Trees at the lower elevations are also beginning to turn in isolated pockets. Naturalists at Shenandoah National Park are predicting the peak of fall color between Oct. 15 and 20. Rappahannock News photos/Cindy Mahan THE SPERRYVILLE VFD’S Firemen’s Carnival, a new attraction at the Apple Harvest Festival, bustles with activity after dark. Apple Fest draws record crowds By LISAG. CURRIE Rappahannock News Staff Writer August-like weather, government furloughs, and a three-day weekend all may have contributed to the success of the Sperryville Apple Harvest Festival, this past weekend. “It’s been a outstanding weekend,” John Jenkins from Country Home Antiques said, adding this is probably one of the “best years so far” for the annual fall event. Precise tole paintings, decorated straw hats, blue and pink rocking horses, dried flowers, herbs and spices, simmering apple butter, delicious funnel cakes, crates of fine Rappahannock-grown apples in a fall spectrum of color and fine antiques lined the streets of Sperryville, filling parking lots and street sides See FESTIVAL, p. A-5 A BRILLIANT FALL sunset throws the day’s last light over Sperry ville. Agencies combine efforts to offer training to hard-core unemployed By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer A major new job-training initiative was unveiled last week by the state Department of Social Services and the Piedmont Job Training Administration. The program, according to state Commissioner of Social Services Larry Jackson, differs from previous efforts because of the cooperative efarrangements between a number of agencies in providing services to chronically unemployed residents. The program is also unusual, Commissioner Jackson said, because it was developed in anticipation of changes in the Federal welfare rules, rather than in response to mandates from the state and Federal governments. “This is a model,” Commissioner Jackson told a group of Social Services directors, public officials and journalists gathered in Culpeper last Friday. “What you have done here is almost unique. It’s not easy, to bring down turf barriers and overcome personality conflicts . . . There is every opportunity for what is being announced today to become a model for this country.” Beverly Bowen, director of Rappahannock County’s Department of Social Services, explained that the program is innovative because it abandons the “bandaid approach” to providing services. “We pooled money, people and expertise; all to work for the client.” The program, funded by state and Federal money and a $60,000 grant from the Job Training Partnership Administration, expects to serve 50 to 60 clients in the five counties of Planning District 9. See JOBS, p. A-8 fomofmal operations ark returns. By LOU HATTER Visitors to Shenandoah National Park last weekend were delighted when they found they didn’t have to pay admission, but were less pleased when they discovered that the park’s interpretive programs had also been cancelled by the shutdown of the Federal government. With Federal government operations across the country suspended at midnight, Friday, Oct. 5 by the failure of the Congress to pass a budget package and continuing resolution, park officials began the process <)f shutting down operations on Saturday morning, according to Alexander “Sandy” Rives, the park’s management assistant. . » On Saturday, he said, all “non-essential” personnel were told not to report to work. That left visitors’ centers and entrance stations unmanned, campgrounds closed, bathrooms locked and trash containers overflowing. About 12 rangers with law enforcement powers remained on duty through the weekend to assure the safety and well-being of the thousands who flocked to the park after being shut out of most of the tourist attractions in Washington, D.C. The rangers were “essential personnel,” he explained. “You can’t have 25-30,000 people in the park without someone there to protect property, health and safety ... It’s essentially a small city up there.” Mr. Rives said he had no firm figures on the number of visitors over the Columbus Day holiday weekend, but based on past experience and the reports of the rangers on duty, he estimated “about 25,000 vehicles” passed through the park last weekend. “The rangers said it was very busy.” ! See PARK, p. A-8 Slaughter votes 'No' on budget By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Calling the budget agreement presented to Congress early Monday morning a “rehash” of the first compromise rejected last week, Seventh District Congressman D. French Slaughter Jr. again voted against the measure. “This package was worse than the summit agreement we overwhelmingly rejected at one thirty in the morning last Friday,” the Culpeper Republican said. While there were some cosmetic changes with respect to the so-called Medicare ‘cuts,’ we are presented with billions more in tax increases and more committee ‘discretion’ in meeting savings targets. ” T The “discretion” Mr. Slaughter referred to was given to the Senate Finance Committee and the House Ways and Means Committee in determining actual amounts in the budget bill. The Congress approved overall targets for spending ceilings, and left specific program cuts and tax increases up to the committees, which are controlled by the Democrats. The measure calls for cuts of $40 billion this year, and a total of $500 billion in budget reductions over the next five years. Some of the most objectionable provisions of the package rejected last week, including an increase in taxes on gasoline, home heating oil, alcohol and tobacco, were missing from this version. The increase in Medicare premiums and reductions in benefits, which drew vociferous objections from the elderly, were also reduced by one-third. Despite the objection of Congressman Slaughter and other conservative Republicans, the measure was approved by the House of Representatives by a 250-164 See SLAUGHTER, p. A-ff Planners still debate town's subdivision rules By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock N«w» Staff Writer The town’s Planning Commissioners began reconsideration of the proposed subdivision ordinance in a work session Monday evening by deciding they would have to confine themselves to planning for the town within its current boundaries. Member Stewart Willis asked his fellow planners to consider whether they should be planning with the idea that the town might be expanded. Members Mitzie Young and Arthur Neufeld questioned whether the Planning Commission has the right to plan for a larger town. Chairman Louise vanDort pointed out that with the recent invitation to owners of lots split by the town county boundary to apply for inclusion within the town “nobody’s pushed for incorporating them. I think we have to deal with what we have. ” Susan Parrish, who represents the Town Council on the planning board, pointed out that there are only about seven landowners with enough land to create more subdivisions. The Planning Commission adopted the revised subdivision ordinance and sent it to the Town Council in July 1989. The council referred it to a committee which considered it and sent back recommendations last month. Town Councilman Ray Gooch, who wrote a memorandum stating the committee’s concerns with the proposed ordinance, attended the work session in case the members had questions about the points the committee had raised. He said he had talked with Charles Shepherd from See PLANNERS, p.

Smith says vision, ideas set him apart Energy policies, S&L bailout sit atop candidate’s agenda By MARY K. BLEWITT Arundel Newspaper* Staff Writer David Smith, the Democratic candidate for the 7th Congressional District, said during an appearance at Candidates’ Night held at the Warrenton Junior High School that his futuristic outlook is what sets him apart from mainstream Democrats. The 34-year-old Methodist minister and president of a solar energy firm, challenging GOP incumbent D. French Slaughter Jr., addressed about 50 people who attended the candidates’ forum sponsored by the Fauquier Times-Democrat and the Fauquier County Chamber of Commerce. Slaughter, who was invited to participate in a debate, was unable to attend due to a federal budget session. “I want to go to Washington and make a change,” Smith said during his opening remarks. The Democratic candidate reiterated his support for a woman’s right to choose an abortion. “When I counsel with people who have been victims of rape or incest, and I counsel with people that have had abortions, I recognize, from the pain that they’ve gone through and the stories that they tell, that it’s not something government can decide,” said the Democratic challenger. “Each individual case is so different.” Smith said that his abortion stance does not conflict with his ministerial role because the Methodist church’s official position is no government involvement. Smith, who has also stressed environmental protection in his campaign platform, said that the United States needs to seek the use of alternate forms of energy. “I see the role of federal government being more as one of education and one of becoming an environmental consumer,” he said. Use of solar energy and ethanol gas decrease our dependency On foreign oil, said Smith. “When people are dying in the Middle East, then the price of oil just got significantly higher — too high,” said the Democratic candidate. Smith said that the United States has increased its need for foreign oil. “And that’s just not acceptable,” he said. In response to a question asking him how he would address the budget crisis that has baffled federal lawmakers, Smith likened the budget situation to driving 60 miles per hour and ending up three feet from a brick wall. “That’s the situation that they’ve allowed themselves to get in. They’re three feet from a solid brick wall,” Smith said. “They needed to start six months ago,” he said. “We’ve got to get spending under control and our books in order.” Smith said that Congress needs to find ways to cut costs across the board rather than “trying to put the burden on a few very small groups.” Park announces fall schedule ■ S J-e With the coming of the fall color season, Shenandoah National Park has announced its schedule of fall activities. This schedule is now underway, but could be curtailed for lack of funding in the absence of an approved federal budget. “The present schedule will last through Oct. 15, and the public is invited to enjoy their National Park during one of its most beautiful periods,” said Park Superintendent J.W. Wade.

