This year a record number of 379,018 girls enrolled in 12,579 high schools throughout the 50 states and District of Columbia. This is an increase of 29,868 girls and 357 schools over last year. Alaska and Hawaii are participating for the first time. Congregational Meeting At Reynolds Memorial A Congregational meeting will be held Sunday, February 21 following the 10 a.m. worship service at Reynolds Memorial Baptist Church in Sperryville. Rev. Edward Nicholson, pastor of the church, requests that all members be presentf Sunday school will be held at 11 a.m. Auxiliary Invitation Well Received The Ladies Auxiliary to the Washington Fire Company are very satisfied with the response received from cards mailed out inviting the ladies of Hampton District to join the organization. You do not have to be an active member, so if you have not joined the Auxiliary , do so at once. The dues are $120 a year. Who knows, you may be the next to need the assistance of the'fire company. On brief notice, a group of Rappahannock citizens estimated at 125 persons, assembl 'd last Thursday evening at the Flint Hill Fire Hall to hear Allen Johnson1, a banker of New Market, report on a garment industry interested in coming to Rappahannock, Being a member of the group which suceeded in getting the fium ___& to open a business m Nov Market in 1957, Mr. Johnson gave an interesting and valuable report on their experiences. Six men, putting Up $50.00 each, formed the New Market Development Corporation. They bought three acres of land and got to work felling stock in ap effort to raise $40,000.00 for a building “shell” with 10,000 square feet of floor space. They got the facts, contacted about 300 persons in their effort to sell stock, raised ^hirty odd thousand dollars. Stock sold at $100.t>0 a share with an average investment of $300.00 per investor. A lease purchase agreement was drawn between the firm and the New Market Development Corporation whereby the building shell of cinderblock with brick veneer on three sides would be paid for in nine years bearing 5% interest. They set out to do this in 60 days. In 90 days an attractive building was completed ard the firm had movea in. = The firm drilled a Well for the air of : plumbing, heating, air conditioning (facilities and Wired tshe building. The plumbing was connected to the town water" system. The. frm drilled a well for the air conditioning. Since then the facility has doubled in size. The firm has establshed an excellent public relations. The New “Market Development Corporation is doing well financially. They are enjoying deep satisfaction over having made a valuable contribution to their community. The industry has in no way depreciated value of other property. There is no ,noise, no unpleasant odor. It is a growing industry having been in business for 15 years. Orders in hand exceed present production facilities by $20,000,000. It is their policy to establish in communities where they are wanted. Communities where people want industry and are willing to invest their time and money to get it. To Go To Culpeper Mr. Johnson reported Culpeper is well on its way toward getting the industry to establish there, Giles Miller being on the steering committee. This community is expected to break ground shortly. Marshall is negotiating. P. W. Anderson reports it is a reputable firm. Rased on talks with the parent firm, Mr. Johnson felt Rappahannock could get the industry to locate here in six to twelve months if her people would get to work. The industry is non-unionized; has headquarters, including sales force, designers, etc. in. New York. Women represent 90% of their employees. At New Market, the industry is now managed by a local person. It also has a going concern at Strasburg where this plant has been in operation six years. Committee Elected At the conclusion of the Flint Hill meeting, a committee from the various sections of the county was selected to: find out if the people of Rappahannock want such an industry; whether they are will, ing to inverfttheir time and money toward geutn^it; learn more about the rating of the firm, etc. Those chosen were: Herb e rt Barksdale of Flint Hill, M.^ft. Greeley of Chester Gap, L. B. Stuart of Amissville, Ray Cannon of pistleton, Mrs. Perle Coffey of Sperryville, Jimmy Falls of Wbodville, VV. H. Lyne, Washington, and E. A.. Harris, Huntly. People are requested to contact one of these persons (Carson Johnson or John Eubank may also be contacted in Sperryville) and express their views between now and February 25th On this date they will meet at the Barksdale residence to report their findings to each other. Based on interest expressed by our people our banks and our businesses the committee will decide what furth- - er action should be iniated. This temporary committee plans to solicit no money at present. Probably another county-wide meeting of Rappahannock citizens will be called in March. Possibly the committee will visit the Strasburg and New Market plants. It has been suggested that representatives of these plants and possibly a representative of the parent plant be invited to come to Rappahannock. A lot more “getting acquainted’* seems