I ' o « o o j* j; • A sense of duty is what leads a man to believe he must get to the office in spite of the fact that he is coughing, his nose is stopped up, and his face is flushed with fever. In spite of the fact that his wife urges him to stay in bed and promises to devote her entire day to nursing him. In spite of the fact that his employer calls up to assure '' him that all is going well, that no vital matters are to be attended to and that they can get oh perfectly without him. A sense of duty impels a man to ignore the advice given him. It leads him to believe he knows better than his wife and his employer, t It strengthens hi* conviction that the business will go to pieces without him. jL/Js... It encourages him ini the mistaken idea that be feels better and . will improve still more as the day progresses. It creates in his taiind‘ the illusion 'dial his self-sacrifice will serve as an inspiration for the younger generation to whom the word “duty” is unfamiliar. Thanks to his sense of duty he drags himself to his feet and into his clothes and Sets off for town. His only concession is that he will come home early% His sense of ditty follows him to Q his desk and stands by as he tries ” to hold his head up while he attends a few routine chores. It does not desert him until he has stuck to the job long enough to salve his conscience—and jto past his cold on to everybody else in the office. —Christopher Biitopp, McNaught Syndicate —"Gluey Gleamings” Firemen Ask Council To Lease or Sell Present Fire House Appearing before the Washington Town Council in their March meeting held Tuesday night, a committee from the Washington Fire Company asked that the town either lease or sell them the present fire house. They stated that their organization had outgrown the building, having to house one .truck in a citizen's garage and the Rescue Car in Parkway Chevrolet garage. . ;,!] | , , j The committee stated that the j firemen planned immediate improvemerit of the building by adding 12 feet to the side and by installing a heating plant.

It enables all of ms io express the universal desire to help a less-fortunate neighbor wherever he may be. There is an evergrouting need in these troubled times for the distinctive services of the Red Cross> given freely by people of good will. Jt takes people to help people. A family crushed by disaster needs aid to rebuild its tornado-smashed home • t • A tired doctor calls for blood to save ft sick childs life. A soldier overseas anxiously awaits the reassuring word that his wife’s recovery from illness is certain »,. An accident Victim needs quick, sure first aid ears if he is to live ... Yo$—the people of America' answered these calls for help last year through your Red Cross • \. • these calls and hundredt-of thousands like them. «1 Your outpouring of time, energy, and money made Red Cross service possible. ■ ' j In the year just ahead the need will be as great as ever—the stricken, the uprooted, the troubled will call again and again for the help they must have the kelp that only people can give. And the American people will meet that need . . . through thetr Red Cross . as they always have. They can be depended uponv—this year, as Always—to answer the call/ The popular notion that a car “can stop on a .dime” was exploded Monday morning when 2 R. C. H. S. students, a faculty member and a state officer pitted their driving skills and reactions against time in a series of emergency stops. Jackie Sisk, Shirley Williams, Nick Cascio and W. A. Bunting drove a specially equipped demonstration car at 20, 20, 30, and 40 'miles per hour, respectively. The car was equipped to measure stopping distances accurately. An emergency signal light was mounted on the hood and 3 revolvers fastened to the front bumper. Aimed straight at the pavement, the guns fired bullets of yellow paint to mark points at which drivers (1) saw the emergency signal; (2) slammed on the brakes and (3) stopped the car. (A safe<ty engineer rode beside each driver and operated the equipment.) Although all four tests proved the individual’s reaction and braking, with the resulting total stopping figure, below average, they proved too that the seconds between the time that you hear the signal to stop and your car comes to a standstill, are lengthy indeed. Imagine a playful chiljil chasing a runaway football as it rolls into the street—think of a careless driver pulling out of a side street. You remember that your car cannot stop on a dime. Then drive at excessive speed, if you dare. At 20 miles per hour, the reaction distance is 18 ftii; the braking distance, 22 ft. and the stopping distance, 40 feet. At 30 miles per hour, reaction distance is 27 feet; braking, 50 feet and stopping distance, 77 feet. At 40 miles per hour your reaction distance is 36 ft.; your braking distance, 88 ft and your stopping distance, 124 ft At a rate of 50 miles pet hour, reaction distance, 45 feet plus braking distance, 138 feet "equals the stopping distance, 183 feet. At 60 miles per hour reaction distance is 55 ft,; braking distance, J98 ft.; and stopping, 253 feet. You’re asking for it at 70 miles per hour when your reaction distance is 64 ft; your braking distance 270 and the stopping distance, 334 ft. The Monday demonstration was arranged and the automobile supplied by the Farm Bureau Insurance Companies of Columbus, Ohio and Lynchburg. 4-H’er Of The Month ——i hi .ill Miss Frances Walker, , “Improving Family and Community Living,” die theme of National 4-H Club Week, ia clearly exemplified in the 4-H career of Miss Frances Walker, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Walker of Washington. In her seven yearrof 4-H dub work, Frances has completed 9 projects. She enjoyed most the work in the home improvement and clothing construction projects. Frances is junior leader in her , community and is chairman of the1 table decorations for the 4-H supr which will highlight 4-H week the county. In addition to her 4-H work, Frances plays anactive part in school and civic affairs. At Rappahannock High School, she a a cheerleader, a member of Varsity Club, glee dub, F. H. A. and historian of the Future Business Leaders of America. She is also an accomplished pianist. \Vhen asked what the 4-H dub has meant to her, Frances replied: “It means learning new and useful skills from the projects, new games, and songs and a chance for Useful recreation. It also means •*' new friends by giving me a chance to meet 4-H’ers from all over the state at camp and meetings. 4-H gives me inspiration from its vesper programs, 4-H Sundays and campfires. And last of all, it provides a chance for leadership and the development of my personal talents.” AMISSVILLE CONSIDERS BUYING OF AMBULANCE The President of the Amissvill^ Volunteer Fire Company has requested that anyone interested in having the services of the ambulance, (purchase of which is noW consideration), available to the community, make known their sentiments by donation or otherwise.

