Friends of North Adams Library dedicate new brick Veterans Memorial After two years in the planning, public is invited to join the brick tribute to vets BY PATRICIA BEECH PEOPLE'S DEFENDER The Friends of the North Adams Library (FNAL) held a Wednesday ceremony dedicating the library's new Veterans
Memorial. The memorial, surrounding the base of the building's flag pole, is comprised of bricks inscribed with the names of veterans. “This is our tribute to veterans,” said Patty
Wilmoth, member of the FNAL, “It's been a long time coming, but we finally got it together, and Patricia Beech | People’s Defender we're very proud of it.” The FNAL envisioned a Karen Hughes, far left, President of the Friends of the North Adams Library, speaks to the crowd assembled at Wednesday’s dedication ceremony of the memorial that would See Memorial / A5 new brick Veterans Memorial.

But I don’t know what time it is
This is part three of a series about Richard and his wife Marjory. Richard was admitted to hospice for non-alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver when he was 66. In part one, "It's a wonderful life", we learned that all work is honorable and that any life can be "wonderful" when lived with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, "as unto the Lord". (Colossians 3:1723). In part two, "Accidental or Providential", we learned that, "A man's heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps." (Proverbs 16:9) Richard enjoyed his work as a staff and sports writer for the Portsmouth Daily Times but his real passion was seeing others come to know Christ Jesus. I've come to respect the way Richard kept working, kept producing, and kept serving through years of illness and suffering. But Richard's body is wearing out and it's beginning to hold him hostage. A couple months ago he shared, "As far as energy, I'm about done for. I've been thinking about whether or not to stop taking my medications. My nurse told me that there will probably come a time when my medications will be like I just didn't take them. I don't know what to do. Is God ready for me to go on or does He still have something for me to do? How do you know when it's time to tell everybody goodbye? I don't know what time it is." So I asked him, "What time does it feel like to you?", and he replied, "I think it's between eleven-thirty and twelve. I can tell a difference. I'm having more pain and I don't have any endurance. But no one has told me its ten minutes to twelve yet. And I believe there is still something I need to do." I suggested, "Richard do you think that maybe one of the things you still need to do is for

In 1933, the Adams County Historical Society placed a large stone historical marker at the site of Treber Inn located on Zane Trace. Over 83 years it has silently told the story of how Ebenezar Zane marked and cleared the first highway in Ohio in 1796, known as Zane Trace. Soon after the Treber Inn was built to accommodate highway travelers with food, lodging and entertainment. According to Bill Sininger, the present owner of the Treber Inn, the monument was accidentally knocked over several times in the last 83 years. The last time was fatal to the monument. A large corner of the base was shattered beyond repair so that it could not stand upright. Fortunately the damage was covered by insurance.
The Peebles Monument Company secured an identical stone and engraved the information to look just like the original. It now stands in its original location along Route 41 near the Treber Inn. Steve Ryan, owner of the Peebles Monument Company, donated his time and material along with equipment to place the broken stone horizontal rather than upright at the Adams County Historical Society campus. It joins hundreds of other Adams County Historical artifacts for the enlightenment of those who visit the Heritage Center museum. Visitors are encouraged to stop by the museum located just north of the courthouse square on Route 247. It is open each Thursday and Saturday, noon- 4 p.m.

