NECAC To Host Public Meeting The not-for-profit North East Community Action Corporation (NECAC) will host a public hearing on its annual plan that is to be submitted to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for funding the Section 8 Housing Rent-Assistance Program for residents of 11 counties.

The affected counties are Lewis, Lincoln, Macon, Marion, Monroe, Montgomery, Pike, Ralls, Randolph, Shelby and Warren, and are known as the LCPHA 11-County Joint Housing Commission. The 11-member commission is made up of one county commissioner from each county, and all serve on the NECAC Board of Directors.

The hearing is 10 a.m., Tuesday, May 20, at the agency’s Community Services Department Building next to the NECAC Pike County Service Center at 805 Business Highway 61 North in Bowling Green.

The annual plan and public hearing are part of the contract requirements NECAC has with HUD and the commission, and describe NECAC’s administration of the Section 8 program. NECAC has been contracting with HUD and the commission for more than 35 years to operate the program.

NECAC also has a separate contract with HUD and the St. Charles County government to administer the Section 8 program in that county.

The HUD Section 8 rent-assistance program allows NECAC to make full or partial monthly rent-subsidy payments di-

Thank you to everyone that supported me and vote for me in the Lewis County General Municipal Election on April 8.

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to contact me at 573-248-4789

rectly to participating private landlords on behalf of the income-qualifying families and individuals.

The tenant then pays the remaining balance of the rent directly to the landlord on a monthly basis.

Only houses, apartments and mobile homes that meet standards for safety, cleanliness and affordability set by HUD Housing Quality Standards (HQS) and local city and county zoning ordinances may be approved for the program.

After signing up for the program, applicants who meet the federal income and other guidelines will be put on a waiting list.

When their names reach the top of the list, applicants will receive permission to search for an apartment, house or mobile home. The applicant will then have 60 days to find a rental unit, which is then inspected by NECAC and must pass HUD and local standards. Applicants may use their current places of residence if their landlords agree to participate in the program and the rental unit passes inspection.

NECAC provides the qualified applicants with a list of all local landlords who participate in the program. The qualified applicants are responsible for making landlord contact, applying for and signing an annual lease.

Participating landlords receive the guaranteed monthly rent portion payment from NECAC and keep and maintain control of their properties. They may continue to advertise their rental units on the open market for the general public until a lease is signed. The landlord is re-

sponsible for checking references and doing background checks and may reject an applicant based upon their findings. The landlords are responsible for providing an annual lease and may also, with proper legal notice, evict tenants who do not follow the terms of the lease.

Qualifying Section 8 tenants pay approximately 30 percent of their income towards rent and utilities directly to the landlord on a monthly basis.

The actual amount of the rent payment subsidy depends upon the individual or family income, size of family and the unit selected.

Preference will be given to families who live or work in the 11 counties.

Proof of residency must be provided at the time of application. Acceptable forms of proof are Social Security/SSI award letter, check stubs, current bank statement or utility bills.

The agency administers more than 2,600 Section 8 vouchers in its service area. NECAC is a 12-county area not-forprofit social service, community health and public housing Community Action Agency headquartered in Bowling Green, with client service centers operated in each county.

NECAC is one of 19 nonprofit Community Action Agencies in Missouri and part of a national network of more than 1,000 independent agencies.

For more information, call the appropriate NECAC County Service Center or the NECAC Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program in Bowling Green toll free at 1-866-552-5560.

With Great Appreciation I would like to thank my family and friends for a very memorable day; one I will never forget. Thanks for all the cards and gifts. A special thanks to my family for their efforts to make my 90th birthday such a success.

Thanks again Wayne Maples

Announces Sign-Up Date for Disaster Assistance Programs U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Service Agency (FSA) Administrator Juan M. Garcia announced that farmers and ranchers can sign-up for disaster assistance programs, reestablished and strengthened by the 2014 Farm Bill, beginning April 15, 2014.

“President Obama and Secretary Vilsack made it a priority to begin enrollment for these programs,” said Garcia. “For farmers and ranchers who have been awaiting disaster assistance, help is on the way.”

The Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP) and the Livestock Forage Disaster Program (LFP) will provide payments to eligible producers for livestock deaths and grazing losses

that have occurred since the expiration of the livestock disaster assistance programs in 2011, and including calendar years 2012, 2013, and 2014.

Enrollment also begins on April 15 for producers with losses covered by the Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honeybees, and Farm-Raised Fish Program (ELAP) and the Tree Assistance Program (TAP) in 2011, when the programs expired, through 2014.

