MADISON - Keep an eye out for a list of road projects happening around the city of Madison in 2024 that might impact your commutes and regular travels around town. The first project to note is the Hardiman Road roundabout. City officials say the $1.5 million project is currently sixty-five percent complete and is being undertaken by the developer of the adjacent property with reimbursements from the city. The project connects Hardiman Road and the new Madison Branch Boulevard and is in preparation for future neighborhoods and the future elementary school that will be located on Madison Branch Boulevard. Another roundabout is shaping up in the city at the intersection of Huntsville-Brownsferry & Burgreen Roads. The city estimates a total budget of $1.8 million and plans to start construction during the summer to accommodate school traffic. The hope is that the roundabout, once completed, will aid the large amount of school traffic that comes through the area. “The goal is to bid this in of March 2024, constructing this in the summer, again, doing everything we can to minimize the impact on all of the traffic that we know schools bring to that intersection, and boy, won’t that make a big difference in that area,” stated Mayor Paul Finley about the project at the January 24 work session. The city is also looking to minimize obstruction to school traffic with the Mill Road Erosion Mitigation project by starting construction in the summer. The project is still in the design phase. The project is estimated to cost a total of $3 million. Two other intersections are set to receive traffic and pedestrian signal upgrades. Hughes Road & Portal Road will be receiving another intersection for easier access to the city’s greenway system from nearby neighborhoods, and Wall Triana and Gillespie are awaiting work to begin to install a new traffic light.

changes in rural communities during the 20th Century. Across America, the vast majority of the U.S. landscape remains rural with only 3.5 percent of the landmass considered urban. Since 1900, the percentage of Americans living in rural areas dropped from 60 percent to 17 percent. Triana itself saw a growth of 482.7 percent between the 2010 and 2020 censuses, making the community a perfect location for this exhibit that looks at that remarkable societal change and how rural Americans responded. “‘Crossroads’ allows us to reflect on Triana’s history, present and future. We’re excited to explore what the future may hold for our community,” Betty Williams with Triana Historical Society said. “We want to convene conversations about what makes our community unique and have developed local exhibitions and public programs to complement the Smithsonian exhibition.” “Specifically, we look forward to spotlighting significant figures in the community to coincide with Black History Month,” Williams said. “Local schools and home-schooling organizations are encouraged to schedule field trips during the six weeks that the exhibit is in Triana.” Designed for smalltown museums, libraries and cultural groups, the
Crossroads exhibit will serve as a community meeting place for conversations. With the support and guidance of state humanities councils, these towns will develop complementary exhibits, host public programs and promote educational initiatives to raise people’s understanding of their own history. In addition, “Considering Crossroads,” a workshop that explores rural Alabama’s changes, will be conducted on Feb. 23 from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at St. Paul Triana United Methodist Church. Open to the public, the one-day workshop will include a tour for “Crossroads: Change in Rural America.” The workshop’s presenting scholars will be poets Tina Mozelle Braziel and Jim Braziel, University of Alabama at Birmingham; historian Dr. Julia Brock, University of Alabama; and teaching artist Dr. Allison Upshaw, Stillman College. Participating educators will receive a $100 stipend and five professional development credits.

Ashley Carter: The long goodbye By ASHLEY CARTER www.1819News.com
I have been caring for my father-in-law for the past two years as he battled with dementia, Alzheimer’s disease and prostate cancer. Caring for a loved one, especially my father-inlaw, was a journey marked by a host of mixed emotions. Amid the challenges, a unique bond began to form between us, woven through shared memories and a deeper understanding of one another. This bond was stronger than any we ever shared and included laughter, tears and quiet moments. Laughter became a lifeline, breaking through the fog of his forgetfulness. Despite the struggles, there were moments of pure happiness that connected us beyond the limitations of his memory. Our shared laughs were a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, finding light even in the hardest and darkest of times almost every day. Yet, for every burst of laughter, there were also tears shed in silence. Witnessing the disappearance of someone’s identity, the fading recollections of a once vibrant life, brings profound sadness. The tears weren’t just a release of personal grief, either, but a shared mourning for the fragments of a past slipping away. The quiet times, however, were the most challeng-
ing. The hushed moments were filled with a sense of loss, a constant reminder of the person my fatherin-law used to be. In the silence, the weight of the situation pressed against our hearts, leaving us grappling with the harsh reality of dementia/Alzheimer’s relentless progression. Yet, within that quiet, there existed a different kind of connection – a silent language of understanding. It was in those moments that the depth of our bond was strengthened. The unspoken acknowledgment of shared pain created a bridge, allowing us to navigate the turbulent waters of his diminishing world. Caring for a loved one with dementia is a journey of contradictions. You find joy amid sorrow, laughter amid tears and connection amid solitude. Such contradictions are a testament to the strength of human resilience and the enduring power of love that persists even in the face of memory’s cruel erosion. The moments we shared are ones that I wouldn’t trade for anything in this world and honestly I would give anything to go back and have just a few more. Though we miss my father-in-law very much, his suffering has ended. He is no longer fighting the disease and has gone on to be in Heaven with Jesus, rejoicing every day. See CARING Page 7A
Service to You is Our First Consideration
School choice: Is there really choice? By DR. ED NICHOLS Superintendent of Madison City Schools In the next few weeks, you’re going to hear a great deal from the Governor and the Alabama Legislature about School Choice. There will be catch phrases like parents deserve a choice and you should get to choose. Don’t be fooled by these terms because school choice does not mean every parent can get money and take their child to any school they choose. It means that if you can pay the additional tuition, provide transportation and don’t have students with challenges like special education, English Language Learners, and other areas, then you might get to choose if the school chooses you. In fact, what school choice will become is NIL (similar to Name Image Likeness rights in college sports) for a few. For most it will have no impact and your locally underfunded school district will still face the everyday challenges created by the Alabama Legislature. Alabama School districts spend countless dollars of local money each year that the state does not
fully fund. This includes areas such as transportation, special education, school nurses, school safety, EL learners and so much more. A “School Choice” plan could also mean that the public’s money will go to institutions that are not required to meet the accountability expectation of the Alabama Legislature. Currently, such legislatively-imposed requirements are the Literacy Act and Numeracy Act, ACAP and ACT testing, and making sure all schools get a grade card from the state so that public funds for education are accountable. It is only fair that any school receiving public funds plays by the rules created by the Legislature. For instance, all K-3rd grade programs receiving public funds should meet the requirements and paperwork of the Alabama Literacy Act. If private schools and other entities receiving these funds don’t have to meet these standards, is that fair? My hope is that the members of the Legislature will have the same backbone as the ones in Texas. Governor Abbott, like Governor Ivey, pushed School Choice for eight months, but
Dr. Ed Nichols
when it came to a vote of the Texas legislators, they said no this isn’t right and it’s not fair. I hope public school parents and teachers in Alabama reach out and make their voices heard like the parents and teachers did in Texas. Come on Alabama, stand up like Texas and say NO!

