Variety of Letters Enclosed with Christmas Seal Contributions Specially trained volunteers and staff of the Tuberculosis and Health Association of Northern Virginia are keenly interested in 'opening* the Christmas Seal return envelopes. With the contributions come all types of letters letters commenting on how pretty the seals are, letters saying they have illness or they would give more, one requesting a companion, another saying they’ve married and want their name changed. One asked that a message be given to a kinfolk. There are people who, when they received two letters, wrote and enclosed labels from both of their letters. Some wrote of their experience with tuberculosis. Others haven’t received seals and sent a check asking for them. When a larger amount is received than normally contributed, the “opener* is particularly pleased. Out of the almost nine thousand letters received, only one has been of the ‘’critical’* variety. The letter which intrigued the openers the most was the one from a child to Santa Claus — and it travelled on a Christmas Seal instead of a Christmas Stamp. In the opening of letters have been found amounts ranging from on cent to $500. There have been milk checks, refunds and dividend checks, endorsed and forwarded as contributions — there have been postal money orders and American Express orders. Some times money is pinned clipped or stapled to a piece of paper or a letter. A few checks have come in unsigned and two have written a letter saying they are enclosing a check but failed to do so. Volunteers in four counties have completed the pasting of labels on reminders to those who haven’t answered their i Christmas Seal letters and1 volunteers are already signing1 up in the other four counties! to do their share of pasting labels after Christmas. Although the campaign closes on Christmas Day. the books are not closed .until the last of March. In comparison to the same day of last year’s campaign, three counties are lagging -- Fredericks, Shenandoah and Warren, while the others are holding their own. This week the campaign receipts total $23,834.84 for the area. For this count, the amount received totals $ . Clarke . ..$1,675.50 Fauquier.$4,325.76 Frederick .... $5,545.54 Loudoun ..$3,908.00 Page.$2,219.76 Rappahannock.$568.50 Shenandoah .... $2,284.28 Warren.$2,707.50 Amissville Ruritans Sponsor Decorator Contest Amissville Ruritan Club will sponsor a home Christmas lighting and decorating contest again this year.

Historical Society Organized In County Will Be Headed by E. M. Jones The historic Court House of Rappahannock County was the setting for the founding of the Rappahannock County Historical Society on December 14, 1964. Fifty-eight people expressed desire to become charter members at the meeting, with many others who had written or phoned for membership. A slate of officers presented *by>.Mrs. ja> jftUMilUafa nominating committee chairman, was elected to serve for one year. E. M. Jones was elected first President, Mrs. Mary B. Quaintance, Vice Preside nt, Mrs. Johns. Browning,Secretary, and Robert L. Brown, Treasurer, with Mrs. Frances Foster, Assistant Treasurer. The Chaplain is to be the Rev. Charles F. Glaenzer and William M. Carrigan was appointed to coordinate the Society’s activities. Other appointments will be made soon to the offices of Librarian and Historian. It was voted to provide charter membership to all who registered with the Society before the first board meeting which will be held at the Court House on February 8, 1965. This is the birthday of the -county which was cut from Culpeper on February 8,1833. The dues of the Society were determined by vote from a resolution presented by Mr. nuwaru Harris, inree types of membership are available. Individuals will receive charter membership cards, the annual report on the findings of the Society, all releases and program privileges for three dollars a year. Husband and wife may have the same for| five dollars. A Junior membership is availablefor school children at one dollar. This will not include the publications. With the problem of Christmas presents facing us, why not give charter memberships as the ideal gift? Where can one get so much for so little? Applications for charter member cards may be made to any of the above officers. Ten working committees were proposed for research and the collection of materials.

