CULVER-STOCKTON TO PRESENT TWO HONORARY DEGREES DURING COMMENCEMENT During the one hundred and fifty-seventh Commencement Ceremony, scheduled for May 18, 2013, Culver-Stockton College is recognizing two individuals for their decades of service and commitment to the College and its mission. Ron Leftwich, from Elsberry, Mo. and currently living in Houston, Texas, and Larry Gorrell of Quincy, Ill., are both receiving Doctor of Humane Letters Degree, Honoris Causa. Leftwich and Gorrell are longtime trustees for C-SC, and both have worked tirelessly to advance the mission of the College.

“Both Ron and Larry’s long tenure and many years outstanding service and active participation, at Culver-Stockton College and in their personal communities, make them very worthy of this honor,” said College President Richard Valentine. “Many have greatly benefited from their service, and we could think of no better individuals for this honor.”

Ron Leftwich graduated from Culver-Stockton in 1964 with his Bachelor of Science in business administration. Seven days after graduation, he began working at Shell Oil Company. He worked there for the duration of his career, retiring in 2002 as the company’s treasurer. Leftwich was elected to the Culver-Stockton board of trustees in 1990, and is currently the board chairman.

He serves on many committees for the board, including sitting as chair of the executive committee and the former chair of the finance committee. He also serves on the academic affairs committee. Leftwich is a dedicated serviceman, volunteering for more

than a decade with both Junior Achievement and the United Way. “I am beyond honored and completely humbled and surprised,” said Leftwich. “All I am trying to do is give back to the college that gave so much to me.”

Larry Gorrell graduated from Culver-Stockton in 1969 with a Bachelor of Science in business administration and finance.

Gorrell is first vice president of the Investment Office for Wells Fargo Advisors in Quincy, Ill. Gorrell was elected to the CulverStockton board of trustees in 1984 and is currently the board vice chairman. Gorrell sits on multiple committees for the board, including chairing the investment committee and the trusteeship committee. He also sits on the audit committee, the executive committee and the finance committee. Gorrell also served on the alumni board, acting as alumni board president for two years. Gorrell is very active within the Quincy community and has acted as treasurer for Quincy School District #172, as well as director of the Quincy Symphony Orchestra.

“I was surprised and honored to be inducted into such an illustrious set of individuals,” said Gorrell. “It is an honor to serve with all the people who have Culver-Stockton College as a top priority and who hold it close to their hearts.”

These are the first honorary degrees awarded by Culver-Stockton since 2011. Others to have been recognized

I encourage everyone to come by these informal sessions to discuss their views or receive assistance

with federal agencies,” said Graves.

The Mobile Office provides regular contact for communities and individuals who have a question or problem with federal government agencies.

Culver-Stockton to present two honorary degrees during Commencement (Continued from page 1A)

by Culver-Stockton with honorary degrees include radio journalist Paul Harvey, philanthropist Gladys Crown, poet Gwendolyn Brooks, former CulverStockton president Robert W. Brown and local businessman Don Gnuse.

The Culver-Stockton College Commencement Ceremony will take place on the lawn of the Quadrangle (adjacent to Henderson Hall). In case of inclement weather, the ceremony will be held in the Joe Charles Field House. Seating will begin at 7:30 a.m. on a first-come, firstserved basis. Tickets are not required for commencement. The speaker for this year’s ceremony is Dr. Lee Hammer, retiring professor of English. Additional information about the commencement ceremonies for graduates and guests is available at www.culver.edu/commencement.

MoDOT to Begin Mowing Roadsides MoDOT crews will begin mowing roadsides across Northeast Missouri and many places all over the state. The goal is to complete the mowing of all state roads to provide good visibility at intersections and a pleasant though not manicured appearance, weather and ground conditions permitting.

The mowing plan for the Northeast District: Drivers will see tractors and protective “follow” trucks mowing along busy freeways and expressways. Mowing operation will then move to rural two-lane roads in the 17-county Northeast area with tractors and protective “follow” trucks. State routes on highways and streets through cities, smaller towns and suburban areas also will be mowed. Tractors and “follow” trucks will be on the road Monday through Thursday and some Fridays each week throughout the summer.

