Historic building changes hands

The former Groner’s Variety Store has sold.

You know the build-ing. It’s visible from Emory Road just across the rail-road tracks.

We found Margaret Wat-son who goes back quite a ways with the building but not all the way. It was built sometime in the 1920s, she guesses, and at one time her dad owned it.

Margaret fi rst knew the building as Cooper’s Store, owned and operated by Roy Cooper. “His wife and her sister kept that store clean,” said Margaret. “It may not have made money, but it sure was clean.”

Margaret’s dad, A.H. Rhodes, and four others owned the Groner’s gro-cery store on the opposite corner. Both stores had gas pumps and would occasion-ally have gas wars. “We kept those pumps going. Coo-per would cut his price by a penny and dad would cut his by two cents. Back and forth, we’d have gas at 13 or 14 cents per gallon.”

When Cooper’s closed, the building became a theatre, specializing in Westerns. Margaret recalls the farm hands from Broadacres com-ing on Saturday nights. From next door she could hear their boots stomping on the wooden fl oors when they got excited. The men would come

into Groner’s and buy food, such as a quart and a half of iced tea.

Laura Bailey said her grandmother, Myrtle Gill, would make popcorn which Laura’s dad, Allan, would sell at the theatre.

Next came the Groner Va-riety Store, where Margaret worked as a young woman. “My dad would go to market every Tuesday and Friday to buy supplies,” she recalls. “Then my mom and Dorothy Hirschfi eld would go. Then they started sending me.”

Margaret actually ran Groner’s for a year after her dad’s death. Then her brother, Alvin Rhodes, sold the family store downtown and came back. “I never had a break-in, but when Alvin came back they broke in the next week,” she said.

“The neighbor called me and we called the Sheriff’s Offi ce. They had deputies in the area that drove up and saw the burglars. They had the safe and were dragging it across the railroad tracks and down toward the creek.

“When they tried to car-ry the safe across Beaver Creek, it fell in. The depu-ties caught the burglars and we called Fountain City

p.m. and dinner at 6. The business meeting will start at 7 p.m. Dinner is $20, annual dues are $7 and do-nations to the scholarship fund are welcomed. Reser-vations are due March 30.

Entertainment will be by Judy Morris of the Powell Playhouse (PHS Class of ’78). Golden Grads from the Class of ’62 will be recognized, along with the oldest gradu-ate in attendance and the one who has traveled the farthest.

Wrecker Service. They came out the next day, fi shed the safe out of the creek and brought it back to the store.

“This was about 1965 or ’66,” Margaret said. The variety store closed “about 20 years ago, maybe a little more.”

All we’ve got to say is for an almost 100-year-old build-ing, it’s looking pretty good.

Bailey said it sold for $70,000. “They got a steal.”

■ Lunch with ClarkThis Tuesday, March 13,

I’ll be at Jubilee Banquet Fa-cility at noon for the PBPA. Stop by and chat if you can.

Last week at Bojangles’ was great fun. There were

several kids inside the store, because school was out for teacher in-service, but I talk-ed mostly with Buddy Bur-khardt, sign guy. Didn’t even meet the restaurant manager.

Here’s my favorite lunch: a grilled chicken salad with a biscuit on the side and honey mustard dressing. It will stick to your ribs, and it tastes good too. Cannot vouch for the calorie count.

Cain delivers straw poll vote to Gingrich

By Betty BeanThe Tennessee Conservative Union’s annual Reagan

Day Dinner was the Herman Cain Show, and that was a good thing for Newt Gingrich and a bad thing for Mitt Romney. The ebullient Cain, who is campaigning for Gingrich, was a big hit with the conservative crowd and Gingrich was so delighted by the results of the straw poll that he bragged about it to George Stephanopoulos the next morning.

Gingrich won with 37.96 percent of the vote. His near-est competitor, Rick Santorum, polled 33.8 percent; Ron Paul got 11.11 percent, edging out Romney, who had 10.65 percent, beating out 6.48 for Uncommitted.

TCU chair Lloyd Daugherty didn’t have much sympathy for the putative GOP frontrunner, who had scant repre-sentation at the event.

“The old Reagan coalition is not comfortable with Mitt Romney, and if he expects our vote in November, his camp should have been active in reaching out to us. Conserva-tives are tired of being taken for granted,” Daugherty said.

Romney missed some good, old-fashioned Southern eats by snubbing the dinner – collard greens, grits, fried catfi sh, hominy, skillet-fried okra, mac and cheese, pulled pork, fried chicken and blackberry cobbler. Daugherty was well pleased that his “No grilled chicken, no marga-rine” instruction was followed to the letter.

He also pronounced the program “A unique conserva-tive event for 2012. There was no mention of homosexual-ity, nothing about birth control,” he said.

Finally, Stacey Campfi eld, former statewide co-chair of the Gingrich campaign, got a lukewarm reception from all but his hardcore followers in his fi rst public appearance since switching his allegiance to Santorum.

By Betty BeanWho: The St. Paul BakersWhat: “Desserts to Go” Where: St. Paul United

Methodist Church, 4014 Garden Drive.

