State Senator Charles Fen
wick. candidate for Governor of
Virginia. left a comfortable feel
ing with the Loudoun County
voters who heard his speech in
the gardens Of Oak Hill on Tues
day. Monroe's home could have
been the setting for a histronic
plea to the 300-and-some people
who came from S to Z to meet
Mr.. Fenwick, but he ignored the
obvious and made his points for
better education in Virginia, bet
ter conservation, better health
care, better roads, better farm
services and much better han
ding of taxation. He summed
all this up in about Is minutes
and then let his potential back
ers get back to their sandwiches
and punch a gracious gesture
in this day of long-drawn-out
political haranguing.
After most of the Senator's
audience had left the gardens
in a Utopian glow, the Thomas
deLashmutts entertained about
20 guests at an impromptu buf-
fet supper at Oak Hill, honoring
Mr.. and Mrs. Fenwick. No better
ham or turkey could be raised
or more convivial talk tossed
about under a new Governor.
The only improvement could
have been a warmer evening,
which even politicians can't
control.
Among the Loudoun County
guests at the DeLashmutts' sup
per were the Sterling Harrisons,
the John w. Clemens and j.
Edgar Orme, jr., of Leesburg,
John and Lillian Lawson from
Unison and John Dudley Of
Middleburg. Fauquier County
stepped over the line for the
evening, represented by the
George Robert Skaters from
Upperville and the William
GraStys, who's farm lies both in
Fauquier and Loudoun. Bill
Grasty, an old and tried friend
of the Fenwicks, presented the
Senator to the group in the gar
den earlier in the afternoon.

Countless Leaves

Nobody pays much attention to the leaves
in summer. They are there to be sure, shading
picnicS and hammock loungers. But until now,
they have been relatively unimportant as
conversation piece or a spur to activity.
Suddenly, however, they become so real that
except for their beauty one sometimes finds
himself wishing they would go away. This
desire becomes particularly pronounced when
the wind sends them Showering to the lawn and
the argument that they should be left there to
feed the grass is overruled. 1t arises again when
there is a decision that study of nature is
necessary to complete the education, and one
is recruited for hike in the woods to help
gather rare specimens for the scholars collec-
ton. At home, the leaves are deposited with
summers shells and rocks to be forgotten
until it is time to clean the closet
Leaves have strange fascination for
youngsters, especially leaves which have been
Evening star., 1953-10-31

raked neatly into piles only a few moments
before and are awaiting disposal They draw
like magnet, and the delight with which they
are leaped upon is all too evident. The pile
left too long must be scuffed through, kicked
and scattered. 1t is to be expected And again,
when one wishes to be silent in the woods so
that the game will not be startled into flight,
the leaves are there cracking and swapping
under foot.
The uses for leaves offset some of these
disadvantages. They are fine for compost. They
make cozy winter insulation around the old
farmhouse. When the law allows burning, they
make sprightly blaze. But the little irritations
crop up, even into winter, when one finds that
a leaf has been pressed in a favorite book
yellowing the pages. Sometimes it is hoped a
plan could be devised to keep the leaves on the
trees all winter

BY Charles E. TroceweH

What you don't see can't hurt
you"
That was an old proverb that has
caused great deal of trouble, expense
and misery in its time.
There might have been some excuse
for it, in the days before germs and
even smaller particles of life were dis
covered
The subject of fungi has afforded
much information on the cause of
apparently mysterious diseases. Penicil-
lin is fungus. and SO are many other
bits of vegetable life which cause skin
rasheS, stomach upsets and respira-
tional troubles.
One cannot be taking antihistamine
drugs all the time. More can be done
by the cooperative effort of all citizens.
The day will come when a fire in
the back yard will be totally unknown.
or punished severely when it does occur
by chance.
1t will be held that leaf and other
combustible materials are too valuable
to waste in such manner. and that
the illnesses they may cause are too
expensive and troublesome to heal
when they can be prevented
Every citizen can help in this good
campaign by creating compost pile
in his own back yard, and compositing
his annual leaf crop instead of burn
ing. BY the addition of some chemicals,
he may turn his pile of leaves into fine
fertilizing material by next spring. Even
without the chemical additives, he will
have fine fertilizer within two years.
So why waste leaves?
