27,952 Visitors Enter Park Sunday, October 15 Shenandoah National Park reports that 27,952 -visitors, in 7,123 ' Vehicles,* entered the Park Sunday, • October 15. This is the largest ' number of people to enter 'the Park in one day since 1941. People in Rappahannock who live along the road and saw the streams of traffic Sunday will be glad to testify that the number is correct—only most folks think there were more! The cars poured along the Lee Highway in a continuous stream all day long. At one time in the early afternoon, when the traffic had been steadily getting heavier, a man on the corner at Washington took a count. The cars were making the turn «t the signal light at a rate of 26 per minute. According to Fark reports, picnicking and other facilities were filled to overflowing by the thousands who came to see the'fine display of autumn colors. The greens of the conifers are offset brilliantly by the crimson of Virginia creeper and maple, yellows S£ the hickory and tylip poplar, and russets of the oaks. This year, weather and other ' conditions have been favorable # for unusually good fall colors famous in this area; and although the Shades of color are now reported at their peak of brilliance, they should continue to be spectacular for at least another week. It is customarily spoken that the second and third Sundays in October are the best for viewing the Drive, but the fourth Sunday will be included this year since the date is only the 22nd of the month, and the foliage is still in its glory.

The revised edition of the nowfamous first copy, published in 1928 by the ladies of Woodville Baptist church, has been revised and re-published by the ladies of Mt. Lebanon and Woodville Baptist churches combined. The ladies who worked on this new copy, refused to list their names and just retained the names of the ladies who compiled the original book. The new edition has left every recipe of the origi-, nal book exactly as it was, for the fame of this “Rare Rappahannock Recipes” has spread far and wide. A* To the recipes of the original... book, the ladies have added some modern 'recipes, such as ice-box rolls and cookies, which were not the regular thing in 1928 and 'before. Every new recipe, which , did- no^appear in , the . first cook v book, is marked plainly with an asterisk before the name of the recipe, so that no one may become confused in thinking they have an old recipe when it is a new one. The recipes are a complete list. The old famous gingerbread recipe by which such bread waa made for LaFayette by Mary Washington is right there. The! recipe for baking a ham is the one of Thomas Nelson Page, given to General Joffre when he was presented a ham by Mrs. Woodrow Wilson and wanted a recipe so that he could guarantee the— flavor would be as good in Paris as it had been in America. The cook books will be on sale in tim$ for Christmas fruit cakes to be made, and there are fruit cake recipes of the old-time blackstrap molasses variety, clear up to the modern white versions with fancy candied trimmings. The 132-page books include extra blank pages in the back for the housewife <to add recipes as . aha may desire./ The book is all-white, heavy white slick covers which can easily be wiped off, and the binding is milk-white plastic cones. The book will lie flat on the table and will not close together and lose the place while the housewife is^ in the middle of the process of following a recipe. The ladies of Mt. Lebanon and Woodville churches have not announced where the books will be on sale, but this announcement will be made in time for everyone to purchase their copy. The price is $1.00.

Tweed, of Collier’s Magaine, was in Washington Tuesday afternoon to tell about the forth* coming story in the November 4 issue of the magazine on the ladies’ election, entitled “SheTown.” Mr. Tweed said that he was using the visit as an excuse to shake hands with a mayor, since !he had never met one. Mrs. Davis graciously welcomed him to the town and shook his hand. Now he can brag that he has not only met a mayor, but has shaken hands with the prettiest one in the country. The story of Washington, or “She-Town,” as Collier’s calls it (quoting Dr. Snead), will be on ' sale Friday, October 7, at Rappahannock News, and in front of the Courthouse Saturday, October 8. The ^gentleman from Collier’s showed the five color pictures that were to appear in the magazine along with Ed Lockett’s story. ^Tha. pictures are beautiful in color—especially the one showing the countryside. (Perhaps it is better to say the one of D. Lyle Miller, Snippy Miller, and George Da\is is a good likeness, rather than that it is “pretty.”) Mr. Tweed reports that the story didn’t miss an item—everything’s in it. Lt. Cmdr.

