Fees to rise at local golf course

By CAROL BROOKS Editor Attendance at the Feb. 21 Jamestown Town Council meeting was larger than normal. Those in attendance learned that there will be some changes at Jamestown Park Golf Course April 1.

“We’re recommending we increase our green fee rates to more of a competitive structure,” said Ross Sanderlin, head golf pro and clubhouse manager.

Weekday 18 hole green fee would increase by $2 to $20, with all other weekday rates remaining the same.

Weekend rates would increase by $4 to $27 for 18 holes. Fees for riding carts would increase by $2 during the week and $4 on weekends.

The fee for half day outing rentals on FridaySunday would be $4,600 and full day, $5,900. During the week, the charge would be per player.

“It would be close to what we would normally make on a weekend day,” Sanderlin said.

The new fee schedule should bring in approximately $4,800 more per month.

The Ragsdale YMCA’s grant progress report was very positive.

“Last year was a banner year for the YMCA,” said Kevin Bottomley, executive director of the Y. “For the first time since the Y opened, we broke even on operating expenses.”

The Town of Jamestown gave a grant of $30,000 to assist in capital expenses on the building.

Bottomley said $95,250 was raised to support the Y’s programs and services; $54,000 given out in direct financial aid; and $94,000 allotted to reduced fees and free programs. 2016 was the first year the Y offered aquatics programs for people with special needs and served 642 children and adults.

The Pinecroft-Sedgefield Fire Department and Guilford County Sheriff’s Office reports can be found in the March 8 Jamestown News.

In a budget amendment, the Council unanimously approved (re)purchase of the town’s first fire truck (manufactured in 1929) for $4,500. The town and Pinecroft-Sedgefield Fire Department will refurbish the vehicle to use in parades, children’s activities and more. It will be housed at the Jamestown Fire Station.

The Jamestown Volunteer Fire Department began in 1950. Councilmember Lynn Montgomery suggested investigating grant

opportunities for refurbishment.

In other business, the Council unanimously approved: • a special event permit for the Jamestown United Methodist 5K run/1-mile walk on April 29; • a special event permit for Homes for our Troops and Ruff Love Foster Care Dog Rescue for April 22 at Jamestown Park; • having the Town Clerk investigate a petition for voluntary contiguous annexation of property under development by Koury Corporation; • investigation of the possibility of changing the

zip code boundary of properties from 106-146 Penny Road to reflect the 27282 Jamestown zip code; and • set a public hearing date for the March 21 meeting to consider zoning of properties affected by the closing of an undeveloped portion of Camelot Drive.

The Town Council welcomed Katie McBride as the new deputy town clerk.

McBride is learning her duties and will assume the town clerk’s position after current Town Clerk Martha Wolfe retires the end of April.

A special budget meeting will be held March 20 at 6 p.m. to discuss needs for the 2017-18 town bud-

get.

The Town Council went into a closed session to discuss a real estate matter at 7:45 p.m., which lasted until 8:26 p.m. No action was taken when the regular session was resumed.

The next Town Council meeting will be March 21 at 6:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at Town Hall.

The public is invited to attend.

Council approves sealed minutes resolution

By CAROL BROOKS Editor

Can you hear a heartbeat?

The Jamestown Town Council has held an unprecedented number of closed sessions in recent months, nine in 2016 and four more in February of this year. Some were part of regular Council meetings, others were special sessions. Many of these meetings related to personnel matters, details of which are not made public, nor are real estate matters, lawsuits, attorneyclient privilege sessions or several other reasons. Since these proceedings contained sensitive material, the minutes from eight of the 2016 meetings were sealed.

Town Clerk Martha Wolfe said there had been only 14 incidents of sealed minutes since 2013, but there are some prior to that date.

“Sealing” does not mean actual binding up of minutes, just not allowing them to be available to the public. North Carolina General Statute 132-6 addresses inspection and examination of minutes.

“Once the minutes no longer need to be sealed and can be open to the public, the Council is to officially vote to unseal them, then (the minutes) are put in the public records and minute book,” Wolfe said.

Wolfe added there has been no written town policy – nor is there a North Carolina general statute – regarding when these records could be unsealed, but recommended the Town Council establish a policy at its Feb. 21 meeting.

After some discussion, the Council unanimously voted that every December the mayor, town manager, town attorney and town clerk would review all minutes that had been sealed to see if making them available to the public would no longer be detrimental to the purpose of the closed session. (N.C.G.S. 143-318.11) Wolfe said that all sealed minutes would be reviewed in December, but some could stay sealed and reviewed the following year(s). Some could stay sealed forever.

“If they were meeting to discuss litigation, and the case has been settled, there is no basis to keep them sealed,” said Amanda Martin, general council to the North Carolina Press Association in an email to the Jamestown News. “If, however, they were discussing an employee’s job performance, those might stay sealed forever under the personnel laws.”

Initially, all sealed minutes would be reviewed. Councilmember Georgia Nixon questioned having to go through a large See MINUTES, page A3

Flagpole could grace Jamestown Park entrance

By CAROL BROOKS Editor It looks like the longdiscussed flagpole at the entrance to Jamestown Park may soon become a reality.

