The chili with the most votes will be declared the 2014 Best Chili Winner’ and receive $150. Cash prizes will also be handed out to the second ($100) and third place ($75) winners.”

Eales also noted that, this community has some fantastic chili makers – now is the time to put their reputations on the line and let the local residents judge who actually makes the best chili!

The contest begins with set-up at 11:45 a.m., and chili will be judged until 1:30 p.m., with the winner announced immediately after the closing of the event. Chili will not be cooked on site but will be made prior and brought to the contest. In case of rain the contest

The Joys of Boys

Dedication... I think if you look the word Dedication up in the dictionary you will see a picture of Briar Hancock.

Briar was hurt at the Mark Twain varsity football game. He has a splinter fracture of the tibia and a tear in his MCL. After his injury, Briar refused to leave the field and go to the hospital until the team had completed the game - so he could stay with is teammates.

Briar, in his brace and on crutches, was at the varsity game, as one of the team captain, meeting with his teammates and the other team captains and the referees at the center of the football field at the North Shelby game.

He is expected to return to the field in three to four weeks and rejoin the team as a major force in the middle of the defense.

Dedication - he is a prime example of the reason we have youth athletics and what it teaches our young people.

Social skills - The social aspect of sports might be what entices our youth to play in the first place.

Sports participation enables our youth to spend time with friends in a safe environment and obtain social skills that are likely to last a lifetime. Competitive skills - Although there is such a thing as being too competitive, it’s important for our youth to understand the positive aspects of competition. Adults are surrounded by competi-

I have said before that I grew up in a house where the girls outnumbered the boys. There were six of us girls including my mom and only three boys including my dad. My brothers were far apart in age so that also made a difference. They did not hang out with each other so I did not see all the escapades I now witness when you get a group of two or more boys together. They seem to behave one way when they are by themselves yet quite another way when they are in a group. What one boy doesn’t think of the other sure will. There are some things about boys I will never understand like: *Why do boys get such a big kick out of bodily noises? It never gets old to them the sound of a loud burp or the sound coming

tion, from getting a job to moving up in the work force, and when children learn the basics of competition early, they have a better chance of succeeding.

Sports participation helps our youth cope with competition in a friendly environment.

Sportsmanship - Sportsmanlike behavior is a lesson that our youth obtain from playing sports. Youth learn to positively handle both the winning and losing aspect of playing a sport, and good sportsmanship is a trait that carries over from childhood to adulthood.

Leadership abilities Achieving leadership skills is a life lesson learned when youth participate in sports. Obtaining leadership qualities that range from being a good character, to respecting others, to being task oriented can be accomplished in both team and individual sports.

A solid support system, such as a strong parental involvement and effective coaching can help mold our youth into being a leader now, and later in life.

MY TURN Gripe Gripe Gripe

We have become as Americans very fond of criticism and expressing our negative feelings and opinions about almost everything. Due to the social media available to us, it has become a whole lot easier to do. Before this we had to write out or at least outline our gripes before we sent them or said them. This involved at least some period of time to perhaps think about whether our profound statements were fair, logical or relevant.

We have apparently taken a more load, fire and their vim approach recently.

In a same week’s news there are three examples of what my own reasoned gripe is about.

First, there is criticism of President Obama who was on vacation at Martha’s Vineyard when news broke of the horrible beheading of journalist James Foley. After the President issued his strong statement about that incident, he resumed his vacation. He was then criticized for being seen golfing instead of whatever his constant critics thought he should do at that time. The continuing criticism and making fun of Mr. Obama in the social media is becoming like a one liner told over and over hoping someone will laugh.

Second, we had an unfortunate event in St. Louis where a man with a knife confronts the po-

lice, advances on two officers with a knife yelling “Shoot me”, and is shot dead by the cops. The critics jumped on this, claiming the man should have been subdued with a taser or shot in the leg or arm.

Turns out the man was mentally ill which could not be determined in that instant. But criticism of police officers defending themselves against an armed attack with deadly force is a no-brainer for most of us and a death wish for changing present policy to act as they did.

An arm or leg shot at an advancing armed person is a chance not only to risk your life or your partner’s life, but a chance to hit bystanders.

