L\bf*TT nd-t» WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 2, 1951 150 Attend Pre-Concert At Music Center William Hsfhker’s piano recital Sunday marked the opening of Blue Ridge Music Center’s first summer season, with a group of about lot) present for the preconcert, two weeks ahead of the regularly scheduled three concerts for August 12, 19, and 26. The pre-view tft AvomMills was received enthusiastically, when, following the piano recital, the audienqe enjoyed an inspection tour of the five-storied old mill, and marveled at how much had been done in the restoration project, and with what excellent taste the old had been retained with the new usefulness. Mr. Haaker has stated his pleasure at the attendance at the Sunday recital and was pleased also at the comments from those present. The audience consisted of about 150, with more from Culpeper than any one locality, though there were people in the audience from Fredericksburg, Washington, D.C., Maryland, Warrenton and Front Royal. About 50 of thef audience were Rappahannock people. To date there are about 30 enrolled in the choir classes, to meet Tuesday- evenings during the summer music camp. Most of the students enrolled are In church choirs throughout the county and they are taking the "learning to read” class rather than the advanced section. Ten pupils have enrolled in instrument instruction, including those in piano classes. Larger classes are expected for the third iweek of the camp, according to Mrs. Haaker. A second piano recital will be given August 15, at 8 p.m. at Avon Mills by Mr. Haaker. This recital will not- be included as a free concert for members, but will be at $1 admission. The first. of the three concerts is scheduled for Sunday afternoon, August 12, when, as Charles Wood announced at the recital Snnday, an orchestra of 60 pieces will be present. A meeting of chairmen was held following the rdcital Sunday, and additional planning committee meetings were held Tuesday ni^ht and last night, but full reports on these meetings have not been released. More information will be available as the summer camp opens and students begin work. ——X Joseph W.

Huffman of Dominion Gas & Supply Company, local “Pyrofax” gaa distributor, said recently. Basing his estimate on figures released by the LP-gas information service, Chicago, Mr. Huffman pointed out that consumption of the fuel in the nation’s homes has sky-rocketed 1600 per cent v ■« since t040. »,oo£ Most of the more than 7,1500,i families burning LP-gas use it for cooking and a high percentage for water beating, home heating and refrigeration as well. Two new applications are rapidly coming to the fore. These are clothes drying, which eliminates the tiresome chore of haMMtOto the wash to dry, and incineration, which rules out the messiness of waste and garbage disposal. Laterally scores of fanfi uses have been developed for LP-gas, according to Mr. Huffman. It now pumps water for irrigation and livestock, dries hay and cures tobaccp, sterilises dairy equipment ripens fruit, and provides dependable heat for poultry brooders' and incubators and for pig brooders.

Clanagan Killed In Saturday Shooting Morton Clanagan, Negro, died Saturday night about 10:30, from a shot through the chest. Early Sunday morning, Otha Gatewood, Negro, called Sheriff J. W. Critzer and told him to come to the home of Herman Patterson, near Pine Knot Inn, where Fatewood gave himself up to the Sheriff, stating that he had done the shooting. Gatewood, now in the county jail, has had nothing to say con-* cerning the Shooting. Reportedly never given much to talking, Gatewood has remained quiet since being brought to jail. The shooting took place Saturday night, when Clanagan waa seated on the back seat of a car,, parked near Pine Knot Inn. He was sitting between two Negro girls, one his sister, when, so reports go, Otha Gatewood came to the car, opened the door, and fired a shot. The bullet entered Chanagan's chest, high on /the right side and lodged in the sixth rib on the left side of the chest. It was stated that Clanagan got out of the car and walked about 30 feet before he dropped. He was dead by the time the sheriff and doctor arrived. Otha Gatewood left the scene Saturday night, but gave himself up Sunday morning. The hearing will be this morning at 10 o’clock. Otha Gatewood worked for Mr. Wire at “The Shade” and Morton Clanagan worked for Downing Wood. Both of the men had reputations as good, (reliable, quiet workmen, and were considered orderly citizens. It is supposed that the altercation was caused by jealousy over a mutual girl friend. The shooting did not occur on the property of the Pine Knot Inn but on a side road leading from Pine Knot to the home of Brown Patterson. -*County Family Farm Review Organized A meeting of Rappahannock County Agricultural Mobilization Committee was held in the PM A office at Washington recently, according to .Earl R.

Bowman, PMA field man; and Richard Beck, vocational Agriculture instructor. The purpose of this meeting was to discuss and formulate plans for conducting a county survey known as the Family Farm Policy Review. This survey is to be a part of state and nation-wide canvass to try and determine how well the U. S. Department of Agriculture programs are meeting the needs of family farms. According to the plan, it is intended to give everyone who is seriously^ interested in agriculture an opportunity to look at all the farm programs and activities and express their thoughts about them. More details about the plan to ba followed in Rappahannock will appear in the paper next week. -W Fire Destroys Bam About 11:30 Tuesday morning the fire siren called the firemen of Washington to a fire pX Flint Hill where the bam on the R. B. Bust place was found to be in a light biases Charlie Jenkins had the fire engine ready to go by the time the firemen arrived, and five fireihen rode the trade.

