County commission considers broad agenda Chester County Library Director Nancy Canada approached the county commission at Monday night’s meeting requesting the commissioners consider an expansion to the 11year old facility library citing that the building is busting at the seams.

“Right now our children’s section is at capacity,” explained Canada. “We have no where else to put books.”

In a proposed expansion plan, 2,800 square feet would be added on to the 4,995 sq. ft. facility and would make room for a children’s reading and performance area. The total cost of the expansion project is estimated at $254,000. The expansion would be used to house more books, an informal reading area, and a reading program meeting area or community room, and a possible stage for performances or readings.

According to Canada, 19,001 visits were made to the county’s library over the course of last year, which includes 3,387 kids who have visited the library, including visits by the librarian to area schools. The library coordinates 76 children’s programs, 20 adult programs and three young adult programs.

Canada is currently using a small conference area to host programs and entertaining guests.

“No one on this commission wants to say no to the children in this county, but to get me on board, there’s got to be some

Chester County Librarian Nancy Canada urges the commission to consider a future expansion project for the library which has reached near capacity. grant money involved,” said Tim Crowe.

Buddy Richardson had similar sentiments stating, “I wouldn’t want to deny these children any facet of education but due to the economic uncertainty we’re in right now maybe we can take a look at everything and help this lady and come up with some grants.”

Canada said there have been some USDA grants that were available for construction, but the project needed to be ready to turn the dirt right then.

Canada noted there is a $26,000 CD left over from a previous construction grant that could be dedicated towards the project costs. Commissioners

said they would form a library expansion committee and meet with city officials to discuss the matter.

Additionally, the commissioners approved Al McKinnon’s recommendation that 911 board members serve term limits.

Three at-large 911 board members are only to serve one fouryear term upon rotation.

Currently the board hosts nine members including Lynn Helton (chair), Sheriff Blair Weaver, Mayor Bobby King, County Fire Chief Jim Vest, City Fire Chief Glenn Bryan, EMA director Mike Burkhead, Cyndi Kilzer, Johny Farris and Renee Phelps.

Short stay, continuing outcome for Ross

Veterans’ Day salute Thursday at City Hall The American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars are hosting a Veterans Day program at 11 a.m. today (Thursday) at City Hall.

In addition, A Field of Flags has returned to the Chester County courthouse lawn to honor and remember veterans. Flags may still be purchased, at $25 each, for display through Nov. 11. For more information, call 989-2363, Simmons Lumber Co. at 989-2991, or the Carl Perkins Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse at 9897222. All proceeds from Field of Flags are earmarked for the Carl Perkins Center.

Field of Flags Flags recognize veterans, patriotic Americans Flags are waving all over court square as A Field of Flags is in full swing. The event is sponsored by Jones and Simmons Lumber companies each year, and the proceeds benefit the Exchange Club – Carl Perkins Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse. Each flag represents the life of a patriot, community leader, veteran, or fallen soldier.

The men and women for whom flags were purchased are being recognized at the Veteran’s Day Program beginning at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11 at City Hall. County Director Clay Jordan will read the names of those who have been honored or

memorialized with a flag. The public is encouraged to attend.

Pvt. E2 Keith Ross, a member of the U.S. Army’s Co. D 179th Infantry Division, had a short stay in Korea, but the results have stayed with him continually since then.

Ross entered the U.S. Army in November of 1951, and was discharged less than one year later. In between, Ross saw one hour of combat in the “forgotten war” before being severely wounded.

With few phones in the area in 1951, it took quite some time before word reached his family in Jacks Creek. Ross’ father traveled to Georgia to see his son who was initially paralyzed, but later regained some movement. A devoted family helped nurse him back to health, having to help Ross relearn how to talk and walk.

A strong man growing up, family members say God brought Ross through the difficult times. He now lives a quiet life in Henderson, and has earned the respect of the community for his service to the nation.

(See additional veterans stories on Page 12-A.)

Korea: The ‘forgotten war’ The Korean war took place between June 25, 1950 and July 27, 1953. However, almost 60 years later, the sides are technically still at war.

Roots of the conflict stretch back to the end of World War II. Japan had ruled Korea since invading the peninsula in 1905. As the end of World War II neared, the Soviet Union declared war on Japan and an occupation force entered Korea from the north on Aug. 8, 1945, while United States troops entered from the south.

The United States and Soviet Union agreed to administer the region with each forming governments for that purpose, divided by the 38th parrallel. The U.S.-led south formed a democracy and the north became communist.

However, the leaders of each were determined to reunite their country, each wanting his own form of government.

North Korea, with the approval of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin, crossed the 38th parrallel on the morning of June 25, 1950, causing a chain reaction of political and military actions

Pvt. E2 Keith Ross was severely wounded within the first hour of reaching the battlefront during the Korean conflict. Disabled since that time, Ross has earned the respect of the community for his service to the nation.

eventually dragging the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and other forces under the auspices of the United Nations into the conflict.

A cease fire was established on July 27, 1953.

A demilitarized zone was established at the 38th parrallel, and to this day troops from the United States and South Korea on one side and troops from North Korea on the other stand eyeing each other ready to react at a moment’s notice.

No official “peace treaty” has ever been signed, thus lingering tensions still exist. Ironically, U.S. President Truman and later President Eisenhower, with urging from military officials, each considered using atomic weapons against North Korea and even China.

Reports indicate United Nations forces suffered 1,093,839 casualties including 397,543 Americans.

Local businesses’ host holiday bazaar Saturday

By Mary Mount Dunbar Staff Writer

Downtown Henderson businesses have opened their doors to shoppers for the 2010 holiday season. LaVon’s Timeless Treasures has been in its Front St. location for three years, and the Christmas season always holds a special place in owner LaVon Lemon’s heart. Beginning at 10 a.m., Saturday, Nov. 13, LaVon’s will host several local artists during a Christmas at LaVon’s, a special open house designed to spotlight craftspeople and artists from Chester County and nearby areas.

While there, 10 individually-owned booths daily will offer a variety of vintage, antique, and handmade goods inside LaVon’s. Saturday’s open house will bring in additional artists with unique, hand-crafted wares. Mary Alice White, a pianist from Jackson, will set the atmosphere with live Christmas music while customers browse. Cider, cookies, and other refreshments will be on hand.

Donna Flowers, formerly of Henderson, will return for the event.

