Volunteer forCAC’s
Aug. 14 Mobile Food Pantry
The Community Action Commit-tee needs volunteers to help with its 2010 Mobile Food Pantry on Saturday, Aug. 14. Last year, it provided more than 15,000 pounds of free food to 400 families on a single day. People came from across the middle Tennes-see area to participate.
If you are interested in volun-teering for this year’s event, please contact CAC Director Laura Willis at 598-5927 or e-mail at <[email protected]> for details. CAC needs volunteers before the event for organizational tasks and on August 14. Because of safety concerns, volun-teers must be age 12 or older.
For more than 35 years, the CAC has provided food, fi nancial support, and educational assistance to families in need in the greater Sewanee com-munity. It is an outreach ministry of Otey Memorial Parish Church, with additional support from the Sewanee Community Chest, individuals, and organizations across the area. It pres-ently serves more than 200 families in our community.
Celebrating its 60th anniversary this year, the Sewanee Church Music Conference will end with two services in All Saints’ Chapel that will feature music provided by the conference musicians: Choral Evensong on Fri-day, July 16, at 4 p.m., and the Festival Eucharist on Sunday, July 18, at 11 a.m. The public is invited.
The conference is based in the Du-Bose Conference Center in Monteagle, where 153 church musicians from all parts of the U.S. have gathered for lectures, rehearsals, classes, fellowship and performances.
The faculty for the conference
included Malcolm Archer, former organist and Master of the Choristers at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London and currently director of chapel music at Winchester College in England; Peter Richard Conte, choirmaster and organist at St. Clement’s Episcopal Church and the Grand Court Organist of the Wannamaker Organ in Phila-delphia; and the Rt. Rev. Joe Burnett, bishop of the Diocese of Nebraska, who served as conference chaplain. University Organist and Professor of Music Robert Delcamp is director of this year’s conference.
Sewanee Church Music Conference Ends With Festival Eucharist
The 21st annual Sewanee Writers’ Conference continues on Friday, July 16, with a lecture by playwright Beth Henley at 11 a.m. Fiction writer Chris-tine Schutt will read at 4:15 p.m. and poet Charles Martin, at 8:15 p.m.
Lectures and readings are held in the Mary Sue Cushman Room of the Bairnwick Women’s Center on Mis-sissippi Avenue, one block south of University Avenue. Admission to all public events is free, but space may be limited.
Henley received the Pulitzer Prize and a New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award in 1981 for her play “Crimes of the Heart,” as well as Tony and Acad-emy Award nominations. Other works include “The Miss Firecracker Con-test,” “The Debutante Ball,” “The Lucky Spot,” “Abundance” and “Impossible Marriage.” Henley is Distinguished Professor of Theatre Arts at Loyola Marymount University.
Schutt is the author of two short-story collections: “Nightwork,” chosen by poet John Ashbery as the best book of 1996 for the Times Literary Supple-ment, and “A Day, A Night, Another Day, Summer.” Her novel “Florida” was
a National Book Award Finalist and second novel, “All Souls,” was a fi nalist for the Pulitzer Prize. She is a senior editor of NOON, a literary annual.
Martin is the author of fi ve books of poems, including “Room for Error,” “Steal the Bacon” and “Starting from Sleep: New and Selected Poems,” which was a fi nalist for the Lenore Marshall

At its regular meeting on July 8, the Franklin County Board of Education passed a new dress code policy for students in grades six through 12, a dress code policy for personnel and a revised cell phone policy for students. The new policies will be in effect for the 2010–11 academic year.
In a telephone interview with the Messenger, Steve Ford, Sewanee’s rep-resentative on the school board and the only member who did not vote in favor of the new student dress code, said, “The problem is that current discipline and dress code policies [for the 2009–10 school year] were not being enforced by all teachers and administrators.”
Ford said he voted against the policy because it does “not address disciplinary problems we have now,” particularly at Franklin County High

Summer Male Chorus Performs
July 19A group of about 15 men has met
for the past four weeks to sing music arranged for male voices. Although the main idea was just to have a good time singing, the group has decided to give a short performance at its last meeting on Monday, July 19. The Se-wanee community is invited to attend the 5 p.m. performance at Otey Me-morial Parish. Selections will include a setting of Sibelius’s “Finlandia,” “What Shall We Do With a Drunken Sailor,” “There is Nothin’ Like a Dame” by Rodgers and Hammerstein, Pur-cell’s “Man Is For the Woman Made,” and “Dona Nobis Pacem.”

