We here at the Rappahannock News miss the daily visits of “Mr. Willie” who has had to forego his uptown trips due to Ibad health. About mail time, Duchess will jump out of her chair as if to say she knows that its time for Mr. Compton. (It’s a well known fact around here' that she will give up her comfortable morris chair for no one ^ccept Mr. Compton, who is a great favorite with her.) , .

Dot Estes’ skillfully carved minatures may have won the admiration; Dorothy Davis’ watchul fox, the tricolor; and Rappahannock’s Mass Arrangement, the ‘awes,’ but our heartiest votes we give * to the men who exhibited their ingenuity in “Early Rappahannock Court.. Days.” Not for a’ many a day have our funny bones had such a heyday ... and the memories the compositions brought too . . .
