Sifpport Christmas Seal Sale One of the most common of all, human failures is forgetting. Sec-4 ond to this is “putting off”. This;, is something we all do, but often times when we do this, things which have to be done are just .not done. Such is the case with Christmas seals. The money which you contribute to the Tuberculosis Association through your purchase and use of Christmas scab enables the TB Association to assist the Pub* . Kc Health Department in operating the Mobile Chest X-ray units and care for TB patients in the sanitorium. The Association also assists the Rehibilitation Agency to 'rehibilitate TB patients. Your money also provides the funds for TB research to find better ways conquer TB. It provides for Health Education, as in public schools to keep the children alert to good health, medical nursing education*^ well as public information and education. All of this plus the many works which are'’constantly being done by your TB Association, .. , However without the financial support of the sale of Christmas seals these services would not be possible. So you see the importance of the-purchase of the seals. If 50U have already answered your Christmas seal letter, thank you very much. If you have no* answered it yet please do so as soon as possible as generously, as you are. able. Don’t put it off and please don’t forget it.

Si»k jLc-k! third iu the National 4-Jl Sheep Shearing Contest held December 5th in the Amphitheater of the Union Stock,. Yards at Chicago. In all there were 21 boys in the contest representing 18 states. The preliminaries were held ony Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Those making the highest scores were as follows (thus establishing; their eligibility to shear in the finals.) 'f " - 1 Donald Sikkink, Minn. 93.00 2 Albert Woody. Kansas 92.60 3 Jack W.' Sisk, Virginia 92.35 4 Lloyd Woolan, Illinois 91.10 5 Ernest Shaw, W.Virginia 90.80 6 Allien Hafper Indian^ 90.70 7 Jim Van Cleve, Illinois 90.40 8 - ' Coffler, N. Dakota 90.07 ' The above is the average score mode in shearing two sheep. The finals were held, Friday morning. After drawing for position and pen-of-tfjree sheep,; the boys lined up on a platform in from of hundreds of people seated on bleachers, in the sheep section of the amphitheater. There were; two timers (time count* 20 points) with stop watches per con-, testant Two judges of fleeces, (condition of fleece—20 points, absence of second cuts In fleece 20 points), two judges of manner of handling sheep (20 points) and .one judge/qf appearance of shomr sheep (10 points) and absence of a As cc sheep (15 points). At rite usual;.get ready, get set, Go, all eight boys and the 16 timers got to work. It was a thrilling, nerve testing affair. Far different from shearing in a barn. ,? While the contest was thoroughly organized and completely fair to all contestants, the officials were as strict as could be. For instance, they didn’t trust oU^tOp watchthere geere two, not one man to judge fleeces-two experts in wool marketing So strict were these judges'they took each fleece up and shook it as your wife would a rug to check for second cuts in the , fleece and to see whether it held together or wheather the sheaic. had U>m the fleece in the process ;of shearing. A certified public accountant, one of die best in Chica-, ,go. computed the scores. _ «While the accountant was doing this for die 4-H finals, the preliminaries for* the open contest of professional ihearers was held. Here one contestant sheared a sheep in less than two minutes. Here too, the contest was condurted exactly thesame as the junior* contest wkh the 8 high scores eligi> ble" to compete for the finals. r Tension buih to its peak as the manager of the contests stepped to* the platform to announce the junior winners: he ultimate of 8-11 years of work, training, coachings and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunI ity to compete for handsome onwards made by tffc Sunbeam CorpThe results: '• 1 Allen Harper 93.80 $3011 scholarship. v-WL\hM1; .-fc c 2 Donald Sikkink 93.58 $150:, scholarship. • 3 Jack Sisk 92.77 $50 Gov't.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County^rTrginia j TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 1861 r ’ 4 IL cTbORKE, JR. Owner ' , . SARAHC. LATHAM, Managing Editor t' Entered as Second Class the Poet Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) —-**•*« PEB YBAB ..«. f *< —^ An Argument Against Leaving The Democratic Party There has been noised abroad of late considerable sentiment in favor of the South breaking from Democratic ranks and leading thenation in a switch to a conservative third party. This, we think, would be the heighth of folly, and with the reader’s permission, we will touch li,ghtly. upon a few reasons for retaining our position in the Democratic fold. , First of all. Southern politicians are justly proud of their unusual oratorial powers. And while there are deep and disturbing differences between Democrats from the North and the South, it is just these differences that offer the Southern orators their greatest opportunity to display them prowess. A recent example of this may be observed in tips speech on a civil rights-intergration resolution at the Democratic National Committee meetingthis past Saturday. • Thundered the Hon. A. B. Chaqtfef, happy fence-sitting governor of Kentucky, "“do not press down this crown of thorns upon their (the South's) brow.” The really comforting aspect Qf this situation is that the northern Democrats are becoming more and more truculent, thus insuring an almost inexhaustible vent for Southern steam, without any obligation upon the orator to do a thing about it except spell-bind ms audiences. •' - Secondly, and far more important; the Unwavering^ aiieHence of the South to the Democratic banner gives a people too often termed “proud” the opportunity to show the world that in reality they are humble. The reader will recall with a thrill how, in supreme humility, Governor Battle argued Virginia’s plea that kept us in the Democratic Convention of 1956. That same level of humility was again demonstrated by the Hon. Thomas H. Pope of South Carolina in last Saturday’s Democratic National Committee nna in last oaiurunjr o uc«.uv..uv —----- -—meeting. Begged Mr. Pope, ‘[I ask you not to thrust that '(resolution) down our throat; Do not make us walk the las,, v .. . i « a _ ...»„ H nwn Alir ( mile.” And when the resolution was “thrust down our throat;” by a vote of 84 to 19, in another demonstration of humility, the Southern'Democrats stayed on for the next topic. Should any further proof be needed, we would ask, who could call a people- proud that steadfastly refuse to quit a party after its chkirman, Mr. Paul M.. Butler, has time and time again asked them to leave? Surely, this i^ humility at its humble best. . A ' _ ,, We have heard of the advantages that the South has gained through seniority and committee control m Washington, D. C., as a result of sending the same Democratic legislators back year after year. There are some that argue the only advantage accrues to the legislators themselves, as both the House and Senate have now devised means for by-passing committees, thus nulifymg seniority control. bv-nassing contuuttwo, -—; - , , However, people of that persuasion must be just daraned Republicans,” to quote an ex-necktie salesman from ^ Finally, we would firmly oppose the South’s quitting the Democratic party because such action would keep su many Democrats and their leaders from switching back and fotm toTnd f r“m Republican ranks whb;h' only «>e present surf jnritv of Darties will permit. Put m a really different third to anti jrom KepuBiicaxi ian^, Parity of parties will permit. Put m a really different third party that stood for something, and the switching Democrat or Republican might not switch back. B, C. B.

