Supervisors Approve County Budget After Special Meeting Yesterday The Budget for Rappahannock County for the fiscal year beginning July 1 was the primary business of the Board of Supervisors at its June meeting held Friday. The $848,188 budget as proposed and advertised was not adopted, and a special meeting was held yesterday morning to complete this business. Other aspects of the meeting included lengthy discussion of the county dumping project, night meetings of the Board and more space for the local welfare system. A motion for the reduction of the school funds in the budget by $2,095 made by Supervisor Foster was rejected by the group. However, a motion made by Mrs. Betty Coates for the County Clerk’s salary for work as clerk of the Board to be set at $1,500 ended in a tie vote. The salary had been set last year at $2,400 and she was advocating a reduction of some $900. The salary over the years had been only $150 a year and a state revision on this matter occurred last year permitting the increase. wim me vote iiea ana me tie breaker, James W. Fletcher, unavailable at that time, a special meeting was held yesterday and his affirmative vote left the clerk’s salary at $2,400. The dumping situation in the county consumed a great deal of time with discussion as to abuse by the residents of the county and occasional negligence on the part of the refuse service. However, the refuse company is presently under new ownership land most felt that more efficient service will be rendered now and in the future. Residents are urged to use these facilities with care and avoid putting objects too large in the dumpster units. Resident Engineer James Skeens informed the Board that bids for the dual lane bypass around the Town of Washington have been let and the bids will be opened June 25. He said that construction should begin by August and a completion date has been set for November 1970. He also spoke of the meeting which is scheduled for July , 8 in Amissville to disclose and discuss the dual laning of Route 211 in that area. The two elementary school buildings which remain in the possession of the county were discussed and to use or disposition. In the final analysis it was considered that bids should be taken for the razing of the oldest portions of the schools located at Washington and Sperry ville. Treasurer Robert L. Brown requested permission to invest county funds so they might draw interest until needed by the county. Since all tax monies are collected at the end of the year, Laurel Blooming In Park Areas Superintendent R. Taylor Hoskins reports that the showy blooms of the Mountain Laurel are beginning to appear along the Skyline Drive in the Shenandoah National Park. The blooming of the evergreen Mountain Laurel heralds the coming of summer each year, as well as the beginning of the naturalists’ conducted programs on June 14. The best displays of laurel are found on the higher elevations along the Skyline Drive a little later. Early blooming laurel has been reported near Jenkins Gap (Milepost 12) and south of Marys Rock Tunnel (Milepod 33). By this weekend the bloom should have spread along the Skyline Drive. As spring gives way to summer, the procession of changing roadside bloom marches onward; and, like spring, the procession of Park visitors marches onward. Beginning June 14, naturalists will lead 80 hikes and walks per week and give 75 campfire programs throughout Shenandoah National Park. New this year will be the photographic walk (3'Vhour explorer hike from Big Meadows) and the short Lewis Mountain walk. All campground, picnic, and overnight facilities will be open by June 14 (as are!) as concessioner - operated and service station facilities). some of the funds could be invested to draw interest until needed for disbursement. The Clerk was asked to draft a resolution to be sent to the telephone companies serving Rappahannock requesting that calling areas for subscribers in the Washington and Flint Hill areas particularly be extended to cover a greater area or at least to cover the county. At present these two communities may call only as far out as Sperryville without paying a toll. The Welfare Department, according to state and federal requirements, needs more office space. The possibility of the county buying the Watts building in the town was broached by Welfare Superintendent Mrs. Elizabeth Butnin. This did not meet with favor as to purchasing me Duiiding, but was considered from the renting angle. The Welfare Board was asked to investigate this possibility. The consideration of the Supervisors holding all meetings at night was not passed as only Norman Wilbur and Mrs. Betty Coates voted in the affirmative. The request had been made by several organizations who felt that citizens might be able to attend night meetings. However, the majority of the Board members felt that attendance would not be great, (only 3 people attended the budget hearing that day and all left before the meeting was completed) and that it would limit them timewise. Accounts were paid before adjournment. Other business to come before the special meeting yesterday morning was the approval of the budget with the levy set at $4.10 and salaries of county officials as set by the Compensation Board were approved as follows: treasurer, $6,400 and his office help at $4,800; sheriff, $5,830, deputy $4,580, secretary, $2,340, jailer, $3,381; Commissioner of Revenue $5,800 and office help $4,800; Commonwealth’s Attorney $5,000 and secretary $2,200. One secretary serves both the sheriff’s office and the Commonwealth’s Attorney.

