According to investigating officer W. A. Buntin, John Robert Kletter of McLean operating a 70 Pontiac and Ruth Ann Eastham of Washington, Va. in a 64 Chevrolet were involved. Both vehicles were heading east on Route 211 about 4:30 p.m. when Kletter, making a right turn into Route 522, was struck in the rear by the Eastham car. Damage to the Kletter car was set at $300 and at $150 to the Eastham car. Ruth Ann Eastham was charged with following too closely.

Buntin who investigated both of the above crashes. Flint Hill Schedules Volunteers Picnic The Annual Picnic of the Flint Hill Firemen and Auxiliary will be held at the Carnival Grounds, Sunday, June 27 at 4 p.m. Demand for Electricity Soars In Local Area and Nation Will there be enough electricity available in Rappahannock County this summer for all local needs? Or will there be shortages at certain times, as was the case in many communities last year? On the basis of a nationwide survey, the Federal Power Commission warns that “some areas of the country may experience shortages as a result of inadequate installed capacity to meet forecasted summer peak loads.” Because there are many more air conditioners, television sets, electric stoves, washing machines and other appliances in use locally than there were in earlier years, the demand for electricity has been zooming. According to the Department of Commerce, the per capita requirements in the United States have been increasing five times faster than population. In the general area encompassing Rappahannock County, the amount of current needed for residential use alone went up 83 percent in five years. The rise locally was from 6,000,000 kilowatt hours a year to a pproximately 11,000,000 kilowatt hours, according to an analysis of statwide figures. Although private and public utilities throughout the country are rushing to get new generating units built to meet the rising demand for electricity, it will take a huge investment of capital and a lone period of time to meet present and future needs. Meanwhile, this summer included, there will be power cutbacks, known as brownouts, in hard-pressed areas. People will then be asked to switch off their air conditioners and other appliances. Commerical and industrial users will also be asked to cut down, as they were last summer. One company, the Consolidated Edison Company of New York, has announced that it has stopped looking for new customers. It has difficulty meeting its present commitments. The residential use of electricity varies considerably throughout the country. Compared with Rappahannock County’s estimated consumption of 7,162 kilowatt hours a year per household, the average nationally is 6,430 per household. It amounts to 5,710 in the South Atlantic States. Annual 4-H Tour Wednesday, June 30 The Annual 4-H Educational Tour will be Wednesday, June 30th. Included will be a visit to the Washington Momument, the Smithsonian Institution and Dulles International Airport. Buses will leave Washington, Virginia at 7 a.m. and expect to return around 5:30 p.m. The total cost of the tour will be $4.75. Anyone interested in going on the trip, should contact the Extension Office at 675-3619. Night Registration Hours For 2 Districts The General Registrar of Rappahannock County will be at the Castleton Fire Hall on Friday, June 18th at 7:30 p.m. to register voters of Stonewall District who are unable to register during the regular Thursday office hours. Jackson District voters will be extended the same service at the Amissville Fire Hall on Wednesday, June 23 at 7:30 p.m. Night registration hours for Piedmont and Hawthorne Districts will be announced in the near future. Unofficial registration in Rappahannock County to date stands at 2,161. The social security number of all voters is needed. Robinson RepreseVe Sets Visit Here Sat. Harvey Hutchinson, office nanager for Seventh District Congressman, J. Kenneth Robinson, will visit in Rapjahannock County Saturday, June 19, for the purpose of talking with he public. He wishes to hear comments, criticisms or problems concerning federal issues.

The utility company wishes to construct, erect and maintain a 138 KV transmission line from Riverton in Warren County to Boston in Culpeper County, extending through Rappahannock County. "Gravin' Image" Rock Group Featured In Library Musical “The Gravin’ Image,” a rock group composed entirely of Rappahannock County High School students, will head the musical pageant, a feature of the Fourth of July festivities which will be held at Rappahannock Library in Washington, Va. The aand is made up of C. G. Thornhill who plays the organ, Eddie Huff and Billy Payne with guitars and Doug Larimer on the drums. They will present some patriotic songs suitable to the occasion and follow with many popular numbers from their own repertoire. The musical pageant will begin at 2:30 p.m., Sunday, July 4.

