From the time you approach the gate, circle the driveway and enter the house with its double porches supported by two-story columns, there is a feeling of luxury of another era. The beautiful oriental rugs and c r y s t a 1 chandaliers on the entire first floor intensify t h i s feeling. Meadow Brook Hall was formerly owned by Mrs. Mary Slaughter. Caledonia is a Federal type stone house which was built circa 1812 and remained in the Dearing family until 1962 when Dr. and Mrs. Pullen purchased it for a retirement home. The house, constructed of field stone and mud mortar, has been restored to a corftfbrtable rr^Uern home, but without altering the original design and charm of a century and a half ago. To be seen here are lovely oak floors, simple man tels with their delicate fret work and 32 foot solid beams running the entire length of the structure. The house had been unoccupied for years prior to its purchase by the Pullens, for it was supposedly haunted by a “Crying Baby." The Pullens did not object to ghosts until they heard it one night themselves. However the "Crying Baby” left for a more unrestricted haunt after the roof was repaired. Among the interesting items to be found at Caledonia is a set of B & O dining car china bought at auction after pass Rummage Sale A reminder - Rummage sale Thursday and Friday in the basement of the Postoffice building conducted by members of the Auxiliary to the Washington Fire Company and Rescue Squad.

Chestnut Grove is a small house built in the late 1950’s with all of the convenience of a new house and all of the pei* sonality of an old one. The house is built of native field stone and chestnut lumber obtained from the old dining room at Skyland Hotel. A gorgeous handmade braided rug sets the stage for a host of Johnson family heirlooms re finished with love and care by Mrs. Johnson, who is quite in genious in refinishing and adapting old things to modern uses. The sweeping view of t h e mountains and the nearby pond are features which make this home so representative of Rap pahannock. Skyland Summer Resort was owned and operated by George Pollock from 1890 until 193i He had inherited it from his father who purchased Stony Man Mountain for a copper mine. When the copper vein proved inadequate for mining he utilized the property by turning it into a resort which he operated successfully until the entire area was taken into Shenandoah National Park. Activities of the resort centered around the old dining room where dances were held twice a week as well as recitals, plays, games and dining.

Solon, operating a 1958 Caterpillar tractor DW21pulk ing a pan attempted to make a left turn as a 1950 Chevrolet operated by Peter Tautfest of Austin, Texas started to pass. The Tautfest vehicle was crushed, but no injuries were sustained by the driver or his wife who was a passenger in the car. Tautfest was charged with failing to yield the right of way by Trooper W. A. Buntin who investigated. The tractor and pan were owned by McAllister Construe, tion Co. of Roanoke, the contractor who is working on the dual laning of Route 211 at the Massies Corner intersection.

Phelps. Also, to be considered first on the agenda, will be a tentative proposal to close the waters and marshes of Back Bay and its tributaries to goose shoot ing for the first two weeks of the season until the opening of duck hunting on Nov. 20. A public hearing to begin at 9;30 a.m. will give interested sportsmen an opportunity to present their views on the Back Bay item as well as on desired changes in the fish regulations. Persons unable to attend in person may present their recommendations in writing to the Executive Director who, in turn, will bring them to the attention of the Commission. Recommendations for changes in fish regulations not presented by Sept. 18 are not likely to be considered by the Commission for another year, since working new re gulations into existing seasons and published material in mid year is difficult.

Barksdale, Chairman, Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee, said today that farmers who are eligible to vote in the committee elections also have the right to nominate as candidates for committee membership any farmer who is eligible and willing to serve. Such petitions, each one nominating one farmer and signed by six * or more eligible voters, may be filed at the County Office any time before September 23. Eligible voters may sign as many petitions as they wish. Additional nominations may be made by the incumbent ASC community and county committees. *We want the best man available to serve on our ASC committees," Chairman Barksdale declared, "because the committee system is the backbone of farm programs — ^hose dealing with conservation of soil and water, as well as the price support activities for various commodities.

PANTHER TALES By Martha Shillingburg After a S-H-O-R-T, but funfilled summer, the doors of - RCHS opened last week to welcome us back. An unwelcome sight, however, was our treasured trophy case. Most of our trophies were practically demolished. According to Mr. Winfrey, the vandals “were kind (?) enough" to leave the plates, (inscriptions, etc.) of the trophies, which may make it possible to replace them. WELCOME to all eighth - graders and new students!!! We are also glad to welcome back all our “old* (no offense, please!) teachers, including Mrs. Louise Marshall who has returned to us after a year's absence. We also have several brand new members of the faculty: Mrs. Mary M. Cargill, music instructor; Mr. ; *A1“ Ballard, assistant coach and science instructor and Mr. David Layman, head coacty . PE and biology instructor. We , all wish you a most pleasant year at RCHS!! Speaking of teachers, Mrs. t Myra Wolf returned to us • Tuesday after spending the summer in Europe. We’re looking forward to hearing about all her adventures!! The1 seniors are eagerly awaiting the arrival of their class rings, which should be in this week.

