CHURCH The tomb is empty - it’s time to go in FAITH IN THE COMMUNITY

Last week, as I traveled to Ohio to lead a conference on Aging Ministry, I had the opportunity to spend a couple of days with my mom.

Her significant other Tom died a few weeks ago in his battle against blood cancer, so I really wanted to see how she was doing.

Whenever I go to visit my mother Janice, there is always one stop that I want to make. And that is the Fairlawn Cemetery to visit my dad’s grave. My parents have one of those black granite headstones, with the names of myself and my sister chiseled on the backside. After spending some moments with my father, I began to walk among the other

Pastor Brad Hales

plots, recognizing names of adults whom I looked up to as a child, and contemporaries with whom I went to school and played sports.

I like walking in cemeteries and remembering. For some of you that may seem morbid or creepy. But as I traverse down the rows of different colored stones adorned with physical affections of love, I sense hope.

Because I know that when Jesus comes again, the tombs will open, and the believers will rise and experience new life. And that is exactly what Easter is all about.

On this coming April 21st we will indeed celebrate Easter. The rising from the dead of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Yes, its more than the Easter Bunny. Yes, it’s more than candy in baskets. And yes, it’s more than searching the countryside looking for eggs. We literally remember God’s Son, whom three days before

was crucified on a cross, and now has been brought back to life. No, his body wasn’t stolen or removed to an alternate location. Jesus truly rose and lives! In John 20, after Mary Magdalene saw that the stone had been rolled away from Jesus’ tomb, she ran to tell Peter and John, the other disciple. And according to Holy Scripture, this was their reaction. “So Peter went out with the other disciple, and they were going toward the tomb.

Both of them were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. And stooping to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in. Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there, and the face cloth, which had been on Jesus head, not lying with the linen but folded up in a place by itself. Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed. They went into the empty tomb and believed.

We are also being invited to go into that same empty tomb and believe that Christ has truly risen. When I traveled to Israel many years ago, I was amazed by the number of tombs that dotted the landscape. They were hewn into hills and mountains. My fellow travelers and I had the opportunity to go to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and another location where Jesus body may have been laid. Walking into those small, empty tombs was truly

an emotional experience. Realizing that Christ vary body may have risen from these locations is quite a powerful thing. But the bottom line is this. The tomb became empty over 2000 years ago and is still empty today! Its time for us to go into that unoccupied grave and start living like Jesus is truly alive.

I don’t know if you are struggling or not with the fact that Christ rose to provide all the opportunity of everlasting life. Maybe you’re asking yourself, “How do I know if Jesus is truly alive or not?” Outside of the witness of God’s Word, wherever we experience love, wherever we experience hope, wherever we experience forgiveness, wherever we experience peace, and wherever we experience healing, we can know for absolute a surety that Jesus has risen from the dead, and he lives. As it is written in Romans 10:9, “Because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”

The tomb is empty, and it’s time for us to go in.

COMMUNITY NEWS

Board of Supervisors advertises .62 cent tax rate for Fiscal Year 20 The Culpeper County Board of Supervisors voted 6-0 Tuesday afternoon to advertise a .62 cent tax rate for the Fiscal Year 2020.

The tax rate consists of a .53 cent real estate tax and a nine cent fire and rescue levy. Culpeper County Administrator John Egertson recommended the .62 cent rate over the equalized rate of .61 cents so the county could have funds to put toward future debt funding.

The proposed budget is lower than FY 19, coming in at $170.5 million. The FY 19 budget was $182 million but featured funding for Culpeper County Public School’s Career and Technical Education School.

The FY 20 budget includes $103.1 million in funding for CCPS and $67.4 million for other operations.

Egertson outlined eight significant budget increases which included nine new EMS positions ($724,845), a school’s request for funding - due to the decrease in state funding from sales tax revenues ($284,204) and a 2.03 percent COLA/merit pay increase ($528,797). The increases also included six new Culpeper County Sheriff’s Office positions for the jail and $250,000 for the Fire and Rescue Association.

The fire and rescue funding was a topic of discussion as Cedar Mountain Supervisor Jack Frazier asked if the county expected the number to stay the same in the future or if they expected any “surprises.”

Egertson responded that by looking to add the nine career staff positions, they expect to alleviate any problems. He stressed that they have the ambulances available, they just needed more staff for another shift.

“I can’t imagine we’ll be coming back asking for more in the near future,” he said.

The county projected to have $88 million in revenue in FY 20 and after expenses and general fund support, it expects to have $1,039,489 set aside for future debt service. The projected FY 20 fund balance is $30,848,990.

“The County’s adopted fiscal policies include a section regarding fund balance. The County’s policy is to maintain 10-15% of its operating budget in the unreserved fund balance for operations,” Egerstson said in the county proposal. “The proposed FY20 budget will not only meet established policy; it will exceed it, with a projected fund balance of 15.84%.

