As Time Goes By

From the desk of the Editor

BY DAVID EALES EDITOR

All yesteryears are reprinted in the exact text of the original issue

appeal@parismo.net

Ho Ho Horrible… Many people say that customer service these days is a thing of the past. I do not know if that is true but I can tell you where customer service lives… It lives in small towns.

When I go to the big box stores I feel that customer service is dependent on the individual person. Some have good customer service while others couldn’t spell customer service if you spotted them the words customer and service.

However, here in Paris and in the local area, people know the reason and how to provide customer service.

When you go into a local store the helpful clerk’s smile and greet you, usually by name. It is so nice to shop in a friendly environment.

I went shopping the other night in one of the big box stores and it was chaos. Not only were there to few lines open for checkout the store employees were in short supply. Half the people waiting in the long lines ended up putting their selections down and leaving the store.

Can you imagine shopping at Dollar General and not being greeted cheerfully

by Cathy Mattingly and the entire staff? I have also read many posts on social media regarding the positive attitude of Dollar General staff.

Maybe some of the other big stores should take head and train their staff members accordingly.

The positive customer

DAVID EALES

service is not limited to DG. Here in Paris all our local stores including Paris Hardware, Paris Pharmacy, all our local restaurants, The Flower Shoppe, Paris Sporting Goods, all our hair care shops and all the other local businesses have excellent customer service.

Is it the small towns that have great customer service because it helps drive their business and help sales or is it the other way around, their great customer service makes people want to shop in the relaxing and positive manner that it provides? No matter what the reason – I will always shop at a place that “greets” you in a positive and friendly manner rather than a grunt and a glance.

Happy holiday shopping – and remember shop locally as much as you can!

Congratulations to all our local athletes on their post season awards.

It is a testament to the coaching staffs and the dedication of the athletes and our local programs have numerous team members on the post season lists.

Have a great week!

MY TURN The School Board

School Board election filings will be coming up again beginning on December 16, 2014 and ending on January 20, 2015.

What board members actually do or can do is not all that clear to the patrons of a district nor to someone who may be interested in serving as a school board member. So I have dedicated my column this week to a basic outline of school board service.

Members serve three year terms or parts of unexpired terms of fewer that three years without pay. Full terms begin after the April elections.

There are 7 members with 2 or 3 elected in alternate years. They must be U.S. Citizens, resident tax payers in the district, a state resident one year prior to election and at least twenty-four years of age. Elected members are required to attend training programs of 16 hours sponsored by the Missouri School Boards Association in their first year of service.

The present Board meets on Wednesdays each month usually the third week, at 6 p.m.

Special meetings are currently held at 7 a.m. on a day most convenient to the most members.

The Board selects its own officers each year after new members are

elected. There are no limits as to how many three year terms a member can serve.

Board and school actions are governed by detailed School District Policies and Regulations based on Missouri Laws and kept current each session of the Legislature. The basic goal of the School Board is to provide the highest quality education permitted by the financial resources available and to act in every case in the best interest of the students. The Board has the responsibility to see that schools are properly administered for which they hold the Superintendent responsible.

School Board members also have a duty of confidentially with regard to student and school employee matters. Those and other issues taken up in closed sessions are not disclosed except as reported in the closed session minutes.

Being a School Board member does take personal time, requires cooperation among Board members and with administration, patrons and parents. It can at times be difficult as well. Most former Board members find it to have been a very rewarding and worthwhile public service.

10th Circuit receives state awards for third consecutive year... in fiscal year 2013. The Circuit also ranked first in the state for timely disposition of felony criminal cases and domestic relations cases in fiscal year 2013.

O’Toole Award The O’Toole Award is given to circuits for efficiently managing and processing cases. Judge Bringer Shepherd said, “I am very grateful for the hard work and continuous efforts of all of the court personnel, judges, clerks, attorneys and their staff, law enforcement including bailiffs, juvenile office staff, Children’s Division staff, and the Court Appointed Special Advocates to resolve cases in a timely manner.”

The O’Toole Award, named for the late judge’s service as the first chair of the time standards monitoring committee, recognizes the success of the circuits in handling cases in a timely manner.

