For the 16-county Northern Piedmont District, a total of 357 fires burned 934 acres of forest land. This is a substantial decrease over 1963, which was one of the worst years for forest fires in thej history of the Division of Forestry. In 1963, 545 forest fires burned 9,511 acres in the district. Although both years were dry, January and February of 1964 were months when more' snow fell than during the same months in 1963. This provided more moisture in the soil and compacted the leaves on the ground so that moisture would be held for longer periods of Continued on page 2 Yates Urges Coop. In Scabies Program James E. Yates, Chairman of Rappahannock County Sheep and Wool Growers, urges local farmers to cooperate whole heartedly in the upcoming inspection of sheep flocks for scabies. He added, *It takes some effort or/the part of the farmer to get his sheep up for this inspection, but the extra effort is necessary to eliminate this troublesome sheep disease from the nation. Scabies has cost sheep producers thousands of dollars in Virginia, and has limited the movement of sheep to other states. I feel it will be a great step forward if we can lick this problem, and the sooner the better!* The inspection will be made between January 18-29 by local men who have had special training. For additional infopmation, contact the county agent’s office, advisesa Mr. Yates. Virginia was first classified scabies free in August of 1963 but outbreaks in January and February of 1964 caused a setback. In June of 1964, however, the scabies free designation was again awarded. All sheep in states that had a case of scabies last year will be re-inspected this year.

First Major Snowfall Blankets Area Sunday; School Closed on Monday Everyone has their ups and downs and the weather is no exception. Temper atu res climbed up in the 60’s Satuiday, jessamine was blooming and the forsythia budding. How ever, Sunday gave a chilly reception as snow blanketed the area and temperatures dropped to the 20’s by nightfall. The fluffy white stuff began to fall at daybreak and continued for twelve hours, piling up about eight inches in the county. Skiiers rejoiced and road crews frowned; school children grinned with satisfaction at the thought of no school.: and mothers grimmaced at the thought of boots, wet jeans and gloves and tracks in the house. Reaction to the first real snow storm of the winter was varied depending on age and business. Driving was hazardous and visibility limited. Road crews worked throughout the day to keep roads passable. No accidents were reported during the snow, but traffic was tied up at Massies Corner late in the afternoon when a bus, truck and several automobiles failed to negotiate the hill on Route 211 going east. Early Monday morning a motorist apparently skidded on the icy road and knocked down the mail box at the Misses Rileys in Amiss ville. Several motorists skidded off the beaten track,but withn©tragic results. Rappahannock school, as well as others in the area, were closed Monday, but reopened Tuesday morning. The warm winter sun Monday and Tuesday waged a running battle with the freezing temperatures of the nights. Wednesday dawned cloudy and more precipitation is forecast for Thursday or Friday. This was the scene looking east toward the Town of Washington Monday qiorning after eight inches of snow had fallen Sunday. Firemen and spectators are silhouetted against raging flames which completely destroyed the Clarence Sector home near Amissville Saturday afternoon. The family saved a few pieces of furniture from a front room and only the clothes which they wore. Fire Destroys House Near Amissville A frame house on Route 640 (Tobacco Road) near Amissville was destroyed by fire Saturday afternoon. The dwelling was occupied by Clarence Rector,'colored, and his fam>ly- >ly) Amissville Fire Company responded to the alarm with three trucks, but the structure was practically consumed by flames by the time they arrived. The Rectors had no telephone and had to go some distance to turn in the alarm. However, the firemen did pre vent two automobiles which were parked beside the house from exploding or burning. The Rectors saved a few pieces of furniture from a front room and only the clothing which they wore. The family was taken in by neighbors. A dog which was cowering under the back porch of the Rector home died in the fire. Firemen attempted to coax the animal out with no success and then turned the hose on it to make it come out, but it refused, and so was killed in the fire. Religious Art Exhibit Continues The Exhibit of Religious Art at the Rappahannock Library was visited last week by the art class of Rappahannock County High School under the direction of Mrs. Christine Johnson who expressed admiration for the excellence of the work of the young people. This collection of art by students of high schools in the Washington area consists of the best selections submitted in the past three years. It may still be seen for a limited time at the regular Library hours or by special appointment for groups. Fire and Rescue Squad Notes The Flint Hill Rescue Squad took Mrs. Lester Yates from the scene of an accident near Atkins Filling Station to the Luray Hospital, Luray, on Monday.

Cancer Memorial Gift Fund “There is no gain except by loss,* someone once said. If this is true, there must be a great deal gained each year in cancer control, because there j are so many losses. Thoughtful persons are turn- ! ing these losses into victories ! by making memorial gifts to the American Cancer Society in memory of a loved one lost to cancer. These tributes to someone loved .are a living memorial and mean that others will be helped. In Rappahannock County, a memorial fund has been established to provide a practical and fitting means by which families or friends can com- ; memorate a loved one who has died of cancer or other cause., Contributions are often made j on 'Special occasions such as! birthdays or anniversaries, or i at certain holidays such as: Thanksgiving, Christmas,: Mother's Day or Memorial Day. Every memorial contribution, large or small, gives material aid to cancer programs of research, education, and service to patients. Memorial gifts received throughout the year are becoming increasingly important to the Society as more families and individuals become aware that they can contribute in the name of a loved one toward ultimate victory over cancer. Memorial funds should be sent to Mrs. Roberta Spalding, Flint Hill, Va., Memorial Gift Chairman, American Cancer Society. Panther Tales By Linda Beahm Examinations!

