Despite tain at the beginning, U-i the main portion of the concert. : a was rain-free, and the audience was most enthusiastic. William Haaker gave a piano concert last evening at Avon pnily His delighted audience demanded, and got, three encores. ---The criticism of parking facilities, following the first concert, has been met, and it is understood that other parking accommodations will he arranged for this Sunday. .. V A Student concert will be featured next Wednesday night, August 22, When the choral group will wiU present a program. . M/Sgt. Glenn Darwin, distinguished American baritone, belongs to the relatively small group ef singers equally at home on the opera stage, in the concert hall, in the radio studio, or the Broadway stage. Hia is a striking com, bination of voice and musicianf ship—of personality and acting ability. -vA native of Kansas City, Missouri, - his musical career zSfigdK. ; r from that of a boy soprano 4n “Hansel and Gretel” to the baritone lq*d in Damrosch’s “The Man Without a Country” with the Metropolitan Opera Company, a role h- * he learned upon two days notice —from “The Magic Flute” in » which he-appeared as a student at the Juilliard School of Music, to - Tschaikowsky’s “Pique Dame” which he sang with the New Opera Company. His recordings as a boy soprano . made by the Victor Recording( Company, are being used today as ——— a model in various music schools. The exact time at which he started singing cannot be easily determin. «d, but it was at quite an early ' . age. In fact, he caused his mother considerable dismay on a number , - of occasions, when, at the age of three he would burst into song on a crowded bus. After repeatedly being the cynosure of all attention by her fellow passengers, she finally pleaded in desperation, “Son, why do you do this to me?” To -■C which her three year old replied ... “I can’t help it, Mama.

The clouds gathered and the rain came down, but it dampened not the enthusiasm of the large audience as H sat partially protected from the rain drops by umbrellas and coats. The exquisite rendition of Shubert’s Unfinished Symphony by the orchestra under the leadership of William Haaker, a truly great musician, proved our Sta^e Orchestra one of our great orchestras. The dual role of soloist and: leader in Hungarian Fantasie by Franz Liszt, was a feat that proved Mr. Haaker entirely worthy of his famous music-master Jose ilturbi. .. , - In honor of the visiting musicians, the ladies of the Blue (Ridge Music Festival Association, gave a delicious buffet luncheon before the concert, at ‘'Harris Hollow FarmV home of Mrs. Elizabeth DeBergh. „ . - ‘ The old mill is an ideal setting for such as this, with the forest) trees at its back and forming an amphitheatre for the audience on .the banks of a mountain stream. We are told that in the long ago Lord Howard’s manor house - stood where now stands “Avon Hall’’, borne of the Baggarlys and the mill was then called Avon Mills. - The name had its origin from Lord.Howard’s English home, the Manor of Avondale, on thei Avon. Of all the Old Dominion’s coun-t ties, beautiful Rappahannock is most highly favored in that it has been chosen as the summer home of this music colony. Historically, Massachusetts is our sister state, while our traditions are the most charming of all, but musically we are as yet young. So, let each and every one of us work as we can to make this beautiful thing that has come to its a glorious success that will send our fame afar. w —t/—~-.;v 'Franklin Hough, Jr., To Preach On August 26 ' • Franklin Hough, Jr., business manager of Virginia Baptist Hospital, Lynchburg, will be the guest minister of two churches in the county August* 26.

With H. S. Barksdale, W. H. Lyne, J. S. Lynch, Tom Jeffries, Caleb Fennock, L. B. Henretty, ' and Mr. White of the F. H.A., the local farmers tried to find out the. purpose of this survey. < The first question arose when* it was found that a time limit of— 45 days (15 of them already) gone) was set on making the re-., port. The book sent to the local agricultural men contained 121 pages of instructions and must be placed before all the farmers in the county within the stated time. Upon investigating this 121page book 6f instruction—which was jokingly referred to as the “sears-arbuckle catalog" before the meeting was over—the local farmers wanted answers to many questions before they went any farther. “What will these recommendation* coat?" was a favorite. — “Where did this whole pro-/ gram of asking the “grass roots" for their opinions start?" was an-i other. “How much more taxes frill this mean?” was still another. When the answer to not a single question was forth-coming, one farmer present stated in disg35t: “How many more votes for Truman will this furnish in 1952?" The result of the meeting ended in many opinions with a single under-lying thought: “This whola affair smacks of socialism, and we don’t like what little we know) about it.” The original book of instruct tions, which came from Washington —exactly where from seems vague—calls for a county-wide meeting first, to acquaint the whole . citizenry with the proposition. The farmers present Tuesday night have sent in a list of ques- . tions which they want answered by the time of 'that countywide meeting, set for Friday night, August 24, at ithe Courthouse. The purpose of this county-wide meeting is to try to ferret out what’s behind this business. If it’s fair, then the local farmer^ can support it; if it’s foul, Rappahannock will get its chance to "Complain—long and loud! Toward the end of the meeting one of the county farmers spoke up thus: “America has become great by being a free and independent people, and a question can arise in our minds that unless men do some scratching for them-, selves, America may be lost in socialism and its freedom and greatrfess lost at the same time." „ More definite plans for the county-wide meeting will be announced in time for everyone in the county to know about the meeting otr- '-_ Johnson-—Owen Miss Elizabeth M.

