Little Girl’s Birthday Results In Store Reopening at Chester Gap The mountain top at Chester Gap was teeming with activity Saturday morning when the country store there which had been closed several months reopened under new management as a birthday gift to a little Iranian girl. The well stocked store was a third birthday present to Miss Katayoun Elloise Stout *from her parents Mr. and Mrs. Perry W. Stout of Chester Gap. An opening ceremony with ribbon cutting took place at 9 a.m. Saturday, October 2, •1965 in the building formerly owned by M. A. Greeley, recently purchased by Mr. and Mrs. Fred McCleary who have rebuilt and redecorated it. This story had a sad beginning in September 1962 in Tehran, Iran. Katayoun was a victim of the terrible earthquake which struck north of Tehran that year. Her father was killed in the quake and her mother died when Katayoun was born three weeks later without telling anyone who she was. Mr. and Mrs. Stout were with the American Embassy in Iran at the time of the quake, and Katayoun was placed in their care when she was three weeks old. They named her Katayoun in honor of the first queen of the United Tribes which formed the Kingdom of Iran. At the time of registration of birth she was given the name of FotovatFahm which means kindness and wisdom. Katayoun came to the United States in March 1963 and was adopted by the Stouts in Tulsa, Oklahoma. They were then moved to Guam where she became a naturalized citizen of the U. S. on December 10, 1963. nci new pdi ciiio welt 11 ailo — ferred to Saipan with the Trust Territory Government and Katayoun spent the next twenty months learning to talk, climb, swim and dance the polka, among other things, in a lovely tropical setting. Mrs. Stout and Katayoun returned to the States in July of '65, coming to Chester Gap in August on the 20th wedding anniversary of the Stouts. The idea of opening the store came when they arrived here expecting to buy milk and groceries at the mountain store, only to find the business had been closed for many months and the building in disrepair. Saturday was the happy finale to six weeks of hectic activity ^vhen Katayoun cut a blue rib*bon marking the opening of the new venture into business. Assisting in the ceremony was Mr. Ahmad Ghezelbash, who is with the Iranian Economic Mission in Washington, D. C. Miss Rajieh Rezazadeh of the same mission, also attended the opening.

ASC Committee Elections in Progess Farmers are given a "lastminute” reminder about important ASC committee elections now being held in Rappahannock County. Ballots were mailed from the county office on Friday, October 1, 1965. The elections are to choose farmer-committeemen who will serve for the next year as local administrators of national farm-action programs. According to H. S. Barksdale, Chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee, these ASC committeemen have broad important program responsibilities, which makes it all the more urgent that representative farmers be elected to the job. Programs administered by the committeemen include the Agricultural Conservation Program, acreage allotments, marketing quotas, commodity loans, the feed grain program, the voluntary wheat program, the livestock feed program, the National Wool program, and farm storage facility loans ( and other duties are assigned to the committees by the Secretary of Agriculture as the need arises. Explaining the election procedure, the Chairman said that each year qualified voters -- farmers who are eligible to take part in one or more of the farm programs which the committees administer - elect a community committee from among their own number. The chairman, vice chairman, and regular member of this committee also serve as delegates to a county convention, where the ASC county committee is elected. Throughout Virginia, eligible voters will vote by mail ballots this week for community committeemen. To be counted, ballots must be postmarked by midnight October 13 or be returned to the ASCS county office in person by that date. Chairman Barksdale urged all qualified voters to be sure to cast their ballots. Eligibility to vote or hold office as a committeeman is not restricted by reason of race, color, creed, or national origin.

