Eddie Wayland stopped by Hillsdale Grocery for cigarettes and bought three lottery tickets too. One of the tickets won him $10,000. According to Hillsdale's owner, Jerry Foster, Mr. Wayland was “really excited." And, so was Mr. Foster. “I feel very good about it," he said. The $10,000 ticket brings to $21,000 the number of big ticket vyinners sold by Hillsdale since the lottery started in September. Mr. Foster said that lottery officials told him they have no record of another outlet selling that many large winning tickets. Mild winter predicted After collecting more than 250 woolly bear caterpillars, the Hagerstown Almanack has released its prediction of the coming winter. According to folk wisdom the caterpillars, which have three bands of varying colors, are accurate predictors of the winter's severity. For the first half of the winter, the almanac predicts, the temperature and snowfall will be average. During February and March, temperatures will be above average and very little snow will fall. The woolly bears' prediction, the almanac added, is close to its own prediction of 38 inches of snow and average temperatures. Carolers wanted Since Washington began its Colonial Christmas celebration in 1986, stroll/ng carolers have been a part of the tradition of the season^This year, all would-be singers are again requested to join this celebration ^ of the season for carolling on Dec. 3 and 4, as part of the town's Colonial Christmas *v» observance. Anyone interested in joining this informal group should contact Susan or Walt Longyear (675-3679) for more details. Motorists warned of deer Motorists are warned to be extremely careful when driving on the county's roads, especially after dark. A number of accidents involving deer have been reported during the past several weeks, and the danger will continue through the winter. State Police recommend that motorists scan the roadsides for the glint from animals' eyes, and to never out-drive their headlights; in other words, be able to stop within the distance illuminated ahead.

Bush, Robb sweep county and state Pari-mutuel racing wins approval by comfortable margin By LOU HATTER Rappahannock New* Staff Writer There were no surprises in Tuesday s presidential election, and Virginia’s Senate contest was a foregone conclusion. The number of people who went to the precincts, however, surpassed the predictions of the pre-election pollsters, as voter turnout averaged about 80 percent of the electorate. Rappahannock stuck with the average, with 80.2 percent of eligible voters casting their ballots. In. Rappahannock County, voters supported Vice President George Bush, who garnered 61 percent of the votes cast. Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis lagged far behind with only 37 percent. The remaining two percentage points represented the five votes cast for Independent Party candidate Lenora Fulani and Libertarian Party candidate Dr. Ron Paul, who got 15 votes county-wide. Apparently, the Republican Party’s support in the county wavered when voters marked their ballots in the U.S. Senate race between former Governor Charles S. Robb and Maurice Dawkins. A sizable number of voters jumped to the Democratic ship in that race, giving Mr. Robb 71 percent of, the vote in Rappahannock. Mr. Dawkins finished a distant second with only 29 percent of the vote. Statewide, voters also supported Mr. Bush, giving him a strong 60 percent of the vote compared to 40 percent for Gov. Dukakis. The county’s results exactly mirrored the statewide totals for the Senate race. Mr. Robb won, 71 to 29 percent. With about half of the votes across the country officially tallied, Mr. Bush had received 56 percent to Mr. Dukakis’s 44 percent. That was somewhat higher than the 52-53 percent edge to Mr. Bush predicted by many pre-election polls. Reports on Wednesday morning indicated that the margin had narrowed to 54 percent for Mr. Bush and 46 percent for Mr. Dukakis. The race was over, however, by 11 p.m. Tuesday, when Mr. Bush had won the popular vote in enough states to put him over the 270 electoral college total needed for election. At about that time, Mr. Dukakis conceded the election to Mr. Bush. A referendum to allow pari-mutuel wagering on horseracing in Virginia also passed easily in Rappahannock, with the totals running 59 percent in favor and 41 percent of voters opposed. That represented an additional four-point margin over the results from the lottery Unofficial Rappahannock County results U.S. President, Vice President* U. S. Senate U. S.

