Tax Increase will help keep Lewis County safe Rita Cox Editor rita1@lewispnj.com Sheriff David Parrish is asking the public to help to continue to keep Lewis County a safe place to work and live.

That can be accomplished by approving the tax proposal increase that is on the ballot for the upcoming April 3 election.

The Sheriff ’s Office is seeking a one fourth of one cent increase in sales tax that will go directly to the Sheriff ’s Office and Prosecutor’s office.

The amount of the tax increase is very small, for every one hundred dollars a person spends, only twenty five cents would be added to the sales tax. So for this small amount, Lewis County will have more protection, better school coverage, and the jail will be able to operate and more criminals will be off the streets.

The Sheriff ’s Department needs more money to continue to operate and Parrish stated

many reasons why the tax increase is necessary.

There are several things the needed funds will be used for. One of the sheriff ’s main concerns is that the Lewis County School District is not located near a law enforcement office. The response time to an emergency could be over 20 minutes.

The Lewis County C-1 and Sheriff ’s Office are attempting to enter into a partnership to provide a school resource deputy. The Sheriff ’s Office already provides DARE and sponsors the Students Against Drunk Driving. A major concern has always been the distance the schools are from the Sheriff ’s Office. In the past, they have explored different ways to hire another deputy specifically for this purpose but haven’t had the funding. With the many school shooting tragic events, Parrish feels it is time to get a deputy at the school full time. Lewis County C-1 school board, administration, faculty

and staff have approved funding to partner with the county to provide this deputy. Parrish said Canton R-V district is fortunate to have the police department so the response time is not the same as the C-1 District. Canton R-V will soon have the Canton Police Department on site with an office in the Canton building.

The Sheriff ’s Department will continue to provide support to both districts. Sheriff Parrish said he would like to help the Canton Schools upgrade the current video surveillance system to provide added security at the school. A deputy would be hired and placed at the Highland campus. The deputy would also take care of matters that happen in the district such as child neglect, assaults, threats, etc., while also being involved in the DARE program and other projects with the school. When school is not in session, the deputy would have normal duties within the department.

The jail is also a big concern.

The state requires the Sheriff ’s Office to maintain and keep prisoners. If the county does not have a jail the prisoners must be transported to another facility outside the county, at a cost to Lewis County. 99 percent of Lewis County inmates are incarcerated on state charges.

If someone is arrested by a park ranger, trooper or city officer, the Sheriff ’s Office must pay for all costs associated with keeping the inmate. This includes food, clothing, medical care and transportation. The Sheriff ’s Office is responsible for picking up prisoners from all over the state and nation regardless as to who the original arresting agency was. They also transport prisoners to and from prison, which takes a deputy out of the area.

Jail staffing has been a major issue. Having a jail in a county is a deterrent to crime. There have been 45 jailers in the past ten years to cover four full time positions and two part time positions. For the last three

The Corner Laundry Opens

(photos by Rita Cox)

The Corner Laundry is now open at 414 Clark in Canton, Mo.

High capacity washers and dryers are available at the Corner Laundry

A new business, the Corner Laundry has opened in Canton at 414 Clark Street and is owned by John and Amber Campen. The bright new laundry has several coin operated washers and dryers. Two washers and two dryers are high capacity, enabling customers to wash and

Along with the washers and dryers, there are change machines, vending and snack machines, folding table, chairs and they will soon install a dispenser for laundry soap.

The business is open every day from 7 a.m. until 9 p.m. Doors are locked and

dry large loads.

John Campen said he opened the new business because there was such a need in Lewis County and many people had to travel out of town to get their clothes cleaned. He believes in keeping more services and businesses in Lewis County.

Events planned in St. Patrick, Mo. Several hundred people are expected to visit St. Patrick, Missouri, on Saturday, March 16 and 17, 2013. In addition to the special cancellation stamp and the Shrine of Saint Patrick, visitors will find the second Annual Irish Road Bowling event.

Irish Road Bowling is an ancient game, played for more than 300 years in County Armagh in Northern Ireland and in County Cork in Southern Ireland. The best description of game is that it is like golfing with a cannonball and a good sense of humor.

Irish Road Bowling consists of a ball, called a “bowl.�

It is made out of steel and weighs 28 ounces, heavy enough to pick up speed yet small enough for any person to handle.

