The Canton R-V Soccer team won their District Championship against Christian High School.

The team began their district play against number three seed, St. Peters Lutheran. The Tigers defeated St. Peters Lutheran 4-2, with Austin Hoewing and Logan Brown scoring a goal each and Tyler Niemann scoring two goals. David McReynolds, Jonny Lee, and Cameron Durst had assists.

In their second game, the Tigers played against number one seed Christian High

School. After 80 minutes of no score, the game went into the first 15 minutes of overtime, which yielded no score, leading to another 15 minutes of overtime. After a total of 110 minutes with no score, the game moved to penalty kicks.

Fortunately for the Tigers, they were chosen to kick second, behind Christian.

The first Christian player scored his goal, and Austin Hoewing followed suit by scoring one as well. Christian’s second player was unable to score, but Brandon

Berhorst converted his. The third Christian player also missed his goal, with Tyler Niemann scoring yet another PK for the Tigers. The team waited anxiously as Christian’s fourth player prepared to take his penalty kick. Unfortunately, he scored; with Canton needing Jonny Lee to convert his, for victory. Jonny successfully converted from the spot, resulting in a Canton victory. This is the second District Championship that the Tigers have claimed in a row, but Coach Sarah Mueller explains

that it was no easy victory.

“This year we had a completely different district and probably a harder one. We had five teams compared to only three last year,” Mueller remarked.

The Tigers will play Principia (12-11) on Wed., Nov. 7 at 5 p.m. at the soccer field on the Culver-Stockton campus. The game was originally planned for Tuesday, but due to poor field conditions, it was postponed.

Several LaGrange residents attended a meeting at the LaGrange Post Office to discuss the Post Plan which the United States Post Office is implementing to cut operating costs. Several post offices across the region have been closed and several small town post offices across the nation could be in danger of closing. The Williamstown Post Office closed on Oct. 31.

Elaine Davis, an official with the Untied States Post Office, conducted the meeting and explained the results of a survey that postal customers had been requested to fill out. Most of the surveys were in favor of reducing hours to keep the facility open. Plans are to go to a six hour day with closing time at 2:30 p.m. and shorter Saturday hours will remain the same.

The LaGrange Post Office has 178 post boxes in use and Larry Hoyes, rural delivery driver said he serves 543 customers on his daily 86 mile route. Several residents expressed concerns about the early closings, especially businesses who would like a later closing time. Ms. Davis said the reduced hours are necessary and probably wouldn’t be implemented until summer.

Davis said at first the Post Office planned to shut down several facilities across the county but reconsidered after the public outcry of communities losing their post offices, so the Post Plan was put into effect to try to keep as many local post offices open as possible, but she also warned it was a temporary fix and unless communities support their local facilities, more closings are possible.

Each post office is monitored to see how much revenue is received. Residents are encouraged to support their local post offices by mailing packages, buying stamps and using other services provided by the local facilities.

With Sincere Appreciation

Lewis County Sheriffs department investigates dog bite The Lewis County Sheriff’s Office is investigating an incident where a nine year old child was bitten by a pit bull. The child was bitten in the face at the residence of Ernie Raleigh. Raleigh is the child’s uncle and owner of the dog. Lewis County Sheriff David Parrish said according to early investigation by his department, the dog may have been provoked by the child.

The animal will be quarantined for at least ten days and investigators are trying to determine if the animal has shown any other signs of aggression in the past. The case will be sent to the Lewis County Prosecutor’s Office who will determine if charges will be filed. The incident happened on Nov. 5 in Ewing.

Al Beck presents book to Canton and Culver-Stockton Library

Arrest Made For Stealing Captain S. L. Eberhard, Director of the Division of Drug and Crime Control, announces the arrest of Howard A. Smith for felony stealing, felony receiving stolen property, and felony resisting arrest.

The arrest is a result of an investigation conducted by members of the Division of Drug and Crime Control’s Troop B Investigation Unit.

On Tuesday, October 30, 2012, troopers from the Missouri State Highway Patrol along with Knox County Deputies arrested Howard A. Smith, age 40, of Edina, Missouri on Knox County felony warrants for stealing and receiving stolen property.

Smith was also arrested for felony resisting arrest by fleeing. Smith was

SMITH held in the Lewis County Jail pending release on a $10,000 cash only bond.

