Leather Processing Proposed For M-l Zone By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Ha|»|»«hann<M'k Vh*< Staff rilrr Witold Kuncewicz’s request to add processing of light leathers to uses allowed by right in an industrial district met with cooperation from the Rappahannock planning commission at last Wednesday’s meeting. “I don’t see anything wrong with it if we can work out the mechanics," said Newbill Miller, adding that thje amendment would have to include a definition of light leathers. He also emphasized that precautions will have to be taken to ensure that the leather processing doesn’t cause pollution. Otherwise, he said, “it’s a very good industry’’ for Rappahannock in that it utilizes the county’s natural resources. Kuncewicz said that he wanted to use property already zoned industrial next to the old Sperryville Co-op for the leather processing plant. He explained that his operation wouldn’t be a heavy commercial tannery like the plant in Luray. “There’s a distinction between light and heavy leathers,’’ he said, giving skins of reptiles, goats and small animals such as skunks, rabbits and squirrels as examples of light leathers. “Light leather would exclude hides," he said. Suit Filed Over Campground Another round of court action over the Nationwide Pentecostal Evangelistic Association’s campground on Route 622 east of Rock Mills js under way. December 22, Tashington attorney David tonick filed for a writ of ^mandamus against zoning administrator Evan McNear, the Rappahannock supervisors and the NPEA. In action taken on behalf of neighboring landowner Alvin Grigsby, Konick is asking the ■ circuit court to (1) find current usage of the N PEA’s property in violation of the county’s zoning laws and (2) compel the supervisors and McNear to enforce provisions of that law allegedly violated by the NPEA. In a recap of the two-yearold controversy over the Castleton campground, Konick notes in the writ that the NPEA’s 9.05 acres are part of the Lindgren-Noce tract rezoned from agriculture to residential subdivision several years ago. According to Konick, “the one and only use’’ allowed in 4 a residential subdivision under the county’s zoning ordinance is residential. He goes on to state that Lindsey Savage, trustee for the NPEA, applied for a building permit on March 3, 1979, to erect a 50’ by 100’ tabernacle, 40’ by 50’ i re nee hall and 28’ by 40’ restroomstorage building. Approval was given for construction with the permit issued and signed by Patti Alexander, secretary to the zoning administrator. According to sections of the ordinance cited by Konick, the zoning administrator is allowed to issue , building permits “only when they are in accord or harmony” with ordinance provisions. Building permits granted “in conflict with the provisions of this ordinance shall be null and void,” he quoted. In the writ of mandamus, Konick pointed out that the NPEA’s building permit was issued by the zoning administrator’s secretary to whom the supervisors “had (Continued on Page 11) “If I bring you a snake skin, what would you do with it?” asked E. P. Luke, supervisor representative on the planning commission. Kuncewicz replied that the skin would first be pqt into a lime solution, then taken out and washed, next put into a tanning solution and finally dried and glazed. In reply to questions, he said he has no plans to manufacture leather items such as wallets and belts although expansion into that type of operation would not be impossible. “How are you going to handle pollution? What are we going to say to people worried about the Thornton River?” asked Luke. “I have all the answers,” Kuncewicz replied. He said nothing would be dumped into the river except drinkable water. There will be no solid waste, only liquids, with all chemicals precipitated out and saved to be reused before disposal of the liquids, said Kuncewicz, noting that he previously worked in a similar operation in 1948 and ’49. He added that the plant will employ only three or four people. "It’s not a thing you can visualize getting big.” “What will people bring to you? Not dead animals?” asked Luke. “No, no, no—just skins,” said Kuncewicz. Most will be fozen, he said, for storage in refrigeration units. Allen Stokes asked if a settling basin will be used. Kuncewicz answered that one might possibly be required to remove salt from liquids before disposal. “I don’t have a ready answer (to salt removal) but I know there is an answer,” he said, adding that he is willing to meet any requirements the planning commission stipulates. “There won’t be any smell?” David Thornhill inquired. “None whatsoever,” according to Kuncewicz. Miller asked if the applicant would have to comply K. with Article 13’s requirements on screening, site plan and pollution controls should light leather processing be added as a use allowed by right in an industrial M-l zone. Commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner described the ordinance’s language as "vague” but still held that a “logical reading" of the county’s regulations indicates Article 13 would apply. In considering Kuncewicz’s request, he continued, the issue before the planning commission is whether light leather processing is "an appropriate use for any land in Rappahannocjc County zoned M-l.” Luke noted that wood processing, a use with high pollution potential, is already allowed in M-l zones with a special use permit. “This operation is some degree under that.” “It’s not as dangerous as petroleum storage,” another permitted M-l use. Miller added.

