WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA. THURSDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER 2. 1954 Price $2.00 PER YEAR The Flint Hill school’s interior underwent afall cleaning last week, when Mrs. Annie A. Cooke, the school’s principal, several parents from the community and the Boy Scout troop combined forces to make **the school house livable. All the inside has been painted, the floors scrubbed and sanded and an oil mist sprayed on. The book cases have also been painted. Almost a pick-up load of trash was burned by the scouts in a giant bon fire. In addition Mrs. Cooke has spent many of these smothering summer days cleaning the school. The funds designated for the school improvement program by the Flint Hill P.T.A., previous to their disbanding, will do much to further this project . . . These improved conditions of the school will be a comfort to the parents who watch the offsprings leave for school these next nine months; as well as an incentive to the youths to work harder. o o o o The talk in Amissville is all “festival” lingo with the members of the Fire Company and the Auxiliary seeing to last minute details, for their September 23, 24, and 25 festival. The festival has been well planned with each night being packed full of fun and frolic. Amissville is especially eager to have a good crowd this year, in order that they may pay for their new up-to-date fire truck. To have this crowd, the other towns in the county must support Amissville’s project by attending and bringing the family, as well. 7 o o o o Mrs. Frank Moffett phoned in the correct answer to' last week’s question concerning the identy of the first person impeached in U. S. History and for what this action was brought. William Blount was accused of treason and sedition in having plotted to aid Great Britain in wrestling Florida and the Louisiana territory from Spain. The Senate expelled Blount; the House impeached him and the trial began Dec. 1798. His counsel said the Senate had lost jurisdiction when it expelled Blount. The Senate, agreed to that view of the case, and dismissed the impeachment. This week’s question: What does O. N. T. on thread mean? Billy Mundy Hurt In Building Fall Billy Mundy, small son of Mrs. Clarice Singleton Mundy, was critically injured Saturday after.npon when he fell from a building nvhile at play near the home of his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. E. J, Singleton. Following examination by Dr. Bernard Jones in Culpeper, Billy was taken immediately to the University of Virginia Hospital. Soon after arrival an operation for the removal of the spleen was performed. Mrs. Mundy is making frequent visits to Charlottesville to be with her son. It is reported that his condition is “favorable.” BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT Mr.^and Mrs. Richard Francis of Baltimore, Maryland are receiving congratulations on the birth of a daughter recently. Mrs. Francis is the former Lucille Jenkins, the. daughter of Mrs. Nora Jenkins. Rapp’k.-Vancouver Exchange Teacher For 1954-55 Session When Rappahannock County heard that it was losing Miss Mary Miller Wood to Canada in the teacher-exchange program, it was proud of its daughter but it rather bemoaned the losing of a good teacher for even one session. However, upon meeting and talking with Canada’s representative, Miss Lucy R. Conrad, the county recognizes that Vancouver, too, sent out one of its best.** The veteran of a variety of teaching training and actual experience, Miss Conrad adjusts quickly to America’s system of education. Her high school training was received in Ladner, British Columbia. Following her Teachers Training she taught in education’s best workshop, a oneroom country school near Ladner, and then accepted a position in Ladner. The Royal Canadian Air Force (Women’s Division) claimed Miss Conrad's attention for 3 * years. Working towards her Arts Specialist Certificate (which she now holds) Miss Conrad took courses in McGill University in Montreal and Victoria Summer School in Victoria, B. C. For the past six years, Miss Conrad has taught in Lord Nelson School in Vancouver. Though in her previous teaching years, Miss Conra4 has taught social studies, Physical Education and English, among other courses, she concentrated on Art in Lord Nelson, a school of 800. When conversing with Miss Conrad in her U. S. home, the Lee Highway Hotel in Sperryville, it is immediately known that she loves travel and thrives on a wealth of experience. Though she only arrived in the county last week end, she has visited the Skyline Drive twice and seen several towns in the county. Thus far, there seems to be little difference between the U. S. ' teaching system and that of Canada, remarks Miss Conrad. She notes, however, with approval, the days of teacher preparation for the school year in advance of • the pupils enrolling. In her country the pupils come to school the very first day for instructions on names of books, etc, and at noon, leaving the teachers the afternoon for their arrangements, and plans for the teaching session. ' Miss Wood, who left Tuesday for Canada, will probably teach in ' Vancouver, though it is not positive that she will have a position in Miss Conrad’s school, Lord Nelson. As Miss Wood prefers teaching the fourth or fifth grades instead of Art, she may be assigned ' elsewhere. While in Vancouver Miss Wood is planning to make (Continued on Page 6) Engagement Announcement Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Mills of Huntly, Rappahannock County, have announced the engagement of their daughter* Evelyn Doris, to Frederick Kenneth Harris, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. F. K. Harris Sr., of Front Royal. Miss Mills is a graduate of Rappahannock County High School, class of ‘54, and is employed at The Bank of Virginia in Richmond. Mr. Harris is now ' serving in the U. S. Navy and if stationed at Norfolk. Newest Fire-Fighting Equipment HIM: iw . I— I - ... . The Amissville Volunteer Fire Department’s new fire truck. For the purchase of this vehicle, the firemen and their auxiliary will work long hours at the Fall Festival, September 23, 24, 25. A.V.F.D. Fall Festival Proceeds Earmarked For New Truck In early 1952, a few enterprising and far-seeing individuals in the area of Amissville decided that a Volunteer Fire Department would be an added protection and an asset to the homes and individuals in that growing community. As in all such projects of this sort everywhere, the old story of the “fors” and the “agins” was reenacted, but hard work determination and the generosity of many provided not only a small, second-hand, homemade, fire truck and an ancient pumper, but a twostory fire house. Now, only two years later, Amissville has not only a fine fire house with hall for dinners, dancing, etc; a well equipped kitchen and toilets; the old fire truck and the ancient pumper; they have also”'a"'recently delivered but as yet unpaid for new, modern, front mounted pump, American Fire Apparatus Co. manufactured, fire truck. All of the above has been accomplished by the generosity of many plus the success of their two festivals held in the Septembers of 1952 and 1953. Their 1954 festival will be held on 23, 24, and 25 September and the Department is earnestly hoping for good weather and heavy patronage from neighboring pommunities to aid them in meeting the obligation placed upon them by the new truck pictured above. —Amissville Publicity Dept. 15 Selected For ASC Election Board Fifteen persons have been selected by the County Election Board of Rappahannock County to serve on the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Community Election Boards.

