NEWS, page 4) ; County Youngsters Enjoy Red Cross Swim Program By Georg* H. Deris, Jr. It is not too late to join the water fun already experienced by more than 100 of* the county young people during the first few days of Rappahannock’s swimming meet. Mr. Camp, Eastern Area Red Cross Swimming & Winter Safety instructor, has provided unusual fun and relief from summer heat to many young people, and relief to the parents from fear of their child's future drowning in the numerous swimming holes they can’t stay out of.. For proof of his ability to teach— and have fun, one child was heard— to say, 'I wish we had this much ‘kick’ in all our ■ school classes,” while a parent1 jokingly remonstrated, “It’s the first time he didn’t want to go home after school’s out!” A very observant young lady, donning her two-piece bathing , suit, apparently -the firstby necessity, was overheard to say, “I could do,'this all summer-— Mother, isn’t he good-looking?” Mamma made no reply but a quick glance proved her daughter's good taste. ■Classes have been divided into three groups according to age: 1. beginners, 2. intermediates, and 3. swimmers. Since quite an interest has been shown by parents, an ' adult class is being organized. The locations of the classes will be at the Davises’" Lake, Washington, and Mrs. 'Slaughter's pool, Huntly. “Those taking the instruction may choose the facilities most convenient,'’ according to Mra. Kathleen . Lawrence, local .Bed Groai chair•' mask - •••.’ •' : ; mt? . *• “ School Bn Rons for ClaoM The county School Board has made available two school buses for transportation provided the local Bed Cross Chapter pays the expenses of operation and liability insurance. The bus route will begin Thursday the -17 and continue - through the 25th of July; it is expected that over 250 will enter the courses. --Where crowds gather, Dr. Johnson and Ralph Straun of the Rappahannock Health Department effeetiently perform their public function by being on hand to determine the health factors involved. Both were present Monday at the Washington facilities when the county swim classes were organized. Ralph Straun iwas favorably impressed with the large supply of fresh water entering the lalce at all times and the large amount being carried off through the overflow pipe. This factor gives the lake, which is more than 2 acres in water surface (about one-thipd of which is approximately 18 feet deep,) a quick turn over of new water. Mr. Davis stated that the major engineering problem was one of too much flow of wat^r into the lake which has been overcome by two 20 foot spillways, one on each side of the dam in addition to the overflow pipe. Regardless of where public swimming is conducted, those entering the water should be immunized against typhoid fever. This is _ $lso true for the,.cpriL field swimmliig^boie! Dr. Johnson recommends, that all persons taking part in the program, be immuned. Although > this is not presently compulsory* Boat Ride V Mitchell Green of Amissville provided several youngsters the thrill of a speedy motor boat ride late Monday afternoon. Mr. Green brought his boat, 5-horse-powermotori to Washington and expertly breezed over the surface of the lake often referred to as' “Lake George.” 'Mr. and Mrs. George Davis have added a new boat to their lake and ^ expect a third this week.

Sperryville Scouts Show Working Spirit The Boy Scouts of Sperryville, ten strong, are looking for jobs. In this day and time, when so many youngsters seem to have the idea that “gimme’' is the order, these boys want odd-jobs and errands. They need a troop banner and a flag, and. these cost money, so the boys are trying to work for enough money to - purchase this necessary CQuipment. , (S. O. S. to folks in the Sperryville ' neighborhood: If you have errands and odd-jobs, please call the Scouts. They announce that they are exceptionally good at weed-pulling and grass-cutting, for they’ve had plenty of experience!) Along with their plea for paying j obs, theJScouts -are-quick- to- tell that— they don’t want to be paid for little jobs which would be classified as5 their daily “good turn,” for that falls in line, of being of service to their community and to their fellowman. However, if you would pay for the job, let the Scouts do it. | Within the next two weeks the Sperryville Scouts are giving dinner. The food is being donated, but the Scouts are doing all the work themselves, from the cooking clear .' through, the “kitchen police’’ detail at the end of the meal. Everyone is invited to attend and announcements of the date will be made as soon -as plans are completed. ■ , Rev. A. Paul Thompson is scout master at Sperryville, and lately Carson Johnson and Ralph Straun have been helping the troop with their w°rk on merit’ badges. ;•> ’' 'r MUSIC FESTIVAL TICKETS NOW ON SALE Tickets are now on sale for the f. summer concerts of 4he Blue Ridge iMusic Festival.

