THE BROWN COUNTY

Shutdown could affect WIC, jobs BY Wayne Gates The Brown County Press The failure of Congress and the President to come to an agreement over the federal budget is generating far more questions than answers. Many federal workers were furloughed October 1, which is the beginning of the fiscal year for the federal government. Because these workers aren’t on the job, this has lead to a suspension of many government activities and services, which is popularly known as a “shutdown.” The impact be to local residents is still unclear. The general consensus is that the longer the shutdown goes, the more significant the impact will be.

Alvin Norris, Director of Adams Brown Community Action, said “Everyone we’re in contact with (to answer questions) says ‘We don’t know’”. Norris said that services such as the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children, known as WIC, could be affected by a long term shutdown of government. The United States Department of Agriculture halted funding to the program on October 1. “The state has enough WIC funds on hand to continue the program for several more weeks”, Norris said. Regarding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as food stamps, the

USDA has published information that there are no disruptions expected for the month of October. Norris said another area in Brown County that might be impacted will be the Workforce Connection program. “Many of those staff members are paid through a variety of federal funds”, Norris said. “If this thing drags on more than a couple of weeks, we will not be able to pay them.” Norris said that others may feel the impact of the shutdown if they have applied for any sort of federal assistance, from social security to home loans. “Those applications are not being processed because the people that do

the work are not there”, Norris said. He added that programs such as reimbursements for home energy improvements are on hold as well. Norris also wanted Brown County residents to know that it is still business as usual at ABCAP. “We’re still here and we’re still honoring appointments”, Norris said. “Call us if you need us and we’ll do our best to help you.” For specific information about how the government shutdown may affect you, go to the website of the federal agency in question. Use caution regarding blogs and other websites that may have incomplete or possibly false information.

Brown County Airport plans Open House on October 13 BY Martha B. Jacob The Brown County Press Residents of Brown County have a lot to be proud of at the Brown County Airport located in Georgetown. On Sunday, October 13 the Brown County Airport is planning a special Open House event from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. to celebrate the renovations that have recently been completed at the air-

port. According to Robert Bohl, secretary of the Brown County Pilots’ Association, a project began at the airport over four years ago to build a new office and hangar, tear down and remove old buildings and blacktop areas of the airport. “This airport is owned by the county, but members of the Brown County Pilot’s Association maintain it,” Bohl explained. “We pay the

electricity and the water. We generate funds from the buying and selling fuel here at the airport.” Bohl continued, “The airport first opened in 1971 when then Governor James Rhodes ordered that every county have an airport to encourage business and commerce in the area. We had the same old building for all these years since 1971 until four or five years ago when CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

2013 Brown County Fair sets attendance record BY Martha B. Jacob The Brown County Press Record crowd...great weather...fun for all. That’s how Juanita Barricklow, secretary/treasurer of the Brown County Senior Fair Board described the 2013 Brown County Fair. “This year was the 162nd county fair held here in Brown County,” Barricklow said with a smile. “And this year’s fair is one of the best ever, and it couldn’t have gone better. We had two of the largest pumpkins ever entered this year with the biggest one weighing in at almost 1,000 pounds. “The parade had over

125 entries, which marks one of the most entrees ever. The parade was great and everyone enjoyed it especially the children. It was a good kick-off for the fair.” Barricklow said that the Tuesday event with OSU Extension Agent Becky Cropper, ‘College Access’ activities was a big hit. She shared advice and information on college access programming, campus visits, financial aid nights and other related activities. “Many people may not know this,” Barricklow said, “but on the Sunday before the fair opened, we dedicated two buildings on the fairgrounds. A mer-

chants building was dedicated to Orville Whalen and the other was named and dedicated as the Neal FFA and 4H building.” She said once again this year the feeder-calf sale was well attended with over 100 entries. The Tuesday night show with Chris Higbee and Daryl Worley brought out thousands of visitors. “This year’s cake auction was so much fun and generated over $5,000 which goes to help fund the Floral Hall,” Barricklow said. “That cake, pie and cookie sale has grown to ba a significant fundraiser and is very popular.” CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

BY Wayne Gates The Brown County Press Another round of demolitions for blighted buildings was recently approved by the Brown County Board of Commissioners. Bonar Construction and Excavation of Georgetown will be paid $56,991 to tear down 11 more structures. The county received $328,464 from the Ohio Attorney General’s office as part of the Moving Ohio Forward grant program to

clean up abandoned structures in the state. After paying for the first round of demolitions, the county had $145,724 left for a second round of demolitions. The remaining $90,000 paid for administrative fees, site testing for hazardous materials and other costs for both rounds of demolitions. A total of 38 blighted structures will have been removed by both projects. The properties set for demolition are as follows.

The Adams family of Lyons Road in Georgetown lost their house to a fire on October 1st.

Georgetown family loses home to large house fire BY Wayne Gates The Brown County Press Eugene Adams was watching television last Tuesday when one of his sons ran into the room. A camper parked next to the house was on fire. “I tried to put it out with the garden hose, but that didn’t work, so I got my wife and my dogs out of

the house.”, Adams said. He got his wife Brenda and another son to safety along with two dogs...and had to watch as his house continued to burn. “It’s not really even sunk in yet. You work all your life and then it’s just up in flames.”, he said. The family is now staying with relatives as they try to rebuild their lives.

The two boys, Dylan and Tyler, are students at Georgetown High School. Superintendent Chris Burrows said that there was an effort underway to donate clothing to the family. Donations can be dropped off at either the elementary school or with Mrs. Fitzpatrick at the JunCONTINUED ON PAGE 10

WHAT ABOUT YOU?

MICAH addresses God’s people on behalf of God as all faithful prophets would do. In so doing he considers their refusal to acknowledge their sins. Nothing changes does it? We find the same today. In Chapter 6 he states the Lord’s case against Israel. He anticipates (or quotes their questions) in verses 6:6-7. These are increasingly sarcastic questions to God. They refuse to say they are sinful. “Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression…?” Verse 7a. Micah then answers their objections in what is one of the clearest answers to any question in Scripture. This is found in Verse 6:8, “He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” The Israelites asked if more offerings and sacrifices are needed, even to the offering of their firstborn. Micah says, no. No offerings of cattle or sins. But offering yourself wholly and sacrificially to God is what is REQUIRED. We don’t like that word in America today. No one has a right to require anything of me is heard today! Three simple things from Micah: One is ‘’to act justly”. The man of God will sacrifice for those who are being wronged. What is right in God’s will is the very thing a man of God will do. Social injustice was evident in Micah’s day. (3:1,8) Maybe that is why Micah brings this first in his list. Today is that what we do? For example: As the unborn children’s lives are being sacrificed to the god of convenience in our day, are we sacrificing ourselves to stop this injustice (murder). God expects this

of the man of God. It is required of us. Second, Micah says the man of God is ‘’to love mercy”. Mercy literally means to ‘to have pity, to have compassion’. The man of God who has all his doctrines in order but does not love mercy is in error. This is continual action. It is a way of life to love mercy. Jesus being our perfect example, of course. He lived a life of pity, mercy for the suffering masses. Jesus had such pity and mercy that he gave his life for all mankind who are lost in sins. He pitied our situation and acted upon it! A sacrificing of love in mercy is required of a man of God. Third, Micah states: “to walk humbly with your God”. One cannot do the first two consistently without having this third quality in his life. To walk humbly is not so much self-abasement but more a ‘submission to God as you walk down life’s road’. Our every step is to be determined by God’s will and way. Constantly seeking his will through his Word is a required to readjust or confirm our journey here. What is Micah saying? He is saying to the Israelites and us that sacrificing anything without this INNER CHANGE is worthless. God always has worked from the inside out. If we are dead on the inside to the ways of God then the outside actions mean little. Remember Jesus said the Pharisees were ‘white-washed tombs’. May we not be! Let us help you in YOUR life’s journey to Heaven! “All the churches of Christ send greetings.” Romans 16:16 Gary J Mattingly Fayetteville Church of Christ 513-875-3636

