Investigation continues into shooting By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press Carlinville Police Department continues to investigate the incidents surrounding the shooting of a Greenfield teen during the early morning hours of Sunday, Nov. 6. According to a statement from the Carlinville Police Department, no further details are being released at this time pending ongoing interviews. However,
two counts of Aggravated Battery/Discharge Firearm, a Class X felony, have been filed against Jason Hart, 43, of Carlinville. Macoupin County 911 received a call at approximately 1:48 a.m. on Nov. 6 from Joy Hart stating her husband was holding someone at gunpoint in the 500 block of Johnson Street. Upon arrival, officers found one teen severely injured with a gunshot wound
to the upper torso. Later on, another teenager was located with a gunshot wound. In all, four teens were involved in the incident. While the police have never identified the teens involved, Facebook posts indicate the severely injured teen was Greenfield High School senior Levi Stuart. According to posts from Stuart’s aunt, Pam Kerr, who is relaying information from Levi’s parents, Doug and
Robyn Stuart, the bullet went through Levi’s heart, also striking his lung and stomach as it went through his body. Stuart was taken to Carlinville Area Hospital and then airlifted to St. John’s Hospital in Springfield where he underwent emergency surgery to repair the damage caused by the bullet. Stuart continues to improve daily and a chili benefit has been scheduled for Dec. 4 at St. Michael’s
Hall in Greenfield from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. to help the family with expenses during Stuart’s recovery. The menu will consist of chili, hot dogs and dessert for a free will donation. There will also be a huge silent auction and bake sale. Emily Bishop, who is on the committee in charge of the silent auction, said the support by area businesses and individuals towards the auction has been “simply amazing.�
Greene County passes resolution supporting transportation funding plan By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press Greene County Board members unanimously approved a resolution in support of a transportation infrastructure funding plan at the Nov. 9 meeting. Greene County Highway Department Supervisor David Marth presented the resolution to the board. “This resolution is not asking for additional money from the state,� Marth said. “It is just asking for the equitable share they received back in 1983 before all of the diversions which skewed the money toward the state and other areas which came off of local monies.� Marth described the resolution as
a grassroots effort to get legislators to go back to the funding plan used in 1983. The state of Illinois contains roughly 140,000 miles of public roads, the third largest interstate highway network in the United States. In 1983, state maintained roads carried 61.3 percent of the traffic while locally maintained roads carried 38.7 percent. In this particular area, not much has changed in 31 years. In 2014, the traffic on state maintained roads was at 60.4 percent while local roads accounted for 39.6 percent of the traffic. In 1983, the revenue from Motor Fuel Tax and other motor vehicle revenue was equitably distributed with (See, FUNDING, A2)
North Greene offers Big Brothers Big Sisters program By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press North Greene School District has begun offering the Big Brothers Big Sisters program on Tuesdays from 3:15 to 4 p.m. at the high school, with no cost to the district. North Greene Principal Keppen Clanton said the district has been working on establishing the program since the end of last year. “We were approached by some members of the Ministerial Alliance who saw a need in our community for a program such as this,� Clanton said. “We agreed that is was something that we needed and decided ours would be a school-based program.� The program pairs a high school student, known as a “big,� with a student from the grade school, known as a “little,� for 45 minutes every Tuesday
afternoon after school. During this time, they help them with homework, do activities with them and basically just be a positive role model. “The really great part about this is the whole program is put together by the Big Brothers Big Sisters organization,� Clanton said. “There will be two or three adults from that program come down here each Tuesday and run the program.� Several factors went into choosing the littles. “Our grade school principal, Jackie Kuchy, was in charge of identifying students who might benefit from this program,� Clanton said. “I know some of the criteria she looked at was if the kids had any siblings, especially older siblings, if both parents worked or they come from a single parent home. Or it could just be a kid that was struggling, (See, BIG BROTHERS, A2)

Carrollton Chamber gears up for the holidays By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press The month of December is going to be a busy one for the Carrollton Chamber of Commerce, starting with the 10th Annual Home for the Holidays Christmas Parade on Dec. 2. The parade will begin at 6:30 p.m. and entries are still being accepted. “We are hoping this year’s parade is going to be bigger than ever,� Carrollton Chamber of Commerce member and parade organizer Bernie Faul said. “We are really looking forward to the interesting floats the churches always come up with, but we also welcome any other type of entry, right down to decorated bicycles.� While waiting on the parade to start, there will be plenty to see and do around the square. “There will be a number of vendors and organizations set up around the square with various items for sale again this year,� Faul said. “Some of the businesses around the square will also stay open late and be running Christmas specials.� The entry fee is $5 and the parade will begin lining up on 9th Street just south of Boyd Hospital and proceed up around the square. To enter, call Faul at 217-942-3154.

On Dec. 10, the Chamber will be holding its annual Santa Breakfast at Goetten’s Oasis. “This is something everyone looks forward to,� Faul said. “The Chamber has been sponsoring this event for many years, and each year we see more and more kids and their parents come out.� Santa will be on hand to hear what the children want for Christmas and parents are more than welcome to take their children’s picture with St. Nick. They will also receive a goody bag from one of Santa’s elves. Cost of the breakfast is $5 per person and will be served from 9 to 11 a.m. On a sadder note, the Chamber will not be sponsoring Christmas in Carrollton this year. “Due to the fewer and fewer businesses participating along with other factors, we decided we would not be doing the event this year,� Faul said. “The Chamber will still be having a drawing for Chamber Bucks which can be spent at the various Carrollton merchants.� To sign up to be entered into the drawing for one of the eight $50 in Chamber Bucks, just visit any Carrollton Chamber member business. Winners will be drawn at the Santa Breakfast and need not be present to win.

