He had 1,876 votes versus incumbent Sheriff John Henry Woodward’s 1,044 votes which totalled 36 percent. “I am kind of shocked that we won it with such a comfortable margin,” said Mr. Settle. Mr. Settle carried every precinct in the county, winning the biggest margin from the voters in Sperryville. The key to his campaign, he felt, was getting out and seeing people door to door and listening to their concerns. He said that people felt they did not have a voice in the community regarding law enforcement. “1 think people were ready for a change,” he said. Though the campaign and been a tremendous amount of work, Mr. Settle feels it was worth it. “John Henry Woodward is a fine man and I hope we can continue our relationship. I have the utmost respect for him and his team in the Sheriff’s Office,” he said. Mr. Settle hopes the transition will be smooth one and looks forward to serving the countyjns sheriff. Sheriff Woodward was unavailable for comment following the election. Ron Frazier of Amissville will be the new man on the Board of Supervisors, beating out Ellis Bingham with 306 votes to 2}2. Mr. Frazier said, “I felt confident about winning and am grateful the way the election turned out.” He thanks the people who turned out to vote for him and said he hopes to be the supervisor that his district needs. Mr. Bingham graciously accepted defeat, saying “1 thought he put up a hard fight and he won....l wish him all the luck in the world. I’ve enjoyed serving the county for the last eight years....I’m a little relieved because I think the county is going to face the largest tax increase in years, and I wish him luck in trying to deal with that.” The supervisor’s race in Wakefield District was close, with Hubert S. Gilkey, III winning over Roger A. Welch, 339 to 299. Mr. Gilkey carried the most votes from Chester Gap, 138 to 56, while Mr. Welch carried Flint Hill, 243 to 201. When contacted after the election, Mr. Gilkey said, “I’m very grateful. It was a close race, and 1 was glad of the outcome.” Mr. Welch was unavailable for comment. - Those running unopposed in the Board of Supervisors’ election were Robert Anderson, who received 495 votes in the Stonewall-Hawthorn District; Charles K. Estes of Piedmont District, who had 508 votes; and Mike Massie with 494 votes in the Hampton District. Treasurer Frances Foster garnered the most votes of the unopposed constitutional officers, with 2,521. Commissioner of Revenue Beverly Atkins had 2,510 votes, while Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke’s total was 2,384. r Old Rag Bulletins Alumni Basketball Tournament Players and coaches are needed for the Seventh Annual Alumni Basketball Tournament to be held Thanksgiving weekend, Nov. 24 and 25, at the high school.

However, Katzen easily carried his precincts in Fauquier and Warren counties to win reelection 10,891 to 7,979 for Mrs. Scheer. Facing no ballot opposition State Sen. Kevin Miller, R-26th District, easily won reelection garnering 1,938 votes in Rappahannock County. Mrs. Scheer carried Sperryville, Scrabble and Flint Hill precincts, while Del. Katzen carried Washington, Amissville and Chester Gap. In Rappahannock Mrs. Scheer won with 50.7 percent of the vote compared to 49.3 percent for Del. Katzen, but in the district as a whole Del. Katzen had 57.8 percent of the vote to 42.2 percent for Mrs. Scheer. The race had statewide parallels, but its implications for the statewide struggle 'for control of the General Assembly ultimately proved overblown. While Del. Katzen won. Republicans failed in their bid to overturn a Democratic majority in the legislature that stretched back to Reconstruction. GOP candidates, running as members of a larger Republican movement led by Gov. George Allen, needed to gain four seats in the house and three in the senate. They gained none in the house, and managed only a tie in the senate. That gives Democratic Lt. Gov. Don Beyer a final say on deadlocked legislation. Still, the strategy worked for Del. Katzen. He was happy to have Mrs. Scheer make an issue of his allegiance to Gov. Allen, who carried the district two years ago with 68 percent of the vote. “1 believe that the agenda he advanced two years ago and again this year was the one the people wanted,” Del. Katzen said. “The message, I think, was really pretty simple: trust the people... The people don’t want the government in every part of their lives.” The results, particularly the margin of victory, came as a surprise to some. The Richmond Times-Dispatch wrote in September that there was “an upset brewing” in the 31st District, pointing to Mrs. Scheer’s steady advantage in fund raising and her ties to the environmental movement that thwarted the Disney’s America theme park proposal a year ago. She mobilized the support of a number of well-known and well-heeled Republicans that Katzen alienated by supporting the Disney proposal. Acknowledged even by her critics as a quick and conscientious study, she tackled the task of ousting the incumbent with vigor. Mrs. Scheer followed the lead of Democrats across the, See Assembly, Page A-8j v Ift*** ^ke/a ncumbents Win cho°' B°ard Seats lncumbenB B««rdse",/"lV"d Pa‘" Nichols “Pen seats, "8f!'ld and Ron Make|'Sday ’s election ,g'" Jackson Dis , *e,a "TO the tlvo 295 to 241 u 5ir,Ct Mr. \4ak*u as ‘he hoardsr'place Beverly AT'“"t'd Kick Wood 358 H4SSS1*' "a"r «^mS «*• "as served 58 votes to 187 for 'ncu™bent Bryant r °r L,bby" Whetzef ‘ Lee Won With See Board, Page A_7 v^emb,v s^T P°t,nS Machines ' Concern Board -iswSSSE* ^ discussion ofth0t,ngmachines 'SOrs apparently Monday when , ,the *ssue was j B,ngham said Fauou S°£ District represJ0 the a«enda ^echanicai t0 el Ct>Unty "'ouJd J * tive E,,is ^Ppahannock clld CtrL°nic voting from from Fauquier forUootTi ^ S°me if £ 2?’ *nd Hampton DistrJ, ach- 0,d modeis ” was state or frir^reSentative Mike m machines when tu/ dcraJ government th!,MaSS,e asked if 7*> « a predn^lr^ *322 voting Massie said if Seemed s“re 0fth'S more than General Assemblytochl6 Sta‘e> 1,16 county^hnu^ but y lo change the Jaw. * shou,d ask the See Agenda, PageA.8 'Cottage in the Snow' Rappahannock News Staff photo by Cindy Mahan This full-sized handmade appliqued quilt in the ‘Cottage in the Snow’ pattern was made by Rappahannock Extension Quilters Betty Smith, Katherine Riley, Ora Roy, Edith Bridget, Doreen Wootten, Alice Pullen, Charlotte Laing, Virginia Scott and Carol Marangoni.

