PRINTSHOP PUPS PROMOTE PREMIUMS f Don’t be mislead by that “lostmy-friend” look on the blonde Cocker Spaniel, for she’s not at all up-set because sister won the second place ribbon above her third place one in the Charlottesville dog show this week. You see, this is Brucie and she knows, no matter what color the ribbon, that she rules the roost. A born show off, she begrudges any pet or friendly scratch that is deposited anywhere but on her hound-dog head. That ink spot on the right is “Blue/’ who eyes you rather disdainfully. that is, if she bothers to eye you.’-’ In fact, there’s been some arguments as to whether her name should not be changed to “Tom Hand’s Mule.” This doggy dominance had its beginning when Duchess (Chiddlu’s Prancing Elf) presented Rappahannock News with 2 pups in the winter of 1953. Bearing the fancy names of Blue Night a’Braeleigh and Bowie’s Brucie a’Braeleigh, the two youngsters quickly took over the printing business. Born in the shop, they managed to get into ink by the time they could waddle on their fat stomachs over the floor. Wednesday nights they played - -(Photo by Seigneur) sockpulling behind the press and romped in the paper trimmings. 'Eventually, however, they outgrew the confines of a print shop; the linotypes were placed in inconvenient places and the job presses cramped their style. Besides they had fallen in love with a new home in Culpeper, where there were women aplenty to pet them and buy them chicken backs. Never,, however, have they denied their first allegiance to the county print shop and the publisher, on whose 4 poster was their first bed. This show, the first for the puppies and their exhibitors, Miss Lucy Catherine Bowie and Miss Burma Bowie, was only a beginning. 9 1 ► - Hospital Campaign (Editor’s Note—The Hospital Campaign, now underway in our neighboring county of Fauquier, is of great import to Rappahannock, especially to those citizens who make their homes_in the Amissville Area. To best put the plans before the public, we reprint below an editorial of The Fauquier Democrat, June 10, 1954, entitled “The Hospital Campaign.”) If ever there was a time for RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virginia DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE..Publisher Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: 'in advance) _$2.00 a year Fauquier County to unite on a project, it is now, in connection with the plan to buy Physicians’ Hospital and turn it into a community hospital. The \ sum,. of $110,000 is needed, and it is going to be difficult to raise unless everyone in the county does his part. The nearly $9,500 pledged by the Fauquier National Bank as its contribution is a good start,and it illustrates an important fact: For the county’s business men who can afford it, for the county’s organizations and for a good many individuals, this is not a ten or twenty or fifty dollar campaign. Smaller contributions of course will he welcomed by the hospital committee. But for those who can afford it, this is a campaign calling for contributions measured in the hundreds and thousands of dollars.”«, NOTICE Of Qualification Having qualified in the Clerk’s Office of the Circuit Court of Rappahannock County, Virginia, as Administrator of the state of Joseph N.

H i -' 11 f ; i fii t ■■ -• ■ Here are the facts behind the plans drawn up thus far: “The presidents of the countyV four banks and the members of the board of supervisors, serving as a committee to retain the hospital in operaton, examined very carefully the possibility of erecting a new hospital. They concluded that it would be impossible to raise the large sum necessary to build and— operate a new hospital, even with available Federal ' government money. They concluded that it would take two or three years to have a new hospital in operation, whereas the need is immediate. They concluded, finally, that the sensible and hardheaded thing to do would be to buy the present hospital and its equipment, put it into operation, and then make plans for a new hospital to be erected in the future. A basis for these plans is the committee’s firm belief that the hospital property, when a new hospital can be built, can be sold for as much or more than the amount which will be paid for the real estate. As for operation of the hospital, , it is to be vested in a board of trustees, serving without pay, appointed without regard to politics or any other factors except qualification as public spirited citizens who will make good trustees. The hospital will be run not by a doctor but by a hospital administrator PITTS’ DRIVE-IN THEATRE FRONT ROYAL On Strasburg Road oTtHURS. - FRlTjULY 22 - 23 GENE KELLY DONALD O’CONNOR DEBBIE REYNOLDS *. . “Singin* In The Rain” (Color by Technicolor) SATURDAY, JULY 24 STEPHEN McNALLY JULIA ADAMS - in‘The Stand at Apache River* (Color by Technicolor) SUNDAY (Only), JULY 25 LORETTA YOUNG JOHN FORSYTHE . ♦ -in - *It Happens Every Thursday* MON.
