Natural splendor the focus of 31st Poosey Fall Tour on Oct. 15 The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) will host the 31st annual fall driving tour through the Poosey Conservation Area noon to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 15. The free tour gives the public a chance to drive on roads and trails not normally open to the public for vehicles. Rugged, forested hills will be in fall colors and visitors will find conservation education stopping points along the tour route. The tour begins at Pike’s Lake on the northeast side of the conservation area, which is reached off Route W and County Road 502 northwest of Chillicothe in Livingston County.

Gates will open at noon and the last vehicles will be allowed to begin at 4 p.m. This tour guides visitors through a historical site once known as the Poosey community. Visitors can stop at exhibits or take a walk in the woods, such as on the trail that leads to the Panther’s Den, a sandstone bluff above a scenic creek. MDC is celebrating 80 years of conservation in 2017. Visitors can provide comments about conservation programs, regulations, and issues at one of the tour stops. MDC staff members will also be stationed along the route to explain habitat management practices benefiting wildlife and native plants. Visitors can learn about grassland restoration, forest management, healthy habitat (continued on page 5)

Kevin Novak retires from Gallatin’s MoDOT maintenance facility after 18 years service

Rain or shine, Gallatin welcomes bargain hunters this Saturday as the annual fall Citywide Garage Sale unfolds from 8 a.m. to ? As this goes to press, there are 36 households participating! Maps available at Corner Cafe and Casey’s by Friday.

Kevin Novak, an 18-year employee of the Missouri Department of Transportation, retired on Oct. 1, 2017. Novak retired as a senior maintenance worker at the Gallatin maintenance facility. Novak began working with MoDOT as a maintenance worker at Gallatin in June 1999. Novak and his wife Laura will enjoy spending more time in retirement with their four grandchildren. They will continue to raise cattle and hope to get in some more fishing. Novak’s favorite part of work-

ing with MoDOT has been all the great people he said he’s been fortunate to work with. Novak said he will not miss the phone ringing in the middle of the night and is looking forward to just relaxing and watching it snow this winter. “We want to thank Kevin for his 18 years of service to the department and the citizens of Missouri,” said District Engineer Don Wichern. “We appreciate his dedication and hard work and wish him and Laura a very happy and long retirement.”

Six children hurt in buggy-car accident Six children were hurt in an accident involving a car and a horse-drawn buggy which was carrying the children. The accident occurred about 8 a.m. on Sept. 28 on Route D in Daviess County. Neighbors of the Amish families report that only one of the children, Jemima Miller, 13, is still in the hospital at Children’s Mercy. She will need surgery on her toes, feet and legs. Both legs were injured and she will be in a wheelchair for several weeks. The other children, who were taken to Cameron Hospital, are home with various injuries and hope to be back to school in the next week or so. They are Abraham Bontrager, 10, Allen Bontrager, 8, Susan Bontrager, 11, Lydia Miller, 15, and Susie Miller, 11. The children were all from Kidder. Kacey Taylor, a neighbor, cared for the horse involved in the accident and said that the horse is doing fine. The mare had a (continued on page 12)

Hunter skills training offered Oct. 14 at Gallatin A Hunter Education skills training session will take place in Gallatin on Saturday, Oct. 14, at Gallatin R-5 High School from 8 a.m. to noon. Class size is limited. Online pre-registration is required. The Missouri Department of Conservation recently revised the Hunter Education course for

student convenience and to emphasize hands-on training. The course is now a two-step process. The first step is to complete the knowledge-based training through one of three options. Option 1: Take the online/mobile study portion and complete the review quizzes. The student must show the

Missouri Skills Session Qualifier Certificate to enter the skills session. Option 2: Complete, at your own pace, the home study portion by requesting a Hunter Education student manual. Bring the manual with all review sections completed to the Skills Session.

Highway 36 Quilt Trail wins Tourism’s Pathfinder Award Following in the footsteps of people like Mark Twain and Walt Disney, the Missouri Highway 36 Heritage Alliance has found another way to boost travel along the route known as “The Way of American Genius.” The American Genius Highway Corridor is an area spanning 36 miles north and 36 miles south of Missouri’s Highway 36. The Missouri Highway 36 Quilt Trail took home the Pathfinder Award at this year’s Missouri Governor’s Conference on Tourism, held Sept. 26-28 in Branson. This honor is given annually and seeks to recognize the efforts of individuals and organizations that target specific niche markets and achieve great results. The award was presented by Lt. Gov. Mike Parson, who serves

on the Missouri Tourism Commission, and Missouri Division of Tourism Director Dan Lennon. Accepting the award were Beth Carmichael, the St. Joseph CVB’s director of project development, and Meg Gazaway, marketing director at Missouri Star Quilt Company in Hamilton. Both also represent the Missouri Highway 36 Heritage Alliance. About three years ago, the Highway 36 group was asked to consider the idea of developing and promoting a quilt trail along the route whose cities include the hometowns of Twain, Disney, the site of the Pony Express, the Home of Sliced Bread and other innovators and innovations. Carmichael was a leading voice in the effort and, with buyin from quilt shops and quilters along Highway 36, the quilt trail was born.

Since its inception, participating shops on the trail have seen a tremendous response from visitors, with many reporting revenue increases of more than 20 percent, increased visitor traffic and the need to hire additional staff. More than 500 requests related to the Quilt Trail have been received through the dedicated Highway 36 Quilt Trail website since fall 2016. Among those seeking information were many out-of-state residents who indicated they’d be traveling to Missouri in the near future -- some specifically for the Highway 36 Quilt Trail experience. Having been featured in McCall’s Quilting magazine and America’s Patchwork and Quilting, it is clear the Highway 36 Quilt Trail has earned a reputation as one of the top quilting

destinations in the U.S. The Missouri Highway 36 Quilt Trail was one of several honorees at the Sept. 27 tourism awards banquet held at Branson.

