Mumps documented in Greene County By CArmeN eNSiNger Greene Prairie Press

It has been more than 20 years since any cases of mumps have been reported in Greene County, but the Greene County Health Department is reporting one confirmed case and another suspected case. Both of the cases involve adults between the ages of 25 and 35. According to Greene County Health Department Public Health Administrator Ruth Ann Flowers, suspected and confirmed cases have been reported in surrounding counties since January. Morgan County is especially hard hit with 19 reported cases and 10 suspected cases, since January when the outbreak started. Mumps is a contagious viral disease that is spread from person to person through contact with respiratory secretions such as saliva from an infected person. When an infected person coughs or sneezes, the droplets can enter

the eyes, nose or mouth of another person. Mumps can be spread easily to someone in close contact, such as having a conversation with someone standing three feet away. It can also be spread by sharing food and drinks. The virus can also survive on surfaces and then be spread after contact in a similar manner. Before the development of a vaccine to prevent mumps, it was a common childhood disease worldwide. It is still a threat in developing countries and outbreaks can and do still occur sporadically in developed countries like the United States. The disease has re-emerged in the county after more than two decades of dormancy. “People haven’t gotten vaccinated,” Flowers said. “You have people who are against vaccinations and then you have someone come here from another country that doesn’t require vaccinations and they infect people over here.” A person infected with mumps is conta-

gious from approximately six days before the onset of symptoms until around nine days after symptoms start. “Up to half of the people who get mumps have very mild or no signs or symptoms at all and therefore they do not know they were infected,” Flowers said. “Mumps has an incubation period of 16-18 days which means symptoms may appear 16-18 days after exposure to the virus, but the period when symptoms may appear can range anywhere from 12 to 25 days after contact with someone with the infection.” The most common symptoms include fever, headache, muscle aches, tiredness, loss of appetite, swollen and tender salivary glands under the ears on one or both sides. The most common preventative measure against mumps is a vaccination with a mumps vaccine. This vaccine may be given separately or as part of the MMR immunization vaccine, which also protects against measles and

rubella. Children should receive their first dose of the vaccine at 12 to 15 months of age and usually the second dose at 4 to 6 years of age. “We are recommending that parents of pre-school children considering getting their child the second dose of the vaccine anytime after 13 months of age but under six years of age,” Flowers said. “It needs to be at least 28 days since their first vaccination was given. This may help increase protection and the second vaccination will count as the requirement for kindergarten and would not need to be repeated.” All adults born during or after 1957 should have documentation of at least one dose of MMR. Adults at higher risk, such as university students, health care personnel, international travelers and persons with potential mumps outbreak exposure should have documentation of two doses of mumps vaccine or other proof of immunity to mumps.

Madson was voted Coach of the Year at the Rotary Girls All-Star Basketball Game in Carlinville. According to Cary Despain with Country Financial, the sponsor of the competition, the coach of the year is chosen by the group of radio personalities and media writers who cover the event.

“This is something we have sponsored for the past 12 years,” Despain, who is located in the Carrollton branch, said. “It’s really great that I get to present this award to someone from right here in Carrollton.” The Lady Hawks finished the season 25-7 and Madson said he believes (See, madson, A2)

Greenfield hires director of maintenance By CArmeN eNSiNger Greene Prairie Press

In an effort to shore up its maintenance department, the Greenfield School Districted hired Greenfield native Ron Plogger as its director of maintenance at a special meeting March 27. Plogger will work alongside Sam Walden, who is director of transportation and has performed multiple other duties for the district, including acting

as maintenance director. “Right now, Sam does the work of about three people,” Greenfield Superintendent Kevin Bowman said. “We reduced our custodial staff by one two years ago and we have had custodians out all year long. While we have made do, we need to have someone who is able to do what Sam does.” Bowman said Walden has been with the district for more than 30 years and the day will come when he will want to retire.

New cable franchise in Carrollton By CArmeN eNSiNger Greene Prairie Press Carrollton cable subscribers will soon see their cable company change after the Carrollton City Council approved a resolution transferring the franchise from Cass Communications to New Wave Communications. Mark Clark, a representative of New Wave, explained to the council about his company. “We are a cable operation that specializes in serving rural markets like this one,” he said. “We currently serve rural markets in five different states including Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Texas and Louisiana. What we do is we buy smaller, more rural cable operations and upgrade them to what you would typically get in a larger city.” New Wave’s corporate office is based in Sikeston, Mo., and it currently has cable operations in Taylorville,

Gillespie, Greenville and several other communities around Illinois. “Basically, what we are planning to do is to tie the city of Carrollton along with Jerseyville, Brighton and a couple other communities into our Taylorville master head end,” Clark said. For the residents of Carrollton, the franchise transfer will give customers approximately 10 more expanded basic analog channels, 54 more digital basic channels, 46 more HD channels along with high speed data capability of up to 50 megabytes per second down and 5 mps up. Currently the mps rate is at 15 down and 4 up. “Our prices for high speed data are a little bit lower than what you are currently paying, which is probably not something you expected to hear,” Clark said. “The video is going to be a little more, but we are offering a lot more programming.”