in order. Strasburg Workers Present Some how workers from the Strasburg plant had heard of the interest in Rappahannock. Several were at the meeting at Flint Hill. They had not been invited, but came on their own because of their interest They reported of training the industry gives prospective enii poyees, starting salaries, pay advances, fringe benefits, etc. Local Lady Likes Product Mrs. Harry Lee Smith reports having purchased clothing manufactured by the industry which has been very satisfactory. Meeting Favors Industry Those attending the Flint Hill meeting from all parts of the county were unanimously in 'favor of getting a desirable industry to locate in Rappahannock. Next morning two of our leading citizens, C. E. Johnson, Jr. and C. J. Miller, Jr. expressed interest and voiced Rappahannock’s need for a greater income. Did You Shovel The Snow Away From Your Mail Box? Due t(| the snow we have had, it has been impossible for the rural' and star mail carriers to get to the mailboxes of their patrons. The law of the U. S. Post Office says .All snow or a«y other obstruction must be cleared from the front of rural mail boxes or the patron has the privilege of moving his box to make the delivery more convenient to the carrier to deliver mail from his car. As of Tuesday, no snow had been cleared in front of any of the boxes on the Washington rural routes and only three on the. star route which were Emerson Smith, Clarence Wharton and Edward Jordan.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS' . y (PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING fct'^aahington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2861 _M.---;—BXsiL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Jnterad aa Second Clast Mail at tfaePoet Office at WaahingtonTva. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance). .$2.50 PER YEAR TO THE EDITOR, ' RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS: The |arge turn out at Flint Hill Fire Ffouse last Thursday was a surprising indication that many residents of Rappahannock are enthusiastic regarding the possibility of a clean,noiseless* respectable in4ustry settling in the county. ' The plan, should it materialize, would require the construction or otherwise obtaining by resident^ of the county, a cinder block bunding; brick-faced on'three sides, on a tract of about three acres to include ample off-streeVf£rking. The company would^lease the building for a guaranteed period of ten years; would provide its owA water, light, heat, electricity anaother necessary facilities; and pay sufficient rent to retire a 5 7c bond issue within the period of the lease at which time the comp^ any woud assume ownership of the building. Such an arrangement is desirable in that it assures local interest in the financial success of the enterprise, and by the proposed hiring of local insofar as possible makes the product a matter of local pride. Let us all remember, however, that should the present possibility materialize that it will require the cooperation and constructive effort of the residents of the County. First of all, a positive desire for the industry must be shown by the pledging for the purchase of a Bond issue which will be required when and if a decision is made by industry to copie here. Second, a list must be obtained of those who would apply for work in the proposed plant, for no industry desires to establish itself in a community if- the labor force is not available. The temporary committee now working in the various communities of the county is interested in: (a) Do you want an industry in the county? ' (b) Would you subscribe to a bond issue to assist in establishing such an industry if it were found necessary ? ** (c) Would you desire work in such a plant ? Everyone should see his community member of the temporary committee if he has not yet seen you, and let him know how you feel. L. B. Stuart . Member Temporary Committee For Amissville Area YOUR , 'CONGRESSMAN REPORTS , .< Rrf Hvtt P. Harrisbn Washington—Opponents of various expensive proposals for new or expanded Federal activities often caution that their acceptance “would lead to a welfare state”. This has become a pathetic waning. We have had a welfare state for years. The only question remaining is whether or not it is to continue to grow in authority and influence over the daily lives of citizens at the rapid rate of the recent past. Senator Harry J". Byrd recalled recently that when he came to the Senate in 1936 there were only 17 Federal programs formoney grants to States and local units. By 1959, the total had grown to 60 such programs. A compilation by a national magazine, citing Budget Bureau figures, showed Federal cash outlays for welfare programs nearly tripling since President Eisenhower took over from President “Truman'. Without debating the merits of any particular program, it may be of interest to note that the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1960, is expected tQ see disbursement by the Federal Government of checks totaling more than $20 bilion in what might be grouped generally as social welfare activities. More than $11 y4 billion, for