When: Noon to 3 p.m., Sunday, March 25.

Why: to help a friend in need.

Every good baker has a specialty, and the St. Paul Bakers, all members of the Joy Sunday School Class, are known throughout Fountain City for having a bunch of them. The good-ies will be for sale Sunday, March 25 – “Desserts to Go” to help a friend in need.

“Everybody has their specialty,” Janice Grant said. “Fudge pie, carrot cake, oatmeal cookies. Ev-erybody’s going to bake up their specialty – things that will freeze well – so that people can get their desserts for Easter. The whole idea is to help a dear friend to us all,” said Grant.

Linda Martin

Cooking up some help for a friend“She’s been an inspira-

tion to everybody, and we want to help the family with their medical expenses. This has been exhausting to them in every way.”

The friend is Linda Mountain Martin, lifelong Fountain Citian, Central High School Class of 1968 graduate and Miss Knox-ville 1969. Martin, a breast cancer survivor since 2006, lives next door to St. Paul with her husband, Buddy, and sons Mike and Dylan. She was the church secre-tary for 11 years until she was forced to quit her job in 2010 after she was stricken with a mysterious blood condition. At fi rst, her doc-tors suspected leukemia.

“I had symptoms that pointed that way, but the blood analysis never matched up to any known blood cancer,” she said. “Since it remains undiag-nosable, there is no cure. It’s currently being treated with

steroids, which keep me from having to have con-stant transfusions.”

The demands of trying to treat an illness that cannot be diagnosed has forced the formerly two-income family to get by on one salary while the bills pile up. Linda Mar-tin has gotten three medi-cal opinions – one from a local oncologist, one from Vanderbilt and most recent-ly one from Mayo Cinic.

“All of them feel that this is some sort of pre-cancerous blood condition, but the prognosis is good in

this way – they think this will defi nitely develop into something like myeloma, and that is quite treatable. So my latest visit to Mayo was good news for me after 13 months of not knowing whether there will be a di-agnosis or a cure. I consider what’s happened over the past year to be a tremendous blessing. It’s changed the way I look at life, changed my priorities and my rela-tionship with Jesus.

“What I’ve learned is, you’re never, ever alone, and I treasure the prayers of ev-ery person who’s prayed for me.”

The St. Paul Bakers will have a complete list of the desserts they plan to make and the prices within the next week. Meanwhile, any-one who wants to make a donation can send a check to: St. Paul United Meth-odist Church, 4014 Garden Drive, Knoxville TN 37918.

Republican wings collideLast Tuesday’s Tennessee

presidential primary results showed that big name en-dorsements do not always work. Santorum and Gin-grich combined for more than 60 percent of the total GOP vote despite the Repub-lican fi nancial establishment and many public fi gures openly backing Romney.

Santorum barely cam-paigned in Tennessee and yet he captured the largest number of votes. Had Rom-ney spent more time in the state, it is possible he could have increased his margin. I doubt if a year ago many Tennessee Republicans had even heard of Rick Santo-rum, let alone decided to vote for him. But he won and that keeps him in the contest for a while longer.

Gov. Bill Haslam’s Knox-ville visit for Romney cer-tainly changed some votes here as Santorum led sub-stantially in early voting but the actual election day voting became almost a tos-sup between Santorum and Romney.

Clearly, there are several wings within today’s state-wide Republican party. One backs the establishment (Romney) and then there is a majority which is more conservative and voted for their personal favorite more than they voted for the can-didate they thought had the best chance to defeat Presi-dent Obama.

Haslam was able to bridge the two wings in his 2010 election for governor, but the coalition did not hold for Romney.

However, the good news for Romney, who still re-mains the solid favorite to be the GOP presidential nominee after the Tampa convention, is that Tennes-seans voting for Gingrich, Santorum and possibly Ron

Paul last week will still vote for Romney over Obama in November and Tennessee will be a strong state for Romney.

■ In mid-February, the under-reported city pension task force chaired by Bob Cross reported its fi ndings to the mayor and City Council. If Mayor Rog-ero and Council wanted a road map to pension re-form, the task force did not provide it. They made no serious recommendations. They did say the current system is not sustainable. They ducked and could not agree on proposals. Too bad.

■ Now Rogero must work on her own to make se-rious recommendations to council for them to approve or disapprove as recom-mendations to the voters in the November general elec-tion. She has picked deputy mayors Bill Lyons and Ed-die Mannis to lead the ef-fort. The people who will be directly impacted will be persons not yet hired as city employees. Current em-

ployees might be impacted on the level of their contri-bution. Retired employees appear to be protected from any changes which would diminish their benefi ts.

■ There are several options Rogero can con-sider. She must have a de-cision to City Council by mid-June which coincides with council’s vote on her budget. This will be a test of her leadership to solve an inherited problem. I predict she will rise to the occasion. However, the easy part may be getting City Council to approve it to go to the voters. The hard part will be getting voters to vote for reform in the November general election.

