waooasaumwti JWOOiOOO OBSERVATIONS One of the mbst enjoyable affairs I have hadj the pleasure of attending1 was; at the Amissville fire hall last Friday evening, when . the Ladies Auxiliary of the Fire ; Dept, were hostesses tb a large gathering fretn all sections of the county. Games Of Bridge, Canasta, Caroms, etc., wejtfe enjoyed. But I feel that the most outstanding pleasure of the livening was seeing the look# of | satisfaction ( and pride on the fate^ of the ladies responsible for the;occasion. Amiss-, ville is truly for unate | in having the spirit of co-operation and getup that has afforded them such a wonderful place io entertain and have entertainments. Ann the men of the fire comply are fortunate in having a community that will back them with i^oncy, labor, and most of all FA1T1. . 1 jj l Another community, Flint Hill, also has people With these attributes, for they are nearing completion of a beautiful anjd spacious fire hall and community center. Maybe in (the jnot too distant future the other two fire companies of the county will be able to get started ah building* of their own, and not have to share their quarters with other organizations. For the past few day* when„ ever someone waists up you automatically reach fojr your pen, for you know they halve a petition to toe signed. All sign* now point to a lively time in the county for the next few months, j' truly feel sorry for anyone with toursitis Or a touch of rheumatism in the arm for there wiM boTjlenty of hand ahakin’ during ,the next few weeks . . . and pity the poor babies if the going gets hot just before the election.

Miss Helen Jenkins Homemaker of Week Mist Helen Jenkins, daughter of Mrs. Carroll Stringfellow of Amissvillc, has been chosen as “Homemaker Of The Week” in a series of TV Broadcast| honqring, each week, an outstanding student in the field of Home Economics. This program is deigned to further the interest in Home Economics and the Future Homemakers of America, It accomplishes an increase in enthusiasm by bringing before the public'the accomplishments of these alert, ambitious young pebple .and pointing out how, these successes have been, sometimes initiated, but always encouraged by Home Economics. In the interview Tuesday afternoon on WSVA, channel 3, Miss Virginia Lindamood, mistress of ceremonies, conducted the interview with Miss Jenkins | HELEN: It is a great honor to be chosen as Homemaker of the Week. I am a senior at Rappahannock High and have beeiji a member of the FHA for 4 years. I live near Amissville with my stepfather and mother, Mr. lnd Mrs. Carroll Stringfellow. lfte r ha ana my nomemaxing classes have helped me in | so many ways that it is hard to single out one way as the most help. My mother and step-father both work in Arlington and leave for work about'5:30 in the!morning 'and do not get home until about 6:30 in the evening. Consequently, I have all the cooking and housework to do. Through my homemaking classes, f have learned how to budget my time so as to get all done that has to be done in the shortest amount of time. I have learned how to prepare economical meals attractively in a short length of time, and I can iron ja man’s starched shirt in 10 minutes flat! Through the FHA, I havje gained insight into my family and community recreation problems, and as a result, my family members enjoy each other more than they used. to. Our chapter of FHA has been fairly inactive for .the past two years, but this year I feel that there has been much more interest in the chapter and that the chapter has been strengthened through this interest. i This year our Chapter took for its goal, one of the purposes, teaching ourselves to realize and accept our responsibilities in our homes. OUR CHAPTER ACTIVITIES WERE 1. Have a box supper and talent show for our parents, which we are planning for May. I I 2. Have speakers at the dub meet ings: 4 County health hurse on “Family Health”; Minister on “My Con* tribution to the Families Spiritual Life;" Exchange teacher. “Home Life in Canada.” 3. Display downtown in store windows during national FHA week on tlie teenager^ contribution to home life. . ‘ \ 4. Study fire prevention in home and community. ’ 5. Write articles for county paper. 6. Have movies for the entire .school on. gome phase of home life. OUR INDIVIDUAL ACTIVITIES WERE 1. Try to find ways to cut,down personal and family expenses. 2. Try managing the home for a week. o • , 3. Plan and equip the home medicine cabinet and first aid kit. 4. Shop for the family. j 5. Plan and carry out some recreational activity for the family as a group. The individual activity that I carry put all the time is managing the home. I get up about four o’clock in the mojming and start the fires. I fix breakfast for the family, and fix my step-father’s lunch. When my parents leave for Arlington, I wash the dishes, sweep the floor, and make up the beds. Then I feed the cow *n<l chickens. By now, it is time far me to come to school, as I have to leave home at 7:30 to get the bus for school. When I get home in the afternoon (at ten to five) I have to start the fires again, get water, and feed- the cow and chickens again, then I get supper. On Saturdays, I make out the ■ market; order for my step-father. Sometimes I go with him shopping and sometimes I don’t. I usually stay home to wash, iron and wash and wax floors. This has been good training for the time when I will have a home of my own. I am very happy to be a member of the FHA. 5 Miss Nora Dillon, Home Ec. teacher at R. C. H. S., and Miss Jenkins ' were asked additional questions on the government and history surrounding this locality. •This interview will be heard on radio April 18, at 9:15 over Gills Coffee Hour. BAKE SALE PLANNED BY FLINT HILL P.-T.A. ' The Flint Hill P. T. A. is having a Bake Sale at Bradford’s Store at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 9. Homemade, foods and candy will be on sale. 4 Candidates Vie For Rappahannock Sheriff Four candidates, Frank Huff, J. W. Critzer, J. E. Keyser and Joel Jenkins, have announced for the office of Sheriff in Rappahannock County. a Frank Huff, a resident of \yashington, affirms his running in a statement released this week. Age 33, Mr. Huff is married and the father of 3 children. He hsu served with the Armed Forces overseas duty and in civic affairs' is captain of the Washington Rescue Squad and a member of the Fire Department. J. E. Keyser, a well known • farmer and cattle dealer, also announced this week that he was a candidate. A native of Rappahannock, Mr. Keyser makes his home near Flint Hill. Although J. W. Critzer, the imeumbent, has not officially announced his candidacy, it is believed, generally, that he will enter the race. A resident of Washing-. ton for many years, Mr. Critzer was appointed to the office of sheriff May 18th, 1950 and elected in 1951. Joel Jenkins, inail carrier on the Front RoyaPCulpeper Route, declared his candidacy for the position last week. Mr. Jenkins lives in Flint Hill. Rapp’k Parents Urged To Sign Up Children For Vaccine Local School and Public Health Officials are very disappointed at the results of the polio vaccine survey. As of April 4th, only 231 parental consent slipshave been received ; this leaving TO eligible children in Rappahannock County that will not benefit from this program. Dr. Allman, Health Director, would like to urge alL the parents of these children to contact their family doctors, regarding this vaccine. The vaccine will not be given to any child unless it is approved; however, it is necessary to know the number to receive this vaccine so that final, clinic plans can be made and the order placed for the vaccine. Dr. J. P. Snead and Dr. E. M. Eastham have agreed to donate their time to give the immunizations. Again we would like to repeat; of .the 440,000 children receiving the Salk Vaccine last year, there were no cases of any reaction more than a sore arm or a slight fever, the degree of immunity it produces will be announced around April 12th. ' Plans now are to begin the Rappahannock Clinics on April 20th. If there are any parents who did not sign up for their child to be^ vaccinated and who would like to now, please contact the school teacher or the Health Department before April 12th when thea order for the vaccine will have to' be placed. * _ American Red Cross Roll Call Results Hampton District, $208.40, Mrs. W.