Farming Is Big Business Ask most people what Virginia’s tpp three agricultural products are, and they most often will guess peanuts, tobacco and pork. Right? Wrong! Way wrong! Virginia’s three leading agricultural commodities are ohicken, cattle and calves and milk. The 1994 figures, calculated by the Virginia Agricultural Statistics Service, show that broilers, or chicken fjor meat, continues to be Virginia’s * Ifeading agricultural product with S397.9 million in cash receipts. When added to the cash receipts from turkeys and from the egg industry, Virginia’s poultry industry is a giant with more than $639.3 million in sales last year. This represents one third of Virginia’s total cash receipts ip agricultural sales. Following broilers in the number two spot in terms of cash receipts is the Virginia cattle industry with sales of cattle and calves totaling more than $294.5 million in 1994. Cattle and Calves has been Virginia’s “bread and gutter” commodity since World War IJ. Many people don’t realize that the beef they buy in the store may have originated in Virginia since Virginia’s cattle industry revolves around “feeder cattle” (cattle that are raised to an $00 to 900 pound weight and then 3ent to Midwest feedlots where they peach their full weight before slaughter). Milk held its place as Virginia’s third leading commodity with cash Peceipts of almost $272.3 million. What was somewhat of a surprise in the 1994 cash receipts figures was tobacco. Tobacco cash receipts in 1994 totaled $168.9 million, putting tobacco in fifth place. Tobacco lost its fourth place spot to turkeys. Turkey sales totaled $171.9 million, putting turkey industry sales above tobacco’s. However, turkey’s spot in fourth place may be short lived because of various market factors affecting tobacco industry sales in 1994. While turkey sales were up in 1994, other factors which influenced tobacco cash receipts’ fall to fifth place include: high production yields and a resulting large carry-over inventory into 1995. Tobacco sales in 1995 are likely to show an increase as inventories level off. Virginia’s greenhouse and nursery industry held its position in sixth place with cash sales of $128.7 million, followed by soybeans in seventh place with cash sales of $81.8 million; peanuts in eighth place with cash receipts of $80 million; hogs in ninth place with cash receipts of $71 million and eggs in 10th place with cash receipts of $69.5 million. Hogs fell from seventh to ninth place largely because of the low prices in 1994; hog production, however, remained fairly constant. “We talk about agriculture being big business in Virginia. Nothing brings this fact home as clearly as the cash receipts. Cash receipts represent what farmers receive at the first point of sale, and this year cash receipts totaled more than $2.2 billion,” said J. Carlton Courter III, Commissioner of the Virginia Department of Agricultural and Consumer Services. “When you add what products bring in after processing, and the direct and indirect effects of these products, agriculture is a $25 billion industry which accounts for one in seven jobs in Virginia. In many ways, it is the foundation of our economy,” Mr. Courter added. Direct government payments to Virginia farmers represent only 1.6 percent of cash receipts. Nathan Flinchum To Attend D.C.

Despite objections from some adjoining landowners, Kathleen Maier received approval to have a Center for Herbal Studies on land, belonging to Susan Babcock off Fodderstack Road. The Center will operate from March through November, Thursday through Sunday, with a maximum of 20 people. The access to Ms. Babcock’s property will be off of Route 624 in Harris Hollow rather than her' usual entrance from a rightof-way off the Fodderstack Road. Activities at the Center will include the study of herbs as food and as medicine, and botanical farming. Ms. Maier hopes to be able to plant sanctuary gardens of medicinal herbs such as goldenseal and ginseng. Students will camp out on the property and will use the bathroom facilities in Ms. Babcock’s house. One of the days during the four day weekend will be spent in the woods, and students will not be using the traditional facilities. Ms. Maier said that she feels the Center is very important, as interest in the use of herbs has grown in recent years. She teaches many classes about herbs, to medical students at the University of Virginia among others. Many supporters of the Center spoke at the meeting. One was Bob Dennis, who said that Mrs. Babcock’s land is in easement, and that he is a strong supporter of the easement program. “We are going to see this type of interest on easement properties. We do need to find new uses for our rural lands.- I think it is totally compatible with an easement property,” he said. Vinnie Carney said that she has been very sick for the past year and Call the Rappahannock News at 675-3338 with your ideas for stories or photos. iN TIME I'OR CHRISTMAS THE “GET ACQUAIN TED SALE” CONTINUES 20% OFF All Items Except Consigned Paintings RARE FINDS II lit FI'S • ANTIQUES . 1>KC()RA 11VI-.

Ms. Maier has been treating her as an herbalist and that as a result she is doing much better. Her doctors at Georgetown University Hospital now ask her, “What does your herbalist say?” Mrs. Carney said, “She has done remarkable things for me. 1 hope and pray you support her in this.” Speakjng in opposition to the Center, Betty Settle said that she had several concerns, including the bathroom facilities. Ms. Maier responded that the students would be taught ecologically, and be shown not to do anything near a water source and to bury it. She said that a mullein leaf is “nature’s toilet paper." Ms. Settle also said that she was concerned about the allowance of camping on Ms. Babcock’s property setting a precedent for overnight accommodations. Jack Jenkins, another neighbor, said he believed that the standards had not been met, and pointed out several sections in the ordinance that he felt were in conflict. “If we let this happen then we might as well through the book away,” he said. Mary Atkins Jenkins said that she felt the Center would cause air and water pollution. “I have concerns about the streams through our lands being polluted,” she said. She added that she had seen on television that “herbs make you high....We need to preserve that land instead of having it as a stomping ground for a few elite. I say God Bless America and keep our neighborhood rural” she added. Jonas Jenkins said that he was concerned about traffic. “1 like it the way it is and I want it to stay the way it is. I don’t want to see a business out there,” he said. BZA Chairman Jennifer Matthews said that the Board of Zoning Appeals acts as an extension of the Circuit Court judge, and if people are still aggrieved about a decision of the BZA, they can contact the Circuit Court judge. The BZA approved the Center for Herbal Studies, saying that it would not have to be reapplied for every year, but it would be up for review after the first year. Also, all access to Ms. Babcock’s property relating to the Center will be from a road off Route 624 in Harris Hollow.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for making my campaign a success. Without your vote, support, contributions and “behind the scenes” help, none of this would have been possible. A person is only as good as the people who stand behind him. I hope that you will stand behind me for the next four years and help me make a better tomorrow for Rappahannock and its citizens. I look forward to the next few weeks as I prepare to take office as your new Sheriff. Gary Settle Paid for and authorized by the Candidate

However, Virginia voters also spent Tuesday denying Gov. George Allen the Republican majorities in the General Assembly he said he needed to overcome Democratic obstructionism. Perhaps Gov. Allen should realize that Virginia voters do not want the drastic changes at the state level that American voters asked for at the federal level last year when Republicans gained majorities in both houses of Congress. The state w ould benefit from a mood in Richmond closer to that which prevailed during the governor’s first year in office rather than the confrontations of last year’s session. Gary Settle won an overwhelming victory in his campaign to become the county’s Sheriff. He carried every precinct in the county. Voters must realize that once he becomes the Sheriff, as opposed to devoting himself full-time to running for Sheriff, he will not be able to come knocking on their doors. However, he has said he will have an open door policy in his office, so voters should know where to find him. Rappahannock County followed trends set earlier in School Board races by returning all incumbents who were running to office. Mr. Wingfield and Mr. Makela will take office when the School Board begins work on what may well be its toughest budget yet. They will clearly have their work cut out for them. Mr. Frazier will be a true addition to the Board of Supervisors once he realizes that the other members have not enjoyed raising taxes. It is increased mandates from the federal and state governments combined with decreased revenues from those sources that have forced the hated increases in real estate and personal property taxes. Clean Up Time Before the bulk of the county’s apples are even harvested a new crop of campaign signs appears. It’s time to harvest them. The Rappahannock News was thrilled to learn Tuesday night that Ron Frazier was already out gathering up signs. Other candidates and campaign workers should join him in ridding the county of this blight on its scenic vistas. ^ WHO cleans up the campaign litter?! /—\ V/v y-s.

