* Library nond-19 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, JULY 5, 1951 Construction Completed At Aron Mills Avon Mills, lovely site of the Virginia Orchestra’s summer camp, has its repair work completed, according to Paul A. Walker, contractor in charge of the contraction work. Mr. Walker states that it was an interesting piece of work and was satisfactory, in that it was a pleasure to see the old mill come back to life and usefulness after many decades of being idle. The old reck walls were repointed, and in the rear «f the building, where the rock wall is into the side of the hill, a solid concrete wall was poured. 'This concrete cannot be seen and the old mill retains its picturesque look of age, with a solid foundation. ' | New steel trusses have been installed and as many of the old original hand-hewn beams were left intact in order tint the building would be strong and keep as much of the old as possible. Mr. Walker states that on one of the old hand-hewn columns in the center of the mill was found the stamped name of George Galvert, a contemporary of George Washington. This name seems to have been burned in with a hot stamp, similar to a branding iron. It is presumed that such was the custom of the day when the old mi}l was built. Mr.. Walker was present on the evening set for testing acoustics. He says that 200 feet back from the mill, on the edge of the natural amphitheatre, the softest note struck on the piano on the stage could be heard easily. The front of the mill opens by removing wooden doors, showing the stage (you can't say “orchestra pit” since it is elevated) in three tiers. The podium is one of the old wooden wheels "that was in the mill. The eix old miU stones are placed before the mill between the orchestra and the audience. Tentative programs for the first concerts have been set and will be published soon. A complete outline of the Music Festival organization appears on page 3 .of'this issue. —a——'tfCol.

Tbs Rer. Mr. Estes is in the county visiting bis brother, James A. Estes, at Sperryville. RAPP • OHATS By: W. H. Lyne County Agent Rappahannock sheepmen were advised by W. S. Belfield, presi- _ dent of the "National Southdown" Breeders Association, that both his purebred and commercial flocks of ewes were never fed groin, as his quality pasture and forage program made grain feeding unnecessary. For pasturage other than during the breeding season Mr. Bellfield prefers Ladino mixed with Red Clover to facilitate seeding. During the breeding season he prefers straight bluegrass and White Dutch Clover pastures. Mr. Bellfield also brought out that sheep thrived on variety and while his sheep pastures consisted primarily of these grasses and legumes there were always other natural plants to provide the variety. For early winter and early spring grazing Mr. Bellfield uses a mixture of small grains at 1 bu. wheat, 1 bu. barley, 1 bu. rye per aere plus 700 lbs. 8-12-6. Ewes are not allowed to graze small grain covered with hoar frost. Charlie Funkhoueer advised the sheep farmers with ewe flocks to stay away from the fat lamb feeding project unless they had extra acreages, housing equipment etc., as to attempt conducting the two sheep enterprises together usually proved disastrous are result* of introduced diseases, external parasites, when local late produced lambs were to be fed. The other source is western lambs which are usually free of diseases and parasites and which “will submit to dry lot feeding’' contrary to what might be expected of our native lambs. Mr. Funkhouser I understood feeds both local and western and plans to continue doing so as long as “they treat The like they1 have been doing in past several years”. Mr. Funkhouser feeds equal parts by weight baled soybean hay and ear com ground in a hammer mill. Although there was a $15.50 spread In production values of the high and low ewe in the