The home of Mr. and Mrs. Hoy Berry near Amissville was leveled by fire Saturday afternoon. A pile of charred rubble is all that remained after the fire which apparently started from a faulty flue destroyed the house and all of their possessions. ! Discovery of the fire) was about 1 p.nv and in a half hour the | building was falling in. High winds fanned the flames and carried fire into the fields and woods nearby. Amissville, Warrenton and Culpeper fire units answered the alarm, but could only keep flames from spreading further in the tinder dry grass and woods. FIRE SATWtDAY LEVELS HONE, DESTROYS POSSESSIONS OF AHSSVILLE FAMILY A fire, which a ppa r en t ly started from a faulty flue in the attic of the home of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Berry near Amissville, leveled the house and burned all furnishings and clothing of the family. The blaze was discovered shortly after noon and spurred by the gale winds devoured the building in a half hour. Mrs. Berry said the few pieces of furniture and clothes which they managed to grab before fleeing, were destroyed when the winds whipped in from another direction and burned the articles in the yard. The only thing of any consequence saved was a freezer full of food. They had butchered five hogs the week before. Sparks sailed into the grass field adjoining the yard and across the road intograssand trees and ignited them numerous times. Fire companies from Amissville, Warrenton and Culpeper pitched battle against the raging blaze but were no match for the fire which quickly consumed the frame structure. They did, however, prevent the fields and woods from burning to a great degree. Many friends and neighbors have aided the family’s plight and are collecting things for them. Contributors have been generous and all isappreciated by the family. Mrs. Berry is a size 18 and the daughter size r2rThe men ofthefamily are pants size 36-32 and 38 31 and wear large shirts. Alarms to fires have been numerous in the county recently. The windy weather had dried the fields and foliage until the slightest spark runs wild. Forest Warden Raymond Johnson, said Monday night that the fire tower on Red Oak Mountain is being manned. This is the first time in his more than 21 years with the Forest Service that it has been necessary to open the tower this early. There have been times when it was opened the last two days of February. A large area north of the Town of Washington was burned over Saturday, and a half acre near Skyline Ski Area was also burned that day. The blaze at the ski area was brought quickly under control by Front Royal firemen. The fire near town was a major engagement for Washington, Sperryville and Flint Hill Fire companies as flames clamored through the dry grass and bounded up trees in the thickets. The house of Mr. and Mrs. W, A. Miller was in jeopardy as the fire licked its way to a board fence only a matter of yards away. However, it was arrested at the fence line there, but succeeded in forcing its way right up to the hay barn on the Miller farm before firemen halted its rapid advance. A ledge of snow at the rear of the barn probably aided in saving the barn filled with hay from the eager flames A grass fire at the property of W. R. Welch in Flint Hill burned over two or three acres Saturday afternoon, according to Forester Raymond Johnson, and a small fire at the Tylek property in Amissville got in a rail fence and tree stump. Selective Service The Selective Service Office in Washington, Virginia will be closed on February 27 and 29 while the Clerk works in the Front Royal Office. Trio Apprehended in Sperryville Theft Three Prince William County men were apprehended in Fauquier County after taking more than 20 antique jugs and crocks from the Sperryville 66 Station Thursday night. The theft of the jugs was discovered and an alarm broadcast to all troopers in the surrounding area. In about a half hour the trio was picked up in Warrenton and held for Sheriff C. K. Estes. Sheriff Estes and Trooper W. A. Buntin, accompanied by Elmer S. Atkins, owner of the Sperryville 66 Station, went to Warrenton after securing warrants for the arrest of Gary Wayne Foley, Fred True Sheppard, Jr. and Terrill Avery Carter. They were later released on bond. MOVING DAY *- This barn on the farm of Levi Atkin* near Amissville was moved last week to make way for the dual lanlng of Route 211. The barn, measuring 20x60 feet, was moved by H. A. Beaver of Mitchells. Now that moving is completed, Mr. Atkins will have to build a new foundation under it and reconstruct a trench silo adjoining it. Commodity Programs Signup Progresses As of Monday, 43 farms in Rappahannock County had been signed with the county ASCS office to place 945' acres of allotment and base crops in the 1968 programs designed to reduce surpluses and strength en farm prices of corn, grain sorghum, and wheat. As an incentive to reduce acreages, farmers are guaranteed price support t through loans on their production. They are also assured of payments, called pricesupport payments, on acreages planted to these crops if they have signed to comply with respective program provisions. Such payments are intended to supplement income to farmers who voluntarily cooperate in reducing acreages of crops named by USDA as in a surplus position. The signup of farmers under the acreage diversion programs will continue through March 15. ✓ / / / / / A Fire and Rescue \ Squad Notes / / / Washington, Flint Hill and Sperryville fire company attended the field fire Saturday afternoon at the home of W. Arthur Miller. Flint Hill company also went to a field fire on the W. R. Welch property on Saturday. On Friday they were called to a field fire at the home of Mrs. Mary Updike. Flint Hill fire company went to a field fire Monday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Johnny Miles. Chester Gap Rescue Squad ambulance took Irwin Williams to Warren Memorial Hospital Sunday evening for treatment and X-rays. Rappahannock Rescue Squad took Jack Racer from home to the Culpeper Memorial Hos pital on Wednesday. On Saturday Mrs. Lily Clatterbuck was taken to Culpeper hospital for treatment. Ami6sville FireCompany responded to a fire at the house trailer of Donald Settle which burned on February 15. The same day they were called to a field fire on Route 621 at the Merry Meade Farm. The engine was called to a burning car on Route 211, February 16, but were turned back after service was not needed. February 17 they responded to a fire at the home of Roy Berry on the old Culpeper road and to a grass fire on the Tylek property west of Amiss ville. Amissville answered an alarm to a dump fire on Route 621 Sunday and the following day responded to a house trail er fire at Estes. *The trailer was owned by Guy Dudy. Panthers Bow to Luray In District Tourney The