In the early 1990s and prior, Alabama’s top industry was textiles, which was evidenced by the lowwage sock mills that peppered the state along with larger facilities making blue jeans, athletic wear, and other apparel items. But in 1993, Mercedes shocked the world and launched a transformation that continues to benefit our state today when it announced intentions to construct a $350 million plant in Vance, Alabama, to manufacture its new M-Class SUV automobile. Suppliers needed to make the vehicle’s components soon located here, and once the wisdom of Mer-
cedes’ decision became apparent, companies like Mazda Toyota, Honda, and Hyundai built facilities in Alabama. Those developments came at the perfect time because Alabama’s textile industry largely evaporated soon after when free trade agreements negotiated during that era sent thousands of our jobs to Mexico, China, and other low-wage nations. Like layer upon layer of building blocks, the firm foundation that our success in the automotive arena provided later allowed Alabama to build a world-class aerospace sector by attracting Boeing, Airbus, Lockheed Martin, Sikorsky, and the many high-tech firms in the Tennessee Valley. Industrial partners like Austal
USA are also bringing jobs and opportunity to the Gulf Coast region by building the next generation of naval warships in the Yellowhammer State. But you may ask what prompted Mercedes to make that first bold decision to locate here more than 30 years ago. Aside from the industrial incentives that all competing states offered, I believe that three factors unique to Alabama drew the automotive giant’s attention — an eager and trainable workforce with a work ethic unparalleled anywhere in the nation, our low cost and business-friendly economic climate, and the lack of labor union activity and participation. This combination continues to See ALABAMA STRONG Page 8B

MY LIFE AS A HOBBY
Valentine’s Day, Bottoms Up! By JOE HOBBY Columnist
It was Valentine’s Day 1973 and I had a big problem. What do I get my girlfriend? This was our first V-Day together, so there was certainly an expectation to give her a nice gift. The second part of the problem involved finances. Since I was in college, I was living like so many other students do - in poverty. I spent each summer working long hours at a steel mill and saving every dime to use on my education. If I managed my money properly, it would get me to December. That’s when my Dad would do my taxes. A fast turnaround on my refund check meant I would have enough cash to last ‘til the end of the school year. So, February was always a little iffy for me. Still, I had been dating Carol about six months, and I had to come up with something good. A syrupy card just wasn’t gonna do. And roses were out of the question - the florists had already jacked the price of them so high that I would need a student loan to cover the purchase. On February 13, I felt the pressure building as I walked thru the Woolco store with all the other procrastinating men. Each one of us was pray-
ing for divine inspiration to pop out from a shelf. I crossed thru the pet supply section on my way to the toy department where I would buy her a teddy bear - as cliche as it was. Then I saw the solution to my dilemma right between the dog chews and the kitty litter. It was personal, it was novel, and it would remind her of me whenever she looked at it. A goldfish! In a matter of minutes, I bought a fish, the bowl, a package of multi-colored rocks, and a small container of food. A bit of quick prep I had what was going to be a great Valentine’s Day present. The next day I gave the gift to Carol. She absolutely loved it! “You don’t know this, but my favorite character in my favorite movie is Cleo, the little fish in Pinocchio!”, she gushed. “I’m going to name it Cleo.” Then she gave me a hug and a quick kiss and said, “I’m going to take it up to my dorm room.” Then she gave me a wink, and continued. “Pick me up in about an hour, and I’ll give you your gift.” I basked in the afterglow as I drove back to the apartment. “Yes, indeed,” I thought. “This is going to be a very good Valentine’s Day for the kid.” I spend the next hour grooming myself properly, even adding an extra splash of Jade East coSee HOBBY Page 7A
Chocolate Ganache This delicious treat is relatively easy to make and is a perfect for Valentine’s Day
By STAFF REPORTS news@themadisonrecord.com MADISON -Chocolate lovers rejoice come Valentine’s Day. It seems everywhere you look there are rich, chocolately treats just waiting to be devoured. Here is one you can make at home. Individuals who fancy themselves adventurous in the kitchen may want to consider homemade chocolate recipes to entice their romantic partners. Ganache, an indulgent chocolate creation, may seem like it requires a master class in chocolate making to create. However, ganache is simpler to create than chocolate lovers may think. According to the chocolate experts at Coeur de Xocolat, there are various origin stories for ganache. In one such story, French
chef Georges Auguste Escoffier, who would become the creator of chocolate truffles, had his apprentice making pastry cream. That apprentice accidentally spilled hot cream into a bowl of expensive chopped chocolate. Escoffier yelled “ganache,” a derogatory term meaning “fool,” at the apprentice. But when Escoffier grabbed the bowl and began to stir it, he noticed an emulsion started to form and the cream and chocolate created a silky sauce that could be used for coating or glazing. When the mixture cooled and hardened, it had a paste-like texture that could form balls. Escoffier coated the balls in cocoa powder and noticed they resembled mushroom truffles. Hence, chocolate truffles were born, as was delicious ganache.
Ganache is relatively easy to make. Enjoy this version, courtesy of Martha Stewart kitchens. Ganache Makes 1 1/2 cups • 8 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate • 1 cup heavy cream • 1/8 teaspoon coarse salt Coarsely chop the chocolate and place in a heat-proof bowl. Bring cream just to a boil over medium-high heat. Pour over the chocolate, and add salt. Let stand for 10 minutes (don’t stir - doing so will cool the ganache too quickly, making it grainy). Stir with a whisk until smooth and shiny to break up any pieces and emulsify the cream and chocolate. See RECIPE Page 7A

