Warren County Sheriff Gary Keyser made a talk on narcotics, explaining the appearance, effects and results and problems of drug traffic. Many important facts were learned from his talk. Entertainment was furnished by the talented ladies of Flint Hill in the form of a comedy skit by a group and Mrs. Eva Smith with one of her famous recitations. Local Workers Gain On Social Security From a dollars and cents standpoint, how good a “buy” is Social Security proving to be for the average Rappahannock County worker? After he retires, does he stand to get back more or less than he paid into the pension fund over the years? According to studies made by the National Federation of Independent Business and others, Social Security is a real bargain for some, but considerably less so for others. Those who are now retired, or are soon to be so, are the big winners. They will break even in less than five years and, after that, they will be ahead of the game. For the young workers, who will be contributing to the fund for many years to come, it is quite a different story. To refer to the records, the latest official figures show residents of Rappahannock County to be collecting Social Security benefits at the rate of $663,000 a year. Only a fraction of that payout, however, was contributed to the pension fund in any one year by the recipients. The remainder came from employers and from workers who are not yet eligible for retirement. According to the studies, a young man in Rappahannock County, entering the labor force this year at age 25 and paying the maximum tax for the next 40 years, will personally be paying about $17,000 toward Social Security. With interest figured at 4 percent, this will accumulate to a fund of nearly $38,000, exclusive of contributions made for him by his employer. What he and his wife will get back, assuming that they live 14 years after reaching 65, which is the normal expectancy at that age, will be approximately $55,000. Taking Rappahannock County’s entire 25-year-old male population, now numbering close to 70, as an example, their tax payments and interest in the 40 years would amount to some $2,660,000, and their total returns, if married and living the full span, to $3,850,000. In answer to contentions that a person could do better by buying insurance with the money, or keeping it in savings, the Social Security Administration points out that financial aid in cases of disabling illnesses, widowhood, needy children and other contingencies are also included for the worker and his family. Rep. John O. Marsh, Jr. and Sheriff of Warren County, Gary Keyser, center, were guest speakers at the annual Flint H31 Firemens Banquet held there last Wednesday evening. Pictured with the speakers are Emory RuaaeD, Chief of Flint Hfll Fire Department and right, H. S. Barkadale who is president of the company and was Toastmaster for the dinner.

