Rising Business Tempo in Rappk. Rappahannock County’s economy continued moving forward during the past year according to a report on the nation’s markets, just released. Significant gains were chalked up in the local trading area as consumers, with more money at their command, indulged in large-scale spending. The amount that they spent in the area, and what it meant for local retail merchants, are brought out in Sales Management’s new “Survey of Buying Power.” The copyrighted report presents data on income and spending for every section of the country. It shows that Rappahannock County residents had net spendable earnings in the year, after payment of their personal income taxes, of $8,096,000, as compared with the previous year’s $7,110,000. Just how much this represented, on a per-family basis, was determined by dividing the total income by the number of local households. It amounted, on average, to $5,783. What did local residents do with their bigger incomes? The figures show that they spent more for furniture, bought more air conditioners, refrigerators and fancier foods and, in general, treated themselves more luxuriously. Neither the surtax nor the higher cost of goods and services deterred them to a noticeable degree. As a result, retail business in the area was good. Local merchants accounted for gross sales of $2,555,000, bettering the previous year’s $2,224,000. Each community is rated in the survey on the basis of the amount of retail business actually done, as compared with its estimated full capacity. It does this through an “index of buying power,” which takes into account income, population and sales. Rappahannock County’s index rating is .0014 indicating that it is capable of producing that percent of the nation’s retail business. Since it accounted for less than that last year, .0008 percent, the conclusion is that some of the local purchasing potential is yet to be achieved.

With the aid of legal counsel a committee is investigating alternatives which could be used rather than such a costly project. The group has requested an audience with the Board of Supervisors as its regular September meeting tomorrow. The problem in Sperryville is that the Thornton River is being polluted by raw sewage dumped into the river from some 21 homes in the area. Most of these homes are located in the flood plain of the river and it is presumed that in all probability much of the soil will not accommodate septic systems or such septic systems will interfere with wells in this locality. This is a great problem which directly concerns only a few. However, with the proposed public sewerage system approximately 110 homes are involved and owners concerned. Many of these homes already have properly functioning disposal system approved by the local Health Department sanitation officer. The pollution problem was brought to the attention of the local Board of Supervisors in April of 1968 by the Virginia Water Control Board and at this time the local board adopted a resolution signifying its intentions of establishing a local Water and Sewerage Authority. The Authority was created and has remained dormant until recent weeks when a grant of $86,000 became available for use in Rappahannock County. Using this grant, it would be necessary to borrow an additional $164,000 to install the proposed system. All of the 110 homes would be required to hook up to the public system at a cost of $500 to $600 each, regardless of their present system, and to pay a monthly fee for service. The initial cost could be spread out into adjusted payments, in an effort to avoid a hardship on anyone. The proposed system was included in a comprehensive study made by an engineering firm for Rappahannock County. Among the fears of the Going To School? Many young people in Rappahannock will soon be leaving for schools and colleges away from home. We wish to recognize all of these students, so parents are asked to furnish us with the information who is going where, that they may be included in the lists. Shenandoah Park Opens Fall Season Superintendent R. Taylor Hoskins announced today that all essential visitor services in Shenandoah National Park will remain open throughout the fall color season. The Dickey Ridge and Byrd Visitor Centers will be open 8 hours every day during September and October. Outdoor campfire programs and conducted hikes will cease after September 1, but evening programs will be presented indoors at 8:00 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday in the Byrd Visitor Center at Big Meadows. The campgrounds at Matthews Arm, Lewis Mountain and Loft Mountain will close October 27. Big Meadows Campground will remain open throughout the winter, except during winter storms. Concession service facilities at Elkwallow, Lewis Mountain, and Loft Mountain will remain open through October 19. Those at Big Meadows will be open through October 26, Skyland through November 2, and Swift Run through November 3. The store and food service facility at Panorama is open year round. Skyline Drive is open 24 hours a day year round except for brief periods during winter storms Information service is available at Park Headquarters, 4 miles east of1 Luray, 8 hours a day, every day Sperryville citizens involved is the fact that the Water Authority has such dictatorial powers and aggressive means of action. For instance, should the public system not become solvent or self sustaining, the Authority could assess these involved homeowners to make up the deficiency and get judgment against their property if they failed to ante-up. In such event the owner has no alternative. The group of citizens feels that all possible means of rectifying the pollution situation should be explored before any direct action is made or grant accepted. Many feel a more conservative cost is possible for a system of some type since the present figures have no positive basis. It has not been ascertained even what size line should be run for the system. Culpeper Hospital Has Service Program The Board of Directors of Culpeper Memorial Hospital has approved a community service program designed to help local industries to cope with the problem of industrial injuries. Upon request, the hospital’s Emergency Room Supervisor will visit community industries to present a course in basic first aid to foremen and other key personnel and establish procedures designed to increase the effectiveness of services in those industrial injuries requiring hospital care. The hospital’s administrator, J. S. Markham, stated that the program was initiated by the hospital due to the frequency of h»dustrial injuries and because of our belief that the role of a community hospital should involve the health and welfare of the entire community. Industries located in Culpeper, Orange, Madison and Rappahannock counties are invited to participate and may do so by contacting Mrs. Alice Wohlleben, R. N., Director of Nursing, Culpeper Memorial Hospital, Inc., telephone 825-2811, extension 52.