Long May It Wave - Flag Day - June 14 As I left Rappahannock County Elementary School one day early this spring, the wind whipped Old Glory and the Virginia Flag briskly on the flagpole. The heavenly blue background of the sky interrupted occasionally by a tuft of soft white cloud made a perfect setting for a picture which caused a shiver to tingle up my spine. I saved it for this week. Sgt. Garrison Wounded in Vietnam Sgt. Homer Lee Garrison, Jr. of Amissville was seriously wounded May 31, 1969 in Vietnam where he was on duty with the U.S. Army.

The proposed facility woui^l consist of adding a parallel two-lane roadway beside the existing road to serve westbound traffic. The present road would provide the eastbound lanes, except for a section of about 2,500 feet which would be reconstructed to ease a sharp curve. Added to existing four-lane sections and to projects under way or proposed for the near future, the section through Amissville would provide about 12 miles of continuous four-lane road from the west end of the Washington bypass to the Culpeper County line in Rappahannock County When completed as part of the Arterial network, U S. 211 will provide a modern multilane road from New Market to Arlington County.

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. Subscriptions (inadvance) $3.00 in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.50 East coast; $4.00 mid-west; $4.50 West. Today’s Woman Judy Burtner Extension Agent, Home Ecc All of us wonder from time to time, if we are getting the most for the money we spend. Temptation to buy is all around us. Does the money run out before your family gets all the things they want and need? Where are your wants? A car for father, a mixer for mother, a new bicycle, summer camp, or better education for the children? Are these only dreams? Your money may stretch to include some of them if your family works together to avoid the following six shopping sins. The first sin is “Spurchasing”. Do you make SDUr of the moment mlr^hasps', We might call them Spurchases. Many things are purely bought on impulse. You had no previous intent to buy them. Spurchases are usually small items such as housewares, magazines, soft drinks, toys, candy, fancy baked goods, and gourmet foods. But Spurchases can include big purchases as well...clothing, home ’ furnishings and even cars. Are you guilty of the next shopping sin •- “buying : unnecessary items”? This can : happen for several reasons. It may be your mood. When you are depressed, you may buy something to make yourself feel better. Maybe you make a purchase when you feel you deserve a reward or perhaps you buy just to keep up with the Joneses. Children urge you to buy whatever they see advertised on television. A shopping list will help you avoid this. Ask yourself if you really need an item or just want it because someone else has one. What another needs may not be what you need.. Buying needless things” is shopping sin No. 3. Everything is valuable to someone, btft there may be things of no value to you. Maybe your weakness is gadgets. You see a gadget and just must have it, although you may never use it. Consider your needs carefully before you buy. The fourth shopping sin is “paying more than you need to”. Here are examples of how to avoid this sin. When you buy on an installment plan, you pay more than when you use cash. If you have to use credit, find out exactly how much the final total cost will be. Shop for the best credit deal. For a major purchase, it may be more economical to borrow a lump sum from a bank or credit union. Look for legitimate bargains. There are genuine sales on most items from time to time. Also compare prices. Do you fall for “something for nothing”...the next shopping sin? It is almost impossible to get something for nothing. If you think you are, watch out. A good example is the towel, glass, or dish in the detergent box. Ask yourself, if you need and would use the item. Is there less detergent in the box because of the space it takes? Stores offer many kinds of promotions to attract the customers...games, contests, trading stamps, etc. If you save stamps, be sure to spend your stamp books just as carefully as you would cash. The sixth shopping sin could be called “snob appeal” Where do you shop? Are you paying more for elaborate packaging, convenience, prestige labels, fancy service, or free delivery? Will anyone really check under \rt~\ in* ervf'i n -i 1 ^ ^ ^- - - ~ label? Look for quality when shopping...but remember, price is not always the best indicator of quality. It pays to be aware of the six shopping sins. Important Dates The Chester Gap Homemakers’ Meeting has been postponed from the 12th to the 26th of June due to conflicts within the community.

Last Sunday’s hail storm was pretty general in distribution but spotty in severity. Orchardist reports ranged from little or none to heavy damage. It certainly takes a special breed to stick with the fruit business. They invest thousands in spray material to control the mites, aphids and diseases; worry through the frost season; pray through the hail time; and if lady luck smiles just right and everyone winds up with a bumper crop...well prices are down, or you just can’t find the labor to pick it. Think I’ll stick with the horses -- only I picked Dyke to win. Livestock feeders should take a close look at wheat as a substitute for corn this harvest season. Present future’s contract prices indicate wheat will sell well within the range of corn. Limitations to feeding wheat are as follows: 1.

