Book Review
by Wanda Brunstetter Reviewed by Amanda Nixon • AMISH HEARTLAND CONTRIBUTOR
In this Book Two of the Prairie State Friends series,”The Gift”, Brunstetter has taken some secondary characters from Book One and expanded on their story, to create a delightful tale! Leah Mast, a young Amish girl that has a special gift for reflexology, is busy helping others in her community feel relief from different ailments. She has always seen her special gift as a “gift from God”. Unfortunately not everyone thinks her talents are legit…some even see it as hocus pocus. One such thinker, Adam Beachy treats reflexology with contempt. He does not believe it is something that Amish should practice…his true reasoning behind his beliefs are not revealed until the end of the book, but keep the reader guessing along the way. Adam is a complicated character. He has a traumatic past that effects how he handles most individuals. After tragedy strikes, Adam is forced to care for his three small nieces. He is well in over his head with this task. Leah becomes quite helpful with tending to the young nieces.
Adam has always seen himself as a bachelor, but could marriage be in his future? Could Leah and Adam married, possibly be exactly what God had in mind? Adam must decide if he is willing to have a marriage of convenience or risk facing his past to discover a life of love. I truly enjoyed this second installment. Brunstetter has set it up nicely for a third story. I look forward to the next one!

Josiah for President: Leaves You Singing for Joy Story & Photos by Emily Rumes AMISH HEARTLAND CONTRIBUTOR
For an evening of melodies and traditional values in Ohio’s Amish Country, the Dutch Hospitality family of restaurants, shops and inns is bringing entertainment for the whole family to Sugarcreek. Josiah for President, now playing at the Ohio Star Theater, will make you sing for joy. The musical Josiah for President is based on the novel by Martha Bolton (who also wrote the play). Songs were written by Wally Nason. The show leads off with the most heavily choreographed number, “Big White House.” There’s an energy to this first number which is difficult to carry out through the rest of the show. The mood and tone shift significantly in the second half making the first half seem all the more jovial by comparison. Josiah for President tells the tale of former Congressman Mark Stedman preparing to bow out of his presidential campaign, when he meets up with Josiah Stoltzfus, an Amish farmer from Pennsylvania. Stedman decides that the country would be better off under the leadership of someone like Stoltzfus and starts a campaign for Josiah as a write-in candidate. The part of news reporter Sara Rodriguez, played by Tanya De Leon, functions as a sort of Greek chorus throughout the show. De Leon commands the attention of the audience with her presence and her fantastic voice. She comments on the action taking place as the election plays out and on the status of her love life. (Will she meet someone before the end of the show or remain single forever?) “Leak It” (a parody of the song “Beat It” by
Michael Jackson) was a clear audience favorite. The song examines the strategy of leaking scandalous information about one’s political opponent to the press and performers take full advantage of the politicalized pop hit, making it fun for the crowd. One song that may get stuck in your head (regardless of whether you want it there) is “The Office.” You will find yourself humming it, singing it aloud as you drive to work and hearing it in your dreams as you sleep. This anthem for the elected will have you tapping your foot long after the stage lights have dimmed. The most touching moments occurred between the two main couples, Josiah and Elizabeth Stoltzfus and Mark and Cindy Stedman, with “It’s Just That Simple. The pairs duet and dance beautifully, bringing their parallel lives into focus and harmonizing the similarities between Amish and English marriages. Rocky Cooper is perfectly cast as Josiah Stoltzfus. He handles the Dutch accent well (everything is “goot” instead of “good”). along with a stand-out performance by Madeleine Drees as Karen Ledbetter, a Hillary Clinton-esque character, only more over-the-top. Much of the night’s humor is brought about through her snappy responses and dialogue and through another character named Bart, played by Bobby Hall, Jr. Josiah for President wants us to ask ourselves the question, can plain truth triumph over politics (can the two work together)? The Oval Office comes with both challenges and privileges and the musical examines the cost of living in honest freedom. The final number rings true with pride and takes the more somber tone of the second half into a grand conclusion. To plan your next trip to Amish Country and find more information on Dutch Valley restaurant and the musical, Josiah for President visit www. dhgroup.com. Tickets for the show may be purchased online at www.dhgroup.com/theater. Amish Heartland

