Keeping History Alive
By Justin Waybright justin@thecabellstandard.com
MILTON - Camaros, long hair and bell bottoms point to a time where rock music was king. Relive this era at the Milton Performing Arts Center (MPAC) May 11. Mr. Speed, a Kiss tribute band will rock Milton. The group is known as the “world’s best Kiss tribute band.” The four rockers will cover many of the classics fans know and love. “We ran into them in Columbus and was impressed with them,” said Bill Kelley, president of the WV Pumpkin Festival. “I’m looking for a big turnout on their show.” Kelley’s goal is to continue offering entertainment like this for the city at affordable prices. The community has been responding to that goal. SEE MPAC ON PAGE 9

Generous Reward will be given for Stanley’s return
Since March 1, 2013, a beautiful gray and white, 22pound cat has been missing from his home at Teays Valley Hardware Store at Scott Depot, owned and operated by Brad Bogle and his partner Howard Gregory of Teays Valley Builders. This store “mascot” has been a fixture [at the store]for several years. Customers like this beautiful gentle cat and often bring children just to see Stanley and pet him. Shortly after his being reported as missing, someone in the White Pines subdivision reported having seen him. Another person thought they might have seen him around the golf course in the Fraziers Bottom area. Any school or church youth group would be generously rewarded if they can return him to the Teays Valley Hardware Store, which may be contacted at 304757-7225 to report his appearance or to arrange to return him to the store. The same reward would be given to any men’s or women’s group or church missionary group that might locate him. The same reward would, of course, be given to any individual person who might find him and return him to the store. Any person or group finding this unusual cat and returning him to the rightful owner will be generously rewarded. The number to call is 304-757-7225.

HISTORY FROM PAGE 1 legacy. “My great grandmother was a Rosie - she was someone in my family I never knew, and I wanted to meet others like her,” the 19-year-old said. “It’s like watching a movie every time you meet one of these ladies.” Farmer’s Grandmother Gloria Farmer, riveted airplanes in Detroit. Anne Montegue is the executive director of Thanks! Plain and Simple, a nonprofit organization that honors Rosies throughout the state. She was pleased to take part in the spring project. “We want every community in America to have ways to honor Rosies, and leave something behind that they can be proud of,”
WeeklyDevotional
said Montegue. “It’s time for this project - people are now realizing clearly that these women did a lot of hard work behind the scenes.” The big-band song during the World War II era, “The Blue Bird of Happiness” inspired this project, aimed at hanging birdhouses throughout the state and keeping history alive. Seconds after they hung the wooden structure, a bird flew over it, chirping in the wind. The Rosie legacy will not end in Barboursville. Area students will work to complete a custom glass project at Milton’s Blenko Glass to honor the group. The finished project will be unveiled May 22.
April Birthdays!
“THE LUSH OF SPRING” Thought for the week: Consider the lilies how they grow; they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not Arrayed like one of these. Luke 12:27 (KJV) This is going to be one of those springs, we talk about. How Lush and beautiful all the dogwoods trees, the redbud, just Look, how huge the ground violets and dandelions are; seems even the bees and wasps are larger sized this spring. A lush year, and a predicted, abundant garden crop this year - so get out there and plan yours - how can you go wrong? Did you know that in Lincoln county 6000 people use the food pantry monthly? Thankful we have food pantries. There is grass to be mowed and it is lush too. That’s just spring exercise, keeping it mowed. So when those big wild orange lily’s bloom along the roadside this year, remember I told you so. They are going to be
larger than usual. The birds know, they are so busy surveying and building their nests some place - like on the top of window shutters. But that’s ok, it’s only for a season, this family is renting. According to the DNR of WV, there are more than 300 plus species of birds, inhabiting the state during some part of the year. Some being migrants who passed thru, just spending the winter. There are 21 species of snakes in WV - only two venomous, the copperhead and timber rattler. Snakes have their purpose on earth - eating a variety of small insects, earthworms, rodents, lizards or frogs. They are as frightened of you as you are of them. Genesis - 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon
the earth. In history on this day, April 30th 1789 - on the balcony of Federal Hall on Wall Street in New York City - George Washington takes the oath of office to become the first elected president of the United States. 224 years ago. In his speech, he gives credit to almighty God, for His election by the people to guide them. And we took prayer out of school, soon to have ‘’ In God we trust” off our currency, what would our founding father think of that? In history on this day, April 30th 1932 U.S. - The lung disease tuberculosis was becoming widespread; highly contagious. My own father-in-law spent 2 years away from home in a Beckley WV sanatorium, leaving a wife and twin sons, age two years old, to be cared for by family. Did you know each watermelon has an even number stripes on the outside? Each orange has an equal number of sections, and the waves of the sea roll in on shore twenty-six to the minute in all kinds of weather? And we cannot put all our trust in HIM? Prayer: Thank you once again, Our Father of all, for sending us a new season to enjoy. Amen.

