tuniL> WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, JUNE 7, 1951 TREASURER REPORTS DEFICIT AT COUNTY BOARD MEETING County Treasurer R. L. Brown reported an $8,000 deficit at the Board of Supervisors meeting Wednesday morning, June 6. At the same time, the treasurer stated that collections of taxes were $7,000 in excess of collections at this time last year, and also that records showed fewer delinquents than this time last year. * All members of the board were present. Richard Worthington, resident highway engineer, read the county road budget with itemized expenditures, showing about $80,000 to be used for maintenance. Resolu. tioins passed for road improvements, besides those already included in the budget, were for two bridges on Route 629, between 628 and a dead-end, to replace open fords, the timber and rocks to be furnished by property owners on the road; and a proposed road off Route 626, on Starks lane, terminating at a fork leading to the Adelaide Sloan property and some property of Joe D. Keyser. Maypr Dorothy C. Davis appeared before the board for permission to have the yard to the i rear of the Courthouse used for a playground for children. A period of two weeks was requested by the board members to make their decisions, since they would like to know if the noise would annoy those working in the Courthouse, if there would be any objections from other districts in the county, and to study any other problems that might arise. -- fiiMiiitMitiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiimiamm,,IM,lll„HlillitH !

Garden Club Announces Beautification Contest The Garden Club has announced a contest to beautify a section of the Thornton River in Sperryville. Because of the natural beauty and charm of the river and because so much of the traveling public sees it, this particular spot seems to invite further development of its possibilities. Since so many of the people who live in this area have done much already to make their premises attractive, the Garden Club l\opes through this contest to show appreciation for what has been done and inspire even greater accomplishments. The rules of .the contest are as follows: - 1, The—purpose of the contest is to beautify the premises of homes and businesses on hoth sides of the highway between the bridge next to the Esso service station and the bridge next .to the V.FW hall in Sperryville. 2. The contest closes May 15, 1952. There must be at least ten homes or businesses competing. A smaller number would not justify a contest. 4. Three cash prizes will be given: $15 first prize; $10 second prize; $5 third prize. 5. The winners will be chosen .by votes of the adult citizens of Rappahannock county. They may vote on a penny postal to be mailed to a person who will be. designated later. The votes must be in by May 20, 1952. 6. Persons who are entrants in the contest should notify the secretary of the Garden Club (Mrs. R. V. Snead) by September 1, 1951. The Garden Club earnestly hopes that all of those who are eligible will co-operate in making one of the beauty spots of Rappahannock even more attractive than it now is. If anyone can suggest a good slogan (or even a poem!) for this cantesf the club would be delighted to have it. -nGarden Club Met With Mrs. Taylor The Rappahannock Garden Club met on Wednesday afternoon afternoon, May 30, at “Grand View” the home of Mrs. George Taylor.

Mrs. McClasky gave an interesting talk on Wild Flowers, the topic for the month, ending with a poem she had composed which was very fitting. A tour was then made of Mrs. Taylor’s lovely garden, after which delicious refreshments were served. Mrs. R. E. Wood presided at the punch bowl. There were 24 ladies present. -gMISS ANDERSON RECEIVES SCHOLARSHIP HONOR Miss Lucy Mason Anderson of Arlington, class of 1947 of Mary Washington college, who has been an instructor at the Medical College of Virginia, has been awarded an assistantship and scholarship at Stanford University, California, where she will do research work in biochemistry next year.