■ The retirement of Speaker Jimmy Naifeh is not a surprise given redis-tricting and the passage of time, but it marks the end of another era in Tennessee politics. Naifeh’s legislative pension, based on 38 years service, will be $36,000 a year ($3,000 a month) which is more than a cur-rent legislator makes in ac-tual salary. Time moves on.

Lessons from the electionShirley Underwood (also known as Aunt Shirley) is at

heart a teacher. So after her nephew Conley lost a close election to Mike McMillan last Tuesday, Aunt Shirley sent a memo to his supporters asking what each had learned. I’ve not seen the results, but the question got me to think-ing.

Pat Summitt often says her teams learn more from los-ing than from winning. That’s certainly true with cam-paigns. Here are Clark’s rules:

■ It is not negative campaigning to compare your posi-tions with your opponent’s. Unless you lie.

■ Politics is a blood sport. Those who don’t like blood should just teach political science.

■ Don’t burn bridges. Today’s foes may be tomorrow’s allies.

■ Hire Phyllis Severance. She’s managed campaigns for candidates outstanding and less so but she fi nds a way to win.

■ If you’ve got some lead time, change your last name to four or fi ve charac-ters beginning with A, B or C. Is it coincidence that the top vote getters in each race were fi rst on the ballot? Bal-lard over Whitehead; Armstrong over Jarret; Harris over Oster; Carson over Davis and McMillan over Underwood. That’s 100 percent.

In school board District 3, Gina Oster and Doug Har-ris will return for an August runoff. Thanks to candidate Bobby Edington, no one got 50 percent plus 1. In unoffi cial results, Harris fell 22 votes shy of the magic number.

The re-election of Karen Carson is good news for Su-perintendent Dr. Jim McIntyre. There is opposition to him on the board, but the mutters will be muted until some-body counts to fi ve. Carson’s win messes with that math.

I am from the group that thought the end of Bruce Pearl was the end of Tennes-see basketball as we had come to know and love it.

We were right.What we now have is very different.

There is less carnival atmosphere and more emphasis on basics, far more empha-

sis on de-fense and toug hne ss, p h y s i c a l and mental. There are not many quips. There is more dis-

cipline. Cuonzo Martin has captured my un-

divided attention. The man can coach. It took awhile but the team accepted his principles and became more like him. There were no cartwheels and fewer dis-co strobes but you could see and feel the fierce desire to win.

My first inclination is to say Cameron Tatum led the remarkable transition. But so did Jeronne Maymon. And Trea Golden. And Skylar McBee. And Jordan McRae.

Jarnell Stokes was the prize apple that dropped from a tree and filled the basket. The convergence of strange circumstanc-es, high school ineligibility, an available scholarship and an obvious opportunity, changed several lives.

I’m not sure Tennessee basketball has been previously blessed with such a mir-acle. Stokes brought a lot, grew a lot, did a lot and helped others do what they did.

There are so many pleasant memo-ries. There was the Yemi outburst, an un-forgettable evening by Swiperboy, Josh Richardson’s improvement and surges of energy and rebounds by Dwight Miller.

McBee could always shoot but effort made him into a very good defender. McRae discovered there are two ends to the f loor. Golden eventually realized his performances had the power to deter-mine outcomes.

Maymon was a powerful force, day af-ter day after day, the MVV. Ironic that he achieved excellence doing exactly what Marquette wanted him to do before he transferred.

Kenny Hall’s fall from grace was three ways hurtful – team, self and those who care.

The Tatum story is about coaching

genius. Despite offensive inconsisten-cies, Martin kept the fifth-year senior in

the start-ing lineup because he played “the right way.”

Cameron worked on defense, hit the boards, g e n e r a l l y p r o t e c t e d the ball and looked in earnest for the open man.

T a t u m understood.

“ H a v i n g Coach Mar-tin stand by

me like he did, to keep having confidence that I could help this team, that was huge for me.”

Golden’s inconsistency required far more instruction but Martin never gave up on the sophomore guard. The coach was rewarded with great effort and clutch points.

These Volunteers exceeded expecta-tions because expectations were errone-ously hammered down. The Vols were never 11th in SEC talent but they certainly weren’t second, even after Stokes arrived.

What they were was uncertain. New coach, new system, new culture, new ap-proach – change forced a learning period. It was tedious. The team was very good in Hawaii and awful at other times. Think Athens and the AP evening.

The Vols must have been very confus-ing for opponents. Sometimes they had more turnovers than goals. They were sometimes surprisingly effective. That they developed individually and collec-tively is coaching.

The will to compete, the desire to win, was thrilling. The dramatic transforma-tion was historic, maybe the best I have seen.

Cuonzo Martin came with a plan. He says it worked sooner than expected. He can coach. We’ll check him later as a re-cruiter. Marvin West invites reader response. His address is west-

The Metropolitan Plan-ning Commission’s new historic preservation offi -cer Kaye Graybeal told the Council of West Knox Coun-ty Homeowners that she is aware of complaints that her offi ce doesn’t pay enough at-tention to Knox County out-side the city limits.

