Bain to serve on lottery study committee BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
Local legislator Nick Bain has been tapped to serve on a new committee to study the possible creation of a Mississippi lottery. The committee, created by Republican Speaker of the House Philip Gunn, features nine members from across the state, including Bain, a Democratic Al-
corn County House member. “I’m honored to be asked by the speaker to participate in this panel,” said Bain, who shares Gunn’s opposition to the lottery. “No matter how I personally feel, I will look at this objectively.” Gunn said in late March that he would form a group to study the pros and cons of starting a state lottery. The
Calling on God
group met for the first time Wednesday. “I have been clear that I do not support a lottery,” said Gunn. “I have not changed my mind. I do not believe a lottery is based on sound economic policy, and it violates a number of conservative, Republican principles.” Please see COMMITTEE | 3A

Local physician Dr. Leonard Pratt prayed over the church during the National Day of Prayer local event on Thursday at the Waldron Street Christian Church.
Residents gather for National Day of Prayer BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
In His name, they prayed. Seven citizens from different walks of life removed their personal walls and stood before a crowded church on Thursday to pray as part of the National Day of Prayer. “We are called by different denominational names, but we all share Your name – we are one in Christ,” prayed local
physician Leonard Pratt. More than 100 people took part in the 66th annual event focused on mobilizing prayer in America and encouraging personal repentance and righteousness in the culture. The local prayer day was moved inside the Waldron Street Christian Church after rain showers forced the event from its normal venue on the foot steps of the Alcorn County Courthouse.
Corinth lawmaker Nick Bain offered prayer over federal, state and local government officials and law enforcement. “We praise Your name as the One Who holds all governments in Your Hand,” he said in prayer. Later Bain said he believed observing the National Day of Prayer is important for everyPlease see PRAYER | 2A

Pet adoption day scheduled Saturday
Today in History
BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
Local animal shelter volunteers are hoping to find fur-ever homes this weekend for some of their four-legged friends. In celebration of National Pet Adoption Weekend, the CorinthAlcorn Animal Shelter will team up with Magnolia Regional Health Center for Petsense’s annual Adoptathon. Set for Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the shelter will offer discounted prices on all adoptable pets. Petsense is located at 1663 Virginia Lane in the Corinth Commons shopping center. “We will have lots of ready to adopt puppies, kittens, dogs and cats,” said Charlotte Doehner, shelter volunteer director. “Of course every adoption includes spaying/neutering and current vaccinations.” Gator, a six-week-old black Terrier-mix, is one of the many puppies who will be on site Saturday searching for his soulmate. “Gator’s story is a very sad one,” said Doehner. “We found him inside a trash bag, hanging on our front gate about a week ago. He was very lucky to still be alive, but after a few days of rest he’s back healthy and ready to be loved.” Doehner said its hard to believe people would leave animals in such conditions. “It happens all the time, though,” she said. “We find cats and dogs barely alive and in the worst situations. Some people just don’t care how they treat
Today is Friday, May 5, the 125th day of 2017. There are 240 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History On May 5, 1862, Mexican troops defeated French occupying forces in the Battle of Puebla.
On this date In 1892, Congress passed the Geary Act, which required Chinese in the United States to carry a certificate of residence at all times, or face deportation. In 1927, “To the Lighthouse,” Virginia Woolf’s fifth novel, was published in London. In 1942, wartime sugar rationing began in the United States. In 1945, in the only fatal attack of its kind during World War II, a Japanese balloon bomb exploded on Gearhart Mountain in Oregon, killing the pregnant wife of a minister and five children. Denmark and the Netherlands were liberated as a German surrender went into effect. In 1955, West Germany became a fully sovereign state. The baseball musical “Damn Yankees” opened on Broadway. In 1961, astronaut Alan B. Shepard Jr. became America’s first space traveler as he made a 15-minute suborbital flight aboard Mercury capsule Freedom 7. In 1973, Secretariat won the Kentucky Derby, the first of his Triple Crown victories. In 1981, Irish Republican Army hunger-striker Bobby Sands died at the Maze Prison in Northern Ireland in his 66th day without food. In 1987, the congressional Iran-Contra hearings opened with former Air Force Maj. Gen. Richard V. Secord the leadoff witness. In 1994, Singapore caned American teenager Michael Fay for vandalism, a day after the sentence was reduced from six lashes to four in response to an appeal by President Bill Clinton. Ten years ago: A Kenya Airways jet crashed in southern Cameroon, killing all 114 people on board.

Puppies will be available for $60, kittens $20, dogs $25 and cats $15. Every pet parent that adopts on Saturday will receive a goodie bag filled with pet supplies, food and savings from Petsense. Doehner said a $25 discount coupon will also be given to anyone who doesn’t find their perfect pet that day. “Folks can take the coupon to the shelter any time in May and receive the discount on a adop-
tion,” she said. The shelter will also receive volunteer help from MRHC employees. The local hospital choose the animal shelter as their 2017 charity earlier this year. “The hospital produced special animal shelter T-shirts that will be available for $20,” said the director. “So far, sales from the shirts have raised more than $2,000 for the shelter.” Doehner said the shelter will also accept any donation on Saturday. Needed items include Pu-

He said the purpose of the study group is to gather information to show that the lottery is not the windfall that all its supporters claim it will be. “I have not had anyone who has voiced support for the lottery provide me with any documentation showing why or how it is a good thing,” added Gunn. “At the very least, I hope the findings from this group will provide us with information upon which we can make an informed, reasoned decision.” Committee members were charged with examining a series of questions as they relate to a lottery like background issues, operational issues, social issues and economic issues. In addition to Bain, other members of committee include representatives from the Mississippi Gaming Commission, the House gaming chairman, House members from counties with casinos and even a mayor. One of the most persistent lottery proponents in the House, Democratic Rep. Alyce Clarke of Jackson, was not appointed to the study group. Bain said he believes one reason he was chosen to be a panel member was because of Alcorn County’s proximity to Tennes-

see, where some locals travel to purchase lottery tickets. He also said, “The speaker knows my position, but also knows that I will ask the best questions and find out what is in the state’s best interest.” Mississippi is one of only six states without a lottery. Some legislators have tried for years to start a lottery in the state, but those proposals have faltered amid opposition from conservative religious groups and, to a lesser extent, from casino interests. Republican Gov. Phil Bryant said in his State of the State speech in January that Mississippi should consider starting a lottery because the state is losing money as residents drive to neighboring states to buy tickets. Bryant is calling lawmakers back to the Capitol for a special session starting June 5 so they can set budgets for the Department of Transportation and the attorney general’s office for the year that begins July 1. He has not released a full agenda for the special session and has not said whether he will include consideration of a lottery.