Russell Lee Racer Funeral services for young Russell Lee Racer, 21, were held in the Washington Baptist Church Sunday afternoon, August 29 at 2 p.m. with burial in the Washington Masonic Cemetery. Russell died Thursday night of injuries sustained in a fall from a water tank he was building at a General Electric Plant in Waynesboro. Russell was employed by the Chicago Bridge and Iron Works Company. Russell was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Carroll Racer of Washington and the devoted foster son of Mr. and Mrs. Willie Payne of Washington, with whom he lived during his boyhood. He attended Washington High School and at an early age entered the U. S. Navy and served during World War II. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Doris Fincham Racer and small son, Russell McKinley Racer of Washington; his parents; Mr. and Mrs. Willie Payne; three sisters, Mrs. James Leonard, Mrs. Carlton Johnson, both of Washington, D. C. and Miss Lois Racer of Washington; three brothers, C. B. Racer, U.S. Army, Germany, James Carfoll Racer, Jr., Washington, and George Richard Racer U. S. National Guard, Waldorf, Maryland.'

Among the host of honorary pallbearers were Hill Walker, Frank(Codtinned on Pag* 6) Board of Supervisors Discuss Fauquier Co. Hospital Plans * Five Supervisors met Wednesday morning in the September session of the Board and discussed in addition to routine business, the Fauquier County Hospital and what it would mean to Rappahan, nock. The Board also approved a motion made by A. C. Latham and seconded by W. C. Campbell, that the county assume the 3-year back payment of social security charged the county officials. When the officials recently were put under social security, they were to pay in addition to current payments, payments extending back for a three year period. In neighboring counties similiar proceedings were recorded and the county assumed this back 3 years of social security and were not paid back by the individual officials. Previous to the aforementioned motion, which was carried, the county paid the bill but the officials paid back the * county. James Settle, clerk of court, presented this question to the board. t)r. J. R. Boldridge appeared before the Board, telling them of the newly formed Fauquier County Hospital, and of its impact on this neighboring county of Rappahannock, since so many of our citizens particularly find that hospital most convenient. (In addition, the stretch of road from Washington to Warrenton sees the majority of the county’s accidents.) Judge Snead also appeared before the Board to join in the discussion on the Hospital Plans. A. C. Lathanramade a motion to send a check to the Hospital Fund, but it lacked a second. The matter was tabled until the October meeting. P. D. Coldiron, Resident Engineer, issued a invitation to the members of the board to attend a Highway Conference, convening on October 6, 7, and 8. Supervisors Buckner and Latham accepted the invitation and will attend one or more days of the convention. Chairman Cook asked Mr. Coldiron about the road situation at Reager School, and after brief discussion, a resolution was presented by Campbell and seconded by Buckner that the road be maintained by the Highway Department. Supervisors Latham and Buckner also brought up road problems in their district which had previously been discussed with Mr. Coldiron. Harry Williams was compensated $160 on a sheep claim for 8 sheep. This concluded the longer matters discussed by Supervisors Cook, Latham, Buckner Estes and Campbell. “Skippy” Giles Hurt As Bike Skids , “Skippy” Giles was injured last Monday when his bike skidded on loose gravel, throwing him to the road. He was treated for a deep cut below the knee and remained as a patient in the Winchester Memorial Hospital for 2 days. The accident occurred in front of Mr. and Mrs. Milton Hawkins* home on Wheeler Street. “Skippy” is now home and feeling much better. ' 1. ' ■ ili-'* A....*: ' J

And—most disturbing—p olio epidemics once again are aflame in countless communities which depend upon the March of Dimes | for iron lungs, medical personnel and financial assistance. THERE CAN BE NO DEFENSE WITHOUT FUNDS Send your contribution to your ^district chairman. Try to mail it efore September 10 as this is an Emergency March of Dimes.