“Missouri’s producers have encountered several extreme weather conditions over the past few years, from a historic drought, to flooding, to extreme cold and snow,” said Mark Cadle, state executive director for Missouri FSA. “These programs will

help our producers recover from these disasters and help sustain Missouri’s livestock industry.”

LIP provides compensation to eligible livestock producers who have suffered livestock death losses in excess of normal mortality due to adverse weather and attacks by animals reintroduced into the wild by the federal government or protected by federal law. LFP provides compensation to eligible livestock producers who have suffered grazing losses due to drought or fire.

ELAP provides emergency assistance to eligible producers of livestock, honeybees and farm-raised fish who have losses due to disease, adverse weather, or other conditions, such as wildfires. TAP pro-

vides financial assistance to qualifying orchardists and nursery tree growers to replant or rehabilitate eligible trees, bushes and vines damaged by natural disasters.

“To expedite applications, all producers who experienced losses are encouraged to bring records documenting those losses to their local FSA county office,” said Cadle.

Producers also are encouraged to contact their county office ahead of time to schedule an appointment.

For more information, producers are encouraged to review the 2014 Farm Bill Fact Sheet, check out the LIP, LFP, ELAP and TAP fact sheets online at www.fsa.usda.gov or visit any USDA Service Center.

Free Skin Cancer Screenings Offered Free skin cancer screenings will be offered to the public on Thursday, May 1 from 1 to 5 p.m. at the Blessing Health Center.

The screenings will be conducted in the Dermatology Suite 221 at 927 Broadway.

Appointments are required by calling toll free, 877-411-2468, or by going online at blessinghealthsystem.org/signup.

The free skin cancer screenings consist of an examination by dermatologist, Dr. Louis Quintero.

The screening is spon-

sored by the Blessing Cancer Center with Blessing Physician Services.

No biopsy or other invasive procedures will be done during the screening. Minors cannot be screened without a parent or guardian present. Materials will also be available about prevention and early detection.

Most skin cancers are caused by too much exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays, but some may come from artificial sources such as tanning beds.

It is impossible to avoid

sunlight, but there are precautions that can limit one’s exposure to UV rays.

Limit direct sun exposure during the middle of the day when the UV rays are most intense- usually between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. When in the sun, wear clothing and a hat to protect as much skin as possible. Use a sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of 15 or higher; apply 20 minutes before sun exposure and reapply every two hours.

Be sure that the sunscreen protects against both ul-

traviolet A and ultraviolet B rays. Wear wrap-around sunglasses that block UV rays. Research has shown that long hours in the sun without eye protection increases the chances of developing eye disease. Avoid tanning beds and sunlamps.

EDITORIAL NEWS

Letter to Editor The word “sustainability� can be linked to a lot of our local activities these days—whether it’s reusing or recycling products that otherwise might be tossed out, shopping locally at our farmers markets and area small businesses right here in Lewis County, or making a commitment to buy American-made products. Needless to say, there are a lot of ways to go local and build a more sustainable world.

While all of this is great, have you thought about what these activities mean for our local economy, right here in Lewis County? Have you also thought about how your banking activities might also help our local economy? If not, I’m hoping to add yet another buzzword to your lexicon—it’s called economic sustainability.

You might be asking exactly what this means.

As President of Bank of Monticello, this is a cause I’m dedicated to each and every day. By employing local residents and lending to local small businesses, farmers, ranchers and residents, the Bank of Monticello and other community banks are building a more economically sustainable community right here in Lewis County—and community banks nationwide are doing the same.

It’s all part of a symbiotic relationship that community banks have with their communities—they take in local deposits and put them to productive use by lending that money back into the local economic ecosystem to local small businesses, local

farmers, and to local residents just like you.

That’s why this April, which is ICBA Community Banking Month, I encourage all local residents and small business owners to consider what it means to go local from an economic point of view and how to support economic sustainability by banking with a community bank.

Banking locally makes an impact both at the micro and macro levels. Take for instance the fact that there are almost 7,000 community banks with more than 50,000 locations throughout the United States. Community banks, which are locally operated—and many of them locally owned—constitute 96.8 percent of all banks with assets that may range from less than $10 million to $10 billion or more. Community banks with less than $10 billion in assets provide nearly 60 percent of all small business loans under $1 million and more than 75 percent of all commercial bank agricultural loans.

That’s no small potatoes when it comes to lending.

Community banks are only successful if our customers and communities are too. That’s why the community bank and its relationship business model have thrived for over 100 years. We know what it takes to create successful local economies— join us in helping to build a more sustainable, vibrant economy here at home.

