Health Dept Issues Data On Public Food Service The Rappahannock County Health Department would like lief remind all church groups, clubs; civic groups, or any person or persons who plan to operate a temporary restaurant such as yard parties, buffets, community suppers, auction sales, etc. to contact the local health department for a food permit prior to operation. The Virginia Restaurant Law requires that all food that is prepared and served to the public must be prepared in an approved kitchen. This kitchen must contain the necessary equipment to provide for the sanitary preparation of food and the sanitization of food utensils and equipment. The preparation of food in the private home cannot be approved for serving to the public. A church kitchen, school kitchen, or kitchens in community centers are usually equipped and approved for preparing food which will be consumed by the public. A kitchen in the home is designed for family use and is used mostly by the same individuals who usually share the same colds and are subjected to the same diseases. Many more different diseases are encountered when the public ( Fire and Reseat | ( Squad Notes ( Amissville Fire Department responded to a house fire Monday at the home of Raymond Williams on Route 623.

The above requirements are waived if a church or group of people have a supper or meal for their own members once or twice a year and the public is not invited. Questions concerning the operation of a temporary food establishment can be answered by calling the Rappahannock County Health Department, Washington, Virginia at 675-3516.

The maximum loan or outstanding aggregate balance is now $35,000. Also the previous loan limit of $5,000 on drying equipment has been removed. Mr. Bardsdale said eligible producers may obtain loans to buy needed drying equipment as well as to Duua new structures, pomung out that the last few years have seen development of many new harvesting, conditioning and storage techniques for farm crops.

Travelers Asked to Report Traffic Hazards Richmond, Va. . . .Out of state motorists and traveling Virginians will shortly be asked to report any traffic safety hazards to the Virginia Highway Safety Division, John T. Hanna, the Division’s Director, announced today. Hanna said that with the cooperation of the Virginia Hotel arid Motel Association special post cards will be placed in rooms. The cards, stamped and return addressed to the Division, will contain space for reporting the location, type of hazard and suggestions for remedying. There will also be space for the sender’s name and address on an optional basis. Information received will be screened by the Division and, if appropriate, forwarded to the state or local agency most concerned. “This project, we feel, will not only give the individual the opportunity to participate in the state’s overall highway safety program but should be a valuable source of information for officials charged with formulating and promoting it,” he said. Noting that there are approS!mate*jNte,«»hbt& Shdtndlel rooms in Virginia, Hanna said the cards would be distributed on a selected basis to determine response. cured of cancer Eight-year-old Jo Ann Baca of Brighton, Colorado, has every reason to smile at the future.

Approaching Membership Goal The Farm Bureau Marketing Association’s Livestock Division is fast approaching its membership goal, according to Virginia FB officials in Richmond. A new concept in cattle marketing had been developed by Farm Bureau, and more than 200 key livestock producers have become members and invested in the program. “The response to our membership program in cattle marketing has been better than expected,” said VFBF president Robert B. Delano. Cattle producers in selected counties have been contacted during April, and livestock farmers in seven additional counties will be approached during May, a Farm Bureau spokesman stated. “Originally we were seeking 400 members to start the program,” said A. Grant Moffett, director of field services and program development, “but the response has been so good that we have reevaluated our sales program. We now feel that we can initiate our program with 300 members. “Once this goal of 300 is reached,’’ Moffett stated, “membership will be closed. New members will be taken in only after we have developed the program to serve our original members.” As soon as the program is declared operative, the Farm Bureau will employ a livestock sales manager to act as a sales agent for cattle in the livestock division. Virginia would then join with 16 other state Farm Bureaus that are operating livestock divisions. Virginia cattle producers would then be provided with cattle buyers in many parts of the nation. Membership in the marketing group is $100, and each producer is being given the opportunity to invest in interest bearing certificates to finance the program. “We are offering a livestock marketing alternative,” said John N. Parker, director of commodities and marketing. “It is an alternative, and is not designed to disturb any market which is operating to the satisfaction of the farmer.” Parker said the program was open only to Farm Bureau members, and the prime objective was to return to the producer the maximum share of the market price. The program has been offered to livestock producers in Northern and Southwest Virginia counties. During May, producers in Botetourt, Bedford, Rockbridge, Nelson, Amherst, Cumberland and Louisa counties will be offered the opportunity to join the marketing association.