Rappahannock News Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia Dial Washington 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Entered as second-class m»h Better at the post office at Washington, Virginia. Subscription:-$2.00 a year ^Thanks—and Apologies Mrs. D. D. Miller has expressed thanks to Capt. William Weiner of Flint Hill and to Mrs. Joe Yowell of Peola Mills for their contributions to the Red Cross Disaster Flood Relief for the victims in the great mid-west floods of the past few weeks. Mrs. Miller asked that thanks be expressed to the newspaper, also, for publishing the idea, but the paper is offering an apology for having wdWed it so poorly that only two people in the county could figure out that it meant help was needed ! The telegram-appeal, sent to Mrs. Mjller, as local chairman, said that the emergency would call for $5,000,000 extra funds for the Red Cross to help in the disaster area, and that Rappahannock's share was $75. This money ia needed now; the people in the flood area are homeless. The appeal goes out again, immediately: contributions are needed noiw to help in the flood disaster area. Mail your gift to Mrs. D. D. Miller, Washington, Va., so the money can be sent quickly to help those people—not in some far-away land, but right here at home, in our own country. -- Why the Candidate? . . A question—with no answer, so far—is: Why does Mortimer Marshall declare himself a candidate for election to the House of Representatives from Rappahannock and Culpeper?

When it was realized that the present representative holds positions of seniority on committees, which are of interest to both counties, and these position would be lost with a change of candidates, it was agreed to by-pass the rotation system of election in the two counties, 'and retain the present Representative to our own best interests. The incumbent has been declared the unopposed Democratic nominee in a county which has been solidly Democratic for longer than most of us can remember. With the above information: why has Mortimer Marshall filed candidacy? Is he trying to show that a Negro has a right to run for office? Everyone knows that. Voters must be 21 years of age, and even a 12- to 14-year-old child, who has been taught his Constitution, will be able to tell you that anyone can be a candidate—you, I, or the next-door neighbor—everyone has the right to ran for public office. Is he trying to seek cheap publicity? Let’s hope not, for it does not become our finer sensibilities that our representation in the House of Delegates is a thing to be used as a source of obtaining one’s name in the paper and having one’s name thrown about in a cheap manner. The House of Delegates is a dignified body of gentlemen; for years of history, in which we Virginians take pride, our state governing body has been a good one. No true* Virginian, with any spark of self-esteem left, will appreciate the use of our Senate or our House of Delegates as a party toward cheap notoriety or publicity. In fact, the thought is offensive. The answer to the question— why?— is unknown in these quarters. ---rfENTERTAIN FOR DINNER Mr. and Mrs. J. S.

If what you did yesterday still seems pretty important, you haven’t accomplished much today, o o o One of these days I’m going to try to tell just one tale and not have someone immediately top it! Recently, the paper quoted some nice “back-fence gossip,” or some of those “they say” stories, and stated that wages of $2 an hour were being paid in a neighboring county. I was so sure no one could tell one bigger, that I considered asking Mr. Campbell to lend me his Fisherman’s Liar’s License to hang on the wall of the office. No such god luck! Along comes a lady and tells me that a friend of hers in New Jersey says that the maid now demands $1 an hour for regular housework, and has to be paid extra if she is to do hard work like scrubbing and windowwashing ! I give up! Every time I think I’ve collected the wildest, most impossible tale yet heard somebody has to tell one bigger! o o o With the concert series breaking forth in the county, all of us are becoming very music-conscious. I heard a youngster the other day describing a choir she had heard sing. “They sang with much feeling,’’ quoth the youngster, “and the organist played with feeling. (Long pause.) The organist was feeling for the notes, and the choir was feeling for the notes; the only trouble was they weren’t feeling in the same direction.” • •• O “Whenever I go to a new town or city,” said one of the local citizens the other day, “I always look in the telephone directory to see if there is anyone with my name living there.” “Has it ever found you any new cousins?” was the query. “Well, no, not exactly. I found one, once, though, with my name. His name was emblazoned across the front of a large building, so I thought he must be quite prosperous, and it might <fo some good to look him up. I started. The elevator boy kept talking about that about-to-be-newly-found relative of mine, and I noticed he used the past tense. ‘He was a fine man’, etc., was about the jist of the conversation, with a funereal tone. “Is he dead?” was the question.

I haven’t looked up any new cousins since.” o o o The use of the past tense and the funereal tone accompanying brings to mind a story from South Carolina. The colored caretaker was showing visitors about the fine, old mansioto. He kept referring to the beautiful daughter of the family: she was so lovely and gracious, she was so kind, she was this and she was that. Finally, one of the visitors asked, timidly, "Was there an accident?” “No, ma’am,” came the old man’s reply, “she married a lyadkee.” i THIS & THAT by easily b. miller > RECORDS OF FORMER DAYS IN RAPPAHANNOCK • March 4, 1932 Word was received here Thursday morning of the death of Kirke Austin at his home in Birmingham.

