AMISH COMMUNITY WELCOMES TWO LEAP YEAR BABIES BY DAN STEINBECK Editor dan@lewispnj.com
Two separate Amish families welcomed a new baby into their family on Leap Year Day, Feb. 29. An Amish man, who himself declined to be publicly identified, said Anna Borntreger was born to Amos and Esther Borntreger at the Borntreger home north of Canton on Route 81. Pete, Miller Junior was born to Pete and Kathern Miller the same day. The two couples live about three miles from each other. The man said he read an Ohio newspaper account of 11 Amish couples giving birth on Nov. 11, 2011, or numerically known as 11-11-11. He said Amish don’t always celebrate birthday anniversaries, but that differs among the Amish communities. According to an internet source, every four years a day is added to keep the calendar synchronized with the astronomical year. The 365 days of non-leap years is six hours less than a solar year, which is the amount of time it takes the earth to make one orbit around the sun.
CANTON MAN INVOLVED IN QUINCY ACCIDENT A Canton man was one of two men who had apparent minor injuries in a two-car accident in Quincy Wednesday afternoon, Feb. 29. Nathaniel Logsdon, 26, of Canton and Jeremy Holt, 20 of Payson, Ill., were each taken to Blessing Hospital after the accident. Both were treated and released. Quincy Police said Logsdon was driving a full-sized 1995 Chevrolet van, and struck the rear of Holt’s 2008 Ford pick-up truck at about 10th and Broadway. Logsdon was cited for reckless driving.

Highland High School was presented a bronze banner for their seat belt usage of 91.87 percent and a plaque from the Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety for their participation in the program. Lewis County Sheriff David Parrish and Tana Akright, MoDot Battle of the Belt coordinator, presented the honors Feb. 21. The Battle of the Belt is a seat belt competition between Missouri high school students. SADD members (Students Against Destructive Decisions) checked student drivers for seat belt usage and then provided information to the student body about seat belt usage. Highland High School has won the award for three consecutive years.
Filing Has Started For Public Offices BY DAN STEINBECK Editor dan@lewispnj.com
Filing opened for public offices on the county, state, and federal level, although the latter is still in limbo. The following had filed by Monday, March 5 for County offices: Jesse Roberts, Southern Commissioner; John Campen, Northern Commissioner; Larry Arnold, Coroner; Craig Myers, Assessor; David Parrish, Sheriff; all Democrat incumbents; Brett Bozarth, Public Administrator, the Democrat appointed last year to fill Bill Murphy’s post when Murphy retired; and Carson W. Lay, Surveyor, a Republican. Russell Steele, the incumbent Democrat Second Judicial Circuit Judge, has also filed for reelection. Redistricting has changed the borders – and some district numbers. For example, Craig Red-
mon, the incumbent Republican First District State Representative has filed for the new Fourth District, which encompasses more of Adair County and none of Marion County. Likewise, current U.S. Representative, Ninth Congressional District Republican Blaine Luetkemeyer (which now includes Lewis County), has filed for the Third Congressional district, which doesn’t include Lewis County. Instead, the new Sixth District, which covers most of the top third of the state –including Lewis County -, has two people who have filed, Kyle Yarber of Gladstone and Ted Rights of Hamilton. Statewide, there are five candidates who have filed for each U.S. Senator, Governor, and Secretary of State; 11 have filed for Lt. Governor; three have filed for Attorney General; and two have filed for State Treasurer.
Future of former Saturday Store pending BY DAN STEINBECK Editor dan@lewispnj.com
About two dozen Canton community members met March 1 to discuss the fate of the building at Fourth and Lewis recently known as “The Saturday Store.” Joe Clark, head of the Canton Community Betterment Group said each attendee was to fill out a commitment form to the extent they would be willing to financially support the building, if it is used as a community center, as some have suggested. Clark estimates for the first year it would cost a minimum of $6,500 for insurance, utilities, and some on hand for maintenance and repairs. The commitment forms will be evaluated tonight (Thursday, March 8) at
a regular meeting of the CCBG. If it becomes a community center, it could serve as a meeting place for a number of not-for-profit groups, such as service clubs and the Canton Area Arts Council. It could possibly be rented for receptions too. “If we don’t get the right type of support, we will continue with the on-line auction scheduled for next month. We can’t afford to keep it,” Clark said. In recent months Former Culver-Stockton President Bill and Lynn Fox donated the building to the Betterment Group. Potential donors can contact Clark or Kelli Hinton at Heartland Bank. To see the property listed on the auction site go to ucwallingford.com.
TWO RESIGN FROM C-1 SCHOOL BOARD FOR SIMILAR REASONS BY DAN STEINBECK Editor dan@lewispnj.com
Two members of the Lewis County C-1 School Board have resigned, citing similar reasons. The two are long time board member Robert Reed Miller, and Harry Scifres, elected last year. They re-
signed in a special C-1 board meeting last week. Miller is still a candidate for re-election in April. In separate letters, both Miller and Scifres admit to voting on extra duty contracts for the 2011-12 school year that included family members employed by the district. For Miller, it was his wife, and for Scifres, it was
his son. Both letters cite “the Missouri Constitution and related court cases” that say if a board member votes in favor of appointing a relative to the fourth degree, the board member should resign and forfeit his seat. Both men said they did not intend to violate the law and apologized to the fellow board members
and to the district. Both men pledge to continue to be supportive of activities in the school district. In a letter sent to C-1 staff the morning after the meeting, Superintendent Jackie Ebeling said “the administrative team knew nothing about the situation.”

