One dead in Corinth homicide BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Corinth police are investigating a Wednesday night shooting death in a Tate Street home. Police Chief Ralph Dance said the victim is Paul D. Lavender, 49, of 1427 Tate Street.
A $23,000 fundraising goal was set so 1,000 food baskets can be given to local families.
“It appears he was shot in the bedroom where he was laying,” said Dance. “It may have been two different guns he was shot with. A witness stated that they saw two black males running from the scene, one with a handgun and one with a long gun, maybe some type of rifle.”
Away in a manger
Basket Fund continues rise The 21st Annual Corinth Rotary Club/Daily Corinthian Christmas Basket Fund continues to rise. A $23,000 fundraising goal was set so 1,000 food baskets can be given to local families beginning at 8 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 17 at the Crossroads Arena. The newspaper has received $7,060 in donations so far. Donations include a $50 gift from Barbara Taylor in memory of Leroy Hopkins. Christmas Basket Fund donations can be made “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special person or persons. The tribute will be published in the Daily Corinthian. Donations can be brought by the newspaper office or mailed to: Daily Corinthian, Attn.: Christmas Basket Fund, P.O. Box 1800, Corinth, MS 38835.
The police department received a call about 10:30 p.m. of a possible robbery or burglary. Dance said the victim’s fiancee came home and apparently noticed some things missing. She then went into the bedroom and found Lavender deceased.
Investigators are assessing what may have been taken from the scene by the assailants. Information about this case may be reported to the police department at 286-3377 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-773tips.

A Corinth man was killed in a crash near the state line Wednesday afternoon, and the Tennessee Highway Patrol is seeking an unknown commercial driver who left the scene. THP identified the deceased as Thomas N. Garner, 73, of Corinth. Witnesses described the hit-and-run vehicle as a white tractor pulling an empty log trailer. The crash happened at 3:36 p.m. about a mile north of the state line in Hardin County on Tennessee Highway 142, which is Kendrick Road on the Mississippi side. Garner was headed south in a 2008 Lincoln SGL when the southbound tractor pulling the log trailer began to pass him in a no-passing zone, according to THP, striking the rear driver’s side of the Lincoln, causing the vehicle to spin out of control. The Lincoln ran off the left side of the roadway, struck several trees, reentered the highway and collided with a northbound 1997 Mitsubishi Galant driven by Gary A. Dokey, 69, of Savan-

BIGGERSVILLE — Helping those who need help. Organizers with the 6th annual Biggersville Toy Drive are hoping to make this year their biggest ever as they collect donations in the drive hosted by Biggersville Fire & Rescue. “We’ve had donations come in pretty much every day since we began,” said Jonathan Rider. “Hopefully we will have even more before the deadline next week.” The organization is asking locals to donate new, unwrapped toys for children and families in need in the Big-
gersville community. “We partner with a ministry of Crossroads Baptist Church, led by Bill Chelmowski, that is based at Baxter’s Trailer Park,” said Rider. “Bill and his wife do a great job identifying those who need help and distributing the toys in the Biggersville community.” Rider said Chelmowski will also use some of the smaller
Jane Gurley likes being on the front lines to greet visitors at the Crossroads Museum as an occasional volunteer. “It’s a good way to spend your time and get out of the house,” said Gurley, who retired from Cortelco in 2003. “I like meeting people. We have a lot of people from out of the country, and I really enjoy talking with them.” She has learned much about the museum and Corinth history and enjoys sharing it with the visitors. She likes seeing the trains pass, but “the trains scared me to death at first because they come by so close to you,” said Gurley. A Corinth native who has two sons, she has always been interested in crafts, making dolls, purses and other creations.

mas. Other scenes include Herod’s palace and the arrival of the three wise men. Narration is taken straight from scripture. In past years over a thousand people experienced Christmas Alive at First Presbyterian Church. The program was held last two years ago. Because of the high cost of producing Christmas Alive, Grantham said church members decided to make it an every other
year event. “We are very excited to have it back this year,” Grantham said. Because of the large number of people expected to attend Christmas Alive, parking for the program will be at the Corinth Sportsplex a few blocks north of the church on Webster Street,
with buses running to and from the church. Tours of the Christmas Alive scenes will start every 15 minutes. Christmas Alive will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. The program is free to the public and handicapped accessible. Hot chocolate will be provided.

Across the Region Booneville Patrols to increase in Booneville over holiday
Today is Friday, Dec. 16, the 351st day of 2016. There are 15 days left in the year.
BOONEVILLE — The Prentiss County Sheriff’s Office will be increasing their law enforcement presence during the Holidays (now through the New Year) in support of Mississippi’s “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” Campaign. An increased number of deputies will be patrolling and manning roadside safety checkpoints, checking for occupant restraint violations, driving under the influence and other safety violations. “Remember if you are going to drink, don’t drive,” urged Sheriff Randy M. Tolar.
Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 16, 1991, the U.N. General Assembly rescinded its 1975 resolution equating Zionism with racism by a vote of 111-25.
On this date: In 1773, the Boston Tea Party took place as American colonists boarded a British ship and dumped more than 300 chests of tea into Boston Harbor to protest tea taxes. In 1811, the first of the powerful New Madrid earthquakes struck the central Mississippi Valley with an estimated magnitude of 7.7. In 1930, golfer Bobby Jones became the first recipient of the James E. Sullivan Award honoring outstanding amateur athletes. In 1944, the World War II Battle of the Bulge began as German forces launched a surprise attack against Allied forces through the Ardennes Forest in Belgium and Luxembourg (the Allies were eventually able to turn the Germans back). In 1956, Francis Cardinal Spellman, the Archbishop of New York, personally denounced the about-to-be released movie “Baby Doll” starring Carroll Baker, saying Catholics would be committing a sin if they saw it. In 1960, 134 people were killed when a United Air Lines DC-8 and a TWA Super Constellation collided over New York City. In 1976, the government halted its swine flu vaccination program following reports of paralysis apparently linked to the vaccine. In 1985, at services in Fort Campbell, Kentucky, President Ronald Reagan and his wife, Nancy, offered condolences to families of 248 soldiers killed in the crash of a chartered plane in Newfoundland.
Booneville State superintendent tours local school BOONEVILLE — Mississippi’s top education official says the state’s education system is moving in the right direction and highly successful districts like Booneville are leading the way. State Superintendent of Education Dr. Carey Wright visited Anderson Elementary School last week as part of a tour across the state stopping at A rated schools and districts to praise their success and get a look at the innovative efforts helping push the state’s education efforts into the future. The Booneville School District was one of only 14 districts across the state to achieve the coveted
A rating and Anderson Elementary was one of the elite group of schools to receive the top level. “We are on our way up in Mississippi, we’ve made a commitment to higher standards, we’ve got an incredible focus on literacy and we believe all children can learn and achieve,” she said. Wright said she understands that successfully educating tomorrow’s leaders is a team effort that begins in the classroom and includes teachers, administrators, parents, staff members, students and the community working together. “Every student, teacher and staff member in this entire district had to work their absolute hardest to get an A. You are as capable, if not more capable, than any student in this nation or in this world and don’t you ever forget that,” she told a gym full of students gathered for her visit. During her tour across the state, Wright said she’s seen a common thread of enthusiasm, community support and high expectations that exists in all of the state’s elite districts. The same qualities are evident in the Booneville School District and the state leader said it’s clear in Booneville that success comes from the top with strong leadership in the superintendent’s office setting the bar high and providing the resources and support to allow teachers to be successful. Booneville Superintendent Dr. Todd English said he’s extremely proud of the district’s success and gave credit to the
entire staff of teachers and administrators as well as parents and the community. “We believe a great teacher is the foundation upon which success is built. Parental involvement and great teachers equate to a successful child and ultimately school,” said English. He noted the district has been A rated in five of the last 10 years and has been among the top 10 districts in the state for the past four years running. He said this is despite a district seeing significant changes in demographics. He said it all comes down to high expectations and a community of people who buy in to those expectations and believe every student can succeed.
Blue Mountain BMC recognized for lowest student loan rate BLUE MOUNTAIN — According to the “Student Loan Report,” the class of 2015 graduated with an average student loan debt of $16,929. For Mississippi students, the average student loan debt was $17,748. Using Peterson’s data (provided by college financial aid personnel) for the class of 2015, the Report compiled and analyzed average student loan debt data from 1,238 colleges and universities around the nation. Blue Mountain College, a private Christian liberal arts college, was ranked number one in Mississippi when it comes to the lowest average debt per graduate. With 70 percent of
BMC’s students taking out loans for their college education, the average loan debt at graduation is $12,815. This is $4,900 less than the state’s average. “One of our goals at Blue Mountain College is to help our students get out of college with as little debt as possible,” stated Lynn Gibson, vice president for enrollment services that oversees admissions and financial aid. BMC’s rankings in the 2017 “U.S. News and World Report” placed the college as number two in the “Best Value” category and number seven in the overall “Regional College South.” “We are pleased that our graduates are able to enter the workforce with a great education and relatively less debt than many of their counterparts,” said Barbara McMillin, BMC president.
Tupelo Renasant Bank: Stock sale will raise $75M TUPELO (AP) — A Mississippi bank says it’s likely to raise $75 million by selling new stock to investors. Renasant Corp., the Tupelobased parent company of Renasant Bank, said Wednesday that it will sell 1.9 million new shares at $41.50 per share. After paying underwriting firms $3.5 million, the bank expects to net $75 million. The company says it will use the money to grow internally, buy other banks, pay back debt, or to hold as reserve capital.

