Phone Company Representatives And Area I Subscribers Hold Rate-Service Hearing A hearing on telephone rates and service was held Monday, March 11 at Reynolds Baptist Church, Spcrryville with representatives of Chesapeake &! Potomac and Virginia Telephone & Telegraph Companies and many interested citizens representing business, government, churches, civic and Cultural organizations, Extension Service, etc. This meeting was the outcome of a resolutionjnade last year by the Rappahanrjiock Farm Bureau, which felt .that the county was divided and progress hampered by the lack of a county wide exchange free of toll charges. Mr. Harry Lindsey of Culpeper spoke for the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephqne Company while Mr. Joe B. Compton, Front Royal and Mr. Garnett of Charlottesville acter in behalf of Virginia Telephone and Telegraph. Both of these companies service Rappahannock County. Gen. Dariielj Noce, President of Rappahannock jFarm Bureau acted as chairman of the hearing, assister by Mr. C. E. Johnson, Jr. The major jcomplaint laid before the utility! companies was the fact that calk could not be made over the entire county without entailing a toll charge. While flint Hill, Spcrryville and Washington are connected, die Amiss ville and Boston area art on another exchange. Also pointed out was the fact that we pay about $3.50 per month rental and can call fewer than 600 phones, while in part of Rappahannock and Culpeper have access to 3,600 phones with an average rental of $3.75 a month. According to statistics quoted by Mr. Lindsey, such a small per cent of customers were making toll calls into Culpeper, etc. that he did not feel that it was fair to the majority of users to raise the raise the rates of all to accommodate a few. However, all representatives said they did not in the least consider the matter closed and that a detailed study and survey would be made of the situation by their firms. Besides the fact that all of the county would like to be on an exchange that would connect, the whole area, some of Sperryville would like to have access to Culpeper toll free, while another portion would perfer Luray. flint Hill residents would like to have a toll free connection with Front Royal while Amissville which is on the Culpeper exchange is fairly satisfied, some subscribers would prefer a toll free exchange with Warrenton.

In this position, I served for twenty years when you elected me to the Superintendency of Warren and Rappahannock Counties, and in this capacity I have had the pleasure of serving sixteen years. Whatever measure of success I have had in public school work has been due largely to the support I have received from all the people with whom I have worked, and I am grateful especially for the help and interest shown by the School Boards; my failures are my own. Recently I have had to choose between continuing in public school employment or accepting employment in another type of educational work. After careful consideration I have chosen the latter:Only future years can evaluate the wisdom of this choice. Naturally, I do not know who will suceed me as your Executive Officer, but I can say that 'I know he will have the same help and support you have given me, and with this, he can serve in the best interests of the public school system of these two Counties. I shall always recall with pleasure my association with you, and I express confidence in your continued dedication toward achieving the best educational advantages possible for the children of Continued on page five Flint Hill Firemen Honored At Banquet The Flint Hill Ladies Auxiliary to the Fire Company served a delightful dinner to the firemen and visitors on Tuesday evening, March 14.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING {> At' Washington, Rappahannock County, Virginia TELEPHONE: WASHINGTON 2851 BASIL C. BURKE, JR. Owner MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM. Managing Editor Entered as Second Claw Mail at the Pont Office at Waahington, Va. SUBSCRIPTION (in advance).-..$2,60 PER YEAR 1 irginia’s Art By Leslie Cheek, Jr. Director, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts The nationally known director of die State Museumdescribes die gnat masterpiece* of art in die Museum's collection*—die otltoral heritage of all Virginians. This is one of a aeries of articles which will • appear each week during die Virginia Museum's 25th Birthday year. A 17th Century Party PARTY BT JAN MOLENAER One of the excitements of studying paintings is the glimpse of the daily life of other times and other places 30 often to be found in them. The Dutch 17th Century painters were particularly adept at this phase of painting, frequently preferring a rather coarse, peasant kind of subject for their canvases. But many of them also painted intimate scenes from richer households. The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts’ “A Musical Patty," the gift of Wilkins C. William?, is such a painting, and its painter Jan Miense Molenaer (ca. 16-01668), has faithfully recorded the luxuries of the household. CJuite clearly tne nosts ana me guests have put on their best clothes for the party. The servants, too, are well dressed for this special occasion. Even the animals have been well groomed, and how exotic it is to have monkeys included with the family pets. The garden has been carefully trimmed, the flowers in the urns have been properly staked, and the marble paving, so rare in a land of no stone, has been carefully scrubbed. Movement and animation were given the painting by the activity of, the servants and by the rather sly inclusion of the peasants fight^ ing at the extreme deft edge of the picture. The contrast between the elegance of the main group and the peasants against the old farmhouse points up the earthiness of the fortunes vvluch made this remarkable gathering possible; Jan Micnse Molenaer