Returning Teachers Host New Teachers The Rappahannock County Education Association was well represented at a banquet last Friday night. The returning teachers of both the Rappahannock County High School and the Rappahannock Elementary School entertained the new teachers and friends at the lovely Camp Skymont dining room up on the Shenandoah River. The delicious roast beef dinner was supervised by John Habel, the owner and a teacher at the Elementary School. The tables were decorated with centre pieces of fruit and flowers and lighted by colored candles in wrought iron candelabra. Mrs. Lewis Turner was in charge of entertainment, which included solos and group singing led by the talented new music teacher, Miss Linda Oliver, with her guitar, Gina. Contest games were provided by Mrs. Turner, assisted by Mrs. Matilda Walker. Appropriate prizes were awarded to the winners: Robert Meade, Mrs. Aileen Johnson, and Miss Oliver. The evening ended on a note of hilarity when Miss Oliver taught the group her favorite “wake-up” song, Praise Ye the Lord, with actions. 5 Fir* and Rescue % tSquad Notes U. The Rappahannock Rescue Squad took victims of an accident Thursday at the intersection of Route 522 and 231 to Culpeper Memorial Hospital. On Sunday Mrs. Norman Jenkins was taken * from home to Culpeper Hospital. On Thursday the Flint Hill Rescue Squad took Mrs. Jessie Rowzie from her home to Winchester Memorial Hospital. Ruritans Cease Care of Dump The opening piece of business at the regular monthly meeting of the Amissville Ruritan Club held last Wednesday evening was the question of continuing the maintenance of the county dump on the Viewtown Road. For some years the Ruritan Club has assumed the responsibility and care of the dump located in two different places during successive years. However, with the recent decision of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors to place collection receptacles in various locations in the county, the club decided to relinquish their part in this civic endeavor. Other business included plans for group attendance by the Club at the services of the Amissville Methodist Church on October 2 and at the recent revival services of the Forest Grove Baptist Church. As a closing feature the club members were thrilled by the expolits of their guest speaker, Dr. John Newdorp of Arlington, who took them on a guided tour of a 217-mile trip down the Colorado River on a raft, with a delightful hour of pictures. Dance at Sperryville Fire Hall Oct. 4th A dance is scheduled for Friday, October 4 at the new Sperryville fire hall under the sponsorship of the Sperryville Fire Department and the Rappahannock Jaycees. Dancing is from 9 to 1 to the music of the Country Buccaneers. Admission is $1.50 per person. Gentlemen must wear coat and ties. Ladies will not be admitted in slacks.

The alternate committeemen become alternate delegates to the convention. The county convention will be held in the Board Room of the Rappahannock National Bank on Monday, September 30, 1968 at Several Injured in Crash Thursday Several people sustained injuries in a two-car collision at the intersection of Routes 231 and 522 last Thursday afternoon. Bobby Mainfort of Charlottesville was taken to Culpeper Memorial Hospital and transferred to the University of Virginia Hospital, Charlottesville. He received lacerations of the head, fractured ribs and a perforated lung. Mrs. Barbara Welch Parker of Remington sustained lacerations of the face, possible fractures of the arm and leg and some dislocated teeth. Her two children, Sandra Kay 4, and Toni 2, had lacerations and contusions of the head and loosened teeth. Mrs. Mary Frances Welch, mother of Mrs. Parker, sustained lacerations of the face and possible internal injuries. They were all taken to Culpeper Memorial Hospital. According to Trooper Paul Dicks, Mr. Mainfort, operating a 57 Cadillac, was proceeding north on Route 522 and failed to stop at the intersection. He struck a 65 Buick operated by Mrs. Parker who was going toward Culpeper. Damage to the Parker vehicle was estimated at $1,400 and to the Cadillac at $500. 9 a.m. After the county committeemen are elected, the delegates determine which of the regular committeemen will serve as the committee chairman and vice chairman for the coming year. ASC county and community farmer-committees are in charge of local administration of such national programs as the Agricultural Conservation Program, the Cropland Adjustment Program, the feed grain program, the voluntary wheat program, the National Wool Program, acreage allotments and marketing quotas commodity loans, and storage facility loans. Each year, local farmers earn thousands of dollar through participation in these farm-action programs. The annual House Tour and Dried Arrangement Sale sponsored by the Churchwomen of Bromfield Parish is scheduled to be held Saturday and Sunday, October 19 and 20. Among the houses on tour will be San Jacinta, home of Mr. 1 and Mrs. Carroll Quaintance. Pictured above in the living room of that home are Mrs. Quaintance, Miss Annie Stephenson, Mrs. H. B.

