In Rappahannock County, the teachers will assemble for work in the schools on that day, and in Warren County, the teachers will report for duty on the following day, Tuesday, September 1. The principals of all schools and teachers of one-room schools will meet at the Warren County Court House for preliminary planning on Mbnday, August 31, at 1:30 p.m. (See SCHOOLS, page 4) County Home By Elizabeth Fuss With peaches, lima beans, corn and other fruits and vegetables plentiful in home gardens, the following suggestions are offered: Pointers to keep the freshness in foods you freese: 1. Heat all vegetables carefully before you package. Blanch a pound, no more, in about 4 quarts of boiling water. Keep heat high. Cover and start timing. When time is up, plunge into icy water. Too much heat destroys vitamins and makes vegetables mushy. Drain, then package and freeze. 2. Fruits such as peaches and apples turn dark in the air. To keep their color bright potjr Vzcup syrup to which citric or ascorbic acid has been added into container. , Peel one peach at a time and slice right into syrup. Press down fruit, cover with more syrup. Leave %inch head space in pints and 1 inch in quarts. 3. To keep top fruit bright, crumple a piece of freezer paper and lay on top of sliced peaches, cover container, and paper will push floaters down under syrup. 4. Stir ascorbic or citric acid into cold sugar syrup just before you use it. Mix gently to prevent air bubbles. 5. To get a head start, make syrup the day before you package fruit. Chill in refrigerator. Most fruits taste better with a 40% syrup: 3 cups sugar dissolved in 4 cups water. Hints on Freezing Poaches A request has been made that some hints on freezing peaches be given. See H-D NEWS, Page 8 “Red Oak-Johnsons” Meet For Family Re-Union Fifth Sunday, August 30, has 'been set by the “Red Oak Johnson” as family gathering day. Members of the clan gather annually at the fire tower on Red Oak mountain, near Woodville, to greet their cousins, meet the new in-laws, and enjoy the eating contest. A feature of this year’s re-union will be distribution of copies of the beginning of a collected history of the family. In a stage described as “unfinished,” the history is an attempt to assemble a genealogy whereby the members of the clan can try to keep up with what kin who is to who. REYNOLDS MEMORIAL HOLD MEMBERS' DINNER, AUG. 21 AH members of Reynolds Memorial Baptist church, Sperryville, (will gather for a covered-dish supper Friday evening, August 21, at 6.30 p.m. Children’s Riding Classes Hold “Pony Parties” _ At leeway Farm The RappahannoSk Hunt, as an educational program, will sponsor a series of Pony Rides and Horsemanship Classes at Leeway Farm beginning Saturday, August 22, at 2:30 in the afternoon.

