LANGUAGE OF FLOWERSAre you thinking of sending fl owers to someone special on Val-entine’s Day? You may want to check out of the meaning of some of our favorite blossoms before doing so! • Floriography, or the language of fl owers, began during the Vic-

torian era, when individuals used fl ower symbolism to express feelings they were unable to speak aloud, or wanted a discreet form of communication. Various blooms were used to send secret or coded messages of love and other sentiments. Flower dictionaries containing the meanings of diff erent varieties fi lled the shelves as the long list grew.

• Most of us know that sending red roses denotes enduring, pas-sionate romantic love, meant for the love of your life. Pink roses are for a lesser aff ection, and yellow are to be used to symbolize the joy of a devoted friendship. While white roses represent pu-rity and virtue, a bouquet of mixed red and white roses is used to designate unity with your loved one. Can’t aff ord a dozen roses? Just a single red rose in full bloom also says, “I love you.” Trying to tell your loved one it was love at fi rst sight? Lavender roses are the symbol for that sentiment.

• Blue fl owers are used to send a message of calm, beauty, tran-quility, and peace. Specifi cally, blue hyacinths indicate constan-cy and faithfulness, as do blue violets, which represent faithful-ness and say, “I’ll always be true.” If violets are unavailable, blue forget-me-nots also let the recipient know that your love is true.

• Th e towering stems of gladioli are symbolic of a sword, and they even take their name from the Lain word gladius, mean-ing “sword.” A bouquet of these stunning spikes expresses to the recipient that he or she has “pierced the giver’s heart with passion.”

• If your sweetheart is a rare beauty, send her the gift of orchids. Perhaps there is someone to whom you’d like say, “You’re lovely,” but you want to do it secretly, without divulging your identity. Th e gardenia is an excellent symbol for this purpose. Asking to have your aff ection returned? Deliver jonquils, a fragrant mem-ber of the narcissus family.

• Is there an individual who you highly respect? A sunny bunch of daff odils will convey that message. However, if you’re trying to tell your egotistical acquaintance, “You love yourself too well,” have the fl orist deliver narcissus.

• Who wouldn’t want to receive a bouquet of primroses? Th eir message is, “I can’t live without you.” Similarly, white lilies pro-claim, “It’s heavenly to be with you,” and Calla lilies are repre-sentative of “magnifi cent beauty.”

• Perhaps you’ve off ended your loved one. Sending purple hya-cinths says, “I am sorry, please forgive me.” Receiving striped carnations means a refusal to an off er of aff ection, and declares, “Sorry, I can’t be with you.”

• You certainly don’t want to receive a gift of foxglove, symbolic of insincerity, or a Venus fl ytrap, representing deceit, or rhodo-dendron, meaning danger or caution. Likewise, marigolds are a declaration of jealousy.

• Are you thinking of a dear but absent friend? A bouquet of mixed pansies will convey those remembrances. Th e pansy even takes its name from the French word, pensée, meaning “thought or remembrance.”

• Be careful about sending orange blossoms to a newlywed couple – it’s a wish for their fertility! A gift of peonies to any married couple is a hope for continued happiness.

Just over a year ago, when Big Message Publishing realized that coupons in Tidbits of Baldwin County were gaining in consumer popularity and marketing effectiveness, the need for a companion coupon book seemed like a necessity. The mission to add a coupon page to each of the three Tidbits sections evolved into developing a high quality coupon book for the Baldwin County area. Coupon Bytes was born - keeping in mind that a free monthly publication, in a coupon book format, would continue to offer savings to the consumer and introduce affordable sales and marketing options to local businesses.

In November of 2012 the Coupon Bytes prototype hit the ground. Customers were thrilled with the sample and were quick to jump on board with the new publication. In December of 2012 the first Coupon Bytes book was released to over 1000 distribution locations in Baldwin County. The response was overwhelming and by the most recent run date of February 2013 the book almost doubled in size, growing from 16 to 28 pages. Coupon Bytes offers savings on dining, retail items, golf, seafood and services, just to name a few.

