Wayland of Sperryville, is serving aboard the destroyer New, one of the recovery ships for the Project Gemini GT-5 (Gemini Titan-5) eight - day flight of astronauts Gordon Cooper and Charles Conrad. His ship was located on a recovery station some 1,000 miles east of Cape Kennedy along the ground track of Gemini 5 during the powered flight phase and orbital insertion. ine New then steamed to a position to be in a favorable recovery location in the event of a shortened flight. When her portion of the mission has terminated, the New will resume normal operations. A specially designed Geminr Apollo davit retrieval crane has been installed on the destroyer to facilitate handling of the capsule. The New was chosen for this mission because of her steaming capabilities and adequate aboard medical facilities necessary for physical debriefing of the astronauts. Normally operating as a unit of the Atlantic Fleet’s AntiSubmarine Warfare Force, New was selected for recovery duty weeks in advance of GT-5t Since her designation, the crew has undergone extensive drills in spacecraft recovery technique. Commander Harry Joynton is Captain of the Norfolk-based ship.

Masonic Lodges To Hold Picnic The Masonic Lodges in the Piedmont section of Virginia will hold a picnic at the Germanna picnic grounds on Rt. 3 on Sunday, Aug. 29. This is the exact date 249 years ago (1716) that the Knights of the Golden Horseshoe began their trek from Germanna over Swift Run Gap. Suggested hour of arrival at the grounds for Masons and their families is 10-.00 h.m. with a worship service at 11:00 a.m. A fellowship hour will follow and lunch will be served at 1 p.m., followed by games. Masonic Masters of the area hope to make the event an annual affair. Miss Wood Chrm. For Chilidren’s Home Miss Mary M. Wood will serve as chairman of this year’s fund raising campaign in Rappahannock County for the Children’s Home Society of Virginia. Mr. Richard H. Catlett, president of the Children’s Home Society said; “We are indeed fortunate to have Miss Wood to head up the campaign this year.” Since 1900 when the Society was organized it has rendered services to more than 8,000 Virginia children. Last year the Society received into care 209 babies and placed into adoptive homes 194. This was a 30% increase over the services rendered in 1963. Even with the increase in services rendered, over 100 requests for help were refused because at the time service was needed the Society did not have the resources to furnish the help. There is a definite need for increased services throughout Virginia, therefore there is a growing need for additional funds,, to take care of more homeless babies. These infants must look to the people of Rappahannock County and the other citizens of Virginia for help. We hope everyone will give generously this year. Amissville Firemen Gross $11,744 Charlie Compton, Treasurer of Amissville Fire Com pany, reports the gross receipt from the annual carnival held in August to be $11, - 744.27.

W. Woodson, Jr., Superintendent of State Police and Chairman of the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee, revealed today. This figure does not include vehicles seized by other Vi*ginia police agencies, he said As an example, Richmond city police seized 145 vehicles. This law reguires that any police office who believes he has arrested a driver operar ing under a revoked or suspended license must “seize and take possession of” the vehicle driven and turn it over to the Sheriff of the county or the Sergeant of the city in which the offense occurred. Innocent owners of cars driven by others and lien holders are protected in that they are given the opportunity to be heard. However, if innocence cannot be established, the cars are sold and the proceeds paid into the State Literary (School) fund. The driving must be without the owner’s or lienholder’s “connivance or consent" if the vehicle is to be restored. Commenting, Colonel Woodson said, “If the State cannot rule incompetent or uncooperative drivers from the road and keep them off the road, our entire driver licensing system must become useless. Confix cation is indeed a stern measure, but Virginia law permits it for such offenses as violation of our game laws or for transporting illegal whisky.” Invitation Extended U AmUtidmnm By Foxhunters Assoc. The field trials and bench show sponsored by Northern Virginia Fox Hunters Assoc, is scheduled to ODen tonittht at o p.m. at Culpeper Enterprises on Route 29.