Pledging the cooperation of their organizations were: Charles Jordan, chairman of the Production Marketing Administration; Frank B. Cales, State supervisor of vocation^} agriculture; R. O. Deland, State director of Farmers iHome- Administration, #11 in Richmond; S, W. Bondurant, State soil conservationist; Dr. H. N. Young, director of the Experiment Station; and L. B. Dietrick, director of the Extension Service, all in Blacksburg. The pasture program was announced early last week, as was the appointment of Dr. Walter S. Newman, president of VPI, as chairman of a State committee to put the program into effect. - Dr. Young pointed to research underway which is de^ignedtohnd improved pasture systems for Virginia. Outstanding, he said, is that being conducted at the Middleburg branch of the VPI Agricultural Experiment Station. Director Dietrick immediately briefed his staff of county agents on the program, telling them that the Governor’s organizational plan provides for a county pacture committee in every county. The agents were asked to call a meeting of county leaders to make plans for county programs to be put into effect after a meeting of the State committee. In Richmond, Governor Battle said members of the State committee would be appointed within the next few days. Bondurant pointed out that grassland farming has long been “a vital part of soil conservation” and that he is ‘'heartily in favor” of the program. The other officials were likewise enthusiastic about the program, pointing to it as a sound basis for an improved agriculture in Virginia. -HImmersion Service sgss-feag an immersion service at Flint Hill Baptist church at 5 p.m., Sunday, June 10.

Miss Alma Retires As Flint Hill Postmaster Closing a career of 38 years, Miss Alma Ricketts has retired as postmaster of Flint Hill post office. The citizens of the community presented Miss Alma with a gift, a chair, as a token of their appreciation for all the accommodating acts and her kindness through the years. The folks say they know they’ll miss her more' than can be expressed. Many of the youngsters in the community appeared shocked when they were told that Miss Alma would retire on June 1. They had never known the postmaster as being anyone but Miss Alma and some of them seemed to think it couldn’t be run any other way. Prior to Miss Alma’s becoming the postmaster in 1913, Her sister, Mrs. Radcliffe, had the position. Mrs. O. W. Gilbert, Jr., is acting postmaster at present on a temporary appointment. -w Soil Saver Notes Eight farmers in Rappahannock and Culpeper counties completed drainage projects on (their farm3 recently. Soil Conservation Service technicians working in cooperation with the Culpeper soil conservation district, assisted the farmers in locating the ditch lines and in the design of the ditches. The Production & Marketing Administration will make a payment of 12-cents per cubic yard of dirt moved from drainage ditches on the farms, not to exceed a maximum of $100 per landowner. All drainage work for which PMA gives financial assistance must meet specifications and receive the approval of the soil Conservation Service technician, before payment can be made. Two Rappahannock farmers completed drainage work this week: C. R. Wire, recent purchaser of “The Shade,” and R. M. Menefee, both located near Flatwoods. Mr. Wire is developing “The Shade” as a grass farm. Pasture improvement will consist of developmg various mixtures of grasses and legumes centered around Ladino clover, orchard grass, and Kentucky 31 Fescue. Hayland development—will—include—ali'aifa, clover, and orchard grass in various mixtures. Proper amounts of limestone and fertilizer will be applied as the program unfolds. Protect Land Our government is founded on the principle that we—ail of us together—have the spirit and the ability to decide for ourselves the actions we want to tak» togetherin our Joint Trittrre*sf^aTid_c‘6himbn welfare. This is what^xwe fight i'orv This is a representative selfgovernment—'the best government and the best society that men and women have ever enjoyed on earth. This is the kind of government and society that offers the greatest advantages in personal liberty and the greatest opportunitiesTor accomplishment. This ics the form, the spirit, and the practice of the Culpeper Soil Conservation District. Americans have decided they want to protect their land and water resources. But there is no man in Washington who can order ail the people to apply modern soil conservation measures. So the farmers have organized themselves freely and voluntarily, to do the job according to the principle of self-government in counties and communities ail over the country. The medium through which tnis is accomplished is the Soil Conservation District — free, local, representative self-government in the best tradition of America. The farmers of a soil conservation district decide for themselves what they want to do in conservation, when they want to 'do it, where' they want to do it, who they want to help them and how they want to do it. The Soil Conservation District is American self-government. ^The right to continue American selfgovernment is one of the great rights lor which we work and fignt and sacrifice, it is one of the rights Americans have died for in the past, and now, again, are defending with their lives and air their resources. In the years ahead, soil conservation districts offer America the greatest oppoitunity it has had in modern times to strengthen its ideal of self-government and solve at the same time one of the most fundamental problems—the protection of its vital land and water resources.