Outdoor Truths: Gary Miller
Goodness is a moral virtue
I am certain the most thankful people ought to be those who consider themselves outdoorsmen and outdoorswomen. We are the folks who get to enjoy riches that go far beyond our ability to pay for. We get to play in the backyard of God. And even though most property is claimed by an individual or entity, it is really all owned by its Creator. His handiwork is seen in every mountain and valley. He fills each hollow with animals, plants, and trees, not by chance, but according to His divine purpose. Every creation has its own unique manner that point passersby to its Designer. And if this creation could speak, there is no doubt
the first utterance from its lips would be words of praise and thankfulness. If this is true for all other creations, how much more true it ought to be for us – those made in the very image of God. Many who study science are led to believe we have merely evolved from a lower form of life – that our life is of no more value than any other. They decry therefore that we ought to treat all creation with equal goodness. And while they are right about goodness they have overlooked the fact that goodness is actually a moral virtue that must come from somewhere. Even those who deny God have something in
them that cries out for fairness and goodness, and tolerance. These are all qualities of the Creator of mankind who, once again, made us in His image. Why can’t they embrace hatred or even unfairness? It is because they have within them, as the Bible declares, “eternity in their hearts.” There is a need for mankind to espouse the greater good. Even thieves demand fairness among themselves. All of this points to the existence of God. What has this to do with thankfulness among those who love the outdoors? Outdoorsmen and outdoorswomen have forever been individuals who understand they are uniquely
blessed to be the first o n e s w h o decipher c r e a t i o n ’s cryptic message that points us time and time again to its Architect. Q Gary Miller is an outdoorsman from Harrowgate, Tenn. He serves as a pro staff member for several hunting-related companies and also speaks at game dinners and other hunting and fishing venues about faith and the outdoors. He can be reached at gary@ outdoortruths.org.
Letter to the editor
Operation Christmas plans to make Christmas brighter TO THE EDITOR: Representatives of the area churches met on Nov. 9 at the Carrollton Methodist Church Fellowship Hall to make plans for this year’s Operation Christmas drive to help the needy in the Carrollton School District. Attending from the various church were: Edwina Garrison, Robin King, Betty Brannan, Peg Schnelt, Jeanette Hartwick-Gilbert, Velma Gillingham, Lora Settles, Ruth Adcock, Marilyn Cordes, Leona Freand, Frances Coonrod, Janie Bland, Judy Winters, Joyce Keeley, Kathy Harms, Sandy Purcell, Andrea Schnelten, Gail Stumpf, Shanna Davis and co-chairmen of this year’s event, Linda Prough and Susan Postlewait. The cut-off date for adding names
to our lists of recipients is Nov. 30. Names can only be added by the pastors of the area churches or representatives of the area schools. All families must live in the Carrollton School District. Volunteers plan to set up boxes on Monday, Dec. 12; sort all can goods on Tuesday, Dec. 13; finish packing the boxes on Wednesday and Thursday, Dec. 14 and 15. Friday, Dec. 16 will be the pickup date at the Carrollton Methodist Fellowship Hall. Families will receive a letter, which must be brought in to pick up boxes. Students of the Carrollton Elementary, Carrollton High School and St. John’s schools, will be asked to collect canned goods for the boxes.
We appreciate their support. This is a community project that helps make Christmas brighter for these families. Those who wish to make a monetary donation, may do so by making checks out to “Operation Christmas”, then sending them to our treasurer, Kathy Harms, R.R.1, Box 181, Carrollton, IL 62016. If you have any questions, or would like to volunteer to help on these dates, please call the Carrollton United Methodist Church at 217-942-3445 and leave a message and one of the co-chairmen of Operation Christmas will return your call.
amount of highway user fees or additional investments that has historically been dedicated to local roads. While local agencies are receiving a smaller percentage of the funding, the costs of supplies and services to maintain the roads have dramatically increased over this 30-year time period. Concrete, asphalt and fuel have increased almost 200 percent while steel has increased 100 percent. “In order to increase funding to maintain the roads, some local municipalities have raised the amount of tax on gas which creates uneven gas tax rates,” Marth said. Currently, there is no Illinois transportation bill to begin to address and remedy this problem, nor a plan that sets clear goals, strategies and funding requirements to fix the problem. The resolution of support for a new transportation infrastructure construction
program calls for a dedicated, pay-asyou-go funding source which is necessary to guarantee a steady and predictable revenue stream to assure proper maintenance and improvement of roads. The resolution passed by the board calls for the Illinois Department of Transportation to collaborate with local transportation officials to develop an Illinois Transportation Plan. The initiative is designed to eliminate all transportation funding diversions, transfers and sweeps for other agencies or purposes and includes adoption of an Illinois Transportation Bill requiring the distribution of new revenue from Illinois highway user fees and other Illinois transportation investment at 80 percent highway and 20 percent transit split with highways funding sub split at 60 percent for the state roads and 40 percent for local roads, similar to the split in 1983.
started in two weeks ago, I have had several more come to me wanting to be bigs.” Right now there are 12 littles in the program but Clanton hopes to see that number increase. “As with anything new, you want to start out small and grow over time,” she said. “This program will go throughout the school years and we are hoping it will grow and we will be able to add more littles and keep growing our bigs.” The yearly cost of operating the program is upwards of $400 per student, which is another reason the program is starting out small. “This is all a self-funded program so it’s not costing the district anything at all,” Clanton said. “I know the Ministerial Alliance is going around to the area churches to have perhaps have their members ‘adopt’ a little and make a donation to take care of that little’s activities for the year. They are also going to be having
some fund-raisers to pay for the program.” The Big Brothers Big Sisters organization takes care of all of the paperwork involved in the program. “They even interview the littles and their families and take care of all of the paperwork involved with getting them in the program,” Clanton said. “For the past two weeks they have been watching bigs interact with the littles to find a good match for the kids.” Anyone at the high school level can be a big. “It can be an athlete or it can be that quiet kid that sits in the the back of the corner that you never hear much from,” Clanton said. “Or, it can be someone that is strong academically. Statistics have found that with this program anybody involved, whether it be a big or a little, their growth academically and behaviorwise is just phenomenal because they have that role model and support.”
Big Brothers (Continued from A1) either academically or behavior wise, and they just needed a good role model to hang out with.” So far, there are 12 littles in the program and nine high school students have signed up to be bigs. “They came down here and held a training session with our bigs as to the expectations and things that they need to do with their littles,” Clanton said. “For the first two weeks they all just met together as a group, but this week they are going to start pairing the bigs with the littles.” Clanton said there was quite a bit of interest among the high school students. “We originally had 15 kids sign up but when we actually had the first training some of them were involved in extracurricular sports so they weren’t able to make it,” she said. “Right now we have nine signed up for the program but since we

