TEACHERS EXPLAIN HOIV READING’S TAUGHT What’s new in school ? Come to your Parent-Teacher Association meetings and get the latest. Af our last meeting we had a very interesting discussion about reading, as it is taught in the primary grades. Can’t your child spell f Or maybe he can’t read well enough to suit you. If this is the case, our own panel of experts can sdrely help you. Miss Mary Jenkins, Mrs. Leonard and Mrs. Cox were on hand to explain current teaching problems concerning reading, phonics versus phonetics. Min jenrins torn tne inreresrea parents how she began the child’s reading training by visual aids,! i.e. colors, pictures, cards. In the first grade the child is taught to recognize the word, like a.picture, rather than to sound out the letters in jthe word. The foundation for thi$ is laid by teaching color 'patterns, pictures of familiar objects. The child learns to discipline his mind jby coloring pictures, staying within the lines. He is trained to becone more observant, and encouraged to tell stories about his experiences that relate to the picture. Along the yrty he is busy learning nis numbers. These are ways of teaching the observation of shapes ajid size. In about six weeks, the chtld is reajdy to read. The first primer has seventeen words which are Repeated twelve times. The eniphaiis is on I recognition by form. At tbe ($ecP.-T.

Women Tie One All As Flint Hill Takes Second Game 33-23 Revenge tasted sweet Sunday afternoon as the Flint Hill women gave die Washington women a dose of their medicine of the Sunday before, defeating the Washington team, 33-23. Having each won one game, the Flint Hill j and Washington lady teams will 'meet this Sunday at 2:30 on the Moffett diamond to play off the tje. The Flint Hill girls moved ahead in their frame of the first,, then fell behind as the Washington team rallied. Soon, however, the Flint Hill team, with plenty of fresh recruits on the bench, surged ahead to outplay and defeat; the tired batdescared Washington ladies. There was no complacency anytime during the game, for a 10 or 15 run lead can be cut down to naught in one inning, when there are women at bat and on the field.

Mrs. Davis’s partner was Mr. Lavencher, councilman from a small town in upstate New York. is 300 pounds left little room on the TV screen for anyone else. Mrs. Davis said the question asked her most frequently since she arrived home Sunday morning was "Did he really weigh 300 pounds-” "No,” he didn’t weigh 300, he weighed 338 pounds.” Motoring to Washington, D. C. Friday, Mrs Davis boarded a plane for New York. The arrangements very “cut and dried,” were made by Herb Shriner’s staff. “We didn’t see anymore of him. in person, than you did on your TV set. “He is actually better looking than he is on the screen.” After asking Mrs. Davis and her partner a few questions about their home towns, Herb explained the game to the contestants. (Of 3 couples appearing on each show, Mrs. Davis and her partner were the third.). The question is asked, usually-name such and such. In turn the partners must name the required items, continuing until a buzzer denotes a wrong answerjor die end of the allotted time. The quiz depends almost as much on alertness and quickness a? on knowledge. * m the. first question gives »uu ^ for each correct answer. Theirs was “Name as many as you can persons who have part in building « home” (like electrican, stonemason, etc;) Dorothy and her partner answered seven of these, running their bankroll to $35. Each, item named in the second round would be worth $35. "Name as many counties outside of continental United States that can be visited without a visa.” Six of tpese were answered by the two, giving them $210. In the final round, each item would thus be worth $210. Then came the rub. —• “Since 1779, we have minted a large number ot coins (the number was here named). Starting in their order of worth, name as many as you can. Mrs. Davis started with %c, Mr. Lavencher continued—‘ lc. Although she thought there might be a 2c piece, Mrs. Davis decided not to risk it "5c”. The buzzer sounded, for not only is there a 2c piece but there is also a 3c piece, a half dime and countless other such ‘crazy real gone' money, including a 71,4 c piece. The couple however, had run their earnings to $420, and had had the thrill of being on a Television program, so all ended well. ~ * Halloween Party At Flint Hill School ’ Friday, October 28 Don’t forget to take the family to the Flint Hill Halloween Party at the school, Friday night, October 28, beginning at 7:15. Copv' plete details, including the featured horrors and the prizes offered are ’ given undfcr School News on page three.

