CHS earns third spot in SCORE finals LEADER STAFF REPORT news@covingtonleader.com Three in a row. This is what Covington – once believed to be the worst performing high school in the system – has achieved as it was announced Tuesday the school was once again a finalist for the SCORE prize. "These honors highlight the students and staff of Covington High and provide valid affirmation of their dedication
and hard work," said principal Marcus Heaston, who is, in his own words, "peacock proud" of his school. "We are extremely grateful and humbled to receive these recognitions.” The SCORE prize is a datafocused effort to recognize and reward Tennessee public schools and school districts that are leaders in student learning. “Each of the 2014 SCORE Prize finalists is demonstrating remarkable success in
preparing students for college and careers," SCORE President and CEO Jamie Woodson said. The SCORE prize has been awarded since 2011 and Covington High School's won for the last two years. This year, CHS earned its nomination for improvement in three areas. "Covington has among the highest Algebra I and II growth in the state and has recently seen notable growth in English II," Woodson
NEXT WEEK: How is Covington High School getting it right?
said."Covington has also seen significant growth on ACT performance over the past three years." Other finalists this year include Martin Luther King Jr. High School (Nashville) and Ravenwood High School (Williamson County). In 2012, Tipton County Schools was a finalist in the
school district category. The next stage of the competition is a site visit to document policies and practices. Winners will be announced at an Oct. 27 event in Nashville hosted by SCORE Chairman and former U.S. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist. If selected again, Covington will be awarded $10,000. The school has also recently been recognized as one of U.S. News & World Reports' 2014 Best High Schools.

Baptist Tipton goes live with electronic health record, app ■Largest project ever for Baptist system Baptist OneCare, Baptist Memorial Health Care’s new electronic health record powered by Epic software, went live at three Baptist hospitals on Sept. 1, including Baptist Memorial Hospital-Tipton. Baptist Memorial Hospital-DeSoto in Southaven, Miss., and NEA Baptist Memorial Hospital in Jonesboro, Ark., also went live. Baptist’s four Minor Medical Centers and 60 Baptist Medical Group clinics in Tennessee and Mississippi were the first to go live on Jan. 1 and 2. Since then, Baptist’s metro area hospitals, including Baptist Memorial HospitalMemphis and Baptist Memorial Hospital for Women, and a number of Baptist Medical Group clinics are live on Baptist OneCare. The new Baptist OneCare system will create a single patient record that both caregivers and patients will be able to access. The EHR aims to maximize efficiency by reducing the need for duplicate tests and patients having to give the same information to multiple caregivers, according to Beverly Jordan, vice president and chief clinical transformation officer at Baptist. Patient privacy is protected the same way it would be with a written record. The biggest convenience for patients is MyChart, a free app accessible via Smartphone or computer that allows patients to schedule appointments, refill prescriptions, direct message their care providers with the option of including photos, access lab results and much more. Patients can sign up for MyChart by going to mychart.baptistonecare.org.
I would like to thank all the folks who supported me in my re-election campaign for County Commissioner.
“We are so excited to roll out Baptist OneCare in our hospital,� said Samuel Lynd, administrator and CEO of Baptist Tipton. “Our staff has spent many months preparing to facilitate a smooth transition, and patients will be thrilled with the ease, convenience, and ultimately, enhanced care experience that the EHR allows us to provide.� In July 2012, Baptist signed a contract with Epic, a software vendor based out of Verona, Wis.—paving the way for the 14-hospital system’s transition to a new electronic health record. The project involves all 14 Baptist-affiliated hospitals along with its clinics and financial systems. All 14,000 Baptist employees and 4,000 affiliated physicians will be affected by the project. Baptist chose Epic after conducting a great deal of research and involving colleagues in numerous demonstrations, which more than 2,500 attended. Baptist took colleagues’ feedback into deep consideration before making a decision, according to Baptist leadership. Baptist colleagues played a role in branding the Epicpowered software as Baptist OneCare. With approximately 270 customers, Epic serves more than 51 percent of the U.S. population and approximately two percent of the world’s population. Epic is known for making software geared toward use by mid-size and large hospital systems. Built in 1964, Baptist Memorial Hospital-Tipton is an award-winning 100-bed hospital which joined the Baptist Memorial Health Care system in 1981. The hospital offers general and surgical services, as well as a variety of physician specialties, a sleep disorders lab, and a surgery center with four operating rooms and two surgery procedure rooms.
Change is coming. And it’s good news for patients.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR VOTE!
JEFF MASON Paid for by Jeff Mason.
Baptist is rolling out a new electronic health record system called Baptist OneCareŠ at all our hospitals, clinics and physician offices.