Corinth, Miss.
Trump takes on Schumer on tax reform I’m for making things better for everyone. And the main focus of my work is improving the lives of low-income Americans. So why do I love the tax reform package that President Trump has proposed? Star Shouldn’t my sympathies be Parker with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, who says Columnist these tax cuts “makes life easier for the wealthy and special interests” and “harder for middle class and lower income Americans”? The answer is, I have been watching liberals for 25 years claim they are “for the poor” and then enact policies that hurt them. Liberals think that you help Peter by taking from Paul. I think you help both Peter and Paul by creating the best possible conditions for opportunity for both of them. How do you create the best possible conditions? Freedom. Tons of data and studies show that countries that have the most economic freedom -- good laws that protects life and property, low taxes, nonintrusive regulation, limited government -- are the most prosperous. And even the poorest in these countries are far better off than the poorest in countries without economic freedom. You don’t need a Ph.D. in economics to understand that a country that punishes success is going to be less wealthy than a country that rewards it. The last eight years under liberal control have been a disaster economically. From 1950 until 2000, on average the U.S. economy grew at 3.5 percent per year. Since 2008, it has grown barely 2 percent per year. What does this mean? Hoover Institution economist John Cochrane points out that average American income, adjusted for inflation, grew from $16,000 in 1952 to $50,000 in 2008. If the economy over this period grew at 2 percent instead of 3.5 percent, average income in 2008 would have been $23,000 instead of $50,000. Why the great economic slowdown after 2008? No, not because there was a recession when President Obama took over. Generally, economic recoveries have faster than usual growth, not slower. The great slowdown was because of the explosion of government, thanks to liberals. Explosion of spending, of debt, of regulations, of taxation. Economies, like people, thrive when they can breathe, not when they are being strangled. Why are liberals so uncomfortable with freedom? Why do they think the world needs them to control everybody’s lives? Maybe they’re just really confused? Maybe they love the power they get? Maybe, because most liberals don’t accept traditional religious values, they think that they are the Creator of the Universe? According to the Tax Foundation, the United States has the third-highest corporate tax rate out of 173 nations. Trump wants to cut the U.S. corporate tax from 35 percent to 15 percent. The result is simple. More business will come back to the U.S. and fewer will go abroad. More jobs here. Isn’t that the idea? I’d like to see a business tax rate of zero in low-income urban areas. In 2013, Obama did what liberals claim needs to be done. Tax the rich. Taxes were raised on the highest-income earners and another new tax was levied on investment income of the highest income earners. This was supposed to bring in $650 billion over 10 years in tax revenue. Instead, because of slower economic growth, estimates are, according to former Senator Phil Gramm, that revenues will be five times lower than this. Does Schumer really want to help the poor do better under freedom? I invite him to stop sending federal money to Planned Parenthood and to start talking about the importance of family and traditional values that the welfare state has wiped out in inner cities. The Trump plan to cut business and personal taxes is great for Americans of all backgrounds. Star Parker is an author and president of CURE, Center for Urban Renewal and Education.

Prayer for today Almighty God, I bless thee for the privilege of a great life. May I not be satisfied to rest with idle hands in youth and make age regretful because I have lived a useless life: but with a clear eye and an exalted mind may I choose the “durable satisfactions” that may be mine. Amen.

Trump to make impact on lower courts STARKVILLE — Despite substantial missteps and self-inflicted political wounds on any number of fronts, President Donald Trump’s administration has been impressive in moving quickly to fill the U.S. Supreme Court vacancy created by the death of the late Presiding Justice Antonin Scalia. Although it took the exercise of the so-called “nuclear option” on the part of the Republican majority in the U.S. Senate, Trump was remarkably successful in getting his nominee Neil Gorsuch confirmed and sworn as Scalia’s successor. Clearly, the Gorsuch nomination was the hallmark of Trump’s first 100 days in office. While Trump could well fill another four seats given the ages of Justices Ruth Bader Gindsberg (84), Anthony Kennedy (80), and Stephen Breyer (78), it is in the lower federal courts where the new president is expected to make a more immediate impact. In recent weeks, I outlined that longtime 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Judge E. Grady Jolly had notified President Trump of his intent to take senior status
on the federal bench on Jolly’s 80th birthday in October — giving Trump his Sid Salter first judicial appointColumnist ment in Mississippi. Jolly has served a 35-year federal judicial career since succeeding the late Judge J.P. Coleman on the 5th Circuit bench in 1982. Jolly’s decision to step down sets in motion the same sort of judicial patronage process that was in place in 1981 when Jolly was first approached about the judgeship by U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran after Coleman announced his retirement decision on Jan. 29, 1981. The law doesn’t necessarily guarantee that a Mississippian will be nominated to succeed Jolly. The law regulating the federal circuit courts – the Judicial Improvements Act of 1990 – states the number of seats authorized to each of the 13 circuits (including the D.C. Circuit and the Federal Circuit). But it’s rare in the extreme to see seats on the federal district courts “move” from
one state to another simply because of the political unrest such actions generate for the nominating presidents and the bare-knuckle Senate fights such attempts engender. It just rarely happens –and when one of the senators in question is chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, the chance for surprises become even rarer. Mississippians Grady Jolly, Rhesa Barksdale, Leslie Southwick, and James Graves currently hold seats on the 5th Circuit. The New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is comprised of Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. Not only is Jolly’s Mississippi seat coming vacant, but there are also two 5th Circuit Court of Appeals vacancies in Texas and one in Louisiana. The “old” 5th Circuit once also included Alabama, Florida and Georgia and was split in the 1980s into two circuits, the “new” 5th and the 11th Circuit. The “old” 5th Circuit in the civil rights era was considered an extremely liberal court, but the current “new” 5th Circuit is one of the nation’s most conservative federal circuit courts.
The Texas judicial nomination fight will pit Republican Texas U.S. Sens. Ted Cruz and John Cornyn in battle over senatorial influence with both of them holding seats on the Senate Judiciary Committee. The Louisiana vacancy will certainly draw the attention of Republican Louisiana U.S. Sen. John Kennedy as he also holds a seat on the Senate Judiciary Committee. The Constitution gives the U.S. Senate “advice and consent” over the judicial nominations of the president. But there is also the procedural custom of senatorial courtesy, whereby senators from the sitting president’s party strongly recommend a nomination or kill it by objecting to it. While not constitutionally mandated, that custom is usually enforced by the senators through their absolute control of the confirmation process. To be sure, Cruz, Cornyn, Cochran, and Kennedy are all counting on that “advice and consent” custom being honored by the Trump administration – and that applied to the lower federal courts as well.

