Boundary Commission Findings Favor Line As Established 1792 Rappahannock County has been involved in a suit for the past two years to establish the boundary of the county where it borders the counties of Madison and Culpeper. Three commissioners were appointed from each county to study the boundary situation. Last week thecommissioners filed a report together with maps in the Circuit Courts of each county, recommending that the boundary line be left as it now stands. The line was established in 1792. The boundary commissioners studied a survey made by R. M. Bartenstein and Associates of Warrenton who had been employed by Rappahannock County. They also visited points along the boundary and studied old land records and maps before drawing their conclusions. Eight of the nine commissioners agreed on the line as established in 1792. D. D. Miller of Rappahannock was the only dissenting member and he has filed a minority report. The conclusion of the commission was “that these lines represent the boundary lines as they have been accepted by the respective counties since j1792."

a THE RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS, Washington, Va. Thursday, June 3, 1965 RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 67S-3345 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. Subscription Rate (In Advance): $2.50 per year in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.00 elsewhere. Virginia’s Campgrounds Await Numerous Summer Vacationers Over the next few months, thousands of families in Virginia will wake to the aroma of campfire coffee, and with smoke drifting through the open tent door. The children running through the trees to the water’s edg§ the recently caught fish frying with bacon for the camp break fast, the familiar tent or camp trailer—that home away from home, all of these add up to one of the greatest family experiences available to those who enjoy Virginia outdoors. If you haven’t tried family camping, why not borrow the necessary gear and visit one of Virginia’s many campgrounds? The family camper will usually have plenty of company if he goes to one of the popular Virginia campgrounds. We have about six million campers in the United States, a greater number than either hunters or fishermen, according to the recent estimate of a national camping organization Although we haven’t the slightest idea how many Virginians go camping, we do know there are about 200 carrtpgrounds in Virginia. More than half of these are privatelyowned, while the remainder are located in state and national parks, U.S.forests, and on other publicly-owned lands. A typical campground is located on or near a lake where there is swimming, fishing and boating. It will usually be equipped with a comfort station having showers and flush toilets. A campground store is often available. Many camp grounds have evening fire programs, hiking trails, and other * opportunities for en joyipg out* door surroundings. ' The campsite is developed as a unit for each family. It contains a place for the tent or camp trailer, a grill or fire circle of some kind, and a table, Campsites are usually near a supply of fresh water, and convenient to a comfort station. Although no one has ever attempted a count, there are probably 10,000 of these family campsites scattered through Virginia and available for your use. What does it cost; The usual fee for overnight camping for a family unit runs around $2 to $2.50. One reason camping has grown so rapidly in popularity is that people have discovered they no longer need to rough it when they go camping. In fact, with today’s low cost and well engineered camping equipment, you can be nearly as comfortable in camping as in vour own home. The fundamentals for a fam ily of four are a tent or camp trailer, sleeping bags, folding cots or air mattresses, three or four folding chairs, a gasoline lantern, and a gasoline stove. This entire basic unit will cost you no more than $100 to $150 if you shop carefully. Of course, if you can afford it and are carried away, you could spend $1,000 or more for the same basic unit. There are few states in the union that match V i r g i n i a’6 variety of camping opportunities,. You mav wish to travel to Virginia Beach and camp on the ocean shore at Seashore State Park, or you may wish to travel the Skyline Drive and camp in Shenandoah National Park. Virginia’6 famous Fairy Stone State Park may appeal to you. Or, if you primarily want to fish and camp, the several camp-i grounds at the Kerr Reservoir may be the answer. These, and many other exciting camping locations, await the adventurous family who wishes to see more of Virginia outdoors. About one out of every five camping families this summer will be camping for the first time. Most of them will enjoy the experience and return to campgrounds many times during the summer. A few will sell their camping equipment terling—traditional wedding gift of the Bride’s parents For centuries it has been traditional for the bride's parents to give their daughter a wedding gift of silver. In ancient days their gift was usually in the form of goblets, urns, howls, plates etc. By the late 1800’s Sterling flat silver came into prominence and it js, nowadays, the preferred wedding silver.