In most areas, tractors will make one pass, making cuts of six feet to 15 feet wide, depend-

ing on terrain and obstructions.

Between mowing cycles, motorists who see grass and weeds blocking visibility at road or street intersections along state roads should call MoDOT, and workers will respond and cut away the visual obstruction.

For drivers who come up behind a mowing operation: Be alert for trucks and tractors with lights flashing and moving slowly, 2 mph to 5 mph. Slow down and focus on the road ahead of you.

Avoid talking on a cell phone or other distractions. Be prepared to stop or drive very slowly behind a “follow” truck, especially approaching a hill or curve on a two-lane road. Pass when you can see far enough past the “follow” truck to avoid meeting oncoming traffic. Pass the tractor when it is safe.

For more information contact MoDOT’s Customer Service Center toll-free at 1-888-ASK MoDOT (275-6636) or online at www.modot.mo.gov/northeast.

Lewistown Crp Sign-Up Bible School Starts Soon A summer kids’ event called Kingdom Rock VBS will be hosted at First Baptist Church of Lewistown from June 3 to 7.

At Kingdom Rock VBS, kids participate in memorable Bible-learning activities, sing catchy songs, play teamwork-building games, make and dig into yummy treats, experience epic Bible adventures, collect Bible Memory Buddies to remind them to stand strong, and test out Sciency-Fun Gizmos they’ll take home and play with all summer long. Plus, kids will learn to look for evidence of God all around them through something

called God Sightings.

Kingdom Rock VBS is for kids from 5 to 12, which is grades K-6t and will run from 6 to 9 p.m each day.

For more information, call (573) 215-2403.

Parents can pre-register children at https:// www.groupvbspro.com/ vbs/ez/fbclewistown

USDA will conduct a four-week general signup for the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), beginning May 20 and ending on June 14. CRP protects the nation’s natural resources through voluntary participation, while providing significant economic and environmental benefits to rural communities across the United States.

Currently, about 27 million acres are enrolled in CRP. Producers that are accepted in the program can receive cost-share assistance to plant long-

term, resource-conserving covers and receive an annual rental payment for the length of the contract which is 10-15 years.

Contracts on 3.3 million acres of CRP are set to expire on Sept. 30, 2013.

Producers with expiring contracts or producers with environmentally sensitive land are encouraged to evaluate their options under CRP. For more information on CRP and other FSA programs, contact the Lewis County Service in Monticello (573)767-5274.

National Missing Children’s Day Every year on May 25, Missourians are asked to remember the children who stare back from the posters of the missing.

These are the faces of children who have been stolen from their families, run away from their families, or have been abandoned by their families.

Regardless of the reason, these missing youth are in danger every day. It is the goal of National Missing Children’s Day to bring public attention to the growing problem of missing children.

President Ronald Reagan first proclaimed National Missing Children’s Day on May 25, 1983. It now serves as an annual reminder to Missouri and the nation that everyone can play a part in bringing a missing child home, and in preventing the occurrence of future missing children. All Missouri citizens are encouraged to drive with their headlights on throughout the day on May 25, to “light the way home” for our missing youth. The wearing of a white ribbon also symbolizes the continued fight to return children safely

home.

In 2012, 5,561 children were reported missing to Missouri law enforcement agencies. These missing reports included runaways, family abductions, and non-family abductions. At the end of 2012, 91 of these children were still missing. Thus far in 2013, there have been 1,966 children reported missing, 1,787 of which have been located.

The Missouri Missing Persons Clearinghouse reminds all parents and guardians to talk to children about child safety issues as a pro-active approach to curbing child abduction. In the same manner as reminding children to look both ways before crossing the street, children should be reminded often to follow these safety rules: CHECK FIRST: Check first with a trusted adult before going anywhere or accepting anything from anyone.

TAKE A BUDDY: Never go alone; always take a friend. If a child MUST go somewhere alone, remind them to call before leaving, stay on a

protected path, and check in upon arrival.

SAY NO: Know that it is OK to say, “NO!” Teach children to tell a trusted adult if something makes them scared or uncomfortable.