Forty teams of four will compete, taking turns throwing the bowl as far as they can to get it across the finish line. Scored like golf, the fewest number of shots from the start to the finish line wins. Teammates not throwing at the time go 20-30 yards down the road to mark the desired path of the bowl. They stand like human cro-

quet wickets, feet apart, straddling the perfect path to be taken to achieve maximum distance. The game will take place on Highway 81 South, south of the St. Patrick city limits.

Teams with names such as Ricky’s Gaelickers, Country Leprechauns, The Bowl Movements and King Arthur and the Queens of the Road will dress in spring regalia and Irish green. Teams will be provided with all essential equipment which includes the bowl, scorecard, and chalk. There is a team fee and the event will begin with check-in at St. Patrick’s Old Irish Gift Shoppe beginning at 9:30 a.m. on March 16. Road Bowling begins at 10 a.m. Participants and spectators are welcome to bring their own rolling coolers and beverages. Contest runs rain or shine.

Throughout the day, the public can also enjoy Irish food and live music on Saturday, March 16t. On Sunday, March 17, St. Patrick’s Day, the annual dinner at the Shrine of St. Patrick will be served, along with other events to be enjoyed throughout the day.

(Continued from page 1A)

Tax increase will help keep Lewis County safe years a full time jail position was not funded because it is cheaper to employ part time employees. Parrish says this practice needs to change. Jail employees must have computer skills, TASER training, pepper spray training and the ability to deal with convicted felons who have committed every offense from child abuse to murder.

New funding will allow the Sheriff ’s Office to hire a full time jailer and increase the jailer pay to a more competitive level.

The Sheriff ’s Department currently has four deputies

and a sheriff. They have to cover over 500 square miles and protect over 10,000 people. Sheriff said they are fortunate to have fully staffed police departments in Canton and LaGrange, and the Sheriff Department assists those departments when needed.

With the proposed sales tax increase, the Sheriff said that Lewis County can maintain the level of protection while at the same time being able focus more on drug investigations, criminal activity, and other matters to keep the county and the residents safe.

unlocked automatically, at the same time each day. There is a panic bar on the door, if someone would get locked in accidentally.

Campen said the business will be well lit at all times and all machines are checked and serviced frequently to avoid theft, vandalism and service problems.

MoDOT Shares Snow Removal Facts With more than a dozen inches of snow falling over Northeast Missouri recently, MoDOT would first like to thank area residents for their patience and confidence as they worked the last two weeks to clear the snow.

What exactly does it take to prepare for and respond to winter weather affecting Missouri highways and bridges? Although an exact amount of how much the last few weeks cost Missouri taxpayers isn’t available yet, below are some facts about the Northeast District’s snow removal operations for the days of February 21 through February 28th.

Approximately 22,600 hours were recorded for all employees covering winter operations in those days.

Maintenance crews were working two 12 hours shifts to ensure that roads would become passable.

With around 250 pieces of MoDOT equipment and 13 contracted pieces of equipment utilized during these events, we covered nearly 300,000 miles.

Approximately 80,000 gallons of fuel was used within that time.

More than 2700 calls were personally answered by MoDOT staff in the customer service center.

Throughout the course of a winter storm, customers primarily call MoDOT for road conditions. “After a storm of this magnitude, we get a lot of frequently asked questions,� noted Paula Gough, MoDOT District Engineer. One of the most frequent is regarding damaged mailboxes: Question: Why does my mailbox sometimes get damaged when a plow comes by my house?

Answer: When a plow is kicking snow off of the road, sometimes the weight of the snow will damage a mailbox, or perhaps knock it over. Other times a plow may clip the post of a mailbox and damage it. We apologize when this happens, but we are making every effort to get the road open as much as we can. If notified of the damage, MoDOT will repair or replace the damaged mailbox; however, it may be a few days before we can get back with the owner or get it replaced, depending on how the snow cleanup is going. “We appreciate the public’s help to continue to make our roads safe during and after a winter event,� said Gough. “When winter weather strikes, motorists need to slow down and always buckle up,� she added.

Letter to Editor

IMAGES OF YESTERYEAR

As a great fan of the Home and Living Show held in Quincy, I enjoy seeing how to improve and get new ideas from the people who show and sell what they are doing to make all our homes better and more efficient places.

