As of July 1, 1984, “farmers will be required to carry workers corap only if they regularly employ more than two full-time employees,” Delegate William T. Wilson, sponsor of the measure, said. The new law clean up conftision that often arose under the previous law, which stated that farmers had to carry workers comp if they’d developed a payroll of $15,000 or more during the previous year, and if at least two employees were “full-time.” For more explanation, see Virginia Farm Burma New, May edition. • Tax Help Call Away For those still laboring over Federal income tax, assistance is available year-round, the IRS in Richmond reports. Rappahannock residents can call the IRS toll-free number, 1-800-424-1040, Monday through Friday, from 8:15 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Individuals calling about tax accounts and notices or other correspondence are asked to have a copy of the notice and their social security number available. • Propane Users Beware The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Robertshaw Controls Company want users to replace certain old liquid propane gas water-heating systems—and they’re willing to pay $160 to help consumers do it. The systems, known as the Unitrol A-l series, due to their age, may have Amity safety control devices. These controls can ultimately wear out and have been linked to explosions and fires in which there have been deaths, personal injuries and property damage. The safety controls were manufactured between 1946 and 1966, and last distributed in 1960. Fewer than 1,000 are believed to remain in service. The Unitrol A-l series was produced in several styles, and may carry the name "Unitrol,” Robertshaw-Grayson,” or “Rudd.” Consumers who have questions can call Robertshaw Control Company in Richmond at (804) 281-0774, or contact their local LP gas distributor. • Short Story “Super” Susan Weinberg, daughter of Robert and Wendy Weinberg of Slate Mills, recently won the 1964 Antietam Review Literary Award for her short story, “Super-8.” Weinberg, 24, is a 1962 graduate of Boston University, and currently is an MFA candidate at Cornell. Weinberg received $200 for "Super-8,” about teenagers dealing with a tragedy while filming an amateur mov ie. The story appears in the 1984 Antietam Review, an annual literary journal. • More Marked Cars Coming Virginia will increase the number of marked police cars on its highways, the Virginia State Police report. It is believed the increase in blue and gray cars will deter violations by improving visibility and heightening public awareness. Unmarked cars still will be part of the fleet, state police noted. The current percent distribution of marked cars to unmarked can is 50-60, and may not change for several yean. • Gypsy Moth Here The gypsy moth invasion from the Northeastern states in spreading into Northern Virginia, according to a report from 7th District Rep. J. Kenneth Robinson. The gypsy moth is moving onto the Blue Ridge and spreading out. Rappahannock is listed among the counties that will be touched. Gypsy moths are caterpillars that gorge themselves from May through early July. In the Northeast, gypsy moths defoliated hundreds of thousands of acres of forest. A single defoliation can kill some softwoods, and two or more defoliations can kill many types of hardwoods. Any serious infestation on private property should be reported to the county extension agent, who can discuss ways to control the past, the report suggests. • C.B.90 C. B. Johnson of Woodville turned 90 on May 25. The family celebrated with an open house-birthday party event to which people came from all over Rappahannock County and elsewhere. The Johnson family has lived in Woodville nearly 250 years, and almost all were spent living on Red Oak Mountain.

Seniors Boost Morale In Beirut Senior citizens of the Retired Senior Citizens Volunteer Program (RSVP) in Washington expected nothing in return when they sent handmade greeting cards last March to servicemen on board a destroyer in Beirut Harbor. What they received, however, was a personal letter of thanks from the ship’s commanding officer and several gifts, each a token of the crew’s appreciation. The senior citizens had been encouraged by Jeaide McNear, volunteer coordinator for RSVP, tomake the greeting cards. Whenthey did, each added his or her own personal touch. Some wrote notes or prayers; others sketched designs or drawings. The cards were mailed just before Easter. “Some of the cards and personal notes were really dear,” McNear offered. “(This type of thing) helps them get outside of themselves, to think of others.” The idea was to let servicemen in Beirut know that others were thinking of them—that they had not been forgotten. According to McNear and Carolyn Seabed, director of RSVP for Planning District 9, sending greeting cards was an extentkui of “Operation Shoestring,” begun last year by Bill and Nancy Lancaster of Boston. Rappahannock New* PbotVJoa BANNER FLOWN IN BEIRUT was among “thank you” items Rappahannock senior citizens received in April. The Lancaster’s son, Billy Jr., was overseas in the Navy serving duty on the USS Independence. He described life at sea, explaining that shipmates often saw no one but military personnel for months. The Lancasters developed Operation Shoestring and responded in a big Harris Hollow Heats Up Bond Passes By JON HEDDLESTON M|H>—W«w SfKWHUr An amended bond for the proposed adult home to be — buOt hr Harris Hdfiew passed on Hay 29 despite public protest from several Harris Hollow residents. Hie Industrial Development Authority (IDA) of the Town of Front Royal and the County of Warren unanimously approved two series of industrial development bonds. Valued at $2.5 million each, the bond certificates boost by $5 million the fluids to assist Rappahannock Group Home Partnership “in acquiring, constructing and equipping a 70-bed elderly care facility and a 50-unit elderly residential facility” on the site of the former sld lodge. The original bond application, for a mental health care facility, passed about a year ago without opposition. An amendment to that application was made by Sam Snead, principal in the group-home venture, after the decision was made to build a home for the elderly instead. Before making its decision, the seven-person IDA panel heard 55 minutes of testimony Rappahannock residents or former residents who attended the hearing. Eleven people spoke in opposition to the proposed facility; six spoke in support. Before making its ded aion, IDA chairman Allan Nichols explained the role of the IDA board. band Should be passed^ he said. "We don’t address4 the relative merits of a project. (Our ftinction is) solely to determine if the application is in accordance.” Nichols told the 40 or so people who attended the hearing that he was surprised and impressed by the turnout. He explained again, however, that residents’ concerns about the proposed facility were not in the realm of IDA bond statutes, but the jurisdiction of other authorities such as town supervisors and the water control board. Opponents of the proposed adult home said that they had drafted petitions, garnered more than 300 signatures, and sent them to Governor Robb and the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors. “We have good reason to believe the supervisors of Rappahannock are going to reconsider (the proposed group home) very seriously,” Gene Leggett of Harris Hollow said. “I myself am not throwing in the towel until the end of the 15th round,” John Clark, Jr., who has become the informal leader of those opposed to the project, added. Drug Traffickers Guilty Bv JON HEDDLESTON fawahuaock Nam SUIT Writer Eight members of a Rappahannock-based drug ring that supplied three counties with marijuana, cocaine and hashish between 1973 and July 1979 have come to terms with the law. Three of the eight men entered plea agreements last Wednesday, May 23, one day before their jury trial was to begin. Five others also have entered guilty pleas to date. According to Ken Melson, assistant U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District, Robert Earl Martin, Jr., 30, of Huntly faces the stiffist penalty: a possible 90-year prison term and $296,000 fine. Martin pleaded guilty to 12 of 13 charges, among them: conspiracy to possess marijuana, hashish and cocaine; possessing marijuana and cocaine with intent to distribute; and travel act violations. Daniel Lee McCarty, 30, of Front Royal pleaded guilty to conspiracy topossess and distribute marijuana and hashish. McCarty could get five years. Richard David Serreno, 30, of Huntly pleaded guilty to two charges: conspiracy to possess and distribute marijuana, cocaine and hashish, and interstate travel act violations. Serreno could serve up to 20 years for the crimes. Lindsay Francis Dodson, 30, of Front Royal pleaded guilty last month to conspiracy to possess and distribute marijuana, a crime that could get them five years. James Summerville Dawson III, 45, part owner of Sommerbeth Farm in Huntly, pleaded guilty to two misdemeanors: possession of cocaine, LSD and marijuana and possession of controlled'substances in association with others.

