SECRETARY WORK
SAYS GET BUSY
Upon the Activity of Virginians, the
Park Project Depends-Secretary
Enthusiastic Over Project

Get busy and keep busy-and tn,

This was the message of Huber
Work, secretary of the Interior, sen
to the people of Virginia, as they
swung into the second week of then
epochal drive to raise S2,50O.O0(
with which to purchase the land in
the proposed park area and present
it to Congress when it convenes in
Washington this winter.
Il bought the first acre of the
Shenandoah National Park, because
| know those few dollars were invest
ed in the best proposition on the mar
ket today" Secretary Work added
THAT park will bring Virginia I'M
told wealth and the people of the
whole East fortune in health that
cannot be measured by any known
terms today.
"Theresare hundreds of people in
Virginia who can buy many acres.
Everybody should take as many as
they can; but let's all buy one. at
least. We have been worried little
bit up here about Virginia's slowness
to get into action. But now they
have started, and l know Virginia is
going to sail on through to 100 per
cent success
Secretary Work particularly stress
ed the desire of his administration to
see two great national parks estab-
lished in the East this year. One,
selected by the Southern Appalachian
Mountain National Park Commission
as the first, is to be in the Blue Ridge
Mountains of Virginia, and the other
is to be in the Great Smoky Noun
tains of Tennessee and North Caro-
lima.
Il hope to see both parks go
through to victory together. 1t will
be just as easy to get one as to get
two, and l am delighted to see Vir-
ginia getting into action with such
vigorous determination. The nation
al parks in the West have broken all
records for attendance this summer
they are growing in popularity every
year.
There is every reason in the world
to hope that by this time next year
we will be assured two national parks

needed, and if everybody gets busy

IMPORTANT WATER NOTICE

The water situation has become

reservoirs can scarcely last three
days at the present rate of consump-
ton. In order to have supply for
drinking use and a limited amount
for bathing and laundry purposes.
and fire protection, which is very inn
portant, we ask that our citizens and
all water users restrict the use of
water for bath to that of six inches
in the tub, and use the tub less fire.
quently. And wherever possible
abandon the use of the tub altogether
until relief comes by rainfall suffi-
cient to overcome the present seri-
Gus shortage. Should the people fail
to cooperate in the manner just in
Dictated, it will become necessary for
the Council to order all bath tubs dis
connected from the service as long
as the present serious condition con
tinues.
We are fortunate that our supply
has carried US so well this far, when
many towns for some weeks have sui
fered serious shortage. If our peo-
pie cooperate as above requested, we
need not suffer any serious discom-
fort, or subject our town to he seri
Gus consequences that often attend an
intermittent flow of water in the
mains.
