in the recreation committee next year. The special meeting was called to discuss the town’s recreation board as well as expansion plans for the city’s Enterprise Zone. The discussion of the recreation board stemmed from the Oct. 28 coun-
cil meeting, where there were questions about a changing of locks at the Sportsplex and the usage of the city parks for youth football practice. At the Oct. 28 meeting, Jason Bullard, a Vernon resident and youth football coach, asked why his Washington County youth
football squad was being denied use of the city park to practice in preparation for the upcoming Snapper Bowl, which will be held in Panama City Beach beginning on Nov. 27. He also asked why the city council had voted

Ethics Commission dismisses complaint on Bush Panel hears numerous other complaints during session From Staff Reports TALLAHASSEE — The Florida Commission on Ethics dismissed a complaint against Washington County
Commissioner Alan Bush due to a lack of legal sufficiency, according to an Oct. 30 news release. Meeting in Tallahassee on Oct. 25 in closed session, the Florida Commission on Ethics took action on 30 complaints, according to Chairman Morgan Bentley. The commission’s reviews for legal sufficiency are limited to questions of jurisdiction and determinations as to whether the contents of the complaint are adequate to allege a viola-
tion of the Code of Ethics, according to the release. As no factual investigation precedes the reviews, the commission’s conclusions do not reflect on the accuracy of the allegations made in these complaints, according to the release. In addition to dismissing the complaint against Bush, the commission dismissed the following complaints for lack of legal sufficiency: Steven Young, Board of Directors of Passport High School, Inc., d/b/
a NorthStar High School; Pam Bondi, Attorney General; James Manfre, Flagler County Sheriff; Sid Nowell, Attorney for the Flagler County Sheriff ’s Office; two complaints against Patricia Duffy, Charlotte County Commissioner; Inspector Lebo, employee in the office of the Inspector General in the Department of Corrections; Sergeant Barton, Department of Corrections employee; Linda Doggett, Lee County Clerk of Court; Sergeant Burn-

