DAISY HOLIDAY FAIR COVERAGE: Three of the Daisy Elementary shoppers take time out to pose with Ms. Claus while shopping at the Daisy Holiday Fair.

Mary and Joseph strolled the city streets of Loris last Friday night to greet all those who came into town for the final Friday night of the “Christmas on Main” event.

There was dancing in the streets, music around town, fun for the children and of course, Santa Claus visited WLSC to hear a number of Christmas wishes for local children, and even a few adults, too.

Greg and Morina Martin of Loris gave an accurate portrayal of the parents of Jesus and spend the evening walking around the crowd and taking photos near the manger scene on Railroad Avenue.

“My wife I wanted to do something special to remind people of the true reason for Christmas,” said Greg Martin, stylist at Railroad and Main Salon and also worship leader at Higher Vision Church in Loris. “We were in the middle of a Christmas play at church and came up with the idea to dress as Mary and Joseph for the promotion.”

How does one go from a career in banking to operating a Grade A goat dairy farm, and eventually branching out to include a line of cheeses and specialty soaps?

For Cindy Worley-Howell and her husband, Tim, the call to a more simple way of living was the key to fol-

A recipe is only as good as the right mixture of ingredients, and sometimes one special “secret ingredient” can make all the difference.

For William and Lori Jacobs, those words mean a mixture of faith and family with a chance to provide great food, desserts, and catering to the customers at Loris’ latest diner and bakery, Wil-Lo’s Secret Ingredient.

The family-owned and operated business opened Monday, Dec. 12 and offers an extensive menu, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner six days a week. In addition to their dine-in or take-out menu, the business offers a full service bakery and catering services to their customers.

It didn’t take William Jacobs long once he had the idea to open the restaurant, before the doors actually opened.

“I passed by the place several times back in July of this year and thought

back to the times of growing up, going to the Dairy Maid and the stories told to me by my mom, Phyllis, of going on dates there, and just felt the urges of the Holy Spirit to reopen the landmark that has such a rich history in Loris.” said Jacobs.

“After contacting Mr. Young and reaching an agreement, we starting working on the place just about four weeks ago, and after some long hours painting, deep cleaning and updating a few things, we are ready for business.”

Jacobs made it sound easy, but the truth is he spent several 20-hour days and none less than 16 hours to get the business up and running. Jacobs even missed out on the family Thanksgiving trip to Pittsburgh, Pa., working by himself to be ready for the Dec. 12 opening day.

The business is definitely a family-run operation as his wife Lori, sons, Jeffery Chadwick and 14 year-old Gabriel Jacobs, and their

The staff of Green SeaFloyd’s Middle School didn’t have a hard time putting two and two together when it came to naming GSFMS math teacher Shannon Page as their 2011-12 Teacher of the Year.

The 28-year veteran teacher, in her fourth year at GSFMS, teaches math in grades six through eighth and is no stranger to being recognized for her abilities as an educator. Along with this year’s accolade, Page was named Teacher of the Year at Palmetto Middle School in Mullins in 1997, and honored as the Teacher of the Year for all of Dillon County District One in 2008.

The recognition came as no surprise to many of her fellow teachers at GSFMS.

“Shannon is just a wonderful teacher who always encourages her students to do their best,” said Frieda Varela.

“She works hard to see that all her students’ needs, academic and otherwise, are met. She is always willing to give of her time for her students. She searches for other tools and methods to help her students when all else seems not to be working.”

Page, however, held a different view, filled with praises of her fellow teachers and staff at GSFMS. “I am humbled that my peers felt I was worthy of such an honor,” said Page.

“It is the greatest compliLACY HARDEE / THE LORIS SCENE ment to be chosen by such outstanding educators.”

Worley: From dirt to goat dairy farming FROM A1 and the idea for the Worley Lanes Farms transformation to a small dairy farm was born.

No one tells the story better than Howell herself which she wrote it for the Worley Lane Farms website and Facebook pages.

Here are excerpts: “Like most people who live in the country, we planted vegetable gardens, apple trees, berry bushes, helped Daddy with his cows, and did other little things around the farm. But somehow it wasn’t enough. There was a big piece of the puzzle missing, something else I was supposed to be doing, something that needed to be passed along, taught to my children. But what?”