Panthers of Rapphannock County High School fell victim to the defending champlion Luray Bulldogs 57-37 Monday night in the opening round j of the District X Tournament played at Harrisonburg. Lui ray’s tremendous height ad: vantage was the deciding factor as they dominated the ; boards and forced the Panjthers to shoot outside their I tough zone defense. ; The Panthers did not give up '■without a struggle, however. Luray went to the dressing room at half time with^i comfortable 25-17 lead. The Panthers came roaring back and narrowed the gap to 3 points, | 28-25. This surge was shorti lived as six foot five Charlie j Campbell, who pumped in 20 i points, hit two quick field j goals and Luray was back in | control. ; High scorer for Rappahannock, Charles Dodson with 14 j point, fouled out with four (minutes remaining and Panjther hopes for an upset began (to fade. Coach Dave Layman | said he was very proud with | his team’s efforts. “They i haven’t given up all year and (they didn’t give up tonight. I :am proud of every one of them. We’ll be back next year, and II am sure things will be different.” The Panthers finished the season with a 7- 11 record, the best in the history of the new high school. The 7 district wins equals the numberwonin all four previous sessions com bined. With only one senior on the squad, next year’s team should produce an even better record. Prospects are looking brighter for high school basketball in Rappahannck. District standings are: Turner Ashby 17-0 Luray 14-3 Broadway 13-4 Page County 12-5 Central - 11-6 Montevideo 8-9 Rappahannock 7-10 Warren County 6-11 Stonewall Jackson 4-13 iStrasburg 2-15 Elkton 0-17 Chester Gap Firemen's Carnival Set for July 3 - 6 At a recent meeting of the j Chester Cap Volunteer Fire l Department the dates of July 3-4-5-6 were selected for their annual Carnival. The (proceeds go for the general expenses of the fire department . Truck Found Wrecked and Abandoned at Slate Mills A 1965 Chevrolet pickup was discovered wrecked and abandoned on Route 707 near Slate Mills Saturday night. Investigation by Trooper W. A. Buntin revealed that the wreck occurred early that morningand the truck was registered to Charles II, price of Culpeper. The vehicle had gone off the right of the road and struck a large rock Damage was estimated at 5500. There was indication of in jury to the occupant or occupants. The crash had not been reported by the owner or operator. A Distributive Education program is being established in ltappnhnnnock County High School with Andrew Bowling, center, ns coordinator, assisted by Mrs. Louise Marshall, left, school guidance counselor. Mr. Howling interviews students, Linda Jenkins and Jack Mason Weaver, concerning their interest in the program. Tax Deductions Average $1300 Here Taxpayers in Rappahannock County who arc in the throes of preparing their Federal income tax returns can now determine how closely their personal deductions compare with the averages. Are their gifts to charity greater or smaller than those made hy most people in their incomc bracket? How do their deductions for medical expenses and local taxes compa re ? Helpful information along these lines comes from the Commerce Clearing House, National authority on taxes and business law, using data compiled by the Internal Revenue Service. It has released a breakdown, based on tax reports of previous years, showing just how much the average taxpayer in each income class deductsfor contributions, interest costs, taxes and medical expenses. The figures show that among families who have earnings equal to the aver age prevailing in Rappahannock County, a total of $1,300, amounting to 21.2 percent of gr oss income, is generally deducted. For families with lower earn ings, the amounts that are deducted represent a larger' proportion of their income. (Continued on Page 9) Red Cross Month March is Red Cross Month and with it goes the annual drive for funds on which this great organization depends to carry out its many services. Flans for the fund campaign are being formulated in Rappahannock with Mrs. T. C. l.ea, Jr. as chairman. Rappahannock is affiliated with the Fauquier Chapter American National Red Cross which serves both counties. The quota for funds from this area will be larger than usual with $19,660 set as the goal. Distributive Education Program Underway at County High School Experience is the best teacher, therefore, putting into actual practice what is learned from text books and classroom activities can be a vital force in the preparation of school students for employment later. With this knowledge, the Distributive Education program has been instigated in many high schools throughout Virginia, and is presently being established in Rappahannock County High School. This program has a twofold purpose. The high school Cooperative Distributive Education Training Program (DE) is a working arrangement between the school and the distributive businesses of a community. In this program, high school juniors and seniors receive, in the classroom, instruction directly related to their chosen business occupation in the retail, wholesale or service fields. The student gets classroom instruction and on-the-job training and experience, and receives high school credit toward graduation. Business establishments In the county play a vital role in the DE program by aiding in the practical training of the student as employers. A minimum of 15 hours per week of on-the-job training is required and students are available to businesses for afternoon and Saturday hours. Schedules are worked out to meet the needs of the locality. The student receives training wages equal to beginning salaries in the business. The DE Program here is being coordinated by Andrew Bowling of Dayton. He is a graduate of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and a former professional football player with the Atlanta falcons. lie is employed by Rappahannock County School Board and the Distributive Education Ser vice of the State Department of Kducation. Mr. Bowling is presently interviewing students who wish to participate in the DE program. From one hundred applications about 30 will be selected for the course. He is also making a survey of all wholesale and retail businesses in the county. In order for the DE program to be effective, the merchant, the school administration and the community must understand the importance of good distributive practices. Full cooperation is necessary to obtain maximum benefit to the employer, the customer, the student and to Distribu-* tive Education.