MWCD fighting shoreline erosion at Charles Mill, Atwood, Seneca Lakes BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com
NEW PHILADELPHIA—The Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District Master Plan’s Phase II has been in full swing ever since completing Phase I — one of the group’s biggest projects. And Chief Engineer Boris Slogar reminded the board of the roughly $65 million involved in the second phase. He touched on the Tappan Lake Marina that continues to wind down, stating a “substantial” completion date later in September. The original deadline was intended for late June but was pushed back by two months, well into August. But that deadline was also not met, and now things are looking to be ready sometime this month. “And so our list is growing [and] things are moving smoothly,” Slogar said about the projects moving forward. Slogar also touched on the District’s dredging projects, stating it was close to wrapping up. He said they were working on obtaining more capacity under the current contract because some work is near private property. Additionally, the Conservancy District is moving forward with shoreline stabilization projects at Charles Mill, Atwood, and Seneca Lakes. Slogar said
the two projects at Charles Mill feature sizable stretches of shore — one being 1,800 feet and another for 550 feet. The two projects range from 2 to 10 feet in vertical length, with native grass plantings and fiber core logs being used in restoring shores and preventing erosion. Slogar said they had originally started with around 600 projects and have now eliminated around 115. “We targeted the worst of the worst coming out of the gate, but it just continues as you can imagine with 350 miles of shoreline, there’s always something that needs attention,” Slogar explained. “It’s been a very successful program.” When asked how the next project is determined, Slogar said safety issues dictate that order as they look at what might be threatened, such as a utility or a structure. But erosion, especially near a roadway, was their highest priority concern, adding that the shoreline was being lost due to sediment issues. “A factor that also impacts how we prioritize is, ‘Can we get to the project’? We have some locations that are remote, so it could cost us almost as much to build a road to get the project as it can to fix the project,” he told the board. “So, you know, that’s something that we take into consideration.”
Scio facing RV street parking conundrum BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com SCIO—At last Wednesday’s meeting, council member Andrew Turner explained that complaints had been received because of people staying in RVs during the recent street festival. It was also revealed that some people living in the RVs during the weeklong event were in charge of entertainment. However, an ordinance forbids individuals from doing this within village limits. One council suggestion was to wait and deal with the issue next year, but Turner hoped that ongoing talks would remedy the situation. Village solicitor Jack Felgenhauer also suggested that event organizers should “police such
matters” with RV parking. He — and others — questioned whether it was worth it, though, since it would only be for a four-day event. Felgenhauer added that nothing currently in the village’s ordinance would allow the towing of an RV — but they could cite people with an infraction. “So, whatever you would do wouldn’t actually stop it. Just give them a citation for doing it,” Felgenhauer explained. Council member Erin Thompson pointed out that the people would have to be notified before the village could start taking action. But for now, Felgenhauer said it would be good to notify organizers that some actions by their people have affected the event. “If you want to amend the ordinance for the street fair, that’s up to you,” he told the council.
1 in 4 Ohio drivers admit they’d fail a road test if they had to take it now Before working from home over the last year, most people used cars almost daily, practicing the important road safety rules and basic parking skills stored since first learning to drive. Although being in lockdown might have saved on gas costs, some drivers might’ve also found that their driving skills got a little rusty. GuntherKia.com surveyed 4,000 drivers across the country to find out how many think they’d pass a hypothetical road exam right now. After being out of practice throughout the pandemic, the survey discovered that almost a quarter of Ohioans (24%) admit they’d fail their driving test if they had to take it now.
When asked if they would be more likely to fail the practical or theory part of the driving test, almost 1 in 5 said it would be the practical side they’d flunk. Perhaps this is why 71% of respondents believe that drivers should need to retake their driving test after a certain age, especially considering 34% of drivers admit they’ve developed bad driving habits since getting their license. Additionally, 39% of drivers think it should be mandatory for all motorists to have a dashcam — possibly to monitor the poor road habits for safety reasons. And more than a third (37%) of drivers believe the minimum driving age should be increased.
Defendant rejects plea offer BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ—Harrison County’s Common Pleas courtroom had several defendants not see their cases make it on record Tuesday, but one appeared via video conference to reject the state’s offer and settle his case. The 28-year-old Michael A. Moreland of Uhrichsville is facing two cases, one carrying over from last year. The 2020 case involves a possession charge of fentanyl, a fourth-degree felony. Moreland’s three 2021 charges include two for aggravated trafficking in drugs and one for aggravated possession of drugs, a fifth-degree felony. The two trafficking charges are third- and fourth-degree felonies.
Harrison County prosecutor Lauren Knight offered Moreland 30 months of prison with the opportunity for judicial release short of the full sentence. But Moreland rejected that offer and chose to send his case to a jury trial. No date has been set, but it’s expected to take place sometime in November. One defendant who did not appear on the record was the 24-year-old Christian Bishop of Adena, who is facing several charges: failure to comply (F3), two tampering with evidence charges (both F3), and a misdemeanor charge of falsification. The other case involved 25-year-old Auston Ford of Canton, and he faces a third-degree felony vehicular assault charge. Neither case was able to advance beyond pretrial conferences.
Ohioans urged to protect against Medicare scams COLUMBUS—Department of Insurance Director Judith L. French urges Ohioans on Medicare to guard against scams seeking personal information when selecting 2022 coverage during the Oct. 15 to Dec. 7 open enrollment period. “Fraud is rampant this time of year. Scammers know people are overwhelmed evaluating the different Medicare plans,” French said. “I encourage Ohioans to learn how to best protect themselves and become more familiar with Medicare. As a consumer protection agency, we’re closely monitoring the marketplace with our partners to protect Ohioans.” Ohioans should be on alert for fake Medicare communications seeking personal information or money in exchange for any of the following: to help with enrollment, to schedule health services, to sign up for a Part D prescription drug plan or Medicare health plan cover-
age, and to provide a new Medicare card. Here are some tips from the Department of Insurance: Never give personal information, including Medicare, Social Security, bank account, and credit card numbers, to anyone who contacts you unsolicited by telephone, email, text, or in person, such as door-to-door sales. Medicare will never call you to sell anything, visit your home, or enroll you over the phone unless you called first. Medicare or Medicare health plans will only call and request personal information if you’re a plan member or you called and left a message. Only give certain personal information to your doctors, insurance companies acting on your behalf, or trusted people in the community officially working with Medicare, such as the department’s Ohio Senior Health Insurance Information Program (OSHIIP).

