I REMEMBER TRENTON

Celebrating As A Child

Sharing Christmas Memories Editor’s Note: Persons who have a memory to share about any topic related to Trenton and the surrounding area are asked to do so by e-mailing the Republican-Times newspaper at rtimes@lyn.net. Stories should include the writer’s name, address and telephone number. Stories are to be submitted by e-mail and will appear periodically in the newspaper.

by Allene Maloney It was Christmas 1940. I was 13 and in the eighth grade. In our little country school. Christmas was a big event with an evening program of singing, reciting, Christmas poems, one act plays (the rhythm band made more noise than music) and a gift exchange.

When Santa arrived, he could hardly get through the door with his huge, bulging bag. Although the salary of our teacher, Mrs. Liebhart, was low, she always had a gift for each student plus a bag of Christmas treats.

In mid-December, my two older brothers and our dad, who drove their bus to Galt High School, contracted the measles.

One by one, we all became ill except mother. She had the measles during her childhood. Even though eight months pregnant (Mary Jane was born on Jan. 12), she somehow managed to keep a fire going in two woodburning stoves, kept the rooms dark by covering the windows, put cool, wet cloths on the foreheads of those with a fever and cooked three meals each day for those with even the smallest appetite. However, no one was too sick to eat the delicious ice cream she made with fresh, thick cream and the endless supply of fresh, fluffy snow.

I was aware our Christmas gifts had been ordered from a mail order catalog

I Remember Trenton A Glimpse of Our Past

when I heard mother whisper to dad she had a confirmation that the little “psst...psst...” ordered for me was out of stock and they were substituting a similar one. Well, to me “little” meant insignificant and meager, so no matter what their secretive “psst...psst...” was, I wasn’t exactly excited about it.

To add to our dismalness, we had four or five days of wind and drifting snow and the snow plow didn’t come to clear our dirt road. Obviously, if the roads weren’t cleared, mother’s order couldn’t come through. But I was more worried about missing the Christmas program at the Sinai School and the Christmas Eve service at Black Oak Baptist Church, where we would also receive a bag of candy.

During the Depression, these were a big part of our Christmas.

Two days before Christmas, the sun came out, the wind calmed down and the township snow plow cleared one lane of our road. That same evening, Mrs. Liebhart drove out and brought gifts to our door. The following morning, or the day before Christmas, the mail carrier left a huge box on top of our mailbox. Mother waded through the deep snow and dragged the box inside but wouldn’t open it until later that evening.

Then we all gathered around and Mother first handed out the gifts of necessities: long underwear, socks or stockings, gloves or mittens and stocking caps. Next

there were wallets for Edwin, age 18 and Paul, 15; dolls for Barbara, 11 and Virginia, 9; a toy truck or car for Charles, 6; and a smaller version for James, who was one month away from his third birthday.

Last, she handed me a little box. In it was a beautiful gold locket on a chain.

Today, 78 years later, I still have that locket. The chain is long gone, but I still have the locket and the memories of that Christmas. ********** told by Linda Lou Minich and written by her nephew, Rick Neff The early and mid 1930s were generally a difficult time: droughts, record heat, the Dust Bowl and, after the market crash of 1929, the Great Depression.

No one had much money. It was a time when people could not afford to waste anything. So when good things happened, they were really appreciated.

I was six years old and the night before Christmas in 1933 was especially exciting because my parents, Fay and Maud, my siblings, Walter, Mary, Barbara and Francis and I were all going to Lindley to celebrate Christmas Day at the home of Aunt Flory and Uncle Ted. We set big rocks on the stove that evening to heat them up for the trip the next day.

The next morning we were up early to prepare for the trip. Everything was covSee Christmas, Page 4

SPORTS NCAA BASKETBALL

William Jewell Cardinals

Tolson Signs On With Jewell Trenton’s Ainsley Tolson had a number of options. She could play basketball beyond high school if she wanted. She could play softball beyond high school if she wanted. With a number of opportunities in front of her, however, Tolson ultimately settled on playing basketball at William Jewell College in Liberty.