The matter was first discussed at a Parks &

Recreation Advisory Committee meeting in August 2015. Committee members expressed hope that local civic groups would sponsor the flagpole.

It was discussed at several P&R meetings since then.

Minutes from the August 2015 meeting state, “(Charles) Dowdy said a

few years ago the Rotary Club talked about putting an American flag at the golf course. They would like to put it at the entrance to the Jamestown Park. The committee talked about lighting and solar lighting.”

Other committee members who were also members of civic organiza-

tions believed their groups would also help fund the project.

Steve Owen expressed that it is important for the Town to have the American flag at the entrance to the Park and that the project should be proposed to all civic groups to donate funds toward the flag and

lighting.

Town staff pursued the project and Recreation Supervisor Scott Coakley will present a final approval to the P&R Committee at the March 8 meeting.

If approved, the project will go before the Town See FLAGPOLE, page A3

Correction

Historian Mary Browning contacted the Jamestown News to clarify several points from the Feb. 22 story, “How the Mendenhall family helped the slaves.”

Browning writes, “First, George C. Mendenhall was disowned for marrying out of unity, not for owning slaves. Just the fact of marrying a non-Quaker by bond would have accomplished that.

“Second, he was not coerced by Delphina and her mother into agreeing to emancipate the slaves as a condition to the marriage. I am sure he knew as early as 1826 exactly how he was going to go about

the emancipation. He convinced Mrs. Wilson that he meant it. He was not dragging his heels.”

Shawn Rogers, director of the Mendenhall Homeplace also commented: “Eliza Dunn did not deed two slaves to the N.C. Manumission Society.

In 1824, she petitioned the court at Montgomery County for standing as a minor in order to free a slave named James. I also discovered that George C. Mendenhall’s efforts to free slaves began earlier than previously thought. In addition, the initial number of slaves owned by George and Eliza was higher than is often stated.”

History of the N.C. longrifle talk rescheduled

By CAROL BROOKS Editor A power outage on Sept. 6 of last year cut William Ivey’s discussion on longrifles short soon after it began. But the Historic Jamestown Society has arranged another program on March 7 from 7-8:30 p.m. at Jamestown United Methodist Church.

Those familiar with Jamestown history are well aware that the area was once the home of nearly 90 gunsmiths from 17951902. The group was so proficient that the “Jamestown Rifle” school of gunmaking was known across the United States in the 18th and 19th centuries.

William W. Ivey is one of the nation’s foremost experts on longrifles. He will explore the history of not only Jamestown rifles but also the eight other major “schools” of riflemaking.

A school is a group with similar decorative features and characteristics.

MINUTES

Ivey is the author of North Carolina Schools of Longrifles 1765-1865. The book is the result of 40 years of study. Ivey said the sheer beauty and artwork places them among the greatest of the early American decorative arts.

“The intent and purpose of this book is to compare some known North Carolina surviving longrifles and see their relationship to each other and to identify grouping with similar decorative features and elements,” Ivey states on his website. The book includes photos and descriptions of many of the Jamestown area gunsmiths, including Thaddeus Gardner, David Grose, Craft Jackson, William Lamb, H.C. Lamb, Henry Wright, Anderson Lamb, Jabez Stephen, Flethcher Merritt, Solomon H. Ward, Evan Johnson and Judd Franklin Ledbetter.

Longrifles got their name because the black powder used in them was thought to burn slowly, necessitating a longer barrel.

That was later proven false.

Most were 30-caliber, with a wooden stock. These were hunting rifles, providing necessities for families.

“Bill Ivey is an extremely knowledgeable collector of N.C. antiques and particularly N.C. longrifles,” said Jim Leonard, a member of the Historic Jamestown Society Board of Directors and an antique collector himself.

“I can guarantee his presentation will be interesting, informative and entertaining to anyone with even a slight interest in either the rifles (many of which were made in Jamestown) and/or Early American Decorative Arts.”

(Longrifle photos/Courtesy C. Michael Briggs)

This Jamestown rifle was made by John Ward who was living with William Lamb in the 1850 census while training to be a gunsmith.

“Theoretically, we are going to unseal a lot of them,” said Town Attorney Beth Koonce. “What we’re keeping sealed shouldn’t be much.”

“Basically you’re cleaning it up,” said Councilmember Billy Ragsdale. “After you clean it up, it will be less and less.”

“This is a good policy to have,” said Councilmember Lawrence Straughn.

It is hard to determine just what was discussed at these closed sessions, however, other than the announced “personnel matter,” “real estate matter,” etc.

In FIRST Steamworks, two adventure clubs from an era in which technology relied on steam power must prepare their airships for the ultimate long distance race. Each three-team alliance scores points and prepares to take flight by building steam pressure, gathering materials to start the rotors, and boarding robots onto their airships.

The adventurer club with the highest score at the end of the match is the best prepared for the race and wins.

FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a notfor-profit organization,

founded by inventor Dean Kamen, dedicated to inspiring an appreciation of science and technology in young people. The FIRST Robotics Competition is a program that challenges high-school students, working with professional mentors, to design and build a robot to contend in competitions that measure the effectiveness of each robot, the power of collaboration and the determination of students.

CHEERS AND JEERS LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Changes for Medicare beneficiaries should improve fraud protection Have you received phone calls from individuals asking for your Medicare number so they can send you a new Medicare card? This is a scam. Individuals from Medicare will never call to ask you this information.

Medicare has this information at their fingertips.

Starting next year, a major change will be occurring in Medicare. In 2015, Congress passed the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act. This law requires the removal of the social security numbers from all Medicare cards

by April 2019. This new initiative is referred to as the Social Security Number Removal Initiative (SSNRI) A new randomly generated Medicare Beneficiary Identifier (MBI) will replace the social security number. When the initiative gets under way all Medicare beneficiaries will

by guest columnist Jeanie Schepisi be assigned a new MBI and be sent a new Medicare card.

The primary goal of the initiative is to decrease Medicare beneficiaries’ vulnerability to identity theft by removing the social security number from their Medicare cards and replacing it with a new Medicare MBI that does not contain any other personal information.

The Centers for Medi-

care and Medicaid Services (CMS), the agency that oversees Medicare, has established a transition period during which the Medicare number or MBI will be accepted from providers, beneficiaries, plans and others. CMS expects the transition period to run from April 2018 through Dec. 31, 2019. After the transition period only the MBI will be used.

Starting around April 2018, CMS will start mailing new Medicare cards.

There are approximately 60 million beneficiaries in Medicare. CMS plans to mail the cards in phases over a period of time.

Remember, as a beneficiary you can still use your current Medicare number during the transition period if it takes a while to receive your new Medicare card.

If a beneficiary is new to Medicare after April 2018

We’re buying an old fire truck?

To whom it may concern, I was at this past week’s Jamestown Town Council meeting and was a bit taken aback at the “opportunity” mentioned by the interim town manager to purchase the town’s old 1929 fire truck for $4,500 and refurbish it at a cost of up to $25,000. (Ed. note: See story on page 1.)

It seemed that our Town Council had very few questions and went along with spending our town’s money with very little thought about it, voting unanimously after only a couple cursory ques-

Some missing questions: • What are the ongoing costs, including insurance?

• How can we verify the $4,500 purchase price by the person who is selling it to us – or might this be a money-maker for the purchaser at the expense of the town?

MOMENTS IN TIME • On March 2, 1966, the Ford Motor Company celebrates the production of its 1 millionth Mustang, a white convertible. More than 400,000 Mustangs were sold in the first year, perhaps boosted by its appearance in the James

Anyone seeking to have a beneficiary pay money for the new card is a scammer. Be especially careful of anyone seeking to have access to your checking account to pay any fee for the new card. Beneficiaries are especially vulnerable if they are isolated, frail or may have cognitive loss.

Caregivers should be on

the alert for these kinds of scams.

The North Carolina Senior Medicare Patrol (NCSMP) Program is housed within Seniors’ Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) at the NC Department of Insurance.

NCSMP is a preventive educational program whose goal is to reduce Medicare error, fraud and abuse through coordinated efforts of educational and promotional activities. NCSMP is currently educating beneficiaries and caregivers at outreach events about the issuance of the new Medicare cards.

CMS will also be conducting intensive education and outreach to beneficiaries to help them prepare for this change.

If you receive any calls asking for your Medicare number, write down as

much information about the conversation including name, telephone numbers and any additional information and contact NCSMP at SHIIP by calling 855408-1212. Help us protect, detect and report Medicare fraud.

Senior Resources of Guilford is the local SHIIP Coordinating Site for Guilford County. They may be reached at 373-4816 or 884-4816. SHIIP Volunteer Counselors are available to meet with clients, at no cost, at Senior Resources in Greensboro (located in the Dorothy Bardolph Building) and at the Roy B. Culler Senior Center in High Point. We want to take the guesswork and worry from the person who is going on Medicare.

Fixing HB2 needs a good meal together Where are Ruby and Jack Hunt when we need them?

Somebody needs to sit our political leaders down and guide them into talking to each other about how to get our state out of the HB2 mess we have made for ourselves.

That is what former Cleveland County State Rep. Jack Hunt and his wife, Ruby, used to do in Raleigh. I admired their ability to get people of different views together at the same table for meals and fellowship.

Here is the way I described their magic meals in my new book, North Carolina’s Roadside Eateries.

“Jack and Ruby regularly invited their government friends for informal suppers of country ham, baked chicken, cornbread, biscuits with sourwood honey and molasses, and vegetables from her garden, including corn frozen minutes after it was picked the previous summer. There were always desserts of homemade cakes and pies. Of course, there was also the opportunity to make friends with governors, Supreme Court justices and legislative leaders.

“Once, when UNC President Dick Spangler and Gov. Jim Hunt were at loggerheads about the governor’s budget proposals for the university, they could hardly speak to each other until Jack invited them to breakfast with Ruby. Neither the governor nor the university president could say no to Ruby.