A study published last September in Econ Journal Watch, “Faculty Voter Registration in Economics, History, Journalism, Law, and Psychology,” documents the overwhelming left-wing nature of the voter registration of college profs at 40 leading universities. An examination of voter registration in five departments found that Democrats outnumber Republicans by 11 1/2-to-1. Even in economics, where one would think that views would be driven by data, not politics, Democrats outnumbered Republicans 4 1/2-to-1. History was practically foreign terrain for Republicans, as Democrats outnumbered them 33 1/2to-1. And it’s getting worse. A 1968 study put the Democrat-to-Republican ratio in history departments at 2.7-to-1. This latest study found that among profs 65 and older, Democrats out-

number Republicans by 10 to 1. But for scholars under the age of 36 the ratio is 22.7Larry to-1. Elder In 2012 the CaliColumnist fornia Association of Scholars published the results of a two-year study about the bias of professors in the University of California system. The study claims that professors’ bias “corrupts” education, turning schools into indoctrination camps. According to the National Association of Scholars: “The report documented curricula that promote political activism, in violation of UC regulations. For example, one course aims to be a ‘training ground’ for ‘advocates committed to racial justice theory and practice.’” The CAS report also cited earlier studies that found that associate and assistant professors, those waiting in the wings, are ever more likely to be registered as Democrats. Among UC Berkeley’s associates and assistants, said the report, registered Democrats outnumber
registered Republicans by 49-to-1 in all departments -- including sciences. What about commencement speakers? Of the political speakers, left-wingers dramatically outnumber conservatives. The student political advocacy group Campus Reform looked at last year’s commencement speakers for the top 100 colleges and universities from U.S. News & World Report’s annual ranking of best colleges. Of the then-announced speakers associated with political messages, 40 were liberal and 10 conservative, a ratio of 4-to-1 in favor of Democrats. The question is whether left-wing professors create left-wing students. To say there is no effect is to say teachers don’t matter. Consider this. In an attempt to quantify the effect of media bias, UCLA economics and political science professor Tim Groseclose writes: “(The) average voter received approximately 8.2 percent of his news from Fox, and 79.9 percent from establishment media (defined as all outlets except Fox, the internet and talk radio). Thus, the ‘reach’ of establishment media is ap-

proximately 10 times that of Fox News.” He says in presidential elections, liberal media bias gives Dems an advantage of eight to 10 points. Were the media truly fair and balanced, concludes Groseclose, the average state would vote the way Texas does. Is it not reasonable to assume that professors have at least some measure of influence on their students? Have many professors crossed the line from education to indoctrination? Will opposing views be tolerated and respected? Does a student run a risk of facing grade retaliation by a Trump-hating polisci professor? Campus activists have long complained about “microaggressions,” for which they demand “safe spaces.” Is there any place where a left-wing student can feel safer than a college campus, where conservatives are not just unwanted but cannot even speak?

Greg Cooley, Corinth Greg Cooley’s journey to fitness began at an early age….junior high school. He wanted to stay in shape for basketball. Little did he know at that young age that fitness would become such a large part of his adult life. Yes, heart disease did run in his family…. as did diabetes…. so he knew that the small steps he began as a middle schooler would help carry him through a healthier adulthood. As he says, he ‘wanted to stay ahead of his DNA’….. which he has certainly done!
Cooley ran his first Coke 10k more than 30 years ago, in 1986. He has been involved with Coke 10k most every year since, whether that means by running it, serving as a race official, broadcasting it via radio or helping bring happiness and excitement to finishers as they pass his Announcer’s Stand at the end of the race. His dedication to running has resulted in runners seeking him out as a mentor/leader. He leads them in timed workouts on the track as well as long distance sessions on the roads.

WASHINGTON — Delivering at last, triumphant House Republicans voted Thursday to repeal and replace the “Obamacare” health plan they have reviled for so long, overcoming united Democratic opposition and their own deep divisions to hand a major win to President Donald Trump. The 217-213 vote was a narrow victory, and ultimate success is far from assured since the measure must still make its way through a highly skeptical Senate. But after seven years of campaign promises and dozens of show votes, Republicans finally succeeded in passing a health care bill that has a chance of becoming law. They weren’t waiting for final passage to celebrate. “What a great group of people!” Trump exclaimed at the White House, arms raised to salute the dozens of lawmakers who hurried to join him in the Rose Garden immediately after the vote. Set aside for the moment were the feuds and philosophical divides that nearly sank the bill time and again. And at the same time, the Republicans had begun to show that perhaps they can come together and govern the country now that they control Washington in full. “Make no mistake, this is a repeal and a replace of Obamacare, make no mistake about it,” Trump declared. “Premiums will be coming down, deduct-

WHY GOD APPLIES THE BLOOD In our last column we showed by scripture that we, as sinners, cannot be justified or “declared righteous” apart from the blood of Jesus Christ (Rom. 5:8-9). He was and is the “Lamb of God” who takes away the sin (John 1:29) by offering Himself without spot to cleanse or purge man “from dead works to serve the living God” (Heb. 9:14). This much is practically without dispute among all who call themselves Christians. However, as to the question of when the Father applies the blood of His Son to wash away man’s sins, there is much dispute. Is it (1) at the very moment we come to faith, (2) at the moment we confess our faith, (3) at the moment we repent of our sins, or (4) at the moment we are baptized? The answer to such questions is not up to me, not up to you, not up to the preacher, not up to the church, but up to “Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood” (Rev. 1:5). We should realize, first, that any thoughts, words, or actions God requires of us are “Works of righteousness” (Acts 10:35), not works of merit. No where in scripture is any one of the four thoughts, words, or actions listed above said to be any more of a “work” than the others. Confession (Rom. 10:10) is no more a “Work” than repentance (II Cor. 7:10). Baptism (Acts 22:16) is no more a “work” than faith (John 6:29). All are thoughts, words, or actions God requires of us for justification! So, at what point in our walk of faith does the Father apply the blood of Christ to cleanse our consciences and purge us from the inside out? At what point does man “answer” or “appeal” (ESV) to God for this cleansing? Though several verses answer this, please read I Peter 3:21 to see for yourself. We reiterate--by no “work”, before or after our justification, can we merit salvation. There is no faith so strong, no confession so bold, no repentance so sorrowful, and no baptism so proper and heartfelt, that it can change God’s gift of salvation into a wage (Rom. 6:23). Still, God promises “glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good” (Rom. 2:10), and we are to “walk worthy of our vocation” (Eph. 4:1). This brings us to the subject of sanctification, which we will discuss in our next column. Come study and worship with us. --Duane Ellis

