‘ VOLUME 11—NUMBER 4S WASHINGTON, VIRGINIA, THURSDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 24, 1259 SUBSCRIPTION: 12.50 PER YEAR Two Minor Auto Accidents In County Two pickup trucks collided Sat* urday afternoon on U.S. Route 211 just outside of the town of Washington, resulting in $300 property damage, but no injury. Clayborn Hudson of Washington. driving a 1953 Chev rolet pickup, made a left-hand turn into Mac’s Grocery and cut in front of a 1958 pickup owned by Jack’s Amusement Company of Front Royal and driven by Donald A. Burke. Hudson was charged with failing to yield right-of-way and was fined $5 and cost Monday morning in County Court. Trooper W. A. Buntin was in vestigating officer. A second accident ocurred Tuesday afternoon September 22 onehalf mile west of Amissville on Route 211 when a pickup belonging to Joseph S. Hitt and operated by James Brown of Huntly pulled partially on the highway from a hay field and a 1951 Oldsmobile owned and operated by Roy Stringfellow skidded into the pick up as a car approached from the opposite direction. Trooper W. A. Buntin charged Stringfellow with reckless driving and Brown with failing to yield right-of-way. Are h KHadSkCU&t Several* residents of the cour_ have inquired about die poasibiljf or organising a hiking club whlB would meet for afternoon hikes in the county or park area. Now that harvest season is almost over and cooler weather coming it ia an ideal season for hiking. Anyone interested in joining a hiking club contact Raymond Johnson Woodvillc; Mrs. Paul Miller, Flint Hill or Mrs. Sarah Latham, at Amissville. Hikes would begin as short ones and gradually increase in lenght as time and muscles permitted. There is nothing as stimulating as the rarified mountain air of Rappahannock. I Rummage Sale Report The rummage sale sponsored by the Ladies Auxiliary to the Washington Fire Company cleared $77 over the weekend, bringing the total thus far to $252.69. The sale will end this Saturday, September 26. Be sure to visit the ladies this weekend. Mrsi Elizabeth H. DeBergh and Mrs. John, R. DeBergh were in charge of the sale for the past weekend.

This month is the time for all those club members who are interested in raising and showing baby beef this spring to purchase your calf and get him on feed. This year club members in Rappahannock have been invited to show and sell their baby beeves at the Warren-Page Baby Beef Show held in Front Royal on May 5th. Calves must be put on feed this month in order tha|t they will weigh between 900-1000 pounds by show time. Walter B. Kilby has two shorthorn calves on feed now and 1 am hoping many or you will be interested in this protect for the coming year. If you have any questions about this pirn ject, I know Walter B. would be glad to tell you about his baby beef projects and I will be glad to help you look for a suitable calf if you don’t already have one.; This is another chance for Rappahannock 4-H’ers to capture an outof-county 4-H event as we have done in the past with our sheep and hog entries.

Wilson went to the Timbers home to get his wife and after makingthreats was put out of the house. He returned to his home, ggot his shot gun and returnedto the Timber home. Standing on the .outside, Wilson saw a person silhouetted against the venitian blind and fired the gun through the window.'