Across the Commonwealth, 56 percent of voters backed the pari-mutuel referendum. Most of the opposition to the question came.in the traditionally more conservative southwestern part of the state, where opponents outpolled supporters. Virginia becomes the 42nd state to approve parimutuel wagering. Twenty-seven of those states actually have race tracks. The referendum, however, merely creates a state racing commission and makes it legal for localities to consider racing ventures. Each city, town or county must still vote to approve any proposal for a race track in a specific place. Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr., who was unopposed in his bid for a third term in the U.S. Congress, received 1,835 votes across the county. According to George White, Rep. Slaughter’s campaign manager, complete results ofvthe 7th District con•Sr gressional race were not available at press time Wednesday. Running tallies were not being kept by the wire services on uncontested races, he explained. Mr. White said that Mr. Slaughter “is running well ahead of our projections, and well ahead of his finishes in 1984 and 1986.” Mr. White said his estimate had the Culpeper native receiving 33 percent more votes than he polled in 1984, and better than 100 percent above the total he received in 1986 when he was also unopposed for reelection. “We are very pleased with the partial results so far,” Mr. White said Wednesday morning. “In an uncontested race, many people often don’t bother to vote." He called the results a vote of confidence by 7th District residents in the representation provided by Mr. Slaughter. In Maryland, voters overwhelmingly favored a proposal which would require handguns to be approved by a state board before being sold in the state. The National Rifle Association was the chief opponent of the measure, and spearheaded a $4 million campaign to defeat the law. Voters approved the measure, 58 to 42 percent. Without short-term loan, county will be overdrawn County Treasurer Frances Foster sounded the fiscal alarm at Monday’s board meeting, and the board of supervisors responded by authorizing short-term indebtedness should a loan be necessary to meet the county’s payroll and pay the county’s bills. “We need money! We’re running out of money!” Mrs. Foster announced, reporting that with the $80,274 in tax payments received last week, funds on hand total $168,004. On the debit side of the ledger, bills to be paid with approval of accounts at Monday’s board meeting amount to $220,000, and the school board will write an additional $75,193 worth of checks drawn on the general fund at its meeting on Tuesday night, she told the supervisors. That works out to a deficit of $127,189 on Wednesday. “We need to borrow some money,” Mrs. Foster concluded. “I think we should slow checks before we borrow money,” countered John McCarthy. The county administrator pointed out that the treasurer’s office has received $80,000 in the last seven days and should get in at least that much or more next week as the Dec. 10 deadline for paying local taxes draws nearer. But there was no response to his suggestion from the four supervisors at the table. (Nelson Lane was absent from Monday’s meeting, the board’s regular monthly session for November.) And Mrs. Foster noted that with offices closed Tuesday for Election Day and Friday for Veterans Day, the amount received and credited to the county’s account this week would be substantially less than $80,000. “The bank (Rappahannock National Bank) will give us 9.0 or 9.5 percent daily rate (in interest),” she added. To supervisor Mike Massie’s contention that the board should accept the blame for the county’s embarassing financial state, the county administrator said: “It’s a cash flow problem. . .We could have added 20 cents to the tax rate (in July when the budget for 198889 was adopted) and we’d still be in the same fix.” Rappahannock’s general fund will have enough money to meet expenses and rebuild the surplus to the generally accepted 5-percent-of-the-budget level as soon as people pay their real estate and property taxes, he said. “It’s all going to the landfill," Mrs. Foster noted. Mr. McCarthy agreed that landfill expenses have created the cash flow problem. Bills from the engineering firm that designed the landfill, the contracting firm that built the landfill, the company installing the landfill liner and other expenses involved with handling Rappahannock’s trash have all been paid in the last two months, Mr. McCarthy said. Chairman Hubert Uilkey suggested that the treasurer be given authority to borrow money “until we get over this little bit of a crunch here." While not objecting to a loan as a way out of the fiscal crisis, supervisor Ellis Bingham maintained that Rappahannock National See LOAN, p. 16 Free shopping offered for the county's needy Washington’s Thrift Shop is closing. The shop, operated by the Washington VFD Ladies’ Auxiliary, must move from its quarters in the Town Hall. That request came from the town council, which has been told it cannot get fire insurance on the building until the thrift shop’s inventory is removed. The council has also made plans to renovate the building and needs the space cleared so that work can be done. In the short term, the council has agreed to allow the county’s Golden Key Performance Company rent the building. The group, which includes members of Trapezoid as well as other performers, agreed to the interim lease arrangement until the council decides what will be done with the building. It will also allow the town to begin repairs on the building which, according to Mayor Dean Morehouse, are necessary if the building is to be saved. As part of the agreement between the council and the ladies’ auxiliary, the shop’s inventory has been purchased for $1,000. That suggestion was made by Mayor Morehouse during October’s council meeting, and on Monday he confirmed that the deal has been finalized. The thrift shop will be open for one last weekend, Mr. Morehouse added. Residents of Rappahannock County who have a need for clothing or other items are invited to come to the shop and pick out what they need. There will be no charge for the items. According to council member Nan Thomasson, who is coordinating the volunteer cleanup, the shop will be open Friday, Nov. 11, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. On Saturday and Sunday, volunteers will be at the shop packing the goods into boxes. “They can come on Saturday or Sunday, but they won’t have the selection that they might find if they come on Friday,” Mrs. Thomasson said. “We want the county’s residents to have first choice of these goods,” Mr. Morehouse added. “Charity begins at home — these items were generated by the comSee THRIFT, p. 15 Board renews clamor for reopening of Route 17 “They have a lot of votes and a lot of loud voices in Fauquier, so we’ve got to speak all the louder to be heard," maintained county administrator John McCarthy, as Rappahannock’s board of supervisors adopted on Monday a strongly-worded resolution calling for the reopening of Route 17 to tractor trailers as soon as improvements to the eight-mile section of highway between Warrenton and Interstate 66 is completed. \ Following a series of accidents and fatalities, Route 17 in Fauquier County was closed to big trucks in November 1984. The action brought more tractor trailers onto Route 522 in Rappahannock County, as drivers who formerly used Route 17 detoured over the mountains at Chester Gap, down the winding, two-lane to Route 211 at Massie’s Comer and from there to Warrenton or Culpeper. With the increased truck traffic came increased accidents and fatalities in Rappahannock County, prompting the supervisors here to petition for a similar closure of Route 522. But what was afforded in the interests of safety to Fauquier County by the transportation board was denied to Rappahannock. However, the department of transportation did offer assurance that the highway "... we've got to speak alj the louder to be heard." — John McCarthy County Administrator through Fauquier would be reopened as soon as possible. To Rappahannock’s board, that meant as soon as the dual-laning is completed to 1-66, which should happen this winter, according to Mr. McCarthy. But he noted that the mayor of Warrenton and other officials are now insisting the truck ban on Route 17 should be continued until construction completion of the Route 29 spur which will divert traffic around the town. And with the Route 29 project mired in environmental questions, it may not be completed for some time. “Rappahannock has taken more than its share of the burden for more than its share of time,” Mr. McCarthy said. However, that may not be the position of the trans portation board, which has not yet ruled on the question of when the truck ban will be lifted, he reminded the supervisors. “We can’t assume they’re going to do the right thing and open it back up (when the Route 17 work is done).” Unfortunately, politics may play a part in this decision, he added, and in any political considerations, Rappahannock has less sway than Fauquier County, which has at least five times as many voters. “When Route 17 (to 1-66) is opened to traffic, it should be opened to trucks,” said supervisor Charles Estes. “That’s what we should push for.” By unanimous vote, the board adopted a resolution which contends that doing otherwise would be a “breach of faith” with the citizens of Rappahannock who have faced serious safety threats from increased tractor trailer traffic on Route 522. The resolution notes that only 3.6 miles of the highway’s 27.8-mile stretch in Rappahannock is dual-laned and that the narrow, two-lane road passes through six residential communities within the county’s boundaries.

Preparing for winter The weather may still be too warm to think about heating costs, but it is a good time to search for ways to prepare a house for the winter. Be sure to check the insulation. Inadequate or aged insulation may need to be replaced or added to. Consider installing storm windows and doors. If it isn’t possible to add conventional storm windows, put plastic over the inside of the windows. In some cases a custom made storm door can be placed on the inside of the existing door. Weatherstrip around doors and windows. Caulk any places around window’ and door frames where they may lose heat. On older homes, check for leaks around wall and floor joints.

