Lea Bros. Store Discontinues Business Lea Bros. Store in Washington discontinued business Sat urday after serving the town 38 years. The business was first opened here January 6, 1928 by T. C. Lea and at that time was located on the corner where the Washington Cash store is now. In 1935 the present building was constructed on the corner of Gay and Jett Streets by Mr. Lea and he continued to operate it until his death in 1957. At this time Mrs Lea continued the business until 1964 when she sold out to her 6on T. Carlyle Lea, Jr. for health reasons.

She also announced the 1966 National Extension Homemakers Council will be held at Fort Collins, Colo, on August 4-7. Burning Law in Effect Thru May 15 R. M. Johnson, Chief Forest Warden for Rappahannock County announced that the 4 o'clock burning law becomes effective Tuesday, March 1, and is in effect until May 15. This law states that open air fires are unlawful of within 300 feet of the woods, or inflammable material leading to woodland, except between 4 o’clock in the afternoon and 12 o’clock midnight. This law is a good forest fire prevention measure because it prohibits burning in dangerous areas during the time of day when a fire burns most rapidly. Since the spring months are generally hazardous, the law is seasonal, apply, ing only during the months forest fire danger is most critical. Forestry personnel ask the cooperation of the public when burning in the open air. By burning during the legal hours, the danger of a fire escaping is not as great as earlier in the day. Even when burning after 4 o’clock, the fire should be attended and completely extinguished before leaving. Burn on an afternoon when the wind is calm, and the air is moist. This reduces the chance of • blowing embers starting a fire in nearby dry grass or woodland. The law will be enforced through the aid ‘of forest fire lookout towers, airplane patrol, and all personnel of the Virginia Division of Forestry. Lemon Atkins Breaks Hip in Fall Lemon Atkins of Sperryville fell at his home Friday and broke his right leg above the knee. He was taken to Warren Memorial Hospital, Front Royal where he was put in taction and.a casiwaa applied NOTICE Worship services will be held at Five Forks Church every first Sunday of the month at 11 a.m. with Elder Mack A. Morgan as pastor. Every third Sunday of the month, worship services will be held at 11 a.m. with Elder Standley Corbin as speaker. ‘Longlea’, 671-Acre Estate Near Boston Purchased By Fisher, Pres. 01 Institute for American Strategy The sale of “Longlea”, the magnificent chateau-type manor house on 671 acres near Boston, Virginia, heralds a new program of educational activity of much interest to Rappahannock and Culpeper Counties. The estate is located in the western section of Culpeper County a short distance from U. S. 522. "Longlea” is one of the largest private estates to change hands in this area in recent years. The sale, negotiated by Edward A. Harris of Edward A. Harris & Associates, Huntly, was consummated last week. The sellers were Mr. and Mrs. Richard J. Kirkpatrick, and the purchaser is John M. Fisher, President of the Institute for American Strategy. The Institute is a non-profit organization incorporated in 1949 to conduct seminars and studies of the most effective ways to combat Communism, with stress also on affirmative ways to advance democracy. The administrative director is Gen. Edward Lansdale, now on leave in Vietnam as an assistant in rehabilitation work to Ambassador Lodge. The organization’s board of directors includes many top industrialists and educators, and its Advisory Board consists of eight U. S. Senators and 27 Representatives. Senators Thomas J. Dodd, Demo9*31 of Connecticut, and Karl ffc. Mundt, Republican, of S. Dakota, are co-chairman ot the Senate group. The beautiful manor house will be redecorated and refurbished by the Institute, which plans to hold its first event, a seminar, there during the first week of May. Fisher said the institute’s annual meeting will be held there also. Long-range plans call for the construction of five or six college-type administrative buildings as a school for Congressional staff members and other governmental aids, to be conducted by a resident faculty. There will also be guest instructors. The school probably will be known as the “Freedom Studies Center." "Longlea", in addition to the 20-room stone manor house, has beautiful formal gardens, a, natural pool in a wooded setting, mountain views and miles of the Hazel River within its boundaries. Last Spring an option was taken on “Longlea" by a Florida real estate developer, who also took an option on an adjoining 950-acre dairy farm owned jointly by Mrs. Kirkpatrick and her son, Michael Marsh of Rappahannock County. The option was jaflowed to expire last sumjmer. j Present administrative offices of the Institute, which is closely affiliated with the American Security Council, jare in Chicago, where Mr. !Fisher resides. | Fire and Rescue \ \ Squad Notes \ Amissville Rescue Squa< took Mrs. Mark Payne to Winchester Memorial Hospital on Monday.

