HEAD ON CRASH INJURES ONE The Missouri State Highway Patrol reports a head on crash occurred one mile south of LaGrange on Dec. 9. A 2000 Mercury Marquis, driven by Carolyn F. Taylor, 76, Quincy, Ill, was traveling north on Rte. B when it crossed the center line and struck a southbound 2000 Dodge Caravan, driven by Brady R. Shrader, 17, LaGrange, Mo. Both vehicles traveled off the roadway into the ditch. Taylor was transported by Lewis County EMS to Blessing Hospital with minor injuries. Both vehicles had to be towed from the scene. Also assisting were the LaGrange Police Department, Lewis County Sheriff’s Office and the LaGrange Fire and Rescue.

Ursa Farmers Coop to hold open house BY RITA COX Reporter rita1@lewispnj.com Ursa Farmers Cooperative will host an open house this Friday, Dec. 14, at the new facility at 307 Elm Street in Canton, Mo. The public is invited. Lunch will be served at 11:30 a.m. followed by a informational program and grand opening ceremony. A special tribute to Dale McCutchan, a long time supporter of Ursa Farmers Coop, will be held with the ceremonial first load of grain delivered by Dan McCutchan, Cindy McCutchan and Jill Putnum, Dale McCutchan’s family. Roger Hugenberg is the assistant general manager of the Canton operation. Agriculture has always been one of the economic forces in Lewis County and northeast Missouri and having a facility for crop producers to bring their grain to market is vital for farmers.

The new Ursa Farmers facility in Canton is designed to provide a safe way for northeast Missouri farmers to market their grain. The Canton facility’s river location is one that is considered open water all year and is the northern most port opened all year. It is protected by a levee that has historically not failed. The ability to ship grain twelve months out of the year is an advantage for the company and shareholders and the economic impact of having a facility on the Missouri side of the river will have a ripple effect throughout the area. A facility on the Missouri side of the river has been thought about for many many years and a stimulus grant awarded in October 2010 enabled many blighted properties to be cleaned up paved the way for an elevator to be built in Canton. Many many people were instrumental in bringing the idea and realization of an Ursa Farmers

Although agriculture has changed over the years, bringing grain to market had not. Many producers spend hours in line at the elevator waiting their turn to empty their grain. Over the last 90 years, farmers have hauled See more on Pg. 2A...

LOCAL NEWS Ursa Farmers Open House continued... their grain to market using horses, then small trucks and now semi trucks can carry over 80,000 pounds of grain at one time. With the changing ways of the world, speed is necessary and valuable time is sometimes wasted by waiting in line at the elevator. The Canton facility is designed to speed up the process and also designed to grow and adapt as technology changes. When a producer arrives at the Canton facility to sell their grain, they will have an identification tag that can be read from the scale house. This will tell the operators who they are, history of the client, etc. The product will be tested and then the producer will be told where to dump their grain. This can be done in less than ten minutes, thus enabling farmers to return to their fields quickly. Also data can be sent directly to the producer on their smart phones. The facility will also accommodate those who do not have access to technology. Customer service will be a priority. Many grain producers on the Missouri side of the river used the ferry to transport their grain for many many years. Many residents have inquired about the fate of the Canton ferry. Ursa Farmers

will continue to support the Canton ferry. They have paid for all operational services for the last 20 years and they are actively looking for another entity to help with the operations, according to assistant general manager Roger Hugenberg. Ursa Farmers Cooperative (UFC) was organized in 1920 and is a grain marketing and farm supply cooperative operating in west central Illinois and northeast Missouri. UFC is producer-owned by more than 2400 members with earned ownership equity. UFC has seven locations, Bowen, Camp Point, Loraine and Ursa, plus river locations for barge loading at Canton and Meyer and Warsaw Illinois. These elevators serve over a 50 mile radius through the tristate area, and it is estimated that it will handle more than 30 million bushels of grain in 2013. The majority of the grain originated by UFC is sold for export, shipped out of the Gulf of Mexico. More information about UFC can be found at their website www.ursacoop.com UFC also offers a full array of programs and services for its members including crop insurance. Ursa Farm Marketing, Inc. is a personalized finan-