Boldridge of Rixeyville celebrated his 80th birthday September 28, 1965, and as has been the practice for the past several years, he was entertained with a birthday dinner by Irva M. Poe at Lom-Bar-Dy Tea Room. Amissville. Doc’ Boldridge Marks 80th Birthday, And 56 Years Of Practicing Medicine “I have worn out a half iozen horses and twelve automobiles since I have been practicing medicine," said Dr. J. R. Boldridge of Rixeyville, who just celebrated his sightieth birthday on September 28, 1965. “And I mean wore them out, not traded them in”, he added. Doc was reluctant to talk about himself as he prepared to have dinner Tuesday at Lom-Bar-Dy Tea Room in Amissville, when this newspaper editor dropped by for an interview and picture. With a few questions to urge him on, he continued, "At my birth, my mother was attended by Dr. E. W. Brown; he brought me into this world. When Dr. Brown died, I was the attending physician, signing the certificate, and I conducted the Masonic Rites at his burial.” "I have encountered every condition and situation possible during my 56 years of practice, and many of the incidents you would not believe if I told you of them. One half certainly doesn’t know how the other half lives. “Many times in bygone years it took me all day to get a patient from this area to the hospital in Charlottesville. When you went by horse and buggy to a home, transported the patient to Culpeper by the same conveyance, waited for a train and took him to Charlottesville, went by ambulance (a spring buggy) from the station to the hospital, attended him there, then returned home □y the same means it was well past midnight. “I bought my first automobile, a Model T. Ford in 1915. My present automobile has 120,000 miles on it and the last one rolled up on 172,000 before it gave out.” Unfortunately Doc got a dose bf his own medicine two years ago when he fell at his home and broke his pelvis. He was hospitalized for sixty days, and in that time, says he, “I almost lost my mind.” He nade a remarkable recovery however, and was “pill pushing" and “needling” folks again. I’ll never forget the time I had a strep throat and called Doc. Penicillin was new on the drug market and I had never had any. I knew it was given by injection and asked him if it would make my arm sore, for if it would I wanted it in my left one since I was right handed. Doc chuckled with glee and said no, it won’t make your arm sore. Then he said roll over, and he shot me in the hip. Dr. Boldridge was born September 28, 1885 at Brown’s Store in Culpeper County. He was graduated from the Medical College of Virginia, Richmond, in 1909, then interned for a year before beginning his practice at Rixeyville. He was married to Miss Ann Marie Hess, a graduate nurse of Chesterfield County. She died in July 1960. They had four children: James Russell, Jr. of Disputants, who is with the Department of Justice at Petersburg, Dr. William Franklin Boldridge, a professor of chemistry at Randolph-Macon College at Ashland, Edward who is at the home place and John who farms near Rixeyville. Doc has been affiliated with the Culpeper County Health Department almost continuously since 1912. He is on the staff of Winchester Memorial Hospital, Culpeper Memorial Hospital and Fauquier Hospital. He is a member of Washington Masonic Lodge 78 A F & AM and Fairfax Masonic Lodge 43 AF & AM, Culpeper.

Rains May Delay Foliage Color Change Field reports from the three administrative districts within Shenandoah National Park indicate less than norinal fall color change during tihe past several days, accord ing to Superintendent R. TaylorHoski ns. IHoskins reported that mounta in rains may have retarded the annual transformation some degree and as a result the overall activity thus far this year may be a few days behind that of a year ago at th is time. Even so, fall signs are definitely appearing in the red oi' the dogwood and Virginia creeper, usually the first to ta ke on the shades of autumn. These are intermingled with some yellow beginning to tinge the leaves of the chestnut oaks, tulip poplars and hickories, Hoskins said, adding that predicted cool nights and sunny days may well bring out more pronounced changes during the next week.

Evaluation Given on Shenandoah River Data from the first year of an intensive three year evaluation of the Shenandoah River sport fishery reveals heavy fishing pressure and excellent fishing success, lacking only quality, not quantity, according to Fish Research Biologist Eugene W. Surber who heads the project. Based on aerial and ground surveys a total of over 76,000 fisherman hours were tallied on the 57.7 mile stretch of the river Hander study during the 1964 fishing season. From the analysis of creel census information it is estimated that these anglers caught 296,000 fish during the period. This total included an estimated 58,500 small mouth bass, 84,000 sunfish and 100,000 channel catfish. The season bass take per mile of river ranged from 190 to 655 for the different sections sampled. Fisherman hours per stream mile varied from 1,094 to 1,712 with experimental aerial, counts indicating fishingpressures'as high as 2,933 hours on some one mile stretches. Fishing pressure was heaviest during May and July. Creel surveys revealed a preponderance of small bass under 12 inches. This was also borne out by fish .population samples which revealed excellent reproduction. Fishermen were found keeping smallmouths down to six inches in length, apparently cropping the majority of the Fish before they reached adult size. The 12 inch minimum CLORE FUNERAL HOME ^ “The Home of Thoughtful Service” \ Culpeper, Va. Phone 825-2361 H Ambulance Service With Oxygen size limit which went into effect early in 1965 was designed to remedy this situation. The evaluation of fishing pressure, fishing success and their effects on fish populations in the Shenandoah River system will be continued through 1966. Aerial surveys which have proved more accurate in measuring fishing pressure are being used exclusively this year.

