We were always of the opinion that a persons property was private and trespassing is a violation of thi laW. Then why should a property owner be called •a dlT^piroperty that Ms taxes « w paid to protect? Recently a pro >erty owner came in the office to purchase some of the signs that v am trespassers to stay off. He sa d a few days before six automol dies of beer drinkers and gamble s had been in his orchard, and he felt that with that kind of behavu ur going on his buildings and property were not safe. We agree with him, but we also feel that His tax money is paid to protect lis property, o o o a Again we art going to remind you of the necessity for Are prevention in Rappahannock.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County Virgin is / DIAL WASHINGTON 2861 BRUCE S. BOWIE. ..Publuko Entered as second-class mail matter at the post u&cc at Washington, Virginia sOUaCKlPTlON : tin advanc^) UXlb a yeat JHE FORERUNNER ; ' A lone man strode through the fields. The summary wind skined tight his loose garment of goat’s hair thrown carelessly around his rawbony frame. Slowing down, the gaunt figure peered in several directions, then turning to the left, quickened his pace as if relucant to lose the minutes of stopping time . v. Zechariah and Elizabeth had frequently told him the strange story pi his birth. The townpeople, 1 too, had looked ?on John with interest, wondering “What iis this child going to do for the Lord’s hand was upon him from the beginning.’’ But soon they grew forgetful. As , years passed and the chiitd became a youth, time veiled the miracle. Remembrance was faint among the villagers. Not so with the aged parents; for they constantly -reminded John of the manner1 in which the Lord had spoken unto 4-ecnarian: your wife, Elizabeth, will bear you a son, and you are to name him John. This will bring gladness and delight to you, and many will rejoice over his birth. For he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He will drink no wine or strong drink, but he will be filled with the Holy, Spirit, from the very birth . . John t>ad listened and pondered as to what would be his mission. He too was aware of something different, of some powerful force leading him to an end but the nature of the end puzzled him. Then came the day when his youth was behind him and he was compelled by the yet unknown quantity within him to retire to the quietness of the wilderness. There in solitaary communion with God he tore apart his ideas, he opened his complete consciousness to Trod and listened for the quantity to take on an identity. The answer came—not in a flash of light—but in a deepening of aware ^ ness within him. All was still not clear. He only knew that he was the man, chosen—-not as the Messiah. Th£ childhood prophecy had been confirmed and strengthened in definite terms. Keeping this unraveling in mind, John left the wilderness not to organize a new sect W to inaugurate new political movements but to proclaim a message and issue a summons. From these wilderness day's John had" realized the hugheness of his work. But the seemingly impossibility of accomplishing the end only made John more dauntless. His legs were long and usejl to distances. It was hard to slow down. Something urged him to hurrv. Yet, glancing back at the men in the distance, running to catch up with him, he reminded himself that he must wait for them to get into condition, constantly retelling the message, helping them overcome their short breathness until they could keep pace with liim. The laymen and the clergy must be prepared for the coming. They must understand that though thev were already somewhat prepared by the teachings of Isaiah and others of the prophets,* they were still ff from the kingdom. ' Another step was to be built upon this initial one. Only after realizing their unreadiness would seek preparations of mind and heart. To remind them of the teachings of the prophets and to lead them to venture towards the higher steps, John appeared. * “All Judea and everybody in Jerusalem went out to him.” In their midst John stood. It had not been difficult to gather crowds. News of his blazing voice with its fiery denuniations and its soothings encouragements had swiftly run through the countryside. “As he had brooded on the signs of the times, the barren trees of the desert, fit only for burning and the vipers fleeing before the flaming scrub, became enblerns of the nation’s peril and had lent color to his warnings of impending wrath.” Some had come in curiosity, to see this God-preaching fanatic and his followers who fasted for days; others for the thrill or the easiness of following the crowd. Economic conditions were poor, taxes were high and overpopulation caused unrest. The people looted for a change. Messianic agitation was reaching its peak. Hearing of the message of John they thought that this must be either the Messiah or perhaps a bearer of news of the Messiah. To all John spoke, in terms they could readily comprehend. Looking beneath their countenance he touched the sore spots; he pressed hard. To the Pharisees, “for choking religion with the bonds of ceremonalism.” and to the Saducees "for starving religion with husks of materialism and wordly conditions.” "You brood of snakes! Who warned you to excapc from the wrath that is coming? Then produce frtiit that will be consistant with