example, will go out in old-age-insurance pensions. Disability pensions will add more than $600 million, and civil service and railroad pensions will account for nearly $2 billion more. Another $2 billion will ^ be paid out for public assistance—“relief”, and more than 2yj billion for unemployemnt benefits and efforts to find jobs for the unem ployed. Something over $900 million in Federal money will be spent on hospitals and other costs directly related to public health, and there will be such lesser expenditures as $130 million for school lunches and more than $500 million for grants arid loaps to students and educational institutions. The $20 billion of course, doei not include the other billions which will be spent for purposes which while not embraced in the usual concept of social welfare, do involve Federal cash benefits for individuals, such as payments to veterans and farmers. In addition, Federal money will otitinue to flow by the billions into the States and local communities for activities related to the -— $2.50 PER YEAR RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS Date. State NAME.— R. F. D. or Box No. . ' CRjr.— From□ NEW □ RENEWAL .Amount 9..To Signed general welfare. The 66. grant-in-aid program* mentioned by Senator Byrd an active in 1959 included $2.5 billion, under the huge Federal highway plan and ranged downward to the allotments of varying amounts in the millions for assorted good works, in the list of which we find subsidization of public housing in the cities, wildlife restoration, airport" improvement, lease of flood control lands, cooperative agricultural extension Wbrk, urban planning and renewal, construction of sewage treatment plants, education of {ndians, library services. Wc could consider at length the origin^ purposes and results of any one of these programs. If we did, we might conclude that the Federal Government necessarily was involved in some of them; had a doubtful .role-in others, had no business in still others. The fact is, g though, that the Federal Government is engaged in all of these, and more, and the history of the past quarter-century or so makes plain that Federal activities rarely are terminated, rarely shrink, almost invariably grow and multiply. Though we shy away from the label, then, we do have a(_welfare state. The condition, if not the name, must bring comfort to many citizens, because there is strong not a partisan matter—for expanded nondefense Federal operations over and jM&ve the increases proposed inonresident 'Eisenhower’s record peacetime budget. If the people are dispaMd to rely on a Federal fountainhead in Washington, for increasing direction*, guidance and support in their daily lives, the fabulous growth of the welfare state in recent years is in accordance with the public will. If not, the time is late for a protest which could curb the upward course of Federal spending and bring some of the problems of living back home for a leas bureaucratic and more economical solution. | Kapp - Chats j Fy \v.

Mrs. Frances Thornton called to my attention a listing per house hold income in forty odd Virginia counties which appeared in the Times Dispatch a week ago today. That for Rappahannock was the LOWEST. $3443f; Culpeper $4618, etc. (SoLtfcPsurvey of BuyHCHT HEART DISEASE ing Power, 1959, Sd» Management, Inc).

Strength For Life As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings.” Deut. 32:11 From the most ancient times the eagle has been universally regarded as the emblem of vision, might and courage., By her extraordinary power of vision she is able to forsee the approaching dangers and plain wisely how to avoid many of the natural calamities that would prove destructive to her and her young ones. The eagle makes use of her vision in that she builds her nest high on a cliff. She knows that one day it will become the birth place and home of Her young eaglets. She wants the home of her young ones to be safe and secure from the enemies that would rob and destroy her young ones of life and the opportunity to grow up and to fulfill the mission and pur' pose for which they were born. She also wants the home of her young eaglets to be a suitable place in which she can give them the proper training for their mission in ife. The mother eagle has in mind what she wants her young ones to do and she trains thtem to this end. She wants her young ones to be properly trained and perpared before they leave the nst and go out on their own. The young eaglets do not learn to fly by chajice, but they are taught by the mother eagle. "As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over ;her young, spreadeth abeareth on her wings.” The one time comfortable nest is disrupted \and made uncomfortable by the mother. This is the way she prepares them to leave the nest. "She fluttereth over her young.” The mother is training her young to use their wings. This process is repeated day after day until the mother knows ^hat they are ready for a more adi’tw'ced lesson in the art of flying. Th*p die spreads abroad her strong wings, takes her young and soars out into the open sky and Rids Cattlo off flies, lice, J GRUBS Jr WIK INSECTICIDI