WPQK%aM>a>a»it>o»aMUfciuooiaogB m OBSERVATIONS \PRO ' i j r ■:• o*4 ON ******* Closing up our 1954 boots and reckoning with Uncle Sam isn't enough to keep the poor farmer, business man, etc., busy #o there \ commenced a deluge of question-1 aires topped by a lengthy census report which must be mailed in . within 30 days. Of course, these countless blanks may offer one answer to the unemployed problem. For ini no 8hour working day is there time to dcceiper and fill m said question. So there must be a full time em' ployee to do this... In the coming year, we vow to catalogue! • every piece of scrap paper and loose string that was consumed in the business, not to mention the scotch tape ahd lava soap. Then come January ’56 and we’ll be ready for all questions, no matter; how infinitesimal. t i - ] 0 0 o o Lucio Kilby made a thoughtful suggestion the other day when iri conversation we mentioned the . stocking of county streams. He suggested that there be a jclosed day “fishing-for-children-jo n 1 y day” in which the grown up* would bow out to the yoiungerj enthusiastics. Many boys, and girls too; love to fish, but are often crowded, and bullied from their choice of fishing spots by the: older fishermen. We wonder if this idea . appeals to you and how the day could be established. -j - Albert Einstein was the famous refugee from Germany who arrived in the United States in 1933 and settled in New Jersey to begin his climb towards fame and wisdom. George Raymond Jenkins of Sperryyille and Nick Cascio of Washington both; won free subscriptions by phoning in the correct answer only minutes apart. • This week’s free subscription to the News will go to. the first! per* , son completing this sentence; and name the source: j . "They that go down [to the Mi In , ships, ] •, * That do business in great waters; o o o o A clear concise picture of the* Washington scene can be gained by listening to Burr P. Harrison each Monday night at 6:50 p.m. on channel 3 - Harrisonburg.; o ooo ■ \ Then’s there the case of the housewife who talked her way in* <■ to court on a party line. She is ac* ■ cused of refusing to get off the line so that a fire warden could report a grass fire. Anyway, the fire kept going and burned down a barn, causing an estimated loss of $3,0Q0. This case, coming up- before a grand jury in Reinbeck, N. Y., will be the first tried under f a new law in an emergency. The lady could receive up to $500 fine and one year in prison. ■ if you were walking down Main Street in Richmond, you would hesitate at least once before tramping over private yards; yet here in the country you, without giving it a negative thought, proceed to not only trespass by being on the property but also hunt, • fish and take whatsoever privilege you have a hankering to take, in lake, wood or field? This paragraph doesn’t condemn the city slicker by heaping all such misactions on his shoulder. Many a property owner in the county has told us that the only people who ever asks if they may use his property are the “city slickers." Rather, we condemn that in each of us, dty or country bred, that allows us to make use of another’s property without first asking hit. consent. .!. J. V * i i* i Washington Firemen Discuss Plam For — Better Fire House Plans for acquiring* additional room in order to more adequately house their fire equipment were discussed in a called meeting of the Washington Volunteer Fire Department Monday night. L. V. Merrill,. Lewis Turner, and Charles T. Bruce were appointed committeemen to look imto the housing situation and to present their findings to the firemen in another called meeting to he held next Monday night. The firemen plan to accept one of three plans: the purchasing of j the present fire building from the town and then enlarging it; buying the Thornton building at the cor’ ner of Main and Middle Streets; or purchasing property and erecting a new building. .As the situation.is now, a fire ; truck is housed at Mrs. J. W. Price’s garage and the Rescue Squad car at Parkway Chevrolet garage. Furthermore the Ladies Auxiliary to the Fire Company have outgrown their kitchen and 'dining hall facilities. | A new slate of officers was elected at this meeting held in die fire hall: Bruce S.

Heart Fund Drive Has Good Samaritan ■ - •. | A twenty-five dollar contribution to the Rappahannock Heart Fund has been reported by Mrs. •Paul Miller, county chairman, who stated that this single donation is half of all donations given by couptf citizens in the 1954 drive. 1 In connection with the county heart drive toastie coin boxes, designed in the shape of a red heart and featuring the campaign slogan “Help Your Heart Fund”— “Help Your Heart,” have been placed in public places, such as Service stations, restaurants and Stores. “These are ever present reminders that when we open our purses we should also open our hearts.” ESTES 0- LILLARD NUPTIALS MONDAY Miss Betty Ann Ltllard of Madison and Charles Kenneth Estes of Sperryville were married. 7:30 Monday evening, February 14th in the home of Mr. and Mrs. B.