Funding (Continued from A1) 69.7 percent going to the state for upkeep of the roads they maintain and 31.8 percent distributed to agencies maintaining local roads. In 2014, however, 56 percent of the funding went to maintain the state roads while local agencies only received 21.5 percent of these monies. Around 22.5 percent of this funding was diverted to other state agencies. “The Illinois General Assembly has ‘swept’ funds that were raised and dedicated for our roadways and used them for non-transportation such as underwriting salaries in various state agencies,” Marth said. “They have also used this funding for ‘partly’ related transportation funding, such as Illinois State Police funding.” While diverting transportation funding to other state agencies, at the same time the state has not kept up on the

Table Talk starts back up on Sunday, Nov. 20 By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press Table Talk will begin its second season on Sunday, Nov. 20 with a Thanksgiving dinner at the Boyd Hospital dining room from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Table Talk is the brainchild of Carrollton resident Bernie Faul who started the once-a-month third Sunday get together for senior citizens last January. Faul said she came up with the idea of Table Talk because her mom used to mention how lonely and long Sunday afternoons were, especially in the winter. “My mom used to say in the winter time how lonely and long the weekends were because the Senior Citizens Center was closed and she missed that socialization,” Faul said. “During the summer months, they can get out and go to the park and sit on the benches and visit with people, but they can’t do that in the cold
winter months.” Faul said money is also an issue for some senior citizens. “The end of the month can be especially bad, especially for those on fixed incomes who might not have the extra money to go out for a meal,” she said. “I just wanted to provide them with a nice meal and an opportunity to socialize.” The meal is free, but free will donations are accepted for those who are able to afford it. This money goes towards the purchase of food for the following month. “I was very impressed with how people stepped up to volunteer last year,” Faul said. “Whether it was a donation of food or helping us serve the meal.” The meal is prepared in the Boyd Hospital kitchen by their cooks and Faul and many other volunteers serve the meal at the tables to those in attendance. “I just want them to come out, sit down and be served a nice hot meal,” Faul said.
“After the meal, we try to have some sort of entertainment for them whether it be music from a musical group or chorus or bingo or other board games – just something to get them out of the house on a Sunday and be with people.” Transportation will be provided again this year for those seniors who do not have a way to get to the meal thanks to Home Instead Senior Care. “Home Instead volunteered last year to pick up those who didn’t have a ride up here and they have very graciously offered to do it again this year for us,” Faul said. Anyone who would like a ride to the Nov. 20 meal should call 618-639-2273 no later than Nov. 16. While not mandatory, Faul said she would appreciate it if those planning to attend would RSVP. “We just want to make sure we have enough food for everyone,” she said.
“They can either call me at 217-942-3154 or the dietary department at the hospital at 217-942-6946 or sign the sheet located at the Senior Citizens Center.” On the menu for Sunday is turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, Jello whip and pumpkin bars. Following the meal, Miss Greene County Fair Olivia Schnettgoecke will be calling bingo beginning at 1 p.m. Special entertainment will be presented at the Dec. 18 Table Talk with the Carrollton school chorus performing Christmas songs. “We don’t really have the entertainment lined up for the other months, but we would welcome anyone who would like to perform for our seniors,” Faul said. “We will be having Table Talk on the third Sunday of the month through April so there will be plenty of opportunities and I know we have some really great talent out there.”

