News Senators Fall to the Panthers
On Saturday, the Snake River Panthers continued a six game winning streak to take out the Gooding Senators with a 34 to 20 victory at Pocatello’s Holt Arena. The first quarter look promising for the Senator who took the lead 8 to 6 after 55 yard touchdown by Shawn Pamplona. The Gooding defense managed to keep the first quarter close which ended with Snake River in the lead 12 to 8. The second and third quarters found the Senators unable move the ball effectively as the Panther extended their lead - 20 to 8 at the half and 34 to 8 at the end of the third quarter. With less than 8 minutes left in the final quarter, the Senator stopped a drive by the Panthers and took possession at their own two yard line. The Senator offense then came alive and a minute and a half later, Cayden Loveland took a touchdown pass to bring the score to 34 and 14. Loveland would catch another pass with less than a minute in the game to make the final score 34 to 20. This Saturday, the 3A championship game will be played at the Holt Arena between the Snake River Panthers and the Fruitland Grizzlies.
November 7th Election Results
City elections don’t usually bring out as many voters as national races. For that reason, change can sometimes take place with relatively few votes. Unofficial results show a change of officials in several of our cities. In Richfield, Levi Long (46) and Mark Whitesell (36) were top vote getters in a five way race for city council. The other candidates were Ron Holland (35), Daniel Ward (32) and Tammy Wayment (17). In Shoshone, Mayor Daniel Pierson will retain his position with 192 votes. Sharon Pennington received 94 votes. In Hagerman, Alan Jay received 102 votes to put him on the city council along with Steven Bland with 97 votes. Carl Jeffries will give up his seat with only 73 votes. In Wendell, Herb Allred took 134 vote for city council. Seaira Gold took 120 vote and will take over the seat held by Francis Parish (68).
The big change was in the City of Gooding. Jeff Brekke beat out Walter Nelson for mayor 286 to 218. For city council Chuck Cram (271) and Colin Smith (254) will take over from Diane Houser (211) and Mel Magnelli (209). In Lincoln County, the Shoshone Joint School District needed a 2/3 majority to approve their bond election. 307 voters said “yes” and 173 voters said “no” leaving the school district two percentage points short of approval. Ten “yes” votes would have given them what they wanted. Also in Lincoln County, Kathy Marsh keeps her seat on the Lincoln County Recreation District with 356 votes over challenger Danny Logan (240). The big winners in the November 7th election were Gooding’s Fire District and the Hagerman Cemetery District. Both entities won nearly 3/4 of voter approval.

Letters to the Editor
Thank you for your vote of confidence and support in our recent City Election. Serving on city council is a privilege I do not take lightly. Herb Allred - Wendell City Council
Dear Editor: I don’t come to Fairfield like I used to, but the other day it was pointed out to me that the city is upset with Bill Knox. Supposedly Bill built a couple of sheds without permits. I don’t understand why Bill shouldn’t think he can do anything he wants on his property. Some years ago the city allowed Bill to build his fence 14 feet out in the road. Not to mention that the fence was totally in noncompliance with the cities ordinance. The current City Council and the P&Z have condoned this fence remaining in place, despite safety factors and total non-compliance with the city’s Ordinance. So why shouldn’t Bill think he can do anything he wants on his property. Bill I don’t like you but I support you in this instance. I’ve lived here off and on for 28 years. The city has different rules for different people. If you’re in the Fairfield gang you’re good. If you’re an outsider you’re in trouble. I don’t think Fairfield is capable of waking up anytime soon. Best wishes, Bill Easterwood

obit ua r ies
Shiela Rich Dorius, 65, a resident of Wendell, passed away on Tuesday, November 7, 2017 at Bennett Hills Care Center in Gooding. Shiela was born on November 26, 1951 in Wendell, Idaho, the daughter of Thomas and Pearl Gold Rich. She was raised and educated in Wendell and attended Ricks College and Boise State University. She married Rex Don Dorius on June 23, 1972 in the Idaho Falls L.D.S. Temple. She was a very vibrant young woman and mother. In her younger years and before the Multiple Sclerosis prevented it, she played the piano and enjoyed doing needlework including knitting, crocheting and embroidering. She was an active member of the LDS church and enjoyed leading the congregational hymns in Sacrament Meetings. Her father passed away when she was 12 years old. Shiela loved children and spent many years with a daycare in her home while raising her two daughters. She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis as a young mother and struggled with the disease and its effects for the rest of her life. She is survived by: her two daughters, DawnRae Wheeler (Jason) of Salt Lake City and RaeAnn Moore (Chris) of Spokane, WA; three grandchildren, Parker Wheeler, Hayden Wheeler and Bo Moore; and her brother, Charles Rich. She was preceded in death by her mother and father and her ex-husband, Rex Don Dorius. A graveside service will be held on Tuesday, November 14, 2017 at 11:00 am at the Wendell Cemetery.