She’s only been on the job since Jan. 2, but she says she’s working to change that perception and will be look-ing to assist projects like preserving the Lowe’s Ferry birthplace of David Glasgow Farragut, the fi rst admiral of the United States Navy. She has also visited Historic Con-cord Village, the only West Knox County district listed on the National Register of Historic Places. She believes that a case can be made for adding the Farragut birth-place to the list, as well.

“The National Register includes not just buildings, but sites, too. Has the prop-erty made signifi cant con-tributions to broad patterns of history? Is it associated with a signifi cant person? Does it have distinctive ar-chitecture? Is it signifi cant under archaeology? If noth-ing else, the piece of land that’s still public – the road, the ferry landing – are sig-nifi cant to (the history of) transportation. What does it tell us about the way trans-portation was conducted in that era?

“I think there is a good case there.”

Graybeal said she is aware of the property at 9320 Kingston Pike, where a mid-19th century federal style house known as the Kennedy/Walker/Baker/Sherrill has been allowed to deteriorate. The house is inside the city and is un-der an H1 (historic) overlay, which means that whatever zoning is in place stays in place with the requirement of a design review. The city’s

Demolition by Neglect ordi-nance might also come into play, she said.

“We hate to see that re-source decline any further,” she said. “It’s a red fl ag on a zoning map and they are obligated to maintain it. Since this has been brought to my attention, I can’t just ignore it. We’ll see if that is a tool we need to use or if the owner has plans to sta-bilize it.”

sion last week. Pictured are Law Director Joe Jarret (left) and Halls resident Ted Hatfi eld (right)

receiving the certifi cate from resolution sponsor R. Larry Smith. “Scouting is strong in East Ten-

nessee,” said Smith, who praised Hatfi eld for having, “not one, not two, not three, but fi ve sons

who are Eagle Scouts.” Photo by S. Clark

NATURE NOTES | Dr. Bob Collier

Springtime just has a special feeling to it. The feeling came to me recently, as I stood and admired my first jonquil, a neat double blossom whose ancestors graced my grandmother’s yard well more than 75 years ago.

The last of February had a lot of March days: sun, clouds, gusty winds and showers. And now the buds are coming out on the elms, the maples and the willows. And, the cardinals, tufted titmice, field sparrows and Carolina wrens are singing every morn-ing.

I suppose through the years the single event that always said it was spring was when we start-ed planting the garden, a magi-cal day when the ground was just right to work, and the sun was shining, and in went the onion sets and the spinach and lettuce seeds. What a great feeling.

Folks around here know gar-dening. Our forebears had done it since before they left their old countries and came over the mountains. And it wasn’t done just for a cheery outdoor expe-rience; there were many hungry mouths to feed, and besides, nobody had eaten anything that was fresh-grown since the last greens of fall.

Our local gardening tradi-tions go back a long way. Take seed companies and their cata-logs, for example. Think how scanning those pages and pages of showy, weedless f lowerbeds and luscious, ripe, always bug-free vegetables get the old juices f lowing during those last dreary days of winter.

Apparently, the Landreth Seed House in Philadelphia,

started up in 1798, is the oldest seed company in the country and is the fifth oldest corporation in North America. They intro-duced the zinnia in 1789 and the tomato in 1820. Can you imag-ine a garden without a bunch of both? The Park Seed Company was started up in 1868 by an en-terprising 15-year-old, and eight years later, Burpee Seeds was started, by an also-enterprising 18-year-old.

Earlier, the Shakers put out a catalog of garden seeds in 1831. The Shakers had a lot to do with how we do seeds today. Their of-ficial name was The United Soci-ety of Believers in Christ’s Second Coming. They lived in various places in the United States, from Maine to Kentucky, in communal settlements of strictly celibate men and women (no offspring). They kept going by taking in an occasional new member and by adopting orphans, but have fi-nally all but died out. They left behind many amazing accom-plishments, including their tra-dition of simplicity in their lives and their beautiful furniture.

But they also in 1916 invented the concept of packaging gar-den seeds for sale in small paper envelopes, the way we see them in the store today. (Although they’re getting so expensive, it wouldn’t surprise me if they didn’t start selling them by the seed. But oops, that sounds like something my grandmother probably said 60 years ago.)

The enterprising Shakers also made small wooden boxes to pack and distribute the seed packets in, to the country stores, where the customers would just

Spring and the signs

pick their selections out of the boxes. Decorated with pictures of f lowers and vegetables, the boxes are big-ticket collectors’ items today; even modern fac-similes are expensive.

Well, after you have gleaned your ideas from the seed cata-logs and gone down to the store for your packets of seeds, there’s still the preparation and plant-ing. Just go out there and whomp them into the ground? Certainly not, if you believe in planting by the signs! My main planting by the signs person was the late Earl Conner of the large Powell Conner clan. A master farmer and gardener, Earl used to plow our garden every spring. With-out telling you when, before-hand, and without any thought of our paying him for the work.

Earl was a believer and prac-titioner of planting by the signs. For you city folk who might not be familiar with the practice, it involves timing all your farm-ing activities – removing brush, digging post holes, plowing and planting – according to the signs of the Zodiac.

