HUMELS1NE IS NAMED ‘BEAUTY OF THE WEEJC’ Appearing in a feature in the Times-Herald, Washington, D.C., last week was a picture of Mrs. Carlisle Humelsine, naming her as “Beauty of the Week.” , The caption under the very lovely picture of Mrs. Humelsine read: “A good cook, knowing the way .to people’s hearts, should make an excellent diplomat’s wife. ,Mr»- Carlisle Humelsine, whose husband is deputy undersecretary of state, is both an artist? at cuisine and a delightful person in her own right. The former Miss Mary Speake, she is a native of Luray, and naturally knows how to fix up a tasty Virginia ham. Moreover, she’s an expert at concocting gumbo, a dish that demands a lot of know-how; her recipe is from New Orleans with additions from the Old Dominion. A lovely blond, Mrs. Humelsine has blue eyes and likes the vibrant contrast of scarlet or jet black in afternoon clothes. With her husband, two-year-old Barbara Anne and Mary Carlisle, aged 5%, she lives in a house part of whose charm is due to the family heirlooms with which she has furnished it.” Mrs. Humelsine is a niece of D. D. Miller. Local Boys Trained In Fire Prevention KEEP VIRGINIA GREEN forestry training has just been completed in Rappahannock County high school at Washington and Scrabble colored school, Chief Forest Warden Raymond M. Johnson stated today. Approximately 40 boys received forestry training this year. This short forestry training course consisted of forest fire prevention, forest fire suppression and forest management. Chief Johnson said that this annual fall event was given early this year due to the dry weather throughout the county. Along with the fire fighting, the boys also received general forestry training in reforestation, proper cutting practices, and timber estimating. Assisting in training of KVG crews this year was forester Caleb M. Pennock, Jr. of Warrenton. Forester Pennock handled the general forestry work. Acknowledgement of the fine cooperation given the Virginia Forest Service in this training should go to the high school principals and other authorities, stated Chief Warden Johnson. He also reminds the eitiaens of the county to remember that'due to the extreme dry weather the danger of forest fires is very great at this time. Everyone should be particularly careful when burning brash or smoking dose to woods or fields containing dry grass.

Subscription National Week ; i We are prone to poke a wee bit of innocent fun at ail these celebrations of National Thus-andSilch Week, although each one, in its way, is worthy. The general opinion arises that they are run in the ground by having so many. In fact, there are so many by now that the year’s 52 weeks aren't enough to go around. There Fire Prevention Week— and, goodness knows, we aren’t as careful about fires as we ought to be. If we were, there wouldn’t be such a tremendous loss in the* nation from forest fires, business fires, and burning of homes. There is every other kind of week imaginable—4-H Club Week, Employ the Physically Handicapped Week, National Apple Week —all worthy projects and each one rates a celebration. A week or two ago was National Newspeper Week and Freedom of the Press Week; worthy, no doubt, but, again, there are so many it seems impossible to do justice to each one. * '• * • '••• ; This happens to be National Petroleum Week. Such calls for citation of the oil industry and the great part petroleum has contributed to our civilization, and here in Rappahannock many people are grateful for petroleum products, from the gasoline with ./which they run their tractors to the bottled gas jvith which they cook. It also happens to be National Bible Week. Now, what are you going to do? Posters can be put along the highways to induce people to prevent fires; the public can be told of the fine work done by the physically handicapped; all the other nationel weeks can be praised. Can a way be devised whereby the Bible can be treated in a like manner? Most of us would be a little shocked to see the Bible treated as any regular celebration scheme. This seems to be a case where the subject is different and cannot be named appropriately -with the other weeks regardless of how worthy they are. Next week is Conservation Week. In a rural county such as Rappahannock, too much emphasis cannot be placed on the value of conserving "the land which the Lord Thy God giveth thee.” At a great expense, this nation is beginning to learn the price of destroying the soil and natural resources of a great land. Truthfully, many of us need to be reminded that the gift of the earth is a stewardship in man’s hands. Next week, from the Governor’s proclamation on through the week, we shall bear of the values of conserving the land and the natural resources. We shall be reminded of what has been done and what has yet to be dona- iL behooves us to listen and profit from our hearing. *» •&*p*vs*as«js,t v Be Glad You're Not Beautiful Do you spend ft good de»l of time fretting about your looks, -wishing you could swop faces with some very handsome person you admire? If you do, stop pitying yourself—and start pitying the handsome people you envy. It is true that beauty gives a person many immediate advantages in opening doors and attracting admiration. But life is frequently made so easy for the handsome people during their youth that they have little incentive to develop their capacitis. Our most conspicuously handsome presidents were Warren G. Harding, James Buchanan, Franklin Pierce, and Chester A. Arthur.' All are rated by historians as among our most ineffectual, least distinguish*}, Presidents such as Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt—who will go down in history —have been conspicuously unhandsome, or were during their youth. American parents tend to trees, ure and overprotect their bestlooking children. They should realise that with their good fortune comes the added responsibility of seeing that these children have normal opportunities for personality development despite the temptation to ride on their outer glory. ■ The only worth-while beauty a person can have is, in essence, an inner sparkle produced by a combination of THE AMERICAN WAY r -r A Chinese Pussle ®ay give you dangerous delusions about yourself.

