Here 'tis: “The .most relaxing recreating forces are: a healthy religion, sleep, music, and laughter. Have faith in God, learn to sleep well, love good music, see the sunny side of lile . . . and health and happiness will be yours.” Now how about some kind soul whose body is good at lettering doing that quotation up for me on a nice piece of something "suitable for framing so we can hang it here in the office?

It will just encourage his begging, and besides be will get the idea that everyone reads his Rapp-Chats column pljbm down to the end.) ■ 40 4-H Campers Left Monday For Week's Stay At 'Fort Valley Camp With lusty yells of farewell, 40 4-H campers with their leaders piled on the bus at 12:30 Monday and steared their course toward Powell’s Port Valley Camp near Woodstock. The campers began their week of fun by selecting s Big Chief; a Scribe, and lesser chiefs. The youths are divided into tribes and tribe names are chosen. Throughout the week there is heated but friendly rivalry between these tribes in an attempt to pile up the most number of notches. Each morning the tribes attend classes in a body. Classes this year are Nature Class; Handicraft Class; and Recreation Class. For the sports-loving campers there are swimming, game playing, and soft ball games. Each night the campers gather around the camp fire for vespers and song singing. Stunts, challenges and talents are prepared by each tribe for the night program in the main hall. The week at Powel’s Fort Valley is a much awaited and eagerly anticipated event of the 4-H club members. — Miss Janet Sollenberger is assistant camp director. Other leaders accompanying the youth are William Seville, William Lyne, Barbara Gentry, and Gladys Reid.

Governor Battle spoke first on the program of the afternoon, saying that a while back he would have welcomed the opportunity to greet such a group of people, but since a future ejection was no point of emphaair in Ms position, he was going to let the others do the talking. ^, v,, The same good-humored joking of the GovernoV was the general run of the pleasant company of the holiday group. Senator Byrd spoke on the seri. ousness of the war situation and reiterated his position in standing firm fop any measures to promote, support' to any war effort. The Senator told the story of the sta, tistician in Washington who had stated that he, Senator Byrd, had * voted 56% with the Republicans during the past year, sad only 44% with the Democrats- “This I deny,” said the Senator, “My ' name begins with “B” and I vote first, the Republicans vote with me.” He wrung quick applause when be said he had always been a Democrat, but he had been and was a Jeffersonian Democrat—not a New Deal Democrat. Approval mot the' Senator’s statement defending private enterprise and his thorough opposition to the Brannan plan. The Senator introduced "Brother Tom" Byrd, saying that Mr. Byrd would speak on spraying practices for orchards. The brother got around to that subject after he had poked some fun at his Senator brother. "He plants the trees," stated the brother, "and then goes back to Washington, leaving me as Mo. 1 man of the demolition crew ... Every year in the springtime, when most of us are getting a good case of spring fever and complete inertia, the Senaotr gets the urge to plant trees. He’s a modern Johnny Appleseed. One year he went on a real binge and planted 40,000, and since that year, 1938, he has just planted a thousand-or-so each year., “The planting is not bad,’’ continued Tom Byrd, "but eventually those trees grow and get apples on them. That’s where I come in. The Senator leaves instructions before he takes off for Washington. Each set of instructions is prefaced with No. 1—Don’t spend so much money, and the others will be: raise a clean crop, and don’t spoil the foliage.” Among the group present from Rappahannock were James W. Fletcher, Clifford Miller, C. E. Johnson, Jr., Lucio Kilby, Charles Wood Keyser, Wade H. Massie, Joe D. Keyser, J. E. Keyser, Jr., L. J. Turner, Mrs. Will Keyser, . Mrs. H. M. Keyser, Mrs. J. E. ' Keyser, Hubert Foster, G. W. Smith, J. Rodes Brown, and Mr. and Mrs. James E. Yates. H. D. Club* Entertain Youth Last Week . Two Home Demonstration clubs entertained the youth the communities last week inline with the club's project for the year. Sixty-five “Recreation for Youth" children attended the pic-« nic held in Jack Miller's woods Thursday. According to the number of hot dogs, cookies, marshmallows and other food consumed, and the excited yells while games were the center of attraction,'the v children (and the grown-ups) declared the picnic a success. This outing was sponsored by the Home Demonstration Club fora the children of Washington. Forty people gathered in the Flint Hill school yard Saturday evening for a picnic sponsored by the Flint Hill Home Demonstration club. The 4-H club members and their friends were invited.Engagement Announced Mr. and Mrs. A., Waverly Yowi ell of Peola Infills, have announc> ed the engagement of their dauqji; ter, Elizabeth Jane to Thomas Edward Hall, Jr.,' of Richmond, son of Mr. and Mrs. -T.