demonstration flock not one in attendance could pick them out. This tends to confirm the belief expressed by Mr. Funkhouser that the only really sound way to cull a ewe flock fe through efficiency records. Burke selected the high producing ewe while D. D. Miller and Donald Gore were successful in picking out the low producer. • * * Use Milky Disease Spore Dost e e e At the fruit growers meeting last Wednesday, Fred Drieling, associate horticulturist of VPI Extension Service, advised the Virginia Peach Crop was beginning to move to market at $3.50 in half bushel baskets. The national crop is expected to be around 65-million bushels compared to 52 million last year and a 71-million crop ten year average. Both quality and size is expected to be good although in some sections there is brown rot and oriental fruit moth damage. Drieling expects the Virginia crop to bring somewhere near $3.50 a bushel. Peach growers were advised the next spray card would be. out in early July with the spray to be applied to this section 5th to 7th^ He suggested that local growers start with the wettable sulphur and continue weekly applications up to picking. Regarding apples— Drieling stated national production was expected to be around 115 million bushels and the West to be short on Delicious; Virginia., production is'expected to be a bit under that of last year but with favorable conditions could equal it. Pack out is expected to be higher'as result of leu favorable scab weather and more effective spraying oh the part of orchardists. Findings in local orchards wfer* iTfollows: European Red mite—not alarms ing, for most orchards only one or fraction thereof per leaf. One orchard 4*7 per leaf, which demands immediate spraying. Leaf Roller evidence indicated between broods at present thus advice regarding both mitee and leaf roller is for orchardista to inspect their trees carefully around July 1012. If you find one leaf roller per sproud use Ro thane. for Black Rot use li lbs ferbam with a spreader (Triton B is popular). Considerable fire blight was observed in yofing trees. The only control measure is pruning of diseased branches being careful to prune well below diseased area to prevent spread ef bacteria through farther use of equipment and burning of diseased branches. (See RAPP-CHATS, page 4.) F.F.A. and F.H.A. Club* Attend Camp Members of Rappahannock High School Future Farmers of America and Future Homemakers of America enjoyed their week’s camping at Smithfield. This camp, known as Mogat’s Beach, is owned and operated by the state FFA and FHA organizations. Activities such as swimming, boating, horseshoe throwing, soft-* ball, croquet, dancing, and fishing were enjoyed by all. ,0f course, there were sunburns, also, very much to everyone’s disgust. Those attending were: girls— Jean Brown, Alice Mae Coughlin, Bonnie Gentry, Catherine Lillard, Lois Racer, Helen Nethers, and Shirley Weaver; boys—Harold - Brown, Bobbie Carter, Edwagd Armentrout, George Pullen, and George Lawrence. Miss Charlotte <Golladay and# R. C. Beck accompanied the group as chaperons. “ADD A DOLLAR” CAMPAIGN WILL CLOSE SOON Yesterday was a holiday and 'with the bank and many offices closed, it was impossible to check on the number of dollars on the “Add A Dollar” signs posted about Washington by the Baptist Sunday school to help with the building fund. The purpose of this campaign was to give an opportunity to those who felt that they were not able to make large donations, but could “add a dollar” to the signs as a spare dollar came around. Reports will be collected in the near future to see how the dollars have , been added, and the campaign will be closed in a few weeks. Mrs. Massie Elected To Head Fire Auxiliary The Woipen’s Auxiliary of the Rappahannock Fire Department had its regular meeting on Monday evening, July 2, on the Fire House Lawru There were tern members present.

