Motorists feel Spike at the pump If you drive your car to vacation spots Memorial Day weekend you will pay more for gas. Gas prices jumped 12 cents over the past 14 days, and six-cents since last Monday, landing the national average at $2.93 – the highest price point going into the Memorial Day weekend since 2014. The spike has been felt in the Carolinas as well. North Carolina’s $2.76 average today is 10 cents higher over the last two weeks and six cents higher than just a week ago. South Carolina’s $2.63 is
eight cents higher over the last two weeks and up six cents on the week. “Although prices are 55 cents higher for North Carolinians and 58 cents higher for South Carolinians this year compared to last Memorial Day, we are still expecting over 1.8 million Carolinians to travel this holiday weekend,” said Tiffany Wright AAA Carolinas spokesperson. “Motorists will feel the spike at the pump, but higher prices won’t keep them from celebrating Memorial Day weekend with a road trip.”

TODAY’S QUOTE:
With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts. –Eleanor Roosevelt
Pieces of Kings Mountain History On May 2nd, the Kings Mountain National Military LORETTA Park anCOZART nounced on their Facebook Page, “Starting today, the U.S. Monument will be cleaned and repointed; also, the bronze plaques will be removed and re-waxed-they will be unavailable for viewing during this time.” I’ve never seen the U.S. Monument scaffolded before, so I was intrigued. It stands to reason that the monuments and markers in the park need cleaning from time-to-time. Everything needs maintenance and attention to keep them in good order. The more I thought about it, the more I realized I didn’t know a much about the U.S. Monument’s history. The United States Monument at Kings Mountain was established by Congressional Act (34 Statutes at Large
286) on June 16, 1906, to honor the men who fought at the Battle of Kings Mountain. The New York firm of McKim, Mead & White was selected to design the monument. They were well known for large projects in New York City, Brooklyn, Washington, D.C., and West Point, NY. According to the Kings Mountain National Military Park’s “Historic Resource Studay” published in 1995, “The United States Monument is important for its association with a nationally renowned firm, McKim, Mead & White, and for the careful attention to proportions, traditional form, materials, and the restrained use of ornament that give the monument strength and grandeur, characteristics not found in the typical over-decorated monuments of the period. “The design is based on McKim’s Saint Marys Canal Memorial Obelisk and may have been completed as early as 1907. Because of McKim’s

Looking back Looking back from the Thursday, May 26, 1994 edition of The Kings Mountain Herald A preliminary 1994-95 budget by Interim city manager Maxine Parsons will call for an 8 percent hike in the water and sewer rate and a four-cent raise in ad valorem property taxes. The budget will also call for no cost of living raises for the city’s 160 employees and no merit raises. In a recent work session, county slashed $500,000 from the budget, including the elimination of 20 full time positions which had been recommended in the budget. Department heads recommended that the vacancies not be filled. Although condemnation procedures are underway
by the city to build a road over a man’s property at Moss Lake, Interim Manager Maxine Parsons said the city is in the middle of a family property dispute that probably won’t be settled for years.

driving in heavy traffic, do we act differently with children in the car than when we are alone? Outwardly, most of us have been conditioned not to lose our cool with people around. Yet when we are alone or when we examine ourselves internally, patience is noticeably absent. Real patience is a direct result of God’s Spirit in us. Therefore, let us not study how to be more patient; instead of let us learn to give control of our lives to God. “The more we do that, the more we will see God’s character come alive in us. Patience isn’t something we develop; it is something God develops in us as he takes over” (Miller). But patience is more than something we need in traffic jams or waiting in a doctor’s office. Patience is something that sustains us while we wait for God’s will to be revealed. Patience reminds us that God’s timing is not our timing. Patience is a quiet confidence in God’s promised provision.
In Psalm 40 we are reminded to wait on the Lord. “I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord.” Today, you may be in the slimy pit. Take heart. Trust in the Lord and yield to God’s view of your circumstances in light of his eternal perspective. To be sure, God has demonstrated incredible patience and grace with us. I conclude by asking, What demands in our lives require great patience? How do we reflect God’s patience to those with whom we live and work? I pray that we surrender our agenda and move forward trusting God and according to his timetable.
The 74th Homecoming celebration of Dixon Presbyterian Church will be held Sunday. Superior Court Judge Jesse Caldwell of Gastonia will fill the pulpit at the 11 o’clock worship service. Lunch will be spread in the church fellowship hall (the Dixon Schoolhouse) across the road at 1 p.m. The church was organized in the school house in 1944 under the direction of the late Dr. P. D. Patrick and First Presbyterian church. The new church building was dedicated June 26, 1949. In recent years the congregation has renovated extensively the former Dixon Schoolhouse, retaining the original stage and auditorium area and adding a new kitchen, and two bathrooms. The schoolhouse was formerly the home of two families, the late Buddy Sellers and the late Delbert Jackson. “We welcome everyone to join us in this celebration,’’ said Pastor Randy Patterson.

