VOLUME 6—NUMBER 48 „ WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 3a, 1954 - Price $2.00 PER YEAR As no answer has been received on last week’s question, and Mrs. W. F. Moffett is deeply interested in finding the author of these words oft quoted by her father, we continue the question for another week: The author and the poem please—“It’s easy enough in the world to live'after the world’s opinion. It’s easy enough in solitude to live after your won . . . But the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd can keep with perfect sweetness the independence oF solitude.’’ Be- the first to cor» rectly answer our question and you will receive a free subscription to the Rappahannock News. v o o o o The Exponent Publishing Company, Inc., with officers John Locke Green, Mary Hume Farmer Green and John G. Smoot, will soon open its doors in the neighboring county of Culpeper, according to direct information from Mr. Green yesterday morning. The State Corporation Commission has recently granted a charter to this newly formed newspaper organization. Culpeper is familiar ground to Mr. Green. He is a grandson of James W. Green, founder of The Culpeper Exponent and a nephew of Raleigh T. Green, owner and publisher of The Culpeper Exponent from 1897 until his death in 1946—-printers’ ink runs deep in his veins. -^Mrs. Mary Hume Farmer Green is a native of Culpeper County,“and taugjit schocd at Brandy for some time. At present she and her husband make their home in Arlington. There Mr. Green has gained state-wide recognition as a prominent lawyer. Rappahannock looks with interest at this organization which promises a new newspaper for Culpeper County.

ENGAGEMENT ANNOUNCED Mrr and Mrs. Netus Brown of Sperryville have, announced the engagement of their daughter, Jeannette Joan of Richmond, to S/Sgt. Addison Lee Swindler Jr., U. S.

V Chiefs Lose Game, Bow From Series The Rappahannock Chiefs lost the semi-final baseball series with Mt. Jackson, as they forfeited the second game after 5 innings on the Triplett diamond in Mt. Jack-,, son, Sunday. . - The Mt. Jackson team had 16 runs while Rappahannock went scoreless. Joe Neff pitched for Mt. Jackson while Turner, Settle and Sisk worked for Rappahan. nock. Neff allowed only 2 hits in 5 innings. Harry McDonald got 2 triples and a single for 4 times at bat. D. Polk collected 2 doubles and a walk for 3 times up, after stealing third and coming home. . The Blue Sox were hitting demons,, each man in the lineup ■ getting at least one hit off the Rappahannock pitchers. Though the Chiefs* finished as the second team in the League Standings, and the Mt. Jackson Blue Sox, fourth,. the Rappahannock Nine had trouble all season, in scoring against the Sox. The two consecutive one-sided defeats, of the Chiefs by the Sox this Sunday and last, proves a jinx. However, though the Chiefs" failed to move to the finals, they can feel proud of their League Standing. They had a poor start early in the season, but as the players gained practice in the Sunday fames, they were hittingrvcry thing a pitcher could put across. HON. TOM FROST CROWNS FESTIVAL QUEEN Neighboring fire companies were not without^ glory in Amissville Firemen’s Festival last Friday night, as the Sperryville V.F.D. and the Washington Rescue Squad were awarded parade prizes, and the Flint Hill new Fire Truck drew cheers from the crowd. Sperryville’s Fire Company won its award by having the oldest piece of equipment in service, while the Washington Rescue Squad were lauded as the Best Equipped Rescue Squad. The Culpeper Volunteer Fire Company received a plaque for having the best marching company; Franconia, for the Best Band, and another for traveling the farthest distance with its RELATES COVERED-WAGON TRIP TO MISSOURI Jt was 1867 and times were hard in Rappahannock, as well as in the rest of the known country. v But as often in healthy depression, there comes an idea that loosens dispair and signals new hope. For 3 families in Sperryville, this mirage took the shape of “The West.” Here, “they would make ^their fortunes . . . There, horizons would be unlimited. Plans for moving West had been fermenting among the families for some weeks and months. They had even looked into therenting of farms and had corresponded with relatives in Missouri. Still The West loomed as an unknown quantity. But it was 1867 and times were indeed bad in Rappahannock. , Early one October ftioraing, a husband helped his wife into the, back of a covered wagon, and once | she was seated, lay 2 month old Rhoda in her arms. Wayne, 17 f months old, eagerly pulled on the} tail board and then, as