The heady scent of the blossoms accentuate their beauty as they drape the orchard hillsides. Social Security Notes A survey’ of 5 million older couples who collect social security retirement benefits showed that one-third of them receive payments of $160 a month or more, according to Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, social security district manager in Winchester. Mrs. Crumpton cited a recent study of married couples with one or both members 65 or over who collect social security benefits. The study also indicated that about 20 percent of the older couples collect social security benefits in the second^ygfrfft brackJr-$140 to $160 a month. About 15 percent of the couples collect benefits in the $U5-$140 bracket, about 14 percent in the $90-$ll5 bracket, and about 18 percent in the under-$90 bracket. “Half in the bottom bracket receive the minimum retirement benefit of $64, or reduced amount if they elected to collect benefits before 65,” she said. Retirement benefits are based on a worker’s average earnings during his working years. They are funded by contributions to social security from workers and their employers. The rate of social security contributions, as well as the maximum amount of annual earnings subject to contributions, has been increased through the years to keep benefits in line with earnings, according to Mrs. Crumpton. Men and women may begin collecting full monthly retirement benefits based on their own earnings record at 65-or an acturially reduced benefit at 62, Mrs. Crumpton said. A retired man’s wife receives an amount equal to half of his benefit when she’s 65~or earlier if she has dependent children. She may also receive reduced benefits between 62 and 65 even if she has no dependent children. A wife may collect social security on her own record if such benefits are higher than her benefit as a wife, she said. For complete information about filing for benefits you may call our office in Winchester at 667-1511 Annual WSCS District Meeting The annual meeting of the Charlottesville District Women’s Society of Christian Service and Wesleyan Service Guilds will be held on Thursday, May 6 at the First United Methodist Church, Charlottesville, beginning at 10 a.m. with the District President, Mrs. Ralph D.

The four-mile test over 22 timber fences highlights a diversified six-race program to be held on the local Broadview Course Saturday, starting at 2 p.m. A 6-year-old gelding trained by A. Ridgely White and ridden by Willie Moore, Chapel Street is a winner of two unsanctioned pointto-point races and the Deep Run Hunt Cup at Richmond and the Middleburg Hunt Cup at Mid$eburg this season. Although introduced to thoroughbred racing via the timber division, Paul Mellon of Upperville is better known today for his flat runners. Last year he fielded Fort Marcy, who gained honors as The Horse of the Year. Two former Virginia Gold Cup winners will be seeking a second triumph in the gruelling test of horse and rider. They are King of Spades, bred and owned by Dr. Joseph M. Rogers of Hamilton, and Annual Meeting, the property of John W. Warner of Upperville. King of Spades won last year in me colors of Thomas H. McKoy, Jr., owner of Highland Wedding, winner of England’s Grand National in 1969. Then trained by A. Ridgely White and ridden by Willie Moore, Annual Meeting scored for Mr. Warner in 1969.

Are local families larger or smaller than those in other communities? The question of family size, family planning and the placing of limitations on the concentration of population to keep it within manageable levels has become the subject of a national dialogue. Biologists, ecologists and others are greatly concerned about the steady deterioration of the environment through air pollution, the piling up of waste products, the contamination of rivers and lakes and the rapid rate at which we are using up our natural resources. As voiced by Prof. John Thomas of Stanford University, “When we can deal adequately with the people we have now, giving everyone enough food, housing, clothing, peace, love, purpose and opportunity to achieve and fulfill themselves, we can then talk about more people and larger populations-not before." In Rappahannock County, according to the current census figures, which show a population of 5,199 distributed among some 1,548 households, there is an average of 336 persons per 100 local, households. This is more than is reported for most sections of the United States, the average being 320 per 100 households. In the South Atlantic States it is 325. The Department of Commerce points out that, with mortality conditions as they are now, the number of children born need only be 2.13 per family to maintain the national population at its present level. Actually, in recent years, the number of children per family has been far greater than that, 3.18, which accounts for the overall growth in population, 13.3 percent in the last 10 years. President Nixon has taken note of the rising population pressures and their affect on the quality of daily life by appointing a “Commission on Population Growth and the American Future,” with John D. Rockefeller 3rd as chairman. It does not mean that government is going to tell parents that they can have only one or two children. Rather, it is explained, it will seek to anticipate and deal with growth and migration problems.

