lags and their history have always been part of Vane Scott’s life. His father, Vane Scott, Jr, actually began telling the story of the American flag back in 1972. By that time, young Vane’s father and mother had co-founded their own flag business, Colonial Flag Company, which became a division of Annin Flagmakers, the largest flag company in the world. Vane III has a rich family heritage in the Newcomerstown area. His ancestors, the Mulvanes, were the first white settlers in the area. Their Masonic tradition rings strong as his son makes the fifth generation of the family that has been part of the Masons. When Vane speaks of his family, you can hear how much he admires their legacy. After high school, Vane served in the Navy on two destroyers. When he returned home, it seemed only natural to work in the Coshocton flag company. Eventually, he became their plant manager. His dad encouraged him to learn the story of the flag so he could continue telling it to the next generation.
They even practiced a couple times at the kitchen table when his dad was very ill. For relaxation Vane and wife, Sue, enjoy a backroad motorcycle ride. On a ride some two years after he lost his dad, Vane began repeating the flag story in his mind as they rode along. When they took a break, he told Sue, “I need to tell Dad’s Flag Story.” Soon thereafter, he began sharing the story of our flag’s origin. The story, “The Many Faces of Old Glory”, tells how our flag was developed. It begins with the early flag of England and progresses through our present flag. The story’s purpose is to make people understand why we love this country so much. Children, especially, need to understand our rich heritage, as they are our future. While it’s not possible to give you his entire flag story here, it’s not a boring history lesson. You can be assured there’s a bit of humor thrown in throughout. There are over twenty flags included in the show and some are quite unique. He still uses the flags his dad folded all those years ago. Of special interest was the fact that when Congress

LOCAL FEATURE enacted the First Flag Resolution in 1777, it said: “Resolved the flag of the United States shall be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; and the Union be thirteen stars white in a blue field, representing a new constellation.” Every seamstress designed it in a different way. No two flags were alike. That’s where Vane got the title, “The Many Faces of Old Glory”. At first, they added a stripe and a star to the flag for each new state. But you can see that would be very cumbersome. So it was decided to maintain thirteen stripes to represent the original thirteen colonies, and then add a star for each state. Out present flag has been in place with fifty stars since 1960. A special performance of this show was held at Patriot Plaza in Sarasota, Florida where Vane presented the flag history to 2000 people. Here the background music was provided by a live symphony orchestra, Sarasota Pops Orchestra. This flag show travels the country. Today he uses a recording of the Tuscarawas Symphonic Orchestra as background for his talk. That local connection also appears on his DVD of the show.

great way to introduce your young family members to the history of our country through the story of the flag. This dynamic story continues to raise patriotism to the end, when Vane joins a recording of his dad singing, “The Star Spangled Banner”. Audiences are drawn to their feet as their voices are raised in singing our national anthem. His parents would be so proud of the story Vane is carrying on as his presentations are outstanding. While Vane enjoys his flag story presentations, he’’s not idle the rest of the time. Right now he is president of

the Newcomerstown Historical Society, where tour buses are visiting their Olde Main Street Museum on a regular basis. He also serves as commander of the National Honor Guard, where they present at around thirty funerals a year. They also participate in several parades and serve as color guard for many school events. Vane would like to perform more often for large groups all over the country as his dad did before him. This program should be a must see for all students to raise their awareness of our country’s history through the story of the flag. As one man said, “It’s history within history.” We may be born in America, but to be an American is quite another thing. After seeing “The Many Faces of Old Glory” you’ll leave a better and prouder American.

orgetfulness can affect anyone. For example, few, if any, adults can say they have not experienced moments when they could not find their keys. And once the keys are found, people move on without giving much thought to why they did not immediately remember where they left their keys. Isolated incidents where people cannot recall where they placed their car keys or other minor bouts with forgetfulness do not occur by accident. In fact, the Harvard Medical School notes that they are likely byproducts of age-related changes in thinking skills. When people reach their 50s, chemical and structural changes in the brain may begin to occur, and these changes can affect a person’s ability to process memories. Father Time may be a formidable foe, but people can take steps to give their memories a boost as they get older.
PEOPLE ARE MORE LIKELY TO REMEMBER SOMETHING THEY READ, SUCH AS A NOTE OR A LIST, THAN SOMETHING THEY’RE SIMPLY TOLD.

