Girls’ softball team wins state title, heads to Florida By Jed Duvall and Briar Suzanne Bogin With seven of its 14 players from Rappahannock, the Culpeper Junior League All-Star softball team is headed to Florida for the Southeastern Regional Tbumament. The team brought home the state title after a clean sweep in the winner’s bracket at the playoffs last week. “These are not only good ball players, but great young ladies as well,” said team manager Earl Mills of Rixeyville. The pride was clear in his voice as he went on to describe the hard work and dedication of each player on the team. The girls are 13 and 14 years old, many having played together since they were eight. The All-Stars were selected by their peers in June. See SOFTBALL, Page A8 Six of the seven girls from Rappahannock will most likely be in the starting line-up in Florida. These girls aren’t just good, they’re outstanding.’ Earl Mills Team manager Lighting ordinance likely to pass By Nicholas M. Horrock Rappahannock News Staff Writer Passage of a lighting ordinance for Rappahannock County was delayed Monday for a field test of "foot candle power,” but there appeared to be sufficient votes on the Board of Supervisors to pass this historic and hard fought legislation. Chairman Charles K. “Pete” Estes ended a sometimes tense hour and a half public meeting by instructing County Administrator John McCarthy to arrange for the members of the board to view lights at night to acquaint themselves with the brightness of “foot candle power,” the measure used to set lighting power in the county’s proposed ordinance. The field viewing will take place on Aug. 18 after darkness falls at about 9 p.m. Passage of the lighting ordinance will end a debate that began five years ago, leaving one version of the law languishing for months at the Board of Supervisors and resulting in growing acrimony among some county residents. The ordinance presented Monday according to See LIGHTING, Page A8 Passage of the lighting ordinance will end a debate that began five years ago. County receives land gift By Nicholas M. Horrock Rappahannock News Staff Writer Former Washington Mayor Dean Morehouse and his wife, Linda, who gave the county the land for the Rappahannock County Library have provided a new gift of 2.59 acres near the library property. Dean Morehouse presented the land to the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors at its monthly meeting Monday. The gift was gratefully received and applauded by an audience there for a hearing on the lighting ordinance. County Administrator John McCarthy said it will permit the building of a visitors’ center for the county and storage offices on the library complex. Other action The Board of Supervisors: • Set Sept. 8 as the date for a public hearing on the Rappahannock County School Board’s request for some $4 million in bonds to complete a construction program at the elementary school and the high school. The hearing will be held in the high school auditorium. The projects include an auxiliary gym, a new running track, air conditioning and electrical work, a See GIFT, Page A8 Spring SOL scores surge By Briar Suzanne Bogin Rappahannock News Staff Writer Students in both Rappahannock County public schools passed the Standards of Learning (SOL) tests this spring at a higher rate than the same time last year. The pass rate improved in nearly 60 percent of the tested subjects. This good news was presented to the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors by School Supt. Bob Chappell at its Monday meeting. “We feel that these numbers are indicative of both Rappahannock schools being fully accredited See SOL, Page A6 Meetings • On Tuesday, Aug. 10 the Rappahannock County School Board will meet at 6:30 p.m. (closed session) and 7:30 p.m. (public session) at the Rappahannock County High School band room. • On Wednesday, Aug. 11, the Town of Washington will hold its monthly Town Council meeting at 7:30 p.m. at the Town Hall on Gay Street.

Horrock Rappahannock News Staff Writer After a supportive July 4th turnout, a Flint Hill parade and convention parties, the Democrats are getting a feeling that they may be able to reverse four decades of presidential defeats in Rappahannock County. Linda Dietel, vice chairwoman of the Democratic Party here said in an interview this week that after years of posing as “independents,” because of dismay with the national party ticket, Democrats are coming back to the party to follow Senators John Kerry and John Edwards in 2004. “People are coming out of the woodwork, showing up at meetings and signing up, “ she said. What is happening here echoes what Democratic Gov. Mark Warner told the Democratic National Convention in Boston last week. “Moses wandered in the desert for 40 years. Virginia has been wandering in the Republican desert for 40 years. But let me tell you: This Bush can’t lead us to the promised land. This year our wandering is over.” The signs for county Democrats have been small but meaningful: 120 people or so turned out for the See DEMOCRATS, Page A2 §6 People are coming out of the woodwork, showing up at meetings and signing up.

Box 59, Washington, Virginia 22747 From kitchen scraps to black gold By Alison Hectcs Special to the Rappahannock News Composting isn’t just for the savvy gardener anymore. The next time you visit the county landfill, think about your waste and consider what you could recycle at home. It is estimated that 15 to 20 percent of landfill waste could be composted at home. So what exactly is compost? Compost is the end result of a process that converts organic wastes into a dark, rich humus that can be used as a mulch, fertilizer, and soil conditioner. Direct benefits of compost include: • Improved soil structure • Eases cultivation • Improves root growth • Improves water infiltration • Improves drought tolerance • Reduces fertilizer needs • Reduces soil compaction • Reduces landfill load Getting started Starting a backyard compost pile is easy. Pick a spot away from the house about 4x4 feet. Create a square by using planks, concrete blocks, hay bales, chicken wire or used freight pallets. One side should be removable for easy maintenance. Many cornposters are also commercially available. The base of the compost pile should consist of a mix of coarse yard and garden scraps. This can include small twigs, com stalks, leaves and straw. This layer should help the pile’s water drainage and air flow. Next, you can start alternating layers of kitchen scraps and garden waste, a nitrogen- rich layer ( fresh grass clippings or hay) and a one-inch layer of soil. It is important to add a layer of soil because it contains the microorganisms which are needed to complete the process. Continue alternating layers until the box becomes full or you run out of material. Maintaining the pile The pile needs to stay moist and may require occasional watering to keep the compost moist, but not soggy. Every three to five weeks the pile needs to be turned. With a pitchfork or similar tool, move the outside material to the inside and the inside material to the outside. This helps with air flow and keeps the pile evenly moist. Clean Keep out OF THE PILE • Fats and meat products • Dairy products • Thick leaves (magnolia) • Weeds • Charcoal ashes • Diseased plants • Dog/cat manure cat litter or alfalfa meal can be added to the pile to reduce odors. End result If your compost pile is started with shredded material and the composting environment was just right, you could have “black gold” within two months. If you tend to the pile with a little less enthusiasm, you should expect the end product within three to six months. No matter how much effort you put into this product, the end definitely justifies the Throw in the pile • Fruit/veggie peels • Eggshells • Coffee grounds/filter • Grass clippings • Leaves (shredded) • , • Teabags • Garden scraps • Dryer lint • Straw/hay • Shredded newspaper • Fireplace ashes means. The wonderful black crumbly humus will spoil your plants in the garden and landscape. For additional information on composting or gardening, please call the local extension office at 675-3619. The Fauquier County Master Gardeners can also take your calls. (540-341-7950 ext. 19) Alison Hectus is the Horticulture Extension Agent for Planning District 9. She can be reached at (540) 3417950.