LCCC earns third Illinois Governor’s Sustainability Award Lewis and Clark Community College is a recipient of the 2016 Illinois Governor’s Sustainability Award, its third in five years. Administered by the Illinois Sustainable Technology Center, the Illinois Governor’s Sustainability Award is the longest running award of its kind nationwide, celebrating its 30th year in 2016. L&C previously earned the honor in 2011 and 2013. “This year, we were recognized for new and continuing efforts in energy efficiency, renewable energy, recycling, green commuting, water sustainability, education, and student and community engagement,” said Director of Sustainability Nate Keener. Most notably, Lewis and Clark reduced its energy consumption, thereby reducing its greenhouse gas emissions and saving money in the process. The college installed 108 kw of solar energy generating capacity at its Godfrey and National Great Rivers Research and Education Center campuses, an amount that is estimated to generate 140,000 kwh of electricity per year (roughly equivalent to the amount of electricity used by 15 Illinois homes). The college also reduced its paper consumption by more than six tons. Award panelists recognized the college’s recent pervious paver parking lot and bioswale project, funded by an Illinois EPA Green Infrastructure Grant, as well as the successful “Solarize Godfrey” community
bulk solar outreach program, which led to 13 new installations of solar energy generating systems at homes and businesses throughout Godfrey. Other sustainability efforts include expanded recycling options, including postconsumer food waste composting in both cafeterias and eWaste drives for the community. In the past four years, the college has recycled more than 100 tons of electronic waste. Lewis and Clark is a leader in expanding electric vehicle infrastructure, demonstrated by its organization of a nationally recognized statewide electric vehicle demonstration road trip and the installation of EV chargers on the Godfrey and NGRRECSM campuses. “This award reflects the commitment and hard work by the entire college in achieving our Climate Action Plan and sustainability goals,” L&C President Dale Chapman said. This year, 25 winners were recognized, including only two higher education institutions. Lewis and Clark was the only community college. Of the 25, 17 were repeat winners, each judged on new achievements since the last award. “This is not an easy thing to get,” said ISTC Director Kevin O’Brien. “It takes a lot of work; there is a lot of screening, and frankly, there is a lot of competition for this award.”
Local program delivers holiday spirit to area seniors The holidays are a time to celebrate the joy and warmth of the season with friends and family. The community is again being encouraged to celebrate with local seniors who may be alone during the holiday season. The Home Instead Senior Care office serving Jerseyville, Jacksonville, Litchfield and surrounding towns, is helping to facilitate Be a Santa to a Senior®, a community program that provides gifts and companionship to seniors who may be isolated from friends or family during the holiday season. The program is made possible through the generous support of area businesses, nonprofit organizations, retailers, numerous volunteers and members of the community. “The holidays can be a troubling time for seniors. They may feel the absence or the distance of loved ones,” said Becky Hatlee of the local Home Instead Senior Care office. “Be a Santa to a Senior provides a ray of hope for many seniors, and it means so much for them to know that people care and value them as members of our community.” Holiday shoppers are invited to participate in Be a Santa to a Senior by picking up a paper ornament at a participating location. Participating locations will display Be a Santa to a Senior trees from Nov. 29 to Dec. 16, which will be hung with orna-
ments featuring seniors’ first names and their desired gifts. Holiday shoppers can choose an ornament, purchase the requested gift and return it back to the location, with the ornament attached to the gift bag. There’s no need to worry about wrapping — community volunteers and program partners will wrap and deliver the gifts to local seniors in time for the holidays. “Be a Santa to a Senior provides a much-needed boost for seniors who may be isolated, not just through gifts, but through interaction and companionship,” said Hatlee. “We’re so grateful to have a community that comes together to show our local seniors they are not alone during the holidays.” Be a Santa to a Senior trees can be found at the following locations: Q Fitness World, 1521 West Walnut, Jacksonville Q Shopko Pharmacy, 1964 West Morton Avenue, Jacksonville Q Pharmacy Plus, 508 North Main, Carrollton Q First Mid America Credit Union, 300 West County Road, Jerseyville Q JCH Wellness Center, 412 Maple Summit Road, Jerseyville For more information about the program, visit BeaSantatoaSenior.com or call Becky Hatlee, program coordinator, at 618-6392273.

Historical society project and program announced A project to honor Greene County veterans, to establish a credible data base and perhaps publish a book based on submitted information is underway at the Greene County Historical and Genealogical Society in Carrollton. This project involves all county veterans, male and female, who have served in any branch of the United States military at any time during our country’s history. All citizens of Greene County Illinois who were born here, lived here or who are buried here are eligible to be included in the project. These citizens, who became soldiers to preserve our freedoms and protect our way of life, are the focus of this effort. If a veteran is deceased, a member of his or her family, or a friend or acquaintance, can submit the appropriate information. More details about the Veterans project is available at the Historical Society office
in Carrollton, on line at greenehistoricalsociety.org, on Facebook at Greene Historical and Genealogical Society, or by calling the office at 217-942-6013. The office is open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Wednesdays and Fridays. A sheet which outlines the scope of this project will be distributed Sunday, Nov. 20, at the Greene County Courthouse, when US Army veteran Steve Hopper from Greenfield, will address an assembly of well-wishers in the main courtroom beginning at 2 p.m. Steve will tell his story about life values, his service in Vietnam and his emotional return there in April of this year to retrace the footsteps of his Brothers in War. Everyone is cordially invited to attend this program, thank Steve for his service, and there is no charge. For more information Contact Larry Gillingham 217-942-9190 lavegill@frontier.com.