CAR TIPS
How Can Drivers Stay Safe in
Bright Conditions Spring is here and Summer is approaching, but with those sunny days come glaring driving conditions. Here are some tips on how to beat the glare.
W
eather often contributes to motor vehicle accidents. Snow, rain and other factors that compromise drivers’ vision can make driving hazardous, but there’s a dark side to sunny skies as well. Glare from the sun can compromise drivers’ vision and lead to driving mishaps, regardless of drivers’ experience or skill level. The sun can pack a powerful punch any time during the day, but can be especially hazardous in the early morning sunrise and late-afternoon sunset. A 2017 study published in the journal Medicine titled, “Life-threatening motor vehicle crashes in bright sunlight” looked at the risks posed by bright sunlight. Researchers found that the risk of a life-threatening crash was 16 percent higher during bright sunlight than during normal weather. Researchers concluded that bright sunlight may create visual illusions that lead to driver error, including poor distance judgement. Plentiful sunlight is often a hallmark of spring and summer, but sun-blindness is a real concern for drivers.As

anyone who has turned into blazing sun only to discover their windshield has been rendered opaque by sun glare can attest, driving on sunny days can be challenging. Unfortunately, the sun might create substantial glare during rush hour, making driving during these times more dangerous and accidents more likely. While there might be no way to prevent glare, drivers can take steps to make driving safer during times of day when glare is prevalent. • Make sure the windshield is clean. Water marks, dead insects, cracks, and road grime can make it even harder to see out of the windshield when the sun is blazing. Clean windshields regularly, and don’t wait until you’re head-on into the sun to engage the windshield washer spray. Doing so may only further compromise visibility. • Observe speed limits. When glare is present, slow down and keep more space between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. If someone in front of you needs to brake suddenly, the greater distance between vehicles can give you more time to react and avoid accidents. • Change your route. Try changing your commute so you’re not driving head-on into eastern sun in the morning and western sun in the afternoon. • Invest in new sunglasses. Special lenses that mitigate glare, UV rays and blue light can make it easier for drivers to handle glare when behind the wheel. • Make sure the visor is functioning. Sun visors are there for a reason. Use it to the best of your ability, angling as needed. • Pull over. If the glare is especially bad, Plymouth Rock Assurance suggests playing it safe and pulling over until the sun rises or sets. You also may want to change your driving time to avoid the glare. Motor vehicle accidents can happen on bright, sunny days. Glare can compromise drivers’ visibility, and drivers may need to take steps to protect their vision on sunny days.
Researchers found that the risk of a lifethreatening crash was 16 percent higher during bright sunlight than during normal weather.
What to do when a tire blows out while driving
M
any frightening scenarios can unfold while driving. Inclement weather can affect visibility and the safety of roads, while distracted driving can put anyone on the road in harm’s way. One situation that can suddenly turn a Sunday drive into something scary is a blown out tire. No drivers or vehicles are immune to blown out tires. But savvy drivers who know what to do in such situations can greatly reduce their risk of a blown out tire turning into something far worse. Recognizing a blown out tire The movies might make blown out tires seem as though drivers suddenly find themselves in wholly uncontrollable situations. But blown out tires won’t immediately send cars into the nearest roadside ditch. When a tire blows, the vehicle will immediately slow down and then begin pulling to the right or left, depending on which side of the car suffered the blowout. The automotive retailer Pep Boys notes that, if a front tire blows out, drivers will feel the force in their steering wheels, while a rear tire blowout will be felt more in the seat and/or body of the vehicle. Driving through a blowout Plenty of drivers have safely navigated their way through tire blowouts. When such a situation arises, drivers should avoid slamming on their brakes, instead allowing their vehicles to gradually decelerate, making sure to turn on their emergency flashing lights once they are certain they have control of the vehicle. As the vehicle slows down, pull to the side of the road, calling for help if necessary. When on the side of the road Drivers who do not have a spare tire or cannot change the tire themselves should wait patiently for assistance to arrive after they have called for help. Drivers who can change their tires should place reflective cones or triangles behind their vehicles before they begin working. Such devices warn oncoming drivers of stranded vehicles. If replacing the tire with a donut, remember that such replacement tires are not designed to travel long distances and will need to be replaced shortly after they are put on the vehicle, ensuring vehicles operate as efficiently as possible.

