/ WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE 1*. 1955 Fries $2.00 PER YI OBSERVATIONS PRO cob The following Kites were scribbled almost a century ago by an anonymous soldier of the Confederacy: I asked God for strength, that I might ,achieve -4-1 was mjade weak, that I might learn hutrtbly to obey. ■ j [. J ' ' I asked for help that I might do greater things—1 was given infirmity, Ithat I might do better things. j I asked for riches, that I might be happy—I was given poverty, that I might be wises. < I asked for all things, that I might sbjoy life—I was given life, that*? might enjoy all things. I got nothing that I asked for— but everything I had hoped for.; Despite fnyself, my prayers were answered. 1 am, among all men, most richly blessed. o o o o We can expect most anything in Rappahannock. When we head’d this week that one of our popular fish raisers had to perform a Caesarean operation on one of his Guppys we decided that anything is possible here. j' f> ex-Presktenta wen at one time connected with the seme firm— Abraham Lincoln, Chester A. Arthur, Ulysses S. Grant, Grover Cleveland and William McKinleybe the first to name the firm and receive a year's subscription to the News. J Last week’s question was answered at approximately the same time by Mrs. Pearl Coffey and Mrs. Annie Mary Welch. Samuel Tilden received a plurality over Rutherford B. Hayes, yet Hayes was elected by 5 senators, 5 Representatives and 6 Justices of the Supreme Court, becausethe votes of Louisiana, South Carolina andj Florida were in dispute. [ CHARLIECOATES’ CONDITION IMPROVED^ Charlie Coates remains a patient in the University of Virginia Hospital. According t olatest reports from his family, his condition is improved. Gore Family Hold Annual Reunion The Annual Reunion of the Gore Family was held Sunday, June 12 at Jackson Hill, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Bruce. Among the guests were Dr. and Mrs. B. C.

Mr. and Mrs. B. M. Miller, Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Estes,, Mr. and Mrs. Pete Estes; Mr. and Mrs. Field Benton, Mrs. Annie Gore Bruce, Mr. and Mrs. George Taylor, the Rev. and Mrs. John Frizzell and Mrs. Rosa Burton. . The family get-together began years ago when each year at the birthday of Mrs. J. T. Gore, the clan would gather to wish her happiness; Following her death, the family decided to continue the custom of the annual meeting to catch up on how the children were progressing in school and what the grown ups had done during the year. Last year the family met with the William Shuler family in Arlington. Plans have not yet been made for the 1956 Reunion. ■ ‘.-•V • . i ii ;M » fi * Rapp’k Pony Club Organized Sunday The Rappahannock Pony Club was organized Sunday afternoon in a meeting of interested persons at Leeway Farm, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Leon Greenaway.

M “A Fishey Story,” l Calls It - ' ^a v; Fisherman Janies M. Settle lias done it again. You may think this is another ohe of his fish tales. His question of the week is “I wonder if GUPPIES will make good br“ bait?” He will be in a position find out soon. There are quite^ few new mouths to be fed at Settle residence. Fisherman was beginning to think that Caesarean was in order until t night of June 9th his golden veiltail guppy gave birth to fifty (50 fry. (The young are referred to fry.) The golden veil-tail guppy one of many strains of the gupp; family. Scientifically they ar known as Lebistes reticulatus, pronounced le-bis-tees re'-tick-you-latus. This colorful little tropical fish is one of the best for home aquariums because of his hardiness and the ease with which it can be raised. The guppy is from the class of fish known as live-bearers which refers to giving birth to live young rather than by laying eggs as most fish do. There are many varieties and strains of guppies, several of which can be seen in Fisherman Settle’s Aquarium—the golden veil-tail; grey veil-tail; common grey; and the grey veiltail sword tail. | I ne live-bearers must be piacea in a separate container when they are about to have their young because other fish will eat the fry. Even the mother will eat her {young if not removed soon after giving birth. I Other live-bearers in Fisherman Settle’s Aquarium are the Black Mollie; Black Moon; Velvet redwagtail-swordtail; tuxedo wagtailswordtail ; and the Golden wagtail-swordtail. I The egg laying fish in this tank are the Angel Fish; Zebras; Neontetras; and the catfish. | All of the above-mentioned fish gjet along very well in a community tank. As in all groups you usually find a bully; this is true of tropic cal fish too. TTie Black Mollie is the guilty one in this aquarium.