Everyone is invited and urged to take {advantage of this vital opportunity. Time, date and instructors will be announced in an early issue. v The farmer and orchardist of today is caught up in the competition for labor and consequently must turn more and more to modern mechanization. The newest machine on the market for the fruit farmer is this apple picker which can also be used for other fruit. This machine, made in two p&rts, the eighth one produced, and the second one located in Virginia, is owned by Mr. and Mrs. Ted Triplett of near Castleton. The machine shakes the fruit from the tree with a large boom which turn*, swivels, extends as necessary to reach the limbs. It is operated hydraulically. The apples fall into canvas aprons and plastic tapes to prevent bruising and arc conveyed into bins set on the machine. A section of the machine is manuevered to each side of the tree, thus surrounding it, and the booms shake from each side. The wheels of the machine can be turned to roll any direction, forward, backwards or sjdeways.

Ily Irvin Kenyon, Jr. Game Warden Squirrel season will open in Rappahannock County next Tuesday, October 1. The season will remain open through October 15. A limit of 6 squirrels a day still applies statewide. The squirrel population appears to be good in most places this year. Check with the landowner and hunt safely. Close to 5000 doves were banded in Virginia this summer. Over 4000 being trapped and banded by Virginia Game Commission personnel. Nearly 1000 in the Northern Virginia district of which Rappahannock is a part. The age and sex of birds trapped is recorded and a numbered band placed on the leg before they are released. Banding aids biologists in determining mortality and productivity rates of doves. It also helps establish migration patterns, local movements and distances traveled. Hie greatest unknown in dove management is the effect of hunting on the overall mortality rate which is, of natural causes, quite high. Their reproductive rate is also quite high and so far as can be determined there is little difference in the dove birth and death rate between states that do and do not allow dove hunting. The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service have plans to up the 1969 bag limit to at least 18 birds a day, in an effort to further determine the effect of hunting on the overall dove population. They feel that an increase of this magnitude is necessary to produce any noticeable results. It is considered perfectly safe however, since the worst effect would be a moderate reduction in dove numbers during the following year only. Another word on dove bands. If you recover one send it to the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Riey will inform you as to where the dove was banded, when and bv whom.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Va. Telephone: WASHINGTON 675-3349 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the P. O. at Washington, Va. Subscription Rate (in advance): $2.50 per year in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.00 elsewhere. ECONOMY I place economy among the first and most important virtues, and public debt as the greatest danger to be feared. To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our choice between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude. If we run into such debts we must be taxed in our meat and drink, in our necessities and in our comforts, in our labors and in our amusements. If we can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of caring for them, they will be happy. The same prudence which in private life would forbid our paying our money for unexplained projects forbids its disposition of public money. —Thomas Jefferson Panther Tales By Stove Gore On Friday, September 27, the Seniors will receive their class rings. It will be celebrated by a “Ring Dance” that night. The seniors would like to thank the Rappahannock Jaycees_ for theii donation to help defray the Cost of the “Ring Dance”.

Office Of Changes Social security beneficiaries in this area who need to report changes of address or other events that effect the payment of their monthly benefits may now do so through the social security office at 20 S. Cameron St. in Winchester, Va., Hazel F. Daly, district manager, said today. Reports may be made by mail, telephone, or personal visit. Mrs. Daly said that up to now beneficiaries were encouraged to notify the Social Security Administration about the occurrence of these eventson postcard forms pie-addressed to one of six social security record centers throughout the country. Beneficiaries received the postcard forms when they initially applied for monthly benefits. The change in reporting methods is designed to reduce the time needed to change addresses and process other information having an effect on payment of monthly benefits. The change is prompted by the increased capacity of social security district offices to transmit the infomation over high speed communications circuits to record offices. In addition to address changes Mrs. Daly said that events that effect receipt of monthly social security checks include employment, marriage or remarriage in some instances, divorce, and death. encounter with a bee hive!

