interviewing Williamson.We anticipate its going to

help improve tourism, Wil-liamson said.

Williamson said he discussed with UNC-TV the history of the flags displayed and the museums history dating back to its founder, the late George Scofield.

Williamson said he does not yet know when the museum will be featured on the television show, but said he will be told before it airs.

The Polk County Board of Commissioners approved a resolution on Jan. 7 in support of the House of Flags museum being featured on UNC-TVs North Carolina Now, which highlights interesting places in the state.

WHEREAS, the purpose of the House of Flags Museum is to properly display a unique and comprehensive historical collection of over 300 United States, military, state and in-ternational flags, including all 27 full-size official U.S. flags from 1776 to 1960, and to pro-vide educational experiences to elementary school children, high school students and adults of all ages, states the countys resolution; and WHEREAS, every weeknight UNCTVs North Carolina Now highlights the most interesting places in the state, covering a wide array of topics from the mountains to the coast; and WHEREAS, the House of Flags invites North Carolina Now to feature this unique facility, located in Co-lumbus, NC, on one of its future television shows.

The resolution, along with emails from House of Flags representatives, was part of the House of Flags recent effort to get featured on the network.

Williamson said with just the publicity the Tryon Daily Bulletin gives, the museum sees visitors from around the region.

In October 2012 the mu-seum served as host to three

flags from President Dwight D. Eisenhowers administra-tion. That three-day exhibit brought in almost 800 visitors to Columbus. Williamson said Internet publicity from such events draws numerous groups to view the national treasures inside the museum.

He said in 2007, when the museum became incorporated, the House of Flags would get the first 10 headlines within an Internet search and now its the first 20 pages.

Williamson said hes visited several national museums and people there cant believe the House of Flags was accom-plished with no public funding.

They are amazed, he said, and Im appreciative.

Located in downtown Co-lumbus adjacent to the Veterans Park, the House of Flags Mu-seum was founded on Sept. 8, 2001 by Scofield and VFW Post 9116, Columbus. The museum is the only House of Flags museum in the nation and its purpose is to teach history based on flags.

The original House of Flags Museum was located at the for-mer Green Creek School gym-nasium and a major fundraising campaign moved the museum to the former Columbus Fire Hall, donated to the House of Flags by Polk County and renovations completed through fundraising and grants. The new museum opened on Nov. 11, 2011 with fundraising ongoing to complete the second floor.

For more information about the House of Flags or to donate to the fundraising effort, visit www.houseofflags.org.

UNC-TV is North Carolinas PBS network and has been fea-turing programs and features for children and adults since 1955.

Funds derived from a local drug bust have saved Saluda residents almost $2,000 and are being used toward the purchase of rifles for the Saluda Police Department.

At their Jan. 14 meeting, Salu-da City Council members voted unanimously to use $1,950 from a combination drug bust two years ago toward the purchase of three Colt AR-15 semi-automatic .223 Remington caliber patrol

rifles.These rifles will be carried

in the departments patrol cars, said Saluda Police Chief James L. Cantrell. They are the same make, model and caliber as those rifles used by the Columbus and Tryon police departments, and by the county. The new rifles, which are on order, will provide uniformity with respect to model and caliber.

Cantrell said that the weapons would replace shotguns now car-

ried by officers on patrol. Most departments are going

away from shotguns, Cantrell said, and are opting to carry rifles. The longer-range capabili-ties of these rifles over shotguns is a big reason, he added.

These rifles, capable of practi-cal accuracy to at least 200 yards, can be safer for bystanders in shootouts, and can also help officers match the firepower of criminals. Cantrell did not know when his department would re-

Saluda purchases new weapons for police departmentceive the weapons.

According to Saluda City Ad-ministrator Erny Williams, city auditors explained the the drug bust funds, of which Saludas share was $1,950, can only be spent on certain kinds of items, and that the funds should not be carried from year to year.

Councilman Johnnie Kinard, who is in charge of the citys public safety, made a motion to spend the citys share on the rifles.

and crimes involving children.Polk County Sheriff Donald

Hill hired Det. Sgt. B.J. Bayne, who he says has hit the ground running since her start date earlier this month.