Game Lands Timber Sales Supplement Management (Continued from page 1) and quality of the remaining trees. Timber and pulpwood sales have been used extensively in recent years to open up the edges of access roads at little or no expense. This *daylighting" helps keep the road dry, facilitiates travel, reduces maintenance and provides a cleared area for wildlife food production. Sales of posts and rails are primarily for weeding purposes to open up and improve the species composition of small stunted hardwood stands. Browse production from stump sprouting in these selectively cut areas is quite rapid and the beneficial effect continues for several years afterward. Under the Commission’s current timber management program, sales are scattered rather widely over the areas on a compartment basis. These divergent operations tend to spread the vegetative changes over a wider area than would the harvesting of fewer large sections. HEALTH TIPS: from the American Medical Association When did you first hear the ancient cliche “All work and no play makes Jacka dull boy/ Setting aside time for recreation is becoming increasingly important in leading a healthful and productive life. For most people, the natural result of modern conveniences and increased automation is a sedentary existence. The National Recreation Association annually sponsors National Recreation Month and mutter “never again”. After all, some of us have left our Daniel Boone ancestry so far behind that living outof-doors has very little appeal. The misfortune of timing your first camping experience with a week of rainy and cold weather, or with an outbreak of insects, can be a discouraging experience. However, if you don’t believe that camping can be fun over the Ttmg run, just ask a few of the six million who camp regularly what they think about it. Mom is certain to retain the job of cooking the meals and cleaning up. Cheer up, ladies! You no longer have to worry about cooking over an open fire. There are a wide variety of camp stoves on the market that make the cooking chore just about as simple as on the home range. The manufacturers still haven't come up with an automatic dishwasher for use in the campground, but most families remember how to wash dishes by hand. And remember, if you’re looking for an activity and interest that will draw your entire family together, it’s hard to improve on the family camping experience. If the idea of camping sounds like something you want to| try, write the Outdoor Recreation Specialist, Agricultural Extension Service, VPI, and ask for the packet of information called “Camping in Virginia’s Outdoors. Why not go out and try it one weekend this summer? We six million campers can’t be wrong! HOW TO STOP FRITTERING AWAY YOUR SONS COUESI Not a nice thing to think about but you could be doing just that if you don’t have a regular savings program. Paychecks have a way of disappearing into thin air. And your best intentions to save often get postponed until the “next time around.” But there is an easy and sure way to save called the Payroll Savings Plan. And it works automatically. You just ask your employer to set aside a small amount from your check each payday to be put toward the purchase of a U. S. Savings Bond. For example, just $4.33 a week adds up to the $18.75 you need to buy a $25 Bond every month. More than likely you’ll forget you even set it aside (a pretty painless way to feather your nest). This way, those few dollars you never see now will be keeping Junior in tuition and textbooks later. What’s more, they’ll be working for Uncle Sam to keep the world strong and tree for his generation. So why don’t you point your willpower in the right direction! Join the Payroll Savings Plan, and see how you, too, can be a reformed fritterer. The U. S. Government does not pay for thie advertisement.

Fortunately, a wide variety of opportunities is available and every person should be able to find some that bring satisfaction. Interesting family activities, another important but often missing part of modern life, can evolve from personal recreation interests. Whatever a person may choose as hobbies, some physical recreation should be included daily. The health benefits from regular suitable physical activity, such as weight control, relief from stress, and a sense of well-being, are now well established. On the other hand, the potential ill-effects of prolonged inactivity, such as obesity, metabolic disorders, loss of movement capacity, cannot be considered helpful for enjoyable living. The broad benefits attributed to recreation are not automatic outcomes. Everyactt vity carries some risk, whether from the nature of the activity itself or from the demands on the participant. One national survery showed 18,000 disabling golf injuries in 1962. Most of these were sustained by persons struck by golf balls. However heat prostration accounted for 10 per cent and overexertion another 7 per cent of the total. These statistics should not cause a rush to the golf cart which produced 7 per cent of the casualties. Rather, golfers should respect the safeguards that judgment and conditioning will offer. To capitalize on recreational opportunities: 1. Learn your capabilities and limitations through periodic medical examinations, and plan your activities accordingly. 2. Practice habits of healthful living faithfully in order to have the ability to do effectively the things you must and want to do. 3. Understand the risks involved in your activities of choice, and the preventive measures to be followed. each June to alert Americans to the need for wise use of leisure time. Special events of interest to all age groups are planned by recreation de partments, civic groups, citizens, organizations and other recreation-m i n de d agencies across the country. Modern society has become what someone has called 'flip flopped." The executive now work^ long hours instead of the laborer. Yet, like e ve r y one else, physicians, executives, and other professional people need the refreshment that enjoyable recreation offers. Leisure time can be used to regain a healthy balance of suitable physical activity and relaxation. Whether through a trip to the opera or an hour or two of quiet fishing, the ability to 'lose oneself” in recreation provides personal fulfillment and relief from life’s tensions. Recreation is personal; to be satisfying, the hobbies and other activities chosen should be meaningful to the individuaL What may be enjoyable to one THE VILLAGE SHOP Main Street Flint Hill BAR-B-Q BIBS Open Tues. thru Sat., 10 a.m.-6 p.m. More American homes are heated with Mobilheat than with any other heating oil!