Director Haaker stated in a telephone conversation Tuesday that the concerts for this summer’s season will be held August 12, 19, and 26, and that the music school camp, though not on as large a scale as it is hoped it may grow to lie, will be held. Preparation of the site for the concerts is in progress. This is being' done by the State group with their fund& Local funds, and funds derived from the sale of memberships in the county and adjoining counties and towns, are to be in the hands of the local directors and will be spent on music. There is an idea prevalent, possibly picked up from metropolitan newspapers, that the Blue Ridge Music Festival means only three concerts. This is not the whole case, according to the directors. It also means that there will be a school for serious minded music students and a capable faculty for same. It should be borne in mind that outside publicity sometimes contains matters that seem a bit inaccurate to local people; however, “we need memberships and the funds that go with them to spend on music for us all, so we will not quibble over some details,’’ States a director.

There’s No Vacation From Highway Accidents One week . . . two weeks . . . three or four! Get away from it all! Forget everything! Nothing _bu.L.a-_g+«d - ttrrre! UanTTaff o rd to waste a minute! With such an attitude, millions load the family car and head for the open road. Thinking only of good times ahead, they forget that death on the highway takes no vacation . . . anytime! It may be well to relax from all the worries of the shop or office; but it’s deadly to relax, for even a moment, behind the wheel of a car! Yet during vacation days ahead, thousands will drive away from home only to find they’ve taken themselves or their loved ones on a one way trip from here to eternity. It may be the man at the desk or machine next to yours ... it may be your next door neighbor ... it may be the young couple in the house half way up the next block ... it may be YOU . . . unless . . . UNLESS every motorist remains an alert and responsible driver, whether he’s heading for the local beach or for the cottage on the lake. But the very reasons for, and the advantage of, vacations make it all too easy for anyone to let little too fast, to take one chance too many, to celebrate just a little too much. 341 X-RAYS TAKEN I’he x-ray clinic of the health department took 341 x-rays on Tuesday in Sperryville and Wednesday in Washington. It was virtually impossible to tell immediately how many there were in each section of the county, for the bad weather on Tuesday prevented many from getting to the clinic in Sperryville and they came to the clinic in Washingtori on W ednesday. 7TH GRADE GRADUATION EXERCISES TOMORROW The giaduation classes of the 7th grades from Flint Hill, Sperryville and Amissville will hold graduation exercises Friday evening, June 8, at the Sperryville School auditorium. » An electrical storm, with high j\ winds, ripped through the Flint ) Hill neighborhood Monday afternoon about 4:30, taking down /* “] On the highway near the homo of Mrs. W. P. Slaughter a large tree was broken in two and one section of it fell across the road. Traffic got by the tree by pulling to one far side of the road. A big tree fell across the highway in front of Wood Brothers Packing House. This tree brought down telephone wires and disrupted service from that neighborhood for nearly 24 hours. Falling as it did, the highway was completely blocked and it would have caused much more trouble in halting traffic but for the fact that it fell in exactly a right spot to allow cars and trucks to detour through the driveway in front of the packing house. No other serious damage has been reported. One light in front of the Baptist church was blown off its base, and a number of small trees and bushes were broken off or up-rooted. The rain fell as if someone had dumped a bucket. The storm was not as severe in other parts of the county, though an unusually heavy rain fell near Woodville. trees and electrical wires. Church Begins Drive Of “Add A Dollar” A group from Washington Baptist church is inaugurating a campaign of “Add A Dollar to Add to the Sunday School” in Washington. Using a unique plan, posters are to be put up in business places and people will be asked to “add a dollar” by sticking a dollar on to the ones attached to the cardboard. With cellophane tape, this can mean that the dollars will hang in streamers from the “Add a Dollar” signs. Realizing the desperate need for more Sunday School rooms, some members of the Baptist Sunday school decided to follow the plan set by the Methodist minister in Texas who tried to get a “mile of dollars” to re-build his burned church. His story was in Life magazine,. May 21, with a pietuie of him wrapped in the long line of dollars given. He did not get quite a full mile, which he estimated would be $10,000, but he got more than half of it. In Washington, the posters will be in the bank, the printing office, stores, garages, restaurant, and public offices, for folks to “add -a dollar” tcr'Tfrest reamers. -£Mrs. Luttrell Honored At School Pafty Mrs. Etta Luttrell’s fifth grade at Sperryville school entertained at a party in her honor "Wednesday. Mrs. Luttrell was presented with a corsage and a gift of three hand-painted angels, and also many gifts from the children in her room. Mrs. Luttrell will retire from teaching this session of school, having taught 30 years. The children of her grade tried to express the i egret of the parents and the children of future grades that Mrs. Luttrell will not be present to teach them. The children fell that every child who has not had Mrs. Luttrell .as a teacher has lost much. Richard M. Smoot Richard M. Smoot died at Front Royal hospital Tuesday morning, June 5.

