George Washington Baptized by Primitive Baptist Chaplain (TIm following article was contributed by Mr. Lostor Yates.) Elder Charles W. Vaughn, pastor of Hopewell Old School Baptist church, recently read to his , congregation an interesting bit of history concerning the baptism of George Washington. It was from “The Witness of Spirits” by James |Wi Bachery, in part as follows) George Washington, the father of our country, was reared in an Episcopalian home, and had learned the way more perfectly, and when he saw Elder Gano, his chaplain, who was holding a meeting with soldiers, and taking candidates to the river to baptize them, he exclaimed, “I have never been scripturally baptized,” and demanded immersion at the hands of his chaplain. Elder Gano immersed George Washington in the Potomac River in the presence of about 42 persons.” Elder John Gano was born in Hopewell, NJ., July 22, 1727. He was of French descent, and received his education at Hopewell Academy. He Bas ordained to the ministry in Hopewell Church, May 16, 1764. From there he moved to Morristown, and after two years to Yadkin, N.C., where he aucceeded in establishing a large church, which was discontinued during the war of 1776. Elder Gano then Returned North with his family, owing to the ravages of the Indians. Mrs. Mary Gano, 99 years old, the gxjeat-grand* mother of former Secretary of State, William J. Bryan, is a granddaughter of Elder Gano. Copied from the Church of God History—page 234—compiled by Elder Lee Hanks, also see the historian, Elder R. H. Pittman. Copied from the Advoctte and Messenger, 89th year, No. 9, September 1960, Albert F. Sudduth, Editor, Kimball, Virginia.

Petersen last week stating he had been shot twice in the leg, above his ankle. The leg was broken »nd t henerves and muscles of his leg shattered. Lt. Petersen arrived on the West Coast the first of this week. In a telephone call to his wife he said he expected to be in Walter Reed Hospital by the end of this week. He also told his wife she would have a lot of shopping to do as he lost everything in Korea." Business Course At Rappahannock High The business course at Rappahannock High School is not to' take the place of the professional business school in the pupil’s lives. Courses in bookkeeping, typing and shorthand that are being offered for the first time in the consolidated high school are introductory and pre-vocational in nature. They* not*- Intended to take the place of business courses in full time business colleges or other advanced schools. In short, the course at the new high school is not given in competition with a business college or any other institution whose primary purpose is to fit the persons attending with complete training for the business field which he plans to enter. In the high school, courses in the three business subjects named are open to juniors and seniors, to be taken along with English, history, biology, math or any other required subjects totaling sixteen or more units for the four years spent in higli| school. In regular full-time business schools, the pupil concentrates on business courses for about eight hours a day. In high school, the pupil studies the same subjects not more than one or two hours a day. In some -cases it is true that the typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping learned in high school may allow an unusually gifted pupil the minimum equipment needed to start in some job where the requirements are not too strict or exacting. The high school course in business, however, is not, and should not be mistaken for, a substitute for etght or ten months concentrated study and practice in a good business college. The pupil cannot expect it, his parents must not expect it, and his employer has no right to expect it. Barksdale Cites Values In Erosion Prevention Do rainstorms work for or against you? H. S. Barksdale, chairman of the Rappahannock PMA County Committee says that they work for the farmer >who prepares his land right and against the farmer who leaves land unprotected. He says rain can damage land in several ways. It can cut gullies and wash off rich topsoil when land is left bare. This run-off carries away organic matter until only the sterile subsoil remains. Recent tests conducted by the U. S. Department of Agriculture show how a good sod can check erosion. In a 15-minute period, an acre of land with a good grass cover took up 2.36 inches of water and moved only about a half-ton of soil by splashing. The same test showed that an unprotected acre in the same time took up only .1 inch of water and 70 tons of soil was moved by splash erosion. “These are things for farmerv. to think about these days as hafw vested crops are coming off the land,” Mr. Barksdale says. “Getting land protected by * good plant growth of cover crop or pasture will pay 'cHvidends'in dollars. The Agricultural Conservation. Program-seeks to help fanners in -this objective.” RECOVERS FROM FALL W. E. Duncan of Amissville is recuperating' from the effects, of • painful accident suffered some weeks ago. While riding in a low chair in his wagon, the wagon struck a rock and Mr. Duncan was thrown out. Holding to the. reins to prevent the horses from running away, he was pinned against the wagon as the horses backed up. It was thought at first that possibly he had crushed his, ribs or torn them loose from the spine, but he is recovering nicely ,at the present time. | Recent guests in ' the Duncan home have included two grand* children, two great-grandchildren, and a daughter from North Carolina, and Mrs. Margaret Emerson and two children of Washington, n, C.