Last year nearly 212,000 gardens flourished under the green thumb of 4-Hl boys and girls. With spring well along and | summer just ahead, the 1965 national 4-H Garden program is off to a good start. Some gardens will beautify, and some will nourish. But whatever the garden—large or small—the main goal is to produce a fine harvest of boys and girls with new skills and scientific knowhow. There is a great deal of work between planting the seeds and harvesting the crops. Controlling weeds and insects, keeping records, creating exhibits and giving demonstrations are a few of the jobs that must be done. The most successful projects will be judged for awards. Recognitioh will be provided for the 20th year by AllisChalmers Manufacturing Company, Farm Equipment Division, sponsor of the national 4-H Garden program. During theNational 4-H Club Congress atchtcago next fall, company officials will personally present eight $500 educational scholarships to the highest ranking 4-H gardeners in the nation. The Congress trip will go to the boy or girl having the how does best project in the entire state. Medals will be given to a blue award group in each county. All winners will be selected by the Cooperative Extension Service which supervises 4-H. The young gardeners agree that getting close to nature is most gratifying, and tending a garden provides healthful outdoor exercise as well. A flare for landscaping or a scientific curiosity also can be satisfied. Gardening fits in with other projects such as food preserva tion and home improvement. For many, a garden has become a business venture. Roadside 1 stands dot the countryside. 1 Any boy or girl between 9 and 19 years of age can become a I 4-H member. Those interested in starting a garden can obtain information from a local 4-H leader or from the county extension office. 9:30 Sunday School 11:00 Morning Prayer and Sermon Holy Communion Service every first Sunday at 11:00 a.m. The Story of The Horse It’s been many years since the advent of the first automobiles gave rise to that famous cry -- “Get a horse!" But at this date many people are heeding that cry — the horse is enjoying a revival. At their height, in 1915, there were 21,431,000 horses in this country, most of them draft animals. Mules reached a peak in 1925 at 5,918,000 head. With the coming of the machine age -- the automobile, truck, and tractor -- the draft horse and mule declined in numbers. Today, however, the horse is rising to a happier position and is contributing to the fields of recreation and sport. Further expansion in light horses appears inevitible, says Arden Huff of the animal science department at VPI. (The’ light horse is a king of equine compact!) The story of the horse covers a period of about 58,000,000 years. Man hunted him as recently as 25,000 years ago, domesticated him a mere 5,000 years ago, and returned him to the new world less than 500 years ago. r ossu remain prove that members of the horse family roamed the plains of America, especially what is now the Gr^at Plains area of the U. S. beginning about 58,000,000 years ago. Yet no horses were present on this continent when Columbus discovered America in 1492. Why they perished only a few thousand years before, is still one of the unexplained mysteries of evolution. The horse was probably the last of the present-day farm animals to be domesticated by man. According to early records, after subduing the ox, the sheep, and the goat, man domesticated the ass and then the camel, finally the horse became his servant. Horses appear to have been domesticated first in Central Asia or Persia more than 3,000 years before Christ. It seems incredible that all the various breeds, colors, and types of horses should have descended from t common, wild ancestor. Rather, there were probably many different wild stocks giving descent to domestic horses. Ihrough the ages--in order of time—man used the horse; as a source of food, for meat and milk; for military purposes, both as cavalry and to draw vehicles; in the pasttimes and sports of nations, in chariot and horse races; for agricultural and commerical pursuits, in pulling loads and tilling the soil; and for recreation, sport, and limited commercial use. Horses were first brought directly into what is now the United States by DeSoto in the year 153Q. He had 237 horses on his ships. Then, about the year 1600, the Spaniards estab lished a chain of Christian missions among the Indians in the New World, These extended from the eastern coast of Mexico up the Rio Grande, across the mountains to the Pacific Coast, and each mission brought hojse.s from the mother country."" Proper Fan Venilation Effective Cooler The correct use of fans can do much to cool your home effectively and inexpensively during hot summer days, says A. J. Lambert, associate F.x tension agricultural engineer at Virginia Polytechnic Institute. ‘In areas where air condi tioning is not generally need ed, forced air circulation from tion from an attic fan will give relief,” says the engineer ‘When the temperature cools in the evening, the fan is turn ed on. Some windows are barely opened, allowing the fan to pull the cooler air through the living quarters and attic and forcing the warmer air aut attic louvers.” Lambert says this method is rery satisfactory for moun:ainious areas of the state. Average installation charges vill probably not exceed $150 tnd the fan can be operated or about 10 cents a day. The an is turned on manually, md a time clock can be set o cut it off. “Anyone who requires sleep without drafts in the early eveling will not like this arrangement, though,” he warns. Another procedure is to use a fan for cooling the attic onl^j the engineer points out. This can prevent temperature build ups (sometimes they reach 140 degrees) even where other types of air conditioning or air cooling systems are used. Automatically controlled, this type of fan has a thermostat that is generally set to cut the fan on at 95 degrees and off at 85 degrees. Installation costs will probably run around $75 for a 3000 cubic foot per minute fan for the average home. Operating costs will run about four cents a day, says Lambert. “You’ll be disappointed in this arrangement, though, if you like the effects of air movement in your living quarters,” he explains. Most commonly used method of gaining heat relief, however, is probably window fans, the engineer believes. Placed in windows, they are turned on in the late afternoon or evening when it’s cooler outside than it is inside. Other windows not containing fans are barely opened and the fans pull the cooler air through the living quarters. These are the simplest to install and they provide positive cross ventilation in one or more rooms, says Lambert, They are normally controlled manually. Initial cost depends on the type fan purchased. Operating costs will probably not exceed two cents a day. “Although this arrangement will not cool the attic, it does offer a positive feeling of air movement,” says Lambert. For more information on using attic and window fans, he suggests seeing your county F.xtension agent. Good Lighting Can Reduce Accidents New York, N.Y. - The high accident rate among older Americans could be cut through improved strategic : lighting in the home, the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness, Inc. said here today in a Senior Citizens Month message. The combination of agedeyes and inadequate illumination is a significant factor in accidental falls that kill more than 10,000 elderly persons each year. John W. Ferree, M.D. executive director of the national health agency reported. May has been proclaimed as Senior Citizens Month by President Johnson. “A person in his sixties needs about two and one-half times more light than a 20year-old,” said Dr. Ferree. “In most cases as we get older, we do get brighter reading lights but neglect other areas of the home vital to continued safe living.” Dr. Ferree cited a report pre sented at the 1965 annual conference of the National Society showing the accidental death rate per 100,000 population climbs from 55 among young adults to 90 in the 65-74 year ■l wm Ml mi m wm wm inn m mu im nn • age group and then soars to 276 accidental deaths per 100, 000 in the 75-year and older catagory. The report, prepared by No?' vin C. Kiefer. M.D. and Manuel Rodstein, M,D. of the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States, noted that accidental falls kill almost 11,000 persons 75 and over annually. Poor illumination and the decreased visual acui ty of the older person contri bute to these falls, particular ly stairways, the physicians said. Age slows the adaptation of the eyes to darkness and also slows eye-hand and eye-foot coordination. These changes demand consideration in plan ning home safety and accident prevention for the elderly, ac cording to Dr. Ferree. The Society recommends that passageways have gooc lighting during the day as well as at night, particularly stairs and landings. The one or twc steps between levels in a splii level dwelling are especiallj hazardous for the person whc cannot discern the less obvious differences betweer floor levels. The edges of steps should bt painted with fluorescent pain’ or some sharply contrasting color, and the illuminatior used should clearly indicate the.height of the riser. F’pr nightime, 3 1/2 to 7 1/1 watt lights should be used ii bathrooms, hallways, bedrooms, and other possibly ha: ardous locations. The econo my-minded older person ma; have to be convinced of hov little extra electricity these night lights take. Silent ligh switches, which the older pe: son will use more readily be ^eause he won’t disturb other: are an added safety bonus, i small patch of fluorescen paint around a switch helps in locating it in the dark. The National Society also advocates that all Senior Citizens who wear eyeglasses get safety glasses. Safety glasses with shatter-resistant lenses offer protection to the eyes in case of a tumble or other mishap. Safety lenses can be ground to bi-focal and even tri-focal prescriptions.