Robinson Advocates Judges Under Scrutiny Rep. J. Kenneth Robinson has joined in sponsoring legislation to require federal judges, including justices of the Supreme Court, to obtain advance approval of outside earnings, including the practice of law. The bill also would require the judges to submit annual income statements, which would be kept on file with the Federal Judicial Conference and be available for public disclosure. Under the legislation, where outside work for pay would not interfere with judicial duties, such as lecturing for a fee, advance approval could be granted by the Judicial Council or other appropriate authorities. I “It is important thatthe public have confidence in the courts, and doubts arise when justices of the Supreme Court, or other federal judges, accept compensation for outside activities which might seem to involve a conflict of interest, even though, technically, they do not,” the 7th District Congressman commented.

PHONE 635-3556 Front Royal, Fa Linen Closets Take New Look Linen closets are taking on a new look as homemakers take advantage of today’s varied offerings in sheets and other linens, reported an extension specialist in home economics. “Durable press sheets are now on the market,” explained Katherine Habel, Virginia Tech assistant professor in clothing, textiles and related arts. “They cost slightly more than do regular sheets, but, since they need no ironing and stay neat while in use, they save time and money,” she said. Selecting sheets from today’s offerings could be fun, Miss Habel hinted. “Muslin and percale are two sheet fabrics most homemakers know from the past. But, today’s muslins and percales are different. “Sheets are still available in regular muslin or percale allcotton fabrics. They are also available as durable-press, polyester cottons. Percales, with from 180 to 200 or more threads per square inch, are finer and smoother than the 128 to 140 threaded muslins. Shoppers can expect to pay a little more for the percales,” said the extension home economist. Miss Habel told of the colors and patterns available at linen display centers. “White sheets are still available," she said, “but often shoppers have to ask about them. The displays seem to emphasize durable-press, bold or soft colors, stripes and florals. Some sheets even carry the names of famous designers. “Buyers can also expect to pay Charles E.

Homegrown Trail Ride By Mary Jamieson April 25th and the most beautiful Spring day Rappahannock has experienced in many a season, 71 riders and horses trailed over the blossoming mountains to the Shackelford Place for a sunny Sunday picnic. With the exception of a light sprinkling of Foxcroft girls and Episcopal High boys, and three out-of^county guests, this assemblage was homegrown. The range of horsemen who came out, shows that in our county people often ride before they can walk, and often keep on until they can’t walk. Camden Littleton, now two years old rode the entire ten miles on the pommel of her Mother Cathy’s saddle and there were others of us there who have been riding horses since time out of memory. After a three and a half hour ride, a welcome sight it was, the broad terrace lawn of that seidate old Shackelford House, alive with picnickers ready to succor us weary mountain travellers. In fact, the least weary, most hungry, and (I might add,) youngest riders broke into an enthusiastic gallop across the green bottomland that spreads like a sea between steep-sided Juba Mountain and Monteplier. They charged the picnic ground in no uncertain fashion. Over 50 Rappahannockers had already set up their tables and were displaying delicious and exotic fare such as steak tartar, Swedish meat balls, caviar covered eggs, curried venison and cucumber sandwiches along with the great old favorites of fried chicken, ham biscuits and apple pie. Only one unfortunate episode marred our otherwise dandy, blue-sky afternoon: Em Durant, full of her usual gaity and zest, was stopped literally, in her tracks, when the iron-clad hoof of a horse stepped on her foot and broke a bone. High lights of the mountain ride were many. We started off from Fletcher’s Double Gates to Millie’s Cabin, climbed the trail up Fielding to the vast view encompassing the top of Lane’s high pasture. There we got a blasting view from Mary’s Rock to Bessie Bell and on south of Woodville. Then we rode through Lane’s orchard. The word, “Heavenly,” was heard repeated by rider after rider, by high voices, low voices, swoony voices, delighted voices, as we filed through the alleys between the pinkish white walls of blossoming trees. Never, but never, has anything smelled so utterly lovely. We floated out of this experience on to Clover Hill, where the Lee Payne’s gave us refreshment to whet our enthusiasm for the rest of the ride. Slaughter Mountain soared above Clover Hill, and we soared right up it, though it must be confessed, in a huffing, puffing fashion. Dunnie Eastham wearing a sporty, broadbrimmed hat looked Rappahannockpicturesque as Dunnie certainly can, riding his white horse up through the dogwood-clad hillside toward the rolling white clouds of a vivid blue sky. Hear, hear! Jim Bill Fletcher led us on over Washington Bridge Club Entertained Mrs. Rayner V. Snead entertained the Washington Bridge Club Thursday evening at her home Fair lea. 8 Guests were Mrs. E. M. Jones, Mrs. Harry Lee Smith, Mrs. W. F. Moffett, jr., Mrs. F. W. Spalding, Mrs. T. C.