While we were shopping in the Apple Blossom Mall, I stopped at a store and was ready to pay for something when I looked in my purse and realized the S99 I had was gone. I was so upset! I started looking everywhere. I walked into Express and asked the cashier if any money had been turned in. She said yes. Someone had found $99 and turned it into the cashier, i’m so thankful to whoever turned in my money and to the cashier for being honest enough to give it back to me. I think it’s great that there are still people honest enough to turn $99 without stealing any of it. I’m telling this story to everyone I know so that it will have an impact on the next person who might find lost money. Maybe they will remember how happy they will make someone feel by trying to find the owner. To whoever the finder is, thank you! Honesty lives! RACHEL SHARP, Age 11 Washington Oppose Dumpsters Near School To the Editor: In response to your editorial in the Oct. 11 issue of the Rappahannock News entitled “Dumpsters,” which in part stated, “The county owns sufficiertt land at the elementary school and School Board site to locate such a facility if no other place can be found.” It is true that the site is centrally located to serve the county; that is why the elementary school and the School Board were located there, thus, making the site a good place for future educational growth. In my opinion, more traffic on School House Road (Route 636) is not needed; it handles enough traffic now with school and sports activities. Dumpster activity would aggravate traffic, especially, since the north side of the road already has been zoned as a potential commercial site. Projecting into the 21st century and taking into consideration the safety of elementary school students, another site in that general area should be proposed. ROBERT W ARMENTROUT Hyattsville, Md. Lynch * Thanked To the Editor: Our Humanities class at Rappahannock County High School recently had the opportunity to visit Little Washington on a field trip to examine characteristics of classical architecture and visit the Middle Street Gallery. We had been studying classical architecture and wanted to explore any real life examples we could find. While in town, we happened upon the new home of the owners of the Inn, Mr. Lynch and Mr. O’Connor, and were admiring the classical style of this new home from the street. Reinhardt Lynch noticed our class and came to talk with us about the architecture of his house. We were so excited! Our class gained such invaluable information to add to our studies, not to mention the enjoyment we got from the tour! We want to publically thank Mr. Lynch for his generosity and for his time in allowing us to tour his home. Mr. Lynch and Mr. O’Connor have shown tremendous commitment to our community. Thanks for supporting our Humanities class and RCHS! JEANNE GRIMES for the RCHS Humanities Class Seat Belts On School Buses, Why Not? To the Editor: I am writing to try to get answer to a few questions that I have. We all know how important it is to “Buckle Up.” It is pressed on our children every day. It is also a Virginia State Law to wear your seat belt. My son is 4 years old, he will be attending elementary school next fall. He currently attends The Child Care and Learning Center. Last year a Virginia State Trooper visited his class. He gave the children a key chain that said to “Buckle Up.” My son remembers that very vividly. He also told the children how important it is that they wear their seat belts. This year the children are going to the elementary school so that the third graders can read to them. When he came home that afternoon I asked him what kind of stories he had heard that day. The first thing that he said was that the big school buses didn’t have seat belts. For days after this he asked me why he doesn’t have to wear a seat belt. Do you know that I could not think of an answer to tell him. I called the Virginia State Police headquarters and 1 asked them why the buses don’t have seat belts. I was told that school buses are excempt under that law. I can’t believe that because you would think that they would want to protect our children. I don’t understand why it is that I will get a ticket if I don’t have my son in a seat belt, I drive better than some of the buses around here. Some of the buses around here go way over the speed limit. Everyone knows the deer around the road are very bad early in the morning. I was told that the seats have a lot more padding in them. If the bus hits a deer or another car that padding is not going to keep a five year old child from! flying around the bus. Any age child at that matter. The other issue is that there is enough room on a bus for 72 children. They are worried about being able to undo them all. I honestly don’t think we have a bus in Rappahannock County that is that full. The driver of the bus has a seat belt on. Is my son’s life not as important? If they are not going to give the children seat belts, stop telling them how important it is for them to “Buckle Up." You are confusing the small children and even some of the adults. In this past week I have heard of over three bus accidents, with deaths. Seat belts could have probably prevented them. I want my son to have a safe ride to school. We should also try to enforce the laws instead of contradicting them. It is possible for the buses to have seat belts installed. The small school bus that The Child Care and Learning Center uses has seat belts.

JAMIE ALIPERTI R.L.S., Culpeper offico Lions Support Youth To the Editor: Recently, I had the pleasure of attending a meeting of The Rappahannock County Lion’s Club, and I came away truly moved by the generosity of the group. I’d been, invited to speak on the volunteer needs of the public school system, and was lucky to speak prior to the presentations of two RCHS public speaking students, Andrew Van Horn and Jenny Bowen, hard acts to follow! During the business portion of the meeting, the membership, without much discussion, voted unanimously to help fund the RCHS soccer field bleachers and mats for the county’s wrestling program. It was just another way in which this organization constantly seeks to suppbrt our community and its youth, often without any public recognition. I just wanted to sav Thank You. JAN MAKELA Amissville The Time Machine From the Rappahannock News back when 20 YEARS AGO William A. Buntin was the victor in a three-way race for sheriff of Rappahannock in Tuesday’s election. He upset incumbent John Walker Jenkins by an almost two to one margin and completely overshadowed the third candidate, Everett Estes. Voting was heavy with a total of 1904 ballots cast in the sheriffs race. Virginia D. Smith, incumbent for the office of Commissioner of Revenue, was successful in retaining her position against challenger Marilyn Merrill Bailey. The Wakefield District Board of Supervisors’ seat was taken by Edwin M. Eastham, HI of Huntly, with only a 24-count difference. Hubert Gilkey, Ill was defeated in this race. State Senator George S. Aldhizer defeated Nathan Miller. Cindy Cumins was the Panther Tales correspondent from RCHS. ; Bradford’s Restaurant (now Flint Hill Store) advertised a complete fried oyster dinner for $2.50 and all-youcan-eat fresh trout, potato buds, cornbread and coffee for $2.00. Beyond the Door and The Devil's Wedding Night were playing at the Front Royal Drive-In Theatre. Rappahannock won the Skyline District Cross Country District Meet held at Blue Rock Farm. They defeated Central, Montevideo, Madison, Page and Luray, with 52 points.

The undefeated Mustangs hounded the Panthers and went on to an 8521 final score on the strength of an impressive 27 point first quarter. Rappahannock was plagued by excessive turnovers against the strong George Mason trapping defense. Dawn Havstad led the Panther scoring with 6 points while seniors Brenda Swinkles and Cari Kerr added 4 each. The Junior Varsity squad put forth a strong effort before falling to the junior Mustangs 42-27. Point Guard Sonya Wigington lead the Panthers as she has all year with 12 points. Her backcourt mate Alice Gentry added 7 points. The Panthers were hampered by the absence of two starters, and this led to a slow beginning. However, as the game progressed the Panthers came together to challenge their opponents. While the Varsity Panthers met little success this season there is reason for a positive outlook for the future. The Panthers will lose only one starter, forward Cari Kerr, and hope Junior Varsity prospect Sonya Wigington can move up into an expanded role next season. Combined with the return of their three junior captains and post player Dawn Havstad the team hopes to take advantage of their experience. “No true point guard for the season put people out of their natural positions repeatedly and slowed our offense,” remarked Coach Laura Conklin. The coach went on to say another reason the Panthers seem to be behind is a lack of experience for the younger players in our school. “Some schools have a league for elementary players and that puts us at a disadvantage.” This week’s Panther Player of the Week Award goes to all of the paitnts of the Lady Panthers. Despite a tough season, the parents never stopped cheering and yelling and have earned this reward for their support.

Carl Letsen’s U-10 team will end the season with a majority of victories, no matter how they play their" last game this Saturday. For Letsen, a personal highlight was seeing his twin boys, John and David, both score goals in a game against Culpeper that ended with a 2-0 score. Lorinda Bosch’s U-12 team sailed through the season with lopsidedly favorable scores and only one loss. Interestingly, the Bosch group met strong competition right here in Rappahannock last Saturday when the other U-12 team, coached by Mike McKiemam,'refused to let the Bosch group havg^ its usual wide margin of victory. The game ended 3-1. The next day the Bosch U-12 team faced an all-star Fauquier team and battled it to a 2-2 tie. K.C.