Rappahannock News ” Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia 4 Dial Washington 2851 i,UCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post offiee at Washington, Virginia. Subscription: _— $2.00 a year JOm ■ ■ - ■ ■ . . . ... iElection Day ' Election day is coming op in a couple of weeks—November 7, to be exact. ‘Hake no excuses, and let no one fool you "With stupid reasons, it’s your duty to do your voting. Complain long and loud, if you please, of every piece of the government you don’t like. That’s your privilege. But remember that the government is no better and no worse than you have ma'de it. iYou voted for those to lead it. Granted: the best Congressmen •nd Senators are the ones we put there, but how are they to know that we approve of the fine work they are doing if we don’t go to the polls and roll up a big vote for them. That’s the way to show that iwe approve their stands for a good, solid, conservative country. Our Congressman comes up for re-election on November 7. "Heck, there's no, need’, to swort,y,” you’ll hear some say. Put yourself in his shoes; suppose you had worked long, hard, and faithfully serving the people of Rappahannock and all their best interests. Yet on the day you were being re-elected, they didn’t even have sufficient appreciation to go to the polls and mark the ballot. Let’s show that this county—as a whole—believes in a democratic government, “of the people, by the people, for the people,” and every man shall do his duty on election day by voting. There are 257 votes in Wakefield District; 216 in Jackson; 397 in Hampton; 307 in Piedmont; 126 in Hawthorne; and 223 in Stonewall. It will be interesting to see the results of the election to see how many in each district will be on hand to vote. U. N. Flag Say October 24 has been named as United Nations Flag Day and em« phasis is being placed on acquainting everyone with the blue and ■white flag. Home Demonstration clubs throughout the nation have made these flags and placed them on display. The United Nations flag made by the Rappahannock H.D. clubs was on display at the Rappahannock Fair. It is light blue in color and has appliqued upon the center a white world surrounded with a white olive branch. Of course, the subject of a flag is rather a touchy one at Washington, Rappahannock’s county seat. Since Life magazine came out with the picture showing the speaking stand draped with the Stars and Stripes on thd occasion of the installation of the ladies into town offices, letters have poured in protesting this “desecration to Old Glory.” Naturally, the Mayor got all the blame, whereas, in truth, she was not mayor at the time the decorating committee unwittingly misused the Flag. Please, let the rest of the county read this about the flag. To discuss any subjecteonneeted with a flag in Washington right now is sorta like bringing up the subject of rope and learning later that the hostess’s grandpappy was hanged for horse-thieving. In the town of Washington, one just neglects the subject of flags at present. Birth Announcement Mr. and Mrs. Gabe Burke, of Washington, have announced the birth of a daughter, Janet Karen Burke, born August 10, 1950, Weight 9 lbs. 14 ouiices. , b M 1-9- QXBAJUJL^. y, October 20 * ^ C.