To qualify, a circuit must achieve at least five of the ten case processing time standards and must not be more than five percent from achieving the remaining standards.

At the awards presentation, Judge Teitelman noted that only twelve circuits received the 2013 O’Toole award, and Judge Rachel Bringer Shepherd noted that the Tenth Circuit was one of only two circuits in the state to meet all ten time standards for the past three consecutive years.

Judge John J. Jackson, Marion County Associate Judge commented, “It is a privilege to serve the public in the Tenth Circuit and an honor for the entire circuit to receive these awards. All of the Court personnel, especially the clerks are an integral part of the judicial system. Without all of us, these time standards could not be met. It is all together fitting and proper that we honor all the Court personnel in the Tenth Circuit.”

Along with Circuit Clerks Carolyn Conners and Valerie Munzlinger, the Marion

County Circuit Clerk staff includes Lory Majors, Christine Tate, Rhonda Adams, Hope Spurgeon, Gary Rush, Cheryl Damron, and Becky Tuley.

Monroe County Associate Circuit Judge Michael Wilson said, “We recognize that sometimes our legal system probably seems to plod, and we can’t eliminate all delays. But I think that we as a circuit -- from the most senior judge down to the newest clerk -- are aware of the frustration and stress that comes from dragging out cases unnecessarily; and the number of years in which we have received these awards shows we remain sensitive to that. So, we appreciate this recognition.

Speed is no substitute for accuracy, but an effective legal system must strive for both.” The Monroe County Circuit Clerk’s Office includes Circuit Clerk Heather Wheeler, Pennie Miller, and Debbie Landon.

Judge David Mobley added, “We wouldn’t be receiving this award if we didn’t have such a dedicated and hard working group in the Ralls County Circuit Clerk’s office. Gina Jameson, Karen Huff, Rosanne Epperson, Terry Ross, Holly Ross, and Kelsey Anderson work diligently to get things done.”

Permanency Award The Permanency Award is given to circuits for successfully holding timely hearings during fiscal 2013 in child abuse and neglect cases in which children removed from their homes are to be reunited with their families or are to be placed in another permanent home as soon as possible.

The hearing time frames apply to six types of hearings and vary depending on the type of hearing. For example, courts should hold a hearing to determine whether a child safely can return home within three business days from the date the child is taken into protective custody. Another time frame provides

that courts should hold a permanency hearing to decide a child’s permanent placement within twelve months from the date the child is taken into protective custody. These time frames were developed based on recommendations from the Commission on Children’s Justice.

In evaluating what circuits qualify for the permanency awards, the circuits first were placed in size classes based on the total number of hearings that were due to be held during a particular time period. A circuit then had to rank among the top two in its size class to qualify.

Judge Bringer Shepherd said, “I am very grateful for the consistent, diligent

2014 Holiday Home Tours – A Christmas is Caring Benefit

There will be 3 homes on the tour this year. The tour will be held Sunday Dec. 14, from 4 PM to 6:30 PM. The money donated will all go to Christmas is Caring. While touring the homes people can give at one home or all. This tour is sponsored by the Paris Presbyterian Church and is an annual event to raise money for Christmas is Caring. Paris Presbyterian Church appreciates your support and contributions in this event. There will be information on the tour at Hickman’s IGA and Abels.

We are extremely fortunate to have three families this year that want to open their homes to the public for this fund raiser. Please express your gratitude when touring.

1.

Keith and Sharon Hillard, 15810 Highway 15 South, Paris, MO. Keith and Sharon built their home about three years ago. It’s a beautiful brick home that sits just off Highway 15 South of Paris about four miles. It is just past Route AA/KK on the left. The home has an open floor plan with 3 bedrooms. The kitchen is open and has beautiful granite countertops and wonderful appliances. The basement is finished with a walkout that has a wonderful view.

They also have a Sun Room that is a “bright” spot in the

house. Sharon and Keith have worked diligently the last couple years getting their new home furnished with many, many beautiful Christmas decorations.