Some committees will study the archil tecture of early houses and research the family history of those who lived in themr Some will look into the types and methods of religious worship as well as locate and identify the churches used. Others are going to write the story of the mills of Rappatownopk*. swdles OR; .industry „ and commerce, on travel and communication, on documents and records will be done by some of the committees. A hundred private cemeteries will be located and accurately identified. A catalogue of known artifacts, furnishings, tools, machinery, and utensils of every kind used in the everyday life of the first settlers here will be prepared. The society wants the coopera| tion of hundreds of people to J locate things. There is not so much desire to acquire the artifacts as to establish their identity and location and re*cord this information. Members need not of necessity serve on a committee, but it is desirable to have as many as possible identified with one committee or another. Information on the scope of the committees can be had from the coordinator, Mr. Carrigan, Box 55, Washington, Va. A series of meetings for the ten committees will be set up Continued on page 2 Mr. Amory Lauded In State Dept. Work A letter concerning a Rappahannock native has recently come to our attention. He is James Franklin Amory, Commercial Attache to the American Embassy in Bern, Switzerland. Mr. Amory was born in Flint Hill in 1917, the son of Mrs. C. P. Amory and the late Mr. Amory and a nephew of the late James M. Settle. The letter written by Mr. Fred Smith, President of Keyes Realty International, Inc. to the American Ambassador, the Honorable William True Davis, Jr., said in pai% “Just a brief note to tell you how greatly Keyes Realty International, Inc. appreciatedthe most competent help which was afforded to us by your Commerical Attache, Mr. James Franklin Amory. He recently met with one of our representatives and gave him a most thorough briefing of the entire economic situation-in Switzerland. ... It is always. so pleasant to become acquainted with an Emhassy staff individual that possesses the competence of Mr. Amory. When we are so fortunate as to be able to work, with such an individual, I feel that both his Ambassador and the State Department should know of the deep gratitude, that we, as citizens, have to be represented by such A knowledgeable person.*

Massie’s Decision ’Worth $208 Per Min. Tom Massie is proud. He has a right to be!1 ? About two weeks ago this young farmer brought in a Sample of his corn silage for forage analysis. As I recall Tom's comment was as follows, "I cut my silage this ’year as near the hard dough ■Stage as I could; if the TDN i&ontent isn't higher than last gear’s its not because I didn't ■jtut it like you said.* g Recently test results were deceived. The TDN content^24.9%. A check of our files ^showed his 1963 test results 5o be 14.8% TDN. X Yes we are comparing results of a crop grown in a 3Jryer season with that produced in a better season. However Tom had pretty good 3Com crops both years. The ^main difference in the ensilage Spras stage of maturity at which corn was harvested. £ Tom couldn’t control the .■weather but he and he alone decided when to harvest the “Crop. What was this decision %orth to him in 1964? We can’t measure this worth Exactly as a lot of costs are {involved, however there are 3»me fair assumptions we can ^paake. Five doll ars per ton is a S._ „ typical cost In Virginia (15T/ acre) when If comes to makinj silage. Last yearfe silage contained 296 pounds of tota digestible nutrients per ton this yearls silage had 498 lbs TDN per ton. Thus the comparative TDN costs per poun< were 1.7(5 and 1(5. Storage is another cost. L Tom had say 20 acres tha yielded 15 tons per acre li 1964, It would have taken 50' tons of the 1963 silage to have been equal to this yearfe feet value. This represents a difference of 204 tons! He woulc need two additional 12’ x 45 silos to store the feed! At $5.00 per ton as a typica cost this figures the decisioi worth $1020.00. But there is still anothei value to consider. It took 6' lbs. of the 1963 silage t( satisfy the daily nutritive needs of a 1100 lb. dry bee; cow, but 38 pounds of hjs 196' silage will do the job! Don’; forget there is a lot of laboi or machine capital, involvec in handling silage from the silo to the cows. Congratulations Tom - I'rr proud of the job you did.

Above they admire a pastel chalk for sale which was done by Mrs. Barbara Gentry, Flint Hill. Active In Appalachian Vo/. Nancy Latham of Amissville is active in the Appalachian Volunteers organization at Berea College. The Volunteers are students from twenty Eastern Kentucky colleges who are interested in improving life in the poorer regions of Kentucky mountains. They give their Saturdays to work on the projects without thought of pay. Last year, when the students began to organize, the Volunteers helped winterize forty one and two room, rickety, dilapidated rural schools in Eastern Kentucky. The materials for renovation were donated by private companies. Jhis ye^r the Volunteers are wmrking mainly to (establish libraries in the small back wood schools and to provide “school enrichment" programs for the many children who voluntarily come to school on Saturdays. The children enthusiastically participate in such projects as music> folkdancing, singing, art, drawing, cutting out pictures, and observing numerous science demonstrations. The entire program is being wellreceived by the communities. At present the Appalachian Volunteers effort is coordinated by the Council of Southern Mountains at Berea. According to Milton Ogls, director of Chester Gap H.D. Club The regular meeting of! Chester Gap Home Demon- j stration Club was held Thursday night at the fire hall. Those present were Mrs. W e 11 i e Willis, Mrs. Jessie Wines, Mrs. Lucy Williams, Mrs. Ethel Williams, Mrs. Dorcas Juser, Mrs. Iva Williams, Mrs. Lillian Fox, Mrs. Eileen Davis. Mrs. Naomi Dulin, Mrs. Nora Sealock, Mrs. Maybelle Gilkey, Misses Mattie Williams, Linda Dulin and Barbara Pullen and Home Agent, Miss Doris Daugherty. Gifts were exchanged and refreshments served. Appalachian Volunteers, the program is still in its primary stages of organization. He, as well as the other Volunteers, believes that , this type trf program which is concerned with humafi und^ritanding\ffid jdlnt participation of college students and community youths and adults will be superior to that of mere distribution of web fare checks, commodities, and clothing.