cial marketing program and also offered is Ursa Brokerage Inc. The UFC Feed Department mixed and delivered 70,000 tons of feed from Ursa last year and is a current member of the Land O’ Lakes feed network. The UFC Trucking Department hauled over four million bushels of grain and over 35 thousand tons of input feed last year. As a dealer for Lewis Hybrids, last year UFC had sales on more than 9,000 bags of corn, 20,000 bags of soybeans and 6,500 bags of wheat seed. The seed conditioner at Loraine conditioned over 85,000 bags of seed last year. The cost of the Canton facility was built at a cost of 11 million dollars, with expansion plans already in the works. They have worked closely with many agencies to ensure no problems will occur because of their existence. Ursa Famers Coop sponsors many local events including FFA livestock auctions, tractor pulls, livestock judging, scholarships, Farmer of the Year award, high school events and many others. The business and the employees look forward to serving the area and being a vital part of the community.

DVENTURES OF WONDER MOM

Home for the holidays... If there’s one thing I’m truly looking forward to, it’s the flight that will take my daughter and me back to Georgia for a few days. Although some of my family members have ‘seen’ my daughter through video chat, the majority of my family have been left with nothing but pictures and quick phone conversations with Amaya since July. This is not only hard on my family, but also on me. So much about my little squirt has changed since July- she blows me away with each new word (and even phrase) she learns, her actions and understanding of things have changed, and she’s becoming this independent little villain whose sole purpose is to wreak havoc upon our household (or at least, that’s how it seems). My house is decorated at last, minus a few special touches I hope to add on Christmas Eve so that Amaya can wake up and not only experience the magic of Christmas, but also have a special birthday as well. It seems so hard to believe that our princess will be two when we get up Christmas morning. I’m thankful I’ve made it through so far! Now, I just have to figure out how I’m going to make it through the Terrible Two’s. Prematurity, acid reflux, sleepless nights, and smelly diapers seem like a breeze compared to my upcoming challenges. Though my days are often spent stressing over my impending parenthood doom, Christmas shopping has become a blast this year. As new parents, we were clueless last year around Christmas time. This year, though still clueless, we’re taking the time to enjoy the shopping aspect of Christmas. I’m not sure what I find more enjoyable- the thought of Amaya’s face when she opens her presents, or the sight of my husband’s face in the store as he’s looking it

BARTLETT

over with a wide grin saying, “Honey! Look! This is PERFECT!!!” As for my own Christmas gifts, I’m in the same place I’ve always been. I have no idea what I’d like for Christmas! I’m fortunate enough to have a job that I love, friends that care about me, family that is healthy, a husband that drives me bonkers and a Christmas baby. What more could a person ask for? I’ve been given everything I’ve prayed for. Maybe it’s time to add another to the family? Or maybe I’m losing my mind entirely and my life is all just some strange delusion from all the sleepless nights. Either way, the greatest gifts I could receive for Christmas would be strength and patience. Strength to continue to make the necessary decision to benefit my family and myself and patience to get me through the times that I feel like something’s not happening ‘fast enough.’ My hopes are that everyone else in Lewis Co. can take this time to enjoy Christmas as well, and not dwell so much on the physical gifts. Times spent with those you love is far more memorable than any gift. Out of all the gifts I’ve received, I actually remember a choice few, but I remember decorating the tree, smelling cinnamon throughout the house, playing with my brothers, and watching movies with my parents.