Warther’s Museum Story & Photos by KATE MINNICH AMISH HEARTLAND WRITER / DESIGNER
W
arther’s Museum houses the whittlings of Ernest, “Mooney”, Warther, but the contents are beyond the common conception of whittling. Beautifully carved pieces of walnut, ivory, and ebony rest behind glass frames, showcasing Mooney’s self-taught talent. At the ripe old age of six, Mooney found a knife and began whittling. Mooney’s father had died and he was working as a cow herder in order to earn money for the family. This afforded long days with little to do but watch the cows eat. Carving on fence posts, trees and stray pieces of wood, Mooney perfected his whittling skills. Mooney grew up close to the railroad and always wished to work for them, but he didn’t have the required seventh grade education. A vast majority of the carvings depict trains or railroad events due to Mooney’s fascination with the industry. The whittlings turned into elaborate works of art; while Mooney considered this as a hobby, he eventually built a museum in order to display them. Before the museum’s creation, Mooney had been taking people through his home to see his work; his teenage children were less than enthusiastic about the practice. A small building was built as
6
October 2014
a museum in 1936 behind the family home and remained the museum until 1963. Mooney’s son, David spearheaded the building of the current Warther’s Museum (1963) in an effort to better showcase his father’s talent. Contents of the museum range from staffs, mechanical scenes, button art and pieces depicting the history of the railroad. The carvings depicting the history of the steam engine were produced between Mooney’s 28th and 62nd year of life. Once Mooney turned 72, be turned to carving Lincoln memorabilia and other important events in the railroad’s history. Before entering the exhibit portion of the museum, visitors can look inside Mooney’s original workshop. The workshop has been absorbed by the museum building but contains all the features and tools Mooney created and worked with during his days of carving. Beyond his whittlings, the workshop displays Mooney’s abstract thinking through the creation of storage space and seating. A shutter can be swung on its hinges to reveal small shelves cut into the wall and a bench can be unfolded from what visitors assume to be a cabinet door.
Upon entering the exhibits, visitors are met with photographs, photography equipment, mechanical scenes, and trains. Mooney’s mother was a photographer and her equipment as well as several photographs adorn a wall. The photographs depict Mooney, his siblings and his mother, providing an opportunity to view Mooney’s childhood. Large mechanical factory scenes are set up in the middle of the room that were carved and mechanized by Mooney. These fully functional pieces are run by spinning wheels and belts that can be viewed through a mirror set into the floor. There is a portion within this first exhibit room that has a complete train and a train in pieces. Individual pieces are tacked onto a board allowing onlookers to see all the little pieces that created the completed train. Mooney wanted people to see the logistics of the train. Each individual piece was hand carved by Mooney and then put together just as a life-sized train would be. The next room is a small auditorium that plays a 15-minute movie detailing Mooney’s experimenting with the creation of pliers. When Mooney was a child he met a hobo who gave him a small pair of wooden pliers, after examining them, Mooney found out how to carve the item out of one piece of wood. The experiments didn’t stop there. Thinking through the process, Mooney thought that he could also carve pliers into the handles of the original pliers and have them fold out. The project snowballed into the creation of a plier tree, its creation took Mooney two months and four days.
The second exhibit room is dedicated to what Mooney referred to as his “whittlings”.
Within the whittling room visitors can find trains and staffs. Scaled at one-half inch to a foot, the pieces are perfect scale models. The carvings within this room depict the history of the steam engine. One of the carvings present is a K3S Pacific type number 8661 which was the forty thousanth locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1914.
Ornate staffs within the exhibit are accompanied with photos of Mooney at the beginning, middle and end of his process. Carved from one piece of wood the detailed staffs have a Lincoln bust and a sphere contained behind wood bars. Human hands have never touched the sphere. Mooney used a knife with a long blade in order to reach through the bars and carve the sphere. Each staff took between 12 and 15 hours for Mooney to complete. Mooney’s library and source of reference can be found within the second exhibit room. Obtaining information from encyclopedias, engineering manuals and observations, Mooney’s models were found to be without fault by educated engineers. Beyond the books, Mooney would walk around and climb on the engines in order to learn how they worked or how the individual pieces looked. The Lincoln memorabilia and significant railroad events carvings can be found in the third exhibit. Throughout his life Mooney admired Abraham Lincoln, going so far as to paste a picture of him into his diary. Mooney’s carvings depicted many events surrounding Lincoln including his replica of the Lincoln Funeral Train complete with the Lincoln casket. Another fascinating piece within the collection is an ivory carving of the golden spike scene. The white of the ivory gives an eery glow to the two engines, and three present figures. Mooney’s whittling hobby turned into a way of life and a way of supporting his family. In 1902, Mooney started a company selling Amish Heartland
7
handcrafted kitchen cutlery. At the end of the museum tour visitors are taken to the knife factory where they are able to see how the knives are made. The business is still in full operation and family owned. After the carving museum was built in 1963, Mooney’s wife, Freida used the original museum as a workshop of her own. Buttons in all shapes, colors, and materials are organized into beautiful configurations she designed. The buttons were obtained from Swedish women who immigrated to America and wished to leave the Swedish tradition of button boxes behind. Freida collected the discarded button boxes and in the 50s and 60s began to design button art. One of the displays contains buttons all made by Goodyear. She collected and mounted over 72,000 buttons to masonite using
8
October 2014
sewing floss which then ran along the back. The workshop is open to visitors and is located outside the museum’s main building. The home of Mooney and Freida has been restored to its 1920’s configuration and is open to the public. Visitors can walk through the first floor of the home, viewing the kitchen, dining room, library and living room. The library contains Mooney’s workbench which sits just as it would have in 1920 when the winter was so bad that he moved his worktable into the home. The table in the dining room contains holes where Freida poked through the Masonite boards too far while creating her button art. In short the home displays the personality and culture of Mooney and his family providing an intimate look into the man behind the whittlings. Warther’s Museum offers guided tours throughout the day, the last one departing at 3:45. Tours last approximately one hour. Visitors can join a tour in less than 20 minutes no matter what time they arrive. Admission is $13 for adults, $5 for children under 17 with those six and under entering for free. Warther’s Museum is located at 331 Karl Avenue Dover, Ohio 44622. For more information visit www.warthers.com or call 330343-7513.