Flowers’ husband David was minister of First Pentecostals of Henderson from 19721987. The Flowers, along with their son and daughter-in-law, are raising money to fund missions to Africa. During Christmas at LaVon’s, the Flowers will be selling handmade purses to support missions. Purses run from $20-$32, and all profits will support their mission

Owner Annette McDaniel promises free monogramming of any items purchased from her selection, and additional items can be brought from home to be monogrammed for a fee.

In addition to gifts for humans, LaVon is pleased to announce that many of the holiday guests will have gifts and accessories for pets.

Christabelle

Glimmers, which specializes in handmade natural stone and crystal beaded jewelry, will also have pet necklaces available. These necklaces come in various sizes to fit pets from tiny Chihuahuas and cats to Labradors and pot-bellied pigs.

Handmade jewelrymakers will be on location to exhibit their craft. In addition to Christabelle Glimmers, Designed by Alice Jewelry, a LaVon’s Timeless Treasures exclusive, will be at the festivities. Additionally, the creator of Designed by Alice Jewelry will offer a jewelry-making demonstration and seminar the Saturday after Thanksgiving on Nov. 27 to teach beginners the basics of making their own jewelry creations.

LaVon hopes that the Christmas festivities

encourage Chester Countians to take interest in their town and to support the local arts community. “It’s amazing how people don’t know what’s going on in their own town!” she mused.

Just around the corner on Main St., Merle Norman Cosmetics will also be participating in the weekend holiday spirit.

From 9 a.m.-5 p.m., the store will provide refreshments, such as home baked desserts, cheese balls, and mulling cider, and door prizes as customers browse. Annette Frye states that holiday merchandise will be out and ready for early Christmas shoppers. A large assortment of candles, scarves, holiday decorations, makeup, and potpourri will entice locals to visit.

Money for both repairs will come from the fund balance. Chester County Healthcare administrator Amy Wiley noted the facility will also need two additional heaters for the kitchen and dining area that have not been incorporated in the estimates.

The board passed the T-21 application grant 152 with one absent.

Commissioners Burl Malone and Jackie Butler voted against the grant application process. If received, the grant will be used to improve the brick retaining wall around the courthouse along with the metal fence that surrounds it. Commissioner Richardson expressed the

need to apply for the grant because of the condition of the area and said it could pose a potential liability issue. The estimated cost of the project and grant will total $330,000 with a county share of $69,000.

The county has not committed to any funds for the project and applied last year for the grant but was denied. Malone said there were cheaper ways to repair the wall if safety is the issue.

Our nation’s soldiers serve every day to protect our country and its ideals.

I am very thankful for them as I believe in God and I’m so glad that I have the right to worship when, where and how I choose.

“It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the agitator, who has given us the freedom to protest. It is the soldier who salutes the flag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, who gives that protester the freedom to abuse and burn that flag.”

-Zell Miller “In war, there are, No un-wounded soldiers”. Jose Narosky On Veteran’s Day, let’s take a moment to remember those who sacrifice their lives every moment for the rest of us.

One hundred mixed tulips will bring a splash of color come spring! Wayne Moody and Patsy Williams planted a huge bag of bulbs in the round flower bed.

Soon afterwards a nice shower moistened the insulating mulch. What a sight to look forward to this coming April.

The Joneses are planting a few trays of pansies.

Yellow-haired heads will be anxious to be called “blooming idiots”! Don even planted 36 yellow pansies on my mother’s grave. This winter folks driving around Unity Cemetery will hopefully find yellow sunshine to brighten a dreary day.

Talking about flowers – Unity Cemetery has that wind-blown look! Flowers were blown off rocks.

Arrangements weren’t tagged, so go on a treasure hunt while wearing boots into the gully looking for yours! Flower talk takes me to say - bless Liz and Ike Kinchen for housing eight ferns at Liz’s BBQ. She says it will brighten up dreary days for customers. Free Coke to the sweeper of the ferns I say.

Observations are being made in how nice lawns are looking with leaves being mulched, flags waving, decorative autumn scenes brightening corners, and patches of nearby turnip greens. My neighbor helped pick a big bag of greens (salet), and how good they tasted with

that pone of cornbread. We even picked Wilma Hart’s pears; they jumped into a skillet bathing themselves in butter, sugar, and spice.

We are thankful to have good food and good neighbors. The last spoonful of Ruth Webb’s fig preserves disappeared on a hot biscuit – must return that washed jar, and then gather nine pots of divided plants Charles potted for us. Needed now are nine big pots and nine long lives for these treasures!

Next spring perhaps you’ll secretly smile as they gain weight and spread quickly!

Gaining weight will be a part of our lives until holidays end. The Jacks Creek Community Club will have its dinner meeting at 6 p.m. Thursday. I’m carrying meat loaf, dumplings, and slaw. We hope our veterans can come – they will be excused from washing pans. Wear patriotic colors because Shelly Pusser will be snapping photos.

Smile and the whole world will smile has to be Misti Taylor’s motto.

Chris Siler hired new help.

His customers have noticed Misti’s smile and cheerful personality already. Her smile is contagious, but it won’t be helping turkeys. Chris will be cooking ordered turkeys for Thanksgiving.

Gobble to him about yours.

Cool weather kept me from attending the Williams’s Stew in Wright Town. The early cold made my joints snap, crackle, and pop, so it was indoors for stew at Enville. Thought someone was going to have to stop Jerry Laster from returning to Beech Bluff with

MISTI REBECCA ROWLAND AND JOSHUA MILO COLE

Rowland – Cole engagement Misti Rebecca Rowland and Joshua Milo Cole, both of Henderson, will marry in a private ceremony at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 20, 2010, at Tulip Tree Wedding Chapel in Jackson.

The bride-elect is the daughter of John and Victoria Jones, and Chris Rowland, all of Henderson. Her grandparents are Geraldine Parks of Medon and Maxine Rowland of Jackson.

She is a 2008 graduate of Chester County High School and is a receptionist at Meridian Springs Dental Clinic in Jackson.

The groom-elect is the son of LeRoy II and Sharlotte Cole of Henderson. His grandparents are LeRoy and Barbara Cole of Adamsville and Vernon and Bonnie Baskin of Ola, Ark. He attended Chester County Schools and graduated from Gateway Christian Academy in 2003. He is currently employed as a floor installer.

All friends and family are invited to attend a reception at 3:30 p.m. at the home of the groom’s parents, 4145 State Route 200 in Henderson.

those fried pies he was stockpiling! I bought Don four, but don’t ask him how many he ate! Wonder how many pies Jerry’s wife even saw! Harold Finley (Smiley) and Harold Maness were carrying stew by the dishpans as gallon jugs lined cabinets. Jack O’Neal was supervising their speed.