GUERNSEY COUNTY’S
ROCK STAR ROAD CUT “ To t h e g e o l o g i s t, t h e s e ro c k ex p o s u re s represent an exciting chronicle of geologic events in eastern Ohio.” — from the preface to a 1993 guide to I-77 road cut geology published by the Ohio Depar tment of Natural Resource
S
ometime after I got my driver’s license in the early 1970s, I began to notice it — a peculiar-looking rock pattern in the west wall of a quarter-mile-long I-77 road cut a couple of miles north of Cambridge. A midcut mass of sandstone appears to swell and then taper off to Story by RICK BOOTH nothing. Above it, a thin coal seam gradually dips and rises like a wave. Below and above them both, the western wall is completed by shale. High on the bank, fossils of marine snails populate the rocks. Since most road cuts in this vicinity reveal rather standard horizontal layers of rock pancaked on top of one another without unusual distinguishing features, this cut stood out as different. When I took a geology course in
college, my interest in the road cut only increased. Twenty-five years ago, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources actually put out a geological guide to the I-77 road cuts, all the way from Marietta to Cleveland. Sure enough, it describes the cut, located between mile markers 49 and 50, as one of the most interesting features to be seen in a northsouth ride across the state. What’s more, it explains how the peculiar rock patterns relate to the entire geologic history of our area. What follows is a quick summary. It all got started when Africa smashed into North America about 335 million years ago. The ancient great super-continent, Pangea, is believed to have formed about that time, as nearly all the land masses of our planet butted together by a
Guernsey County’s “Rock Star” I-77 road cut.
Africa and America were once joined in Pangea.

process of inches-per-year continental drift. The result of the continental collision was the raising of the Appalachian Mountain chain roughly parallel to today’s East Coast. At the time, mountains in what is today Pennsylvania may have jutted as high as Mount Everest. About 160 million years after the great continental collision, Africa drifted east and the Atlantic Ocean opened up. The Appalachian Mountains were, by then, eroding from their original high, angular, Himalayan-style majesty into the lower, more subdued, rounded look of the Appalachians we know today.
mountains of Pennsylvania and West Virginia to our east. The effect of the continental smash-up in the middle of the Appalachian Mountains was a warping and mangling of what had once been flat land. Nowhere is this more graphically evident than in the Interstate 68 road cut through Sideling Hill mountain near Hancock, Maryland. There the cut reveals the folding of the land that built the mountains. Yet here in Ohio, it is much more common to find level strata of rocks all the way across long road cuts, showing no evidence of buckling. In fact, the buckled part of Appalachian land is almost entirely east of the Ohio River. Where we are, the strata revealed by road cuts are generally flat because of the gentle laying down of sediment on the shallow sea floor. The layers haven’t been bent or twisted in the last 300 million years or so. So where do our hills come from? ROCK STAR ROAD CUT continues on pg 18

To the west of the Appalachians, most of Ohio was initially under water in a shallow sea. As the mountains to the east eroded, streams and rivers washed their sediment into the not-so-deep waters that later became Ohio. Vast river deltas like the Nile’s or the Amazon’s stretched into the “Ohio sea” and gradually built it up with sediment. Indeed, most of what we walk on in Eastern Ohio today is just ancient sedimentary runoff from the