Neville Wood, riding; her own My Pride*, brought Home the Reserve. Championship being only one point behind Oliver Durant, II’s Trafalgar which just returned from Tennessee where he was entered in the 3-Day Event. . N 1 Traffic on the highway came to a startled halt as nine enthusiastic juniors followed 15 couple of hounds running a drag-around the steeplechase course. Judging by the whoops and hollers, this was a popular class with the spectators who also cheerfully helped round up the hounds afterwards. The exhibitors and their guests were invited to at party in the dub house after the trials. x RESULTS Local Hunters' — 1st., Venus, Michael Marsh 2nd., Trafalgar, Oliver Durant, HE; 3rd, My Pride, Neville Wood; 4th, Blue, Leeway Stables, ; Light WeightHunters — 1st, My Pride; 2nd, Debrock, Langborne Williams; 3rd, Living Image, Mrs. A.

Entered as se<;uhd -class mad matter ai the post office at Washington, Virginia ’BSCRimON 'm advance) ----$2.00 a year OCTOBER... , Month of Beauty October, now? almost ended, is thought by many to be the most beautiful month of the year. October was the eighth month of the year in the ancient Roman calendar, and that is where Oct comes from in October—meaning eight. . In the United States, October bring* the first really cool wear fher Of Jail, produces a majestic panorama in the woods and for7 ests of the nation, and produces great sports events with the midseasoh 'climaxes of the college football year. ; It is the month in which Columbus landed in America, on October 12, 1492. The cornerstone of the White House was laid on October 13, 1792. A prize of $500 had been offered for a design for the Wfhite House and James Hoban, an architect from Charleston, South Carolina, won it. Of more current interest, October 14th is the birthday of President Eisenhower and the month also contains the birthday anniversaries of several ex-Presidents, among them being John Adams, the second President of the U. S., whose birthday faHs on October 19; Chester A. Arthur, the 21st President of the United States was born October 5th; and Rutherford B. Hayes, the 19th President of the United States, who was bom October 4th. Hallowe’en, a time when the' year’s most hilarious festivity occurs, falls in October—on the last day of the month. It had its beginning long before the dawn of the Christian Era. Today, Hallowe’en is not a mysterious, mystid observance and has little, if any religious significance. The custom of wearing robes and masks on Hollowe'en originated in parly times when it was thought that witches and ghosts were most likely to wander about on that night. This is a part of the mystic atmosphere which surrounded Hallowe’en among the early people, including the Druids, who also thought the iord of death cajied together the* souls of the wicked at Hallowe’en and " condemned them to inhabit the bodies of animals. But as time passed, it seems that the “souls of the wicked’’ have been converted to the degree of being merely mischievous and have been transferred from bodies of animals to those of every tot and oldster, too, who are young at heart and physically able to join the neighborhood “gangs’’ of celebrants each year. They rove the town in high glee, throwing their neighbors into moods varying from rib-tickling laughter to stark dismay. And we believe there is no more fitting way to observe the passing of the “Golden Month”, than celebrating Hallowe’en so long as the revelers abide by the Golden Rule, and play no prank on anyone they would not like played on them-* selves. *__ - . LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Sir: Due to some recent questions concerning the value of home demonstration and club work in the county, a resume of club work was developed. The home agent is responsible for all girls club work in the county and assists the farm agent. There are eight 4-H Clubs in the county at the following schools ISE BUYS! : mm m r«:>' IS ED CAR I 1950 PLYMOUTH Club Coupe .. $525.00 1951 CHRYSLER Windsor, 4-door.$1095.00 1950 BUICK 4-door Super. $695.00 1950 DESOTO, Custom, 4-dr., radio, heater $695.00 1950 PLYMOUTH Deluxe, new paint, heater $495.00 1940 PONTIAC 4-door'. $60.00 ( 1 ' _ ' 1936 FORD 2-door ... $50 00 RUSSELL BROS., INC.

