SPIRIT OF JEFFERSON Farmer's ADVOCATE -- THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1988
Faith B. Cone
Dial 725-5488
Seems like forever since I wrote
after doing last week's column so ear-
ly. I'm still full of turkey though I don't
know what that has to do with
anything., .We have good news and had
news in the health department. Let's
get the bad news over first. After the
early column had gone to The Spirit,
Bette Gault returned from Florida
with the tale of John Nelsons bad
health - he had been hospitalized. She
asked that we all let Edna know that
we were thinking of her. Since then, we
all received word of John's sudden
death. All our thoughts and sympathy
go to Edna Peddicord Nelson, former
resident of Blue Ridge Acres, and a
good friend to many here...Better
news in the health area is about Marv
Browning, who had sudden major
surgery last week. Ruby says that
Marv was up and around at the
tmspitsl Saturday and that he should
be home by the time this column is
printed. Cross our fingers. Mary's sud-
den illness caused the cancellation of
a family Thanksgiving scheduled to be
given at his house. Too bad.
Other Bette Gault news on a later
call included the upcoming perfor-
mance of the Masterworks Chorale at
Shepherd College December 12. The
group, under the direction of Jay
Stenger, will sing English Christmas
carols as well as a portion of The
Messiah. This free concert will be held
at 8 p.m. in the Arts Center. After
much cooking and furnishing lots of
her famous vegetable beef soup as
well as peaches for Zion's Farmers
Market, Bette took Thanksgiving Day
off and enjoyed dinner with daughter
Marsha.
BeLts and Pappy Kitchen made
their annual visit to Joe's aunt in
Petersburg and came home during
last week's driving rain - tired but hap-
py as Russ's mother used to say. Of
course, since then, we have had
another big rain...One brave begonia
in my flower bed still raises its red
head in defiance of the frosty nights.
Surely it will be gone by the time this
column is delivered to you...No black
squirrel this week, nor have we seen
the pileated woodpeckers starting on
our suet. Boo hoe.
Understand that Farren McGraw of
Red Oak got an eight-point buck ear-
ly in the hunting season. Haven't heard
of any other success, but am sure
there are some more by people of our
reservation.
I went grocery shopping Tuesday
and ran into Carmen Howe. Although
Carmen and Harvey had three invites
for Thanksgiving , they felt that
with their colds, which still hang on,
they should stay home. Carmen
bought such a large bird that it was
hard to believe she was cooking for on-
ly three people. Carmen was one of the
three people who called me about John
Netn's death: Bettie LaMotte and
BLUE RIDGE A CRE.S
Bette Gault called earlier. I called
Warren and Anne Nystrom in Boca
Raton hoping to catch Ruthie and Bill
Van Vleck, who spent Thanksgiving
with the Nystroms. The Van Vlecks
came a day early, said Anne, to avoid
the forecast hurricane on their side of
Florida, but apparently there was no
problem. They had already left for
home.
My nephew Jack Bell, who is work-
ing near Philadelphia, drove down to
spend Thanksgiving with Russ and
me. Had been a number of years since
we had seen him. He has a great full
head of hair, but it has turned com-
pletely gray even though he is still in
his early 40's. Whatta thatch...Son
John Gardirr brought his partner Pat
Compton for Thanksgiving dinner.
What loot! John had smoke-cooked a
large turkey in his water BBQ while
Pat made and brought a large cheese
cake with fresh strawberry topping
and a huge German chocloate cake for
himself, Russ Cone. About all I had to
fix was broccoli and sweet potatoes
and I wasn't that happy about the way
they turned out. Of course I like sweet
potatoes only when they are just bak-
ed without any stuff with them.
Bertha DeVese and Gladys Gooch
had some of Bertha's relatives visit
Whispering Stream for Thanksgiving.
Rather than cook however, the crew
went out to eat dinner in Charles
Town. Said it was delicious and en-
joyed by all. As always, Len Erickson
joined Emily and Phil Langchough for
their Thanksgiving feast. Wallace and
Kathryn Knutsen brought young Nor-
man to Blue Ridge Acres for the
weekend. Said they hadn't been able
to do much visiting this summer so
were making up for it this fall. They
stopped by our house Saturday night
to wish Russ well.
Thanksgiving weekend was a biggie
for the Pinsons. I don't usually do
birthdays except for big ones but
'89 is a biggie. Lots o Pinsous and
Marilyn's relatives came to celebrate
Julie Fritz's birthday at Shenandoah
Home. Grandsons Chuck and Mike
Pinson (with wife Roxanne) came to
visit. Marilyn's sister Zelma and her
family drove up for the occasion.
Naturally, Jim Pinson was among the
celebrants. Cake, candy, gifts, etc.,
stretched the birthday into a long
weekend. Happy 891h, Julie Fritz.
One of the things that son John
brought out with him a lot of old
Katharine (I'm always surprised at
the "a" in her name) Hepburn movies
- she's John's favorite actress. Next
day Russ and I watched and enjoyed
"Stage Door." My present for John
resulted from an article in this
month's Smithsonian magazine. The
article created the word
"heteronymn." (John's crazy about
words as I used to be when I used them
all the time.) A heteronymn is a word
that has only one spelling but has two
separate pronunciations and two
distinct meanings - separate is a very
good example. The author, Felicia

