She recommended in her demonstration that homemakers use “bulbs with the built in shade," and bulbs frosted on the outside in ceiling fixtures. In table lamps‘and floor lamps a different bowl and indirect light bulb were recommended. Later in the meeting the members each made a lamp. The members welcomed Mrs. Acrey Dodson, as a new member. Potatoes are certainly hard to get smd expensive. This brings up the question of other foods to serve with main dishes for variety in the menu. ■ Beans and corn offer many tempting variations for example chilli concame pork and beans. Dried beans are plentiful and a thrifty buy. Many cereal foods are good to accompany your meat. For examplechicken or meat served with noodles or rice; creamed chicken with biscuits, on waffles; chicken and dumplings; macroni with cheese or meat soalloped ^spagetti and ‘meat balls with spicy tomato sauce. Pinch hitters for potatoes also may be the many different stuffings for poultry or fish. Mrs. Peggy Miller said they were especially enjoying stuf fed baked fish. A little bit of onion and parsley added to dressing before putting in the fish made a tempting main dish. The receipe may be found in Money Saving Main Dishes. . a U. S. D.

The complete slate of ladles’ candidates reposes serenely on the printed ballots, awaiting the voters' neat x’s marked in the blocks. If “silence gives consent,” then the ladies are due for a sweeping victory of approval, for the town is very quiet on discussion of the election. If this is “the calm before the storm,” then the picture may he different by Tuesday. Harris Hollow Has a Harris There's s Harris again in Harris Hollow. A gentleman from Chevy Chase, with his wife and three children, came to rent “Ivy Cliffs,” the old Harris Place in Harris Hollow, from Mrs. Elizabeth Harris DeBergh. When he told her his name was ‘Edward Harris, the usual Virginia hunt for relatives began. Mrs. 'DeBergh had an uncle, Ben Harris, who moved to Illinois, and -Edward Harris proved to own an “Unde Ben," too. -They haven’t had time to find out if they are fdally kin or not, so for the present they are adopting each other aa cousins,.. . , .,v. , Mr. Harris is a writer, and he and his family will mova soon to. “Ivy Cliffo." v.

Mr. Scudere is. a salesman for Kaywoody 'Pipe Co., San Francisco headquarters. Miss Ora Deatherage Mias Ora Winona Deatherage, 85, died Thursday morning, May 29, at her home, “Horse Shoe Farm,” after a lingering illness of over six months. Miss Deatherage, daughter of William A. Deatherage and Susan F. East ham of Rappahannock, was the last member of a family of nine children, and is survived by a number of nieces and nephews, many of whom were in, Washing ton for the funeral services. Miss Addie Boyd, who has lived in the Deatherage home since, childhood and was accepted as a member of the family, had cared for the three sisters, Miss Lucy, Miss Neta, and Miss Ora. Miss Ora was a member of the Presbyterian church in Front Royal,; and since her church is without a minister at the present time, funeral services were conducted by Dr. T. W. Hooper of Culpeper Presbyterian church, and Rev. N. J. Flythe of Washington Methodist church. Services were held Saturday afternoon, May 81, from the residence, with interment in the Deatherage family cemetery at “Horse Shoo Farm." * Pallbearers were Frank Eastham, Phillip Byrd East ham, W. G. Eastham, John R. .Moore, W. A* Moore, J. Watt Tobin, and Lewis Moore. Honorary pallbearers included J; W. Fletcher, Brae Wood, ’Warner Mille, John Earle, George Suck, C. J. Miller, D. JD.