Rare Bowl Sold by Payne In all of Carnival glass collecting the Northwood Peacock and Urn master ice cream bowl in aqua opalescent is one of the rarest and most desirable, with perhaps only 12 known to exist in the world. One of these bowls was recently identified and sold for its owners by Bill and Mauri Payne of Bill Payne Auctions, Inc. Amissville for $25,000 to an Ohio collector. Found by the Paynes in a Maryland farmhouse amid a small collection of Carnival glass, its owners of 35 years couldn’t recall how they had acquired the piece originally.

The appreciative audience, who filled all the seats in the Washington Town Hall, listened with rapt attention as the two men gave their history lesson in construction of buildings in Virginia since the 17th century. Mr. Matthews, who is an architect who lives in Flint Hill, said that there are three ways to date a house: documentary evidence, comparison to known styles, and examination of physical evidence (surface and subsurface investigations). He said that what is written on the subject deals mainly with more populated areas than Rappahannock County. Mr. Matthews has been doing research on his own home in Flint Hill, Althea Terrace, to find out more of the history of the home. He has documented photographically renovations which have been done on the interior of his house, and discovered that one of the mantels was signed in pencil by the carpenter who built it in 1847. In houses in Pennsylvania, said Mr. Matthews, he has seen the date of the house written in the chinking above the mantel. He is also learning a lot about old building from a log home which is presently in Woodstock but will be moved to Rappahannock County. Many things can give clues to a building’s age, said Mr. Matthews: mantel styles, doorways, nails, trims, interior and exterior surfaces, windows and doors. He cautioned, though, that structures may have undergone a number of steps to be the way they look now. Christopher Owens, a preservation craftsman and contractor from Madison who has recently been working on Ash Lawn, the home of James Monroe, said, “If you really want to date a building the ideal way is to get into the places which are easily! changed.” . The best things he said to look for are the style of nails and saw marks or lack of saw marks. Around the turn of the 19th century, he said, people start-; ed making nails with machines. Iron i plates would be rolled out and a! machine would cut the nails, which were very crude until 1840. Mr. Owens explained that the: older a building, the more handwork; will be visible. In the 18th century,; everything was handmade, he said,; and that the earliest buildings tend to have the fanciest joinings. The joints got simpler as the years went by. Heavier timber was used earlier! because it was so difficult to cut into, smaller pieces, said Mr. Owens. In the! 1800-1860’s, timber was nine inches; wide, and gradually got lighter. In* 1840 in a Shaker community, said! Mr. Owens, a woman suggested a round saw be used to cut the timber, which would eliminate a lot of the hard labor needed to cut it. So aftef 1840, jnuch of the wood would havd marks on it from a circular saw. After 1870 the saw blades were smaller, making the saw marks on the wood more curved. - ■ • The next type of wood used in abundance, 2 x 4’s, allowed the construction of fancier houses rather than plain square and rectangular houses. Victorian houses became popular during the last 1800’s as q result of this. One person from the audience asked Mr. Owens about early stone work. He said that red clay was used to pack between stones in the (earliest stone work, and admitted that stone'is very tricky to date. Responding to a question about glass, he said that in the beginning of the 18th century, windows were small and had many panes. The glass, he said, was really thin, maybe about l/l6th of an inch thick. In the 1830’s many windows were very large — 4 foot by 8 foot, with six over six windows. Virginia Loses in Court In Voter Law Challenge By DAN LOWREY Capital New* Service U.S. District Court Judge Richard Williams ruled last month that Virginia has until March 6 to comply with the national motor-voter law. The National Voter Registration Act, known as “motor-voter,” allows eligible voters to register at motor vehicle offices as well as social services departments. The General Assembly passed legislation this year that would have enabled motor-voter to take effect in January 1996, but Gov. George Allen vetoed the bill and filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice. He contended that the act was an unfunded federal mandate that would divert state workers from their regular jobs. William Mark Dunn, assistant attorney general of Virginia, argued that to comply with the constitution, the act “cannot commander or conscript state employees to cany out the federal law.” Still, Judge Williams ruled the law was constitutional, but he left open the question of refunding costs incurred by the state for its implementation A hearing on this issue is expected later this year. It is estimated that statewide motor-voter implementation could cost several million dollars but would add nearly 1 million people to the state’s votei*registration rolls. Following the court’s decision, Attorney General James S. Gilmore III and Gov. Allen issued statements indicating they would comply with the decision and would push for changes necessary to implement the law in January. “The attorney general and I have determined that further legal challenges should not be mounted,” Gov. Allen said...In my view, the courts r from across the United States have spoken sufficiently on this issue, and the Commonwealth of Virginia will abide by their rulings.” Judge Williams’ ruling is consistent with rulings in California an^l Illinois that require states to expand their registration process by allowing motor-voter. Virginia was countersued by the federal government and several private groups including the League of Women Voters, who said Gov. Allen was not acting in the interests of Virginia citizens, and his lawsuit was just a stalling tactic. Judge Williams dismissed the private suits saying they were not applicable because the act had not yet become effective. The ruling means Gov. Allen and the General Assembly will have to work out some discrepancies with the Virginia constitution before motorvoter can be complied with. Virginia law currently requires applicants to state their place of birth on applications, while federal forms do not. The state argued that this could lead to “A substantial number” of federally registered voters who would not be allowed to vote in state contests if they complete only the federal form. The state attorney general’s office argued that because of this change in the constitution, the earliest the law could be implemented would be late 1996 or early 1997. Nevertheless, Judge Williams nrled March 6 would be the deadline. He said Gov. Allen had until the Noy, 7 elections to call a special session, and that would give him 120 days as required by the act to implement it. Meanwhile, Lt. Gov. Don Beyer and Democratic colleagues said on Monday that they would pursue the matter in the 1996 General Assembly to ensure the act is implemented. >4.1 J -- Panther Marchers Photo courtesy of Michelle Botan Wearing the new Panther logo on their sweatshirts, the I RCHS band marched in the Festival of Leaves Parade.

'Dust in the Corner' Calls Up Deep Roots By MEREDITH RODE Rappahannock News Contributing Writer The roots of what are called “the arts” lie deep within the human past. They have served to nourish and express the hopes, the fears and the defining myths of human beings in every comer of our planetary home. Laurie Marshall has called on those deep roots to construct a work which would not be alien in its meaning to many in the distant ages or to many who live in traditions different from her own. She has joined together movement, music, words and visual images in ways which echo the communal ceremonies of other times and cultures. “Stories from the Dust in the Corner” speaks of death, and of course, by implication, what it means to live. The dust, ultimately, is us, but it serves as metaphor for all the complex inevitabilities of life, both good and bad. In the modern world, this mixed media creation might be called Performance Art or: simply, a dramatic presentation, but these are only categories not really relevant to the experience. It might as easily be seen as ritual ceremony or a rite of celebration and sorrow. The work is anchored in vignettes from the life and death of specific people with whotp Ms. Marshall has been connected. Through quotes, songs, poetry and dance, she and her assembled troupe recall Alice Marshall, her mother, Blanche Kennedy, her mother-in-law, and Amira Skaljic, a refugee from Bosnia who survives that war-tom Hell only to die in America of cancer. There are other stories, at once painful and uplifting of Clarence Dearing, of Willie Bell Dunn, of Shirley Fein, and Mythili Nakkiran. These are people of varying colors, beliefs and countries of origin who have lived vastly different lives, but they are lives which have touched or been connected with Laurie Marshall. They are not the people of the headlines, they are in the words of the popular song, “everyday people.” It is in this recognition, that Ms. Marshall has achieved something of such great value. Our individual lives are worth recognizing, and are the source of art. So, too, are our collective lives, and this is made specific in the song “We Are One Tribe” based on a poem by Melanie Moffett, at the time she wrote the poem a sixteen year old student in a school where Ms. Marshall worked as an artist-in-residence. ' The theme of the recurring dust is manifest in the brooms, serving as both prop and symbol, which are used in the dances throughout the performance. The dances themselves are sometimes transition pieces, sometimes primary focus, and sometimes counterpoint to the spoken word or visual images. The cast is varied in gender, race, and age, with children (including one of Ms. Marshall’s sons) reminding us of beginnings and of the hopeful future. Slides of various images highlight the spoken or sung words and the choreographed movement. Some of them represent the people being spoken of and some are images which Symbolize the importance of the world of nature. In addition to the Visuals provided by the slides, Ms. Marshall’s actual paintings adorn the walls. They are detailed images often realistic, but often also combining images of the real and the fantastic, a central image bordered by related smaller ones. Saturn, with its rings, recurs in both the visuals and in the spoken words. The colors in the oil Subscribe to thi Rappahannock Haw*. Call 678-3338. Review SS*: ‘1 : on-wood paintings are vibrant, giving added vitality to the strong images. What Ms. Marshall has put together is unique in form and content, and remarkable in all it weaves together. She has taken the profoundly personal and made it into public ceremony in a way which changes audience into participants. This is done both through the message of the piece, but also consciously when the scripted performance is over and everyone in attendance is invited to offer responses and experiences of their own. Many of these spontaneous offerings mirror those of the performance and attest to its power to touch the common themes of our lives. While much of the work has its genets in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of Rappahannock County, it translates easily into far different contexts. The stories of the dust are not distant from us. They are in all our houses, in houses all over the world. In creating this work, Ms. Marshall has provided a form which pays homage to individual people while linking us to what transcends our human boundaries. It is art in the service of affirming life. £ Editorial Note: Meredith Rode is a professor of art and teaches studio courses and art history at the University of the District oj Columbia.