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Joe Biden and his cabinet ‘need to stand trial for giving aid and comfort to a national enemy’ The Lead Inspector General, Sean O’Donnell, presented a report to the United States Congress from April 1 to June 30, 2021 concerning Operation Freedom’s Sentinel. In the report, former President Trump made an agreement with the Taliban for a U.S. withdrawal along with other NATO powers from Afghanistan on May 1, with stipulations that if the terms were not followed, the agreement would not stand. The report’s executive summary states the Taliban were increasing attacks in all regions of Afghanistan (voiding the Taliban agreement), and all Americans, allies, Afghan interrupters, SIV (special immigrant visa) holders, and equipment were to be totally removed. On April 14, Biden said the U.S. forces would begin their final withdrawal on May 1 and plan to complete it by Sept. 11, 2021. From April 14 to Aug. 14, a span of four months, nothing was done concerning the evacuation of souls and military equipment. The sign of this gross incompetence came to a head for all the world to see on Aug. 28 when a suicide bomber attacked Kabul airport leaving 18 U.S. soldiers wounded and 60 Afghan and 13 U.S. soldiers dead: Johanny Pichardo (25), Nicole Gee (23), Darin Hoover (31), Hunter Lopez (22), Daegan Page (23), Humberto Sanchez (22), David Espinoza (20), Jared Schmitz (20), Rylee McCollum (20), Dylan Merola (20), Kareem Nikoui (20), Maxton Soviak (22), and Ryan Knauss (23). The American people have not received an honest count of people abandoned in Kabul after Aug. 30 by our government. For-
mer soldiers and organizations are fulfilling the mission to leave no one behind and have been receiving roadblocks on getting these people out from our government. It is apparent that there was no exit plan in place. After the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the United States began the War on Terror. The war was raged against ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and the Taliban — a span of 20 years. On Aug. 15, the city of Kabul was taken by the Taliban. On Aug. 16, the U.S. began transporting staff from the U.S. Embassy. Thousands rushed to leave the country as Taliban flags were flown in Kabul. Our government officials gave the Taliban a list of eligible evacuees. What kind of leadership gives the enemy a list of names? How evil are they? This all lies with Lloyd Austin, Department of Defense; Mark Milley, Joint Chiefs of Staff; Samantha Power, U.S. Agency for International Development; Antony Blinken, Department of State; Jake Sullivan, National Security Advisor; Kamala Harris, Vice President; and Joe Biden, Commander-in-Chief. Many are calling for an apology or resignation. No, they all need to stand trial for giving aid and comfort to a national enemy in such a way that amounts to treason and dereliction of duty. The shameful failure to fulfill one’s obligations and the fraud — lying to the American people about the situation — continue to this day. No actions or business in Congress should be done until this matter is fully investigated. -MERICA PETRELLA OF STEUBENVILLE
Harrison County ‘a quiet powerhouse’ for oil and gas production Spread across 400 square miles of rural Appalachian foothills in the Seven Ranges of Ohio, Harrison County is a quiet powerhouse of oil and gas production in America. Sitting at the northeastern hub of the U.S. petrochemical industry, between the Utica and Marcellus shales, and within 600 miles of 60% of the continent’s manufacturing centers, it’s become the epicenter of U.S. shale production, allowing it to become one of Ohio’s top-performing local economies. According to a Cleveland State University analysis, the landscape for shale and renewable energy investments in Harrison County is ripe with opportunity, with spending on shale-related activities in Ohio reaching $86.4 billion in 2019. Add to those the significant land royalty payments to local residents, increased tax revenues ($11 million generated between 2010 and 2015), and improved transportation infrastructure ($31.4 million spent on building and improving 54.75 miles of roads), while maintaining Harrison County’s natural beauty, and you’ve got evidence that businesses should be looking to capitalize on the new global economy in Harrison County. “There’s this converging appeal to Harrison County,” begins Dana Saucier, vice president and head of economic development for JobsOhio. “It’s full of rolling
hills, lush forests, lots of outdoor activities, plus this amazing Muskingum Watershed area. It’s also been blessed with incredible geology thousands of feet below it that has allowed for an industry to flourish. A lot of folks look at the energy resilience in America, and really, 85% of that has come from our region. It just goes to show you how important a place like Harrison County is, not only to itself but to the state and country, as well.” The economic situation is even more favorable now than it was back in coal’s heyday, with Harrison County pivoting to accommodate an enormous influx of oil and gas enterprises since 2010. “The oil and gas industry has endowed the landowners and businesses of this region with incredible wealth,” says Saucier. “That wealth has ensured a reinvestment in the community and schools. We’ve retained the beauty of the county and its natural landscape while protecting the environment. It’s been an amazing opportunity to have both effectively merging in a symbiotic way.” The whole story was featured in Business View Magazine and interviewed Dana Saucier and Nick Homrighausen, executive director of the Harrison County Community Improvement Corporation.