Pottery Shop Opened in Town Washington By Miss Jordan une oi tne newest Dusiness establishments in Rappahannock County is one of the oldest crafts known to man—a potter’s shop. Here all phases of pottery from the moist clay to the finished glazed product are carried on, and in addition, a sales and showroom are maintained. It is located on Main Street in Washington, near Washington Cash Store. The shop is unique in sever; al aspects. It is owned and operated solely by Miss June Jordan, a personable young ! lady who is a native Virginian reared at Mt. Crawford. The building in which the shop is located is one of the oldest structures in the Town of Washington, a timbered house said to have been standing when George Washington surveyed the village in 1749. In the past the building has housed a tinner’s shop shoe shop; meat market and antique shop. The slender artistic Miss Jordan studied art at the University of Georgia and majored in ceramics. She was graduated in 1961 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. The sum mers of ’62, ’63 and ’64 were spent in Guerneville. Cali fornia where she studied under Marguerite Wildenhain at-her Farm Pond Summer Workshop In 1964 she received her Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of Georgia. She studied ceramics under Earl McCutchen and crafts under Wiley Sanderson. While obtaining her MFA she taught an adult night class in ceramics. After graduation Miss Jordan began looking for a suitable location for her shop, and through a friend discovered this one which she says, “fits my personality and my needs." Some major repairs were made to the building, but, declares Miss Jordan, “1 soon found out that getting into production was more important than finishing the remodeling, so therp is still much to be done. The showroom is not complete nor is my entrance finished." A potter's wheel, which she had already’ acquired, is the first necessity of a shop and she perfers a kick wheel to an electric or treadle wheel. Next and the most expensive equipment was the electric kiln. This is used in firing the clay wares after they are made and again after they are glazed. A laundry sink, storage and glaze containers, a workbench and scales were other necessary items which were minor and easily acquired. Next came the acquisition of supplies of clay and glazes. Different types of clay were secured from Kentucky and Georgia and glazing materials were purchased from supply houses and mines. In her glaz(Continued on page 5) Petty Thefts Here A series of petty thefts occurred in Rappahannock and surrounding area late Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning. A number of coin containers on soft drink boxes were broken open and the money taken from them. In Rappahannock boxes at Sperryville Corner Store and Sperryville Esso Station and Burke’s Grocery Store at Woodville were pilfered. Several boxes in Madison were opened and at least one in Brandy Station. Two Single-Car Crashes Reported Saturday Two single-vehicle accidents were reported Saturday by Trooper J. B. Willis.

Letter To Editor Dear Madam Editor: 1 am genuinely grateful for the helpful observations made and the pertinent questions raised last week by Perturbed. The future of our elementary school education in this county will be greatly influenced for years to come, by the kind Of wisdom which goes Into the decision to enlarge our educational plant. I am disturbed and to some x degree threatened, when I realize that the public is asked to vote on this, without having been given the benefit of the many factors and considerations involved, which must be considered by any thoughtful; person, if the decision is to be a sound one. The omission of these from the ballot may facilitate handling, but this over-simplicity acts as a facade, which to me performs the same function as a halloween mask. . .it obscures the true identity. ' Therefore, to use this ballot In its present form as a measure of public opinion on this vital. topic, might well not measure public opinion at all. In reality it may be a vote for the lower tax rate only. The questions raised in last week’s letter from Perturbed has provided an outline for study of this topic, for interested citizens, so that they may secure data on which to base their decision. It is as true today as on the day the statement was first uttered: •equity aids the vigilant*. The real burden for sound decisions rests on every one of us, to “seek the truth, come whence it may, cost what it will*. Based on my set of values, I find the 30-room ele. mentary school the wise choice for Rappahannock. < — Charles Glaenzer #.:<■«>’■”’* *!■**?' ^rri ti t r -i r ' r- ‘ Editor, The Rappahannock News Washington, Virginia Dear Editor: As a holder of public office an individual cannot expect to please every member of his .oar her district, but must do all in their power to make fair and just decisions for the benefit of the people. This I have tried to do. I did not feel that I could spent $783,000 or $488,000 of the taxpayers m&ney without at least consulting the voters and taxpayers. Volumes could be written on the pros and cons of the two choices, but in my letter to the voters of Hampton District I tried to be as brief and objective as possible, making myself available to answer any questions I could, and to discuss this issue with anyone. I do not deny a person's right, nor do I object to an individual disagreeing with the wording of my letter to the voters of Hampton District concerning school construction. However, I strongly object to the letter written by •Perturbed1’ in your last edition. “Perturbed" has questioned my