Option 3: Register and attend the four-hour classroom session presented by Hunter Education instructors. The second step is the skills session. The skills session must be attended by all students, regardless of the option used to complete the knowledge-based training. The skills session is separate from the knowledge-based training, and consists of training that is primarily hands-on training of critical skills. The skills session takes only four hours. It concludes with a 35-question multiple choice final exam that is weighted heavily on the knowledge studies. You must achieve an 80% (miss no more than seven questions) or higher to pass the final exam and be certified. The skills session is free of charge. Student manuals for the knowledge studies are available at Pierce Gun Works/Pierce Auto Supply in Gallatin or the Missouri Department of Conservation Regional Office in St. Joseph 816-271-3100. Go to the Missouri Department of Conservation website at www.mdc.mo.gov. If you have any questions or need a student manual, call Alan Bradford at 660-605-2893.

Compare college tuition costs Bernie Sanders’ idea for our country to somehow provide free tuition to all college-age Americans always struck me as a financially irresponsible campaign gimmick. Headline news continues to target student loan debt as a growing concern. Tuition at both public and private schools continues to rise at a fast clip. Some estimate that Americans collectively owe more than $1.3 trillion in student loan debt. This problem isn’t going to just fade away. Without reversal, what will student debt be in 20 years when today’s toddlers crawl across the stage to grasp their diploma? College is expensive, and its cost is only increasing. We all know that. But, do we really know what we’re talking about beyond generalities such as these? Recently, I stumbled into something worth your consideration. The Chronicle of Higher Education operates a website for academia which, given a chance, might find its way on your favorites list. As you might expect, the spectrum of topics the Chronicle addresses is vast. The Chronicle used data from the College Board’s Trends in College Pricing to present something like a shopping list. If you go online, you can use the interactive chart to sort all this data to your specific interest. In other words, you can rank colleges by tuition (in-state or out-of-state) or room and board for any state in our union. By playing around while sorting the data, you quickly discover not all states are created equal. The most expensive school in California runs $69,717 per year! The least expensive? Look at Wyoming where the most expensive school in that state costs $26,535 per year -- even less for local students (how was Bernie going to handle such discrepancies across this marketplace?). I chose “Missouri” and then sorted to deliver a list of public 4-year institutions. From those results, I easily compiled a rankOver

ing from most to least expensive. The chart even allowed for costs to be adjusted for inflation. It’s a cost comparison I didn’t know existed. I wanted to present a list in this column, ranking all of Missouri’s 4-year colleges by totaling the in-state tuition with room and board expense. The data, however, may not be copied, published or rewritten or redistributed without permission. I didn’t ask; I’m just happy they’re telling (at least online).

Anyone can perform your own study by going online to www. chronicle.com/interactives/tuition-and-fees. It is worth your time. Or stop by the office and I’ll gladly share a copy of my comparisons privately with you. I’m not a financial giant. I’m the guy who hires smart gals who make it their business to keep me far away from the cash register at the front desk and out of the entries into Quickbooks. And you probably don’t realize how very much I appreciate their diligence. So, obviously, I can’t personally vouch for or against the accuracy of this information. But you don’t have to be a math major to find these numbers interesting. Like our hospitals, our colleges really, really, really, really don’t like such simple comparisons. Costs cause outrage. It’s to their advantage to fragment our focus. As a society, we suffer ADHD (attention deficit disorder) even on things expensive and significant. My bet is most Missourians know more about where Mizzou’s football team ranks than where MU’s tuition ranks nationally or even within the state (MU, by the way, is not

atop Missouri’s all 4-year institution list). Perhaps many high school counselors provide cost comparisons to assist parents confronting tuition decisions. Hopefully, so. High school seniors on the cusp of stepping into student debt today should be much more aware and focused than I was at their age. Costs, however, are just part of the equation. How do you put a dollar amount on the personal contacts and relationships which so frequently define success? Aspiring high school seniors should consider where to locate their college career, if costs allow, since it frequently impacts residence and lifestyle that follows. Ranking colleges by cost isn’t the only comparison to consider. The homework should also compare each college’s success rate in placing its graduates into the job market -- not just the percentage of success but also the time frame. This comparison defies simplicity (how many college freshmen can even declare their field of major study?). Yes, there are many other considerations besides cost that impact choices. No doubt college administrators would add arguments and confusion to simple comparisons, some perhaps even boasting, “You get what you pay for!” Apart from the ranking presented, much of the thought written here simply states the obvious. I’m just saying most folks would like to start the decision process with a simple cost comparison. If college regents and administrations don’t understand that, then the disconnect spawning the term “Ivory Towers” continues. Stupid me. I also think hospitals should be required to systematically report the cost of each surgery for easy comparison for all citizens to see ...and not force us individually to run to the internet to cobble together whatever information we might happen to find. How ‘bout you?