. n J°D/,y’S SWITCHB0ARD will become a thing of the past later this fall when full direct dialing goes into effect. At present, the Culpeper board serves Madison, Culpeper, Criglersville, Sperryville, and Grayson. Direct Dialing Comes Closer. New Center Expands Service The cutover of Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Company’! new multi-million dollai communications installation ii Culpeper, which was dedicatee last Wednesday, will bring the latest in telephone technology t< subscribers in the Amissville anc Sperryville areas. Hie benefi most obvious to the customer wit be the ability to dial long distance station-to-station calls, Oireci Distance Dialing (DDD). The nev system will become operations on November 17,1968. The principal speaker was Mr, Richard S. Gillis, jr., executive director of The Virginia State Chamber of Commerce, who lauded the free enterprise system and called upon everyone to “become crusaders for” free enterprise not forgetting “that freedom of enterprise touches all freedoms.” Other participants in the program included F. Wayne Dementi, who served as master of ceremonies, The Rev. John S. Farrar, who pronounced the invocation: Mr. C. H. Copeland, who gave the remarks on behalf of the Telephone Company) * Mayor T. I. Martin and Winfree G. White, chairman of the Board of Supervisors of Culpeper County, who delivered the responses; Giles H. Miller, jr., who introduced the Principal speaker; Rev. Horace D. Douty, who delivered the dedicatory prayer; and Father Maurice DuCastillon, who pronounced the benedication. At present, all long distance calls in these two areas handled by operators on an eleven position switchboard. Local manager F. Wayne Dementi, stated that in July 1968 as , compared with the same month . last year, the number of long t distance calls have increased by a [ voluminous 17 percent to a total , of nearly 20,000 calls per week. , Information and intercept service I has increased to nearly 1000 calls per day. In addition to the local areas, ; the present switchboard also serves customers in Madison, Criglersville and Culpeper. Upon conversion, the new more modem switchboard will serve an expanded area including Orange, Gordonsville, Unionville, Louisa, Mineral and Buckner. Hie present group of 30 operators will grow to 45 to handle the additional calls. Many new operators have already been employed and trained in an intensive two-week course. Gone will be the rotary dial of today’s switchboard and in its place will be a modern pushbutton keyset that uses electronic signalling. The result vjjMMte quickerJjiawprigjrf tojl Information and intercept mils will no longer be handled at the toll switchboard as an auxiliary service. Modem cordless consoles will put information and intercept operators in a space age environment. Even among all this modem equipment, there is one old-fashioned idea that will be retained with no modification. That is the telephone tradition of service to the customer. The operator will be there 24 hours a day, seven days a week, ready for routine or emergency service. A lady of my acquaintance asked me if I believed in reincrmation. I told her that I did. Why? There is an old legend that the first people were bi-sexual. They became proud and thought they were gods because they could create life within themselves. Their god became angry and separated the male from the female. In so doing he also separated the soul, giving to each a half soul. Well, in subsequent incarnations, as punishment, these half-souls had to seek their mates. This being apple country let’s use this as an analogy. Take a bushel of apples and cut each apple in half, mix them thoroughly, then try to re-match them. Hard to do? How about millions of people seeking their soul-mates?. So much for^togend. The Bible, in Genesis 1:27 “God created man in His image, male and female He created them.” In the second chapter verse twenty one, God separates the sexes because he ‘sees it is not Card Of Thanks I wish to thank my many friends, neighbors and relatives for their kindness shown me the phone calls, cards, notes and visits at the time of the death of my half-brother Malcolm (Jack) Jackson.

There are still some people who have a bisexual nature. Punishment? Are we to assume that, since man and woman once occupied the same body, that we have only a half of a soul? Is all the lack of harmony in our homes due to fact (?) that we have not found some semblance of the original half? O.K., but what about re-incamation? Well, let’s go back to the Bible again. Read Matthew 11:7-15 and chapter 17:1-13. Is Christ telling us that John the Baptizer was the re-incamation of Elizah? In John 9:1-3 to paraphrase Christ’s reply, “In this case, neither this man nor his parents sinned, but to. let God’s power be manifested through him.’’ Christ did not discourage their belief, that one can suffer for the sins of a previous incarnation. Does anyone dare suggest that Christ was re-incamated into this world as His final manifestation of His Sonship with The Father? Christ says that in the Father’s house are many rooms. Holmes, in his Chambered Nautilus, “Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul...each new temple, nobler than the last...” I’ll build up my house anew With istronger wallii. innf and floor; A stronger dwelling, and more true Hian served my soul before. Are we masters of our fate, are we captains of our soul? It seems to me that we should live the very best lives we possibly can, so when the soul takes ‘the way’ again it will be in a better world, because we have sown the seeds of eternal goodness NOW.

