The Glory of Autumn
The beauty of the maples, the
dogwoods and myrtles in their autumnal
glory have held me spellbound
this week. In certain sections
of the town there has been
beauty enough to set the heart faire
with gladness.
In the summer the life-saving
shade of the trees along my path
give rise to very kindly thoughts 01
Mr. Henry Foote, who planted
-da ssai ou ure i hbj oin "I main
preciative of his work and that oi
every other man and woman who
has taken the trouble to plant a
tree in Warrenton, especially the
maple trees along our sidewalks
The brilliance of their foliage ai
this season?those maples at the intersection
of Bragg Street anci
"Fifth Avenue," on Court Square
and on many lawns?reminds me ol
the unspeakable beauty of the sunset
as seen from our library windows.
Sometimes when I stand before
them lost in wonder and admiration
the thought comes to me that all
the beauty of the foliage is due to
the frost that has touched the
leaves, and the radiance of the
sunset marks the passing of a day.
Mrs. Seligman to Speak at Library
Realizing that World Peace must
be founded on a sympathetic understanding
of the nations and
races of the world and knowing that
such understanding is necessary if
we are to rise above prejudice, we
have asked Mrs. Rebecca Seligman
friend of this library and a worthy
representative of the Jewish people,
to tell us tomething of the national
characteristics, traditions and ideals
nf Vior- rvf>nr?lf> nn thp pvenintr nf
Armistice Day, Wednesday, November
11th. She has chosen for her
subject "Ancient Wisdom for a
Modern World "
Mrs- Seligman has appeared before
Warrenton audiences frequently
during the years she has spent
her winters at Warren Plains. Her
message at this time when the
study groups in our churches arc
especially interested in other races
seems especially pertinent. She will
be introduced by the president of
one of these organizations.
The public is invited to hear her.
She will speak at 7:45 Wednesday
evening.
Closed For Haliday
We are not usually very careful
to observe the various holidays. We
are asking permission to do so on
Armistice Day this year for two
reason. The first is that an occasional
day of rest is as balm to the
soul: the second?that the librarian
may be able to attend some of the
services sponsored by the churches
on that day in behalf of World
PeaceCirculation
circulation during tne tan is always
lower than at any other season.
A comparison of figures shows
a rise of 243 for October '36 over
the same month last year. In other
words, the library lent 1.394 volumes
this year and only 1,151 in October
1935.

Mileage Hints
By J. F. Winchester
Supervisor of Motor Vehicle
Equipment, Esso Marketers
TRES, springs, and shock absorbers
are three of the means by
which the maker of your car tries
to give you comfortable riding. To
assure yourself of this comfort you
_ must pay some
gTy ?>. attention to them.

to get a softer ride by running your
tires at lower than the recommended
pressure, for you will shorten
their life.
Springs need lubrication to' enable
them to absorb shock most
efficiently, and this will usually be
taken care of when you have a
chassis lubrication job done at a
reputable service station. Broken
spring leaves should be replaced
promptly to eliminate the added
strain on the unbroken leaves and
prevent further breakage.
Shock absorbers should be kept
In.'good condition. Connections
should be checked to make sure the
absorbers are given a chance- to
function properly. Hydraulic absorbers
in which the rebound is
checked by a body of oil should be
checked every '3,000 miles to make
certain the oil supply is adequate.
Keep in mind the importance of
your tires, springs and shock absorbers
and check them occasionally
as suggested to insure your
enjoyment of motoring. \

Warrenton as Maise has been a
tower of strength hi the Warrenton
line all year.
I still believe that John Graham
can win this Saturday. They are
a fine example of the saying "That
a team that won't be beaten can't
be beaten." Every man on the
John Graham team is one that will
be in there fighting when the last
horn blows. A victory against South
Hill will not be a surprise.

Phil Spitalny and a Gin
He Makes Their "Dates,"
f Gets Aw a-)
NEW YORK. ? Managing thirty
beautiful young women, and all
of them musicians, is a job for
any man, but it doesn't seem to
bother Phil Spitalny.
The noted maestro of stage and
radio is the only orchestra leader
who has ever attempted the feat
in a big way, and for two and onehalf
years he has run the "roost"
without a ripple, it seems.
"Women are easier to handle
than men because they are. extremists,"
says the baton leader.
"If they hate, they hate harder;
if they love it works the same way,
and if they are real musicians they
are better than most males."
He also claims that they can be
more loyal, and by the same token
more disloyal, that they memorize
faster than the opposite sex, and
are never late; that the smart ones
are smarter than men and the
dumb ones dumber.
Spitalny, an extremely vital person,
yvith plenty of temperament of
his own, not only waves the magic
musical -}wand over his Musical
Queens." He selects their clothes,
arranges their coiffures, picks their
beaus, and gets away with it. They
in turn, however, often choose his
neckties, which are loud ones. Spitalny's
favorite color is red but he

He taboos boyish bobs, jewelry,
red finger-nail polish, too much
pake-up and decollette gowns, and
thinks girls look prettier with their
hair parted in the middle. The top

weight Is 120 pounds and If a member
of the band goes over that
mark she is put on a strict diet.
By a coincidence, the entire band
is composed of brunettes, but according
to Phil this doesn't mean
that they make better musicians
than blondes.
If a girl has a "date" she asks
permission before accepting it. Phil
must know his name -and where
they're going, and if a girl signs
up with the band it's with a guarantee
that she won't make any
matrimonial vows for at least six
months. With salaries starting at
$75.00 a week and a percentage
of profits for all, most of the girls
stick to their jobs, Phil added.
While Spitalny acts as the
"higher court," a committee of five

Patricia, first trumpeter, Gypsy,

Spitalny combed the country for
talent, listening to more than
1,500 auditions before selecting his
unique and celebrated musical unit j
which recently completed a coast |
to coa3t tour. Spitalny and his girls i
will be featured on the air in an j
