Bonnie Peters writes about Art on Main, the Grace and Roy Moore pictures and variations of the name Heiskell, including the tale of Edith L. Haskell, benefactor.to Grace Moore. Ronnie Mincey talks about his best dog, Bear, in a yarn that makes one wonder how this kid ever grew up. It’s Union County history at its best.

11 reasons Florida matters (to Vols) By royal decree, there are no off days from fretting about Florida. Here’s how it is, folks. The door to Atlanta is secured with lots of locks. The Gators hold one of the keys. The Vols will almost certainly fail to reach the SEC championship opportunity if they don’t stop the streak. Every day, even three months out, is the correct time to keep that in mind. Florida has won 11 in a row. Tennessee was last triumphant in 2004. Think about it. Thousands of little children have no concept of a Vol victory in what should be spirited, relatively even competition.

Virtual Academy to expand By Sandra Clark The Tennessee Virtual Academy, an online school for grades K-8 administered by Union County Public Schools, is enrolling for the upcoming school year. UCPS Director of Schools Dr. Jimmy Carter said he received permission to open enrollment from Dr. Candice McQueen, state commissioner of education. Enrollment had been suspended for two years after former Commissioner Kevin Huffman attempted to close the school. “We were down to about 350 students, but now expect to enroll 800,� Carter said. “I’ve capped enrollment at 1,000.� The Virtual Academy is treated as another Union County school by state officials, and the county receives the state’s normal per pupil allocation for each enrollee. UCPS then contracts with K-12 Inc. to operate the program. UCPS retains four percent of the income – less than $100,000 in 2015-16. In a far-ranging interview, Carter talked about the district’s budget, personnel and plans for the upcoming school year. Budget: The school board has adopted a balanced budget which has moved to Union County Commission for final approval. It contains an average 1.5 percent raise for teachers, and Carter said the raise could be a bit more depending on final numbers from the state. “We’re still building our fund

You never know what you might run across at Art on Main. Batman on a horse and painted faces are only part of the fun. The rain held off just long enough to allow more than 800 folks to make their way through the streets of downtown Maynardville for the 6th annual Art on Main festival June 4. Union County veterans started the day off right with the opening ceremony. Susan Boone acquired demonstrators, Gloria Holcomb arranged for student artists and Libby Morgan brought in what was rumored among attendees to be the best entertainment of any AOM. To page 3

Some of the surplus was used to demolish unused structures. Personnel: Linda Harrell’s contract as principal at Union County High School was not renewed, although she will retain a position in her certified field, math, at the high school, middle school or alternative school. Harrell compiled a solid academic record at UCHS, but was

held accountable for the lack of oversight that enabled former bookkeeper Tammy Collins to steal more than $30,000 in school funds over two years. There was never a suggestion that Harrell benefited from the misuse of funds, yet she was responsible. “The principal must always open the bank statements,� Carter said. All other principals will be back at their posts when schools reopen in August. Carter said the system retains the same number of teaching positions, but a few shifts were made to increase efficiency.

New principal: Assistant principal Carmen Murphy is the interim principal at UCHS, and the hiring process that Carter has implemented for principals is unlike any this writer has seen elsewhere. Carter will advertise the position for 5-7 days and form a committee of two to four teachers from UCHS and one or two supervisors from the central office (not himself). The committee will interview applicants and vote by secret ballot. Carter will then accept or reject the committee’s recommendation. Carter said he’s used this process in hiring principals since he’s been director of schools. “It’s my final decision and I have accountability for it,� he said. “The teachers deserve the respect to help hire the principal, and the secret ballot helps take politics out of the hire.� He also expects the principals to hire their teachers and be accountable for them. Future: UCPS has moved professional development to summer “as much as possible.� Teachers get a stipend for working during a non-contract time. Carter said language arts teachers were in training all last week. Professional development is crucial as technology and expectations change. For instance, Carter wants to introduce Chromebooks as a teaching tool, but that requires teachers to know how to use them.

