Arrive without Travelling Nina Hagen in Ekstasy Boys and Girls John Parris, contributing editor and writer of the popular Asheville Citizen column "Roaming the Mountains," will present his "Webster Stories," stories from his column set in Webster or about Webster people, in the third program in the "Summer Evening in Webster series sponsored by the Webster Historical Society on July 21, at 5:30 in the Webster United Methodist Church. John Parris' fellow Tarheel newsman, Edward R. Murrow.said in 1955 that Parris has "just about the best assignment any reporter could wish for-roving the hills of Western North Carolina and writing a column called "Roaming the Mountains" for The Asheville CitizenTimes." Parris, who started writing for The Jackson County Journal when he was 13, left Sylva, his hometown, in 1934 to cover state events in Raleigh and Winston- Salem. United Press International sent him to London in 1941 as diplomatic correspondent, and in 1944 he covered the Allies invasion of North Africa. After the war the Associated Press assigned him to the newly formed United Nations, and in 1947 he returned to North Carolina "to write of the people and places where his roots 3 re " ' His first area book, after his war books, Springboard to Berlin and Deadline Delayed was The Cherokee Story in 1950. In 1955 he took the Citizen assignment, and for the past 30 years his thrice weekly column has appeared on the paper's front pages His reports have been compiled into five best selling books. Roaming the Mountains (if55/.' "^ Mountains, My People (1957), Mountain Bred (1967), These Stories Mountains (1972), and Mountain Cooking (1978). All of his books have been illustrated with pen and ink sketches of Western North Carolina wild flowers by his wife Dorothy Luxton, also a Citizen correspondent In 1976 Western Carolina University awarAedJ^PI is Mountain Heritage AwardIt>Parns A reception after the reading will honor Parris. Summer Evenings in Webster Harry Cagle, mountain musician, will present the second program in the Webster Historical Society's "Summer Evening in Webster" series. Cagle will play at the Webster United Methodist Church July 14, at 5:30. According to John Parris in a 1981 "Roaming the Mountains" column in The Asheville Citizen, Cagle "can fiddle the bugs off a sweet potatoe vine...can make a fiddle cluck like a hen or croon like a lovin' woman... can fiddle the heart right out of your mouth." Cagle, who lives in the family home built in 1880 by his grandfather, Civil War Veteran Harvey Evan Cagle, who later became Webster postmaster, started his music making when he was ten. Hisfirstinstrumentwasa banjo made from the bottom of his mother's tea kettle. When he finally got a "storebought" banjo, the famous Samantha Bumgarner of Love's Field, started his lesson, and he was soon playing festivals with her and another Webster old time fiddler, Rogers Coward. After some months on Dr. John R. Brinkley's Del Rio, Texas, radio station, he came back to Jackson County. Since then, while working full time in his filling station, Cagle plays almost full time at "the drop of a hat" at home, for a square dance, at a festival, at a club with "His Country Cousins" string band. "He is one of the last," according to Parris, "ofthe real old- time mountain fiddlers who sticks to the old-time music and the old- time styles." Following his concert, the Society will honor Cagle at a reception. Narrowing the CULLOWHEE-A new program to benefit school-age children and older adults developed by Western Carolina University's Center for Improving Mountain Living will be the featured program from North Carolina this fall at a Southeastern conference on aging in Charleston, SC. AgeLink is a program that will help communties in 17 Western North Carolina counties match children who need before- and after-school care with older people who love children and have the time and skills to share, said Marsha Crites, program director. Model AgeLink programs are scheduled to begin this fall in Buncombe and Macon Counties. AgeLink was selected by the Southeastern Association of Area Agency on Aging Administrators based on recommendations of the North Carolina Division of Aging Staff members. One program from each of the association's eight member states will be "showcased" at the conference Oct. 29. The states represented will be North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida , Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama and Mississippi. Approximately 11,000 children in WNC come home to empty homes every day because their working parents can't find suitable child care, can't afford it or don't believe it's necessary, Ms. Crites said. In the same area live an estimated 80,000 people 65 and over. "Older people have always been valuable resources for child care in our own country as well as in other cultures," Ms. Crites said. These older people have skills to offer, she says. "The sharing of cultural heritage-passing along quilting, woodworking, canning, songs and stories--is one focus of the program." The Macon County Program for Progress, an AgeLink sponsor, is attempting to place children with older people in a community- center location and in two family day-care homes. In Buncombe County, officials are investigating setting up an AgeLink program at an elementary school aspartofthe county's community schools program. In addition, two Jackson County groups are considering sponsoring an AgeLink program. These programs are recruiting and training older people who love children, have time and energy and want to do something meaningful, Ms. Crites said. "We've found that many older people, especially those who have retired from other parts of the country to Western North Carolina, miss children and in some cases are far from their own grandchildren." Besides providing care at a community center or school, AgeLink can work through the children's or volunteers' homes. "A lotof olderchildren would like to participate in extracurricular activities but don't have transportation," Ms. Crites said. "We might match a child and older volunteer who could help him get toscoutsor a ball game and home safely." The purpose of the program is to provide a homelike setting with activities, structure and free time, Ms. Crites said. It should not be a continuation of the school day but should provide individual attention. 'That's the kind of thing working parents worry about--that there's somebody to listen to their children. In the training sessions for volunteers, we're stressing being a good listener." For these reasons, the program provides that each volunteer care for no more than five children. AgeLink is partially funded by a grant from the James G. Hanes Memorial Fund/Foundation. Organizations such as schools, churches, community action agencies, senior centers and recreation departments that are interested in sponsoring AgeLink programs should contact Ms. Crites at the Center for Improving Mountain Living, Western Carolina Unversity, Cullowhee, NC 28723, telephone (704) 227-7492.