President Donald Trump ibles will be coming down, but very importantly it’s a great plan.” Democrats countered that the GOP bill would have the opposite effect from what Trump predicted, pointing to estimates it will kick millions off the insurance roles while imperiling coverage for people with pre-existing conditions who had gained protections under Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act. They also forecast that Republicans will pay a steep political price for passing legislation that’s polled poorly and takes concrete benefits away while offering only promises of more choices and lower costs. “You will glow in the dark on this one,” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi dramatically warned, predicting Republicans will be radioactive with voters in the 2018 midterm elections. Indeed Democrats seemed practically giddy as the vote closed on the House floor, jeering at Republicans with chants of “nah, nah, nah, nah, hey, hey, goodbye” — an echo of how protesters serenaded Democrats seven years ago when

“Make no mistake, this is a repeal and a replace of Obamacare, make no mistake about it. Premiums will be coming down, deductibles will be coming down, but very importantly it’s a great plan.”
JACKSON — Mississippi officials are rolling out new ideas for pay for roads and bridges. Republican Gov. Phil Bryant says a lottery is one possibility, while House leaders are proposing a local fuel tax, subject to approval by voters in cities or counties. Mississippi is one of six states without a lottery, and Bryant said Thursday that he might ask legislators to consider creating one during a special session next month — but only if the state chamber of commerce supports using proceeds from the game to help pay for highways and bridges. Improving transportation has been a big issue for the Mississippi Economic Council, but the group hasn’t taken a public position about a lottery. “I know they’ve discussed it but there’s been no final decision as to whether or not they would come forward as a state chamber and say, ‘We would support a state lottery for the purposes of infrastructure,’” Bryant, a Republican, told reporters at the Capi-
tol. “I think that would be very helpful and would help make a decision as to whether or not it would be part of a session.” MEC’s new interim president and CEO, Scott Waller, confirmed in a separate interview that the group is seeking an independent evaluation of the economic impact of a lottery and how much money it might generate. Waller said that as of Thursday, “We don’t have the information we need to make an informed decision on this.” Bryant asked legislators to consider creating a lottery the regular session that ended in late March, but not as a specified source of transportation funding. He said he has asked state economist Darrin Webb to evaluate the issue. House Speaker Philip Gunn, a Republican and local Baptist church leader from Clinton, opposes a lottery but created a group to study it. Legislators begin a special session June 5 to finish the state budget for the year that begins July 1. Some legislators hope to also consider a multi-year transportation funding plan.

they passed Obama’s bill. The GOP health bill would eliminate the fines Obama’s law imposed on people who don’t buy coverage, and erase tax increases in the Affordable Care Act on higher-earning people and the health industry. It would cut the Medicaid program for lowincome people and let states impose work requirements on Medicaid recipients. It would transform Obama’s subsidies for millions buying insurance, now based largely on their incomes, making the funding skimpier and tying it to consumers’ ages. And states could get federal waivers freeing insurers from other Obama coverage requirements. With waivers, insurers could charge people with pre-existing illnesses far higher rates than healthy customers, boost prices for older people to whatever they wish, and ignore a mandate that they cover specified services like pregnancy care. The bill would block federal payments to Planned Parenthood for a year, considered a triumph by many anti-abortion Republicans.
Family with 2 toddlers booted from Delta flight BY DAVID KOENIG AND CHRISTOPHER WEBER Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Delta Air Lines is offering refunds and compensation to a California family that says they were forced off a plane and threatened with jail after refusing to give up one of their seats on a crowded flight. A video of the April 23 incident was uploaded to YouTube on Wednesday and added to the list of recent encounters on airlines that have gone viral, including the dragging of a bloodied passenger off a United Express plane. Brian and Brittany Schear of Huntington Beach, California, told KABC-TV in Los Angeles that they were returning from Hawaii with their two toddlers. They wanted to put one of the children in a seat they had bought for their 18-yearold son, who instead flew home on an earlier flight. Delta says on its website that tickets cannot be transferred and name changes are not allowed. Federal regulations do not bar changing the name on a ticket as long as the new passenger’s name can be run through a data base before the flight, according to a Transportation Security Administration spokesman. By late Thursday afternoon, Delta still had not explained why the Schears were removed from the plane. A spokesman said the flight was not overbooked. On the video, Brian Schear can be heard talking with a person offcamera — it is not clear whether that person is a Delta employee, a security officer, or somebody else.

Calorie counts on menus come slowly NEW YORK — Calorie counts are popping up on some restaurant menus and for prepared foods at supermarkets, whether you want to see them or not. A federal regulation requiring food sellers to post the nutrition numbers by Friday was postponed again this week until next year. That followed years of delays amid opposition from pizza chains, convenience stores and grocers, where people still may not see the counts. Many chains like Kroger that had been scrambling to comply say they don’t plan to change course at this point. New York City and some other places already require restaurant chains to post calorie counts, but the federal rule would make them more widely available.
Ringling’s final circus to be on Facebook ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus began in the 19th century. But it will broadcast its final show on the most 21st century of channels: Facebook Live. The company told The Associated Press this week that the final performance of the “greatest show on earth” on May 21 will be streamed live on the social media network and on the circus website. Feld Entertainment owns the iconic circus. Earlier this year, the company announced that it was closing up its circus tent for good in May. The circus’s decline happened due to a variety of factors. Declining attendance, combined with high operating costs, changing public tastes and prolonged battles with animal rights groups all contributed to its demise.
Storm trooper causes alarm at school ASHWAUBENON, Wis. — A student dressed as a storm trooper for “Star Wars Day” prompted the evacuation of a Wisconsin
high school when a frightened parent saw the costumed figure entering the facility and called 911. Police in Ashwaubenon near Green Bay say the parent saw the student going through a back door Thursday wearing body armor and a mask, and carrying a bag. Police Capt. Jody Crocker says the parent did the right thing given the suspicious situation, and that any perceived threat — real or otherwise — can’t be taken lightly. School officials say they will re-emphasize the district’s no-costume policy. Fans have adopted May 4 as “Star Wars Day” because “May the fourth” is a play on the oft-repeated Star Wars phrase, “May the force be with you.”
Opioid combo is latest mixing trend COLUMBUS, Ohio — Authorities are issuing warnings about a new and dangerous opioid combo they’re dubbing “gray death” that underscores the ever-changing nature of the U.S. addictions epidemic. Investigators say they’ve detected the mixture or recorded overdoses blamed on it in Alabama, Georgia and Ohio. The drug looks like concrete mix and varies in consistency from a hard, chunky material to a fine powder. The substance is a combination of several opioids, including heroin, fentanyl, carfentanil — sometimes used to tranquilize large animals like elephants — and a synthetic opioid called U-47700. Deneen Kilcrease manages the chemistry section at the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s crime lab.
MSNBC ‘Morning Joe’ hosts engaged “Morning Joe” cohosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski say they are engaged, confirming rumors of an off-screen romance that have been swirling since last year. The MSNBC personalities revealed their engagement to Vanity Fair in an interview for
an article published just after their show ended Thursday morning. The engagement was first reported by the New York Post’s Page Six earlier Thursday and confirmed with MSNBC by The Associated Press. Regular panelist Harold Ford Jr. offered his congratulations at the top of Thursday’s show. Brzezinski thanked him before fellow co-host Willie Geist joked that Ford was congratulating the pair on the show’s ratings. Brzezinski told Vanity Fair that Scarborough proposed during a recent trip to France for Brzezinski’s 50th birthday, which was May 2. They were walking up a hill to a hotel bar in the coastal town of Antibes when Brzezinski said Scarborough got down on one knee, presented Brzezinski with an ovalshaped diamond ring and asked the question. “Absolutely,” Brzezinski replied. Plans for the couple’s wedding have yet to be finalized, but they’re ruling out an offer from President Donald Trump to do the honors.
Police: No evidence of racism in killings SAN DIEGO — San Diego police say they’ve found no evidence that a deadly shooting rampage at a pool party was racist, although most victims were black. The white gunman, Peter Selis, killed a woman and wounded six people Sunday at the apartment complex where he lived before police killed him. All but two victims were black. Some survivors have said they believe Selis selected minority victims. But Assistant Police Chief Brian Ahearn says Selis made no statements and had no materials in his home indicating the attack was a hate crime. He says investigators who interviewed party guests and acquaintances determined that Selis was bankrupt and despondent about a recent breakup with his girlfriend. In a statement, family members said that they can’t understand what prompted Selis to attack.

