WHEN YOU’RE OVER 70 I was standing at the bar one night minding my own business. This FAT ugly chick came up behind me, grabbed my behind and said, “You’re kind’a cute. You gotta phone number?” I said, “Yeah, you gotta pen?” She said, “Yeah, I got a pen”. I said, “You better get back in it before the farmer misses you.” Cost me 6 stitches . . . but, when you’re over seventy . . . who cares? *** I was talking to a young woman in the bar last night. She said, “If you lost a few pounds, had a shave and got your hair cut, you’d look all right.” I said, “If I did that, I’d be talking to your friends over there instead of you.” Cost me a fat lip, but . . . When you’re over seventy . . . who cares? *** I went to the pub last night and saw a BIG woman dancing on a table. I said, “Good legs.” The girl giggled and said, “Do you really think so?” I said, “Definitely! Most tables would have collapsed by now.” Cost me 6 more stitches, but . . . When you’re over seventy . . .who cares? *** A guy named Bill finally decided to tie the knot with his long-time girlfriend. One evening, after the honeymoon, he was welding some stuff for fun. His new wife was standing there at the bench watching him. After a long period of silence she finally spoke, “Honey, I’ve just been thinking, now
that we are married maybe it’s time you quit spending all your time out here in the shop. You probably should just consider selling all your welders along with your gun collection and that stupid vintage HarleyDavidson.” Bill got a horrified look on his face. She said, “Darling . . . what’s wrong?” He replied, “Just for a minute you were starting to sound like my exwife.” “X-wife?” she screamed. “YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOU WERE MARRIED BEFORE!” Bill replied: “I wasn’t.” —CC— Area graduates will soon be making decisions about what they are going to do in the future. We agree with Professor Jeffrey J. Selings who writes that “College Isn’t Always the Answer.” During this particularly rancorous election season, at least one bipartisan consensus persists: moreAmericans, we are told, need to earn undergraduate degrees. The political debate tends to focus on the best way to graduate more people with less debt. But it makes little sense to send more students to college when nearly half
of new graduates are working jobs that don’t require a bachelor’s degree, according to a 2014 report from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. It would be better to reconsider the entire issue. There’s a disconnect between supply (what the education system produces) and demand (what employers seek). Rather than trying to shuffle young people off to college three months after they graduate from high school, policy makers should support alternative routes to the education and training required for high-quality jobs. Plenty of successful examples have sprung up around the country. Siemens and other manufacturers, for example, developed a high-school apprenticeship program in North Carolina when they couldn’t find enough workers with advanced skills. After completing a three-year apprenticeship, the students leave with an associate degree and a $55,000 starting salary. John Deere runs a similar program at Walla Walla Community College in Washington State. Students are trained to fix million-dollar farm equipment, which allows them to use their hands and advanced math and mechanical skills. High-school guidance counselors, who are evaluated on the proportion of students they send to four-year universities, may discourage such choices. It might also be helpful if more high-school graduates took a “gap year” before heading off to college. Too often they pick a field of study based on what’s familiar, with little exposure to many of the jobs that exist today. Having high-school graduates take time to explore careers before college ― through internships or national service ― gives them a sense of focus and purpose. It likely saves money in the long run too. While not a traditional gap year, a program in Baltimore called BridgeEdU bills itself as a reinvention of the freshman experience. It offers college credits, internships and coaching for under $8,000. The number of teenagers who have some sort of job while in school has dropped to 20% in 2013 continued page 12

Devotion of the Week The Clock is Ticking In athletic games that are played for a set number of minutes, like basketball and football, the closer the clock gets to the final seconds, the more intense the play becomes. In fact, coaches practice plays to use when time has almost expired. Immediacy increases intensity in athletics—and in spiritual warfare. The world may never have been in more dire straits than it is now. Revelation 12:12 tells us that the devil “knows that he has (but) a short time” left to disrupt God’s plans on earth. It should come as no surprise that the closer we get to the end of the age and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, the more Satan will increase his activity. Wars, discord, disease, strife, immorality, and more are evidence of Satan’s work. But what Jesus started when He came the first time—destroying the works of the devil— will be concluded when He comes again. The great hope of the Christian is that one day we, and the world, will be free from the attacks of God’s enemy. Satan knows the clock is ticking and that he will one day be removed forever (Revelation 20:10).