The show is free. If you wish a group to attend, please alert the school in advance to ensure that enough seats are reserved. Mr. Kengmo appears in dramatic native dress, accompanied by a drummer from his native land of Cameroon. Their show has been widely seen over the last five years irf* hundreds of schools in the Washington D.C. and Baltimore area. This is their first performance in a rural area. The show is particularly relevant to Rappahannock County because it focuses on farming in Mr. Kengmo’s home village. It's funny and inspiring at the same time. With infectious exu-'; berance, Mr. Kengmo weaves itr lessons about the importance of cooperation and about the “genius” in everyone. Mr. Kengmo’s performance is the first “curriculum enrichment pro-’ gram" at the high school this year' sponsored by a group of volunteers" known as “Programs Advisory.”Though the group receives some1 school board support, the majority of its funds come from donations.

► Agenda From Page A-l - j He said he was concerned, not just about cost, but also that some voters may feel intimadated by the machines and stop voting. He noted that Rappahannock usually has a higher percentage voter turnout than other areas. County Administrator John McCarthy said the conern about switching was not just the cost of the machines themselves but the cost of upkeep and providing secure storage. County Attorney Peter Luke suggested the county might be able to rent machines and save on the cost of providing storage. Several members of the board were ready to vote to add opposition to the law requiring voting machines to the county’s legislative agenda for the coming session of the General Assembly, when Stonewall-Hawthorn District representative Robert Anderson said, “It’s obvious none of you have wives who work the polls, I’ll never vote for that.” Roberta Anderson works the polls at Scrabble. Poll workers have to be at the polling place from before the polls open at 6 a.m. until after all the votes are tallied, usually after midnight. The supervisors agreed to ask Mr. McCarthy to do some research on options for voting machines for the December meeting. Assembly Session The supervisors signed on to the majority of proposals of Region 7 of the Virginia Association of Counties (VACo) for the 1996 session of the General Assembly but said only the Eastern Bypass around Washington, D.C., not the Western Bypass, should be studied further. The proposals called for a “fiscal impact study” before any more mandates are passed down to local governments and changing the method by which the Local Composite Index is computed including recognition of land use value instead of relying only on fair market value, using full funding of the state’s Standards of Quality, and including the cost of capital improvements. The proposal also calls for relaxation of the Dillon Rule giving local governments more say and authorizing counties to tax admissions, cigarettes, food and beverages. Also included is allowing all counties to collect impact fees from developers for the increase in costs their developments cause local governments. The program calls for study of both the eastern and western bypasses, but calls for more input from local governments. Besides opposing further study of the western bypass, Rappahannock’s supervisors also said the VACo program should include efforts to repeal the bill that required the county to allow mobile homes in agricultural districts and efforts to keep the General Assembly from approving a law that would take away from local governments the right to regulate or ban sewage sludge. Mr. McCarthy said the change in paying for cost of living adjustments for retirees will affect the county’s general budget as well as the schQpl budget. Mr. Massie asked if the county could counter by requiring employees to again contribute to the retirement fund. A few years ago the county and school system voted to pick up the NOTICE OF INTENT TO MAKE APPOINTMENTS TO THE BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS FOR THE COUNTY OF RAPPAHANNOCK On Friday, November 17, 1995 at 8:30 o'clock a.m. in the Courtroom at the Courthouse in Washington, Va., the Honorable William Shore Robertson, Judge of the Rappahannock County Circuit Court will receive public comment and interview candidates who are interested in being appointed to serve on the Rappahannock County Board of Zoning Appeals for Piedmont and Hampton Districts. Candidates and other persons should appear in the Courtroom at that time to make their interests known. Diane Bruce, Clerk Rappahannock Circuit Court employees’ contribution to the retirement fund. Employees had been contributing 5 percent. This was done during ai year in which no raises w^re given and it had the effect of increasing employees paychecks by 5 percent without costing the county a like amount, because the employer’s contribution was reduced that year. Mr. McCarthy said the county could take the step of again requiring employees to contribute their share. E-911 Sheriff John Henry Woodward reported that the Enhanced 911 system will be turned oh for 675 and 987 exchanges November 15. Customers with 636 and 635 exchanges will be turned on December 5. Rappahannock residents with 937, 547, and 543 exchanges will still not be turned on because Bell Atlantic says that must wait until Culpeper County implements its E-911 system. When residents with those numbers call 911 they are connected to the dispatch center in Culpeper, which can route the call back to Rappahannock. Col. Bingham, whose district includes many of the people with 937 numbers, said, “This is ludicrous.” Mr. McCarthy agreed. Mr. McCarthy reported the county has still not received approval from the state to open the new cell at the landfill, but he said the scale was installed and working. Sheriffs Cars Sheriff Woodward ksked the supervisors to authorize him to order two new cars that would normally have been ordered in the spring so they would be delivered at the start of the next fiscal year. He said he was not at all certain the large police cars with V-8 engines and rear wheel drive would be available in spring. He said the last date to order the cars and be sure of getting the full size was this Wednesday. After that police cars may only be available in V-6 models with front wheel drive such as Chevy Lumina and Ford Taurus. The supervisors decided not to order the cars now and to consider switching to the front-wheel drive cars. Park Donation The supervisors were notified that landowners, Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Redford, are negotiating with the Shenandoah National Park to donate to the park 93 acres of adjacent land, reserving lifetime tenancy for themselves and their three grown children. The supervisors were concerned that the county could be required to provide services to residents of the land without receiving any taxes on it once it was donated. Kevin McMurry from the National Park Service will attend the December meeting to discuss this proposal. Secondary Roads During the evening meeting the supervisors held a public hearing on the county’s secondary roads. Residents along Route 620 between Five Forks and the dead end again asked that improvements to their road be included in the six-year plan. Stonewall-Hawthorn District representative Robert Anderson supported their request. He also suggested improvements to Castleton View Road, Route 616 be added to the sixyear plan. Col. Bingham asked to have Route 616 in Jackson District between 642 and U.S. 211 improved where there is a steep dip with dropoffs on both sides. Robert Moore, resident engineer reported that VDOT was already negotiating with landowners to fix that problem.

