Signs of Better Living in Rappk. Judging from the number of big-ticket household accessories that Rappahannock County families have been acquiring during the last few years, living standards are on the rise locally. Their purchases of dishwashers, air conditioners, stereophonic equipment, cars and other high-priced equipment have been climbing steadily since 1969. It is directly attributable to the income gains chalked up in the period by most local families. The extend to which ownership of automobiles and household appliances has increased is based upon a special sample survey made by the Department of Commerce and data from other sources. titeir ngures show that there is a direct relationship between a family’s earning capacity and the amount of expensive durables that it amasses over the years. In Rappahannock County, on the strength of these findings, no less than 28.2 percent of the local families are the owners of two or more cars at the present time. This compares with 20.7 percent in 1960. There has been a marked increase, also, in the number of families with television sets. This has been due, to a large extent, to the growth of color TV. Approximately 88.0 percent of the households in the local area now have television sets, as compared with 72.6 percent in 1960. Similarly, more homes are equipped with washing machines than was the case then. Ownership in Rappahannock County’s regional area is placed at 68.0 percent. This relates only to outright ownership. Actually, the proportion of families that have washing machines available to them is greater than that because many rental units are equipped with them. The survey,' hlch presents data on a national nd regional basis, also shows an increase in the proportion of families with clothes dryers, hi-fi sets and freezer units Home ownership has also been on the rise All of it has been mide possible by incomes that have gone up sufficiently, after absorbing the increase In living costa, to provide these extras 1 r 1 #3iiu The piano-duo, Whittemore and Lowe will perform Friday evening in Culpeper when the first of a series of Community Concerts will open the season. Community Service Thanksgiving Day A Community Thanksgiving Day Service with the Baptist, Episcopal and Methodist churches participating will be held Thursday, November 26 at the Flint Hill Methodist Church at 10 a.m. The Rev. William Harrison, pastor, of Reynolds Memorial Baptist Church, Sperryville, will be the main speaker. A nursery service will be provided.

Members of the board of directors come from Orange, Madison, Rappahannock, [_ Fauquier and Culpeper, t" During ' The course of their . remarkable career, Arthur Whittemore and Jack Lowe have run up a record of achievement in all media open to duo-pianists, an achievement that has brought them to the pinnacle of prestige and popularity. They are r universally acknowledged as , music’s pre-eminent two-piano r team. i A measure of the high esteem i in which they are held is the ‘number of great symphony : orchestras with which they - appear as soloist, and their l phenomenal success on radio, i television and in recordings. Their astonishing record of ■ re-engagements and their somewhat staggering average of I 68 concerts per season have made them household names the length I and breadth of this continent. These two men were born in the American West and received > all their training in this country. , Mr. Whittemore is from Vermillion, South Dakota, Mr. Lowe from Denver. They met as students at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York. They made a notable debut in New York’s Town Hall, but their exciting career was immediately interrupted by four years of Navy duty. They subsequently returned to the concert field, and quickly rose to the position of eminence and favor which they hold.