Republicans have often trounced Democrats in Rappahannock. In 1988, President Bush’s father polled 1,657 over Peter Dukakis’ 1,003. Bush stayed nearly 400 votes ahead of Gore, but in 1996, President Bill Clinton showed Democrats what could be done by polling within 100 votes, 1,405 to 1,505, for Sen. Bob Dole. In Virginia there is no party registration. Rappahannock has 5,074 registered voters out of a population of some 7,000 persons Laura Bland, spokesperson for the state Democratic Party said similar reports are coming in from all over, even Republican strongholds like Lynchburg, Va., where conservative churchman Howard Falwell has been a dominant political force. She said a recent “meet up “ there had Democrats “hanging from the rafters.” Bland said that the primary in the spring identified some 400,000 Democratic voters. Republicans have reacted to this with derision. Ken Hutchison, state director for President Bush, told The Washington Post recently that he doesn’t “believe a liberal, Massachusetts, flip-flopping senator will persuade Virginia voters with Virginia values to break a trend that we’ve been carrying since 1964.” Walter Longyear, the former chairman of the Rappahannock Republicans said the only the thing the Democrats are going to win is Massachusetts. "The Democrats have been taken over by a fringe of radical and extreme left wingers. They're not talking to the American people but to themselves. They decided to make President George Bush the enemy not Osama bin Laden." SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE SAVE un s A V E S A V E S A V E S A V E S A V E DRIVEWAYS!

Neighbors New look for Forest Grove Church; old ways of traveling Forest Grove Church is proud to announce that the exterior and interior painting and repairs are almost finished. In addition, a new board fence has been installed on the right side of the church and will be painted soon. The Forest Grove Church family also wants to remind everyone that “Kids Game Night” is scheduled for Aug. 7 at the Old Forest Grove School. Bring your children or just come and enjoy the fun. Refreshments will be served. Vivian Yancey and her VlEWTOWN Linda Hitt 937-4221 V T friend Maxine Malenda traveled to Washington, D.C. with the Amissville Senior Citizen Group and visited the Holocaust Museum. The community welcomes the “rebirth “ of the old Harry Cooke home. The newly painted roof and trim work have really established the place as a beautiful residence. Please notice this house across from the Old Viewtown Store. Local history Concerning some local history, I am excited to report that an unusual old book came through our store’s purchases this week. (The Hitts operate Slindys New and Used Treasures in Culpeper which has antiques and Rappahannock memorabilia.) The small manual, titled “ Mitchell’s New Travelers Guide Thfough the United States” was published in 1851 and gives schedules and routes for stagecoaches. According to this guide, if you lived in the present day Viewtown area during the early 1850s, the closest point to catch the stage coach would be at JefTersonton, Va. This line traveled from Alexandria to Lynchburg and back. It made 19 stops along the way. A local resident, during that time, by horse or wagon, would have an estimated twohour journey to Jeffersonton to catch the stage as it came up from Fauquier Springs. An alternate plan would be to take the Richmond Road to Culpeper and catch the same stage since Culpeper was the next stop after Jeffersonton. A traveler in those days could get to many towns and villages using the Stage Lines, but they would have to make many transfers. For example, a local person traveling to Winchester would have to catch the stage at Jeffersonton on its way back to Alexandria. Arriving in Alexandria, they would take a local coach over to Georgetown and then connect with the Winchester Line. The Orange and Alexandria railroad came to Culpeper in 1854 and that made traveling a little easier. In modem times, we take it for granted that we can get to Winchester in one hour. The modem day trip to downtown Washington, D C., however, is not much quicker that it was in 1851! Crystal Heflin heads for Florida championship game Congratulations to our own Crystal Heflin and the Culpeper Junior League AllStar softball team for a state championship win that will take them to Fort Myers, Fla., for a chance at the Southeastern Regional title. The final half-inning of that game was tense: all bases were loaded, the score was tied, and then came the pitch and hit that made our young ladies the state champs. The coach noted that “both sides played a tight game, and the champs were so happy and relieved. The most relieved player on the field was likely 14-year-old Crystal Heflin, who pitched all seven innings.” Heflin is proud of her teammates and the group hopes for another win in Boston Marie F. Atkins 987-8802 Florida where they will go up against eight teams Aug. 6-12. Several other Rappahannock girls are on the team as well. Crystal is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gregg Heflin and a student at Rappahannock High School. Lindsey Williamson of Reva Way, along with 93 other students, is attending Virginia Itch's Governor's School for Agriculture in Blacksburg. An announcement has been made of the marriage of Emily Eliss to Roger Nicholson at New Salem Baptist Church. The new Mrs. Nicholson was a former Boston resident and is employed as Food Service Manager at Emerald Hill Elementary School in Culpeper. Mr. Nicholson is a survey field chief with Huntly, Nyce and Associates in Warrenton. They are making their home in Culpeper. Sympathy is extended to Mrs. Armstead Johnson upon the loss of her daughter, Linda Carole, who at 61 passed away at Culpeper Health Care on Wednesday. Mrs. Johnson and her late husband Robert were well known in the Sperryville area, having run a store on Main street for many years. A Wednesday guest of Janet Peregory was her aunt, Mrs. Alvin Atkins of Sperryville. Mrs. Atkins was also an overnight guest of another niece, Brenda Frazier in Culpeper, on Saturday. Jessica Frazier spent last week at Camp Happyland in Richardsville. The camp is sponsored by the Salvation Army, with Capt. Kelly Iglehart as director. The children enjoyed swimming and other activities. The director’s hope is that when a camper leaves, he or she has had some encounter with Christ and they know that God loves them the way they are. Congratulations to Amanda Smith who was featured in a Culpeper paper’s column “Meet your Neighbor.” Amanda is the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Dallas Smith in Boston, and is a student and a Belk employee. Town researches options for wastewater system The Washington Tbwn Council is researching options for a wastewater treatment facility for the town. Council members have visited many facilities, even ventured to other states to educate themselves on the subject, but have yet to see the Sperryville water treatment site. The Tbwn Council was set to take the tour this week from Troy Jenkins, and will hopefully have a better understanding of alternative treatment solutions. Church news The Rev. Phil Bailey has just returned from Eagle Bute, S. D. where he spent a week working with the Lakota tribe. Rev. Bailey, Frieda Herman, a teacher' at Rappahannock High School, and Ellen Mustoe, a retired probation officer, joined 12 members of the North Star Baptist Church to send their message of hope to a poor society where alcohol consumption is excessive. With morning bible school and afternoon music and fun, the team offered a path that steered away from intoxication. In other news, Michelle and Gary Schwartz of Heritage House Bed & Breakfast have had two visitors for the past week. Michelle’s nieces, Court Washington Clarissa Pintado 675-3395 laquariss@aol.com ney Ashley, and Kristen Roth have spent the week with their aunt and uncle hiking in White Oak Canyon and having tea at the Inn at Little Washington. I bet they love to visit their Aunt Michelle and Uncle Gary. Casey Longyear, daughter of Walt and Susan Longyear of Fairlea Farm Bed and Breakfast, celebrated her 20th birthday this week.