Every community has its own paper, and since the paper belongs to the people, it takes on the personality ofjthe community * There can never .be too much reiteration in marking the value of our free press. When we stop and look at foreigners who have lost their freedom, we. know what our American heritage "means, but often we treat it lightly We read something like the opening chapters of “Lydia Baity” with a sense of shock in finding that here in America men were■ tortured and jailed for voicing a disagreement with the government party in power. We have become so accustomed to seeing opinions in print that we take it more or less for granted The coming week will be a good time to remind ourselves of this precious right of freedom. We epeak lightly, “It’s a free world ain’t it, I still gotta right to think what I please.” Speaking seriously, “I still have a right to speak freely. I have a right to criticize wrong, and offer my suggestion for right. I have a right to tell a thing as I see it, and voice my idea of what is best for my country and my community.” luiiiiiiiicaiiiitiiiiiiicaiiiiiiiiiiiicaiiiitiiiiiiicsi REAL ESTATE I hare prospects for All Kinds of Property Outside Connections W.

This coming week will be National Newspaper Week. Any Wednesday you think you’d like to own a nice country weekly (to play around with in your spare time), come on around, you could buy it cheap. But on Thursday morning when the week’s edition is out, the price is plenty high, and the only way you could purchase the rag would be to buy the entire personnel with it. There’s a problem or two with running a paper—whether it’s a big city sheet with an air-conditioned plant and regular hours of shifts working, or whether it’s the one-room weekly of men who go to work when the week begins and “quittin’ time” is when the work is done. The same problems exist: try to have the news that the people are interested in, avoid items that, though may be called news by some, can do nothing but harm and are of no value, and see that the Linotype stops kicking out slugs of “ahrdlu etaoini” By the end of next week, after the newspaper people have eet| their little linotypes dry of metal, each and sundry member of the “fourth estate” can sit in the same attitude of the orchardist when he listens to National Apple Week. Those shiny, perfect apples oil display*—wth >11 the bally-;™ hoo running lush from the mouths of the high-tone orators — may mean glamour to the average man, but, the orchardist knows the work, worry, and sweat that went into raising those apples, and he also knows about what percent of culls went along with those perfect ones. One of these days the newspaper man will be able to prop his feet on a celestial desk, with the filmy clouds of golden ink about him, and only there will he see that movie newspaper man who is always present at the scene of a big scoop—daily—and rushes to the phone to inform the scurrying office force to ‘stop the presses.” The answer to that one is told in many a newsman’s top stories: The old guy in the press room who informs the world in general that the paper is now “put to bed” and he wouldn’t change it for a picture of the Supreme Court doing a fan dance with a Salvation Army Band* * * ♦ The sun looked like the moon Saturday afternoon and Sunday, Sunday afternoon and Monday, and the moon was in eclipse Mon-, day night—all confusing. But the smart men had all the necessary explanations: the sun was obscured by smoke from the northern forest fires.

Warrenton, Virginia . * 2%'* ■ A gan the return after midnight— ■o I am told. * * * The United African Company, a trading concern, has published a booklet stating that West African natives have a special liking for hair-cream sandwiches. Yes, air, it is reported that a certain brand of hair cream in some parts of the Gold Coast is spread on bread and eaten with great relish. A lump of sugar soaked in perfume makes a delectable candy, continues the report. Far be it from us to argue. The Rappahannock cook book— to be called Rare Rappahannock Recipes, as was its successor—is in the process of being printed. Try sitting all day and setting type of just one kind of rich pudding, pie, and cake ^after another and you will realise that the thought of rich fo<jld almost turns the stomach. But then, get to the part that tells how to hake a ham—get to that part about noon time, just before lunch, and you sit and work and almost drool with hunger. The ladies of the churches who are putting out the cook book have much sympathy coming their iway when they get to the business of reading proof on the book. ’Tie hoped the job does not fall on some ladies who are overly fond of food, or they shall find themselves perpetually hungry. The eattle man reads the stock market, the lady reads the society page, the earnest student reads the editorials, everybody reads the .eomies, and, ofeojiree, the worn#* look for bargains in the ads. The advertisements are part of my favorite reading. Take for instance, the one of Gimbel’s in Sunday’s Times. There was an enormous double-page spread on some copies of French originals that the store had for sale. The ad explained that the seams were the same, and that even an expert would not be able to study and find the difference in these marvelous copies made exactly like the wonderful French originals. Down in the corner were two shadowy figures of a man and a woman, with this caption—very small—“The story goes, in case you haven’t cut your first tooth, that the French Chamber of Deputies was debating woman’s suffrage. When one liberal soul pointed out that there is very little difference, «|9§ter all, between the sexes, a fellow deputy leapt ttr his. feet and Bhouted with gusto, “Viva la difference’!” Another ad In the paper announced that mink coats were on sale at the astoundingly low prices of |1589 and $1289 (and it’s no typographical error .that decimals are omitted). Reminds us of the story of the wife who used to show her husband all*- the expensive items advertised in the paper that that she didn’t even want—proving how much money she was saving for him daily! * * * Fall has fell. Before long the nights will be silent, with the insect world hibernating. Wearing of shoes will be a task of the boys, whose free toes must again face imprisonment. Mornings will be crisp and the covers will be thrown back reluctantly to push nice warm feet into cold slippers. Oh, well, there will be compensations. I’ll try to locate them.