Crane crashes, driver hurt ^ * ciuiajrivcuiici man was a amitted to Warren Memorial Hospital on Nov. 2 after the construction crane he was driving crashed on the Hume Road in northwestern Rappahannock County. According to Trooper C. A. Moore, James Tracey of Carlisle, Pa., was driving a 1969 Warner Swasey 25-ton crane east on Route 635, about .8 mile east of Route 522. The crane stalled near the crest of a hill, and rolled backward down the hill, striking a 1985 Ford dump truck owned by Rappawan Construction Co. of Front Royal. After glancing off the front of the dump truck, the crane veered off the left side of the dirt road and struck two trees. That impact sheared the cab off the front of the crane, with Mr. Tracey still inside. The cab fell to the ground but the crane continued down the hill, back across the road and off the right shoulder, coming to rest on top of a stone wall. Mr. Tracey was taken to Warren Memorial Hospital by the Chester Gap Rescue Squad. He was admitted with leg and internal injuries. Trooper Moore said that a member of the state police truck safety team came to the accident scene, but that the crane’s brakes had already been disconnected so that it could be towed back to the company’s headquarters. Because of that, he said, the investigator could not determine if the crane’s brakes were properly adjusted. No charges were placed in the accident. Trooper Moore estimated damage to the crane, which is owned by Valley Crane and Rigging of Fishersville, at $15,000. He said the dump truck sustained about $1,500 damage. The trooper said that the accident, which happened about 10 a.m., snarled traffic on the narrow dirt road for most of the day as the huge tow truck maneuvered the crane into position to be towed away. Retail losses may mean early holiday bargains WILLIAMSBURG - Retail stores in Virginia posted a loss in September when compared with last year, which could mean earlier and bigger bargains for Christmas shoppers, according to the latest Virginia Business Report from the College of William and Mary. “Our sample of retail stores reported 114 percent lower sales per store, demonstrating again that the number of retail suppliers has outgrown consumer demand in some parts of Virginia,” said Roy L. Pearson, director of the Bureau of Business Research and editor of the report. Even though total retail sales rose last month, the story is quite different for individual merchants, said Mr. Pearson. “Many types of merchants in many areas are experiencing lower volumes per establishment than at this time last year,” Mr. Pearson said. “That situation suggests retailers may offer more sales early in the Christmas season with more substantial discounts than usual.” Although retail sales per store were down, the state continued to see a strong building market in September. Building permits, in Virginia soared, the bureau found. The 17 ur ban areas surveyed for the report posted a 56.8 percent rise during the month, led by a “spectacular” increase in Richmond, said Mr. Pearson. In all, 11 of the 17 areas had a rise in the dollar amounts of building permits. “Such huge monthly jumps in permits are rare, though, and will be rarer still in the coming months as Virginia’s general economic growth follows a more moderate course,” said Mr. Pearson. While home sales rose, car registrations went down 12 percent, the fourth consecutive monthly slide. New car sales for the first three quarters of 1988 are even with 1987 and down from 1986. Overall, the first three quarters of 1988 show good growth, although the rate of growth is “gently decelerating,” said Mr. Pearson. Building permits during the nine months exceeded 1987 levels by 13 percent, sustaining Virginia’s construction boom and pushing construction jobs to all-time record highs. Payroll job growth has been a strong 4.2 percent through August, about one-half percentage point below last year’s gain. With that in mind, Mr. Pearson said the state “will finish 1988 in good economic health." CCLC receives coveted national accreditation i he letter came last weeK. It looked ordinary enough but for the significance of the news it carried to the Child Care and Learning Center, the envelope should have been bright red and studded with stars. It was the announcement that the center had passed all its tests and evaluations and is now accredited by the National Academy of Early Childhood Programs. “Everybody wanted to bounce up and down and celebrate,” said Deborah Flinchum, the center’s program director who worked steadily on the application from last November, when classroom observations began, through mid-May, when the required 77-page application was submitted to the Academy. The Child Care and Learning Center is only the 40th Virginia facility offering day care, preschool, and before- and after-school programs to win NAECP accreditation. The majority are concentrated in Northern Virginia and Tidewater, and the nearest to CCLC in distance are in Manassas and Charlottesville. None are found in rural communities comparable in size and development to Rappahannock County and Washington, Va. “We’re excited and gratified,” said CCLC director Irene Clouse. “But being familiar with licensing and accreditation standards, I’m not suprised that the center received the accreditation. I would have been suprised if we didn’t get it!” The Academy is sponsored by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, the nation’s oldest and largest association of early childhood professionals, and its standards were developed over a three-year period with input from approximately 200 educators and administrators from around the country. The accreditation process is rigorous. The first stage of self-study began last fall with the classroom observations, conducted in turn by the teachers and Mrs. Flinchum, who then compared notes and condensed findings for a single summary. Parents were asked to complete lengthy questionaires, CCLC administrators filed reports and teachers evaluated themselves and their peers, all in line with the detailed instructions set out in the 220-page accreditation manual. “We compiled all that information and measured our programs against the Academy’s standards, and then we looked at our weak areas as judged by their standards,” explained Mrs. Flinchum. “We wrote plans for improvement for •ach teacher, addressing both their classroom programs and their training.” Under Academy standards, all teachers at a member day care center must have a degree in early childhood development or be working towards such a degree, either by taking college courses or in-service What is a 'developmental ly appropriate curriculum'? Ask an early childhood development specialist to explain what is meant by a developmental^ appropriate curriculum, and you’re liable to get an earful of educational jargon in reply. But this verse by Andrea Kramer explains it in terms that everyone can understand. And according to program chairman Deborah Flinchum, learning by playing is exactly how the program works at the Child Care and Learning Center. The little girl went off to pre-school And she learned that painting is fun. And when you paint yellow on top of blue, you get green. And she learned what wondrous magic there is in holding a paintbrush over an empty piece of paper. Oh, that little girl learned so many things! That when you hit someone, she hurts, But that you can be friends again. That when there is a big mess, you have to help clean it up, But that it feels good to finish cleaning. That when a teacher reads a story and you interrupt a lot, the other kids can't hear. But that when the other kids interrupt, you can't hear either. That there is magic in a housekeeping center, where you can he so many different people, But that there is satisfaction in being yourself, too. She learned, that little girl, To use words instead of fists. To try new activities. To eat new foods. To be part of a group of kids. And to be off alone, sometimes, too. To participate. And to ivatch. She strengthened her muscles. Her mind, Her ability to express her feelings, Her ability to control these feelings, Her pride in herself. One day a visitor came to the school And after spending the morning there, Remarked. . . “But all they ever do is play. They aren't learning anything.” programs. “Our teachers are experienced, and we’ve provided training for them,” Mrs. Flinchum said, adding, however, that this doesn’t meet the Academy’s criteria. So individual improvement plans were developed for every member of the center’s instructional staff, with many entering a two-year program for a child development associate degree offered by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. The program includes classroom “field work,” courses at Lord Fairfax or another nearby community college, and observation by a council representative. “After we felt we’d made signify cant improvement, we re-evaluated ourselves,” Mrs. Flinchum continued. The final test was a day-long visit in July by a NAECP representative who determined whether the on-paper assessment by CCLC staff accurately reflected what goes on at the center. Then came the wait for the grade to be posted. “I was really anxious,” Mrs. Flinchum acknowledged, adding that she worried particularly over whether the lack of degrees would rule out accreditation. But the anxiety was eased with the assurances from a state day care licensing agent who predicted that the center would certainly win the Academy’s endorsement, and then the letter arrived with the formal award. But acceptance into NAEYC ranks doesn’t imply a 100 percent score on the Academy’s standards. “It doesn’t mean we’re perfect,” Mrs. Flinchum emphasized. “They sent a list of suggestions along with the accreditation, and we’ve already started working on those,” she said, citing as an example the after-school program for older children which has just been renamed and reorganized under a dynamic new teacher, Jeanne Berta. “We have to submit an annual report on the progress we’ve made toward all their suggestions, and every three years we must go through the whole self-study and observation again,” Mrs. Flinchum said. With most of (’CLC’s classes already at or near capacity, why spend the time and energy on accreditation? “We’re working on a developmentally appropriate program for preschool children. It’s not an academic program,” Mrs. Flinchum explained. “We’re getting children ready for what they will be doing in kindergarten. But we are not doing the same work they’ll be doing then.” Take reading readiness as an example. At CCLC, it means reading to children, exposing them to books in a way that makes them eager to read. It does not mean memorizing the alphabet song. Children aren’t expected to learn by rote but rather to work with creative ideas and work cooperatively with each other, she noted. Many people in the community don’t understand this approach. That’s where the accrediation will help,” Mrs. Flinchum continued. “It’s evidence that we provide high quality day care. The NAECP has identified our curriculum as being the best type of curriculum for young children. This national association is saying, This is the right way to go.”’ “Most parents want to find the highest quality program for their young children, but few parents know how to assess whether a program meets more than just the minimum standards required by state licensing,” said Dr. Marilyn Smith, executive director of the National Association for the Education of Young Children. “Accreditation helps answer the question, ‘What is a quality day care program?’ “Accreditation is not meant to replace parents’ on-site visits to centers as a means of selecting the program that best meets their child’s needs, but accreditation does help point out to parents the varied components that should be present in a quality program,” she explained.