Health department offers flu shot immunizations By MARION FACCHINA, RN Public Health Nurse The flu season is rapidly approaching. Most people who catch the flu come down with an annoying week long cough, running nose, and body aches. However, each year many people become quite ill with the flu. A vaccine had been developed to protect you from the most common of the flus. There are dozens of viruses that can cause the “flu.” Each virus is named for the area of the world it originates from. This year the “Taiwan flu,” “Shanghai flu” and “Yamagata flu” are expected to be the most common in the United States this year. The vaccine being offered by the Rappahannock County Health Department and private doctors will protect you against all threeIf you would like to receive this yacciry/or find out more information please contact your doctor, or the Rappahannock County Health Department by calling 675-3516. The health department charges a $5.50 fee. This year both Medicare and Medicaid will cover the cost of the vaccine, so please bring your card. The health department will offer flu shot clinics on Wednesday, Oct. 10, 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and Wednesday, Oct. 24, 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., or you may call for an individual appointment if these times are inconvenient.

Fielding questions from the audience, Smith said he would not support limiting candidates terms for Congress, would favor simplifying tax forms and would not take honoraria if elected to Congress. As he has throughout his campaign, Smith criticized his opponent for not debating him. With Election Day less than a month away on Nov. 6, Smith expressed annoyance at not having the opportunity to face his opponent. “His absence tonight is extremely arrogant, when he should be out voicing his opinion, telling us where he stands on the issues,” said Smith. “I’ve started getting madder and madder at the absence of our congressman.” Slaughter’s campaign representative notified the Fauquier TimesDemocrat two weeks before that he would not be able to attend Candidates Night. Less than an hour before the event was held, a letter from Slaughter was sent by facsimile from his campaign office, saying that the House of Representatives would be in session to address the federal budget crisis. “I should think that if I left Washington at this critical time to campaign for office, I would be accused of neglecting my duties and my constituents’ interests, and deservingly so,” said Slaughter. “Indeed, I feel that nothing is more important to the future of our country than to get our fiscal house in order and I will remain on the job as long as it takes to accomplish this vital goal,” Slaughter said. Rappahannock News photo/Lou Halier THE COMMUNITY SERVICE CENTER offers identification cards to seniors as part of a program which includes discounts at many area businesses. The CSC is beginning a drive to include Rappahannock merchants in the program. Recently, Lilly Peyton (left) and Ethel Bailey had their photos taken by Theresa Reynolds (right), as RSVP coordinator Jeanie McNear watches. For information about the program, contact Mrs. McNear (675-3329). Merchants encouraged to offer senior discount Retired Senior Volunteer Program staff and volunteers of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Community Services Center will be approaching area merchants and businesses between Oct. 1 and Oct. 15 to enroll them in the Senior Citizen Discount Program. This program, part of the services to senior citizens offered by the Center, is designed to promote awareness between businesses and older persons in Rappahannock, Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison and Orange counties. Participating businesses will receive a red-and-white Senior Citizen Discount Program sticker to place in their window or on their door, and will be listed in the “Voice of Experience,” which reaches more than 3,500 households in the Planning District, as well as in press releases to local newspapers. Sallie Stemple Morgan, Aging Services Coordinator, says that the Discount Program serves to “help the older person to manage more successfully on a fixed income” while providing local merchants and businesses with “increased business, a feeling of satisfaction in helping the elderly, plus beneficial promotional tactics.” Seniors can receive a Senior Discount ID Card to validate their eligibility for this program, and will at the same time be given a list of participating businesses throughout the five counties. Merchants who are already offering such discounts on their own are encouraged to enroll so that they will be included on the listing. There is no charge to the merchants or businesses for this service. Seniors receiving Senior Discount Cards are asked to make a $2 donation to defray costs. Residents of Rappahannock, Culpeper, Fauquier, Madison and Orange counties and buinesses or merchants wishing to learn more about this program can call (703) 825-3100, (703) 347-0440 or (703) 6721717 on weekdays.

Tfie Audit V-/ Bureai Fire safety first This week, Oct. 7-13, is National Fire Prevention Week. The annual observance falls at an appropriate time of the year, as fall’s cool evenings tempt people to build a crackling blaze in the fireplace or stoke up the woodstove. Unfortunately, too often they yield to temptation before having their chimneys and flues cleaned and inspected, and the result is a chimney fire. They can quickly become fullblown structure fires, particularly in older homes where the chimney may be deteriorated from age. We urge our readers to help their local fire departments by having their chimneys cleaned and inspected before lighting that first fire of the year. The volunteers are always ready to respond to an emergency, but they’d rather not visit their neighbors on the back of a fire truck. And while we’re offering reminders, this is a good time to make sure that the fire and rescue emergency numbers (987;8525 or 675-3331) are posted near each telephone, along with dear directions to the home. Those numbers and directions -ai»e invaluable in an emergency, and could save a life. A salute to 4-H - In this issue, we join with Americans across the nation in saluting 4-H during its annual observance of National 4-H Week. In the more than 50 years since 4-H was organized as an adjunct of the Extension Service, millions of American youngsters have participated in the wide variety of programs offered under its aegis. It has fostered leadership, and taught responsibility, and nurtured self-confidence in several generations of American youth. Though it is often thought of as a rural program, there are 4-H clubs active in many U.S. cities as well. And all those youth, whether from country hamlets or city highrises, have benefited from their experiences in 4-H. The testimonials offered by some of the Rappahannock County youngsters now involved in 4-H tell the story better than we can. We can only add that we wish the 4-H program many more years of continued success, and offer our thanks to all the adult leaders and Extension agents whose efforts have made that success possible.