Point-To-Point Run In Fog, Mud Still Draws Crowd Two Rappahannock Horses, Warsir, owned by Mildred B. Fletcher, 'and Woodsman, owned by Mary N. Wood and trained by Jack Bruce, raced through fog and mug to pass the post, first and second, irvthe Rappahannock Bowl featured in the Point-to-Point; Races held Saturday evening at - Leeway Farm. • 'i Russell Dart rode Warsir while Woodsman was ridden by Ennis Jenkins, (trained by Jack Bruce.) Defying the elements (for tht' first time in the 5 year history of the races) a crowd, estimated at 3,000 watched the 11 race card, which' brought into action everything from farmers draft horses to ponies and promising timber pros- - pects, with a hound race closing the program. . - An Air Fort* doctor, Captam * Joseph M. Rogers, met the pace ^ • throughout the Mount Marshall and The Battle Run Race on his brown mare, Star Salome. Second over the three-mile course was Charoton, owned and ridden by Cyrus Manierre with third place going to Essex, owned by Mrs. T. A. Randolph mid ridden by Mike Smithwick. ; In the Mount Marshall, a ladies race of 2Vt miles, 2 horses collided , on the flat when Miss Patty WejK ,,, mouth, leading the field on Figatarsme, skirted the turn beckon, and in her eagerness to round it* bumped Mrs. R. H. Dulaney Ran- ’ dolph on Good Ship, who had ‘come up and was passing the > beckon. Both hit the ground hard, but quickly regained their feet, caught their mounts and were back in the race.'They overtook Mrs. Richard Fadeley on Thomas Taylor’s Chicamaugua and came in with Miss Weymouth finishing first, Mrs. Randolph, second. Miss Weymouth, however, was disqualified try the stewards for causing - the collision, and the trophy was awarded to Mrs. Randolph. The Ben Venue race for 200pounders was another two-horse vendetta between Col. Lowell Reilly’s Lancer, ridden by Tom Caulk, and Dr. Rogers’ River Bed, .ridden by Russell Dart. Dart tangled with a wire fence and had a roll in the mud. He remounted to finish second. if Lord Miiday, naaen oy wuliam Carter, set a lungbursting pace for the Leeway, an open race for gfcntlefnen, three miles. Following closely on Lord Milday’s " , heels was Piney Creek, owned by Chuck Hackerman'and ridden by Wally Holly. As they raced down the field toward the steward’s wagon, for the second round, ♦ Piney Creek, faltered, his legs crumbled and he fell to the , ground, dead, of a heart attadc. The rider was unhurt. Lord Milday dropped back under the blisterii% pace and Height Award surged forward to take the trophy. The Pony Club: 1—Charmaine, owned by Capt. J. L. B.