Most of the aches and pains occasioned by a long crowded bus ride have been erased by extra rest and the travelers are getting back to normal. Life will never be the same again for these lucky six people. The whole week was crammed with exciting and interesting classes. A spirited political campaign complete with printed posters, promises and pep talks was featured for election of short course officers for 1952. Un i'TMJay mgnt tne ah oiars . honorary leadership organization, topped their new members, 30 girls and 26 boys, all outstanding in achievement and leadership. It is the greatest honor obtainable in 4-H to be,chosen for this club. It is a great thirll to the members chosen, as they do not know of their election until the moment their names are called out, and they are escorted around the circle to be presented to the Big Chief, and their records are declared worthy by the Chief Scribe. There were 3 foreign guests this year, including Mias Myunt May, a farm youth worker from Burma; Peter Tovborg Jenson, farm youth advisor from Denmark, and Bruce Patterson,—a young dairy farmer* from New Zealand. Mr. Jenson described the United States as “Not a Country, it’s a World.” His word of advice was “Take care of your freedom, but learn the responsibilities that go with it”. Mr. Patterson, in speaking of “Working together) for Better World».Understanding” (the theme of the Short Course) warned U.S. citizens not to think they “have a monopoly on democracy’ and not to talk of peace and then put in digs abqgt other countries. He pointed out the democracy and freedom of Canada, New Zealand, and Australia, although they are still members of the British Empire. All sorts of State contest winners were announced and awards presented during the week. These are annual awards and they included trips to Chicago for the 4-H Club Congress in November; 17-jewel watches, and sets of silverware, various cash awards. Among the classes offered were Dairy Judging and Demonstration, Livestock Judging, Poultry Production and Management, Tractor Operation and Maintenance, Song Leadership, Came Leadership, Folk Game Leadership, Tips on Preparing Record Books, Instruction in basic ballroom dancing steps and social courtesies that go with them, a course in good manners called “It's Fun Being Correct”. There were many demonstrations given along most project lines offered in 4-H. As if these were not enough, Friday night, after the impressive All Star ceremony, a huge progressive party was given, with movies, stunts, songs, folk games, dancing and refreshments, not to mention the last event of all, when the 380 delegates, including 41 leaders, 40 farm and home agents, 3 foreign guests and 6 instructor* and many visitors met in a great camp fire circle and each renewed hig pledge: “My Head to Clearer Thinking, My Heart to Greater Loyalty, My Hands to Larger Sery vice for ml Club, My Community and my Country.” Each person held a candle and it was an awesome sight to see nearly a thousand flickering flames, symbolizing faithfulness to this pledge for an otner year. « was nearly mramgnc when, benumbed or exhilitrated, as. the case mightJae, when everyone (excepting the inevitable few* who always celebrate loudly with yells, songs and water guns until the small hours, tumbled into bed. ~ Saturday morning reminded -one of a wall-run beehive, with all the bees taking off in buses and cars screaming “goodbye” and “See you next year." Those who attended the course at VPI this year were Jane Riley, Lelia Gentry, Carlyle Lea, Newbill Miller, Kelly Updike, and Mrs. Barbara Gentry. They enjoyed swimming, a tea, entertainment by radio comedians, a talent show, full of real talent, put on by Club members as well as meeting many interesting people, and learning many new skills. —•Mrs. Barbara Gentry. . -WENTERTAIN WITH PICNIC Mr. and Mrs. Brue Wood entertained at a picnic at their pond on their farm “Sunny Slope,” Sunday, having as guests Mr. and Mrs, W. A. Mpore and family and Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Moore and family. Fanners Must File Returns For Social Security July ia the month for fanners with regular hired help to file social security tax returns for the Apnl, May, and June quailter. Regular hired help is defined as a worker on a farm or in a farnv household who meets both of the following conditions: (1) He must have been employed by the farmer continuously for a full calendar quarter. No tax ial due for agricultural labor performed in this qualifying quarter. (2) In the next quarter he is employed by the same farmer in agricultural labor on a full-time basis for at least 60 days, and his cash wages for these services are $50 or more. r arm owners and operators who have regular hired help and who have not yet registered for filing the quarterly social security tax , returns should do so immediately in order that they may get on tha mailing list for receiving the tax forms every quarter. Regular farm hands who have never had social security accounb numbers or who have lost their social security cards should apply for new ones or duplicates as the case may be. A woman who does housework in a farm household is considered the same as a hired hand as far as reporting for social security purposes is concerned. In other words, she must meet the same requirements as a hired man to be considered regularly employed. For those hired farm work erg who meet thje requirements of the new law this Government insurance provides monthly payments to them and their dependents when the workers retire after reaching age 65 and pay-t ments to their families when they die. The Alexandria office, in addition to the city of Alexandria, services the counties of Arlington, Culpeper, Fairfax, Fauquier, Loudoun, Prince William, and Rappahannock. Office hours are from 3:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Daylight Time) on Monday through Friday. -rfNew Home Agent Arrives September 1 The Rappahannock Board of Supervisors at their July meeting concurred with the VPI Extension Service in the appointment of Miss Elizabeth Fuss as home agent!