Making weight loss achievable

Luttrell gets housing grant By Shannon Carey

By Lori Beeler Crisp Weight loss is a subject that seems to be in center headlines recently. The reason for this is so many disease processes lead back to the foods and drinks that we consume daily. True ‌ we are genetically predisposed to certain illnesses, but overall what we consume and environmental factors play a huge role in our health. Years ago people did not worry about weight as much. Mainly because they walked weight off and worked it off. New technology has given us easily accessible commodities that we all are happy for ‌ such as washing machines and cars, but those commodities have led to a reduction in calorie burning. Although I am sure that we can all agree that our grandmothers cooking was the best, we can also certainly recognize the need for modiďŹ cation due to our changes in lifestyle patterns. Recently, we have had many patients who have inquired about a weight loss plan, and I will be honest with you, weight loss is difďŹ cult! It is difďŹ cult to face the fact that we have gained weight, and it is equally difďŹ cult to ďŹ gure out how we are going to lose the weight! The truth is that you have to reduce calories to lose weight and you have to become educated about foods

Chiropractic is a form of therapy that considers the whole person; it may offer a variety of approaches to your particular needs. You can be conďŹ dent that the treatments a chiropractor will offer will not include surgery or prescription drugs. The fundamental concept of chiropractic is that a healthy body is capable of curing many of its own ills. And at the foundation of that concept is the belief that a healthy, properly functioning spine, from which nerves emanate to every part of the body, is essential. So chiropractors are best known for their training and skill in manipulating the bones of the spine—the vertebrae— to make sure they’re in proper alignment. But their training and

expertise go well beyond spinal manipulation. Your chiropractor might, for instance, recommend a regimen of home exercise or stretching to help in your particular case. He might use massage therapy or ultrasound—the use of sound waves to stimulate activity in deep tissue—or advise you on nutrition. Ergonomics—the study of how people interact with their environments either at home or at work—is an area the chiropractor may advise you on. And your chiropractor won’t hesitate to refer you to another health care provider if your problem is beyond his or her area of expertise.

ŒŒÊ�€sss

opinion The ‘bestest’ Brownie I suppose I was a somewhat sensitive child. Occasionally I would get my feelings hurt by a sharp word of criticism or correction. Luckily, I had a true pal who never failed to comfort. I would go sit on the top step of the back porch. Though I had several imaginary friends, a real friend would come and sit beside me. I would put my arm around his neck, lean my cheek against his head and say, “You’re the only friend I have in this whole, wide world.� My friend never said a word, and while I played with the tufts of hair on his chest and patted his head, he would pant as if to say, “You’ve got that right, Bud!� This faithful friend was my dog Brownie. Brownie was a part-beagle, part-bull that my dad got when I was 7 or 8 years old from Earn Hendrix, a blind man who lived on Dotson Creek. Brownie seemed to come along just when I needed a friend the most. We hit it off immediately. Brownie responded to me in a justso-special way, and I loved him back and respected him for his intelligence. Brownie would never let a stray cat come into our yard, though he wouldn’t hurt them. We had several cats throughout the years, as they seemed to be constantly getting run over. Each time we got a new cat, all Mother had to do was carry it to Brownie and say, “Brownie, this is our new cat. Don’t you bother it.� Brownie spent many nights on the back porch sharing his cardboard box bed with our various cats.

Ronnie Mincey TEACHER TIME Brownie was usually fearless, but he did fear thunder. Dad would let him come inside, and he would lie on the floor between the two front doors until the storm passed. There was only one time he entered the house otherwise. My niece was lying on the bed in the living room when she was a baby, crying loudly, and no one was paying her any mind. Brownie was very protective of our family, so he broke through the screen door to see what was wrong. He had his paws on the bed when Dad caught him and swatted him with a broom, chasing him back out through the same hole in the screen through which he had entered. Later, when Dad figured out that Brownie was only worried about the baby, he bragged to anyone that would listen about what a smart dog Brownie was. Another time, Pearl Hodge, a frequent walker on the road past our house, stopped at the hedge to talk to Mother. In the course of conversation Pearl put her hand on Mother’s shoulder. Brownie obviously thought Pearl meant harm, and though he didn’t hurt Pearl, he made his point that she had better keeps hands off his people! Next week I’ll share with you how life with Brownie proved me to be a good detective.