Lewis Co. Sheriff’s Office reports phone scams in the area The Lewis Co. Sheriff’s Office has recently received several reports of attempted telephone scams throughout the county. Concerned citizens have asked the Sheriff’s Office to make everyone aware of these attempts by use of local media. These telephone scams include fraudulent claims that the person has won unclaimed funds from Publisher’s Clearinghouse. In this scam, the caller has identified themselves as a bank president and an FBI agent in the attempt to legitimize the call seeking financial payment through Western Union. A second Lewis Co. resident called to report that someone attempted to identify themselves as a grandchild of the local resident. The caller reported they were incarcerated in the state of Florida and needed

C Y

money to get out of jail. The resident was able to contact their grandchild who was not in the state of Florida. A third scam involved a Lewis Co. resident receiving a post card in the mail that appears legitimate. The post card appears to be from the government seeking to make changes to the Medicare plan. This is fraudulent. Residents are reminded to contact the normal provider for Medicare and to also contact their physician to help assist them. Lewis Co. residents are reminded they should never give any information over the phone unless they have directly contacted the company or person themselves. Please contact your local bank or law enforcement agency before committing to any transaction if you are in any way concerned about it.

LEWIS COUNTY HISTORY

BACKWARD GLANCES From the pages of early Lewis County newspapers 25 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Nov. 12, 1987 Several veterans gather each morning at the Eagles Cafe in LaGrange to have coffee and talk over the events of the world and owner Martha Robinson says they have some very interesting stories to tell. Jim Moon, Earl Hinkle, Stanley Platz, Milton East and Don Sneeden visit together almost every morning. The Little Queen of Rebekah Lodge 14 hosted a birthday celebration for Bessie Hutchesson. Bessie was born Nov. 14, 1894. 45 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Nov, 16, 1967 The little shop stands at 508 Clark Street., buzzing and whirring inside with the sounds of the cobblers trade. Busy though he was, Karl Hachtel found time to visit and reminisce briefly. Karl’s father came over from Germany in 1838. A shoemaker by profession, he taught his son everything there was to know about shoes. “He was the best teacher I could have had,” the cobbler remarked. 50 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Nov. 8, 1962 Monty’s Market, Monticello’s grocery store, was destroyed by fire Sunday afternoon. Firemen from Lewistown, Canton and LaBelle fought the blaze. Living quarters at the back of the wooden structure, occupied by the owners, Mr. and Mrs. Morton Schnitzer, also were destroyed. The entire contents of the grocery store were lost. 75 Years Ago The Press-News Journal Nov. 18, 1937 In honor of his 50 years as a Master Mason, Craft

Lodge No. 287, Canton, at a meeting Monday night presented Henderson Alberty with a solid gold engraved button. Peter Birk is the only other living member so honored. The Lewis County Journal Nov. 17, 1927 School opened Monday after a two day vacation, while teachers were attending teachers meeting, but was closed at noon on account of scarlet fever. Uncle Sam is making new paper money to replace other $5,000,000 in circulation to be replaced by notes of same value but three-fourths the size. Manager W.E. Porter of the Gem Theatre, has announced that after 20 years of business in Lewistown, that his theatre will be closed to the public on Nov. 26. The theatre was opened on Dec. 18, 1907, and it has never closed during that term with the exception of the flu epidemic a few years ago. 95 Years Ago The Lewis County Journal Nov. 25, 1917 Premier Kerensky has been deposed as premier and president of Russia. In a new lightning-like revolution, the Maximalists have gained control of the government, and as a result, Russia may be considered as practically out of the war. The local IOOF Lodge has surrendered their charter some time ago and the building is now under the control of the State Lodge. YMCA work meets with wonderful enthusiasm from people of Lewis County. All parts of the county are subscribing mostly to this worthy cause. Other counties of the district also doing their part well. Monticello subscribes nearly $1,600. Her quota is only set at $500 and at their

