Rappahannock News, December 10, 1970

MATH library Chris Vest, small daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James M. Vest of Huntly, watches the snow balls bounce around Santa Claus in a table decoration made by Mrs. Helen Claypool. A representative of Potomac Edison, Mrs. Claypool gave a demonstration here last week on Christmas decorations and lighting and the use of small home appliances. A fish bowl filled with water and a small Santa figure, plus some mothballs, made an attractive table decoration which would be suitable for a child’s party. Results of Activity Interest Survey Noted In September approximately 1600 questionnaires were sent out to county residents, entitled the Rappahannock County Activity Interest Survey by the Extension Service and civic minded residents. The purpose of this survey _was to determine county residents* interests on a personal, county l and general level; also their hobbies and free time activities; and whether the residents would be willing to share interests with other county residents. It was felt that this information would be helpful in working with county people from the Extension standpoint and also helpful to civic clubs and organizations. Approximately 50% of the questions were returned by mail and gathered by interviewers. The findings of the survey are as follows: The majority of the questionnaires were returned in the 50-59 age group and also over 60 age group. There were varied occupations compiled from the questionnaires with the greater majority of persons employed outside the county. There was also a large percentage of retirees noted in the results. In the section relating to interests, answers were varied, especially on personal and general level. On the county level many people stressed concern over schools, law enforcement, lack of industry in the county, road conditions, lack of medical and dental facilities, and lack of recreational opportunities for adults and youth. In tallying up hobbies and free time activities of county residents, hunting and fishing led the list, followed by reading, various crafts and music. Thirty-three percent of the residents indicated they would be willing to share their interests with other county residents, 23% indicated they would not, with 44% stating maybe or leaving it blank. It is hoped that the information gathered will be helpful in developing further Extension programs in working with the needs of the people. Also, a list of resource persons has been compiled from the questionnaire who have indicated an interest in the Extension programs. Miss Judy Burtner, Extension Agent would like to thank county residents who returned their questionnaires and thank interviewers who took their time to participate in the survey by telephoning and visiting. If any individual or group would like more specific information concerning the survey, contact Miss Burtner at the Extension Office, Washington, Va. (675-3619).

County Library Book Fair Successful The Rappahannock Library with its warm and gracious atmosphere was the scene last week of a Book Sale which turned out to be highly successful, both moneywise and otherwise. Those selling and those buying enjoyed the exchange and have expressed their satisfaction with the project. New friends were made for the library and old friendships renewed. And added to that will be the joy for the readers of the purchased books. All those connected with this year’s pre-Christmas Book Sale are to be congratulated for a job well done. County Hunting Accidents Up; Down In State Rappahannock chalked up its second hunting accident of the season on Thanksgiving Day. One accident had occurred near Amissville during squirrel season making the rating here high statistically. Game Warden Irvin L. Kenyon said in the four hunting seasons that he has served in this county, only one minor accident had occurred previously. On Thanksgiving Day near Flint Hill, Robert Burke of Catlett sustained a superficial wound on his lower stomach from the rifle fire of Doug Calhoun of Front Royal. Both men were deer hunting and were each unaware of the other’s presence. A deer was spotted; Calhoun shot at it and the deer ran into a brush and honeysuckle patch. Calhoun fired the second time into the brush in which Burke was hiding dressed in rather camouflaged clothing. The bullet ripped through his coat, struck his belt, went through outer and underclothing and grazed his abdomen. The wound required seven stitches administered by Dr. Dennis P. McCarthy in Front Royal, and Burke was released. A total of 35 hunting accidents have been reported in Virginia so far this season, five of them fatal which is below the number reported by this time last season, reports Game Commission Safety Officer J. N. Kerrick. Last year’s total of 69 did set an unwelcome state record. Twelve of the accidents involved hunters mistaken for game and nine were self 'inflicted. More than half occurred at short range in light to open cover and under good visibility. Twenty-seven of the mishaps involved shotguns, five high powered rifles, two smallbore rifles and one a handgun. Groves Enters Plea Second Degree Murder Walter Clifford Groves, charged with the fatal shooting of Thomas Haines, several months ago entered a plea of guilty to second degree murder in Rappahannock County Circuit Court Tuesday morning. A pre-sentencing report will be made at the January term of circuit court which opens on the 11th.