The -wedding will take place in | October. . ■ -.j:-. Shiloh Baptitti Hold 156th Annual Session The 156th annual meeting of the Shiloh Baptist Association was very successful, from all accounts. The “’Sociation” has various connotations in Rappahannock county, one outstanding being the traditional (though awkwardly phrased) “all day dinner on the grounds”! Modern tempo has not made this custom entirely obsolete, according to enthusiastic gourmets who attended the latest gathering at Reynolds Memorial Baptist church last Wednesday and Thursday in Sperryville; but there are occasional nostalgic (reminders that “It’s not like the old meetings when we fed everyone and his cousin for miles around.” Few of the good ladies even attempt to express regret; besides, what customs remain today that are not changed or changing? The wistfulness in the following remark overheard might apply tq many other time-honored customs which, reluctantly, have become more streamlined: “The yorld| - seemed so safe wh 99 -we used JM* enjoy the old Associations.” Shiloh Association is an organization made up of 41 Bapltisti churches from the counties of Rappahannock, Culpeper, Madison, and part of Greene, with a membership of about 6500. For the benefit of those who have never attended an Association, it might be described in modern parlance as a Religious Co-operative, since it is an organization of .churches in which the individual churches co-operate. The meetings are for the purpose of reviewing and comparing the past pear’s work: both the local work as exemplified by the individual churches, and the state and national w^rk as carried on in the Virginia Baptist General Association and in the Southern Baptist Convention. The Association has no authority over the churchel. Each church elects its delegates to represent it for any recommendation or committment Of co-operation. This was James Atkins’ second year as Moderator of the Association. Due to the death of his sister, Miss Margaret Atkins, he was unable to fulfill his appoint-'' ment; and Rev. Ragland, associate moderator from Ruckersville, took his place. Tradition has it that for two years a layman is to be elected,' and then a minister must serve as moderator; therefore, Reverend Franklin Cale of Culpeper has been elected for next year. Over 350 people heard this year’s missionary address given by Reverend Paul B. Watlington of the First Baptist church of Orange, and the temperance lecture by Dr. Holtzclaw, professor of religious philosophy of University of Richmond. The Association went on record to support, in part, the Spruce Grove Mission in Madison county. ReV. Reeves Ferguson, pastor of the Madison field of Baptist churches, gave the annual sermon this year. The minister who delivers this sermon is chosen according to seniority, and next year’s annual sermon will be given by Rev. Paul Thompson of Sperryville. The last year in which the Association had met at SperryVille was in 1931. It met here for the first time on September 2, 1814. Next year’s1 meeting will be held at Bethel church, Culpeper county, on the Wednesday and Thursday following the second Sunday in August. Five Rappahannock Boys To Show At Orange Hog Market Show Junior Market hog shows will he held in Orange, September 5, and in Bristol, September, accord* ing to an announcement by D. E. Brower, 4-H liVestock specialist at VPI. Rappahannock 4-H boys show-l_ ing at Orange, are Jacob Sisk, Peter Estes, Archie Bailey, Jr., Dudley Wood, and Bobby Carter. Brower also announced that two other hog shows will. be held in “September, one at Front Royal, and the other at Salem. No dates have been set. NAMES OF OLD HOMES Rappahannock News is trying to compile a list of the homes in the county by name. Each old estate and most of the new ones have their own identifying names, and the paper would like a complete and correctly spelled list. Please call Washington 2851 and give the name of your farm, be sure it is spelled correctly with hyphens, or any other form used in- writing : ^ - .= • »****-««».**.es-«4tee>*.*-.#***® , Soil Saver Notes G. M. Black, manager of Mt. Vernon Stock Farm, Sperryville, is establishing new alfalfa on one of the old stands that has thinned out. Mr. Black stated that the field was quite sloping and that the new alfalfa was being established in contour strips rather than plowing the long slope at one time. Mr. Black also stated that past experience had taught him not to plow long, steep slopes all at one time. “The cost of lime, fertiliser and seed are far too expensive to allow them to wash away, not to say anything about the costly soil loss,” said Black. Several farmers in the Culpeper Soil Conservation District have reported finding numerous dead fish floating on the surface of their ponds. The technicians of the district would appreciate all such findings being reported to their respective offices. The reason for the fish dying is brought about by the apparent lack of oxygen in the water. There are numerous lectors that contribute to this condition over which the fanner has ' little control.