MADISON – At its inaugural Open House, Madison Area Lions Club will exhibit project results as a service organization since 2020. Club members hope residents will stop by and enjoy appetizers while browsing tables of photos and memorabilia of charitable work. Open House on Feb. 13 at Dublin Park, Meeting Room A will run from 5:30 to 6:45 p.m. Alabama Lions recognized the Madison club for achievements with the 2021-2022 “Outstanding Club of the Year Award.” “The Open House will celebrate three years of service to our local communities,” Lions President
Cheryl Emich said. “We hope everyone will stop by to see some of the projects we provide — from eye screening in local daycare centers and schools to collecting supplies for school nurses.” The local club is affiliated with Lions Clubs International, the world’s largest community service organization with more than 1.4 million members in approximately 45,000 clubs in 205 countries and geographical areas worldwide. Since 1917, Lions clubs have aided the blind and visually impaired and strongly committed to serving children and the public. One of Lions’ signature programs is “Vision for Learning,” involving eye-screening events in local daycares and schools. “Since we started the Vision for Learning Program, we’ve
screened over 275 children,” Lions Vision Coordinator Tony Villamil said. “If a child doesn’t have resources for an eye exam and eyeglasses, the club will help.” “Club members believe the best way to help a child to learn is to ensure they can fully participate in classroom activities,” Villamil said. “Many children don’t realize they’re having vision issues. Our screening helps identify vision problems early so the child can receive an optometrist or ophthalmologist’s evaluation.” The club has partnered with several area optometrists/ophthalmologists to provide two monthly screenings to children in need, including Madison City Schools and See LIONS CLUB Page 8B

years. Fact or Fiction? There are many people in Alabama and beyond that claim to have encountered a black panther. However, Wesley Anderson, an Alabama Extension wildlife specialist, said when specifically referring to Puma concolor — the
species most commonly referred to as panthers — there is no such thing as a black panther. “Melanistic Puma concolor, meaning those that are black or much darker than their typical tawny color, have not been recorded anywhere,” Anderson said. See PANTHER Page 7A

NORTH ALABAMA - From high-school mascots to the Marvel Universe, black panthers have appeared in many forms in today’s culture. However, is this big cat real or just an illustrated piece of fiction? Alabama Cooperative Extension System wildlife experts are here to help uncover yet another big-cat mystery. There are many names that people use to refer to the animal scientifically known as Puma concolor. These names include panther, mountain lion, cougar, puma, mountain devil, mountain screamer, catamount and others. Historically, panthers were in Alabama. However, Alabama Extension experts revealed in “Mountain Lions: Alabama’s Big-Cat Mystery” that there has yet to be a reliable verification in almost 70

logne. We would probably go to Taco Bell for supper - after all, it was nineteen cent burrito night. Then I would get my present! I did a quick clean out of my Camaro, which meant I gathered up all the old Taco Bell wrappers and tossed them in the garbage. Next it was off to pick up Carol. I was smirking all the way over to the dorm thinking to myself, “Pinocchio - what a stroke of luck this was.” Instead, when Carol got in my car, I got a Valentine’s Day surprise that was nothing like I’d hoped for. She shut the door and burst into tears. “You’re not gonna believe what just happened,” she bawled. “I had taken Cleo and put him in the window. Then I called everybody in to see the sweet gift that you gave me. There were about 10 people were in my room talking about how cute he was. And that’s when Cleo flipped up and floated to the top of the bowl. At first I thought he was doing a trick. But he never moved again. Cleo‘s dead!” “Oh, I’m so sorry”, I said in as a sympathetic tone as I could muster. All the

while I’m thinking, “That stupid goldfish has ruined it for me!” “What did you do with him?” I asked. “Well, we had a little memorial service and then I flushed him down the toilet.” More bad news. There went my chance for a seventy-nine-cent refund on a dead goldfish. That would’ve bought four nineteen-cent burritos. The mood was somber at Taco Bell. Despite my efforts, I couldn’t cheer her up. Finally, I gave up and took her back to the dorm. “Happy Valentine’s Day”, she said. Then she kissed me on the cheek and pulled out my gift from her purse. It was a syrupy card. Guys, take my advice. If it’s February 13 and you’re in Walmart to try to find a last-minute Valentine’s Day gift, keep walking past the pet department until you get to the toys. You can’t kill a teddy bear.

Melanin is a substance in living organism that is responsible for producing the pigmentation of hair, feathers, eyes and skin. The more melanin an organism has, the darker these featured will appear. In genetic lines that contain a lot of melanin, the organisms will be black. “Melanism is determined by genetics, so if the right mutation occurs, a black panther could exist, but there’s currently no scientific evidence that says they do exist,” Anderson said. Other Big Cats While panthers do not have a melanistic line of genetics, there are many other big cats that do. These are the animals that people may incorrectly referred to as black panthers. Anderson said leopards and jaguars are two common ones. “Simply put, a black panther in Africa or Asia is probably a melanistic leopard,” Anderson said. “If people in North America or South America say they have seen a black panther, it is probably a melanistic jaguar or — if they are north of the United States-Mexico border — more likely, a misidentified animal.” While melanistic jaguars do exist in North America, people in Alabama shouldn’t get their hopes up about seeing one. “While rare, jaguars have been sighted along the Arizona-Mexico border,” Anderson said. “So, conceivably, there could be one observed in other parts of the U.S. someday. Historically, this species was seen as far east as Louisiana and as far north as Colorado but has never been documented in Alabama.” What are people seeing? If it is not a panther or a jaguar, then what is it that people in Alabama are seeing? Mark Smith, an Alabama Extension wildlife specialist, said a large black cat could be a bobcat, Alabama’s largest native cat. “Bobcats occur in large numbers throughout Alabama and the southeastern U.S.,” Smith said. “Melanistic bobcats have been recorded, but bobcats are much smaller than panthers are, weighing about 15 to 35 pounds. They also have a short 4- to 8-inch tail and a spotted coat.” Anderson said there have been re-
ports of jaguarundi sightings in parts of the state. While these cats are found in Arizona and Texas and can have a dark coloration, none of the Alabama reports have been substantiated. “Like the bobcat, the jaguarundi is considerably smaller than panthers — weighing in at only about 15 pounds,” Anderson said. Alabama has a larger native mammal that could be what people are seeing: the black bear. Commonly seen in northeast and southwest Alabama, black bear populations have increased over the last several years. Also, there are far more common animals that people may misidentify as panthers. “A black-panther sighting could be a black dog, such as a Labrador Retriever, or a large domesticated black cat,” said Todd Steury, an associate professor in the Auburn University College of Forestry, Wildlife and Environment. How could people confuse any of these animals with a panther? Smith said to remember that certain conditions can affect what people see. “Many pictures and videos of supposed panther sightings turn out to be feral cats, once the animal’s size is compared to other objects in the background,” Smith said. “Also, if seen at the right angle or under poor lighting conditions, a relatively common animal can start to take the shape of something completely different.” More Information At the end of the day, Anderson said black-panther sightings in the state are almost certainly either a melanistic bobcat, a black bear or a black domestic cat or dog. While this may not be the cool storyline as depicted in movies and comic books, it is always fun to discover more information about the wildlife in Alabama.