Rep: Harrison Voicesu Opinions On Federal interference With Transient Labor During Visit Here Rep. Burr P. Harrison, 7th District Congressman, visited Rappahannock Tuesday, September 22, renewing acquaintances and discussing with farmers, orchardists, and businessmen, their problems and affaire that come within his jurisdiction. Rep. Harr.son was given a warm welcome by h’.s constituents. < A topic of much discussion was the proposal of federal regulation of seasonal agricultural labor, which is a matter of great concern in Rappahannock, for apples, one of the main crops, are harvested in a large part by transient labor. Rep. Harrison last week again voiced his protest against federal interference and stated that “'This proposal, it is clear, represents an unwarranted effort by the Secretary of Labor to exercise a substantial measure of oppressive control over seasonal agricultural employment in the United States on a contrived and tenuous statutory basis and without a shadow of specific legislative authortiy.” Mr. Harrison’s statement, di- -=■ rected to Deputy Solicitor Harold C. Nystrom of the Labor Department, predicted: Si. . . 'If the Federal Government, and -T«vtieulajfty,' the Department of - —Labor? prevails iir this- effort to - ‘improve’ the harvesting of fruit crqps-m Virginia, not only the itv- dividual fruit1 farmer, but also the . entire economy of a hard-pressed agricultural region will suffer immediate and substantial injury, and intolerable uncertainty as tq' the sufficiency of the supply of qualified agricultural labor for future * harvests." The text of Mr. Harrison’s protest follows: Dear Mr. Nystrom: With respect to the proposed revision of 20 CFR 602.9 and 604.1, the subject of a public hearing scheduled for September 10, 1959, pursuant to an announcement of August 10, 1959, I desire to enter, for the record, a most earnest objection to the proposal on behalf of the affected farmers of Virginia. This proposal, it is clear, repre sents an unwarranted effort by the Secretary of Labor to exercise a substantial measure of oppressive control over seasonal agricultural employment in the United States on a contrived and tenuous statutory basis without a shadow of specific legislative authority. There is in fact, no shred of evidence of any Congressional intent—past or present_that the Labor Depart- • merit concern itself with the employment conditions of seasonal agricultural workers generally. To the contrary, the Congress through its committees, has refused, on several occasions, to sanction such Labor now plans to place in effect. The legislative history, and, indeed, the language of the statutes on which apparently the Secretary relies, make plain that the United States Employment Service was established as a service agency to bring workers and jobs together, under such conditions as might obtain in the labor markets. The fact that any policing of employment conditions which might prove in the public interest would require additional and specific authority before such policing could be unSee Transient Labor Continued on Page five

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Wuhiagtm, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON *851 *■ BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner ■- MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION .(in advance)..— »2.50 PER YEAR *A Constant threat i ‘ . \ ' While- Khrushchev is making headlines, we are being threatened by a less spectacular enemy : further inflation as a result of the steel strike. It seems perfectly natural to us that a wage earner should want more pay. However, save for the limited factor of increased efficiency, there is. only one way he can justify a wage increase and that is by an increase in production. If he won’t produce more, the extra money can only come by a rise 19 the price of hds product. Then the old cycle resumes. The repetition of this cycle has not found management blameless. Too often in the booming forties and fifties big business put up only token resistance to unrealistic demands of labor. Then labor would cry and government would lament the ill effects on the country, and management would gratiously give in, hastily tacking increased costs on the price list. Anything to get back into production when prices were nothing to a buy happy public. Federal Reserve , can raise the discount rate. Prime interest rates can rise. Money can get tighter and tighter. But inflation will continue to spread until increased productivity bears a realistic ratio to increase in wages. , Meanwhile, we have very nearly priced ourselves out of a market in world-wide competition, n _ T i5«v>D>jr« YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS Bf Ret. Burr P. Harrito» W ashington—The 86th Coofr tcss is in adjournment, but it » not finished. Because * lasts two years, and only the nut session of throne has been completed, bills pending at last week & adjournment do not die. They re“ main on the calendars of House or Senate, or of theif committees, and may receive action in the 2nd session, convening January 5. In the public discussion of what Congress did this year, there are complaints, as usual, about what it did not do. These fall, in general, into two classes; 1. Legislation the President requested, but with respect to which the Congress exercised its discretion and decided not to approve. 2 Legislation advanced in so-, called “liberal” circles for farreaching and costly new federal programs, or drastic expansion of existing ones. In addition, there are measures which some of us in the Congress are convinced are essential to the preservation of the historic apportionment of powers among the fed eral and state governments ana the people. These bills, unfortunately, have to contend not only with the opposition of the Eisenhower Administration, but also that of psuedo-liberals, who seem to have forgotten the basic American concept of political liberalism, v Among Mr. Eisenhower's proposals which did not meet with Congressional favor was an increase in the first-class postage rate from 4 cents to 5 cents. The federal gasoline tax was raised one cent to keep the superhighway program going, but the President had asked a boost of 1 n cents, as well as an increase in the tax on.aircraft fuel, to be passed on to airline passengers. I opposed the tax increase, in the conviction that we should re-evamine the entire federal highway program, in the light of disturbing evidence of gross waste, mismanagement and overemphasis on gram diose superhighway patterns, ana then concentrate on building within the limits of revenues from the present heavy taxes, those roads—., “super”, primary or secondary.— found most urgently needed in each State. The President did not get freedom for the Treasury to increase interest rates on long-term government bonds to whatever rate proved necessary to sell the bonds. A permissive increase to 4% per cent on “E” and “H” bonds was voted, but it is likely the Congress will have to face up to serious federal financing problems again next year. There are a tew of the proposals which fell short of enactment in the first session of Congress: Various plans for extensive federal aid to education, including * “grants” for construction of school buildings and teacher salaries. ' Transfers from the States to the Federal Government of control over levels of unemployment benefits. • Increase in the federal minimum wage. Federal financial aid to so-called “depressed areas” of the nation. New federal controls in the field of “civil rights.” Substantial increases in federal , money alloted to meet local problems, such as water pollution control Just as there are sharp differences of opinion as to whether enactment of a particular bill by the past session was an achievemdht, CHARCOAL STEAKS CHICKEN IN-THE-ROUGH Entrance to SKYLINE DRIVE ' Belle Boyd RESTAURANT Wont Royal, V*. whether non-passage of a bill should be marked down as a failure.