Foolishness, you say? Not if you had seen Earl Conner’s gar-den! It always looked like a page from one of those seed catalogs. They lived next door to the Col-liers, and you could see his gar-den from mine. Well, no contest. Earl’s corn would be 8 feet tall while mine was just peeking out and trying to decide whether to go on and grow.

Other than years of experi-ence like Earl’s, how does one come to know about all this Zo-diac stuff? Why, from the Old Farmer’s Almanac, of course. The Old Farmer’s Almanac was first published in 1792 and is the oldest continuously-published periodical in North America. It contains weather forecasts, tide tables, planting charts and all the Zodiac-related times to do all those chores or to not do them. For example, if you dig post holes when the signs are wrong, your fence posts are going to loosen up; if the signs are right, the posts will just tighten up in their

holes “like they growed there.” And, you don’t just throw all

your seeds in the ground under the same sign. Some are right for the above-ground crops, and some for the root crops. Plant your taters when the signs are in the feet and they’ll all have little toes growing on them. The Alma-nac is famous for its weather pre-dictions, although its accuracy varies a lot according to whom you ask. At any rate, it is a legend-ary part of life in rural America.

Every garden is as different as its gardener. Scientific, or by the signs. Organic, or full of dust, spray and fertilizer. Weed-free, or laid-back. But they all have the common thread of that hard-to-describe feeling that ev-ery gardener shares in some way, when those little seeds come up, by golly, living and producing for yet another season.

Almost makes you want to hum a little tune as you pull those weeds.

POWELL SHOPPER-NEWS • MARCH 12, 2012 • A-7 faith

The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;You hold my lot.The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;I have a goodly heritage.

(Psalm 16: 5-6 NRSV)

Here, O my Lord, I see thee face to face;Here would I touch and handle things unseen. ...

(“Here O My Lord, I See Thee,” Horatius Bonar, 1857)

Pieces of the past

I love old things: things that have a story behind them, things worn smooth by the touch of many hands, or by the repeated touch of one particular pair of hands.

For example, I have the rolling pin that my grandfather made for my grandmother. It is about 14 inches long, about 2 inches thick, made from poplar wood, which I have no doubt he took from a tree on the farm. It doesn’t have handles, just slightly rounded ends, so the cook rolls it across the pastry with the palm of her hands.

Even though that roll-ing pin is not perfectly smooth, it pleases me no end to think of Papa cut-ting and shaping and sand-ing it for his wife. She was 12 years his junior, and he adored her, referring to her as “the prettiest girl ever to come out of Union County,” a beauty who was well and truly named – Belle.

Belle may have been a beauty, but she was also a farm wife, who worked hard. She washed and ironed and cooked and milked cows and often helped in the fields, too. She cooked a farm hands’ dinner at noon (it wasn’t lunch if you had worked hard all morning!), then washed the dishes while Papa took a short nap, and went back to the fields in the afternoon.

My Jordan now has the dough board that Belle used to make bread. It is a large, elongated wooden bowl that an older cousin and I cleaned up years ago, treating the wood with oil until it gleamed softly. Touching its silky smooth-ness links me with a wom-an I never knew: Belle died when my mother was just 18. I am pleased that Jor-dan treasures it.

CROSS CURRENTS

I also have a pair of crystal chalices that my grandparents gave to their church for use in serv-ing the sacrament of Holy Communion. When the church became more mod-ern and did away with the common cup, the pastor gave the chalices back to the family.

I understand that even the chalices are just things, and that the legacies of faith and love and strength of character that our an-cestors pass down to us are far more crucial. The con-nectedness I feel with my grandparents when I hold things their hands touched pales in comparison to the wonder of the sacraments themselves. No matter how one understands the bread and the wine to be the body and the blood of Christ, there is power and healing and sustenance in those simple elements.

As the bread is placed in my hand, it is both real and mystical, ancient and new, sustenance and promise. As the chalice is offered, it is blessing and sacrifice, celebration and mortality, joy and sorrow.

I am grateful for the real, ordinary, simple ele-ments which the Lord im-bued with such meaning. I am grateful that I may “touch and handle things unseen”: Jesus’ body and blood, and his love for us offered in the humble, ev-eryday gifts of field and vineyard.

‘A fl oating puzzle piece’Holocaust

survivor looks back

By Sandra ClarkClara Van Thyn was 20

months old when her Jewish par-ents board-ed a train in Holland and left without her in 1942. She did not realize the

magnitude of their sacri-fice until many years later when she had a grandchild.

Sonja DuBois related her story last week at the XYZ Club of Powell United Methodist Church.

“My memories are still coming together,” she said. “I am a f loating puz-zle piece. By the time I started asking questions, there was no one to answer them.”

Young Clara’s family left her with a friend, a musi-cian, when they were re-located by the Nazis. Her

mother and father were murdered at Auschwitz that same year. They were just 29.

“I used to say I lost my family,” said DuBois. “Then I realized, you lose your car keys. My family was murdered – my moth-er, my father, my grand-parents, my aunts, my uncles, my three little boy cousins.”

