sources state parks. Gov. Parson also announced the creation of a lottery for farmers interested in haying, free of charge, on almost 900 acres of Missouri State Parks lands. Up to 5,000 gallons of water may be pumped daily, per family farm. Water is available for livestock needs only and not for resale. Farmers will need to provide their own pumping and hauling equipment. To make arrangements to pump water, call 573-751-4115, ext. 3209. Additional information, along with maps showing locations for the pumping of water and for haying, are available at https://dnr.mo.gov/droughtre-

Additional details are available at https://mostateparks.com/. Both programs are for Missouri landowners only. On July 18 Gov. Parson issued Executive Order 18-05, which declared a drought alert for 47 Missouri counties. As of Aug. 14, every county in Missouri has been affected by dry to exceptionally dry conditions, and 86 counties are now considered to be in drought alert.
Free screenings in September
September is National Cholesterol Awareness Month. The Daviess County Health Department (DCHD) is offering a FREE Lipid Panel for Daviess County residents on the following dates in September from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.: Tuesday, Sept. 4; Tuesday, Sept. 11; Tuesday, Sept. 18. This is a fasting test and you must not eat or drink after midnight prior to the tests. Because this is a screening, you will not need to obtain a doctor’s order or call for an appointment. You must be 18 years old or older, walk in on the above dates between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. and be fasting. Results will be mailed to you. The cholesterol screening (lipid panel) includes the following; total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, HDL, and cardiac risk ratio. The regular lab price for a lipid panel is $110; your cost is $0. High blood cholesterol is a major risk factor for heart disease and stroke, the leading causes of death in the United States. Lowering cholesterol levels reduces the risk of heart disease death among persons either with or without coronary heart disease. The DCHD board and staff feel it’s important to educate our public and offer these special screenings as much as possible to help our community be more informed, because prevention and education is the key to good health. If you have questions please feel free to call the health department at 660-663-2414.
The Gallatin Police Department has received several complaints lately regarding satellite TV sales people going door to door pressuring people to change satellite services. Gallatin Police Chief Mark Richards says this is the latest solicitation going on in town, and it is a violation of city ordinances. “We have had meat sales and magazine sales in the past, among others,” he says. “Most of the residents in Gallatin know doorto-door solicitation isn’t allowed, so once they hit town we start getting phone calls pretty fast.” It is against the law for anyone to go door to door in Gallatin attempting to sell a product or service. Church groups, for instance Jehovah’s Witness, which provide literature and aren’t trying to sell anything, are allowed. “But if they are on your door step and you ask them to leave, they have to leave,” says Chief Richards. The police department makes exceptions for local groups, like students from the school or boy scouts. “Those are ones we know and trust and we work with them,” Chief Richards says. He adds that vendors can receive a day permit to sit on the square. Also, vendors are allowed to visit a home if the home owner sets up an appointment, like the Schwan’s truck. If you have someone come to your home trying to sell you a product or service, call the Gallatin Police Department and provide them with as much information as you can. An officer will attempt to contact that subject and stop them from soliciting others. The phone number for the police is 660-663-3580.
Free plane rides Aug. 25
A Fly-In/Drive-In will be Saturday, Aug. 25, at the Chillicothe Municipal Airport, Chillicothe. This event provides funds to pay for participant expenses to attend Advance Air Academy. Load up the children and come out the airport for an enjoyable day of family fun. Remember to bring your lawn chairs. The Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) breakfast begins at 7 a.m. The opening ceremonies are at 8 a.m., followed by Young Eagle rides, weather permitting.
A parent or guardian must be present to sign a release form for children 8 to 17 to take the free airplane ride. Adult rides will be available with a donation. Activities include face painting for children under eight. There will be many great raffle items. You might even win a $100 bill if you buy $25, which is equal to 30 tickets (one goes into a special drawing pot.) Lunch will be provided by Wabash BBQ starting at 11 a.m. For more information, contact Cathie Hamilton at 660-646-8850.
