Legislature focuses on education

BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Most Mississippi lawmakers could likely agree on one thing as the 2017 Legislature session got underway this week - a change in public education funding must happen this year.

House Speaker Philip Gunn and Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, both

Republicans, said they want to make changes to the 20-yearold education funding formula.

Gunn said he’s looking for more efficiency, not less overall money.

But EdBuild - the company hired by the state last summer to research the funding formula - said this week they

don’t anticipate recommending a reduction in spending. Any change would cause losses for some school districts and gains for others, unless lawmakers find money to increase total spending.

The current formula, called the Mississippi Adequate Education Program, was put into

law 20 years ago but has been fully funded only twice.

Legislators have ran a cumulative $1.9 billion short in MAEP funding since 2009.

Local districts continue to suffer from the shortfall as well.

In 2017, the underfunding of Please see EDUCATION | 2A

A local descendant of one of the Civil War’s most celebrated naval officers is helping to bring more authenticity to the Verandah-Curlee House.

Michael Semmes, a descendant of Confederate Admiral Raphael Semmes, donated an almost 200-year-old pair of “love seats” for the furniture collection of the historic antebellum residence.

Local officials are stressing fire safety as Mother Nature continues to weave her icy spell upon the Crossroads area.

With slippery, frozen roads and frigid temperatures, many took a snow day from work and school Friday in favor of cozy, indoor warmth.

While it is tempting to snuggle in for a long winter’s nap, residents should pay special attention to the fire hazards which may exist in their homes.

Responding to the need for extra precautions, Commissioner of Insurance and State Fire Marshal Mike Chaney is asking that all Mississippians start the New Year off by practicing heating and fire safety.

“Using heating sources in a proper manner to stay warm during cold weather and having working smoke alarms in your home is literally the difference between life and death,” said Chaney. “Every home should have a working smoke alarm. Working smoke alarms can cut the risk of people dying in home fires

in half.”

Fire safety education and preventing fire deaths continue to be priority goals of the State Fire Marshal’s office, which investigated over 50 reported fire deaths in 2016.

While preparing for cold weather, the State Fire Marshal’s office offers the following heating safety tips: • Have a three-foot “kidfree zone” around open fires and space heaters.

• Supervise children when a fireplace, fire pit, or other space heater is being used.

Use a sturdy, metal screen to prevent contact burns, which are even more common than flame burns.

• All heaters need space.

Keep things that can burn, such as paper, bedding or furniture at least 3 feet away from heating equipment.

• Use heating equipment that has the label of a recognized testing laboratory.

• Never use your oven for heating.

• Install stationary space heating equipment, water

Penny Stevens has worked at Avectus Healthcare Solutions for over five years.

Her current position is lien coordinator. Her favorite part of the job is working with her co-workers. “We all have different teams, so your team is like a big family,” said the Stevens. “That’s my favorite part, learning about everybody’s families, births and weddings. Being part of the group is like a family.” When not at work she enjoys spending time with her husband, Blane, and their two dogs, Kansas and Coco. “I’m an only child, so my parents always say that’s their grandpuppies,” she said. Stevens, 43, graduated from Corinth High School in 1992. “I’m one of the last class that graduated from the old high school,” she pointed out. She is a member of Wheeler Grove Baptist Church.

Verandah House,” said Larry Mangus, president of the Friends of the Siege and Battle of Corinth.

“They are in excellent condition and just a wonderful furniture addition as we hope to soon begin the restoration of the interior of the home.”

Verandah-Curlee House Director Stephanie Hutson said the love seat donations fit perfectly with the theme of the home, which was utilized as a headquarters for generals during the Civil War. She said the relics will help provide visitors a firsthand experience of how people lived in the era before the war.

“We love our donation pieces,” said Hutson. “It’s a wonderful feeling to know people are so generous to give to one of the very few historic landmarks that are open to the public.”

The Verandah-Curlee House is currently closed for winter, but will reopen in March after undergoing renovations and some rearrangement of the furniture. Hutson said the placement of the love seats will likely be in the parlor room of the house.

“That’s one of the first rooms where people come into the house and what visitors will see first when we do a tour,” Hutson explained.

The donor of the love seats is Michael Semmes of Counce, Tenn., a direct descendant of Admiral Raphael Semmes and an avid member of Corinth’s Col. William P. Rogers Camp of the Sons of Con-

federate Veterans.

Semmes said the love seats were in his family since 1958, when his mother purchased them from an antique dealer in Florence, Ala. He said he is happy they will have a permanent home at the Verandah-Curlee House where they will be appreciated for their historical interest.

Semmes’ ancestor was captain of the CSS Alabama, a Confederate sloop-of-war that sailed forth “to destroy the commerce of the North” — as the story is passed down in the period song “Roll, Alabama, Roll.”

With Admiral Semmes at the helm, the Alabama inflicted $270,000 worth of damage to the United States economy in one two-weeks period of September 1862 and captured a total of 65 Northern vessels before the end of its run, making Semmes the most successful commerce raider in maritime history.

The Alabama “went to her watery grave” — sunk by the USS Kearsarge just off the French port of Cherbourg on June 19, 1864.

Semmes survived the battle and the war, spending his later years navigating the fallout from his wartime exploits. From being charged with treason by the U.S. government in 1865 to defending his role in the war in his “Memoirs of Service Afloat During The War Between The States,” Semmes lived in the shadow of the American Civil War until his death in Mobile, Ala., in 1877.

EDUCATION CONTINUED FROM 1A

MAEP will cost the Alcorn School District $1.2 million. The Corinth School District will also see a loss of just under $950,000.

The shortfall in funding, under both Democratic and Republican administrations, has been a constant source of conflict.

District 2 Rep. Nick Bain (DCorinth) said he is open to change but wants to know more.

“Right now I just do not have enough information, but what I do know is I am tired of seeing my school districts struggle due to the underfunding,” said Bain. “I’m unsure what we will see this session ... what options we will have, but I want my districts to see more funding if possible.”

One advocacy group wants to help people across the Magnolia State stay informed about the the good and the bad when it comes to education related bills this session.

Nancy Loome with the Mississippi Parents’ Campaign advocacy group said hundreds of education bills get introduced each year.

“We want to make sure people know the difference in good and bad education bills so they can help legislators understand the ef-

fect they have on the schools and communities,” said Loome about the guide to pro- and anti-public education bills her group released earlier this week.

Loome said pro-public educations bills should provide teachers and students the resources they need to be successful when competing with their peers in Mississippi and across the U.S., keep public dollars in public schools, maintain high standards for all public schools, keep Mississippi’s College and Career Readiness Standards, give parents reasonable, fair and objective measures by which to determine how well students are achieving, provide every child a high quality early learning experience and strengthen teacher education programs and teacher licensure.