FARR
A Lewistown man was arrested March 1 for failure to register as a sex offender. Dana M. Dean, 38, of Lewistown, was arrested on the charge, a class D felony. In January, the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office, pursuant to Missouri law, conducted physical inspections of approximately 40 sex offenders throughout Lewis County. During this time, Dean is alleged to have been residing in Quincy, Ill., a violation of the offender requirements. Dean remains in the Lewis County Jail in lieu of a $10,000 bond. A LaGrange man arrested in a recent drug bust. The Lewis County Sheriff’s Office arrested Bradley L. Farr, 24, of rural LaGrange for possession of a controlled sub-
stance. A deputy was called March 3 to investigate suspicious activity on Violet Street, and found Farr in possession of hydrocodone pills and marijuana. The charge is a class C felony. He is lodged in the Lewis County Jail in lieu of a $10,000 bond. A Ewing man was charged with felony driving while intoxicated. The Lewis County Sheriff’s Office arrested James A. Sayler, 49, of Ewing for felony driving while intoxicated March 2. According to a release from the Sheriff’s Office, Sayler has five prior Missouri DWI convictions. He was driving without a license near Lewistown when stopped by a deputy. Sayler remains in the Lewis County Jail in lieu of a $10,000 bond.
Lewis Co. Sheriff’s Office to join law enforcement agencies state wide on traffic safety Sheriff David Parrish announced Feb. 28 that the Lewis Co. Sheriff’s Office will be joining law enforcement agencies state wide in two upcoming traffic safety campaigns. The first campaign will be taking place Mar. 16-18 and is aimed at removing drunk and impaired drivers from Missouri’s roads. Deputies from the Lewis Co. Sheriff’s Office will be working overtime enforcing Missouri’s traffic laws and will be focusing on alcohol related driving offenses as well as hazardous moving violations. Hundreds of motorists a year lose their lives in alcohol related crashes on Missouri’s roadways. Sheriff Parrish reminds motorists that those driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol will be arrested if traveling in Lewis Co. The second campaign will run from Mar. 15-31. During this campaign, deputies will be patrolling the roads in Lewis County in an effort to increase safety belt usage in young drivers. Deputies will be working overtime to enforce Missouri’s traffic laws especially those laws requiring motorists to buckle up. Emphasis will be in the various school zones throughout Lewis Co. Hundreds of lives are lost each year on Missouri roadways and many of these could have been prevented if seat belts had been worn as required by law. Both of these overtime campaigns are being conducted as a result of grants received by the Lewis Co. Sheriff’s Office from the Missouri Department of Transportation and the Missouri Safety Center.
Saturday accident causes moderate injuries On Mar. 3, on Route B at the US 61 overpass, a 2009 Chevrolet heading westbound driven by Donna Hendrian, 30, of Quincy, Ill., was struck by a northbound 2010 Honda driven by Richard Decoster, 67, of Evanston, Ill., while attempting to cross Route B. The Chevrolet received extensive damage while the Honda sustained only moderate damage. Hendrian was taken by Lewis Co. Ambulance to Blessing Memorial Hospital, Quincy, with apparently moderate injuries. Both drivers were wearing their seatbelts.

