The Corinth Professionals’ next “Lunch and Learn” event will provide an opportunity for networking and a chance to learn what everyone should know about preparing for emergencies at home or work.

Scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 21, at Northeast Mississippi Community College’s Corinth campus, the event will feature an emergency preparedness session with NEMCC Workforce Trainer Shelia Archer.

“I think it’s very important for people to attend this session to learn about an important topic — especially as we’re going into the extreme weather season,” said Andrea Rose, community development director for the Alliance.

According to the National Weather Service, the season for severe weather in Northeast Mississippi begins around Valentine’s Day and continues through mid-August.

The Corinth Professionals formed as the Corinth Young Professionals in May of 2011.

Members recently decided to change the name in order to to be more inclusive and make sure all area professionals feel welcome.

The group’s purpose is to provide local professionals a chance to network and build their business base — as well as socialize and have a good time.

The group meets monthly, usually on a Thursday eve-

District 2 Rep. Nick Bain said he will not support a bill that would require all school boards in Mississippi to be elected by the voters.

“I’m not going to support it,” said Bain. “We’ve got a good system both in Alcorn County and Corinth, and I don’t see the need to change something that’s working.”

In the Senate, the Senate Education Committee passed SB 2141 on Tuesday, a bill that mandates all board members to run for four-year terms beginning at the 2016 presidential election. The races would be nonpartisan.

The Senate bill will soon go to the House Education Committee, where it may see changes before going to the House floor.

A similar bill recently worked its way through the House Education Committee. The bill, which passed by a slim margin, would not require the Corinth school board to hold elections.

Bain said he does not believe a bill will become law that makes every school board in the state be elected.

On Thursday the Corinth Board of Aldermen formally stated its opposition to the possibility of all school boards in Mississippi being elected.

Ward 1 Alderman Andrew Labas said the Corinth system has worked well for 50 years and there is no need to penalize a municipality for something that is working well.

... Liquor makes return to Corinth

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

For the first time since the liquor-beer swap of 1989, liquor was legally sold again in Corinth for the first time on Friday.

Corinth Wine & Spirits at 3113 Shiloh Road is the first of the city’s 15 liquor license applicants to begin sales. The store opened late Friday after hustling to get everything in place.

After turning away customers all day long, sales were brisk when the doors finally opened. By Saturday morning a sign hung on the door announcing it would reopen by 2 p.m. to allow time for restocking after the massive crowds they saw Friday evening.

“We are excited to be the first store to open,” said Kathryn Lee, owner with husband Allan.

Corinth Wine & Spirits became the first liquor store in Corinth to open for business.

From a business standpoint, she said they were hopeful to be first out of the gate.

Lee said she is hearing much enthusiasm for the return of liquor, including a lot of feedback from people in neighboring areas of Tennessee. She

Ole Miss’ first black student to speak in Corinth

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

James Meredith, the first black Ole Miss student, has added Corinth to his upcoming visit to northeast Mississippi.

Meredith will speak at St. Mark Missionary Baptist Church at 1000 Scott St. at 6 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 21.

He is also scheduled to visit the Corinth Library for a book signing at 3 p.m. the same day. His memoir, “A Mission from God,” was published last year.

St. Mark Pastor Kim Ratliff said the entire community is invited to attend. Meredith recently contacted the pastor and requested an opportunity to speak in Corinth.

“He stated to me how driven he still feels to speak not only about racial reconciliation but also progress, education and issues that are important not only to the whole community but also young African-Americans who need to focus on education and improvement.”

“He doesn’t wear race on his sleeve — that’s the impression I get from him.”

Kim Ratliff Pastor, St. Mark Missionary Baptist Church

The program will include music by the St. Mark choir and a welcome from the community.

Ratliff is looking forward to the message from the historic figure.

“He doesn’t wear race on his sleeve — that’s the impression I get from him,” he said.

The following day, Meredith will be at Tishomingo County High School for a history and unity program to speak about his ideas for improving Mississippi’s education system. It begins at 10 a.m. Feb. 22

in the school gymnasium.

Last year, the 79-year-old Kosciusko native traveled throughout the state on a “Walk for Education & Truth” to encourage black students to get prepared for college.

“A lot of things have changed in Mississippi, but in many ways they’ve made things much worse,” Meredith told the Daily Corinthian last year. “I graduated high school 61 years ago. Then, every black high school graduate could go to some good college in America. Today, less than one out of 10 goes to college because they don’t make high enough on the entrance exam.”

He became part of a defining civil rights moment when he enrolled at the University of Mississippi in 1962.

Man charged with making fake $20 bills

BY ANGELA STOREY astorey@dailycorinthian.com

A Prentiss County resident has been arrested after being accused of passing counterfeit money in Booneville.

Kenny Joe Lindley, 18, of 67-B County Road 2121, Booneville, was arrested Feb. 2, on a one count of possession of counterfeit bank notes

and four counts of uttering a counterfeit bank note, said Booneville Police Chief Michael Ramey.

“It appears Lindley passed counterfeit money to three different businesses in town over the weekend,” he said.

The police chief said Lindley admitted making the $20 bills.

A juvenile was also charged with one count possession of counterfeit bank notes and four counts uttering a counterfeit bank note.

He was released to the custody of his parents and will have a hearing in youth court.

Located next to Kroger, it will be one of the larger package stores.

“We will have about 800 different wines on day one,” he said. “With spirits, we will probably have 600 or 700.”

A veteran of the business, Gary Briggs, will open Wholesale Liquor in the old Wonder Bread store on Cass Street Wednesday morning.

“I’ve been up night and day. It’s been a rat race,” he said.

Briggs has had his

state in 1969 and 1970, edging out a store in Jackson that was operated by a friend.

At the time, thriving industry in Corinth was a big boon to the new liquor business, he said.

In addition to keeping the tax dollars at home, he believes the return of liquor and wine sales will be good for consumers by cutting the gasoline expense of driving out of town to make purchases and by paying less sales tax than they would at Tennessee or Alabama liquor stores.

The last couple of weeks have brought just one additional license

applicant — Shiloh Ridge Hospitality, LLC, for an on-premises retailer permit at the Chop House — for a total of 15 applicants in the city, including eight package stores, six dining establishments and one fraternal organization.

The sale of alcoholic beverages by permitted retailers became legal Feb. 1 as the result of voter approval in December’s special election stemming from the new state law affecting cities of a certain size located in dry counties.

Package stores may open for business Monday through Saturday.

On Feb. 10, 1763, Britain, Spain and France signed the Treaty of Paris, ending the Seven Years’ War (also known as the French and Indian War in North America).

On this date: In 1840, Britain’s Queen Victoria married Prince Albert of SaxeCoburg and Gotha.

In 1841, Upper Canada and Lower Canada were proclaimed united under an Act of Union passed by the British Parliament.

In 1933, the first singing telegram was introduced by the Postal Telegram Co. in New York.

In 1942, the former French liner Normandie capsized in New York Harbor a day after it caught fire while being refitted for the U.S. Navy. RCA Victor presented Glenn Miller and his Orchestra with a “gold record” for their recording of “Chattanooga Choo Choo,” which had sold more than 1 million copies.

In 1949, Arthur Miller’s play “Death of a Salesman” opened at Broadway’s Morosco Theater with Lee J. Cobb as Willy Loman.

In 1962, the Soviet Union exchanged captured American U-2 pilot Francis Gary Powers for Rudolf Abel, a Soviet spy held by the United States. Republican George W. Romney announced his ultimately successful candidacy for governor of Michigan.

In 1967, the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, dealing with presidential disability and succession, was ratified as Minnesota and Nevada adopted it.

In 1968, U.S. figure skater Peggy Fleming won America’s only gold medal of the Winter Olympic Games in Grenoble, France.

In 1981, eight people were killed when a fire set by a busboy broke out at the Las Vegas Hilton hotel-casino.

STARKVILLE — Mississippi State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine invites youths with interests in animals and veterinary medicine to apply for a summer camp.

MSU Veterinary Camp will provide a hands-on experience to youths aged 13 to 15.

Campers will participate in interactive labs and learn about veterinary medicine from CVM instructors. Students considering a career in veterinary medicine, scientific research or an animal-related field are encouraged to apply.

“The sessions will introduce campers to everything from anatomy and microbiology to radiology and physical exams,” said Tori Hall, camp founder and CVM student. “They’ll learn about a wide variety of career options from small- to large- animal, public health to pathology and research topet-

health veterinarians.

Most importantly, those involved are going to have a great time.”

Current CVM students will serve as camp counselors, and participants will get a firsthand look at life as a veterinary student.

Interested youths can apply to attend one of two camp sessions: an overnight camp June 6-8 or a day camp June 13-15.

The registration fee is $500 for the overnight session and $200 for the day camp.

