Late summer in the country FRUIT, VEGETABLES, cider, honey and baskets are now in full display at the shops and stands along Route 211, up the mountain towards Panorama from Sperryville. Produce from Rappahannock’s famous orchards and gardens has begun to roll in and county residents, as well as a never ending stream of tourists from metropolitan areas, are eager to share in the bounty. Above, Roy Swindler rares back in his chair under smoked hams and baskets at the fruit stand he’s opened every summer since 1928, back when the highway was a dirt road. And at right, Paul Alther stands beside his fresh produce, all grown right at home in Rappahannock. □

Entered as Second Class Mail at the Post Office-in Washington, Virginia. Subscriptions (in advance) $4 in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $5 in Postal Zones 5 thru 8. MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Telephone Washington €75-3349 On ‘expertise’ PUBLIC RESPONSE has been forthcoming to the Board of Supervisors’ complaints about compulsory programs dictated by state and federal governments, as indicated by the last meeting of the Board and by the Letters to the Editor. Since comments are coming in, we feel no shyness about putting in our own two cents’ worth. For instance—It seems to us that there is a difference in “expertise” and “bureaucracy,” and that the difference should be kept foremost in mind at all times, by both public officials and members of the public. It is one thing to be competent in a given field, to be able to quote chapter and verse in support of this or that program or policy, and it is quite another thing to order, force programs and policies simply because you have the authority to do so, or because you have better access to the purse strings. Thus, it is one thing for an educational bureaucracy to attempt to try to convince citizens that something like a kindergarten program is desirable, and it is something else for a state or federal agency to order the implementation of such a program, no matter what local conditions may prevail, or what local attitudes may be. WE FEEL THE SAME way about various welfare proposals, road projects, regional planning concepts, water “reclamation” schemes, and all the other functions which are controlled so heavily nowadays by an entrenched, and growing, bureaucracy. Let us all hope that the day will never come when any and every arbitrary program can be forced upon all citizens just because this or that bureaucracy thinks it’s best. A citizen’s right to say no is, after all, one of the things that this nation is supposed to be all about. Attempts to subvert those principals don’t always come in the guise of televised, dramatic, traumatic White House cirses; sometimes the danger has a more subtle, insiduous guise. It starts with programs that must be adopted by a rural county like Rappahannock, whether it is clearly desirable or not, and then... Pool party August 30th Editor: When school let out the Rappahannock Recreational Association had only 19 or 20 members. Since then membership has increased to 30 or 40 persons. Every Wednesday except this week meetings are held for the membership at South Wales but only the same 9 or 10 show up every time. 1c ttrtaaaausaflf trans r portation? If it is, that can be worked out, I’m sure. I now urge you to join the R. R. A. not just for its own sake, but for yours also. August 30th there will be a pool party for our members, and all who want to join, so be there please. Timothy Metzinger, Chairman of Public —- Relations and Publicity “Close-ups” We must emphasize that in the Ciose-Up contest only one entry from a household is allowed. We have received more than one from a single household on several occasions. The name drawn from our entries last week was that of Mrs. Linda Cook of Flint Hill and she will receive a free year’s subscription to the Rappahannock News. Others to correctly identify the object pictured, as tie clasp, included Frank Coffey m, C.W. Dodson, Tom Taylor, E.M.