When the alarm clock sounds on days of festivals, book signings and street fairs, I wake up thinking, “Why did I say I would do this?� As the day ends, I always know without a doubt exactly why I showed up. Yes, I sell some history books that I need to get off my shelves, and, yes, I take my work as Union County Historian seriously and want to be available to expand the cause of our wonderful heritage. However, the real jewels come in seeing the friends I meet and in clarifying or solving the mysteries that I have not been able to solve that draws me to these gatherings. Art on Main more than paid off. David Myers and I, as well as others, have talked about “where was the very first courthouse, jailhouse and Liberty Meeting House. We knew generally, but we want to know exactly. David said someone told him that the Liberty Meeting House was at the site of the Jake Moore house just off Spring Street. In tearing it down, the workers had found parts of the Liberty Meeting House. This theory makes perfect sense for another reason – the street perpendicular to Spring Street is named Church Street, and has been that name since the beginning of Maynardville street names. This is important to our history because this is the place where the formation of the county took place – on the hill just above Spring Street – not where First

Baptist Church of Maynardville is now. A courthouse for a meeting place didn’t happen until after the county was formed. David and I continued our conversation. Had I looked at the Grace and Roy Moore pictures left behind after they died? Yes, I had at least looked at some of them. The conversation moved on to an intriguing photograph with a notation on the back “Edith L. Haskell – my benefactor.� It was interesting for two reasons: There were about five different spellings of Heiskell when the family came over from Germany on the Ship Phoenix – Heiskell, Haskell, Hyskell, Huyskill and the ones that were not interested in genealogy that a cousin said must be those Heuschskells. At least some people’s spelling has advanced since the 1700s, and I think what happened is the brothers took and kept whatever spelling was on the ship’s roster. Anyway, I had assumed that Miss Haskell had probably assisted Roy with college expenses, but David had heard the story: Years ago Grace saw this woman struggling with her camera trying to get the film in. After a little while, Grace asked, “May I help you?�

I also need to say that I was impressed by the quality and beauty of vendor items. I wish Art on Main much success and growth in coming years. I’m so glad to be a part of it.

Edith L. Haskell Grace helped and they exchanged names and phones. A lasting friendship was established. Miss Haskell and Grace kept in touch the rest of Miss Haskell’s life. As it so happened, Miss Haskell was the daughter of a very wealthy Boston businessman. She never married and when she died she left her wealth to Grace! We all love stories like this. Then Lynn and Diane Underwood stopped by to visit, as well as Diane’s mother, Lorine Branam. They recently moved from Chicago to Hickory Point.

Worthless things

Milan journeys to Egypt By Shannon Carey Milan Baptist Church delivered a fun, immersive Vacation Bible School last week, as attendees journeyed to ancient Egypt and followed the Bible’s Joseph from prison to palace. Organizers Jackie and Sharon Muncey said this year’s VBS hosted close to 150 participants each eve-

Thus says the Lord: What wrong did your ancestors find in me that they went far from me, and went after worthless things, and became worthless themselves? (Jeremiah 2: 5 NRSV)

ning. The church’s volunteers were “a great help,� they said. “Everybody has just pitched in,� said Jackie. There were classes for every age group, infants through adults. Classrooms were decorated to emulate Egyptian themes, including a pyramid in one room. Teachers conducted incharacter Bible stories, too.

Leave it to the prophet Jeremiah to get right to the heart of things! And he was, indeed, talking about things! Apparently, it has always been an issue: we humans are into things. We love our toys, our status symbols, our belongings and our stuff! We love our stuff so much that we forget what is really important. When I was a child, maybe 8 or so, I said, out loud, “I love cinnamon rolls!� A family friend heard my comment and corrected me. She said, “A cinnamon roll can’t love you back. You like cinnamon rolls; you love people!� It is a distinction I have never forgotten! And it applies just as aptly to all of our stuff. Ask the people all over the coastal South right now who are trying to muck out their flooded houses. The news person asks the question (inane as it may be), “So how does it feel to have lost everything, to have all your belongings ruined?� Without exception, the answer is some form of “We are alive; that’s all that matters.� It is true: catastrophe focuses the mind. We discover the difference between things and lives. And, trust me on this, all the evidence in the world indicates that God loves people. God cares about lives. The God who notes a sparrow’s fall knows when you are hurting, when you are scared, when you think that you are alone. The truth is, of course, that you are never alone. God is with you, ready to help, to remind you of your worth in His eyes, to love you always.