first meeting $650 was quickly raised. This reporter was in Canton Saturday afternoon and part of the time Main Street (Fourth) was almost blocked by automobiles. Now as the city fathers were so kind as to provide a place for horse vehicles and banish them from the street, aside from cleanliness one is as much of a nuisance as the other and the streets ought to be kept open anyway. Sunnyside. 105 Years Ago The Lewis County Journal Nov. 22, 1907 D.H. Leslie was repairing the city waterworks (windmill) here Monday. Ewing has one of the most up to date and best equipped general stores in the county. It is the house of quality and quantity. Leach and Guinan are thorough business men and they occupy one of the finest store buildings in the county and can satisfy your wants. Geo. Washburn, one of the best known and most prominent farmers in Knox County, was in Quincy Friday with his wife, shopping and attending to other business matters and when they reached LaBelle that night at 8 o’clock, they were met by friends who told them the bad news that their fine home, located about four miles from town, was burning and would likely be destroyed before they could reach it. A sewing machine was all that was saved. F. E. Hurst, postmaster at Durham, has resigned his position and Oscar Haskins has been appointed in his place. Harry Burgess, who has been practicing law with Senator Dowell at LaBelle for sometime, dissolved partnership with Mr. Dowell last week. William Simpson died suddenly Friday at his home in Canton as result of heart trouble. On account of failing, health,

moved to Canton several years ago, engaging in the frog raising business, which occupation he followed up to the time of his death. 125 Years Ago The Lewis County Journal Nov, 18, 1887 Major Job’s son, a young man nearly of age who lives near Ten Mile, was fatally injured by a runaway team. The new Baptist Church at Kahoka which was destroyed by fire last week, cost all total, near $3,500. It was insured for $2,000. A number of citizens of the western part of the county were in Monticello Tuesday attending a special meeting of the Masonic Lodge here. They tell us that the corn crop up their way is turning out an average of 25 to 30 bushels per acre. Judge Bradshaw, who was among those here, had just cribbed 12 acres that made a little more than 50 bushels to the acre. There is more corn in the county than there was thought to be. This has been a prosperous corn year. When the Grand Encampment IOOF of Missouri met in St. Louis the other day, it was found on examining the election returns, that W.H. Graves was elected to the position of Grand High Priest. But he did not live to see this last honor from the order that he loved so faithfully and well. Mr. Graves had held many positions of honor and trust. He was twice elected collector of revenue of this county; was elected to the position of Grand Master IOOF of Missouri; was elected mayor of Canton last spring; and lastly the position first mentioned. Besides all these he has held many minor positions of usefulness. He will be remembered for what he has done.

BY RITA COX Reporter rita1@lewispnj.com A neglected cemetery has been cleaned up, thanks a descendent of those buried there and Kenneth Rush of LaBelle and four Heartland Bible College students. The Carlin-Fee cemetery located in rural Williamstown, near 187th Ave, northeast of Williamstown, was overgrown so much that most of stones were not visible. Mrs. Joyce Ingram, a descendent of some of the persons buried in the cemetery had inquired about having someone clean up the property over two years ago. She contacted the Press-News Journal for information and requested an ad for someone to do the job. She was put in touch with Kenny Rush of LaBelle. They wanted to contact the owner of the surrounding property to get permission and find out when would be an appropriate time to access the cemetery. They wanted to be sure they did not damage any crops planted around the area. C.B. Keller farms the land, his mother-in-law, Bonnie Leeser, owned the ground.

The cemetery is located over a quarter mile off the road and in the middle of a bean field on a small hill. The countryside is peaceful and quiet. There are many stones, some of which are several feet tall. Many of the stones were placed over one hundred and fifty years ago. Walking through the cemetery was difficult, stones were hidden under overgrown weeds and brush. A few places showed signs of wildflowers blooming, although it looked like no one had visited for several decades. Joyce Ingram wan born and grew up in Cherokee County, Kansas, and her great-great-grandparents are buried in the cemetery, along with other relatives. Her grandfather Daniel Wesley Fee had an older half brother and half sister born in Lewis County, Mo. Her grandpa was born in Clark County as well as four siblings with his four youngest siblings being born in Lewis County. She first learned about the cemetery in 1986. She said in 1968 Robert Meade Fee went to the cemetery and drew a plot map. He sent a copy to her uncle, C.W. Fee. Billy Nic

and Betty Fee took care of the cemetery, installed the fence and cared for it until Bill’s death in 1990. She understands a Clifton who lived in Williamstown also tried to care for it.

