Historical Society Meeting Dec. 5 A meeting of the Rappahannock Historical Society is scheduled for Friday, December 5, 1969 at 7:45 p.m. (The date was incorrectly stated last week.) The meeting will be held at Rappahannock Library and will feature a speaker from the National Trust. A discussion on the antiquities of Rappahannock will take place also. Ris ing Income Level Seen in County A larger proportion of families in Rappahannock County is to be found today in the middle and upper income brackets than ever before. The income gains achieved in recent years have carried many of them tto new and higher levels. Families who had been in the $5,000 to $8,000 bracket have moved into the $8,000 to $10,000 category. Their former position has been occupied, in turn, by families who had been in the $3,000 to $5,000 group. The facts and figures are brought out in a copyrighted study, made by Sales Management, to determine the makeup of each community in terms of income levels. Every section of the country is covered in the breakdown. What was sought was a better financial picture of each area than was possible through the “average income” figure that is usually given. Is that average made up of a small proportion of families with big incomes counterbalancing a much larger proportion with low incomes, or are earnings more evenly divided? In Rappahannock County, it is shown, no less than 39.3 percent of the households had disposable cash incomes of $5,000 or more last year after payment of their income taxes. This compared favorably with the proportions reported in previous years, when similar studies were made. Only 31.8 percent were in the “over 85,000” brackets in 1966. The gain, 7.5 percent, topped the United States gain of 4.8 percent and that in the State of Virginia, 6.4 percent. The report also gives a breakdown showing where the rest of the local population stands. It lists 23.6 percent of the households in the 85,000 to 88.000 category and another 9.0 percent in the 88,000 to 810,000 bracket. Those with incomes between 83,000 and 85 .000 total 24.0 percent. The remainder is made up of families with incomes above 810,000 or below 83,000. Because the report takes into account only money income it somewhat understates the real income in farm areas, whei'e the use of home grown products is a valuable consideration. With inflation rampant throughout the country, many families are finding that they are not getting as much out of their bigger incomes as they expected Tift increased cost of living is eating up a big part of the gain. The chorus at Rappahannock County High School will be featured at an assembly program at the school today (Wednesday) at 2:30 o'clock to which patrons are invited. Chorus director Mrs. Betsy Blauvelt is at right and members are front row, left to right: Lynn Whitehurst, Maury Nichols, Karl Burke, Jimmy Orange and Mary Lynn Smelly; second row, Linda Jenkins, Steven Baker, Lincoln Timbers, John Norman and Sandra Payne; third row, Tommy Walters and Lois Yates; back row, Joan Dodson, Mary Elizabeth Jenkins, Wanda Williams and Brenda Printz.

Amissville Ruritans Honor Ladies With Special Dinner Meseting By H. R. Terhune The annual Amissville Ruritan Ladies Night again proved to be a night of nights for those fortunate citizens possessed both of a treasured club membership and a perfumed little number with starry eyes and a new gown. These cherished little princesses, coaxed from their chimney corners last Wednesday evening, were carried in sparkling transition from the fabled pumpkin chariot to the cushioned ease of the family gas coach. The pretty guests arrived at 7:30 hungry to sample the delicacies of a fine dinner prepared by the Auxiliary of the Amissville Tire Department and were squired by their gallant prince all freshly trimmed at President-Elect Burner’s barbershop or groomed at home with the misses’ pinking shears. Not all the ladies graced the arms of their handsome dates, however, and one wife arrive unescorted. It seems that about dark her good man took the truck to round up some calves for feeding. This was day or two after the trio landed on the moon, so naturally it was raining like the mischief, and our cattleman got stuck in the mud with bald tire and poor judgment Abandoning the truck, he sought first one tractor then a second and found no lights on either one The feed was still on the truck, so our respected member returned on foot and distributed the hay from the tail gate. The task was about completed when suddenly he discovered both his feet were inexorably stuck in the mire. In the meantime Mrs. Member decides that boy’s not going to hang me up on this night and she departs with the family car for the party. Our unfortunate member now had one section ol hay left, so with great skill be maneuvered a heifer over and dropped the bait in front of the eating end. With a desperate lunge i at the other end he latched ontc i the startled critter’s tail. There was a strange sucking sound I audible for some distance, as both heifer and member arched int< orbit. In a single lightning refle? the cow’s four feet left th< ground and our good member trailing as second module in the blast off, was snapped clean ou of his boots, only to make ai unscheduled splash down, face first in the darkness. With drear} steps he found his darkenee house, stripped off his grim; clothes and slept til morning. As the guests finished thei dinner, President Gilber Lawrence turned the activitie over to the Master of Ceremonies L. J. Davis, who is a professions , photographer of no ordinar ability. The drawing for the doo prize was won by T. C. Barr or This is the fourth consecutiv year T. C. has come fo rward to claim I'.he pri/,c. Non* 1 could doubt the f airness of the s “lection as the sixty witnesses s.aw the honored president drav. ,1 card from the bag held by L. J. However rumor did have it that what Gilbert pulled out was “the” card and not “a” card, but that was oidy an evil concept a nd the show continued. T. C. w.as requested to stand for a picture* with Mr?.. Barron, and the flash was immt'diately developed into a poster she photo in L.J.’