Lawton Blankenbaker’s .farm. Fourteen hunters on horsf and as many or more followers “-off horse” gathered with cheerful spirits, but slight hope of any sport. Surprisingly, the day proved to be..* interesting and strenuous due to chivalrous, far-running grey. Hounds were cast on the hill to the east of Blankenbaker’s farm, < where the woods sheltered the ter- . raine from wind. Within five min-, utes, hounds sounded off and' began carefully working over around s and on top of a layed fence, then followed the track to some old, fallen timber to which they gave painstaking attention. Two hounds went off from the pack on a1 trail across Kelsoe’s farm. They sound- •• ed right, and the huntsman threw the pack in after them. From then on, for a good two hours, hounds ran north across snaggy country through thick, very thick understory growth and scrub pine to the top of Aylor Mountain. There the « fox ran along the ridge for approx* 1 imately twenty minutes before losing the hounds. This Madison Grey was a puzzler—he ran so far and so straight.

Strength For life If we hekrd St mail say, “1 can do aU things," we would probobljr § think he was bragging. But if we ' heard a man like the Apostle Paul Say, "1 can do all things through Christ who gives me strength,” We would be forced to the conclusion that he knows what he is talking about.- Could a man endure stoning* at the hands of mobs, or be whipped on five separate occasions with 39 strokes of a lash, or suffer shipwreck and be adrift at sea, or be imprisioned, or face dangers from bandits, floods, Jews and Greeks, or know hunger and thirst, gj^jjiustioW, pain unless there was a new power in his life? Paul sawrin his letter to the Galatian Chnsfians, “I am crucified with Christ. It is no longer I that live but Christ lives within me. ^ And die life I now live I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.” For, Paul and the early Christians it meant that their lives had been invaded by a new quality of life— the life of God himseif. The risen, i living Christ in the person of the Holy Spirit had come to live witfa. in them. ■ v Christians in the early church or of a few spiritual giants like' the Apostle Paul, It is meant fori all Christian of all ages and for all time. It is part and parcel of the Christian life. 1 But, honesty causes us to admit that this experience has somehow escaped many of us. 6hir Christian sometimes. It becomes onlytari empty performance. We keep going on the strength of a fading conversion experience. Many of us have a "form of godliness, denying the power of it.” f What is wrong? Might it hot be that we have simply refuse! o believe this tremendous affinSoation of the Christian faith that God is willing to live within »ur lives, to remake us into men and women who are Christiaplike? We hi ay be trying to serve and please <a God. who is outside us instead of letting the God who is pleased to dwell within us, impart his strength to pur lives. tor might k be that believing jit, w«f have not acted on it.