intention, fairness, and integrity before all the people of Rappahannock County without having the courage of conviction to let your readers know his or her identity. With this in mind, would you please re-examine your policy of printing unsigned letters (unsigned for your readers) in your paper? May I ask a few questions that I think your readers will answer for themselves? Is the anonymous letter good for the community? Is the anonymous letter fair to your readers or the persons being criticized? What are you teaching our children? Are we teaching them responsibility or irresponsibility for their words and actions? Is it no longer right to say what you think to be right, and stand behind your convictions, or do we prefer to hide and take verbal shots at individuals simply because we do not agree with their thoughts or actions? The anonymous letter lets a reader, no matter how responsible or irresponsible he may be, say anything he wants to say about a citizen without Identifying himself to your readers. This “Guerrilla" tactic, of hide and write, could surely not come under the categories of Freedom of Speech, or Freedom of The Press.' All too often we read the •Perturbed1’ type letters in your paper, and witness the assault on the character of responsible people (1 do not refer to myself here) who have had the courage to sign their letters to you, by people who do not have the courage or conviction to sign their names. A writer can do wonders with truths, half-truths, and untruths to make a convincing argument for most any subject. All of this without identifying themselves to your readers. After each letter oi this type you hear, “Who dc /ou think anonymous is?", or “I think it is so and so," or “Man or Woman?". Our community is too small to spread this type of suspicion. This constant barrage of "Perturbed" type letters may lead people to believe that one person or a very small group may be responsible for all of these type letters. I know that •Perturbeds" will make me regret writing this letter to you many times over, but I feel that this has needed saying in print for some time. As long as I remain a Supervisor, I expect to get and will get criticism, but please make it constructive, and grant me the simple courtesy of letting your readers know my critics. Sincerely, J. Newbill Miller Dear Editor: I am a taxpayer, a retired teacher with no children, but interested in all children. I felt it was from an unselfish position when I cast my vote for the 30-room school construction in preference to the 14-room construction. When I checked the space for voting on the letter sent to by Mr. Miller, supervisor for Hampton District, I expressed some of my feelings in vot ing as I did. When the Rappahannock High School was built, it was built with a minimum cost, supposedly to save money. Money has not been saved. The building is inadequate, if not for present enrollment, it is for future enrollment. The cost of construction for additions now is much greater than it would have been with the original. The cost will be greater as time goes by. If the $275,000 difference in the construction of the 30room building is the means of eliminating the two fire traps (the two elementary schools now in use) then that alone is reason enough for my voting for the 30-room construction. I taught several days before this past Christmas in one of the buildings. My thoughts then and since have been-what would happen in case of a fire. Teachers, I .am sure, are concerned, but dare not express their opinions often. Why - you ask-am I concerned since I have no child there. My life has been spent in the interest of children and youth trying to help them secure the best education. One child’s life lost in a fire could not be evaluated in terms of money Who can say since a fire has not occurred it won't occur? Beautiful Meadowbrook stood I dare say, a more adequate ly constructed building than the two present elementary schools, but fire destroyed it and its contents. I know the age of these buildings. My schooling began when the Washington High School, as it was called then, opened its doors. Taxes won’t be lower if the 14-room school is construct ed. The necessary repair work done on the two buildings will be costly and they would still be inadequate. There will be the operation of 3 elementary schools; 3 principals instead of 1; 3 heat ing systems instead of 1; 3 water supplies instead of 1 and teachers for 3 schools. Then there will be the triply I would think, transportation operation. This would be cost ly and some children would have advantages of the new facilities while others would be left with the dangerous inadequate facilities. I am a firm believer in pub lie education. Today, no matter if we think it more desirable, we cannot live unto ourselves alone. Some of you who read this will begin to think back on the past and re member, I hope, that my interest in the past was the in terest of children in this coun ty. Though it was necessary for me to teach out of the county these past number of years, I wished often the children back home had some of the advantages given the chil dren I was teaching. There has been some progress in the field here, but the need is far greater and more rapid progress in the future. We must look ahead for the youth of Rappahannock. One person cannot accomplish the task aor.e. This educational task must be the work of all parents and those interested in Rappahannock and its children. Adequate con struction, proper equipment, efficient teaching materials and good salaries for teachers blend to make learning desirable and effective. I do not object to paying Are Gifts a Problem?