The Trenton standout made it official on Monday morning, signing a national letter of intent to join the Cardinal program at a ceremony in the Trenton High School commons, surrounded by friends and family.

The decision to choose Jewell came easy for Tolson after traveling to Liberty and meeting the current players and coach. Head Coach Jill Slominski’s demeanor was the crucial selling point for Tolson. “I got a chance to meet the girls and the coach (at William Jewell) and

the college was super pretty,� Tolson said. “All of the girls were really nice and the coach is really relaxed. Personally, I think I play better for a coach who is relaxed, so it was really kind of a seller for me.�

In Tolson, Jewell gets a player who stands 16 points shy of eclipsing Rebekah Capeder’s school record of 1,390 career points. She has been a first-team all-state selection in each of the past two seasons and has been instrumental in helping Trenton capture back-to-back Grand River Conference titles and a trip to the Show-Me Showdown in 2016. “I believe Ainsley will be a great addition to William Jewell’s basketball program,� Trenton Head Coach Brian Upton said. “They are getting a highly skilled player that has an unbelieveable work ethic and a real desire to be the best that she can be. The

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL

real beauty of Ainsley is that she makes those around her better. She is a great encourager and is truly happy and inspired when those around her succeed.�

A dominating season in the pitcher’s circle on the softball diamond brought more offers and nearly swayed Tolson, but when basketball season started up, she knew that was the sport for her. “I guess I’ve just always loved basketball,� Tolson said. “It’s always been my favorite sport, but making the run to state in softball definitely gave me a little controversy on which one I wanted to do. Once I started playing basketball again, though, I thought ‘yeah, I don’t think I can not be in a jersey’.�

Tolson will enroll at William Jewell in the fall of 2019 and join the Cardinals for the 2019-2020 season.

THESE DOGS’ NIGHT Trenton Sweeps South Harrison In GRC Battle

Friday night in Trenton it was a battle of Bulldogs as the Black and Gold played host to South Harrison. This night belonged to the home Bulldogs as Trenton swept the Grand River Conference doubleheader, taking the girls contest 71-20 and the boys game 5346.

TRENTON GIRLS The Trenton girls continued to outright hammer their conference competition. Trenton opened the game on a 16-0 run and would lead South Harrison 22-4 after the initial frame. A buzzer-beating layup at the end of the first half didn’t do much for South Harrison as it only closed the gap to 41-12.

In the third quarter, Ainsley Tolson scored on a layup with 4:52 left in the frame. The inconspicuous layup, however, pushed Trenton’s five senior players to a combined 3,000 career points. “I don’t think that happens a lot and we don’t really think about it,� senior Salem Croy said. “We’ve all been best friends since we were little, so I think when we get out there we just play so well together because we have been out there together for so long. I had no idea that it was our 3,000th point, but that’s awesome. It’s kind of shocking because you never think you will get there, but I guess we hit it.�

Trenton had no trouble closing out the win on this night and the game finished with the five seniors seated next to one another on the bench watching the younger players tie a bow on the victory. “Obviously those girls have been a huge part of (the program),� Trenton Head Coach

At right, Dylan Harris puts up a layup in trafďŹ c during the Trenton High School boys basketball team’s 53-46 win over South Harrison. Harris led Trenton with 28 points.

Brian Upton said. “A couple of them started during their freshman year and a couple of them moved up as the season went along. They really came on the scene during their sophomore year and they made a lot of things happen that year. It’s carried over and that’s a pretty incredible stat. That’s a lot of points for one class. It’s special and it’s going to be a lot different when that class graduates.�

Tolson led Trenton with 24 points, eight assists and five steals. Maci Moore had 10 points and three steals and McKayla Blackburn added 10 points as well. Croy followed with eight points and four steals, Lexi Whitaker had seven points and four steals, Mykah Hurley had six points and five steals, Chandler Lynch had four points and four steals and Sidney Lynch had two points and eight rebounds.

With the victory, Trenton improved to 8-0 overall and 20 within GRC play.

TRENTON BOYS When Trenton took the court for the boys game it didn’t look promising for the home Bulldogs. Jaren Whitney and Max McNabb, both starters and key players for Trenton, made their way across the floor to the bench on crutches.