For wintering beef calves where only two to four pounds of grain is used with silage, wheat can be used as the only grain. 3. For sheep, lamb feeding or brood ewes, use preferably 25% wheat in the total grain ration and not over 50%. 4. For swine, market hogs and brood sows, use preferably 50% wheat in the ration but may use up to 100% providing it is cracked coarsely and corn is priced substantially higher.

New Hunting, Fish Licenses on Sale Hunting, fishing and trapping licenses for the 1969-70 fiscal year have been distributed to some 325 official Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries license vendors across the state and may now be purchased, reports Fiscal Division Chief Sam J. Putt. Although the new licenses may be purchased this month, they are not valid until July 1. The current licenses will expire June 30. barly bird license buyers are cautipned to ask for the 1969-70 license and to check to see that this is what they receive. In past years, some persons have merely asked for a fishing or hunting license and then discovered some weeks later in the field their “new” license had expired. Buying next year’s license before the current one expires is smart because each July arrest records are swelled by large numbers of procrastinators who failed to get their new license before making that July fishing trip. Licenses are sold by county and city corporation clerks, plus many sporting goods stores. State resident hunting or fishing licenses still cost $3.50 and are valid from July 1, 1969 through June 30, 1970. Additional licenses are required to fish for trout or to hunt big game. Persons 70 years of age or over may purchase a special $5 Virginia Group Back From Abroad The various segments of Gov. Godwin’s European mission have been returning home over the past two weeks bringing back much encouraging news and some solid accomplishments. Certain little known facts about this mission are of particular interest to Rappahannock and surrounding counties. The participation of horse industries representatives was based on the recognition by the Commonwealth government that breeding is part of its Agricultural industries. This has been a bond of contention between the state government and the Warrenton-based Thoroughbred Association for a long time, said Mrs. Witold Kuncewiczof Flint Hill. Mr. and Mrs. Witold Kuncewicz from this area, Representative David Van Clief of Esmont and Mr. and Mrs. Clay Camp of Charlottesville formed a separate group within the mission with two basic aims: establishment of Virginia’s Dulles International Airport as the major facility for movement of horses and other livestock by air and the fostering of Virginia’s image as that of a top level Thoroughbred breeding state. Their enterprise at home, the use of publicity and industrious work abroad have placed such states as Kentucky, California and Florida far ahead of Virginia. In the course of an intense journey, Mr. Camp, Mr. Kuncewicz and Mr. Van Clief met with breeders, race horse owners. lifetime hunting, fishing and trapping license directly from the Game Commission’s Richmond office.

The consensus after the trip was that there was much room for improvement in trade and communications between Virginia’s horse industry and its important European counterparts. Also that the time is ripe for Dulles Airport to become the key point for domestic inter-American and trans-Atlantic air transportation of horses and other livestock providing proper facilities are installed and organized. Thus the work of the mission has just begun, to be continued'in' less exotic but more familiar surroundings.

ACP is the abbreviation for Agricultural Conservation Program, a joint effort between the farmers of America and the U. S. Government to conserve our natural resources of soil, water, woodland, and wildlife. Conservation has been defined as the wise use of our natural resources. Each day every one of the more than 200 million people in this country benefit from conservation. Whether we realize it or not, each time we take a arms oi water or Dreame a Dream of fresh air we are enjoying the benefits of conservation - past and present. A former Secretary of Agriculture once said, “A thin layer of earth, a few inches of rain and a blanket of air makes life possible. Take any one of the three away and life on this earth would become extinct.” The truth of this statement forces us to recognize that conservation is everybody’s business and concern. Each time we ride along the highway and see grassy fields, green forests, clear running streams, or breathe the fresh country air, we should pay tribute to the individual landowner who loves the soil and has been willing to spend a part of his income to preserve it and beautify it. We should also be aware that the Agricultural Conservation Program (ACP) has played a major role since 1936 in partnership with the landowner in his efforts to conserve these vital soil and water resources for all posterity. Legume and grass cover crops made those grassy fields that enrich the soil and to hold the rainfall. Sod waterways and many other ACP conservation practices prevent pollution and sedimentation of streams and rivers. Those green forests are purifying the air because trees doi breathe through their leaves. In| LOOK and LEArtN AC GORPON BY 1. What «u the highest temperature ev«$- recorded in the world? 2.

