RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED tHURSDAY MOANING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 JOHN M. BARBER JR. and ROBERT E. MANY EditonT and Publishers Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) ....i. $2.00 PER YEAR ♦ WHY WE NEED CIVIL DEFENSE Civil Defense Seen As Strong As "Yon and Your Neighbors Mike It" It has been a hundred years and more since our pioner ancesters fought for and settled rural America. We know how hard they worked together, the life-anddeath chances they took—o n e hand on the plow and the other on a musket—to establish homes and families on the lands that are now our farms. Things have changed much since then. Not the basic things for whch they fought. Not liberty or the desire for peace and happiness. But our way of living. No longer is the farm far from the city. The city is as near as our telephones, power lines, paved highways. The city is the source of our farm machinery, gasoline, electri<^'ty and thousands of important things that mean comfort and well-being for our families. The city is the market for our farm production. Today, cities and farms are tied together and depend on each other. That’s why there is an urgent need today for the setting up of strong evil defense organizations n the smaller cites and rural areas of the nation, to cooperate wth the teivil defense organizations in the large cities, which presumably would be likely targets if America should aver be attacked. Everyone hopes that we never will be attacked, and that there will be no A-bomb or M-bomb war. However, there is little question about the possibility of such an attack. Our enemies have the weapons and ways to deliver them. We must, as a naton, be prepared for attack—and by prepared to withstand attack, we reduce the probability that an attack will be made. What is our civil defense situation ?If the big cities are destroyed, will we be ready to “go it alone?” We can be. But it means planning and preparing how. And this plannng and preparing can best be done through the medium of a strong local civil defense organization. However, our civil defense can only be as strong as you and your neighbors make it. Civil defense, in its initial phase, s primarily a matter of self- defense. Individuals and families must be prepared to survive any emergency, whether it be a natural disaster or the result of nuclear warfare. The civil defense organization is ready to help you learn the rules of personal survival, through its information booklets and special training classes. Once you have prepared for personal survival, you will want to know that the community and the nation are adequately organized for survival. And when you and enough others like you begin to take an active interest in seeing that our community has the right kind of civil defense organization, we will be well started toward the building of a civil defense that will be able to meet the test, if an emergency' occurs.

And civil defense is ready to help, right now. LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Sperryville, Va. Sept. 1, 1956 Mr. Jack Barber Rappahannock News Washington, Va.

Although it has not been used a$ school building for many years, it is still remembered with affection [by those who attended school .land taught there many years ago. Some ti|me ago a very nice looking couple was seen taking pictures of the o.ld building..and was observed by one of those “inquisitive Indies", that we have been told, are the inheritance of every small town. In j this instance, however, it happened that the lady taking the picture liked to ask questions too, and enjoyed answering them. She and her husband were from Indiana, were on a “vacation trip", and had been auu u*u ikx» asked by an old neighbor fo be sure and see “The Old Akidemy” if they passed through j “Little Washington”. They had made quite a detour to see the old school house they had heard so -much about, and where their friend had gotten his education. and a few “lickings”, but they quoted the old gentleman as saying, that he amiss.” "never got a lick I! Her friend's name, I learned, was Hartley. I remembered the name very well, and was able to tell her something of the Hartleys of Rappahannock. She told me that several 6f the family had gone Another person who made the trip from his home in Orange County, j"just to see the old school house”, where he, as a young man, ENTERTAINS AT DINNER _ ■ . !

On Tha Orange Rond 1 CULPEPER I. 1 c aacoqoooc had started out teaching school, was the late Judge George L. Browning of the Virginia Supreme Court. Judge Browning was born and grew up at “Greenfield” and told many interesting and delightful stories about the County and his experiences as a teacher at the old Academy. He had a wonderful time reminiscing with an old pupil of his, whom he chanced to meet on the street. He was reminded of the fact that lve hadn’t “spared the rod” and replied, (in a fatherly manner and with a -fatherly pat, for which he was famous) “But you see I didn’t spoil the child." Mr. and Mrs. Dow, “who came from the North” were the teachers at the Academy when thfc War started. Miss Annie Powers whose father “knew Thomas Jefferson well” and loved to talk about it, was one of their pupils. She was very fond of them and said they Were much loved by the people pf the community for their loyalty to their neighbors when the “Yankees" were in town. After the War the Academy was not «nly used as a school buildirfg, but became quite a “community center”. A flourishing Literary Society and Debating Society held their weekly meetings there. Some of the minutes of the meetings were found by the late Mrs. Rosa Bishop in the old “Nicol House” when she bought the property some years ago. The meetings were well attended and there was much enthusiasm. The late Miss Sallie Strother, aunt of Miss Belle Strother, who visits here frequently, told of attending one of the meetings when they discussed Shakespeare’s Plays! Il ' 1.. Cne particular dabate serais to be remembered especially. The sub ect—“To be or not to be, (married) that is the question.” Th< late John F, Lillard known far better everywhere as “Boley” is sa(d to have covered himself with glory. One of those who heard him was asked which side “Boley” was on. His reply was, “It doesn’t matter which side he was on, he'was bound to win.”His flights of ora-' tory were magnificent. Over half a century ago the “Old Academy” could well have been called the “Teen-Age-Club” for it was there that the “young fry”, held their square dances^— But that is ahother story.