On ^smaller scale, the purpose of the RSVP mission was tkesame. “(Senior citizens) in Rappahannock, Culpeper and Madison sent some 90 letters,” Szabad said. “They ware placed on the walls in the ship’s dining room. It was a very big thing for (the servicemen). There’s always a lot of enthusiasm when something like this happen.” According to Larry Loggins, Commanding Officer of the USS Claude V. Ricketts, the guided missile destroyer to which the cards and letters were sent, the Rappahannock News Photo/Jon Heddleslon RAINED IN. Memorial Day services were moved to Trinity Church last Monday due to intermittent rain. Memorial Day Services Not Dropped By Downpour Memorial Day services scheduled for outdoors last Monday weren’t dropped despite intermittent rain that fell during the holiday weekend. Reverend Jennings Hobson had announced a “serious rain” game plan prior to the event. Originally scheduled to take place in Woodville at St. Paul’s Cemetepr, the Memorial Day service was moved one-half hour before its start-time to Trinity Church in Washington. Nearly 40 people attended the service, which began at 12:15. In lieu of a former flag-raising ceremony, Colonel Dieter Knuepfer, dressed in full uniform, positioned the flag apppropriately during the closing hymn, “My Country TisofThee.” Baccalaureate Sunday Rappahannock County High School’s 34th annual baccalaureate service will take place this Sunday, June 3, at 7:30 p.m. in the high school auditorium. Reverend Merlin Shorb, minister of Rappahannock County’s Methodist Churches, will give the baccalaureate address. Reverend Jennings Hobson, of the Trinity Church in Washington, will give the invocation and benediction. senior citizen’s effort boosted morale at a time when a lift was sorely needed. “...As crew members of this forward deployed war ship we sometimes feel that no one cares,” Commander Loggins wrote. “All we hear are the arguments in Congress and the newspapers always question our presence here in Beirut.... “This time over here has been pretty hard for all of us as the long days, weeks and months spent off the beach, all the fighting, mail being very slow from home combine to make morale low.... “But when we receive (Continued on Page 14) BZA Discusses Permits, Growth By T. REYNOLDS ..... Iwnt—tHlmlndi) WtUt In a full and lengthy - Meting bat Wednesday; the Board of Zoning Appeals denied one request, granted four others, requested advice from the Planning Commission on a sixth, lectured one applicant on neighborly behavior and heard an unscheduled appeal from Roger and Diane Kidwell. An eighth request, that of Russell A. Langelle for a variance to build on his property near Rock Mills, was dismissed as unnecessary after the board examined his plans. The one denial applied to the request of A. Burke Hertz to build an apartment for a custodian over an existing outbuilding on his property. Board members struggled with the language of the regulations in what they saw as a conflict between the letter and the spirit of the law. The Planning Commission had recommended that the board not approve the Hertz request, saying that the proposed addition was not in compliance with the density called for by the general plan for that area, at Massie’s Corner not far from Washington. The apartment planned, explained Hertz, would be 20 by 30 feet and include a kitchen, bathroom and one bedroom. The addition would allow Hertz to keep a custodian on the premises while they were away. The one neighbor present, Louise King Eastham, said that she and her family had no objections: in fact, would welcome the presence of a custodian to increase protection for all neighboring property. General concensus of the board members that the apartment would never be used as a separate dwelling on a separate tract bogged down when several members could not make the findings that would permit it. “This just doesn’t fit into the concept of an agricultural area with one dwelling,” said Peter Kramer. “Does it make any difference to you that it is an efficiency?” asked chairman Lee Bird. “There could be some argument on that point,” responded Kramer. “But there’s always the possibility of expansion, resale and more people. It would be a bad precedent.” “It’s obvious that Judge -Herts's intentions are Umw© coQiu put tion that there could be no addition to the building he {dans,” suggested James Swindler. “This is difficult,” acknowledged Bird. “This is really close to the edge.” Kramer agreed, “I’m concerned...The property is already subdivided, although we know that Judge Hertz was not in control of it then.” “It’s not proper to take into consideration what was done to the property before,” said Swindler. “Let’s put a stipulation against expansion and resale into the permit.” “That doesn’t really address my concern,” said Kramer. “A 13 acre agricultural lot is just not intended for that density.” “Suppose it was a guest house,” asked Bird. “Would you have objections then?” “No, I wouldn’t,” responded Kramer. “My problem is the separate family unit.” “But when do you cross the line?”asked Bird. “When you include eating facilities and a bath room, said Kramer. Kramer pointed out to the board members that even if they agreed in principle to the request of the Hertz, and even in the present law neglects to address the case of a custodial apartment, “We don’t make the decisions here — we enforce the ordinance.” Swindler voted for the special use permit; Kramer and George Muth said they were unable to find that it satisfied the density requirements. “I’m unable to approve it either,” said Bird to Herts. “Perhaps the new ordinance will address it.” Extension For Promise Land Lillian Aylor appeared on behalf of Promise Land Baptist Church. The church had been granted a special use permit to build an extension of the church on their non-conforming lot. “We want a year’s extension,” said Aylor. “It’s taken us a while to raise the money.” The board agreed unanimously to grant the extension.

Chaffee To Serve 30 Days Jay Scott Chaffee of AmtariDe was found guilty by Judge John Alexander of driving while intoxicated (DWI), speeding and driving on a suspended license. Chaffee's license previously had been suspended for three yean in 1963 for two DWI’a. David Ronkk, Chaffee’s attorney, questioned arresting officer, trooper C. A. Moore, on the distance Moore stayed behind the defender's car during the pursuit. Konick also questioned the legitimacy of the alcohol test given Chaffee. Judge Alexander ruled the test valid. Konick requested that Chaffee be Bent to the Virginia Automobile Safety Action Program (VASAP). The request was denied, however, because Chaffee no longer possessed an operator’s license. Chaffee was sentenced to 30 days in jail, to be served on weekends. His license was suspended an additional three years, and he was fined 1200, phis (20 in costs. On a charge of not having a valid inspection sticker, Chaffee complied with the law.

FOOT FACTS Dr. Bruce Vogel “Home Surgery — A Real Hazard!” Mr.ny people perform a type of “home surgery" on themselves for a variety of reasons. They fool that they would prefer to do it themselves as the doctor hurts more. They feel that the medical costs today are too high. They don't need a doctor when they can do it themselves. There are many dangers in this type of thinking. Most important of all, patients cannot diagnose their illnesses or the adequacy of their circulation, two factors which uro very important in healing. Secondly, they cannot repair an ingrown nail or other problem as adequately or correctly as a physician. Lastly, they are not using sterile instruments despite the fact that they use disinfectants of alcohol. Home disinfectants do not kill all forms of organisms. Remember, they are the only feet you have. Don't abuse them. Or. Bruco I. Vogel, D.P.M., F.A.C.F.S.* 8353 Sod ley Rd 85 Garret St. Manassas, Va. 22110 Warrenton.

EQUAL MOUSING OPPORTUNITY c%SalcEstate Eileen M* Day realtor , SHOULD SELLER WARRANTY CONDITION? Do-It-Yourself homesellers can run into a lot of problems when selling their homes. One of these is the buyer who insists on a written warranty guaranteeing the condition of the imgor house systems, such as electrical, plumbing, air conditioning, water heaters, furnaces, built-in ranges and dishwashers. Even though the doctrine of “let the buyer beware” prevails in real estate, there are examples of sellers who have unwittingly given buyers written warranties regarding the condition of their properties. Some have had inevitable and costly legal repercussions. The Realtor, on the other hand, is trained to list a property and an swer a buyer’s question in a manner which is fair both to the seller and the buyer. Even though the buyer has the opportunity to inspect everything prior to the purchase, a seller may desire to purchase a one-year warranty package as a sales aid. There are approximately 200 firms across the nation willing to provide this service at a cost of from $200 to $300. Don’t try to do it yourself.