getting ready for the Fourth of July. Indeed, in April, their garden explodes in dramatic colors that no fireworks show could duplicate. It happened again last month. Although early April may be the garden’s most stunning time, the sisters made sure there was something in almost every season to bring visitors back. In the warm summer time, for instance, Bernice told me, “We try new things.” She explained how they experimented with different annuals to try to find the right combination of colors, ones that their visitors would find pleasant. After their 90th birthday, the twins, Bernice’s daughters, and neighbors and friends began thinking about how wonderful it would be if they could live to celebrate their 100th. It did not seem possible, especially after Bernice fell and broke her hip. But she recovered and Barbara was doing well. Their 100th was extra special. Family and friends from all over the country gathered to bask in the glory of their generous spirit. There was a traffic jam on Gimghoul notwithstanding all the preparation that went into the event. I remember asking the twins, “Why would you two work so hard all these years making a garden so pleasant and so open just for the enjoyment of whoever wants to come?” Barbara answered smiling almost matter of factly, “That’s easy. As long as we have the garden, we’ll never be lonely.” They were never lonely. They taught us how to live. And how to die. “The Garden is Open.” Note: a UNC-TV Our State video of my visit to the sisters’s garden is available at: https://www.youtube. com/watch?v=yEz7KgRcyw0

St. Mathews Lutheran Church confirms ten new members on Pentecost Sunday. Photo by Robert Wilson
St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church Confirms Ten New Members By ROBERT WILSON Last Sunday, churches around the world celebrated Pentecost Sunday. This particular Sunday is often referred to as the “birthday” of the Christian Church, because it is on this day that the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples in the Upper Room and drove them out into the world to fulfill Jesus’ command to go into all the world preaching the Good News. A handful of men and women were filled with the Holy Spirit, and they changed the world forever. As a part of this celebration, many churches baptize or confirm members on this Sunday. At St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church, ten new members were added to the church on this Sunday. What is unique about this particular event, however, is that it was ten young people who became members. After a lengthy pro-
cess (a little over a year), the youth finished their confirmation classes and took ownership of their faith journey. In the Lutheran tradition, we baptize infants. At that time, parents and members of the church make promises to raise these children in the Christian faith. We baptize them. Then, when these children come of an age where they can take accountability for their faith, we confirm them by asking them to publicly profess their faith and renew their baptismal vows. During this process, these young people stand before the congregation and profess their faith in Jesus, and they make a promise to follow Him and to serve Him by serving others. After they renew their baptismal vows (the same vows their parents made for them years earlier), these children are then prayed over by the pastor and their parents, and
the church receives them as full members of the Christian Church — in our case, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Once these youngsters have been confirmed, they have full membership in our church. What is unique to this particular celebration is the quantity of young people confirmed. St. Matthew’s last confirmed one member in 2010, nearly eight years ago. To have ten members confirmed this year was an amazing milestone in our congregation’s life. We are proud of these young men and women who have decided to begin their faith journey, and we are happy to be making disciples for Jesus. As we continue to grow the church, we also encourage our young people to be a vital part of our congregation and the community here in Kings Mountain.