Are people working in orchards, others on the farm. We have no movie, to watch the latest show; We just sit and rock, and watch’ our children grow. Our ladies don’t attend council meets, nor talk on radio; Church, choir, and bridge parties * are the limits to our go. We have no mayor to control our dogs and pets; Game Warden Brown must try to ease these threats. As for keeping the town clean and our grass freshly cut, Too much sweeping and mowing will put you in a rut.

We Fear What We Don't Know The farmers have every right to ery “socialism” and “another Brannaa plan” in expressing thein fears of this new Family Farm Review about to be launched. When the recommendations called for expansions, the farmers asked: What will it cost? We’ve got the bill to pay. And no one aeems to know.-^-— When a group of farmers get . together to begin a survey that states it is to be used for the farmers’ benefit, they are going to do some straight, level-headed thinking. When they are told all about Federal Government footing the bills, they know that they are the federal government and the taxes come from their own pockets. The group of farmers Tuesday night at the Courthouse counldn’t get any answers to what they thought were very sensible questions. * V - No one knew. By whom will these facts be used? No one knew. What will be the cost—-or the added tax burden—if these recommendations are accepted? No one knew. It was not what was known thatf made th*e farmers shy off; it was what no one knew. v A farmer has to do enough stabbing around in the dark ordi-narily. Whenever he can, he like* to know as many answers as possible before he starts to work Buying a pig in a poke can have serious repercussions, and the •farmer wants„to know more about) this government-dictated family ... farm review before he takes any part in it, "■’“’““■WW'fekriSasrhtiy’ftd' a Wdif - sheep’s clothing. The facts and recommendations collected in th« county may not look as we meant them to look by the time they reach Congress. We have visions of another Brannan plan reachhng the floor of Congress with the advocator saying: "See what we went to the ‘grass roots* and found out. This and thus-and-so is what the fanners in Rappahannock want.” ' Before we give ^the'nod of local approval, we want to know more about'it. . -wiFestivai News Sounds ; • Encouraging William Haaker and his commit* tea of helpers have every reason to rejoice at the favorable publicity received op. the first concert at Avon Mills Sunday afternoon, despite rain. 1#u, Paul Hume, critic for The Washington Post, gave an interesting story-angle treatment in reporting of the first concert. His comments were more in the line of encouragement rather than criticism, giving the feeling to the reader that he is bolding off his opinions to give the budding music colony a chance to get started. Said Hume, "An evaluation of the whole afternoon would show plenty of possibilities on the credit side.” —Mr. Hume gave the make-up of the orchestra by saying it was recruited from the National and Vir. ginia symphonies; he stated that Haaker doubled in both capacities of pianist and conductor; and he said that undoubtedly more than 500 would have been on hand for the first concert if it had not been for the rain. Mr. Hume made no comment on the quality of the music produced, and expressed no opinion of the pianist-conductor. Edwin D. Neff, reporting for the Times-Herald, treated the story of the concert for its news, value and interesting reading. He_„ gave the story of the conductor, so absorbed in his work that ha forgot about getting dressed up for the appointed hour, and how lhis wife had to race home just before the scheduled hour and grab up his dress clothes, to deliver them at Avon Mills in time for the conductor to get himself dressed for the concert. The Times - Herald reporter made his story thoroughly readable by telling of the town, the beautiful location for the concerts, the old mill, Mr. Haaker’s background as a pupil of Iturbi and his starting an outdoor festival at Eureka Springs, Arkansas. The reporter, whose wife is a daughter of a Culpeper farmer, evidently;' felt an interest in the future of this Virginia musical infant and did his best to see that it nice #a nice story. All the publicity has been most favorable, and the music festival has every reason to think that the public, in general, is on its side, Touting vigorously to give this> embryonic summer music workshop a more-than-even break to get started. “A word to the wise was given by Paul Hume when he said that something must be done about the traffic problem and parking facilities. No doubt, planning is afoot already. When one sees the» old mill and surrounding grounds, and realizes what has been done,it is easy to see that what is left to be done is a small matter. n -- A Problem Escaped— Or Avoided With all this to-do over athletics in colleges—from West Point to William and Mary—it is time that we in Rappahannock take *‘fn'e off to be thankful that, so far, 'W^Kave""escapedrrfEe ’evIFor** -over-emphasis- on athletics in our high school. Our school is still in the hands of a group of conscientious educators who are interested in the physical and mental growth of the youngsters in the county. We read of the evils in West Point with a sense of shock and shame. The great Academy had always stood for what was reported to be the pick of the nation, the finest of American boys were to be recommended to be educated at the taxpayer's expense. We had been taught to look to West Point for the military leaders of our country, to protect us in time of danger of war and threat of war. ■^samrsaraa?»is?5sgrible situation” and “disgusting” comments, the faces of V.