New House of Flags museum almost ready Opening set for November by Samantha Hurst

Patriotic sentiment flows from the ceiling and the walls as you step into the House of Flags Museum in Green Creek. Board members anxiously await the chance for that same feeling to emit from Columbus when the museum moves to its new location there in November. Board chairman Robert Williamson said the opportunity to move to Columbus would allow the museum to share its collection of more than 300 flags, and the history they tell, with a wider audience. “We as a people have a history of telling (Continued on page 6)

Jones retires from Tryon Water Plant after 25 years Town recognizes her service with reception, resolution by Leah Justice

Tryon Water Plant Supervisor Betty Jones has decided to retire after working with the town for 25 years. Jones is the town’s water expert, having worked at the town’s original water plant that used mountain water, the former plant that brought Lake Lanier on as the town’s source in 1988 and the recently completed rehabilitated plant that is able to use both sources. Tryon employees joined Jones during a reception in her honor Tuesday, Sept. 13. The town presented Jones with a resolution approved by town council that recognized her service. Her last day of work was yes-

terday, Thursday, Sept. 15. Jones began her employment in Tryon on Jan. 14, 1987 and was promoted to water plant supervisor in 1991. “Betty Jones has performed her jobs with the Town of Tryon’s water system with skill and dedication, facing difficult times of severe drought, overseeing development of Tryon’s multi-tiered emergency drought response and conservation plan and coordinating major projects and upgrades for the town’s water plant,” states the town’s resolution. During her career, Jones earned many certifications and participated in numerous professional organizations. She also assisted the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) on numerous occasions teaching (Continued on page 4)

news briefs A glance at some of the latest news in the area.

Artists and farmers fair

Debbi Thomas approached the Saluda Board of Commissioners Monday, Sept. 12 with a request for a special event permit. Thomas is leading efforts to host Saluda’s Artist and Farmer’s Fair. The fair would take place Oct. 22 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. in front of Nostalgia Courtyard businesses. The event is being put together to highlight local artists and farmers not featured in larger events this year. Any proceeds generated will be donated to the Saluda Community Land Trust and Polk County Agriculture Department. Council members unanimously approved the request and waived any necessary vendor fees for participants.

Saluda police reports

The Saluda Police Department reported assisting with 10 state traffics stops, three civil issues, serving 12 warrants, working one larceny and one traffic accident and assisting with Henderson County and Columbus in checkpoints in the month of August. Two officers recently completed radar training as well. Commissioner Johnny Kinard said as soon as all the officers are trained, radars would be set up on a regular basis through town limits.

Landrum police report Lt. Tim Edgens reported that the Landrum Police Department wrote 49 traffic citations, with eight arrests; worked 32 criminal investigations with 32 arrests; worked six accidents and wrote 78 warning citations.

Landrum fire department remains busy

Landrum Fire Department responded to 25 emergencies, bringing their total up to 202 already this year. This number is 31 more calls than the same time last year. The department also assisted in cleaning out underground drainage pipes for the city. One firefighter is taking emergency vehicle training and 10 are taking Firefighter One training.

American Water Works Association and the North Carolina Water Environment Association. Jones said her retirement is bittersweet as she is ready to retire from the work, but will miss the people. “I won’t necessarily miss the job,” she said, “but I will miss the people.” Jones plans to spend more time with her family after retiring. Greg McCool will take over as the town’s new operator in charge at the water plant.

our story through flags,” said Williamson. “That’s what I personally love about all of the flags in our collection – they each tell a story.” William Washington’s fiancé ripped curtains off the wall of her home to stitch together a personal battle flag for Washington, George Washington’s cousin, before he took up arms in the American Revolutionary War. A replica of that flag hangs from the museum ceiling. Meanwhile, many flags flown early in the nation’s history present the image of a Timber rattlesnake, which only strikes when provoked. Many of these read, “Don’t tread on me,” as a proclamation of settlers’ frustration with what they considered unfair taxation by England. Others show the evolution of our nation from 13 stars and 13 bars to 13 bars and 50 stars, as the nation grew. There are also three flags on

