Rappahannock News, November 18, 1954

******* KSXXXX* No dne answered Iasi week's question: “Who is the author of the following lines—‘It has long been a grave question whether any government, not too strong for the liberties of its people, can be strong enough to maintain its existence in great emergencies.’ Abraham Lincoln spoke these words. o o o o It was proud we were indeed as we listened to the records of our county 4-H youth, as expounded in the Friday night “achievement day” program. There was talk of county winner, area winner, and then state winner—we waited quietly to hear these honorees sum up the “cause” of their successes; and to watch the “effect” of these successes. And we were even more proud as they listed in their cause: “hard work,” “good counseling,” “hard work” and again “hard work” ... Come the next generation many great oaks will spread their branches,” we predict . . . o —o oi' o —— - - = Somewhere in this wide world there is a waterfall that is 20 times the height of Niagara. Can you locate and name these falls ? O O O O' The Scout movement in Rappahannock County is slowly gaining headway. This is a healthy sign of county progress. An excerpt from a letter release by the Shenandoah League (of which Rappahannock is a member) points out one important reason for supporting a Scout movement. “In every community in which Scouting has been established there 1 is a. decline in Juvenile Delin| quency. The Scouting Program I has become a must with churches, j| schools, and civic clubs serving as ' sponsors. Scouting throughout communities is the finest of weapons to combat Vandalism, Vagrancy, arid disregard for human nd public values. A District Judge states that in he many years that he has been on - ‘the bench there has not been a [ single boy brought in his court as Juvenile Delinquent who has ad as much as.six months Boy cout Training and reached the rank of Second Class. Juvenile iPlquads can cite any number of cases where an active Scout Troop s prevented , Juvenile Delinency. An active Boy Scout roop in any community is the eatest deterrent to Juvenile De Scouts are wise in reversing the er in which one generally coners the subject of Delinquency, tead of bemoaning the fact that % of the country’s boys find selves in trouble 'with JuveCourts, Scouts happily point that 98.1% of youngsters do become so involved.” LTH ANNOUNCEMENT [r. and Mrs. Frank Huff of ishington have announced the |val of a daughter, born TuesNovember 16 in Warren tmorial Hospital. .

Individual 4-H’ers were awarded medals for their outstanding work, and adult leaders, praised for their counseling. The incentive that was born anew as the youths saw the many persons who believed in their work, as exemplified in their presence, flamed higher as Bill Turner, State 4-H Club Agent, talked of “a 4-H’er’s striving to become a bigger and better citizen.” __ Miss Lelia Gentry acted as Mistress of Ceremonies and Miss Betty Rutherford lead the group in singing several. songs. Their ease at conducting the program lent a pleasant informality to the evening’s activities. certificates ot recognition were awarded to: the Flint Hill National Bank, the Rappahannock National Bank, the Homp Demonstrations Clubs and the Rappahannock News. These certificates expressed the appreciation of the 4-H’ers for the “help and support” of these organizations.

The Sperryville III 4-H club won a party as an award for having the largest percentage of 4-H members, parents and friends at —the Achievement Day Program. — Representative exhibits of each club were displayed in the auditorium. .These exhibits showed the work of each of the clubs during the year aS: the number of members, the projects completed by the 4-H’ers, camp activities and project demonstrations.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS ~ PUBLISHED THURSDAY* At Washington** Rappahannock County Virginia N Q 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 Mass Mailing Spells Death To Weeklies “The present administration of the United States Government has adopted and is maintaining a , measure which, if continued, will probably destroy the weekly news papers—an important part of the nation’s free press. Here's how: “The US Mail handles newspapers and magazines at a low rate, because the Government wants^to foster the flow of information which is needed for the effective functioning of democracy. To qualify for the favorable second-class rate, such mail must be addressed to paid-up subscribers, _ and it may “include not more than a prescribed percentage of advertising. “Last year Postmaster General Summer field let down the bars. He changed the regulations on third-class mail so that unaddressed, nonsubscription, 100-percentadvertising circulars can be delivered to anyone by carriers or post office boxes, at third class rates. He said that it would save money, for clerks would not have to sort this mail by name and address; but it has actually resulted in a huge increase of volume in a money-losing branch of the postal service. ''‘Weekly newspapers live on advertising income. They are willing to face the legitimate competition offered by dailies, magazines, radio and television; and to compete with direct mail advertising $ >on fair terms. “It costs money to produce and publish the news which must ac- " company the advertising in secondclass mail; it costs money to secure and keep a list of subscribers it costs money to address each paper that is mailed. And now the Post Office Department accepts for universal low-cost distribution, circulars and shopping guides — 1 which escape these costs, flooding the mails and drawing advertising dollars away from the weekly press.” DEEDS RECORDED IN * RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY From Mattie Robinson, et al. to John C.