Greetings from Poosey. I’d gathered a few friends for lunch at a nearby downtown square recently when suddenly the ice in our glasses began to rattle. Then the floor began vibrating and within seconds the plate glass in the café window shook with a violence that I thought was only confined to the west coast earthquake zone, and before long we could no longer hear ourselves talk. My friend, Marge, shouted, “Good God Almighty! It’s the end of the world!” The gal on my right checked her iPhone and found that there was no end-of-world event on her schedule and calmed our fears by simply saying, “Motorcycles.” A group of otherwise mature men were circling the town square on Harleys, Hondas, and hormones, revving their engines, kicking up a storm of dust in the street and a stream of conversation at our lunch table. “Why do they do that?” I asked. “Do what?” asked Marge. “I can sort of understand why an otherwise mature man would want to take a ride with what’s left of his hair blowing in the wind, but why do they find it necessary to rev the engines?” My little group of gals looked clueless so I went on. “Would you walk into someone’s living room and start blowing a fog horn? I mean, do they realize how all that noise intrudes on the lives of the rest of us?” “That’s exactly why they do it, Freida,” said Helen. “It’s the adult male version of belching loudly in kindergarten or wearing your pants too low when you’re a teenager. It’s a male thing. Haven’t you seen the male peacock spread his tail to get attention?” I glanced out the window of the restaurant as the herd of motorcyclists took a second lap around the square. None of them looked like peacocks. Graying turkey buzzards, maybe. “It’s like North Korea,” said Mildred. You must realize that our friend Mildred is the queen of the non sequitur. Her logic often follows a pattern closely resembling that of a slug on the sidewalk, meandering this way and that. We did our usual trick of staring at her blankly until she saw fit to explain. “You know. North Korea. That little fellow Kim Jong Dong or whatever he’s called. If the world goes a week without noticing him then he threatens all out war on somebody.” Like much of what Mildred says, this nugget of insight slowly began to sink in and I for one began to see her point. “Men have to be noticed,” said Mildred. “Just like North Korea.” “Women don’t have to be noticed?” I asked. “Well, yes,” said Mildred, “but we don’t rev our engines.” “Then what do we do?” I asked her. “We go shopping.” The rumble rats were making their third lap around the square and by this time the entire restaurant was a cacophony of shouts as harried waiters tried to take orders over the din outdoors. Dingy Mildred chimed in with, “My cousin wears noise-muffling ear things when he rides.” I stared at her. “He purposely buys a motorcycle that roars then blocks out the roar with his own set of earmuffs?” She shrugged. “He says it’s like making iced tea. You boil it to make it hot, put in ice to make it cold, sugar to make it sweet then lemon to sour it.” I think I may have grunted, feigning understanding. One of the things I miss most about our lunchtime chats is the need to guess and think. Used to be if we didn’t know an answer to something then we’d spend a delightful few minutes trying to figure it out. “Who was the president after Polk? ...How did this street get its name?” Now we sit there while someone Googles the answer on her phone. While we talked about how decibel and testosterone levels might be related, Helen was busy asking her iPhone. She announced, “It says here that there are legal limits to noise levels on bikes coming out of the factory, but that riders often install their own louder mufflers after market.” This was all getting too heady for me. The bikers were making a fourth lap around the square and my coffee had gone cold while I waited for the cup to stop shaking long enough to take a sip. As I drove home I came to my first stop sign. I put the car in neutral and revved the engine. You ever ‘round Poosey, stop by. We may not answer the door but you’ll enjoy the trip.

Keeping domestic abuse survivors safe at home by J ay A sh c rof t, Missouri S ec retary of S tate

Last year, more than 44,000 incidents of domestic or sexual violence were reported to the Missouri State Highway Patrol. What’s worse, the U.S. Department of Justice estimates only half of intimate partner violence is reported to police nationwide, meaning thousands of domestic violence incidents in Missouri go unreported. Ten years ago, in an effort to provide safeguards against this abuse, Missouri implemented an address confidentiality program for survivors. Now we look to the federal government to strengthen these protections. This week I had the privilege of being in Washington, D.C. for a task force of the National Association of Secretaries of State. While there, I held a press conference with U.S. Sen. Roy Blunt and U.S. Rep. Jason Smith, who introduced legislation in Congress that would require the federal government to recognize state ad-

dress confidentiality programs. domestic abuse. It’s an important next Missouri is one of 36 states that admin- step in protecting the thousands of surviisters an address confidentiality program vors, and it makes me very proud that our to help survivors of abuse stay safe.

Survivors and participants in Missouri’s Safe at Home program have credited it as the first peace they’ve known since their abuse — a life-changing protection. Now we look to our federal government to recognize those protections. With passage of federal legislation supporting state address confidentiality programs, all federal agencies would be required to use the confidential address provided by states. It would provide an extra layer of protection to survivors of abuse and help ensure that their residential address can’t be found easily by their abusers. Thank you to Sen. Blunt and Rep. Smith for introducing this bill in Congress. We should encourage our representatives in Washington to support the “Safeguarding Addresses From Emerging at Home Act.”

“Start them high and hope they don’t die,” is how an employee at Insys, a major U.S. opioid manufacturer, described one of his company’s unofficial slogans according to legal documents. That’s horrifying. At a time when drug addictions and overdoses are skyrocketing and Missouri families in communities across our state are being ripped apart, I’m committed to getting to the bottom of what companies like Insys did to fuel this national epidemic and public health crisis. Back in March, I launched an investigation into some of the top opioid manufacturers in our country. I requested information on their sales and marketing practices, how much money they’re giving to outside lobbying groups, internal estimates of the risk of addiction from their drugs, and more. I recently released my first report from this investigation and it contains some shocking information. In one instance, an Insys employee was trying to get approval for a woman named Sarah Fuller to get a powerful opioid. The Insys employee lied by saying she was “with the doctor’s office,” and implied that Sarah needed the opioid because she had ex-

treme pain caused by cancer — the only symptom this drug was approved to treat. In reality Sarah didn’t even have cancer. She eventually got the opioid prescription, and later died after an apparent overdose. I asked Sarah’s mom to share her tragic story with a group of Senators this month. I also invited Jeffrey Buchalter, an Army veteran whose doctor was paid tens of thousands of dollars by Insys and far overprescribed opioids to Jeffrey. I was so proud of them for having the courage to share their harrowing stories. By shining a light on experiences like theirs and exposing the malicious — and perhaps illegal — actions of some of these companies, we can figure out what led to the opioid epidemic we have today and make sure that what happened to Sarah and Jeffrey doesn’t happen to other families in Missouri and across the country. As I continue my investigation, I promise I will do everything I can to expose what companies are doing to fuel this crisis and hold them accountable — and I’ll be sure to keep you updated every step of the way.