The transfer is expected to be complete by April 30 and some time between June and July New Wave will convert it over to its fiber optic system. “Fiber optics are already laid to your town but between our Taylorville master head and here is not, but we are in the process of permitting that,” Clark said. “It is going to feed from Gillespie over here. We are in the process of building that down to Jerseyville and Jerseyville will tie in and come up on the fiber up to here.” While fiber optics carry the signal to the edge of town, coaxial cable carries it to each individual home, something Clark said is going to be addressed by New Wave. “Eventually, our ultimate plan is to get fiber optics right to your home,” Clark said. “The fiber optics feed to a node and it will feed out to 500 homes.” C

Letters to the editor AHC; Making Magic - March Mayhem Old Timers’ Basketball Game TO THE EDITOR: “Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful!” Colossians 3:15 It was magic, to see friends who were athletes, cheerleaders, fans and even the new-bees enjoying the games! A friend reminded us that after the winter that we have had, it was pure joy to come into the school and remember the “good times!” For a brief few hours, we cheered! The day began with a glitch with the shirts, but before long, the blessings that were received far out-weighed the issues. Around 2 p.m., we headed down to the gym with Michael. It didn’t take too long for him to realize that although he wanted to be there, it was much too crowded and noisy for him. We know that he knew it was all for his research and we pray someday we will come up with a cure that will allow him to enjoy these moments as we did! As the gym began to fill up, it was apparent that we needed to make as much room as possible and quickly; but we have been told that some people left because there wasn’t any seats and we are so sorry for that! The excitement started the minute the team members started arriving, the cheerleaders, fans with pictures and uniforms, our amazing referees Mr. Greer and Al Merriman, our returning coaches, Mr. Bill Rees and Mr. Dale Baird, the media, our gracious helpers, Coach Moore, Kent Coultas and JC Fryman at the score bench, Steve Moore, our announcer…and then the starting line ups! At 2:45 p.m., the first game between the Manchester Blackhawks and Patterson Panthers was underway; by half time the score was tied 20-20; 50/50 winners and the half court shot began which continued at every half time. Dana Garrett, the captain of the Blackhawks, recalled the plays ran by Coach Baird like it was yesterday! Referee Greer allowed Player Schafer to move in at his first attempt at a free throw, but we truly think that just messed up his range! The final score: Panthers 32; Blackhawks 31; you can’t get any closer than that! The second game between the Alsey Red Devils and the Winchester Wolverines was also tied at halftime: 11-11! Alsey having the most players; soon remembered Mr. Rees’ coaching techniques and were quickly assigned to the A, B and C teams! Coach Smith had the “youngest” team which seemed to matter at the end of the game with a victory of 35 to 28! It wasn’t hard to realize that it would soon be time to eat. The gym was crowded and warm so we opened the doors and that wonderful smell of pork chops and hamburgers came filtering in. The VFW and Grandma Beth were ready for supper and the cake walk would soon be on its way. Jewel Palmer and her game began bringing in those wonderful cakes and the crowd was hooked. It was wonderful to see everyone hanging around and enjoying the games and food, but

our second complaint of the day, we ran out of pork chops! The 3rd and 4th place game against Alsey and Manchester was tense from the get go! The players were pumped and soon the fans were on their feet. As always, the rival began! It is still undetermined which team has more spirit, but the score conclusion was Alsey 27 and Manchester 25. One of the best parts of the day was seeing and visiting with Mr. Raabe! At the conclusion of this game, the Color Guard displayed our nation’s colors, veterans were recognized and the National Anthem was sang by Joan Garrett and Judy Bigley. Teachers, coaches, staff, players and cheerleaders were announced from all schools and memories were shared. Mr. Barrow was also remembered through a story told by Mr. Greer; he would visit his father and see Mr. Barrow and would always ask if he remembered the Alsey Red Devils. Mr. Barrow always answered with a smile and a comment about how good the food was! Helen Baird recalled her cheerleading days from 1944-1946. Coach Rees commented that “his kids” still had heart. The Winchester Wolverines walked away with the “Top Dog” title by defeating Patterson Panthers; 39 to 26! Patterson, having the fewest members, made up for it with heart! The raffle prizes were given away at half time; the grand prize winner was Mary Wardell Other prize winners included Steve Moore-wine rack; Judy Bigleyslab of ribs; Denny Moore and Dawn Branham-gift certificate from Turner Tree Service; Betty HowardBuffalo Wild Wings gift certificate; Evan Schineker-A Gaudio Deer sign; Shirly Jaquot-$100 in memory of Gary Pence; Rhonda Casey and Mike Hopper-lawn chairs from Permabound Books; Doe Kemper1-year membership to Plum Creek Golf Course; Jeannene Koslosky-cooler; Mandy Hatchel-Cardinal blanket; Mike McCarthy-three-month membership to the YMCA, Jacksonville; Ed Korte-$100 in memory of Ken and Tommy Garrett; Janice Jefferson and Brenda Bettis-stepping stones by Jewel Palmer; Victor Stice-F 150 Raptor racing truck. To add to the success of the day there was over $14,000 raised for the research of Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood; AHCKIDS.org! We still have some outstanding bills so what was cleared is undetermined, but all areas were successful! To sum up the event…thanks seems inadequate, but to have so many continue to encourage and support our cause makes us humbly grateful! We could quit and say that, thanks to you, we have done our part; life is too hard…but instead of focusing on the disease, we are determined for a cure by the grace of God! Will there be another reunion? We pray, as well as a cure, there will! God bless and keep smiling! THE RYANS Dave, Cindy, Rachel and Michael

Appreciates donations to rescued pets TO THE EDITOR: Thanks to the Roodhouse/White Hall Girl Scouts and the Roodhouse Public Library (and the public) for their dog/cat food/supplies drives.

In the last conference game of the season, the Lady Hawks fell to West Central. “We had lost to Calhoun earlier in the season and that was a tough loss to take, but that last loss to West Central up at their place really turned us around,” Madson said. “The next day at practice it was a totally different ball team I

I think everything goes back to that game and it was kind of a blessing to us to have lost that game cause it really opened the eyes of our girls and we got down to business after that.” Madson was also chosen Co-Coach of the Year by the Illinois Coaches Association for District 17. He will be honored in Bloomington on April 26. Madson is honored with the recognition he is receiving in his first year as head coach at Carrollton. “I never dreamed that I would get that accomplishment in my first year here as coach,” he said. “But I am very humbled to be receiving those honors.”