BOWIE....1 Publishet Entered as second-class mail matter at the post office at Washingtoq, Virginia SUBSCRIPTION :~/ia advance! . ■ ,-$2.00 a letter To The Editor I live in Rappahannock. Today m volunteer' knocks on my door and asks if I would like .to join the American Red Cross. I hesitate a moment and think—another organization, taiore money—why do they hound me—why should I jive them money*—for what have they clone in Rappahannock. Since I have never bothered to ' read or note in statistics what they hive done, I can only think broadly. Well, there’s the Blood Bank visit each year. I’ve heard that we have used all we’ve given and more too. In the-summer, they organize and carry out i swimming ' class for the children. In the only_ Woodville tornado, they were major disaster, in the county, the there helping. When a house bumsities for the family. That time, ■ <d they provided food and necesjimmy was overseas and had to come home on rush leave—the RedCross carried the message. Tom told be they gave him food on the fropt Ijne and entertainment in the canteens. Strecthers and blankets . were given to the local Rescue Squad. Two home nursing class and a first aid class were conducted, this year—Yes, they haw done •something here. Believe 1 will join after all. ■* And closing die dpor I think: “If they’ve done this much in our county, think what 'they’ve,. I mean, We’ve done, all around the world." ; r ^ ■- > -fcv —A Citizen Gone Are The Days Editor's Note—(With this article we do not advocate .the abandoning of the modern consolidation nor do we preach a preference for the cold 2 mile walk that the yellow school bus transplants. A bit oostaglic however we see the inevitability of growth, •true a wonderful growth. And we stop a moment *to salute the pot-, bellied stove inits. little red school building ... we say a prayer that therfc will be room in the modem artitecture as, there was in the “little red school house” for the individual.) . , The hig yellbw school bus, is • pushing the little red schoolhouse off the American landscape. ■> Although there remain 45,000 one-room schools (some still red), the number is shrinking at the rate of 10 a day, says the National Geographic Society. * ~ School districts hive been enlarged. Modem steel,' stone and Er,« structures, each housing hundreds of pupils and 10 or more teachers, are replacing, the elementary classrooms where four or more grades studied and recited hv side. '> i „ Educators believe advantages ot consolidation outweigh the good points of the “little red” sch^ls. Progress in road building and motor transportation has made it possible to hire more and bettertrained teachers. Larger buildings offer better facilities at lower cost ' per pupil. - In the school year 1917-18, 196,000 one-room schools represented 71 per cent of all the country s school buildings. By 1940, the number had dropped to 114,000, and by 1952 only 51,800 singleunit buildings were left. Most of the remaining oneteacher schools offer- instruction -only up -to the sixth grade. Using primitive equipment, they are scattered in rural areas. A few cities still Imve single-room build* ings. The one-room schoolhouse, red, white or the weathered odor of hand hewn logs, molded the early thinking of millions of children. It was frequently a stem teacher, but in later life generations of Americans built nostalgic memories of their youths around the harsh clang of the recess bell or the afternoon drone of reciting pupils or the prank that spelled a half-hour stay alter school. Even the rod, often a hickory switch, became a symbol of happy, unspoiled davs. Sometimes school, for all its/ •mental drudgery, meant respite from bodily toil. In a little backwoods shack at Knob Creek in his nafiVe Hardin County, Kentucky, Abraham Lincoln "learned to read and write, and cipher to the rule ,of three.” The late Henry Ford rescued Redstone School, in Sterling, Mass., from its ignominious function as a garage and moved it tt his "Longfellow’s Wayside Inn” esjate at , South Sudbury, Mass. It now serves as a classroom for. 16 Sudbury grammar-school children. Redstone, where Mary Sawyer’s little lamb "followed her to school one day”, inspired the poem, “Mary Had A Little Lamb." Recently 206-year-old Quasset School in Woodstock, Conn., was dedicated as a permanent shrine. On the walls of Quasset’s single classroom are wooden pegs .for ' hanging VJ, ■jp Lunch pail* and a water bucket with tin dipper sit on a shelf. A high stool and dunce cap, and . a slippery elm switch for malefactors have been preserved. Dorchester, Mass, probably esr aablished the first “free” school-in the New World in 1639, and appropriated 20 pounds from public funds for teadier hire. The Pilgrim-children earlier had attended "classes outdoors or in private homes, with volunteer teachers. ^ County Home ILDemonstratioo MEWS Elizabeth Fuss Powers Home Demonstration Agent SCHEDULE Tuesday—Fodderstack H.

But there is much that can be accomplished to aid in a bigger and better garden now." Also many more ■ families have a home freezer or will use frozen food lockers.

