Calhoun County Fair canceled By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald It was a decision organizers held off making in hopes that the situation might change, but they had reached an inflection point, and ultimately, a call had to be made. On Wednesday, Aug. 5, the Calhoun County Fair Board unanimously decided to cancel the Calhoun County Fair, joining the long list of county fairs across the state who already canceled. Like those other fairs, the Calhoun County Fair was canceled because of COVID-19 and the challenge they would have faced trying to adhere to guidelines related to the virus. Also, this comes at a time when COVID-19 cases are rising faster among those in Calhoun and across the state. Fair Board President Terry Strach said it was more than that, though. “The big thing was, though, that our

It was announced previously that the locals are set to hit the fair stage in the Calhoun Entertainment Company’s production of “Peter Pan.� Also too, the fair royalty will be asked to serve another year.

Community rallies around ‘Mr. B’ By CONNOR ASHLOCK Calhoun News-Herald

O

nce again, the citizens of Calhoun County have come together to show the world what true neighborliness looks like. When Hardin resident Mark Baalman, lovingly known as “Mr. B�, took a serious fall and suffered a traumatic brain injury in the early morning of July 22, the news swiftly reverberated throughout the county and surrounding area, and word of the incident did not fall on deaf ears. The father, brother, mentor, teacher and friend is known around the community for his activities with Calhoun’s Koinonia, St. Francis of Assisi Parish and working as an elementary physical education teacher with Calhoun District Unit 40, as well as being known for his family’s produce stand in Hardin. As word began to spread among his District 40 coworkers, prayers, support and notes of encouragement began to spread around as well, taking the attention of county residents away from what’s going on around the world to what’s going on at home. Through a private Facebook messaging group, faculty and staff maintained an “around the clock� prayer schedule,

where individuals were able to maintain a constant, neverceasing chain of prayer that has been maintained through the present. Soon enough, the idea of hosting a prayer vigil was sparked, so Mr. B’s coworkers and other community members went to work planning the occasion. Coworkers and friends of Baalman called upon volunteers to aid in the community effort while music, prayers and notes of encouragement were collected to be shared at the prayer service. The first vigil was held on the evening of July 26 at the football stadium and attracted quite a number of people. Because of the increased presence of the pandemic in the county, safety was decidedly at the forefront of the planning process, and the community was in full cooperation over the matter. Families gathered around, near or in their cars, which were parked along the field and end zone. There were also community members scattered throughout the grandstand and sidelines as Eric Kallal and Hannah Nelson read prayers aloud that had been gathered for the family. It was decided that another vigil would be held the following Sunday, given the turnout at the first, and there (See, MR. B, A2)

Jacobs’ and the giant peach Brussels-grown fruit could shatter world record By MEAGAN MCGLASSON Calhoun News-Herald The fine folks at Jacob’s Orchard and Farms quite literally outdid themselves last week when they produced a potentially world record breaking peach, and then immediately broke their own record. “This has been by far the best year we’ve ever had— just the number of peaches and the quality,� Roy Jacobs Jr. said. “We’ve been picking between 250 to 300 bushel every day.� The quality produced by this exceptional growing season may just be about to pay off, at least where bragging rights are concerned, as both peaches rival the current Guinness world record for heaviest peach. As of now, the world record for heaviest peach is held, appropriately, by an orchard in Fort Valley, Ga., the seat of Peach County. That Early Augustprince variety peach weighed in at 816.46 grams (1 lb. 12 oz.) and has secured the record since 2018. The Jacobs’ first peach with the potential to break the record, picked Aug. 2, was on track to take the title, weighing in on the orchard’s scales at a respectable 875.4 grams (1

