Hallowe’en Party At Amissville Baptist Church Some hundred or more attended the Hallowe’en party given by the Amissville Baptist church} Monday night, October 80. There were more than 150 people that were in costume and a parade was the first event of the evening. The judges were unable to decide on the best dressed individual, as many were very well concealed by their costume for the evening. Some of those who were able to throw the rubber ball through the cat’s mouth were as follows; Catherine Laing, Gloria Curtis, Doris Hackley, Sandra Lee Rowzie, Carol Rowzie, Dick Martin, and Floyd Hitt. * During the evening there was a sing-song of tunes like “The More We Get Together," “I Rather Have Fingers than Toes,” “Shortenin’ Bread’’ “Home on the Range’’ “Someone’s in the Kitchen.” As a closing devotional phase of thb program inside the church a film-strip was shown entitled “A Certain Nobleman” by the pastor Rev. M. E. Sliger. The crowd then went outside to roast “hot-dogs” and drink apple cider. y ' * ■ , .Hallowe'en Zi :¥£i{witchf* ■ r^id*y/ eyen[rnjir at .“Delamore” . when Miss Becky Jones entertain-' ed i group, of her'friends at a hallowe’en party.

Clayton Mays, of Ssndidges, present owner of (he heifer, was awarded $150 as a total of prize winnings at the Atlantic Rural Exposition. DAMAGE DONE BY HALLOWE’EN TRICKSTERS As always, tricks were played on Hallowe’en, some in fun and some which cannot be "classed as fun. The worse damage done in Sperryville was at Bob Estes’s Gift Shop where a window, 28x14, •was broken, 20 bushels of apples destroyed and at least. 5 bushels taken away; his shop sign .was broken down and a table taken away. This represents a considerable loss of property and comes under the head of vandalism, not fun. Of course, the usual soaping of cars and windows took place all over the county. A dangerous piece of ntischief took place in Washington where cinder 'blocks were piled on the road on Mt. Salem avenue. Fortunately, these were noticed by someone passing and were re-i moved before they caused a serious accident. The rest of the pranks -wefe clean fun that caused no damage to anyone’s property, and the youngsters found the treats served by neighbors for “trick or treat” were delicious. T ■ ..1.

Lyne County Agent > The field w$rk in connection with a bulletin to be published by V.P.I. agricultural experiment station on . the economic opportunity offered by the farm lands of Rappahannock county was completed . yesterday 'by Alex Harris, who has been working in the county since July 1 of this year. Screening the work with Mr. Harris yesterday, I was very pleased to note that in comparisbn to size Rappahannock offered much more agriculturally than did several of our neighbomig counties having already been’ classified. While the exact date of publication of this information if not known, it is felt such will be influenced by requests for such being done by Rappahannock citizens to Dr. H. N. Young, director V.P.I. Experiment Station, Blacksburg. In addition to economic opportunity data this publication includes information on climate, soils, .population, size of -.farms, land use, transportation and public services, markets, source of income, etc. rne project was started under Governor Colgate Darden’s administration and to date about, half of Virginia’s counties have been ■worked. Much curiosity is being expressed o*'er what picture will be used for the cover, to date two possibilities have been suggested: the Courthouse or one of our Apple Packing and Cold Storage buildings. Bulletins already off the press have used pastoral scenes, schools, etc., and in addition illustrate each class of farm. The Northern Virginia Livestock Producers Association will hold its first annual fat livestock show and sale Monday, December 18, at the Farmers Livestock Exchange near Winchester. Rules and regulations are available at the county agent’s office Saturday. November 18 is the final date set for making nominations.

Harrison reply to charges which he had said are being made by Republicans over radio and in newspaper advertising. Mr. Harrison stated that the Republicans do not say that he has neglected his district; they fail to mention that he has visited every precinct in his district annually to meet his constituents and to hear any criticism or suggestions; and they have not criticized his voting record, even on the most controversial issues in Congress. , Mr. Harrison said that he does not approve of everything in Washington (D.C.) and that some things have been done over his protest. Admitting that he had made mistakes, and.^ may make others, Representative Harrison said that they were mistakes of the mind and not of the heart, and that he will continue to serve the district and the nation conscientiously.