Don’t miss this treat; they have worked hard to prepare for this event.

2.

Tony and Glenda Miller – 339 W. Locust, Paris, MO. Tony and Glenda’s home is a brick two story home with grand columns on the front porch. This home was built in 1907 by the Buerk’s. The Buerk’s owned a mercantile store in Paris and traded labor for items from their store. Mr. Buerk died in the 1930’s but Mrs. Buerk lived until 1950. Mrs. Buerk willed the home to her brother Mr. Rose who never married. Mr. Rose did have a girlfriend and when he died he willed the home to his girlfriend. She never lived in the home. In the older portion of the basement there is a concrete fish pond that was used to keep the fish from the outside pond in the winter. The home has a main stairway and a servant’s stairway.

Donald and Barb Simpson did major renovations and added a large kitchen and garage to the house when they owned it in 1999.

Tony and Glenda bought the home from the Simpsons in 2005. The home

has beautiful woodwork and has three very large pocket doors. Their home has three stories. The main floor features the kitchen, living room, library, dining room and bath. The second story has three bedrooms and a bath. The third story is a large bedroom for their three boys. The architecture and workmanship in the home is impeccable. What a great opportunity to see this historic home.

3. Bob and Peggy Crabtree – 603 Rock Road, Paris, MO Bob and Peggy have a wonderful two story White Home that sits on the west side of Rock Road. The home features two story columns on the front porch.

Bob and Peggy along with their children and grandchildren decorate this home in every corner. Their house has been on the home tours several times but they are always changing displays and getting new and different decorations every year.

They have many trees with several different themes.

They also have many beautiful nativity scenes. Peggy really loves to decorate for Christmas and really enjoys sharing her gorgeous decorations with everyone who comes to visit. Our community is blessed to be able to see their home and all their decorations.

CHURCH NEWS

Services at Holliday Christian Church on December 7, were opened with the prelude, “Let There Be Peace on Earth” by Sally Blakemore, pianist. The congregation was welcomed by Reverend David Holmes.

Collection of Christmas Is Caring items concluded; items were loaded for distribution following worship.

Advent season schedules are available at the rear of the sanctuary. On December 21, bell Sunday will be observed with bells ringing during singing; that same evening the annual chili supper/carol singing will be held. Madison Lions Club will host its Christmas dinner on Sunday, December 14. Happy birthday was sung to Halli Patrick.

In observance of the second Sunday in Advent, Gary and Diane Wilson lit the first and second Advent candles. Scripture from Psalms 51:1-10 and James 5:13-18 was read by Gary. Diane shared a reading and Gary led the congregation in prayer. Singing “Angels from the Realms of Glory” began as the congregation stood; pastoral prayer and Gloria Patri followed.

Prayer concerns were expressed for: Loretta Koch, Mac Donovan and for Ervin Lute who lost his wife, Lena, and his home in a fire. Jim and Mary McMorris asked for safe travels for their grandchildren returning from the Mizzou game in Atlanta. Jane Akers shared the joy of a good doctor’s report for Sandy Gail Davis.

Sympathy was extended to the families of Lois Friday and Martha Blackaby.

“There’s A Song in the Air”, was the prayer hymn sung. Moments of meditation during the final verse were followed by prayer.

The communion hymn, “Here, O My Lord, I See Thee Face to Face” was sung as elders, Sandy Callison and Carole Roberts, went forward to serve at the Lord’s Table. Diaconate: Jane Akers and Diane Wilson. The doxology and prayer followed sharing of communion and offering collection.

December 7 marks the 73rd anniversary of the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor. Unknown lives would have been saved if a warning of the attack had been heard and the opportunity to seek shelter given. We, too, are under attack to ignore the warning of a problem – an attack from the temptation to sin. God, through his Son, the Messiah, makes us aware of His offer to seek shelter in His salvation and to believe in the One who is coming. Heed the warning and take what is freely offered. For the morning message entitled, “Listen to the Warning”, Reverend Holmes referenced scripture from Mark 1:8.

The closing hymn, “It Came Upon the Midnight Clear”, was sung. Prayer and singing of “The Spirit Song” closed morning worship.