By CONNOR ASHLOCK Calhoun News-Herald The County Commissioners met last week on Aug. 6, and among the list of items listed on the agenda, important topics that required discussion included Johnson grass in the county and the county budget for the upcoming fiscal year. Chuck Lanczkowski, the county weed control superintendent, addressed the board concerning the growth of Johnson grass, especially in the south end of the county. “I received two complaints about Johnson grass, and when I receive complaints, I have to investigate those complaints,� Lanczkowski said. When Lanczkowski investigated the complaint, he discovered that the problem was worse than originally thought, thus, he had to come up with a plan to mitigate the noxious weed. Lanczkowski discovered a great deal of the grass between the ferry landing and Brussels. “There were nearly 200 properties involved where I discovered it,� Lanczkowski said. “That runs from seeing a couple stalks of it to large fields of it.� The mitigation of Johnson grass takes place in two phases: Removing what already exists and then keeping it from growing back. In Illinois, marijuana, thistle and Johnson grass are listed as noxious weeds, and action must be taken to prevent their proliferation in an area. “There are places in the state that have had infestations so bad that the only way to handle it was to remove a layer of topsoil and take it to a facility that sanitizes it before bringing it back,� Lanczkowski explained. Thus, it is within the county’s interest to combat the issue before it gets too out of hand. “The commissioners set aside some money in the weed control account and instructed me to start with the larger plots of Johnson grass and any place where someone has complained. We’re going through the process now, which means notifying owners and getting compliance,� Lanczkowski said. Lanczkowski pointed out even though there is a lot of Johnson grass in the county right now, it isn’t an outbreak. “One reason we’re seeing more of the Johnson grass is because there’s some areas being more cultivated than others, so in a field where normally farmers would be planting we

Jury trials during the pandemic will be problematic Grass r e n n u R e g d Ri S

By BILL HOAGLAND I recently received notification from the Circuit Court of Madison County that jury trials are tentatively scheduled to resume in September. Other county venues, presumably including Jersey and Calhoun, are sooner or later going to have to gear up again too. We can’t put it off forever— especially the criminal trials – but attempting to have a traditional jury trial in this pandemic is really going to be problematic. To start the process of conducting a traditional jury trial, the local Circuit Clerk normally sends out notices to a large number of residents in the county to appear for jury duty and from that larger group, a smaller group of people is selected to serve on a jury if they indicate that they are willing and available to serve as jurors. Right there we have our first problem. Some surveys are now suggesting that as many as 60 percent of prospective jurors in some parts of the country do not want to serve during the pandemic, especially senior citizens. And most lawyers would probably agree that if a prospective juror really, really does not want to serve, particularly if they have concerns about being exposed to COVID 19 while attending court in person, they need to be excused from jury duty. These are jurors

who might not be willing to spend the time considering the evidence or otherwise following their responsibilities as a juror; they just want out and that attitude could taint any attempt to have a fair trial. And unfortunately, if an entire block of citizens are not willing to show up for jury duty, can there really be a trial “by your peers?” Maybe not. The second problem has to do with attempting to pick an impartial jury. Generally, this is done in the courtroom after willing jurors are seated in the jury box. Courtrooms are not traditionally set up so that jurors can practice social distancing while sitting in the jury box, so some adjustments would have to be made in that regard. And as far as selecting impartial jurors, that is hard enough under normal circumstances, but what if they are all wearing face masks or worse yet, what if jurors are eventually required to wear both face masks and goggles as has been recently suggested? How could anyone effectively pick a jury when everyone looks and sounds like Darth Vader? Once a jury panel is selected in a traditional trial, they are required to hear the evidence and decide the factual issues. Credibility of the witnesses plays a big part in the jury’s attempt to determine the truth. But what if the witnesses are