That ‘but what?’ came by way of a birthday gift planned for their youngest son, Isaac.

With fond memories of her childhood English sheep dog Chum, the couple decided to find one for Isaac. Thanks to research and the National English Shepherd Rescue, the newest member of the Howell family, Dakota, soon joined the family farm.

“Dakota and I immediately been taking long morning walks on the farm while the kids were at school. As we patrolled around the fields, pastures and ponds, I started looking at the land with new eyes and felt a very real sense of belonging” said Howell.

“God used those walks and this young pup to make me realize I wanted this land to remain a working family farm with the inherent traditions and values that my family has held for generations.”

The inspiration from Dakota and his strong herding instincts led Howell to the possibility of having goats, specifically dairy goats and thoughts of a dairy farm.

Howell approached her husband with the idea, who at first was not as “carried away” by the idea. However, a few months later when Howell mentioned the idea again, he agreed that it might be a good idea.

“I am truly blessed with a wonderful husband who supports me and my dreams, even if he doesn’t totally understand my logic,” said Howell.

And the wheels were put

in motion for the start of a dairy farm at Worley Lane Farms.

After a great deal of research about every area of dairy goats, the dairy farm process, and hours of ground work by Howell, the family farm was soon to be transformed into another family business.

“God directed us to an experienced and very gracious “goat lady” in North Carolina. We purchased two freshened goats, or ones who had kidded and were ready to milk, who were purebred LaMancha does.

Under [the woman’s] guidance and patient instruction, our dream or my dream maybe, began to become a reality.”

They now have four Lamancha does, who all have names. Buttercup, Annebelle, Birgitta, and Moondance join Bongo Bo Diddley, a LaMancha buck who makes it all possible, and are well on the way to becoming a first-class Grade A Raw Milk Goat Dairy.

But Howell didn’t stop there, soon learning to use goat milk for other purposes as well.

Howell learned to make a variety of goat cheeses, and relearned the age old processes of making unique scented soaps from the same milk.

This is but a small part of the real story, as the story’s heart lies in the Howell fami-

n

The First Amendment

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

A giant leap backwards for CCU athletics P

olitics. The almighty dollar. An absolute lack of understanding of the words “loyalty” and “respect.”

I could relate the above words to several organizations, schools, and administrations around here, but these are aimed directly at the powers that be at Coastal Carolina University.

I did say that right, didn’t I? Its correct title, I mean.

After all, it is no longer a branch of College of Charleston, nor the University of South Carolina, but a full-fledged university.

The CCU decision was like a slap in the face to coach David Bennett, the only football coach the school has ever known. The man who built the program from nothing – zero – zilch -

into a program most small universities and colleges would be more than to A WRITER’S proud be a part BLOCK of.

Bennett’s program has Lacy Hardee produced five players in Tyler Thigpen, Mike Tolbert, Jerome Simpson, Quinton Teal and Maurice Simpkins who each went on to sign with NFL teams, unheard of for a nine-year old program. This definitely helps at recruiting time, just like

the opportunity for a player to play under Bennett.

Yet he was not allowed the privilege of letting his staff, and more importantly his players, know of the foul plans afoot by the university for their football futures.

Like it or not, Coastal Carolina is still a fledgling football program in comparison to all the other colleges in their division.

My personal knowledge of Bennett showed me a man of his word, a man of character and a man with a deep sense of family and commitment to Jesus Christ and his faith. My kind of coach, especially in today’s world with all the troubles surrounding college programs and their leaders.

All I know is that when I asked Bennett to speak at a

Loris Middle School banquet, he came and brought with him a few ball players to meet our young athletes, and all shared motivating stories. He did this not once but twice, for the Loris community and the kids.

I also know that the entire Coastal football team showed up at my church because Bennett believes that “a team is like a family, and families go to church together.”

Every program in the NCAA goes through up and down seasons. This season, the Chanticleers finished 74, their best record since 2006. Looks like somebody was doing his job.

If the issue is putting people in the seats during football games, then maybe someone should be looking at the people responsible

for that, because that is not a coach’s job.

Is that coincidence?

Maybe the university is to blame. How about an economy where alumni, students and local fans are having to cut back on expenses just to get by?

After all, a day at a college football game can get expensive. Maybe the leadership at Coastal needs to look at ways to draw fans instead of axing coaches.

