Safe Driving Week helps identify accident dangers

Most days, drivers of commercial trucks and passenger vehicles travel safely, but the unsafe and aggressive driving behaviors of a few results in unnecessary danger.

That was the point of Operation Safe Driver Week – between October 14-20 – drivers of big trucks and passenger vehicles need to respect each other, pay attention and avoid unsafe behavior that could result in a crash.

During Homecoming Week the students at Paris R-II Schools, under the guidance of organizing teacher David Freitag, held numerous activities including trivia contests and a seat belt check before school one day Missouri law enforcement agencies paid special attention to commercial vehicle drivers’ compliance with safety regulations. They will also watch for unsafe and aggressive driving behaviors by both passenger and commercial drivers on highways and local roads.

“No matter how large a vehicle they operate, a driver’s first responsibility is to operate safely,” said Jan Skouby, MoDOT Motor Carrier Services director.

“But defensive drivers go a step further. They look at the traffic

around them and ask – are those drivers paying attention? If not, pay more attention to them. Can they see you? If not, be sure to make yourself visible.”

Commercial vehicle drivers urge those who drive smaller vehicles to take extra care driving around trucks.

“Truck drivers watch traffic

carefully – for your safety. A big truck can’t make the same sudden moves and stops as a car and the blind spots are much larger,” said Skouby. “In a situation that pits a car versus a large truck, truckers know the car is likely to get the worst of it.”

Safety experts suggest a few Continued to page 11

According to Monroe County Clerk Sandra Francis team voting will be provided prior to the Tuesday, Nov. 6, General Election.

Anyone who is shut in and unable to go to the polls may request the “Absentee Team” to visit them in their home or they may contact the County Clerk’s Office to be placed on the permanent disabled list.

Fair Enough

Monroe County Appeal, Paris, Mo. • monroecountyappeal.com

Monroe County

S

As we wait for the next Presidential Debate for the benefit of the few Americans that have not yet made up their minds, it might be a good time to talk about what is fair. Part of the argument about which direction our country will take has to do with what each side considers to be fair.

There is general agreement that everyone should do their fair share and be rewarded in roughly that same proportion. In theory at least those that do more should receive more. When the subject is taxes, many conservatives rely on this concept to consider those who do not pay taxes to be free loaders who should not be on or feel that they are entitled to government benefits. This, of course, is the 47 percent of Americans, who for various reasons and circumstances do not pay taxes as so inelegantly was pointed out by Mr. Romney.

Then there is fairness as it applies to what we can call the “fair share” for everybody. This has translated into two very different concepts. For most of us it does not mean that an equal distribution of resources is ideal or that government should be in the business of redistribution of wealth. But it can mean a justification for a graduated tax system where those with higher incomes pay a higher percentage of taxes. The flip side of this is that there should be no extra penalty for success, that other kinds of taxes are already paid by the wealthy and it is not fair to have to pay more for their success.

When we think of fairness we also think about fair rules and equal access to the same opportunities that other Americans have. The demonstrable increasing distance between the haves and have nots and the shrinking middle class are evidence that this equal access or “fair shot” for all may not take place on its own. Attempts to level the playing field are deemed necessary and fair on one side and create a sense of entitlement says the other. But is it fair to complain about attempts to create equality of outcomes until we can be sure of equality of opportunities?

We can agree that something in all of this is not right or fair. But until we can come a lot closer together on what we agree is fair, compromise on economic issues will be very difficult and the American Dream wishful thinking for most of us.

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor, The question of conscience, is a very serious concern which Christians face each time that they vote, especially where their vote will affect the issues of abortion, hunger, war and fairness for the less fortunate.

The Old Testament reading we received Sunday was from Amos 5:6-7, 10-15. The Gospel reading was from Mark 10:17-22. Amos deals with how the poor were taken advantage of by the wealthy. The Gospel of Mark deals with a man who thought he had kept the Ten Commandments, but found out he loved his possessions more than eternal life.

Both Scripture readings make me uneasy, but we are granted mercy and protection through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The poor have been so demonized in this country that their plight is never even brought up in the debates. It seems that only what benefits the wealthy and middle class are of concern in this election.

A family needs to make $50,000 a year to even be considered part of the middle class. If food stamps would have been cut from the Farm Bill, there is no doubt in my mind that a Farm Bill would have passed.

Congress wants to eliminate Medicare for all practical purposes for any one younger than 54 years old. It also wants to eliminate Medicaid for the working poor and send them to a hospital emergency room for their health care.

This country always seems to have plenty of funds for wars and rumors of war, but the funds for health care, and the basic needs of food and shelter for the less fortunate are always in short supply.

Just Ask Dave...

by David Eales Publisher/Editor appeal@parismo.net Change - Part II! Here we go again talking about change but this time you actually have the change in your hands. As you can visually see this week the Monroe County Appeal has changed in size from a 13 inch by 21 inch newspaper to a 10. 3 inch by 21 inch newspaper.