EPA had already granted $39,750 for preparation of the plan. Ordinance Review Begins In January By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock N«*w» Staff V ritcr With help from Richard McNear, planner for Fauquier County, the Rappahannock planning commission will begin in January the long delayed ! review and revision of the county’s zoning and subdivision ordinances. “The first of the year, we have to get these ordinances reviewed and updated,” announced commissioner Newbill Miller at last Wednesday’s meeting. He reported that McNear, formerly a Rappahannock resident, had moved back to the county and while not willing to take Miller’s place on the planning commission as the Hampton District representative, had agreed to serve as an ex officio member during the ordinance review. “He does this 40 hours per week,” Miller added. Commonwealth’s attorney Douglas Baumgardner interjected that the supervisors had recently authorized him to retain a land use planning expert to help in drawing up ordinance amendments and that coincidentally, he'd also chosen McNear. He said that a letter from the Fauquier planner is now on its way to the supervisors, identifying “from a professional . planning standpoint" areas Rappahannock’s ordinances that are weak or in conflict with state enabling legislation. “There are a couple of areas where immediate action might be warranted,” Baumgardner continued. He suggested adoption of a conditional zoning ordinance “to give the county more flexibility" in dealing with rezoning requests, a proposal he made to the supervisors last week with no response. According to the commonwealth’s attorney, the abandonment portion of Rappahannock’s “grandfather clause’’ is null and void because it exceeds the authority granted by state enabling legislation. Under the ‘‘grandfather clause,” uses in existence at the time the zoning ordinance was adopted in 1973 are allowed to continue even if they don’t conform to ordinance provisions. Under county regulations, however, if a “grandfathered” use is discontinued for one year or more, the use cannot be resumed without compliance with Rappahannock’s land use laws. Baumgardner pointed out that state enabling legislation in this area gives a locality the right to require strict compliance if a nonconforming use is discontinued for two years or more, not one year. By exceeding authority granted by the state, he explained, the county has nullified its local ordinance on abandonment. He added that a landowner who discontinued a “grandfathered” use the day after the ordinance was adopted could pick up today right where he left off seven years ago without any further approval from the county. Another “glaring violation of equal protection under th* law” is section 2-31C of the subdivision ordinance which confers certain rights upon landowners of lots recorded prior to 1962, according to the commonwealth’s attorney. The section allows division of land into not more than five lots for transfer to parent or child. “I don’t think it takes legal training CPR Can Help Save A Life You’re standing at the living room window, watching as your husband shovels snow from the front porch when he gasps, clutches his chest and falls to the ground. He begins to turn blue and his breathing ceases. What would you do? In an emergency, people call their local rescue squad but it’s often a wait of 15 minutes or more before the ambulance and trained volunteers make their way down Rappahannock's back country roads. “People need to know something about basic life support so they can help us by keeping the victim alive until we get there,” said Kenneth Pullen, Flint Hill rescue squadsman and cochairman with Frankie Huff, and Julian Brown of the county fire and rescue association's newly formed rescue training committee. In order to teach the general public what to do in such an emergency, the committee is organizing classes . in CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) aimed at the layman. Participants will learn what to do in those vital minutes before the ambulance arrives. CPR provides artificial circulation and breathing to a person whose heart and < lungs have stopped functioning because of a heart attack, shock, drowning or other cause. External cardiac compressions administered manually are alternated with (Continued on Page 8) to see that (the provision) is a denial of equal protection under the law,’’ he stated. Miller agreed that the planning commission should review the areas mentioned by Baumgardner but maintained that the county's ordinance "has worked since 1963.” He suggested that the commission begin its review by meeting with Richard McNear in January and then holding weekly sessions, if necessary, until the update is completed. Chairman Herbert Barksdale proposed that a special committee be formed with Miller as chairman to work with McNear and Baumgardner on preliminary review. He suggested that new commissioner David Thornhill be part of the group. Miller said he’d also like to have supervisor chairman Luke on the committee which will develop a model ordinance to present to the entire planning commission. However, in spite of the weak spots in Rappahannock's zoning and subdivision regulations, he maintained that the county fias done well in administering land use controls compared to surrounding jurisdictions. Slope Provisions Vague Baumgardner suggested that the planners also examine the use of slope as the basis for zoning categories, adding that he thought McNear would agree that it shouldn’t be “the beall and end-all as far as zoning is concerned.” From a legal standpoint, he said, there’s a “real problem” with vagueness when a parcel of land under consideration is partially over and partially under 14 per cent slope. (Over 14 per cent slope, land is considered in a conservation zone with minimum lot size of 25 acres. (Continued on Page 5) Sign Ordinance Enforcement Rappahannocks zoning administrator received a push this week toward enforcement of local sign ordinances from the county’s commonwealth’s attorney. In a December 19 letter to Col. EmoMcNesr on file in. the county clerk’s office. Douglas Baumgardner reported that he has "received inquiries relative to alleged violation of Rappahannock County’s sign ordinances.” He noted that he earlier advised McNear to discuss with the supervisors how to proceed on en-^ forcement. a suggestion that the zoning administrator has apparently ignored to date. As attorney for the supervisors, Baumgardner wrote, he requested McNear to “initiate an investigation" and take appropriate action pursuant to regulations in Article 11, the county’s sign laws, and section ,18 which sets responsibility for enforcement of the ordinance with the zoning administrator. Copies of the letter were sent to all the members of the board of supervisors. Renewed concern over enforcement of the county’s sign laws comes in the wake of the November 13 meeting of the board of zoning appeals. At that session, Paul St. Clair’s application for a special use permit to erect a sign at Greenfield Farm on Route 211 to advertise his Black Kettle restaurant was unanimously denied. A few days later, the sign went up across the street from the location originally requested. A second sign was stuck on a hill overlooking Payne’s garage on 211 east of Washington. While it appears that the county won’t move swiftly to enforce provisions of local ordinances, tke highway department doesn’t delay. According to Julian Aylor, the man in charge of issuing the department’s sign permits, Route 211 is classified as a primary highway. The only signs allowed along it must go in commercial and industrial zones or within 500 feet of a commercial place of business. In addition, Aylor emphasized, any signs must be approved by county zoning. He reported that he’d sent St. Clair two applications for sign permits which must be filled out and returned to the highway department within 30 days. If the completed applications aren’t received within 30 days, a 15-day final notice is sent. According to Aylor, the St. Clairs’ time limit expires January 1. Neither application has been returned to date by the Black Kettle’s owner. Aylor emphasized, however, that if the county hasn’t first approved the proposed sign, there’s no need to apply to the state. Although the Black Kettle signs comply with highway department regulations, “if the county doesn’t approve it, that’s it,” he said. Aylor added that he will remove the signs if proof of approval from the county isn’t received by the stipulated time limit. • Rappahannock New* phoio/S.

The Salvation Army: A Hundred Years Of Battle with the Devil By THERESA REY NOLDS Rappahannock New* StoffWHlff In 1865 a renegade minister named William Booth gave up hope that the established churches would ever deal with the wretchedness he saw everywhere and stormed through the ale houses and sweat shops of London with a wild new religion that was to change the lives of millions of poor people everywhere. It was Victorian England.The emphasis among church-goers was on gentility and sentiment. The outraged Booth with his ragtag following of reformed drunks, released convicts, alienated young people and social reformers, set about improving the lives of the poor with a vengeance. With fire in his eyes and a Bible in his hand, Booth founded the Christian Mission and swore that his ministry would embrace all those abhorred by polite' society. He defined his flock from the start: “While women weep, as they do now. I’ll fight; while little children go hungry, as they do now. I’ll fight; while men go to prison, in and out, in and out, as they do now. I’ll fight; while there is a drunkard left, while there is a poor lost girl upon the streets, while there remains one dark soul without the light of God, I’ll fight—I’ll fight to the very end!” His compelling mix of compassion and fire caught on and the Christian Mission grew in numbers and influence throughout London and all of England. This Christmas season comes one hundred years after the arrival of Booth's followers in this country.

Local Forcca Although traditionally pictured as part of the urban scene, the Salvation Army may be found in any area that has a need. There is a small but very active outpost in Front Royal, and a service unit in Warrenton. The group in Front Royal serves Warren, Page, Shenandoah and Rappahannock counties. Todd Hawks, the young lieutenant who commands the Front Royal forces, explained why the group uses military terminoloy, rank, and uniform: “The Christian Mission was to help and minister to the poor and uneducated. The concept of an army was something they understood.” The military image also reenforced Booth's idea of a full-scale war with the devil. country’s history nor one more concerned with the poor and miserable. One hundred years after the Salvation Army’s start here, their image is more subdued but their goals are the same. “As far as our church goes, we’re much like any other church,” Lt. Hawks explained. “We have members and services and Sunday School. The difference is in our emphasis on action.’’ Hawks said that the Salvation Army frequently comes under attack by other churches. “The idea is that each church should take care of its own,” Hawks said. “That’s a fine idea but it falls apart in reality. I can’t tell a homeless derelict to go see his own minister—that’s laughable. We’ve also helped many poor people whose churches just don’t have the same tradition of service.” Hawks said that in the Front Royal area there is an said. “But we have unusual problems here. There’s an awful unemployment rate. In Front Royal and up into the mountains we have drifters - transients brought her with the tourist business, with the apple - pickers, or those who come down from somewhere in the mountains and run out of money.” Hawks said that out of about 20,000 in the Warren County area, an estimated 2,000 commute unbelievable distances to work - many as far as Washington and Baltimore. Ahhough most visible in the town of Front Royal, Hawks said that he wanted to encourage those in the lesser - populated areas of Warren, Rappahannock, Shenandoah and Page counties to make use of the Salvation Army’s services. “I think the rural poor are sometimes neglected,” Hawks said. “They surely don’t have the wealth of services you’d find Rappahannock New* photo 'Therena Re\nokta WITH SALVATION ARMY CHRISTMAS DOLLS is Lt.

