Clinton County selected to test new broadband A small town in northwestern Missouri is one of seven communities in the nation testing experimental technology that could expand rural access to high-speed internet and the opportunities that can bring.

Missouri University of Science and Technology is leading a team that has been awarded a one-year, $300,000 grant through the technology nonprofit US Ignite’s Project OVERCOME. Through the grant, a wireless network will be deployed in Clinton County. Researchers will use a technology, called RF Over Fiber, in which multiple lowbandwidth radio frequency (RF) devices are digitally stitched to-

Constitution Camp at Dockery this June From June 14-18, girls and boys ages 7-14 may participate in the Constitution Day Camp being offered at Gallatin’s Dockery Park. The camp is from 8:30 a.m. to noon each day.

This will be a fun-filled week visiting the American Revolutionary War period, the culture, the issues, the founders, events and founding documents. Lessons, crafts, games, music and snacks will help increase the children’s understanding of this period of American history.

On Friday night, participants will present a musical for their parents showing what they have learned. This program has been recognized with a national award for community service.

gether to simulate a high-bandwidth device.

The technology can provide high-speed internet access to areas lacking a fiber broadband infrastructure, says Casey Canfield, assistant professor of engineering management and systems engineering at Missouri S&T and lead investigator in the broadband project.

“This a great project for Clinton County and for communities around the country where access to high-speed connectivity is not available due to the cost of that ‘last mile’ of fiber, which would make it prohibitive for the consumer,” said Joe Lear, University of Missouri Extension northwest regional director.

“The project allows us to evaluate an experimental method that may possibly bridge that last mile at a reasonable cost.”

The Project OVERCOME collaboration will test the technology’s potential to reduce costs, expand broadband access to underserved communities and attract public and private investment. Partners include researchers from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts, United Electric Cooperative, Maximize Northwest Missouri and MU Extension.

The partnership grew out of the work of the UM System Broadband Initiative, which convened in 2019 to address the lack of high-speed internet in many parts of Missouri by facilitating collaboration among the system’s four universities and external partners Missouri S&T partnered with MU Extension to find a commu-

Missouri Bicentennial signature events to commemorate ‘Statehood Day’ Missouri Statehood Day, Aug. 10, 2021, marks an important milestone of 200 years since the Missouri Territory became the 24th state to enter the Union.

More than 200 bicentennial events are taking place this year, statewide, with major public events scheduled in August.

Events are being developed with COVID-19 safety measures during the pandemic and inperson activities will adhere to local and state health guidelines at the time of the event. Some events will also be live streamed for Missourians unable to attend in person.

Among the major events planned to commemorate the bicentennial include the Together for 21 Fest organized by the State Historical Society of Missouri and the University of Missouri.

The three-day festival, Aug. 6-8, will be held at the Center for Missouri Studies and the MU campus in Columbia. The event will include live music, folk art demonstrations, children’s programming, talks/lectures, documentary film screenings and bicentennial traveling exhibits.

On Saturday, Aug. 7, 2021, First Missouri State Capitol State Historic Site will host a bicentennial commemoration event for the public in St. Charles.

The historic site is where Missouri’s first legislature met from 1821 to 1826 before the State Capitol was moved to Jefferson City. Tour the historic rooms where statehood began, attend lectures, and walk the stationary parade route. The event is being organized by Missouri State Parks.

Jefferson City will be the location for several days of bicentennial festivities open to the public Sunday, Aug. 8, and Tuesday, Aug.

10, at the State Capitol in Jefferson City. These events include a Gold Star Memorial dedication, the dedication of the Bicentennial Bridge, a Statehood Day ceremony in conjunction with a U.S. Naturalization ceremony and an ice cream social.

The Missouri Bicentennial Commission is planning the State Capitol events, including an invite to communities to celebrate Missouri’s birthday Aug. 10 with an ice cream social. The commission is asking communities to sign up for the statewide ice cream social at missouri2021. org; plan their community celebration and share photos using the hashtag #ScoopsAcrossMissouri.