Veterinarian Feed Directive Programs PES will present ‘Beauty and the Beast’ LOCAL NEWS
West Union People’s Defender
As we near the end of 2016 we near the beginning of the need for more veterinarian services for our livestock. We will need assistance in the form of written documentation from a veterinarian in order to purchase and/or feed any medicated feed. As I have stated in past columns and on the radio, this includes several of the common used feeds. This is for feed, mineral, and water applications. This is not dealing with medication that is injected. The list of things that will require veterinarian paperwork will include, in part, milk replacer, medicated minerals, and crumbles. This has been in the works for some time, and I have discussed it several times in this newspaper, but many people still have a puzzled look on their face when I mention it. Getting the word out on stuff like this can be a challenge. The need to make contact with your veterinarian prior to January is critical. In many cases the local veterinarians have a pretty big list of clients. One thing for sure, these farm visits can’t all happen in a week. I
would suggest you take the opportunity to contact your veterinarian and get the process started as soon as you can. In the meantime we will continue to be involved in training sessions that will give producers the opportunity to listen to the rules and regulations. This will also be an opportunity to ask questions and find out how these changes will impact your operation so you can take the steps you need to and not be caught off guard six months from now. There will be more added to this list in the coming weeks, but here is what I am aware of at this point.
Sunday, October 23, 2016 A5
Cherry Fork Farm Supply will have an informational dinner on Nov. 15. Master Feed Mill in Hillsboro is working on a date. I have talked to others, but the dates and times are not available just yet. I will continue to list these as they become available. In the meantime I will be traveling to the Ohio Department of Agriculture on Nov. 10 for training on the latest details about the rules and regulations. Hopefully this will not be as big of a deal as it seems. It will require more planning and definitely more record keeping, but that is not always a bad thing.

Flu shots really do work
Influenza can do more than make you feel miserable. Complications of influenza include pneumonia, sinusitis, and worsening of chronic health problems, often seriously. Thousands of people die every year in the United States from complications of influenza. Those at greatest risk of serious complications include young children, pregnant women, people with chronic health conditions like asthma, heart disease, and diabetes, and people 65 years of age and older. Some influenza viruses tend to cause more serious illness in young healthy people, sometimes even leading to death. Fortunately, safe and effective vaccines are available to prevent influenza infection or lessen its severity. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention recommends the use of injectable influenza vaccines during the 2016-2017 flu season. The nasal spray flu vaccine will not be available this year due to concerns that it wasn’t as effective as injectable vaccines in past years. The flu vaccine will protect against two influenza type A viruses and either one

type B virus (trivalent) or two type B viruses (quadrivalent). The viruses selected for this year’s flu vaccines are those that experts have predicted will be circulating in the country this year. Everyone six months of age and older should receive an influenza vaccine every year. Infants less than six months of age are too young to receive the vaccine. They are best protected by making certain everyone who cares for them have been vaccinated. The most common side effects from the influenza vaccine are soreness, redness, or swelling where the injection was given. Some people may develop a low grade

Each brick is inscribed with a veteran's name, branch of service, and years of service. Veterans deceased or living are eligible. Applications for the bricks are available at the North Adams Library. The memorial was part of the library's original building plans, but when the library was completed in 2013, the design for the memorial project had not been finalized. “When they were building the library we were focused on putting the flag pole right out front because we had this project in mind,” said Hughes. “It has taken us a couple years to find the right people to lay the bricks, but

Planting bulbs in the fall will pay off later A6 West Union People’s Defender
BY FAYE MAHAFFEY OSUE MASTER GARDENER VOLUNTEER
If thinking about the end of summer is getting you down, it’s time to plan and plant your spring
flowering bulb show. Autumn is the time to plant crocus, daffodils, tulips and many other spring bloomers. Don’t be like me and skip the fall bulb planting, only to regret it in the spring.

