Prowlers Enter The High School The wave ,of burglaries continues to plague the aiea, as the new high school was the latest to receive prowlers, when it was robbed of approximately $70 in cash last Wednesday night or Thursday morning. Theives broke a window' of a classroom on the back of the building to gain entry. Once inside, they tried to force open the door to the principal’s office without success, so proceeded to break a door glass in the adjoining general ofiire and ransacked files and desks in both offices in apparent search of money which had been paid for books. However only about $7l) w'hich was kept there for change was available. After breaking the door glass, the prowlers neatly swept up fragments and disposed of them. According to Mr. Alvin Atkins, the janitor, the crime was committed afjer 9 p.m„ for he left the building1 at that time with everything in good order.

Two iftore countries, the Republic of Indonesia anc! the Republic of N iger [recently became the 107th and 108th countries, respectively, to be represented in the World of Lionisijn. I We jwould like to pass on to you a quofe from Lion International President, Mr. Finis E. Davis. ‘‘In tny capacity as President of Lions International 1 hereby proclaim t|he month of October, 1960, as the [ period in which the Internarioi^l Association of Lions Clubs will observe its traditional ANNIVERSARY MEMBERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROORAM.” What does this mean to our local clu|i and to the people of Rap pj.hannock County ? It means simply this: for our dub to function on the plane that is standard for Lions everywhere we must enlarge the membership and the support of our club. Rappahannock needs a Service Club and the Service Club needs the participation in that club of interested workers. We hope that many of you who are approached individually, by present Lion members, to join in the work for community improvment, will see fit to lend your time and efforts to a great work. The local Lions need dedicated workers and Rappahannock needs an active Lions Club. L<t s do it— ’tis FUN. By the time a man can afford to lose a golf ball, he can t hit it that far.

Gasoline taxes up 51% In top years In Virginia, car owners pay $1.10 tax on every 10 gallons of gasoline they buy. Docs a tax this high—on a basic commodity like gasoline —really make sense? Gasoline taxes in this state amount to a 50% sales tax—and that’s over five times as high as the tax rate on luxuries like diamonds and mink coats. How did gasoline taxes get so high? Well, since World War 11, there have been three increases in the federal gasoline tax alone. This brought the Federal (ax to 4 cents a gallon, in addition to the state tax of 7 tents a gallon. Looking at it another way, in the last ten years gasoline taxes have skyrocketed 5J%-yet the price of gasoline itself has risen only 5.5% during the same period. $96 a year for gasoline taxes! Gallon by gallon, these taxies add up to a lot of money. Each year the average motor vehicle owner in this state pays $96 for gasoline iaxes alone. That's actually more than the aver* age week’s pay for most people I Your gasoline retailer —who must collect these taxes from you—feels that gasoline taxes are much too high. More and more, thinking people are coming to agree. What do you think? HIGHWAYS AND GASOLINE TAXES Your gasoline retailer, naturally, favors construction of the roads that the motoring public needs. He believes in fair and reasonable taxation for this purpose but feels that taxes on gasoline have now reached unreasonably high levels. He also believes that all special taxes on the motorist should be used only for highway purposes. Yet last year, out of every automobile tax dollar collected by the Federal Government front highway users, more than 40 cents went for non-highway purposes. If these automotive tax revenues were dedicated for highway purposes, there would be no need for the latest increase in the federal gasoline tax.

V.'as it Blacksburg last week in August attending Extension Workers Conference. Upon returning a farmer asked what I learned. After thinking about the varioussessions, what impressed me most was hearing about a flail type field harvester. Lester Deal and 1 had seen this harvester perform during the Institute, on Alfalfa stunted by drought.we were both skeptical as to its practicality. This machine, with windrow attachment. does the job of: a mower, hay conditioner field harvester, and rake all in one operation and according to Easly Smith, Farm Machinery Specialist in Ag. Engineering, isn’t hard to pull. A machine that can replace several pieces of forage making equipment bears watching. * * • • Lyle At Top Also talked to Arden Huff, 4-H Livestock Specialist. He and John Gerkin, County Agent of Clarke, have really been giving the Virginia 4-H Livestock Judging Team a workout.

Many of your friends, 4-H and otherwise, would like to know some of the details about your judging trips. Rural Zoning A most important topic! Seems most counties or incorporated towns tackle the problem too late. Fortunately Rappahannock has citizens of foresight. Since zoning affects all land owners, in towns and on farms, I asked Dr. Donald R. Fessler, Extension Rural Sociologist. during Conference, whether he could come to Rappahannock to discuss the topic. He’ll be glad to appear on the program of any organized group. Will explain zoning.its meaning advantages and pitfalls, how to go about it, etc. Now is your chance to get the correct scoop, straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak. Dr. Kessler is a recognized authortiy on group processes of planning and programming. I will be glad to hear from P.T.A.’s, H. D. Clubs, Civic Clubs etc. For sure lack of knowledge of the details in any group effort breeds distrust, doubt, etc., and gives birth to all sorts of unfounded rumors which inhibit intelligent decisions. - * * * • Virginia Rural Safety Council wants a Safety Program and Plan activated in every Virginia county.