Main St. Phone 825-9762 Purebred Boar Nets Record $1200 Courtiand - History was made in the Virginia pork industry here on April 2 when a performance tested Duroc boar sold for a record $1200. This is the highest price ever paid for a purebred hog in Virginia. The boar was bred by F. S. Cittenden of Hardyville and was sold to Oscho Deal, a North Carolina purebred Duroc breeder. The boar was named F. C. 109 because it took him only 109 days to reach 200 pounds in the VP I Extension Service Swine Performance Testing Program. The animal had just one inch of backfat at 200 pounds and examination by sonoray showed over five square inches of loin eye. This sale was a joint production sale of F. S. Crittenden, Durocs; R. S. Ellis IV, Yorkshires; and Randall Updike, Hampshires. The Ellis herd is located at Buckingham and the Updike herd at Washington. T en Duroc boars averaged $321.50, 10 Yorkshire boars averaged $247.50 and one Hampshire boar sold for $230. Averages for open gilts were $105 for six Hampshires, $101.75 for 10 Yorkshires and $81.07 for seven Durocs, said Dr. C. R. Cooper, Extension swine specialist at Virginia Tech. Cooper added that the sire of this record-selling boar holds the feed ‘efficiency record in the Tennessee testing program and the grand sire holds the feed efficiency record for the Iowa testing program. From The Book “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” (Gal. 6:7) As surely as there are laws in the physical world, there are laws in the spiritual world. We can use the energy of electricity because we have learned many of the laws that govern it. As long as we make use of these laws of electricity, we can use it with good results. Many spiritual laws are revealed in the Word of God. When we make the proper us«t of them, we have good results. But violations of the laws of God call down upon the violators the consequent penalties. This is the law of sowing and reaping. If one lives in sin, he is going to pay for it sooner or later. Some pay dearly in this life while others fare well until the judgment. In that day all hidden sin will be brought into the open, and those who refuse Christ will be sentenced according to their deeds. “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Rom. 6:23) James W. Adkins tMWMMKTW»wl [III I J THE VILLAGE SHOP P Main Street Flint Hllljj BANKS — From Norway P — Come See — P fuea. thru Sat 10 a.m.- 6 p.nl Today’s Woman Jody Burtner Extension Agent, Hon* Economics More and more interest is being shown in carpeting for the kitchen area of the home. More and more questions are being asked, “Is carpeting practical for the kitchen area?” We have to admit it does have certain advantages; some which are readily apparent and some not so apparent. Some of the advantages are: it’s warm and inviting. There is less breakage, if dishes and glassware hit it. There is no need of mopping, waxing and polishing floors. Carpet keeps the heat in and the drafts out and carpet mutes the kitchen clatter and clang. However, it also has its disadvantages. One is its cleanability. Obviously carpets used in the kitchen must resist soil, not show soil easily, and/or be easy to clean. Wear qualities are important too. The fibers which have been found to be most satisfactory for kitchen use have been polypropylene olefin, nylon and the acrilics. Salespeople and manufacturers will have you believe that it is easier to care for a carpeted floor than to mop and wax a hardsurface floor. This depends on the family situation: are there small children and are there going to be a lot of spills, also, do activities other than normal preparation and consumption of food go on in this area? Each person must weigh the pros and cons and make her own decision. It means that we, as consumers, have a responsibility to learn a new way of doing things. It is different. Daily vacuuming will certainly be a must (perhaps more often if it is a busy kitchen). Spills should be wiped up as quickly as possible. Even though some fibers do not absorb stains, the fact still remains that soil will become embedded between fibers. The felted carpet is best cleaned by hosing which means removing it from the floor to the outdoors in most cases. It should not be “scrubbed”. Tufted and and flocked carpets can be shampooed. New cleaning materials on the market make rug cleaning easier than it once was. If a homemaker is thinking of buying carpeting for her kitchen, she should look for the following characteristics; a man-made fiber with man-made fiber backing that will not hold moisture and that is mildew and stain resistant. She should also look for a level loop rather than sculptured carpet and a medium tweed that will not show soil. First, the consumer should analyze her needs and desires and understand the performance she can expect from various types of floor coverings. Because of fire hazards in the kitchen, she should inquire about the flamability of the carpet she is considering and Itest a sample, if in doubt.

DMV Automation Aids Law Enforcement Officers The Division of Motor Vehicle® has implemented a new automated procedure to keep pace with the Highway Safety Program passed by the 1968 General Assembly. The Division is receiving well over 1,000 requests each twenty-four hours from law enforcement officers who need driving records of personsi apprehended for traffic offenses. These records are taken to the courts as each new offense is tried. Commonwealth’s attorneys make use of these reports in trying a case. If a person is found guilty of a traffic offense, the court or jury may consider the prior record before imposing; sentence. As the number of drivers has increased in the State, the number of offenses has also increased. To get these driving records out manually on a timely basis would be virtually impossible. Through the use of automation, the Division now produces over 1,000 driving records in about four hours machine time. The driving records are mailed directly to the jurisdiction in which the police officer is located. Where requested, copies are mailed directly to Commonwealth’s attorneys.