We all know that the fall chores are daunting, but taking a few hours to plant some bu lbs will bring a smile to your face next spring. Do you remember where your daffodils are planted? Have you made notes in your garden journal? If the answer is “No”, get that journal out when you start planting new bulbs. Spring flowering bulbs are planted in the fall to allow them to establish roots before top growth begins in spring. Planting too early may cause the bulbs to sprout this fall, only to be killed back by winter weather. Planting too late may not give the bulbs adequate time to root before winter. Bulbs should be planted in late September through October. Fall planting also ensures adequate chilling of the bulbs to promote flower bud initiation. Most species require 10 – 12 weeks of storage at 40 – 50 degrees F. According to a Purdue Extension fall newsletter, “Start your bulb garden out on the right path by
planting only quality bulbs available from local garden centers or reputable online/email order sources. It’s best to shop early to ensure the best selection of variety and quality. Select large, firm bulbs, and avoid those that are sprouting or molding.” “While many bulbs adapt to a wide range of soil types, none can tolerate poorly drained soil. Prepare the planting bed by adding organic matter, such as p eat moss, wellrotted manure or compost. Depending on the specific site conditions, you may or may not need to add additional fertilizer. A soil test ahead of planting will determine needs for that site. Mix all amendments thoroughly with the soil in the bed before you plant the bulbs.” The size of the bulb and the species will dictate the proper planting depth and spacing, generally the depth should be appro ximately 2.5 – 3 times the diameter of the bulb at its widest. Purchased bulbs should come with planting instructions.
Daffodil Bulbs
Twenty-two years ago I planted 125 tulip bulbs in a new flower bed in our front yard. The following spring, I had a huge showing of maybe 15 tulips blooming. The 25 daffodil bulbs I had planted as an “after thought” bloomed their little hearts out. When I head out to plant my daffodil bulbs I make a trip to the barn to grab the cordless drill and my bulb “auger”. I love to see the daffodils popping up along the tree line and sometimes to my husband’s dismay, I plant some out in the grass
under some trees. He has finally accepted that fact that he can’t mow them down the day after the bloom fades. Are you raking leaves? We worked for several hours raking, blowing, and shredding leaves and laughed (or cried) as we looked up and saw all the leaves still left on the trees. The snow fence is back up around the Bald Cypress tree in the lower yard to fend off rubbing bucks. I am sure that old “Baldy” is sleeping better tonight knowing he is protected.

Lady Devils will collect fourth consecutive SHAC gold ball trophy
North Adams volleyball again perfect in conference play BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER
never lost a conference match. Four years ago, we had some holes on offense and defense but my seniors and juniors have worked really hard in their off seasons and now we are a solid team.” “Three years ago, we played several five-set matches in the conference and now this year, we don't even lose a set.” The Lady Devils wrapped up their undefeated 2016 conference schedule on Oct. 13 with a dominant win at home over the Ripley Lady Jays, 25-5, 25-5, and 25-8. With that victory, the North Adams girls extended a streak that has them not losing a conference match since the 2012 season. Seniors Maddie Toole and Madison Jenkins went their entire high school careers without losing an SHAC match.
It is a streak unparalleled in the annals of Southern Hills Athletic Conference volleyball. For the fourth consecutive season, the North Adams Lady Devils will be collecting the prestigious gold ball trophy, given to teams who finish their conference schedule undefeated. For Coach Katie Ragan and her girls, not only was the 2016 season an unbeaten one in the SHAC, but the Lady Devils did not even lose a set to a conference opponent, going 13-0 and winning all 13 in straight sets, a pretty amazing feat in itself. defense.

KC 27 NO 24 Indianapolis at Tennessee – Colts owner Jim Irsay messed up in a bad way by retaining General Manager Ryan Grigson. Certainly Head Coach Chuck Pagano deserves some of the blame, but Grigson has severely stunted a team that had championship potential.

TEN 27 IND 23 Minnesota at Philadelphia – Certainly a marquee match up just based on their records and quality of the teams.