Letters to the Editor

Reader says water plant benefits landlords Dear Editor: In response to Jay Castle’s lengthy “campaign” letter to the editor that appeared in the Brown County Press, we would like to remind the public and the council that the residents and voters of Aberdeen agree with Judge Gusweiler’s comment that “the best arbiter of any issue is an election”. That election was held nearly three years ago on November 2, 2010 and the voters, by a significant majority, voted NOT to build a water plant. However, Mr. Castle and Mr. Applegate chose to ignore the voters and have worked diligently to over-

turn their decision. Aberdeen voters decided by legal ballot to contract with an established regional water supplier to provide water to the village and maintain the water system within the village (i.e., lines, tanks, meters and hydrants). If Mr. Castle and Mr. Applegate had not turned their backs on the voters and committed the village to a course of action that would financially cripple it and astronomically raise our utility rates, there would be no lawsuits. Mr. Castle claims that these lawsuits will significantly raise our property taxes. That would require a

water supplier provides water to the village, the ultimate tapholder will be the property owner or landlord. This is why some members of the council have tried so hard to override the will of the voters. In conclusion, we would like to point out that our understanding of the role of a council member is to represent the interests of all the people of the village as well as the village itself. We have the police and firefighters to protect us. Remember these facts when you vote on November 5th. Sincerely, Gene and Patricia Riley

Hospital gift shop needs volunteers Dear Editor: The Southwest Regional Medical Center Auxiliary has been operating a small gift shop at the hospital for many years. It has been a great convenience for the patients to be able to purchase newspapers, toiletries, candy items and other merchandise for use while they are in the hospital. In addition, small vases of flowers are offered as well as cards, balloons and small gifts for visitors to take to the patients that are in the hospital. The ability to take a small gift to a patient or flowers to one that is in the hospital brings cheer which aids in recuperation. Sadly, several of the volunteers that have worked in

the Mary Crawford gift shop have had to retire due to illness or advanced age and, unfortunately, some of our faithful and dedicated volunteers have passed away, and we have not been able to fill to the empty time slots. Some of our workers have been filling two shifts a week in order to keep the shop open for the patients and visitors. This is indeed a difficult situation. This is why I am asking the public for help hoping that someone would be willing to give a small amount of their time helping others. I know people are busy and many have jobs and feel that they don't have time to spend in a hospital gift shop. But I

proposed levy being added to a future ballot and voted on by the village. As a council member and paralegal you would think he would know that. This is a scare tactic, plain and simple. The only reason Mr. Castle, Mr. Applegate, and now Mr. Shotwell, have fought the will of the people on the water issue is self interest on the part of some local rental property landlords who refuse to take responsibility for paying the water bill. It will impact their bottom line, so they are more than happy to have the village and the rest of the residents bear the costs. If a rural

If you should decide to share some of your time with the gift shop, you will not be asked to work more than two to four hours per shift and you can work morning or afternoon, once a month or once a week.

Ohio WIC has sufficient funds to operate through the end of October. The federal shutdown has not diminished any WIC services in Ohio thus far. Every states’ situation is different and how long they can weather the shutdown is dependent upon their funding status.

Ohio’s cost containment measures have put us in a good position for continuing services while the federal budget is being debated. If you have any questions regarding WIC, please call the Adams County WIC Program @ 937-544-3796 or the Brown County WIC Program @ 937-378-6030. Thank you.

Representative Brad Wenstrup released the following statement upon the Senate’s failure to pass legislation to continue funding the government: “The fact that we have reached this point is a failure of leadership. I am disappointed by President Obama and Harry Reid’s refusal to negotiate in good faith to keep the government open. I will be working to get the government open. I’ve been a doctor and a soldier much longer than a congressman; Each of these positions require working until the job is done. “I know my constituents want Obamacare repealed and I know they want a government that works. They deserve health care reform that is affordable and provides actual access to care. We have worked to negotiate a compromise that ensures fairness for all: A one year delay of the individual mandate, just like what President Obama already granted businesses, and ending a special subsidy for health insurance for Congress and political appointees. It’s only fair. “The House has voted three separate times to keep the government open, working through the weekend to find a solution for Ohioans. Only in the dysfunction of D.C. would the Senate refuse to meet until ten hours before a looming deadline. Sadly, they went home for the weekend, refusing to do their work on behalf of the American people.”

WB graduate accepted into Columbus Symphony Chorus Thomas Capps. a 2008 Western Brown High School graduate, was recently accepted as the newest member of the Columbus Symphony Chorus. “I started singing as early as I can remember,” Capps said. “My earliest memories of music are mostly of my Godmother Linda Roach my mother (Alice) and I, either singing in the car or around the house.” Capps attributes his success in music and singing to the early encouragement from his mother and godmother who introduced him to all venues of music. Capps entered his first competition at a the age of seven, singing ‘Castle on a Cloud.’ He later studied and learned to play several instruments and was active in school competitions and the choir at Western Brown High School. “I enjoyed performing in the Western Brown Men’s Chorus and Honor Chorale for four years,” he added. He was accepted into the OMEA (Ohio Music Education Association) All-State Honor Chorus for three years in a row as well as the All-Ohio State Fair Youth Choir for three years. “When I went to Morehead State University,” he said, “I entered as a vocal performance major and performed with the Honor

Chorale for several years. “I decided to try out for the Columbus Chorus for a couple of reasons. First, I seemed to have this hole inside of me that could only be filled with music. But the biggest reason I chose to audition was for my family.” He continued, “I had been procrastinating for years, telling myself that I wasn’t good enough or I might not be able to get back into music at age 28.” But when Thomas learned early this year that his mother was diagnosed with a possibly fatal condition he decided that time was too precious to put off his dream of performing again. It was then that he applied for an audition. “To say I was nervous would be an understatement,” he said, “The

Columbus Symphony Chorus is limited to 130 members, so only a few spots open for each season.” Hundreds of people auditioned for just a few spots. Capps said the audition required him to pick a classical piece of music and perform it for a panel. He was also required to site read a piece of music, chosen by a judge, which he had never seen before. “I also had an ear-training test where I was asked to listen to and then repeat, Acappella, multiple sequences of major, sharp and flat notes,” he said, “the last part was a vocal range test where they wanted to hear my lowest and highest notes and everything in between.” After cuts were made, Capps was called back. Next he spent three weeks