Add this valuable protection before its too late. Flooding can happen almost anywhere, any time. It might be the result of days of torrential rain. Or quickly melting snow. Or failed flood control structures like levees or dams. But the majority of property owners’ policies do not include coverage for losses caused by flooding. That’s why American Family Insurance is a participating company in the National Flood Insurance Program. There’s a 30-day wait before a flood insurance policy takes effect, making it important to consider this coverage now. So call or visit your American Family agent soon to see if you’re eligible to purchase this coverage. The weather won’t wait. The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is managed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), a component of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

The Canton community is welcoming Father Basil Eruo. He will preside at St Joseph’s Catholic Church in Canton, Queen of Peace in Ewing and Notre Dame in LaGrange. Father Basil is a native of Nigeria. Born October 26, 1970, in Amaebu village in Ebenato in the eastern part of Nigeria, Fr. Eruo was the sixth child of seven born to Josephat and Virginia Eruonwokeulo amara ka osiri biris. He learned English as an elementary school student. Although turmoil was present in Nigeria while he was growing up, he experienced a traditional family atmosphere. His family has lived for generations in a farming area about eight miles from the city of Orlu and about 50 miles from the Niger River., and their day to day activities are similar to rural and small town life in Missouri. Extended families tend to cluster together in their area to help each other and to continue family traditions, religion and discipline. Basil started in the junior seminary at the age of 12 and spent five years there. He transferred to the major seminary and altogether, he was in formation for 17 years. More about his life in Nigeria can be found at http://www.discoverthepriesthood.org/Articles/FrEruo. html Fr. Euro was ordained to the Holy Priesthood on Aug. 21, 1999. He came to the United States in June 2007, first serving at St. Patrick parish in Rolla, then moving to St. Peter parish in Jefferson City in June 2009. He said he is very happy to be in Canton and wants to become a part of the community, He said the weather is cold, but the people are warm, and have been very welcoming. He hopes to provide spiritual guidance and will share with the community some of his past experiences, especially some of the folklore and songs of his homeland.

Father Euro interests include soccer, tennis, chess and scrabble. He likes physical activities. He also mentioned he likes fresh food, such as fresh chicken, eggs, and garden produce.