display honoring those that died in the September 11 attacks. Constructing the new home for the museum has been a labor of love for board members and volunteers. “It didn’t happen all at once, but it’s a testament to the community support behind this project,” Williamson said. Efforts to remodel the building, which formerly served as a city hall and fire department for Columbus, will have taken less than a year to complete because of volunteers and donations, Williamson said. “I’ve still got to compile the latest numbers, but we believe more than 350 donors have been a part of this effort,” said board member Frank Ortiz. Donations include two from an anonymous donor in the amounts of $10,000 last year and $30,000 this year, for a total of $40,000. In August, The Timken Foundation of Canton, Ohio, (Continued on page 7)

awarded a significant grant to the museum. Upon completion the second floor will be named the Timken Room and the Timken flag will be featured there. “The House of Flags Museum is extremely grateful to receive such a generous grant from the Timken Foundation of Canton,” Williamson said. “This grant will substantially fund Phase II (second floor) of our museum remodeling project.” Most recently, the House of Flags also received a $1,000 donation from Duke Energy. “The donations made it possible to hire contractors and purchase the materials we needed when we needed them. The money and volunteers were what made this happen,” Williamson said. One of the major contributors was the county. County commissioners donated the new museum building for 30 years at $1 a year. Because the donation was made, Paul Sutherland said board members went from trying to discern how they would raise $1 million for a new building to simply needing $100,000 to remodel the existing Columbus location. “We’ll be accessible now, being on one of the most traveled roads in Polk County,” Sutherland said. Board member Bob Lair chimed in that the increased accessibility would allow them to market the museum to groups further away and to those just passing through. “You can have field trips for children and bus tours for groups,” said volunteer Bob Lair. “The location is ideal because you will have the Polk County Historical Museum, the courthouse and the House of Flags right in a row.” One of the aspects that means the most to board members is that many of the flags were donated from local service

members, by past visitors to the museum or in honor of loved ones who have passed on. This will allow volunteers to tell personal stories that might help better connect visitors with the symbolism each flag represents – that of patriotism, courage and passionate ideals. As visitors step into the lobby of the new museum they will find themselves surrounded by emblems of military heroes, including the three-star flag of the late George Axtell of (Continued on page 8)

Tryon. Axtell, a WWII veteran, donated the flag to the museum just before he passed away earlier this year. While in the South Pacific, Axtell’s squadron had 124.5 kills, the highest in the Okinawa campaign. For this success, Axtell was awarded the Navy Cross on April 28, 1945. Axtell’s wife, Shirley, is expected to cut the ribbon at the House of Flags opening in November. The Birth of a Nation room will take individuals on a historical journey through the country’s long path to become a new nation. They will see replicas of flags flown outside the tents of generals in war and of the various countries whose flags and ideals had a hand in crafting our own. In the feature room of the museum one can find a circle of flags representing the 27 official United States flags, surrounded on the walls by flags from all 50 states and the U.S. territories. They will learn about the state of Ohio’s flag and how there is only one other flag shaped like it in the world. They’ll see the progression of states joining the Union as each one created its own emblem as its star joined the nation’s flag. They will also have

the chance to view a collection of war posters from World War II that all used the flag as a symbol. “People fly flags to show their patriotism,” Williamson said. “When you go back to any major crisis you see that people flew the flag as a sign of solidarity.” Board members hope to further educate visitors to the museum by providing audio tours through the building. The group is currently seeking out other grants to cover the costs of putting such a program together. There is still work to do to get the new museum open in time for Veterans Day on Nov. 11, 2011. Floors need to be finished, boxes need to be moved and flags need to be rehung from walls and ceilings. If you are interested in volunteering your time, call Paul Sutherland at 828-894-2514. The new House of Flags Museum will be located at 33 Gibson Street in Columbus. The House of Flags is a North Carolina not-for-profit corporation and an IRS 501(c)3 organization. Accordingly all donations to the museum are tax-deductible. If you want to support the museum visit the website www.houseofflags.org or contact by mail at P.O. Box 1090, Columbus, N.C. 28722.