The way it was done was no less than “bush league” at best. Coastal demonstrates no sense of loyalty, decency, or respect for Bennett, the football team, its coaches or the alumni at CCU. Good luck finding a coach with the knowledge and integrity of Bennett. It won’t be easy.

War is over in Iraq, but at Some very last a tremendous cost to U.S. minute gift ideas...

T

he President made it official last week. The war in Iraq has ended.

The conclusion of U.S. occupation of Iraq is cause for celebration. Certainly, the nation owes a debt of gratitude to the men and women who fought and won the war. They answered the call to duty and served admirably.

Nevertheless, the end of the war leaves an empty feeling in my stomach.

When I read about the 4,800 U.S. soliders killed, the 32,000 injured and the vast amounts of money spent conducting the war, I can’t help but wonder what was really accomplished.

Did we win the hearts and minds of Iraqi citizens?

I doubt it. Everything I see and read indicates that citizens of that Middle Eastern nation hate the U.S. more than ever. Perhaps they have good reason. More than 650,000 Iraqi citizens died over the course of the war.

Did the war give us a strong ally?

Do we have greater access to the Iraq oil fields?

What did we get for the $800 billion spent over the

past nine years conducting war in Iraq?

Before President George Bush sent U.S. EDITOR’S troops into Iraq NOTE I used this column to Steve question the wisRobertson dom of such action.

Today, I’m more convinced than ever that invading Iraq was a huge mistake.

(An even bigger blunder is the war in Afghanistan.)

Even when the final U.S. troops are withdrawn later this year, the meter will continue to run for U.S. taxpayers.

According to economists from Harvard and the University of Columbia, the final tab for the war could reach $4 trillion to $6 trillion when the cost of caring for the injured and the replacement of vehicles, weapons and equipment is

thrown into the equation.

That’s more money than the U.S. spent to fight World War II. It seems to me the U.S. should get something for its efforts. For example, Iraq should give a portion of its profit from oil to the U.S. until the cost of the war is repaid. Germany had to pay reparations after World War II. Why not require the same of Iraq? Don’t hold your breath until that happens.

Despite my misgivings about the wisdom of the war, I am delighted to hear the conflict has officially ended. If nothing else, the unwarranted loss of life and limb has been stanched.

Hopefully some of the billions spent conducting war can be spent correcting the nation’s anemic economy.

The next time the U.S. politicians want to depose an unpopular dictator like Saddam Hussein they should open the history book and read about the fiasco in Iraq.

Yes, the U.S. won this war.

I remain convinced victory came at a price far too steep, making it a rather shallow triumph.

Education can be dangerous What are we teaching our children?

To the editor, My granddaughter, who is in ninth grade, recently had to write a paper titled “The Black Death – How Different were Christian and Muslim Responses?”

She was given 10 biased documents which were supplements to the text book and could only use the documents as references. Her conclusions had to be based on the documents.

She wrote her paper and documented everything not believing anything that she wrote.

I quote her concluding statements. “As it is clearly seen, the responses of Christian Europe and the Muslim world differed greatly. With separate religions and a multitude of locations, both had seemingly different responses.

The Christians saw the plague as a punishment and the Muslims saw it as a blessing. The Christians blamed the Jews while Muslims were tolerant of minorities and the Christians abandoned their faith while the Muslims accepted the fate and became more devout to

LETTER TO THE EDITOR their religion. It is evident how the Christian and Muslim responses to the Black Death were seemingly different through their explanations to the plague, their religious responses and their reactions to their faith.”

My granddaughter did as she was told. She used 10 biased documents and wrote a paper based on those documents all favoring the Muslim religion over the Christian Religion.

Some people state that it doesn’t matter what you read as long as you read everything. There is not time in a life time to read everything and what a waste of time that would be.

My Dean of Education taught us that some books were trash, some were to be tasted and some were to be digested. Our children are precious gifts from God. They are to be carefully taught to follow Godly ways and wise counsel.

Brains are like computers.

If one puts garbage in, one gets garbage out. If one puts golden thoughts in, one gets golden thoughts out. Our children need to be guided

by Christian philosophy and values. Jesus is truly the Way, The Truth, and the Life and no man cometh to the Father except by Him. What does it gain our children if they gain the whole world and lose their own soul?