To what extent do local people use the buy now, pay later plan in their purchases of automobiles, dishwashers, furniture and other durable goods? In recent years, locally and in most other communities across the country, there has been a steady growth in installment debt. In the first six months of this year, alone, the overall increase has been nearly seven percent, according to Federal Reserve board and Commerce Department figures. It indicates a pronounced rise in consumer spending. The two go hand-in-hand. When spending picks up, so does the use of credit. As of the middle of this year, the reports show, installment credit in the nation reached $80 billion as compared with $75 billion on January 1st. It was equivalent, on the average, to nearly 15 cents out of every dollar of family income, after taxes. In Rappahannock County, installment debt at midyear came to an estimated $750 per family, based on the national findings and on average earnings and expenditures locally. That was the average amount. However, some families have no debt at all so that, among those that do, the per family figure is somewhat higher. For the local population as a whole, installment debt totaled Tr&nciscaji e&rthemu&re STARTER SET SALE SAVE $5.00 ON —s 16 PIECE c~ STARTER SETS NOW UNTIL OCT 5 Now you tan save SVOO un 10 jnet e starter sets in Amt'iu .I s lavnntc earthenware I ram is< an Hand « ratted patterns.

This includes automobile loans, credit on purchases of other I consumer goods, personal loans and loans for home repair and modernization. Excluded are mortgage debt, charge accounts 1 and single payment loans. The amount of debt, it is noted, varies from family to family but bears a direct relationship to income, in most cases. Local buying habits and consumer attitudes are also factors. In general, over $1 out of $7 of net income, after taxes, is going into repayments of these installment debts. In Rappahannock County, it comes to approximately $65 per month per family, on average. Are credit men worried? Not at all. They know that people are earning more than before and, therefore, can handle the bigger debt load.

Crickets Cause Concern Crickets have invaded many communities in Northern Virginia in recent weeks, causing much concern to residents and businessmen alike. At present, entomologists at Virginia Tech are not sure why they suddenly have become a nuisance. The last such problem occurred in 1947, they report. There are no specific control measures for this pest when it invades homes and businesses. However, John Amos, extension entomologist, suggests that roach control sprays be used once the crickets are found indoors. Outdoor areas can be treated with any of the approved grasshopper control materials. If large enough areas are treated outdoors, cricket population should be reduced. Amos cautions homeowners and businessmen to follow label directions in applying any pesticide. Such materials should be stored safely and kept out of reach of children. | (jfost funeral |Jarl0r5 1 I H. O.

FBI Reports Rise in Crime The FBI’s Uniform Crime Reports disclosed crime in the * United States rose 21 percent during the first six months of 1968 when compared to the corresponding period in 1967, according to figures released today by Attorney General Ramsey Clark. In making those figures available, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover stated that crime reports which were submitted voluntarily by law enforcement agencies throughout the country reveal violent crimes increased 21 percent as a group. Individually, these crimes showed increases of 29 percent in robbery, 17 percent in murder, 15 percent in forcible rape, and aggravated assault 14 percent. Volumewise, the property crimes as a group were up 20 percent led by auto theft up 24 percent, larceny $50 and over 23 percent, and burglary 17 percent. According to Mr. Hoover, all cities when grouped byj population size reported increases ranging from 17 percent in cities under 10,000 population to 24 percent in cities 250,000 to 500,000 inhabitants. The suburban areas also reported a 21 percent ris*?, while crime in the rural areas was up 14 percent. The FBI Director said the upward crime trend was consistent throughout the geographic regions of the country. The Northeastern States ! registered a 27 percent rise, the Western States 20 percent, the Southern States 18 percent, and the North Central States 17 i percent. Mr. Hoover specifically pointed out the significant increase in robbery and other street crimes. He noted a 34 percent rise in irmed robbery and a significant 28 percent increase in assaults with the use of firearms. Likewise, purse-snatching rose 45 percent and theft of personal property from automobiles 20 oercent during the six-month oeriod. A copy of the preliminary figures for the first six months of 1968 is attached. * Buy Your Furniture Now and SAVE AT KIBLER’S 30th ANNIVERSARY FURNITURE & RUG SALE NOW GOING ON Easy Credit — No Outside Financing GO!