EDUCATION
Clark joins board; Combs, Bennett join central office staff For the 2014 school year, the Tipton County School Board has a new member and two new hires at the central office. Newly sworn-in school board member Steve Clark represents District 2, filling the seat vacated by Chris Fisher. Clark, the son of Covington High School’s assistant principal, Ellen Shankle Clark, is a former teacher and president of Southern Lawn and Pest, Inc. in Atoka. Clark, a write-in candidate, was sworn in Sept. 2. “I am very excited about the opportunity to represent district 2 on the Tipton County School Board,” said Clark. “I feel like my experience in the classroom will help provide a unique perspective for the other board members. My goal is to ensure that every decision we make is in the best
interest of our students.” All other board members ran unopposed. Central office The central office at the Board of Education has two new hires, Leigh Ann Combs and Leisa Bennett. Combs’s position as payroll clerk for the central office began Aug. 1. Formerly the bookkeeper at Munford Elementary School, she is no relation to director of instruction for Tipton County Schools’ Dr. John Combs. “I enjoyed working at Munford Elementary and am excited to continue a career with Tipton County Schools,” said Combs. Bennett joined the central office on June 1 as the Teacher Incentive Fund coordinator. Previously, Bennett was principal of Austin Peay Elementary.
Nominate unsung heroes for recognition By ECHO DAY eday@covingtonleader.com It's easy for the editorial staff at The Leader to write stories about the good deeds of folks they see frequently – elected officials, public safety personnel, business owners – but there are plenty of stories still left untold. That's where you come in. Help us tell the sto-
ries, and recognize, the county's unsung heroes. We're not looking for the politician who had your driveway repaired or the utility clerk who regularly calls to remind you to pay your bills; we're looking for stories like that of Clay Max, a Covington senior featured in our Football Preview magazine who goes out of his way to do a phenomenal job as the football team's manager.
We're talking about folks like Mario Hayslett and Brandon Armstrong, two men who organized an event that benefitted the city's basketball court. You know the types of folks we want to feature. We plan this as a monthly series and welcome your nominations. To send in a suggestion, email news@ covingtonleader.com or call 901-476-7116.

FLASHBACK
Festivals galore this month
It’s now September, the beginning of so many good things in Tipton County. As this month begins, it’s still so warm out, but I think we all can smell fall in the air. This weekend, Brighton will celebrate Founder’s Day, then the Hunter Stafford Wildlife Supper is Saturday, Sept. 13, followed by Celebrate Munford on the 20th and Covington’s Heritage Day on the 27th. Imagine: fried turkey legs, fried Twinkies, corn dogs, funnel cakes….music by local and regional bands…5K races and walks benefitting various organizations…lots SOUTHERN FRANCE and lots of vendors, including FRANCE GASQUET seeing some of us at different events…. Also this month, it’s already time to start decorating scarecrows for the Covington square. Before you know it, October will be here, with high school homecomings and homecoming parades. Mix in some Tennessee football, hot apple cider and perhaps a bonfire or two to roast marshmallows and you have Tipton County in the Fallwhat wonderful memories are made of.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Thanks to pancake benefactor On Saturday, Aug. 9, a group of 25 kids and 15 staff members ran in the Celebrate Munford 5K. The race was put on by D.J. Watson, who was very nice to let our kids and staff run at a reduced rate. The race was well done and our kids enjoyed it very much and we had three kids that won awards. After the race, the Boy Scouts were having a pancake breakfast, but because of cost issues we were not going to be able to attend. When D.J. heard about this she said, “Let me see what I can do.” She gave me a call a couple of days before the race and said that someone had stepped forward and would pay for the kids and staff to attend the breakfast. Now the kids were really excited about going to the race. So, after the race we all went to the Boy Scouts pancake breakfast and had a great time. For the next few weeks after the race all I heard about was how much they enjoyed eating those pancakes. At the breakfast, I asked D.J. who our benefactor was and she told me that he was sitting at a table right behind me. His name is Rich Ali of Green Meadows Development Corp. We talked for a while and I told him about Youth Villages and our mission. He was very impressed with our kids and what we do at Youth Villages so much that he offered to make this an annual event. I would like to thank Mr. Ali on behalf of Youth Villages and all the kids who ate his pancakes. See you next year. Paul “Spunky” Ireland Runners’ Club Director Youth Villages Bartlett