MDC confirms invasive Emerald Ash Borer in 11 new counties Foresters with the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC), in conjunction with the Missouri and U.S. departments of agriculture, have confirmed the presence of Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) in 11 new counties across Missouri. New detections have been confirmed in Adair, Callaway, Cape Girardeau, Cole, Greene, Jefferson, Lewis, Lincoln, Pike, Polk, and Warren counties. Since EAB was first detected in Missouri in July 2008, the exotic, tree-killing pest has spread to a total of 53 Missouri counties and the City of St. Louis. EAB is a small, metallic green beetle native to Asia that only attacks ash trees. The adult beetle does very little damage. In its larval stage, however, EAB bores into the vascular layer of ash trees, creating distinct S-shaped galleries that slowly cut off the trees’ flow of water
and nutrients and eventually cause the trees to die. Unfortunately, EAB kills more than 99% of the ash trees it attacks within 3-4 years of infestation. MDC Forest Entomologist Robbie Doerhoff urges people who own ash trees in areas where EAB has been found to make a plan now to either treat or remove those trees. “If you have a healthy, highvalue ash tree in your yard, it can be treated with insecticides that will protect it from EAB. However, these treatments must be applied every year or two to guarantee protection,” said Doerhoff. “For some ash trees, especially those that have already lost more than 50% of their leaves and branches, the best option is removal, followed by replanting with a different species, such as an oak native to Missouri.” Several insecticide treatment options are available, includ-
Adult Emerald Ash Borers (EAB) are a half-inch long and dark, metallic green. Learn how to identify this invasive pest by visiting the website eab.missouri.edu.
The invasive, exotic Emerald Ash Borer has been detected in 11 new Missouri counties (shown in green), bringing its total spread to 53 Missouri counties and the City of St. Louis (as of July 24, 2018). Among those known infested counties are Dekalb and Clinton counties, just west of Daviess County, and Ray County not far to the south.
ing some do-it-yourself methods. However, it’s important to note that insecticides available at home improvement stores work best on trees smaller than 20-inches in trunk diameter (measured 4.5-feet from the ground). Trees larger than 20-inches in trunk diameter require insecticides available only to licensed applicators in order to provide adequate protection from EAB. “If you decide to treat your ash tree, make sure you use a pesticide labeled to kill EAB and

Aug. 22, 2018
Feeling compassion by Freida Marie Crump
A self-inflicted problem It’s strange but when speaking to farm friends about the Trump Administration, I am somewhat surprised whenever I hear support for our President when the topic turns to tariffs. Hang with me for a little bit, and I’ll try to explain. Forty years ago Liz and I moved our mobile home from Grant City to call Gallatin our home. We had a dream to own a county seat newspaper. We wanted to raise our family in an attractive, stable farming community. In many respects our weekly newspaper operation is actually like a farm: long hours, various challenges, and personal satisfaction too often the currency to pocket rather than actual dollars. On this level of business, there’s no substantial payback until you grow old and sell the farm. Being an independent family operation is not the best business model anymore. But if your goal is raising good kids then at least, in my humble opinion, there’s nothing better than farming in the fields or what you can produce on newsprint rolls. Farming has changed so much these past four decades. So has journalism. New disrupters that squeeze the industry make every ripple of change felt on the small, independent operator. So things once considered far away from local day-to-day operations are now very much in focus. Before venturing any further, let’s clarify one thing: A tariff is a tax. So, yes, it surprises me that some of my farm friends defend Trump’s deliberate escalation of international tariffs since farm prices are most likely to take a hit. And I admire my farm friends for that. It strikes me that patriotism still plays above self interest here in the fly-over part of the country we call home. When Liz and I set up shop here in Gallatin, I never thought international trade would play any important part in this little weekly newspaper operation. I am sensitive to whining about our circumstances while so many farm neighbors seem so determined to carry-on carrying-on. But I feel compelled to

speak to one point. There is at least one difference between the tariffs farmers face and that pending against journalists. Farm tariffs escalate when used against other countries, in retaliation for various “us vs. them” scenarios. The threatening tariff on newsprint is self-inflicted for a narrow selfinterest.