Booth’s followers would find him and drive him out wherever his treachery was manifest in the miserable lives of men. The fiery Salvationists held mock trials and burned Satan in effigy. They employed any dramatic device that would attract attention: brass bands, parades, empty coffins, and prison uniforms. In their early years in New York they commandeered double-decker buses to gather up drunks and derelicts and transport them back to the Mission. Those too drunk to board buses were thrown in a water wagon. Those that didn't make it to the Mission to sober up amidst hell-fire sermons and hot soup "fell off the wagon.” There has never been a more colorful religion in our I—-1 May you have many, many more Christmases!

“I Am A Musician: That’s How I Feel. ” By DAPHNE HUTCHINSON Rappahannock Ncwti Staff Writer Bryan Daley is the complete musician. Like the 14th century gentlemen who could paint and sculpt, write poetry or prose, parry a master’s fencing blade, ride with skill and dance with grace, his interests are wide and his talents varied. Jazz? He can hammer out boogie-woogie on the grand old piano in his Castleton study. Blues? He can leave icicles hanging from the ivories. His classical guitar starts castanets clacking in the imagination while folk tunes on the dulcimer evoke scenes of mountain living from a century ago. Daley switches from instrument to instrument as easily as he does from style to style, dropping the electric guitar for the dulcimer, turning to the piano for a few bars and then back to an acoustical guitar, a mandolin and a toot or two on his recorder. He’s comfortable with each, slipping his fingers onto the keybouard or strings like an old man sliding worn out feet into a favorite pair of slippers. But it’s not as a performer that 27 year old Daley hopes to leave his mark on listeners. “Words and music by Bryan Daley”—that’s what he wants remembered.

We’re here to help. into the big ttme\ Daley is giving total commitment to earning a living with music. He’s allowing himself a full year strumming guitars and playing pianos to satisfy the pull of what he describes as his sensual side. But all the while that second side, his intellectual half, keeps tugging away in the opposite direction. Bryan Daley is not the ayerage catebarroom performer. He’s as gifted intellectually as he is talented musically. When the 12 months set aside for music are over, he’ll return to his other love, scholarship, and take his PhD exams at the University of Virginia, the culmination of eight years of graduate studies. Many performers rely on a second profession. Washington area blue grass musicians work as accountants, lawyers, photographers. Rock ’n’ roll stars leave the concert stage for the silver screen and corporate offices. But even in a world where out-of-theordinary becomes commonplace, Bryan Daley’s double life is still unusual. His second field of expertise is Tibetan Buddhism. He acknowledges that Eastern philosophy and religion is a long way from songs about broken hearts sung in a smokey Charlottesville bar. “They are somewhat diverse but they reflect my two different parts, intellectual and sensual.” In Rappahannock, living in the house his parents bought as a vacation home 12 years ago, Daley has kept his intellectual profile low. He explained that he hasn’t broadcast his scholastic achievements fof fear of making local people standoffish, deterred from friendly overtures because they suspect their newest neighbor might be one of those effete intellectual snobs. Intellectual snob? Daley is about as much of an intellectual snob as the good old boys who get together for pool and a few cool ones on Saturday night. He’s a high brow with a low keyed, down home manner. Daley’s educational 1 background is evident in conversation. Trying to keep it hidden would be like trying to diguise a pregnancy that’s reached its eighth month —you just can’t keep it from popping out. But he has none of the irritating habits that mark the intellectual snob. He talks instead of lecturing, never switching the i topic to Tibetan Buddhism when there’s a lull in the conversation. He doesn’t choose SO cent words when a nickel word will get the message across. He listens a We Thank Your For Your Kindness and Support Throughout The Year And Wish One and All A Happy Christmas and a Wonderful New Year The Inn Washington, Va. We’ll be open throughout January this year putting the finishing touches on our new lounge. lot and he laughs, often at himself. When he plays his music, his face relaxes into a little bit of a grin, the corners of his mouth just barely upturned. Music Always First Daley didn’t start out with the aim of becoming an expert in some obscure field of study. Right from the beginning he wanted to make music. “I first started playing in a duo in New York. I must have been 13 or 14 years old,” Daley recalled. He had studied classical and jazz guitar under a master of the strings and with the blessings of his school teacher parents, he began playing small clubs on Long Island. "We did stuff like Crosby, Stills' and Nash. We were very good,” he recalled with a proud smile. The smile changed into a sheepish grin as Bryan added that maybe, just maybe, he wasn’t quite the hot shot that he remembered. Instead of an unqualified good, he changed the description to "good for my age.” Music remained the prime motivation in his life when he left the family home in New York for the University of Virginia. As an undergraduate, he studied classical piano and composition. “But I didn’t have that special gift to make a career there,” he admitted, a shade of regret in his voice. Fortunately, he selected a double major—religion and music. When he admitted to himself that he didn’t have the magic to be a classic composer, Daley said, he decided to teach and play music on the side. He never intended to use his major in religion for preaching or as an entry into a religious order but rather as a key to the ivory towers of academia. Daley nosed around and-t found he could get a government grant to study Tibetan. There were no strings attached. He didn’t have to promise to spy for the^ CIA or eavesdrop on messages to China. “They just wanted to make sure' there was somebody out there who could speak the language,” said Daley, adding that timing played a fortuitous part in obtaining the grant. The start of his Tibetan studies luckily coincided with the beginning of the county’s conflict with China and the closing of its borders. Burning Both Ends In his graduate work. Daley made time for music. But squeezing hours for both was difficult. He found himself burning the candle at Here's hoping wo can share many moro Christmas** together! Best Wishes / to All Baldwin’s West End Shell 9C7-B240 two ends and in the middle. “It was making me suffer a lot. The time element was critical. I needed more than 24 hours in a day,” he said, recalling how he’d get home from a gig in D. C. at midnight, study until 3 or 4 a.m. and then grab a few hours of sleep before his 8 a.m. class. “I was irritable, surly,” Daley admitted. “And I realized that I was more of a musician than a scholar.” So he drooped school for a year. The energy split between music and books is now channeled entirely towards music. He spends mornings practicing in the old farm house next door to Bessie Bell mountain. His small work room is dominated by an antique piano, a donation from a 'friend. Fingers flying across the keyboard occasionally land a clunker of a note, the fault, he explained, of the piano, not the pianist. “It’s much more valuable as an antique than an instrument,” Daley noted, justifying his reluctance to spend upwards of $500 to have it restrung. Guitars, a dulcimer, tape decks, microphones, records, sheet music and other musical paraphernalia crowd the floor. At the other extreme, oriental prints flank a photograph of Bryan’s teacher in Tibetan Buddhism. Looking down from the walls, they give the room an aura of uncluttered simplicity, a feeling of airy space. During his years at U Va., Daley built a clientele in Charlottesville. Ticking off the places he’s played on a fairly regular basis, the list sounds like the yellow page index of night spots and restaurants. “Since 1 went to school there, I’ve had an easier time,” he said. Now he’s trying to crack a little bigger nut, moving on to D. C. where he’s performed as a solo act at seven or eight places. His style is soft rock, California acoustic that’s a little like Linda Rondstadt, a Jittle like Jackson Brown and „ a lot like Dan Foggleburg. Daley is very conscious of the influences other performers have on his music. At intervals, he shelves all the recordings by a particular artist, not listening any longer when he starts to hear too much Foggleburg in Daley. He explained that he doesn’t want to sound like an affordable version of the bigger stars. Bryan describes his style as eclectic, a blend of what he sees as the best in others but a mix, not a copy, a fusion of classical, jazz and rock. In his performances, he does about 40 per cent original material interspersed with songs popularized by more famous artists. “I feel better playing my own. I don’t really like copying.” His instrument of choice is the acoustical guitar which means that he has to occasionally break up the soft California sound with a rocker. “As an acoustic musician, I don’t want people to get too sleepy,” he smiled. Daley is feeling his way into composing. His pieces still sound much like the folk rock written by other performers. The songs are smooth, they bring back places and feelings, but they’Te a litjtle like something you’ve heard before. “There’s a tale of wind that’s coming,” begins one Daley wrote last year while watching the U. S. Open Golf Tournament. "I got the worn out working day blues and I need somebody to see me on through. Yes, I do,” goes another that harks back to early James Taylor. He uses his own experiences for material. A glimpse of heat lightning on a hot summer night started the images rolling for a new number, a song where Bryan may somewhere stick in “flashes of night lightning, a taste for white lightning and a case for you.” "I’m very good with ideas—that’s why I studied Buddhism,” Daley said. “But I am a musician. That’s how „ I feel.” INTEREST -BEARING CHECKING I 1 Earn 5V*% interest on the money in checking & Loan.