Card Of Thanks I wish to thank everyone for their cards, visits and calls during my recent hospitalization at Newton D. Baker Hospital, Martinsburg, W. Va. M. C. Watts Pen If your child is overweight, don’t wait for the situation to solve itself. Research shows this problem is rarely outgrown, and often becomes more difficult with age. Correcting the problem early with a balanced diet and good food habits is recommended by nutritionists in the U. S. Dept, of Agriculture. Genetics apparently plays an important role in the overweight problem. Recent research at Harvard University shows that 40 to 50 percent of the children were overweight when one parent was overweight, and when both parents were overweight, 80 percent of the children also were. Food habits, tastes, and preferences are learned early, and authorities agree it is a sound policy to help young children acquire the habit of eating balanced meals, not too calorie-loaded. Establishing good food habits, they remind, is simpler than breaking bad ones. ************ Wash-before-vvearing is always a good rule for napped fabrics in bright or deep colors. For example, redflannellette sleepwear may rub off on skin or sheets unless excess surface dye is flushed away by a series of sudsing and rinses. * * * * * * * * * * * * Vinyl tiles are increasingly realistic, with textures that resemble ancient paving bricks, marble, mosaic, cobblestones..even leather.

Feature Farmers taking part in the 1966 wheat- and feed grain diversion programs have builtin insurance against natural disaster,~7according to H. S. Barksdale, Chairman, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee. The Chairman explained that last year, when flood, drought, and other such natural disasters prevented farmers fom carrying out their signedup program intentions, special legislation was enacted to enable participants to qualify for the program payments, and thus meet the emergency situation. Because of this expert ence, similar provisions were included in the omnibus Food and Agriculture Act of 1965, enacted last November. Therefore, farmers who sign up to take part in the 1966 wheat andfeed grain programs may still qualify for feed grain price-support payments and wheat marketing certificates if the farmer files a Special application at the ASCS county office and it can be determined that disaster conditions prevented the planting of part or all of the acreage intended for production under the adjustment programs. How ever, the acreage would not qualify for the disaster benefits if it was subsequently devoted to any income-producing crop for harvest in 1966. Tne price-support payments and certificates available under this program provision would be figured on the project ed yield of the unplanted acrea Ordinarily, the payments and certificates are computed on the, projected yield of the “acreage plantedfor harvest.’ This insurance feature of the program Assures the program participant that he will have some income from acreage he intends using for production even though he may be overtaken by natural disaster. There are now 60 Rappahannock farmers signed to participate in the feed grain program and 9 farmers signed to participate in the wheat program for 1966. Sign-up for these programs closes April 1, 1966. For the convenience of farmers, the ASCS office will be open from 8 -12 a. m. on Saturday, March 12, and Saturday Ma££h 26. .

