The Stover Rural Fire Protection District board, Monday, Nov. 14 in their monthly meeting, reviewed and approved the application for probationary firefighter Jason Weaver. Weaver has been actively involved in four training sessions and, according to his review, has “a good work ethic and a good knowledge of fire fighting tactics.” Now that he has been approved, he will be assigned to Station 1 and will be outfitted from gear already in inventory. Chief’s report Jim Witte reported the district responded to eight calls during October. This brought the total number of calls so far in 2016 to 95.

“It’s a huge increase. It says a lot about the students and staff,” said Morgan County RI District Superintendent Matt Unger, referring to the nearly 20-percent uptick in the district’s rating on the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education’s (DESE) Annual Performance Report. The district was at 71.80 in 2014 and has now earned a 90percent rating. The good news was reported to the Morgan County R-I School District Board of Education Wednesday, Nov. 16 during their regular monthly meeting at the school. “Our APR has gone up tremendously,” Unger said. “In a nutshell, it’s basically good teaching and learning. We’re on an upward trend. It took two years, but we’re proud of what we accomplished.” Unger credited the building principals, the staff’s focus on students, and positive attitudes across the board for the progress. Of 140 total possible points in five categories on the Annual Performance Report, R-I earned 126. In academic achievement, R-I earned 51 of 56 possible points (91.1 percent). In subgroup achievements, R-I received 14 of 14 (100 percent). In college and career readiness, R-I earned 23.5 of 30 (78.3 percent). For attendance, R-I rated 7.5 of 10 (75 percent).

Marriott receives Taylor and Presidential awards

Witte said the Knockdown boots provide better ankle support and toe protection; are lighter, more comfortable, and hazmat certified; and comply with National Fire Protection Association standards. Their insoles also pull out to be dried after filling with water. On the other hand, according to Witte, the rubber boots, at $123 per pair, are uncomfortable, provide little insulation during cold weather, cause blisters when worn a long time, and leak water. The total cost for 27 pairs of the boots would be $7,830. After applying proceeds from recent fundraisers, the cost from the district’s budget would be approximately $3,500. Treasurer Larry Witte moved to proceed with fitting and ordering the boots, on the assumption the bill would be due after tax revenue starts coming in. The next Stover fire board meeting is scheduled 7 p.m. Monday, Dec. 12 at the district office in Stover.

The battle with credit card debt can be a constant struggle against high interest rates and monthly payments that never seem to make a dent in what you owe. How is it possible to make monthly credit card payments and never get anywhere? This problem is caused by high interest rates that eats up most of your payments. Even though you make your minimum payment, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make much headway eliminating the debt. Luckily, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a way to find debt relief without incurring more debts. Using certified credit counseling like Consolidated Credit,

you can get professional advice to identify the right solution for your needs. A certified credit counselor can review your options to see which solution is best for you. You can qualify for lower interest rates or even eliminate them, while consolidating your credit card debt into one easy payment to get you out of debt faster. Every financial institution differs, but most people see a reduction of total payments by up to 30-50% as they pay off debt faster. Freedom from debt can become a reality!

NR.otes of Interest D. F by ish The obvious topic for a column the week of Thanksgiving is thankfulness. But the beginning of thankfulness is humility. It seems to me, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be sincerely grateful for your blessings unless you are realistically humble about what you deserve. It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just about knowing how you have been blessed; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also about not taking those blessings for granted. Then again, part of appreciating what you have is being content with that and no more. Before the invisible, hypothetical spirit called Stover gazes through the steam rising from each local Thanksgiving turkey (or whatever each separate household has for dinner Thursday, Nov. 24), it may be useful to consider these things. We could hope, or wish, or ask for more of Stover, or for Stover. We could expect more. We could even demand more. But viewed from the right angle, what we have is worthy of thanksgiving. Stover could wish for a more thriving business district. As any downtown visitor is aware, there are several unused or underused buildings, some in need of repair

or at least cosmetic touch-up. On the other hand, Stoverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s downtown area is anchored by several businesses that show signs of still going strong after many years. A year ago in August, for example, the Stover Milling Co. put in a new feed grinder. This past July, Fajen Lumber & Hardware expanded its lumber warehouse. These are moves by experienced businesspeople that hint at plans to keep growing for years to come. This past January, one of our two local banks closed its doors after 110 years of business. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still closed, community room and all. But we can be thankful that at the other end of town, Citizens-Farmers Bank thrives in a handsome, brand-new building. Some of the new businesses that have started since I came to Stover, a little more than two years ago, have already ended as well. For example, the revival of the Turtle Cove cafe didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t survive past its own grand opening. And the ambitious people who owned the Extra Point, Docâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Arcade, and ZoLao Printing suddenly pulled their investment out of Stover.