Radiological Monitor Training Class The first class of the Fall session of Radiological Monitor Training Courses will be held Monday, October 18th, at 7:30 p.m. at Civil Defense Headquarter, 2nd floor, Municipal Building in Culpeper. The Radiological Monitor Course provides training in the detection, measuring, recording and reporting of radioactive intensity in Culpeper County in case of a massive nuclear attack upon the United States. Ten fallout monitoring stations are either in existence, or will be provided, in the general areas of Jeffersonton, Brandy Station, Lignum, Richardsville, Mitchells, Smiths Market, Griffinsburg, Gourdvine Church, Rixeyville and the center of town in Culpeper. Each station must be manned by four qualified Radiological Monitors. Each qualified monitor will be encouraged to take his immediate family to the station with him when reporting for actual duty after a nuclear attack where they will be well protected against intense radioactivity. The monitor course consists of 16 hours of instruction given from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for two and two-thirds weeks. The total requirement for monitors in Culpeper County is 150. Ninety-nine monitors are presently trained and available for this duty. Since Radiological Monitor training and participation in tests, refresher courses and actual duty performance are of a volunteer nature, the success of this program depends upon the support of all citizens of Culpeper County. Applications forms to apply for this training are available at the County Clerk’s Office, Town Manager’s Office, Sec ond National Bank, Culpeper National Bank and the ASC Office on South Main Street. C. V. Robinson, Col. USAF (Ret), Chief, Radiological Services ICC Allows Reduced Rates on “Big Johns” A significant decision by the Interstate Commerce Commission to allow the Southern Railway to continue its greatly reduced grain freight rates in "Big John* 100-ton freight cars has just been announced. The rates have been in effect since May 11, 1963 and average only about 60 per cent of the rates formerly being used. The commission had found, earlier, that the rates were too low but upon appeal to the Supreme Court the Commission had been instructed to review their findings and upon reconsideration approved Southern’s rates. Farm Bureau, and many other interested parties, had used their influence to attempt to have the lower rates preserved. The lower rates can have a significant effect on the livestock industry of ^the South by lowering feed costs. The decision will have a beneficial effect on the feed grain producing areas of the Mid-West. Agricultural economists assert that the lowered freight rates can save up to $40 million dollars for southern feed users each year.

Main St Culpeper, Va. License No. 1622 From The I Home Agent’s Pen By Doris Daugherty There are safety signals to be observed in running a household, just as in driving a car. Learn to recognize household “red lights” which warn of dangers that can threaten the family’s well-being. For example, a “red light” in the kitchen may be a grease splash on the floor...which invites a slip and fall. So when you see it, stop...and scrub! The normal traffic patterns of daily living can create new hazards, so the homemaker must be alert instead of assuming that yesterday’s “safe" house will remain safe. Any of the following “red lights” may flash as you go about your housework, so make sure you don’t run right through them to risk catastrophe; Crumbs in the oven. Fire Commissioners warn that food crumbs have caused major fires. It seems such a small chore to wipe out the oven with a damp, sudsy sponge. Yet failure to take this little precaution, right after the meal, can cause real trouble later when the oven is reheated and forgotten bits of dried food ignite. Slipper step-stool. Make it part of the daily KP routine to swab the steps and dry them thoroughly. Only clean surfaces provide safe footing. Dust-dimmed light bulbs and fixtures. Keep them clean with a sudsy wiping, so you can prepare food and wash dishes under adequate light. Guessing in dim light is no substitute for knowing that food and utensils are clean and safe. Take the same precautions with all reading lights... especially those which the children use for studying. Sliding scatter rugs. The und ersides of these potential back breakers should be scrubbed occasionally with dense suds to remove dust and wax. Only clean backing can grip the floor securely. Jumbled medicine cabinet. Remove contents, then wash shelves and containers. Replace jars and bottles, making sure that labels are wiped clean so they can lye read by sleepy eyes during a night time emergency. For safety, dispose of “stale* drugs. Heating pad cover. Always launder the removable slipcover in hot suds after used by an ill member of the household. Pressing it with a hot iron is an added precaution. Remember that germs can be transmitted by a heating pad as easily as by soiled sheets or pillow cases. ■ Chipped kitchenware. Tiny cracks and crevices in enamel: ware, china, and glassware allow bacteria to collect, then contaminate food. Examine utensils and serving dishes carefully when you wash up, and discard the “casualties.” HINTS Fall Dessert Frozen concentrated orange juice is in especially plentiful supply this fall and here from the Consumer and Marketing Service of the U. S. Department of Agriculture is a good way to use it in a frothy dessert called “Orange Whip”. Using thawed orange juice concentrate as the liquid, prepare unflavored gelatin. Chill until slightly thickened, then beat mixture until light and fluffy and double in volume. Spoon into individual molds or custard cups and chill until firm. One p a c ka ge gelatin yields 4 servings. Good served with spice cake, ginger bread or cookies.