Frizzell, recently appointed to fill the unexpired council term o'f the late Mr*. J. W. Price, was welcomed by the Town Council in their June meeting held Tuesday night in the Town Hall. Mrs. Morgan Johnston was asked for a report on the possibility of acquiring an outside mail box, in front of the post office. She reported that Postmaster W. A. Miller had consulted die inspector and he felt that there was not a need for an outside mail t>ox. A suggestion was then made that a box could be put under the slot in the door so the letters would not fall onto the floor. (The council would assume the cost of this box.) Mrs. Johnston will discuss this matter with the postmaster. Mrs. Johnston also reported that the rest of the town folders order will be off the press Saturday. These folders can be obtained, at no cost, from any place of business in Washington or from a member of the town council. Various reports were heard and discussed; on the repair of a town bench; the painting of the entrance signs (which has not been completed due to the rainy Saturdays) ; the painting of yellow "no parking” lines in the driveway of Miss Annie Miller Almond; the improving of the road leading up Blue Ridge Avenue; and the repairing of the town television set. ;(As previously reported this set is undergoing complete repair and : overhauling at the expense of the Strombefg-Carlson Company.) .

Flint Hill A. C.’s Play 10 Innings Of Errorless Ball Defeat Stephen City 10*5 have greatly line up since The A. C.ts strengthened their their game with Os k Grove. They have added Lawrence Shifflett’s and Bill Wood’s jiames to their roster. Shifflett, did a wonderful job behind the plaje and worked the pitcher welL j McCarty was jgoing “great guns” until die ninfh when be began to tire. Our ifranager called Riley in from the “bull pen” -to relieve him. This proved to T>e # wise move since Stephens City only reached him for 2 hits. These came in quick succession. Richards greeted Riley with a single and Welch followed with a triple to tie the game up at 5-5. Wit|i the winning run on third our reliable reliefer set them down in or< er. Flint Hill not to b r denied came battling back in tie 10th and iscored 5 nltis on- thr * Hits. Riley retired the side withe ut mishap to end the game. i We think the whole Flint Hill team should be confmended for backing up their pitcher so well. Any team that improves sip much on so little practice ^ertaihly deserves a “well done.* Ouij little short stop gave a good account of himself by (making what anyone would call sensational stops. Perbuted to an Stephenson, haps this could be attr I admiring audience. The A. C.’s go to Sunday, and we feel su)re they will chalk up another victory if they play the same class of j ball, cart be assured of a good follov if they do. i —John Kjeyser Harrington - tfrewer Luther Daniel Harrington, Jr.i son of the Reverend | Ethel E.V Harrington, of Sperryville, and Mi?

Crowding Plants j Frequent Fault' L« * ■ i One of the number one faults of beginners in the vegetable garden is crowding plants. | Horticulturists at VPI say many gardeners fail to thin out the seedlings so each remaining plant has enough room to develop! properly. They suggest thinning plants of row crops out to stand one inch apart. As they grow, reprove alternate plants, and s° on until the best spacing is achieved. Many of the excess root and leaf plants can be used on the table. Follow directions on seed packets and in your planting guide for recommended spacings for different crops. • rssootwoossooaiBssoooossoc J_ TIRE SERVICE BARRON’S You Can’t Afford to Miss The Money Saving »RED TAG $ALE« . / . . - ' '0/>r y*W # Sale begins June 16 - Ends July 2 AT * Western Auto Store Paint, outside or inside, Red Tag Prices AUTO PARTS—Do It Yourself—NOW Auto and Truck Tires—Red Tag Prices Plastic Hose, 50 feet.$2.98 Complete Tool and Hardware Dept. 20" Window Fans.$27.95 20' Fan-on-Wheels..$44.95 Coolers tors %-ton . $189.95 Hassock Fans ..$21.95 to $30,95 17" Truetone TV . $129.95 21’ Truetone TV .console .$199.95 Truetone Radios and Record Players Automatic V£asher .Wizard.$199.95 Wizard Master Washer ..$99.95 Wizard Irons, steam or electricity Roll-About Utility Table .. $6.95 Wizard Gas Ranges .... $99.95 - $149.95 Wizard Electric Range . $149.95 ■ Automatic Hot Water Heater .... $89.95 8" Wizard Husky Fan Reg. $5.25 .. $3.98 Flashlight and 2 Batteries Reg. 97c 69c 7-pc.