a year at his father’s feed store and trucking business. In January of 1956 David was drafted and served two years in the Army. A fter attending North Texas University and graduating with a degree in Banking and Finance in January of 1960, David began working for the National Bank Examiners. He worked with them until November 1963, changing positions to the First National Bank in Coalgate. Working for a small bank, David was able to gain experience in every facet of community banking. After 10-years he was promoted to President. On June 30, 1984 he accepted a position as President of Farmers State Bank and now holds the titles of Bank Director and Shareholder. One of David’s favorite memories is a heartwarming moment with a bank customer. Two of his coworkers washed a customer’s laundry because she couldn’t afford a washing machine. Barbara Sanders During the late 1950s, Ernest Hodges, who was president of Farmers State Bank at that time, started a program wherein he would select one junior class student from the local high school to work at the bank after school, on Saturdays, and during the summer. Barbara was privileged to be selected for this honor during her junior year, 1957. When she graduated from high school in 1958, she continued to work at the bank. In 1963, Eugene Sanders and Barbara were married, and Eugene accepted a teaching position at Allen High School. Barb continued to work at the local bank because she loved the bank work and being around people. She worked until April of 1966 when their son, Greg, was born (April 10, 1966). Since she could not stand the idea of Greg in a day care, she quit my job and became a stay-athome mom. Once he started school, Barbara returned to the bank and worked until May 1975 when their second child, Regina, was born. Once again, she stayed home with Regina until she started to school, which was in September 1980, And now, thirty-six (36) years later, she is still working at Farmers State. Barbara loves her job and enjoys both the people she work with and those she serve. The Sanders family is all members of the Free Will Baptist Church in Allen
in the church and Barbara serves as church pianist. Eugene retired after 40 years of teaching at the local high school and son Greg is now teaching in the school, teaching the same subjects his dad taught and in the same classroom. T here have been lots of changes since Barbara first began working in banking. They have gone

Threads of Life ••• The wonder of an Apple Seed •••
by Cleo LeVally
When I began to write my column, the title stemmed from what I have done and the experiences in my life that make up who I am. That is the thread of my life. Each day I have many thoughts and I wonder about them. Thankfully, we have many avenues in which to explore and find out facts about everything we want to know. Today I ate an apple and found a small shiny, reddish brown seed and began to wonder about creation and millions and millions of ideas that God put together in this world for us. The apple is only one of them. Have you ever thought
about the wonder of an apple seed? Have you ever cut an apple, cored it and taken out the seeds? How many did you find? Seven, eight or nine tiny seeds? Did you ever take the time to examine one of the seeds? Tear it apart? And did you ever wonder about that tiny white sprig of life lying within? H ow many apples do you see in that seed? If you really think about it, you can see apples growing around the world that COULD come from one seed. You know the story of Johnny Appleseed who went around the United States planting apple seed. Many of the apples in the
United States today came from the seed he planted. Can you look at an apple seed and visualize for what it was created to be and what it can become? A large red or yellow apple is very beautiful and delicious to eat. All that from one tiny seed.

To me the tiny apple seed represents faith in action. We can look at the apple seed and know that it will reproduce if it is placed in the proper soil and has access to water and the rays of the sun. Life is like that. We are formed perfect in the beginning. What we become depends on all of the circumstances that
surround our life as we grow. When you can think like this, you are moved from the limitations of what you see and are thrust into the inner eye of the Spirit which sees beyond the form of what you see, to the unformed reality of what can be. Great are the wonders of the world and its creations. Life is good.
M axine Cosper Bell passed away Saturday, June 11, 2016, after a long illness. Maxine is a 1952 graduate of Allen High School and 1956 graduate of East Central State University.

Maxine and Richard were married in September 1955. They made their home in Palos Verdes, California. Maxine is survived by her husband, Richard, three children, Patricia, Courtney and Cameron and their spouses, and seven grandchildren all of whom live in California.

