tomers who haven’t paid after a month, but the town has been lenient concerning allowing customers to pay what they can toward delinquent bills.

“We now have people $1,000 and $2,000 behind on their water bills,” Martin said.

C o m m i s -sioner George Baker said the town has a lot of people on fixed incomes and now they are in the hole and that’s the town’s fault because they have let customers get there.

He suggested coming up with a percentage required for delin-quent bills and to enforce the 30-day payment going forward.

Tryon Mayor Alan Peoples said he agreed and doesn’t want to cut people’s water off. He suggested having Martin come up with a policy that is fair and equitable.

Martin said the $99,000 balance includes both active accounts and inactive accounts and she has sent letters to people who are 90 days or more late on their bills. She said she is also sending letters to customers who are 60 and 30 days late.

Martin also said there are currently 153 inactive accounts and that 90 customers come in and paid in full last month.

Tryon’s current ordinance states that, “Service will be

discontinued to all customers who become one month delin-quent in paying their accounts. A notification will be printed on all water bills that service will be discontinued seven days after the due date. When the cutoff day falls on any day the town hall is not open, the cut off day will be the next day of operation.

To reconnect the service, the customer must pay a $35 reconnect fee plus all unpaid bills.”

“We need t o f i g u r e

something out because it’s a disservice to the people who are paying,” said commissioner Wim Woody.

The Town of Columbus found itself in similar circumstances in 2008 and enacted a new policy that requires full payment within 11 days of the bill being due or the water service is cut off.

Columbus’ new policy fol-lowed a problem collecting rental property water bills after the renters vacated the property.

Columbus’ water bills are due on the 10th of every month and beginning on the 11th of the month the town charges a 10-percent penalty. The town cuts off water service if the bill is not paid in full by the 21st of the month, or the Monday following, if that day falls on a weekend or holiday. Columbus charges a $75 reconnect fee to turn the water service back on.

On Sunday mornings I normally head out for church at 7:00 a.m.. My usual route takes me up Trade Street toward Greater Downtown Tryon where just before I turn left at Side Street Pizza onto McCowan Street I can see Tryon Peak rising above the business district skyline. However, one recent Sunday morning the entire mountain was completely encased in a bank of grey clouds tinged red by the early morning sun. There was no moun-tain, no Tryon Peak to be seen. The question came to mind, “If I cannot see it, is it really still there?”

That is often the funda-mental question of faith. “If I cannot see, feel or hear God directly and person-ally, is God still there?”

In the Gospels Jesus talks about faith as some-thing arising from within a person that reaches out for the holy even when the circumstances make faith illogical or problematic. A woman hopefully touches the hem of his robe and she is cured. A paralytic is lowered by friends through the roof to be healed, but it is the faith of the friends and not the paralytic which brings about a cure. Jesus healed two blind men and told them it was, “according to your faith.”

Faith is an active enter-prise of the heart, soul and mind reaching out to God. It is not a commodity. Often we pastors hear such things as, “Oh, if I had more faith [fill in the blank] would be bet-

The BeauTy of auTumn Fall, or autumn, is the third of four seasons that we experience in a calendar year. The first day of fall coincides with the autumnal equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemi-sphere, the autumnal equinox occurs around September 23, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it occurs around March 21. For this reason, au-tumn in the Northern Hemisphere falls in the months of September, October, November, and sometimes early December. In the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn months are just the opposite; they occur late March through early June. The reason for the difference is due to

the distance from the sun that each hemisphere is located. The farther away from the sun, the cooler and shorter the days will become. Fall is a very pleasant time of year. The temperatures are cooler than summer, but they are not cold. Many activities occur at this time because of the nice weather. Oktoberfest is celebrated in many parts of the world, and Thanksgiving is celebrated in November in the United States. The American football season begins in early fall, as well as many other sport seasons. Outdoor activi-ties, such as hay rides and camp fires, are popular. Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they (and acorns) fall off the trees.

The human Tongue

a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!