BE SAFE: Remind children they always have the right to stay safe.

Parents and guardians should have an emergency child identification kit. To create a child identification kit at home, simply place a quality photograph, such as a school picture, in a file with up-to-date information outlining the child’s height, weight, date of birth, hair color, eye color, guardian information, address, and distinguishing features such as scars, moles, glasses, braces, etc. Since children grow quickly and change a lot, the information should be updated at least once a year. The Patrol’s Missing Persons Clearinghouse has a Child ID System, which can be taken to schools, health and safety fairs, and civic meetings upon request to make ree, wallet-sized child ID cards for parents.

PRESS-NEWS JOURNAL

Two critical tools in the fight against missing children are the Amber Alert Program and the Missouri Endangered Persons Advisory. The mission of the Amber Alert Program is to develop and coordinate the efforts of law enforcement, the media, and transportation in order to increase public participation in safely recovering abducted children through targeted education, increased communication, and effective sharing of resources. In 2012, two statewide Amber Alerts were issued for six missing children, and all six of those children were recovered safely.

The Missouri Endangered Persons Advisory was established in 2007, to protect missing persons who might not fall under the strict criteria established by the Amber Alert Plan.

For more information on child safety and Amber Alerts, or if you would like a child ID presentation at your local event, please contact the Missing Persons Clearinghouse at (573) 526-6178, or online at www.mshp.dps.mo.gov.

EDITORIAL Troop B Operation Care Captain James E. Wilt, commanding officer of Troop B, Macon, announces upcoming plans for Troop B officers to participate in Operation C.A.R.E. and 20-Mile Trooper enforcement programs over the 2013 Memorial Day weekend.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol will be participating in Operation C.A.R.E. (Combined Accident Reduction Effort) during the long holiday weekend. This means every available officer will be on the road enforcing traffic laws and assisting motorists. Operation C.A.R.E. will begin at 12:01 a.m., Friday, May 24, and will end at midnight, Monday, May 27, 2013.

Additionally, Troop B officers will be conducting a 20-Mile Trooper Project on U.S. Highways 36, 63, and 61 in the Troop B area on May 24, 2013 and

May 27, 2013. During this enforcement program, troopers will be assigned to 20-mile intervals in an effort to step up traffic enforcement with a goal of reducing traffic crashes over the holiday weekend.

“Memorial Day is the first long holiday weekend of the year and many people will be traveling on Missouri roadways,” stated Captain Wilt. “I would like to urge all motorists to make sure safe driving is a part of your plans. Make sure everyone is wearing a seat belt, and never drink and drive.”

The Patrol encourages motorists and watercraft operators to protect themselves by making sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint and everyone in the vessel is wearing an approved life jacket.

The LaGrange High School is featured on this early 1900s postcard loaned by Barbara Warning Bright and sent to her grandmother Vera Mae Gnuse Warning. The last high school class from LaGrange graduated in 1970.

MoDOT Transportation Improvement Program Recently, the Missouri Department of Transportation released its draft Statewide Transportation Improvement Program, which lists all transportation projects planned by state and regional planning agencies for a fiveyear period.

“In Northeast Missouri, the project listing is significantly different than it was just four years ago,” said MoDOT NE Assistant District Engineer Kevin James. “With funding nearly half of what it was then, we have shifted to maintaining our existing highway and bridge system the best we can with the resources we have available,” he said.

The good news is there are several miles of major and minor highways that will receive resurfacing.”We are creating and paving shoulders on some projects, and there are more than two dozen bridge repair or replacement projects,” James explained. “The bad news,

though, is there just isn’t enough funding to support highway expansion and major upgrades, including a replacement bridge on US 54 over the Mississippi River at Louisiana, or the Hannibal Expressway,” he added.

The public is invited to comment on the draft fiveyear program between May 1 and May 31 at http://on.mo.gov/12jyVc2.

A hard copy of the document is available at both the Hannibal District Office and the Macon Regional Office, and comments can also be made by calling customer service at 1-888-275-6636.

Following the public review period, the comments will be presented to the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission. The Commission will review the comments and the final transportation program before considering it for approval at its July 10 meeting in Rolla.