All school news should be-turned In to Martha y'ShillingdJurg- by noon Monday. it-% TrafficInformation On School Opening Richmond, Va. .Withschools now open, Colonel C. W. Woodson, Jr,, Superintendent of State Police and Chairman of the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee, today advised motorists that four children were killed during the last school session in connection with boarding or leaving school buses. Noting that this was the worst such record since 1942, Colonel Woodson advised that failing to stop for a halted school bus is reckless driving under Virginia law (Code 46. 1-190 (f). This law requires a full stop upon meeting or overtaking, from any direction, a school bus halted to take on or discharge passengers. The motorist must remain halted until the road is clear of children and the bus is again in motion. The fact that the road may be four-lane and divided does not relieve motorists of this responsibility. Colonel Woodson also noted that municipal and other buses used to transport school children do not have the protection of this law unless they are painted yellow and bear required signs. “While it cannot be said that the children struck were all entirely without fault, the motorist has a great responsibility and must be prepared to do more than his share to prevent these tragedies,” he said. “The Immaturity of children requires that they receive special attention.” 1 At the same time, Raymond L. Wimbish, State Supervisor of Pupil Transportation, reported that the 540,000 children using Virginia school buses will make about 80,000,000 road crossings during the school year. "Despite all protection we can give them, children are vulnerable. Parents have a big responsibility in their safety education and can accomplish much in giving them added protection/ he said. Feeder Calf Sales Reach New Milestone The half-millionth calf will go through the Virginia feeder calf sales sometime during the 1965 fall sale season. To date, something over 465,000 calves have been sold through the Virginia sales since their inception back in 1938. With over 40,000 calves expected for this fall series, the halfmillionth calf should be sold sometime in October, says K. C. Williamson, beef cattle spe cialist at Virginia Tech. The 1965 fall sales will open at Orange on Sept. 21, with 36 sales scheduled between then and November 4. The number of cales consigned to the sales is up slightly at most locations except in the upper Shenandoah Valley and Northern Virginia where drought conditions have caused some early movements of calves and yearlings. Weather and the consequent pasture conditions have rang ed from average to excellent over the state except in the above mentioned drought areas. The average weight of calves is expected to be back up to near normal, which is around 470 pounds for steer calves and 435 pounds for heifers. This will still be below the all time high year of 1958 when steers averaged 480 lbs and heifers 442 pounds. The last two years, which have been dry in Virginia, steer calves have averaged around 460 pounds and heifers 427 pounds. Prices are expected to be higher this fall than last year when steer calves in Virginia averaged $23.50 and heifers $18.75 Der hundred. ly long enough, says Williamson, because it seems every one likes to use the last blade of fall grass and then rush to move the cattle before bad weather. After it starts get ting late in the fall there is also the added urge to move the cattle before all the buy ers get filled up, which can make for a real mad scramble In an effort to spread the flow of replacement cattle over as long a period as possible, the fall yearling sales will open a little earlier than usual in Virginia this year, with the first sale scheduled for Rich mond on Sept. 8. Approximate ly 17,000 yearlings, most of which will be steers, are ex pected for the 20 sales schedul Trucks wait to dump gravel on a new section of Route 211 near Massies Corner as work goes on according to schedule. Pat Markham, engineer, has the situation well in hand and will leave this week for work on another construction site. i ed to run concurrently with the calf sales, winding up at. Buena Vista on November 4. It is expected that the aver age weight of yearling steers will be up 10 or 12 pounds over the all time low of 1964 when the yearlings sold through special graded sales averaged 707 pounds p r head. Martin F. Strate. executive secretary of the VFginiaBeef Cattle Association, has established his new office at Harrisonburg, with sec retar ial help. If you fail to get your list of the Virginia sales, be sure to write to Martin, says Williamson. It takes the cooperative effort of a lot of people to sell I between $6,000,000 and $7,000 300 worth of feeder cattle in only a few short weeks, and i :he fellows who grade the calves and yearlings are the unsung heroes of this kind of ' marketing system. It is no small job to grade 57,000 calves and yearlings, especial stamp him on the back. The specialist adds, “If you have ever wondered why the graders are the biggest, strongest looking fellows around a special sale, it is ! because they take more abuse ! han almost anyone else. They | nave to have strong constitu ions to stay with it and get j kicked by the cattle, fussed at by the producers, rushed by the market operators, argued with by the buyers, and told by their supervisors to drive 100 miles after 10 p.m. and be ready to grade at 6 o’clock the next morning over yonder."