Last, the critics have jumped on the ice bucket challenge. This is where you video yourself pouring ice water on yourself, upload the footage online and challenge folks you know to do the same or send a $100 donation to combat ALS. Well the critics point out that ALS is rare, only about 5,600 new cases each year in the U.S. They also point out that no one has come close to a cure in 30 years and that all that money raised ($90 million so far) should go to many other worthy charities. It doesn’t stop there. Those who take the cold dousing are called showoffs and cheapskates since the ice bath is the alternative to Continue to page 5

from the other end. They never tire of trying to out do the other one. Whose is louder? Whose is longer? Who can do it the most times? Now I know these bodily functions are a part of every person’s life even us girls but do boys have to make such a production out of it? And if so can there at least be places that are off limits like the dinner table? *Why do boys like to compare exaggerated war stories? One morning I was walking toward the kitchen when I heard my three boys at the kitchen table talking. One was saying, “Oh you think that

breaking point and they will push and push just enough but not too much.

They like to see how far they can take it without getting in trouble.

I have learned that I am not going to understand all the inner and outer workings of my boys and that is okay. But I have also learned that my boys can take my breath away with their respect and love for me. They hold the door for me, carry the groceries in, and give me great bear hugs. They think I am the most beautiful mom around and they appreciate the things I do for them. I feel honored and blessed to be a part of training them up to be awesome men of God who will treat women like they deserve to be treated.

I went into the kitchen and asked my son when he stepped on a nail and if he was alright. My son smiled a big smile and said, “Mom, it wasn’t really a nail.” And then after more probing I found out most of the facts were fabricated except the fact that one of them really did trip and scratch his leg. *Why do boys like to push the limits especially those of their mothers?

One vehicle accident claims life of local youth

A local Paris resident was killed when his truck crashed off Mo. 15, at about 3:50 a.m., Sunday, September 7, two miles north of Paris.

The crash was not discovered until about 9:40 a.m.

Adam P. Beabout, 20, was pronounced dead at the scene at 10:20 a.m. Sunday by Monroe County Coroner Jim Reinhard.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported Beabout was driving a 2011 Nissan pickup truck north when it failed to negotiate a curve, went into a skid, ran off the east of side of the road, became airborne, struck a tree and overturned. It is unknown if Beabout was wearing a seat belt, police said.

Assisting at the scene were the Monroe County Sheriff ’s Department, Monroe County Ambulance and Paris Fire Department.

The Paris FFA Trap team competed at the Missouri Youth Sport Shooting Alliance Fall Classic at Linn Creek (Lake of the Ozarks) last weekend. In the FFA division the Paris A team took third place breaking 461 out of 500 total birds.

After each school had shot their 1st 500 birds, Paris was tied for 3rd and had to have a shoot off against Community R-6, each of the five boys shot in the shoot off and after the 1st shoot off the two schools were still tied.

In the second tiebreaker (teams shooting from the 22 yard line) Paris edged Community by four birds to take home 3rd in State!

So there we are, subject to easy criticism for taking a break, even a working break, for doing what we had to do on a dangerous job or for even trying to have some fun for a very good cause. My gripe is that we have way too many gripes with not much reason to be griping.

Greetings from Faith Walk Ministries – Bishop Harold G. Long, Pastor Morning worship service began at 10:30 a.m.

Break Every Chain-sung by Faith Walk choir Prayer led by Min. Fugate Scripture read by Eld. Sandra Enyard Amazing-sung by Faith Walk Choir Offering directed by Min. Kelly Ballenger Grateful – sung by Faith walk Choir Bishop Long’s message was entitled: “God’s Desire”Luke 22:14-15 The key word in this message is “desire” Webster defines desire: to long for, or have a longing for, conscious impulse toward something that promises enjoyment or satisfaction in its attainment. Our lives are controlled by desires sometimes too predictable ends and sometimes to unpredictable ends. Desire is a God given emotion that each of us possess that always desired the right thing or things and human connections until man disobeyed God in the Garden by persuasion.

Each one of us some time or another have wished that we had not desired certain things, because of the outcome that came from those desires. James 4:1 where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in our members? James 6: 14 but each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. James 15. Then when the desire is conceived it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

What about the right kind of desires what are the outcomes? Psalms 34: 12 “who is man who desire life, and love may days, that he may see good”. Isaiah 26:8 “Yes, in the ways of your judgments, O Lord we have waited for you; the desire of our souls is for your name and for the remembrance of You. Isaiah 9. “With my soul I have desired you in the night, yes by the spirit within me I will seek you early; for when your judgments are in the earth; the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. The text “It is absolutely important for us to know what the desire of God is in regard to us.

Jerimiah 29:11 “For I know the thought I think toward you, says the Lord. Thought of peace and not of evil to give you a future and a hope.

Everyone is welcome to come and worship with us!