EDITORIAL THIS IS LIFE
A PHOTO FROM YESTERYEAR
Other honor ceremonies attire commentary BY DAN STEINBECK EDITOR dan@lewispnj.com
Again, some actors and some movie just won Academy Awards, which is abbreviated “Oscars.” We’ve since forgotten who, but it seems like the popular thing is to comment on the clothing said stars wore. With that backdrop, here’s how the commentary would go for people in other professions who receive awards. In true Oscars fashion (get it, fashion?), the awards they win are also secondary. Businessman Burt is walking on the banquet hotel carpet. He is wearing stylish khakis and an open collared blue striped polo shirt, and dark brown slip-on shows. Administrative Assistant Ann shows a white chiffon blouse, with a pearl necklace with a short navy blue blazer and kneelength matching pleated skirt, taupe-colored hose and black stiletto heels. A real sharp dresser! Firefighter Frank is walking on to the carpet, which resembles a partially burned floor, wearing a full-length yellow turnout coat with neon green reflective tape, and matching oversized pants. The outfit is nicely accented with klutzy black boots with a yellow pinstripe. His chapeau is a solid plastic black regulation helmet, with the clear visor up and his department logo freshly cleaned. Farmer Edwards is wearing a faded blue pair of Oshkosh overalls, with the legs quaintly adorned with mud (or other dark splotches), which match his thigh-high rubber work boots. On his upper torso he wears a stylish red plaid flannel shirt, with a Bic pen in his pock-
STEINBECK et and a used pocket spiral notebook. Mechanic Molly has a gray-oil stained headto-neck coveralls with a mismatched nametag (Robert), and has industrial work boots. A real winner! Water boy Wally is wearing a red tight fitting Speedo® swimsuit and a white swim cap, and black slip-on pool shoes. Utility man Benny is stunning in his off-white company shirt on, and matching company pants, complete with the wirecutters in a leather pouch on the belt, steel-toed work boots, and his pithstyled slightly scratched regulation-company-issue helmet. Housewife Harriet is stylish with her hair hanging loosely in her eyes. She has an older green “Hooray” for Elvis” sweatshirt, and mismatched sweatpants. She is in dirty socks, and old comfortable shoes with the toes showing. On her arm is the dapper young infant anxiously awaiting his feeding, and next to her is the mop waiting for the work to be finished and the boiling water on the stove. While most of these are hard-working occupations, one group is about people paid to pretend. Guess whom.
Troop B Officers To Conduct New Traffic Enforcement Program Captain James E. Wilt, commanding officer of Troop B, Macon, announces that over the next several months, Troop B officers will be conducting a new traffic enforcement program called “Operation S.T.O.P.” Operation S.T.O.P. (Stop, Think, Observe, and Proceed) is aimed at reducing traffic crashes at intersections having a higher rate of traffic crashes. At many of these intersections, serious crashes have occurred as a result of motorists failing to stop at stop signs or failing to yield to other vehicles as they enter the intersecting roadway.
2010 Missouri traffic crash statistics show that 15.3 percent of all traffic crashes were a result of drivers failing to yield the right-of-way, and 3.9 percent were caused by failure to stop at a stop sign. During these operations, which will utilize a Patrol aircraft, troopers will focus their attention to selected intersections with a goal of detecting stop sign violations; failto-yield violations, as well as other violations that cause traffic crashes. These operations will be held randomly depending on weather conditions and the availability of officers.

LEWIS COUNTY HISTORY
BACKWARD GLANCES From the pages of early Lewis County newspapers 25 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Mar. 12, 1987 Richard U. Jones, District Engineer of the Mo. Highway Dept., has announced that a service sign, bearing the legend “Food” will be erected on U.S. Route 61 in the near future at the Route P and Route 16 interchanges at Canton. Dr. W. B. Dodson was named Canton’s “Outstanding Citizen” by the Canton Chamber of Commerce on Mar. 5. The award was presented by Mrs. Oliver. 45 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Mar. 16, 1967 Dave Steinbeck was elected president of the Canton Chamber of Commerce and Ike Parks, vice president, at the annual meeting of that organization held Tuesday night. Dennie Smith and Jim Rogers were elected to the board of directors. A new Kentucky walnut tree has been planted south of the lawn south of Alexander Campbell Auditorium. The tree has special significance in that it was transplanted from the Can Ridge meeting house near Paris, Ken., a historic site for members of the Disciples of Christ Church. Cane Ridge was the center of the Barton W. Stone movement that united with the Alexander Campbell movement to form the Disciples of Christ. The second annual Canton Open Checker Tournament at the Legion Hall in Canton Sunday drew a large crowd of players and spectators and 21 competitors who took part in the two classes of tournament play. A new residence hall for 72 men will be constructed on the campus of Culver-Stockton College this summer. It will be a three-story building of colonial design to be located to the
north of Wood Hall. The building will be named Ziegler Hall, in honor of the late Leslie E. Zieger, who served as president of Culver-Stockton College from 1950 to 1956. 50 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Mar. X, 1962 The retirement of Dr. Gaspar A. Loughridge, professor of biology at Culver-Stockton College since 1957, has been announced by Dr. Fred Heslabeck, president of the college. Dr. Loughridge who has been in poor health for a time, will complete his service to the college at the end of the current term in June. Sterling McClain has been named Red Cross Disaster chairman, and will be in charge of the Red Cross work in case there is a flood this spring. Mr. McCain would like to know those who have trucks with which the furniture could be hauled from the homes threatened by the high water, those who would help on the trucks, and buildings and garages where the furniture could be stored. Frank W. Smith was honored as “Canton’s Best Citizen of 1961” at the annual Chamber of Commerce banquet. Mr. Smith is the seventh winner of the award. Others were J. Russell Ellis, Arch McRoberts, Dr. P.W. Jennings, Mrs. Mary Morris, Earle Zenge, and Mrs. Ada Roberts. 75 Years Ago The Lewis County Journal Mar. 18, 1937 Mrs. Amanda Carmen is still quite ill at the home of her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Gertrude Carmen. Mrs. Carmen is 84 years old. While not consumed, the residence of the Carl Johann heirs on Washington Street, occupied by John O. Bertram, was ruined by fire that started about 9 o’ clock Sunday morning. Marshal John Madden had a busy time the last of the week helping a number of families out of the flooded section of Canton. The east low section was flooded by back water. The river has been receding. Everett D. Peterson is
the new clerk at the Canton Hardware Co. Earl Lackey, son-in-law of Bryon Ingold, winter 120 head of cattle just above Meyer, feeding them corn raised by Hawk Hardin. The animals were taken across on the Canton ferry. The sequel to the story is that Mr. Lackey is now taking the cattle back to Kirksville. As the ferry is not running he took them to Quincy and drove them over the bridge. He encountered a train which was stopped to let the cattle go by. He has passed Taylor and is now on his way to Kirksville, driving the 120 head. 95 Years Ago The Lewis County Journal Mar. 16, 1917 House Bill No. 935 to change the name of Christian University located at Canton, to that of CulverStockton College passed the House Tuesday and will likely pass the Senate before the end of the week.

