Arts, Crafts Review Accomplishments Evaluation of the recent Arts and Crafts Show was the topic of consideration at the regular meeting of the Rappahannock Arts and Crafts Project on Tuesday morning. Members of the Project expressed satisfaction with the interest shown in the Exhibit and with the number of visitors, in spite of the fact there were fewer items on display than last year. This was to be expected since most of the work shown this year was new work which had been done in the span of one year only. It is still the ambition of the Project to get everyone in the county who has an Art and Craft hobby to display at the Show once a year. If folks want to sell items next year some provision will be made and they should start now working toward that end. A silver offering amounting to $11.00 was given to the project to defer expenses and this paid for new display stands and postage. The Project wishes to thank everyone who chipped in with this donation. They want to thank also the following: everyone who displayed at the Show, everyone who served on committees and as hostesses, the Rappahannock Library, the Culpeper Planing Mill and Leggetts of Culpeper for giving discounts on supplies and to Mr. Aubrey Jenkins and Mr. Lucio Kilby for donating labor and lumber for display stands^ and the Rappahannock News for publicity coverage. donate may do so by bringing a signed permission from parent or guardian.

Hunters Reminded Of Fire Dangers Each fall fire fighters are plagued: by an outbreak of forest tfires caused by careless hunters. A carelessly dropped match, a lighted cigarette butt, an abandoned wa i m ing fire,* or smoking game from a den tree are the common hunter mistakes.