GREENE PRAIRIE PRESS Hard to believe it has already been a year without Schuyler

Wednesday, April 9, 2014

Fraser. Thursday, April 17: Dan Howard and Renee Symoure. Friday, April 18: Pam Keller and Pat Taylor.

I haven’t written my column in quite a while because, quite frankly, the most important person in my life was no longer around. On April 5, 2013, my beloved Chihuahua son, Schuyler, passed over to the Rainbow Bridge - more commonly referred to as “doggy heaven.” To be honest, it seems like only yesterday that I was holding him in my arms for the last time. It can’t be an entire year since the most important person in my life left me. I was lucky - I was given a second chance with my little boy. So many times we lose loved ones without really recognizing how much they mean to us until after they are gone. I was given 18 months to appreciate every second with my little boy. I can remember the first time he had his first seizure. I thought he was a goner. As I stayed up all night holding him and praying so hard, I miraculously found a website I had made for him when he was six months old. It contained a bunch of old photos of him that I had forgotten had even existed. I was afraid to go to sleep that night and I made Sky a promise that I would be there for him until the very end. He would not die alone like my mother had done so many years before. I also made a promise to make the most of every second I had with him. From that point on he went with me everywhere. If I had to go to a basketball game, he went right along. If I didn’t take him in with me in his diaper bag, I left him in the car in his igloo house with his heater disk and went out to the car every half an hour to start it up to warm it up for him. Believe it or not, that igloo house stayed right at 75 to 80 degrees even when it was 10 degrees out. There were many times when I thought I had lost him, only to thank God the next morning for letting me be with my beloved boy for one more day. Then, out of the blue, I find this tiny little Chihuahua who needs a home. At first I don’t want her because I promised Sky I would never get another dog until he passed. Lucky for me, I have very influential friends who see that this is a sign and simply won’t let me ignore it. Peaches enters into my life. She’s only 15 months old, but she has been shuffled from home to home and it’s obvious she needs someone to love her and be there for her for the long haul.

Reform bill

(Continued from A1) funding from the state and redistribute those state funds to other schools in need. The bill calls for a phased implementation of the new funding model over the next three years. Calhoun Community Unit School District 40 superintendent Kate Sievers said the bill would be a great thing for the school district located between the Illinois and Mississippi rivers. “I think there has to be a better way to fund schools,” Sievers said. “If we want to work towards education, making it fair and equitable for all students, we need to change the funding formula.” But not only does the bill intend to distribute from wealthier districts to the poorer ones, there is also a clause weighing how much is spent on student transportation, funding for which has been difficult for rural districts like Calhoun and Jersey Community Unit District No. 100. District 100 has one of the largest geographic districts in the state, housing 54 bus routes and tallying mileage each week equal to the circumference of the Earth. Superintendent Lori Hopkins said transportation funding for her district under the new bill could be a great benefit to Jersey 100. “With the northern school districts there are other transportation avenues for them so the school districts aren’t paying for it, whereas [for] your southern districts, it is a part of the funding for the school districts,” Hopkins said, “And therefore, the need is greater.” Ron Edwards, Pleasant Hill Community Unit School District 3 superintendent, said transportation differences between rural districts and those in or around Chicago are drastic. “Transportation is an afterthought for them. For us downstate districts, it’s a top priority,” Edwards said. He said something does need to be

While Sky sleeps in my arm, she is more than happy to sleep on my shoulder. The day he passed, she waited patiently on the couch until I came home from the vets. I held my Sky for six hours after he died and she never once made a move to come over. It’s like she knew I was saying my last goodbyes. When I came back from the vets and sank down in the hall in tears, she cried right along with me. We bonded at that moment and I knew that Sky had passed on to her how I was her responsibility now. There were special moments within the last year in which I felt Sky was still with me. but none more so than a couple weeks ago. My friends have feral cats and a couple of them had kittens. One of them was found frozen. I tried my best to revive it, but it died. As we buried it, I told him to look for Schuyler when he got to Rainbow Bridge. The next day, on a very cold day, this cardinal appeared in my driveway. I found it strange because I hadn’t seen one all winter. Later that day I read a post on facebook that said that the appearance of a cardinal was a signal that someone who had passed was thinking about us and sending us a message. I felt such a feeling of calmness at that moment and on April 5, three of them appeared. It was like he was sending me a message. That evening I spent reminiscing with loved ones as I looked at photos of Sky when he was younger. As I look back, I realize how lucky I was to have been given a second chance to appreciate my Sky. I appreciated every single second I got to spend with my little boy from that perilous first night and I got to keep my promise to him in that I promised to be there for him until the end. I still miss Sky so much, but when I look into the eyes of Peaches, I know I’m not alone. Everything happens for a reason – we might not know or understand the reason when it happens, but it will, one day, be revealed to us. Carmen Ensinger is a reporter for the Greene Prairie Press.

done to fix the inequity in school funding in Illinois, but worries Manar’s bill won’t have a lot of weight considering none of the Republicans on the committee who formulated SB16 attended the press conference announcing its introduction to the Senate. Sievers had similar concerns, worrying the bill would not even be brought up for a vote, despite its positive impact on rural downstate public school districts, which see a disparity in funding compared to those near Chicago. The inequality in funding is most easily represented by how much each school district pays per pupil. According to the Illinois Report Card, a website tracking public school district data for testing, attendance and other factors, Pleasant Hill CUSD 3 instructional spending per student is $5,670. Using the same site, Jersey CUSD 100 has instructional costs of $5,566, Carrollton CUSD 1 spends $4,362 per student for instruction, Calhoun CUSD 40 has a $5,954 instructional expense per student and Winchester CUSD 1 has an instructional cost of approximately $5,475 per student. Comparatively, the City of Chicago School District 299 spends $8,376 per student for instruction. And though it spends some of the most money per student in the state, Seneca Township High School District 160 – enrollment for which is a little more than 470 – has $11,433 instructional spending per student. The state average for instructional spending is $6,974, and operational expenses per student show just as wide a disparity between Illinois public school districts in the collar counties compared to those in southern Illinois. After its introduction to the Senate April 1, SB16 has its first committee hearing April 8 by the executive subcommittee on special issues.

