Couple’s Book Shares Lessons

BARRY AND PEGGY BOULWARE

by Diane Lowrey R-T Editor A project that began as a Christmas gift to their grandchildren has become the inspiration for a series of children’s books being written by a Trenton couple, who have now seen the first of those books published. Barry and Peggy Boulware are the authors and illustrators of “The Big Adventures of Webster and Molly,” a story about two dogs wanting to “see big” by traveling to different places in the U.S., only to discover that “the biggest big” is right in their own backyard. “I always knew I wanted to do a book (for my grandchildren) when I retired, but I just wasn’t sure as to what type of book that would be,” Barry said. Barry’s retirement led him into substitute teaching at several area elementary schools, which he said gave him access to plenty of children’s books and ideas for what he and his wife could use in their own writings. “I told Peggy ‘I think we can do that’ and we were on our way,” Barry said. The subjects of the book, Webster and Molly, are actually brother and sister, with Webster being a member of the Boulware household while Molly belongs to Barry’s sister, Bev Bunton and her husband, Howard. Webster has been part of

many other Boulware projects over the years. “Years ago we started doing Christmas cards for the family, then went on to do cards for other occasions, and the dogs (the Boulwares had another dog prior to Molly) were always in the cards,” Peggy said. “So putting them in our story just seemed the natural thing to do,” Barry said. The book, which is aimed at children up to third grade, takes the dogs to 10 Barry, Peggy and Webster Boulware places out west, an area where the Boulbook together, it gave us a chance to look wares have taken many vacations over the back on the places we’ve visited and reyears, including the dog.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Bellerive Country Club is considered one of the "Big Four" of traditional, exclusive St. Louis-area clubs, a picturesque parkland course designed by Robert Trent Jones serving as its centerpiece. For a while, big events bolstered its reputation. Gary Player won a thrilling Monday playoff to capture the U.S. Open and complete the career Grand Slam, at the time the third player to accomplish the feat. Years later, his fellow South African, Nick Price, stormed to the PGA Championship at Bellerive for the first of his three majors. Yet recent history hasn't been so kind. The World Golf Championship event in 2001 was cancelled after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the first PGA Tour event to be cancelled in its entirety in more than 50 years. Heavy rains have washed out tournament play other years, unheralded winners have left galleries less than enthused, and some of the biggest names in the game have missed Bellerive because of injuries. "I guess you could say we're a little snake bit," said longtime member Jay Williamson, who played 16 seasons on the PGA Tour and now works in wealth management. "It's just part of the deal." Or, as one local walking the course Monday pointed out, "We're owed one this week." As if on cue, a white picket fence near the 18th green broke under the weight of fans pressing for autographs, sending several sprawling to the ground — nobody was seriously hurt. Then, a line of wicked storms rolled through Tuesday, soaking the course and wiping out many practice rounds. Tiger Woods managed five holes, which is par for the course when it comes to him and Bellerive. Circumstances have conspired against him playing it for years. He had come to town early in 2001 to conduct a clinic for American Express, the sponsors of the WGC event, and he was in the locker room at Bellerive when the planes hit the World Trade Center. He watched the TVs until he couldn't stomach it anymore, finally heading to the course. He played nine holes of a practice round with Mark Cal-

cavecchia while Woods's head of security, Joe Corless, provided them with a constant stream of updates. "That was a very surreal time, at least for me anyway," Woods said. "They made the right move in cancelling the event. That was on the 11th, and I drove home on the 13th, 17 hours to get back to my home in Florida. It was a very surreal time for myself on that drive, a lot of reflecting." Davis Love III never even made it to St. Louis. "My flight got grounded," he said this week. "I did a lot of work for American Express, and the vice chairman and I were good friends — still good friends — and I immediately called to check on him and his employee friends that I knew in the city, and he said, 'We will not be playing golf.' "I lot of guys came on out here," Love said, "but I knew that there was bigger things than golf." Many fans that bought tickets that week waited patiently for another chance to see Woods, and they though it would happen at the BMW Championship in 2008. But two days after beating Rocco Mediate in a playoff at the U.S. Open, Woods announced he would be having seasonending knee surgery. What did show up that week? Remnants of Hurricane Gustav, which churned up the Mississippi River and delivered heavy rains. The first round was postponed and parking areas washed out, and only thanks to an army of groundskeepers and volunteers was the course playable that weekend. Given all that misfortune, it wouldn't have been surprising if PGA Championship chairman Mike DeCola had heart palpitations when dark clouds swept in Tuesday morning. The sound of sirens on the course were more plentiful than the sound of drivers hitting balls, and massive crowds that braved withering heat for Monday's practice rounds were replaced by soggy fans seeking shelter. "To have a great major you need a little bit of luck, whether that's weather or traffic," Pete Bevacqua, the PGA of America's chief executive, acknowledged on the eve of the championship. "You need to have everything come together perfectly."