Still, these setb a c k s have not stopped other entrepreneurs from starting businesses that are still growing - like the Stover Country Market, Studio Margo, Veracruz Jr., Dale Hollow Winery, and others. There are several communities within a one-county radius of Morgan County that are pining for opportunities like these. Visit them for a reminder of how many reasons Stover has to be thankful. It takes some humility to admit there is still a long way for Stover to go, and serious issues for us to work out if we hope to create opportunity from certain planned attractions for out-oftown visitors (cough, Rock Island Trail, cough). But from that humble perspective, we can be truly thankful for the blessings that have positioned Stover where it is, that keep it in business, and that make it a place where people love to live.

November 20, 1936 Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be a Thanksgiving in Stover and vicinity to judge from the number of people who won turkeys at the shooting match here last Saturday. Ted Priesmeyer, promoter of the shoot, is putting up another 100 birds this Saturday. Shoot any way youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re an old turkey hunter, have them toss one into the air for you. November 22, 1946 With the installation last week of the marquee at the Osage Theatre, Stoverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new and popular movie house is about complete. The marquee is a frontal dress up the most movie houses and other theatres us for several purposes, one of which is to protect the box office and patrons from the weather while tickets are being purchased. The marquee also provides space for attractive display and illumination. November 22, 1956 In the school fire of 1951, all records were destroyed. An attempt has been made by the school authorities to compile a list of the high school graduates. Only the following years have been completed: 1939, 1941, 1949, and 1951. It is requested that any graduate who has a diploma for these missing years in the school records, contact the school and submit their diploma

so that it may be recorded. November 24, 1966 The increasing number of rabies cases in Missouri animals is causing concern according to Dr. T. M. Curtin, University of Missouri Extension Veterinarian. Through the third week in October 1966, there were 233 postive laboratory diagnoses for the year compared to 108 for the same date in 1965. Slightly more than half the positive laboratory diagnoses have been in wild animals, mainly skunk and fox. Most of the rest have been in dogs, cats, and cattle. November 24, 1976 Stoverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual Christmas parade held early in December has been cancelled because of lack of interest in floats, according to a spokesman for the Chamber of Commerce. There will be a special event on Saturday, Dec. 4 with Chamber of Commerce merchants giving out â&#x20AC;&#x153;play moneyâ&#x20AC;? equivalent to amount of purchases in those stores. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;play moneyâ&#x20AC;? will be used in a C.O.C. auction to take place Saturday, Dec. 11. November 19, 1986 Dancers gathered in a circle to watch Eric Wilbanks of Stover perform a break-dance routine at last Saturday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Thanksgiving benefit dance at the Morgan County Rescue Squad building

in Versailles. The dance was sponsored by the Morgan County Youth Foundation. Proceeds from the event will be used to purchase turkeys and other Thanksgiving Day trimmings for area needy families. November 20, 1996 Former Morgan County R-I High School Principal. Jim Bellis, was recently named Educator of the Year at the Missouri State Teachers Association (MSTA) meeting. Each year the Stover Community Teachers Association (CTA) selects a teacher from their ranks to represent them at the MSTA meeting. Bellis was nominated by 25 individual faculty members for the award; the total faculty consists of 45 educators. November 22, 2006 A group of citizens, calling themselves the Bulldog PAWS (Patrons Advocating Wisdom & Succcess), brought their concerns to the attention of the Morgan County R-I Board of Education at their meeting Monday, Nov. 20. Stacy Marriott said the group has no plans to sue the school as has been rumored, but wants to help the school, kids, and faculty. Marriott said concerns began when rumors circulated that cell phone blockers had been installed at the school.

Students enjoy newspapers

Dear Editor, We enjoy getting the newspapers every week. We use the ads for discussions about money and what we can buy with different amounts of money. We also read articles to find different key words to learn how to read for meaning. When we finish our work and have time to read, instead of getting a book which will take a while to read, we can use a newspaper and finish an article before it is time to go to another class. Of course, our favorite way to use the newspaper is to look at the pictures of our school and the students and read the articles that go along with it. We’ve found there are many things going on here at Morgan County R-I schools. Kelly Beale’s students Morgan Co. R-I High School

skills. The newspaper provides the classroom with the latest news and information and is also written in an “easy to read” manner. This allows even struggling readers an opportunity to find out current events and to plan for shopping and employment. For our teachers and students, the newspaper is a lot like a living textbook. We use the newspaper to enhance skills in reading, writing, listening, speaking, math, social studies, and science. The newspaper expands our curriculum with useful community information to use as a resource for learning activities. We use the newspaper daily in our life skills program, as well as other areas.

The students research jobs and determine what the job market looks like, review current events in the community, and also prepare for meal preparation based on upcoming and current sales. This resource increases the students’ independence when planning for their “Tuesday Teacher Treats” and also for Vocational Rehabilitation opportunities. We are thankful to have such a useful resource provided to our students and to have the ability to keep the students connected to the community and its many opportunities and activities.