The State Board of Education decides from which books the schools have to choose. It is important who sits on our State Board of Education and chooses our books. The board usually gives the county at least four choices for the courses taught. Our county is evidently making some poor choices.

The local school board needs to take back their powers and protect our children from this brain washing that is being incorporated into our books through the guise of education.

Education can be a dangerous tool in the hands of the wrong people.

By request, this Column B about what NOT to buy your Sweetie for Christmas is being rerun:

I

f you need some last minute gift ideas for women, here are a few things to keep in mind when you go shopping: 1. Do not buy your sweetheart something “to make her work easier.” If you buy her a vacuum, you may end up sleeping on the carpet.

A blender for a woman is not equal to a nail gun for a man.

2. Do not buy her a gift that’s really for you. For example, a sexy nightgown is not something she’s hoping for. It’s something you’re hoping for.

3. Do not get her something she needs. A gift should be something she doesn’t need, something she just wants, no matter how indulgent or unnecessary you think it is.

4. If you don’t know her size, don’t guess. Look in her closet for something she’s worn in the last three weeks. If you’re still in doubt, don’t get her clothes. Trust me on this…if you buy her something in a size too large, you will not have a happy holiday.

5. In keeping with #1, don’t get her something “for the house.” Picture frames and candle holders and chotchkas are not personal, they’re generic. If it’s something you could get for your secretary, don’t get it for your honey.

6. Jewelry is good.

Earrings, bracelets, necklaces, those all work.

Expensive jewelry works best.

7. A new book by her favorite author, a new CD by her favorite group shows her you’ve been paying attention and know what she likes. Paying attention and knowing

what she likes can only make life better.

8. Do not, and I repeat, do not, especialCOLUMN B ly if she is of a certain Ettie age, buy Newlands her nursing home grab bag gifts such as talcum powder or note cards.

If you didn’t already know this, you need counseling fast.

9. If you must give her something as impersonal as a gift certificate – gulp – make it for extreme pampering. A facial, a pedicure, a massage. Do not give her a gift certificate to a typical retail store. Again, trust me.

10. Romance is the best present. Wisk her away to the place you proposed.

Plan a night out, including getting the babysitter in advance, during the week.

Frame a love letter you’ve saved to hang on the bedroom wall.

11. Unless she’s specifically asked for one, don’t get her a cook book. You can figure that one out for yourself.

12. Don’t get her a gift that she has to wait for, such as something you’ve ordered that hasn’t arrived yet. Women want what they want when they want it. Are you new here?

Women are not as complicated as men think.

They just want to be noticed, loved, appreciated, pampered, indulged, intellectually stimulated and valued, and not necessarily in that order.

You can thank me later.

In the meantime, Merry Christmas.

Teacher: Teaching instilled since childhood FROM A1

LACY HARDEE / THE LORIS SCENE

As shown by her bright smile, GSFMS’s Shannon Page enjoys her career as a math teacher.

Mullins High School, went on to pursue her teaching career by earning her bachelor of science degree in special education and elementary education from Winthrop University. Page has continued her education and honed her craft over her almost three decades in her chosen field.

Page said her teaching philosophy is based on the primary goal to foster learning and instill a love of learning.

“While I believe that all students are capable of learning, I have also concluded that a student’s desire to learn is vitally important. In order to effectively master new concepts and skills, it is imperative for a student to see the need and relevance,” Page said.

“In order to create an atmosphere in my classroom that inspires, I establish relationships with my students, use instructional methods that address various learning styles, and model my own enthusiasm

for learning.”

Inspiration to beome a teacher was noted early in Page’s days as an elementary student.

“As fortune would have it, I have had many great teachers. However, my first grade teacher was the one who set me on this course, said Page.

“She made me love learning and I wanted to be able to do that for others.”

Page lives near her parents, back on the family farm in Marion County and is the mother a 21 year-old son, Joby.

It is all about Him. He paid the price I

t has always been all about Him. God. Not me, nor you, nor anyone but Him. Not just at Christmas, but for all time.

When we fully recognize this, not only do our lives change, but also the lives of others will change. The world around us will change.

Today’s society is in no way wired to this type of thinking. In the words of former NBA all-star David Robinson, we live in a “mecentric” world.