For Whitney, it was the third-straight game missed due to an ankle injury suffered in Marceline. McNabb, meanwhile, was missing his first game after an ankle injury of his own suffered in practice earlier in the week.

Despite being down the two starters, Trenton responded with a gritty effort, taking a 1915 lead in the opening frame and holding off South Harrison through three tense quarters to get the win. Dylan Harris stepped up big in McNabb and Whitney’s absence, leading Trenton with 28 points. “It was a huge loss having these guys sitting out,� Trenton Head Coach Jeremy Austin said. “We will just be elated when they finally have a chance to come back out and

play for us. But, in the short run, I thought we had a lot of guys step up and play bigger games. Leading that charge was Dylan. He played a great game and had he not got into foul trouble there in the first half, who knows what those numbers could have been. He played very under control, passed the ball well and shot the ball incredibly well. He played as well as I have seen him play for a full game.�

Behind Harris, Trenton go 10 points, five rebounds, three assists and three steals from  Dalton Burchett. Isaac Harris added four points, six rebounds and seven assists and Chase Otto had four points as well. Carson Radcliff had three points and Carson Burchett and Royce Jackson each scored two points with Burchett adding two blocked shots.

With the win, the Trenton boys improved to 4-4 overall and 1-1 in GRC play. Both Trenton teams will be home again tonight (Tuesday) playing host to Gallatin in another Grand River Conference doubleheader. Action tips off at 6 p.m. with the girls game and the boys will follow.

HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLING Trenton Bulldogs 51, Plattsburg Tigers 24 Marceline Tigers 35, Trenton Bulldogs 27 Trenton Bulldogs 36, Lathrop Mules 24

Wrestlers Bounce Back On Road In Marceline On Thursday night in Marceline, the Trenton High School wrestling team stepped on the mat and looked much improved from a disappointing showing in Gallatin a week earlier. Trenton scored a 51-24 win over Plattsburg, a 36-24 win over Lathrop and took the host and third-ranked Class 1 team in the state Marceline Tigers to the limit in a 35-27 loss. vs. PLATTSBURG After a double forfeit at 120, Trenton and Plattsburg traded wins by forfeit with Brice Gibler getting six points at 126 and Trenton being open at 132. Actual matches began at 138, where Trenton’s Dakota Wendt was pinned, but a win by fall by Kaden Owen at 145 again tied the dual.

The back-and-forth action continued as Tyler Siemer got a win by forfeit for Trenton at 152, but the Bulldogs gave those points back with an open weight at 160.

Tied yet again, Trenton finally took over as the dual reached Trenton’s strongest weights. Noah Lewis pinned his opponent at 170 and Caleb Johnson won by a 5-3 decision to push the Bulldog lead to nine points, the largest margin for either team all night. Mark Trump and Jadan Whitney both moved up in the lineup to 195 and 220 pounds respectively - and both netted six points as Trump won by fall and Whitney won after his opponent was injured and ran out of injury time, resulting in a forfeit. Jarvis Collis won by fall at 285 and, after a double forfeit at 106, Trenton scored the final six points of the night as Thomas Lovell won by forfeit at 113. vs. MARCELINE The host Marceline Tigers entered the night with eight state-ranked wrestlers in its lineup. That didn’t deter the Bulldogs, however. After a double forfeit at 106 to start the dual, Trenton’s Lovell scored his first career win with a 9-7 decision victory and did so by defeating Jace Bixenman, the fifth-ranked wrestler in the state at 113 pounds.

Trenton was open at 120 and 126 as Marceline jumped in front in the dual score, but Gibler followed the open weights with a win by fall at 132. Wendt lost by a 16-1 technical fall at 138, falling to Colton Nelson, ranked sixth in the state at that weight.

Owen (145) lost by a 6-0 decision and Siemer (152) was pinned by Clayton Stallo, who is ranked first in the state at 152.

Trenton was open at 160, dropping six points, but Lewis

got those points back with a win by fall at 170.