The sheriffs office recently arrested Clifford Leon Powers, 52, of Mill Spring who was charged with first-degree sexual offense on a child and sexual of-fense parental role, according to

sheriff reports.Powers is alleged to have

committed the offenses on a fe-male child under the age of 13, according to the report.

Also arrested this month was Christopher Allen Booker, 21, of Columbus who was charged with three counts of statutory rape, according to sheriff reports. Bookers arrest stems from al-leged offenses with a 15-year-old female, states the report.

Powers is out on a $25,000 bond and Booker is still in jail

on a $100,000 bond, according to sheriff reports.

Hill said its been five to six years since the sheriffs office has had a detective specifically dedicated to domestic violence, child and sex crimes. Previously, different officers were assigned to different cases as well as moni-toring the sex offender registry in Polk County.

North Carolina law requires sex offenders who have been con-victed of certain offenses to regis-ter with their county sheriff. The

sheriff collects information from the offender and court documents and enters the information into a registry database. Sex offenders throughout the state, including Polk County can be found by visiting sexoffender.ncdoj.gov.

Bayne worked with the sher-iffs office several years ago as a detective under former sheriff David Satterfield. She left Polk County to serve as assistant po-lice chief with the University of North Carolina-Asheville before returning to Polk County.

Application deadline March 15

Polk County High School (PCHS) seniors who are inter-ested in attending the University of North Carolina at Asheville may want to apply for the Frank J. & Sybil H. Giordano Scholar-ship, which covers the schooling expenses for the entire freshman year at UNC-Asheville.

Completed applications are due back to the student services department at PCHS by March 15.

This special college scholar-ship was created by Frank and Sybil Pete Giordano with Polk County students in mind. The applicants must have attended PCHS for three consecutive years. They must be residents of Polk County. In addition, the student applicant must be in the top 30 percent of his or her graduating class. The Giordano Scholarship applications can be picked up at the Polk County High School Student Services office.

Once the scholarship appli-

cant has been accepted to UNC-A, the student is interviewed by a local scholarship panel. The Giordano panels mem-bers are Polk County residents Judy Arledge, Frank Giordano, Richard Smith, John Vining and Tawana Weicker. In addition to visiting the guidance department at Polk County High, interested parents and students are encour-aged to ask any of the local panel members about this Giordano Scholarship.

According to UNC-Asheville officials, small class size, award-

winning faculty and a nation-ally-acclaimed undergraduate research program set the school apart from similar universi-ties. The campus in Asheville combines rigorous academics with practical experience such as internships and study abroad opportunities for a complete educational experience. U.S. News & World Report ranks UNC-Asheville in the top 10 public liberal arts universities in America.

EST/PEBLER, I.

Nationally known, award-winning artist Rich Nelson announces the opening of his Asheville studio in the River Arts District.

Join Nelson for an open house welcoming him to the District on Saturday, March 9, from 4-7 p.m. during the popular Second Saturday open studio tours. Light refresh-ments will be served. Nelson is thrilled to join the RAD family, and looks forward to

being energized by the palpable creativity that exudes from this exciting area.

Although Nelson is widely known as a portrait artist, he also paints landscape, still life and figurative gallery pieces. He also teaches landscape, still life and portraiture workshops. Recently a DVD still life tuto-rial by Nelson has been made available for download at his website. His portraits and gal-lery pieces have been com-

missioned by federal and state judges, universities, hospitals and major corporations as well as families who commission him to paint or draw their children.

I am endlessly fascinated by people, places and things and consider it a privilege and a challenge to capture some aspect of their essence on can-vas, Nelson said.

Nelson hails from Detroit, Mich. where he attended and

eventually taught at what is now known as The College for Creative Studies. It was at CCS where he developed his love of painting, drawing, figurative art and art history.

I work towards painterly realism; good drawing and composition, rendered with strong natural color, in such a way that you can still sense or feel the paint. The effect of

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 tongues 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. Madagascars 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 lemurs 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. Todays dollars, like most currencies, are called fiat money which means they are backed by peoples 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.