In addition to starting early with your estate plan, you’ll need to assemble the right team, including your financial advisor, legal professional and tax expert. You might enjoy receiving attention on National Grandparents Day. But you’ll get even greater pleasure out of knowing that you’re maximizing your efforts to leave the type of legacy you want for your grandchildren — while still enjoying the retirement lifestyle you desire.

What is whiplash?
We all have seen the loads of fraudsters pour out of their barelytapped vehicle grabbing their necks acting as if they are in agony, and none of us buy it. As an injury attorney that sees crash victims every day, I also see other types of neck injuries from a crash: real ones. True, the X ray might show no fractures. The Emergency Room might release you back to work. You may not be bleeding or have a broken bone or even a bruise. That does not mean all is well. The next day, when you cannot turn your head and cannot believe you are hurting, you have discovered “whiplash.” Whiplash is the common term for “cervical strain” from cervical “hyper flexion and hyper extension.” It is pretty descriptive though.
David Peel Peel Law Firm
Attached to the end of whip is small string that actually breaks the sound barrier, causing the loud “pop.” Getting hit, from the front or rear, can cause your neck to snap through a similar scenario. We were not built for that when we were created naked in a garden. Our necks are very flexible and our heads
are quite heavy and pull the neck with it. A rear end crash into your vehicle when you are sitting still is the classic case. You are going 0 mph until your car is hit. Lets say the at-fault driver has only slowed to 30 mph when he hits your car. Suddenly, your car goes from 0 to almost 30 mph in a spilt second. When your car moves, so will your seat, and thus your pelvis and torso. But, for just a sliver of time, your head stays still. Thus your neck is pulled backwards as your head remains in place, your torso accelerates forward violently. But for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction: now your head is thrown forward. Biomechanical experts study whiplash injury using live human sub-
jects and even corpses. Whiplash is real and often seems to heal less completely even than other injuries from crashes that have been traditionally viewed as more severe. Be sure not to settle cases “Assuming you’ll get better.” You might not recover as quickly as you hope. You have only one year to sue in Tennessee for a car crash, and the sooner you treat the better chance of recovery you enjoy. Mr. Peel seeks justice for those injured in car accidents, work place incidents, medical malpractice, and nursing homes. He often addresses churches, clubs and groups without charge.

ACT writes a prescription for success Use and Health, more than “4,000 adolescents begin experimenting with prescription drugs every single day and only 4.7 percent of children who abuse medications say they get them from a stranger, drug dealer, or the Internet.â€? The coalition is using visual branding to increase community awareness. Such branding includes: •Stickers are currently being placed on prescription bags, which remind customers to lock down medications. •Posters are being distributed to pharmacies for drive-through window display and to provider’s offices, as well as community distribution. •ACT has requested providers to distribute informational cards to patients for the month of September. •Two ACT billboards in Tipton County, one in the south end and one at the north end.
By FRANCE GASQUET fgasquet@covingtonleader.com The Anti Drug Coalition of Tipton County (ACT) has begun a prescription drug abuse community campaign for September.

Additional ACT education in September regarding prescription drug abuse includes: •A round table discussion between law enforcement, pharmacists and providers regarding best practices and partnering to prevent prescription abuse. •Presentations to senior citizen centers by the coalition. •Partnering with schools and sport booster clubs to help spread the coalition’s message •Information booths at upcoming fall festivals, with giveaways such as prescription drug lock boxes. ACT has a new mascot, Pill Popper, who will provide a visual reminder to lock down medications. For more information or to become a part of the coalition, go to www.drugfreetipton.org.