Trump would be pinned at 182 by Seth Cupp, who is ranked fourth in the state at 182, and a double forfeit followed at 195.

Whitney, Trenton’s lone ranked wrestler (second in the state at 195), moved up again to get a match and pinned Marceline’s Dalton Stark. Collis picked up a win by forfeit at 285 to pull Trenton to within eight points of the Tigers, but that was the final match of the dual. vs. LATHROP The final dual of the night began at 132, where Gibler was pinned by Lathrop’s Andrew Beane, who is ranked third in the state at 138. With Beane dropping down to 132, however, Wendt was able to pick up a win by forfeit at 138 to tie the dual. The Mules were open at 145, 152 and 160 as well as Trenton picked up 12 more points on wins by forfeit from Owen (145) and Siemer (152).

When action returned to the mat, however, Lewis was pinned at 170 by Dorian Walters - ranked seventh in the state at the weight - and Caleb Johnson lost by fall at 182.

Trump scored a win by forfeit at 195 and Whitney moved up to 220 yet again, picking up his third win of the night, this one by another fall. Collis was pinned at 285 and, after a double forfeit at 106, Lovell won by forfeit at 113. Both schools were open at 120 and 126 to close the dual. “Tonight was a better night after the performance we had last week,� Trenton Head Coach Charlie Bacon said. “We went 2-1 and were one match away from coming out on top against Marceline. “Thomas Lovell beat a kid from Marceline who was ranked at 113, which was really nice to see. Jadan Whitney went undefeated on the night.

Several of our guys stepped it up tonight and we wrestled as a team.�

With the 2-1 showing, Trenton moved to 4-4 overall on the season.

TRENTON GIRLS While the boys team had a successful night at Marceline, the Bulldogs’ two girl wrestlers had some trouble.

Both Teresa Yoder (131) and Ann Airey (152) finished the night 0-2.

UP NEXT Trenton’s wrestlers are back in action on Thursday, Jan. 3 traveling to Carrollton for action. It will be a triangular event, which also includes Maysville. Action begins at 5:30 p.m.

WEEK 116 WEEK Gamesof of Dec. Sept. 23 8 - 11 Games - 24

1. Object of the game is to amass as many of the 136 weekly points as you can. Simply review the week’s schedule of games, listed on entry form, and decide which game you are SUREST of picking a winner in. Write the name of your projected winner on the 16-point line, and so on down to the 1point line, which game you figure to be a tossup. Next, fill in Tiebreaker 1, the total points scored by both teams in the week’s designated game. If this step fails to produce a winner, the judges will apply Tiebreaker 2, total offensive yardage from scrimmage in this game. If a winner still doesn’t emerge, a drawing will be held among those contestants still tied. Decisions of the judges are final. The contestant from the participating newspapers who tallies the most of the 136 possible points – or who survives any needed Tiebreaker procedure – will win the Grand Prize of either $1,000 or $500 depending on whether he/she has recorded a perfect score, including Tiebreakers.

2. Any entry form that does not contain a legible name, address, etc., will be disqualified.

3. Entries that fail to forecast a winner from each and every game will be disqualified, as will entries that fail to distinguish between the Jets and Giants of New York and other similarsounding team names.

6. Employees of this newspaper and their immediate families are ineligible to participate.

7. Any inquiry about or protest of weekly results must be made by noon on the Friday following the announcement of winners.

ered with a fresh blanket of snow. After breakfast, daddy hitched his team of horses to the wagon with two-foot sideboards all around. The wagon was loaded with loose hay and the heated rocks wrapped in blankets would be put in the middle to help keep us warm on the trip. The whole family was excited about the trip as we loaded in the wagon while the sun peeked over the horizon. The horses were prancing and blowing steam out of their nostrils as they waited for daddy’s gentle cluck to go.

Then we were on our way.

The snow muffled the rhythmic sound of the horse hooves

and the wagon wheels. Every house we passed had smoke rising out of the chimneys. A few people were out doing morning chores, but the usually bustling town square in Galt was empty. It was a oncein-a-lifetime trip through our own winter wonderland. The scenery with snow covering trees, bushes, houses and bridges along the blue sky was stunning. We sang and visited the whole way in anticipation of the day.