In 2012 I wrote an article about the Joplin Tornado and designed a tornado box that I said would have eliminated some of the 130 plus deaths that happened. At this year’s home show, the Hannibal Concrete Works had the most timely concrete tornado box I have ever seen.

It is a 18,000 pound reinforced concrete tornado box. I would call it a peace of mind insurance policy.

Mobile homes on private ground or in trailer parks are the most vulnerable during a tornado. They say this storm box will hold ten people. A mobil home park might be able to find a way to get a cost hare in some kind of grant. Put people to work making these storm shelters to save lives, maybe your own.

This is a cement box of many uses besides protection from a tornado. A place for your kids and grandkids to play in. A fruit cellar for garden produce. A gun safe you may need in the future. A wine storage cellar. This beautiful cement box is an asset to any property. Plant a flower or rose bed around your insurance policy. Adds value to your property when it is sold. Real estate people can say, “Look, here is your tornado protection, your play house, your gun safe.

Timely, we seem to have more deadly tornadoes each year. You can have peace of mind when the clouds grow dark with a deadly funnel center-piece. Be safe and get Barnett Bros. Machine Co and Garage was located on Fourth Street in Canton where Pierce’s building is now located. tornado protection.

Letter to Editor We are the parents of Lewis County C-1 students. We attend all activities are children are involved in and we support the Highland teams with our attendance and contributions.

My wife Tammy Sparks was involved in an incident that happened at Palmyra school in Oct. 2012 with a Highland school administrator, My wife saw the administrator with his finger in our 17 year olds face. She got in between him and our son. She told him not to put his finger in her son’s face. The administrator stated he was trying to find out what was going on, while pointing his finger in Tammy’s face. Our son was kicked out of that game for celebrating after performing a block against a Palmyra player.

During the argument between Tammy and the administrator, there were cuss words used by Tammy.

For this she is prohibited for six months to attend school activities and six months probation for her words.

This means she is not allowed to attend any school functions.Tammy has apologized to all, especially her own family, for her actions. She called the Palmyra School district to apologize.

She has missed our children’s sports banquet. She did not get to see our sophomore receive his first letter for football and our 17 year old senior, was stripped of his letter, by the administrator and the coach, stating that it was his fault for the altercation. Our son was humiliated at the banquet in front of everyone present and his team mates.

Tammy’s expulsion means she will not be able to see our boys play baseball, till May 2013. The administrator told her if she was a good girl he would let her come back at the end of April for Senior Night baseball.

Recently there was a male student of HHS that was caught stealing from the school, public knowledge, it was in the news. After a 15 day suspension he was let back to the school. Tammy was told that if she steps on school property she would be arrested for trespassing and if she went to away games, she would not be allowed to see our son’s graduation. Tammy has tried to get the school board to vote but has been denied and is not permitted at school board meetings, after requesting several times.

So it seems that if you steal, have a felony record, DUI, drug charges, or abuse your child you are more than welcome to Highland High School Lewis Co.C-1.

But do not say a bad word or all heck will break loose.

Tammy has been recording most of the games and activities since 1997. And we do have several disc’s with a lot of people out there that cuss at the ref ’s , ump’s, coaches but nothing seems to happen to them..

I just want to see justice done. It is called Due Process for a reason. Her punishment is over excessive according to the HHS policy for her first offense.

If you agree with me feel free to contact Lewis County C-1 school, voice your opinion before they take that away too.

LEWIS COUNTY HISTORY

BACKWARD GLANCES From the pages of early Lewis County newspapers 25 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Feb. 18, 1988 The Bank of LaBelle will hold an open house for people to view the new bank building and visit with the directors, officers and employees on Feb. 20.

Maggie Kellerman celebrated her 99 birthday at the Lewis County Nursing Home with a cake and party.

The Up With People advance team came to Canton to prepare for a visit.

45 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Feb. 22, 1968 Many friends and relatives honored Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Tuley Feb. 18 at a 50th wedding anniversary reception held in the Lewistown Baptist Church. Mr. Tuley spent most of his married life farming and carpentering.

He retired in 1962.

Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Savage of Williamstown celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary with an open house at the Providence Baptist Church.

Nearly 150 relatives and friends attended.

J.H. Bradshaw, 81, died Feb. 16. He was a retired farmer and a member of the Green Chapel Baptist Church in LaGrange.