The board will host a public hearing

Young Life to host annual Golf Tournament

Shifa Teweri (Editor's note: This is weekly series highlighting members of Culpeper's Youth Council.

To join Culpeper Youth, go to www.culpeperyouth.org to apply.)

This weekend, I have the wonderful opportunity of going to AllVirginia choir, something I have been looking forward to achieving since my freshman year of high school. When I found out I got in, I couldn't contain my joy! After the initial bliss wore off, I looked back at how far I'd come over the years. All those hours of practicing, slaving over music, plunking out notes on the piano, all of it led to that moment. It leads to this weekend. I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for hard work, dedication, and a will power so strong it can push through anything. This is what motivates me to do better, the knowledge that what lies ahead will be worth all that effort. It's something I will carry throughout my life.

Culpeper Young Life is ready to hit the links.

The youth ministry will be hosting its annual golf tournament April 26 at Meadows Farm Golf Course beginning at 8 a.m.

According to Culpeper Young Life Leader Will Orr, there are two options for golfers. One is to commit to raising $500 and be able to golf all day. The other is to register for a traditional 18-hole tournament, with teams of four and captain’s choice, beginning at 1 p.m.

That costs $75 for an individual or $250 for a foursome.

To sign up for the tournament, visit www.culpeper.younglife.org. If a business would like to sponsor hole, that costs $250.

The annual golf tournament is one of two of Young Life’s biggest fundraisers, using the funds to pay for Orr’s salary, support and development of volunteers and the many programs the ministry offers.

In the high schools, Young Life has eight volunteer leaders, with another five in the middle schools. They also have a teen mom ministry, Young Lives, that adds another six volunteers.

Young Life hosts a club meeting on Mondays at the theater at Jewell Tone, the Jewell Box, and during the spring they host about 35 students.

“It’s a vibrant, cool setting for kids to hang out at,” Orr said.

This year Young Life also started its Capernaum Club for students with special needs, held the second and fourth Tuesday at Culpeper United Methodist Church.

“Jeff (Stables, former director of Culpeper Young Life) was really big on that and he was really big on removing barriers for anyone to attend,” Orr said of his late friend. “He was always talking about it and Capernaum exists all over the world and I had some friends that did it in their communities so we put out some feelers and it’s been really sweet.”

The group is led by eight volunteer leaders and they have between 1015 special needs students visit for meetings.

“This year is the first year we’ve had all of our ministries firing on all cylinders so there is extra cost in all of that,” Orr said. “It’s not like we’ve seen a massive influx of money. We’re trying to plan these events well so we can make sure we have the money it takes (to run all the programs.)

BIZ BIO Warrenton Dermatology hosts 'Fiesta of Savings' open house

By Jeff Say Culpeper Times Staff Writer One day wasn’t enough.

Warrenton Dermatology & Skin Therapy Center hosts a semi-annual open house - and this spring it will be for a whole week instead of just one evening.

The week-long “Fiesta of Savings” will run from April 8-12 from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. daily.

Drop by any time during their week-long “Fiesta of Savings” event to learn about the products and services they offer, and to take advantage of the best pricing of the year.

Dr. J.C. Caballero heads this thriving dermatology practice. “We are proud that Warrenton Dermatology has been serving Fauquier, Culpeper, Rappahannock and surrounding counties for 20 years, and that we provide a full-range of medical, surgical and cosmetic services,” Caballero said. “We like to invite people into our practice so they can learn more

about who we are and what we can do for them.” A different product line and service area will be highlighted each day of the open house, so check their schedule of events if there is something in particular that interests you; but the 20% discount and special offers are good all week long.

Karri Mize, Marketing & Client Services for Warrenton Dermatology & Skin Therapy Center, said that customers inundated the practice during the one-day event so they decided to see what would happen if they spread it out.

“What we end up doing is closing the office early and cramming a lot into a four-hour time block,” Mize said. “It’s a little hectic and I think people end up waiting in line a long time if they know what they already want to purchase. It’s grown, to the point where it’s a little hard to manage its size and its popularity.”

J.C. Caballero, MD receives “Club 500” Status for providing over 500 CoolSculpting procedures at Warrenton Dermatology & Skin Therapy Center.

Culpeper Times • April 4-10, 2019

➤ Biz Bio, from Page 4 most attention lately is CoolSculpting. It is the only FDA-cleared, non-surgical fat reduction treatment that uses controlled cooling to eliminate fat which is resistant to diet and exercise.

It is safe and effective for spot-treating areas where it is difficult to lose weight, like love handles, upper arms, tummy, inner thighs, etc. It works by applying controlled cooling to the area, which causes the freezing and subsequent death of fat cells (cryolipolysis). Your body then clears away the destroyed cells via normal body functions, and the cells are gone for good. Results are seen between 1 and 3 months post-treatment.