Soc. Security Notes If you work after you apply for social security benefits and earn $1500 or less in a year beginning in January 196f) you will receive all your social security payments for the year Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, Social Security District Manager in Winchester, announced today. Beginning in 1966, if you earn more than $1500 in a year, the general rule is that $1 in benefits will be withheld for each $2 of earnings over $1500 and up to $2700. If you earn over $2700 in a year, $1 in benefits will be withheld for each $1 earned over $2700. There are two exceptions NOTICE Virginia Telephone and Telegraph Company bills may be paid, temporarily, at the residence of Mrs. Virginia Estes in Washington or mailed as usual to P. O. Box 143, Front Royal, Va. Mrs. Irving Sisk, who lives across the street from Miss Jordan’s shop, looks over some) of the pottery made here. The mugs, pitchers, etc. on the left are completed. Those on the right must be glazed and fired again. The variety of earthen ware made by Miss Jordan is amazing, for instance the lemon squeezer which Mrs. Sisk holds. Pottery Shop- i (Continued from Page 1) ing formula which she deveiof ed, several dry ingredients must be mixed with water tot thin creamy consistency. The to this general rule: (1) If in any month you neither earn more than $125 working for someone else nor dc substantial work in a business of your own, you will get your benefit for that month no matter how much you earn in the rest of the year. (2) For months after you a re 72 years of age, there will be no deductions from the benefits because of work after you reached 72. If you work after applying for retirement benefits, your additional earnings may increase the amount of your monthly payments, she continued. The Social Security Administration will use its electronic computers todetermine whether your recent earnings will increase your benefit amount. If so, the increase will be made automatically and you will not have to apply to have your benefit refigured. Because of this change, you cannot lose by applying as soon as possible for any bene fits due you even though you continue to work, Mrs. Daly said. The Winchester Social Security Office will be happy to discuss this or any provision of social security. Office hours are 8:45 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. bn Saturdays. The office is now located at 20 South Cameron Street. A representative of the Social Security Office is at the courthouse, Washington, Va. each second Wednesday of the month at 10 a.m. ^glaze must be exact so ingre- j clients are weighed on gram i Scales for intense accuracy j . and are mixed with utmost 1 care to assure a uniform glaze I Glazes come in a variety of ! colors. J Miss Jordan prepares her clay body by hand. It is | moistened and spaded then wedged into lumps and aged for at least three weeks. The i aging breaks down the clay J particles making it more plastic, which means it will respond more readily to the throwing movements and be less likely to collapse. Early Japanese potters considered aging so important that often a potter used clay that had been prepared and left to age by his grandfather. Just before using, the clay is i wedged again and production | begins. Miss Jordon breaks; off a lump of clay, the amount depending on the size vessel to be made, and “throws* it on the wheel which she k4cks into motion. In a matter of minutes, a bowl, a pitcher, a jar, or what have you, has materialized under the adept hands of the artist. Handles and this is set aside to dry and another begun. Handles wnen needed, and decorations when desired, are applied and the pot set aside to dry. When large production is wanted, an assembly line technique is used. A number of ves sels are made, then all handles attached followed by the decorating of all products. When enough clay ware has been made to fill the kiln, it is loaded and bisque fired which hardens the product so the glaze can be applied with ease and without damage to the - pot. After the application of the glaze, done by dipping or pouring, the ware is kiln fired a second time and comes oui with a smooth surface that is waterproof. Miss Jordan says she prefers working on the wheel as opposed to pinching, coiling or slabbing techniques. She feels there are more unlimitec possibilities with the throwr form and wishes to continue tG explore them. She finds thai new ideas come from working directly with the clay and or the wheel. She says, “I don’t often come up with "an ides by sitting and thinking about it, and I never conceive a pot by first drawing it on paper." In addition to the influences of Marguerite and her teachers at the University, she is influenced by the pottery ol her favorite periods, as Greel medieval English and Earl) American along with pre-Columbian Indians of North and South America. “The current trend in pot tery has not been much of an influence in my work," says Miss Jordan, “It is not that I don't like or admire it, but I feel it is not right for me. I want to develop something of my own and in my own way. Since my past experience has been with more traditional forms, I have to use this background for whatever may come out later. With work, determination, time andexperience maybe a style will show forth that I can claim as my own." In addition to selling at her shop, she will have outlets through different gift and craft shops. THE VILLAGE SHOP Main Street Flint Hill Oak Forest Gardens Products Come See!

The expanded engineering and construction schedule designed by C&P for this work is in addition to other service improvement included in C&P's original construction program announced earlier this year. The additional expenditures required to make these new services available are expected to cost nearly $9 million.
