organized by the Henderson-
Vance County Chamber of
Commerce, Granville County

FAT HARRY’S
by Harry Coleman
SOAP OPERA REVIEW
by Toby Goldstein
ALL MY CHILDREN something about the
Cooking Column Crossword Puzzle
While JR and Annie Balkan.
Something called “Cowboy Church” started off the days
activities at the Sunday session of the annual Harvest Days
Festival in Butner.
Providing the music for the worship session was a group
who say their music is “a little bit bluegrass and a little bit
gospel.” The group consists of Elliott Wilder, Carl Norgaard
and David Miller. They call themselves the “Veasey Ridge
Boys” in honor of the very same place where the Harvest
Festival is held which was commonly called Veasey Ridge
before Camp Butner existed. As a matter of fact the Veasey
family had been farming in southeastern Granville County
for generations before the U.S. Government in the grips of
World War II decided they had to have the land for a military
training base and prisoner of war camp.
The Veasey family loved their family farm land and their
virtually self-sufficient ways of living. They didn’t want to
move. The U.S. Government told them they had to vacate.
The price the government paid for the land was no where
near what the property was worth.
One story passed down in the Veasey family said that a
beautiful family house for a large family, two hundred acres
of land and numerous barns and outbuildings was taken by
the government for less than the appraised value of timber
on the place.
“After the war few of the original landowners got to have
their farmland restored to them,” Carl Norgaard explained.
“The soldiers who gave their lives were not the only ones who
had to sacrifice for their country in The Great War,” Norgaard
related.
The war wasn’t so great for the children of Veasey Ridge.
The singing group “The Veasey Ridge Boys” play together
only infrequently now-a-days but their spokesman said they
thought that the annual Harvest Festival was a good time to
remember the heritage of agriculture and agricultural
sacrifice that was such an important part of Butner’s heritage.
“One song that they played and sang was written about
another place but was still appropriate,” Norgaard said, in
honoring the agricultural heritage of Granville County. The
words to that song are these:
Thirty Years of Farming
By James King
There’s a little white note on the gate by the road that a
man put up yesterday.
And when we saw it we all ran out to see what it had to
say.
And when we read it our eyes filled with tears and we fell
to the cold, hard clay.
Something about the Army. Something about foreclosure.
Something about moving away.
On the post by the general store they put up a little sign.
An auction sale day after tomorrow at the end of Lincoln
line.
Thirty years of farming. Thirty years of heartache. Thirty
years of day-to-day.
My Daddy stopped talking the day the farm was auctioned.
There was nothing left to say.
My Mama’s tears fell freely down as she walked among
the buyers in the yard.
Every number the auctioneer called was like a blow to her
precious heart.
Every number the auctioneer called meant another thing
was sold that day.
While everything was auctioned we stood there watching
while they loaded it and drove it away.
Chorus
At the day’s first dawning we woke this morning.
There was nothing for us to do. Nothing in the granary.
No hay in the meadow. No cattle. No tractor. No tools.
So we loaded up the car, took the clothes we wore and a
few things we managed to save.
Mama read from the Book, We took one last look, and then
we drove away.
The song, although not written about Butner, was still
appropriate for many of those who were born and raised on
Veasey Ridge.
The Veasey Ridge Boys....
......singing thirty years of farming

Flu Season is here. It is a
regularly recurring time period
characterized by the
prevalence of outbreaks of
influenza(flu). The season
occurs during the cold half
of the year in each
hemisphere.
In the United States the
Flu Season is considered
October through May.
The exact mechanism
behind the seasonal nature
of influenza outbreaks is unclear. Some proposed
explanations are:
• People are indoors more often during the winter, they
are in close contact more often, and this promotes transmission
from person to person.
• Cold temperatures lead to drier air, which may dehydrate
preventing the body from effectively expelling virus
particles.
• The virus may linger longer on exposed surfaces
(doorknobs, countertops, etc.) in colder temperatures.
• In nations where children do not go to school in the
summer, there is a more pronounced beginning to flu season,
coinciding with the start of public school. It is thought
that the creche environment is perfect for the spread of
illness.
Recent research done by National Institute of Child
Health and Human Development (NICHD) found that the
influenza virus has a “butter-like coating”. The coating
melts when it enters the respiratory tract. In the winter,
the coating becomes a hardened shell; therefore, it can
survive in the cold weather similar to a spore. In the
summer, the coating melts before the virus reaches the
respiratory tract. (Information on Flu Season obtained from
Wikipedia)
N.C. Governor Beverly Perdue has encouraged citizens
to consider the flu vaccine according to a recent report.
“Get your flu shot here” was seen on a sign at the corner
of Park Avenue and Main Street Saturday October 2.
Maximum Healthcare, a healthcare agency’s name appeared
on the sign.
If you are interested in more information on the Flu
Season, contact your local physician, healthcare center or
health department. You may also find information on the
World Wide Web.