Krebser asked if a high berm on Route 662 where it enters U.S. 522 could be removed to improve site distance. He also suggested putting in a culvert on the road about .25 mile from the intersection. Mr. Moore reported he is having problems keeping up with repair needs of bridges on secondary roads using only maintenance money. He said the supervisors should consider using some road improvement funds for these repairs. This has presented a problem with some school bus routes, he said, when the bridges had to be posted for lower weight limits than the weight of a full school bus. At a School Board meeting earlier this year, David Smith, the director of transportation reported that one route had been changed to cross a bridge after most students had been dropped off in the afternoon or before they were picked up in the morning to get under the weight limits of the bridge. In other cases emergency repairs were made to bridges to allow the buses to cross, he reported. One resident asked VDOT to pay more attention to trees along the roads. He said one recently fell and smashed the front of a car. Mr. Massie said VDOT should not get involved in taking down too nany trees since that has caused more complaints than anything else since he first went on the board. “Try to leave the canopy effect up high with live green trees,” he said. Mr. Moore reported VDOT is collecting information on errors on signs installed for E-911. He said correct signs will be installed. Post Office Locations Following a public hearing the supervisors voted to adopt changes to the zoning ordinance that would allow post offices with a special use permij in R-2 and rural residential zones but not allow them in agricultural zones*. This passed 4 to 1 with Mr. Massie voting “no.” He said he had to sup* port the Planning Commission which had voted to allow them in R-2 but not rural residential zones which allow one house per five acres', because those zones are further froth the center of the villages. Col. Bingham said he was afraid if post offices were not allowed in rural residential zones, Amissville might lose its post office to Culpeper County. 2 In other action the Board of Supervisors: • Approved a resolution recognizing November as Hospice Month. • Heard a presentation by Briai^ Duncan of the Rappahannock* Rapidan Community Services Board on developing a more equal formula for support from the five localities served. • Agreed to advertise to readopt 3 section of the County Code to enforce motor vehicle laws on subdivision roads in Blue Ridge Mountain Estates and on roads, streets and parking areas on property owned by the Rappahannock County School Board. • Agreed to hold the January meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 2. • Reappointed Frank Warner to a new four-year term on the Library Board. ► Assembly From Page A-l state in making Republican education cuts a central issue. She ripped Del. Katzen for supporting relaxed environmental restrictions, and accused him from the first day she entered the race of having a deeper loyalty to the governor than to his constituents. “I thought the numbers...were actually better than we expected,” Del. Katzen said. Tuesday night, in the crowded John Barton Payne building, Mrs. Scheer defended her message, attributing her defeat to a failure in getting the electorate to grasp fully the issues she raised. “A lot of the issues got muddled,” she said. “The reason I got in the race was because Jay Katzen had such a bad record ... During the race he falsified his record, and people got confused.” bne ottered education funding as an example; Del. Katzen took credit for local increases in school funding for which he was not responsible, she said, and then grossly overstated the amounts. He claimed that district schools enjoyed nearly a $5 million increase, though school officials did not verify the amounts. She believes the people never understood the truth, and suggested the media was partly to blame. Also working in Del. Katzen’s favor she said, was the composition of the district, which proved to be more zealously Republican than she firsjt expected. She was well aware of the distrio t’s Republican leanings from the beginning; former Democratic Del. Jerry Wood said when he dropped oui of the race after six weeks that hd thought it was too Republican fof either him or Mrs. Scheer to win. '* But she said she was surprised by the “irrational hate vote against Democrats” from far-right Republicans she thinks Del. Katzen was able to exploit. “I ran a very clean campaign, and tried to target the issues,” she said. “I never made a personal attack. All my attacks were on the issues.” Mrs. Scheer would not say whether she would run again in two years and try to get her message out to the people. “1 wouldn’t even want to discuss that,” she said. But she will stay active in Fauquier County politics. { “I will be here,” she vowed. “! will always be here.” Del. Katzen, meanwhile, is headed for a Republican caucus in Wintergreen, where strategies will be hashed for advancing the governor’^ agenda through another Democratic legislature. Many observers predicted that the agenda would stall if Republicans failed to gain control. Democrats havd already begun hailing the returns as 4 repudiation of his plan, and th^ .prospect of partisan gridlock seem? veiy real. Democrats Joyous Following! General Assembly Victories ; By DAN LOWREY Capital Newt Service Gov. George Allen wanted Tuesday’s election to be a referendum on his policies. Tuesday night, Democrats said voters gave it to him. “They didn’t want to give that man a blank check,” House Speaker Thomas Moss announced to a jubilant crowd at the Richmond Mariott. “They wanted somebody looking over his shoulder, and let me tell you, we will be there to do it.” Earlier this year, Democrats successfully thwarted Gov. Allen’s attempt to cut $92 million from the state education budget and cut other state programs. Gov. Allen called Democrats “obstructionists” and asked the voters for a Republican majority to pass his policies. But the voters chose otherwise. Democrats maintained a 53 to 46 lead over Republicans for control of the House of Delegates but lost several seats in the state Senate. There, Republicans finished in a dead heat with Democrats with 20 seats apiece. Lt. Gov. Don Beyer will be the tie-breaking vote in the Senate. Mr. Beyer, appearing optimistic early on, resounded a conciliatory tone towards Republicans. No matter what the outcome, he said, “the best legislation is made with Democrats and Republicans together.” “We’re going to wake up tomor-{ row and brush off an intense partisan battle and get back to working togeth-; er,” he said at the 11 p.m. victory cel-* ebration Tuesday. “We have to grow beyond the partisanship of the last two months. “Tomorrow morning when w» wake up we’re going to roll up out selves and keep the promises we made.” » Pledging to keep up the fight fo( public education, Mr. Beyer sai<t Democrats will push legislation in the Senate to put a computer in every classroom, shrink class sizes, tighten up the school system and to reinvest’ in higher education. “We said that our central driving passion in life was to make Virginia schools the best in the country.” Mr. Beyer’s bipartisan tone, however, was not shared by some Democrats. * “Don’t make any mistake about it — and he’s [Allen] not going to like it, but — this is his referendum,” Det Moss said about the Democratic vie-; tory. “We will work with the governor when he’s right, but when he’s wrong, we’re going to let him know it. “I got a letter from my would-be successor saying he wanted us to put together a transition team. We got a transition team, and it’s 52 (sic) in number.” Secure Your Future Today Buy U,S. Savings Bonds