Both fees include accommodations, meals (lunch only for the day camp session), a scrub top and all lab activities. A limited number of need-based scholarships are available.

Space is very limited, and qualified applicants are encouraged to review the application instructions and information at http://www. msuvetcamp.com. All applications must be postmarked by March 1.

Thursday deadlines loom for bills in state legislature

BY CLAYTON STANLEY Columnist

With the committee deadline behind them, legislators spent this past week taking up the bills on the floor of the House and the Senate. Members have until Thursday to debate legislation on the floor of each chamber.

Like the committee deadline last Tuesday, bills that do not get voted on in the originating chamber by Thursday will die.

This week several pieces of legislation appeared that had locals paying attention.

Senate Bill 2141 is an education bill that would require that all school board members be elected. This bill was introduced to complement SB2199, which would require that all school superintendents be appointed by the school board. Electing the school board is intended to be a compromise to those districts that would lose the right to elect the superintendent. The unintended consequences of this legislation would have a significant impact on the Corinth School District and others that already have an appointed superintendent.

In the Corinth School District, school board members are appointed by the city's aldermen to fill five-year staggered terms. Under the current method voters do have a say in the process through the elected aldermen, and this system insulates the school board position from becoming a politically charged popularity contest. The current method also provides continuity through staggered terms.

The proposed Senate language would change this requiring that all board members be up for election at the same time to serve four year terms, greatly politicizing the position.

Changing the superintendent position from elected to appointed would be a great improvement to the Mississippi education system. Nationwide only 146 school superintendents are elected, 65 of which are in Mississippi. However the local impact of 2141 is believed by many to be a step backward for the Corinth district that has functioned quite well since its inception.

Another bill with some interest locally is HB523. This language would allow the voters of any municipality the option to hold an election to increase local sales tax to fund specified infrastructure projects. This is an option that is being considered as city officials in Corinth and around the state struggle with how to maintain and improve an aging infrastructure system.

After the unsuccessful Future Fare election last year, Mayor Tommy Irwin and the board have pursued this as a possible alternative for the city.

The fact that this bill made it out of committee was a surprise to most, and its future before the full House appears to be dim. Regardless of the outcome this year, this issue appears to be one that is not going away. Passing legislation is often a slow process requiring several years of education and familiarization before a bill is ultimately passed. The introduction of the bill this year could be the start, should city leaders from around the state decide to stick with it.

Federal government shouldn’t define ‘church’ Under pressure from religious and conservative groups, the Obama administration has offered another compromise on the issue of birth control coverage within the Affordable Care Act. While exempting churches and some religiously affiliated institutions, such as hospitals and universities, from supplying the coverage, the new proposal calls for their employees to receive stand-alone private insurance policies providing birth control coverage at no cost. Insurance companies will foot the bill, but only the naive can possibly think the cost won’t find its way back to the institution in the form of higher health premiums.

Numerous lawsuits filed against this and other portions of “Obamacare” will proceed and for good reason: the federal government seems intent on setting rules on matters of conscience and worse, defining what constitutes a church, or religious institution.

One of the litigants is Hobby Lobby, a chain of craft stores, whose CEO, David Green, is an evangelical Christian. Green says, “We simply cannot abandon our religious beliefs to comply with this mandate.”

That mandate includes, in addition to contraceptive

Sounds Offs need to be submitted with a name, address, contact phone number and if possible, e-mail address, for author verification.

Amendment, which state “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...” and appears to put the state in the position of supreme authority and arbiter of what constitutes “legitimate” religious faith and practice. The Supreme Court will likely have to resolve its constitutionality.

Permit me to offer the justices some assistance.

The early church was not a building with a towering steeple. The early church met in homes. If one accepts New Testament teaching (and what higher authority on the church could there be?), the concept of the church being an organism that resides in each individual believer is clearly spelled out in several passages.

Paul the Apostle writes in his letter to the Colossians (1:24) about the “body” of Jesus Christ, “which is the church.” By this, he means the “body of believers” in whom Christ dwells. Wherever that body is, whether an individual, or a group of believers, that’s the church.

It was only later that this concept of church was turned into something with expensive buildings, tax exemptions and denominations.

The same theme can be

found in Revelation where John is asked by Jesus to write letters to several churches. Those, too, were bodies of believers, not physical structures.

In the Old Testament, God told Solomon that while He was too big to live in buildings, He would “dwell” in the Temple Solomon built for Him. Ultimately, though, He said He had other intentions: “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts.

I will be their God, and they will be my people.” (Jeremiah 31:33) That was and remains for believers the authentic church, so when people say, “I am going to church,” it is an impossibility because they can’t go to themselves.

The administration’s efforts to effectively gerrymander lines between what it considers legitimate religious practice and the secular is what the Founders hoped to avoid when they linked the establishment clause with the free exercise clause.

That is why, among other reasons, government should not mandate birth control coverage as part of any national health care plan.

(Readers may e-mail Daily Corinthian columnist Cal Thomas at tmseditors@tribune.com.)

Administration’s ‘white paper’: Cheney’s revenge

Prayer for today Lord God, help each of us to find our way of serving you so we can make music that de-

coverage in employees’ health care, “preventive services,” including “morning-afCal ter” pills and Thomas other drugs, which Green Columnist c o n s i d e r s abortifacients. After Hobby Lobby’s appeal to Justice Sonia Sotomayor was rejected, the Christian Post reports the company then made plans to “...shift the beginning of its employee health plan to temporarily avoid $1.3 million a day in fines for each day since Jan. 1 that it did not comply with the Affordable Care Act.” (According to the new health care law, businesses with more than 50 employees that refuse to comply can be fined by the IRS $100 per day per employee.) Hobby Lobby’s appeals continue.

The core issue as I see it — and there are others — is whether the government has the right to define a church as a building in which people congregate on Sundays and whether a private company headed by a religious person qualifies for conscience exemptions. For government to decide such things violates the establishment and free exercise clauses of the First

Will the author of the Obama administration white paper on killing U.S. citizens please report for his war-crimes trial right away?

If he served in the George W. Bush administration, someone would already be agitating for his extraordinary rendition to The Hague. The white paper outlines why the Obama administration believes that it can kill U.S. citizens involved in al-Qaida without due process. This is not a merely theoretical question, as Anwar al-Awlaki found out from the business end of a Hellfire missile a couple of years ago in Yemen.

The left is still furious that the Bush administration waterboarded three captured terrorists after Sept.

11, 2001. Yet, with a few exceptions, it has blithely accepted the Obama administration’s extrajudicial assassination policy that has killed about 1,000 times as many people.

During the Bush years, a small army of former Democratic officials, law professors, op-ed writers and bloggers blasted the Bush administration as dangerous and un-American for assert-

ing the executive branch’s war powers, aka “trampling the Constitution.”

Barack Rich Obama was Lowery going to be different. We National Review had this on the highest possible authority: Barack Obama. As a senator in 2007, he set out his contrasting vision: “We will again set an example for the world that the law is not subject to the whims of stubborn rulers, and that justice is not arbitrary.”

In a speech as president in 2009, he said we must fight al-Qaida. “But,” he added, pointedly, “we must do so with an abiding confidence in the rule of law and due process; in checks and balances and accountability.”

The white paper outlines how that looks like in practice. If an “informed, highlevel official” of the Obama administration determines that a U.S. citizen is one of the “senior operational leaders” of al-Qaida and “recently” involved in “activities” related to a violent

attack against the United States, well then, he can be terminated with extreme prejudice.

Note that the high-level official has to be “informed.”

This must be what Obama meant when he insisted his policies would respect “due process” and “checks and balances.”

They rarely say what their alternative would be. Does a U.S. citizen get an exemption from targeting if he becomes a high-level al-Qaida operative? Should his status be litigated before he can be targeted, and if so, by whom, for how long and on the basis of what evidence?

Can he show up in court to confront his accusers, a basic element of the AngloAmerican system?

It is self-evidently absurd.

Civil libertarians lament that the argument of the white paper parallels the reasoning of the Bush administration. No kidding.

It’s not for nothing that the author sounds like he could have worked for Dick Cheney. The Obama administration’s approach reflects the logic of the laws of war, the structure of American government and the exi-

gencies of the fight against al-Qaida.

It is well-established by the courts that an American citizen who is an enemy combatant can be treated as an enemy combatant. It is also well-established by the courts that it is not the role of the judiciary to interfere in the executive branch’s conduct of a war. When an American citizen joins a shadowy band at war with America and operating in areas beyond the reach of law enforcement, he is a legitimate target.

This is not to say that the white paper is beyond reproach, or that it should have been kept secret for so long, but the basic point would seem obvious.

Democratic partisans might be confused. They considered Bush a threat to America’s liberty because of his defense of his war powers, yet their hero now stands on similar ground. How to resolve the contradiction?

Easy. Conclude that they were wrong the first time.