Carrington, Jr. as headmaster effective July 1. Mr. Carrington succeeds Clarke Worthington III, -who wiD be joining his family in Winston-Salem, N.C. Grymes Memorial School is an independent, co-ed elementary day school founded in 1947. One-hundred-thirty children from five counties and the city of Fredericksburg are enrolled at the Spicer’s Mill, Orange campus. Mr. Carrington, 49, is a graduate of St. Christopher’s School, Richmond, and Hampden-Sydney College. He holds a master’s degree in history from Columbia University and has completed course work at the University of Richmond for a master’s in secondary school administration. Carrington taught for seven years as an adjunct faculty member at Virginia Commonwealth University while pursuing his full-time teaching career at St. Christopher’s School where he joined the faculty in 1961. Mr. Carrington has served as assistant to the headmaster at St. Christopher’s since 1975. Going On In The Arts “Sound Of Music” Ideally Cast By TUTT STAPP-HARRIS and LAURIE MARSHALL FOSEAAC There are pitfalls to producing a much-produced play — many people know the story; there are expectations of the interpretations used; actors tend to imitate rather than act. RCHS avoided all of these with a fresh and entertaining production of Sound of Music,” directed by Don Bomberger with musical direction by Judy Bomberger. The famous musical, set against the backdrop of 1938 Austria awaiting the Nazi invasion, tells the true story of Maria Rainer, a young novice in a convent whose irrepressible spirit leads the Mother Abbess to send her away from the convent for a time to reexamine her reasons for being there. She is placed as a governess in the home of former Navy Captain Georg Von Trapp, a widower with seven children who all dress in uniform, march in formation in lieu of playing and hardly know their commander/father. Maria’s gentle hand guides the von Trapps into a family again, of which she too is a member by the play's end. The well-crafted opening scene, a twilight outside the abbey with the nuns singing and performing their final tasks before closing the gates for the night, demonstrated the strong singing and excellent use of space that characterized the show. Ginny Hickman was ideally cast as Maria. Her clear and unfettered singing and natural manner gave her interpretation of Maria its winning quality. Her performance was thoughtful and appropriate throughout, but she especially shone in her scenes with the children — when all seven of her charges pile into bed with her during a thunderstorm and she engages them in a lively singing of “The Lonely Goatherd. The Von Trapp children gave charming and individual performances and showed an understanding of ensemble acting that belied their years. Liesel (Dawn Watson), the oldest daughter, made effective transitions between her roles as older sister, budding young woman. In the song, “Sixteen Going On Seventeen," sung with her suitor Rolf played convincingly by David Fisher, she was teasing and flirtatious in response to his “sage” advice to her; in the next scene, she was able to contritely admit that she supposed she did need a governess. Frederich (Jonathan Watson) received one of the biggest laughs of the night as he stepped forward to introduce himself to the new governess and stated with deadpan seriousness, “I’m Friedrich, I’m a boy.” Louisa, the mischievous prankstar, was played with vitality by Tara Fisher, whose use of subtle facial expressions to indicate her EN|OY OUTDOOR COOKING THIS SUMMEKWITH A STRUCTO GLASS GRILL DOUMi BURNER ■ JBRtt >1U a Deluxe Mack Golden Classic design #401 sq. in. cooking area induces 147 sq. in.

Heida Maeyer had the opportunity to show both a fine bit of serious acting and a sense for comic timing, delivering several one-liners perfectly. Kurt (Adam Ross), Marta (Holly Moffett) and Gretle (Veronica Koehler) jvon the hearts of the audience as the smallest Von Trapps, but only their size was small—all three spoke with assurance and showed presence and poise on stage without losing their naturalness and youth. Captain Von Trapp was played in a controlled and straightforward style by Bob Baines— it was totally in keeping with his character and emphasized the times when he raised his voice or used a significant pause or inflection. He conveyed his wealth, his military background, his sense of discipline and his love for his children with small gestures and direct use of eye contact, and emerged as a strong, believable character. Jennifer Shorb’s performance as Elsa Schraeder, Von Trapp’s fiance before Maria came into his life, was similarly understated— she was a serious and icy contrast to Maria’s energy, but unlike Von Trapp had no desire to be otherwise. Her interactions with Maria, whom she suspected as a rival before anyone else had considered it, were carried off with a good balance of “pointed subtlety.” These two remote and self-contained characters were not left alone to bask in their reserve, however— they were made a trio by their outspoken and disheveled friend, Max, who was as reserved as a large, friendly and opinionated bear. Jim McCullough’s performance as Von Trapp’s friend, was wide open and *ftill of large gestures, .conveying just the type of contrasts needed. The Mother Abbess was played by Marie Davis, whose exceptional voice was well tested on the difficult song she sings to Maria “Climb Every Mountain,” the strong final of Act I. She and Maria perform a duet of “My Favorite Things” which gave Ms, Davis an opportunity to show another kind of vocal strength, as it was sung lightly and with a touch of Maria’s youthful energy. Sister Bertha (Julie Burke), Sister Margaretta (Aney Massie) and Sister Sophia (Denise Shorb) sang together with animation and control in “How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria,” maintaining the humor of the scene without losing their dignified bearing. All of the nuns and novices had another opportunity for a fine piece of ensemble singing following the gala marriage in Act II of Maria and Von Trapp. Supporting performances had been given the same careful attention as those of the principals. Convincing portrayals were turned in by Brian Barnes as Franz, the butler, Debbie Helmer as Frau Schmidt, the housekeeper, James Dennis as Herr Zeller; Elwood Dodson as Baron Elberfeld; Lee Baines as Admiral Von Schreiber, and all of those portraying the so-called “extras” without whom plays could not be done. The technical aspects of the production deserve speical note. “The Sound of Music” requires full changes of large and cumbersome sets, lighting for evening, nighttime, indoors and outdoors, elaborate costumes and many, many costume changes. Despite the conditions that exist for the productions of RCHS, all of these tasks were accomplished, and beautifully. The set changes were possibly the best feat of all, as they were made in silence and in less „ time than doe could imagine. Don and Judy. Bom. berger took on a huge project, which they and RCHS carried off with style. Ballet Ballet dancer Philip Salto ns tall Rosemond, who was visiting the county, discussed his experience, dreams and rewards of being a professional performer in the dance world. At 29, he is a senior soloist for the Cincinnati-New (Means City Ballet, a new company which combines the resources of two small cities in order to bring high quality dance to both places. Saltonstall’s desire to dance has taken him from the Washington Ballet School when he was 16 to study and performing in New York, Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati. His greatest dream was to become a principal for the American Ballet Theater, but his sights changed as that opportunity eluded him. He would still like to dance with a major company such as the Joffrey after, hopefully, becoming a principal for the Cincinnati Ballet. Saltonstall described ballet dancers as “artists who are athletes. I work ten hour days, six days a week, and on tour, it’s 24 hours. There are no holidays. ” As an employee of the Cincinnati Ballet he earns $13,000 for eight and a half months of work. When asked how he felt about other forms of dance, Saltons tall responded, “I don’t separate the different forms. I’ve studied jazz and modern dance. Ballet is my speciality.” Philip also has contended with a learning disability. Pursuing a love of music, he attempted to play flute as an adolescent, but was unable to read music, since he saw the notes in reversed order. He found that free-form jazz was the key to mastering the instrument. He has also had to cope with the problem of reversals in dancing and has achieved a great deal despite the added effort his handicap demands. When asked what the future holds, he acknowledged that, like an athlete, he must face a career change as the strain on his body takes it’s toll (he has arthritis in his knees and ankles).