Following a time of fellowship and for refreshments, Jane Akers read “In Christ You Are a Child of Light” from “365 Things God Wants Us to Know.” Diane Wilson shared a reading entitled “I Believe in Santa Claus”.

Jim McMorris led the group in prayer and then discussion of the different religions around the world and the difference in beliefs among them.

Services are held each Sunday at Holliday Christian Church beginning with worship at 9:30 a.m., followed

by Bible Study at 10:30 a.m. All are welcomed and encouraged to attend.

On December 7 church services began with the pastor giving an opening prayer. Regular church activities of the week were announced and all were encouraged to attend. Announcements included: December 13 at 8:30 a.m., is Men’s Breakfast, December 14 will be the Christmas Program during morning service, followed by a soup and sandwich lunch, and community caroling at 2 p.m., and on December 24, at 6 p.m. will be Christmas Eve Services. Praises to Him Ministries came and presented the Gospel in song during the morning service. Afterward the church enjoyed fellowship during our Holiday Meal.

The Second Sunday of Advent, December 7 began with Patti Grimmett playing “Sweet Little Jesus Boy” on the piano followed by Debbie Carey leading in song to “O Come All Ye Faithful”, “Away In a Manger”, “Doxology”, “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear”, and “”While Shepherd’s Watched Their Flocks by Night”.

The Tilt family led the Responsive Reading as Kaylee Beckham lit the 2nd Advent Candle.

Pastor John Grimmett led in prayer for Jeff Knipp; Marsha; John Threlkeld; Bryan Carey; Susie McGee; the Ferguson situation; the military and our police officers and those traveling; and the families of Annie Ratliff, Williams; Francis Reidlinger, Yoder, See, Lois Friday, Mrs. Harold Graupman, Fisher and Blackaby; Happy Birthday was sang to Kaylee; and Happy Anniversary to Andy and Betsy Sluhan; with a praise for Billie Cearley’s new great-granddaughter Joshlyn Marie with all saying the Lord’s Prayer and the Unison Prayer.

Patti sang a song she wrote, “Mary’s Song” for the morning special.

Andy and Betsy Sluhan brought their baby daughter, Andi JoLynn, to be dedicated to serve the Lord, it was a very special event.

The message “Joseph’s Dream” was based on scripture from Matthew 1:18-25 as only a woman can understand the love of a child - sometimes the man can miss the small things where they see only the big picture.

Joseph being a simple man - his commitment of bringing a son into the world, teaching the babe his trade as a carpenter - providing for a wife and a son named Jesus, conceived by the Holy Ghost. In a dream, Joseph’s life was changed as he fixed his life on his son, JESUS, pouring himself out - transforming himself for his family. Paul writes in Ephesians - Love between a man and a woman - “Husbands love your wives as Christ loved the Church”, as the man is the head of the household.

Communion was led by Max Tilt and Martha Hill as Patti played “Mary Did You Hear?” with Offertory led

by Kaylee.

“Go Tell It On the Mountain” was played as all retired in fellowship.

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

Everyone welcome to Adult Sunday School 9:30 a.m., Junior Church and Worship 10:45 a.m.

Weekly thought from Charles Brent: The happy sequence culminating in fellowship with God is penitence, pardon, and peace – the first we offer, the second we accept, and the third we inherit.

“The Deception Danger” was the title of Pastor Kenny Sharp’s sermon with scripture text taken from Genesis 3:1-13. The enemy (devil) understands deception better than anyone. This all started in the Garden of Eden when Adam and Eve were deceived by the serpent. The “enemy” is always there nudging us to do the wrong thing, i.e. watching tv, shopping, reading a magazine, etc instead of studying the Bible, attending church, etc. The enemy’s voice is never about love, protecting your family, doing the right thing -- he is there to deceive us. We need to spend more time with God now more than ever before.

Jared and Ashley Kendrick and sons lit the second Advent candle during worship service.

Serving at the Lord’s Table were Bob Conley, Don Wilkerson, Charles Thomas, Bill Miller, Charlie Horstmeier and Jared Kendrick.