To date, millions of Coolsculpting treatments have been performed worldwide, and the results are proven, noticeable, and lasting. Warrenton Dermatology recently received “Club 500” recognition for having provided over 500 CoolSculpting treatments. Interesting fact: the body has a set number of fat cells which has been determined by the end of adolescence. After that time, the existing cells can enlarge or shrink as you gain or lose weight, but your body does not produce additional cells. So, if pockets of cells are removed or eliminated, the body will always have fewer fat cells, and

therefore fat, in that area.

CoolSculpting Specialist Tammy Golden noted, “This is why this technique is called “sculpting.” It is not about weight change; rather it is about re-shaping the body’s contour to smooth out lumps, bumps and excess volume in a particular area. The best candidates for this treatment are within 40 pounds of a healthy weight for their height.” Interested candidates have an hour-long consultation appointment with a specialist to evaluate their treatment goals and develop a customized plan to attain those goals.

Learn more about CoolSculpting and all of the products and services offered at Warrenton Dermatology at the week-long Fiesta of Savings spring open house event April 8-12, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.

Free non-alcoholic margaritas will be offered each day.

“Nothing says party like a margarita, we just thought let’s make it a big fiesta,” Mize said. “We thought it was something that would carry over the whole week and springboard into the Cinco de Mayo season.”

Take advantage of special offers, flash sales, and the best pricing of the year. Purchase at the event, then schedule your service at your convenience. For more information and a complete open house schedule of events, visit WarrentonDermatology. com.

War is hell, and U.S. Army Chief Warrant Officer 5 William Halevy lived it.

The retired U.S. Army officer recalled his stories of Vietnam and how it strengthened his faith in God during a ceremony to honor Vietnam War veterans and their families at the Culpeper National Cemetery March 29.

Matthew Priest, Director of Culpeper, Winchester, Staunton, and Balls Bluff National Cemeteries, said that 9 million veterans served during the war, with 2.7 million stationed in Vietnam. The Culpeper area alone lost 19 men during the war.

“We are doing what should have been done over 50 years ago, thanking and honoring our Vietnam veterans and their families for their service and sacrifice,” Priest said. “Culpeper National Cemetery and the Department of Veteran’s Affairs has partnered with the Vietnam War Commemoration to offer our gratitude to all those who served during the Vietnam War.” Priest said honoring the men and women that served was overdue, as many in the country protested the war and physically and mentally attacked the soldiers on their return home.

“What is worse than war is a nation that defiles its heroes,” Priest said. “Service members came home from Vietnam and they were spit on and called baby killers. Oftentimes they put their uniforms away and didn’t speak of their service. This undoubtedly left a scar on this nation.

“To all of our Vietnam veterans thank you for your service to this nation,” Priest said.

“Thank you for your continued dedication to our current veterans and thank you for loving your nation more than they loved you during that turmoil.”

Halevy, who retired from Army Aviation in January 2012 after a 40-plus year career in Army Aviation, spoke of experiences in Vietnam and the joy he feels in just being able to share his stories with his fellow veterans. Now retired, he helps with Veteran’s Affairs and hears similar stories during his visits.

“When we went to Vietnam, we realized we weren’t there to win a war - we were there to take care of one another,” Halevy said. “That’s what we did, we took care of one another.”

Halevy said that his cavalry squadron which consisted of 175 personnel - lost 40 men in the year he was there. He, and many like him, experienced unspeakable trauma while serving in Vietnam.

“I didn’t know what PTSD was when I was home, I couldn’t even rent a car from the airport because I wasn’t old enough,” Halevy said.

“We took care of our PTSD with alcohol, at least I did, and others with drugs. It was just a terrible time. It’s so great to have you all hear together to discuss our togetherness.”

He spoke of two stories that strengthened his faith in God and kept him alive during his time in Vietnam. The first one had those in the crowd with their mouths agape, as he recounted a harrowing tale.

“I’m in my little bird scouting,” Halevy recalled. “We were like dogs hunting rabbits in our aircraft. Two cobra gunships overhead and a chase ship with a rifle team in case we got shot down. I’m down working, they had pulled out all the ground troops. All of a sudden I hear ‘break break 19er, break break.’ I laid the aircraft over, got out of the area and a .51 caliber gun opened up on my gunships. I would have flown right into that .51 caliber machine gun hit. They called in the Air Force. We went back to get fuel and I said to my gun ‘boy, I’m glad ➤ See Veterans, Page 7

East Davis Street continues to evolve as Latchey moves, Chickpea Graphics moves in

By Jeff Say Culpeper Times Staff Writer The landscape of East Davis Street is changing once again.

Latchkey Mercantile is closing its storefront downtown and as of Feb. 20 officially moved its products to The Country Shoppes.

In its place, Chickpea Graphics will be taking over the location at 163 East Davis Street and is planning to open by April 15.

Brigitte Morrow, owner of Latchkey Mercantile, said it was a personal decision to move out of the store she’s occupied for the past five years.