O the Editor s S ike
by Darryl Wilkinson
Our government responded to a lawsuit by a single paper mill, owned by a New York investment firm, alleging that the Canadian competition was affecting its profits. Last January, the Department of Commerce slapped a tariff on Canadian newsprint, and then hit it again in March. The International Trade Commission (ITC) has allowed the tax to stay in place while it investigates. Gallatin Publishing acquires Canadian newsprint by the truckload in doing its business. Most newspaper printers throughout the Midwest do likewise. So, even though it’s not yet confirmed that the tariff will be upheld, the tax is already into play. For much of this year, American printers have been receiving continual price increases of more than 30% on the paper they use to print their editions. Thus far, GPC has found ways to absorb or delay passing on this cost to its customers despite watching the price on a short ton of newsprint increase from $651 to $739 since January. Prospects to rescind the tax dimmed. Then earlier this month, some hope. The federal government said the tariffs could be lowered somewhat in September, but that the tax would (only) be about 20%. This newsprint price increase is very hard for small town newspapers to absorb. We know this Offering
personally as publishers of the Gallatin newspaper. GPC prints publications both larger and smaller than our community weekly newspaper but without exception any cost increase will force immediate consequence. It is the ITC that ultimately decides whether this tariff will continue. An announcement could come this week. The ITC’s job is to figure out whether the tariff will help U.S. producers. The five U.S. mills certainly face challenges. Like my farmer friends, I endorse changes that protect American interests for a greater good. But the challenges for U.S. newsprint producers come from the fact that most large newspapers have dramatically cut back on paper usage. There is less demand for newsprint in the U.S., so lower prices have resulted. It is not unfair competition, but natural market forces, while digital editions take over the larger newspaper world that affects the papermakers. American newspapers have used Canadian paper for more than a century. Even with newsprint demand in decline, it simply isn’t possible in the continental U.S. to make enough newsprint to supply the needs of U.S. newspaper readers. A tariff to punish Canada won’t create more U.S. papermaking jobs. Larger publications will move faster to digital so they can buy less paper. Smaller ones like mine, will simply shrink. Some may go away entirely, leaving their towns with no local paper. This tariff on newsprint — or the economic ripples already impacting decisions from just talking about the possibility of a tariff — hurts Gallatin Publishing Company and small newspapers like the North Missourian. As an independent American publishing business that prides itself on putting community first, the problem seems self-inflicted. Would someone please explain to me what’s patriotic about accepting this new tax initiated by our government against our Canadian neighbors to benefit one American producer?

Greetings from Poosey. They asked Michael what had inspired him to make such a journey. He said, “We’re put here to help. When people need help it really doesn’t matter who they are or where they live.” The lean and muscular young man couldn’t stay but a moment as the reporters crowded around him and his fellow firefighters at the California airport. “Sorry,” he said. “Got some work to do,” and he hurried to jump in an awaiting SUV that would transport him to the very heart of the biggest fire in this part of the state’s history. Michael and his 12 mates were from Australia and New Zealand, and within a few days another 140 Aussie and Kiwi firefighters would be arriving in California. They’d traveled 8,600 miles to put their lives on the line for people whom they didn’t know and a country in which they didn’t live. Rob Gore came from the Australian capital of Canberra. He said, “This thing is massive. Everything is 100 times scale.” Gore said it wasn’t unusual for firefighters to deploy across the globe. He said, “Canadians and Americans regularly fight fires in our country.” Australia and the U.S. have had an international arrangement for 18 years. Paul Baxter, the fire commissioner for New South Wales Fire and Rescue in Australia said, “This is just another battle, and this is on your home soil. To be able to come and work alongside United States crews is a fantastic country-to-country thing to do.” Chief Patrick Shipp organized five fire engines to be sent from California. “If you know how to fight a wildland fire in the state of Texas, you know how to fight one in Oregon, Washington, and California,” Shipp said. One of Shipp’s men, Orlando Zepeda is one of 90 men who headed toward California. “I feel like a have a privilege to go help out the residents in California,” he said. “It’s not everyday you get to go to California and go help your brothers out there. Fire is fire, and we’re there to go do our jobs.” When Hurricane Katrina devastated the South in 2005, Russia was one of the first countries to send aid in the form of 60 tons of supplies, including food rations, tents, blankets, medicine and a rescue helicopter. When Hurricane Sandy tore up the East Coast, Russia stepped up with 50 tons in humanitarian aid. Joplin, Missouri, lost six schools in the catastrophic tornado of 2011. Two weeks later the public school system received a phone call telling them that the United Arab Republics was sending 2000 MacBooks for the students. And while they were at it, the UAR spent $5 