David Eales The change has a three fold reason.

The first reason is fiscal. It has just reached a point where it is fiscally impossible for us to maintain the newspaper at its previous size. The cost of printing and postage has skyrocketed in just the past two years. The paper had planned to originally downsize two years ago after receiving a letter from our printers about a price increase. After much discussion and thought it was decided to absorb the cost and keep the paper at the same size. Unfortunately, the time has come to downsize. The cost can no longer be absorbed by the company. The cost of printing and other associated costs coupled with the rising price of postage has made this decision for us.

The second reason is continuity. All other sister papers in the company are this size giving us consistency and flexibility.

The third reason is customer service. This new size allows us to give our advertisers better choices, our readers a quality product and gives us the ability to keep our cost as low as possible for both advertisers and subscribers.

On Thursday, Oct. 18, the Monroe County Appeal in concert with the Paris Area Chamber of Commerce is hosting a Meet the Candidates for District 40 candidates Paul Quinn and Jim Hansen. Also on hand will be Monroe County Eastern District Commissioner Mike Whelan and candidate David Trainor. Come meet the candidates.

Refreshments will be served. Everyone is welcome!

Have a great week!

Just a Thought

by Lisa Talton

Don’t Throw in the Towel

I don’t know about you other parents out there but there are many a days when I question if I can make it as a parent especially through the teenage years.

My oldest hasn’t even been a teenager for a year and I am already struggling with all the changes in her behavior. And without my permission she seems to have enlisted in a teen club that I very much disapprove of some of the requirements. Maybe some of you have teenagers who have also joined this club. Let me give you some of the rules or guidelines I have noticed.

First one is you must have and keep your room as messy as possible. Then if by some chance you do as your mother or father asks and clean it, make sure you shove all your dirty clothes and other various items in your closet, under your bed or in any other place as it is not in the right place. For example, if you have any trash lying around do not throw it in the trash can. Oh no!! That would make too much sense. Instead be creative and think outside the box. Designate one of your dresser drawers as your new trash can or better yet just throw it on the top of the dresser and see how much can pile up.

Also if you have clean clothes that are laying on the floor from the last time your mom did laundry, do not attempt to hang them up or refold them and put them in your dresser but instead put them back in the dirty clothes so your mom can give them double wash.

Second one is you must not respond the first you are asked to do something by your parents. Instead wait until they have ask you at least two times more and then to make things even better respond with a “Huh” or “What”. Then when you do go to do the thing they asked you to do make sure you groan, stomp or do something that makes it very

apparent you are not happy about having to do what they asked.

Third rule is your emotions must be like a roller coaster. Do not display a good mood for too long but instead let that mood go from good to bad in ten seconds or less. Don’t let them (parents) see it coming.

Keep them on their toes. Just when things seem to be going good make sure you switch it up so things do not become dull. And make sure you do not leave or give any clues to what might be possibly going on that could have caused the foul mood.

Fourth one is make sure you blame your parents for EVERY single thing going wrong in your life. Whether they won’t get you on the latest and greatest tech item, shoes, clothes, etc. and now you’re the only one who have doesn’t have it. Or they won’t let you go everywhere and anywhere you want and now you are socially scarred. Remember they are the root of the problem.

And last but not least-If you do start getting along with your parents make sure it doesn’t last too long so they don’t expect that type of behavior too often.

(Now, of course I beefed this up a bit but raising kids can be very trying. It takes a lot of time, commitment, love and whole lot of GOD to do what we need to do as parents for the sake of our children. We are expected to raise our children in the way they should go and even though we have time we would like to just tell them to go we need to hang in there and believe things will work out. Our children need us. They need us to love them and just be there for them especially through the hard times. So remember in those trying times that there is light at the end of the tunnel and what we are doing is going to make a lasting impression so let’s try and make it a good one but most importantly a Godly one.)

House fires are the number-one disaster threat to homeowners. Between 350,000 and 400,000 house fires occur each year in the United States. Unlike natural disasters such as tornadoes and floods, house fires are often preventable.

Avoid the sun. Flammable products such as paint thinner and lacquer can be ignited by heat sources around your home—even by sunlight streaming through a window. Always keep flammable products in a cool, dark place and in their original containers.

Control candles. Keep lit candles away from materials that could easily catch fire, such as curtains. Never light candles when you’re feeling drowsy—accidentally falling asleep plays a role in 12 percent of all candle fires. Opt for battery-operated candles if you want a little bedtime glow.

Enjoy your fireplace safely. The National Fire Protection Association recommends making sure your fireplace has a sturdy screen to prevent sparks from flying into the room. Also, allow fireplace and wood/pellet/ coal stove ashes to cool before disposing in a metal container.

Keep your stove company. Never leave the kitchen when you have food cooking on the stove. If you must leave the kitchen for any reason, remove the pan from the heat and turn the burner off.