Looking ahead, C. E. Phelps, chief of the Game Division of the Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries, says there is fjto reason why Virginia’s sportsmen shouldn’t harvest enough deer to double the present figure -within the next few years. The high deer harvest, , however, still fgll below pre-season estimates, especially west of the Blue Ridge, where disagreeable weather kept the number of hunters down. In keep with the Commission^ policy of managing deer as a renewable resource, eight pf the counties west of the Blue Ridge were- open to antlerless shooting (hunter’s choice) the last day of tihe season. This produced a harvest of approximately 2000 antlerless animals, a number well in keeping with the sustained welfare of the herd. While the 271 bear killed and 2023 wild turkey bagged were, figures below those for the preceding^ season, the pattern appears to be. the result of local conditions. Weather had some influence, particularly in the western counties, in reducing the number of hunting days. Even with the re- ; duced bear kill, Phelps points out that Virginia is still in the bracket i with other states better known as “bear states.'; \ SCHOOL NEWS On Monday, March 7, all students at R. G. H. S. saw the driver safety demonstration. A movie on •safe driving, was shown, after which Mr. Taylor, safety engineer, showed proper methods of turning, j backing, etc. - _ Then, Jackie Sisk, Shirley Williams, Nick Cascio and State Trooper Buntin tried their braking reactions at various speeds. Students were surprised to learn when results were posted that Mr. Cascio has been driving since he was 9 years old. TJie chart said he had been driving 7 years and listed his age as IS. 16-9 equals 7. The seniors are trying out for parts in “A-Feudin’ Over Yonder”, which will be presented about the middle of April. Be sure and come. We’ll keep all the shot guns loaded with blanks to protect innocent by-standers. Candidates for the bsseball team are loosening up their throwing arms, oiling their gloves and getting ready for a full season. _ GROWERS INVITED TO “CORDOX" DISPLAY L- L.

' -; Helpful Hints For \ Your Family Chef Be saucy 1 That’s the advice to cooks from nutritionists at VPI. A good sauce will liven up the meal, and here are some easy recipes. * For a thin white sauce use 1 cup of milk, 1 tablespoon of flour, and 1 tablespoon of table fat. It’s good for cream soup, creamed and scalloped vegetables, eggs, fish and meat ■ , For a medium white sauce use 1 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of flour, 2 tablespoons of table fat. Has same uses as a thin sauce. For a thick white sauce, use 1 cup of milk, 3 to 4 tablespoons of flour and 3 to 4 tablespoons, of table fat Use as * binder lor croquettes, and for souffles. To make die. sauces, melt hX , and blend in the flour to make *_ smooth mixture. Add milk slowly and cook over very tow heat, stir? ring constantly, until thickened. Add salt to taste—about 1/4 teaspoon for each cup of milk used. Cook 3 to 5 minutes longer, stirring occasionally. For a cheese sauce, add 1 cup finely grated cheese to 1 cup hot white sauce—thin or medium. Stir uijtil cheese is melted. Be careful not to overcook. For an egg sauce, stir 2 chopped hard-cooked eggs and 2 tablespoons lemon juice into 1% cups hot white sauce—thin or medium. To make tomato sauce, use 2% cups fresh tomatoes cut in pieces, ^or £ cups cooked or canned tomatoes. Cook slowly with % teaspoon of sugar if desired, 1/4 cup chopped onion, small piece of bay leaf, and 2 doves. Cook 20 minutes for fresh tomatoes, 10 minutes for cooked or canned. Put through a sieve or food press. Blend 2 tablespoons melted fat with 2 tablespoons flour and stir in the tomato mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring often, until thickened.

Lyna . _County Ayant Recommended Spring Oat varie*ties have given the following average performance at the Orange Experiment Station: Andrew, 57.6 bu. per acre. Missouri 0205, 57.2 bu. per acre; Clinton, 48.3 bu. per acre. . , Clinton will be dropped from the recommended list this year! Performance of other crops recommended has been as follows: Red Clover: Certified Kenland, 'i 5730 lbs. per acre. Certified Vs. Adapted, 5453 lbs. peracre. (Kenland does not seem as drought resistant) Alfalfa: Williamsburg, 9515 lbs. per acre. Atlantic, 9620 lbs. per acre. Kansas Common, 8485 lbs. per acre. Buffalo, 8840 lbs. per acre. (Buffalo is Wilt resistant, however, no case of wilt in Alfalfa imthis county has been observed.) rerry is the only Variety of soybeans adapted to our section while no orchard grass has proven superior to Virginia adapted. Topics to be discussed CowMen’s Day on Monday, March 28th at Spcrryvillc School will apply to the family cow—the cow in a grade A dairy, and a beef brood cow alike, lit is felt that every cow owner in the county should avail himself; or herself of the opportunity to learn die details of Virginia Bang's; control program as explained by Dr. Estes of the State Veterinarian’s office. > For example: an owner having hid herd of 10 cows finds six to be reactors. To get rid of this number would put him in a financial strain. Should he sell? Should he sell and replace, or would it be wise to retain the reactors and build up a vaccinated herd? If he elects to sell, how is the value of the cow “on the farm" determined, and how much money can he get over af)d above what die may bring on th<| market when sold for slaughter? The program will,get underway at ten o’clock sharp. There’ll be plenty of seats as well as an opportunity for questions from the floor. Hope to see you March 28th at Sperryville School.