Audit Bureau of Circulations www.TimesCommunity.com THURSDAY, AUGUST 5, 2004 Our View Take a stand Attending a lighting ordinance hearing at the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors, we learn a lot of interesting things. Too much light can be dangerous says resident Clyde Humphrey, particularly to older people. If they roll into a light-flooded gas station bay to fill up, it will take minutes after they get back on the road for their eyes to grow accustomed again to the darkness. Ruth Richards of Piedmont District said the bright lights along many of the garish roads outside of Rappahannock are so bright that she has to shield her eyes, that they cause her pain. The massive lighting of the Greater Washington Metropolitan Area has seeped toward the county like a flood, changing forever things that many in Rappahannock County had known and loved for years. Russ Scovill who lives off Route 637 who once basked in the beauty of a rural evening, now says he has a “good view” of an arc of light from Front Royal and Warrenton, where no precautions were taken to control the commercial lighting as the years went forward. The owner of a bed and breakfast inn said it drives away the customers who come to Rappahannock to see the periodic solar shows that streak across the sky. Supervisor Roger Welch who grew up in Flint Hill says the night skies are different than when he was a child, lit by the reflected ambient light 20 or 25 miles away. The pastime of watching airplanes making lazy night approaches to Dulles Airport is gone because the planes disappear into ground light much more quickly. Many of the people at Monday’s hearing came to this county for its scenic beauty and gentle environment. They don’t see the ugliness of Route 1 south of Alexandria or the gas stations of Manassas as the accidental outgrowth of “progress,” but as the plot of avaricious international companies to use lighting as marketing, to out glare the competitor. Jeff Cowan of Wakefield District thinks the decisions of ugly lighting are made in big corporate headquarters thousands of miles from Rappahannock. “Do we want somebody from some corporate headquarters being able to decide on our lighting?” he asks. Many county residents believe the lighting war is nationwide as corporations run more and more unhampered over local governments and local wishes. The light ordinance which the bulk of the people at Monday’s hearing supports is, as resident Jim Gannon said, a very small beginning affecting only the few commercial zones of the county. But the people see it as an important step for the future, a shield if you will, that says the people of Rappahannock County are willing to stand up and fight for the lives they have chosen. The Rappahannock News stands with them. We urge the Board of Supervisors to adopt this ordinance.

But the Democrats have nominated Sen. John Kerry, the Senate’s number one liberal, and Sen. John Edwards, the Senate’s number four liberal. Put that down as no chance of the ticket carrying Virginia. This is not to disparage Gov. Warner who made a huge splash at the recent Democratic convention in Boston. He was all over the national television networks and got to make a four minute convention speech. During that talk he claimed that the Kerry-Edwards ticket could carry Virginia with a message of fiscal responsibility and economic opportunity. “In Virginia,” said Warner, “we Democrats are the party of balanced budgets, a fairer tax code and a stronger economic future.” The governor has certainly led his party in that direction* but the fact remains that the state party apparatus is pretty much in control of those who think like liberal national Democrats. Since a poll showed 90 percent of the Democrats attending the convention opposed the war in Iraq, one must conclude that pretty well reflected the feeling of the delegation sent by Virginia. At the same time, the party platform backs the war in Iraq, or at least says it must be hon Old Dominion Politics John Goolrick orably concluded, and that position is taken by the national candidates. Indeed, even TV correspondent Peter Jennings noted that the “red button” issues of abortion, gun control, increased defense spending, tax increases and the like were avoided during the carefully staged Democratic conclave. The obvious purpose was a John Kerry make-over to present him as a centrist, pragmatic, business-friendly war hero-Democrat in order to give him a chance to carry some states, such as Virginia, that have not been carried by a Democratic presidential candidate since Lyndon Johnson in 1964. The only poll that will count, as the saying goes, will come in November. But this observer thinks, along with many other pundits, that any great amount of expenditures of money or time in Virginia by Kerry will waste resources that could be better used in the socalled battleground states such as Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, et al. Should Virginia or some other southern states go for Kerry, then the game will be up for President George W. Bush. But I fail to see how Kerry can get there, for where he now stands with his even more liberal voting record than Sen. Edward Kennedy in the U.S. Senate. And nobody, despite the absence of the hot-button issues from the Democratic convention stage, could win the party nomination without being on the liberal side of the social issues. And the fact is that conservative Republicans have taken over the Virginia General Assembly largely on the back of their hard line on social issues coupled with a strong anti-tax message. Those who contend the presence of North Carolinian John Edwards on the ticket will boost Kerry’s chances in Virginia ignore the fact that Edwards chose not to seek reelection in his own state because he did not think he could win again. I have said that Edwards will be an asset in reaching out to independent voters in those states that will be in play for both parties, but I doubt if he will help much in the southern states. Still it has to be said that at the moment the Bush campaign seems pretty moribund in Virginia. While the Kerry forces are giving out bumper stickers to those who want them, Bush supporters who want bumper stickers are complaining that they cannot get them without paying for them on the internet. The Republican Party, though Virginia should be safe for Bush, will be wrong if it takes state voters for granted and does not mount a vigorous campaign. And though maybe things are happening that I am not seeing, there does not seem to be any widespread effort at the moment to light a fire under volunteers and to distribute campaign literature. I have heard some conspiracy theorists say that the reasons Bush-Cheney bumper stickers are not being given out is that at the last minute Cheney will step down and someone else such as Rudy Giuliani or Colin Powell will be chosen by Bush to run for vice president. I discount such speculation since I think if there were to be any Cheney dumping, it would have been done by now. After Warner’s talk and rounds of interviews in Boston, however, state GOP officials did unleash some tough attacks on him. The governor, whose popularity with state voters remains astronomically high, will likely campaign hard for the Kerry-Edwards ticket but it is doubtful if that popularity can be transferred to a Massachusetts liberal.