This was not the time to “goose” anyone, unless you like eating off the ceiling!

After buying stew folks shopped at Enville’s Methodist Thrift Store.

Lots of “Elves” (Brenda Norwalk, LeeNell and Lloyd King, and Inez Cash) were tempting shoppers with early Christmas items!

Returning to buy one more gallon of stew to surprise the Kings was not in the cards as Tara O’Neal and Janice Maness cleaned the last pot. Janice invited me to her home. I met grandsons, Nick and Matthew, and sat in a nice pink chair. Harold, the soup carrier, appeared at the side door. Nice way to find out Janice belonged to him. Have you ever been to Rocky Knob? There is a first time for everything.

I’d hate to be back there when there was powerfailure, but it truly is a paradise in daylight hours!

Prayer is requested for David Courdle. Also, continue to keep Joyce Lott, Lydia Dickson, and Rachel Johnson in your prayers.

Please remember Sarah Peddy – she lost her friend and roommate, Voila Patterson. They were together a long time and shared good times. These ladies are Dusty and my friends at healthcare.

Talking to Rachel Sunday she asked how Dusty was feeling - touched my heart deeply. Dusty returns to the doctor Tuesday, but he will visit her this week for sure. He has a picture for her of the two of them together. Mazell is smiling. Rachel is home.

Our community expresses sorrow to the families of Mary Tate Hudson (8-30-1943/11-22010); Cavelle Haggard Mitchell (11-13-1918/113-2010), a smiling sweet lady Dusty and I will miss at Chester County Healthcare; Voila Dunn Patterson (8-27-1912/115-2010), a southern treasure with a remarkable memory. Dusty and I will miss her at healthcare.

The song has ended, but the melody lingers; Marie Minton Bryant (9-301926/11-5-2010), Godmother of Regina Cupples; Rene Robertson (12-28-1953/11-5-2010); Raymond Weaver (1-31936/11-7-2010); Samuel Christian Page (9-211992/11-5-2010), son of Michael Page, Sr. and Tabitha Brown. Chris left Friday to attend Colton Page’s (cousin) basic training graduation and sadly died the next day. Monday I met Michael Page (brother), Trevor Kolwyck (brother), Skylar Weaver (brother), Brook Page (cousin), and Chris’s friends are helping raise money for the funeral at two local businesses (Fred’s and Piggly Wiggly), and some churches have offered donations.

Chris was a senior at CCHS if you desire to help. Outstretched hands are directed by big unselfish hearts.

“On the basis of complete but unofficial returns, the President polled a vote of 1,533 to 1,011 for his Republican opponent, Wendell L. Willkie.

“Falls Into Gully While Possum Huntin’” “The old adage, ‘Look upward, not downward,’ didn’t work for Jim Thomas of the Coatney’s Store community Saturday night. Mr. Thomas was engaged in the pleasant pastime of ‘possum hunting, and while peering about for a prospect, neglected to tell his feet where to go.

“As a consequence, the unenlightened feet led him off the trail and into a gully. His shoulder and arm were so badly bruised by the fall that it was thought at first they were fractured. Xrays, however, showed only bruises, and Mr. Thomas is recuperating at his home.”

Remember our deceased veterans on Veteran’s Day, as well as our veterans of today and those serving today.

The fall crisp air feels great. Monday was a beautiful fall day. I went for a walk in the woods with Roger and Buddy, and as we came into the clearing by the pond, there stood a deer and it quickly leaped into the woods and the chase began.

Finally they returned and we went another way home, saw a squirrel gathering hickory nuts for winter, which reminded me of when we

were kids gathering black walnuts and hickory nuts.

We called them scaly barks.

We headed home like a bunch of squirrels all ready for the winter. We

used a brick and a hammer to crack the nuts and munch on the nut meats.

In those days, it seems it took so little to make us happy.

Have a good week.

and Member of the Year is Susan Dunn.

Veterans Day will be Nov. 11. Here is the history of how it started.

World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. For that reason, Nov. 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.”

In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed Nov. 11 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words: “To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace

and justice in the councils of the nations…”

An Act (52 Stat. 351; 5 U. S. Code, Sec. 87a) approved May 13, 1938, made the 11th of November in each year a legal holiday—a day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be thereafter celebrated and known as “Armistice Day.” Armistice Day was primarily a day set aside to honor veterans of World War I, but in 1954, after World War II had required the greatest mobilization of soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen in the Nation’s history; after American forces had fought aggression in Korea, the 83rd Congress, at the urging of the veterans service organizations, amended the Act of 1938 by striking out the word “Armistice” and inserting in its place the word “Veterans.”

With the approval of this legislation (Public Law 380) on June 1, 1954, Nov. 11 became a day to honor American veterans of all wars.

Later that same year, on Oct. 8, President Dwight D. Eisenhower issued the first “Veterans Day Proclamation” which stated: “In order to insure proper and widespread

observance of this anniversary, all veterans, all veterans’ organizations, and the entire citizenry will wish to join hands in the common purpose.

Toward this end, I am designating the Administrator of Veterans’ Affairs as Chairman of a Veterans Day National Committee, which shall include such other persons as the Chairman may select, and which will coordinate at the national level necessary planning for the observance. I am also requesting the heads of all departments and agencies of the Executive branch of the Government to assist the National Committee in every way possible.”

Veterans Day continues to be observed on Nov. 11, regardless of what day of the week on which it falls.

The restoration of the observance of Veterans Day to Nov. 11 not only preserves the historical significance of the date, but helps focus attention on the important purpose of Veterans Day: A celebration to honor America’s veterans for their patriotism, love of country, and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good.

Enjoy your week. Call me at 879-9777.

“In a joint announcement Wednesday afternoon, Henderson Mayor W. E. Burkhead and Charles W. Coker, Jr. of Hartsville, S. C., president of Sonoco Products Company, revealed plans for the construction of a 40,000 sq. ft. plant by the Sonoco firm in Magic Valley Industrial Park.

This will be the second branch plant in Tennessee, Mr. Coker said. The company also has a plant in Newport.

Freed-Hardeman Clues in to Homecoming 2010 Hundreds of FHU alumni will return to their alma mater Nov. 8-12, to celebrate the 57th annual Freed-Hardeman Homecoming. The theme for this year’s gathering is “Get a Clue.” The Student Alumni Association is responsible for the primary planning and organization behind FreedH a r d e m a n ’ s Homecoming. This year two of its members, Jessica Biby and Brennen Williams, serve as the principle student sponsors. Melissa Seratt and Betsy Hesselrode from the Office of Alumni Relations serve as faculty supervisors.