Interest Growing In Raritan Contest Interest is growing in the “Uncle Sam” and “Miss Liberty” contest which will be held Saturday, July 3 in conjunction with the Independence Day Celebration sponsored by the Amissville Ruritan Club. A parade and speaker will precede the annual pit-cooked beef barbecue served at this time by the Ruritans. Invitation to the parade have been issued the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Daughters of the Confederacy chapters in Culpeper, and to the Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion and Boy Scout groups from various localities. Rappahannock Boy Scouts Given Battlefield Tour By H. R. Terhune The promised reward to the Boy Scouts of Rappahannock County was paid by the Amissville Ruritan Club with an all day trip to the Field of the Honor at the New Market Battlefield. Having fulfilled their assignment through the sale of United States flags, the scouts in turn were the guests of the Ruritan’s Citizenship and Patriotism Committee. In a borrowed church bus, the 17 scouts were collected at the fire house in Amissville, Flint Hill and Sperryville. Monotered by three adult committee members and a retired school bus driver, the Boy Scout slogan, “Be Prepared” was well in mind. In the mind’s eye a precautionary sign read, “Danger-Explosives” with an imaginary bill of lading identifying the cargo as 17 pieces of dynamite. It might well be added, all was well; the fuses were never really lit. At the information center an engaging young hostess and guide had the complete attention of the boys, allowing Jimmy Swindler to read aloud a soldier’s war-time letter of 1864. Curt Nichols, Jeff Foster and James Tolson were given the honor of pressing buttons which lighted the strategy moves on a battle map. Thus the boys came through with a citation and a complement identifying them as “one of the nicest groups to visit the museum.” A lunch was taken by each boy and drinks were provided on the house. It was evident allowances by parents were generous for at gas stops purchases went for everything from candy bars to bags of yellow things that only boys would eat. At the Center, sales were brisk on miniature metal muskets, mini balls, flag decals and one lad, with a certain penchant for wire puzzles, bought four. Another boy had a fine bubble gum record going -- eleven spheres incased one after the other within the original. To the uninitiated it was a completely intriguing performance as the delicate art proceeded until the faithful 13th when the the entire mess burst ignominiously over the actor’s nose, mouth and chin. The effect of this educational tour will be further noted in the individual homes of the boys represented by everyone, both old and young returning feeling satisfied but also like Saturday night after a heavy week. One of these charming young ladies will reign as queen of the Washington carnival following a coronation ceremony scheduled for tomorrow night (Friday). Competing for the title are Deborah Smoot, Sarah Clark, Nola Harper, Ella Mae Harper, Cil Davis and Judy Alther. The winning contestant will act as Honorary Fire Chief for Washington Fire Company and Rappahannock Rescue Squad for the coming year. The annual carnival got under way last night and continues through Saturday night when the awarding of prizes will climax festivities. Washington's Annual Carnival In Progress; Parade Tonight Efforts of the Washington Fire Department and Rappahannock Rescue Squad have been hampered by inclement weather as these volunteer groups prepared for and opened the annual fund raising carnival at Washington, Va. last night. However, the group continues with plans as a promise of better conditions is in sight. A large parade is scheduled for tonight (Thursday) as entries Interested In Holiday Parade? A Fourth of July parade sponsored by the Rappahannock Historical Society is scheduled to follow the Independence Day celebration in Washington, Va. on July 4 at Rappahannock Library, provided enough interest is shown in this activity. Tentative plans are for the parade to be staged at the grounds of the old elementary school and proceed from there at 6 p.m. The parade committee wishes to hear from anyone who has old or antique items such as spinning wheels and old-time clothing which can be used in making floats and costumes. Prizes for floats will be given. If interested or if you have any items which you think may be used, please contact Ian Pryde at 987-822L James F.