A memorial standing tall in Washington, D.C. and the entombment this week of an unknown soldier who perished during that conflict show this nation is growing up and growing tall, too. Some say there is a revival of patriotism in America, spurned by a hostage crisis, the threat of foreign competition and a country that’s easing out of the throes of recession. Others content that patriotism never went the route of the Edsel. Rappahannock citizens who organized, attended and even spoke at Memorial Day Services in Washington and Culpeper this week probably never considered patriotism or honoring those who died in battle an on/off proposition. The loss of a son or companion burns into memory like a leaky faucet’s incessant drip, drip. . Senior citizens at the Retired Senior Volunteer program in Washington went a step beyond honoring those who have died. In March, they sent greeting cards and letters to servicemen stationed in Beirut. Like the adage that goes, “don’t wait until someone dies to tell them,” honoring them anytime could be the most appropriate thing a patriot can do. Merkle Season Ends On Light Note ByEUGENE McCAKTHY For me, last year’s merkle season ended with no more than a promise, a promise from a successful merkle hunter that, come this season, he would call me and take me with him on a hunt. He was a Culpeper County resident who had stopped at my house after reacting something I had written about merkle hunting and merkle hunters. As a token of his sincerity, almost a pledge, I thought, of reliability, he had given me about a pint of merides and three photographs, one of several beer cans sur rounded by merkles in the back of his pickup truck, and two others of merkles growing in the leafy debris of a forest floor. In so far as I know, merkles do not grow, they suddenly, simply, are. This visitor, I thought, since he was from Culpeper County and offering help to a resident of Rappahannock County, was a kind of latter day Samaritan, in the tradition of the earlier one who had given comfort and solace to a Judean in trouble. Consistent with the Biblical story, he promised to come back to give help if needed. As the merkle season progressed this year, I waited for that nil with greater and greater anxiety. It never came. As the end of April approached, I was near despair. In response to the barking of my dog, I went out of my house to find four prospecting merkle hunters. The leader asked me if he could take his band of merkle seekers across my yard to get to merkle country. I gave him permission, without hesitation, noting that he seemed to be a genuine merkle hunter, as did his silent companions. They carried paper sacks, rather than plastic ones. They were wearing the right kind of cap—an International Harvester Cap, a John Deere, and a Rappahannock County Co-op cap. They were all blue eyed. Three hours later, I was alerted to their return from the hills by the barking of my dog. They had had a successful afternoon. They had merkles, but offered me none. The leader, however, said that he would return later in the week and take me with him on another hunt. He did not return. On my own, I decided to make one last try for merkles on the Saturday before Easter Sunday, and invited my neighbor Dennis Fairbrother to come with me. He has blue eye. He brought his two-year-old daughter who also has blue eyes. I welcomed her, believing that innocence might help in the search for meikles. He hlso brought three brown-eyed golden retrievers. We found no merkles, but decided to go to the Easter morning sunrise service the next day on Red Oak Mountain. We did. It was a good service. The horizon was clear as the sun rose, although before the last minister had finished his remarks it had clouded over. Each one of the three speakers made reference to the certainty of the sunrise, of the coming of spring, of the blossoming of the red-bud, of the wild cherry trees, and of other promises of spring that had been fulfilled or would soon be fulfilled. I was waiting for some reference of hope relative to merkles. There was none. At the poet-sunrise service breakfast, half way down Red Oak Mountain, I managed to turn the talk to merkles. Tom Massie responded immediately. I had never looked upon Tom as a merkle expert. I had never seen him wearing the right kind of cap. I knew that he was a fairly good tennis player, especially in mixed doubles, if he had a good partner. He dressed well. I assumed that he was a good horseman, but had never associated him with merkles. I may have been wrong. At the mention of the word merkle, Tom became animated. He told of his successes in finding merkles, reporting that he had once collected half a trash-bag of merkles. As he reported his achievements, he turned occasionally to his son for vertification. The son said nothing, but seemed to endorse what his father had said. I thought of asking Tom’s wife for a supporting statement, but for two reasons did not do so. First, because as a general rule, I Poet, author, former United States Senator from Minnesota and candidate for the presidency, Eugene McCarnever question what merkle hunters say, and second, because of the long-standing rule that a wife cannot be called upon to testify against her husband. Moreover, Tom Massie does, I had noted, have the blue eyes of a true merkle hunter. In any case, I remained silent and eventually returned to my own house, resigned and accepting that another merkle season had come and gone. About 12 o’clock my telephone rang. I thought, for a moment, that it might be the Culpeper Samaritan. It was not, but rather the wife, of a husband and wife team of Rappahannock weekenders of ten years running. “We’ve done it,” she exulted. I hesitated to ask “What?” for I knew that they, husband and wife, were well into their fifties, if not beyond. Was this Elizabeth reporting the good news for her and Zacary? It was not. They had found merkles. They would show me where. In the old apple orchard they had found them, but gave no promise that I would see a merkle growing in its natural state, for they had, in so far as they knew, left none unpicked. I rushed over to their (dace, through their yard, and on to the orchard, where I found — one merkle — they had missed. It was growing under a dead apple tree. And then one more — at the edge of the orchard, under a tulip-poplar. My faith was saved. I now know that merkles grow in an old apple orchard — and that they can be found by persons with brown eyes, as well as by those with blue.

WARNER The Congress and the President have declared the week of May 27th through June 2nd, National Tourism Week. In celebrating this week, Americans observe the many contributions of the travel and tourism industry to our state and national economy. In its highest form, tourism is a quest for knowledge. Through tourism, we acquire a deeper awareness of our heritage, our environ* * ■sent'* and ' <oor- cuRapgj Travel stretches our and develops our sense of civilization. Not all people of the world eryoy the same unrestricted travel Americans do. In many countries, citizens must obtain permission from the central government to leave the country, and their passports are impounded by the national police upon their return. ; This quest for knowledge and freedom to travel have made tourism important not only to our leisure, but to our work. Roughly seven percent of the American labor force is employed by the tourism industry, either directly or indirectly. That’s more people than are employed in mining, construction, agriculture, utilities; finance, insurance or real estate. Travel is now the second largest retail industry and second largest private employer in the United States. In 1983, the industry generated nearly $200 billion in receipts and $20 billion in federal, state and local tax revenues. The industry directly employs 4.5 million Americans at every level or skill and indirectly provides another 2.2 million supporting jobs. Additionally, 99' percent of the one-half mil-' lion businesses serving the traveler are classified by the government as small businesses. In terms of international trade, international visitors to the United States in 1982 spent over $11 billion, gen erated $640 million in federal tax revenue and supported 300,000 American jobs. Very simply, travel means jobs. Minority workers hold 13 percent of all jobs in the industry—a higher percentage than their share of total U.S. employment. Similarly, women hold over half of all travel industry jobs (54 percent), proportionately one q tarter higher than their c verall share. In my view, thei e can be little debate that this reppresents a more tangible, and more effective commitment ’ to economic equity than all the existing job training and public assistance programs combined. The industry also employs more of our nation’s youth than any other. While only seven percent of total U.S. employment is represented by youth, it’s estimated that 24 percent of food service workers are teenagers as well as 75 percent of amusement park workers. Unfortunately, detailed data is not available on the number of young; workers for whom a college education (and ultimately a higher standard of living and a better life) was more possible because of travel industry employment. This data might indicate that travel and tourism are the largest private student assistance program in the nation. Clearly, the travel industry is doing more than its share in providing not only income but training and experience for our young citizens. Part of the reason this is possible is tourism’s ability to create new jobs faster than the rest of the economy, even during recession periods. The travel industry added 39,000 new jobs in the recessionary year 1982, while overall U.S. employment declined by 1.6 million jobs. Despite five recessions since 1958, the industry has produced successively more jobs in each of those intervening 25 years, contributing nearly 11 percent of the 38 million new jobs created. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, payroll jobs in travel-related businesses have increased 183 percent since 1958, or more than twice as fast as the growth in total U.S. payroll employment during the same period. As recently as 1979, the travel and tourism industry was responsible for creating 35 percent of all new jobs. In 1980, it provided 28 percent of the new employment generated that year. i 'In Virginia, travel and ■ tourism is the third largest employer* in the state, providing jobs for more than 83,000 persons at an annual payroll of over $679 million. As the second largest industry in the Commonwealth, travel and tourism generated over $3.5 billion in expenditures in 1981, resulting in total tax revenues to local, state and federal governments of over $307.4 million. In 1981, persons traveling in Virginia, for business and pleasure, spent an average $9.8 million a day for food, lodging, services and transportation. This year, at least twothirds of the American public is expected to travel to a destination 100 miles or more from home. Last year, Americans took one billion such trips, more than twice as many as were reported in the 1972 National Travel Survey. That we have set aside this week to acknowledge the benefits that tourism bestows on this nation is therefore fitting. I hope that every Virginian will take this occasion to reflect upon these benefits. Tourism is a vital part of American life. It is our perfect freedom.