Social Security Nates Do you employ regular or part-time workers on your farm or are you a crew leader who furnishes labor for , farmers? ' Do you keep good records of the time and wages of these workers? You should keep these records to establish the amount of wages paid eacn employee, but this is not a complete job of recordkeeping. Good records include: (1) the amount of cash wages paid these employees, (2) the time each actually worked, and (3) their social security numbers. The social security tax should be withheld trom the employee’s wages during the period he works even though you do not know how long he will stay with you. A farm worker’s wages are subject to social security tax if you pay him as much as $150 during the year or if the worker is employed on 20 or more days during the year and paid on a time basis -- by the hour, day, or week. If he works less than 20 days and is not paid as much as $150 during the year, you should refund the tax withheld from his wages. If he meets either of the two tests, the social security tax must be paid. Under the law, the employer is held responsible for both the employee and employer tax for social security purposes. It is apparent that a record of the time worked and the wages paid is necessary in order to determine which employee to report. Th& actual report form requires a social security number for each employee. Most farmers get the social security numbers of their fulltime employees but sometimes fail to get those of their part-time workers. The part-time employees present a problem because they often quit or the job is finished before the farmer gets a record of the numbers. A good system used by many employers is to insist on seeing the social security card before paying the first week’s wages. This should be understood by the worker at the time he is hired. If the employee does not have a social security card or lost his card, &sk him to get an application form for a social security number from the nearest post office. After he 'ha'S completed this ckrd and mailed it to his local social security district office, he will receive his card in about 10 days. For further information, write or call your nearest social security office. Q'fi'r-i < i//,a>r - >/y - C*-dy/<c - ’%'(OO New Toiletries For Men by Interwovei F.L.

