Enthusiasm was high as Butch Browning got the tip-off against Midlothian’s six foot seven inch center, and hopes for a victory were good at the end of the first quarter whqn the score stood Midlothian 10 and RCHS 8. RCHS boys were not hitting with their usual accuracy and the Midlothian boys fulled steadily; ahead to a 66-34'victory.

Some artists went So far as to work in collaboration with other painters, one completing the landscape while the other added the figures which were necessary for th portrayal of the incident. It is known that van Alsloot, who died in 1628, did this, for certain of his paintings have figures by Hflndrick de Clerck. Both van Alsloot and Clerck " were Flemish painters who worked in Brussels. Denis van Alsloot was noted for his landscapes into which mythological personages or secular figures primarily in hunting pirties, were introduced. His fame was such that he was appointed, about 1599, court painter to the then Governor of the Netherlands, the Archduke Albert of Austria and (the Archduchess Isabella. In spite of his preoccupation with landscape van Alsloot created a delightfully pastoral “Flight into Egypt” in this canvas. The sense of peace after the escape from the vengeftce of Herod is strongly communicated to the spector: by the calm wooded landscape with its glimpses of a village beyond the lake and by the figures themselves, not only those of the central group but*also those more distant ones who animate the middle distance. The teligious needs of the theme Continuedman page twelve . Results Of Lamb Marketing Studies Spur Action i This week County Agent, W. H. Lyne, has been showing Rappahannock shepherds how they can increase receipts from market iambs as much as 50% at little or no extra cost. Lyne says this increased income can primarily be had through more orderly marketing and breeding. A study of 1178 lambs marketed by Rappahannock producers in 1959 shows 53% were sold too light to make the top slaughter grades while 60% were marketed during months when prices were lowest. While Lync arranged six one hour discussions in three communities to give details on changes that would oring m more lamo dollars, he will be happy to discuss lamb production and marketing individually with producers at the County Agent's office, or on the larm. For sure, by changing breeding dates and time of marketing, lamo profits can be increased $15,000 per year. This amount, Lyne concludes, would pay the county’s portion of his salary for ten years. While prices received by each producer were not revealed, there was an $8.09 spread in average value per lamb between the high and low income flocks represented in the lirst community meeting.

Adjustment On Feed Grain Production Farmers in Rappahannock County who may be interested in a possible feed grain production adjustment program in 1961 are urged to call at the County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Office, according to H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the ASC county committee. The request is made to farmers at this time because farm feed grain and other crop acreage information will be needed for any feed grain program that may be authorized for the coming crop raison. Farmers who supply feed gram and other acreage figures at this time will not be obligated to participate in a feed grain program if one becomes available, but will be eligible to participate. However, Mr. Barksdale points out that a program can be quickly put into operation Jf tthe necessary farm acreage information is on file at the county office. He asks farmers cooperation in providing information that will be needed before a program can be put in effect. Interested farmers are asked to bring to the county ASC office their records of the acreage of crop land used for field corn, grain sorghums, oats, barley and other crops for the two crop years 1959 and 1960. The report should be on the basis of the acreage planted and the use made of the crop produced.