%L graduates are conspicuously dead ■pan.) y ' ^ An editorial in The Loudoufi News states that the discovery of the dishonest examination work by cadets of West-Point may be * blessing in disquise, for it may terminate a situation that might have become progressively worse. An investigation now may eradicate the athletics contests between West Point and Annapolis and may help to erase the feeling that has existed between members of the two branches of the armed services. The editorial writer seems to think that the result pf the affair may be one of unifying the armed services, and thus will be a blessing to the nation. Within the county, it is none of our business how the affair is settled, though, of course, each one of us is entitled to our opinion as to whether or not the expulsion of the cadets was justifiable. It is our business, here at home, to profit by the mistakes of others. If West Point, and other large educational institutions, can reach the place where athletics can become all-absorbing to the detriment of a scholar’s learning, then it is time for us in small communities to guard against repeating their mistakes. We can realize the importance of a “sound* mind in a sound body," but we ■hall watch against “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," and all play and no work makes Jack a stupidly-dull boy. --- . . ..■■*■■■■ 'The Time Ha* Come,* the Walras said , . , The trouble with most of us is having too much xmonth left over at the end of the money. o o o Soviet authorities in Vienna, so we are told, have confiscated the Donaudampchiffacrtgesselschraft. - We are curious to know whether they’ll eat it, wear it, or climb into it and drive away. ;*v;;/-; ' O O O • vv.=/,f\ A fellow in Culpeper wants to couple his advertising up with the Blue Ridge Music Festival.

Problems By DONALD M. MAYNARD Family Tension My family was never very demonstrative. The members of my husband?s family are very talkative, affectionate, and pay much attention to birthdays and any kind of “special” occasion. It is difficult for me to adjust my thinking to such a changed pattern of living. In ' fact, there has been some tension because my husband is determined that our small children sha’l have the same ^ background that he had and 1 feel unable to **rise to the occasion” every time. Is this incompatibility a danger to our happiness? That can I do about it? The rosy fact that you are facing this problem (rankly , and honestly is a good indication that you and your husband trill be able to make the adjustments necessary for a happy family life. You trill need to guard against putting a damper on his demonstrativeness by appearing disgusted or indifferent. You will need so to discipline yourself** that most of the time you can reciprt^ cate his affection and his enthusiasm Dr. Maynard's booklet, Your Child Today, discusses unhappy parents. It's free to readers of this newspaper. Mail a postcard to Donald M. Maynard, 810 Broadway, Nashville 2, Tennessee, for a copy. :f ■ and enjoyment over special occasions. If he wants birthdays and holidays to be celebrated in a big way, enter into the spirit of tbe occasion as best you can and do your share in making the celebration a gala one. At the same«time, your husband should realize that be eau't expect you. V> rise to every occasion, and that yon tend to express your affection in less articulate and less demonatrativd ways. He must learn to accept you as you are and must guard against getting his feelings hurt because vou fail sometimes to show as much enthusiasm as he would ”*l&e ©v® something thdr ateihf * iat r< to him. t ^ In other words, this seems to be a situation that calk, for a compromise on tbe part of you both. I would remind 'you, however, that most studies of successful marriages show that families in which affection is freely demonstrated are happier than are those in which it s; Ja lake* for granted. , ....i. It’is exceedingly important, ton, that.7 your children should be assured of your understanding and love. Making a lot over special occasions is good for them, . too. Happy family experiences give them the feeling of security that is no essential for wholesome development. "‘| rim m; t*., . ^ ■*•**' 4 ’ ft - ; • - T Teen Troubles We learned recently that oat fi.vtvam ■ year-old had slipped amt several Umak with the family ear and taken a Iona drive alone from two to four o'clock m tka morning. That should am da oboat this? i tionship with the boy, whether or not he continues to slip off with the car this way, and his general emotional