“My dad will be 87 at the end of the month, and he’s getting to be a full time job,” Morrow said. “I don’t have to be there every day, I don’t need to worry about the tax stuff or sales, they take care of all of it.”

As soon as she knew she was going to move, she let Raygan Ketterer, owner of Chickpea Graphics know.

“Raygan’s mother is my best friend, so I’ve known her since she’s gotten out of college,” Morrow said. “I told her because she wanted to expand retail a little bit.”

It was a tough decision for Morrow, who has fallen in love with her customer base. Previously to opening Latchkey, she worked in the floral industry for more than 40 years - so having those personal connections is something she cherishes.

“I’m going to miss the customers terribly,” Morrow said. “It’s never a dull moment and

you get customers from everywhere. The way to know your customers is to hear their stories, it’s fun getting know people.”

She’s moved her shop into a 10x12 spot at Country Shoppes and reassures her loyal customers that they’ll still be able to purchase most of what she has to offer.

“I’m going to put a notebook in the booth so if they are looking for something they’ve seen in here, they can leave their name and number and we can find it,” Morrow said.

She said she’s heard from a lot of her regulars about how they’ll miss seeing her in her own shop.

“Most of them are pretty upset,” Morrow said. “Most of them are regulars out at the Country Shoppes but they like coming onto Davis Street.”

She stressed she’ll still do her top seller - the iconic latitude and longitude signs. She started doing those within six months of opening on East Davis and they have become extremely popular. She’ll also sell candles, just on a smaller scale.

Ketterer said she’s in the process of moving in and hopes to open by April 15.

“We’re going to make a lot of big changes,” Ketterer said. “We’re going to take the ceiling down, we’re going to redo the floor. We’re going to go from primitive to contemporary.”

Previously located in Water’s Place with Roque Castro for the last five years, Chickpea sells most of their items online and now will ➤ See Latchkey, Page 17

➤ Veterans, from Page 6 you guys saw that 51 pit and told me to break break.’ ‘We didn’t tell you to break break.’ Well I said, who did? ‘We don’t know.’ I quizzed everyone on that mission including my two crew members, nobody heard that break break 19er but me. Suddenly I realize I’m being looked after. I thank God for that. That’s what made me a believer and that’s why I’m thankful for being here today.”

Halevy told another story about scouting an NVA battalion in the DMZ. He grabbed his survival radio and took off with his crew to do visual reconnaissance on the edge of the DMZ, north of Fire Base Fuller. Activity on the ground indicated many troops were moving through the area, and he was in the middle of a right turn when he heard the distinctive sound of .51-caliber gun fire. Three rounds went through his engine, in his mind, the gauges slowed at half speed as he went into shock. He saw a clear area and put the tree into defoliated trees, crashing and rolling over onto the plane’s side. In a panic, his crew clambered to get out and they started up the hill, toward the East as they had not gone that way - hoping there would be no NVA troops there.

As they went up the hillside, they discovered a hulk of an old abandoned Marine CH-34. His crew thought it was their aircraft and they were going around in circles, so he knew they were in shock. He heard aircraft coming overhead, so he fired his pin flair - only to have his

own team fire on them.

“They finally saw me, and I’m trying to talk to them on my survival radio and guess what, it didn’t work,” Halevy said. “I never flew another flight in my life without checking my survival radio and I preached that in every briefing as a safety officer.”

They finally got on the hilltop and secured it, but couldn’t get a Huey in to rescue them because of the amount of defoliated trees. All the while 600-pound bombs and napalm fell all around them. It was hell. Three hours they endured when Halevy turned to an unconventional prayer.

“I’m thinking we’re done,” Halevy said. “I look up and say ‘Good Lord, you get me out of here and I’ll do anything.’ And it wasn’t threefour minutes later that my second team scout had gone back and dropped his team off and came back and got us. He pulled us out of there.

I was fortunate, I only got cut up. Cut up enough to earn the Purple Heart. I wasn’t refusing the Purple Heart after that trip, let me tell ya. That made me a believer. Those two incidents made me a believer in the Good Lord. That testimony has kept me going all my life.”

It’s also helped him work with veterans, helping them navigate through the VA after his retirement.

Following Halevy’s speech, Don Port of the Piedmont Area VVA Chapter 752 laid a wreath in memory of the fallen and the Liberty High School JROTC pinned Vietnam Veterans and thanked them for their service.

HISTORY The tale of Edith 'Jack' Stearns-Gray ZANN’S PLACE Zann Nelson

Worthy of knowing are the vast numbers of women who called Culpeper home, were committed to improving the quality of life in their own community and in many respects became an inspiration to

others.

Two striking women come to mind. They were from very different backgrounds but possessed strikingly similar characteristics: determination, resilience, ingenuity, and conviction of spirit.

Let me introduce the older of the two, Edith “Jack” Stearns-Gray.