Northeast digs out after snowstorm BOSTON — A howling storm across the Northeast left the New York-toBoston corridor shrouded in 1 to 3 feet of snow Saturday, stranding motorists on highways overnight and piling up drifts so high that some homeowners couldn’t get their doors open. More than 650,000 homes and businesses were left without electricity.

At least three deaths in the U.S. were blamed on the wind-whipped snowstorm, including that of a New York man killed when the tractor he was using to plow his driveway ran off the edge of the road.

More than 38 inches of snow fell in Milford, Conn., and an 82 mph gust was recorded in nearby Westport. Areas of southeastern Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New Hampshire got at least 2 feet of snow, with more falling. Portland, Maine, received 29.3 inches, breaking the record set in 1979.

Roads in many places were impassable. Across much of New England, snowed-over cars looked like white blobs. Streets were mostly deserted save for snowplow crews and a few hardy souls walking dogs or venturing out to take pictures. In Boston’s Financial District, the only sound was an army of snowblowers clearing sidewalks.

The digging-out went more smoothly in some places than in others.

A little more than 11 inches fell in New York, but the city “dodged a bullet” and was “in great shape,” Mayor Michael Bloomberg said, predicting streets would be cleared by the end of the day. The New York region’s three major airports — LaGuardia, Kennedy and Newark, N.J. — were up and running again by late morning after shutting down the evening before.

But hundreds of motorists abandoned their vehicles on New York’s Long Island, which got 2½ feet of snow, and even snowplows were getting stuck. Emergency workers used snowmobiles to try to reach stranded motorists, some of whom spent the night in their cars.

Richard Ebbrecht, a chiropractor, left his office in Brooklyn at 3 p.m. on Friday and head for his home in Middle Island, N.Y., but got stuck six or seven times on the Long Island Expressway and other roads.

“There was a bunch of us Long Islanders. We were all helping each other, shoveling, pushing,” he said. He finally gave up and settled in for the night in his car just two miles from his destination. At 8 a.m., when it was light out, he walked home.

“I could run my car and keep the heat on and listen to the radio a little bit,” he said. “It was very icy under my car. That’s why my car is still there.”

Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut closed roads to all but essential traffic.

The Interstate 95 corridor from the New York metropolitan area to Boston, with a population of roughly 25 million, appeared to take the brunt of the storm. One of hardest-hit places was Connecticut, where even emergency responders found themselves stuck on highways all night. In Fairfield, police and firefighters could not come in to work, so the overnight shift stayed on.

Lawmakers test legal waters for drones WASHINGTON — Lawmakers are considering whether Congress should set up a special court to decide when drones can kill American al-Qaida suspects overseas, much as a secret court now grants permission for surveillance.

The effort, after CIA Director-designate John

State Briefs

Brennan’s vigorous defense of a drone attack that killed U.S. citizens, reflects a philosophical struggle in government over remote warfare.

The chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Dianne Feinstein of California, spelled it out at the start of Brennan’s confirmation hearing on Thursday. She declared that she intended to review proposals for “legislation to ensure that drone strikes are carried out in a manner consistent with our values and the proposal to create an analogue of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to review the conduct of such strikes.”

And Sen. Angus King Jr., in a letter Friday to senior leaders of the panel, suggested an “independent process - similar to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court - to provide an appropriate check on the executive branch’s procedure for determining whether using lethal force in a foreign country against a U.S. citizen would be lawful.”

In FISA proceedings, 11 federal judges review wiretap applications that enable the FBI and other agencies to gather evidence to build cases.

Suspects have no lawyers present, as they would in other U.S. courts, and the proceedings are secret.

The government presents its case to a judge, who issues a warrant or not.

The notion of something similar for drone strikes drew immediate criticism from human rights and legal groups, which contend that such a court must allow the accused to mount a defense.

“It’s not about evidence gathering, it’s about punishment to the point of execution,” said Mary Ellen O’Connell, professor of international law at the University of Notre Dame and a critic of the government’s drone program. “We have never thought people could be executed without some kind of trial.”

Gholar, an alleged gang member nicknamed “Head,” was charged with buying two of the guns — an M16 assault rifle and a shotgun — for $120 and an ounce of marijuana. He was sentenced on Jan. 23 to nearly four years.

Eatmon awaits sentencing, though court records did not give a date. Eatmon was charged on state charges with kidnapping, raping and shooting a woman while on bond in the guns case.

Trial delay sought in school threat case OXFORD — A lawyer wants to delay the trial of a man accused of making online threats to attack Oxford High School.

Joshua Brandon Pillault is scheduled for trial on Feb. 25 in U. S. District Court in Oxford.

He has pleaded not guilty.

Pillault is accused of making the threats while playing the online game “Runescape.” His lawyer wants more time to prepare.

Court documents say he made references to an attack on Oxford High School, where he is a former student.

The indictment says he mentioned acquiring guns, ammunition magazines, Molotov cocktails, and pipe bombs and using them to level the school.

Pillault underwent a psychiatric evaluation and the report was submitted to the court, but it was sealed.

Retired court of appeals Judge Myers dies JACKSON — Retired Judge William Myers, who served on the Mississippi Court of Appeals and was the Gulf Coast chancery judge who oversaw Mississippi’s landmark lawsuit against the tobacco industry, has died.

Myers, of Ocean Springs, died Thursday.

He was 71. The Court of Appeals announced his death in a news release Friday.

Myers was remembered by former colleagues as a kind man.

“I am honored to have served with Judge Myers during his entire tenure on the court,” Mississippi Court of Appeals Chief Judge L. Joseph Lee said. “He was always pleasant, kindhearted and genuinely cared for all, and was well loved by everyone on the court.”

In June 2000, thenGov. Ronnie Musgrove appointed Myers to the Court of Appeals; he was later elected to the post twice, retiring on Dec. 31, 2011.

“Judge Myers performed his duties with dignity, timeliness and scholarship. His pleasant demeanor and sense of humor will be missed by all,” said Mississippi Supreme Court Chief Justice Bill Waller Jr.

Sentencing date set in stolen FBI guns case HATTIESBURG — A man convicted on a charge of theft of government property related to several guns and other equipment stolen from an FBI agent’s car will be sentenced March 19.

Court records say that Christopher Ryan Burkett will be sentenced in U.S. District Court in Hattiesburg.

Burkett was charged in the case with Cameron Undrae Eatmon and Glenn Eddie Gholar.

Prosecutors say Eatmon broke into the car in Hattiesburg on June 6, took a submachine gun, assault rifle, shotgun and other equipment.

He allegedly gave the guns to Burkett. Authorities say Burkett spread the weapons out on his bed, took a cellphone

CLINTON — Clinton Public School District officials say an Eastside Elementary school student took a gun onto campus Friday, but no one was injured.

District spokeswoman Sandi Beason says the gun was discovered Friday afternoon when the student showed it to another child, who then reported it to the school.

The school has classes for fourth and fifthgraders. She did not know whether the gun was loaded.

Local police are investigating. Certified police officers work on the school campuses in Clinton, a suburb of Jackson.

State law says any student with a gun, knife or other weapon on campus can be expelled. The student also has the right to appeal the expulsion.

In addition to his judicial duties, Myers was active in his community. He was at one time the president of the Mississippi Gulf Coast YMCA, a member of the American Legion and the Masons, and was named Outstanding Citizen of Ocean Springs in 1981. He was a graduate of Mississippi State University and the University of Mississippi School of Law. He also served in the U.S. Army from 1964 to 1966, where he earned the Army Commendation Medal.

Bradford O’Keefe Funeral Home says services are set for noon Monday at St. Paul United Methodist Church in Ocean Springs, with burial in Biloxi National Cemetery.

Myers was in private law practice 23 years before becoming a chancery court judge on the Gulf Coast in July 1992, a job he held until moving to the Court of Appeals.

Corinth Mayor Tommy Irwin presents Amelia Parkes, community educator at S.A.F.E., Inc. with a proclamation stating that Corinth recognizes February as Dating Violence Awareness month.

The Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security will partner with Donate Life Tennessee to designate February as Show Us Your Heart! month. Over the course of the month, select driver service centers will distribute chocolate hearts to customers who check “Yes” to join the state’s organ and tissue donor registry.

“We are pleased to join Donate Life Tennessee in the Show Us Your Heart! campaign,” Michael Hogan, director of driver services, said. “As thousands of Tennesseans wait for a lifesaving transplant, we hope people will take notice and take action to sign up to be an organ, eye and tissue donor.”

Currently only 35 percent of Tennessee’s licensed drivers have said “Yes” to organ and tissue donation, and documented their decision on the Tennessee Donor Registry. Donate Life America and each state is striving for a national average of 50 percent of licensed drivers to be listed on state organ and tissue registries.