Four be the things I'd been better without: Love, curiosity, freckles, and i doubt.—Dorothy Parker. Voting, Everybody*! Job; How WU1 You __ Measure Up The right to vote is priceless. Following an apathetic pace, however, Americans have permitted their right to go unexercised until scarcely one person in two has voiced his opinion in recent elections. . . This is unfair to the persons; elected to office. It is dangerous for the people «f the land. It will be interesting to see the number of qualified voters in Rappahannock who cast their vote on Tuesday. •- .■ .- - ‘ One of these days perhaps the threat can be carried out: publish the name of every voter who does not cast his ballot and then blame him for anything that goes wrong. We shall point accusing fingers at those who did not cast ballots: “It is all your fault; if you had -* voted and elected the right person, this would not have happened.” A fellow, berating the misbeguided heads of the government, was called down by a neighbor who stated, “You said you didn’t even vote. What right have you to criticize the government when you didn’t do your small part toward it?” The neighbor made a nice, permanent enemy, for few of mankind take kindly to such a call-down, but it was the blank truth. Election Day, Tuesday It is the duty of every voter to mark his ballot Tuesday. This great democracy stands only so long as the people exercise their part in the government and state their desires. Your Congressman has no way to know of what you approve unless you tell him, and the best way to let him know is cast your vote on Election Day. Congressman Burr P. Harrison seeks re-election at the polls Tuesday. Mr. Harrison always has given particular attention to the problems of fruit growers. Earlier this year, he was instrumental in having Rappahannock county certified as a disaster loan area by the Department of Agriculture, as a result of weather damage to the preceding crop. Mr. Harrison arranged the conferences at the Department of Agriculture in which representatives of Rappahannock, as well as of eight other Northern Virginia counties and two cities, presented a plan for establishment of a Regional Home for the Aged on the lands of the former Army Remount Depot at Front Royal. He is continuing to emphasize thd need for early accomplishment of this project. Mr.. Harrison visits Rappahannock, and the other counties of the Seventh District, as often as legislative duties permit, and he makes it a point to givie every citizen an opportunity to talk with him at least once each year in the citizen’s home community. He believes it is up to the Congressman to make himself available to the people for whom he works— the citizens of his district. He tries to give prompt attention to each inquiry or request from a constituent, and constitu FOOTBALL Saturday, November 4 T« Be Broadcast o»er WCVA Culpeper High ^School C if Falls Church RS.

Mr. Harrison has voted for every motion to reduce non-essential Federal expenditures. He supported the -f5 50,000,000 acrossthe-board reduction in the General Appropriation Bill, and voted for a new limitation on personnel of regular government agencies. Congressman Harrison’s most important assignment in this Congress has been on the House Committee on Un-American Activities. He is the third-ranking member, and often has been designated to preside at subcommittee hearings, where vital information on the operation Of Communist espionage and sabotage rings has been uncovered. He took part in drafting the Internal Security Act of 1950, and served on the important Senate-House Conference Committee which adjusted differences in two versions of this significant new legal weapon against Communists and other subversives within the United States. Congressman Harrison's record shows that he has been a conscientious servant to his folks in the Seventh District. His primary interest has always been for .the best interest of his constituents. A past record of faithful service gives every necessary indication that he will continue to serve well in the House of Representatives. VThe Time Hat Come * § i - 1 the Walrus said . . • : i i | In Sunday’s New York Times David Manning White compiled a list of the Great Bard’s references to election day, or polling day. They ran something like this: “The devil knew not what he did when he made man politic.” • “Who chooseth me shall get as much as he deserves,” comes forth from the Merchant of Venice. From Hamlet comes “I eat the air, promise-crammed.” And from the Merry Wives of Windsor, old Bill Shakespeare brings out “The devil take one party and his dam the other!” ¥ ¥ ¥ Someone quotes—or misquotes, —old Governor Berkeley as saying that he hoped he never lived to see the day of a free press and free public education. There are* times when one can understand his opinion. The trouble with most of us is that we learn to read and then get into trouble reading. In a recent paper appeared this quote of Georgia Neese Clark, Treasurer of the United States, on what “emancipation” has done for women: “The American woman today is constantly on the defensive because of her own inadequacies and consequently she is overwhelmed because she,. does not measure up.” In the future my reading shall be limited to the columns of Dorothy Dix and the comic page. Some of this other junk gets me all confused. ¥ ¥ ¥ The best and quickest way to get into trouble is to express an opinion on “as I see it.” You’re not going to see any situation with the exact vision of your neighbor—and there the trouble begins. Take some of the reactions to the Collier story on Washington, as an example. The editor of Rappahannock News knew about the mop (or foddershock) on the top of the dome which would make the term “redheaded” undeniable, but the two words “pert” and “saucy” had never entered beneath the shock of the red mop. “W’ould some power!” Ah, well! Heavenward may go the petition that such adjectives may be the least accusing ever used in describing the said editor—though the answer to that prayer is not anticipated. ¥ ¥ ¥ Plenty of America becomes nauseated at the way debunking Theatre Shows start at 7:15 and 9 P.M.