Central to Homecoming week is the competition that takes place among the social clubs at Freed-Hardeman.

Many of the events this year will be the same as in years past, but FHU has announced several changes and additions to this year’s proceeding.

For the students, the week began on Friday, Nov. 5, when the clubs were allowed to begin working on their murals for Paint-it-up. Paint-it-up tests each club’s ability to design and paint a sketch that represents Homecoming and the spirit of Freed-Hardeman.

The murals are displayed on the front windows of the Wallace Gano dining hall through the week for returning alumni to enjoy.

Last Monday, Fire-it-up took place and served as a

FHU students decorated the windows of Gano Cafeteria to celebrate the 57th annual FHU Homecoming week. Students and alumni will partipate in festivties throughout the week and weekend as they gear up for the basketball game. The social club accumulating the most spirit points throughout the week will receive the 2010 Homecoming Trophy following the basketball game. kickoff for Homecoming weekend. The purpose was to promote FHU spirit and unity and to support the FHU Lions and Lady Lions, as FHU Lions’ and Lady Lions’ basketball team captains and coaches lit the ceremonial bonfire.

On Tuesday night, social clubs competed in Dodge-it-up, a new event for Homecoming this year. The clubs were judged on their standings in the dodge ball tournament and on the creativity and quality of their costumes. The final championship game will be take

Christmas parade scheduled for Dec. 2 Holidays have arrived, and the time has come to prepare for the Chester County Christmas Parade.

Chamber event coordinator Patricia Ledford said those interested in building a float for the parade should begin soon.

Ledford adds that there is no entry fee. Although participants of all ages are encouraged, those driving motor vehicles must be 18 years or older.

The annual event is slated for Dec. 2. Entry forms can be picked up at the Chamber office in downtown Henderson. All that is required to enter is a donation of candy that will be passed out during the parade.

This year, hot chocolate will be available on the courthouse lawn for parade attendees to enjoy.

For more information, contact Ledford at the Chamber 989-5222.

City board to meet Thursday The Henderson Board of Mayor and Aldermen are scheduled to meet at 7 p.m. tonight, Thursday, Nov. 11 at City Hall.

Their brief agenda includes the following items: discuss the position of the Public Works Director, discuss painting and repairs needed at the Fire Dept., and discuss and consider appointing a member of the board to work with Recorder Jim Garland and MTAS to update the Municipal Code.

place during half time of the Lions basketball game on Saturday, allowing both the students and visiting alumni to witness FreedHardeman students competing for the homecoming title.

On Thursday morning, Rev-it-up will be conducted on University Street between the Sports Center and boys dorms.

Rev-it-up is a soapbox car race; each car is entirely built by members of the competing clubs. The event is judged both on the car’s placing in the race and the quality of its construction. Thursday night, university faculty member Cliff Thompson will be directing “The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940.” It is described as a “screwball comedy,” and the inspiration for this year’s homecoming theme.

On Friday night, there will be the Homecoming banquet. All students are invited to this function, at which the Homecoming court will be recognized and the formal crowning of the Homecoming king and queen will take place. The senior girls competing for the title are Megan Flowers, Stella Merritt, and Jennifer Savage. The senior boys are Ray Baker, Brandon Hall, and Stuart Sams. Junior class representatives are Jessie Hatfield and Colt Shannon.

Sophomore class representatives are

Jessica Ashley and Lee Hagwood.

Homecoming week culminates in the Saturday festivities. Early that morning, the social clubs will gear up for Pep-it-up and the Spirit leader showdown.

The clubs will be led by the Freed-Hardeman cheerleaders in cheers to support our Lion and Lady Lion basketball teams.

Clubs will be judged on spirit quality of the FHU themed outfits they choose to wear and on their enthusiasm throughout the cheers.

Immediately following Pep-it-up, all of the students will create a tunnel for the basketball players leading to the Sports Center.

Although Homecoming might have a competitive element, the ultimate goal is to thank our basketball teams who work hard to represent our school athletically and provide a source of pride for our students. The social club that accumulates the most points in the activities throughout the week will be awarded the Homecoming trophy following the Lion’s basketball game.

Throughout the week, different Freed-Hardeman classes will be reuniting to reminisce their college days. Betsy Hesselrode from the office of Alumni relations works with these reunions and knows that

the true spirit of a FreedHardeman Homecoming has nothing to do with a competition.

“I love homecoming because no matter which group you’re around that is being reunited, whether they attended here 40 years ago or four years ago, they all have the same excitement and camaraderie about them.

This enduring love for Freed’s beliefs and students never fails to excite me and energize me about being at Freed.”

CCYF League concludes Dear Editor, What a great season for Chester County Youth Football. I wanted to thank Jerry and Christy Newsome for the outstanding job. They made this season great and we all appreciate their hard work.

Congratulations go to Petty Construction on finishing second. We are so proud of Grant Braden, Nick Newman, Ty Patterson, Christian Tucker, Bryce Petty, Dylan Case, Gage Denbow, Jake McCaskill, Shunte Chadwick, Hunt Smith, Michael Scott, and Colby Farley, and Dalton Farley. They had to compete with a lot of talented young men. I am also proud of everyone who came to our homecoming game and effortlessly donated $2 for our admission fee. These people make this program possible.

Our annuals that Christy Newsome worked so hard on were wonderful. Seven dollars is a small price for our kids’ memories.

Thanks to Brad Patterson for treating the boys with pizza on their last game day. What a great way to close our season. Thanks to Brad Patterson and Shunte Chadwick, Sr., for all the help they gave coaches and the example they showed our boys win or lose.

Last, but never least, thanks to our wonderful coaches, Ron Petty, Damon Newman and Chuck Farley. The lesson these boys were taught will make them better men and players. I am proud of the example; never give up the attitude you showed this season! There were many practices, sleepless nights, and an earned second place finish. Congratulations.

To all Petty Construction parents, thank you for the many practices and support you have given this team.

Take a bow… you all deserve it!

Sincerely, Misty Farley

The greatest privilege Dear Editor, As I prepare to leave Congress after 16 years of service to the great people of Tennessee, many groups who have honored me often ask about the highlights of my time in Congress. Every chance I get, I let folks know that the greatest privilege and highest honor I have had in my professional life is to serve those who serve us in the Armed Forces of the United States.

For the last three years, I have been fortunate to serve as the top Republican on the Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Subcommittee in the U.S. House of Representatives.