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY HORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON «7S434* j MRS. SARAH & LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. ; Subscription Rate (In Advance): $2.60 per year in Rapp* hannock and adjacent counties; $3.00 elsewhere. Rapp-Chats By W. H. Lyne, Extension Agent, Agric. Questions have been popped lately about livestock. First was about controlling lice on Beef Cattle. Seems this is a humdinger of a year for lice. Everyone has’em, that is all their cattle. V.P.I. recommends Malathion or Coumaphos sprays. Details are as follows. MALATHION: Use 6 1/2 ix. of 57% malathion emulsion concentrate (1 gal. contains 5 lbs of malathion) to 5 gals, of water. Larger quantities of spray can be prepared by mixing 1 gal. of the emulsion concentrate in 100 gals, of water. (Wettable powder forms of malathion can be used in highpressure power sprayers, but are not satisfactory, J in low pressure, hand-operatj ed sprayers.) CAUTION: Do not treat sick animals or calves less than 1 month old. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: See “Keys to Proper Use of PpflfIrlHpfl * ! RESIDUE TOLERANCE: 4.0 ppm in meat and meat byproducts. WAITING PERIOD: 0 days from last application to slaughter. COUMAPHOS*: Use 2 lbs. of .25% coumaphos wettable powder or 1 pt. of coumaphos emulsion concentrate (1 gal. contains 1 lb. of coumaphos) in 25 gal 8 of water. Larger quantities of spray can be prepared by mixing 8 lbs of wettable powder or 2 qts of emulsion concentrate in 100gals, of water. Use in high-pressure, mechanically-agitated sprayers only. Maintain a pressure In the sprayer of 250 lbs. *• dr more per square inch. Wet completely all parts of each animal. From 2 to 6 quarts of spray will be required per animal, depending on its size and length of hair. One treatment is usually suffi cient. Repeat applications only when necessary. CAUTION: Do not apply| coumaphos spray to animals! less than 3 months old, and do not spray sick, convalescent, or stressed livestock. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: Coumaphos is extremely poisonous. If you become sick during or after handling this insecticide, see your doctor immediately. See “Keys to Proper Use of Pesticides." RESIDUE TOLERANCE: 1.0 ppm in meat. WAITING PERIOD: 0 days from last application to slaughter. Next problem, a purebred herd ha6 an outbreak of ring worm in heifers consigned to a sale. As usual, spots in several cases close to eyes making application of Iodine a bit tricky. Our Beef cattle bulletin, in addition to the iodine, recommends sulphur salve. Ike Eller, Assistant Extension Animal Scientist, adises Leese George, Manager of the Bull Center At Culpeper Enterprises, likes Bag Balm, an old salve long on the market for garget or mastitis. He says it has worked fine on bulls on feed test. Leese rubs, or sacrifies, the ring worm area until almost at the point of bleeding then applies the Bag Balm. The sulphur salve or iodine ought to do just as well. Also, Lee Thornton and Doc Johnson were wondering wheth er Captan, a fungicide is good, as a ring worm preventative which is caused by a fungus. Seemed likely but not know ing, we put in a call for the brass, I mean the horse's mouth at Blacksburg. After all, Lee said he and Mau-! rice O’Bannon had found Cap-| tan mixed with talcum powder to be excellent for athletes foot. Now how about that? No research data on Captan as a ring worm preventative. Could be ok for all I know. After all a couple years ago a salesman distributed ‘‘ToePad" at our fox hound field trial. Before our trials were over, houndsmen had found it so effective in taking sore ness out of their hounds’ feet, they tried it on their cut fingers, blistered feet, etc. Ollie Durant got Wahlgrens Drug Store to stock it. Dr. Lewis says they sell more of it than any other medicated ointment. Because of the fox hunters, the company is now putting out the dog "Toe Pad" under another nameforhuman use! So I’m told I ? I You know my Dad use to blister his horses having bucked shins, or a side bone, with Gumbalts Caustic Bak som"; also, would take a tablo spoon himself when ever he was bothered with'dispep* sia. Nope, he didn’t die of enteritis nor ulcers; 'twas just a plain heart attack that got him!

S. Coats A disturbing amount of the ! United States falls Into the j ocean every year. j, Maryland alone loses about! 300 acres, the National Geographic Society says. Point Barrow, Alaska, is receding it the rate of about seven feet i year. California has watched :he Pacific Ocean gobble up a 700-foot-wide section of the | Port Hueneme shoreline ini ten years. American homes, stores,j and hotels have been washed! away by normal erosion. A small New Jersey community, South Cape May, disappeared entirely in the 1950’s, leaving j only the road that led to it. i All along the New Jersey coast from Cape May to Sandy Hook, the hungry Atlantic is munching inland at an average pace of about two and a half feet a year. Imaginative Remedies Senator Joseph Tydings of Maryland has told Congress that coastal erosion costs the United States about $150 million a year. He has intro duced a bill authorizing the Army Corps of Engineers to make a three-year study of the problem. Desperate communities have tried many remedies. A Long Island township collected Christmas trees and stuck them into the sand. Dunes form ed around the trees, replacing those washed away in storms. A New Jersey town armored its beach with a barrier of junked cars in the hope of keeping the sand in place. But the ocean claimed the alien objects, and hurled them back in the form of twisted metal. Erosion continued. The1 aeach became littered with j razor-sharp scraps of metal dangerous to the bare feet of bathers. The town called off the program. Some geologists argue that coast protection is nearly hope less. Beach sand isconstantly In motion. Natural forces inexorably rearrange land forms, and it’s only a matter ef time. Geologists measure time in thousands, if not millions of 1 /ears, however, and many a [ coastal resident would be grateful if someone could just tiold back the sea until his nortgage is paid. Problem with Jollies Millions of dollars have gone into building jetties and seawalls. But a jetty that helps preserve one beach may destroy another by shutting off its supply of sand. Curiously, the maintenance of a beach may depend—in part--on farmers and engineers hundreds of miles away. Many beaches require a steady supply of new sand granules^ delivered to the sea by rivers: from inland.

Va. practices, such as contour plowing and strip farming, cut down on inland erosion, thus reducing the amount of loose sand sent downriver to the icean. When engineers dam a river, the supply of sand grains is cut off until the lake ills up with sand and silt. Seaweed made of plastic is iow being planted offshore in i number of experimental programs. The artificial seaweed s intended to break the force rf the waves which, in winter, nay pound the shore with a orce of more than 2,000 >ounds per square foot.