The Missouri bicentennial is the theme for the Missouri State Fair, Aug. 12-22, in Sedalia. Our Missouri Celebration will include special bicentennial events and exhibits, along with livestock shows and competitive exhibits, entertainment, motor sports and other regular State Fair offerings.

ners in their agriculture enterprise.

Annie’s Project is a discussion-based workshop that provides participants ample time for questions, sharing, reacting and connecting with presenters and fellow participants.

Participants will learn different issues in five agricultural risk areas: production, financial management, human resources, marketing, and legal.

There will also be an opportunity to tour diverse agricultural operations in northwest Missouri and learn about marketing value-added products. It’ll be a fun and dynamic way to learn, grow and meet other women in agriculture.

“Annie’s Project opened my eyes to new things happening in the farming world. I was able to gain a better understanding of financial decisions and the impact they have on the farming operations as well as a vast amount of knowledge on basic ag-related topics,” said Katy Burkhard, Harrison County resident and previous Annie’s Project participant.

“Today I am able to use a lot of the knowledge Annie’s Project gave to me in our day-to-day farming operation. Financial de-

cisions, grain storage and selling, cash rental agreements, crop insurance, as well as the knowledge of the many different types of software and websites that help with the daily decisions.”

Classes begin June 1 and will be delivered as a hybrid course, with three in person sessions, two Zoom sessions, and one inperson farm tour. ► Tuesday, June 1, 5:30 - 8:30 p.m., In-person ► Thursday, June 3, 6-8 p.m., Zoom ► Tuesday, June 8, 5:30-8:30 p.m., In-person ► Thursday, June 10, 6-8 p.m., Zoom ► Saturday, June 12, 9 a.m. - 2 p.m., Tour ► Tuesday, June 15, 5:30-8:30 p.m., In-person

The course will be made available in-person in the following locations: Chillicothe, Higginsville, Marshall, Maryville and St. Joseph. Due to funding from Missouri SBDC and the CARES Act, the class is offered at no cost.

Annie’s Project is designed for farm women, but it is open to anyone interested in coming together with other women to learn from experts in production, financial management, human resources, marketing and the legal field.

Loose ends

This retirement thing is already awkward, and I haven’t even been there to do that yet.

Liz and I expected confusion. The nature of this business doesn’t allow such decisions to be private and we very much prefer to report the news rather than to make any news ourselves. You worry about slamming the doors too early while hoping you’re not hanging on for too long.

One certainty is loose ends. Atop my list is the archive of newspapers, our print editions bound in large books for posterity.

Newspapers make poor antiques; paper crumbles. Ironically, some of the oldest papers actually age better than the decades of newer ones. Virgin wood pulp takes both abuse and sunlight better than recycled paper which contains chemicals. Regardless, when perusing these old papers, evidence of “paper crumbs” are

The library really doesn’t need these large books, not with microfilm in place. The original archive should be kept with the newspaper …except this newspaper’s future is now in doubt.

Perhaps the Daviess County Historical Society should take possession. But, realistically, that means these books will join the stack of books which archive the Pattonsburg Call, doomed to neglect and disuse in an upstairs bedroom at the squirrel cage jail.

Actually, the historical society itself is a bit of a “loose end.” The last organized efforts from this group were in stabilizing the squirrel cage jail in 1993 by a handful of volunteers; the last time the group was actively meeting was in publishing the 1985 Daviess County History Book. The society is long overdue to reorganize in order to go forward.

Much work could be done to update our local history since the 1985 history book. This puts a premium on researching the last four decades of the newspaper archive – not necessarily to publish another book or anything in print but rather, at least in my mind, to produce a digital archive for future use. If done properly, then the digital archive (photos and text articles) should reach back into previous decades as volunteer efforts allow.

We’re uncovering a lot of loose ends while working toward shutting Gallatin Publishing Company down. So, you’ll have to excuse us as some things unravel or if you become confused. We don’t have all the answers. We’ve never done this before. Loose ends are ...well, loose!