Route 618 near Woodville Thursday, November 4. About 2:30 he made a break over an embankment. A guard fired at him twice, but he managed toi escape into nearby brush. With the local Sheriff’s department, State Police and| guards patrolling until late' into the night, Taylor hid out j on Bessie Belle Mountain. The j I search by officers resumed. ' again early Friday morning; ; and continued throughout the| day. A guard spotted him once in the mountain. Taylor secured a pair of ! pants from a dump and Friday; ! night stopped at an unidenti■ fied farm house where he was given a hot meal and a change of clothes by people who were unaware he was a hunted man. New Construction at Skyline Ski Area Plans are currently underway for improvements at the Skyline Ski Area for the ness season. According to Mr. Bob Reid, the general manager, a new facility to handle the ski rental equipment (boots, skis and poles) is being constructed. “A semarate buildI ing across the road from the Day Lodge will help to reduce the congestion and to make for a more efficient handling of the large numbers of skiers we anticipate will descend upon us on the week1 ends”, Mr. Reid stated. Also planned. is .the. conferpf1 tion of a teaching area for [ beginning skiers. “We need a 1 relatively flat area where new *1 skiers can learn to stand up r on their skies, and to turn ' and stop, before they start 1 using the slopes serviced by the rope tows or the T-bar : left”, comments Mr. Sears ■ Raymond, Ski School Director The new area will be located directly south of the upper parking area, former site of the old Johnson house. Skyline is readying itself to handle crowds of 1,000to 1,500 skiers on peak week-ends during the winter season. Mr. Reid said “the few good week; ends we have last year demonstrated to us that we have to be prepared for overflow crowds whenever the skiing conditions are better than avep age”. Surveilance was intensified Friday night with the aid of Fulpeper’s Sheriff’s department and some civilians in addition to officers already at work. Kvery highway and byway was being patrolled. Taylor worked his way to the Blackwater area on Route 522 where he crouched in the ditch to survey traffic. After checking a number of passing vehicles, none of which were police cars, he stepped onto the highway and attempted to hitch a ride by the next motorist. This motorist, however, turned out to be Trooper Frank Lasley patrolling that area in search of the escapee. Taylor was returned to the Culpeper camp where he was serving five years for burglary, three offenses. He is from Norfolk. Del. Frost Favors Virginia Sales Tax In the event that a state sales tax bill clears the committee during the next General Assembly, Delegate Tom Frost 6tated at Friday’s meeting of the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors that he would vote for it IF. . .at least 50% of the tax was returned to the counties; if there was relief from personal property tax and merchant’s licenses. The Rappahannock Board had previously voted to endorse a sales tax, though not unani-, mouly, and expressed to Mr. Forst that they were in favor) of it if it was distributed on a per capita basis. That, they felt, was the only manner in which Rappahannock would get its fair share since there are no large local shopping areas here and much of Rappahan•ock’f reygftitfc.ifr spent side of the county. Mr. D. S. Butler, Resident Engineer with the Department of Highways, reported that a flashing traffic light would be installed at the intersection of Routes 522 and 1001 on the sharp curve in Sperryville. He also asked for a resolution for the disposition of some small sections of Route 618 where the road has been straightened. After tabling a request for the past Two meetings from the Soil and Water Conservation office for financial assistance in the amount $300 for a part time secretary the Board voted against this. The sub-division ordinance was discussed at length and points were taken into consideration for amending at a [later meeting. Indian Summer In Rappahannock (I checked with my sister —Ed). A haze sifts over the horizon, trees shed brilliant foliage, the fields are cleared of crops and the sun beamed down from a bright blue sky Tuesday after a cold snap dipped temperatures last week.