^Historical Society Met Last Week A meeting of the Rappahannock Historical Society was held Tuesday, Feb. 21 at the Court House with a small but enthusiastic group of members present. The President, Mr. E. M. Jones, presided. Dr. William Wake reported for the Cemeteries Committee. Over 100 questionnaires asking for reports on local cemeteries has been sent out. Some good reports have been received, especially for Jackson and Wakefield Districts. It is expected that more reports will be completed when the weather improves. Much interest was shown in a repeat field trip to cemeteries and a tentative date of April 16 was set. It was decided to meet at the Court House at 1:30 p. m. on that date as a starting point. By-laws were discussed and accepted. The date for the annual meeting of the Society was changed from the former date of Feb. 8, birthday of Rappahannock County, to the first Tuesday In May of each year. This is to avoid possible inclement weather which cuts down attendance. Mr. R. L.

Judging by the amount of! money the average Rappahan-; nock County woman spends ;ach year for beauty products personal appearance is of prime importance to her. Her annual outlay for face creams, hair coloring, eye makeup, permanent waves, nail polish, lipsticks and other :osmetics, together with visits to the beauty parlor, comes to a pretty penny. And all of it is in the “must'' category. She would sooner cut down on much of her other spending, if it became necessary, than allow her appearance to droop. Each successive year finds; her spending more and more in this direction, the figures show. One reason for it is the rising cost of cosmetics. Another is the multiplicity of new pToduc^s that she is urged to try. Fortunately, ^ her spending ability is better than it was formerly and she is able, therefore, to indulge to a greater extent. Figures gathered by the Twentieth Century Fund, the United States Chamber of Com merce and others reveal just how much American famiies are spending for personal grooming. The total is now $8.5 billion a year, up from $7.0 billion in 1964. Rappahannock County’s con tribution to this total is esti mated at $90,000. This includes what the male members of the family spend for haircuts, shaving supplies and other toilet articles. Their outlay for such items has also been rising in the last few years—the result of an inten sive advertising campaign to make men feel that there is nothing un-manish about scented toilet preparations, hair tints and the like. The surveys show that the amount spent by a family on personal grooming is closely related to its jncome. Among those in the "under $6,000" bracket, an average of 1.9 percent of their total expend! tures is so-spent. Between $6,000 and $15,000, it amounts to 1.7 percent of th6 total and, beyond that, to 1.5 percent. ' On the basis of locab income and expenditures, the bill for personal care in Rappahannock County is estimated at about $90,000 a year, in line with, these findings/ Officials at the annual dinner meeting of the Rappahannock Farmers Cooperative, SperryviHe, which was held Friday evening at Ilanorama are P. Lee Thornton, SperryviHe, Manager of the store there; W. H. Hurt of Culpeper, president of the Culpeper Farmers Cooperative and its branches; J.

Deer Kill Down E. of Blue Ridge Virginia’s deer kill east of the Blue Ridge totalled 13,265 animals for the 1966-67 season, a little below the 15,390 taken in this section last year, according to Game Commission Game Division Chief R, H. Cross. A slight cutback on either-sex shooting in the eastern section last fall was expected to result in a somewhat lower harvest. Gcstnbined with the western kill of 12,846 this made a total of 26,111 deer bagged in the state last season. boutnampton county again led the eastern section in kill with 1,209 animals. Sussex County ranked second with 735 followed by Surry County where 593 were bagged. All three of the leading counties were down about 20% from last year’s harvest. Most eastern counties with bucks-only seasons made slight gains over the previous season. Buckingham County managed to struggle into fourth place among eastern counties with a kill of 530 animals in spite of the bucks only limitation. In Northern Neck counties where either sex shooting was cut from the full season to 5 days, kills dropped from 30 to 50%. “Through the controlled harvest of anterless deer, Virginia deer herds have been brought to carrying capacity status in western Virginia and in most parts of eastern Virginia* CToss said. The Commission hopes, with the judicious application of either-sex shooting days, to keep the har(Continued on page 5) Entries Mounting for Rappk.

I have a few items of news that should interest our sports fans. Last week tryouts were held for a girls’ basketball team.