Budget awaits executive action

by State Sen. Dan Hegeman

As is said so often, the Missouri General Assembly has one constitutionally mandated job: create a balanced budget each year. This year, like most, presented a unique challenge. Fortunately, it was not the same type of challenge as last year.

The Fiscal Year 2022 state operating budget totals approximately $35 billion, including $14 billion in federal funding. The federal portion includes funds designed to help our state continue to navigate the effects of the pandemic. In addition, there is nearly $600 million in capital improvement funding for our state.

Gas Tax: A couple years ago, a gas tax was on the ballot, which was rejected by voters. This year, a senator has proposed a gas tax increase that the legislature would impose without a vote of the people. It would raise the gas tax 12½ cents per gallon over five years, with a rebate mechanism where citizens could claim the extra gas tax as a credit off of their income tax.

Some say an increase is needed to maintain our roads and bridges. Others say they don’t trust that more taxes will lead to better roads, or that no tax increase should occur without a vote of the people who would be taxed.

Vaccine Passports: Some governments are requiring citizens to get a COVID vaccine before allowing them to travel or enjoy the normal privileges of life. Some corporations are requiring their customers to get vaccinated before they can enter their business or requiring their employees to be vaccinated to keep their jobs. The legislature has debated which, if any, of these restrictions are acceptable, and which go too far and violate individual freedom.

Wayfair: Some members want to collect a sales tax from citizens on internet purchases

cools the buildings throughout campus, after having made repairs to some of this pipework in previous years. North Central Missouri Community College will also get additional funding to build satellite campuses.

From here, the governor will review each line items of the budget bills and determine if there is need to withhold any spending, which means the funding could be released at a later time than originally requested. He also has the option to veto any specific line items in the budget.

The Legislature also has the option to override any veto, if we see fit. Fiscal Year 2022 will start on July 1, 2021.

teacher than meets the eye. It’s a tough job to start with. You have an entire classroom of children, most of whom don’t want to be there, and you must prepare them all to be the leaders of tomorrow. Every kid is different.

No two learn the same.

Now you might think that challenge seems insurmountable, but then you have to take into consideration what else goes into the job. Those “long” summer breaks seem a lot shorter once they fill up with summer school, lesson planning, professional development, and preparing for the new school year.

Those “short” school days start to drag out when you’re up past midnight grading papers.

It isn’t just time and effort that teachers put into the job, it’s their own money too. Many spend hundreds of dollars every year out of their own pocket buying supplies they need for their classrooms.

Pile on top of that all the challenges that have come with this pandemic. Imagine trying to teach math while making sure

middle schoolers wear masks.

Imagine consoling elementary students who lost a parent or grandparent while trying to teach them how to read. Imagine trying to juggle teaching students virtually and in person at the same time. It’s tough being a teacher to begin with, but this last year has been tougher than most.

That’s just a small glimpse at what it takes to be a great teacher, which we’re blessed with a whole lot of here in North Missouri. These educators truly dedicate their lives to ensuring our children get the education they need and deserve.

It’s National Teacher Appreciation Week and, as I’ve done for many years, I introduced a resolution to thank the incredible teachers in our own community and across the country. All too often, being a teacher is a difficult, thankless job. We should all be grateful and thankful for everything they do for our communities. I know I wouldn’t be where I am today without the help of those who taught me.

A salute to our teachers

by Congressman Sam Graves

In my day, I’ve heard a lot of people talk about how easy it must be to be a teacher. I’ve heard it all—how short school days are, how great those long summer breaks must be, and how nice those benefits must be.

Well, let me be the first to tell you, those people don’t have a clue.

There’s a lot more to being a

Important decisions in final week

Eighteen weeks of legislative work will come down to one final hectic week, as it always does, this year from May 10-14. Many big issues (and a bunch of little ones) have yet to pass and hang in the balance. Here are a few of them.

fund the elementary and secondary foundation formula, as well as add money to the school transportation fund, which means districts should have the ability to keep buses on the roads and running full routes next school year. In my opinion, this is highly critical, especially for the rural school districts we have in northwest Missouri.