May is Motorcycle Awareness Month Motorcyclists and motorists are encouraged to safely “share the road” this May in observation of Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month. All motorists are reminded to watch for motorcycles and to be extra alert to help keep motorcyclists safe, while motorcyclists are reminded to make themselves visible to other motorists. There were 276 motorcyclists killed from 2010-2012.

“We’re seeing more and more motorcycles on the highways,” said Leanna Depue, chair of the Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety’s executive committee. “Drivers of all vehicles need to be extra attentive. A motorcycle is one of the smallest vehicles on our roads, often hidden in a vehicle’s blind spot.

Everyone needs to watch for motorcycles.”

Very often, drivers of cars and trucks don’t see motorcycles until the last

IMAGES OF YESTERYEAR

second. And sometimes not at all. Motorcycle operators have to anticipate the moves of other drivers and be extra cautious of road conditions and debris.

“Motorcyclists have responsibilities, too,” Depue says. “They should follow the rules of the road, be alert to other drivers, never ride while impaired or distracted, and always wear a Department of Transportation-compliant helmet and other protective gear.”

Motorcycle experts recommend motorcyclists also complete some type of training before getting out on the road. There are 29 training locations in Missouri. You can find the one nearest you at www. mmsp.org.

Drew Smith recognized

Drew Smith age 7, was recently recognized for his volunteer efforts at the Durham Community Center and Ball Park.

Drew of Cecil recently meeting

Smith, seven year old son and Mary Ann Smith was recognized at the annual of the Durham Commu-

nity Center and Ball Park as being the youngest volunteer at the center. Drew attends games and other events and helps by picking up to

keep the grounds looking good. He has done this since he was 5 years old.

Volunteers are always needed at the Community Center and as can be seen in the case of Drew, it doesn’t matter if they are young or old, there is a job for everyone.

The Durham Community Center & Ball Park are celebrating their 50th anniversary this year with special events planned including the 50th annual fish fry and carnival which will take place on June 22.

The Community Center was established in 1963 after the Durham School was destroyed in a fire. A group of people in the area met together, donated money and bought the grounds. Throughout the years there have been many changes including the addition of one of the best ball parks in Lewis County.

This has all been done with a lot of hard work from volunteers, as well as many fund raisers, donations and help from businesses in the area.

Farm Service Agency ACRE Program Enrollment Ends June 3 Lewis County Executive Director John Wheeler for USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) reminds producers that June 3, 2013, is the final day to enroll in the Average Crop Revenue Protection (ACRE) program for the 2013 crop year. ACRE is a revenue-based safety net, as opposed to the price-based safety net provided by counter-cyclical payments through the Direct and CounterCyclical Program (DCP).

The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 extended both the ACRE and DCP programs for the 2013 crop year. The extension allows producers to choose to enroll either program for 2013. The program provisions are unchanged from 2012, except that eligible producers who were enrolled in ACRE in 2012 may elect to enroll in DCP in 2013 or may re-enroll in ACRE in 2013. Likewise, producers who were enrolled in DCP

may opt for ACRE enrollment.

To enroll in ACRE, producers should contact Lewis County FSA office at (573) 767-5274 to schedule an appointment by the June 3rd deadline. The deadline to enroll in DCP is August 2.

For more information on the ACRE and DCP programs, visit the Lewis County Office or www.fsa. usda.gov.

Have A Safe Memorial Day! The first summer holiday weekend will soon be here! Memorial Day weekend is an opportunity for Missourians to enjoy the many recreational possibilities in this great state. Whether you will be visiting family, going to one of Missouri’s lakes, or enjoying other travel destinations, the Missouri State Highway Patrol urges everyone to think about safety when making plans for the upcoming holiday weekend. Holidays should be enjoyed, but enjoyed responsibly. Be aware of construction along your route, pay attention while you are driving, and buckle up. If alcohol is part of your holiday, make sure driving a vehicle or a vessel is not.