stability. Your first concern, of course, should be to discover why he feels the need of getting up in the middle of the night ‘to go out in the car, It may be because he is never permitted to have the car alone in the daytime. He may have hejrd other boys bragging about their doing this and the idea has appealed to him, to his desire for adventure. .On the other hand, it may be that something is troubling him and he wants to get out alone to face his difficulties. He may be disturbed about any one or several of the following: 1. His school work. 2. His social standing—he may be having difficulty with his girl friend; there may be disappointments in connection with ettra-curricular activities; or hr may be burdened by a deep sense ^^nfbnfrriority. ,3 rKhe is a thoughtful chap he may - be disturbed by aomd of the puzzling - questions of Hie. He may be trying to .figure out what life is all about and his place in it. ’ — , 4. Unfortunate physical habits that have created in him a tense'of anxiety and guilt. 5. A feeling that neither you nor his teachers appreciate and understand him. This is especially likely to be true if you have tended to “boss” him, ridicule his ideas, or accuse him of always wanting to argue. j Let me hasten to add that it is rather to be expected that your boy should I be bothered by one or more of the [above. Think back to your own adoleo'eent days. Weren’t there times when .you feh that no one understood you? Can’t you remember how you, too, liked i to get out alone in the car—or buggy— ; to meditate about life, its meaning and its tragedy! } To be sure, you didn’t du-this from Jjl? »o four in the morning, .but after I alt, the time oftfiedaybr mgfctii more' «or less incidental In fact, don’t you .even new occasionally want to get away by-yourself? w t If your youngster seems to be fairly [well adjusted emotionally and to his fellow*, therefore, I wouldn’t worry too much about what has happened. On the other hand, if you discover that he is seriously troubled by something, try to find ways, indirect ways, that you ean help him. Don't force yourself upon him or insist that he confide in you, but try to be understanding and patient. It may be that yon will want to let him’ know.that you know that k is going-out during the middle of the night. Do tMt Scold or blame him for doing so, but face frankly the fact that .there is a dferthih Mount of danger in going out •lose at that time . of the night, It hhonld net be difficult for him to understand that it is but natural for you and vour wife to worry when you find he has gone with the car. Suggest that you would appreciate his finding some outer (time for his tripe. If you are patient, Weratanding, and fair, he » likely to eeoparii win you..

SCROGGINS The beginning of the Free Pentecostal Church in Flint Hill was in 1941, the Spirit of God spoke to my wife and me to come to Rappahannock County to hold a reyival, we started in the school house at the resettlement. At this time we were living in Wilmington, Deleware, and drove 208 miles each week to hold services. God honored this work by pouring out the spirit upon the people, many precious souls were bom with God’s Kingdom, according to John 3:5. ;• jr . <v Many'received the baptism of the Holy Ghost and fire from *~ Heaven. Many have gone home to be with Jesus. Some have gone.out to preach God’s word. These people were saved^t our-—— meetings. The school house became too small. The Lord spoke __ to us to build a church. The ground was given to us by Mr. and Mrs. Emmett Grimsley. We had eleven days in which to build t the church from the day we started, to the day services were to * be held in the new church. Our first service was held on Mother’s Day 1943. The Sunday before we held our first meeting several men and I were putting the roof on the church when a terrible storm came up, the men said to me “UMcle Bob you won't have a meeting here tomorrow”, “In the name of the Lord” I said. “you stand and see the glory of God”. The rain came within 300"" yards of the church and stood as a wall, coming no closer, until *. the church was finished. After finishing, the men went inside the church and it rained for a good-half hour. We held services on our appointed day, for which we praise God, for many souls have been saved in the church we built with Gods help, and souls filled with the Holy Ghost. % The Church in three years was clear of debt. We started our tent meeting in 1947. About 143 people have been baptised in four years.- Whole families have been saved and filled with the Holy Ghost—Glory to God. God saved all that came to him, moonshiners, bootleggers, gamblers, and all manner of men and women. We are now holding out tent meeting, God blesses all, and all are welcome. - . - - Come to the tent meeting on Route 211 between Washington and Sperryville, every night at 8 p.m. except Mondays. Cur ' church is nonsectarian. All churches are invited to copae and help at these meetings. Rev. Rosile Addlsburger, of Waynesboro, Pennsylvania, will ,, be with us this week end to hold.the meetings August 17, 18, 19. EPISCOPAL TRINITY EPISCOPAL (Washington) Dr. W. G.