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 675-3349 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. From The Editor All letters to the editor must carry a signature before they can be published. I will withhold the names of the authors at their request, but they must be signed. I have received a number of letters this week and last, many of them extremely well written and thought-provoking. If you wish your letter published, come in and sign them. It is gratifying to know the citizenry of the county is interested and alert to its problems and needs and want to speak out on their views. This is healthy. Editor Letter To Editor Dear Editor: The recent letter of Trucker blasting Mr. Harris for his “emotional allegation that our vehicles are racing on the highways" causes me to speak up in defense of Mr. Harris’ allegation, for I make the same allegation. I have traveled Route 211 from Washington to Warrenton for thirteen years, and I am quite aware of the racing empty dump trucks on this stretch of road. This is not a new situation, but perhaps Mr. Harris is just learning about it since the rock quarry in the Flint Hill neighborhood began operation. As a whole, truck drivers are good drivers, and all dump trucks don’t race, but many of them do. When empty dump trucks, one following closely behind another, pass passenger cars which are driving 55 tpph, the trucks are racing, I tdHnJc. This has happdrt#d rriahy times to me in the past. In April, 1965, an empty dump truck followed by a red pick-up truck, raced past me after terrorizing me with his reckless driving for almost a mile before he was able to pass. As I continued on my way, several miles up the road there had been a shower of rain and the dump truck (which had passed car after r car) had skidded into its left lane, striking an oncoming car from New Jersey and killing three young registered nurses between the ages of twenty-one and twenty-two. A sickening spectacle. A few weeks ago two empty dump trucks, one following the other, raced past me in the same spot as those did in April. I glanced at my speedometer which was registering 55 mph. For several miles I followed these trucks at 65 mph and was able to keep in sight of them until they left Route 211. I can cite another incident as late as November 5, 1965, at 5; 15 p.m. I know for a fact that this empty truck (not a dump truck) drove at speeds of 65 and 70 mph from Amissville to top of Jordan’s Hill. This truck turned right at Ben Venue. Trucker needs to become better informed before he makes such statements as “we operate in full conformance with all speed laws". The “we* in this statement needs to be clarified. I judge that he is not one of the “we* who sit behind the steering wheels of dump trucks. It is my belief that most of the people who do much driving cannot truthfully say that they operate in full conformance with all speed laws. , i Sincerely yours, Pauline H. Bruce Letter To Editor Dear Editor; I was delighted to see such enthusiastic and widespread response to my letter-to-the editor urging action on zoning. It was reassuring to note that many people in the county do md&ea care about the preservation of the county’s natural beauty and the orderly development of business, commercial and industrial zones. I don't know whether the zoning bill ultimately will be passed or not. It is, as I said before, understandably difficult for many people to accept controls of any kind. It is quite another thing for such an opponent to become so child 44*h. NATIONAL 4-H CLUB CONGRESS Showcase of America's Youth o o NOV. 28 — DEC. 2 Theme YOUNG AMERICA AND WORLD AFFAIRS 1500^ Boys and Girls Participate ms ' | 'HE National 4-H Club Congress opens for the 44th straight * year in Chicago, on Sunday afternoon, Nov. 28, but the young delegates start checking into the Conrad Hilton Hotel headquarters on Friday and Saturday. Activities begin at once, and never stop until the final banquet on Thursday night, Dec. 2. The Congress theme is “Young America and World Affairs,” announced Norman C. Mindrum, director of the National 4-H Service Committee which arranges the annual event in cooperation with the Extension Service of the land-grant universities, and more than 55 business firms which support the 4-H program. The 1,500 delegates—all winners—will represent 50 states, Puerto Rico, and for the first time an “official” delegation of 10 Canadian 4-H members, one from each province. The 4-H’ers will devote the better part of two days to forums on world problems. During the action-packed week more than 200 youths selected for superior achievement will be designated national winners of educational scholarships. Three boys and three girls will be named to receive the highest honor bestowed during the Congress: The Presidential Silver Tray award. These champions are the top pair in achievement, citizenship and leadership programs. Donors of funds for the trips and scholarships are business firms | and foundations. They contribute more than a million dollars each « year to aid 4-H, said Mr. Mindrum. Hie award winners are all selected by extension personnel heading the state 4-H program. Among the award donors are: Allia-Chalxnera Manufacturing Company, American Oil Foundation, Carnation Company, Citiaa Service 09 Company, Conrad Hilton Hotel, Cudahy Packing Co., fv* E.