Security Notes As a new service for the blind, the Social Security Administration will now accept letters written in' Braille and will send replies in Braille when so requested. Social Security Officials feel the new service will help blind persons to better understand, and exercise their rights under the law. The more than 30,000 blind recipients of social security disability benefits, and the even larger number of blind on the social security retirement rolls, may now correspond with social security without asking for help from sighted friends or relatives. Blind people who are not beneficiaries, but who have questions about social security, may also inquire in Braille and can keep the Braille reply for reference. Braille letters received at Social Security Headquarters in Baltimore will be transcribed into typewritten form by Martha Seabrooks, a blind typist who has worked for the agency since 1965. The reply is dictated to Miss Seabrooks who transcribes it on a Braille electric typewriter. This typewriter, which looks and works like a standard typewriter, can produce Braille symbols as rapidly as printed characters can be typed. The Social Security Administration was the first Federal executive agency to purchase such a typewriter. To insure that Braille letters received at Social Security Headquarters will be transcribed promptly, envelopes should be addressed, Social Security Administration, “Attention’ Secretarial Services Unit”, 6401 Security Blvd., Baltimore, Md. 21225 Many kinds of birds make their home in downtown New York City, the National Geographic Society says.

Photo courtesy Northern Virginia Daily Rep. John 0. Marsh, Jr. Speaks to Flint Hill Firemen and Guests FLINT HILL, April 16 - Rep. John 0. Marsh, Jr., said here tonight that “the recent tragic and unwarranted destruction of our reconnaissance aircraft off North Korea is continued evidence that North Korea is a worsening trouble spot. It appears to be a part of a plan to gradually intensify the level of military activity by the North Koreans.” Speaking to the Annual Banquet of the Flint Hill Volunteer Fire Company at the Fire House here, the 7th District Congressman said: “Although South Vietnam has had the spotlight in that part of the world, there is growing evidence everyday that indicates we cannot ignore a situation that is growing more serious in Korea. “The seizure of the Pueblo and the destruction of the Navy EC121 aircraft are serious international incidents that receive worldwide attention. Not as well-known is that for nearly two years, there has been a determined attempt to try and expand the war effort in South Korea by a stepped-up infiltration of South Korea by North Korean infiltrators. The purpose of this may be to start a guerrilla warfare effort similar to the type that we find now confronting us in South Vietnam. “American forces in South Korea are required to be in a continued state of readiness and the efforts to infiltrate the southern portion of Korea are reaching the stage where they cannot be dismissed as random and isolated incidents. “It is becoming increasingly clear that North Korea is developing a highly-trained guerrilla force and resorting to all types of clandestine efforts to infiltrate these guerrilla forces to harrass not only American units but to intimidate South Korean citizens and conduct raids and ambushes on South Korean military forces. “A part of this effort may be to cause the withdrawal from South Vietnam of South Korean forces presently employed there, or it may be a broader plan to try and get a full-scale guerrilla war effort underway similar to the type of struggle that is raging throughout Southeast Asia. In all events, the most recent destruction of our reconnaissance aircraft points out that we cannot take anything for granted, nor can we assume that simply because an aircraft or vessel like the Pueblo is operating well within international skies or waters it is safe from attack. , “It seems certain that with the attitude of North Korea, we must furnish adequate protection of aircraft and vessels that are not capable of defending themselves, whereby attacks such as this can be repulsed, in order to protect the Lives of American service personnel as well as to insure successful accomplishment of these vital intelligence missions.” NEW, BIG 15 hp INTERNATIONAL CUB.154 LO-BOY.

North of Culpeper on Routes 15-29 Phone VA 5-8381 Culpeper, Va. No Forms Required To Buy Ammunition ■* Richmond, Va. - Hunters and sportsmen need only identify themselves to be able to purchase ammunition under the 1968 Federal gun control law, the Internal Revenue Service said today. There are no forms to fill out, but a person must show some identification such as a driver’s license to indicate he meets the age requirements set forth in the gun law. The 1968 Gun Control Act limits the sale of ammunition for pistols, revolvers and other handguns to persons 21 years of age and over. Ammunition for rifles and shotguns may be purchased by persons 18 years of age and over. IRS said that unlike the restrictions on the sale of firearms, a person can buy ammunition outside his home state. Thus, a hunter on a trip or a sportsman attending a shooting match will have no problem obtaining ammunition. Dealers are required to keep records of ammunition sales including the name and address of the purchaser. The Federal gun legislation enacted in 1968 was designed to help law enforcement officials at all levels of government fight crime. The legislation was not intended to place unnecessary restrictions on hunters, sportsmen or citizens using firearms for any lawful purposes. Administration of Federal gun laws is the responsibility of the Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Division of IRS. Smokey Say» MY BUSINESS IS FOREST , FIRE PREVENTIONV, WHAT'S TOURS?