Tel. & Tel. Tabs $6 Mil. for Expansion Virginia Telephone andTele graph plans to spend more than $6,000,000 in 1968 in improved and expanded facilities to meet the challenges of growth throughout its service area in Virginia, according to D. H. Reid, Division Manager. “While a portion of Vatel’s large outlay in 1968 will be used to push ahead to meet rapidly growing telephone requirements, a substantial portion will be used for extending and further improving services for our presentcustomers," Reid said. Forecasting 1968 construction activities, Reid said Vatel will surpass many goals achieved in 1967, when over 5,600 new telephones were added. He said continued good growth in telephones served is anticipated for 1968, as! the Company’s total invest-j ment in plant, equipment, andj facilities in Virginia will! reach a new high of more than $48,200,000 by the end of this year. , ‘‘In spite of record high interest rates and the fact that large sums required are harder to obtain in the tight money market, we feel it is; imperative that we continue! our programs of service im-| provement and expansion as; rapidly as possible,” said Reid \ Mr. Reid said money will be used throughout the communities and adjacent rural j areas served by Vatel’s 36 ; dial-automatic exchanges to “provide new buildings, exipanded switching systems, add led cable facilities, and many new services to meet the needs 1 for essential and more versa tile communications. This is in keeping with the Company’s continuing program of improv ing service reliability, meet- j ing the accelerating demand' for more versatile telephone communication, and providing for anticipated growth.” Largest authorized expenditure to be made by Virginia Tel. and Tel. Co. in Virginia is $3,229,300 for various projects in the Central Virginia District service areas, designed to improve the quality of telephone service and provide additional facilities and equipment in anticipation of growth in terms of what the addition means to subscribers. Approved appropriations also include $353,400 in the Front Royal exchange and $28,300 in the Washington, Virginia exchange for improvements in these areas. The largest appropriation in Front Royal is $109,800 for central office equipment. Numerous cable and plant extensions are planned in both Washington and Front Royal. The largest cable expenditure is in the Happy Creek-Ilowlesville area in the amount of $33,000. In Washington, Virginia a$17,400central office equipment addition will be made. “The growth of the economy throughout our service area and our estimate of its continuing upward movement has set the stage for our record expenditures,” said Reid. “In addition to the improvements we are making in the area’s communications network.

The League, a national conservation organization, will select outstanding high school senior boys for work with the U.S.D.I. next summer. To qualify, a young man must ex pect to graduate from high school this spring, be 18years of age by June 15, 1968, and should have definite plans to enter a college or univer! sity for advance study in wildjlife management, forestry, ! soil and range conservation, geology, outdoor recreation or related fields. Applications from Virginia students will be handled by a committee of the Commonwealth Chapter, Virginia Division of the Izaak Walton League and should be addressed to Chester F. Phelps, Chairman, P. O. Box 1642, Richmond, Virginia 23213. Each applicant must submit a completed employment application on U. S. Government j Form 57, available at any Post (Office; a transcript of his high school records, a written recommendation froman adult, other than a member of his family, who knows the applicant and his qualifications; and a letter from the applicant stating his college career plans, describing hisextracur ricular activities in high school including any conservation work he has done, and discussing his reasons for seeking summer employment with the Department of the Interior. Applications must be in the hands of the chairman of the selection committee no later than March 22, 1968. Bear Kill Bounces Back Virginia's heir hi r vest jumped from list yeir’s r cord low to a comfortable total of 339 during the season just ended Came Commission Game Division Chief R. 11. Cross reports. Augusta County led the state with 49 bears followed closely by Rockingham where 47 were bagged. Botet ourt County ranked third with 25 reported kills and Bath County followed with 23. Seven bears wem reported from the Dismal Swamp portion of Nansemond County. The contrast between this year’s and last year’s kill is typical of the direct correlation between the abundance of mast and the resulting beatkill that has been noted by biologists over-the past decade or more. In the fall of 19(ib mast was almost nonexistent because of a killing frost ir late May of that year while last fall there was one of the best mast crops ever seen in Virginia’s mountains. Although there is I in le scientific evidence to back it up, thd popular theory is that in years when mast is scarce the bears go into hibernation early and are not available to the hunters, while in years when mast is abundant they rent tin active throughout the hunting season. According to Game Warden Irvin Kenyon, four bear were taken in Rappahanhock County. Shork Shower Mrs. Philip Irwin was hostess Sunday afternoon at a surprise Stork Shower in honor of Mrs. Wade II. Massie, III at the Irwin home Caledonia. Jimmy Cannon Directs Play at Randolph-Macon Jimmy Cannon of Castleton, was assistant set director of Randolph-Macon Academy’s production of “The King of Hearts,” a comedy by Jean Kerr and Eleanor Brooke.