(Continued from A1) Bowman said following the retirement of a custodian two years ago, because of funding issues, the district decided not to replace him. The district went from two custodians, one day and one night, at the elementary to only one with Walden picking up the extra duties when needed. “Basically, we have had a need for a long time and we have managed to last as long as we could,” Bowman said. “We just feel we are going to run out of time if we don’t take some action now.” Plogger brings a lot of knowledge to the district. “He is someone with a lot of experience in a lot of different areas,” Bowman said. “He fits the needs of the position we have because we wanted our director of maintenance not only to be somebody in a management role, but somebody that is going to know how to do these jobs

and be able to do them when someone is out.” Director of maintenance will be in charge of preventative maintenance in the district along with getting the fields ready for games, mowing, etc. “This is a big job that is going to keep him going in a lot of different directions,” Bowman said. “We are going to be able to do a lot more of the work here with our staff instead of having to make calls all the time to have somebody outside coming in so that is really going to be a benefit, as well. Bowman said he was pleased with how the maintenance and custodial departments have managed. “Our maintenance and custodial departments have done an excellent job, but at some point you can only do that for so long and we needed some help,” he said. “I think Ron is going to be a big asset to our district. We are really pleased to have a quality hire in Ron Plogger.

Calvary Baptist Church

GREENFIELD NEWS By MARY LOVE HAMMON

A lady speaker on The Hour of Power said that for years she had been a hoarder - she hoarded 200 pounds of sugar and flour around her waist. She joined Weight Watchers, now she weighs 130 pounds and wears a size 8. A tale of Rod Rives and Clifton Hammon: Rod Rives was the only person that called Clifton “Cliffie”. When Clifton started to school, Rod stopped the childish nickname. Saturday Clifton said, “I always remember Rod dressed “fit to kill”. Shoes shined, white shirt, tie and suit. Mr. Metcalf, Bunny Thornton, Bud Spencer, Smiley Jackson and Don Chapman were his neighborhood friends - grandpa and Fred Pewter. The telephone rang. It was Rod Rives who said, “Send Cliffie over, I want to do some horse trading.” Clifton and his dog Rex went over to Rod’s Welding Shop behind their home. Minnie and Mildred Wagner were overseeing from the north, Ruthie Armold from the south - his wife, Gladys and Grandma Caroline from the north (sidewalks). My brother Elmer and his wife were here from California and were astonished at the neighborhood watch. Grandpa Love (our dad) explained that Clifton was the first baby born in the neighborhoods in 10 years. Clifton came home and went to pulling Rexie dog in his silver wagon. Rod persisted and Clifton would say, “I’ll trade, but my money goes into the Carrollton Bank for my college education when I’m grown. Clifton brought home a pedal racing style metal car that he metal brushed to the surfaces. Brother put on safety glasses and nose guard upon him; his dad gave to him a helmet. Clifton sprayed the car silver. Rod teased him saying, “You owe me five dollars.” Clifton had “Rodney” make out a title and receipt. Rod was a licensed welder. He and Dale built a dandy trailer to hook onto our John Deere lawn mower. Tonight my niece Vickie Robinson went to Dr. Watts’ Memorial, Alice Orchid was staying with my sister. She talked with me for a while. She is a young widow. Her husband John was a friend of Richard Robinson. After spending a few days with her sister, Beverly McCollum Still, Lilas Lohr and her three grandchildren returned to their home in Boonesville, Ind. While in Greenfield, Lilas spent quality time with her sister Linda Pohlman and family, brother Gary and wife Elizabeth McCollum and Gillespie cousins. One afternoon she drove cousin Will Jennings to Heritage Nursing Home in Carlinville to see his wife Mary, who will be having a birthday. When Will described this to me, I listened, I patiently said, “ I know all about it. My mother died over there. Dale and I spend each day with her. Dale baked her an angel food cake - after all, she had taught him to bake this delicacy.” Wilma McCollum brought Gladys Rives to the birthday party the home held - it was called University

Manor at that time. Reverend Garrett Melvin the Greenfield Presbyterian Minister, Doc and Marie Griffin wheeled her mother, Bessie and Billy Meng, Hope Chism - Wanda McCollum’s mother, the Wests’ and children from Hettick, Aunt Helen Shane and John Jennings from Colonna, Uncle Robert and Aunt Dorothy Jennings from Wilmington. Senator Vince DeMusio’s (d) father sat at Mother’s table, served her food, put sugar in her tea (Mother did not see well). There were no other gentlemen living there. Dale bought him a new pair of leather gloves and hat. The gentleman wanted to pay this was a gift of love. I played the piano and a professor from Blackburn College played the flute for all to sing. Dale said Grace - Mother blew out the candles and everyone enjoyed sandwiches, iced tea, cake and ice cream. The Christmas parties were elegant. Churches and clubs pitched in with oranges and candy for the guests and residents. Dale bought Mother red velvet booties and a red nightgown from Betty Of Rockwell’s. Father Shipley’s mother-inlaw spent time in Mother’s room. They were acquaintances from the time Dad worked on Father’s church. Schirz dug and poured the basement of the new parsonage of the Greenfield Baptist Church on West Walnut between Lois Vinyard and Amelia Burger. Lois sold the ground that she and her husband bought from the estate of Mr. and Mrs. Francis Pather. Mr. and Mrs. Jim Fields and Dani spent Tuesday afternoon with Debbi and Beth Fields. We received word of the death of another Colorado friend - Dick Robinson’s boss, 80-year-old John Griffin. My nephew Richard Robinson stayed with his mother Melba to enable Vickie (his sister) to attend the wake. While Clifton and Shirley Hammon spend two-week vacation in their Phoenix Arizona home, my grandson and wife Jeremy and Brooke Crumley and children made arrangements to take me to Carlinville to board Amtrak with the three A’s - Ayden, Addisson and Averiee Cole and ride to their Joliet home. What a wonderful gift - but I cant. Perhaps they can come here. A cloudy, rainy day, but my sun popped out! I answered the telephone to three voices. “Hello greatgrandma. And what are you doing today? We love you (many times). We’re at grandma and grandpa’s.” There was much laughter and kissthrowing. They had run the vacuum and dusted. Jim Story promised to mail me an account of his three grandkid’s performance at school. Jim and his wife, Linda were going to attend this event at Normal were their school is located. At an early age my son, Clifton learned to tie his shoes properly. We bought Buster Brown from Russell Wiles in Carrollton who laughed when Clifton showed him a new way; a hard knot with the strings tucked in to form a bow. ‘Til next time!

