by Samantha Weaver

Cookie Jar Q: I have a Liberty Bell cookie jar that is marked with the dates 1776-1976, so I assume it was made to commemorate our country’s bicentennial. Is this something worth keeping or passing along to my great-grandchildren? -- Ruth, Barre, Vt. A: I think you are probably correct that your cookie jar was manufactured to observe the 200th anniversary of the United States. Although there are a few collectors of bicentennial items, it will take a little more time before many of the items are all that much in demand. I have spotted plates, cups, posters and, yes, cookie jars at antiques malls and in shops, but prices do not seem to be increasing all that much. My advice is to keep your cookie jar, since it will probably be more valuable in the future.

How much, I can’t begin to guess.

••• Q: I have a three-speed Capitol phonograph that my mother purchased for me 60 years ago when I was a teenager. Capitol only made a few, and mine still is in working order and in excellent condition. How much is it worth? -- Aileen, Howell, Mich. continued on page 6

• It was French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre who made the following sage observation: “Three o’clock is always too late or too early for anything you want to do.”

• Those who study such things say that of all teenagers who wear braces, at least 60 percent have matched the rubber bands on their brackets to their outfits.

• Mary Todd Lincoln’s half-sister, Emily Todd, was married to Confederate Gen. Benjamin Helm. When her husband died in 1863, Emily crossed Union lines to visit her sister in the White House. Newspapers in the North created a furor over incident, speculating that the general’s widow could be a spy. After taking an oath of loyalty to the Union, Emily Helm was granted amnesty.

• John Lennon appeared on the first cover of Rolling Stone magazine.

• Do you go to action movies just to see the car chases? Here’s a real-life doozy for you: In 2002, after a bank robbery in Wrestedt, Germany, the culprits led law-enforcement officials on a 620-mile chase through several countries. After two days, the criminals were finally apprehended in Rivne, Ukraine.

• The original Mickey and Minnie Mouse were voiced

by Wayne Allwine and Russi Taylor. The human pair also were married in real life.

• If you’re like 37 percent of Americans, you feel a sense of satisfaction when you finish vacuuming. If you’re like the rest of us, you just hope the kids wait a few hours before spilling cereal on the carpet again.

• According to historians, Roman emperor Caligula once declared war on Neptune, the god of the sea. After his soldiers ran into the ocean and stabbed at the water, Caligula declared victory and ordered the men to collect seashells as war trophies. © 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

• On Aug. 16, 1920, Cleveland Indians shortstop Ray Chapman is struck in the temple by a ball pitched by Carl Mays of the New York Yankees. He died 12 hours later. After Chapman’s injury, it was mandated that scuffed or discolored balls be replaced with new white ones, making them easier to see.

• On Aug. 17, 1933, New York Yankees first baseman Lou Gehrig plays in his 1,308th consecutive game, breaking former Yankee Everett Scott’s record for consecutive games played. Gehrig would go on to play in 2,130 games in a row, setting a record that would stand for over half a century.

• On Aug. 12, 1953, less than a year after the United States tested its first hydrogen bomb, the Soviets detonate a 400-kiloton device in Kazakhstan.

Known as the “Layer Cake,” the bomb was fueled by layers of uranium and lithium deuteride, a hydrogen isotope.

• On Aug. 15, 1969, the Woodstock Music Festival opens on a patch of farmland in White Lake, New York. By the time the gates opened, more than 400,000 people were clamoring to get in. Those without tickets simply walked through gaps in the fences, and the organizers were eventually forced to make the event free of charge.

Adaptive Sports Get VA Grant

The Department of Veterans Affairs is putting up $8 million for grants to providers of adaptive sports opportunities for disabled veterans and members of the armed forces.

A lot goes into providing events and opportunities: training, supplies, coaches, equipment, recreation therapists, program development and more, right in the veteran’s community. For more advanced athletes, there are the Paralympic and adaptive sport programs on regional and national levels. The grant money will be very welcome and might even result in additional programs being created across the country. (In addition, when training for the Paralympics, there’s a monthly training allowance.)

A few examples of upcoming events: Summer Sports Clinic in San Diego, Sept. 7- 12; Tee Tournament in Iowa City, Iowa,

Clear Lake Museum Open Mondays 1-3 p.m. (June, July, Aug.)

If you wonder if one of the adaptive sports programs is for you (or someone you know), go to the website and click around.

Look at the Mission Re-Defined video. (Warning: There is a 3-second IED explosion at the 25-second mark on the video.

It passes quickly.)

To find ongoing activities and sports clubs near you, click on Search by Location and put in your ZIP code. (Don’t search by your state because I found at least one that was misfiled.) You’ll see a list of clubs along with contact information, including phone and email. Click on each entry to see which activities are offered and which disability groups are supported.

The variety of available activities is wide ranging: paddle sports, basketball, shooting, wheelchair tennis, rugby, water skiing, cross-country skiing and much more. There’s something for everyone.

Collecting - continued from page 1

A: I spoke to several collectors, and they seem to agree that your phonograph would sell in the $75-$150 range. In your letter you also listed several other items, including dishes and guitars. Let me state again that in this column I do not make appraisals and take only one question at a time.

••• Q: I have an original edition of the Stars & Stripes newspaper announcing the end of World War II. I would like to know what it is worth. -- Estelle, Sun City, Ariz.

A: Timothy Hughes is one of the leading newspaper dealers in this country and has bought, sold and appraised vintage publications for more than 30 years. His contact information is P.O. Box 3636, Williamsport, PA 17701; info@rarenewspapers.com; and 570-326-1045. Check out his website at www.rarenewspapers.com.

••• Q: I have an Elks Jim Beam decanter from 1968. What do you think it is worth? -- Charlie, Hobbs, N.M. A: I found the decanter on eBay. It sold at auction for $12, which is probably close to what it is actually worth.

Did you know there is a species of antelope capable of jumping higher then the average house due to its powerful hind legs, and, the fact that the average house can't jump?

It may sound corny, but how much do you really know about corn. Some of these facts may surprise you: • Corn is native to the Western Hemisphere • Corn outside North America, Australia, and New Zealand

means any cereal crop. Maize is a more formal and internationally recognized name for corn • The word corn is an English word used to describe any type of grain, but using it most people are referring to maize.

• Maize is an Indian word meaning “sacred mother,” or “giver of life.”
