A hearing on this is set for June 7 in connection with the regular June meeting of Xhe local legislators.

SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington 675-3349 Library status ALL’S WELL THAT ENDS well, but ours is a tale of woe, at this stage. The end can still be better. Amazing progress was made in a short time when a public library for Rappahannock was organized in 1964. This facility has been stocked and staffed and developed smoothly into a useful addition for the cultural development of the people. The library has grown and prospered with the help of individuals, clubs, groups and foundations. The book selection has been enlarged and service improved over the years, and recently a heating and lighting system, both much needed, were installed. These are tremendous assets, BUT the operating funds have been depleted. In the ensuing years, contributions have not J>een as steady and foundation grants declining, because many people have misunderstood the situation and failed to contribute as they had previously. The financial status of the library is shaky.. An urgent plea therefore goes out to all persons who have an interest in the county and are loth to see a good thing wither. n A DP PII A TS By RAP OWINGS li/iri Ulin A U Extension Agent IF YOU WANT TO SEE the different makes of f Big Package Haymaking Equipment in action, now is the time to do it. Ted and George Triplett are busy turning out 1,000 to 1,200 pound big round untied bales with their Hawk-Bilt. H. L. Manwaring and K. P. Grigsby have their new Vermeer operating smoothly and North Red Oak Farm is dotted with big, round, twine tied bales weighing up to 1500 pounds. . . You will still have to travel out of the county to look at the Heston Stak Hand. The Heston makes a rectangular compressed stack that weighs up to 2500 pounds. Fleetwood Farm in Fauquier and Victor M. Dupont in Loudon both have Heston’s in operation. If you are interested in further information on Big-Package Haymaking, stop by the Extension Office. We have one copy of a Purdue University publication that gives an overview of the hardware that’s now available, methods of feeding and economics to consider. ANOTHER INNOVATION in hay making new to Rappahannock is the Centapede. This is a type of fluffer or conditioner (Dick Latham says it reminds him of a helicopter) that speeds up field drying time. Stop by Tommy Fastham’s or F. J. (Chicken) Welch’s if you are interested^ in seeing the Centapede in action. Keep a close look out for army worms in sod planted corn and hope to see you at the Endurance Trail Ride this weed-end. ■ Barns Allen Richard Brown of Sperryville correctly identified the barn picture last week at that owned by William Lane on Route 522 south of Sperryville, formerly the Meade Fletcher property.

Rappahannock library faces leg,n times By MARY JAMIESON THE Rappahannock Library is in a real jam, all because it appears to have done so well. “Right now,” says Raymond Williams, a Regional Director of the Virginia State Library Association, “the Rappahannock Library stands to lose State aid, Federal aid, one-fourth of its county support, much of its support from charitable foundatiops and some of its private donations. “The irony,” continues Mr. Williams, “is that everyone in its county believes their library is a fat little institution and needs no help.” New and Used Cars and Trucks PIEDMONT Chevrolet-Oldsmobile, ln<. 814 N. Main St. Phont 825-2161 Culptptr, Va. IN TRUTH the Library is a very lean cat. Here is a tick-off of the hard financial facts. 1. The Library has received ZERO from the Helen Fuller Estate auction and expects to get no moneys that can be used for operating the library. 2. Last year the Library’s 4th of July Flea Market cleared $5000. Every cent of this money has already been put into the library building in capital improvements of lighting, heating and shelving. This investment was absolutely necessary because it <was found people won’t work or read in an interior if they have to wear goolashes and fur-lined eyeglasses in order to Stay warm. No way! And three or four baseboard outlets just couldn’t give adequate lighting for day and nighttime library usage. 3. The Marsh Foundation has cut its usual contribution from $1000 to $500 and the Armstrong Foundation, which used to give c When do you need a Realtor'?

Samuels Mrs. Jo Bigelow Don Ober RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY Ray T. Cannon W. A. Millar Panorama Raalty Luthar B. Stuart up to $500, is giving noth* ing because they feel the Library is well off. 4. In ’71 and ’72 the County allocated to the Library $2000 yearly support. This amount enabled the Rappahannock Library to qualify for State aid because the County was contributing tax money equal to 40 cents per county resident. The County budget now proposes that the contribution in 1973 be cut to $ 500, which will be less than the 40 cents per person minimum requirement. The Library will, therefore, lose its present State aid of $604 for yearly Purchase of new books. The Library will also lose the chance of getting up to $2400 per annum in 1975 when it is expected that the Virginia General Assembly will make possible full funding, instead of the present 22% funding, of the $4,500,000 in the State budget allocation for Library Assistance. 5. The response to the Rappahannock Library’s recent request by mail for donations has been disappointing — in fact, $500 less than anticipated, because, once again, it’s felt the Library is on easy street. THE losses to the Library, to date, because of a mistaken image of prosperity add up to: Loss of Foundation contribution, $1000. Loss of private donations of approx., $500. Cutback in County support, $500. Therefore cessation of State Aid, $604. Total loss, $2604. This would reduce the Library’s projected income for the coming year to: BllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllltllllllUIIUIIIIIUUIIIIUIII County support, $1500. Town of Washington, $100. Donations from Foundations, $500. Private donations $ 200. Total dependable income $3300. The Library payroll alone, to keep open the minimum number of hours (20) and days (5) per week, required by the Virginia Stile Library Association, amounts to $3600. All other expenditures, (besides book purchases,) including insurance, maintenance, janitor and yard service, utilities and library supplies amount to $1200. THESE bare facts are placed before the citizens of Rappahannock, so that they will know the precarious state their library is in and help it exist through their support. The Elementary School children use the Library, the High School students research their papers with Rappahannock Library reference books, resident adults use the library for instruction, information and pleasure. Everyone used the Library 32% more last year than in any previous year, proof that now there’s a growing need for a public . library in the County.

Pastor of First Baptist Church is the Rev. R. P. Pringle. Si Sez THIS LITTLE BIT of whimsy was in a current magazine— Every time I pass this church, I pay a little visit So when at last I am carried in, The Lord won’t say, “Who is it?” It seems that at crucial times most of us want some sort of affiliation with a church; some at christening, at weddings and especially to be buried from a church. If not from the church building, by the official representative. Have you ever heard of a ‘heavy church’? Guess it means that the preacher never deviates from the Holy Writ, that his message is a monotonous monologue of the same old story. Is there a better story? I’ll admit that some preachers do not present their message in an interesting manner and with as much power. Well, there is power in gasoline but I keep going back to the same old pump when I need more. I hope we never run out of either kind of power. And did you see the TV program about The Devil’s Triangle? There is some kind of power there, as well as other freaks of nature around the world. Could one say that those things are controlled by an evil entity? Some think so. And what about the universe folding back into the original mass? There is a theory that in the beginning there was an explosion from some great mass of matter, that the universe was expanding. This was supposed to have happened about six billion years ago. Now, someone has advanced the theory that the original BANG has passed its potential and all matter is returning to its former mass. I like to think that God is still in His heaven, that all is right with the world. But I think His presence can be felt more in the church than elsewhere.