High School December first opens a new basketball season for the Rappahannock County Panthers. There are changes in coaches, players and opponents for the coming year. This article and one to follow next week will outline some of those changes and give you an idea of what to expect and look for as the season begins. Two new coaches will make their debut when the Panthers take the floor the first Tuesday in December. Taking over the reigns of the varsity team will be Dean Hahn. Coach Hahn is in his second year at Rappahannock, having taught last year without coaching. He is well known to many in this area by his athletic career at Virginia Tech, where he lettered three years in baseball and also by his play in Valley league baseball, playing three years for the Luray Colonials and last year for the Shenandoah Indians. Taking over the junior varsity is John Toth, in his first year at Rappahannock Coach loth comes to us from the University of Alabama He participated in the track program in junior college The Virginia High School league, of which Kappahanntx k ( is a member, has changed its method of classification for this year. In the past years, member schools were classified according to size and designated by Group 1, Group 11 or Group 111 from largest to smallest. Rappahannock was classified Group 111, the smallest schools, but because there are no other schools of that size near by, we have been grouped in a district mainly Group 11 schools. This year, VHSL member schools are grouped by Class A, AA, or AAA depending on number of students. A Class A school has between 0 and 600 students. Class AA schools may have between 601 and 12001 students and Class AAA schools■ may have any over 1201 students Rappahannock, with less than 400 students, qualifies for Class A J competition. However, there still ! are no other schools in the area of that size, so we are again grouped in a district with Class AA schools. For the lust two years, liroadway and Turner Ashby, who should have been In a district I with the largest schools (over 1200 enrollment) have been in ■>ur district. District 10, because here were no other schools of heir size for them to play igalnat i This year, the districts have been reorganized and we are in a new district, Skyline, without Broadway and Turner Ashby. In their place, are Madison County and William Monroe of Greene County. These changes should help equalize the power In the coming season. In addition to the two schools above, we will be participating against Luray, Stonewall Jackson of Mt. Jackson, Central of Woodstock, Page County, Elkton, Montevideo and Strasburg. 1970 71 Basketball Schedule Nickname; FinUm Colon: Navy Blua and 0«M Coach: Vanity - Dean Hake Junior Vareltv - John Tflttfe SUrUngTlnir: Junior Vtnllr * 6:10 p.m. Vanity - SOOy.m.

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Va. Telephone: WASHINGTON 675-3349 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Class Mall at the P. O. at .Washington, Va.Subscriptions (in advance) $3.00 in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.50 East coast; $4.00 mid-west; $4.50 West. LETTERS to EDITOR L A Editor Rappahannock News Washington, Virginia Dear Sir: Many public spirited citizens of Rappahannock County have condemned the proposal to erect a high-power electric utility line across our County. To allow the despoiling of natural resources in this manner is unconscionable. It is analagous to pollution of our streams by sewage or of the air we breathe by commercial smoke and gas. It is incredible that in an era when all thinking citizens are profoundly concerned about the pollution of the environment that such a proposal could be made by a public utility company, which supposedly is concerned with the welfare of the community. It is self-apparent that the economic interests of the company have motivated this proposal. Such shortsighted and selfish interests must be combatted by al progressive citizens with the greatest possible vigor. Sincerely yours, John F. Potter, Md. D. Mrs. Sarah C. Latham Editor, Rappahannock News Washington, Virginia 211 By-Pass Can Kill You Some observations and recommendations to proper authorities. It is already obvious that the new 211 By-pass endangers the I safety and welfare of people1 coming and going to and from > Washington. 1 1- Note that all three access' points to and from Washington have* installed very short de-acceleration lanes, far too short to take care of 60 mile an 1 hour traffic. These should be: twice as long. 2- There is no evidence that acceleration lanes are to be provided at any of the three! access points. How can one get into heavy 60-mile an hour traffic from a standing start? and without great risk to self and the oncoming traffic? 3- Vision at the eastern access point both coming and going is greatly obstructed by a high bank on the old mill property near the Rush River. Why cannot that bank be cut back for better vision? Some recommendations to the proper authorities of Rappahannock and the Town of Washington, i.e. for the general safety - i.e. for the general welfare - i.e. to save lives and property. 1-Prevent the first accident by petitioning the Highway Department to install longer de-acceleration lanes, and to install acceleration lanes at all three access points. 2. To avoid intersection accidents petition the Highway Department to install blinker warning lights at all three access points. 3-retition the Highway Department to place adequate signs for a reduced speed limit from the Rush River to the western access point to 45 miles per hour. Two other items, not related to safety, should be sought from the Highway Department - (a) to mark with proper signs, the old 211 through Washington as Alternate 211. (b) to place the standard Historical Marker (for Washington) one at each end of Town. I understand that (a) is already under consideration. If the proper authorities can secure these additions to the By pass for the safety and welfare for all who must come and go, and do it now, we can be sure that that first accident will be far less likely to happen. Why wait for someone, maybe you, to have to pay the price with his property and maybe his life? Item: Secure these safety measures now. P.S. Some of these may be in the works now, but if not why not? If the Washington Monument were laid lengthwise on the floor of the grand concourse of Union Station In Washington, D.C., it would lack 205 feet of spanning the great hall, the National Geographic says. The monument is 656 feet/tall, the concourse is 760 feet Ijsng. Good luck, everybody, Wm. M. Carrigan a concerned resident. Panther Tales By Chris Fox Senior privileges, class meetings, pompon routines, and basketball practice seem to highlight the events this week.

