Applies ' For Rale Increase The Virginia Telephone A Telegraph Company on Tuesday, December 5, filed an application with the Virginia State Corporation Commission asking for increases in its exchange rates, and for certain other minor changes in its General Exchange Tariff provisions and rates, that will affect . some few customers in all of the company's exchanges. Requested rates for some exchanges would become effective only after conversion to dial epsration. N. A. Mahone, Northern Virginia district manager for the company, said that increased rates were now imperative if the company was to earn a fair return on its investment and continue to improve and expand Its facilities and service. Mr. Mahons said that it was Hot possible for the company to borrow the large amounts of money required to continue new construction and expansion unless the company could make a fair return on its present investment which, in spite of every economy, it has not been able to do for many months pest under Re present rates. - » Tfo1 rates- applied for, Mr. Ms-' bone said, ere the minimum rates which will produce sufficient revenue to return to the company the required and reasonable cost of conducting its business. He said that the company had invested more money in capital additions to its plant in Virginia since the war than its entire investment at that time and there —is still orach to be done. This can only be done, Mr. Mahons stated, U the company's financial position is improved by the application of rates commensurate r with the cost of furnishing the jfNrvte*. j_.. Mr. Mahons noted that money paid by the customers in rates cannot be end is not used to pay for new construction end expansion. This, he said, most come from borrowed money in the form of bonds, stocks, and notes. The money paid by the customer goes for operating expenses such as .. -wages, taxes, maintenance, etc., together with interest on the . money invested. . ^ Speaking of costs,"the manager pointed out that his company has been required to make a number of general wage increases since the war and that the cost of materials which the company had to purchase had increased to an even greater extent and this at a time .when the company had the largest requirements for labor and material in its history. ' • Mr. Mahone expressed the hope that the Commission, would, after investigation, grant the increase sought and enable the company to continue to improve the service to its present customers and proceed With its expansion program.

Conservation Funds Announced By PMA >. • r Rappahannock county hat bean allocated 146,477.00 to assist the farmers in carrying out soil and water conservation practices next year under the Agricultural Con* serration Program. This amount represents only a part of the total conservation in* vestment which farmers will make under the program, Chairman H. S. Barksdale of the PMA county committee said. He explained that PMA shares the cost with farmers and on most practices the Government pays about 60 per cent of the out-of-pocket cost. This as* sistance may be in the form of . materials'such as lime, fertiliser, or seed, or may be in cash. The Chairman said that the 1051 Agricultural Program in Virginia will continue to stress the fee of lime, phosphate, cover crops, and pasture seed. Rappahannock PMA County Committee selects from a State handbook those practices which are best adapted to th# local type of farming and which will effect the greatest amount 5f eoriaervS-* tion for the money available. A copy of practices selected for Rappahannock county will be terali farmers in the near future., Mr. Barksdale said that the; PMA county office is now taking reports from fanners on conservation practices carried out under the I960 Agricultural Conservation Program. He urged the farmers to make their reports promptly if they are eligible for cash AOP payments or if they have used materials received under PMA’s purchase order plan.. Farmers will not be allowed credit until reports are properly filed. Honing* Buy Property In Jenkins Hollow Mr. and Mrs. S. E. Hening have purchased the “chalet” type of five-room cottage and 45 acres of land in Jenkina Hollow from Mr. and Mrs. George Jenkins. It was formerly the Hawkins property and later owned by Wade Jenkins, it is located about three miles from Sperryville, in the center of Hie properties being bought and developed as week-end, Vacation.: and retirement homes in that area adjoining Shenandoah National Park.. " ’-v * Ci Because of its' attractive set* ting and atmosphere Mr. and' Mrs. Hening are naming the place “Peaceful Valley,” and are beginning to modernise the bouse and landscape the surroundings. In addition to the cottage the property contains six springs, a tog cabin and two spring houses. Electricity was installed in that section by the power company last year and the road to F.T. Valley, baa been improved by th# State Highway Department. -L LANDSCAPING PROJECT POSTPONED TO SPRING Due to weather conditions, the landscaping of the VJP.W. grounds at Sperryville, which was to have been done November 28, will be postponed until spring. Mrs. John Revercomb, chairman, has asked that everyone interested in beautifying the grounds will save the flowers, and shrubs they have to donate until spring. > High Demand Predicted For Farm Products Rising demand for farm prod* ucts and • 15 per eent increase in net farm income, is predicted for 1951 by agricultural econo* mists at V.EJL • The economists say that not* withstanding the sharp declines in prices and income in the past two years, farmers in general are in a sound position financially. Bank deposits in rural areas have declined only moderately, and the Value of farms has declined but. slightly. A survey 4n mld-1949 showed that nearly two-thirds of Virginia farmers had debts of less than $50. .Farms sire well equipped 4 With machinery and livestock and are in excellent condition for a ’.high level of production. 4 Non-farm income to farm fami* lies likely will be moderately highi dr in 19-51.