She said anti-public education bills would revise the school funding formula to decrease the amount that state law requires Legislators to provide public school students, take away the right of local school boards to increase local school funding to pay for local programs, take tax dollars away from public schools and send them to private academies (vouchers and tax credit scholarships), change the way

school board members are selected, decrease the standards charter schools are required to meet in order to open a school, allow charter schools to locate in school districts rated A, B and C and increase testing and add administrative responsibilities and unfunded mandates at the local level.

Loome’s group has developed a alert system to notify people when anti-public education bills are introduced or advanced in Jackson.

“It’s all about providing parents and other concerned citizens with information about legislative initiatives concerning Mississippi public education,” said Loome. “It also gives parents, educators, community and business leaders, and other public school supporters a way to participate in decisions that affect public schools.”

Today in History Today is Sunday, Jan. 8, the eighth day of 2017. There are 357 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Jan. 8, 1867, the U.S. House of Representatives joined the Senate in overriding President Andrew Johnson’s veto of the District of Columbia Suffrage Bill, giving black men in the nation’s capital the right to vote.

On this date: In 1790, President George Washington delivered his first State of the Union address to Congress in New York.

In 1815, the last major engagement of the War of 1812 came to an end as U.S. forces defeated the British in the Battle of New Orleans, not having gotten word of the signing of a peace treaty.

In 1918, President Woodrow Wilson outlined his Fourteen Points for lasting peace after World War I. Mississippi became the first state to ratify the 18th Amendment to the Constitution, which established Prohibition.

In 1935, rock-and-roll legend Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi.

In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson, in his State of the Union address, declared an “unconditional war on poverty in America.”

SELMER, Tenn. — McNairy Central teacher John Prince has resigned and will soon be leaving the school district for a job with District2District. He will be the Director of Mathematics Support for the Nashville company working with different school systems in Tennessee and Florida.

Prince will continue teaching at MCHS until Jan. 18 when he begins his new job. He will be leading a team of math consultants to help teachers and students improve their math skills.

He still will be based in McNairy County and will travel some with his new work.

“The Prince family will remain in McNairy County and we still love what the McNairy County School District is doing with our children,” said Prince. “Mollie will continue teaching at Ramer while Miller will graduate at McNairy Central, Major and Grace Ann will keep going to school at Ramer.”

District2District is a new nonprofit created by former Assistant Tennessee Education Commissioner of Curriculum and Instruction Emily Barton Freitag. The company is working to build a collaborative of small school systems to address curriculum and instruction, where a more specific and specialized approach is often needed.

Prince met Freitag while she was working for Tennessee’s Department of Education and he was serving on a committee to improve math curriculum in Tennessee. He has already done some freelance consulting for the company.

The mission of the company is to help children reach their potential when they are challenged and supported with excellent teaching. District2District seeks to help school districts improve instruction in core academics by serving as a hub of quality support.

“Our team will go into school districts to observe teachers and students,” related Prince.

“We will make sure they are following the standards of teaching to allow the students to learn at a high level.”

A former McNairy County Director of Schools, Prince has taught Honors Geometry and Bridge Math (seniors only) at MCHS this year. He served as the Director of Schools for 27 months.

He came to McNairy County after serving as the principal at Trenton Middle School. Prince had been a teacher/football coach in McNairy County from 1994-2003. In his 24th year of education, he had previously taught at Ramer School, Adamsville High School, and McNairy Central.

Prince moved to his hometown of Trenton where he taught for six-years after leaving McNairy County in 2003. He was the Trenton district’s math coach and data specialist for two years and became the principal at Trenton Middle School in June 2012. Prince began his teaching/coaching career at Huntingdon High School.

Corinth, Miss.

Our View

Police chief declares war on drugs; let’s support efforts Corinth Police Chief Ralph Dance is taking a tough stance on illegal drug use.

We support his leadership, the Corinth Police Department and the narcotics division in their efforts is this war at home which is destroying local families.

The Corinth Police Department has promised more to come after a recent large drug bust in the city.

Dance believes the narcotics division is making good progress and is not going to slow down.

“If you are selling dope, you better relocate or retire, one or the other,” Dance told the Daily Corinthian.

“We’re coming after you. Methamphetamine is running wild in this city and county, and we’re fixing to hit them hard.”

We like this tough stance and pledge all of our support toward the narcotics division. We hopes the community does as well.

Police recently seized a large quantity of drugs, a couple of firearms and about $1,600 in cash. A man was charged with possession of cocaine with intent to sell, possession of marijuana with intent to sell, possession of a schedule II controlled substance (Adderall) with intent to sell, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and possession of a stolen firearm.

The police chief said it was one of the larger drug busts the city has seen in some time.

Officers seized approximately 1,000 grams of marijuana, 131 grams of cocaine, nine Hydrocodone pills, 30 Xanax pills and eight Adderall pills, along with drug paraphernalia. One of the seized firearms was stolen out of Benton County.

We hope more arrests are made and we stand ready to make these arrests - and ultimately convictions known to the public.

BP money should go to the coast Now is the time to speak up.

The Mississippi House and Senate are in session for the next 89 days and on one of those days they could decide the fate of more than $700 million from the BP economic-damages settlement.

The logical place for that money is on the Coast, where BP’s Deepwater Horizon disaster damaged businesses, jobs and lives. It belongs on the Coast, where the investment could bring a return that will benefit the entire state. A vibrant Coast tourism and industrial economy brings in tax money we willingly share with the state.

Logic doesn’t always guide the state House and Senate.

There are those in the House and Senate who, without the benefit of knowing the Coast, assume we have been made whole. We know that isn’t the case.

And that’s where you, the people of the Coast, come in.

We need an outpouring of stories of the damage BP brought to your lives. We need the stories of businesses and opportunities lost.

Did your restaurant close? Does your charter business have fewer bookings? Did you lose your job?

Tell that to those people from the upper reaches of the state.

Rep. Scott DeLano, a South Mississippi lawmaker, told a poignant story of a hamburger stand that, despite the help of family and friends, didn’t survive. It went under not because it lost customers but because its employees left for $2,000-a-week paychecks from BP and the stand couldn’t hire quality replacements.

That is the kind of story that hasn’t reached the ears of those in Jackson and beyond. We understand the state budget is tight and that money is scarce throughout the state. But it would be shortsighted to use this one-time money to plug a budget full of recurring expenses. This is money best invested for the long haul on projects that promise a return to the state treasury year after year. And the most likely place to get that kind of a return is in the Coast counties.

We have some powerful voices — Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves and Gov. Phil Bryant — on our side. Our delegation is unified in this cause.

All they need is you. And the more of you, the better.

Here are the email addresses of all the representatives and senators from the Coast. Send them plenty of ammo for the coming fight.

The Sun Herald

Prayer for today Almighty God, help me to understand that peace does not come in rebellion or grieving, but is obtained through the calm of the soul. Grant that if I may be perplexed or worried to-day, I may have the power to control myself and wait in thy strength. Amen.