Virgil Welker President, Bank of Monticello

LEWIS COUNTY HISTORY

BACKWARD GLANCES From the pages of early Lewis County newspapers 25 Years Ago March 16, 1989 Kindergarten classes at Ewing school made their own tinker-toys with toothpicks and miniature marshmallows. They have been studying about the letter T. Children are also working very diligently learning to tie shoes and remembering telephone numbers and addresses.

It’s not very often that twins have their own birthdate, but two Ewing girls do have. Stephanie Marie Schultz was born at Blessing Hospital March 7 at 11:59 p.m. and sister Jodie Lynn Schultz was born the next day, March 8, albeit only two minutes later.

Spec. Gay J. Stalder has completed a U.S. Army primary leadership course.

Students received training in supervisory skills, leadership principles and small unit training techniques essential to a first-line supervisory in a technical or administrative environment. He is an air defense gunnery crew member with the 59th Air Defense Artillery in West Germany. Stalder is the son of Charilyn A. and Jack J. Stalder of Ewing. The specialist is a 1978 graduate of Highland High School, Ewing.

45 Years Ago The Press-News Journal March 20, 1969 The Canton High School Madrigal Singers made a trip to Moberly March 11 for the annual district Madrigal Festival. Those attending were Bill Berry, director, Janice Dade, Judi Rickards, Irene Dudgeon, Becky Blickhan, Dale Stephenson, Kent Miller, Lanse Tomlinson and Joe Wheeler.

Oscar Becker, 85, LaGrange died March 13.

Latest figures in the Factory Fund campaign reveal a total of $34,266 has been given or pledged

to the $50,000 sum needed to bring the Crown Shoe Company to Canton and Lewis County.

Approved by the Canton R-V Board of Education, ordered and being made, are 90 Canton Marching Tiger band uniforms.

75 Years Ago The Lewis County Journal March 23, 1939 Funeral services for Abram R. Detwiler were held Sunday in Kelly Funeral Home. A large crowd paid a last tribute to this prominent and widely known citizen. He was borning in Canton July 5, 1882. He was the son of O.W. And Amelia Detwiler. The aged mother surviving him is a pioneer resident of Canton. His father established the Detwiler Studio and it finally fell to Abe’s lot to carry on the family tradition., the studio established 79 years ago. He was an artist in photography and won widespread recognition for his artistic finish of photographs.

The W.Q. Ayers Oil Company expects its big new oil tank on the Mississippi River this week. A storage warehouse will be added later and the plot beautified. L.V. Barnett is remodeling the Elias Lillard property and Mr. and Mrs. Ayers will move here from Kahoka to occupy it.

Seventy acres of tomatoes had been booked up to Tuesday, and enough acreage to supply the Canton Canning Factory seems practically assured.

It will be necessary to have 100 acres and it is hoped to secure 150 acres of tomatoes. Forty to fifty employees would be needed if plans mature.

Mr. and Mrs. Capps and Mrs. Julian Thompson were called to Licking Mo., by the death of their father, Dr. J. C. Shanks. HE

was 74 years old and was born and reared in Lewis County.

85 Years Ago The Lewis County Journal March 21, 1929 With the exception of one time, 193, the Mississippi is higher that it has been for 78 years and many of the people in the bottoms have moved in fear that the levees will not be able to hold the water back. In Canton the water is up to Fourth Street and is over the road so that rravel on Highway 61 toward Quincy is impassable. The railroad there is under water and trains have been annulled for the last two or three days. At LaGrange the situation is very grave and some of the streets along the highway are under water.

Highway No. 6 will be finished to Lewistown in 1929. This is the promise given by the Highway Commission in letters received in his community.

The old Bank of Canton building, now the Public Library, was damaged to the extent of $400 by fire Thursday night about 7:30/ Deaths: Mrs. Roscoe Legg, 36, of near Williamstown, died at the Community Hospital in Canton last Friday. Lee Corbin 41, departed this life at his home near Newark March 16.

95 Years Ago The Lewis County Journal March 22, 1919 It grieves us to speak of the death of Isaac W. Day, who answered to the call on March 13, aged 38 years, after an illness of three weeks.

John O’Day had he misfortune to lose his hay barn by fire last week and with very little insurance.

Airline passenger service between St. Louis and Chicago will be instituted

by the International Aerial Navigation Co. They contemplate operating “Kenden monoplanes� between St. Louis and Chicago, carrying 75 passengers.