The longest continued sponsorship totals 48 years. ' -V-* 1 * ■' '** * X I :-Z \r. •• #•’ * . ■- :-f'y I ishly emotional about it as to indulge in personalities. One such reader said, in effect, that (1) newcomers shouldn’t be telling the natives what to do (2) why don't the newcomers go back where they came from if they don’t want to keep things static (3) to coin a phrase, let sleeping dogs lie. A sleeping dog is no watchdog, and it should be crystal clear that^very county needs an alert zoning watchdog to guard against slovenly growth in which the fast buck is the only golden rule. Those opposing orderly zoning often overlook or do not seem to comprehend the fact that supporters of zoning realize and accept the necessity of commercial and industrial regions. But a good zoning ordinance would keep these, along with residential and agri cultural land, in areas most consistent with the growth of the county as a whole. It is nothing more or less than intelligent planning. The proof of its wisdom is reflected in its acceptance and its success in countless other counties from Cape Cod to California. It is not a question of whc is new to the county and whc has lived here since Methuselah’s day. The old and the new pay taxes, the new have a right to live here as well as the old, and the old and the new join together in trying tc make the county healthy anc enjoyable. Many fine, oldtime residents joined with newer residents in speaking up strongly in favor of zoning at the public hearing, nor were they so intolerant as to shrill at their opponents: "Why dontcha go back where ya came from?" Nor is it a question of letting “sleeping dogs lie.” The zoning proposal was originated and backed by a highly-respect ed group of taxpayers because they saw a need for it. If we follow the lazy, shortsighted course here of letting the sleeping dog lie, even the poor dog will stagger to \ts feet one day and scamper away to another county if he suddenly sniffs a glue factory next tc his favorite green lawn.' Crowning the trio of absurdities, the same letterwriter objected to b^gin told “what to do”. One wonders why our expression of zoning support should be thus interpreted as an order. We had always thought that the free expression of ideas was elemental to our democracy. Sure ly it is to be regretted that there are still residents, even ancient inhabitants, who have yet to^learn the value of open and tolerant discussion of public issues. Edward A. Harris P.S. to “Trucker”; Ydu are right — the dump trucks stay within the speed limit. They simply come so thick and fast now they seem to be flying. Letter To Editor Dear Editor: We of Culpeper Stone Company, Inc., who operate the quarry at Flint Hill, known as Flint Hill Stone Company, wish to thank the citizens of Rappahannock who have come to our defense against the charges by Mr. Harris that our “rock dust* is darkening the sun, and that trucks hauling our products are a hazard or the highway. We want to be good neighbors to the people of Rappahannock County and will do anything we can to keep our plant from becoming a nuisance to those whc nve in tne surrounding area. Crushing rock is a process that is by no means dust free - ask the people who work at the plants - but we are doing what we can to keep the dust out of the air, (we need it in our products to help meet State specifications), and have plans for even further improving our facilities on this score. As for the trucks, we do not own them ourselves, but have local truckers to do our hauling. These truckers make their living by their trucks and I am sure they will not knowingly do anything that would put their lives or their jobs in jeopardy. They are regulated by the State Police just as other vehicles and have as much right to use the roads as anyone else. Before locating our plant on Mr. Gentry's property, we tested other locations and either found the rock did not meet Virginia Department of Highway specifications or was not located within easy access of a primary highway, i. e. Rt. 522, and in the most economical hauling distance from the points of major use. We feel that any zoning plan must take into consideration the natural resources of a particular area and should not, if possible, prevent the realiza tion of benefits from those •resources, for in doing so the wwbx* . PANTHER TALES By Martha Shillingburg Saturday the District FHA Federation meeting was held in Front Royal.