LOCAL NEWS Cemetery clean-up continued...

The Carlin-Fee cemetery in rural Williamstown was overgrown so much that many tombstones were hidden in the brush. A descendant of some of those buried in the area, Joyce Ingram, made the effort to have it cleaned up.

Photos by Rita Cox

The Carlin-Fee cemetery during clean up by Kenneth Rush of LaBelle and four Heartland Bible College students. The men cleaned up the neglected cemetery located in rural Williamstown.

Carlin, Sept. 11, 1880, for the purpose of the cemetery. At that time there were 20 unmarked graves in the cemetery. Mrs. Ingram shares some of her family Civil War history in another article in this edition. Rush did some preliminary work, such as cutting a few trees and replacing fence posts. The cemetery was so overgrown, it would take a crew of people to complete the job. Kenny Rush, who works at the Heartland farm, enlisted the help of some of the young men who attend Heartland Bible College,

who were trying to earn money to help with a mission trip to South Dakota. The young men and Mr. Rush worked on the cemetery for a couple of weekends in November. They cleared the trees, uncovered tombstones, burned brush and cleaned up the area. Jeremy Deacon, 22, of Beardstown, Ill., came to the Heartland community a few years ago and is now enrolled in the college. He wants to tell his story of how he came to Heartland. As a child he grew up in an alcoholic environment. As a teen, he realized his

life needed help. He found Heartland by looking in his Dad’s phone. An older brother had sought out Heartland’s help, but only stayed with the program for one day. Somehow his Dad had kept the number, Jeremy was looking through the numbers on his dad’s phone when he came across Heartland’s. Jeremy called after realizing he needed a change. He said he was not a religious person, but he needed a bigger force than himself to change. He went through Heartland’s program. He completed the program and is now in college. He encourages anyone who needs help to reach out. The Heartland program has changed his life and he gladly shares his story so that others in his situation or wanting to change, to tell them there is a way out and people at Heartland will help them. Chris Manning says he was a bad child, who knew it all and was on the wrong path. As sort of a last resort, his parents sent him through the Heartland program. Although he says he thought he would never find God, he is now happy to serve. The program changed his life and after finishing college he hopes to join the Marines. Daniel Pinon came to Heartland Bible College after speaking with a college recruiter. He says he chose Heartland College because he felt it was a calling from God and allows the flame that was burning inside him to burn brighter and be of service to others. He plans to become a policeman. Another student, Lance Bock, helped with the cemetery project, but wasn’t available the day

the other young men were interviewed. The young men all have great attitudes and were working hard on the cemetery clean up and were glad to be helping and also happy to earn money for their mission trip. They all look forward to becoming productive adults and helping others. The mission trip to South Dakota is Dec. 13 to 17. They will be serving food and taking care of native Americans. They are to pour concrete, do drywall and landscaping for the church in that area. They will also bring presents and clothing to the native American children. They were all looking forward to the trip. Heartland has a program called Rent a Student, where someone needing work done can contact the school and students will help with a project to earn money for mission trips. Joyce Ingram is very happy she was able to find

Her laughter & smiles are delightful! Our mom, grandmother, great-grandmother, our friend!

someone to clean up the neglected cemetery that is a link to her family history. She plans to visit Lewis County in the spring and see the completed project and place a sign with the

cemetery’s name on it and hopefully generations to come will be able to locate an ancestor’s final resting place. Joyce Ingram lives in Raytown, Mo., a suburb of Kanas City.

The tombstone of Lieut. John Fee reads of The War of 1861. Sort of unusual because the Civil War is not usually referred to as such. The final resting place of Lt. Fee is at the Carlin-Fee cemetery in Williamstown.