PLEASE HELP! | New Books The Green Man, by Kingsley Amis - The Green Man deals with a number of matters -sex, for instance, as well as mortality, and faith but the supernatural dominates this brilliant and hypnotic work, which is at once characteristic of Amis and unlike any of his other books. 'n>e1Crotte*>and the Laird, by John McPhee - This book is a depiction of a small Scottish island, its terrain, its history, its legends, and its present people (two in particular • the crofter, working out his existence in this last domain of the feudal system, and the laird, who is English and owns the whole island and everyone on it). I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, by Maya Angelou - Superbly told, with the poet’s gift for language and observation, and charged with the unforgettable emotion of remembered anguish and love - this remarkable autobiography by an equally remarkable black girl from Arkansas captures, indelibly, a world of which most Americans are shamefully ignorant. J. M. Barrie - The Man Behind the Image, by Janet Dunbar - As far as the world knew, James Barrie’s life was one long success story. The son of a poor Scottish weaver had come a long way. He was rich, famous, a friend of the great, the author of a long list ol perennially successful plays. Pew people knew the lonely, unhappy man behind the mask.

W. Latham of Viewtown celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary Sunday with a dinner at the home of their son-in-law and daughter Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Doyle at Amissville. Mr. and Mrs. Latham were married November 14, 1906 and at that time the bridegroom was sick in bed With pneumonia. Pictured with them is their great-granddaughter Candy Todd of Silver Spring, Md. The Lathams are members of Amissville United Methodist Church and the oldest members of Little Fork Methodist Charge. Others present for the dinner were Mrs. Elwood Dean, Mrs. L. B. Stuart, Miss Phoebe Green, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Latham, all of the Amissville area and Mrs. James Smith of Chevy Chase, Md. Wheat Research To Be Aided Rappahannock County wheat growers are directly involved in the new Wheat Research and Promotion Act, according to H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Committee. Secretary of Agriculture Clifford M. Hardin has said, “Domestic utilization of wheat in human nutrition and industry can be encouraged by the recently enacted Wheat Research and Promotion Act. The prospect is quite promising that research can develop new products and greater utilization of wheat.” Financing of the program under the new law is to come from proceeds of the 1968 wheat export certificate pool not claimed by eligible farmers. Local wheat growers whose share of the export certificate pool amounts to $3.00 or more will receive notice directly from Rappahannock County ASCS Office telling them what their share., of the pool , is and explaining the options each grower has. A producer may choose to receive his share of the export certificate pool or he may leave it in the pool to finance the research and promotion program. Wheat growers in Rappahannock County, entitled to receive less than $3.00, will not receive a special notice but they can nevertheless claim theii share of export certificates by filing a written request for payment with the county ASCS Office. Each producer’s share of the export certificate pool will amount to about $.56 for each $100.00 of 1968 domestic wheat certificates earned. Wheat growers will have until December 25 to notify their county ASCS office of their choice. Mr. Barksdale pointed out that the county office is still in the process of getting the notices ready to go out to wheat growers, and none have yet been mailed. The 1968 wheat export certificate pool of about $4.2 million is the result of legislation passed several years ago that provided for excess collections of export certificates to be distributed pro rata among wheat producers. Wheat exporters are required to buy export certificates for any lot of wheat exported whenever the U. S. price is less than the world price. Whenever the U. S. price exceeds the world price, an export subsidy is paid to the exporter to make the wheat competitive in world markets. The world market price for the 1968 crop of wheat was at times higher than the U. S. price, and an export certificate pool accumulated. The original law provided for this pool to be divided pro rata among wheat producers. For most producers, it would be a payment of only a few dollars - less than a dollar, in fact, for many. The new law allows them either to receive their pro rata share, or leave it in the pool to be used in research and promotion of U. S. wheat.