For the fourth consecutive season, the North Adams Lady Devils volleyball squad will receive the golf ball trophy for going undefeated in the Southern Hills Athletic Conference. They are pictured here after defeating Ripley for their 52nd consecutive victory. Front row, from left, Sydney Kendall, Adison Wright, Maddie Toole, Abbi Stacy, and Brooklyn Stout; Back row, from left, Courtney Brown, Abby Campton, Madison Jenkins, Avery Harper, Charlee Louden, and Desirae Ison. “We just have a really good group of girls,” says Coach Ragan. “They are excellent students, give their time to help others, and I have been privileged to work with them. We defeated some teams that we have never beaten before and have our fourth gold ball. However, we have more goals to achieve before we are done.”
Those goals are for the postseason as the Lady Devils finished their regular season with a record of 19-3, with their only losses coming to Portsmouth Notre Dame, Huntington Ross, and Portsmouth City. North Adams will begin postseason play as a number three seed in Division III in the Southeast District on Saturday, Oct. 22, when
they will host fellow SHAC member Eastern Brown, who are seeded sixth. A win there earns the Lady Devils a sectional championship and a trip to district semi-final play on Oct. 25 in Waverly, facing a likely match up with number two seeded Southeastern, a team that North Adams beat in five sets very early in the 2016 season.
Seas siblings are SHAC Cross-Country champions Pennywitt breaks MHS school record for third time this season in HS Boys race BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER The 2016 Southern Hills Athletic Conference is in the books, and runners from the four Adams County schools represented them quite well in the Oct. 15 meet held on the course at Ripley High School. The county produced champions in the two high school races, with Matt Seas taking the boys race and sister Jenny Seas winning the girls. Also in the high school boys race, Manchester's Ethan Pennywitt broke the school record for the third time this season, in just his junior year. In the high school girls race consisting of 53 runners, it was a “no contest” as Jenny Seas blew away the competition with her time of 18:01.5, nearly two minutes faster than the second place finisher, Fairfield's Ciara Colwell (20:02.1). The top 15 runners in the SHAC race are recognized with AllConference honors and besides Seas, six more county girls finished in the top 15. West Union's Anna Shupert was fifth (21:30.7), Manchester's Shyanne Tucker sixth (21:45.2), Peebles' Abby Faulkner 10th (22:26.7), Manchester's Kelsey Friend 11th (22:28.0), Manchester's Billie Kinhalt 14th (22:37.2), and Peebles' Alisan Behr 15th (22:51.4). For the past three season, the high school girls team title went to Manchester, but that string was broken last week by the Fairfield Lady Lions, with the Lady Hounds placing third. It was a good day overall for the teams from Fairfield, as they won the team titles for the high school girls, high school boys, and junior high boys.
The runners from Adams County had a little tougher time cracking the top 15 in the high school boys race, but the county has a champion in Matt Seas, who won the race of 89 runners in a time of 16:14.3. Manchester's Pennywitt continued his record-breaking junior season, again breaking his own school record and placing fourth with a time of 16:55.8. Fairfield placed eight runners in the top 15, not leaving much room for any others, and the only other countian to earn All-Conference honors was Manchester's Jamie Combs who grabbed the 15th spot with a time of 17:54.6. With their monopoly on
the top 15, Fairfield easily won the high school boys team championship, with Manchester finishing third and West Union fourth. The SHAC also had their junior high races in Ripley last Saturday and in the junior high boys event, the top county finisher was Trenton McCann from North Adams, who finished fourth out of 81 runner in a time of 11:29. Manchester's Denton White was seventh at 11:32 and West Union's Braxton Blanton placed 13th in a time of 11:54. As it has been all season, the junior high girls race was another battle between Manchester's Mckenzie Morrison and Peebles' Katy Seas. This time the battle went to Morrison, who captured the SHAC title with a first-place time of 11:51,

from the Oct. 17 Div. IV sectional tournament game last Monday in Manchester. BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER
What began as a promising evening for the Manchester Lady Greyhounds volleyball squad on Monday evening turned out to be anything but that as the Lady Hounds hosted the Whiteoak Lady Wildcats in the opening round of the Southeast District Division IV sectional tournament. The Lady Hounds dominated the first set of play and looked poised to have an easy run to the sectional finals, before the Lady Cats had their say in the matter. After losing the first set 25-12, the Lady Cats stormed back to twin the next three, 25-23, 2520, and 25-10, to shock the assembled Manchester faithful and make their advance in the sectional tournament instead of the host Lady Hounds. In set number one, the home team used the strong serving of McKinlee Grooms, Abby McFarland, and Aaliyah Smith to race out to a quick 18-6 advantage. The Lady Cats rallied but a series of service points by Manchester senior Cassie Campbell led the Lady Hounds to a 2311 lead. Two points later, a well-placed tip by McFarland gave the home team the first set 25-12, and they looked to be in full control. The second started well for Manchester but the Lady Cats grabbed a lead on the serves of Lexi Jones. A kill by Katie Sandlin brought the hosts closer and then Sandlin stepped to the service line