Local fiber group to meet Sept. 20 at ag center Dye garden project planned by Barbara Tilly

Hannon General Hauling

Friday, September 16, 2011

A group of fiber enthusiasts began meeting this summer to discuss ways of building the local fiber economy and reviving the area’s rich fiber tradition. Members may include spinners, knitters, weavers, fiber producers and processors – anyone who works with fiber. The group will meet again Tuesday, Sept. 20 at 6 p.m. at the Mill Spring Agricultural Center. Anyone interested in fiber is welcome. Among the items on the agenda for this month’s meeting are: • Developing a brochure to promote the group and fiberrelated activities in the area • Discussing possible events the group could hold • Planning a garden of plants used to produce natural dyes • Discussing other possible

group activities, such as demonstrations of fiber techniques. At the group’s August meeting, attendees shared information about their craft or farm. The items displayed ranged from hand weaving, felted and beaded bags, quilted artworks and hand-dyed wools to kudzu paper and “franken sweaters” made by felting and sewing together wool from old sweaters. The group discussed creating a directory of area fiberrelated resources and holding shows highlighting local fiber artists and area farms where fiber-producing animals are raised. One possibility was a minishow in November at the ag center. Tentatively named “Llamas on the Lawn,” the show could feature llamas, alpacas and other fiber animals. It could also offer demonstrations of dyeing, spinning, felting and other techniques, as well as displays of locally produced fibers and fiber art for sale.

Columbus Lions table plans for rebuilding cross Since the Columbus Lions’ cross on Tryon Peak was destroyed almost 2½ years ago, club members have been investigating ways in which the cross might be rebuilt. After hitting one road block after another, they have with much regret voted to table the project indefinitely. The Lions’ Cross shone from Tryon Peak every Easter and Christmas season for more than 50 years. It withstood many storms in addition to challenges from the American Civil Liberties Union, but it did not survive the work crew from Crown Castle Corporation (owner of the communications tower on Tryon Peak) that removed it from their tower during the Easter season of 2009. The Lions did not know why the cross lights went out until they drove up the mountain and found the structure had disappeared overnight. When contacted, Crown Castle explained that they had re-

cently purchased the tower and had removed the cross when they found no lease or paperwork authorizing the cross to be mounted there. They stated that they were in the process of making structural repairs to the tower and the added weight of the cross may have contributed to the problems. Although the Lions had a rentfree agreement with the previous owner of the tower, they had no legal claim once the tower was sold to Crown Castle. Crown Castle did offer to provide a piece of their land on Tryon Peak if the Lions wished to build a tower of their own. The problems the Lions encountered when they considered building their own tower went far beyond cost. After investigation, they learned that any tower they constructed would be regulated by the Federal Communications Corporation, the Federal Aviation (Continued on page 12)

2x1 tu, f

He does look like a crazy professor, doesn’t he? That’s because he is! A professor, I mean, I’m not suggesting anything else. Always on a learning path (apparently he graduated from Chapel Hill, wonder if he wore that bow-tie for graduation?) Anyway, he’s an absolute super genius, an author, intellectual, and some say, an imposter. And he’s harboring a secret grudge against Mr. Boddy. I wonder if he’s concocted some super-duper cerebral plot to do away with him? But how? And in which room, and with which weapon? You can only find out if you come and see the show. And did I mention there are 216 possible endings? Show dates are Sept. 22-25 and Sept. 29 - Oct. 2 at the Tryon Little Theater Workshop.

Authority and N.C. Ridge Law. In addition to discovering laws regarding light pollution, they also learned that only communications and emergency systems towers can exceed 40 feet in height, which would be insufficient for the cross. Therefore, the Lions abandoned the hope of building a tower themselves. Then an individual came forward and offered to allow the Lions to mount the cross on a communications tower he would

be constructing on Brushy Ridge of Hogback Mountain. Unfortunately, the option was eliminated when it was determined that a cross at that location would not be visible in the Columbus area. At this point, the Lions concluded they had no choice other than to table indefinitely any plans for rebuilding the cross. Money remaining in the cross fund will be used for other local Lions service projects. Citizens can contact the Columbus Lions at P.O.