Virginia's Personal Income To Hit All-time High Richmond—Despite the economic downturn, Virginia’s total personal income is expected to hit another all-time high of nearly $16.9 billion in 1970 according to estimates by the Virginia Employment Commission. J. Gordon Gifford, economist and editor of the VEC’s “Economic Indicators,” also estimates that based on preliminary data for the first six months of the year, Virginia’s rate of increase for personal income from 1969 to 1970 will be 9.4 per cent, compared to 7 per cent for the nation as a whole. Gifford explained that he was unable to convert his overall estimates of personal income into per capita figures because of the lack of final census figures on population. With “so many strong trends, inflation versus unemployment as an example, running counter to each other,” Gifford said, it is hard to estimate the aggregate totals. However, Gifford’s estimates of personal income for 1969 for the five states plus the District of Last week the RCHS Cheerleaders headed a pep rally prior to the opening basketball game of the season. However, with all of their efforts and the matching enthusiasm of the student body, the teems have had a poor season beginning. In three sessions on the hardwood, the Panthers hsve 'been outdistanced and the Junior Varsity has experienced one victory. Rappahannock dropped both games to Madison last Tuesday on the home court and did likewise in Luray Friday night. Luray was the state champion team last year in their division. When the Panthers met Strasburg Tuesday, December 8, it was a slightly different story, with the competition keen and a close victory for Strasburg; 60-58. The Junior Varsity defeated the Strasburg Juniors which are coached by T. A. Fleetwood, a former elementary teacher in Rappahannock, Score on that one was 49-42; Harry Jordan, a freshman, has been a consistent high scorer, but William Deal was high point man of both sides in the game with Luray. Columbia turned out to be right on the money. He was off about 3 per cent in his estimates for South Carolina and the District of Columbia and closer on the other states. Gifford estimates that Maryland with 9.9 per cent will have the highest over-the-year growth rate from 1969 to 1970 compared to 9.2 per cent from 1968-1969, but will still trail Virginia slightly in total personal income with about $16.85 billion. North Carolina will remain a close third in total personal income ($16.4 billion), but with a growth rate of 9.2 per cent, down from 10.2 per cent last year, the gap between Maryland and North Carolina will actually widen slightly. For 1970, South Carolina’s rate of personal income growth is estimated at 8.4 per cent down from 10 per cent; the District of Columbia is estimated at 8.2 per cent, up from 6.9 per cent; West Virginia’s is estimated at 7 per cent, the same rate as the nation as a whole. Hr'.!A* 'ijf Board Agenda Thursday Included Refuse Contract, Road Summary, Warden s Salary With all six representatives present for the December meeting I of the Rappahannock Board of Supervisors held Thursday, the . first order of business was one < fowl claim submitted by Dog Warden Jack Bruce. This was ; approved and payment set. I I Mr. Bruce made a request to [ the Board for an increase in his > salary, saying with according | increases in the cost of living, he . had never been advanced likewise. Quoting figures of salaries in adjoining counties for similar services, his was at an all-time low. Mr. Bruce stated that he had from five to thirteen dogs in the kennels most of the time, and they must be kept for at least five days before disposal can be made, i He said from December 1, 1969 i until November 30, 1970 he had ; handled 174 dogs and made I untold calls which netted < nothing for they can be elusive 1 creatures. i After detailed discussion, the motion was made to increase his to $2,400 per year. Most Board members felt that Mr. Bruce understands dogs and handles them well. He also is familiar with the county and can work this job well with his other employment.