was one of the large group of painters who worked in Haarlem in 17th Century. He came under many influences during his life..the Italianate influence carried back to Holland by such painters as Terbrugghen, the influence of Hals under whom Molenaer’s wife had studied, the gusto and robustness of life of such painters as van Ostade and Brouwer, and finally the influence of Rembrandt. In fact after 1650 Molenaer’s style became so Rembrandtesque that his later paintings were sometimes thought to be by another Molenaer. But the Museum’s “Musical Party” in in his earlier manner, full of clear color and the Italianate sense of order. By these means he left us an immensely spirited record of what must have been a most enjoyable afternoon. Letter To The Editor Sperryville, Va. March 14, 1961 The Editor, Rappahannock News Washington, Ya. Dear Sir: Last evening my door bell rang. When I opened the door I was greeted by a pleasant voice saying that he was “begging for the rescue squad.” Of course I invited rim in. I gave hiim a check and thanked him for the important and very valuable service he and his colleagues art rendering to us in Rappahannock County. But why should we expect, or even permit, these young men to go from door to door begging us to protect ourselves? It would seem to make more sense if we went to their homes and asked them to accept our mone^ xto cover the necessary cost of equipment. They are doing their share when, they give their time, night and day, when any one of us may be in trouble and need their help. We should do our part by generously supporting hem. Yours truly, S. E. Hening ■ ( Ckester Gao News Mr. and Mrs. Buster Mills, and Mrs. Reel of Front Royal and Miss Pauline Rutherford spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Galen Reel in prange. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Elphiostone of Washington, D. C. Spent the weekend with Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Williams. Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Williams were Monday night visitor^ of Mr. and Mrs. Homer Fox and family near Front Royal. Miss Marlene Wines returned home Sunday after being, a patient in University of Virginia Hospital for several w.eeks Mr. and Mrs. Thomas L/“ake and daughter Terry were visitors Saturday of Mr. Leake’s parents in Sperryville. Alcohol Study A study on alcohol will be held by the Commission on Missions of the Rappahannock Methodist Charge with the Methodist Youth Fellowship, the Woman’s Society of Christian Service arid other church groups participating. The study book, “Stumbling Blo|ck”, will be used and the sessions will be led by Rev. William A. Jester, minister of Rappahannock Charge. This study is being held in cooperation with the General Board of Missions and Virginia Methodist Conference, which is asking every charge to hold a study on alcohol. Tne free-will offering taken each night will be sent to the Virginia Methodist Conference Board of Christian Soofal Concerns, which will in turn use the offerings in its support of the Virginia Church Temperance Council. The purpose for the study is not to tell anyone that they should or should not drink alcoholic beverages, but to gain a better understanding of what alcohol is and does, and how a Christian must take on the responsibility of dealing with the problems, dangers and harmful effects of the increasing use of alcohol. The movie film, “Alcohol and the Human Body,” will be shown at the first study session, held at Flint Hill Methodist Church on Wednesday, March 22, 7:30 p.m. Sperryville Methodist Church will hos the second session Wednesday, March 29 at 7:30 p.m. The film, “Alcoholism” will be viewed. Wednesday, April 5 at 7:30 p.m., the third session of study will be held at Willis Chapel Methodist Church, Huntly, where the film “Problem Drinkers”, will be seen. The fourth session will be held at Washington Methodist Church Wednesday, April 12 at 7:30 p.m. and will include the motion picture, “Far From Alone,” which shows how a football star is confronted with alcohol. Every interested person is invited to attend each session. Baptist Missionary .. Group Busy The week of March 6-10 was a full one for the women of Washington Baptist Church. It was the State Week of Prayer for Home Missions and three services were held at the church. One followed ■ the regular meeting of the Missionary Society which is held the first Tuesday of the month. “The Dreamer Cometh , a story of the Foreign Missionary, Luther Rice, was studied and ways and means of “Safeguarding Our Youth” were brought to < the attention of the roup. It was stated that the Annie Armstrong Offering goal for 1961 is $2,470,000. Members of the Society were asked to read carefully an article written by Mrs. R. L. Mathis, President of the Womans Missionary Union, SBC. The article, “Prayer is A Power,” is built around the scripture, “The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects”—James 5:16. In concluding, Mrs. Mathis asks the question, “Will it be a full Week of Prayer in your church? Will you be a vital part of it? Will it be the same fervent prayer? Will it? If you can answer YES_...then the outcome will be “answered prayer.” Your church will be awakened—the offering will go beyond the goal— and Christianity will have a new day in America.” $2,470,000 is a lot of money, but members felt that the Southern Baptist Convention would be able to count on that money in planning their work for 1961. Funds will be allocated in many mission fields. A number of foreign countries will share, also the deaf, the blind, the young, the old, the migrant worker, the Jews, and young students. It was pointed out that it took courage to plan such a program, and that it would take courage to carry it out. Those giving their time and thought to the meetings were Mrs. B. R. Cox, Mrs. W. C. Campbell, Mrs. J. Frank Jones, and Mrs. Gilbert Updike.