In addition, higher education will see an approximately 3.7 percent boost in funding. There will be added funding for Missouri Western University’s Scanlon Hall. Northwest Missouri State University will see approximately $5 million to renovate the infrastructure that heats and

that are not already taxed to raise money from citizens for state and local government.

Other members are okay with an internet sales tax to help our Missouri local businesses better compete with their internet rivals, but only if it is offset with some tax reductions so businesses have a level playing field and citizens are not financially harmed. And other members do not want an internet sales tax with or without a tax offset.

Transgender Sports: The legislature has debated whether or not a boy who identifies as a girl should be allowed to play on a girls’ sports team and compete with girls in high school sports, or if that would be unfair to the girls to have to compete with and against biological boys.

Election Integrity: Several bills have been debated to reform elections, including voter photo ID, requiring paper ballots, more secure absentee ballots, and changes to the initiative petition process that puts amendments to our constitution up for a vote.

These are just a few of the issues yet to be hammered out.

Which of these measures will pass, and which will fail? We will know in a week, and I will let you know in my capitol reports in the coming weeks.

Lawmakers may approve law to teach Bible in schools

by Will Morris, Missouri News Network

A new Missouri Senate bill that was heard in the House Elementary and Secondary Education Committee would allow school districts to start offering social studies courses on the Hebrew Scriptures, the Old Testament of the Bible and New Testament of the Bible.

Sen. Karla May (D-St. Louis) is the bill’s sponsor. She talked about her time at Saint Louis University and how similar classes she took there were important to her. She wants Missouri’s kids to be able to get that same kind of access to education.

“It broadens your horizon, so it’s not interfering or disrespecting anyone’s faith,” she said. “It’s just educating them.”

People who testified against the bill say it would give preference to some religions over others. They also worry it’s impossible to teach religious texts without inadvertently bringing religion into the classroom.

May’s bill includes the following language in an attempt to address those criticisms: “A course offered under this section shall follow applicable law and all federal and state guidelines in maintaining religious neutrality and accommodating the diverse religious views, traditions and perspectives of students in the school. A

course offered under this section shall not endorse, favor or promote, or disfavor or show hostility toward, any particular religion or nonreligious faith or religious perspective.”

But Brian Kaylor, president and editor-in-chief of Word&Way magazine, said the proposed law would pick favorites in regard to religion.

“Singling out the Bible as the sole religious text worthy of study is the state already picking winners and losers when it comes to religion and faith, by encouraging the teaching of this text and not others,” Kaylor said.

The legislation represents the latest effort by state lawmakers to make it explicitly clear that it is legal to teach the Bible, as a text, in public schools.

The bill already advanced through the Senate. It still has to be passed by the House Elementary and Secondary Education Committee, but committee chairperson Rep. Chuck Bayse, (R-Rocheport) indicated the bill will be voted through the committee this week.

It would then have to be passed by the full Missouri House before heading on to Gov. Mike Parson’s desk.

Bill to limit who inspects corporate farms stalls

by Adam S. Jackson, Missouri News Network

Legislation that would limit who can inspect agricultural facilities stalled in the Senate last week over concerns it would protect mega farms that produce toxic waste.

The effort comes as lawmakers strive to peel back rules and parameters related to the harmful environmental and public health consequences of concentrated animal feeding operations, or CAFOs. In 2019, Gov. Mike Parson signed a law that prevents counties from issuing health and safety regulations stricter than state laws governing industrial farms.

Senate Bill 254’s sponsor, Sen. Jeanie Riddle (R-Mokane), argued that the bill protects farmers from opportunistic animal rights activists whose goal is to “eradicate animal agriculture species by species, state by state.”

“I don’t know about the rest of you,” Riddle said. “I’m not vegan.