Ballots Due in Wool Referendum Rappahannock County Wool producers, who are eligible to vote in the market promotion program but haven’t yet cast their ballots are urged to do so before the June 18 deadline by H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committee. An eligible voter is one who has owned sheep 6 months of age or older for at least 30 consecutive days during 1970. Ballots may be cast by mailing them to the County ASCS Office or by voting at the county office. The ASCS Committee Chairman emphasized that the referendum will not affect the wool payment itself, which has been extended by law through 1973. The voting will determine whether growers will finance wool and lamb market-promotion activities through deductions from the wool payments they receive through the next three years. Deductions under the new agreement would be up to l-‘/2 (Continued on Page 2) A group of Boy Scouts of Rappahannock County with leaders, members of Amissville Ruritan Club, took a tour and if outing Tuesday at the New Market Battlefiekl Museum.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Va. Telephone: WASHINGTON 675-3349 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Ai Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the P. O. at Washington, Va. Subscriptions (in adnnte) $3.00 in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.50 East coast; $4.00 mid-west; $4.50 West. a LETTERS to EDITOR Flint Hill, Va. June 14,1971 Madam Editor: Not too many years ago it could be said that this county had four chief assets: its people, its farms, its orchards, and its unparalleled natural beauty. Now the situation is changed and is changing more rapidly with each passing day. The farms and orchards are not so numerous or productive as they j once were. The people find it difficult or impossible to make a living from the land so they move away hoping to find a better life elsewhere. Only the land remains unchanged and unspoiled. We can ill afford to allow the desecration of the one thing that has taken nature countless ceng tunes to create. We are fold by some, however, that one little two hundred foot wide barren slash through the heart of Rap. pahannock County would be hardly noticeable! The proponents call this “progress” or “an anticipation of future needs”. Notably none of those who ascribes to such half-witted logic are residents of this county and that, incidentally, is another very definite asset. The ultimate destruction of our way of life and of our system of government will come, not from forces without, but from apathy within. Our government is, by design, nothing more than a servant whose function is to respond to the wishes "of the majority for the common good. When the people become too busy or disinterested to speak out and make their desires known, then the entire democratic form of government will surely collapse. Tomorrow, Friday, June 18 at 9 a.m., a portion of our local government, the Board of Zoning Appeals, will hold a public hearing to consider certain “Special use permits” one of which is the application by Potomac Edison to construct the now infamous power line. The members of the board are interested in and will be -responsive to public opinion. I _ strongly urge every resident of Rappahannock County to attend. Charles B.

Library Lines BOOKS The Greening of America, by Charles A. Reich - “There is a revolution coming. It will not be like revolutions of the past. It will originate with the individual and with culture, and it will change the political structure only as its final act. It will not require violence to succeed, and it cannot be successfully resisted by violence. This is the revolution of the new generation.” Inspector's Holiday, by Richard Lockridge - An Inspector Heimrich mystery. High in the Thin Cold Air, by Sir Edmund Hillary and Desmond Doig - The story of the Himalayan Expedition led by Sir Edmund Hillary with a two-part mission: (1) to find the Abominable Snowman and (2) to discover how ordinary men can survive a winter at dizzying altitudes. Nikos Kazantzakis, by Helen Kazantzakis - A biography of a literary giant written by his wife, herself a distinguished writer. “For all those who have read the work of Kazantzakis this book is essential reading. But it goes far beyond that; it is a literary masterpiece in its own right and one of the most powerful evocations of a great love ever written.” Crisis in the Classroom, by Charles E. Silberman - Subtitled “The. Jlemaking of American Education,” this book phopostes sweeping changes in our schools. “The many who admired “Crisis in Black and White” (Silberman’s award-winning best seller) will not be surprised to learn that Mr. Silberman’s new book is also highly controversial, for he is not given to bland exposition or vague pieties.” The New York Times calls Crisis in the Classroom “Profoundly worthwhile ... a book that absolutely must be read.” It has already been named one of the twelve best books of the year by the New York Times Book Review.