your professed repentance.” And they angered by his revealing their sins and unwilling to leave their comfortable law for this disturbing one, refused to be baptised,by him. To Herod, the governor of Perea, because of Herodias, his brother’s wife, he spoke strong phases of condemnation. And Herod, hearing, flinched. “Repent ye and be baptised for the kingdom of heavfcn is at hand”, The thundering summons crashed through the calm of the desert. Although thmemessage disturbed them, they could but listen. Not relying on the merits of their forefathers, they must question theirown merits and then feeling the need of clensing they would give external signs of the inward change of attitude -then would follow as a matter of course a change in their physical relationships. Bartism would be the initial external appearance of the in'ner change. Pohri swing their need for the practical - a way famiiliar totheir everyday dealings gave them specific examples; Do not collect any more than you are authorised to. Do not exort money or make false charges against people, but be satisfied with your pay. The man who has two shirts must share with the man who has none, and the man who has food must share of the same. This was a startling way to usher into a new age - not by immediate and glorious victory over Israels enemies, as they had dreamed it would be but by a swift and stern judgegment against all who had not repented In fact Israel’s punishment would be more harsh as her “talants" had been more numerous. Many, anxious to see the coming One, persisted in believing that Pohn w«s the Christ. His answer was clear in its understanding of his mission: "I am only baptising you in water but someone is coming who is stronger than I am, whose shoes I am not fit to untieHe will baptise you in the Holy Spirit and fire.” Pohn’s popularity was great . His message was producing a religious awakening. The situation was becomng uneasy. The Pohn who had first been looked on as * fanatic and indulgently allowed to give his teachings was now becoming a source of irritation. Once harmless, now he was dangerous. Hehad even confessed to have baptised a Messiah: “This is the man of whom 1 spoke when I said, ‘After me there is coming a man Who is even now ahead of me, for he has existed before me! I did not know him,but it is in order that he may bbe made known to Israel that l have come and baptsed people in water. I saw the Spirit come down from heaven Hike a dove, and it remained upon him. I did not know hjm, but he who sent me to baptise in water said to me, ‘The one on whom you see the S p i r i t come down and remain, is the one who is to baptise in the holy spirit., And I did see it, and I testify that he is theSon of God.”, People were following John's preachings in increasing number. His attacks were even more forthright, each falling with a sting. He allowed no compromise. Theheedled sinners withdrew. Having no iarmor, they looked for a unique idie’ P;i e tkk iii !rg -j, taoi eta weapon. The weapon appeared] in the crowning irysut of harsh woljds continually, shaming Herodias Driven by the antagonized Herodias and resentful of John’s profound influence on his subjects. Herod ordered his inpriisonment. Doubtelss, the stubborn consciences of the sinners rejoiced at the removal of thiis disturber, t To John iir seemed as if his mission were at a close. His hands had rested upon the head of the "Coming One”; theMessiah was here, but as he waited the news of the Messiah’s workings and as rfone came., he began to doubt. Maybe he had faiied, the time might not be in preparation-his habitual haste-perhaps this had been his undoing. 'How was he to know except he heard. When his deciples came with the news of the outside world, forthey sometimes visited him there, John questioned them closely. On one visit .they had news of a man who was performing miracles and de -iivcrmg iu mr John had said the Messiiah was to do. Their information was incomplete; they knew only heresay. Though John was strengthened he wanted eye witnesses. Directing them to go to “this man” John turned from the prison door and waited The deciples met “the Man.” It is not known as to whether they went back to John to relate the good news. However as Jesus so disclosed to John s* siondisciples the greatness of their leader. His forerunner, and his faithful accomplishment of his mission, so God must have disclosed to John, as he waited within the prison, his fulfillment of his mission and the exultation that suffuses the runner as the tape breaks over his chest after a race run hard and swift must have been doubly his. His relentless teachings led to his death. As his message had tasted the richness of Jesus teachings so John’s death '“foreshadowed”^ death of the Messiah. Johrt the Baptist in his cheap attire symbolising a distainment of ease and luxury ushered in the New Messianic Age. In his blunt manner, he prophesied a new era to which he did not belong. “He1 was the line between the law and the prophets and the kingdom of God.” There was a man'sent from God. His was the way of one who, after clearing away the brambles and sinking deep the hoe orcaas the first clods; the way of one whp oik the parchment and stretches it upon the scroll. Only then could the seeds be planted and only then could the Master’s hand pick up the quill and begin his message.