Christmas In Many Lands Americans who dream of a white Christmas with Santa Claus popping down the chimney to the tune of “Jingle Bells* can thank assorted writers and poets and the north ern climate. Christmas in the land of Christ’s birth, however, is another matter. What is Christmas like in Bethlehem? There’s generally no snow, for one thing, for winters are mild in the Judean Hills around Bethlehem, reports World Book Encyclopedia. No Santa Claus listens to children’s pleas, for he’s an American invention based on a European saint. And there’s probably no decorated Christmas tree in the ‘Village square; that custom originated in Germany. uv*Instead, the focal point of Christmas in Bethlehem is the Church of St. M a r y of the Nativity, supposedly built over United State*’ Apple Cart ; Filled 1^* Brim This Year Washington — If the United i States’ apple cart were upset ; this year, 14 billion apples ] would roll out. Despite a summer-long i drought which cut down the : size of apples growing in or- i chards of the central Appalachians, a nationwide harvest of 141.2 million bushels 1 is expected by the Agriculture ] Department. This is 13 percent greater than the 1963 crop, Americans will use most of 1 this fruit, for few apples are exported, the National Geographic Society says. The apple can make good claim to ! being the all-American fruit. It grows in nearly every state. More apples -- and apple 1 pies — are produced in the United States than in any other country. Foreign growers favor American varieties. j Apples Put To Sleep , j Before apples reach pie pans teachers' desks, lunch pails and cider jugs they have been handled by an impressive array of equipment. No one has yet perfected an automatic picker, but machines wash and polish, wrap and pack, peel and core, slice and squeeze, cook and can, thousands of pounds of apples. Choice apples are put to sleep, in effect, to preserve freshness for months beyond the harvest season. Since apples, like human beings need oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide, the rate of respiration can be slowed down by reducing oxygen and temperature in airtight stor age rooms. Such hibernating the spot where Jesus was born. Here pilgrims from all over the world gather on Christmas Eve. First there is c a r o 1singing in the square facing the church. Then all enter for the solemn midnight mass. After the service, an image of Christ is carried in a pro-! cession down into the grotto, and is placed in a manger where it lies until January 6, the Feast of the Epiphany. After this ceremony, some may wandtr into the fields outside tJie town, where perhaps shepherds long ago heard the news of the birth of Christ, All this takes place,of course on the eve of December 25. But that’s not the end of Christmas in Bethlehem. For the Eastern Orthodox churches celebrate the holiday on January 6, and the Armenians observe it on January 18, which is January 6 according to the old style, or Julian calendar.

Ever iince Eve persuaded ^dam tqi try one, apples have >een a worldwide favorite. Europe's Stone-Age men warded them in caves. Ancient jRomans, wrote Pliny he Elder, munched on at least !2 different Varieties. By the ime Columbus sailed to America, the apple was the nost important cultivated ruit in central and northern Europe. A hardy tree, the apple was ible to withstand extremes of lemperature. The fruit kept veil, an important considera:ion before refreigeration. The first settlers to the 'lew World brought apples. Soon Indian tribes were planting orchards. John Chapman Jarned a new name as he roamed about Ohio and Indiana in the early 19th century, leaching the gospel and planting apples. He became known ind celebrated as Johnny \ppleseedt. Seeds Unreliable Apple trees are propagated ay grafting, since seeds rare ly reproduce true to the parant. Occasionally, however, a seedling is found with highly desirable characteristics. John McIntosh planted an archard in 1796 in Canada’s Dundas County, Ontario, with unreliable, seeds. The trees were all runts except for one, the source of every McIntosh apple eaten today. Grateful citizens in Dundas erected a stone monument to honor McIntosh and his single good tree. Apples have long been credit, ed with healing powers. A recent experiment tends to support the old adage that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Researchers at Michigan State University reported that a group of 1,300 students who ate apples regularly for three years had “significantlyfewer colds and tension-caused illnesses than their fellow students. 12-Inch Bass Limit Approved For Shenandoah In ’65 ind ml Commission of Game and Inland Fisheries set a 12 inch minimum bass size limit for the North Fork, South Fork and main stream of the Shenandoah River at their regular meeting in Virginia Beach November 30.