Higher speed limits may be coming to a roadway near you For the second time this year, speed limits on some Ohio roadways are about to go up, this time on certain sections of U.S. Routes and State Routes. The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is increasing some speed limits on 607 miles of roadway as a result of new legislation passed by the Ohio General Assembly earlier this year, which became effective on Sunday, September 29. The legislation increases speeds on: • “Rural divided highways” to 60 miles per hour (194 miles of roadway) • “Rural expressways

without traffic control signals” to 65 miles per hour (15 miles of roadway) • “Rural freeways” to 70 miles per hour (398 miles of roadway) “Raising speed limits is not something the state takes lightly,” said ODOT Director Jerry Wray. “We put much time and consideration into identifying roadways where speed limits could increase while maintaining a safe commute for Ohio motorists.” The legislative changes require ODOT to produce 1100 new highway signs at a cost of $114,845. Most of the signs – 580 – will be com-

pletely new and placed along the roadway, while the rest – 520 – are simply overlays that will cover a portion of an existing speed limit sign. The costs include materials and labor for producing the new signs. Most of the signs are expected to be fully installed and visible to motorists by Friday, October 4. A link to regional maps highlighting changes to speed limits as required by the legislation is available here. The legislation also establishes uniformity in speed limits for both cars and truck so that each vehicle is permitted to go the same speed on any Ohio roadway. In order to comply with the legislation, speed limits on some roadways may stay the same for cars, but will increase for trucks. Seventy mile per hour speed limits are not new to Ohio. On July 1, speed limits on 570 miles of rural Ohio interstates increased from 65 to 70 miles per hour for both cars and trucks. Motorists were already legally permitted to drive 70 miles per hour on all 241 miles of the Ohio Turnpike. And according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, 34 other states in the nation have some posted speed limits of 70 miles per hour or higher including Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky and West Virginia.

So I got to tell everyone that I had made it. Only eight others made it.” The Columbus Symphony Chorus has been in existence for 53 years. The 130-member chorus is comprised entirely of volunteer singers from central Ohio and performs major works from Bach through the 21st century. In addition to its classical concerts the chorus’s annual Holiday “Pops” concerts have grown into one of the best-loved musical traditions in the central Ohio area, including three performances on the first weekend of December. Capps lives in Upper Arlington, north of Columbus and currently a full-time student in a transfer program with The Ohio State University and Columbus State College. He will

In the Book of Ruth, just after Judges, we find 3 women. First we find Naomi, who was married to a man of Bethlehem-Judah. His name was Elimelech. During a time of famine he decided to move his family, his wife and 2 sons, out of Judah into the country of Moab. It was to be a temporary move, however, as the case often is, time passed and their stay turned out to be longer than intended. During the interim Elimelech died and Naomi was left with her 2 grown sons. One was named Mahlon, which means sick, and the other was named Chilion, which means pining. Apparently, neither were very healthy, but in spite of the fact, they still married. The problem with that was they married gentile women from Moab instead of women from their own country. They remained in Moab for another 10 years and then both Mahlon and Chilion died. That left 3 widow women. Naomi heard that the economy back in her own land was once more prosperous, so she decided that it was time for her to return to her home in Judah. Therefore, she told each of her 2 daughters in law, Ruth and Orpah, to return to their mother’s house. They were young and they had no children. Now I believe that over the years Naomi had witnessed to these 2 young women and told them all about the LORD and all the miracles He had performed for His people. I believe that she probably told them that she could not worship the LORD like she wanted to in the land of Moab; that she needed to be back where she could go to Jerusalem at least once a year for the passover. That was a must for most Jews of faith and I believe Naomi loved the LORD. I believe that she never lost that love and that it would be natural for her to share her faith with her daughters in law, whom she also loved. I believe this was so because in verses 8-10 of chapter 1 she told them: “...Go, return each to her mother's house: the Lord deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me. The Lord grant you that ye may find rest, each of you in the house of her husband. Then she kissed them; and they lifted up their voice, and wept.” However, I also believe that

her witnessing did not rest the same with both girls. The good soil that grows faith was greater in Ruth than it was in Orpah, even though they both had equal opportunity. For the sake of space lets skip on down: “And they lifted up their voice, and wept again: and Orpah kissed her mother in law; but Ruth clave unto her.” Orpah turned back but Ruth said: “... for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God:...” Ruth became the great grandmother of King David. I wonder what Orpah could have aspired to if only she had had the faith that Ruth had. It was the lack of faith not opportunity. Ruth gained great notoriety but we never hear of Orpah again. We do not know what became of her. Ruth, on the other hand, left her family, left her country, and left her false gods behind and never looked back. She chose to change her religion and to accept the one true God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. She is one of the women of great faith in the Bible. In Matthew 15:21-28 we find another woman of great faith who came to Jesus with a request; her request was not denied because of her humility and her faith in Him. Most people tend to have a problem with faith and humility. It was her great faith and her ability to humble herself which held Jesus accountable to her request. God wants us to hold Him accountable and you better believe that He will hold us accountable also. In Psalm 34:8 God said: “O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.” In Malachi 3:10 He said: “...prove me now herewith...” but it greatly depends on how much faith you have. Sadly enough, that is a quality which is largely lacking in our society today.

The program will begin at 7:00 p.m. with food available at 6:00 p.m. If you plan to come early enough to eat you are asked to RSVP by calling 937-393-1958.

This is open to the public. Prussic Acid Poisoning and Frost As we move into the month of October, the risk for prussic acid poisoning increases with the risk of the first non-killing frost and eventually the first killing frost. The following information appeared in the Kentucky Forage News and is timely reading for anyone with livestock on pasture. Although prussic acid poisoning can occur anytime during the growing season, the greatest risk is

The primary cause of hydrocyanic (prussic) acid poisoning in domestic animals is the ingestion of plants containing this potent toxin. Cyanide-producing compounds (cyanogenic glucosides) occurring in living plant cells are converted to prussic acid when cells are crushed or otherwise ruptured. The prussic acid potential of plants is affected by species and variety, weather, soil fertility and stage of plant growth. Plants of the sorghum group and leaves of wild cherry trees have a potential for producing toxic levels of prussic acid. There are wide differences among varieties. Some of the sudangrasses are low in prussic acid. Pearl millet is apparently free of prussic acid in toxic amounts. The risk from potentially dangerous forages may be reduced by following certain management practices. 1. Graze sorghum or sorghum cross plants only when they are at least 15 inches tall.

According to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, employees working more than 40 hours a week must be paid time and a half. But agricultural employees have always been exempt.

My guess is that the entire week was a record crowd at the gate, but I have not heard that officially. In any case, the support from local businesses and volunteers made for a great week and a great sale to cap off the Jr. Fair. As in Adams and Highland Counties earlier this year, the support of the youth was outstanding at the sale. I can’t say thank you enough to those who support the sale every year.

Do not graze for two weeks after a non-killing frost. 5. Do not graze after a killing frost until plant material is dry (the toxin is usually dissipated within 48 hours). 6. Do not graze at night when frost is likely. 7. Delay feeding silage 6 to 8 weeks following ensiling. 8. Do not allow access to wild cherry leaves whether they are wilted or not. After storms always check pastures for fallen limbs. American Farmers Facing New Labor Costs This information recently appeared in the Morning Ag Clips that I receive every morning. This one is scary because it is not well known by many. Most think that they are exempt.