Saluda continues to press forward on city hall repairs by Samantha Hurst

Saluda City Hall’s impact on the ambiance of downtown, as well as energy efficiency, have taken top priority in the minds of city leaders as they take another step toward making repairs to the historic building. “The question is can we replace the windows with vinyl or aluminum and retain the historic feel of the building,” said Commissioner George Sweet. “I’m convinced we can. Ernie [Williams] and I are trying to come up with a way we can do this at a reasonable cost and at the same time reduce our heating and cooling costs and our maintenance costs.” Bids have been received for replacing all the windows upstairs and downstairs, except for the main windows on the front of the building. Bids have also been received for repairing the brick and mortar on the building’s façade. This last step must be completed before any other repairs are made, including replacing the leaking roof. Two estimates were submitted

for brick with one slightly more costly, but Sweet said the company has done a lot of work on buildings in Hendersonville. Several local contractors said they were not interested in tying themselves up that long on one job, Sweet said, although they were contacted. Sweet proposed to hire Outlaw Masonry. John Morgan seconded the motion. The proposal from Outlaw includes sealing all of the bricks and mortar on the building for $9,702. Replacement of the upper and bottom windows will cost $14,684. Replacing the front windows alone will cost $15,000 because of the way the building is built out on the inside. Replacing the windows will mean restructuring the frames. To complete all windows in the building will cost about $30,000. The city allotted just $10,000 in this year’s budget for renovations but will look to other options to fund the rest of the renovation costs. The Saluda City Hall building was last restored in 1986 but is about 100 years old.

Visitor spending in N.C. hits record $17 billion North Carolina businesses took in more from visitor spending last year than they ever have before. Visitors to North Carolina spent a record $17 billion in the state in 2010, an increase of 9 percent over 2009, according to the N.C. Department of Commerce. The state reports that 183,880 jobs in North Carolina were directly supported by visitor spending, which also generated nearly $1.5 billion in tax revenue for state and local governments, a 10 percent increase from 2009. Visitor spending was up in 98 of the state’s 100 counties, and 13 of the counties saw double-digit increases. N.C. Governor Bev Perdue attributed the increased visitor spending to investments that have created a higher quality of life in the state. “The progress is attracting people and businesses to move here, and, as we see from this data, it also is drawing more tourists and visitors each year, fueling the tourism industry, a critical economic driver in North Carolina,” said Perdue. According to the state, tourism spending supported nearly $4 billion in payroll income in North Carolina last year. Mecklenburg County has more than 41,000 employees in tourismrelated businesses, the most of any county. Wake was second with 18,430 and Guilford was third with 11,440. Mecklenburg County also led the state in tourism spending with approximately $3.7 billion, followed by Wake County with more than $1.5 billion and Guilford County with more than $1 billion. Only Columbus and Northampton counties saw declines in visitor spending last year. Tourism spending figures

are estimates based on sales and tax revenue figures, along with employment data. – source: N.C. Department of Commerce *** Travel through GreenvilleSpartanburg International Airport (GSP) continues to rise since Southwest Airlines arrived at the airport in March. GSP set another record for passenger traffic in July, serving 170,020 passengers for the month, an increase of 37.2 percent over July 2010. The total was also up 2 percent from the previous alltime high set in June. GSP said it expects passenger traffic will remain high. After Southwest began service in March, Delta Airlines began using larger airplanes to serve more passengers from GSP. The airport said it could see an additional increase in traffic next year when AirTran Airways discontinues its service from Asheville, N.C., but continues flights from GSP. – source: ‘The Business Journal’ for Greenville, Spartanburg and Anderson , 9/12/11

was spotted in North Carolina in some residential areas and near some farm fields in July, and has been seen in areas across South Carolina. Researchers said the insect, also known as the brown marmorated stink bug, caused extensive crop damage last year in parts of Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware and Pennsylvania. The insect can feast on crops such as apples, peaches, blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, tomatoes, peppers, sweet corn and soybeans. Researchers said this may be the year that the insect reaches North Carolina. “It really wasn’t until last year until the populations (in the mid-Atlantic states) unexpectedly exploded,” said Jim Walgenbach, a researcher at NCSU’s Mountain Horticultural Crops Research & Extension Center in Mills River. “Listening to my colleagues up there, it sounded like a biblical plague.” Walgenbach said the insect is likely to expand more quickly in the Carolinas because of the warmer climate. – source: Raleigh News and Observer, 9/5/11