State Fish Law Changes Minor The Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries proposed oBly minor changes in fishing regulations for the 1966 season following a public hearing in Richmond September 18, according to Executive Director Chester F. Phelps. Among the changes was a proposal to open Pounding Mill Run in Alleghany County to fishing. This stream had been closed when it served as a public water Supply, but this use has now been discontinued. A proposal was made to allow fishing on Sunday in all impounded waters in Botetourt County in addition to the James River and Carvins Cove Reservoir where Sunday fishing is already permitted. It was also proposed that the sucker dip netting season in Rockbridge County be made to open February 15 and close May 15 to correspond with the season in surrounding counties. Another proposal adds traps and pots to the list of illegal gear which cannot be used in the Roanoke and Dan Rivers in Halifax, Charlotte, Campbell and Pittsylvania Counties and in Falling River in Campbell County. This1 proposal was described as a SEE US FOR CHRYSLER - PLYMOUTH INTERNATIONAL RUSSELL BROS., INC. U. S. HIGHWAY 522 FLINT HILL, VA.

The Commission proposed that fishing in the 60 acre trout lake and some three and one-half miles of Big Brumley Creek on its Hidden Valley Wildlife Management Area be restricted to artificial lures and barbless hooks. Current plans call for opening the area to angling at noon April 2, and a special minimum size limit is contemplated. An official proposal was drafted to close the waters, and marshes of Back Bay and its tributaries to goose shooting until the opening of the duck season November 20. Commission will take final action on the fish regulation proposals and others at their next meeting in Richmond October 15. How Patriotic Are Young Americana? The recent rush to the altar prompted by President Johnson’s Aug. 26 deadline on draft exemptions for married men raised a question as to whether the nation’s youth today are as patriotic as the .youth of other generations. There are arguments on both sides of. '.the question. But the best answer probably would be tbftt if the modern young American is on the average as patriotic as his parents or grandparents, it must be a miracle. There are a great many things work ing against love of country today. Especially against the kind of love that make men willing to fight and die for their nation on a distant battlefield. The particular nature of the war in Viet Nam fails to inspire in many the flame of patriotism kindled in youth by other conflicts in which the United States has been in volved. It Is a war in which there are no battle fronts, little opportunity for personal glory, no key territorial ob jectives offering the chance for immediate victories Weekly Farm Price Outlook (This is th» way prospects for Virginia farm prices looked to the Virginia Dept, of Agriculture on Friday. The Department offers it to one can predict prices and be right farmers with the warning that no all the time.) Eggs Little change is expected in egg prices during the next few weeks; however, long range prospects are more favorable. October production likely will be at or slightly below last year’s level. Potential layers (existing flocks plus pullets not of laying age) are running about 3 per cent below last year's levels, with 13 per cent fewer flock replacements available. Farm prices last week in Virginia were: grade A large mostly 40-41 cents and mediums 35 - 36. Large white eggs in New York were 40 1/2 - 43 cents and mediums 36 37ce"“-- Broilers Broiler prices are weak, and JSDA has initiated two programs intended to move suralus stocks. These programs will supply aroilers for school lunches, and allow subsidies for exaorts to certain countries. Current broiler marketings are running approximately 12 aer cent above a year earlier -- an all time record high. Supplies will continue at this aigh level well into 1966. Farm prices last week were ■nostly 13 cents in Virginia, and 15-15.4 cents in DelMar Va. North Carolina and Georgia live at farm base evaluations were mostly 12 cents. Miss Rajirh Rezazadeh and Ahmad Ghezelbash of the Iranian Economic Mission in Washington, D.C. (standing), and Mrs. Harry Mhdden of Alexandria and Boston, Va., Mrs. Perry Stout, her daughter Katayoun Stout and Mrs. Ruby Keheley of Chester Gap were present for the opening of Stout’s Mountain Store in Chester Gap Saturday morning. Mrs. Madden is Katayoun’s new aunt and Mrs. Keheley is her new grandmother. and only the most obscure longterm goals to aim for as the 'ultimate victory.