Pen By Doris Dougherty If you’re the type of person who reads the label only when all else fails, you may be in trouble when you use commercial cleaning agents in your home. Miss Amelia H. Fuller, home economist at Virginia Polytechnic Institute, points out that many of the cleaning products contain chemicals which may cause serious injury or even death if misused or carelessly handled. You are protected by the Federal Hazardous Substance Labeling Act. The act requires manufacturers to label their products, giving information about ingredients which may be harmful if misused. The label also lists antidoes to use if the harmful substance is taken through mistake or carelessness. But the final and most important step is up to you. You must read and pay attention to the label to benefit from its directions. Miss Fuller also calls atv tention to the danger of mixing compounds when you know nothing about the new chemical that may be created. For example, the National Safety Council reported one death, and a near death, as result of mixing well-known cleaner and a household bleach in a toilet bowl. The acid content of the cleaners liberated chlorine when the household bleach was added. One person died in a few minutes. Another survived, but was hospitalized for a long time. If you use household bleaches remember that they are solutions of sodium hypochlorite. Acid substances, even vinegar added to the bleaches, will create and release poisonous chlorine gas. Miss Fuller says never combine cleaners and bleaches. Store them safely in separate place. Keep them away from food and medical supplies and put them where children do not have access to them. County News Don’t mix together different insecticides unless the label recommends it. Do mix pesticides in a wellventilated area, preferably outside. There may be dangerous fumes. Don’t let the children help Daddy spray. Do keep children and pets away from where you are mixing or using pesticides.

Camp Easter Seal Opens June 13 Camp Easter Seal, the camp for handicapped children near New Castle, Va., operated by the Virginia Society for Crippled Children and Adults, will open on June 13 and operate until August 14. This year’s schedule was announced today by Mr. Maurice Unger, State President of the Society.

During their stay at camp these children will participate in al regular camp activities, and in addition, will participate in physical and speech therapy programs. A staff of 70 people has been selected to serve as therapists counselors, cooks, waiters, and program directors.