Weekly service is times: Tuesday at 7 p.m. Thursday at 7 p.m., and Sunday at 10:30 a.m., and 7 p.m. God bless you.

The message this week was titled ‘Experiences of Justification’ and came from Romans 5:1-5. God forgives the sins of those who believe His Word and place their trust in Jesus Christ’s finished work on the Cross. This is called justification and opens a whole new world to the believer.

Christians should never treat their justification lightly.

Paul tells us that Abraham was justified by faith in the Old Testament. Abraham’s faith was not perfect but continued to grow through his experiences with God. Abraham’s faith grew until he trusted God to revive Isaac on the altar.

I hope your faith is still growing today because it is faith that brings peace with God. Knowing God has forgiven your sins takes care of our past and allows us to move forward today. Peace with God does not keep believers from the pains in life but gives us the perspective that we can be victorious in them with Christ.

Faith also introduces us to God’s grace. God’s grace takes care of the present. Grace is a place for believers to stand in, not just to stand for. Standing for grace means you believe in it but standing in grace means you live in grace.

Grace will touch every area of your life if you let it. Standing in grace allows you to let Jesus lead your life instead of you being the one in charge.

Justification by faith rejoices in the hope of God’s glory and this takes care of our future. Knowing the character and integrity of God, believers can rejoice about going to their eternal home. Paul also says to rejoice in tribulations in life. God is always watching our lives and caring for us to our benefit. Hard times in life are better just knowing that God is on our side. There are tribulations for Jesus that the believer is to go through for the glory of God. Tribulations bring growth in patience; build an experienced proven character with God, and shows that the believer’s hope is in God. Understanding justification and the affects it is to have on the believer allows the believer to know without a doubt that God will never disappoint. God may not be on the believer’s timing or give what is wanted but God will always provide what is needed. This not only is to the benefit of the believer but it gives God the glory through both His actions and the believers.

iffs. He explained that in the past some sheriffs ad only served one term of office where as now sheriffs had a tendency to last for a few terms of office.

“This is going to be a nice book,” noted Sheriff Hoffman.

According to its literature, publishing in October 2014 the book will explore the roots of the office of sheriff - the only law enforcement office in the state directly accountable to the people it serves. The book will highlight events and notorious criminals that made history in Missouri and it will remember former sheriffs who served; and its well thought out combination of photos and writing will truly provide readers a unique glimpse into this historic office.

Currently if purchased before the end of September the cost of the book is $59.95 with free shipping and handling. Regular pricing is $69.95 with the associated shipping and handling. ““This book is going to be an integral part of Missouri history,” said Sheriff Hoffman. “You not only have our county but information about every county in the state.”

Sheriff Hoffman noted that the book can be ordered online at www. missourisheriffhistorybook.com or by calling 573-529-6900.

The 11” x 8.5” hardback coffee table book, according to the Monroe County Sheriff makes a great gift for holidays, birthdays and just because.

The Paris Coyotes (21), with a 55-6 win over North Shelby Raiders, returned to the win column.

Paris marched up and down the field with ease as they amassed 512 yards of offense – 208 yards through the air and 304 yards on the ground.

Slater Stone started the onslaught of points with a running touchdown.

Stone received the handoff from quarterback Kyle Popkes drifted right and then cut back against the defense for a three yard score. Breck Hancock kicked the extra point and Paris led 7-0 with over 99 minutes left in the first period.

After Stone’s score the game went into a long lightening delay as storms approached the field.

After the delay, QB Popkes lifted a rainbow 27 yards to Freshman Brett Miller for another Coyotes score. Hancock added his second extra point and the Coyotes led 14-0 with less than 8 minutes off the clock in first quarter action.

After another defensive stop behind the double digit tackles of Jacob Wolfe and Breck Hancock, Popkes lifted a pass to Stone who took the rock and outraced his defender for an 8 yard score.

Hancock remained perfect in the kicking department and Paris led 21-0

with 3 minutes left in the first quarter.

With only seconds left in the first period Slater Stone raced down the sidelines and Popkes hit him in the hands for a perfect strike and Stone raced 53 yards to the house. Hancock hit his fourth kick and at the half Paris led 28-0.

Laine Forrest hit the scoring column in the middle of the second quarter with a run around left end – 34 yards later the scoreboard lit up with more Coyote points. The kick was no good and Paris led 34-0.

With 2 minutes left in the half Popkes tossed a perfect 61 yard rainbow that instead of a pot of gold fell into Laine Forrest’s hands and a Coyote score. Tucker Gruber powered behind blockers for the two point conversion and a Paris 42-0 lead.

