MIDDLE - State Representatives Craig Redmon and Tom Shively and State Senator Brian Munzlinger attended the ribbon cutting to the Ursa Farmers Coop in Canton.BOTTOM - Governor Jay Nixon and wife, Georganne arrive for a ribbon cutting at the new Ursa Farmers Coop facility.
Governor Jay Nixon cut the ribbon at the new Ursa Farmers Coop located at the south end of Canton, Mo. Gov. Nixon arrived at the facility around 11 a.m. Friday, Oct. 19. Lewis County IDA Director, Bill Smith, along with Ursa Farmers Coop General Manager, Gerald Jenkins greeted and introduced the Governor to various members of the community who were instrumental in bringing this project to completion. The Governor was accompanied by his wife, First Lady Georganne, and Jon Hagler, Director of the Missouri Department of Agriculture. Smith and Jenkins guided the group on a tour of the newly completed grain bins and work site and told about the progress and construction of the new Ursa Farmers Coop. Nixon then joined several officials on stage to speak to the large group of people that attended. Gov. Nixon said ” Today marks a great day for agriculture in northeast Missouri, and for the city of Canton. Farmers on the Missouri side of the river now will have easier access to a
port facility that will load their products to be taken downriver to the Gulf, and to reach the global marketplace. This will strengthen agriculture as the backbone of Missouri’s economy, especially our agricultural exports.” Governor Nixon went on to say “Our unemployment rate has reached the lowest level since December 2008, and last year, our exports set an all-time record. We are moving Missouri in the right direction.” Ursa Farmers Coop has a facility located directly across the river from Canton. Farmers choosing to sell their grain to Ursa Farmers Coop had to travel by ferry to deliver their goods. “Delivering Missouri agricultural goods to market in this part of the state just became cheaper, quicker and safer for northeast Missouri farmers,” Gov. Nixon said. “That is a tremendous boost for these men and women who feed, fuel and clothe the world.” The project is very familiar to Governor Nixon who was in Canton in October 2010 to announce the awarding of a

CANTON MAN ARRESTED ON FELONY CHARGES A Canton man, Kevin L. Young, 33, was arrested Oct. 17 on charges of first-degree tampering with a motor vehicle, a Class C felony, and leaving the scene of a motor vehicle accident with property damage, a Class D felony. Canton Police Chief Hayes Shelley reported Canton officers received a report about a suspicious man trying to sell a large knife and jewelry at the Ayerco station in downtown Canton. Young was arrested
after a manhunt that led officers to the Westport Apartment Complex, northwest of Canton. Young eluded officers after allegedly stealing several cellphones from a customer’s car parked at Ayerco, stealing a vehicle from a Canton residence, crashing the stolen vehicle into the side of the Pizza Hut restaurant and leaving the scene. Shelley said Young was arrested at his residence at Westport Apartment Complex,
northwest of Canton. Young was arrested without incident after a report of a vehicle in the woods behind the apartment complex. Police report additional charges are pending. Young is being lodged in the Lewis County Jail in lieu of a $20,000 cash-only bond. Members of the Lewis County Sheriff’s Department and the LaGrange Police Department assisted in the hunt for Young.

MU Extension administration showcased organizational, funding, staffing, programming and delivery University of Missouri Extension administration showcased the new organizational model, funding options, staffing needs, programming venues and delivery for a stronger and more flexible organization. Dr. Michael Ouart, Vice Provost and Director, University of Missouri Extension, Columbia, referred to the responsiveness of the changes in a video format on Monday evening, October 8, at the Northeast Region Council meeting held at North Shelby High School, Shelbyville. The three basic parts of the new model showcased University of Missouri Extension moving to a total resource model for regional programs; developing diverse revenue streams—contracts, grants, fees, gifts and the state appropriated funds; and finally, becoming more administratively lean with the number of regions being reduced from eight to seven. Ouart said that approval to release and search for 20 plus positions to fill strategic gaps in programming and administrative coverage would begin immediately.