Making wine the J.D. Hartman way By Malcolm C. MacPhkrson Rappahannock News Staff Writer J.D. Hartman is a Rappahannock wine maker who makes wine with such bno, he seems to buckle with swash. Indeed, with his bristly moustache, toothy grin, combed back hair and blue eyes, he is missing only a parrot on his shoulder to look like a pirate—a description, by the way, that he rather invites. He corks about 3,000 annual bottles of luscious Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Tuscan Blend, Chardonnay and Vidal Blanc, under the label Christensen Ridge Winery, “The Winery of the Blue Ridge,” on 219 acres near Madison (eight acres in grapes), and three acres in Rappahannock, near Castleton Lakes (for John Jacquemin). He puts his harvested fruit together in inventive blends at the winery, which sits below a main house with a broad front porch beside a charming three-storv 18th century log cottage. As a "labor force,” it’s all Hartmans for now; his merry crew of grapevine attendants, harvesters, and wine-making helpers consists of sons, Tyler, 18, a recent graduate of Rappahannock County High School, and Jamie, 15, a sophomore at RCHS, and his daughter Katie, 10, at the Rappahannock Elementary School, who serves as her dad’s Girl Friday and chipper Rappahannock News Staff Photo Malcolm MacPherson WINE MAN: J.D. Hartman sits in the tasting room at the Christensen Ridge Winery surrounded by 60-gallon oak barrels waiting to be filled with this year’s vintage of Cabernet Franc, Vidal Blanc, and Merlot from the winery's acres of vines, some of which are in Rappahannock County. “be RIGHT AND WRITE in RITTENHOUSE’ Could Sandy Berger be another Jonathan Pollard? the American who is an Israeli spy. having given our top secrets to Israel!!

Debbi, the wife and mother of the clan, works in the vineyard weekends, and otherwise, for the Federal Aviation Administration at Dulles Airport in a section of the Air Traffic Control. As one of about 85 vintners in Virginia, J.D. Hartman (which stands for Jimmy Davis), comes across as refreshing as an ice cold rose’ on a warm summer’s day, at least for anybody who has grown bored with the Wine Spectator’s often arch view of vintners as rarefied aristocrats. These people, peering out from the glossy pages, never seem to have much else to do, really, but lounge at gingham-covered tables under shady live oaks sopping up their own wine and talking “nose” and “finish” with other nobs. Not Hartman, by a long shot. He was never very impressed with Virginia’s wine when he first tasted it more than 14 years ago. Over that time span, however, new growers came into the state and started making wine with a vengeance. “It’s unusual to drink a bad bottle of Virginia wine these days,” Hartman says, adding later that one of his products, a Chardonnay, won the Gold Virginia’s Cup for quality the first year out. He learned as he went in the business after retiring from the restaurant trade— he owned “High on the Hog” in Warrenton and another restaurant in Gainesville and left because he “couldn't stand it anymore," and leaves it at that. When he turned to wine, he worked for a friend, Jim Law of Linden Vineyard, and later another owner, Chris Pearmund of Pearmund Cellars took him under his wing. He started by asking questions that made him apostate, questions like, “Why should Virginia wine be aged in barrels for only nine months?” “Why not three months longer?” And he answered himself, “This was a time established by circumstances (of finance) and not by design (of providing a better quality vintage). Pm a maverick, a pirate. I can't talk the Wine Spectator talk. I watch and I do. People try to complicate (wine growing and making) more than they should. It scares people off. The further up the ladder you go—they say, ‘I’m picking up tobacco and tar’ in the wine taste—the worse it gets. What is that?” For one thing, at the Castleton Lakes, where he has installed a vineyard of Cabernet Franc and Viognier grapes for John M. Jacquemin and his family on their 360 acres, Hartman decided to protect the new tender vines from deer by bringing in two orphan dogs from the Rappahannock Animal Shelter, giving them a home and three acres to roam, contained by Invisible Fence collars. “He's done, really, all of it." said Jacquemin. At the Christensen Ridge Winery. J D. has established a tasting parlor in front of a room with two huge stainless steel, 2.700 gallon tanks where the wines will be contained before being transferred into 60-gallon oak barrels, which sit on racks that rise from floor to ceiling. In the back of the room sit pallets of cardboard boxes that hold the bottles into which the wine will be poured by an itinerant bottler sometime in the summer of next year Right now, the winery’s work centers on fretting over the vines, pruning and weeding, cursing the rain and praying for the sun to shine. Across a long lawn and looking up toward a continu ous ridge, the Hartmans have refurbished two guest houses that they rent out to weekend guests, one with 10foot ceilings, a country kitchen, and five bedrooms 'and a swimming pooli for as many as 14 people. The neighboring log cabin accommodates two guests in a single bedroom, with its own kitchen and a front porch sized right for sitting and sipping wine. The hills behind the houses are laced with walking and riding trails, and the quiet is profound. Hartman hopes to establish his vineyard over time, and he clearly is imbued with the spirit of adventure that wine growing and making demand, but for him, the desire for adventure does not end there. He has his sights set on other places, other things, more in keeping with the piratical mind set. He sits on his porch looking out at the vineyard. He says, “Costa Rica is the place. Now there's where I'd like to be.” lography Portraits on Location Household Insurance Inventory Small Products Restorations Advertising & Public Relations Carl 2itzmann Photography • 937-6430 - czphoto@erols.com John Williams.