We will have our Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner Dec. 11 at 5 p.m. Sunday School report by Sis. Mary. Prayer. Bro. Brad led congregation in singing of hymns with Sis. Jean at piano. Bro. Gordon sang a special “How Great Thou Art.” Message by Bro. Carl from Matthew 18: 21-35. Peter asked the Lord how many times must I gorge my brothers sin against me? Jesus said “I say not
seven times, but seventy times seven per offense.” Forgive as many times as it task. God forgave us so we are to forgive others. Many times our lack of forgiveness affects our relationships. As in the parable, if we are forgiven we should be willing to forgive the trespasses against us and not demand restitution. God says if we don’t forgive others he won’t forgive us. Life is too short to hold grudges. God loves us and wants us to do what is right. Sunday evening - prayer and singing of hymns. Message by Bro. Carl from Philippians 2:9-18. Paul is saying that we should be the light of the world. Darkness cannot hide the light. If we are God’s child we should live differently than the world. We are free from the law and
should willingly follow the Lord and help to make a difference in the world. God never changes but people change and not always for the best. God wants us to do all things without grumbling or disputing. We should serve others so God will be glorified. Please pray for all churches, the lost, the sick, those in nursing homes and hospitals, those with upcoming surgeries and those recovering from surgeries, the bereaved, traveling mercies, our country and our leaders, our troops and their families and one another. Times of services: Sunday school 9:30 a.m.; Sunday morning church 10:30 a.m. ; Sunday evening church 6:00 p.m.; Wednesday evening prayer 6:00 p.m.
Walkerville Baptist Church news From the desk of Pastor David Slagle. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. Matt. 5:16 If you are a follower of Jesus Christ, you are the light of the world, let your life be a source of light that Jesus called “your good works” so the lost will be drawn to Christ in you. As I write, the revival meetings are drawing to a close. We have experienced good attendance, special music each evening, but more importantly we have been lifted to our heavenly Father and answered. Please continue to pray for each and every church in our country. I invite you to join us for Sunday morning services at 10:30 and Wednesday evening Bible study at 6:30 p.m. (Please note there will be no Wednesday evening Bible
study Nov. 23) The message today was in Matt. 5:5-16. Very good. The light of the world is Jesus. Sin is darkness. We had a good group and invite the visitors back. The question was answered really well. The question for this week was “where was the last supper held” ? The answer is “the upper room on Mount Zion”, just outside the wall of the old city Jerusalem”. This week’s question is “what is the meaning of the sabbath? Hebrews 4:8-10. The little ones came and sang “this little light of mine” and really enjoyed it. Our Thanksgiving Dinner is this coming Sunday the 20th. Turkey furnished, dressing, drinks, come as you are and enjoy the great food. Deer hunters welcome.
Our prayer list is: Pruitt family, Rich Bridges, Susie Kiefer, Ed Crabtree, Debbie Gillis, Darrell Mansfield Kevin Tavender, Melissa Brown,Robert Lawson. Betty Newman,Melanie Mast. Remember our country and it s leaders. Jesus is the light and the way and the truth. The Bible stands for ”basic instructions before, life ends on earth. Remember God’s road is all uphill, but do not tire. Rejoice that we may still keep climbing higher. Remember life is tough. but you are tougher. Everyone wants to live on the top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while climbing the hill around Walkerville. All climb to Walkerville Church and enjoy the beautiful trees. It’s been a beautiful fall, but soon over. See you in church Sunday.
Hillview Baptist Church news Bro. Jason Holliman, Pastor Alice Ford, reporter Announcements: Business meeting Wednesday evening. We just completed a good joint revival meeting with Walkerville Church. Special: “It is no Secret” Message: Romans 5: 6- 11 “Who are we in Jesus”. Without Jesus we
are ungodly. You can be a good person by worldly standards but without Jesus you’re still ungodly. Despite what is going on around us we should rejoice. We come to the house of God sometimes because we are burdened down. We all sin every day. If we know to do good things and don’t do them-that’s sin. God demonstrated His love for
us even though we were sinners. Christ died for us. By His love we shall be saved. God has power to meet all our needs. Without Jesus we can’t have that relationship with God. Do you have a good relationship with your Savior? You are always welcome at Hillview. Sunday school 9:30 a.m. Evening services 7 p.m.

Living in Two Worlds
A
“So, because you are lukewarm-neither hot nor cold--I am about to spit you out of my mouth.” —Revelation 3: 16 NIV
mbivalence, the holding of two contrary attitudes or feelings, is built into us. We are spiritual creatures who seek God while living in a material world. That there is much to love and savor about our physical existence makes the ambivalence all the more unsettling. We know that we should seek God’s kingdom first, but we hold tightly to the things of this world. How many of us could give everything away and completely trust in the Lord to provide for our needs? Ambivalence can be unsettling in many ways. Being attracted to something while simultaneously being repelled by it—think of the cheesecake that threatens to sabotage your successful diet—literally creates a mixture of positive and negative feelings that, for lack of a better word, just feels “yucky.” Psychologists tell us that positive and negative feelings tend to be processed by different sides of the brain, and those uncomfortable feelings of ambivalence are literally caused by our simultaneously experiencing opposing emotions. It would perhaps be better if the right hand did not know what the left hand was doing, but alas, we cannot ignore or hide from ambivalence. It is everywhere, in our significant relationships, in our passions and values, and in our very being. But where possible, we should minimize it. We can’t love our enemies as much as our friends and we shouldn’t love the world as much as we love God. – Christopher Simon

Let video game ratings help guide holiday gift purchases
File photo
Video games have long been some of the most popular holiday gifts to give, and this year figures to be no different than years past. Gaining a greater understanding of the video game rating system can ensure shoppers they find ageappropriate games for the youngsters on their holiday shopping lists. Video games are rated by the Entertainment Software Rating Board. The ESRB is an independent, self-regulatory organization that assigns age and content ratings, enforces industry-adopted advertising guidelines and ensures responsible online privacy principles for computer and video games in the United States, Mexico and nearly all of Canada. The ratings provided are concise and help shoppers make informed decisions based on the content in video games. According to the ESRB, the ratings have three parts: 1. Rating categories suggest age appropriateness. 2. Content descriptors indicate content that may have triggered a particular rating and/or may be of interest or concern. 3. Interactive elements inform about interactive aspects of a product, including the users' ability to interact; the sharing of users' locations with others; the sharing of personal information with third parties; the completion of in-app purchases of digital goods; and/or level of restriction of internet access. This rating system was derived in 1994 after various child development and academic experts were consulted. Other rating systems also were considered, and the ESRB consulted with parents nationwide as well. There are currently seven different ESRB ratings for games and apps. They are as follows: Q C: Early childhood games feature content that is intended for young children. Q E: Games rated as Everyone feature content
that is generally suitable for all ages. There may be minimal cartoon, fantasy or mild violence. Mild language may be infrequent. Q E 10+: Content in games rated Everyone 10+ is appropriate for gamers ages 10 and up. The games may contain cartoon, fantasy or mild violence. Mild language and/or minimally suggestive themes also may be present. Q T: Teen games are generally suitable for ages 13 and up. These games may contain violence, suggestive themes, crude humor, minimal blood, simulated gambling, and some strong language. Q M: Games deemed as Mature are generally suitable for gamers ages 17 and up. In such games, there is a high propensity for intense violence, blood and gore, sexual content, and strong language. Q A: Adults-only games have content suitable for adults ages 18 and up. Graphic sexual content, prolonged scenes of intense violence, and gambling with real currency may be depicted or available in these games. Q RP: Games that are marked Rating Pending have not yet received a final ESRB rating. Usually this verbiage is only used in marketing materials, and the rating will be updated once the product hits the market. Along with the general rating, the ESRB uses content descriptors to further break down the type of content one can expect in the games. These can include everything from references to alcohol to fantasy violence to sexual themes to tobacco references. Again, these content descriptors will offer a concise way to assess if a game is appropriate for a particular gamer. Video games are popular holiday gifts. Game ratings can help guide consumers to make smart choices so that gamers of all ages can enjoy their gifts this season.