Many names of friends and family members were named during prayer time. Thanks were expressed to Karen Conley and to everyone who helped with the Hanging of the Greens service and to Ashley Kendrick and helpers for the ornaments to decorate the Christmas tree. Also, Brian Chase and company were thanked for the 2nd place float they made for the Christmas parade in Paris.

Announcements: Saturday, December 13 - Salt Saturday Youth Group will meet at Susan and Dennis Kendrick’s home at 10 a.m., to plan their 2015 calendar; Sunday, Dec. 14 - Shut in plates will be prepared Sunday morning at 8:45 in the fellowship hall (please have items there by that time); Friday, December 19 Christmas program at 7 p.m.; Sunday, December 21 - Jesus’ birthday party.

Please come and join us Sunday mornings for Sunday School at 9:30 a.m., followed by worship service at 10:30 a.m. Bible study is held on Wednesday nights at 6:30 p.m., (meal at 6 p.m.).

It was announced that the RA boys would be delivering Christmas cards. The postage saved can be given to the Lottie Moon offering. Food, toys, and clothing will be collected this week for Christmas is Caring and will be distributed on Friday. Help is needed.

Reverend Jimmy Stewart gave the Advent Meditation. He lit the Peace Candle. We need to have a life of peace in Christ to allow our Christian life to be fruitful - Christ was and is the Prince of Peace.

Reverend Stewart’s sermon topic was “The Innkeeper: Giving What One Can” from Luke 2:1-7. How do we see the innkeeper - as good or bad? Mary was warned by the angel of the birth of Christ and Joseph was warned in a dream . But the innkeeper was unaware, however, he was honest; there was no room. He was also compassionate and caring. He did not shut the door on them but directed them to the manger which was the best he could do. Are we willing to give the best that we can?

Special music was provided by Cheryl Gholson and Steve Ensor, “Here I Am To Worship”.

Celebration of the Lord’s Supper was observed. John Mitchell gave the prayer for the bread. Gale Wilkerson gave the prayer for the cup.

Submitted by Conservation Agent Dave McCorkell Monroe County has seen a successful 2014 firearms hunting season.

The cold weather had brought an element to hunting that had not been seen in recent years. Eight hundred fifteen antlered bucks were harvested over the 10-day firearms season, 236 button bucks and 736 does.

One thousand seven hundred and eighty-seven are the total harvested deer in the firearms season. This is up 249 from the 2013 firearms season.

167,205 is the total harvested for the state. This is up 9,932 from 2013 November portion of the firearms season.

The record harvest for the state was set in 2006 with 235,054 deer in the 10 day November portion of the firearms season.

I want to remind people that we still have other deer seasons continuing through the month of January. Archery season is back open and will continue through January 15, 2015. The antlerless portion of the firearms

season will end on December 7. The alternative methods portion will start on December 20 and go through the 30 of December. The firearms late youth portion will be the weekend of January 3-4, 2015.

We are hunting incident free during the season so far. I would like to keep it this way.

Please be safe and remember rule number 1 of firearms safety; always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction. Also, please remember to 100% positively identify your target and what is beyond it.

Please remember to wear your hunter orange when participating in the antlerless portion, alternative methods portion, and the youth portion. Archers do not need to wear hunter orange during the alternative methods portion, but do need to wear hunter orange during the antlerless portion and the youth portion in January.

“We did well this firearms season and did not have any hunter incidents,” said Agent McCorkell.

$4,428 Members at the Paris Senior Center celebrate their grant from “Meals on Wheels”.

Left to right, Willie Edward, Senior Center Director Tara Sheffield, Cindy Hultz, Mary Putnam and Diane Sanders.

APPEAL PHOTO

Paris Senior Center receives “Meals on Wheels” grant The Paris Senior Citizens Community Center has been awarded $500.00 as part of the Meals On Wheels OpportunityBased Grants Program.

This special grant offer dramatically underscored the great need for additional funding among their Member programs by generating more than 400 submissions requesting nearly $3.4 million!

