The flood of lights at the front of the stage prevented her from seeing thje audience. Nevertheless, the kjnOwledge that thousands of people are looking at and listening to you is not exactly a quietening expedience.

Adding Lavatory To Second Gryde P.-TA Project Most of the parents of grade school children who have visited at the High School this year have been aware of the very serious problem of overcrowding in the general lavatory. With both High School students and pupils from the second and third grade using this ope facility, a bad situation has been created; A few yeitrs ag6 the first grade pupils also shared the of the lavatory but then toilet facilities were installed in their room which immcdiatly improved both the traffic and the discipline problems. «., Recognizing that additional steps are still needed, the PTA has taken as its yearly project the installation of a bathroom in the second grade room. It was felt by both parents and teachers that this would greatly help the general situation by reducing the load on the present lavatory by 35 pupils and by giving the second grade teacher closer supervision over" her children. Estimate have been obtained-for the cost of the work and the PTA is now making an attempt to raise the necessary money. Contributions may be sent to the Rev. John R. Frizzell, Jr. Washington, president of the Rappahannock Co. High School P/TA. • The regular meeting of the R.C.H.S.P.TA. will be held at .the High School on Tuesday Feb.21, at 7:30 p. m.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS * <' PUBLISHED THURSDAT HORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia DIAL: WASHINGTON 2851 BRUCE S.. BOWIE........... Pmblithe, Entered m second-class mail at the post office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (inadvance) $2.00 a year YOUR ^CONGRESSMAN REPORTS By Rep. Burr P. Harrison• It is an unfortunate fact that the second highest elective office in ths* United States usually is filled as an afterthought The choice of a Vice President- tial -candidate is little more than an incidental aspect of the national political conventions. When the voter goes to the polls In November, he is called on to exercise his judgement as between the aspirants to the Presidency. After making his selection, he votes automatically for the Vice Presidential candidate of the same party. No choice is involved. In the House of Representatives this week, I offered a Constitutional Amendment to provide separate voting for President and Vice President. Under the Constitution, we do not vote directly for President and Via? President, although we see the names of the candidates on the ballot. We vote, technically, for slates of electors who are pledged to vote later, as members of the Electoral College, for the candidates of their .respective parties. My suggested amendment would not disturb the Electoral College system, except to provide for separate sets of electors for - President and Vice President. (The same persons could serve as candidates for -Presidential and Vice Presirentiah electors, but they would be elected separately and required tar cast distinct votes for the two offices.) What would be the point of such a change ? Why would anyone want to vote for a Democratic President an<j| a Republican Vice President, or Vice versa? vvny snouia tne executive Branch of the Government be placed under threat of complete upheaval in the middle of a Presidential term if the President died or became incapacitated and a man of the opposition party suddenly took charge? These are pertinent questions; In answer, I should state that 1 should consider it unlikely the electorate would elect'candidates of different parties, except in unusual crcumstances. The point of the amendment would be to place both major political parties on notice that they could not take a chance of nominating an obvious "hack for the important office of Vice president in the expectation'of his getting a free ride on the coattails of the Presidential candidate. So long as the parties nominated highly-qualified candidates, the voters would vote as (hey do today for the Presidential and Vice' Presidential nominees of the same ’ party. We might recall that the Founding Fathers did not have in mind highly-organized national political parties when the Constitution was written. In that era, dominated by strong personalities backed principally by personal rather than party loyalties, the two-man national party ticket which became standard in more re. cent generations was not foreseen. It was not reasonable to assume that the man enjoying the most „ widespread confidence and popularity would be elected President, and the man standing second in national esteem would be chosen Vice President.' In the development of the national party convention, it became usual practice to select Vice Presidential candidates with ait eye to political geography. The second most popular man in the party has no paramount claim on the nomination, and a relative unknown often turns up on the ballot as a prospect for the position that stands only a heartbeat away from the Presidency., After the voters have made their choice in November, we know which Presidential nominee is more popular. We do not know what the voters think, though, about the comparative merits of the Vice Presidential nominees. Under my amendment, the voter could do something