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 500 Years of Printing Over 500 years ago Johann Gutenberg set up the first printing shop at Strasburg — so history states. There have been changes in the printing business since 1449 that would match the changes in any other business—farming, for instance—during the same number of years. Aside from the mecnanics of printing (interesting mainly to a printer), changes have taken place in the books printed. The first printing was the Bible. Today printing of the Bible is still a large portion, but most printed matter strays far from the Scriptures. From the first printing-of the Bible to the “Freedom of the Press” today there stands a long history of printing, its use and -abuse.' Just ..as yse recognize the., price paid for our freedom of the press, we realize that it has been an immense struggle through the past 500 years for a man’s right to use printing for his own good. In earlier American history men were imprisoned for daring to criticize the government. That sounds odd to us to think that our freedom-lo>ing forefathers, who had suffered at Valley Forge, would permit infringement - upon their rights. It’s. 150 years later now, and our American printing press is as free as any in the world. The “freedom of the press” today is a costly heritage. Today when a man wishes to “blow off,” he does so in a newspaper. He lets off steam in the direction of any1 other man—from the President of the United States on down—signs his name to it and has it printed in the paper. Sometimes he gets in hot water for it; sometimes the fellow on the receiving end of the abuse laughs it off and forgets it. The paper itself stands on middle ground. It may completely disagree—or thoroughly agree — with the sentiments expressed by the writer of a “letter to the editor,” but agreeing or disagreeing has no factor in the publishing. If the paper chooses, it may decide against the publication, hiding behind some phrase like “no space available” or “contrary to the good of the community,” or some other excuse. Of course, if the writer decides he wants to pay for the publicatkm as adver* tising matter, then the paper (would have to squirm considerably to get out of printing the letter. Like all privileges, often the “freedom of the press” is abused. When it is recalled that a man —Tyndale by name—was killed for printing the Bible, it shames most of us when we see how the printing freedom is used today. It boils down to the fellow’s famous statement: “I may not agree with what you say, but I’ll fight for your right to say it.” Why “County” News Notes Several times of late citizens of the county have been heard to ask, “Why put all the News Notes together? Why not have each community in a separate place with appropriate heading?” Once this statement was heard: “I have to read them all to find out iwhat has happened in my own community.” All this discussion demands an answer. It can be explained best by one statement made by a county man: “I saw the names of people I had forgotten were still living in the county.” Note the name of the paper: Rappahannock News —- not Wash, ington, Sperryville,' Woodville, Flint Hill, Castleton, Huntly, Feola, Slate Mills, F.T., or any of the others alone—it’s the whole county. Our neighboring counties have the same in, the newspaper’s name: Fauquier. Democrat, Warren Sentinel, Page News and Cou. rier, and one of the papers of Culpeper bears the county’s name. Each of these counties has one community which is much larger than any other in the county (Warrenton, Front Royal, Luray, Culpeper) and so the county seat for them is the main part of the 1 news. In Rappahannock this is not the case. Washington, the county seat, is no larger than Sperryville. Subways and streetcars don’t keep any of us awake in any community in the county. No sin* gle community is all-powerful, so we are all one county. The newspaper should have \*The Time Hat Come* the Walras said! . . uitoimmm iimmimNin •tiUTNtutiiiimm. Tuesday will be Uncle Starsand-Stripes Sammy’s birth day. Let's see, we’re 174 years old. It was a brave group of men who signed tjie Declaration of Independence. However, bravery did not cease with them. Pause and reflect. Come this 4th of July, Uncle Sam’s nieces and nephews will bravely face and endure hardships which make the founding fathers’ convention look like a tea-party. Did John Hancock have to take the family to the beach? How would one of the Lees have survived the ordeal of the early rising, lunch packing and collecting all the equipment to start the day? Would Franklin’s bravery have stood the test in facing the traffic of the holiday crowd? The brave signers of the Declaration didn’t have to take the family to the horse show. Neither did they have to face a picnic lunch with ants. No, our brave forebears just faced the wrath of England, not the ill-tempers of a tired, sun-burned family at the end of a holiday. * * * Now the ladies are to appear in a magazine article. It was thought that some of the excitement should be beginning to die down:—now that the election was nearly three weeks past • but no. A gentleman is in the county today interviewing the victorious women who are slated to govern the town of Washington for the next couple of years. Some folks have been heard to remark that the publicity is good for the county, that it will give other people a chance to know how wonderful a place Rappahannock is. On the reverse side, some citizens think it is unnecessary for others to know about the county, or they will come in in droves and take over. In a few years, perhaps, we shall have to divide the local folks into two classes: those who were here B. F. (before fame) and those who came seeking to live in the great feminine county. Up in Jenkins Hollow those new folks will have to be classed with the old-timers, for they are already established. Looks like we will be listed as those hardy enough to live through the petticoat regime and those who allowed it to happen to the county. * * * This weather ain’t fit for nothin’ but going up to Old Hollow and going swimming. On numerous occasions loudmouthed \,.ators have been heard to extol* the virtues of work; they’ll even give its benefits. They proclaim long and strong about such drivel as “how work beautifies the soul”—ad nauseam—and that’s all right. When these hot days come, they can have my “share; I’m opposed to labor, anyway. been called “Rappahannock County News,” but the paper is not wide enough to print that long a name. It’s “County News Notes” because it’s the county’s paper. iiiiiiiiiiic]iimiiiiiii[]imiiiiiiioiiiimiiii(]i REAL ESTATE 1 have prospect* for All Kind* of Property Outside Connection* W. A.

Marsh of Washington, has completed a^farm pond of approximately 2.(f acres. The pond is located close enough to the main dwelling and other out buildings to be used in case of fire. The exposed part of the fill, spillway and other exposed areas around the pond will be limed, fertilised, mulched and seeded to a mixture of orchard grass and ladino clover. The proper number and species of fish for stocking the pond will be made available to Mr. Marsh through the Culpeper Soil Conservation District. Rappahannock county farmers recently developing conservation farm plans include G. G. Thornhill, 201 acres, Round Hill; and William C. Hall, 105 acres, Washington. Soil Conservation Service headquarters for Culpeper and Rappahannock counties is in the Compton building in Culpeper. Local technicians are at your service to, assist you in developing a complete conservation farm plan. Elmer J. Nolls completed a oneacre farm pond this week on his farm near Washington. Mr. Nolls who also operates a business inAlexandria, stated that the pond would be used for watering livestock, fire protection and recreational purposes for the family. Soil Conservation Service technicians assisted Mr. Nolls in locating the pond site and supervised the construction. Equipment for constructing the pond was rented frdm a ^contractor." The” proper number and species of fish will be made available through the Culpeper Soil Conservation District. Fish are usually placed in ponas aner me pona nas completely filled with water and it is determined that no severe leaks have developed. The Welch brothers, Flint Hill, and Li. L. Parrish, Estes, have established contour lines preparatory to plowing strips for seeding alfalfa. The importance of esestablishing alfalfa in contour strips on sloping fields cannot be over-stressed. A properly prepared alfalfa seed bed is very subject to sheet erosion. Many unsatisfactory stands of alfalfa result from sheet erosion and fingure gullies. The gullies also hinder harvesting operations. Not only is soil lost but lime, fertilizer and organic matter are likewise washed away. "Erosion losses on long sloping fields are enormous,” said Downing Wdod, prominent farmer and orchardist near Washington, and Rappahannock representative on the Culpeper Soil Conservation District Board of Supervisors.
