Trenton Selected For Grant Program The Trenton Downtown Improvement Association has been selected in a competitive application process to participate in a cost-sharing affiliate grant that provides training, mentoring and technical services to revitalization programs in Missouri’s historic commercial districts. The grant is being provided by the Missouri Main Street Connection, Inc. MMSC staff will visit with Trenton’s downtown community leaders to evaluate existing and future needs of the downtown, then schedule a series of customized training and mentoring sessions to assist those leaders in concentrating on their local revitalization goals. “Trenton has great potential in their historic downtown and MMSC is excited to work with their organization in order to achieve success,” MMSC State Director Gayla Roten said. The goal of the grant is the development of a sustainable, volunteer-based organization that will carry out an economic development program based on the preservation of historic assets in the downtown, using the Main Street FourPoint Approach® to Revitalization. With support from MMSC, the Trenton revitalization group anticipates: • Building on previous revitalization efforts to motivate economic develop-

ment in the district. • Utilizing a volunteer base and strong partnerships to accomplish the organization’s goals for downtown. • Showcasing the community’s unique architecture and history to attract both residents and visitors to experience the historic district. During the next two years MMSC will provide Trenton with training and mentoring to establish a revitalization organization that will engage the entire community as a participant and beneficiary. The group also will attend regional revitalization workshops and conferences conducted by MMSC. The affiliate grant is a 40/60 match, requiring the community to contribute 40 percent of the cash value of the services. The total value of the grant in training and mentoring services is $24,000. Trenton is now also designated as an affiliate in the Missouri Main Street Tier Structure, which ranks progress on standards established by the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s Main Street Center. Throughout its history, MMSC has served over 178 Missouri communities. ********** As the new executive director of the Trenton Downtown Improvement Association, Megan Derry will be working with the implementation of the
Missouri Main Street concept to help revitalize downtown Trenton. Ms. Derry, a native of Trenton, began her duties on Monday. As executive director of the TDIA, her main focus will be to grow the downtown Trenton area, working with both existing and future businesses as well as the North Central Missouri Development Alliance and the Trenton Area Chamber of Commerce. She will develop special events for the downtown area which, in turn, will bring people to visit and shop downtown. “I have always wanted to come back home and give back to the community,” Ms. Derry said. “This is a great opportunity for me to do that and help preserve the historic downtown area. I am eager to get started and see the downtown move forward.” Her job will also include working with the city’s Historic Preservation Committee, which has been meeting to establish a historic downtown district. She noted that historic preservation is important in the downtown area and is an important part of the Main Street Missouri concept. Ms. Derry will be involved in two Main Street Missouri trainings within the next two weeks - one which takes place in Trenton on Wednesday. She will also be traveling to Excelsior Springs on Feb. 22 to attend a work-

Expansion Considered
Charter Schools Draw Mixed Reviews JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Some parents are praising legislation that would expand charter schools in Missouri, while administrators for traditional public schools are raising concerns that they will drain resources. Republican Rep. Rebecca Roeber, of Lee's Summit, has introduced a bill that would allow charter schools in any city with more than 30,000 residents, the Columbia Missourian reports . Currently, charters are mostly limited to students residing in the Kansas
City and St. Louis districts, as well as those in unaccredited school systems. "I am not against traditional public schools," Roeber said. "However, when they are not working for kids, families should have other options." During a hearing this past week before the House Committee on Elementary and Secondary Education, several parents, teachers and education stakeholders shared emotional testimony about how school choice has opened access to quality education.
GREAT NORTHWEST DAY AT THE CAPITOL
Carmen Ward said her son, who has autism and intellectual disabilities, bounced around public and private elementary schools in St. Louis for years. She said it wasn't until he reached fifth grade that Ward found somewhere that met his special educational needs: KIPP, which is short for the Knowledge is Power Program, part of a national nonprofit network of public charter schools.

Serious Injuries In Accident
FUTURES TRADING CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE
A Princeton man sustained serious injuries in an accident involving a farm tractor and a tractor trailer just north on Princeton on Friday. According to Missouri State Highway Patrol Trooper J.E. Hainey, the accident occurred as the farm tractor driven by Gilbert E. Lawson of Princeton and a tractor-tractor driven by Timothy D. Spickard of Trenton were both southbound on Highway 65, four miles miles north of Princeton. The tractor was traveling partially on the shoulder and partially on the roadway. Lawson began making a left turn into a private drive as Spickard was attempting to pass the tractor. Spickard’s vehicle struck the tractor in the northbound lane of the highway, causing Lawson to be ejected. The tractor came to rest on its wheels facing northwest. Spickard’s tractor-trailer continued southbound on Highway 65, traveling off the east side of the road and overturning on the driver’s side, facing south. Lawson sustained serious injuries and was taken by Mercer County Ambulance to Wright Memorial Hospital in Trenton. Spickard escaped injury in the mishap. Both vehicles were towed from the scene, with the tractor being demolished and the tracotrtrailer sustaining extensive damage. Trooper Hainey was assisted by Sgt. Doug Little, the Mercer County Sheriff’s Department and the Missouri Department of Conservation.

