' Historical Society Meeting Set For Organization December 14th Next Monday night at 8:00 p.m. a number of people will gather at the Court House for the expressed purpose of form ing a county Historical Society. The success or failure of this worthy project will not depend on the number of people attending, but rather on the spirit of cooperation by all our people in searching out and preserving our heritage. This is a project which will test the memory, and will require the help of hundreds of people over the next several years. The noted Virginia historian Mr. David A. Williams, professor of history at the Uni versity of Virginia, will be the principal speaker at the founding meeting Mr. Williams received his doctorate from Northwestern, taught at Queens College, and has been at the U. of Va. for 7 years. He is working on a new book on the 18th century Virginia. Well quali fied and a dynamic speaker, Mr. Williams will no doubt point us in the right direct ion on this important historic project. Therewill be no charge. Every state in the union and hundreds of counties and cities have thriving Historical Societies. It is to these grass root groups that America owes so much for the preservation of our early culture, but more, it is, to them a debt of gratitude is due for keeping alive a healthy interest in our past and the people and things which made it. Can we do less here in Rappahannock, so rich in history, than say a comparatively new county in Wisconsin or South Dakota? What does a Historical Society really do? According to the National Trust Publications, it does many and Varied things depending on location, people and circumstances. However, most Societies do these things. It collects and protects the written materials of its area - official documents, records, letters, news papers, journals, reports, bills, pictures and any materials reflecting the life of the people. It seeks to recon struct types of life of the community, showing how our ancestors overcame the wilderness, tamed the land, built up plantations, established churches and schools, organized commerce and built towns It revives interest in the antiquities of the area. Old homes become more important, and more valuable because of this. It revitalizes people into greater appreciation and desire to restore what is of historic interest. It helps the Continued on page 2 Sweet Project The Junior Class of Rap pahannock County High School have a sweet project! They are offering delicious candy in attractive, boxes for sale.

Let's Have An Old Fashioned Christmas *Tis the season to be jolly." But then there are minority opinions on everything. Plentj of folks are complaining that Christmas isn’t what it used to be. They say stacks of Christmas cards, frantic lastminute shopping, "Amahl and the Night Visitors" on TV, and "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" on the stereo don’t make a Christmas. "We’ve got to get back to the old-fashioned Christmas," they cry. But we'd better not go bad too far. To put it bluntly, the Puritans were against Christmas. They labeled it a "wonton Bacchanalian feast" and spent their first Christmas on these shores pointedly re jecting Joy and doing carpentry. On the second Christmas several "lusty young men" who were found “pitching ye barr, playing at stoole-ball and such like sports" in the public streets caught what-for from Governor Bradford, in person. So the oldest of old-fashioned American Christmases will nardly do for a precedent to be followed in I960. By IW7, however, Christmas had evolved to the point that an Episcopalian bishop was complaining, “The devil has stolen from us . , . Christmas, the day of our spiritual redemption and converted it into a day of worldly festivity, shooting and swearing.* And by 1876, The Youth's Companion, a popular magazine erf the time, was lamenting the passing of the oldfashioned English Christmas: *We in America have received many, if not most, of jr Christmas custpms from ‘merrie pirentj country, *merr1 land'; Out *in % n g 1 d n d Christmas is no longer the day of games and fine old traditional ceremonies it once was. It is rarely that the yule log is burned nowadays . . . and whereas the Christmas game, in the times of good Queen Bess, lasted for more than a month, a week is all the modern, money-making English can devote to it." Could it be then that this perennial dissatisfaction with present customs and longing for "the old-fashioned Christmas" merely shows the power of this season to evoke nostalgic memories of happy childhood, bygone pleasures, and the joys of Christmases past. . . the exchange of greetings, the singing of carols, the tree, mistletoe, the festive meal, and the outdoor fun? One last dip into the yellowed, crumbling pages of The Youth's Companion gives an even better reason to wish for a simple celebration of Christmas. "It is right for us to derive all the innocent pleasure possible from the happy season, not forgetting, the while, how solemn and glorious is the event which we thus Joyously, commemorate, with its beautiful lesson of 'Love to our fellow man'."