We provide the resources to the U.S. military commands around the world for construction and infrastructure, and fund all discretionary veterans’ benefits and programs including the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

As far as I am concerned, every day should be Veterans’ Day, but our nation has officially declared November 11 as the day to reflect on the valor and sacrifice of all the veterans who have served with honor, dedication and distinction. Our veterans demonstrate their willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good and to preserve the freedoms we all cherish.

Every single time that freedom has been extended from one generation to the next, it has been delivered by our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, Coast Guard and National Guard and Reserve components.

Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of the press, the fundamental tenets of this Republic have been granted to all Americans by these courageous men and women. Those serving America’s interests abroad today are undoubtedly our best, brightest and most dedicated citizens.

My father was on active duty as a young Army Lieutenant when I was born at Fort Benning, Ga. My fondest memories, most emotional experiences, deepest gratitude and highest respect are all attached to these incredible American patriots who answered their country’s call. They put their very lives between a threat and our civilian population and have made great sacrifices for each citizen of the United States, millions of whom they will never meet.

Thank you, American veterans!

On behalf of a grateful nation, we salute you on Veterans’ Day and every day as the finest citizens in our land. We thank you for ensuring our way of life and for preserving our freedom.

State ranked second in business climate The editors of Site Selection have named the state of Tennessee the nation’s second best state for business climate. The announcement was made in the magazine’s November 2010 issue.

Tennessee’s standing marks an improvement over the Volunteer State’s fifth place ranking in 2009 and places Tennessee behind only North Carolina in terms of attractiveness for corporate investment and job creation. The highly regarded annual rankings by one of the nation’s leading economic development magazines is based on performance in business expansion and relocation, as well as nationwide survey of corporate real estate executives.

“We’ve made incredible progress in making Tennessee the kind of state where business knows it will be treated fairly,” said Governor Phil Bredesen.

“We know companies want to be where government understands their needs and will help craft solutions to achieve them, whether it’s creating a trainable workforce or providing the infrastructure needed to get products to market. We’ve proven Tennessee can get the job done.”

“I couldn’t be more pleased that the hard work we’ve undertaken in Tennessee is being recognized nationally for its impact on the lives of people in Tennessee,” said Matt Kisber, commissioner, Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development. “In a very challenging environment, we’ve demonstrated that raising educational standards, expanding workforce development and putting in place flexible incentives is the right formula to create jobs.”

The announcement marks the sixth time in the past eight years Tennessee has ranked among the top five states in the country for business climate. Since the start of the Bredesen Administration, more than 190,000 new jobs and more than $33 billion in new capital investment have been recruited by the state. In compiling the rankings, site selectors were asked to rank the most important factors in making decisions about investment. They cited workforce development, state and local tax policy and transportation infrastructure as their top three factors.

“All states face economic and budgetary challenges

these days,” said Site Selection Editor-in-Chief Mark Arend. “This ranking reminds us there are significant success stories, too.”

The rankings, along with the magazine’s annual update on state business legislation and incentive changes appears in the November 2010 edition of Site Selection and is available online at www.sitenet.com.

In addition to the Site Selection ranking, Tennessee was also named Co-State of the Year for economic development by Southern Business and Development in July 2010, was ranked third best in Chief Executive Officer magazine’s annual rankings of the Best and Worst Places to Do Business, in April 2010, and was named the second best state in the country for Economic Growth Potential by Business Facilities magazine in August 2010.

A family affair The Guinns: Tradition of Patriotism

CLARENCE D. GUINN

WASEL GUINN

CLARENCE GUINN JR.

ORVILLE GUINN

Family traditions forge bonds from generation to generation. As one generation passes, the later carry on the heritage, adding and building as the bonds grow stronger.

The Guinn family has such a tradition. From World War I to the 1960s, three generations of this family served the nation with honor and distinction.

“I never wanted any honors; I just thought it was my duty. Looks like it runs in the family,” said Henderson resident Wasel Guinn.

Guinn’s father, Clarence D. Guinn, began the family tradition, serving the country in the Navy during World War I. His three sons, Orville, Wasel, and Clarence Jr., carried on the family affair, also in the Navy. Orville and Wasel served during World War II, with Clarence Jr. coming along shortly thereafter.

However, the tradition continued to the next generation with Wasel’s sons, David and Steve who also saw military service.

David served in the US Navy for two years on board a destroyer, while Steve served as a member of the National Guard.

Wasel Guinn turned age 18 on Oct. 11, 1943, and

by Christmas Eve of that year, he was on his way to Naval Station Great Lakes Recruit Training Center.

With his first assignment not to his liking, seaman first class Wasel Guinn volunteered for sea duty because, he said, “I wanted to see some action” Assigned to the destroyer escort ship USS Janssen DE 396, Wasel Guinn soon got his wish.

The Janssen was part of an escort group for aircraft carriers, as well as a submarine hunt and destroy operation. Operating in the North Atlantic, the Janssen saw plenty of action.

“I was on watch (one night), and we got a radio message that another destroyer had been hit,” recalled Guinn. “We were designated to pickup the survivors, (but) we got contact with a submarine.

So we had to pull off and leave them. I always wondered what happened to

those boys.”

That destroyer hit was possibly the USS Frederick C. Davis (DE136) which was torpedoed and sank April 24, 1945.

Upon discovery of the submarine U-546, the Janssen fired more than 40 depth charges in three separate attacks, eventually destroying the submarine. There were some survivors from the Frederick, but she lost 115 men.

Firing those depth charges was Guinn’s duty aboard the Janssen. He was in charge of placing a charge (pistol) in the “K” gun to blow the depth charges into the sea.

After the war in Europe was over, the torpedo launchers were taken off the destroyer escorts, and replaced with anti-aircraft guns. After training at Guantanamo Bay, the Janssen soon left for the Pacific theatre, passing through the Panama Canal to Pearl Harbor. However, she arrived too late for major operations against Japan and the war was soon over. With his ability to use a typewriter, Wasel was sent to Guam where he completed his service typing orders for returning soldiers and equipment.

Orville Guinn saw action aboard the carrier USS Enterprise CV-6. A Kamikaze attack on May 14, 1945 left a gaping hole in her flight deck, forcing the Enterprise to leave the war. Orville Guinn narrowly avoided injury during the attack.

Now more than 65 years after his service to America, Wasel Guinn is quiet about his service, believing he was blessed to return home unharmed.

He is a member of several veterans’ organizations but has never attended a meeting because he wanted to forget most of it, but admits it had to be done.