Calm . and level-headed citizens of the Old Dominion can now class themselves with the farmer who had the hired man who knew how “to sleep well on windy nights.” As long as our government is in the capable hands of Senator Byrd, we can know that, as near as he can manage it, our nation’s business will be prepared for any high (or ill) winds that arise in the night. Not America** Voice? • The following iettre appeared in Sunday's Star, written by Efijin Grose close, of “Trianon,” Rappahannock county. On July 6 there appeared a letter from the religious consultant to the Voice of America, the Rev. Albert Joseph McCartney, LL.D., in defense of the broadcasts of Moslem religious propaganda by the Voice. The letter was in reply to a protest in your columns by “one” Elgin Groseclose (happily or unhappily there is only one Elgin Groseclose) that such broadcasts were improper, unrepresentative of American culture, an un constitutional use of public moneys, and that their hypocrisy created sentiments of cynicism and resentment abroad rather than good will. The defense offered by the Voice to these criticisms, through its distinguished religious consultant, while lame, is a wholesome sign that this travesty of Amencan life may receive more atten- • tion from the public than it has and that the Voice may begin to examine more deeply what it tries to reflect. The distinguished religious consultant says of the broadcasts that “we strive to present a balanced picture of religious life in America.” By what logic can it be said that sermons on Islam by such foreigners as Iman Hiratuddin of PITTS DRIVE-1M THEATRE FRONT ROYAL THURS.-FRI., JULY 17 - 18 RICHARD MARTIN —in— “HOT LEAD” — DOUBLE FEATURE — “Jungle of Chang” SATURDAY, JULY 19 * “RIDERS OF THE PONY EXPRESS” KEN CURTIS SUM-MON., JULY 29 - 21 “DRUMS” SABU RAYMOND MASSEY TUES.-WED., JULY 22 - 23 _ DOUBLE FEATURE — “Lure of the Islands” — ALSO — “Queen of Burlesque” * (In Technicolor) . \ ' . . ■ Iraq, Shaikh Mustafa of Syria, Shaikh Mahmud Shaltut of Sgypt, haikh Al-Taher Sbaita of Tripoli, and others, can possibly be a reflection of religious life in Ameri. ca? .V.i. The cbncTusion may bedrawir that the State Department and the Voice have become so international minded that they are ho longer able to distinguish between what is American and what is not. How can sermons on Islam, given twice daily for a foil lunar month, be a “balanced picture of religious life in America?” Does the Voice broadcast two sermons daily on Christianity? r The distinguished religious consultant also says that “our aim is ... to establish a spiritual cama raderie with all those who are today so concerned over the moral destiny of the world.” Would he mean by that that splendid sense of fellowship manifested by the Moslem Brotherhood which in Egyypt, in Pakistan and elsewhere is trying to drive out foreigners (Christians) and to close down all Christian missions? Would he have in mind that 'beautiful spirit of brotherly love of the powerful Moslem ecclesiastic Ayatollah Kasha ni or Iran, whose Fedayan Islam which he heads publicly threatened to assassinate a leading Christian missionary (of the distinguished religious conultant’s own denomination, incidentally) and which has been instrumental in having visas denied to all Christian missionaries who desire to enter Iran? As a theologian of the Christian faith, the distinguished religious to the Voice must be aware that not every one that crieth “Lord, Lord” accepts or believes in the Christian idea of brotherhood, or is a (worshipper of God, and that being from the God revealed in Christ. tHe should know that while Communism is a current threat to the institutions of Christian civilization, of a few decades history, Islam has stood opposed to Christian culture for 1,300 years and is today the chief obstacle to the spread of Christian concepts of a PITTS DRIVE-IN THEATRE CULPEPER On Brandy Road (Route 15) 1% Miles North of Culpeper 2 Shows Ntehtly: 7:30 - and 9:30 A CAR FULL FOR $1.00 Plus 20c tax . .