he was t hoisted in, scampered over his mother’s feet. The baby, liking the excitement in the air, smiled and kicked her feet, unaware that she and her family were embarking on > a covered wagon trip to “The Golden West.” . . . Little less than a century later, Mrs. Frank Cooksey smiles wistfully as she recalls her mother’s tales of the six weeks, she, little Rhoda, brother Wayne, and father, were on the trail to Missouri. '' When they left Sperryville, there were only 3 wagons housing Mr. and Mrs. William D. Mason and the two children; Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Mason, Rhoda’s grandparents; and an aunt and uncle. Along the way, the party joined other families until they formed a comfortably large unit. Mrs. Cooksey recalls that her mother told her of the “miles and miles” of wagons, that appeared like a giant caterpillar moving slowly toward the Golden West. There was little that occurred that tasted of the unusual. Only in Maryland did the travelers run into bad weather, in the form of rain. One night, they spent with a Maryland family. (Mrs. Mason’s health had been poor before the trip and the cold rain did it little good.) There in the Maryland S«« Mr*. Cevlutf—P»|« 2) Rescue Squad. Orange was honored as having the Best Fire Apparatus. An award for the Best Float was presented to the Amissville Youth Club. Culpeper’s Res=cue Squad was named “The Best Appearing.” The equipment in the Washington Rescue Squad Car includes 2 stretchers, oxygen equipment and a complete first aid kit. • REPORT OF AUXILIARY The Ladies Auxiliary of the Amissville Volunteer Fire Department had 3 successful nights in their money-making efforts at the recent Firemen’s Fall Festival, taking in a grand total of $1,467.45 with their projects. Three booths were allotted to the Auxiliary. .Mrs. Charles Green was in charge of two, one for the sale of cakfe, pies and candy and another “New” booth hayjpg for sale miscellaneous articles. One hundred and * forty dollars and sixty-three cents was taken in at these stands. The food booth, with Mrs. Clifford Latham as chairman, took in $569.68. Donations amounted to $148.60. Added to the Queen’s Contest’s $608.54 gross, and the proceeds from the stands, the total stands at an all time high, $1467.45.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNINGAt 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 HELPING TEEN-AGERS IS COMMUNITY PROJECT Being a Teen-Ager has always been difficult, but it seems the members of today’s between 12 and 20 group have a special set of problems built and waiting for them. Probably not the least of which is the term “teen-ager” itself. Many young people have complained about the constant use of the term, and the way it tends to —set them apart from the rest of society. And, unfortunately, often in a non-flattering manner. As one high school girl , put it, “Why ns so much publicity given to wrong doings of teen-agers AS SUCH. “You don,t read headlines saying ‘Middle-agers caught in gambling raid.’ Why must teen-agers as a group, be made to feel guilty for the wrongs of a few individuals?” We* can see the girl’s point. Certainly, unflattering publicity of any group makes other 'members of the same group feel badly. But of course, the use or nonuse of the term teen-ager itself hardly gets down tot^ereal^facts. When youth is in trouble/^ is quite obvious that it IS youth—no matter what the term—and that is a major social problem. We don’t think ignoring or concealing the troubles young people get into is going to help. Rather, the problem needs to ibe brought out into the open, examined, and solutions tried. Once the facts are brought out, what is to be done? This is a more difficult problem, and one in which every citizen must play a leading role. Many communities have done and are doing remarkable jobs in this direction. They sponsor programs to help youth develop along constructive lines. We believe more such programs^ are needed. Working jointly with community forces, can make teenagers feel useful and wanted. Young people are restless— they want something to do, somewhere to go. If there community jg . I i _-_■ MRS. COOKSEY—From page 1 home, she did her first cooking on a cook stove. At home they used a fire place. Little Rhoda’s life saw little change. Her mother, perhaps, was the heroine of the trip. The day before she left Sperryville, the. doctor had visited her. However, though her health appeared to break on parts of the trip, wh^n she at last reached Missouri, she weighed more than she had when she began the trip. Early each morning, Mrs. Mason would leave her bed in the