“The bad thing was that those in Vietnam, when they came home they were treated so badly,” he says. He is glad to say that now most people are aware of the noble service the Vietnam veterans, and veterans of other wars, have provided to the greatest nation on earth.

Frank and Gloria Holiday each served the country as U.S. Marines while raising four children.

When a father in the military goes off to foreign soil, times can be tough for the spouse and children left behind. It becomes almost like a single parent family, with mom totally in charge.

However, in the Holiday family both parents were in the Marines, and each became the sole parent for a period of time during their long careers.

Gloria Brown met Frank Holiday in 1974 at Camp Pendleton in California, and they married two years later.

Together they raised four children while each made a career in the military.

“All our children are military brats, but they are best brats ever,” emphasized Gloria. She noted that she was one of the first women in the Marines to serve as a drill instructor while pregnant.

Keeping the family together became a priority for the Holidays, and Frank said the Marines obliged most of the time.

“The military is not really family-oriented,” Frank said. “They told me, ‘we don’t issue you a family, we issue you a rifle and bullets!” He went on to say, however, that the military is better for families today, “but with a lot of guys coming in to the military with families it’s still difficult. There are a lot of divorces, but here we are, 34 years later.”

In order for him and his wife to each remain stationed at the same base, Frank had to give up an assignment that he enjoyed, that of being a member of the Marine Corps Band.

“I played trumpet and bass guitar for the west

coast band,” he said. “We played all over – Hawaii, San Diego, Arizona, Texas, the Rose Parade, and Cody, Wyoming.” Giving it up, however, he became a cook, a position needed at any base where his wife might be transferred.

Their four children – Maria, Glorina, Frank Jr., and LaWanna – were all born while the two were each in the military. When Gloria was sent to Okinawa, Frank stayed behind in the states with the children, a rarity in those days.

Gloria retired from the Marines in 1995 and the couple came “home” to Henderson. Gloria says she would have stayed until she had 30 years in the Marines but perceived a change in the discipline that she was not prepared to accept.

Coming to live in Henderson, Frank joined the Army National Guard.

He quickly noted the differences in the way things are done in the Marines and the Army. Also, it initially concerned him with what he perceived to be a lack of preparation for guardsmen to take on the tasks of fighting a foreign war versus protecting the homeland.

“When I was first in the guard, the men were not really prepared to go to war,” Frank said. “They did not have the training, but now they are getting the training. Also, when the first guardsmen were sent over (to Iraq and Afghanistan), the families were not being taking care of like they should.”

Nonetheless, the couple each recommends the military for young people because of the discipline

GLORIA BROWN HOLIDAY

FRANK HOLIDAY they receive. “Those that can get through boot camp and get a trade, it is good,” they explained.

Their daughter, Maria, took their advice, becoming a captain in the Air Force Reserves. They take great pride in saying that when Maria received her captain’s bars that they saluted her, and now say “yes sir” and “no sir” to their daughter.

Maria became the third generation of the family to serve in the military, joining her parents as well as each of her grandfathers.

Pernell Brown and John A. Holiday each served in Korea as members of the U.S. Army.

Parnell Brown served the country in the U.S. Army in Korea.

DAVID GUINN

One of the “Greatest Generation”

STEVE GUINN

Wasel Guinn is one of three brothers that all served their country in the Navy. In addition, his father, and two sons are each military veterans.

Willie Ludell Ross was a member of the country’s “Greatest Generation,” serving the United States during World War II. He was a member of the U.S. Army’s 4380th quartermaster truck company, supplying troops as the 14th Armored Division fought its way across the Main and Rhine Rivers, to the east through central Germany, and south past Nuremberg.

To register shoebox gifts and find out what country they are delivered to, use the EZ Give donation form found a t www.samaritanspurse.org.

Those who would like to be involved may fill shoeboxes with school supplies, toys, necessity items, hard candy, and a letter of encouragement.

Step-by-step shoebox packing instructions are available at www.samaritanspurse.org. Volunteers may also sign up to join Operation Christmas Child volunteers at collection sites in Henderson as part of the effort to prepare millions of shoe boxes for delivery to underprivileged children on six continents.

THP Retired Officers Association commends Carl Perkins Center’s Child Abuse Prevention programs The Tennessee Highway Patrol Retired Officers Association in 1985 elected to do a project to aid in the prevention of child abuse here in Tennessee. During their tenure of service, the retired troopers witnessed many severe cases of child abuse.

To fulfill the goals of their project, THPROA checks many child abuse prevent centers across the State of Tennessee to select a center to work with. The Exchange ClubCarl Perkins Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse of West Tennessee was found to be doing wonderful programs with the children even though they were experiencing a serious lack of funds.

THPROA chose to contribute $8,000 to the Centers of Carroll, Crockett, Chester and Haywood Counties.

Members of the organization frequently make onsite visits to the centers throughout westerns, middle, and eastern Tennessee that they support. Disbursements in excess of $30,000 are reviewed and made annually.

Since the inception of the child abuse prevention programs the Tennessee Highway Patrol Retired Officers Association has to this date contributed more than $500,000 to various child abuse prevention centers within the State of Tennessee. Also, a program was established to distribute teddy bears to aid in the wellness of

Junior boys deck Decatur, McPherson ties records The Eagles of Chester County Junior High got a big win to start the basketball regular season by decking Decatur County 54-40 Thursday in Parsons.

Colin McPherson nailed seven of 10 from the three-point line totaling 30 points, tying two school records in the process. The seven threes equal the seven hit by Brad Clayton of CCJHS in the state tournament in 1994, and the 30 points ties the record set by Derrick Depriest several years ago against Hardin County.

Tyler Holeman added nine points while grabbing 10 rebounds. Jon Philips grabbed four steals, and Brendan Clayton had six points and seven rebounds.

“This was a great team effort. I am extremely proud of the boys and excited about the rest of our season,” said Chester County head coach Tommie Kirk.

The Junior Eaglettes have not been as fortunate, falling to Decatur County 49-22. High scorers for CCJHS in the Decatur game, as well as two preseason scrimmages, have been Alyssa Joyner and seventh-grader Kelsey Lutrell.

“Our girls are playing hard, and our defense is usually keeping us in the game,” stated Coach Wes Murphy. “We just have to start finding a way to put the ball in the goal.”

CCJHS hosts Lexington Middle School at 6:30 p.m. tonight (Thursday).

No quit Eagles stopped 12-7

By James A. Webb General Manager

There was bitter cold, wind, even a few snow flakes at the state football playoff game last Friday in Greenbrier; however, there was no quit in the Chester County Eagles who fought to the bitter end.