There is no fee charged and light refreshments will <be served. The Rappahannock Hunt has requested that all children interested in horses and hunting will be present at the Pony Parties and take part in the riding. RAPP - GHATS By: W. H. Lyne County Agent laaaaiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa It somehow seems a bit odd to read of a drought raising the yield of any crop much less corn. The Rappahannock News is growing so fast just guess they can’t think in terms of a reduction in yield of anything! Dig! Dig! Dig! Quit kidding me, Bruce, and I’ll stop too, or was that lame stool offered as a token of peace? * * * Prof. A. H. Teske advised last month for our orchardists to be on the lookout about now for heavy infestation of leaf roller in our apple orchards. Fact is, Teske agreed at that tme to come back to see how serious this expected outbreak would be and he is coming tomorrow. Better take a good look at your orchard yourself as our previous inspections have revealed quite different situations, what may be a good worthwhile spray for one orchard may be a needless expenditure in another. Be at the Court House at 8 o’clock tomorrow night to hear what friend Teske has to say. Also you might want to get more size on your apples now that the drought has been partially broken. Stop-Drop sprays may help you do this which subject Mr. Teske will also cover in his discussion. * * * Some of our Swine producers may ■be interested in seeing how a Feeder Pig Sale is conducted. If so the Second Annual Feeder Pig Sale will get underway at two o’clock tomorrow afternoon at the Orange Livestock Market. This sale is put on by the farmers of the area. AUXILIARY MEETING The Sperryville Fire Auxiliary will meet Monday, August 24 at 8 o’clock in the Sperryville School. 4-H‘er» Attend Camp at Powell's Fort 1st Row, left to right: Ginger Russell, Mary Lou Davis, Frances Walker, Peachey Lyne, Carolyn Turner, Nancy Brown, Judy Black, Dolly Smith, Myrla Ann Updike* Eleanor Atkins. 2nd row: Lucy Lftlard, Holly Updike, Paula Miller, Janet Lillard, Faye Black, Caroletta Gough, Shirley Lillard, Cathy Laihg, Shipley Smoot, Carol Rowzie, and Pat Porter. Boys, left to right: Bucky Kuhn, Mr. Weddle, Arthur Smoot, J. W. Brown, Johnnie Jenkins, Elmer Foster, Elwood Wines, Miss Fuss, Billy Nicholson, Mr. Heltzel, John Turner, Jackie Rutherford, Billy Wines, and Walter B. Kilhv. The Rappahannock 4-H’ers made a fine showing at Camp in Powers Fort, August 3-8. This is an annual affair for many of the club members. Approximately one hundred 4-H’ers from Clark, Warren, Page and Rappahannock Counties combined to form 3 tribes which included both boys and girls. These tribes compete with one another in. sports and other activities. The cabins are arranged in two sections, one area for the boys and one for the girls. Handicraft and Nature Study Gasses took most of the time before lunch, hut there was always time for a swim in the pool. In the afternoon sports and swimming under the watchful eye of a qualified life guard were the order of the day. Special swimming instructions were given to the children who were unable to swim. A good many "Rocks" learned to be quite at ease in the water before the end of the week. The campers always looked forward to dancing in the evening after vespers and a camp fire program. The expense for the week was a $9 registration fee which included some mighty tasty food. The cash expense may be reduced to $6 by taking $3 worth of food. Most of the children who attended camp will agree that they have learned a good deal in addition to having a week of fellowship and recreation.

Though the county seemed to escape most of the ill effects of the electrical storm, the lightening still took its toll. J. Hill O'Bannon’s loss of three milk cows and a 600 pound calf was the greatest reported in the county. Peaches in Etlan were hit badly by the hail accompanying the storm. In comparison with the damage in adjoining counties of Fauquier and Culpeper who caught the bulk of the electrical storm, Rappahannock fared reasonably well. Cemetery Association Elects Committee The Sperryville Cemetery Association met at the VFW hall Monday evening with a large number of interested persons attending. A committee was elected to make recommendations to Judge Rayner V. Snead in appointment of trustees for the association.