Peggy’s artwork is featured prominently throughout the book, illustrating each of the places visited by Webster and Molly on their journey. The artwork in the book is reminiscent of artwork throughout the Boulware house, done by Peggy to commemorate special occasions in the couple’s lives. Nearly every room of the home has some of Peggy’s artwork on its walls. Because of Barry’s self-admitted limited knowledge of technology, Peggy was also instrumental in getting the book onto the computer, along with the illustrations, and preparing it for the publishers, “Create Space.” The couple researched several publishers before deciding on the South Carolinabased firm, which publishes the book as it is ordered and therefore does not require a big

The suit alleged that while it was clear that Mr. Mock needed medical treatment, no one at the facility sought care for him nor provided any life-saving efforts when he was found to be unresponsive. A May 22 docket entry showed the case was reported settled.

The cost is $13.99 and yes, the couple will receive a small royalty from every book sold. The Boulwares have already finished a second and third book, although they have not yet submitted them to the publisher, with writing and artwork being done on book four. Barry said he also has an idea for a fifth book in the series. And each book, according to Peggy, includes a “life lesson” for the reader. “It’s a happy book, but it’s also something children can learn from,” she said. “And that’s what we wanted it to be...fun and something that speaks to the kids.”

Princeton City Council Meets

The Princeton City Council set its 2018-19 tax levy and approved several service contracts during a meeting on Wednesday night. City Clerk Danette Snapp said the tax levy next year was set at 81.95 cents for the general fund and 8.92 cents for the band fund, both of which were slightly higher than last year due to a decrease in assessed valuation. The council updated its gas and water trip charge ordinance to reflect new rates for shutoff notices and reconnects, both of which are now $50. The council adopted a lease with Saint Luke’s Health Systems for use of the helipad, which is located on city property near the health clinic. The council approved four service contracts with the

Princeton Chamber of Commerce, totalling $1,500, to help pay for Calamity Jane Day activities. A catering license was granted to Bill Heck to allow him to have a beer garden and live music during the Calamity Jane Day event on Saturday, Sept. 15. Dennis Stith of SKW Engineering visited with the council about the city’s application to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources to obtain funds of up to $50,000 for an additional water source for the city of Princeton in an effort to deal with the drought, including the possible construction of a new well.

OP/ED

Five Points by Wendell Lenhart

Back-To-School Already?

Where did the summer go? Back-to-school activities are taking place this week with the start of classes just a little over a week away. The period between Memorial Day and Labor Day seems to go the fastest each year and I’m not even in school anymore. The Bright Futures Trenton program along, with the Grundy County Health Department and others, teamed up earlier this week to provide needed supplies and health screenings for students getting ready Wendell Lenhart to head back to school. Kudos to those persons volunteering to help provide school supplies and clothing to those students in need of starting the school year off on the right foot. ##### I really enjoyed the story on the sports page in last Friday’s paper about the Trenton Independents hosting the Indianapolis Clowns. All of those players were guys I grew up with, although I must point out they are a little older than me. Bob Johnson, Mike Arbuckle, Rich Griffith and Dick Franklin were all great local athletes who went on to success in the college and professional ranks. Many of the other Trenton players were coaches at some point in the Trenton school system as Junior Mullenix, Shane Cavanaugh and Ray Ricono all coached sports here. Even though the Clowns were a traveling team, they were still full of professional players from the Negro League and it was quite an accomplishment for a bunch of local guys to take them on and beat them. It just goes to show you what kind of athletic talent we had around here back in the day. ##### Plans are already under way for the 14th annual Holiday Hoops high school basketball event, which will start on Dec. 15 at the Ketcham Community Center on the North Central Missouri College campus. The event has grown in size and stature every year and there are already 62 schools and 114 teams signed up for this year’s event. A steering committee of local volunteers is already hard at work to make this the best event ever and there are some exciting changes in store.

