LOCAL CONTRACTORS
GET KENNEDY WORK

President and Mrs. John F. Kennedy's new home
being built in the Atoka OF Fauqner county Is
under contract to Harold Morency and John Allen Taoot
III young building contractors of Mddlebrg.
; Informed sources say that Mrs. Kennedy drew the
uan of the house to scale on graph paper
The plans were gone by Bud Harrison VINO WORKS
for Morency Talbot and then the plans were cleaned
I up" by Winchester Architect Keith Williams.
The $450 900 estimate, which has caused raised
eyebrows among contractors is based on the permit ir
construction in Fauquier County These permits usually
are estimated at about third at the most nall OF
the actual building costs, based on real estate ana
; personal property taxes in that part OF Virginia
:, The house site is on what was once known as
Hatchers Mountain now called Rattlesnake Mountain
By whatever name there is no real mountain on the
property. .,, -,
The site lies in back Of Mrs Robert V. Carks farm
south off o. S. So According to Hubert Phpps who sold
the land to the Kennedys it bounded by his property
and his Mill House property leased by Mrs James Wiley
and by Mrs. Clark's property.
The land once owned by Mrs. Frederick Guest,
mother Of Winston and Raymond Guest 1t has been IN
the Guest-Phpps family since the Long islanders
migrated to Virginia and according to Hubert many
members of the family had expected to build on 1t some
day It is near the dividing line between the Orange
County Hunts and the Piedmont Foxhounds territories
Since Mrs. Kennedy is a land owner in Piedmont
she will probably cap" with Orange County by invitation
Morency and Talbot also bought and renovated the
old Ludwe Lake farmhouse Atoka road from the
Kennedy property.

win in order to gain strength.
Plan Succeeds
Her pupils are now the
best first-graders in the
school!
Another friend, who
teaches eighth-grade science,
bought pamphlets on reptiles,
birds, plants. volcanoes,
storms, ocean currents and
the like for supplemental
reading.
His class showed increased
interest each time pamphlets
were used. Their grasp Of
science extended beyond the
confines of their textbook.
These teachers presage are
the frontiersmen of the new
age in education. Check
your childen's schools to see
if they too, are abreast Of
the times.