“Our ongoing partnership with the Department of Safety and Homeland Security is a key in saving more lives through transplantation,” Lisa Clark, the department’s liaison with

Mary Sue Heyer

Donate Life Tennessee said. “The driver license process is the easiest and best opportunity for residents to legally document their decision to be a donor on the Tennessee Donor Registry.”

Over 117,000 people are currently on the national waiting list for a lifesaving transplant. Of that figure, more than 2,500 live in Tennessee.

In an effort to educate the public and call attention to the great need for donors, Donate Life Tennessee representatives and volunteers will be located in various driver license service centers throughout the state during February providing information to customers.

Tennesseans can register to be an organ donor by simply Checking Yes when applying for or renewing their driver’s license or state identification card. A red heart is placed on the driver license and ID, signifying them as an organ donor.

For more information on organ and tissue donation visit www.DonateLifeTn.org or call toll free 1-877-552-5050.

The Donate Life Registry assures that all personal information is kept confidential and stored in a secure database, accessible only to authorized OPO personnel.

For more information, please contact Lisa Clark at 865-250-1950 or lclark@dcids.org.

of sealants, referral for treatment and dental education not only make a child healthier, they can prevent more expensive health care costs later in life.”

“We know early intervention and dental health education have two important dividends: helping more people keep their natural teeth and avoiding more costly restorative dental care,” said TDH Com-

missioner John Dreyzehner, MD. “A small investment of time in daily dental health care can make significant differences for children. As many dentists will tell you, you only need to brush and floss the teeth you want to keep.”

In Tennessee, 33.7 percent of adults aged 65 and older have had all their teeth extracted, compared to 17 percent nationwide. While there

are many contributing factors to that statistic, among the most significant are poor early oral health habits and the lack of dental health services and information early in life.

In addition to the School Based Dental Prevention Program, TDH has 55 dental clinics located in 54 counties. These clinics provide comprehensive care for children and

emergency dental services for adults. Because some patients are not reached early enough, many teeth are not able to be saved. In 2012, more than 3,900 extractions were performed in TDH clinics. The TDH Oral Health Services program estimates every dollar spent on preventing early childhood cavities saves between $300 and $3,000. Find contact information for TDH

The Keep America Beautiful/U.S. State Department of Transportation Partner Awards recognizes state DOTs for their support of KAB affiliates through joint partnership projects. These awards were created to recognize the high value KAB places on public-private partnerships.

“To reduce roadside litter and illegal dumping, KAB state affiliates must develop effective public-private partnerships,” said Keep America Beautiful President & CEO Matt McKenna.

As an extension of its sponsorship with the National FFA Foundation, Tractor Supply Company has recently announced a new scholarship program to assist FFA members in their pursuit of a college degree.

The Growing Scholars program will be supported nationally by each of the more than 1,150 Tractor Supply stores, including the Corinth location on Highway 72, Feb. 1524, which includes National FFA Week. Tractor Supply customers can donate $1 at store registers during the checkout process to support local FFA chapters and their members. Ninety percent of funds raised through Tractor Supply’s Growing Scholars program will be utilized to fund scholarships for FFA members.

The remaining 10 percent of donations will benefit state FFA organizations. “This program will provide critical funding to FFA members who intend to pursue a college degree and local FFA chapters that enrich the lives of

young members by teaching life skills, citizenship and leadership qualities,� said Tractor Supply President and CEO Greg Sandfort. “For us, this is an outstanding way to support our current and future customers and future team members and a way to give back to the 1,100-plus unique communities we serve.�

To be eligible for the scholarship, students must be current FFA members and either high school seniors or a freshman, sophomore or junior college student seeking a two- or four-year degree or other specialized training program.

Major areas of study will also be considered when determining scholarship recipients. “We are extremely grateful to Tractor Supply and its customers for supporting FFA, student and alumni members and agriculture education in general,� said National FFA Foundation Executive Director Robert K. Cooper.

In addition to the Growing Scholars program,

Tractor Supply and the National FFA Foundation have many other joint initiatives, including the FFA horse evaluation career development event, National FFA Week and the annual National Association of Agricultural Educators Conference. At an individual store level, Tractor Supply continually hosts fund-raising events and works closely with local FFA chapters and high school agriculture advisors to provide resources and leverage synergies. “Local high school agricultural advisors and FFA chapters feel at home in their local Tractor Supply stores,� said John Wendler, senior vice president of marketing at Tractor Supply. “These groups often host fund-raising events at our stores to raise money for community projects, like building a

Cell service holding up after blizzard Associated Press

NEW YORK — Cellphone companies say their networks are largely up and running after a blizzard dumped up to 3 feet of snow on New England.

Not all cell towers have backup power, so natural disasters can take out cell service through power outages.

Last fall’s Superstorm Sandy

had a major impact on cell service in flooded areas of the Northeast.

This week’s snowstorm had much less effect. AT&T Inc. says the “vast majority� of its cell towers in the hardest-hit states are operating fine, and work is under way to restore service in some areas.

school greenhouse, a new bridge in a public park or an animal care lab. Our stores also work with local FFA members to support specific programs and proficiencies by providing demonstrations from knowledgeable Tractor Supply employees and our vendor partners, which brings significant value to both organizations.�

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Longtime banker and community volunteer Terry Cartwright prepares to retire.

— See his story coming this week.

Groom’s parents balk at cost of hosting rehearsal dinner DEAR ABBY: My stepson “Steve” is getting married out of town. His fiancee is an only daughter with three brothers, and her family is throwing a large, traditional, formal wedding.

My husband and I have just been informed by Steve’s mother that we are to host the rehearsal dinner for the wedding party, their spouses and out-of-town guests. It will cost thousands of dollars in addition to the cost of us attending the wedding, and we will have to go into debt to pay for it. Is this fair?

When we were married, we had a simple wedding. We prepared everything ourselves because it was all we could afford. Should we be expected to fork over money we don’t have to feed people we don’t know just because the bride’s family can afford to throw a large, formal wedding? — STEPMOM IN CANADA DEAR STEPMOM: No, you should not, and you should let the bride’s family know it ASAP. Although, traditionally, a rehearsal dinner is hosted by the parents of the groom, today it can be hosted by just about anyone who is willing.

And while the guest list normally includes all attendants and their spouses or partners, close relatives and special guests such as the clergyperson and spouse, you are not obligated

Abigail Van Buren Dear Abby

to include out-of-town g u e s t s .

O u t - o f town guests should be given a list of local restaurants and should not expect to be entertained beyond the wedding and

the reception.

DEAR ABBY: I had a working relationship with a couple, “Ed” and “Millie,” for many years.

I considered them personal friends as well. I have since left the company and moved about 80 miles away.

While I have enjoyed staying in touch with them, their phone calls to me have been overwhelming.

They sometimes call at inappropriate times — day and night.

Ignoring them or not returning calls didn’t work. Ed sent me texts, and I finally responded with “Please don’t call me anymore,” but his calls continue.

I changed my phone number, but now I’m starting to get calls where I work, and they have even called my daughter’s phone. I know Ed is retired now and has some health issues, but I don’t know why I’m the one he calls when he’s bored and wants someone to talk to.

I have reached the point

where I don’t think it is possible to continue this friendship if it’s going to involve multiple phone calls each day and 20 messages in my mailbox during the week. How do I get these nice people to give me some space?

—SMOTHERED IN CARROLLTON, GA. DEAR SMOTHERED: How sad. Multiple daily phone calls and 20 email messages a week after you have asked the person not to contact you isn’t normal behavior. It’s harassment. In light of your long friendship with this couple, and the fact that Ed’s behavior is escalating, call his wife. Explain that you are concerned about her husband’s behavior and urge her to have him evaluated by his doctor.

TO MY ASIAN READERS: The Lunar New Year begins today. It’s the Year of the Snake.

According to Asian culture, individuals born in the year of the snake are goal-oriented and hate failure. They are excellent mediators -- intelligent, refined, clever in business and good providers because they value material wealth. A healthy, happy and prosperous New Year to you all.

(Hiss, hiss, hooray!)

Horoscopes

BY HOLIDAY MATHIS ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Your investigations will lead to a very different place from the one you expected to find when you started out. In this way, your life is like a good story with just the right element of surprise to keep you riveted.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

There are many different ways to analyze your surroundings. Take everything out of sequence or context, and you will see new values and uses for your resources.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

The challenges won’t come from the outside, but from an inner imperative. You’ll sense that you are capable of more, and you are correct in this assessment, so act on it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you act boldly, will the other people around you be threatened?

Will they feel unsuccessful or cowardly in comparison? If it seems that this is the case, you are in the wrong crowd.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ve been given certain gifts, but there is some assembly required. Unfortunately, right now it feels like you’ve misplaced the manual. Start asking around.