KM’s third straight championship year ends with fourth round loss at Cox Mill

Kings Mountain High’s women’s soccer team bowed out of the NCHSAA 3A playoffs Friday night with a 7-2 loss to Concord Cox Mill, the same team that eliminated the Lady Mountaineers last year. This year it was in the Western semi-finals, one step farther than the KM team made it last season. Kings Mountain ended its season with an 18-5-1 record with their best year since 2009 when they won the Western Regional championship before falling to White Oak in the state 3A championship game. Cox Mill was in control throughout the game, building a 2-0 halftime lead and then pulling away in the second half. The Lady Chargers led 3-0 before Kings Mountain finally dented the scoreboard on Lindsay Deaver’s goal The hostesses quickly put the game on ice, though, building a 7-1 lead before freshman Emma Goff tallied KM’s final goal with 13 minutes remaining. Although the Lady Mountaineers lost, they
have much to be proud of. This year they won their third straight conference championship and during that time they were undefeated with back-to-back championships in the South Mountain Athletic Conference (2016 and 2017) and claiming the Big South crown this season. The Lady Mountaineers won the SMAC in 2015-16 with a 16-0 conference and 19-3-1 overall record, and repeated in 2016-17 with a 16-0 conference and 21-3 overall mark. A mid-season tie with Stuart Cramer was the only thing that kept them from beating all of their conference opponents for three years in a row. Kings Mountain knocked off previously undefeated and #3 seed South Iredell 3-2 in overtime in a third round playoff game Tuesday night at Troutman, avenging an early season non-conference loss. The teams were scoreless after regulation and went into the first overtime, but a quick goal by Cassidy Calhoun put the Lady Mountaineers in control. See SOCCER, Page 4B

Athletes will be able to do many different drills, including blocking sleds, on artificial turf that runs the entire width of the east side of the weight room.
Page 3B
There will be 16 weight stations, eight on each side of the weight room.
KM’s renovated weight room should be open by next week The Kings Mountain Touchdown Club’s $200,000-plus renovation of the KMHS weight room should be completed by the end of this week or early next week, according to David Brinkley, Touchdown Club president. When finished, the weight room will be the finest high school weight room in the state of North Carolina and better than many colleges. The project ran into a minor roadblock recently when it was discovered that the roof was leaking, so that expense of $23,000 will be added to the original estimate and could run the price to around $250,000. “The school system had it in its plans to repair the leaks but it would be two to three years down the road,” Brinkley said. The KMTD board voted to bear the extra expense rather than put $200,000 worth of weight equipment in jeopardy of rusting. Roofer and former KMHS athlete Bryan Leftwich offered to replace the roof at his cost which is $8,000 less than the lowest bid. The new flooring, which includes Mountaineer logos at what will be 16
Mountaineer logos will be on all 16 weight stations. weight stations – eight on each side - as well as artificial turf along one end of the building where athletes can work with on various drills, was completed last week. “We had to have buckets in there last week to catch the leaking rain water,” Brinkley noted. “The floor is rubber so it can be mopped up but we wouldn’t want water around weightlifting equipment which could rust.” The new weight equipment will not only improve KM athletes’ performances in their respective sport, but also cut the amount of time in the weight room because more people will be able to workout at the same time. All sports – men and women – will use the equipment. “You can have 16 drills
going at the same time,” noted Brinkley. “You can do more in 30 to 40 minutes than you used to in three hours. The equipment is very sophisticated. You can do all of your exercises at every station when you used to work one at a time.” Brinkley said the equipment is also designed to prevent injuries to core muscles. The weight training equipment was scheduled to be delivered yesterday, and if everything goes well it should be installed by Friday, Brinkley said. If not, it will be early next week. “Everybody’s going to be very proud of this building,” he said. “The athletes are really excited about it. They’ve seen what it’s done for athletes in other places.”
The new trophy room at the David and Marie Brinkley Field House at Kings Mountain High School will be finished within the next few days. The room will house championship trophies as well as other historical memorabilia from Mountaineer history.

Calhoun capitalized on the free kick to give the Lady Mountaineers a 1-0 lead. Calhoun scored again early in the second overtime off an assist from Lindsey Deaver to put the
Lady Mountaineers up 2-0. South Iredell answered just a few seconds later to cut the margin to 2-1. Kings Mountain answered when Deaver was taken down in the box and hit the penalty shot that put the Lady Mountaineers up 3-1. The Vikings ended their season with a 20-1-1 record.