Hunting, Fishing Licenses On Sale New 1971-72 hunting and fishing icenses are now being distributed o some 375 Commission of Game ind Inland Fisheries license igencies throughout Virginia, •eports Fiscal Division Chief Sam 3utt. The new hunting and fishing icenses have been received at the iffice of E. M. Jones, Clerk of Rappahannock County where they ire now on sale. “We like to encourage sportsmen to buy their new icenses before their old ones expire to avoid being caught short >n the stream bank somewhere,” Putt said, “but at the same time ve caution license purchasers to ye sure they get the new license ind not a duplicate of the one in heir pocket which expires June JO.” Each year a few em)arrassing incidents occur where mglers buy “new” licenses in good faith only to discover later vhen being checked by a Game Warden that their “new” license lad expired along with their old >ne. Likewise, the 1971-72 licenses ire not valid until July 1 even hough they may be purchased a :ouple of weeks ahead of that late. Three day licenses are the inly type that can span the fiscal /ear changeover. Each year some 175.000 Virginians purchase resident licenses to fish and 110.000 purchase resident hunting licenses. Thses license sales provide most of the revenue for the operations of the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries when coupled with some federal funds and samll amounts from the sale of timber and other products from Commission lands. These funds are used to finance law enforcement work, fish stocking, fish and game research, fish and wildlift management work plus information and education efforts “Each year many persons in nocently let the deadline foi buying new fishing licenses slip u{ on them and get caught on streair of lake with a license expired by e few days,” says Law Enfrocemeni Chief John McLaughlin. Arresi records for the month of July shov this to be one of the most common violations. Hunters don’t have a: much trouble since the license ii this case is expiring betweei seasons rather than in mid season. New Eyes For The Needy When you’re six years old, the world can be a wonderful place-if you can see it. Tommy couldn’t. He lived in a world of blurred images. School is tough enough when you’re six. But it’s even worse when your friends are learning to read, and you can’t keep up. To Tommy, letters were merely blurs; so were baseballs and faces. Because Tommy’s father had long been out of work, glasses were simply out of the question - until this year. The boy’s glasses were paid for by a volunteer organization hundreds of miles away, called New Eyes for the Needy, Inc., of Short Hills, New Jersey. New Eyes, as it is familiarly known, has earned the reputation of being one of the most effective sight-saving charities in the world. It has helped many thousands of needy people obtain glasses - here and abroad - and it has never asked for a cent in donations. Since its inception, almost 40 years ago, New Eyes has asked only for used eyeglasses and precious metal articles such as old watches, jewelry (real, costume and antique), good or damaged silver and dentures. The eyeglasses and glittering clutter are spent to New Eyes for the Needy, Inc., Short Hills, New Jersey 07078. Thousands of packages from all over the United States arrive in the neat stucco headquarters every year. There, volunteers, mostly housewives, sort out the glasses, separating those in plastic frames from those in metal frames. Many of the 250 workers have learned to operate complex optical grading and testing equipment. They help fill specific orders from missions and hospitals in foreign countries where plastic framed glasses and sunglasses are sent. The metal framed glasses have their uses, too. Through refining, they yield precious metals that are sold, along with the jewelry, to finance New Eyes funds in over 100 hospitals and health agencies throughout the United States. The money in these funds buys glasses for people who have nowhere else to tum. In addition to these funds, arrangements have also been made in 48 states through health and welfare agencies whereby New Eyes purchases glasses foi , carefully screened persons, tc whom no other private or public funds are available. Last year 8,000 people wen helped under this program Tommy was one of them. 1 But, as public response has 1 grown throughout the years, sc 1 has the volume of requests ‘ Therefore, New Eyes needs mon discarded jewelry and eyeglasses Read The Want Ais, It Pays!