Autumn Is Time for Control~of Weeds BLACKS BURG-During the autumn is an ideal time to fertilize and control weeds in your lawn. These two operations are very important if you want vigorous green grass next summer. October is probably the best time for these jobs, but you can start in late September if you are eager and finish in November if other activities interfere with your garden and lawn work. Lawns need regular applications of fertilizer to replace the plant nutrients which are lost from the soil by leaching or removed with clippings or thatch. The fertilizer you apply to your lawn will probably give greater benefits in proportion to cost and effort than any other management practice you perform. The use of fertilizer will promote a vigorous growth ol grass which will help control weeds. A dense sod will reduce the germination of weed seeds and smother the young plants when they start to grow. A thick lawn will also tend to crowd out existing weeds and reduce their vigor so they are more easily killed with herbicide spray. Lawns should be fertilized in the fall and again in the spring to avoid the excessive flush of growth which may occur if all of the fertilizer is applied in the spring. Also, the autumn application will help maintain the green color of lawns in areas having relatively mild temperatures during the winter. For most lawns, use 15 pounds of a 10-10-10 fertilizer per 1000 square feet. Broadcast the material uniformly over your lawn at about the time of the first killing frost. To reduce the possibility of burning, apply fertilizer when the grass is dry. Even better, apply just before a rain or water thoroughly to move the fertilizer down to the soil. Weeds may give you considerable trouble even though you try to crowd them out with heavy fertilization. Fall is a good time to spray with herbicides to kill most of your broadleaf weeds. Use a mixture of 2, 4-D and dicamba for weeds like chickweed, dandelion, pennycress, plantain, wild carrot and yarrow. Use as directed on the package. You will be surprised next summer to see how effective these materials are if you do a careful and thorough job this fall. Be very careful when using 2, 4-D or dicamba that you do not allow the spray to reach shrubs and flowers. These materials may seriously damage or kill some of your prize landscape plants. Therefore, use them with extreme care. One more precaution, 2, 4-D is very difficult to wash from a sprayer. The equipment you use with 2,4-D should not be used for spraying your garden plants next summer. The small amount of residue which remains in the sprayer may ruin your prize flowers and vegetables. For complete details on lawn care and fertilization consult VPI Circular 818, “Turfgrass Guide for Lawns,” which can be secured from the extension agent in your county. For more information on weed control secure a copy of Circular 1034, “Chemical Control of Turfgrass Diseases and Weeds” which is also available from the same source.

WALK AND BE ^HEALTHXf Don’t Forget—Your Feet Last A Lifetime In the vacation rush, the shopping spree, the sightseeing tour, vour feet are often overlooked—or at least aren't getting the attention they deserve. The average person, in a day's time, supports a combined load of several tons on the feet. During a lifetime, on the average, people walk a distance equal to 21/2 times around the earth. This is a big job for your feet, which are complex systems of 26 hones held together by muscles and ligaments. Few people recognize the close relationship between foot health and general health Foot disorders can not only ho painful in the foot, hut can also contribute to backaches, headaches. and even facial wrinkles. Women, in particular, are prone to foot disorders In fact studies show that 80 percent of all women have had or will have some kind of foot trouble. The family podiatrist, as a specially-trained memlier of the medical team, is responsible for the care of the feet He helps prevent and treat foot disorders He is often the first one to discover chronic diseases, since many of these are frequently observable in the feet before symptoms appear elsewhere. The American Podiatry Association. representing the nation s 8.000 foot doctors, suggests the following hints for foot health: • Cleanliness is essential. The feet should he washed daily. Special attention should be given to the toes and the backs of the heels. • Overexposure to sunlight or extra walking may cause your feet to swell. Relieve swelling and improve circulation in the feet and legs bv taking a 10 minute rest with your feet elevated higher than your hips. • When traveling long distances by car. take a short walk occasionally to reduce swelling caused by poor circulation or inactivity. • Anyone with corns, calluses. or other painful problems should, of course, obtain prompt medical care from your family podiatrist. For additional information, write The American Podiatry Association, ddOl Sixteenth Street, .Y.HWashington. DC :>0010. Your family podiatrist is trained to take care of foot problems and a Costume Class in conjuntion with the Western Show. Entries will be taken the day of the shows. Remind Eye Donors To Carry Cards { Registered eye donors] throughout the State of Virgnia I were reminded this week of the i importance of carrying their j eye-donor pledge cards in their billfolds or pocketbooks. The reminder came from R. Kenneth Hudgins, Executive Director of the Old Dominion Eye Bank, the Virginia depository for human eye tissue which is operated under the sponsorship of the Lions Clubs of Eastern Virginia. Over 25,000 Virginians have now registered with the Eye Bank their desire to donate their eyes on death to the organization. Eye tissue from human eyes, particularly the cornea or lens of the eye, can be used to restore sight to blind individuals whose loss of sight was caused by defective or diseased corneas. Hudgins said that there have I recently been a number of cases in which the priceless eye tissue of' registered donors was not available in time for sight-restorinei Apple* “Punkins” Indian Con* Cider Strawberry Corn Honey Williamsburg Pottery Local' Pottery Hand-Blown Gla*>s Handbags Baskets Furniture Kodak Film Old Hams Picnic Supplies Souvenirs Gifts JOHNSON’S MARKET ^^^en^vilL^ Virginia 22740 operations because the next ot Kin or medical authorities were not aware of the intended donation. TTie eye tissue must be removed within six hours after death and the transplant must be performed within 24 hours for satisfactory results. It is therefore vital, Hudgins said, that donors carry pledge cards on their person nd that they be sure that their family i doctor and close relatives are made aware of their intentions. Small orange stickers, bearing the words, Eye Bank Donor, for attachment to driver’s licenses and medical file folders, are available from any member of a Lions Club or from Old Dominion Eye Bank, 408 North 12th Street, Richmond, Virginia.