It was saved from being a total catastrophe only because an adjournment was engineered before a liberal platform could be adopted which could well have done in every Democratic candidate in the state in this Call’s elections. As things turned out, a catastrophe was avoided. The convention turned out to be merely a disaster. I do not use the word lightly. In its inception, planning and execution the gathering was a catalogue of snafus and foul-ups which were sweeping in their dimensions and epic in their implications. From the hopeless confusion of lost hotel reservations through the meandering agenda which somehow never found itself to the eminently forgettable keynote speech by a congressman named Richard Gebhardt from Missouri, the delegates wandered in a sort of combined state of desperation and disbelief. Time and space do not permit a detailed bill of particulars, but a few observations about the event are in order. There was a big loser and a big winner in the affair. Hie big loser, regrettably, was Gov. Chuck Robb. The governor is supposed to be the titular head of the party, yet his role at the convention seemed to be that of a passive bystander with only a bemused and detached interest in what was taking place. His reluctance to become actively involved ranged from his lukewarm endorsement of the candidate for the U.S. Senate nominated by the convention, former Del. Edythe Harrison of Norfolk, to his failure to openly support his own positions on a number of issues. His views on them were somewhat furtively passed to party leaders by a Robb lieutenant early in the action. They were on an untitled and unsigned sheet of paper which was distributed, and heard of no more. Among the ftaeitions was a recommendation that incumbent National Committeewoman Louise Cunningham of Lynchburg be re-elected. She was defeated. Another was a recommendation that the convention reject a proposal that a Resolutions Committee be formed to writetpplstform for the party. It ? - was done, albeit by a narrow vote. * Robb’s ftOure may have been that ne tried to ‘ work behind the scenes through the party organization to achieve his goals. The problem was that no organization had been developed with sufficient strength and clout to do the job. Perhaps the most unhappy contingent at the convention was made up of those delegates who, in response to a letter from Robb, had remained in the uncommitted caucus. But that caucus, like the rest of the convention was leaderless. At the time when the at-large uncommitted delegates to the national convention were to have been elected in accordance with Robb’s request, he left the convention and headed far Richmond to meet a "previous engagement.” The caucus foiled to muster enough strength to qualify for even one delegate. “He left us high and dry!” complained one dele gate bitterly. But if the Norfolk experience cast new and troubling doubts on Robb’s skill — not to mention interest — in political leadership, it also cast the spotlight on a new political figure who, more than anyone, moved to fill the leadership void at the convention. He is the Rev. L.E. Willis of Portsmouth, bishop of the predeominantly black Garden of Prayer Temple. Willis, who appears to be a political moderate, led the convention forces committed to the Rev. Jesse Jackson. With skill and evident restraint, he used the leverage of his delegation to achieve a number of compromises which will, without doubt, increase the influence of minorities in the Democratic party councils in the ftiture. Most notably, he obtained an agreement that efforts will be made to increase the size of the Democratic State Central Committee to allow for the election of more minority members. If anyone can be said to have emerged a winner from the convention, it was Willis. Still, there is a possibility that the charge that Robb abdicated his responsibility at the convention may be unfair. His loyalists insist that the governor knew exactly what he was doing, and he did it to salvage what he could from an obvious political fiasco. According to this scenario, Robb saw that the convention had nominated a Senate candidate who, however dedicated and well intentioned, would be no match for incumbent Republican John Warner in conservative Virginia. He also saw that the party had lurched to the left, and that the convention was effectively in control of its liberal wing. He also may have believed that overt intervention on his part in the cause of moderation might have unleashed a liberal backlash which would only have made matters worse. Thus, according to this theory, he intentionally distanced himself from the proceedings in order to have more credibility with moderate, conservative, and independent voters in the state. This will be important when he campaigns for Democratic candidates in this fall’s congressional races and in next year’s state wide contests. It’s a valid argument. But as the convention wound down, a battered delegate probably summed up the private views of many of those who remained to the bitter end. Chuck’s doing a fine job as governor,” he said, "but either he still doesn’t understand how to lead a party, or he’s got his own agenda which simply doesn’t include the rest of us. ” Such is the continuing enigma of Virginia politics.

She participated in a pinning ceremony for the nursing class on the Saturday evening prior. While attending the University of Virginia, she received intermediate honors and the Beverly Reamy News From By NANCY SCHOPPET Rappahannock Newt Correspondent *37-5234 A great round of applause goes out to the Rappahannock County High School’s production of “The Sound of Music” which was performed last weekend. Jim McCullough, our fine actor from Castleton, gave an outstanding performance as Max Detweiler. Congratulations to the cast! The Castleton Fire Department is having an important meeting on June 6th in the fire hall at 7 p.m. All members are urged to attend and all residents are cordially invited. Frank Grimsley, one of Castleton’s original residents, is a patient at the V.A. hospital in Mart insburg, W. Va. He would certainly eiyoy hearing from his good old neighbors , and friends. Please send your cards and letters to: Waad 113-B, Building 1, Martinsburg, W. Va. 25401. We sure hope that Mr. Grimsley is feeling well and in good spirits. Frank and Doris Donald just got home from a glorious seven day trip traveling from state-to-state in their large camping van to the once Cherokee land of Northeastern Georgia. They visited Doris’s sister, Annie Dell Bigham of Gainesville, Ga., and they all went to the Amicalola Falls State Park and spent a few days in a lovely cottage at the bottom of the falls. Plunging 729 feet, Amicalola Falls is the second highest waterfall in the United States. They could hear the whirling, rushing water from their cottage at night. It was the most beautiful spot that any Harrow award for commitment to nursing during her third year. As a fourth year student, she was voted to represent UVA during National Week of the Nurse in October. Marion served as student council representative for the fourth year nursing class and was a member of the Student Nurses Association. Marion is a 1980 graduate of Rappahannock County High School. Castleton one could imagine! It’s where the Appalachian Trail and Chattahoochee River begin. Afterwards, Frank and Doris visited a dear friend in Gainesville, Ga., Mrs. Maurine Ellis in her underground home. Being the victim of a horrendous tornado once.Maurine chose to rebuild her home with safety in mind! The Donalds also dropped by another fine friend’s home in Bryson City, N. C.- Mrs. Lucy Gossett. She lives in the Great Smoky Mountains and quilts for Doris. How nice it was to see her. Frank and Doris camped at Lake Heart well in South Carolina, Lake Too How in North Carolina and at Swan Lake in Danville, Va. Some of the camp grounds were unbelievably loaded with people! They would have stayed on their vacation longer, but their love for their garden in Castleton brought them back in one quick week. Oh what Kin they had! , Although she is not' at Monticello, her first choice, Auntie Michelle May |as found a rustic cabin to tall home for herself and “That Cat” near Charlottesville, Va. The move in the ll-h^ul from Castleton to Charlottesville was not what “That Cat” calls relaxing, but they made it and are finally settled. Our best wishes and meows to Auntie and Cat! The Homemaker's Comer By FLORENCE VICKERS Extemion Agent With vacation season arriving soon, Rappahannock travelers should note that vanilla from Mexico is no bargain. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says tourists in Mexico may be buying a bargain that could be hazardous to their health. Coumarin extract is being sold as genuine vanilla or added to real vanilla in Mexico. Coumarin smells and tastes enough like real vanilla to satisfy all but the expert#, and sells for as little as $1.50 per quart. Coumarin, however, has been shown to cause liver damage in test animals and is banned for use in food in the United States. The FDA has tested vanilla extracts from Mexico and found coumarin in varying amounts, so tourists have no way of knowing the amount present in the flavoring they buy.