Suggestions For NCM Fair Letters to the Editor

To The Editor: With the North Central Missouri Fair ending, we have unloaded our cars, trucks and trailers and put our fair items and ribbons in their place. Thanks to all the volunteers who blessed us with their hard, hot, timely work of making the fair a success this year. The fair board provides fair goers with a variety of grandstand entertainment each night and animals in

the barns for children to see. The excitement of the fair from the parade to the rides capturers small town summer life. Wouldn’t it be great to see the circle of the Rock Barn filled with local businesses (Tuesday-Friday nights 5 to 10 p.m.), giving away a balloon to children or a yardstick to adults while showing off what their businesses are famous for: greeting fairgoers with smiles and hometown friendliness. I challenge business owners to consider this option in the summer of 2019. Dorothy Taul Trenton, MO

Who Is Really Benefitting From Lawsuits? by Ralph Voss (published in Linn Unterrified Democrat)

It would be difficult to find someone that has not heard about the duck boat accident near Branson that resulted in the deaths of 17 people. Most people have also heard about the lawsuits filed by family members of those who died.

Guest Editorials

The first lawsuit was filed on behalf of members of the Coleman family from Indiana, which suffered the loss of nine of the 11 family members on the boat at the time it sank. The family is asking for $100 million in damages. A second lawsuit was filed by three daughters of a couple that also died in the accident. In this column I will be focusing on the first lawsuit (the Colemans) because this is where the action will be centered. The cases are interesting for a variety of reasons. First, the principal defendant has virtually unlimited resources — something lawyers refer to as “deep pockets.” The duck boat company that operated the business was purchased recently by Ripley Entertainment, an outgrowth of the old Ripley’s Believe it or Not! Ripley is a very large operation, but small in comparison to its parent, The Jim Pattison Group of Vancouver, Canada. Pattison is the largest car dealer in western Canada, as well as the owner of numerous Peterbilt and John Deere dealerships, along with food and media companies. The parent has 45,000 employees scattered across North America, with annual sales of $10 billion (Canadian). One division of Ripley Entertainment is Great Wolf Lodge, a favorite hangout for our grandkids. It’s worth noting the Coleman family’s attorneys also named Herschend Family Entertainment as a defendant for its role in designing and manufacturing the duck boat that sank last month. Herschend Family is the owner of Silver Dollar City, hence another deep pocket. The civil justice system has been stood on its head by trial lawyers. Is the purpose of the system to give a fair recovery to those who have been damaged by someone’s negligent or intentional acts or is the purpose to enrich trial lawyers? In many cases it’s obvious trial lawyers are much more interested in their fees than their clients’ fair recovery.

Trenton City Council

For the plaintiffs’ attorneys to be justified in charging a contingency fee on the entire amount of money paid by defendant(s), the attorneys legally have to be able to show the plaintiffs were entitled to nothing until the attorneys came on board. Does that make sense? Is there any doubt in your mind Ripley Entertainment would gladly pay an obscene amount of money to put this behind them, regardless of the attorneys on the other side. The attorneys for the Colemans have filed a 45-page petition in federal court laying out the reasons why their clients should recover. The attorneys do a good job… possibly too good for their own good. They try to make it appear — with some success — that they have a slam dunk case. If their case is truly a slam dunk, then where is the justification for their huge fees. Making their fees more unconscionable is that Missouri Attorney General Josh Hawley has confirmed that his office is investigating the case for possible criminal action under Missouri’s consumer protection law. Hawley needs to widen his investigation. No consumers are more in need of protection than clients of trial lawyers. For the attorneys to charge a one-third or 40 percent contingency fee in such a clear-cut case is wrong. A contingency fee is not warranted. Remember, a contingency fee is justified only if there is a possibility of non-recovery and if plaintiffs must wait a long time to recover. In this case the attorneys more than likely will not have to wait long to recover a large amount of money. If they charge one-third or more under those conditions, Hawley should be investigating them. Rest assured Hawley will never do that. He and Claire McCaskill, who will almost certainly be his opponent this fall in the U.S. Senate race, are both compromised by the trial lawyers. But the real culprits here are the members of the Missouri Supreme Court, who should be controlling contingency fees but are not. To get action in this area, the thing to do is vote against the Supreme Court judges up for retention this November. They are Mary Rhodes Russell, who was appointed in 2004 by Democratic Governor Bob Holden, and Wesley Brent Powell, who was named to the court in 2017 by Republican Governor Eric Greitens.