• Community News • Obituaries Rappahannock News • Real Estate • Classifieds WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1995 Bittinger Perfoms Magic Act By LEE BIRD Rappahannock Newi Contributing Writer Before a rapt group of artists, would-be artists and fascinated viewers who filled the Library’s meeting room to capacity and spilled over into the children’s section, Sperryville’s own portraitist, Ned Bittinger, displayed his skills by undertaking to paint a portrait of Judge Douglas Gmsburg in two hours. The occasion was the Library’s First Friday Series program on Nov. 3. In the course of setting up his equipment, adjusting the lights, and squeezing gobs ofyoiI paint on to his palette, Mr. Bittinger explained his general approach to painting a portrait. By the time he had finished his preliminaries and smeared a medium, flesh-toned background on the blank Canvas where the face was later to appear, 15 minutes had elapsed. Was it possible to complete the picture in the short time remaining? As John Trott said from the audience, quoting a line from Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest, “The suspense is terrible; I hope it will last.” (Act III) The first facial features to take shape were the eye sockets, two dark smudges on the flesh-toned background. Then the nose, the length of which was carefully measured by the artist with a stick held vertically at arms’ length toward the subject’s face. The mouth and chin followed, each measured as before, and the shadow outlining the right side of the sitter’s face. The Judge’s white hair and beard were roughed in, as well as the ear visible to the artist. By this time, one hour into the demonstration, a barely recognizable face had emerged on the canvas. Having completed the general outline of the subject, Mr. Bittinger moved, with a fistful of brushes large and small, to work up the details, explaining exactly what he was attempting with each stroke of his brush. He painted the contours and shadows of the cheeks and forehead, and modified the mouth, brown and nostrils after carefully squinting at the sitter, and explaining the function of Rappahannock Actresses Rappahannock News Staff Photo by Cindy Mahan Joyce Abell and Sharon Wyrrick will star in onewoman productions at Ki Theatre this weekend. _ i Song Writing Workshop Moved to Charlottesville The legendary poet, songwriter and raconteur, Charles John Quarto, will be performing with Paul Reisler and Martha Sandefer of Trapezoid and Steve Gillette and Cindy Mangsen, at the Prism in Charlottesville at 8 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 17th. Mr. Quarto, Mr. Gillette and Mr. Reisler will also present their workshop, “Poetic Songwriting, Creativity and Inspiration” at the Prism at 10 a.m. on Saturday morning. The song writing workshop was originally scheduled to be held at Ki Theatre in Washington but was moved to Charlottesville to accommodate a larger crowd. Mr. Quarto is a poet, songwriter, master teacher, spiritual channel, healer and one of the most entertaining individuals to ever touch down on this planet. His songs have been recorded by The Band, Willie Nelson, Cher, Waylon .Jennings, Jennifer Warnes, Don Williams and a host of others. Some of his best known songs include; “Geronimo’s Cadillac,” “Mama Know The Highway,” and “Grapes on the Vine.” Joni Mitchell calls him, “My mental twin.” Graham Nash says he’s “Absolutely brilliant and must be heard.” He’s performed on the David Frost Show and in the Hollywood Bowl. His performances are completely unique — a brilliant combination of poetry, humor and social commentary. As a duo, Paul Reisler and Martha Sandefer focus on their original songs blended together with Paul’s original guitar and hammered dulcimer instrumental compositions. The duo’s emphasis on story and song is firmly rooted in the long innovative tradition of Trapezoid. And Trapezoid has a long 20 year history of innovation. Sing Out Magazine recently called Trapezoid “one of America’s most creative .ensembles.” Trapezoid’s two new albums, “Remembered Ways” and “Long Time Down This Road” were recently released on Azure Records. In addition to writing all of the music the duo performs, Mr. Reisler plays the guitar, hammered dulcimer, bass and doumbec. Martha Sandefer performs on guitar, bass and vocals. Steve Gillette’s songs have been sung by legions of major artists including Garth Brooks, John Denver, Waylon Jennings, Gordon Lightfoot, Anne Murray, Linda Ronstadt, Jerry Jeff Walker and Don Williams. He has recorded four albums of his music and is the author of Songwriting and the Creative Process which has just been published by Sing Out Publications. He’ll be performing in the concert with Cindy Mangsen. For more information on this rare concert and workshop in Charlottesville call the Prism at (804) 97Prism. squinting. A general clamor arose from the audience: “What about the eyes?” Mr. Bittenger replied, “They come later,” as he addressed himself to the hair and beard, which had been merely colored in without detail. He introduced highlights and shadow, giving depth and realism to the hair. He painted more colorful definition of the cheeks and forehead, touching up the still wet underlying paint by quick, bird-like dabs with his brush. An hour and a half had elapsed. At last he said he was ready to put eyes into the sockets. He did so amid murmurs of approval. The face was now recognizable; indeed, viewers expressed amazement that such a likeness could have been accomplished in so short a time. Someone asked about the glints in the eyes caused by the light shining on Judge Ginsburg’s face. Mr. Bittinger remarked, as he dabbed them in, that his audiences generally said “A-A-A-H” at this point. No sooner had the glints been applied than the dutiful audience exhaled en masse, “A-A-A-H”. With the portrait now nearly complete, the viewers were invited to stand, move in for a closer inspection of the work, and/or partake of refreshments. During this final part of the painting, highlights were touched up, shadows and background were filled in, and the sitter’s shirt was painted to the shoulders. Strokes of vivid colors were added in various areas of the painting. It was 10 o’clock; the work had been accomplished. The result: a startlingly lifelike portrait of Judge Girisburg, who had, with consummate patience, sat virtually motionless in a glare of light as the work proceeded. There was a round of applause. Small groups collected in front of the canvas, admiring the work and daring enterprise of the artist, who had so convincingly demonstrated his ability simultaneously to paint, answer questions, and talk his way through a portrait within the allotted time. The audience left in a state of enlightenment. The portrait will remain for a short time in the Library for general inspection. The Dec. 8 Friday evening program at the Library will feature a talk by Walter Nicklin on the Rappahannock River.

