Churches send $8,300 to hurricane victims Needless to say, 2017 has been a terrible year for hurricanes impacting the United States, maybe the worst ever. With all of the news about the damage of Hurricane Irma to Florida, the devastation experienced by the Hous-

ton, TX, area from Hurricane Harvey has been overshadowed. Members of several churches throughout the area, however, have not forgotten the Hurricane Harvey victims. As a result of correspondence

Exploding bearing causes injury Steve Belshe was changing his tire in the shop at his brother Larry’s farm at about 10:40 a.m. on Sept. 13. While working, Steve suddenly came under assault. Steve was checking a ball bearing and had it on the press. He was using a chisel to clean it when the ball bearing blew out of its housing. The bearing, like a bullet or missile, knocked the chisel out of his hand and split his thumb open. He had a gash in his head and various cuts on his face caused by the oil and metal

flying up. A call was made to 911. An ambulance, fire truck and two county deputies soon arrived at the shop located about two miles south of Gallatin, just west off Hwy. 13. Steve was checked over by the ambulance crew. Larry was cleared to drive him to Cameron Hospital, where he had to have four stitches in his thumb. Larry was also affected by the mishap. Larry was standing close by when the incident oc(continued on page 16)

between Houston native Susan Gould Brock and members at Lake Viking Church, donations were collected from several local church congregations – Lake Viking Church, First Christian Church, First Baptist, and the Presbyterian Church all of Gallatin; the Fairview Church of Winston; the Kingston Nazarene; and the Kendall Congregation of Hamilton. Donations are still being accepted to be sent to members of the Willow Meadows Church of Houston, to those who suffered extensive property damage during the hurricane. Money collected so far by our local churches far exceeded expectations. A total of over $8,300 is being sent to directly help Houston Hurricane victims on a local basis with zero administrative costs.

This picture was taken Tuesday, Sept. 19, as clean-up began on the house at 202 N. Franklin. The house is owned by Tony Moore and rented to a tenant.

Firefighters respond to possible structure fire On Friday evening, Sept. 15, at approximately 6:17 p.m., Gallatin Fire Protection District was dispatched to 202 North Franklin for a possible fire in the residence. Engine 101 and Rescue 107 responded with nine personnel. Upon arrival on scene, fire crews found light smoke showing on the east side exterior wall. A 1-3/4 inch hose line was deployed. Crews made entry and found a light haze of smoke near the interior wall on the east side of the house. The wall

was breached open to find a small fire in the area of an electrical junction box and wiring. The electrical power was shut off to the residence, and crews extinguished the small fire with a water can extinguisher. Smoke was then vented from the house. The fire was contained to the wall with no further extension. The cause was found to be overheated electrical wiring. The property is owned by Tony Moore. Fire Crews released from the scene at approximately 7:06 p.m.

Convertible without grand marshals, parade without a crowd

Successful Chautauqua marked by sadness Rain, sudden death dampen festival spirit By many measures, the 32nd Annual Chautauqua in Gallatin was a successful weekend of festival activities and events. Although it did rain on the Chautauqua parade Saturday evening, there were low spirits caused by far more than just the weather. An unmistakable sadness pervaded this community after learning how the honored grand marshals of the parade, Kenneth and Lola Critten, were called away from town Saturday morning due to the sudden death of their son, Kris Critten. The convertible, designated for the grand marshals but empty except for the driver, was still at the head of the parade although damp weather and dampened spirits translated into a short parade before a sparse crowd. An obituary of the 48-year-old alumnus of Gallatin R-5 High School appears on page 7 inside this edition. Rainfall lightened later, allowing for the festival’s talent show and featured musical entertainment to be staged as planned. The following summarizes other parts of the 2017 Chautauqua. 2017 Car Show winners A fundraiser coordinated through the 2017 Chautauqua Car Show in Gallatin netted in excess of $700 before expenses, with net proceeds to benefit the Area Agency on Aging Center in Gallatin. The show attracted over 30 entries with trophies sponsored by local businesses. Car Show results are as follows: 2017 Best of Show -- Steve Beck of Gallatin, 1957 Chevy Suburban; 2017 People’s Choice Award -- Laura Cook of Cameron, 1928 Model A (a tie-breaker determined the trophy winner; others with identical judging scores were John Wilson of St. Joseph and Dan Claycomb, Stewartsville); Top 10 Entries (in no particular order) -- Dan Mason’s 1963 Chevy Impala, Jim Painter’s 1967 Firebird; Steve Brightman’s 1969 Chevy Camaro, Doug Long’s 1971 Chevy Camaro, John Wilson’s 1973 VW van, Brian Suan’s 1978 Chevy pickup, Ron Provin’s 1926 Model T, Larry Burrell’s 1967 Chevy pickup, Eric Knott’s 1967 Camaro, and Brice Terry’s 1933 Chevy pickup. Feel the burn! Chili cookoff winners A chili cookoff was sponsored by Daviess County Business Women’s Association on Saturday. Sarah Smith from Gallatin won the Judges’ Choice and Sherry Pettit Smith of Gallatin won People’s Choice. Pam Howard of Gallatin won the raffle, a three-day vacation (continued on page 16)