unique one. With 6:11 to go, the Lady Redstreaks were called for a handball in the box, giving the Lady Devils the penalty kick. Coach D'Avignon made an interesting choice, pulling Shipley from the goal on the other end of the field to take the kick and she did the job, driving it home for her first goal of the season and a 1-0 halftime advantage for the home team. “That's the first time I have ever seen a goalkeeper take a penalty kick during the regular course of a game, but it was no fluke,” said Coach D'Avignon. “The whole team has been practicing penalty kicks to prepare for a possible tournament tie-breaker and Madee knows what she's doing. The whole team loved it.” “The whole first half Piketon bunkered all 11 players in front of their goal and it was difficult for us to get a clear shot. With Madee's goal, they had to come out and play offense which opened up the space for our girls to exploit, so the second half was a different story.” As the men from Monty Python might say, the sec-
and reeled off six straight to put her team in front 12-7. The Lady Hounds kept that lead though the middle of the set, going up 19-13 on a pair of service points from Campbell, forcing a Whiteoak timeout. A service ace by Grooms made it 21-14 Manchester, but then the proverbial roof caved in on the home side. Whiteoak's Jones again stepped up to the service line and by the time she was finished, a sevenpoint deficit for the Lady Cats had turned into a two-point lead at 23-21. The Lady Hounds regained their composure to tie the set at 23 on an ace by Hannah Grimes, but the Lady Cats claimed the set's final two points and took the second set 25-23. The Lady Cats carried the momentum of the second set win over into the third set, jumping in front 6-1 on five service points from Macy Knoblach. That forced Manchester head coach Kaci Compton to use a timeout and it worked as her squad rallied, again behind the serves of Grooms and a McFarland kill, to trail just 6-5. Back came Whiteoak to take six of the next eight points to stretch their lead out to 12-7 and a pair of points off serve from Gabrille Tebo gave the visitors a 15-8 advantage. The Lady Cats continued to extend their lead, going up 18-9, before Campbell again stepped up to serve for the home team, and fired off two aces in a six-point run that
ond half was “something completely different”, and it began less than three minutes in when senior Kitasha Mesmer was in the right spot to score off a shot on goal from Hupp. Nine minutes later it was 3-0 when Hupp took a ball that bounced high off a Piketon player and headed it into the net for her record-breaking 56th career goal, but she was not nearly finished. Three minutes later, Hupp found the net again, as the ball went from fullback Mary Sonner back to Shipley, ahead to Taylor Hesler, further upfield to Abby Shupert, who sent it to Hupp, who juked two defenders for a shot that was stopped by the Piketon goalie, but Hupp was right there to score on the rebound to make it 40. With 22:22 left to play, Hupp finished off her hat trick with an unassisted goal from about 20 yards away and then the final goal of the game was the first of the season for Cloie Vance, who tapped home a nice centering pass from Kaitlyn Shreffler to account for the 6-0 final and another sectional title for the Lady Devils., who now stand at 12-2-3. “I can get used to these

That run just stirred up the fire in the Lady Cats and they reeled off five straight to go up 23-15, before the Lady Hounds fought back on the serves of Macy Huron to make it 24-20, but when a Manchester return was long on the next volley, the Lady Cats had taken a two sets to one lead in the match. Now with their backs against the wall and facing the end of their season, the Lady Hounds got off to a very rough start in the fourth set and never recovered. Again it was Jones for Whiteoak dominating at the service line as she
scored six in a row to give her team an 11-2 lead and they never looked back. Leading later 19-6, Whiteoak freshman Bayley Carey rattled off three consecutive aces to put her team of the verge of victory. Three service points from Campbell kept the lady Hounds alive, but the final two points of the set went to the Lady Cats and the 25-10 win gave them the match three sets to one and moved them on to the Division IV sectional championship game. The Lady Hounds' loss saw their season end at 614, the first season for Compton as head coach. It also was the final match of the careers for seniors Cassie Campbell and Hannah Grimes. “The first year as head coach was challenging, but so rewarding,” said Compton. “I was blessed with an amazing group of young women-especially our two seniors. We clearly had a bumpy ride throughout the year, but their commitment to each other and the sport made it all worth it. I think we laid the groundwork for better seasons to come.” “Our two seniors led the team in every practice and every match. They both gave everything they had to our team and I know the rest of the girls appreciated it.”