Book by Lambert Offered Public Shenandoah National P&fk has announced that a new book on early events in the area of Shenandoah National Park has been published. The book “Herbert Hoover’s Hideaway,” by Darwin Lambert, is ithe story of a presidential retreat and the many behind-the-scenes happenings of one of America’s leaders during one of the world’s most trying periods. The book was brought to life by the author through dozens of interviews with people who accompanied the Hoovers to the camp. It contains 157 pages and 72 historic photographs that portray both the political and human history that surrounded Hoover’s retreat and fishing camp on the Rapidan River. The author, Darwin Lambert, is an authority on Shenandoah National Park, having at one time worked in the area for the National Park Service. He has traveled extensively and written Virginia Is Big Among Nation’s Apple Growing States Virginia is BIG among apple 1 'rowing states. With an annual 1 ncome exceeding $40 million for ■ resh and processed fruit, the Old ! Dominion ranks fifth behind ' Washington, New York, Michigan ind California. "There is little doubt that the irst orchards started in what is low the United States were lurtured in what is now Virginia,” ieclared Fred Dreiling, a Virginia rech associate professor of lorticulture. “Early settlers sought out irime sites to establish apple irchards featuring scions of referred European varieties grafted onto native crabapple stocks," he added. “Today some 90 per cent of Virginia’s apples are grown in nountain areas where conditions avor quality. “Planted on slopes down which rosty masses of air flow like vater, trees are spared from frost lamage. Their roots pick up leeded minerals from the somewhat heavy, nutrient-rich dinging soils of highland regions, rool nights and warm days help in coloring the fruit,” Dreiling explained. Orchard men give credit for the quality level of Virginia apples to deal growing conditions, and to he research and mechanical nnovations science has brought to he enterprise. Dreiling, an extension specialist n pome fruit, described some of he advances in orcharding echniques during the past 20 /ears. “A scant 20 years ago, Virginia counted over 1,500 orchards, roday’s orchards number about 100. Orchard size and yields per icre rose alpiost in unison. Then r’ields averaged 175 bushels per icre. Now, yields of over 400 pushels per acre are common,” Dreiling noted. Improved cultural practices nclude spraying chemical fornulas in the right amounts at the ight time to control damage by nsects, weeds and plant diseases. “A thinner spray, applied about :wo weeks after bloom, destroys he weaker buds and blossoms and leaves the trees to develop fruit of bigger size and better quality,” Dreiling explained. Semi-dwarf trees of 14 to 16 foot heights permit easier care and harvest of Virginia orchards. Harvesting has undergone changes in recent years,” Dreiling added. “Apple picking has been refined to prevent bruising the fruit. Apple handling and the both fiction and non-fiction that has been published nationally. In addition to books and articles, he has produced color-sound motion pictures on nature and travel themes. Since 1964, Mr. Lambert and his wife have lived in a preCivil War log house adjacent to the boundary of Shenandoah National Park. The book is published by the Shenandoah Natural History Association in cooperation with the National Park Service, U. S. Department of the Interior. It is available to both paperback and hardback at $1.75 and $3.75 respectively. It may be purchased at Shenandoah National Park Headquarters and the visitor centers along Skyline Drive and by mail from the Shenandoah Natural History Association, Box 89, Route 4, Luray, Virginia 22835.

Dreiling explained, ‘‘Orcharding is big business. To meet competition, growers musi take advantage of every advancement in orcharding techniques Orchards are getting bigger. Mechanization is essential. Even (hough fruit growers are already using $6,000-S7,000 .. air-blast sprayers, $15,000-520,000 topperhedger-pruners and $6500 fork-lift tractors, they are looking for still further developments to facilitate their operations. “Modern machinery and wise management will keep or better Virginia’s rank among apple producing states,” Dreiling concluded. Highway Dept. Sets Curbs on Burning New specifications setting further curbs on open burning and aimed at salvaging usable timber at construction sites have been ordered into effect by the Virginia Department of Highways for future road-building projects. W. S. Scott, the department’s construction engineer, said today the changes will become standard provisions in all highway construction contracts awarded by the state. The revisions announced today encourage the processing of brush, tree limbs, root mat and other unmerchantable wood into chips which can be used as mulch if a contractor wishes, along with the use of root mat and brush for silt traps and erosion control. The following are among the revised specifications governing disposal of combustible cleared and grubbed material: -All merchantable trees are to be cut into saw log or pulp wood lenghts and disposed of by means other than burning. -The burning of stumps, unmerchantable wood and other combustible materials is to be done only in a manner which will produce no smoke or fly ash nuisance. -Burning is to be done on the highway right-of-way at the greatest distance practicable from dwellings, highways and airports. -Burning may be performed only when there is no wind or when the wind direction is away from any built-up area, and it may not be initiated when atmospheric conditions are such that smoke will create a hazard to the motoring public or to airport operations. -In localities where local ordinances or other regulations prohibit open burning, or elsewhere is a contractor chooses, brush, limbs, root Vnat and other unmerchantable wdod^ may be processed into chips arid stock piled for use as mulch for seeded area -Brush, limbs and root mat also may be placed along the outer edges of fill slopes and matted for erosion control in some instances Stumps and other combustible material may be buried where designated on construction plans in median areas and borrow and waste pits, or disposed of by burning in an approved high temperature pit incinerator. Scott said that disposal of cleared and grubbed material under the new provision will not be measured for separate payment, but will be considered incidental to the clearing and grubbing costs However, he explained, the Highway Department will pay for acceptable wood chips processed for mulching, if a contractor chooses to follow that method of disposal. Mulch acceptably applied will be paid for on the basis for the unit price bid for mulch on the specific project. <^> HEADQUARTERS for Orchard Chemicals We maintain complete inventories end will deliver to your farm.