Your Week Ahead Horoscope
October 7 - October 13, 2010
by Lasha Seniuk
www.mysticstars.net
ARIES (March 21-April
19): Someone might
sugarcoat the situation. You
might be made to feel
helpless in the week ahead
when faced by a situation
that upsets your
relationships, but that
someone says is "for your
own good."
TAURUS (April 20-May
20): Your anxious hunt for
love is like a goldfish hunting
for water. Love is
surrounding you, but it is
invisible so you can't quite
accept it. Don't impetuously
break off a relationship this
week.
GEMINI (May 21-June
20): Your tactics are
trustworthy through thick
and thin. You might not
always be able to get your
point across to others in the
week ahead, but you will be
able to ride out any
misunderstandings like a
champ.
CANCER (June 21-July
22): You like to be seen by
others as well-fixed, wellheeled
and well-known. In
the week ahead, you might
shift your focus to home and
family and could be
prompted to entertain others
at your own table.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Get
back in the loop. If you have
been a hermit or just feeling
isolated recently, you can
mingle with others without
fear in the week ahead. The
new people you meet will
offer a refreshing change of
pace.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):
Keep your friends close and
your enemies closer.
Relationships could shift in
the week ahead, so you need
to keep your ear to the
ground. Don't loan anyone
money - especially in the first
half of the week.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):
Sometimes you are so sweet
that you are in danger of
triggering sour results. You

you work with - only to have
it backfire in the week ahead.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov.
21): If you go overboard,
there might not be a life
preserver in reach. Curtail
your spending and watch out
for little extravagances that
mount up in the upcoming
week. Unexpected changes
may cause setbacks.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21): You are a mere
mortal. Your ability to alter
the outcome is like trying to
pull the sword from the
stone. In the week to come,
you might be wise to accept
with serenity that which
must change.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
Jan. 19): Don't promise
more than you can deliver. In
your eagerness to please
other people or to win some
gold stars for your resume,
you might offer to do more
than your fair share in the
upcoming week.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18): One grain of luck can be
worth more than a whole rice
field of wisdom. In the week
to come, you might be
forewarned about outside
influences that can upset
finances. You can luckily
avoid catastrophe.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20): "Spoiled is as spoiled
does" is as apt an expression
as "Pretty is as pretty does."
You may be tempted to spoil
yourself silly in the week
ahead in the hope of
appearing more attractive,
successful or popular.

The Granville County
Citizens Advisory Committee
for Environmental Affairs has
announced that they will work
to recommend to the Granville
County Commissioners a
county composting facility
with the objective of diverting
organic waste from the landfill
to a composting facility.
The committee met recently
to discuss developing a
composting plan for Granville
County with Michael Scott, of
the North Carolina
Department
of
Environmental and Natural
Resources, Division of Waste
Management, Solid Waste
Section.
The Granville County
School System has reportedly
hired a recycling coordinator
and begun work to
dramatically increase the
amount of recycling efforts
particularly of their food
services agencies.
The City of Creedmoor has
recently begun delivering
larger recycling containers for
their recycling program.

About Letters
Attention to do more with
recycling is one thing local
governments can do while
money is tight. Some things
like using recycled office
paper might actually be more
expensive for local
governments but doing the
planning for what to do when
resources are available is a
good use of the time of our
elected officials. If items can
be diverted and kept out of
our landfills the reduced cost
in not having to replace those
landfills can be dramatic.
There are things that each
of us can do in our own
households to reduce waste
and reuse what is possible.
What is needed to start
this effort is education, especially
to the young people
which can help them become
good stewards of the earth
they occupy.
There are things that each
of us can do to improve the
way we treat the earth.
The time to get started is
now!