tapooopooaoppOPOOOPOQOtMj Rapp - Chats : I By W. H. LYNE \ | County Agent \ joooooooopoooooooooooogS Congratulation* to Rappahannock Newst I, for one, think you did a fine job with the special 4-H issue. Everything was as it should be; most of the clubs had reports, many advertisers used 4-H emblems and activities, etc. * • * • Mrs. William Cameron called last Friday to say she had flu and thus couldn’t help with the 4->H Supper. Thanks, Mrs. Cameron, twas especially nice of you to let us know. We all wish you a speedy recovery. Incidentally the Cameron’s son, Billy, is possessor of that bright smiling face on the double page ad in last week’s News. A bit premature at this writing, but by the time this is published, our 1961 4-H Supper will be history.....So thanks again for your help and attendance! • • • • Need a bull? See elsewhere in this paper an article on the ROP bull sale to be held at Culpeper Enterprises beginning at Noon, March 20th. While on the subject of bulls, a number of good-uns have already been bought by Rappahannock cowmen: Jim Yates, 2 Angus; Jessamine Hill Farm, 3 Angus; also Bub Gore, Gordon Hildrup, Johnny Woodward have bought Angus. Thomas Williams, they say, got a cracking good Shorthorn at the Winchester Sale; Woody Coughlin and Jock Brown have purchased nice Herefords. Hear Jim Yates and Woody ..Coughlin are offering their mature herd sires for sale. Mightjlo,well to check them over. Also Mr. Vierling at Flint Hill has a few young ' Hereford bulls for sale. Call Mr. Hunter, telephone 2691. • • • • The 1960 BCIA annual report has been received. All herd numbers are not known, so I can’t comment on all our herd’s records. Any way Piedmont, The Oaks, Red Oak Farm, Hidden Valley, Greystone Farm, Lucio Kilby and Mr. Vierling have their herds entered. Hear Ned Jones, Gen. .Noce, Allen Stokes and possibly Donald Read will enroll their herds rhis vear; Perry Duncan his in 1962. Ned Johnson’s 78 calves by four different bulls had an average adjusted daily gain of 2.04 pounds and an average index of 120. Kilby’s herd did 1.97 lbs. per day and indexed 119. Looks like a race is on or to say the least, they’re trying the “Pants Trick.” Congratulations men! • • • • Incidentally, from the goings on at the Annual BCIA meeting held recently at Culpeper, in a ‘little or no time’ heifer sales and feeder calf sales will be started with calves having desirable Records of -Pref romance. • • • • So far, in meeting with Rappahannock Sheepmen, the biggest cause of our lambs being bom out of season is the result of leaving the rams with flocks year round. Arthur Miller couldn’t get away from the post office for our meeting with the Washington group so was nice enough to come by the office a few days later. In 1957-58 he’d left his ram with the flock, resulting in two lamb crops in ,1958. This usually knocks the day lights out of profits from a flock and it did for Arthur in 1959. Mrs. John Williams reported at the Forest Grove meeting they breed their ewes to start lambing in November. In 1959 the Williams sold 39 lambs of which 51% graded prime. All but five were marketed before July 1 (or before hot weather) averaged 87-100 pounds and brought from $25.00 to $28.10 per head! That’s the way to make a profit and stay in business. Congratulations M r s. Williams! All lambs should be on creep now. Our better shepherds, at least those making the most profit, fed stock feed, cracked yellow com or whole shelled corn. The whole shelled corn being used after lambs have been on creep for a week or two and the change being made very' gradually.. Ewes suckling lambs should get 1% pounds 16% dairy feed plus 3-5 pounds good leafy legume hay daily. Another good grain ration for ewes consists of equal parts by measure of corn, oats and brain allowing 1 Vi pounds per ewe per day. More to follow about how our more successful shepherds are getting the job done. • • • • Attention Members Rappahannock Angus Feeder Calf Sale: The Ohio Cattle Feeders Association is planning their annual summer tour to Virginia this year! Three bus loads of at least 100 cattle feeders will pass through Rappahannock on Route 522 on August 19th. At the Annual State Feeder Calf Sale meeting held recently at Natural Bridge, Rodes Brown and Jim Yates were asked if Rappahannock Angus Breeders could give the Ohioans lunch; whether a glib tongued Rappaharmockan could board each of the three buses at the county line and give interesting facts about our county, our cattle, etc.? Several herd owners could have their calves, cows and herd sires in pastures adjacent to 522 for viewing by the Ohioans. This could be a very profitable^ promotional stunt. Might cost $125-$150. Think it over-talk it over with Rodes and Jim. • * * • Firemen at Flint Hill and Amissville turned out to be very interested in our first talks and movie on County Planning.. Certainly they indicated belief in the “need of something to be done.” Also Rappahannock Lions Club and Soerryville Fire Department have asked the same program to be discussed at their May meeting. Depending upon interest exhibited by local citizens, a series of discussion meetings can be arranged. If County Planning is needed, what about discussions on our Natural Resources or on Development and Building Codes, etc. Our Board of Supervisors is aware of the need for Planning, so is the Rappahannock Farm Bureau but if I judge these bodys correctly.none wants to write a plan without having expressions from our people nor without giving the matter thorough and sound thought! Amen. Woodville News Miss Mattie Rector Miss Jane Hitt and J. C. Bernie of Washington D. C. spent the weekend with Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Hitt. Sunday dinner guests were George W.