High school class ring lost at the lake, then found ...35 years later! by Troy Lesan as if it had been in the water a while, so I could begin this story by saying that the Hiblers took it home and began tryit all started with this July 23 Lake Viking ing to clean it up with a toothbrush and Group Facebook Post: “Has anyone lost toothpaste. In addition to the Albany High an Albany High School class ring at Beach markings, Flint and his son David evenOne lately?” And with that simple ques- tually found the initials C.W. When they tion, a great saga began to unfold, a story brushed a little more, the name Chuck that actually began 35 years ago ...but any- Wilkinson appeared. Further work on Facebook uncovered way, back to the origins of the Facebook a Chuck Wilkinson of Alpost. bany. Mary Hibler, unable Mary and Flint Hibler’s to resist the element of ulti11-year-old grandson, Mamate surprise, sent a Chuck son Hibler, was swimming a “friend” request. Chuck and hanging out at Beach thought about it — he was One, and as kids his age ofreluctant to “friend someten do, scavenging around one he didn’t know or hadn’t in the sand and rocks at waheard of ” — but he accepted ter’s edge in search of treathe request, and Mary imsures. As he ran his hand in Jaycee holds the ring that mediately messaged him: the sand, Mason suddenly her father gave to her mother “Did you lose something at felt something, and when before it was lost in 1982 Lake Viking a while ago?” he pulled his hand out of Chuck didn’t have any idea what Mary the water, a ring had magically found its way around his finger. It was high school was talking about. True, his high school class ring from Albany, Missouri, class sweetheart had lost his ring a long time of 1982. The ring was dull and tarnished, ago – she kept it on a chain around her

neck – but she had no idea where she had misplaced it. When Mary asked Chuck about the class ring, he was overwhelmed. Yes, it was his. He had given it to Beth Ann 36 years ago and, come to think of it, the two had been swimming at Lake Viking once upon a time so long ago. Mystery solved! As it turns out, the discovery of the ring was all the more special because of the complicated history following Chuck’s senior year. It was true, Chuck insists, that Beth Ann was always the love of his life, but she was a year younger and after he graduated from high school they drifted apart. He ended up in California, and she ended up marrying another young man. Meanwhile, Chuck married another woman. As fate would have it, both marriages fell apart, each divorced, they found their way back to each other, and married. A daughter named Jaycee was born from their union. Sadly, Beth Ann died of cancer in 2014 when daughter Jaycee was 14. “Jaycee misses her mother so much,”

Mason Hibler delivers the long lost class ring to Jaycee Wilkinson

Chuck relates. “The discovery of this ring is so meaningful to us. Now Jaycee wears the ring on a chain around her neck just as her mother did.” What a story ...and it was all brought about by an 11-year-old boy, searching for treasure in the sand at Lake Viking.

They want your blood by F rei d a M ari e C ru m p

Hoping for a way to save the Doughboy I’m biased but, hometown sentiments aside, the Daviess County Courthouse is one of the most impressive buildings housing a county government in Missouri. It is a reflection of its time of construction, when community pride perhaps soared as favorite son A.M. Dockery completed his term at Jefferson City as state governor. Our courthouse’s stone architecture sets it apart from the brickwork of so many others. Its appropriately proportioned setting as the centerpiece of the town square on a grass green, enhanced by tasteful landscaping and decorative street lamps, all helps to make our courthouse attractive. The renovated cannon with the salute to veterans, the hourly bell toll of the Seth Thomas clock from the courthouse dome, and, of course, Old Glory waving in the breeze, all add to the picturesque. Even after dusk the accent lighting continues to highlight our courthouse grandeur to local residents and visitors alike. It’s the seat of local government done right. All that’s missing is a statue. I’m dreaming (again) but perhaps so are those interested in saving a sculpture of particular importance to Lexington just a few miles south of us on Highway 13. Alumni of the now defunct Wentworth Military Academy want an iconic sculpture to be kept out of bankruptcy auction. As reported in the Kansas City Star, for nearly 100 years cadets at Wentworth saluted “the Doughboy.” The towering sculpture was dedicated in 1923 on the campus in Lexington to memorialize the 14 alumni who died in World War I. It depicts a charging soldier, mouth in a yell, one hand holding a rifle, the other raised with a grenade. For a while in 2002, the Doughboy spent some time in Kansas City. It was placed on exhibition at Liberty Memorial, the nation’s largest WWI monument, while funds were raised to restore and clean the sculpture. The Doughboy is a vivid memory for every Wentworth student and alumnus, which includes generals, a member of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, and two Medal of Honor recipients. Wentworth’s last year saw 220 cadets boarding at the school and 300

commuter students, but declining revenue and rising expense forced the academy to close last May after 137 years of tradition. Arguments over what to do with the Doughboy led to court action. The alumni association asked for a restraining order to keep the sculpture from being part of the auction of academy assets slated to sell on Oct. 7. Alumni argue possession because the statue was never actually given to the school. The alumni association says the former students purchased the piece in 1921 and paid for repairs and upkeep ever since.