(Signed) Bruce S. Bowie CREDIT BUYING MEANS NEW KIND OF ECONOMY In the present propensity to live off the cuff it’s Mid that this is the normal instinct of a new generation to whom the monthly payment has become as natural as breathing. . The present generation differs from its predecessors in dedicating most of its income to contractual payments before earning it. Whereas the present day housewife's abiding anxiety is to keep the family credit alive, her, mother operated almost wholly on a cash basis, although just as despairingly perhaps. If this were the crux of the matter there wouldn’t appear to be much cause for alarm even though corguimer and mortgage indebtedness are reaching fabulous proportions. But when there’s evidence that the majority of American families are spending their income before earning it certain other extremely relevant considerations arise. Obviously people^ who obligate themselves in dollars of a certain purchasing power will stand to gain if they are permitted to repay in depreciated dollars. Perhaps they would have as much to lose if their personal savings exceeded what they owed on their homes, cart and other possessions bought on term payments. But it’s doubtful whether liquid savings exceed personal indebtedness except in the case of the upper 10 per cent of income earners. What this ascending scale of indebtedness is doing, accordingly, • is to. create a large and growing category of people with a vested interest in inflation. And when this circumstance is combined with the fact that government at all levels also is living chronically. beyond its means, the political bias on the side of more inflation becomes practically overwhelming.

Jenkins of F.T. •* „ Valley were Mr. and Mrs. Bunny Settle and daughter of Castleton and Mr. add Mrs. Calvin Walters of Laurel, Maryland. Monday night supper guests of Mr. and Mr*. Clarence Jenkins were Atha Brown of Sperryville and Jack Cornell of Marshall. Miss Pauline Jenkins is con- ^ - fined to her home since she cut her . hand Sunday while at work. ordinary commercial dry cleaning methods. Others, the ads claim, are “water resistant,” “stain and spot resistant,” or “lint free.” . However* some bugaboos are drawing up in tests. Drydeaners are finding that special equipment, special methods, and train personnel are needed for good results. This means higher cleaning costs. Since the cost is higher, the owner usually wears the leather garment longer before having it cleaned, and so makes a satisfactory job of cleaning even more difficult. Even with careful handling, shrinkage has been a problem. Spots and stains do not seem to come out much easier than on garments without a special finish. Water resiistant finish needs to be applied after each cleaning. Loss of color and linting are troublesome. Special cleaning methods are necessary for satisfactory results. The leather cannot be cleaned the same way as woven or knitted garments. Color change is usually to a darker shade, caused by mechanical action in .cleaning which lifts the pile on the surface, or by abrasion, rubbing or friction while the garment is being worn. Some areas of the garments become darker while others which do not receive the friction remain the original color. Linings sometmes give way during the first cleaning. Check labels as to service of lining. Some are guaranteed for the life of the garment. Miss Johnson says to consider the additional cost of care and upkeep of leather garments before you decide to include them in the family wardrobe. Remember the possibility of shrinkage and color change. Read the label carefully. Do some comparative,shopping. i 111 . .~l TV REPAIRS CALL 916 FRONT ROYAL FOR Prompt Service ON ALL MAKES OF TELEVISIONS MOORE’S RADIO AND Television Service FRONT ROYAL