DECEMBER 25, 1980 And It Came To Pass... And it came to pus in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; To be taxed t|ith Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not; for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying. Glory to God in the highest, and on earth; peace, good will toward men.— The Gospel according to St. Luke. Yes, There Is A Santa I This famous editorial first appeared in the \>u York Sun. September 21. 18971. We lake pleasure in answering at once and thus prominently the communication below, expressing at the same time our great gratification that its faithful author is numbered among the friends of The Sun: Dear Editor: I am 8 years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says "If you see it in The Sun it's so. " Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus? Virginia O'Hanlon 115 West 95th Street Virginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except what they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds. Virginia, whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours man is a mere insect, an ant. in his intellect, as compared with the boundless world about him. as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the w hole of truth and knowledge. ^ es. Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how drearv would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as drearv as if there were no Virginias. I here would In* no childlike faith then, no |M>etrv. no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished. Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies! You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but even, if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobocly sees Santa C la us, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world. You tear a part’the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man. nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah. Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding. No Santa Claus! Thank God he lives, and he lives forever. A thousand years from now. Virginia, nay. ten times ten thousand years from now. he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.

Warner Hits 100% For Two Years “You made it,” a pleased Senate Republican Leader Howard H. Baker, Jr., of Tennessee (left) said as he placed a pin on Virginia Sen. John W. Warner’s lapel in recognition of Warner’s 100per cent voting record during his first two years in Congress. Joining in the informal ceremony on the steps of the United States Capitol was Warner’s wife, Elizabeth. During the two-year term of the %th Congress, Warner is the only Republican senator to be recorded as voting “yea” or “nay” on every one of the Senate’s nearly 1,050 rollcalls. For a GOP senator, Warner’s is the first perfect voting record for an entire Congress in almost a decade. It was last accomplished by the late Sen. Margaret Chase Smith of Maine in 1971-72. In January, when the new Republican majority organizes the Senate, Warner will become chairman of the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on Strategic and Theater Nuclear Forces, with jurisdiction over strategic aircraft, missiles and submarines, strategic air and ballistic missile defenses, tactical nuclear forces, nuclear weapons research and development, and arms control. Warner, as a member of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, also will chair the Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources with jurisdiction over energy and non-fuel mineral resources, federal mineral leasing, mining policy, general mining laws, surface mining and petroleum reserves. Leather (Continued from Page 1) zoned M-l?” asked Baumgardner. The planners jointly came up with several pieces of property—the Aileen plant, both Co-op parcels, the Flint Hill stone quarry—that have industrial zoning. Phil Irwin, president of the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection, asked why the planners were considering an amendment to the ordinance rather than suggesting Kuncewicz apply for a special use permit. Miller explained that the zoning ordinance has no provision for light leather processing in an industrial zone by right or with a special permit. “It’s either an amendment or get a variance and just the basic word ‘variance’ offends me.” Baumgardner added that the board of zoning appeals, in acting on a variance request, must adhere to certain criteria. One is that they can’t amend tne ordinance by variance, he said. A variance in Kuncewicz’s case would be inappropriate because, in effect, the BZA would be legislating new law, according to the commonwealth’s attorney. Agreeing to proceed, the commissioners suggested that Baumgardner work with Kuncewicz on a definition of .* 1 - r* $7,000 Given To the editor: The Washington Ladies Auxiliary wishes to thank everyone who helped with baked goods, apples and cider at our recent sales.

"I’ll try,” he replied, adding that he will consult experts in the processing field for information and answers to anticipated questions on environmental impact. In other action, the commissioners agreed to advertise a rezoning request from Charles Dodson for public hearing at their January 21 meeting. Dodson, who owns three acres off Route 707 at Slate Mills, is seeking to rezone a small section 107 feet deep and 55 feet across for a commercial garage and inspection station.