Letters to the editor Divorced military wives seek their day in court To the editor: The citizens of Virginia have a right to know that in a closed-door meeting members of the Subcomittee on Military Personnel and Compensation, Committee on Armed Services of the U.S. House of Representatives, voted to deny military wives, divorced before June 26, 1981, the right to go back into a state domestic relations court in order to petition for a pro-rata share of the pension they helped to earn. Two of the 13 members of the Subcommittee, Congressman Owen Pickett (2nd District) and Congressman Herb Bateman (1st District), ranking Republican, voted with the majority thereby denying due process to certain long-term military wives cheated out of the pension they helped to earn. Mr. Bateman obviously took the lead in promoting the discriminatory bill, since the American Retirees Assocation (an organization composed mainly of divorced military members and opposed to the most basic legal security for military wives) urged itsmembers in its most recent newsletter to write a letter to Mr. Bateman in order to thank him “for his support in terminating payments based on reopened divorce cases.” The reason the American Retirees Association has manned the barricades on this issue is that some ex-military wives have successfully petitioned in certain states for a prorata share of the pensions they helped to earn. Lawfully constituted state domestic relations courts have heard favorably their appeal and awarded them, in what is called a “partition suit,” a share of the pension they should have been granted at the time of the original divorce. Only a very small number of military wives have been so fortunate; but Mr. Pickett and Mr. Bateman, not satisfied to let state domestic relations courts do their job, want to enact a Federal prohibition against any military wife from every being able to go back into court with a hope for justice if divorced before June 26, 1981. I would like both Mr. Pickett and Mr. Bateman to tell Virginia voters why a woman should be able to go back into court and petition for justice if divorced after June 26, 1981; but if divorced one day or more earlier, should be denied forevermore by Congressional fiat even the possibility of having her case heard. Many were victims of outright fraud. Constitutionally, there is no legal statute of limitations on fraud cases. I am sure both Mr. Pickett and Mr. Bateman know that prior to the passage of Virginia’s strong Equitable Distribution Statute, Virginia was known as the “dumping ground for old military wives.” Military members planning a divorce would bring their wives to the Old Dominion, divorce them, and be absolutely certain that their wives would be denied a part of their commonly earned pension. Or, military members would bring their wives to Virginia, they would move to another “congenial” state, refuse to let their wives accompany them, file for divorce charging desertion, and walk away with all assets of the marriage, most particularly the military pension The Committee for Justice and Equality has been fighting for ten years to get a bill through Congress that would give these old, poor, often sick women just the right to their day in court. Now, far from passing such an equitable and fair bill, at the behest of members such as Mr. Pickett and Mr. Bateman, the House of Representatives is telling these women that not only will they not get their day in court in Virginia, but the bill will see to it that military wives are denied the most elementary due process in every state in the country. To compound the travesty, the few fortunate women who have been back into state courts and have been granted justice in their partition suits and have been awarded a share of the pension they helped to earn, would have their share taken away once the law is enacted since the statute would “apply to judgments issued before, on, or after the date of enactment of this Act." The end result of this is that those checks would have them stopped; the portions that have been lawfully awarded through due proc ess in state domestic relations courts would arbitrarily be taken from them and revert back to their military husbands. No wonder the ARA thanks Mr. Bateman! This is the kind of “justice” for military wives that both Mr. Pickett and Mr. Bateman support. It is understandable that they wanted to vote on this bill to be done in secret conference. Mr. Pickett and Mr. Bateman have a right to “vote their conscience.” However, I do not believe that many Virginians will agree with Mr. Pickett and Mr. Bateman that it is “conscionable” to deny older military wives the right to their day in court, or to take away pensions already awarded. Virginia citizens also have a right to know how their representatives vote on such grave ethical issues that affect the quality of life of thousands of military wives who served our country for so many years. If Virginia voters do not agree with Mr. Pickett’s and Mr. Bateman’s definition of justice for military wives, they also have a right — the right to vote them right out of office. DORIS MOZLEY Norfolk The writer is the chairwoman of the Committee for Justice and Equality for the Military Wife. War not acceptable To the editor: From the news stories I read, I have concluded that our decisionmakers have decided that within a few weeks, we or someone must instigate a war. The war must be started, in part, because we cannot expect to maintain our planned 200,000 military personnel, their war machines and support systems, indefinitely in the deserts of Arabia and the unfamiliar world into which they have been projected. It is almost as if we had sent an expeditionary force to the ocean floor with a finite supply of oxygen. If and when war is our condition, we will not know about all that happens. As you may have heard, truth is war’s first casualty. But we will learn enough to make us wonder1 what sort of idiots human beings must be to think war is a rational means to solve problems. Our dead and injured, serious as they may be, won’t be the principal ones. It is the Kuwaitis, Iraqis, Jordanians, Vietnamese, Egyptians, Bangladeshi, Sri Lankans, Indians. Pakistanis, Phillipines and Koreans, perhaps even Israelis, Syrians, and Turks who will constitute the majority of war’s victims. In this sense, any war will be a world war. As many women and children will die as will men and members of armed forces. I don’t say this because I believe women and children are more precious than men, but rather because war propagandists, men, mostly, tend to associate war and death and injury with men. We need to tell President Bush, Senators Warner and Robb, and Congressman Slaughter that we don’t want and don’t accept a war in the Middle East. You can send the same letter to all of them. Write today. Time is short. It may do no good, but it can do no harm, and those who are free to decide for war need to hear from us, who will be their prisoners of war.

