time by medical personnel, and they are hoping to establish a dental clinic there soon. Future hopes are to have small satellite clinics in some of the far reaching areas, which is so badly needed, due to the long distances form the current clinic and no transportation.
People in Honduras are, of course, very poor. Most of the land is owned by American-owned corporations and is used for banana and coconut oil plantations. Wages paid to the workers are shamefully low. We felt privileged to be able to meet these sweet-spirited people and to be able to help relieve their suffering in some small way. We certainly hope to be able to return again.
We want to thank especially the following dentists who donated money or supplies to the Mission: Dr. and Mrs. John Helleberg, Dr. Victor Saunders, Dr. Steven Saunders, Dr. Jack Thompson, Dr. Thomas Kangur, Dr. John Reeves, Dr. William King, Dr. Philip Ferlazzo, Dr. Ted Sherwin, Dr. David De Viese and Dr. Charles Manning.
If anyone would like further information about this project or would like to make a donation to the work of the clinic of Urraco Pueblo, please contact Barbara or Carol at: P.O. Box 908, Madison, Va. 22727, (any checks sent, payable to Ann Miller, SFCC.) The people really do so much with so little, and any donations would be used for direct assistance, and would go a very long way towards feeding and housing malnourished infants and toddlers at the Urraco Nutrition Site, for medical or dental services and supplies, for basic health education, and so on.

To the Editor:
Due to an oversight, several supporters of the 17th Annual Fodderstack 10-K Race were omitted from my earlier “Thank You” Letter. As 1 can’t seem to manage to blame the oversight in question on anyone else, I’ll accept same and impose on the Rappahannock News ’ good will to extend a “corrected Thank You” by adding the Rappahannock National Bank, Luke & Genbach, Roger Batchelder Realty, Merrill Strange and John Baumgardner, to the list of our valued patrons.