For Perdue, Blunders
And Opportunities
Smart politicians have
a knack for turning blunders
into opportunities.
In her first two years in
office, Gov. Beverly Perdue
probably wouldn’t rank high
on most people’s list in that
regard.
Poll after poll tag her
with low job approval
ratings. She’s had to address
scandals at the State
Highway Patrol and
questions about campaign
flights. Too often, she’s
appeared indecisive.
Meanwhile, her political
party is trying to withstand
strong winds blowing the
opposite direction, just a
month before mid-term
elections.
This past week, though,
Perdue looked the role of
strong chief executive. She
took a couple of blunders
within her administration
and turned them into
opportunities to show that
she’s attuned to the people
she’s governing.
First, Perdue sacked her
revenue secretary, Ken Lay,
during a brouhaha over a
decision that would have
We continue to work in
North Carolina on ways to
help the people of our state
stay healthy. This is
complicated, but we make
progress every year. This
week, I wanted to share some
of the changes we made in
health policy so that you can
learn more about what we are
doing and what is available.
This is not all that we have
done, but it does include many
of the highlights.
If you have any questions
or if I can be of service to you,
please contact me. Thank you
as always for your interest in
North Carolina and state
government.
Mental Health
• While we had to balance
our budget and trim spending
in many areas, we believed it
was important to continue
trying to improve our mental
health services by providing
more local options. For that
reason, we increased funding
for local inpatient beds for
mental health patients by $9
million to $29 million and
directed that the money be
spent equitably throughout
the state. (SB 897)
• We extended the First
Commitment Pilot Program
until October 2012 and
authorized the expansion of
the program to up to 20 local
mental heath management
groups. The program allows

Lay’s
blame is
debatable,
but he
was the
top guy
within
the department. He also
failed to understand that
trying to deflect criticism
upstream wasn’t going such
a good idea.
Perdue’s quick response
ˆ overturning the decision
and then replacing Lay ˆ is
the kind of non-nambypamby
leadership that
voters expect of the elected.
Perdue also waded into
the mess over the state
Employment Security
Commission, where $28
million in overpayments had
gone out to 38,000
unemployment workers, the
result of an administrative
error. The agency had begun
sending out notices and
withholding new benefits to

physicians to conduct such
exams. The act also directs
the Division of Mental Health/
Developmental Disabilities/
Substance Abuse Services to
expand its training
requirements to include
refresher training and to
evaluate the participation
rate of eligible examiners.
(SB 1309)
• The North Carolina
Institute of Medicine has been
asked to put together a task
force that will study the needs

effectiveness of supportive
housing as an alternative to
institutionalization of people
with mental health,

abuse problems. The study
would examine whether
such housing would help
reduce the number of
emergency room visits and
hospital admissions,
improve treatments and
decrease homelessness,
among other outcomes. (SB
900, Part XVIII)
Nutrition and Wellness
• The Joint Legislative
Program Evaluation
Oversight Committee has
been authorized to study the
operation and indirect costs
of the Child Nutrition
Program. The program
provides meals to children
through their schools. (SB
1152)
• The Division of Social
Services has been asked to
study and recommend ways
to expand and enhance the
in the state Senate, David
Hoyle. Fetzer said the choice
was just another example of
cronyism from Democrats.
Fetzer has a point.
Cronyism and nepotism have
surely played a role in plenty
of executive agency
bumbling, both recent and
past.
In this case, though, Hoyle
has both the political acumen
and policy background, as the
longtime Senate Finance
Committee co-chair, to do the
job. The bigger question that
the appointment raises is
whether the Perdue
administration is now
signaling that it will bend
over backward for corporate
taxpayers.
Hoyle, a developer and
businessman, is a natural ally
for those taxpayers.
The answer will play out
over time.
More importantly for
Perdue, for the first time in a
while, she looked firmly in
charge. There’s probably only
one explanation: The lawyers
in her office must have been
on vacation.