vernon from page A1 to change all the locks at the Sportsplex, which took the council members by surprise. Bullard and Scotty Corbin, both youth football coaches, were on hand Monday to further discuss the situation. Corbin also serves on the city recreation board. Mayor Cook provided the city with an inventory of equipment the city owns and a list of equipment purchased in the past year. Changing the Sportsplex keys was an action that was not approved by the council, said Council Chairwoman Tina Sloan. “That should have been voted on by the council,” she said. The council did vote to not allow practice for the Snapper Bowl at the fields because the city did not know what liability it could face. Bullard was not in attendance at that meeting to explain the situation, Councilman Tray Hawkins said.
class from page A1
“If you could have been here to explain, we could have worked it out,” Hawkins said. “Any time you have something like this, come to the council with it.” The formation of the recreation board was also a topic of discussion. “Last year we decided as a council we would all work together to keep the recreation department going without hiring a rec director,” Cook said. She volunteered to head the effort and the city advertised for volunteers to form a recreation board. Eventually the five-member board was formed. However, the board never adopted any bylaws and there is no ordinance for how the board is to operate or how members will be appointed. City Attorney Michelle Tagert said the city needs to have an ordinance setting the recreation board, along with bylaws that set the goals and
tasks of the board. Washington County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Ted Everett was also on hand to present the council with maps showing the current Enterprise Zone and discussed his plans to expand the zone. An Enterprise Zone is a state-created area for industrial or commercial development that offers incentives to businesses in order to create jobs. Those incentives include jobs creation tax credits, electrical energy tax credits, sales tax refunds for jobs creation and building materials, property tax credits for jobs creation and sales tax refunds for business equipment and machinery. Last year the state Legislature passed a new law allowing counties to expand their Enterprise Zones, and Washington County will be allowed to expand its areas by three miles, which Everett plans to divide evenly between Ebro
and Vernon. The Vernon City Council approved changing the Enterprise Zone during their Sept. 23 meeting, and Everett is working with engineer Garrett Martin of Atkins, an engineering firm located in Chipley, to create maps of the two Enterprise Zones. “I think we should expand the Enterprise Zone north of the new bridge, and take the new mile and three-quarters of zone down Moss Hill Road toward the high school as far as it will go,” Everett said. Everett said the Enterprise Zone legislation is set to expire in 2015, but the Legislature has extended the law setting the zones twice in the past. Everett said he expects the zones to be renewed in 2015. “If that happens, then we will be set until 2025,” Everett said. The council will meet in workshop again on Nov. 12 and further discuss the Enterprise Zone.
Saturday’s Wall Basket was woven from several shades of green and featured a carved Tennessee Oak handle. “It’s a great basket to catch keys, sunglasses, gloves and your daily mail. We prepare the kits, however, we always bring extra reed in a variety of colors and sizes and lots of decorative accents — we don’t want to squelch creativity,” Hynes said. “This is a wonderful way to spend a beautiful fall morning, and museum visitors were amazed to actually find ‘crafters’ on-site today,” Museum Director Dorothy Odom said. “Not only is this an opportunity to learn or improve a heritage handicraft skill but you get to take your own handmade basket home! We’ve had a great response and plan to offer more classes of this type in the future.” Be sure to check the museum’s website regularly at www.washingtoncountyhistoricalsociety.org for information on all activities.
ethics from page A1 tion to notarize a Department of Health complaint against a physician for the benefit of his friend who also is a physician. The commission found no probable cause to believe that Manatee County School Board member Robert C. Gause filed an incomplete Form 6 disclosure for the years 2009, 2010, and 2011. No probable cause was found to believe that Florida Notary Eveling Pineda misused her position to notarize a document for her mother. The commission found no probable cause to believe that Bill Hoskovec, Town Manager of Melbourne Beach, misused his position to obtain a free home inspection from a subordinate. No probable cause also was found to believe that he failed to report the inspection as a gift.
The commission considered a complaint filed against Kelly Young, former Principal of NorthStar High School and board member of the NorthStar High School. Probable cause was found regarding business arrangements with her agency and that she had a conflicting contractual relationship because of her service on the board and her contract with the board to act as Principal of the high school. However, the commission will take no further action on the two allegations unless Young requests a hearing. No probable cause was found to believe that she violated the voting conflict law by voting on matters that inured to the special private gain or loss of herself or her husband; that she misused her position for the benefit of herself or her husband; and that she
violated the nepotism law because of the contract between the Board and her husband’s company. No probable cause was found to believe that Reggie Lewis, President of the Board of Directors of Success Leadership, Vice President of the Board of Directors of Stellar Leadership Academy, and former President of the Board of Directors of Life Skills Center Opa-Locka, misused her position by failing to return funds to the MiamiDade School District after relinquishing a school charter. No probable cause also was found to believe that Lewis misused her position to interfere with a partnership dispute. Allegations that she voted on a matter which inured to the special private benefit of herself, an employer, or a business associate were dismissed with a finding of no prob-
able cause. In a related complaint filed against Dannie McMillon, President of the Board of Directors of Stellar Leadership Academy and former Vice President of the Board of Directors of Life Skills Center, the commission found no probable cause to believe that McMillon misused her position by failing to return funds to the Miami-Dade School District upon relinquishing the school charter. No probable cause was found to believe that Florida Notary Public Deborah A. Burton misused her position to improperly notarize a signature. The commission found probable cause to believe that Lori Gulden, Florida Notary Public, misused her position to notarize a forged signature for the benefit of a coworker. Susan Dieterle, Mel-
bourne Beach Planning and Zoning Board Member, was cleared of allegations that she participated in a matter that inured to her special private gain or loss and that she failed to follow the law when she abstained from a January 2013 vote. The commission dismissed the allegations with a finding of no probable cause. No probable cause was found to believe that Hillary Anderson, Destin Fire Control District Board Member, had a voting conflict when she voted on a measure that affected her husband. The commission voted to dismiss a complaint filed against former Candidate for House of Representatives Jeremy Lau because the public interest would not be served by further proceedings. The allegations were that Mr. Lau filed an inaccurate 2012 Form 6 disclosure form when he
qualified for office. The commission granted the withdrawal request of complainant Troy Bennett in a complaint that he filed against Joseph Wynkoop, Montverde Council President. The Florida Commission on Ethics is an independent nine-member commission formed in 1974 to review complaints filed under the statutory Code of Ethics and to answer questions from public officials about potential conflicts of interest through its issuance of advisory opinions. If the ethics commission believes a violation of the law may have occurred, it may decide to hold a public hearing. If it concludes a violation has been committed, it may recommend civil penalties that include removal from office or employment and fines up to $10,000 per violation.