50 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Feb. 28, 1968 The proposed new auditorium for the CulverStockton College fine arts center complex, will be named Alexander Campbell Auditorium, in honor of a founding father of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Dr. Fred Helsabeck,president of the college, announced the selection of the name, which has been approved by the Board of Trustees of the college. Dr. Helsabeck stated, “It is appropriate in the year which marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the college that a major building be selected to honor the outstanding early leader of the Christian Church who so stimulated members of the church in Missouri, that 13 years after he received their support and in undergirding Bethany College, which he established in West Virginia, that they established a comparable institution on the banks of the Mississippi River. The location, the curriculum and the basic

Jason Vaughn

Quick Facts: Name: Jason Vaughn

Missouri Conservation Agent

Hometown: Maywood, Mo. Education: Highland High School Hannibal-LaGrange University

Rita Cox of the Press-News Journal recently spoke with Jason Vaughn, the new Missouri Conservation Agent for Lewis County.

Previous Position: Conservation Agent for Moniteau County.

Favorite Pastimes: Hunting, fishing, sports, gardening, spending time with family.

Jason Vaughn is the Missouri Conservation Agent for Lewis County, He replaces Brock McArdle, who relocated to Colorado in December.

Background information: I was born and raised in Lewis County.

I graduated from Highland High school in 1997. I then attended and graduated from Hannibal LaGrange College with a degree in Administration of Justice. I played basketball in high school and college. I am married to my wife Ashleigh and we have a four year old boy and a one year old girl and another child expected soon.

What are some of your hobbies and pastimes?

I enjoy hunting, fishing, gardening, sports and spending time with my family.

What was your previous position?

I began as a Conservation Agent in 2005. I spent the last seven years living in California, Mo., as the Conservation Agent for Moniteau County.

Why did you become a conservation agent?

I became interested in pursuing a career in law enforcement while in college.

With the encouragement of my college advisor, I began to ride along with the local Conservation Agent. It did not take long to figure out how great the job was and that it is what I wanted to do.

Explain some of your duties as the Lewis County Conservation Agent.

An agent’s duties spans a wide range of needs. My work days depend a lot on the time of year and what outdoor activities are going on. First and foremost I enforce the wildlife code of Missouri. I also do many outreach activities, such as: programs for schools and civic groups, hunter education classes, kids fishing days, and youth hunts. As agent, I will also do other duties such as wildlife surveys and assisting land owners with issues like nuisance wildlife.

What are some of the programs or activities you will be involved in as a conservation agent?

I will be involved in Hunters Education and will teach classes a couple times a year. I will also be involved in the local

M K

Share the Harvest program. I also hope to have some youth events such has kids fishing days and youth hunts.

What agencies does the MDC work with?

As agent I will work closely with all other area Law Enforcement such as the Sheriff ’s Department and Highway Patrol. I will also work with and assist other conservation employees that manage the local public areas and work with land owners.

What are some of your day to day duties as a conservation officer?

One of the best things about being an Agent is not knowing what each day will bring. I may start a day going to a school and talking with kids about snakes and end that day spending the night at the river bank looking for illegal activity.

What are some outdoor activities people in Lewis County can enjoy?

Growing up in Lewis County I know we have an excellent outdoor history.

There are many fishing opportunities in the county with the Mississippi River and other smaller creeks, along with Lakes in LaBelle, Deer Ridge, and Wakonda State Park. With the landscape and habitat of Lewis County, we also have good deer and small game hunting, along with trapping.

As a new conservation agent, what do you hope to bring to the county?

I hope to promote a good understanding and compliance with the wildlife code of Missouri through a strong law enforcement program. I also hope to work with local Civic and Conservation groups to promote outdoor activities to youth and other groups that do not have the opportunity otherwise.

How can you be contacted?

The best way to contact me is to call me directly at 573-822-5178. Please call anytime you have a question or to report any Wildlife violations day or night.

The groups also performed at the Thorncrown Chapel in Eureka Springs, Ark. MEMBERS OF THE CULVER-STOCKTON COLLEGE CONCERT AND CHAMBER CHOIRS

Culver-Stockton nationally recognized for Community Service Culver-Stockton College has been named to the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll. The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) announced the honor roll this week. This is the fourth year the College has been honored with this appointment.