* In addition, there is the knowledge of the Korean conflict. This was tactically a different type of war. But it was one in which thousands of Americans were killed and wounded for a seemingly worth less cause. Youths have a hard time understanding the necessity for such sacrifice of life when the fighting apparently leaves things about as they were. Conditions at home aren’t conducive to patriotism, ^ eith er. This isn’t a total war, in which everybody has his'shou! der to wheel, making sacri fices for his country. To the draft-age youth it might well seem that all but the unfortu nate few who get drafted and sent to Viet Nam are living it up. As long as the vast majori ty of people remain untouched or perhaps even profit by the war, he may ask why he should be expected to feel gung-ho about laying his life on the line. Also, there are many subtle and forthright attacks on the idea of patriotism. Youths seldom see their parents and other adults expressing strong national senti ment. And t hey are increasingly exposed to the influence of professors and other intel lectuals many of whom brand patriotism as old-fashioned and fringing upon lunacy. All told, this just isn’t the climate to induce patriotism in young Americans. It’s a climate that imposes a grave handicap on the country in this struggle for survival against Communistic tyranny.

L. Eller Jr., Animal Science Department, Virginia Tech Reckoning day is close at hand for most of the 420,000 beef cows in Virginia. Fall is here and most calves will be weaned and weighed during the next couple of months. Whether a cow has earned a profit for the year or winds up on the red side of the ledger will be determined by the value of her calf at weaning time. The weight and grade of each calf will determine its value. This is the season for the progressive cattleman to evaluarp rhp cows in his hprd and make decisions on cows to cull, heifers to retain as herd replacements, and whether to keep or cull herd bulls. Some 10,000 calves have been (or will be) officially weighed and graded by the Virginia Beef Cattle Improvement Association on the farms of its members. Accurate performance records will be a valuable tool to these cattlemen in improving their herds. For cattlemen who are not BCLA members, there is still a lot in the way of improvement that can be gained through weights and grades taken at weaning. Calves can be identified to point out good and poor producing dams. A better job of selecting replacement heifers can be done, and certainly a more accurate job of culling moneylosing cows can be accomplished. Any cow that has not produced a calf valuable enough at weaning to pay all expenses of keeping her plus a profit to the cattleman should go to the butcher and be replaced by a heifer from the top end. Also, any cow which turns up open when pregnancy tested after calves are weaned should get a tour to the butcher pen. The older, faster gaining heifers of good conformation should be retained for herd replacements. Performance records are especially valuable here. Normally the top 40 percent of the heifer calves should be kept. They should be weighed as yearlings and any slow growers should be culled. The balance should be calved out as two-year olds and given a rigid culling after their first calves are weaned, according to performance. Weaning time is not merely a time when calves are weaned it is a time of evaluation — a reckoning day. The smart cattleman will take every advantage of this season. , Non-BCIA members are .urged to identify cows in the herd prior to the next calving season and join either the official BCIA program or the Commercial BCIA program. State Issues Traffic Death Toll Report Richmond, Va.Through August of this year, Virginia experienced 683 traffic deaths as compared to 688 for the same period of 1964, Colonel C. W. Woodson, Jr., Chairman of the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee and Superintendent of State Police announced today. Considerable reductions of from 112 to 75 in June and from 93 to 78 were experienced. August deaths stood at 121 for both years. Here, Colonel Woodson noted that both in Virginia and nationally August has replaced December as the high-death month. This occurred nationally in 1962 and has held true in all of the following years. In Virginia, last year was the first in which August deaths exceeded those of December. Colonel Woodson agreed with the National Safety Council in that heavy summer traffic and school vacations were factors and added, "Times a re prosperous and people have the money to travel. Consequently, we see heavy and dangerous traffic on summer weekends and I believe this is Increased by the current Interest in boating. People must get to water and back," He said also that he felt that in the past the public received more warnings of traffic dangers in December than during the other months and that there is the possibility of this finally having some effect. Despite the rise in August deaths, he said, the last three months still are the most dangerous of any quarter year. Deaths are lowest in January and February, increase steadily to a peak in the summer months and hold this level through the rest of the year. Traffic