An open letter to the School Board (Editor’s note: The following letter was presented to the Rappahannock County School Board at its Oct. 9 meeting. It was written by the Rappahannock County Elementary School Parent-Teacher Organization’s Curriculum Committee. More than 50 parents assisted in drafting the letter, according to committee chairwoman Laurie Marshall.) As parents with children in Rappahannock’s public schools we are seeking ways to work with teachers, administrators and the school board to maximize learning among our young people. We are requesting the school board’s guidance in how we can be of greatest use to the elementary school. We would also like to give encouragement to current developments in the school system’s approach to education. As you are aware, our rapidly changing world with its complex problems make multi-disciplined solutions more necessary than ever. We feel that the school system’s move to make Problem Solving, Interdisciplinary Learning and Cooperative Learning more central to the teaching of basic skills prepares our children well for the future. Teacher support As parents we feel it is our responsibility to support teachers in their difficult and important job. We realize that parent help must be coordinated in a systematic manner or else it becomes a nuisance. Here are some possible approaches: • The formation of a Teacher-Parent Task Force to design a parent training program. • Parents can continue to help with mechanical jobs, in a more coordinated way, for the specific purpose of freeing teachers to think, design and research. • A parent-run monthly assembly can be designed in cooperation with the faculty. The assembly would be staffed by parents, so that teachers could have an extra shared planning period. • A call to parents has been made to become registered substitutes and volunteer their labor for teacher training days. We greatly value learning opportunities for our faculty. We appreciate the School Board’s support of the Master’s Degree Program. The administration’s encouragement of teachers to visit other schools as part of their in-service training provides another excellent learning opportunity. The fact that the superintendent is participating in a Fellowship Program sends the message to the faculty and students that he, too, is deeply engaged in learning. This kind of positive leadership is commendable. We believe our teachers should have more flexibility in how they achieve the agreed upon learning goals of their grade and subject. They are intelligent professionals whose problem-solving skills and creativity are daily examples to our children. We value their knowledge and their ability to choose how their students can best learn a subject. We want them to be able to vary the time, materials and resources they use in teaching so they can incorporate the learning styles and interests of the children. As with any structure, constant evaluation is necessary to determine if learning goals are being achieved. We would like to share our enthusiasm for what Rappahannock teachers are currently doing to excite and encourage learning in their students. Problem solving One of the primary skills our children will need is effective problem solving. This process requires analytical reasoning and creative thinking. When students practice skills using real-life problems, an academic exercise takes on a greater purpose than itself. Motivation is increased and memory is strengthened. We applaud teaching that is reality-based where real products for a real audience are created. For example, at the elementary school teachers have used writing exercises to comfort a hospitalized grandparent, to send valentines to a Veterans’ Hospital, to communicate with Congressmen, and to send their thoughts to the servicemen in Saudi Arabia. Two other excellent examples are: the high school’s Science Fair, which asks students to present the results of original investigation to the public; and the high school’s Technology Fair. We love to see investigation of and solutions to real problems encouraged as reading, writing, scientific, math and social study skills are being developed. More ideas include: raising funds for trips and projects through original products (the PTO school calendar and seventh grade Cookbook); and communicating with people in the world who are affected by or knowledgeable about the subject at hand. We hope that this increased emphasis on problem solving in the curriculum will be expanded. Interdisciplinary learning Since reality demands that problem solving frequently uses multi-disciplined approaches, we are happy that this year teachers now have scheduled time to communicate with each other at the elementary school. The coordination between English, Social Studies and Science among the seventh grade teachers is an exciting development. We hope that teamwork among teachers will increase. We ask that teachers have time to explore the relationship between disciplines — using language arts, history, math, science, drama, visual art, and physical games to investigate a theme across the curriculum. This inter-related approach results in children understanding where parts fit into a whole instead of experiencing many unrelated parts. The Spanish class and math and reading labs incorporate these apporaches with great success. Reading programs that begin with meaningful language experience, followed by skill-building is another excellent step in this direction. Cooperative learning We love it when teachers get support from their students to achieve the learning goals of the class. This includes structuring teams in which faster students work with slower students and older students help younger students. Individualized attention is provided by the helping student, who is also learning the material very thoroughly. Learning to achieve a goal as a team is excellent preparation for the 21st Century. This team approach is currently being practiced by many Rappahannock teachers. At the elementary school fourth graders were assigned to bring in 101 objects from home to teach kindergarten students mathematical concepts. Fifth, sixth and seventh graders are involved in reading to the lower grades; in a fifth grade class, students work with a “Spelling Buddy,” and the French class at the high school also uses the team approach.The cooperative learning approach takes into consideration the fact that every child learns in a unique way. We all know that researchers have identified many different learning styles (i.e. visual, tactile, auditory, social, mechanical, analytical, etc.). Education that only addresses the analytical style leaves out many children. If a subject is presented using more than one approach, the chances are increased that more students will absorb the material. We want our children to learn early-on how they learn, with the different kinds of intelligences respected and made use of. Since the amount of information is now doubling every six years, we can best prepare them by fostering an understanding of their individual learning style. Summary Thank you for taking the time to consider our request for guidance and to recognize our appreciation for the creative and caring work of our faculty. Accompanying this letter is the PBS special “Learning in America,” (a copy is available for borrowing by the public at the Rappahannock Library). It portrays schools that have incorporated Problem Solving, Interdisciplinary Learning, and Cooperative Learning as system-wide educational policy with great success. We would like to hear feedback from you about the ideas we have offered for parental support and the video. We hope to participate in an on-going dialogue with you and the teaching staff so that our contributions as parents will be useful and focused. We strive for a community of adults and young people that works in concert to prepare as best we can for an uncertain future.

Day REALTOR WHEN PARENTS HELP Some first time home buyers (actually 20%) are fortunate enough to buy their first homes with help from their parents. In these cases, par ents typically provide half the down payment for would-be homeowners who otherwise would not have savings and incomes large enough to qua! ify for a mortgage. Parents tend to make a gift rather than a loan in such cases because too much debt can count against prospective borrowers when qualifying for a loan. As long as the future owners ante up a fourth of the down payment, lenders don't care if family generosity makes up the difference. How ever, they WILL ask for a gift letter, a simple document acknowledging that parents do not expect repayment On the other hand, if there is an actual LOAN being made from parent to child, it should be secured with the same sort of paperwork that a bank would use. So that the interest repaid you will be fully deductible as a home acquisition loan. If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate please stop in at EILEEN M.

Shedding Light On ti ir ni ini/iniz n tin/ i nc OUIII in iu U-ULI i oucNnm cniin i i n-i iui it—i iui i Ever come home to find your electronic clock blinking, even though the electricity is working fine? Potomac Edison would like to shed some light on the cause of this inconvenient phenomenon, known as "momentary outages.” Although momentary outages have always been an unavoidable part of every power system, you may be more aware of them today than ever before. That’s because today’s modern appliances are more sensitive to interruptions in power supply. Even a few seconds of interrupted electricity are enough to temporarily disrupt appliances such as electronic clocks, VCRs, computers and the like. Momentary outages can be annoying, but they serve a valuable purpose: They help temporarily break the circuit when a problem occurs, such as tree branches touching a wire. The momentary interruption allows the problem to clear, protecting the overall system trom major damage. This helps prevent longer outages. While momentary outages used to go unnoticed, today ’s high-tech appliances just don’t miss a blink. Some appliances are made with built-in battery backup. You may wish to ask for them when you replace your equipment. In the meantime, our system will be working to detect problems as quickly as possible and to minimize longer outages.

He is a farmer in the truest sense, for his entire income is derived from his 300acre farm located in the F.T. Valley on Route 231, where he lives with his wife, Ruth. He is a Rappahannock native, in fact, was bom and reared on this very farm. 15 YEARS AGO October 16, 1975 The pavilion at the Rappahannock Recreation Center has been completed and accepted by the RecCenter Association. President T.

The action came in response to new state law which took effect October 1. Formerly, Sperryville attorney James W. Fletcher served as the official tie breaker for all local governing bodies. Under the new law, the entity responsible for school board appointments — in this case the supervisors — must choose a school board tie breaker; separate from the individual who fills that capacity for the board of supervisors.