A GRATEFUL THANK YOUTo the Editor:
On behalf of the Sewanee Woman’s Club I would like to thank Elaine Goleski for co-chairing the Fourth of July Cake Contest. She bought the necessary items to serve the cakes, did the publicity and helped set up. When it is hard to fi nd people to step up to the plate, Elaine always does. I would like to also thank Robbie Bog-gart and Barbara Camm for serving the cake and lemonade and Peggy and Frank Cregor for the cleanup. We had beautiful cakes and everyone who came by enjoyed tasting them. Hope to see you next year with a cake for this fun-fi lled event.

APPRECIATING OUR SOLDIERS IN WAR ZONESTo the Editor,
This is a good time to remind the community why the American Le-gion and American Legion Auxiliary have our “Serving Where Called” col-umn in the Messenger. It is a way of showing appreciation to our military for keeping us safe. A family member calls to report the soldier leaving for the war zone areas. When that soldier returns to his or her home base in the United States, the soldier or the fam-ily member calls to let us know. Then we remove his or her name from the listing until or if the individual is redeployed. There is no way we can maintain a list of all those in the military stationed here at home.
This column reminds readers to keep soldiers and their families in their thoughts and prayers, and rejoice when they return home.
If you have any questions, please call Louise, 598-5864. If you leave me a message, please give your name and phone number.

GOODBYE, SEWANEE FRIENDSTo the Editor and the Sewanee Community:
Now that I have hit the big “8-0” it is time to begin another adventure. I am leaving Sewanee July 18, moving into my new apartment in the newly-completed Tuton Hall, a beautiful 83-unit independent living addition to the Deerfield Episcopal Retirement Community in Asheville, N.C.
Over the years I have lived in the Sewanee community, I have belonged to the Civic Association, the EQB Club and a number of local groups that dance and play cards, board and other games. I’ll miss all my fi erce competitors and all
Serving Where Called
Six years ago this column be-gan to support the large number of reservists and National Guard members called up for active duty to serve in the war in Iraq. About 120,000 troops remain in Iraq to support and train their military and assist with counterterror-ism.
On Dec. 1, President Barack Obama announced he is send-ing 30,000 additional troops to Afghanistan to focus on reversing the Taliban’s momentum. They will join the 68,000 troops cur-rently deployed in this volatile area.
This is a reminder that some-one else is standing guard and facing fire for us. Please keep the following individuals, their families and all those who fi ght for freedom in your prayers:

MESSENGER Break Ahead
After the July 22 paper is in your hands next week, the Sewanee Moun-tain Messenger staff will take a two-week break, July 23–Aug. 5, and return to the offi ce on Friday, Aug. 6. The Messenger will be back in print Thursday, Aug. 12.
Deadlines for the Aug. 12 issue are: display advertising, 5 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 6; news/calendar, 5 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 9; and classifi ed ads, noon on Tuesday, Aug. 10.
Curbside Recycling Tomorrow
Residential curbside recycling pickup in Sewanee is on the fi rst and third Friday of each month. Friday, July 16, will be a pickup day. Recy-clable materials must be separated by type and placed in blue bags by the side of the road no later than 7:30 a.m. Please do not put out general house-hold trash on this day. Blue bags may be picked up in the University Lease Offi ce, 110 Carnegie Hall, at the Physi-cal Plant Services administrative of-fi ce on Alabama Avenue or at the PPS warehouse on Georgia Avenue.
unopposed, would like to ask for your vote.
My single best qualification for this offi ce is that I am the parent of two children at Sewanee Elementary School. For the past four years, I have been a member of the Parent-Teacher Organization’s executive board at SES, and served as both its president and secretary. During that time, we have arranged for the purchase of new computers and Elmos, supplemented funding for classroom and library pur-chases, and organized Friday School activities in the spring. I am aware, of course, that the shoes of departing school board representative Steve Ford are large ones to fi ll, but having worked with faculty, staff, administrators and parents of children at the elementary school, I feel I have a good sense of the community’s concerns and hopes for public education in the county.
It would be a privilege to represent you on the Franklin County School Board.
Yours sincerely,Chris McDonough