Corinth, Miss.
Trump win boosts Hood for governor OXFORD — It doesn’t take 30 years of writing about Mississippi politics to figure out that strange things happen, but here are some thoughts: • The election of nominal Republican Donald Trump Charlie actually boosts the odds for Mitchell Democrat state Attorney General Jim Hood should he Columnist choose to run for governor. How is that, you say? Hood has been the only Democrat elected to statewide office for quite a while. Hood is the go-to guy if the state party ever gets its act together. (The 2015 nominee for governor was a friendly truck driver whose mother didn’t know he was running.) Now in his fourth term, Hood did have a serious Republican challenger in the last election. In that contest, Hood was assailed as a clone of Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton. Why? Because Obama, Pelosi and Clinton do not win popularity contests in these parts. It wasn’t an unwise strategy to frame Hood, a genial son of the South, as best buddy to raging liberals. It didn’t work, but it could have. Other moderate Democrats in conservative states have fallen to the tactic of wedding them to the party’s national icons. But with Trump’s win, Hillary Clinton will not be in the White House. Obama will be surfing and playing golf. Make no mistake, if Hood seeks the governor’s office he will still be depicted as a liberal. That was a winning strategy in this state in 1950 and it will be in 2019. But there’s no big-name leftist with which to saddle Hood. That’s a plus. • The worm has turned at the Mississippi Public Service Commission. For decades, this quiet panel, composed of three elected members from Northern, Central and Southern districts, was reliably supportive of most anything any private utility company — especially the big boys — wanted to do. Utilities are granted monopoly service areas and, in exchange, are required to deal with the PSC. The PSC’s duties, most simply stated, are to encourage good and widespread availability of utilities, to assure ownership is profitable (within reason) and to keep consumers (who have no choice about where to buy electricity, water, sewer services and such) from being gouged. As hinted, that last tenet was often forgotten. Not anymore. Under the leadership of Northern District Commissioner Brandon Presley, a populist’s populist and not to be ruled for a future governor’s race, the PSC has morphed into the consumer protection agency it was always supposed to be. Specifically when it comes to Mississippi Power’s beleaguered lignite plant in Kemper County, the PSC has stepped up and asked the serious questions that should have been being asked all along. • Speaking of popularity, Phil Bryant’s not much of a tweeter. Like other state officials, he uses this communication tool — which Trump so effectively uses to bypass the media — mostly to thank Rotary Clubs for inviting him and such. As of today, few in Mississippi officials have yet grasped the power of this tool to control the public conversation. It’s probably true that Mississippians are not as addicted to social media as elsewhere, but it’s coming. Santa should bring all existing and aspiring politicians Twitter lessons, and perhaps Trump’s new book, tentatively titled, “The Art of the Tweet.” Charlie Mitchell is a Mississippi journalist. Write to him at cmitchell43@yahoo.com.
Prayer for today Almighty God, wilt thou guide me in the direction where I may choose a useful life; open wide my heart as well as my eyes, that I may early see my work and be diligent in its prosecution. Reveal to me, when I may have failed, that I may do better to-morrow. Amen.
A verse to share But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare. —2 Peter 3:10
Will Trump defy McCain and Marco? When word leaked that Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson, a holder of the Order of Friendship award in Putin’s Russia, was Donald Trump’s choice for secretary of state, John McCain had this thoughtful response: “Vladimir Putin is a thug, a bully, and a murderer and anybody else who describes him as anything else is lying.” Yet, Putin is something else, the leader of the largest nation on earth, a great power with enough nuclear weapons to wipe the United States off the face of the earth. And we have to deal with him. McCain was echoed by the senior Democrat on foreign relations, Bob Menendez, who said naming Tillerson secretary of state would be “alarming and absurd ... guaranteeing Russia has a willing accomplice in the (Trump) Cabinet guiding our nation’s foreign policy.” Sen. Marco Rubio chimed in: “Being a ‘friend of Vladimir’ is not an attribute I am hoping for from a Secretary of State.” If just three GOP senators vote no on Tillerson, and Democrats vote as a bloc against him, his nomination would go down. President Trump would sustain a major and humiliating defeat. Who is Tillerson? A corporate titan, he has traveled
the world, represented Exxon in 60 countries, is on a firstname basis with countPat less leadBuchanan ers, and is endorsed by Columnist Condi Rice and Robert Gates. Dr. Samuel Johnson’s observation -- “A man is seldom more innocently occupied than when he is engaged in making money” -- may be a bit of a stretch when it comes to OPEC and the global oil market. Yet there is truth to it. Most businessmen are interested in doing deals, making money, and, if the terms are not met, walking away, not starting a war. And here is the heart of the objection to Tillerson. He wants to end sanctions and partner with Putin’s Russia, as does Trump. But among many in the mainstream media, think tanks, websites, and on the Hill, this is craven appeasement. The attacks on Tillerson coincide with new attacks on Russia, based on CIA sources, alleging that not only did Moscow hack into the Democratic Party and Clinton campaign, and leak what it found to hurt Hillary Clinton, but Russia was try-
ing to help elect Trump, and succeeded. Why would Moscow do this? Monday’s editorial in The New York Times explains: “In Mr. Trump, the Russians had reason to see a malleable political novice, one who had surrounded himself with Kremlin lackeys.” Backed by Democratic leader Sen. Chuck Schumer, McCain has announced an investigation. The goal, said the Times, is to determine “whether anyone within Trump’s inner circle coordinated with the Kremlin and whether Moscow spread fake news to hurt Mrs. Clinton.” What is going on here? More than meets the eye. The Times editorial spoke of a “darkening cloud” already over the Trump presidency, and warned that a failure to investigate and discover the full truth of Russia’s hacking could only “feed suspicion among millions of Americans that ... (t)he election was indeed rigged.” Behind the effort to smear Tillerson and delegitimize Trump lies a larger motive. Trump has antagonists in both parties who alarmed at his triumph because it imperils the foreign policy agenda that is their raison d’etre, their reason for being.
These people do not want to lift sanctions on Moscow. They do not want an end to the confrontation with Russia. They have in mind the permanent U.S. encirclement of Russia. Their goal is to bring about “regime change” in Moscow. In the campaign, Trump said he wanted to get along with Russia, to support all the forces inside Syria and Iraq fighting to wipe out ISIS and al-Qaida, and to stay out of any new Middle East wars that have cost us “six trillion dollars.” This is what America voted for when it voted for Trump -- to put America First and “make America great again.” But War Party agitators are already beating the drums for confrontation with Iran. Early in his presidency, if not before, Trump is going to have to impose his foreign policy upon his own party and, indeed, upon his own government. Or his presidency will be broken, as was Lyndon Johnson’s. A good place to begin is by accepting the McCain-Marco challenge and nominating Rex Tillerson for secretary of state. Let’s get it on. Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of the new book “The Greatest Comeback: How Richard Nixon Rose From Defeat to Create the New Majority.”
Free advice for the Democratic Party Herewith some unsolicited free advice for the Democratic Party. Whether it’s worth more than the price, I leave up to Democrats to decide. The first thing to remember is that the Democratic Party is the oldest political party in the world. It’s had its ups and downs. Under any fair reading of history, it has done many good things for this country and the world. It is not going away any time soon. But it is in a bad way. Its chances of recapturing the presidency in 2020 depend largely on decisions by Republicans and on events outside anyone’s control. Democrats currently hold fewer House seats, governorships and state legislatures than at any time since the 1920s. And the signature policies of the outgoing Democratic president — Obamacare and the Iranian nuclear deal — are not political assets. The first thing Democrats need to do is to end the alibi game. Yes, it’s shattering to lose a presidential election that, until the 9 o’clock hour on election night, you seemed sure to win. But alibis don’t help you