One Pharmacist’s View The Butterfield Stage
I t all started with the movie “Stagecoach” we had seen at the Friday night movie in Centrahoma. We knew all about the Butterfield Stage. John Wayne was the driver. But the famous line only existed about 4 years. Later, books were written, movies made and stories were born. The bigger than life stage line ran from St. Louis to San Francisco from 1856 to 1861. A real person named Butterfield, established the line and won a $600,000 mail contract from the US Government. The road went the long way south and avoided the snows and hazards of the Denver route. The 2,795 mile route took 596 hours and ran 24/7. It was tough. Butterfield had posters in his Eastern stations stating what passengers could expect. Bad meals, scalp hunting Indians and armed robbers. They were expected to pack their own arms and snacks and most of them did. The coaches were a fairly large 2,500 pound affair well constructed and cost $1,300 each. Usually overloaded, the 9 passengers were packed in cheekto-cheek, knee-to-knee
Mark Legg Allen Church of Christ
As a child, did you ever do something that was wrong and hear your friend (or sibling) say, “I’m gonna tell on you?” Well, as we go through life, there is something that continually “tells on” us. While we may claim to be a faithful Christian, our works or actions may “tell on” us. The Apostle Paul wrote of some people who profess “to know God, but in works they deny Him.” Paul’s point is that some people claim to know God, but they were “disobedient, and disqualified for every good work.” (Titus 1:16) It seems to be very hard for us to practice what we preach! How many of us claim to be God’s children, yet we do not obey Him? How many of us are so busy doing all the things we desire that we do not take time to read God’s word to find out what He wants us to do? We claim to love God, but does the way we pur-

and every 15 miles were treated to a brief stop for fresh horses. Butterfield did provide (optional) 2 meals a day and drinking water. It was a trip to hell and back. J ohn Wayne’s movie, “Stagecoach” made in 1939 showed Geronimo being the stage’s greatest threat and viewers were treated to breathtaking views of Monument Valley. Problem was, Geronimo never bothered Mr. Butterfield and didn’t arrive on the scene for another 20 years. The stage never went close to Monument Valley. Nevertheless, my brother and I believed what we wanted to believe. One thing was for sure. The stage carried strongboxes full of gold and money. The stage passed (we were told) just north of Wolf Mountain, a beautiful mountain near my Grandpa Bullard’s farm. We heard the stories that were richly enhanced by my imaginative Uncle Ernest and Uncle Jack. The Stage, so the story went, stopped at a stage stop just over Wolf Mountain. There was said to
be a house, well and, of course, barns and stables for the animals. At different times the stage had been robbed and the robbers had had to bury the money and gold and someday somebody would find it and be rich. It was said (by my uncles, of course) that people could still find gold coins strung around over there. Even as a boy, Gerald loved and craved adventure. I just wanted to be rich. So, one morning we took off with food and water on our quest. Besides, we needed to see just what the world looked like North of Wolf Mountain. It was the tallest mountain in that area. But the walk to Wolf Mountain was much further than we thought. Instead of a mile it was three. Also, it was steeper than it looked with lots of loose rock and long before we hit the top we had run out of water and our meal (two biscuits with some ham between halves) was long gone. We had had to stop several times and rest. O nce we topped the great mountain we were afforded a great view to
the north. The area there is part of the Ouachita national reserve and as such there were no buildings or roads. Just beauty. We searched for the stage station and maybe we found it. There was a well and some remains of log buildings, but no money. No Gold. Not one stray coin. Our day was spent and, still poor, we decided to come back when we, uh, were bigger. And besides it was a wild area said to
be populated by Bear and Panthers. Naturally we never went back. I hope all of you have a good weekend and if you go looking for the gold, well you might want to take a cloth sack--something to carry it back in. And enjoy the view from Wolf Mountain. It’s great. Remember, no one has found the gold yet. D on’t forget to go to church this Sunday. You can find treasure there too. Wayne Bullard, DPh waynebullard@sbcglobal.net