In these clubs are 104 mrtnbers, both boys and girls. Among the project canted out by these youngsters are Health and Safety, Room Improvement, three units of sewing, So You’d Like To Sew, Make and Remake and Advanced Clothing Construction, Meal Preparation; Canning and Freeing, Breads, Dairy, Electric, Sheep, Market Hogs, Beef Cattle, Dairy Heifer, Baby Beef, Corn, Potatoes, Garden, Home Beautification and Poultry. Livestock Judging is also taught in 4-|H and teams from the county have won honors in State contests. All kinds of skill® useful farm living and operation taught in these projects. Greater skill in homemaking and management, clothing construction and wardrobe planning, a greater appreciation for the needs of others, a better community spirit,development of personal responsibility, all these and more values arc received by being an active club member. There'is one feature that most older club members agree upon that is the 4-H Club membership enabled them to speak before an audience without fear. In these days of radio, television and public address systems, organizations and comurtity projects it is a valuable asset to be able to speak effectively. There are several annual events that have come to mean much to club members and the community. They are the annual achievement day set this year for November 11, when all clubs may exhibit their handiwork. Observation of 'National 4-H Club week in March, when a turkey dinner is served Each May the clubs observe Rural Life Sunday in the churches. Three club members attended the State short course at Blacksburg (this year. The county council has several social events each year. This year an honor club was formed of outstanding members and leaders. Forty-three children from this county attended camp for otie week this summer. They would all vouch for the value of this privi • One member qualified to enter an area contest. One other girl won a State contest in community relations. Two girls furnished entertainment for a ladies club meeting. Junior leaders are being trained to help their younger club members. The highest type of citizenship is developed in 4-H as its motto and pledge asset. It is no idle promise that is made when one says “I pledge my head to clear thinking, my heart to greater loyalty, my hands to greater service arid my health to better living, for my club, my community and my country. Motto: To make the best better. —A Citizen Letter To The Editor Just as our County Agent assists farmers organize for group study and group action, our Home Agent helps the women (as well as the 4-H girls) through organization, in attaining a better Ii\ing standard for every home. Through the organization of Home Demonstration Clubs in communities she attempts to reach all interested women (interested in,their neighbors and community) through this worthwhile work. The principal- purpose of these organizations is to develop leadership and help the women help themselves by understanding better ways of doing things—better ways which have resulted fr>m scientific study and experiment. It is exceedingly difficult to accurately evaluate all that a Home Agent rontributes to this educational program. We as H. D. members are certain of one thing, the H. D. Agent should be continued in Rappahannock County’. There is much to be done in our County and we feel it endeavor. The goals set by our Federation of H. D. Clubs, the jfxr of assistance by Extension Servn: and the wiilopness of our Agent leaves us hut oi rselves to blame if our County is not outstanding in every way—health, nutrition, homes, happiness, etc. At present, there are ten organized H. D. Clubs with a total of 257 members in Rappahannock Co.; Amissville, Flint Hill, Washington, Sperryville, Woodville, F. T. Valley, Slate Mills, Castleton, Viewtown and Huntly. Beside H. D. Club guidance, demonstration etc, plus 4-H Club work, our Home Agent in 1955, through September, made visits to 101,1 homes in the County to give information requested. She has had 40 result demonstrations in improvement of kitchens, living , rooms, installation of wafer, house remodeling, etc. Some of the community activities of H. D. Clubs in our County in 1955 are as follows: H untly—Money to R e a g e r School for use of school paper, aft paper, pencils, games, etc. Flint Hill — $5.00 for street lights, 4 4-H leaders helping with community and County 4-H activities. Washington — Gift to deserving family at Easter. Sperryvilte — Work with 4-H clubs, 4 4-H leaders in charge of summer projects and help with all county projects.