The game, played on the home court, score was 43-24. Carl Clark was high scorer with 18 points. O.K, Varsity, you’d better get with that ball. Brevity Has Its Points—But A hungry Frenchman vacationing in England, stopped at a country inn for breakfast. When the waiter came to take his order, he simply could not recall the English word for eggs. Being determined to get what he wanted, he clutched his throat and gave a crude cock crow, and said to the waiter, “What makes a noise like that so early in the morning?” “A rooster, sir,” replied the waiter. "Ah! And what you call the rooster’s wife?” “A hen, sir.” "Ah, And what you call the children of the rooster and his wife?" "Chickens, Sir.” "Ah, ha! Now what you call the chickens before they are chickens?" "Eggs, sir.” "Good!", cried the Frenchman, with a delighted smile. "Bring me two.” The point being whether it’ takes ten words or twenty, if we are determined enough we can get what we want. Don't Dig Grave with A Snow Shovel « Wh?n snpw come8 drifting tJo^n/ .m'anjl'peppl* tlb'^lr “snow shovels and rush' out to clear the driveway or sidewalk. This frequently results in strained muscles or a sore back, or worse, a heart attack. Anyone with a record of cardiac trouble or past 40 should avoid unusual exertion in cold weather. This is especially true when it comes to shoveling snow, but it also applies to carry ing heavy packages, ice skating, skiing or just plain hiking. Cold weather is invigorating and makes people feel they can do much more than is healthy for them. People who get little exercise especially are susceptible to overworking themselves in cold weather. If people nqust shovel snow, I recommend the following tips: 1. Start slowly and take it easy. Don’t attempt to clear a long driveway at one stretch. 2. Wet snow is heavy and will place a greater strain on the heart than the dry, powdery kind. Go easy when shoveling wet snow. 3. Keep a steady, unhurried pace and rest frequently. The snow will still be there when you come back in a few hours. People iri good health can exerci8e\ normally in cold weather, bufcv they should not neglect the above rules designed for their protection. Bridge Party Mrs. V. E.

Muslin is woven of shoft, staple, carded yarns, while percale is woven of longer carded or combed yarns which produce a finer, silkier sheet. Pima, an extra long staple cotton, produces a luxurious, feeling, excellent quality sheet, Although lighter in weight than regular percale, pima has greater tensile strength. Most sheets available are of one of these types: Type 128 muslin is a sturdy, popular priced sheet of medium weight. Type 140 muslin is a heavy weight sheet used by institutions and some homes. Type 180 percale is lightweight, soft, smooth, andeasy and economical- to launder. May be carded or combed yarn§. Type 200 percale is most luxurious andexpensive. Made of finest combed yarns, light, soft textured. Muslffi T5—not necessarily longer wearing than percale. Weight and tensile strength are not the only factors determining durability. A coarse wire such as a paper clip may seem sturdy, yet with bending will break because of lack of flexibility and resiliency. So it is with yarns. A sheet’s hardest wear results from fitting tightly around a mattress and from pulling and agitating in laundering and use. Wear also may result from strong bleaches and detergents in laundering.

For comfort and wear, sheets and pillow cases must fit properly. Mattresses and pillows are made in many different sizes and there are correct sheet and pillow case sizes for most of them. Flat sheet sizes are given as torn size; that is, the size before hemming. To figure the correct length, allow 4” for hem and about 1 to 5% for shrinkage. For example, a sheet labeled 108’ before hemming will be 103"j when purchased. If the fabric, was not pre-shrunk, the sheet will be even shorter. The torn size of 108* after it is launder' ed is adequate for most full mattresses. Extra length mattresses are growing in popu-; larity and extra length sheets 120" to 122 ’/2" torn size are made for them. Fitted sheets are pre-shrunk and should have a guarantee of less than 1% residual shrinkage. Suggested sheet sizes are: Bed - Twin; Mattress Size - 39 x 76”; Sheet Size - 72 x 108”; Bed - Full or double Mattress Size - 54 x 76”; Sheet Size - 81 x .108”; Bed - King; Mattress Size - 72 x 84”; Sheet Size - 108x 122 1/2 A case ^Efiat is too small makes a pillow uncomfortable and wears out sooner. A case that, is too large mades the pillow appear untidy. To find the right width, measure around the pillow and add 2” or 3”. A pillow case should be 6” longer than the pillow. Pillow case sizes are given as torn size before seaming and hemming. Fiber filled or foam pillows are usually smaller than feather pillows,sorequire a smaller case than the standard 42* x 38 1/2* size. There are cases 42* x 48" for pillows used on wide beds. Six sheets per bed and 3 cases per pillow are recommended. Tne supply should be replenished on a regular basis.