I like to eat meat.”

But critics say SB 254 would violate due process rights for environmental watchdogs — as well as those affected by the air pollution and lagoon breaches caused by CAFOs — while adding new protections for an industry that already lacks oversight from the Department of Natural Resources.

According to a subsection added to the bill’s language, “no testimony or evidence regarding any condition or event at the grounds or facilities …shall be used in any criminal prosecution or civil case” except by the sheriff in the county the farm is located or federal and state regulatory agencies with authority over: ► The production of eggs. ► The production of milk or other dairy products.

► The raising of livestock or poultry. ► The production or raising of dogs or other animals that are not used to produce any food product.

Sen. Greg Razer (D-Kansas City) supported one underlying goal of the bill that limits access to agriculture facilities. He cited concerns over the potential of biowarfare after watching a presentation on agroterrorism last year, he said. Even so, “It is that subsection four that I have heartburn over,” he said. He also noted concerns he had about unregulated “puppy mills” being granted more leniency under the subsection’s language.

Democratic lawmakers said the bill would violate the constitutional rights of those wanting to sue for damages related to CAFOs and also prohibit expert testimony in litigation.

“I’ve never seen that in legislation for anything before,” Sen. Steven Roberts (D-St. Louis), said in an interview with the Missourian. “Just looking at it as a lawyer, I think it’s bad public policy, and it’s unconstitutional as well.”

The Senate also passed an amendment to the bill that would exclude charter counties such as St. Louis, Jackson and St. Charles and any city not within a county.

“If this is such a great bill, why are we carving out other sections of the state?” asked Sen. Doug Beck (D-St. Louis). Riddle responded that these largely urban counties don’t have many agriculture facilities.

No other action was taken as Riddle moved to place it back on the “informal calendar,” a procedure that means it can be brought back before senators at any time. The Senate bill is similar to House Bill 574, which passed the House in February.

$1 million scheme to steal cell phones A Missouri man has been convicted in federal court for his role in a $1 million conspiracy to steal more than 1,400 cell phones in dozens of commercial burglaries across several states, as well as for obstruction of justice.

Bryan C. Kirkendoll II, of Kansas City, also known as “B Boy” and “Blockboy,” 31, was found guilty on May 5 of one count of participating in a conspiracy, three counts of transporting stolen property across state lines, two counts of witness tampering, and one count of transmitting threats in interstate commerce.

Co-defendant Viktor Chernetskiy, 31, of Kansas City, a naturalized citizen from Ukraine, pled guilty on June 17, 2020, to his role in the conspiracy and to one count of transporting stolen property across state lines.

Chernetskiy is scheduled to be sentenced on June 3, 2021.

Kirkendoll and Chernetskiy participated in a conspiracy to steal electronic devices – primarily cell phones – from stores in Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Illinois, and Oklahoma, then transport them across state lines in order to sell them. Kirkendoll and Chernetskiy committed 48 burglaries from Nov. 21, 2018, to June 14, 2019, in which they stole approximately 1,401 electronic devices (primarily cell phones) with a total financial loss of approximately $1,008,742.

In each instance, the stores were burglarized after hours; Kirkendoll and Chernetskiy wore hooded sweatshirts, caps, and gloves to conceal their identity and limit the trace evidence left behind during the burglaries. They pried the doors open with a large screwdriver or crowbar; in many instances, they broke the glass windows out of the doors, and then went through the opening. Once inside, they looked for phones that were not secured within a safe or other secure location and loaded those phones into a plastic bin, trash bag, or other bag. In some

instances, they also cut retractable security cables from store demonstration phones and took those as well. There was at least one instance where it appeared that they tried (unsuccessfully) to pry open a safe.

While he was on bond, Kirkendoll used intimidation and threats toward a victim-witness, in this case, to interfere with his pending criminal trial. In February 2020, Kirkendoll posted threatening messages on Facebook directed at the victim-witness, including, “U on borrowed time … Rats get Klapped snitch. (sic)” Kirkendoll also harassed the victim-witness from Feb. 13-19, 2020, in an attempt to dissuade that person from testifying at his trial.