Judy Jackson Les and Lora Jackson were the greeters on Sunday morning, Aug. 5 at the Galt Christian Church and Molly Milazzo and Cole Peterson were the candlelighters. Brian Peterson read the opening scripture from Isaiah 12:1-6 and gave a prayer. The offering was received by Jim Westergaard, Ben Gott, James Gott and Toby Williams with James giving the prayer. The communion devotion was given by Jerry Berry and communion prayers by Opie Peterson and Clitus Meeker. The worship team sang for the special and Stan Richardson gave the message, "Prayers of Power," with scripture from Ephesians 3:1421. Barb Peterson was in charge of pre-school and Les Jackson took shut-in communion. Jerry and Sharon Berry attended the Grundy Electric Co-op supper and meeting on Thursday evening, Aug. 2 in

Mercer. Jerry and Sharon accompanied Stan and Mary Helen Richardson to Unionville on Saturday, Aug. 4 to attend the 150th anniversary of the Unionville Christian Church. Tim Randall was the speaker. Stan and Mary Helen Richardson attended the North Central Missouri Fair last week. They visited on Thursday afternoon at the Sunnyview Nursing Home with residents as well as with Bonnie Peterie, Jackie Owens and Boo and Betty Peterie. Lora Jackson was also a visitor in the Peterie home. Later they visited Bob Wilford and Bob Gott. Everett and Ann Cunningham took Stan, Mary Helen and Judy Jackson out to eat in Trenton on Sunday after church. Stan, Mary Helen and Judy also visited Wilma Michael at Sunnyview Nursing Home. It was Wilma's birthday anniversary. The Richardsons and Judy spent

Cathy Rice At the Shelburne Baptist Church on Sunday, Aug. 5, the special music, “This Is The Promise,” was played for Dick and Carolyn Lanning. Pastor Aaron Stark spoke, using Matthew 24:1-14 as reference. At our house another summer “holy cow” moment has occurred. I have mentioned in my prayers that we are quite all right with just working on survival skills, not death-defying moments. I was hanging out laundry last Thursday and noticed a white flash and thought, "Gee whiz, it doesn't really look like rain. I'll quick get these hung out (and) maybe it'll bring on a shower.” Well, I got a portion hung on the line and then it happened. The hair on my arms, and the hair in my ponytail stood

straight up. At the same time the fillings in my teeth buzzed. Within an instant, there was the loudest boom I've ever heard and white light. I could see nothing. When I realized I wasn't dead, I commenced to running for the house. Once in the house, I was such a girl. I sat in a chair crying and called poor Cowboy Dean. Once his voice made me realize I could talk better without sobbing, I was able to tell him the story. Second strike hit the house of my “daughter-in-love” a mile away, taking out her appliances, several other electrical items and giving everyone quite the scare. We got less than one-tenth of ah inch of rain. And yet we were blessed. No one was harmed. There was no fire and the air conditioners continue to work.

Jordan Cox An ice cream social was hosted by Dockery Chapel United Methodist Church on Saturday evening, Aug. 4. Friends and neighbors of the community enjoyed homemade ice cream and lots of cakes, cookies and brownies. The Sunday morning worship service at the Dockery Chapel Church began with the praise team singing "Come As You Are.” Darbey Franklin and Leola Renshaw lit the candles. Pastor Doug Franklin gave the children's message after the change had been collected for the church mission in Africa. Pastor Franklin mentioned the joys and concerns in our community before he delivered the message,

"The Gospel According to Mark: Price-less.” Anita Fletcher read the scripture taken from Mark 14: 1-11. Communion was given before the song of response, "Amazing Grace," was sung. The morning church service concluded with singing the song, "Now Walk with God". Upcoming activities include the "Fun in the Son" on Aug. 26 to kick off the fall Wednesday night Sunday school classes and will be held immediately following the morning worship service on that day. Hamburgers and hot dogs will be provided and anyone who wishes to attend may bring a side dish for the picnic. Games for the children and adults will follow the meal.