CHRONICLE

all wearing masks? Let’s face it: if you can’t see the expressions and demeanor of witnesses as they are testifying, good luck trying to determine their credibility. And what if, during a trial taking several days to conclude, several jurors develop high temperatures? Is the trial suspended until tests can be conducted or does the court proceed without those jurors? Finally, in the traditional jury trial, we have that point in the trial when the jury is sequestered for the purpose of deliberating and deciding the issues they are supposed to decide. Normally, this is done in a relatively small room where the jury is confined until they reach a consensus. There is not much social distancing in a traditional jury room. So are the jurors going to debate the issues outdoors in a local park, with everyone wearing masks and sitting at least six feet apart? And if they are social distancing six feet apart and wearing masks, how can the first juror hear what the twelfth juror is saying unless they are all shouting? I am exaggerating this a bit, but you get the point: where can the jury safely

and effectively deliberate? A few courts, notably in California and Texas, have attempted to conduct a traditional jury trial and it has not gone well—to the point that courts in those states are now attempting to have jury trials on a remote basis with everyone participating via a computer from home. This has not gone well either; not only is it expensive to do everything remotely but there is almost no control over the jurors—some jurors even participating from their bedrooms. We will discuss these non-traditional options in more detail in an upcoming column to see if anything might work. Unfortunately, it is critical that we come up with a solution to this problem soon. ––––––––––––––––––– Q Bill Hoagland has practiced law in Alton for more than 50 years, but he has spent more than 70 years hunting, fishing and generally being in the great outdoors.

Outdoor Truths: Gary Miller

Simply keep climbing to clear those dark times I don’t how many times I have crossed a ridge thinking I was some place that I wasn’t. I don’t how many times I have crested a hill thinking I’ll be able to see something I didn’t. I don’t know how many times I have rounded a bend to discover an additional path to the place I was going. I recognize this truth weekly. One of my hobbies is cycling. I’ve been riding for several years, and sometimes the places I ride are difficult. As a result, I’m always looking around the corner thinking I have reached a certain marker that will give me hope that I’ve almost reached my destination. You may say I’m too unfamiliar with the road, but

I’m not. I’m just not always paying attention. Just this morning, I rounded a curve, thinking I had an additional distance to travel. But I was pleasantly surprised that I was closer than I had thought. Most of the time, this is not the case. Most of the time, I find there’s another hill, another ridge, or another path. And I sigh. Many of you can already identify with my plight. You, however, may be experiencing these events in a more meaningful place. You are hoping the present hill you are climbing is the last one. You are praying the end of the painful journey you have been on is just over the next ridge. You are anticipating this

bend to be the last one. You are hoping the light at the end of the tunnel is actually a light- and an end. You are tired of the fight. I feel for you, and I’m sorry you are going through this dark time. But let me ask you to keep climbing. Keep putting one foot in front of the other, even though you are not sure where the path is leading. Keep moving and keep trusting – even though you are confused. Remember, your understanding of the problem or its solution is not a prerequisite for a good ending. Your trust is all that’s needed. And even that is only needed in a small supply. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean

on your o w n understanding. In all your w a y s acknowle d g e him, and he will make straight your paths,” Solomon said.

Voter registration good so far, despite COVID-19 By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald COVID-19 has prevented the Calhoun County Clerk’s Office from doing some of their voter drives they would normally do ahead of an election. But even still, it appears voter registration is sizable — especially vote-by-mail. “We have had a lot of interested voter participation with our vote-bymail application so far,” Rita Hagen, Calhoun County Clerk, said. Notably, the restrictions regarding the coronavirus prevented those at the clerk’s office from going into the county high schools and register students eligible for the upcoming event. “As a service, we go to the schools to try to get all of the people that are eligible to register to vote before they leave for college,” Hagen said. The amount of seniors who registered to vote depended on the class size, but Hagen said they got about 90 percent of the Brussels seniors and 65 percent of the Calhoun seniors to register to vote through this drive. Although it certainly played its part in getting some local youth registered, it did not drastically shift the participation for the upcoming general election and did not pose much concern from the clerk’s office that is seeing a flurry of registrations. “There are many ways to register