Fishermen will not !be allowed to have any large mouth or smallmouth bass less than 12 inches in possession while on these waters. ^ A daily creel limit of 2 and a minimum size limit of 26 inches for Northern pike and .muskellunge was adopted to give protection to these species recently introduced into Virginia waters. The Commission also imposed^a daily creel limit of 5 trout on all impoundments. The purpose of this regulation was to help spread out the harvest on smaller National F o r e s t and Game Commissiorf lakes that are stocked with trout and subjected to heavy fishing pressure. This special creel limit does not affect the general statewide creel limit of eight trout on all trqut streams. The sucker dipping season was changed to February 15 1965, through May 15, 1965 tb allow more opportunity for dip netting. This change does not affect an earlier season already established for Rockbridge County. The reciprocal license zone on the Roanoke River where either North Carolina or Virginia licenses are honored was extended upstream to Brantley Steam plant at Danville. The daily creel limit on largemouth, smallmoiith and striped bass in this area |is 8 fish in the aggregate.

NEW8> Washington. Va. { £ Thursday, December 17, 1964 From The Home Agent*i Pen By Doris Daugherty idition of Christmas Tree l A wide-eyed child gazing unbelieveingly at his first hristmas tree is far reeved from a lusty Roman or uid chanting incantations to Bis decorated tree. Yet, it is from these two sources that the custom of the Christmas free came. .During the mid-winter Saturnalia, Romans decorated trees with bits of metal and, replicas of their god of wine, Bacchus. At times they placed 12 candles on the tree in honor of their sun god, Apollo. In Britain at the same season, the druids honored their chief god by tying fruit and cakes in shapes of birds, fish, and gnimals to tree branches. They also placed lighted candles on the boughs of trees to honor their sun god. After these pagans accepted Christianity, they continued their Winter rites but changed them to honor Christ. py tne miacue oi tne totn century, decorated trees began to become popular in areas of Germany and France. During the following centuries the trees slowly became more popular throughout Germany; yet, it was not until the 19th century, the Christmas tree was accepted widely as a German custom. Christmas t*ee s were introduced in America around 1700 by German immigrants but did not come into general use until the middle of the 19th century. tThe Christmas tree, or Tanr nenbaum, is now and probably fbr a long time to come, will be the most popular plant U6ed to celebrate the Christmas season. Tradition of Holly .Some time deep in the past, pagans in Europe took sprays of holly into their dwellings to give shelter in the winter to the tiny, imaginary forest people they believed to be living in the holly trees. From this kindness came the custom of using hblly for decoration, and it was used by the Romans to deco rate for their mid-winter feast the Saturnalia. While oak and mistletoe are the plants most commonly associated with the religious rites of the druids, priests of the Britons, holly may also have had religious significance. It certainly was used for decorative purposes in what w<s now call England. In order to attract the pagan Britons to Christianity, Pope Gregory I in the 6th century allowed the use of holly in religious decorations. In folklore, holly has come to mean many things. It is traditionally associated with masculinity and good luck. The ancients, besides using the plant as a religious decoration, gave branches as symbols of friendship. In medieval England, holly was kept in the home or on the person as a protection against witchcraft. At the same time in Germany, holly used as a. church decor at tion was taken home to ward off lightning. It is known in English as holly, holm, or holms; in Spanish as acebo; in French as lehoux; and in Danish as stikpalme. When holly appears in the home it opens a season of feasting and good cheer. It has become* a Christmas symbol of joy and merriment. Polnsettia, Christmas Plant A, native pf.Qeptr^ Amecicf. the polnsettia plant is widely used in churches and homes at Christmas. The most popular plant of the season is named for Dr. »Joel Robert Poinsett who served as U. S. Ambassador to Mexico. Upon his return from their country in 1829, he brought the plant with him to his South Carolina home. Mexicans call the polnsettia the “Flower of the Holy NightJ1 or “Flameleaf,* One Mexican legend is that a plant grew from each drop of blood from the broken heart of a young maiden. Another explains the origin of the plant. On Christmas Eve a longtime ago, a poor boy went to church with great sadness because he had no gift for the Holy Child. Because of his shame, he dared not enter the church but knelt down, prayed and assured God with tears in his eyes how much he desired to offer a lovely gift. When he arose from his knees, he saw a plant with blinding red blooms springing up at his feet. Overjoyed, he broke some of the branches, entered the church, and Joyously placed them at the feet of the Christ Child. Christmas Hints An accident can take the joy out of Christmas. Guard against fire in the home during the holiday by checking wiring for Christmas lights, using a screen at the fire place, and keeping the Christmas tree standing in water. For further protection, spray the tree with a solution of 9 parts water glass (available at drug stores), one part water, and a teaspoonful of household detergent. This will cause no change in the color of the needles, and the foliage will have a shiny translucent finish. “Suds-snow is especially good for decorating windows, mirrors, wreaths and even the Christmas tree. All you need is plenty of packaged soap or detergent, and a little water. Mix and whip with a rotary beater or an electric mixer. You don’t have to measure exact proportions - just add either more soap or more water as required. For drifts of snow, beat the mixture to a stiff, meringue-like consistency. A thicker, claylike mixture makes snowballs and snowmen. As the snow dries, it stiffens to a porous texture and lasts for weeks. Most important, it’s easy to clean up.

