VOLUME 4 — NUMBER 47 WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 24, 1953 00-Bed Hospital Meets feeds, Committee Says On September 21 county representatives attended a meeting in Fredericksburg called by the Committee studying plans for a regional hospital for the aged and chronically ill in this section of the state. The activities taking place in the various counties during the summer were reviewed and it was found that nine counties were .definitely interested in participating Wn*’ the facility and several other ^counties had given it some consideration but had not made a decision. One of the problems faced by the group was a decision as to the size of the roposed facility. After reviewing 4acfs and figures about the number of aged in the population the group decided that a 100 bed hospital would meet their needs. A committee was named to consult architects about the cost of constructing the building. The committee will also look into building sites and will have the power to report back to he various counties. When this report is received each county will know what contribution will be necessary. ———-——--—. Bloodmobile To Visit County, October 14 The Red Cross Bloodmobile wilt be at Reynold’s Memorial Baptist church on Wednesday, October 14, from 12 on to 6 p.m. Rappahannock county’s uota is 150 pints.

When Mr. Weakley first began his job with the Highway Department, he worked with a team of horses scrapping and dragging the roads. Then for twelve months he was a helper. Transferred to the Rappahahnoek Maintenance Department, Mr. Weakley was appointed a patrolman. He continued in this position until a few years ago when he took over the duties of an operator of highway equipment. Since his retirement, Mr. Weakley scorning a life of leisure has kept busy catching up on a back slide of odd jobs. In addition to painting and patching, he raises and sells rabbits. He only has 26 (New Zealand) at the present—the hot weather taking a toll of his usually much larger number. Mrs. Weakley, when asked how it seems to have her husband “retired,” replies, “It's so nice to think that all of these snowy, sleety nights he won’t have to be out in the middle of it. . . Besides, he’ll have plenty to do— gardening and fixing up around the house.” (Doesn’t sound like he’s retired, just changed full time jobs). CONDUCTS CLASS Mrs. Maxwell Willis of Culpeper will conduct a class at Washington Methodist church on Wednesday, September 30 beginning at 10 a.m. Her subject will be “Toward Understanding the Bible.” Everone is invited. There will be a covered dish luncheon. New Managers Take Over Rappahannock News Beginning October 1, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce S. Bowie have leased the Rappahannock News from Miss Lucy Catherine Bowie, owner. The county paper was established exactly four years ago, October 1, 1949, and published the first issue November 3, 1949. The brother-sister team, Bruce and Lucy Catherine Bowie, had John M. Barber, Jr., as the third member of the newspaper force. Jack Barber is now one of Uncle Sam's Air Force printers, stationed in Luzon. When Jack Barber went into the Air Force, Miss Louise Cloud, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Cloud of F. T. Valley, began her 'apprenticeship as linotype operator. Miss Cloud is on the jdb with the new managers, Mr. and Mrs.. Bowie. Miss Lucy Catherine Bowie begins her new work October 5 as linotype operator with the Culpeper StarExponent. Trial Justice Cases Commonwealth vs. M. Brown; seining for fish; fined $10 and oosts. Commonwealth vs. A. M. Miller; seining for fish; fined $10 and costs.

Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt To Give UN Information CITIZENS OF RAPPAHANNOCK Virginians will be given an opportunity to get first-hand information about the United Nations from Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, wife of the late President Roosevelt, when she visits Richmond tomorrow. It is my hoped that each organization in our community will take advantage of this opportunity and send representatives to the morning conference and to the evening public meeting. It is set for Friday, September 25, in Richmond, Virginia. The morning conference is in the Ballroom of the Jefferson Hotel at 11 o’clock and the evening meeting is at the Mosque auditorium that evening at 8 o’clock. 11:00—Conference with representatives of civic organizations, civil bodies and ’special United Nations workers from all sections of Virginia. (An opportunity to find out where you fit in the UN “picture and the job to be done on the Community level to place emphasis on the United Nations). o:uu—normal aaaress Dy Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt. - Subject: “The United Nations and You.” Open to the public. Admission by reserve seat tickets, available to individuals and groups on request. All reserve seat tickets will be held until 7:45 p.m. Admission to the general public for half of the seats at the Mosque. All reserve seats become open seats for he public if not filled by 7:45 p.m. A limited number of reserve seats pre free o you if you will make a request for them. I have named George H. Davs Jr., as the offical representative from this community on the state committee of the Virginia United Nations Association and he wilt be able to give you further information on the program. It certainly appears to me that today's best hope for world peace lies in the success of the United Nations. I think the organizations in‘our community should know more about the objectives of the United Nations and I: believe this is an opportunity for us to find this out. Dorothy C. Davis, (Mayor ■ximMuntmiiimti'iHiiia'uiiaitiiuMiDiiiMiimiiiiiMiM | RAPf - OHATS By: W. H. Lyne County Agent ■MaaaaaiaaaiaaaamaaiMiiiaiiaaiaiaMMiiiiaaainaiaiiiaaaiaiaiMiui Drought and Cattle Marketing Reports are coming in of farmers’ plans to sell their entire breeding herds of beef or dairy cows because of the winter feed supply shortage and prices. Naturally each and every one of us -is deeply concerned over the feed supply prices situation but let’s not loose our heads and get panicky. If we sell our operating capital where will we be in the future and that just what we’d be doing if ye sell out, or should we say dispose of our herds at near give away prices. No doubt there will be some who will do just this because of the feed shortage, plus the price of long feed and the depressing cattle price outlook. True, it doesn’t look like we can put two tons of $40.00 hay into a beef cow this winter and expect to get our money back next fall from her calf but th_*re are some hay substitutes and maybe we can get sonic g am at reduced pri- cs under the drought relief program. Also our backsight shows the man who sticks it ut wisely is the one who in the long run makes the mon ;y. May I suggest the following to the cattlemen who finds himself short of r_l IVCrUl 1. Cull hnd market the off colored cows, the poor producing cows, and slow gaining steers. 2. Buy only high quality hay, conserve everything you have in the way of feed as -straw, corn cobs, and guard against feed wastage of any sort. 3. Remember 1 pound of grain can rep'ace 4 pounds of hay, BUT don’t reduce the quantity of hay to dry - »ws below 10 pound* per head per day. 4. Strive more earnestly than you have in .the past years to produce and market a quality product'. Scholarship Awarded To Jo Ellen Worth Miss Jo Ellen Worth, daughter of Mrs. Edward Cary of Washington, is among forty-two Madison College students who' have been awarded schoarships totaling $11,785.00, college officials have announced. The scholarships were awarded for the 1953-54 session. Awards were made by the faculty committee on scholarships on the basis of need, character and scholastic ability. They fall under two classifications: (1) Special scholarships, ranging in value front $300 to $500, financed from a surplus in the student loan fund authorized by the 1952 General Assembly, and (2) Unfunded Scholarships, ranging in value from $100 to $180, which provide for remission of a portion of all the tuition charges Miss Worth, a graduate of Washington High School, now a senior at Madison College, was the receiver of Unfunded Scholarship. CHURCH SERVICES Eleven o’clock services will be conducted in The Washington Methodist church this Sunday by Rev. Mauck. Rev. G. M. Profitt wil speak on “The Power of Prayer” at the Flint Hill 11 o’clock service his Sunday.

The town’s volunteer firemen, operating the carnival for local fire department benefit, declared the event an outstanding success.

SCS Observes Conservation Week, and Sponsors Contest Governor John S.

DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: r- - - $2.00 a year RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia LUCY CATHERINE BOWIE Publisher Letter To Editor It’s a good thing that they don’t call them “Pony Parties for Children,” for we older folk had just as good a time as the younger generation ! In many ways it is unfortunate that so many children are growing up today without knowing the pleasures which come from riding—of knowing what lies over the hill from the highway—of the companionship of a horse and rider—of the lift and exhileration which comes from riding cross-country. It’s coming to pass in Rappahannock County, and,under the excellent guidance of such men as Colonel Caperton and Captain Weiner, who did an excellent presentation last uaiuiuaj• Our special thanks go to Mr. and Mrs. Greenaway, who did most of the hard work and to the Rappahannock Hunt which made it possible. Sincerely yours, Mildred and Bill Otsey and all the little Litseys ‘The time has come,’ the Walrus said, ‘To talk of many thingss Of shoes—and ships—an& sealing wax— And cabbages—and kings— And why the sea is boiling hot— And whether pigs have wings/ o o o Re-reading of the old Mother Goose ditty, “The Walrus and the 'Carpenter,” didn’t bring forth the catch-line I had hoped for this final bit of rambling for the old Walrus. A couple of the verses were too good to use; they would give the other printers too easy comments; and after all the sass the old Walrus has had to take, I’m not sticking the neck out on purpose. As a sample, suppose I’d used the verse wrhere the Walrus and Carpen SATURDAY, SEPT. 26 GEORGE MONTGOMERY —in— “INDIAN UPRISING” SUN.-MON., SEPT. 27 - 28 AUDIE MURPHY “THE DUEL AT SILVER CREEK” (Color by Technicolor) TUES.-WED., SEPT. 28 - 29 RUTH HUSSEY ROD CAMERON -—in— ‘WOMAN OF THE NORTH COUNTRY’ ter were discussing the sea: 'If seven maids with seven mops Swept it for half a year, Do you suppose,' the Walrus said, ‘That they could get if’'clear?” 7 doubt it/said the Carpenter And shed a bitter tear. “Yeah,” would come the ready comment from these disrespectful printers surrounding the old Walrus, “that’s very appropriate; Just about as clear as the muddy sea is most of that junk!” Nope, they shall not have the pleasure of getting in that wisecrack. Then, too, there is another verse that says something about ‘The butter is spread too thick,’ and there’s no use bringing that up, either. n n ft Just before Tweedledum recited “The Walrus and the Carpenter” to Alice (in “Alice Through the Looking . Glass”) . there had appeared a little ditty explaining the names of the twins, Tweedledum and Tweedledee. The truth expounded in the poem seems to make it appropriate as the theme song of some Peace Movement. Perhaps the United Nations could gather some excellent advice therefrom. Tweedledum and Tweedledee Agreed to have a battle, For Tweedledum said Tweedledee Had spoiled his nice new rattle. Just then flew down a monstrous crow As black as a tar barrel, Which frightened both our heroes so They quite forgot their quarrel. I like that ditty. Reason no. 1: "agreed to have a battle” speaks a big truth. It takes two to make a fight; and if one refuses, there can’t be a battle. Reason no. 2: “spoiled his nice new rattle” shows how plainly the two-legged human animal gets himself all riled up to the fighting point over a “thing”—to a child a tttle is an important “thing;” after e get older we begin to attach importance to other “things,” like oil, money, gold, iron, rubber, ivory, Pitts Park THEATRE Front Royal, Virginia THURS., SEPTEMBER 24 SUSAN HAYWARD CHARLTON HESTON “THE" PRESIDENT’S LADY” PRI.-SAT., SEPT. 25 - 26 ANNE BAXTER — in — “THE BLUE GARDENIA” SUN.-MON., SEPT. 27 - 2S 3-Dimension ‘FORT TI” TUES. - WED. - THURS., SEPT. 2d-30 - OCT. 1 GREGORY PECK SUSAN HAYWARD AVA GARDNER — ill — ‘THE SNOWS OF KILIMANJARO” (Color by Technicolor) sugar—and a lot of other “things" we-listed as exports and imports when we studied geography in grammar school days. The heroes of the ditty got themselves ready for battle because of a “thing” but—what ho! something happened! A common enemy (their’s was black; the popular color for a menace today is referred to as “red”) united the little belligerents and their battle was forgot. ‘Tis a very charming piece of Mother Goose. It's at times like this I’d like to thank my first grade teacher for teaching me to read. She’s no longer listed among the living, according to the census-taker, but she lives forever in the hearts of many. In lieu of the teacher, I. guess I’ll just have to thank the folks at home who scuttled me off to school each day and saw to it that I learned my lessons. There’s no doubt they knew I’d live to thank them for their trouble, though I admit I wish they’d prodded me a bit harder and made me learn more, o o o Upon hearing a very talented child play the piano, I turned to the proud father and asked, “Did you study music?’’ meaning to flatter him by saying that the child inherited her talent from him. “Well,” he drawled, “I’d hardly say that. I annoyed the neighbors with ‘Hearts and Flowers’ on the violin.” If in the future anyone asks me, “Have you ever done any writing?” I have my answer all ready: ‘Well, I hardly say that. I annoyed the people of Rappahannock for four years with a hunt-and-peck system on the typewriter.’ o o o " . . . But who pretender is, or who is king— God bless us all—that’s quite another thing.” HOLD ONTO BEEF CATTLE Blacksburg, Sept. 6, 1953^—Animal Husbandman at V.P.I. urges beef producers not to let the drough force them out of business. There may be ways to carry on, and here are some suggestions from them. First, don’t sell on a glutted market; or at best, sell only culls that won’t respond to feed. Hold your better market animals until the fall runs are over. Second, supplement the roughage you have with grain, since grain is a better buy than roughage.

LORETTA YOUNG JACK OAKIE “CALL OF THE WILD” Plus: Comedy • Cartoon search shows that if you have about half enough roughage, you can use a pound of grain to substitute for 4 to 4% pounds of hay in wintering rations. The tests were made with beef calves and yearlings and do not allow for putting on fat or for producing milk. The grain ration used was 2 parts protein oil meal and 1 part ground ear corn. Combine with roughage, it should also winter beef cows not nurs- - ing calves. Such a ration at $80.00 a ton would be a slightly better buy than mixed hay at $20 a ton, the animal husbandmen say. Research also shows peanut hulls too have,winter feeding value. A ration of 40% hulls, 40% hay, and 10% molasses and 10% oil meal has given good results, even a pound of grain a day when the cattle get all they would eat. Ground corn cobs supplemented with protein and molasses will also winter cattle. Allow 3 to 4 pounds of protein molasses to 20 pounds of cob. Straw, fodder, peanut vines, and almost any kind of roughage can be used when molasses is added to make it palatable to the cattle. If you have the feed, the animal husbandmen add, now is a golden opportunity to go into beef cattle. Any farm with enough feed to winter cattle will certainly be taking little chance to stock up now. Many are looking for a religion that will ease the conscience without cramping one’s 6tyle.

Least of all is it to be assumed that laziness is healthful, if it destroys what health aims at; and it is not true that inactive people are more healthy.” This excerpt from Plutarch’s essay Advice About Keeping Well, written over 2,000 years ago, might have been written yesterday. Had medicine and pharmacy been as well developed then as they are today, we are certain he would have stressed the value of a periodic physical examination by a qualified physician. By the same reasoning, it is wise to take your prescription to a registered pharmacist for expert compounding. We are prescription specialists. LEWIS PHARMACY DIAL 8322 CULPEPER, VA.