Snowy Chocolate Oaties—Different! These distinctive chocolate “Oaties” have a snowy appearance due to the roll in confectioners’ sugar of each small cookie ball before baking. The cookies bake fiat and have a wonderful crispness and a chewy crunch. The homey appeal of these cookies is similar to Grandma Moses’ folksy winter scene, featured on the new Spry canister. It is well to keep the canister cookie-filled to satisfy those winter-sharpened appetites.

The Drivers Seat * Each year, according to the National Safety Council, 360 bicycle riding youngster* under 15 are _ killed by motor vehicles, and about 25,000 injured. Almost every motorist has had die hdart-st opping experience of narrowly missing a collision with a young bicycle rider who darts * suddenly from a driveway or cross street, or from between parked cars,. Police and traffic safety authorities are doing all they can to reduce such accidents, but they point out that, as long as kids are kids, prime responsibility for protecting the youngsters will rpst with adult motoifests. They suggest that motorists must be constantly alert for bicycle riders, especially in residential areas and near parts and playgrounds. The danger is greatest in the larger towns and cit.es, but even Small rural communities have their share of bicycle accidents. Besides being extra carerui wnwn behind the wheel, parents are urged to set a good example for their children in' everyday safety habits and to be firm in insisting on such.basic safety precautions as riding only in safe places, crossing streets or roads only at'intersections, knowing and obeying the traffic rules that apply to bicycles, and respecting policemen. Here are some specific rules for -* youngsters on bicycles that the safety authorities suggest should be taught in the home, as well as at school or wherever "children’s groups can be reached. 1. Ride ,with traffic and keep far right. , 2. Ride in a straight line; no /■weaving or “stunting” in or out of traffic. ^ 3. When with other bicyclists, / ride single file. 4, Never carry a “passenger.” 5. Obey all signs, signal lights and traffic laws, just like up motorists. 's i .JOTlr 6.

Youngsters who know and follow these rules will be able to enjoy their bikes without risking death or injury, or adding gray hairs to the man in the driver’s seat. When they grow up and begin to drive a car, their bicycle training will make them safer and more courteous motorists, safety experts believe.

Jacnues-Yves Cousteau, co-inventor of the Aqua-Lung, is using man-made sea monsters to explore the depths of the sea. Two of the latest vehicles for undersea .work are the Diving Saucer, which resemble* a huge mechanical turtle with gaping tyes and the Halibut, a flat-bellied bottom scooter that houses photographic equipment. The two devices were shown in New York, and Washington during September while the Calypso was making its first visit to the United States. Captain Cousteau, who has headed the National Geographic Society Calypso expeditions since 1952. conceived the Diving Saucer or Turtle , because he needed a highly maneuverable device to take explorer; below 150 feet. , the maximum practical depth of divers with Aqua-Lungs. The vehicle had to be able to go down 900 feet, stay six hours ai d range six miles. The Turtle was constructed by the French Undersea Research Center with National Geograohi; aid and christened in Julv 1959. Measuring 6.5 feet in diameter and 5 feet in height, it has a steel hull with a top hatch. Pilot and observer lie prone on a rubber mattress and peer out the Plexiglass ports. Propulsion comes from two water jets. The interior of the Turtle looks FLe a bowl of instruments. Included are a gyrocompass, automatic pilot, jet control rudders, camera controls, depth gauge and manuals for a hydraulic claw that collects samples of marine life.