Looking ahead to those Autumn leaves, except the raking By Tim Baker, Regional Horticulturist Now that fall has officially started, we can get in the mood for all those autumn activities. Every year we look forward to football games, fall decorations, picking apples, and raking leaves. Well, maybe the last item on the list isn’t one of your favorites, but for the energetic gardener, it offers a great opportunity to pick up materials for use in the garden. The only cost is the time and energy you expend in colTim Baker lecting them. To consider how you can use them in your yard, think about your last walk in the woods. Leaves were performing two important functions which can be adapted to your yard. One is mulching. If the forest had a good, thick leaf cover, you probably noticed that there were few “weeds.” The other function is composting. If you disturbed the leaves, you would have noticed that the bottom layers were decomposing, providing the forest floor with a rich source of organic matter and humus. Leaves do make great materials to use for mulch. One problem is that if they are left whole, they can form a solid mat which can actually keep water from penetrating well, producing increased runoff. That isn’t what you want in your garden or flower beds. The solution is to shred them. Shredded leaves won’t mat together as easily, and the make a great mulch. They allow water to penetrate, reaching the soil. The other benefits of mulch are still working for you, including weed control and moisture conservation. Leaves make great compost material as well. Composting can be a simple process, or it can be more complex, depending on how much effort you want

to put into it, and what materials you have to add to the pile. The least effort, and the slowest, is to simply pile up your leaves, and let natural processes take their course. This will take time, as the leaves will not break down quickly. Shredding the leaves will speed up the process, but it is still slower compared to a compost pile. If you would rather see the finished product more quickly, try your hand at creating a compost pile. There are numerous ways to do this, depending on the materials you have on hand to add to it. Suitable materials include leaves, grass clippings, hay, sawdust, shredded newspaper, wood ashes, or almost any type of plant material you have on hand. It’s best to avoid items which include seeds, at least starting out. Seeds that survive the composting process can lead to a weed problem later, especially if your compost pile didn’t heat up well. Cow or horse manure is also a great item to include if you have access to it. To create a compost pile, its best to add your materials in layers. Start with a layer of organic matter, such as leaves and grass clippings. Then add manure, or sprinkle a little fertilizer. Top it off with about ½ inch of soil. The soil adds numerous microorganisms which help the composting process. Then repeat the process, adding additional layers. If the pile is too dry, you may need to add a little water, but don’t soak the pile. Once the pile starts to work, it will heat up. From time to time, you will need to turn it, mixing up the materials. Eventually you will be rewarded with a rich soil amendment, which will add nutrients and organic matter to your garden or flower bed. If you are starting your first compost pile, you will probably have a lot of questions that I haven’t been able to cover. Fortunately, the answers are available in a series of guide sheets,

Lady Bulldogs garner #1 seed in Class 1, District 12 Tournament at Green City Gallatin’s girls have earned the top seed in this week’s Class 1, District 12 Tournament held at Green City High School. The Lady Bulldogs will face today’s (Wednesday) winner of the Grundy County-Green City game at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. Gallatin is seeking a spot in the Class 1 sectional round for the second straight season. The Lady Bulldogs’ season ended a year ago with a loss to Knox County in a home sectional matchup. Linn County, the #2 District 12

seed, will play the winner of the Meadville vs. Tri-County game at 3 p.m. on Thursday. The district championship game will be held Friday at 4 p.m. The D12 winner will play the D11 champion next Wednesday at a site yet to be determined. Canton and Knox County are the #1 and #2 seeds, respectively. Gallatin will look toward halting a 7-game losing skid that compounded Saturday with four losses in the St. Joseph Benton Tournament. The Lady Bulldogs dropped their first two games in

pool play, 13-4 to Hamilton and 16-1 to host Benton, but came back to play competitive ball with Lafayette and Maryville, despite playing from behind in every game. Moving to play in the Bronze Bracket, Gallatin fell to Lafayette, 5-3, to drop into the bracket’s third place game against Maryville. The Lady Spoofhounds came out on top in that game, 6-5. Lafayette led, 1-0, after the first inning and took a 6-2 lead into the bottom of the fifth, when Galla-

Windy conditions failed to deter GHS golfers Monday at Chillicothe’s Green Hills Golf Course. Sarabeth Michael, Megan Cox, and Kelli Lynch, pictured at right, each qualified from Monday’s Class 1 sectional tournament and will represent the Lady Bulldogs next Monday and Tuesday at the state tournament held in Columbia. Teammate Ally Johnson just missed qualifying by three strokes after placing 23rd on Monday. The top two teams and top 12 individuals, not on qualifying teams, move on to state play. A three-stroke margin also kept Gallatin’s entire team from state qualification. The Lady Bulldogs finished third behind Macon and Mexico, the top teams from District 5, but gained some revenge by finishing ahead of District 6 champion Kirksville. Macon won the top sectional team spot with a total of 370. Mexico golfers combined for 381. Gallatin shot 384 and Kirksville finished fourth with a 392. Jacklyn Maize also competed for the Lady Bulldogs. Macon’s Paige Hawkins shot 7-over par to take the medalist award. Hamilton’s Samantha Cornelius finished two shots back. Gallatin’s top three individuals finished 6th (Cox), 10th (Michael) and 12th (Lynch). tin scored its final run. Aubrey Feiden singled and eventually scored for Gallatin in the fourth. Maelea Coulson led off the fifth with a single and came home on Addison Burns’ double. Karley Salmon walked with two out in the sixth and scored on an error. Maryville plated the deciding run in the sixth with the help of two errors and a game-winning single. The Lady Bulldogs briefly took a 5-4 lead after plating three

runs in the fifth inning and two more in the sixth. Feiden singled, Caragan Baker walked and Salmon doubled in the inning, and all scored with help from three Lady Spoofhound errors. Bethany Bailey reached base on an error in the sixth and advanced on Madalyn Shubert’s single. Bailey would come to the plate on Maryville’s ninth error of the game. McKinley Waters, running for Shubert, scored on Baker’s single.