Most of the county was without electric power from about 10 ' o'clock in the morning to 4 in the afternon, and the telephones were out most of the day., Harris Hollow, near Washington, caught a particularly heavy wind-etorm, as did the section near Castleton. In Harris Hollow; xoofb were ripped from small buildings, and apple trees as well as large shade trees erere blown over. In Flint Hill a tree fell into a side of the front porch of the Ricketts HoteL In Washington a tree blear across the power Une near Mrs. A. M. Venter’s home. While she iwas standing outside her home, looking at the broken tree ant. power link, a piece of pipe was blown from the house and struck Mrs. Verner on the bead, knocking her oat. To add to the Washington don-' fusion, fire-siren wires shorted! and three times the screaming fire alarm brought the firemen rushing out into the bad weather. Signs were blown down all along the highways and at filling stations. Few fodder shocks were left standing. Neighbors in Front Royal got more snow than foil in Rappahannock but they did not hare the high winds. Nearly everyone in Front Royal had cellars to pump dry. In Culpeper there iwas trouble with high water, and one bus load of school children was marooned and had to be taken In by neighbors.

Fire Destroys Smoot Home Monday Night Fire completely destroyed the borne of Arthur Smoot on Monday night. The family had left the 6-coom home, located on the Fodders tack road at the Resettlement, when the terrific wind-storm of the day had blown away the roof from the hen-house and barn. Mr. Smoot and his wife and two children became frightened and decided to leave their home where toe wind-storm seemed so fierce to go to the home of his brother nearby. T The family had had very little fire in the house all day because of the danger from the winds and they thought they had checked all fires before they left the house. By the time they arrived at the home of his brother, flames could be seen at their own home. Ned Jones had to drive to the town of Washington to turn in the fire alarm, as all telephone lines had fallen to the heavy winds. By the time the fire company could arrive, the fire had such head-way that nothing could be done to save the house. The property was partially covered by insurance. jt. Foster Fire Soea Pet Oat A fire Tuesday at Ned Foster’s home, on the Fodderstack road near Hint Hill was soon extinguished. A neighbor riding by saw the smoke and warned the family.