Sparkman bowling teams finish second, third in state tournament By BOB LABBE bob@themadisonrecord.com MOBILE - Both the Sparkman girls and boys teams finished among the top four at the AHSAA Class 6A/7A Bowling State Tournament with the Lady Senators finishing runner-up and the boys taking third. Sparkman head coach Lisa Ivey, who prior to the tournament announced her retirement from the program after taking over the reins of the bowling team in 2016, saw several of her individual bowlers post excellent State Tournament performances led by state runner-up Zacary Swaim.
In boys team competition, eventual state champion Spain Park (20-2) pulled out a 4-3 win over the defending state champion Senators winning the final and deciding game 225-192 in the semi-final match. Sparkman shocked the Jags in game six winning 257-182 to force game seven in the best-of-seven series. Both teams combined to knock down 2,627 pins.

GEORGE WASHINGTON’S BIRTHDAY
Did you know that the official name of Presidents Day, which is celebrated yearly on the third Monday in February, is actually “George Washington’s Birthday”? The day began as a day to honor George Washington and now honors all 45 of the American Presidents, current and past. The holiday began in Washington, D.C. in 1879. In 1885, President Arthur made it an official Federal holiday for the entire Country. George Washington was actually born on February 22, 1732, in Westmoreland, Virginia. He grew up on his father’s plantation. It was once said that as a young man he chopped down one of his father’s cherry trees; when asked by his father if he had committed the act, he replied “Yes, I cannot tell a lie.” Although this story may not have happened, Washington was well-renowned for his good morals and character. He married his wife, Martha, on January 6, 1759. As a young adult, he worked as a land surveyor before beginning his military career. He commanded the Continental Army through the Revolutionary War, and on April 30, 1789, he took the Oath of Office and was sworn in as the first President of the United States. Known as the “Father of our Country,” many of Washington’s ideals still influence who the United States is as a Country today. President Washington held office for only two terms--from 1789 to 1797. He helped to pick the sight of the White House which has been home to all of the American Presidents, but him. This year we will celebrate Washington and all the Presidents on Monday February 21.

The Lady Patriots closed out the regular season firing on all cylinders with a lopsided senior night. “I was very pleased with the effort from all of our girls [last Friday] and definitely Sloan Williams,” Bob Jones head coach Jazmine Carr said. “I know the second half she had really good runs when we were fortunately able to get a lot of good steals and she sprints the court really well.” The sophomore Williams powered the Lady Patriots with her 16-point night while the senior Zamyra Goode finished with 11 in the victory.

MADISON - The Bob Jones boys basketball team saw an opportunity to take down Grissom escape its grasp last Friday night at home as the Patriots fell 39-32. Senior night offered a tightly contested affair that was heavy on the defense, but Bob Jones was doomed by its inability to make key shots down the stretch. Grissom haunted the Patriots with its dynamic one-two punch offensive attack from the seniors Justin McCall with 19 and Brendan Martin with 12 points in the road win for the Tigers. Grissom literally didn’t even have a player not named McCall or Martin score a point until midway through the third quarter. Bob Jones was led by the junior Kaden Rickard who ended up with 16 in the defeat. The Tigers took an early lead 5-0 with shots by Martin and then a 3-ball by McCall, but a field goal by Rickard that was followed by a clutch 3-point swish by the Bob Jones senior Zavier Bates that knotted the game at 5-5 at the 5:57 mark. Grissom’s Martin and McCall continued to trade points with Bob

Jones’ Rickard as the Tigers clung to a 13-10 edge at the end of the first quarter. The second quarter was defined by defense as the teams combined to score just 12 points in the minutes remaining before halftime. Patriots junior Jaylen England opened the second quarter with a 3-point shot to tie the game at 13-13. Bob Jones even took the lead with back-to-back field goals by sophomore Jacob Parks and the junior Eric Marrow to make it 17-14 Patriots with 2:43 to go before the break. That momentary lead was quickly dashed when Martin made a free throw and McCall hit a 3-point shot with 50 seconds on the clock to push Grissom out front at 18-17 at the half. Rickard grabbed the lead back for Bob Jones early in the third quarter at 19-18 only to have it taken away by McCall with a field goal to make it 2019 Tigers with 5:56 on the clock. Grissom began to pull away from the Patriots in the third quarter by drawing fouls and making important shots from the charity stripe. With 22 seconds remaining in the third quarter, MJ Robinson made a field goal in the paint to cut into the Grissom advantage at 31-25 with one quarter to play. Bob Jones was not finished yet as
the Tigers began to crack under the intense defensive pressure utilized by the hungry Patriots who could taste a comeback victory. Bob Jones needed a big basket to find another gear and it appeared that it might have that when Rickard drained a massive 3-point shot from deep in the corner to pull the Patriots within three points trailing 33-30 with 5:11 to go. The Patriots were doing all the right things defensively and from a ball control standpoint to stay in the game, but the perimeter shooting was not there when it mattered most. The ball clanked harmlessly off the rim time after time as the clock sunk toward nothingness. Grissom hit its foul shots in the final minute to make the game look like it wasn’t as close as it was. By the time of this publication, Bob Jones will have played a Tuesday 7A Area 8 semifinal game against Austin. The boys area tournament is at Austin and if Bob Jones won on Tuesday, the Patriots will face the winner of the Florence vs James Clemens game that also took place on Tuesday. The area championship game is slated for Thursday at 7 p.m. at Austin High School.