Capitol celebrated as historic landmark JACKSON — Mississippi officials are celebrating the designation of the state Capitol as a National Historic Landmark. Gov. Phil Bryant and others took part in a ceremony Thursday inside the structure that is still a working statehouse. The Capitol cost only $1 million when it was built between 1901 and 1903. It has undergone multiple restoration efforts, including current work for waterproofing of the dome. The National Park Service announced last fall that the Capitol would join more than 2,500 other sites in the U.S. with landmark status. The building has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1969.

Gulfport police spokesman Sgt. Joshua Bromen officers went to the apartment after getting a 911 call about a death. Bromen says one person of interest is in custody and police are not seeking others.

Eye on jobs Economists predict that hiring in the U.S. rebounded in April after a steep drop the previous month. They expect the Labor Department will report on Friday that nonfarm employers added 185,000 jobs in April. That would represent an increase from March, when the economy added just 98,000 jobs. In the first three months of this year, employers added an average of 178,000 jobs a month.

Targeting shareholder power New Republican legislation is advancing in the U.S. House to unwind the stricter regulations that came in after the 2008 financial crisis. The sweeping bill would ease crucial rules governing banks, Wall Street and financial companies. Tucked deep inside the 500-page bill is a narrowly focused provision that steps into the world of shareholder activism and company annual meetings. The provision would make it harder for individuals or groups of shareholders to put proposals for company policy changes to a vote by all shareholders. To submit a proposal, you’d have to hold more of the company’s outstanding stock than currently and to have held it
proposed Republican legislation would make it much harder for individual shareholders to put forward proposals to change a company’s policies.

Oil and gas tracker
New data should provide insight into how much credit consumers are using. Consumers stepped up their borrowing in February as a rebound in the use of credit cards offset a slowdown in auto and student loans. Total borrowing rose $15.2 billion, the biggest gain in three months. That gain in February pushed total consumer credit to a record $3.79 trillion. The Federal Reserve reports its consumer borrowing data for March today.
Oilfield services company Baker Hughes issues today its latest weekly tally of U.S. oil and natural gas rigs. Last week, the number of rigs rose to 870. That tally included 697 rigs exploring for oil and 171 seeking natural gas. Two were listed as miscellaneous. The rig count has been rebounding steadily since last year after a protracted slide caused by declining oil prices. The U.S. rig count peaked at 4,530 in 1981. It bottomed out in May 2016 at 404.

For mom rewriting her will, time with her kids is money Abigail Van Buren Dear Abby
D E A R ABBY: I divorced my narcissistic husband after our children were raised. Over the years, I have tried to have a relationship with all of my children and
their families. When I asked one of them for a three-day weekend with her children, she texted me saying they all had a lot going on. Then she added, “Maybe next year.” I may not BE here next year! I know she may never read this, but it doesn’t matter to me if it will help someone who does read it. I have decided to change my will. If I’m not worth my children’s time, they don’t deserve my money. Your thoughts? -WORTHLESS UP NORTH DEAR WORTHLESS: Could it be possible that your daughter and her family are actually busy? Not knowing how you raised your children, it’s hard to render an opinion, but from your reaction, you appear to have a troubled relationship with this daughter. Rather than disinherit
her, try to find out what motivated her to text what she did so fences can be mended. If that’s not possible, then you have every right to reallocate your assets as you wish. DEAR ABBY: I have a huge problem with low self-esteem. For most of my life I was ridiculed, teased and bullied, not only by my classmates and coworkers, but also by my own family. It started when I was very young and continued well into my early 30s. (I am 35 now.) Because of this, I find it incredibly difficult to date anyone. I always seem to find it easier to talk down about myself than to make myself happy. Please help me, Abby. I’m at a loss about what to do. -- SELF-ESTEEM ISSUES IN OHIO DEAR ISSUES: I’m glad you wrote. The seeds of low selfesteem were planted when you were so young you didn’t understand what was being done was a form of abuse. Because it continued for so long, you should seek professional help to overcome it. It is important that you get it from a licensed therapist. Your physician or your insurance company can refer you to qualified people. Please don’t wait. DEAR ABBY: Prior to meet-
ing me, my husband was in a long-term relationship with a woman, “Karen,” who was also a close friend of his sisters. Their relationship and the friendships ended due to Karen’s behavior. Years passed, and then my husband met me. Now, 10 years later, the sisters have decided to befriend Karen again. This would normally not be an issue, but Karen is invited to all family parties and weddings. It is very uncomfortable for my husband and me, as we feel we don’t have the option to skip these events. I have tried to quietly object, but I’m being painted as “immature.” Please help. -- UNCOMFORTABLE IN ILLINOIS DEAR UNCOMFORTABLE: If you and your husband prefer not to socialize regularly with Karen, you certainly don’t have to. However, your discomfort with her does not entitle you to insist your sisters-in-law exclude her from all of their parties. Attend the ones you must, make the best of them, and send your regrets for the rest. 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). You can’t blame your brain for being skeptical of your gut feelings. Your gut draws wisdom from a mysterious place that your brain has never been to, doesn’t know the location of, and doubts the existence of in the first place. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There’s a lot around that needs to be organized, but if you can organize your priorities first, you’ll avoid wasting time on things that won’t matter five days from now. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s important to do the things that make you “you” on a regular basis. If you have to tone those things down or do less of them for the sake of a relationship, it could point to trouble going forward. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The person who’s talking isn’t always communicating, and the person who’s hearing isn’t always listening. Intentions, on the other hand, can be felt viscerally. Intentions will speak the loudest today.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Just as brevity is the soul of wit (according to Shakespeare) and the soul of lingerie (according to Dorothy Parker), brevity is also the soul of pleasure. Too much of any good thing is a terrible thing. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your inner self is pulling for something your head still isn’t sure about. This internal conflict of interests is making it difficult to move forward, but maybe forward isn’t the direction you originally thought it was. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Whatever comes at you today, you’ve seen it before, or something like it at least. Therefore you won’t flinch. You suspect this is for the best and highest good, and you’ll handle it like the winner you are. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). On many subjects, society’s rules are your rules. It doesn’t always work for you this way though. There are a few societal trends you simply can’t abide by, and you’ll prove yourself bigger than society as you do it
your way today. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Good communication isn’t something you can establish and then forget about. It needs to be maintained. Check in with your loved ones to open and strengthen those lines. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There’s much you will do with your mind -- dream, go back and forth in time, have conversations with people you’ve never met. Your imagination is your most useful tool to influence and create your world. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). When love is disappointing, you have your friends. And when friends are the trouble, you have your love. But today is different. Today you have both and life is truly wonderful. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There are certain conflicts that will never be resolved because they are too deeply rooted in core differences. Peace can be restored nonetheless when parties agree not to fight and instead focus elsewhere.