The library has acquired 3 new tables for use by the students. These are very nice pieces of furniture and it is up to the students to keep them in good condition. From The Book “My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste." (Prov. 24:13) The late Dr. M. R. De Haan of Grand Rapids, Michigan, related how the sweet nectar gathered so industriously by 5ie bees reminded him of the gospel. First, there is a sacrifice of life. The working bees live only a few weeks. They literal ly give their lives in the preparation of the honey. Second, there is purity. Bees are very clean creatures as shown by the clear confection Third, there is food. Honey is one of the most nutritious, concentrated sources of energy known. Finally, each honey cell is hermetically sealed to keep it fresh. The sacrifice speaks of the death of Christ on the cross. The purity reminds us of His purity. The food represents what He can do for us spirit ually. The freshness is the timeliness of the gospel. It is as greatly needed today as ever before. In our modern age, we have thought that material prosperity, would give us peace in flirts, ftrtimnlhworking , We have thought that greater knowledge and opportunities would give meaning and purpose to life, but it doesn’t work out that way. For this reason, many are turning to alcohol, dope, and immorality. What we need is the “honey" of the gospel. We need to know the meaning of the psalmist's words when he wrote. How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!" (Ps. 119:103) You see, God has made us |for Himself, but we cannot ihave His blessings and fellowship unless we receive His Son. “But as many as received him, to them gave he the Ipower to become the sons of IGod, even to them that be!lieve on his name."

Heart Disease Although no single factor will prevent heart disease, *‘says a pamphlet of the Ameri can Medical Association, good health habits are as favorable to the heart and circulatory system as they are to all body functions. If you already have some form of heart disease, suit able medical management and good living habits will prolong life and make it more enjoyable. Here are some suggestions from the American Medical As sociation for healthful living— * Understand heart disease Don’t fear it. * Learn you health status by periodic medical examina tions. * Reduce weight if obese: Eat less in the hope you will live longer to eat more. * Don’t experiment with | special diets. If your physician thinks you need one, he will prescribe it. * Exercise regularly. If you have heart trouble your physf cian will set your activity 'limits. i^* prevent infectious diseases, it one snouia occur, seek treatment promptly. * Accept life's challenges, come to terms with trygv^t able, and live as thog^b^jrolj will live forever.

Red Cross Month Plans Emphasis On Services To Military Families Every day, sometimes many times a day, someone in Virginia turns to the American Red Cross for help. These days it is very likely a mother anxious about her son in Vietnam, or a wife needing to reach her husband in the war zone immediately because ofafami ly emergency. f Red Cross services to the armed forces have been sharp ly increased the past few months as U.S. troop strength in Vietnam has gone past the 400,000 mark. In Virginia, as in other states, Red Cross jchapters have been reporting !a corresponding increase in services to the families, de pendents and survivors of sep vicemen stationed not only in Vietnam, but elsewhere I around the globe. At the beginning of Red Cross I Month Floyd* L. Pillow, state representative for the American Red Cross, made a pertinent observation on recently released figures showing the, increased activity in the state’s 95 chapters. Although Red Cross Month draws atten tion to many services of the organization, it should not go unobserved, he said, that this year shares with 1966 the Other new equipment received at Sperryville School through these funds are two projectors which project images on a screen in the front of the room and eliminates blackboard use. This provides better light and vision for students in rear of a room. This equipment is being used by Instructor John Wayland in his sixth grade class. Silas Foster is at the projector. 50th Anniversary of Service to Military Families. “It isgrati fying to realize the yeoman service the Red Cross has been rendering to families of American servicemen since 1916," Pillow said. “And it is indeed sobering that now, some 50 years later, we find the lion’s share of each Red Cross dollar - about 34 cents - allocated to the assistance of men in the armed forces, their families here at home, and veterans." Pillow kicked off the organization's month-long observance in his Richmond office with a special salute to the “49,555 hard working Red Cross volunteers in Virginia who helped us to nurse every nickel we spent on military and other services." He added a bit of history by relating that, in 1916, the Director General of the U. S. Department of Civilian Relief advised the Red Cross to organize corn mittees to assist the families of national guardsmen called to service on the Mexican border. This marked the beginning of what is now called Service to Military Families, formerly approved by the Red Cross in 1917. Thus the Red Cross, recognizing that suffering has many forms, added another service to the one which had inspired its beginning: relief for the soldier struck down in combat. During the past year Red Cross financial assistance to servicemen, veterans, and their families totaled $328,602 in Virginia, said Pillow. The story behind the figures involves round-the-clock cooperation between hometown chapters and Red Cross personnel stationed all over the world. It involves the flow of thousands of messages between here and Vietnam, carry ing urgent messages of illness birth, death; it involves coun seling to help find solutions to problems caused by family separations. Last year, he said, 22,833 military dependents, 1,787 veterans or their dependents or survivors and 1,276 civilian families (with kin in the service) received Red Cross assistance in the state. Pillow emphasized that this assistance was provided wholly by Virginia residents, whose voluntary contributions to the Red Cross made the organization's humanitarian work possible. These contributions through Red Cross annual fund campaigns in iMarchj or through fall federated campaigns in which the Red Cross participates, are the organization’s onl) source of income, he added, Richmond Chorus To Perform in Culpeper The Junior members of the Woman's Club of Culpeper are sponsoring the University of Richmond Chorus in a concert on Saturday, March 11 at 8 o'clock in the Ann Wingfield School Auditorium, Culpeper. Mrs. Horace D. Douty and Mrs. Charles N. Higgins are co-chairmen of this Concert. The University of Richmond Choir was reorganized as a concert group in 1954 under its present Director, James Erb. Since then, it has become well known, both regionally and nationally, as a serious group representing a high quality of taste and performance. It has been invited numerous times to participate with symphony orchestras in large choral works, has broad cast yearly on the NBC net work radio program, “Great Choirs of America", and has produced a number of limited edition long playing records.