Learning Hi! My name is Michael Gilkey. I live at Chester Gap and I’ve been in the 4-H program for four years. The * things I like about 4-H are new friends, crafts, camping, and I get to taste foods made from different countries. —Michael Gilkey New friends 4-H is a big part of many teens’ and pre-teens’ lives in Rappahannock County. There are many different clubs and organizations that branch from it and even some more prestigious positions such as Ambassador — which is what I am! A 4-H Ambassador travels to different clubs and organizations in their county and district to spread the 4-H word. They explain all the different aspects of being a 4-H member and/or counselor. Travelling to Richmond to visit General Assembly and sit in on an i' • - actual session is another great part of being an Ambassador. Being in 4-H for eight years now, I believe it has taught me a lot of things that will help me with my fiii ture. That’s why I believe 4-H should be a part of your life. — Holly Moffett Young archers Rappahannock News photo/Lou Hatter A VARIETY OF ARCHERY styles is demonstrated by these 4-H campers. From left, Danny Tupper, Jeff Atkins, Kirk Davis and Berkeley Hobson take aim at the targets, during a class taught by Cheryl Taylor. What 4-H means A learning experience I look back on my involvement with 4-H as a chance to broaden many horizons. For me it’s meant wonderful new friends, from right here in the mountains of Rappahannock, all the way to the shores of Virginia Beach. There have also been numerous opportunities for my leadership skills to grow, from secretary of our Teen Club to representative of the Northern District this year. Good things have risen from these experiences outside 4-H too. This brief paragraph sounds like an ad for 4-H and I guess truly it is. I have grown from my experiences in and out of the county in 4-H and I know everyone else can and should give themselves a chance to grow in these ways too. — Melissa Pagano 4-H builds character The 4-H program of the Cooperative Extension system provides educational opportunities for nearly 4.6 million youth. They live in both urban and rural areas and represent all social, ethnic and economic backgrounds. One of the greatest strengths of 4-H is the diversity which enables it to address the needs of youth. Through 4-H young people develop the leadership, initiative and responsibility they will need to function as citizens in a democratic society. The 4-H emphasis on development of people through practical teaching is needed more than ever today; in the future, that need will grow throughout rural America, in rural non-farm America and in urban America. 4-H is the only youth program which has direct access to the knowledge, theory and research - all of the advances - of the land-grant university system. 4-H continues to teach the newest methods of agriculture to rural youth. Yet, as ours has become more and more an urban nation, 4-H has reached out to meet needs as they evolve in the changing environment. Today, 4-H is challenging new generations of youth with programs in consumer education, computer science, engineering, energy, .nutrition, marine science and space technology, as well as with contemporary programming in such traditional areas as plant and soil science, veterinary science, commodity marketing, conservation and production agriculture. Extension is exploring new ways to deliver 4-H experiences using the latest in educational, electronic and technological advances. 4-H builds better citizens, teaching values and developing skills necessary to lead a good and profitable life. 4-H is anchored firmly in basic fundamental values of human worth ind individual dignity that form the foundation of our democratic government and our system of private enterprise. The learn-by-doing methods of 4H result not only in development of practical skills but also in development of sound judgment, a sense of responsibility, individual initiative and style of leadership. The 4-H experience, in which youth participate with substantial autonomy, creates changes that make a difference in life. 4-H concentrates on developing the individual, strengthening the family, and improving the community producing responsible, communityminded, concerned and competent adults. 4-H is filling a vital role of instilling in the minds of youth an appreciation for the importance of food and fiber production, marketing and consumption and how it impacts on each of our lives on a daily basis. 4-H helps young people improve their self image, make wise decisions, set realistic goals and document their experiences leading toward accomplishments of these goals. The land-grant university base for 4-H makes possible exploration of new 4-H experiences using the latest in educational, electronic and technological advances. Prevention of inappropriate behavior can be achieved through the very kind of pro-social environment 4-H seeks to provide. The 4-H experience, indeed, leaves a lasting impression on its members, producing responsible, community-minded, concerned adults whose positive impact on our country and the world is immeasurable. All major studies relating to problems of children and youth confirm that 4-H is right on target with its philosophy of developing the child or individual, strengthening the family and improving the community. It is a philosophy that has remained unchanged through the years and withstood the test of time - a philosophy as sound for tomorrow as it is for today or was for yesterday. Notjust cows and sheep Contrary to belief, 4-H is not all cows and sheep. The first time I was asked to join 4-H I didn’t do it because I did not want to raise livestock. But there is a whole other section of 4-H. You can do things like the 4-H “Share the Fun” show, where you do contests for acting and musical talent. You can also do outdoor training where you can hike or canoe. 4-H is fun for everyone. — Tim Mahoney Congratulations Rappahannock ^ 4-H'ers!

Forms can be obtained in the principal’s office at RCHS and Wakefield or at the Extension Office in Washington. -H Makes a World of Difference National 4-H Week OCTOBER 7 -13 Local clubs spread word about 4-H programs By HELEN SMITH Extension Home Economist This is the week that 4-H’ers across the country celebrate as National 4-H Week. It’s an opportunity to tell the folks in our community about 4-H, to thank the donors who sponsor scholarships and events throughout the year, and to recruit new 4-H members and 4-H leaders. There are currently five 4-H clubs in the county: the Teen Club, Amissville, Chester Gap, Horse and Pony, and Livestock clubs. “We’d like to have more! If we had more parents or adult volunteer leaders to work with a club,” stated Helen Smith, Extension Home Economist. There are two types of clubs: Project Clubs, like the Horse and Pony and Livestock Clubs. These clubs meet once a month and conduct an educational program on that one project. There are lots of project materials available for 4-H leaders to use on subjects like pet care, photography, sewing, foods and nutrition, forestry, electricity, wildlife, woodworking and computers, if you’d like to start a new club. Community Clubs, like the ones we have at Chester Gap and Amissville. These clubs meet monthly to conduct an educational workshop, hear a guest speaker, or occasionally take a field trip. The community clubs don’t concentrate on one project, but have a variety of programs to interest all the members and all ages. The community clubs also emphasize community service liking picking up trash along the highway or visiting senior citizens in thenneighborhood. “We have children in the Woodville, Sperryville, and Washington communities that would like to join a 4-H club, but we need an adult to be the leader for those clubs. If you can help or know someone who can, call the Extension Office at 675-3619,” added Tommy Williams, Extension Agriculture Agent. In addition, we have a countywide 4-H Teen Club in Rappahannock County. This club is for youth ages 13 and up from all over the county. They meet monthly for an educational program and participate in the highway clean up project as their community service project. Have you noticed the blue signs as you enter the town of Washington? Most of the 4-H Teen Club programs have related to the outdoors, conservation, recycling, and preserving our environment. They have a field trip to the Chesapeake Bay planned on Nov. 10. “The Teen Club members are very valuable to 4-H because they serve as our teen leaders for 4-H camps, 4-H Ambassadors, International Ambassadors, and other leadership positions,” commented Mrs. Smith. This is one of the benefits — learning to accept responsibility and develop leadership skills. The Teen club welcomes new members for 1990-91. If you are between the ages of 13-19 or have friends who are, invite them to come to the 4-H Teen Club meetings on the first Monday of each month at 4:30 p.m. at the Extension Office. Janice Moffett is the volunteer adult leader working with the Teen Club and has assisted with numerous field trips and community service projects. The other 4-H clubs meet as follows: The 4-H Horse and Pony Club meets the second Monday of each month at 7:30 p.m. at the home of 4H leader Birgitt Thornhill. For details on Horse and Pony Club programs, call Mrs. Thornhill at 9878200. The 4-H Livestock Club meets on the third Monday at 7:30 p.m. in member’s homes. Their leaders are Toni and Randall Updike at 6753747; BiU Starks at 675-3630; and Nancy Reeve at 987-8944. All youth interested in learning about livestock and raising cattle, sheep, or swine are encouraged to participate. Chester Gap 4-H Club: Maybelle Gilkey at 635-5472 is the leader for the 4-H community club in Chester Gap. It meets dn the second Wednesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. at the Chester Gap Fire Hall. The Amissville 4-H Club meets the fourth Thursday of each month at 7 p.m. at Bethel Baptist Church. Jennifer Gray (937-5092), Linda Mallory (937-5039), and Rose Barney (937-6109) are the volunteer leaders who work with the youth in the Amissville 4-H Club. In addition to the community and project clubs in the county, there are other 4-H programs and educational activities in which local youth can participate. These include the school-enrichment programs like the Embryology Project and the Stock Market Game; the 4-H Share-theFun Contest; 4-H Presentation and Public Speaking contests; the Culpeper-Madison-Rappahannock Farm Show; 4-H camps; 4-H workshops; statewide 4-H Congress at Virginia Tech; and serving as a 4-H Ambassador or International delegate. For information on any of these programs, call the Rappahannock Extension Office (675-3619.)