A verse to share Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!

— 2 Corinthians 5:17

State confronts public health care realities STARKVILLE — What is the future of public health care in Mississippi if Congress proceeds with the Republican majority’s plan to do away with the Affordable Care Act? Mississippi’s sad litany of chronic health problems are now familiar – diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and the highest infant mortality rate in the nation – as is the state’s status as the poorest U.S. state.

Sarah Varney of Kaiser Health News in exposed some of our state’s lesser known but even more cruel health ironies, observing that Mississippi has the nation’s highest rate of leg amputations while one of the nation’s lowest rates of simple blood testing, used to monitor and prevent diabetes complications.

Even sadder was Varney’s finding that our state has high breast cancer death rates despite a relatively low incidence of breast cancer diagnoses. The fact is that by the time many cases were diagnosed, the cancer had advanced too far.

Just as well known in government circles is the fact that despite those health care challenges and the unrelenting poverty that exacerbates them, Mississippi avoided the Affordable Care Act or “Obamacare” like the veritable plague.

The proposed Medicaid expansion that was part and parcel to ACA got the same cold shoulder. In 2014, Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant said: “For us to enter into an expansion program would be a fool’s errand. I mean, here we would be saying to 300,000 Mississippians,

‘We’re going to provide Medicaid coverage to you,’ and then the federal government through Congress or through the Senate, would do Sid Salter away with or alter Columnist the Affordable Care Act, and then we have no way to pay that. We have no way to continue the coverage.”

Now, after the Republican takeover of the U.S. Senate and the election of Republican Donald Trump as president, Bryant may soon be a political prophet if the new Republican majority in Congress makes good on the stated intent of many to repeal the ACA. In 2013, Bryant defined his perception of the issue in Mississippi more succinctly: ““Medicaid expansion puts another 300,000 Mississippians on the Medicaid rolls. We have 640,000 people on Medicaid. That is 940,000 Mississippians on Medicaid. We cannot financially sustain that.”

Bryant’s assessment also plays to many legislators who know all too well that that perhaps the single most difficult thing for them to do and survive politically is to first extend a service to a constituent and then a few years down the road take it away.

Mississippi’s decision not to expand Medicaid under ACA left around 138,000 Mississippians without Medicaid coverage by Kai-

ser Family Foundation estimates.

Despite that, total Medicaid spending in Mississippi (adjusted for inflation) over the period 2000 to 2012 doubled from $2.6 billion in 2000 to $4.6 billion in 2012. For the same period nationally, Medicaid spending in the U.S. grew from $263.7 billion to $429.2 billion.

Based on those numbers, the study proved Medicaid spending in Mississippi grew over that period by 76 percent while the national growth rate in Medicaid spending was 63 percent.

If Congress dispatches the ACA, the fact remains in Mississippi that public health care is the second largest expenditure by the states after they pay for their educational systems.

Mississippi’s poverty dictates that demand for public health care in this state is not likely to decrease. Therefore, the wild card then becomes the cost of uncompensated care, which is also subsidized by taxpayers and health insurance ratepayers.

Historically, Mississippi has offered a more generous public health care program than state taxpayers truly funded – paying the difference with the three federal dollars the state receives for every dollar paid in federal taxes.

So the public health care questions in poor states like Mississippi become what is next for public health care and who pays? Mississippi taxpayers – both state and local – may well not like the answers.

Replace Obamacare with the free market One of President-elect Donald Trump’s major campaign promises is to “repeal and replace” Obamacare.

Vice President Joe Biden recently dared him to do so. Biden knows that 20 million Americans have health insurance that didn’t before Obamacare, and they represent 20 million stories on CNN, MSNBC and The New York Times — in the entire “health care is a right” crowd — when and if Trump follows through.

Sure, despite President Barack Obama’s promises to the contrary, some people lost their health care coverage and some people lost their doctors. And no, the average family did not save $2,500 per year as Obama insisted would be the case. And yes, health insurance premiums, copays and deductibles are going up even though Obama promised that his plan would “bend the cost curve” down.

All that matters to the antiTrump media is that there is now an entire class of people to exert pressure against the repeal of Obamacare. Many Republicans say they want to keep “the good parts of Obamacare,” specifically the prohibition against denying insurance based on a pre-existing condition and forcing insurance carriers to keep a “child” on his or her parents’ policy until the child is 26.

Republicans promised to not only repeal but to “replace” Obamacare.

How can they do this -- and replace it with what?

Republicans, despite their unanimous opposition against Obamacare, bought into at least two premises that its proponents argued. The first is that health care is a right — or, if not a right, at least something whose costs the federal government should reduce. The second is that, having made the decision to inter-

vene in health care, the federal government possesses the knowledge, wisdom and judgment to reduce its costs to make it “affordable.”

Larry The feds, promised Elder Obamacare advocates, can even make Columnist health care affordable without reducing quality.

If the goal were truly to make health care more affordable, Obamacare would be as laughably wrongheaded as other Obama boondoggles like “cash for caulkers” or “cash for clunkers.” No, the real goal is taxpayer-paid health care. Both ex-DNC chair Howard Dean and ex-Senate leader Harry Reid said so.

To reduce costs in health care, or, for that matter, in any commodity, is to unleash the free market.

Health care is particularly shackled by restrictions and regulations too numerous to mention. Here is just one example.

In the biographical movie “Hacksaw Ridge,” a World War II medic, Private Desmond Doss, a pacifist, refused to carry a rifle. In the midst of the carnage, during the Battle of Okinawa, Doss carried wounded soldiers and rappelled them down a cliff face to safety then treated them alongside the medics. He was awarded a Medal of Honor for saving scores of lives.

If, however, after the war, Pvt. Doss had opened an office with a shingle saying “Doss’ trauma unit,” authorities would have thrown him in jail for practicing medicine without a license. His skills were good enough for the soldiers on the battlefield, but not good enough for civilians when Doss returned stateside.

On a question-and-answer website, this question was recently posed: How do Marines feel about Navy corpsmen?

Here are some of the responses: “Personal experience -- I had my middle finger sewn back on by an E-5 corpsman. When a real doctor first saw it, he shouted, ‘Who did this?!’ I asked why and the Doc said that it was the best he had ever seen.

I have full use and feeling in that finger and that was 40 years ago.”

“Personal experience — I was shot in the leg. An E-4 corpsman, assisted by an E-5, treated me. No doctor could have done any better than they did.”

“History: Beginning in WWII, most ships the size of destroyers and smaller had enlisted men -corpsmen — as their only medical expert. Usually it was a Chief Petty Officer, but often was an E-6 and some had only an E-5.

“Then, as now, they did everything — surgery included. In WWII and every war since then, U.S. soldiers have had a higher survival rate than any other country’s military (enemy or allies) and most of that medical triage and vital systems treatment was by enlisted corpsmen.