For example, your land, location or house may be so unique that the use of comparable sales for pricing is non-existent. In such a case, it might not be a bad idea to have an official appraisal, (conducted by a professional appraiser) in your back pocket as additional price-setting data. Cost-wise, you should agree in advance exactly how thorough an appraisal you need. Some reports run for 30 pages, including photographs of the neighborhood and floor plans of each room. Explain that a simple letter report will be sufficient, and that you are simply seeking an estimate of fair market value. An appraisal can sometimes be a valuable bargaining tool during negotiations. Although it is simply an estimate—albeit an informed, skilled one—the buyer will usually accept it as impartial proof of vaI lue.

Let's hold on to our old-fashioned elections One of these years, | the mechanical voting ' machines, all polished gray with their imper. sonal privacy curtains, will reach Rappahannock. Or even worse, we’ll cast our ballots on computers, punching a card to make , our choices. According to an article in The Sew- Yorker (Nov. 7), only one-third of the electorate still votes on mechanical voting machines. The majority of votes, 55 percent this year, will be cast electronically — that is, by computer. Rappahannock County is part of the 11 percent of the country — one voter in nine, according to The New Yorker — where a voter “still marks the old-fashioned paper ballot that is counted by hand.” Let's hope progress doesn’t reach us anytime soon. There’s something about walking into the Mount Lebanon Baptist Church, giving the election officers my name and being issued paper ballots to mark my vote. In Washington, a cardboard packing crate bearing the Westinghouse logo ensured privacy. In Scrabble, it was a large, unidentified piece of cardboard which separated the two voting “booths.” As voting booths they aren’t much, only a plain wooden podium. There’s a pencil attached with a piece of string — lest a voter take it home as a souvenir, I suppose. It may be only an illusion, but I’ve still got the feeling that in Rappahannock County my vote counts. Don’t get me wrong — my choice doesn’t always win. As a matter of fact, since I first began voting 15 years ago I’ve probably backed more losers than winners. But Election Day in Rappahannock County evokes feelings that I’m not sure are still found in the polling places in urban areas. The election officials who work at the Scrabble precinct are my neighbors. Most of the time I don’t have to tell them my name. They recognize most everyone who votes there. And the other voters say hello, too. When local races are on the ballot, the candidates can usually be found outside in the parking lot, trading good-natured jibes with the voters as they enter. Seldom is there a cross word exchanged. Even the verbal parlays and campaign rhetoric are delivered with a smile — instead of a pitchfork in the back. 1 think that these are scenes which have probably long since faded from the precincts in the sprawling suburbs. When I voted at Scrabble early Tuesday morning, I beat even the partisan boosters to the polling place. There was not a banner or poster to be found. I was almost disappointed not to find anyone attempting a last-minute pitch for their chosen candidate. Later, the “Dukakis/Bentsen,” “Bush/Quayle,” “Dawkins,” “Robb,” and “Slaughter” banners and posters From my choir. . . by Lou Hotter were placed dutifully in front of the county courthouse in Washington, but still the entire scene was subdued. There’s another wonderful election tradition in Rappahannock, one that doesn’t take place until the polls close. The courthouse becomes an informal election return headquarters for the political junkies from both parties, as well as other interested onlookers. The group generally waits for the results from the county’s six precincts in the hall outside registrar Ruth Kilby’s office. There are a couple of wooden chairs brought from across the hall in the magistrate’s office, but you’d better get there pretty early to claim one of them. Most members of the group don’t leave until the last returns are counted. Usually that’s at a reasonable hour, but last year it was after midnight before the race for supervisor from Hampton District was decided. There are usually Republicans and Democrats, liberals and conservatives, people of all political stripes who gather at the courthouse on election night. But the atmosphere is almost always friendly, even when one candidate is certified as the winner and others become the disappointed losers. People here seem to remember that they are neighbors first and political candidates second. Win or lose, they will see the person who ran against them at the post office or in the bank next week. This year we didn’t have any local elections on the ballot. I think that’s too bad. The kind of campaign which is waged in this county would have been a refreshing change from the ones we’ve been treated to this fall. The national campaign was debated in our county, in this newspaper, by a representative from each party. Lee Bird and John Marocchi traded honest differences — without a mean word between the two. They presented choices and tried to explain what their respective parties stand for. I respect them both for the contribution that they made and the level to which they elevated the debate between their parties. I think the big-time politicians could learn something from our “oldfashioned paper ballot” elections. I think that, just maybe, we’ve still got a spirit, or a respect for the other guy, that they have lost. I wish they would come here and let us help them find it.