Autumn Leaves Turning In Park The colorful autumn season is expected somewhat sooner this year in Shenandoah National Park as an early frost and prolonged dry spell have caused many of the trees and vines to change prematurely. According to Superintendent R. Taylor Hoskins, each day from now until the end of October will bring a noticable change in the annual display of brilliance. Some species of vegetation at the higher levels in the Central District have turned, and it is anticipated that with several days precipitation, the tall pageant may last longer throughout the Park’s length. Present indications point to the period between October 10 and 20 as the peak of coloration, and preparations are being made throughour the Park to welcome the many visitors who plan to enjoy this natural attraction. Past travel records show that heaviest visitation to the Park occurs during the time autumn foliage is most colorful. Heavy use is made of campgrounds and hiking trails as this season of the year becomes increasingly more popular with the traveller. For those who enjoy horseback riding, saddle horses and ponies are available at both Skyland and Big Meadows Stables. For additional information coo ceming Park facilities, write to the Park Superintendent, Shenandoah National Park, Luray, Virginia; and for reservations for overnight accommodations, write to die Virginia Sky-Line Company, Inc, Box 191, Luray, Virginia. “Thanke for the lift", said the woman as she climbed from the plastic surgeon’s chair. * Transient Labor Continued from page one der taken by the Secretary of Labor or anyone else was recognized in the subsequent enactment of Title V of the Agricultural Act of 1949, and amendments, covering the temporary employment of Mexican agricultural workers with in the United States. It should be kept in mind that at no time has the Congress directed 6r sanctioned, an extension of this limited supervisory authority to recruitment of employment of temporary agricultural labor imported from any other place, or of domestic seasonal labor. It has been suggested that the Secretary of Labor desires to provide additional protection for domestic agricultural workers and provide opportunities for seasonal agricultural employment for some of the non-agricultural domestic unemployed. These proposed regu» Iations, however, would have the effect of participating a chaotic situation in many agricultural areas, where equitable and satisfactory arrangements have been developed over the years, wihout any attendant advantage to domestic t workers. you doiit have to ! HOWL for it when you j use the ! smemmm /t.lVWKIl For example,. m my Congressional District ;in. Virginia, fruit farmers have been able to meet their harvest labor requirements only through the recruitment of Bahamans, for whom special housing facilities have been constructed at considerable expense. These measures were taken not by choice, but only because of the non-availability of adequate local Libor. Such local labor, of course, contin ues to be employed ir. this work to the extent it is available. The arrangements for imported workers have worked out satisfactorily. The orchardists can,count on a re* a s o n a b 1 y stable labor supply throughout their relatively short period of intensive harvesting. The workers are insured of sanitary housing facilities and an income which ranges up to $100 a week tor the period. The housing facilities will stand any reasonable inspection, and the income clearly is not below* the "prevailing rate" for such work when performed by domestic labor . Despite such circumstances, which are duplicated in manv other localities, the Secretary of Labor insists that there is a need for Federal regulation of the housing provided and the wages paid, and that the Department of Labor should set aside, or hamstring; existing arrangements which have proved a reasonable solution to the annual problem of seasonal employment in agriculture, for employers and employees alike. If the Federal Government, and! particularly, the Department of Labor, prevails in this effort to “improve” the harvesting of fruit' crops in Virginia, not only the individual fruit farmer, but also the entire economy of a hard-pressed agricultural region will Suffer immediate and substantial injury, and intolerable uncertainty as to the sufficiency of the supply of tjuali field agricultural labor for. future harvests. "It is simply common sense that these fruit farmers will do, and are doing, whatever is required in the matter 'of adequate housing facilities, wages and working conditions generally to obtain the needed worker of acceptable skills, and that they would not incur the added expanses and formalities incident to the importation of seasonal labor from Caribbean islands if such labor were available nearer the orchards. The! non justification and undesirability of these proposed regula tion$ are dealt with logically and incontrovertibly in the brief being submitted by the American Farm Bureau Federation, and I desire to associate myself with the expressions therein and urge that they be given full weight in your finding. If this is done, the finding cannot be other than that no authority of justification exists foi* this proposed extension of Federal regulation of Agriculture. Sincerely yours, Burr P.