billion to build a neonatal intensive-care unit at the town’s Mercy Hospital, which had been destroyed in the storm. No one knows for sure why the country of Turkey has always taken such an interest in Native Americans but they donated $200,000 to build a water tank for the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs Reservation in Oregon. Venezuela donates millions of gallons of heating oil to needy American families each year through the CITGO state-owned natural gas company. Larry Goldstein, president of the Petroleum Industry Research Foundation claims that the program is “designed to embarrass us.” Don’t tell that to the families who stayed warm due to Venezuelan oil last year. Jumping back to April of 2010 when the Deepwater Horizon oil rig killed 11 crew members and unleashed a barrage of toxic oil into the environment spilling 42,000 gallons of oil into the Gulf of Mexico each day, the countries offering assistance included Canada, Mexico, South Korea, Croatia, France, Germany, Ireland, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Romania, Russia, Spain, The UAE, the United Kingdom and Viet Nam. Perhaps one of the most touching instances of international assistance came in the wake of 9/11 when Kimeli Naihomah, a Masai from southern Kenya returned home and told his fellow Masai of the horrors he’d seen. The Masai decided they wanted to help the people of the United States by donating as many cows as they could spare. The village elders blessed the twelve cows then turned them over to William Brancick at the U.S. Embassy who told them the cows would be difficult to transport so the Masai sold the cattle and sent the money. It would be convenient to swallow the tale that foreign aid is a one-way street, but it would be a lie. People are people, no matter their location and compassion is not a quality that’s confined to our borders. You ever ‘round Poosey, stop by. We may not answer the door but you’ll enjoy the trip.

More about the old Swofford neon Ford sign...
Dear Darryl, Thanks for pointing me to the 1985 Daviess County Historical book about Don Swofford opening the Ford dealership in 1958. This week I found out even more. I’ve always suspected that the sign maker, Federal Brilliant of St. Louis, was part of Federal Electric Sign Company. I am correct. Federal Electric Sign was the one who raced over to France when neon signs were invented and patented by George Claude. They secured the patent rights to produce neon signs here in the states. Federal Electric eventually morphed into Federal-Heath and they’re still in business big time. Their HQ is in Dallas and I found a guy there who’s very interested in historical stuff just like us. This guy is the archivist for the company and he helped author a book that tracks the company’s history from their founding in 1901 up to 2015. He delved into it today and found that in 1930, Federal Electric Sign of Chicago bought a sign company in St. Louis called Brilliant Signs. They renamed the company Federal Brilliant. I can’t remember if I told you about the brass electricians’ union label I found attached to my sign. It had this number stamped into it: 112233, which stands for 11/22/1933. I thought it had to be a date stamp because it wasn’t until very late in 1933 that a German scientist discovered how to make white neon (and a bunch of other colors). Just as soon as Ford learned that white was available, they went straight to it, probably sometime in 1934. My sign and others made by other sign companies used red and blue neon because that’s all they had. It may very well be that my sign was a oneoff. That fact alone could ordinarily cause suspicion among collectors as to whether or not it’s genuine. But the photo of the sign hanging on Swofford’s dealership building in Gallatin helps prove it’s legit. If the sign was indeed a one-off, there’s no telling how valuable it might turn out to be. A collector friend of mine from Illinois just sent me to an auction website where another sign collector’s estate was being sold. In that sale was a Ford sign like mine, made by Federal Brilliant Co.

Missouri physicians oppose marijuana ballot questions
with the teal colored oval ring. It’s the same sign as mine but it’s in horrible condition -- no neon or supporting hardware and beat up, rust-stained faces. As recently as last week, my communications with the Operations Manager at Federal Heath (distantly related to Federal Brilliant) and I were thinking that my sign may have been a one-off. But I guess we just settled that question. Now we know at least two were made, but only mine has the accompanying provenance. Mine will hang in my new shop someday. So, now I have one last detail to complete my quest. From the sign’s date of manufacture, Nov. 11, 1933, until Swofford opened his dealership in 1958, I’d like to find out where the sign spent 25 years before Don Swofford got it. The book we looked at last week mentioned that some guy named Moore was instrumental in helping Swofford obtain the dealership. Do you know anything about this Moore guy and whether or not he had that Ford dealership and sold it to Don? Chris Kuchem Ph: 913.244.3322 email: kuchem@live.com Editor’s note: Conversations about the neon sign Mr. Kuchem acquired from Don Swofford have been exchanged, with letters from Chris published in this newspaper in Jan. 10th and Aug. 1st editions. This letter adds to the story. Chris still seeks to copy any old photograph showing the sign as it hung on the original dealership building prior to the Swofford Ford dealership. He also seeks to buy a copy of the blue hardback history book, “125 Years with the Gallatin North Missourian” which is no longer in circulation.