Monday, Oct. 17 turned out to be a historic day for the West Union girls soccer program, one that the members of this year's squad will not soon forget. Winning three games in a season may not be impressive to some, but the 2016 Lady Dragons have set a record for wins in a season and even better, on Monday they did something no other team before them had done-win a sectional tournament game. West Union was a number eight seed on the bracket and was matched up to host number nine seed Northwest, a team whose only win this season came in a 6-1 triumph over the Lady Dragons, but this time was going to be quite the opposite. “My pregame talk with the girls on Monday was a little different,” said West Union head coach Kevin Hunter. “We reflected on our season and the memoMark Carpenter | People’s Defender ries we had made, the obstacles we were faced North Adams’ Jessica Woodall, left, chases the ball with, and the challenges upfield with an intense Piketon defender on her heels in action from Tuesday’s Div.

I explained to them that they were tied for the best record in school history and a win here would put them in the record books.” As they have been in every game, the Lady Dragons were outnumbered roster-wise, but that obstacle was one they were used to. “We were able to shut down their offensive threats and play from the heart the entire game,” said Hunter. “Every girl contributed and gave it her all, the most any coach could ask for. At times I got so lost in the game that I didn't even look at the scoreboard.” If Hunter had glanced at the scoreboard in the first half, he would have seen his team take a 1-0 lead on a goal by sophomore Emilee Davis, which

Louisville Expectations were high at Louisville, but very few believed the Cardinals would be in position to win the ACC and be in the hunt for a berth in the College Football Playoff. Louisville is 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C;1, with its only blemish by six points against undefeated Clemson.

Peebles senior Jessica Johnson goes up for a play at the net during the Lady Indians’ sectional tournament loss to Lucasville Valley on Oct. 18. BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER
The 2016 season came to an abrupt finish on Oct, 18 for the Peebles Lady Indians varsity volleyball squad as they squared off on their home court with the Lucasville Valley Lady Indians in Division III sectional tournament action. The two teams had met way back on Aug. 24, where Valley had taken the match in three sets and unfortunately for the Peebles girls and their fans, the tournament match on Tuesday night had the exact same result. In nearly every sporting event, there is a point in the game or match where the momentum shifts and that was definitely the case in Tuesday night's sectional volleyball match. The turning point came late in the first set when Peebles was two points away from winning it and then gave it away, allowing Valley to come from behind and take that set and eventually the match with it. The first set was a tight one most of the way, with
neither side gaining more than a one or two point advantage until Peebles' Brittany Lloyd fired off three service points, aided by a Madison Pierce kill, to give the home team a 20-16 lead. A nice block by Tatum Arey helped push the Peebles lead up to 2319 and the home side looked on the verge of a win, but Valley had other ideas. A series of service points by Valley's Leah Shepherd quickly gave her team a 24-23 lead before a Josey Myers kill tied the score. After a side out went to Valley, another Myers kill tied it at 25 but a kill by Valley's Marissa Markins led to the visitors grabbing the final two points and taking the first set 27-25. That first set collapse seemed to take some of the wind out of the Peebles sails as Valley raced out to an 8-4 second set advantage. Back came the home team with three Arey serves and another Pierce kill tying the score at 9, but Valley later sent Faith Brown to the service line and seven straight serves
one-goal lead, the Lady Dragons played a solid second half, according to Coach Hunter, winning nearly all of the 50/50 balls and keeping the Lady Mohawks off the scoreboard. “When I looked at the clock and saw two minutes left, everything seemed to slow down and I am yelling at the girls to relax but it was like they never heard me,” added Hunter. “They kept playing like they were the ones losing and then the whistle
blew and the win set in. The next 20 minutes were hugs and tears, laughter and joy, followed by prayers and a lot of pictures.” The 1-0 win for the Lady Dragons was one for the record books and earned them a spot in a sectional title game, no small task for the usually outnumbered squad, but on one Monday night in October, a group of hustling young ladies made memories that they won't soon forget.
Indians fall in sectional opener
combined with numerous unforced errors by Peebles gave the guests a 21-12 lead and they went on to take the second set 25-18. Down two sets to none, the Peebles girls got off to a rocky start in the third set, falling behind 10-4 and forcing coach Katrina Obenshain to use a timeout. An Arey kill and a service ace from Hope Brown narrowed the margin for Peebles but that was as close as they would get. Leading 12-9, Valley sent Kaity Howard back to serve and she reeled off seven straight to put the home team on the verge of elimination. Three more service points from Destiny Gardner and an ace from Bailee Day closed the deal as the visiting Lady Indians moved on in the sectional tourney, taking the third and final set 25-12. With the defeat, the Lady Indian said goodbye to three graduating seniors, Photo by Tina Gordley all of whom were crucial to any success that Peebles It was the final game of the high school soccer career for Peebles’ Logan had this season- Brittany Gordley (16) as the Indians were eliminated from the postseason on Oct. 15, Lloyd, Jessica Johnson, and Sara McFarland. blanked by the Eastern Brown Warriors 3-0.