According to the advertisements, on Monday, Macy’s invited the public to come see “A country store from the turn of the century, crammed with everything from a cracker barrel to a whalebone corset-over 700 quaint items.” Well, the poor New Yorkers, at least, have had an opportunity to see what a country store looked like—but they’ve missed the real point of a country store, the chief value of which lay In the conversation furnished by the loafers. Get someone to tell you of the tales that came from Schwarts’s store porch, or from Wood’s store while waiting for the bell to sound the arrival of the mail, or any other gathering place in the county, for every community had one or two. New York missed that part of the country store, and it was the most important put.

Control The Temper People with a temper have something deep within them which inevitably and unavoidably will surge to the top. They are surprised as much by the emergence as are those about them. It is a common belief that a person with >• a temper also has endearing characteristics which offset his- instability in the face of untoward circumstances. As everyone with a temper knows, the anger rushes from us in waves which get stronger and higher. It seems that we build their violence with a frenzied glee. Usually we realize in a few minutes—after H is too late—that we have lost a friend or annihilated an opportunity. We hope that our apology and contrition will make amends, but the status quo is gone forever. As we grow older we become wary of the waves. We are on guard against their approach. We do not let the outburst go beyond the elemental surge. And, when we have become very wise, only a flash of the eyes gives bint that the wires have been crossed and that we have blown a fuse. We still have the old temper, but we’ve got it under control -- ' ^ great man shows his greatness - bythe way he treats little men. Theatre Shows start at 7:15 and 9 P.M.

tion level* is a comparison of farm marketing income^ During the five Mr. Brown noted, cash income of Virginia farms advance 23 percent from *001,7*4,000 to *46S,010,000. AIUS SWSUMIUM U1UVS9C IU agricultural income is indicative of the greater farm production vital to the nation’s defense effort, " he said. “The increase was made, however, within the framework of sound agricultural practice-better farming methods, diversified production of crops and livestock, and a high degree of mechanisation. The rural banks of our state have worked closely with their farm customers and have given wholehearted support to ' programs of soil conservation, pasture improvement, and ether programs , benefiting our rural communities. Bank loans which increase production and farm efficiency are one of our greatest weapons against runaway inflation. “In carrying out their individual projects of mechanisation and better land use, our farmers have found bank credit an increasingly useful tool.” Quoting from the tenth national survey of farm lending by the Agricultural Commission of the American Bankers Association, Mr. Brown noted that “in 1950, the last full year of operation,the Virginia banks serving agricultural communities loaned $56,580,400 to <82,060 farmers to meet all types of financial needs. Of the total amount loaned, $45,554.000 was borrowed by. 28,056 farmers to finance production and operational • requirements. This compares with 84,099 production loans, totaling $37/221,000, during 1949. The rapid repayment of production loans is shown by the fact that on January 1, 1951, only 929.996.000 remained outstanding. “On January 1, 1950, farmers had a total of bank-held mortgage debt of $28,177,000. During the year, banks made 3,364 additional agricultural real estate loans in an aggregate amount of $11,026,000. Yet, at the end of the year only $29,351,000 of this long term debt was outstanding, indicating that this type of debt is being held to a minimum. "The increased cost of production to he individual farmer is shown by the rise in the average production loan from $1,0912 in 1949 to $1^590 in 1950. The average agricultural real estate loan in 1950 was $3,278. ‘.’The total of bank-held agricultural debt outstanding .in Virginia on* January 1 of this year was $58,687,000, excluding C. C. C. loans,” Mr. Brown said. Smoker* Present Fall Forest Fire Threats Forest fire danger in the county was considerably reduced by the recent rains. Chief Forest Warden Raymond M.

