PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNIh At Waahington. Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) --— $2.00 a year Dear Mr. Weatherman: Mr. Weatherman Republican Washington, D. C. Dear Sir: My holler is feeble, but here it is: “Uncle!” I’ve had enough. I know when I’m licked. I know you Republicans are in charge now; please forgive me for voting the Democratic ticket. In my misguided way, I thought I was right. I still think the same, but this heat has me defeated. If you’ll just stop predicting more of this 90° weather, I’ll try very hard to be better. I'll ask Arthur Miller not to raise the post office box rent again in order to worry Lewis Turner. I’ll even try to convince Lucio Kilby that I have no personal grudge against him whenever I poke a little fun at you Republicans. After all, you Republicans have to take the blame for everything that goes wrong now, and where, surely, you can see you’ve made a few minor mistakes, this hotweather seige you seem to have carried a bit too far! We’ve endured this first 12 days with patience. After all, we Democrats realized that you were making your fellow Republicans suffer with us, but enough is enough! We’re even beginning to pity the Republicans now! Please, Mr. Weatherman, I realize you can’t go back on your prediction of the next five days of humid h—, but couldn’t you take pity and give us a relief after the five days are up? Penitently and imploringly Yours, The Perspiring Editor. Newbill Miller Honored At V.P.I. Short Course By Leli* Gentry ^ Caroletta Gough, Betty Rutherford, Kelly Updike, John Turner, and Lelia Gentry were Rappahannock County’s delegation to State 4-H Short Course, held last week at V.P.I. This delegation joined Greene, Culpeper, Madison, and Louisa for the trip to Blacksburg. NewbiU Miller, our All-Star, was already there, having attended the All-Star Conference the week-end before. We arrived Monday evening, June 22, and after registering and supper, we attended our first assembly.

Exchange plan, and Social Dancing. We also took song leadership, club plans, 4-H activities, and tips for toppers, a class in keeping accurate records for winning contests. The boys also had livestock classes. Tuesday morning, at assembly, W. H. Daughtrey of V.P.I. talked on “The Growth and Development of 4-H Club Work in Virginia.” He showed slides, one a copy of one of the pictures in our special 4-H issue. We were again proud of our winners of the past. That evening Betty Rutherford attended elimination for the Share the Fun program; Kelly Updike entered livestock judging; and the remaining delegates toured the campus. After vespers and game hour (which were held every night), we attended the All Star program. Newbill Miller took part in the program and short play, “The Return Home.” On Wednesday we followed much the same schedule except the girls attended the state contest in Home Improvement. Almost all state awards are made during Short Course and it is quite thrilling to see someone you have talked to or worked with be called up to get a certificate of achievement.

James Gibbs of Scotland wort his kilts; and although Sven Lundgren, Sweden, spoke little English his speech had been translated and was read to us. Thursday was wonderfully exciting for the Rappahannock delegates, for the state nominating chose Newbill Miller as candidate for First Vice President of Short Course! Lelia Gentry presented his qualifications to the audience. Voting took place that afternoon. Most candidates had posters and promises—as usual. No one knew who would get the Vote until, next day when we were thrilled to see Newbill led onto the stage to be installed in his office of First Vice President of the 1954 Virginia State Short Course. Thursday night we were enter* tained by top 4-H talent in the Share - the - Fun program. Eric Lund of radio station MLVA, in Lynchburg, was again master of ceremonies. We were sorry Betty was eliminated but there were some really professional quality acts and we enjoyed it very much. On Friday we attended the Short Course Tea. After supper the entire Short Course gathered for the most beautiful and impressive event of the week, the All Star Ceremonial, at which new members are called. This is held on the drill field. Each county group sits behind a card with the county’s name. These formed a huge circle, into which the All Stars marched, singing. Scouts are sent out to call new members. Only one boy and one girl from most counties may be called. No one knows who will be chosen. One of the first boys to be led before the big chief was Kelly Updike. Soon, Lelia Gentry was called also. How do you feel when the great honor is bestowed upon you? There will never be words to express it. As the chief asks, ‘<Wbom bring you here?” and the scout gives your name, the feeling is like nothing you ever felt before. I am sure I shall not have this feeling again for a long time, perhaps never. You are led to face an All-Star, pinned with a red rose, and accepted into the organization after initiation. For the first time since the 4-H clubs have been re-organized, this county has had both a boy and a girl All Star and a Short Course officer!

Many industries have made real progress in accident prevention, but our homes continue to produce minor and major injuries on an everincreasing scale. In spite of every precaution, accidents will occur. When the "ounce of prevention" fails, it is wise, to have "the pound of cure" ready and at hand.