Down Memory Lane - 1966 THE ALLEN ADVOCATE, JUNE 16, 2016
August 26, 1965 School To Start! Classes will get underway at 8:50 a.m. Monday, August 30, here in the Allen schools. Teachers have been enrolling students in various classes for the past several days and the stage is all set for Act I of the 1965-66 school year. The football team and the Mustang band have been practicing for several days. Seventeen teachers are in their places awaiting the sun-shining faces.
Mustangs To Play Red Devils The young, but eager Mustangs will play the Coalgate Wildcats tonight (Thursday) in their first scrimmage test and next Friday they will travel to Prague for a scrimmage with another Class B outfit. The Prague Red Devils, formerly a member of the East Central Conference, were elevated to class B competition last year. Coalgate is also a Class B club, thereby Allen’s young Mustangs should benefit from this stiff season opener. Assistant football coach Eugene Sanders joined the squad Monday. Coach Isaacs stated that workouts have been progressing nicely. L ooking good in the backfield are Marion Borders, Phil Burk, Harold Stick, Mike Ross, Ronnie Janda, Bobby Jensen, Tommy Thompson and Tommy Sanders. Up front on the line is Terry Shires at center; Charlie Darras and Roger Hinchey at the guard positions; Tommy Kimbrell and Lealon Francis at tackles; Tommy Peay, and Dink and Gary Wofford at the ends. Boys showing promise on defense are Wayne Stewart, Harold Rinehart, Harold Maloy and Martin Sticks. Other boys who are still fighting for offensive and defensive spots include Dwayne Nickerson, Ted Corbitt, Billy Guy, Kerry and Jay Caldwell, Donnie Cannada, John Corbitt, Bobby Boyd and Tony Crumb. Three Mustangs are out with injuries. Tharry Beavers may be out for some time with a torn cartilage in his right knee. Glenn Hunnicutt and Dale Pegg are both out with pulled shoulder muscles. Beavers, a 222-pound tackle, was slated for heavy duty in the Mustang line and will be sorely missed if he’s unable to return to the lineup. “The squad is still working out sore muscles and

at times may seen to be dragging alone, but the right attitude is still in camp and these boys are looking forward to the opening of the season,” said Coach Isaacs. October 7, 1965 Band Wins Two Trophies T he Allen Mustang Band under the direction of David Harriman, took part in the Progressive Jubilee band festivities at Konawa Saturday and came home with first place trophies in both parade marching and field marching. The trophies can be seen in the Bullard Drug Store window. A llen band has 42 members this year and a new drum major, Lynnette Mullins. They will be marching in the Ada homecoming parade October 16.
night as Bob Somerhalder will take his teams to Weleetka. Last Friday night the Allen girls defeated Moss 46-31. Rita Hughes it 19 points, Sharon Matthews had 14 and Janice Jones 11. The guard end of Pam Cozad, Janice Stinson and Elissa Hughes held their opponents to 12 points during the first half of play. Tuesday night at Maud it was pretty much the same story, as the Allen guards mentioned above held Maud to 12 points the first half. Final score was Allen 64, Maud 46. Rita Hughes cashed in 28 points, Sharon Matthews hit 14, Janice Jones had 11, Noweta Case added 6 and Paula Hogue had 5. Others seeing action were Suzie Walton, Linda Robinson and Jennye Triplett.
January 27, 1966 Alfred Darras Retained As Superintendent Alfred Darras, Superintendent of the Allen Public Schools, has been rehired for the 1966-67 school term. The school board renewed his contract at a recent board meeting. Darras came to Allen in 1957 as high school principal. He is now in his third year as superintendent, having replaced C.G. Weaver in that capacity in 1962 when Weaver accepted a position with the State Board of Education. Since taking over the superintendent’s reins, Darras has been very instrumental in improving the school and buildings. Just recently completed was a new front including concession stand and rest room son the gymnasium and new office space. Darras stated he hopes for more needed improvements in the near future. The school board will ask voters to approve a $60,000.00 bond issue in March for a new lunchroom with complete equipment. He stated that the lunchroom is the first in a series of much needed improvements. Darras said that the Board of Education January 13, 1966 hopes to keep taxes as Allen Girls Win Num- they are now and at the same time go ahead with ber 10 The Allen girls received the building and expana 15 th place rating this sion program. week in the Class “B” Mustang Band Has basketball ratings put out Six In All-District by the Daily Oklahoman.