Supervisors Approve Tentative Budget; Hear Road Problems < The tentative; county budgjet, calling for no increase in the $3.25 levy, was approved by'the four Supervisors present at Wednesday’s meeting of the Board of Supervisors. «! Supervisor Campbell made a motion t^at the budget be adopted^ ' Estes seconded the motion and it was approved by JLatham and cook.:; • Hr , As this April ineetifig had been designated as a public road hear-, ing, P. D. Coldiroh, Resident Engineer, was present to hear the requests of citizens. Robert Frazier of Washington asked that a section of the Fodderstack Road 628, extending about 1 1/2 miles from the bridge, be worked on, with special emphasis on the culverts. - , : ' . ' ?, Supervisor iistes stated tnat tne road from Bradley Atkins’ station up to Old Hollow, 612, needed black top, surface treatment and additional work done, on k. Campbell asked that route 626, 2 miles to route 621, be blacktopped. Chairman Cook suggested that the road, from Appalachian Inn to Chester Gap Post Office, 610, 660, be improved. Following the brifcf toad hear*, •ing, Supervisor Estes brought up the issue of acquiring for the county a place to dump trash, stating that if the issue was not considered in the near future, the dumping of trash into rivers would indanger the bridges, as well as stir up other complications. ^ Deputy Sheriff Guy Burke explained to the Board that the jail was full of'termites, and that the court house was beginning to be invaded by .the pests. He asked thaf definite steps be taken to solve this problem. Supervisor Campbell and Clerk James M. 'Settle agreed to contact authorities and to present at the May meetings estimates given by exterminated James Atkins Dies After Long Illness A long brave battle for. life came to a dose here Tuesdaymorning when James Atkins died at his home in Sperryville, following several months of illness. A well loved citizen, he gave , much to the people of his community during his short life. Both in his business and personal dealings he “went the extra mile.” For 27 years he was the Sunday School Superintendent at Reynolds Memorial Baptist Qmrch and for 30 years he was church derk, in addition to acting as a deacon for many years. He was also a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 1150. Mr. Atkins was born the son or J. Walton and Maggie Atkins on July 2, 1906 in Luray. He spent part of his boyhood in Sperryville and graduated from Sperryville High School. Mr. Atkins entered, the Army during World War II rising to the rank of staff sergeant: in the 121 Combat Engineers. He met and married Mrs. Margaret Curry, December 27, 1950, while stationed in England. Returning: to the States, he, his wife and-her daughter, Maureen, made their home in Sperryville where Mr. Atkins was a merchant. r"** ' (Continued on P»l« .7)