O the E itor s S ike

by Darryl Wilkinson

Wentworth officials, faced with the task of settling debt, argue that the Doughboy has been with the school so long that the sculpture is one of the school’s many assets and fixtures. They say there is no documentation about the statue being on loan to the school but, rather, that the Doughboy was an outright gift, as are other donations of memorabilia. The bank handling the auction points out that the alumni association didn’t even exist until 2001. The hearing was held yesterday. The matter came down to the legal distinction between dedicated and gifted, and thus was a reminder to me how glad I am that I don’t have to confront such decisions while wearing the robes of a judge. According to the circuit clerk’s office in Lafayette County, a temporary restraining order was granted and courtroom deliberations on what to do with the Doughboy statue will resume at 9 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 29. These legalities and the emotional conflicts involved serve as a reminder how statues and memorials do matter. Deeply. Most every cadet passing through Wentworth at one time or another saluted the Doughboy. During cadets’ first year, called “rat (recruit-at-training)

5,451

year,” they could get no closer than 12 yards to the sculpture. It was only later, when they became an “old boy” that they could step close enough to read the plaque and the names of the dead. Most of us outside the argument might simply expect the Doughboy to relocate to the courthouse lawn. The Lafayette County courthouse is already noted for a Civil War cannon ball still lodged in one of its Roman columns. There’s an outstanding memorial to veterans on the west side of the courtyard, listing names below the flags and statue of the American eagle. Down the street is a statue memorializing pioneer women. So, it’s not as if the county seat of Lafayette County is void of memorials — not to mention the Anderson House and battleground park memorializing the Civil War’s “Battle of the Hemp Bales.” By comparison, Daviess County seems a bit bare. When I’m dreaming, I visualize how good it would be to erect a statue of Albert Gallatin here. It could be a miniature version of the one that stands today in front of the U.S. Treasury in Washington, D.C. Few others linked to our community can rival Gallatin’s prominence in the annuls of our country. A statue to memorialize the county seat’s namesake certainly sidesteps all the current flap about Confederation monuments located elsewhere in the nation. On the other hand, the courtyard is county property (not municipal) and so I presume an argument for erecting a statue of Col. Joseph Daviess would ensue. The hero of the Battle of Tippecanoe (1811), for whom our county is named, likewise predates the Civil War. Or, you actually could plead a good case to erect a statue in tribute to trailblazer Samuel P. Cox (who fought for the Union and so likewise sidesteps the Confederacy controversy). See how easy it is to get into such arguments, even if it involves nothing more than a daydream! So, when you think about it, it’s really no surprise that the Doughboy at Lexington still finds himself in battle. Here’s hoping the folks at Lexington find some way for the Doughboy to stay.