Letters to the editor A tradition continues To the editor: An Open Letter to the Citizens of Rappahannock County: For 17 years, under the expert guidance of Lynne Baines, the seventh grade has gone on a field trip to Williamsburg. This trip started out years ago as a two-day, one-night trip and has progressed to a four-day, threenight trip. It would be fair to say that a good percentage of the population of this county has gone on this trip, either as a student or as a chaperone. Last year Mrs. Baines left Rappahannock County. She and her husband, Virginia State Trooper Rufus Baines relocated to the Tidewater, and the field trip was placed in my hands, hands, that I hope can do the job as well as Mrs. Baines. As with many things, inflation has hit hard and a trip that, years ago, cost only a few thousand dollars now costs a considerable sum more. Nevertheless, each student, regardless of economic conditions, has the opportunity to go on the trip. For this we have a whole list of people to whom we owe thanks. That in fact is what this letter is about, and if I forget some of you, please forgive me. The individual citizens of Rappahannock should be on the top of a very long list as they have endured many a fund-raiser (still more to come), from pizza to spaghetti dinners. The various service clubs in the county, such as: the Lions, the P.T.A. and the Ruritans, who donate each year’ to the trip as well as the many businesses in the county who donate both money and goods. Each of these deserves a very hearty thanks, and of course the teachers, administrators and the members of the Rappahannock County Board of Education. To each and every one of you, I would like to say thank you very much. Without your help, I am not sure I would be able to do this job. There are a few others I would like to thank, Mr. J. Roszak and Mrs. E. Katz, my fellow seventh-grade teachers who put up with me and my continuous fund-raising efforts^ Without their support I am %re there could not be a trip. Finally, I would like to thank the parents of this year’s seventh-grade class, whose help I consider invaluable, especially Mrs. Nancy Freeman and Mrs. Maggie Rogers. I plan on keeping this seventh-grade tradition an ongoing affair with the help of all in the county and I believe that it can be done. See you all on Dec. 8 for our spaghetti dinner. P. S.: I guess I also should give a special thanks to my wife Lois and daughter Emily for the time that they allow me to spend on the trip and not with them. ARTHUR M. NEUFELD . Washington Thrift shop says 'thanks' To the editor: To our Thrift Shop supporters in Rappahannock County, I would like to thank the Town Council for letting us use the Town Hall as a Thrift Shop for these past years. Thanks for the support from our people who gave items to our shop so we could sell to the local people at a fair price in return for money for our Fire and Rescue Departments. In our years at the Town Hall we have made over $15,000. Thanks to all our good and satisfied customers who have shopped with us during the years. When families were burned out of their homes and welfare recipients needed clothes or other items, we were always willing to help them. This shop has really helped a lot of folks in more ways than one. I feel sure it will be missed, but as of now we are without a place to have a Thrift Shop. If anyone has a good place that we could use as a Thrift Shop, we would consider it — but we can’t afford to pay rent. A special thanks to our faithful volunteer workers who have helped at the shop during the years at the Town Hall: Mrs. Mary E. Burke, Mrs. Annie Hawkins, Mrs. Charlie Burke, Mrs. Janie Pullen, Mrs. Alice Beahm, Mrs. Jean Alther and Mrs. Mae Smoot. I hope I didn’t leave out anyone; if I did — I didn’t mean to because I appreciate all the help from everyone. I would like to leave a little thought with you, “The community that works together stays together.” MRS. RUTH CLARK President, Washington Volunteer Fire Department Ladies’ Auxiliary Recycling effort grows To the editor: I would like to thank all those who participated in the second Community Recycling Day held on Oct. 5 at the county park. A total of approximately 1,000 pounds of glass (versus 300 pounds collected at the first recycling Saturday), 40 pounds of aluminum (versus 20 pounds) and one ton of newsprint (versus 500 pounds) were collected. Totals for other materials collected are not yet available. Chuck Stinnett, president of Piedmont Recycling, will be at the Rec Center again on Saturday, Nov. 19, from 9-11 a.m. only, for the third Community Recycling Day. In addition to clear, amber and green glass, aluminum cans and newspapers, he will also accept plastics. Only the HDPE-type plastic will be collected. These include milk and juice jugs, bleach bottles, car oil containers, six-pack rings and dish detergent bottles. Any other plastics will not be accepted at this time. He will contii^ (to take magazines and catalogues, but please bundle the^} separately from newspapers, Using only natural fiber twine or string (no stockings!) or paper bags for both items. He will no longer accept tin or steel food cans. Aluminum and glass should be rinsed. Labels are okay. Glass must be separated according to color. Other types of aluminum such as clean foil and pie pans are also acceptable as are corrogated cardboard boxes. Please begin saving these items! Divise a system that works best for you. Remember, Recycling Day is the third Saturday of each month. Anyone with questions or suggestions please call 675-3810. Thank you for your support. NINA STAMER Litter Coordinator Return the pumpkin man or face his vengeance To the editor: Now that Halloween is over, I am hoping that someone has the decency to return our pumpkin man. For the past three Halloweens he has been stationed on our fence post and greeted travelers who frequent Route 647. Many of these people have told me how they and/or their children looked forward to watching for the pumpkin man as they passed by our entrance to our property. Now he exists no more. Of course, maybe I should have known that this 5-foot tall, orange fabric jack-o-lantem with long spindly legs and arms could possibly be stolen as that would fit into the events that have happened since we first started to improve our property six years ago. After two chain saws and firewood were stolen, we locked a chain across our driveway. Then someone cut the lock and stole the chain. During the weekend of Mother’s Day, 1987, someone removed two azalea bushes from our entrance way. Then this year, during the Father’s Day weekend, someone took five evergreen shrubs. (Someone does not know the true meaning of giving!) And now we face the loss of our dear pumpkin man. I did not report this theft to the Sheriffs Department as this homemade decoration was of very little monetary value and I had hoped he would be returned. Maybe I had better warn the thief of another incident surrounding the “life and times of the pumpkin man!” One night when I was taking a moonlight stroll, I neared the place where the pumpkin man perched. Then without warning, a large lightning bolt erupted from the full orange moon and pierced the body of the pumpkin man. Immediately he shook like a dog coming in from a drenching downpour! He scratched his nose, and looking up, he waved to me. It was obvious I stood in awesome wonder, but he told me not to be afraid. He knew that my family and I loved him and he loved us too, as long as we took care of him. However, he explained that if ever anyone did any misdeed to him he would retaliate in one of two ways, one being that during a full moon he could and would escape from whatever storage area in which he was placed. He would then seek out the culprit to seek revenge by forcing this person to do the “pumpkin two-step.” This would worry even you if you had seen the wiry legs of the pumpkin man, plus he is very light on his feet. This forced dance routine would continue nonstop until sunrise. If this first form of punishment does not deter the thief, maybe the second will. Anyone causing ill fortune towards the pumpkin man will break out with large orange pimples. These start on the nose and spread daily. Anyhow, this pumpkin dermatitis will clear only when the pumpkin man is returned, but there may be a small pumpkin-shaped birthmark left where only you or your doctor will see it. Of course, some of you may vievO' this as a “believe it or not” type story, but if you have the pumpkin man, you’d better return him for your own well-being. No questions, legal ramifications, stone throwing, etc. will take place. Just leave him inside our gate and run for your life. LINDA WELK Flint Hill