Lyman's Country Cupboards Gives Old Fashioned Quality By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rawhunoek Ntw» SUIT Writer Gene Lyman's display room at Country Cupboards is stocked with an array of cabinets that look like they were carried straight from the pages of Better Homes and Gardens. A sense of antiquity and the quality Craftsmanship usually reserved for drawing room furniture is captured in curves and moldings borrowed from traditional designs. The link between Lyman’s gleaming new kitchen ' cabinets and woodworking of 100 and 200 years ago isn’t accidental. “I’ve always been a student of antiquity,” explained the Washington businessman who first opened his shop at the Corner of Jett and Gay Streets 11 years ago. “It’s been my desire all along to build things in the best manner using traditional joinery, the highest quality materials and traditional designs. When I advertise that we’ll do a reproduction, it’s an exact reproduction. I don’t think you can improve much on Queen Anne or Chippendale.” The comer shop smells of vhood shavings and buzzes quietly with a blend of music fiim the radio and table saws. “This has been our busiest winter ever, the first winter when I didn’t stand around without cabinets to build. We’ve had to depend mostly on restorations in past winters,” Lyman said. He attributes the upkirge move to a spreading reputation than an improving economy. “We’ve had a lot of return customers. Some are on their second Country Cupboard’s kitchen (the shop’s specialty). They’ve moved to another ‘new’ house with an old kitchen in need of remodeling and they’ve come to us again. It’s really rewarding to me to think that people are that happy with our work,” Lyman added. It’s not hard to tell why after looking over display pieces and color photographs of County Cupboards’ work. The products range from in vogue country kitchens that Lyman finished complete with cabinets, bar, barstools and floor, to a more formal dining room, for which he designed and built cabinets, entrance doors, windows, floors and wall paneling. Both are equally inviting, equally tasteful. “I design almost everything that goes out of here,” Lyman said. “I’ve been fortunate. Most of my customers have gotten to me before they’ve gotten to an architect!” Self-Taught Lyman didn’t study design or craftsmanship in school. “I’m self-taught in every aspect from the preliminary drawings to the woodworking to the business end. It’s been a long process.” His education started in a veterinarian’s office — not a high school shop class. “I was 19 years old, in college to be a vet, and I got disgusted with the beaurocratic process and the games people play there so I dropped out and got a job in a veterinarian’s office,” Gene recalled. The vet was remodeling his building. “I watched the carpenters and especially the cabinet makers and decided That’s for me!’ At the end of the day, you’ve got something to show for yourself,” Lyman explained. From Alexandria originally, he found his way out to the town of Washington and a job as apprentice with cabinet maker Peter Kramer. From there, he went into business on his own. In addition to the reproductions and custom cabinetry, Lyman also stays busy doing specialty mill work for restorations of old houses. " “You can’t go to a lumber yard and get what you need for a 200 year old building. It takes a shop like this,” he said, waving his arm toward an extensive collection of equipment. Most of the mill work is for projects in neighboring Fauquier County and the town of Warrenton. The same applies with Country Cupboards’ cabinetry orders. “There’s an attitude over there with older homes, a commitment to keeping them the way they were built to look. And there’s no cabinet made in a factory today that looks appropriate next to logs. It just doesn’t work,” Gene maintained. But Country Cupboards’ cabinets work, according to their maker. He attributes the match in part to reliance on traditional design and part to use of traditional materials. “We use the right type of wood — old heart pine, what they used in those days for building. There’s nothing like it. It has character,” Lyman said. Most of the wood that goes into his designs is recycled, salvaged from old homes and bams, old country stores and their notched and scarred counters and shelves. “The species of pine tree it came from is almost non-existent now,” Lyman noted. Hie cabinet maker employs two young apprentices in his expanding business: Jeff Dwyer, a graduate of RCHS, and Brett Taylor, who moved here from College Park, Maryland. “They both have the same burning desire, the same excitement at the reward of the finished product, that I did. And they’re both 21. I was 21 when I started in this business — they remind me of me,” the boss added, grinning. Hoots In Rappahannock Now Lyman is enough of a business man to recognize that he could do better financially if he worked in a more urban setting. But in the past 11 yean, he's established roots in Rappahannock County. He's the fellow who roasts the piggie for the Washington Volunteer Firemen’s July 4th barbecue. A member of the board of directors for Sursum Corda for three yean, he’s been the unofficial repair and maintenance supervisor for the Child Care and Learning Center where his wife, Tinker, is assistant director.

' Finnerty Discovers Columbus I RCES Has National Award Winner “This is really something to be proud of,” said creative writing teacher Mike Conmfey in presenting a national ward to one of his budding authors, Brendan Finnerty. Brendan, a seventh grader at Rappahannock County Elementary School, entered competition sponsored by the International Reading Association’s special interest group for gifted and talented students as a project in the creative writing mini-course taught after school by Connifey and Susan Wittl. The course had two objectives: to encourage youngsters to write and to have their works published. “Now Brendan’s accomplished both,” Connifey noted. Brendan received an honorable mention in the ju nior high division of the IRA’s Paul A. Witty Outstanding Literature Award for his short essay on Columbus. “In the class, we wrote ideas for stories on the blackboard. One was Columbus. I have him on the wall in my bedroom so I decided to write about him. I finished it in probably an hour,” Brendan said. The award presentation was at the International Reading Association’s Convention in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 10. “We looked into going down to pick up our award in person but the cost was prohibitive,” Connifey said. “Another thing is that I would have missed school,” the young scholar added. “If it had been in the summer, I know I would have been able to go!” m-st Super capacity AUTOMATIC WASHER • 4 automatic wash cycles • Heavy duty 2 speed motor • 4 water level selections • 3 wash/nnse temperatures— ' MODEL LA SSSOXM A kvV I COME ON IN AND SHOP WITH USI Rappahannock Farmers Co-op Sperryville, Va. 987-8555 —Rjppahannock Newt PbouVFrankJin Schmid) JOHN COMBS anticipates victory in the potato spoon race. —Rappahannock Ncwi Pboto/Fraoklm Schmkk AWARD WINNING WRITER Brendan Finnerty and reading teacher Mike Connifey, instructor in the creative writing mini-course.

The students participated in the annual event called Field Day. Field Day replaces the old-time May Day, incorporating such events of atheletic prowess as a bean bag toss, three-legged race, potato sack race, 50 yard dash, potato spoon race, egg toss (in which teachers also participated), jump rope and peanut hunts. According to Teresa McClorhom, physical education teacher, this was the culmination of over two months of organizing, charting, planning and machining such a large-scale structured event. The effort, McClorhom felt, was worth it as the children debated before each event who would be fastest, strongest or have the best aim. They then discussed incessantly afterward who was fastest, strongest, etc. The children ran, wrestled, and played with intensity, and then had energy < for the events, and more energy yet. Miss Foster, physical education aide, who was experiencing Field Day for the first time, said it was the main event of the year and gave the children a chanty to “let it loose.” Children talked about it for months before, and would a&ue about it for weeks after,,she said. It was fortunate, according to the teachers, that there were enough grounds and facilities for all the events to be held with all the children participating at the same time. Many other schools, they said, didn’t have as much land and had to operate in shifts. Mrs. Lynne Barnes, seventh grade teacher, was particularly enthusiastic. She called Field Day “glorious," and thought it was especially wonderful that the teachers got to wear shorts, get a suntan, and throw eggs at each other, too. Students From Rappahannock County Earn Honors Four students from Rappahannock County recently earned honors at their schools, according to press releases from Randolph-Macon Academy of Front Royal and the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University(VPI) of Blacksburg. At Randolph-Macon, Edwin M. Eastham, a freshman, received the "Outstanding Cadet” award, given annually on Parents’ Weekend. This year the ceremony took place on Mother’s Day, May 13. Eastham is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin M. Eastham of Huntly. At VPI, three students from Rappahannock made the dean’s list during the winter quarter. They are Deborah H. DeBergh, a senior sociology major from Washington; Thomas H. Eastham, a freshman general engineering major from Flint Hill; and Lynn W. Jones, a freshman general engineering major from Sperryville.