Care for your cords. Electrical cords can produce heat, so make sure they have room to “breathe.” Never trap them tightly between a piece of furniture and the wall or run them under a rug. Check the condition of cords regularly. Frayed wires or those damaged by pets are potential fire starters.

Holliday Christian Church Pastor David Holmes

Services at Holliday Christian Church were opened with the piano prelude by Sally Blakemore. Reverend Holmes welcomed all in attendance, including special guests, Cynthia Grider and Dianne VanPraag.

Paris Christian Church will host a roast beef dinner with all the trimmings on Sunday, Oct. 21, with serving beginning at noon. The quarterly hymn sing will be hosted by Madison Christian Church on Sunday evening, Nov. 4.

Happy birthday wishes were for Derek Vanlandingham.

The opening hymn, “All Creatures of our God and King”, was attempted and was followed by prayer and “Gloria Patri”.

Prayer concerns were expressed for: Opal Johnston, Don Williams and Bob Gerry.

Singing of the prayer hymn, “Be Still My Soul” was followed by pastoral prayer and unison recital of the Lord’s Prayer.

“Take Time to Be Holy” was the communion hymn sung as elders, Sandy Callison and Carole Roberts, went forward to serve at the Lord’s Table. Diaconate was Jane Akers and Zelmajo Ragsdale. Following sharing of communion, offerings and pastoral offertory prayer, singing of the doxology closed the communion service.

Reverend Holmes’ morning message referred to scripture from Mark 10:17-31 and was entitled “Unexpected Answers”. The closing hymn, “More Love to Thee”, was sung and was followed by prayer and singing of the “Spirit Song”.

Immediately following services, Gerald Roberts called the monthly congregational meeting to order. Mary McMorris, Secretary, read minutes of the September meeting which were approved as read. Jane Akers gave the monthly financial report as well as a preliminary report from the Harvest Dinner, quilt raffle and sale of services. Sally asked for suggestions to improve the services sale. The meeting was adjourned on motion by Ryan Ragsdale and second by his grandpa, Jerry.

Following a time of fellowship and refreshments, Jim McMorris opened Bible Study with prayer. A reading entitled, “Should I Really Join Facebook?” was shared by Diane Wilson. Study of the Book of Mark began with review of Mark 1:1-34.

Santa Fe Christian Church

Pastor Kenny Sharp

For the next few weeks, Pastor Kenny Sharp will be giving a series of sermons on “Hell”. Through scripture, he will be explaining what hell is, where it is, and what goes on there.

Sunday’s scripture explained what it is, 1) a literal place prepared for Satan and his angels (Matthew 25:41), 2) a place of everlasting punishment and eternal death (Matthew 25:46), 3) a place of darkness (Matthew 25: 30), 4) a place you can’t get out of once you are there (Psalm 50:22 and Psalm 140:10), and 5)a place of continuous sorrow (Psalm 32:10). Pastor Kenny closed this series with scripture of fire and torment.

Prayers were requested for James A. Booth, Sara Watson, Tally Kendrick’s family, Carla Holmes, Don Laird, family of Arthur Johnson, Bill Miller, Donny Williams, and Evert Kendrick. Praises were shared by Charlie and Joyce Horstmeier for the birth of their new granddaughter, Jill Wiseman’s husband getting a good health report, Kathy Laird attending a spirit filled women’s retreat, Mindy Briscoe’s White Coat Ceremony, Tonya Knight’s surgery being completed last week, and for Aquilla Sterling.

South Fork Presbyterian

Pastor John Grimmett

The Sunday, Oct. 14, services at South Fork Presbyterian church began with Patti Grimmett playing “I Love To Tell The Story” on the piano followed by Pastor John Grimmett leading in song to “How Great Thou Art”, “The Name of Jesus”, “Make Me a Channel of Blessing” and “Take the Name of Jesus With You” and all praying the Unison Prayer and the Responsive Reading from Isaiah 40.

Prayer was held for Billie Cearley; Isaac Simpson; Amanda Grimmett; and those who will be traveling this coming week; a thank you from the Thornhill’s and all welcome to a hayride, bonfire and wiener roast at the Grimmett Farm on Sunday, Oct. 21, at 3:30 p.m., with all saying the Lord’s Prayer.

Pastor John played guitar as he and Patti sang.

The message “Delayed Arrival” was based on scripture from 2 Peter: 3 where Peter tells us of the last commandment from the Lord, Love one another and follow Him. Where is the promise of His coming”. A new heaven and a new earth!

All things will pass away and a new home for the righteous, a place to be at peace with Jesus. A struggling of power with the holy spirit and the powers of the world - we know everything through modern technology around the world, but no one knows the coming of the Lord. There is a vast group of people who believe in nothing. Peter wrote the scoffers will come - there is a delay in His coming for a reason. He is waiting for everyone to come to repentance and believe.

God is waiting! Go therefore and make disciples! We need to be doing something while we are waiting on the coming of Christ Jesus.

Max Tilt led the offertory as Patti played “Jesus Is the Sweetest Name I Know” and all sang the “Doxology”.