to vote other than that registration drive that we do at the school,” Hagen said. Among the options available to eligible voters, people can register at driver services offices, online at ova. elections.il.gov or through their precinct committeepeople. Vote-by-mail application returns have expanded greatly, as well. Voteby-mail has been encouraged as of late because of COVID-19. Increased vote-by-mail will help to minimize contact between voters and poll workers, Hagen has said. Among the special vote-by-mail provisions for the 2020 general election are: Q All registered voters with an “active” status will receive, by mail, an application for a vote-by-mail ballot; Q Those who registered to vote or updated their registration between March 18 and July 31 will be mailed an application for vote-by-mail ballot; Q The state’s online voter registration site now allows users to request a mail ballot when they register. Ballots will be mailed to applicants who have submitted vote-bymail applications beginning Sept. 24, which is also the first day of early voting. The deadline for applying for a mail ballot is 4:30 p.m. Oct. 29. Ballots must be postmarked no

later than Nov. 3 to be accepted, and properly postmarked ballots will be accepted through Nov. 17. The new law also establishes protocols to ensure proper verification of ballots before they are accepted and to inform voters in a timely manner if their ballot is rejected. This begins with a review of the voter’s signature by a panel of three election judges within two days of receipt of the ballot. A ballot may be rejected for an invalid signature only by unanimous decision of the judges. The ballot may be rejected if two of the three judges agree that: Q The ballot envelope was delivered opened; Q The certification envelope contains no signature; Q The voter has already cast a ballot; Q The voter voted in person on Election Day; Q The voter is not a duly registered voter. If a ballot is rejected based on a signature or lack of signature or because the ballot envelope was delivered opened, the voter must be notified within two days or within one day if the rejection occurs after Election Day. The new law contains provisions for the voter to address these problems.

Still, the Jacobs’ peach has to be certified by Guinness officials before it can break the record, and according to Jacobs, that can be a long process.

The vigils testified to the immense impact Baalman has on the community and the lives he has touched through the years. Lisa Kallal, a friend and fellow educator, weighed in on one of the many ways she’s seen Baalman impact the community. “Mark and his family own Baalman’s Produce in Hardin,” Kallal said. “He employs numerous young men and women from our community to help pick, sort and sell produce. There is a wall in his produce shed that has the names of people that have helped Mark on the farm. “Looking at that wall was very profound. I realized that not only does Mark teach kids how to work as a team, play well together, promote physical activity; but he also

evidence, independent witness statements and weigh the peach on a certified scale. Now that that’s all been finished, they have to wait up to 12 weeks to hear back whether or not their attempt was successful. “We could’ve paid $800 to speed up the process, or for $1,200, they’d send out an official,” Jacobs said with a chuckle. Opting instead to wait patiently, the same method that produced the monster peach, the Jacob’s crew and the rest of the county will just have to wait and see whether Calhoun will be the new home of the world’s heaviest peach.

In the meantime, to help offset some of the expenses of food, travel and lodging for the family, accounts have been opened at the Bank of Kampsville and Bank of Calhoun County for anyone who would like to deposit any amount of money to assist the family of Mr. B. “Often, in a world of picking sides, pandemics, and frustration, a common goal will bring people together,” Kallal expressed. “The goal is to come united to lift Mark, his family, his friends and doctors up in prayer. His recovery may take a little time, but this community will continue to make it a priority.”

Blessed Trinity working out financial game plan

By CONNOR ASHLOCK Calhoun News-Herald On June 16, the Batchtown, Meppen and Brussels picnics were all canceled during a meeting of the Parish Financial Council and the respective picnic committees. Since those picnics are a major source of funding for the churches of St. Barbara, Joseph and Mary, other avenues of fundraising were explored by the committees, with two different projects decided upon. The churches would initiate a letter campaign, mailing out letters encouraging families in the Blessed Trinity Parish to contribute $300 in an effort to raise $90,000 for the parish, and the other financial endeavor involved hosting a raffle. So far, the letter campaign has been fruitful, with approximately 46 percent of the goal having been attained as of Aug. 4 with $41,175 having been collected. The raffle, though, kicked off with ticket sales beginning last week. The purpose of the raffle is to supplement the loss of what would’ve been made at the picnics this year and is supplied with funds from businesses and organizations that supported the picnics through their advertising dollars, which were collected prior to the picnic cancelations. The raffle drawing will take place on Nov. 10 at the parish’s monthly finance meeting. Folks will not need to be present to win.