Customer Service
W
hen looking for a new piece of furniture the quality of the pieces are forefront in the mind. Making sure that the furniture is going to last and finding a way to get it home can cause untold heartaches. Choosing the right furniture stores will decrease the stress of buying furniture exponentially. The Furniture Heartland companies, have a high quality standard for all of their furniture, backing their products with warranties and offering home delivery options. “We treat people how they want to be treated” stated Erin Beachy of Troyer Furniture. Well informed employees can help guide your furniture buying experience. At the Furniture Heartland stores, employees offer advice on furniture selection based on the humidity of your location, help you pick out wood that is better suited for people with children or pets, can direct you toward the best fabric for your circumstances from their vast array of options and generally make recommendations keeping customer satisfaction as the primary goal. This includes going against their recommendations if that is what the customer truly wants. Beyond the smiles and eagerness to aid the customers, the Furniture Heartland stores offer life-time warranties for their hardwood furniture. “Every piece is built so it can go to the next generation” says Ernie Hershberger, of Homestead Furniture, expressing a feeling that is felt by all the owners of the Furniture Heartland stores. They believe that if the hardwood is prepared and put together correctly, the structure should last the customers a life-time. All manufacturer defects will be addressed by the furniture heartland stores. Fabric and cushions make homes feel relaxed and warm, the Furniture Heartland stores strive to maintain the quality of their upholstered items.

Among these four stores, a one-year warranty for the fabric portion of a structure is relatively standard. General wear and tear will be assessed and repaired by the stores, a couple offering repairs within the week. Home delivery is a feature available to all customers who visit any of the Furniture Heartland stores. Options vary from employee delivery service to outsourced freighting companies depending on the delivery location and company capacity. Green Acres Furniture send two employees with a truck to complete deliveries in the surrounding area while Walnut Creek Furniture has shipped their furniture as far as Australia. In most cases the customers of Furniture Heartland stores are able to pick a delivery day from a couple offered. The location of the delivery could limit the available delivery days. The customer can also opt to pick up their piece with their own truck. All home deliveries from the four furniture stores include set up of the piece; leaving it ready to use in your space. In some cases the furniture may come in a couple pieces to reduce the size or weight of components and assure that it will fit through the door. Customer service comes complete from the Furniture Heartland stores. Whether you are looking for a hardwood or an upholstered piece of furniture the four companies can offer warranties, informed employees, and home delivery. Once the experience is over the warranties guarantee your satisfaction for years to come. Leon Swartzentruber, of Green Acres Furniture, put the warranty guarantee best when he said “we try to take care of the problem before there is a problem”.

Recipes Herbed Pork Roast INGREDIENTS: *4- 5 lb. pork roast *olive oil *1 teaspoon dried thyme *1 teaspoon dried oregano *1 teaspoon dried rosemary *1 teaspoon salt *1 medium onion, sliced paper thin *2 tablespoons flour *1 tablespoon fennel or anise seed * fresh-ground pepper
BASTING LIQUID *2 tablespoons butter * 3/4 cup white wine *2 tablespoons flour *1 clove garlic, minced *1 cup chicken broth *1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
DIRECTIONS: Rub roast lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle with flour, herbs, salt and pepper. Pat lightly so herbs will adhere. Fasten onion slices over meat with toothpicks.