There is a pasture branch, Kate Oettinger’s two plucky saddle horses, ridden by Kate and Molly Van Brederode, nearly repeated their last winer’s experience of getting stranded in Canterbury’s swimming pool, when they went belly-deep in that muddy stream. We proceeded past Jerry Jenkins home, Walter Masterson’s, and the Van Horn Place to climb the great sprawling sides of Juba Mountain. There the red bud was so thick and plentiful, it cast a fushia hue over an entire slope on the east side. However aesthetically satisfying these trail riding experiences were, the last descent scattered all thoughts of colors and aromas right out of the minds of horses and riders. So threatenly steep is the soft, rolling-rock, rootcrossed path that you just close your eyes, your saddle’s grab your saddle’s cantel and hope the dear Lord will keep all four of your horses feet under the beast. After this finale to the trail, you can imagine how secure and inviting appeared the horizontal sweep of the beckoning Shackelford House terrace, its waving occupants.

Well, to tell you the truth I hate to correct them, but I might as well try to explain the situation. I’ve had the nickname Si for a long time among my associates. I guess some of you will remember the comic strip SI PERKINS; he had a mule named Maud, well, Dr. Katherine Oettinger and Mrs. Mary S. Van Brederode of Washington ventured out on the trail ride Sunday for the first time. They joined the large assemblage of riders who left Double Gates at noon to ride to Montpelier via the Lee Payne residence near Woodville where refreshments were served. The just right day, sunny and crisp, was embellished with the aroma of apple blossoms, lilacs, dogwood and redbud, to make a perfect setting for a leisurely ride. what would be more fitting than the name Si for a hayseed like the comic strip, Si. If you will notice the heading, the large S is in front of the i and the ‘ez’, making it SI SEZ. Over a long period, some have quoted me as Si sez this and Si sez that; some thought my sayings ridiculous, some with a little touch of wisdom. For that reason, I decided to share some of my thoughts with you. So, Si sezHave you ever ridden along the road and wondered how many of the cans of beer your tax dollars bought? I am not opposed to welfare per se, but, does welfare provide beer and hard liquor for the people on its rolls? Just wondered. I like eggs. I like them with ham, grits and red-eye gravy. I just love them with link sausage, highly seasoned. I’ll tell you a, little secret—I do not like them splattered on my windshield when. I’m driving about fifty-five miles per.

I think the nut factory is working overtime. Right, friends? And I just love spring. I love the whole year, for that matter, but spring just seems to revitalize all of nature. The four seasons are sometimes thought of as representing life, spring as resurrection and childhood. Do the good die young? If I have to go, I can think of no better time than spring. There will be other springs to some of us, some “will walk ; again through drifts of apple snow”, and to others “spring will call, and we shall never know”. If this were our last snrine would you be ready for that place ‘where spring remains forever with the roses’? I hope so. Personals from Sperryvilleand Vicinity Mrs. B. M.