It only was after they sat

by guest columnist D.G. Martin down to Ruby’s cooking and warm spirit that they worked out a compromise.“ North Carolina has a history of people with hardline different views coming together informally to hear each other out, and working something out of situations that had seemed intractable.

It happened in Charlotte during the school desegregation turmoil when people at war with each other sat down and ate wonderful food together at the black-owned McDonald’s Cafeteria or at potluck meals organized by teacher Maggie Ray. People in Durham still celebrate the unlikely friendship that developed between Ku Klux Klan leader C.P. Ellis and black community leader Ann Atwater when they addressed community and school challenges in an informal setting. Ellis explained what happened this way, “I used to think that Ann Atwater was the meanest black woman I’d ever seen in my life.

But, you know, her and I got together one day for an hour or two and talked.

And she is trying to help her people like I’m trying to help my people.”

At last the governor and some legislators are proposing bills that attempt to craft workable solutions.

But each proposal has met only with critical resistance from those on both sides who are unwilling to consider compromises.

Summarizing his longer commentary on possible solutions to the HB2 situation, Chapel Hill attorney Patrick Oglesby writes, “No middle ground will satisfy everyone. Folks on both sides – call them hardliners – sincerely yearn for victory based on principle and morality, and despise symbolic defeat. But a principled return to ‘preexisting law and practice’ sows pardon where there is injury, and it relegates the non-problem of the wrong bathroom to old, tried and true trespassing law – and to the jury. We can ask our leaders to sit down together and assemble a package to make the fighting stop. As a Christian pastor put it: ‘We can live together as brothers or perish together as fools.’”

Oglesby’s quote about living together comes from Martin Luther King Jr. It calls out for good will and a willingness to put aside absolutism in order to find a good pragmatic, if imperfect, accommodation.

It reminds me of how the togetherness around Ruby and Jack’s table could foster a spirit of trust and willingness to compromise.

Where are they when we need them?

Jet-setting stylists open new salon in Jamestown

By JANE WHITEHORNE Staff Writer Bradley Tuggle and MaCray Huff are living the high life – literally. They spend quite a bit of time in the air, flying around the country – and the world – sharing their special talents as hairstylists.

But home is where the heart is and they are making a home at Bradley James Salon in Jamestown.

The salon, located at 4915 Piedmont Parkway, is serving as home base for these two in-demand stylists. They began serving clients there in January and plan a grand opening celebration later in March or early April.

“This is the area we want to be in, to be centrally located to take care of our clients,” said Tuggle. “We are definitely looking to bring that celebrity style to the Triad.”

He studied at Leon’s Beauty School and started his professional career in Greensboro. He began attending various hair shows, where he met Farouk Shami, founder of Farouk Systems Inc., a manufacturer of high-end professional hair care products including CHI and BioSilk.

“I was on stage at a small hair show when Farouk pulled me aside, took me for a ride in his limousine and said, ‘I want you to work with me’,” said Tuggle.

He began traveling the globe representing the company at hair and trade shows and styling celebrities’ hair. A few years ago, Tuggle began appearing on QVC as a representative of CHI Smart brand.

Although he enjoys the international travel, now more of his flight time will be between Greensboro and Philadelphia, where the televised home shopping network is located.

Tuggle and Huff met when both were doing hair shows and have worked together over the years since. They share the same work and style philosophy and partnering in the salon has been a good match for them.

“I want this place to blow up,” said Huff. “I want people to walk around and say McCray does my hair.”

Huff was working as a stylist in Greensboro when he packed up and moved to Chicago without any job prospects in the Windy City.

But it wasn’t long before Huff found a spot at AJ’s Salon, home of the reality

Unfortunately, that show was cancelled. However, the producers remembered Huff and invited him to appear in one episode of “L.A. Hair.” He ended up being in 10 episodes.

Now Huff is bi-coastal, regularly flying

between Los Angeles and Greensboro. As much as he loves the lifestyle, he is excited to return to home base near his family.

The creative duo wants a visit to the Bradley James Salon to be an experience, to feel a bit luxurious. They want to meet the needs and

desires of their clients, whether it’s a casual style for work or something over the top for a special occasion.

“If you want a different look, a new style, we have what you’re looking for,” said Tuggle.

To schedule an appoint-

ment, call 336-432-0111 for Bradley Tuggle and 336-508-5305 for MaCray Huff.

Celebrate Reading

By CAROL REED Jamestown Public Library Tomorrow is the birthday of “Read Across America.”

In 1988, the National Education Association established this special day that calls for every child in every community to celebrate reading on the birthday of Dr. Seuss, an author that every child knows from books, movies and toys.

Schools and communities plan special events in all parts of our country.

Guilford County Schools usually plans a special pizza evening in the four corners of our county. Two or three times one of these events was held in our library.

Theodor Seuss Geisel was born in 1904 in Massachussetts and died 87 years later in La Jolla, Calif.

In between those years, he was a writer, cartoonist, publisher and animator. His 60 children’s books sold over 600 million copies and were translated into more than 20 languages.

His best known titles were made into films, including How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, The Cat in the Hat, The Lorax, Horton Hears a Who and many more.