Weekly meal plans may save money Meal plans provide a clever way to save money on food. Knowing the meals that will be made and which ingredients need to be purchased for these recipes eliminates floundering and impulse purchases at the supermarket. Knowing exactly what to buy and when also can eliminate food waste and spoilage. According to research from the University of Pennsylvania, people who can avoid impulse spending can save up to 23 percent on their grocery bills. Planning meals in advance can also provide a host of health benefits. When meals are planned in advance, shoppers have more control over the ingredients they choose and can tailor them to specific dietary needs or healthy eating plans. Fortunately, timepressed individuals have a number of resources at their disposal to help them plan and shop for meals. A quick online search for weekly meal plans will yield many results, including recipes and complementary shopping lists. People also can download apps that help with meal planning to their smartphones. Such apps include Yummly, Pepperplate and
MealBoard, among others. Another way for individuals to plan meals more effectively is to take a few moments on the weekend to think about which meals to make during the week ahead. Compare the necessary ingredients against those you may already have in your pantry. The rest can be purchased and saved for subsequent meals. Buying a week's worth of groceries in one shopping trip is more efficient and can help to conserve fuel. When planning meals, try to use the most perishable items first. For example, prepare to use seafood, some dairy items and fresh vegetables early in the week, and more durable foods, such as frozen, boxed or canned goods, later in the week. When buying foots at the store, buy proteins in bulk and subdivide them into smaller packages to save money. Properly repackage foods so they will not spoil or become freezer burned, leading to waste. Other budget-conscious shopping tips include trying store brands, building meal plans around items that are on sale that week and making use of coupons or coupon apps. Post a weekly meal plan on or near the refrigerator so items can be thawed

and ingredients prepared as needed. Building meals around slow cooker recipes also can help those who like to prep foods in the morning and then come home to completely cooked meals. On busy
nights, arrange for fast meals, such as sandwiches or one-pot creations. By planning meals in advance, home cooks never have to stand in front of the pantry wondering what to make.
How to spur kids' interest in the arts Art can enrich the lives of people young and old, male and female. The arts can introduce adults and children to different cultures and traditions, while also helping them to develop more fully as human beings. While some may feel the benefits of the arts cannot be measured, the nonprofit organization Americans for the Arts notes that kids who are involved in the arts are four times more likely to be recognized for academic achievement than kids who are not involved in the arts. And though mathematics and science may not be the first thing people associate with the arts, kids involved in the arts are four times more likely to participate in math and science fairs than kids who are not involved in the arts. Parents can do a lot to make art a bigger part of their kids' lives. The following are some simple ways parents can bring more art into their kids'
lives, courtesy of Americans for the Arts. Q Join in the fun. Parents can make art more fun for kids by playing music around the house and singing and dancing alongside their youngsters. In addition, read a book to or with your children and join in when they pursue other artistic endeavors, such as drawing or painting. Q Find local events. Many school districts have slashed their arts budgets in recent years, but parents can still find local arts events for kids in their communities. Peruse the local newspaper and other community-based periodicals for cultural events for kids. Support local theater groups by attending performances with your children and explaining to them that the performers live in the community just like they do. Q Pitch in with local arts organizations. Local arts organizations typically rely on donations and
File photo
volunteers to support their programs. Parents who want to instill a love of the arts in their children can help local organizations' fundraising efforts and even volunteer their time if the opportunity presents itself. If possible, take kids along when volunteering so they can get some firsthand experience with the arts. Q Encourage kids' artistic pursuits. Some kids may decide to pursue artis-
tic endeavors on their own, and parents can encourage such pursuits. Celebrate kids' participation in arts-based activities in school and in the community, recognizing their hard work in the same way you would acknowledge their successes in the classroom and in sports. The arts can benefit youngsters in various ways, but it's often up to parents to instill a love of the arts in their children.