Special to the News
Chipley JROTC Cadets recently volunteered with Hearts And Hammers for a Service Learning Project.
JROTC Service Learning Project Special to The News On Saturday, Oct. 26, the Chipley High School JROTC Program had the greatest opportunity of working with Hammer and Hearts to conduct our Service Learning Project to help a family in need. A Service Learning Project is an event in which the program gets the pleasure of performing services for the community, and it is also a chance for the cadets to gain experience and knowledge through hands-on activities. Over 20 cadets were more than willing to volunteer their time to help clear out damage in order for Hammer and Hearts to repair a family’s home. One of the cadets in the program, C/LTC Myiesha Boston, commented on the event by stating that, “One of the very reasons that I joined this program was because of all of the amazing activities that it was involved in. It was really enjoyable being able to be involved in such a giving act”. Please contact the CHS JROTC program if there is anything that they can do for you.

Our VIEW Education: Keep it simple If one could give Florida’s new commissioner of education, Pam Stewart, a piece of advice as she undertakes a litany of complex, high-profile policy and procedural changes that will affect every school, every teacher and maybe every student in the state, it is this: Keep it simple. Keep the focus on the students and their futures. The former Marion County teacher and principal recently outlined her immediate plans in trying to straighten out the Department of Education. By March, Florida has to have the last version of the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test ready to go. Then, 12 months later — in 2015 — the state is scheduled to make its first use of the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers tests. They are being developed by a consortium of 19 states, including Florida. However, Gov. Rick Scott has recently and curiously decided that Florida should develop its own tests, without “federal intrusion.” The PARCC tests have long been approved by Florida for the 2014-2015 school year, along with the national Common Core Standards. Common Core is another consortium — in this case of 45 states, including Florida. The state’s schoolgrading system is a mess so confusing even members of the State Board of Education — Stewart’s bosses — say they don’t understand it. Worse, school grades have plummeted so much recently that the board has approved raising grades because of political and
parental backlash. A long-awaited teacherevaluation system remains undeveloped, let alone implemented. Meanwhile, teacher pay is supposed to be determined in part by those evaluations. On top of those systemic undertakings, Florida schools are facing an infrastructure crisis because of a lack of capitalimprovement money, and, as Stewart pointed out, too many high school graduates are not “career or college ready.” So what’s Stewart’s plan? “It’s getting the human-capital piece right,” she said. In other words, we must ensure we have quality teachers and give them the tools and resources necessary to educate our children at a high level and then hold them accountable. “The single most significant factor in student performance during the school day is the teacher,” Stewart said. Those who know Stewart praise her cool, calm demeanor, her fearlessness in the face of a challenge and her willingness to reach out and seek input from stakeholders, from parents and principals to teachers and Tallahassee pols. Stewart is emphatic that her foremost job right now is “getting standards and assessments right.” From that, all else will follow — tests, evaluations, school grades and, hopefully, public satisfaction. Keep it simple, commissioner, and use your much-touted people skills to seek input, your hands-on classroom experience, and it will surely get better. It has to.