Rappahannock News Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia Dial Washington 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Entered as second-’claaa mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia. Subscription:-$2.00 a year Could We Be To Blame? Every day we read in the city papers of another horrible crime of kidnapping and rape. Here lately, the stories shock and distress more and more frequently. There are bound to be reasons •why such horrible crimes seem to be on the increase. It gives pause for thought that maybe just average citizens are partially to blame. Could it be that today's apparent lack of modesty in Hie dress of women is contributing to such crimes? We see children in little sun suits, and we think that the sun is good for them, but at what age should they begin to dress more modestly? Clayton Rand tells the story of an incident in the Deep South of some years back. A colored man was being hanged for rape, and he was asked if. he had anything he’d like to say before they strung him up. “Yes,” said the colored man, “you wjjite men tell your ladies to be more careful how they act in front of us colored men.” At one time? after a little girl had disappeared and foul play was* suspected, a city paper reported that “all known sex offenders were being rounded up.” It should not take long to round them up: ope should be able to walk down the hall and call each one from his cell, and there would be good proof that he was not guilty because he shouldn’t be turned loose <. on the public. The flagrant manner in which sex-criminals are turned loose may be another reason why <we have these sex crimes. In Charlottesville Tuesday a *- — ■ — w jury recommended the death penalty for a rapist. The man had a sex-criminal record, had been declared, “emotionally unstable” by psychiatrists; and yet, a parole board had turned him loose on the public. Police departments are expected to do the work of protecting the public from crime, but when there is something that citisens could do, it is time for them to begin. If immodesty in dress is a contributing factor to these crimes, then it is time for parents to see that children and young girls are dressed modestly. If parolling of sex criminals is a factor, then citizens should protest such action of parole boards and refuse to allow these maniacs to run at large. -W r I *The Time Hat Come,' t z the Walras laid • • • s ••iiiiiiHiiniii Today’s papers should tell how many people got in free to see “Faith of Our Fathers” on July 4. It had been advertised that anyone who had the name of a signer of the Declaration of Independence would be admitted free that day. Upon digging out a copy of the Great Document, it was discovered —from as many names as are legible—that there might be some difficulty in locating present-day citizens of some of the names. Did the fellow? who thought up that scheme happen to look up the list? There might not be many Francis Lightfoot Lees and Carter Braxtons present, but one of the signers of the Declaration was named James Smith.

MAYNARD “Bossy” Youngsters What is the best approach to a fiveyear-old who is inclined to boss her younger playmaiesf Inasmuch as yon imply your daughter's “bossiness is not extreme," there is no cause for alarm on your part. Five-year-olds frequently tend to boas younger children, although it also should be noted that many at this age become a bit less "bossy" than formerly. As you supervise the play of these ehildreu, suggest to your daughter that “It's fun to take turns doing what each one wants to do,” and then quietly guide their activities so that the younger children have some of their wishes granted. In doing this you may need to guard against the tendency to pay more attention to the young children’s wishes than to your own child's desires. In other words, try to see that there is fair play on the part of all. If your child should become extremely demanding in her play with younger children, it may reflect a resentment against older children who boss her, or even against you and your husband. I don't believe this is the cause of your daughter’s behavior, however. Therefore, let me recommend quiet suggestions rather than scolding or any form of extraneous punishment. Sometimes parents tell their children that they can’t play with younger children until they are willing to do so without bossing them. , f At times this may be effective, although there is a danger that it may stifle qualities of leadership that temporarily are expressing themselves in, , this unfortunate manner. Paying for Home Work .Should children he paid for doing trork at home—masking dishes, moscThis problem of whether or not one should pay children for work done at home cannot be separated from that of an allowance. Aa a member of the family each child should hare some of the privileges that so with family membership. One of these is a share of the family income. This will take the form of an allowance, the amount to be determined by the age and needs of the child and the status of the family hank account. Generally speakinx, the allowance should be large enough to meet tb* . basic needs of the child and to provide a few luxuries, but should not be so large that he feels no need for saving or wise spending. Just as the child