There are many who can help you with the next step.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). On days like this, it would be easy to forget that you were meant for greatness. That’s why you need reminders around. All of the people who see something special in you are right.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

You’ll have authority today, and you’ll use it well. In maintaining the order around you, you’ll give a signal to all who come near you: This is where good things happen.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

There’s some glamorous thing you want to do, and there’s also something far less glamorous, or even tedious and boring, that must be done before the glamorous happening can ever be.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Conflicts will come to an end, and it’s not even a difficult process. In fact, this two-word solution is so simple that you may wonder why you didn’t think of it before: Don’t fight.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Remember that nothing is inherently good or bad. Everything is what you make of it.

You will receive news, and the best way to interpret it is to believe that something positive will come of it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Set some attainable work-related goals. Professional achievements will give you a sense of security that will make your home life better, too.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You’ll move up in some regard, and not everyone around you will see this as a wonderful happening. You can’t blame people for being jealous, but it’s something you’ll have to get used to on this success trajectory.

8th grade Aggies finish strong season

BY DONICA PHIFER dphifer@dailycorinthian.com

KOSSUTH — Twenty-win seasons are the sort that high school and college teams dream about.

The Kossuth Eighth Grade Aggies added a plus one to their total, finishing the 20122013 season with a 21-1 record.

“What made us successful in this year’s group is that all the kids played well together,” Kossuth Junior High Head Coach Scotty Shettles said. “We have some kids that can score, and they worked hard on defense.”

The team racked up three tournament wins during the

season, including one in the Junior High County Tournament where it beat in-county rival Corinth.

Aggie team member Nikolas Wilcher picked the win over the Warriors as his favorite moment of the season.

Wilcher’s teammate Charlie Bonee named another tournament: “When we knew we were going to win the five-county tournament against Ripley, there was nothing like that,” Bonee said.

The two tournament championships highlighted a record season for the Aggies, which also included a third title as

Tri-County Champions.

“It really was a team effort, teamwork and people stepping up off the bench,” Bonne said when asked about the success of the Aggies.

“They really came together and beat some very good teams this year, and that is something to be proud of,” Shettles said, “they put in a lot of hard work this year.”

With the team entering high school next year, Shettles says that the talent of the team could add to the depth of the high school squad.

“I’m extremely proud of them because even when we

would be down in games they never gave up — we would come back and win,” Shettles said, “They never gave up, which is the mark of a great team.”

For Shettles, the Tri-County tournament and a seasonsweep over a strong Central squad provided highlights for the season.

“We just took everything one game at a time,” Shettles said.

Both of the eighth grade squads wrapped up their season with an appearance at the Fed Ex-Forum in an exhibition game with Alcorn Central on Friday.

No. 21 Missouri manhandles Ole Miss 98-79 Associated Press

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Six minutes into the second half Saturday, Mississippi’s Marshall Henderson stole the ball near halfcourt and headed for a fastbreak layup. It didn’t go in, but Derrick Millinghaus grabbed the rebound underneath the basket without any Missouri defender within 5 feet.

Problem was, he didn’t realize his good fortune.

He dribbled out of the lane then missed a turnaround 15-footer. The Rebels trailed 64-46 at the time, and coach Andy Kennedy yelled at his team in one of many signs of frustration during Mississippi’s 98-79 loss to the 21st-ranked Tigers.

The Rebels (18-5, 7-3 Southeastern Conference) trailed by 16 points at halftime and close to 20 points throughout the second half.

Ole Miss whipped thenNo. 10 Missouri 64-49 at home on Jan. 12, but gave up 50 points in the first half of the rematch and was outrebounded 50-32.

Henderson had 16 points on 4-for-15 shooting for Mississippi, which was on the verge of cracking the Top 25 last week but has lost three of four. Jarvis Summers also had 16 points while Murphy Holloway, coming off a career-best 24 points, was held to seven in 30 minutes.

“You throw a couple of baskets together, and all of

a sudden, it’s 10, 12 (points), put a little game pressure on them, then we can make some adjustments,” Kennedy said. “We never got to that point. And any time they did miss shots — which was not often — (Alex) Oriakhi just got them all.”

The game got testy with about 7 1-2 minutes to go when Reginald Buckner apparently was tripped by Oriakhi after the Tigers scored to make it 80-58 and came up swinging with a couple of wild punches that missed Laurence Bowers as Oriakhi danced away.

Buckner was ejected, leaving the court with a towel draped over his right shoulder and then tossing the towel into the stands after finishing with nine points and four rebounds. Oriakhi was called for a flagrant foul, plus Brown, Bowers and Holloway were whistled for technicals.

Kennedy said he didn’t see the altercation, and doesn’t know when the league office will determine what actions it takes with the players involved.

“That’s a good question,” he said. “I’ve never been in this situation. I would hope to know sooner rather than later. I wouldn’t assume today, but I would assume by early next week.”

Oriakhi had a career-high 22 points to go with 18 rebounds and three blocks.

“Once he gets rolling, he

starts talking a little bit. I guess that’s to help him out a little bit,” Mississippi’s Nick Williams said. “But he did what he had to do. He had, what, 22 and 18? So you know, you talk all you want to. He just did what he had to do out there. He was big, he was physical and he punked us.”

Williams returned after missing two games with a foot injury and scored nine points on 4-for-14 shooting.

“I felt great,” he said.

“Probably the healthiest I’ve been since late November.”

Phil Pressey had four assists to break Anthony Peeler’s career school record and had 22 points for Missouri (17-6, 6-4), which bounced back nicely from its latest discouraging road loss, a 1-point setback at Texas A&M on Thursday.

The Tigers are 14-0 at home and 0-5 on the road.

“If they would have hung their heads, and they would have said, ‘Woe is me,’ then obviously the outcome might have been a little bit different,” Kennedy said.

“They didn’t, they came in, they did what they were supposed to do, 48 hours later they feel pretty good.

The loss for them versus Texas A&M was worth one, just like today is for us.”

Missouri matched its season best with 12 3-pointers, four by Pressey and three each by Keion Bell and Jabari Brown. Bell added 21

points and Brown had 14.

Pressey, a junior, has 499 assists in three seasons, one more than Peeler totaled from 1988-92. He leads the SEC at 7.1 assists per game and finished with four assists and one turnover, one game after committing seven turnovers and missing a potential game-winning shot at Texas A&M. The 50-point first half was a season best for Missouri.

After Brown’s 3-pointer with 7:07 to go in the half, Missouri was up 38-18 and had more 3-pointers (7) than Mississippi had baskets (6). Pressey was just 4 for 13 overall, but hit his first three 3-pointers to fuel the fast start.

Mississippi shot itself out of the game, at 38 percent overall and 2 for 9 from 3-point range. Coming off a career-best 24-point game against Mississippi State, Holloway was scoreless until 6 1/2 minutes to go and totaled two points in the half.

“It’s tough, man,” Williams said. “I think it’s tough when Murphy gets only one rebound. I think it’s tough when Reggie gets ejected. I think it’s tough when I come back off of injury. I think it’s tough when everybody on our team is not doing our job. We’re a team, and when one person goes down, the next person has to step up.

So that’s what we have to do.”

Michigan, Kansas go down as run of upsets continue Associated Press

There goes another one, and another one.

No. 3 Michigan and fifthranked Kansas each lost on Saturday, continuing a perilous stretch for the Top 25.

The Wolverines became the third top-three team to fall this week when Ben Brust hit a tiebreaking 3-pointer with less than 40 seconds left in overtime, leading Wisconsin to a 65-62 victory. Brust also tied the game at the end of regulation with a heave from just inside halfcourt.

That’s just the way it has gone lately for the top of the poll.

No. 2 Florida lost at Arkansas on Tuesday night, and No. 1 Indiana dropped a 74-72 decision at Illinois on Thursday. This should be the sixth straight week with a different No. 1 in The Associated Press’ Top 25, which would be the second-longest streak since the first AP poll in 1949.

No. 2 Florida handles Mississippi State 83-58

BY MARK LONG Associated Press

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — No. 2 Florida played without forward Will Yeguete, benched starting point guard Scottie Wilbekin and got an injury scare from Erik Murphy.

It didn’t matter against Mississippi State.

Mike Rosario scored 18 points, Murphy added 17 before leaving with a sprained ankle and the Gators bounced back from a humbling loss earlier in the week to thump the short-handed Bulldogs 83-58 on Saturday.

The game looked every bit like a matchup of the Southeastern Conference’s best and worst teams.

Then again, it wasn’t nearly as lopsided as the 35-point

beatdown Florida handed Mississippi State on its home court two weeks ago.

“When we play like that, it’s hard to beat us,” guard Kenny Boynton said.

Casey Prather, playing in place of Yeguete, chipped in 12 points and five rebounds. Yeguete had arthroscopic surgery Friday to remove loose bodies in his right knee and will miss at least the rest of the regular season.