However, despite their best efforts, the injuryplagued CCHS team needed one more break or more play to defeat the host Bobcats, and fell 127.

Chester County’s defeat was its third straight in as many seasons in the first round of the post-season, with all

the games coming on the road. The Eagles concluded at 5-6 overall, with Greenbrier, 7-4, moving on to the second round at Lexington.

Two Eagle running backs, Matthew Butler and Toneal Bumpass, played sparingly while still trying to overcome injuries.

Of course they had replaced CCHS stars J.D. Burton and Cameron Phelps when each suffered season-ending injuries earlier in the season. Linebacker Derek Platt moved into the fullback slot, and defensive back Ryan Turner carried

several times as well.

CCHS quarterback Austin Cavaness suffered a hip injury in the first quarter and hobbled around for the rest of the game. And Eagle linemen were not exempt from the injury bug either, with senior Tyler Walker playing through a back injury.

CCHS head coach Jeff Cupples knew his team could compete with the Bobcats despite the injury situation.

“When anyone talks about their glory days they always say ‘I was hurt but I still got out there,’” said Cupples. “We had several

that went out there and played hurt, and we had some kids to play that were limping.”

One player not limping was Turner. After the Eagles failed to move the ball on the first series, Greenbrier moved in to Eagle territory on four first downs. But Turner did not bite on play action and easily picked off a Bobcat pass in the end zone to cool the initial threat.

Boehler’s 32 help FHU beat The Cumberlands In the first of what will be more than 10 games against nationally ranked opponents, the FreedHardeman Lady Lions got a career night from senior post Meribeth Boehler to hold off a second-half surge and defeat No. 12 University of the Cumberlands (Ky.), 85-77, on Saturday afternoon.

Boehler dominated in the last 20 minutes, scoring 23 of her career-high 32 points after halftime to help No. 9 FHU hang on to what was a 17-point lead at the break.

In contrast to the second half, the Lady Lions (2-0) were able to build that big halftime lead with Boehler on the bench with three fouls.

Her third foul came with 9:20 to play in the half as part of a threepoint play by UC’s Ida Gustafasson which tied the score at 24-24. Going with a small lineup and pressure defense, FHU

was able to outscore the Patriots 23-6 the rest of the way and finished the half on a 16-3 run.

But UC (1-2), which shot just 23.5 percent in the first half, came out hot after halftime making its first five shots as part of an 11-0 run to pull back within six. Soon after, FHU responded with a 9-0 run of its own to go up 6246 with 13:18 left.

Freed-Hardeman still led by 16 points at the 8:24 mark following a Natalie Shumpert 3-pointer but, like they did two years ago at the NAIA National Tournament, the Patriots began making a late push to cut into the Lady Lions’ lead.

After slowly chipping away for the next five minutes, UC put together a 10-3 run to pull within five points at 82-77 with 48 seconds left. But Boehler, as she did most of the day, came up big with a layup on FHU’s next possession

Walker Run 5K Near freezing temperatures Saturday did not prevent more than 80 runners and walkers from taking part in the inaugural Walker Run 5K race Saturday morning, which began and ended at Henderson’s Gene Record City Park.

In addition to Boehler’s big night, Shumpert added 19 points - 12 of which came in the first half while Whitney Johnson See FHU, Page 3-B

Lion soccer season ends with loss to Martin A historic occasion unfortunately did not have a pleasant ending for the Freed-Hardeman Lions’ soccer team. Hosting the first conference tournament match in school history, the Lions lost to defending champion Martin Methodist, 3-0, on Saturday night to bring to an end what was the best season in FHU soccer’s 12-year existence.

The Lions finished the season with a schoolrecord tying 13 wins and won four matches in conference play for the first time ever.

Saturday night, however, the RedHawks’ postseason experience showed itself with a quick goal in the seventh minute as Andy Gordon took a long through ball from Fabio Souza and sent a shot right through the hands of FHU keeper Alexandre Girodo for the only score of the half.

FHU caught an unfortu-

nate break shortly after halftime when defender Alek Floyd played a ball back to Girodo, but Girodo lost his footing and his hand made contact with the ball as he fell in the box. The resulting free kick turned into a goal, as Gary Humphries touched the ball to Stephen Doran, who ripped a shot through a wall of defenders to the right post.

The Lions seemed ready to pull within a goal in the 75th minute, receiving a penalty kick after a hand ball in the box. But Philipp Baier’s strike hit the left post, and the RedHawks went on a counterattack that eventually produced a corner kick after Girodo saved a shot by Humphries.

Anthony Hewitt sent the kick to the far post, and Humphries was there to head it in to give MMC a 3-0 lead.

Freed-Hardeman outshot MMC, 21-9, and held

an 11-6 edge in shots on goal, but RedHawk keeper James Colman made several outstanding saves on close-range shots.

Lions beat tie record The Freed-Hardeman Lions soccer team set a few records in their 3-2 win over Cumberland University on Nov. 2 in the final match of the regular season.

The win was the Lions’ 13th of the season, tying the program record for most wins in a season. It was also their fourth conference win of the year.

FHU (13-4, 4-3) finished in three-way tie for third place with Union University and Lyon College, but defeated both in the regular season to receive the tie-breaker.

It was the final regular season home match for five FHU seniors: Ryan Engineer, Alek Floyd, Josh McReynolds, Joshua Mankey and Saul Simpson.

Record-setting season closes for Lady Lions The Freed-Hardeman Lady Lion soccer team saw its season come to a close on Saturday morning, falling 3-0 to Cumberland University in the first round of the TranSouth Conference tournament. FHU finishes with a record of 10-6-3, with the 10 wins setting a program record for most in a season.

The Bulldogs opened the scoring in the 15th minute with the same combination they used to produce the golden goal in the second overtime in Tuesday night’s match at FHU. Rhianne Parsons took a pass from Helena Dimantas-Farias and beat Freed-Hardeman keeper Tiffany Harris to give Cumberland the early

lead.

Dimantas-Farias figured into Cumberland’s next goal as well, which came in the 56th minute when she set up a long strike by Katie Ongaro from outside the box. Six minutes later, CU extended its lead to 30 when Renee LaRose headed in a corner kick by Ongaro. Cumberland outshot FHU 12-3, with two of the Lady Lions’ shots coming in the last five minutes of play.

It was the final match in the careers of Harris, Nikki Ceeney, Helena Yegros, Leanne Harbach, Cassie Perkins and Lindsay Riggs. The seniors were part of two teams that set single-season wins records, with nine in 2008 and 10 this

season.

