VOLUME 4 — NO. 44 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 3, 1953 12.00 PER YEAS ■ 111 \ 1 &■ wu L mmjr m^r m ■ » Proposed Regional Home For Aged A small but representative group was present on Thursday night, Aug. 27, when John L. Bruner spoke on the proposed cooperative hospital for the aged and chronically ill. Mr. Bruner is Chief of the Bureau of Hospitalization and Homes for Adults in the Virginia State Department of Welfare. He was able to give the group interesting and worthwhile information about the growing need for , vmes for the aged and chronically ill in this state as well as in thp rest *of the nation. Mr. Bruner told how plans for the home had originated and fsaid that it would be patterned after fthe unique Patrick Henry Hospital in ■Warwick County which is operating iso successfully, ft was pointed out ■that this type of institution offered ■a better program than the district ■homes because it provides long term Icare for chronic cases and convalesEcent cases as well as for the aged and ■also makes available space for private ■patients as well as those whose exIpenses are paid by the counties. This ■removes the stigma attached to ■almshouses and gets more public inI terest. While cronic cases can i hardly be cared for in their own homes and need hospital facilities, most cannot afford private nursing home care. Many are being cared for in general hospitals at great expense to the counties. The rates in-a home such as is contemplated for this area would be within reach of people of moderate circumstances. Operating costs are estimated as possibly $2.00 to $2.50 a day per patient for participating counties. A discussion followed Mr. Bruner’s talk and since it was felt that "the project was worth further investigation a committee was . appointed with representatives from the Board of Supervisors, Ministerial Association, Health Department, and Welfare Board. The committee wll represent Rappahannock 'County and will be considered a branch of the District Committee. From, time to time it will present to the county further informa‘ tion about the project Firemen Honor Ladies Auxiliary At Picnic Clad in white aprons and confident smiles, the firemen of the Rappahannock Fire Department served a picnic dinner to the honorees, the Ladies Auxiliary and other guests, on Friday evening August 28. Ned Jones offered the invocation. Master of ceremonies, William Moffett, welcomed the guests and called upon George Davis to introduce the distinguished guests who included in their ranks, Tom Frost, Warrenton; representatives from the fire companies of Amissville; Culpeper, Lui ray; Warrenton; and Front Royal. ! Ladies Auxiliary representatives from , Amissville and Culpeper. Following the picnic supper, J. Everett Will, of Luray, president of h«t»' Virginia Firemen’s Association, presented an enthusiastic account of he far-reaching working of firemen’s rganizations in Virginia; Whenever the order of the day is eversed, as it was by the be-aproned iremen, there’s always a wealth of idding to rise in the aftermath. For instance, from reliable sources we hear (sorrowfully) that the food inspectors (self-appointed) in the kitchen refused to pass a certain cake and promptly ate it all themselves— ''‘too good for mere guests.” Jesting aside, the picnic was an excellent example of what cooperation and determination can reap. Mrs. Ben Cox, president of the Ladies Auxiliary, expressed the sentiments of the over one hundred persons resent, when she suggested a rising ote of thanks to the firemen in apreciation of their work and worry. Miss Irene Keyser is visiting her >ter and family in Louisa. MEWS SCHEDULE FOR NEXT WEEK Tuesday, Sept. 8-4*lanning meeting beginning at 10:00 a.m. at Fire House in Washington, Wed., Sept. 9—Amissville H D at Mrs. Less Walter’s at 2 p.m. Thurs., Sept. 10—F. T. Valley H D club at Mrs. Lester Yates’ at 2 p.m. According to the Dietary Survey conducted in Rappahannock, only 29% ate one serving of citrus fruits, tomatoes or raw cabbage a day. Our best home grown source of this vitamin C is surely tomatoes. Early symptons of this lack is swollen gums found in large number of children. You homemakers will need to can every available tomato this year. Can 30 quarts per person. Why so many? This gives enough to serve them at least lour times a week, after the fresh ones are gone. U>id pack is best. Heat ana air destroys vitamin C. The best flavor, color and food value comes from those packed cold into clean jars and processed in boiling water to cover. Pints, 25 minutes and quarts, 35 minutes. Peel red, ripe, firm, tomatoes, drop directly into jars, press down so jar is full of tomatoes and juice, add salt to season, seal and process. Tomato juice is good canned or frozen. Wash red ripe tomatoes, cut up, mash a few to get some juice nd heat in a covered pan just long enough to get them soft and drive out air. Strain through sieve or food mill, season with salt, re-heat just to boiling point, pour into clean hot jars and process 5 minutes. For freezing—After straining juice, chill it and pour at once into moisture and air proof containers. Seal and freeze at once.