Happy birthday Kale. Have a great year. Irene Wallendorf visited Montauck State Park with her family, Keith and Lisa Roth and Keith and Hope Klocke. They had such a good time cooking and enjoying themselves that they weren’t ready to come home. Fred and Marsha Graham and Vera Klockenkemper were Sunday guests of Bill and Elaine Titus. Wilma Krysl entertained Gene and Juliann Underhill, Terry Stumpf and Elaine Titus Sunday afternoon. Michaela and Brian Eilerman helped their dad, Kenny,

Virgil and Angeline and family went to Montauck State Park over the weekend. They had great meals that were cooked by their boys who are excellent cooking fish, barbecue and many other tasty dishes. They had a wonderful time and caught a lot of fish. It was a special time with memories of a great time together.

Q Point News

The past week, our area enjoyed pleasant temperatures in the 80’s until the weekend. Now, it is back in the 90’s with humidity. On Saturday night, a bad wind and rain storm hit the area. On my way to church on Sunday, I noticed some trees down, lots of limbs and some damage to crops. My rain gauge had 5 inches in it, while others had 6 inches. Way too much rain in such a short time! I was a dog sitter from FridaY through Tuesday last week. John and Julie Carnes, Lydia and Caleb spent five days in Lake of the Ozarks. They enjoyed swimming, fishing and just relaxing. They didn’t feel safe to venture out into the area so either cooked their meals at the condo or picked up orders from local restaurants. On Friday, my luncheon guests were Cyndi Axford of Chesterfield and John Carnes of Edwardsville. Many thanks to them both for all their help while here. John mowed and did trim work, and Cyndi helped me around the house and also washed many windows, inside and out. It was a beautiful day so they got lots accomplished. One day last week, Jill Rose and daughter Claire of Brussels spent the day with their sister and aunt, Allison Moenning, who lives in Germantown. They spent the afternoon at Carlyle Lake and beach area where Clair enjoyed especially time

playing in the sand and water. Sounds like they all had a great day together. Becky Caselton, Melinda Wieneke and Carole Seiferman helped Paulette Hartman celebrate her 70th birthday last Wednesday. They all enjoyed lunch at Josephine’s in Godfrey and a wonderful visit as well. Congratulations to Shawn Ohlendorf and Tasha Lewis of Hardin on the birth of a baby boy on Aug. 5. The infant, weighing 6 lbs., 15 oz., has been given the name Drake Marvin. Grandparents are John and Mary Ohlendorf of Brussels and great grandma Betty Rose of Golden Eagle. Owen and Vicki Hattemar of Perdido Beach, Ala., arrived last week to visit with his parents, Larry and Marcia Hattemar of Brussels. While here, they will also be attending the wedding of their nephew, Tyler Friedel, to Adrienne Eberlin next Saturday. Marie Held is still getting lots of publicity on her recent 100th birthday. The August issue of Catholic Times featured photos of her and her family, along with a wonderful write-up. I visited her one evening last week to go through her many beautiful and thoughtful cards she received. We got through 75 of them, and I’m sure it will take another evening to see at least 75 more. She is such a wonderful lady, and I can see why she is thought of so highly.