Those with highly spiritual learnings can carry on the good works of someone who has died, or they may dedicate some good works of their own to the deceased’s memory. Spiritual teachings also provide children with the sense that we are all small, but important, parts of a larger mosaic.

What keeps the dogs in? By George Rowand Rappahannock News Staff Writer Keeping a family dog happy, healthy, energetic and in its own yard has become more and more problematic as yards have become smaller and smaller. Mike Schultz thinks his product can solve that problem. He’s the local dealer for PetSafe Hidden Fence. “In subdivisions, you can’t put up chain-link fences or 6-foot tall cedar fences to keep the dog in your yard,” Schultz explained. “You either have to put it on a chain all day — which is not good for them — or you need Hidden Fence.” Flagging interest Schultz said his product differs from earlier, different types of invisible restraint, which require a buried wire for the signal and a collar for the dog. “A lot of people with dogs don’t do this system because of what they’ve heard,” he said. “ ‘Oh, it’s going to hurt your dog,’ they say, but this one is improved. It’s a gentle approach.” Schultz said that after he and his staff bury the line, they take the time to train the dog as to the line’s whereabouts and what it will mean to the dog if it gets too close to the line. The boundary is set up with tiny flags. “Flags are put up during training, and then they gradually fade out,” he said. “You take one, skip one, take one and skip one. Then a month later you take another one, skip one, and pretty soon, they’re all down. “The dog knows the boundary, and won’t approach it after they’ve been trained. “The dogs get 50 to 100 very low-level corrections, which gives them a really good idea of what’s going on,” he continued. “The collar can be set to tickle, instead of shock, the dog.” And, as Pavlov proved about a century ago, a properly trained dog will associate the flags with the correction. Over time the dog will come to stop short of the flags, and then — when the flags are removed — of the area where the flags had been. Charlie Allen, a dog trainer, was with Schultz at the time of the interview. Allen was throwing a Frisbee to three energetic dogs, all of whom had been trained. They would fly after the Frisbee, but if it was thrown past the flagged area, they would stop well short and would not go further. “We’re not going to install the system and walk away,” Schultz said. “We do a lot of training and hand-holding for owners.” Full coverage The system is priced by the number of dogs and the area to be covered. “For one dog and an acre of land, it’s $1,145,” Schultz said. “For one dog and a halfacre, it’s $995.” Schultz has applied the system to much bigger lots. “There are plenty of 30acre, 70-acre lots that we’ve done,” he said. “It’s not just the half-acre subdivision lots. There are plenty of fiveacre lots as well. “I give a 100 percent money-back guarantee if I can’t keep your dog in,” he continued. “We give unlimited training. My system has a ‘norun-through’ guarantee. I can keep dogs in that others can’t. Most dogs know that the world ends with the flags, and they stop. “I can contain cats, too,” he added with a laugh, “but most people don’t need that.” Schultz said he has been doing this for more than five years. His territory includes Loudoun and Prince William counties in addition to Fauquier. He is happy with the response he’s gotten from his clients. “We’re pretty busy right now,” he admitted. Schultz said that keeping pets, especially dogs, in their yards is important. “It keeps them safe. People get attached to them and they don’t want them running off.” His product will accomplish that, and something else, as well. Rappahannock News Staff Photos Mark F. Sypher SO CLOSE: Bee, a mixed breed, wants the frisbee in the foreground, but it’s too close to a PetSafe Hidden Fence buried line, and he’s been trained to stay away from that. “This fence is for the homeowner who doesn’t want to have to walk the dog 10 times a day,” he said. “With this system, a dog can have the run of the place and still be safe.” Michael Schultz and PetSafe Hidden Fences, Inc. can be reached at(540)3418500.

Lighting From Page A1 many of the 35 or so people at the hearing has been so clearly limited to commercial and industrial property that it removed the fear it would limit property owners’ rights. Several people said Monday the tightening of the ordinance had changed public attitudes across the county. Remarks at the hearing suggested that Estes and supervisors Robert Anderson, S. Bryant Lee and Roger Welch were likely to favor the law. Only Ronald Frazier of Jackson District remained steadfast in his opposition. He argued that the ordinance is unnecessary and the issue of controlling objectionable commercial lighting could better be handled on a case by case basis as applications for projects came before the county. Frazier has been girded in the past by a 300 signature petition filed by Helen Dixon of Amissville that opposed the law. Mrs. Dixon said Monday she still opposed the law and mentioned her petition, but she was one of only two citizens who spoke m opposition at the hearing. At previous meetings before the board or the Planning Commission, there were more opponents in the audience. The other outspoken opponent Monday was David L Konick, a local lawyer, who served as zoning administrator from 1981 to 1985. He argued that the board does not have the power under Virginia law to pass the ordinance and in doing so invites challenge and defeat. “I am not opposed to regulating lighting," Konick told the supervisors Monday. “That is not, unfortunately, the only issue before you." Konick wrote the Planning Commission on May 16 that the ordinance will violate the Dillon Rule “that precludes Rappahannock County from adopting such an ordinance because there is no provision of the Code of Virginia specifically authorizing such a local ordinance.” Konick’s objections have been widely circulated to the board and the commission, and published in the July 29 edition of the Rappahannock News. In writing to the Planning Commission, he warned them “to refrain being transformed in what amounts to a giant ‘Rappahannock County Home Owner’s Association’ that acts on the basis of what a vocal minority ( or even a vocal majority' aggressively support or oppose.” In his Rappahannock News piece Konick asked whether anyone has "actually heard the county attorney bless or endorse the ordinance," then noted that the County Attorney, Peter Luke’s view would be "but one legal opinion” anyway. Konick urged the county to either seek the guidance of the Attorney General on whether it has the power or seek an amendment to the state code. Luke told the board later in the Monday meeting that though there is no specific Virginia law permitting a Board of Supervisors to control lighting or support for “dark skies” and ‘lighting trespass” legisla We are pleased to welcome David A.