Cumberland spoils senior night Parsons’ golden goal in the 106th minute put a sour end to senior night for the Freed-Hardeman Lady Lions as they dropped a 2-1 double overtime decision to Cumberland University Nov. 2.

It was the final home match for FreedHardeman seniors Yegros, Harris, Nikki Ceeney, Leanne Harbach, Lindsay Riggs and Cassie Perkins.

Newby’s assist in the first half was her 10th of the season, leaving her one short of tying the program record for the most in a season set by Leslie Tiensvold in 2002.

Lion basketball wins opener The No. 23-ranked Freed-Hardeman Lions held off an experienced Bryan College team in the Lions’ season opener, starting the year off with a 64-58 win on Saturday afternoon.

The Lions got 29 points from their point guard combination of Anthony Sampson and Cedric Austin. Sampson tied his

career high with 16 points while Austin, in his first game back after missing the 2009-10 season, contributed 13 off the bench.

Both hit big shots in crucial moments and combined to go 5-for-6 from behind the arc.

FHU led for the majority of the game but couldn’t quite put away Bryan (32), which stayed close by

knocking down mid-range jumpers and playing an aggressive defensive style that resulted in 21 turnovers by FreedHardeman.

The Lions, though, canned 11 three-pointers, many of which seemed to come when Bryan was chipping away at the lead.

The Lions next host Lee Saturday at 3 p.m.

Senior Adam Shackelford, and other CCHS seniors, addressed the team following the Eagles’ 12-7 seasonending contest Friday at Greenbrier.

From Page 1-B

CCHS get on the board later in the period, when a muffed punt reception landed in the arms of Eagle Jake Melaro at Greenbrier’s 32-yard line. However, four plays later CCHS gave the ball up on downs.

Late in the half Greenbrier faced a fourth down and two situation.

They brought the punt team in the game, but snapped short to Josh Osborne who ran through the surprised Eagle defense 39 yards giving Hunter Eden a chance to go the final two yards and 12-0 lead at intermission.

The second half was a much different story. Platt blocked a Greenbrier punt giving CCHS the ball at

the hosts’ 36-yard line. On third down and nine, CCHS opened up its bag of tricks, and Melaro took a double reverse handoff and tossed the ball 30yards to Dylan Williams for a first down and goal at the four-yard line. Platt ran the final three yards for a CCHS touchdown on the first play of the fourth quarter, and Brandon Rodriguez’ kick made the score 12-7.

The suspense continued over the final four minutes with Chester County throwing two fourth down desperation passes that were both intercepted. The final one ended the Eagles’ season.

Greenbrier had 289 yards rushing, but only 88 in the second half. The Eagles pounded out 150yards total offense.

First quarter: None.

Second quarter: (9:52) G – Osborne 53 run (kick failed), [0-6]. (2:50) G – Eden 2 run (run failed), [0-12].

Third quarter: None.

Chester County

Ala., to visit Hailey Dancy’s aunt. While there, he saw the boll weevil statue and the high school that was damaged in a tornado several years ago. He also visited a community college to see if he might like to attend there in the future.

Flat Stanley later made a trip to Memphis and Virginia Beach, Va., to visit some of Lillie McCarver’s relatives.

He went to the Orpheum Theater in Memphis and got to see Wicked, the musical.

He brought back his ticket.

He had his picture taken at a statue of Neptune in Virginia Beach. The class learned from a letter that Flat Stanley would disappear during supper each night because he doesn’t like broccoli.

Last Thursday night Flat Stanley went to a town hall meeting in Jackson and heard Senator Bob Corker. After the meeting, Senator Corker was gracious enough to have his picture made with Flat Stanley and Tyler Blackwood’s dad.

Where will he go next?

Rosemary McKnight’s class is enjoying mapping his adventures and learning about all the places he has been.

The students enjoyed the Strong Man assembly last week. We learned to be friends and not bullies!

Third-grade students took pilot tests in reading and math on Monday and Tuesday.

Progress reports will go home Thursday, Nov. 11.

Don’t forget to participate in our Pizza Hut night from 4-8 p.m. on Nov. 17. A portion of the sales will benefit our students.

We continue to soar like eagles at East Chester!

“Muscle Man” teaches at East Bud Jeffries, center, came to East Chester Elementary on Nov. 2, demonstrating his impressive muscles while presenting a powerful message to the students.

Jeffries bent I-bars, lifted a table with two teachers and eight students on it, and let Coach Chad Hanna drop a bowling ball on his stomach while Hanna was standing on top of a ladder. Jeffries’ message to the students was threefold: be a champion in life; bullying is never acceptable; and you are strong enough to be nice.

In the photo above, Jeffries is about to use his bare hand to drive a nail into a board held by Samuel Phillips, left, and Mason Anderson.

By Misty Hall West Chester’s last PTO meeting was full of smiles as the children were entertained by illusionist, Mr. Seaton. We would like to thank him for sharing this amazing talent! West Chester is now the proud owner of a new Cricut Expression (electric dye cut machine) thanks to former West Chester teacher, Sherry Thompson.

Sherry entered a contest to win a new Cricut for a school of her choice and she won it for West! Thanks, Mrs.

Kindergarten students have begun to learn all about the first Thanksgiving and what it means to be thankful.

Teachers in kindergarten would also like to thank the parents for such a great turn-out at the Parent Involvement Meeting last week.

First-graders have been busy learning about contractions, fact families and solid figures. Ask your first-grader what a vertice is! Emily Brown’s class enjoyed a lesson about extinct animals. The lesson was taught by FreedHardeman University practicum student, Caty Douglas. The class is also enjoying their guest readers from the FHU basketball team.

Second-graders have enjoyed studying folk tales in reading. They are working hard on math skills such as two-digit addition and subtraction with regrouping. Second-grade students have also been discussing the electoral process.

Third-grade classes are busy with learning and

improving skills for the upcoming Think Link test in December. The students are tested three times during the year and each time, scores should improve. The teachers really like this assessment because it is immediate feedback for the students’ needs. The third-grade students took an assessment this week that is a pilot program for reading and math. Parent Involvement for the third grade will be at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 11, in the school cafeteria. After

a hot dog supper, Sarah Hibbett will speak to the students and parents.

We would like to ask that all children dress in red, white and blue on Thursday, Nov. 11, in honor of all our veterans.

Don’t forget about our Hunt Brothers Pizza Fundraiser at Skinners!

When you order a Hunt Brothers pizza, save the proof of purchase and return it to the school and we will receive $1 for each one!