Aaliyah Troupe joined the party as Goode drained a 3-ball later on that was followed up by Bone and Fields to round out the quarter. It was like playing Bob Jones points bingo as the game marched into the second quarter as Williams got on the scoreboard with her speed and shiftiness in transition. Goode’s 3-point bucket with 40 seconds remaining before halftime made it 46-14 at the break. The third quarter was the Sloan Williams show as the Lady Patriot sophomore went on an impressive run of seven straight points. Williams nailed a 3-ball and then a Grissom turnover led to Williams finding the basketball once more for another two points.
Another steal by Bob Jones sent Williams steaking down the court for an easy layup to make it 55-16 with 4:29 on the clock. Despite her chest heaving slightly from all the running, Williams was showing no signs of letting up on the woeful Lady Tigers. It was 59-22 by the end of the third quarter and the remainder of this contest was academic as Williams and Bob Jones waltzed toward the area tournament with a menacing gait. By the time of this publication, the Lady Patriots will have already played a Monday home matchup with Austin in the Girls 7A Area 8 semifinals. If Bob Jones got past Austin two days ago, it will face the winner of the other semifinal game on Monday between Florence and James Clemens. The championship round game is slated for today at 6 p.m. at Bob Jones High School.

Senior center members launch Arise2Read at Harvest elementary By GREGG PARKER gregg@themadisonrecord.com
MADISON - As Madison Senior Center or MSC memberships continue to increase, so does their programming. “Our programs are not just for our members but (these opportunities are) also for the people of our community,” MSC Program Coordinator Rachael Burrus said. MSC leaders have launched a new Intergenerational Program or IGP that is named Arise2Read or A2R. Arise2Read allows volunteers to visit local elementary schools to work with second-grade students who are lagging in study with their reading curriculum. Each student receives one-on-one assistance in a 30-minute period, every Monday and Friday. Willowbrook Baptist Church sponsors and administers Arise2Read locally and recruits, trains and performs background checks for all volunteers, along with providing all reading materials. Burrus invited Kenny Watts, A2R Volunteer Coordinator at Harvest elementary, to give a 20-minute presentation at MSC. “I was hoping to add one or two volunteers, but I was pleasantly surprised when 23 seniors, several of whom are former educators, signed up to volunteer,” Watts said. “Our members have a lot of love to offer and are
ready to serve their local community,” Burrus said. “I’m excited, not only for our members, but for the students of Harvest elementary. Both groups are in for a blessing.” “There is great value in the program as teachers and volunteers see students greatly improving within a month,” Watts said. George Wallace, MSC member and A2R volunteer, has been volunteering for two years. “I love it. By the second visit, students remembered my name and are excited to begin reading. It makes my day,” Wallace said. With A2R serving at 10 campuses in Huntsville City Schools and Madison County Schools, the goal is to expand to Madison City Schools. For more information about the A2R program, call Burrus at 256-461-1638. IGP is a service that allows older and younger generations to share talents and resources that benefit each other in an organized event. The mission of Madison Senior Center is to provide health, wellness education, cultural, recreational and fun programs and services to senior adults living in Madison. Madison Senior Center’s address is 1282 Hughes Road. For more information, call 256-461-1638, email rachael.burrus@ madisonal.gov or visit Facebook/ Madison City Senior Center.