The horses briskly trotted up the south hill leaving Galt, then over the railroad trucks.

The team slowed to a walk when we crossed the Lindley Bridge over Medicine Creek, then trotted to Sand Hill, where they again slowed to a

walk. With the cleats on their shoes digging in with each stop, the horses steadily ascended the steep, winding road to the top of the hill and the north edge of Lindley. We waved to our friends along Main Street as we went by.

When we arrived at Aunt Flory’s, we hurried inside to take off our coats and warm up by the heat stove. Mom’s cousin, Hester, her husband, Obe and their son, JR, who lived in Lindley, were already there. The house was full.

Previously, Uncle Ted had gone into the nearby timber and cut a cedar tree, which we decorated with a chain I made by cutting paper into strips, coloring them different colors and then pasting them together.

We then strung popcorn on a string and wound it around the tree. I cut out stars and covered them with material similar to aluminum foil and hung them on the tree.

The women and girls worked diligently preparing Christmas dinner while the men and boys took care of the horses and brought wood in for the stove. It was a classic Christmas dinner, featuring Aunt Flory’s large platter loaded with fried chicken, mashed potatoes, biscuits and gravy and her specially prepared white beans, which were enjoyed by all. Dessert consisted of a vanilla custard pie, blackberry cobbler and Aunt Flory’s freshly-churned butter and Uncle Wiley’s honey on

biscuits.

Bulldog Bark

by Daniel Gott Trenton Middle School Principal

TMS SPOTLIGHT It is an honor to take this time and spotlight Lendy Donoho, Rachael Rongey and Ched Hurley, three great staff members at Trenton Middle School.

Mrs. Donoho is the fifth through seventh grade counselor and is in her third year in the Trenton R-9 School District.

Mrs. Donoho and her husband Jim will be celebrating their 20year anniversary this year. They are the proud parents to nineyear-old twins Hope and Howie.

They live on their family farm north of Meadville. In her free time, she enjoys attending her childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s events, writing, reading and crafting I asked Mrs. Donoho what she likes about working at TMS and she said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love coming to work every day because of the positive atmosphere at Trenton

Mr.

Middle School. We all share the same goal in wanting every student to succeed and this is evident by the way we all work together. I am blessed to be part of a wonderful team.â&#x20AC;?

Mrs. Donoho does an outstanding job as the TMS counselor. She is motivated, caring, and creates a special bond with every student that she has contact with. She teaches students to be self-advocates, problem solvers, and gives them all the tools necessary to become productive citizens and lifelong learners.

Mrs. Rongey is the fifth grade science teacher at Trenton Middle School and has been with the district for five years. Mrs. Rongey and her husband, Joe have three children, Gracyn, Mason and Reed. In her spare time, she enjoys camping and spending time with my family and friends.

When asked what she likes about working at Trenton Middle School she said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love my job because I get to teach an amazing group of kids and work with dedicated professionals who truly care about their students.â&#x20AC;?

Mrs. Rongey does a great job as the fifth grade science teacher. She sets high expectations for her students and cre-

ates an environment that is conducive to learning. Mrs. Rongey understands that classroom management is not about having the right rules but having positive relationships with her students. She creates lessons that are relevant and continually assess students to check for mastery. I know she takes great pride in her job and runs a very efficient and productive classroom.

Ched Hurley is the eighth grade special education teacher and assistant boys basketball coach at Trenton Middle School and is currently in his ninth year of teaching in the district and his fifteenth year overall. Mr. Hurleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wife, Traci teaches seventh grade ELA at TMS and they have three daughters, Scotlin, McKinley, and Mykah. In his spare time, he enjoys hunting, fishing, being outdoors, and watching sports.

When asked what he likes about working at Trenton Middle School he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The district and community are very welcoming, the administration has been great, and the people I work with are great.â&#x20AC;?

I have come to know Mr. Hurley as a very passionate and dependable educator and who takes pride in watching his students succeed. He strives to build positive relationships with students and co-workers, and promotes a positive and educational culture inside and out of his classroom. Mr. Hurley makes hit his personal mission to inspire students to strive for excellence in all areas of their lives.