The most recent disaster to hit the county came from Hurricane Irene, which brought more widespread flooding. The county’s two major cash crops, tobacco and cotton, were severely damaged. Bertie is one of 33 counties in the state that are eligible for federal disaster assistance following Hurricane Irene. Despite the recent string of disasters, many of the county’s residents said they are sticking around to help the county rebuild. After debris from the hurricane is removed, residents said they will get back to work on rebuilding structures damaged in the tornadoes. “I love it here,” said Bertie County resident Tricia Jerrigan. “It’s country. Nobody bothers you. Where else would I go?” – source: www.insurancejournal.com, 9-7-11

*** Bertie County in Eastern North Carolina is trying to recover after suffering through three major disasters in the past year. The county received more than 24 inches of rain and endured days of flooding when Tropical Storm Nicole passed through last September. More than 200 homes and businesses were destroyed and boats were used to rescue some residents from upper floors of buildings. Seven months later tornadoes ripped through the county, killing 12 people and destroying 67 homes. Many other properties suffered severe damage.

*** The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (DNR) said it’s formulating a plan to address increased bear sightings in the state. The agency said its goal is to keep the state’s bear population at a level that fits with land-use objectives and acceptable levels of human contact. The state reports that more than 200 bear sightings have occurred in Upstate South Carolina so far this year, far more than what was reported last year. Only 110 bear sightings were reported in all of last year, according to the state. DNR said it has no records of bears attacking people in the state, but it reminds residents that feeding bears is illegal and could result in a fine of up to $500. – source: wyff.com, 9/12/11 *** North Carolina has launched a “No Kid Hungry” program (Continued on page 24)

to try to make sure all children have breakfast during school and even in the summer. The federally-funded program will begin as a pilot program in 28 schools in the state, offering free breakfast to students who qualify for the federal free or reducedprice lunch. The state said about 640,000 students in North Carolina qualify for the free or reduced meals, but fewer than half of them participate in school breakfast. The state, which ranks 11th in the nation for households facing food hardship, announced the program along with its partner organizations, national nonprofit Share Our Strength and North Carolina nonprofit N.C.

Guelich of Minneapolis, Minn., and Carol Finnie of Lebanon, Ohio; three grandchildren, Scott Calvert, Kimberly Simon (Jeff) and Steven Calvert (Stephanie). Also surviving are four great-grandchildren, Kyle, Ryan, Katie and Chris Calvert. Memorial services will be held at 2 p.m. Monday, Sept. 19 in the Tryon Presbyterian Church, with Dr. Dent Davis officiating. Memorials may be made to the Tryon Presbyterian Church, 430 Harmon Field Road, Tryon, N.C. 28782 or to Hospice of the Carolina Foothills, 130 Forest Glen Dr., Columbus, N.C. 28722 or to your favorite charity. An on-line guest register may be signed at www.mcfarlandfuneralchapel.com. McFarland Funeral Chapel, Tryon. According to the state, one in four children are at risk of hunger in North Carolina. Organizers said they plan to expand the program eventually to include meals during the summer. Share Our Strength already has similar partnerships in 14 other states and plans to launch the program in four others this year. “In the states where we’ve already done it, we’ve seen huge results – literally tens of thousands of kids added to school breakfast, added to summer meals, so we know that we can do that here in North Carolina,” said Bill Shore, founder of Share Our Strength. “The federal money is set aside to pay for it and it’s money that comes into North Carolina and buys milk from local dairy farmers, bread from local bakeries, so it’s a win-win for everybody.”

