FORT SCOTT TRIBUNE ITEMS OF THE PAST 25 Years Ago - 2001 More than 150 children participated in the Halloween costume parade and judging Saturday. The event was sponsored by PRIDE and the Fort Scott Downtown Program. All participants received a sack of goodies. Many of the downtown businesses displaying the orange pumpkin posters handed out candy to the youngsters on the parade route. 50 Years Ago - 1976 Roger Kraft skidded eight yards around the left end for a fourth-quarter touchdown Friday night to life Fort Scott High School’s Tigers to a 60 Southeast Kansas League victory over the Chanute Blue Comets in a mud filled game at Frary Field. The win keeps the Tigers, 6-1 in SEK play and 7-1 overall, in strong contention for at least a share of the league championship. Chanute fell to 3-4 in league play and 3-5 overall.

Your Individual Horoscope What kind of day will tomorrow be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign. For Thursday, Nov. 5, 2026 Today we may find things to be much clearer as we step forward with a more profound idea of what we need and want from others. The cosmic weather encourages a greater intuition with the things around us today. It can be important to take a step back, but it’s just as important to trust in ourselves when things feel right, especially if we’ve weighed the pros and cons. Things might start to make more sense in our love lives, whether it’s knowing the right thing to say or being in touch with a loved one’s feelings. Our work is where clarity can cut through confusion and perhaps lead to better results. ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Being open-minded about others and their interests can introduce you to some cool people. It could also help you bond better with the people who are already in your life. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your worth isn’t determined by how much work you produce or the amount of money you make. It goes much deeper than this. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Expressing yourself creatively in a way that you’ve never done before is great for building confidence and embracing your individuality. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your intuition is spot-on. Trust yourself. Let your inner voice guide you. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) If you’re the one who usually plans the activities you do with friends, maybe it’s time to share the role instead of managing it all yourself. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Release the need to accomplish as much as you can in the shortest amount of time. Go with the flow instead. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Be brave enough to step outside your comfort zone. You might discover something amazing about yourself in the process. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Being honest about what you can and can’t control might help save you some unnecessary stress. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) It’s possible to show up for others or be a part of a group project without overcommitting your time. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Don’t let perfectionism keep you from fulfilling your goals. Allow yourself the freedom to try a different approach and make some mistakes along the way. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Instead of plowing ahead with a plan or goal, give yourself some room to breathe. This way, you can come back to it with a fresh perspective. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Challenging your negative thoughts can be deeply liberating. Start by asking yourself if they’re factual or true. FOR TODAY’S BIRTHDAY You don’t cave under pressure; you seem to thrive from it. You come back from a loss or failure stronger than you were before. You rarely do anything halfheartedly. When you believe in a mission or a cause, you go at full throttle; you’re like an unstoppable force. But trouble can arise when you push yourself toward burnout or attempt to force your way forward without reflection or pause. Paying closer attention to your intuition can help you avoid unnecessary frustration. This year, aim to strengthen your intuitive muscle.

If you have 10+ acres of timber, we may be able to help! Our local hardwoods are in demand for flooring, furniture, gunstocks, barrels and more! Our Logging crews are certified by Missouri Forest Products Assoc., the Missouri Department of Conservation, and used by Kansas DNR. Our sawmill has been in business since 1948, employing LOCAL people and putting dollars into the LOCAL economy, not shipping US logs and lumber to China. We are glad to provide references, and will come to your property to give you a clear idea of how much your timber could pay, either cash up front or in shares as the harvest progresses. We provide WRITTEN contracts to protect both parties.