Prescott’s hides and furs once called U.S. 90 home This writing is a third in a series of three articles paying tribute to those families, who owned property in the past, which was incorporated into the parcel where the newt Dollar General Store building was recently completed. The prattler has featured those pioneers who either lived or had businesses on this PERRY’S property PRATTLE and did Perry Wells not have histories recorded in the 2006 “Heritage of Washington County” Book. The previous two articles were on Cora Lee Kent and Wilburn Gainey wife, Erma Lee Gainey and son Harold. Last week’s article spotlighted Hubert A. Prescott and wife, Lucille Watford Prescott. They sold the two western most lots, included in the Dollar General purchase, to FRM Feed and Seed Store owned by Max and Joyce Wells. They were later bought by Perry and Hester Wells. Hubert Prescott expanded his Hides and Furs Business to the above location as the operation continued to out grow the space at the original site on West U.S. 90, where the Prescott family also made their home. The original block building adjacent to that home still has these fading bold letters: “We buy HIDES — FURS — AND PECANS,” on the East and West side. Hubert A. Prescott was born Sept. 27, 1911 in DeFuniak Springs. Later his family moved to Noma where he became acquainted with E. W. Carswell and continued lifelong friends.. Hubert completed high school in Holmes County High in Bonifay after attending two years in Graceville. The hide and fur business was established in Chipley in the mid- 1930s. Hubert married Lucille Watford Prescott on Oct. 20, 1932. She was born on
Oct. 14, 1910 and died June 14, 1997. She lived her early life in Holmes County. Mr. Prescott died Jan. 25, 1925. Both are buried in Glenwood Cemetery. The Prescott’s reared five children at the West 90 address where his major source of livelihood was buying, processing and selling animal and alligator hides and furs. The children born into this family are Joan Prescott, who married Roy Chance and their two sons are Cy and Arnie. Addison Prescott married Ann Cope. Born to them were Leslie and Julie. Hubert Edward Peacock married Wava Young. They have a son, Zachary and a daughter, McCall. Betty Sue Prescott married Johnny Huckaby with no children born. She is deceased. Gus Peacock has four sons, Scott, Jonathan, Keith and Kent and Kyle (twins). He has one daughter, Melodie. The third child in the sequence of the Prescott children, a daughter, died at the age of six weeks. All of the Prescott offspring have remained in Washington County and have had productive and meaningful involvement in the community. Cliff Haddock, of the large Jack and Annie Belle Haddock family, told me recently about trapping and killing a variety of animals and bringing their hides to Mr. Prescott, thus providing some much needed “school” money. Cliff explained: “Judge, handme-down clothes and shoes was a way of life in our large family.” He continued: “My brother, Carlton, who was just older than me, did not grow off as fast as the other children. I recall that even though his shoes were too small for him, he refused to hand them down to me, because he did not want to wear his older brother, Elton’s shoes. So that left me barefooted.” Cliff further explained that Mr. Hubert Prescott also bought raccoon’s feet at 50 cents, a possum’s feet paid 25 cents and the “bill” from an alligator gar brought top money at 75
From the files of E. W. Carswell, Hubert Prescott, at work in his Hide and Fur Shop, is shown. cents. This was through a Federal Government “bounty,” which the Prescotts cooperated in. Cliff was fortunate to catch and kill a grown possum with two little ones in her pouch. This brought him 75 cents for the feet, to which his father added a $1.25 credit he had coming, thus allowing for the 14 year old Cliff to buy a brand new pair of sandals. “I saved them for school and church and continued to plow and do other chores barefoot,” explained Cliff. In addition to the honorable trade of dealing in hides and furs, Hubert Prescott was also keenly interested in civic projects and well as seeing that his young children were entertained with fishing, camping and hunting trips. Daughter Joan Prescott Chance, delved into the later in her book, “Through The Years,” released in 1986. She reports on her dad’s regular sporting expeditions where he included the children. Some of his regular adult participants in this outdoor entertainment were Dr. Howard Tiller, Sr., Chipley Dentist Howard Bowers, who operated the Dry Cleaning Service and his young son, Addison Prescott. Joan also reported on another episode of her dad’s life of entertaining the young folk with “Track Soup.” This turned out to be his ability to tell interesting and
exciting stories that kept the children spell bound for hours either while on the camping trips or after supper at home. Hubert Prescott served on the Chipley City Council from 1950-56. He received a four-year appointment the Development Authority by the Governor in 1965. Perhaps his most treasured civic and community accomplishment involvement came when years of long and hard work by a host of individuals and organization resulted in the Falling Waters State Park becoming a reality. His friend, E.W. Carswell, was also a prime mover in this project. From a 7.8 acres gift parcel donated to the project by the International Paper Company, this hard working group of elected officials, office holders in county, city and state government, along with a host of civic minded individuals, saw the small acreage parlayed into today’s 155 acres of a beautiful and welllandscaped state park being visited by thousands annually. The Prattler has enjoyed researching and preparing the immediate past three “prattle” columns regarding those, now deceased, who were instrumental in developing East Highway 90, the site of Chipley’s new Dollar General Store. Now we must move on to another topic. See you all next week.