Why Do You Go To Church? Over the years I have asked the above question and have been surprised and perplexed by the variety of answers that I have received. Answers have ranged from “I like the preacher” to “We like the people there.” Others have said that it was the “building,” “atmosphere” or “the activities they have for the young people.” While it is understandable how these kinds of things can infl uence someone’s decision with regard to where they att end worship services, none of these things get to the heart of “why do you go to church?” From the very beginning, God has wanted Man to pause from his routine and schedule to worship Him. With His great wisdom and foresight He recognized that if a special time was not set aside each week for this that we would fi ll up our time with earthly and selfi sh pursuits and leave litt le or no time for God in our lives. Under the Old Testament dispensation of time, the Sabbath Day was set aside as the day each week when believers in God were to worship God in a special way (Exodus 20:8). Of course one could worship at any time and place that they chose but the Sabbath Day was a special day of dedicated service to God. Under the New Testament dispensation of time, Christ has set aside the “fi rst day of the week” (Sunday) as a special day of dedicated service to Him. Disciples in the early church gathered together each Sunday to partake of the Lord’s Supper in remembrance and gratitude of the sacrifi ce made for them by the Lord (Acts 20:7). Th ey contributed of their means so that the Lord’s work could be carried on (I Corinthians 16:1–2). Th ey sang praises to God, prayed and heard the Word of God proclaimed. Th ese were the things that were done by early New Testament Christians because they came for the purpose of worshipping the Great Creator and Savior. Jesus said, “But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.” ( John 4:23) To worship in “spirit” means to worship from the heart and to worship in “truth” means to worship according to the truth or God’s Word ( John 17:17 - Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.) So, I ask you again my friend, “Why do YOU go to church?” Please join us this Sunday morning for worship services as we gather around the throne of God’s grace to worship the Almighty.

Mary Louise (Cook) BarkerMary Louise (Cook) Barker, age 93
of Sewanee, died July 11, 2010, after a brief illness. She was born August 18, 1916, in Elma, N.Y. She spent most of her life in Detroit, Mich., where she met and married David S. Barker and gave birth to her only child, Douglas Cook Barker. She moved to Sewanee in 1980. She was a devoted member of Otey Memorial Parish Church, an avid gardener, fl ower enthusiast, and passionate player of bridge. She vol-unteered at the Hospitality Shop and was a proud member of the Sweet 16s, a group of Sewanee friends born in 1916. She was a fabulous cook, a die-hard Atlanta Braves fan, a voracious reader and rarely met a crossword puzzle she couldn’t conquer. She was preceded in death by her husband, Dave; and younger brother, Robert “Bob” Cook.
She is survived by her son, Doug (Linda) Barker of Sarasota, Fla.; two grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren.
Memorial services will be held at Otey Memorial Parish in August (exact date will be announced). In lieu of fl owers, donations can be made to Otey Memorial Parish in her name.