The Patrol will be participating in Operation C.A.R.E. (Combined Accident Reduction Effort) during the long holiday weekend. This means every available officer will be on the road enforcing traffic laws and assisting motorists. In addition, the Patrol will assign troopers to 20-mile intervals along Interstates 35, 44, 55, and 70, and U.S. Highways 60 and 63 on May 24, 2013 and May 27, 2013. Troopers taking part in the 20-Mile Trooper enforcement project will be alert for all traffic offenses, and be especially vigilant to aggressive driving violations.

Motorists or boaters in need of assistance or who want to report a crime should use the Highway Patrol's Emergency Assistance number 1-800-525-5555 or *55 on a cellular phone. For road condition reports, travelers can visit our web site at www.mshp.dps.mo.gov and click on the Road Condition icon to view road construction areas throughout the state or call 1-888-275-

6636.

Over the 2012 Memorial Day holiday weekend, nine people died and 355 were injured in 944 traffic crashes. Last year, 184 persons were arrested for DWI. This year's fatality counting period for the holiday weekend begins at 6 p.m., Friday, May 24, and ends at 11:59 p.m., Monday, May 27, 2013. Troopers will focus their attention on seat belt use, use of child safety seats, intoxicated drivers, and speed violations.

Motorists are encouraged to be safe and courteous drivers. Speed, inattention, and impaired driving are leading causes of traffic crashes.

Please do your part. Obey all traffic laws and buckle up. The Memorial Day weekend is also an unofficial start to the boating season. During the 2012 Memorial Day weekend, there were eight boating accidents with eight injuries and zero fatalities. No one drowned over the holiday weekend. Officers arrested 38 people for boating while intoxicated.

Boating is a great pastime and troopers want everyone to enjoy themselves. Please be courteous to others on the water, wear a lifejacket, and obey the law regarding safe operation of a vessel and no wake zones. Never operate a boat while intoxicated.

"I encourage every driver—of a vehicle or a vessel—to make safety part of their three-day weekend plans," said Colonel Ron Replogle, superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol. "Please, DON’T drink and drive. We want all of you to have a safe, enjoyable holiday weekend.”

Emily Sly graduated from Columbia College, Columbia, Mo. on May 11. She earned her Bachelor's of Science degree in Business Administration with majors in Marketing and Accounting.

Her honors include Cum Laude, Sigma Beta Delta, Lambda Pi Eta, and ELI (Emerging Leaders Institute).

After graduation Emily will be employed with Columbia College as an Administrative Assistant with Prospective Students at the Online Campus. Emily is the daughter of Richard and Tricia Sly of Ewing, Mo.

Lions Club Eyewear Service Offered The new Canton Lions Club is offering a free service to low income families. Assistance for eyeglasses is available to children 18 years or younger.

Applications and information can be obtained from the Canton R-V school or contact Canton Lions Club president, Will Dickerson at (573) 288-0285.

Those RSVP volunteers who were honored from Lewis County who have five years of volunteer service include: Jean Calvert, Joe Clark, Mary Ellen Clark, Nancy Glisan, Donna Pierce, Carol Ragar and Charlie Walters.

“It is always an honor to give special attention to our senior adults volunteers who have the fortitude to continue with volunteer activities for multiple years,” said Stacey Nicholas, RSVP Direc-

tor. “The extreme dedication that they demonstrate speaks highly of the generation and makes a vital impact on their communities.”

Partially funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service, RSVP enriches the lives of senior adults through significant community volunteer service and personal development. RSVP encourages seniors to volunteer their talents, experiences, skills, and hobbies to community not-for-profit agencies for the betterment of those agencies and the community as a whole.

We would like to thank: The Lewis Co. Nursing Home for the care our mother was given during her stay. Arnoldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Funeral Home for the services provided. The ladies from Wyaconda Baptist Church for the wonderful meal that was provided after her funeral. All of the ht people who sent flowers, called, brought food and cards during our motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s illness and death.

Foster Grandparent Program Advisory Council The Foster Grandparent Program Advisory Council (FGPAC) met April 24, 2013 in the Heartland Resources, Inc. Conference Room. Six council members and Mary Miller, FGP Executive Director, were present. One council member was absent.

Emma Sparks, Chair, presided at the meeting.