wagon, trying not to wake the children. She would gather in the clothes she had washed the night before, and then start breakfast before waking the men, who spent the night in an open tent. It had to be a big breakfast, for what was left over muSt be enough for lunch. The next long stop would be in the late evening wheh all the light was leaving the sky. - Mr. Mason, riding astride the left horse in the team, had few difficulties in addition to finding good sites for camping. He missed the running water in the Virginia branches. Food was obtained in the small towns that they traveled through in the course of the day. Little Wayne thoroughly enjoyed the journey. His favorite pasttime in the long days he spent with his mother and sister, was throwing things from his moving home. With childish delight, he consistently subjected everything he could pry loose, to an “outta the wagon” trip. However, one thing deeply concerned Wayne. Often he would midge ‘mother’ when can give it to them in the form of sponsored dances, organized athletics, clubs and other forms—of wholesome activity, they are much less likely to seek diversion along lines that will only lead them into serious trouble. What is your community doing for its young people? Q)on V fyieut &00 Sfkmip Don’t wait until you are half dead before you call your family physician. His chances, and yours, are better if you call him at the first sign of illness. It will be less expensive for you, to<|. Often a word of advice, a sensible ' precaution, will prevent serious complications* Even though you may feel perfectly well, it is good practice to see your physician regularly, at least twice a year. If he finds it necessary to prescribe medical treatment, bring * your prescriptions to us. We will fill them promptly and accurately with the finest ingredients. . * , • LEWIS PHARMACY Dial 8322 CULPEPER they had passed through a town and, tell her to look at the people that were “going back,” No sir, he wasn’t going forward, they were “going back;” and the next question was probably: Where’re they going, mother? Whyrre they going back?” ’ ’ _Once in Missouri, the Masons moved into Macon County. There, they rented a. farm, and were soon at home, raising familiar crops in addition to tobacco. They found the “Golden West” not too different from their little native county. Only a few people appeared to them as “uncivilized” according to the learned definition. For 9 years little Rhoda and her family remained in Missouri. The young girl entered a one-room school there. Then due to the ill health of Mrs. Mason, they returned to Sperryville, by train, on much the same route that- they had followed on their covered wagon —trip to Missouri. They lived in Sperryville, where Atha f?rowTn now lives. Later they moved, to Laurel Mills, where Miss Rhoda met and married Frank Cooksey. For 5 or 6 years, the couple made their home in Laurel Mills, then moving to Viewtown where they lived for only a short time. From Viewtown, Mr. and Mrs. Cooksey and family moved to their home near Washington, where Mrs. Cooksey now lives, with 2 daughters, Miss Annie Cooksey and Miss Allie Cooksey. A witty little lady of 87, she easily recalls the happenings of yesterday and in another moment, converses on current events in Rappahannock and adjoining counties. Her brother, “Jim” makes his home in Laurel Mills. He still has the bridles used on the horses during the Western trip. To Mrs. Cooksey and her brother, the covered wagon trip is a treasured bit of family lore. .To those who live mostly in the day of jet planes, 3-D and the atom, it is an almost unbelievable tale of another ag<*. But about it lingers something familiar: Mrs. Cooksey remembers in particular, her parents talking of ORDER OF PUBLICATION At a meeting of the Board of Supervisors of Rappahann ock County held on Sept. 1, 1954, the following resolution was passed by the Board: WHEREAS, Title 4, Section 97 of the 1950 Code of Virginia provides for ordinances regulating' time of sale of WINE and BEER, and WHEREAS* the Boa rid of Supervisors may by ordinance prohibit the sale of BEER and WINE, or Either Beer or Wine, between the hours of twelve o’clock post meridian of each Saturday and Six o’clock ante meridian of each Monday, or may fix hours in said period during which Wine and Beer, or either, may be sold, and may prescribe fines and other penalties for violations of any such —ordinances, and_ WHEREAS, the Board desires to hear the views of citizens of the County FOR and AGAINST the adoption of ordinances pro. hibiting the sale of Wine and Beer, or either as herein before mentioned.