The Auxiliary made $480 on the days of the Rappahannock House tour and $2,132.50 from Thrift Shop sales during 1980. During the past year, the Ladies Auxiliary gave the Washington Fire and Rescue Squad a $1,500 check and paid $900 on their bank note plus paid $4,600 on their borrowed money note. In total, the Auxiliary donated $7,000 to the Washington Fire Department and Rescue Squad in 1980. In addition, we have donated clothes to welfare families and to families whose homes and belongings have been destroyed by fire. We also sent items to flood areas last year in care of Vint Hill Farms. We would like to announce that the Thrift Shop has been moved from the old fire house to the former Washington Methodist Church, now the new town hall, across from Jenkins Auction House. We are still accepting donations of clean, usable clothing, furniture and household items. Anyone with items to donate can leave them at the side of the church or call 675-3608 to arrange pick-up or have the building opened. The shop will reopen for 1981 in April at the new location. We thank everyone for a very successful year and hope the residents of Rappahannock will continue to help us to help others. RUTH CLARK President, Washington Ladies Auxiliary Many Thanks To the editor: Once again it is my pleasant task to thank the many who helped in the Friday evening telling of the Christmas Story in the Town Hall. The assistance was varied, but all indispensable; one bit could never have been afforded had not Tommy Starks made his “Hyster” available, with Ernest Fletcher to run it, as an act of community spirit for the decking of the community Christmas tree.

A Christian Army Celebrates A Century Of Salvation (Continued from Page 2) hit intentions.” Hawks said that, in this area, a lot of people who come to the Salvation Army are temporarily in trouble with the rent, with fuel or with food for their families. “We have an advantage over government and other agencies. We can help people on on an individual basis.” Hawks gave some examples of help the Salvation Army here has provided recently. It helped a Rappahannock County man several times with rent and utilities when he was temporarily unemployed; it gave food and shelter to a woman whose husband abused her and her children until she could leave the area; it housed and fed the wife and children of a New York man awaiting trial in Front Royal. “It really meant a lot to : him to have them here,” Hawks said. “We don’t often get to see such a clear-cut happy ending. He was acquitted and they all went home.” Few Happy Endings For many that the Salvation Army serves, no happy ending seems possible. Hawks said that he sees his share of those for whom salvation remains elusive. “There are professional transients - they'll be here for support one night, at the Winchester Salvation Army the next night,” he said. Hawks has also unknowingly housed and fed fugitives, \ criminals, and occasionally, a fraud. v “A TTENTION COMMUTERS” There is a better way to commute to: Bethesda, Rockville, ^ or Washington, D.C.

"It had been raining for lays. They were backpacking ind soaking wet. Now, I Knew they were not poor - poor people don’t go backpacking - but they were :emporaily in need and I gave them a meal and lodging. Later I found out that they >rdered a beer at the restaurant and paid for it with a twenty-dollar bill.” While this kind of abuse makes Hawks mad, he says that he will continue to offer help on an informal basis. ‘We check as thoroughly as we can," he said. "But it’s not our policy to have a lot of delay and paperwork.” Hawks said that for many vith problems that can’t be pigeonholed by a government agency or for those who have catastrophic, immediate problems, the Salvation Army otters a last -esort, a responsibility he feels heavily. "If we can’t do anything," he says, “where else can I send them?” Right now Hajvks is worried about the coming of cold weather and the administration of his fund for fuel. The Front Royal-based Salvation Army received S2200 from the wishing well at Skyline Caverns, and Hawks wants to use the money to provide warmth for poor families. Rising oil prices have created a problem. “Oil companies now won’t deliver less than 100 gallons," he said. "These days that’s a hundred dollars.

He has a bonus this year of"' hundreds of packages of English muffins donated by McNear To Help With Ordinance (Continued from Page 1) Under 14 per cent, land is considered in an agricultural zone with lot size from two to five acres.) Baumgardner stressed that he didn’t feel slope should be completely disregarded, rather just not used as the sole determining factor for zoning. "That’s the only thing you’ve said so far tonight that 1 disagree with," Miller countered. "Slope is the least discriminating thing (to use as a zoning basis)—it’s an absolute." He noted that problems of conservation are minimized when developed land is under 14 per cent slope unless the property lies in flood plain. "I think the slope provision is one of the best provisions we have in our ordinance," Miller said. Baumgardner repeated that it can cause difficulties, citing as an example the recent application considered by the board of zoning appeals for a special use permit to convert a farm building into apartments. According to the commonwealth’s attorney, the zoning administrator determined that 60 per cent of the property was under 14 per cent slope while BZA members in a later on-site inspection throught only 40 per cent of the land was under 14 per cent slope. Suppose the parcel in question has 55 per cent of its area over 14 per cent grade and 45 per cent under, he continued, noting the ordinance doesn’t say what the percentage of land under a certain slope must be in order to fall into one category or another. “You can’t really say what that land is zoned." Miller agreed the planners would have to address the question of what percentage must be over 14 per cent slope in order for a parcel to be zoned conservation. "1 think we have too many zoning districts,” remarked Luke. He suggested elimination of several and addition of more uses allowed by special permit. The current practice of designating commercial uses in agricultural areas as being in a commercial district is unrealistic since the district isn’t really a district but just a single use on one parcel of land, according to the supervisor chairman. Miller agreed with Luke’s proposal but still maintained that determination of zoning by slope should be retained. *‘I don’t like the way we administer slope,” Luke responded. He pointed out that developers are held to strict compliance while “ordinary folks” who divide just a single lot or two with administrative approval are not even checked for compliance with slope regulations. When the ordinance revision is finished, Miller concluded, the best way to handle slope criteria may be to require strict compliance of everyone and have the supervisors so direct the zoning administrator.

Rappahannock Home Mutual Fire Insurance Company Washington, Va. the Thomas company, and 200 loaves of bread donated by the Front Royal A & A. Lieutenant and Mrs. Hawks have started a new program this year that has worked very well. They compiled a list of specific gifts requested by poor children and advertised locally for pledges. Fifty children will receive exactly what they want for maybe the first time in their lives. The requests range from a practical “pair of girls size five shoes” to Star Wars toys and games. The Army also hofds Christmas parties for poor children and for those in nursing homes and jails. The Life of A Soldier It is the policy of the Salvation Army to demand the same degree of wholehearted commitment that General Booth expected over a century ago. The troops are trained in Army seminaries. These "cadets” take Psychology, Theology, Accounting and other practical courses for two years before being sent to the front as Lieutenants. They marry only within the service. The Salvation Army has had a history of feminism from the start. Women are promoted as rapidly as men and do the same work. Mrs. Hawks is also a lieutenant in Front Royal and together they earn the standard married lieutenant’s pay - $122.00 weekly. After 45 years of service they can expect to make $144.50 a week as majors. They work six or seven days a week, combining the social service activities of the Army with the pastoral duties of the church. Their congregation is also expected to work, as service to the poor and miserable is at the very foundation of the church’s doctrine. The Salvation Army is proud of its unconventional, shirtsleeve approach to religion. It is an organization completely lacking in glamour, pretense, or lavish fund-raising activities. It keeps its overhead at rockbottom. It has yet to be “discovered” by high society. Although they no longer advocate civil disobedience as they did at the turn of the century when regulations made their street-corner brass bands illegal, Salvationists do consider themselves miltant and out of the mainstream of middleclass life. At a centennial celebration held last summer in Kansas City this line from one of the presentations brought the loudest cheers: “When the Army worries about its good name, it’s done for.” The Salvation Army has won an unparalleled degree of trust from convicts, defelicts, and American soldiers of four wars. “It’s been my whole life,” Lieutenant Hawks said. "It’s a strange life that not everybody understands. We go where no one else will go. We do what no one else wants to do.” Season’s Greetings and j Sincere Thanks for youi) Continued Patronage BRADFORDS SUPERETTE AND RESTAURANT Flint Hill 675-3593 / L JOY, SHARING AND CARING That’s what Christmas is all about!

