$2.00 PER YEAR WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1952 VOLUME 3—NUMBER 42 Teachers Begin Meetings For School Opening _ Tuesday, September 2 All county teachers will be on hand Monday, August 25, to start the first meetings to formulate plans for school opening the following week, Tuesday, September 2. Most of the old teachers (perhaps it would be better to say “former v teacherji” since the ladies might * resent that word “old”) will be back on the job. A few new teachers will^ arrive in time for the meetings. Two teachers will be termed not-, new and not-old. They are Mrs. W. L. Wake and Mrs. W. F. Moffett, Jr.> Mrs. Wake, as Miss Lauck, was a teacher at Amissville; she is now a resident of Washington and is “home folks” in the county, so when she teaches in Woodville school she cannot be termed new. Mrs. Moffet^was formerly a teacher in Washington High School; her return will he to the county high School. Mr. and Mrs. Donald Grosecfose, who have been in the county for several weeks,will be t teachers in Washington. Mrs. Groseclose will have a section of eight grade work and Mr. Groseclose is shop teacher. The new athletic coach is Mr, Cascio, a graduate of Shepherd Teachers College, West Virginia. In addition to his duties as coach, Mr. Cascio may teach science classes. At present, he has quarters in the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. M. (Snippy) Miller at Washington. Plans are not complete for all class arrangements in the high school. The purposes of many of the teacher*’ meetings is to perfect plans and class schedules. Mrs. David Corbin, who formerly taught Latin, may return to this section, but no definite plans are made! • At Jiperryville Elementary School, the lunch room is being converted , into a combination of library and lunch room, while the former library is being converted for the fourth grade frotn Washington to he moved in. This is the fourth grade taught by Mrs. J. W. Price. All present plans are subject to change in the forthcoming meetings. Sunday School Rooms Partly Completed The building committee for the addition to the Washington Baptist Church consisting of four Sunday School rooms, two rest rooms, and a kitchen would, like very much to have tl^L work completed, by winter. In orc^r to accomplish this, more funds must be available. To date the committee reports the financial status to be approximately 6,500 raised, i $6,200 paid out, $500 plumbing obligation and $4,(XX) needed for completion. Letters have been sent out to all members asking for a contribution from those who have not contributed. The meml»ers of Xthe committee feel Jhis to be such a worthy cause, that every member who is interested in the spiritual welfare of the community, will deem it a privilege to do so. Arrangements Completed For Amissville Fire Carnival The equipment for Amissville’s Fire Carnival and Fair September 26 r and 27 has J>een arranged for, Lieutenant Mitchell Green of the Amwsville Volunteer Fire Company announced at last week's drill. It is expected to include a swing and ride as well as the other customary fun-providing games of luck and skill, and concession stands. The carnival will be held on the Lloyd H. Llewellyn place across from Palmer’s General Store. Mr. Llewellyn donated the use of his property for tbetwol days of the carnival. Home , >! I I l IIMEWS i-SESL * By Elizabeth Fuss SCHEDULE FOR bTEXT WEEK August 29, Castleton H.D. picnic at the home of Mfs. John Woodward. * * * Thirty-two 4-H boys and girls are spending this week at Powell’s Fort | Camp. A very full program has been planned including classes in handcraft, nature study, and recreation. Instruction in swimming will be given in the afternoon. — The third week of August brings to man families the problem of “back to school clothing/' Blends of rayons or acetate with wool for fall or dark cottons now being shown for fall will be of special interest as they may meet the family needs. These fabrics will be cheaper than wool and many of them can be cared for by laundering in the home. New blends or mixtures of fillers can be costly to you and the cleaner when they ar& unknown. Ask for labels when you buy and sew them in your clothing. Special finishes such as wrinkle resistant also should be noted or sewn irt label. One of age old school costumes is the sweater and skirt ensemble. .How well the sweater will wear and keep it good appearance depends not only on the fiber itself, but also on the way it is made—the knitting and other details. For example a sweater may be full fashioned or cut and sewn like a dress. The finest and most expensive ones are full fashioned. This means the back, front and slaves are knit on machines that shape and bind off edges as they knit. Where these stitches are increased or decreased, 'little marks may be seen. Fashioning marks are sometimes imitate'd or cut and sewn on sweaters for looks only. If marks are geniiine the rows of stitches on either side of the mark are set at an angle. If fashioning is imitated the rows of stitehes arc simply parallel. In making sweaters, it is much quicker and cheaper to cut pieces of knit yard goods by pattern than the knit shaped pieces/Therefore inexpensive sweaters are 'always cut and sewn. This does nof mean that some of these better grade sweaters are not good buys for serviceability and appearance. A shopping guide for sweaters has been prepared by Miss Shirley Johnston. Copies of this bulletin may be obtained from my office. * * * And now a hint for you mothers Are you getting your money value in stockings? Perhaps you have been buying a smaller denier, that is finer thread. IS denier is the sheerest and is designed for very special wear, not to withstand hazards of every day. The higher gauge 60 rather 51 gives better wear in a 15 denier for dress up. “Tie Lake” Opens With Dance, August 22 “The Lake,” at Washington, will hold the first of its official entertainments tomorrow night, August 22, with a Barn Dance. The Free State Ramblers will be on hand with their stringed band and a figure-caller for the dances. Gibson Whorton is manager of the opening dance. ; “The Lake,” or Davises Lake, was used for the Red Cross swimming classes this summer. Swimming parties and picnics, and some boating have furnished entertainment during the summer at the hoispitality of George H. Davis, owner. If this proves to be a location for entertainment, there are plans for Sunday band concerts during the early fall, and reports say that a college glee club may be invited to give a program at The Lake. Enthusiastic Crowd Hears Sunday Concert Feeling certain that the baritone and harpist program is bound to be the best of the season, those in atten<®dhnce at the Blue Ridge Music Festival concert Sunday expressed thorough approval. As one person said, “I was as happy as the baritone, and he surely had a good time, for he looked it!” '¥ . Tivis Wicker, baritone, captured his audience with a pleasant personality and a powerful set of pipes. His narrative style brought enthusiastic response. His Spirituals were right, and “The Road to Mandalay” was pure entertainment. Miss Jeanne Chalifoux, the? young harpist, was an ethereal contrast to the vigorous baritone. Many people who had never heard a harp outdoors, expressed favorable reports. The concert audience was not large, and those who missed k were unfortunate. y Rappahannock Election Draws Near Community PMA elections will be held in each of Rappahannock County’s (5) farm communities on Friday, August 29, H. S- Barksdale, chairman of the PMA county committee, announced today. At these elections, farmers in each community will vote for three farmers to serve on the community committee, for a delegate to the county convention to elect a PMA county committee for 1953, and for alternates. Voting will be by the ballot box method, Mr. Barksdale said, the Ecumenical Church. Any farmer can vote if He is owner, operator, tenant or sharecropper on a farm participating in the Agricultural Conservation Program or if lie is carrying out conservation practices in accord with that program. Also, a farmer may vote if he is eligible for participation in any, other PMA programs. There is one important change in voting eligibility this year. Persons under 21 years of age are not eligible to vote unless they are in charge of farming operations on the entire farm. The effectiveness of ACP, price support, and marketing programs will depend a great deal on the type of PMA committeemen who farmers will select, Mr. Barksdale said. The concentration of the Agricultural Conservation Program in 1953 on the problems of individual farms adds to the need of able committeemen. Committeemen elected on August 29 will commence immediately to visit farms in their respective communities and assist farmers in selecting the most needed conservation practices. Mr. Barksdale said it is PMA’s objective to complete the sign-up under the 1953 ACP l»efore the beginning of the year.