MM Orchestra Conductor Chooses Rappahannock As Musical Festival Site William Haaker, director of the Virginia Symphony Orchestra, has contracted a disease well-known •round the county. He and Mrs. Haaker have fallen in lore with Rappahannock’s scenic beauty and they are making R possible for tile county to have a student colony of the 'Virginia Symphony Orchestra established here in the beautiful mountains. Mr. Haaker was, in the county; three days early this week and visited possible sites for the location of a music colony. His ideas included the possibilities of using a barn, or some similar building, where rehearsals and concerts could be held. The music term or Rudy for the summer would be about six weeks in length,' per* haps the last three weeks in July -and the first three in August. Summer music festivals are " held by musicians in a few other states, and some, like Interlocken and Berkshire Hills, have become quite famous. No such colony has ever been established ij| Virginia. and, of necessity,' would have tar begin on small scale and- build up, as the other now-famous ones hsd to do. These summer music festivals bring the regular musicians who play with the Virginia Orchestra, as well as instructors and talented young music students. These musicians enjoy a summer camp and use the free summer weeks foe_1 ~ltudy and rehearsaL The hope of Mr. Hanker, conductor and director, is that Virginia musicians will not have to seek and out-ofstate music camp, but that one can be established in Virginia and grow to the fame of some of the_ camps in other states. It has been reported that while in the county Mr. and Mrs. Hanker examined the old mill between—' Washington and Massie’s Corner (known as Baggarly’s Old Mill) and they were very favorable in their comment^. This building could not be put in ehape for use this summer, however, and perhaps one of the school buildings might have to be used the first season. It is also reported that the old woolen mills at Laurel Mills had been offered for inspection as a possible site, but Mr, Haaker did not have time to inspect this property before he had to return to Richmond. Several other counties in the state have volunteered to do anything necessary in order to have this summer colony located in their-county, but Rappahannock’* natural beauty and its location so. close to Skyline Drive give it a preference. Rappahannock, in order to have this summer music festival located within its borders, has one requirement. The county must provide, a reasonable number of memberships in the Virginia Orchestra Guild at the price of $3 per membership and there is no restriction as to territory. The membership tickets may be sold anywhere —in surrounding counties or distant cities. A membership ticket* ^ entitles the member to atten dance at three concerts given by, the Virginia Symphony Orchestra. It is reported that the Rappahannock Garden Club will be offered the sponsorship of the project. • ■ ‘ „ An opinion has been expressed that if the county succeeds in obtaining the location of a permanent Virginia Orchestra Festival camp, the county will be the envy, of the other 99 counties in the state. The county stands in the position of “everything to gain and nothing to lose.” If enough work cannot be done by the citizens in : the county to sell the required number of memberships to attend the concerts, then the money can be returned to those Vvho have ii tickets and' the Virginia Orchestra camp will accept pne of the- invitations extended by other counties for the camp’s location. r LUNCH ROOM PROBLEMS TO FEATURE P-T.A MEETING The P.-T.A. of Flint HiU met last night and has called a meeting for Thursday night, December ' 14, at 7:80 p.m. at Flint HiU School.

Subscription: —— (2.00 a year Investment In Humanity (By Elisabeth Bun tin) ^ Maybe you saw our advertise* znent in last week’s “News.” If we hadn’t been rushed, we wouldn’t have used this method of asking for foster homes, because we don’t feel that a foster home is a commodity. It’s not like fire wood, or ja stove, or a farm implement. The more we think of it, the more differences we can see. But perhaps before we go into it any further we had better make sure everybody knows what a foster home is. A foster home gives chid- . dren care away from their own home. There have always been foster homes. Back in the old days when living was a lot easier there were people who “took in” homeless children. Now most foster nomes w^rtc through welfare. departments and other child placing agencies. In thia way children are given protection that they didn’t have in those , days. There always have been good folks who would raise children not their own, but they might have been frightened to be called foster parents. Just lately we have become used to the term. -Afoster hama ia not. something you can buy or sell. When we put that ad in the paper, we might as ‘ well have said we wanted to buy foster homes. That is not what iwe meant at all, 'because if people go into being foster parents for the money they can get/ they are going to be disillusioned, and the children will suffer too. If they sue going into it for the money alone, it isn’t worth it. This is not to say that homes which board children as a means of supplementing their incomes are bad. What 1 do mean is that anyone taking children must be willing to meet the children’s needs and ■ not just his own needs. Our wisest foster parents know that^ children must be taken for themselves. .

A kindergarten pupil was sent home and told to ask mamma or poppa to teach her' a poem. She returned to her school the next day and here's what she recited: “Lettuce denby uppen doing Widow Hartford N E'fate . Ear-ache cheevin, ear-par sueing v. Learn to label and two eight.” The teacher didn’t know whether to be pleased or offended. There is still some question in her mind as to whether the parents were making fun of the school’s curriculum, or whether they were really trying to help. * * * i The newspapers told us last week of a Christmas parade out .in some mid-west town where the smart-alecky adolescents of the town snow-balled the parade Santa and succeeded in behaving themselves like a bunch of hoodlums. It never occurred to them, of course, that there were little fellows in the crowds to see the parade who had anticipated this appearance of old St. Nick with long hours of impatient waiting. Part of my own disgust was accompanied by chagrin. Not long .ago this column had stated that children are better now than they used' W be-*—and af course, 5this story of the behavior of a few was thrown at me to make me eat rake, you give a certain sum'of money for the article, and you make mire you get your money’s worth. With foster care you are giving, at first, much more than you get. It’s necessary to have a lot of imagination, a lot of faith, and much <x>urager~Y<rar-foster child is like a seedling plant that you want to make bloom. You make sure it has the right soil, enough water, and the right amount of sunlight. In the same way you give a foster child nourishment and guidance, and you find no matter how much physical care you give the child, he .Won’t flourish without the sunshine of your affection. Love is as important for him as good housekeeping. Although progress may be slow, you will finally see the results of your labor. Your child will begin to return some of the affection you have given him and you will see improvement in all directions. Fester Care is like an investment. In fact it is an investment in humanity. Your dividends will be the satisfaction you get from being able to help this child, with knowing you are doing your bit toward helping humanity, with giving this service for the betterment of your community. Would some of you be interested in making this investment? We do need foster homes in Rappahannock County. Your welfare office is the broker. We’d be glad to try to interest you in some of our stock.