The above charges are mere accusations and are not evidence of guilt. Evidence in support of these charges must be presented before a court of competent jurisdiction whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.

Troop B Officers To Participate In Operation C.A.R.E. During The Thanksgiving Holiday Captain James E. Wilt, commanding officer of Troop B, Macon, announces Troop B officers will be participating in Operation C.A.R.E. during the 2012 Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Operation C.A.R.E. (Combined Accident Reduction Effort) is a national traffic enforcement program aimed at making holiday weekends safer.

During this enforcement operation, all available troopers will be assigned to patrol Missouri highways, not only aggressively enforcing traffic laws, but also to be available in the event motorists experience any type of emergency. In addition to Operation C.A.R.E., Troop B officers will conduct a “20-Mile Trooper” enforcement operation on U.S. Highway 61 throughout the Troop B area and

selected portions of U.S. Highways 36 and 63, on Wednesday, November 21, 2012, and Sunday, November 25, 2012. During this operation, officers will be assigned to 20-mile sections of those roadways in an effort to promote safety and reduce traffic crashes on the primary roadways in Troop B. Missouri is currently experiencing a six percent increase in traffic fatalities compared to the same period last year. The Patrol is committed to the reduction of traffic crash fatalities through education and enforcement efforts.

“We expect many motorists to be traveling throughout Missouri over this holiday period,” stated Captain Wilt. “Our goal is very simple: We want everyone to arrive at their destination safely.”

A Short History of Last Week’s Where in Lewis Co. The photo was the brass bell that was removed from the Christian Church in Monticello and is in a Gazebo on the old site of the Church. The land is now part of the Lodge of Monticello. Bill Smith was instrumental in what is present today. The rocks that the bell sets on are from the foundation of the Church. The Gazebo was constructed by Bill and Vernie Stice. As could be seen in the photo, the bell was produced by the Buckeye Bell Foundry in Ohio. There is a sister bell that is on a ship that I believe was used during the civil war.

The Robert ’78 and Kathryn Gillum Education Technology Lab was dedicated on the Culver-Stockton Campus Friday, Oct. 26 at 3:30 p.m. The ceremony was one in a series of events for Homecoming Weekend. The Gillums were present to cut the ribbon on the room for the formal dedication.

Robert has accomplished much in his career, including being named the 2011 Illinois Superintendent of the Year and holding the title of President of the Illinois Association of School Administrators. Kathy also spent her life as an educator. The couple is passionate about developing comprehensive in today’s youth, and believes this begins with educators. “Technology is advancing so quickly, it is vital that future educators stay current,” says Robert. “My 6-yearold twin granddaughters were given iPads on their first day of school. Their brains don’t even comprehend the oldfashioned, black and white worksheet.”

The Education Technology Lab has pooled the resources of the education department to one location. There is a Smart Board and Apple TV to accompany the 16 new computers for the lab.

All of these resources allow technology to become an integral part of class time for education majors, where it was only a secondary enrichment tool prior to this lab. The education lab improves student engagement—not only for C-SC students, but for the students they will eventually teach.

The dedication included speeches by College President Richard Valentine and Robert Gillum. Gillum drew laughs from the packed house with his keen observations: “Children are growing up with touch screen technology, from the time they are old enough to be entertained by their parent’s iPhone’s to keep them quiet in a restaurant.”

Culver-Stockton is a four-year residential baccalaureate college in affiliation with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) located in Canton, Mo. It is one of only two colleges in the nation to offer a 12/3 academic calendar, instead of the typical 15-week semester.

EDITORIAL DVENTURES OF WONDER MOM I’ve always been fond of the English language. I love how words can provide an image of something beautiful and make it feel as if you are actually there. But, there’s also something that has always attracted me to math. What might that be?

It’s the certainty of it. Two and two are always going to equal four, and the rules of math are constant.

Parenthood isn’t one of the things in life that has constant rules. There are a few guidelines to follow as far as teaching good table manners, etc., but for the most part, we, as parents, are on our own. Every decision we make affects our children in some way or another. Potential parents, are you scared yet? Personally, I think a mother’s tale would be far more terrifying than Poe’s Tell-tale heart.