As I haVe pointed out, good rock is where you find it and it can’t be moved to a more desirable location to be quarried. Since we are the county’s newest “industry* we would be glad to have visitors come and 6ee our operations. Just stop at the scalehouse and tell Mr. Daniel Jacobs that you want to tour the quarry and plant. He will get our Engineer, Mr. J. E. Determan, or our Superintendant, Mr. B. J. Wood, to show you around. Again, I want to state that we don’t want to harm anyone, or his property, or his rights, and we respectfully ask the understanding of the people of the county.

Hoak, a native of Luiay, attended the Luray High School and following his graduation in 1960 entered Bridgewater College where he was a student for more than two years before transferring to the Virginia Polytechnic Institute. He received his degree in civil engineering from the latter earlier this year. At the time of his appointment to the Shenandoah staff, Hoak was employed by the Virginia Department of Highways. He is a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers and the local Masonic Lodge. After you’ve heard two eye witness accounts of an auto accident, you begin to worry about history. Expansion of Benefits For Rural People More than a million people In rural America may benefit from an expansion in financial support for rural corr munity facilities and famil; farms authorized by recen legislation, E. C. Compton Farmers Home Administration state director for Virginia said today. Private investors will provide the bulk of the funds or an insured basis througl USDA's Farmers Home Administration. The legislation signed inn law by President Johnson or October 7: - authorizes an increast from $200 to $450 million ir the Farmers Home Administration’s ability to insure loans in any one year for rura community facilities including water supply and waste disposal systems, and for the development and purchase of family farms. - provides, for the first time this type of credit for rura waste disposal systems. - authorizes, for the first time, grants to supplemen this type of credit for rura water and waste disposal sys terns. Grant authority may no exceed 50 percent of the construction of a project nor i total of $50 million a year - authorizes, for the firs time, grants totaling $5 million a year for comprehensive planning of water anc sewage systems. - increases from 2,500 t( 5,500 the size of towns eligible for such assistance. - increases from $1 to $million the maximum size of < loan, or a combination loai and grant for water suppl; or waste disposal systems The 1,600 field offices o the Farmers Home Administration are being notified t< accept applications under th< expanded credit authorities Grant assistance will not b< available until funds are ap propriated by Congress. Applications for rural con munity facilities loans maybi made by public bodies and noi profit private organizations The $450 million in insurei loans plus the $55 million ii grants authorized yearly b; the Act can help an estimate! 800 rural areas containing a] proximately one million peo pie obtain needed water am r Gains In Travel Reported by State 1 Richmond—Most segments of the Virginia travel industry registered 'generally good 'gains* the first nine months ’ of 1965, Irby N. Hollans, Jr., director of travel development for the Virginia State Chamber of Commerce, said today. t Good weather and an absence of early fall storms also made September "better" than its 1 comparable 1964 month* he 1 said. Twenty-three of the State Chamber’s 34 widely scat1 tered "Monthly Travel Baro1 meter Reporters* indicated increases for the three quar1 ters of 1965 over the same 1 1964 period ranging from .4 of one percent to 34 percent. Two reports stated one percent to 17 percent. Some travel attractions closely allied to the Civil War Centennial observance noticed a “slackening" effect as the summer months passed and at i» least one report was received ‘ to the effect “the Civil War celebration is now over*. Interstate 95 along eastern Virginia brought business for some segments of the travel ^industry down as much as 17 : percent as Route 1 and 301 businesses felt the effect of 1 the first full travel season with ■ a completed and competing interstate highway, Hollans ' said. All but one of the National I Park Service Areas in Virginia posted gains for the 1 first nine months of this year and State Park facilities operated at capacity.