SSMF’S Action-packed Finale from page 1 . . .
The Alzheimer’s Association will be holding its annual Memory Walk on Saturday, Sept. 25, in Tullahoma. People are encouraged to participate by forming a team or walking as an individual. This is an opportunity for people to be proactive about a disease that leaves no survivors. There is no cure, but the association and its supporters seek to raise awareness and funds through Memory Walk to provide hope, education and support to caregivers struggling with this disease.
Memory Walk is the Alzheimer’s Association’s major fund raising event, generating over 65 percent of funds needed for the entire year. According to Tiffany Maicke, Al-zheimer’s area director, a successful walk is vital to the support of local Alzheimer’s Association programs. “The Memory Walk allows us to provide services and emotional sup-port to those affected by Alzheimer’s disease in our area,” said Maicke.
Funds raised during Memory Walk will benefit programs and services for local Alzheimer families and caregivers. The Alzheimer’s Association provides support to families through 24-hour help-line assistance, caregiver respite fund-ing, support groups, counseling and referral, newsletters, educational materials and programs, Safe Return program, speakers bureau, advocacy
Alzheimer’s Association Memory Walkand research.
Join the fi ght to raise funds and awareness by walking in the Coffee County Memory Walk on Saturday, Sept. 25, at Frazier McEwen Park in Tullahoma. For information call (931) 455-3345 or (800) 272-3900 or visit <www.alz.org/altn>.

Franklin County Schools’ New Policies from page 1 . . .to 400.” He believes that the various types of discipline problems related to students’ misbehavior will not be solved by the new dress code.
According to Ford, after commit-tees of administrators and teachers met at North and South middle schools and at FCHS close to the end of this school year, all three commit-tees concluded that a stricter student dress code would improve students’ behavior. Sharber met with each of the three committees and reported to the board that they all recommended the new student dress code.
Parents and students may read the revised policies online at the Franklin County Schools’ website: <www.fcstn.net>, where policy titles are listed on the left side of the home page under the heading “New for 2010–11.”
Key parts of the student dress code are the following: “A uniform dress code is in effect at the middle schools and high schools. The uni-form dress code will include khaki pants or skirts or appropriately sized jeans with no holes. Pants will be belted at the waist when appropri-ate. Shirts will be collared or crew necked with sleeves and with logos no larger than 2 inches. Shirts will be tucked in the pants or skirts or, at the discretion of the school, allowed to be worn on the outside if worn neatly. School spirit wear [such as T-shirts with South or North Middle School or FCHS logos larger than two inches] will be considered appropriate attire. Each school will form a committee that may also submit a variation in
the uniform dress code for approval by the director of schools.
“The following specifi c expecta-tions have been established to help create and maintain the best learning environment:
1. All clothing must be clean, ap-propriate for school, and size appro-priate. Clothing must not have holes, be cut-off, ripped, or see-through. Inappropriate logos are not allowed. Inappropriate logos include, but are not necessarily limited to:
• Discrimination against any indi-vidual or group;
• Promotion of violation of school rules;
• Depiction of the use of drugs, tobacco, or alcohol; and
• Encouragement of violence, gang/cult affi liations, and the use of weapons or intimidation.
2. Shorts and skorts may not be worn by either males or females as normal school attire after completion of elementary school. Capri length pants are allowed.
3. Skirts and dresses shall be knee length when the girl is standing erect. Slits in dresses or skirts shall not exceed three inches above the front and/or back of the knee.
4. Pants must be worn above the hip-bone; sagging/bagging is not al-lowed. At this time, low rider and hip hugger style pants are permissible.”
The board also passed a dress code policy for personnel, including all staff members and school bus driv-ers and assistants. It says, “Teachers will dress in a professional manner.”
The entire policy is available online at <www.fcstn.net>.
The F.C. schools’ cell phone policy for students has changed in the fol-lowing ways:
“School employees who discover a student using a phone or other per-sonal communication device in viola-tion of this [the use of cellular phones and other personal communication devices in school] policy shall report the violation to the principal. Viola-tion of this policy will result in the student’s cell phone being confi scated for seven days. Students may choose to have their cell phones returned before the end of the seven days by paying a twenty-five dollar (cash only) fi ne at the end of the school day in the main offi ce.
“If a student fails to relinquish his/her cell phone to the teacher or the principal, the student will be automatically sent to the Alternative Learning Center for 20 days. Addition-al disciplinary/corrective actions may be taken to ensure that instructional time is protected and that safety is not compromised.
“Students who use the camera component of the cell phone are subject to additional disciplinary measures, as well as reported to the appropriate law enforcement agency, if deemed appropriate.”
All school policies affecting stu-dents will be printed and included in the Franklin County Code of Behavior. When parents sign this document each year, they acknowledge that they are fully aware of all the policies.
In other business, the board passed the annual budget as submitted with one addition, proposed by Ford, that the school district will hire a full-time social worker for the 2010–11 academic year with compensation comparable to a teacher’s salary. The social worker will serve students in all the schools and when necessary will make home visits.
Fifth District representative Ford will attend his last board meeting on August 12, marking the end of his term. The election of new members to the F.C. school board will be held on Thursday, Aug. 5. The only candidate running for the District 5 seat is Chris McDonough, associate professor of classical languages at the University of the South.