Phone 825-2161 — New and Used Cars and Trucks — Medicare Card Issue With Medicare now a fact of life a new card showing their protection under Medicare has been issued to the millions of people past age 65 who are covered by this program. Hazel F. Daly, District Manager of the Winchester social security office offered the reminder today that the Medicare card does no good in a safe deposit box or in a drawer at home. It is important, she said, that those who are entitled to Medicare carry IT COMES WANT COLOR... ' AS LONG AS ITS BL/LCJC/ J --—-v their Health Insurance (Medicare) card with them at all times in order to promptly and properly establish their coverage under Medicare. If a person covered by the Medicare program should require any medical care, being able to present a Health Insurance card would save time as well as help prevent passible errors in applying for Medicare benefits, Mrs. Daly said. Whenever a person protected by Medicare is admitted to a hospital one of the first things needed is his Health Insurance Claim Number. If the Health Insurance card is not available at the time of admission, the hospital must delay some of its processing until the Health Insurance Number is verified. Having the Health Insurance Card available will prevent these unnecessary delays and assure that all benefits due under Medicare are properly paid. This can best be assured by carrying the Health Insurance Card at all times. Mrs. Daly added that, although reasonable care should be taken to avoid losing the Health Insurance Card, if it should be lost it can be replaced. Anyone who has lost his Health Insurance Card should contact the Winchester Social Security Office so that action may be taken to issue a duplicate card. Although the Health Insurance Card is one of the most important cards a person may have, it is useless to have a card if it is not available when needed. As a person never knows when medical treatment or hospitalization may be necessary, it is best to always be prepared by carrying the Health Insurance card at all times, Mrs. Daly said. Party Loyalty and The Local Vote Which way will Rappahannock County residents be voting in November? How fixed has the average local voter shown himself to be in his allegiance to a particular political party? Interesting findings on the question of party loyalty and on (lie degree of shifting that has taken place in prior election years have been reported by the University of Michigan’s Survey Research Center. They were based upon thousands of interviews with voters in all parts of the country. The conclusion reached is that a person usually picks his party early in life, generally before age 30, and that his attachment is amazingly stable thereafter.

PHONE 675-3646 Only one out of five voters in the United States changes parties luring his lifetime, according to ;he survey. To what extent has this been the case in Rappahannock County? Hie following figures provide the answer. In the 1964 election, the local vote was 449 for the Republican candidate and 675 for the Democrat. In 1960 it was 426 Republican and 544 Democrat. Hie tally in 1956 was 514 for the Republican and 523 for the Democrat. Summing up the results of the three presidential elections, local voters gave a total of 1,389 votes to the Republican candidates and 1,742 to the Democrats. Thus, the Republicans ended up with some 44 percent of that total and the Democrats with 56 percent. How this compares with the State of Virginia as a whole is shown in the overall figures for those election years. The Republicans got 53 percent of the total and the Democrats 47 percent.