Although the high demand meant that many programs were not able to receive the full amount of their request, we truly hope this grant will enable you to make a greater difference to the seniors in your community.

All Opportunity-Based Grant funding was raised through the 2013 Subaru “Share the Love” event.

In total, the Association received a pool of $1.35 million to be granted back to our Members during 2014. More than $600,000 of this funding had already been granted. This

grant program places the remaining $750,000 into the hands of Members that will put it to use to support America’s seniors.

As a condition of the Subaru grant, the grantee is required to distribute funds in allocations that correspond to state-bystate vehicle sales and leases during the 2013 “Share the Love” event.

Therefore, the level of available funding varied by state and was the first criteria they are required to consider. They also evaluated the level of impact these grants can create in your communities and have done our best to make a fair and equitable distribution of funds among eligible applicants.

The Meals On Wheels Association of America delivers the most effective method for creating real, measurable and sustainable impact on the lives of seniors at both the national level and on the ground

in communities all across America. They invite you to become a part of delivering this impact in our local communities.

Meals on Wheels programs have been partnering with Subaru retailers to create local market impact for six years of “Share the Love.” Each year has inspired greater creativity, collaboration and visibility for both Subaru retailers and Meals on Wheels programs.

These partnerships deliver real value to Subaru staff and communities by: • Fundraising employee satisfaction and loyalty through volunteer opportunities • Increasing visibility on both the local and national level • Making a real difference in the lives of seniors in their communities • Increasing community engagement • Creating long-term, productive relationships

REAL ESTATE GUIDE

REAL ESTATE 10 THINGS TO CONSIDER

If you’ve narrowed down your choice of a home to one, you may be eager to make an offer and get negotiations started. If you’re buying in a tight market where sellers have the upper hand you may even feel pressured to put in an offer the moment you see a house.

But, before you write that check for your earnest money deposit, you should take a little time to investigate the house and the neighborhood so you have a better idea of what you’re buying.

Your REALTOR® can be a valuable resource in gathering information for you and getting the answers to your questions from the seller’s agent. In the meantime, you can be proactive and do some of your own research.

1. Search for neighborhood information online.

If you already live in the community, you may be able to skip this step, but it’s always worthwhile to search local newspaper websites, local government sites, community sites and blogs to find out what’s happening in terms of upcoming development or other issues.

2. Check the crime report.

Your local police station will have statistics on crime and you can also go to www.crimereports.com to find information according to a particular address

or ZIP code.

3. Check on the schools.

Even if you don’t have children, buying a home in a good school district is an important way to make sure your home maintains its value. You can find information on each school district website or go to www.GreatSchools.com for ratings.

4. Check for local amenities.

You can go to Google Maps for a Street View of a community to see what’s nearby, or visit www.WalkScore.com to find out what is within walking distance of the home. If you have a particular activity that you enjoy, such as tennis or golf or swimming, find out how far you’ll have to go to get to a facility.

5. Check for neighborhood amenities.

If you’re buying within a homeowners association, you can usually find information online about community activities, but even in areas without an association some neighborhoods have frequent community-wide gatherings or sports leagues.

6. Visit the home at different times of day.

If you want to know what it will be like to live somewhere, visit on a weekday, a weeknight and a weekend to see how quiet or active the area will be.

7. Test your commute.

If you only visit a home on a weekend

you’ll have no idea what the traffic pattern is like during rush hour, which could have a big impact on your enjoyment of the property.

8. Schedule a home inspection.

Your purchase offer should include a home inspection so you know what repairs must be made and about how they will cost. You may or may not be able to negotiate for the seller to pay for home improvements, but it’s always better to go into a house with full knowledge of its condition.

9. Talk to the sellers.

If the sellers are willing to share information with you, they’re the best resource of all to learn about the community and the house. You can ask the sellers about renovations they’ve done and even talk to them about whether your plans for the house are possible.

10. Ask about taxes, homeowner association dues, homeowners insurance and utility bills.

Your monthly housing payment includes more than just the principal and interest on your loan. Make sure the taxes, insurance, homeowner association dues and utility bills will fit into your budget.