FBI Message To Law Enforcement Officials Young thugs and teenage criminals may be pressing their luck by increasing their violent escapades while blaming society for their faults. It appears that the public is Some 500 years ago, Gutenberg printed some 300 copies of the Bible, only 47 of which are known to exist now. Complete copies bring $500,000 or more. ■ . ■■■ 1 beginning to gag on the steady sociological diet of excusing the conduct of teenage hoodlums because “society has failed them." Resort communi ties racked by senseless riots and citizens who cannot venture from their homes with out being assaulted and beaten are getting fed up with pamp ered and insolent youth gangs. Some courts in the troubled areas are taking a more realistic approach in handling those Involved in these outbreaks. New laws provid ing stiffer penalties are being enacted in a few places. We can only hope that author! ties everywhere will follow this trend. Certainly, the mere desire of young miscreants to have a "blast' or to "let off steam" is no excuse to ravage a community and to maim and terrorize its residents. That holiday riots and similar antics by carousing youths have evoked widespread concern is not surpris ing. It is surprising, however that strong public reaction did not come sooner. For several years, the increasing volume of criminal acts by young people—spurred on by the lenient treatment received— has presented a clear baromet ric reading of whatwearenow witnessing. For instance, from I960' through 1964, the percentage of young age-group arrests for homicide, forcible rape, aggravated assault, rob bery, burglary, larceny, and auto theft more than doubled the population increase per centage of the same group. Arrests of persons under 18 for simple assault rose 79 percent, drunkenness and re lated violations 52 percent, disorderly conduct 18 percent, and concealed weapons 17 per cent during the same 5 years In the light of this shameful XEROX Copying Service DUPLICATING ALL IMPORTANT PAPERS 354 per copy Warren Paint and Supply Co. 415 East Main Street Front Royal, Virginia picture, we cannot say that we were not forewarned. The Immediate objective, of course, is to put a stop to these rumbles and mass vand alism. Meanwhile, theques tion puzzling most people is what caused the principles and morals of some of our youth to degenerate to near Animal level. Recognizing the problem comes much easier than its solution. However, of all the factors involved, I am convinced one of the most damaging is the false teach lng which tends to blame society for all the frustrations woes, and inconveniences, real or imaginary, visited upon our young people. Teenagers, and their parents, have been subjected to a foolhardy theory which condones rebellious conduct against authority, law and order, or any regulatory measures which restrict their whims, wishes, desires, and activit ies. This astonishing belief has spread into the schoolroom, the living room, the courtroom, and now into the streets of our Nation in the form of wild, drunken brawls. No doubt, society has failed our youth, but not in the way many seem to think. Rather, the dereliction has been in che failure to teach them the meaning of discipline, restraint, self-respect, and r» spect for law and order and the rights of others. Consequently, the lesson now is both painful and costly.

It’s fun to pick and choose the items you want., to be sure you get the most for your money and the best foods for your family. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of experience to make the proper selections.

Generally speaking, the excessive waste in preparation and inferior taste of wilted, immatured, overripe or deteriorated products make the best quality actually your best buy. For example, bananas .. ready-to-eat and flecked with brown .. may sell for only 5 cents a pound. But if you can’t use them within a day or two, they aren’t worth anything to you.