Publish** DIAL RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) — $2.00 a year Teacher Shortage If it is any consolation, Rappahannock is not by itself in havng trouble getting teachers for the public schools. On the theory that “misery loves company,” the superintendents of schools can get together and hold a good tale-of-woe party. Even Fairfax county, usually spoken of as “teachers’ heaven” because of the far-superior salaries paid there, is lacking 46 grade teachers, according to a report last week. A Richmond newspaper recently tried to answer why there are no teachers. The first hue and cry, as usual, was that' of poor pay, and the lack of graduates from teachers’ colleges. The general answer is that the profession of teaching is not made attractive to young people seeking their niche inlife. Another answer lies in what is termed “the times that is, the alarming trend of the day for young people to seek an “easy living,” and the teaching business is classified^ as missionary work. There has to be a form of consecration in teachers, and, like religious workers, the spiritual urge to serve mankind doesn’t strike large numbers. In Rappahannock it is more difficult to get teachers because of the lack of living quarters. Boarding a teacher can tie a housewife down and the inconvenience is not worth the smal profit, seems to be the general opinion expressed. Commuting from a neighboring town is expensive. Then, too, entertainment like movies and concerts and things most teachers enjoy are not to be had in rural communities, so the teachers-seek jobs in or near cities. It has been found in the past that after the teachers get to Rappahannock they enjoy their work, the children, and the people, since the county has a friendliness to mark its character; but the big problem is to get the teachers to come. The Time Has Come / the Walras uid Mrs. Mary Cain has lost a round in tier battle against the government. She’s the lady down in Mississippi who called the Social Security tax *‘un-A merican, un-Constitutional, illegal, and immoral.” When a United State marshal padlocked the door of her newspaper plan, she cut off the lock with a hack saw and mailed it tack to the marshal. She refused to pay the tax, stating that she had the right to provide for her own old age as she saw fit and did not want any government dictating to her as to how she must do it. A j udge has ruled now that she must pay the Social Security tax. Mrs. Cain says that he ruled, not on a basis of right or wrong, but on what she feels was an erroneous judgment of the scope of a previous Supreme Court ruling. One can’t help but admire Mrs. Cain. She is holding out as a believer in liberty. Most of us, cowardly inert, say "what’s the use; you can’t buck the powers-that-be” and go on and pay every new tax soaked on us. This Social Security does irk. No matter how good old-age insurance is, you don’t like to have it forced on you. Then, too, that word “security” is inclined to put an ironic twist to one’s grin; oh-yeah, it’s as "secure” as Congress decides it is; what guarantee have you that your money isn’t being poured down a rathole? I’d feel better if they would deposit my cash in some bank or with some insurance company—we know they can’t pull any crooked deals;, they have to be bonded and law requires that they stick by an agreement. '--©-Q-©---1There should be some way to get these astronomers to predict showers of meteors for some other time than: “best visible from midnight to 3:30.” How can a fellow stay up that late to see them? Besides, if you lie out in the yard on a blanket—and there’s no use being uncomfortable—how can you manage to stay awake waiting for the shooting stars? It seems the planet Mercury is in perihelion—'that is, it’s as near the sun as it ever gets, or about 28,550,000 miles, instead of 43,350,000 miles, as it is in aphelion. Mercury’s mean distance from us is 93,000,000 miles and its diameter is 3,100 miles. Those astronomers are mighty smart and they can give out a lot of fancy information, but I still don’t see how we working people can stay up all - night to see meteors. I’m going to postpone my star-gazing until the smart-boys can time shootng stars before midnight. By he way, don’t let that tale about Mercury worry you too much. If you have never seen the planet Mercury, you are not by yourself; I’ll bet my grandfather never saw it, either, and he lived to a ripe old age. o o o Dog-days were over last week. Some folks predicted that the drought " would not be relieved until after dogdays. Somebody else told me that the rain came because the Baptists at Amissville had a big afl-day-dinnerwith-meeting-on-the-grounds. They were celebrating the church’s 65th —*■ birthday. Nothing brings on rain, so I’m told, like a church meeting with everybody in Sunday clothes and getting ready to eat out-doors.

The success resulting from vigorous public health measures, particularly in the last quarter century, is impressive. At the beginning of the century, tuberculosis led the list of diseases as the most frequent cause of death. Today it has dropped to seventh place. There is no reason why it should not drop completely from the list of important causes of death. This splendid record has resulted from the combined efforts of many agencies. An enlightened public opinion with respect to the value of the physician’s services has contributed immeasurably. Have that long-delayed physical examination today. We are prescription specialists.

THIS SEEDER RAYS FOR ITSELF IN SEED SAVED EVERY 50 ACRES FOR EXAMPLE Because the Brillion Sure-Stand Seeding Method helps more seed to germinate and grow, you get a better stand with half or less the usual amount (and cost) of seed Cut your seed cost in half with this BriDion Sura-Stand Seeder ORDINARY seeding methods scatter or bury several times the amount of seed needed for a good stand. Seeding too deejif, or in a lumpy seedbed . . . cuts down germination . . . wastes good seed. The Brillion Sure-Stand Seeder helps you get what you pay for in seed . . . a high percent of germination. It places the right amount of seed within the top half inch of soil, in a well prepared seedbed where more of it can germinate. The front roller crushes lumps ahead of the seeder; the seeder meters out the seeds required for a good stand; and the rear roller gently firms the soil for fast and sure germina tion. All of this is done in one operation. The Brillion Sure-Stand seeds grass and legumes at the same time Comes in three sizes: 10'8", 8', and 5 4 rolling width. Every year can be "a good grass year* with a Brillion Sure-Stand Grass Seeder. Thousands of farmers have paid for their Sure-Stands with the seed saved on only two days’ use.