All retired in fellowship as Patti played “Shine Jesus, Shine”.

Services are held every Sunday at 9 a.m., and all are welcome to attend to hear the word of the Lord.

To Him be glory both now and forever. Amen. 2 Peter 3:18

Mt. Airy Baptist Church Pastor Robt. Cavanaugh On Sunday, Oct. 14, church services began with the pastor giving an opening prayer. Regular church meetings of the week were announced and all were encouraged to attend.

Announcements included New Heir is performing next Sunday morning at the church. A community prayer service is planned for Thursday, Oct. 25, at the Paris City Auditorium, at 7 p.m. The Sunday School Attendance Drive has started with high attendance day on Sunday, Oct. 28. A wiener roast and hay ride is planned for Saturday, Oct. 27, at 5:30 p.m.

This week’s message was titled “Loving Responses” and came from Luke 17:11-19. Jesus traveled into Samaria, a place Jews would not go and while Jesus was there He healed ten lepers. We need to be like Jesus and go into the sinful world to bring the love of Jesus to sinners. Only one sinner came back to thank Jesus for changing his life. The other nine simply returned to their old life in the world.

The tenth man stopped to give glory to God before returning to the world. This shows his life was changed spiritually and not just physically. Jesus said his ‘faith had made him whole’. Whole in this context means saved. Those who have faith in Jesus will thank and praise Him for His interaction in our lives.

From the FRONT

FBLA... Continued from the front Friends and Neighbors

President Gruber and Secretary Rae Graupman gave the oath of office to all members.

“FBLA is based on a definite set of goals…” said President Gruber to the members. “Welcome to the

Paris Chapter of FBLA.” Sponsor Mason gave the assembled an overview of upcoming chapter activities.

Refreshments, including cookies, cakes and drinks were served.

Library... Continued from the front Center,” added Mattingly.

Brochures for the group were created by the R-II Digital Media Class including Abbie Wheelan and Sophie Alaina Atkinson. A library card can be

obtained by any tax paying Monroe County resident.

For more information on joining the Friends of the Dulaney Memorial Library contact Sue Mattingly at 660-327-4707.

Safety... Continued from the front

of Stoutsville to meet

The Friends And Neighbors of Stoutsville will hold an autumn meeting at the Stoutsville Community Center on Sunday, Oct. 28.

It is to visit and share information of the community from by-gone days. It is open to anyone that wants to and will attend and we hope all will bring their items of interest to share.

Included in this is any memorabilia of any kind and also pictures of family, friends, and neighbors that would help us recall earlier days of Stoutsville and the interesting things about it.

It will be a carry-in affair, as for the eating part, and we’ll probably start eating around 12:30 p.m. Come early and stay late and enjoy and be sure and bring any memorabilia you may have. Come and visit and

simple techniques to use near trucks.

• Pay attention to the driving task. Put down the phone, watch for signs and don’t allow passengers to distract you. Their safety depends on your vigilance.

• Don’t hang out in the No-Zone – the areas around trucks where cars disappear into blind spots or are so close that they restrict the truck driver’s ability to stop or maneuver safely.

• Don’t tailgate or cut into a truck’s space – it reduces a truck’s much needed breaking distance

and restricts both your and the truck driver’s evasive options.

• Allow plenty of room behind, to the side and in front of a truck.

• Use your headlights in inclement weather. Lights make cars more visible to truck drivers. A gray car against a gray highway on a gray, rainy day is hard to see.

All drivers, regardless of the type of vehicle, are encouraged to buckle up, mind the speed limit and pay attention to the driving task.

A Salute to Veterans will be held at the Madison Area Community Center on Veteran’s Day, Sunday, Nov. 11. The program will begin at 3 p.m., with musical entertainment by local talent.

At 4 p.m. all veterans and their families present will be recognized. A fish fry will be served at 5 p.m. Tickets are available at the Madison Area Community Center and at local churches. You

may also call the center at 291-5738, or Twana Hulen, 291-4282, to purchase tickets. Cost is $10 for adults, $5 for children 5-12, and under 5 are free. All veterans also eat free.

Just when you think you’ve seen it all, the Hannibal Jaycees bring you the most sinister, disturbing and frightening haunted house yet. Your most gruesome nightmares will come (back) to life every Friday and Saturday in October inside the former Smith Central Plumbing Supply building in downtown Hannibal at 320 South 3rd Street. Participants will make their way through a twisted maze of terror that covers over 7,000 square feet. The dates of operation are October 19 and 20 and 26 and 27. Enter into the mouth of madness from 7:30 to midnight each night! Admission is only $10 per person. No children under the age of 5 can be admitted, and all children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

The Jaycees are also introducing a new element of mayhem this year, with a special Zombie Run at 4 p.m., on Saturday, Oct. 20.