'Officiate of the Bolling Air Force Base Officers Club today released a progress report which outlined steps taken over the past year in the development, of the flab’s 1,977 acre recreation area near Warrenton, Virginia. Since formally taking title to the area, which has been known locally as the Clark Ranch, last October, the Club has built three dams and stocked (the resulting lakes with various! forms of game fish. Hie dams were constructed by the Culpeper firm of Moore, Kelley and Reddish. An 18-hole golf course, also constructed by local area contracting firms, is near completion, and present plans calls for the formal opening of the couirse on May 30, 1961. In other developments, officials announced that most grading and land improvements has been completed and it is anticipated that construction work ion various recreation area buildjings will begin early next year. Last summer aj boys and girls summer camp was conducted at the recreation area, and a similar but somewhat larger version of the camp will be open in 1961. The Club also maintains a stable of over fifty ridin(g horses at the recreation area. Colonel Edwin B. Miller, Commander of Bolling Air Force Base, stated that the improvements carried out by local contracting firms and the goods and services purchased through local firms resulted in a total expenditure of approximately $401,000 in the Warrenton-Culpeper economy “It is our intention,” Colonel Miller said, “to continue to deal as much as possible; with local area business firms in the construction of =this facility. We alo intend to continue our practice of employing mostly local citizens at the recreation area. Since we feel that we are now members Jof idle local community, we shall continue to support local firms in every Way possible.” > The Club, an activity financed solely by its members, plans a 10year development program at the recreation area.

EXTRA - EXTRA By Ed Was talking to Brue Wood last week when he asked me if I was coming to the Firemens Banquet at Flint Hill. 1 told him I had been invited and expected to go. Brue said he thought they would have a little gravy or something to eat. Well they really did have gravy and all the trimmin’s, like fried chicken and old Virginia ham. The food was delicious and everyone seemed to enjoy the evening. • • • • Realizing that fire wardens are usually invited to firemens banquets, I was a little disturbed until the presence of our county warden was announced. Thought for' a while we must be having a March snow storm in west Rappahannock, for I knew that was the only thing that would keep Raymond Johnson on Red Oak Mt. when a banquet was going on. • * * * Signs of spring are everywhere: Monday wild geese were seen going north and “Mr.„Charlie” was out fertilizing his lawn. Jumping ropes, baseballs and bats are becoming standard equipment with the young folks; the peach and apple buds are swelling and the forsythia is bursting out all over. The ladies are talking spring bonnets; we’ve been playing badmin ton and Ihave sore muscles. • • • * Mr. Dewey Harris, our paper company salesman, who lives in Richmond, said Monday that the forsythia there has reached its peak and is beginning to shatter. He had to mow his lawn last weekend. “In the spring, a young man’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love” and an old womans to spring housecleaning and gardening. The warm sunny days make me want to wash off the ink and dig in the soil. Like the wild geese, the Wade H. Massie, Jr. family were seen going north too. Tom drove 600 miles Monday on their return trip from Florida. There’s no place like home_especially if it is in Rappahannock. * •. * • With spring comes the frequent trips to your favorite fishing hole, but a cruel blow has been dealt to many local fishermen. All of the fish in Miller’s pond have been accidentally killed. There were some of the biggest bass you ever saw. • • • • It often shows a fine command of language to say nothing. o • SQUARE DANCE SPERRYVILLE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Friday, March 3rd, 1961 Benefit: Sperryville Vol. Fire Deptartment Music by Collis & Billy and the Va.