EDITORIAL DVENTURES OF WONDER MOM For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved the Fall season. I love the colors of the trees, the smell in the air and the hot apple cider and cocoa that comes with this time of year. Fall is also my favorite time of year when it comes to clothes as well. I’m a big fan of jackets, blazers and cardigans, which are worn perfectly in the cool fall weather. Boots come back into fashion, along with sweaters and leggings. For me, it’s the most comfortable time of the year as far as my clothing goes. But, as much as these little things excite me, and used to be one of the main reasons I loved the fall, over the weekend, I was reminded of an old love that I have fallen for again- but in a completely different way. This weekend, I played in the leaves. I haven’t played in a pile of leaves in years, and it was outstanding to be able to fall into them again, but this time, I fell, jumped, tossed and laughed in the best possible way- with my daughter. As I raked and the leaves gathered into tiny piles, my sweet baby would scream with delight and run over to my little piles and sit down in them, looking up at me and showing every tooth in her mouth. As the piles came together and grew into a much larger pile, to which my daughter eagerly ran and flung herself into. I was amazed. Never once did I have to show my daughter what to do with the big pile of leaves. She knew as soon as she saw them, that they were for jumping, rolling around and laying in. I guess jumping in leaves are ingrained in us from birth. Either way, it was some
BARTLETT of the best fun I’ve had in ages. Made even better once my husband came out and began playing with her as well. Watching him chase her across the yard as she screamed and giggled, catching her, and gently tossing her into the big pile of leaves while she grinned was the highlight of my month. Amidst all the stress I put on myself about trying to be the best possible mom, somehow either God or my daughter, see past all my frustrations and show me a moment of pure bliss that settles my thoughts and makes me feel as though I’m doing alright. This is quite possibly one the best blessings in my life. As mothers, it’s so easy for us to beat ourselves up about not being able to do everything we want to do. I’m one of the worst- I get myself worked up over missing a load of laundry. So, having special moments that serve to show us that we’re not doing as badly as we may think, are the things that should also go on our lists when we’re thanking God for his blessings. Now, I just need to figure out how to get her to stop liking The Fresh Beat Bank on Nick Jr. Listening to her scream “Go Go” every time we turn on the TV is nervewracking!
FROM OUR READERS
Washington Prescribes Wall Street Rules for Main Street It’s a long way from Wall Street, but communities such as Lewis County are on track to face the kinds of regulations imposed on the monumental financial institutions in New York. Regulations due out in a matter of weeks would unnecessarily subject Main Street community banks to the same complex capital requirements as Wall Street megabanks. If you don’t think that’s going to make a tangible difference that will hurt Lewis County, think again. But let’s back up. We all know that the recent financial crisis took down some of the largest financial firms and contributed to the ongoing economic downturn. What you might not know is that in response, a body of regulators based in Basel, Switzerland, established new requirements on how much capital reserves these large institutions must hold. The idea is that the more capital they hold on their books, the more secure they will be when a crisis hits. In addition, these “Basel III” rules included complex standards on calculating the risks of a bank’s assets. C Y
FIRE STATION VISIT
It’s not an unreasonable response to a crisis borne by Wall Street. Here’s the catch. When U.S. financial regulators released their plans for implementing these standards, they proposed imposing them universally—even on the community banks that did not contribute to the crisis. This plan is unreasonable, and dangerous for the financial institutions that serve smaller communities such as Lewis County. Community banks maintain the banking industry’s highest capital levels and operate a relationship-based model that recognizes the unique needs of their customers. Imposing complex capital regulations on them will limit the resources they can use to lend and reinvest in their communities, threatening our recovery. If we want to prevent another Wall Street fiasco, we should not force community banks out of business and leave their customers in the hands of the megabanks. Without a thriving community banking industry, when it comes to our financial options, we won’t be that far from Wall Street at all. Virgil Welker, President Bank of Monticello

FROM OUR READERS Dear voter, workingclass, family-oriented, church-going, patriotic Democrat friends, Please stop for a minute and think about what the Democratic Party has become- at least at the national level. Is this still the part that represents your morals and values and your hopes and dreams for yourself, your children and your grandchildren? The party that: -Supports taking the lives of unborn children at any time for any reason or for no reason at all. -Supports homosexual marriage. -Eliminates God from its
platform and then boos at it’s convention when God is reinstated against the wishes of the majority of delegates. Four years ago, little was known about Democrat Barack Obama except the obvious observations that he was intelligent, wellspoken and able to arouse excitement without any substance to his rhetoric. Today it is known that his entire mentality was formed by his association with selfavowed communist and socialist professors and acquaintances. He has shown himself time and again to be a terrorist
sympathizer who always blames America first. This is not just another election where both parties have the best interests of our country in mind. There really is no middle ground this time. The choice is clear. This election is about turning back the evil that sympathizes with terrorists, attack Christian doctrine and as shown that it wants to transform the USA into a socialist country. Margaret Thatcher said, “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.” The Democrats seem
to see no end to other people’s money. They play to the heartstrings of champions for the poor and sick, while they spend billions of taxpayer money on frivolous pet projects, and receive huge donations funded by bankrupt green jobs also given taxpayer money. It’s take to wake up and vote your values, not your party. Being a Democrat these days means something far different than it used to. Nancy Berhorst, Canton, MO.