should have eoaae of the ( privileges that go along with family membership, so should ha assume some of the responsibilities that inhere In this relationship. These involve work sround the home and yard, let children and parents decide together what are to be the responsibilities of the children. If. for example, washing dishes and mowing lawns era inifndsd. as wsO they may be, certainly children should not be paid for them. There will be emergencies, also, when it is necessary for the entire family to pitch in and help, without any thought of monetary award. On the other hand, if, over and I above the duties regularly assigned to i children, they are asked to do specific tasks for which the family ordinarily ■ pays someone else, then I see no reason why they should not be paid for doing them. But these will be exceptional cases and I would guard at all times against letting children think of work at home primarily in terms of monetary award. The Family Circle We hear much about how important it it jor families to be together. Our children are reaching the age when they want to be with the gang most of the time. They don’t like to hang around home, play games With the family, etc. Frankly, we like for them to be with their friends and we like to be with ours. Should we try harder to keep the family togetherf I’m not sure that you should. When children are young, many happy hours may be spent playing games and having other interesting family experiences. There cornea a time, as it has come for your children, when youngsters want to be out with members of the gang most of the time. You are quite right in feeling that they should have the privilege of being with their friends and you with yours. Certainly you should not chide them because they are not spending more time with you. ‘Nevertheless, it is unfortunate if, as children gtow older, families never have any time together for fun and Dr. Maynard’s new booklet.

Perhaps members of the family can make definite plana to stay at home and enjoy each other one night a week, or, If that is too often, one night a month. Some families may enjoy making popcorn and candy and playing games together; others may enjoy listening to records; still others may want to work on individual bobbies, or just to ‘talk. Occasional tripe together as a family may be enjoyed. Some families enjoy going to a ball game together. In other words, it is wise to plan for occasional family “get-togethers." It should not be forgotten that gangs usually most hare some place to go! Kncourage your children to bring their gangs to your hooee, and then to he earn to remain discreetly in Uw background while they are there. Let them use the living room and the kitchen for their activities. Tour house may not remain as spic and span as it wom^i otherwise, but after ail, youngsters are more important than haring a house In perfect gift? The answer is simple: you may be barefooted, < that doesn’t matter; you may have your housecoat buttoned crooked, that, too, is unimportant; but don’t forget your lorgnette—that’s the vital item! One day recently, one of Washington’s very proper ladies was aroused from her afternoon nap with a query, “Where do you want the gate put off this truck?” “Not in the front yard,” came the reply as she scurried out of the house, thinking some of the farm men were going to dump some gate on her front lawn. The lady's glasses had been broken the day hpfore, so she grabbed a pair of these nose-pincher things (they must be called glauses) that hang on a chain around the neck, and minus shoes, she appeared on the lawn. The gate was a gift, to replace one broken by fox hunters, and the lady driving the truck was a stranger. * Our dear Washington lady had to stand on the front lawn and be introduced to the lady who was delivering the gift gate. If someone had just been there with a camera! What wouldn’t be paid for a picture of the barefoot dignity behind those oxfords with the silver chain, graciously acknowledging an introduction and accepting the gift of the new gate! o o o Shades of our grandsires who wore the gray! A county youngster—well up in high school—pulled a boner the other day that sent our grandfathers whirling in their graves. Quoth the youngster: “Lcfbk at that car. Must be some British official in dt; it has the British flag oa it.” In all your innocence and ignorance, youngster, please be hereby informed: there is a vast difference in the British flag and the Confederate battle flag! To begin with, the British flag would not be flying from a car. (And remind me sometime to concoct a vitriolic flow of language to express my opinion of people who take our Stars and Stripes and cheaply use it on automobiles.) The reason you see the Confederate battle flag on cars is because the University of Virginia Cavaliers carry the flag as their symbol of fighting southern spirit, especially when they cro^s the Mason-Dixon line. They enjoy carrying it to Pennsylvania, and one of these days, youngster, if you get to perusing a little history of yollr grandsires, you’ll learn why. -yfPrinter John Dunlap Found Immortality In One Line of Type (Every school child knows that Thomas Jefferson wrote the declaration of Independence, and many konw that John Hancock's signature was first at the bottom of it.