Hoffman, chief of the commission’s Fish Division, said, “Construction of the lake is an outstanding example of what can be accomplished through the cooperation of local, state and federal governments. The necessary land was donated to the commission by Stafford County and financing was provided by state fishing license revenues and fish restoration funds r from the US Fish and Wildlife Service. The lake was stocked in 1978 with largemouth bass, tiger muskie, bluegill, redear sunfish and channel catfish and also contains good pickerel and crappie populations. Fish biologist Jim McHugh reports the fish population is in good shape and he expects excellent action in the spring of 1981, particularly for bass and pickerel. Considerable standing timber was left in the lake which is expected to enhance the fishing experience. Wishing you everything that's bright and beautiful at Christmas.

Member FDIC For the Birds The feathered friends on your holiday gift list would like nothing more than to find their favorite foods in your backyard this winter. The secret of attracting wild birds to your feeding stations is to provide the foods they like best and to put them in the right places, says Ranger Rick's Nature Magazine. Just as some birds would rather eat suet than nuts, many birds prefer to eat on the ground rather than from hanging feeders. The National Wildlife Federation’s monthly publication for children offers these guidelines for providing a variety of wintering birds with the right foods in the right places: Ground Feeders include blue jays, sparrows, juncos. quail, mourning doves, pheasants, chickadees, and house finches. Their favorite foods are sunflower seeds, cracked corn (inexpensive, but will also attract starlings, grackles, and pigeons), wild bird seed mix, and peanuts. Feeders can be split fireplace logs (flatside up), hubcaps (for food or water), garbage can lids, trays, shallow pans, or birdbath tops (for water). Tabletop or Window Feeders include cardinals, goldfinches, grosbeaks, chickadees, house finches, redpolls, purple finches, mockingbirds, and jays. Their favorite foods are sunflower seeds, shelled peanuts, wild bird seed mix, raisins, and currants. Feeders can be trays placed on picnic tables, benches, or stumps, or attached to windowsills. Hanging or High High Post Feeders include cardinals, chickadees, goldfinches or other finches, pine siskins, redpolls, titmice, and nuthatches. Their favorite foods are niger or thistle seeds, sunflower seeds, wild bird seed mix, and peanut hearts or other nutmeats. Feeders can be plastic tube feeders, round or square post feeders (some shaped like little houses), or recycled milk cartons, detergent, or bleach bottles, which have been cut open for easy access. Trunk Feeders include chickadees, woodpeckers, nuthatches, and many seedeating birds. Their favorite foods are suet or suet cakes, which can be mixed with peanut butter, seeds, and other treats. rteucrb tan ue wire niesn holders, plastic mesh bags (used for onions, oranges, etc.) or log holders. “Don’t be discouraged if the birds don’t come flocking into your yard the first day you put out food,” advises Ranger Rick. “Sometimes it takes a while for the birds in your area to discover your feeders. Once they’ve found them, they’ll keep coming back so long as there is food for them.” Feeders should be kept clean and checked every day. Don’t put out large amounts of food that could spoil or attract rats or mice. And remember that besides food and water, birds need cover. “Most birds seem to feel more comfortable eating at feeders near trees or bushes where they can perch and hide from hawks or neighborhood cats,” says Ranger Rick. It’s always nice to wake up on a frosty winter morning and see a perky chickadee feeding in your backyard. And it’s a perfect way to wish wildlife a “Happy Holiday.” ©bituartea Buck Miss Annie Deatherage Buck, 85, of Front Royal died Saturday, December 20,1960 at Warren Memorial Hospital. Front Royal.

May the holidays reward yoa with what yoa*ve been hoping for! Gilliam Lumber Co. Commerce Awe., Front Royal Keep Christmas At Friary families and friends. But the secular celebrations are squeezed in to fit between worship of God and Christ. As members of the Third Order Regular of St. Francis of Penance, the four friars at Portiuncula take little part in active ministry. “We’re not here primarily for ministry. We’re here for prayer,” Father Augustine explained. The friary on Route 604 was founded three years ago. Every morning since, the fathers have begun their days with prayers at 5:40 a.m. The service is the first of six, the last coming at 9 p.m., all conducted in chants. The friars sing their psalms to the accompaniment of an organ in a little chapel that looks out over the Blue Ridge mountains and valleys. From December 17 through 23, they offer solemn devotional chants of _ expectation, each day lighting a special candle on the window ledge. “Then He’s here,” Father Ronald proclaimed. “At 6:30 on Christmas Eve, we actually begin the celebration of Christmas,” Fahter Augustine explained. Quiet Prayer A week before Christmas, the house was hushed, the silence barely cracked by the quiet voices of visiting oriests and a solitary worshipper or two. From 9 p.m. until noon, the friars spend their hours in silence, speaking only when absolutely necessary, Father Augustine said. “Prayer grows in an atr mosphere of quiet.” The time between the six services of chanted psalms they devote to private prayer, to study and reading and to the hundred and one AT PRAYER SERVICES six times a day, psalms from the organ in the friary’s chapel.

The Franciscans heat their ritiro, their house of prayerful retreat, with wood. Trees must be cut, kindling split, logs carried and stacked. They keep up the acres and acres of rolling pasture and and forest and don aprons over their black robes to take their turns in the kitchen. “There’s not much privacy in the house for spiritual direction and retreat,” Father Ronald acknowledged. For those seeking solitude, the friars renovated a small guest cottage behind the main house and built a tiny, one room hermitage back in the woods on a ledge overlooking • winding creek. Both are primitive. The emphasis at Portiuncula ritiro is not comfort but a continuation of Vatican II's spiritual renewal, according to Father Augustine. Although the Franciscans number 15,000 to 30,000 in the U. S. alone, the Third Order Regular of St. Francis of Penance is small. "There are only 1,000 in our community in the whole world,” Father Ronald said. Franciscan friars are not monks. As he explained it, monks take vows of poverty, chastity, obedience and stability. "They’re anchored to a place and take their vows to a community. It ordinarily means their whole life is spent there, in one place. ...Friars were meant to be wanderers, to go where they’re needed.” (Continued on Page 10) NOEL May the Peace of Christ abide in every heart this hely season.

Bruce Vogel Podiatrist Foot specialist “MY BABY’S FEET LOOK FLAT” Many parents feel that their young children have flat feet During the first months, all infants have flat looking feet because of the softness of the tissues. As the child grows, if the foot is truly flat, there will be a misalignment of the bones. This should definitely be treated, because a truly 'flat" foot does not only look bad, but it functions very poorly and can later lead to such problems as corns, bunions, hammertoes, etc Sometimes these children do not complain about their feet and others only complain that their legs hurt. "Flat" feet are easier to treat in children while the bones are soft: Usually we use simple devices in the shoes, and often if these soft bones can be trained to grow correctly, these devices will not have to be used as adults. Remember, we are only young once A public service with the aim of promoting a better foot health environment from the office of Dr. B. Vogel, 85 Garret St., 347-9393.