While we are on the subject of crosbreeding, we have a 4vell prepared objective six page 1970 publication on “Crossbreeding Beef Cattle.” This publication was prepared by Curtis Mast, Ike Eller and Dr. Bob Carter and is based on five years of crossbreeding experiments in Virginia. A phone call to our office 675-3619 will have this publication in the mail to you. For what it’s worth, my opinion of crossbreeding, is that a carefully planned and executed crossbreeding program, such as those presently being carried out by H. L. Manwaring and Randall Updike offer many advantages. Looking at the other side of the coin, indiscriminate, random mixing of cattle is a giant step backward, offers nothing and will be harmful to the future of Rappahannock County’s cattle business.

Homeowners Hit By Inflationary Costs Inflation is an infernal economic infection, especially when it gets too personal with your private bank account. For instance, try to buy a new house today for what it cost only a few years ago. You’ll get an answer just as soon as the laughter subsides. A new spread that was tagged at $20,000 five years ago is unavailable today unless you are willing and able to shell out around $30,000. Why? Because land prices and construction costs have jumped higher than that cow that got curious about the moon. House repair costs, too, have jetted into the wild blue yonder. Today, you pay more and more for less and less when you go shopping for a home. A good aspirin for those headaches is your homeowners insurance policy. The amount of relief you get is measured by the coverage you arrange for in your policy. Like this: Suppose when you bought your property, say for $20,000, you took out a policy that insured it for 80 per certt of its value, or $16,000. But today, that same property is worth $30,000. Well, that 80 per cent coverage you had means your $30,000 house actually is insured for only the same old $16,000. What to do about it? Simple. Just up-date your policy so it will cover 80 per cent of the current val^e, or $24,000. If you discover yow have a hole Tn your sox,’you patch it up. Why not do the same with your homeowners insurance policy? Talk it over with your insurance agent. Not the matter of a hole in your sox. The hole in your homeowners insurance policy-unless, of course, you have already mended this hole by bringing your policy up to date.

Also, members agree to enter the progeny of all bulls and all cows in their breeding herds into the program for weighing and grading as calves. BCIA provides Calf Data Sheets on which to list pertinent data to be returned to the BCIA office. The information, coupled with the results of weighing and grading each calf at the farm, is digested into such facts as the calfs herd number, its sire and dam herd numbers, its sex, feed code, age, weight, average daily gain, adjusted average daily gain, adjusted 205 days weight. Also evaluated is the calf’s tye score and its index.

It Is most important that the items to be sent be placed in a good sturdy container. These containers should be strong enough to retain and protect their contents during the course of normal mail handling. Boxes or cartons commonly used are corrugated or solid fiber board, Kraft board and chip board for ■mailer items. The strength of the cartons required will depend on the weight, size and nature of the article shipped. The outer containers should be the proper size to hold the items shipped plus enough space for cushioning material inside. Too large containers; the contents will shift. Too small, containers will buldge and possibly burst. Anytime you have more than one item in the container, cushion them so they will not damage one another. Excelsior, flexible corrugated fiber board, or felt are commonly used for heavy items. For lighter items, shredded paper, tissue paper, cotton, and clothing are used. Your type of cushioning material will depend on the size and nature of items mailed. Your outside wrapping should be at least equal in quality and strength to heavy grocery bags. Strong fiber board cartons may be wrapped and tied with twine or rope. Wrapping paper of good quality may be used; but if there is destruction of the paper, the name and address may be lost. Use your box itself, if it is a good; shipping retainer. Use reinforced tape even though the cost is greater and the package will be less vulnerable to failure. Strong twine may also be used for a closure. Be certain you have the correct address, APO number and zip code. Now for some suggestions for the type of container to be used inside the package. Coffee cans, shortening cans with reuseable plastic lids, air tight plastic bags and items wrapped in alumium foil are good travelers. The following items may be sent overseas: fhiit cakes, chocolate chip cookies, tuna, salmon, olives, dried and canned IJAttefIL JSwnudl ..ELJUexander. Harold T. Hawkins, Mrs. A. I. Lohman, J. B.