Cards may be emailed to K en at ken@ bradbury.cc or mailed to the following address: K en B radbury, 3 5 1 Sandusky, Jacksonville, I L 6265 0. D uring the weeks ahead, we will reprint favorite columns selected from previous editions. L ife’ s episodes often revealed through K en’ s pseudonum, Freida Marie Crump, are timeless. The following was first printed in this newspaper in 2012. Greetings from Poosey. I lay there bleeding and no one tried to stop it. The room was strewn with bodies. A man to the left of me laid there with outstretched arms, staring at the ceiling, as the fellow on my right lay still, eyes closed. Silent, blue-garbed figures moved from body to body looking at eyes, eyeing the accumulated blood, carefully watching for who might go next. I think I first donated blood as soon as I’d reached the legal age. In our family it’s a rite of passage like christening or moving up to the grownups’ table at Christmas. Once you reach the right age you hop up onto the cot and give blood. The facts are pretty clear. If you’re normal you walk around with about 10 pints of blood sloshing through your veins. The Red Cross only wants one of those. About 10 million folks donate 16 million pints a year and about 36% of our population is eligible to give. We need some 40,000 donations a day to keep up. Which brings us to the most alarming statistic: only 5% of eligible donors give blood. Let’s look at that again: 36% can, 5% do. This leaves 1.8% of our population keeping the other 95% walking, jogging, dancing, stumbling, eating, and complaining about health care. I’ve always found blood donation a pleasant experience. The medical folks are glad to see you, you meet other nice people who’ve chosen to donate (not many poopheads at a blood drive), the donation beds are comfy, and there’s always a cookie awaiting you when you get up. Okay, some of the process is a bit irritating. The questions the ask you can embarrass your Presbyterianism, and if they could find a way to test my blood without that little finger prick I’d be a happier donor, but overall the process is much less painful than getting out of your car after a two-hour ride. I would make one suggestion, however. How about a little entertainment while you’re being drained? I know that the medical personnel are too busy to go into a song and dance, and if a little gal is trying to find my vein I’d rather she avoid break dancing. Instead, I’d propose a little handout …something humorous to read. Maybe a tiny booklet with “The Lamest Reasons for Not Giving Blood.” I could help them write it from first-hand conversations I’ve had with my friends over the years. “I don’t give blood in case a member of my family needs it in an emergency.” Well Beulah, they’ll get it from the same place you’re giving it. Do you really plan to spend the rest of your life traveling side-by-side with this accident-prone family member, night and day, ready to open your veins in case he bumps his chin? “They won’t let me give.” Although this excuse is sometimes valid, it’s too often used by someone who had a head cold back in 1982 and have carried the excuse with them ever since. “I don’t like needles.” I don’t suck on penicillin for the fun it, Harriet, but it does me good and it saves a life. “I am too busy.” Could you please put that in a letter and send it to the tornado-ravished folks in Oklahoma. Don’t forget to sign your name. “I’ll wait ‘til there’s a special need.” People die without it blood transfusions. How “special” does your need have to get? “My blood isn’t the right type.” Your shoes may not be the right type, your personality may not be the right type, but honey, no matter what type blood you have, it’s right. “I’m afraid I’d contract AIDS.” I doubt. Those blood donation beds are too small for that sort of activity. Absolutely true: a young lady who was recently turned away because of her recent tattoo told me, “Thank God. I hate needles.” Of course, the quickest cure for all these excuses is to march your little fanny into a blood donation center, answer the questions, get a free mini-medical exam, shut up and stretch out your arm. Good Lord, if the sight of a needle bothers you turn your head. You’ve been turning your head to the blood shortage problem for years. Your neck is used to it. You ever ‘round Poosey, stop by. We may not answer the door but you’ll enjoy the trip.

Pathways to funding senior care services by S t at e R ep . J . E g g l est on

In the 2016 Veto Session, the Missouri legislature overrode 13 of then-Gov. Nixon’s vetoes. This brought his total of overridden vetoes in his gubernatorial career to over 90. This is more than all other Missouri governors combined (22), and it would not surprise me if it is more than any other governor in American history. By contrast, this year’s Veto Session, held on Sept. 13, produced no overrides of any of Gov. Greitens’ vetoes. The governor had vetoed five policy bills, and three line-items from budget bills. Only one of the policy bills, House Committee Bill 3, was brought up for veto override discussion. But its override failed by a vote of 49106. HCB 3 was a bill to deal with funding of certain senior care services. The topic of addressing the senior care services in some fashion other than an override was discussed. Iit appears that Republican and Democrat leadership from both House and Senate will meet in the coming weeks to see if there is a path to take money from somewhere and give to senior care services. If that path is identified in short order, the legislature may be called

back in to address the issue in a Special Session. If not, it will be a top priority when we return to Regular Session in January. The other well-publicized topic of discussion was the illadvised Facebook comments of Sen. Chappelle-Nadal and Rep. Warren Love. When a vandal defaced a Confederate memorial in Missouri, Rep. Love commented he hoped the perpetrators would be “hanged from a tall tree with

a long rope.” This comment offended some in the AfricanAmerican community who associated it with past lynchings of blacks by the Ku Klux Klan. Rep. Gail McCann-Beatty gave a short speech of admonishment about Rep. Love during Veto Session and filed an ethics resolution. This resolution will be taken up by the House ethics committee – a panel of five House Republicans and five House Democrats – in the near

future to decide Rep. Love’s fate. In the Senate, despite calls by several elected officials, Sen. Chappelle-Nadal was not expelled for her Facebook post of “I hope Trump is assassinated.” Instead, the Senate passed a resolution censuring her, and leaving the door open for possible expulsion if she does not resign by January. Censuring is a public declaration of blame, but does not necessarily mean a loss of privileges.

She has said she does not intend to resign. Expelling her would have required 2/3rds of the senators’ support, and while many would have voted for it, informal polling revealed it would not have been the 2/3rds needed. And now legislators will return to their home districts to be with their families, their constituents, and plan legislation for next session. Unless a Special Session is called, the legislature will not reconvene until Jan. 3.