The gasoline ignited from a stove in the basement, used to heat water. As she went down the steps, the explosion of the gasoline caught her. She suffered second degree burns over her body and died within a few hours. Advice For Veterans Four important pieces of advice about getting their checks were offered by the Veterans Administration to veterans who receive checks for any benefits. The first was caution on changing address. Veterans were urged, if they move, to notify both VA and the post office, giving their old and the new address so that the check may be forwarded and not delayed. The second tip was to notify VA if the check is for the wrong amount, instead of cashing it. This would save future trouble both for the veteran and for VA. The third point was to notify VA at once if the check is lost or stolen or otherwise not received at the proper time. Tf that’s done, VA can proceed to trace it without delay. . The final point was advice to keep VA notified of any changes in the size of the veteran’s family. Most benefit checks ae based on the number of dependents in the family, VA said, and the only way it can know of changes is if the veteran notifies them. This is important, VA said, whether the size of the family increases or decreases, so that the checks can be made out for the correct amount. Fred Furbelow says the biggest room in his new house is the room for improvement. You’ll find there's nothing like a good, old-fashioned home-cooked meal not in most homes anyway. Torrential rains beat down Sunday afternoon in the wake of the hurricane which lashed the southern portion of the country. No damage was reported in the area, but streams flowed out of bounds.

Schools Are Open— Drive Witty Caution With some 800,000 children in Virginia returning to school early this month. Dr. W. W. Wilkerfon. Superintendent of Public Instruction and member of the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee, has asked;drivers to watch for them and to give them the right of way at all itimes. even though they may disobey traffic rules. “We must: face the fact that children sometimes fail to stop and think when exposed to traffic,” he said, “which islalhthe more reason that we drivers' must attempt to do some of their thinking for them.” At the same time, he asked parents to outline clearly the dangers of traffic to their; youngsters as they apply to those «foqt, riding bicycles and using school buses. In the last connection, Dr. Wilkerson stressed! the Virginia lavv requiring motorists to come to a full stop when meeting, overtaking or approaching from any direction a school bus which has halted to take on or discharge passengers. “The law requires more than a stop,” ihe continued, “since the motorist must; remain halted until the bus is again in motion and the road clear of children. There is no exception to this rule and failure to observe it can bring a reckless driving charge.’' Raymond L. Wimbish, Supervisor of School Transportation, commented, “This law and the observance motorists have given it undoubtedly made it possible for us to operate a fleet of approximately 4,700 buses for more than four years without a fatality incidental to boarding or leaving a school bus, despite more than 60 million road crossings annually by some 400,000 school children.” Dr. Wilkerson noted that last year Virginia saw 87 young people 15 years of age or younger killed and 4.359 injured in traffic crashes. “While all of these tragedies did not occur in connection with school activities,” he observed, “they give a good indication as to the extreme vulnerability of children in traffic.” Concluding, Dr. Wilkerson asked drivers to be cautious when approaching groups of children waiting at roadsides for buses, to be alert in the vicinities of school and to make every allowance for childish actions which can result in a lifetime of remorse for a driver and a drastically shortened lifetime for a child.

We are entering the period when supplies will fall below last year’s level, and with retailers and chains buying their Thanksgiving supplies, the market should remain firm and perhaps show an increase in the next three to four weeks. According to hatch indications, supply of turkeys marketed in October should be seven per cent lower than last year, and three per cent lower in November. With higher prices and heavy supplies in storage, growers have little reason to hold turkeys that are ready for market. Virginia small type turkeys last week were bringing 24^/4 to 25 cents, with heavy hens and toms 24 to 2514 cents. In North Carolina, heavy hens were 26 cents and toms 24 cents. In the Central States, young hens were 25 to 26 cents, and young toms 22 to 231/2FEEDER CATTLE Due to increased interests on the part of the farmer to market feeders through special sales, total consignments are expected to exceed the 45,000 that were marketed through special sales last fall. Prices in the first sale of yearling feeders held in Richmond last week were better than had been expected. Good pasture and low corn prices may have been influencing factors. However, with increased supply available, and with Western feeder markets already over $4 per hundred below last year, all feeder prices are expected to average $2 to $4 less than last FaH. At the special sale held in Richmond last week, yearling feeder cattle averaging 750 to 975 pounds, good grade, brought $21.50 to $23.50; choice steers, averaging 750 to 900 pounds, were $21.50 to $23; medium steers in the same We Can Supply All Your CULPEPER BUILDING & SUPPLY CORP.

SWEET POTATOES At present, Virginia and Louisiana are the dominant shippers in the sweet potato market. Although total supply is down, there might be a slight increase the next two to three weeks from the present low levels. Storage prospects for quality sweets look good this year.

Louisiana FOB prices were $3 to $3.25. rvosner noimayi Several Kosher holidays are due to be observed over a three-week period beginning later this month and running into October. Of the 12 days in the three-week period, there are seven on which no kosher slaughtering of livestock is permitted, and of the seven, there are six which fall on days of the week when kosher slaughtering is ordinarily conducted. Listed below are the non-slaughtering holidays: Tliurs., Sept. 22 Rosh Hashanah Fri., Sept. 23 Rosh Hashanah Sat., Oct. 1 Yom Kipper Thur., Oct. 6 Feast of Tabernacles Fri., Oct. 7 Feast of Tabernacles Thur., Oct. 13 Shmini Azereth Fri., Oct. 14 Simhas Torah Yom Kippur on Saturday, October 1 will not affect the market for kosher-style livestock since there is never any kosher slaughtering on Saturdays. Several buying interests report they anticipate a very good demand for high choice and prime cattle this week as processors of kosher beef will move a heavier volume of kosher beef into retail channels just prior to the beginning of the holiday period.