The Missouri State Medical Association (MSMA) released the following statement this past week: The Missouri State Medical Association opposes the three “medical” marijuana ballot questions that will be offered to Missouri voters in November. MSMA acknowledges there are a limited number of patients who may receive limited relief from minor pain and nausea, but numerous studies have identified negative health effects for a large number of diagnoses. Until the DEA reclassifies marijuana to allow extensive scientific research, MSMA remains concerned Missourians will be gambling with their health using an unregulated drug. Editor’s note: MSMA, the state’s largest physician organiza tion, is the voice of physicians, residents, and medical students who strive to protect the health of the public in Missouri. Visit www.msma.org.
EAB in 53 counties (continued from page 1) that you apply it at the right time of year,” said Doerhoff. “Chemical treatments are most effective in early spring when a tree’s vascular system is better able to take up the insecticide. In late summer, and especially during drought conditions like we’re currently experiencing across most of Missouri, treatments may not work properly.” Doerhoff advises that now is a good time to develop a plan, and if appropriate, contact a professional to get on a list for a spring treatment. For large trees that need to be treated by a professional, use a reputable company and get a couple of bids. Some neighborhoods receive discounts if several people have ash trees treated by the same company.
Ash trees that are removed should be disposed of locally to prevent the accidental spread of EAB to new locations. EAB can emerge from ash firewood and logs for up to two years after harvest, so don’t give EAB a free ride to your favorite camping locations. Buy firewood near where you plan to burn it! For more information on protecting your ash tree from EAB, download the Emerald Ash Borer Management Guide for Missouri Homeowners at short.mdc. mo.gov/ZSq. MDC encourages Missourians to learn to identify signs of EAB and report possible infestations. Call MDC’s Forest Pest Hotline at 866-716-9974, or email forest.health@mdc.mo.gov.

Give drought committee your input! By Tim Baker, UM Regional Horticulturist
On July 18, Governor Mike Parson asked the Missouri Department of Natural Resources to activate the Drought Assessment Committee. This committee consists of state and federal partner agencies, as well as the University of Missouri. Governor Parson also issued an Executive Order at that time declaring a drought alert for 47 Missouri counties. The committee has met twice, on July 26 and Aug. 8. If you want more details, I have a link to the committee’s web page on my drought resources web page: http://extension. missouri.edu/nwhort/drought. aspx. I also have a link to an extended version of this column, to fill you in on the many good efforts that the organizations that comprise the committee are doing to help Missouri residents. The organizations comprising the committee give reports at each meeting on the efforts they are taking to mitigate the effects of the drought on Missouri residents. Before I go further, let me mention that these responses are based on the Drought Monitor. For example, when an area goes from one drought stage to a higher level, a practice (such as haying CRP ground for livestock) may begin to be allowed. This is where your input is requested. The Drought Monitor is put together each week by the National Drought Miti-

Dogs take over Mid-Buchanan jamboree, ready to open at North Platte on Friday The Gallatin Bulldogs dominated Friday night’s football jamboree at Mid-Buchanan High School, and that resonated well with GHS coaches. “I was pleased with the way our guys competed at the jamboree,” said Head Coach Patrick Treece. “Our physicality exceeded my expectations and I thought we did a great job of moving the chains,” he added. “We made it out without turning the ball over offensively and caused two turnovers defensively, both by interceptions.” Gallatin’s football coaching staff, comprising Treece, Ryan Beenken, Brett Adkison and Zach Morrison, enters the 2018 season with a huge helping of respect from opponents after guiding the Bulldogs to their second straight 6-4 finish. Friday night was a great start. The Bulldogs scored twice against Plattsburg and once
each against West Platte and Mid-Buchanan. Junior quarterback Drayton Harris tossed a TD pass to junior wide receiver Aidan Adkison. Junior halfback Haden Bradford scored twice on the ground. Freshman backup quarterback Brinley Vandiver also ran for a TD against Plattsburg’s jayvee after completing a long pass to junior Tristen Gibson. The Bulldog offensive line pushed opposing defenses off the ball, led by senior center Tom Crouse, guards Morgan McBroom and Jonathan Carder, tackles Thomas King and Adam Perry, and tight end Landon Corwin. Senior Graydee Rains has converted from the line to fullback. Junior Gaven Gray, junior Ross Critten and senior Ayden Wayne provide a speedy receiving corps. Defensively, the Bulldogs shut down Friday night’s opposition
well short of the goal line. Probable starters there are Crouse and Corwin at defensive end; King, Carder, McBroom and Perry in the mix at tackle; Rains, Bradford, Critten and sophomore Gage Wright at linebacker; Gray and Adkison at the corners and Wayne at free safety. All-conference and all-state kicker Adrian Hernandez returns for his senior season. The Bulldogs travel to Dearborn this Friday for their traditional season opener against North Platte, looking for their third straight win over the Panthers and fifth victory in their last six meetings with the KCI Conference opponent. “We have watched (Friday’s) film together as a team, corrected mistakes and celebrated great plays,” Coach Treece said. “We look forward to getting the opportunity to line up against North Platte this Friday!”