.s magic box. Now it was T. (.'. who questioned the result- the shiny head was OK but where did those whiskers come from, and there was a furt her question as to the stature of the pictured likeness of his helpma te. In difference to the public, the picture is on exhibit at T. C.’s store in Culpeper. A three-minute contest among the ladies, t esting their knowledge of musical compositions bearing girls name s, resulted in a tie bet we en a guest from Spotsylvania, Mrs. Sponcer Roberts, wife of the District Governor, i ind Mrs. Dottie Settle. In a 30-s econd sudden death play-off, Mrs Settle won the floral tab le " piece from the speaker’s U .ble as her prize. The evei ling was further high lighted by the folk singing of Nan and Chuck Perdue, professional ! entertainer i presently living in 'Woocfvil le The singers ! accompanic ?d by Chuck’s guitar gave a group of numbers appropri ate for love and ladies. In a half hour of such vocal exertion singers tend to go dry, but half way thiough their repetoire some | well meanir. g individual had illy i timed the nmioval of the water ! from their table. Sensing the problem, both the Master of ICert-monies and the entertainment chairman sprang to relieve the situation. Finally just as the crowd wa s joining Nan and Chuck in “Goodnight Irene”, L. J. returned with two glasses of water and T. C. w ith the pitcher. Something, how'ever, seemed strangely inordina te with their coordination, because L. J.

Memorial gift funds may be sent to Mrs. Roberta Spalding Flint Hill, Virginia . Memorial Gift Chairman Rappahannock County Today’s Woman Judy Burtner Extension Agent, Home Economics Facts about Laundry Products containing Enzymes. Two types of laundry products 'containing enzymes are on the mar ket. Some of these are to be used in pie-soaking. The others are a regular detergent with an enayme added and maybe used for a pre-wash soak or during the regular wash cycle. The pre-soak products are not designed to compete with laundry products already on the market; they are not designed for general laundry use or as substitutes foi any products homemakers are now using. Instead, their function is to loosen soils and stains that homemakers have considered impossible to remove. These stains include ground-in-dirt on collars, cuffs, socks, blood, grass, baby formulas or other stubborn food. Enzymes will aid in removing old stains, as well as fresh ones. Products containing enzymes decompose organic soil, such as blood and egg. The organic holds other soil particles together in much the same way that mortar holds bricks together. The organic soil also acts as glue to hold the glued together particles onto the fabric. When the enzyme goes to work, it breaks down the organic soil and thus loosens the dirt, making it easier to remove in the regular wasn cycle. Action of the enzymes is specific - that is, they act only on the soil, not on the fabric. Ordinary bleaches remove or discolorize stains, but their action is not specific; bleaches act on the fabric, as well as the soil and stains. These new products which call for pre-soaking before the regular wash cycle take into consideration the fact that enzymes act slowly. Because they need time to do their job, the soak should be at least 30 minutes long and may be as long as overnight. Except for fresh protein soils, the water should be hot (not over 150 degrees F.); for fresh protein soils, lukewarm water is better because it does not tend to set the soil while the enzymes are trying to remove it. Soaking can be done in the laundry tub, the sink, a bucket, or the washing machine. At the end of the soak, the water should be extracted from the clothes and the clothes given a regular wash in Ladies Nightplacing the tumblers on the table then bumped into T. C. who was just about to place the pitcher. This encounter in due sequence threw T. C. off balance who with considerable dexterity righted himself after falling over L. J.’s chair. Despite the overtone or undertone of disturbance, the Perdues smilingly continued their singing— no interruption, just like the song about Casey and the Strawberry Blonde-" And the band played on”. In succeeding days there has been considerable talk around town regarding the possible discrepancy between the fire department’s use of water and whatever the Auxiliary furnishes. Nevertheless, from Rev. Tony Layman’s leading in the singing of “America” to the final salute to the flag, the annual Ladies Night of the Amlssville Ruritan Club was packed with satisfaction and good fellowship.