HISTORY
THE MADISON RECORD • 5B
with John Rankin
The remarkable autobiography of Charles Burns - Part 1 By JOHN P. RANKIN Madison Historian MADISON - An African-American woman named Amanda Jacobs was an early ancestor and key figure in the history of the Horton, Jacobs, Burns, and other families of pre-Arsenal settlements at Pond Beat, Mullins Flats, and Silverhill. Descendants said that she came to “White owner” Jack Horton (Andrew Jackson Horton) as a servant, purchased for $900. However, Jack made her a free servant or “concubine” more properly. Amanda was valued at $900 in Jack’s father’s will. Whether she was bought from his father by Jack Horton or perhaps was inherited by Jack from his father is not known. Although Amanda’s children by Jack Horton took his surname, it is said that Amanda herself did not. Her maiden surname was Jacobs, and she kept it. Whatever Amanda’s social status may have been, she left a very significant legacy in the generations that came down from her, as will be seen in life stories told by Charles Burns and other family members. From the census records, it is concluded that, depending on the month of her birth, Amanda was born in 1841. This article is a synopsis of the life events written by Charles Burns, who grew up in the Pond Beat, Silverhill, and Mullins Flat communities in the southeast and central portions of Redstone Arsenal before it became owned by the Army. Charles was born in January of 1913, four years before the entry of the United States into WWI, and he died in Chicago in January of 2004. In the 1990s he began handwriting his life story, but he never completed his intended book. However, he returned to Huntsville occasionally, and he often used the telephone to talk with his relatives who remained in the area. While here, he researched public records with Ranee` Pruitt, archivist of the Huntsville main library, in order to find documents that would add to his first-hand knowledge about his ancestors and living relatives. He even left a handwritten manuscript of his early life with Ms. Pruitt in appreciation of her help and that of John Rankin. Rane` has passed away now, but the story that Charles wrote of his own childhood experiences was discovered in time to get it included in the book that Redstone staff archaeologist Beverly Curry (now deceased) completed in 2006 (with co-author and editor John Rankin) entitled “THE PEOPLE WHO LIVED ON THE LAND THAT IS NOW REDSTONE ARSENAL. The subtitles noted that the book covered the communities of Pond Beat, Mullins Flat, Hickory Grove, The Union Hill Cumberland Presbyterian Church area, and the Elko area. These communities were somewhat unique in the South of the time, because many of the landowners were Black, but they often rented store buildings and farmlands to some White folks. In fact, they even had White sharecroppers working for them on the farms. Life changed significantly after the Civil War in the rural South, and the Curry book illustrates the changes from that time in our area up to the time that the Army took the land that became Redstone Arsenal. The Curry book has 467 total pages, including a full-name index prepared exclusively by John Rankin. Pages 194-196 cover the story of an interview with Aaron Burns (b. 1892), who lived in Mullins Flat most of his life, but the interview was also published in the Redstone Rocket newspaper in 1980, well after Aaron had moved to the Harvest area. Aaron left his farm in Mullins Flat before Army ownership because a fire had destroyed his house and crops. Pages 197-209 cover specifically the early life of Charles Burns, who lived from 1913 in Alabama, but died in 2004 in Chicago, Illinois. An account of the personal interview by Ed Peters with Charles Burns was published in the July 8, 1987 issue of the Redstone Rocket. During that interview, Burns said he was writing a book “on the life of Huntsville and my folks.” At about the same point in time, Charles Burns told Ranee’ Pruitt he wanted to write a book about his family history. He gave Ranee’ a photocopy of 32 handwritten pages. Ranee’ kept them in a folder with other correspondence with him. In the spring of 2005, Ranee’ showed the pages written by Burns to Beverly Curry after John Rankin had mentioned the material to Beverly as something that she should ask about. Ranee` then allowed Beverly to photocopy the pages. As far as Ranee’ knew, Charles Burns had not published the book he wanted to write, so she saw this as a good way to preserve the material and get it known to the world. Lat-
er, Beverly’s book became a model and the first ever published for Army bases as an ethno-archaeological report. The pages written by Charles Burns provide a very unique and detailed glimpse into the life of the people in that part of Madison County in the 1913 – 1941 period. The pages of Burns’ handwritten content that were printed in Beverly’s book, with minor changes to punctuation and rare re-wording in a few of the sentences, are given below. Memories of Charles Burns, written by Charles Burns: There comes a time in a busy man’s life when a glance backwards over the road traveled turns him into a picture-taker of sorts, and his life becomes a colorful path of memories connecting the past with the present. My life has been like that -- a series of paths, each leading through a landscape of places and faces made dear to me by familiarity and family ties. My earliest memories, childhood glimmerings, are of the paths that my family’s feet had trod through the bottom land connecting my parent’s home in Mullins Flat, Madison County, Alabama, with the homes of my neighboring relatives. Perched precariously on my mother’s back, she would carry me over large stretches of the 2 ½ mile trek to her parents’ house. We were both often afraid, as we were constantly running into snakes and lizards. I couldn’t be looking down all the time because the blackberry, plum and grape vines would reach out and grab us. I was a heavy load for a little woman, and mother often rested on fallen trees or stumps. Sometimes she would cry. and I would cry along with her. We easily crossed many small streams on our way, but trouble usually started when we got to the bigger stream or creek named Windbank Springs. This is where my presence on Mother’s back presented a big problem. She had to walk on a log used to cross the creek. There was a long pole for steadying purposes, but sometimes I was so sure that she was going to fall off that I would let out a holler, fasten my hold around her neck, and knock her off-balance. To quiet me she would threaten that if I didn’t stop choking her and crying, she would let the crap shooters, men who sometimes gathered in the woods to shoot dice and swear, get ahold of me. This usually did the trick. and I would be very still. Sometimes it was too late though, and we would come tumbling down with a splash. Even when it hurt and we both cried, I knew my mother loved me more than life and that she would protect me from everything. Once over the creek, we arrived in a pasture. The cows and horses didn’t scare me as long as they had their heads down to graze, but when they stopped eating and came up to me to smell and lick my legs, there was no way I was going to stay on the ground. I sprang for Mother’s back and stayed there until we got to the old, creaky gate and stairs that separated the pasture from the tenant houses or Poppa Everett T. and Mamma Frances Lacy Horton’s big house in Silver Hill. Mother always had a friendly word with the families that she would meet along the path. When she would get up to the well, all of the aunts and uncles would run out to meet us. Each one would pick me up and hug and kiss me. Poppa and Mama Horton’s big house held many mysteries for a small boy. That house became a part of the rituals of my growing up. It was my habit as a toddler to inspect the whole house, room-by-room. I am not sure whether I was looking for something in particular or if it was my way of stalling the climax of my inspection which occurred when I ascended to the attic. There amidst musky old clothes and tempting home canned fruit my youngest aunt Maggie would be dressed in one of Mama Frances’ fur coats made out of monkey hair waiting to jump out at me and scare the living daylights out of me. Down I’d scurry all the way to the front door, across the porch and out to the fruit orchards where if I was lucky my Uncle James Horton would grab me up and console me. For one little boy, growing up an only child, I had the biggest family this side of the Bible. My mother was a Horton. Her parents Everett T. and Frances Lacy Horton were wonderful grandparents to me. Mother Clara was their oldest child but she had plenty of younger brothers and sisters who all became devoted aunts and uncles to their first little nephew. There was James Horton, Booker T. Horton, Spencer E. Horton, Leona Horton, Celester Horton, Cebelle Horton and Maggie Horton. All of my aunts were beautiful and all of my uncles were handsome. They were all very light-skinned and intelligent too. My father, John W. Burns, hailed from an equally large family. When I knew him Grandfather James Peter Burns was

