Cu|PePer Healthy Hub Of Northern Virginia
BY Stanley Baitz

CULPEPER, Va.
66THE HUB of northern
Il Virginia" is the phrase
civic-minded members of this
bustling community of 5000
use to get across the idea that
Culpeper is one of the impor-
tant agricultural and COM
mercial crossroads of the
State.
A variation on this theme is
the slogan, "All roads lead to
Culpeper," on posters and en-
velopes advertising the Bicen-
tennial Celebration, to be held
July $3.50, to mark the 2O0th
anniversary of the founding
of the town. While this is,
perhaps, an overstatement, it
Is true that the town is easily
accessible from Washington,
IS miles to the northwest,
from the picturesque Shen-
andoah National Park region
to the west, the Warrenton
horse country to the north.
Charlottesville to the south
and Fredericksburg to the east.
Culpeper's history is closely
intermingled with that of the
county of the same name, of
which 1t Is the seat. The
Evening star., 1949-07-10

county was named after Lord
Thomas Culpeper Cat one
time spelled Colepeper), Co.
lonial Governor of Virginia
from 1880 to 1888. It's orig
inal territory comprised what
is now Culpeper, Madison and
Rappahannock Counties. Its
present limits were defined in
l748, and the following year
the first county court con-
vened. George Washington,
then only II, was commits
stoned county surveyor.

began in 1859, however, and
in 1870 its name was changed

greater neutrality toward the
Communist guerrillas. who at one
time were using Yugoslav Mace
donia as their base of operations
in Northern Greece.
While the rebels are still per-
mitted to maintain troops IN
Yugoslavia, handicaps have been
put in the way of their transpor-
tation of supplies to the battle
fronts. Yugoslav border guards
also do not permit guerrillas to
return to the country once they
have crossed the border into
Greece. Whenever the rebels have
to flee from Greece. they seek
refuge either in Bulgaria or AL

Our diplomatic observers are
still puzzled over the fact that the
Kremlin has not yet decided to
take any reprisals against the Bel

the Greek government.

Duchess says, Never mind, Ed
ward, we'll carry it ourselves. -
Whereupon she picks up one lit
tie hatbox and starts trotting
toward the train, leaving Edward
amidst the mountain Of luggage.
If the Duchess hasn't done that,
then she isn't q true wife.
And So Much Unpacking.
King though he once was, how
does the Duke summon up
enough courage to look the Pull
man porter in the face when he
starts telling him where to place
the luggage? With the few little
pieces we travel with. porters
usually tell us that we can't put
them under the berth because
some one has already beaten US to
that place, and we can't leave
them in the aisles. and the space
between the cars is already filled.
and SO we'll just have to take
them In the berth With us.
Then think of all the unpack-
ing the Duke has to do when he
finally gets to his hotel. To begin
with, the Duchess will take all the
top drawers and use up all the
hangers. That means the Duke
gets the bottom drawers. where
he has to lie almost on the floor
to pick out a shirt, and spend the
next three days trying to get q
few hangers for himself.
Yes, sir, I'm sorry for the man.
It's a wonder he even looks as
good as a walnut.