Confederate Steam Ship Rappahannock Louemma C. Moffett Part IV The last months of 1864 an early part of 1865 were trying times for die officers and crews of Confederate ships in Europe. Time was running out. The handwriting had appeared on the wall. The Confederacy would be defeated. Every day increased the burdens of those in command. t News from home_when it could get through_was all bad. Defeat of the armies_desertion of soldiers, weary of the struggle, and longing to go home. Trouble with the slaves (many were believed to have been taken by Yankee slave dalers to Cuba and sold in the slave market there. Cuba did not abolish slavery until 1886—twentyone years after it was abolished in die United States and it is known that many slaves from the South were sold there by Northern slave dealers.) The Secretary of die Confederate Navy, Stephen R. Mallory, relied heavily on Commander James on the Confederate Navy show D. Bullock and the official records that he was a most capable and dedicated officer. On July 29, 1864, he wrote to the Secretary, “I leave for the Continent tomorrow for consultation with Flag Officer Barron with reference t6 the Rappahannock' and to settle all our operations in t rance under my control.” There were a number of “oprations” under Commander Bullock’s control, and it was not going to be easy for the agent of a defeated people to deal with the French Government. And Compiander Bullock was fully aware of it. Flag Officer Barron of the Rappahannock had appealed, to Commander Bullock for help. Earlier he had written to Secretary Mallory concerning the disposition of his ship. “She is scarcely such a ship as we would be willing to keep during the war in a foreign port at heavy expense, in-order to have her as one of a naval force to be employed during peace; and there is, just now, doubt as to whether we can sell her at die price she cost us. I shall, however, before acting, take good counsel of the best head and best friend we have on this side of the Atlantic.” As had been said, he took counsel of Commander James D. Bullock. At last Flagg Officer Barron and Commander Bullock saw “we to eye” about the attitude of the French Government towards the Confederacy. On August 2, 1864, Flag Officer Barron wrote to the Secretary in Richmond, Virginia, “You can then well imagine, sir, the distress and mortification which I, in common with the officers of the ship feel at this bitter prostration of our well-founded hopes and expectations. The friendly dispositions manifested towards us in the; first months of our sojourn have taken a turn decidedly adverse since the publication of Mr. Seward’s (the Secretary of State in Lincoln’s Cabinet) diplomatic assurances that the {Empire then about to be established in Mexico would not be interfered with by the U.S. Government. By the proper parties you have been aware of the whole course of perfidious conduct towards us by the French Government.” The Diary of .Flag Officer of the Rappahannock, from 1863 to 1865, records a few bright spots even in those distressing days and Captain Barron it is evident tried to make the best of them. August 13—Grand “fete jour* for Emperor, Empress and Napoleon I; fireworks and illumination splendid. January 7—Letter from Sam, Captain Barron’s son; he will be in Calais today!!! Sunday, January 29_Barron and O’Brien called this afternoon and delivered me a letter from T. Jeff Page, dated January 25, C.S. S. Stonewall, seacoast of France: Page asks that we will not expect too much of them. He fears that the power and effect of this steamer has been too much exaggerated. “We will do our best”_No doubt of this, for he is a good officer and a high-strung Southern patriot_ none more so, and he has a fine set of young officers with him. God speed and protect them! May His blessing be upon them and crown their efforts with full success. My dear boy Sam, is one of them_God bless you, my noble boy. March 23_Letters from Sam_ All in good spirits preparing for a fight! Niagra and Sacramento. The March 23 entry in the diary of Captain S. Barron, Flag Officer of the Confederate Steam Ship Rappahannock was the last. It was not unusual for father and son both to wear the grey, but they were not always able to see each other from time to time.

Phone VA 5-8381 I The Cherubim hovering over the Holy Family represents Divine Wisdom and holds a wreath of dive leaves, symbolizing the Providence of God toward His Children. Because of their rich yield, :he Romans used the olive tree ind palm branchees as symbols of victory, and the Christians used hem to suggest the triumph oyer leath. » T Even the birds and animals inridental to the landscape have a elieious meaning. The cranes in he right comer were introduced jecause of their connotation of vigilance and loyalty. This meanng was derived from the legend ibout them that stated that at light, when the cranes were garhered in a circle, one of them was ;et on watch and hfc, to guard igainst sleep held a stone in one oot so that it would fall on the ither if he should sleep. The stage, just behind the cranes -epresented religious aspiration and liety, as described in Psalms. Thus /an Alsloot, even though his major interest was in landscape,. used joth the landscape setting and its figures to create a touching religious painting full of meaning and devotion. This painting belongs t» the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts to ivhich it was given by Mrs. Hildreth Scott Davis in memory of her lusband, George Cole Scott. *OINT-TO-POINT RACES Continued from pagt one ;r, won the Young Entry race.

Take Merit Scholarship Examinations Seven students at the Rappahannock County High School plan to take the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test H. B. Winfrey, principal, announced today. The test will be administered at the high school at 9 a.m. Saturday, March 11. All students who wish to be considered for Merit Scholarships to be awarded in 1962 must take the test at that time. i uc v^uaiuyiiig 101 u» * uu cthour examination of educational development. The test is the first step in the seventh annual competition for four-year Merit Scholarships provided by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation and by sponsoring .coprorations, foundations, associations, and individuals. CORRECTION •H. B. Winfrey and the Rappahannock News would like to correct the statement made last week which said this year was the first year a Rappahannock boys basketball team had won a district tournament. Speaking only of the consolidated county high school, the statement was correct. However in 1935 or 36 the boys team of Washington High Schhool won the district championship, losing only 2 games that year, both to Edinburg who also defeated them in the regional play off at Charlottesville. Since there .are no school records available of by gone years, it is impossible to know of these things. remember... ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT FORESf FIRES! Madison Livestock Market Madison Mills, Va.