Beware Of Eye Injuries From Christmas Trees And Toys A Christmas memo to Amerk can parents on trees and toys:. Don't let a needless eye ac»“ cident wreck your family’s: holiday happiness. The National Society for the Prevention of Blindness cau-y tioned here today . that accidents around the Christmasi tree and from unsafe chil - dren's toys will be the* principal causes of eye in*; juries during the Yule season.' The' Society** * warnlrtg came-, as part of its annual "Safe? Gifts From Santa" campaignJ The traditional family Christ' mas tree with its fragile de-! corations has damaged many eyes in recent years, report ed John W, Ferree, M. D.;> Executive Director of the: National Society. A sharp pine needle punctured the eye of a West Coast woman as she bent over to umplug the tree' lights. A two-year-old was hospitalized after broken ornament fragments got into her left eye. An exploding Christmas tree light bulb cut the eye of a young Western boy. "Throughout the holidays" remind alKth^ family members, young and old alike, about the hazards of shattered ornaments and lights, the point ed needles on wreaths and trees, the keen edges of wrapping materials, and the threat of fire, "Dr. Ferree said. "A good measure of common sense will keep the holiday happy." The National society estimates that eye acidents will strike nearly 12,800American youngsters during the Christmas period. Wise toy purchases would do much to reduce this total, according to the 56-year-old health agency. "Youngsters often ask for Christmas toys that are too advanced for them,” said Dr. Ferree. "A normally-safe toy such as a chemistry set or tool kit can cost an eye if mishandled in small or inexperienced hands. Make sure your child is capable of handling safely every plaything he gets from Santa.” Missile-type toys like darts: and arctysry sets are par-: ticularly dangerous to eye* sight. Check with local au-i thorities if your child wantsan air rifle or pellet gun* such Instruments are illegal! in some communities. Above all. if any of these gifts are on your Christmas list, mate: sure that the child is wel| grounded in the rules of safety before he uses them. Lateft may be to late. Other toy-buying hints from the National Society: ij Look for sturdy construction with shatter-resistant and non flammable materials. j Toys should have no detach-' able parts, springs or gears that can fly into the eye si Edges should be smooth, coif ners rounded and mechanisms enclosed.

Veterans News Again the President has ordered speeded up payments of a $224.5 million G. I. insurance dividend for the year 1965. In previous years up to 1963 the dividend payments were made on the anniversary dates of the policies. These dividends are return to the policyholders of part of their premium payments be cause the death rate among holders of G. I. insurance continues to be lower than the rate upon which the premiums were originally established. Of the 1965 dividends about $210 million will go to some 4.5 million holders of the WWII National Service Life Insurance, and the remainder will go to WWI veterans with U. S. Government Life Insurance. Payments of these dividends are automatic and no correspondence is required. In fact, inquiries about the dividends could result in delay of their payment. Payment will begin January 1, 1965, and is expected to be completed by the middle of that month. Edward M.

Let the basic rules guide you when doing your home arrangement. Decorators say the arrangement should be kept as low as possible to allow across-the-table conversation without “dodging” heads back and forth. There’ll be plenty of food around during the holidays, so be sure the decorations don’t take up too much room. Care should be exercised to subordinate the receptacles used to the materials used as decorations. Use plenty of color but don’t allow one shade to dominate too much.
