No other portions of the route will b$ discussed at the hearing, engineers said. Also, only one location is to be proposed. This location would widen and straighten the route, take through traffic out of Washington courthouse,and provide an improved intersection of US 211-522 at Massies Corner. Washington V. F. D.

Airlie House, the unique conference center near Warrenton, Va., was the scene of a regional meeting attended by local welfare superintendent Elizabeth Buntin this past Tuesday. The meeting, attended by superintendents of public welfare from all the northern localities of the state was held for the purpose of learning the details involved in the operation of the new public assistance program, Medical Assistance for the Aged, which will become effective January 1, 1964. This program is provided for in legislation enancted by the General Assembly at its 1962 session. Its purpose is to provide medical assistance to lowincome persons sixty-five years of age or over who generally have sufficient income to meet their needs except for medical care. It is designed to provide essential medical, dental, and hospital care so that elderly people can take care of themselves to the greatest possible extent in their declining years. The present road has only an 18-foot pavement. The improvement would provide a 24-foot pavement and wide shoulders. •) A transcript of the proceedings of the hearing will be made for study before the Highway Commission makes a final decision on the project. Town Sponsors Decoration Contest A Christmas door decorating contest is being sponsored by the Town Council in Washington, Virginia this year to encourage residents to beautify the town and stress safety in home decorating for the holidays. In years past the Town Council and Rappahannock Garden Club have sponsored like activities with spectacular success. Last year the only decorating contest in the county was sponsored by the Ruritan Club in Amissville. The doors will be judged on Christmas night beginning at 7:30 p.m. and all users of the Town Water supply are eligible to participate. Thers will be token prizes presented to first, second and third place winners. It has been suggested that in addition to the d o o r decorations electric candles be placed in a window of each house. This was promoted in Richmond last year and was considered most effective. The town Christmas tree will be decorated on Sunday afternoon Dec. 22 and will be lighted that night. Suggestions and neip rrom tne citizenry Is solicited and work will start after 1:00 p.nri. The theme of the decorating contest will be "A Merry Safe Christmas". Safety precautions are ' stressed more than usual due to the long period of dry weather which has affected the 'condition of natural plant material that is used in suchabuiv 'dance for home decoration. Fire and Rescue Squad Notes The Rappahannock Rescue Squad answered a call to an automobile accident Sunday morning, December 8th. No one was found in the burning car. On Monday, December 9th Willie Hunter was taken to Newton Baker Hospital in Martinsburg, West Virginia.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS1 PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 675-3349 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered m 2nd Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) . $250 PER YEAR Letter To Editor Dear Mrs. Latham: Last Wednesday, Dec. 4, in the company of Mr. S. E. Hening, fellow Sperryville resident, I paid my first visit to the Rappahannock Public Library. Herewith are may impressions of the Library and the service it is prepared to render the citizens of the County. I was pleased to find the Library so attractively housed and so competently and agreeable staffed and with a fastgrowing collection of books for a wide variety of tastes. As is quite generally known, much has been done and is being done by the energetic sparkplug of the movement for the establishment of a Rappahannock Public Library, Mrs. B.M.Miller. Others have rendered valuable assistance and are continuing to do so. The Library is fortunate in having the volunteer services of the Misses Stambaugh, both of whom have the know-how of cataloguing and Issuing and receiving back the books--on the open days: Wednesdays 25 p.m. and Saturdays 10 a.m. — noon. During the more than an hour I was in the Library only one person, a boy took advantage of the free service. I had expected to see several persons withdrawing or returning books on such a weather-fine afternoon. Can I be wrong in assuming that the Library has yet to become recognized as a vital factor in the life of Rappahannock? True, the Library is young and, because it must be operated by a volunteer staff, is open only a few hours twice a week, it can hardly expect a large patronage yet awile. But here in a nice building in the heart of Washington C.H. are already many desirable books. - fiction and non-fiction - ready to give readers many hours of enjoyment and/or enlightenment. The way to make your free Rappahannock Public Library a success is not only to donate to it worthwhile books but to also make use of its with The Latest Masterpieces of Fact and Fiction Plus Our Usual Large Selection of Children's Books.