This will be a 5k run/walk for fun through downtown Hannibal, beginning and ending at the haunted house. The route will be illuminated with pumpkins to guide the runners along the path. A zombie-free Pumpkin Run for children 8 and under will be held the same day at 3 p.m.

To register for either run, download entry forms and a copy of the route at www. hannibaljaycees.org or contact Jennifer Foster at 573-231-2630. Additional Jaycees Haunted House information is also available at www.hannibalhauntedhouse.com.

The Hannibal Jaycees look forward to seeing you downtown in October.

Are you brave enough to

enter their all-new Haunted House? If you aren’t

scared of the dark now…

YOU WILL BE!

Missouri Chamber releases list of endorsed candidates

Recently the Missouri Chamber PAC, the political action arm of the Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry, selected their list of pro-jobs candidates they will endorse in the 2012 General Election.

“These candidates meet the standards employers should demand from the individuals they elect to protect their businesses and job growth for the entire state,” said Daniel P. Mehan, Missouri Chamber president/CEO. “A Missouri Chamber PAC endorsement ensures that a candidate is committed to pro-jobs policy and will be an effective advocate for employer issues once that candidate secures a seat in the Missouri Legislature.”

The selection process

is rigorous and is based on input from Missouri Chamber members, intense analysis of legislative vote records and other efforts to move pro-jobs legislation forward. Nonincumbent candidates are selected based on member input, personal interviews and candidate surveys.

Jim Hansen received the Missouri Chamber PAC’s endorsement for the 40th District State Representative seat. The new 40th District takes in Pike, Ralls, and parts of Monroe and Lincoln Counties.

“I am proud to be recognized by the Missouri Chamber of Commerce as the pro-jobs, pro-business candidate in this race,” Hansen said. “With over twenty-five years of busi-

ness experience and a small business owner I know the struggles facing our local business owners and the importance of building a strong rural economy. The people of this district are ready for a fresh voice of representation-and recognize the need for a strong advocate who will work to bring jobs back to our district.”

For more information on upcoming election, be sure to visit the Missouri Chamber PAC’s Election Action Center at www. mochamberelectioncenter. com. Here you will find candidate biographies, vote records and candidate positions on issues important to Missouri employers.

Jason Dodge, Pharm.D.

The Paris Coyotes (3-5) fought Marceline tough, Friday night, Oct. 12, in the first half finding themselves down only 13-6 at the half, on the road, to a good Marceline team that had recently defeated Westran 16-13.

Why was the game close at the half? One reason was the tackling of Kole Berrey, Justin Wolfe and Zac Baladenski who by themselves accounted for over half of the total 108 Coyote tackles. Each of these defensive juggernauts accounted for double digit tackles with Wolfe leading the way with 22 take downs of his own including 3 for losses and a sack. Berrey had 18 tackles including 2 for a loss while Baladenski dragged down 17 Tiger runners.

Lawrence Parrott added another 9 take downs while Wolfe, Parrott and Dylan Langerud all had sacks of the Tiger quarterback.

Offensively, the Coyotes struggled moving the ball early but after a time out close to the half and down 13-0 Steven Hayhurst led the Coyotes downfield in a hurry-up offense with short pinpoint passes to his receiving corps culminating in a 14 yard toss to

Slater Stone that bounced off two Tiger defenders to a concentrating Stone who snagged it in the end zone for a Coyote score. Paris had battled back to trail by only one score at the half.

Unfortunately, the game has two halves. Marceline put up a 20 point third quarter to lead 33-6 entering the final period.

In the fourth quarter, the never say die Coyotes saw Hayhurst step into a rifle pass to Zane Vaughn who caught it in stride and raced 44 yards for the second Coyote score of the night.

Slater Stone added the two point conversion in the right corner and Paris had 14 points for the final 4914 score.

Offensively, the Coyote had 135 yards in the air as Hayhurst went 13 of 24 for 135 and 2 touchdowns while the receiving corps saw balanced receptions as Vaughn (3), Laine Forrest (2), Justin Wolfe (3) and Stone (4) all had receptions.

On the ground Stone led all rushers with 16 yards, Hayhurst had 8 carries for 15 yards and Wolfe added 7 positive yards.

Statistics Scoring: Slater Stone 14 yard touchdown pass from

Steven Hayhurst; Zane Vaughn 44 yard pass form Hayhurst; Stone 2 point conversion.

Passing: Steven Hayhurst 13 completions in 24attmepts for 135 yards.

Receiving: Zane Vaughn 3 receptions for 54 yards; Laine Forrest 2/23; Justin Wolfe 3/26; and Stone 4/32.

Rushing: Hayhurst 8 rushes for 15 yards; Forrest 1/-6; Wolfe 3/7; and Stone 6/16.

Defensive Statistics Tackles: Chance Wheelan 2, Hayhurst 4, Forrest 7, Wolfe 22 (3 for a loss), Trae Hammond 7, Austin

Wilkerson 1, Stone 5, Briar Hancock 2, Lawrence Parrott 9, Zac Baladenski 17, Dylan Langerud 6, John DeOrnellis 4 (1 for a loss), Kole Berrey 18 (2 for a loss), Shane Umstattd 4.