SUBSTITUTE TRUSTEE’S NOTICE OF FORECLOSURE SALE OF REAL PROPERTY THIS ACTION BROUGHT PURSUANT TO THE POWER AND AUTHORITY contained within that certain Deed of Trust executed and delivered by Donald Lee Searcy and Maude S. Searcy dated January 25, 2008 and recorded on January 30, 2008 in Book 1543 at Page 878 in the Office of the Register of Deeds of Cleveland County, North Carolina. As a result of a default in the obligations contained within the Promissory Note and Deed of Trust and the failure to carry out and perform the stipulations and agreements contained therein, the holder of the indebtedness secured by said Deed of Trust made demand to have the default cured, which was not met. Therefore, the undersigned Substitute Trustee will place for sale that parcel of land, including improvements thereon, situated, lying and being in the City of Lawndale, County of Cleveland, State of North Carolina, and being more particularly described in the heretofore referenced Deed of Trust. Said sale will be a public auction, to the highest bidder for cash, at the usual place of sale at the Cleveland County Courthouse, Shelby, North Carolina on June 6, 2018 at 11:30 AM. Address of property: 218 Cline Street, Lawndale, NC 28090. Tax Parcel ID: 34789. Present Record Owners: The Heirs of Donald L. Searcy. The terms of the sale are that the real property herein before described will be sold for cash to the highest bidder. A deposit of five percent (5%) of the amount of the bid or Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($750.00), whichever is greater, is required and must be tendered in the form of certified funds at the time of the sale. The successful bidder will be required to pay revenue stamps on the Trustee’s Deed, any Land Transfer Tax, and costs for recording the Trustee’s Deed. The real property hereinabove described is being offered for sale “AS IS, WHERE IS” and will be sold subject to all superior liens, unpaid taxes, special assessments, and other encumbrances.
Other conditions will be announced at the sale. The sale will be held open for ten (10) days for upset bids, as by law required. The sale will not confirm until there have been ten (10) consecutive days with no upset bids having been filed. If for any reason the Trustee is unable to convey title to this property, or if the sale is set aside, the sole remedy of the purchaser is the return of the bid deposit. Furthermore, if the validity of the sale is challenged by any party, the Trustee, in its sole discretion, if it believes the challenge to have merit, may declare the sale to be void and return the bid deposit. In either event, the purchaser will have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee’s attorney, or the Trustee. Additional Notice Required for Residential Real Property with Less Than Fifteen (15) Rental Units: An order for possession of the property may be issued pursuant to G.S. 45-21.29 in favor of the purchaser and against the party or parties in possession by the clerk of superior court of the county in which the property is sold. Any person who occupies the property pursuant to a rental agreement entered into or renewed on or after October 1, 2007, may, after receiving the notice of sale, terminate the rental agreement by providing written notice of termination to the landlord, to be effective on a date stated in the notice that is at least 10 days, but no more than 90 days, after the sale date contained in the notice of sale, provided that the mortgagor has not cured the default at the time the tenant provides the notice of termination. Upon termination of a rental agreement, the tenant is liable for rent due under the rental agreement prorated to the effective date of the termination.

The Good When we work together, great things happen. Like the creation of Levine Children’s Hospital, ranked as one of the best in the country for pediatric cardiology and heart surgery by US News & World Report. A transplant program comes to life, with survival and rejection rates that beat national averages by 10%. Clinical quality improvement measures, like the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Program (ERAS), deliver improved patient safety, better outcomes and cost savings, and draw international recognition. Orthopedic pain control protocols improve patient care and help prevent opioid abuse.
The Bad Despite 37 years of collaboration, Atrium Health ended our relationship – putting profits over people.
The Ugly On July 1, surgeons in Atrium facilities will be paired with an entirely new group of anesthesiologists they have never worked with before.
Atrium Health and Southeast Anesthesiology Consultants built one of the highest quality anesthesia programs in the country, one that took years to develop and refine. Why is Atrium dismantling such a successful partnership?