A million and a half chil-dren were murdered in the Holocaust, and 6 million total people died. “It was anyone who didn’t fit in – Jewish people, gypsies, homosexuals, Seventh Day Adventists.”

DuBois lifted a print of Neyland Stadium. “You all know this. It holds a few more than 100,000 people. You would have to fill and empty it 60 times to reach 6 million.”

DuBois’ look back took her to Rotterdam, The Netherlands, in May 1940 when she was born. A cou-ple of years earlier a cousin had said Holland did not look safe for Jews. He got on one of the last ships

leaving. The United States was closed to immigrants, and the only places to go were Cuba or Australia.

Her cousin went to Aus-tralia and was safe, but he was lost to his family.

After the German in-vasion of Holland, things changed quickly for every-one, but especially for the Jews. “They were made to wear the Star of David, which they had to pay for. Later they could not go to the theatre or the beach.

By 1941, the Jews lost their jobs. The exception was Jewish physicians who could only treat their own people, who had no money to pay for treatment.

The country was filled with survivors, and some were Nazi collaborators.

Hitler’s goal was to make Europe “clean of Jews,” said DuBois.

Her parents gave her up and she was taken in by foster parents whom she calls “mom and pop.”

Since they didn’t have children of their own, I was their one and only, she said. She was raised

Sonja DuBois

as a Christian and today attends Erin Presbyterian Church in Knoxville.

DuBois drew a laugh when she showed her sec-ond grade class of 20 blond or red-haired children and one skinny, dark-haired girl, “hidden in plain sight.”

She acknowledged the help of the village – the teachers who didn’t ask questions, the pediatrician who helped fabricate a new birthday and name change, and the farmer who pro-vided a glass of milk each day from a contraband cow kept hidden in the woods.

In 1945, Holland was liberated. First came Ca-nadian troops, then Amer-ican soldiers throwing packs of Lucky Strikes and Hershey bars.

Mom, Pop and Sonja im-migrated to the United States when she was 12, settling in New Jersey. She couldn’t speak English yet, but she was safe. She could smile.

“I say thank you every day for life,” she said.

DuBois is eager to share her story and PowerPoint presentation with people, especially adolescents. She can be reached at [email protected]/.

Sleeping pills are dangerous and ineffec-tive. The use of prescrip-tion sleeping pills has been cut in half over the last 10 years, but millions of people still buy over-the-counter sleeping pills, and these can be hazardous.

Dr. Daniel Kriple, professor of psy-chiatry at the University of California, reported that frequent users of sleeping pills have a 50 percent higher mortality rate than other people.

“Sleeping pills may also compound that very problem causing a person’s in-somnia,” he said. They lead to disruptions of the sleep cycle, fragmented sleep, dis-turbing dreams and daytime fatigue.

Also, don’t use “nightcaps” or other drugs. Alcohol late at night might help knock you out temporarily, but the sleep you get will be light, fragmented and unsettled. Since alcohol is metabolized quickly, one can almost be sure of being awakened with withdrawal pangs later in the night. Alcohol also interferes with the deep and REM dreaming sleep.

While alcohol is a depressant, nico-tine and caffeine are stimulants. It takes the body four to fi ve hours to halve the

amount of caffeine in the bloodstream. If you smoke, stop well before bedtime. Re-search has found that smokers who quit experience dramatic improvement in their quality of sleep within three days.

What can you do to ensure better sleep? Work with your sleep rhythm. Your internal clock regulates body tem-perature, blood pressure and heartbeat. It also regulates when we feel drowsy.

Preceding all sleep, there is a lower-ing of the body temperature to about 97 degrees, a drop in metabolism and a pe-riod of drowsiness. These rhythms are highly individual; you will get your best sleep if you work with them. Don’t go to bed too early or too late. If your drowsy period occurs at 1 a.m. instead of 11 p.m., don’t fi ght it. Your quality sleep of six hours will do you better than eight hours of tossing around. If you go to bed and aren’t sleepy, don’t just lie there. If you have not gone to sleep in 15 minutes or so, get up, go to another room, and read a dull book until drowsiness hits you.

Powell boys begin 2012 season

Between the end of bas-ketball and the beginning of baseball, the Powell boys’ soccer team gets things start-ed. After a couple of rebuild-ing years, the team boasts a plethora of seniors and what is being called Powell’s best team since 2008.

“We had three rebuilding years … this should be our year,” said senior Kyler Hall. “This is defi nitely the year for us to win district.”

Senior Ellias Palcu be-lieves this is the best year Powell will have had, too. “We’ll definitely finish top-half in the district,” said Palcu. “We’ll definite-ly go over .500.”

Senior Drew Phipps says his team’s season is “look-ing good.

“We should go at least past the second round of the district tournament,” said Phipps.

Senior Justin Wood con-curs. “The season looks bright,” he said.

“We have seven return-

Spring brings soccer

ing seniors,” said Palcu. “I’d say that we’re prob-ably the best we’ve been in about five years.”