Photo Of the Week
Where does your courage come from? A couple of weeks ago, I took my two oldest daughters and some neighbor friends on a day trip to visit my alma mater, Morehead State University. It’s beautiful this time of year. We walked around campus and showed the girls where all of the buildings are, and I couldn’t believe how much it has grown and changed since I graduated. I was secretly hoping they would fall in love with it and want to go there too. But aside from the awesome academic programs, another jewel to that area is Daniel Boone National Forest. I try to get back at least once a year just to walk around Cave Run Lake and climb Lockegee Rock, so this day was no exception. My girls had been up the rock before, but they were much younger and I pretty much carried them back then. (Not really sure how!) However, it was a first for the other three girls, and my gal pal Jennifer was a little apprehensive. But her son Austin goes to Morehead State, so he met up with us to make the climb, and I am so glad he did. As Jennifer and I stood at the bottom of the rock taking pictures of the teenagers making the climb ahead of us, she was telling me that she didn’t think she could make it. I told her not to worry if she didn’t want to do it. It’s scary. It’s really steep. I didn’t want her to chance getting hurt if she was unsure. None of the kids would be upset with her for sitting it out. But Austin was having none of that. He knew she was scared, but he also knew that her fear was a bigger obstacle than the rock. He had already climbed up once to help the other girls, and when he came back down to help us, Jennifer told him that she wasn’t going to go. He said, ‘No, Mom. You’re going to do this. I’ll help you.” He squashed every rebuttal she came up with and encouraged her every step of the way. He believed in her until she believed in herself. As I watched them from the
Denae Jones Contributing Columnist
bottom of the rock, I could hear him cheering his Mom on. You’ve got this. You can do it. Keep going. You’re going to be okay. You’re doing great. Don’t quit now. You’re almost there. She trusted him, and he guided her up the rock, showing her where to place each foot and what to grab onto in order to make the climb safely and steadily. She did it afraid, and what an awesome feeling when they got to the top and conquered that fear together! The view is even more breathtaking when you’ve worked so hard to see it. We all have fears that we face. It does not discriminate. It marches its unwelcome self into all of our lives and looks for a place to set up camp. Some fears are small and mostly in our own heads, but some are so very real and overpowering and validated and seem out of our control. It will inevitably happen to all of us. But how we handle it is what makes the difference. We can let it control us or we can square up with it and meet it head on. I can tell you right now, that I know it’s way easier to say than it is to do. Fear and courage seem to be on opposite sides of the spectrum at first, but I believe they really work hand in hand. I believe that fear can actually give you courage. If you’ve never been fearful, then what would you have to be courageous about? Fear ignites courage. Courage helps us overcome our fears. So the trick to confronting a fear head on is to find the source of your courage.
Where does your courage come from? I believe it can come from experience, from our encouragers, and from God. I’ve found that I have to be intentional in how I handle my fear. When I try to handle it on my own, my mind seems to build it up bigger than it actually is, and my body gives in to physical and emotional anxiety. I’ve even been known to pass out because I get myself so worried and worked up over something. But when I name the fear (and sometimes I have to dig deep to get to the real cause of anxiety) I can make a plan. What are the obstacles? Is there a way around it, or do I have to plow right through? Who can I confide in to help me handle this fear? What’s plan B if plan A doesn’t work out? Then I just have to have faith. I am very fortunate that I have a lot of family and good friends who are always faithful supporters, encouragers, and prayer warriors for me. They are my cheerleaders and my touchstones, and always remind me that even if my fear is bigger than me, it’s not bigger than God. He is my rock. I trust Him, and he guides me, showing me where to place each foot and what to grab onto in order to know I can meet this challenge safely and steadily. “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go. – Joshua 1:9” That doesn’t mean it’s not going to be scary. It simply means we know we are not going through it alone, and we can square up, even if we have to do it afraid. The good thing is that once we have gotten through something that is really scary, it’s not so scary anymore. We know what we are capable of. We have wisdom of how to handle it if it should happen again. We become the encourager for others who will go through the same thing. We were there. We defeated it. We overcame. It feels good.

