About fifty riders were entered in the event which ran for three days. The entries covered 40 m iles each of the first two days and 20 miles the last day of the ride. Time was a factor in the competition with a half hour leeway before penalty was imposed. The first day of the ride was made in a steady day-long downpour of rain.

Sportsmen — Join Up- - By Irvin Kenyon Game Warden With the apples getting bright red and golden yellow and some folk covering their tomato plants at dusk and everyone asking, “Any frost down your way last night?", it’s getting toward the end of the year for many things and people. To the hunter though, frost and the red leaves on the gums is as a handful of warm, moist earth in March to the gardner. From now until the 15th day of February, there will be an open season on one or more types of game in Rappahannock County. With corn being cut for the silos, the dove hunter can expect these winged gray ghosts to be concentrating in the cut over fields. Legal shooting hours are from 12 o’clock noon Eastern Standard Time until sunset. Of course, this means while we’re still on fast time, shooting will begin at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight lime. For a timetable of sunrise Sind sunset, pick up a 1967-68 (Virginia Migratory Came Bird Regulation pamphlet at the county Clerk's office or the newspaper office. They are also available at Jenkins Garage in Amissville and Bradford’s Store in Flint Hill while the supply lasts. As usual Virginia willhavea split dove season opening September 1 5 and running through November 4. Then for those who still haven’t burnt up enough shells, the season will reopen December 18 and end at sunset January 6, 1968. Not far away is our early squirrel season. \ probably crisp dawn of October 2 will find many hunters, young and old, out in the hickory groves looking for a flick of a bushy gray tail and listening for the ;“rain* of cuttings. Though the i population of Mr. Gray seems to be down, let’s hope we will reap the fruits of a sound squirrel management practice in Rappahannock County which does not allow too early a season. It is hoped that we will see by the first of October, as compared to the first of September, an obvious increase in young squirrels out of the nest. At best, after a severe food shortage last win(Continued on Page 4) Sue Haggerty of Sperryville rides hard on her horse Ajax to take fourth place in the lightweight division of the Wood-, stock, Vt.

C. Lea,Jr.appeared before the Town Council of Washington at it’s regular September meeting on Tuesday seeking support for locating a State A.B.C. Package Store in his store building on Gay Street. He stated that the County Board of Supervisors tad gone on record in support of the store and that the local businesses were in whole hearted support and that very little opposition had been expressed. The main argument for getting ttie store at this time was that it would provide three well paying jobs within the town in addition to adding a needed service within the county. After due discussion of the pro and cons of a local liquor store the vote was four in support and 1 opposed. There were no citizens present either in support or opposition of the question. September is the beginning of the fiscal year for the Town of Washington and a $3,000 budget was adopted. This is within the annual income and there fore no property taxes were levied.

Farmers Cautioned To Certify Ballots Farmers were reminded today of a very Important pa rt of the election process for Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) community committeemen, especially where ballots are mailed in to the ASCS countv office. In Rappahannock County, the deacHme tor returning ballots in the community elections is September 1R, ld<>7. H. S. Barksdale, Chairman, ASC County Committee points out that two envelopes have been mailed with the ballots sent to all eligible voters of record* in; the county office. One envelope is plain and the other has a statement printed on the back which the farmer needs to sign. A witnessed mark will also qualify as a signature. The ballot should be marked and sealed inside the plain envelope; growers are cautioned not to enclose any other material. Also, do not write on the plain envelope. This assures the secrecy of your vote. The plain envelope should then be put inside the envelope with the statement on the back. This statement is a certification that the ballot was marked by the farmer personally without undue influence by any person. The envelope should then be mailed or otherwise delivered to the ASCS county office. “Be sure to sign this statement on the back of the outside envelope," the Chairman urges. “If not signed, the ballot will not be considered as a vote.” Australian Visitors Mr. and Mrs. H. Laurence Manwaring recently had a6 their guests at Red Oak Ranch near Woodvllle, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Green of Adelaide, Atr stralia.

Farm Loan— (Continued from Pape 1) less than tour-tentns ol one per cent, which has been more than compensated by interest payments.” Recently, Secretary of Agriculture Orville L. Freeman called the Bankhead-Jones Act “One of the great landmarks in American agriculture. At! the time the legislation was> passed, two out of every fivefarmers were tenants and more were becoming tenants every day. Today, about 83 per cent of the nation’s farmers are full or part owners of the land they operate.” Compton observed that without these loans many of the farmers involved might have been forced off their farms jand into crowded cities. “With these**foarr»sy’ he iS?fi<#f^tiese' farmers have been able to live in and help build rural Virginia.” Secretary Freeman announced recently that a 5-year national progress report, through fiscal 1967, shows that the average FHA borrower increased his gross income from $10,115 before his loan to $18,565 five years later.