Jordan's Art Show Is a Tour de Force By ROBIN PURNELL Rappahannock Nef* Contributing Writer This large collection of paintings and drawings by local artist June Jordan is a testament to her dedication and hard work. Her self discipline and adventuresome explorations of her materials to reach her visual goals is something I have always admired in her work. The current show at The Middle Street Gallery consists of bold, colorful landscapes, portraits and figure studies, the majority of which are pastels. June handles this difficult medium with confident skill and an energetic technique. There are over 30 pieces to gaze at and I have decided to concentrate my remarks to a few pieces that 1 particularly respond to. One of my favorites is the enigmatic painting entitled “Wedding Slippers.” Picture a young, dark haired woman dressed in a simple, crisp white wedding gown sitting cross-legged on an industrial strength folding table in what appears to me to be a high school gymnasium. On the floor sits a pair of empty, brilliant red slippers. The woman has a sardonic grin on her pretty face and 1 wonder “What’s going on here?” This painting has a narrative quality that I find so very intriguing. June’s sense of composition is at its best here and I can tell from her work how much she loves the challenges of composition. In this painting June has managed to force the cool colors to recede, a neat trick to be appreciated by all colorists. Another fine painting is “Tara” — a bold compositional statement in black, rust, warm and cool grays with a daring slash of red. This strong portrait of a woman in black ensconced on a couch with her arms spread akimbo is a study of the abstract elements of space, color, volume and composition. I love the daring band of red behind the subject’s head and the expert handling of proportions of the human form. “Midsummer Afternoon” is perhaps the boldest landscape of the two shows. Using out-of-this-world colors — a peony pink sky, turquoise lake, cobalt blue grass and orange yellow light, June creates a perfectly believable landscape. The Hat planes of color work to create an illusion of space. The si louettes of trees, some of which have unnaturally curved branches, all work together to visually say “three.” The color, composition Review and fascinating shapes all come together to form a brilliant and intriguing painting. Included in this show are many small pastel figure studies and intimate portraits. The figure drawings are all very fine and exhibit June’s ability to draw using line to describe form and proportion. My favorite of these is a tiny pastel entitled “Dog and Figure.” Take a look at how sparingly June has used slashes of tan and white pastel with an overlay of expressive black line to describe the recumbent body of the dog. The technique brings to mind the simplicity of oriental poetry and painting. The cool and restrained portrait “Sharon” is a sensitive and careful rendering of the human face and hands. It has a solidity that I find missing in some of the other pastel portraits. “Nancy” for instance, seems vague and uncertain. I don’t come away from that drawing with any sense that Nancy is a real person. “Patchwork,” another strong painting that I was immediately drawn to, has a Matisse-like blending of bold patterns and flat colors. Although I admire the painting overall, I found the muddy shadows of the model’s face unappealing — too black-too dark. It robbed the face of its life and becomes dark, inappropriate paint. Please take a moment to visit the gallery and view June’s work. Your Scottish Music and Dancing Cortiing Soon to The Theatre “A Highland Fling,” music and dance of Scotland, comes to The Theatre at Washington, at 8 p.m., on Saturday, Nov. 18. The program features Highland dancing, country dancing, bagpipe medleys, and Scottish folk songs. The Highland dances, as distinct from Scottish country dancing, are solo dances. They were originally performed by males and reflected the warlike character of the Highlanders. Separate dances have been developed for females and are known generally under the rubric “ladies” dances. Sarah Bogolin and Eileen Grant are the Highland dancers performing at the Theatre. The program draws its name, “A Highland Fling,” from one of the Highland’s best known dances. But the program also presents Scottish country dancing three, four, or five couples move in patterns to lively music. They are performed by Elizabeth Lee Barnes with the Demonstration Team of the Scottish Country Dance Society of Washington, D.C. Traditional music for the evening is provided by Greg O’Brien on bagpipes, playing medleys made up of marches, slow airs, jigs, strathspeys, and reels. Greg O’Brien is Pipe Major of the Washington Scottish Pipe Band. Lorraine Duisit, Rappahannock’s* well known ballad-singer, formely with Trapezoid, sings folk songs of Scotland to her own folk harp accompaniment. Tickets for the concert are $13.50 with reservation, $15 at the door. Children’s admission is half price. Reservations are recommended. Phone 675-1253. spirits will be lifted by the bursts of color that greet you at the door and you will be pulled into June’s vision of our world. It is very unique. My personal favorite of all June’s work hangs at the Rappahannock Public Library. It is a full length, life size self portrait entitled “Hen and Me.” this painting is so striking it takes your breath away. There’s June! And she has truly captured herself, looking at you with startled eyes and a wry smile on her lips. Holding a chicken, wearing a stunning turquoise necklace, barefoot, next to a glowing firebox —— all these elements turn viewing this painting into an adventure. It’s guaranteed to make you smile. My only small criticism is that I wish she had painted her hands as well and as solidly as she executed her bare feet. Be sure to take a close look at the landscapes in the conference room, especially “Rivers at Edisto.” June’s horizontal bands of bold color and quick painterly brushstrokes create the illusion of space. While you view this painting try to imagine what it would look like upside down. Congratulations June on a job well done! The shows will continue through Nov. 26. Gallery hours are Monday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Friday thru Sunday 11 a m. to 6 p.m. Call The Middle Street Gallery at 6753440.

'Belle du Jour' is 2nd Movie In RAAC's Friday Film Series The Rappahannock Association for the Arts and the Community (RAAC) will show the second movie in its Third Friday Film Series at The Theatre on Gay Street at 8 p m. on Friday, Nov. 17. According jo film critics, “Belle du Jour” isjyi iridescent revival of director Xuis Bunuel’s 1967 erotic classic storing Catherine Deneuve. One reviewer writes that “Belle du Jour” is “wonderful to see, not only for Catherine Deneuve’s great beauty and her underappreciated acting talent, but also for Director Bunuel’s cool, wittily sardonic shaping of this story of a bored young Paris wife whose sex life with her surgeon husband is too tame to suit her tastes." Hypnotic and exquisite, “Belle du Jour" is the quintessence of director Bunuel’s beliefs about the nature of good and evil, of eroticism, love and morality. Bunuel’s refusal to judge his characters allows the viewer to go beyond moral distinctions and reach, with the heroine Severine, a sense of liberation. The film is rated R and is in French with subtitles.

Food Safety Is a Concern As We Prepare for Thanksgiving : By HELEN SMITH Extension Agent, Home Economics Last week the computer mail to our office brought an interesting feature on food safety regarding “takeout” turkey dinners since that seems to be the increasingly modem thing to do. It is the way some families of today are trying to have the traditional meal without the usual shopping and preparation. Complete holiday dinners are available from restaurants, caterers and supermarkets. “As with home prepared turkey dinners, however, a safe take-out holiday meal depends on proper consumer handling of foods after the safely cooked dinner is picked up or delivered,” says Susan Conley, director of USDA's Meat and Poultry Hotline. Calls to the Hotline indicated that some of the handling advice consumers were getting was unsafe. And questions about ready prepared turkeys were on the increase. As a result of these concerns. Hotline food safety experts talked with food scientists in government and academia as well as allied health personnel, consumer advisers, consumer groups, grocery retailers, restaurant representatives and trade groups to develop some advice for keeping the take-out holiday meal safe. - I Tips From USDA’s Meat And Poultry Hotline “Here are some of the take-out food safety tips for handling of ready prepared holiday turkey dinners that we agreed were most important,” said Susan Conley. Hot from the Oven: Pick up the food HOT and keep it HOT. Keeping foods warm is not enough. Harmful bacteria multiply fastest between 40 degrees and 140 degrees F. To keep turkey hot, set oven temperature at 200 degrees F or higher — enough to maintain an internal temperature of 140 degrees F or above when measured with a meat thermometer. Stuffing and side dishes must also stay HOT. Handle Turkey Dinners Safely: It’s not a good idea to try and keep the foods hot longer than two hours. If eating much later, turkey and trimmings will be safer and tasted better if you remove all stuffing from the turkey cavity immediately and refrigerate. Cut turkey off the bone: slice breast meat; legs and wings may be left whole. Refrigerate turkey meat, potatoes, gravy and vegetables in small, shallow containers. Keep Cold Foods cold: Some turkey dinners are cold when you pick them up or when they’re delivered. For turkey and trimmings which the establishment has refrigerated after cooking, refrigerate as soon as you get home (always within two hours of pickup). Do not reheat the turkey whole. If you plan to reheat the cold turkey, carve and refrigerate it as above. Cooked Frozen Turkeys with the USDA Inspection Seal: These turkeys have been processed under controlled conditions. Follow package directions Haktz Construction Co., Inc If you're planning to build a new home or addition, or you want to remodel, give us a call for a FREE ESTIMATE. We've been doing quality work at a reasonable price for over 30 years. — John D Hertz, President 540-364-2054 HOME ECONOMICS for thawing, reheating and storing. Stuffed Turkeys: Buying a refrigerated, fully cooked, stuffed turkey is not recommended. Storing Leftovers: Perishable foods such as turkey and side dishes should not be out of the refrigerator for more than two hours. Store leftover cooked turkey and side dishes in the refrigerator at 40 degrees F or below for 3 to 4 days; stuffing and gravy, 1 to 2 days. Reheating Cooked Dinners and Leftovers: Always reheat leftovers thoroughly to 165 degrees F or until hot and steaming. Bring gravy to a rolling boil. In the microwave oven, cover food and rotate dish so it heats evenly. Hotlines To Call In addition to the USDA’s Meat and Poultry Hotline, there are several commercial companies that provide a turkey help-line for consumers during the holidays. And, you can still call your local Extension Office at 6753619 for information on nutrition and food safety. USDA’s Meat and Poultry Hotline: If you have questions about meat and poultry safety, call a turkey genie-us at the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline toll free at 1-800-5354555. Hotline home economists and registered dietitians will answer calls in person 10 a m. to 4 p.m. (ET) Monday through Friday year round, and in November, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays. The Hotline staff will also answer questions the weekend before Thanksgiving, Nov. 19 and 20, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (ET). In addition, the Hotline will be open on Thanksgiving Day from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. (ET).