The baby hates to eat bis spin* ach, it all goes back to that day he was fed spinach that was too hot and he has hated it ever since. “It proves” that childhood impressions are lasting. Junior shows remarkable talent in art, for he drew a pictifre of a cat and it looked more like a cat than the box-like, smoke-stacked houses he had been scribbling all over the wallpaper, so “it proves” that his talent is inherited from greataunt Agatha's first husband, who was an artist. Recollections bring forward a very glamorous college professor, of many a year back, who brought out some theory of powers of divination by catching you off-guard and giving clews to your personality by demanding, “Recite whatever poem popat into your mind—don't think, just start reciting.” The professor (of all horrors, she was female 1) pulled that stunt one day. With a face aa blank as a potato, one chirpy student began: “Bowed with the weight of centuries, he leans upon his hoe and gazes on the ground; A world of emptiness in his face and on his back the burden of the iworld.” As well as can be recalled, there was no further discussion of the subject. One fall jt was warm and that winter, an epidemic of some sort 'caused the^death of h number of' people. “It proves” that if the fall is warm, there’ll be a lot of sickness. And on it goes. There’s one on which well all agree: the disobedience of Adam and Eve sent man out into the world to work for his living—and no one will argue—“it proves” he has been workihe ever since. V* * * ’Tis eternally a shock when visitors drop into the county and still come out with the same impression. There is a little variance, but the gist of the remarks is this: "How can a community be this close to so many fast-paced cities and still have the apparent tempo of living ascribed to our grand-parents?” The answer is .easy. Rappahannock has the good judgment to live at a decent pace which still gives the opportunities of getting some pleasure out of living. We learned many yeaTS ago what happened to Jack whan hie began ah existence of “all work and no play!” Lots of people, poor souls, have forgotten what a relaxing evening can mean. They rush madly from one form of exciting entertainment to another, and die of the mad rush before they have time to learn to live. Now, I’d be glad to do a little missionary work along this line—if it wouldn’t involve too much work, of course—but they couldn’t stop long enough to hear it, and besides, they wouldn’t be interested. We’re getting love letters from the poor, poor government. The State and our poverty-stricken Uncle Sam is sending little notea to his loving nieces and nephews, reminding them that taxes are due. ! Now’s the time for all good men to dig into their jeans and help the government go several more billions into debt. This subject could be elaborated upon to some extent, but there keeps flashing into my mind a pert phrase used by a co-worker' of mine: “Don’t tell me your troubles, I’ve got troubles of my own!” --* The wild geese went over Monday on> their way south. Over the town of Washington at one time they went into two V’s. Of. course, some wag remarked that the lead gander's mate took over while they flew over the “She-Town,” as Dr. Snead named it.

According to a recent report of the U. S. Chamber of Com* merce, Virginia now ranks in 39th place in the amount spent per pupil for education last year. The Virginia average was $137 against a national average of $206. That fellow’s editorial will now have to bear the caption: “Thank God for 11 Other States.” Rep. Harrison Announces Openings For Young Men In Coast Guard Academy Rep. Burr P. Harrison has called the attention of young men of this area to the nationwide competitive examinations for appointment to the United States Coast Guard Academy which will form the basis for selection of those entering the academy in 1951. The tests will be held February r island 29,* 1961; >—- **• Mr. Harrison emphasized that a candidate, to be selected, must not only pass the examination, but also must stand high enough in the ratings to fall within the number of the entering, class. The total depends on the needs of the service next year. “The Coast Guard Academy examination is strictly competitive and is controlled completely by the Coast Guard,” he said. “There is no such thing as a Congressional appointment to the academy. On the other hand, there is no limit to the number of candidates from any particular area.” Mr. Harrison explained thyt candidates must be not less than 17 years of age and not more than 22 years of age on July 1, 1951. They' must have high school diplomas, or be scheduled to graduate next spring, and they must ibe in excellent physical condition. V The Coast Guard Academy is located at New London, Conn. “Young men who are interested in a career as a Coast Guard officer should write for information and application forms to the Commandant, U. S. Coast Guard, Washington 25, D. C.,” Mr. Harrison said. Luray C. of C. to Hold Annual Dinner Nov. 16 The Board of Directors of the Luray Chamber of Commerce has set November 16 as the date for their annual dinner meeting of the organization.