SPORTS NCAA FOOTBALL
National Signing Day
New Coaches At K-State, KU Wrap Up Recruiting Classes LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Les Miles spent the final night ahead of national signing day ensconced in a conference room inside the Kansas football facility, working his cell phone to piece together the last pieces of his initial class with the Jayhawks. Just down the Interstate 70, Chris Klieman was busy doing the same thing at Kansas State, pausing only to rile up the crowd at halftime of the Wildcats' basketball game against their bitter rival. All of which seemed fitting. Miles and Klieman were hired late last year to turn around programs fallen on hard times, the former one of the worst in college football and the latter after it slipped the past couple of seasons under Hall of Famer Bill Snyder. And that meant both were forced to not only build a staff but land a recruiting class that could lay the foundation for that purpose. "We started late. I took my time hiring this staff and it cost us a little," Miles said. "The things we wanted to do in the short term was those needs
the team had to have and had to have quickly." The Jayhawks finished off a 19member class Thursday, the first day of the February signing period. Many of them signed during the early period in December, including touted junior college quarterback Thomas MacVittie, but the rest committed over the past couple of months. They wound up being the gems of the class. Four-star prospect Steven Parker, a 6-foot-4, 225-pound defensive end out of Texas was perhaps the most highly sought. He was the state's defensive player of the year, an imposing physical presence that not only filled a crucial need but also began a foothold in the talent-rich state. Miles wasn't done in Texas, either. He landed three-star athlete Velton Gardner out of perennial powerhouse Dallas Skyline, fulfilling the coach's desire to get faster and more athletic. Miles then plucked a late addition in physical running back Amauri Pesek-Hickson from the Kansas City
suburb of Overland Park. He had been a longtime commitment to Michigan before backing out when the Wolverines asked him to attend prep school and sign with next year's class instead. Pesek-Hickson punted that opportunity and jumped on the rebuilding process at Kansas. "I think physical football has to be played by big men at some point in time. Even the wide receivers, looking at height and size," Miles said. "I think it's necessary at some point in time." Another priority? Locking down the Midwest. That naturally led to a head-tohead showdown with his Kansas State counterpart. Oklahoma linebacker Gavin Potter had been committed to the Wildcats for a while, but Texas Tech had started to make inroads with a new coaching staff. When signing day dawned, it was the Jayhawks who swept into Broken Arrow and swiped away the middle linebacker prospect.
"That was certainly a very competitive recruiting process," Miles said. "I think there was an attachment in a lot of different ways to this school. ... It appeared to me that he was going to have interest, and sometimes in recruiting it becomes important certain guys come." Klieman dealt with a couple of staff changes late in the cycle, losing his initial defensive coordinator pick to an NFL job and one of his defensive position coaches to West Virginia. But he still added seven more prospects to his early signing list, including speedy wide receiver Joshua Youngblood and help at three crucial areas: running back, defensive back and defensive line. The top prospect could be threestar running back Thomas Grayson out of Booker T. Washington in Tulsa, Oklahoma. It's the same school that produced Kansas State standout Tyler Lockett, and gives the Wildcats help at a position that returns exactly zero scholarship players next season. Clyde Price, a bruising running
back from Kansas City, also signed during the late period. The defensive side showed that Klieman is willing to cast a wider net than Snyder's staffs did. Matthew Pola-Mao is from Arizona, fellow defensive tackle Kenny Givens from Chicago, three-star safety Tyrone Lewis is from Louisiana and cornerback Kenyon Reed from California. "We're still going to hammer the footprint area, which is Kansas, Missouri, the state of Texas is always going to be big," Klieman said, "but you have to be able to nationally recruit. Kansas State has a national name, national brand, so to get a few kids from other areas is great." The work doesn't stop for Miles or Klieman anytime soon. Both coaches said they plan to turn their attention toward offseason programs and spring ball, and building cohesiveness within the staffs. But they also will be back on the recruiting trail, laying the foundation for their second classes and first with a full cycle at their disposal.
INSURANCE CORNER by Robert Barnes Broker/CEO
Long-Term Strategies When long-term-care insurance policy holders are faced with premium hikes, there are ways to lower costs without appreciably reducing coverage. One of the easiest ways to cut premiums is to reduce the coverage term, which may be a particularly good option for those with policies that provide lifetime benefits. Reducing coverage to three or five years still provides enough protection to cover the average claim period. Another cost-cutting option involves reducing the policy's inflation protection from 5% to 3%, depending on the policyholder's age and how much his or her coverage has increased. If the daily benefit has risen appreciably since the time it was purchased, older policyholders, in particular, may find that they can afford to reduce the inflation protection. At ROBERT BARNES INSURANCE AGENCY, we have over three decades of experience in working with senior products. To learn more, please call 660-359-5973. We assure that you are well informed of the options available, which allows you to be comfortable in the decisions you must make about your health care coverage. Our office is located at 915 E.

