How Powhattan County
Got Name From Indians

French and Indian is Virginia's
Powhattan county-French IN its
early settlement and Indian In its
name. Neither name has anything
to do with that French and Indian
war in which George Washington
won those figurative spurs which led
to his choice as commander In chief
Of the Continental armies and to his
eventual title Of Father Of His
Country.
The French settlers were Hugue-
not refugees from religious persecu-
ton, for whom special arrangements
In the New World were made by
their Britannia majesties william
and Mary in 1899, writes Elwood
Street in the Richmond Times-DiS-
patch. These early French settlers
are memorialized In place names
and still persisting family names
and in the romantic name given to
Virginia Route "A, which runs across
the northern part Of the county, the
Huguenot Trail.
The Indian name was a product
Of the Revolution. The county was
organized by the general assembly
In It'll. Before the Revolution coun-
lies had largely been named after
British royalty, nobility or places.
The Revolution blotted out the de-
sire for such signs Of allegiance to
the mother country. Powhattan was
the chief Of the Powhattan Confed-
eracy and the Indian who made the
most powerful impression upon the
first jamestown colonists and their
historians.

Lengthens Ruled Grouse Season

Conservation Commissioner Lith-
cow Osborne has announced a
heightened season on ruffed grouse
In 1912 as the result Of two independ-
ent surveys which show the birds to
be more plentiful this year than last,
and perhaps more so than in any
recent year.
The ruffed grouse season in New
York was fixed by law for q uni
form four-week season over the
state until last winter, when the leg
islature authorized the conservation
department to fix the season direct
ing that it be adjusted as nearly as
practicable to the woodcock season
established by the federal govern.
ment.
In accordance with this intent. the
new season is fixed at 4S days In the
northern and central parts OF the
state and 81 days in the southern
zone, embracing Long Island. In
each case the opening date CORE
spends with the opening of the wood
cock season.

first one in there when he was
about ID months and still remen1-
bers where the goodies are.
At last the short line arrives,
we board it for home. On the car
we saw Louie and Dorothea Mason
and Harold Parker. Harold got
off at Avon and inquired if Butch"
didn't want to get of and see Uncle
Elmer and without waiting for an
answer picks him up bodily which
started light battle between the
two. We arrived home too late
for "Butch" to spend the night
at Mama Yeiser's as he had
planned, and so ended our Sunday
afternoon stroll at % degrees be-
low.
Halle @. Brown Notes: A new
Camera Club was organized last
Monday night with Is members.
Officers for 1913 elected were John
Banks, Pres; Louise Hargraves,
Secy., and Charles Hargraves,
Treas. Individuals owning cameras
explained how their camera oper-
ated. This club will work toward
an exhibit later on in the year.
Mr.. Frank Slaughter has been
secured as a volunteer worker with
the Air-Cadets and class in handi-
craft will be organized this week
to be under his supervision. Class
in show card writing will be held
for boys and other persons who
are interested in this field.
The Halle basketball teams were
victorious this week in two of the
three games played. The Big "5"
defeated the Phyllis Wheatley 52-38
with Stanley Tabor, former all
city player, scoring 81 points. The
Halle team trailed at the first
quarter, 1872, but poured on the
heat in the second and third quar-
tiers to trample the Wheatley team.
Chef Harris was also one of the
main scoring cogs Friday night.

we wandered on up St. Anthony
Avenue and stopped at Lydia Jones'
house to visit Mitzi. Lydia greeted
US at the door inquiring as to how
we were standing the cold weather.
Course, we told her we were just
as warm as toast and didn't know
it was cold at all.
We found Mitzi comfortably
domiciled in her and mothers
apartment where she was writing
letters. Our next stop was at the
Emmett Galloway's where Butch"
had to madly investigate all of
"Bev" and "Corky's" Xmas toys
and found belated Xmas present
for himself, A Tony Sarge book of
surprises and stories. In the book
was a penny and sucker which
caused light riot among the three,
and Mama Helen had to dig up
some candy for all three to settle
the one sucker problem. We
met Joe Lyel and George Brooks,
who said they were transacting a
little business. We filched several
postage stamps from George and
Emmett (since a postage stamp is
as hard to find on Sunday after
noon as Jap in MacArthur's TENT.
Our Sunday meanderings then
took US to the T. ]. Jackson's home
for few minutes, and then on to
visit Mrs. Freda Harris, who is re-
covering from a sick spell, having
been confined to bed for the past
three weeks. We met Mrs. Harris
daughter-in-law, Tanner, who is
visiting her from Kansas City.
Last stop was the Nifty Cafe
where we had chicken dinners and
movies and music. Butch" en-
barrassed me by insisting on ask
ing the proprietress, Dorothy Boyd,
what that red stuff was on the po-
tatoes (paprika) and what kind of
dessert that was she gave him to
the amusement of the other dinner
customers. Among the other din
ner customers were Marcel Thomp-
son and neighbor, Bob Graves, who
Butch" knows are grand guys be-
cause of the coca colas they bought
him and the number of candy bars
he had deposited in my muff. Marcel
was out making his last rounds be-
fore taking off Monday night of
this week for the "big foot country"
to visit his baby brother who is
going into the army this month.
Said he hadn't seen him since he
was the size of Butch" The
little half of the family received
another belated Xmas present from
the proprletress and made date
to go out for chow mein and the
theater next Saturday. He in
formed his hostess that he would
be wearing his Sunday suit and to
pick him up at Mama Yeiser's house
and told her to write down the
street number so she wouldn't make
no mistake.
Leaving there our last stop was
at the Majestic Drug Store, where
Johnnie helped US watch for the
short line. Looking around for
Butch" saw him perched up on
one of the stools in deep CONVERSE
ton with Fields, which ended up
with another sucker. He got his