Post 725 brings Commissioners honor first responders Legion rivals together BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com
CADIZ—The week of Sept. 20-26 is First Responder Frontline Worker Appreciation Week, as stated by the Mental Health Recovery Board’s Patrica Allen during Wednesday’s commissioners’ meeting. “And we want to take that opportunity to recognize the people who have been on the frontlines, who have been tirelessly fighting against the opioid epidemic,” Allen explained. She included police, firefighters, EMS workers, children’s service workers, nurses, and corrections staff. “Sometimes, I’m quite sure they feel very overwhelmed and frustrated and feel as if their
efforts are fruitless; however, they do make a difference, and we want them to know that we appreciate them bringing help and bringing hope to their communities,” Allen stated. Commissioner Dale Norris read Resolution 42-21 on behalf of the board in representing the honor. Within the resolution promoting family and workforce development were ways to fight addiction and “encourage community engagement” to confront the crisis. “Therefore, be it resolved that the board of Harrison County Commissioners pledge our support for the individuals, family members [and] professionals throughout our community who are bringing help and bringing hope by working day in and day out to save lives,” as read by Norris.
Commissioners extend power plant agreement BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ—With all the recent activity swirling around solar and magnesium companies taking up space on Industrial Park Road, the Harrison Power Plant has taken a back seat. But signs have trickled in over the past year, hinting that the power plant is still coming. On Wednesday, the Harrison County commissioners agreed (in Amendment 32-18) to extend an original enterprise zone tax agreement from 2018 that stated the plant would be completed by 2021. The amendment now extends that agreement to 2024.

740-942-2118 Headline 3 Former owners of the Harrison News-Herald, David and Emily Schloss, have moved on from their two-decade stint in local news. The duo purchased the Harrison News-Herald in 1999, their first newspaper business, under Schloss Media and began accumulating other newspapers and publications, which once totaled six entities in all. Now, having just the News-Herald left in their care, the Schloss family has passed the business into the hands of a former reporting intern to round out their more than twenty years of print. “It is bittersweet, of course. This newspaper has been at the center of our enterprise and our life for over 20 years, and we were very blessed during that time. However, I am very encouraged and excited for the next chapter in the history of the News-Herald. Bonnie is very talented, hard-working and has the energy to carry the News-Herald forward for

many years to come in serving the needs of Harrison County.” Bonnie Rutledge (Higgins), born and raised in Harrison County, took a summer internship at the newspaper three years ago as she worked through college. Schloss graciously explained other facets of the business over time, and, three years later, has helped her step into the new role of ownership. She looks forward to refreshing the content, look and reach of the newspaper, as well as supporting the community in every way possible. “Local News is not going away,” Rutledge stated. “Truthful reporting is imperative to our community, both socially and politically. Our goal is to display the facts in effective, accessible ways for our readers to enjoy. As citizens, it is our responsibility to stay informed. As the local newspaper, it is our responsibility to deliver quality information that is factual-
ly and grammatically accurate, aesthetically pleasing, and functionally understandable. And as the community, it is our responsibility to rally around each other and stay connected--those three responsibilities are the heart of the newspaper.” Harrison County’s newspaper dates as far back as 1815 when the Cadiz Republican released its first volume. The Scio Herald rolled off the presses in 1879, and the Freeport Press-Herald followed suit a couple decades later. All three papers were combined into one area newspaper in 1968, when co-publishers Maynard A. Buck and Milton Ronshiem pooled their time and resources to centralize county news in the merged Harrison News-Herald. Today, we are looking forward to a modern, comprehensive improvement of the age-old pages read anew each week.
CADIZ—The 2021 Wendy’s Walk for Breast Cancer Awareness is scheduled for Oct. 9. This year’s walk will mark 13 years since Wendy Ledger (founder) was diagnosed with cancer, and it’s the 10th year that the walk has been held. Wendy still has metastatic breast cancer and continues her fight daily, along with providing breast cancer awareness through the fundraiser. “I have been doing Wendy’s Walk to raise money for local women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer,” Ledger said. “This is the 10th year for the walk. In addition to the walk, we will be holding a quarter auction and a car and motorcycle cruise-in. The opening for the event will begin at the Jewett Volunteer Fire Department. The 5k run/walk is at 10 a.m., with registration from 9–9:45 a.m. The quarter auction will begin at 1. The car cruise-in will be from 12 p.m. through 4 p.m. and will be at the Jewett Wildcat Community Center. I am always accepting sponsors for the event but need to have anyone wishing to be a sponsor contact me by Oct. 1,” she
Riesbeck’s Foods cuts their red ribbon in Scio
The deadline to submit material to the News-Herald is noon on Wednesdays. Phone: 740-942-2118 Harrison Regional Chamber of Commerce and Village of Scio extended a warm welcome to the Riesbeck family last Tuesday morning. Chatter of new beginnings and fresh products filled the store as the Riesbeck family gathered for their ribbon cutting ceremony. Once Baker’s Hometown IGA, the Scio grocery store is now officially operating as the fifteenth location of Riesbeck’s Foods. The Riesbeck family history is rooted in the grocery industry, as indicated by the family-owned-and-operated team. Ninety-six years ago, the Riesbeck’s grandmother, Margaret Schumacher, opened a corner store in Woodsfield, Ohio. Since then, the family has strived to instill in themselves and their employees the same values their grandmother ran her business with--dignity, respect, courtesy, and Regular Body Copy helpfulness, along with a smile and a kind word.

