State Ubravy RlAmOi.d.19 VOLUME 4—NUMBER 34 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE 25, 1953 Baptist Woman’s Union Holds 61st Annual Meeting The sixty-first annual meeting of the Woman’s Missionary Union, an auxiliary to Shiloh Baptist Association, was held Thursday, June 18, in Washington Baptist church. Centreing the program around the theme “The Things that Build for Everlasting Peace,” the morning session opened at 10:30 with the hymn “0 Zion, Haste.” Rev. G, M. Profittt offered the initial prayer. The 125 members and visitors present were welcomed by Mrs. J. Frank Jones while Miss Mary ■Waller Dickinson of Culpeper gave the response. A devotional built oh John 16:33 was presented by Mrs. G. M. Profitt. Mrs. J. . Browning spoke briefly on “The Christian Business Woman, a Force for Righteousness." A session, “What Are We Doing to Work God’s Work," included reports by Mrs. Lewis Lacy, Mrs. Lawton Blankenbaker, Mrs. A. H. Spilman, Miss Mattie Dickinson, and Mrs. Elwyn Rinker. Group leaders presented short accounts of their organization’s _ activities. Leaders representing their groups were: Mrs. Buford 'Douglas, Mrs. L. M. Twyman, Mrs. Winston omerville, and Mrs. C. B. Johnson. Mrs. E. Rives Ferguson, with a drawing of two wheels each of which depicted a type of communication with the Master Spoke,, talked on the sugject, “All Her Paths Are Peace.’’ Mrs. Lucio Kilby and Mrs. Lucy Cleter rendered “Sweet Peace, the Gift of God’s Love.’’ Mrs. Marjorie Moore Armstrong, a missionary, spoke on “Blessed Peacemakers.” The linen Shower for' the Infirmary of the Virginia Baptist Home for Aged was contributed to with such abundance that the wagon could barely complete its duty. During the afternoon session Mrs. James Atkins gave several musical selections. Mrs. J. Robert Tinsley gave an interracial report and a community missions report was given by Mrs. C. A. Hall. Cleaning-Up Old Hollow Project Prog-esses Up to now, the work done on Old Hollow has been mostly in the clearing and cleaning line. Ten garden club members spent a day in May picking up glass, paper and tin cans and pulling weeds. The highway department has put up picnic tables and an incinerator. Future plans for improvements include the hiring of a bulldozer to (level and scrape down the pool itself. Later on the depths in the pool will be marked and a board for diving will be erected. It is hoped that these plans will be completed by the time for the Red Cross' Swimming Classes directed by Mr. Camp, so that they can be taught at Old Hollow. Although the cleaning of Old Hollow is not a Red Cross project, the Red Cross is very interested in the project and have asked that an article discribing the work in detail be contributed to their publication. Though much has been accomplished there is still much to be done. Funds are running short. The remaining sum will be used to hire the bulldozer for a few hours. At a future date a complete report of the spending of the money donated will be-published. X-RAY CLINIC AT HEALTH DEPARTMENT The X-ray clinic will be held at the Rappahannock Health Department from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on July 6 Anyone wishing to have an x-ray must have a doctor’s request except teachers who will be x-rayed between 1 and 2 o’clock. MiMiMiiiiiiiMMiniMMiiiiiiin.iiiiiiiaiiniiiiHininiiuiHm Forty-four requests for Farm & Home Water Supply surveys have been received at the County Agent’s office. Survey teams will report for the survey work on June 29 and 30. Persons requesting assistance should be on the alert for schedule' of farm and home visits by one of the survey teams. By: W. H. Lyne s I 1 County Agent iui Plans for the 1953 Semi-annual Bangs vaccination program of heifer calves 4-8 months old are now being- made. Indications are thdt some herd owners are not planning to tkeep any replacemen heifers. In certain cases a plan is wise but it is probably not wise in most cases. With declining beef prices the more important it is to have a high percentage of a calf crop to sell. Leading cattlemen throughout the county consider it a “must” to build towards having a herd made up wholly from heifers that were calfhood vaccinated and to maintain such a herd. There are but few herds in the county that have reached this calf crop insurance goal. While the amount of the vaccination fee borne by the state has been reduced, the cost to the owner, 50c per calf, is still mighty cheap protection. Those who have not sent in their requests for heifer-vaccination should call the county agent’s office (telephone 2231). ’Tis too late to mail in a request. * * * * Delegates attending the State Short Course this week at Blacksburg are: Lelia Gentry, Caroletta Gough, Betty Rutherford, Kelly Updike, John Turner, and Newbill Miller. Because of sickness Rappahannock will not have a team in the state-wide livestock judging contest held during the short course. Archie Bailey, Jr., recently underwent a throat operation, and Jacob Sisk, the fourth member of the team, was in an automobile accident losing several teeth. Reports are that both boys are making satisfactory progress toward recovery. They have our best wishes and sympathy as such was disappointing to their coach as well as to the team members themselves. Blacksburg, be on the look-out for our Rappahannock team in ’54. • * * * I note Ned Johnson, Jr., being quoted in June issue of Country Gentleman. Glad the editor of a hot little magazine is recognizing some of Rappahannock’s talent and foresight. * * * * Time to begin thinking about 1954 lamb crop. Get this year’s crop to market 'by end of this month. Drench the ewes while you have them up, then shift to new pasture every two to three (See RAPP-CHATS, page 8) CELEBRATES BIRTHDAY At two o’clock Saturday afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Ben H. Weddle entertained at a birthday party in honor of their son, Jeff Weddle, who has reached the “ripe ole age” of one year. Those present at the party were Mrs. H. H.