Located in Front Royal, Virginia, the school is in its 76th year of operation. Park Cabin Bids Acceptable Feb. 26 February 26 is the date Virginia’s Division of Parks will start accepting applications for state park cabins. The 1968 vacation cabin season will run from May 13 to September 30, announced Ben H. Bolen, commissioner of state parks in the Department of Conservation and Economic Development. All applications the division receives during the week of February 26 through March 1 will be given equal consideration, Bolen explained, and most if not all, reservations can be made according to the applicants’ choices of parks and weeks. After March 1, applications will be processed on a first-come firstserved basis, and in most cases alternate selections will be the only ones available. Applications from Virginia residents are the only requests the division will handle through March 10, and out-ofstate applications will be processed afterward, Bolen added. Cabin reservations must be made on official application forms, the commissioner pointed out, and a new type of form is being used this year. The blanks are obtained from state park superintendents or from the Division of Parks, 501 Southern States Building, 7th and Main Streets, Richmond, Virginia 23219. The new form is a double post card which the applicant will seal together and mail to the division office, Bolen explained. After processing the request, the parksdivision will fill in the confirmation portion and mail it back to the applicant, who will return the confirmation card along with payment. During the 20-week cabin season, occupancy is limited to one week, but the rental may be extended to two weeks if the cabin is available. Bolen pointed out. Reservations begin and end on Mondays. The 150 cabins, in eight of Virginia’s state parks, are fully equipped for housekeeping, the commissioner said. They vary in size to accommodate from two to six persons, and the rates are scaled according to cabin sizes. No charge is made for children under 10 if the bed and bedding are provided by the renter; but they are charged the same as adults, if cots and bed linens are supplied by the park. The state parks which have vacation cabins are Claytor Lake in Pulaski County, Douthat in Bath County, Fairy Stone in Patrick County, Hungry Mother in Smyth County, Prince Edward in Prince Edward County, Seashore at Virginia Beach, Staunton River in Halifax County and Westmoreland in Westmoreland County. No cabins are at Pocahontas Park in Chesterfield County or Natural Tunnel Park in Scott County; and two other parks that are being developed have none. They are Chippokes Plantation in Surry Coun ty and Mount Rogers in Grayson County. Also, there are no cabins at the three recreational areas Bear Creek Lake in Cumberland County, Goodwin Lake in Prince Edward County, and Holliday Lake in Appomattox County. Concessions in all 10 of the developed state parks and the three recreational areas will be operated from Memorial Day, May 30, through Labor Day, September 2, Bolen added The concessions include swimming beaches and bathhouses, refreshment stands, restaurants, boat rentals and riding horses. However, there are no restaurants and riding horses in some of the paries or in the recreational areasj the commissioner pointed out. •The parks and recreational areas are open year-round for hiking and nature study, inaddi tion to the seasonal activities. Information about facilities is available upon request from the Division of Parks office in Richmond. Bolen concluded. Tax Contributions Must Be Proved Failure to substantiate c h a r i t a b 1 e contributions caused some taxpayers to lost all or part of theamountclaim ed as a deduction last year. Substantiation of charitable contributions is one of the most fnquent problems encountered in the audit of tax returns James P. Boyle Dis trict Director of InternalRevenue, reminded Virginia taxpayers today. Another problem in the contribution area showing up on last year’s returns was the taxpayer who deducted thefull amount paid for a ticket to a charity ball, theatre benefit or banquet. Mr. Boyle said that only that part of the ticket price in excess of the value received by the buyer may be considered a charitable contribution. “When you pay $10 for a ticket to a charity banquet and receive a meal that would normally cost $4 then only $6 of your ticket may he considered a charitable gift,” he said. To help taxpayers avoid this mistake on 1967 returns, IRS has requested all charitable organizations selling tickets to fund raising affairs to clear ly indicate on the ticket the amount that is deductible. Identifying the deduction portion of the ticket price should end this problem, Mr. Boyle said. iSIalsIsIalalslE Thursday, Friday & Saturday Only 1 Kelvinator Refrigerator-Freezer IsStalstatslatalaSSBElatsStaSIaSEBSStaSBSStalE 15 Cu.

Highway Department Plans Annual Bridge Inspection Annual inspections will be required for bridges on primary route extensions within Virginia cities and towns of 3,500 population or more, under a new policy announced today by the State Highway Department. Local officials in 63 communities around the State have been asked to submit the first bridge inspection reports to the Department by July 1, and to provide such reports by that same date in future years. The policy is the same as that followed by the Department itself for years for bridges on the State’s primary system outside municipal limits and in towns of under 3,500 population. Some municipalities already make bridge inspections at least annually, but the new State-wide procedure is to assure that this is done uniformly in all localities. In a letter to municipal officials, L. O. Bolton, the Highway Department’s urban engineer, noted that the recent bridge disaster at Point Pleasant, W. Va., "has directed public attention to the safety of bridges throughout the couni try." This is also true in Virginia, he said, and has beenj reflected in letters to the Department of Highways in reference to specific structures. Some of these structures are located within the corporate i limits of the cities and towns, I Bolton said. i He pointed out that under ! State law, the State Highway ! Commissioner, subject to approval by the full Highway [Commission, selects the | roads and streets that are designated as extensions of the! primary highway system. If roads and streets selected as extensions are main- j j tained to a standard equalling! that performed on the State! j highway system adjoining the ! city or town, the locality receives $10,000 a mile annual ! maintenance payments. An inherent responsibility I in administering this portion of the law is to provide adequate assurances of safety, Bolton said. “It is therefore necessary: to require annual inspections! of all bridges on primary route extensions within cities and towns having a population in excess of 3,500. These ! ! inspections must be made by qualified personnel,” Bolton said. "In the event a city or town does not have qualified and competent bridge inspection personnel within its organization, then arrange m e n t s should be made for the inspection service by engineer consultants, acceptable to the Department of Highways, or the Department should be requested to perform the inspections on a reimbursable basis,” he explained. Assembly Considers Total of 1,717 Bills ! 1 I With a total of 1,717 bills i introduced in the House of 1 Delegates and the Senate, the ' General Assembly of Virginia ’ this week is beginning the bi- f ennial sorting process that c will lead eventually to the adop 1 tion of a number of new laws, 1 resolutions and the State’s budget for 1968-70. Only new bills which may be introduced now are those re-: quested by the Governor or by unanimous consent of the I legislators. 1 Most of the bills now are in the committee stage. Work-: ing early and late at theCapi-l tol, committee members are! fast reporting out a deluge of| legislation for consideration! on the floor of both houses.: March 9 is the adjournment! date for the General Assembly. Having already given their approval to Governor Godwin’s major programs, legis-! la tors enacted several other! Important measures this week Among these was a bill per■nitting Virginia to join the: National Compact for Educa:ion, and one establishing Vir-: ;inia Commonwealth University utilizing the resources >f the Medical College of Virginia and Richmond Profes-: sional Institute. Another provides for the use of flashing varning lights on vehicles, rhe revolving right-of-way und statute was amended, calling for the Department of ! iighways to set aside five mil-; ion dollars each year ofthe1' biennium for the purchase of right-of-ways. Legislators enjoyed some moments of levity at the expense of the potential victims of another piece of legislation, a bill which gives the Commissioner of Agriculture :he authority to combat blackbirds, starlings, cowbirds, grackles and other nuisance birds. Even as the Governor sign-i ed into law the National Guard; Compact providing a mutualassistance pact with neighboring states in the event of civil disturbance, the Legislature came to grips with another bill that updates the State’s riot control laws. The changes were recommended by the Crime Commission. A commission on the arts and humanities would be appointed by the Governor in accordance with another bill now pending. This action is an outgrowth of the Virginia Cultural Development Study Com-. mission’s report. Passed by the Senate without; debate was a compulsory school attendance regulation! vhich would require that children from 6 to 17 years of age i ae enrolled in either aTpublic ! ar private institution.