Information was given on Sequestration, the budget, a fixed grant, annual evaluation due dates, and attendance at events, including the Senior Health Fair in Hannibal.

The April foster grandparent in-services and mayorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roundtable and recognition were held on the 16 in Hannibal and the 23 in Ewing. At the latter event, Linda Lueckenhoff, the Ewing Mayor, joined the 24 foster grandparents, Mary Miller and Linda Schmitz.

After each person had introduced themselves, Mrs. Lueckenhoff gave some information on city government and answered questions.Appreciation was expressed for her interest and support in the foster grandparent program.

One of the main topics of the roundtable was recycling.

People can recycle by bringing Number 1 and 2 plastic bottles, milk jugs and lotion bottles to the Lewis County senior centers or to the Heartland Resources, Inc. office.

For this opportunity, the FGP is partnering with Wider Opportunities. Another local recycling option is to take certain items to cargo trailers that are located at both HHS and HES. This opportunity is available due to a grant received by the Lewis County Unit of the Missouri Retired Teachers Association & Public School Personnel.

May 5-10 is Senior CORPS Week. On May 8, foster grandparents and several others went to Jefferson City to take part in various activities. These included the governor signing a proclamation honoring foster grandparents.

Ewing Park Days will be August 10 and 11. The FGPAC plans to sponsor an Ice Cream and Cake Social on August 10.

Iain Bradbury to step down as Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Volleyball Coach Culver-Stockton College has announced that Iain Bradbury will step down as the head menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball coach effective at the end of the month.

Bradbury, who was hired as the inaugural head menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball coach July 23, 2012, to start recruiting and building the program toward its first season of competition this upcoming school year, cited personal and family reasons for his departure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am stepping down as head coach for personal and family reasons and the decision was extremely difficult because of the support of community members, faculty, staff and students at C-SC,â&#x20AC;? said Bradbury. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really have a family in Canton that is difficult for me to leave. I have enjoyed my time at C-SC and will continue to cheer on the Wildcats in their inaugural season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am proud of the work that we have all done to bring these amazing students together for this program - this is a great team already. This program is in great shape and has a very healthy and strong foundation to continue on its journey of success in NAIA volleyball.â&#x20AC;?

Bradbury has spent the last nine months recruiting student-athletes to form the inaugural menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball team at Culver-Stockton, inking 15 studentathletes to date. The Wildcats are expect-

ed to take the court in January 2014 for its first season of competition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am incredibly grateful for the support of (Athletic Director) Greg McVey, (President) Richard Valentine and (Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Volleyball Coach) Caren Kemner throughout my time here at CulverStockton College,â&#x20AC;? said Bradbury. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was an incredibly difficult decision to leave C-SC and I know that this menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball program is going to continue to grow with excitement and enthusiasm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The recruiting class coming in is incredibly talented and will be great ambassadors to the community and excellent representations of Culver-Stockton College. I cannot thank Caren, President Valentine and Greg enough for the work theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done and their support in my decision to step down.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We thank Iain for his contributions to Culver-Stockton since he was hired last July, especially the passion, dedication and energy he brought to the Hill every single day,â&#x20AC;? said C-SC Athletic Director Greg McVey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iain has worked hard to transition our menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball program from an idea on paper to actual studentathletes that will help us compete in our first season in January.â&#x20AC;?

The school has already begun a search for Bradburyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s replacement and hopes to have a successor in place soon.

Two of the nation’s top youth archery champions are members of 4-H clubs in northeastern Missouri. Cassie Hancock, 13, and Chase Wilson, 17, took high honors in a recent Las Vegas competition. Both say participation in 4-H helped them gain the skills needed to put them on target for success.

plans to major in chemical engineering.

Wilson set a goal of competing on the Missouri 4-H team at the 4-H National Shooting Sports Invitational. He accomplished this in 2010, competing on the state compound archery team with a trip to Kerrville, Texas, where the archery team helped the Missouri team win first overall. In 2012 he learned a new discipline and competed on the Missouri recurve archery team in Grand Island, Neb. His mother, Kim Jennings-Wilson, a 1988 graduate of MU’s College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, had participated in the now-defunct Walnut Grove 4-H Club in Lewis County for about 10 years when she was a child.