CARING FOR CREEDMOOR
First Baptist Church of
Creedmoor has announced
plans for its “Creedmoor
Caring for Creedmoor” event
on Saturday, October 30,
2010. The event will begin in
the parking lot of the church
as 8 AM with volunteers
receiving assignments to
work throughout the
community of Creedmoor.
The event, part of Operation
Inasmuch, encourages the
congregation of a church to
reach outside of itself so that
it may share the love and
mercy of Jesus Christ.
Several projects have been
planned around the city
including projects at the local
school. Small teams of five to
ten members will receive an
assignment to accomplish
tasks such as mulching the
flower beds at Hawley Middle
School, repairing the Softball
Championship signs around
town or helping a widow do
minor repair work. The team
will invite those they come in
contact with to a special
worship service the following
morning at FBC Creedmoor to
hear more about all of the
projects that are completed
around the city. Teams will
include children, youth,
adults, as well as seniors.
The community is invited

SHAG & LINE DANCING
Two popular forms of
dancing are the subject of an
upcoming course at Vance-
Granville Community
College. “Beginners” Shag
and Line Dancing” classes will
be held on Monday evenings,
Nov. 1 through Nov. 22, on the
lower level of Building 9 at the
college’s main campus in
Vance County.
From 7 until 8 p.m.,
instructor Ronnie McMannen,
with the assistance of a dance
partner, Debbie Hight, will
teach Shag dancing by
demonstrating the five basic
steps. He will break down the
popular form of swing
dancing, associated with
beach music, in a step-by-step
manner. From 8 until 9 pm,
McMannen will teach line
dancing, including some of the
newest styles. Students may
choose to only attend one of
the two hours or they may
stay for the entire evening.
“This class is a wonderful
activity for couples to do
together, but it is certainly not
necessary for you to bring a
partner for either the shag or
the line dancing lessons,”
McMannen said. “It’s going to
be a lot of fun, a chance to
make new friends, and it’s
also great cardiovascular
exercise.”
The cost of the course is
$45 plus a $3 campus access/
security fee.
For more information and
to register, call McMannen at

Smoke Alarm Advice
A sound you can live with!"
NFPA offers smoke alarm
advice during Fire Prevention
Week, October 3-9, to
maximize families' safety
from fire.
Smoke alarms save lives,
and can cut the risk of dying
in a fire in half. However,
smoke alarms must be
installed, maintained and
working properly to do so.
That’s according to the
nonprofit National Fire
Protection Association
(NFPA).
The theme for this year’s
Fire Prevention Week
campaign, October 3-9, 2010.
NFPA has been the official
sponsor of Fire Prevention
Week for 88 years.