Apple Harvest Nearing Completion The harvest of Virginia’s 1965 apple crop is in the windup stage. Rains in late August and September helped tremendously in overcoming a serious summer drought. The Virginia Crop Reporting Service now estimates Virginia’s apple crop at 10.5 million bushels, slightly above an average crop of around ten million bushels. September was exceptionally hot in Virginia delaying harvest somewhat. October weather was exceptionally favorable with cool nights and moderately warm days makingfor high color and quality. Old-timers in the apple business state that they cannot remember when apple growers were faced with more difficulties than in 1965. In addition to very unfavorable weather prior to October they had the man-made catastrophe of being forced to use very undependable harvest labor that not only didn’t know how to pick apples, but unfortunately didn't care to learn. In spite of all of these hardships consumers will find ample quantities of Virginia Apples being offered for the many uses of this versatile fruit.

The 1965 Donation Day for the Crippled Children’s Hospital will be Tuesday, November 23. At this time an appeal is made to all Virginians tc share in a program to restore these crippled children to physical health and usefulness, The Hospital holds quarterly orthopedic and plastic clinics in January, April, July anc October. Previously treats and newly referred patients are examined. An average oi one hundred patients are seer at each of the orthopedic clinics. The Hospital follows all orthopedic and plastic patients until they are eighteen years old. We enclose a picture oi “Tammy", one of our patients. Tammy has had four admissions and hospital stays at Crippled Children’s Hospital, She first came to this hospital when she was four years told and unable to walk. Her diagnosis was cerebral palsy with inability to walk. During her various hospitalizations she has had operations on the tight spastic nerves and muscles. Tamrpy has worked very hard trying to walk in Physical Therapfcy during each hospital treaty ment. She was here as a patient the last time in 1965. On this admission she was old enough to fit with long-leg braces and special shoes, and was taught to walk with braces and shoes plus crutches in Physical Therapy. It has been a long haul over the years for Tammy, but now that she is a big girl we feel that she will be able to continue her walking with braces, shoes and crutches. In September she started to school and this bright, attractive child is hav ing no difficulty with her schooling. It is the hope of her parents and the nurses and doctors that in the years to come she will be able to walk without the support of long'leg braces. BL00DM0B1LE COMES NOV. 30 Virginia Outdoors: If Virginia’s whitetailed deer could read calendars, they would probably put a bigcircle around November 15. For on that day, the woodland home of the whitetail will be invaded by some 225,000 nimrods garbed in all the colors of the rainbow and equipped with nearly every describable kindofrifle and shotgun. In fact, there’ll be a few more hunters than deer, since Virginia’s deer population is thought to number 200,000 and holding steady. It doesn't take the wary white tail long to learn he’s the primary target of this mighty hunter army. The hunter has his best chance of bagging a deer on opening day when more than half of the total season’s kill is taken. Four out of every five of Virginia’s whitetails, however, will manage to evade the hunter for the entire season. It takes a mighty sneaky critter ’ to hide from so many for so long. While deer can’t shoot back at the hunter, they are past masters at the art of evading him. This explains why, with nearly an equal ratio of deer and hunters, that only about one out of six hunters will shoot a deer. To most hunters, every deer season is a success because of the fun of planning and preparing for the hunt, the comradeship and associations with other hunters, the quiet beauty of the woodland, the challenge of matching wits with the evasive deer, the thrilling crash of an approaching deer, perhaps the famous near shock of buck fever, and the fireside memories that may be recalled over a lifetime. Deer occur throughout Virginia and are hunted in all the counties except Buchanan and Northampton, and the City of Arlington. Deer hunting; regulations are complex and it would be well for Virginia hunters to study the “Summary of Virginia Game Laws’ available from the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries, Richmond. Hunters whose favorite deer county lies west of the Blue Ridge have 13 days in which to harvest a deer, while January 5 marks the closing date in most of the counties east of the Blue Ridge. Mnce hunting is the main means by which game managers keep deer herds in balance with their food supply, the regulations tend to be more liberal where Virginia’s deer are more numerous and difficult to harvest. The area in which you hunt determines whether you legally can hunt with rifle, shotgun, or dogs, whether you can shoot one deer or two, whether you can shoot an antlerless deer and when you can shoot an antlerless deer. Read the regulations carefully so you will be able to hunt without fear of violating the law. According to statistics compiled in 1963, Virginia’s whitetailed deer herd is the tenth largest in the nation. North Carolina is the only state in the Southeast with a greater number of whitetails, but Virginia harvested 10,000 more deer than North Carolina in 1963. Virginia’s game biologists attempt to regulate the hunting kill to harvest about 20 percent of the deer herd each hunting season. The whitetail’s ability toreproduce explains its abundance. There’s reason to bei lieve that up to 35 percent of a healthy herd could be harvested by hunters if other mortality causes were kept to a minimum, without reducing the number of deer available the next November. It’s a rare Virginia whitetail that weights as much as 150 pounds field-dressed at the checking station. Of 256 deer weighed at checking stations in 7 southwestern Virginia counties in 1963, the heaviest animal was a 3 1/2 year old doe weighing 147 pounds. Within the 256-deer sample, 170 weighed no more than 90 pounds. The heaviest whitetailed deer occur in the northern part of their range and several bucks weighing more than 400 pounds are on record from such states as New York, Vermont, Michigan, and Minnesota. The largest official record of a whitefail buck known to me was shot by Carl Lenander in cook county, Minnesota, in November, 1962. It had a live weight of 511 pounds. The size of deer, and the growth of antlers, are closely related to the amount and quality of food available to the deer throughout the year. jTliis is why game biologists ask you to take your deer to a checking station where they have an opportunity to weigh, sex, and age it. The trained biologist can examine the lower jaw of the deer and tell by the teeth present and their wear the approximate age of the deer. The number of animals in different age classes from the same range indicates the age structure of the deer population and the success of the annual harvest. The relationship between the weight of the deer and its age helps a biologist to determine if the deer have an ade-j quate diet. Thus, even in! death, the deer helps us to obtain knowledge useful in managing those that survive the hunting season. An analysis would undoubtedly reveal that our whitetailed deer herd was worth millions of dollars to the economy of the State. But who could place a dollar value on the man-hours collectively devoted to one of the finest forms of outdoor recreation, hunting the whitetailed deer? r THE VILLAGE SHOP , Main Street Flint Hillj Many Items for Christmas Giving ' COME SEE Tues. thru Sat., 10 am-6 pm Stone flint hill, va.