Culpeper Regional Hospital 83 Promoting health Preserving community. www culpeperhospital com tion, the Virginia code supports powers to regulate “the public health, safety, convenience and welfare” of the citizens of the county that would permit controlling the dangers or health hazards of lighting. He cited instances in Alexandria in 1984 and in Fairfax the same year where the Attorney General had supported local authorities on lighting of buildings and outside advertising. Luke said that though several jurisdictions had lighting ordinances, he could find no record that they had been challenged in court. Luke said he would have never let the lighting ordinance get this far if he thought it was illegal. The Planning Commission last month ignored Konick’s objections and gave the ordinance final passage. It appeared likely the Board of Supervisors will pass it as well. As supervisor Anderson said at Monday’s meeting, “Mr. Konick had his time in office and if he was in there now, I'd be listening td him,” but now Anderson said they were listing to Peter Luke. The proposed ordinance would only affect a handful of commercial and industrial zones in the county of limited size. It would require that plans for these locations contain lighting proposals designed to meet the “candle power” limits set by the law. A resident, Clyde Humphrey told the meeting, he could read a newspaper at night with lights at a nine candle power level. The proposed ordinance would permit outdoor lighting up to a 20 candle power level. Humphrey, who has worked hard for this ordinance as a private citizen and his wife, Gwen Hayes brought a Gift From Page A1 roof for the elementary school and the construction of a small classroom addition. • McCarthy was asked to prepare regulations for staggered election terms for members of the Board of Supervisors for a public hearing to be heard in October or later.

Speaker after speaker stressed that the long garishly lit commercial strips in other counties would ruin Rappahannock’s rural ambience and the reason many of them had moved here. Many like James Gannon and Jeff Cowan said it was a small step, but one that would put developers on notice about the county’s view. Hayes quoted from material that showed some big petroleum companies treat jurisdictions with lighting ordinances more gingerly that those without them. If the ordinance is ultimately passed, it could become law by fall.

Meanwhile, the Rappahannock County Board of Supervisors voted $1,500 for the outof-pocket expenses for these seven Rappahannock County players to travel to Florida to compete in the tournament. Winning the state championship guaranteed the team a spot in this weekend’s Florida tournament, where it will face off against the top teams from West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama and Florida. The girls’will start off the tournament with games against West Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina in the ‘A bracket. The remaining teams will play in the ‘B’ bracket. The top two teams from each bracket will compete in a single elimination contest the following day for the regional title. The next step is the softball World Series in Washington state. “If the team wins in Florida, they deserve every bit of it,” said Mills. “Not just the girls, but their parents too.” Parents of all 14 girls attended the state finals in Bristol last month, something Mills says helps make this team what it is today. “All of these parents are extremely supportive,” he added. Six of the seven girls from Rappahannock will most likely be in the starting line-up in Florida. “These girls aren’t just good, they’re outstanding,” boasted Mills. Many of his players can perform in more than one position, making it easier for him to give all the girls time on the field during a game. “If I were the head coach at Rappahannock High School, I’d be so pleased to see players like these on the way up,” he said. With their “whatever it takes” attitude, Mills has no doubt that all of his team members are winners. “I’d like to say thank you to Paul Gall and Carl Payne for helping get the Rappahannock league started over 15 years ago,” said Mills. “I’m glad these girls have had a chance to play the game.” The team leaves for Florida on Friday, and will play their games throughout the following week for the chance to head to Washington state for the World Series games later this month. Softball registration The Piedmont Softball Association in Amissville is ready to register participants for its fall program. The fee is $25, and the program is open to girls 5-12 years of age who reside in Rappahannock. New girls must bring birth certificates.