Gallatin JV outslugs Gilman City in extended softball game Gallatin’s junior varsity girls’ softball team rammed home five runs in the top of the 10th inning Thursday night to beat Gilman City, 13-10, in a marathon contest off the regular schedule. Nine Lady Bulldogs reached base in the 10th, beginning with Hayley Michael, who returned to action in the late innings after clearing concussion protocol. She doubled and scored on an Essie Williamson single. Carli Beck reached first on an error, moving Williamson to second. Both GJV base runners advanced on a wild pitch. Bethany Bailey singled to score Williamson and Beck moved to third. Zoe Bradford was safe on an error that scored Beck and moved Bailey to second. Aubrey Burns singled in Bailey. Carli Hogan singled to load the bases. A walk to Hannah Miller brought Bradford home with the final run. Gilman City plated two runs in the bottom of the 10th on two singles and an error.

The lead moved back and forth in the early innings. The Lady Hawks took a 3-0 after two frames. Gallatin led, 6-4, after the top of the sixth but Gilman regained the advantage with a 3-run sixth. The Lady Bulldogs again took the lead, 8-7, in the top of the seventh but Gilman sent the contest into extra innings with one run in the bottom of the seventh. Gallatin finished with 16 hits, led by Hayley Michael and Carli Beck, with three each. Burns and Maddi Michael each singled twice. Bradford had a triple and Jerilynn Hoover a double. Beck threw 190 pitches for the Lady Bulldogs while going the distance and striking out 11 batters. Gilman’s pitcher, L. Snuffer, also pitched a complete game, throwing 181 pitches and striking out 15 batters. The two teams combined for 14 stolen bases and 24 runners left on base.

Princeton controls GRC by scoring 50-plus points for the sixth time It’s been four years since anyone in the Grand River Conference won a league title by two games or more. The Princeton Tigers are certainly headed in that direction after they distanced themselves still more from the crowd last Friday night. Andrew Smith threw five touchdown passes in the second half, including four in the third quarter, to lead the undefeated Tigers past Gallatin, 58-23, in Friday’s Grand River Conference showdown. The Tigers’ dominance wasn’t immediately apparent as the Bulldogs gave a good accounting for themselves on both sides of the ball in the opening half. Defense kept Gallatin in the game in the first half. Gaven Gray intercepted a Smith pass and that would set up an Adrian Hernandez field goal try late in the first quarter. Hernandez had plenty of distance from 34 yards and Gallatin led, 3-0. Princeton struck back on the ground with a 68-yard scoring run by Tanner Coffman and a two-point conversion early in the second quarter. Smith took advantage of poor tackling on the Tigers’ next series by eluding first, second and third tier defenders on a 38-yard scoring run with 7:10 left in the half. Two minutes later, Bulldog punter Colin Beck put the Tigers in a deep hole with a 53-yard bomb that rolled dead at the Princeton 19. Tight coverage on tight end Blaine Millburn led to a

tipped pass. Bulldog linebacker Cole McBee plucked the ball out of the air and raced 47 yards to the end zone. Gallatin’s PAT failed, but the gap closed to 16-9. Bulldog elation proved shortlived when Smith surged ahead on a quarterback keeper and ran 61 yards all the way down to the Bulldog two-yard line. Smith carried for the TD on the next play, but Graydee Rains stuffed Garrett Enright on the two-point conversion try. Gallatin’s offense showed life with a drive that ate up yards, seconds on the second quarter clock, and ended with a bit of trickery. The Bulldogs moved the ball to the Tiger four-yard line before calling a time out with one second left. Lining up in field goal formation, holder Caleb Boyd took the snap from center, leaped to his feet and outran pursuit to the corner pylon. The extra point kick by Hernandez kept the Bulldogs in the running at 23-16. Princeton established its dominance in the second half by scoring six touchdowns and allowing just one more GHS score that came by way of a McBee to Gray 39-yard pass late in the final period. Gallatin ground out a tough-toget 159 yards of offense on the ground, averaging 3.4 yards a pop. McBee completed 4 of 10 passes for 47 yards. Smith’s totals included 14 carries for 141 yards and two scores, along with 12 of 22 passing for

Gaven Gray’s interception at midﬁeld set up the Bulldogs’ ﬁrst score of the night.

Adrian Hernandez puts his foot into a 34-yard ﬁeld goal late in Friday night’s ﬁrst uarter against Princeton. 227 yards and five TDs. Millburn was on the receiving end of three touchdown passes and finished with 104 yards in catches. The Bulldogs host the Putnam County Midgets on Friday

in their final home game of the regular season. The Midgets defeated Maysville last week, 45-8, for their second win of the season.

Missouri looks to end road losing streak at Kentucky By Benj amin Herrold After a bye week last Saturday, Missouri heads on the road for the first time this season, looking for something positive. The Tigers (1-3, 0-2 in SEC play) travel to the commonwealth of Kentucky to take on the Wildcats (6:30 p.m. on SEC Network). After a rather disastrous opening month to the season, which was peppered with a series of embarrassments at Faurot Field, Missouri simply needs to be competitive in some games. Not long ago, the Tigers were road warriors, a mentally tough, tenacious squad that kept going on the road, often into frenzied environments, and earning wins. Then, quick as a switch flipping, the Tigers were suddenly unable to win away from home. From the start of 2013 through the first road game of 2015, Missouri won 11 straight road games. Then, starting with a road loss at Kentucky, the Tigers have lost nine straight road games. That road drought has shown impressive variety, ranging from the preposterous, offensively bankrupt 9-6 loss at Georgia in 2015 to the defenseoptional 63-37 loss at Tennessee last November. Missouri has back-to-back chances to end the road losing streak, following up the game at Kentucky with a trip Between the Hedges to face Georgia on Oct. 14. Given the beat-down Georgia put on Tennessee on Saturday, the Tigers figure to have a much better shot against