Birthday Blessings this week to my daughter-in-law, Julie Carnes, my daughter, Shelly Scherer, and my grandson, Caleb Carnes. Also, Elaine Eberlin, Gloria Marienau, Larry Hattemar, twins Jerrica and Jacob LaMarsh, Doris Tepen, Lavern Kinder, Mason Caselton, Keith Kinder, Tom Schulze, Logan Kinder, Barb Tepen, Roberta Hurley, Tony Caselton and all others celebrating their natal day at this time. Happy anniversary to Keith and Carol Pohlman and all other couples celebrating a wedding anniversary this week. So happy to see Marcy Klockenkemper is back home and has resumed her weekly Batchtown column. Marcy, I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy and complete recovery. –––––––––––––––––– PRAYER FOR THE DAY: Lord, as we begin a new week, help us to look upon the days ahead as anything but routine. May they be filled not with drudgery but with delight. Not with grumbling about our-situation in life, but with praises to You for Your love to us. May our interactions with those we meet be patient and grace filled. As we go through each day, help us to remember how much You love us. Guide our footsteps and keep us and our loved ones safe your care. In Jesus name, Amen.

We’ve had a beautiful week here in Kampsville, but it’s been a quiet one. It is nice seeing so many using the boat access and campers enjoying our village’s campground and Becker Bottom Resort. Just a reminder: please slow down in town. We have lots of kids on scooters and bikes, and we want to keep them safe. Our Doggy Park is also available. I got a delicious milk shake Saturday and then let my dog enjoy the doggy park. Sometimes, you just have to find the little things to do. This is a scary uncertain time. We, as adults, need to set the tone for the littles. I remind myself during this uncertain time of something

my Aunt Rosemary Johnson told me anytime I needed to hear it. “This too shall pass,” she would say. Calhoun Entertainment Company will be presenting “Peter Pan” at the Calhoun Fair Grounds. I will keep you updated about dates and times. You won’t want to miss this! Happy 35th Anniversary to Deb and Eddie Joe Klunk on Aug. 10. Also celebrating an anniversary this week Albert and Cherye Mellenthin celebrated their anniversary on Aug. 9 and Rob and Kim Parmenter on the 8. Happy birthday to my grandson, Ren, who turned 3 on Aug. 7. He celebrated by visiting the zoo, Raging Rivers and a pirate birthday

party at his house with family and friends. Happy Birthday on the ninth to Diana Young. Remind her get your tickets from the American Legion auxiliary for the raffles to be drawn on Veterans Day tickets can be purchased at the Kampsville Legion or from an Auxiliary member. Don’t forget cards for Mr. B can be dropped off at my house or the Pavilion, and we will get them to him. Please add Matt Zini to your prayers and continue prayers for Eileen Gardner , Sami Angelo, Cindy Smith, Joe Gress, Darren Kress, Jim Hill, Kurt Roth, Mattias Baker, Linda Herkert, Bill Schumann, Cathy Taul and Mark Baalman.

Hardin, Illinois

Happy Birthday Corner

100 Years Ago August 19, 1920 August 11, 1920 will long be remembered in the annals of Calhoun County agriculture for the day made big by the meeting of a big number of Calhoun county’s farmers for the big purpose of the organization of the Calhoun County Farm Bureau. The farm bureau move has come to be recognized as an essential thing in every agricultural county in the United States where farmers believe in keeping up-todate and are permeated with the spirit of progressive and better agriculture and all that it implies. Calhoun is one of the counties that is thoroughly awake and accordingly, Aug. 11, 1920 was the day set for her to take her place as the eighty-sixth county of the state of Illinois to form a Farm Bureau organization. In Calhoun there are two essential industries: horticulture and agriculture. Our farmers prosper just in the proportion that their crops are a success and the various towns of the county draw their resources from the prosperity of the farmers around them, so of course Hardin heartily welcomed and encouraged this meeting of farmers...