Householder has adamantly maintained his innocence and stated he’d never taken a bribe in his life but a Department of Justice (DOJ) press release from July 30, 2020 says differently. “Householder received more than $400,000 in personal benefits as a result of the payments into Generation Now, including funds to settle a personal lawsuit, to pay for costs associated with his residence in Florida, and to pay off thousands of dollars of credit card debt.” Jones said they had begun the process, which included two hearings but then it was yanked away and “they went right to the floor with it.” When asked why would there even be a vote before his day in court he could only repeat what he’d been saying, which is the process was “circumvented.” Jones also spoke of Householder being reelected last November picking up 32,000 votes after being removed as speaker last July. “But he received thirty-two thousand votes from the people in his district and we just told

The state Constitution allows expulsion for “disorderly conduct” without defining it,” according to an Associated Press story dated June 16, 2021 (Welsh-Huggins, Amiri and Smyth). “It is alleged that the (criminal) enterprise conspired to violate the racketeering statute through honest services wire fraud, receipt of millions of dollars in bribes and money laundering,” as stated by the DOJ press release.

ADENA—The coming together of the Harrison Central and Buckeye Local senior football players has become a tradition staged by the Adena American Legion Post 725 for many years. It will be held again on Oct. 18 at 11 a.m. at the Adena legion home. It is a luncheon event where both teams are introduced and praised for their work on the turf. The legion members have a program showing their pride in both teams, and there has been a gigantic trophy with the winning teams engraved each year. Harrison Central was the winner last year, and the school received the tall trophy to take back to the school. Team members come dressed with respect to the occasion and introduce themselves, although many are already known from the legion members’ attending games. No one knows how each game will end, but the Legion’s tradition of honoring the players goes on.

The Cadiz Business Association met for their September meeting, and their biggest takeaway was to get the ball rolling with the Christmas season Snow People on the Square. The 42-inch-by-24-inch plywood snowpeople are now open for purchase; every new snowman will run at $50 for each individual, business, or organization. Those looking to bring back their snowperson from years past can reup the sponsorship for $20; all fees include the post, set-up, and off-season storage. The CBA was emphatic that people get their applications in before the Oct. 30 deadline. In fact, no applications will be accepted after that cutoff date. The application comes with the option to keep the same snowperson from last year, order a new one for 2021, or have a basic design that includes a top hat. Every sign-up allows for “creative control.” There will be an additional information section for the artists that signees can add details to their snowmen. Otherwise, sponsorship names for the snowperson, an address, an email, and a phone number are required for the applications. Checks can be made to the Cadiz Business Association, and mail payments can be sent to the Harrison County Visitor Center (143 S. Main Street Cadiz, Ohio 43907). Snowman applications can be found on the Harrison County Visitors Center Facebook page.

Commissioner Dale Norris read the agreement explaining that the 15-year “real property tax exemption” would begin on Dec. 31, 2025 and run till 2040. Commissioner Paul Coffland explained they received communication from Bricker & Eckler, the legal firm working with the county in its communications with EmberClear (the company backing the proposed power plant). “When the original agreement was signed for the PILOT, we had projected construction timelines and tax exemption start and end dates,” Coffland said. He added that the agreement extension was simply adjusting the timelines including the exemption period.

Huskies boys’ soccer ties one, drops two BY JULIE MARSHALL Harrison News-Herald Sports Writer The Harrison Central boys’ soccer team traveled to St. Clairsville on Wednesday, Sept. 8 to face the Red Devils. Although the Huskies played “the best they had played all season,” according to head coach Derek Gramling, they were shut out by St. Clairsville 8-0. Huskies goalkeeper Jaydis Yoho racked up 10 saves during the game. Then on Friday, Sept. 10, the Golden Bears from Oak Glen came to challenge the Huskies. Before the game, the Huskies’ four seniors and their parents were honored. Oak Glen scored first 10 minutes into the opening half. The Huskies did not answer until midway through the second half when a Jace Madzia corner kick was headed into the goal by Jacob Mattern for a 1-1 tally. The game was a real nail-biter down to the last second when the game ended in a tie. In goal, Jaydis Yoho had 4 saves. Gramling commented, “The first half we played really well even with the early goal by Oak Glen. The second half we came out, pinned them in their half of the field and outperformed them. Adrenaline took over in the second half and showed the boys what our young team is capable of,” Gramling continued. “It was a very entertaining game, and I was slightly disappointed that we didn’t pull out the win.” Finally on Tuesday, Sept. 14, the Huskies hosted the East Liverpool Potters in Cadiz. The Potters scored twice in the first half and once in the second half shutting out the Huskies and leaving them scoreless with a final of 0-3. Jaydis Yoho ended the game with 5 saves. Gramling stated after the game, “East Liverpool scored some scrappy goals, and it was a good learning experience for our young goalie. We played al-