(Answers on Page 6) the process of growing, trees take in carbon dioxide, a poisonous gas, from the air and give off pure oxygen, so necessary for human life. ACP, by sharing the cost of forestry practices, encourages farmers to plant trees and to carry out good timber stands and improvement practices. In Virginia during the past 10 years, about 95 million pine seedlings have been planted under the ACP. Who benefits from ACP? “The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker,...” and all of the more than 200 million people in this country plus the generations to come. Most of what we eat comes from the soil or comes from fowl or animals depending on the soil. Much of our clothing comes from plants of the soil or from animals existing on the soil. The lumber for our homes and for our furniture comes from trees depending on the soil. Thus, the soil is our very lifeblood. We need it to eat, to be clothed and to be housed. We need the soil to live - the soil needs conservation to live. Yes, everyone benefits from ACP. Why do we have ACP? It was following the grim days of the early thirties when our lands were ravished by erosion, laid waste by dust storms, and inundated by great floods, that attention was focused on soil and water conservation as a national responsibility. The Agricultural Conservation Program was established by the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act in early 1936. Its purpose then, as today, was to assist farmers in making land use adjustments and in carrying out soil and water conserving practices. Designed to meet both current and long-range production needs, during World War II it provided a fertility reserve which was drawn upon to increase production and meet defense needs. Today it stresses the twofold value of conservation and production adjustment by encouraging sound land use adjustments away from intensive crop production. The feed grain, wheat, and cotton programs of recent years are examples of how millions of acres have been diverted from cropping and put into conservation use with assistance under ACP. Through cost-sharing, farmers invest their own time, money, machinery, and labor, amounting nationally to half or more of the cost of installing conservation measures. ACP assistance in the form of conservation materials, services and financial aid accounts for the other half. Correct Tax Errors With Form 1040-X Taxpayers who forgot to include all their income, deductions or credits when they filed their 1968 Federal income tax returns can correct these mistakes by filing Form 1040X. Mr. James P. Boyle, District Director of Internal Revenue for Virginia, said that taxpayers using Form 1040X need only enter the information required to correct the mistake made on the original Form 1040 or 1040A. Another complete tax return does not have to be filed. Errors in arithmetic will be corrected by Internal Revenue Service and an amended return should not be filed. About 150,000 taxpayers used Form 1040X last year when it was first introduced. The form makes it easier for taxpayers to amend retruns previously filed and speeds the processing of any additional refund that may be due. Mr. Boyle said a taxpayer generally has up to three years* after the deadline for filing a return to claim a refund. Copies of Form 1040X and instructions for filling it out are available at local IRS offices. \WANT ADS-~^ ffmsl (fii'cst funeral ^larlurs H. 0.

HALL OF VALOR — The famed “New Market Cadets" of Virginia Military Institute will be memorialized 'by a new museum now under construction at New Markets This artist's conception of the building, with its central core of “weathering steel" wafe released today by the New Market Battlefield Park, for which the museum will serve as a visitor center. The architect is Marcellus Wright & Partners of Richmond. The 247 VMI cadets created a legend of youthful courage by their heroic charge during the May IS, 1864, struggle for the Shenandoah Valley. The Hall of Valor will have motion pictures and exhibits on not only the Battle of New Market but the entire Civil War in Virginia. There will be brief references to the developing overall strategy of sides. A contract for the building was let this week with Thorington Construction Co. of Richmond for $680,000.