Watch for hog prices to level out in next two to three week and then ease downward to about a $13 price. The nation had a 12 per cent larger pig crop this spring but latest reports from growers in the 10 corn belt states indicate that they have slowed down on their intended fall farrowing schedules. Intentions reported in June for fall farrowings of this year werq seven per cent above last year but September reports show an increase of only five per cent. The same states—which produce three-fourths of the nation’s hogs indicated in June that September through November farrowings would be up eight per cent. So far, these are only running five per cent greater. Inventory’ in these states for September 1 shows a five per cent increase in the three to six months group; three per cent hike in the under three months group and a six per cent increase over six months. Total supply projected ahead looks like we are increasing in supply seasonally although the increase a year ago has been shrinking due to earlier farrowing and marketing. We will approach the peak early in October.at threa to five pdr cent over last year. Last week Western markets were bringing $13.50 to $14.00 for top hogs. Baltimore was bringing $15 and in Southeast Virginia $14.25 to $14.75. Richmond hogs were bringing $14.75 to $15. 'Hogs in the Virginia Auctions were averaging $14.75.

Last week there were four special graded yearling sales in the state_bringing approximately fifty cents more than in comparable sales a year ago. More head were consigned to these sales too—approximately 4,000 head compared to last year’s 3,000. In these sales prices ran like this: in the 750 to 900 pound range, the good, choice and fancy ranged from ^3 to ^8. jvieaiums ranged from $24 to $26. In the 550 to 700 pound range, the good, choice and fancy ranged from $28 to $30.25. Over 900 pound yearling steers brought $23 to $25.50. This is an excellent time to sell but it is a time for careful consideration as a buyer, especially if thinking of herd expansion. HAY If you plan to sell hay this year, there’s no advantage to waiting. There’s not much moving in Virginia now, but if a dealer has an order for hay he’s likely to offer Valley' farmers from $23 to $25 a ton for number 2 leafy alfalfa...... that’s generally 2nd or 3rd cutting. Clover and timothy will bring you $17 to $20 in the same area. Richmond buyers are offering slightly higher prices.

Anderson Of Rapp’k. First Wounded In Civil War Reprinted from the Fir pint* Star, Culpefer Virginia, the issue of June 2, 1927 after being submitted to us by Mrs. A. G. Latham of Amissville. • - , Fairfax, June .1, 1927—A distinguished company gathered at Hutmark Friday afternoon on the Lee Highway, two miles north of Fairfax, to commemorate a hitherto unrecorded Civil War episode which ouccred on the morning of May 27, 1861, sixty-six years ago. Fairfax Chapter, United Daughters of the Confederacy, unveiled a monument to Peyton Anderson, the first Confederate soldier to be wounded in the War Between the States. Many places of historic interest in the county surburban of Washington, south of the Potomac, which would otherwise be forgotten are being marked by the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Daughters of the Confederacy. The monument erected to Peyton Anderson is a bowlder of the famous Fairfax pink granite, quarried at Falls Church, and bears a bronze tablet with the following inscription: “Peyton Anderson of the Rappahannock Calvary, was severely wounded on picket duty 122 feet "northwest of this spot May 27, 1861. The first soldier of the South to • shed blood for the Confederacy. Erected by Fairfax Chapter, U.D.C., Msy 27, 1927.” The address of the afternoon was delivered by Representative R. Wakon Moore, of Fairfax. Mr. Moore outlined the events leading up to that of May 27,1861, and eulogized all the men of the South who had shed their blood for a “cause which went down to defeat! without dishonor.” Just as the Mississippi River, whose mighty waters are now flooding the Middle West and bringing sorrow and destruction to countless thousands has its beginning in an obscure little lake in the North, ao die event* of May 27, 186!, at this spot in Fairfax County "started a mighty stream of Mood, winch , swelled to a crimson tide, bearipg on its bosom the destines of men and States. This mounment is dedicated by the Daughters of the Confederacy in loving testimony and as an enduring evidence of their pride in and affection for those gallant youths of a previous generation who gave an example of heroism and self-sacrifice rarely equalled in the history of nations.” The monument was unveiled by litle Miss Martha Anderson, 7year-old daughter of Joseph Anderson of Richmond, and granddaughter of Peyton Anderson. The latter* widow was present.' Other members of. the family present included the son, Joseph Anderson of Richmond; two daughters, Miss Fannie Anderson of Washington, D. C. and Mrs. Clifford Latham of Amissville; three nephews, Warren Anderson of Washington, Dr. J. B. Anderson of McLean and H. H.. Anderson of Falls Church, and five grandchildren including little Peyton Anderson, 3rd, who held a Confederate Flag over the monument during the ex erases. The history of the events of May 27, 1861 has been authenticated by the Fairfax Chapter from old records aind the accounts of eyewitnesses. One week after Virginia had adopted its order of secession in the spring of 1861, the “Old Guard” of Rappahannock County, one of the first military units to be called to the Confederate colors, whose history dates back to 1812, left its home county and . proceeded east to become a part of Company B of die 6th Virginia Calvary. It was attached to 'EwcRY command, which in May was quartered at Fairfax Court 'House. Orders were given to guard all (pads, leading into Fairfax, and oo' that May morning, 66 yean ago, two young privates, both natives pf Rappahannock County, Peyton Anderson and Williamf Lillard, were assigned to picket duty on the Falls Church road with instructions to fire two shots of meat IfieSS Ideabook for 19S9 Now Available It's the greatest ever published I 84 colorful idea-inspiring pages — including complete room decoration designs by the nation’s foremost interior decorators.