“Outside the service, enlisted corpsmen are by far the preferable hire for civilian EMT and rescue jobs.”

If Congressional Republicans were serious about making health care affordable, they should sell the voters on the free market. Where’s the slogan for that?

heaters or central heating equipment, according to the local codes and manufacturer’s instructions.

• Have a qualified professional install the equipment.

• Make sure all fuelburning vented equipment is vented to the outside to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. CO is created when fuels burn incompletely. CO poisoning can cause illness and even death. Make sure the venting for exhaust is kept clear and unobstructed.

This includes removal of snow and ice around the outlet to the outside.

• Install and maintain carbon monoxide alarms to avoid risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Portable electric space heaters • Turn heaters off when you go to bed or leave the room.

• Use and purchase portable space heaters with an automatic shut off so if they’re tipped over, they will shut off.

• Place space heater on solid, flat surface.

• Plug power cords directly into outlets and never into an extension cord.

• Inspect for cracked or damaged, broken plugs or loose connections. Replace before using.

Fuel burning space heaters • Always use the proper fuel as specified by the manufacturer.

• When refueling, allow the appliance to cool and refuel outside or in a wellventilated area.

• When using the heat-

“Many of the fires we see this time of year are due to space heaters, particularly in mobile homes and campers due to the load it brings on the electrical service panels.”

Chief Jonathan Rider Biggersville Fire & Rescue er, open a window to ensure proper ventilation.

• In portable kerosene or other liquid-fueled space heaters, always use the proper grade of the proper fuel.

• All new unvented gasfired space heaters have an oxygen depletion sensor that detects a reduced level of oxygen in the area where the heater is operating and shuts off the heater before a hazardous level of carbon monoxide accumulates. If you have an older heater without this feature, replace it.

• If the pilot light of your gas heater goes out, allow 5 minutes or more for the gas to go away before trying again, do not allow gas to accumulate, and light the match before you turn on the gas to the pilot to avoid risk of flashback.

• If you smell gas in your gas heater, do not attempt to light the appliance. Turn off all the controls and open doors and window. Call a gas service

professional.

Wood burning stoves • Install the stove, chimney connectors and chimneys following manufacturer’s instructions, or have a professional do the installation.

• Wood stoves should bear the label of a recognized testing laboratory.

• In wood stoves, burn only dry, seasoned wood.

In pellet stoves, burn only dry, seasoned wood pellets.

• Start the fire with newspaper or kindling, never with a flammable liquid, such as lighter fluid, kerosene or gasoline.

• Keep the doors of your wood stove closed unless loading or stoking the live fire.

• Allow ashes to cool before disposing. Dispose of ashes in a tightly covered metal container, and

keep the ash container at least 10 feet away from the home and any other nearby buildings. Douse and saturate with water.

• Also, be a good neighbor. Check with the elderly or relatives and friends who may need additional assistance to ensure their safety. If you lose your heat, seal off unused rooms by stuffing towels in the cracks under the doors. At night, cover windows with extra blankets or sheets.

Should a fire break out in the home, have an emergency evacuation plan for the family to follow and have a designated meeting place for all family members. Once everyone is outside the burning home, call 911 and do not re-enter the home under any circumstances.

Biggersville Fire & Res-

cue Chief Jonathan Rider also stressed fire safety with the plummeting temperatures.

“Many of the fires we see this time of year are due to space heaters, particularly in mobile homes and campers due to the load it brings on the electrical service panels,” he said. “Many of the newer models come with an automatic shut-off feature in case the heaters were to tip over, but older heaters may not. Items like blankets, clothing, curtains and flammable upholstered furniture should be kept away from from space heaters or any other heat sources.”

Rider also recommends that those using natural gas and propane heaters exercise caution and be aware of the tell-tell signs of the carbon mon-

oxide poisoning such as nausea, sleepiness, a dull headache, weakness, dizziness, vomiting, shortness of breath, confusion, blurred vision and loss of consciousness.

“Another thing that most don’t think about is that fire hydrants need to be clear of leaves, debris and vegetation so they can be easily accessed in the event that a fire does break out,” said the Chief.

“It won’t necessarily slow us down, but it does make things more difficult and we really don’t need to worry about the water freezing up on the truck.”

“Finally, it is a great idea to check on those who may have fallen behind on their bills and are in need of warmth since exposure can be a big concern this time of year for pets as well as people.”

Family business keeps quilting tradition alive

BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

Treasure Chest Quilting & More is the one-stop shop for everything related to quilting and sewing.

The business sells fabrics, patterns, books, machines for quilting and sewing (and service for both) and offers a variety of quilting and sewing classes for all skill levels. In addition to doing repairs on the machines they sell, they provide delivery and installation for their machines. Owner Teresa Lowrey and company also produce specialty quilts for the public.

The classes at Treasure Chest have become a popular regular event, most filling up shortly after they are announced via the business’ Facebook page and customer email list. Examples of classes include beginner free motion quilting, scan and cut class and intermediated quilting.

A wide variety of students sign up for the classes, Lowrey said, from teenagers to older ladies who grew up quilting.

The classes have become so popular that there is a

ion merchandising. “The economy was pretty bad and people thought I was a little crazy, but we took the plunge and worked hard at it and it’s done very well for us.”

Lowrey believes the appeal quilting has for many people is multi-faceted.

For some it’s a challenge, something to work at and see their skills improve, a craft that one can practice for a lifetime.

Her own connection with quilting began as a student at Northeast Mississippi Community College, when she took a basic sewing skills class under instructor Barbara McCoy. Then, when she had her first son, she decided to make quilt for him.

“I didn’t do much quilting for a while after that, but about 10 years later I took a class and I got the bug and went from there,” she said.

Quilting also has a therapeutic value, Lowrey has found.

“It’s good therapy. At the time the job I had was pretty stressful and it helped me to have that to do. It‘s relaxing and a gratification thing,” she

explained. “I think that a lot of problems with our society come from people having nowhere to channel their energy, and this causes some of our issues.

It’s a good thing to bring some of the basic skills back.”

There’s also the joy that comes from creating something for others.

“It’s something you can give to family and friends that lasts for years,” said Lowrey.

Treasure Chest is also a family business. Lowrey’s husband Eddie helps out in a variety of ways, including doing repairs on the machines and son Preston helps out in the store with sales as well as repairs.

With her family working at her side, Lowrey looks forward to many years of meeting the needs of quilting and sewing enthusiasts from the Crossroads area and beyond.

waiting list for upcoming classes.

“We try to do at least one or two every month,” said Lowrey. “Now we’re in the new building and have more space, we plan on having more classes.”

Lowrey started the business in 2010 in a 2,500 square foot shop in Harper Square Mall.