Walkerville Baptist Church news It was a beautiful day. The sun was shining, but the wind nearly froze you as the temperature was 50 and from the north. It was cold. The message was from Psalm 22. Very good. You missed a blessing by not being there. There will be special services Easter Sunday morning. Treats of donuts and drinks for all at 9 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. Everyone welcome. Easter is April 20. The grass is greening up and so are the Dandelions. One or two are beautiful, but not a yard full when you have already sprayed for them. That goes with spring. There are so many that are not well. Remember these in your prayers: Anne Ford, Melanie Mast, Betty Newman, the Stevens family, Ray and Patty Baldes, the Garner family, Robert Lawson, Ed Crabtree, Susie Kiefer. All that were not at church Sunday, we missed you all so much. The winner of the Beef Raffle was Doreen Wear, not Delores Wear, sorry about that. Interesting note - Harrison L. Field died March 21, 1914, just 100 years ago. He was buried at Walkerville Cemetery, his obituary is posted on the board at Walkerville Church, if you should want one come and there will be one for you. It is real interesting. If you looked up the question last week you will know it was Balaam’s Mule, Numbers 22. Think about this one for coming week. The seven wonders of the world - are what? Think hard on this one. Maybe you can get one. The answers are and are not in the Bible. You will understand when you find out what they are. How sad it is when we forget that God is the one that helps us all week and we don’t think we owe him one hour even. What will judgment day be? It might be sooner than you think. In truth, the only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits. Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure. Remember God has the key to success and its up to you to open it. Remember, God has the lock also. What would you do if Jesus came today? What excuse would you have for not being in church or where is your Bible? Are other papers where it should be? What are you teaching your children? Will Jesus say, “Well done my faithful servant”? Remember Jesus loves you and so do we. See you in church Sunday.

Eldred Baptist Church news Don Carpenter – Interim Pastor As reported by Mary Eustace Our church services this beautiful Sunday morning of April 6, 2014 was opened with the reading of Psalm 118:19-29. Our opening song was “He Lives”. Our Pastor Don introduced a sermon based on the last seven days of Christ’s life know as Passion Week. Today is Part 1 of the three messages. He talked about the significance of Palm Sunday or the Triumphal entry of Christ into Jerusalem. The significance of Maundy Thursday (The Last Supper) and the significance of Good Friday. What do they mean? Pastor Don repeated three points for us to remember these next couple of weeks and the sermons about Passion Week. No. 1 – GOD is in control No. 2 – Jesus was willing and No. 3 – the people responded. God orchestrates all things in His sovereignty for good. Read Romans 8:37-39 Is God in control of our lives? 500 years before the day would come, GOD foretold of His Son coming into Jerusalem, mounted on a donkey coming in peace, bringing salvation for all of us. How...because GOD is in control! Jesus is willing to face what was coming. Jesus knew what was happening and what was to come. But, Jesus was willing to fulfill the definite plan. Why would Jesus be willing to do this knowing all this in advance? John 17: 1-3 – to glorify GOD in the saving of His people . Why would Jesus get on that donkey? John 3: 16. The people responded.....The peoples response was that of someone under compulsion...as the mighty hand of GOD began to move and fulfill all that He had purposed/designed/ planned...His creation could not contain itself. If the people had not cried out with praise...even the inanimate objects of creation would cry out... The same is true today, GOD is in control., Jesus is willing., Everyone responds... either by rejection or acceptance. Can’t wait to hear Part 2! Our Preacher is very passionate about our LORD. Our church serves a Children’s Ministry supper and a lesson on Jesus each Wednesday evening at 6 pm for all local children. Our church has a dedicated Bible Study Group that meets every Thursday morning at 10 am. A new class will be starting and if you are interested, please call Thea Adcock at (217) 983-2724 .Our Sunday services include Sunday School at 9 am for adults and children’s classes and regular services at 10 am. Our services are always open, please come and join us. If you need spiritual service or counsel, please don’t hesitate to contact our church. You may reach Pastor Don at (618) 7510007. You may also reach Pastor Don at doncarp@hotmail.com. Our church is so very blessed to have Don Carpenter and his family to be a very special part of Eldred Baptist Church.

Carrollton Farmer’s Market coming in May By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press Spring has sprung and as people begin planning their summer gardens it means just one thing - the Carrollton Chamber of Commerce’s Farmer’s Market is just around the corner. Farmer’s Market Manager Carolyn McCarry said the fourth annual Carrollton Chamber of Commerce’s Farmers Market will begin on Monday, May 5 in the parking lot between the Methodist Church and Jiffi Stop on Rt. 67 and run through October. There has been a small change this year - the event will be held from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. this year instead of 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. as in years past. Set-up time for vendors will be between 2 and 3 p.m. “We’ve noticed a trend in that people tend to come right when the vendors begin to set up,” McCarry said. “And we’ve also noticed that not much takes place after 6 p.m. so we adjusted the hours accordingly. Most people tend to stop by on their way home from work, which is usually before 7 p.m.” Last year there was a wide array of items for sale, including locally grown vegetables, fruits, fresh eggs, fresh baked pies, local crafts and some flea market items. All vendors of produce and baked goods should have required licenses and certifications prior to setting up.