After the warm temperatures in the early week, fall seems to be arriving in Adams County and this display in the front yard of photographer Chris Fogle mirrors many that can be found in the area celebrating the season.
First full GE9X engine hits the mark in ground testing PRESS RELEASE GE Aviation completed the initial ground testing of the first full GE9X development engine, the world's largest commercial aircraft engine that will power Boeing's 777X aircraft, with impressive results. "This engine is living up to our expectations, and we are extremely pleased with the results," said Ted Ingling, general manager of the GE9X program at GE Aviation. "During ground testing at GE Aviation's Peebles Testing Operation, the first GE9X engine performed flawlessly, providing the Engineering team with 1,200 individual data streams that reaffirmed the design. We look forward to the next phase of testing for the engine program." The first GE9X engine accumulated 167 hours, 213 cycles and 89 starts during ground testing. The recent testing provided data on the engine's aero and thermal characteris-
tics, mechanical integrity, performance and operability. Later this year, GE Aviation will conduct preliminary ice testing on the first engine to test (FETT) to get a sneak peek at how the engine will perform. The FETT is a culmination of maturation testing on the GE9X technologies, which started five years ago. The GE9X FETT testing, which began in late March, occurred much earlier in the engine development process and a mere six months after the engine design was finalized. This timing enables all FETT learnings to be captured in the certification engines. A second round of testing is underway on a GEnx demonstrator engine with GE9X CMC (ceramic matrix composite) components in the combustor and turbine. With one-third the density of metal alloys and greater thermal capabilities, lightweight CMC components reduce an engine's overall weight for improved fuel efficiency,
engine performance and durability. Certification testing on the GE9X program will begin in the first half of next year along with flight testing on GE Aviation's flying test bed. Engine certification is expected in 2018. With almost 700 GE9X engines on order, the GE9X engine will be in the 100,000 pound thrust class and will have the largest front fan at 134 inches in diameter with a composite fan case and 16 fourth generation carbon fiber composite fan blades. Other key features include; a next-generation 27:1 pressure-ratio 11stage high-pressure compressor; a third-generation TAPS III combustor for high efficiency and low emissions; and CMC material in the combustor and turbine. IHI Corporation, Safran Aircraft Engines, Safran Aero Boosters and MTU Aero Engines AG are participants in the GE9X engine program.
there will be no early or after hours dumping allowed. A proof of residence may be requested and the Township will not be responsible for accidents and will retain all scrap metal. The dumpster will be located at the Maintenance Building at 10616 State Rte. 125, east of West Union.

Burning bush is a handsome and rugged plant that will grow in bad soils and tolerate drought. It is deer resistant. Left un-sheared, burning bush develop a graceful horizo ntal branching habit that looks like a miniature version of a stately shade tree. Many varieties of burning bush will grow over ten feet tall and wide if not sheared. The most popular burning bush is “compacta” or “compactus”, a “dwarf” form that eventually grows to eight feet tall and wide. Most homeowners routinely shear burning bush to sizes ranging for three to five feet, destroying its natural shape and ca using the center to die out. Repeated shearing encourages dense branching around the outside of the bush, which deprives the inner branches of sunlight and kills them. There are actually only

If you decide to plant one, make sure you space it far enough from walls or pavement that it can grow to full size without constant shearing.