The Department offers it to one can predict prices and he right farmers with the warning that no all the time.) The cattle market is expected to continue strong with some price improvement likely. Cattle slaughter for the next few weeks is expected to run 4 to 5 per cent less than for the same period last year, based on the April 1 Cattle on Feed Report. Compared to a year earlier, this report shows that there were 13 per cent less cattle on feed in the 900 - 1099 pound weight group, and 2 per cent fewer in the 700 - 899 weight group. The report also indicated that the only cattle showing increases over 1964 were those weighing under 700 pounds -- light weights under 500pounds were up 8 per cent, and those weighing 500 - 699 pounds were up 11 per cent. In Chicago last week choice grade steers for slaughter brought $26.50 - $29.00 and good steers were $23.50 - $26.00. Choice grade heifers sold at $25.50 - $27.50, and good heifers brought $22.00 - $25.25. Cattle moving through Virginia auctions last week brought these prices; choice steers $24.00 - $26.00 and good steers $22.2% - $24.00. Good heifers brought $18.50 - $20.75. ************ Be sure you’re right -- Cross with the light. SMALL MALE TERRIER, ginger colored, lost from car May 26 near Orlean.

Pay particular attention to keeping cellar or basement stairs safe, the Association advises. Don’t let them become a catchall for cleaning materials and other household paraphernalia. Cattlemen Should Prepare for 1975 There’s $38,000,000 in additional income waiting for Virginia cattlemen by 1975, if they can earn it, saysGeorge Littoq head of the animal science department at V ir g i n i a Polytechnic Institute. This figure, says Litton, is the potential estimated by a university study committee, if cattlemen improve feed, pasture, markets, know-how, their competitive position, and other variables. 1 Litton says, “Get records, , cull by them--not on looks alone.

An affidavit having been made and filed that there maybe persons interested in the subject matter of the suit whose names are unknown and making them parties defendant by the general description of “parties unknows”. It is ordered that the said persons made defendant by the general description of “unknown heirs, devisees, and successors in title or unknown parties" do appear within ten days after due publication of this order and do what is necessary to protect their interests. It is further ordered that the foregoing portion of this order be published once a week for four successive weeks in the Rappahannock News, a newspaper published in the Town of Washington, Rappahannock County.

A Copy—Teste: Datrd: May 5, 1965 E. M. JONES, Clerk T. Carlyle Lea, Jr. Counsel for Complainant Washington, Virginia 5-13-4k need this advice by 1975 unless you improve your cow lines, too. Avoid overstocking, don't buy hay or roughage*, use the who'W’corn plant for silage and —for heaven's sake—test it!" Avoid nostrums and highly promoted feeds with questionable ingredients. Find ways to intensify use of pasture. Maket breeding stock selections from herds where they grow well without stimulation of drugs, dope and extras. Some cattlemen need to increase herd size, but size alone is no cure-all. Automation is a luxury, so don’t go wild on machinery, equipment barns, and gadgets that cows can’t pay for. Remember that cows have only four ways of paying; through reduced cost§ greater calving percent, more growth, and improved grade. The scientists adds, “Comfort must be provided, however. Cattle won’t fatten that plow all day, and if they pull through mud--they’ve plowed! There’s not much to be gained when man-made stress of some kind saps away all the good you've done improving genetics and the feeding program.” Jobs not done on time mark you as a careless, unresponsive, overrelaxed (lazy) individual, so paint up, cut the brush, castrate, dehorn, and vaccinate. Do something to guarantee carcass merit for your customers, says Litton. It is your business what goes on--even outside your line fences. “Find a way to do without the fads in seed stock production in favor of the practical needs of the commercial man who has to make a living withwhat you produce for him. The ‘Country Club’ image attached to some purebreds helps destroy confidence of country bull buyers whether it should or not. Get ready for 1975, because if you wait to do ittomorrow may be too late.” Veterans News Unmarried minor children of deceased veterans maybe eligible for Veterans Administration pension even when their mother, the veteran’s widow, is not eligible. The widow may be ineligible due to having remarried or because she has income in excess of legal limits. Her ineligibility does not make the veteran's minor children ineligible. Children of deceased veterans may be eligible for pension until 18 years of age, or 21 years if attending school, provided they are unmarried and their own personal incomes are not greater than the regulations allow. When a widow with chit dren is already on the pension rolls, the subsequent ineligibb lity of the widow poses no problem. Pension payments to the children are continued after the mother’s name is removed from the rolls. Edward M. Mathews, of the Front Royal Office of the Division of War Veterans’ Claims, is in Washington at the Clerk’s Office on 1st and 3rd Monday from 2:00 to 4;00 p.m. and will gladly give more details on this subject or any other matter connected with veteran’s affairs.