We saw family, old classmates, people that we both had worked with, and old friends. Bill Neal was the one who thought up the theme (Brown County Fair-A County Reunion) and he was right. Each day of the past week has become special for one reason or another. Sunday before the fair the new F.F.A. and 4-H building was dedicated to Harmon and Velva Neal. Becky Cropper started the dedication by sharing her interview with Harmon and Velva Neal. She first knew them when she became the 4-H agent here in Brown County. Telling us about Velva wearing a clown suit the week of the fair and entertaining children. Harmon spoke afterwards about his love for the kids in Brown County who have went through the 4-H and F.F.A. programs here in our county. He feels they will make the leaders of tomorrow. He was proud to have the building dedicated to him and his wife. We then went to the east side of the Fair Grounds and dedicated the Orville Whalen Merchant Building. Becky Cropper had nice words to say about Orville’s

time spent on the board as director and President. With his little evil smile and his loving family beside him Orville’s love for the Brown County Fair shined through the words that he said. Orville’s leadership has guided the Senior Fair Board in presenting to you the Little State Fair. I want to show my appreciation to the Brown County Horseman’s association for putting on the Western Horse Show in the back ring. We wish to congratulate our friend Denny Mulford for winning the Western Horse Championship. From a 12 year old kid brought up on the streets of Detroit Michigan to a 66 year old senior citizen, time has been going by pretty fast. The last four years as a Fair Board director has given me and Lottie a lot of enjoyment. Ohio is an agricultural state, our state seal has shocks of corn and wheat. The kids that raise a rabbit in their backyard, to kids helping their mom’s and dad’s work the family farm 4-H and F.F.A. has always been here to help. Our fair highlights these kids that have been shown the right way to grow up. Please help us get the word out that we need 4H and F.F.A. here in our home, Brown County. Will start writing again in January to keep you up on all the Brown County Fair news and want to thank all of you who said they read my stories. The 163rd Brown County Fair will start on September 22, 2014. Hope to see you there!

Diver Terry Schram speaks to Hamersville 2nd graders September's Community Resource Person, Terry Schram, spoke to second graders at Hamersville School. Schram gave a presentation about being a certified SCUBA diver. He is employed at Cave Run Lake in Kentucky. His job is maintaining the underneath side of the marina at Cave Run Lake. To become a SCUBA diver, Terry was trained by a fish and wildlife officer. Stu dents were surprised when Schram entered the classroom dressed completely in his diving suit with an oxygen tank, fins, goggles, tools, flashlight, and many other supplies needed for his job. He told students how important it is to check his equipment before diving. He said safety is top priority. One item he takes underwater is a knife to cut any fishing line that may entangle him. For a safety precaution, there is a man topside of the dock to watch for Schram's bubbles from the air tank and to hand tools to him. He talked about using a saw, wrenches, and other tools to repair the under side of the boat docks. He demonstrated how difficult it is to wear underwater gloves and screw a nut on a bolt. He said he has to brace himself on the dock to use the saw. Students were fascinated as Schram explained each piece of eq uipment that is necessary for his job. Second grade teachers and students would like to

plants. The most basic and effective way to brighten the teeth is to bleach them with a dental mouth tray and bleaching material. A tray is custom made for the patient, and he or she can bleach at home at his or her convenience. Bleaching usually whitens the teeth several shades on almost everyone. Lastly, the straightness of the teeth should be addressed. Orthodontics is a good option for some people. If a person doesn’t want to wear braces or appliances, we can still “straighten” the teeth by re-contouring with crowns, bonding, or veneers. Now that you are armed with information, go out into the public and really notice the smiles you see. Do you think most people could benefit from a “smile lift?” Have you noticed that virtually all of the people on the makeover TV shows have dental work done to improve their smile? If you feel like you could use a smile makeover, see your dentist. And put your best smile forward! If you are in need of a good dentist please call Mt. Orab Family Dentistry, Drs. Jerry and Michelle Heck located at 470 West Main Street, Mt. Orab at (937) 444-3311

They say you never get a second chance to make a good first impression. It has been statistically proven that the second thing a person notices about someone upon first meeting is his or her smile (the eyes are first). The American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry did a poll and found that almost all Americans (99.7%) believe that a smile is an important social asset. Most agreed also that an attractive smile makes a person more appealing to the opposite sex, and three-quarters of those polled felt that an unattractive smile can hurt a person’s chances for career success. The most important things about a person’s smile were “straightness, whiteness and color of teeth, sincerity of smile, missing teeth, and sparkle of the smile,” in that order. Discolored, yellow, and stained teeth ranked as the number one most unattractive feature. Today, there is no reason for a less-than-beautiful smile to hinder someone’s success in the work force or the social scene. The first priority would be to restore obvious decay in the front teeth (however, if the patient is going to bleach, this should be done first). With the wonderful esthetic composites available today, there is no reason for anyone to know a person has fillings in the front teeth. Secondly, any missing teeth in the front should be addressed with partials, bridges or im-

Rankin and his oldest son say very little about what their surroundings were like. Rankin was a minister, so your initial assumption might be that the home’s decor would have been very reserved”. Some of the woodwork details in the home, however, show that the Rankins were able to enjoy some of the consumer goods that were starting to become affordable to people in the middle class. The discovery of this wall stenciling suggests that they were also comfortable with using the vivid colors that would have been considered stylish at that time. The difficulty facing OHS is that there is so little surviving evidence of this stenciling. In one room, the parlor, they have a photograph from the 1940s that shows a small section of the original stenciling preserved under a piece of glass mounted to the wall. This sample, however, appears to have been destroyed when the wall was water damaged. All of the remaining original stenciled designs were scrubbed off the wall long ago. In another room, removal of some trim mold-

ings added in 1863 revealed remnants of wallpaper which dates to about 1855. In several places where this wallpaper is damaged, you can see original green stenciled designs over a dark pink background. OHS is in the process of hiring an artwork conservation firm to carefully remove the wallpaper so that the underlying stenciled decorations can be seen. The amount of stenciling that was preserved under the later molding, however, is very small, and will only tell them what one part of the wall looked like. What OHS is hoping to find is another home from the same period that has similar stenciling in a more intact condition. They could then reproduce those patterns at the Rankin house. Ideally, they would find a house with stencils that use the same patterns as they found at the Rankin house. Stenciling and decorative painting were often done by itinerant artists who relocated periodically as populations migrated to the west. The new houses and inns being built in these areas created a vigorous demand for their services. The houses in which

Researchers and architects at the Ohio Historical Society (OHS) are looking for help in re-creating the original stencil-painted walls at the Rankin house, which is currently undergoing an extensive restoration to return it to its 1830s appearance. The Rankin house, in Ripley, Ohio, was built in 1829 by the prominent abolitionist Reverend John Rankin and his wife Jean. With the assistance of their with their children and neighbors, they are thought to have assisted approximately 2000 runaway slaves in their flight to freedom on the Underground Railroad. New, and unexpected, evidence has recently come to light indicating that the walls of two of the home’s first floor rooms were originally stencil-painted in decorative patterns and bright colors. “This was a very welcome discovery”, says Chris Buchanan, Project Manager for OHS, “since we don’t have a lot of information to tell us how the home was originally finished and furnished. We have none of the Rankin’s original furniture, and the extensive memoirs left by both John

Rob Brookover and Mike Starkey of Cohee Preservation Co. discuss molding details in one of the Rankin house’s second floor bedrooms.

original stenciling have been found often seem to be along popular early migration routes, and the Rankin house’s proximity to the Ohio River and Zane’s Trace, which terminates at nearby Maysville, Kentucky, suggests that this may have been the case.