right tonight, but we just couldn’t get a goal, and we had to defend wave after wave from another opponent with mostly seniors.” The Huskies have seven new and eight returning players this year, and many of the players are stepping into different positions on the field. Rounding out the defense is Jaydis Yoho in goal and Taylor Cope, Ben Puskarich, and Kadon Jurosko as defenders. Playing midfield this season is Cameron Dulkoski, Kayden Dunkle, Mack Marshall, and Clayton Everhart. In the forward position is Jace Madzia, Jacob Mattern, and Tyler Bender. Providing relief from the bench is Austin Fulton, Brady Elliott, Caleb Miller, and Peyton Roski. There is not a team that can match the heart of this Huskies boys’ soccer team. They hustle until the final whistle and leave everything they’ve got on the field. Support the Huskies at their next home game against Coshocton High School on Saturday, Sept. 18 at 11 a.m.
BY SHARON DALTON Harrison News-Herald Sports Writer The Husky girl’s soccer team honored their three seniors, Rebecca Downs, Kadence Tanner, and Maggie Goudy, before taking on the Edison Wildcats on Saturday, Sept. 11. They would celebrate with a 10-0 victory over the Wildcats. Lily Gibbons led the scoring with a hat trick. Collette Downs would contribute 2 goals while Goudy, Tanner, Maddy Bender, Lexi Smith, and Isabelle Yeager would finish the scoring with one goal each. Angi Ferri had 3 assists, and Tanner, Rebecca Downs, and Alina Williams each had one. The Huskies would visit Weirton Madonna on the evening of Sept. 13. After an evenly played first half, the game was still scoreless. But the Blue Dons took the upper hand with a goal at the 27-minute mark. Two and a half minutes later, Gracie Rogers took the ball up the field and scored to tie the game 1-1. With 20 minutes left in the second half, the Blue Dons scored on a direct kick to take the lead, 2-1. The Huskies were unable to find the net again, ending the game with a 2-1 loss. The Huskies traveled to East Liverpool on Thursday, Sept. 16 to face the Potters.

Jets take flight in second half, down Huskies 41-18
BY D.J. WATSON Harrison News-Herald Sports Writer
CADIZ—For a half, last week’s game between the Union Local Jets and the Harrison Central Huskies was quite an interesting contest. Turnovers, explosive plays, and two teams with a long history on live television (WTOV9 Thursday Night Game of the Week) always makes for a great night of football. The script was reading off just like many predicted it would: a back-and-forth affair that had the Huskies up 18-14 at the 5:28 mark of the second quarter. Then, with an interception-turned-fumble all in one play, the night went in two completely different directions for the Harrison News-Herald Photo/D.J. WATSON Jets (3-0) and Huskies (2-2).

“This is a tough one to swallow. It seemed like anytime that we did something good, we turned around, and within the next play or two, we would self-destruct. Whether on offense or defense, we just could not make a play when we were in position to make the play. And, we had plenty of opportunities to make
plays and change the game,” remarked head coach Anthony Hayes. Union Local posted 19 unanswered points in the final two quarters, as Harrison struggled to maintain drives on offense and tackle Hayden McCrate on defense. The Jets’ running back tallied up 210 rushing yards and two touchdowns to highlight a big night for head coach Bernie Thompson’s program.