Op-Ed Reflections along the country's waste stream BY DAVID CHUSE Rappahannock New* C ontributing Writer “Viewpoints” is presented as a contribution to the public dialogue on topics of general interest by the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection. Readers are encouraged to respond to the opinions expressed in “Viewpoints.” Once again, certain people have been observed saving and sorting old newspapers, magazines, bottles, jars, aluminum cans and pie tins in their kitchens and cellars and garages. Has some strange cult moved into the county? Not exactly. Recycling is back, and Rappahannock, like other rural and urban communities all over the country, is getting enthused! 1 Opinion I said not exactly because that sort of depends on who you talk to. Recycling always was a great idea, but now the economics and the politics are right for it. Markets for secondary materials are developing, and recycling is now looked upon as a legitimate business option. The cost of waste disposal by traditional methods has escalated to the point that previously indifferent local officials all over are positively enthused about this new way to trim the budget. But even before then, it was right. Making paper and cans and bottles with recycled materials saves energy, is cheaper and reduces manufacturing pollution. It . __ conserves natural resources, like trees. And now, we can begin to recycle some plastic (HDPE or high density polyethylene) here in Rappahannock, It’s fascinating. HDPE is now recycled to make flower pots, drainage pipe, plastic lumber and bins for curbside recycling among other things. The more you get into trash, the more potential there is. That’s why it’s hard to understand the jokes and negative reactions, even from family •* members. A friend of mine who is an expert on what to do with garbage ' — she’s been to Eurofie tb study their systems and written reports, everything — was actually asked on a D. C. radio talk show, “What’s a nice girl like you doing mixed up with garbage?” They just don’t understand. Actually, now I’m into preventing trash. Read on. “Recycling” is the term we use most often for a better way to handle our trash than burying it or burning it. But recycling is itself part of a larger effort to deal with solid waste, called waste minimization or waste reduction. Waste minimization includes strategies for prevention and recovery of waste materials, and works in three ways with the vast continuum of garbage that we who are hip ■ about‘ these things refer to, somewhat poetically, as the waste stream: 1) source reduction (or waste prevention): eliminating the production or creation of wastes at the front end; 2) making the waste stream more recyclable, or in some cases, biodegradable; 3) recycling, ; reusing, repairing and composting : wastes. Thus the ardent individual, frustrated about the course of world events and the megaproblems facing the planet, can seize the reins of destiny and have a real impact on the environment by doing such things as follow herewith: Bay program signup begins Sign-up for the 1989 Virginia Agriculture BMP Cost Share Program (Chesapeake Bay Program) will be held through Jan. 15, 1989 in County ASCS Offices. For more details, please contact the Culpeper Soil & Water Conservation District office serving your county. In Orange, 672-1523; Madison & Greene, 9484490; Culpeper and Rappahannock, 825-8591. The Virginia Agriculture Cost Share Program is designed to improve water quality in state streams, rivers and the Chesapeake Bay. Cost share incentive programs are available to encourage farmers and landowners to apply needed v .. Best Management Practices (BMPs) to their land to better control sedi,• ment and nutrient losses into local streams. Most of the practices available for cost share in 1988 will be offered . again this year. A new practice has been added to , the 1989 program, Buffer Stripcrop, P>ng. What To Do Considering the negative impacts on the environment, avoid buying things in plastic containers whenever possible. If you know you can recycle it, okay, maybe. Most plastic packaging is designed to be thrown away and becomes litter, takes up valuable landfill space or releases toxic gases when incinerated. Something else to think about: five of the top six chemicals whose production generates the most total hazardous waste, says an EPA study, are chemicals commonly used by the plastics industry. (We call that a front-end problem.) Try even harder not to buy or use foam plastics like styrofoam. The now well-known chlorofluorocarbons used in most of this product is killing off the ozone layer — which we are going to miss very much if it goes. Be nice, but complain to restaurants and supermarket managers and other outlets about packaging. Thirty to 40 percent of the waste stream is simply packaging, and many other products have too much of it or use plastic when another material would do. Praise store managers for bulk food sales. Avoid disposables. (Now that’s a big order!) Tell store managers what you want; maybe they will go along with you. Occasionally take time to write to companies whose products and packaging need improving; tell them you care. It all adds up. Take your kids out in the back and tell them you are going to play a •V ie wpoint s new fun game called making a compost pile. Use this for table scraps (if you are throwing that away), leaves, clippings, weeds, etc. Read an article on how to layer the pile correctly. Then teach a friend who lives in the city how to do it too (unless he or she lives in an upstairs apartment). Think about buying things that last longer. That’s waste prevention. Cheap is not always great. Things of substance that you buy should be repairable, too. Who would have thought that small TVs and radio/recorders of all sizes were disposable items? (Ask how much they cost to repair.) Of course, buy things that come in recyclable containers, but even better is if you live in a place like Rappahannock: you can buy sodas in returnable bottles which is better than recycling the glass, and it’s the lowest price for you. Believe me, taking those bottles back to the store makes you feel good; it makes up for something else you might have done. (Last time I checked, you cannot even find returnable bottles in Richmond or most other places. Be thankful.) See, I told you this was going to change your life. One other thing. This is another category, called hazardous waste. You don’t have to live in a place like Love Canal to find it. Try paint thinner or furniture polishes, or the stuff in spray cans that will remove unwanted bugs from your life. Try garden chemicals. Better yet, don’t try any of them, or as few as possible. What we want is to keep these things out of the landfill. Even superstyle landfills like our new one may leak someday, and then there goes the ground water. You may not be here but your grandchildren will have to drink it. Also what we want is not to encourage the people who make these things, so why not become an organic gardener. And consider not spraying that fly in the kitchen where your kid is making a peanut butter sandwich. Toxic stuff that you have to buy should be purchased in appropriately modest quantities so as not to have any left over that someone will want to throw away some day. As for that old can of DDT or whatever else you’ve got in the toolshed, just keep it dry and safe for now. There are not many affordable ways to responsibly deal with these things once they have been created, but the future will probably hold more options for you as more communities are holding toxic materials cleanup days. A parting shot: tell your state political representatives that you support legislation that will encourage beverage container recycling, and “recycle first” legislation (mandating recycling programs before incineration can be introduced). Bills to institute both of these approaches will likely be introduced into the 1989 General Assembly. Actually, we’re just getting started here. Waste is, well it’s life. You know what I mean? Where does everything go, eventually? How many people think of that? We haven’t even talked about education yet, or what to do about those garbage dumpsters. . .

John W. McCarthy County Administrator RANCE LEE SPELLMAN October 29,1946 - November 9,1982 On this sixth anniversary of the death of Points of View’s farm manager, we have learned of a wonderful remembrance of Ranee in a distant city. During August, September and October, hundreds of Philadelphians flocked to an outdoor art exhibit where they saw a huge sculpture named Spellman. It was one of 25 sculptures chosen from 332 entries for this year’s show, entitled “Altered Sites”. The annual show has become one of Philadelphia’s major summer art events and is held in Fairmont Park’s arboretum. Spell man’s creator, Fritz Dietel, knew Ranee only briefly in the year before his death. He represented the Dietel family, then newly moved to Rappahannock County at Ranee’s funeral. Later, Fritz completed his art education and became a full-time sculptor living in Philadelphia. The massive (10 feet tall by 12 feet wide by 16 feet long) work is made of painted wood constructed into two interlocking, pleated, curved walls in the shape of a split “S”. The colors, in high gloss enamel, range from blacks and purples to reds and brilliant yellow and whites; the pleats are sharply defined. Fritz Dietel’s Spellman Spellman is set in a grove of trees and deep green foliage — a “sharp contrast to its crisp, mechanical man-made form”, Fritz told a Philadelphia reporter. The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that "...Dietel has chosen another option, a structure totaly extrinsic to nature that established an ahernative, albeit empathetic, environment.” And in “Art Matters”: “Spellman...is made of two sections of undulating wall that define but do not enclose the space between them. A seemingly simple architectural concept, it’s alive with changes of color and the surrounding view of the landscape as you proceed inside and outside the piece.” In a recent interview, Fritz described Spellman’s growth from sketches, and that as he saw “the relationships between inside and outside, the contrasting colors, the largeness of the work and its overwhelming, larger-than-life quality”, he was reminded of Ranee. His large, initial, sometimes intimidating presence was immediately contradicted by the “light, bubbly, joking inside,” Fritz explained. “You were drawn in, you were curious to see inside,” just as you are with Spellman, the art work. Even the pathos of Ranee’s death on his bulldozer is evoked, he said, with the sharply defined pleats reminiscent of a bulldozer’s treads. Ranee was, said Fritz, “someone you could not forget.” 1988 Ranee L. Spellman Memorial Award Cheryl Vann of Winchester received the third Spellman award from the Lord Fairfax Community College Educational Foundation.