Rode* Brown, JrM New Chairman of County Savings Bond Committee Fanners can strike a heavy blow against inflation iby investing their surplus money in United States Savings Boqds, Chairman J. Rodes Brown, Jr., lof Rappahannock County Savings Bonds Committee* said today. Savings Bonds represent the least inflationary type of government borrowing during the present period of defense spending, Mr, Brown added. Savings Bonds sold to individuals are not transferrable and therefore cannot be used as the basis for further, spending while held by the individual. Although a person can cash his Savings Bonds any time after 60 days from the date Bonds are issued, most people hold their Series E Bonds until the maturity date ten years later. Series E Bonds held to maturity increase by onethird in value. Maenwhile, they; are a reserve for emergency needs.' Since farmers as much as any group in the country know the hard lessons resulting from price inflation, they will be interested in helping to prevent wild inflation during the present national situation, Mr. Brown said. U. S. Savings Bonds can be bought at any bank or post office^ 1951 ACP Aims To Build Soil Reserves Stockpiling fertility reserves in .the nation’s farm land will be the mine of the f95i ‘Xgricultdfal** Conservation Program rather than using soil reserves to produce already abundant supplies of cash crops, the Production and Marketing Adminisrtation said this week. That, according to R. B. Bridgforth, State PMA head, summed up the thinking of a State technical committee which met in Richmond last week to consider conservation practices for next year’s ACP program. The committee, which is composed of representatives of various State and Federal agricultural agencies, met to select the practices most needed in Virginia and to draw up specifications for each. Among the practices considered! were the use of liming materials, superphosphate and potash; seeding cover crops of legumes and grasses, or small grain; stripcropping, contour planting, terracing, and sod waterways; open and tile drainage; pasture development and forest stand improvement; and establishment of farm ponds. When the final list of practices, their specifications and the amount of ACP assistance for each is determined, Bridgforth said that they will be published in a State handbook.

FALLS FROM TREE Mrs. Lillie Clattei'buck had the misfortune to fall from a tree while picking apples Wednesday morning in the orchard of William Moffett. Mrs. Clatterbuck was was to the office of Dr. Snead, where she was treated for a broken collarbone. Fall Control — Forgotten but not gone i» many homes at fall housecleaning time are carpet beetles and clothes moths, say entomologists of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Spring has so long been the traditional time for the “moth campaign” that many a housewife is unaware that spraying is needed because with modern heating these pests can thrive in winter. Before winter wools and furs are hung in closets, the closets should be cleaned thoroughly and then walls, baseboards, woodwork and shelves sprayed with a five per cent DDT oil solution. Use a residual spray which leaves an invisible film of DDT on closet surfaces to kill pests coming in contact with it, even several months after application. The so-called aerosol bombs or space sprays do not give lasting protection but do kill insects reached by the insecticide when the aerosol is released. DDT oil solution may be sprayed lightly on wool clothes without injury to the fabric or to the person who wears the clothes after the spray has evaporated. Use just enough, to moisten the fabric. Apply lightly on both sides of heavy fabrics. Too much of the solution may leave whitish traces on dark wool but these can be brushed or sponged off with drycleaning fluid. Clothes moths are blamed for much damage done by carpet beetles, the entomologists say. Reports from many parts of the country indicate that the damage caused by carpet beetles is increasing. It is the carpet beetle larvae that do the destructive feeding. These are hardier and move around more than clothes moth larvae, and are killed more slowly by DPT and may not die for several days after exposure to DDT. In spraying against carpet beetles, apply plenty of the solution to cracks in floors and around baseboards rwhere they frequently live. A ID per cent DDT dust blown into cracks gives added protection. Other tips to fall housecleaners from the entomologists: Warm air ducts often accumulate dust and fuzz which makes Them ideal feeding and hiding places for the moths and beetles. Before the furnace is turned on for the winter, gratings or other covers over ducts should be removed, the dust cleaned out, and spray applied around the edges. Choice food for these pests is hair shed qround the house by house dogs or cats. Careful cleaning and spraying under furniture, around baseboards and in floor cracks is recommended. » The many thousands of letters to federal entomologists from families whose possessions have suffered moth or beetle damage testify to the need of more understanding as to the best methods of combatting these pests and preventing costly waste.

Frankfs boys and I were in the thouse and thein dog started barking. We went outside to see what was going on. “The hounds after thl fox went behind the barn and the fox went in front of the barn. A few minutes later the fox was coming through the yard right by us and that fox layed down right on the front porch. “1 ran to the porch and kicked him off. He tried to get through, the yard fenqe and we threw rocks at him until he got through. “When he got through, I followed him and one of the boys (E&ward) called the dogs, and they went down through the forest after the fox. Before long4 we heard the fox holler. All of us went down in the woods and one dog was standing over the fox.” (Seen and related by Charles R. Middleton.)