choices. I don't want to destroy my family with telling him to leave, but I feel backed into a corner. I have tried counseling several times, but he refuses to go. Any suggestions? -- Trying to Do the Right Thing Dear Trying: Kudos to your friends for their good advice. They're right that you can't control your husband and should not feel guilty for the things he does. Realize, too, that threatening to leave him is not a way to control his drinking. If you truly mean to leave him because you yourself cannot be around his toxic behavior anymore, that's one thing. But if your saying you'll leave him is really an attempt to get him to quit drinking, that's not a good reason. You will end up more exasperated than ever when things don't change. Your husband's excuse that he owns a restaurant and must be able to recommend wines is just that -- an excuse. Someone else could always taste the wines for him. Your husband drinks because, from the sound of it, he has alcoholism. It is as simple and as frustrating and heartbreaking as that. I urge you to find some support

DOWN 1 Where 2/3 of Hawaiians live
Dear Annie: I have been married for 25 years. My husband grew up in a foreign country and has been drinking alcohol his whole life. He drinks beer the way I drink water. He is in the restaurant business and must be able to recommend wine to his customers, so giving up alcohol is not an option. The problem is that once in a while when he gets home, I will seriously question whether he should have driven home. We have been arguing over this forever. I used to argue he needed to stop drinking. Now I just say he should not drive home if he has had too much. My begging has not made a difference. I have explained that if he were to hurt himself or someone else, I would feel guilty that I did not do more to stop him. I have now told him that if he drives home drunk again, he can move out, because I cannot live with this. He thinks I'm just being overreactive and I should not blow up our marriage and family over this. He does admit it is not OK. I am at a loss as to the next step. Friends tell me I can't control him and should not feel guilty if he makes bad

through a group such as AlAnon (https://al-anon.org) or SMART Recovery Family & Friends (https://www.smartrecovery.org/family). I think you'll be amazed by what a weight it takes off just being in a room with people who understand what you're going through. And with some of that weight off, you'll be able to think more clearly about what's best for you. Dear Annie: This is in response to "Mulling Over Memoir." You advised her to start interviewing her father about his memories. I took a recorder to my dad's and listened while he told me some of the things that he did; then I typed up the transcripts. I'm so glad I did. It was nice for the grandkids to be able to read about how he lived. I also did this with my husband, who was older and had served in World War II. He didn't think that what he had to tell was very interesting, but once I persuaded him to talk, I found out things that I never had during the 28 years we'd been married. "Mulling Over Memoir," good luck with interviewing your dad. And then remember that even your life will be of interest to the next generation sometime. Write about your own life, too. -- Phyllis Dear Phyllis: Fantastic advice. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Monetizing podcasts PriceWaterhouseCoopers figure that sum will reach $659 million by 2020. The vast majority of podcasts are available almost everywhere. Apple offers more than 500,000 podcasts through its iPhone app. Spotify is second, with Overcast and Stitcher following. But only about 7,000 podcasts carry ads, according to the ad placement firm Magellan. Analysts Justine and Olivia Moore of the venture capital firm CRV say podcast ad marketplaces have only just appeared, so most U.S. creators who want to get paid solicit contributions directly from consumers via Patreon. It claims to serve more than 2,000 podcasters.
Podcasts aren’t quite mainstream — fewer than one in five Americans listen to them at least once a week, according to Edison Research and Triton Digital. But Spotify is betting they’ll hit the big time soon enough. In one of the biggest podcast wagers to date, the music-streaming service snapped up Gimlet and Anchor, which respectively make podcasts and provide podcasting-making tools and hosting. Together, the two companies are reportedly valued at around $350 million — more than the podcasting industry’s estimated 2017 ad revenues of $314 million. The Interactive Ad Bureau and 50% 40

event chairman Micah Landes said. “Once again, the steering committee put on a wonderful evening of entertainment and education, highlighting our great communities, explaining our challenges, and showcasing our goods and flairs to all members of the legislature.” Volunteers from across the region began planning for the event in August 2018.

I was born and raised in Trenton and am a 1967 graduate of Trenton High School and a 1969 graduate of Trenton Junior College/North Central Missouri College. My father was Johnny Crooks, a former Trenton City Councilman. My mother was Pauline Crooks Vaughn and my step-father was Merle Vaughn, who was an auctioneer and also worked for the Rock Island Railroad. Henry Crooks, who owned Crooks Grocery on Pleasant Plain, was also a relative of mine.
After a 44-year career in teaching, I have returned to my hometown to live and work. I have purchased a building at 1000 Tinsman in downtown Trenton that I am renovating to house a new business. I am also volunteering and a member of several organizations including Holiday Hoops, Trenton Downtown Improvement Association, Trenton Area Chamber of Commerce and the NCMC Foundation.
I am excited about the future of Trenton, and I want to help keep it moving forward. I am professional, passionate, and a team-builder.
I need YOUR Vote on April 2nd!

"When we are faced with charter school expansion down the road, that could take kids away in an unpredictable way that I can't plan for," said Kearney school district superintendent Bill Nicely. "This bill doesn't provide a level playing field for choice to occur in a responsible way." Rep. Chuck Basye, RRocheport, who is the vice chairman of the committee, said he is in favor of the intent behind the bill. "I'm very supportive of parental choice, whether it be for a public, private or charter school," he said.