One of my favorites is Bartholomew and the Oobleck where the powerhungry king demands that something else, besides rain, sleet and snow, fall from the sky. When green

A love offering will be received at each gathering.

Note from Norma

Oobleck glues everything down, including the king to his throne, the story really gets sticky.

Probably Green Eggs and Ham is most quoted of his easy-to-read books.

“I will not eat them, SamI-Am.” Other famous children’s authors celebrate birthdays this week as well. Patricia MacLachlan is most famous for her Newbery winner and movie Sarah Plain and Tall, the story of a mail-order bride and her stepfamily on the prairie.

Through Grandpa’s Eyes is a picture book about a young boy learning to see the world differently from his blind grandfather.

Dav Pilkey, born in 1966, was told by his second grade teacher that he would never earn a living by doodling. He is the author of those very popular and often censored books Captain Underpants, as well as many picture books. My favorite is Hallo-Wiener, the tale of a dachshund puppy who saves the bully dogs while wearing a hot dog bun costume.

Mem Fox, born in 1946, wrote and illustrated Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes, which poetically shows how all babies, born in different places and different circumstances, are loved and similar. Tough Boris is a big, strong, mean pirate who only shows a

Remembering a patriot

By NORMA B. DENNIS Staff Writer “War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things.

The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feelings, which thinks that nothing is worth war, is much worse. A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing he cares about more than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.”

He believed the words to be true and they meant so much to him that the sign

accompanied him and his wife Alana wherever they moved.

On Feb. 19, 2017, America lost a great patriot when Gene entered into his eternal rest to enjoy the company of the Savior he served faithfully while on earth.

If anyone deserved rest, Gene did. He had lived through a war, returning home wounded. But with pride, he continued to serve his county in the military for 30 years. He also volunteered with the Southern Baptist Convention of Virginia (SBCV) Disaster Relief and the Baptist Global Response Team, helping others in times of crisis such as earthquakes, tornados and loss. Through all this, he had witnessed the unimaginable for most, but never let it make him bitter or uncaring.

As I listened to those who knew him well talk

about Gene at his graveside service, I realized how blessed my family was to have been included in his family. You see, he was my daughter-in-law’s father, but he was also our friend.

He participated in our family’s annual Cousin Camp for the past seven or eight years, showing by example the value of hard work and by words offering gentle guidance to teach a younger generation.

Gene is survived by his wife Alana, son and daughter-in-law Bryan and Bridget Cole and their children Riley, Kellan and Finley, all of Virginia; and by his daughter and sonin-law Shannon and Scott Dennis and their children Walker and Evelyn of Jamestown.

In their honor and in Gene’s memory, I offer a tribute to Gene West Cole: Oct. 1, 1942 – Feb. 19, 2017.

hands and knees in every room of your home and see how things look from a child’s point of view.”

Liquid laundry packets are just one example of products that can be convenient and often appealing to the eye, but can also be hazardous to children.

According to Safe Kids Worldwide, an average of one child a day is hospitalized or experiences ill effects as a result of liquid laundry packets.

To reduce the chances of injury, Mitchell recommends parents and caregivers follow these safety tips: Kitchen and Bathroom: • Keep medications, razor blades and cleaning supplies out of reach.

• Pick up any medications that might accidentally be dropped onto the floor. Pills can often look like candy to a small child and could be very dangerous if ingested.

• Unplug all hair dryers, curling irons or electric razors when not in use.

• When cleaning, never leave the bottles unattended if a small child is present.

Garage • Store gardening, automotive and lawn care tools safely away from children.

• Keep hazardous automotive, pool and gardening chemicals in a locked area.

• Place recycling containers containing glass or metal out of reach.

• If putting a hazardous chemical in a secondary container, such as a twoliter bottle, always label it and keep it away from children.

Laundry Room • Always keep bleaches, detergents and liquid laundry packets out of sight and reach.

• For homes that have a laundry chute, keep it locked with a childproof lock.

Even the most vigilant parent cannot keep a child completely safe at all times, so Mitchell recommends parents and caregivers learn CPR and keep the phone number for Poison Control handy. That number is 1-800-222-1222.

To further reduce the chance of injury in the home, Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center and Safe Kids Northwest Piedmont are partnering with Habitat for Humanity of Forsyth County to offer several free home safety workshops this year. Parents or caregivers who attend will receive a free home safety kit, which includes window latches and locks, window blind cord wind-ups, doorknob covers, toilet seat locks and a bathtub thermometer.

JMS Builders Club members set lofty goal for yearly project

By NORMA B. DENNIS Staff Writer The Jamestown Middle School Builders Club held a party in the cafeteria after school Feb. 23. But there were no refreshments or party games. It was a “Shoe Cutting Party” with the purpose of cutting shoe tops from jean fabric.

Each pair of shoes needs four pieces of the front and four of the back, two pieces for the heels and two plastic heel pieces, which are cut from plastic folders.

To begin the process, the legs of jeans are cut off and opened to lay flat. Using black markers and pattern pieces, also cut from plastic folders, the shoe tops are traced onto the fabric, carefully cut outside the lines, pinned together and packaged in lots of 10 into gallon bags.