By now, most families
know that smoke alarms are
a vitally important element of
home fire safety, and have at
least one, says Lorraine Carli.
Unfortunately, far fewer
people are familiar with some
of the newer
recommendations for smoke
alarms.
Without
incorporating these updated
measures, many families may
not be as well protected from
fire as they think.
Smoke Alarms: A sound
you can live with! works to
better educate the public
about recommendations for
smoke alarms, and help
maximize families safety from
home fires, as follows:
Installation
At least one smoke alarm
should be located on every
level of the home, including
the basement, as well as in
every sleeping room and
outside each sleeping area.
NFPA strongly
recommends either installing
combination smoke alarms, or
both ionization and
photoelectric alarms, in the
home. An ionization alarm is
typically more responsive to
a flaming fire, such as a pan
fire. A photoelectric alarm is
typically more responsive to
a smoldering fire, as might
occur where a lighted
cigarette is dropped on a sofa.
Combination smoke alarms
have ionization and
photoelectric capabilities.
Whatever type of smoke
alarms you choose, they
should carry the label of a
recognized testing laboratory.
Interconnected smoke
alarms offer the best
The motorcycle show Saturday started off slow due to cold temps
but about 10 AM the gate opened and 136 bikes come through the
gate with 70 registering for the show. There were 26 different
classes of trophies given away. The rest of those attending were
there for a good time and for the 50/50 which was $1130. Some of
the door prizes included: a motorcycle lift, a $500 helmet, a battery
charger, and many food and gift certificates. All money raised for
the show was donated to Rolling Thunder Chapter 7 which went to
the POW's and MIA's. There were 12 vendors there, with everything
from jewelry to leather goods, to decals, to spare parts. The show
was sponsored by Tommy Keith of the Creedmoor Cruise-In with
the trophies being donated by Eddie Caudle from Oxford Car and
Truck. The crowd was estimated at over 750 people.
protection; when one sounds,
they all do. This is particularly
important in larger or multistory
homes, where the sound
from distant smoke alarms
may be reduced to the point
that it may not be loud enough
to provide proper warning,
especially for sleeping
individuals.
A licensed electrician can
install either hard-wired
multiple-station alarms, or
wireless alarms, which
manufacturers have more
recently begun producing. An
electrician can also replace
existing hard-wired smoke
alarms with wireless
interconnection capabilities.
Maintenance and Testing
Test smoke alarms at least
once a month using the test
button, and make sure
everyone in your home knows
their sound.
If an alarm chirps, warning
the battery is low, replace the
battery right away.
Replace all smoke alarms,
including alarms that use 10-
year batteries and hard-wired
alarms, when they’re 10 years
old (or sooner) if they do not
respond properly when tested.
Fire departments
throughout the country will be
hosting activities during Fire
Prevention Week to promote
the Smoke Alarms: A sound
you can live with! campaign
locally. These educational,
family-oriented activities can
help everyone learn more about
the power of smoke alarms,
newer options for installing and
maintaining them properly,
and ultimately, how to better
protect themselves and loved
ones from fire.
Progress Energy Warns Customers
To Be Aware of Scams
Program Energy warns
customers to beware of a
telephone-based scam that
has increased in frequency
this week. More than a dozen
Progress Energy customers
have reported since Sept. 28
that they have received
telephone calls one or more
people claiming to represent
Progress Energy or other
electric utilities. The caller,
sometimes identified as Dan,
claims the customers account
is about to be disconnected for
non-payment, and requests
credit card information from
the customer to avoid the
disconnection. In at least one
case, credit card information
was supplied, and the
information was later used
illegally.
Except in rare instances,
Progress
Energy
representatives do not call
customers, asking for credit
card information.
Other scams in recent
years have involved people
claiming to be Progress
Energy employees or
representatives, seeking
entry into a customers home.
Other than in emergencies or
safety-related issues, there
are practically no instances
when a representative of
Progress Energy would show
up at a customers home
unannounced and ask to enter
to perform work.
Progress Energy
encourages customers and
others not to open their door
for utility workers unless they
can confirm the persons
identity. Progress Energy
employees carry company
badges with photographs.
But since ID badges, vehicle
signs and clothing can be
fabricated to look authentic,
none of these is sufficient to
assure a persons identity.
If a customer has any
doubt about the identity of
anyone claiming to be a
Progress Energy employee (in
person, on the phone or via e-
mail or other electronic
media), that person should
call the Progress Energy
customer service center at 1-
800-452-2777 to verify the
employees identity.

Granville Central Drops 42-7 Decision

BCNSALES@MINDSPRING.COM
Granville Central dropped
a 42-7 decision on the road to
Randolph Henry.
The Panthers traveled to
Charlotte Courthouse
Virginia to meet the Randolph
Henry Statesmen in football.
After losing three straight
close games the Panthers
looked for another road win.
The Panthers were out
sized and out manned against
the Statesmen, but not out
hustled. Granville Central
found themselves down 19-0
early in the first quarter.
Most teams would have given
up, but not the Panthers.
Granville Central moved the
ball well down the field on
multiple occasions. Each time
they approached the Red Zone
(20-yard line) either a fumble
or interception would stop the
drive.
Martin Alston intercepted
a Statesmen pass and ran it
back for a touchdown to give
the Panthers life at the end
of the first half.
Granville Central
continued to struggle to hold
on to the ball on each
possession, but they never
gave up. They continued to
fight on defense and finally
found a way to stop the
powerful running game of
Randolph Henry.
The Panthers had success
on their last possession of the
game moving the ball 50
yards to the Randolph Henry
nine-yard line. Time expired
as the Panthers fought to
score.
No stats were available at
press time.
Granville Central will
host Northwood on October
8 th at 7:30.