Gourmet peanut sale benefits 4-H Foundation By HELEN SMITH Home Extension Agent The Virginia 4-H Foundation will again this year sponsor the statewide sale of Gourmet Home Cooked Peanuts. The sale will continue through Oct. 13. The nuts are available in salted and unsalted varieties. Significant improvements have been made in the product to improve flavor and texture. All of the Foundation profits ($9,311) from the sale last year are being returned to the clubs, counties, and specialists in the mini and matching grants program. The Trustees feel strongly that these funds were raised in the counties, and they should receive most of the benefits from the grants program. This year the Trustees again plan to award the Foundation profits in its grant program. The greater the sales, then the greater the return to the counties. Rappahannock 4-R’ers are participating in this fundraiser to raise money for their local clubs. “If you desire to purchase a can of peanuts and support 4-H programs (it’s tax deductible) contact a local 4-H’er or stop by the Extension Office in Washington. Helping others 4-H experience offers many opportunities in life to help others and yurself. I have participated in various 4-H camps, not only as a camper, but as a counselor as well. While in Germany (as a 4-H International Ambassador) I found the lessons I learned while in 4-h to be the most valuable ones. Responsibility, communication, caring, positive attitude and love always have helped me through rough times and made the good ones even better. 4-H camp has always been one of my fondest memories. Every summer I hope to add one on to them. The times I’ve had at camp keep me coming back. If you’ve never been, go. — Alice Reeve Congratulations to Rappahannock 4-H’ers SUNSET HILLS FARM <yil I hie hJoolIiiJh of lhe 03/ue rRidcje flCounlains LEON & BETTY HUTCHESON Washington, Virginia 22747 (703) 987-8804 Congratulations 4-H'ers Sperryville Corner Store Meats and Groceries Randolph, Dorothy & Pam Clater Sperryville, Virginia 987-8185 CONGRATULATIONS to all 4-H'ers We are proud to continue to support you! pr The A School House Restaurant ftout«522 *$*«***« ******' »«» B&B Service Center Automotive Repair 24-Hour Wrecker Service Washington, Va. 987-8686 Make it NAPA BRAND new!

Some of the questions were about off-site septic treatment and joint septic systems to serve clustered housing. Mr. Gooch said Mr. Shepherd suggested the planners not create any new lot which won’t support a waste disposal system. “They would like us not to get into community septic systems,” he added. Mr. Gooch reported that Mr. Shepherd also said that Washington is “blessed with better soils than other areas,” and he said the town should have a new soil survey done. “Did he indicate why?” Col. Willis asked. “To find out what existing septic fields have done,” Mr. Gooch said. “We have all these curbstone experts. Whenever a new building is proposed, everyone says “that’s the worst soil in town’.” Mr. Neufeld asked if it would be possible to get a grant to have the soil study done. “I think grants for that are pretty well gone,” Mr. Gooch replied. When the revised ordinance was submitted to the Town Council, it called for no new private roads. “Private streets, I think it’s won derful that they deleted that,” Ms vanDort said. Mrs. Parrish said they would have to add a provision for private streets back in the ordinance because the Virginia Department of Transportation is only willing to take over a road if it serves at least three houses owned by unrelated people. Small subdivisions would not be able to build roads that meet that requirement, she said. “Private streets are a problem ultimately,” Mrs. Young said. She said a bank will not make a loan for building a house to be served by a private street unless there is a maintenance agreement. The planners assigned the job of drafting a revision that would allow private streets only in cases where public streets could not be created to a “drafting committee” that consists of Col. Willis. The planners adjourned when they got to the section on “cul do sacs.” “I lived on one. I never want to see another,” Ms. VanDort said. Mrs. Parrish said “cul do sacs” would probably have to be allowed in the ordinance because the highway department won’t take over a street unless is has a place to turn around a school bus or snow removal equipment. The planners will continue with this issue at their regular meeting on Monday, Oct. 22. Jobs Continued from page A-1 There are no expectations of quick success, according to W. Floyd Blanton, director of the Piedmont Job Training Administration. “It may take one, two or even three years for clients to receive the benefits of training and employment.” The experiences of programs tried in the past, Mr. Blanton said, have taught the necessity of education as a component of job training programs — particularly for the long-term unemployed. “We are finding basic skills deficiencies more evident.” The result has been a more “holistic” approach to job training, which stresses “basic educational skills.” The impetus for the program was the Family Support Act of 1988, which mandated that welfare recipients, with certain narrow exceptions, would no longer be allowed to receive assistance without making concrete efforts toward gaining employment. Along with that change came relaxations of the benefit limits to allow the continuation of payments while the recipients are in transition from public assistance to private employment. Eligible individuals include any recipient of Aid to Families with Dependent Children who is less than 24 years old without a high school diploma, mothers whose youngest child is within two years of ineligibility for aid, and those who hae received ADC payments for 36 continuous months. Residents meeting those eligibility requirements will be served first, with any ADC recipient also eligible I depending on the availability of funds. The program includes an assessment of each client, followed by counseling with a local social worker to tailor a program to that individual’s needs. The program includes educational services, tutoring and classes leading to a G.E.D. diploma, as well as daycare, transportation and counseling. Once the clients begin the work phase of the program, they are taught basic interpersonal skills, including how to get along with others on the job and what is expected of a person in an employment situation. The program will be headquartered in Culpeper, because of its central location to the five counties of PD 9. Most of the training will take place there, and the program is trying to arrange with the Community Services Board to use its shuttle bus runs to transport the clients who live in the other counties. Commissioner Jackson acknowledged that the program “will probably cost an arm and a leg.” But, he added, “the state cannot afford not to do this. This is an investment in our future. You can’t write off an entire generation . . . certainly not everybody is going to be a success — but there should be some." To the naysayers who question whether the program will work, or how it differs from similar attempts in the past, Commissioner Jackson said, “This program has to do with looking into the future and seeing what will happen if we don’t educate our job pool. It doesn’t matter why they are not making it.” County residents who are interested in more information about the Jobs/JTPA program should contact Mrs. Bowen at the Department of Social Services (675-3313).