Corinth second-baseman Spencer Lee swipes his glove up to show the umpire he had control of the ball after tagging out Pontotoc base-runner Trey Shelton, during the fourth inning of Thursday’s 4A playoff game at Warrior Field.
Pontotoc uses 3-run blast to win BY KENT MOHUNDRO kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com
Rubber bands stretch at both ends. By comparison, Thursday night’s 4A playoff game between Corinth and Pontotoc stretched a little more on the visiting Warriors end as they left town with a 7-3 win in game one of the third round series. “We just didn’t connect with the ball tonight like we have been,” said 12th year Corinth skipper Rob Scarbrough. “Their pitcher was good but it was nothing we haven’t seen all year. It was curveball and fastball all night. We just didn’t do a
good enough job getting the hits we needed.” The hometown Warriors swept Pontotoc in their regular season series 4-1 and 5-1. Kyle Crigger struck out eight PHS batters the first time he faced them and Jackson Lancaster struck out over 10 black-and-gold Warriors the first go-around. Crigger struck out eight again last night but this time Pontotoc found the holes they didn’t find the first two games. Granted, the Tribe made a couple of fielding errors that contributed to a couple of runs but Pontotoc committed five miscues themselves to help put
Corinth in position to win the game late. One fact remains though that favors the red-andblack. “We haven’t lost back-toback games all season so I’ll take my chances going over there (Pontotoc) tomorrow and winning and bringing it back here to Corinth for a game three,” said Scarbrough. The so-called rubber band was pulled first by the visitors as they struck for a pair of first inning runs and another in the second before Corinth started to chip away. “They got those two runs early with a couple of lin-
ers down the first and third base sides and then we made a fielding error that didn’t help,” the CHS coach continued. “After they scored those runs they had the bases loaded and Kyle (Crigger) was able to work out of the jam.” Will Agnew entered the game in the bottom of the second as a pinch runner and came around to score Corinth’s first run on a solid hit by Avery Davis that cut Pontotoc’s lead to 3-1. The following inning, the visiting Warriors threatened again when Brandon Hale doubled to right with two Please see RECAP | 11A

MSU’s Gridley named to Logano, Penske fined following Richmond win academic All-District team The Associated Press
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — NASCAR has penalized Joey Logano four days after his win at Richmond International Raceway, essentially stripping him of all benefits that came with the Monster Cup Series victory. The sanctioning body issued Logano and Team Penske a L1 penalty on Thursday for a rear suspension violation. The infraction was discovered during teardown at the R&D Center in Concord, North Carolina. Logano cannot use the Richmond win as consideration for an automatic playoff spot. Should Logano still
make the postseason, the five playoff points that come with a victory would not count. The official race record will still list Logano as the winner. The No. 22 team also was fined $50,000 and docked 25 driver points and 25 owner points. Crew chief Todd Gordon was suspended two races. Team Penske said it was disappointed by the decision, but no appeal was planned. Miles Stanley will serve as Logano’s crew chief this weekend at Talladega Superspeedway, with Greg Please see FINED | 11A

against PHS pitcher Trace Spears. Corinth had stretched the rubber band the other direction. However, as high as the emotions ran entering the seventh for Corinth, Pontotoc’s Harris wiped them out with a three-run blast over the rightfield fence to push the visiting Warriors back on top 6-3. An insurance run made it 7-3. Corinth had one last chance in the bottom of the seventh but Spears got Manness to ground out to short, Lancaster grounded to the first baseman who flipped the ball to Spears for the second out and Alex Trice grounded out to short to end the game. “We simply didn’t make enough plays tonight and didn’t play well enough,� said Scarbrough. “We’ve gotta go to Pontotoc now and take care of business and get this thing back home for game three.� Game two is scheduled to be played at Pontotoc Friday starting at 7 weather permitting. Pontotoc does have a tarp on their field so chances are the game will be played unless it rains all day Friday.
outs and then stole third. But Crigger struck out Hayden Harris to end the inning and the Tribe still down 3-1. The home Warriors answered with their second run of the game in the bottom half of the third when, with Kerrigan Manness on first, Lancaster drove one to left field that got down for a single. But the left-fielder misplayed the ball and it got away and bounced all the way to the fence allowing Kerrigan to come all the way around to score and cut Pontotoc’s lead to 3-2. After scoreless innings in the fourth and fifth, Crigger sat Pontotoc down in order with a strikeout, groundout and flyout in the top of the sixth before Corinth tied the game in dramatic fashion. Hayden Scarbrough started the rally with a single right back up the middle before Agnew came in to pinch run again. Baylor Frazier laid down a sacrifice bunt to move Agnew to second with one out. Then Davis singled to right again to drive home (Kent Mohundro is Agnew to knot the game at 3 but the Tribe couldn’t the sports editor for manage anything else the Daily Corinthian)