No Services Sunday at Amissville Methodist Sunday School will be held at 10 a.m. in Amissville Methodist Church on Sunday, August 29, but there will be no 11 a.m. Worship Service in order to make it possible for members of the church to join Jeffersonton Methodist Church in observing Homecoming. On Sunday, Sept. 5, Sunday School will be held at 10, Worship at 11 and the Official Board will meet at 7:30 p.m. S. B. Settle Engineer for W. Va. Highway Dept. Samuel B. Settle of Parkersburg, w.

How To Kill Insects On Indoor Plants > Insect pests on plants which are kept indoors are likely to be forgotten with outdoor gardening, says J. M. Amos, associate Extension entomologist at Virginia Tech. Insects likely to give trouble are; scale on ferns, begonia, and cacti; mealybugs on coleus aphids on tender leaves and flower buds; mites or red spider on rubber plants and most indoor plants. Sometimes whitefly and springtails are also a problem. Amos suggests that if the plant is very badly infested it may be more work that it is worth to save it, unless it has a particular sentimental value. For large plants which cannot be inverted into a solution and dipped, an aerosol spray bomb or a, compressed air sprayer may be used to apply the insecticide. Most of the insects on plants indoors must be killed by contact with the insecticide, and dipping the plants into a bucket of spray solution is the easiest way of establishing contact with the insect. A crushed paper or a cardboard on the top of the pot will prevent the soil from dropping out. Lukewarm water may be used to encourage a better kill, but never use hot water as it will injure the • plants. Spray materials containing malathion or pyrethrum should be effective against most household plant pests and directions on the THE PREFERRED WHITE PRESERVATIVE PAINT A TRULY WHITE PAINT FOR RARHt, FENCES, ETC.

When there are only a few small plants involved, you may wish to remove the insects by hand or by daubing them with a small cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol. A reading lens will make it easier to find all of the insects for this kind of treatment, Amos says. Smokey Sayt: WHEN BURNING DEBRIS-USE CARE , AS THIS MAN IS DOING' Don’t Spoil Your Labor Day Outing Going on a Labor Day picnic? Don’t let bugs spoil your outing. And we aren’t speaking of the bugs you’re thinking of— ants, flies, mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers and the others. We’re speaking of those unseen bugs that inhabit contaminated food and water, causing such ills as food poisoning, gastroenteritis and typhoid and paratyphoid. Too many people do far too much to invite these unseen bugs to their picnics, says Today’s Health, the magazine of the American Medical Association. Disease organisms, if present in food. multiDlv rapidly in warm temperatures. The trunk of your auto on a Labor Day weekend most likely will be warm, if not downright hot. Prevention and avoidance are the keys to picnic safety. So don’t do things with food on a picnic that you wouldn’t do at home. Don’t expect picnic food to keep any better than food at home. You wouldn’t keep potato salad in the sun on a window-sill at home from early morning to suppertime. The zebra, the hippo, the giraffe, and the opaki are found no place on earth, in a native state, except Africa. Cooked meat combined with somewhat moist bread makes an ideal breeding place for bacteria. Don’t make up your picnic sandwiches the night before. Take the Ingredients along in your picnic refrigera tor and make the sandwiches on the spot. Clear, running water does Card Of Thanks We wish to express sincere thanks and appreciation to relatives, neighbors and friends of Mrs. Fannie Putnam for the fnany expressions of sympathy, visits, cards and flowers sent our mother during her stay in the hospital. We also thank Dr. Humphrey and the staff of Warren Memorial Hospital. The Family. not mean pure water. A spark ling stream can be loaded with contagion.