Governor Nixon Visits Canton Continued from page 1A Community Development Block Grant of $1,990,000 by the state to assist in acquiring ten blighted properties at the site of the new grain elevator. The site was the former location of Tri-State Fertilizer, an agricultural chemical company. As part of this developmental process, the property was cleared and environmental violations and contamination on the property were remediated. After the site was prepared, Ursa Farmers Cooperative invested $6 million to construct the facility. “This was a partnership effort to make this grain elevator a reality,” the Governor said. “It could not have happened without local officials with the city of Canton, Lewis County, and the Industrial
Development Authority working closely with the 400 farm families who belong to this cooperative and with the state of Missouri. Lewis County Industrial Authority director Bill Smith said that he was delighted to have the Governor attend the ribbon cutting so that he could see the near completion of this facility due to funding of the grant money through the Department of Economics.” Smith said, “Anytime a sitting Governor can take time out of his busy schedule to come to our area is a great day and a plus for the community, regardless of party affiliation. Smith was especially pleased that Nixon was able to see this project from the very beginning
to the end result. Also speaking to the large crowd were Canton Mayor Jarod Phillips, Jim Upchurch, Gerald Jenkins and Bill Smith. The Governor also pointed out his appreciation to all who have worked on the project and spoke about former Mayor Terry Fretwell’s father,

SCHOOL NEWS Canton FFA holds Food for America New Crisis Response Procedures At Event Canton R-V
Submitted Photo
A young student participates in the Tractor Safety section of the Food for America event held by the Canton Agriculture Education Department.
On Oct.10, 2012 the Canton Agriculture Education Department held their annual Food for America event. This event is focused around agriculture literacy with elementary students. The high school agriculture education students teach lessons covering various career pathways in agriculture. This year the stations concentrated on horticulture, conservation, agriculture mechanics, and animal science. Elementary students were rotated from station to station. The Horticulture station taught elementary students about plant propagation using a parent plant. Students were asked to help the presenters plant African violet leaves which had been removed from the parent plant about a month previous and had begun to grow roots. The students were asked various questions such as what do plants need to grow and what type of leaf does an African Violet have. The Agriculture Mechanic station revolved around tractor safety. The Canton FFA was able to show off the restored Allis Chalmers WD which the Agriculture Power class completed last year. Each elementary stu-
dent after hearing a short presentation on Tractor safety was able to sit in the tractor seat. The Conservation Station focused on fur bearing animals. Elementary students identified furs and skulls from various Missouri Wildlife species. The high school students explain important conversation laws currently in effect, why conservation is important, as well as common identifying characteristics of mammals. The furs were borrowed for the Missouri Department of Conservation. The Animal Science station is the highlight of the day for both elementary and high school students. Students were exposed to a variety of common Missouri livestock species. Among the animals were ducks, chickens, rabbits, goats, pigs, sheep, and puppies. Once students had visited each station they washed their hands and came in the classroom for a short presentation on the Agriculture Education program at Canton. While the elementary students listened to the presentation they enjoy ice cream donated by Prairie Farms Dairy.
Canton R-V School District will begin implementing three levels of crisis response when responding to events within the District. The three levels were presented at the October 8th Board of Directors meeting and faculty and staff received the updated protocols on October 10, during their in-service. The new response procedures were developed after attending training presented by SchoolReach and Impact America. In all of the following responses, parents will be notified via a voice message from SchoolReach with detailed information regarding the situation that initiated the response. According to Principal Jesse Uhlmeyer, “This new system of response will allow us the respond to situations more effectively and allow normal, daily activities to continue with minimal disruption to the school day.” Also, Uhlmeyer explained, that parents will be notified as soon as possible through phone calls from SchoolReach because voice calls are the fastest way to notify parents. “We currently do not allow parents to opt out of voice calls and receive text message and emails only. This is because SchoolReach has notified us that in emergency situations text messages and emails rely heavily on computer servers that can get bogged down and delay the information going out. They have stressed
that voice messages are the fastest way to deliver information.” The first level of response is a “stay put.” This response will be issued when there is no threat to the safety of students or staff. Instead, there is a situation where students need to remain in classrooms and refrain from using public areas (hallways, restrooms, etc). Types of situations that would result in this type of response would be medical emergencies, major maintenance issues inside the building or nonemergency searches of the building. This type of response allows for normal classroom activities to occur while the response takes place. The second level of response is a “secured perimeter.” Canton R-V School District currently locks all exterior entrances daily to maintain the safety of our students. However, there may be times when law enforcement authorities notify the District of situations or threats outside of the building or in the area that would require a higher level of secured perimeter. In these cases all windows will be shaded and all outside activities will be postponed, including recess, and students will not be allowed to leave the building. The final type of response would be a “lockdown” of the building due to a threat to the safety of the students and staff inside of the building.