She feels that her son’s participation in 4-H helped him develop self-discipline and goal-setting skills that will aid him in college and life. As a 4-H officer and member of Future Business Leaders of America, he gained confidence in public speaking and had the opportunity to travel in and out of the state. “4-H teaches them to do the dirty work in order to do the fun things. So it’s like real life.

You have to do the work in order to play,” his mother said.

Cassie Hancock, a 13-year-old member of the Marion County Silver Spurs 4-H Club, recently took fourth place in the youth division of the World Archery Tournament in Las Vegas. Hancock is one of nearly 2,000 archery participants in the state’s 4-H program, according to University of Missouri Extension 4-H specialist Gerry Snapp.

Hancock took top honors in her division at the Missouri Bowhunters Association State Indoor Championship in Linn recently and broke the state record she set the previous year. She also won against 33 female competitors in her age division in the National Field Archery Association National Indoor Championship in Louisville, Ky., in early March.

This is the second-largest in the U.S., second GRGURICH AUTO BODY, INC. shoot only to the Las Vegas shoot that she took honors in ear(573) 288-2115 lier.

Chase Wilson, 17-year-old Oyster Prairie 4-H member, placed fifth in the World Archery Tournament in Las Vegas.

He has been a Lewis County 4-H member for nine years and has been shooting competitively for eight years. “It’s the biggest thing in my life,” he said. “Once you find out about it, you get hooked on it.”

He, too, takes a disciplined approach to the sport. “It’s a challenge. It’s just like any other sport,” he said. “You have to put in the time and work.”

Indoor shooting competitions require that 30 arrows be shot in an intense round. This is where practice and stamina pay off. “You have to have muscle memory to shoot over and over again,” he said.

Wilson is expected to graduate as valedictorian of his senior class this year at Highland High School. He has been accepted at the University of Missouri and

NURSERY RHYME WEEK

The two pre-school classes at the Cougar Den Daycare near Ewing celebrated “Nursery Rhyme” Week. The students learned various Nursery Rhymes, acted them out, and did several fun activities with each one during the week. The students were asked to dress up like their favorite Nursery Rhyme character. They had a lot of fun learning Nursery Rhymes.

Business faculty at CulverStockton College present at International Business Conference Three Culver-Stockton business faculty presented at the Annual Conference for the International Assembly for Collegiate Business Education (IACBE). Dr. Kim Gaither, professor finance and chair of the Business Division, Dr. James Cosgrove, professor of business, and Eric Larson, lecturer in business, co-presented at the conference, held April 17-19 in Orlando, Fla. The presentation proERIC LARSON vided the audience with an overview of the College and its history in changing to a new calendar and curriculum. The three professors spoke about what they had learned with C-SC’s transition to the 12/3 calendar, now five years into its implementation. The presentation was titled “Innovations in Education,” and it was the second time CulverStockton has made this presentation to during the IACBE conference. Last year, Dr. Susan Deege and Dr. Cosgrove presented JAMES COSGROVE it, and C-SC was asked to come back this year to do it again. Gaither, Cosgrove and Larson also attended and became part of a panel on short-term study abroad experiences while at the conference.

IACBE is the accrediting body for smaller, teachingbased programs in the business-field. In addition to presenting, Culver-Stockton College was also reaffirmed by the IACBE review team during the conference.

The IACBE was founded in 1997 in response to expressed needs of higher education personnel who wanted an accreditation process that was missiondriven and outcomesbased.

Proudly Presenting the Graduates of 2013 Two recent Culver-Stockton graduates recognized at state-level for their efforts in the classroom Two Culver-Stockton College alumni and current Canton R-V School District teachers have been recognized for their exceptional work in the classroom. Mary Bowman ‘11, fifth and sixth grade science teacher, and Josh Heitman ‘12, tenthtwelfth grade social studies teacher, were recently recognized as Outstanding Beginning Teachers by The Missouri Association for Colleges of Teacher Education (MACTE).

