C ’-f-** Man Escapes Injury As Tractor Runs Amuck A special brand of rabbit’s foot or four-leaf clover was riding with Braxton James at Amissville on Thursday when his tractor got out of control and crashed into the gas tank in front of Palmer’s Store. Braxton James lost control of his tractor as he made a turn in front of Palmer’s Store. Thinking that the tractor was overturning, James jumped and escaped injury. The tractor went over a small concrete rise, crashed into Mr. Palmer’s car, which was parked before the porch, under the shelter between the porch and the gas pumps. After the tractor struck the Car, it careened into one of the gas pumps and knocked it over against a brick post. The tractor_ . stopped, propped up against the tilted gas pump. Mr. Palmer was seated ,on the porch at the time of the accident and watehed the tractor plow into his car, smash both doors and ruin -a fender. He states that it was bad enough to sit thefe and watch the car get smashed, ,but when the tractor was turned over against the broken gas tank with gas and oil leaking about his store, he really worried. Lady Luck was smiling around the corner, however, and no fire started.

Lyne County Agent The 1950 Rappahannock Angus Breeders Feeder Calf Sale averaged $34.11 per hundred-weight for a total of 581 head. Of this number 77.96% graded good or better. (While a comparable figure is not available on other Virginia sales, the graders reported the Rappahannock sale the first graded up to that date wherein the quality was .better than last year’s consignment and the graders themselves admitted they had become more strict in their grading.) In addition to the above there were 20 veals sold for an average of $32.70 per hundred-weight and 21 yearlings .which sold for an average of $30.89 per cwt. The sale grossed the 28 consignors a ■total of $82,467.88. Sev'fcn calves were graded as “fancy" or double-Q *pd were ' produced at indicated by the following consignors: < J. Hill O’Bannon, 2; J. W. Fletcher, 2; George Ramsey, 2; and ''Laurel Hill Farm (Thomas E. Hughes) 1. Other consignors having 90% or better of their calves sold grad* ing “good" or better were: Ray T. Cannon, J.'W. Fletcher, George C. Ramsey, J. R. Brown, C. E. Johnson, Jr., J. S. Buckner, R. M. Menefee, W. C. Campbell, Guy Marlow, and Aspendale Farm (Thomas E. Hughes). In fact, 100% of the calves sold by the following graded good or better: George Ramsey, 41 head;C. E.Johnson, 10 head ; J. S. Buckner, 2 head; and Aspendale 12 head. Buyers were from Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey, Virginia, and West Virginia, with the largest number of calves, 270 head, going to Pennsylvania. Eighty-one heifers returned to Rappahannock. Mt. Ida Farm, Huntly, which is managed by. James E. Tates, was: the largest consignor with a total of 91 head. Dolmoni Farm, near Washington, owned by W. B. Dolph and managed bjr C. C* Zinn, was second largest corlsignor with 50 head. James W. Fletcher consigned 48 head. Earl Combs, .who recently purchased the Quaintance Farm near Woodville, was the largest buyer, purchasing 56 head of heifers to be used in establishing a new herd. Top price of the sale was $41.50 per cwt. paid for a single choice heifer weighing 405 lbs. which was consigned by George Ramsey of Front Royal and purchased by a Mr. Carr of Virginia. Heifers also tied for second high of $40 per cwt. when two lots sold at this figure to Mr. Carr (9) and the other lot of six went to a Maryland buyer. Six ox the 30 different buyers were repeat customers. Newbill Miller purchased what I considered the top of the “fancy” steer chives which he will feed as a 4-H Baby Beef project. While this sale brings to a close the major portion of the best cattle industry of«the county for the year> it also marks the beginning of another year's operation and thus I feel a few , seasonal suggestions are in order concerning our commercial beef cow herds. Market that non-producing cow noy; also any cow which you may have that produced a weak, slow growing, poor quality calf. If you have any late calves, put them in the market and give the mother an opportunity to build up before winter sets in. Wean those heifer calves you are keeping for her replacements. One cattleman says he has less trouble if-the cows and. calves are placed in adjacent fields so„ they can smell each other through the. fence. It _spring, put the old, bull dn the market, and the sale price in his successor now so he will be farm conditioned and “at home" before spring. Begin feeding replacement heif-. era earlier than you normally do the mature animals. Keep an eagle-eye on the cows and don’t let them start losing weight before you start feeding. Chances are a calf born of a thin mother will never catch up with one produced by a thrifty cow.