win next time. Don’t blame “fake news” when your candidate had more money Michael to spend deBarone livering her message. Columnist Don’t blame the FBI director when your candidate violated laws and the attorney general had to disqualify herself after revelation of her secret meeting with the candidate’s husband. Don’t blame the “racism” of an electorate that twice elected the first black president. Don’t blame the Electoral College when everyone knew beforehand that you need 270 electoral votes, not a popular vote, to win. Blame instead the Clinton campaign’s “ascendant America” strategy — to reassemble the 2012 Obama coalition of nonwhites and millennials, on the assumption that the attitudes of other voters, notably white non-college graduates who cast critical Obama votes in the Midwest, would remain static. Exit polls showed that Donald Trump, suppos-
edly toxic to nonwhites, ran slightly better among them than Mitt Romney did in 2012. Their apparent regression to the mean, to voting more like the national average, undercuts the theory that nonwhites, tormented by oppression and seething with grievance, will remain Democratic forever. To recover, Democrats need to take a look at the map. The relevant map in this election divides the nation between coastal America and heartland America (the South, the Midwest and the Mountain West, as well as energy states Alaska and Pennsylvania). Coastal America casts 31 percent of popular votes and 170 electoral votes. Heartland America casts 69 percent of popular votes and 368 electoral votes. Clinton earned all but one electoral vote in coastal America. But in heartland America, Clinton got only 63 electoral votes, compared with Trump’s 305. Yes, Trump won the 46 electoral votes of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin by a combined popular vote margin of only 77,193. But the fact is he didn’t need a single popular vote in coast-

al America to win. Democrats are even weaker in heartland down-ballot elections. In races for the House of Representatives, Republicans won more than 200 seats there, compared with only 90 for Democrats. Democrats could win half of the Republicans’ 35 U.S. House seats in coastal America and still fall short of a House majority. My advice to Democrats is the advice Justice Louis Brandeis gave to young New Dealers in the 1930s. “Get out of Washington,” he said. “Go home, back to the states.” Leave the coastal cocoons. Return to your hometown or set down new roots, and run for office in the heartland — not in university towns but in real America. The Democratic Party and the nation would be wellserved if smart, ambitious young Democrats started packing their bags and competing where their party has been falling fatally short.

Freed-Hardeman benefit raises $1.68 million For the Daily Corinthian
HENDERSON, Tenn. — FreedHardeman University’s 52nd Annual Benefit Dinner grossed almost $1.7 million Friday, Dec. 2, according to FHU President Joe Wiley. Peyton Manning, retired quarterback of the Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos, was the speaker. The amount is second only to the 2010 dinner which featured former President George W. Bush. Manning focused his remarks on the qualities required for leadership, whether on the field, in the classroom, or in the corporate world. He emphasized the importance of earning the respect of those one hopes to lead and being able to adjust to change. “Nobody starts out as a leader,” he said. He illustrated that point with a story from his freshman year as a University of Tennessee Volunteer. Never expecting to play during his freshman year, he nevertheless found himself being called
Peyton Manning, retired quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos, was the speaker during Freed-Hardeman University’s 52nd Annual Benefit Dinner which grossed almost $1.7 million. Manning was an All-American quarterback at the University of Tennessee. upon to lead the team, which was losing to UCLA at the time. Following the advice of his father, Archie Manning, who had told him to be the leader, he tried a little too hard to rally the
team. After he told them they would score and get back in the game, he was reminded of his lowly stature by the left tackle, who said, “Hey, freshman, shut up and call the play.”
“Leadership isn’t handed to you with a title,” Manning said. “People have to earn the mantle of leadership.” He defined leadership as the ability to influence others. According to the future Hall of Famer, leadership consists of four things: unselfish trust, bold instincts, Herculean effort and giving back. The ability to adapt to changing circumstances is also important, according to Manning. He cited his own comeback season in 2012, following a year’s absence due to a neck injury and subsequent surgery. Joking that he had never been known for his ability to pivot, he described some of the changes he had to make when he returned to the game. Realizing he could no longer do some of the things he used to do, he relied upon other strengths as he learned to lead younger teammates. “Together we won a world championship,” he said. “Passing the Lombardi trophy down the line so teammates could
touch it and put their fingerprints on it validated what we did.” Following Manning’s formal message to the sold-out crowd, he and Wiley engaged in a question and answer session. FHU faculty and staff had submitted questions for Wiley to ask Manning. Prior to Manning’s address, a student group, The Pride of FHU, entertained the audience with a selection of songs chosen to represent portions of Manning’s life. They began with “Boondocks” for his home in Louisiana, moved to “Life in a Northern Town” for Indianapolis, and followed by “Rocky Mountain High” for the time spent in Denver. Finally, out of chronological order but clearly the climactic number, a crowd-pleasing rendition of “Rocky Top” concluded their performance. The annual benefit dinner at FHU is the primary source of scholarship funds for the university.