Born in 1891 to a family originally from Vermont, but had established roots in Richmond, Virginia long before Edith was born. “Jack” as

she preferred to be called grew up in Brandy Station at the lovely, historic and prosperous estate known as Farley.

“Jack” was an undaunted free spirit, dining with Teddy Roosevelt at the White House; loving horses and refusing to ride side saddle but ever mindful of her responsibility to the community in which she lived. She was a voice for women’s rights and helped steer the suffrage movement in Culpeper. But it was her unquenchable quest for adventure specifically the new age idea of flying that she is most remembered.

It was no place for a woman, but Jack was determined and rarely grasped the meaning of the word “no.”

They tell a delightful story about Jack and her first flying adventure.

By 1912, she had already caught the “flying” bug and while in NY she approached a fellow by the name of George Gray, trained as an aviator in

the Wright Brothers School of flying.

He was in town with an air show when she called him and offered him $50 to take her for a ride. He refused, saying it was too dangerous for a woman and that was not nearly enough money. Jack figured it was the woman thing; she dressed in a masculine-looking riding habit, showed up at the airfield and wrote Gray a check for $50. Later that afternoon she was setting new records as the first woman to fly over the Adirondacks.

George Gray never cashed the check and in 1913, they were married.

She became the first woman from Virginia to ride in an airplane and the first to take off in an airplane from Virginia soil.

Jack had two loves, her aviator husband George Gray and flying.

Once married, they became a barn storming duo performing up and down the East Coast in a plane

named “Up.” They rarely missed an opportunity to treat Culpeper to their theatrical shows and at one such event; the citizens of Culpeper presented their “air woman” with a splendid silver cup.

WWI called George to serve as one of the few trained aviation technicians and Jack returned to Culpeper working for the Red Cross for several years.

Following the war years, George became an aeronautical engineer and airplane salesman and Jack published her memoirs of the first days of aviation. She called her book, “Up,” A True Story of Aviation.

Until next week, be well.

History

Culpeper Times • April 4-10, 2019

Revolutionary War Southern Campaign with the Culpeper Connections CHARLES JAMESON

On Feb. 16, I presented a wreath for the Culpeper Minutemen at one of the most important events of the Revolutionary War, the 238th Anniversary of the Crossing of the Dan in South Boston, Va.. Through research, I have gained more respect for General Nathaniel Greene, General Edward Stevens of Culpeper and my direct ancestor David Jameson in regards to the southern campaign.

Let’s start here. After the Battle of Saratoga, Horatio Gates was appointed Commander of the Southern Army. He soon was defeated by the British Army under Lt. Gen. Lord Charles Cornwallis at the Battle of Camden in S.C.. George Washington chose Nathaniel Greene to replace Gates. What Greene found when he reached Charlotte, N.C. was an Army in wretched condition. He realized he could not have a head on battle with

History

the British. He would split his Army in 2 forces,use guerilla warfare tactics, attempt to draw the British away from their source of supplies and wear them down.

Half of Greene’s Army under the command of Daniel Morgan fought Lt. Colonel Banastre Tarleton at Cowpens S.C. Morgan instructed the militia to skirmish and after firing 2 rounds to fall back. The British mistook this repositioning as a rout and ran into an unexpected volley of concentrated rifle fire coupled with a cavalry charge, followed by the return of the militia.

Tarleton escaped, but British losses were staggering with 90% either killed, wounded or captured. Learning of this loss Lord Cornwallis swore he would regain his prisoners, “no matter what the cost.”

Totally enraged by the loss at Cowpens, Cornwallis and Tarleton began to chase the Americans and their hundreds of British prisoners (General Stevens, David Jameson and the Va. Militia were with this contingent).

Greene and Morgan maneuvered north with the British trailing close behind.

Greene’s strategy was to avoid battle

and draw the British forces further away from their supply lines. Being obsessed with catching the Americans, Cornwallis burned most of his army’s supply wagons and destroyed all the soldier’s daily rations of brandy.

While stopped at Guilford CH (Greensboro N.C.) Greene asked his officers whether it was best to end the retreat and confront the British there or to race to the Dan. It was decided to go into Va. to get additional recruits and supplies. In anticipation of the Dan Crossing, military engineer Colonel Thaddeus Kosciuszko was sent ahead to build earthworks (defenses) and Lt. Edward Carrington was dispatched to gather boats.

Greene again split his army, sending 700 men away from his main force as decoys toward the upper fords (shallow places in a body of water where one can cross by walking) of the Dan River upstream from Danville. The main, slower moving Army with artillery and supply wagons, took the shorter route and crossed the swollen Dan on Feb.14,1781 with boats near Boyd’s Ferry (South Boston). As the last Americans finished crossing the river,

the British troops arrived. Without boats they were unable to cross. Greene had won the race to the Dan. As described in his pension files, David Jameson volunteered for 6 month duty in Nov. of 1780. David, at this time, was a Lt.. Orders from General Greene asking General Stevens to deploy 1 officer and 3 privates (David being the officer) to explore the Yadkin from the ford that they had passed the prior day up as high as Hughes Creek.