August 5, 2004 www.timescommunity.com Carrying Rappahannock memories around the world By Malcolm MacPherson Rappahannock News Staff Writer Few memories seem as intense as of the time when life was new and the whole world waited for us to grasp its treasures. For Kurt Volkert, a German boy visiting the land of his country’s recent enemies, Rappahannock County in the early 1950s contained the essence of memories so sweet, tney transiorm mm in tfte retelling, now at the age of 67, as if they happened yesterday. I fell in love with the daughter of the postmaster of Washington, Evelyn Tyler j Miller,” he says to a virtual stranger, A smiling wanly, as if to let you know he W will never abandon the memory of this ^k postmaster’s daughter. “I was really in love with her. 1 read m the newspaper’s social notes one week that she had spent the weekend at West Point (U.S. Military Academy). I knew I was out of the race. I don’t know what happened to her. But after she left me, I had to get out.” Remarkably, all these years later he still remembers each of her names. He also remembers the name of another young Rappahannock woman, Peachy Lane. “She called me at the time,” he says, as if to make up for the disappointment of Ms. Miller. “I was too dumb to understand that she liked me.” Returning here Recently, Volkert came back to Rappahannock after a lifetime of living dangerously abroad, first as a cameraman and later as a bureau chief for CBS News, a war photographer who documented the Indo-China War along with his old friend and colleague at CBS, David Schoumacher, a resident of Rappahannock whom Volkert and his wife Gisela were staying with, from Bonn. Germany. Volkert had come to America partly to reclaim memories of the county he loves, and also to bear witness for former CBS and NBC colleagues who died in the mid-seventies in Cambodia at the hands of Pol Pot’s Khymer Rouge one day as they entered a place in search of news they shouldnt have. The nine died a grim, violent death, and Volkert has produced a documentary of them and their demise as a form of memorial that will be shown at 8 p.m. on Oct. 3, on the History Channel. It is called “Nine Men Down.” Nothing in his life would have happened the same without Rappahannock, he is the first to admit. After World War II he came to Rappahannock as a teenager to stay with his “Uncle.” really a distant cousin from ►v Germany named Hennes Quasebarth, who had emigrat1^. ed to the United States in the 1920s and lived in Woodville on 120 acres of land. He was a gentleman mer married to. a younger, beautitul berman oman named Lola, who died tragically in an automobile accident one afternoon at the only intersection then in Sperryville. k “I lived on Uncle’s farm and was a cowboy,” Volkert recollects. “It was a lonely life and the onlv break was to Sunday lurch. I went to high school and was i foreigner feeling strange. People were kind to me, helpful and curious, and there was not a single exception.” The Superintendent of Schools at the time, a man named Winfrey, Volkert recalls, insisted that he attend high school, and he bent rules and regulations in order to enroll him. “My teachers had nothing but patience,” he says. “I spoke only fractured English.” He graduated in 1956, and because of his broken heart, he talked to an Army recruiter just to get away. “My Uncle wished me well, and I joined the Army,” he says. Military career Rappahannock played a part in his military career, too. He was based at first in Germany and one day without authorization took a jeep to visit his mother at her house in a neighboring town. He was “out of bounds,” and he knew it. A jeep ot military police naa tollowed him, and arrested him in front of his mother’s house. “They were merciless,” he recalls. Back at tfie base, he was brought into a military p<fnce station. A sergeant came out, and looked at Volkert oddly, finally asking him, “Are you Kurt See MEMORIES, Page B8 Rappahannock News Staff Photo Malcolm MacPherson MEMORIES: Kurt Volkert of Germany reminisces about his years growing up in Rappahannock in the early 1950s. He is standing in front of the former Washington School on Mt. Salem Avenue in Washington. The imitators of the bird world Who’s mimicking whom? By Bruce Jones Special to the Rappahannock News One thing we all love about birds is their singing and song. Their music soothes us, entertains us, and makes us want to watch and feed them, so they will stay around our homes. Etched in our memories are the cry of the hawk, the hoot of the owl, the click of the hummingbird, the chirp of the robin or the coo of the mourning dove. Birds have several types of music and sound: one communicates to their compatriots a readiness to mate; another says, “Good morning.” Others are warning cries that danger is near — “Look out!” Some calls are scolding, saying, “Get away from my nest or my babies.” Other sounds say, “This is my territory, please keep out.” Some of the bird songs we hear are imitations or copycat sounds that birds have heard other birds making either in their territory here or in their wintering grounds in Latin or South America. The birds sing from a conspicuous perch, and project a long series of complex phrases strung together, repeating a phrase many times. They capture the sounds they hear from others and make them their own. These impersonations titillate us with their clever masquerades, and the birds that produce these unique sounds are called “mimic thrushes.” Three of these mimics are somewhat common to Rappahannock: the gray catbird, the northern mocking Birds of Rappahannock bird, and the brown thrasher. They do sing and mimic a lot! The northern mockingbird and gray catbird have long, complex songs of warbles, squeaks, guttural notes and melodious phrases that sometimes go on for as long as 10 to 15 minutes. The males of these species do most of the singing, but some females can sing vigorously and occasionally counter-sing with the males. This singing appears to be most important during their pair bonding and/or territorial defense, but usually these birds sing throughout the year. The northern mockingbird differs Photo courtesy U S Fish & Wildlife Service BIRD SONGS: Some of the bird songs we hear are imitations or copycat sounds birds have heard other birds making. The northern mockingbird is one of the ‘mimics’ common to Rappahannock County. from the other two mimics in that the phrases they sing are stereotyped: each individual uses a repertoire of 150 to 200 phrases and repeats them the same way every time. Of the three bird mimics, only the northern mockingbird stays with us in Rappahannock the entire year and See BIRDS, Page B8 ‘My Architect:’ The secret life of Louis Kahn By Joanne Hilty Special to the Rappahannock News Louis Kahn, who died in 1974, is considered to be among the most important and visionary architects of the 20th century. Kahn, an immigrant Jew who overcame poverty and the effects of a devastating childhood accident, created a handful of intensely powerful and spiritual buildings. "My Architect,* an Academy Award nominee for Best Documentary Feature, id a brilliant film portrait by his son, Nathaniel Kahn. The Rappahannock Association for the Arts and Community is showing "My Architect," Friday, Aug. 6 at the Theatre in Little Washington at 8 p.m. Along with his celebrated artistic legacy, Kahn also left behind a personal life of secrets and broken promises. His dramatic death— alone, bankrupt and unidentified in m aaaa«fc — 9 “My Architect" will show at the Theatre in Little Washington on Friday, Aug. 6 at 8 p.m. ... VS?'-' • *?.*?%**£ f' .?* •*. v„\ >' ' >. the men’s room at Penn Station New York—revealed that he led not a double but ai triple life. In addition to his wife and daughter, Kahn also left behind two illegitimate children, both by different women with whom he had had long term relationships. One of these children, Kahn’s only son Nathaniel, 11 when his father died, sets out on a worldwide journey to discover who this legendary man really was and to try to understand his monumental work and the choices he made. Early in the film Nathaniel is seen rollerblading in the great courtyard of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, Calif. Completed in 1965, the institute is a masterwork of 20th-century architecture and a magnificent Kahn creation. In addition to the Salk Institute, the movie’s grand tour of Kahn’s buildings includes the library at Phillips Exeter Academy (1972) in Exeter, N. H., the Kimbell ArtMuseum in Fort Worth (1972) and the Yale Center for British Art (1974) in New Haven. Finally, Nathaniel visits the great complex of government buildings his father designed for the capital of Bangladesh (1983). Here Nathaniel gains the feeling that he has rejoined his father at last. The filmmaker reveals the haunting beauty of his father’s extraordinary creations and takes us deep within his own divided family. With all the emotional impact of a dramatic feature film, Nathaniel’s personal journey becomes a universal investigation of identity, a celebration of art and of life itself. The film is unrated and contains no potentially offensive images, but does include discussion of Kahn’s essentially polygamous lifestyle. Run time is 116 minutes. ■

As for this young boy, “the world is his oyster" in a manner of speaking. With encouragement from his family, the possibilities for the future stretch as far before him as his imagination and his determination wil allow. The famous author, Pearl S. Buck, said, “I do not believe in a child world... I believe the child should be taught from the very first that the whole world is his world, that adult and child share one world, that all generations are needed.” Indeed, our children art the future. Our new cars will rust..our houses fall to decay, yet we still have the possibility of a strong and shining fkiture when we educate our children to believe in themsdves and in the wisdom of their Heavenly Father Won’t you take time to worship as a family this week? Our future is in your hands. ‘Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it" [Proverbs 22:6] SUNDAY 11:1-22 MONOMT 1133-40 TUESOAT Hebrews 12:1 13 WEDNESDAY 12:14-2* mURSOAT 4:1-26 FRIDAY Gtittid 6:1 22 SATURDAY Gcntsk 12:12k captures seteciea cv in* American tsme society Copvngrt 2004, Keister Williams Newspaper Services.