Hallowe'en seems to have run • season of behavior. There was • time when the dreaded night was a time of sitting up to protect property from vandalism and all forms of plain malicious destruction; then there came a time when sadism entered the picture, and even dumb animals were tortured and mistreated. Today the season is turned over to the children and it consists mostly of -the little folks dressing up in ugliest of costumes and a few of the older children getting into small amounts of mischief. There is practically no destruction or breaking of property. The youngsters seem to have a better sense of respecting other folks' property, and they get their energies expended in parties and games rather than settling on pranks that cause trouble and worry to someone else. “September Eve” We’ve had “New Deals” and “Fair Deals,” Bujt the Fairest Deal of all 1 Started on this September Eve Under a monument, grave-and tall.

The quoting of “Don’t tell me your troubles, I got troubles of my own” has not helped a bit. “Your paper last week told n\e to vote, but you didn’t tell me who to vote for,” complained a reader. Mister, it iwou^l be a pleasure! Nothing flatters a woman quite as much as to let her think she is the boss, but I’ve hung around in this vale of tears long enough to know that all you were doing was trying to tease. I happen to know that you > are going to vote exactly as I would like .you to—and you wouldn’t have mentioned it to.me if you hadn’t known it, too. An anonymous phone call arrived at the News office last week. “Why can’t the paper print something besides the woman-election?” Ah! woe is the editorl The poor ole’ soul thought there was something else in the paper besides that subject so offensive to the conversationalist. There is no answer. If you print news of the women’s taking over the county seat, then there would be complaints; if you don’t print it, there are some who would howl. Constructive criticism Is that which is sought in these quarters. The woman on the phone, who would not give her name, (or else some man has a most effeminate voice) didn’t suggest whatjo puj in the place of the news that was offensive. Not too long ago there appeared in the paper a review of the old fable of the Miller, His Son, and the Ass—the moral of which was that you cannot please all the. people all the time. The poor ole’ editor just blunders along, doing the best possible (and no wise-cracks about how little that i^) and there is never anything put in the paper that is meant to displease. Whenever someone is made unhappy, it is purely unintentional. When the story .of the complaining phone call was told, an answer came from a lady who admitted she, too, was a little* tired of bearing the story of the all-woman election, “hut,” she said, “one thing in its favor can he stated: it did furnish- conversation and giVe the neighbors' reputations a rest. While talk centered on the election and all the subsequent publicity, it’s amazing bow well business continued—with no rocking-chair management and advice.” * * * No figures are available on the crowds on Skyline Drive Sunday, but from the traffic through tire county, it must have been as much as the record-breaking Sunday before. The businesses along the road report that they iwere on the job all day and were too occupied to get into mischief Even Lee Thornton was on the roadside, giving the tourists the privilege of purchasing some genuine Rappahannock apples. Enough apple cider was sold along the side of the road to float a battleship.

Local talk has it that the main trouble will lie in the fact that • the reader will not know exactly how much work is required of the ladies in their town government. The ladies, themselves, are beginning to get a little tired of the affair. They had enough work to do as it was—housekeeping, teaching, running a beauty parlor, and being secretary to the county agent—and now with fall cleaning, plus the extra work of the duties of public office, and all the calls for them to pose for pictures and answer questions, they stay on a perpetual merry-goround. Their only consolation is that it will die down soon and they can hibernate for the winter in peace. During the War of the Revolution numerous colonial newspaper editors were forced to flee before the advancing British army.

Both articles were written, or collected, by members of Baptist churches in Rappahannock county. a ' , . Primitive or Old School Baptist Church By J. Htmjr Daily The Primitive or Old School Baptist church hold to the old principles and customs that have marked their identity through the ages. In doctrine they have been known as Calvanists because their belief was so nearly like that of Calvin, written in the fifteenth century. At that time they were known as Waldenses and before v that as Novations. They have held to ,the same doctrine and practice from their beginning. •They believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the only rule of faith and prac-< tice; that God elected a certain number of the human family, (including all infants who die in in* fancy) to be conformed to the image of his Son, and that they will be finally brought to glory without the loss of any (John 6:37); that man, by his fallen state in sin is unable to recover himself of his own free will and ability; that sinners are justified in the sight of God only by the imputed righteousness^fi^ Christ; * that Coif's elect shallbe called, regenerate (born again) and sanctified by the Holy Spirit, and that their eternal salvation is in no way depending on the preached gospel. They believe that the chosen in Christ while yet dead in sins are unable to hear or believe the gospel <1. Cor. 2:14), and for this reason have never believed in foreign missions, Sunday School and other societies designed to lead souls to Christ, which are not authorized by the Scriptures. They believe that all, in all nations fon whom Christ died will be eternally saved. They believe that much of the happiness of the children of God depends on the way they live; that they are under law to Christ which is parental law, being children of God, but that nothing shall sever that relationship or separate them finally from the love of God. (Rom. 8:35-39). They do not believe that all the saved are in their church, bull that all who love God are born 'of God whether they have united with a Religious society or not. Believing that the Bible gives us all we should do in the way of piactice they do not have instrumental music or Sunday School in their churches. They believe in spiritual worship and the organ detracts instead of adding to the spiritual part of song services. If it had been of spiritual benefit Christ and his apostles would have used them. Until the child has been quickened by grace they cannot understand the true teaching of the Scriptures. Teachers not qualified by the Spirit cannot give the proper meaning of the Bible. They believe that such teaching is responsible for the different beliefs or creeds of several hundred church organizations. They believe in religious and** civil liberty and want the privilege to worship in the old fashion Bible way. Submitted in Christian love for all.