BOWIE. . . .........PwUuktt Entered as secood-class mail matter at the post office at Washington, Virginia *UUSl KIPTION i (in advance) $2.00 a Sword of Hope . Back a few centuries when a literate person was a rare phenomenon in the American colonies, inn* keepers and tradesmen depended on pictorial signs for identification of their establishments. For a date at a tavern, one said, “I’ll meet you at the sign of the Brown Jug.” -r Or if you wished to find a barber, or a surgeon, you simply looked for the striped pole signifying both professions. That quaint but necessary custom . in our Country passed along with illiteracy, but it has its , parallel now in a familiar usage— ' that of identifying many phases of modern life with symbols. _ Today one of the most important of those symbols is the Amencan Cancer, Society’s sword. For years that sign, on a flag, a door, a window, or an inner wall, has been a rallying point for legions of socially-minded p e o p 1 e—physicians, research scientists, and laymen—all deeply concerned about cancer control. " This weapon, with serpents entwined around its hilt, symbolizes the most determined attack in our ? history on “mankind’s crudest enemy. nua it n<u» octomc uic Sword of Hope for thousands of former cancer patients whose lives were saved because of early detection and prompt and adequate treatment. Many more thousands can be saved annually if we use to the fullest the information and. skills now available in the medical' field. • Under the sign of the conquestof-cancer sword, hundreds of thousands of volunteers work in the Spring educational and fund-raising crusade of the ACS. Its goal for the whole nation for 1955 is $24,000,000, to be used for research toward finding new cures, service to patients, and education not only of doctors and scientists, but of all lay people in the United States, about the realities of cancer and the possibilities of defeating it. Again this year the public is being asked to support the national Society’s program, especially in j April, Cancer Control Month. It is our sincere hope that an aroused nation will take up the Sword of Hope and strike valiantly at cancer.

Programs are under the dirf Selective Service > Notice Captain Thomas W. White, State Director of Selective Service for Virginia, stated today that many local boards throughout the state are faced with the problem of boys coming in to register and giving an incorrect date of birth. While this is due to ignorance in some cases, in many other cases it is felt that a deliberate falsifica-. tion is made to secure a Registration Certificate and use the date of birth shown thereon to secure a work permit or for other reasons. A considerable amount of work is necessary (in the part of the local board clerk when a person registers, and an additional amount is added by cancellation of an improper registration, even though no classification action is'taken. Captain White pointed out that the Universal Military Training and Service Act, as amended, provides penalties up to five years imprisonment or a fine of $10,000, or both for being a party to making a false, improper, or incorrect registration, or for a person having’in his possession any certificate which he knows to be falsely made. ■* “While we hope that such drastic action will not be necessary, said Captain White, “when one local board reports 231 cancelled cases, a large majority of which were cancelled as underage, we feel that all persons concerned should be aware of the severe penalties provided for giving false information to their Selective Service boards.” JUapiain vvmic ai>u puimcu uui that persons required to be registered who do not register'within five days after reaching the age of .18 subject themselves to certain penalties provided for under the Universal Military Training and Service Act, as amended, including five years in prison or a fine of $10,000, or both.

TTie Rev. John R. Frizzell of Washington officiated. Members of the immediate families were present. s , Mrs. Stent is the granddaugh?ter of the late Dr. William -Thomas Williamson of Richi' mond, and the late Albert R.

Mr. Stent was graduated fromt the University of Southern Cali-. , fomia. . , After a wedding trip to the West Coast, the coupl? will make their home in New York City. . Can You Believe? Can you believe that Jesus thought of all people as evil? These are Jesus’ words taken from the fifth chapter of. the gospel according to Luke: “They that are whole need not a physician; hut they that are sick (do). I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to- repentance." These words were spoken by Jesus as he was being feasted by . Levi whom he had called to follow him. Levi, it seems, had the desire to follow Jesus and needed to put into action what he already knew he should, do. When he heard , Jesus’ call, “He left all, rose up, and followed him." ' We have many people today who know what they should do and how they should feel toward - God and man. They really are not evil at heart. Jesus calls all today—sinners to repentance, the righteous to follow him. Man’s Take Your i FUN Along! . Tike a LI6HTWIN...the perfect “take-atong” motor!

If he will examine himself and act according to the call of Jesus that he hears, through his knowledge of what he really should be doing, his life will take on purpose and ‘ God will impart to him a living hope that will sustain and keep him forever. Life remains drab to the righteous at heart until they actually put into practice what ' they determine as the will of God for them. We have many people who criticize the local churches as they seek to teach and inspire people to follow Jesus. Yet they fail to lend their minds and hands to the great job of correcting the mistakes they see and point out. It seems that God leads people to see the wrong for the purpose of enlisting their help in correcting said wrong. Can you believe that your help is needed in your community today? Jesus calls sinners to. repentance, and these same sinners are called to express their thanks by serving—helping other sinners saved by grace—in the great program of redeeming mankind. Are you one that would be thought of by Jesus as being “whole”, or are you in need of a physician ? Jesus calls the “whole” to follow Him; those who are sick He calls to repentance that they may be made whole and fit for service with him and his friVn/ls Easter is here again with its message of new life.