Unfortunately, too many people adjust who they think they are to conform to who others think they are. This process starts at childhood and often continues throughout one’s life. A classic example of this is a parent telling a young child that they are no good, stupid, or won’t amount to much. Since children are highly impressionable and believe what their parents are telling them, a child’s view of who they think they are corresponds to their parents view.

peated failures may start to think of themselves as a failure. Yet, failure only occurs when someone gives up. So thinking of yourself as a failure causes you to give up, thus ensuring failure. Learn from the past, make necessary adjustments, and keep moving forward. You want to think of yourself as being successful and doing whatever it takes, for as long as it takes, until you achieve your desired results. Who you think you are should be based on who you would like to be. In a perfect world, where anything is possible, what person would you be? The answer to this question directs you to who

Timothy Miller
Timothy Miller, 48, of Booneville died on Thursday, Dec. 8, 2016, at Magnolia Regional Health Center in Corinth. He was born Oct. 27, 1968. Arrangements are pending with Patterson Memorial Chapel.
CHARLESTON, S.C. — Dylann Roof was convicted Thursday in the chilling slaughter of nine black church members who had welcomed him to their Bible study, a devastating crime in a country that was already deeply embroiled in racial tension. The same federal jury that found Roof guilty of all 33 counts will reconvene next month to hear more testimony and weigh whether to sentence him to death. As the verdict was read, Roof just stared ahead, much as he did the entire trial. Family members of victims held hands and squeezed one another’s arms. One woman nodded her head every time the clerk said “guilty.” Roof, 22, told FBI agents he wanted to bring back segregation or perhaps start a race war with the slayings. Instead, the single biggest change to emerge from the June 17, 2015, killings was the removal of the Confederate flag from the South Carolina Statehouse, where it had flown for 50 years over the Capitol or on the grounds. Roof appeared with the flag in several photos in a racist manifesto. The shooting happened just months after Walter Scott, an unarmed black man, was killed by
white police officer Michael Slager when he fled a traffic stop in North Charleston. Police shootings around the county have heightened tensions between black communities and the law enforcement agencies that patrol them, sometimes resulting in protests and riots. In Roof’s confession to the FBI, the gunman said he carried out the killings after researching “black on white crime” on the internet. He said he chose a church because that setting posed little danger to him. Roof told the judge again Thursday that he wanted to act as his own attorney during the penalty phase. He will also face a death penalty trial in state court on nine murder charges. In closing arguments, Assistant U.S. Attorney Nathan Williams mocked Roof for calling himself brave in his hate-filled journal and during his confession, saying the real bravery came from the victims who tried to stop him as he fired 77 bullets at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal church. “Those people couldn’t see the hatred in his heart any more than they could see the .45-caliber handgun and the eight magazines concealed around his waist,” Williams said. Defense lawyer David Bruck con-
ceded Roof committed the slayings, but he asked jurors to look into his head and see what caused him to become so full of hatred, calling him a suicidal loner who never grasped the gravity of what he did. The defense put up no witnesses during the seven-day trial. They tried to present evidence about his mental state, but the judge ruled that it did not have anything to do with Roof’s guilt or innocence. Roof was just imitating what he saw on the internet and believed he had to give his life to “a fight to the death between white people and black people that only he” could see and act on, Bruck said. The prosecutor’s 50-minute closing argument filled the court with tension. At times, the prosecutor raised his voice, saying Roof was a cold, calculated killer. Some family members of victims dabbed their eyes with tissues, and jurors appeared emotional when Williams, after apologizing to them, showed crime scene photos of each person killed alongside a small picture of them while alive. Three people survived the shooting. One survivor, Felicia Sanders, wouldn’t say if she wanted Roof put to death, but said he was a coward because he refused to look at her as she testified.
Trump reveling in win at rally White House suggests Putin BY JONATHAN LEMIRE Associated Press
HERSHEY, Pa. — Donald Trump’s barnstorming tour across the states that won him the White House continues to feature far more taunts of triumph than notes of healing after a bruising election. Thursday’s rally in Hershey, Pennsylvania, found the president-elect calling for the mostly white crowd to cheer for African-Americans who were “smart” to heed his message and therefore “didn’t come out to vote” for his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton. “That was the big thing, so thank you to the African-American community,” Trump said. He also edged closer Thursday to completing his Cabinet, announcing his choice for interior secretary: Montana Rep. Ryan Zinke, who should fit smoothly into an administration favor-
ing more energy drilling and less regulation. The president-elect — who also found time to hit Twitter, playing media critic and then stating anew his doubts about charges that Russia hackers tried to disrupt the U.S. election — boasted to the crowd in Pennsylvania that he captured a state that for many Republicans was “the bride that got away.” “Everyone leaves Pennsylvania, Republicans, thinking they won Pennsylvania. And they never do. They just don’t win Pennsylvania,” said Trump. Pennsylvania had not gone for a Republican candidate since 1988. But the Trump campaign staff long thought that the state, rich in white workingclass voters, would be receptive to his populist message and not be part of Clinton’s hoped-for firewall.