I find myself constantly asking “What is the right thing?” For example, when she plays in her room, she pulls out all of her clothes, scattering them across the floormost often after I’ve just spent time putting them all away. Do I keep her bedroom door shut so she can’t get to her clothes and if I did, would that make her feel unwelcome in her own bedroom? Given, that may be thinking too much of a toddler’s psyche, but to me, these are some of the important years. I want to build a good foundation for my daughter- to teach her to be respectful, to ask nicely for what she wants, and to be the sweet little angel that I know she can be.

Now, she has officially learned to ‘talk back’ to me. I’m very tender-headed, and have been my entire life, while my daughter has a fondness for playing with hair. In her sweetest manner, she sticks her little hand up to my head and twirls her fingers through my hair, getting it tangled and therefore ripping it out. I always try to respond nicely by asking her to ‘Please leave Mommy’s hair alone.’ Now, when I

BARTLETT ask her this, she looks me in the eye and shouts “NO!” The first time she did it, I hid my face so I could chuckle, being that it was just so cute, but after a few times, I’m literally left stumped on how I should respond to her.

How do you tell a toddler not to ‘talk back’?

Fortunately, all of the things I worry about at the moment are ‘little’ things.

But, even with them being small issues, I worry myself to death about them. I realize that every parent, at some point, worries that they aren’t doing a good job with their kids, but when I look around at all the other parents I know, it feels like I’m the only one who is clueless. Is there anyone out there that feels like I do?

Thankfully, I do have some ‘seasoned’ parents in my aresanol. My mother, grandmother, stepmother, mother-in-law, and grandmother-in-law are all wonderful women that I can vent my worries to and I can listen to their helpful advice when needed. I’m very grateful to all of these women because, in some way, they’ve all assisted in shaping me into the woman that I am today, so, surely they can help me in shaping the woman that I want my daughter to me.

So, to the mothers and fathers that are in my shoes, this is my way of saying that you’re not alone. I’m freaking out too, and we haven’t even started potty training yet…

Area Minister Dr. Kris TenneyBrittian gave the message and blessing before a large audience. The congregation and pastor promised to support one another in the coming years of Pastor Mandy’s ministry.

FISHING BENCHES INSTALLED

Thank God For Our Heroes Photo by Rita Cox

The City of LaGrange is in the process of installing benches at the stage area in Washington Park and are also placing two benches at the new fishing park near the Wyaconda Bridge. The benches are made of recycled material and were provided by a grant from Regional Planning.

Formerly called Armistice Day, November 11 commemorates the anniversary of the signing of the peace treaty between the allied and central powers in France in 1918. The end of hostilities between these two powerful opposing forces marked the end of the “War to end all wars” or “The Great War,” as it was called. Many observe silent memorial at the eleventh hour on this day.

Although a result of World War I, this special day has become a time to honor all those who have so unselfishly served in our nation’s Armed Forces and risked so much to preserve the high ideals and future hopes of America.

To the men and women of the military who give so much during war and peace, we say “Thank You”.

Hurricane Sandy Affects Local Residents Henry Gunsauls of LaGrange, originally from Union Beach, NJ, traveled to the storm ravaged area to help his friends and family in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Family and friends of Theresa and Henry Gunsauls submitted photos of the devastation to the Press-News Journal. A follow-up article detailing their trip will be in the Press-News Journal next week.

BY RITA COX Reporter rita1@lewispnj.com

Henry and Theresa Gunsauls of LaGrange, knew Hurricane Sandy would threaten their hometown of Union Beach, New Jersey, and Theresa describes being on the phone with relatives that live there as one of the worst feelings a person can imagine. She could hear the winds and how fierce they were, and the fear of having her relatives so far away and she could do nothing except offer support and pray.

The town has been devastated by the hurricane. The Gunsauls lived in Union Beach until they moved to LaGrange sixteen years ago. They have many relatives and friends who have been affected by the massive storm.

Henry Gunsauls is Chief of the LaGrange Fire Department and his wife, Theresa, is a former mayor and city council member of LaGrange.

Henry’s sister lost her entire house. Theresa’s sister lost her garage and car.

Union Beach has only a volunteer fire department where Henry’s brother is a member. The department needed help and supplies to cope with the massive devastation Henry Gunsauls, his son Henry Jr., Grant Kennedy and Joe LaCount left for Union Beach, New Jersey, on Friday, Nov. 2. With four drivers, the group drove non-stop until the reached the Jersey shoreline community.