Today’s Woman Judy Burtner Extension A rent, Home Economics Hospitality in Hie Modem Home Modem family living has moved the table for dining all about the house — both indoors and out Today’s family realizing the value of mealtime as a time of being together, move the “eating center” as needed to the areas ol the house in which all member: find enjoyment. This, coupled with the trend toward saving time and energy, smaller living space, family television viewing, living out-of-doors and the family sharing of games, makes for emphasis on more casual meal service than formerly. Any meal may now be served in the living room, dining alcove, breakfast nook, patio, porch or garden as well as in the real dining room. It may be served on the dining table or on the kitchen table, the breakfast bar, on a tray, a card table, or on a coffee table. No matter where it is served, the meal should be a happy occasion of family and guests. It may be a traditional meal served family style at the dining room table or with the plates served from the kitchen. It may be a buffet meal, a barbecue, a snack or a party where ever or whatever the meal, each place should be set attractively. Hie term “casual” is applied to meals served in the modem way, but casual does not mean “careless”. Nor does casual dining mean the omission of good taste or the sacrifice of charm. Gracious hospitality demands careful attention to details of comfort and appearance in providing today’s setting for well prepared food. Chairs, benches or stools should be of the right height for tables, tray stands or counters. Use a dull surfaced colored table covering instead of bright white for comfort when the table is set in the sun. Tray meal appointments that neither slip, slide nor tip over easily, are still evidence of such thoughtful care. This carefully casual living, emphasizing the simpler ways of meal time management, also is thoughtful of the homemaker. Now she can enjoy mealtime with family and guest.

From The Book m "But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like- a tree planted by the rivers of water; that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” (Psalm 1:2,3) This is a description of the righteous man. Note that he delights in the word of God. He also takes time for the word - he meditates in it continually. The results are happiness and firuitfulne&6. He not only has the leaf of profession, but he has the fruit of possession. His spiritual roots are deep in the Scriptures and his vineyard well watered by the fountains of grace. No wonder his undertakings are prosperous in the eyes of the Lord. James W. Adkins PANTHER TALES By Sandra Payne School is now in full swing. The S.C.A. held its first meeting Tuesday.

Jerry Campbell And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send and who will go for us?” Then said I, “Here am I! Send me.” Isaiah 6:8-9. In the sixth chapter of Isaiah, there is recorded Isaiah’s response to God’s call. Little is known about the early life of this prophet, but it is believed that he was a priest and was worshipping in the temple at Jerusalem when he answered the Call of God. The Voice of God is calling today as it did in Zion and we need to answer with commitment, “Lord, Here am I, send me.” Let us remember that God has no hands except ours. Prayer For Service: “O Lord take us and make us holy, Teach us Thy will and way. Speak to us and we will answer Command and we will obey.” Amen Eddie Stein, Miss India Birch and Miss Agnes Burgner, all of Washington, D. C. A Memorial to Harry Gallihugh “He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?" In Harry Gallihugh was seen a m,n who worthily lived this biblical concept of personal goodness He lived as he died, a Christian. Harry gave much to those who came to know and love him, and by his gifts to us he shared a bit of immortality which will find fulfillment at a later time. He was a true Mend, a good husband and a kind father. He shall long be remembered for his noble achievement of character and for the way he walked among us with dignity and honor like a true child of God. He always kept faith with his family and Mends and with his Lord. His broad smile and his deep sense of humor made him always welcome.