Those in commerce and industry have had this sort of retirement income protection for the past several years. If Farmer A, for example, is now 63 years of age or older, he will have earned his retirement income as soon as he has reported on | two years of earnings. However, j he will not be entitled to 'receive l his benefits for all months if his net income in the year is more than $1200 unless he has attained the age of 72. More details on how to determine earnings, and how to tell whether the income is creditable or not; will be given in later articles. 1 Examples of monthly retirement benefits to the retired farmer and his family are given in the following table.

Eighty three exhibits, featuring every phase of gardening ftom seeds to spades and from garden clothes to garden crafts, will keep the gardener in step with the latest developments in popular outdoor home beautification. j Id addition, a magnificent garden | and flower display of niore than 10,000 plants covering thousands of square feet will provide a thrilling sight of bursting color.

News Among Our Colored Readers FRIENDS AID NEIGHBOR WHEN FLAMES STRIKE While West Phillips was in his bam feeding his stock at 8:3(fN>n the morning of Sunday, February 27, he heard shots coming from his house. 9 His daughter, three grandchildren and sons who were in thf yard heard them too. Lookingtoward the house they saw flames bursting from the windows of an upstairs bedroom where ammunition for a shot gun was kept. The Amissville Volunteer Fire Department was immediately notified. But though it got there in record time, the entire second story Was in flames which soon spread to the first floor. The family’s entire savings— $1600.00 in bills which was in an upstairs room—went up in smoke. Nothing in the house but the dining room furniture was saved. Father, children and grandchildren were left with only the clothes they had on. Someone notified the Rappahannock Chapter of the American Red Cross of the fire and the 'Phillips family’s plight. On thesame day, Les Phillips was contacted by a Red Cross worker who arranged for Hackley s Store to supply the Phillips’ needs. There are people who may ^wonder “just what the Red Cross does” besides nursing and first aid work. The Red Cross contribution to West Phillips is one small example among thousands of varied emergencies in which this organization, comes to the rescue with material help. ' In this instance, the local chap> ^r was called immediately after the fire. In any emergency of this sort, the sooner the Red Cross is notified,* the better—preferably within 24 hours. The Philips are grateful to the many people—both, white and colored—who offered them their help. Among them were Sam Compton, who allowed them to move into a vacant house of his; and the members of the Methodist Church who donated clothing and other essentials. It is believed a defective chimney caused this destructive fire. Mr. and Mrs. James Clark • gave a birthday party Saturday night in their home. About thirty guests were present.

And we proudly show our price 4 here to prove it. For the delivered price of the Buick Special Sedan shown here is sharply competitive with those of the three best-known smaller cars-lower, in fact, than some models of those same cars. Buick Sales Are Soaring That’s one big reason why Buick production and Buick sales are hitting all-time record highs today—and why Buick is Qutselling all other cars in America except two of the best-known smaller cars. But an even bigger reason is this fact: The price you pay for a Buick buys you a lot more automobile than the same money buys elsewhere. It buys you big-car room and size and comfort and brawn. It buys you Buick styling, Matter Charles Bowlin*, Jr, has been on the side list for the past week. . „ i Miss Gloria Thach, who is attending college in Richmond, spent the week end with Rev. and Mis.

"buying” when you pay your social security taxes. You' are “buying" old-age and survivors insurance; that is to say, when your earnings stop because of your death or because of your retirement at age 65 or later, payments will be made from the fund you helped build up, and will be made to you and your dependents, or to your survivors. ■Here are the types of benefits payable : 1. Retirement Payments: (1) 4 Monthly payments to you as a retired farm worker or farmer. (2) Monthly payments to your — a. Wife, age 65 or over; b. Child under 18; c. Wife, regardless of age, if caring for child entitled to benefits; d. Dependent husband. 2. Survivors’ or Death Payments: (1) Monthly payments to your -T- a. Widow, age 65 or over; b. Widow (regardless of age) if caring for child entitled to benefits; c. Child under 18; d. Dependent widower, age 65 or over; e. Dependent parent, age 65 or over. (2) Lump-sum payment to your: a. Widow or widower; or b. To the person who paid burial expenses. Benefits for a retired farmer run from $30.00 per month to $108.50 per month, depending on the amount of his past earnings from employment or self-employment covered by the Social Security Act. Family benefits may run as high as $200.00 per month. For more information about social security for farm families, write to J. K.
