FOLLOW THE EXAMPLE

In Chesterfield County, those in
terested in the local tuberculosis
work are asking the school children
to raise chickens or in other ways
make money during the summer with
which to buy Christmas Seals when
the annual sale of seals is put on,
the last Of November. A little ne
gro boy in one-room country school
told the worker of the Virginia Tu-
berculosis Association who was CIV
ing health talks in the school that
he was going to raise a chicken and
call it Christmas Seal"
1t is probable that this idea will
be followed in other localities. and
the Virginia tuberculosis Association
is suggesting to its local chairmen
that they urge the young citizens of
the state to earn money during the
summer by selling eggs. raising veg
etables, wedding the garden, cutting
grass. running errands, "minding
the baby" washing dishes or in other
helpful ways.

her kind, Mrs. j. B. Reynolds, wife
of Bedford County farmer, now
missing four months, goes daily,
when the weather permits, from her
home to the top of Lockes Mountain,
nearby, to watch for his return.
Now almost a physical wreck, she
still gives her vigil to all four di-
rections of the wind, and then,
broken-heartedly makes her tedious
way back. Eight children were left
her. the oldest a youngster of IL.
He is trying to make a crop for the
family's sustenance while the pity
ing neighbors are assisting him.
Reynolds was patient at the

about three weeks in April, and no
trace of him has been found since
he left there.

MAURERTowN IMPROVES

Maurertown at present is but a
village with a few hundred alert,
active and progressive citizens, who
have caught the spirit of the times
and are bent towards bigger things
along progressive lines. Just recent
ly cement sidewalk has been COM
pleted the entire length of the town,
adding not only to its appearance but
great deal to the convenience of
the citizens.
However, the big and outstanding
improvement in Maurertown is the
modernly equipped. attractive and
well stocked filling station and auto
mobile supply house of w. j. Goeh-
enour, in the center of the town.
The station has rest rooms compar-
able to any in the state, with Office
equipment modern in every detail.
In addition the motorist may find
here almost any requisite for his con-
venience and a full line of parts for
standard cars are stocked. Tires of
all sizes are supplied.
The filling station, with the park
which surrounds it. is one of the
most attractive in the state.
K. Sidney Newman, whose genial
ity and courtesy wins and holds Gus
toners, is in charge of the station,
and service such as motorists APP
preciate is given freely and gladly.

WAR PARKWAY IN VIRGINIA

Creation of a Civil War Parkway
from washington to the Shenandoah
Valley. to conect with the proposed
Blue Ridge National Park and to-
preserve the battlefields of Bull Run,
Gainesville, Chantilly and score of
lesser engagements, is being consid-
cred nv civic organizations in Vir-
ginia communities along the proposed
route and soon will be submitted to
the National Capital Park Commits
sion. If was learned in Washington
Civic groups, including Chambers
of Commerce and Kiwanis Clubs of
Fairfax. Manassas, Warrenton, New
Market and Staunton are backing
the plan, it was stated. The project
has the endorsement of Lieutenant
Colonel G.. o. Sheriff., director of
public buildings and parks and ex-
ecutive officer of the park commits
sion. The Lee Highway Association
is also behind the plan.
/ Across Six Counties
The proposed parkway would fol-
low generally the course of the Lee
Highway and would traverse por-
tions of six Virginia counties-Ar-
lington, Prince William, Fauquier,
Culpeper, Rappahannock, and either
Page or Madison.
! If the plan is adopted, together
with the proposed double parkway
from Washington to Baltimore and
from Washington to Richmond, mo-
florists will be able to travel from
Baltimore through Washington to
the Shenandoah Valley, without ever
leaving a parkway.
The Virginia Parkway could be ac-
quired now with relatively small ex-
pense, advocates of the plan state
The assurance that Virginia State
officials will assist in the plan has
been given, it is said.
The parkway, which would be
one of the most extensive in the
world, would include large areas
of the most beautiful Virginia coun'
tryside, still in its natural condi
; ton. The country proposed for in
clusion in the park is mostly roll
ing country, densely wooded with
pine and cedar groves.
The park would lead directly tc
the portion of the Blue Ridge
Mountains around the Skylands, the
highest portion of the range ant
some of the most beautiful natura
scenery in the East.
Section Is Historic
The battlefield of Bull Run, one
of the most historic in the country
would be included. This scene Of
two desperate battles is already {
mecca for thousands of visitors {
year, despite the present poor con
: dition of portions of the road.
Practically every foot of the pro
: posed parkway, is on the site oil
some skirmish or battle during the
Civil War. 1t was crossed many times
by the armies of the Potomac and
northern Virginia, en- route to the
battles of Gettysburg. Antietam and
Fredericksburg, and is rich in his
torical lore.
Fairfax Courthouse, which would
be in the line of the parkway, is
one of the most historic spots in
America. Here the will of George
Washington and priceless records Of
Colonial days are stored. At Fair
| fax the first soldier fell in an en-
counter between armed forces of the
! North and South. Here General
Staughton, of the Union Army, was
captured by the daring Confederate
} leader. Mosby, on one of his bril-.
! liant raids.