Palcu believes the key to success will be scoring. “We’re an all-district de-fense,” he said. “We’re just going to have to find a way to get that ball in the back of the net.”

Recently, the district has been dominated by Hardin Valley Academy and Oak Ridge. Hardin Valley is be-lieved to be “down” this year whereas Oak Ridge is expect-ed to be even stronger. Cen-tral is expected to be talented as well.

“Central’s going to be re-ally good, and Karns is nor-mally pretty good as well,” said Phipps.

“This is our year to beat Hardin Valley. They lost an onslaught of seniors and

we’ve got quite a few,” said Palcu. “Hardin Valley and Oak Ridge will be big games.”

“I think our best bet for a big win will be Hardin Val-ley,” said Phipps. “That’ll be our best win.” The Hardin Valley Hawks have beaten the Panthers three years straight.

The Panthers scrim-maged the Oak Ridge Wild-cats on Feb. 28, losing 3-0. However, it was more of a “test” game for the Pan-thers, as, according to Pal-cu, junior varsity players were subbed in to “get a feel for the game.”

“The Oak Ridge game could’ve and should’ve been better,” said Phipps.

Powell has also scrim-maged Berean Christian Academy, losing 1-0. The Panthers beat Morristown West 3-1.

The team’s fi rst game will take place Tuesday, March 13, against Gibbs. After that, the Panthers will play ap-proximately 20 more games. Home games for the Panthers will be played at Powell Mid-dle School.

Skeen signs with Walters StatePowell High senior Colby Skeen signed to play baseball at Walters State next season. Celebrat-

ing with Colby (front) are parents Todd and Kim Skeen, Cassidy Skeen; (back) Powell baseball

coach Jeff Inman and assistant coach Jay Scarbro. Skeen selected Walters State because he

liked the coaches and felt that it was a good fi t. “Colby is a good kid and a hard worker,” said

Inman. “He has been one of Powell High’s top power hitters the past three years and an all-

around good player.” Skeen has his sights set on the Panthers being at the top of the district

this season. Photo by Ruth White

Herman to UCFormer Powell High

standout and Roane State Community College wom-en’s basketball player Jill Herman has signed to play for the University of the Cumberlands.

s h o r t e s t m o n t h on the calendar, February s h o w e d some en-c o u r a g -ing num-bers for the local

housing market. For the month that ended on Wednesday, Feb. 29, there were 514 property transfers in Knox Coun-ty. That number bested the sales from January, as well as those from February of last year.

The aggregate value of land sold during the month was $89.2 mil-

lion, which also repre-sented a slight increase from January’s pace. Last February, 456 par-cels changed hands, worth a total of about $81 million. It should be noted that because 2012 is a leap year, this February did have an extra day. However, the numbers were still quite encouraging since Feb-ruary is historically the slowest month of the year for real estate ac-tivity.

Lending markets held their own as low interest rates continued to draw eligible homeowners into refinancing. Febru-ary saw approximately $233 million loaned against property in

Knox County, compared to about $241 million the previous month.

The largest transfer of the month was for com-mercial property located at 4505 Clinton High-way. The sale between Cappo Properties LLC and Super Automotive LLC brought just under $5 million.

The largest mortgage transaction was the loan financing the 4505 Clin-ton Highway property in the amount of $11.7 mil-lion. In second place was a loan made by Pinnacle National Bank to East Tennessee Healthcare Development LLC in the amount of $5.6 million, which involved several different properties.

David Howell, a liberal arts profes-sor at Pellis-sippi State, will address the incom-p a t i b i l i t y of science and religion at a lec-ture set for 3:30 p.m.

Wednesday, March 28, in the Goins Building on the Hardin Valley campus.

The community is invited to the free event.

“Many people believe that you can be religious and sci-entifi c at the same time,” said Howell. “I believe the news is worse than that. Much as we’d like that to be the case, it’s not. You have to choose between science and religion.

“The confl ict between sci-ence and religion is real and

cannot be made to go away. Religion says that the world is a creation of a loving God. Science says it’s obviously not the case. People of good will want to say we can be religious and scientifi c and don’t have to give up one or the other. Unfortunately, they’re mistaken.”

Howell will refer to the works of St. Thomas Aqui-nas, a philosopher and theo-logian; Sir Isaac Newton, a mathematician and scientist; and Stephen Gould, an evo-lutionary biologist and histo-rian of science.

The ongoing Faculty Lecture Series is meant to provoke thinking, discus-sion and debate. The March 28 lecture is sponsored by Gnosis, the college’s student service-learning club.Info: Annie Gray at [email protected] or

Lecture on ‘science vs. religion’

By Ruth WhiteThe Heiskell Senior

Center is buzzing with many activities and always welcomes newcomers to join the fun.

This month Craig Leu-thold from the Knox County Property Asses-sor’s office spoke to the group on property assess-ment procedures and pro-vided information regard-ing property taxes. The next meeting will be held Thursday, April 12, and John Bayless with Fron-tier Communications will speak on Internet fraud and safety measures.