Wool Growers Urged To Keep Records Wool growers-particularly those who market their lambs In the fall-were reminded today about the importance of keeping adequate records of their sales so that they will be able to make proper applications for payment under the wool incentive program. According to H. S. Barksdale Chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee, the sales record for lambs sold should include the name of the buye$ his signature, and the number and liveweight of lambs sol<J plus the description “unshorn Lamb payments are made only on lambs that have never been shorn, to discoiirage unusual shearing of lambs before selling. The Chairman also reminded growers that current market ings of wool and lambs through Dec. 31, 1964, will qualify for incentive payments under the wool program for the 1964 marketing year. Beginning with 1964, the marketing year is the calendar year. Growers are urged to file their applications for payment supported by the required sales documents, with their ASCS County Office as soon as possible after their fall sales are completed. While applications for payments on 1964 marketings may be filed no later than the end of January 1965, an application may be submitted at any time between now and then. Mr. Barksdale said that lamb feeders particularly should keep accurate records which will establish the length of time they have owned lambs on which they apply for payment. Lamb payments are made only on lambs which a producer has owned for 30 days or more, and the amount of payment is based on weight gain of the lambs during the seller’s ownership. expert in anything, though experts we will need. A dozen active committees will be proposed to cover most of the research to be done. Each one can choose the one they like best. Officers will be elected and nominal dues voted on, and everyone joining will become a charter member. This is not to be a V.I.P. society. Let us come to the Court House Monday night and in a spirit of fellow ship restore the good of the past, and work together to make Rappahannock worthy of its illustrous ancestors who; first saw and appreciated its incomparable beauty.

December Traffic Dangers Noted “Year in and year out, December is a dangerous traffic month, with more people killed throughout the nation on Christmas Eve than on any other day of the year," said Colonel C. W. Woodson, Jr., Superintendent of State Police and Chairman of theGovernors Highway Safety Committee, as Virginia fatalities continued to mount and approached the all-time high erf 1,100 killed in 1941. He gave last December’s score for Virginia as 85 killed and 3,547 injured, with a total of 11,208 reported crashes. Christmas week alone saw 24 deaths. Asked the reasons for December’s high mortality rate. Colonel Woodson stated there is without doubt more drinking in December than any other month. December has more hours of darkness, more vehicular and more pedestrian traffic, and everyone is too preoccupied with holiday thoughts to think of safety. Here, he noted that in 36.0 percent of December’s fatal crashes last year a driver involved was known to have been drinking and that this percentage would certainly be considerably higher were all facts known in all cases. In addition, 74.7 percent of the month's fatal crashes occurred in darkness and dusk, as against the yearly average of 58.6 percent. "It is difficult indeed, I know too crowd the unpleasant thoughts of the traffic menace into the happiness of Christmas,’’ he said, "but if we consider the many homes to which December brings tragedy and realize that any of our 6 can be one of them, it becomes well worth while.” USE CHRISTMAS SEALS Fight Tuberculosis and other Respiratory Diseases ««_ & 1004 (h-tinga dmt (Sjmttral |Jarlar$ H.

Cooit Club Will Build Pond The ring of axes and buzzing of saws shattered the quiet of a glen on the Aubrey Curtis farm near Amissville last week and members of the Rappahannock Coon Club with head quarters at Amissville began work on a large pond to be used for club activities. The pond, in a natural setting with beautiful scenery, will be 350 feet by 250 feet, and has been surveyed by the Soil Conservation Department. Labor is volunteer and donations have been made to take care of the excavating. Coon hound water races are becoming an ever increasingly popular sport over this country and a pond or lake is the first necessary item for them. Hound owners bring their dogs from miles around to compete in the races. Meetings of the Rappahannock Coon Club are open to the public and are held at Amissville Fire Hall the first Tuesday of each month. Both men and women are eligible to join. New officers elected for the club are B. A. Cooke, president; Braxton James, vicepresident; John Hitt, secretary and Ralph Settle, treasurer.