TO IF. M. What We As Baptists Believe * Most of the information in this article has been copied from Dr. George W. McDaniel’s book entitled “The People Called Baptists” and Frank S. Mead’s book entitled “See These Banner" Go.” The distinguishing principles of the Baptists are: 1. The Scriptures, the only authoritative guidebook for our religious life. There may be no appeal from, or addition to, their precepts and principles. 2. The individual and direct access of every soul to God; none between man and God, save only the God-man. j 3. The complete separation of church and state in their respective fields; the church dealing with religious, the state with civil affairs. 4. The simple policy otf the church’s government, each church autonomous and a democracy in itself. 5. The baptism of believers only, or a regenerate church membership. They believe in baptism by ^.immersion only, aeeerding to the Scriptures, as symbolizing the death, burial and resurrection of Christ; and that the Lord’s Supper is a church ordinance. Certain characters in history are named as founders of various denominations, but there is .no personality this side of Jesus Christ who is a satisfactory explanation of their origin. Our principles are as old as Christianity, and we acknowledge no founder but Christ. Baptists have always been champions of civil and religious liberty,. Roger Williams who took ground in advance of his Puritan compeers on the subject of personal liberty, being banished from the colony of .Massachusetts, went to the present site of Providence, Rhode Island, v^fiere he founded what is regarded by some as the first Baptist church in America, and the first commonwealth on earth in (which there was absolute civil and religious liberty. The framers of the Constitution of the United States caught the spirit of Roger Williams and as a result we have a country which has been the refuge of the persecuted and oppressed of all nations. Article VI on religious liberty in the American Constitution was introduced into it by the united efforts of Baptists in 1789. The first amendment to the Constitution of the United States guaranteeing freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and the right to petition, was adopted largely through the activity of Baptists. They took the initiative in a letter to President Washington and a month later, Madison, with Washington’s approval, presented the amendment. The first government jin the world that allowed full liberty of conscience from principle to all men was established by Baptists in Rhode Island. Freedom of conscience and complete divorce of church and state! How they suffered for that! They have faced mockery and mud, fines, whippings, and iron bars; they have been burned at the stake and pulled at the rack, but they have held to it. James Madison, graduate of Princeton and preparing for the ministry, was so shocked by . the mistreatment of Baptists and so moved by their preaching through prison bars that he abandoned the ministry and became the political apostle of religious freedom in Virginia and America. The Baptist church in Culpeper now is on the sitd of the old Culpeper jail. It was in this jail that James Ireland and others of like faith were imprisoned for preaching the gospel according to the dictates of their conscience. Note this and remember it: “Never once in their bitter, bloody history have they struck back at their persecutors, or persecuted any other for his faith. That is patriotism touched by the' divine.” • • ■ "mersion, the word baptizo is a ' Greek word and means immersion. ■■ The ‘Greek church, old and knowing; the language, practices immersion only., “For 1300 years was baptism an immersion of the person under water.” This mode symbolizes the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. The* Lord’s Supper is an ordinance and symbolizes the death of Christ upon the Cross. In earlier times the Baptist practiced what was called “close Communion,” now the observance of the Lord’s Supper is left entirely with the individual Christian irrespective of denomination. We as Baptists believe in mis-' sions and Sunday schools. There are eome who do not believe in theee two and they are eaUed “Old School Baptists.” They are conideations in their belief, ani «t -v’. o. „ ;i ■ « ;■; -Wst «• : ... v as Baptists believe in individual responsibility. The first Sunday school in America, dealing strictly in religious education, was founded at the First Baptist church at Philadelphia in 1815. The first Sunday school paper for young people in the United States, the Young Reaper, iwas a Baptist production. So were the International Uniform Sunday school Lessions, which were the work of a Chicago layman, B. F. Jacobs. The first modern missionary, William Cary, was a Baptist. In 1812 Adoniram Judson and Luther Rice were on their way to Calcutta. In Calcutta they became Baptists and Rice returned home to tell the Baptists about it and gain their support. He toured the country, poking the old fires of neglected missionary passion. He had it good story and he knew how to tell it. The Baptists backed him, and sent him back to Calcutta to tell Judson to go ahead. He stirred up and created missionary societies and gave the Baptists a common cause. The Baptists in the United States met in a convention every three years, hence it was called the “Triennial Convention.” Much good came out of this; not only a foreign mission society,-hut one for home missions, too, a Baptist -publication society, and American Baptist historical society, and educational society, aira a young people's union. It also (established some theological seminaries. . -All went well until 1845 wlren there rwas a split over slavery; the southerners withdrew and founded their Southern Baptist Convention, May 8, 1845. The division of the Baptists into northern and southern groups still stands. While efforts at reunion have come to nothing, there is absolute agreement in doctrine between the two and members are transferred without question in an unrestricted amity. At the present time we have 6,600,000 white Baptists and over 4,000,00 Negro Baptists in the south. “It behooves us to read again ' our history, to baptize our minds afresh in our immortal principles, and to contend earnestly, though lovingly, for the ‘faith which was once for all delivered unto the saints’ ‘With malice towards none and charity towards all; with faith in the right ds God gives us to see the right;* asking nothing for ourselves that we do not concede to all others; regarding every soul as a human brother and every saved soul as a Christian brother; with loyalty to the truth as it ia incorporated in the New Testament and with allegiance to Jesus Christ, our only Lord, ‘We life our banner to the air, And swear to guard our legacy.* ** Let tomorrow take care of tomorrow,—.