More Here Get Social Security New York ■ The number of Rappahannock County residents who are getting monthly retirement checks from the Government, through Social Security, continues to rise. A total of 897 former workers and their families, more than ever before, are now on the receiving end. They are benefiting from contributions they made, over the years, through payroll taxes, into the Social Security trust fund. The majority of the recipients are retired workers. The others include disabled workers, widows, ’^\\\\\\%\\%\\\\\%\\\\^ Beauty and PROTECTION that LASTS and LASTS This is a durable, oil-base paint that weathers season after season and still retains a fresh, new appearance.

The facts and figures are contained in the annual report of the Social Security Administration It shows the extent to which the pension system has been expanding in recent years and the effect of this expansion in the local area. The number of Rappahannock County residents receiving pension checks is 7 percent larger than three years ago, when the total was 838. The growth is the result, for the most part, of changes in the Social Security Act, made by Congress from time to time. They have had the effect of bringing more and more people under coverage. Nationally, at the present time, more than 9 out of 10 working people are covered by Social Securtiy or are eligible for such coverage. Along with the increase in the number of persons enrolled has been the significant rise in benefits going to former workers and their families. In Rappahannock County, the average amount received is now $763 per year, well above the $615 they collected three years ago. The increase, 24 percent, was greater than that in the United States, 15 percent. The rise in the State of Virginia was 18 percent. The combination of more beneficiaries and bigger checks has added materially to the inflow of cash to the local area. The official figures show that total payments to local residents, as of the beginning of this year, were at the annual rate of $684,000. Three years ago, by way of contrast, the payments totaled $516,000.

In a new program initiated last year to save some of these “failures”, Mcnroe College in Middletown, Virginia offers a one semester course called “A Program for College Success”. Tests are administered to determine the student’s areas of difficulty, and special work is assigned to strengthen his background. His classes emphasize writing composition and reading comprehension with concentrated studies in math, social studies, and foreign language. Upon completion of these studies, the student returns to his original campus prepared for a second try. “So far, so good,” says Monroe president Howard Wilbur. “All our retreads are succeeding. Mostly it is a question of the individual utilizing proper study habits and disciplining himself to the actual schedule of studying.” DRIVE SAFELY XWVXXWVWWIkWWVWV THE VILLAGE SHOP Main Street Flint Hill More Goodies — Come See!

A couple of weeks ago a friend was walking in my garden with me He examined my tomato vines and made the prediction that I would get no good tomatoes, the vines were growing too rapidly. Now, 1 hate for my friends to be mistaken, but, I sure do enjoy those luscious ripe tomatoes that I'm blessed with today. Before I retired some of my colleagues would gather around me $nd sing; “When the roll is called up yonder Si’ll be there.” Out of the corner of my eyes I could see them pointing downward. I would rear back and tell them: “Friends, my ticket says I’m headed upward.” Invariably, someone would say; (most of the time it was Pete), “Captain, you had better get a refund, you'll never make it.” It was all friendly banter, and as much as I appreciated their love .and loyalty, I was hoping they | were wrong. Whittier says in his Fternal Goodness; “I know not what the future hath Of marvel or surprise; Assured alone that life and death His mercy underlies.” May I say in my own behalf; “When I approach the Pearly Gate And it is opened wide, Oh, may the KEEPER say to me ‘Enter son, you’ve tried.” If you ignore it, maybe it’ll go away. And other famous cancer legends. In an all-out effort to avoid the truth, people have created some pretty imaginative phrases. Like the ever-popular "What I don't know can’t hurt me.” Very definitely an expression from the lips of a non-checkup goer. And what about "It can’t happen to me. I feel fine!” Or’’Never sick a day in my life.” You hear that a lot.Too much as far as we’re concerned. Especially from people who are finally forced to see their doctors. When it’s often too late. Logic doesn’t work. Facts don’t seem to sink in. We have no recourse but to fight fire with fire and offer some more meaningful phrases. Like "i in 3 is being saved now. i in 2 could be saved if people went for checkups every year.” Now, here’s our favorite. "200,000 were saved last year. Annual checkups can help save thousands more.” What are you waiting for? Don’t you want to enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing you’re doing the best thing for your health? If it’s slogans you want, we can give them to you. We’d put them to music if we thought it would help. Anything to try to make cancer a legend in its own time. But we need your help. .