Weldon Payne will be at the Ar-tisan Depot Gallery in Cowan on Saturday, July 17, from 3 to 6 p.m. to sign copies of his fi ction novels “Lonesome Time,” “Little Boys Bad,” and “Beyond the Rain.” Payne, a resident of Manchester, is the former publisher of the Manchester Times newspaper, and his column “Through the Pane” still appears in that paper as well as the Tullahoma News.
“Lonesome Time,” set in rural Alabama in the 1930s, is the fi cti-tious story of a farm woman’s brief life, her love for Harry Kemp and for the son he never saw. The author presents kaleidoscopic views of Mary Louise’s life drawn from a mixture of past, present and future tenses, which Payne says is the way we recall events of our lives.
“Little Boys Bad” is a fictional account of the loss of innocence and redemptive love as Payne delves into Ray Atkins’ drift into bitter antisocial behavior after his family moves from a farm to an Alabama coal-mining village in the 1930s. At the heart of the story, the focus is on two compassion-ate women whose influence offset his negative sense of neglect and alienation and lead the “lost kid” to a more constructive lifestyle. “I grew up surrounded by coal mines,” the writer says, “so I chose this physical environ-ment for the story, which I intended as an honest but not true account of a kid getting on the wrong track.”
“Beyond the Rain” is the story of middle-aged Edna Marie King’s life as she cares for her aging mother who suffers with dementia. Siblings live in other states and turn deaf ears to Ed-na’s reports of Mama’s deteriorating condition. One night Johnny Scog-gins’ truck breaks down nearby, and the Vietnam veteran brings a brief glimmer of hope to Edna’s despair. As Mama King’s dependency worsens, Edna is overcome by hopelessness before she discovers the strength to make a compassionate decision that allows her to truly love her mother.

Children Enjoy a Super Summer
Show About Science
Mr. Rich of Super Science, <supersciencetn.com>, recently visited the Franklin County Library for a Super Summer Show for toddlers and preschoolers. A’ndrea Fisher from Sewanee, along with her 3-year old daughter, Dakota, and 1-year-old, Maverick, all participated in an experiment.
Tina Stevens, library youth ser-vices director, reports, “They placed dry ice and a little water inside a fi lm canister and fastened the lid. The wa-ter melted the dry ice and released the carbon dioxide, a gas. Pressure built because the small container was lid-ded tightly. The result... KAPOW! The lid popped right off to the amazement of everyone. Do it again, Mr Rich!”