Last November Treasure Chest opened its doors in its current location, a 12,000 square foot headquarters on Highway 72.

In a time when walk-in stores face a stiff competition from internet sellers, the biggest asset a business can lean on is customer service. This is a crucial part of Treasure Chest.

“We pride ourselves on our customer service. If you come in here you can see and touch our products and get our help,” Lowrey said.

Lowrey said she was inspired to start the business after her workplace of 24 years shut its doors.

“I’d always wanted to open my own business, but the opportunity was never there,” said Lowrey, who has a degree in fash-

Mood swings cause young teen to question emotions D E A R ABBY: I am at the end of my wits, and I need some answers.

I am almost 13 and dread a Abigail being beVan Buren teenager cause I don’t want things Dear Abby to be complicated. I used to have depression and felt suicidal, but I never told anybody.

I eventually got over it and am now physically fine. But I’m not emotionally stable.

Recently, I was told things I don’t know how to react to.

Among them was, “Wow, your voice is deep,” and, “Your laugh sounds like a witch.” Most of the time I’m a happy-go-lucky person, but in the last few weeks I have been flickering from happy to sad and have no idea how I feel. It’s almost like I don’t know who I am anymore. I’m wondering, is this a mental disorder? Or am I simply being silly? -- CONFUSED TEEN IN THE SOUTH DEAR CONFUSED: I do not think you are being silly. However, I DO think you should have been discussing your feelings with your parents since the time you began feeling depressed to the point of feeling suicidal.

Whether or not your mood

swings are symptoms of something serious, I’m not qualified to say. But I hope you will show this letter to your parents and tell them you wrote it. If you do have some sort of mental disorder (which I doubt), the sooner you are properly diagnosed and treated, the better it will be for you.

DEAR ABBY: My wife and I attended a party hosted by a well-respected couple who love to entertain. They have a spotless, beautiful home and are the essence of what you would hope to find in party hosts. Upon our arrival, we were greeted at the door, but before we could step inside, the stench of cat urine overpowered us. It was overwhelming, and we have to assume that everyone else smelled it, too.

My wife and I are torn about to what to do. We have great respect for this couple. They are pillars of our community.

I say, to save future embarrassment, that an anonymous, carefully written note alerting them to this odor should be sent to them, saying that a problem “may” exist and providing them the opportunity to resolve the smell. My wife says absolutely not. Your thoughts? -- FELINE BLUES IN THE MIDWEST DEAR FELINE BLUES: If you lack the courage to sign your name, do not send the letter. It

isn’t unheard of that pet owners become so used to the odors in their homes that they no longer smell them. Either address the problem head on -- politely, of course -- or refuse further invitations and invite the couple out instead.

DEAR ABBY: My daughter was recently married. A close family member -- a cousin -gave her and our son-in-law a check at the reception. The check bounced.

It’s been more than a month since the check was returned to them, and I’m sure their bank charged them for the overdraft. I was waiting, hoping they would reach out to my daughter or me and send a replacement check.

Should I call my cousin directly? I feel deep down that he must not know this happened because he would have done something about it. -BOUNCED CHECK IN NEW JERSEY DEAR B.C.: If you “know” deep down that this may have escaped your cousin’s notice, call him, let him know what happened and let him explain.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Stephen King said, “Quiet people have the loudest minds.”

You’re feeling unusually introverted today, but this is something to embrace, not overcome.

All the good action is inside you.

For everything you want, there is a person out there who has it. This is wonderful. It proves what’s possible. Meeting such a person is an opportunity to learn what it takes to fulfill a particular appetite of yours.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

If you’re going to be someone’s anchor, you’d better prepare for it first. You’ll need a metaphorical wetsuit, some flippers and, of course, an oxygen tank. Other-

wise, the effort involves drowning.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Anyone can get lucky and do well under pressure once or twice.

But to continually exhibit grace under the weight of a relentless opposing force -- that’s how diamonds are made. You have that kind of stamina in you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Imagine that your problem is a destination, and then zoom in and out of it Google Earth-style.

This or some such perspectivebased whimsy could really break you out of a limiting mindset today.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your intuition will protect you much better than fear ever could. But can you discern between the two? Listen carefully to the tone of your internal voices, because these two sound totally different.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

When will you get there? Whether you gauge by minutes, steps or songs, the real question is: Which way will be the most fun

to measure the journey by?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You, hard to love? Ridiculous! Anyone who thinks so has a hard time loving, period.

You’re extremely easy to love, and those with normal-sized hearts will delight in you today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You know the type -- accidental expectation-raisers.

They’ll eat the last of the cereal and leave the empty box in the cupboard. Call them out. Otherwise, this will go on indefinitely.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

You can’t sing a duet by yourself, but it’s a thing to try. To hear both parts in your head and only be able to sing one is to appreciate what another person brings to the song.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You care. That it doesn’t matter to most other people won’t change this. So it’s a small detail; so it’s widely unnoticeable.

Bottom line: If it means something to you, it means something.

Biggersville, Alcorn Central reach ACT championship

BY KENT MOHUNDRO Sports Editor kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com

It was a record-setting day Saturday at the Crossroads Arena during the 68th annual Alcorn County Tournament.

In games that were moved from Friday to Saturday due to inclement weather: ■ the Corinth junior varsity boys rolled over Kossuth 6627; ■ the Alcorn Central varsity girls pulled away late 67-49 over Corinth; ■ and the Biggersville Lions completed an epic comeback against Kossuth in the boys varsity semifinals, rallying from a 14-point fourth quarter deficit to win 64-61 in overtime.

Malory Wigginton had a career day for the Lady Bears, ripping the nets for 40 points, which is believed to be an ACT record for an ACHS girls player.

Jonah Smith connected on eight three-pointers for Kossuth and totalled a game-high 35, but his Aggies fell in OT. And there will be no rematches of last year’s varsity championship games.

Here’s a recap of how each game played out:

JV Boys — Corinth 66, Kossuth 27 The junior varsity Warriors were clicking on all cylinders for most of the contest as they steamrolled the Aggies 66-27.

Just like their varsity counterparts, the Corinth JV used relentless pressure and caused numerous turnovers

by Kossuth that turned into points at the other end. The Aggies even committed several unforced errors after CHS had gotten into their heads and caused havoc.

“We always stress taking care of the ball and creating turnovers on defense,” said CHS coach Justin Parsons.

“I constantly tell them to not wait on the other teams offense, but get in their face and play at a fast pace. That’s what we did today.”

Wigginton goes crazy against Corinth Alcorn Central’s Malory Wigginton drives for two of her record-setting 40 points against Corinth in the Alcorn County Tournament semifinals Saturday afternoon at the Crossroads Arena. The Lady Bears won 67-49 and will face Kossuth in the girls championship game Monday evening.