Dear Editor: I am wondering why our city board doesn’t treat everyone equal. They are taking people to court for not obeying what they want. But they aren’t making a good example for the people. They aren’t working on city property to keep it cleaned up, especially behind city hall. The weeds have grown up high as the building. If we people let ours grow, we get a letter to clean up or go to court. Not fair. There are animals running over the village, not being tied or penned up. They don’t seem to care if they mess in someone else’s yard. I, for one, don’t like it. There are messes always in

the yard to step in. At night they come up on my porch and get the food I feed to my outside cats. I can’t afford to feed every animal in town. Sure hope something is done about it. The small town organization isn’t doing any good in this little village. Our city board is going ahead with some ordinances. Some of them that don’t amount to much, they push to court. Some things they should be looking into that would help this village, they are letting go. They seem to pick on certain people, and don’t know when to stop. When the city board decides to show some appreciation to the village and people in it, I believe

this little village would work out better and be a better village for people to live in. The organization people are taking advantage of these little towns and villages. We need help to get out of organization. Need a big change in the board members. Everyone should get out and vote. If they don’t, they shouldn’t have anything to gripe about. I hear that some people don’t get building permits. Some people have to buy them to redo little things around their properties. I think the permits should be for building buildings, not for redoing the porches, roofs, and decks that are going to improve the

properties. What do you think? We have a member of the board that screams, calls people liars and busy bodies and gets away with it by other board members. The village people don’t like that. Just because board members don’t like some people that are in the village they try to run over them. There is one street especially that needs to be cleaned up a lot and the board is letting the people trash it up a lot. What are citizens thinking when they drive through this village of ours? Not very much. They say it is a very trashy village. Dorothy Black, Altamont

Pickup, box truck meet head-on Two people were hurt in an accident that happened at about 11:07 a.m. on Sept. 18 in Harrison County. According to the highway patrol, Heather Fenton, 42, McFall, was westbound on Hwy. 136 driving a 2008 GMC pickup, pulling a horse trailer. Caleb Rustin, 26, Des Moines, Iowa, was eastbound driving a 2017 Hino box truck. About two miles west of Bethany, Ms. Fenton attempted to make a left turn onto Hwy. 69 and turned into the path of Mr. Rustin. Ms. Fenton’s vehicle began to skid and steered to the right trying to avoid the truck. Mr. Rustin’s truck struck Ms. Fenton’s pickup head on. Mr. Rustin’s truck went off the south side of the roadway, coming to rest in a ditch. Ms. Fenton’s pickup came to rest on the roadway.

Woman hurt when fails to make curve Denise Wilgus, 33, Gilman City, received minor injuries in an accident that happened at about 3 p.m. on Sept. 18 in Harrison County. According to the highway patrol, Ms. Wilgus was southbound on Hwy. 146 driving a 2014 Hyundai. At Route MM, six miles southeast of Bethany, she failed to make a curve and went off the west side of the roadway.

Five year deer study enters 3rd season Biologists from the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) and the University of Missouri-Columbia (MU) are tracking 108 deer in four northwest Missouri counties dominated by agriculture and 101 deer in four counties in the Ozarks where forest habitat prevails. Hunter harvest and natural mortality are both factors in how the state’s deer populations fare in varied habitats. So hunters should not let a collar on a deer influence their decision on whether or not to harvest the animal. Biologists trap the deer during the winter months, collect data from them such as size, sex and age, place tracking collars on them, and then release them.

GPS collars then send regular data about the deer’s location and movements to the satellite, which relays that information to computers. The study is nearing almost one million data points on file. The information will be used in years ahead to help make management decisions about the state’s deer herd. For example, regulations may be adjusted according to a region’s rise or fall of deer numbers due to disease or harvest pressure. Deer were trapped and collared last winter in Douglas, Howell, Texas and Wright counties in the Ozarks; and Nodaway, Gentry, Andrew, and DeKalb counties in northwest Missouri.

She overcorrected, came back across the roadway, and went off the east side, striking a highway sign and coming to rest. Ms. Wilgus was taken to Bethany Hospital by NTA. She was wearing a seat belt. The Hyundai was totaled. The accident was investigated by Tpr. D.M. Wilburn, assisted by Cpl. C.J. Sullivan and Harrison County Sheriff’s Office.

Kris began his working career at Landmark Manufacturing, the family business, where he worked at various jobs within the company. Kris always tackled his job with enthusiasm, and being a team player was a priority to him. Kris was a member of the Freedom Riders; though he didn't ride, his passion for bikes was apparent.