Football ahead: Remember Tennessee-Florida 2004 By royal decree, there are no off days from fretting about Florida. Here’s how it is, folks. The door to Atlanta is secured with lots of locks. The Gators hold one of the keys. The Vols will almost certainly fail to reach the SEC championship opportunity if they don’t stop the streak. Every day, even three months out, is the correct time to keep that in mind. Florida has won 11 in a row. Tennessee was last triumphant in 2004. Think about it. Thousands of little children have no concept of a Vol victory in what should be spirited, relatively even competition. On some of those sad Saturdays the Gators were clearly superior. Other times, Vol blunders were pivotal. There were routs and a few squeakers. Details be damned, the net results are bad if not shameful. A great philosopher, in this case UT receiver coach Zach Azzanni, said “It is

Marvin West

what it is.� Zach said what we all see, that it hasn’t been much of a rivalry lately, that the Gators have had their way time after time. Zach also said the Vols are doing everything they can to change that. Let us never forget 2004. That was a landmark Vol victory, made better because the losers suffered anguish, even bitterness. Florida broke a 21 tie with an 81-yard pass and run with eight minutes remaining. Tennessee countered with an 11-play drive, capped by an Erik Ainge pass to Jayson Swain. Heaven help us, James Wilhoit missed the tying extra point. Florida, up 28-27, was

attempting to run out the clock. After third down, where the Vols got a stop, receiver Dallas Baker and defender Jonathan Wade entered into an altercation. Gators said Wade started it with a head slap. Baker responded in kind. Official Bobby Moreau saw the second blow and assessed 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct. The clock was stopped with 55 seconds remaining. By the grace of God, officials forgot to restart it. Florida punted. Tennessee got close enough for Wilhoit’s redemption, a 50-yard field goal to win with a few seconds to spare. After much yelling and screaming about cheating and foul play and unforgivable official blindness, Florida received a mid-week apology from the SEC office. That really helped. Joy has since been scarce. In 2005, Jonathan Hefney fumbled a punt. Florida won. Chris Leak,

who initially committed to UT before choosing the Gators, said Peyton Manning helped him win the 2006 game. Leak attended the Manning summer camp. Peyton answered a thousand questions. Other Vols contributed to that setback. Tennessee was minus-11 yards rushing. Tennessee fans thought the 59-20 disaster in 2007 symbolized approaching mediocrity. What Florida saw was Tim Tebow rushing for two touchdowns and throwing for two. While you weren’t looking, Cam Newton produced a late TD. Obviously, that was before the laptop incident and his migration. The Gators scored 17 in the first quarter in 2008. Game over. Lane Kiffin promised to sing Rocky Top “all night long� after his Vols whipped the Gators in Gainesville in 2009. Urban Meyer was properly provoked. He want-

ed to win by 75 but prevailed only by 10. CBS chose Kiffin for the postgame interview. Urban was double-ticked. Derek Dooley did nothing to change the trend. Butch Jones said the 10-9 loss in 2014 “was probably the lowest moment in my career.� Last season might have been second lowest. The Vols, up by 13 with five minutes to go, completely, totally and utterly unraveled. The Gators converted three fourth downs and won a shocker, 28-27. The winning play, a

63-yard touchdown pass, came on fourth and 13. That may have been when the Bob Shoop idea germinated. There you have 11 compelling reasons for no time off from fretting about Florida. Need I say more? Marvin West welcomes your views. His address is westwest@netzero.com

Cottrell at home on Market Square stage By Shannon Carey When Josh Cottrell took the stage on Knoxville’s Market Square June 9, it was “like coming full circle,� he said. Cottrell’s performance was part of the Concerts on the Square series, but the 24-year-old’s dream to be a musician was sparked by another concert series: Sundown in the City. Cottrell was 16, and Dave Barnes was playing. Cottrell begged his parents to let him go. But it was raining, a real Tennessee summer downpour. Cottrell said Barnes looked out at the drenched crowd and said, “You know what, it’s only water,� and launched into his hit, “Until You.� “The freedom he had onstage just kind of got to me,�

Josh Cottrell performs on Market Square.

he said. “We were dancing in the rain to that song, and it just sparked the dream for me.� Cottrell grew up in a musical family, but he is the only one of his siblings to pursue it full time. Guitar is his primary instrument, although he also plays piano. While attending Halls High School, he was the highestplacing solo act in the CTE Idol competition. His first album, “Burning Bridges,� came out in 2012. His newest project, an EP titled “Life with You,� was released last week in conjunction with his Market Square appearance. What ended this fouryear hiatus? Marriage. Cottrell credits his wife, Megan, with encouraging him back into the performing world.