Dunne, Director, Bureau of Maternal and Child Health, Virginia State Department of Health to urge all parents to be thoroughly aware of the physical status of their children entering school for the first time. “It is our hope that most of these children have been examined during the spring and early summer and any defects that may have been found will have been corrected,” said Dr. Dunne. For those children who have not had the benefit and advantage of such an examination Dr. Dunne urges parents to take their child to their family physician or dentist, or, where this cannot be done, to the local health department for a complete preschool examine tion. “It is essential that vision, he aring, heart, posture, weight and teeth be checked, he said, “and the doctor and dentist will appreciate discussing at the time of the ex amination, any questions or concerns that the parent may have regarding the child’s health.” Virginia State law requires that all children show evi “COUNTRY MUSIC JUBILEE" SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 5th, 1965 Beginning At 1:00‘ P.M. - Continues Until Dark —AT— Washingtoh, Va.

In case of rain will be held following Sun., Sept. 12 Sponsored By Washington Volunteer Fire Co. and Rappahannock Rescue Squad dence of a successful vaccina cion against smallpox before they can be accepted for enrollment in the first grade or kindergarten of any Virginia school. If the child has not been successfully vaccinated within the last five years, Dr. Dunne suggests that it be done now in order that the scar will heal before schools begin. The State Health Department and most physicians strongly recommend that all children be immunized against tetanu^ diptheria, whooping cough, measles, and polio; or, if this has been done, booster injections be given if necessary to continue the immenity. The family physician or local health department can tell the parent when these boosters are needed. “The child who enters school for the first time is making a sharp departure from his way of life as he knows it,“ said Dr. Dunne. “There will be many changes and adjustments to be made, each making demands of vary ing degrees upon the child. To help him meet successfully these new challenges and opportunities, he should have every advantage healthwise available. Being sure the child has been thoroughly examined and, if indicated, necessary treatment provided, and proper immunizations against childhood illnesses administered are important ways of helping the child start a productive school life,” he emphasized.

Newberry Co. dept, store f IN DOWNTOWN RONT ROYAL CHARGE LAYAWAY Highway Dept Boys Land for Future Use The first payment went this week into a revolving fund established by the 1964 General Assembly for the purchase of land needed for future road projects for which allocations are not yet available, the State Highway Department said today. The agency, after closing its books for the 1964-65 fiscal year, said $3,349,550 was left as an unappropriated balance. Under last year’s legislative action, the sum must go into the right-of-way fund. This will permit some advance land purchases, before other development boosts the cost. But the amount is smau compared to tne run cost of yearly land acquisition. In the 12-month period just ended, for example, the High way Department spent more than $40 million on right-of way purchases. Although a large percentage of the land needed for the huge interstate system has now been bought, much more ‘ will be required as the State continues development of its network of multi-lane, divided arterial highways and undertakes other projects. Under the 1964 General Assembly action, year-end unappropriated balances in highway money are to be channel ed into the advance right-ofway fund until the total reaches $10 million. Then, a.s allocations are made in Subsequent years for projects on which the right-of way has already been purchas ed the revolving fund will be reimbursed to finance further advance purchases. The law creating the fund became effective with the end of fiscal 1963-64, but since the Department closed out that year with a deficit of $2.2 million, no money was available then. Legislation creating the fund was recommended by the Vir ginla Highway Study Commis sion. It was designed to mini mize the cost of road construction by permitting the Department, when possible, to purchase necessary right of-way before land is highly developed. Such development of course, boosts land valuer A final report issued today, after the Department’s financial books were closed for the fiscal year, actually show (ed that its estimates of revenue from State sources, [made 18 months ago and based on immediate past experience, were exceeded by $8,398,826. Receipts from the motor fuel tax accounted for the largest share, having been estimated at $105,400,000 but producing $110,590,000. Motor vehicle licenses, under the first full year following increases in rates by the 1964 General As sembly, brought in$50,886OGO. The license estimate had been $47,507,000. Receipts from all State sources for highways totaled $171,379,626. However, several factors reduced the net balance to the $3,349,550 figure. Chargeable against the total unappropriated balance was the $2.2 million deficit from the previous year, plus $1,250.000 additional overhead e* penses of the Department in its expansion to meet demands of accelerated interstate and arterial construction, and$l,557.000 additional emergency appropriations for the State Police, the Division of Motor Vehicles and the section of the State Corporation Commls sion responsible for regulat ing and taxing motor carriera Cost of the latter is financed from road-user taxes, as pro vided by the State’s Appropriation Act.