COMMENTARY
There is a difference By EMILY PEYTON COOK Special to The Leader
Psalm 25:8-10 says “Good and upright is the LORD; Therefore He instructs sinners in the way. He leads the humble in justice, And He teaches the humble His way. All the paths of the LORD are loving-kindness and truth to those who keep His covenant and His testimonies.” What is the difference in someone who trusts in a good, upright, leading, teaching, loving, kind, truthful, faithful God and someone who doesn’t? “Things like affection for others, exuberance about life, [and] serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.” Galatians 5:22 (The Message) If you are a believer who is surrendered to God, you know what I am describing first hand. As you go about your day, you can sense the darkness surrounding those in your midst who are not following
THE COOK FAMILY
God. Whether it is when you turn on the news, when you are at work or school, or when you are out running errands, you know whether someone is living their life as a follower of Jesus based on the evidence pouring out of their life. Jesus said in John 7:38, “Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’” Oswald Chambers comments on this text “hundreds of other lives will be continually refreshed…God squeezes the sweetness out of us.”
Do you have love for others, and excitement about life, peace, loyalty, compassion, and a holiness that comes from God who changed you when you met Him? I do! We have something to share! I think sometimes I get so busy and wrapped up in my day to day life that I forget the blessings I enjoy by being secure in Christ. I forget to remember that God graciously saved me at an early age to be a blessing to another by sharing my faith with those who are lost around me. He is the difference in my life. If you have abundant spiritual blessings like I do, that is a gift from God to share. If you have material blessings like I do, that is a gift from God to share. Whatever we have and whoever we are is by God’s grace for His glory. We bring Him glory by opening our mouths and pouring out living water with those so dehydrated by this world. I want to encourage you today to reflect the character of God by letting His life, His light, His living water flow through you. Remember Jesus is the difference in our lives and theirs. His name is the best thing that will come out of your mouth today.

Cougars rally past Manassas
Munford 2-0 for first time since 2010 By JEFF IRELAND jireland@covingtonleader.com It's been a while since Munford has started a football season 2-0. Four years, to be exact. But that's the Cougars' record now after beating Manassas (1-1) at home Friday night, 23-13. Munford trailed 13-9 at the half before scoring twice in the final two quarters and holding off a later Tiger drive to pick up the nondistrict win. “The defense played really well again this week,” said Munford first-year head coach J.R. Kirby. The Cougars defense did not allow a touchdown last week in a 10-7 win over Covington. “Our offense struggled early again,” Kirby said, “but they found a rhythm in the second half.” Munford's offense picked drove 87 yards on its first possession of the second half. Andre Thomas broke a 25-yard TD run to cap off the drive and give the Cougars a 16-13 lead. Midway through the fourth quarter, Manassas scored on a trick play, but the call was called back on a penalty for throwing an illegal forward pass. Munford finished off the game with another scoring drive that ended with a 28-yard touchdown run by Markeeis James. The game did not start well for the Cougars. Manassas returned the opening kick off for a touchdown and Munford lost a fumble on its ensuing possession. After a Munford safety on a botched punt return made the score 7-2 and another Munford punt, Xavier Throckmorton intercepted a pass in Manassas territory. Moments later, David Simon, who led Munford with 75 yards rushing on 20 carries, scored SEE MUNFORD, PAGE A16