Farm Loan Program 1 Is Liberalized ‘ Drying and storage facilities for, j grains, soybeans, and other storable crops are as necessary j for many modern farms as specialized planting and har- , vesting equipment. Recent | changes in the loan program for , farm storage and drying equipment have been announced. A lower loan interest rate and an increase in the maximum loan amount are among the changes, as well as liberalization of other provisions. H. S. Barksdale said many farmers will be using the new setaside farm programs to tailor crop production to meet market demand. “Producers are changing their crop planning from the patterns they have been locked into for so many years under restrictive farm programs. The jjew set-aside erograiji lets_them concentrate their production, if they choose, on crops they can grow most efficiently.” Modern on-farm and commercial storage and handling facilities are needed which will promote efficient marketing and provide for an orderly flow of goods from producer to consumer. Through use of both on-farm and commercial storage, farmers are better able to avoid a harvesttime glut, make more effective use of transportation facilities, and spread their marketing over a longer period. Under the farm storage and drying equipment loan program, eligible farmers can obtain Commodity Credit Corporation loans through their local Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (ASCS) Office to buy or build on-farm storage and drying facilities and to buy essential operating equipment. Loans can be made for storage needs based on two-year production of a producer’s crop which are eligible for pricesupport. In Rappahannock County these may include barley, oats, grain sorghum, corn, rye, soybeans, and wheat.

The loan rate had been 7-Vi >ercent. It was possible to lower he interest rate at this time lecause of recent lowering of the sorrowing cost of money to the :cc. -Increasing the maximum loan or outstanding aggregate balance from $25,000 to $35,000. --Removing the $5,000 loan limit on drying equipment and permitting such loans for 85 percent of the net cost up to $35,000. --Removing restrictions or various items of equipmenl essential to the practical operation of the storage or drying unit. -Removing restrictions on costs of foundations and electrical wiring in the loans. These program changes will no only help farmers install needec on-farm storage but also will hel{ modernize facilities to keep uj with new harvesting, conditioning and storage techniques. H. L.

Phone 635-2176 Our Wants And Needs Rev. U. S. Brokenburr Our Wants and Needs are as old as the hills. Mankind started wanting and needing when he became estranged from his Maker. However, today our society seems as if it does not know what it wants or what it needs. Our warns are motivated by our passions and senses, which are found to be misleading in many instances. This can be easily seen in thousands of young and old people gathering together to show their loyalty to a dream world, where no one works, no one bathes, and where citizens in the greatest government in the world have to ask a loofer, can they go to work? Many of their wants are found in being turned on with some form of narcotic. God supplied our forefathers their needs - and He is still in business in the hearts and minds of those who are willing to give up their search for peace and justice that comes from the satisfying of their senses and passions and seek the Prince of Peace and Justice, who said, “The Kingdom of God is neither here nor there, but within you.” Waiting to be acknowledged, once we realize God’s presence -- our needs will be satisfied. Here are a few examples of thousands of people in our today’s society who get what they want and not what they need - A low income family will pinch pennies to purchase a color T.V. to see a man who brings mostly bad news, when the same news can be heard over a radio. There are others who will hire a taxi cab to ride five or six blocks to pick up their welfare check when they could walk it, or bus it. Many parents want their children to become a Booker T. Washington or Washington Carver when they have only inherited loud mouth for singing hymns. There are some who spend a lifetime gathering gold, silver and house, satisfying their wants but not their needs. God’s Holy Word that