Rappahannock News Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia Dial Washington 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia. Subscription:-$2.00 a year To Straighten the Record A couple of Washington, D.C., Sunday papers blossomed out with a lot of news for Rappahannock regarding the forth-coming Blue Ridge Music Festival. The headlines M one of the papers were enough to push the local blood-pressure up a few notches—if the weather hadn’t been so hot, and if the county people didn't have something else to do besides get upset over items in city papers. “2nd Washington Seeks Music Recognition” stated one of the papers. Ouch! “2nd Washington” they say, after the ladies of “The First Washington of Them A11” almost had a fit and fell in it before they got the State Conservation Commission to put up the placques announcing this to be ©ne-and-only, original, real-McCoy, cross-my-heart and hope-may-die lirst-washington. “Seeks Music Recognition” the city paper continues. My! My! The county’s getting so fancy and ambitious, the first thing you know all the young sons of Rappahannock will be attending dancing school, attired in little-lord-fauntleroys and patent-leather slippers! Most fully are we aware of Rappahannock’s talents and abilities. The grandsires of some of us were known far and wide as the makers of the best corn-likker in the hills, but this “seeking music recognition” sounds as if the grandsons are going to take a turn at playing the harp! Somewhere back in the distant recesses of memory, it seems to rise that the original purpose of this music festival—as far as Rap pahannock Was concerned—w*s to give ourselves a chance to hear some good music and see that the young people of the "county got an opportunity to hear good music. Of course, we were glad that young musicians were to be encouraged in their studies; in fact, we are glad for all the encouragement it brings to anyone. Somebody was going to get The summer music festival located in their county, and a few local folks thought Rappahannock might as well be the place. » But the biggest joke of all seems to lie in Washington’s getting publicity for being the “guiding spirit” which brought about this locating the State orchestra in the county. The original meeting of planning—an interview and discussion between Mr. and Mrs. Haaker and some local citizens— took place near the one-and-only, original, “First Sperryville of Them All” with about eight or ten Sperryvillians present and a couple of Woodvillians. To put it mildly, the meeting was tastefully decorated with the conspicuous absence of all Washingtonians. Well, let’s say that the Sperryvillians and Woodvillians know a good thing when they see it, and after getting the thing introduced properly, they just turn the work over to Washington and let the lady mayor and the illustrious village of antiquity reap the reflected glory. But who has time to get all upset about it? Just bring on the concerts. W'e’ll all go down to the Avon Mill and listen to our heart’s content—whether the photogenic lady-mayor started the train roll- 8 ing or just jumped on the caboose in time to be present. SCOUTS ENJOY OUTING Claude Cook, scout master of Flint Hill, Capt. William Wiener, and Nelson Atkins accompanied 16 boy scouts on an over-night trip to “Elk Wallow” Friday. Boys on the trip were Jimmie Lillard, Lester Claterbuck, Junior Atkins, Bobbie Massie, Johnnie Browning, Elmer Foster, Dudley Wood, Daniel Foster, Wylie Gentry, Galley Smith, Bobbie Lillard, Jimmie Sealock, Bradley Willliams, Tommie Carpenter, Grady Vest, and Charles Harrison. Parents’ Problems By DONALD M. MAYNARD Fear of Fighting My son is eight years old, strong and heatlhy. My problem is that he toUl not defend himself. He runs away from a light. For instance, one of the boys on the block took his baseball and ran home with it. I told my son to go get it and his reply was “no," that the boy would beat him up. He has only on older sister, but his daddy is willing to try to help solve this problem. It is unfortunate, of course, that your son runs away from a fight, especially if his running sway is an indication of fear, which I judge you feel it is. If he refuses to fight because he