BY RITA COX Reporter rita1@lewispnj.com The tombstone of Lieut. John Fee is now visible at the Carlin-Fee cemetery in Williamstown. (See related article elsewhere in this edition). The impressive stone reads Lieut. John Fee of The War of 1861. Joyce Ingram, a descendent, says that he was her great-grandfather’s youngest brother and she has this information: John Fee was Lieutenant in the Civil War on the Union side. 21st Regiment of Volunteers, Company K Lewis Co. April 3, 1863. Joyce Ingram shared the following Civil War stories about her great grandfather, Daniel Fee as told by his daughter and Ingram’s great aunt, Florence Cruickshank. Daniel Fee was living in Clark County during the war, presumably near the Clark and Lewis County line. He later lived on the northwest corner of the intersection close to Route E. His sister, Jane FeeCarlin lived northwest of the Carlin-Fee cemetery, south of the county line. “He served during the Civil War in the Missouri Enrolled Militia. Grandpa Fee barely escaped death on two different occasions. Once on the road, when he saw mounted confederate soldiers, he hid and they didn’t see him. Again, at a political meeting he narrowly escaped. The countryside was foraged by small groups of confederate soldiers, to support the confederate cause, and there were guerrilla bands, besides the infamous Quantrill. C Y

They stole and butchered cattle and they stole horses. Grandpa had a team of horses stolen during the war, as well as, a pony, which he got back later. Daniel built a hideout on the meadow. He constructed a pen with poles and covered it with slew grass and finished it with prairie hay. It looked like all the other haystacks. One could go in and out at the bottom. He spent some time in this commodious bivouac during those hectic years. He would hide and sleep during the daytime, and slip out at night and do his chores, hoe corn, pull weeds, etc.” A family story involving Ingram’s great-grandmother Elizabeth has been passed down through the generations. “Uncle Homer Fee related a story about how in 1915, Grandma Elizabeth Fee, while sitting in her rocking chair, told the four Fee brothers of an incident which occurred during the Civil War. Early one morning she looked out and in rode forty or more men in gray and they tethered their horses to the fence. They dismounted and the captain ordered her to get them their breakfast. She cleaned off the top of the old cookstove and made pancakes for the men, in a way known now as mass production. The captain questioned grandma, “Where is your husband?” She said, “I don’t know.” He said, “If we find him, what do you want us to do with him, bring him to you or leave him where we find him?” Grandma replied, “Just leave him where you find him.” The Captain turned to his men and said, “Don’t any of M K

you men dare lay a finger on this woman.” Southern chivalry! That confederate officer probably had a praying mother at home. The soldiers searched the place thoroughly for guns or anything worth taking. Aunt Florence Fee Cruickshank told that Grandma had some guns hidden so well the soldiers never found them.”

COMMUNITY NEWS Illinois Conservation Police Graduate Governor Pat Quinn welcomed the newest members of the Illinois Conservation Police at a graduation ceremony in their honor at the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. The 14 recruits completed 24 weeks of intense general law enforcement training and specific conservation police training totaling nearly 1,000 hours to prepare them for their new jobs. “Illinois Conservation Police are among the most diversely trained law enforcement units in all of Illinois, and I am very proud of the hard work and dedication these men and women have already displayed to get here today. I am equally as proud of each and every one of them for serving our country in the armed forces before returning home to protect the Land of Lincoln once again,” said Governor Quinn. The 14 officers (including Aaron Jansen, son of Michael and Rose Marie Jansen of Liberty, Ill., and grandson of Ben. C and Delores Wood of Canton, Mo.) form just the ninth Conservation Police officer (CPO) class in the last 19 years, the first class of new CPOs since 2007, and the first class to be made up entirely of military veterans. “We are thrilled to have these young men and women as a part of the Illinois DNR. Conservation Police are not just vital to protecting our wildlife and other natural resources, but also to protecting and serving the public in ways far beyond outdoor recreation safety and enforcement,” said IDNR Director Marc Miller. Conservation Police officer recruits are first required to attend the Illinois State Police (ISP) Academy for ba-