CALL day, 2851; Nights or Sundays, 2161. tfllfllllinrYffimmtiirtti Mr, Screen W: tour of northern nection with the sored by the motion picture industry for the fiftieth anniversary of the establishment of'a movie theatre. T. I. Martin, manager of Pitts Theatres, was taking the Tunbergs on a sight-seeing trip to Skyline Drive when "Mrs. Tunberg exclaimed over the beautiful apple orchards. “All my life," she said, ‘’I’ve wanted to pick an apple from a tree and eat it right then!” Mr. Martin assured the visitors from California that Rappahannock was as famous for her hospitality as for her fine apple orchards, and he carried his guests to “Sunstroke Manor/’ near, Woodville, where they were greeted by Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Winfrey. Mr. Winfrey conducted Mr. and Mrs. Tunberg intv an orchard and allowed the lady to pick apples. She chose a cluster of five Golden Delicious, and was horrified at the waste of all those beautiful apples lying on the ground when Mr. Winfrey told her that a “drop” was useless since it was bruised. The California visitors seemed so impressed with Rappahannock that they began to fire qusetions right and left about the county and stated they would like to live here. The Tunbetg family includes a 14-months-old son, who did not make the long business trip with his parents. On friday evening at the Lord Culpeper Hotel, Mr.* Tunberg -spoke to a group concerning the purpose of this trip through the country by representatives of the ■W* industry. Representatives of theatres, Chambers of Commerce, and civic organizations from Warren ton, Front Royal, and Culpeper were present to bear the screen writer tell of the side of Hollywood's big business that most of the public doesn’t know about. The movie industry, stated Mr. Tunberg, was like any other industry.

Unfortunately, he said, the newspapers are filled with stories'of a few, who may not be such good citizens, but their antics furnish copy for the newspapers. Where are about 200 people in Hollywood who are considered “good story material," the stars and* featured players, and about 500 newspaper reporters trying to get a better story. The results are known, but many of the men of the industry* writers, producers, techniciansdo not enjoy the unfavorable publicity. “Where the Hollywood divorce rate is high, and most *>f us are ashamed of it,* “Mr. Tunberg stated, “still the movie-town rate is only 30 per cent against the nation’s 40 per cent, btit no one emphasizes that fact.” Mr. Tunberg answered questions about the-'movie industry. In reply to the question as to why we don’t get more “good” movies, Mr. Tunberg gave the very logical answer: “We are business men. We make the kind of movie you call for. We are interested in the quality of our work but we must make a profit.” He ^pntinued his explanation by saying that the type of movie that the public goes to see is the type the producer must put out. He gave an earnest plea that movie-goers would patronise the better movie and thus allow the industry to concentrate on making that quality. As an example, answering another question he said that the industry wanted every movie to be the best, but they Iwere human beings, and would sometimes miss, just as the publishers put out some 12,000 books annually and only eight or nine of them will be any real good. One thing Mr. Tunberg brought out about the-' Hollywood and movie-business citizens is well known. They are jpetierous. They give a larger proportion of their time and money to charities than any other business nrobahlv in the nation. An item given by Mr. Tunberg was spoken with pride, and that was the statement made by General Marshall saying that World War II was won by the atom bomb and the movie short. It is estimated, said Mr. Tunberg, that the use of movies in training soldiers cut about ont-third of the time from the old method of training. Mrs. Tunberg formerly of England, has appeared in several movies, •including “Kitty,” for which Mr. Tunberg had written the script.

Lyne, county agent, advises farmers to use 400 to 600 pounds per acre of a 4-16-8, 7-7-7, or 5-10-10 fertilizer for non-legume cover crops, such as lye grass or'small grains. He suggests using 400 to 600 pounds of either 2-12-12, 0-14-14, or 0-14-7 for legumes such as crimson clover. If the cover follows a heavily fertilized crop, however, it may not need additional fertilizer. For details on profitable management of winter cover crops, ask your county agent, for Circular 505# “Winter Cover Crops.” ■ ; ' -If— State 4-H Winner* ^ Announced At V.P.I.