midfield, frequently turning
back Butnerís attacks and
setting up Hawley’s forwards.
Ryan McGhee, Sam

worked exceptionally well
together thwarting attack

South Granville put the
squeeze on Orange 41-14 in
football on October 1st.
The Vikings defense set the
tone for the game on the opening
drive. Orange faced a fourth
down and one yard to go for the
first down. Dillon Beck and
Kenneth Walls stopped the
Panthers the running back short
of the first down. South
Granville took over at the Orange
28 yard line. Five plays later the
Vikings were celebrating their
first touchdown of the night.
Brandun Lickliter found
Matthew Fuhr open at the 18
yard line. Fuhr ran in for the
touchdown. Corey Phillips added
the extra point and South
Granville held a 7-0 lead with
7:52 remaining in the first
quarter.
A 40 yard punt by Brian
Saldana pinned the Panthers
deep in their own territory at the
four yard line. Chris Autrey
recovered the Orange QB fumble
at the two yard line and Kenneth
Walls punched the ball in for the
touchdown with 4:27 remaining
in the first quarter. Phillips was
true on the extra point and the
Brandon Fuller #10 for the South Granville JV battled for the ball
against Durham School of Arts. DSA won the match 1-0 with a
score late in the second half.

Mites Victorious
BY BUTCH MARSHBURN
The SGAA Mighty Mites
had a big come from behind
victory over the Clayton Blue
Comets Saturday 26-7. The
Viking offense struggled some
in the first half, but as usual
the defense was great all day.
Clayton scored the only points
of the first half on a fumble
return for a touchdown and
led 7-0.
The second half was all
Vikings, as they scored 26
unanswered points. Trevon
Jones got the first Viking
touchdown on the first
possession of the second half,
going in from 6 yards out and
adding the 1 point conversion
for a 7-7 tie. The Vikings
wasted little time taking
control of the game as Kris
Monroe scored on a 4 yard run
and Uriah Gregory ran in the
conversion attempt for a 14-7
lead in the third quarter.
Stephen Staton and Billy
King added fourth quarter
touchdowns to provide the
Vikings some breathing room
and finish off the Comets 26-
7.
The Viking defense was
great again this week, not
allowing Clayton to maintain
any kind of momentum.
Overall this was probably the
best defensive game the Vikings
have played so far, as several
players made big tackles.
Jones, Christopher Stainback,
Ethan Goss, Nolan Mullens and
Cody Stainback had 6 tackles
each. James Pettus had 4
tackles. Joe Delossantos and
Cameron Chestnut had 3
tackles each. Samir Williams,
Phillip Ross and Staton also
were credited with tackles for
the Vikings stingy defense.
Allison and Williams had
fumble recoveries.
The Vikings are 4-0 overall
and 3-0 in the conference. They
take on the undefeated Wake
Forest Bulldogs this Saturday
in Wake Forest.