PMA Elecetions Not. 16 * On Thursday, November 16, farmers of Rappahannock county, and others throughout the state, •will go to the polls, in their local communities, to choose their fellow-farmers as committeemen administer Production and Marketing Administration farm programs during 1951. In each community a farmercommittee of three will be elected, and a delegate who will sit with other community delegates to nam§ a three-man county committee. All committeemen serve for one year, unless re-elected. H. S. Barksdale, chairman of the Rappahannock PMA county committee during the past year, strongly urges fanners to take part in this election of farmers who will (represent them during the coming year, “I can think of no more convincing way for farmers to insure continued effectiveness of their democratic farmer-committee system for local administration of national farm programs than by participating in their own community elections,” Mr. Barksdale said. “As in the past, our objective must be a balanced, abundant production of food and fibre at fair prices, the proper care of our land, and the development of stable communities with opportunities for better living. The decisions and actions of our farmer-elected committees in months ahead will vitally affect progress toward these objectives,” he added. Any farmer who participates in the Agricultural Conservation Program, and- anyone -eligible for, price support purchases or community loans, may vote. Polling places in each community will be published later, with other information. GUESTS OF MR. AND MRS. JAMES M. SETTLE Mr. and Mrs. James M. Settle had as their dinner guests Sunday Mrs. R. J.

Apple Packing Home* Have Dutch Visitors Four Dutch visitors were in the county last Thursday on • study tour of tfte apple packing plants at Sperryville and Flat Woods. The guests were A. W. van d Bplassche, director of horticulture; T. W. van Soest, advisory officer for horticulture; M. Toardekooper, assistant to the censoral bureau of auctions; and. K. J. Bos, chief editor for the Netherlands Fruit Growers Agriculture. Their visit consisted in observation of the working order of the co-operatives. They appeared more interested in the organization and production than in the produce. Being government officials, their interests were not like those of the French delegation which visited the plants some weeks ago. The French group included some orchardists and farmers, and these were as interested in the product as well gs production management. Previous visits have been made by a German and a Dane. The sociability of the occasion was marred with the Frenchmen on a language barrier, when most of the conversation had to go through an interpreter, but the German’s English was sufficient to enable conversation. The Dane appeared to fit into the community better than any of the foreign visitors, and the people of the neighborhood kept him overtime on his visit and regretted seeiing him leave. - , Fyicham—Fipchara, The marriage of Miss Barbara Ann Fincham, daughter of Mrs. Emily Mae Fincham and the late Willie Fincham, of Washington, and Luther Collis Fincham, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Fincham, of Washington, took place Saurday, October 21,' 1950, at 1 o’clock at the home of the Rev.