A very unhappy gentleman awoke Tuesday morning to find that some prankster had put an enormous “vote very unhappy gentleman happened to be as rank a Byrd-man as you could locate with a diygent search, and the idea of teasing, as expressed by another, did not fall wthin the radius of his sense of humor. I would tell who the unhappy gentleman was, but I ‘might get a traffic ticket some time, and I wouldn't like to go up before the Tiral Justice with two strikes against me. I don’t know who put the sign Up, but I've a couple of guesses I could make. This little incident occurred at the county seat and it proves one thing: Rappahannock has calmed down. There was a day, some years back, when such an act would have struck up a near-war! Of course, I wouldn’t like to' say that the Byrd-supporter has really recovered from his temper, but, at least, he doesn’t contemplate • murder when he does find out who hung the “Miller” sign on his door. One Rappahanncok citizen has just social order in the East. Moreover, as I recently pointed out in articles fn the Christian 'Science Monitor, there is actually more affinity between Islam and Communism than between Islam and Christianity. To talk about “spiritual camaraderie” and to devote American money to the promotion of Moslem notions is on the same illusory plane as that “spiritual camaraderie” which we enjoyed with Stalin and his crowd at Yalta, Teheran, and Potsdam.— Elgin Groseclose.

The trend seems to be for big-money to own small I newspapers and printing shops, but a few old-dyed-in-the- wool printers are still sweating it out. There’s a guarantee if some of the big-money had the work to do, they’d forget the• printing business fast! 0 0 0 Bruce Barton furnished us with a pleasant piece of reading recently when he began pondering thus: “When I read history, I sometimes shut my eyes- and wonder: If I had lived in another age, what - sort of fellow would I have been? Would I have enlisted in the wars of that era, or would I have regarded most of them as barbarous and insenate, and done what I could to prevent them? . . . What about the Crusades? They produced two centuries of massacre and famine, with the net result that -the Holy City, which the Christians were trying to free, ended up right where it had been—in the hands of the infidels. ... In our own French and Indian War I think I would have done what Washington did—enlist with the British to throw out the French. And a few years later, I would have t>een helping him, with the aid of the French to throw out the British. Yet this second war of his—our American Revolution— was unnecessary. It was forced on Our reluctant ancestors by the arrogance and stubbornness of George III. Curiously enough, he was not a ‘bad’ king. If he had been a drunkard, gambled, leaving state affairs to his ministers, the quarrel with the Colonies might have been peacefully resolved. But he was a sober, stupid, liard-vyorking, ‘good’ king. How much of the evil of the world has Ninety per cent of wars have settled nothing. Remember this- wretched truth — for in the next few years there will be many ‘good’ people, very eminent ‘good’ people, who will try to persuade you that for righteousness' sake we must, fight another war.

MM Most of these accidents result from - doing simple things the wrong way, and from sheer neglect, H. S. Barksdale, chairman oF~the Rappahannock P.M.A. County Committee said. Mr. Barksdale urged farmers of tlie county to make National Farm Safety Week, July 20-26, the occasion of checking up on accident hazards that exist on nearly all farms. v “Rotten steps, broken ladders, rusty nails, and improperly stored gasoline are ‘booby traps’-ready to take your life or limb just as quickly as any you would find in Korea/’ he said, “failure to light a dark stairway, smoking in a hayloft, or pulling out on the highway without looking, is jnst plain foolhardy. But each year thousands of people keep on doing these things, and suffer the results.” “There’s hardly a city or a county that I know of, which is not crying Medical men calim that we are taller in the morning than in the evening. We’ve noticed, too, that we’ve shorter around the end of the month._ after cutting. “ Hycienths, 10 drops alcohol, 1 pt. water.