Pumpkins a hit from soup to dessert BY SANDRA RICHARDSON Extension Agent. Home Economics To limit the glorious pumpkin to its traditional role in reigning Halloween jack-o-lantem or Thanksgiving Day pie is to miss an exciting range of delicious ways to use these golden treasures — in stews, soups, ice cream, for pumpkin souffles, breads, conserves and as giant or mini-servers to brighten holiday tables. Peter Pumpkin Eater came up with a unique use for the pumpkin shell. The Indians used the golden gourds, pulped and dried, as receptacles for water, corn, beans, feathers and the cotton down used in spinning. The early settlers found pumpkin shells handy as grain and seed holders. The pulp or meat of the pumpkin has been a source of food for many cultures. Nearly all the Indian tribes who befriended the Pilgrims planted pumpkins in their plats and cornfields. The settlers learned from the Indians how to bake, boil and fry the pulp, how to stew it with beans, peas and corn and how to make coarse pumpkin bread by adding commeal. Pumpkin soup is a natural to be serv ed in a large, hollow tureen or in smaller individual-sized natural bowls — it is spectacular to sit down to a holiday dinner with tiny pumpkins waiting at each place. The pulp can be scooped out and frozen for use again. A hint when buying: size and shape have little to do with pumpkin flavor, although the smaller ones offer a more tender pulp and less waste. As a bonus, pumpkins are an excellent source of vitamin A, and best of all, 100 grams of fresh pumpkin meat contain only 26 calories. To make a basic pumpkin puree, pop the entire, washed vegetable on a baking sheet into a 350-degree oven and bake until tender. The time for baking will vary, but generally a 3-pound pumpkin will take 1-1 hours. Cut the pumpkin in half, scoop out and discard the seeds and fibers, pull off the skin (or spoon out the flesh). Press the meat through the medium disc of a food mill into a bowl, or you may prefer to puree the meat in a food processor. If you prefer, you can cube, seed, and peel the pumpkin, c ook it for 1520 minutes in a vegetable steamer, then puree it. This method is faster, but results in a more liquid puree. A 3-pound pumpkin yields about three cups of puree. To freeze, let the puree cook, pack it into one-cup containers with 1/2-inch headspace, and freeze. We hope to tickle your palate with these recipes that use fresh pumpkin.

SATELLITE THE AREAS LEADER IN SALES AND SERVICE 636*1068 FRONT ROYAL Set sights now for hunting success BY AARON PASS Rappahannock News Contributing Writer Each year many hunters go into the woods as unprepared to kill anything as if they were carrying an unloaded gun. Due to the fact that they failed to sight in their rifles, they cheat themselves out of game and many lose the chance at “one-in-alifetime" trophies. There is nothing mysterious or difficult about sighting in a rifle. Greatly simplified, it is the process of adjusting the sights so that they are aligned on the same point where the rifle shoots the bullets. This is done by firing the rifle at a specific point to determine where the bullets are striking. Next, the sights are adjusted so that they are aligned on the bullet impact area. A very old, but apt description of a well-sighted rifle is one that “shoots where she looks. ’’ A good solid rest and some type of pad to fire the rifle from is important. A benehrest and sandbag arrangement is best, but a rolled up sleeping bag on a table or even on a car hood beats having nothing. Next, all it takes is time and a safe place to shoot. Your best bet is to contact a local gun club. Many of these host a “sighting-in” day for local hunters each fall. If you choose to free-lance on “open land,” make sure you have the landowner s permission and make doubly sure you have a safe backstop to stop your bullets. Ear and eye protection, in the form of ear plugs and shooting glasses, is highly recommended. If you are mounting a new scope, make sure the mounts and rings are correctly installed and tight. Degrease and seal the mount screws that go into the receiver with LocTite, shellac or clear fingernail polish. Do not seal the ring screws that hold the rings around your scope. If your rifle was sighted-in last season, you should still check it out before taking it afield this fall. Stocks have been known to warp, or the sights may have been knocked out of alignment during storage. Also check all screws in the stock and scope mount with a proper size screwdriver before you begin shooting. If you have carefully boresighted or used a collimator with a new rifle or scope, you can skip a preliminary shooting session at 25 yards to “get on paper.” Otherwise, getting close at short range is highly recommended since you could miss the entire target at longer ranges. Next, put a target at 100 yards, and fire three or four rounds off the bench. From the center of this group measure the distance both vertically and horizontally to the bull’s-eye. Now, adjust your sights accordingly, moving the rear sight or scope adjustments in the same direction you wish to move the group so that it will be on target. Hunting with a well-sighted rifle is basic to this season’s success. For no matter w’hat else happens, it will all come down to one shot and your ability to put it where it needs to go. Aaron Pass has written hundreds of articles about hunting, fishing and camping for newspapers and magazines. Recreational basketball This 3-on-3 tournament will include both women’s and men’s divisions and is recreational in nature. The tournament will be held from Dec. 1-Dec. 20 on Tuesdays and Thursdays at Marshall Annex from 7-10 p.m. It is for ages 18 and older with the number of teams limited, so make sure you get your team signed up by the registration deadline of Monday, Nov. 28.

School Students tour historic sites For three days last week, the sixth and seventh grade classes at Wakefield School in Huntly saw firsthand the sites of their history lessons, touring Valley Forge. Philadelphia, and “Pennsylvania Dutch" country. Valley Forge was the first stop. “The kids always enjoy tramping through Valley Forge in weather which reminds them of Washingtons stay." said Wakefield seventh grade teacher and acting headmistress Pamela Lynn. The second day saw the students and chaperones led by a costumed guide on a walking tour of Philadelphia. They visited Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, Congress Hall, Carpenter Hall, the Edgar Allen Poe House, Franklin Court, the Betsy Ross House, the Quaker Meeting House, and Society Hill. Before returning home, the group traveled through “Pennsylvania Dutch" Country, learning of some of the contributions of German immigrants to the United States. Some other Wakefield School trips planned are a fourth and fifth grade three-day trip to Williamsburg and Jamestown, a prep school spring break tour of Spain, and the February Ski Week in Colorado.

Moderator Laurie Marshall will question Paul Perrot, director of the Virginia Museum in Richmond; Marie Martin, photo gallery owner; and Nancy Drysdale and Anslie Wallace, both D.C. art gallery owners specializing in contemporary art. According to Mrs. Marshall, panelists will discuss the traits that distinguish both commercially successful and critically acclaimed artists. They’ll explain the difference between museums and galleries and their relationship to each other. They’ll give tips on surmounting difficulties all artists encounter, and explain differences in exhibiting sculpture, photography and painting. Artists, and those interested in art, will find the panel discussion an opportunity to learn about the complicated circumstances behind what art gets exhibited, bought and sold. Anyone interested is invited to attend the panel at 7:30 p.m. at the Middle Street Gallery in Washington. For information, call Sallv Nash at 987-8451.