The Presidential Honor Roll was created to acknowledge higher education institutions for their commitment to volunteering, service-learning and civic engagement. “We congratulate the awardees and the students for their dedication to service,� said Wendy Spencer, CEO of CNCS. “These institutions have inspired students and faculty alike to roll up their sleeves and work alongside members of the community to solve problems and improve their neighbors’ lives.�

Inspired by the thousands of college students who traveled across the country to support relief efforts along the Gulf

Coast after Hurricane Katrina, CNCS has administered the award since 2006. “Communities are strengthened when we all come together, and we are encouraged that these institutions and their students have made service a priority,� said U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan. “Civic engagement should be a key component of every student’s education experience. Through reaching out to meet the needs of their neighbors, these students are deepening their impact, strengthening our democracy and ultimately preparing themselves to be successful citizens.�

College students make a significant contribution to their communities through volunteering and service, according to the most recent Volunteering and Civic Life in America report. In 2012, 3.1 million college students dedicated more than 118 million hours of service across the country — a contribution valued at $2.5 billion.

We set the stage for our students with the Extreme Dome Makeover: on our incoming students’ second day on campus, they spend a full eight hours working to improve the Canton community. This creates the precedent for their four years at C-SC. �

Lewis Hybrids® Dealer of the Year, Ursa Farmers Coop (“UFC”) recently presented a donation to the Lewis County Fair Grounds Board. Pictured from left to right: Chris Buckert (DSM), Michael Hicks (UFC Salesman), Alva Farr (Lewis County Fair Board Member), Brenda Wright (Lewis County Fair Board President), Scott Lewis (Lewis Brand Lead), and Doug Wilson (Lewis County Fair Board Member)

Lewis Hybrids recently honored Ursa Farmers Coop of Ursa, Illinois with its Frank W. Lewis Dealer of the Year Award. As part of their commitment to local farming communities, Lewis Hybrids contributed $1,000 to the dealer’s charitable organizations of choice: $500 each to the Adams County 4-H Federation and Lewis County Fair Grounds Board.

The Dealer of the Year

Award honors Frank W. Lewis, founder of Lewis Hybrids in 1964. The award serves as a way to recognize outstanding partnerships with dealers who exude the same commitment to farmers through innovation and customer service as Lewis Hybrids. Since Frank Lewis founded the company, Lewis Hybrids has grown from serving approximately 50 local

growers to 1500 in 2012.

The recent introduction of the year-round Lewis Service Promise builds upon the same core values and beliefs with which Frank Lewis started the company: a commitment to specific placement, regionally-adapted solutions, year-round commitment and treating customers like family. UFC was selected as Dealer of the Year for their excellence

Seat Belts Just Don’t Click With Teens Under Missouri’s Graduated Driver License Law, seat belt use is required for young drivers. It is a primary offense. Unfortunately 34 percent of Missouri teens don’t buckle up. To lower that percentage, law enforcement will be out in full force March 15-31 to crack down on unbelted drivers and save lives.

One in four Missouri traffic crashes involves a young driver. Between 2010 and 2012, 243 teens (15-19) were killed in traffic crashes. Of those killed, 78 percent were unbuckled.

“Many drivers take the attitude that ‘it will never happen to me,’ especially teens, but fatal crashes happen every day to all types of people,” said Leanna Depue,

chair of the executive committee of the Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety.

“Law enforcement will ticket teens who aren’t buckled up.”

Missouri will also continue to educate teens on the importance of buckling up through statewide seat belt programs, such Battle of the Belt and Team Spirit.

“The best way to reach teens is through their peers,” said Depue. “We’re asking teens to help save the lives of their friends by reminding them to buckle up every time they get in a car.”

Fundraising Opportunity

with helping customers and putting service at the core of all things they do, using the Lewis Hybrids Promise of One Field at a Time!® Lewis County Fair Grounds Board was also the recipient of a $500 donation on behalf of UFC. The Lewis County Fair has been a Lewistown tradition for over 30 years. According to Lewis County Fair Board President Brenda Wright, UFC’s donation combined with other sources of funding will help repair the 30-year old roof on the beef barn, which is used for various 4-H and open shows.