Mrs. George Lawrence, Mrs. S. W. Riley, Mrs. Mason Hitt and Mrs. F. L. Bowey had not missed a meeting during the 1969-70 year.

Letter To Editor Madam Editor: There’s no doubt about it, we are all “Living Better Electrically.” Just a short time when the power fails and we know how dependent we have all become on electricity for, heat, water pumps, refrigeration, lights, even time stops. So, we have learned to overlook the wooden poles, transformers and wires which follow the highways, cross our fields and hook to our houses bringing welcome comfort and convenience to our lives. However, it is hard to overlook the high-voltage transmission lines needed to carry power from the generating plant to the area where the customers are with those big steel towers spaced along an unsightly slash in the landscape. Even at night, your car radio will let you know it’s there and common sense will let you know that it will be there for the comfort and convenience of future generations too, an enduring legacy of ugliness. Are transmission lines necessary? Since high-voltage needs big, well-spaced wires, they seem to be. Is a transmission line across Rappahannock County necessary? You can bet that power company officials are prepared to tell us at the re-scheduled public hearing, $************^^ December 30th, that it is. They are prepared to make the investment and ask us to live with it forever. Rappahannock residents and landowners should also be prepared either for the inevitability or with an effective defense against any such desecration of our natural beauty which God gave us all to enjoy and preserve. We must learn the facts and as a concerned community, demand that the power company give conclusive proof of the necessity for crossing Rappahannock County, make the power company responsible to those people they would offend. This responsibility rests upon every one of us. The Rappahannock Courthouse will be open at 8 p.m. on Friday, December 18th, for an informal discussion designed to provide the information necessary for a reasoned community response. A representative of the power industry, if available, will be welcomed but most of all the comments, opinions and ideas of those present. Without the interest and participation of everyone now, we will soon see steel towers in front of the Blue Ridge Mountains and have no answer for our children’s question, “Why are those towers and wires there.

Public Warned of “Vampire Blood” The Virginia Department of Agriculture and Commerce (VDAC) today issued a warning to consumers not to purchase or allow children to use a red-colored paste called “Vampire’s Blood.” Severe illness and nausea may result if the product is eaten. Five second grade children in the Richmond area were recently made sick after playing with, and presumably eating, “Vampire’s Blood.” The product is a red paste, comes inn one-ounce tube, and is designed so children can play vampire by smearing the blood-colored material near the comers of their mouth or on their skin. “Vampire’s Blood” is made by Imagineering, Inc. of Phoenix, Arizona. The product may be sold almost anywhere, including candy stores, drug stores, and 5 and 10 cent stores. VDAC inspectors are looking for the product on Virginia store shelves and will issue stop sale orders on the product pending further investigation.

Donated glasses are routed by the Lions Clubs to Old Dominion Eye Bank, which then sends them to a Lions eyeglass classification center. The lenses of all donated eyeglasses are then measured optically and filed according to prescription measurement. In this way, the Lions are able to maintain lenses of almost every possible prescription measurement for immediate shipment to competent agencies requesting them for patients who cannot afford needed eyeglasses. Eyeglass frames which are in good condition or in need of only minor repair are also used in this program. The free eyeglass program is now in operation under Lions sponsorship throughout United States. Many eyeglasses are also shipped to a number of foreign countries. Those wishing to donate old eyeglasses to this Lions project are asked to contact any member of their local Lions Club. Donors not acquainted with a local Lion can get the name of the president of a nearby club from their Chamber of Commerce. at the next class meeting.