Kentucky. The Wildcats (4-1, 1-1 in SEC) are kind of a typical SEC East squad, capable of playing well but also inconsistent and flawed. But to compete with those middling SEC East schools, you have to achieve a certain standard of mediocrity, and the Tigers haven’t been able to manage that so far. Kentucky has mostly been churning out close wins. The Wildcats haven’t scored 30 in any game, but they’ve won four out of five, all by 11 points or less. Just don’t ask Wildcat fans about the loss. Looking to end a 30-year losing streak to Florida, Kentucky blew a 13-point fourth quarter lead, totally failed to cover a Florida receiver at the goal line to give up the go-ahead touchdown, suffered a crushing holding penalty in the closing seconds, and then had a wouldbe winning field goal fall short. But other than that, I’m sure it was a lovely evening in Lexington. Kentucky recovered to beat Eastern Michigan 24-20 last week. The Wildcats have a pretty good quarterback in Stephen Johnson, who is adept at avoiding interceptions. Running back Benny Snell is also fairly effective, especially if Missouri’s run defense doesn’t get any better. As for when Missouri has the ball, the Tigers dismissed receiver Dimetrios Mason for disciplinary reasons. That doesn’t help, but it’s not like Missouri was lighting up scoreboards with him. The Tigers need to try to find their offensive rhythm from last year, but the last few games have been grim. Kentucky is a big favorite, so expectations are low here. But a feisty, competitive effort from Missouri would be a good start.

Harvest underway ...

Watch for slow moving vehicles

Molly Mott cheers on CMU Eagles

The co-ed cheerleading team and mascots at Central Methodist University are igniting spirit all around CMU’s main campus in Fayette. Molly Mott, from Altamont and a Gallatin R-5 graduate, is a member of the team. Whether they’ve been in the new Eagle Tailgate Zone prior to home football game kickoffs, on the sidelines cheering on the varsity volleyball team, or attending a National Cheerleaders Association camp, they’ve been a busy group. Throughout the semester the cheerleaders, along with mascots Eddie and Ellie the Eagles, gear up for competition that begins at the end of January. The team won the Heart of America Athletic Conference cheer championship for 2015 and 2016. Mott is a senior at CMU currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in child development.

It’s harvest time on Missouri farms and the Missouri Department of Transportation wants to remind motorists to pay extra attention to farm equipment using and crossing state roadways. “Harvest season is a busy time of the year for Missouri’s farm families, and MoDOT wants to make it a safe time of year too,” said MoDOT Highway Safety and Traffic Engineer Nicole Hood. “Farm equipment vehicles can be slow moving, and motorists may be surprised when they come up behind one on a Missouri highway.” Missouri’s 34,000 miles of state roadways pass alongside the fields of thousands of farms throughout the state. Farm equipment vehicles were involved in 582 crashes in the three years of 2014 through 2016. These crashes resulted in 17 people being killed and 199 injured. “Contrary to what some may believe, these crashes do not just occur on county roadways,” Hood said. “While the majority of these crashes occurred on letter routes and county roads, some crashes also occurred on interstates and other high-speed roadways.” Motorists are advised to slow down when approaching farm vehicles. Be patient as the farm vehicles travel to their field entrances. In passing zones, please wait until it is safe and pass at a safe distance and speed.

Music & spirit festival Crossroads Crush at Cameron Oct. 7 The third annual art, music, and spirit festival is gearing up and invites all of Northwest Missouri to the Crossroads Crush, downtown Cameron, from noon to 6 p.m. on Oct. 7, 2017. The Cameron Area Chamber of Commerce has teamed up with the Aiden McVicker Foundation to host the festival featuring artisans, wine makers, distilleries, and musicians from the area. Aiden McVicker is the 16-yearold son of Jamey and Amy McVicker. A charitable fund was established to honor Aiden who was born deaf and blind, has developed neuromuscular scoliosis, and has endured numerous surgeries. This event has come to fruition due to the imagination of many volunteers. This festival is designed to increase the awareness of the organization, promote northwest Missouri talent, local musicians, and artisans, give back to those that support the organization, and create an event to provide for further camaraderie of northwest Missouri residents. To date, the Aiden McVicker Charitable Fund has donated over $100,000 of aid to children with special needs by helping

with medical bills, adaptive equipment, and conference training; as well as high school scholarships to those pursuing a degree in the medical field. Crossroads Crush has numerous artists and craft vendors featuring various fine arts, handcrafted items such as baskets, jewelry, and woodworking; as well as marble making and blacksmithing. Along with competing, vendors will be selling their wares. A juried art show will be conducted with nine different categories; the public will pick the people’s choice awards. In addition, Crossroads Crush will be hosting six wineries and distilleries from northwest Missouri: Grindstone Valley Winery, Of The Earth Distillery, Riverwood Winery, Terre Beau Winery, Black Silo Winery, and Levi Garrison and Sons Brewery. While wandering the grounds, stop by one of the several food vendors and grab some popcorn and lemonade. Or if you need a bit more, try some delicious smoked meats or barbecue; then top it all off with a delicious dessert. Bring a lawn chair and enjoy the local northwest musical entertainment featuring the sounds – Midnight on Vinyl,

Erica McKenzie, Nathan Ice and Center State on the Price Pavilion Stage. For additional fun, the children’s stage will host Laughing Matters, Mic-O-Say Dancers and Will Stuck. Remember, the event is on Oct. 7 at McCorkle Park, downtown Cameron. Admission to Crossroads Crush is free. For those participating in the tasting, there is an advanced ticket fee of $20 that can be purchased at the Cameron Area Chamber of Commerce office, Farmer State Bank locations or First Cameron State Bank locations. Each ticket holder will also receive a souvenir Crossroads Crush glass. Tasting tickets will be $25 at the gate. Please note that booth space is still available. If you have a special art, craft, food specialty or farmer’s market product to share, or if you would like to participate, please contact the Chamber of Commerce at 816632-2005. The committee is looking forward to a fun-filled afternoon! For more information, please call the Cameron Area Chamber of Commerce Office at 816-6322005 or follow on Facebook at www.facebook.com/crossroad-