peculiarities of this cut show evidence of stream and swamp activity in one of the massive delta regions carrying water out of the mountains. At or near sea level, the delta’s meandering channels wrote the exceptions to the level strata rules. That’s what geologists believe happened at this cut. One of the most telling features of the road cut is a sliver of sandstone, tapered to nothing at its left and right ends, surrounded by shale and coal sediments. The best guess of geologists is that in the uneven channels of an ancient river delta, a meandering stream cut through a nearby levee-like barrier, and brought a sudden surge of sand into an area that hadn’t seen sand for a while. It filled in a depression in the channel. Streams settled down and gradually changed course, and the silting-up of the delta went back to normal. An unusual event in the delta may thus be behind the unusual sandstone wedge, shaped a lot like the cross-section of an
The hills of Southeastern Ohio come from a combination of two things: A dramatic uplift of the former seabed to form the high and dry Appalachian Plateau on which we live, and the effects of a bit over 200 million years of erosion. Forces deep in the earth’s crust for some reason pushed the old seabed upwards by hundreds to thousands of feet, with the greatest uplift occurring adjacent to the original mountain chain. The amount of uplift was great enough that gravity-powered streams had the force to carve out the valleys of Southeastern Ohio from the flat, old layers of the ancient seabed. The silt clouding the waters of Wills Creek today is actually second-generation erosion of particles that originally washed off mountains in states to our east. Most of the land in Guernsey County today was deposited 300 million years ago in what is today called part of the Conemaugh Group of the Pennsylvanian portion of the Carboniferous Period of geological history. Those were the days before dinosaurs when fern plants and dragonflies populated warm swamplands, as Ohio was then much closer to the equator. The unusual I-77 road cut north of Cambridge is a slight exception to the level seabed story. The

airplane wing. At the other end of the cut, another lone chunk of sandstone stands out, also likely put in place by a sudden surge of sandy sediment in the uneven context of lazy-flowing delta streams. Above the lower shale and sandstone sections of the road cut runs a thin black layer of coal. This is evidence of a period when the delta became a swamp, and decaying vegetation left its carbon footprint behind. The deep coal seams of Guernsey County, several feet thick, are evidence of much longer-running swamps that emerged for a time at or above sea level, only to be taken back beneath the sea for more sedimentary deposits to rain down above them. Between the sandstone outcroppings in the local
road cut, the thin coal seam sways slightly downward and then back up. It probably wasn’t laid down quite that way. The weight of overlying sediments may simply have been more successful at pushing down the seam in areas where it wasn’t supported by sandstone. Road cuts have been a wonderful, free gift to geologists, revealing for them what no amount of begging for academic grant money could ever achieve. Ohio’s layers of sedimentary rock and its coal beds were laid down before the age of the dinosaurs. So where, one might ask, can we find a local Brachiosaur or Tyrannosaurus Rex? Why aren’t people digging up dinosaur bones in their back yards around here? After all, the dinosaurs were here, weren’t they?! Well, yes and no. If you want to know where the dinosaurs were, just look up in the air a few hundred feet. They were here, no doubt, but they walked on the ground that ROCK STAR ROAD CUT continues on pg 20

ROCK STAR ROAD CUT continued from pg 19 was once above us. Their feet trod on even younger sedimentary deposits than those that remain here today. The dinosaurs walked, fought, lived, loved, and died in spaces above the land we know today. The uplifted Appalachian Plateau gave them little chance of finding a convenient perpetual swamp to leave their bones in. Surely there were swamps, but none that weren’t victims in time of gravity, running water, and the infinite patience of erosion to do what it will. The closest thing to a relic of the days of the dinosaurs which is with us still today may be Wills Creek. Its ancestral stream could likely be identified at the end of the age of the dinosaurs, some 65 million years ago, if not even at its beginning. River valleys just don’t move much over time. They can outlast even the mountains. And when the dinosaurs died, including the last of them at the final stroke of an asteroid, their bones lay on the ground. With the drip-drip-drip of water, it was Wills Creek that