A Season to RememberBy Dighton Head

I was reared on a farm in upstate New York where “everybody!” hunts deer in season, so when Nance and I purchased our lot in Goochland County, Virginia, I was ecstatic to learn that our nine acres were sur-rounded by over twelve-hundred acres of prime wildlife habitat. Anoth-er piece of trivia not wasted on me is, that in VA, a landowner need not purchase a license to hunt his property.

Needless to say, shortly aft er the house went up a permanent tree stand appeared at the back of our lot with about thirty yards’ visibility in all di-rections! Since I taught full-time in another county, I knew my hunting would be limited to weekends, plus Th anksgiving and Christmas breaks, so I set my expectations low. Amazingly, my meager eff orts have been rewarded with almost a deer-a-year, and one year with two. Th e fact that I couldn’t participate with a group of like-minded souls has also proved less of a restriction to the enjoyment of “the hunt” than I had anticipated. In Virginia, hunting dogs are permitted, so one can enjoy the thrill of “the hunt” by merely listening to the sounds: baying hounds, gunshots progressively changing directions, and exclamations of nearby hunters. Th is year proved to be the best of all. Th e fact that our immediate plans include downsizing to a village home made it most meaningful to me. Prepare yourself. Here comes another one of those much maligned “deer stories”.

One morning about midseason, I stood at the southeast corner of our wooded lot when I heard another hunter pull up and drop off his hunt-ing dogs along the south road. As I pondered the situation, I heard a rustling in the woods from that direction. Anticipating a deer running ahead of the hounds, I raised my gun, only to be disappointed as the dogs scooted past. Moments aft er I watched them fade out of sight a shot rang out from that direction. Moving stealthily towards the scene, and aware that a missed shot could send a fl eeing deer my way, I was rewarded almost instantly by the sound of approaching movement. As I stood poised to shoot my heart jumped then sank when those pesky dogs came scampering into view.

Th ey ran up to me like they had expected me to do something, but I

was more upset with them, since they had failed to bring me the game I wanted. As we briefl y stood in mutual discontent, a buck jumping to his feet about ten feet behind me startled me! (Where he was when the dogs passed, earlier, I have no idea!) Frozen in time, I could recall an almost identical Norman Rockwell picture with dogs on one side of a hunter and a deer on the other. Apparently, the dogs hadn’t seen him, because as I turned to watch him disappear without a shot they left just as suddenly the other way!

Another day, I sat in my stand listening to diff erent hunting parties run-ning dogs in all directions when the yelping to the north began to inten-sify. Soon, one dog’s bark grew closer and simultaneously more animated. As I trained my sight in that direction his barking became so frantic I surmised that he was barking directly at the deer. Th is proved true. To my amazement there was the dog screaming at the top of his lungs while the buck faced him, antlers lowered in a threatening manner as if to say, “You’ve been chasing me all day, and I am sick of it!”

Apparently rethinking his predicament, the deer left the dog and again began to run - right past my perch. As I took aim, I noticed that one bar of antlers was missing, not a prime candidate for a trophy. Nevertheless, I couldn’t pass up a shot at a large buck running right past my stand. BANG! Down he went, behind some bushes. Hurrying down the ladder as fast as I could, safely with gun in hand, I approached the bushes, hop-ing to administer the kill shot as I have done so many times before.

To my surprise and dismay, the dog (with a big “500” tattooed on his side) arrived fi rst and spooked the buck that, it turns out, was apparently more exhausted than hurt. As he jumped to his feet and resumed his escape, I shot again. He dropped about sixty yards ahead, again in ground cover. I was running, now, trying desperately to beat “old 500” to him. Nope! You guessed it. Same scene, repeated. Only, this time he made it into the woods and was gone! So was “old 500”.

I attempted to follow, hoping to fi nd the buck passed out in a heap, but to no avail. I had to quit for darkness, so I returned the next day, choosing to not leave a wounded deer unclaimed. I never found him or even a sign of blood, so my theory is that I subconsciously wanted to miss the imperfect trophy, which I did. Th at’s my story, and I’m sticking to it!

Th en, on the last day I was determined to stay in my stand all day, if necessary, because I was not just a little upset for going unproductive all season. (I had seen a doe, but refused to shoot, because I hadn’t got a buck, fi rst. Also, my wife would have disowned me, if I had shot her pet!) I spent most of the day there, reading a paperback, critical of the Church by Michael Brown, entitled “How Saved are We?” only taking short lunch/bathroom breaks.