CHS regroups in win over Hillcrest By STEVE HOLT sports@covingtonleader.com Bouncing back from last week’s last-minute loss to Munford, Covington evened its record at 1-1 Friday at the expense of visiting Hillcrest. Covington showed it could take coaching, dramatically reducing penalties from Week 0, drawing only two flags for 25 yards in a 35-0 win. The defense was solid, pitching a shutout along with two turnovers. “We played better at times,” Covington head coach Marty Wheeler said. "It is a day-to-day, play-byplay process with this team. Our youth and inexperience showed in our offensive inconsistency. We
played hard but made too many mistakes. The defense showed up again and played well." The Chargers looked unstoppable on their opening possession. Covington quarterback Malcolm Taylor ran for a pair of first downs to start the drive. Three plays later, Covington faced a fourth and one at the Viking 20. Wheeler’s decision to go for it was rewarded with a pass completion to Kelvin Stowers at the 16. The T. J. Smith, the game’s rushing leader with 75 yards on 18 carries, took it to the one and Taylor put the Chargers on the board on third and goal. Josh Owen, a perfect 5 of 5 for the night, added the PAT for a 7-0 lead. Stowers took 14 seconds to return
the opening kickoff of the second half 84 yards for a 14-0 CHS lead. A Taylor interception and a lost fumble ended two drives in the third period, yet Covington put the game away in the final three minutes. Jackson recorded his second takeaway with a fumble recovery at the Viking 26. Taylor wasted no time, hitting Stowers with a 26-yard scoring strike for a 21-0 lead. Hillcrest fumbled the ensuing kickoff. Covington recovered at the Viking 30 and used the final 2:33 to boost the lead to 28-0 on a K.J. Hines five-yard TD run. Taylor’s 10-yard scoring run midway through the fourth quarter SEE COVINGTON, PAGE A16
Millington defense leads way in win over Brighton Tipton-Rosemark surges in second quarter to get past Tunica Academy By JEFF IRELAND jireland@covingtonleader.com Millington is known for having a prolific rushing attack and a strong defense, and those traits were on full display Friday night against visiting Brighton. The Trojans racked up 259 rushing yards and held Brighton to four first downs in a 20-7 win. Brighton (1-1), however, remained in the game until the very end. A 24-yard field goal by Trojan Luke Bell in the fourth quarter finally gave Millington (2-0) and some breathing room and the Trojans held on from there. Trailing 10-0 in the second quarter, Brighton got back in the game when Austin Kelley hit Breland Austin for an 18-yard touchdown. But Millington's defense held the Cardinals scoreless the rest of the way. A 30-yard TD pass from Eldon Tyms to Kip Fleming in the first quarter gavie Millington a 7-0 lead. Bell kicked a 32yard field goal in the second quarter to
push the lead to 10-0. Keno Taylor, who finished with 117 yards on 20 carries, scored on a threeyard run in the third quarter. Tyms completed 15 of 24 passes for 123 yards and also rushed 12 times for 142 yards. Kelley completed 15 of 25 passes for 132 yards. Terry Wayne White caught eight passes for 92 yards for Brighton and Austin had three catches for 27 yards. Brighton is off this week before hosting Covington on Sept. 12. In another area game: Tipton-Rosemark (2-0) erased an early 6-0 deficit with three touchdowns in the second quarter en route to a 3613 non-district home win over Tunica Academy on Friday. Rosemark quarterback A.J. Hightower, who completed 22 of 33 passes for 191 yards and ran for 78 more, hit Ethan Carpenter on a 29-yard TD pass to give TRA a 7-6 lead. Logan Stewart came up with a 35yard pick-six to push TRA's lead to 14-6 and Hightower scored on a four-yard

Edward Estes led Munford's defense with 11 tackles, six of which were for losses. The Cougars will look to improve to 3-0 tomorrow night at home against Frayser. Munford hosts Millington in the M and M Bowl next Friday. Kirby said he will make sure his players are not looking past Frayser. “We've played two playoff teams from last year and beat them both,” Kirby said. “Frayser is probably not as talented as those teams we've played, but they play hard.”

The Indians, who eliminated CHS in the opening round of the 2013 playoffs, return a veteran team and are coming off a win against the powerful 5A Henry County Patriots.