was involved in U.S. hacking BY BRADLEY KLAPPER AND JOSH LEDERMAN Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Obama administration suggested Thursday that Russian President Vladimir Putin personally authorized the hacking of Democratic officials’ email accounts in the run-up to the presidential election and said it was “fact” that such actions helped Donald Trump’s campaign. The White House also assailed Trump himself, saying he must have known of Russia’s interference. No proof was offered for any of the accusations, the latest to unsettle America’s uneasy transition from eight years under Democratic President Barack Obama to a new Republican administration led by Trump. The claims of Russian meddling in the election also have heightened already debilitating tensions between Washington and Moscow over Syria, Ukraine and a host of other disagreements. “Only Russia’s seniormost officials could have authorized these activities,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest said, repeating the words from an October U.S. intelligence assessment. Obama’s deputy national security adviser, Ben Rhodes, connected the dots further, saying it was Putin who was responsible for the Russian government’s actions. “I don’t think things happen in the Russian government of this conse-
quence without Vladimir Putin knowing about it,” Rhodes said on MSNBC. The explosive accusation paints Putin, the leader of perhaps the nation’s greatest geopolitical foe, as having directly undermined U.S. democracy. U.S. officials have not contended, however, that Trump would have been defeated by Hillary Clinton on Nov. 8 if not for Russia’s assistance. Nor has there has been any indication of tampering with the vote-counting. The Kremlin flatly rejected the claim of Putin’s involvement, with Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov dismissing it Thursday as “laughable nonsense.” The dispute over Russia’s role is fueling an increasingly public spat between Obama’s White House and Trump’s team that is threatening to spoil the delicate truce that Obama and Trump have forged since Election Day. Although the president and president-elect have avoided criticizing each other publicly since Trump’s win, their aides have been more openly antagonistic. Kellyanne Conway, Trump’s senior transition adviser, said it was “breathtaking” and irresponsible that the White House had suggested Trump knew Russia was interfering to help his campaign. That led Obama spokesman Josh Earnest on Thursday to unload, arguing that Trump, who has dismissed the CIA’s
assessment of Russian interference, should spend less time attacking the intelligence community and more time supporting the investigation that Obama has ordered. Earnest said it was “obvious” Trump knew what Russia was doing during the campaign, pointing out that Trump had encouraged Moscow during a news conference to find Clinton’s missing emails. Trump has said he was joking. “I don’t think anybody at the White House thinks it’s funny that an adversary of the United States engaged in malicious cyber activity to destabilize our democracy,” Earnest said. “That’s not a joke.” U.S. intelligence officials have linked the hacking to Russia’s intelligence agency and its military intelligence division. Moscow has denied all accusations that it orchestrated the hacking of email accounts of Democratic Party officials and Clinton’s campaign chief, John Podesta, and then leaked them to the anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks. Obama said Thursday that anytime a foreign government tries to interfere in U.S. elections, the nation must take action — “and we will.” “Some of it may be explicit and publicized, some of it may not be,” Obama told NPR News. “But Mr. Putin is well aware of my feelings about this, because I spoke to him directly about it.”

Across the Nation Couple accused of cruelty seek release LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. — A suburban Atlanta couple accused of locking their son in a basement for months at a time are asking to be released from jail and to be given $600,000 per day for each day they’ve been behind bars. The Atlanta JournalConstitution reported Thursday that Therian and Recardo Wimbush sent a joint “plea offer” to Gwinnett County prosecutors, asking that their charges be dropped and for the county to give them what amounts to more than $540 million in “restitutionary redress.” The couple say they’ve been falsely imprisoned since their 2014 arrest after being accused of locking their oldest child in a basement bedroom for as long as two years. Both face multiple child-cruelty charges.
Authorities seize 26 tons of cocaine FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — More than 26 tons of cocaine worth at least $715 million was brought ashore Thursday in Florida following multiple recent seizures by the U.S. Coast Guard and the Royal Canadian Navy in the eastern Pacific. Coast Guard officers said at a news conference Thursday that the drugs brought to Fort Lauderdale came from 27 separate vessel interdictions and five bale recovery operations off Central and South America over the past three months. Pallets containing the drugs, many wrapped in brightly colored plastic and some bearing labels such as “white sugar” or “pork,” covered the entire flight deck of the 418-foot Coast Guard Cutter Hamilton. Vice Admiral Karl Schultz, Coast Guard commander in the Atlantic, said the seizures are part of an effort to target vessels bringing cocaine north by sea from Colombia, Peru and Bolivia before the loads reach land and are divided up into much smaller amounts for smuggling into the U.S. and Canada. Cocaine seizures at sea result in three
times more drugs intercepted than all U.S. land-based law enforcement efforts combined, Shultz added. “When we interdict drugs at sea, they are large quantities,” he said. “That’s kind of the impact of doing this at sea.”
Gunman pleads guilty to killing BLOUNTVILLE, Tenn. — A man who authorities say fatally shot a person and injured four others when he fired his gun at a hotel and at passing cars on a Tennessee highway has pleaded guilty to murder. News outlets report that 37-year-old Lakeem Keon Scott entered the plea to murder and other charges Thursday morning. He was sentenced to life in prison with no possibility of parole for 52 years. The shooting took place on July 7 along a highway in Bristol, which borders Virginia. Authorities said Scott began by shooting at a Days Inn, and then turned his fire toward passing cars. Authorities have said Scott, who is black, was motivated to act in response to police violence against AfricanAmericans. Sullivan County prosecutor Barry Staubus Scott told investigators Scott said he was “tired of seeing my people killed.”
DuPont to pay $50M over dumping RICHMOND, Va. — Chemical giant DuPont would pay around $50 million in a proposed settlement aimed at making up for the toxic mercury that one of its factories released for decades into a Virginia river. State and federal officials announced the deal Thursday to remediate the South and Shenandoah rivers, which were polluted by DuPont’s former plant in Waynesboro. Officials call it the largest environmental damage settlement in Virginia history and the eighth largest in the nation. The company based in Wilmington, Delaware, used mercury to manufacture rayon from around 1929 to 1950. Some of the toxic chemical seeped out and spread downstream.

MILWAUKEE — A Milwaukee police officer who killed a black man in August fired the fatal shot after the man had thrown away his gun, according to court documents released Thursday. The documents reveal for the first time that Dominique HeagganBrown is charged with reckless homicide in the Aug. 13 shooting death of Sylville Smith, which sparked two days of riots. Heaggan-Brown, who is also black, shot Smith following a traffic stop on the city’s north side. According to a criminal complaint, Heaggan-Brown and another officer chased Smith on foot after he fled from the car. The officers’ body cameras show Smith was carrying a semi-automatic pistol. Smith fell, got back to his feet with the gun still in his hand, turned toward the officers and raised the gun, according to the complaint. Heaggan-Brown fired a single shot, striking Smith in the arm. The video shows that Smith then threw his gun over the fence. Heaggan-Brown then shot him in the chest, the complaint says. The two shots occurred in less than two seconds of each other. After the second shot, Smith appeared to reach toward his waistband but the body camera footage shows at the time of the second shot Smith was unarmed.
City pond overloaded with goldfish WILMINGTON, Del. — A Delaware city is spending more than $300,000 to evict thousands of goldfish and restore the pond they took over. Sean Duffy is director of the water division for Wilmington’s Public Works Department. The News Journal quotes him as saying that when officials received a complaint from the pond’s neighbors and checked on the goldfish population, they realized they were “heading toward a catastrophe.” Duffy says the city started draining the pond and removing fish and overgrown plants three weeks ago.