At 90, C.B.Jolmson Still Sparkles ; GINGER CADW ALLaSeR -reads birtKday card 45^S£ 'l5SS^^ Woodvilfe, who celebrated His 90th on May 25. ' By JON HEDDLESTON KatpahanasrliNm Staff Writer His blue eyes still sparkle; there’s hardly a wrinkle on his face. His mind is as clear as a morning on Red Oak Mountain. He’s Clarence Berkley “C.B.” Johnson, and when he turned 90 on May 25, people from all over Rappahannock County and elsewhere turned out to wish him Happy Birthday. C.B. was born in Browntown, in Warren County, in 1894. But he grew up in Woodville, on top of Red Oak, the same mountain his ancestors first inhabited in 1746. Red Oak remained virtually unchanged from that time until the turn of the 20th Century; while C.B. was growing up, only five families lived there. "It was very pleasant for me,” C.B. readied of early years on Red Oak. "We had a little farm.” Became Orchardiats The Johnson farm of 156 acres was supplemented by adjoining acreage that the family rented and cropped prior to 1907. In that year, the Johnsons planted an orchard. By 1910, orcharding provided a primary means for the family to live off the land. "We raised apples and peaches that propogated themselves,” Raymond, the youngest of the three Johnson boys still living, explained. “We started raising Hale-Harrison peaches in 1945. We were told there were only two places where they’d grow—Apton and Red Oak,” brother Bryan, three years younger than C.B., added. Growing up on Red Oak wasn’t easy; lots of work and little time for leisure filled the long days, the Johnson brothers admitted. On school days, the Johnson children (5 boys, 1 girl) walked three miles down the mountain, a journey that became downright treacherous in winter. On Sundays, 4flbMtgh, C.B. recalled Tiding *<£. horse to church, which, like almost everything else, ^ Rafpttmmock Newt Staff Photo • NINETY CANDLES adorned the cake celebrating the birthday of C.B. Johnson (c) of Woodville. Brothers Bryan (1) and Raymond (r) joined the celebration. The cake was baked by Ruth Orange of Woodville and decorated by her niece, Misty Hitt. was located at the base of Red Oak. ■ Lively Recollections C.B.’s recollections of life on Red Oak are vivid as violets on an overcast day. The boys found time for mischief, he recalled. Bryan was the instigator on one particular day. C.B. recalled that Bryan diligently had been trapping owls, the beaks from which drew a healthy bounty of 50 cents each. Bryan was bored. He thought it would be fun to see how one of the barn cats might react to the owl. So, he tied the dead bird to the cat’s tail. The cat fled the scene of the<crime like a bandit. The owl scurried too; bouncing along in hot pursuit. “The cat must’ve thought the owl was chasing it,” C.B. related in between chuckles. The cat proceeded through a fence; the owl got detached at that point. When the cat looked back, the owl was sitting caught in the fence. The cat turned on the owl and attacked — to the hoots and hollers of the boys. . . until they heard Mom coming. Mom was Florence Adelaide Johnson, who lived to be 98. She was strong-willed and, generally, soft-hearted. The boys scattered, except for Raymond-theyoungest, who recalled that he often received the blame and the wrath. “Mom’d jump three feet, grab a isprout and ' start working on me before she took the leaves off,” Raymond said, smiling sorely. Meanwhile, the big brothers were off hiding behind the barn, having a good laugh, he recalled. Worked 37 Years Life was serious, too. In 1923, C.B. took a job with Railway Mail Services. “Worked there 37 years and 2 months,” he said with certainty. C.B. sorted mail on the train while enroute to stations in Boston, Woodville, Sperryville, Washington and other points south to Charlottesville. If they were picking up mailbags, the train would stop; if they were only delivering, the mailbag would be hooked on a post outside the station as the train whisked by. C.B. recalled a freight car derailment outside of Washington, D.C. in which the engineer was killed and others two cars back with him were injured. C.B., Bryan, and Raymond also recalled where they were in 1929, when a tornado made splinters of St. Paul’s Church in Woodville and the house that used to be on the site where C.B. has lived since 1931. C.B. was near D.C. at work; Raymond was close enough to the storm to have his car bounced around by the winds. Bryan and others watched while Ginger Cadwallader read birthday cards from all over the country to C.B. Then she read a card to C.B. from Bryan. “I wouldn’t fnind sending you another in another year,” Bryan prodded.

Front Royal, Va 635-3241 • 635-8159 I noughts And Reflections • < By MERLIN SHORB ■UMMhannock New* Gueat Columnist Is everything that happens ika yUl of God? Sotm*. thing terrible comes to pass, and we conclude it ’ must have been God’s wilL It shouldn’t have happened, but since it did, God willed it! What we tend to forget is that Cod’d good intentions for the world are not always being carried out by God’s creatures. The words we say, “Thy will be done on earth...” imply that God’s will is hot being deployed on earth “as it is in heaven.” This determinism in the church that conveniently blames God when things go wrong; this determinism makes a scapegoat out of God, and presents Christians as copping out. Any thinking person will naturally conclude we are shirking responsibility by fabricating a deterministic god on whom we can lay the blame for our own negligence. Fortunately, this deterministic god is not the Lord of the Bible. The Bible pictures God’s plans as being resisted, and actually rejected, by God’s creatures. It is true that God’s ultimate plans for human history cannot be thwarted. But it is also true that people can abort “God’s purpose for themselves.” (Luke 7) This is a rock-bottom distinction... essential for any fruitful insight into the will of God. It is comforting to know that finite creatures as we cannot throw a monkey wrench into the machinery of the universe. But it is just as upsetting that we can succeed in removing ourselves from participation. If everything that happens is God’s will, then the rebellion and destruction of the wicked is also God’s will. Yet the Bible teaches that it is not God’s will that any should disobey and perish. God cannot tell a lie. God does not have a “signified will” which God makes known, and an “effectual will" which is God’s real intention. God proclaims salvation for everyone in Jesus Christ; and this is God’s real intention.' But is this is true, how can God let people go on their merry way knowing full well the end result? First off, people are created in God’s own image. At least part of that image is our ability to make up our own minds, choose our own destiny, and accept the consequences. Furthermore, God cannot choose for me without distorting God’s image in me. This is something the Lord will not do. God will not interfere in my choosing. Even if those choices lead me far away. Why would God permit us to sin, and then forgive us when we repent? Why not simply prevent us from sinning in the first place? Let’s ask the other question be Real Estate Transfers Lucy Diane Bruce to James B. Clark and wife, 5.211 acres, Jackson District. $68,500. Hilda Kalish and husband to Robert Poole, 25V« seres, Stonewall District. $100,000. Albert W. Ward and wife to Paul F, Barkley and wife, tract one, 22.040 acres »im| tract two, 2.00 acres. $22,000.

Saunders and wife to John Hartshorn Neal, 10,451.5 aq. it, Hampton District. $886.12. Charles B. Gilpin and wife to Kenneth B. Gilpin and wife, 8.2 acres, Wakefield District Gift hind these two: Why did God permit sin to begin with? Some suggest a “permis< sive will” of God. But what is a “permissive will?” Is it that God “permits” us to go the wrong way when God could do otherwise? Is it not rather that the Lord “permits” us to choose our own way, and to actually go our own way? It is meaningless to say we are created free, only to have God’s will forced upon us. Freedom to obey is also freedom to rebel. And God is taking the risk. Love always takes the risk. Ask two people in love! God does not want mules who must be compelled to obey. God wants people who freely accept God’s counsel. God wants a relationship based on mutual trust; not on fear and appeasement. The divine wish will go unfulfilled in those who per—■ ish through unbelief. But God’s will would also go unfulfilled in those forced to . Obey. Transformation into mules becomes only another way of perishing. The genius of God is that God’s controlling interests do not suffer when God’s will is resisted. God’s initiative in human history is the Cross; in a life of service and self-sacrifice. The Lord’s greatness is not in pushing people around, as if God were the larger version of a human dictator. God does not directly determine everything that happens. To God’s credit is the fact that God triumphs in spite of this. The Lord is bringing human history to a sane conclusion without compromising human freedom, and at the same time without compromising God’s integrity and God’s sovereignty.