Tipton County and the Civil War Continued from last week Chickamauga Station-Graysville, Georgia November 26, 1863
Gen. Otho F. Strahlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brigade arrived at Chickamauga Station about 10 oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;clock a.m. His soldiers of the Tipton Rifles, Co. I, 4th and 5th Tennessee infantry, had little time to visit with their friends and neighbors in Capt. James I. Hallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Company C, 6th and 9th Tennessee, Maneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brigade), who were standing in line of battle. Hallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s company had seen little action the day before at Missionary Ridge. It was a different story for the men of Covingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tipton Rifles. Strahlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brigade had conducted a â&#x20AC;&#x153;fighting retreat.â&#x20AC;? With both flanks unsupported, Gen. Strahl ordered his men to retire toward Birdâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mill on South Chickamauga Creek. Gen. A. P. Stewartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s division after-action battle report was highly commendable of the conduct of Strahlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brigade: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Passing Strahl's and Stovall's brigades, they were found hotly engaged and standing firm. Orders were sent along the lines to fire deliberately, to be sparing of ammunition, and if the enemy approached, to use the bayonetâ&#x20AC;Ś â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Florida regiment from the trenches belowâ&#x20AC;Śwere subsequently found by officers of my staff in rear of the point where Strahl's brigade was reformed. [They] came into this interval, were followed by the enemy, gave way, and the
enemy rushed in, taking Gibson and Strahl in reverseâ&#x20AC;Ś â&#x20AC;&#x153;Up to this time the enemy had been handsomely repulsed along the whole line. The regiment [4th and 5th Tennessee] from Strahl's brigade, under Col. [Jonathan J.] Lamb, in the trenches, had done very effective service, and the artillery had been used with skill and effect. The brigade on Gibson's right had already retired; a force had penetrated between Strahl's left and Rivers' battery, and the whole line fell back. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Circumstances threw me with Strahl's brigade, which was reformed without difficulty on the next ridge, some 300 or 400 yards to the rear.â&#x20AC;? A soldier from Henry County in the 5th Tennessee recorded Generalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Stewart and Braggâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts to rally these troops: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gen. Bragg dashed up on his horse and called out: 'Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t run, boys, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t run. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your country; hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your general and hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your flag.' "A fleeing Confederate replied, 'And hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your mule,' as he leaped the bushes in long strides down the incline. "About half way down the slope Gen. A. P. Stewart rode up to Ab Dinwiddie, the color-bearer and said: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Whose colors are these?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; "Dinwiddie promptly replied, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;4th Fourth and 5th Fifth Tennessee.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; "Gen. Stewart said: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Give me your colors.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;
"Dinwiddie replied: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;General, you cannot have my colors but I will plant them where you direct or die in the attempt.' "â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Plant them there beyond that little glade,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Gen. Stewart ordered.'" After the color-bearer promptly obeyed the order, Stewart called out: â&#x20AC;&#x153;4th and 5th regiments, Strahlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brigade, you have never failed me; you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t now. Rally on your colors and protect your army.â&#x20AC;? Lt. Edwin H. Rennolds of the 5th Tennessee recorded: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every man of the regiment who was in hearing and others of various commands rallied on the colors, and less than a hundred poured a hot fire into the rapidly advancing enemy and checked them till the remnants of other regiments could be rallied down near the Chickamauga Creek and a disastrous rout prevented.â&#x20AC;? At the creek, Strahl found a mob of panic stricken stragglers and wagons blocking the bridge. Stewart ordered Strahl to form his brigade in line of battle across the Birdsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mill Road to â&#x20AC;&#x153;protect as much as possible the confused and disorganized mass.â&#x20AC;? After crossing the creek to the opposite side, Strahlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s men took up a defensive position to oppose any Federals attempting to cross, thus buying time for Braggâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s army to escape.

Almyra Libby Click Hi everyone. Labor Day, a day set aside for special recognition of the working man and women in America, as well as Canada. It is the first Monday in September and still remains a legal holiday. Labor Day is May 1 in many countries. For many, it is a day of relaxation. Unfortunately, not for all! The military, law enforcement and fire fighters donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even get their birthdays off. Thank God for them all, everywhere. "Dedication is the heart of America, in most circumstances." Here in Almyra, many men were still working, "on the grill." Speaking of grill, I was in Huntsville, Ala. last week to visit some family and my nephew John Wallace prepared the most delicious meal on the grill. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d never eaten grilled corn on the cob, and the corn and a delicious steak were our meal one evening. That corn on the cob was out of this world, as well as the steak, of course. John is career army in special forces. I stay concerned about him and the state of our nation. Please keep all of our military in your prayers, especially at this disastrous period of time in history. Also while traveling, I viewed NASAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s space exploration facility. It was very interesting. Football was another big holiday event, if one can sit still
that long. I spent a portion of the day discovering many interesting things in an old file cabinet that I had not opened in years. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know where the time goes!