B. Christinas Seal Campaign Reaches Halfway Mark in Goal The staff advised that Information from the Virginia State Department of Health shows that of the 2,252 Virginians who were reported by their physicians as having tuberculosis in 1963, 2,007 were diagnosed as having the active disease. This is an increase of 4.4% over 1962 or a rate of 47.4% per 100,000 who found they had TB for the first time in 1963. Young people have TB, too, according to the Health Department Records bee a u s e 57%, of all the newly reported cases occurred among Virginians under 45 years of age. More men have TB also, because nearly two-thirds of all newly reported cases occurred among men. It costs the State of Virginia and citizens approximately $16 per second for the TB cases under supervision. Unlikely tuberculosis, cases of noncommunicable longterm respiratory diseases are not legally reportable on diag nosis by physicians to health department. No matter how serious these disease may be individually, or how many people suffer with them, the major statistics available are those taken from death certificates and compiled by the Bureau of Vital Statistics of the Virginia State Department of Health. Deaths, excluding tuberculosis, totaled 3,753 in 1963 from respiratory diseases. Deaths are not representative of the number of cases. For each death, hundreds of cases suffer with their effort to breathe. In Virginia, 1,421 people died of penumonLa. This one widely fatal killer responds well to pencillin and other drugs. Death from penumonia strikes hardest at the 15 to 40 year old group. It is the forth leading cause of death in young children. Over 200,000 Virginians are estimated to have asthma and hay fever. And over 53,000 are estimated to have chronic bronchitis. Bronchitis is a disease of neglect. It is an inflamation of the lining of bronchial tubes causing chronic coughing and spitting. Beginning usually at middle age, it grows progressively worse unless treated. Major contributing factors ace,; cigarette smoking and alt pollution. • No estimates are given on prevalence of emphysema. But for every emphysema death three are hundreds of Virginians disabled by this disease in their earning years.lt has increased 400% in the last ten years. Emphysema brings illness, job loss and disability to more and more men over 40 and over. Early chrnoic cough and shortness of breath must be headed if headway is to be made against this disease. Exact causes of emphysema are not known but there is a significant link between empnysema, cigarette smoking and air pollution. These are the problems and the fact which face the board of Tuberculosis and Health Association of Northern Virginia and it is beacuse of these problems that they established speakers' bureaus in the spring to alert citizens to the warnings of shortness of breath and chronic cough. With the assistance of the news media, a year-round program is carried out to inform people and encourage them to get yearly check-ups so that tuber culosis and other respiratory diseases may be found in early stages when remedial action can be taken. From The ) . Home Agent’si Pen By Doris Daugherty A good gift does not nece&^ sarily have to be “store bought?.' We usually think of a good gift as being one that is useful to the recipient, perhaps something^ he. may or may not buy for himself. Gifts should be carriers of good wishes and not just a fulfillment of an established custom. Some of the best gifts in the world have little money value. Making a gift can be fun if there is plenty of time. Be resourceful in trying out dif— ferent ideas’ for different people. Give some thought to the individual’s occupation personality, age, where he lives, and so on. Gifts from the hand as well- as from the heart are always cherished, but they can be useful as well as pretty. Many farm people fail to realize that they do not have to spend weary hours shopping for gifts but can find very suitable ones around their farmstead or in their rag bag. Gifts for a Child Stick horses made from a broom stick. Head can be made from an old felt hat or heavy material. Stuffed toys--socic dolls, animals. Doll Furniture. A cute little cradle may be made frpryp(£n oaj mpa\ .^pjc split lengthwise. Bibs, play aprons, etc. Try your textile painting skill in decorating t-shirts and other articles of clothing. Rag book made from a solid piece of material. Stitch together like pages in a book. Paste favorite pictures or textile paint animals on each sheet. Nest of cans for tiny tots. Paint tin cans that will fit inside of each other. Bean bags are fun to make and even grouwnups like to play with them. They may be made in shape of animals, clowns, etc. Gifts for a person who travels Shoe bags made from gingham or plastic. If you like tc crochet and knit, crochet or knitted bags are nice. Sewing kits made from old felt hats or a small piece of lather. Attach various threads, needles, pins, snaps, and a small pair of scissors. Individual cases for flowers, underwear, and stockings made from plastic and bound with tape. Soft scuffs made from felt, terry cloth, and soft leather. for one who liken rn conk Aprons of all kinds, make a husband and wife set. Decorate with textile paints or bands of brightly colored tape. Recipe box--'-decorate a file box for recipe’s. A cigar, soap or heavy type boxes are good, A cook book jacket made from oil cloth or plastic will help to keep the cook book clean. Herbbouquets r If you grow herbs these are a lot of fun to make. Take cheese cloth squares and tie up dried herbs just enough for a pert of soup or admixture of salad dressing A knifejrack or a rack to hold ’ other utensils. Take a square of peg board and finish with molding for hanging over a stove or near a cabinet. Gifts for the shut-in. A potted plant - you can make or de corate the container. Take a small loaf bread pan and paint it. A tray cloth with a mansized bib. A scrapbook of poems. A lap board made from plywood. A book rest. A bird feeder for outside the window. Bed socks and bed jackets. Gifts for aJcity family. Nuts, cornmeal, plum pudding, preserves, and various foods, attractively packaged. Large sprays of greens ( do send before Christmas) orpine cones for decorating. A load of wood for the fireplace or a bundle of kindling if there is a fireplace. Why not start a family gift making project? Even the tiny tots can join in the fun and the gifts are something special. Here is a cranberry salad recipe you may enjoy during the holiday season. It is go5d for g iving your family and friends a change from the usual cranberry sauce. 2 tbsp. gelatin 1/4 cup cold water 4 cups cranberries 2 cups water 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 cup Tokay grapes seeded and quarted 1 cup diced canned pineapple 1/2 cup broken walnuts or pecans 1/.4 cup diced celery Combineriithe.ctanbertrtee ih> the 2 cups of water and cook' gently until skin breaks.