^''Although" this condition is serious in a few ponds there is nothing to be alarmed about. The fish have not been poisoned ns many would think; they hive suffocated as would a human from whom oxygen has been withheld 1951 Whftftt Allotment Announced for Rapp'k Rappahannock county fanners may plant 2047 acres of wheat this fall for the 1951 crop, it was announced this week by H. S. Barksdale, PMA county committee chairman. That acreage allotment is about the same as the county had fot this year’s crop and la based on recent wheat production history. The county allotment is apportioned among farms within the county on the basis of tillable areas, crop-rotation practicesr type of soil, and topography. Thh chairman emphasized that the allotments seek to give each wheat farmer a chance to grow his fair share of the needed production. A. small part of the county allotment is available for apportionment to farms on which wheat was not planted during the past three years. - Notices of individual farm allotments for the 1951 wheat crop will be sent to growers throughout the county, Mr. Barksdale said, and any questions regarding the program should be taken up with the County PMA Committee at the earliest opportunity. Mr. Barksdale urged growers to seed within their wheat allotments in order to be eligible for 1951 wheat price supports. Bush R. Mills Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at 3 o’clock from Forest Grove Baptist church for Bush R. Mills who died Monday morning at his home at Viewtown. Rev. M. E.

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 A Teen-Ager’s View Of The War WAR—the word looms ahead along with its physical experiences. A few weeks ago I did not bother with the word. It did not affect me. Today I have analyzed War, its meaning and effects. Perhaps I realize war due to the fact that all of a sudden I came to my senses and I see I cannot avoid the word for I am of the generation which will face war. The generation which will be shot, tramped by crazed multitudes. The generation who will be slapped in the face by the word. War again and again, until we are blind. So blind that we cannot see the right road until it is too late, and we will make the same mistakes our forefathers made, the same mistakes our children will make. Until men are so war-weary that they cannot possibly lift an arm to ’each other. Until the Word'fighting makes them. double in pain. Only then can that mysterious and much sought after word, Peace, take the situation in hand. Until then men will live and die. The human race will dwindle and perish. All will change physically and mentally. Unaffected only are the mountains, nothing said or done can affect them. The silly mistakes of man-kind will not cause them pain. Their contours may change but still they remain silent, serene, haughty, majestic, superior. The sands of the earth will be shaken. Their brains addled by plows and machines but still they survive the onslaught. Only these can remain untouched by screams of agony, shouts of mercy. The whimpering of the dying, weak. The grim silent suffering of the dying, brave. Yes, I will see war through unwilling eyes, wiser than now but still unexperienced. I will plow knee deep through blood. I will see my friends plunge into battle, to falter, to forge ahead, to fall, perhaps, I too, will fall, forgetting to rise but I face the future confident that I will finally find peace, and when war comes I think I will go immediately into nurses’ training. To do my part for my country, America, is my duty. More than that my desire, yes, when the time comes, you will find me there, and with God’s help and blessing I will be ready. Anne Lewis Litsey (age 15) As I See Heaven By Anne Lewis Litsejr I see Heaven perhaps differently from others, perhaps mistakenly but it is my conception of the Kingdom of God, and I believe in it. The golden walls of Heaven; sunshine that pours in streaming, glorious cadence over the earth, protectively surrounding the Kingdom from temptation, evil and pain. Each street paved with truth, bravery, staunchness of spirit and vigor. Each flower a bloom of love; each angel a kind act done in a world where unkindness prevails. Each day a day of serene joy, different from a worldly day of chaos and turmoil; each note in the celestial choir a kind, thoughtful, comforting blessing, loving, tender or understanding word spoken in erathly conversation. Each person as rich as the next, their hearths