If any fellow citizen wishes to borrow mv copy of "The Joys of Reading^ it is available on loan — as an incentive to the making of greater use of the County’s free Library by more fellow citizens. Clarence Wagener Tips Given For Christmas Safety Glass Christmas tree ornaments definitely are not recommended for baby's diet this holiday season. Absurd statement? Of coursei But not as absurd as you might think. Christmas is a time of bright little lights on a tree in the parlor, of shiny glass ornaments and decorations, of filmy spun glass filaments, of toys that sometimes have sharp, rough edges, of lots of candy, nuts and other rich edibles. * These are a part of Christmas, and no one is suggesting there's anything wrong about it. The American Medical Association at this holiday season, however, points out once again that there are safety hazards at the Christmas season that aren't usually encountered during the rest of the year. A few simple pre cautions can help insure a safe Christmas for your house hold. ♦Check over your old strings of Christmas tree lights and discard those that are worn or brittle. If there are very small children around your house, discard burnt-out bulbs with caution, so that baby can’t get-at .them. ♦Keep the glass ornaments and filmy glass “angel hair" out of babyrs reach. The ornaments crumble readily into sharp slivers. ♦Make absolutely certain that no toys coated with lead-based paint are included in Santa’s pack. Lead poisoning is a danger should the child chew on the toy. Most manufacturers now avoid dangerous toys with a minim um of sharp, rough edges, toys that won't burn quickly if flicked through a candle flame, toys that are large enough so that baby can’t swallow them. •Electrical toys, such as trains, also should be selected with safety in mind. Is the wiring intact and strong, or is it loose and flimsy? ♦Air rifles, sling shots, archpainty. •Select ery sets and other missile throwing toys are obviously dangerous if carelessly used. Set up target ranges and make certain the youngster is taught to use the toy properly and safely. This list could be continued, but you can make your own. The prime objective of an article such as this one is to remind parents that in the bustle and excitement of Christmas, accidents can happen. Certainly no one wants to spoil the holiday with undue worry. Make your plans for a safe Christmas,andthenenjoy it to the hilt. Barrels from 2563 Civil War rifles form a protective fence around U. S. Grant's former home in Missouri. Panther Tales Bjr Linda Rowzic Besides the mounting an ticipation of the approaching Christmas vacation at Rappahannock County High School, other nice things are adding to the holiday spirit. Varsity jackets have arrived and though it meant digging down in the old jeans, they have a special significance and are worn with pride. To be eligible for a jacket, a student must participate in a school sport or'be connected with sports in the capacity of manager, cheerleader, etc. The Juniors are on cloud nine, for their class rings are here, and that endless period of patient (?) waiting is over. ■Makes them feel one step closer to that diploma next year,too. After stopping long enough to admire and appreciate their rings, these Jolly Juniors rush into one of their business ventures for this year (they are raising funds for sponsoring the annual Junior-Senior Prom near the end of school). This time it is boxed candy they are selling, and a more delectible treat cannot be found. These cocoanut almond, mint chocolates and walnut fudge are wonderful and make excellent gifts for Christmas. I’m sure one of them will contact you. “Deck the Halls and “Silent Night ring through the corridors as the choir practices these and many more Yuletide songs in readiness for their Christmas pro gram. Mrs. Melton directs the choral group. The annual Senior holiday dance will be held on December 21 in the Bchool auditorium from 8 untii 12 -ml4f night. This dance is for students and their dates only. Well, it won't be long until the 20th when our school vacation begins, so i’ll tell you more next year. Happy Holiday!