Mississippi State cruises past LSU The Associated Press

BATON ROUGE, La. — Aric Holman scored 17 points and grabbed nine rebounds as Mississippi State defeated LSU 95-78 in a Southeastern Conference game Saturday.

Holman was one of five players in double figures for the Bulldogs (10-4, 1-1), who took the lead for good around the midway point of the first half. Lamar Peters finished with 15 points,

Quinndary Weatherspoon had 14, I.J. Ready 13 and Mario Kegler 11.

“That was a great performance by our team,” Mississippi State coach Ben Howland said. “We responded well after a disappointing loss at home against Alabama. Offensively, we were much better in making the extra pass. To score 95 points on 54 percent shooting was phenomenal.”

Mississippi State scored 11 straight points to go on top 30-20 with 6:42 remaining in the first half. Holman put the Bulldogs in front 2120 with a pair of foul shots.

Mississippi State built its advantage to 19 points, 5233, by halftime.

“We were more patient on offense,” Holman said.

“We realized we rushed a lot of shots in our last game (against Alabama). We

moved the ball better. I just played as hard as I could, I had been watching film and people were respecting my 3-point shot, so I worked on my driving game.”

LSU (9-5, 1-2) never reduced its deficit to fewer than 13 points in the second half. Duop Reath led the Tigers with 19 points and 13 rebounds. Antonio Blakeney Please see CRUISES | 9A

Fighting for a basket Corinth JV player Quenton Morrison fights off a Kossuth defender for two points in the Warriors’ 66-27 victory over the JV Aggies Saturday afternoon at the Alcorn County Tournament. CHS will face Alcorn Central in the boys JV championship game Monday afternoon.

ACT CONTINUED FROM 8A

Central for the JV boys title Monday afternoon.

Will Agnew led the Warrior JV with 12, while Quenton Morrison and Morgan Toomer finished with 10 apiece. Zack Patterson was just off double figures with nine.

Luke Evetts paced Kossuth with eight points and Tanner Marlar added six.

Varsity Girls — Alcorn Central 67, Corinth 49 Malory Wigginton was on fire the entire 32 minutes as she scored bucket after bucket off Lady Warrior turnovers and with simple drives to the basket in the Lady Bears 67-49 win.

She finally hit the 40-point mark with under a minute left in the game at the charity stripe, but had other opportunities prior to that.

“When Malory is focused and on her game, I don’t feel there’s anyone around here who can stop her,” said elated ACHS head coach Charlette Foster. “But all five starters on the floor at any given time today played together and played as a team.

“This is the first time this season that we have played a full four quarters with that kind of drive and focus,” she said.

The Lady Warriors kept things interesting for a while, cutting a 1610 second quarter Central advantage to just 16-15 on a putback by Kristen Herman.

But ACHS reeled off 10 straight points from there and claimed a comfortable 26-15 lead with less than two minutes to go before halftime.

Allison Greene drilled a three-pointer to end the 10-0 Central run but CHS would never get any closer the remainder of the contest.

The Lady Bears will face Kossuth in the girls varsity championship game on Monday.

Alexus Lainez was closest to Wigginton in the scoring column for ACHS with eight points.

Herman scored 12 to lead CHS, followed by Cheyenne Hendrix with seven and Greene with six.

Varsity Boys — Biggersville 64, Kossuth 61 (OT) The Lions are back in the championship round again as they

spoiled Jonah Smith’s big day, which included eight three-pointers, 64-61 in overtime.

It wasn’t the largest fourth quarter rally in an ACT game, but it was close.

The irony is that Biggersville did most of their fourth quarter damage without big guns Greg Robinson and Qua Davis, who both fouled out in the fourth quarter. Jordan Strickland fouled out in OT. The “man” for the Lions in the fourth quarter, when they erased a 43-29 Kossuth advantage, turned out to be junior guard Devonte Spears, who found the zone and nailed four fourth-quarter threepointers.

“I wanted the ball in my hands because Greg (Robinson) and Qua (Davis) were both out of the game,”said Spears.

“I knew I was in a zone, and I actually called the shots as they went in.”

Coach Cliff Little’s squad actually took a brief two-point lead before the Aggies hit a free throw at the end of regulation to tie the game and send it to an extra four minutes.

But the real reason BHS made the comeback can be credited to Little’s assistant coach Tracy Stafford.

Leave it to a Stafford to inspire a Biggersville rally.

“He’s all love,” Little said with a tear in his eye after the game. “When he does something like that he does it in a way that these kids respond to. If it hadn’t been for him being with me on this staff I might have been fired by now for saying the wrong thing.

“He (Stafford) means everything to me and this team. He’s the reason we won tonight,” Little said.

The game wasn’t over until Smith’s threepoint attempt from the top right wing fell short at the horn in OT. Biggersville will face Corinth Monday evening for the boys championship.

Spears finished the game with 18 points to lead the Lions, followed

by Robinson with 12 and Strickland with 11.

Mercer was the only other Kossuth player in double figures with 10, while TJ Essary was close with eight.

Ole Miss holds on to get 1st SEC win over Auburn The Associated Press

AUBURN, Ala. — Rasheed Brooks hit a straightaway 3-pointer with 39 seconds left, and Deandre Burnett went 4 for 4 from the foul line in the final 30 seconds to help Ole Miss outlast Auburn 88-85 on Saturday.

Terence Davis went 1 for 2 from the foul line to give Ole Miss (10-5, 1-2 SEC) its three-point lead with 12 seconds remaining. Auburn (10-5, 0-3) then took a timeout with 3.9 seconds left before inbounding to T.J.

Lang, whose 3-point attempt from the right wing glanced off the front of the rim as time soon expired.

Burnett had 18 points and eight assists, and Davis had 16 points.

Auburn’s Jared Harper scored 18 of his 24 points in the second half. Mustapha Heron added 20 points for the Tigers.

Auburn took a 41-33 lead into halftime, shooting 50 percent from the field to Ole Miss’ 42.9 percent and outrebounding the Rebels 19-13.

But Ole Miss began the

second half on an 11-3 run, with Davis’ 3-pointer with 16:42 left tying the score at 44.

Big Picture Ole Miss got its first SEC win while Auburn lost its third straight conference game.

Auburn outrebounded Ole Miss 36-26. It was just the second time this season that the Rebels, who lead the SEC in rebounding, were outrebounded by an opponent.

Up Next Auburn sets out on a

two-game road swing starting at Missouri on Tuesday. Mizzou lost to Georgia 71-66 on Saturday to extend its losing streak to six games.

Kevin Puryear averages 12.7 points for Missouri, which defeated Auburn 76-61 in Columbia last season.

Ole Miss comes home for a meeting with Georgia on Wednesday. Yante Maten averages 20.4 points and J.J. Frazier averages 16 for the Bulldogs, who last season split their season series with Ole Miss.

CRUISES CONTINUED FROM 8A

added 17 points and Skylar Mays 10.