“The certification is for the people who do baked goods and also if they sell eggs and such,” McCarry said. “I always inform people that the Farmer’s Market is the only venue where a person can bake or make jams and jellies and sell them without having a state approved kitchen. But they do have to have their food safety certificate through the public health department.” No license or certification is needed for selling fresh vegetables and fruits or any other vendors of crafts or flea market items. “We have grown each year and are always looking for new vendors so we may continue to offer a wide variety of items to the public,” McCarry said. “Mark Mondays on your calendars and visit us and patronize our vendors.” If you are interested and would like more vendor information, contact McCarry at 217-242-1766.

Raffle tickets anyone?

June Ivers gets ready to cut a bunch of raffle tickets to sell during the Stanley Ray Brannan benefit held Saturday in Eldred at the American Legion.

By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press Carrollton Pool Board resumed monthly meetings on the first Wednesday of April, announcing plans are underway for building a new addition to the pool for 2015, if funding can be secured. “We are looking at possibly obtaining a federal grant to help us build the addition,” Pool Board member Ryan Scott said. “There is one, in particular, we are looking at through the Parks and Recreation of Illinois that will financially assist additions to recreational facilities like the pool.” Opening day has been set for May 24 with new pool hours running from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. daily. Pool parties can be scheduled to be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., 7-9 p.m. or 9-11 p.m. Several new ideas were approved by the board, including various themes on different days along with name days. “A different name will be posted

every day at the pool and if it is a person’s name they will receive a free popsicle from the concession stand,” Scott said. “We are also going to be running a special through the month of April where one can receive 10 percent off any yearly pool pass, which includes individual, family, and senior citizens.” Several improvements were made last year to the pool and will continue this year. Scott said new picnic tables have been ordered for the concession area and they are looking at revamping the bathrooms. The pool will once again be offering water aerobics on Monday and Wednesday nights. “Last year we had quite a few people participate and we feel like it was a big hit,” Scott said. “So, we decided we would continue them again this year.” The goal this year is to make the pool more inviting and this will be done by running a different ad every week in a local paper which will feature a cut out coupon for swimmers to save throughout the summer.

OBITUARIES Nancy C. Smith

So give yourselves completely to God. Stand against the devil, and the devil will run from you. Come near to God, and God will come near to you. You sinners, clean sin out of your lives. You who are trying to follow God and the world at the same time, make your thinking pure. James 4:7-8

It is a commonplace in conversion narratives for people to say that they wanted to hold back something in their life from God, some small area of their life that they refused to give up to God. Many have said that they refused to completely give their lives to God for fear that they would be missing out on some worldly pleasure. People contemplating religious vows know that they will be giving up having a family, acquiring wealth, and perhaps also their independence. But this holding on to our old lifestyle, including all the trappings of both material and social wealth only prolongs the bondage. Ironically, we are only truly free when we completely give our lives over to God, holding nothing back. Give your life completely to God and you will find complete joy. If you are holding back something from God, some area of your life that you refuse to let go of, then you are still in shackles and really are missing out on the complete experience of living for God. –Christopher Simon

Stumpe family selects Jersey County 4-H Foundation to receive $2,500 grant

Soybean acreage expected to rise, corn drop By ROBERT LYONS Greene Prairie Press Prices and weather may be the determining factor when it comes to the number of acres dedicated to corn versus soybeans this year. The USDA estimates nationwide the number of acres dedicated to soybeans will rise by 6 percent, to more than 81 million acres, while corn acreage is projected to fall by 4 percent. However, in the states referred to as the Corn Belt – Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and parts of Michigan, Ohio, Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri and the Dakotas – the increase in soybeans is estimated to be even higher at nearly 8 percent, while the decreased corn area is expected to be less significant at just more than 3 percent. In the west central portion of Illinois, the USDA's prediction is

expected to hold true for the most part, according to Tri County FS manager Dave Lewis. "I think we're going to see more soybeans this year, there's no question," Lewis said. "But, we've also got very good corn production around our area. We've got a lot of farmers that, as long as conditions allow, they're going to plant a lot of corn." Lewis said ground considered marginal, whether steep or highly erodible, is always more likely to have soybeans planted on it because corn requires a higher quality habitat. But, profitability will play a key role in determining how many more acres are planted with beans. "Commodity prices being off from where they've been the last few years has all farmers going over the expense side of their operation, making sure that where they're spending money gets them the best return," Lewis said.

Tri-County Antique Club planning for year’s events The Tri-County Antique Club, located near Dow, is making plans for its events for this year. The first event will be the annual Swap Meet and Flea Market held on May 3 and May 4. This is the event where members and non-members bring items to swap or sell. Vendors also bring their wares to sell and a food stand is available. There is no charge for visitors to get onto the grounds to attend this event. Also this spring and fall, the club will hold its Ag Enrichment Sessions where school children have field trips to show them how Grandma and Grandpa did it in the olden days. The events feature butter making, hand corn shelling, the Old Peddler with his wares, rope making, lye soap cooking in the iron kettle, kids games such as rolling the hoop, bag races, clothespin game, wagon ride and much more. Contact Cindy Gelsthorpe at 618-4668955 for more information on the field trips. The group has its annual tractor ride where members and non-members participate on Saturday, June 21. For more information on the tractor ride, contact Bill Clendenny at 535-3326 or George Koenig at 535-1191. The big event of the year is the annual Olden Days Festival that will be held Aug. 23-24. New this year will be a petting zoo where kids can feed the animals and will be sponsored by

the Jerseyville FFA club. Also new to this event is horse plowing along with the usual wheat threshing, bailing, sawmilling, blacksmithing, tractor and garden pulls, live entertainment each day and Old Country Church on Sunday along with the car show. Also featured will be AgriLand for the kids with all kinds of free games, peddle tractor pull, face painting and the free barrel and covered wagon rides. There will be many vendors featuring arts, crafts and much more. The club food stand will be open featuring homemade pies along with other food vendors and a raffle drawing.