“Our tackling was as poor as I have seen in a while. We need to make it a point to correct that immediately if we want to get this thing turned around,” Hayes commented. The Huskies went 1-9 on third-down conversions, an 11% conversion rate on a must-win down. In comparison, the Jets converted 50% of the time. However, Harrison did convert on two fourth downs to keep drives alive. Offensively, the Jets outgained the Huskies 389-256. Harrison QB Hayden Cassidy slung it around for 137 yards passing. Cameron Mcafee was his favorite target, pulling in 6 catches for
89 yards. Jonathan Vermillion had a 46-yard touchdown grab. Cassidy was active on his feet as well, picking up 62 yards on the ground. Nathan Bertolino finished with 45 yards, and Mykel Quito added another 25 marks to the rushing attack. Cassidy and Bertolino added a touchdown each on the ground to round out Harrison’s scoring. The East Liverpool game scheduled for this weekend has been canceled due to virus issues for the Potters. The Huskies are slated to be in action again on Sept. 24 on the road against St. Clairsville.
OSUX bringing ‘21 cattle school sessions to Harrison, Jefferson Counties Join the Ohio State University Extension on Oct. 26 and 28 from 7-9 p.m. for the 2021 Fall Cattle Management School. Each session will cost $10 per person; anyone 12 and younger can attend at no cost. A boxed meal will be provided as part of the registration fee. The Oct. 26 schooling session will cover preconditioning programs and co-op models for cattle. The session will be held at the Harrison County Fairgrounds Commercial Building (550 Grant Street Cadiz, OH 43907). Preregistration is required and can be done at go.osu. edu/cmsmarketing. Guest speakers will include Garth Ruff, beef cattle field specialist for OSU Extension and Hannah Scott, program manager of CFAES Center for Cooperatives OSU South Centers. Small-scale cattle operations sometimes struggle to market their livestock at prices high enough to recover costs, so preconditioning programs and co-ops provide opportunities for local producers to pool cattle and add value. Preconditioning refers to management practices implemented around weaning that focus on improving calves’ immune system function and nutritional status to reduce the risk of sickness and mortality. Co-ops can help producers to better market and process livestock. The Oct. 28 session will be centered on beef quality assurance (BQA) certification. Anyone needing to become certified or recertified for next year is encouraged to attend. “Consumers are concerned for animal health
and the sustainability of the production systems their food’s raised in.” This statement is just one of several that has led to teaching and certifying Ohio’s cattlemen in beef quality assurance to become a priority. Additionally, Tyson Foods, which harvests and processes 25% of the U.S. beef market share, and Wendy’s, the U.S.’ second-largest fast food hamburger chain, have both started purchasing from BQA-certified producers and feedyards. So not only are today’s consumers sharing their concerns, but now the businesses that supply the public’s demand for quality beef products raised humanely and sustainably want guarantees that it’s happening throughout the production chain. In response, Ohio State University Extension is working with the Ohio Beef Council, the Ohio Cattlemen’s Association, and Ohio’s cattle auction markets and collection points to offer Ohio’s cattlemen several opportunities to become BQA certified. This session will be held at the Ohio Valley Towers’ second-floor conference room (500 Market Street Steubenville, OH 43952). Preregistration is required for the second session, as well (go.osu.edu/21fallbqa). If you can’t attend the in-person BQA training, then visit www.bqa.org to get certified online. The online training consists of lessons and quizzes to become certified and will take around two hours. OSU Extension’s Erika Lyon can be reached at 740-461-6136 or lyon.194@osu.edu for further information.
Good NEWS
The God Who Pursues You By Pastor Ken Staley
There’s nothing like coming home after a hard day, reaching in the mailbox, and finding a letter from the IRS that says, “Hi, we’ve been looking for you.” Oh boy. But the best news any sinner can hear is, “God is looking for you.” His pursuit of you began before you were born, and that’s a good thing. In Psalm 139, David wrote, “You go before me and follow me. I’m never out of your sight. You place your hand of blessing on my head; I can never escape from your Spirit.” You can never run from God. And even when you distance yourself from God, he still pursues you. He pursued Adam in the Garden of Eden in Genesis 3:9: “Then the Lord God called to the man, and said to him, ‘Where are you?’” Did God have a lapse in omnipotence? No, he knew exactly where Adam was, and he knows where you are. Adam hid from God because of his sin. Millions of people are doing the same thing today, but God is graciously still asking his creation, “Where are you?” He is pursuing because it’s his desire is that everyone is saved. Jesus said in Luke’s gospel, “The Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are pursuing you. John Wesley called it “prevenient grace,” the act of God putting things in motion for every individual’s salvation. How does he do that? Many times, the Holy Spirit crafts life events and uses people, known and un-
Stop the Stigma Walk to be held Sept. 25 The Family Recovery Center and the Mental Health and Recovery Board are hosting a Stop the Stigma Walk from 1-3 p.m. on Sept. 25 at the Harrison Central track and field stadium. Representatives of the walk, like Family Recovery’s community coordinator Emily Dodds, are “looking to reduce stigma around harm reduction and opioid misuse in Harrison County.” Prospective participants can represent the Harrison County Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition or another organization in one-hour blocks of the walk (1-2 p.m. or 2-3 p.m.). All proceeds from the walk will go to Veteran Affairs. Dodds can be reached at 740-491-7892 for more information on the walk.
known to you, in his pursuit of you. It could be an evangelist, a co-worker, or a relative. But he uses whatever it takes in his pursuit of the lost. In chapter 15 of Luke’s gospel, Jesus is surrounded, as usual, by scribes and Pharisees complaining that Jesus spent too much time with sinners and tax collectors. That’s when Jesus revealed his heart and that of the Father by preaching three of his most memorable parables: the Lost Sheep, the Lost Coin, and the Lost (Prodigal) Son. “If a man has a hundred sheep and has lost one of them, does he not leave the 99 and go after the one which is lost until he finds it? When he finds it, he lays it on his shoulders, calls his friends, and says, ‘Rejoice with me, I found my sheep which was lost!’ There will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over 99 righteous persons who need no repentance.” What a great picture of the mercy of God: we wander off, and he, in his great mercy, comes looking for us. He is the God who pursues us. And he rejoices when he finds us. When we become a covenant child of God, we can lay claim to Zephaniah 3:17: “For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will quiet all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.” It’s a tall order for some people to believe that the God of the universe is rejoicing over them with singing, but scripture declares it so. Isn’t it great to be pursued?

The hemoglobin A1C test is an important blood test used to determine how well your WE INSTALL blood sugar is being controlled. Hemoglobin YEAR-ROUND! A1C provides an average of your blood sugar control over a six to 12 week period. LIFETIME Hemoglobin is a substance within red WARRANTY blood cells that carries oxygen throughout your body. When diabetes is not controlled (meaning that your blood sugar is too high), sugar builds up in your blood and combines with your hemoglobin, becoming “glycated.” Therefore, the average amount of sugar in your blood can be determined by measuring a hemoglobin A1C level. If your glucose levels have been high over recent weeks, your hemoglobin A1C test will be higher. The amount of hemoglobin A1C will reflect the last several weeks of blood sugar levels, typically encompassing a period of 120 days.