“We have to make some corrections and identify those problems,” LSU coach Johnny Jones said.

“We have to do a much better job on the defensive end when we go through a stretch without scoring. Mississippi State got in their comfort zone and made plays.”

Big Picture Mississippi State: After scoring just 58 points in their SEC opener against Alabama, the Bulldogs finished with a seasonhigh 95 against LSU. Playing in its first true road game of the season, Mississippi State reached the 58-point mark less

than three minutes into the second half on a 3-pointer by Mario Kegler.

LSU: The Tigers continued to struggle on defense as they allowed at least 90 points for the third time in the past four games all losses. LSU had given up 110 points to Wake Forest and 96 to Vanderbilt. The Tigers permitted Mississippi State to make 50 percent of its 3-point shots (11-of-22).

Lineup Changes Mississippi State’s Howland made two lineup changes for Saturday’s game. He inserted Peters at point guard instead of Ready, who had missed practice the last couple of days with a knee injury, at point guard. He also

used two 6-foot-10 players — Schnider Herard and Holman— in the lineup for the first time. Peters scored 15 points and handed out five assists, while Herard had eight points and four rebounds.

Bounce-Back Game Reath had been held in check in LSU’s first two SEC games against Vanderbilt and Missouri with a total of 14 points and six rebounds. Reath rebounded with his third double-double of the season against Mississippi State. The 13 rebounds were one short of his season high, which came in the opener against Wofford.

its best offensive game of the season Saturday with 95 points. The Bulldogs had not scored that many points in a SEC game in 26 seasons.

Mississippi State defeated Tennessee 95-68 in Starkville in 1991. The last time the Bulldogs scored 95 points in a SEC road game took place 54 seasons ago. Mississippi State won at LSU 99-64 in 1963.

Up Next

Mississippi State: The Bulldogs will continue their two-game road swing with a game at Arkansas on Tuesday.

LSU: The Tigers, who have lost three of their four games, will Offensive Explosion last play at Texas A&M on Mississippi State had Wednesday.

Giants, Packers ready to meet in marquee wild-card matchup tance of postseason experience. “We’re pretty hot right now and usually the teams that are hottest and can stay healthy are the teams that are there at the end.”

The NFC North-champion Packers (10-6) roll into the playoffs on a six-game winning streak.

They haven’t lost since Rodgers said he thought that Green Bay could “run the table” after falling to 4-6.

In some ways, this season has a similar feel to the Packers’ wild-card run in 2010, when Green Bay also finished the regular season 10-6 and overcame a slew of injuries to win the Super Bowl.

Rodgers is leading the way again: 15 touchdown passes and no interceptions during the six-game winning streak.

A master at extending plays playing behind a good offensive line, Rodgers is giving receivers time to get open and delivering laser-like throws.

“I just see a guy that’s playing with an edge ... and he’s playing with a killer instinct,” first-year Giants head coach Ben McAdoo said.

Shooting for two Alcorn Central’s Brianna Barnes flies in for a bucket against Corinth in the Lady Bears’ 67-49 victory at the Alcorn County Tournament Saturday inside the Crossroads Arena.

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Aaron Rodgers won’t be the only quarterback in Green Bay this weekend who knows how to “run the table.”

Eli Manning has gone streaking, too, for the New York Giants. In fact, Super Bowl runs in the 2007 and 2011 seasons took the Giants through Lambeau Field each time.

Two of the league’s marquee franchises meet again in Titletown when the Packers host the Giants in an NFC wild-card game today.

“We just know what it takes to win, and obviously the feeling of being on the other side of that, which we’ve had,” Rodgers said about the impor-

McAdoo should know.

He was an offensive assistant under Packers coach Mike McCarthy from 2006-13 before a twoyear stint as Giants offensive coordinator. McAdoo has seen up close what Manning and the Giants (11-5) can do at Lambeau.

The Giants beat the Packers 23-20 in overtime in the NFC title game on Jan. 20, 2008.

They won 37-20 on Jan. 15, 2012 in the divisional round, defeating a heavily favored Packers team that finished 15-1 in the regular season.

That year was the last time the Giants were in the postseason. Their four-year playoff drought is over after relying on the stingiest defense in the NFC (17.8 points per game) and the playmaking ability of receiver Odell Beckham Jr. “Feels good to win games during the regular season, and to be in this position,” said Manning, who turned 36 on Tuesday. “You definitely want to take advantage of it. You don’t know if you get more shots. You know how hard it is after these last years, how hard it is

to get here.”

Some notes and other things to watch in today’s game: COVERING BECKHAM — Beckham had just five catches for 56 yards and a touchdown when the teams met in the regular season in Week 5, a 2316 victory for Green Bay. The Packers’ secondary was battered by injuries then, just like it is now.

Quinten Rollins (neck/ concussion) will miss the game Sunday, while Damarious Randall is questionable with a knee injury. But second-year player LaDarius Gunter, who helped contain Beckham back in October, remains healthy. Gunter has become the most consistent cornerback for the Packers, who have also been without veteran Sam Shields (concussion) since the season opener.

CORNER CONCERN — Randall was a full participant in practice at midweek. If he can’t go, the Packers might have to rely on undrafted rookies Josh Hawkins and the newly activated Herb Waters — a former receiver — to help Gunter at cornerback. Safety/slot cornerback Micah Hyde may also get more work outside. Regardless, the secondary will get tested

by Beckham and fellow receivers Sterling Shepard and Victor Cruz.

THE NEW NYPD — The Giants’ secondary has proudly taken on a new nickname — “NYPD,” or “New York Pass Defense.”

The NFL’s best unit in the red zone (39.5 percent) features three cornerbacks in Janoris Jenkins, Dominique RodgersCromartie and Eli Apple who can match up with the Packers’ potent receiving corps.

Linde Kemp and Taylor Coombs share a moment.

Book shares fun of science, educates them about various critters

BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER The Bookworm Sez

“Things That Make You Go Yuck! Crooked Critters” by Jenn Dlugos & Charlie Hatton c.2015, Prufrock Press $7.95 / $10.95 Canada 112 pages The world is a very nice place.

Well, mostly, anyhow.

Yes, there are flowers and sunshine and blue skies, clouds, seasons, trees, and nice people. But in the new book “Things That Make You Go Yuck!

Crooked Critters” by Jenn Dlugos & Charlie Hatton, there are also some notvery-“nice” creatures on Earth.

Ever since you were

small, you’ve known that lying, stealing, and bullying were wrong. Your parents and grandparents probably taught you that, which explains why some animals lie, steal, and bully: those animals obviously weren’t raised properly.

Just kidding; they “make you go Yuck!” because of their drive to survive.

Take, for example, a certain species of tapeworm.

It “has a complicated lifestyle” that includes getting inside a fish’s body and controlling its behavior. That’s not good for the fish, but there’s nothing it can do because the fish must get eaten by a bird so the worm spe-

cies can survive.