so we had never been there until this past month when our granddaughter, Hilary Webb and Dusty Holley, held their wedding there. Since they were both state FFA officers, the beautiful setting of the center on Lake Pierce was a natural choice for their big date. The LTC contains a Lodge, an educational building with cafeteria, 5 villas with six-bedrooms and a large common kitchen and day room each, a two story 3-bedroom house and one dormitory villa. It is in an isolated location and hard to find for us northwest Florida folks, but thanks to GPS, many of the Wells clan made it to the festivities. My sister, Muriel Turner quipped after she and Roy found their way there,” There won’t be many folks at this affair because nobody will be able to find it.” Wrong. As you would expect, many of their friends and their parents have been associated with FFA so it was very well attended. Listening to the talk of some of the young adults at the dinner, I heard 2 lawyers from Washington and one accountant from Miami as well as several cattle ranchers who were former FFA members. We also met a former
congressman from North Carolina who served on the Agriculture Committee and a state senator from Florida’s 12th district. I was disappointed that Commissioner of Agriculture Putnam was unable to attend. In addition to the LTC, Florida FFA Foundation now has plans to build a $1.5 million dollar Florida FFA Headquarters building located on the Farm Bureau campus near the University of Florida in Gainesville. Farm Bureau realizes that there is no better investment of time or money than to invest in young people who are interested in agriculture. This will serve as headquarters for the leadership of this 17,000 youth organization that began in 1928, adopted the blue and gold official jacket in 1933, and admitted girls to the allmale membership in 1969. To learn more about how you can support this, the greatest youth organization on earth, you may visit www. floridaffafoundation.org or www.flaltc.org. Two area men serve on the Board of Directors of the Foundation, Bruce Christmas of Chipley and Bud Revere of Bonifay.

CHIPLEY — The Second Graders at Kate Smith Elementary School were out in the morning sunshine building terrariums on Monday, Oct. 28. Chipley Garden Club had arrived earlier in the day with a wagon loaded down with terrarium building supplies — recycled “terrariums” which once were 2-liter drink bottles, soil, gravel, charcoal, hundreds of plant clippings, dibbles, water spray bottles and even a few little plastic creepy crawlers. Club members were ready and waiting as the children began arriving at the terrarium building stations. By carefully following the instruction of club members, the children were able to assemble their own terrariums which they can enter in the 4-H Youth Fair in January 2014. Garden Club Youth Chairman/2nd VP Linda Pigott stated, “Our club looks forward to sharing our love of horticulture with the children. We explain how a terrarium works and the components needed to build one. The children enjoy taking care of their creations during the year and are excited about entering them in the youth fair in 2014.” The next monthly meeting of Chipley Garden Club will be held on Wednesday, Nov. 6 at 10:30 a.m. First VP Glenda Wilson and club member Debbie Mitchell will be presenting a program entitled, “The Many Uses of Herbs & Other Weeds.” You never know what

defense and a very high basketball IQ. They were a lot of fun to coach. The B Team finished the season 102. They started the season 1-2 but kept working hard and went on a nine game winning streak. Their attitudes, work ethic and willingness to learn overcome their lack of experience. The parents of these players, the teachers and the administrators were equally supportive. Reggie Hodge and Mike Moore volunteered many hours of their time in this effort as well. In the last five years the BMS Lady Devils, both A and B Teams, have won 125 of 141 ball games and the A Team has finished the season 16-0 three times. They would greatly appreciate your support at Holmes County High School this basketball season. Thanks for another great season.