We are extremely blessed to have Mrs. Donoho, Mrs. Rongey and Mr. Hurley as part of the TMS Family.

When you are shopping, remember to thank those volunteers.

Many of them give their free day from jobs to care for the community. We could not continue without those who come and work. It is work, but we meet such nice people, women & men.

When school is not in session, we even have a few teenagers working and sharing their knowledge. Young and old sometimes wonder, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is that!â&#x20AC;? Thank you for your support by giving your time, big & small bags of items, and most of all, your caring.

May God share your life.

Dear Annie: I got engaged in June 2017. My fiance and I are planning the wedding for next year, in November 2019.

But I'm having some doubts about my fiance. He does not trust me. He keeps accusing me of having another boyfriend. He does not want me to be friends with anyone, male or female. I have a close friend whom he says he hates intensely, and he tells me repeatedly that he does not like the friendship. I asked this friend to be my bridesmaid, and he has a serious problem with that.

When problems arise or he has issues with me, he does not tell me to my face; he goes and tells my cousin every time, and she will tell me. He's also been sending flirty messages to this cousin's friend. I suspect he is having an affair with her. He is not taking an active role in the wedding planning process. He has not given me his guest list; he doesn't want to discuss a budget for the wedding.

Should I go on with the wedding or just cancel and let it be? -- Confused About Life Dear Confused About Life: Cheaters are always

quick to accuse others of cheating. He's most likely paranoid that you have a boyfriend because he has a girlfriend. Even if not, all the other behavior you mentioned is reason enough to call off the wedding. The way he's attempted to isolate you from your friends is deeply troubling and could be a sign of emotional abuse. (You can call The National Domestic Violence Hotline to learn more about this or just to talk to someone about your situation: 800-799-7233.) It's not easy getting out of bad relationships, but it's even harder staying in them. You deserve much better than this.

Dear Annie: Speaking up is hard for me. Mean-spirited people have taught me that my opinions don't matter as much as others'. This is causing problems for me in the workplace. I'm giving 110 percent at my job, but I'm not making my voice heard as much as I should be. Getting past my timidity is even harder in a professional setting, as I often feel overwhelmed by the pressure to perform -- as if there are always eyes on me. How

Cheers... without beers

When America toasts the New Year, they may not be hoisting a beer.

U.S. beer sales have been slowing for several years now, even as sales of spirits and wine rise.

There are several things going on.

Premium and craft beers have become more popular, but people buy fewer of them at a time because they cost more, says Bart Watson, the chief economist for the Brewers Association, a trade group for small and independent brewers.

One midwestern Kroger grocery store is advertising 12 bottles of

Bud Light for $10.99; it costs $5 more for the same number of bottles of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, a craft beer from California. Prices for spirits and wines haven’t grown as quickly, Watson said.

Generational differences are also a factor. People ages 21 to 34 prefer wine and spirits to beer, Watson said. But that tends to move in cycles, so beer could still see a resurgence.

There are some bright spots for beer. Watson expects craft beer sales to grow 3 to 4 percent in 2018. But overall beer sales will fall 1 percent, he said.

can I overcome my learned shyness? I want to be the best employee and co-worker I can be. -- Shy but Striving Dear Shy but Striving: Shyness can inhibit your career growth, so it's good you're striving to overcome it. First, know that feeling that there are always eyes on you is just that -- a feeling. In the workplace as in life in general, most people are too consumed with their own image to pay too close attention to others'. I don't mean that your supervisors won't notice your performance at work; I'm more talking about such things as getting tongue-tied while trying to speak at a meeting. No one other than you is going to be thinking about it that night.

Second, you don't have to take a huge leap. Little hops will do just fine. Start by saying one thing during a smaller meeting. Do this a few times.

The more you do this the more your confidence will snowball, until you feel comfortable speaking up at larger meetings.

It will get easier every time.

If your anxiety is simply too paralyzing, consider seeking counseling. Cognitive behavioral therapy has been shown to be an effective treatment for social anxiety.