More charges in alleged murder plot COLUMBIA — Three Mississippi men are facing more charges in an alleged murder-for-hire plot against a businessman who serves on the state College Board. WDAM-TV reports 42-year-old Victor Mitchell of Sumrall, 46-year-old Glen Evans of Gulfport and 47-yearold Howard Cameron of Biloxi appeared Thursday in Lamar County Court. Six charges were added for each man: conspiracy to kidnap, attempted kidnapping, conspiracy to commit sexual battery, attempted sexual battery, conspiracy to commit extortion and attempted extortion. Investigators say the target of the alleged plot was Tom Duff of Hattiesburg, who co-owns Duff Capital Investors. Mitchell, Evans and Cameron were arrested Nov. 19 and charged with conspiracy to commit murder. They remain in the Lamar County jail.
Tax collections fall short in November JACKSON — November was a bleak month for Mississippi tax collections. The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports collections were 8.8 percent below the original estimate for the month. Numbers compiled by the Legislative Budget Office show that’s a shortfall of $35.2 million. A single month does not indicate a trend, but collections have been sluggish for an extended period. Through November, the first five months of the current state budget year, revenue collections were 2.5 percent below the amount collected during the same period last year. That’s a decrease of $50.9 million. Gov. Phil Bryant has already ordered one round of spending cuts since the budget year started July 1. Mississippi collected less in corporate tax than it refunded in October and November. The personal income tax and retail sales tax collections are viewed as economic indicators. Despite the sluggish revenue collections, state economist Darrin Webb has said other measurements indicate

Water bottler to open $78M plant BYHALIA — A water bottling company will open a $78 million facility in Marshall County next year, hiring 38 workers. Niagara Bottling, based in Ontario, California, is buying a 554,000-square-foot building in the Chickasaw Trail Industrial Park from Panattoni Development Co. Niagara makes private-label bottled waters, tea and sports drinks for retailers. MDA spokeswoman Tammy Craft says one third of the cost will pay for the building, while Niagara will spend twothirds on machinery and equipment. Craft says the Mississippi Development Authority is giving $400,000 to improve infrastructure and $75,000 for worker training. The Appalachian Regional Commission is providing $200,000 to improve water and sewer infrastructure, while the Tennessee Valley Authority is providing unspecified aid.
County cracks down over high light bills BILOXI — The lights have come back on at a youth soccer complex in Harrison County, but only after county officials taught parents and coaches a tough lesson. WLOX reports lights
used to illuminate the County Farm Soccer Complex after dark were being left on after practices. Worried about high electric bills, county officials locked up access to the switches last week. Russ Carothers, a coach with the South Mississippi Soccer Club, said both parents and coaches responded angrily when practices couldn’t be held after dark. Harrison County Supervisor Angel Middleton said tough action was taken to spare the county from spikes in its electric bill. Carothers says the soccer club agreed to limit the number of volunteers with access to the lights, and they’re being reminded to turn them off.
2 sentenced for fraud linked to spill GULFPORT — A Grand Bay, Alabama, woman and a man from Lafayette, Louisiana, have been sentenced to prison for their role in a conspiracy tied to the 2010 BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. U.S. Attorney Gregory K. Davis, in a news release, said Chief U.S. District Judge Louis Guirola on Wednesday sentenced 34-year-old Thi Houng “Kristy” Le to seven years in prison and a $25,000 fine. He also sentenced 52-yearold Gregory P. Warren to 17 years in prison and a $25,000 fine. Le and Warren were convicted on charges of conspiracy to commit identity theft, aggravated identity theft, mail fraud and wire fraud. Authorities say they fraudulently submitted names of more than 40,000 people in litigation related to the spill.

Rising oil prices and the election of Donald Trump has had a positive effect on the Russian economic outlook.

Schwab & Co., says politics are a minor factor in Russia’s rally. “It’s all about oil,” he says. Oil prices have doubled since hitting bottom at $26.21 a barrel in February — good news for the world’s No. 3 petroleum producer. The International Monetary Fund expects the Russian economy to return to growth next year (a modest 1.1 percent) after contracting 3.7 percent in 2015 and 0.8 percent this year. Kleintop says stock investors wanting to ride rising oil prices should consider energy producer Canada, which has less political baggage.

Market debut
Oil and gas tracker
Investors will get a new opportunity to invest in the online travel industry today when German company Trivago makes its stock market debut. Trivago, which was founded in 2005, allows users to search for hotels and compare rates. Online travel company Expedia has owned a controlling stake in Trivago since 2014. Trivago plans to list its stock on the Nasdaq stock market under the ticker symbol “TRVG.”
Oilfield services company Baker Hughes issues today its latest weekly tally of U.S. oil and natural gas rigs. While depressed energy prices have curtailed exploration, the rig count has been rising in recent weeks. Last week, the number of rigs increased by 27 to 624. That total included 498 rigs exploring for oil and 125 seeking natural gas. One was listed as miscellaneous. The U.S. rig count peaked at 4,530 in 1981. It bottomed out in May at 404.

Mom, daughter jumping the gun with ring shopping D E A R ABBY: My boyfriend and I have been dating for almost eight months. We Abigail love each and Van Buren other talk often about marDear Abby riage, family, etc. The other night -- just for fun -- I looked online at rings and showed my mom a few I really loved. She quickly dismissed all of them, and started telling me how I need a big stone and that it needs to be expensive. Then she went online and looked herself and was telling me which ones I should be interested in. Mom offered to take me to a jeweler’s to find the “perfect” ring. She has always been a helicopter parent, but now, as my boyfriend and I are becoming more serious, she’s going into warp drive. How can I tell her gently to butt out? Also, what’s your advice on the ring situation? -- DAUGHTER OF A HELICOPTER MOM DEAR DAUGHTER: You and your mother are both jumping the gun. “Talking often of marriage, family, etc.” is not an engagement. If you allow your mother to involve herself in this, I predict you will never get en-
gaged because your boyfriend -- if he’s smart -- will run for the hills. When and if you do decide to tie the knot, the two of you should go to a jeweler together and select something he can afford and you will enjoy wearing. Period. DEAR ABBY: I’m a young woman in my 20s. I have been blessed with a loving family, lots of opportunities and people who care about me. My problem is, I don’t feel worthy of any of it. A lot of the time when I’m around people, I feel like I’m on the outside looking in -- like an intruder. When I join groups and listen, I feel like I’m eavesdropping. When I try to pitch in, I feel like I’m annoying everyone. I try to be like people who other people like, but I feel I fall far short of the mark. I wish I could change and be less irritating and more interesting, but I don’t know how to change my personality, or even if I could. I’m just tired of not feeling worthy enough. I know this feeling isn’t rational, but it’s here to stay, apparently. What should I do? -- UNWORTHY DEAR UNWORTHY: There is nothing so defeating to social success than low self-esteem -- feeling undeserving and not good enough. The first thing you should do is stop trying to change yourself to please others because it doesn’t work. Then try to pinpoint where these
feelings of unworthiness originated. If you can’t manage it on your own -- many people can’t -make an appointment to discuss it with a licensed mental health professional. You deserve to feel good about yourself and what you contribute. DEAR ABBY: Years ago, it was considered improper to send a holiday card to a friend or family member who experienced the loss of a child or spouse during the year. What is correct today? And what about an invitation to a party? -- CAREFUL IN CALIFORNIA DEAR CAREFUL: If there was a “rule” that people who have suffered a loss should not receive a holiday card, I have never heard of it. One would think that those who are grieving would appreciate knowing they were being remembered. As to inviting the person to a party -- not everyone grieves in the same way or for the same length of time. Unless religious custom prevents it, if you think the friend or relative might enjoy the event, by all means extend an invitation. The invitee can always refuse if it’s too soon. 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). Avoid personalizing other people’s behaviors by assuming that they are reacting to you. Many factors affect behavior. You may only be a small part of it, but you’ll be a positive part. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). An issue you deal with is not who you are. The less you identify with it the better. Separate yourself from the circumstances. Remind yourself of your good qualities and reinforce what you’re all about. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You probably wouldn’t guess what someone finds attractive about you, but you don’t have to. The more you focus on your strengths, curiosities and interests the bigger your light becomes. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Love and commitment fuse together today. You won’t be sure if you’re doing something because you love it or if you love it because you’re doing it. Either way, it’s a slice of heaven.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Emotional courage is the key to getting the results you want. When you’re willing to deal with uncertainty and embrace the pain that goes along with growing and changing, this is when the transformation you wish for begins. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Some feelings you want to build up, and others you want to feel a lot less of. Suppressing an emotion will only make it stronger. If you want to feel less of a thing, express it. Get it out, and let it diffuse. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The less reactive you are, the better you’ll handle things. The better you handle things, the more someone will admire and like you. The more someone admires and likes you, the higher you’ll be promoted. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The way to tell a great question is by the answers you’re getting. You’ll create an environment of warmth and people will open up to you, giving you exactly what
you want. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The magic question of the day: How do you envision this process working? Ask yourself; ask others. It will get everyone thinking of the practical steps necessary to realize the goal. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You may not wake up filled with a sunshiny spirit. This can still be a happy day. What’s dragging your thoughts into the shadows? Identify the main issue. Confront and conquer. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Sometimes everything feels like a top priority, but of course that’s not how priorities work. Get real about it. What’s the one thing you could do to make the rest fall in line? PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Most people listen to one another with a cursory level of attention. Listening is a muscle. It takes practice to get this muscle in shape. Listen better than others do (not hard), and seize the opportunities they miss.