Kirkendoll’s bond was revoked, and he was arrested in February 2020 for his threats toward the victim-witness.

Kirkendoll remains in federal custody.

Following the presentation of evidence, the jury in the U.S. District Court in Kansas City deliberated for almost three hours before returning the guilty verdict on May 5, to U.S. Chief District Judge Beth Phillips, ending a trial that began May 3.

Under federal statutes, Kirkendoll is subject to a sentence of up to five years in federal prison without parole on the conspiracy count, up to 10 years in federal prison without parole on each of the three counts of transporting stolen property across state lines, up to 23 years in federal prison without parole for both counts of witness tampering, and up to five years in federal prison without parole for transmitting threats. A sentencing hearing will be scheduled after the completion of a presentence investigation by the United States Probation Office.

This case is being prosecuted

by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Rudolph R. Rhodes IV and Matthew Blackwood. It was investigated by the Missouri State Highway Patrol and the FBI.

WMH Foundation nets nearly $10,000

Wright Memorial Hospital Foundation’s first ever virtual charity auction ended on April 25, and the results have been tallied. The event netted the Foundation nearly $10,000.

Those proceeds will be going to support the hospital’s Oncology Nurse Navigator Program, which offers free services to local oncology patients, as well as the Foundation’s general fund, which supports Wright Memorial Hospital in a variety of ways.

The auction was hosted in partnership by local auctioneer Michael Witten, and MW Auctions. The mission of the Wright Memorial Hospital Foundation is to promote, advance, encourage, assist, and support the growth, development, and operation of Wright Memorial Hospital.

adults are always looking at what their futures could hold.

All too often, those dreams are shattered by the act of being impaired while behind the wheel. It only takes one moment to redefine your future.

At the end of first quarter 2021, teen fatalities were up 63% over this time last year. In the last three years, there were 24 fatal crashes and 101 serious injury crashes involving an alcohol-impaired driver under the age of 21. As a result of making this wrong choice, 26 people died and 132 were seriously injured in these crashes.

“It’s all about making good decisions,” said Jon Nelson, chair of the executive committee of the Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety. “The futures of today’s teens can be quickly shattered by the consequences of one moment – one careless decision to get behind the wheel

Missouri has a Zero Tolerance Law. If you are under 21, your license will be suspended if you’re caught driving with even a trace of alcohol in your system.

Consequences of drunk driving include jail time, the loss of driver licenses or being sentenced to use ignition interlocks. Other financial hits include higher insurance rates, attorney fees and court costs.

Missouri’s new strategic highway safety plan, Show-Me Zero, Driving Missouri Toward Safer Roads, identifies four key focus areas to help turn the tide: occupant protection (seat belts, car seats and helmets), distracted driving, speeding and impaired driving. For more information on the Show-Me Zero plan, and to check out the Coalition’s new video promoting the plan, visit www.savemolives. com.

MDC reports turkey season ended with 34,593 birds Top harvest counties for the regular season were Franklin, Texas, and Callaway.

Preliminary data from the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) shows that turkey hunters checked 31,798 birds during Missouri’s 2021 regular spring turkey season, April 19 through May 9. Top harvest counties were Franklin with 710 birds telechecked, Texas with 666, and Callaway with 639.

Young turkey hunters also harvested 2,795 birds over the youth weekend, April 10 and 11, bringing the overall 2021 spring turkey harvest to 34,593.

Last year, young turkey hunters harvested 2,724 birds during the spring youth season and hunters harvested 38,734 during the regular spring season for a 2020 spring season total harvest of 41,458 birds.

“Spring turkey harvest was down this year, which can partially be explained by a decline in hunting participation,” said MDC Turkey Biologist Reina

Tyl. “Last year we saw a big increase in the number of permits sold and there was a subsequent increase in turkey harvest. This year, the permit sales total was closer to what was observed before the 2020 season. When turkey hunting participation declines, we expect to see a subsequent decline in turkey harvest.”