Concert Series
Given Support
To many in the community "Exten-
sion Homemakers" conjm'es up im-
ages of afghans, tollhouse cookies and
bake sales. Few realize that the
homemakers clubs first arrived on the
scene in Jefferson County in 1931 and
now there are between two and three
hundred women participating in 15
clubs county-wide. Nor are many peo-
ple aware that through the County
Council 17 committees establish an-
nual goals focusing on betterment of
our community.
The cultural arts committee has
taken on as its primary goal for
19-1989 the revitalization of the Blue-
merit Concert Series. Bluemont is a
non-profit arts organization which
works in partnership with businesses,
civic organization and individuals to
bring quality performers to our
schools and the general public.
Under joint sponsorship of Bluemont
and the extension homemakers
"Nowell Sing We Clear" will welcome
in the Christmas season with a concert
at Shepherdstown Presbyterian
Church this Friday, December 2, at 8
p,m. Admission is $3 for the presenta-
tion
For additional information on the
Bluemont project, or if you would like
to see Bluemont at your school or spon-
sor a concert, contact Extension
Homemakers Cultural Arts Chairman
Jo Anne Mulrconey at 725-2315.
Lampert, included 16 of tem in her
article and said that her master list
contained about 45 of which she felt
was close to a close. John and I hope
to find more than that - we now have
33 identified. A couple of examples of
heteronymns are: "The bass swam
around the bass drum on the ocean
floor," and "The buck does odd things
when the does are in heat." They are
. harder to find than you would think.
NEWS OF YESTERYEAR
(ALL FROM DECEMBER 2, 1976
article.) "Thanksgiving at BRA as
usual was full of fun and families and
much good food. Bertha DeVese's
brother was expecting her and Gladys
Gooch for Thanksgiving dinner, but
Glad's hack kept her in bed and it look-
ed like pet roast would be the order of
the day. Not so. Edie Monk appeared
and brought over two turkey dinners
complete with all the fixings. BRA
people are so nice. Peggy McCullen
had about 13 house and apartment
guests to help celebrate her first
Thanksgiving at BRA. Betts and Joe
Kitchen had big and little Kitchens and
neighbors spilling out the eaves.
Wayne Kitchen got a deer early in the
hunting season but he and Cyndy took
off for Romney to try for another. Son
John came up to have Thanksgiving
with Russ and me. Leftovers were
shared with our baby opossum who
was joined by a small black and white
friend. While the baby skunk was
chewing on a piece of turkey skin, a
huge oak leaf fell and he really
jumped: up went his back, up went the
big busy tail, and I thought that we had
really had it. Luckily he discovered it
was only a leaf. WHEW!

if desired, a small covered dish, a con-
tribution to increase the poundage of

the club.
"The snow is snowing; the wind is
blowing; and I don't know if this col-
umn will get to the Spirit on time. I
hope so, but that little old Route 32 is
a tricky road. But I surely do love
snow, especially from the inside look-
ing out.
"When you get the Christmas spirit,
why not give THE SPIRIT for
Christmas? ? ?"
Back to year 1988 - no snow, just rain
this a.m. but Route 32 is just as tricky
as it was a dozen years ago. See you
next week. Faithfully...
P.S. After I got downstairs our black
squirrel came to the feeder but a gray
one ran him off. Oh dear.