A retired teacher, Miss Susie taught school 51 years, 49 of them in her native Culpeper county. During the past ten years, when she was an invalid, the esteem with which she was held was evidenced in the way “her children” whom she had taught would visit her. Daughter of Bruce William Stringfellow and Sallie Broadus Stringfellow, Miss Susie was born at “Ashleigh,” in Culpeper county. She is survived by a brother, B. W. Stringfellow, three sisters: Miss Lucy A. Stringfellow, Mrs. Aubrey Bowie, and Mrs. Felix Maddox, Jr. Among the surviving nephews and nieces are Bruce S. Bowie, Miss Lucy Catherine Bowie, andMiss Burma Bowie; and Mrs. Julian Updike and Miss Susan J. Stringfellow of Front Royal. Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon, 4 o’clock, in Fairview cemetery, Culpeper, with the Rev. W. Franklin Cale officiating. Over 200 Attend Johnson Family Reunion As proof of the clan’s hardiness, over 200 of the “Red Oak Johnsons” survived the terrific heat a-top the mountain in attendance at the family's annual reunion, Sunday, August 30. Gathering from New York to Norfolk, clan members heard E. E. Johnson, attorney of Culpeper, make the speech of the afternoon. Proving that the dinner had been plentiful, the speaker fell through the platform. Fortunately, he was not hurt. E. E. Johnson, as president of the clan for the past .two years, presided over the election of officers. Those named were C. E. Johnson, Jr., of Sperryville, president; Raymond Johnson of Woodville and William H. Johnson of Culpeper, vice-presidents; and Mrs. R. M. Johnson of Woodville, secretary-treasurer. Highlighting the afternoon was the distribution of the beginnings of the family genealogy. Following this, cousins visited and, by request, there was a swapping of yarns, some of them family folklore and some reminiscences. The meeting, date for next year, as well as time and place, was left to a committee. It was reported that if the ladies had anything to do with it, the location would not be the top of Red Oak Mountain! The broiling sun and lack of shade got the ladies' spirits as damp as the gentlemen’s shirts. The men of the family are sentimental about the location. The place of the family gathering for the past three years, a-top the Red Oak, is the original grant of land bought by William Johnson 1 in 1764. The deed of grant was written on sheep-skin and is in the possession of William H. Johnson of Culpeper. The men view with pride that the land has been in the family for close to 200 years. (The ladies still think it’s hot up there at the Fire Tower.) When asked what the family seemed famous for, one member of the clan said, “Well, first I’d say healthy appetites. Second, I guess we are marked by bald heads.” It was then suggested by a questioner that maybe the third family marking could be a keen snese of humor. The suggestion was accepted. The clan member then added that a fourth family mark might be an attitude toward work. “They seem to consider it a necessary evil,” he said, but out-of-family comment was that the family members appear to be conscientious about attending the ‘necessary evil.’ CANASTA PARTY Miss Betty Johnson entertained at a Canasta Party on Thursday evening. Those invited were Edna Yates Schaefer, Patsy Frazier, Peachy • Lyne, Patsy Reeve, Elizabeth Smith, and her house guest, Margy Winston, Nancy Brown, Carolyn Turner, Evelyn Tyler Miller, and Frances Smith. Patsy Frazier won high score prize, Elizabeth Smith, Bingo; and the low prize went to Miss Winston. YOUTH FELLOWSHIP The Youth Fellowship was entertained Thursday, August 27th by Paula Miller.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 Publishe* LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) The Leeway Pony Rides An activity of much interest and importance to the horse-minded youngsters of Rappahannock and adjoining Counties occurred at the Leeway Farm on Saturday, August 22. The Leeway Pony Rides got under way, with a good turn-out of yOung riders and riding-hopefuls in attendance. Some seventy-odd persons, about half of them youngsters all set to ride, gathered at the riding enclosure to hear the preliminaries of an interesting riding program, and to take a pony ride, as well. At the invitation of a member of the Sponsoring Committee of the Rappahannock Hunt, headed by Mr. and Mrs. Leon T. Greeaway, I was called upon to give some basic riding advice to this happy group of young, enthusiastic riding prospects. What a privilege it was to me, an old-timer of the saddle, to encourage these young riders in their endeavor to learn all that goes with good riding, the little skills in horse-handling that make up good horsemanship and produce good riders; the responsive eagerness to learn those things that cause a pony or horse to do what the rider wants done (elementary horsemastership) ; and the desire to compete on a friendly basis with other riders of equivalent training (Sportsmanship). All of this will lead eventually to the full enjoyment of a healthy and relaxing sport that is second to none in tangible value toward the physical, mental, and sociable development of A the youth we seek to help. For providing this rare opportunity to youngsters to undertake and enjoy the benefits afforded by association with horse, field and hound activities, the Sponsoring Committee deserves much credit and commendation To recall a pertinent adage, “ A Partnership 'tween Horse and Man yields more than satisfaction.” J.