1968 Easter Seal Child Margaret Lucille Moyer of Ivy, one of the 7,889 girls and boys getting a helping hand from the Virginia Easter Seal Society, will be a very special young lady during the next few weeks. Margaret has been selected as the official Easter Seal Child for Virginia and will represent the Society throughout this year's campaign which begins March 1 and comes to a clirpax on April 14, Easter Sunday. Twelve-year old Margaret lives at “Bloomfield," Home for Handicapped Children, with her twenty-four “brothers" and “sisters" under the dedicated guIda nee ofDeaconess Frances Campbell, Resident Director. Regular classroom studies are provided at “Bloomfield* and Margaret is presently enrolled in the fifth grade. She writes all of her lessons unassisted and maintains above-average grades. .It has been difficult for her to'cope-;with the many physical limitations caused by a congenital limb deficiency which affects both arms and legs. However, by courageous inner determination, lots of constant hard work and a sunny positive attitude, Margaret has mastered the use of h'er two artificial arms in performing many activities of daily living. Besides self-care Margaret also partakes her share of chores, including making her bed each morning. She has attended Camp Easter Seal for the past four years and, throughout the year, she anticipates with much excitement the many camping activities which highlight her summers. She will assume her honorary duties March 5 with a visit to Governor Mills Godwin in Richmond which will mark the official opening of the campaign for funds to ca rry on the work of the Ea ster Seal Society during the coming year. New S.S. Protection For Young Worker New protection for the young worker and his family stands out among the new provisions in the social security law for the disabled. For young workers who became disabled before they had a chance to work under social security for at least 5 years, a new change in the disability benefit provisions is a boon. For benefits to be paid to a disabled worker and his dependents under the old law he needed social security credits for at least 5 out of the 10 years before becoming disabled. Now, if you become Sportsmen - - Join Up — By Irvin Kenyon Game Warden With the closing of the "bird" season last Thursday, the old double went back on the gun rack to gather some dust and the pointer went back into the pen to start getting fat again. Maybe it was an automatic or pump, or even a single barrel you used and maybe the dog was a setter or German shorthair. No matter, now it's all over and time for reflections on the quail season past. The general opinion seems to be that Bobwhite took a drop in population this past year. It was reported by many that the usual places where, "there is always a covey," did not produce any birds. This can probably be traced back to the wet and cool month of May last year. This was unquestionably adverse weather for nesting and for the young that usually hatch in late May or early June. Another indication of losing the first hatch was the sighting of small j quail in the early fall. They should be mature around September first. If some natural or man-caused disaster should befall the eggs or young birds, the parent pair will at disabled between 24 and 31, you need credits for only half the time between age 21 and the time you became unable to work. If you are disabled before you reach age 24, you need only 1 1/2 years of work under social security out of a 3-year period ending when your disability began. Benefits under this new provision are first payable for the month of February 1968. About 100,000 people--disabled workers and their dependents are eligible. An esti mated $70 million in additional benefits will be paid out in the first 12 months. This new law could mean benefits even for some people who have recovered from their disabling condition, or if they were denied benefits previously because they lacked enough work credits. You should seek more informaton at your social security office at 20 S. Cameron St., Winchester, Va. if you think you qualify. Card Of Thanks We wish to express our appreciation to everyone who contributed to the great success of the Bake Sale Saturday by their donations and patronage. Sperryville Methodist Church tempt a second and even a third j effort to raise a family. Each i subsequent hatch will be smalt) er, however. One thing in Bobwhite’s favor and hence the quail lover's, is that he's in prime condition [ right now. He had a bountiful | summer and fall, and "birds" killed during the last of the season proved to have full crops and had a heavy bead of fat around the crop. This fat will sustain them for some time even if the rest of the winter is severe. This brings us around to the quail season's future. At this point it looks bright. We probably have as many quail | for late February as we ever have and as stated, they are in top-notch condition. This means, of course, good parent stock. Soon Bobwhite will be looking for a mate for the year. This will be signaled by the first calls of “Bobwhite" you hear. After Bob calls in his female companion, recognized by the buff colored head, these two will share equally the rais-j ing of a brood. Even should his mate be killed the male will! look after the little peepers, j We will all hope for weather: and ground conditions suitable for nesting, hatching and rear ing. The weather is, ofcoursq out of our hands but with some of the other conditions, man can be helpful. Right now is the time to think about putting in some food patches. As the plowing for crops and gardens is done, the; food patch spots should also be worked up. There’s little time to work up food patches1 when it’s corn planting time.; In planning food patches several main points should be kept in mind. They must be free from grazing livestock, and Colon-rectum cancer strikes 7.1,000 Americans each year. Three-quarters might be saved by early diagnosis and proper treatment.

As with any planting the better the seed bed is prepared, and the better the location for growing,' the better the patch will do. This is not to suggest that you use your best bottom land for wildlife food, but often times a cornfield will have irregular edges which are difficult to plant and cultivate, but are suit able for a food patch. Stream bottoms or crooked grownup fence rows are also ideal spots for patches. The patch should not be too large, 1/8, 1/4 or at the most 1/2 acres, if in solid blocks. Long narrow strips bordering some natural cover are the best. Strips, 10, 20, maybe 40 feet wide around a grown-up, abandoned field or down through an orchard should prove fruitful, or maybe one edge of the garden. Strips along the road’s edge and right in abandoned woods roads will prove helpful to quail and particularly grouse. Seed variety that grows well in shady areas should be con-, sidered here. Some seed will be available through the Gam« Commission. This will of necessity be limited, but it is hoped that two bags will be available to every one interested. This will plant approximately 1/4 acre and will be enough for some folks needs while it will be only a token amount for others. Get your two bags of annual mix and then buy some additional seed if a larger area is available for planting. The Game Commission’s annual mix consists of a number of varieties, including Korean les pedeza, milo, rape (for rabbits), black top and brown top millet, cow peas and soy beana If buying seed, any of these varieties might be considered or a mixture of several kinds, A type of lespedeza is always a good choice. A check with the local Co-Op will help you decide which are the best producers in this area. Planting time should be determined with time of maturity in mind. It is desirable that the seed mature as late as possible since this program is intended to provide food through the winter. Annual mix should be planted in May or early June. Your seed sales man can advise you about individual mixtures. Don’t be too quick to burn or bush-hog the rough looking places this spring unless they are needed for agriculture. Those spots may be just the right place for a quail nest. Bobwhite is universally loved. Be you a hunter or a plain bird lover, there is nothing quite like the sight of a family of quail crossing the road or browsing in a field or garden. The knowledge that you have helped this wonderful little bird, will give you a grand feeling of satisfaction. Right now is the time to start thinking about helping Bobwhite and then do something about it. Prepare the ground, make arrangements for seed. For the annual mix contact your Game Warden or leave your name with the Extension Office or Rappahannock News. Sportsmen and outdoor addicts, join up and help yourself to some satisfaction.