A world designed to tell us that it is all about us. A world where marriages are rocked simply because the partners are focused on their own personal happiness, instead of each other’s happiness.

Many successful people are often ruined by their own successes, believing they don’t need anyone else’s input. When we

believe that life is all about us and our happiness, our troubles have no choice but to be magniLAYMAN’S fied.

The LINES Bible is filled with scores of Lacy Hardee men and women who struggled with the ‘all about me complex.’

King David, Job, and even Moses suffered from it.

However, when they turned to God and realized His purpose was greater than any they might have, they began to live lives of commitment and purpose.

Living a “God-centric”

lifestyle allowed them to live life to the fullest, accomplishing more than they ever dreamed, free of the worry and anxiety of failure.

I definitely fall into this category. How about you?

I often am so concerned about my own happiness, what others think of me, and feel what I have to say or what I do is more important than what others are going through or what they have to say. Often times most of my worries and concerns stem from how it affects me. Me, me, me.

My recent birthday and this upcoming Christmas season, along with the urgings of the Holy Spirit, led to me realize nothing is more important than what Christ has done in my life.

And more importantly, that my life is not about me, but all about what I am called as a believer to do for Him.

2 Corinthians 3: 12-18 says we are merely mirrors that reflect God’s spirit to the world.

“With this hope in our hearts we are quite frank and open in our ministry.

We are not like Moses, who veiled his face to prevent the Israelites from seeing its fading glory. But it was their minds really which were blinded, for even today when the old agreement is read to them there is still a veil over their minds— though the veil has actually been lifted by Christ.

“Yes, alas, even to this day there is still a veil over their hearts when the writings of Moses are read. Yet if they “turned to the Lord” the veil would disappear.

For the Lord to whom they could turn is the spirit of the new agreement, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, men’s souls are set free. But all of us who are

Christmas joyfulness

Christians have no veils on our faces, but reflect like mirrors the glory of the Lord. We are transfigured by the Spirit of the Lord in ever-increasing splendor into his own image.”

When we put our focus and our energies into the service of God and seek to live a life that mirrors His, we will be relieved of the “me complex” and the worries and anxieties that come along with it.

Are we willing to change the world, one person at a time, simply by sharing that everything in life is all about Him, because of Him, and most all, ends with Him? This season, and everyday, may we focus on the One Who it is really all about, Jesus Christ. His gift is free.

He paid the price. He’s coming back. It’s all about Him…

BY KEN LEE FOR THE LORIS SCENE

And the angel said unto them, “Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.” (Luke 2:10) The shepherds felt joyful when they heard the good news of Christ’s birth from the angels; they immediately went to Bethlehem to see the child.

Upon seeing the Savior, they returned home praising and glorifying God. The righteous man, Simeon, who had waited long for the consolation of Israel, was also joyful as he held the baby in his arms and blessed God. Christ’s mother, Mary, said a lengthy prayer that praised God. Each of these were joyful for Christ.

Years later, after Jesus was grown, he was walking through town when a sinner named Zaccheus climbed a tree to see him. Jesus saw him and said, “Zaccheus, make haste, and come down; for today I must abide at thy house.” (Luke 19:5).

Zaccheus received Jesus into his heart and went home with joy.

Christ is a risen Savior who freed us from sin and allows us to enter the joy of our Father in Heaven. He was born for our salvation, and he gives us happiness as a friend who is always with us.

Dear Father in Heaven, It was for joy Jesus was born to take away sin. Thank You for freeing me of sin to have joy on earth. Amen.

Prayer Request

Faces of Christmas; Faces of 2011

BY LARRY DEEDS FOR THE LORIS SCENE

Someone once coined the phrase that the eyes are the “windows of the soul.”

Looking at someone’s face can often give us an inclination of what that person is thinking or feeling. Think back 2000 years and gaze on the faces at that very first Christmas.

See the innkeeper, often the “villain” of Christmas (and I think we’re usually too hard on him) as he ponders his options: shouldn’t I have added more rooms when I heard of the census; why wouldn’t one of my guests give up their room for this needy couple. Was there more I could do?

There’s Joseph, at first grim faced as his young, bethrothed Mary gives birth to a son, not in a home or even an inn, but in a stable. Then see his eyes glitter and his mouth turn into a smile as he glimpses the arrival of the Baby.