POSITION VACANCY COUNTY BUILDING OFRCIAL The Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County Is considering applicants ter the poeition of a building official who shall be responsible tor inspection and enforcement of the BOACA Building Codes tor aH applicable construction in Rappahannock County. To be eligible tor appointment the BOACA Basic Building Code states that the building official shall have at least five (5) years building experience as a licensed professional engineer or architect, building inspector, contactor or superintendent of building construction, for three (3) years of which experience he shall have been in responsible charge of work, and he shall be generally informed on good engineering practice in respect to the design and construction of buildings, the basic principles of fire prevention, the accepted requirements tor means of egress and the installation of elevators and other service equipment necessary tor the health, safety and general welfare of the occupants. The Board may waive one or more of these requirements where it is determined that the applicant has related experience or aptitude. This will be a part-time poeition with mileage compensation and compensation for attendance at approved training seminars. The poeition wiH become effective July 1,1964. Application in writing, stating qualifications, should be submitted to Diane Bruce, Clerk of the Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County, Washington, Virginia on or before 4:00 P.M. Friday, June 1.1964. The Brutons also spoke about a second sign, one similar to the sign already near their home, but in a place more visible from the road. After determining that the building already existed, that there would be no outdoor display, that employees other than residents would be limited to one, and that the sign discussed would satisfy the Highway Department regulations, the board unanimously agreed to their request. Mrs. Bruton congratulated the Board: “In 1966 my father advised me to buy land in Rappahannock,” she said. “He said that the zoning laws were good here.” Telephone Service Cabinet Representatives of the C. and P. Telephone Company requested permission to construct a service cabinet near the intersection of Route 729 and 618. After some discussion of whether the Highway Department would allow plantings to screen the cabinet, Kramer said, “If it’s not in a place where it can be screened, then move it. I don’t want to see these things. It’s got to have vegetation.” The utility’s request was granted unanimously with the stipulation that plantings of shrubbery be made. Plans For Amissville The request of Jesse J. and Lois W. Settle to build a separate office building for a used car lot in Amissville led the board to a discussion of the future of Amissville. “Why didn’t the Planning Commission give us a recommendation on this one?” asked Kramer. “There was a split of opinion,” said David Konick, Zoning Administrator. “There were some precedents for this kind of thing and the feeling was that it would be unfair to deny this request.” “We need guidance from the board,” repeated Kramer. “This is a planning function. How far are wo going to let Amissville sprawl?” “This is a planning problem,” agreed Bird. “The Planning Commission has already taken a stand,” argued Konick. “At a hearing in 1976 the citizens appeared before the board of supervisors to protest rezoning of Amissville. The supervisors did not take the advice of the planning commission and kept the zoning agricultural. “It’s 1984, not 1976,” said Kramer. "The time has come to redefine the comprehensive plan.” “Do you really think they’ll make a recommendation?” asked Konick. “They’re not going to.” “Well, we all sit in some hot seats,” answered Kramer. “If we ask them specifically, then they’ll give us something,” said Swindler. The board voted to return the request of the Settles to the Planning Commission, specifically asking for their plans for Amissville and their recommendations on the Settle property. A request by Dudley Semmes to build a second dwelling on her 86 acres off Route 522 on Long Moun tain was approved unanimously Shooting Ranee Issued Raised A request by Ruth Bowers to extend the permit for the temporary trailer that she and Robert Bowers were using as a home led to a discussion by the board and by neighbors present of shooting at the home site in Amissville. The Bowen own and operate Blue Ridge Guns just next to their home. Bowers explained that her home and business had burned down in a tragic lire. Reconstruction, she explained, centered around the business first. Their focus on rebuilding the business had prevented them from building their home on schedule. In response to questioning, Bowers said that she expected to break ground within the next few months. Korack explained the limitations on trailers in the county: “I bent the law when I issued her the permit at first. She had no place to live. The BZA further bent it a little to allow it. Right now, this is the only trailer in the county not in a trailer park. The Planning Commission recommends that temporary trader permits not be renewed. Now it’s been one year and five months and they had promised last year that it would be moved very soon.” Swindler pointed out that temporary trailer permits are not granted to anyone building a home. ‘They’re ready for those who are living at the site because they’re actually doing the construction. Otherwise, why can’t they live at a trader court nearby?" Bowers responded that her husband did plan to do much of the work and that the construction would start soon. “I can’t give you a definite date,” she said. “I’d like to have a date,” said Kramer. “Can we check after three months to see how this has progressed?” The Bound recognized some members of the audience, neighbors of the Bowers. ‘They’ve had plenty of time to break ground there,” said Jim Green, a neighbor to the west. “But my question is this: did you approve a shooting range at their store?” “Why is there shooting?” asked Bird of Bowers. “From time to time ws need to shoot to test a weapon, answered Bowers. “From time to time!” exclaimed Green. ‘The other day I heard 33 shots!” *This is not an appropriate forum for this discussion,” said Bird. “Have you tried to have this nuisance abated?” “We’ve tried the sheriff and the commonwealth’s attorney,” said Green. S.D. Hutton, another neighbor, spoke up. “I have not objection to the trailer,” he said. “But I do object to the shooting. It’s alarming and frightening.” “I don’t know anything about this,” said Bowers. “I’ll have to mention it to my husband.” The shooting is not a consideration that we can make,” said Kramer. “But there is a whole feeling here that you don’t care about what the neighbors and the MOUNT VERNON REALTY 35 LOCATIONS 1300 AGENTS Wananton, Va.

We took some compassion on you when we let you live in that trailer. Now we need you to show a spirit of cooperation. People are upset. Why don’t you just stop shooting?” “I don’t know anything about it,” repeated Bowers. "We would like to show a reasonable consideration for you here,” said Kramer. “Why don’t you extend that to other people?” Bird agreed: “You’ve had hardships yourself, so you must sympathize. We have no power, of course, to do anything here about the shooting. Please deal with this problem just out of the spirit of compassion for those who find a sudden noise shocking and frightening.” The board agreed to extend tiie temporary trailer permit three months, at which time construction must be started. Konick told the board that the Planning Commission would hold an informal information meeting on the draft ordinance sometime before their July meeting. Discussion of the new ordinance was interrupted when Roger Kidwell of Flint Hill told the board, “I’m here to tell you that Pat Saltonstall is in violation of her building permit. She was turned down in her request for a multi-family dwelling. Now she is indeed building it.” “Who is inspecting it?” asked Kramer of Konick. “No comment,” said Konick. “I don’t think you can do that,” said Kramer. “I’ll make no comment because this is not an appropriate place for these remarks,” said Konick. “This is not an enforcement body.” “Who does have the power of enforcement of the permits?” demanded Kidwell. “Mr. Konick does, as Zoning Administrator,” responded Bird. “We may have no authority,” said Kramer. “But we must endeavor to help citizens find satisfaction. We do need people to see that our decisions must be enforced.” Konick responded that he hadn’t had time to inspect the Saltsonstall project and that he would need more time to do so. He added that the BZA meeting was not an appropriate place for such a complaint. “Where is an appropriate place,” asked KidweU. “If I’m not satisfied with his actions, to whom do I appeal?” “You can appeal to us,” said Kramer. Present at Wednesday’s meeting were Bird, Kramer, Swindler, Muth and Konick.

Advantages Of No-Tillage No-tillage production of corn conserves soil and water and reduces capital investment in machinery, but most important to many producers is that no-tillage can result in better corn yields than conventional tillage. For example, in a 15-year study at Virginia Tech, no tillage corn planted into a rye cover out-yielded conventional tillage by 16 percent. In a 3-year University of Maryland study, no-tillage com in a small grain/soybean stubble out-yielded conventional tillage by 28 bushels per acre.