The picture actually is even brighter. That one-fifth-those 20 pennies out of every dollar-buys so much more than did the 25 just ten years ago. Compare the foods you buy now with the foods on the market ten years ago and you will see what I mean. You will find you are buying time, energy and higher quality. You are buying time! How long would it take you to match a T. V. dinner from scratch? I am not much of a cook but I am willing to bet it would take pretty close to an hour. Compare this with the minute or two it takes to pop the T. V. dinner in the oven and the 20 to 25 minutes to cook it. This is perhaps an exaggerated case but our food dollars can buy time and lots of it. Then, these 20 pennies buy energy. Remember all the potato peeling, the bread knfeading, the apple butter stirring, and the like that we used to do? Today, we may buy our potatoes peeled, our bread ready for the oven and our apple butter in jars. It is a tremendous saving in energy, paid for with your food dollars. It is energy you may then spend on other things you like or have to Rehabilitation High For VA Disabled Virginia ranked ninth in the nation in numbers of disabled persons rehabilitated in the fiscal year that ended June 30, 1970, according to information released today by the Rehabilitation Service Administration (RSA) of the U. S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW). With a total of 9,139 disabled persons returned to gainful employment by the Virginia Department of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR) and 444 rehabilitated by the Virginia Commission for the Visually Handicapped (VCVH), the rate of rehabilitants per 100,000 population was 205. Virginia ranked fifth nationally in visually handicapped citizens rehabilitated. Virginia ranked second in number of rehabilitants in HEW’s Region III. The state ranked above Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia and below Pennsylvania. According to RSA, more than 260,000 disabled Americans were rehabilitated during fiscal year 1970. This figure, up 11 percent Jver the previous year, is the do on flowers, with the children, on community activities or on household duties. We are also told that our diets have been up-graded, even though we are spending a smaller share of our dollars for food. We are eating chops and more proteins and less starches and carbohydrates. In other words, we are now getting more expensive foods for a smaller part of our income. If you are like me, every so often you sigh and wishfully recall the “good old days of good eating.” Most of this is daydreaming. When I look at yesterday and today and compare them realistically, I find our food dollars buy better food today. They buy extra time and energy. And it takes a smaller part of our income to do so.

Don W.

The month of December once more is here For us the saddest of the entire year. For just one year ago today on a Wednesday Y ou left without saying goodbye. Then came that fateful Saturday when we stood at the open grave And watched them bury you, mother, who we loved so, but couldn’t save. We knew we couldn’t awaken your silent soul in peace. So our hearts were placed beside you as slowly we walked away. The main link is missing from its chain. Although we are parted for a while, it’s written we shall meet again. Not lost to those who love you, not dead but just gone before. You live still in our memory and will forever more.

I We didn’t know when we were hav- 1 ing so much fun That this day would be your last . one. You bade no one a last farewell Or even said goodbye. You were gone before we knew it And only God knows why. We often sit and think of you and remember the day you died. It hurt so much to know we could not say goodbye Before you closed your eyes No one knows our loneliness, a few have seen us weep; We shed our tears with an aching heart while others are asleep. There is a grief that finds no comfort, There are wounds that do not heal. The sorrow buried in our heart is too deep to reveal. We cannot bring past days back when we were together But secret tears and memories will always be with us. For you will live in our thoughts forever. We do not know the pain you bore We did not see you die We only know you went away r And did not say goodbye.

Let’s call it supper; and I lope it will not be the last supper >f this kind for me - and for the )thers who shared this delicious epast. Across the table from me at a young mother with her >aby. The baby pounded the able with a spoon while the nother gazed at it with adoring ;yes. I remarked to a lady sitting >y me that the scene reminded ne of a poem I have. I would like o share it with you readers. It is >y Katherine Taylor, the title is: HEAVEN 1 am too little for a grand ?ternity. I want in my tomorrow things I >ee And things I’ve seen - that Faded all too soon. Instead of angel voices I would hear a spoon Beating upon a table; see a laughing face, Warm, glowing, living, without, please God - death’s cold, set trace. Instead of golden streets, I’d stand within A doorway I know well. Is this a sin To want my kitchen door, sagging of stoop; To want instead of Heaven’s Host, a group Of little folk, all hot and tired from play? If so, please pardon me, dear God, but - short was yesterday. I am too earth-bound for a grand eternity. Sometimes I almost laugh at plans I make.