We have no compunctions about the general cussing given a man at present in public office, but the way the dead are beat around in historical retrospect hits a shade of slightly off-color. It brings to mind an old saying: “Now that the old lion is dead, every ass thinks he may kick him.” Many people who did not agree with the policies of the late President of the United States still do not feel that the rank criticism, so much the vogue of the day, accomplishes anything for the good of the nation, and to the opinion of Bqme it is rank poor taste. * ¥ ¥ An old saying goes that a thunder storm in the late fall means a sudden cold spell, but it missed the mark the first of .the week. After the thunder-storm Saturday, it turned to the unseasonable heat of 80 degrees—according to Snooks Lillard’s thermometer at Amissville. Smart-alecks went about saying, “Short winter, wasn’t it?” In one section of the county there is a real estate agent who should be having pangs of conscience. He got two city-sick females down into Rappahannock during the season when the foliage is so beautiful that it’s unbelievable and during a most unseasonably hot spell for the last of October. That real estate agent (he oughta’ foe ashamed!) showed the two unsuspecting ladies one of the . loveliest hunks of mountainside in the county, and sent them back to the unglamorous city with their dreams in the clouds of Rappahannoelj. Did he betha* to tell» those two ladies that the weather is not like this warm spell on every last week in October? Did he make aspecial effort to impress upon the poor city-gals that the winds may whistle raw around those presently gorgeous hills? Did that real estate broker go out of his way to let the little ladies know that all the world and days could not compare with the particular day they signed the purchase agreement? Those are the $64 questions. You answer ’em! P.S.—We shall soon have two new lady citizens in Rappahannock. P.P.S.—They used to live in the city. County Teacher* Answer Pegler in Richmond Paper Two teachers of Rappahannock county gave Westbrook Pegler a sound “going oveir in letters to the editor of Ricjhmond TimesDispatch recently) Mr. Pegler stuck his neck out and the local teachers chopped it. The columnist had criticized the educational system in general and teachers in particular and one letter from Sperryville gave the gentleman to understand that he didn’t know exactly wheireof he spoke. The' other letter, signed by one who termed himself — or herself — a “baby sitter” for the children of the county, but reminded Mr. Pegler of the regular rates for baby-sitters and compared those rates with teachers’ pay.

Birthday This to the first birthday anniversary of Rappahannock News. The first issue of Rappahannock’s own county newspaper was published just a year ago—November 8, 1949. , The top of the first pAge bears the notation: Vol. II—No. 1. All publications denote years in this same fashion; a year is designated by the volume number and the issue number follows. Last week was Volume 1, No.' 82, since there are '52 weeks in a year. The printers at Rappahannock News office have had as pleasant a first year as was ever known 1 ' We’ve made new friends and found out what iwe already knew before we ever came to Rappahannock: the finest people in the world live in the county. More kindnesses ,have been shown than would have, been thought possible—and more than could be numbered. Many pieces of what might have been considered “good luck” turned out to be favors that had been done for the paper by friends, and they didn’t want to have credit for the help given, nor did they want especial thanks. We know that many kind deeds and helps thrown the way of the new paper have never been known by the printers. The printers have worked—all printers do—but the pleasant associations and the fine friends we have made in* the county during this first year have made the time fly by on wings. It has been the shortest and happiest year we have Iver known. . ..This is„an expression of „thank* from the printers of your county paper: thanks to all the people who have made our year so happy and successful; and thanks to the folks who have supported the county paper and been so loyal to it. Great men are they who see that spiritual is stronger than material force; that thoughts rule the world.—Emerson. C. L.