Corinth and Thrasher earn sweeps BY KENT MOHUNDRO kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com
Corinth and Thrasher both earned splits in their contests Thursday evening, while Tishomingo County was swept at home. (G) New Site 47 Tishomingo County 22 The Lady Royals didn’t make things Kent easy on coach Mohundro Brian Middleton’s TCHS Sports Director squad as they won going away 47-22. The Lady Braves were within five points of New Site at the half after rallying from a 10-point firstquarter deficit. But after outscoring NSHS 11-7 in the second quarter, Tishomingo County could muster but nine total points over the final two periods. “We just couldn’t get anything going offensively to-
night,” said Middleton after watching his team fall to 5-8.”We just couldn’t score after the second quarter. We had a lot of missed opportunities all game long.” Madelyn Griffin paced the Lady Braves with seven points and Morgan Perkins added six. (B) New Site 46 Tishomingo County 45 Braves head coach Craig Dailey is not into moral victories and he’s hoping his team doesn’t consider last night’s close 46-45 loss to New Site to be one. On the eve of playing in the Fed Ex Forum prior to the Memphis Grizzlies/ Sacramento Kings game tomorrow night, TCHS played evenly with a good Royals squad, leading 14-13 at the end of the first quarter. It was the second period that ended up being their undoing as New Site charged back to take a 3325 lead at the break.
“We dug ourselves a hole there in the first half and just weren’t able to climb out, Dailey commented. The Braves rallied to within three points after three quarters but couldn’t get over the hump and now own a 6-7 record heading into their big matchup tomorrow against Heritage Academy in Memphis. Caleb McCalmon led TCHS with 16, followed by Tucker Hill with 11 and Kyle Parrish with 10. (G) Amory 65 Corinth 47 No scoring information was reported but Kristen Herman had a big night for the Lady Warriors as she poured in a game-high 27. (B) Corinth 78 Amory 46 The Warriors earned the split as they completely dominated the Panthers in a Division 1-4A matchup at Corinth. CHS improves to 7-3 overall, 4-0 in division play. “We left a lot of points on
the floor in the first half, but our pressure defense really kicked in and we were able to come up with several steals that led to some easy points for us,” said Warrior coach Keith Greene. Corinth stretched a fourpoint first quarter advantage into a 38-26 halftime lead. From there they turned on the defensive jets and outscored the Panthers 26-7 in the third to grab a 31-point advantage that they never relinquished. Tada Strickland had a monster game, leading the Warriors with 30. Jon D Warren added 10, while Chandler Patterson and Will Gardner chipped in with eight apiece.

Northeast LB Williams signs with Ole Miss BY KENT MOHUNDRO kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com
Wednesday was an absolute bonanza for the Northeast Mississippi Community College football Tigers as nine players signed with four-year colleges. The Tiger with the most interesting story just happens to be a former Alabama high school player who received very little attention from college recruiters. Linebacker Brenden Williams inked his letter of intent to play for head coach Hugh Freeze and the Ole Miss Rebels despite arriving at Northeast as an overlooked 2-star prospect out of Restoration Academy (AL). He came to Booneville after finishing his high school career as a 190-pound wide receiver. But Tigers head coach Greg Davis saw something special in Williams, who grew into a formidable defender who stands 6-3, 225 pounds. He’s listed as a top50 JUCO recruit and fills a primary position of need for the Landshark defense. Williams finished the 2016 campaign with a team-high 89 tackles, ranking him fourth in the state and and tied for 34th nationally in the NJCAA. The Birmingham (AL) native averaged 9.9 tackles per game, leading the state and ranking 17th in the nation in that category. What makes Brenden special is his physicality. Davis and his coaching staff saw the potential and what they had in the new Rebel signee.

Northeast linebacker Brenden Williams is flanked by his mother and father Wednesday as he prepares to sign his National Letter of Intent to play for coach Hugh Freeze and the Ole Miss Rebels next season. He has four years to play three in Oxford. The Rebels saw it too. “This is just a blessing for me,” Williams commented upon signing his scholarship papers.”It’s been a long ridebut it shows what you can do if you remain patient and keep working hard.” “It’s nothing I did; it’s all God’s doing.” Williams’ highlights include a blocked extra point and 13 tackles at Southwest. He later had a career high with 15 stops, including three
for a loss, in a road victory against Mississippi Delta. He amassed 36 tackles over the final three weeks of the season, in which Northeast went 6-3 and was a game away from a state playoff berth. “Brenden has a unique ability to find the football and he loves to hit,” said Davis.”That’s a great combination that’s hard to find. He has shown perseverance and grit every single day. He’s
what I call a competitor.” Williams affirmed his commitment to Ole Miss during the High School Football Networ’s (HSFN) National Signing Day Event Wenesday at the C-Spire corporate headquarters in Jackson. The potential to play early and often was a key reason he signed with the Rebels. And with Freeze reportedly set to hire former defensive assisPlease see WILLIAMS | 11A