Travel Industry Has Fair Half-Year Despite a sluggish March and June, the Virginia travel industry posted a fair first half in 1965 when compared with the first half of 1964, Irby N. Hollans Jr., director of travel development of the Virginia State Chamber of Commerce, said today. In both March and June most areas of the industry experienced a decline when compared with the same months in 1964, he said. The March fall was due to a late Easter this year since Easter, 1964 was in March. Hollans said the sluggish June was attributed by state travel spokesmen largely to "the stock markep Viet Nam, the general unsettled world situation, the Interstate Highway System and its changing travel patterns and cold, wet mid-month weather.* The remaining four months of the six-month period were generally good when compared vyth the same months in 1964. Comparing the entire onehalf year period the 27 indices in the State Chamber’s “Monthly Travel Barometer” showed mixed trends. Of the 27 Indicators scattered throughout Virginia, 11 showed increases, nine showed decreases and seven did not supply sufficient first-half figures for comparison with the same 1964 period, he said. The first-half of 1965 increases ran from 1.6% to 31% with average being between 5 and 10 percent. On the downside, the declines ran from .8% to 17.8% with the average decline about five per cent. Travel units reporting in the monthly survey were scattered across Virginity “t h e figures indicate that no one section fared better than any other section during the first half of this year," Hollans emphasized. “The beaches report a very good season, the moun tains and national parks show some gain but there was a slight dip in state park attendance," he pointed out. Notice Dues for the upkeep of Sperryville Cemetery are past due. It is requested that dues be paid promptly to the Sperryville Cemetery Association.

From The Home Agent’ Pen By Doris Daugherty When hanging pictures, place the center of interest at eye level for an average person when he is standing, suggests Mrs, Mildred A, Payne, Extension home furnishings specialists “Many persons who recall the days of Victorian furnishings seem to find it difficult to accept the newer and more sensible trend to bring pictures down where they can be i v ie we d easily.” ” She does point out that furnishings, too, have to betaken into consideration and that some pictures should be hung with the thought in mind that they are to be viewed by persons who are seated. A picture should be hung close enough to the furniture, advises Mrs. Payne, so that it appears to be a part of a unit. It should never be hung on a blank wall without some “visual support,” such as a piece of furniture or architectural structure which appears to support it. “The size and shape of the picture should be well related to the space in which it is hung and also to the furniture over which it is hung. If you don’t have a large picture to hang over a large piece of furniture, perhaps you can hang a pair or grouping. “Balance is important, too, By balance, I don’t mean that you must use the same object or picture on each side of a piece of furniture or that identical objects must be used on each side of a picture hung in the center. Balance, in home furnishings, is visual “Formal balance may be the easiest to obtain, but it is not necessarily the most interesting. So if you want to try your hand at informal balance just remember that a picture hung off-center must have something to balance it ; visually, such as a lamp, plant, or other accessory. Hang pictures so they lie flat against the wall. To get them to lie flat, fasten the wire about one-third down from the top and stretch it fairly tight across the back of the picture so- the- wire doeen’t ehow. Use regular picture wire and regular picture hooks because, with these, the nail goes through the hook at an angle and the weight actually helps to support the picture. “Remember that pictures are chosen for your home to enhance the beauty of it. So make the best use of your pictures by hanging them where they will do the best decorating job,” says Mrs. Payne.

Put two nails on some convenient outside wall, hang one blind at a time on these nails, and wash both the tapes and slats. First, scrub one side of the blind with slat closed, using a brush dipped in soap or detergent solution. Next, turn the hose on to rinse it. Reverse the blind to sudsscrub and rinse the other side.