Miracle of Survival The military survivors of the attack on Pearl Harbor of December 7, 1941 are trying to perform a miracle by locating as many survivors as is possible in order to band together and form chapters in cities and states across the country as the “Pearl Harbor Survivors Association". We have located over 10,000 servicemen and women of all the uniformed military services who were there, and believe that some 40,000 more survivors may still be alive today and would join with us if they knew that we have formed our national association of survivors of Pearl Harbor 1941, and seeking to perform the “Miracle of Survival” which is, “Returning Enmasse’ to Honolulu, Hawaii, for our25th anniversary and memorial service at Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1966. All of the arrangements have been made for this miraculous and historical reunion 25 years after the attack. If you are a military survivor who was stationed on the island of Oahq, or serving aboard ship within 3 miles of Oahu, Hawaii, or if you might know of a survivor in any branch of the uniformed military service who was there on December 7, 1941, then please write for full information on the “Miracle of Survival’ to: The Pearl Harbor Survivors Association Room #5, Jefferson Building, 101 East High Street, Jefferson City, Missouri, 65101, our national headquarters, or write to your own state chairman who is; Le Roy V.

Warns On Hunting Accidents The Virginia Game Commis;sion reminds hunters that over half of all hunting accidents ;occur at ranges less than 10 yards. Hunters who relax and get careless around camp or vehicles are really a more serious threat than the occa sional trigger happy individual in the woods. Know where your gun, and the other fellow's is pointed at all times. Carrying loaded weapons in a car is a practice that can cost you or a hunting companion his life, says the Virginia Game Commission. Always unload a gun and open the action before placing it in a vehicle. The few seconds it takes may save a life. * Be absolutely sure of your target before you pull that trigger this hunting season, cautions the Virginia Game Commission. A missed opportunity for a shot at game is slight indeed, when compared to a lifetime ot regret that can follow a hasty decision. The most common hunting accident occurs in the open, at close range and around mid day, reminds the Virginia Game Commission. Don’t ever assume that you are immune from accident. Stay alert and stay alive! Park your hunting weapon in a safe place, says the Vir ginia Game Commission. Guns leaned against trees, rocks or vehicles are nothing but booby traps. Each year a number of hunters are killed and injured by weapons slipping from such careless positions. A g‘un can’t think! You can. Have a safe place to store guns and ammunition in the home and be sure they are always put there, cautions the Virginia Game Commission. A few seconds of careless ness when you return tired from a hunting trip may cost the life of one of your loved ones. Make safety a habit! Treat your gun with the respect due a lethal weapon, says the Virginia Game Com mission. A gun is not intended for a club, a crutch or a pry bar, and using it as such is asking for trouble. Use your weapon only for the purpose for which it was built. A well kept gun is a joy to own! A mistreated weapon is a lia bility. Young hunters are responsi ble for a large portion of the hunting accidents which occur in Virginia each fall, says the Game Commission. Don't take a youngster into the woods with out a thorough briefing on safe gun handling. Set a good exam pie for him and your other hunt ing companions. Last year 57 persons were injured or killed in hunting accidents across the state. Virginia Game Commission says, “Don't let your name be added to this year’s list.” Watch yourself and the other fellow! Carelessness kills! Be sure that favorite hunting weapon is a trusted friend and not a potential enemy, cautions the Game Commis Flint Hill News The meeting of the W.S.C.S. at the home of Mrs. G. W.

A number of accidents each year are caused by defective weapons. Check that gun now while there is stil lime. Don’t rush that hunting trip says the Game Commission. Hunting should be a form of relaxation, not a high pres sure, high speed marathon. Speeding on the highway increases the chance of an auto accident. Overexertion in the woods may result in a heart attack or other physical diffi culty. Relax and enjoy it. Sperry ville News Bv Mrs. J. It.

By Doris Daugherty ~5oil Retardant Finishes Homemakers can now purchase fabrics with soil retardant finishes, says Mrs. Mildred A. Payne, Extension home furnishings specialist . at Virginia Polytechnic Institute. She says that the two main types are the water repellents and the fluoridizers. “Some water repellent finishes lose their effectiveness after cleaning," explains Mrs. Payne. “Others are labeled durable, which means that they survive laundering or dry cleaning. “The fluoridizers repel and resist oil and grease as well as water-borne stains. If you spill coffee, for instance, on a sofa on which the upholstery fabric has been treated with this repellent the liquid will just 'head up' on the surface. You can remove it simply by blotting it quickly and gently with a cloth or tissue. “Dry soil also sits up on the surface until you remove it with a vacuum cleaner or whisk broom. If the stain has seeped into the weave of the fabric between the fibers, you can remove it by dabbing the area with a solvent-dampened cloth." Mrs. Payne says fabrics with fluoridizer finishes will not withstand constant assaults from muddy feet, gooey desserts, and urban soot, but that under normal conditions they will cut down on cleaning costa You cancleanthefabrics many times, she says, and still retain their protective power.

Dresses without b e 11 s or definite waistlines will fit comfortable as the child grows taller. Select a garment that has roomy armholes and short sleeves without cuff s or bands. Bands hamper arm movement and become tighter as the child grows. Look for deep hems and ample seams for making needed adjustments. Simply styled dresses are always high fashion. And they’re easy to care for, saving time and lightening work for mother.

The words of caution come from the American Insurance Association, which points out that the death rate per million miles driven is about three times greater at night than during the daylight hours. Don t bet your life against these statistics by failing to be extra careful when driving at night, the Association advises. Make sure your lights and turn signals are in properworking order, and don’t fail to use your dimming switch to lessen the glare for approaching motorists. Read the Want Ads! It Pays!