The human tongue is responsible for three major func-tions: the sense of taste, to aid in speech, and to help digest food. The tongue is comprised mainly of muscle cells, along with glands, fatty tissue, and sensory cells (taste buds). The tongue’s roll in digestion is the delivery of food into the esophagus; when you swallow it helps to push the food down. To aid in speech, the tongue touches different parts of the mouth, such as the teeth, or the roof of the mouth, to create different sounds. The sense of taste allows us to enjoy, or to stay away from, certain foods. The tongue has tiny receptors in it called taste buds. These taste buds allow us to sense the five types of taste: sweet, sour (or acid), bitter, salty, and the recently discovered umami (found mainly in Japanese cuisine). It has long been theorized that certain areas of the tongue are responsible for tasting different things. Scientists have now discovered that this is not entirely true. Certain areas of the tongue are better at sensing different tastes, but all

taste buds can sense the five types of taste. The tip of the tongue is best at tasting sweets. The sides of our tongue are good at tasting sour things, such as lemons. The base of the tongue is best at tasting bit-ter foods, and salt is best tasted right behind the tip, or just beyond the sweet taste buds. Umami, which is the taste of amino acids, or glutamate, has not been placed on the taste map, since it is newly discov-ered. As time goes by, taste buds diminish in number; hence, a younger person has a stronger sense of taste than an elderly person. This is most likely the reason that many adults enjoy things with stronger tastes, such as coffee, than children who prefer sweets do.

The Island of Madagascar The African Island of Madagascar, located in the Indian Ocean, is approximately 250 miles away from the African mainland. The country closest to the island is Mozambique and the two countries are separated by a body of water in the Indian Ocean known as the Mozambique Channel. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world, measur-ing almost 1,000 miles in length and 350 miles wide at its widest point. The Capital of Madagascar is Antananarivo. The Republic of Madagascar also includes several smaller, adjacent islands. The island has several different climate zones which include the tropical rains of the northwest, the dry southern area, and wet and hot western area. The island has mountains, ridges, and valleys that separate these different areas. The tallest moun-tain found in Madagascar is Mount Maromokotro, which is 9,436 feet above sea level. The people of Madagascar are considered to be members of the African community, but their origins are more closely related to Indonesia. They are referred to as being Mala-gasy--a name that refers to both the people and the native language. The other official language is French. Madagascar’s primary industry is farming; rice is the primary food staple. Vanilla and coffee are produced for export; Madagascar produces more vanilla than any other country in the world. Today, Madagascar is a multi-party republic, but it was at one time a French territory. Perhaps the most famous inhabitants of Madagascar are not people, but the animals that are native to the island. The lemurs of Madagascar are small, tree-dwelling primates that are not found naturally in any other habitat in the world. Another animal, found only on the Island of Madagascar, is the fossa. The fossa is a meat-eating animal, much like a large cat. It is one of the lemur’s natural enemies. Some of the oldest dinosaur fossils in the world have been found on Madagascar.

Money, or currency, is something that is used as a medium of exchange. Over the centuries, money has come in all different shapes and sizes. In the United States today, the dollar is the primary form of currency in circulation. Until recent decades, most types of monies have almost always been made from, or backed by, a precious metal. This means that the coins themselves have been made from silver or gold, or that there were precious metals in a reserve to back up the worth of the money. In 1900, the United States Government passed the Gold Standard Act. For every paper dollar that existed, a certain amount of gold was kept in storage by the U.S. Government. In 1933, the Unit-ed States began moving away from the gold standard, because it restricted the number of dollars that could be produced. Today’s dollars, like most currencies, are called “fiat money” which means they are backed by people’s faith in government and not metals. Every country uses some form of currency. Many countries have dropped their own form of currency in favor of using the American dollar. This is known as dollarization. In Europe, the primary form of currency in 16 major countries since 1999 is the euro. The United Kingdom still uses the pound system. Canada and Australia call their currencies a dollar like the United States, but they are separate from the U.S. system. Other coun-tries have different names for their money. Brazil has the real; Mexico has the peso; China has the yuan; Japan has the yen; Russia has the ruble; and South Africa has the rand.Circle the words hidden in the puzzle below.

The Smithsonian Institute

A Special Thank You To All Our Sponsors!

The Smithsonian Institute is a network of museums and research and educational institutes that is managed by the United States Government, with its headquarters in Washington, D.C. It was established in 1846, after several years of debate within Congress over the funds donated for the establishment. The Institution’s namesake, James Smithson, was a British scientist and mineralogist, for whom the mineral ore smithsonite is also named after. Upon his death in 1829, his will bequeathed his riches to his sole heir, a nephew, with a provision: should his nephew die without an heir, “I then bequeath the whole of my property...to the United States of America to found at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Insti-tution, an Establishment for the increase & diffusion of knowledge....” The motivation behind the donation, which was over $500,000 (an astronomi-cal amount at the time), has been called a mystery, because he had never visited America, nor did he have any ties with the United States. Today, the establishment is run by a board of regents governed by the Vice President, the Chief Justice, six members of Congress, and nine citizens. It is home to many significant pieces of American history and has several locations, including the Postal Museum, the Portrait Gallery, the Air and Space Mu-seum, and the Natural History Museum.

ter,” as if faith is some kind of coinage we exchange for God’s favor and good will. But Jesus emphatically denies this when he says to his disciples who ask him, “Increase our faith. The Lord replied, ‘If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, “Be uprooted and planted in the sea”, and it would obey you.” (Luke 17:5-6) Faith is therefore a living action rooted in God’s power and not our own.