“Surviving evidence of early stenciling is pretty rare” says Buchanan. “They were usually executed in water-soluble distemper paint and were very easily damaged. The technique, however, appears to have been very popular into the 1840s, and many early houses were origi-

nally decorated this way”. If anyone knows of examples of early stenciling, the Ohio Historical Society would be very interested in hearing from them. Chris Buchanan can be reached by e-mail at cbuchanan@ohiohistory.or g or by phone at (419) 4967243.

Creature Feature Keeping your pet well this fall Many of our clients have been asking us recently if we offer wellness plans. We listened to your request, and have developed a very unique, All Creatures wellness program perfect for your pet and your budget. Some of the details are below, and much more will be on our website and in our hospital moving forward. But for now we would like to take a few minutes and explain what we are going to offer, and how it will benefit both you and your pet(s). Wellness plans are not pet insurance, but instead are a bundled group of services needed to prevent disease and provide the best medicine and protection for your pet. They often have plan benefits, and can be funded either in full on the date of purchase, or by making monthly installments deducted directly from your checking or savings account. We examined wellness programs for many, many different veterinarians, and attended countless lectures at the North American Veterinary Conference to try to offer you the best possible care at the best price. We think we have done just that, and we are all very pleased to offer you these plans, with all of the bundled products coming in at a 20 percent discount! Ok, on to the good stuff, just what will you get, and how much it will be. • Puppy Plans starting at $21/month • Kitten Plans starting at 22/month • Dog Plans starting at $15/month • Cat Plans starting at $14/month For each category, we offer a basic plan. That basic plan includes your pet's needed vaccines, diagnostic testing, and wellness examinations. Think of the vaccine packages we offer now and that is the basic package with the addition of a few "perks". First of all, your pet will get a minimum of 2 wellness visits, where he or she will receive a comprehensive examination from a veterinarian. This is essential to good health and illness prevention. Besides the extra

exam and vaccines you will receive the following in our basic plan: • 10 percent off additional services and products. If you have that emergency appointment, it will cost you less if you are a wellness plan member • Unlimited nail trims. Oh yeah, no more blood trails through the kitchen, no more wrestling to trim that dewclaw, we have you covered with unlimited free nail trims! • $20 co-pay for sick visits. If your pet is sick, you will only pay a copay to see the vet, making your visit much more affordable. Each of the items in the plans are 20 percent off of our already low prices, making this program the most affordable wellness care we have ever offered! Some pets require more services because of their age, breed, or medical history. Because of that, our plans are targeted, veterinarian driven, custom plans. Because in addition to the basic plan, your vet will recommend additional services your pet needs based on the physical exam. If you would like to do comprehensive

bloodwork, we can add it. X-Rays to check for tumors, we can add it. Spay, Neuter, Declaw, ear cleanings, anal gland expression, glaucoma screenings, it can all be added into your wellness plan. We can find the right fit for you and your pet, and you can rest assured that you are providing the best preventative care for your pet. If you have questions about our wellness program please email our Medical Practice Manager at info@allcreatures.com The plans begin at $14 a month, and go up based on the category and your veterinarian’s recommendations. If you don’t want to pay monthly that is no problem, you can fully fund your plan when you sign up and then enjoy a year of preventative care and benefits for your best friend How do you sign up? You can sign up anytime by phone. There is a wellness information sheet on our website that helps speed up the process of signing up. You can also sign up at any of our three convenience locations. Remember to bring your checking account information (account number and routing number). Dr. Dan Meakin is the owner of All Creatures Animal Hospital, 1894 Ohio Pike in Amelia.

Fall colors start to emerge as Autumn officially begins

CMYK

Autumn officially began on Sunday, Sept. 22, and with its arrival people may begin to notice some colors emerging as the fall color season begins, according to Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). “The signs of fall color are starting to be noticed around the state,” said ODNR Fall Color Forester Casey Burdick. “Ohioans will start to see yellow leaves on buckeye trees and blushes of red from Virginia creeper and poison ivy.” Ohioans may also notice a few tree species including buckeye and black walnut with leaf disease, which is caused by consistent rainfall during the spring and summer months. These trees typically have leaves that turn brown along the edges or have black spots in addition to the leaf turning yellow. However, these trees should once again leaf out in the spring. This also is the perfect time of year to hit the links at one of our six award-winning Ohio State Park golf courses. Surrounded by Ohio ’s best natural land-

scapes and views, golfers will find a challenge appropriate for any skill level while enjoying the array of fall colors around them. People interested in finding out where the most captivating leaves will be throughout the upcoming fall color season should check out fallcolor.ohiodnr.gov, ODNR’s premier guide to Ohio ’s fall color season. This website includes: Weekly color updates and information to help plan a fall color adventure. Weekly videos from Burdick that will highlight color hot spots around the state and provide information about some of Ohio ’s 100-plus tree species. Links for fall activities, scenic road trips and more, including unique overnight accommodations at Ohio State Parks Looking for some great fall getaway ideas?

Remember tidying up the garden will ensure the healthy and vigorous development of next year’s flowers, foods, lawns, and ornamental plants. Also, don’t forget to protect those young trees from rutting deer. If the trunk is 1 to 4 inches in diameter, you can use a piece of 4-inch plastic drain tile. Split/cut it down one side and slide it on the tree. Be sure to take it off the first of March. Each year a buck deer works his magic on several of my Norway spruce trees. Visitors often comment on my natural pruning techniques. I just smile and remember how cute the fawns were in the spring.

Patrol reminds pedestrians and motorists that safety is everyone’s responsibility People around the state of Ohio walk or run for exercise, walk out of necessity, LIEUTENANT RANDY MCELFRESH or for various other reasons and the Patrol is reminding both pedestrians and motorists that safety is everyone’s responsibility. From 2010-2012, there were 7,611 pedestrian-involved crashes in Ohio which resulted in 311 fatalities and more than 6,500 injuries. Pedestrian crashes occurred most frequently in the larger metropolitan areas in the state including Cuyahoga, Franklin and Hamilton counties. Of the fatal pedestrian-related crashes occurring from 2010-2012, 46 percent were alcohol and/or drug related. Of these, 69 percent involved an impaired pedestrian. “Through education about the law and increased awareness, we can have a significant impact on reducing these crashes in our state,” said Lt. Kevin Long, commander of the Cincinnati Post. Ohio Law and safety tips: Where a sidewalk is provided, it is unlawful for pedestrians to walk along and upon the adjacent roadway.

Georgetown golf wins division, has player, coach of the year BY Brandon Barb The Brown County Press

Western Brown junior wide receiver Christian Dawson (11) tries to score against Ross Sept. 13. Dawson caught 11 passes against Greenville for 174 yards, and two touchdowns. The Broncos beat the Green Wave 42-28.