The first flight be July 1 and the far will be $35.

The rate already in operation between London and Paris, a distance of about 200 miles, is $78.50. They estimate the running time to Chicago would be 10 hours.

Mrs. Henry Ritter, the aged mother of Mrs. Wildman, died at the Wildman home north of town Wednesday.

125 Years Ago The Lewis County Journal March 22, 1889 H.J. McRoberts has moved into the Caldwell house in the north part of town and is now a citizen of Monticello.

COMMUNITY NEWS LaGrange News

By Myrna Hoteling

Take a deep breath, April 16 is National Stress Awareness Day. The 22nd of April is Earth Day. If we teach kids to appreciate our planet and how to keep it green and clean the future will be brighter.

Garden Club news report that Hummingbirds have returned to Southern IL so it is time to put out feeders. Save the Monarch Butterfly by planting native nectar rich perennials.

A favorite is milkweed.

The spring Community Prayer Retreat will be Wednesday April 23, 2014 at Notre Dame Catholic Church. A carry in lunch will be at 12:30 pm followed by the program at 1:30 pm. The St. Peter’s Lutheran Church women have chosen “Praise the Lord.” Psalm 117 as the program theme for the day.

Little 6 year old Natalie Allensworth is a patient in the ICU of Childrens Hospital in St. Louis. She is the daughter of Brooke and Marty Allensworth.

She suffered a broken arm, broken leg, perforated liver and collapsed lung in the bus accident on

April 1. I had a 12 year old grandson a patient there.

I agree with Alan Musser, grandfather of Natalie the care was great but seeing a small body with tubes all over, bandages, machines that beeped and whooshes was still a scary sight. A classmate Gavin Meyers was in the room next door so they and the families could cheer each other.

I hear Natalie returned home over the week end.

Get well all of you.

Phyllis Heindselman attended a 90th birthday celebration in Lewistown for Jerry Fast. On Tuesday she got together with Elaine Jamison, Trudie Stahl and Georgia Richter for lunch in Canton. Wednesday it was lunch with the symphony chorus women in Quincy and Friday she attended the spring concert of her granddaughters, Emma and Sheridan staying overnight.

After visiting his father, Don Neil, in Canton, Brad, and Tammy Neil stopped in La Grange to visit her folks, Bert and Pat Cottrell. Pat had spent Monday to Thursday as a patient in Blessing Hospital.

Dave and Dianna St-

ambaugh called on Doug Mallett who had stents inserted for a heart attack.

They also visited Bessie Stambaugh. Bessie was a guest of her daughter, Virginia and Mike Carpenter for supper on Sunday evening.

A number of Girl Scouts were collecting personal care items which will help local families.

Mary Vaughn joined Gayle and Lexie as they colored three dozen eggs.

Now you can make tie dye colored eggs even camouflage ones.

Buckley McCutchan was home for four days to file his taxes and visit family. Sunday he was joined

by Bettina, Eli and Nick Wainwright, Todd, Lynn, Dakota and Ben White, Hunter, Chevelle and Tucker McCutchan, Tracy Hoteling and Lexie White, Tina McCutchan and Tim and Myrna Hoteling. Following lunch and between rain showers the children enjoyed an egg hunt in the yard and a treasure hunt inside.

Nick Wainwright had a trip to the ER for a cut to his head. He had dog treats in his shirt pocket and his dog did not want to wait for Nick to pass them out and they got tangled up, Nick fell on a brick and cut his head. Only two stitches but quite a bit of blood.

Girl Scouts Collection Girl Scout Troop 9072 collected the April showers bags from the LaGrange area on April 12.The scouts collected 300 items that go to the Canton Christian church pantry. Every spring the girl scouts collect personal care items to take to a local pantry through our April Showers program.

ROCKNE DECOSTER

The Grinnell College men’s golf team put together another successful round on the final day of the Prairie Fire Classic, firing a score of 319 at Gibson Woods Golf Course.

Rockne DeCoster, class of ‘15 led the way for Grinnell with a 6-over-par 77, giving him two rounds in the 70s for the tourney as he had an overall score of

156. That tied him for 15th place.

“Things just continue to improve with this golf team,” said Grinnell coach Brian Jaworski . “Every day we were down in Arizona, things got a little better and we were fired up about how we competed against a very strong Pima squad. Now, this weekend is here and the one

player (Rockne) on our team who we know was disappointed with how he played against Pima … he comes right back and fires two scores in the 70’s in our next event, just missing out on his first top 10 finish. That is impressive and done with a team-first mentality.