WARRENTON, VIRGINIA New Washing Methods Easier Than Old rf Colonial days, according to pictures left by our ancestors, one way of getting clothes clean was by stamping .out the dirt.- This may have been good, clean fun on a hot day. but today’s homemakers probably prefer to use a modern, efficient washing machine. The greatest boon to keeping the family wash clean, since the mechanical washer became a fixture in most American homes, was the introduction of effective detergents. The latest of these. Just being Introduced In this area. Is a product called Cheer, which was especially designed to do the toughest washing Jobs and make the clothes come out fresh and clean, even in the hardest wafer. Based on a new patented formula, the product was developed after 19 years of. painstaking research in Procter ft Gamble's laboratories. It has already been extensively tested under practical washing conditions in millions of homes. According to homemakers who have nsed Cheer, they have found it particularly effective in helping to get out the greasy, ground-in dirt which has previously meant extra work RETURNS FRpM HOSPITAL Mrs. George Wood returned to her home Monday following a major operation at University hospital.

Recent amendments to the regulations, it was explained, authorised the transfer of jurisdiction in occupational appeal cases—including agriculture—at the request of registrant or employer. Formerly the registrant's ‘‘home” appeal board had sole jurisdiction in occupational cases. The amendtments affect only the cases in which occupational deferment is claimed, including agriculture. The amendments are quoted in the instructions sent to local’ boards as follows: “1626.11 How Appeal to Appeal Board is Taken, (a) Any person entitled to do so may appeal to the appeal board by filing with the local board a written notice of appeal. Such notice need not be in any particular form but must state the name of the registrant and the name and identity of the person appealing so as to show the right of appealThe language of any such notice shall be liberally construed in favor of the person filing the notice so as to permit the appeal. “(b) Whenever an appeal to the appeal board involves a claim for the occupational deferment of a registrant whose principal place) of employment is located outside the appeal board area in which the local board having jurisdiction over the registrant is located and is located in thearea of another appeal board, the person appealing may, at the time he files the notice of appeal, file with the The busy housewife’s Best Friend is ‘MONTICELLO’ DAIRY Ice Cream SAVES TIME Variety of Flavors Nutritious AND JEveiybody Likes It!

Settle, her daughter, Miss Alma Settle, later Mrs. Clarence Bragg, John Albert Compton, Stephen Hicks, and his daughter, Miss! , Eugenia Hicks. The lot on which the Church was to be erected was donated by Baldwin Bradford Baggarly. It was through solicitation of contributions botilflrithin and without the Town, County and State a very large part of the money to erect the Church was procured. Such amount was supplemented with additional foods provided through the efforts of a “Sewing Society”, organized by the ladies of the Church and including ladies of other denominations. This Society was engaged in a profitable effort in 'the making and sale of ladies wear and household requirements. These same ladies had a subsidiary organization known as the “Dinner Committee”, the members of which rotated in the serving of meals to the Judges, Lawyers, Jurymen and others while in attendance of’both, th,e then monthly County Court and the Circuit Court when in session. The ladies of this Committee during the autumn and winter months, had weekly “Oyster Suppers”, which proved to be another source of revenue. Through solicited subscriptions, gifts and 1?he funds acquired by the ladies organizations, some four to five thousand dollars became available for the construction of the building. The Corner Stone of the Church was laid by Washington Lodge No. 78, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, in the Northeast corner of the foundation, as required by Masonic tradition. The inscription upon the stone records the month, day and year as follows: \ “M. E. CHURCH SOUTH, SEPTEMBER 5, 1889”. / Tim building was erected by John A. cannon, of Manassas, Virginia, a wen known and experienced contractor and builder. It was completed during the year 1890» as provided by-the contract.- - Special donations to the Church during construction included the following: The walnut Chancel Rail, a gift of Warrenton Methodist Church; the Bible Stand or Pulpit, a gift of Mrs. Emma Moore Beggarly; the Weather Vane on the spire, an infallible weather prognosticator, thought to be a gift of the contractor and builder, Mr. Cannon; the marble Comer Stone, the name of the giver no record; the abstract of title and the deed of gift to the lot, was prepared by William B. Settle, an attorney, without compensation; more recently, the walnut pews, a gift of Washington Presbyterian Church. The Dedication Sermon was by Reverend J. R. Griffith, well loved and distinguished Methodist minister, who served the spiall membership during those years the building of a House of Worship was contemplated. It was some years later to the Dedication, before the Church was financially able to secure all its requirements. The organ was purchased, and the Bell, which was hung in the Belfrey Saturday, March 30, 18/95. The following is the list of Ministers that have served the Church since the building was erected: Charles H. McGee, M. A. Davidson, W. A. S. Conrad, Richard Ferguson, R. T. Clarke, H. J. Brown, T.