feels there are more intelligent ways of settling disputes, he is to be commended. This does not seem to be the case, however. It should be remembered that children vary considerably in their liking of and readiness for a fight when confronted with a situation in which a fight may be expected. Your son evidently doesn’t like physical combat and there is not much that you can do to change that situation. To heap ridicule or shame upon him will only increase his insecurity and make him even more loath to fight. You can encourage him to defend himself, however, and give him approval when he does so; his father may help if he teaches him how to box. It is especially important that he should have ample opportunities to play with boys of his own age and size. In the rough-andstumble of such play, he is likely to learn how to defend himself, especially if you encourage him to do so. If he spends most of his time playing with his sister, or playing by himself, it is not strange that he should shrink from a fight, especially if the outcome of the fight is somewhat in doubt! Let Them Whoop! Vt are hearing many complaints ■ br~jW~:iSMr?munOy—especially about the soarwhooping" late at night on the way homo from group festivities. How far should parents go in curbing the exuberance of youth? It's when there isn't any , _ whooping” that parent* need to become alarmed about their youth. As long as boys and girls go to group festivities and have a joyous, albeit rather noisy, time on the way home, there isn’t a great deal about which to be disturbed. After all, they are just normal youngsters. 'i Unless expressions of exuberance get out of all bounds of reason and propriety, therefore, I am not certain that parents should make much effort to curb tbs mthusiasses of youth. If we do not samonad our adolescents with too many restrictions and if they feel that we are trying to he fair and understanding, (hey are likely to listen to as when we feel It is wise to ’ gestious about the certain _to _ mi jndgaf pririlege® ^ others. Most young people, »or example, will curb their “whooping” when passing hospitals or homes in which people are known to be sick. If there are many complaints about teen-agers’ habits in your community, and tne complaints seem justified, it. may be because there are not sufficient opportunities for wholesome recreation. Wise and skilled youth leaders, employed by the community or the church for a recreational and general youth program, can do much to improve the habits of teen-agers. Help Them Obey You 1 am a very busy mother of three children, aged seven, five and two. My husband and I have always insisted on obedience and therein lies my problem. The children are sweet and good, but so often put up an argument when asked to do something—or when called in from play for dinner or bedtime. What are we doing wrong that makes them that way? I am not at all sure that you have anything particularly to worry about. In fact, there would be more cause for worry on your part if your children always obeyed promptly without any argument whatsoever. If they did so, it would be an indication either that they stood in great fear of you and your husband, which most certainly you do not Dr. Maynard’s new booklet.

It may be, however, that you accentuate their normal tendenc commands that you give them. Let me suggest that whenever possible, you do •so. m If children realize that we have a good reason for what we ask them to do, they are much more likely to obey without undue questioning than if our commands are given in a more or less peremptory manner which we falsely assume is our right because we are their parents. Even then, however, they may question our judgment at times. (Sometimes, rightly sol) It is important, also, that when you call them in from play you prepare them for the final summons. Give them a warning that within fifteen or twenty minutes, it will be time for them to come ia. This will enable them to bring their play to a more satisfactory close than if they are expected to ooose immediately when called without previous If they continue to argue needlessly, then all you eon do is to he firm, refuse to argue, and insist that now is the time that they must ooose in.