If in doubt about the nullability of an article, ask your postmaster. When mailing cookies remember these important points... 1) Choose a cookie that has good keeping quality. Avoid nuts that may become rancid, frostings that may become sticky or stale, and chocolate that may discolor In heat. Good travelers are fruit bars, rocks, ginger mounds, honey peanut butter cookies, oatmeal cookies, snickerdoodles, raisin oatmeal bars, and applesauce oatmeal drops. (You should be able to find most of these in cookbooks that you have available.) 2) To pack cookies, use a metal container or if necessary a sturdy box. A three pound shortening can works well.) Wrap cookies in mositure-vapor proof paper individually. Use popcorn or crumpled paper to fill in any air spaces. Use corrugated paper to separate each layer. Before wrapping in sturdy outside paper, wrap the container in corrugated paper. 3) Mail by the quickest means and have package marked perishable. new Arrivals Mr. and Mn.

Twenty-third Psalm Rev. Ulysses S. Brokenburr Hopewell Baptist Church Has been our help in ages past and our hope for years to come. It is a familiar portion of the Old Testament that has been frequently repeated but seldom understood. However, when the seeds of its meaning are sown into depths of our hearts and minds, we shall reap a degree of comfort when the time comes for us to pass through the valley where murderous men and thieves are lurking. In times like these, when Christians are frustrated and young people are turning towards the use of pot and other narcotics in search of their identity, the Twenty-third Psalm tells us who we are and that we cannot cope with the devil - or our base selves alone. It also says that as long as death is within the equation of life, mankind must have a God. The Twenty-third Psalm can be used fittingly in the times of great sorrow, but its author, David, was up against a situation that we are in today. He had to lead his herd of sheep through a valley where vicious men lurked and it was then and there that he realized that his know-how as a shepherd and his old wooden staff were no match for the danger confronting Social Security Offers Protection Young fathers who feel they have lots of responsibility and littlfe financial security for their families if they die or are disabled may have more protection than they think, according to Mrs. Hazel F. Crumpton, social security district manager in Winchester. “Social security can help support not only the worker, but also his wife and children if he is disabled,” she said. “And it can provide monthly checks for his family if he dies.” “Each month nearly 2'/j million disabled workers and their dependents and over 3 million surviving children and widoweq mothers get social security checks,” said Mrs. Crumpton. Amounts of the checks depend on the worker’s average earnings under social security. Disability benefits for a worker with a wife and one child range from $96.00 a month to a maximum of $434.40, with the average about $273.00. Most young men whose annual salaries are in the $7,500 range and above would be eligible for benefit payments close to the maximum mm, so ne cried out to ms uoa, saying: “Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.” The best of us and the worst of us comes from within according to the will of our minds and actions. God being the best within us will show up as soon as we put self aside and realize that we cannot escape, God’s Father Time and God’s Mother Nature. New laws, surveys and computers cannot solve our today’s problems. Our comfort will come when we start sowing seeds of love and good will individually. A cheery good morning and a sincere goodnight are seeds worthwhile in times like these. Here is a story of sowing and reaping that may help. A young man came to a man of ninety years of age and said to him: “How have you made out to live so long and be so well?” The old man took the youngster to an orchard, and, pointing to some large trees full of apples said: “I planted these trees when I was a boy, and do you wonder that now I am permitted to gather the fruit of them?” We gather in old age what we plant in our youth. Sow to the wind and we reap the whirlwind. Plant in early life the right kind of a Christian character, and you will eat luscious fruit in old age, gather these apples in eternity Talmage. 1.