married to his second wife, Amanda Lanier Burns. She had one son, Jeremiah M. Lanier, who was half-brother to my father and his brother Oscar Burns and James Peter Burns II. She had one daughter, Ophelia Burns, who was half-sister to his sisters Aadie, Dora, Eliza, Betty and Agerian Burns. With so many aunts and uncles, I was assured enough cousins to play with. Uncle Oscar, Aunt Liza and cousins Jabo, Robert, Taylor, and Grace lived only a few fields and streams away. The path between the two houses was well-worn. In each yard, Uncle Oscar and my dad put a pole in the ground with a plank across it, with seats on each end and a large iron bolt in the middle holding everything together, allowing someone to push it around and around. This wonderful contraption was called a “flying ginny”. I got many a fall from it because I would go so fast for so long that I would be drunk and swimming in the head. It was easy to slide off, especially if the direction was abruptly changed. Much of our play was with nature’s elements. Being little and close to the ground, we spent a lot of time there. Our games of leap frog would often end in a search for frogs so we could watch them jump and swim and race them to see which was the fastest. Still down on our knees, we would delight in watching the tumblebug. We would find his small hole in the ground, get a small straw or twig, spit on it, and put it down the hole to attract the tumblebug out of his hole. Once out of the hole, the tumblebug would head straight for some cow, pig, or horse manure. Then it would get into that, make a marble out of it, and roll it all the way back to his hole. We wouldn’t see that tumblebug again until it had eaten the marble up and was ready for more. We also played with the tumblebugs, spending hours chasing them with shingles from the roof of a house or barn. June bugs that we captured with jars provided entertainment too. We would tie a long string to one of their legs and let them fly for hours or until their leg came off. We would even tie string around the necks of snakes and race them. There were a lot of poisonous snakes -- water moccasins, copperheads, and rattlers. We knew which ones to play with and which ones to avoid. When we played in the fields, a lot of the smaller farm animals like the baby horses, goats, and pigs played along with us. We had special ponds where the boys would go swimming. My favorite was a lily pond
with beautiful lilies everywhere. It was approximately 100 feet square and surrounded by tall trees with muscadine vines all over them. We would swim and sunbathe in the mud until it dried all over our bodies. Then we would march like stiff-legged monsters back into the water and play for hours. When we got hungry, we would reach up and eat wild grapes and muscadines. The day usually caught up with us there at the pond, and we’d have to race home in time for a bath before supper. I would always get sleepy before my bath, but I never got out of taking it. I can remember how strict my mother was about cleanliness -- of the house and of my personal things. She always wanted me and dad to be neat. She was a thorough housekeeper. Why, she even kept the yard swept clean. She had chickens, ducks, geese, little kittens, dogs and baby pigs as pets. But, the yard stayed clean. Not to be outdone, my father, John Wesley Burns, was in the cleaning business too. He took clothes from the neighbors which he then cleaned and pressed. I remember one day when he had finished pressing, and he had placed the hot iron out on the edge of the porch to cool, I decided to play with it. While I didn’t burn myself as well I might, in the motion of pushing the iron back and forth, the iron fell off the porch, and I fell with it. That was a frightening experience. My father was a real go-getter. He rose with the sun to do the early chores, like milking the cows and feeding the hogs, mules, horses, and chickens. He often had to mend the fences because the cattle were always pushing into them, and the horses would kick them down. After his outdoor activities, father would come in and take up one of his other occupations. Besides cleaning clothes, he also built swings. But his major source of income was from sales. Father sold all kinds of books and all kinds of insurance. Because he was a businessman, he dressed very nice and was always on the go. Mother would fix a big breakfast for us at about 10:00 A.M., and then my father would saddle up his horse and be on his way selling. There were many days when he would hitch the horse and buggy and take us to Mamma Frances and Poppa T.’s house on his way to work. When he finished, he would stop and pick us up to go home. But we always ate supper there first. Look for part 2 in next week’s issue of The Madison Record.

GEORGE WASHINGTON’S BIRTHDAY
Did you know that the official name of Presidents Day, which is celebrated yearly on the third Monday in February, is actually “George Washington’s Birthday”? The day began as a day to honor George Washington and now honors all 45 of the American Presidents, current and past. The holiday began in Washington, D.C. in 1879. In 1885, President Arthur made it an official Federal holiday for the entire Country. George Washington was actually born on February 22, 1732, in Westmoreland, Virginia. He grew up on his father’s plantation. It was once said that as a young man he chopped down one of his father’s cherry trees; when asked by his father if he had committed the act, he replied “Yes, I cannot tell a lie.” Although this story may not have happened, Washington was well-renowned for his good morals and character. He married his wife, Martha, on January 6, 1759. As a young adult, he worked as a land surveyor before beginning his military career. He commanded the Continental Army through the Revolutionary War, and on April 30, 1789, he took the Oath of Office and was sworn in as the first President of the United States. Known as the “Father of our Country,” many of Washington’s ideals still influence who the United States is as a Country today. President Washington held office for only two terms--from 1789 to 1797. He helped to pick the sight of the White House which has been home to all of the American Presidents, but him. This year we will celebrate Washington and all the Presidents on Monday February 21.

Verse of the Week
I love you, Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. Psalm 18:2
Appalachian funerals By DAWN REED
Help is on the way By BECKY MILLER God’s Lemonade Stand
“Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:13 I am not sure what you may be facing today and maybe every day. Physical challenge, mental challenge, wayward children, sickness, but God hears you and has not forgotten you even though you wonder when the tables will turn. Why me Lord? Recently I became very discouraged over something I have been trusting God for many years. I realized two factors where Satan was at work in my mind trying to taunt me and that was the completion of 21 Days of Prayer,
and also a wonderful Moms in Prayer gathering. The enemy hates it when you pray, and he hates when you stay peaceful in the storms of life. Whatever is going on know that God has a plan, and He is growing you just as much as the person or situation you are praying for. You need to be still, keep praying, don’t try to work things out on your own, and yes did I say pray? PRAYER: Father, I thank you for all you have given me in my life. Even when situations seem dire and unchangeable, I know you are there. Help me be still. In Jesus’ name. Amen. God’s Lemonade Stand is written by former Madison resident Becky Miller. Her daily devotions appear on Facebook or at godslemonadestand.blogspot.com.
“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” - Isaiah 41:10
Church Directory
A funeral in Appalachia is an emotional and wonderful thing. If you’ve never had the pleasure of attending a mountain farewell celebration, there’s much to be appreciated. Last weekend, the funerals of two of my beloved’s cousins were held back home in Belfry. At the first, cousins from all over Kentucky, Ohio, and New York hugged, laughed, and cried as they reminisced. They hadn’t been together in years. I watched and listened as they talked at once catching up for lost time. In the mountains, we take a seat and sit a spell. And we did. The six offspring from the Scalf clan had been Ernestine, Maxine, Edgar, Willie (Junior), Janice, and Frankie. While the elder Scalf’s had passed on, their children had gathered to pay their respects to one of their own. Seeing all of them together, I grabbed a pen to take notes. I’d only met a few of them over the years but had heard their names and stories forever. I wanted to get everyone straight. When you pay attention, you can learn the best stuff ! Ernestine married Kingfish (probably not his real name). They begat Morgan and Judy. Maxine begat Mickey and Debbie. He is married to Pam, while she is married to Pogo (truly not his real