We’ll bet it gave you a different slant on life, whether it brightened a part of your house or gave a child’s toy a colorful look. To help make your life brighter—and easier—today’s paints come in every tint and hue of the rainbow. Best of all, the modem miracle paints come to you ready to use. America’s paint industry and the American Can Company virtually grew up together. The paint companies worked out formulas for ready-mixed paints that do just about any special job you have in mind. Meanwhile, Canco developed practical leak-proof containers, with their now familiar “double-clinch” covers, to keep paint fresh during shipping and storage, until you are ready to use it. New plants and whole new industries were able to get started when Canco developed the right container for readymixed paints. This meant new and better jobs, and a higher level of prosperity for us all. Yes, by making better cans—not only for paints but for just about everything you can think of—Canco been able to help all Americans eat better, live better and work better. We can be proud of such teamwork between our people and our business enterprises. That’s what makes America such a satisfying country to live and work in. And it promises a future— “bright as paint”—for us all. AMERICAN CAN COMPANY <£& CONTAINERS ... to help people live better

Main Street FRONT ROYAL H-D NEWS, from PagTT (Continued from page i) Select tree-ripened free-stone peaches at just the right stage for eating. Sort peaches carefully. Remove those that are over ripe and bruised. The good parts of these may be made up into jam or fruit butters. Peaches, like other fruits, may be jacked with dry sugar or in a sugar syrup. If you use syrup, you’ll need about 3 gallons for a bushel of mediumsized peaches. To keep peaches from darkening you can use a citric acid dip betoie packing in syrup or dry sugar. Step* in Freezing Peachea 1. Dip fully ripe, sound peachea about 15-30 seconds in boiling water to loose skins. The riper the fruit, the less scalding needed. 2. Chill peaches quickly in cold water lor 15-30 seconds. This stops the cooking action. 3. Pit peaches and slip peel from halves. Cut in sections. 4. Place fruit at once into citric dip to prevent darkening for 1-2 minutes. Use y2-teaspoon citric acid dissolved in 1 quart of water or use ascorbic acid. 5. With citric acid: pack 1 part by weight of sugar to 3-4 parts by weight of fruit (1 cup sugar to 4Vi-6 cups fruit); or in syrup to cover (3 cups sugar to 4 cups water). With ascorbic acid ^ put peaches directly with cold sugar syrup to which has been added Vi teaspoon ascorbic acid for each 1-1 Vi cups syrup. Wipe inside edges of liner clean and dry, press out air and seal. Place filled labeled containers in refrigerator to keep cold until all are ready to go into freezer. Freeze. As soon as peaches are frozen, store at 0-degrees F., or lower. For freezing other foods, contact my office for bulletins on freezing fruits and vegetables. Dairy Cow Sold for $1550 How would you like to have a dairy cow like Floradale Demple Gay Kite (shown above) that produced 571 pounds of butterfat as a two-year-old and sold in the National Holstein Convention Sale this year for $1550.00? To be sure not many of us could pay such money for a single cow; however, any local farmer who is a member of the Rappahannock Artificial Breeding Association can get a half sister for seven dollars, the price of a service fee on her sire, Bowmont Decender Demple King. Gordon Thornhill, (tel. Sperryville-3410) technician for the local association, reports the following daiirymen have bred cows to King and have about a fifty-fifty chance of getting a half-sister: W. H. Wood, Jr., Amissville; Glen Williams, Flint Hill; and Woodrow Coughlin, Castleton. Rappahannock Dairy cow owners who haven’t already become members of the local Breeding Association and wish to take advantage of this opportunity should contact either Gordon Thornhill, or G. M. Black, secretary of the association, Sperryville (tel. 3541). TEACHERS (Continued from page 1) Washington; Miss Della Hitt, Sperryville. (vacancy). Flint Hill Elementary School Mrs. Mary K.