A Subsidiary —Pf Last week, you will recall, George Allison, county agent of Page helped me with some 4-H work. George proceeded. to kid me about Rappahannock being a subsidiary of Page. * . > made me kinda mad . . but then the more I think about it the more truth there is to George’s statement. In fadt I hear that Page people reason ‘‘why should I buy land when it can be rented so cheaply in Rappahannock?” In contridiction of this, however, I know of the following Page people who own land in Rappahannock: Messers Varner, Munson, Spitler, Sours, Hershberberger, Grove, S. L. Thomas, and S. H. Thomas. Then there is Mrs. Siebert and another party who owns a field once part of the Gore place. "To me the puzzling factor is why on earth do our people rent their pastures to anyone at such give away prices Prices that were established during the drought of the early thirties. . . strictly depression prices! The last time I wrote about this uneconomical practice grape vine reports were “it’d be different if Bill Lyne were looking for pasture to ; rent” Well folks I’m renting a small boundary of grass and was looking for it at the time the article was written. Also, Pm gladly paying f double what die Page party did last year and fed on the laud all winter • yes» I realise some will ^ say Tut a fool or t sucker for doing '-•so; however I say that anyone having ; comparable grass for rent that is accepting $1.50 per head per month or $1&Q0 per head per grazing season ne^ds to do some more figuring on what present day costs are in the way pf: labor, fencing; lime, fertilizer, machinery, etc. I happen to know of one owner that is getting around $25 per head for the season and his grass is worth that. Yet why should others with comparable grass accept $8-$10? ? It beats me, yet there are at least eight land owners who are doing just that and the tenants don’t feed on the land either! What about this situation. . . would one of you readers express your thoughts via the News next week. Engagement Announced Rev. and Mrs. W. B.

Rappahannock News Published Thursday Morniuf at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia Dial Washington 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Entered as second-class mall matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia. Subscription: .... $2.00 a year Who’* Hie Villian? The Sherman Rogers Publications has issued an amusing and informative booklet, done in cartoon style, called “Who's Profiteering in Food? ~~"It "deals-"with the seai ehnof~unrirste housewife, Maude Murdock, for the villians who are responsible for running her meat bill up. The pot roast that cost her 33 cents a pound in 1939 costs her 69 cents.now and she means to find out why. First she levels her guns on the butcher—only to learn it isn’t his fault. Back in 1939, butchers received 26 cents of each meat dollar spent by consumers—now they take less than 16 cents. And out of it they must pay today’s high taxes, wages, rents and so on. They handle a lot of money, but very little of it sticks to their fingers. Maude then advances on the packers—and again she learns she’s chosen the wrong victim. In 1939, packers received 16 cents of that meat dollar— today their share is under 14 cents. And that isn’t profit—it’s their gross. Their actual profit averages about one cent for each dollar of sales— - and works out to a fraction of a cent for each pound of meat we buy. That leaves the farmers hnd the ranchers, and Maude’s dead sure she’s on the right track at last But again she gets some tremendous surprises. The farmers are doing well, as they should, but they aren’t profiteering and few of them are getting rich. The ' cost of everything they buy has gone way, way up. In 1939 a hired man averaged $50 a month and part of his subsistence— now he makes $175. And average farm family income is well below that of the city dweller. - Maude winds up by discovering that today food represents only one cent more of the purchasing dollar than it did 15 years ago. In other words, our incomes have increased right along with prices. The only one who’s profiteering is “the other fellow” and nobody can find him! Economic Highlights No one knows who the next President will be. But whatever his name and party label, he is in for a rugged time.