The debates in the Congress sitting in Philadelphia were over. Independence had been resolved. A statement proclaiming the de- • cision had been adopted that day, 175 years ago Wednesday. The next step was to have the news printed, and Congress sitting as a committee of the whole: “Ordered That the declaration be authenticated & printed. That the committee appointed to prepare the declaration superintend & correct the press. That copies of the declaration be sent to the several assemblies, conventions and committees or councils of safety and to the several com-, manding officers of the continental troops that it be proclaimed in each of the united states and at the head of the army.” The committee included Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Roger Sherman, and Robert R. Livingston. John Hancock authenticated the copy with his signature. Charles Thomson attested it, but who, if any, among the Committee of Five took the authenticated copy to Dunlap’s print shop? It is not known. One would like to accept the> picture offered by Julian Boyd, editor of “The Papers of Thomas Jefferson”: “It may be that Jefferson aa chairman of the Committee took the authenticated copy to John Dunlap—perhaps, it is pleasant to suppose, accompanied by (Franklin) the greatest of all colonial printers—and watched over its composition and proofs during the night of July 4.

Like many a printer of the day, he was also a newspaper publisher. He had established the Pennsylvania Packeft in 1771. Eventually, in January, 1791, it evolved into the first American daily newspaper. Years later, John Dunlap was rescribed as a man of stocky, athletic build, who had been pariellyblind from youth and wore glasses. He had purchased his - printing business from his uncle, William Dunlap, a cousin of Franklin’s by marriage. The printed Declaration of Independence that came from John Dunlap's shop on July 5 was a single sheet, at least one copy of which i« 18% by 15 inches, mar-* gins Included. Distribution began immediately. That day, Hancock began sending out copies with covering letters — to the Committee of Safety of Pennsylvania, to the convention in New Jersey. John Adams sent a copy to a friend that day; Gerry sent a copy to each of two friends. To the States to the north, to the States to he south went worthy John Dunlap’s print job. In Philadelphia, the Declaration was read July >8 at the State House. In New Ydrk the next' day, the brigades under General Washington’s command1 were drawn up in hollow squares on theid parades at 6 p.m. and independence was proclaimed. The equestrian statue of George III was pulled down that night by the Sons of Freedom, and the next day the debtors were let out of jail in pursuance of the Declaration of Independence. In Williamsburg, independence was “solemnly proclaimed” on the afternoon of June 25 “at the Capitol, the Courthouse, and the Palace, amidst the acclamations of ithe people, accompanied by firing of cannon & musketry, the several regiments of continental troops having been paraded on that solemnity,” In Princeton,_the university’s Nassau Hall “was grandly illluminated, and Independency proclaimed under a triple volley of musketry.” Sometimes it was proclaimed not before a public building bub before a tavern—which may have accounted for the' 13 toasts that were imbibed at one ceremony, a toast to each of the 13 States. It was exciting news, though not always greeted as enthusiastically as men later thought they remembered. In some communities there were still Tories of influence. Exciting though it was, the news spread slowly. That was a day before telegraph and telephone. Papers first had to get the news and most of them waited until their regular publication days to report it. Even in Philadelphia, it was not until July 6 that the tri-weekly Pennsylvania Evening Post reported the news. It was July 8 when Dunlap’s Pennsylvania Jacket, a weekly, carried the story. Dunlap thus was scooped on a story in which he had had a hand. Dunlap’s Maryland .Gazette in Baltimore carried the news on July 3; two days later it was reported in the "^Maryland Gazette in Annapolis. It was July 19 when the first report, an extract, appeared in the Virgnia Gazette at Williamsburg. John Dunlap was a staunch patriot.