‘Big Clinch River Cleanup’ seeks volunteers

They celebrated their oneyear anniversary just last month. Megan works at Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, and the couple reside in Union County. “My wife is the most supportive person I know,� he said. “If it hadn’t been for my wife, I don’t think that we’d be having this conversation.� In fact, while Cottrell said “Burning Bridges� has a lot to do with teen angst, “Life with You� is about exactly what you’d think: his life with Megan. “This is my tribute to the person my wife is and the person she’s helped me to be,� he said. Cottrell takes his musical inspiration from the likes of Barnes, Jason Mraz and Ed Sherran. He calls his musical style folk or alternative with

a “relaxed vibe to the songs.� Another source of inspiration was Cottrell’s church, the north campus of Cokesbury United Methodist Church. There he got to share the stage with Eric Baker, who became a mentor figure for him. “I do attribute all my musical talent to be a gift from God, and I try to pursue God on a daily basis,� Cottrell said. “Life with You� is now live on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify, and Cottrell has a slate of performances scheduled for this summer, including gigs at the Marina at Twin Cove and a stage at the Smoky Mountains Songwriters Festival in Gatlinburg.

All-State softball players in it to win it in 2017 By Seth Norris The Union County High School Patriots softball team had two players named to the 2016 Tennessee Softball Coaches’ Association AllState AA Team last week. Junior third base player Ashtyn Patterson and sophomore second base player Maggie Middleton were selected to first team honors. Recently, the softball team made it to the state tournament for the first time in the Union County High School era, and a large part of that can be attributed to the success of these two infielders. Coach Lance Lay says that the two complemented the team well. “Both bring something different to the game,� said Lay, “Ashtyn is a defensive specialist and controls the infield, and Maggie is our offensive specialist, bringing the majority of the hits for our team the last couple of years.�

Middleton is the most prolific bat on the team and has the reputation of being the hardest worker, according to Lay. Receiving the honor is a big payoff for her. “I worked very hard in the offseason,� said Middleton, “It was probably one of the best things that’s happened to me in softball.� During the season she led the Patriot softball squad with a .507 average at the plate, knocking in 31 runs. With her being the “offensive specialist� as a sophomore, she took on the role of Ashtyn Patterson, junior third base player for the Union County High School softball team, was recently named to the All-State a junior or senior. “I try to keep a positive AA Team.

moving forward. “It’s crucial if we are going to make a run for state again to have those two components there,� said Lay, “Add in all the other returning players, and we have a really good chance of going back.� With the individual honors and the individual suc-

cess Middleton and Patterson had, they are still putting the team first and pushing for another historic season for the program; just ask Patterson. “I want go back to Murfreesboro as a team,� said Patterson, “And win this time.�

Pierce, Dunsmore sign with Cleveland State By Seth Norris The good news for Union County High School softball continued on Friday as recent graduates Rachel Pierce and Bre Dunsmore signed to continue their softball careers with Cleveland State Community College. They were a big part of the high school’s state tournament appearance on the diamond this season with their effort and leadership, according to coach Lance Lay. He believes the Cleveland State Cougars are adding two solid players, calling Dunsmore “amazing defensively,� and Pierce an “allaround team player.�

However, the two aren’t just teammates, they are best friends, and Dunsmore believes that will make the transition to college much smoother. “It’s such a wonderful blessing from God to get to play with Rachel,� said Dunsmore, “We know each other’s strengths and can help each other; it will make it easier down there.� The two will be a couple of hours away from home, but according to Pierce, the draw to Cleveland State was that it didn’t necessarily feel that way. “I had gone down for a workout and the girls were

very welcoming, they were behind you the entire time,� said Pierce, “It almost had a homey atmosphere to it.� The Cougars are getting two girls with a winning pedigree because they never had a losing season during their time at the high school. On the heels of the historic season this year, Dunsmore believes they can carry some of their methods to Cleveland, Tenn. “If one of us was down, we were there to lift each other up and make sure we had each other’s back,� said Dunsmore, “Just have fun and not stress about anything.� Dunsmore and Pierce are

excited to get the opportunity to continue their careers. Both of their goals are to go down there and work hard, and see if it leads to playing at a four-year university. In sports, and in life, success is typically not achieved alone, and both girls made sure to mention the supporters they had to get them to this point. Dunsmore thanked Lay for making her a “better player and person,� while thanking her family and her dad for “always pushing me.� Pierce echoed those sentiments. “Most importantly, God