We may have to use it ourselves for an ad something like this: “Wanted—Ladies' bicycle with typewriter. Telephone has been out three times this week and society editor needs traveling desk in order to collect news items.’1 In order to finance this advertisement, we are. going to furnish photographs of Mrs. Miller pedalpushing about, stopping to type up a news item. Photos of the ladynews-gatherer pumping up a flat tire will cost twice as much. The proceeds from sale of photos will pay for ad and bicycle, we hope.

Rappahannock News Published Thursday Morning at Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia Dial Washington 2851 ‘ LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE _ Publisher Entered as * second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia. __$2.00 a year Subscription: Aftermath Ten Times Worse By, DeWitt Emery (Editor’s Note: DeWitt Emery is president of the National Small Business Men’s Association.)1 The steel strike is over, at least the men are back to work and the mills are running. Actually, however, the strike is still on for many of the manufacturers and fabricators who had to shut down becausey they ran out of n^terial. And the “strike” has not started yet for thousands of small plants, some pretty big ones tbo, which wilf have to shut iown sometime within the next thirty or sixty days because they can’t j£t steel. Some of these plants will be down Ifor three or four months, maybe longer, and others will never reopen because the owners will not be able to carry the overhead while waiting for steel and thus will be forced into bankruptcy. Before the strike, defense production was taking about 20% of all of the steel produced. For the next several months defense production will take at least 40% of the total. This, on top of the twenty million tons lost by the strike, means that an awful lot of non-defense manufacturers aren’t going to get any steel at all until sometime next year. The strike itself was bad enough but the * aftermath will be ten times worse. 1 said recently that “the steel strike is a national disgrace.” It is and if it hasn’t hit you yet, directly or indirectly, it will and when it does remember it was all caused by two men, Phil HWkirray, President of the C.I.O., and H^rry Truman, President of the United States. In the final settlement Murray accepted terms which the steel mills offered before the strike was a week old Truman, any time after the first day of the strike or even before it started, could have stopped it by invoking the Taft-Hartley Act. Then once the procedures set up by this Act were put into operation, the steel workers would have had an opportunity to vote by secret ballot on whether to'accept the steel mills’ last best offer or go on strike. That ballot PITTS FRONT ROYAL THUR. - FRI., AUG. 21 - 22 DOUBLE FEATURE “DEATH VALLEY” —Hit No. 2 - JOHN LITEL — in — “Northwest Trail” SATURDAY, AUGUST 23 RUTH TERRY — in — “JAMBOREE” SUN. .