COMMUNITY NEWS Paula Gough selected to participate in Leadership Missouri

Spicknall Bull is Champion

Paula Gough, PE, District Engineer for the Missouri Department of Transportation’s Northeast District, joins an elite group of 36 Missouri business and state leaders chosen to participate in Leadership Missouri, a sevenmonth leadership enhancement program sponsored by the Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

Leadership Missouri, founded in 1990, is an education program designed to enhance the leadership skills of current and emerging leaders through an in-depth exploration of the state’s economic, political, and social issues. Gov. Jay Nixon serves as the honorary chairman of Leadership Missouri.

Leadership Missouri is designed to help business, government, and civic leaders better understand the diverse issues facing Missouri employers, communities and government. Over the course of seven months, beginning in April and ending in October, participants meet each month in a different Missouri city and focus on specific challenges facing that community and our state.

The Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry (www.mochamber.com) was founded in 1923 and is the largest business association in Missouri, representing almost 3,000 employers providing more than 425,000 jobs for Missourians.

1. Seems like everyone has a cell phone in today’s world. How did we ever live without them? They can be quite useful, except when you are driving. Driving is a full-time job. If your phone call is so important it can’t wait, then pull off the roadway and use your cell phone. A few moments of time lost is better than a life lost.

COMMUNITY NEWS Missouri Woman in Agriculture contest

Lewis County Nursing Home Auxiliary

photo by Rita Cox Members of the Lewis County Nursing Home Auxiliary recently presented the home with a large screen television for the residents and visitors to enjoy. The club meets at the home and provides activities for the residents including birthday and holiday parties.

Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving chair of the coalition. “These numbers show that law enforcement is committed to enforcing Missouri laws.�

Throughout March, safety advertising in restaurants and bars across Missouri will remind patrons that Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving. St. Pat’s themed posters, mirror clings and coasters serve as reminders of the importance of driving completely sober. Facebook fans can also pledge to drive sober, and try their luck at a photo caption contest to win gift cards.

As springtime greens up the landscape, and St. Patrick’s Day greens up the beer, the Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety reminds motorists to designate a driver or call a cab to avoid driving impaired. Law enforcement is on the lookout for impaired drivers with targeted efforts March 14-17. “Statewide, law enforcement made 583 DWI arrests during the impaired driving campaign in August and September of 2012,� says Leanna Depue, executive

There are no excuses for driving impaired. Drinking and driving is a lethal combination. If you cause a fatal crash while intoxicated, you can be charged with involuntary manslaughter, a felony resulting in up to seven years of prison time, a $5000 fine, or both. Don’t risk it.

To learn more, visit the Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety website at savemolives.com, or follow us on Facebook and Twitter at Save MO Lives.

State Sen. Brian Munzlinger, R-Williamstown, is encouraging residents of the 18th Senatorial District to fill out a nomination form for the Missouri State Fair’s “Missouri Woman in Agriculture�

Sen. Munzlinger said. “In addition, there is a second category for women between the ages of 18 and 30 to recognize a rising female star in Missouri agriculture. I always enjoy the fair and applaud the fair commission for their hard work in continuing to keep the fair new and exciting, even for those of us who have been attending for many years.�

Each winner will receive a plaque and the opportunity to designate a non-profit agriculture-related cause to receive a $1,000 donation in her name.

Blake Ordell has been named CulverStockton College’s sixth men’s soccer coach as announced

Ordell has spent the last two seasons as an assistant coach with the men and women’s programs at MacMurray College in Jacksonville, Ill. Prior to that, Ordell was an assistant coach for one season at Rochester College in Rochester, Mich.

“I have played soccer since I was 5 years old and always dreamed of playing and coaching at the next level,” said Ordell. “When I was on campus I immediately felt like a part of the Culver-Stockton family. For this reason I knew this was the perfect fit for my first head coaching

position.

“I am ecstatic about the opportunity to build the (Culver-Stockton) soccer program, as well as work in a great environment at a school that is growing daily and making a name for itself.”

Prior to coaching, Ordell was the director/owner of ‘Sc’Ordell Soccer Academy in Detroit, Mich. As the director of coaching/owner, Ordell produced and implemented practice sessions, generated clientele and created a budget for the facilities while organizing the finances of the company.