And then there’s the bedbug, which definitely should make you say “Yuck!” All it takes is one pregnant bedbug and you’ve got major problems. “They spread like

wildfire,” say the authors, they leave itchy bites overnight, and they’re hard to eradicate. Get bedbugs, and there’s no “sleep tight” for you.

Or, get this: the tongueeating louse, which is really a crustacean, sneaks inside a fish’s mouth and cuts off the fish’s tongue’s blood supply. Then the louse takes up residence where the fish’s tongue used to be and works as a “replacement tongue” in order to steal food from the fish. Yuck!

Skuas are birds that fake injury to lure predators away from their nests. Howler monkeys are not good neighbors: their yells can be heard up to three miles away. You don’t want to eat squirt-

ing cucumbers. You don’t want to be around when a shrimp snaps its claws shut. You shouldn’t ask for an Amazon rainforest centipede as a pet. You don’t want to live with a Huntsman Spider out back. And you absolutely want to run, run, run fast when faced with a tarantula hawk wasp or a bullet ant...

Give “Things That Make You Go Yuck! Crooked Critters” to your child, and will she do what the title says? Probably yes, as well as “Eeeeeuuuwww” and “Gross!” because that’s the kind of book this is.

And yet, the squirms here are not gratuitous; authors Jenn Dlugos & Charlie Hatton present

real science in a way that will intrigue a kid. The information is given in a way children can understand and scientific names of the creatures are phonetically spelled out, but the material is still challenging. Dlugos and Hatton write with the kind of enthusiasm for their subjects that will easily get kids excited, too, and there are lots of full-color pictures to get the ball rolling.

This book is one of four in a series, each perfect for 9-to-13-year-olds who love science. Or, if you’ve got a middle-schooler who needs a nudge toward the laboratory, “Things That Make You Go Yuck! Crooked Critters” is a nice start.

Washington adapts ‘Fences’ to film Associated Press

Leah Houston and Venny Vera

Houston—Vera Miss Leah Houston and Mr. Venny Vera will exchange vows at 6 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 13, 2017, at Franklin Courtyard in Corinth.

The bride-elect is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jay Houston.

She is the granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Geary Caldwell of Booneville, the late Lee Richardson of Corinth, Brenda Houston of Ashland, the late Jerry Houston, of Ashland, and Carolyn Houston of Walnut.

The prospective groom is the son of Celia McLeod of Petal and the late Freddy Vera of Venezuela. He is the grandson of Julio Villavicencio, the late Rosa Mejias, and the late German and Marina Vera, all of Venezuela.

The bride-elect is a 2009 graduate of Corinth High School.

She received her Associates degree from NEMCC and is a graduate of Booneville School of Cosmetology in 2014.

She is presently employed as Property Manager at Vie in Hattiesburg.

The prospective groom is a 2008 graduate of Greene County High School and a 2013 graduate of the University of Southern Mississippi where he earned degrees in Foreign Languages and Business Management.

He is presently employed at Berkshire Hathaway Home Services as a Real Estate Agent in Hattiesburg.

All friends and relatives of the couple are invited to attend the ceremony and the reception which follows.

After the honeymoon cruise to Cozumel, Belize and Roatan they will reside in Hattiesburg.

NEW YORK — When August Wilson’s widow first toured the set for the new movie based on his play “Fences,” she carefully examined the modest two-story brick house, the small yard and the tree where a ball hung from a rope — and she wept.

Constanza Romero, who lost her playwright husband in 2005, has visited many theatrical sets for Wilson’s most popular and perhaps most personal play, but the one used for its first film adaptation reconnected her with him.

“It was like, ‘Oh, my gosh. I’m inside August Wilson’s world. This is August Wilson’s world complete,’” Romero recalled. “It was just such a feeling that August’s words had become three-dimensional.”

Romero found herself in tears, trying to catch her breath, when she glanced at Denzel Washington, the film’s director and star. “Oh, I understand,” he told her. “I understand those tears.”

The tears were as much out of relief as gratitude.

Adapting Wilson’s masterpiece has taken more than 30 years and it’s easy to see why: It’s a twohour, dialogue-heavy story rooted in a front yard in Pittsburgh’s Hill District.

Washington, who won a Tony for his performance in the Broadway revival of “Fences” seven years ago, made some key decisions when he was first tapped to translate the play onto 35 mm film.

First, he reunited five of the main actors from the Broadway revival — himself, Viola Davis, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Russell

Hornsby and Mykelti Williamson. Then he added up-and-comers Jovan Adepo and Saniyya Sidney.

Then he put them in an actual front yard in Pittsburgh’s Hill District.

There would be no Hollywood sound stages this time. Just a worn, small home with plastic-covered furniture in the neighborhood where Wilson grew up.

“Once it was clear we were all getting that savme band back together, with a couple of new hot players and a little different arrangement — and doing it in Pittsburgh — then I knew that there was no way it wasn’t destined to at least be respectful,” said Henderson, who’s performed a number of Wilson’s plays.

It seems to have worked.

Since opening wide on Christmas, the Paramount release has made $32.4 million, making it one of the more lucrative stage-to-screen adaptations in recent years.

“Fences,” set in 1957, tells the story of Troy Maxson, a larger-thanlife garbage man whose dashed dream of baseball glory in a white world of pro ball has given him a rigid, embittered sense of responsibility that has a profound effect on his wife, Rose, and his sons.

Washington, who plays Maxson, had to tread carefully, respecting the play — and it’s stifling, claustrophobic quality — but also making it cinematic.

He added short scenes like kids playing stickball in the street, a time-lapse montage and a few forays away from the home that are referenced in the text.

Henderson said he welcomed the shift from stage to screen, saying he was liberated from the need to project his voice to the last seats in a theater: “You’re freed to live the text rather than perform it.”

“Fences” is only the second time one of Wilson’s works has been adapted for the screen. The other time was an edited ver-

Cryptoquip

Crossword

sion of “The Piano Lesson” that aired in 2002 on the Hallmark channel.

This version of “Fences” took no scalpel to the text.

“It is in the right hands,” Henderson said. On why the play took so long to be adapted, he was philosophical: “If it had been done earlier, it might not have been done properly.”

More adaptations are on their way. Washington will produce an additional nine Wilson’s plays for HBO. Henderson, a socalled “Wilsonian soldier,” hopes he might snag a role in a few. “I’d serve if called upon,” he said, laughing.

“I’d definitely serve.” (In addition, a live “Jitney” is opening on Broadway on Jan. 19.)

The irony is that Wilson himself wasn’t really a huge movie fan. “He was a language man,” said Romero. “I made him watch a lot of things with me and he enjoyed a lot of films. But if I wasn’t with him, I think that he would not — out of his own choice — go see a film.”