VA Phone 347-14Q0 State Takes Aim at Drinking Drivers Legislative recommenda tions of the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee, released today by Colonel C. W. Woodson, Jr,, the Committee Chairman and Superintendent of State Police, were directed strongly at the drinking driven The Committee is recommending that the alcohol level at which a driver is presumed to be intoxicated be lowered from the present .15 percent by weight to .10. Before reaching a level of .15, a 160-pound person must consume eight ounces of 100proof whisky within an hour. The same person will reach .10 after consuming five ounces within an hour. This measure is recommended by the Uniform Vehicle Code and is in force in North Dakota, North Carolina and Mew York. The second recommendation is designed to prohibit failure to sign a “permission slip" or make a written request for withdrawal of blood from being considered legal grounds for refusing a chemical test. Physicians are now hesitant to withdraw blood without writ ten permission of the accused for fear of a suit for assault or invasion of privacy. As the law now stands, refusal to sign a “permission slip” ormakea request in writing for the test do not constitute refusal of the test and the 90-day license suspension for refusing with lout justifiable reasons cannot !be administered. The Committee is suegestintr that the law be amended to provide that such refusal or the failure to make the request be considered legal refusals.1 Such permission would not absolve a physician from possible negligence. Colonel Woodson noted that last vear 33.2 percent of Virginia s fatal crashes involved drivers known to have been -drinking. This percentage, he added, would be considerably higher were all facts known in all cases. “Various painstaking surveys elsewhere in dicate strongly that it would be at least 50," he added. Other recommendations included a statutory definition of “crosswalk"; revision of the section of the law covering brakes; requiring housetrail ers disabled on the highway to be protected by flares, as are trucks and buses, and giving the State Police authority to adopt tire safety specifications. Care Required in Filling Horiz. Silos - Farmers should take more care In filling horizontal silos rthan they do in filling tower silos, points out L. B. Driggers, assistant Extension agricultural engineer at Virginia Tech. He says that the usual method of filling horizontal silos is by depositing the chopped forage’ directly into the silos from wagons, trailers, or dump trucks. In some instances, he adds, the forage is unloaded onto an elevator or into a blower that conveys it into the silo. “It’s, better to use dump trucks or wagons with mechanical loaders,” says Driggers, “because you can spread the forage evenly in thin layers. This reduces the labor requirements for spreading and makes the job of compacting much easier. The more uniformly and smoothly you spread the forage in the silo, the better the results of the packing. Density variations in the silage are less when the forage is evenly spread.” For best results in packing, the engineer suggests driving a wheeled tractor back and forth over the forage. He (points out that the packing (done by the tractor is supple-' (mented by the wagons or 'trucks used for hauling the 'forage which are pulled or driven through the silo during unloading. He says that track type tractors can also be used for packing. “The procedures used in packing with wheeled tractors will vary,” says Driggers, “but where filling proceeds at - VOTE FOR | ISMOKEY BEAR I I s_y ■ YOUR FOREST FIRE PREVENTION I REPRESENTATIVE!

There is no danger of overpacking, and no damage will result from continuous packing. At least one complete packing of the exposed surface should be made between each load delivery.” Upon completing the filling operation, says the engineer, place a cover over the ensiled forage. This will exclude air and water and protect the silage from birds, small animals, and insects. Driggers recommends 6-mil thick black polyethylene plastic film as an economical and effective cover, although several different types of materials may be used. “Place the end of the plastic cover along the windward side of the silo and anchor it in Our Colored Readers Charlie C.

Anchor all edges and make a channel on both sides of the silo so the rain water will run off at the ends. Proper placing of the cover should prevent water from entering the silo. “For best results, completely cover the plastic film with several inches of sawdust,) ground limestone, or old tires. These will keep the cover weighted down and there will be very little top spoilage in the silo."
