SOME ..vA OBSERf/iiiUNS PRO and CON KXXXXXX Leon Greenaway of “Leeway Farm” is going ahead with plans to open a consignment sale at his farm between Washington and Sperryville. Mr. Greenaway stated that the whole thing now hinge3 on whether the people of Rappahannock and adjoining counties want an outlet for their surplus farm machinery and/or anything of value that might be around. He stated that plans now are to hold auction sales whenever enough articles are consigned for sale to make a. sale attractive to prospec_tive buyersfrom this section of the State. We feel an auction sale of this type is much needed around here. There are so many pieces oi farm machinery, cows, goats, horses ' household furniture, .trucks, etc., ” that could be disposed of by the owners desiring to turn them into cash. So often the very thing you want is taking up much needed space on another farm, and this type of sale will bring buyer and — seller together. If you are interested in seeing a consignment auction sale getting started in the county talk it over with Mr. - Greenaway at once. • o o o o We of the Seventh District feel that no better Congressman could have been chosen to attend the Latin American Conference of the International Council for hristian -r—Leadership,“opening tomorrow in Havanna, Cuba, than our own Burr P. Harrison. During the three-day conference, Rep. Harrison plans to confer with American and Cuban officials on problems of trade relations.

And once, y National Education Week is a thing of the pastf continue to visit your schools at regular intervals.

Our Association is a voluntary one in which we seek the benefits of fellowship and study and through which we pray that the Holy Spirit will direct us more fully in the work of the Kingdom of God..Our Association is open to all Christian pastors ministering to congregations in this County. We meet together as ministers of Christ, ordained in His Service according to the tradition in which each one of us stands. We desire, by our combined action, to witness more effectively in this County to the redeeming power of Jesus Christ and His Gospel. But we wish to make plain our understanding that policies, actions or resolutions which this Association may approve, enact or recommend are not to be considered as binding upon the congregation which we represent. May God grant us grace to serve Him faithfully holding the unity of the spirit in the bond of peace. TOYLAND OPENS TODAY Way up yonder in the cold snowy North Pole, Mr. Santa Claus put on his eyeglasses a id looked down—down through the sky, until his eyes lit upon Rappahannock. Then he watched— good little boys and a few naughty ones—and he listened as they told their mothers and daddies what •they wanted for Christmas—and then with a whistle and a hop, he filled his sleigh to the top with toys and good things to eat, and called “Come here, Dancer—” Giving a twist and a snort, 7 tiny reindeer pranced through the sky as they carried their jolly rider and his toys to Bradford’s Store in Flint Hill. Today, Thursday, Toyland is •opening in Flint Hill at Bradford’s Store. Now you boys and girls and you too, mom qnd dad, had better hurry to see what Santa left for you. There’s more toys than you’ve ever seen before. Dolls and dishes; banjos and bicycles; games and gloves; these are a few of the things in this wonderland of toys. Shop early and lay away for Christmas.

Various smaller matters were under consideration, including the cleaning and repair of the stove in the Town Hall; the painting of * the yellow no parking lines in town, including an additional one to be painted on Middle Street, near the Antique Shop; and the acquiring of a town Christmas Tree for this year.

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 Pilgrims Prospered I As Land Owners Did you know that the Pilgrims nearly starved to death? That they suffered hunger for two long years with never enough food in the Colony’s storehouse? Have you heard how the Governor and his councilors had complete control of the land and what people produced? How they tried to rouse the Colonists to raise more grain; and how they found a way that worked? During their first year, food was scarce. Even after the 1621 harvest was gathered, the daily ration was only about a quarter of a pound of bread for each per son. In the spring of 1622, the Colonists complained they were too weak to —work raising food. Although they were, on the whole, deeply religious, some were so hungry that they stole food from their starving fellow-workers. Young men complained because they had to work hard to feed other men and their wives and children. Strong men who were heads of families griped. . They said that even though they put in long hours and raised good crops, they and their children received no more food or clothes than men who were unable or unwilling to put in more than a few hours’ work a day. Women rebelled when ordered to cook for men not their husbands, or when requested to wash their clothes. And what about the husbands of women who had been set at these jobs? Their wives, they growled, were little better than slaves, and many men declared they wouldn’t permit their women-folk to do that kind of work. After months of bitter complaints, the Governor and chief men of the Colony came to the conclusion that they were making a bad mistake. As Governor Bradford said, they had thought they were “wiser than God.” Ana so, in 1623, they turned away from government dictation and gave each family a parcel of land for its own use. Then what a change* took place ! Even the women went into the fields willingly, taking their chil L/dren along with thorn. All—men, women and children—planted as much corn as they felt they could possibly work. People who had formerly complained that they were too weak to dig or hoe, declaring it was tyranny to make them undertake field work, gladly undertook to plant and cultivate for themselves. And when the harvest was gathered, instead of famine they had plenty. And so they all gave thanks to God. And what a Thanksgiving they celebrated! No wonder they gave up for all time their sharing of poverty . . . their belief that it was good for all to suffer scarcity together. They found that it is better for each man to work for himself to produce plenty, because that benefits everyone. DEEDS RECORDED IN RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY From Amos Clatterbuck to Lilly F.

Jenkins, our beloved husband and father who passed away November 12, 1952. Two years have gone by but not forgotten, And as dawn another year; In our lonely hearts of thinking, Thoughts of him are always near. Human hands worked hard to save him, Prayers and tears seemed in vain, Happy angels came and took him From this weary world of pain. His gentle face, his patient smile, With sadness we recall; He had a kindly word for each, And died beloved by all. Faithful husband and father both true and kind, A truer person we can never find, For all of us he did his best, x We know God gave him rest. —His beloved wife and children.