If we could have a 100 per cent effective safety program, we wouldn't need so many hospital beds.” The PMA chairman .asks farmers , to make Safety Week the occasion to "clean up and patch up.” He also, calls the attention of Rappahannock County's rural residents to these facts released by the National. Safety \ Council. "" At the present rate, accidents will” claim 15^000* farm residents through death and another 1,300,000 by injury. Disaster is grimly certain unless farm folks adopt Safety on the 1 Farm; - - ^ 6,000 farm residents will die and 220,000 suffer injuries the next year from motor vehicles accidents unless farm operators handle their carsand trucks the Safe way. Falls, burns, poisoning and other unnecessary accidents in farm homes claim the lives of 4,000 /arm residents each year. Doing simple things the Safe way would spare these lives. Fatal or disabling farm work accidents in 1951, according to official figures, involved 424,550 persons and the financial cost, based on workmen’s compensation insurance experience for hired farm labor, amounted to $177,400,000. Mr. Barksdale pointed to the fact that the American farmer this year has been asked for the greatest total output in history, and will require labor to meet such production. ' “Over 17,000,000 man-days are lost and thousands of skilled farm work-«" ers are killed each year du'e to preventable accidents. We cannot afford to allow this waste of our most critical and needed resource to continue unchallenged," he said. “Let us remember that Safety is a year around proposition. Preaching Safety during Safety Week helps—but practicing Safety for 52 weeks a year helps more.” , REAL ESTATE I have prospects for / All Kinds of Property Outside Connections ““•'W. A.

Beliefs and Facts About Poliomyelitis » „ (Released by the Health Depart men t.) _- ; x 1. It is believed that most adult3 have, during their lives, been infected with the virus of poliomyelitis (infantile paralysis) usually ■without knowing it. Such persons thereby acquire immunity, though . the duration of this immunity is not^known. 2. Only a small number of infected persons hav<j clinical disease. t 3. Eariy manifestations of clinical disease are fever," headache, muscle soreness and stiffness of neck and spine. 4. The virus of poliomyelitis has been found in discharges from the nose and throat and the faces of infected persons. 6. Early diagnosis by the physician and prompt treatment are of primary importance. 6. The diagnosed case of poliomyelitis should be isolated for one week from date pf onset or for durationvof fever if longer. 7. During epidemics' of poliomyelitis children should ^ avoid unnecessary exposure in crowds. 8. Postponement of elective nose and throat operations and dental extractions is desirable. 9. Excessive physical strain during epidemics should be avoided. 10. A well-run school or camp —is no—more -hazardous than the child's home environment. - 11. Schools should be kept open. The alert teacher will detect first signs of illness and get a sick child home and to a physician. - 12. When proper isolation is available there is no reason for exclusion of cases of poliomyelitis from general hospitals. ■ Mr. and Mrs. C.

Dr. James Bywaters, poultry researcher at VPI Agricultural Experiment Station, said a test in Switzerland was conducted to compare constant lighting in the hen house, as practiced Fn Virginia, with “shock-lighting” done with a 1,500 watt lamp for five secohds. The test showed shock lighting increased egg production more than constant lighting for four hours with 40 watt lamps. ‘Dr. Bywaters said If further research supports these results, it may he that poultrymen can reduce costs substantially. The practice of using additional tights in the hen house to increase production started more than 100 years ago in Spain. Subsequent research has shown that neither the heat nor additional eating periods have any connection with the increased egg production heceived when lights are burned. However, the increased production has been traced to the stimulation of certain glands by light. Senator Stephens To Speak At Institute of Rural Affairs State Senator A. E. S.

Pastures Need Help In Hot, Dry Weather —Safeguard against extended drouth periods which may severely damage pastures this summer. G. R. Epperson, associate agronomist at VPI, says many pastures last year were drouth-stricken and' provided little grazing in , mid-summer and fall. Here are his suggestions: Seed sweet Sudan grass and soybeans immediately to provide temporary pasture for jate summer and early fall. The mixture also can he used to replace pastures that are being re-seeded at that time.. If the grass and soybeans are not needed for pasture they can be used for silage or hay. * » J Apply 30 to 60 pounds of additional nitrogen in July or August to pastures which are predominatly Of wholly grass. The additional nitrogen will give greater benefits on tallergrowdng grasses such as orchard grass and fescue, Make early seedings of small grains, rye grass, or crimson clover, or combinations of any of these. These seedings should be made in August or early September (30 to 60 days before the average date of the first killing frost), if maximum grazing benefits are to be expected. Seedings of this kind, if fertilized liberally, should provide four to eight weeks’ grazing for five or six cows per acre.