Fresh water is recommended because the water for soaking will have cooled considerably and it may have become quite discolored from the dirt which was released during the soak. The enzyme containing products can be used on colored, as well as white fabrics. Directions warn against using on silk or wool, however. The detergents containing enzymes are for regular use in washing or for soaking the clothes prior to washing them. The enzymes remove less soil in a ten minute wash than in a 30 minute soak; however, repeated use of a detergent containing enzymes can prevent a build-up of protein soil or can gradually remove protein stains. These new products are welcome additions to the supplies available to homemakers to keep the family laundry clean and stain free. DATES. . Woodville H. D.

Local Teenagers Spend $600,000 An. Rappahannock County’s teen-agers have never had it so good. They have an affluence that goes far beyond anything their parents could have imagined at their age. The unprecedented amount of money at their command, estimated at no less than $600,000 in the past year, went for the whole gamut of personal items and leisure-time activities that are so important to them. And it went fast. In addition to what t hey spent themselves, they exerted a strong influence on family purchasesfrom food to furniture and from carpets to cars. All of which increased the importance of the teen-ager as a consumer in the eyes of the manufacturer and the.' retailer. The spending figures were based upon survey?; and studies made by the Institute of Life Insurance, the Youth Research Institute and others. They found that the 25 million teen-agers in the United States had an income of well over $20 billion in 1968, which averaged out to $800 eachi, with the older group getting mo re than that and the younger fry 1 ess. For the 750 teen-agers in Rappahannock County,, it. added up t6 $600,000 in the year. According to national figures reported by tb.e Rand Youth Poll, boys and girte in the 16 to 19 bracket averaged $18.90 a week, while those i n the 13 to 15 group got about $f».70. Some of them earned part of this money by doing odd jobs after scho>ol and during summer vacations. The rest came from their wee'id y allowances. How was the money spent? Among the older boys, the biggest item was movies and dating, which nicked the bankroll for a whopping $4.25 a week. Next i.n order were auto and gas, $3.2 fj, clothing, $3.10, and candy, ice cream and cigarettes, $1.6'6. The girls spent their money differently. Personal grooming was in the top spot. This took $4.60 per week. Clothing was KIRKLAND'S 1099 N.