Culver-Stockton dedicates Simulated Classroom in Memory of Student One year ago this month, a Culver-Stockton student’s life was tragically ended in a car wreck. Jordan Smith was a single mother who was enrolled in her senior year of college, where she was working on her degree in English education. The car wreck shook the Culver-Stockton community and the past year has not erased the community’s memory of this inspiring woman. Now, in honor of this popular girl who is missed by so many, Culver-Stockton is
dedicating a Simulated Classroom in her memory. The room is set up like a elementary classroom, and provides a location for students from the community to be tutored by C-SC education majors. The classroom is stocked with over a thousand children’s books, including a set of highly specialized reading guides. The room has a Smart Board and a mobile teacher’s center. There are also reminders of Smith throughout the room. A sign hands in the corner that reads

Culver-Stockton to add Four to Athletic Hall of Fame Jeff Stollberg, Theresa (Totsch) McGaughey, Dan Powers and the 1984-85 men’s basketball team will be enshrined into the Culver-Stockton College Athletic Hall of Fame during Homecoming activities Oct. 26-28. The inductees will be honored at the CulverStockton College Athletic Hall of Fame Banquet from 6-8 p.m. this Friday, Oct. 26, at the Gladys Crown Center Dining Hall on the Culver-Stockton campus. All current Hall of Fame members, alumni and the general public are invited to the banquet. Tickets can be purchased by contacting the Alumni Relations Office at 800-755-CATS (2287), and there is a fee. The honorees will also be recognized during halftime of the Homecoming football game with Baker University this Saturday, Oct. 27. Jeff Stollberg ’73, a native of Quincy, Ill. came to Culver-Stockton in 1970 to play basketball and became one of the best players to wear the Wildcat uniform. Stollberg was a threeyear letterwinner who scored over 500 points in a season twice during his career and led his team in scoring in two of his three seasons. During his senior season, Stollberg averaged 19.5 points per game and was named to the NAIA All-America team as an honorable mention
selection. Stollberg left school ranked sixth on the alltime points list with 1,168 career points, and he graduated as the season and career free throw percentage leader. He was twice named to the NAIA All-District 16 second team during his career, ands was the 1973 team comost valuable player. In addition to his basketball prowess, Stollberg also competed in track and field at C-SC where he set school records in the 120yard and 400-yard high hurdles. Theresa (Totsch) McGaughey ’84, a native of Carthage, Ill., was a four-year letterwinner on the women’s basketball team. She was a threetime All-Heart of America Athletic Conference and all-district selection, including a first-team picks in 1983 and 1984. During her playing days, McGaughey held the school’s all-time scoring record with 1,332 points for three seasons, and set the school single-season rebounding record in a season with 232, which has since been broken. McGaughey helped the Lady Wildcats claim the first of their nine HAAC championships during her senior year of 1983-84. Dan Powers ’99, a native of Indian Head Park, Ill., was a four-year letterwinner in baseball. He was a three-time
All-HAAC performer, including a second team pick in 1997, and helped the Wildcats to two Midwest Region championships and two NAIA World Series appearances where they finished seventh and third, respectively. Powers’ name is dotted throughout the Wildcat baseball record book. He is the all-time leader in runs batted in (RBI) with 154, second in walks with 82, third in runs scored (158) and hits (213), fifth in triples with seven, sixth in career batting average (.376) and 10th in doubles with 31. The 1984-85 men’s basketball team set a school record for most victories with 23, a record that still stands today. The Wildcats, coached by Rod Walton, finished the campaign with a 23-7 overall record and placed second in the HAAC with an 11-3 league mark. The Wildcats advanced to the NAIA District 16 playoffs for the first time in 12 years and upset the University of MissouriKansas City (UMKC) in the first round before falling to Drury University in the semifinals. Member of the 198485 men’s basketball team were Dave Varner, James Jones, Doug Smith, Brad Woolard, Steve Epperson, Vernal Turner, Mike Strange, Dennis Klingele and Don Kennedy.
Also, Mike Owen, Ron Bailey, Phil Stine, Buddy Schwartzenberg,
Greg Hoener and Darrin Hall. Thaddeus Hamilton served as an assistant