Weather Service to add information to storm warnings The National Weather Service in St. Louis is tweaking the information given for storm and tornado warnings. The NWS Central Region has identified five offices to expand “impactbased warnings.” Those offices include Springfield, St. Louis, and Kansas City/Pleasant Hill, all in Missouri and Topeka and Wichita Kansas. Lewis County is among the area served by St. Louis. Jim Kramper of the

National Weather Service said there would still be thunderstorm warnings and tornado warnings. The new information tags intend to enhance current warning efforts. The new information will include tags to say either “radar indicated” or “observed.” Tornado damage tags will include a “significant threat” or a “catastrophic threat.” A thunderstorm warning tag will include “tornado possible.” The new information is expected to start on warning forecasts after April 2. Additional information will be forthcoming.
Quincy regional postal sorting to end soon As expected, the United States Postal Service has agreed to close the Quincy, Illinois processing and distribution center in an effort to save money. It’s one of 264 such moves that will be occurring in the coming weeks in the U.S. Currently, much of the mail in the 623, 634, and 635 zip code zones, is processed through the Quincy facility. This means it will instead go to Columbia, Missouri for processing. According to a pressrelease from the USPS, the Postal Service has experienced a 25 percent decline in First-Class Mail volume since 2006, and receives no tax dollars for its operations, relying instead on the sale of postage, and postal products and services. “The decision to consolidate mail processing facilities recognizes the urgent need to reduce the size of the national mail processing network to eliminate costly underutilized infrastructure,” said Chief Operating Officer Megan Brennan. Specific dates have not been set for the transition. Until a date is announced, residential and business mailers will continue to be served through the current facilities. In December 2011, the Postal Service imposed a moratorium on closing or consolidating post offices and mail processing facilities prior to May 15, 2012, to give Congress and the Administration the opportunity to enact an alternative plan.

CHAPTER 5: Brutus, A Newfoundland Tried and True
Whee doggies. Obedience class does me in—happy I’m back home, a book open at my paws. It’s all about research when about it comes to this Civil War stuff, kind of like playing detective, uncovering bits of information like a sleuth. No not “sloth”—a “sleuth.” Look it up!