Betty E. Bishop
Betty E Bishop, a longtime resident of Bliss, Idaho, passed away in her sleep in her home on Friday, November 3, 2017. Mom was born in Acequia, Idaho on the June 9th, 1932, the only daughter of Dick and Stella Reed. Along with her older brother, Jim, and two younger brothers, Bill and Bob, she moved with her parents to the Shoestring Road area south of Gooding, and then to a farm in Tuttle, Idaho where she grew up. While swimming in an irrigation canal near the farm she met Samuel Bishop Jr. in the summer of 1948. They were married March 12th, 1949 in Gooding and then began their life together in an apartment in Bliss. They built a two-room house on an acreage and moved into it in the fall of 1950. The mortgage was $600.00 and Mom mentioned how worried she was that they would be able to get it paid off. Later they added on 3 bedrooms and a bathroom, after they had two boys and two girls in their family. Mom and Dad lived together in that home until he passed away on May 22nd, 2011. Mom considered being a wife and a mother to be the highest calling in her life. Trying to make it on Dad’s income as a railroad worker was challenging so at times Mom worked as a cook for the Bliss School District and later as a cook and waitress at the Circle Bar restaurant in Bliss, but most of her life was focused on supporting her husband, raising her children in righteousness, and managing the family finances. She cooked and sewed and canned, and kept the family out of debt. For years Dad’s work kept him gone all week, so she also managed the farm work on the place. Until her boys were finally old enough to reach the pedals the 1950 John Deere M Tractor was ‘Her Tractor.’ As her children grew up she was a Den Mother for her boys, took her girls to Job’s Daughters, and was a 4-H Leader as her children learned about gardening, cooking, sewing, and raising livestock. She enjoyed riding horses and would go with Dad in the fall as he packed into an elk hunting camp in the Sawtooth Forests. She had her own rifle but would rather sit in camp and enjoy a good book instead of hiking up and down the hills. In the summer of 1968 she was the instigator of a weeklong family horseback trip into the upper reaches of the Salmon, the Payette, and the Boise Rivers. Mom set the standards for being clean and neat, and for conduct. Some of her adages were: Keep your words soft and sweet, because you never know which ones you will eat. And: There is so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us, that it does not behoove any of us to talk about the rest of us. But Mom was also known for her sense of humor and willingness to tease or take a joke. Dad was known for telling poems, stories, and jokes, but the quick zings and dry repartees came from Mom. Mom came to know her Savior in her 40s. She attended the Hagerman Christian Center and then the Bliss Community Church until her declining health slowed her down. She did the flowers for the Sunday Services, taught Sunday School, attended Bible Study, and served as the Camp Cook for a Construction Mission to the Marshall Islands. Her faith in the Lord gave her such great hope and confidence of life

on-the-ground vary greatly from area to area throughout the Forest. In some places it may be necessary to cross-country ski or use a snow machine to access cutting areas.” There are a few areas that are off limits for cutting Christmas trees. These include campgrounds, administrative sites, ski areas, summer home sites and organization camps. “People will be provided with information when they purchase their permit,” said Thomas. “This will include maps and rules for cutting trees.” Thomas advised people to be well prepared when going into the forest to cut their tree. “Weather and road conditions can change quite rapidly at this time of the year. We encourage people to take extra food and clothing and let someone know where you plan to go and when you plan to return.” Additionally, in support of Every Kid in a Park, the Sawtooth National Forest will offer one free Christmas tree permit to fourth graders who present a valid paper or durable Every Kid in a Park pass. The fourth grader must be present at the time the permit is issued and must be picked up before you cut your tree. The free Christmas tree permit will not be available at local vendors, but is available at all Sawtooth National Forest offices in Twin Falls, Burley, Fairfield, Ketchum, Stanley and Sawtooth National Recreation Area headquarters.

Cup of Tee
It was a late night. My friend and I worked our regular jobs, then we were on a mission to hand sack potatoes. By early morning we were both hungry for breakfast. One of my favorites anytime is hashbrowns and gravy. They are hard to beat unless the gravy is from a can. Homemade gravy is a good food group all on its own, but of course, potatoes fit every need! My friend and I loaded up in the pickup and headed for breakfast, meaning I already had plans for hashbrowns and gravy, home cooked. When I walked into the cafe which was in Eastern Idaho, there were a bunch of potholders and nic nack type stuff in front of the cash register. That is not uncommon for small country kitchens to make related sales to keep the cash flow going. I didn’t see the traditional cooler where the self-serve beverages were stored. Maybe the cooler was old and had to be replaced. Oh well, things happen. I walked around the corner and sat at one of the tables with multiple chairs. The decorations in the room were handmade rugs. I didn’t remember any of those. In fact, I remember tractor, cow and horse pictures. I sat for quite a while and no one seemed to be taking my order or even offering me something to drink. I told my friend, “Boy, I’ve never had service like this here. They are always johnny on the spot. I don’t have a problem waiting on good food, but they are sure on the slow side today.”

IN THE DISTRICT COURT FOR THE 5TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT FOR THE STATE OF IDAHO, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF CAMAS Finally a person came over to me and asked,
by Tee Hurd
“Did you bring your stuff for crafts?” I was really puzzled. “Crafts?” I said. “No, I just want an order of hashbrown and gravy with a side order of ham.” “I’m sorry to tell you, but the restaurant has been closed over a year,” said the person. “This is a craft/hobby shop now.” Boy was I ever lost. No wonder every thing looked like homemade knit products instead of homemade kneaded products (homemade bread). I think I was a little out of place. The pickup outside with the dogs in it must have been the new owners. I sure was fooled. The restaurant was at the end of the line with nothing else nearby. A good breakfast was on hold. As my friend and I drove towards the next town, 50 miles away, a truck was approaching my vehicle very fast. The truck was lit up like a rolling Christmas tree. It had a brush guard on it big enough to move trains. The windows were slightly tinted and a big metal visor didn’t allow the driver to be seen. The scene behind me was similar to one of those killing scenes in a Mad Max movie. That truck was on a mission and I looked like breakfast. For a moment I thought maybe that truck had stopped at the same old restaurant as my friend and I with no hashbrowns and the knit goods. Then the truck blew by me like I was sitting still. Whew!! Today, this is my “Cup of Tee” minus hashbrowns and gravy on a paper plate to go...