Coinings and goings on Main Street By George Rowann Rappahannock News Staff Writer Soon you may not be able to tell the players without a scorecard ... or the businesses in Old Town Warren ton by their current locations. A game of musical chairs is about to take place. Businesses are leaving their current locations for new ones both in and out of town and at least one is shutting its doors for good. Gone away The biggest impact will happen at the building at First and Main Streets. Currently housing six businesses, two, Emma’s and Back In The Woods, will leave within weeks. For Beth Rogers, owner of Emma’s, the move is strictly personal. Her lease is running out, and she wanted to spend more time with her family. “I’m going to be a full-time mom to a three-and-one-half year old,” Rogers said. This is something I can come back to when she’s in school. Just yesterday there was ballet and a swim class. I’m very happy with my decision, and it took me a year to make it.” Back In The Woods was a store unlike many others. Books and especially imaginative puppets filled the place. The store hosted a spectacular midnight party when the latest Harry Potter book came out a couple of years ago. Now owner Better Sherman is heading south. “My rent is paid until the fifteenth of September,” Sherman said, “and I will be moving to Blairsville, Georgia, about an hour and a half northeast of Atlanta.” There she intends to resurrect her store, though on a smaller scale. She was sharp in her criticism of what she sees going on. “I’m don’t like what’s happening,” she said. “Border’s is coming in, and if they don’t Warrenton is going to be left without a book store. They kept raising my rent, here and at home, and my sales weren’t that good [to afford the increases].” Still the optimistic Sherman was eager to begin a new phase of her life. “I turned 71 yesterday, and I deserve to play a little bit,” she said. Still, she is going to miss Warrenton. “I do enjoy putting a good book in a child’s hand,” she said. Jim Timberlake, who owns the building, said that he did not have tenants to fill the two p nin : u um s Rappahannock News Staff Photo/Mark F Sypher BACK IN THE WOODS: Owner Bette Sherman is taking her book, gifts and puppet store and moving to a small town in Georgia. Sherman cited high rent and a desire 'to play' as the reasons she’s leaving. I count 60 retail businesses in a small downtown, and that is considerable. Anne-Marie Walsh, Partnership For Warrenton empty spaces yet. “I’m a little particular about who goes into the front space,” Timberlake said. “We need an anchor right there to help the other businesses in the building.” Some of the other businesses in that building are laboring under the rumors that others are leaving as well. “I was in Molly’s [Irish Pub, across Main Street], and there were three or four people that came up to me and asked me when I’m closing,” said Dave McCrabb, owner of The Scoti, located right above Emma’s. “I’m not closing. I’m staying right here.” Moving on Earthly Paradise, a Main Street institution, will pick up its bags of coffee, its canisters of tea and its comfortable ambiance and relocate to a building on South Fifth Street. The building there formerly housed the Purple Plum, a store which advertises that it sells “primitives and accessories.” For its part, The Purple Plum is moving to a new location on Main Street across from the post office. That store is scheduled to be open within a month, while the Earthly Paradise will be presenting its steaming java as soon as the building can be set up for a coffee house, according to a spokesperson. Sarah Belle’s, located at the comer of Main and Fifth streets has signs in the store that say, “After nine-and-one-half years, it’s time to say goodbye,” but that doesn’t necessarily mean that the store is closing. “Well, we are downsizing for sure and we’re looking for tenants for part of the building,” said Joyce Hall, owner of Sarah Belle’s. “If we can find tenants, we’ll stay in the building also.” Hall wasn’t certain that there were tenants out there right now. “Old Tbwn Warrenton does not look like an inviting place for people starting out in busi Memories From Page B1 Volkert?” Volkert nodded. “Why, I’m Bobby Rutherford from Rappahannock.” “We were in high school together,” Volkert says. “That was the Rappahannock connection. He told me to beat it. I beat it and went back to my mother’s and had a nice time.” The Army taught him how to operate a movie camera, which became his life’s work. In the days when he was starting out, his future wife Gisela was a ski “bunny” and a German national working and skiing in Utah at the prestigious Alta Lodge, where the Army sent Volkert to film a documentary. Soon after they met, they fell in love. They were married in Brooklyn, the day after the Army released him from service. Says Gisela, “I was so romantic, and we got in a line at the justice of the peace’s office, and when we got to the front, tears in my eyes, the man said; ‘That will be two dollars. Next in line!’ And like that, we were married.” She followed her new husband, who was hired by CBS, to Vietnam and around the world over the next 30 years. When he went back to his “Uncle’s” farm, the house was just as he had remembered it, and music was playing on a radio but no one was there. “It was eerie,” he says. “As if nothing had changed.

For us, the word is that we’re making big changes.” Anne-Marie Walsh, executive director of the Partnership for Warrenton tried to put matters into perspective. “I count 60 retail businesses in a small downtown, which is considerable,” Walsh said. “Two retailers went over one million dollars in sales last year, and two were so successful after a year or so that they opened new branches in other towns.” Birds From Page B1 does not migrate. The mockingbird is sometimes aggressive with other birds that enter its territory. According to The Sibley Guide to Bird Life and Behavior, it also uses wingflashing display (showing its white wing-patches) when advising others of its territory. This device is also used to scare insects out of hiding. The mockingbird feeds on the ground looking for insects and fruit, their primary food sources. This bird does well here in the winter months living off the multi-flora rose hips growing so abundantly in our fence rows. The mockingbird sings well into the evening, one of the few songbirds that sings after dark. He begins again about an hour before sun up. The brown thrasher is a large, quiet, secretive bird that lives in dense, shrubby, second growth vegetation and tangled thickets. This large bird is not seen as much, but its rusty brown coloration and long tail are key identifiers. Sibley says that the brown thrasher is given its name because it apparently thrashes the ground with its wings to stir up insects for its diet. Its vocabulary is not as extensive, varied or rhythmic as the catbird or mockingbird, but its music is rich and soft. The gray catbird, common here on Long Mountain Road, sings and talks the entire summer. They, too, like tangled and dense undercover for nesting. They know us well for our blueberry bushes, mulberry trees, chokecherries, wild cherries, and virburnams. Sometimes they do “meow” like a cat, but mostly they issue a constant stream of melodious sound. Fifteen years ago we had no catbirds here on our property; now with massed shrubs and brushy overgrown areas, thick with many berry food sources, we have many nesting pairs. The gray catbird is classified as a neo-tropical migrant, spending its winter mainly in Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. I sometimes imagine what our countryside would be like, without any bird music that we take so much for granted. It would seem quite empty and still. So the next time you hear a catbird, mockingbird, or brown thrasher, stop and listen for its truly remarkable range of mimicking melodies.