Paul Thompson and daughter, Ann Rodes, Mrs. Allen McLearan and daughter, Marie and son, Allen and Mrs. Ralph Gibbs both of Madison.

DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia (in advance) RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia Entered a $2.00 a year Football nterest Grows “Put my name down at the top of he list,” came instructions by telephone last week as soon as the county paper had carried the announcement that there was interest about the county in getting a football team for high school. “It’s a fine thing,” said the man who wished to top the list, “ and there’s excellent material in the county to work up a good football team. I’m all for it.” Expressions of interest like this are a good sign. Of course, work has to begin soon; here it is, almost July, the summer half gone, and those uniforms and football equipment must be on hand by the last week in August to have them ready for the high school opening the first of September. It’s Box Rent Now— An irate citizen, with his feathers decidedly, ruffled, requested his county newspaper to voice his indignation editorially. His ire was on edge because he discovered his post office box rent had gone up in price over 300%! “I thought the people voted for economy last fall,” he fumed. “I didn’t know this was the way to get it!” This editorial expression will be a little difficult, since the writer was not listed among those who “wanted a change.” However, the majority rules, and a “change” is what we have. Part of the “novus ordo seclorom” seems to be a hike in post office box rent. Being one of those “has-been” Democrats, we're amused at the howl. Last year at this time, any wrong or ill-doing was entirely the fault of those “narsty Democrats.” The Republicans are in power now (in case you hadn’t heard), and, since 6-million more people wanted a “change” than those who didn’t: well, it looks like time to say, “You buttered your bread, now lie in it.” Don’t begrudge the poor ole’ government its 30-plus per cent increase in post office box rent. They’ve got to get money from somewhere.

Willis Robertson IMPLICATIONS OF TRUCE ARE CAUSE FOR CONCERN It is my firm conviction that we could have won a military victory in Korea under General Van Fleet in the late Summer and early Fall of 1951. But, partly because our allies would not support a necessary blockade of China nor agree to the bombing of bases across the Yalu and partly for other reasons which have not yet been fully disclosed, we and our allies agreed to stop the fighting and start discussing an armistice without mentioning the proposal to our Field Commander, General Van FlefctHe testified before our Appropriations Committee that the first he knew of the matter was when he received the order to stop fighting. And General Van Fleet added that at that time the Communists were at their lowest ebb has just voted itself a $3000 taxexempt living expense, and some one has to pay for those three new Cadillacs for the Speaker and the majority and minority leaders. Maybe we’d better not do too much complaining about the post offices. Gossip tells us that all but four post offices in Madison county are slated to be closed. Star Routes are cheaper to operate, so “they” say. Maybe if we keep real quiet in Rappahannock, our post offices will be left here, at least, even if the box rents do go up over 300 per cent.

Since our allies still refuse to cooperate for a military vistory and since a program of going it alone in Korea would have involved for us such tragic casualties no one should criticize President Eisenhower for accepting the lesser of two serious consequences. While the Communists have finally yielded on the issue of repatriation of prisoners, which was never more than a subterfuge to continue negotiations, no one should minimize the adverse effect of this truce upon our prestige either in the Orient or in Europe. We must accept the humiliating fact that in Kroea we have fought a war which we did not win. The terrific assault recently made primarily upon the sector held by South Koreans evidently was to prove to the Orient and to the world that an armistice was finally signed in Korea the Communists were winning and that the free nations of the world were no longer willing to accept the casualties and hardships involved. The broad implications of that decision may he iar-reaching. Syngman Rhee and all South Koreans know only too well that acceptance of the pending armistice terms by no means settles the issue which Rhee said was the reason for our participation in the Korean conflict, namely, to protect those who wish to he free from the slavery of Communism and the overriding of those moral and ethical principles which we call the Christian religion. If the overall efect of that type of settlement on our part is to create the sentiment in the Orient that the Christian members of United Nations are so permeated with materialism that they will make only a half-hearted fight against the evil of Communism the entire Orient may turn toward the Communists. With that victory the Politburo will then concentrate upon the spirit of materialism among our European allies. They will offer to trade with them, holding out the prospects of peace, and will say in effect, why sacrifice your standard of living by a continuation of an WASHINGTON THEATRE Shows: 7:15 and 9:00 P.M.

Lots of people think so when they have to pay $20 for a bottle of pills— especially when they remember that a bottle of cough syrup used to cost half a dollar. What are the facts? The most expensive medicines are usually most economical in the lung run. For example, 25 years ago, medicines used for pneumonia tost only a dollar or two. But one out of three patients with pneumonia died; those who survived spent four to eight weeks in bed. With modern medicines, the pneumonia patient usually gets well in a week or ten days; and more than 90 per cent of the patients survive. Surely, today’s medicines for penumonia are a bargain if there ever was one. When you hear that the so-called “miracle drugs** are expensive, remember that they cost far less than an. Operation or lfiig weeks in a hospital—to any; nothing of the countless lives th#y have sanedL The manufacture of these drugs requires highly skilled tabor, prolonged research and complicated equipment—-all of which is expensive. But when you consider what modern drugs «an do for yop, you will agree they are an investment in better health and longer life. opposiT£ park theatre - phone 447 - -rrom v V A You'll bo moon *bot4 wboo not 4heotio THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN HOUSE PAINT!