(Aiuwcr* Page 6) Alaska’s Prospectors Drill for Liquid Gold Prospectors competing in Alaska’s latest rush for riches wear hard hats and run drilling rigs. Oil strikes above the Arctic Circle on the north slope of the 49th state indicate that huge reserves lie beneath the tundra. Preliminary reports suggest the wells may produce one to two million barrels a day by the mid-1970’s. The find, 195 miles southeast of Point Barrow, has been described as “one of the largest petroleum accumulations known to the world today.” Presence of vast Alaskan deposits has long been suspected, the National Geographic Society says. Travelers reported oil seeps 80 years ago. In 1923, President Warren G. Harding set aside 37,000 square miles near Point Barrow for petroleum exploration. Navy Hit Oil Geologists found oil in the region -- known as Naval Petroleum Reserve 4 -- during World War II. Drilling started in 1945, but none of the fields seemed rich enough to offset the high expenses imposed by weather and terrain. Winter winds up to 75 miles an hour lash the broad and rolling expanse of treeless tundra. Subzero temperatures annually generate only about 27 inches of snow, but gales whip it into 20-foot drifts, burying buildings. Permafrost, a layer of perennially frozen ground, penetrates to fantastic depths. The summer weather, averaging about 39 degrees F in July, thaws the top few feet of tundra into a liquescent marsh. Swarms of mosquitoes hum in the 24-hour daylight north of the Arctic Circle. To funnel the oil from this harsh environment, three major petroleum firms will build an 800-mile, 48-inch-diameter pipeline from Prudhoe Bay to the Gulf of Alaska. The $900-million line, scheduled for completion in 1972, will serve West Coast markets. Huge tankers may carry the Alaska petroleum through the fabled Northwest Passage to eastern consumers. The companies have outfitted a large vessel with an icebreaker bow and other special equipment to try the treacherous route in June or July 1969. Ice is Destructive It promises to be a severe test for the tanker. Summer ice packs near Point Barrow can grind against reinforced hulls, snap propellers, and flood engine rooms. The Northwest Passage challenged generations of seafarers before Norway’s Roald Amundsen mastered the savage currents and ice jams in 1906 by skippering the 70-foot schooner Gjoa from east to west. American ships didn’t succeed until 1957. Led by the Canadian icebreaker Labrador, three United States Coast Guard cutters fought from west to' east, passing through narrow Bellot Strait bordering Boothia Peninsula,, North America’s northernmost mainland. Roadsides Get Spring Cleaning Springtime in Virginia means budding and flowering all over the landscape. It also means spring cleaning for thousands of housewives - and thousands of Virginia Department of Highways personnel. Maintenance workers with the Highway Department are doing a lot of the clean up-paint up-fix up chores associated with the home. But they’ll be doing most of their work out in that budding and flowering landscape. In addition to appearance, the cleanup program also serves the function of preventive maintenance. Washing or clear-coating a sign, for example, may improve its looks and readability, but it also extends the sign’s usable life. Maintenance engineer John M. Wray Jr. has instructed that emphasis is to be put on the safety activity of machining THE RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS. Washington, Va. 3 Thursday, April 24, 1969 shoulders to retain the edge of the shoulder flush with the edge of the pavement. There is to be a general cleanup of roadsides, including rest areas, waysides and picnic tables. Clean and painted barrels for trash disposal are to be provided for all picnic areas. Signs, signposts, delineators, guard posts and certain guardrails are to be cleaned or washed. When necessary, signposts and guardrail posts are to be repainted or replaced. Mowing is scheduled for miles of Virginia highways. Advertising signs that have been; placed on highway right-of-way; Eire to be removed. Although it isn’t limited to the spring program, litter removal is an important part of the cleanup. An all-year activity, litter pickup cost the state’s taxpayers $661,847 for the 1967-68 fiscal year. This represented a decline from the $700,000 needed to pick up the trash that was tossed on or beside state highways the previous fiscal year. In Rappahannock the cost of keeping our roadsides clean during 1967-68 was $4,527. Read the Want Ads’.