IDNR reminds hunters North Greene Spartans to make safety a priority suffer loss against Brussels Hunters in Illinois are being reminded to make safety a top priority, especially during the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s busiest hunting seasons this fall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is no better place to participate in and celebrate our hunting heritage than right here in Illinois during the fall,â&#x20AC;? said Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) Director Wayne Rosenthal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No matter the hunting seasons, we want hunters to enjoy their time in the field, and to be safe while doing so.â&#x20AC;? The IDNR Office of Law Enforcement, which administers the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hunter Safety Education Program, has investigated 10 hunting incidents so far during 2016, eight of which involved hunters falling from elevated tree stands or falling while climbing into or out of tree stands. In 2015, there were 25 hunting incidents reported in all hunting seasons in Illinois. Among the hunting incidents reported last year, 15 involved tree stands. The IDNR reminds hunters using tree stands to use a Fall Arrest System (FAS) safety harness. Nationally, more than 80 percent of reported tree stand incidents involve hunters who were not using a fall restraint system. Hunters should also check the harness, straps, ladder and other equipment before use to make sure they are in working order; be aware of weather conditions that could make stands and steps slippery; and, have within reach a mobile phone to call for help, if needed. Hunters can review tree stand safety online at http:// www.huntercourse.com/treestandsafety/ Safety educators and IDNR Conservation Police also remind everyone hunting with a firearm to: Â&#x2021; 7UHDW HYHU\ ILUHDUP DV LI LW is loaded, and never assume a firearm is unloaded; Â&#x2021; $OZD\V SRLQW D ILUHDUP LQ D safe direction; Â&#x2021; %H VXUH RI WKH WDUJHW DQG make sure there are no other hunters, homes, buildings, vehicles or other animals beyond the target; Â&#x2021; .HHS WKHLU ILQJHU RXW RI WKH trigger guard and off the trigger until they are ready to shoot. Illinoisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; most popular hunting season, the seven-day firearm deer season, begins on Friday through Sunday, Nov. 18-20, and will conclude on Thursday through Sunday, Dec. 1-4. The Illinois Firearm Deer Season legal hunting hours are one-half hour before sunrise to one-half hour after sunset. Hunters who take a deer during the firearm season in most Illinois counties must register the deer they harvest online, or through a toll-free phone checkin system. The online deer registration is available through this link: http://www.dnr.illinois.
gov/hunting/Pages/HarvestReporting.aspx The toll-free phone deer registration line is 1-866-IL-CHECK (1-866-452-4325). Hunters registering deer through the online or phone systems must do so by 10 p.m. on the day they take the deer. In a number of northern Illinois counties where chronic wasting disease (CWD) has been detected in deer, hunters are required to register all deer harvested during firearm season by taking them to a check station (listed below) between the hours of 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. Biologists will be present to take CWD samples for testing at the time of registration. Testing is voluntary, but all hunters with adult deer are encouraged to participate. The counties where hunters are required to check in their deer at check stations are: Boone: Boone Co. Fairgrounds, 1/2 mi. north of Rt. 76 and Business Rt. 20, Belvidere DeKalb: Shabbona Lake State Park, 4201 Shabbona Grove Rd., Shabbona Grundy: Gebhard Woods State Park, 401 Ottawa Street, Morris Jo Daviess: Elizabeth Community Building, 210 N.

Perryville Rd. on Hart Rd. Hunters participating in the CWD sampling can check the status of their deer (listed by phone number) through the IDNR website. Hunters who provide samples from deer that test positive are notified by the IDNR. For more information on CWD in Illinois, check the
website at: www.dnr.illinois. gov/programs/CWD. For a detailed information sheet on firearm deer hunting in counties with check stations for chronic wasting disease sampling, go to the IDNR website at: https://www.dnr.illinois.gov/ news/Documents/DeerCheckCWDCounties2016.pdf In addition to the seven-day Illinois Firearm Deer Season, other deer hunting seasons in the state include the three-day Muzzleloader-only Deer Season on Dec. 9-11, and the sevenday split Late-Winter Firearm Antlerless-only Deer Season and Special CWD Deer Season (in select counties) on Dec. 29, 2016-Jan. 1, 2017 and January 13-15, 2017. The Illinois Archery Deer Season, which opened on Oct. 1, is open through Jan. 15, 2017 (except closed in counties open to Firearm Deer Season on Nov. 18-20 and Dec. 1-4).

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Open Enrollment Time Sometimes the health insurance plan that claims to be the lowest cost comes with the most surprises. It may not allow you to choose the doctor or hospital you need for your family. Check with your employerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s benefits department to ensure the plan you choose includes the hospitals and doctors you want.

Since the founding of our nation, the role of newspapers in our democracy has been crystal clear. We have been, and will continue to be, the eyes and ears of the American people. After all, the right of free speech is meaningless if no one knows whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really going on. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why more than 100 million Americans depend on their hometown newspapers daily and why todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newsrooms are staďŹ&#x20AC;ed with dedicated, highly trained reporters and experienced editors who bring you the very best journalism found anywhere, in print and online.