Mealtime Complaints Our children have come into a habit of mealtime complaints. The food toe eat is good—and by any standards adequate. We have tried to shots our children hots fortunate they are to have wholesome, nutritious food when so many others in the world are hungry. It does no good—the complaints continue. Is there any solution? There is no easy solution, but the following suggestions may be of some value: 1. Be sure you have food that is not only adequate but palatable, and that it is prepared and saved in an attractive way. Variety is important, also. Guard against putting too large helpings on your children’s plates. 2. Overcome the tendency to say, “Now be sure to eat this as it is good for you.” Children—and even adults— tion’t especially like to eat what is good for them. It doesn’t help the situation, either, to keep reminding them how fortunate they are to have wholesome, nutritious food. 3. Let your -children help you plan the menus for a day or a week. Let tnrm suggest special foods that they would like and how they want them to Le served. 4. Have meals on time. Be sure that your children are hungry, which means you will not let them stuff themselves with knickknacks just before mealtime. It is important that you and your husband show that you enjoy the food. If the children complain, quietly let them know that this is all the food there is and if they do not care to eat it they must go Without. When they discover that their complaints do not especially d:«turb you and that they must go hungry if they do not eat what is put before them, they are likely to quit making such a fuss over the food. When They Fight Back My two-year-old son, the only child, is getting into the habit of striking me cr just striking at me when he doesn’t gcPtrkat he wants-o^when f tpankhitn. I’ve ignored it at times and Tve tried spanking him again but both methods have failed. Do you think he will continue to do this or is it just a stage of childhood ho is in? How would you suggest breaking him of this, before it gets to be a habit? The chance* are that this fa a passing phase in the development of your child and, therefore,-there is no special cause for alarm on your part, h might be well, nevertheless, for you to keep in mind the following: ' A child of two quite naturally (trikes back if he is slapped. It may be possible, therefore, Oiat the reason he is this habit is because yon or spanking \qq - Tit! Furthermore, conscientious pr sometimes expect too much of * children end are too strict wkh the Wh« > even more disastrous. they •eqnently, their children find most of their desires thwarted and there arises within them feelings of guilt and inse- - curity, as well as hostility. This sense of hostility may lead to the habit of slapping or striking. Check yourself at this point, too. Remember that your child is only two and that you mustn’t expect him to meet disappointment or thwarting in a mature manner. Be patient with his outbursts. Be firm when, necessary, but let it be accompanied by appreciation and affection. The Family Egotist My teen-age son is very self-centered. He seems to be so absorbed in himself that he cannot talk or think about anything except himself. It becomes rather tiresome even to his parents at times. Will he outgrow this? (That can «« do to get his mind off himself? It is not surprising that your sou should be somewhat self-centered. Most adolescents are. They are becoming increasingly aware of themselves as persons. They are quite impressed with the new knowledge they are acquiring in school and elsewhere. Their social contacts are beginning to broaden, and they are in the process of breaking the “apron strings” that have tied them to their homes.

Route 522 DON’T TAKE A CHANCE > Frankfurter and Green Peg Casserole * Slate America's favorite sausage in casserole dress ? for thrifty fall meals. w the frankfurter, wienerwnrst. weiner, “hot dog," frank—whatever yon choose to call it—was introduced to America about 100 years ago. Since then it has ranked as a “top” favorite with young and old. Served on a bun with all the trimmings, the "hot dog” outranks all comers as the country’s leading eat-as-yon-go meal. For less informal eating, the frankfurter is also a star menu performer. It is just as popular teamed up with sauerkraut, or baked in a tonguetingling barbecue sauce, or split and broiled with a wedge of snappy cheese. „ \ A new way in which to capitalize on the frank’s popularity is to serve, it en casserole smothered in a tempting cheese sauce along with plump, garden green peas. Feature Frankfurter and Green Pea Casserole for either lunch or dinner and accompany it with crisp-crusted enriched rolls and pats of spread-easy margarine.

PuIpwood Production Readies High Peak PuIpwood production in Virginia for 1350 exceeded 1,000,000 cords, but increases in other south eastern states dropped Virginia to fourth place. J. W. O'Byrne says that of the cords produced in Virginia, 775,000 were of pine; 240,573 of various hardwoods; and 19,455 of chestnut that was also worked for tannic acid. By counties, the distribution ranged from more than 75,000 cords in Buckingham to none in Bland, Buchanan, Dickenson, and Tazewell, (where mine\ props have better sale than pulpwood) and a, few other counties where there is little timber, Twelve counties produced more than 25,000 cords. Although pines still predominate, there is a significant increase in the amount of hardwoods being used. In Alleghany, Amherst and 'Buckingham, hardwoods exceed pine, while in several other counties they are. a considerable proportion of the cut. OIByrne sees “ this as a healthy trend. Hardwoods are preferred for some grades of paper, and can be used more extensively for' others. The amount of caah paid out last year for pulpwood cut In Virginia and delivered to the mill or Siding, was well over $14,000,0(H). And pulpwood makes up less than 16 percent of the total cut. —BIRTHDAY PARTY Miss Mary Jenkins of Woodville celebrated her birthday Sunday evening at Washington.

Glen Parsley, assistant Extension Dairyman at V.P.I., reports that of the 88 sires proved in Virginia last year, 59 maintained or increased the production of their daughters over that of the dams, Bred to 702 dams averaging 8,670 pounds of butter fat, the sires had daughters averaging 8,869 -pounds of milk and 406 pounds of fat. This is an increase over the dams of 199 pounds of milk and 18 pounds of fat. The average of the proved sire daughters is well above the 1950 dairy herd improvement association average of 8,174 pounds of milk and 344 pounds of fat. Pursley says many more sires could be proved if ail available lactation records were reported. Leading the state in reporting so far this year are the Tidewater #2 and Amelia associations, which reported on 79 percent and 70 per cent respectively of the cows on test. Other associations above the 50 per cent mark are Wythe #1, Shenandoah-Page, and Botetourt. --W -- Miss Gloria Ann Moss was a recent visitor in Washington, D.C.