overflowirtg with, not money, but love, charity and faith, over all is matchless wisdom coming from knowledge of God. - And last, not because God should be last, but because I cannot defiqe or compare God, is our Heavenly Father, loving and comforting, patiently waiting for a , tremulous world to tire of itself, wise atlast to accept a life everlasting. Apple Marketing Clinic* Three apple marketing clinics, designed to further efficient sell* ing of high Quality Vrginia fruit, have been scheduled for August. -- Fred Dreiling, tree fruits ipecialist at VPI, said the clinics vpll be held August 16 in Roanoke, ' August 17 in Waynesboro, and August 18 in Winchester. Participating will be fruit growlers, buyers and distributors of chain and independent stores, professional agricultural workers, and representatives of the Virginia Apple Commission. Some of the topics slated for discussion are expected processors’ needs for apples this year, various methods of packaging, methods of increasing sales of Virginia apples In southern states, and market outlook information. HMMMM gM ‘Th* Timm Hat Come,9 tk. Walsui caid . A host of the youngsters are at camp. Some parents are enjoying the peace and quiet. Some just think they are, but letters are already going across the mountain to the offspring. Some of them will get homesick, no doubt, but they\ will return chattering like magpies of all the events of the week, beginning one tale and superimposing a second and third, tfntil the whole business is incoherent. Give them time, and you’ll come somewhere near finding out what happened—and. rest assured they will not tell you of all the mischief they concocted. And if you discover for certain that they were at camp all week and got into not even one tiny speck of badness, call for the doctor in a hurry. When a youngster can’t find any trouble to get mixed into, either he’s ill or slightly off the normal path, and maybe his head needs examining. * * * “What’s the ..news at your house?” inquired the Rappahannock News of a housewife Tuesday. “My husband’s sick in bed,” came the reply. "We’ll put that in the paper, then.” “No, please don’t, there might be too many people who would enjoy knowing,, it.” Suppose you let me go out, come in, and begin again. Why should we - fnjey anyone’s poor health? Or perhaps he’s one of those men who seems to think it’s a personal disgrace to be sick—a sign of sissiness or something akin. Maybe this is a good time to say: judge other people by yourself. Personally, I don’t enjoy knowing anyone is ill. This is the season of locusts, protracted meetings, cool. nights, (it’s a little early for mushrooms) dog-gone hard work for farmers, and the visits of city cousins in the country. All these items fall into the category of regular events and are cause for little comment, except, perhaps, the visitor from the city. If befalls our lot to see again the thrill of introducing some of those pore benighted yankees to the previously unknown delights of fried apples, cornbread made with white cornmeal—and please not sugar!—and hot biscuits and salt-riBing. Isn’t it pathetic to think of the thousands of people who think they have lived the more abundant life, and have never known good food?. The Governor’s Safety Council is working like mad and over-time to try and do something about the wholesale murder accomplished in hte State by auto accidents. What is needed is some more safe drivers like unto a few known in every community. They are so terrible that everyone gives them plenty of room, or else gets clear over in the ditch (or out into the adjoining field) and lets them have all the space necessary. Mo^t drivers are too trusting. They assume the other fellow is going to follow all the rules and regulations. There’s the fatal error. What you should do is expect the worse. Be like the fellow who had just been fleeced in a gyp game, “I wouldn’t trust my own brother now without a thorough investigation.” Never trust any driver. The roads are safe, but they aren’t fool-proof; or, as has been said often, “A genius made the car, but they let fools drive them.” If you don’t believe it just stand on the corner <in front of our office and w^tch some of the drivers make the turn. Sometimes you wonder how they make it. * ¥ * The classified ads are always a feature of a county weekly newspaper with many readers. Two which should have appeared this week will have to be put here because the people said they wanted to put them in but never actually authorized them. “1 want some ole-time damsons,” said a housewife. “The preserves kind for caramel pies—none of these modem J)lue plums. They may be all right, I doh’t’know, but at my house the folks howl if. winter Baseball UNDER LIGHTS NIGHTS AT 8:00 4 miles from Culpeper on Orange.