Freezing Meals By Mary L. Thompson Extension Nutritionist, VP1 So you’re going to a luncheon meeting? But what about your family at home? If you have on hand a supply of meals ready to thaw and eat, your troubles are over. Almost all cooked foods are good frozen. When you have some free time, you can prepare a dozen or more meals at once. And when enough food is left over from a meal to serve one or more persons, it can be frozen as soon as it’s cold, and added to the stock pile of meals for busy daj^s, or for the family on days when you’re away from home. For instance, try freezing a meal of: roast pork and graVy, apple sauce, candied sweet potatoes, turnip greens, and rolls; or coast-beef and gravy, french frt^s, stringbeans, and biscuits. Be sure to include enough liquid to prevent drying out—that is, cover roast beef, chicken, or turkey with gravy; or freeze separately to serve .with the meal. As for packaging -— cover a paper plate or piece of heavy cardboard with aluminum foil. Make divisions in the plate by pressing foil iqto separate sections. Wrap bread separately before putting it on the plate. If you use cardboard, allow enough foil for fold to form edge. Wrap plate closely with foil. Label and freeze. Meals also may be frozen in square aluminum foil or metal containers, separating each food with a layer of foil or cellophane. This method is best if tKe meals are to be frozen at a locker plant. It’s easy to serv'e frozen meals. Simply put the plate in a hot oven (450°) without thawing. Heat 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the thickness of package. If 15 or 20 dinners are heated at once, oven should be 500°, and a larger time will be needed. Sandwiches also may be made in quantity, wrapped in vapormoisture-proof paper, labeled and dated, then frozen. Ham, sliced chicken, chicken salad,'tuna, salmon, and cheese all freeze well. Boiled dressing is best, as mayonnaise tends to separate when frozen. Lunches taken out of the freezer at 7 or 8 a.m. will be just right to eat at noon. Commissioner’s Sale —OF— !

Chicken In The Jar With autumn culling of poultry Rocks underway on many farms, there’s good news of a short-cut for canning this abundant supply cf chicken—a quick new-pack method developed by the Beureau of Human Nutrition and Home Economics, U. S. Department of Agriculture. Not only does this raw pack save time and work but it produces chicken as tasty or better than chicken canned by longer methods. The meat is packed raw without even adding water in this newest method. The step of exhausting, heating packed jars before sealing to expel air, also is eliminated. In laboratory testa of canning chicken by five methods; trained judges pronounced the raw-pack chicken juicy, tender, and flavorful. In these qualities, it rated slightly higher in general than chicken which was boiled in water, boiled in broth, lightly fried, or browned in the oven before can* ning. The raw pack is a special timeeaver compared with preboiling in broth, because broth must be prepared ahead of time by simmering bony chicken pieces in water. The raw pack is not recommended for excessively fat chicken. .To rajr-pack. cKfeken withbone, the specialists offer these directions for packing in quart jars: Clean and cut up chicken as usual for cooking or canning. Sort chicken into meaty and bony pieced, setting giblets aside to can separately. Bone the breast, saw drumsticks off short if desired but leave bone in other meaty pieces. Trim off lumps of fat. If salt is desired, put 1 teaspoon in each quart jar. Then pack in thighs and drumsticks, with skin next to sides of jars. In center of jar fit breasts, and then smaller pieces (where needed. Pack jars to about 1 inch of top, and adjust lids. Process in steam-pressure canner at 10 pounds pressure (240° > 80 minutes for quart jars. Remove from canner and complete seals if lids are not self-sealing. Cool jars right hide up away from drafts. Check for leaks next day and label 'before storing in cool, dry place. . ? gff* l"1' 11 I .1 ■!II■!>!IIIMII,l I . ■WSWa—aj Bromfield Parish Dinner ‘ letters have been mailed to members of Trinity and Emmanoel churches in Bromfield Parish, announcing a Parish dinner October 20, at Washington House* Cards must be mailed to Mrs. J.