In James Gunn’s sequel to his swashbuckling space Western, the Guardians of the Galaxy do their version of “The Empire Strikes Back,� complete with daddy issues but with a considerably more anarchic spirit and enough acerbic interplay among its interstellar gang to make Obi-Wan blush. The wild whiz-bang of the first “Guardians� and its gleeful upending of superhero conventions was, I thought, not the secondcoming others felt it was. Having sat through a meteor shower of imposingly well-made Marvel products, the too-pleasedwith-itself “Guardians� felt to me like an intensely scripted politician trying to smugly crack wise. When the motley crew of scavengers reunites in “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,� many of its tricks — the anachronistic ’70s hits, the exotically foul-mouthed creatures — are not the sneak attack they were in 2014. But that turns out to be a good thing. No longer so busy advertising his movie’s genre transgressions, Gunn, who wrote and directed the sequel, is free to swim backstrokes through his cosmic, CGIspiced gumbo. It’s a soupy, silly spectacle that recalls, if nothing else, the weird, kaleidoscopic design of a Parliament-Funkadelic album cover. Gunn’s film also shares George Clinton’s goofy extravagance (and includes his song “Flashlight�), and a neoncolored cast with its own Mothership. There are two types in the universe, Dave Bautista’s muscle-mound Drax declares early on.
When the motley crew of scavengers reunites ... many of its tricks ... are not the sneak attack they were in 2014. But that turns out to be a good thing. “Those who dance and those who do not.â€? In the “Guardiansâ€? universe, which blithely mocks just about everything, this is close to a mission statement. Whereas the first film featured Chris Pratt’s Peter Quill on a faraway planet bopping to Redbone’s “Come and Get Your Love,â€? the early scenes of “Vol. 2â€? find the Guardians battling some giant monster while Baby Groot — the extraterrestrial tree turned sapling (voiced by Vin Diesel) — grooves to ELO’s “Mr. Blue Sky.â€? The “Guardiansâ€? universe, made up of such ironies and oddities, worships at the altar of incongruity. Referenced within are “Cheers,â€? Mary Poppins, Looking Glass’ “Brandy (You’re a Fine Girl),â€? David Hasselho and Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain.â€? It’s the kind of wacked-out tapestry that even Lindsey Buckingham would find headspinning. While Quill resembles a classic Han Solo-like hero, his fellow Guardians — Zoe Saldana’s green-skinned Gamora, the caustic, Bradley Cooper-voiced raccoon Rocket, Drax and Groot — are a multi-species band of outsiders. No two are alike in temperament or genetics. Though they bicker endlessly, they’re a cobbled-together, multispecies family, just one more likely to trade in-
sults than hugs. And the nature of family is at the center of “Vol. 2.â€? Quill, having lost his mother as a young child in the first film, learns that his father is a “celestial,â€? or deity, named Ego (Kurt Russell), with a planet of his own creation. The Guardians meet him after fleeing the remote-controlled pods that pursue them when Rocket steals batteries from Ayesha (Elizabeth Debicki), the High Priestess of the goldenhued Sovereign race. Returning is Michael Rooker’s excellent Yondu Udonta, who resembles a rejected audition to the Blue Man Group and controls a lethal arrow with a whistle. He’s hired to capture the Guardians, but his character — who raised the orphaned Quill — plays an unexpectedly emotional role in Quill’s journey into his past. The eect is similar for Gamora’s sister Nebula, the Guardians’ furious prisoner. Others are in the mix, too, including a brief cameo by Sylvester Stallone and, more impressively, Chris Sullivan’s mutinying, unfortunately named pirate Taserface. “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,â€? a Walt Disney Co. release, is rated PG13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for “intense sequences of sci-fi violence, and brief suggestive content.â€? Running time: 136 minutes. Three stars out of four.

Sometimes you just have to get turned around …So what do you do when you’re headed toward the top of a hill on a narrow street and read the sign that says “Dead End” – and you’re pulling a 16’ livestock trailer and you see the only place to turn around is a short driveway at a stranger’s house? No circle driveway anywhere to be seen. That happened to my husband and me last week after we had picked up a horse in West Mississippi. Trying to find a place to eat on the way home, we drove through Oxford. If you went to school at Ole Miss or are just an Ole Miss fan, you would
know all about the area – but my husband went to Mississippi State Lora Ann and I went Huff to college about Back Porch 20 miles west of Starkville. We know about that area - but nothing about Oxford. When we first realized we had made a turn into a residential area, we were going to just “make a block” and come back out where we started from. Much to our surprise, af-
ter making a left turn to complete the block, we saw the sign. Thinking he might turn in a driveway, my husband drove a little further and realized there was no way to turn the rig around at the top so the only alternative was to back down the hill. With cars parked on the side of the street, he knew it was a challenge, but all of Hansford’s life, he could back a trailer as easily as pulling it forward; it’s just easier in familiar territory. So down the hill we slowly backed, with me helping him be sure he missed the cars. We laughed and we
cringed and then backed some more. Luckily, there wasn’t much traffic - only one car went around us on the wrong side. We couldn’t see how hard they were laughing or what words they might have said about the crazy people who turned into a dead end street with a horse trailer! We made it safely! We backed down to the street we came out of and made our way out of the maze. Then we drove through downtown, not because we wanted to but because we had to in order to get back to a major highway.
My son-in-law jokingly asked if we went to “The Square.” I said, “If you’re talking about the one around the Courthouse, the answer is ‘yes’ and I’ll bet they don’t see many livestock trailers come through that part of town!” He thought it was quite funny and I do, too, now that it’s over. It wasn’t funny at the time. We saw plenty of good places to eat lunch – trouble was there was no place to park the truck and trailer. But God is good and after getting back on the highway, we did find food at a restaurant chain
with a large parking lot and got ourselves composed and fed. …So when you see folks doing funny things in your town, don’t be so quick to criticize. They may have been totally surprised at something that just happened to them and they’re trying to figure out how to “fix it.” Smile and be kind – you may need the favor returned someday.