Phone 987-2311 Everyone Can Shop at th$ Co-Op Construction Begins on New Museum At New Market Battlefield Which Will Capsule Civil War History A new million-dollar museum to capsule the Civil War as it evolved over four years is under construction at New Market. Within its walls visitors will find a graphic introduction, through exhibits and motion pictures, to the military operations of the entire conflict. The museum will be operated non-profit through a private bequest to Virginia Military Institute, whose teen-age cadets of 1864 it memorializes. It will serve also as a visitor center for the 160-acre New Market Battlefield Park which opened in 1967. The park, lying in the northern part of the Shenandoah Valley, is within three hours driving distance of all of the major Civil War battlefields of Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. “I know of no existing museum which attempts so panoramic a view of the Civil War as we will give here,” said James J. Geary, park director. “While military developments in Virginia will N-O-T-I-C-E In accordance with Article 2, Section 22-62 of the Virginia School Code, notice it hereby given that the Rappahannock County School Trustee Electoral Board will meet in the Rappahannock County High School at 8:00 p.m., on Thursday, June 19, 1969, for the purpose of electing a School Board member from the Stonewall District. ,;c O. A. NORTON Clerk receive major emphasis, our exhibits will relate them to the overall strategy of both sides.” To be called the Hall of Valor, the museum is scheduled for completion in the spring of 1970. It will be dedicated to youthful courage in all of the nation’s battles as exemplified by the legendary performance of the “VMI New Market Cadets,” the director said. The 247 cadets left their classrooms to march 80 miles in rain and mud to this site for their first experience under fire. Their part in the May 15, 1864, Battle of New Market may well have turned the tide in a desperate struggle by 10,000 men for the Shenandoah Valley. Fifty-seven cadets were wounded, ten fatally. “The building will combine native stone and ‘weathering steel’ for a monumental effect that will nevertheless harmonize with the park’s rural landscape,” according to William W. Moseley, architect partner-in-charge for Marcellus Wright & Partners of Richmond, Va. “The unusual shape of the structure suggests movement to memorialize the battle charge of the cadets and to create an exciting walking experience for visitors within.” A circular central unit will have all-steel exterior casing. The steel will weather to a rich dark rust color.^Inside Fn a theater wltTBe shown the 12-minute motion picture, “New Market...A Field of Honor,” which already has won two international awards. A flanking wing of stone and precast concrete will contain the large two-story Virginia Room. Here colorful two and three-dimensional exhibits will trace in chronological order the Civil War’s military events in the state. Exhibits are being designed by Quorum 5 of New York City. Another wing will house the visitors’ reception area, and a memorial area dedicated to the cadets will connect the three sections. The Battlefield site and a fund of nearly three million dollars for a museum and other improvements were bequeathed to VMI by an alumnus, George R. Collins, of Charleston, W. Va. His will stipulated their use for memorial and educational purposes. Until the Hall of Valor is j completed, the ante-bellum! farmhouse, which survives on the Battlefield, will continue to serve as the visitor center, Geary said. flllllllllllllllll Select from Our MEN’S DEPARTMENT Suits - Coats - Slacks TopCoats - Jackets Shirts - Sweaters Florshiem Shoes Horrors, shudders, squeal and all that kind of stuff. I’m really going off at the deep end this time. My wife came home the other day and told me that someone had killed a big black snake down near the mail box. I remarked that I hoped it was not MY black snake, the one that had protected us all these years from rattlers and other venomous types. She indicated that snakes were snakes in her book, that the only good snakes were dead snakes. Of course she took offense when I inferred that that was a stupid attitude. Where do people get their aversion for serpents? Is it because of the allegorical story of the serpent in the Garden of Eden? If the ancient Hebrew legend Is true, that there was another woman in the Garden, Lilith, who caused Adam and Eve to sin should all women be abhorred? Heaven forbid. In Genesis 1:31 we read: “God saw that all He had made was very good.” There is good and so-called bad, or less good; an infinite variety in all nature. Who is to say what is good or what is not? Note Of Thanks I wish to express my sincere appreciation for the many acts of kindness shown me during my recent hospitalization and since my return home.

Marsh, Jr., said in Harrisonburg Sunday that “the tradition of campus government, stretching far back in history, places serious responsibilities on the great majority of young people who go to college to learn — and it has an historic disavowal of campus anarchy”. “We should keep in mind,” Marsh said, “as we read the neaannes about campus disorders, that they involve a small minority of the colleges. There are approximately twenty five hundred colleges and universities in the United States, and the campus citizens of these twenty-five hundred colleges, number more than seven and one-half million.” “The three great sectors in the campus community are the students, the administration and the faculty. Each of them have their own responsibility in the collegiate community. There is a duty and responsibility for student government to exercise leadership on behalf of the vast majority of students who want to learn to assure that they are afforded that opportunity. Future campus leaders should look for ways and means of providing a better response by the majority to offset the demands of a tiny minority who have frequently paralyzed the academic community. Students have the biggest stake in campus y “V- UUUUU. The 7 th District Congressman spoke at commencement exercises of Madison College here. “I have the impression that the vast majority of campus citizens, as with the vast majority of American citizens generally, have withdrawn to a ‘silent majority’ V\VVV\\\\\\\\\V\\\x\w COMPLETE ONE-STOP Building Supply Hardware Paint Millwork Lumber Warrenton Building Material Co., Inc.

In these remote years were founded centers of independent thought under orderly administration—the University of Bologna in Italy and the University of Paris in France. “There is a significance in this ■I aaa^ lov£' N°T/| :! ^A^ ; “No/.' they won't be able to do either.” CROSSWORD ♦ * ♦ By A.