Printer Friendly Sons of St. Patrick who subscribed 103,500 pounds “ in order to support the credit of a bank to be established for furnishing a supply of provisions for the armies of the, United States.” He served, too, as a member of Philadelphia’s First City Troop, and, indicative of his high standing in the community, he >was later elected captain. In 1709, he said in a letter: “With pleasure I toll you, that when the laws and Government of this happy country require defense, the First Troop of Philadelphia Cavalry want but one hour's notice to march.” He was an enterprising man, and even tried his hand at publishing a German language newspaper. Nor were his interests limited to Pennsylvania. He had newspaper partnerships in Baltimore, in Charlottesville, and in Richmond at various times. When he died in Philadelphia in 1812, he had acquired a substantial fortune. It was due only indirectly to the printing business, however. The Government had given him some city lots in payment'for printing, and they had increased in value. One city block in downtown Philadelphia he had sold in 1809 for more than $100,000. But of all John Dunlap’s distinctions, none is equal to that one small line of print at the bottom of the Declaration of Independence. 4 Of that first printing, 14 copies are known to exist today. Three are at the Library of Congress. One there is a fragment of about three fourths of the original; it is in the Washington papers and is presumably the one read to the troops when he was facing the British in New York. Another there is pasted into the manuscript journal of the Congress at the appropriate place, saving the labor of writing out the Declaration in longhand. The third copy is in the collection of Consinental Congress broadsides. _ In addition to the 15 copies on paper, there is one copy of a printing on vellum by Dunlap. It is in the Library pf the American Philosophical Society. There are 17 other known variants or editions by, various hands, tc^&ling in all 58 copies.

Then I realized our printer was gone. There wasn’t any singing or horn playing while the press was running oila job; no wise craoks were flying; and not a soul to help me Bpell. What a life its going to be without you around, but our loss is Uncle Sam’s gain.» Now for a little news which ia “sorta” scarce this week, but always seems to pop up around Wednesday, when we have really given up. It seems Lee Thornton is so busy these days he has to work all week, he even had to make hay yesterday. Mr. Watts has painted the barber shop a very lovely green, so restful for the men after a hard day’s work. Haven’t heard what color the beauty parlor will be. The Geest lot on the corner is really going to be a playground, swings, slides, e^g., have been ordered, and they have started on the tennis court, so it really is in full swing. A fireplace has been built right next to the fire house, its a changed town, even the short while you have been gone. I was told this morning by Mrs. D. D. Miller that the Haakers will move very shortly into the community. As you know concerts will be held here the 12th, 19th, and 26th of August. T. C. Lea is treasurer of the Blue Ridge Music Festival. The first concert was held Sunday, June 24, it was attended by a very few as no one knew anything about it( it. was just to try out the grand piano) but I understand the music was the next thing to heaven, and enjoyed by all who had the privilege of hearing Mr. Haaker play. Bobbie Massie is now a printer’s devil, and seems to be getting along just nne, nut ne can t spell either so I guess the poor old “Snooze” will just get along like it always has, with Bruce and the American Dollar Dictionary. We have been meeting the mails every day, knowing we would get a card or letter from you, but I guess it iwas lost in the mail. There was a terrible storm in Culpeper the other day (believe it was Thursday) Mrs. Reid, Mrs. Pullen, Mrs. Prank Jones and Rev. and Mrs. Sliger were having lunch at a Missionary meeting in the county when the storm started. I was told they picked up lunch and all and such running has never been seen in Culpeper or sur-< rounding counties—can’t say I blame them. Lucy Catherine is in Front Roy. al today, and I am beating my brains (now don’t say it) out on the church page, the first of the month sure does roll around fast. Guess most of the folks will be - going to Culpeper Horse Show on July 4 and 5, I always look forT®ard of pleasure, as you see people you haven't seen since the last show. Guess I better get to (work. Do not work too hard, and “Don’t” forget us at “Rapp’h Snooze”, If you should run across Allen Johnson in your travels, tell him “hi” for all of us back home. So long for now Printer’* Devil, apd I just know no one will realize who I am writing too- You said your name could net be used in a paper. Well t did not use it onee. Tour Partner in Misspelling Emily B. Miller. P.S.—All the office force said to tell you hello for them. o e e Member of the Belmont bunch called in, said he didn’t see whafi it erne of any body what Sorry, no offense meant, “SfOITT” ask any more $«4 question in the future.