Plans are in thf mill for "Rappahannock Cattleman’s Day’’ to come off soon as some of the knowledgable speakers can be lined up. This year the program will be built around reproduction. No matter how good managers pur cow-men may be—no matter how good bulls they may buy—no mat. ter how good a feed production he may have on his farm the cow-man will fail if he runs into a passel of reproductive trouble. “Bangs," "Vibrio,” “Trick,” Leptispirosis (can’t prounounce many of ‘cm much less spell 'em .correctly) Vitamin deficiencies in feed that can^t be seen but sure can play hector in any herd—how you gonna overconje these blows? Don’t think your herd is immune. Remember what „ Pennsylvania used to say a^out an ounce of prevention? Shen-Valley membership and the Angus '‘Feeder Calf Consignors will likely have some important bizzness to decide upon at the same time. Bizzness that'll affect what’s on 'your hip and perhaps what’s under your belt as well. Ladies, get these men out if you want a better chance at getting those new drapes or that new slip cover to give your home a fresh'springy ap-, pearance. -Order seed early—especially Red and Alsike Clover; Order chicks early—specify and emphasize those bred for egg production no matter if you do want a heavy breed.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock Count; Virgb-ir . T DIAL WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S. BOWIE.:...*,...-.PmUkhet Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION: (in advance) * .—--— R«> * J*** '‘Power Is Assumed— Not Grantedm States A. Willis Robertson Senator A. Willi* Robertson, (D-Va.) said today the power of Federal Government to fin*, ance internal improvements in? eluding highways had been assumed by the Congress rather than granted by the Constitution and that it should, therefore, be exercised with caution. 1 - in a speech prepared for delivery - on the floor of the Senate, Robertsron referred to the recent Clay Commission .report and President Eisenhower’s message to Congress proposing an expanded highway improvement program and said: - “I deliberately have chosen to make these* remarks before I have had an opportunity to examine * I bill to implement the President’s i recommendations because I wanted to deal with principles rather than any specific legislation.” * ‘ "Each proposal should be carefully weighed not only from the standpoint of the benefits - it promises to our generation, but also from the standpoint of the • ultimate effect it might have on our cherished institutions. A Con. stitution of all sail and no anchor _ means a government wrecked on ‘ the rocks of a loose fiscal policy.” Robertson said tne reocrai • Government now blithely under• takes projects which the two patron saints of the Democratic party—Jefferson and Jackson— were firmly convinced the govem' menr had no power under the Constitution- to undertake and the Congress, is being constantly con• fronted with proposals to expand ^ powers which were merely assumed in the first instance.” He then quoted at length from speeches of Daniel Webster, Thomas Jefferson, James Madi^ son, James Monroe, Martin VanBuren and Andrew Jackson, all of ~ whom had questioned the extent to which the Federal'Government cquld engage directly in works for internal improvement or even appropriate money for such improvements unless they were clearly national in character. l fieiorc prcscnung uus background Robertson recalled that one of his own major political undertakings had been improve' ment of the Virginia State Hip* : way system. He recounted how he ‘ had worked with Senator Harry * F. Byrd, when they were desk-1 mates in the Virginia Senate to set up the first highway system for their State and to have it financed/ on a strictly pay-as-you-go basis. - “It is my conviction,”„he said, “that Virginia’s present system of farm-to-market roads as well as ' arterial highways, gives solid proof of the argument we offered three decades ago that we could get .good roads for less money by payinz for them as they were built. .’ in quoting from Andrew Jack" ■son, Robertson said he hoped * “those colleagues with whom 1 , have sometimes disagreed as to policies involving the Tennessee Valley Authority and other proposed authorities for river valley development” would give particular attention to the views Jackson had expressed as to whether the Federal Government should undertake improvements of • ‘ Primarily local benefit i He said he associated himself ■ with Jackson's statement that although be had “zeal in the cause ' CHURCH SERVICES The Washington Baptist Sunday School is again on the rise in attendance and the worship hour is also well attended. Last Sunday the singing was unusually good s and the choir was excellent. " Rev. G. M. Profitt.wift speak at the morning service in Washington, upon the subject, “Who is My Neighbor Versus Whose Neighbor Am I?” This same subject will also be the topic of the worship hour' at 7,:S0 in Flint Hill. We now have our furnace repaired and are able to have the church well heated. Remember you are always welcome' in the Sunday Schools and services of both •these churphes. •] ”miller-4reen An afternoon wedding Friday, February 11, united in marriage Miss Lena Mae (|Lee) Green, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles M.

[ The bride’s table, covered with a beautiful lace cloth, was centered with an arrangement of fern and white carnations in a crystal bowl, and accented; by white candles in crystal candelabra.