“We are careful to match the material so each pair of shoes will match,” said Linda Magley, a new Builders Club teacher advisor.

The bags of shoe tops will be shipped to the Sole Hope organization in Uganda. There, they will be crafted by locals into shoes with rubber soles and distributed to children to keep their feet from becoming infested with jiggers.

Jiggers are parasitic fleas.

They burrow into bare feet and lay eggs, leading to more jiggers, more eggs and egg sacks. Left untreated, they cause intense pain and secondary infections, often resulting in amputations and paralysis.

When Drü and Asher Collie of North Carolina were considering adopting a child from Africa, Asher saw a video about jiggers that touched her heart. Although she tried to ignore it, she could not and realized closed-toe shoes could help solve the problem. Through trial and error she created a pattern that is now used at shoecutting parties nationwide and the couple began the Sole Hope project.

When the JMS Builders Club was looking for a project for the year, Magley, who works with longtime advisor Julie Galuski, suggested Sole Hope. She had started the project with her eighth grade reading class.

That group completed 10 pairs of shoe tops and collected $25 toward shipping and labor costs.

The Builders readily embraced the project, but wanted to open it to the entire student body. They collected 100 pairs of good, used jeans from students and staff and organized their first shoe cutting party last Thursday.

“This gives our community an opportunity to help people across the world,” said Mckenzie Wheeless, who along with Ruby Kemp is co-chairing the Builders project.

The Builders have set a

goal of 250 pairs of shoe tops and $2,500 for expenses ($10 for each pair). To raise funds for the project, members sold candygrams for Valentine’s Day, netting $230. On March 10, they also will host the annual Neon Fever Dance, at which they hope to raise at least another $1,500.

Students pay $5 to attend the afterschool dance that is led by a local deejay.

Snacks also will be available for sale to raise addition funds.

Before the Builders’ first shoe cutting party was over, 15 pairs of shoes were completed and ready to be shipped. Members plan to continue Shoe Cutting Parties throughout the year until their goal is reached.

Other schools are helping with the project as well. Students at Millis Road Elementary, where Wheeless’ brother attends, have engaged in a penny war and raised $1,600.

Matthews selected JES Teacher of the Year Cathy Matthews has been selected as the Jamestown Elementary School Teacher of the Year for 2017-18.

Being in education is her dream career. She believes that education empowers our citizens, forms leaders in our communities and builds great nations.

Matthews is a High Point native. Guilford County Schools served as the foundation for her education.

She feels that she is able to understand the complex diversity of our community. She is an alumnus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and has earned a B.S. in elementary education, a B.A. in psychology and a master of school administration, principal license.

Currently a third grade teacher at Jamestown Elementary School, Matthews also has taught kindergarten.

CATHY MATTHEWS She began her teaching career as a third grade teacher at Montlieu Academy of Technology.

After several years in the classroom, she served as a curriculum facilitator at Montlieu. In 2008, she came to Jamestown Elementary School to serve as the curriculum facilitator and to complete her principal internship.

Matthews’ goal is to strengthen the level of

academic rigor in subject areas, and to develop culturally relevant instruction and practices that will lead students to become college and career ready. She uses assessment data to plan instruction and reach the many academic levels of students. As an educator, she strives to be an advocate for students, teachers, parents and the community by working collaboratively with them to build a safe and effective learning environment.

“She is a valuable resource to students, parents, staff and the community,” said Principal Dwayne Jordan. “She is always willing to provide leadership and other valuable resources, not just for the success of her students but also for the success of all students at our school.

She demonstrates this through effective communication and collaboration with all stakeholders.”

When defeat comes, accept it as a signal that your plans are not sound, rebuild those plans and set sail once more toward your coveted goal.

own Shoe Cutting Party.

“I love when we can line up projects among several levels of schools,” John Gibbs, the Kiwanis advisor for the Jamestown Builders, said. “The students have done an excellent job beginning this project. I believe as they continue, it will take less time to cut out each set

of shoes and more will be accomplished.”

Ways to banish the graze

By LEANNE ELY Dinner Diva

My favorite is the liquid calorie tip. Did you know that you can save yourself over 30 pounds a year if you just give up your soda a day habit? But in a magazine I was reading recently, it said that if you gave up two sodas a day and your glass of juice (the whole fruit is better for you anyway) you will lose 44 pounds in one year.

That’s the kind of tip I like. See why drinking water is so much better?

Obviously, if you replace the juice and sodas with lemon meringue pie and a Snickers bars, the deal is off.

Here’s a great shape up tip that is easy to put into action: exercise during commercials. Get down on the floor and do a few

sit-ups or some push-ups or dance in place for the duration of the commercial break. It’s amazing what you can accomplish just during a commercial.

And here’s another good one. If you mindlessly graze on chips and pretzels and the like, replace them with some dill pickles. You’ll get the crunch and the salt without having to deal with the weight gain that comes from overeating the other stuff. As a matter of fact, if you eat 32 pickles in one sitting, you’ll only ingest 160 calories (not that you’ll want to eat 32 pickles in one sitting anytime soon, but you get what I mean).