Sacks: Wolfe 1, Parrott 1, Langerud 1.

If the season ended today the fifth place (in district scoring points) Coyotes would travel to Knox County (5-3) for the 10th game of the season in district play.

The Coyotes host Salisbury Friday, Oct. 19 for Senior Night with senior festivities to be held prior to the 7 p.m. kickoff.

The Village of Holliday has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Additional project information is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) on file at Village Hall, Holliday, Mo.; Monroe County PWSD #2 23504 Highway 24, Paris, Mo. and the Mark Twain COG 42494 Delaware Lane, Perry, Mo. and may be examined or copied weekdays 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

PUBLIC COMMENTS

Any individual, group, or agency may submit written comments on the ERR to the Village Hall. All comments received by November 2, 2012 will be considered by the Village prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which Notice they are addressing.

RELEASE OF FUNDS

The Village of Holliday certifies to the State of Missouri that Mike Dawson in his capacity as Village Chairman consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. The State of Missouri’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities and allows the Village to use HUD program funds.

OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS

The State of Missouri will accept objections to its release of funds and Village certification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of the Village of Holliday; (b) the Village has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR part 58; (c) the grant recipient or other participants in the development process have committed funds, incurred costs or undertaken activities not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by the State of Missouri; or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58, Sec. 58.76) and shall be addressed to State of Missouri Department of Economic Development, Community Development Block Grant at PO Box 118, Jefferson City, MO 65102.

dogs, bait, electronic calls, electronically activated calls or live decoys. Scents and minerals, including salt, are not considered bait; however, mineral blocks with food additives are prohibited. An area is considered baited for 10 days even after complete removal of the bait. It is illegal to place bait in a way that causes others to be in violation of the baiting rule.

• Deer may not be hunted, pursued or taken within any area enclosed by a fence greater than 7 feet in height, except in licensed hunting preserves.

• Deer and turkeys may not be pursued or taken from or with the aid of a motor-driven vehicle.

Deer may not be taken while they are in a stream or other body of water, or

from any boat with a motor attached.

Antlered deer limit • Each hunter may take only one antlered deer during the firearms deer season. This includes all portions, including the two youth portions.

• If you want to take additional antlered deer, you must hunt on an archer’s hunting permit during the archery deer season or in a managed hunt where antlered deer can be taken.

Hunter-education requirement All hunters born on or after Jan. 1, 1967, must complete an approved huntereducation program and display their card before they can purchase a firearms deer or turkey hunting permit unless: • they first purchase an Apprentice Hunter Autho-

Most taxidermists prefer deer to be caped out up to the neck, before they receive them. The process can seem intimidating, but it’s actually very simple if you have the instructions.

It’s important to cape your deer correctly, because unnecessary cuts will involve your taxidermist either sewing a seem that will be visible, or not having enough hide to do a full shoulder mount. Step 1 Split the back of the front leg up to where the white hair meets the brown.

Avoid cutting through the white hair in the armpit area.

Step 2 - Continue to cut diagonally to the fielddress line, or to the center

of the sternum. Repeat for the other front leg.

Step 3 - Skin legs and brisket back to the body.

Step 4 - Split and skin out hind legs.

Step 5 - Continue to skin, pulling hide past the front legs.

Step 6 - Skin down on the

neck, then cut the head off, leaving the whole hide attached to the head.

Missouri hunters urged to donate 10,000 deer through Share the Harvest program Missouri deer hunters have been encouraged by numerous state and local officials to help reach the goal of contributing 10,000 deer to families in need through the Share the Harvest program this year.

Share the Harvest is a partnership between the Conservation Federation of Missouri, the Missouri Department of Conservation, regional food banks, local food pantries and meat processors to provide venison donated by hunters and processors to Missouri families in need.

“Hunting is a time-honored tradition here in Missouri, as is sharing with those in need,” Gov. Nixon said. “For more than two decades, Missouri’s hunters have helped thousands of struggling families put food on the table through the Share the Harvest program. Again this year, I encourage all Missouri hunters to join me by helping us reach the goal of donating 10,000 deer to feed Missouri families in need.”

Throughout archery and the November Firearms deer season, the Share the Harvest program subsidizes a portion of the cost of butchering and packag-

ing whole deer donated by Missouri hunters; in many communities, local partners cover the remainder of the processing costs. To participate, hunters simply take their deer to an approved processor and indicate how much venison they wish to contribute, ranging from a few pounds to a whole deer.

“For Missouri hunters, there is a proud legacy of giving back to our communities through the Share the Harvest program,” said Dave Murphy, executive director of the Conservation Federation of Missouri. “Thanks to Gov. Nixon’s leadership and the support of our private sponsors, we have continued to see an increase in donations to our food banks of healthy, nutritious venison for Missouri families.”