AUG, 26 - 27 BARRY SULLIVAN BELITA —In— "THE GANGSTER” unquestionably would have killed any possibility of a strike. «• However, Truman, playing dirty ward politics which is all he knows, told Murray before the strike started that he would not use the Taft-Hart-r ley Act and the strike was on. This country, that means you and me. and all of our neighbors and other friends has paid a terrible price which it’s impossible to calculate because Sidney Hillman, a union labor boss, cleared that little guy for 4 Vice President in 1944. What about fhe future? John L. Lewis, is a matter of a few weeks, may take his miners out on strike and shut the steel mills down again. How much longer are the American people going to stand for this sort of thing? —How much longer are they going to permit a half dozen unscrupulous, power-hungry union labor bosses to have complete control over the welfare of 160 million Americans? When are they—the people—going to have sense enough or guts enough to force Congress to bust up the union labor monopoly which is by far the most dangerous monopoly this country has ever known? The remedy which I bave spelled „ out time and again is for Congress to amend the Taft-Hartley Act to put a ban on industry-wide bargaining. Now while the congressional campaign is on would be a mighty good time for you to find, out how the candidates of both parties in your district stand on this important matter. Ask them point blank, “if elected, will you vote to put a ban on industry-wide bargaining?” and, if neces• sary, insist on a straightforward yes or no answer. This is only one of several things in the national picture which must be corrected if every American is to continue to have the right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness so long as he does not interfere with these same rights of any other American.

Just name your choice and dive in! There’s never a dull moment! o o o There’s re-modeling going on at a home in Washington, with plastering, sawdust, and chips flying high and wide. The poor, meticulous housekeeper, iwith all that dirt in her house, is like a mother blue-jay with a cat in the yard! The lady sweeps the front porch; in five minutes it’s piled up with sawdust and dirt again. She pushes the broom briskly through the house^by the time she sweeps this lot out the back door, it’s just as dirty again. Someone has suggested that she try camping until, the workmen finish and then clean up once and for-all. But her tidy soul rebels. Sympathy can flow freely from the hearts of all housekeepers who have been forced to endure this experience of house-repair. I recall when we had the kitchen re-plastered. We sealed up the door to the dining room and planned all traffic for workmen to go through the back door. It was iwasted thought, time, and energy : the dust from the torn-down plaster seeped everywhere — clear through to the front closet in the upstairs bedroom! But we got a laugh out of it anyway.

Health Bulletin Your child will not be expected to know the ABC’s or to count to ten when he starts to school this September, but he will be expected to embark upon his school adventure in the best possible health, states State Health Commissioner Mack I. Shanholtz in a reminder to parents. According to Dr. Shanholtz all, preschool children planning to enter Virginia schools this fall Should be taken to their physician or a nearby health department clinic for a physical check-up if they have not received such an examination in the last month or two. Now is the time for this check-up he reminded, so that any defects or unfavorable conditions may be treated before the opening of school. “It is necessary to present evidence of successful vaccination against smallpox before a child can be accepted in the first grade or kindergarten classes of Virginia schools,” Dr. Shanholtz said. “If the child received this vaccination during infancy, he should be revaccina.ted before entering school to keep his immunity at a high level.” Although not required by law, diphtheria immunization is also recommended for all children about to enter school. Those who were safeguarded against this disease during babyhood should l>e given a “booster” to insure continuing immunity. Those who have never received this protection should be inoculated immediately, urged Dr. Shanholtz. ' ‘In addition to these routine immunizations, the preschool child may need other medical and dental attention. If so parents are urged o carry out the physician’s recommendations at the earliest possible date. No child should be forced tp enter school with any unnecessary health handicap, for the new demands of school will require much of the child,” concluded Dr. Shanholtz. The speed limits are applicable? unless restricted to a lower speed by the State Highway Commissioner. w The law also says that you must not drive at such a low speed that you will block traffic or make the highway dangerous.

It was found that only one farmer in 66 could give a satisfactory answer. The soil conservation district was often confused with fedfiral agencies. If the committee approves, it gives notice of a referendum at which all landowners in the district may vote. If the required percentage of voters are in the affirmative the committee then appoints two supervisors who file application for a certificate of incorporation. If the certificate is granted the district comes into legal existence and fan' be dissolved only by referendum at the end of five years.