Christmas at the Franciscan Friary (Continued from Page 10) Since Vatican II, the Franciscans with the rest of the Catholic Churcn have been trying to rediscover their roots. In the past, particularly in the United States, the order has been heavily involved in education. Now the emphasis has passed to evangelism, to “proclaiming the good news,” Father Ronald said, adding that Franciscan friars teach H.29N Funeral Service Inc.

Welcome And Prayer The ritiro is an island of quiet in the order’s active religious life. It’s part of Franciscan history rediscovered in the aftermath of Vactican II. The Third Order Regular of St. Francis of Penance sent members of its community here from Ireland in 1840, according to Father Ronald. On the old sod, the order had a retreat house. “We dug into our own roots and discovered we had one,” Father Ronald said, "a place put aside where we can emphasize quiet and the spiritual life.” A similar retreat was founded three years ago at Boston. “Our first job here is to pray. That’s our major function, to pray to God in the name of our whole community. Our second function is to welcome guests," Father Ronald said. Most of the guests are fellow friars who want quiet and a rest from active ministry. Others are lay people who come for an afternoon or evening of conversation and spiritual guidance. Some are neighbors, like Gordon and Sally Thornhill next door to the friary. "They are the most wonderful neighbors in all of Rappahannock County. Everyone has welcomed us so warmly but Gordon and Sally have been so good to us,” said Father Augustine. "At 10 p.m. one night, our well went dry. We called up Gordon and he worked until it was repaired. Their warm friendliness is a treasure.” The Thornhills return the affection. Recently, their daughter was home from the University of Virginia where she’s taking a course in religion this year. According to Gordon, she's spent hours next door at the friary, deep in conversation with the fathers. “They’re wonderful, wonderful men.” Of the four friars now at Portiuncula, only Father Ronald and Father Augustine have been there Since the friary was founded. Father Augustine came to Boston after 30 years of teaching at St. Francis Seminary in Pennsylvania. Father Ronald was one of his students there along with the Franciscans’ current minister general, the order’s worldwide head in Rome, tivery four years, the friars elect a provincial head and a council to govern the order for four years. ’’They’re our own local,” chuckled Father Ronald. The friars all asked to come to Boston. “No one is assigned here unless they first asked to come,” Father Ronald emphasized. After a request for transfer to the ritiro, friars stay for 30 days. ‘‘Then they go home. If they want to continue, they must apply again,” with the understanding that the commitment is for ait least a full year, Father Ronald explained. The four men now at the friary are all ordained priests, a vocation shared with most but not all Franciscans. Because they are priests, they can help out at local parishes, hearing confessions at Easter and Christmas, taking over services in case of illness. But Father Ronald stressed repeatedly that prayer and not parish work is their primary responsibility. The First Nativity Scene The birth of Christ will be re-enacted this week in Nativity scenes put on by churches and communities around the world. St. Francis, the founder of the Franciscan order, originated this tradition, according to Father Ronald. "St. Francis had an incredible love of Jesus, just incredible. He walked around just saying the name ‘Jesus,’ joyfully, joyfully," Father Ronald said. Francis wondered what the birth of the savior had been like, and so two or three years before his death in 1224, he found a cave and with straw and donkeys set up a manger, according to the friar. Everyone in the little village of Greccio came with candles to hear Francis sing the Gospel and preach. "The story says a baby appeared in the manger and it was the Christ child,” Father Ronald concluded.

The award was presented at the Virginia Division, American Cancer Society annual meeting held recently in Norfolk. Silver Appraiser Featured The Rappahannock County Library is sponsoring a program on Wednesday, January 21, featuring Mrs. Carl “Pipsy” Bischoff, a silver appraiser. She will discuss antique silver, how to research one’s own silver using tools provided by libraries and how to determine the authenticity of an artifact. As a special feature, ■Bischoff will examine silver pieces brought in by members of the audience and identify them as to country of origin, function and age. (No more than one per person.) In some instances where there is a degree of standardization, she may suggest the approximate value of the article; however, she does not plan to do that for each item since that may involve more time and effort than the circumstances permit. Asked how she had Decome involved in such an unusual career, Pipsy said that she was born in India of British and Russian parents, educated in England, France, Switzerland and Egypt before coming to the States for college and that during those formative years she was exposed to an environment where silver was much in evidence. She developed an artistic interest in silver and a curiosity about the historical origins of significant pieces. As so often happens, this research paid off later when, after her marriage to Carl Bischoff, then associated with the State Department, she lived in Georgetown. Browsing through an antique silver shop there, she noted a vacancy on the store’s staff. The only prerequisite for employment was knowledge of English history and an interest in silver. Qualifying —Rappakananck Nnn Phntn/Cnartny nl MtaJr Yiwnf SILVER EXPERT Pipsy Biscboff bones up on information "she’ll present at the Rappahannock County Library’s special program on silver appraising, scheduled for Wednesday, January 21, at 7:30 p.m. well in both matters, she was accepted and learned silver appraising from her employer in Shaw and Brown Company. Bischoff remained there for fifteen years, buying, selling and appraising silver for museums, insurance companies and collectors. After moving to Rappahannock County in 1973, she gradually began a business of her own. She now does appraisals for estates and individuals at their homes, returning to develop the details at her Castleton home where she has access to her private and extensive library on silver.

Winter Is More Than Another Season The season of frosted window panes, warm fires and hot chocolate arrived at 11:56 a.m. on December 21. At this time, winter settles on the northern hemisphere as the sun appears to pause in its southern drift, having reached the extreme point in its journey—the winter solstice. On this day, the Earth’s north pole is tipped as far away from the sun as possible. The midday sun shines at its lowest point above the horizon followed by the longest night of the year. Then the sun begins to move northward again. The word solstice, meaning “sun standing still,” has been used to describe those times that the sun’s north and south motion seems to momentarily stop. In ancient times, people devised ritual dances to influence the sun’s course at the summer and winter solstices hoping to persuade the sun to resume its movements and dramatizing through their dances what the sun should do. In some South American countries a dancer, representing the sun, would move up a steep flight of stairs (indicating the sun’s ascent from north to south) to dance upon a small platform (which signified the sun’s “motionlessness” during the solstices), and then would move or be BIDS EMERGENCY ELECTRICAL CONTROLS FOR RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL SHOP Interested contractors may secure specifications from: William J.

