Those of the community who use
Whites Ferry to cross into Vir-
ginia should check into the service
before making any trips. The
heavy rains and wind of the past
week caused the Potomac to swell
and on Sunday the river was so
high that the ferry was unable to
cross. Cars from three states lined
the road to the ferry and all were
turned back. The guiding cable
was under water and the little
white capped swells gave the river
the look of the Bay. So if you are
planning trip, make sure the
ferry is in operation before taking
that road.
The card party given by the
Ascension Chapel in their new
Parish Hall last Saturday evening