The Gators (19-3, 9-1 SEC) went 4-5 without him last season, but handled his absence much better against the Bulldogs.

“Obviously, he’s a big piece of our team that we lost,” said Michael Frazier II, who finished with 11 points and six rebounds in his first career start.

“But we’ve got to play together, play hard and try to make up for what he brought to the team.”

Mississippi State (7-15, 2-8) played without guard Jalen Steele, who didn’t make the trip after being suspended indefinitely for violating team rules.

It was a big blow for a team already down three players.

Freshmen Andre Applewhite and Jacoby Davis are out for the season with knee injuries, and senior Wendell Lewis is sidelined with a fractured right patella.

So the Bulldogs came to Gainesville with six scholarship players and two walk-ons, not exactly the ideal roster to upset the league’s highestranked team.

The scoreboard proved it.

Gavin Ware led the Bulldogs, who have lost eight in a row, with 16 points. Colin Borchert added 14 and Trivante Bloodman had 10.

“It’s really hard to take a loss,” Borchert said. “We fought hard and we are a noexcuse team.”

Florida took a double-digit lead midway through the first half. Frazier had a lot to do with it, hitting his first three 3-pointers.

The Gators made it 36-18 on Murphy’s baseline hook shot with 4:27 remaining before halftime. Murphy finished 7-of-10 shooting, including 3 of 5 from 3-point range. It was a stark contrast to his last game, a 2-for-7 performance against Arkansas on Tuesday night.

Soup and Scholarships Annual luncheon provides funds for education

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

The smell of soup and a chance to help high school students quickly filled the parking area of the Alcorn County Extension Service.

While members and volunteers with the 4-H Advisory Council rushed to complete orders during the Jesse Clausel Soup Luncheon, many took time to fill their bellies with either vegetable beef soup, potato soup or chili in the exhibit hall.

“This is such a good thing,” said Board of Supervisors Chairman Lowell Hinton. “I have always been a supporter of 4-H because it gives kids so many opportunities.”

Money collected from

the $5 meal which also consisted of dessert, drink and crackers, is used to fund scholarships for graduating high school seniors.

According to 4-H agent Tammy Parker, several students qualify for the scholarships this year.

Students must be active in the club for two years to be eligible for a scholarship.

One of those who qualifies is senior Tony Laudadio.

Laudadio, president of the Alcorn County Council, was one of four Laudadio children helping with the event on Friday.

“4-H has helped me gain confidence and develop skills such as speaking,” said the coun-

cil president. “Through projects like this, I have learned to be a good citizen.”

Since being a part of 4-H since 2003, Laudadio has helped prepare for the annual luncheon the last three years.

His sister, Marisa, was busy helping prepare soup earlier in the week.

The other two Laudadios, Annalisa and Daniel, were working the ticket table during the luncheon.

“This is a wonderful way to reach out to the community,” added Marisa.

A chance to help children has brought out Ruth Clausel for years.

“The ones who help with this are really good

people,” said Clausel, who was filling the tea orders along with her son Bryan.

Mrs. Clausel is the wife of the man who the event is named after. Known as Mr. Jesse to many, Clausel served as the advisory council president over 20 years before passing away. He also started the annual 4-H Awards Banquet.

“It's such a good cause, because it helps children,” said Mrs. Clausel of the 11th annual luncheon.

Story of ‘Fighting Joe’ Mower at Battle of Corinth

BY TOM PARSON NPS Ranger

Last week I talked about some of the cool Civil War nicknames and focused on the Gorillas of the 16th Corps.

This week I’m going to tell you of a guy who already had a great nickname even before he became a Gorilla. To top it off, his nickname was won on the field of battle in Corinth.

This is the story of “Fighting Joe.” Joseph Anthony Mower was 34 years old when the war began and he had already been a soldier for several of those years. He was a native of Woodstock, Vt., a beautiful little town in the middle of the state. He was raised in Massachusetts and spent two years at the Norwich Academy in Vermont, but for whatever reasons, he dropped out of school and took on work as a carpenter.

His true calling came with the outbreak of the Mexican War in 1848 when Joe enlisted as a private in the U.S. Engineers. At the end of the war, he took his discharge and returned to civilian life.

He was only delaying the inevitable. The man was born to be a soldier.

In 1855, he wrangled a lieutenant’s commission in the 1st United States Infantry. By the outbreak of the Civil War, he had advanced to captain.

The 1st U.S. Infantry started the war, not as infantry, but as heavy artillerists. Joe was given command of two companies of the 1st Infantry and placed at the head of the siege train for the Army of the Mississippi.

What means “siege train?”

Captain Mower and his men had charge of three big siege cannon that fired 24-pound cannonballs and a squat 8” siege howitzer that fired an enormous 64-pound ball.

In this particular campaign, the soldiers of the 1st U.S. were involved in bombarding the Confederate bastion of Island No. 10 in the Mississippi River. Mower was good at his job and people noticed. In April of 1862, while the siege was in progress, he was promoted to major and transferred to fill an opening in the 11th Missouri Infantry.

A few weeks later, the regiment was shipped off to Pittsburg Landing, Tenn., to join the grow-

ing army group about to march on Corinth. The commanding officer of the 11th Missouri was bumped up to command a division and Mower was promoted again, this time to colonel in command of the 11th Mo. During the Siege of Corinth, Mower’s men were in the thick of the fighting, particularly during the engagement at Farmington on May 9. For a short time, the 11th Missouri stood alone against the three advancing divisions of Gen. Earl Van Dorn. It was during this dust-up that he first exhibited a trademark habit that nearly got him killed. He had a dangerous tendency of riding far forward to observe the fighting, or as one of his men described it, “an almost uncontrollable impulse to mingle with the skirmish line.”

A reporter from the New York Times saw him in action and told his readers that Mower was “absolutely without any sense of danger, he seemed to relish above everything else the tumult of battle.” The historian of the 47th Illinois, Private Cloyd Byner, agreed -- “No lover more impatient for his mistress than Mower for war’s troubles.”

A fighter like Mower was capable of leading more than a single regiment and he was soon placed in command of a brigade of four regiments.

At the Battle of Iuka, his brigade arrived “in the nick of time” to bolster the faltering Union line.

One of his men saw him in action and bragged Mower was “all fight from head to foot.”

It was less than a month later, at the Battle of Corinth, that Joe arrived to again save the day. It was Oct. 3, the first day of battle, and Mower’s brigade had been held in reserve to the south of town.

Late in the afternoon, in a large field east of the White House, the Union line was crumbling from repeated Confederate attacks. Mower’s brigade was sent to plug the hole, and in a half-hour of desperate fighting, the Southerners were stopped.

That day he was given the nickname “Fighting Joe.” To celebrate his success, Joe had a couple of shots of whisky ... and then a couple more. Here was another habit that was forever tied to Joe

Drawing depicts Gen. Joe Mower during the Battle of Tupelo.

Union Gen. “Fighting Joe” Mower

A fighter like Mower was capable of leading more than a single regiment and he was soon placed in command of a brigade of four regiments. At the Battle of Iuka, his brigade arrived “in the nick of time” to bolster the faltering Union line. One of his men saw him in action and bragged Mower was “all fight from head to foot.”

to make a rather dashing sketch of a knightly Mower brandishing his sword over his head while his horse reared up on its hind legs. Under the mistaken belief Mower was making “brave speeches,” the young clergyman soon discovered, “Mower was using the King’s English in a very free and rather reprehensible manner.”

Another soldier noted Joe was “drunk as a boiled owl.”

“Joe” might have been known to pull a cork, but “General Mower” was an exceptional soldier.

General Sherman had become so impressed with the young brigadier that he took time to write President Lincoln prior to the fight at Tupelo. “I have ordered General A.J. Smith and General Mower from Memphis to pursue and kill Forrest, promising the latter, in case of success, my influence to promote him to a major-general. He is one of the gamest men in our service. Should accident befall me, I ask you to favor Mower; if he succeeds in disposing of Forrest.”

“Fighting Joe” didn’t quite kill Forrest, but the Confederate general did get shot in the foot. Close enough! In September, Joe was made a major general and transferred to Sherman’s army in Georgia for the March to the Sea. With the new stars on his shoulders, Joe was placed at the head of the 20th Corps. He stayed in

Mower. Capt. Theodore Carter of the 7th Minnesota, who served under Mower in 1864, made a canny observation -“Gen. Mower was a good military man, when he was sober. But he could not stand success. If he accomplished his designs one day, the next he was quite sure to get ‘full.’”

He was still pretty full the next morning when he was ordered to send a reconnaissance to “feel” for the Confederate line beyond Turner Creek.

Mower found the Southern line all right, and became a prisoner. A few hours later, the defeated Confederates were retreating north and out of a cloud of dust came a hatless Joe Mower, spurring a mule for all he was worth, headed for the Union line. Sharpshooters sent several shots his way and one bullet tore a piece out of his neck, but he made it to safety.