MDC had one report of a nonfatal hunting incident during the 2021 spring turkey season.

District baseball tourneys on the horizon Pattonsburg notches first GRC baseball championship The Pattonsburg Panthers baseball team won its first Grand River Conference championship with a 7-6 extra inning victory over previously undefeated Putnam County on May 6 in the GRC East-West matchup.

The team record currently sits at 10-1.

The Panthers got off to an early lead after Cameron Jones hit a 3-run home run in the first inning. Putnam then came back and tied the game 3-3.

The game remained tied and went into extra innings before the Panthers scored two runs on a hit by Cameron Jones and another on a single by Kaden de Jong. Jones would then score another run on a passed ball that extended the Panthers lead to 7-3.

Putnam County didn’t go down without out a fight as they scored three runs in the bottom of the 8th before grounding out for the final out with the tie and go ahead runners on second and third base.

The Panthers pitching effort was strong against a potent Putnam Country lineup with seniors Kaden de Jong and Cameron Jones splitting the pitching duties and giving the Midgets their first loss of the year.

The Panthers are set to head into the Class 1 District 15 tournament with only one loss if they can make it through a makeup game on May 13 against South Nodaway with Jefferson.

The Panthers also chalked up a win against St. Joseph Christian, 15-3, on April 29.

Gallatin’s Hayden Jumps claimed the 8th individual spot at the district golf meet held May 10 at Excelsior Springs. The day was sunny with a light wind, and par for the course was 72. Jumps will advance to the state competition next Monday.

Jumps shot a 94 on the par 72 course. Top honors went to Noah Hughes of Mid Buchanan with a 76 and Dylan Comstock of Albany/Orrick with a 77.

Broadband (continued from page 1) nity for the Project OVERCOME pilot. Maximize Northwest Missouri, which works with leaders in an 18-county region to improve vitality and prosperity in communities, had already identified infrastructure for broadband internet access as essential to the region’s economic success.

In a survey the group conducted last summer, 89% of respondents said high-speed internet was an important factor in choosing where to live, said Sarah Low, director of MU Extension’s Exceed - Regional Economic and Entrepreneurial Development program.

Christel Gollnick, founder and president of JUPER Communications, said local leaders know that lack of access to reliable and affordable high-speed broadband is a roadblock to innovation, population retention and growth.

“Entrepreneurs, professionals working remotely and students of all ages need the internet,” Gollnick said. “We need to do whatever we can to ensure equitable access in our rural areas. Maximize NWMO and The Clinton County Initiative are ready to help the Project OVERCOME team find a broadband solution that will improve

the quality of life, education, health and economic vitality of communities.”

As an example of what expanded broadband access can bring to the area, Low notes that while technical assistance for small businesses is available through the Small Business Development Center, the nearest office is in Kansas City.

“What if you could jump on Zoom to talk with SBDC counselors?” she said. “What if you could move back to Clinton County but continue to sell your goods or conduct your business

from there? Bringing money in from outside the community and outside Missouri is what will help grow our economy.”

A partnership with local 4-H will help families learn how to use computers and explore online resources available within the community.

“If successful, this approach can be disseminated and replicated by other rural co-ops and municipalities around the country,” said Sam Tennant, UM System Broadband Initiative manager.

Change of venue for Pattonsburg man on multiple sex charges Steven Dale Lawrence, 73, Pattonsburg, was granted a change of venue from Daviess County to Caldwell County on May 5. The case was heard by Judge Brent Elliott.

Lawrence faces first-degree felony charges of sodomy or attempted sodomy, seconddegree, third-degree, and two counts of fourth-degree child molestation; and sexual misconduct involving a child under 15.

May Is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month. Preliminary 2020 statistics indicate there were 173 crashes involving a motorcycle. In these crashes, 157 people were injured and 11 people were killed.