Ordell is a graduate of Westminster College in New Wilmington, Pa., where he played soccer and was a member of the President’s Athletic Conference (PAC) all-conference team all four years, including first team honors his junior and senior seasons. He was named team most valuable player his senior year and earned the PAC Freshman of the Year in his first season. While in college, Ordell studied in England and played soccer at the University of Central Lancashire. He helped lead the team to the tournament final 16 in the United Kingdom.

Ordell was also a member of various professional soccer teams, including the Detroit Waza Flo-Pro, Cincinnati Kings, Toronto Italia, and the Windsor Border Stars.

After a strong season with Detroit he was invited to play with the U.S. National Arena Team where he played against teams from Peru and Mexico.

LaGrange Municipal Court

By Myrna Hoteling

LaGrange Municipal Court for Feb. 28, 2013. All violations heard by Judge Fred L. Westhoff Clinton, Ames, Hull Ill.: Driving while in an intoxicated condition, Leland Brown, Hannibal: Failure to provide proof of insurance Mikala Day, Canton: Failure to provide proof of insurance first and second.

April Flower, Alexandria Mo.: Excessive Speed 17 miles over, bond forfeiture $69.50 Edward Hickman, Durham: Failure to register motor vehicle with the state.

Shamrocks, leprechauns and the blarney stone bring to mind, Ireland and St. Patrick,s day on March 17. On this day everyone can wear green and say Erin Go Bragh (Ireland Forever).

Curtis Farr and his brother Loren called on Paul Tascoe. Later Curtis visited Dorothy Nelson, Mike Cannon, Ronald Farr and Ray Jacobs at the Lewis County Nursing Home.

Steve McDowell,(my Brother) a former Marine and wishing to be thought of that way never the less was a ray of sunshine on a gloomy Saturday morning when he and his wife Linda called on Myrna Hoteling.

Alvin and Mary Vaughn joined Billy Joe and Janie Smith and Pat and Carl Babs at the 18 wheeler for breakfast on Monday.

A baby shower was held Sunday at the Lions Hall for Jackie Jett. Her mother, Teresa Gunsuals and Aunt Judy Erwin and

cousins Rachel and Charlotte were special guests coming from New Jersey.

Jackie was involved in an accident that totaled her automobile but she escaped serious injuries.

Like Blanch in the novel that relied on the kindness of others I was fortunate to have my cousin Ray Job come to my aid when I was having a long time problem with my computer. He solved my problem very quickly.

Sunday morning at the La Grange Methodist Church the Girl Scouts took part in the service.

Janie East Job passed away March 4 in her Kahoka, MO home. Janie grew up in La Grange and many friends and family remain.

Macy Bush, 8 years old, performed in a recital Sunday. Besides her immediate family her grandparents, David and Donna Stice and great grandmother Viola Tracy were in the audience. Viola a pianist herself was very pleased with Macy’s performance.

Blessing offers free Colorectal Cancer screening March 20 Colorectal cancer is one cancer you can prevent.

That’s why the American Cancer Society recommends screening for everyone age 50 and above, but most local physicians recommend screenings starting at age 40 due to increased number of diagnoses in younger patients.

The Blessing Cancer Center makes it easy to get screened. Free colorectal cancer screening kits will be distributed beginning from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Wednesday, March 20, at Blessing Hospital at 14th Street ramp entrance from Vermont Street. No registration is required. Quick and easy drive-through service means you don’t even have to get out of your car to get your kit.

Only one kit per person is allowed and a consent form must be signed by the person using the kit.

After completing the screening in the privacy of your home, drop off or mail back the kit (per instructions) to learn if you’re at risk for colorectal cancer.

The best method to detect colorectal cancer is a colonoscopy. The screening kit is a first step in maintaining your colon health and is not intended as a substitute for a colonoscopy. Visit the website at www.blessinghealthsystem.org/cancer for information about services offered at the Blessing Cancer Center.

The screening is part of a Regional Cancer Partnership of Illinois effort, with funding from the Illinois Department of Public Health. For more information about the screening, call 217-223-8400, ext. 7718.

Knox City News

By Nancy Shouse Mary Goodwin Nichols of Kahoka has been in a Davenport hospital for several weeks. She is finally home to a nursing home in her home town.

She needs our prayers and some get well cards. Her address is 200 Eastgate Court Apt. 2, Kahoka, Mo. 63445. I talked to her last night but she isn’t able to talk very long, she has a feeding tube and is able to walk with a walker now.

