Star (Released by The Bell Syndicates, In^igr The above article was sent in to the Washington Rescue Squad by some unknown person. We think this is a very good article as it concerns every member in our squad and ' to the general public, who try to give aid to folks who need help in emergencies. , I expecct most of us are guilty of the above in one way or another. But we try in every way to improve. This is a good time to jftit before the public the functions of our Squad- We are called in an emergency to give firstaid and transportation to the injured and to the sick to a doctor or to a hospital. . Just because we have the right- of-way is no excuse with us for excessive speed (except in case of life or death) and above all the driver of our ambulance is to drive with safety in mind at all times. ♦/These are some of the requirements of our squad: There will be no more than twelve members in this squad at one time. The age limit is 18 years old. With a small iquad we think we can have a more efficient team to work with. If a man misses so many calls without a good excuse, he is automatically suspended and his case is brought up and decided by the squad what will be done. Another and most important rule is that each member must have at least a standard Red Cross card which he will have it renewed every three years. We have men who are driving to Culpeper right now taking a Red Cross First-Aid course. A man cannot stay in the organization who has had the opportunity to this course and does not take it. . , We are, and will be taking refresher courses m our squad from time to time to stay prepared for any emergency. We have in the past been advised by our local and other doct0We aTthe squad want you to know this, and also we are open for anv constructive criticism any of you in the county c£n g ve. After all, if it weren’t for you people right here can gne. a (continued on Page 5) Flint Hill News Several ladies plan to attend the annual district meeting in Woodbridge April 10.

I would not condescend to answer this letter but for the fact thai so many of my friends have called to know why Smoot would \yrite or have some one write such a letter for him. On November 6th, 1956, Smoot came in the office with an Income Tax Statement that I had mailed out some time in October and aj-ked me what it was. I explained to him that it was"a statement of penalty due the State of Virginia for his failure to file his Income Tax Return with the Commis- • sioner of Revenue bv May 1st. 1956. At that time his compliant was that he had filed before May 1st. Mrs. Spalding informs me that -he also went to great length to explain to hint that he had not fled his Income in her office bv May 1st, and that he would have to! nnv a penalty-. In Smoot's letter he states as follows: “The statement • that 1956 Income Taxes are past due on December 5th, 1956. proves to me the kind of people we have elected as our local tax authorities.” Of cours<* the tax payers of this Cpunty know that your State Income Taxes are based on vnur P'evious year's earnings. In other words the 1956 -assessment is for the 1955 Income. The same apnhps to a Merchants License. Their 1956 license is based on their 1955 sales. Also the Statement that I sent out carries the following in large print across the renter of the Statement-STATF INCOME TAX IS FOR INCOMF YEAR 1955-TAX ASSESSMENT YEAR 1956. Of course the unfortunate rhirg back of this is the writer for Smoot who is trying to encourage some people to violate the tax laws of this CommonwealthThe writer and Smoot should ~ef together on the proper way to spell his name. The writer spells it C I a y b e r t and Smoot spells it C 1 a h e r t. Of course this is inmaterial. The last name is II—!-1 1 r inoujh. Yours very truly, Robert L.

Taylor, Agriculture Statistician shows Rappahannock produced 238 acres of orchard grass seed for an average yield of 286 pounds per acre. While Loudon and Fauquier counties produce 70% of Virginia grown orchard grass seed Rappahannock yield indicates her farmers can produce on a competitive basis as our yield was but 9 lbs. below that obtained in Fauquier; within 4 IbsJ of that from Loudon. The average yield reported from Culpeper county was over a hundred pounds less than ours. Rappahannock’s yield could easily be mluch higher and more economical! r produced as farmers reports to date indicate our fertilization s far below the rate giving grea est economic return. Considering our topography, soils and climatic conditions orchard grass seed production is an enterprise that well deserves wider consideration as a cash crop. • * * Alfalfa Weevil Larvae I Alfalfa weevil larvae are hatjehing out from eggs laid on the Rubble last fall and are being found in the tight bud of the new groth in several Virginia counties. While no fields have been inspected n Rappahannock to date growers are advised to do themselves. j Regardless application of an early spray; Dr. Evans, VPI Agricultural Experiment Station, suggests waiting a few days and watching the fields closely.