Now in its 21st season, the Share the Harvest program is able to process up to 10,000 deer this season and provide that venison to families in need. During the 2011 hunting season, nearly 6,200 whole deer were processed through Share the Harvest, resulting in more than 370,000 pounds of venison for families in need. That was an increase

over the 5,390 whole deer donated in 2010, and the 4,200 whole deer donated in 2009. During each of the past three hunting seasons, Gov. Nixon has donated a whole deer he successfully hunted to Share the Harvest.

The 2012 Missouri firearms deer season opens Nov. 10, and runs through

Mark Twain Quail Forever will hold a banquet on October 20, at the Madison Community Center.

Chronic Waste Disease found in free ranging animals

According to the Department of Natural resources, Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) has been found in a small number of captive and free-ranging deer in northcentral Missouri. CWD causes neurological damage in deer, elk and moose that leads to changes in behavior, extreme weight loss and excessive salivation. The disease is always fatal, and there is no known cure for CWD. When did CWD arrive in Missouri?

Missouri’s first cases of CWD were detected in three captive white-tailed bucks at two private hunting preserves in Linn and Macon counties between February 2010 and December 2011.

Eight more cases of CWD have been found in captive white-tailed deer at the private Macon-County facility since December 2011 for a total of 11 CWD-positive deer at the two private facilities.

In response to the initial cases, the Conservation Department worked with hunters during the 2010 and 2011 firearms deer seasons to collect tissue samples from 2,027 deer harvested in the area. From this sampling, two adult bucks from Macon County tested positive for CWD in the fall of 2011.

The two positive test results were the first for freeranging deer in Missouri. In response to the two positive

free-ranging deer, the Department again worked with landowners and the public in Linn and Macon counties to sample 657 more freeranging deer in early 2012 to more accurately determine the prevalence and distribution of the disease in the local area.

From this sampling, two adult does and one adult buck tested positive for CWD. As of May 2012, Missouri has identified 16 cases of CWD in white-tailed deer with all of them being found in Linn or Macon counties.

Eleven cases were from captive deer and five were from free-ranging deer.

How does CWD spread?

CWD spreads through prions, which are abnormal proteins that attack the nervous system. Prions can be passed from one deer to another.

Prions also enter the environment through urine, feces or carcasses of diseased deer and can infect deer in the area for years afterwards.

Thus, activities such as feeding that unnaturally concentrate deer can lead to higher infection rates. Prions move moderate distances when young, infected bucks disperse from their birthplaces.

Prions move long distances through the transportation of infected captive deer or the improper disposal of infected deer carcasses.

How serious is the problem?

White-tailed deer are a vital part of Missouri’s biodiversity, hunting heritage and local economies. More than 500,000 Missourians hunt deer. Each year, deer hunting supports 11,000 jobs and adds more than $1 billion to Missouri’s economy. Once established, CWD progresses slowly but methodically through a deer herd with devastating results.

The Department considers CWD to be a serious problem.

Can CWD infect people or livestock?

The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services says there is no evidence that CWD can infect people.

The Missouri Department of Agriculture says there is no evidence that CWD can spread to domestic livestock, such as sheep or cattle. The Chronic Wasting Disease Alliance recommends the following common-sense precautions when handling deer that may have been exposed to CWD: • Do not handle or consume any deer that is acting abnormally or appears to be sick.

• Contact the Conservation Department if you see or harvest an animal that appears sick.

• Wear latex or rubber gloves when field dressing deer.

• Bone out meat from the animal. Don’t saw through bone, and avoid cutting through the brain or spinal cord (backbone).

• Minimize handling of brain and spinal tissues.

• Wash hands and instruments thoroughly after field dressing is completed.

• Avoid consuming brain, spinal cord, eyes, spleen, tonsils and lymph nodes of harvested deer. Normal field dressing coupled with boning-out a carcass will remove most, if not all, of these body parts. Cutting away all fatty tissue will remove remaining lymph nodes.

• Avoid consuming meat from any animal that tests positive for CWD. To slow the spread of CWD, the Department has established a six-county containment zone, enacted new regulations and continues to test captive and wild deer.

To make these efforts successful, they need help from hunters, landowners and the general public. Please educate yourself about CWD and follow the regulations and guidelines listed below.

has been lifted for the six counties in the CWD Containment Zone. Male deer exhibit CWD at much higher rates than females. The dispersal of yearling males from their birthplaces in search of home territories and mates is also a primary way CWD spreads.

The Department encourages hunters who harvest deer in the CWD Containment Zone not to take whole deer carcasses or carcass parts out of the Zone. However, these items are safe to transport: • Meat that is cut and wrapped • Meat that has been boned out • Quarters or other portions of meat with no part of the spinal column or head attached • Hides or capes from which all excess tissue has

been removed

• Antlers • Antlers attached to skull

plates or skulls cleaned of all muscle and brain tissue • Finished taxidermy products.