Farmers often consider the soybean-corn price ratio, which is determined by dividing the price of corn into that of beans. When the ratio rises above two-and-a-half, more farmers begin opting to plant soybeans; when it's below, there is generally more corn, according to Lewis. On Monday afternoon, the ratio was 2.39. "Based on today's prices, corn is still looking pretty good," Lewis said on Monday. The weather is also a determining factor in the planting selection. Lewis said the earlier farmers can get in the fields, the more likely they are to plant corn. "If we get an open planting window in April, I think our corn numbers will come in pretty good," he said. "Naturally, the later it gets you lose corn acres to beans." For up-to-date information on the crop futures prices, visit tricountyfs.com.

Quarter Auction benefits Rally Around Carrollton April 11 By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press If you're looking for a night of fun and perhaps a few last minute items to add to your spring décor or even Easter basket, then you won't want to miss the Quarter Auction scheduled for this Friday evening at the Eldred American Legion beginning at 7 p.m. Proceeds from this benefit will go toward the Rally Around Carrollton, which sponsors the Full Moon Over Carrollton on Oct. 18 and is destined to become a part of the fall experience in Carrollton. Amy Jilg, a member of Rally Around Carrollton, said if you typically avoid quarter auctions because you don’t find them exciting, then you might want to give this one a try. “Anyone who hasn’t been to a quarter auction needs to come to ours because ours is a lot different than the ones a lot of people go to,” Jilg said. “I’ve had people tell me, ‘I don’t like them- they are long and they are boring and I never win.’ We try to do a lot of door prizes, too, in between so people who aren’t winning the auction item they want might win a door prize. “ Because they handle all aspects of the auction themselves, all of the money raised goes right to the Rally Around Carrollton “There are people who go around and put on these auctions but we just made up all of our own stuff so we could do it all ourselves,” Jilg said. “Ours moves along very fast because Bernie (Faul) is our MC and she’s a lot of fun up there.” Everything you see that night will be auctioned off. “A lot of them have vendors who come in and sell their products, but we don’t do that,” Jilg said. “We get the donated items and put it all on our auction.” In case you have never been to a quarter auction before – and

believe it or not, there are people who haven’t – this is how it works. When you enter you buy a paddle with a number on it. RAC paddies are $2 apiece or $3 for five. One can buy as many as they want for more chances to win an item they are interested in. When the item comes up, if one wants to bid, they put a quarter in the pot for each paddle and if their number is called then they win that item. Or, if you are one who doesn’t like to fool with quarters and want to have a chance at every single item, you can purchase an All In Paddle for $25 and be entered in each auction. “Another thing we do differently which makes our auctions go faster is that we work on the honor system,” Jilg said. “Some of them they have to go around to each table and collect the quarters – but we just have a container on each table and if you want to bid on an item, we trust you to be honest and put in your quarter. When people

know it is for a good cause, people are pretty honest.” Children are welcome to attend with their parents so it will also be a family event. A taco and nacho bar with all the fixings will be available when those hunger pangs strike. Jilg said Rally Around Carrollton has had several fundraisers so far in preparation for October’s Full Moon Over Carrollton. “It takes around $2,000 to $3,000 to put on the event,” she said. “But we also make donations to several area charities. At Christmas we made a donation to Illinois Valley to help needy families and we are going to do the same thing at Easter. We’ve also donated to After Prom and if we raise enough we would like to be able to help out organizations if they need something.” The auction begins at 7 p.m. and runs until everything is gone. There is no admission fee.

JCH Wellness Center hosts bike race Sunday, April 13 By BoB crossen Greene Prairie Press Parents and their children are gearing up for the JCH Wellness Center’s fourth annual Bike-AThon April 13 from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Jen Rogers, fitness coordinator, said the event started four years ago to provide a fitness outlet for children 12 and under, and grew to incorporate the rest of their family, as well. She said she wanted to hold an event like this because of bike-a-thons in her childhood. “It was something I always thought was fun and looked for-

ward to,” Rogers said. The event will be held at the JCH Wellness Center with a pool party from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. to reward all riders for their efforts along with their families. The Bike-A-Thon registration is open until 12 p.m. the day of the race. Those who registered before April 9 were guaranteed a T-shirt at the event. Additional shirts will be available on the day of the race, but will be given out on a first-come-first-serve basis. Bikers in the event will ride around a two-mile loop in the West Point subdivision across the street from the Wellness Center. Parents are encouraged to walk

or run alongside their children as they complete laps of the course. “Really and truly, it’s supposed to be a day of family fitness, just to get the whole family out and get everyone involved,” Rogers said. Riders will enter the track every two to three minutes with the oldest riders starting first until all bikers have begun the race. The track will be monitored and those riding may continue around multiple times if they desire. Registration forms are available at the JCH Wellness Center or online at jch.org/wellness-center. The entry fee is $15.