In fact, after Antietam President Lincoln played his “trump card” and told the general, “You’re fired.” At Antietam, even though McClellan’s’s ion army far outnumbered Lee’s, the Union officer twiddled his thumbs and let er Lee light off across the Potomac River le back to Virginia. In the end, the battle was still considered a Union victory. It stopped Lee’s invasion of the north, but both sides suffered in this bloody battle, the deadliest single day in the military history of the United States.
As you’ll recall we left off with Stonewall, a Jack Russell with plenty of pluck. This week, I’ll tell you about a giant dog, a Newfoundland and the contribution he made at the Battle of Antietam, which is a bit tricky to pronounce. Sound it out like this: antee-tum. That’s right.
One who died there was Union Capt. Werner von Bachelle, whose name sounds a bit foreign.

Women and Cardiovascular Disease
Once Brutus pulled off the military salute, his Captain had other tricks to teach him. The pair was inseparable, like many war dog mascots, trusty companions that accompanied their masters to war, but reminded them of home sweet home.
This weeks chapter story is sponsored by:
REC
Submitted Photo Mrs. J. OBrien’s class was the winner of the Box Tops for Education collection at Highland Elementary in January. They celebrated with a pizza party sponsored by Canton State Bank.
The Captain had to train that “catch and release” habit right out of Brutus’ repertoire and teach him other tricks, like saluting. Now I’ve got shaking hands down pat, but I can’t imagine the contortions required to heft my paw up to my head—much less lift a webbed paw, like Newfoundlands have.
Cardiovascular disease is the number-one killer of women but most women are too busy to think about that fact. However, women should think about it, because what women do each day in part determines their risk for developing cardiovascular disease and suffering its lifethreatening consequences. Here are some other facts about women and cardiovascular disease that are surprising: One in three women over the age of 20 has some form of cardiovascular disease. Heart disease is the third most common cause of death among women ages 25 to 44 years old and two-thirds of
women who have heart attacks never fully recover. Worldwide, cardiovascular disease is the single most common cause of death among women, regardless of race and ethnicity. More women have strokes than men. According to the American Stroke Association, each year more than 100,000 women under the age of 65 in the United States will have a stroke. Smoking is a major risk factor for heart attack in women. High blood pressure (hypertension) is also a cause of cardiovascular disease and roughly one third of adults in the United States have high blood pressure.
Cardiovascular disease isn’t only about the heart. Women are affected by a range of cardiovascular diseases. Often, cardiovascular disease in one part of the body puts a woman at higher risk of cardiovascular disease elsewhere in the body. That is, if a person has heart disease, she is also at greater risk of stroke, for example. The best way to fight back is to understand how cardiovascular disease forms and how you can control risk factors.

lecturers can sometimes speak to as many as 50 inmates.” said Twaddell. “We are more interested in a factual/educational approach to Black History.” Dr. Giltner’s presentation, entitled Who Freed the Slaves?, re-assessed the typical Abraham Lincoln-centered story of Emancipation and focused on slaves themselves as the engines of their own liberation. For Giltner, the chance to visit a correctional facility and speak to inmates was an important opportunity that he could not pass. “I was told that many of the inmates are highly engaged with history and really benefit from such presentations,” Giltner noted. “I was definitely not disappointed.

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.

Dale Eisenberg is still having medical problems and is back in Blessing Hospital. The high winds this last week created a lot of damage in the area and the most serious was for Luther and Betty Rollins. Their beautiful retirement home was a total fire loss and the heavy winds made it difficult to bring under control. They were not home when it started and have been in the Maywood - Emerson area for 30 years. A number of people in this area attended Democrat Days in Hannibal this past weekend. Claire McCaskill and Governor Nixon were speakers and the keynote speaker was Jim Kabell. Debbie Jackson was named the Grassroots Worker for the year. It was a good weekend with a large attendance. Loretta Bringer, Chairman of the Retention and Recruitment Committee for the Hannibal Regional Hospital Auxiliary had a meeting this week with her committee. I heard from Glenn Birchfield this week.He is in Gila Bend, New Mexico and his family were long time Maywood residents.