Please send her cards.

Nancy Shouse of Edina spent Friday p.m. with Jerry and Judy Shultz.

Jerry is still having trouble with his eye. While I was there, Olivia Strange, Chris and Renzo Truijello of LaPlata came and visited her grandparents. I had to hold that baby boy as all my babies are growing up. He is two months old and weighs about ten pounds. He already coos and smiles at you.

Got to visit with Betty Carol Goodwin of Knox City while in Edina today.

I have to make a trip to Memphis on Monday to take care of some cemetery business and we have a meeting that night.

Aaron Lewis of Canton came and spent a few days with his grandmother, LaVeta Wolter of Knox City.

With all this snow we have been having, school will not be getting out as early as they hoped this year. Snow I can take, but not the ice.

Robert Pape of Colony and Tina Pape of LaPlata were shopping in Quincy recently.

COMMUNITY NEWS IRS Seeks Volunteers for Taxpayer Advocacy Panel The Internal Revenue Service seeks civic-minded volunteers to serve on the Taxpayer Advocacy Panel (TAP), which is a federal advisory committee that listens to taxpayers, identifies key issues, and makes recommendations for improving IRS services.

The TAP provides a forum for taxpayers to raise concerns about IRS service and offer suggestions for improvement. The TAP reports annually to the Secretary of the Treasury, the IRS Commissioner and the National Taxpayer Advocate. The Office of the Taxpayer Advocate is an independent organization within the IRS and provides oversight of the TAP. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In trying to comply with an increasingly complex tax system, taxpayers may find they need different services than the IRS is currently providing,â&#x20AC;? said Nina E. Olson, National Taxpayer Advocate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The TAP is vital because it provides the IRS with the taxpayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; perspective as well as recommendations for improvement. This helps the IRS deliver the best possible service to assist taxpayers in meeting their tax obligations.â&#x20AC;?

The TAP includes members from all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. Each member is appointed to represent the interests of taxpayers in their geographic location as well as taxpayers as a whole.

For the first time, the TAP this year is seeking to include at least one additional member to represent international taxpayers.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Wreck Your Spring Break To the estimated 3.7 million college students getting ready for a well-earned spring break, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers urges you to play it safe while at the beach or around water. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wreck your spring break! Following these simple top ten tips could mean the difference between life and death.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 10: HELP (Heat Escape Lessening Position) can save your life in cold water. This position is where your knees are drawn up to your chest with your arms grasping them together helping retain body temperature until you are rescued. Wet clothing will not weigh you down in the water because water does not weigh more than water, so leave your clothes on.

Additional layers of clothing can actually help you stay afloat by trapping air.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 9: Diving could be a neck-breaking experience, so never dive into unknown waters.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 8: Any beach that has breaking waves could have the potential to develop rip currents near the shore that can pull even the strongest swimmers out to sea. If you get caught in one of these narrow rip currents, swim parallel to shore until the current stops pushing you out.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 7: Never overestimate your swimming abilities, especially in open waters.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 6: Swim only in designated areas.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 5: Always swim with a buddy; never swim alone.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 4: Swim and boat sober. Drinking alcohol doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t only make you do things that you wished you had not done by impairing your judgment.

People under the influence of alcohol have drown because they become disoriented underwater and think they are swimming to the water surface, but in reality they are swimming down.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 3: If you are boating, wear a life jacket even if you know how to swim and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect to enter the water. Falls overboard are one of the main reasons people drown because your first gasp (gasp reflex) after falling into the water can kill you because it only takes only 1 Tablespoon of water in your lungs to drown.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 2: Choose the right life jacket for you and wear it. The new inflatable life jackets are lightweight and the belt-pack style of inflatable life jacket will still allow you to get a great tan.

â&#x20AC;˘

Number 1 tip that could mean the difference between life and death during your spring break: Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let anyone talk you into anything that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to do. You have a brain; use it because peer pressure can kill you. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actions or perceptions influence you to cross your stupid line. If you feel uncomfortable leave the situation and stay alive.

You cannot remove all the risks, but putting safety first and following these simple tips you can enjoy your spring break and make lots of happy memories. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers hopes that you have a safe and enjoyable spring break because you deserve it and your family wants you to return home safely.