Vs. Agric. Conservation Program Benefits Conservation-minded citizens, vhether town or country -esidents, will find much to nterest them in the Agricultural Conservation Program (ACP) for L970, according to H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committee which administers the program for the county. “Public benefits as well as assistance to farmers were emphasized by Secretary ol Agriculture Clifford M. Hardin when he announced the 197C ACP,” said the ASC Committee Chairman. Major points of the 1970 ACP demonstrate this concern for the public interest: Encouragement of enduring conservation practices. Addition of basic authority foi pollution-abatement practices. Maintenance of a reserve func for special projects wit! total-community benefits, foi beautification-conservation, anc for p ol 1 u t i on - a ba temenl measures. Provisions encouraging participation by low-incomi farmers. In discussing the principa points of the 1970 ACP, Mr Barksdale said that currently about 87 per cent of ACP monej is used for permanem conservation practices. “We hop< to raise this percentage stil higher,” he said. To help achieve this aim, th< Federal share for temporary practices, such as installation o seasonal or annual vegetativi cover, will be limited to 30 pe Marsh Urges Study On Potomac Basin Rep. John O. Marsh, Jr., has urged Congressional approval of broadened research authority for the Interstate Commission on the Potomac River Basin. In a statement to a House Public Works Subcommittee, Marsh noted that the Commission had been bound by the compact creating it nearly 30 years ago to studying only pollution problems of the Potomac and its tributaries. “A burgeoning population in cent of cost, except for low-income farmers. In general, cost-sharing for enduring practices, such as putting in perennial grasses for permanent cover, will continue at a 50 per cent rate. About one-fourth of the national ACP funds already are used for installing permanent vegetative cover. Some of the conservation practices include construction of farm and wildlife ponds, putting in trees and shrubs for forestry purposes or to prevent erosion, and improvement of existing cover on farmlands and livestock ranges. All of these have direct and indirect benefits to the public. Water quality is improved for all downstream users when permanent cover helps stop water siltation where where it starts. Ponds and reservoirs also help prevent stream siltation and floods, provide wildlife habitat, and often serve public recreational uses. Trees and shrubs beautify the countryside as well as help prevent soil erosion. Practices for abatement of both water and air pollution will deal with a problem of increasing national concern. All state and county ASC Committees have been asked to call ACP development meetings to submit recommendations for pollution-abatement practices. The State ASC Committee will hold part of its ACP fund in reserve for these measures. Mr. Barksdale also mentioned that the ACP fund reserve includes money for special ACP projects. “Special projects are designed to help an entire rural community through farmer-community conservation planning and action where unity is needed to solve a major problem.” Most farmers are well aware of the value of conservation work on thfeir farms and the part ACP can play. It is hoped the general public would come to be as interested. “It’s everybody’s tax money that is used for ACP. We would like everybody to know ACP is administered with the interest of the public in mind.” Under ACP the Federal Government shares with fanners and ranchers the cost of installing conservation measures on agricultural lands. A principal requirement is that conservation benefits must accrue in the public interest. Generally the Government shares about half the cost of the approved conservation measures, but low-income farmers may be eligible to receive up to 80 per cent of the total cost. In 1968 more than 951,000 farms installed conservation practices under ACP. The average Federal assistance per farm was $210. Cfu666 H. L BORDEN LUMBER GO.

Marvin M. Sutherland, director of the Virginia Department of Conservation and Economic Development, is the present chairman of the Interstate Commission on the Potomac River Basin. Soc. Security Notes Social Security can pay $50,000 or more in benefits to the family of a younger worker if he dies or becomes severely disabled before his children are grown. Social Security District Manager, Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, disclosing the figures today, said she doubted that one in ten Americans realized how much protection social security provides young families in the form of disability and survivors’ insurance. In fact, social security is so much a protective umbrella for the young that one out of eight people who receive social security benefits each month is under 18. The number of children getting social security checks, she noted, has increased from 54,648 when the cash benefits started 29 years ago to over 3 million at present. Make that figure 4-'A million, if you add in youngsters wjio are receiving benefits between ages 18 and 22 while they are attending school. Why so many young and middle-aged beneficiaries? The law has changed over the years, Mrs. Crumpton pointed out, to protect families faced with loss of income because their breadwinner We Can Supply All Yonr CULPEPER BUILDING & SUPPLY CORP. Qtoae VA5-8S83 Culpeper, V; is too disabled to work, as well as the families where the breadwinner has died. A million and a third disabled workers under 65 are now drawing social security disability benefits to offset income loss, and payments are going to an additional million of their dependents. The average monthly payment for a disabled worker’s family with children is $235, she declared. When a worker applies for these benefits he is also referred to his state rehabilitation agency so that he can be considered for possible rehabilitation services. These services can help many disabled people to go back to work, if not at their old jobs, at new jobs for which they have been specially trained. Social security often pays money to the rehabilitation agencies to help meet the cost of rehabilitating disabled workers. JOHNNY HORIZON HAS A TIP FOR YOU! Call UT For ; Shengas Corp.