has not failed mankind yet tells us in The Acts of the Apostles - 8th Ch., 27th thru 30th vs., about an Ethiopian who had all that he wanted - power, silver and gold. God’s word tells us that while the Ethiopian rode in his chariot he, by chance, started reading the Holy Word of God, but he did not understand it, and while he was in a confused state of mind, God’s apostle, Phillip, happened on the scene, and asked the Ethiopian if he understood what he was reading. He said, “No, unless some man show me.” Then Phillip explained to the Ethiopian the difference between what he wanted and what he needed. Phillip’s explanation to the Ethiopian showed that what he needed was within, and as soon as his belief was strengthened, he went away happy. Happiness will be ours too when we leave off our wants and take care of our needs through belief in God, ourselves and what our country stands for. Substandard Tires Illegally Sold Governor Linwood Holton has been notified by the U. S. Department of Transportation that relatively inexpensive and inferior tires, designed for farm use only and not meeting federal standards for passenger car use, are being sold illegally for road use, John T. Hanna, Director of the Virginia Highway Safety Division, announced today Hanna said that such tires are required to be branded with the phrase “Unsafe for Highway use” and tagged with two labels indicating that under a federal regulation sale for passenger car use subjects the seller to a civil penalty up to $1,000 for each tire sold. In addition, manufacturers are required to report periodically to the Department of Transportation the number of such tires sold and the names of the dealers or distributors purchasing them. Removal of the labels before sale, hanna continued, also calls for a civil penalty up to $1,000. He said further that unscrupulous dealers are not only removing the tags but buffing off the brands and selling the tires to unsuspecting purchasers and that the public, in some cases, has contributed to this adverse situation by pur chasing these inferior tires, the labels and brands on which have Social News Mrs. Ruby Rutherford an< family of Charles Town, W.

Public Information Office Social Security Notes Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, Manager of the Winchester Social Security Office, in a statement released today, emphasized the need and importance of people knowing their rights under the social security program. Mrs. Crumpton stated, “Many people still think of social security as a retirement insurance program only.” She stressed the need of people being more aware of the disability features of social security. Thousands of dollars in benefits are being lost by workers who assume their illness or condition is not severe enough to qualify for disability benefits. Many of these disabled workers have listened to the advice of well-meaning relatives and friends and have not contacted their local social security office. She cautioned that the proper source of information on social security matters is your local office. Many people have been pleasantly surprised to find | out they could qualify for benefits. Mrs. Crumpton reviewed the basic requirements for disability benefits. An individual must be so severely disabled he cannot do substantial work and his disabling condition must be expected to last at least 12 months. In addition, the disabled individual must have 1 worked under social security in 1 five out of the ten years immediately preceding his • disability. Anyone disabled before age 31 needs only to have worked one-half the time between age 21 and the time he became disabled. r A worker disabled before age 24 ( may qualify for benefits, with as . little as 1V2 years of work. Mrs. Crumpton suggested, if you think you can qualify for these benefits, contact your local social security office and we will discuss the possibilities and assist you in the filing of all necessary forms. i Your local office is located at 20 i S. Cameron St., Winchester. Hours are from 8:45 a.m. to 5:00 i p.m., Monday through Friday. The telephone number is 667-1511. “We offer Teleservice,” she added. “By calling us first, often we can complete forms via telephone and send them for signature.” j CHAIN SAW OWNERS Special Prices June 15th - June 30th BARS FOR HOMELITE 16 inch Reg. $19.00 .