Gallatin grinds out 17-6 win over much-improved South Harrison There were no game-changing plays. No obvious turning point. Friday night’s Gallatin-South Harrison football tilt was a penalty-gorged grinder from start to finish. The visiting red and black Bulldogs hung tough for a 16-7 and are currently hanging tough in the conference race as one of only two unbeaten teams heading into Friday night’s Homecoming matchup with Milan. Princeton takes a 5-0 overall record and 3-0 league mark up against Maysville this week. South Harrison jumped out to a 6-0 lead with barely three minutes off the first quarter clock. Treyton Campbell got behind GHS defenders and hauled in a 57-yard pass from Cody Weller. The try for two points through the air failed. Despite some success in the passing game, South Harrison’s scoring night was over. Gallatin scored the next two TDs and a field goal, despite piling up pen-

alty yards on both sides of the ball. Gallatin threatened on its second possession of the game, moving the ball down to South Harrison’s two-yard line before a pair of holding calls and a fumble ended the promising series. Alternating runs by Cole McBee, Corbin Toney and Caleb Boyd produced success early in the second. Toney polished off the drive at 9:02 of the second quarter with a nine-yard run, and with Adrian Hernandez’s kick, the red and black Bulldogs took a 7-6 lead. Both teams battled adversity before the end of the half. South Harrison recovered a muffed punt and the Weller to McCampbell combination produced another apparent TD, but the play was nullified by a holding penalty. Boyd picked off a tipped pass at the five-yard line but a roughing-the-passer call kept the ball in South Harrison’s hands. Defensive end Tom Crouse

registered the first of his three quarterback sacks to kill the drive. South Harrison gained possession again with less than a minute left before intermission. A pass interference call moved the ball to the GHS 29, but Crouse roared in for another sack back at the 36. With the clock running, Weller spiked the ball to gain one more pass play that failed to connect. Gallatin opened the third quarter with its best offensive series of the night. Boyd returned the kickoff to the SH 34. Toney carried three times to the 29. A McBee to Boyd swing pass gained yardage to the 12. Two plays later, a block by Gabe Cole on the outside sprung Boyd into the end zone on a reverse. Hernandez added the PAT for a 14-6 cushion. All third quarter action continued to take place on South Harrison’s side of the field. Defensive pressure by Graydee Rains forced a bad punt and Gallatin took over just before the end of the quarter at South Harrison’s 38. McBee ran to the 10-yard line but the drive stalled and Hernandez came on to split the uprights with a 27-yard field goal. The clock became Gallatin’s friend in the final period but Gallatin continued to give South Harrison opportunities through penalties. A defensive holding call negated a quarterback sack. Pass interference and illegal hands to the face kept another drive alive for the home Bulldogs. Back-to-back quarterback sacks forced South Harrison into a 4th and 14. Weller hit McCampbell for their fifth connection of the night but Gaven Gray made the tackle at Gallatin’s 24, short of a first down. South Harrison intercepted a late McBee pass but a roughing call allowed McBee to take

Gaven Gray and Cole McBee team up to stop South Harrison’s Treyton Campbell after a pass reception. Staff photo/DC a knee and kill the clock. Toney topped 100 yards for the second straight game, finishing with 118 yards on 20 carries.

The residents of Beaumont, Texas, may be identifying with the sailor in Coleridge’s Rime of the Ancient Mariner, “Water, water everywhere, and not a drop to drink.” Hurricane Harvey dropped over four feet of water on them in less than 72 hours causing massive floods and destroying much of the city. When the rains finally ceased and people could return to their homes, they were instructed not to consume the water. It was not safe. The city water system, including the primary and backup pumps, was broken. Surrounded by floods of water, they had no water. Believing, as I do, that God speaks to us in everything, I am asking if He has a message for me in this. Since Beaumont is several hundred miles away, it would be easy to assume not. Still the question lingers, does God have a word for me? How would He have me respond? We have a niece who lives in the area, and we have kept in touch with her. Her husband works at a ro Wa aris hospital in Houston and needs to be on duty 24/7 during this crisis so our niece and her daughter are home alone. We are praying for them. We are praying for all the victims of Harvey. We should do that, but it seems quite impersonal. By the same reasoning, we plan to contribute to Houston’s recovery; but considering the great need and our limited resources, that will hardly be a drop in their water-filled bucket. Besides, to whom should we send our contribution? There are many conduits of help. The irony of Beaumont’s plight is there is water; but the pumps, the forces that send the lifegiving water, have failed. Much has been said recently about the shrinkage of churches in our land. Church rolIs are declining. We aren’t reaching the people. It isn’t that there are no lost people to reach. If statistics are correct, there are more lost people out there than ever before. Like Beaumont, surrounded by our “product,” the system for reaching them is faltering. The irony of our plight is the church is drowning in a sea of lost people. If Coleridge could write of our plight, perhaps he would pen, “Lost men, lost women, lost children everywhere; and still our rolls did shrink.”