Building Income Falls Short Road-building income from Virginia’s new 2 per cent motor vehicle sales and use tax is falling sharply below estimates. Highway Commissioner Douglas B. Fugate said today. The levy went into effect September 1, meaning that it would be collected for 10 months of the present fiscal year, which began last July 1. It has been estimated to yield $20,085,000 during that period — but with half the time passed, the tax througl January had produced only $4,804,000 or 23.9 per cent of the total estimate. Commissioner Fugate pointed out that estimators had not expected half of the revenue to be produced during the first five months, since all 1966 model vehicles were exempt and in view of the realization that some people would buy cars prior to September 1 to avoid the tax. In addition, he noted, automobile sales dropped all across the country during the latter part of last year. In Virginia, sales of new domestic cars dropped 4 per cent in 1966. Observers have attributed this generally to a combination of tighter credit conditions, higher prices, higher taxes, and a reluctance by many prospective purchasers to part with their money. The Commissioner said that, “The results of the motor vehicle sales and use tax thus far are most discouraging, and it is becoming apparent that the $20 million allocated by the Highway Commission for highway improvements, based on anticipated returns from .this source, is not all going ito be available. 1 Deer Kill— (Continued from page 1) vest on a rather even keel and prevent great fluctuation. “The kill could probably be increased,* Cross said, “if some of our other losses, particularly those caused by free ranging dogs, could be reduced. “The present trend could lead to a deficit in construction funds, and could obviously mean delays in getting some projects underway. “Of course, we don’t know what the latter part of the fiscal year will bring, and naturally we hope very much that revenue will be sufficient during that period to prevent any major deficit." While the sales and use tax revenue is below estimates, highway income from other State sources is being received at about the levels estimated. However, temporary cutbacks in federal funds have already required adjustments in construction schedules. The experience with revenue from the auto sales and use tax differs from that with the State’s general retail sales tax, which is meeting estimates.

Veterans News It Is not unusual for a veteran :o sell the home that he pur:hased with a GI loan, then earn that the purchaser has iefaulted in the monthly payments, and the house has been sold without bringing enough to satisfy the loan. In such a :ase the original veteran ownir is in debt to the Government. The following are some pointers for a veteran to remember 0 be released from liability vhen selling his GI home; 1. The purchaser need not be 1 veteran, but must agree to jssume the veteran’s liability. 2. The loan must be current. 3. The purchaser must meet /A credit requirements. 4. Release is not completed intll all forms are executed ty the veteran, the purchaser tnd the VA. 5. Release from liability loe6 not restore the veteran’s mtitlement to another GI loan, fo have entitlement restored he loan must be paid in full. 6. The only charge made by he VA is the cost of a credit eport. All legal fees in the elease must be paid by the reteran or the purchaser.

Security Notes Missing signatures and addresses are two frequent prob lems that Travelers Insurance Co. has run into in processing doctor bill request for payment forms from medicare beneficiaries. Hazel F. Daly, social security district manager in Winchester said today. Representatives of Travelers, the carrier for medicare doctor bill payments in this area, have reported that some beneficiaries have received repayment for doctor bills later than was necessary because they forgot to sign their forms or to include their address. The signature on the request for payment form authorizes the carrier to pay the claim. Travelers Insurance Co. has to have the signature before the claim can be paid. A missing address presents even a bigger problem according to Mrs. Daly. "WithW ashing ton THEATRE WASHINGTON, VA. Show Starts 7:15 p.m. Fri. & Sat., March 3-4: “TOWN TAMER” out the address Travelers doesn’t know where to send the check, and the only way to get It Is to write back to the doctors, who are sometimes reluo tant to give out their patients' addresses." Mrs. Daly noted that there are two ways to get payment for doctor bills under medicare and that under the first method the doctor agrees to make the claim to the medicare carrier. But when the other method is used, the beneficiary pays the doctor bill and sends the claim to the carrier. "Beneficiaries sending in their own request for payment forms should be especialy careful to give all information called for, including their address, medicare identification number, and their signature. Also, the benficiary should either have his doctor complete the second part of thq request for payment form or enclose an itemized receipted bill before sending in his claim." “Because Travelers has reported some problems with claims from this area," Mrs. Daly said, "we are suggesting that beneficiaries making their first claim bring thek forms and receipts to the social security office.