WHITE & CO. “TheWhite Shop” CULPEPER VIRGINIA Post Office Department Advises Care in Addressing Christmas Mail If you were a writer you could find in the dead letter files of. the postal service rich niaterial8 for any sort of creative effort: a romantic tale, a murder mystery, a story of international intrigue, a human interest yarn, a treatise on governmental efficiency and economy, or a discourse on parental neglect. This is especially so at Christmas time, when the number of letters and packages which can neither be delivered or returned is several times the shocking figure for the other months of the year. Why is it that thousands of letters'with their infinite variety of messages fail every day to accomplish their missions in life? There are many reasons, some the result of misunderstandings, others the consequence of carelessness. Sometimes mail is sent on its way with no address at all. Infrequently, though too often, the stamps are left off and the addressee fails to respond to the notice that mail is being held for postage. Occasionally, the sender transposes the number in a street address. In other instances, the ill- fated letter is directed to the wrong post of flee. Once In a while the addressee moves and falls to leave a forwarding address. The most frequent error is that of furnishing insufficient address and omitting the return address. The postal service is anxious to deliver all mail as accurately and as expeditiously as possible. Making im' mediate delivery is less expensive, less troublesome ter everyone concerned, and quite in harmony with the desires of the Post Office Department to give good Service. Someone has calculated that 10 pieces of proper mail can be handled in less time than is required to process one piece of dead letter mail, if to the time and money losses which dead letter mail imposes upon the postal service one adds the disappointments and heartaches which the sendi er and the intended receiver experience, the total cost to all concerned becomes incalculable. , It Is logical philosophy that If a letter is worth preparation, it is also worth delivery. Particularly is this so if the letter contains a gift, or is sent by air mail, or has some other special qualities. Much of the problem that post otfices now have iwith dead letter mail would not exist if the public would exercise these simple precautions: l(Make the address complete and accurate. 2.Supply a complete return address. 3. Be sure that all writing on the envelope is legible. 4. Check mail before depositing it to see that the proper postage is affixed.

The demand for loans may run into the millions of dollars in the 76 Virginia counties designated for emergency loan assistance by Secretary of Agriculture Orville L. Freeman. Applications for loans may be made at the FHA county office at 608 South Main Street in Culpeper.

He must also have suitable experience and reasonable prospects for success in the farming operations he plans to carry on with the loan.

Ford haw choeen the most rugged testing program cars have ever faced . . . full-scale open competition on the rally and racing circuits of the world. This is the dramatic way to show that Fords have changed . . . and the sure way to be certain they keep on changing. Changed? Just look at the record: STOCK CM MCMC: 2-40-1 margin for Ford Ford is king of NASCAR competition end Ford Motor Company has the NASCAR Achievement Award to prove it In the '63 season, special Ford entries won every single race of 500 miles or longer, scored nearly twice as many points as any other make. 500-mile races are the ultimate test of inherent durability and dependability. In two other major stock car racing associations I MCA and MARC, Ford drivers have wrapped up the 1963 championships. SPORTS CM ROM RACING: Ford VS power it the new king Here the Cobra with its special Fairlane engine emerged as the overwhelming leader in one short year. Cobra won the coveted Manufacturer’s Trophy in SCCA Class A Production competition by so wide a margin no other cars— U.S. or foreign—were even in sight. And in the two major tests this fall, the Laguna Sees and Riverside races, the new King Cobras dusted off the top "unlimited” cars from all over the world. RALLY COMPETITION: Manufacturer’s Championship Products of Ford Motor Company and its world-wide affiliates won ttie 1963 Manufacturer’s World Rally Championship. Ford’s rally year began when two specially equipped Falcon V-8's startled the automotive world in the brutal 2900-mile Monte Carlo Rallye. Other special Falcon V-8’s triumphed in Holland's famed Tulip Rally, and ran away with the Manufacturer's Team Prize in the 4000-mile Trans-Canada Rally. INDIANAPOLIS: Ford ends an era Advanced Ford engineering smashed precedent in the classic Indianapolis "500.” The first time out, a light alloy version of the Fairlane V-8 design in a Lotus chassis finished second. And the neit time, in the Milwaukee “200” it ended the reign of the traditional "Indy" racing car by leading every foot of the way from start to finish. PERFORMANCE A ECONOMY: New laurels for Ford The Mobil Economy Run underscored Falcon’s yearlong reputation for thrift—a Falcon scored first in Class B (medium-engined compacts). And the Pure Oil Performance Trials brought laurels to the big Fords, which walked off with overall wins in Classes I and II for total performance (economy, acceleration and braking). v Result: TOTAL PERFORMANCE INSPIRES THE TOUGHEST, SMARTEST CARS FORD EVER BUILT! , Fords have changed—and that’s the real reason behind Ford’s racing successes. We’re now making the longest lasting, best handling cars in our history. The things we’ve learned from the specially equipped cars we enter in open competition have helped make them that way. The inherent qualities that make the vie torioua racing car—road-holding, braking, durability, precision control, resistance to vibration—also make a car safer, stronger, and smoother for highway use. But prove it to yourself. Take the wheel of any new Ford. Five minutes on the road will show you the kind of total performance no one else can match. TR1TT0TAI PERFORMANCE FOR A CHANCE!