The General also wanted to know about transportation from the Yadkin to the Dan and on to the Catawba River. David was to check the depths of waters, the current, the rocks and every other obstruction that may impede the business of transportation. David was dispatched about the 10th day of December and was told to report back to Gen. Greene in late Jan. at a camp called Cheraw in S.C. From David Jameson’s records the planning and ‘the swollen river saved them from a confounded drubbing”. Possibly, General Greene’s foresight and Culpeper’s General Stevens plan with Jameson’s exploration allowed the Patriots to live and fight another day.

Local News

Gracie, Jakie and Baby Zeke Gracie, a distant cousin of mine, is a black and white who looks like she needs to grow into her ears. At the Orphanage (Animal Shelter) where she was raised, she was known for her sass and hiss although she somehow transformed herself into “adorable and charming” long enough to get adopted.

Once in her new home she made it her immediate goal to rule the roost.

She never doubted that the sun rose and set when she told it to. And she meant to convince her humans of this fundamental truth. Imagine her surprise when they went back to the Orphanage and brought home another black and white to be her playmate. Not at all what she had in mind!

Gracie’s playmate was named Jakey, and he viewed his new home as a dream location—peaceful and quiet with a large front window for watching dogs, cars, and bicycles go by.

When Gracie first joined him at the window, he thought she shared his love for peace and quiet. But in reality, she was only sizing him up for projects she had on her “to do” list. When she approached him with her first project, his response was a disinterested yawn.

Her response to his response was a wild dance of swats and hisses.

Mercy, he reasoned, she has been into the catnip, but discovering none in the house, he ambled off to his secret hiding place for a snooze. And so it was with Jakey and Gracie until the time Baby Zeke was born and came home from the hospital. Suddenly things changed, and Gracie and Jakey quickly put their differences aside to present a united front against the intruder.

It was hard to decide what irritated

CALLY TALES Cally

them most, having their sleep disturbed in the wee hours of the morning, having their meals delayed, or having to step carefully and slowly into a loaded litter box that wasn’t scooped like it used to be.

Their humans said, “Sorry,” and looked “Sorry,” and sounded “Sorry,” but at the end of the day, Gracie and Jakey felt unloved and under-appreciated.

By unanimous vote they wanted the newcomer sent packing. They assumed he came from the same Orphanage they had come from and was returnable.

Precious, Senior Cat Advisor to The World At Large, weighted in at this point. She lived across the street and knew all about Baby Zeke. She also knew the pecking order in households.

She summoned the miffed kittens and laid down the law. “Listen up,” she commanded. “You need to get over it and get on with it. Life is short.” Lowering her voice, she concluded sternly, “And don’t lay a paw on him, or your life will be shorter.” Precious was never one to mince words.

Jakey and Gracie are trying to “get over it” and “get on with it.” This is particularly hard for Gracie because Lap Time with the Mama human used to be hers exclusively. Now Baby Zeke is there. It feels like a time-share. Very unsettling. And Jakey? Well, now that Baby Zeke is on the floor and picking up speed every day, Jakey needs to watch where he steps to avoid collisions. Gone are the days of his not-a-care-in-theworld strolls. Very unsettling. I’ll tell you more when I know more.

But my next story is about the secrets of Pippin and Scooter. Amazing secrets.

These are true stories about real cats. I only write the facts as they are given to me. My Widow checks the grammar. Our email is sallyandcally@gmail.com if you have questions or stories.

FILM• “Pre-Code Double Feature “Finishing School”(RKO, 1934) The scandalous goings-on in an uppercrust private school for young women is the setting for this pre-Code school girl dramedy, co-directed (with George Nichols Jr.) by screenwriter Wanda Tuchock (“Hallelujah!,” “Bed of Roses,” “Susan Lenox Her Fall and Rise”). When socialite Virginia Radcliffe (Frances Dee) arrives at Crockett Hall, she's ready to

follow the institution's stringent code of ladylike conduct. But her worldly new roommate, Pony Ferris (Ginger Rogers), has other ideas. Before Virginia knows it, Pony is leading her new friend along a perilous path towards smoking, drinking, boys and nights out in New York. Tuchock was only the second woman, together with Dorothy Arzner, to be credited as a director on a Hollywood movie in the 1930s. 35mm film print preserved in 2017 by the Packard Campus Film Preservation Lab. 73 min.

“Fashions of 1934”(Warner Bros., 1934) Most notable for mischievously riding the edge of the Motion Picture Production Code, “Fashions of 1934,” directed by William Dieterle, features a lot of naughtiness and a trio of lovably unethical lead characters.