Broncos still undefeated, moving back into league play BY Brandon Barb The Brown County Press The long trip up to Greenville High School didn’t faze the Western Brown Broncos much as they beat the Green Wave 42-28 on Sept. 27. “We didn’t play to our potential,” Western Brown Head Coach Evan Dreyer said. “We won a game where we didn’t play well. Our kids came out without energy and enthusiasm during the first half. In the second half our defense played very well and held them to seven points. Our offense played like they should have and scored more after the half.” The game against Greenville was at the end of fair week, but Dreyer isn’t using that or the bus ride as an excuse for how the team played during the first half. “We just didn’t play well. But the biggest thing is that our kids fought

through it. To be successful we have to fight through different adversities each week and we did that.” The Bronco defense played a huge role in the win against the Green Wave. Collectively the team had three interceptions from seniors Derrick McIntosh and Jarred Haggerty, along with sophomore Michael Otis-Hensley. Haggerty’s interception included a run back for a touchdown. “Jarred Haggerty hasn’t played very much on defense [this season] but it just shows the senior leadership and togetherness of wanting to win,” Dreyer said. Since the comeback win against Ross, the Bronco defense has been getting better, according to Dreyer. On the offensive side of the ball, senior quarterback Devyn Wood threw for 316 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. Wood also ran for two

touchdowns. So far in the season, Wood has thrown for 1,875 yards, 17 touchdowns and has a completion percentage of 71.1 percent. Wood is also leading the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area in passing yards. Against Greenville, junior wide receiver Christian Dawson caught 11 passes for 174 yards and two touchdowns. Sophomore wide receiver Eean Hornung caught three passes for 76 yards and one touchdown. “I was so happy that even though some guys were injured, some had to come out and play different spots. It showed that we are a team that wanted to win and make sure our players were playing as a team,” Dreyer said. Half way through the season the Broncos are leading the league, and undefeated, so there is some pressure associated with the top spot.

Dreyer feels there is pressure put on the team, like when Greenville introduced them as number one before the game on Sept. 27. “The pressure we put on ourselves to improve and get to a standard of excellence is a lot more pressure for us,” Dreyer said. “I hope these kids don’t feel any, especially with people telling them to keep winning. We as coaches just want to go 1-0 each week.” In the five games left on the schedule, three are league games and only two are at home. The three league games are Goshen, Amelia and Norwood. The two teams the Broncos lost to last year, Batavia and Norwood, are visiting La Rosas Field and the Western Brown players feel they can beat both of them this time around.

For the second straight year, the Georgetown golf team has won the National Division in the Southern Buckeye Athletic/Academic Conference. The GMen and Women won the league tournament on Sept. 21 at Cedar Trace Golf Course with a total team score of 1004. “It feels good to repeat that,” Georgetown Head Coach Sherri Griffith said. “I felt we had a chance and the kids played well throughout the season. I had thought it would be a real possibility last year.” In the first round, Georgetown players scored 162, followed by 170, 162, 159, and 351 in the other four. Batavia finished second, Blanchester third, Clermont Northeastern fourth, Felicity fifth and Williamsburg did not qualify. Along with winning the league, Georgetown senior Trent Poe earned Player of the Year and Griffith was awarded Coach of the Year. “He [Trent] played steady all season. He shot anywhere from one or two over, to four or five over consistently,” Griffith said. “I was looking forward

to it all year. It was my main goal this season, and now it is to get to state,” Poe said. Griffith continued, “I have to give all the credit to the kids for that [coach of the year]. They played well and they’re the ones who got that for me.” Poe’s teammates Clinton McElroy and Austin Biggs finished second and third individually with scores of 243 and 256. Poe had an individual score of 237. “Clint, Hugh and Jessica are returning next season. They’re all good kids and I wish I had them all back next year,” Griffith said. Moving forward, Poe is headed to districts and according to Griffith, if he plays like he has all year he has a real chance at doing well. But Poe is graduating, and a big problem for Griffith is recruiting players before the start of next season. “I would like to get more kids interested in playing the sport,” Griffith said. “Where there are more than five kids on the team. I want to try to get a couple more girls as well.”

Georgetown senior Meranda Sullivan (26) tried to score against Williamsburg Oct. 1. The Lady G-Men lost 25-17, 25-15, 25-19. They have three games left, all league.

Tough season for Lady Jay volleyball BY Brandon Barb The Brown County Press It has been a tough year for the Ripley volleyball team. The Lady Jays have only won one game this season, going 1-15 and 1-7 in league play. With only a few games left, the Lady Jay loss column doesn’t show how hard the girls have been working, according to head coach Mark Gilkerson. “We’re young and inexperienced,” Gilkerson said. “Most of these kids have just come out of the junior high level and its just a lack of communication. This game takes a lot of communication and a lot vocal cues from the players.” During the Lady Jays loss to West Union on Sept. 30, lack of communication was a factor as well. “They just clam up and don’t move,” Gilkerson said. “It has been happening all season. Its been a never ending thing, but we are getting better. We’ve seen a lot of improvements since day one.” The West Union Lady Dragons beat Ripley in three games; 25-12, 27-25,

26-24. The Lady Jays switched gears after the first game, and they kept the rest of the match exciting and competitive. “They had a good momentum going, but again they had a lack of communication. Girls in the back row were going after balls the front row should have, and the other way around,” GIlkerson said. “Hopefully some day they get that down.” Lady Jay freshman Kacy Gilkerson helped keep her team within reach with some crowd pleasing play, so did freshman Kassey Arnett and senior Kelci Bowling. “Both Kacy and Kassey are big hitters and if they get their timing down on their hitting, they will be hard to beat,” Gilkerson said. Senior player Bowling has been a leader for the younger girls. “She has always been trying to be one from the first day, and she’s done a very good job,” Gilkerson said. Next season should be bright for the team, with the majority of them being freshmen and sophomores

returning-- there is only one senior (Bowling) on the team this year. “I haven’t thought about next season to be honest, but if they have me back I think we could do well,” Gilkerson said. “Maybe not season, it will be an improvement but I say when the freshmen become juniors I think they’ll be one of the teams to beat.” Even though there are a few games left, Gilkerson believes his team will be tough up until the final one. “We got a pretty tough schedule,” he said. “We got Lynchburg on the 11th, and I think if we got all of our players, we could match up with them very well.” The team might be young but this season will be a jumping off point for the Lady Jays who are returning for the 2014 season. “They got the athleticism and talent, but the communication needs to get there. These girls are actually a lot better than what their record shows,” Gilkerson said.

Hard fought 2-1 win against New Richmond for Lady Bronco soccer BY Sabrina Mignerey The Brown County Press

The Lady G-Men served well, with a few aces throughout the match but there were some hiccups though. “The biggest thing we need to improve on is to have our blockers go all the way across the net. We’re only used to blocking on the sides and Williamsburg kept hitting in the middle,” Devries said. The two seniors for the Lady G-Men played well against Williamsburg, and have throughout the season. “I’m proud of them,” Devries said. “Allison Kistler, this is the first time she has played libero so she’s really stepped up and filled that role well in the back line. And Meranda Sullivan is an all around player, she can hit she can set. I think they both have done a good job accepting their roles this year.” Georgetown takes on the Batavia Bulldogs on Monday, FelicityFranklin Tuesday and then on Thursday the Lady G-Men goes to Clermont Northeastern -all three contests are league games.

The Western Brown Lady Bronco’s varsity soccer team battled against the New Richmond Lions on September 29th and came out on top with a victory, with a score of 2-1. The goals for the Broncos were scored by Seniors Holly O’Hara and Sara Benz. The Lady Broncos started out the year slowly with a record of 0-4 and then 1-5, but the team has improved to a record of 66-1, now sitting at .500. The Lady Broncos are a young team with 4-5 Freshmen starting at any one

time. When asked how he feels the season is going, Coach Silvis replied by saying he believes that his young team is acclimating and is catching on very well. Coach Silvis also believes that the teams’ strength is their resiliency. The team started out 0-4 and then 1-5, and feels that any other team might have thrown in the towel at that point. The team fought back to .500 and has a chance at a winning record this year. The Broncos allowed 13 goals in the first five games of the season, but in the last seven games only 3-4 goals

were allowed. Silvas said the team is playing hard and keeping it all together. He also feels that one of their strong points is their defense, saying the defense is what is keeping them in the game and keeping them competitive. Coach Silvis believes the team will keep improving, by keeping up the hard work and doing their best. “1-2 years down the road with more experience, we will be a team to reckon with.”, he said. With three games left Coach Silvis is very proud of how far his team has come, and if the Lady Broncos keep fighting believes they will finish the year with a winning record.