Mt. Carmel Elaine Watkins Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a partly-cloudy Sunday afternoon. We got 1.27 inches of rain during yesterday, last night and early this morning, and the sun is trying to peek out. There are more chances Tuesday and Wednesday, which brings me to this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farm report: the beans are soaking this rain up, along with the cotton, which is starting to open in places. This will do it for corn and some folks have already started shelling. We will give ours another week or so after drying out from the rain. Looks like a good harvest, but I wish prices were better! I have a correction to make and apology to family members who read the column last week. We were without Uncle Charles Watkins and Uncle Gilbert Watkins at our reunion last week, both of whom we lost this year. Uncle Leonard Watkins died several years ago but, of course, we still miss him too, along with all the others Watkins â&#x20AC;&#x153;kidsâ&#x20AC;? born to Edd and Nettie Bell Crump. This weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Minnie the cat report: Minnie, aka â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kits,â&#x20AC;? has had a bad week. She ate a tennis shoe stringone of those long, long ones you get as an extra pair when you buy new tennis shoes. She ate the whole thing. One piece of it turned up (blech!) or I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have known what happened to her. She tore a hole in the thin material on the bottom of my new couch and hid in there for two days. We finally found her and she hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eaten or had anything to drink in three days. I took her to the vet last week and she stayed there three nights and came home doing fine. It feels odd to
pet her, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lost so much weight I can feel her bones, but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starting to eat again. She couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t jump up on anything before she went, or even the day she came home, but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting stronger every day. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m never leaving a pair of shoestrings on the bed again! On the prayer list is Jewell Stephenson, Ivanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother, who broke his hip; Donna Sonwineski, home from the hospital; Carol Nance, Larry Whaley II, Lesa Hall, Steve Parker, H. A. Beasley Sr., Florence Robertson, Robby Rogers, Otis Griffin, everyone taking treatments and all servicemen and women. Tomorrow is September!

Kathy Keiter I hope youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all had a great week! I was about to think we werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to get any hot days this year, but the old man heat has popped up his oleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ugly head again. We have four birthdays here this month, two residents, Mr. Dennis Mashburn and Ms. Joyce Herron. Happy birthday, you two! We hope you have a great day on your special day! Then we have two staff birthdays, Ms. Esther Dowd and Jeff Yarbroâ&#x20AC;Ś happy birthday to you both as well! My sister has a birthday this month as well on the 11th, happy birthday sisâ&#x20AC;ŚI love you! Let me give you a report on last Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worship service at New Generation Church. The church, led by Brother Terry Hilliard, meets in Dunlap Retirement Centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fellowship hall and they have been having a very good turn out from the community. Last Sunday, they grilled hot dogs and hamburgers with all the trimmings. The residents and staff had a great time because they were all invited, too. The church
doors open at 10 every Sunday morning and the service starts at 10:30 a.m. Bro. Terry would love for anyone and everyone to come and join them in worship and praise to the Lord. So, if you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t got a church home, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thinking about starting to church, then consider yourself invited. You may see Bro. Terry at Walmart, or down at Fastimes or the Dollar General, but if you meet him, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gonna invite you to church! He lives right here, two doors down from Dunlap, and he loves to minister to people, all people! Our residents really love him and he loves them and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do anything for them! But this church is a community church, where his community consists of a 50-mile radius, ha, ha! So yâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;all plan on coming and joining them next Sunday, believe me, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be blessed! Just so you know, the Dunlap kidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reunion will be held here on Sept. 27 and 28. It was cancelled it in June due to the death of one of the husbands. Now they are ready to get
together, renew old friendships and celebrate the love they share and shared as a family growing up here at Dunlap Orphanage. Some of you may know some of the kids who were raised here, but have moved away. If you do, please contact them and let them know when the reunion is taking place. For more information, call Denise at 901786-4806. She would love to hear from you! We want to welcome Mr. Max Gibbs back to Dunlap. Mr. Max came out of the hospital and some rehab just to return to us. Ha, ha! Welcome back Mr. Max! We love you and missed you while you were gone! Until next week, you have a blessed day every day of this week and recognize the Lord, your Almighty Creator, and let Him know how much you love Him and all mankind! Do something special for somebody todayâ&#x20AC;Śa hugâ&#x20AC;Śa helloâ&#x20AC;Śand have a great day! Who knows, you might make theirs!
