Rappahannock News, April 28, 1960

I. 0. Wolf Named library Finance Committee Ch’mn. Mr. Irvin Wolf of Sperryville was named Chairman of t,he Finance Committee for the Rappahannock Library, organized last week to raise funds for the restoration of the old Presbyterian church building on Gay Street. The Trustees announced last week that they had received a grant of $3,000 to start this fund and the Finance Committee will start to work at once on a county-wide campaign to raise the balance of the funds needed to restore the building to its original beauty, for use as a public library. It is hoped that work on the new roof can be started soon to prevent further deterioration of the building. The Trustees wish to tjhiank those people who have .offered help in various ways and ask their continued cooperation and support. The new library is a project for the entire community and every resident is urged to take some part in its establishment. Those who have so generously offered collections of books and some furnishings are asked to hold them for the library until storage space can be found. Those who are in a position to contribute services of any kind will be most welcome and are asked to talk to the Trustees: Mr. Freer Wilson of Flint Hill; Mrs. Virginia Miller of Washington; Mr. Tom Pillar and Mrs. Elizabeth Johnson of Sperryville. Rummage Sale In Flint Hill The Home Demonstration Club of Flint H'H will hold a rummage sale May 14 in front of Bradford’s Store in Flint Hill beginning at 10 a.m. Proceeds will go toward ,the Dental Clinic for the county schools.