Creedmoor Volunteer Fire Department Hosts
51st Annual Fireman’s Day
The members of the Creedmoor Volunteer Fire
Department will hold their annual Fireman’s Day,
including a parade, barbecue and homemade Brunswick
stew supper on Saturday, October 9, 2010. The day-long
event will kick-off with the Fireman’s Day Parade
through downtown Creedmoor beginning at 3:30 p.m.
Area Rescue Squads and Fire Departments, local
marching bands, civic groups and other entries will be
featured in the parade.
The dinner, which will be immediately after the
parade at South Granville High School will feature
barbecue pork, homemade Brunswick stew for $8 per
plate.
Tickets for the dinner are available from any fireman
before the event or may be purchased at the door on
Saturday.
Also a part of the Fireman’s Day celebration will be a
Bluegrass Concert beginning at 6 pm in the South
Granville High School Auditorium featuring Backyard
Bluegrass Boys and the Sourwood Mountain Bluegrass
Band.
Admission to the concert is $5.00 per person.
Donations Important
In explaining the importance of the Fireman’s Day
fundraising activities, Ray said that even though the
County Commissioners give each volunteer fire
department in the county operating funds each year
that the amounts are never enough to pay all the
expenses of the departments.
Said Ray, “The money that we make from the fundraiser
will go towards making payments on trucks and
equipment, insurance and general operating expenses.”
Citing rising costs to run the department, Ray said
that without the support of the community at the
Fireman’s Day fund raiser held each year it would be
impossible to keep the trucks rolling to fight fires.
Said Bobby Ray, “Without the support of the
community, the Creedmoor Volunteer Fire Department
could not exist - we look forward to meeting people on
Saturday, October 9th at our celebration and hope that
everyone in the community will come out and support
their volunteer fire department.”
He added, “It is important to remember that the
majority of our expenses are met through donations—in
order for our department to provide the level of service
that the citizens are accustomed to, we have to make
money on Fireman’s Day. “People have been really good
to us in the past and we appreciate it,” he added.
The Creedmoor Volunteer Fire Department has
dedicated its services to protecting the lives and
property of the citizens of the Creedmoor Fire District
since 1939.
Concluded Ray, “We are proud of our many years of
service, and we ask that the citizens remember that all
monies collected on Fireman’s Day will benefit the
Creedmoor Volunteer Fire Department and ultimately,
the citizens of the Creedmoor Fire District. Please help
support this worthy volunteer, non-profit organization
with a generous contribution.”
The firemen will gladly accept donations over and
above the price of dinner tickets on Saturday. Anyone
wishing to mail a donation to the department can do so
by sending their check to the Creedmoor Volunteer Fire
Department at PO Box 810, Creedmoor, NC 27522.

October Is Domestic Violence Month
Editors Note:
This is part of a series of articles on domestic violence and
abuse in recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
If you or someone you know is experiencing an abusive
elationship, please call Families Living Violence Free at 919-
28-3579 or 693-5700.
Domestic Violence and Abuse
Signs of Abuse and Abusive Relationships
Domestic violence and abuse can happen to anyone, yet
he problem is often overlooked, excused, or denied. This is
specially true when the abuse is psychological, rather than
hysical. Emotional abuse is often minimized, yet it can leave
eep and lasting scars.
Noticing and acknowledging the warning signs and
ymptoms of domestic violence and abuse is the first step to
nding it. No one should live in fear of the person they love. If
ou recognize yourself or someone you know in the following
arning signs and descriptions of abuse, don't hesitate to
each out. There is help available.
Understanding domestic violence and abuse
Domestic abuse occurs when one person in an intimate
elationship or marriage tries to dominate and control the
ther person. Domestic abuse that includes physical violence
s called domestic violence.
Domestic violence and abuse are used for one purpose and
ne purpose only: to gain and maintain total control over you.
An abuser doesn't "play fair." Abusers use fear, guilt, shame,
and intimidation to wear you down and keep you under his or
her thumb. Your abuser may also threaten you, hurt you, or
hurt those around you.
Domestic violence and abuse does not discriminate. It
happens among heterosexual couples and in same-sex
partnerships. It occurs within all age ranges, ethnic
backgrounds, and economic levels. And while women are more
commonly victimized, men are also abused- especially verbally
and emotionally, although sometimes even physically as well.
The bottom line is that abusive behavior is never acceptable,
whether it's coming from a man, a woman, a teenager, or an
older adult. You deserve to feel valued, respected, and safe.
Recognizing abuse is the first step to getting help
Domestic abuse often escalates from threats and verbal
abuse to violence. And while physical injury may be the most
obvious danger, the emotional and psychological consequences
of domestic abuse are also severe. Emotionally abusive
relationships can destroy your self-worth, lead to anxiety and
depression, and make you feel helpless and alone. No one
should have to endure this kind of pain -and your first step to
breaking free is recognizing that your situation is abusive.
Once you acknowledge the reality of the abusive situation,
then you can get the help you need.
Signs of an abusive relationship
There are many signs of an abusive relationship. The most
telling sign is fear of your partner. If you feel like you have to
walk on eggshells around your partner- constantly watching
what you say and do in order to avoid a blow-up - chances are
your relationship is unhealthy and abusive. Other signs that
you may be in an abusive relationship include a partner who
belittles you or tries to control you, and feelings of self-loathing,
helplessness, and desperation.
To determine whether your relationship is abusive, answer
the questions below. The more "yes" answers, the more likely
it is that you're in an abusive relationship.