If high anticipation and the hustle-bustle of students preparing floats are any indication, then this year’s Homecoming Parade should be one of the best. The Homecoming Queen and her attendants and the Mustangs will be featured. Both grade and high school classes, as well as some school organizations, are busy preparing floats. The band will march and the Roundup Club will join the festivities. Climaxing the day’s festivities will be the coronation of the Homecoming Queen, Miss Janice Stinson, at game half-time. Miss Stinson will be attended by Misses Louise Janda, Lynette Mullins and Latricia Wilson. Dink Wofford has the honor of crowning the queen during the coronation ceremony. Miss Louise Janda, senior, will be escorted by Marion Borders; Miss Latricia Wilson, freshman, is escorted by Tommy Kimbrell; Miss Lynette Mullins, sophomore, is escorted by Harold Stick. Jennifer Murray, niece of Miss Stinson, will be the flower girl. Dickey Pegg served as crown bearer.
Central Monday. David Harriman is director of the Mustang band. Approximately 25 bands were in the tryouts with 400 students taking part. Directors of competing bands selected the best performers by the “blind judging” system. The contestant plays his instrument behind a screen from the judges and is known only by a number. Students were placed and seated in one of two different bands. Allen students seated in the symphonic band were Eddie Huckeby, first chair French horn and Lynette Mullins, third chair bass clarinet. Placing in the concert band were Louis Jarrett, Billy Poplin, Kerry Caldwell and Phyllis Clarkson, first alternate.
February 17, 1966 District Tournament Is Next C oach Bob Somerhalders’ boys and girls’ basketball teams ended the regular season play Tuesday night at Moss with the girls having one of their vest seasons. The Allen girls defeated Moss 58-49; last Friday night the girls defeated Prague 70-50. Coach Somerhalder’s girls have amassed a total of 1171 points to their opponents’ 810 over the 22-game stretch this season. Their record is 20 wins, 2 losses. Their game average figures out 53-plus points to their opponent’s 36. Fine defensive efforts all season long by the three starting guards have been one of the stronger assets. Pam Cozad, Janice Stinson and Elissa Hughes have done outstanding jobs at the positions. This team is ably assisted by their bench and girls who have seen considerable action and helped attain this record are Jennye Triplett, Linda Robinson and Brenda Hughes. On the forward end Rita Hughes, Sharon Matthews and Janice Jones, the starter, are all carrying averages in the double figures. They have been given good support from Paula Hogue and Noweta Case. Rita Hughes, who sometimes plays as guard, has scored a total of 479 points for a 21-plus average. Sharon Matthews has amassed 345 points for a 15 point average and Janice Jones is in there close with 279 points and a 12 point average. Team members are Suzie Walton, Elissa Hughes, Paula Hogue,
Janice Jones, Jennye Sue Triplett, Sharon Matthews, Linda Robinson, Brenda Hughes, Rita Hughes, Noweta Case, Janice Stinson and Pam Cozad.

Additional Information for Lead If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. City of Francis is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

D&S would like to be considered for future assistance. Lorene Scott stated she tried to send a letter to her grandson who is in the Pontotoc County Justice Center, but the letter was returned. Sheriff John Christian stated the Justice Center staff member should have signed for said letter and delivered it to the inmate, however, the letter was returned by mistake. Christian also relayed that there are rules that have to be followed that require them to not disclose when an inmate is being transported for any reason. In addition, no outside items from friends or family may be admitted in the Justice Center.

The following guests attended: Melissa Locke, Tina Johnson, Cheryl McElhany, Michael Echelle, Mark Manwell, Carter Coggburn, and Ronnie Meeks. There was discussion regarding office space for the agencies OJA and DEQ at the Pontotoc County Health Department (PCHD) building. The Pontotoc County Health Department Director, Michael Echelle, along with employees from OJA and DEQ came before the Board of Commissioners to discuss the need for OJA and DEQ to move the offices of their agencies into the PCHD building if feasible.