The Town Time Capsule Story & Photos by KATE MINNICH AMISH HEARTLAND WRITER / DESIGNER
S
ugarcreek was first founded by Swiss and German settlers who began immigrating to the area in the mid-1800s, bringing their skilled craftsmen and trades. The Swiss settlers put their cheese making knowledge to work and produced cheese from the milk supplied by the local farming community. This cheese has become a staple in the community and the Swiss presence has earned the town of Sugarcreek the nickname â&#x20AC;&#x153;Little Switzerland of Ohioâ&#x20AC;?. Ranson Andreas and a small committee began the Alpine Hills Museum in 1976 with the understanding that the history of the town needed to be preserved. The building currently housing the museum was donated in 1977 because more space was needed. Alpine Hills Museum is currently operated by director and curator, Kelly Kuhn and a volunteer based Board of Trustees. Acting as a time capsule, the building contains different components of the Sugarcreek and Shanesville history from 1814 to 1980s. All of the items within the museum have been donated by various people throughout the community. The donated pieces have come from people still living in the town as well as families who have moved; providing others the opportunity to learn their history. 26
October 2014
The Swiss and Amish culture, military pride and achievement, local clothing, and transportation are just a few topics that track the advancement of Sugarcreek into the present day. The Swiss heritage of the town is represented in several exhibits including a cheese making exhibit complete with large kettles, whisks and other equipment. The Amish community, many of whom can trace their roots back to Switzerland, are acknowledged through an exhibit displaying a kitchen that could be found in an Amish home. The exhibit allows visitors an inside glimpse of the Amish lifestyle. Among the artifacts displayed rest old means of transportation including an early photography cart and firefighting equipment. The early photography cart is one of the first same day photos options. The photographer would drive his cart to the photo shoot location, take the images and then take the camera to the back of his wagon. The floor of the cart contains a semi-circle cut out that allowed the
(Above) Photographerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wagon
photographer to stand behind a curtain securely fastened to the back of the cart. This created a dark room for the photographer and allowed for on-site printing of the photos. The early firefighting equipment consists of buckets and wheels attached to the hose spindle. A recording accompanies the exhibit, from which you learn that when a fire would be noticed a community member would run to gather the fire equipment. The buckets and hose would then be carted out to the fire and a line of people would be formed from the water source to the fire. Rounded buckets would then be filled and passed down the line to be thrown on the fire. The buckets were rounded so that they could not
be set down. The museum contains more than the everyday artifacts of the people; it also contains objects from history that are not well known. Housed in the basement is a wicker casket that was used by the town to collect the dead. Before the age of funeral homes, the bodies of the departed would be laid out at home, after the viewing, the coroner would come by with his wicker casket and take the body away. The body would be transferred from the wicker casket to one of pine or simply wrapped in cloth. Alpine Hills Museum should not be discounted because it is not located in a large city; this museum has many features worthy of a visit. Visitors will be submerged in the local culture, but not just the present culture. One large exhibit showcases Sugar Creek during the Victorian period, complete with hair art and clothing. Alpine Hills Museum is able to represent several periods of the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history that directly correlate to the history of the United States. World War I and II artifacts complete with uniforms, gas masks and other supplementary materials grace the halls of the museum. Among the war artifacts is a guest book of the Hermann Goering Aeronautical Institute from 1940 to 1945, used by Colonel Donald Putt for identification of key German Aeronautical scientists. The museum boasts five automated scenes that explain the history of the artifacts in front of you, the narration eliminates the need of large plaques or guided tours. One such exhibit displays The Budget and the equipment used to create the publication. As the visitor stands before the exhibit the spotlight shifts from two presses to the lead type displaying the past technology. When the narration begins, visitors will learn that The Budget is the local newspaper and
Amish Heartland

resource for the local area. The newspaper is recognized by the government as an official birth and death certificate, meaning that those who place a death or birth notice within the paper can then take the newspaper to the government office and file for a social security number. Three floors are not enough to contain the artifacts that the people of Sugar Creek have collected. Stored on the fourth floor and within Kelly’s office are more artifacts silently waiting their turn to the exhibit floors. This winter, Kelly plans to categorize everything at the museum and then begin to switch out the exhibits. Alpine Hills Museum has been visited by people from all over the world; in the past six months they have had visitors from 40 different countries and 48 states. Whether you are looking for the history of Sugarcreek, or oddities from history, Alpine Hills Museum promises to entertain. Alpine Hills Museum is located at 106 West Main Street, Sugarcreek, Ohio. This is also the location of the Sugarcreek information center which can be found at the front desk. The museum is open from April 1 until October 31, Monday- Saturday from 9 a.m to 4:30 p.m. Visitors are encouraged to move through the museum at their own pace. Admission is free, but donations are never declined and always appreciated. For more information call 888-609-7592.