hen summer rolls around, everyone has thoughts of outdoor activities. Whether you want to spend the day or a week, Salt Fork State Park, the largest state park in Ohio, holds a wide variety of activities that are sure to please the entire family. Many people in the area over the age of fifty will remember when this was farmland with Salt Fork Creek and many small streams running through it. In 1967, the earthen dam was completed and filling of the lake began. There are many choices for staying at the 3,000 acre lake for a few days. You can camp, rent a cabin, or stay at the beautiful Salt Fork Lodge. No matter what your choice, you will be surrounded by rolling hills and views of the lake. The campground sites all have electrical hook-ups with a heated shower house close by. A few sites even have water and sewer hook-up as well. However,
7 PHOTOS: 1 – Fishing can be a wonderful time for families to relax together; 2 – Salt Fork Lodge provides a great place for meetings or for spending the weekend; 3 – Golfers enjoy the beautiful 18th hole at the Salt Fork Golf Course in the rolling hills; 4 – Sugartree Marina is one of two marinas where boats can be left for the season; 5 – Cabins along the lake make for a relaxing getaway. Take your pick! 6 – This overlook near the dam is my Inspiration Point, where many stories are written; 7 – Their expansive beach has a handy concession stand, putt-putt golf and Nature Center.
if you would prefer a cabin along the lake, all are completely furnished with a screened-in porch, and even have kitchen utensils. Some prefer the comfort and convenience of the exquisite, stone Salt Fork Lodge, which is perfect for meetings or vacations. Indoor and outdoor swimming pools provide entertainment no matter the weather. Outside you’ll find a fantastic playground for the youngsters as well as tennis, volleyball, basketball and shuffleboard courts. Special activities are scheduled throughout the summer months to keep youngsters busy with nature lessons, face painting, crafts, archery and guided hikes. There’s no reason to be bored here! Just a half mile down the road from the Lodge is the entrance to their 18 hole championship golf course, which is a challenge in these southeastern Ohio hills. A golf cart is highly recommended! Deer frequent the course and have little fear of golfers

KENNEDY STONE HOUSE BUILT IN 1837. STONES USED WERE QUARRIED FROM THE HILLS NEARBY AND CRAFTED IN A MANNER THAT HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME. ORIGINAL COST OF THE HOME AT THAT TIME WAS $600. RECENTLY, A ROAD HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED TO THE HOUSE SO YOU CAN HIKE, DRIVE, OR EVEN ARRIVE BY BOAT. playing their game. Rates are very reasonable. No lake would be complete without a beach. Here the 2500 foot beach is one of the longest inland beaches in Ohio. When you want to take a break from swimming or playing in the water, take time to head to the concession stand, play miniature golf, or visit their Nature Center in the main bathhouse building. Two marinas, Salt Fork and Sugartree, provide a place to dock your boat for the season. If you prefer to bring your boat with you, there are ten easy access boat ramps. At Sugartree Marina, you can rent kayaks, canoes, waverunners or pontoons. There are so many ways to enjoy a day on the lake. Fishing is a popular item at Salt Fork Lake. It’s a place you see families with their children as they teach them to enjoy being out in nature. Sitting on the bank or going out on a boat both give fishing enjoyment. Fresh fish over a campfire always become a great memory and a tasty meal. Many people enjoy hiking one of their fourteen hiking trails from easy to moderate. One popular trail leads to Hosak’s Cave complete with waterfalls and wildflowers. Bigfoot is said to have been spotted in this area. Others actually bring their horses to the park and camp for the weekend so they can ride twenty miles of horse trails. It’s a quiet place to ride through the woods on well-marked trails. Many ride bicycles and motorcycles through the paved roads of the park. It’s quite safe with a maximum speed limit of 35 mph in most places.

Another longer trail leads to Kennedy Stone House built in 1837. Stones used were quarried from the hills nearby and crafted in a manner that has stood the test of time. Original cost of the home at that time was $600. Recently, a road has been constructed to the house so you can hike, drive, or even arrive by boat. The view from the dam in Morning Glory Area provides a great place to relax also. This is my Inspiration Point as often stories nearly write themselves while watching the waves hit the shore and seeing the boats bounce over the water. Salt Fork State Park provides a great place for family vacations as there are so many varied activities to keep all ages busy and happy. If you are lucky enough to live in the area, enjoy a day at the beach or a ride on the lake anytime. Pack a picnic and use one of their many shelters or picnic tables, or spread your blanket on the ground. It’s also the perfect place to relax and do absolutely nothing. Visit Salt Fork State Park to enjoy being surrounded by the beauties of nature.