While, as before, insurance benefit payments will be made to a widow with a child in her care, provision is now made for payments of such benefits to a divorced wife of a deceased insured worker. It is now possible for a widow and one or more divorced wives of a deceased insured worker to be entitled , at the same time to insurance benefit payments based on his social security wage record. In order to qualify as a former wife, as far as social security is concerned, the divorcee must be the natural mother of his son or daughter, or have legally adopted the insured worker’s son or daughter while she was married to him, or have been married to him at the time both of them adopted a child. In either case, the child must have been under 18 at the time of adopthem will not be the blankets t&at come from being stored. “Guaranteed Odorless” reads the label on some new-fangled mothball substitute — prevarication is the polite word, for the blankets still smell and a good airing is the only thing to do.

Ordinarily, feed constitutes about 80% of the cost of raising hogs. Therefore, to get better profits, cut feed costs. Hog feeds are short in minerals—and it is generally agreed that hogs overeat on costly feeds when sufficient minerals are not supplied. Feed your hogs a balanced ration eostuig Watkins Hog Mineral Compound.

CULPEPER Rappahannock Says It With Flowers By Mary Elizabeth Hit* On th« afternoon and evening of September the fifteenth, a. most unique flower show was presented In the auditorium of the Sperry- * ▼ille school by the Rappahannock Garden Club. It was a “Fun With Flowers Show.” There were flowers, flowers everywhere and ohl such fun! “A Bit of Fun” consisted of miniature arrangements, dainty and unbelievably exquisite. “Fun for Mother and Daughter”!—an arrangement by mother and a similar one though smaller by daughter. The first honor award went to Mrs. L. J. Turner and Carolyn. The artistic “Apple a Day” arrangements were of great interest to the orchardtsts. Mrs. Menefee’s original thought in showing Johnny Appleseed with his work behind him won first prise. The apples were beautiful Golden Delicious and had come from H. B. Winfrey’s orchard at “Sunstroke Manor.” * Down the- center of the room many lovely “Bouquets for Grandma’s Parlor” had been placed.! —Grandma, herself, would have been proud of these in old-fashioned vases and wedgewood bowls. “The Invitation Class” consisted of three perfectly appointed, tables for Harvest Dinner. The Country Club of Culpeper won tbe award erf honors The wooden dinner service with candlesticks to match attracted much attention with center-piece of all the fruits and vegetables of the season. Now for “Fun in Rappahannock,” representing the many activities nad pleasures of our native county — an old-fashioned bouquet with dainty fan suggested the dance. Some go literary with their county book and paper and best of all—flower catalogues spread out before them and others on snowy days go sleigh-riding. While ladies occasionally enjoy a bit of gossip with a Vase of asters close by, one lady says to another . “I didn’t even ast’er for this.” Hunting scenes are popular with fishing rod second in popularity. Mrs. R. M. Menefee’s hunting scene had all three ribbons pinned on it—the fox was making a run for his life with hounds and Bob chasing hard on his heels. The gorgeous flower specimens were too numerous for me even .to mention the winners.

Cake batter will keep three or four months. Cake will keep four to six months. If you want to freeze the batter, pour it into any moisturevapOr-proof container such as those used for freezing fruits. It also may be poured into greased cake pans, frozen, and then wrapped in moisture-proof cellophane and heat-sealed, or wrapped in aluminum foil. , If you want to freeze the baked cake, freeze it as soon after cool• ing as possible to presene fresh goodness.