JUNE 10 - 11 - 12 ;■ SABU “ELEPHANT BOY” new President will face in a brief but comprehensive feature article. As it observed, the job offers many unique assets and prerogatives. The Chief Executive lives in one of the most magnificent homes on earth. Legions of assistants and servants are at his beck and call. He is treated with the utmost deference by everyone. Hardly a wish goes unfulfilled. He is paid a large salary and receives a $50,000-a-year tax-free expense fund in addition. But all these material benefits lost much of their lustre in the light of the enormous problems with which the President must deal—and of the fateful decisions he, and he alone, must make. The U.S. News _ article is called “Troubles Ahead For Next President." Here, in capsule form, is the gist of what the magazine anticipates for him: DEBT. Soon the national debt will ceiling. The President will have to choose between asking Congress to raise that ceiling or cut the spending. Either way, he will make political enemies. WAR. 'It seem% certain that the Korean War will still be going when he takes office, even though it may be relatively passive. This is a stalemated, totally unpopular war. What will he advocate to end it? BUSINESS. Many economists think that the boom is running down. Next year, it is forecast, there will be a substantial decline in industrial expansion. There will probably be a drop in profits — and that will bring a drop in tax collections, making the budget problem still more difficult. The ranks of the unemployed will be swelled. All this may happen very soon after the next President moves into the White House. AGRICULTURE. Some farm commodities are—ina surplus state now. Other surpluses are anticipated. So, as U.S* News put it, ‘The next President is to be caught between the pressure of city people interested in cheaper food and a farm population Insisting that government support farm prices against substantial decline.” , BUREAUCRACY- The President is the titular boss of 6,200,000 people —2,500,000 civilians and 3,700,000 military. This huge payroll is one of PITTS DRIVE-IN THEATRE CULPEPER ?»n Brandy Road (Route 15) Ms Miles North of Culpeper 2 Shows N'ghtly: 7:30 and 9:30 A CAR PULL FOR $1.00 Plus 20c tax . .

And here again the next President must malm a difficult decision. In the view of U.S. News, “If he does not cut the pay-roll and the functions of the government bureaucracy, his financial troubles will grow. If he does cut the payroll, some people will be out of jobs, raising political fusb, and if he cuts functions some group of region will Iqse a good thing and also will raise a political fuss.” These aren’t all of the problems the beleagured next President will face—not by a long shot. And great problems we can’t even anticipate today may also be his. But they serve to indicate the enormous and unavoidable burdens that are part and parcel of what is accurately described as the biggest job in the world. I think that I have ncyer smelled a thing so lovely as a mile-long stretch of blooming honeysuckle— provided it’s not on my fence. Although my problems are numerous, I consider it unlikely that I shall seek relief by telling my dreams to a psychiatrist at $10 an hour. Our arithmetic is usually accurate to the last cent when our own cash is involved. Why tell me the cures for the world’s ailments, if you can’t tell me the cures for your own difficulties?” Someone was reading a bunch of quotes the other day when they seemed to think the above was amusing. I consider it. decidedly unfair* After I’ve attended to my own business (well, made a stab at it, any way), I’m like the rest of the folks: I spend my off-hours attending to other people’s business.

It cannot be determined what view the original George would take concerning the news in the first town to bear his name. This bit of Jnfor^tjeHuXanceniing"fife illustrious gentleman was found the other day. To supplement the news that the mpdern day will bring to the little mountain county-se^t of Rappahannock, here it is: “The picture of George Washington most familiar to Americans was painted by pilbert Stuart and has been reproduced on stamps and prints for countless schools.

Yet his diet was varied by the fresh fruits and Vegetables of his plantation where he lived his happiest years. "He liked the life of a. country squire, but took his duties as a slaveowner seriously. Up at four in the morning, he usually worked on his accounts for several hours before breakfast This meal included corn cakes browned on a griddle, with honey and tea—sometimes a bit of hani or fish. Then he rode over his farms on a thorough inspection. His knowledge of farming was excellent. might be fresh or pickled meat, garden vegetables and apple dumpling, all well-spiced, followed by imported wine—he liked Madeira especially.

A quest for the right plurals to describe groups of God’s creatures brought forth the following: It’s a rafter of turkeys, a mustering of storks a chattering of starlings, a team of ducks if on the wing or a paddling of ducks if on the water, a convocation of eagles, an exaltation of larks, a pack of grouse, a colony of gulls, a bevy of quail, a congregation of plovers, a gang of ellc, an army of frogs, a troop of kangaroos, a dr<r|f of squirrels, a hover of trout, a pack of perch, a bale of turtles, and a cloud of grasshoppers. voprices. lowHi etaoin shrdlu shrdlu Yep, the English language is “so complete"—but there is still no word for “his or her” if you want to mean both or either.