Vitamin D Testing Vitamin D helps to promote bone development and maintain bone and skeletal health by enhancing the intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphorus. People who have inadequate exposure to sunlight or who lack access to sufficient amounts of food containing calcium may have low Vitamin D levels. Vitamin D deficiency is associated with bone diseases such as rickets, osteomalacia and osteoporosis; emerging evidence also suggests links to illnesses such as infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, heart disease, cancer (especially colorectal and breast cancer) and depression. Low vitamin D levels can be associated with muscle weakness that can increase the risk of falls and bone fracture, especially with the elderly. High levels of Vitamin D are possible, if person is taking Vitamin D supplements or has hyperparathyroidism, sarcoidosis, tuberculosis or lymphoma.

PSA (prostate Specific Antigen) test for men The PSA test has been widely used to screen men for prostate cancer. The test measures the blood level of the ProstateSpecific Antigen, a protein produced by the prostate gland. The higher a man’s PSA level the more likely it is that he has prostate cancer. A number of benign (non-cancerous) conditions can cause a man’s PSA level to rise, such as prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (enlargement of the prostate).

LOOK AT THE PAST Scio College By Sue Adams
SCIO—The college began as The Rural Seminary in Harlem Springs, Ohio (Carroll County). The Rural Seminary was coeducational from the start, but the college operated largely as a female seminary during the Civil War. Expansion of facilities was needed, and Harlem Springs had no railroad for transportation, so the college was moved to Scio, aka New Market, during the 186667 school year. In 1870, the college’s name was changed to New Market College. In the spring of 1875, it was reorganized as the One-Study University. During the winter of 1875, the citizens of New Market changed the village’s name to Scio. And the One-Study University became Scio College in 1878. It became the college’s final name. By Dec. 19, 1911, the college continued to struggle with finances. The college was in arrear in meeting faculty salaries, new equipment, and building maintenance. The trustees of Scio College formally ratified the
merger of the college with Mount Union. Scio College had fulfilled its mission. In the more than half a century of its existence, it made definite educational, social, religious, and cultural contributions to the surrounding area and the village of Scio, in particular. As one of its devoted alumni paid tribute: “Scio College was always poor in purse, but rich in achievement. It did a great work on a small capital.” (copied from Our Harrison Heritage Summer 1995). The history of Scio College came from the book “A Select School” by Newell Yost Osborne.