about it if he favored the Presidential nominee of one party but found . his Vice Presidential running mate decidedly inferior to that offered, by the opposition party. I believe the value of the amendment would lie in the mere existence of the possible choice, rather than in its possible exercise, as the political candidates would have to run Vice Presidential nominees on their individual merits* and not as shadows of the Presidential candidates. The more careful selection of nominees would give the Nation better insurance against* unqualified leadership in an emergency. Let me emphasize’that I am not optimistic about favorable action on the proposal. It is doubtful that the leaders of either major party would welcome this threat to the pattern of convention deals and geographic considerations which so often has been used in the naming of the Vice President. But the present system of electing the Vice President is bad, and I think there should be agitation until we get a change for the better. Beard States Views On State Convention Eugene N. Beard, Luray, candidate for Delegate to the Virginia Constitutional Convention, March 5, from the 23rd Senatorial District, has issued a statement that should he be chosen as a delegate in the election to be held on Tuesday, February 21, he will cosponsor a Resolution before the Convention which if adopted would condemn the actions of the General Assembly in their Special Session when they successfully made a “rubber stamp” of the Constitutional Convention and that he would at the proper time move that the Convention be recessed for two weeks—when the General Assembly will have completed its work in, Richmond. Beard stated that any attempt by members of the General Assembly to influence the Convention should be treated ,as contempt and that the phrasing of the amendment should be given full and serious consideration exclusively by the delegates .elected. Beard is an Independent, and the first of three candidates filing from the 23rd Senatorial District, which comprises Page, Warren, Rappahannock, Rockingham, and the City of Harrisonburg. No matter how many sharp pencils wc keep at hand we invarably grab the one with the broken point. WOODVILLE BAPTIST CHURCH At a meeting held July 29, .1852, it was resolved, “expedient, for the glory of God, and for the promotion of His cause, to establish a Baptist Church at Woodville.” A covenant was drawn up pledging those who signed: “To give freely of ourselves to the Lord, and to one another according to His word, to be one body under one Head, even Christ;—to exist apd act by the rules of the gospel and do promise and engage to do all things by divine assistance, in our different capacities and relations as the Lord has commanded us, and evidently required of us; particularly to deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow Christ; keep the faith, assemble ourselves together, love the Brethren, submit to one another in the Lord; care for one another, bear one another’* burdens, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bonds of peace; and finally, to honor and assist them that have the rule over us in the Lord.” I signed: Joseph Botts, John N. Fox, Thomas W. Dean, C. H. Thornton, E. A. Turner, Mary Rosson, Jane Botts, C. M. Botts, Elizabeth Brown, “Bettie” G. Fox. The church was formally established August 2, 1852. Elder Cumberland George preached the sermon of the occasion. “In which he. ably and eloquently defended the faith, consoled the followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, and earnestly and affectionately warned the sinner of the wrath to come.” Joseph Botts and T. W. Dean were elected deacons, J. M. Fox as clerk. The church resolved to seek admittance ifito the Shiloh Association. Some interesting facts are gathered from the early minutes. One of the first new members admitted was “Aunt Jinny”, a free colored woman who brought her letter of dismissal and recommendation from F.T. Church. The first new members to be baptized were G. T. Rosson and Mrs. Berry, which ordinance was administered November 24, 1852. Elder Barnett Grimsley was dhosen as the first pastor until a permanent one could be secured. He served from 1852-1866. We read that worship was not limited to Sundays; nor were they dependent on a minister for services. We find in the minutes of July 13, 1853, “The pastor1 being absent on account of sickness the church spent an hour in prayer.” Regular church services were frequently held'on Wednesday. Saturday morning was reserved for business meetings. The Lord’s Supper was first observed March 30, 1853. As early as 1855 the General Association requested the Church to subscribe to the missionary fund. Membership in the church meant more than a profession of faith. The conduct of its members .was closely watched and if one's behavior was unbecoming to a Christian he was “waited on” by a committee appointed by the church. One member was excluded in 1856, four years after he had signed the covenant and been elected deacon. In October 1857, Sister C. H. Thornton asked for a letter of dismission, giving her reason for same that she was satisfied she should commune with all Christian denominations. During its one hundred lour years the cnurcn nas naa 21 pastors (regular and supply): Elder Barnett Grimsley, 1852-1866; Rev. John N. Fox, 1866-1878,; J. H. Boldridge, 1878-1880; J. H.