There were examples of good design in furnishings around * the room, that were taken from stock in the store. They were the kinds, of things that could be purchased in any reliable store with careful shopping. Miss Jamison pointed out some things to be remembered when buying. One of these was to put most of your money in a rug, rather than in small accessories. There are several kinds of rugs to fit various budgets, from inexpensive fiber through braided, rayon pile, and wool and rayon twist, considered the best. , As a rug is considered practically a lifetime investment, careful choice of the best quality in plain surface was advised. Design was next discussed by Miss Jamison. She held up a dear crystal water glass with heavy bottom that would look well with any china' and silver, and compared it wSth a gayly pointed one that would look well with few table settings and told the audience that the price was the same for both styles. The qualities to look for in design are: it attracts and holds interest, it is not monotanous or realistic, but simple, it must be in scale, it must be usable, easy to achieve, simple, and it must create a moode. To illustrate these points, chests of drawers, tables, chairs, lamps, picture frames were all in natural wood of different kinds and periods. Fabrics, china lamps, ash trays and flower bowls were all in “earth tones, from the softest pink of early dawn to the darkest green of the forest. Plants and evergreens, pine and fruit were used to bring life into the groupings. Stylized design in chintz was shown to be a smart choice of pattern in most any type of informal room. .Large pottery bowls, "soup DOW IS, as sue them, are new for ash trays, and are more than adequate. “Avoid many small spots for a restful room,” said Miss Jamison. These spots include small scatter rugs, small ash trays, more than one fabric design, tiny, useless lamps and frilly doilies and small planters. She challenged those present to try a large plain rug, balanced groupings of accessories, furniture of simple design and earth tone colors to bring true beauty and livability into the home. Those Homemakers Club members who attended the from Rappahannock were Mrs. Les Walter, of Amissville, Mrs. D. D. Miller and Mrs. Powers home agent from Washington, and Mrs. W. A. Gentry and Miss Lelia Gentry of Flint Hill. Amissville News Mrs. Hallie Simpson of Wash• n C. was a week-end guest of Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Doyle. , .

It’s an old story, but still an important one, say poultry specialists at VPI. The specialities point out that nearly every egg produced on the farm is top quality when laid. Keep it top-quality. Prevent the eggs from getting dirty in the nest by: keeping the nest supplied with dean, dry nesting material; keeping the floors of the laying house clean and dry; and keeping the birds confined on wet days so they will not tract dirt in the nest. Protect the eggs from high temperatures by: penning up brooding hens so they can't sit on the nest; gathering eggs two or three times a day in wire baskets so the air can circulate through them; and storing them in a coot, damp place. Take them to market often, > , A grade AA egg will become inedible in three days at 98°, in eight days at 77°, in 65 days at 44°, in 100 days at 37°. But it usually will still be grade A at the end of six months if held at a temperature just above freezing.

STOKES : At The Bridge in FRONT ROYAL A TRIBUTE Mrs. Louise Miller Price was a teacher in the schools of. Rappahannock County for 23 years and in the schools in West Virginia for 4 years. She served faithfully and efficiently until a short while before her death in Washington, Virginia, on May 3, 1955. While she is no longer with us in person, she will continue to live in the hearts and minds of the teachers with whom she worked and the pupils who were privileged to be in her classroom. As we think of her, there are certain qualities that set her apart and that are particularly significant of the force and charm of her personality. She loved beauty. Evidence of this love was seen in her classroom, her home, and wherever she moved. She was loyal to her friends, her profession and to her God—and this loyalty endeared her to all who knew her. She was courageous, continuing with her work at school and in the community far beyond the usual limits of human endurance. She was a good teacher, seeing her classes not as groups but rather as individual children and striving to fit her teaching to the need of each child. She will be remembered by many' boys and girls for her kindly guidance and encouragement. Mrs. Price will be missed in the professional activities of the Rappahannock Education Association, but wp shall carry forward the inspiration which we have received over the years from her attitude and example. We are better because she lived among us. Mary M. Quaintance Mary H. Winfrey Leslie Fox Keyser " s, Chairman Resolutions Cdfnmittee, Rappahannock Education Assoc.

WRITE OR CALL MRS. HELEN M. KILBY Phono 2881 SPERRYVILLE Farm Price Outlook (This is the way prospects for Virginia farm prices looked to the Virginia Department of Agriculture on Friday. The Department offers it to farmers with .the warning that no one can predict prices and be right all the time.) BARLEY * It will probably pay again this year to store barley on the farm for at least three months after harvest. Delayed by weather, barley marketings still are not heavy, buf prices have dropped 20 to 25 cents from mid-May in anticipation of the new crop. Last/ week in Virginia barley averaged 90 cents to $1 a bushel for U. S. No. 2 and three or four cents less for U. S. No. 3. When harvesting starts in earnest, prices usually drop off 'some more, given a normal crop. Virginia’s crop this year probably will be about the same as last year’s 3,978,000 bushels. Acreage over the nation is up 9%, but yields probably will be down some. Three to five months from now, barley prices probably will be 12 to 20 cents higher, judging by past years. Grain put in good farm storage at about 13% moisture should net about half of this increase. WHEAT Growers with good quality wheat, even with garlic, may have a close choice this year between commercial storage under loan and sale to millers on the free market. Virginia’s interim loan rate will be $2.23 to $226 a bushel for the 1955 crop, less storage charges and a 15-cent discount for garlic. There may also be a problem with the new sanitary requirements. On the other hand, soft Red winter wheat for milling is relatively short in supply, and millers probably will be buying good wheat with garlic and paying close to the support price less storage and discounts for it. Also, the free market discount for garlic will be closer to 10 cents .than 15. When harvest comes, it will pay to get a pencil and do some figuring. With approved farm storage, a man can store and work it either way. There is little if any commercial storage for barley in Virginia, but the wheat storage situation has eased some from last year.