Appliancesl Culpeper, Va. From The Home Agent’s Pen By Harriet Goode furniture with flexibility, both in use and placement, makes enviable Christmas gifts for your family and people on your favored gift list. Miss Katherine L.Habel,home economist at Virginia Polytechnic Institute says flexibility plus beauty of design is an unbeatable combination in furniture. . and you can find both in many pieces priced under $100. For instance,consider a book case designed with adjustable shelves for books, a built - in clock, and cabinet space in the base. It can serve as a “teller of time” and display case for use in living room, hallway, den or bedroom. Or how about a sewing table with drop leaves and a slide out wicker basket to hold knitting or sewing?Without basket and with leaves extended, it can serve as a coffee table. With leaves down, it can sit at chairside and hold lamp or plant. The old muffin stand has been copied today. It is designed in three tiers 10 1/2 inches in diameter, large enough to hold cigarettes, books, etc. at chair side. A handle makes the stand portable to set beside a chair as an individual tea table. Brass rims prevent articles from sliding. Miniature chests good for storage and placement, can be used equally well in hallway, bedroom or living room. Some are 25 inches tall and fit at bedside or chairside. Or they can be grouped with a tall narrow mirror in the hall. Bottom W. -<r< nq R nq 70 00 Each a masterpiece of design . . . reflecting the full brilliance and beauty of the perfect center diamond.

Before you buy Christmas furniture, be sure you have studied your needs, know the size you want, and take .. mentally at least ..your room plans and color-scheme to market with you. If you are buying for a friend, consult her or the surprise may not be really satisfying and useful. If it's for your family, talk it over, plan together, and go shopping together so that such a major purchase will be exactly what everyone concerned wants. Household Hints j With the hustle and bustle of Christmas preparations keeping everyone busy I thought I would devote this section of the column to a good recipe for holiday cooking. Most of them can be prepared ahead and frozen, as can this chocolate fudge recipe. ********** Creamy Fudge 1 l oz. square Unsweetened chocolate 3 6 oz. package chocolate chips 1/2 lb. butter or margarine (2 sticks) 4 1/2 c. white sugar 1 large can evaporated milk 1 tsp. vanilla 2 c. nuts (if desired) Into a large bowl put the unsweetened chocolate, the chocolate bits and the butter. In a large heavy saucepan place milk and sugar. Melt over low heat, then bring mixture to a rolling boil. Set timer, and cook for 6 minutes. Stir constantly. Remove from stove and pour slowly over Chocolate and butter in the bowl. Beat slowly with an electric beater until the mixture begins to set. . be sure to beat long enough. Add vanilla and nuts while beating the last minute. Turn out into buttered pan. Chill 2 hours before cutting. Makes about 3 1/2 lbs. In making this fudge, the main concern is to cook it long enough at the boiling stage. The beating can be done by hand rather than with a mixer but it will take longer. This makes a large amount of candy so use a large pan and bowl. Have at least 2 9" x 9" pans ready to put it in to cool.

Interest To Veterans Too often veterans who have sold their GI homes learn later that the buyer has defaulted on the loan, the mortgage foreclosed, a deficiency resulted and they are liable to the Veterans Administration for payment of the claim the VA had to pay the lender. Merely selling the home does not relieve the veteran of his liability to the VA, . The veteran selling his GI hpme may be released of that liability to the VA if his loan is current and if the purchaser obligates himself by contract to purchase the property, assume the liability, and satisfies th VA that he is a good credit risk. A veteran planning to sell his GI home and avoid future liability should take either of two steps: (1) arrange for the GI loan to be paid in full, or (2) have the purchaser assume the loan and obtain a release of his liabilitv on the loan from the holder of the mortgage and the Veterans Administration. Edward M. Mathews, of the Front Royal Office of the Division of War Veterans’ Claims, is in Washington &t the Clerk’s Office on 1st and 3rd Monday from 2:0(1164:00p.m. and will gladly give more details on this subject or any other matter connected with veteran’s affairs.