Park Continued from page A-1 .• — — . — ■ H ' ■ ** The process by which the government shut down leaves some discretion for each agency to determine how exactly to carry it out, Mr. Rives said. In Shenandoah, that was interpreted to allow a “phased shutdown," and although services weij halted and campers were notified that they might have to move oh Saturday, the campgrounds went not actually closed until Monday. '' " However, there were no guidety hikes, interpretive tours, evening programs or any of the other activ* ities normally available to park vis£ tors, and the park’s visitor centeiS were locked all weekend. And, sine} the entrance stations were not manned, the normal admission fee tZ the park of $5 per vehicle was ndt collected during one of the busie$ weekends of the year. Mr. Rives said without visitor counts he could not estimate the lost revenue for the park. When he wa$ asked if the $100,000 figure quotefl by the Associated Press and Waste ington Fost was accurate, he re* plied, “it’s a good guess.” He explained that it is difficult to estfi mate how many of the vehicles ma$ have purchased year-long admission cards, as well as senior citizens entitled to reduced admission prices! “It’s hard to know.” He said that park officials were “more concerned about the level of service” as opposed to the lost revenue. “We are thinking about the visw tors who were not able to fillip experience the park.” Though the services provided by the National Park Service were pared to the essentials, other facili* ties which are operated under a fraiv chise agreement with ARA Skyline Inc., including restaurants, lodger and concession stands, were not a£ fected by the Federal order. They remained open all weekend. i Mr. Rives said he and other Park Service officials were impressed by the attention devoted to how the budget impasse affected the national park system. He pointed to numerous interviews done by the national media with visitors to the parks. “People waited for a year for their vacation, went to that spot, and then couldn’t eiyoy it. People were upset about the shutdown. In the big picture . . . the American people are pretty supportive of their parks, and they use them. “That makes us feel good — and it’s important and significant that we didn’t just shut the door,” Mr. Rives said. On Tuesday, with the passage cjf another continuing resolution allowing the government to operate unti Oct. 15, the park resumed its normal schedule of activities, with visitor! centers and entrance stations ope$ and staffed again. Beyond that, Mr. Rives said* “it’s anybody’s guess” how th$ park’s operations will be affected b possible budget cuts. “We’ll jus| have to wait and see.” * Slaughter Continued from page A-1 vote, and by Monday evening, aftep hours of back-room lobbying, a simi lar package won the Senate’s apprdr val. According to the Associated Press, President Bush has indicated to Republican lawmakers that he ii> tends to sign the compromise budget agreement into law. Congressman Slaughter said h$ based his objection, and his vote, on the tax increases included in th$ budget, without which the Federal government would have shut down* The package approved by the Con* gress includes an increase in the tai rate paid by the most affluent, fa} vored by the Democrats, in ex} change for a cut in the tax rate on capital gains, which President Buslt has repeatedly stated he supports. ] Registering his objection to th^ package, Rep. Slaughter said, “I d<J not understand why this budget package provides for more than $68 billion in new spending when we an} trying to bring down a deficit that ig estimated to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $300 billion.” “On top of that,” the Congress} man continued, “those who are ar} ranging these budget package^ continue to insist that recessionary tax increases (they seem to be esti* mated anywhere from $119 billion id nearly $140 billion) are somehow nol[ going to negatively impact our weakened economy. * “My constituents are not under? taxed, the Federal government spends too much, and I find it impos* sible to justify voting for tax in* creases on hard-working families when the government has more thaA a trillion dollars to spend.” Rep. Slaughter’s opponent in his bid for a fourth term, Democrat D£ vid M. Smith of Winchester, said h£ supports approval of the continuing resolution to allow goverment funotions to continue. J As for Mr. Smith’s position on the latest compromise, Mr. Woodward said, “We’ll just have to wag. and see how the pain is spread around.”

I After 20 years, Kramer's designs still evolving By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Though cabinetmaker Peter Kramer will open an exhibition Saturday celebrating his 20th anniversary, the master craftsman’s mind is still looking toward the design of his next piece. His exhibit, “Recent Thoughts — New Furniture Design,” will include a collection of some 50 pieces “that explore some original contemporary concepts of color, carving, line, assemblage and function and their effect on pieces of traditional design.” Walking through the Kramer and Eiland Woodworking shop last week, as the firm’s craftsmen put the finishing touches on several of the pieces for the show, his excitement was obvious as he showed off some of the concepts referred to in the exhibition invitation. “Caged legs” and “captured knees” became less mysterious when seen as part of a table or dresser. And in the basement showroom, where many of the pieces will be on display, Mr. Kramer explained how his philosophy of design evolved from those first days as a craftsman in a workshop he set up in his mother’s basement in suburban New Jersey. He began working with wood as a teenager, watching one of his Sunday School teachers who made furniture in his garage workshop. His brother-in-law had some power tools, and encouraged the young man’s interest in woodworking as well. “Those years in my brother-in-law’s shop developed an interest that that’s what I wanted to do with my life,” he recalled. But at that time, there were no schools which taught aspiring craftsmen. And, since Mr. Kramer was college-bound, he attended Rutgers and received a degree in marketing — even as he realized, “all I wanted to do was to make furniture.” His family, meanwhile, told him, Well, that s a great hobby, but you really ought to work for a big corporation — you can make furniture when you retire.” Finally, he said, he took the plunge and began his career as a cabinetmaker. His first shop, where he designed mainly traditional style pieces, had ceilings so low that he had to take the pieces outside to put them together. From the beginning, he remembered, he resisted the temptation to produce “reproduction” pieces using drawings and measurements. The furniture was traditional in style, “because I liked that kind of furniture.” It was, he explained, “as if I had lived 200 years ago that’s what kind I would have done.” From those traditional beginnings, Mr. Kramer’s designs progressed “geometrically, one little idea perfected becoming the germ of 10 more ideas.” The progression also moved into more complicated designs — and away from the early American style. Though his more recent pieces still have many of the proportions of traditional furniture, the designs and artistic embellishments reveal a craftsman who has broken the bonds with that journeyman who designed furniture as if he had lived 200 years ago. “I still epjoy and appreciate that,” he said. “It’s not a rejection. It’s just that the palette has gotten so huge, I’ve got to try it. That’s where the exhilaration, the fun, and the reward come from. “I dropped the limits,” Mr. Kramer said with a smile. “I’m trying to see what will come out.” In a sense, the designs are still market-driven, he confessed. “If a customer will not buy a piece, it discourages you from going farther down that road.” But, he quickly added, “there is never enough time in a day to explore all of those ideas.” They often feed off the pieces just completed, and encourage exploration of yet other areas of design. And as a piece evolves, there are decisions to be made; sometimes as basic as choosing a square leg or a round leg. “It’s not that one is right or wrong,” he explained. “It’s an emotion or feeling. But the one not picked often sits around screaming, ‘What about me?’ ” The ideas, the options not chosen, all “sit around cooking,” providing yet more mental fodder for future designs. Recently, Mr. Kramer has produced several collaborative pieces with other artists. “Slice of the Beach” is one. It would be a rather traditional corner table were it not for the brightly painted top, which depicts a beachfront scene as viewed from the water looking toward land. The panoramic cross-section ranges from the ocean floor to the sky, with animals and plants in between. The table was designed by Mr. Kramer, and the painting was done by Walter Hyde, a painter who lives on Cape Cod. Another such piece is “Mother’s Day,” a table again designed by Mr. Kramer. The leg design is based on an Photo courtesy Laura Smith/Patrick CABINETMAKER PETER KRAMER works on the polkberry carving ornamenting the top of his puzzle table, one of the pieces created for his 20th anniversary show. The table features a top which swivels to support the foldout leaves and a lazy susan in the middle. Egyptian artifact he viewed in a museum in Kansas City (he made a quick sketch and kept it for years before finding an opportunity to adapt the 4,500 year old design to a contemporary piece of furniture), and the faux bois painting was done by Georgia Wallsworth. Yet another large dresser carries a seafaring motif. In the design, as well as the colors, it holds to that theme. The sea chest’s hardware, sculpted by Lee Robertson, also carry the seafaring motif: a mermaid, a school offish, a starfish. The group effort put into a collaborative design, Mr. Kramer feels, “gives the piece something that it wouldn’t otherwise have.” Though his pieces could easily be called eclectic, Mr. Kramer said they all still bear a “common thread. You can see Peter Kramer’s method in the pieces.” And there’s also evidence of his techniques: hand-planing, and certain proportions. For the cabinetmaker, experience has taught him that there are some basic concepts he uses in nearly all of his designs, which for him function like tools. Some are as basic as lines, “the flow and grace of curves and surfaces.” Quality is another important and essential element of his work. “It doesn’t come out right every time the first time — but we go back and correct it until we get it right. “It is hard on the guys” in the shop, he admitted. “It’s really painful sometimes — to seek that little bit of extra that makes a statement . . . sometimes we’re shocked at the time and effort it requires to make simple things come out right.” Legs, another concept, have become one of the hallmarks of his pieces. “In a a traditional presentation, you bounce off it like it’s not there. I try to design things that draw you in to the piece. People explore it, ask ‘What is this doing?’ and suddenly they are interacting with the piece.” “Sometimes it’s hard to manage the themes,” he ad mitted, especially in a showroom setting. “The problem is how to show it all. It is eclectic.” That is one reason that part of the 20th anniversary exhibition is a house tour of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Darby’s home in Woodville. The Darbys have more than 30 pieces of furniture designed by Mr. Kramer, as well as examples of custom millwork produced by Kramer and Eiland Woodworking. “It’s one thing to see the pieces in a showroom setting,” he said. “It’s another thing to see them in a house. It gives you an idea of how to mix up those eclectic pieces.” Looking to the future, eclectic will apparently continue to be part of Mr. Kramer’s vocabulary. “I plan to continue on with it, with very few changes other than to stay free to flow with ideas.” Furniture design, he said, “is a lifetime thing. There’s no retirement.” He mentioned that master craftsman George Nakashimi, who recently died, was still designing and building furniture well into his 80s. “Maybe you don’t go out and cut down the trees anymore — but you can still actively create. That’s how I see myself.” “Recent Thoughts” opens on Saturday, Oct. 13 with a special preview showing. Mr. Kramer’s showroom, as well as Kramer and Eiland Woodworking’s shop, mil be open at the Washington Arts Building at Gay and Jett Streets from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Refreshments will be served. Tours of Millwood, the home of Mr. a rid Mrs. Robert Darby in Woodville, will be conducted from l pjn. to 7 p.m. The exhibition will continue Oct. 11-21, with the showroom and shop open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. There is no admission charge to any of the exhibitions, and all pieces in the show will be held until the show concludes on Oct. 21.