They are hard to find, and people don’t like to part with them if they have one.” Mister, I wouldn’t, know. I try occasionally to play a radio, and my success is nothing to brag about then; there is no intention here of tackling one of t.^DS*e fancy gadgets.. * * * So the new princess in England is going to wear hand-me-downs. That’s going to be a novelty to royalty, but most of us will be glad to explain to our English kin (only mine’s Scotch) some of the advantages and disadvantages of inheriting the clothes of the older members of the family. There’s something very comforting in knowing that you do not have to be too careful about the latest acquired suit of clothes, since the patches and darns indicate that it does not merit prideful care. However, those same patches and darns will remind you to exercise care of another kind to prevent embarrassment. To give proper respect to the years of the clothing is a necessity or you may find yourself exposed to the elements in spots you would prefer to have covered. It’s right nice, though, to think that now each one of us has something in common with royalty— yep, me and the English Princess -wear VHand-Hie-fidWnsT T*r" *“■ FOOD FREEZING No. 13 Sweet corn can be frozen successfully either on the cob, or as whole kernel corn. Whole kernel corn takes up much less space in the freezer, but some people prefer to freeze the whole ear. Select corn that is at the proper maturity for table use. The kernels should be well formed, juicy, and sweet. Do not wait until thd kernels get starchy. Pick the corn when you have time to process it immediately. It will lose quality if you pick it and permit it to stand around before being frozen. Even an hour or two can cause undesirable changes. Husk the corn and trim off the immature kernels and wormy ends. Use a dry vegetable brush to remove all the silk. Wash in cold water. Blanch the ears in boiling water. Blanch 7 minutes for small diameter ears, 9 minutes for medium diameters, and 11 minutes for large diameter ears. Cool at once in cold water and drain.

Richards, director jjfa the, Division of War Veterans Claims, and department service officer of the American Legion, announced that' Veterans admin* istration regulations relating to the presumption of service-connection for active pulmonary tuberculosis have been changed to provide for those persons who manifested evidence of active tuberculosis within three years following discharge from active service. The * showing of active tuberculosis to meet the requirements of the new regulations must necessarily be evidenced by a report of an examination made by a physician. World War II .veterans who show evidence of the existence of active tuberculosis within three years following separation will, in the absence of evidence to the. contrary, be held to have incurred their condition either in service or had it aggravated thereby. Veterans who participated in the Spanish-American War, the - Philippine - insurrection and the Boxer Rebellion as well as men who served during World War II are included under the new law. World War veterans are not affected by the new regulations because provision was made for them under the World War Veterans Act of 1924, Richards pointed out. Richards said those veterans who have been denied serviceconnection under previous laws would be reconsidered automatically*, ,§nd that it would not -ba,c n,ecessary>for them to write the Veterans Administration about the matter. However, if any veteran desires assistance in the consideration of his case he should contact Edward M. Mathews, area director of the division who serves this territory and has offices located in Front Royal.

W. Woodson, Jr., Superintendent of State Police and Executive Chairman oi the Governor’s Highway Safety Committee, issued a plea for more cooperation and asked them not to expect immunity to traffic laws simply because they were servicemen. Col. Woodson stated that he was fully aware of the sacrifices men in uniform were making or would be called upon to make and the frequent necessity of their returning to their bases at a given time. However he pointed out that in 1949, 81 of the drivers in Virginia’s 706 fatar accidents were servicemen and that 10 more died as pedestrians. No statistics were available as to others killed as passengers but loss of life in this category is known to be heavy. This year, he said, is seeing much the same trend. Military personnel are often attempting to stretch their liberty or leave as long as possible by speeding, he continued, and thus expose themselves and others to its attendant dangers. When apprehended they almost invariably plead ignorancg of local laws and expect leniency on this ground and because they are members of the armed forces. An overseas veteran himself Col. Woodson stated emphatically that any member of the Department -stands-ready- to^jehder, s£r« vicemen all assistance possible and practical lbut dangerous driving simply could not be condoned any more than it can when a private citizen is involved.

LIME is still a limited faetor in legume growth in thousands of farms attempting to grow livestock. Better have your soil tested for acidity now and spread enough LIME this summer to correct it.