At the spring conference of MACTE, held April 25 in Columbia, Mo., a total of 64 outstanding teachers were recognized for their excellence in serving children during their first two years of service in school districts across Missouri. Thirtyseven of Missouri’s private and public institutions of higher education, offering state and nationally recognized programs, honored these professionals who completed education programs at their respective institutions. Award recipients

were selected based on evaluations of outstanding graduates completed by their college or university, and recommendations from the school district which deemed the teacher as highly effective in their first two years in the classroom.

Present at the awards ceremony was Dr. Tim Wall, MACTE president along with several other members of the MACTE board, and Dr. Gale (Hap) Hairston, director of educator preparation at the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Each recipient was awarded an engraved plaque to display in their classroom. MACTE recognizes the contribution of these fine teachers, as well as all of our excellent, highly qualified teachers throughout Missouri who serve and educate our students. Bowman and Heitman were accompanied by CulverStockton College education faculty, Dr. Terry Sherer and Barb Tripp.

Canton Teachers and Culver-Stockton Alumni were recognized recently for their work as teachers.

Pictured are Mary Bowman (left, center) and Josh Heitman (above, center).

We’re proud of you Class of 2013 Good wishes and much success

We hope the goals you strive for are achieved.

Proudly Presenting the Graduates of 2013 Quotes From Memorable Graduation Speeches Graduation speeches are always a part of the ceremony, some of the bigger universities have well-known speakers who speak the truth to the young graduates and inspire them to do big things. Here are a few quotes from some of the more memorable speeches obtained from several internet sources, Aaron Sorkin to Syracuse University in May 2012 “Make no mistake about it, you are dumb. You’re a group of incredibly, well-educated dumb people. I was there. We all were there. You’re barely functional. There are some screw-ups headed your way. I wish I could tell you that there was a trick to avoiding the screw-ups, but the screw-ups, they’re a-coming for ya. It’s a combination of life being unpredictable, and you being super dumb.”

Conan O’Brien to his alma mater Harvard University in May 2000 “As you leave these gates and re-enter society, one thing is certain. Everyone out there is going to hate you.

Never tell anyone in a roadside diner that you went to Harvard. In those situations, the correct response to, ‘Where did you go to school?’ is ‘School? I never had much in the way of book learnin’ and such.’ And then get in your BMW and get the hell out of there.”

Stephen Colbert to his alma mater Northwestern University in June 2011 “In 1986, our commencement speaker was George Schultz, secretary of state, fourth in line to the president.

You get me—basic cable’s second most popular fake newsman. At this rate, the class of 2021 will be addressed by a zoo parrot in a mortar-board that has been trained to say “congratulations.”

J. K. Rowling to Harvard University in June 2008 “I was convinced that the only thing I wanted to do, ever, was to write novels. However, my parents, both of whom came from impoverished backgrounds and neither of whom had been to college, took the view that my overactive imagination was an amusing personal quirk that would never pay a mortgage or secure a pension. I know that the irony strikes with the force of a cartoon anvil, now.”

Bono to the University of Pennsylvania in May 2004 “I love America because America is not just a country, it’s an idea. You see my country, Ireland, is a great country, but it’s not an idea. America is an idea, but it’s an idea that brings with it some baggage, like power brings responsibility. It’s an idea that brings with it equality, but

equality, even though it’s the highest calling, is the hardest to reach. The idea that anything is possible, that’s one of the reasons why I’m a fan of America. It’s like ‘Hey, look there’s the moon up there, let’s take a walk on it, bring back a piece of it.’ That’s the kind of America that I’m a fan of.”

Bill Gates to Harvard in 2007 “I’ve been waiting more than 30 years to say this: ‘Dad, I always told you I’d come back and get my degree.’

I want to thank Harvard for this honor. I’ll be changing my job next year and it will be nice to finally have a college degree on my resume!”

Steve Jobs to Stanford in 2005 “Death is very likely the single best invention of life.

It’s life’s change agent; it clears out the old to make way for the new…. Your time is limited so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice, heart and intuition.”

May you know His blessings as you graduate this May And place your future in God’s hands so you’ll never go astray.

Congratulations to Canton R-V Highland High Culver-Stockton and all area Graduates Wishing you a bright Future!