New scholarship memorializes Jamesport’s Kathryn Cleeton Community Foundation announces scholarship Everyone can recall a special teacher that made a positive impact on their life. Maybe it was an elementary teacher, a high school instructor or a college professor or coach. No matter what level of instruction or what they taught, their influence affected your life and they are someone that you will always remember. Such is the case of many alumni of Tri-County R-7 High School who recall the impact that Mrs. Kathryn Cleeton had on their lives, and how her influence continues long after high school graduation. Mrs. Cleeton taught instrumental and vocal music at Jamesport from 1970 to 1984. A graduate of Trenton High School, Mrs. Cleeton attended Trenton Junior College and graduated from Nebraska Wesleyan University earning degrees with a double major and teaching certification in Vocal and Instrumental Music Education K-12, and a Minor in Physical Education. An accomplished musician herself, Mrs. Cleeton played most every instrument. She had an unending patience for finding talent in the most unlikely students, encouraging the shy and otherwise reserved kids to participate in singing groups and musical activities that one might never have dreamed of joining. Many a farm boy or girl might find themselves in a group singing at state music competitions, and later comment that they would never have tried anything like that had it not been for Mrs. Cleeton. Mrs. Cleeton taught music in many school districts during her teaching career including Kansas City, Milan, Green City, Smithville, Jamesport, and finally at Bishop Hogan Memorial School in Chillicothe. As a young girl, Kathryn was affectionately known as “Pep” Shaw. Anyone who knew Mrs. Cleeton would certainly understand why she received that

nickname. She possessed the “pep” that allowed her to create her own musicals; many of which she wrote and choreographed for school and the community. The endless hours of rehearsals for such programs and school music competitions required more than just “pep”; it required talent and dedication that went far beyond her job expectations. For that reason, she made a long-lasting impact on the lives of students who went on to work in a myriad of diverse professions. Mrs. Cleeton truly left a legacy throughout the schools and communities in which she served. In addition, she was the proud mother of two outstanding daughters: D. Ann Cleeton Wright and Kimberly Cleeton, sharing her love of music with both of them and so many others. Mrs. Cleeton passed away in 2013. The Tri-County R-7 School District, in coordination with the Community Foundation of Northwest Missouri, has embarked upon a scholarship drive to not only strengthen existing scholarships for their graduating seniors but also to establish new ones. Former students of Mrs. Cleeton have established the Kathryn Cleeton Memorial Scholarship. It is to be awarded to a Tri-County R-7 High School graduate beginning in the spring of 2018. The emphasis of this scholarship is for a student pursuing a degree in education, or college music studies, either instrumental or vocal. Persons interested in sharing their love for Mrs. Cleeton may contribute to the endowment of the Kathryn Cleeton Memorial Scholarship by mailing gifts to the Community Foundation of Northwest Missouri in care of Steve Maxey, 11005 North Hunter Avenue, Kansas City, MO 64157. Your gift is tax deductible.

Holder offered contract as FFA sponsor Amy Holder was offered the assistant FFA sponsor extra duty contract during the meeting of the Gallatin R-5 Board of Education held Thursday, Sept. 14. Ryan Terry, Navitas, gave a presentation on conserving resources and renewing buildings. Navitas is an energy savings company, offering engineering, construction and building projects. One of the projects that Gallatin R-5 is looking to accomplish before next year is the completion of the walkway. The board unanimously voted to approve the reclassification of Caitlin Heckenbach. Caitlin, a junior, has worked on the Acellus program and will have enough credits to graduate this year. She will be classified as a senior now. Reports from Superintendent Copple, Principal Burke, Principal Otto, Principal Cox and Activities Director Gann were presented. At last month’s meeting, a group attended asking the board to start a baseball program for Gallatin R-5. The board discussed the issue and wants more time to review, but a deci-

sion is expected at the October board meeting. The 2017-2018 district wide evaluation plan was approved. Board Policy IKFA, which refers to early graduation requirements, was revised. Now, candidates must have attended at least seven semesters at Gallatin R-5 before they can seek early graduation. Board Policy GBBDAA, regarding staff sick leave, was revised to include step children. Lori McLaughlin presented her technology report. The board entered into closed session for discussing personnel. The above are from the unapproved minutes of the meeting of the Gallatin R-5 Board held Sept. 14.