We all enjoy teasing the bankers and rural mail carriers and state highway men by telling them how we wish we had as many holidays as they do. It seems that every time someone got born or died or signed a state paper, the banks take holiday. And to touch off a neater note, if the holiday comes on Sunday as Jeff Davis’s birthday did on June 3, they just postpone the celebration for Monday. Nice going, if you can get by with it. It’s a shame someone hasn’t persuaded the farm work to schedule that way, so the farmer could get a holiday if the notion strikes. With summer here, the folks working in stores in neighboring towns start taking Wednesday afternoons off. It’ll catch a few of us toward the first of the summer before we get used to it. Even the best of us will get caught by driving to town and find after we get there that it is Wednesday afternoon and stores are closed. * * * A fellow was talking the other day of the plan that worked in his home town when he was a boy at the time the streets needed paving. The mayor had a reputation of hating to spend the town’s money. The streets had been good enough for days past and he saw no reason to waste money now hard-surfacing them. The young mem of the village ganged up. At the hour of the morning mail, as the mayor approached the post office to get his mail, the young men would conspicuously gather up stilts, make a great to-do of crossing the mud-holes on the stilts, park them by the lamp post before the post office, and after getting the mail, pick up the stilts and go back across the street. The plan was not working. The mayor still saw no reason for wasting the town’s money to pave streets.' He should have knqwn better. He should have realized that the young blood would persist until it won. The young men finally got him. One morning, as the mayor approached the post office, he saw the townspeople grinning broadly. He raised his eyes to see what they found amusing. Acrosp the street was hanging a large banner: “No fishing in the town of-- by order of the Mayor”, and along the street, stuck into the mud by every mudhole, was a fishing pole with a string hanging down into the dirty The, streets were paved'witfiTh' rf" few'weeks. A story is told of a young school teacher, in a one-room school, who found the school yard's hazardous place for the email 'children to play because of the rocks and gravel. She inaugurated a game. Lines were drawn the length of the yard at ever-increasing distances from the fence. On the fence-posts were placed bottles or tin cans. According to the pupil's age, he could stand on a certain line, take three turns, and see if he could knock the cans off. That was soon known as the cleanest school yard in the county. The fanner who owned the field next to the fence wasn’t so happy about the pile of rocks and gravel, but H was too late when he found out what was going on. “There are lots of ways of killing a cat besides choking it with butter.” ——XTitllfiBMiilferffiili-rrt tftrris-rr-i 'i - Northern (Virginia and Maryland.

Culpeper, Virginia Your Social Security Today a true story of the part social security played in the life of the Merriam family—Mr. and Mrs., Michael age 14, and Susan age 10. The names used are not the actual names but the' facts are true. The first scene of the story is in the Merriam home; the second, the field office of the Social Security Administration. The Merriams were a proud and happy family the day my story begins. They had just arrived home from the graduation of Michael at , the Grammar School. They discussed the fine speech he made and the commencement exercises in general. They expressed high hopes for Michael and Mr. M\rriam seemed very thankful that he was in a good position to help him through High School and later College. This graduation picture is no different from thousands of similar situations all over the United States for schools are closing. But in the curious mingling of events which we call “Fate”, trouble lies in store for the Merriams. The morning after this happy event, Mr. Merriam leaves for hi3 work looking forward to his return home for his wife tells him she is having roast beef and apple pie for dinner. But—he never returned alive. He is killed on his way h^me. Tragedy enters another home 'at a time when everything seems brightest. The plan for the family is completely changed. A week later, Mrs. Merriam and the Children take council to determine what is next in store for them. Michael says someone from the social, security office talked to their class about social security. He remembers this person said something about payments for their mothers in case their fathers died. Mrs. Merriam, as a result of this information, says she will visit the social security office the next day. Mrsr. Merriam calls at the field office and the claims assistant talks to her about the employment of her husband j rtheir children under 18; their birth certificates; her marriage certificate—all needed in developing her claim to the benefits. Mr. Merriam had averaged $225 a month since January 1, 1937. Mrs. Merriam is told that she will get $74 a month until Michael is 18. After that, $53 a month until Susan is 18. Mrs. Merriam’s expression shows relief. She can see her way clear to keep Michael and Susan with her and in school for, with the insurance her