APPLICATOR enables all your cattle to rub themselvei free of pests that rob them of weight and value. Hie WIK is now available with portable stand—set it up anywhere. SO/000 CATTLEMEN now use WIK Applicators. Top reservoir and wick-type feed automatically, keep WIK deadly to insects. Refill only once in 80 days — stays on job 100% of the time. No danger of over-dosing cattle with too much insecticide. WIK roll encased in almost indestructible Nylon—lifetime steel chassis. One low-cost unit lasts k years and years. Gill Implement Company, Inc. Warrenton, Virginia swoops out from under them and bears them up again and again until they have learned to fly on their own. Thusu the mother has taught her young ones the art of being able to haveaceess to both land and sky. Thus the mother has accomplished her. task in that she has prepared her offspring to go out from the once comfortable little home.__wtll trained and prepared for their mission and purpose of life. Should parents not use as much of their God given vision and foresight as : the mother eagle does when she plans and builds her home for her young eaglets? Children do not just happen to grow up to be good, honest and God fearing citizens. The seeds must be sown and cultivated in the home. Many parents have been denied of seeing their children grow up well trained and prepared for life because they failed to use vision and foresight in the planning and establishing of their homes. A home that is not planned and built around God is doomed to failure. The offspring who goes out from the home that is not centered around God and His teaching will be somewhat like the young leaving the nest without having been trained toi fly. The young eaglets may be able to survive, but just look how much of the real joy of life would be theirs if they had been taught before leaving their nest. Children who go out from homes without having learned to trust and have faith in God may be able to survive, but they will not likely discover their read purpose and mission in life. Therefore the parents are responsible to give their children the type of training that will enable them to go out from the home trained and prepared to make the proper use of their God given mental, physical and spiritual powers. , Rev.

Ramblings From Rappahannock DEAR FOLKS What a weekend, but the children love it, (so does Sarah), so I guess it’s O.K. Had planned the supper club Saturday night.first Bert Spalding called then Eva Smith, they couldn’t come. Joe artd Claire Pause’ were sick, but Harry Lee and Virginia Smith were really coming. “Yes indeed”, said Virginia, “we have chains on.” That was until about 5 :30 Saturday evening when she' called to say they couldn’t make it. Well Arthur and I enjoyed .Our company dinner on TV trays in front of the fire place watching TV, but we did miss our guests. Saw Gordon Fishhback in Gills at Warrenton this morning. We were talking about what a nice, time we had at Oliver and Emily Dh rant's. Gordon said the best dancer he danced with was Miss Gertie Durant and she is sure that ‘Rock and Roll’ is here to stay. Isn’t she wonderful-!! Well the Thomas Williams have a new son. “B” Miller asked one of the children what they were ‘‘We want to name it after a TV star, but we think daddy’s going to name it after that old "B” Miller.” They all got fooled! Sunday morning, Rusty, the nice 9ld doy that belongs to Dump and and 'Brucie Bruce’s lilly pond. Charlie heard him, went out and gave him a good yank-.pulled him out, wiped him dry and sent him homel Just talked to Rev. Parrish. He had been up to see Fred Schaefer. Said Fred was doing fine and he hoped to be home before too much longer. It was also grand to hear that Cousin Bob Miller is improving so nicely. I ajn certainly happy I will be in Front Royal Friday and Culpepet Monday take advantage of the marvelous sales. I am not fooling.I know they are putting on the real “old timey” sales when1 they practically give away thngs in the stores. Aren’t we glad George Washington had a birthday?? For more reasons than one! (Of course always patronize the advertisers in your "News” before others. They offer you the same.)

How Long Must I Work To Draw Social Security? How long must I work in order to qualify for social security benefits? Miss Florence Schaffner, Field Representative of the Alexandria Sosial Security Office, said * this is a question frequently, asked, arid here is the answer: The amount of work will vary from 154 to 10 years, depending upon a person’s date of birth. If you reached retirement age, (62 for women, 65 for men), before July 1, 1954, you would be eligible with 1 54 years. Most people now reaching age 65 need to have at least 454 years of earnings on their social security account. People reaching 65 later will need even more credits. The general rule is that you wifi need one quarter of work (earned after 1936) for each two quarters from 1950 until the year you reach retirement age. The social security office will be glad to mail you a pamphlet which shows exactly how much work you need based on your age. Write for it—Social Security Administration P. O. Box 118, Alexandria, Va.