Weather permitting Oliver Atkips will collect tin cans at his regular time, the first Monday of the month. Industry Pledges Growing Steadily A total of $2,200 has been received to date to add to the $25,400 received in pledges last week, making a grand total of $27,WO pledged for the Industry Development for Rappahannock County. Chairmen of the districts are working hard to see every person in their district. If your committeeman has not called at your home or seen you- use the pledge form in this paper or secure a pledge card from a representative near you. Mrs. Virginia Miller, Washington; H. S. Barksdale, Flint Hill; Mrs. Perle Coffey, Sperryville; Ray Cannon, Castleton; L. B. Stuart, Amissville; Clarence Johnson, Woodville; M. A. Greeley, Chester Gap. We understand a neighboring county is very anxious to have the industry and the sooner we reach the quota of $40,000 that Rappahannock has to raise, the sooner we will be sure of having the Aileen Garment Manufacturing Company in Rappahannock County. Open Letter From The Red Cross Wc hope that the Red Cross Campaign will soon be coming to a successful close and, due to unusual weather in March, there have been many delays in completing our collections for 1960. The committee realizes the many demands that have been placed on our contributors. We fully realize that they have been forced to delay doing many things they want most to do. That is the reason why many have not yet sent in their contribution, or given it to a solicitor. When these are all in, the 1960 quota of $17,300 will have been met, and the Fauquier Chapter will be in a position to carry out the program that has been planned to help alleviate the many community needs. The amount is about the same that was raised in 1959. struction, more Gray Ladies and Nurses Aides to help in the hospital. We need more and ever more blood and the program will be carried out to secure a larger blood collection which is MOST vital Continued On Page twelve FIVE OWNERS IN WINNER’S CIRCLE FOR!VIRGINIA GOLD CUP The 35th running of the Virginia Gold Cup at William Schlusemeyer’s Broadview Estate on Saturday, May 7th at Warrenton, Va. is again proving to be the focal point of interest among the local owners ortimber horses. This year there is particular incentive as the current Gold Cup was placed into competition in 1954 and during the succeedipg five runnings, five different owners have had their colors carried jinto the winner’s circle. Thus ttye retirement of the Cup is still an! eventuality as one owner must win it three times before it becomes! his or her property. While Broadview has been the site of this race meeting for years, this will be the first time that Mr. Schlusemeyer will have had a color-bearer in the Virginia Gold Cup. The recently purchased Logistics is being pointed for the Old Dominion timber classic as his stablemate, Mainstay. From nearby Orlean, ownerbreeder Capt. J. L. B. Bentley plans to serid his mare who previously earned the title of champion timber horse of the year.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 286i BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as Second Class Mall at the Poet Office at Washington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance) $2.60 PER YEAR YOUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS 8c Rev. Tiurr P. Harrison Washington—This is the season during which thousands of high school students from all sections of the United States visit Washington and observe the structures which serve .as tangible symbols of our form of government. It would be an interesting commentary on a generation’s view of its elders in power if each young visitor could record his impressions of the Nation's Capital. The serene dignity of the White House rooms which are open to the public and the solemnity of the Supreme Court Chamber certainly would be found in sharp contrast in the memories of many with the impression of compounded confusion they formed at the Capitol. dhe workshop of the legislative R ranchthe people's elected representatives certainly does not convey the idea of an efficient mechanism. Few colleagues mav be present on the floor of House or Senate while a member is deIvering an extended and earnest address .many will be in committee sessions. A committee meeting may drone on in repetitious utterance of the same arguments for or against a bill. Many a visitor must have an impulse to call out: “Come on; let’s get on with it! Vote on the bill and get on to something else.” Rut would a more “efficient” in the public interest ? FVrhaps more of the upwards of 15,000 bills so far offered in this Congress. ^iow in its second year, would reach final action if committee and floor discussion were limited severely and the measures hurried to a vote. On the other hand, the average farmer or businessman can make out a fairly strong case that we have entirely too many laws already.that one requires special legal and accounting talent mere. ly to keep out of jail. When we get right down to it, we may have to acknowledge that a representative democracy is not the most efficient type of government. Rut let us be careful here..-. that is the contemptous evaluation which fascists and communists alike make of our republic. Whatever its shortcomings in formalized “efficiency”, we maintain that itvdividual freedom of expression and the privilege of every citizen to contribute to the shaping and reshaping of, his government outweigh immeasurably the pseudoefficiency wc have traded for these values. national legislature I do not Know a mruiuci >>> Gmgfcss who docs, not experience times of exasperation with-the mechanics of the Legislative Branch, or who has not muttered about the intransigent ignorance of a colleague advancing views sharply opposed to his own. A painstakinglywrought piece of legislation may he mangled beyond its author s recognition in committee or on the floor of House or Senate. The result may prove 'better or worse than the orginal draft, but, in any event, the representatives of the. people have worked their will. If, in their efforts, they have' grossly misjudged the wishes of those they have been sent to Washington to represent, those citizens have in their hands the power to call them to ."..count. Members of Congress, of both parties, often are exhorted to “forget politics?” and “do the right thing”. This is an excellent tenet, of course, if, by it, we mean the exercise of best judgment in the interest of those one represents, without special regard for purely personal considerations. There are times in which a conscientious, legislator, having the benefit of more thorough examination of the implications of a piece of legislation, should be expected to vote contrary to the indicated majority view of his constituents, who have not had the opportunity to consider the bill fully. On the other hand, to suggest that an elected Representative or Senator consistently follow a line of action contrary to the determinable will of his constituency, because “the people don’t know what’s good for them”, is to subscribe to an autocratic philosophy. It would nullify the strength and value of our verbose, seemingly haphazard method of lawmaking, which, despite its “inefficiency”, has proved its responsiveness to shifts in a people’s concept of governmental function, and preserved them from a dictatorship of selfst\led “best-minds.” How Well Can Your Child Read? E'xerpts of an editorial in the April 15th issue of the Drovers Journal entitled “Federal Aid No School Cure-All” seems timely. To quote but a'few sentences: “Reading and self-study are the corneistones of learning.Many of our children do not read simply because they are not taught, encouraged, or given a place to read...Two few parents themselves read and take the trouble to introduce their chil - dren to the joys of reading.good reading. The biggest fault seen in today’s high school graduates who try to enter college is that they don’t know how to read.” Rappahannock is on the verge of turning out a new crop of high school graduates, completing a new high school and getting a library. There isn’t- much that can be done now toward encouraging the graduates to get the reading habit but when it comes to our new school and the library we will have provided a better place to read and ultimately good reading material. This is our business, your responsibility as well as mine. Older ones set the example.kids are copycats of either their parents or older brothers or sisters. One school teacher told me “the child who learns to read quickest and best is the child whose parents CHARCOAL STEAKS CHICKEN IN-THE-ROUGH Entrance to SKYLINE DRIVE Belle Boyd RESTAURANT Front Royal, Va, have read bed-time stories to and the child who learns to read well in the first grade has an advantage throughout his school years.