Later in the day, Joe was joking about his adventure with Gen. Rose-

crans, “If they had reported me for being ‘shot in the neck’ to day instead of yesterday, it would have been correct.”

A similar incident occurred two years later during the Battle of Tupelo. Joe had been promoted to brigadier general and was commanding a division in an expedition sent to take on the cavalry of Gen. Forrest.

During two days of fighting, Mower’s men gave the Confederates under Forrest their first real lickin’ of the war. On the third day of fighting, July 15, it was obvious Joe had been celebrating again.

An advance across an open field was ordered and Mower climbed into the saddle to urge his men forward. Chaplain Elijah Edwards of the 7th Minnesota was nearby and stopped to watch. At first Edwards was awed by the sight of the brigadier swinging his sword over his head and calling out to his men. He was so impressed, he stopped

that position to the end of the war.

As he was a Regular Army officer, Joe stayed in the military after the war ended. Unfortunately, his rank of major general was with the volunteer forces, and like so many others, he was reduced in rank when the army was downsized.

Once again a Captain, Joe was soon bumped back up to Colonel and placed at the head of the 39th U.S. Infantry, an all-black regiment.

A short time later, he was placed in command of the Military Division of the Gulf, which consisted of the states of Louisiana and Texas. “Fighting Joe” had yet another battle to fight.

Joe was a Republican and an abolitionist, a combination that spelled trouble in his conservative district. Joe believed in advancing the civil rights of the recently freed slaves, an unpopular position that made him the most hated man in Texas for a few years.

He was later serving in New Orleans as the commander of the Department of Louisiana when, in 1869, he was laid low with a case of pneumonia. He fought, rallied, fell again, and finally lost his struggle with the disease.

It was the only battle “Fighting Joe” ever lost.

Mississippi Delta Museum features black soldier exhibit For the Daily Corinthian

As part of Black History Month, the Museum of the Mississippi Delta hopes to give a glimpse into the lives of black soldiers who served during the Civil War with its “War Comes to the Mississippi Delta” exhibit.

The exhibit, which runs through Aug. 31, focuses primarily on the Battle of Fort Pemberton, which took place near Greenwood in March 1863.

But the museum also has tried to touch upon other aspects of the war, said Cheryl Taylor, executive director.

“We talked about the African-American soldiers, the U.S. Colored Troops, at the Battle of Milliken’s Bend, which is near Vicksburg,” Taylor said.

During that battle, black soldiers, despite having little training, fought bravely and helped defeat the Confederates. Their performance helped change the minds

of many in the Union Army about using black troops in combat.

Blacks serving in the Union Army played a significant role, but other stories need to be told as well, Taylor said.

Take Holt Collier, for example.

Collier, a slave born in Mississippi, served as a scout in a Confederate Texas regiment during the war. Taylor said Collier was an exception, since most slaves did not serve in the Confederate Army.

After the war, Taylor said, Collier served as a bear hunting guide in Mississippi. In 1902, he served as a tracker for a hunt conducted for President Theodore Roosevelt.

Collier, it is said, subdued a bear that had killed one of his tracking dogs near Onward, Miss. He did that by striking it over its head with the barrel of rifle.

Collier then tied the bear up and awaited

“Most were hired as guides.

Some African-Americans actually went with their masters to war. They served as servants in several different capacities. There’s not a lot of documentation that Southern blacks served in the Confederate Army.”

Cheryl Tayor Executive director, Museum of the Mississippi Delta Roosevelt’s arrival. Once Roosevelt arrived, he refused to shoot the helpless bear, thus creating the Teddy Bear legend, Taylor said.

As part of the museum’s Black History Month program, Minor Buchanan, author of “Holt Collier: His Life, His Roosevelt Hunts, and The Origin of the Teddy Bear,” will speak about Collier’s life on Feb. 19.

The program, which will include a slide presentation, will begin at 6:30 p.m.

It is free and open to the public.

Buchanan’s presentation is supported in part by the Mississippi Humanities Council.

Taylor said in preparing for the exhibit she did some research in Jackson.

There she found records of Confederate pensions

paid to blacks.

“Most were hired as guides,” Taylor said.

“Some African-Americans actually went with their masters to war. They served as servants in several different capacities.

There’s not a lot of documentation that Southern blacks served in the Confederate Army.”

While the war raged between North and South, President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation in Jan. 1 of that year, freeing the slaves in Confederate states.

Taylor said the proclamation freed some 50,000 slaves the first day. In time, between 3 million and 4 million slaves would be freed under it.

“That was obviously significant for those blacks that already were in Union-held territory,” Taylor said.

Interestingly, in areas where the Confederacy was still in control, Union

troops seized slaves and placed them in “contraband camps,” she said.

Two such camps were located in Corinth and Vicksburg.

She said male slaves, once placed in a camp, could join the Union Army’s black regiments.

The Museum of the Mississippi Delta has received a lot of coverage since it opened its “War Comes to the Mississippi Delta” exhibit, Taylor said.

“People are telling me that they are loving the show. ... We had 200 people the first day,” she said.

Students from Leflore County schools are admitted to the exhibit free of charge.

“We’re in the process of scheduling tours that are directed at particular age groups,” she said.

Solving the nightmare of the reel backlash Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good chance youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been out on the lake and heard a fellow fishermean nearby bellowing out some profanity-laced words strong enough to make a sailor blush.

Odds are they were either having an all around frustrating day when nothing was going right or, more than likely, they just backlashed their reel again.

When fishing with baitcasting reels, backlashes are bound to happen for one reason or another.

The dreaded birdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nest is a pain, but even reels with the best up-to-date antibacklash controls and brake systems can overrun at times.

The spring fishing sea-

son is just around the corner, and many young fishermen are probably David p l a n n i n g Green on upgrading to a Outdoors baitcasting reel.

So, with that in mind, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to go over what causes backlashes, prevention measures, and what to do in the event of one.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always been a general rule to hold your thumb close to the spool on these types of reels while making a cast for control purposes. But before even making an attempt, especially with a newly purchased reel,

check and set the braking system as needed using the cast control knob located on the side of the reel to help prevent the likelihood of a backlash.

In setting the brake system, put the reel on free spool and adjust the cast control knob so that the lure tied on the end of the line falls slowly from the rod tip toward the ground. Then, tighten the knob down a hair more.

The faster the line rolls off, the more likely youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get a backlash on a cast so it would be wise to keep the braking system relatively tight for the first few casts until you get a good feel for the reel, then tighten or loosen it accordingly.

Having the brake sys-

tem set right is just one aspect of preventing a backlash. There are other causes such as casting lures that are too lightweight, casting into a strong wind, and snaring objects in behind as you rare back to make a cast.

Casting into the wind is a no-no. It can be done in an effective manner if the brake system is tightened down even further, but it would be much better to position yourself so the casts can be made adjacent to or with the wind.

Hooking an object as a cast is being made causes lots of backlashes, and I can assure you itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enough to cause any angler to say a choice word or two. It happens, and the only way to prevent such an

occurrence is to be more aware of your surroundings.

Bird nests of this origin can be really bad. However, if you can stop the spool before the line becomes too intertwined; you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to waste time and resort to cutting the mess out with clippers or a knife. All you have to do is use your thumb to back up the spool until the loops in the line are reached, and without using excessive pressure, pull the loops upward to release the line beneath.

Keep repeating the process until all loops are removed.

Backlashes can be a real nightmare and they are going to happen when using baitcasting reels re-

gardless of the design or the skill set of the angler.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just the way it is, and sometimes it can be very frustrating.

So if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out fishing and hear someone ranting and raving on the other side of the lake like a mad man in an R rated movie, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll know what happened. A new birdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nest was just created.

Because of climate, Mississippi celebrates Arbor Day each February

BY JAMES L. CUMMINS Conservation Corner

While National Arbor Day is held on the last Friday in April, Mississippi, similar to several other states, observes the holiday at a time best suited to its growing season.

Our state adopted the second Friday in February as the day on which Mississippi would annually observe Arbor Day. Arbor Day was first observed in Nebraska in 1872 due to the thoughtful vision of Julius Ster-

ling Morton, who was a concerned resident, journalist and politician. He recognized that the planting of more trees would provide great benefit to the quality of life. He thought that there should be a special day for the planting, care and appreciation of trees.

Currently, Arbor Day is actively celebrated in all 50 states. However, due to the variations in climates across the United States, each state celebrates Arbor Day on its

own special date.

And while our nation depends so heavily on trees to produce the thousands of wood products we need every day, we are also depending on these same trees to provide many other services that benefit society, for most of which forest landowners never receive compensation.