Charles will be missed by his family and friends. Jeff, Deb, Kevin, and Kyra Milligan wish to thank family and friends for all they did when Jeff had his heart attack. SMITHFIELD By Esther McCoy The Buckeye Local Panthers and its fans were elated over the football win against Toronto last week. If it were all Smithfield players, as it was up until the early 1970s when it was Smithfield High School Spartans, there would have been car and truck horns blowing and lots of yelling out the vehicle windows on the way back into the village. It is great to have Jim Hoover as head coach from the local school where he performed on the football field years back. In reading the sports page, Skyler Ebright, a speedy sophomore, made the first touchdown. Coach Hoover told his players that every game would be a dog fight and come out with their teeth showing. It worked last week; now they are working hard to improve on the past 0-2 record and having lost a game to a quarantine. The Jefferson County Farm Bureau officers announced that Sara Vein, daughter of Rob and Brandy Vein of Bloomingdale and an Indian Creek High School graduate, received a $500 scholarship and plans to attend Eastern Gateway Community College, majoring in radiology technology. Mary McConnell of Richmond, a graduate of Edison Local School, plans to attend Wilmington College, majoring in biology health sciences. “We have worked around and through the COVID-19 pandemic only to find ourselves still working through it,” said John Grafton, president of the Jefferson County Farm Bureau. The milking cow was a highlight at the booth staged by the Promotion and Educa-
tion and Farm Bureau workers at the fair. Lots of children had the opportunity to try their hand at milking. The milk was a white mixture that resembled the high-in-calcium refreshment. And there were lots of bottles of chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla milk sold in pints at the fair. Jeanna Roberts and Connie Crawford did a splendid job of getting the booth set up and ready with the help of the officers. DEERSVILLE By Susan Adams After many attempts and podium finishes, Koda Devore capitalized on the center box in West Virginia and became the fastest amateur in the nation! He also earned his 120th career win on Sept. 12. Congratulations, Koda and all the people who helped make this possible. Thanks to all of you fans for keeping this fire burning. Koda is the son of Travis and Nikki Devore of rural Stillwater. The new hours for the Deersville General Store are 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. The Deersville Community Garden Club met at the home of Betty McConnell with Lorraine Gladman as co-hostess. Eight members were present. The meeting was called to order with the group singing “Sunshine and Rain.” Roll call was taken, the minutes from the previous meeting were approved, and the treasurer’s report was accepted as presented. In old business, this is the month to draw for the scholarship fund. Since there were no submissions, the group voted to give $100 to the Wellness Pregnancy Center in Cadiz. In new business, the group decided to send a gift to Edith Taylor, who could not come to the meeting. The group held a fall decoration auction, and the proceeds will be added to the scholarship fund. The minutes from the Sept. 18, 1951 meeting (at the home of Fern Dix) were read. It is always interesting to hear what was happening 70 years ago. The meeting closed with the reading of the “Gardener’s Prayer.” Susan Adams presented the program on fertilizers and tonics (commercial and homemade). Then a review quiz was given, and prizes were awarded. Grace was extended, and the group enjoyed delicious refreshments provided by the hostesses. The next meeting will be on Oct. 14 at the home of Rebekah Henry with Becky Walton as co-hostess. The 100th Anniversary of the Feed Springs school was a success on Sept. 11. The committee would like to thank everyone who came. The books have been closed on the oneroom school group, and they have turned over the information to the Feed Springs Church; it’s now up to them if they want to continue the tradition. Donna Panter, president, and Betty Gladman, secretary-treasurer of the school group, would like to thank everyone for their support over the years. Angie and Jason Bosler are so thankful that their chocolate lab Flick is back home safe. He took off for a couple of weeks and has been found safe. Thank you to all who were helping search for him. Would you like to buy a house for $1? The red house (former parsonage) is to be torn down in the near future. The Deersville UM Church said they would sell it for $1, but it must be moved off the lot before the demolition date. The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. They plan to build a picnic shelter there. Saturday, Sept. 18, from 4–7 p.m. will be a BBQ Chicken Dinner at the Asbury Chapel Church on the Deersville Ridge Road in Cadiz. Eatin or takeout is available; the cost is by donation. Saturday, Sept. 18: Junk in the Trunk will be held at Sally Buffalo Park from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Set up is $10 per space — space for one vehicle, table, and canopy (nothing larger than a pick-up). Register a spot by Sept. 13; vendors are needed. Call 740-942-1102 to register and have your questions answered. Wednesday, Sept. 22: At
6:30 p.m., at the Deersville UM Church will be the first of an eight-week Bible study, “Victory Over the Darkness,” written by Neil T. Anderson. Anne O’Planick will be the facilitator of this 13-chapter (video series) group study to help you learn how to grow in the strength and truth of your identity in Jesus Christ. On Saturday, Sept. 25 (4-7 p.m.) is the Ourant Schoolhouse Fall Festival. There will be live music by Sands of Time and old-fashion bean soup and cornbread, sandwiches, and homemade pies — a great fundraiser for maintaining the historic one-room school. Please come help support this cause and look through the school building to get a glimpse at the past. It’s just off Deersville Ridge on Ourant Road; signs will be posted. Please support all the local businesses. They are the people who support our children and civic groups. Some Deersville businesses are the Deersville General Store (740-827-4203), Bosler’s Honey Bees and Accessories (330-401-5889), The Stand on US 250 by Easy Tom’s Auto (330-204-9407, closed Saturday and Sunday), and the Hayseeds Homesteader Trading Post (740-4912835). It is a good idea to call ahead and make sure they are open or make an appointment. The Deersville UM Church has Sunday school at 9:45 a.m. and church services at 11 a.m. every Sunday. There is a prayer service on Wednesday nights at 7 p.m. All are welcome to come. If anyone is interested in taking over this news column, please let me know. Someone else could add some new insight into the info of the village and surrounding area. SCIO By Ina Marks I hope you had an enjoyable week. Scio was buzzing during the Scio Alumni. Folks from near and far attended the Alumni and visited families and friends. It was well-attended. The Merry Whirl card club met at Kathy Barrett’s home. It was a beautiful day with great food. Next time, the club will meet at the home of Patsy Brooks on the second Thursday in October at 1:00 p.m. The mosquitos have been terrible. The town has sprayed, but with so much rain, it made them worse. Our family is remembering our Barbara (McDonald) Johnson on her birthday. She was married to our brother Robert Johnson. She is missed so much, but R.I.P. Barb. Happy birthday and anniversary wishes go out to all celebrating Prayers and best wishes go out to all ill and shut-ins. Sympathy and prayers go to all families and friends that have lost loved ones. Bless you. R.I.P. Have a Blessed week.

were read and voted on separately. Coffland’s motion to deny the petition was accepted by a unanimous vote, but the commissioners’ sentiments contrasted the decision. Commissioners Don Bethel and Coffland both felt annexation would have been good for the county, and commissioner Dale Norris voted in favor of Article 5, also stating that annexation would’ve been good for the territory. Of the petition’s 11 issues and six articles, five were unanimous in favor, three against, and three split. Coffland was the lone objector to whether the petition was an accurate legal description of the perimeter, citing county engineer Doug Bachman’s assessment. He also objected to whether it included an accurate map or plat (also citing Bachman’s review). Another item they split on was whether the proposed annexation area was not unreasonably large. While Coffland and Bethel agreed, Norris disagreed and felt that it was “unreasonably large.” One unanimously agreed article focused on the benefits of annexation outweighing the detriments and the good of the community being served. “So, there’s no question that this would be a betterment of the community, the entire community including North Township,” Bethel stated. The commissioners were unanimously against the petition on the two parcels being contiguous and sharing common borders. Bethel cited both the prosecutor and engineer’s decision on this.

The commissioners were also unanimously against Article 6’s explanation on Leffler Road; they were concerned over who would maintain that road and saw no agreement come forth. Bethel said the details were unclear where he sided with Bachman and could not vote in favor. Tubaugh was present and told the board their vote did not put an end to the matter. He simply called it a “part
of the process.” Coffland responded, hoping that talks would continue between the interested parties. “There’s no doubt that I agree that the benefits far outweigh, you know, what we had to do today,” Coffland explained. Bethel added that he was looking for a reason to approve but could not get past certain issues within the petition (along with the other commissioners). Later, Tu-