Get out and stay out...and have two ways about it In advance of Fire Prevention Week 2017, State Fire Marshal Tim Bean is urging Missouri families to plan two escape routes from each room in their home, to teach children how to escape and to conduct family fire drills twice year. “In a fire, a few seconds can mean the difference between life and death,” Fire Marshal Bean said. “Planning paths out in advance, discussing them with children and practicing on a regular basis will make this become second nature, so everyone will know what to do if a smoke alarm sounds in the middle of the night.” Fire Prevention Week runs from Oct. 8 to 14 with the theme “Every Second Counts: Plan Two Ways Out.” Among the safety tips that firefighters and safety advocates are emphasizing are: Draw a map of your home by with all members of your household, marking two exits from each room and a path to the out-

side from each exit. Practice your home fire drill twice a year. Conduct one at night and one during the day with everyone in your home, and practice using different ways out. Teach children how to escape on their own in case parents cannot help them. Make sure the number of your home is clearly marked and easy for the fire department to find. Close doors behind you as you leave – this can slow the spread of smoke, heat, and fire. Once you get outside, go to the family meeting place at a safe distance in front of the home. Never go back inside a burning building. All windows and doors should open easily so they can be used to get outside. Make sure your home has smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and regularly test them to make sure they are working. Working smoke alarms should be on every level of the home, in

The end of Daylight Saving Time, 2 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 5, 2017, when clocks are adjusted to “fall back” an hour, can serve as an easy reminder to change smoke and CO alarm batteries once a year. Fire Prevention Week is recognized annually by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and fire departments and safety agencies across the country. In 2015, there were more than 365,000 home structure fires resulting in more than 2,600 civilian deaths and 11,000 injuries across the nation, according to NFPA. For more than 90 years, fire departments have observed Fire Prevention Week, making it the longest running public health and safety observance on record.

According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the accident happened when Glen Seger, 53, Hamilton, was eastbound on Route D at 190th Street, about five miles north of Hamilton. A horse drawn buggy driven by Abraham Bontrager, 10, Kidder, was also eastbound on Route D, traveling at a slow rate of speed.

Southern gospel quartet at Polo church 4 His Love, a Southern Gospel quartet based in Kansas City, MO, will be appearing at Faith Assembly of God in Polo, on Saturday, October 21, at 6:00 PM. 4 His Love first took shape in the mind of tenor Dan Roberts after the dramatic changes God made in his life as a young man in his 20’s in Lodi, Calif. That first group toured the west coast for 1½ years before Dan followed the call of God to relocate to the Midwest. Settling in the Kansas City area, Dan sang with veteran baritone Bob Smith in a local quartet. The two later joined forces to recreate the ministry of 4 His Love in 2009. The current group represents more than 75 years of experience in Christian music. They have shared the stage with Brian Free & Assurance, Karen Peck & New River, The Dove Brothers, The Nelons, Jeff & Sheri Easter and many others. Together they bring excitement and enthusiasm to every performance without giving up a heart for true personto-person ministry of the gospel. As they share their testimonies and the stories of what God has

done in the lives of 4 His Love, audiences will be challenged to believe for what God WANTS to do in THEIR lives. They’re one of the true up and-coming quartets in Southern Gospel today. There is no admission charge for this concert; a free-will offering will be received. Faith Assembly of God is located at 6680 S 13 Hwy in Polo, Missouri, just north of Casey’s General Store.

Road work The following is a listing of general highway maintenance and construction work in Daviess County planned by the Missouri Department of Transportation: Route 6 – Milling and pothole patching, Oct. 2 – 6 and Route 6 – Pavement repair from Route 13 to Route DD, Oct. 2 – 6.

Gallatin’s David Roll bids goodbye to Harvey, Irma and Maria — says thanks for the memories

David Roll, the Emergency Management Director for Daviess County, has returned from a 28 day hurricane deployment, with most of his team’s assignments in Texas and Florida. During that time, he missed his daughter Briar’s coronation at the Homecoming game on Sept. 22 and also celebrated his birthday away from home and loved ones. But life is full of the unexpected, as everyone knows, he noted on his Facebook post, and his wife Laurie and his daughter Briar have been very supportive. “Both of them have told me they are proud of what I am doing which means the world to me,” David says. David served as a paramedic for 24 years and is currently employed full-time as a paramedic with American Medical Re-

our first good views of storm damage,” he says. “Power was still out in parts of the city, tree damage and building damage all around. It was akin to a strong Missouri thunderstorm. With traffic lights out, they have stop signs up at all the main intersections, turning them into four-way stops. Signs up everywhere to NOT drink the water.” David reported that during their travels between hospitals the team saw cotton fields unpicked and picked in bales, oil wells pumping, longhorns, raging flooded rivers and creeks, and flooded fields. “Wow, is it flat further south,” he noted. “I will admit I am seeing parts of Texas I would never otherwise see. People have been so supportive, kind, so many thanks and hand shakes. You should see how big their eyes

He works out of the Parkville station. He also serves as a paramedic with the Community Ambulance District of Daviess County. On Monday, Aug. 28, David headed to Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas, to help with the Hurricane Harvey Relief effort. American Medical Response recruited him for a disaster strike team consisting of people from Arizona and Abbott EMS (St. Louis). David was sent to El Campo Memorial Hospital on Thursday morning, Aug. 31, for the team’s first assignment. Next they traveled to Gonzales Hospital for their first patient, whom they transported to another hospital about an hour away. Friday, Sept. 1, they returned to their base in San Antonio.

David arrived in San Antonio, Texas, on Sept. 1. By then, his FEMA/American Medical Response Strike Team had performed a total of six transports, moving patients from hospitals to higher level of care hospitals and covered at least 1,000 miles since arrival. David’s partner was Evan Fishman from Arizona. “In Victoria, Texas, we saw

widen when they find out where we are from. Genuinely nice people everywhere we go.”

Sept. 6, the team was on the move. They left San Antonio and traveled to the NRG Stadium in Houston. The stadium is home of the National Football League’s Houston Texans, the Texas Bowl, and the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. The team was demobilized from Hurricane Harvey and remobilized for Hurricane Irma. David had a new partner, Dean Busch, an EMT from the former Strike Team 70. They were now a part of Strike Team 62.