THE RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS. Washington. Va. Thursday, April 24, 1969 “Miss Rappahannock”, Beth O’Bannon received congratulations from Donald Gore, right, chairman of the Rappahannock Jaycee beauty pageant held Friday and from co-chairman, Gary Deal, left. Business Population Up in Rappahannock Today, Larry L. Liles, district manager of the Baltimore office of Dun & Bradstreet, announced statement requests were mailed to 41 businesses in Rappahannock County. He said figures obtained from a physical count of the Dun & Bradstreet Reference Book for January, 1969 totaled 41 manufacturers, wholesalers, and -etailers in this area as compared with 37 in 1968 — an increase of 10.8 per cent for the period. Mr. Liles noted that each year business concerns in all parts of ,he United States are asked by Dun & Bradstreet for copies of heir financial statements. This /ear requests are being sent to nearly three million business concern — to the corner grocery ;tore, worth a few thousand lollars, as well as to businesses vorth millions. The Dun & Bradstreet teference Book lists those HOUSE PAINT Bring New Beauty to Your Home! Economical, protective and soeasy-to-apply! Great hiding power. Easy water clean-up. White. Custom colors slightly higher. RAMSEY HARDWARE — Front Royal, Va. — manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers who seek or grant commercial credit, but it does not i include some of the service and ! professional businesses, such as beauty and barber shops, security dealers and real estate brokers. Therefore, the figures for total businesses in the United States would be higher than the three million quoted above. When the owner or officer of a business enterprise, or his accountant, fills in and mails his financial statement to Dun & Bradstreet, it becomes a part of the credit report on his business and a factor in determining the credit rating of his business. Mailing the statement, rather than waiting for the Dun & Bradstreet reporter’s call, means a concern’s important suppliers will quickly have the latest facts on which to make credit and sales decisions. When the Dun & Bradstreet reporter receives a business man’s financial statement in advance of his periodic call, he can make a more detailed analysis of the financial condition of the business and discuss its operations more intelligently. Back of each listing of a business in the Reference Book is a Dun & Bradstreet credit report. The report includes the following: a record of how the business is paying its bills; a history of the business (who owns it, who runs it, and how long it has been operating); a description A beautiful pin with a Krthstone for each member of the family.

While credit reports are primatily used by business men who want to evaluate the credit risk of a business before shipping or selling, insurance underwriters, bankers, and other professionals also use reports. Mrs. Schmidt Heads Medical Program Mrs. Wilma W. Schmidt, of Arlington, has been named Community Liaison Officer for the Virginia Regional Medical Program. Mrs. Schmidt will coordinate activities to improve care of patients with heart disease, cancer, stroke and related diseases in Albemarle, Alleghancy, Augusta, Bath, Botetourt, Clarke, Craig, Culpeper, Fairfax, Fauquier, Frederick, Greene, Highland, Louisa, Loudoun , Madison, Nelson, Orange, Page, Prince William, Rappahannock, Rockbridge, Rockingham, Shenandoah, Spotsylvania, Stafford, and Warren counties; and the cities of Alexandria, Buena Vista, Charlottesville, Clifton Forge, Covington, Fairfax, Falls Church, Fredericksburg, Harrisonburg, Lexington, Staunton, Waynesboro, and Winchester. The Virginia Regional Medical Program (VRMP) is a federally financed program established by Congressional action in 1965, when a Presidential Commission revealed that heart disease, cancer and stroke accounted for around 70 percent of all deaths that occur in the United States each year; and that the rapidly expanding medical knowledge in the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases was not being disseminated and applied uniformly throughout the country’s health care system. The purpose of the Program, according to Dr. Eugene R. Perez, VRMP Director, is to balance the increasing amount of money spent for medical research with funds aimed directly at improved patient care, mainly through ^out £&emnal Sanitation to our TRUNK SHOWING of new Spring and Summer fabrics for luxurious custom clothes Friday, April 25th by HENRY THORN from This without question is the most stunning presentation of elegant fabrics we've ever seen . . . fabrics from the master weavers around the world.