Rumblings From Rappahannock Dear Folks Honestly, if «e aren’t freezing to death, we are burning up, but after this past winter I will certainly pot be one to complain. Louemma rode with me today to Culpeper and Warren tom We had a nice trip. The dogwood and red bud in the mountains and along the fence rows are gorgeous as well as the cultivated early flowering shrubs. The apple orchards are in full bloom and if bloom is a sign, there will be another bumper crop this year. According to the hikers who were on the Drive Sunday, the foliage or bloom is not out at all up there. Our hats are certainly off to the ladies of the Rappahannock Gar-' den Club for the work they have done and for the wonderful job they wjill undertake next—that of landscaping the grounds tof our new Rappahannock County High Schoolj The silver offering taken at the flower show Thursday will go toward this work, so we hope everyone will attend and help out. There is a heck of a lot of ground to cover. Saw Dr. George Davis in Warrenton today. He is always .so nice and jolly and I enjoy talking to him. He sent a hello to his friends in Rappahannock. He keeps up with the folks through this paper. He used to read it down at Tom Frost’s and remarked that he enjoyed it so a relative sent it to him as a gift. With Mother’s Day coming up and. graduation too, that is a good idea to keep in mind. Lots of the grads will be going away and would like to hear from home. "Dee” Amory is the “travelingest” person_.even beats me. She certainly made the rounds while visiting Julia and Jimmie Settle. Just heard that Miss Dolly Hite is in the county. Everyone has missed her and we’re always glad when she comes back for a visit. Diane DeBergh just wouldn’t take my word the other day, that the squire wagon parked in front of the News office was ours. She insisted it was Jim Bill’s, so I told her he gave it to me for Christmas. She is so cute, but certainly not good for me when she walks in with an ice cream cone for me every' few days. Saw my friend, Mr. Wallace in Frqnt Royal Friday. He gave me two pounds of delicious Hunt Club pig sausage. Surely is good. Mr. Many went home today with an acute case of bersitus. We have had it tough at the office for the past few weeks. Thank goodness the mumps have by-passed me so far. Gosh, it’s really hot and dry, but we do have peas, corn and onions up in the garden and yesterday a mama hen came up with five baby chicks. They are cute but I am plumb scared to death of a mama hen. I remember one time that Arthur sent Evie and me for some geese he bought. We got home with them O.K. but when we turned them out they ran us both 'from the barn to the front door, with Evie yelling( “wait for me mamma!” You know I have always said the Rappahannock News was like a letter from home and only today Julia Settle said she was giving me all the socials she could because the Settles do not write much and by reading' the paper they keep in touch. That goes for my brother and sister also. Hope they read this. From Miss Ivy Bruce comes this closing word: :■ Count that day lost, whose low, descending sun Views from thy hand no worthy action done. So, until next week, F^lks, Stay happy, E. B. M.

May 2 Deadline For Wool Payment Growers who sold wool during ended March 31. are% reminded die 1959 marketing season which that Monday, May 2 is the final date for filing applications for payment under the national wool program. H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of •the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee, said that many applications have already been-filed but he believed that some wool and lambs sold have not been reported. Early filing of applications is desirable, he explained, because information on the applications is needed for computing the average price received by growers. This is needed in computing the payment rates for shorn wool and unshorn lambs. Applications bein^ tiled at this time must show sales during the period between April 1, 1959 and March 31, 1960. For a sale to have been completed during that period, title must have been passed to the buver. the wool must have been delivered, and sales slips to determine the net sales proceeds must be available. 1'nder the wool program, payments are made to growers as an incentive to increase wool production. The payment rate is the percentage necessary to bring the national average price received by growers up to the incentive level of 63 cents a pound. Under this system, the grower who receives rhe highest price for his wool also receives the largest incentive payment. THE SPIRIT OF AMERICAN BEAUTY IN THIRD DIMENSION BEAUTY Extraordinary artistry!

From the bus we transferred to a ferry which took us to the Statue of Liberty. Due to lack of time, the group went only to Miss Liberty’s feet which was 10 floors up! Then back to the bus and to the United Nation’s building where the group was taken on a glided tour of the building and into some of the chambers. Saturday night we walked to the International Club for dining, dancing and a floor show. At 11 o’clock Sunday morning we took a subway to the Empire State Building.

The interviewers are primarily concerned with accounting for the blue household questionnaires which were left at every fourth household during the first stage of the census which started April 1. A small number of persons have failed to mail this report form to the Census Bureau’s district office. Also, some of the report forms which have been received have not been completely filled out. The “clean up” interviewers will make personal visits to the households from which report forms have not been received and obtain the answers to the Census questions. They will also seek, by telephone and personal visits, the answers to questions left blank or incorrectly answered in the report forms already sent to the Census office. Northern Virginia District 4-H Contest 4-H Home Economics Demonstration Contests were held April 23 at Madison, at which time contestants gave demonstrations on some phase of a project she was carrying.

A Style Dress Revue with participants from 15 counties was also a high-light of the event. Girls over 14 years of age from 19 counties in Northern Virginia took part in ten contests. The two girls placing first in each event will represent the district in state contests during the 4-H Short Course at VPI in June. They will compete with winners from five other Extension districts in the state. Judy Kay Lillard of Flint Hill received a white award in a bread demonstration.
