H. Scott, Chairman of the Executive Committee, Virginia Petroleum Industries. Pointing out that the holiday offers wonderful opportunities for travel and recreation, ^cott said certain basic suggestions apply to long and short trips alike. “Wise motorists,” he said, “will plan their route in advance so as to take full advantage of any points of interest along the way. If time permits, they may want to use the less heavily traveled highways, where some of the finest scenery can be enjoyed. They also will have a reliable service station or garage give the family automobile a check-up to make sure it is in good condition.” Scott suggested these common-sense driving tips for added safety on holiday trips: 1. Allow plenty of time; avoid foolish risks. 2. Stop every couple of hours for brief rest periods. 3. Observe speed limits and stay alert to road, weather and traffic conditions. ' 4. Be courteous to other idrivers. | 5. Keep seat belts fastened at all itimes. 1 June Rainfall Heaviest Since 1963 Heavy rains and some violenl storms have dumped 3.09 inchei of rain on Washington, Va according to Miss Ruby Jenkins who keeps the officia precipitation gauge.

USD A to Distribute Food in Rap. County ATLANTA, Ga.--The U. S. Department of Agriculture will begin distribution of US DA-donated foods to eligible needy families in Rappahannock County by July 15. USDA's Consumer and Marketing Service said space for storing the food, certifying eligible families, and distributing the food to those eligible will be obtained this week, and announcement will be made of the location. Families wishing to apply for food should come to this location. Certification is expected to begin by July 1. Russell H. James of Atlanta, southeast district director of USDA consumer food programs, pointed out that the decision to open a USDA-operated commodity distribution program in Rappahannock was made after the county declined to operate either this program or USDA’s food stamp program. Rappahannock is one of several hundred low-income counties that have been offer ed financial assistance from the Consumer and Marketing Service to pay local administrative costs of operat ing a food donation program. Normally, local governments pay the local costs of operating either the food donation program or the food stamp program, and the federal government pays for the donated foods or bonus stamps. James pointed out that US DA’8 decision to operate the program in Rappahannock County was made only after intensive efforts by the Consumer and Marketing Service and state officials to have the county operate a food program itself--eith’ er with or without financial ! assistance. | Rappahannock County declined to accept such assist , ance, James said, and for this reason the Consumer and Marketing Service will operate the program. Certi fication of those eligible to I receive the food will be j handled by C&MS personnel. James urged all low-income families in Rappahannock County who maybeeligi ble for food to make plans now to apply for their month ly issuance as soon as the certification office opens. Note: A building has been leased at the corner of Gay |and Jett Sts in. Washington 1 It will open shortly. 1 Slight Traffic Crash i A slight traffic collision I occurred in Sperryviile on Route 211 last Friday evening.

Mrs. Davis was returning home when Hhe found the fire company going into action and pulled off the side of the road to get out of their way. When she inquired she found they were enroute to her home.

The company was at the fire within five minutes after the alarm sounded. Inspecting the damage are Bradley Williams, Mrs. Davis and Joe Williams, and an unidentified youngster.

Letter To Editor Dearest Cathodia, I miss terribly the whirring of your selectors and hustle of our former life together. I do at times, however, enjoy the quiet serene life of my new location. It is nestled within the shadows of the Blue Ridge Mountains away frorr the hectic rat race of the big city but I must admit problems aris< when one seeks diversions oi interest to me. I have improvised a little gam< that affords quite some pleasun for me and at the same time provides an outlet for restless energy that accumulates froir working in these peacefu surroundings. You know I am programmed tc correct the stupid mistakes of my human taskmasters and for i while it was highly gratifying tc see that nice lady marvel at my abilities. I have become old stuff now and there is never an Oh, Ah or Wonderful uttered by any one Wednesday I had a terrible Master tube ache and was quite resentful toward the added work of the day so I decided to play my new game. I rewrote a few lines in a very important notice about a meeting of some school committee. I hear that one of the members ended up in Castleton looking for the meeting. I am not sure what people thought when they realized that I had placed the Culpeper Hospital in the ballroom of the Mayflower Hotel. I have been branded a sadist, evil doer, and many other terrible things but I really don’t care. These humans must learn to love and respect me for even though my heart is transistorized it is still a heart. Write soon, my love, keep youi grids hot and your plate voltage high. Yours, Diode We are changing our type* netting facilities to computer. If yum will bear with us a little while, we will try to keep Culpeper Hospital out of the Mayflower ballroom, etc. Read the Want Ads!

Any groups having an interest in any phase of Consumer Competency, Family Health, Family Stability, Family Housing or Community Resource Development is invited to attend. It is hoped that more groups will be interested in the services of the Extension Service in the future. *+*****>(c There’s a new addition to the world of paper fashions - we’ve heard that paper bathing suits are now on the market in some areas of the country. Seems like that would really be trusting your luck, so I’ll leave ’em for others to try. The paper world has also introduced a paper house which can be constructed to serve as summer cottages and these houses can be decorated with paper furniture. These products are possible largely due to treating of paper after it has been made. The structure of the paper remains practically the same. We’ve sure come a long way since paper plates and cups.

Barksdale accompanied your scribe to Richmond last Friday to attend a session called by Delegate Tom Frost to strengthen the thistle control program in Northern Virginia. Others in the group included Maurice Rowe, Commissioner of i Agriculture, E. W. Turner, | Landscape Engineer, Virginia [Department of Highways, W. H. Matheny, State Entomologist and R. R. Tudor, Extension Agent, Agriculture of Fauquier. The Rappahannock delegation went armed with a photo and a couple of thistle plants, the latter creating much excitement at the Capital as several thought we had come “to plant”the lawn! Not so. Our main concern was the use of thistle seed infested straw as mulch from the Harrisonburg area in seeding slopes on highway cuts and fills. Mr. Turner readily agreed to put out a directive to all district highway offices to use only straw produced within the county where it is to be used to which Mr. Frost requested that even then it be straw approved by Extension Agents. Also, Mr. Barksdale displayed thistle he had gathered along Route 522 near Flint Hill which had recently been sprayed with 2,4-D which showed untimeliness of application was completely ineffective in killing this pest. Highway Department was glad to learn this and future applications will be made either in the fall or Summer Sale Over 500 Pairs of V OFF LADIES’ SHOES JL/ dm Men's Famous Brand Suits, Sport Coats AA07OFF Trousers, Shoes hU^ ‘Forever Young” Dresses “Cos Cob” Sportswear “Kay Windsor” Dresses . . . and other famous brands 1/30FF 141 E.