Car and truck drivers need to share the road with motorcyclists and keep the following in mind: * Drivers should actively watch for motorcyclists. * Motorcycles may look farther away than they are due to their smaller size. It is also difficult to judge the speed at which a motor-

cycle is traveling as it approaches. *Motorcycles are hidden easily in a vehicle’s blind spots, or masked by objects or backgrounds. Thoroughly check traffic before changing lanes! *Motorcyclists may slow down by downshifting or easing off the throttle. So, you may not see a brake light. Allow extra distance between your vehicle and a motorcycle. *A motorcycle’s turn signal does not cancel after the turn like a vehicle’s signal does. The motorcycle may not be turning, so pay

attention. *A motorcyclist will often adjust their position in the lane so they can see more easily or to avoid debris, wind, or passing vehicles. Allow the motorcyclist to share the lane; don’t assume they are being reckless. *Stopping distance for motorcycles is similar to that of cars.

But, slippery pavement can make stopping quickly difficult. Please allow more distance behind a motorcycle in these types of road conditions.

Our town, our state, our nation, our world needs more godly mothers (fathers also, but that is another story for another day). Godly mothers don't happen by accident and they do not raise godly children by accident. I heard about a mother of three very active young boys who was asked by some sensitive soul, “If you had it to do over again, would you still have children?” The young mother responded, “Sure I would…..but not just the same ones.” That can be told as a joke, but I am not telling it as one. It is a serious matter to consider that our children do not turn out the way they do by accident. Godly mothers and godly children do not happen by accident. Planning, preparing, protecting, and persevering are necessities.

You may not know who Jochebed is, but you surely have heard of her son, Moses. Exodus 2 does not name Moses' parents, but it tells their story. Exodus 6 and Numbers 26 reveal their names, Aram and Jochebed. The first nine verses of Exodus 2 tell us how Jochebed got to be a godly mother. Verse one declares very simply with no explanation that both were from the tribe of Levi, the priestly tribe; thus, we see that Aram and Jochebed chose godly spouses. Your chances of being a godly mother are very low unless you marry a godly husband. You will not marry a godly husband unless you plan to do so.

The Hebrews were slaves in Egypt. To keep them weak, the Egyptian Pharaoh ordered that all Hebrew boy babies be killed. Verse 2 says that Jochebed hid the baby Moses for three months. The point is that Jochebed risked her own life to save the life of her child. It also means that she was willing to subjugate her wishes and desires to the task at hand, protecting and nurturing her child. Hiding an infant who is being hunted by the authorities would be an all-consuming job.

Being a godly mother is an all-consuming job.

Verse 3 tells us that Jochebed prepared a basket of papyrus so that she could hide her precious baby in the Nile River. Can you imagine the care that went into preparing that basket? Can you imagine how much time was spent selecting the materials? The many coats of water-proofing? The many inspections that basket passed before it was deemed worthy for Jochebed to entrust her child to it? Preparation is necessary in being a godly mother who raises a godly child. Your chances of raising a godly child are very low unless you spend a great deal of time selecting and preparing and inspecting those things which you will entrust your child to. As a godly mother, you will need to examine closely the friends, entertainment, school, etc. that you entrust your child to. A godly mother regularly and consistently monitors and regulates her child's cell phone, internet, television, movies, friendships, etc. To do anything less is neglect. That is every bit as important as Jochebed's basket.

The Hebrew language in verse 3 is very interesting. The word which we have translated as “papyrus basket” is exactly the same word used in Genesis 6-9 to describe Noah's Ark. These are the only two passages where this word is found. Noah's Ark and Moses' Ark are both pictures of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Jochebed hid her child from the world for a while but when it became apparent that she could hide him no longer, she entrusted him to Christ. You have no chance of being a godly mother unless you place your child in the care of Christ.

Keep in mind that your child is a free moral agent who will make his own decisions. You place him in the care of Christ and the rest is up to him, you will have done your job.