Th e woods were quiet all day with only an occasional shot heard in the distance, until about three o’clock when a hunter dropped his dogs at the south road. I put down the paperback and decided to focus on hunting, especially since the sun was getting lower in the sky and this would be my last opportunity, perhaps forever, to hunt from my homemade, per-sonal tree stand. Shortly, I heard something approaching as I had, early in the season, when the dogs came through.

Would this be a repeat, or would my fi nal season here end with a fi ttingly dramatic conclusion? As I watched and listened, I could hear the foot-prints drawing ever closer. Still unable to see it through the low trees, I strained my eyes for the fi rst glimpse of what it was. I held up the gun; then put it down, when my arms shook with nervous anticipation, just like a young hunter with “buck fever”. I chastised myself, “Calm down, you have taken dozens of deer in your life. Quit acting like a wet-be-hind-the-ears kid!”

When the rugged four-pointer fi nally appeared I was back in my normal frame of mind; dropped him with a single shot, followed by the fi nale. Once down from the stand, I observed the buck as I approached: he only had one bar of antlers! I know he had a full set when I shot. Was my aim so bad that I had shot off one side? Turns out, the bar was so weakly at-tached that it had dropped off as he fell. (In fact, the other side came off , later, as the deer-cutter was pulling the deer off the truck!)

Talk about an exceptional season! Th is one was such that I felt com-pelled to write it down. Th is meant more to me than is immediately apparent. I felt the closeness of my personal God who understood the signifi cance of my last season of hunting from my own piece of Paradise, and provided me with truly with “A Season to Remember!”

ExcusesThe following is a letter from a Parson Jones: Attendance at church last Sunday was mighty poorly. I don’t reckon I oughta grumble cause I had a bunch of sick members and when you add to to all that my shut-ins, we didn’t have a sight of pew fellows. So I went ahead and preached to what I had. Only thing was-the echo in the near empty church hurt my ears. My madam said I needed to get out and ride awhile and let the fresh air clear my head. It done the trick. Not only did it clear my head, it made me feel right good inside. What I saw made me rejoice. I saw miracle after miracle. Ole Hezekiah who had been deathly sick that morning had roused up and riding down the highway with his fi shing poles. No, nothing but a miracle could have roused ole Hez from the jaws of death in such a short time. Rufe told me Sunday that his brother had a back which was in foul shape. They were afraid they might have to operate on him. Well, we remembered him in prayer and lo and behold at 2:00 o’clock, there he stood at the driving range hitting golf balls. If that wasn’t a miracle and a quick recovery, I don’t know what is. All told, about 20 of my sick friends had roused up and was taking nourishment in one form or another. Cont. next week

A Note From the EditorI received a phone call last week from my mother letting me know that my best friend of 32 years had lost her mother fol-lowing a six week battle with aggressive cancer. During the phone conversation my mother’s voice broke and and she began to sob quietly. I asked her not to cry because we had no doubt that Mrs. Carol was with Jesus and her tired, bro-ken body was no longer in pain and suff ering. Mom replied, “I know, but she was my friend.” Tears began to spring from my eyes and it was then that I realized I was happy for Mrs. Carol’s relief but I was extremely sad that my best friend’s mother was gone.

I made the four hour trip home Friday before the funeral and had the pleasure of visiting with my friend and her family for several hours. I had specifi cally avoided eye makeup that af-ternoon, anticipating waves of emotion and tears however the mood in the room was just the opposite. The recollection of sweet memories and sharing of family photos were followed by absolute joy and laughter.

My mother joined another family friend in tidying up the home as we continued our visit and she began dusting a large set of bookshelves behind my chair. As she removed objects from the shelf she held up a cross and said, “Carol held this in her hand all the time during her sickness. Wendell, did you notice her hands after she passed? One hand lay fl at and the other was shaped as if she were still holding the cross.” We all smiled and knew that even while staring death in the face, Mrs. Carol continued to witness, pray and speak of her excitement in lay-ing eyes upon her Savior. But most of all, through illness and her very last breath, she clung to the cross, literally.

Be blessed,Audrey Chambers