Gallatin’s 2018 football captains are, front row, Graydee Rains and Tom Crouse; back row, Aidan Adkison and Drayton Harris.

Unoccupied buggy damages patrol car; horse injured Andrew Yutzy, 18, Jamesport, was charged Aug. 14 with felony property damage and animal abuse and misdemeanor charges of resisting arrest and making a false report. According to the probable cause statement, Yutzy was operating a horse-drawn buggy on 330th Street, Jamesport, at approximately 11:30 p.m. Aug. 12, and was being followed by Daviess County Deputy Kyle Cornett. When Cornett attempted to stop the buggy, using his emergency lights, Yutzy and an unknown female jumped out of the moving buggy and fled. The unoccupied buggy struck the patrol vehicle, a 2015 Dodge charger, and came to an abrupt stop. Approximately $1,200 worth of damage was done to the car. There were also injuries to the horse. The next day at around 10:45 a.m., Yutzy came to the sheriff’s office to report his buggy and horse missing. Yutzy claimed that his horse and buggy had been untied from a hitch post behind the Jamesport Tavern and that he had spent the night at a friend’s house. Yutzy completed and signed a witness statement to the above story. Yutzy subsequently admitted that he was lying and that he was the one who had escaped from Deputy Cornett. Bond was set at $15,000.

before retiring. He was a member of the Lake Viking Church, Northwest Missouri Bear Hunters, and the NRA. On Oct. 7, 1972, Clyde married Wanda JoAnn Jodi Tilduh Baker in Kearney. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Howard Curtis; and sister, Rosalie Barnes. Survivors include his wife, Jodi, of the home; son, Clyde Trey Mullikin, Winston; two daughters, Heather Mullikin-Gould, Lawson, and Tracy (Doug) Mullikin-Dodd, Cameron; two brothers, Gary (Donna) Curtis and Darrell Mullikin; sister, Kate Parks; five grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.
Governor Mike Parson recently signed legislation to modify age requirements for marriage licenses in Missouri that will take effect on August 28. Senate Bill 655, which was passed by the Missouri Legislature and signed into law, prohibits marriage licenses from being issued if either party is under 16 years of age. Additionally, the legislation bars the marriage of individuals 21 or older to anyone under age 18. Parental consent will still be required for minors to marry someone under age 21. All marriage license applicants will be required to provide proof of age to the Recorder of Deeds through a certified copy of their birth certificate, passport, or
other government-issued identification. The recorder will document this proof of age. Recorders of Deeds are committed to preserving records, including marriage licenses, with the utmost care and consistency. The duty to fulfill all legal requirements for documents is paramount. As with any statutory change, the Daviess County Recorder’s Office will modify its policies in order to implement the marriage age law as soon as it takes effect. Questions about the upcoming changes to marriage license requirements can be directed to Jane McKinsey, Daviess County Recorder of Deeds, at 660-6633183.