Survivors benefits for a widow with two children range from a minimum of $96.00 a month to about $434.40, with the average about $292.00. “A worker under 24 needs only 1V4 years work under social security to have disability protection. Between 24 and 31, he needs to have worked only half the time between 21 and the time he is disabled to qualify for monthly checks for himself and his family,” she noted. “Benefits in the case. of a breadwinner’s death are based on even more liberal standards. A man 28 or younger needs only 1V4 years of work for his family to qualify for survivors benefits. Mrs. Crumpton suggested that young people interested in learning more about their social security protection should request the booklet Social Security for Young Families from any social security office.

Wild Turkeys Als< Around Thanksgi Washington - Wild turkeys, too, get nervous around Thanksgiving. Unlike their domestic cousins, the wild birds stand a chance to escape the dining table. Frustrated hunters claim the wild turkey has radar vision, sonar hearing, and jet speed. In one turkey season in Wisconsin, 1,100 hunters beat the woods and bagged a grand total of 18 birds. As an old Indian saying goes, “Any brave can kill a deer; it takes a chief to kill a turkey.” Just a few years ago, the unsuccessful hunter could blame a shortage of birds, but the turkeys have made a remarkable comeback, the National Geographic Society says. Turkeys Were Plentiful When the Pilgrims celebrated the first Thanksgiving in 1621, they drew on a “great store of wild Turkies.” William Wood, an early Massachusetts colonist wrote, “Sometimes there will be forty, three-score, and a hundred in a flock.” The great store was not destined to continue. Overshooting, clearing of open woodlands, and a loss of staple food by chestnut blight drove the wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) from its original northeastern range. Stocking, managed hunting, and habitat improvement have helped bring the bird back. In the West it has become established beyond its former range. The other day I read this quote: “The true opposite of love is not hate but indifference. Hate, bad as it is, at least treats the neighbor as a THOU, whereas indifference turns the neighbor into an IT, a THING.” We say we love our neighbors, do we actually. I am sure that few of us hate our neighbors, but do we really love them? Aw, come now, cross your heart, do you? A writer has said: “We have all sinned and come short of the glory of God.” Perhaps the greatest sin of my life is the sin of omission or indifference. If a circumstance is thrown across my path that I have to deal with personally, I dispose of it to the best of my limited ability. I’m afraid I am like the soldier who expressed himself thusly: “I never volunteer ter nuthin, an’ I obey orders under protest.” Well, almost. Perhaps that is what the poet had in mind when he penned these lines: It is not the things you do, -dear, It’s the things you leave undone That bring so many heartaches At the setting of the sun. H.

This year game managers believe that 1,250,000 roam 35 states. The birds are important enough to rate a National Wild Turkey Symposium, a meeting that in 1970 reached a raucous climax as dozens of wildlife biologists demonstrated their favorite turkey calls. Hunters lure the shy birds by sounding keow, keow, keow, a flock’s assembly summons. Sometimes they imitate the female’s mating cry on a call made from the wing bone of a hen turkey. Veteran turkey hunters fashion their own calls. A Virginian made his from a hollow wing bone attached to 12 inches of rubber tubing that fits into a homemade tin horn. It gobbles magnificently. Colorful Mating Ritual The National Geographic Society’s book, “Water, Prey, and Game Birds of North America,” described the mating ritual of wild turkeys: “A big male, chest padded with fat to sustain him through the weeks of display, stands in a forest opening and gobbles. Other toms come running, wattles gorged with blood, heads turned bright blue, white, and red with excitement. All gobble, competing furiously for the attention of the hens. The tom that started the uproar may try to drive off the other males, pecking their heads bloody. “Morning after morning, the prideful promenade continues. Tails fanned, wings dragging the ground, the males strut, flaming cravats quivering. Finally captivated by the big male’s performance, a hen throws herself at his feet ... In his excitement the cock may trample his harem of three to five hens before mating with them.” Fortunately, this performance takes place in spring, long before Thanksgiving. At Jhe end of the mating season, the wild gobbler is lean and thin, and, according to aficipnados, his flesh is so rank it isn’t fit to eat.