The counties of Adair, Chariton, Linn, Macon, Randolph and Sullivan now comprise a CWD Containment Zone. Special regulations and voluntary guidelines apply in these counties.

Grain, salt products, minerals and other consumable natural or manufactured products used to attract deer are now prohibited in the CWD Containment Zone.

However, the following exceptions are allowed: • Feed placed within 100 feet of any residence or occupied building • Feed placed in a manner that excludes access by deer • Feed and minerals used solely for normal agricultural, forest management or wildlife food plot production practices Activities such as feeding deer or attracting them using salts and minerals artificially concentrates many deer in a small area. This increases the chance for CWD to be spread from one deer to another or from the soil to a deer.

2012 Hunting Regulations... an e-Permit again.

A person must be at least 11 years old to receive hunter education certification. People hunting with resident landowner permits are exempt from the hunter-education requirement unless they were born on or after Jan. 1, 1967, and are mentoring a firearms hunter who is not hunter education certified.

Assisting other deer and turkey hunters A person must have a filled or unfilled turkey hunting permit to call turkeys for another hunter.

Also, a person must have a filled or unfilled deer hunting permit to assist others in pursuing or taking deer, which includes participating in deer drives or enticing deer with calls or rattling antlers. It is illegal to shoot or take a deer or turkey for another hunter.

Note: Party hunting where hunters pool their tags is prohibited.

Purple paint law Landowners may post or define the boundaries of their property by marking trees and fence posts with purple paint. In a court of law, a property boundary marked with purple paint is the same as posting “No Trespassing” signs.

Tree stands placed on Conservation Department areas Only portable tree stands may be placed or used only between Sept. 1 and Jan. 31 on Conservation Department areas. Unattended stands must be plainly labeled on durable material with the full name and address, or Conservation I.D. number of the owner and be removed from the area before Feb. 1. Use of nails,

screw-in steps or any material that would damage the tree is prohibited.

Retrieval of game Anyone who kills or injures a deer or turkey must make a reasonable effort to retrieve and include the animal in his or her season limit, but this does not authorize trespass. It is a violation to wantonly leave or abandon commonly edible portions of game.

Use of dogs to recover legally taken game A hunter can use leashed dogs to track and recover mortally wounded deer or turkeys, provided the hunter: (1) has exhausted other reasonable means of finding the animal, (2) contacts a conservation agent, (3) does not possess fire-

Continued from page 19

arms or bows during dogtracking activities, and (4) maintains control of the leashed dog at all times.

Note: Use of dogs to recover game does not authorize trespass.

Keep deer carcasses out of streams and lakes It is illegal to place a deer carcass or any of its parts into any well, spring, brook, branch, creek, stream, pond or lake.

Labeling game All harvested deer and turkeys, either whole or processed, must be labeled with the taker’s full name, address and Telecheck confirmation number.

or turkey may give it to another person, but the game counts toward the taker’s bag limit.

Deer and turkeys that are given away must be labeled with the taker’s full name, address, Telecheck confirmation number, species and the date taken.

Possession, storage and sale Properly checked deer and turkeys may be possessed by anyone if labeled with the taker’s full name, address, Telecheck confirmation number, species and the date taken.

The Telecheck confirmation number must remain attached to the carcass until a processor begins the act of processing the meat for packaging.

Deer left at commercial processing or cold storage plants must be claimed by May 1 following the season taken or the owner will be in violation of Rule 3 CSR 10-4.140.

Turkeys may not be possessed after Feb. 15 following the season taken.

Legally obtained turkey bones and feathers, and deer heads, antlers, hides and feet may be sold by the taker, but the taker must provide a bill of sale showing: • the taker’s full name and address, • the species and number of the parts, • the full name and address of the buyer.

For deer heads and/or antlers attached to skull plates, a dated bill of sale identifying the seller must be retained while the heads or antlers are in the buyer’s possession.

Any person who finds a dead deer with antlers still attached to the skull plate may take the antlers, but must report the find to a conservation agent within 24 hours to receive authorization to possess the antlers.

No authorization is needed to possess, buy and sell shed antlers not attached to the skull plate.

Shooting dogs is illegal Although landowners have some recourse if dogs are injuring or killing livestock under Missouri Revised Statutes, Section 273.030, dogs that merely enter private property may not be killed. In fact, Section 578.012 provides penalties for intentionally killing a dog or other animal.

Anyone killing a dog under circumstances other than the narrow ones described above can expose themselves to significant legal difficulty. Those who kill dogs may be forced to pay restitution and/or face criminal charges. Because dogs are considered personal property, dog killings are investigated by local law enforcement authorities, not by conservation agents.

It is illegal for persons to trespass on private property without permission. Ethical hunters who use dogs

do their best to keep them off property where dogs are not wanted, and should contact the property owner for permission to retrieve them when their dogs follow game onto such private property. The Conservation Department works with the Sporting Dog Association of Missouri and other groups to encourage legal and ethical hunting activities and to establish good relationships with private landowners.