Decay can cause hazardous defects in trees Passenger License
Tree failure is a major cause of residential property damage and the leading cause of power outages nationwide. There are many ways a tree can fail: an ice storm can overload all the branches on a tree, a hurricane or high wind can blow down a tree if its roots are compromised, or a cracked tree can fail under its own weight. "Homeowners who are worried about trees falling and damaging property should call a professional arborist for an on-site inspection," advises Tchukki Andersen, CTSP, BCMA*, staff arborist with the Tree Care Industry Association. Andersen notes that trees are designed to withstand most storms, but all trees can fail â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and defective trees fail sooner than healthy trees. A sound tree becomes potentially dangerous when the tree's woody structure is weakened by one or more defects. During storms, pre-existing defects predispose trees to failure. "To a professional arborist," notes Andersen, "defects are visible signs that a tree has the potential to fail." Broadly defined, there are seven categories of defects: decayed wood, cracks, root problems, weak branch unions, cankers, poor tree architecture and dead trees, tree tops or branches.
Stress Healthy, well-maintained trees growing on suitable sites will be able to minimize the extent of decay and other defects. Trees that are stressed have reduced energy reserves, and therefore have less ability to deal with wounds and decay. Most urban trees survive on construction-altered soils that may be compacted, poorly drained, high in clay, sand or gravel, very alkaline or littered with construction debris. Additionally, many
urban trees are subjected to chemicals such as de-icing salts, herbicides and fertilizers commonly used in landscape maintenance. Poor tree maintenance is another contributor to stress. These cumulative stresses all take a toll on tree vitality and structural integrity, increasing the risk of failure.
Defects and decay Professional arborists have an understanding of the factors that create or accelerate the development of defects in trees. They also understand that some species have growth characteristics that make them prone to certain defects. Not all defective trees can be detected, corrected or eliminated. Although a professional arborist can readily recognize most defects, there are root problems and some internal defects that are hidden. These trees may require in-depth assessments and specialized diagnostic tools. Homeowners should also keep in mind that defects change with time. A tree that looked fine three years ago may have severe problems today. By doing regular inspections, arborists can successfully manage the risk of tree failure. Advanced decay and cavities result in less structural strength and reduced stability. Wood decay is an internal process with just a few external indications, such as mushrooms, conks, rotten or punky wood, cavities, hollows, holes, in-rolled cracks and bulges in the wood. The healthy layer surrounding the decay column is called the shell. If the shell thickness is thin relative to the size of the tree, the shell is likely to fracture, causing the tree to fail. A tree can have internal decay and an opening and still be structurally sound provided the shell is thick enough and the opening is not too wide.
If a tree is repeatedly wounded by the presence of in-rolled cracks, included bark, canker-rot fungi or equipment (mowers, plows and weed whips), decay occurs in every annual ring of wood. These trees should be carefully inspected by a professional arborist because they do not form a sound shell of wood. The tree is likely to fail at or near the location of the crack or wound because a large and ever-expanding column of decay is present there. Again, a professional arborist can evaluate shell thickness and opening width to help determine the tree's potential for failure.
Find a professional A professional arborist can assess your landscape and work with you to determine the safest course of action. Contact the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA), a public and professional resource on trees and arboriculture since 1938. It has more than 2,300 member tree care firms and affiliated companies who recognize stringent safety and performance standards and who are required to carry liability insurance. TCIA has the nation's only Accreditation program that helps consumers find tree care companies that have been inspected and accredited based on: adherence to industry standards for quality and safety; maintenance of trained, professional staff; and dedication to ethics and quality in business practices. An easy way to find a tree care service provider in your area is to use the "Locate Your Local TCIA Member Companies" program. You can use this service by calling 1-800-7332622 or by doing a ZIP Code search on www.treecaretips.org. *Certified Treecare Safety Professional and Board Certified Master Arborist.
Jesse White joins organ recipients to show support for National Donor Sabbath Secretary of State Jesse White joined Pastor Joseph Kyles, a lung recipient, along with gospel radio host Pam Morris-Walton, a heart recipient, and other faith leaders to recognize National Donor Sabbath, an interfaith campaign aimed at educating religious communities about organ/tissue donation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People often cite religious beliefs as a reason for not signing up for the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organ and tissue donor registry,â&#x20AC;? White said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The people here show how donation touches the lives of many, including those in our faith communities.â&#x20AC;? The press conference was held at Pastor Kylesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; church, The Promise Church of Chicago, located at 4821 W. Chicago Ave. Pastor Kyles was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis, a disease that made it difficult for him to breathe. He received his double lung transplant in February 2016 due to the generosity of an organ donor. Pam Morris-Walton is a gospel radio host at Chicago radio station WVON. After having a flu-like illness, Pam was told that her heart was failing and she needed a heart transplant. Morris-Walton received her gift in August of this year. Pastor Kyles and Morris-Walton were featured in a 60-second Public Service Announcement (PSA) about organ/tissue donation, which was submitted to approximately 100 radio stations statewide to bring awareness to the program. During the weekend of November 11-13,
faith communities in Illinois and across the country recognize National Donor Sabbath. Faith leaders and congregations participate in services and events to increase awareness of this vital program. According to the United Network for Organ Sharing, nearly all major religious groups support organ and tissue donation including Catholicism, Protestantism, Islam and Judaism. Currently, more than 123,000 people are waiting for organs nationally. In Illinois, there are approximately 5,000 people on the waiting list. Sadly, about 300 people die each year because organs are not available. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Organ donation affects so many people like Pastor Kyles and Pam Morris-Walton,â&#x20AC;? White said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I encourage people to discuss how their lives have been impacted by donation and urge others to register to become organ donors if they havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t already.â&#x20AC;? Other faith leaders and partners participating in National Donor Sabbath weekend included Rev. Dr. Marshall Elijah Hatch of New Mt. Pilgrim Church, Bishop Joseph Jones of Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church, Pastor Reginald E. Bachus of Friendship Baptist Church, the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation and Gift of Hope. For more information on organ/tissue donation or to register to become as a donor visit LifeGoesOn.com, call the Secretary of State Organ/Tissue Donor Program at 1-800-210-2106 or visit a Driver Services facility.
Plate Replacement Program begins in January Secretary of State Jesse White today announced his office will launch a costefficient passenger license plate replacement program beginning in January to replace the oldest license plates with newly designed plates at no additional cost to Illinois taxpayers. B-truck license plate replacement is expected to begin in 2018. The purpose of the program is to ensure â&#x20AC;&#x201C; now and in the future â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that older license plates on Illinois roads are replaced. License platesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; reflectivity diminishes with age, which impacts law enforcementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to quickly and accurately identify license plate numbers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a forward-thinking, long-term solution that does not require a complete replating overhaul, which would cost around $60 million,â&#x20AC;? said White. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This plan removes older plates and replaces them with newly designed plates within our current budget. This will ensure that plates are appropriately replaced
with the ultimate goal being no license plate on the road will be more than 10 years old.â&#x20AC;? Under the program, the oldest license plates will be replaced first. In 2017, passenger plates that were manufactured in 2000 and 2001 will be replaced. In 2018, passenger plates that were manufactured in 2002 and 2003 will be replaced. Each year the office will continue to replace older license plates with the newly issued plate. The process will start again in 2027, replacing the plates issued in 2017. Vehicle owners will be notified by mail if they qualify for the new license plates. When they renew their vehicle registration, they will be provided with a yellow sticker with a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on it to affix to the rear license plate of their vehicle. Within 60 days they will receive their newly designed license plates in the mail with a new registration sticker already affixed to the rear license plate.

The Pickle story Forget Andy Griffith and the great pickle story episode, Germany had its own version. A time honored tradition for the German holiday season was to hide a pickle in the Christmas tree and the person who found it was granted extra blessings the following year. Harriett Barber reads the story on a Christmas jar on display at Bevâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Baskets and Bows in Carrollton during the Christmas Open House Saturday morning.