Captain William Tucker, hbme on leave from Travis Air Force Base in California, was the hunter from the farthereet; Mrs. Jane Hare came up from Lynch burg. The Culpeper County contingent consisted of Oliver Durant, Elzy Brown and three little Browns, andtylary Jamieson. The rest of the hunters were of Rappahannock County: Masters Jim Bill Fletcher and Jack DeBergh, Stuart Wells (of Wysatta, Minnesota, and Sperryville), Wade H. Massie III and his son, Clifford Miller of Richmond, Brandy and Sperryville, Miss Diane Bruce, Mrs. Raymond Wire, Newbill Miller, and Nancy and Magruder Keyser. For over one hour, hounds worked hard, butunavailingly, through the Mill Hill Woods and over Graves' Bottom. Returning to the woods, they finally jumped their Red. They trailed to the Watts' farm. Here the quarry ran through the angus cattle and succeeded in fouling up his track so th; houijds were stymied. Mri W^|s pointed westward to t branch-drained fields abo the Fray house. 'There1 where HE usually runs." Oil Dodson, the huntsman, gathei ed hounds and cast in that d: rection. Within 12 minute they had the big fellow goii again. The whole field viewt him...he s at least a yai long (and as red as Can Miller’s hair!) After a brisk run along his branch bank and in and out of the adjacent wood, he took himself into the Fray barn yard, fouled up his track a second time and completely confused hounds. This “HE" is making a reputation for himself in Madison County. Lawton Blankenbaker Shooting Match SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12 Hampton Inn & Service Station WASHINGTON, VA.

Culpeper, Va. said about him, “This big fellow outfoxes the hounds every time. We can’t figure him. This interesting, though brief hunt was followed by a breakfast at the Blankenbakers which was also interesting, but not brief in any respect. Many foxhunters who had been following in cars Joined the mounted hunters. When the hungry line viewed the buffet, oh’s and ah’s swelled in a chorus. Twenty three different dishes displayed themselves before us on the generous sideboard; one better than the next, and all specialties of the countryside. One overheard, “Try the salsify and souse.* Oh, but look at that ham and blackeyed peas,” "I’m for turkey and marshmallowed yams.” And Oliver Durant said, Tm for everything.” 1 So it went on and on and on, each dish done to perfection and offered with the unequalled hospitality and good spirits of the Blankenbakers.

Soc. Security Notes How many keys do you have? Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, social security district manager in Winchester, Va., suggests that you have one besides the car key, the house key, the office7 or store key, boat trailer key, lock box key, etc. ■The key I’m talking about may well be the most valuable key in your possession,* says Mrs. Daly. “Although it doesn’t have the shape of most keys, the little card showing your name and nine numbers — your social security card — is really a key," she added with the following basis for that remark. Your social security card is the key that identifies your earnings record on which money will be due for retirement pay to you and your family, or for disability payments to you and your family, or for survivors payments to your family at your death. Failure to show your card to each new employer you have, or writing your number incorrectly on your self-employment tax return, is taking a chance on reducing or even losing the income protection you are paying for. Indifference as to what is being credited to your social security earnings record is also a danger to your own or your family’s ability to collect the right amount at the right time at some future date. •If you've lost your card, ask your social security office for a replacement; if you haven’t checked on your social security record in several years, ask your social security office for a special post card for that purpose," Mrs. Daly urged.