‘Don’t cry because it’s over; smile because it happened!’ Don’t cry because it’s over; smile because it happened! — Dr. Seuss What a great saying and verse. Most of us are guilty of feeling sad and lonely because we go to an event or family gathering and when it is over we think to our self, “Why does it have to end?” We relish in the company Gary of friends Andrews and family and enjoy Devotionals the good times, conversations, and each other’s company. We go away from a truly great event sad because it is over and complain because it will be no more. Many of us get caught up in the moment and for that brief period of time we are satisfied with who and what is around us. We take our self out of the world and our worries become lost in the back of our mind. This is some of the greatest moments we will experience while on this earth. Then our event ends; our friends and family disperse, and we drop into that feeling of loneliness. Many of us become depressed because we are afraid of losing that feeling of happiness and enjoyment and now must face the world again. Just because we have had a great time with family and friends we shouldn’t let parting take away from the joy that we experienced. We should all be glad and smile because the event or gathering took place and relish in the memories that it will provide.
Suggested daily Bible readings Sunday – Romans 13:11-14; Monday – Jeremiah 31:7-12; Tuesday – Matthew 28:1-8; Wednesday – Daniel 8:15-27; Thursday – Philippians 4:1-7; Friday – Proverbs 20:5-7; Saturday – Acts 10:123
well-wishers came by that day to wish me well as I started a new chapter in my life. It gave the same feeling as if I was leaving something that I had enjoyed for 35 plus years and yet it wasn’t going to be the same tomorrow. Do I feel regret that it is over? Yes, but in a sense of missing the people I was with and around every day. Do I wish I could go back and relive some of the moments that took place during my tenure? Yes, but most people will always wish they could re-live some moments of their life again. The verse in Ecclesiastes gives me comfort for I know the Lord has a season for everything that I
do. Whether it is retiring or leaving a family event I feel that crying is unnecessary because it was a great time, even though that part of life passed so quickly. It truly is a time when all of us, no matter what we are doing or what we have been to or done, should relish in the fact that memories are great to have and that the Lord is truly in control. This one statement; “Don’t cry because it’s over; smile because it happened” stays with me and in my heart all of the time because in only a short while when all of us will leave our family on earth and go home to be with the Lord.

We at Michie Primitive Church would like to take this opportunity to let you know that you are welcome to come and worship with us every Sunday morning. We hope with this article, to introduce you to the Michie Primitive Baptist Church, and what we believe. The word "Primitive" means original, so you could call us the Original or Old Baptist. There are several churches that use the name "Baptist" today. I am sure that you are familiar with these names, having many in our area that use the Baptist name However in the history of the church the Baptist at one time were all together in one accord. Around 1830 the Baptist split over disagreement on doctrinal differences. The group who remain with the original Baptist teaching began to call themselves Primitive Baptist to distinguish themselves from other who used the name Baptist. Primitive Baptist believe that: That there are three persons in the Godhead, the Father, the Word (Son) and the Holy Spirit. These three are one in mind and purpose. What is commonly referred to as the Holy Trinity (1 John 5:7) Jesus is the Christ the son of the living God (Matthew 16:16). The name Jesus was given to Christ because the Father sent him to be the Savior of all that he had given him, and not a single one of them shall be lost. (Matthew 1:21 John 6:38-40). Eternal salvation is completely by the grace of our loving God (Romans 3: 24 Ephesians 1:6,7) The Scriptures which consist of the Old and New Testament are the inspired word of God (2 Timothy 3:16). The Church is set up on the teachings of the Apostles, with Jesus Christ being the chief corner stone (1 Corinthians 3:11,12). We believe that the Primitive Baptist church is the church that was established by the Lord Jesus Christ. We do not believe that those that make up the Primitive Baptist Church will be the only ones in heaven. It will be great multitudes which no man can number, out of every nation, kindred, and tongue (Revelation 7:9). We believe that our brothers and sisters of other faiths will be with us in everlasting glory. We are all saved alike by the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 15:11). We do not believe a person's sins and mistakes will bar them from church membership. We are all forgiven sinners in the eyes of God. At Michie, Our worship service is simple, Singing Praises to God as a Congregation, Praying to God for Blessings of Peace, Love, Joy, Health and Happiness, and Preaching by a God called Minister to deliver the Gospel, the Good News, to God's Children. Michie Church is an escape from worldly troubles, with abounding Love for one another. This is some of the principals of the Michie Primitive Baptist Church in layman terms. We meet every Sunday Morning at 10:30 A.M. We are located in the curve on Highway 22 in Michie Tn. If you would like to contact us, contact us at the numbers below. To meet in the house of God is a joyful experience, and we would love to have you come and be with us. Let us worship the great God that has been so good to us.
We are told in Ecclesiastes 3:1; “To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven.” I remember the day of my retirement from the newspaper industry. Family, friends, and many

Dear Annie: On a recent out-of-town excursion to do some shopping and planning for a new bathroom installation, we found ourselves in a very annoying predicament. We stopped for lunch at a very nice restaurant, only to be assaulted by loud music the second we walked in. Thankfully, the waitress honored our request and did turn it down so we could enjoy a nice leisurely lunch. Then it was on to the big-box store for a major purchase — only to be assaulted once again by extremely loud music the minute we stepped inside. Needless to say, the measurements and planning were extremely difficult, as it was hard to think because of the noise. An employee there said it was beyond his control and that there was nothing that could be done. We walked out. That store lost a nice sale because of this. This never used to be a problem. Can’t retailers think and play quiet background music or none at all? Most people have things on their minds when shopping. Maybe someone read-
Dear Annie ing this letter will “get” it. Noise pollution is not healthy indoors, for sure. — Nancy Dear Nancy: I hear you loud and clear. When I walk into a store or restaurant and the music is blasting, I tend to turn right back around. And we’re not alone. In a study by consumer marketing blog Triggerpulling, loud music shortened the average consumer’s shopping time. Though I have no practical advice to give (short of perhaps keeping some earplugs handy in your purse), I’m printing this as a plea to retailers and restaurateurs alike: Please, keep it down. Dear Annie: I am a faithful reader of the column and felt compelled to write in because I can really relate to “Deep in Dishes,” whose roommate isn’t cleaning up after herself in the kitchen. I shared an apartment with two dear friends during college. Two of us were “clean
freaks” and did our dishes daily. Our third, just like the roommate “Deep in Dishes” wrote about, left hers for days, forgot they were hers and then refused to do them. Plates, frying pans with stuck-on food, etc. — they’d sit in the sink for days. Please tell “Deep in Dishes” to put anything left unwashed overnight by “Wendy” in a small plastic tub and leave it on her bed. The kitchen will be clean, and Wendy won’t be able to deny they are hers. And if she leaves them in the sink again without washing them, they should reappear on her bed the next day. Worked like a charm for us. By the way, 30 years later, we are still close friends and laugh about this! — Debbie H. Dear Debbie: I hear so many stories about how living together has caused fallingouts and ruined friendships. It’s refreshing to hear from someone who didn’t let roommate problems sink a great friendship. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.