Memories change the atmosphere of Christmas Coming across a copy of a story I shared years ago from a farm magazine, I thought it appropriate to retell this Christmas Lora Ann season. In the stoHuff ry, Retha Reece of Clinton, Arkansas, Back Porch told about the best Christmas present she ever received. The 1950’s were hard on the Reece family as Retha was growing up in Missouri. She was in the ninth grade and most of her friends from town were excited about the watches they were expecting to get for Christmas. Retha wanted one, as well, but she knew her parents could not afford it that year. She always asked for only the things she really needed, but this time she did mention to her parents how she would love having a watch. “Maybe one day we can get you one,” Retha’s mother said. When Christmas day was past, the young teenager asked her mother if she was ready to take the tree down. Mom’s reply was, “No, not yet.” Retha knew that was strange, and she looked out the window to see her dad on his tractor, cutting cotton stalks on top of the frozen ground. Thinking that was even more strange, the young girl was puzzled as to why that chore was so urgent in such weather. On New Year’s morning, Retha walked past the Christmas tree and noticed a gold box beneath it. Seeing her name on the box, she hurriedly opened it to find the prettiest Elgin wristwatch her eyes had ever seen. With apologies for being late with the gift, her mom and dad explained that her daddy cut the cotton stalks for the landowner in
order to earn enough money to buy the $12.95 watch! Reading the story, I was reminded of the time my nephew and I helped my mother pick “scrap cotton” (cotton bolls that opened up after the second picking) during our Thanksgiving holiday. As I recall, Tommy and I were not crazy about the idea, but my mother was determined not to leave the white stuff in the field and miss the money that would help pay for Christmas presents. The three of us got the job done, she spent the money on us, and the exercise and good work ethic helped us all! During this season of the year, everyone seems to have special memories to re-visit – some happy and some sad. We try to focus on the happy ones but, at the same time, have to remember that some years things didn’t go the way we wanted. Maybe there was an illness, a loss, a family member away in the military, something that changed the entire atmosphere and spirit of Christmas. As I remember some such holidays in my past, my heart goes out to several families who are going through tough experiences this year. Hearts are hurting and homes are adjusting to situations that were not welcome. Tough “things” happened without regard for the holiday season. So let’s pray for each other, reach out to each other, try to brighten each other’s days and create pleasant memories to look back on. Some day when our stories are told, maybe there will be a bright spot like Retha’s watch that outshines whatever disappointment that was experienced in 2016. Our God is faithful and will provide what is needed if we rest in Him.
Hiding inside your shell will eventually become your demise My wife and I do seatbelt observations for the “Click It or Ticket It Gary Campaign” Andrews in our home state. As we Devotionals sit by the side of the road we notice many interesting people. We are there to check for seat belt usage and cell phone usage, however on many occasions, we can almost see the personality of that driver as they go past us. Not many people recognize what we are doing because they are in a hurry, they have other things on their mind, and they are talking with their passenger or on their phone or other reasons. The ones that do recognize what we are doing will put their seat belt on, if they don’t have it on already, or simply smile and wave. I remember one day, it was kind of slow that day that a turtle had crawled into the street. Maybe its destination was getting to the other side to which had trees, grass, and was kind of a marsh type environment. I can only imagine that the turtle was headed to a better place and leaving the side of the road that was only hot pavement and concrete sidewalks. I was amazed as I watched the turtle inch its

Jesus Christ is the only protection that we can count on. What we have on earth will perish but if we know Jesus personally we will experience eternal life. way across the road and when a car or truck would pass by, it would cover itself with its shell until it felt safe again to move forward. Many of us in the world today act just as this turtle did. When we see things that we don’t like or we see something that is potentially harmful to us, we will go into our protective shell until the problem has passed us by. We find ourselves not wanting to face everyday issues and would rather hide in our shell and let someone else handle the problem. As we travel down life’s
roadway we are going to experience many people that are sensitive to our needs and will either go around us or stop to help us. We are going to come face to face with people that don’t care about anyone but themselves and they will not notice you and hurt you if you let them. We are a lot like the turtle. We feel that we have earthly protectors that will keep us away from harm and not realize that Jesus Christ is the only protection that we can count on. What we have on earth will perish but if we know Jesus personally we will experience eternal life. We need to also remember the famous quote of Will Rogers, “Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.” The turtle was headed to a better environment but sat in the middle of the road several minutes. The drivers with a caring and watchful eye would notice it and avoid running over it, however one person drove by that was so preoccupied with her phone and texting that she ran over the turtle and never knew it. All of us need to realize that hiding in our earthly shells brings us certain death but trusting in Jesus as our Lord and Savior provides us with eternal life. Prayer: Thank you Lord for allowing me to know you personally and thank you for the reassurance of your protection and promise of eternal life. Amen.

Election arguments cause sisters trouble WIZARD OF ID
DILBERT
GARFIELD
FORT KNOX
PICKLES
Dear Annie: I’ll try to keep this nonpartisan and just give you the bare essentials. My sister and I are both in our late 50s. She’s only two years younger than I am, and we grew up extremely close. We went to college together and made sure never to move too far away from each other or our parents afterward. But she is a member of one major political party, and I’m a member of the other one. The presidential election caused a big strain on our relationship. I thought things would get better after Election Day, but they’ve actually gotten even worse. She’s unwilling to compromise and see my point of view, and to be honest, I can’t see her point of view, either. Before the campaign season started (a year and a half ago), we talked on the phone at least three times a week. Now we haven’t talked in two weeks, and I’m worried the distance between us will just continue to grow. I keep thinking I should swallow my pride and tell her she’s right on a few points (even though I don’t believe it) just to smooth things over. But I can’t bring myself to do it. Will we ever be as close as we were? — Family Divided Dear Family: This
Dear Annie election year has done a number on many families. Based on what I’ve heard from other readers, the disagreement you and your sister are having is happening at tables all across the nation. It’s entirely possible — healthy, even — to love someone who has different opinions. You eliminate a lot of frustration once you realize that yelling never changed anybody’s mind. Embrace the relief that comes with agreeing to disagree. That said, I’m sure that if you two made a list of all the things you have in common, it would be much longer than the list of all the things you don’t. You’re just obsessing over the latter. Remember: You were sisters long before you even knew what a Democrat or Republican is. Give her a call today, and talk about your children, your health, a good book you’re reading — anything but politics. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Between a
Rock and a Hard Place in Ohio,” whose 13-year-old daughter was invited to a birthday party at the mall. A four-hour unchaperoned mall birthday party for 13-year-olds? The invited girl’s mother’s concern was legitimate. I would like to point out that many malls (at least in my area) do not allow anyone younger than 18 to wander freely in the mall without parental supervision, for good reason. A more organized party should have been planned by the birthday girl’s mother, perhaps with a meal at a designated mall restaurant and an hour of shopping and/or a movie afterward. That would have been more responsible. What was the mother thinking? And as far as supervision goes, I once walked into a tea shop and watched two girls of about that same age helping themselves to endless cups of tea while other shoppers were on standby for a sample to be provided by the hostess. The supervising adult was present but outside the store on her smartphone and oblivious to what was going on — and she most likely didn’t care. Parents, please wake up! — A Daily Reader Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.