The device used was an alpha scattering instrument housed in a gold-plated box. The instrument directed a stream 'of .atomic nuclei called alpha | particles at a small sample of I lunar material. The information conveyed to the instrument by backscattered alpha particles as well as protons from the sample enabled scierv tists on earth to identify certain elements and determine their amounts. Their tentative conclusion: preliminary findings indicate that the moon material is like volcanic material found On Earth. Apparently the same large-scale geologic processes were active on both. The actual origin of the moon, however, still remains one of science’s mysteries.

Virginia receives a well-illustrated 14-page section, with the emphasis on travel. There is also an article on Colonial Williamsburg's gardens, and a shorter article on the Dogwood, the State flower. Kilowatt Sales Up During ’67 Llectric power sales by the investor-owned electric companies in Virginia during 1967 totalled 19.2 hillion kilowatt hours, up 7.6 per cent over 1966. In releasing the report for the power com panics, the Public Utilities Associationof The Virginias said that total sales reached peaks in August and September when more than 1.7 billion kilowatt hours were sold each month. Commercial and industrial customers used close to 10.5 billion kwhs during the year, an increase of 6.7 per cent over the preceding year, liighr -: How To Safeguard Young Hearts s not*: This is tho first of a throe-part series of articles presented by your Heart Association to tell parents how they con safeguard their children’s hearts, os well as their own.) Heart attack is America'a deadliest enemy, claiming about 500,000 lives yearly. While it strikes mainly in middle-age, or later, the time to start safeguarding against heart attack is early childhood, when life-long habits are formed. Good health and heart habits begun now can reduce later risk of heart stuck. Intensive research is going forward to find the causes of hardening of the arteries, which sets the sttge for heart stuck. Until this knowledge is available, physicians generally agree that the individual can do much to improve his chances of living longer by minimizing certain risk factors. By setting a good example, parents can not only encourage their children to form rlskminlmizing habits that may last a lifetime, but at the same time protect their own hearts. Here are basic suggestions for parents: 1. Get the latest heart-saving facts and share them with your children. Your Heart Association has free literature on the role played by the heart and circulatory system in susttlnlng human life. Give children the facts they should know about heart attack, stroke, rheumatic fever and other diseases which atuck this system.. 2. Stress the importance of normal weight. Obesity often begins in youth. 3. Form good diet habits by serving more unsaturated fats (mostly vegeuble oils) in place of saturated (mostly animal) fats, and fewer foods rich in cholesterol. 4. "Encourage them to keep physically fit through regular exercise, and, if possible.make regular and moderate physical activity a family affair. 5. Teach children that smoking Is bad for health. Don't smoke yourself. Promote a type of self-dlsdpllne which will encourage the child not to start smoking. 6. Make doctor check-ups a family routine. Risks of heart attack, of course. Increase with age. Males are more vulnerable than females. Some families seem to be more predisposed to heart disease than others. These three factors— age, sex and genetic Inheritance — cannot be controlled. But you can control the factors already mentioned and thereby improve your risk. Take the middle-aged man with three major risk factors going against him — high cholesterol level in the blood, high blood pressure and excessive cigarette smoking. His chances of Incurring a heart attack are more than ten times greater than a man of the same age with none of these disadvantages. Generally, the same risk factors applying to children also apply to parents. High blood pressure — much more common In adults than children — Is an additional risk factor of which parents themselves should be especially concerned. If the doctor finds that an adult has high blood pressure, he can probably bring It under control through drugs or other treatment. In the second Installment of this series, we shall discuss diet and obesity In greater detail, and In the third Installment the subjects will be smoking, exercise, medical checkups, etc. Potomac Edison Schedules ’68 Construction of $34.6 Million The Potomac Edison Company has announced a construction program for 1968 calling for a record expenditure of nearly $34.6 million in its four-state service area, including nearly threequarters of a million dollars in this area. This is the largest one year construction budget in PE's history and will, in the words of President Charles D. Lyon, "enable us to vastly increase our capacity to meet the expanding power needs of our customers, and do it in the most economical and efficient way possible.” Allocations for the current year include all phases of the est sales were recorded in August and September. Residential and rural customers increased their purchases of electric power to over 6.6 billion kwhs, a jump of 8.6 per cent over 1966. Peak sales were recorded in January and March. The “all other” group of customers used approxi m a te ly 2.1 billion kwhs for street and highway lighting, lighting and cooling of public buildings and for other public purposes. The increase over 1966 amounted to 9.3 per cent. 1 (if you don’t wear seat belts) Published to save lives in cooperation with The Advertising Council and the National Safety Council.