Thank You

There are no words to express our sincere appreciation for the abundance of love, compassion and sympathy that we received in our time of tragedy. We never imagined the enormous amount of support that could come from one small community. The arms of comfort have come from so many sources it is hard to comprehend. So many friends and family at the visitation, funeral, and graveside. Thank you to everyone that brought food, drinks, paper goods and mailing supplies. There was so much food. The flowers, plants and so many, many cards. It is overwhelming. We want to thank Tim, Cherie and Grace Allen and Ed Englert for keeping everything on the home front running smoothly. Also, want to thank Bill and Angie Gutshall for helping where they could. We want to thank Whitaker-Eads Funeral for the wonderful service they supplied. With all the support, compassion and love we received please let us thank God for church ministers like our pastor Kevin Smith from Lifepoint. He was there for us from the very beginning, holding us up spiritually so we couldn't fall. The church service and the graveside service will never be forgotten. We thank all of you from the bottom of our hearts. Love From The Family of Tyler ''Ty'' Gregg Davis

exclusive for Missouri. MU plant breeders found how to make high quality oil with regular plant breeding, no transgenic work. No GMO. MU and USDA own the patent on the oleic bean. Because of their research investment, the Soybean Merchandising Council gains exclusive licensing. In the strip trial session, MU Extension specialists apply research to parts of farmers’ fields across the state. This tests ideas on local soils and climate. Neighbors see the results. The strip trail is a renewed method. Science goes to farms, a Land-Grant mission. The hot topic must be research to alleviate damage caused by off-site movement of weed killer for herbicide-resistant weeds that cut yields. Sometimes corporate products bring new problems. Researchers at land-grant universities independently test them. Farmers depend on that guidance. In a talk at the end of the day, Christopher Daubert, new dean of the MU College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, told of his plan to add value to Missouri commodities. Instead of just selling crops, Missourians can convert them and livestock into food in state. That keeps value close to home. I must stop calling the Dean new. He spoke on the last day of his first year on the job. Next year, every soybean farmer must bring a neighbor to hear soybean research updates. Brag a bit. Send value-added ideas to duanedailey7@gmail.com.

WITH THEIR CHECKOFF DOLLARS, FARMERS ADD SOYBEAN VALUE

Missouri soybean growers invest in their future through research. At a recent Show Me Soy School, farmers shared progress at their Bay Farm a research center near Columbia. Attending, I learned farmers have a lot to brag about. On a program, they printed a tiny but powerful: “Made possible by Missouri soybean farmers and their checkoff.” They should shout that line. Members of the Missouri Soybean Merchandising Council told more. Farmers pitch in half of one percent of their price on every soybean sold. From $1,000 they give $5. A big chunk of their checkoff pays for research. The school told of progress in gaining payback. Already, farmers gain returns. The school had four tracks: Soybean breeding; Certified strip trials, Herbicide Injury and New Soybean Uses. Those show how farmers support University of Missouri soybean research. Farmers bought the Bay Farm adjacent to the MU Bradford Farm. That provides research plots for MU scientists in the Agricultural Experiment Station. That research helps soybean rise to number one cash crop in the state. When I was a farm boy, soybean was a hay crop. This year in a continuing severe drought, I doubt www.republican-times.com

any farmer cut beans for hay. Bean prices were too good. Ironically, corn was cut and baled for forage. Not a common practice. Farmers know soybeans survive droughts. Beans made a good crop in the severe 2012 drought. Farmers hope for a repeat. MU soybean breeders developed a new variety with big value added. They made a bean high in oleic oil. (To say oleic think: Oh Lay Ick. Say it fast.) This oil competes with popular and heart healthy olive oil in cooking. One huge use pursued by MU meat scientists is to feed high oleic soy beans to livestock. That transfers monosaturated fat from plants to animals. Pork, poultry and eggs have potential to become oleic. In the new uses talks, Bryon Wiegand told of his ongoing research on pigs. High oleic fat fed to swine can make better bacon. He pointed out, as consumers we’ve gone crazy for bacon. And, that’s even before bacon becomes a heart healthy food. Wiegand is a scientist, so his feeding trials must be repeated and repeated to assure they work. High oleic soybeans are an