Bowman, III, 1953-^It was during the pastorate of Elder Grimsley from 1852-1866 that the first church building was completed. It was of brick and had a gallery for the colored members. The pastorate of Rev. C. W. Collier marked a period of real growth and development. Many members were added to the church under the ministry of this able and Godly man. Rev. W. J. Reynolds is remembered as one of the finest Christian characters and one of the best beloved men who (Continued on*page 3) STOP! •i | ■•') AT THIS SIGN . ■ : i r ■ ■ ■: PREMIUM J.

WOODVILLE BAPTIST CHURCH, Contin—d from page 2 ever serve d this church. Under his guidance the church became definitely a missionary Baptist church. | Rev. G. F. Cook led the church in its remodeling of its old building into a very attractive house of worship. Same was completed, after Rev. P. H. Chelf came to the field, at a cost of 24,200. This had/been entirely paid ifor by 1928. On May 2i 1929 Woodville was visited by a tornado which completely destroyed the church. Dauntdd, but not dismayed, thfta little bend of Christian men and ; women led by their beloved pastor, P. H. Chelf, decided to rebuild at once. Mt. Lebanon and Sperryville churches offered the use of their buildings while the church was being built. However, it was decided to accept the gracious offer pf the Free Methodist Church, and this building was used for both Sunday school S and Church until October 5,1930, when the new church wak dedicated by Rev. J. W. Cammack [of Averett College, Danville, Virginia. i This dras a great day, as the entire cost of the new church, ex< eeding $5,000.00, had been paid except $675.00, which was previously pledged. This debt was cleared, in spite of the depression, by 1933. The W.M.S. assumed as its part, the raising bf $500.00 and a new organ. And be it saia, that during the building of the two churches the society not only contributed liberally, but hot one year did it fall below its quota to the Cooperative Program. The church has now grown to a membership of One hundred (100), with twenty-five (25) active members of the W.M.S. In 1935 the Church contributed $451.56 to [the Co-operative Program and $475.00 to the pastor’s salary. In July, 1880, we read in the minutes that $4.25 was bused for missions and $4.25 for the Minister’s Relief Fund, and the pastor's salary was increased to $75.00 per year.” This would not O'Bannon, 1936, and $500.00 w she loved of her un church and short history of the Woodville Baptist Church be cbmplete without mention of Mrs. Rena A. who passed to her Heavenly reward April 17, who in her last will and testament bequeathed ijth which to purchase new pews for the church > well.

SOCIAL SECURITY I With April 15 not. too far off, many farmers are turning their attention toward the matter of beating the dead-line for filing income and social security reports for 1955, according to Robert E. Parsons, assistant manager of the Alexandria social security office. Parsons explained that like other self-employed people, the self employed farm operator will make a report# of his net earnings for social security purposes, if those net earnings amounted to $400 or more in the year 1955. Parsons cautioned all self-employed farm operators to not overlook the fact when making out their social security report that income received as rentals from a farm, including rental paid in crop shares, is not counted as part of net earnings from self-employment for social security purposes. Parsons pointed out that employees of the Social Security Ad ministration are not authorized to assist taxpayers in the dreparation of tax returns. He said that such assistance should be secured from the Internal Revenue Service.

Both talents ere acquired in much the same way * . . by scrupulously following instructions—whether on a recipe page or on a pattern instruction sheet—and by practice.

Tkt waist. Measure at the natural waistline, candying the tape around the Smallest part and drawing taut 3. Tkt kip. Measure about 7“ below the waist* line, carrying the tape straight around, fairly taut Do your measuring over a bra—and be sure to stand up straight FLOUNCED PETTICOAT Whether you're a beginner or an old-hand at the art of sewing, you’ll enjoy making this frilly petticoat It would make an ideal Christmas gift This ruffly petticoat will underscore your full skirts.