4-H Shooting Sports Clubs are fired up The Holmes County 4-H Program through the University of Florida IFAS Extension has recently received a grant from the NRA for the acquisition of air rifle equipment for the Holmes County 4-H Air Rifle Club. The grant in the amount of $5,978.52 assisted in the attainment of competition style Daisy air rifles, knee rolls, targets, sight and hearing protection, and various rifle cleaning materials. Since the acceptance of this NRA grant and the receipt of air rifle equipment and supplies, Holmes County 4-H has been able to offer youth a new shooting sports discipline to learn within the last year. “The Holmes County 4-H Association is excited to see an increase in 4-H enrollment due to the development and sustainability of this shooting sports activity,” said Niki Crawson, Holmes County 4-H Agent. “By having the equipment provided by the NRA, 4-H is able to provide safe and fun
learning environments which allows a large number of youth to participate, increase their shooting skills and maintain their enthusiasm
for shooting sports.” Local businesses and community members have become active supporters of the Holmes County 4-H Shooting
Sports program, in part because of the ability to offer education in a variety of shooting disciplines such as air rifle and archery.

Do I Sunday morning service, a woman have to pray for everything? approached Frank with a simple On Friday, my wife and I made our request. way to our favorite restaurant and to “Oh, Brother Simmons,” she said our great delight, our favorite waitress in a dramatic fashion that always was on duty and we requested her irritated Frank, “would you pray that
my daughter gets married?” Without giving her request any thought, he replied in the negative. The thing I always liked about good ole Brother Simmons was that he was always Frank. “Why won’t you pray for my daughter,” demanded the woman. “Well,” Frank said, “tell me something. Does she have any special friend? Is she dating?” Frank later told me that many people want God to do everything for them. “There is plenty for us to do,” he said with a mischievous grin. Of course, Frank firmly believed in prayer but he also believed people have personal responsibility in their lives. So many blame God for the bad in their life. Then when they get in trouble, they want God to bail them out. One of Frank’s favorite sayings was, “Many folk sow their wild oats Saturday night and then Sunday morning pray for crop failure.” Some things should not be a matter of prayer but of simple obedience. Prayer is no substitute for action. In fact, in some cases it is not in order to pray. For example, it is wrong to pray about anything clearly forbidden in the Bible. I do not have to pray about hating somebody. It is always wrong to hate and no amount of prayer could ever change that fact. The apostle James set this forth rather clearly in his epistle. “Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much” (James 5:16 KJV). No prayer is worth praying if it is prayed outside of that righteous zone. Rev. James L.

Infection Preventionist: Flu season is upon us MARIANNA — Flu season is already hitting Jackson County, according to Charlotte McAlpin, Infection Preventionist at Jackson Hospital. “We have seen a marked increase in positive flu cultures through the Emergency Room,” McAlpin stated. Robin Albritton, Family Practitioner at Jackson Hospital states, “The flu kills more people in the U.S. each year than any other infectious disease which is a sad statement because we do have a vac-
cine for it. Most everyone over the age of 6 months should have the flu vaccine unless you have a significant allergy to eggs. Contrary to popular belief, you cannot get the flu from the flu vaccine. Some people may feel a little achy and have a sore arm after getting the shot but these symptoms should not be confused with the flu.” McAlpin stated, “Due to this highly contagious virus, Jackson Hospital’s flu prevention begins with encouraging all of our employees and volunteers to receive the flu vaccine. The higher the per-
centage of employees who receive the vaccine raises the level of protection for patients and other employees.” According to the Center for Disease Control, “Influenza infections are associated with substantial medical costs, hospitalizations, lost productivity, and thousands of deaths every year in the United States. Annual influenza vaccination is the best way to reduce the risk for complications from influenza infections.” Annual vaccination is important because influenza is unpredictable, flu viruses are