Contractors are running on schedule with the construction of the new 30-room Rappahannock Elementary School, and the inside is beginning to look very interesting. This is a hallway with classrooms on each side which are almost complete. The rooms look very inviting with their pastel walls, storage cabinets, drinking fountains, spacious bulletin and blackboards, and shiny floor tile. memm*® rn — ..mm. . Va. Gets Increase in School Food Fund Virginia has been apportioned $6,173,587 for use in its school food service programs from the U. S. Department of Agriculture’s Consumer and Marketing Service. This year’s apportionment is $374,603 more than last year, at 6.45 per cent increase. These funds are to be used in providing help to Virginia schools that operate lunch, milk and breakfast programs. Although USDA funds make an appreciable dent in the expense of school food service programs, the children themselves pay for approximately 75 per cent of the cost with state, county and city governments contributing about 5 per cent. Virginia. and all other states receive these USDA funds under two separate acts--the National School Lunch Act and the Child Nutrition Act. The National School Lunch Act provides funds for schools taking part in the national school lunch program. A provision is also made under this act to give special assistance to schools in low-income areas that are not financially able to offer students the food service of the national school lunch program. The Child Nutrition Act makes funds available to help schools provide all students with milk at a reduced price or free of cost; furnish a breakfast for those students who are especially needy or who have been bussed to school from a long distance; and buy equipment necesWry fot 4he operation of a food program. The newest of these programs is the breakfast program which is still in a “pilot’* stage. Last year. 27 Virginia schools inplemented a breakfast program. A breakdown of Virginia's apportionment by program fol lows: National school lunch program—$4,358,807, up 5.22 per cent; Special lunch assist ance program—$113,382, up 183.73 per cent; Special milk program—$1,607,001, up 3.15 per cent; Breakfast program--$73,299, up 93.87 per cent; and Nonfood assistance program--$21,098, up .30 per cent. In addition to the cash that Virginia receives from the Consumer and Marketing Sep vice for use in school food service programs, it also receives donated commodities. During fiscal year ended June 30, 1967, Virginia was allotted 24,393,506 pounds bf USDA donated commoditiesXhaving an estimated valu&~-_.©T$6,763,172 for school use.

MBIT'if ~. ~i~—mil - -«i xsk v k Apprentice Program Available To Grads If you're the type of young man that books turn off, but working with your hands turns on—peirhaps you should become an apprentice. There are many opportunities for the high school graduate who plans to enter a skilled industrial trade, said L. G. Duenk of the vocational industrial education department at Virginia Tech. In the U S. tqday there are about 350 occupations which use the apprenticeship method of training. Included are carpenters, electricians, printers, upholsterers, tailors, painters, machinists and heavy equipment operators. To enter an apprenticeship, an applicant must first pass written or oral examinations which may cover mechanical aptitude as well as a knowledge of mathematics, English and science. Upon acceptance, the apprentice starts an ontne-jou training program supervised by a skilled crafts man. He works on the job, progressing through learning steps which are mapped out ahead. In addition, he attends vocational school for related classroom instruction for a total of about 150 hours each| .year. Apprenticeships will run from two to six years, depending on the trade, but most last for a four-year period. “There is a certain parallel between academic college training and apprentice-, ship training.* said Duenk. “Normally the typical college graduate spends f^urNio six years qualifying himself for his chosen occupation. The apprentice will be certified as a journeyman craftsman in his occupation after spending from three to six years in a training program. So in both cases we have a basic learning period, the difc ference being that the college student spends his time in the classroom, the laboratory, or poring over books at home, while the apprentice, during his learning period, spends his time working on the job under close supervision.* i There is one basic difference, however, between the i 81 u d e n t and the apprentice. While the college student is spending money for his education, the apprentice is earning money. His beginning pay is about half of the journeyman’s 3cale, usually from $1.75 to' $3 an hour in most areas, depending on the trade. His earnings progress gradually every six months, until at the end of his apprenticeship, he attains the journeyman scale," which is generally from $3.50 to $6 an hour, depending on the occupation. To qualify for an apprentice ship, one must be a high school graduate and not over 24 years of age. Since selection and entrance requirements are quite demanding, the applicant should have an above average aptitude and physical fitness for the occupation he selects. Applications for apprenticeships may be made to an employer directly or to the local labor union in the trade selected. Another way to learn more about apprenticeship pro grams is to stop in at your local state employment officer or at a local office of the Division of Apprentice Training. Tax Deductions— (Continued from Page 1) For those in the higher brackets, the reverse is true. Local residents who are in the $7,500 income category will be deducting about $1,590 this year if they conform to the average for that income. Those in the $10,000 class will have deductions totaling $1,980. The studies indicate that the biggest deductions among people in the lower income groups are for local taxes and for interest paid. These items appear in most other returns, ! as well. However, deductions for, contributions and medical ex-! penses rise rapidly as income: goes up. A breakdown of the $1,300 of deductions listed by tax-! payers with incomes equal to the Rappahannock County average shows that $200 of it is for contributions, $420 is for payment of interest on loans and on installment debt, $370 is for local taxes and $310 for medical costs. These are purely guideline figures, it is emphasi7.ed. The Internal Revenue Service will not automatically approve deductions because they are average. There must be proper records to support them.

The ,facts and figures were lerived principally from a rational survey of retail bust lesses, conducted by the Derartment of Commerce. The survey lists a total of 17 retail stores in the county that employs one or more persons. There are also a large number of smaller stores, family owned and operated, with no employees. Their total is estimated at 10. In general, throughout the nation as a whole, there has been a steady decline in the number of small businesses, the reports show. The butcher, the baker and the candlestick mak er are getting scarcer and the chain stores and self-service supermarkets more numer ous. The next result is that there are 160,000 fewer stores now than were in existence ten years ago. The total has drop ped from 1,897,000 to 1,737,000. Notwithstanding the competition from the big stores, however, some 700,000 Mom and Pop stores still flourish in the United States. Irrespective of the changes' in the store population, retail business in the local area has been on the increase. During the past year, retail sales in the county reached an estimated $2,305,000, about 3.2 percent better than in 1966, based on preliminary' reports. Despite the risks involved In starting a new business, many people take the plunge each year. For a large proportion of them, the chances of success are not good. Less than 60 percent survive the first full year, the records Indicate, and only one in five lasts five years or more. Most of the failures are attributed to lack of experience and lack of sufficient capital to tide them over the difficult first years. On the other hand those who come well-preparec! have a better than even chance of success.