Bentonville, Virginia Phone 635-9926 • David J. Poe, District Conservationist, examines a pond for algae which is a low type of plant life that forms a thick blanket on the bottom of a pond and interferes with fish feeding and production. Masses of the algae break loose and float to the surface of the pond forming a scum that makes fishing difficult. The Soil Conservation Service may recommend Israeli Carp to control the filamentous type algae, both on the pond bottom where it grows and the floating masses by eating it. Algae can also be controlled by the use of chemicals used in property prescribed amounts. Spiders Are Mostly Beneficial to Man Rather Than Harmful A number of different spiders seen in and around Virginia homes are most likely killed on sight because many people simply dislike spiders whether they are inside or out. “The black widow spider is presently the most dangerous or poisonous spider seen in Virginia. Another venomous spider, the brown recluse, has been reported in North Carolina and in Kentucky, but not Virginia. Both the widow and therecluse seek dark, undisturbed areas such as cellers, garages, woodpiles and trash heaps,” reported William H. Robinson, a Virginia Tech assistant professor of entomology and an extension specialist in household insects. “Spiders are beneficial and mostly harmless to man. Most of them feed on insects, house flies, mosquitos, moths, cockroaches, various mites and other spiders. Some build intricate webs to trap their prey. Others simply rove in search of food,” the extension specialist reported. Robinson explained, ‘‘They reproduce by laying eggs. Usually about 100 eggs are laid in a whitish-gray egg sac made from the same material as that in webs. It is noted not all spider species make webs. But they all produce the silky substance from which webs are made. The egg sacs are either carried by the female or Stored in the web.” Robinson explained, the eggs hatch in about 21 days and the young spiders become adults in about a year. “Depending upon the specie, spiders overwinter as eggs, young spiders or adults.” Male and female spiders live separately and seldom get together except to mate. The males are usually smaller than the females and are often of a different color marking. According to Robinson, spiders can become so numerous in the house they can be a nuisance or a pest. In most cases, they are so few in number they go undetected. “If spiders are a nuisance, they and their egg sacs can be removed with a vaccum cleaner and a through cleanup of the premises,” advised Robinson. Should the vaccum cleaner method of removing spider hordes fail, chemical control is suggested. Stated Robinson, “Aerosol sprays of dichlorvos, or pyrethrins are effective in spider ‘krtfock-down’ treatments. Dichlorvos strips give good control for several months in rooms with little ventilation. Residual applications of chlordane or lindane will' give control at window sills and doorways where spiders might enter the house. “Chemical treatments outdoors around the house are not recommended. Spiders are an important part of the natural population. To eliminate them could permit the multiplication of less desirable insects,” cautioned Robinson. Advised the entomologist, “Read the label on each pesticide container before each use. Follow instructions to the letter. Heed all cautions and warnings and note precautions concerning residues.” Upward Trend in Traffic Deaths “On April 9 of this year, Virginia’s traffic deaths ran 40 less than those for the same period of 1970. On May 14, they were five over,” Colonel H. W. Burgess, Superintendent of State Police, reported today. Colonel Burgess said the year Next Sunday, June 20, is Father’s Day. It is a day set apart Lo pay honor to our fathers. As with mothers, some might not deserve too much honor; but let us honor them anyway. Some of us can only honor them in memory. Since some of us cannot claim Ihe title, father, let us consider man. In Wordsworth’s Ode of Immortality he states; “The child is father of the man.” In that sense we can all be fathers, how many of us are satisfied with the manchild into which we have grown? In Genesis 1:27 we find this statement; “So God created man in His own image, male and female he created him.” Later He divided the sexes, but He seems to have left a small portion of each sex in the other. There is a built-in need for the other. For ages there has been a certain rivalry between the sexes, one contends that the male is superior, while the ladies (and rightly so) contend they are. But why this contention, each is part of a whole. Longfellow expresses his views this way: “As unto the bow the cord is, So unto the man is woman, Though she draws him, yet she follows; Useless each without the other.” Some say that man is a polygamous animal, a carry-over from primitive times, when the strongest male in the tribe took over the whole tribe of women. Man, that is some, have grown started badly when January saw 92 deaths to top the preceding January’s toll of 84. However, a good reduction was achieved in February when they dropped from 103 to 86 and another in March when they were down from 89 to 81. They started upward again and April ended with 93 to compare badly with the 86 of the preceding April. The upward trend has continued into May. With good weather here, Colonel Burgess said that heavier traffic volumes could be expected and that these can be reflected In the usual high-death summer weekends. The coming Memorial Day holiday, he noted, will be a three-day one. Mileage for the year, he said, is up 3.1 percent. “Nationally, deaths are down,” Colonel Burgess observed, “and it will indeed be a tragedy for Virginia to lose the high standing she achieved when only nine of the 50 states ended 1970 with a lower mileage death rate than ours. A far greater tragedy lies in the increase in human lives unnecessarily lost on our streets and highways,” he concluded.

King Solomon seems to have run into a problem about some things in his day. He says; “There are three things that are too wonderful for me, yes, there are four things I don’t know; the way of an eagle in its flight, the way of a serpent l on a rock, the way of a ship in the midst of the sea, and the way of a MAN with a WOMAN.” And there is the older MAN who falls in love with a young girl.