Blessing Hospital named a 2012 Leapfrog Top Rural Hospital Blessing Hospital has earned a place on The Leapfrog Group’s annual list of Top Rural Hospitals, the first Illinois hospital to ever make the list. The announcement came at Leapfrog’s Annual Meeting in Baltimore, Maryland, on Tuesday, December 4, 2012. The Leapfrog Group is a national nonprofit organization of large purchasers of health care, dedicated to encouraging improvements in the safety, quality, and affordability of health care for Americans. Blessing Hospital was selected as a Top Rural Hospital out of nearly 1,200 hospitals participating in The Leapfrog Group’s annual survey. This year, the Top Rural Hospital list includes a record 13 hospitals. The selection is based on the results of The Leapfrog Group’s annual hospital survey, which measures hospitals’ performance on patient safety and quality, focusing on three critical areas of hospital care: how patients fare, resource use, and management structures in place to prevent errors. The results of the survey are posted on a website (http://www.leapfroggroup.org/cp) open to patients and families, the public, employers, and other purchasers of healthcare.

This is the second honor received by Blessing Hospital from The Leapfrog Group. On November 28, Blessing earned an “A” Hospital Safety Score from Leapfrog. The A score was awarded in the latest update to the Hospital Safety ScoreSM, the A, B, C, D or F scores assigned to U.S. hospitals based on preventable medical errors, injuries accidents, and infections. The Hospital Safety Score was compiled under the guidance of the nation’s leading experts on patient safety and is designed to give the public information they can use to protect themselves and their families. Of 2,620 hospitals nationwide receiving grades, only 791 (30 percent) received an A. In Illinois, of the 118 hospitals given grades, 51 (43 percent) received an A. To see Blessing Hospital’s scores as they compare nationally and locally, visit the Hospital Safety Score website at www.hospitalsafetyscore.org, which also provides information on how the public can protect themselves and loved ones during a hospital stay. People can also check their local hospital’s score on the free mobile app, available at www.hospitalsafetyscore.org.

LOCAL NEWS C-SC Ranked In Top 4 Percent As Nations Most Technologically Connected Campus Culver-Stockton College was ranked by U.S. News and World Report as the 53rd most Connected Campus in the country. Culver-Stockton scored higher than any other school in Missouri, Illinois or Iowa. Of the 1471 schools that submitted connectivity data, CulverStockton’s ranking placed the school in the top four percent of the nation. U.S. News and World Report used four equallyweighted criteria in determining rank: Internet speed, Internet Access, Application of Technol-

ogy and Resources Available. Each category was broken into subcategories, including percentage of dormitory rooms with wireless access and online learning management systems available to students. Online access to resources, such as library materials, and student access to cloud data storage were also accounted for. The data used to determine rank was the same data collected during the spring and summer of 2012, which is primarily used to rank the overall quality of undergradu-

ate programs in the “Best Colleges” rankings. Since, Culver-Stockton has only advanced technologically, nearly doubling the bandwidth speed, increasing from 70 megabits/second to 120 megabits/second. This bandwidth increase was not accounted for in the recent ranking. Staying technologically current is a major focus for Culver-Stockton. The school’s curriculum is technology-based, and professors have been given the task to constantly create new ways to utilize technology in the class-

room. For a listing of the methodology used by U.S. News and World Report to rank schools, go to: w w w. u s n e w s . c o m / education/best-colleges/ articles/2012/11/14/methodology-most-connectedcolleges.