Western Brown boys soccer suffers two straight loses during fair week BY Brandon Barb The Brown County Press Fair week ended on somewhat of a sour note for the Western Brown boys soccer team as they lost to New Richmond, on senior night, 2-0. Bringing the Bronco’s record to 6-6-1 on the season. “We lacked energy throughout the game,” Western Brown Head Coach Kyle Fender said. “We weren’t able to maintain possession for long stretches, and we came out flat and were never quite got the energy we needed.” The Broncos lost to Amelia 3-2 on Sept. 24 and then to New Richmond on Sept. 26. “There is a mentality change during fair, but at the same time we have to rise above that,” Fender said. “We came off a great stretch of games, and even a good effort

against Amelia, so we had high expectations going into this one [New Richmond].” Before the two losses during fair week, the Broncos went on a three game win streak. They beat Blanchester 3-1, Georgetown 5-1 and Clermont Northeastern 10-1. Fender knew the game against New Richmond was going to be tough. The Lions are 7-3-3 and sitting at the top of the American Division in the Southern Buckeye Athletic/Academic Conference. Western Brown is fifth. “We knew that they have some gifted players, skill wise, so we prepared defending them. We also knew they are aggressive in the air on crosses,” Fender said. Fender continued, “Our goal keeper, Ben Lamb, had a real nice game. I think he was

solid all night. He made several great saves for us.” There are only a few games left on the Broncos’ schedule. The team plays Norwood on Tuesday and Goshen on Thursday. Both are league games. “The league is dead even this year. There really is no team that stands out or stands behind, I’ve been saying that all season,” Fender said. “So I look for a very competitive end to league play this year.” With teams so close together in the league, Fender said the Broncos hope to finish within the top half of the American Division. But Fender and the team are “taking it game by game at this point.” “There’s no one on our schedule we can afford to overlook,” Fender said.

The Lady G-Men volleyball team haven’t had the best of seasons, going 2-16, and being 06 in league play. While this season hasn’t been as good as it was in 2012 -- overall 12-12 and 6-4 in the league -- head coach Donna Devries believes the girls will turn it around next season. “We’re really young and we lost a couple of girls this season, one to injury,” Devries said. “Its taken us a long time to gel and get where we need everyone to be.” Devries said the team is “vertically challenged” and doesn’t have “that tall person who really hit the ball.” Moving forward though, Devries said there will be seven solid freshmen moving up from the junior varsity team. Along with all but two players from the varsity team, the Lady GMen should be back on the winning track. “It just takes a while for them to get used to that caliber of game,” Devries said.

But the girls have to get through the rest of this season before preparing for the next one. The Brown County Fair gave some problems to the Lady G-Men, in terms of girls not being able to make it to practice during the week off from school, but it didn’t completely hinder them from competing. On Oct. 1, the Williamsburg Wildcats beat Georgetown in three games 25-17, 25-15, 2519. “Its always hard for us to come back after the fair, with the girls being involved with things there,” Devries said. “Its hard to have that week off and only have a few in here practice, but I was proud of the girls. I thought they stayed with them and played hard.” “Some things didn’t go our way. Williamsburg does have some really good hitters, and we’re vertically challenged, so they got the best of us there,” Devries said. “We never let down, and we kept working hard. Its probably the most hits we’ve gotten in a long time.”

Lady Warriors plagued by injuries all season, hope to be healthy for tournament BY Brandon Barb The Brown County Press Even though the Eastern Lady Warrior soccer team lost five players during the game, they still found a way to stay competitive with the Lady Rockets of Fayetteville-Perry. The score was close, until the final minutes of the second half. With Eastern losing 5-2 to the Lady Rockets. “I’m disappointed we lost but honestly my girls played extremely hard the whole game,” Eastern Coach Sara Koehler said. “And with five of our girls hurt in the game, including our keeper, we took a big hit from that.” With so many players out of the game, Koehler had girls playing positions they normally don’t play. “It’s always a physical game, but it is frustrating to see soccer played like that,” Koehler said. “I was proud of my girls for how they played, and they didn’t lose their heads and kept playing hard and didn’t give up.” The goals for Eastern came from sophomore Kayla Tomlin, the first was

assisted by senior Kaylie Ruckel and the second was a free kick. Fayetteville junior Sydney Flora made three goals, senior Megan South had one and sophomore Riley Claytor scored one as well. “Our defense did a good job keeping them from scoring until the end of the game, we just got tired because we didn’t have any subs,” Koehler said. She continued, “We did a really good job of crashing every shot that we had, and keeping control with our forwards. But we need to work on more control through the midfield, and having more possession of the ball.” The Lady Warriors have had injury problems throughout the season, but Koehler hopes her players will be healthy by the tournament time, which is in a few weeks. “We’ve been up and down this season, we would play really well then the next game we would slack off a little bit. But we’ve had so many injuries we’ve had no subs, so the girls have had to play a lot of minutes,” she said.

Fayetteville Rockets drop tough second game 35-14, looking to improve for rest of season BY Brandon Barb The Brown County Press After winning against Miami Valley Christian Academy in the downpour of rain Sept. 20, the Fayetteville-Perry football team headed into their game at Grove City Christian with high spirits. But the Rockets weren’t able to win two in a row and dropped the Sept. 27 game 35-14. “It was a tough one,” Fayetteville Head Coach Nathan Geers said. “We didn’t come out with the focus on the game and the results speak for themselves.” Geers continued, “We didn’t play with the intensity and passion we should have, but we just had a lack of focus.” The Rockets’ lack of focus was a “combination of things.” Mainly the bus ride there, and fair week had a factor in the game, according to

Geers. “Grove City is a good football team and they came out with a good game plan,” Geers said. “I thought we competed to the end though. We got down 35-7 and we were able to score at the end. We kept playing all the way up to the final whistle.” The Rocket offense wasn’t able to get much going, but the defense did some good things, according to Geers. “We shut down their tailback but we gave up some big plays on special teams and in our pass coverage,” he said. Fayetteville senior Andrew Dowers made another interception, which brings him to five on the season, according to Geers. “We are going to take this game as a learning experience. Its going to be a positive thing for us, because the seniors won’t let it happen again,” Geers said.

For the rest of the season, each game will be a challenge for the Rockets. After Dayton, Fayetteville is at home for three games against Aiken, Horizon Science Academy and Landmark Christian. The last game of the season will be at Batavia. “Each week we’re going to be in a dogfight,” Geers said. “But we need to put our best foot forward. 3-2 is a pretty good record for the first half but we just have to continue to improve.” The big aspects that Geers wants to improve are the Rocket passing game, which hasn’t got off the ground yet. And on the defense, Geers would like to work on the coverage skills of his players.