William Powell plays Sherwood Nash, a charming rascal who ropes Bette Davis' amateur dress designer into a scheme for bootlegging top Parisian fashions for high prices. In fact, the Busby Berkeley dance number comes as somewhat of a surprise, but when it does appear as an elaborate cog in Nash's complex ostrich-feather racket, "Spin a Little Web of Dreams" twists into delectable Berkeley decadence, with dancers wearing feather fans, playing living harps and sailing atop an undulating, glistening faux sea. His most astonishing flourish: overhead shots of the plumed dancers forming a beautiful, feathery flower, which opens and closes as if photographed in time-lapse. 35mm film print preserved in 2016 by the Packard Campus Film Preservation Lab. 78 min. Free, at the Library of Congress Packard Campus Theater located at 19053 Mt. Pony Rd. in Culpeper, VA. No reservations taken. 7:30 p.m.

Duff commands respect, a stand that angers his white employers and frightens his father-in-law. Directed by Michael Roemer, the drama features a largely black cast in a story that transcends race and looks at issues of class and gender.

In 1964, “Nothing But a Man” won the San Giorgio Prize at the Venice Film Festival, awarded to films considered especially important for the progress of civilization. The film was named to the National Film Registry in 1993. 35mm film print preserved by the Library of Congress Film Preservation Lab in 2012 from original elements donated to us by director Michael Roemer. 95 min.

VIEWS The Real Crime…

Imagine if you will, that a federal prosecutor announced that they were going to investigate you for suspected crimes. As part of that investigation, they dived into every aspect of your life, including your friends, co-workers, and family.

Everything in your life was considered fair game.

Picture a prosecutor finding out that some of your colleagues had broken laws - not related to the crime he was looking into, but other laws. They get prosecuted for those crimes because they are associates of yours. Imagine that this investigation was public, on the news every night, and that outright lies are told by the media about the investigation, smearing your reputation.

You are mocked nightly by comedians.

This investigation drags on for almost two years, and after all of that, the prosecutor finds there just isn't enough evidence that the crimes even happened in the first place. Then imagine that a ruling body of government said, "That wasn't enough…we are going to continue to investigate until we find something."

Welcome to the America under the Democrat-controlled House.

Starting with the Kavanugh confirmations, we now live in a country where guilt is presumed by those in power and the media tells us what and how we are supposed to think and act. Accusations are to carry the same weight of evidence.

Was the investigation needed in the

PARDOE’S PERSPECTIVE

BLAINE PARDOE

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Thank you for making SAFE Mardi Gras event a success Benefiting SAFE (Services to Abused Families), the Mardi Gras event held on March 2nd at The Refinery netted $25,000 to be used in the renovation & repair of SAFE's second shelter! Nearly 200 tickets were sold, 20 sponsorships were sold, 10 restaurants participated and 45 silent auction items were donated!

None of this would have been possible without the overwhelming generosity of the communities in the 5 counties served by SAFECulpeper, Fauquier, Rappahannock, Orange & Madison.

SAFE wishes to thank the

first place? Think about it this way, the presumption in the media and minds of Democrats is that a candidate for President of the United States actively conspired with a foreign government to bring about that candidate's election.

Tom Clancy couldn't have cooked up that plot. The Russians DID attempt to interfere with our elections. That was worth exploring to prevent it from happening again. Investigating the President as a Russian operative? I write fiction and this seems so farfetched I couldn't pitch this idea as a thriller.

The media convicted him of treason before he was sworn in. Elements from within the government conspired to bring his presidency down. When he called out this conspiracy, he was mocked and called a liar. As it turns out, as we emerge from the haze of this investigation - the President was right.

The media and the "deep state" had conspired to negate our votes and topple his administration. That is the real crime here.

I watched the news outlets when the Mueller Report summary was sent to Congress. CNN proved almost humorous. There was an air of, "He has to be guilty, look at all the evidence we presented our viewers." Behold the media's perception of their role… judge and jury. Their reaction - "He's still being investigated in southern New York…" No apologies for the two years of pure slander and libel that were leveled at the President. No admission of, "we got it wrong and we're sorry American people."

Never in the history of this country have I heard and read such over the fact that our President is NOT a Russian

operative with the mainstream media.

This should have been a moment where we all sighed in relief that what many of us held true, was confirmed. Instead there were renewed calls to dig deeper into Trump's business holdings and his family.

While we should all be rejoicing with the confirmation that the President is not a deep mole for a foreign government, the reality is his enemies are not satisfied. They want impeachment. They crave overturning the vote of the American people.

I suspect there will be a shift, gradual and begrudgingly, away from prosecuting him. Instead they will go back to labeling him as a racist, a misogynist, anti-LGBT, etc. Simply put, they desire to sway voters in 2020. Ultimately that is what this whole sordid investigation was about. That, and the bitterness that her-highness Hillary was not ordained as our rightful ruler. They still have not come to grips with the reality that Trump did not steal the presidency from Hillary, the American people did.

The man - his family and friends - and the nation, have been through enough. It is time for us to move on.