Shackleton, Fran Zinn, Randy Jenkins, Nannie Weaver, Mrs. C.C. Zinn, Donald Murray, Charles Smoot, Benjamin Atkins and Hope Hudson. Letters to the editor Education is needed Editor: In a recent editorial in your paper, farming was acclaimed as the best industry for Rappahannock County. The editorial asserted that a farm valued at $100,000 usually required only single family services and therefore less tax dollars. Where did you get such information? With Rappahannock as an example, I dare say that such a farm would have tenant houses with families who receive such low wages that they are forced to apply (and are probably eligible) for such “services” as Food Stamps and even public assistance. To illustrate the point even more, your coverage of the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors meeting of August 1 points out that General Noce (local farmer) evidently pays his farm hands so little that the father in the household is forced to work at night in order to provide for his family! I- think General Noce’s farmhand has the right to. feel that he spends enough in tax and should have a voice in where it is spent. However, in considering a kindergarten for Rapphannock, you and the Board of Supervisors should bear in mind the very example which the General gave (unknowingly) — that unless the children of the county are educated they will be relegated to low paying labor jobs and when they become disabled in their middle years with a family to support they will have no choice but to apply for public assistance. For my part, tax money is better spent on giving people basic skills and a chance for a choice of livelihoods than as subsidy for low farmhands. An Avid Reader ‘Lay* opinion not needed Editor: Re your last front page story concerning education, kindergartens. Education is a profession. However, unlike the professions of medicine and law, it is influenced by city or county governing bodies that are not specialists in the field. It is also influenced by vocal citizens and citiznes who wield attention-getting prerogatives by virtue of their rank, money or large land holdings. Knowledge of the condition in the VERY complex field of education does not, apparently, weigh as heavily as opinions of the respected layman. I, myself, am uncertain as to the wisdom or folly of building rooms to accommodate kindergartens. But I would much rather see our weekly paper devote prominent space to an education professor, author, statistician,' etc. to help us decide, rather than to a layman. The emotional “don’t raise our taxes’’ gambit used to decry kindergartens lacked logic and expertise beyond the Sunday supplement category. Increased services call for increased taxes. Your average “little man” will not be hit as hard (proportionately) as the large land holder. The ploy of hauling a farm employe before the Board of Supervisors to demonstrate the need not to raise taxes is absurd. I suggest that if General Noce is so concerned over the cost of living increase that has forced his employe to have a grueling second job, he raise his salaries.George Graham Peola Mills

A few weeks ago someone left a "gift” of four old kitchen ranges. The items were left along the side of the road just out of sight of all houses. Recently, someone (the same someone?) added some paneling and structural lumber removed after a small house fire. This "gift” was placed atop the kitchen ranges, and near some discarded overstuffed chairs, old clothing, and a 50-gallon drum which had apparently been used as an incincerator. The latest addition to the collection is the hand-painted sign on a charred piece of wood. Bad check warning issued VIRGINIANS have been warned of passing of counterfeit cashier’s checks drawn on Richmond National Bank in amounts from less than $100 to over $600. The counterfeit operations began with his lated incidents in the Tidewater area, then moved to northern Virginia, and are expected to spread to other sections of the state. Bill Tinley, vice president of Richmond National Bank advised that the counterfeit checks are being reported with increasing frequency and already $5,000 has been lost by Virginia Merchants who cashed the 13 checks. He added that the check protector or check writer .used on the counterfeit checks had “RNB” printed to the left of the amount on the check. The checks are grayish-tan. “Please alert your local retailers to this problem. It could prevent great losses. Also, please urge any person who is asked to cash one of these checks to notify police immediately,” said Tinley.D ITS ANNUAL MEETING TIME for Northern Piedmont Electric Cooperative Membership on SATURDAY, AUGUST 17 Culpeper County High School Auditorium Registration 9 : 30 - 11 : 00 a.m. Entertainment 10 : 00- 10 : 45 a.m. Meeting starts promptly at 11: 00 a.m. Free lunch served to Registered Members and their families Come _ Bring your family - Take an active part in your Cooperativei Annual Meeting

NYC aids youths DURING the summer months—the traditional vacation period—millions of young Americans look for work. Many do not find summer employment because they lack the necessary skills, occupational restrictions created by their young age, and scarcity of jobs. This summer, the Neighborhood Youth Corps came to Rappahannock County for the first time to help create employment for youths 14 to 20 years old of lowincome families. The federally-funded program pays the salaries of youths to work at county, state, or federal organizations and non-profit civic organizations. The employers must provide the necessary job training and supervision. Rappahannock County Schools, Rappahannock Comty Library, Rappahannock County Welfare Office, and the State Highway Office at Washington, Va. are the co-operating agencies in the county. SO FAR, eight Rappahannock youths have been enrolled in the NYC summer program which is administered by the Virginia Employment Commission of Culpeper. The goals of the program are “to assist youths by encouraging them to maintain or resume their education, providing them with financial assistance, and enhancing their employment potential. ”□ VH5WT0WN CASTLETON MRS.