volumes were approximately 5.9 percent above those of last year. SOCIAL SECURITY AND YOU Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, social security district manager in Winchester, today cautioned area residents about a new j type of confidence man who has appeared in some sections of the country since passage of the “medicare’ provisions of the social security program. Mrs. Daly stated that these confidence men often represent themselves as employees of the Social Security Administration and say that they are authorized to sell and receive payment for health insurance ! in advance, at a discount. These men attempt tp swindle elderly people by confusing them about the new health insurance program, Mrs. Daly added. Particularly for the person 65 or older, she declared, the first line of/defense against these swiffolers is accurate information about both kinds of health insurance and medical insurance. The most accurate source of such information is the social security office at Winchester. The telephone number is 667-1511. Medicare information kits are now being mailed to social security and railroad retirement beneficiaries. Each kit contains a booklet that tells the beneficiary what health services he or she gets under the basic hospital insurance plan and what additional supplementary protection is available under the voluntary medical insurance program. An equally important line of defense against such swindlers, Mrs. Daly said, is the use of caution. Should a stranger implying that he works for social security call on you, always ask for this identification. If he asks for a fee to obtain a “medicare discount’ or an increase in your monthly cash benefits, he’s not a social security representative. Bonafide social security representatives never resent your precautions. Nor do they charge or accept fees for trying to help you. People 65 and older on the social security or railroad retirement rolls do not need to take any action to This weekly visitor gob a worm reception in every family drde Your hometown newspaper is friend, counselor and guide to every member of the family.

But they will need to let the Social Security Administration know that they want to take the voluntary medical insurance by completing and returning the enrollment card mailed to them with their information kit. People over 65 who are eligible for social security benefits but who haven’t applied for them because they are still working should get in touch with the nearest social security district office to apply as soon as possible. Even if they can’t collect right now because their current earnings from employment are too high for them to quality for benefits, they will be eligible for hospital insurance when it starts next July. People over 65 who have never worked under social security--or who have not worked long enough to qualify for social security benefits — will need to apply for both hospital insurance and the voluntary medical insurance. Veterans News As a prevention against failure to receive VA compensation- or pension checks recipients are warned to notify the VA Office where their claims file is located when a change of address occurs. Changes of addresses made with the post office only may not continue the government checks beyond a brief period; therefore, it will eventually be necessary to inform the Veterans Administration of the, change. A change of address sent to the Treasury Depart-' ment or VA Disbursing Office does not always make a timely correction and in some cases does not provide the office having the claims file with the new address. This, again, may effect receipt of the check. To make a proper change of address with the Veterans Administration, either mail them a completed and signed VA Form 572, or direct a signed card or letter to them, identifying yourself by claim number or service serial number, and giving them the old and new addresses. In cases where the widow, dependent parent, or dependent child makes a change of address, be sure that the veteran is identified, not the dependent, as VA records do not file or index cases by the dependent’s name. veterans or Dependents, in receipt of compensation or pension, who plan to make a temporary change of address out of state but who do not desire to have the claims file transferred to the jurisdiction of the VA Office in the state where they are going, should indicate in their change of address that the move is a temporary one and the claims file will remain at the original office. This is desirable in many cases, as a transferred file is subject to review and possible new, unfavorable rating action when transferred. VA Forms 572, Request for Change of Address, may be obtained from any office of the Division of War Veterans' Claims. 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.rn. and will gladly give more details on this subject or any other matter connected with veterans’ affairs.