Sorry media and late-night comedians, you were all wrong. Not a single one of you had the integrity or honor to admit you were wrong and apologize for this travesty. None admitted they misled us. None admitted they were part of a concerted effort to overthrow the election. Shame!

As we bring this to closure, I leave you with one chilling thought. A government that will do this to its own leaders can and will do it to its other citizens at some point. None of us is truly safe.

CCSO makes drug bust after domestic incident ➤ Darnell Carter faces 15 counts including drug manufacturing, possession charges Contributed report It took the sharp eyes of a motorist’s son to see something was terribly wrong on Mount Zion Church Road the night of March 31.

Upon arrival Deputies Spicer and Carter did not find a body in the ditch, but they did find a badly beaten woman in a nearby house on Black Oak Drive, two scared children and in the process made perhaps the largest Culpeper ➤ See Drugs, Page 17

➤ Drugs, from Page 16 County drug bust in recent memory -- to include $100,362.64 in cash.

“This is the largest individual seizure of U.S. currency in the history of our Sheriff’s Office. I’m glad the mother and children are ok,” Sheriff Scott Jenkins said.

Darnell Carter, 33, now faces 15 charges and is being held without bond as a result of the March 31April 1 incident. He is charged with possession and manufacturing of a controlled substance, assault on a law enforcement officer, distribution of marijuana, three counts of possession of a gun with drugs, three counts of possession of a gun by a non-violent felon, two counts of abuse and neglect of a child with reckless disregard for the life of the child, abduction by force, strangulation of another and assault on a family member.

When Deputy Carter could not find the body he called the motorist for a description of the woman seen in the ditch. With that description Deputies Carter, Spicer and Kerns went to the 17000 block of Black Oak Drive and talked to the bleeding and bruised Christina Torrez. She told deputies she had been held in the home against her will, that she had been beaten and choked. She also said her children ages seven and nine were in the home.

At the front door of the house Dep-

uty Kerns was met by two aggressive dogs and then by Darnell Carter.

During a welfare check of the home the deputies found what appeared to be a white powdery substance on an electronic scale. After securing the children and arresting Carter for domestic assault Deputies searched Carter as part of the arrest process. During the search Spicer found a rolled bill with a white powdery substance on it as well as a large roll of cash. With those facts in hand the deputies obtained a search warrant for the house.

With the help of Deputy Kerns and his K9 drug dog Karma, Culpeper deputies found a half pound of crack, one half ounce. of marijuana, cash, three firearms, and two ballistic vests.

Also found in the home were items valued at approximately $14,140.00.

The items seized in that valuation were shoes, a television, and computer equipment, a backpack filled with loaded magazines, other multiple rifle magazines, pistol magazines, and hundreds of rounds of ammunition.

During the arrest suspect Carter fought and kicked Deputy Carter (no relation) who sustained non-life threatening injuries during the scuffle.

Deputies called Child Protective Services and the children were removed from the scene with the consent of the mother.

Raygan Ketterer shows off a shirt she will sell at her shop on E. Davis. ➤ Latchkey, from Page 7 offer those same products inside the shop. She personally designs almost all of her own products - from T-shirts, to mugs, to bags and customized song lyrics.

“Everything in here will be designed by me,” Ketterer said.

She said that there has been a lot of requests for her to open her own store over the years.

“We’ve had a lot of people come in and people who are local come in and pick up their order,” she said. “We’ve had a lot of people asking why we don’t have a retail space. We’ve done a couple pop ups down there, but it’s really hard to get foot traffic off Davis Street.”

The spot was sought after so Ketterer is happy to be able to set up shop there.

The 800-square foot space will be split half for display and half for production.

“Pretty much anything we can put our designs on, we’ll try at least once,” Ketterer said.

She expects the hours to be Tuesday through Sunday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. with Monday being an off day for production purposes. She admits that being a small business owner is a 24/7 gig.

“It’s exhausting,” Ketterer said. “A traditional retail owner they are ordering their stuff from someone else, I’m designing, producing and then selling my own things.”

This week’s message is about facing difficulties Kara Cutro with an open heart. The 10 of Swords shows us that something has come to a completion, usually something difficult or possibly painful, although that is not always the case. The presence of this card could just be trying to tell us, in a rather overdramatized fashion, that a situation or phase of our lives is dead. Over.

Capeesh? Kind of like, “What do I need to show you to convince you that it’s time to accept that this is done and that it’s time to move forward?” The encouraging piece to all of this is that the worst is behind us when the 10 of Swords shows up. A new day is dawning.

I just love how the Queen of Cups faces the scene depicted in the 10 of Swords with love, warmth, and compassion. She encourages us to stay open hearted as we face this situation, advising us to remain gentle with ourselves and others. Whatever challenges or endings we may be facing, we can do so with grace and trust. Look deeply into whatever situations are arising and know that you are capable of unearthing a treasure from within yourself that will serve the greater good.

The Queen of Cups is deeply psychic, so trust your gut.