Waterfowl: Hunters age 15 and younger may hunt waterfowl statewide on Oct. 5-6, and they must be accompanied by a non-hunting adult 18 years or older (no more than two youths per adult). More details regarding waterfowl zones, bag limits and licensing requirements can be found in the 2013-2014 Ohio Waterfowl Hunting Seasons publication and on the 20132014 Waterfowl Hunting Seasons page at wildohio.com. Small game: Hunters age 17 and younger may hunt statewide for rabbit, pheasant and all other legal game in season during two designated weekends, Oct. 19-20 and Oct. 26-27. Quail also may be hunted in 16 designated open counties. The ODNR Division of Wildlife will release pheasants prior to these weekend dates on the following state wildlife areas: Berlin, Caesar Creek, Camp Belden, Darke, Delaware, Dillon, Fallsville, Grand River, Killdeer Plains, Oxbow, Resthaven, Rush Run, Spencer, Tiffin River and Wellington, and Charlemont Metropark in Lorain County and Ringneck Ridge Area in Sandusky County. A permit is required to hunt the Ringneck Ridge Area. The free permit can be obtained from the Sandusky County Park District by calling 419-334-4495. White-tailed deer: A youth deer-gun season will be open statewide Nov. 23-24 for hunters age 17 and younger. Hunters holding a valid youth hunting license and youth deer permit may harvest deer of either sex during this season in accordance with existing bag limits. Young hunters, regardless of age, must be accompanied by a non-hunting adult, 18 years or older, when hunting during this season. Wild turkey: It is not too early to begin planning for the 2014 spring youth wild turkey hunting season. A statewide spring youth wild turkey season will be offered April 19-20, 2014. This hunt is open to youth age 17 and younger. To participate in a youth hunt, all young hunters must be accompanied by a nonhunting adult and must abide by all regular hunting hours and bag limits. Accompany means to go along with another person while staying within a distance from the person which enables uninterrupted, unaided visual and auditory communications. A valid 2013-14 youth hunting license, along with appropriate permits, is required. For complete details on all of Ohio 's youth hunting seasons, refer to the 2013-2014 Ohio Hunting Regulations, call 800WILDLIFE (945-3543) or go to wildohio.com.

MARY HOWLETTE Sawyers, Gordon Mitchell, Mason Phillips, Ray Gelter, James Alexander, Bonnie Murphy, Gerald Brown, and Henry Craycraft. *** Meteorite-supposedly last week a meteorite entered the earth's atmosphere and hit a house in Adams County burning it and it's occupants to death. This came from a trusted Adams County source. *** The Appalachian Mountain Artisan's Fest will be October 11-13. For more information call (937) 6955545. Also, the same weekend the Wheat Ridge Olde Thyme Herb Fair & Harvest Celebration. For more information Kim Erwin (937) 544-8252. *** Confederate Railroad

will be at the Red Barn on October 12 and the 11th annual Jack Roush Day at the Manchester Riverbarn will be on October 13. *** Well, an item that has drawn interest has been called “Fly-In at Adams County Salamon Airport.” The press release lists many interesting sounding events including at least one if not more sky drivers, plus various aircrafts. For more information call (937) 544-5454. What I just found out that this airshow is a re-dedication of the airport. According to a letter from Dr. Salamons daughter, Dr. Salamon was born and raised in Czechoslovakia. He, along with the woman who became his second wife, were imprisoned in concentration camps Auschwitz and Dachau. Doctor Salamon's first wife and young daughter were killed by Nazis, as were both sets of parents. Somehow they, Dr and his second wife and two more daughters, found their way to Winchester,

Sens. Brown and Portman honor Ohioan, Olympian and Civil Rights icon Jesse Owens Today, U.S. Sens. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Rob Portman (R-OH) honored Ohioan Jesse Owens on what would have been his 100th birthday. A Senate Resolution introduced by Brown, and co-sponsored by Portman, recognizes Owens who is widely credited as one of the greatest athletes and Olympians in world history and a civil rights icon who singlehandedly discredited false theories of racial superiority at the 1936 Berlin Games. “The legacy of Ohioan Jesse Owens will stand the test of time,” Brown said. “As an athlete he won world records and Olympic gold medals while dominating his sport as few ever have or ever will. He became a global icon when at the 1936 Berlin Games he discredited the theory that the Aryan race was superior to others. And he concluded his life as an ambassador to the United States and an ambassador to the poor. But to achieve each, Mr. Owens had to endure hatred and bigotry from outside agitators and even the school and country he competed for and represented. For these efforts, he made Ohio, the United States, and the world a better place.” “I am thrilled that the United States Senate has chosen to honor Jesse Owens on the hundredth anniversary of his birth. Jesse Owens inspired a nation, stood up to tyranny, and helped advance the cause of racial equality through not only his ath-

stated that on October 13 he returns to Red Oak. At that time he plans to bring shoeboxes for anyone that is interested in participating in packing a shoebox for a child. In the meanwhile, if you have questions I will plan to attempt to answer them or find out the answer for you. Call (937) 392-4261 or email marysalisburyhowelett@g mail.com. *** Yesterday was a sad day yet still a day to rejoice as the Manchester Presbyte-

rian Church held it's final service. Shirley Brierly and I attended this service. What a pleasure to see the church filled with former congregational members and friends of MPC that came to celebrate the rich 200 year history of the house of worship. Communion was served for the final time as songs of worship were sang without the aid of a musical instrument; it is very doubtful that there was a dry eye in the house.

Sardinia Summer Festival Committee being formed Do you like to work with other people in the community? People are currently being sought to become members of a new Sardinia Summer Festival Committee which will begin making plans for

the summer 2014. If you are interested in serving on the committee please call Sardinia Mayor Todd Bumbalough at (937 446-3807 or Patrick Cahall at (937) 446-1434.

letic prowess, but the content of his character,” Portman said. “In the 1936 Olympics, his four gold medals exposed the lie at the heart of Nazism and made him an American hero.” At the age of nine, Owens moved from Alabama to Cleveland, Ohio where as a track and field star he broke two junior high school world records and set one and tied another high school world record. While a student and athlete at the Ohio State University, Owens could not live on campus due to a lack of housing for Black students, and could not stay at the same hotels or eat at the same restaurants as his White teammates. But Owens endured, and at the 1935 Big Ten Conference Track and Field Championships he set three world records and tied another— in a 45 minute span and with an injured back. Owens’ most enduring legacy, however, was embarrassing the hateful regime that hosted the 1936 Berlin Olympics by winning four gold medals, discrediting the false theory that racial disparity determined athletic achievement. Despite these accomplishments, Owens was neither recognized by Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt or Harry S. Truman. He was, however, named Ambassador of Sport by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1955 during which he advocated for social and economic justice.

were Dr. Salamon practiced medicine until his death from lung cancer in 1971. Dr. Salamon had bought a farm that reminded him of the farm where he was raised in eastern Europe. When he learned that Adams County was hoping to attract industry to the area he donated a portion of that farm for an airport. The letter goes on to state, “We believe this was an act of gratitude to the people of Adams County. It means a great deal to us to see our father's name kept alive in Adams County, a place that gave him a second chance at life.” *** Last Sundays worship leader at the Red Oak Presbyterian Church was Ken Spielvogel. Ken and his home church are very involved in the mission project called Operation Christmas Child through Samaritan’s Purse. The organization serves the Church worldwide to promote the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Ken