THE"EST 'IFT

know lots of families are facing hard times during this holiday season, and I certainly know what that is like. I was fifty years old when I lost absolutely everything. I was bankrupt and broke, plus I still owed several million dollars that couldnâ€™t be discharged. Officers of the court came and took all my belongings from furniture and dishes to my car. Even worse, I had lost the company I founded, and I had lost my family. Of course, the biggest problem of all was that I had lost out with God years before. That was the root of all my problems, but I couldnâ€™t see that. All I could see was that I had become a total failure. Starting over at my age looked impossible, and I asked God to let me die. When I woke up the next morning and realized He hadnâ€™t done that, I decided to go to work. I couldnâ€™t think of anything else to do, so I got dressed and went out to sell some insurance. For the next eight years, I sold insurance six days a week for the people who had taken over my company. Eventually, by the mercy of God and the help

of tremendous friends, I bought the company back. It was a total miracle, and I knew that. But I didnâ€™t know why God allowed it. I still wasnâ€™t serving Him. Yet He had something much bigger in mind than my life. God was looking ahead to thousands of other people who would find themselves in that same hopeless state. He had a plan to provide them a place where they could get a fresh start in life. A place where they could find a job, a home, and a relationship with Jesus Christ. So many people have found those things at Heartland. As we celebrate this Christmas season, I am so grateful for all God

has done. Those years of struggle were nothing compared to the wonder of seeing lives changed, families restored, and people set right with God. If you are having a tough time this year, weâ€™d like to invite you to come visit us. Have a cup of coffee in the cafĂŠ, take a tour of the dairy, or slip into a seat at one of our church services. Youâ€™ll find someone in all of those places who would be glad to help you out. All you have to do is ask. We pray this will be the year when you get the best Christmas present everâ€”a fresh start in life. - Charlie Sharpe, Pastor Heartland Academy Community Church

Canton boys basketball team stays undefeated

Photos by Maxine Hark

The Canton boys basketball team brought home yet another win after going against Clark Co. High School. The Tigers defeated Clark Co. 59-49, putting their season at 6-0. The Lady Tigers didnâ€™t fare well, losing to Clark Co. 59-38. Pictured left is Brittney Berhorst as she attempts to make a shot and pictured right is Cameron Durst as he tries to steal the ball from opposing Clark Co. team member.

Two C-SC Womenâ€™s Soccer Players Named NAIA Scholar-Athletes The Culver-Stockton College womenâ€™s soccer team had two players recognized as 2012 Daktronics-NAIA Womenâ€™s Soccer Scholar-Athletes by the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. Named to the list were junior defender Alyssa Houska and junior goalkeeper Lina Schiel-Madsen. Houska, a marketing major and digital media art minor from Foristell, Mo., played in 12 games before seeing her season end with an injury. Before her injury, Houska recorded two goals and added an assist for three points. She totaled 11 shots on goal and had one

game-winning goal to her credit. Schiel-Madsen, a mathematics major and history minor from Kvaerndrup, Denmark (Midtfyns HS), appeared in three games for the Wildcats, totaling 79 minutes, 24 seconds. She did not allow a goal on three shots and combined for one shutout. Student-athletes must have a junior or senior academic standing and maintain a minimum cumulative grade-point average of 3.50. Studentathletes who transferred must have been in attendance at an institution for one full year to be eligible.

Wildcat Football Awarded Two Victories The Culver-Stockton College football team received word last week it would be awarded two victories to the 2012 campaign after two of its opponents forfeited victories for using an ineligible player. Culver-Stocktonâ€™s losses to Central Methodist University and to Avila University will now be counted as victories after both schools informed the C-SC administration of the violations. The Wildcats fell to CMU 32-7 on Sept. 22, at Ellison Poulton Stadium, and dropped a 67-29 decision to Avila

in Kansas City in a game that started on Oct. 13 and ended on Oct. 14 due to weather delays. Per NAIA rules, the Wildcats will be awarded 1-0 forfeit victories for each game, but all statistical information from each contest will stand. The Wildcatsâ€™ official record for 2012 will now stand at 3-8 overall and 2-7 in the Heart of America Athletic Conference. The Wildcats are scheduled to open the 2013 campaign at Lindenwood University on Saturday, Aug. 31, in Belleville, Ill.