GHS girls claim second straight GRC golf title, 13th overall; district Monday Gallatin’s girls are again champions in Grand River Conference golf, and this time it wasn’t even close. The Lady Bulldogs, in capturing their second straight league golf title and 13th overall for the program, beat Stanberry by 41 strokes, 418 to 459, with four team members placing individually in the top ten. Kelli Lynch and Megan Cox shot rounds of 95, along with Trenton’s Werthen Gass, who took the medalist honor after a scorecard playoff. Lynch was second and Cox third. Ally Johnson finished sixth with a 113 and Sarabeth Michael placed seventh with a 115. Jacklyn Maize also competed for the Lady Bulldogs. Eight schools sent full teams to Monday’s conference meet, held at Mozingo Lake Golf Course in Maryville. Pictured after their victory on Monday are, left to right, Maize, Cox, Johnson, Lynch and Michael. The Lady Bulldogs are coached by Cindy Boles. Gallatin’s junior varsity team won their conference crown by default on Tuesday due to no other league schools fielding full squads. Libby Endicott took second for the Lady Bulldogs with a round of 64, beating out Claire Hemry, who also shot 64. Jenni Teel and Jenna Rains were fifth and sixth, respectively, after shooting rounds of 70. Jessica Hart and Riley Dutro shot 75 each for eighth and ninth places. Johnna Tadlock and Sarah Morrison finished 10th and 11th for Gallatin. The Lady Bulldogs made Bethany’s course their own on Tuesday, Sept. 19, and in doing so reached a milestone for Coach Boles. With a nine-hole team score of 180, Gallatin bested four other conference schools in quad competition. Gallatin’s four-player total was the lowest of any team Boles has ever coached. Cox won the medalist honor with a 43, besting Johnson by two strokes. Lynch and Michael each shot 46 and Maize added a 54 for Gallatin.

Claire Hemry and Jennie Teel led jayvee efforts with rounds of 61. Jessica Hart and Jenna Rains shot 64 each. Libby Endicott and Sarah Morrison carded rounds of 65 and 66, respectively. Johnna Tadlock and Riley Dutro also competed for Gallatin junior varsity squad. Gallatin finished off its undefeated regular season schedule last Thursday with some “home cookin” at Daviess County Coun-

try Club. The Lady Bulldogs shot 190 to defeat Stanberry (205), Braymer (241) and Albany (267). Cox was again meet medalist with a 46. Lynch and Allison Marticke of Stanberry each shot 47. Michael and Johnson shot 48 and 49, respectively and Maize finished with a 52. Hemry’s 68 led the Lady Bulldogs’ jayvee. Gallatin’s varsity will compete in the Class 1 district tournament on Monday.

Bus routes approved at N. Daviess Bus routes were approved during the Sept. 18 meeting of the North Daviess R-3 Board of Education. Callie Heckenbach’s route has 27 students and transports 31.2 miles and Craig Heckenbach’s route has 38 students and travels 30.6 miles. The Special Ed Compliance Plan was approved. Some discussion was held regarding the Athletic Coop sponsorship and options for spring baseball next year. Principal Kelly Hightree reported that enrollment is at 85 with three students in preschool, 49 in elementary and 49 in high school. First and second year teachers and their mentors both attended meetings last week.

The HDC conference meeting at North Harrison was attended by five members. FFA fruit sales have begun and will run through Oct. 6. The FFA went to Albany to the Hundley/ Whaley FFA day on Sept 14. Juniors and seniors attended the college fair in Trenton. Junior high basketball practices have begun.

Lady Bulldogs rally to beat Albany, 5-4, in extra inning Rain forced cancellation of Gallatin’s softball game at Lawson on Monday but the Lady Bulldogs were able to pick up a win Tuesday against Albany. Gallatin will host Braymer tomorrow (Thursday) in the Grand River Conference interdivision series, matching up the #3 teams in the East and West divisions. Gallatin will travel to East Buchanan on Monday and King City on Tuesday as the season nears its final month. Gallatin needed an extra inning Tuesday to complete a come-from-behind rally and defeat Albany, 5-4, in softball action on the road. The Lady Bulldogs trailed, 4-2, heading into the seventh inning but singles by Caragan Baker and Courtney Shubert and a double from Kelsey Maxwell sent the game into the eighth inning after Baker, in relief of Karley Salmon, retired the Lady Warriors in their half of the seventh. Essie Williamson singled to lead off Gallatin’s half of the eighth. Bethany Bailey came in as a pinch runner and moved to second base on a passed ball. Baker, looking for her third hit of the game, singled with two outs to plate what would be the winning run. Shubert and Williamson each finished with two hits. Aubrey Feiden, Maxwell, Maelea Coulson and Addison Burns all had a hit for the Lady Bulldogs. The Lady Warriors turned the tables in the jayvee game, ral-

The company, based in Nashville, TN, was founded in 2006 but its roots in hospice reach back to 1979. Today, the company operates more than 150 hospice, palliative and home health programs in 31 states across the U.S. ‘Block and Rock’ winners The winner of the OATS board quilt block was Annie Nelson.

Explosion (continued from page 1) curred. The force knocked him backward and now he can’t hear out of his right ear. “Steve’s lucky the ball bearing didn’t hit him,” said Lana Belshe, Steve’s sister-in-law. “The ball bearing was found on the other side of the shop. A hammer was lying on the table next to the press. It flew off the table and landed under the truck from the force of the explosion.”