Hebrews 11:1 says, “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the convic-tion of things not seen.” That means our mustard seed bit of faith is God’s assurance to us of God’s presence and active good will towards us even when we cannot per-

ceive it. It is our persever-ance of being open to God, even when it doesn’t seem to make sense, or when our human need for hard proof of God’s benevolence tries to turn us away from faith.

When I did not see Tryon Peak that morning I could have reacted in any num-ber of ways. I could have believed the mountain was gone because I could not see it. I could have stopped and waited for the clouds to pass to be absolutely sure it was still there. I could have simply gone about my day knowing that mountains don’t disappear overnight; that having seen it before I could trust that it is still there; that it would soon reappear in all its glory; and that all I had to have was a tiny bit of faith that those things were true. I chose the third option.

I learned this lesson as a child from my Dad, a life-long Baptist deacon. One day when we were hunting the beagles ran across a hill after a rabbit and soon they were out of earshot. Not knowing where they were I started to panic, but Dad said, “Have a little faith, Son. Just because you can’t see them or hear them don’t mean they’re gone.” So we stood quietly in the field and listened. Soon, to my surprise and delight, the whole pack came barreling over a hill from an entirely different direction than we expected.

Sometimes God does that, too, when we are will-ing to have a little faith.

On Sunday mornings I normally head out for church at 7:00 a.m.. My usual route takes me up Trade Street toward Greater Downtown Tryon where just before I turn left at Side Street Pizza onto McCowan Street I can see Tryon Peak rising above the business district skyline. However, one recent Sunday morning the entire mountain was completely encased in a bank of grey clouds tinged red by the early morning sun. There was no moun-tain, no Tryon Peak to be seen. The question came to mind, “If I cannot see it, is it really still there?”

That is often the funda-mental question of faith. “If I cannot see, feel or hear God directly and person-ally, is God still there?”

In the Gospels Jesus talks about faith as some-thing arising from within a person that reaches out for the holy even when the circumstances make faith illogical or problematic. A woman hopefully touches the hem of his robe and she is cured. A paralytic is lowered by friends through the roof to be healed, but it is the faith of the friends and not the paralytic which brings about a cure. Jesus healed two blind men and told them it was, “according to your faith.”

Faith is an active enter-prise of the heart, soul and mind reaching out to God. It is not a commodity. Often we pastors hear such things as, “Oh, if I had more faith [fill in the blank] would be bet-

Upon his death in 1829, his will bequeathed his riches to his sole heir, a nephew, with a provision: should his nephew die without an heir, “I then bequeath the whole of my property...to the United States of America to found at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Insti-tution, an Establishment for the increase & diffusion of knowledge....” The motivation behind the donation, which was over $500,000 (an astronomi-cal amount at the time), has been called a mystery, because he had never visited America, nor did he have any ties with the United States. Today, the establishment is run by a board of regents governed by the Vice President, the Chief Justice, six members of Congress, and nine citizens. It is home to many significant pieces of American history and has several locations, including the Postal Museum, the Portrait Gallery, the Air and Space Mu-seum, and the Natural History Museum.

ter,” as if faith is some kind of coinage we exchange for God’s favor and good will. But Jesus emphatically denies this when he says to his disciples who ask him, “Increase our faith. The Lord replied, ‘If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, “Be uprooted and planted in the sea”, and it would obey you.” (Luke 17:5-6) Faith is therefore a living action rooted in God’s power and not our own.

Hebrews 11:1 says, “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the convic-tion of things not seen.” That means our mustard seed bit of faith is God’s assurance to us of God’s presence and active good will towards us even when we cannot per-

ceive it. It is our persever-ance of being open to God, even when it doesn’t seem to make sense, or when our human need for hard proof of God’s benevolence tries to turn us away from faith.