These free services to society include producing oxygen, sequestering carbon dioxide, filtering air and water, providing

fish and wildlife habitat, including that for threatened and endangered species, improving the aesthetic beauty of the natural landscape and providing opportunities for recreation and solitude.

We encourage you to plant any of the 150 native species of trees that grow here in Mississippi.

Planting the right tree in the right location will ensure a healthy future for generations to come. Some of the trees

to choose from are oak, hickory, cypress, ash, holly, plum, dogwood, elm, maple, pine and best of all, the State Tree which produces our State Flower, the Southern magnolia.

To be reasonably sure that the tree of your choice will grow well in your locality, ask your local nursery, your service forester or your county agent. You can also go to www.urbanforestrynetwork.org, which is Wildlife Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tree planting site, and find information on

tree selection and planting.

For more information on National Arbor Day, please visit www.arborday.org.

Poem helps mark special day

BY MARGIE BROOKS My husband, Billy Brooks, and I took early retirement in 1987 while we were living in Morgan City, La. Through the years we had owned RVs and trailers and took enjoyable trips and vacations camping with family. Now our two children were grown and had moved away.

It was natural for Billy and me to continue camping.

After about a year we decided to sell our home and pursue our long-time dream of “living on the road.”

We were living in a very good area, had good jobs, good neighbors and friends, and a good church, but we had no regrets on leaving Morgan City.

We visited Billy’s sis-

ter, Fredra Wilbanks, in Kossuth and she allowed us to camp in her yard.

On Jan. 12, 1988, we had a big surprise. Without prior warning, we awoke to 12 inches of the most beautiful snow I had ever seen covering the earth.

This was Billy’s 59th birthday and we had to cancel our plans for the day. I wanted to still do something for his birthday, so I sat down and composed the following poem: Today, it’s birthday number 59 for loving husband, and friend of mine.

Time passes by and another year is here, And with each passing day, you grow more dear.

You are robust, strong, yet gentle as can be, And always so very

good to me.

You’ve worked very hard to provide us a good home, And you place my welfare above your own.

If I looked this world over, I could never find, Someone to take your place, loving husband, and friend of mine.

You can tell by these words and my actions, too, That I really and truly appreciate you.

God is so merciful and blesses us so, And keeps us daily, this we do know.

May he continue to bless us and keep us as one, ’till our life here on earth is done.

Onward we’ll keep walking through the years of time, Hand in hand we’ll

go and more happiness find.

As our retirement years bring joys sublime, Together we’ll share them, loving husband’ and friend of mine.

After seven years of traveling and seeing more of God’s beautiful creation, Billy and I decided to buy a home in Corinth, our hometown. After much looking, we found just what we wanted. We put in a lot of personal touches in the house and land. God gave us 11 years to enjoy it and it was some of the happiest days of our 57 years of marriage.

Billy died of leukemia in 2005.

I am so grateful for all the memorable days God gave us, but the day of Jan. 12, 1988, has a special place in my heart.

Four steps to finding perfect engagement ring Special to the Daily Corinthian

(NewsUSA) — There are a few big purchases in life that you really don’t want to mess up -- a first house, a health care plan, a new car, and especially, the engagement ring for your loved one.

If you’re starting to sweat under the pressure, here’s a step-by-step guide to make your decision easier:

Determine the metal ■ Platinum is a naturally white metal, meaning it will never fade, change color, or need to be redipped or re-plated.

■ White gold, on the other hand, is a created by adding an alloy mix to yellow gold. As the white color fades, the ring will need to be re-dipped a few times each year.

■ Platinum pairs well with all stones because its natural color will not cast any unwanted color onto the gem, plus its density makes for an extremely secure setting.

■ If you want matching bands, be sure to consider what your partner likes before deciding on a metal.

Determine the cut of the stone ■ Traditionally, round and princess cuts are the most popular.

■ Recently, celebrities such as Angelina Jolie,

Sofia Vergara and Drew Barrymore have brought attention to less common cuts such as emerald, cushion and radiant.

Determine the budget ■ According the a 2011 jewelry study by The Knot, the bride views setting, stone cut and quality, and metal used as the most important aspects of a ring, whereas the groom focuses on stone quality, style and price. Each of these attributes factors into the price of the ring, so it helps to make sure the couple is aligned before shopping.

■ Platinum rings come in a variety of price points -- with many costing less than $1,500 -- so couples are sure to get the best value for the ring.

Music world helps Newtown heal following massacre

BY PAT EATON-ROBB Associated Press

HARTFORD, Conn. — When 6-year-old Dylan Hockley was memorialized at a service following the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School, his parents were especially moved by one song.

A writer, Dushyanthi Satchi, had reworked the lyrics to the Leonard Cohen song “Hallelujah,” from Dylan’s favorite movie, “Shrek.”

“Dylan’s Hallelujah” begins, “It’s calm, it’s clear, it’s a peaceful day, walking through the heavenly gates, hand in hand with teachers and my friends.”

“That one thing — that song — has been quite healing for us,” Nicole Hockley, Dylan’s mother, said Thursday.

There have been many musical tributes to the victims of the Dec. 14 tragedy, some put on by world famous performers, others by local musicians and many involving the children of Newtown.

Professional football players were on the verge of tears when a group of 26 children who escaped

the Newtown shooting, including Dylan’s older brother, Jake, joined Jennifer Hudson at the Super Bowl to sing “America the Beautiful.”

They also will perform before the Grammy Awards this weekend.

“Humans have used music in healing forever,” said Jane Matson, the choral director at Newtown High School. “It expresses our feelings and gets emotion out in a way that’s constructive and beautiful. So I don’t think it’s any surprise that in trying to heal here, we would turn to music.”

Members of Matson’s chamber choir were among about 80 Newtown students who performed with dozens of Broadway stars including Brian Stokes Mitchell, Christine Ebersole and even Monkees frontman Micky Dolenz at a benefit show in Waterbury. The event “From Broadway with Love” was put on by Broadway producer Van Dean, who lives in nearby Trumbull and composer Brett Boles, who grew up in Newtown.

The choir joined star Michael Cerveris to sing “Sunday,” a song from “Sunday in the Park with George” about finding the calm after chaos.

They also sang “Somewhere” from West Side Story.

That show, whose audience included first responders and the parents of Sandy Hook victims, also featured the choir from Sandy Hook Elementary, on video, singing their school song.

“The idea was to have as many children as possible be a part of it, to give them something to get excited about,” Dean said.

High school choir member Kyle Watkins said it was a chance for him and other Newtown kids to experience something positive, to express themselves and to feel like they were helping.

“Newtown is my home and the people are kind of like my family,” he said.

“A lot of us wanted to do something, but didn’t know how to help. So for the choir, our way was singing. It was a miraculous experience.”

That’s also why Sabrina Post brought students from her performing arts school in Newtown to the nearby home recording studio of former Talking Head and TomTom Club band members Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth, where they recorded a version of “Over the Rainbow” with folk singer Ingrid Michaelson.

Post said she wanted to show the children they could make a difference.

“One little girl, her neighbor died,” she said.

“And she said she thinks of her as singing with us when she sings.”

The song rose to No. 12 on iTunes and to No. 2 on Amazon.com, said Tim Hayes, who co-produced the recording.

The children have been asked to perform this Sunday for the E! Network’s Grammy Awards preshow, a segment that will air from Newtown.

They also sang last month during a two-day concert event at the Ridgefield Playhouse, where other performers included Johnny Winters, Paul Shaffer and Paul Simon,

who also sang at the funeral of Newtown teacher Victoria Soto.

Hayes said the children will do no other events after Sunday.

“We know the kids involved have had a wonderful experience, but we think this chapter is now done, and we want these kids to get back to being kids,” he said.

Many of the events have raised thousands of dollars for various Newtownrelated causes, such as mental health care for the first responders or children’s programs at the local sports center. More than 50 local bands performed in clubs around Hartford one day last month to benefit the Sandy Hook School Support Fund.

This Sunday, a free concert will be held in Ridgefield. Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary fame helped organize the event after speaking with the family of Ben Wheeler, one of the children who died.

Yarrow said this performance, which features folk and blues artists such

as Dar Williams and Guy Davis, is intentionally not a fundraiser. Guests, he said, will include Newtown families and first responder networks, educators and political leaders, with the theme of coming together to bring positive change to society.

“This is not post-Sandy, where you need supplies and food,” he said. “My intuition is this community needs an event that brings music and a tone of caring, healing and togetherness. We need to let them know they are not alone in a way that is helpful to them.”

Stokes Mitchell, the Broadway star, said that is exactly what he felt at Waterbury’s Palace Theater while singing “The Impossible Dream,” a song that speaks about striving to right the unrightable wrong.

“Music has this strange power, more than any other art form, to talk to your soul directly,” he said. “In some ways, it can bypass your brain and it goes right into your heart, right into your soul, right into your being.”