WASHINGTON, VA. Does money really grow on trees? Certainly not for most folks—but for a couple of million people it seems to. TBey are people who get their electricity from power plants owned by the federal government. They pay less for electric service than other people do, simply because you and everybody else pay part of their electric bills. Here’s how that happens. First, part of your taxes goes to pay for the government power plants that serve these people with electricity. Second, the electric bills these people pay do not include many of the taxes you pay in your electric bills. So your share of taxes has to be increased in order to pay their share. For example, the federal government’s TV A pays 5% of power revenue from customers, excluding sales to agencies of the United States. This is in place of taxes to the states and counties in which it operates.* Your local electric company pays 23.7%—about five times as much. ' Not exactly fair, is it? Yet some people are trying to push the federal government into building and running more unnecessary power plants and power dams—to extend this “special privilege” still farther. This kind of favoritism is unfair to everybody—especially to you who have to pay for it That’s why we’re bringing you these little known facts. *Seetu>n 13, TV A Act Northern Virginia Power Company “YOU ARE THERE”—CBS TV—witness history's great events

But it is unique in that pharmacy is both a business and a profession. A business built on service to the sick cannot be restricted to usual "business hours.” The need for medicine and sickroom supplies is usually immediate and urgent.

P.-T. A. — from page 1 close of the first year, the entire vocabulary is approximately fiftyeight words. This knowledgehas been gained from supplemental speech cards and five books. in me second grade, Mrs. Leonard carries on the growth of the vocabulary. Also, the transition from printing to writing takes place during this year. And spelling comes into the picture. In this year, the child is given more attention in letter recognition, for his spelling. And here we must cement the transfer of the form or shape of the printed word to the written word. The class library with its additional vocabulary, words which must be made up from the small limited shape words, enters during the second grade. In the third grade, Mrs. Cox explained, she enlarges the printed vocabulary to over 1000 words. And at this point of their instruction the pupil meets phonetics for perhaps the first time. The ability to make sounds' of the individual letters is very important. From the shape of words, to the composition of words, the child has come a long way. The advantages of the phonics on the shape words were in the ability to read more words sooner. This encourages the child by giving him a stronger foothold earlier. The third grade books are bigger and heavier and longer, but they are still profusely and colorfully illustrated. Many parents have admired the beauti ful books their children are reading. Now there is more stress on the English composition and the spelling is more coordinated with their reading. Pronunciation, expression, and dramatics are stressed in this year also. The child is given a library cards, and taught how to use a library. He is taught oral reading as well as silent reading. ^ —Contributed SCHOOL NEWS Children’s Own Code We, the children of the Rappahannock County schools, in order to become better citizens and to show our appreciation for our many privilages set up for ourselves the following responcibilties; 1- Do my best at all times. 2- Listen courteously and learn all 1 can. 3- Be courteous at all times. 4- Keep my mind and body healthy and clean. 5- Be prompt and use my time wisely. 6- Be trustworthy in little things as well as in little things. 7- Be cheerful and help others to be happy. 8- Play fair and honestly and with good sportsmanship. • 9- Share willingly and generously with those in need. 10- Treat others as I would like to be treated. 11- Help others by fullfilling my resnoncibilities faithfully. 12- Respect my parents, teachers patrols, and, many other people who help me. * o' v/ia-j UK i uirs ui my nun 1C, my school, my city and the United States of America, ■ 14- Take good care of the property of others as well as my own. 15- Keep my home, school, and community beautiful. 16- Settle differences peacefully by talking them over. 17- Remember to be forgiving and that I may not always be right. 18- Follow my religious beliefs faithfully and respect the beliefs of others. 19- Live up to the promises that I make when I pledge allegiance to my flag. 20- Do all the good things I know a citizen should do every dav so that I may become a finer and better perspn, 21- These are the q u a 1 i t i e s I should have to become a good citizen of the United States of America.