The group packed fire and medical equipment, much

needed generators and gas, blankets, water and other supplies. The LaGrange and Canton Fire Departments have been through several disasters in this area, floods, tornados, wind storms, gas leaks, and fires, so their expertise in handling emergency situations was much needed.

Theresa Gunsauls said the four men arrived on Saturday, Nov. 3, and were put to work helping people, hooking up generators, pulling debris out of streets and homes and working the midnight shift as EMS and firefighters. The group told Theresa that pictures they have sent to her really don’t show the magnitude of how much damage the town of Union Beach incurred. Mrs. Gunsauls wanted to go and help her family and friends and hometown, but her niece is to be married on Saturday and she was committed to helping with the wedding. Henry Gunsauls is to walk the bride, Kristen Long, down the aisle and the group will leave New Jersey on Friday to enable Gunsauls to be at the wedding Saturday afternoon. The Gunsaul’s plan to make the trip to New Jersey in December to provide more help and support.

Anyone wanting to help and donate to the victims can call Theresa Gunsauls at (573) 6554173. More information, pictures and interviews about the group’s trip to Union Beach will appear in next week’s edition.

The Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri’s “Food for the Holidays” campaign begins Nov. 1 and lasts until Dec. 31. During this time, The Food Bank’s goal is to collect enough food and funds to provide 15 million meals for hungry Missourians.

The Food Bank’s “Food for the Holidays” comes in light of the unprecedented need for food assistance in today’s local economy. Each of the 32 counties in The Food Bank’s service area is affected by food insecurity, including Lewis County.

“Food insecurity is just another way of saying that individuals sometimes don’t know where their next meal will come from. In Lewis County, 15.6 percent of people suffer from food insecurity. So that means 1,600 people might not know where they will get their next meal. Unfortunately 590 of those people are children,” says Theresa Spaedy, Regional Coordinator for The Food Bank.

The Food Bank helps to feed those in need in Lewis County by providing free food to the First Baptist Church Pantry in Canton and by providing the Buddy Pack program for children. The organization can provide 15 pounds of food or 11 meals for every one dollar donation. The Food Bank has distributed 246,579 pounds of groceries in Lewis County so far in 2012.

“Of all the gifts given this holiday season, providing a meal for a hungry child is one of the most impactful things we can do. It costs very little and will mean the world to a family in need,” says Peggy Kirkpatrick, executive director of The Food Bank.

There are several ways for the community to get involved in efforts.

Information on all the options is available at www. sharefoodbringhope.org/foodfortheholidays/.

The Food Bank of Central and Northeast Missouri, along with the Conservation Federation and local food pantries, encourage area hunters to donate a deer for the purpose of helping families in the local community.

Share the Harvest is a program administered by the Conservation Federation of Missouri. Hunters who want to participate simply take their deer to a participating meat processor. There is typically no processing fee charged to the hunter when a whole deer is donated. The processor is paid $60 by the Conservation Federation, for each whole deer processed.

The processed venison, usually ground into burger, is distributed to local food pantries and is made available to families in the community who are struggling to make ends meet.

Financially speaking, many families are currently experiencing the “perfect storm”. The rising costs of groceries, fuel and utilities, often coupled with the loss of a job, cause many local families to have to choose between basic necessities. Donating a deer to share the Harvest is one way to help mitigate these difficult choices.

In 2011, the 11 days that comprised the Firearms “Main Portion” season yielded 191,000 of the 292,000 deer harvested throughout all deer hunting seasons.

Over 6,000 deer were donated to Share the Harvest.

Many processors only accept deer donations for a few weeks in November, which include the 11 days of the Firearms “Main Portion” season.

For more information about Share the Harvest call (800) 764-3663 or visit www.mdc.mo.gov and click on “Share the Harvest”.

Participating Processors by NE Missouri County: Lewis: Lumley Locker (LaBelle) Clark: Kahoka Meat Processing (Kahoka) Marion: Hannibal Custom Processing (Hannibal), Country Butcher Shop (Palmyra), Walnut Hills (Philadephia) Note: Putnam, Shelby and Knox Counties do not currently have a participating Share the Harvest meat processor.

Dear family and friends, Dear Lewis Co C-1 staff, parents and students, Thank you for the many prayers, phone calls, and emails we received during Ted’s surgery, recovery, and rehabilitation. We appreciate the support, understanding and encouraging words during my absence from school and at parent teacher conferences. The help we received at home and school while we were away was very comforting.