All right, as the old follow Mid, "I doao ot" - V Too shortly there will come a day when those half-grown boys and girls will regret their ill behavior. Wo all know that. We never thought when we were noisy along the street that there was sickness at one home and we were disturbing the ill person. It surely must have been the same with those youngsters who thought it was funny to break up a Santa Claus parade. They never thought that there were children present to whom that Santa was real and represented exciting anticipation of hanging up the stockings on Christmas Eve. In fact the'whole sum total results in the same reason for all our ill behavior: twe just don’t think about the other fellow. ♦ * ♦ Faithfully and for years the newspapers have furnished reading mater, but if they don’t start printing better news, we should all protest and limit our reading to the comics and the ads. On second thought, the ads are the only reading matter fit to read. At least, the merchants are trying to attract your attention to have you buy something for your money. The front page is filled with' nothing but horrible war news. The inside is mainly stories of crimes.

Now there’s real elevating literature i(?) The words roll around from your mouth with real polish! Yep, even I sound intelligent when I read that aloud! Now, let's see, what could it mean? ~ “Carbon”—that’s—-somethingwhen you put it between two sheets of paper, it makes an extra, copy without any extra work, but be careful you put the right side down or you’ll have a mirrored extra copy on the back of the top page. ~~~"y - —^ - “Bituminous” — let’s see, that goes with anthracite, or some . other big word. It sounds as if it might fit niecly into a popular song—like that Chattanooga boy who polished shoes—it’s a nice, euphonious word; strange some of tiie song writers haven’t discover* ed it. “Hydrogen”—leave that word alone. It sounds like some of the war hews stories on page one, “Oxygen”—yeah, we all know what that is: you breathe it. “Nitrogen" — that’s fertiliser, ain’t it? “Sulphur”-r-ah! now we know all about that. Gran’ma always used that word hyphenated with molasses for a spring tonic. Also, when combined with lard, it’s good for an ailment associated with a former day when parents weren't so fanatical on the euhject of baths, and bathing was a weekly ordeal undertaken in the wash tub in the kitchen. “Varius Minor Inorganic Constituents”-—phew!

FOOD PRICES SLATED FOR INCREASE Food prices are slated for a sub* stantial increase. Price of most fats and oils, with the exception of lard, also are expected to go up. Retail prices of fresh and processed fishery products will be some higher, and canned salmon Dairy prices aren’t expected to increase as much as those of other foods, because of large stocks such as cheese, and the fact that dairy product prices usually respond less rapidly to change in consumer income.

U. Uvermore, poultry marketing special1st at V.P.I. Livermore says the “no price support program for 1951” recently announced by the Department of Agriculture probably will have these results: The sharp decline in egg prices will begin as early as mid-December; and prices will remain low until a substantial movement of eggs into storage gets underway in lain February. Low spring prices ere expected to cease e reduction in the number of chickens . raised next spring to replace fall laying flocks. ^ . ;>,r Fewer fall layers wfh mean t higher prices for eggs next fall. The 1951 fall prices .we expected to be high enough to bring the average price for the year above the average for 1900. * . Included in the “no price sup* port" announcement was a hint that there might be limited pur* chase of shell eggs in local areas if the need arises for price stabilisation. Shell egg purchases next year will repend on the ability of the Department of Agriculture to dispose of them immediately ' a HANNING AHEAD SURE KEEPS Mi AHEAD!' GET IH 5-STAR SERVICE NOW! "Y*, sir.