North Shelby finally cracked the scoring column in the final period with a 10 yard pass.

The second half was all Tucker Gruber as he rumbled for a 5 yard score and then bit off 6a1 yards of real estate for another score. Gruber had scored another touchdown but the long run was called back for a holding penalty before he hit the 61 yarder. Hancock added a kick for the final 55-6 score.

The Coyote scoring

attack was the definition of balanced – four passing, four rushing scores.

Quarterback Kyle Popkes hit an effective 8 of 12 tosses for his 208 yards.

Slater Stone led all receivers with five catches for 107 yards. Tucker Gruber hit the century mark on the ground with 132 yards in just 11 carries.

around great game versus North Shelby,” said Coach Mike Fible. “The girls came out relaxed and ready to play from the start. It was a great team win everyone picking each other up when things did not go well. Offensively the entire lineup hit the ball extremely well, we did not have a strikeout. Defensively Abbie Wheelan made a great play on a very hard hit in the left center gap in the 5th inning to end North Shelby’s rally. The biggest highlight of the night was freshman Drew Lockhart she went 3-3 with 1 HBP, 3 runs, 1 double, 3 RBIs and a walk off homerun in the bottom of the fifth inning.”

FARM SAFETY AND HEALTH

Patience saves lives during harvest

A simple, inexpensive sign and a few extra minutes save lives during harvest time.

The slow-moving vehicle (SMV) emblem, a reflective orange triangle bordered with red, is the cheapest safety device in the farm store. But it’s also one of the best ways to remind drivers to share the road with farmers during the upcoming harvest season, says Todd Lorenz, University of Missouri Extension agronomy specialist.

National Farm Safety and Health Week, Sept.

21-27, is a good time to talk about driving safety on Missouri’s rural roads, Lorenz said.

Farms and farm equipment have grown much larger since rural roads were engineered decades ago. Unmarked intersections and rail crossings on narrow, winding blacktops and gravel roads create dangerous situations for farmers moving equipment from field to field.

Lorenz offers these safety tips for motorists: • Slow down and be patient.

• Be alert and be alive.

Put cellphones away.

• Don’t pass farm equipment without clear visibility and ample time.

• Beware of tractors making turns. This requires extra room.

• Be aware that tractor cabs and grain trucks may have blind spots and the driver’s hearing may be impaired by the cab and sound of equipment.

• Be on the lookout for family members who might be driving supplies or food to the fields on an ATV. MU Extension safety specialist Karen Funkenbusch offers guidelines for farmers: • Use SMV signs on all farm equipment.

• Plan travel to avoid high traffic times.

• Travel after daybreak and before dark.

• Use hand turn signs.

• Install wide mirrors to see traffic and be aware of blind spots.

• If possible, have someone follow or precede you to alert drivers.

• Be aware of drowsiness. Stop for a lunch break.

• If traffic is piling up behind you, pull over to road shoulders, if available.

• Turn your radio down when approaching intersections and rail crossings.

Look and listen.

• Be sure that all appropriate signal lights are installed and working, including headlights.

For more information, contact your local MU Extension center or Funkenbusch at 800-995-8503.

The Missouri state statute for SMV emblems can be found at http://on.mo. gov/1qmh29I. For more farm safety information, go to http:// farmsafety.mo.gov/.

Rural Roadway Safety is something that all drivers need to be concerned with.

Today’s busy lifestyles seem to have people on the road and in a hurry to get at super-highway speed, but America’s rural roadways are not equipped for that speed and therefore present several safety hazards to contend with.

Roads that were engineered decades ago can be narrow and winding, constructed of gravel, and have unguarded intersec-

tions and railroad crossings. On rural roads, drivers will find large farm equipment moving slowly from field to field and taking up a large portion of roadway.

People can be distracted from the primary responsibility of driving while texting or using hand-held and wireless phones, operating laptop computers, or visiting with passengers in the vehicle. Taking the attention of the driver off the roadway and diverting it to other items is dangerous on four lane roadways, and it can be deadly on the rural roads.

Farm equipment needs to be checked on a regular basis to ensure that all lighting and markings are

in working order and visible to the motoring public. Farm equipment operators need to take heed when making left turns into fields and farmsteads.

Farm operators should also use turn signals when a tractor or combine is so equipped and use hand signals for older equipment. Operators of farm equipment should always look behind before attempting a left-hand turn to be certain no vehicles are trying to pass them.

The motoring public needs to be aware that farm machinery will turn left into fields or farmsteads and to drive defensively when attempting to pass farm equipment.