Sept. 7, the team went through Orange, Texas, where some roads were still flooded from Hurricane Harvey with water reaching Interstate 10. They entered Louisiana on Sept. 7, and then on into Mississippi. Across Mississippi and into Alabama and arrived in the Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University to hunker down for the storm. Sept. 9, David wrote that the team was in Tallahassee, Fla., and had been there for two days, facing some issues with ambulance break downs. Along with his new partner, David had a new Strike Team Leader, and

new Strike Team. They were now Strike Team 14. The new team was still associated with people from the Arizona teams that came over to Harvey. They weathered out the storm at Florida A&M University.

Sept. 11, they loaded up and headed to Miami. They arrived Sept. 12. Sept. 13, they headed to Labelle, Fla. Sept. 14 they were assigned to relieve local EMS. David wrote: “Many of the folks here have been on duty for 120 plus hours. That’s five days. They have not been home, they have not seen their families, and yet they are so close. They are locals helping locals and now it is our turn to help them. Their gratitude, their tears, the wash of relief over their souls is all that we need in thanks.” He noted there was a lot of damage in the rural community. Boil orders still stood, power was spotty at best, lots of home and tree damage, and waters rising in the rivers and lakes. Oranges and sugar cane are their primary economy and 85% of those crops had been damaged, along with 60% of the homes. David wrote: “Snakes (Cottonmouths), alligators, and people are real threats here. Our heads will be swiveling all around to keep us safe. Having said that, the Hendry County EMS command and crews have been fantastic. They are providing a staff member to help get us to the scene. Once there, we take it from there. Drop off times at the emergency rooms can be a couple of hours just waiting for

a room. To say this has been an adventure is an understatement. Our team has been holding well together.”

Sept. 16 was the team’s first full 24 hours of running 911 for Hendry County EMS. The first 12 hours was with Montura Fire running a water rescue and a cardiac. That evening they posted out of Clewiston and ran an Assault (multi patient) and a respiratory. Yes, the iron bracelets came out -- just like being at home. Sept. 18, the team said goodbye to Hendry County Public Safety/EMS, Montura Volunteer Fire Department, and Clewiston Fire Department. Sept. 18, the team arrived at Lehigh Acres, and then on to Boca Raton. Sept. 20, the team was given a

new mission which was very similar to the one from almost two weeks earlier, when they ended up in Miami. They were now at the Florida International University supporting the evacuees that were housed there on campus. They also become a new Strike Team, M70, of five active and two Reserve units.

Sept. 24, David repacked and was ready to come home and soon landed in Kansas City. “It feels so good to be home,” David says. “While I enjoyed my time on deployment and welcomed the challenges, our job was done, our portion complete, and it was time to come home. To those taking on the next stages of recovery and rebuilding, I wish them God’s speed, helping hands, and grace. Goodbye Harvey, Irma, and Maria. Thanks for the memories!”

the Bench

Trial procedures for a criminal proceeding b y J ud ge Brent E lliott Following the reading of some preliminary instructions by the judge, the State’s attorney (prosecutor) makes what is called an opening statement outlining what she/he believes the evidence will be. The defendant’s attorney is then entitled to make an opening statement outlining what they believe the evidence to be. However, the defendant may reserve opening statement until the conclusion of the State’s case. Next comes the evidentiary phase of the trial. By law, all defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty. This means the State bears the “burden of proof.” The prosecutor must convince all members of the jury the defendant is guilty

beyond a “reasonable doubt.” For many years it was left to the jurors to determine what constituted reasonable doubt. Several years ago Missouri adopted the following definition that is provided to the jury as an instruction: “A reasonable doubt is a doubt based upon reason and common sense after careful and impartial consideration of all the evidence in the case. Proof beyond a reasonable doubt is proof that leaves you firmly convinced of the defendant’s guilt. The law does not require proof that overcomes every possible doubt. If, after your consideration of all the evidence, you are firmly convinced that the defendant is guilty of the crime charged, you will find him guilty. If you are not so convinced, you must give him the benefit of the doubt and find him not guilty.” Since the State has the burden of proof, they are required to present evidence first. They

must call and question their witnesses, and counsel for the defendant is afforded the opportunity to “cross-examine” each witness. When the State completes its case in chief, the prosecutor will “rest” their case. The Court will then recess and order the jury to exit the courtroom while various motions are argued and ruled upon. As is the case at every recess, the judge will admonish the jury not to discuss the case amongst themselves or with anyone else until it is given to them to fully decide. They are also instructed not to consult with any other sources (i.e., newspapers, internet, Facebook, etc) regarding any facet of the case. E d itor’ s N ote: C irc u it J u d g e R .

missioners were also notified there is an issue with the operation of the west door of the courthouse. They will address both issues to see what repairs need to be done. Tony Figg notified the commissioners that some new electrical connections need to be added so that work on the wiring project can be completed. David Cox will notify a contractor. Todd Steel, Smithfield Farms, met with the commissioners regarding fencing and brush concerns in northern Daviess County. David Cox made a motion to keep $50 in reserve of the donations received for the Northwest Commissioners meeting, pay the expenses, and then pay the remaining amount to Jayla Smith for the dinner; Wayne Uthe seconded. Motion passed. Howe Co. presented a bill for final expenses on the Quick Avenue project. It was decided to table the issue until additional funds are obtained. The commission approved two road and bridge employees to attend a free training and safety seminar at Springfield in December. In the afternoon the commissioners reviewed roads, bridges and brush in Jackson, Union, Sheridan and Colfax townships. The meeting adjourned at 4 p.m. This information is taken from the minutes of the Sept. 27, 2017, meeting of the Daviess County Commission. David Cox, first district commissioner, and Wayne Uthe, second district commissioner, were present. Randy Sims, presiding commissioner, was absent. Minutes were approved and bills were authorized.