Solstice dances were usually accompanied by other rituals such as offerings to the dead and worship of the sunimage. Many centuries ago, the winter solstice was more than just the beginning of a season, as it is today. Past civilizations, intrigued by the sun, used its standstill •position to accurately record time. Sunrise and sunset direction established a definite day only at the times of the summer and winter solstices. Therefore, ancient man used these two significant events as a reference point to develop various forms of solar calendars. Dr. Paul H. Knappenberger, Jr., director of the Science Museum of Virginia and an astronomer, noted at a recent Museum program that different cultures observed the motion of the sun throughout the year, devising a system of recording days and Reasons by the sun’s position in the sky. According to Or. Knappenberger, the Mayans of the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico developed a complex calendar system over 1,500 years ago using several different types of cycles, one of which marked the seasonal changes by the sun’s motion.

The Mayans also Incorporated the sun’s movements into the architecture of temples and pyramids which aligned with the northernmost and southernmost rising points of the sun during the summer and winter solstices. “It wasn’t just the Mayans who developed complex solar calendars,’’ Dr. Knappenberger explained. “Ancient inhabitants of the American southwest also built structures that were used to signal seasonal changes.” In January, 1981, Dr. Knappenberger and other astonomers will travel to Chaco Canyon in northwestern New Mexico to see the Anasazi “sun dagger”—a solar timepiece made out of stone which marks the seasons and demonstrates a very advanced understanding of the sky. Built by the Anasazi (the Navajo Indian name which means “Ancient Ones”), three vertical slabs of sandstone lean against a cliff face in such a way as to mark the changes of seasons with light daggers as the sun moves across the sky throughout the year. The images the sun makes on the large carved spiral, a petroglyph, on the face of the cliff behind the slabs, indicate seasonal changes as Sursum Corda Expands Sursum Corda School and Day Care Center is expanding its services to include several new support outlets for parents. Parents are invited to visit the school each Friday for coffee hour from 8:30-9:30 a.m. Free coffee and baked goods are served, and parents have an opportunity to intermingle and talk with one another about their children. For single parents, or the “at-home” parent who has little feedback from other parents, this is a time when child-rearing joys and problems can be shared. Each Monday as parents drpp off .their children, they, check the Parent Bulletin Board for the Parent-“Free Lunch Winner of the Week”. Winners are invited to use their two-month passes to enjoy one of Sursum Corda’s nutritious meals. Visiting the school during lunchtime gives parents the opportunity to see first-hand how their child relates to other children and adults, and how wholesome eating habits are encouraged by the school staff. Sursum Corda is also sponsoring a series of presentations on parentrelated issues at its ParentTeacher meetings, which are held every two months. Mrs. Lynn Baines, a seventh grade teacher at Rappahannock County Elementary School and president of the Rappahannock County Education Association, spoke at the December 9 meeting on Discipline and Children. Also featured was Rusty Harris, a counselor at the Rappahannock Mental Health Clinic, who specializes in child development.

At the time of winter solstice, two light shafts, one to each side, frame the petroglyph, moving down the sides of the spiral. But, at winter solstice, when the sun is at its lowest midday position in the sky, the petroglyph is free of sunlight. This specific movement of light daggers, oriented to the height of the midday sun, told the "Ancient Ones,” who prospered from 800 to 1250 A.D., the time of year. High on Wyoming’s Bighorn Mountains is yet another form of a solar calendar built by the Anasazi’s northern Indian neighbors, an elaborate pattern traced out in stone on a plateau near the top of a 10,000 foot mountain. Unlike1 the cliff-dwelling Anasazi. the Indians of the plains, who built the 28-spoke Bighorn Medicine Wheel over 2,000 years ago, left no other traces of their civilization. The rock formation they did leave behind, however, marks the rising and setting sun during solstice time and apparently was used to record time in a 28-day period. Rock piles, or cairns, unevenly spaced around the medicine wheel’s rim, also indicate the rising points of three bright stars: throughout his presentation.

The symmetrical location of the cairns on either side of a north-south line suggests that they served as horizon markers for sunrise and sunset. All of the medicine wheels which have been examined share one common feature—they were built on the highest land around with a clear view of the horizon. Speculation about the Bighorn Medicine Wheel and other similar medicine wheels continues to engage the attention of astronomers like Dr. Knappenberger who wonder if the alignments are only coincidental, or if there is more significance to the design of the wheels that is yet to be discovered.

Services For The Deaf The telephone is no longer a useless instrument for some 76,000 totally deaf Americans. The telecommunications industry has developed equipment and services that have enabled deaf, hearingimpaired and speechimpaired persons to communicate by telephone. "The whole industry is trying to make it easier for the hearing-and speechimpaired to use the phone,” said Nate Brown, Central Telephone-Virginia’s coordinator of services for the handicapped and elderly. Small, portable teletypewriter machines called TDDs (Telecommunications Devices for the Deaf) have recently been developed to allow deaf phone customers to easily send and receive messages from customers with similar units. TDDs are of no use unless they are linked to other TDDs. Now there is a number deaf phone users can call 24 hours a day. In June, the Bell System created a national toll-free number, 800-855-1155, where TDD users can reach a special operator to help them with person-to-person, collect, credit card and thirdnumber calls. By calling the number, deaf customers can also be put in touch with a 24-hour directory assistance service, which operates from four regional TDD operator | stations, located in Boston, Philadelphia, Oakland and Omaha. Because TDD regional operators don’t have local emergency numbers, the service is not for use in emergencies. Telephone equipment for the deaf has received a big lift from computerization. To operate a TDD, a handset from a conventional telephone is placed in a cradle on the TDD. Phone messages are typed on a keyboard and the TDD’s mini-computer converts the typed message to a computer language that travels over the phone line. Messages are translated by the TDD on the other end and read on a display screen. Brown and staff members at Centel’s corporate headquarters in Chicago are testing and evaluating various TDDs. “We’ll offer at least two models for sale here in Virginia, and we’re working on a plan where by January 1, 1981, we could possibly lease sets to customers who couldn’t afford to buy,” Brown said. For more information about telecommunications for the deaf, Centel customers can call Nate Brown collect at 804-9712271. ++++ The first permanent settler in Iceland is believed to have been Ingolfur A mason of Norway who arrived around 870 with his family.

Sursum Corda (Continued from Page 12) organized for those who need occasional child care services at night and on the weekends. Parents other than school parents are welcome to join and may do so by calling the school at 675-3237 between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. In addition to its programs for children who are regularly enrolled, Sursum Corda began a drop-in child care service in June for children of all ages. Any parent may take advantage of this program for emergency child care needs or simply to have a day by one’s self. Parents should pre-register their children prior to the first day of drop-in care. More details on this program can be obtained by calling the school. After-school care is also available for children ages 512. This service is used primarily by working parents. Children may be enrolled by the day, week, or month. They may also come to the day care center on holidays and other days that regular school programs are closed and Sursum Corda is open. The day care center is open year-round and is closed only 10 weekdays of the year. Sursum Corda was established in 1976 and is now in its fifth year of operation as a non-profit corporation. It offers childcare for infants, toddlers, pre-schoolers and afterschool children, as well as educational enrichment classes for school age I children and adults.