And don’t miss young Mary, perhaps as young as 13, certainly no older than a mid-teen. See her face contort in pain as the labor contractions force her Son into the world. Then as the miracle of birth occurs, see the look of motherly love chase the pain from her eyes. See the tears flow as she looks on that little red, squealing Child in her arms. See the look of wonderment and contentment in her as she cleans Him up and prepares to provide His first human nourishment and nestle Him on her arms.

Then look at the Baby, certainly the center of attention (the center of eternity). He enters the world in a flood of water and blood; the warmth of His mother gives way to the cold of the stable. His nose catches the not-so-aromatic scent of animals and all that is associated with

their “home.”

His first sensations are painful; His first emotion is fear. His first sound is a screeching wail that awakens all of the stable “residents” (and maybe some of those sleeping in the inn nearby).

Then see His face give way to other feelings as He senses the warmth and love of mother, ingests her milk, and takes His first Bethlehem sleep.

Out in the countryside, the angelic choir exudes pride and privilege as they herald His birth: “good news to all mankind,” “a Savior who is Christ the Lord;” “glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, goodwill”.

And the shepherds stare in fear and amazement at that glorious announcement, look quizzically at each other as they ponder what to do, and then gaze in awe at the young mother and her Holy Infant.

Such were the faces of that first Christmas. Now fast-forward to December 2011. Last week our church’s AWANA group entered a float in the Conway Christmas parade.

As we slowly made our way down the parade route, I couldn’t help but notice the faces in the crowd.

There were many children, mostly smiling, waving, sharing the sights and sounds with siblings and parents.

Some were eagerly enjoying the candy they received.

But some, too many, were somber and sad-faced young people, much too young to look that sad at Christmas.

And I wondered at what brought tears to their eyes and down-turned lips: some probably hadn’t had anything for breakfast, maybe nothing to eat the day before.

Others may have been ill, hurt, or had recently lost loved ones. Some were victims of abuse and neglect.

And the adults showed a variety of countenances too.

Many of them smiled and waved, shouting “Merry Christmas” but too many also showed hurt, concern, worry.

A father who just lost his job.

A family about to lose their home. A young mother who just heard the “cancer” diagnosis. Some abused, some neglected, too many feeling unloved and unwanted.

And I pondered too, asking how many of even the smiling faces were masking inward agony.

How they need to look at that remarkable face of Christmas. Not the Baby in the manger, not the Man on the cross. But the risen and victorious Jesus Christ, King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

And at this festive time of year (which for all too many is a time of fear, need, depression and dismay) let us listen to His words.

He spoke to Nicodemus: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have ever lasting life.” (John 3:16) “Whosoever?” That’s you and me!

Hear Him promise: “Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened down and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28) A promise to all who will receive Him. Listen as He tells us what He told His disciples on the night before His death: “Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Your heart must not be fearful or troubled.” (John 14:27) And finally look into His face and eyes of compassion as He tells us, “Let not your heart be troubled; believe in God believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many dwelling places…I go to prepare a place for you…I will come back and receive you to Myself that where I am, you may be also…I am the

SENIOR SPOTLIGHT Jared Myers

Army chaplain future for LHS senior

A military career for a young man or woman these days is not a bad idea, and Loris High School senior Jared Myers has his eyes set on a higher calling within its ranks. That of an Army chaplain.

Myers, the son of Jesse and Josephine Gore, has coupled his love of the military life and his strong spiritual beliefs, serving them both with the same passion.

The same led him to become a battalion commander of the Loris High School ROTC “No Slack” Battalion.

Apparently, Myers also

Jared Myers

has that something special that his peers recognize, as he was selected president of the 2011-12 LHS senior class.

Myers’ other talents show him to be well-rounded as he sits first chair Alto saxophone in the LHS symphonic band, and participates as a two-sport athlete for the Lions football and basketball teams.

Myers professes a love of watching both sports, on the college and professional level as well.

Myers is extremely proud of his family and his hometown and believes in the city of Loris.

“I do believe that great things can and will come

out of the City of Loris, and I make it my business to go outside the box and do outstanding things,” said Myers.

“I live each day by the motto, ‘Have no regrets.’

“So, I live my life to the fullest so that I can come out on top because I AM Loris.”