You see it in the bold distinction, of that gleaming Wide-Screen Grille. You see it in the rakish sweep of the rear-end contours. You see it in the whole fore-andaft newness of fleet-lined grace that marks Buick the beauty thrill of 1955. New horsepower—up to 236 You learn more when you get the power story. Up to new peaks go the horsepowers of every Buick V8 engine—a walloping 188 hp in the low-price SPECIAL —a mighty 236 hp in the Century, Super and Roadmaster. And it’s new, more responsive, far abler power you can literally feel ■ as you go. 3ut even bigger Buick news for 1955 is something more than style and power. It’s what the **variable pitch propeller” now has done for Dynaflow Drive.* Up goes performance — and gas mileage too When you find it necessary to push the pedal to the floor board, you do more than call on the greatest high-compression V8 power in Buick history. You do what a pilot does when he heads his plane down a runway. You do in oil what he does in air— you cut down take-off time by using **variable pitch propellers. ” In this case* the propeller blades are inside the Dynaflow unit! But they’re engineered to swivel or change their “pitch” just like plane propellers—and with the same ' result: one pitch for getaway, another pitch for gas-saving fuel efficiency. And what you get in the way of instantaneous safety-surge with absolute smoothness, you can only believe when you feel it. This you have to try Of course, we want you to come and see the trend-setting new Buicks—look into the betterments in gasoline mileage that add new thrift to these spectacular cars. But this year, “steeing” is only the beginning. So—while you join the crowds viewing the new Buicks this week end, make a date to get behind the wheel as soon as you possibly can. We promise you the thrill of the year. *Standard on Roadmaster, optio^^l at extra cost on other Series. NOW ON DISPLAY

News Among Our Colored Readers BIG DRIVE ON BY THE G W C H S. BAND FOR NEW UNIFORMS The Carver High School Band, under the direction of Mr. Elmer F. Sampson, is putting on the biggest drive in its history. The band is going all out to get 75 new uniforms, which are veiy much needed. The first step that was taken to raise money was a series of concerts in the four counties, that Carver serves. The concerts netted a total o^ $438.00 in pledges which the parents of the four counties have promised to give by the end of February. The concerts were very successful and were well received; Madison County having the largest attendance of the four counties. The parents of Madison county also gave a .square dance and supper with the proceeds to be turned over to the Carver band. “I’m very proud and happy over the 'way the parents have co-operated in this big undertaking, says Mr. Sampson, “I’m almost sure this will be our most successful drive for a band that deserves the best that we can give them.” TICKETS ON SALE Students have been selling tickets since October 1. Prizes including 10 turkeys and 10 hens will be given away on November 19, in the Carver gym at 8 p.m. An indoor carnival will be in progress up to the time of giving away of the prizes. We are planning on having everything that an outdoor carnival would have with the the exception of rides. Games, prizes, dancing, band music, soft drinks, popcorn, candy, apples and plenty of food. A crowd of approximately 400-500 people will be expected to attend this very colorful affair in the Carver gym. Plans have already been made for this program with the students ' of the agriculture department, F. W. Nichols, instructor, building booths and games. We are grateful to the Agriculture department for the help they are giving us and help they have given in the past for this annual affair.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS Accessories are the spice of a room. And the good decorator like the good cook knows that too little spice makes a flat uninteresting product.; too much makes confuThat’s the tip from Miss Ruth Jamison, house furnishings specialist at VPI, who has several tips on how to use accessories wisely. For instance, she says a fireplace in a room is the center of interest. Your most important picture, clock, pitcher, pewter plates, etc., belong here. Arrange articles ’on the mantel so they are wellbalanced. For formal balance place a group of objects on each side an equal distance from the center. Informal balance is perhaps more interesting than formal balance. Follow the principle that you would in using weights on a scale. Heavier objects can be placed nearer the center to balance smaller objects near the end. When you hang a picture over a mantel, keep proportion in mind. Don’t use a picture that is too small for the space, hung so high that it is not a part of the mantel grouping. Choose a larger picture IT that conforms to the shape of the wall space. Hang it with the edge < near the mantel. Use suitable accessories to complete the group. Before building a picture window, be sure you have a view you. will enjoy and one which you can control. A window overlooking a lovely view at the back of the” house gives you more privacy than a glass wall on the front of your house revealing you to the passerby. Do not put a lamp with a frilly shade ^n a spindly table in the center of your window. Swag curtains may detact from the v'ew. A low table for the use of those sitting by the window is a good choice. On it you may keep current magazines, a big ash tray and a bowl of fruit. Many Virginian families have television sets. Get the set out of the corner and arrange it with other furnishings on the best wall for viewing it. Flank it with two utility cabinets or a sturdy bench that serves as a seat or to hold a TV snack. You may want to build the shelf into a bookshelf wall. Choose lamps to make a reading, studking or working unit comfortable^ and convenient.

The over-all height of a lamp may be 25" or 28" depending on the height of the table on which you use it. A floor lamp should stand 47" to 48" from the floor to the bottom of the shade. Choose light, translucent shades to permit some light to shine through.