Set in the French Antilles of the Caribbean, “Once on This Island” is a musical about a peasant girl who dreams of fi nding true love. The Per-forming Arts for Children and Teens (PACT) of the South Jackson Civic Association will present the produc-tion on Friday, July 16, at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, July 17, at 2:30 and 7:30 p.m.; and Sunday, July 18, at 2:30 p.m. in the South Jackson Civic Center, Tullahoma. Tickets are $10.
The musical’s story is based on “My Lover, My Lover,” a novel by Rosa Guy. Lynn Ahrens wrote the play and song lyrics, and Stephen Flaherty composed the music.
The cast will enter the stage on a rope bridge and climb a giant tree, the Tree of Life. “We are pulling out all the stops on this set and may even throw in a waterfall,” says Mike Sneed, set advisor for the Community Play-house and South Jackson. Costumes, props and set are stylized to represent the Caribbean’s colorful, lively cul-ture, including the sun, moon, stars, mangoes and frogs.
Coleen Saunders, advisor to PACT, says, “Where else can you enjoy a play that combines aspects of ‘Romeo and Juliet’ and ‘The Little Mermaid?’ Nurturing the up and coming artists in our area is the prime mission of our Performing Arts for Children and Teens program. This play has the potential of doing just that by team-ing veteran mentors with newcomers. We have veterans of our stage, as well as several from Motlow and other regional art groups, together with many newcomers.”
The South Jackson Civic Center is located at 404 S. Jackson St., Tul-lahoma. For information on purchas-ing tickets, visit the website: <www.southjackson.org>.

Burns switched between anchor-ing the defense and the midfield this season, creating a strong front that was hard for opponents to penetrate.

Most area residents know that Jump-Off Road is a long route with no shoulders. Traffi c moves fast. Bicyclists on the road are in danger and in some spots can actually cause danger.
Highway 156 is a state-designated “Bike Route”. A request has been submitted to the Tennessee Depart-ment of Transportation (TDOT) to create a bike lane along Jump-Off Road (Highway 156) that would travel from the Mountain Goat Trail at the St. Andrew’s-Sewanee School intersection to the Franklin/Marion State Forest.
TDOT says there is a lot of competi-tion for funds for these projects. The task is to prove great public support for adding a wide shoulder to the road to make it safe for bikes and pedestrians to use the road. A petition has been created and is circulating to show the area residents’ support for the creation of a bike lane or a wide shoulder on Highway 156.
Jump-Off coordinators are urg-ing residents to consider signing the petition to show support for making Jump-Off Road safe for bicyclists. Cop-ies of the petition are available at Julia’s on University Ave., Woody’s Bike Shop, the Sewanee Community Center and

Nature NotesHummingbird or Sphinx Moths
If you see what looks like a tiny hummingbird feeding on the nectar of fl owers in your garden or woods, you are enjoying the Hummingbird Moth, which feeds while beating its wings as it goes from fl ower to fl ower like its namesake, Harry and Jean Yeatman report. This moth is also called a Clearwing Sphinx. The adult moth emerges from its
underground pupa with tiny scales on its wings, but these soon wear off, leaving transparent wings with black borders. This is a true sphinx moth and the caterpillar looks like more typical sphinx caterpillars. It is green and segmented, with a “horn” at its rear end. The female moth lays her eggs on viburnum or
hawthorn bushes, on which the caterpillars feed. When these caterpillars are a couple of inches long, they dig a hole in the ground, climb in and molt to form a pupa. During the summer, several broods of caterpillars are produced in short times of pupal stage before emerging. In winter the pupa hibernates in the ground until spring. Besides looking like and behaving like a hummingbird, it is sometimes mistaken for a bumblebee because of its greenish back. This resemblance offers some protection from bird enemies and predaceous insects. Janet Graham photographed one of these moths (in lower right corner of photo) getting nectar from a magenta bergamot fl ower, also known as bee balm.

From Bard to Verseby Scott and Phoebe Bates
July 15 — St. Swithin’s Day
It is today Saint Swithin’s Day,On which, if that it rain, they say,Full forty days after it will,Or more or less, some rain distil. —from Poor Robins Almanac, 1697
Our love was like most other loves—A little glow, a little shiver;A rosebud and a pair of gloves,And hanky panky by the river;Some jealousy of someone’s heir;Some hopes of dying broken-hearted;A miniature; a lock of hair;The usual rows; and then we parted.
—from “The Belle of the Ball” by Winthrop Mackworth Praed (d. July 15, 1839)