husband left plus social security benefits, she actually has LEE ROSENBERG MEN’S FLORSHEIM SHOES . special in price SUMMER WOVEN SHOES PLORSHEIMS Ideal for warm weather, cool, well-styled, comfortable, priced reasonably LEE ROSENBERG —*---L_" VARIED ASSORTMENT all sizes of WOMEN’S SANDALS in white and colon: from $2.95 - *» $10.95 LEE ROSENBERG Daris Street CULPEPER “security”. Since the passage of the 1950 Amendments to the Social Security Act, Mrs. Merriam’s monthly check for herself and two children has been increased from $74 a month to $123.80. Michael will soon be 18. At that time she will receive $92.80 a month, instead of $53, until Susan is 18. Mrs. Merriam will not be 65 when Susan is 18 but when she is, if she has not remarried, she will receive $46.40 the rest of her life. THIS & THAT by emily b. miller Cousin Lyle Miller said he enjoyed the warm weather because of the bees and birds, wonder if he has been enjoying them during the hot spell? * * * School is out Friday, for three glorious months with today thrown in as a holiday for good measure. June is certainly a month of joy for brides, college graduates and school children, the rest of us just sit around trying to cool off a little bit. * * * The other day a friend of mine sent me a story “What is a Girl?” I believe the readers of “This and That” will enjoy reading this short story, especially the mothers of daughters. Little girls are the nicest things that happen to people. They are born with a little bit of angelshine about them and though it wears thin sometimes, there is always enough left to lasso your heart—even when they are sitting in the mud, or crying temperamental tears, or parading up the street in mother’s best clothes. A little girl can be sweeter (and badder) oftener than anyone else in the world. She can jitter around and stomp, and make funny noises and frazzle your nerves, yet just when you open your mouth, she stands there demure with that special look in* her eyes. A girl is Innocence playing in the mud, Beauty standing on its head, and Motherhood dragging a doll by the foot. God borrows from many creatures to make a little girl. He uses the song of a bird ,the squeal of a pig, the stubbornness of a mule, the antics of oa-monkey, the spryness of a grasshopper, the curiosity of a cat, the slyness of a fox, the softness of a kitten. And to top it off He adds the mysterious mind of a woman. A little girl likes new shoes, party dresses, small animals, dolls, makebelieve, ice cream, make-hp, going visiting, tea parties, and one •boy. She doesn’t care so much for visitors, boys in general, large dogs, hand-me-downs, straight chairs, vegetables, snow suits, or staying in the front yard. She is loudest when you are thinking, prettiest when she has provoked you, busiest at bedtime, quietest when you want to show her off, 'and most flirtatious when she absolutely must not get the best of you again. She can muss up your home, your hair and your dignity—spend your money, your time and your temper—then just when your patience is ready to crack, her sunshine peeks through and you’ve lost again. Yes, she is a nerve-racking nuisance, just a noisy bundle of mischief. But when your dreams tumble down and the world is a , mess, when it seems jrou are pretty much of a fool after all, she can make you a king when shd climbs on your knee and whispers, “I love you best of all!” Be tir* yoj FUSSELLS ICECREAM FUSSELL-YOUNG tCE CREAM COMPANY Culpeper, Virginia - CHICKS C.O.D. - PAY POSTMAN F.O.B.

Add tanks, planes, ships and ammo — and think what it takes to equip the whole nation for defense. Our enemies laughed at our World War II production goals. But American business topped the figures that scrmed fantastic. And America’s business-managed electric companies provided a recordbreaking power supply to do the job. Today,'new production miracles are in the making. The electric companies have doubled the amount of electricity available before the last war. And they’re still stepping up the pace. That’s why it seems strange to hear some people say “the government’’could do a better job of running the electric light and power business. It seems stranger still when you realize that this idea leads straight to socialism. * No American can ever forget that when the nation needs production strength it’s business management, as always, that gets the job done. The U.S. won’t go socialistic «o long as Americans recognise that government taking over a business or industry "for keeps” is socialism, no matter what reasons are given for it. • "MEET CORLISS ARCHER"— Sundayt—CSS—9 f.

The church was known as Chestnut Grove Baptist Church for a few years. Charter members of the congregation number 10 men and 12 women. Deacons elected were James Goff, J. N. Doffermyer, James Smith. The present building was constructed in 1887 and remodeled in 1907 with an addition to the original building. John S. Hughes gave the lumber and the members went to the woods to cut the timber. Enough tin for a new roof was given by John Smith. A large stained glass window was given by Margaret Hughes as a memorial. Additional property was given the church for a cemetery by W. W. Newman. Recently Venetian blinds, a pulpit railing and flower stands were given—as memorials. Several dozen hymnals were given last year by the members. W. A.