When I did not see Tryon Peak that morning I could have reacted in any num-ber of ways. I could have believed the mountain was gone because I could not see it. I could have stopped and waited for the clouds to pass to be absolutely sure it was still there. I could have simply gone about my day knowing that mountains don’t disappear overnight; that having seen it before I could trust that it is still there; that it would soon reappear in all its glory; and that all I had to have was a tiny bit of faith that those things were true. I chose the third option.

I learned this lesson as a child from my Dad, a life-long Baptist deacon. One day when we were hunting the beagles ran across a hill after a rabbit and soon they were out of earshot. Not knowing where they were I started to panic, but Dad said, “Have a little faith, Son. Just because you can’t see them or hear them don’t mean they’re gone.” So we stood quietly in the field and listened. Soon, to my surprise and delight, the whole pack came barreling over a hill from an entirely different direction than we expected.

Sometimes God does that, too, when we are will-ing to have a little faith.

A local team of four women (Mandy Wolfe, Lori Geddings, Ellen Seagle and Belynda Ves-er) competed in the USMC Ul-timate Challenge Mud Run held on Saturday, Oct. 13 in Gaston, S.C. They took fifth place out of 132 All-Female Division and were 141 out of 1,434 teams overall. This particular mud run is not an individual event, but one that involves team effort and perseverance. Participants enter one of seven categories, including military, homeland heroes, all-male, all-female, co-ed, JROTC and corporate.

“Our team is proud to say that each member completed every obstacle, without tak-ing a penalty,” Wolfe said. “We pushed hard and finished strong.”

The 5.2-mile all- terrain course is equipped with 36 military-style obstacles, con-sisting of walls, trenches and mud holes that challenge teams

of accomplishment and pride. Event proceeds go to wounded Marines and fallen soldiers’

Editor’s note: The following is a regular column written by the Partnership for Children of the Foothills.

Do you have any family tra-ditions? Family traditions create memories, togetherness and can be the glue that keeps a family together. We all have busy lives – adding a small tradition here or there can make a big difference.

W h y n o t start with Halloween? Here are a few suggestions:

1. Boo Your Neighbors or Friends – This is a fun tradition that is sure to get your entire family in the spirit of Hallow-een. Put together a Halloween goodie bag filled with treats and leave it on a neighbor’s doorstep. Ring their doorbell and run! Include instructions for them to pass the Halloween spirit along by doing the same to another neighbor. Include a “boo” sign for them to hang on their door so that everyone can tell they’ve been boo’ed! Who knows, maybe everyone in Polk County will have a “Boo” sign on their door!

2. Visit the Library for some Spooky Books – There are some really great, fun Hallow-een books at the Polk County library. A few that are worth reading are The The Biggest Pumpkin Ever by Steven Kroll, The Little Old Lady Who was Not Afraid of Anything by Lin-da Williams and Megan Lloyd, and Ghost with the Halloween

Hiccups by Stephen Mooser. Reading Halloween books is the perfect way to gear up for the big night!

3. Plan a Deliciously Fright-ful Dinner - Halloween pulls out all of the stops when it comes to creative recipes, so why not plan an entire meal full

of Halloween recipes – you can make this a Halloween Eve tradition in

your family! You can magically transform the most ordinary foods into their spooky coun-terparts - spaghetti is brains or guts, olives become eye-balls and nuts become witch finger-nails. Or, make some home-made pizza dough and decorate it as a jack-o-lantern using cut up veggies. For dessert, a cov-ered in “dirt” will be a hit.

Resource of the Month: The Tryon Halloween Stroll – of course! The annual stroll in downtown Tryon will be on October 31st from 4:30 – 6 p.m. Trade Street merchants will decorate their shops to welcome all the creepies and cuties with sweet treats. Don’t forget about the costume contest – 6 p.m. at the movie theater. There’s a new category this year: best witches cackle. The other categories are: best group, funniest, scariest and cutest – for all ages. Be safe and have fun.

Lee Luebbe, chair of the Im-migration Study/Advocacy Com-mittee of the League of Women Voters in Henderson County, and Glen Rogers, who serves as the technical expert for the commit-tee, will present the first of two sessions on immigration issues and how to arrive at consensus.

The October program will

provide factual information, lay-ing the groundwork for the Nov. 25 program on consensus on the immigration issues.

Lee, a long-time member of the League of Women Voters

and a North Carolinian since 2001, has been studying the is-sues since 2007. Glen, a retired architect who moved to Hen-dersonville from Connecticut in 2004, joined the League in 2007 to become a part of the immigra-tion committee. The League of Women Voters adopted the study of Immigration at its national convention in 2006.

The meeting is open to the public and refreshments will be served.