Altamont United Methodist Opening hymn was “In the Garden.” Sunday School adult lesson was on “Love is a Decision.” God tells us to sincerely love people regardless of our personalities or situations. It’s hard work and doesn’t come naturally, Romans 12:9-16. We are proud of Jack Malo making the drum line for the Kansas City Chiefs half-time shows. Our closing song and prayer was “Love Lifted Me.” Our prayers are for Velma Talbot suffering from leg and feet problems. Hopefully our homemade ice cream social will be Sunday evening, Sept. 2. Friends in Christ Shonna Morrison welcomed the congregation, and Peggy Earnst led the opening prayer. Praise songs were “Standing on the Promises” and “Holy Spirit.” We began a new sermon series, “The Beginner’s Guide to Predicting Your Future,” by Andy Stanley of North Point Church in Atlanta, GA. The message, “Principle of the Path,” was based on Matthew 7:24-29. Small group time followed the message. Gallatin United Methodist Pastor Brad Dush opened the worship service with prayer as Jan Johnson played the prelude, and Karley Roe lit the altar candles. Pastor Brad’s children’s message was “Practice Your Bible” and his sermon “Inconceivable: Delight for Desires” was based on Psalms 37:4. Bud Neptune, Gideon’s International, made a presentation. Dine in/carry out baked chicken dinner will be next Sunday following worship. Call Nancy Tate for carry out orders. Please sign up to volunteer for Kids Quest starting

Missouri Tigers look to continue progress by Benjamin Herrold Editor’s note: Our link to Mizzou sports renews as sportswriter Ben Herrold offers a preseason look at the football Tigers. Ben grew up in Daviess County and graduated from Gilman City High School in 2005. He then attended and graduated from the University of Missouri School of Journalism in 2009. He now writes as the field editor for Missouri Farmer Today and is based in Columbia. He visits home frequently and owns a farm in Daviess County.
Last season was a wild one for the Missouri Tigers, including a five-game losing streak, a coordinator fired after just two games, and a classic head coach rant after a bad home loss, but also a six-game winning streak, an impressive in-season turnaround, and a quarterback setting the conference record for touchdown passes in a season. Of course, taken altogether, it was a somewhat straightforward season: Missouri went 7-0 against teams that finished with losing records, and 0-6 against teams that had winning records. So now, in year three under coach Barry Odom, what happens next? The outlook got rosier when that record-setting quarterback, Drew Lock, announced he was staying in Columbia for his senior season. Lock, a Kansas City native, threw for 3,964 yards, 44 touchdowns and 13 interceptions last year, and he’s a long-shot Heisman Trophy contender heading into the season. For this year, Lock probably needs to improve on last season’s 57% completion rate. Lock has plenty of weapons on offense. Receivers Emanuel Hall and Johnathan Johnson emerged as deep threats last season, and both are back. The Tigers do lose leading receiver J’Mon Moore. Tight end Albert Okwuegbunam, or just “Albert O” for those pressed for time, is another reliable option. Larry Rountree and Damarea
Crockett, if he can stay healthy, lead the running backs. Blocking for those backs and protecting Lock will be an offensive line that brings back all five starters from last season. Like the offense, Missouri’s defense got a lift when a key player, defensive tackle Terry Beckner Jr., decided to pass on the NFL Draft and play his senior season in Columbia. Beckner should anchor the line, and Missouri has a fairly experienced group of linebackers in Terez Hall, Cale Garrett and Brandon Lee. The pass defense is a big question mark, especially the safeties. Missouri also needs some pass rushers to emerge. Odom is a defensive minded coach, so he should be very involved in the search for solutions here. Missouri should have pretty good special teams with Tucker McCann finding his stride as the kicker. He went 4-for-4 on field goals beyond 40 yards last year. Senior Corey Fatoney has been booming punts for the Tigers since 2015. Missouri is a little hard to project after their tale of two seasons 2017 campaign. That offense has a lot of potential, but they need to show a little more against the better defenses. They also have a new offensive coordinator, Derek Dooley. The defense needs to improve on their 31.8 points per game allowed last season. Missouri opens the season with three non-conference games before hosting Georgia on Sept. 22 in what could be the biggest game in Columbia in four years. Georgia is the clear favorite in the Southeastern Conference’s East Division. If the Tigers could spring a September upset, the entire narrative of the season shifts. Missouri feels like a 7 or 8 win team, but it’s definitely possible to see scenarios where they play above or below that range.