Reading to children speeds their learning RADFORD - Children can learn to read better and faster in school if parents read to them at home and if they see their parents enjoying books, says a Radford University professor. “Before children can learn to read they have to learn how to like stories,” says John Sycamore, who teaches reading and special education at Radford. “Parents should read to their children at least three to five times a week.” A child as young as one year old should be read to, he adds, because it increases the child’s attention span. “Let your child see both parents read books, magazines and newspapers,” says Prof.- Sycamore, “then set aside a half hour to read a book to him.” Serving as an example is the best way to show a child “that reading is of value and something that can be fun.” Don’t attempt to teach your child phonics and grammar rules when they begin to read, Prof. Sycamore advises. Both parents should, instead, read to the child from small beginner books. “By moving your finger under the words as you read, the child learns how we read, left to right and top to bottom,” he says. Some stores now stock children’s books with cassette tapes so children can hear as well as read a story. “If parents don’t have time to sit dowm to read to their children, parents can play the tape or ask the babysitter to play it.” Prof. Sycamore noted most children’s books today are moving away from stereotypical female characters such as princesses and focusing on adventure stories with both male and female role models. Ironically, some TV viewing for children learning to read may be beneficial, Prof. Sycamore says, because television can teach children new words. “Kids who watch TV often learn words faster,” he says. Today some children begin kindergarten with a vocabulary of 10,000 words, double the number of words the average 5 year old used to master, he says. A library card for children also can encourage reading, he says, because they check out all kinds of books. “Textbooks in schools have what’s known as controlled vocabulary, or words that are repeated to teach phonics or sounds of letters, and those can be boring to a child.” Selecting books that include not only interesting pictures, but also intriguing story lines, can spark a child’s life-long interest in reading, says Prof. Sycamore. Patterson attends Institute Brion Patterson, a science teacher at Rappahannock County High School, was one of twenty Virginia teachers selected to participate in the High School Physics Teachers Institute at the University of Virginia during the summer. The three-week session, funded by the National Science Foundation, was held July 10-29. The Institute provided for extensive interaction of the teachers with a large number of senior faculty and nationally known research scientists in the Physics Department at the University.’The ■ emphasis was on topics related.to . current instruction, ranging from magnetism to superconductivity. Organized by the Physics Department at the University of Virginia, the Institute was sponsored by the Center for the Liberal Arts. Attendees received a stipend, as well as room and board. The program was designed by a workshop of high school physics teachers held at the University in the summer of 1986. Activities at the Institute included lectures, laboratory tours, panel discussions, research affiliations, and computer use. Teachers satisfactorily completing a series of assignments received three hours of graduate credit. asasMpsft^ttMaaassfs Money Match. It s twice as exciting.

Mr. Morehouse added, will be donated to several different relief organizations. Summer clothing and other items will be offered to the agencies which are sponsoring relief efforts for the victims of Hurricane Gilbert in Mexico and the Cambean islands. Mr. Morehouse said that, closer to home. Mitch Snyder of the Committee for Creative Nonviolence, which i> active in providing food, clothing and shelter for the homeless in Washington. I). C., has been contacted about distributing some of the excess inventory in the city. The mayor also expressed his hope, an echo of comments made during the council meeting last month, that the thrift shop could be reopened in another location. "It has provided a real service to the residents of Rappahannock County. In addition to generating revenue for the town's volunteer fire and rescue services, it has provided people in desperate straits with some assistance. “That." Mr. Morehouse concluded. "is what community spirit is all about." According to Ruth Clark, president of the ladies' auxiliary, the thritt shop has raised more than $85,000 during its years of business. She said that ihe group has not been able to find another place'to reopen the store, but she asked that anyone who would be willing to donate a space for the store please call her (675-8608) or another member of the auxiliary.

"Ask them if they can't give us a little better rate. That's commercial interest they’re charging." Commonwealth's Attorney Peter Luke confirmed that the board could investigate other loan sources besides Rappahannock National Bank, where the county maintains its accounts. “There's nothing that says that's the bank you have to borrow from if you can get a better rate somewhere else." “Look at the business we give them." agreed supervisor Massie. “It wouldn't hurt to shop around." “We may not have time to shop around if we're going to pay our bills by Wednesday," supervisor Charles Estes replied. “We can delay payment on some of these bills," interjected Mr McCarthy. "We’ll still be paying on time seven or 10 days from now." With those assurances, the board authorized chairman Gilkey and the county treasurer to sign a note for the county to borrow an unspecified amount for an unspecified time from an unspecified lending institution, “if and when it becomes necessary." Continued from page 1 At the suggestion of supervisor Ellis Bingham, the board also proposed that Route 15 between Haymarket and Route 211 in Fauquier County be reopened to trucks simultaneously with Route 17 to reduce the tractor trailer load on the latter route. Route Examine herds now for health, profits BY W. DEE WHITTIER. D.V.M. Kxtension Y**lerinar> Specialist With calf weaning and cattle working on most producers' agenda during the next month or two. some reminders about cow health management tips are in order. Every cow in Virginia, should probably be put down a chute this fall to have a number of procedures performed. The most commonly performed procedure is the performance of pregnancy diagnosis. This is a highly recommended procedure as it will allow producers to select cows that have failed to become pregnant and cull them prior to providing large amounts of expensive stored feeds when no return on investment will result. If early winter calving is practiced, vaccination for scours using the E. coli products might be performed at the same time, however, if calving will not occur until later in the spring, vaccination should occur within two to three months of the calving season. Eyes should be examined on all cows as they pass down the chute, particularly those cows with no pigment-(pink skin) around the eyes. This is true since cancer eye is a very common disease in cows over about fix e years of age. If small growths are detected at this time they can be successfully treated by your veterinarian and will save culling a perfectly good cow at a very reduced rate when the cancer becomes larger and be readily recognized as cow s go through sales. Look carefully for even small bumps at the place where the white meets the clear part of the eye, on the edge of the lid or on the fleshy part in the center of the eye (the third eyelid). Mastitis is also a consideration in IT'S HERE AT LAST! 1 — 1 ■■■' 1 The Shenandoah Valley's Only Exclusive TOTAL VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP Fantastic Sales, Genuine VcV Parts - Quality VW Service ___ MILLER S APPLE VALLEY VOLKSWAGEN, INC.

Two broad categories of mastitis should be recognized. The first category is the chronic mastitis that occurred during the last spring and summer. These cows may have been treated or may have gone unnoticed but now have quarters which have sustained large amounts of damage. These quarters can be recognized because they are larger and if felt, are often very hard. If the quarter is milked, an abnormal secretion often containing considerable amounts of pus may be seen. Some cows may warrant being kept if only one quarter is involved. Most cows that have two or more quarters involved should be heavily considered for culling. The second type of mastitis is acute mastitis that occurs in association with weaning. This is especially seen in heavy-producing cows that are producing more milk and will occur within a few days after weaning. For this reason, cows should be examined closely for several days after weaning. Quarters that are very, swollen or hard should be examined. Such quarters should be milked and treated with dry cow’ mastitis preparation such as is used in dairy cows. This may result in saving the quarter that would otherwise be lost if gone untreated. Body condition of cows should also be assessed at the time they go down the chute. Several methods have been developed for scoring body condition. A simple one involves classifying cows as either thin, borderline, moderate, good or fat body condition. Scoring each cow as she goes down the chute will allow accurate assessment of the average body condition of the cows. An important goal in reproductive management is to have all of the cows achieve moderate or better body condition by the time they calve. Since these cows will cycle sooner and thus be much more likely to become pregnant from next year’s breeding season, cows with inadequate body condition should be identified now. If the entire' herd is lacking body condition, then nutritional management before calving must be such as to allow cows to achieve moderate body condition prior to calving. However, if only a few individual cows fit into thin or borderline categories, these cows may be segregated and fed additional high quality forage and/or concentrate in order to allow them to achieve moderate body condition.