Amish Travel
From The Driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Seat Story & Photos by Emily Rumes AMISH HEARTLAND CONTRIBUTOR

F
or the past two years, Bret Roebuck has been working as a driver for local Amish families. Each trip is different, but all the people he has worked for have given Bret a better understanding of the importance of family, religious beliefs and the common values that he shares with his Amish passengers. Bret was brought into the business by another
30
October 2014
driver and primarily works transporting people for weddings, family visits and occasionally for longer trips or family vacations. As more young couples move out west to newer Amish communities, in places like Idaho and Montana, families require drivers to take them out for a visit. Bret has been to Tennessee, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, California, Nova Scotia, Florida, the
Smoky Mountains, Niagara Falls and the Carolinas. Many trips start before dawn, with groups needing to get out on the road as early as 1:30 or 2:00 a.m. “I’ve seen so many beautiful sunrises and sunsets,” said Bret, “Getting to see the country with my wife Suzanne, being able to bring her along for some of the trips has been great.” There is a camaraderie and mutual respect among those that drive the Amish. Drivers will give a wave when they see each other out on the road and may get together and chat if they are at the same stop. Drivers who primarily do shorter trips will often ask Bret about how the longer trips are planned. For longer trips, Bret will meet with the family ahead of time and give them brochures and information. He acts as a sort of travel guide for the journey. This is something that not all drivers will do and it makes his services unique. Once the group picks their destination Bret becomes a part of the trip as the driver. On some of the longer trips the driver may buy a meal for the family as a thank you gesture.

The maintenance of vehicles is the highest priority for Bret. He makes sure that the tires and brakes are all at their best. Nothing is left to chance out on the road. If something would break down during a trip it could take time to fix and if the van is in a remote area it may be difficult to get to a mechanic right away. Some of the most important things Amish passengers look for in a driver are safety and that the driver takes good care of their vehicle and keeps it clean. Bret provides curb to curb service and makes sure he keeps his daily schedule with him for each trip. A customer noted that Bret gets you where you need to go efficiently and keeps to his schedule so they could rely on his service. Each day usually starts with a cup of coffee. Bret makes sure he knows his schedule and has time to pick everyone up. He brings along a book to read and a black bag that holds all his daily necessities for the drive. The van will always have a first aid kit and emergency kit, a tool kit, address books and phone chargers for passengers to use. Younger people will often bring their smart phones and listen to music. Usually there is someone in the group who will have a phone on the trip in order to make calls or take calls from back home. Bret will often give the
“I take pride in the safety of the vehicle and the way I drive.”

passengers his own phone number to use in case someone needs to reach them while they are on the road. With the early mornings and late nights, Bret usually catches a nap while the family is visiting or at a wedding. He packs his own lunch and brings snacks, but often times, especially at weddings, the family will bring out food to share with the driver. “They always have traditional wedding chicken, that’s the main staple,” said Bret. “There are vegetables, real mashed potatoes and pies and they will always make sure you don’t go home hungry.” Another main purpose for the local trips is to pick up groceries, sometimes enough for weeks at a time. With a 6x10 enclosed trailer, perfect for keeping everything dry, the van is ideal for shopping trips no matter what the weather. Often the driver will also work in a stop at the bank or other errands that may be needed for his passengers because many of them are also business owners. The shorter day trips Bret takes locally are mainly to Charm, Farmerstown and New
32
October 2014
Bedford. Sunday mornings are usually taken up by groups and families heading to church. “I don’t take any chances,” said Bret. “I take pride in the safety of the vehicle and the way I drive.” One of the most meaningful trips for Bret was to Lancaster, Pennsylvania for a church meeting. There he enjoyed hearing what the members of the group had to share about their faith. They also sang songs and he felt even more of a connection to the passengers through their shared appreciation for music and their love of the Lord. “I get to see so much of the country,” added Bret. “I’ve caught Salmon at Lake Ontario in New York and one of the best things has been getting to see my son who lives in Colorado whenever we are in the area for a trip.” September, October and November will have longer trips for wedding season, mostly to Michigan, New York and Pennsylvania.