Lastly, if you do want to eat chips or pretzels or something else like that, understand that they don’t have to be completely off limits. But be aware of por-

Somehow, we all have this notion that a little bit of grazing doesn’t count – until it shows up on our backsides and makes our pants hard to put on. Put your chips into a small, zipper topped bag - a serving size and be content with that. Otherwise, just buy individual servings that you’d throw in the kids’ lunches. They may cost more, but at least you won’t be paying for it personally – if you catch my drift.

Preschoolers’ imaginations take them on a trip to the zoo

By NORMA B. DENNIS Staff Writer The roar of a lion, trumpet of an elephant, caw of a parrot and chatter of monkeys filled the air in the fellowship hall of Jamestown Presbyterian Church on Feb 24. Tables were filled with stuffed animals of all shapes and sizes, all of which invited preschoolers to participate in the sights and sounds they might encounter on a visit to the zoo.

Name cards beside each group of animals brought a literary aspect to the event as children could connect the written words with what they were seeing.

“This is such a magical age for these children,” said Donna McLamb, one of the school’s teachers.

“Just to see their faces light up makes it worth the extra time it takes to set it all up and take it down. It is nice to get their imaginations going with a hands-on experience.”

The mock zoo visit was the second annual “trip to the zoo” offered to the church’s preschoolers.

Approximately 90 percent of the stuffed animals were ones McLamb has collected through the years in anticipation of such an event. Teachers and staff furnished the rest.

The weekly curriculum at Jamestown Presbyterian Preschool is based on themes and the one for Feb. 20-24 focused on the zoo and the letter Z. Students enjoyed making a zebra art craft, playing in a sensory bin filled with rocks and small animals, making Play-Doh zoo critters and eating zoo snacks.

Teachers talked about going to the zoo, taking care of the animals, what

one might see at the zoo and what the children wanted to see. Even the math centers and music and movement for the week were related to the zoo theme. The week culminated with Friday’s trip to the “zoo.”

The preschoolers brought money from home and each got to select a special toy at the zoo’s gift shop.

All the children at Friday’s preschool were able to participate in the experience and especially enjoyed the animals that moved and/or talked.

“He said he loved me,” one child exclaimed of the talking parrot.

McLamb’s class also got an extra treat. She and coteacher Courtney Watson provided medical kits to their students and the children enjoyed being zoo veterinarians to their favorite animals.

“I would like to see this activity continue,” McLamb said. “It will probably be even bigger next year.”

Representatives from Princeville Elementary picked up the school’s new books on Feb. 21, from the GCS offices on Washington Street.

“Library Media is a family, whether it’s in Guilford County or Edgecombe County,” says Jacqueline Pender-Jones, GCS district media specialist. “We saw a need in these counties to get books in the hands of children. We stepped up to the plate and produced phenomenal results.”

if you haven’t read the books. There’s been quite a lot of scholarship about the novels. Most of the research focuses on literary analysis and historical analogies, and understandably so; a work of fantasy doesn’t seem to lend itself to scientific analysis.

However, the Journal of Interdisciplinary Science Topics recently published an article titled, “Simply Walking into Mordor: How Much Lembas Would the Fellowship Have Needed?”

In it, Skye Rosetti and Krisho Manaharan make public their calculations of the caloric intake that would have been necessary for the Fellowship to walk 92 days to Mordor: precisely 1,780,214.59.

6. MUSIC: What bridge did Billie Joe jump off in Bobbie Gentry’s song

“Passengers” (PG-13) – On a luxurious spaceship traveling to a distant planet, scores of passengers rest in a 120-year-long hibernation. Then something makes Jim (Chris Pratt) wake up 90 years too early. With the certainty of dying alone, he selfishly wakes up another passenger, a beautiful writer named Aurora (Jennifer Lawrence). A complex dynamic forms, or starts to form, but then an outside threat takes priority and that other stuff gets smoothed over.

It’s an interesting concept for a sci-fi drama, and the ship seems on course for a while. However, like 2007’s sci-fi thriller “Sunshine” and the more recent “Interstellar,” there is a great building of steam,

Long Tall Sally found that 40 percent of American women own shoes that they know they can’t walk in, but wear them anyway.

At the first table, declarcial language of Brazil? er was certain that West had the king of clubs, since it would have made no sense for him to take the ace on the first club lead rather than allow East the chance to win and return a third diamond. Afraid – correctly as it turned out – that West could win the next club lead and cash two diamonds to defeat the contract, South saw no choice but to play the A-K-Q of hearts and hope for a 3-3 split.

and then a rogue wave in the third act nearly sinks the whole vessel.

“Fences” (PG-13) – Denzel Washington stars in and directs this adaptation of the play by August Wilson about a family’s struggle with bitterness and dreams cut short in 1950s Pittsburgh. Troy Maxson (Washington) is a sanitation worker who builds a fence in his backyard as he continues to build a barrier separating himself from his wife (Viola Davis) and two sons (Russell Hornsby and Jovan Adepo).