E’Smuu VA5-8383 Culpeper, V'a A Trip To New England Submitted by Mra. Ruth J. Keyser For those hundreds of Virginians who have visited Arcadia National Park on Mount Desert Island, Maine, and for those who will do so in the future some historical items may be of interest. Established in 1916, Arcadia is one of the smallest parks in the national system but has proven one of the most important. Because of its proximity to population centers in the east, it is one of the most heavily used in the nation. Last year there were 2,303,300 visatations to the park - some 200,000 more than the preceding year. It was the first national park established east of the Mississippi and is still the only one on the east coast except for the Everglades. (Cape Cod and Hatteras are national recreation areas.) It is the onlynational park in the east with a rocky shoreline. There are many miles of good motor roads in the Park. Notable among them are famed Ocean Drive along the spectacular eastern shore of Mount Desert Island; Lower Mountain Road running from Park headquarters to Jordan Pond; Cadillac Mountain Road, an easy climb to the peak of the highest elevation on the eastern seaboard of the United States; and Sargent Drive along the eastern shore of Somes Sound. The Park is remarkable in its combination of sea, mountains, forest and fresh water lakes. Although some of the motor roads are beginning to get a little crowded by the peak of summer, it is easy to find wilderness and after due publication of this order and Ho what is necessary to protect his interest. It is further ordered that the fore"-'' ne portion of this order be aublished once a week for four successive weeks in the Rappahannock News, a newspaper having general circulation in the County af Rappahannock, Virginia, within ten days after the entry of this arder of publication, and that the Clerk mail a copy thereof to each of the said defendants at the post office addresses given in the affilavit herein within ten days after the entry of the order of publication and file a certificate of the fact in the papers of this cause.

Main St. ^nc* Culpeper, Va Phone 825-2161 — New and Used Cars and Trucks — solitude, there are many miles of foot trails, ranging from rugged to easy, through the mountains and forest, along the shores of lakes and sea. There are 50 miles of carriage roads in the Park which are pleasantly traveled on foot, bicycle, or horseback. This type of road is unusual in a national park and is part of the history. They were built and maintained by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who liked nothing so well as traveling through the Mount Desert hills and valleys by carriage when he had a summer “cottage” (107 rooms, 44 fireplaces, 22 baths) at Seal Harbor. The late Henry M. Keyser of Washington, Va. and his employer the Hon. Peter Augustus Jay were the first men to ride horseback over the bridle path when opened in the late 1920’s. Arcadia National Park was not founded by accident. Its establishment grew out of the determination of a number of people in the summer colony that this fine region should not fall victim to the despoliation of thoughtless private exploitation. The first decisive counter-measure to the saw mill was initiated by Charles W. Eliot, president of Harvard, who summered at Northeast Harbor. In August, 1901 he called a meeting to discuss the problem. The discussants represented an imposing cross-section of brains, professional and social prestige, and material wealth. They formed a tax free corporation named the Hancock County Trustees of Public Reservation. The charter stated that the corporation was “to acquire, by devise, gift or purchase, and to own, arrange, hold, maintain or improve for public use lands in Hancock County, Maine, which by reason of scenic beauty, historical interest, sanitary advantage or other like reasons may become available for such purpose.” Under the leadership of George B. Dorr, a Boston Brahmin, the Trustees received many important gifts of land on the Island. The course they had chosen proved at times a rocky road. After years of complicated negotiations, President Wilson signed a proclamation on July 8, 1916 declaring the lands were accepted as a national monument. During World War I a congressional act created the Lafayette National Park from the Monument. The name was changed to Arcadia in 1928. September 16, 1969 in the County Courthouse of Washington, Virginia. The applicant and any other interested parties wishing to be heard are requested to be present at that time.