to merge from two lanes to one, mostly at construction sites. One state (I wish I could recall which one!) posted this sign when two lanes had to become one: "Use both lanes to merge point, AND then take turns." It kept traffic flowing and didn't ruffle drivers' feathers. We both commented that it was a sensible solution to the problem. We haven't seen it used since then and now wonder if it was just part of some study. But it was an easy fix for an irritating and potentially hazardous problem, and should become the standard rule for merging. -- Road Warrior Dear Road Warrior: Perhaps the zipper merge would catch on more if there were signs such as these, concisely explaining the concept and giving drivers permission to use it. It's a wonder more states haven't tried this. Thanks for writing in.

Dear Annie: I have a friend, "Rosie," who kicked me out to the curb (metaphorically speaking) when her sister moved into her mobile home park. Prior to her sister's moving into the neighborhood, Rosie and I saw a lot of each other. I was always sewing for Rosie, her husband and her motherin-law at little or no cost. I sent food to her after her surgery. I helped Rosie's sister with planning Rosie's 60th birthday party. Meanwhile, when I had health issues and told her, she didn't contact me afterward to see how I was. When I had a baby shower for my daughter, she did not attend. Then she promised she'd send a gift after the arrival of the baby, but she never did. She now only calls me on her way to work. I started to distance myself from her, and it didn't seem to faze her. This has been going on for almost a year now. After several weeks of not hearing from her she texted me to sew her husband's pants. I have thought of confronting her, as I am very hurt by how she has treated me. Do

you think I should end this friendship? -- Forgotten Friend Dear Forgotten Friend: No one can read your mind, not even your closest friend. Rosie probably has no idea you're feeling this way. She does still call you, after all: You say "only" on her way to work, but that's pretty darn often. So she's been busier over the last year, and, yes, maybe spending a lot of time with her sister that she previously would have spent with you. That doesn't mean she's replaced you. Talk to her about how you're feeling, but avoid making accusations or placing the blame on her. Instead, tell her that you miss her and have felt out of her loop for the past year. If she continues being distant after the talk, there's no need to lash out. Simply take it as your cue to move on and focus more on yourself and on fostering new friendships. Dear Annie: "Merging Maven" has prodded me to write. My husband and I have driven in all 50 states over the years, and have had many discussions about the proper way

Cashing in on queso Chipotle is trying to churn its queso into gold. The Mexican food chain, which added the cheesy dip to its menu almost a year ago in September, says the item is getting people to spend more. In the latest quarter, Chipotle says customers adding queso to orders helped drive up sales 3.3 percent at established locations. But that alone doesn’t seem enticing enough to bring in more customers. Even though sales were up as a result of price hikes and queso add-ons, customer visits were down. The addition of

queso was part of Chipotle’s plan to win back customers after a series of food scares. New CEO Brian Niccol plans to continue introducing new menu items — that’s a change from before the food scares, when Chipotle prided itself on its simple menu. Among the dishes it’s testing: nachos, quesadillas and an “avocado tostada,” the chain’s take on avocado toast. Jefferies analyst Andy Barish cited the chain’s potential to boost sales through factors including new products, digital ordering and delivery, and raised his rating to “buy” from “hold.”

Something To Think About VINCE NEAL

DIRECTOR

PURPOSE OF TERM INSURANCE

Term life insurance is bought for a specified period of time, a TERM. The policy expires when the term runs out. Many term policies expire at age 65, others after five or twenty years from date of purchase. Term life insurance does not build up any equity. There is no cash value to the policy. Monthly premiums simply keep the death benefit in force. If you happen to survive the term of the policy, you’re back to ground zero. Term insurance is like paying rent rather than buying a house. Term policies can, and do, meet a real need for some persons at a particular point in their

lives when funds are minimal and insurance needs are great. There are some expensive obligations in life, such as a house or business, which, if we live long enough, will be met by the income from our labors. Starting out, many young people often buy short-term policies to assure the obligation will be met in case they die before they can pay off these obligations themselves.