Washington and Davis received fantastic reviews for their part in the Broadway revival of the play, and that experience translates really well to the screen. As a director, it seems that Washington did everything to put the play onto the screen without jostling any of the pieces too much. It’s a working film that doesn’t try to re-

envision the play for a new medium, just to do right by it.

(Ed. note: Davis won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role.)

“Collateral Beauty” (PG-13) – Devastated by the loss of his daughter, Howard (Will Smith) goes into a tailspin and can no longer function. He’s out of his mind, writing letters to abstract concepts like Love, Death and Time.

Howard’s business partners (Ed Norton, Kate Winslet and Michael Pena) need him to get sorted out – or broken completely so they can take his shares – so they hire three actors to play Love, Death and Time and gaslight their oncerespected colleague. The movie appears to be the result of millions of “inspirational” platitudes gleaned from social-media posts and then stitched together into a feature-length lecture with an inexplicable A-list cast.

The better way

After the suit failed to divide evenly, South led a spade to the king, took a spade finesse, cashed the spade ace and finished down one, losing the last three tricks – a club, a diamond and a heart – to West.

At the second table, South also concluded from West’s ace-of-clubs play that leading another club would be fatal. But he saw no advantage to test the hearts at this point. Instead, he took his three spade tricks first.

Superficially, this might seem to make no differ-

ence, but in fact it made all the difference in the world. West had to find three discards on the spades, and after letting go two low clubs, he was without recourse when the third spade was cashed. In practice, he pitched a heart, handing declarer four heart tricks and the contract. But had he decided to discard a diamond instead, South could then safely have conceded a club without trying the hearts, and the contract would still have been made.

Designer gowns

By LARRY COX

Q: My late mother worked for several charities in the Boston area during the 1950s and ‘60s. She often attended functions dressed in designer gowns.

I am clearing her town home and have discovered a closet full of her cocktail dresses and stylish clothing that she wore during the same period. Some of the treasures include an Arnold Scaasi evening gown featuring a strapless bouffant dress in silk satin, an Anne Fogarty black linen dress, and other pieces by Pierre Cardin, Bill Blass, Oscar

De La Renta and Hubert De Givenchy. I hate to donate them to a thrift shop. Do you have any suggestions?

– Suzanne, Naperville, Ill. A: Your mom’s clothing should, indeed, be preserved. I suggest you contact the Art Institute of Chicago, which maintains an important collection of designers’ clothing.

Contact is Michigan Ave. at Adams St., Chicago, IL 60603; 312-443-3600; and www.artic.edu.

Even though the name Hubert De Givenchi may not be familiar to many readers of this column, he created quite a sensation

Q: I have a copy of The First Battle: A Story of the Campaign of 1896 by William Jennings Bryan.

It was either a first or early edition, and I would like to know its value. – Jeanne, Bluford, Ill. A: I found a number of copies of the 1896 edition online at www.abe. com, most for less than $10 each, with the highest being a first edition with no dust jacket for $21. To the dozens of people who contact me every month about older books, this is my favorite Internet place to determine the fair market value of older and outof-print books.

Q: I have several pieces of Candlewick glassware. I understand that it has been discontinued, and I would like to know more about this pattern. – Ora, Prince Frederick, Md. A: According to Glass A to Z by David Shotwell (KP Books, $24.95), Candlewick glass was introduced by Imperial Glass in 1936. It was discontinued in 1982. The pattern, known as Imperial’s No. 400, is rather plain, with molded beading around the rims and bases of most pieces.

Simply add watermelon to see resolution results

T

he start of a new year is the perfect time for new beginnings, including a fresh start on eating healthy. The trick to making this year’s resolution stick is introducing smart eating habits so tasty and easy that your eating plan becomes more a way of life than a short-lived commitment. One easy way to achieve that habit is by adding watermelon to your daily diet, giving your body a low-calorie option to curb an appetite for unhealthy snacks.

Set reasonable goals. A deprivation diet is destined to fail because eventually your body will rebel.

Instead, aim for well-rounded meals with moderate portions. If weight loss is your ultimate goal, know that losing two pounds a week is generally considered the maximum.

Satisfy your sweet tooth.

Everyone, even the most dedicated health food fans, experience cravings from time to time. Most experts agree that it’s OK to answer your sweet tooth – in moderation of course. Before you take the plunge, think about whether there are other

options that could be a good substitute. For example, instead of a sugary candy bar, consider a naturally sweet slice of watermelon for a cholesterol-free, fat-free way to satisfy cravings at only 80 calories per 2-cup serving. Watermelon contains fiber and water, and packs a wealth of health benefits, including strong levels of vitamins A, C and B6.

Stay well hydrated. During the cooler winter months, it’s easy to let water consumption slide because you’re not feeling the heat and thirst you do in warmer weather.

However, the dry winter air can also be hard on your body, so it’s important to keep that water flowing yeararound. Most adults should aim for eight glasses of water each day, but you can also boost your water intake with foods that have a high water content, such as watermelon, which is 92 percent water and contains protein and fiber so you are satisfied on fewer calories while boosting your overall hydration.