Demand Strong For Angus Cattle Results of last year’s Virginia feeder calf sales again prove that demand for Angus cattle remains strong and that cattle feeders are willing! to pay more per pound for Angus; than for any other breed. The blacks also bring producers more dollars per head. Figures recently released by the Virginia extension service are based on results at 27 sales in which 33,882 calves were sold by Virginia cattlemen. The 14,735 Angus calves in the sales averaged $4.32 more per head than the next highest breed. The Angus sale average was $134.82 pe~ head compared to $130.50 per head for the other breed. The difference per hundredweight was 79 cents. Angus steers in the sales averaged $31.15 per cwt. and Angus heifers sold at an average of $26.46 per-huhdred. Angus was the only breed with a sale average higher tharl the average of all the calves sold. The main reason for the superior record of the Angus calves in the sales was their quality.

Hooked On Creasey Greens Horner^ Pushing ’Em Hard When I perched myself in the platform rocker Sunday night to read the Washington Post, / had flipped just a couple of pages and there staring at me from Aubrey Graves column leas Newt Rowzic, •a Rappahannock native, with his mouth wtde open, shoving into it the biggest fork full of cresses I have ever seen. L Homer and Newton Rowzie are both originally from Rappahannock County, the sons of the late Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Rowzie of Amissville. Their brother Ralph Rowzie still resides at the home place and is the only person l know who eats cold cress salad for a midnight snack or for breakfast. Below is a reprint of Country Livin' by Aubrey Craves, Squire of Grigsby Hill, who is a columnist for the IVashington Post. ''That old wheeze, “you can take ^he boy out of the country, but you can’t take the country out of the boy,” certainly applies to my genial neighbor, Homer Rowzie. They took Homyr out of Amissville, Va., a quarter of a century or so ago, but they couldn’t separate him from his taste for creasey ■greens. For a living, our perennial country boy engages in arithmetical exercises over at the Government accounting Office, keeping track of who spends how much of the tax payers’ money for what. Outside the office, he has three big enthusiasms, rated roughly in t&i$ order: U *^Tiat delectable member of the mustard family hereinbefore mentwfiwl. y^*An Alaskan Malamute, which ( throws a ball that Homer retrieves, and •Frances, his cherished bride of many years. Homer and Frances, who live on Marshall Rd., Vienna, Va., staged a creasey greens extravaganza the other night, with brother Newton Rowzie, Bob and Edna Kearney, YVilda Harris, LeRoy Nieman and the residents of Grigsby Hill Farm as visiting gourmets. The Rowzies mad converts of us all. The stuff is not only rich in mineral but, cooked with “streak meat”H layers of lean alternating with layers of fat), it’s downright palatable. Creasey greens, known to the elite as upland cress, grow wild in many sections of rural Virginia, notably around Front Royal and in Rappahannock County. Homer as a boy used to cut it out of wheat fields in the winter time. When he moved to Fairfax County, some upland cress seeds were in Homer’s pocket and creasev gre?ns have been conspicious in his vegetable garden ever since. One unsubstantiated rumor has it that he's a secret source for Bolgiano, who has been inveigled into packaging the seed for sale. Wh tt.s known for sure is that Coin 's evangelism on behalf of t!v delicacy has?made it increasing1\ p-i'nlar in Fairfax County. R ’<-' frnizing a good thing in the ■raCmr. Brown’s Meat Market in Falls Church started importing the vegetable from the Shenandoah Valley severed years ago. And now the market has made a deal with the iHawksbill Cannery' at Turay, Va. At the cannery creasey greens are cooked with country meat as seasoning, and canned. They are delivered ready to eat; they need only to be warmd up. “We get then in 75 to 100-case lots,” said a Brown’s spokesman last week, “and they go like hotcakes.” —j Someone passed along the word that a boxcar load of fresh upland cress had arrived here last week from Florida and could be had at the farm market at 7th and O Sts. nw. Dashing over there, I found the report true. The pressure cooker will be working overtime in a certain Centreville kitchen this weekend! Upland cress is dissimilar in appearance but has about the same favor as its oouiin, water-cress, which grows in running water in sandy creek bottoms.