Diamond mining normally requires complicated equipment, but the biggest known diamond was extracted with a penknife, the National Geographic says. In 1905, a mine superintendent in South Africa noticed a glimmer on the wall of a mine and, after a few moments of digging, picked out a one-pound six-ounce giant, the Cullinan. The gem is set in the British Royal Scepter. Are We Running Out Of Water? Are we running out of water? Let's explore this frightening thought. I am a Food Technologist and work with food processing and food proces sors. I’m concerned that I may be out of a job and you may be out of commercially processed food products unless everything possible is done to conserve and preserve our vital water supply. Most processors use a tremendous quantity of water. First, the plant must be clean ed up, the workers’ hands scrubbed, and the soil wash ed off the fruit and vegetables These are then peeled and washed again and also carried about the plant suspended in water. They are blanched in boiling water, and water is added to the canned food. The cans are rinsed, cooked in steam made from water, and cooled in water. So you see, water is vital to my business. Are we running out of water The folks from Rutgers University have summarized the water shortage problem well. Most scientists agree that the amount of water on and in the earth has diminished little within recorded history. It is very difficult to destroy water. No matter what you do to it, water eventually comes back. All the water we have today is old used water, but mostly purified by nature, it is the same water that was used by our ancestors. Some of it is the same water used by our contemporaries. For example the water we drink today may have fallen as rain a season ago. Previous to that, these same molecules of water may have evaporated from the ocean. Perhaps a month or a year before that, the ocean re ceived some of this as waste water from an industrial plant. While we will have enough water to meet our needs for a number of years, we will not have it available at the right Read the Want Ada! It Pays! time and place or it will not be of the right quality unless we build many more water storage reservoirs and do a better job of treating our waste water before discharging it in to our streams. Industry and agriculture are the major users of water in the United States. The largest single use of water is for irrigation of food crops. About 18,000 gallons of water are used each day for and by each person in the nation ( to produce his automobile, aircondi tion his office, to water his lawn, to satisfy his thirst, for example). A« our population increases the total number of gallons of water needed will increase, but the amount of water available will remain the same. Yes, you read right. The number of people will increase so the number of gallons of water needed will increase, but the amount of water available will remain the same, j Who pollutes water? Well, jwe all do to a degree. Each iperson contributes about half a pound of human waste each day. As the population increases, so does the total torr nage of waste that must be handled by waste treatment plants. The pollution problem is growing faster than the ability to store clean, unpolluted water. How safe is our water supply; U. S. Public Health Service standards for water quality are based on chemical, physical, and biological qualities. In most cases, the standard of each state rloselv follows r those of the public health sep vice. Any community with a muni cipal water supply can be assured its water supply is safe. In certain communities the chemicals used in the process of purifying the water under certain conditions may inter act and influence the taste and odor of the water. This quality may annoy the consumer, but it does not mean the water is unsafe to drink. Water is purified in 3 ways: Self-purification through normal oxidation and dilution in the stream, chemical and phy sical treatment by muni cipality, and biological and physical treatment of wastes discharged into the stream. The fact that water supplies are safe and adequate for todays’s needs will not protect us in the future. As thepopula tion increases, the need for water will increase. We must consider the many possibilities open to us to conserve our water supply. What can be done? Pollution is a people-made problem. There is no need to point a finger at anyone. All of us, by our very presence, contribute to pollution. Pollution abatement is everybody’s job. We can all insist on a cleanup of our streams, and we owe it to our children to introduce and allocate money to build more reservoirs to catch the water from melting snow and rainfall. We can all do our small part to prevent contamination by not thoughtless ly discarding raw filth into our streams. (fest funeral |Jarl0rs H. C.

The Social Security Amendments of 1965, recently signed into law by President Johnson make several changes in the social security law as it, applies to women. Here are the most important changes and what they can mean to you. A widow may now elect to receive social security bene fits as early as the age of 60. These benefits will be reduced to take account of the longer time they will be paid. Previously, the widow of an insured worker had to wait until she reached 62 before she could get widow’s benefits. A divorced woman may now receive wife’s or widow’s bene fits under the following conditions: if she was married to her former husband for at least 20 years; if she has been receiving at least one-half of her support from her former husband ( or there is in effect a written agreement or court order for substantial contribu tions); and if her former husband had worked long enough Our word ‘frank’ which means ‘free mail’ came to us from the French ‘franc’ which means free.

A son or daughter of a retired, disabled, or deceased worker may now receive child’s benefits up to the age of 22, if he or she is unmarried and a full-time student. The mother of such a student, how ever, will stop receiving mother’s benefits, just as before, when her youngest child reaches 18 (unless he has been disabled since before age 18) or marries. A widow 60 or over whose benefits have stopped because she remarried may now receive benefits on her deceased husband’s account (in the amount of 50 percent of his benefit) even though she is married again. If she is entitled to benfits on her new husband’s account, she will receive an amount equal to the high of the two benefits. Arid if the second marriage ends, she may receive her original widow’s benefit again. Women 72 or older who were not eligible for benefits under the old law because they or their husbands had not worked long enough under social security, may now be eligible for a special monthly benefit based on a shorter period of work. Some of these older women will be eligible for social security because they worked for a few months them selves; others may be able to receive wife’s or widow’s benefits based on their husbands’ work. Waitresses, beauticians, and other service workers who re:eive at least $20 in cash tips during a month will be able to get social security credit for that income beginning in Janu ary 1966. The new law requires that tips amounting to $20 or more in a month be reported to the employer, and that the social security tax on them be paid.