The rest of us Virginians are just plain sweatin’__„__ o o o They tell me this heat broke a NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC Notice is hereby given to the public that the Virginia Telephone & Telegraph Company, on August 17, 1953, (filed with the State Corporation Commission an application for authority to apply and charge the standard intra-state toll rates within its territory; to charge 10c for local calls from pay-stations; and to adjust charges for moves, changes, restorals and service connection charges. It is estimated that these changes will increase the gross revenues of the Company by approximately $33,000 per year, or a net of approximately $15,500 per year. The proposed changes are to become effective on and after September 21, 1953, except that the 10c charge for local calls from paystations will be effective as soon after September 21, 1953 as changes in the coin boxes can be made. Information as to the proposed changes may be obtained from the office of the State Corporation Commission, or from any business office of the Company. STATE CORPORATION COMMISSION T2-year record. As far as I’m concerned, the weather-man can postpone the next heat wave for another 72 years; then I won’t be here to endure it. If people hadn’t become so smart and made so much progress, we wouldn’t have to be hot; at least, that’s what some scientist said recently. He advanced the theory that the destroying of trees caused this excessive heat. His explanation was over my head, but he said something afbout trees breathing in carbon dioxide and giving off oxygen while animals— including the human variety — breathe in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. The destroying of trees in such wholesale slaughter conducted by “civilized man” has got the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide off kilter (so the fellow said) and that’s why it’s been so hot. I’m gtting ready to subscribe to a wholehearted program of tree-planting. Not that I understand any of the scientist’s lecture, but if there’s any chance that this humid weather can be prevented, I subscribe and promise full co-operation. A news story tells of the tragedy of this terrific heat in a rabibitry. After losing one of the prettiest mama-rabbits Vith heat exhaustion, a daily program had to be set up. The rabbit hutches had to be topped with gunny-sacks and a layer of straw; about four times a day the caretaker went around with a hose and sprinkled, keeping the straw roofs wet. It saved the rest of the rabbits. When the weather man predicted that it MAY be Friday before any rain could bring relief, the groans were long and loud. (Uy the way: this paper is printed with metal type; sweat is salty; any blurs and smears you see are caused by corrosion.) o o o It’s been 101° in the print shop for four days straight. Remembering that the carcass is only 98.6° on the interior, we’re considering crawling inside to^ cool off. Without a bit of effort I was feeling real sorry for myself— having to work in all this heat in order to give the money to somebody else just to pay miserable old bills—when suddenly I remembered: school starts today! Those poor children — and the pitiful teachers! Think what a schoolroom can be in this weather with thirty-or-more kids packed into desks. They’ve got to be dressed, where all summer they could run around the house and yard with only enough clothing to meet the letter of the law. Now they’re stopped up in a stuffy room with a crowd of body heat. The teach Woodville News Notes Hiss Lucy Mason of Charleston, West Virginia Was dinner guest on Wednesday of Miss Annie Stephenson.

This meant the meticulous ordering of each day. Proper nutrition, exercise, and rest werfc perfectly balanced. Physical constitution, age, and even the seasons of the year were considered. For a man of affairs, such a regimen is out of the question. When your work is done, you play and exercise when you can. But this little you can do. See your family physician at least once a year. Follow his advice. In case medication is required, we are prepared to serve you, promptly and economically.