What beats fried apples for breakfast? . They’re delicious in salad or sauce for lunch. Baked apples, stewed apples, and apple fritters are tops for dinner. There is a Virginia apple for every use, including that apple-aday eaten right out of the hand. The Delicious apple, both r.'gjlar and red Deliciuos, is great for eating and adds that just-right flavor to apple salads. You can use Delicious apples for baking, too. Pie-bakers Can’t go wrong with Stayman or York varieties. Both app!cs are tops for all types of o oking, and the Stay-man s crisp, tart flavor is good for eating. The Jonathan apple rates high for all cooking purposes and this red and yellow apple is good raw, too. The deep red Winesap apple lates best in the fryer category and is excellent for all cooking purposes. A good eating apple, the Winesap keeps well and will be on the grocer’s shelf far into the spring. Use the Golden Delicious fresh or in apple dishes. The Grimes^ Golden apple is semi-tart and ap excellent cooker calling for slight reductions in the amount of sugar used. For a baking apple that holds its shape, a best is the Rome Beauty. This variety is also good in other apple cookery. — - . LARGE SELECTION OP GIFT TOYS AT TERRIFIC SAYINGS! Get those wonderful Christmas surprises for all the youngsters on your list NOW!

BOB-WHITE QUAIL Colinus virginianus Here is a bird beloved by sportsmen, bird watchers, farmers, artists and musisians and probably disliked by no one. It has been coddled, persecuted, neglected, studied, protected^by law and by helped and hindered. It has vanished from much of its original range, increased in numbers in some areas, established itself and been introdced inothers. It stays by its home territory the year round and survives fire, heat, storm, flood, snow and ice. It needs to be better understood and the National Wildlife Federation in part thru this sort of article hopes to help toward that end. The bob-white quail is about 11 inches long with a wing-spread of about the same amount. It may weigh up to 9 ounces but commonly has about a 6-ounce weight. It has a short tail, a generally mottled brown appearance with light underparts and rather conspicuously contrasting light and dark areas on the head and throat. Where the male is black on the head the hen is brown. \ ' The range of four subspedfes covers most of the United States, these subspecies including the Fla.-; the Key West, the Texas and the Eastern. Its enemies are man, foxes, birds of prey and disease but its greatest numbers may be reached in areas where its enemies are abundant if ample cover is available for the needed protection. Under intelligent management itself with suitable harvestable surpluses. Its value as a destroyer of insects and weed seeds, as an inspiring songster and as a friendly neignDor must not De ovenooxea in any evaluation of its qualities. A pair of bob-white may remain as mates for over a year even though the cock may find it necessary to win his bride each eyar. The cock bird builds the nest on the ground though several birds may use a common nest. The hen lays from 7 to 28 eggs just over an inch long and these are incubated by both birds for 23 to 24 days. The average hatch is about 86 per cent of the eggs laid. _If a nest is broken up or the young are ’killed early a second brood may be established. Both parents take part in the rearing of the family. Survival in winter is possible largely through the cooperation of the members of a flock, it being rather essential that the size of the conveys do not drop below 10 birds. The family usually remains together through the first winter with the break-up coming with the spring breeding season. The individual range of a bobwhite is usually about one square mile for its lifetimes; Game managers have evolved many ingenious of getting information on the abundance of these splendid birds and if their recommendations are usually followed there is an excellent chance that the birds may remain to please all of^ their many admirers. It is Doubtful if there are many forms of wildlife that rank so high in popularity with so many persons of different interests. Long may we hear bob-white over a generous portion of its suitable range. Virginians are taking their recreation seriously these days, says Miss Catherine Peery, V.P.I. Agricultural Extension Service rural arts specialist. Following the lead of medical specialists who recognizes the need for fun as well as vitamins to maintain health, Virginia rural homemakers have decided to bring fun and family together again. In several Virginia counties, home demonstration groups met recently to plan a home and community recreation program. They are especially concerned with channeling the energy of young people into wholesome activity. They hope to strengthen family ties and to get the greatest pleasure out of rural life. Music, singing together, story telling, reading aloud, dramatics, hobbies such as crafts and collecting, family outings nature hikes, and celebrating holidays and birthdays are some of the activities which they consider important. Take your family to the woods in the fall, go camping or fishing toVirginia’s historic sites, and you will have not only the pleasure of the trip but also the happy memory for a lifetime, Miss Peery points out. “Families who play together stay together,” is the slogan of the V.P.I Agricultural Extension Ser vice recreation program. Have fun with your neighbors, Miss Peery advises. Let everybody have a part in planning and carrying out the fun.'To be sure that all goes well, she says, have four committees : theme and invitation, decoration apd clean-up, games and entertainment, and refreshments. Keep the small fry busy ''passing napkins and doing other simple jobs. They will catch the team spirit early. For the grown- . - ups, swap jobs for different parties so that nobody gets in a rut. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to have fun with your family and friends. Miss Peery says. It’s being together that adds up— not the cost. Cornish, N. H.—While preparing breakfast, Cliffort Peterson, saw his 1952 automobile being driven off across the field. Hurrying out to investigate, he found another 1952 car in his garage. Police said the car was out of gas and that apparently was the reason for the switch. While industrial output in the rest of the world showed sharp increases, that of the United States continued to drop in the first half of 1954, according to a recent United Nations report.