At da)fcreak, Anderson and Lilia rd we^-e suddenly surrounded by a detachment from the 2nd New York Calvary, which had come out from Washington, and in the skirmish which ensued Anderson was so severely wounded that he fell from his' horse and was left on the field for dead. Lillard was taken to Washington, the first Confederate prisoner of war, and his capture is said to have created enormous public interest. Anderson lay unconscious until 4 o’clock, when he was able to stagger to a nearby farm house for aid. He later recovered sufficiently to servo under CoL Mosby. On the following June 1 the same troop of New York Calvary returned to r air fax Court House, where in the engagement John Quincy Marr, the captain of the Warren ton Rifles, was killed ii> action, the first soldier to give his life for the cause of the South. A monument in front of the court house commemorates the spot where he fell. Annually on that date the vererans of Marr’s Camp meet with their friends- in the court house to hear an address. Following Mr. Moore’s speech Friday afternoon two slips of ivy were planted by Mrs. F. D. Richardson, president of the Fairfax U.D.C. and Mrs. John Barbour, of Fairfax under whose direction the historical data for this event has been gathered. Mrs. Barbour is the niece of William Li Hard, Anderson’s companion, and the daughter of the late Judge Grimsley of Rappahannock County, a corporal of the 6th Virginia Calvary at the time of the episode and later promoted to the rank of colonel. As a child Mrs. Barbour frequently heard the story of this encounter, and when the Fairfax Chapter started preparations for erection of the memorial die was able to produce an account of tfci>‘ incident in her father’* handwriting, found after hit death in the saddle bags he carried during the war.

Since the counties of Page, Rap pahannock, Kockmgham, snenandoah and Warren and the City o£ Harrisonburg were chosen by the Virginia State Department of Health gnd the UnTted States) Public Health Service for an intensive campaign against all types of accidents, the Virginia Safety Association was invited to participate iri arranging a regional conference for this area.

Rambling* From Rappahannock DEAR FOLKS What a week! What a Tuesday! It’s a mad house; worse than usual, but one way of getting around everything and to have some real fun is to “j’*n fbe <*1* vary”. But as the saying goes if you can keep calm in all this confusion you just don’t understand the situation. It’s hot again and after having sucb delightful weather for the past several days, the heat makes you feel terrible. • As you read in last week’s paper ^ur Congressman, Burr Harrison was in the county today, and if there is one .person that doesn't change any it’s our Congressman. We are all asking one big question now: Where was Sarah today between 12 and 12:30? It took exactly one half an hour for her to reach our house from the News Office. You know it’s hard to believe that yesterday was the first day of! Fall, but looking out of the window by my desk the sun is low and the town is beginning to look lonely. There’s a little sad feeling I guess for everyone about now. We all hate to see the flowers die and the leaves fall from the trees, but after a while it is nice to sit near the fireplace, pop corn and have your family around you and all is well.. Once Louemma Moffett told me years ago that one of the best feelings in the World was to have your family home safely tucked in bed and to kiww where each and every member was. After raising a family we can all appreciate what she meant. I know I can. I just wish once I could write you, our readers, a letter and tell you exactly what we have seen and heard in one day. Maybe someday. I’ll guarantee.it would make very interesting reading! Manners and fortunes, humans NOW! D. P.

Rappahannock New.* Washington, Virginia Tuesday, September 22, 1959 Forgot to mention in my Ramblings that in Culpeper Monday right many of the unmarried ladies told me they were thinking very seriously of moving to Rappahannock. It seems that life here would be very interesting for them. MYSTERY FARM The Mystery Farm last week was the home of William Yancy, about one mile w'est of VVoodville. The farm consists of 25 acres of land which Mr. Yancy rents for grazing. Mr. Yancy lives there alone. He is a member of the Episcopal Church.