Turkey walk benefits Heart Association Walkers througout the county will be putting on their most comfortable shoes on Sunday, Nov. 4 for the American Heart Association’s annual Turkeywalk. The six mile event will begin at 1:30 p.m. at the intersections of Route 612 and Route 600 in Old Hollow just east of Sperry ville. “It’s a beautiful course, especially this time of year. People of all ages and fitness levels can participate and benefit” said Turkeywalk chairwoman, Ann Miller. The funds raised through Turkeywalk pledges and donations will support American Heart Association’s research, public and professional education and community service programs. “Turkeywalk also presents another message,” according to Marion Facchina, the event’s co-chairwoman. “We’re trying to spread the word that walking can help people get physically fit and condition their hearts and lungs. It’s an activity the entire family can enjoy.” Walkers who collect pledges of $100 or more will get a Thanksgiving turkey, compliments of WLR Foods, the sponsor of the event. “Giving away a turkey is a great incentive at this time of year,” Ms. Miller said, “and we want people to be aware that a diet including lowfat poultry, such as turkey, is important, not only around the holidays, but throughout the year.” The goal of the American Heart Association is to reduce disability and death from cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Each year in Virginia, heart disease claims more than 20,000 lives, making it the number one killer.

As we pack away our bathing suits and unearth our sweaters from moth balls, the days become shorter and there is a chill in the air. Autumn is a bitter-sweet time for many of us. Summer vacation is over and it is time to get back to work. Yet, it is also the season for hayrides, apple butter making, and leaping into giant piles of crackling leaves. God, in His loving kindness, has eased this transition from summer into winter with the beautiful color display of autumn. How ironic. . though the leaves of summer die and fall to the ground, they become even more beautiful in death. As we come to God in worship this week, let us thank Him for the beauty of autumn. May we also remember that through faith and the love of God, we too may have a more beautiful life after death than we have ever known in life &n earth.

It's apple butter-making time By HELEN W. SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economics One of the rituals of fall during apple harvest time is making apple butter. If you’re lucky enough to have a huge copper kettle. . .and a large family to consume the finished product. . .you can make it the original way cooked outside over a fire. This is the way they were doing it this past weekend in Sperryville at the Apple Harvest Festival. If you want to make a smaller quantity, try the two recipes that follow. The first recipe for Apple Butter — Old Fashioned Kind Using Whole Apples is from the Extension Food Preservation publication. Apple butter Use Jonathan, Winesap, Stayman, Golden Delicious, Macintosh, or other tasty apple varieties for good results. 8 lb. apples 2 cups cider 2 cups vinegar 2-1/4 cups white sugar 2-1/4 cups packed brown sugar 2 tbsp. ground cinnamon 1 tbsp. ground cloves Procedure: Wash, remove stems, quarter, and core fruit. Cook slowly in cider and vinegar until soft. Press fruit through a colander, food mill, or strainer. Cook fruit pulp with sugar and spices, stirring frequently. To test for doneness, remove a spoonful and hold it away from steam for 2 minutes. It is done if the butter remains mounded on the spoon. Another way to determine when the butter is cooked adequately is to spoon a small quantity onto a plate. When a rim of liquid does not separate around the edge of the butter, it is ready for canning. Pour hot into sterile half-pint or pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Adjust lids and process for 5 minutes in boiling water bath. Quart jars should be processed 10 minutes. Yield: About 8 to 9 pints. This next recipe for Crock Pot Apple Butter is a similar recipe cooked in a crock pot. It’s fine, if you only need a small quantity. Crock pot apple butter 12 cups chopped, unpeeled apples (Jonathan, Stayman, Winesap, York) 3/4 cup apple cider 1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves Combine apples and cider in a 3quart slow-cooking pot. Cover and cook on low 8 hours or until apples are soft. Puree in food sieve or food mill. If you use the sieve, you will lose the peelings. If you use the food mill, the peelings will be cut fine and USDA Choice Beef Family Pack CUBE STEAK h ***** Grade A WHOLE FRYERS Lamb Loin, Rib & Sirloin Lb.

Return the puree to the crock pot, add the sugar and spices and cook covered on low for about two hours. If apple butter is runny, cook uncovered for 30 minutes or so. The apple butter will keep in the refrigerator several weeks or may be frozen in plastic containers. You may can in pint jars by putting hot apple butter in hot jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Adjust caps. Process pints 10 minutes in boiling water bath. Yield: 3-4 pints. The next two recipes use apple butter in them. The Apple Butter Bread is from Liz Tole of Woodville and the Apple-Almond Butter is from the American Heart Association’s Cookbook. Apple butter bread 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar legg 3/4 cup buttermilk 2 teaspoons baking soda 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1 teaspoon ground allspice 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves 1 cup apple butter 1/2 cup chopped pecans Cream butter and sugar; add egg, and beat well. Combine the buttermilk and soda. Combine flour and spices; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with flour. Stir in apple butter and pecans. Pour into a greased 9- x 5- x 3-inch loafpan. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 5 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes; remove to wire rack, and cool completely. Yield: One 9-x-5x-3-inch loaf. Submitted by Liz Tole. Apple-almond butter 1 cup whole almonds, with skins 1 cup sweetened apple butter Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Toast almonds in a single layer on a baking pan for 5 to 10 minutes, or until golden, turning once. Put into workbowl of a food processor fitted with metal blade and process continuously, scraping sides as needed, until almonds become a thick paste. (At first almonds become powdery, like almond meal; then if you keep processing, you will get almond butter, a thick paste). Add apple butter and continue to process, scraping sides as needed, until mixture is smooth. Refrigerate. Serves 20; 1 tablespoon per serving. Note: This tastes great on whole wheat toast or English muffins. American Heart Association. If you really want to get some apple butter the easy way this fall and not spend a day cooking it, buy some from the Rappahannock Lions Club. They made 50 bushels of apples into apple butter and will be selling it the next few weekends as a fundraiser for their club.