82 pounds of blueberries, which were given to Thermal Belt Outreach. Later in August, 10 members of Tryon UMC picked more than 800 pounds of apples at a church memberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home.

Cannon has thrown for 705 yards and ran for 290 yards. The defense has also responded with Cannon, Chasten Thomas and Ryan Herbst leading the charge. Landrum will have two more games before they get into their region schedule. Landrum will travel to Dixie tonight at 7:30 p.m. and will host Liberty next week at 7:30 p.m.

She cleans him, feeds him, and heed’s him, and she’d be the first to tell you that if life is a bowl of cherries, hers is the pits! She used to be in education, but because of a debt she owes her boss, she’s virtually enslaved. Do you think she may be holding a grudge? Her life would certainly be better if something happened to Mr. Boddy…and the kitchen has lots of knives, not to mention those candlesticks she has to keep cleaning.

Gifts Q. should I use my applicable exclusion ($1million) during my lifetime or upon my death? A. Many people have the misconception that it is best to “save” their applicable exclusion amount until their death. However, a more powerful leveraging technique is to utilize it during your lifetime. If you use your applicable exclusion amount by making lifetime gifts, the value of the gifts will appreciate in the recipients’ hands and not in your taxable estate. Between investment growth and inflation, the value of the gift should be substantial. For example, assuming the value of your gift will double every 7.2 years, if your life expectancy is 21 more years, a $1 million gift will be worth $8 million in the hands of the recipients at the end of the time. assuming a 55% tax rate, you would have to leave over $17.7 million to provide your heirs with the same amount. Call (828) 696 1811 for info on this or other planning techniques. SASS-033248 1x7 11/27

LHS Senior/Parent Meeting, Sept. 20 The Landrum High School (LHS) guidance department has planned a meeting for high school seniors and their parents. The counselors encourage all seniors and parents of seniors to make plans to attend. Information regarding college applications, scholarships and financial aid will be provided, as well as sug-

gestions on time management during the senior year. The meeting will be held in the Landrum High School Auditorium on Sept. 20 at 7 p.m. immediately following the Landrum High School Open House that begins at 6 p.m. - article submitted Linda Waddle

Big Brothers Big Sisters session Sept. 20 Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) will hold an information session on Sept. 20 at 6:30 p.m. at the Polk County Public Library. The presentation is primarily for prospective volunteers, but also informative for parents or community members interested in learning more about BBBS.

There is a need for volunteers to serve as council members, as mentors in local elementary schools or as Bigs in the traditional community-based program. For more information, please call 28-859-9230. - article submitted by Karen Dacey

We then discussed Blossom whom I had met at my last fund raiser where she absolutely dazzled everyone. It’s too bad her adoption fell through, I probably could of sold her right then and there. “Oh well, “ I thought, “I once again must trust in God’s plan.” Josh promised to send me photos and whatever info he had on her, though I knew her story and believe me, it’s typical, her story may come one day. I left with one more stop to make before heading home, the Frog and Swan to see Randy Grobe. To Randy’s credit, he knew all about Blossom and who had fostered her and saved her from euthanasia. He promised he would assist in finding her a home and I have since added her to Lori Jewel’s website from Pet Tender Angels. Please realize that my visits are not as quick as when I write them down, so it was nearly two p.m. when I arrived home. “You have two messages,” my wife said as I was down on one knee loving up my own kids. “I’ll get them in a bit, darling,” I said smiling, “lasagna first, I’m starving.

I received a tearful hug of gratitude from the lady I was helping and I told her, “Just calm down and get your life together, it’ll be better for the dogs and don’t lose your faith in the Lord, believe me, no matter how difficult thing seem, He is the answer.” I left her waiting for Pokie and headed back for Dogwood Farms, stopping for gas on the way. I stopped to check on Muffin when I arrived and she came to the fence, soaking wet, with a glorious smile on her face. I delivered the collars and sat down for a wonderful cup of coffee and refused food, telling them that I have some leftover lasagna at home that has my name written all over it. They were delighted with the collars and I smiled to myself, knowing that often it’s the little things that make the difference.