Every third hospital bed in Virginia is in a mental hospital. “The Facts about Mental Illness in Virginia." a pamphlet prepared by the Virginia Association for Mental Health, was produced to show the Ithe >fitate’s»m^p»i illness problem. It describes treatment facilities and points out recent progress in the care of the mentally ill and emotionally disturbed.

On the first two week ends in October-b, 7, and 8 and 13, 14, and 15 respectively, Virginia's colonial churches sponsor area tours which offer much of interest to visitors. Pilgrimage proceeds benefit the participating churches. The bright blue weather of this season, with color on the Skyline Drive, is making outof-state tourists aware of the pilgrimages as a bonus to a Virginia visit. Off the beaten track and super-highways, tucked away in their groves of trees are Virginia s old churches, with their interesting brick work, communion silver and fascinating history. At Pilgrimage time, houses and gardens not usually open to tourist cooperate with the parish church, and guests are privileged to see homes with magnificent antiques many of which have been in the same family for generations. This year two old churches never before in the Pilgrimage participate: Christ Church in Alexandria and Fork Church in Hanover County. These will be open on the first week end. On the second, Westover Church and Grace Church are sponsors. In addition historic shrines cooperate with the Piligrimage and this year, Gunston Hall, is included in these for the first time. Christ Church is as much a patriotic shrine as old St. John’s in Richmond, and is focal point for a tour of Old Town where houses built in the 18th century have been restored to their former elegance. Tea will be served each afternoon at the Fitzhugh-Lee house from the Lee family service. Fork Church in Hanover is in Patrick Henry country. Lunches will be served in the church parish house on Friday and Saturday, and tea on Sunday following an organ concert at the church. Old homes in Hanover never before open to tourists will show various periods of Virginia architecture. On the October 13, 14 and 15 week end, Westover Church in Charles City County and Grace Church in Yorktown present tours that are widely diverse in interest.

Cool weather can put newj life in an old dog and in an old | hunter, too, not to mention the young. When you get the cry and bugle of a dog behind a bushy-tailed red or Mr. Ringtail, life is started anew for the man who likes to hear a chase. Fox hunters get off to a rousing bang this week with the show and trials by the Northern Virginia Fox Hunters Association. Casts will be made at day break Friday the 15th from The Hill, farm of Mr., and Mrs. Oliver Durant II at Boston and on the 16th from Longlea Farm also at Boston.

THE WHITE SHOP Culpeper, Virginia Cash Tips Should Be Reported to S. S. Many people still do not realize that cash tips are covered and are reportable for social security purposes, Mrs. Hazel F, Daly, Social Security District Manager in Winchester said today. Cash tips added to regular wages mean higher social security benefits upon retirement, death, or a disabling condition. ^ Cash tips in the Amount of $20 or more during a month in connection with an individual’s work for one employer count as wages under social security. Tips received in a form other than cash-in merchandise or services, for example — do not count a swages for social security. If cash tips amount to $20 in a month’s work for one employer, the employee must furnish the employer a written report of the amount received. The written report m ust be given his em - ployer before the 10th day after the end of the month in which cash tips are received. After the employer receives the report of the cash tips, he includes the amount reported with the regular wages! on his quarterly returns he! files with Internal Revenue.! Mrs. Daly suggested thatj record of tips should be kept! on a daily basis to avoid er-j rors. ‘Employee’s Daily Record Of Tips,” Document 5635, was designed by Internal Revenue Service for general distribution. Requests for the record book may be made to any Internal Revenue Office. Pamphlets on cash tips may be requested at the Social Security District Office, 20 S. Cameron St., Winchester Va.

At the present time the total 4-H Alumni in 50 states is some 26 million men and women. Their influence in community, state and nation is often noteworthy and merits special attention. One such way is through the 4-H Alumni Recognition program, now in its 15th year. Men ana women from all walks of life are nominated by friends and relatives for alumni honors including awards provided annually by the program sponsor, Olin Mathieson Chemical Corporation. Among prominent people who have received the 4-H alumni gold key—the highest award— are educators, businessmen, statesmen, farmers, entertainers, clergymen and an astronaut They include Edd H.