75 Years Ago August 23, 1945 A minesweeper intended for use in the war, built at one of the boat construction yards up the river, passed by Hardin on its way to the Gulf of Mexico last Thursday. The ship is one of hundreds which were built up the river and which have passed down by Hardin during the past three years. The ships included submarines, LSTs, LCTs and many other Navy and Army craft, all ocean-going vessels. Though the boats were lighter than ordinary ocean-going vessels, they made the trips across the Atlantic and Pacific oceans carrying full crews and war materials. Just the boats on which work has passed a certain stage will now be finished, and

Hardin residents have just about seen the last of the vessels for the present. 50 Years Ago August 20, 1970 Calhoun County is beautiful. For the most past is has been clean. Clean air and free of litter. But with more and more city folks coming to the Kingdom for weekends and vacations, it’s time we put our foot down on the problem of litter. August is Litter Month, as sponsored by the United Brewers’ Association. August is a good month to resolve to keep Calhoun County clean. For example, the litter barrels put out by the State Conservation Department at all boat accesses and fishing areas are to be used for litter by the visitors. But we learn that the city dwellers who come to Calhoun have been using them to put their week’s garbage which they have brought along with them from the metroplex, and the taxpayers are paying for this garbage disposal. Let’s keep Calhoun clean, but can we at the same time use the county as the cities’ dumps? 25 Years Ago August 23, 1995 After opening up the Calhoun County Apple Festival last year on Thursday evening, the street parade will return to the Sunday time slot for the 1995 fair. The parade will begin at noon on Sunday, September 10 with August and Evelyn Nolte of Brussels as the grand marshalls. This year’s theme is “Showboatin.” The parade lineup will again originate at the new Hardin Marina parking lot on Orchard Street next to the Illinois Riverdock restaurant at 10:30 a.m. The parade route goes from Orchard Street to the fairgrounds. There is parking available north of the bridge in several locations. “We encourage spectators to take advantage of the entire parade route,” said Judy Fuhler, organizer.

U.S. Rep. Davis tests positive for COVID-19 By JARAD JARMON Calhoun News-Herald Among the growing list of individuals who have contracted COVID-19 is our own representative to the U.S. House. It was announced Wednesday, Aug. 5, that U.S. Rep. Rodney Davis, R-Illinois, has tested positive for COVID-19. “This morning, I tested positive for COVID-19,” Davis said Wednesday. “Since the beginning of this pandemic, I have taken my temperature twice daily because serving in Congress means I interact with many people, and it’s my duty to protect the health of those I serve. This morning, my temperature clocked in at 99 degrees Fahrenheit, which is higher than normal for me.” Because of the high temperature, he and his wife, Shannon, received a test that morning. “While my test came back positive, my wife’s test came back negative. My staff who I’ve worked with in-person this week have received negative tests as well,” Davis said. Other than a higher-thannormal temperature, Davis is not showing any symptoms at this time and reportedly feels “fine.” Davis’s office is contacting constituents he has met with in-person within the previous 48 hours, per CDC guidelines. “My staff and I take COVID-19 very seriously. My wife is a nurse and a cancer survivor, which puts her

RODNEY DAVIS in an at-risk category like so many Americans. My office and I have always followed and will continue to follow CDC guidelines, use social distancing and wear masks or face coverings when social distancing cannot be maintained,” he said. It was announced that public events his office has planned for the coming days have been postponed until Davis receives a negative test. “I will continue to serve my constituents virtually from home while I quarantine. Our district offices throughout central and southwestern Illinois remain open for constituents as well,” he said. Aaron DeGroot, communications director for Davis’s office, said the event in Jerseyville still took place at the same place and time, just with a virtual twist. It was announced last week that Davis would have Open Office Hours from 9-11 a.m.

at the Jerseyville City Hall, located at 115 E Prairie St. A Davis staff member would be present at the open office hours at city hall to facilitate the virtual meetings. “During these challenging times, protecting the public health is my highest priority,” Davis added. “If you’re out in public, use social distancing, and when you can’t social distance, please wear a mask. All of us must do our part. That’s what it will take to get through this pandemic.” Davis resides in Taylorville with his wife, Shannon, and their three children, Toryn, Clark and Griffin. In related news, the Jersey County Health Department confirmed six new positive cases of COVID-19 Monday, bringing the total number of active cases to 35. So far, there has been a total of 116 cases in the county, 79 of whom have since recovered and two who have died. As of Wednesday, there are three current active cases in Calhoun County. In Calhoun, there have been a total of nine cases since this pandemic struck the states. Six have since recovered. In Greene County, there are 39 active cases. There is a total of 59 in that county that has tested positive for novel COVID-19, 20 who have since recovered. Looking at the state level, there has been 195,399 who have tested positive out of a little under 2.9 million test that were administered. Across the state, 7,637 have died as a result of COVID-19.