1980. I had unknowingly married them all. They had welcomed me into the fold. My beloved had the honor of preaching both services. After telling funny stories with laughter erupting all around, he shared God’s Word. He reminded everyone that death was coming for all of us, ending with the importance of having a relationship with God. That’s the game changer. We headed to the cemetery both days in the rain. Along the way, cars and trucks pulled to the side of the road to show respect. It’s a mountain thing and melts my heart. It hits different when it’s your family. The cousins were buried a day and a few feet apart. After each graveside service, a dinner was held for anyone who wanted to come. (It used to be called “dinner on the ground” because it was often right there at the cemetery.) We left promising we would stay in touch. When we give our hearts to Jesus, we are grafted into a humungous family or clan. All sizes, shapes, and ages are connected by the blood of Jesus. There’s room for everyone. The two funerals made me think of how it will be in heaven. I picture us rushing to loved ones we haven’t seen in so long. Lots of hugs and catching up. (I’m gonna cry for a second just thinking about hugging my mom.) There will be laughing along with tears. We will see Jesus first and then there will be a big dinner!

name). Edgar’s kids were Dan and Phil. (I found out Dan proposed to his wife at their Junior Prom.) Jr’s children were Stan and Susan. Janice had two daughters: Brenda and Leigh Ann. Frankie also had two girls: Karen and Sharon. Karen passed away four years ago; this was Sharon’s funeral. See why I took notes? A few family members shared in the service. Dan said Sharon had wanted to have a family reunion this year and here they were. He talked about all those she was now with in heaven. Smiles and tears covered every face. The next day, a completely different and yet related Bevins clan gathered. The Bevins children were Ethel, Armilda, Craft, Eunice, Glessie, and Myrtle. I mention the names of the Scalf’s and Bevin’s because they were good mountain people. Hard workers, honest, and kind to their neighbors. This time their descendants had come together to celebrate the homegoing of Geraldine Welch, a beloved retired teacher who had touched many lives. Geraldine’s family traveled mostly from Lexington to pay their respects. Cousins from the previous day also appeared. The hugs, the reminiscing, and the laughter were all present here, too. These weren’t actually my people; I’m from Pond Creek. These dears were from Big Creek. I wasn’t flesh and blood but was grafted in upon my marriage in

offer a perfect three-legged stool for economic development, but if any of those legs are lost, the stool cannot continue to stand, and, unfortunately, one of those legs is being threatened. Just last month, the United Auto Workers, commonly known as the UAW, announced a renewed effort to expand its footprint by organizing laborers in states like ours that have been historically and traditionally resistant to union activity. If they are successful, Alabama, and states like ours, could soon see their automotive industry quickly recede like a falling tide. The UAW and other labor unions are typically most active in areas where the cost of living is expensive, taxes are high, and well-paying, long-lasting jobs are scarce, but in Alabama, our cost of living and taxes are among the lowest in the nation, and we currently have an abundance of lucrative 21st Century employment opportunities for anyone who seeks them. Alabama’s automotive companies already offer generous salary and benefits packages across the board, and they score highly on employee satisfaction surveys. Giving the UAW a toehold within the state is the same as dumping a large and toxic dose of castor oil into a delightfully delicious economic development recipe. Since that first stunning an-

individuals who are interested to connect with them for an in-depth conversation, exploring tailored sponsorship opportunities that fit seamlessly with organizational objectives. This year’s “State of” Series will align well with businesses in the government, education, and healthcare industries. “A few years ago, the Madison Chamber revamped the format of our State of the City event now known as Celebrate Madison,” said Michelle. “We aimed to make it a more engaging and inclusive experience for all participants. Following its success, we introduced a State of Schools event called the Back-toSchool Breakfast and we will add a State of Healthcare event this year
that we have named Heartbeat of Healthcare. These events spotlight our local professionals through expert panels and valuable discussions, keeping the community informed of major milestones in Madison.” The Chamber continues to dedicate itself to fostering collaboration, innovation, and success within the City of Madison.

Continued from page 4A nouncement, Mercedes has continued to expand its presence in Alabama, added new models, including electric vehicles, to its portfolio manufactured in Vance, and invested more than $7 billion in the Yellowhammer State. Hyundai recently announced a $300 million expansion at its Montgomery facility and is adding 200 new jobs while one of its major suppliers, Hyundai Mobis, is building a $400 million, 400 job plant that will provide batteries for electric vehicles and become operational by 2025. Mazda Toyota Manufacturing is currently working to hire 300 additional workers in order to reach a 4,000-employee goal at its $2.3 billion automobile assembly plant in Huntsville. And the $3 billion Honda plant in Talladega County has made a large investment in upgrades to ease and hasten production of its Pilot SUV, Ridgeline pickup truck, and other vehicles. With so much expansion, investment, and, most importantly, job creation taking place within Alabama’s automotive sector, it makes no sense to risk the UAW upending this delicate balance and reversing such positive trends. It recalls one of our best known and often used Southern expressions, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” In order to combat the UAW’s ef-
forts, which could export our jobs to other regions and kill our ability to recruit new and expanding industries, the Business Council of Alabama and our allies are beginning an informational campaign titled “Alabama Strong.” Using a website, online advertisements, and other forms of digital and social media, our campaign will provide Alabamians with a full and thorough picture of the economic dangers that unionization presents. “Alabama Strong” will also suggest ways all of us can take a stand and discourage the UAW from making our state its main battlefield. Newspaper headlines are often filled with stories about the “decline of Detroit” as portions of the city famous for automotive manufacturing now look like Wall Street on Black Tuesday in 1929. Jobs are scarce, opportunities are few, and valid hopes for a return to its glory days as an economic center are rare. Much of the decay that exists in the “Motor City” today results from untenable demands that the UAW placed on its automobile manufacturers, an unwise move that sent untold numbers of jobs to right-towork states like ours and crippled a once great metropolis. Join our “Alabama Strong” campaign and resolve that we will not let the UAW do to Alabama what it did to Detroit.