DADDYDAUGHTER SKATE NIGHT

LHS art society students learn the art of glassblowing

BY HEATHER GALE FOR THE LORIS SCENE

Lauren Rose has always been interested in the process of glass blowing, but had never gotten the chance to see it up close.

“This is the first time I have taken part in a project like this,” the Loris High school art student said. “I definitely think it is interesting and it is a great experience.”

More than 18 students from the Loris High School National Art Honor Society took a trip to Conway Friday to take a class in glass blowing at Pop’s Glass and make their own Christmas ornament.

Amber Harrelson, another art student from Loris High, said she couldn’t wait to get down to the studio to make her ornament.

“It is so cool and I am glad we get to learn how to work with glass and I was very excited to come,” she said.

Ed and Barbara Streeter, owners of Pop’s Glass, run the classes at their studio in Downtown Conway.

The couple has been working together for many years and creating great pieces of art through glass blowing.

To make the ornament, Mr. Streeter explains to the students how the 1,200 degree furnace keeps the glass melted and that heating and cooling are keys to the process.

First, Mr. Streeter takes a dollop of glass from the furnace, starts to shape it, heats it again in another oven, adds color using minerals and then manipulates the glass by rotating it and blowing it.

The students were able to blow the glass while Mr. Streeter did the rest.

Mrs. Streeter said her husband teaches more than 50 classes per week.

“From October to December, we see more than 600 students from all over the country who are interested in glass blowing,” she said. “Just a few weeks ago, we had a couple who flew in from California. It is great to see so many people interested in glass blowing.”

Jen Pierce, visual arts teacher at Loris High, said she is glad the students got to participate in the glass blowing class.

“It is a fascinating concept and we want to make sure we expose the students to all kinds of art mediums,” she said. “We can’t do glass blowing in the classroom so I am glad there are places like Pop’s Glass that do classes so we can enjoy it and learn about it.”

Stephanie Harrelson, another art student from Loris High, said she had no idea how much went into glass blowing.

“It is such an interesting process,” she said. “I don’t think I would want to do this as a career, but it is a possibility. I am just excited for the experience and thankful we got to come down here.”

Emily Vail, another art teacher at Loris High, said the students love to explore different art forms and the local artist community.

“There is only so much we can do in the classroom and they need to know there is an art community out there in the local area,” she said. “We want to make sure the students know they don’t have to leave the area to be an artist, we have a great art community right here.”

Streeter said the biggest draw to the glass blowing class for people is making their own ornament.

“People enjoy doing things with their hands and creating

gifts that they made themselves,” she said.

Anyone ages 5 and up is invited to take a glass blowing class at Pop’s Glass. Classes are $25 per person. Pop’s Glass is located at 209 Laurel St. in Conway. Call 248-3558.

A new round of classes starts in February.

MONEYMATTERS Daisy Elementary has Holiday Fair Budget time for this important read.

and visit from Mr. and Mrs. Clause

BY BRADLEY BLANTON FOR THE LORIS SCENE

The Daisy Elementary School PTO recently held a Christmas Holiday Fair. It was a place where the students of all ages were able to purchase gifts for their family and friends without Mom and Dad “knowing” what they were getting.

The holiday sale was an assortment of goodies ranging from just a quarter to more than 10 dollars. The sale had everything the big chain stores have around this time including hot chocolate and donuts for the browsers and free gift wrapping for the ones purchasing goods. They even had a visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus.

Pictures with them were also available. It was open from the start of school until around 7 p.m. during this past week.

As parents, we usually

hear the words “I want” so much this time of year that it drives us crazy. We finally realize that no matter what kids want today it will be different tomorrow. Having the pleasure of working at the fair, I realized that if we as parents will slow down, our kids can really be savvy shoppers as well as thoughtful givers.

With the variety of goodies at a wide range of prices, it was awesome to see kids look for just the right gift for their parents.

A little girl came to buy something for her parents but didn’t have a lot of money, so I showed her the items that were in her price range and the different combinations that she could put together. I began to watch her as she picked up every little piece and examined it closely, thinking intently on whether this or that was special enough for her parents at

home. Seeing she was having a hard time, I proceeded to see if I could be of any assistance and she informed me that she was looking for the perfect gift. We talked about her parents and she informed me quickly that she wanted the best gift. After a little more time, she finally decided what the perfect gift was and glowed as she proceeded to pay for it with her money. With her inquisitiveness and patience she showed me that she knew it wasn’t about what you give but the thought you put into it. It was an awesome lesson we all could learn from.