Fun ways to be a fit family Obesity is a global epidemic affecting people of all ages. According to The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than one-third of Americans are considered obese, while Statistics Canada notes about 25 percent of Canadians are obese. Being overweight or obese has been linked to cardiovascular disease, diabetes and some forms of cancer, and children who are overweight are likely to be overweight or obese adults. While eating a diet that is low in fat and high in whole-grain fiber, vegetables and lean proteins is important, exercise remains one of the key factors in maintaining a healthy weight. However, many adults and children simply do not get enough exercise during the day. An active lifestyle is often hampered by the prevalence of digital devices or sedentary jobs that encourage more screen time than fitness time. But there are ways for the entire family to get fit. Exercising together is not just a great way for families

to get healthy, but also a great opportunity to spend time together. The following are a handful of ways families can work together to incorporate more exercise into their daily lives. n Tackle chores. Yes, tasks around the house can count as exercise. Working together not only gets you moving but also cuts down on the time it takes to tackle tasks around the house. Mowing the lawn, vacuuming the rugs, sweeping the floor -- all of these activities can get the heart pumping. Make it fun by setting chores to music or competing against one another to see who gets their task done first or the best. n Create an outdoor obstacle course. Set up a series of obstacles in your yard and host your own triathlon. You can jump through tires, climb through tubes and scale trees. Make it fun by having adults try to ride tricycles or pair up an adult with a child for sack races. The opportunities for fun are only hampered by your imagination.

n Go for family bicycle rides. Traverse your neighborhood or blaze new trails by riding bikes together. Young children can be strapped into trailers that are pulled behind the bike or ride in seats attached to the bike itself. This gives everyone a chance to enjoy the great outdoors and hone their cycling skills. n Go hiking. Hiking is another fun family activity that also happens to make for great exercise. Choose a trail that may not be level and push everyone's endurance to the test. n Stroll the beach.Walking or running on sand offers more resistance than walking on pavement. Take a stroll at the seaside. Break up the walk by collecting shells or stopping by the water to observe marine wildlife. n Hit the dance floor. If you've been invited to a wedding or a Sweet 16 party, cut a rug and take advantage of the DJ and dance floor. When enjoying yourselves, you probably won't even realize how much you're exercising.

Diabetes Education for Everyday Living

The aging process has a way of making people risk-averse. Financial advisors typically recommend that men and women steer clear of risky investments as they age, and men and women over 50 often make lifestyle choices to reduce their risk of developing certain medical conditions. As women age, some may feel exercise is simply too risky. Hormonal changes brought on by aging decrease a woman's bone density, and that fact makes many women over 50 hesitant to embrace exercise. But exercise plays a key role in helping women over 50 secure their longterm health and reduce their risk of injury. n Exercise can improve sleep. Some women who are fighting fatigue may feel that routine exercise will only make them more tired. But exercise actually improves energy levels and makes it easier to get a better night's rest. Numerous studies have shown that routine exercise can improve sleep quality and even increase energy levels throughout the day, something that should raise an eyebrow among women who do not exercise but routinely find themselves fighting fatigue. A more quality night's rest improves vitality, making it easier for women to exercise and make it through the day without feeling fatigued. n Exercise benefits those with limited mobility. Women over 50 with limited mobility may feel that exercise serves no purpose because of their disability or physical condition. But even women confined to wheelchairs or those forced to walk with a cane or walker can benefit from cardiovascular exercise and even light strength training. Such exercises can improve a woman's range of motion while reducing her risk of heart disease.

TRI-COUNTY REAL ESTATE TOUR Home improvement projects you might want to skip

Upon buying a home, new homeowners understandably want to start making adjustments so the home is a more accurate reflection of who they are. Many of these adjustments are minor, but even minor changes here and there can give a home a whole new feel. While there are many ways a person can turn a home into their own unique oasis, some home improvement projects may not be worth the effort, especially when homeowners decide to sell. Some projects may prove a little too personal, making them less attractive to prospective buyers down the road. Though it's within every homeowner's right to make adjustments to their homes (as long as those adjustments are in adherence to local laws), the following projects might come back to haunt homeowners down the road. n Sports Complex Sports fans often dream of erecting a backyard basketball court or adding a tennis court to their property. But such projects are among the more expensive additions a homeowner can make to his or her

property, costing more than popular projects like kitchen remodels or room additions. What's more, real estate professionals note that homeowners can expect to recoup little, if any, of the cost of adding a basketball or tennis court to their properties at resale, while more popular projects tend to recoup a substantial amount of a homeowner's initial investment. n Fully Furnished Home Office More and more men and women are working from home, and some homeowners might feel that transforming a room in their home into a fully functional home office is a great investment. But some buyers might be turned off by a room that can no longer function as an extra bedroom. The cost of converting a home office into a more traditional bedroom may compel prospective buyers to keep looking or make a lower offer on your home. Homeowners should keep in mind the reactions of potential buyers before adding too many personal accents and additions to their homes if they plan to sell down the line.

County Spartans begin title defense Greene scores, results The North Greene High School baseball team brushed off some early mistakes to begin defense of its 2013 Western Illinois Valley Conference South championship with a 6-5 win against Greenfield-Northwestern Tuesday in White Hall. A collection of Spartans errors played a part in Greenfield-NW taking a 3-0 lead in the top of the first inning and a 5-3 advantage in the second. "We just weren't ready to play," North Greene head coach Jim Roesch said. "We've played well defensively this season, but we had seven errors [Tuesday]. They were routine plays. We just didn't play very well, but we picked it up late." The Spartans (4-3, 1-0 WIVC South) took a 6-5 lead in the bottom of the third inning before

the teams kept each other scoreless in the final four frames. Wesley Teno's second run scored stood up as the game-winner. Kolten Heberling and Michael Williams each drove in two North Greene runs and Reed Rusten finished with a multi-hit game, going 2-for-3. Rusten improved to 2-0 this season from the pitcher's mound. He threw a complete game against the Tigers, surrendering just two hits with 14 strikeouts and two walks. All five Greenfield-NW runs were unearned. Austin Plogger scored two of the Tigers' runs and stole three bases. Austin Bishop and Levi Stuart collected Greenfield-NW's lone hits. The teams complete their twogame series at 4:30 p.m. Thursday at Northwestern High School.