Mrs. Schmidt, who attended South Hill High School in Pittsburg and the University of Pittsburg, served from January 1969 to the present as Administrative Assistant to the District of Columbia Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Association.

Security Notes Are you one of a number of farmers not getting social security credit for their earnings? Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, social security district manager, said today that some farmers do not file tax returns because they don’t earn enough to owe income tax. These farmers are losing social We’ll Help Your Mailing to Go Farther ^ Reach more people more effectively ^ with literature that persuades as well as appeals. We specialize in ^ quality whatever the quantity. ^Rappahannock flews Hackley, Rosalie Settle, Diane Woodward, Geraldine Baldwin, Beverly Payne and Charlotte Foster. security protection that they will need someday — or that their families may need tomorrow. Mrs. Crumpton said even if a self-employed farmer does not have enough income to owe income tax, he may still need to file a tax return in order to receive social security credits. If a farmer’s gross profit is $600 or more and his net profit is $400 or more the law says he must report his income for social security and pay the social security tax on his net earnings, Mrs. Crumpton pointed out. If he has a net profit of less than $400, or even a loss, but had a gross profit of at least $600, he may file, using what is known as the optional method, and receive social security credits for his earnings. Under the optional method of filing, Mrs. Crumpton said, a farmer whose gross profit is between $600 and $2,400 may report and get social security credit for two-thirds of his gross, regardless of the amount of his net income. If his gross profit is over $2,400, but his net is less than $1,600, he may nevertheless report and get credit for $1,600. Mrs. Crumpton said that a farmer who has not reported his earnings for social security has about 3 years to make the report, pay the back taxes due, and get the earnings credited to his social security record. A recent case in which a young farmer was killed in a tractor accident already illustrates the need for reporting earnings, Mrs. Crumpton said. The farmer left a wife and 3 young children. He had had a number of bad years in a row, with his expenses eating into his profits. But he had used the optional method and gotten social security credit for two-thirds of his gross earnings. Most important, he filed a return even though he didn’t owe any income tax. The family is receiving benefits of $132.60 a month, benefits they would not be getting if he had not understood the value of social security protection and provided for his family. Mrs. Crumpton said farmers who need additional information about social security can write for booklet number SSI 25. The address of the social security office for this area is 20 S. Cameron St., Winchester, Va. The phone number is 667-1511. Annual TB and Health Association Meeting Morris S.

Australia Just heard a song, ‘It’s crying time again’. When is crying time for us so-called ‘he men”? Do we cry because we are sad, frustrated, or just for the relief of pent up emotions? Some time ago I read a treatise on this subject. It seems that boys are taught that it is sissy to cry and that is a fallacy. Mothers should tell their sons: “Go ahead and cry, you’re a boy.” In so doing they relieve their tensions which in later life might cause psychological traumas. Do any of you readers remember the days (we had ours at night) of the B.Y.P.U.? As young Bible students we learned quite a few things about the BOOK, such as the shortest verse found in John 11:35, JESUS WEPT. We have been taught that, Jesus was a HE MAN type of person, a rugged individualist. So, if Jesus wept why should I feel like a sissy when I give way to my feelings, and go out to myself and have a good cry? It is like a refreshing rain after a hot, dry spell. It is assumed that we all have our disappointments. Maybe a friend has let us down, we feel lonely and neglected. It is at such times that we can look to the ONE who said: “I WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU’” Smokey Says: I Call Us For Shengas Carp. Phone ME-5-8566 Front Royal, Fo.