Special Thanks to the Daisy Elementary PTO and staff, all the volunteers that helped and to all the teachers and bus drivers that helped ensure that the perfect gift met the perfect parent. May everyone have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Buying new electronics this season? Don’t trash the old ones

VICTORIA MORGAN / THE LORIS SCENE

Work is never done City of Loris employees worked Sunday afternoon and into the late evening to repair a break in the city water line near the Loris First Baptist Church.

BY LACY HARDEE FOR THE LORIS SCENE

Dec. 20, 1961: Industry Appears Near After Meeting with SBA Officials: Loris was standing oh-soclose to having a half-million a year industrial payroll Tuesday and indications were it should soon be a reality. On Monday Mance Watkins, a member of the board of directors of the Loris Industrial Developers, Inc., and Marion Smith, accountant, conferred with Regional officials of the Small Business Administration in Richmond regarding a $60,000 loan to construct a 20,000 square foot industrial plant here.

Dec. 22, 1971: Senator Strom Thurmond will visit Here on January 14th: Joe Cecil Stanley, President of the Loris Merchants Association, announced this week that South Carolina’s Senior statesman, Senator Strom Thurmond, would be the guest speaker at the Association’s Annual Ladie’s Night and Installation Banquet here on January 14. Stanley said that an outstanding turnout is expected for the banquet, and urged all merchants and others planning to attend to make arrangements to be present. He stated that invitations would be mailed out in the next few days.

Dec. 23, 1981: Rural Fire Protection Takes Effect Jan. 1: Rural fire protection for the residents outside the city limits of Loris will go into effect on Jan. 1, 1982 which leaves only a few days to sign up for the contracts. The ordinance adopted by the Loris City Council as well as fire officials make it clear that beginning Jan. 1, no fire calls will be made outside the city limits of Loris unless that person has contracted with the city for fire protection. Officials stated there would be absolutely no exceptions to this rule.

Dec. 11, 1991: Graham’s Host Finland Student: David and Marian Graham of Loris have welcomed a new face into their

home. Marika Pussinen, of Finland, is visiting the United States for a year on a student Foreign Exchange Program. During Marika’s stay in Loris she is an 11th grader at Loris High School.

Her parents are both educators; one is a teacher and the other a school principal.

Even her parents are visiting another country on an education exchange program in Africa. Her three younger sisters are also in Africa.

Electronics are once again dominating holiday shopping lists this season. In fact, analysts with the Consumer Electronics Association predict shoppers will spend six percent more on electronics this year compared to last – or about $250 per consumer.

And for every new laptop, tablet, phone, TV, gaming system and scores of other gadgets, an outdated device likely will be replaced.

For those old electronics, the question is, “Now what?”

First off, do not throw replaced electronics in the trash. Electronic devices are comprised of a range of toxic components that can be harmful to human health and the environment if discarded in the same waste stream as the rest of your household garbage. Trashed electronics, or “e-waste,” contain heavy metals such as lead, mercury and cadmium, which can leach out of landfills and into groundwater or nearby waterways.

The good news is that there are several alternatives for disposing of your e-waste, including reuse and recycling.

One ideal method that is in keeping with the holiday spirit is to find a local community electronics recycling fund-raiser to properly dispose of your outdated electronics while helping to raise funds for a local organization.

With the current economic climate most nonprofits, schools and other organizations are experiencing harder times. Not only will recy-

cling benefit an organization in need, but the environment as well by diverting the e-waste from the landfill.

Another option is to look into electronics take-back programs. Many electronics retailers, like Best Buy or Staples, will accept your ewaste for free or a small handling fee, regardless of brand or condition. Several manufacturers, too, will take back retired products, although these take-back programs vary in terms of fees and conditions.

A quick internet search of your local electronics retailer

or manufacturers’ recycling policy will provide instructions for their take-back process.

Many waste management divisions also have electronics recycling programs, though opportunities differ in size and scope.

Be sure to clear the electronic device of personal data.

This holiday season when you are making room for your new electronic devices, remember there are plenty of homes for your old ones, but the garbage is not one of them.

Just In Time!