In refiling from the County to the State, the ceiling by State was changed to allow the levy to be set for General .99 per 100 valuation and .25 as voters approved for the Streets with 2012 levy set at 1.24 per 100 valuation. In new business, Bill Hayes discussed issues at the Community Building.

Alayna is four years old and the Durst and Moore families were present for the celebration. Alayna is the granddaughter of Derl and Ruth Bowman and the great granddaughter of Paul and Irene Durst. Loretta Bringer attended the Mt.Salem/Wyaconda Baptist Associational meeting in Lewistown on Thursday evening. Friday afternoon Jack Fountain took his granddaughter, Sydney Fountain to gymnastics in Quincy. Friday evening visitors in the Fountain home were Katrina, Jeremy and Kaden Hunerkoch of Highland, Il. Their trip was two hours longer because of construction along their way. George Johnson remains in the University Hospital in Columbia after the recent accident in Ralls Co. last week. He is facing more surgery and thankful that his life was spared. He needs our prayers and cards. Saturday was a fun day for the Fountain family. Pete, Jack, Chris, Tracy, Tristan, Sydney and Katrina, Jeremy and Kaden Hunerkoch went to Edina to celebrate the 81st birthday of Adeline Davis. Mrs. Davis is Pete Fountains mother and her party was a surprise. Others present were her other daughters, Brenda and Judy and their families. Marvin and Loretta Bringer, Ann Brink and Gene Trautvetter attended the Deutsch Country Days in Marthasville, Mo on Saturday. This is a living history weekend of folkways and skills of the early German settlers in Missouri. It was a beautiful day and an interesting festival. They enjoyed dinner at the Riverview Restaurant on the way home. A number of folks from the Maywood area attended theFolklife Festival in Hannibal over the weekend. It was a beautiful weekend to be out and they had a lot of vendors. South Union Baptist Church is having a special service on Nov. 11 honoring Veterans during the morning worship service at 10:30 a.m. All veterans and their families are invited to share in this special time of thanking our veterans.

Keith Manyx of Knox City celebrated his 57th Birthday party on Saturday night, with a very good BBQ, lots of people present and the food was very good. Karla Oberdahlhoff, Regina Lecklee and Nancy Shouse have been trying to get some walking in before this cold weather gets here, then we will have to go to the school to try and do some walking. I for myself like to walk outside if at all possible. I have been seeing some others walking the streets these last few days, they know its going to be to cold to walk outside soon. Cold weather is to be here by the weekend. Gene Rudd of Ewing and LaVeta Wolter of Knox City were in Quincy, Il shopping on Monday. I plan on shopping on Wednesday this week for a new cell phone. Halloween is coming up soon, get your candy bought as we will have lots of trick or treaters out cold or hot weather. I visited Kathaleen Wagy and she is looking for pictures of the old schoolhouses that were in Lewis county, I found some of them listed in the LaBelle historical collection book that was published by Mary Jane Pinson Ott in 1992. I purchased this book several years ago but not sure if there is someone that has any of these books left to sell. In this book Lewis county had 86 schools and they were started in 1833 I believe. From the LaBelle Star in 1936 there was 86 schools and they are listed and it also listed the teachers of that year. I hope if anyone has some of these for sale they will leave word at the library so that Mrs Wagy can get one of these books. I haven’t read all of this book yet but it has lots of interesting information in it. Mrs Wagy’s father was a teacher and he taught in several of these schools. We still have Knox County Country School Books for sale, call 660 342 5251 of 660 341 7049 or stop by our library and see if they have any left.