Heiskell Senior Cen-ter’s own Janice White has been nominated for Home Federal Bank’s Hometown Hero. The award recogniz-es outstanding individuals who provide volunteer ser-vices that strengthen the community and improve lives of others. White spearheaded a drive to have a dangerous section of Raccoon Valley Road repaired and widened fol-lowing many serious and even fatal accidents. She

also rallied to have a turn lane added and a hill taken down to increase visibility on Raccoon Valley Road.

White oversees the com-munity projects which include the Totes of Love Project. This project pro-vided more than 100 tote bags filled with school sup-plies and personal hygiene items for school children at Christmas and more than 80 bags filled with fresh fruit, scarves and gloves for senior adults. The totes are sewn from fabric do-nated by members of the Knoxville chapter of the American Society of Inte-rior Designers, keeping the fabric from being dumped into landfills. The program will continue, providing totes for students when need arises.

Upcoming activities in-clude:

■ Self defense class with Toni McSorley, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, April 28. Several spots are available.

■ Plant/Rummage sale, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, May 5. Breakfast and lunch will be available to buy;

NEWS FROM WEAVER HEARING AID CENTER

By Sandra ClarkDon’t let high-pow-

G a r y a n d B e l i n d a Weaver at Weaver Hear-ing Aid Center are lifelong residents of Knoxville. Gary’s fam-ily operated Weaver Fu-neral Home and he is a

Licensed Hearing In-strument Specialist. Be-linda has a background in nursing.

“ O u r p r o f e s s i o n a l practice is focused on fit-ting each client with the right product. We also consider what’s going on when you don’t have your hearing aid on. We are your 24-hour better hearing provider,” said Gary.

That doesn’t mean that Gary and Belin-da live at their Frank-lin Square offi ce. The center is open during business hours, fi ve

days a week. But it does mean that the Weavers take time with each per-son to learn about their needs and problems – to explore their lifestyle and expectations from hearing instruments.

“Some people are very active, while others are more private, preferring to stay home with family. We don’t try to make one hearing aid fit all,” Gary said.

We a v e r h a s a d d e d products to serve his cli-ents when they are not wearing their hearing aid. For example:

■ Also, high ampli-f ication telephones that can’t be sold at elec-tronic stores because of their power.

Buying a toilet isn’t as much fun as buying sassy spring sandals but a necessity! There’s more to know about toilets than meets the … well, you get it. Find the right flush for your bathroom with my toilet tips.

A one piece toilet is sleeker, easier to clean and has fewer places for yuck to live. Two piece toilets are economical, easy to install and the bowl or tank can be replaced.

Toilet height is measured from floor to rim. Standard is 14-inches; chair height is 16 to 17-inches and ADA compliant. There’s even a 10-inch model perfect for potty training.

Round, compact elongated or elongated … oh my! Small pow-der rooms may only have space for a round or compact model that extends about 27 ½-inches. Elongated are the most popular extending 29 ½-inches.

The EPA WaterSense folks say older toilets use 3.5 to 7 gal-lons per flush (gpf). Geez! That’s a lot! The government says the max flush can’t be more than 1.6 gpf. A WaterSense labeled toilet uses 1.28 gpf and can save a family of four more than $90 a year on their water bill. There’s also a dual flusher with a partial and full flush that uses as little as 1.0 gpf.

Other stuff that divas typically don’t care about … The flush valve is inside the tank. A large opening allows the water to pass through faster for a quick flush. Valve sizes are 2-inch, 3-inch or the mack-daddy, 4-inch. Next, the toilet outlet is the gateway to the sewer and bigger is better. Sizes include: 2-inch, 2 1/8-inch and 2 3/8-inch.

Have you ever stopped to think how much it costs you to leave the water running while you brush your teeth?

It’s worth thinking about. An estimated eight gallons of water flows down the drain while you’re brushing. At 16 gallons a day, leaving that water running wastes 5,840 gallons of water a year. That’s a whole lot of both water and money down the drain.

Armed with that information you might want to turn the water off next time you brush.

But that’s not all. A leaky toilet wastes about 200 gallons of water a day or 73,000 gallons a year. A faucet that is dripping at the rate of five drips a minute wastes 263 gallons a year; at 50 drips a minute, it’s wasting 2,628 gallons a year.

The dollars are starting to add up here, aren’t they? Even worse, you’re paying for something you aren’t even

on-going, but the annual Fix-A-Leak Week is March 12-18 this year.

The environmentally conscious folks at Modern Supply heartily endorse the program. They have partnered with the EPA on this project and offer a wide range of Water Sense labeled products to make your life easier and save both money and water.

They point out that if one in every 10 American homes upgrades a full bathroom with WaterSense labeled fixtures, including toilet, faucet and showerhead, we could save about 74

billion gallons of water and about $1.6 billion on our utility bills nationwide per year.

Think on these facts: the average bathroom makeover saves about 7,000 gallons of water a year. That’s enough to do six months’ worth of laundry.

Visit the Modern Supply showroom just off Lovell Road. They’ll show you how to re-do your bathrooms and put money in your pocket. If you’d like to phone ahead for an appointment with a WaterSense specialist, call 966-4567.