Ren turns 3 Ren Kyle Taul turned 3-years-old on Aug. 7. He celebrated this past weekend with a trip to the zoo, Raging Rivers and a Captain Hook pirate party at his home with his family and friends. Ren is the son of Lindsey Taul and Andrew Taul of Kampsville. Grandparents are Diane and the late Jeff Brangenberg and Terry and Cathy Taul, all of Kampsville. His great grandparents are Evah Jane Powell of Kampsville and Carol Brangenberg of Batchtown. Ren has an older sister Reagan, 12, and and older brother Hayden, 8. Ren would like to thank everyone who wished him a happy birthday.

St. Jude Novena May the sacred heart of Jesus be adored, glorified, loved and preserved, throughout the world now and forever. Sacred heart of Jesus, pray for us. St. Jude, worker of miracles, pray for us. St. Jude, helper of helpless, pray for us. Thank you, St. Jude KS

If those good habits are not developed early on, it’s much harder to develop them when we are older. And whether we have inculcated virtue from our youth or not, we are all tossed back and forth by the winds of selfish desire and vice. Even when we know what the right thing to do is, we are often tempted to do the opposite. Knowing that we should return the dropped or misplaced ten-dollar bill to its rightful owner, we are still tempted to slip it in our pocket and keep it for ourselves. If we have been raised right, however, we won’t sleep well. Likewise, in so many areas of our life, we know we should be temperate when it comes to eating and drinking, and all of our

appetites, but we are still tempted to overdo it. The virtue of constancy is in some ways a virtue which helps us stay on the path of virtue, telling us to steer clear of vice and always do the right thing, despite obstacles in our path. Perseverance is the virtue that allows us to keep striving to do the right thing, despite the difficulty of continuing the act itself, while constancy is the virtue of continuing to do the right thing despite external difficulties. We get distracted, we lose patience, and often we just want to do the easy thing, but constancy keeps us on the right path. – Christopher Simon

Pike, Calhoun agency search results in burglary arrest After a five-day search, Kyle Pressnall, 34, of Pleasant Hill was arrested July 27 at a residence on Bee Creek, near Pearl. Pressnall’s arrest was announced in a joint press release by the Pike County Sheriff’s Office and the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office. The search for Pressnall began July 22, when the Pike County Sheriff’s Department executed a court-authorized search warrant at a residence located in the 400 block of Mill Street in Milton in Pike County, in reference to a burglary, theft and methamphetamine investigation. Upon law enforcement’s arrival at the residence, Pressnall, was reportedly seen leaving

The chase continued south down Route 100 for several miles but was terminated due to safety concerns around Panther Creek in Calhoun County. The Pike County Sheriff ’s Department and Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office worked together throughout the next several days in an attempt to locate Pressnall. In addition to the arrest warrant, Pressnall was a suspect in burglary and theft cases throughout

KYLE PRESSNALL Pike and Calhoun counties. Pressnall’s vehicle was recovered from a field between Crooked Creek Road and State Highway 96 in Calhoun County. With the assistance of Illinois State Police Air Operations and local

“I just wanted to recognize a few workers at Jerseyville Estates that I don’t know what I would do without. My mother, Rosalie at Jerseyville Estates has been a resident since February 2018. Tammy was so helpful when mom toured the facility. Elly Coonrod was helpful yesterday as well. Yesterday we had a meeting with Angie Uzzetta and she was so compassionate and kind to my mother. It is always genuine with Angie, Elly and Tammy. They help families make the best of a bad situation. Especially during the Covid pandemic.� ~ Mary Bartlett