The church structure was built in 1875 by Corbin Proctor as a branch of the Mt. Salem Baptist Church. The building committee was composed of the following: Dr. A. W. Reed, James A. Templeton, James F. Kemper, B. F. Miller and F. L. Slaughter. The constitution of the church took place on January 10, 1882, under the leadership of James F. Kemper. The first regular pastor was the Rev. L. R. Steele, who accepted the call July 25, 1882 and served until April 4, 1894. Other pastors to serve the congregation were A. J. Fristoe, Hugh Goodwin, S; W. Cole, M. F. Sanford, supply pastor; J. F. Kemper, W. J. Reynolds, N. F. McFadden, John A. St. Clair, Louis A. Broughman and the present pastor M. E. Sliger. The church is affiliated with the Shiloh Association and the Baptist General Association of Virginia and the Southern Baptist Convention. The Shiloh Association met with the church September 1, 1896 and again September 1-3, 1926 and during August 29-30,1934. The present jnembership 146 and the board of deacons is composed of W. C. Campbell, chairman; E. M. Jones, G. L. Updike, A. J. Slaughter, R. V. Snead, and B. R. Cox, Several improvements were made to the building in 1911 and the Willing Workers Sunday School class built a house and installed gas lignts. .Later m I'dzl two Sunday school rooms were added to each side of the building. Again in 1939 electric fixtures, drapes and a new carpet were purchased to beautify the sanctuary. In 1949 a central heating plant was installed. The Sunday School is the largest organization of the church with a membership of 140. Mr. John A. Keyser served as superintendent most faithfully for forty years. His nephew, R. V. Snead is now serving as his successor. The school is in need of additional rooms to adequately serve the scholars. It is the plan of the congregation to build four new rooms as soon as economic conditions permit. Other organizations are Woman’s Missionary Society, Business Women’s Circle, Boy Scouts, Church Choir, and Girl’s Auxiliary and the Sunbeam Band. The Constitution and By-Laws were adopted January 29, 1951 setting up standing committees of Finance, Maintenance, Visiting and Enlistment, Nominations and Resolutions, Communion, Flower, Publicity and Program Planning Committee. A rotating system for election of deacons and church officers was included. In effect as of this year, a unified budget which in. eludes all the activities of the church and provides a goal of achievement for a given year. EPISCOPAL TRINITY EPISCOPAL (Washington) Dr. W. <3.

New Hope For Curbing Wars Sine* 1800, wart have reached a peak about every 22 yean. Hope for curbing wars is to be found in a report issued by the Foundation for the Study of Cycles, at Riverside, Conn. Since 1800, there has been a 22-year cycle in the number of international battles. a3 shown in this simplified chart, smoothed out to omit minor ups and downs. There is a tendency for about 11 years of relative peace, followed by If years of relative conflict. Scientists are trying to learn the causes behind these war and peace cycles, with the idea that, once we know more about the causes, we can do a great deal more about controlling them. One clue may be found in the fact that huge spots form on the sun at intervals of about 11 years. These spots alternate in a positive and negative character. At the time of a crest in the positive 11-year period, people seem to be more optimistic and able to work out their problems in a more statesmanlike manner. At the opposite or negative end of the cycle they appear more excitable and quick to anger, and wars develop in such an atmosphere. A deeper knowledge of the regular patterns of international wars in the past should help guide us in making greater efforts to avoid conflict when tension is at a high pitch. By being more cautious, selfrestrained, and statesmanlike m periods of greatest danger we can lessen the chances of war. _ fj The Foundation warns, however, that we should keep our defenses adequate so that we will be prepared against surprise attacks by aggressors. In the meantime it is hoped that scientific study will result in finding basic answers to the problem of how to curb wars. C. ROY JONES JEWELER Culpeper, Va.