In brief the regulation states: All horses assembled at a show, fair, race meet, or other such function in Virginia must be accompanied by a report of an official negative test for equine infectious anemia conducted within twelve months prior to such event. All horses consigned to a sale or auction (except for slaughter) in Virginia must be accompanied by a report of an official negative test for E.I.A. within six months prior to such event. All horses that are imported into Virginia must be accompanied by an official interstate health certificate which will indicate that all horses covered by such a certificate have been officially tested and negative for E.I.A. within the past twelve months. Equine Infectious Anemia is a virus disease that infects horses, mules and asses and may be acute or chronic. The virus is found in the blood, tissues and secretion of affected animals. The most frequent method of transmitting the disease is through the- transfer of blood from an infected to a susceptible animal. This can be done by the bite of stable flies, mosquitoes, etc. and the use of contaminated hypodermic needles and surgical instruments. Rappahannock Bred Steers Top Show in Maryland— * Rappahannock bred steers continue to make a reputation for their growthiness and conformation. At the recent Maryland, Carrol County Steer Show, where 101 steers were shown, top honors went to 4-H’ers showing steers that were purchased last fall in Rappahannock. r Angus steers bred by Newbill Miller were overall Grand Champion and Reserve Champion of the show. One of Jim Massie’s steers was Champion Hereford, ' and an Angus steer from Dick Latham’s herd was first place in the middle weight class. □ Doubles Whistlecup Tennis Tournament THE 25th Annual Rappahannock County Labor Day Invitational Amateur Mixed Doubles Whistlecup Tennis Tournament will see 36 partnerships competing this year. “The tournament also will see new champions,” said Mrs. N. K. G. Tholand, chairman of the event “since last year’s winning combination of Rowland and Katherine Evans will be broken up.” “Because they were new to the county,” Mrs. Tholand said, “the committee waived the rule against husband-and-wife partnerships. It was a mistake. They mopped up on everybody. Now that they are old Rappahannockers, the rule will be strictly applied. This year Mrs. Evans will be assigned to a mediocre male player and Mr. Evans will be given a really rotten female. It should even things up.” Preliminary roundrobin matches will begin at 10 a.m. on Sunday, September 1, on the courts of Mrs. Tholand, Judge and Mrs. Raynor Snead, Mr. and Mrs. I. L. Parrish, and Mr. and Mrs. James J. Kilpatrick. Final matches will begin at 11 a.m. Monday on Judge Snead’s court. A PICNIC lunch will follow for the players, members of their families, and invited guests. Mrs. Fanning Baumgartner, coordinator for the event, said that not more than four person will be permitted to bring baked beans. □ Kramer named vice mayor PETER KRAMER, recently elected to the town council of Washington, was elected by his fellow members to the seat of vice mayor at the Tuesday evening meeting of the council.

Main St. Luray, Virginia Phone: 743-4551 Si Sez I THINK IT WAS Buddha who said: “When all the fires of passion have burned themselves out, Nirvana is attained.” A group of elderly people were discussing the inevitable process of growing old, and since it is unavoidable, we accept it. I asked the question: if someone found a way to rejuvinate our aging bodies, wouldn’t we beat a path to his door? Omar, the venerable wine-o, poses this question: “Love, if you and I could with HIM conspire To change this sorry scheme entire, Would we not scatter it to bits And mold it nearer to our hearts desire?” Was he thinking of his lost youth? Possibly these lines were written by an elderly poet: “There are ashes of love on the hearth of my soul, But no embers gleam; the fires have grown old. Such feathery ashes, so white and so cold.” The Bible says: “He who waits on the Lord shall renew his strength, he will rise up on wings like an eagle, he shall run and not be weary, he shall walk and not faint.” It does not say in what utopian state this will occur. There is a sect extant who promulgates this thought: In the very near future the state of aging will be arrested, those who have grown old will become young again. That listens good, but why would God reverse a process just to please that particular sect? I think I prefer believing, as I have for many years, that we shall become young again—in another life. Yes: “I shall build up my house anew, With stronger walls and roof and flqpr. A stronger building, and more true, Than served my soul before.”□ FOR SALE—424'international diesel tractor with KD fork lift. Good condition. $3500. Wade H.