Governor Tomblin announces Plans for State's 150th Birthday Celebration CHARLESTON, WV - Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin announced plans to celebrate West Virginia’s 150th birthday. The celebration, organized by the West Virginia Sesquicentennial Commission, will take place at the State Capitol Complex beginning on the state’s official birthday, Thursday, June 20, and concluding Sunday, June 23. “West Virginians still talk about the centennial celebration that took place on the Capitol Steps in 1963. It was a day that made all of us proud to be West Virginians,” Gov. Tomblin said. “This June, our state will turn 150, and I know West Virginians from every corner of the Mountain State will be filled with pride as we celebrate our
big day. The events at the State Capitol will be something you won’t want to miss.” The birthday celebration will kick-off with a statewide bell ringing on Thursday, June 20 at 1:50 p.m. The governor will be in Charleston to ring a bell as a part of a ceremony to celebrate the state’s last 150 years. That evening, an outdoor symphony concert will be held on the Capitol lawn. Following the concert, West Virginia history will be brought to life in a special threedimensional film that will be projected directly onto the face of the State Capitol building. The video will conclude with a Zambelli fireworks show launched from the roof of the Capitol.

Velma’s View By Velma Kitchens Ramps Recently, I met a lady who was talking about ramps. Now the ramps I am speaking of are the ramps that grow wild, like onions. April is the time to go collect the ramps from the woods or wherever you gather them. She and I agreed on one thing, we don’t like ramps. My sister gave me some ramps many years ago and I will never forget the smell. We took the paper bag she gave to us which had the ramps and soon as we got home, they were out of there, and in the garbage. I realize people are different and many of you folks just love ramps, but I don’t. I have heard they are really good in fried potatoes and other dishes, but I have not tried them. The lady I was speaking with said there is a church in Nettie, West Virginia, which is near Summersville and each year they have a ramp dinner and raise money for their church. She said people come from far and near to eat the delicious ramps. I would think there is a trick to cooking ramps, but I just don’t know how to get rid of the smell. One of my co-workers said her Grandpa ate ramps and came into her house and the smell almost peeled the paint off the walls. He came to church a few days later and she could smell him across the hall. Another story about ramps is so funny. A pregnant lady had eaten ramps a few weeks before delivery and the nurse said when the woman’s water broke, the entire room smelled of ramps and the poor little baby smelled like ramps also. I guess they named the baby Ramp Jr. If you enjoy the ramps, eat on; but I think I will hold off.
MONEY FROM PAGE 1 hearing the good news and financial standing of the county she leads. “It’s a wonderful report. And I’m elated,” she said. With tough economic times and a rising jail bill, allocating funds to various county agencies for improvements and upgrades can be a challenge, Cartmill said. However, it’s one the commission is ready to tackle, even if it means skipping pay raises for county employees. “It’s going to be a tough time with arrests going up in the summer, and we have to put money in the budget for the jail bill line item,” she said. “Last year, there were no pay raises, but we’ll take another look at that this year.” Cartmill credits the financial success of Cabell County to the unity that takes place among staff. To her, working together is the key to continuing financial prosperity and positive audit reports. “I’ve heard that ‘unity of pur-
pose is the main ingredient in an organization,’ and as long as we all work well together, we’ll continue these accomplishments,” said Cartmill. In other discussions, commissioners proclaimed April 25 as Arbor Day. Before the county meeting, they planted five trees on courthouse grounds. Commissioners ended the meeting, honoring the hard work of Pete Meadows, director of maintenance for the courthouse. The long-time county worker retired to spend more time with family. “I really enjoyed working here and meeting new people and friends,” said Meadows. Commissioner Bob Bailey presented him with a key to the county. “We appreciate all the hard work you’ve done for us,” he said. The brief commission meeting ended after 23 minutes. The next commission meeting is 10 a.m. May 9.

Irish Road Bowling consists of a ball made out of iron and steel that is heavy enough to pick up speed, yet small enough for any person to handle. Besides the basic rules and terms, all you do is hurl this 28 oz. sized "bowl" with an underhand motion over a one to two mile country road and see how far it goes! Team events are played with teams of three or four bowlers. Scored like golf, the fewest number of shots from the start to the finish line wins.

So we're arresting kids for wearing NRA shirts?
David Payne Sr. Column by David Payne Sr. davidpayne@theputnamstandard.com
I never thought I'd see the day where a 14-year-old would be arrested for wearing an NRA shirt. But that's exactly what happened. Jared Marcum, 14, wore a National Rifle Association shirt at
Logan Middle School and was told he had to turn his shirt inside out. He refused and wound up suspended and arrested. He came back to school after his suspension wearing that same shirt. So did about 100 students who turned out to school wearing NRA-theme shirts. God bless those kids. The family has an attorney. Good for them. I am reminded of something Thomas Jefferson said about the amount of tyranny you live under will be the exact amount that you will endure. I'm glad that they choose not to endure it. Schools' reactions to expressions of the First Amendment about the Second Amendment are typically over-the-top. When I was a teacher's aide, many times students – and I'm talking about middle-school age students, in an attempt to get another student in trouble would say “(insert student name here) is talking about guns.” They would say it because they

believed doing so would get the other student into trouble. That's because even talking about guns actually will get a student in trouble. Making a little gun with your fingers will get you in a lot of trouble. God forbid anybody makes one of those little paper guns from two pieces of notebook paper like we did when I was a kid. I'm not saying that schools are places to be talking about guns and some students can get obsessive about such things, but in general schools' reaction to all things even remotely related to guns is typically excessive and beyond the realm of common sense. I believe, on some level, it is purposefully done. The idea is to instill in students an unnatural negative reaction to firearms – for the rest of their lives, even the sight of a gun will make them very afraid. They have been taught that guns are good for only one thing – killing people. They treat alcohol the same way. Students are taught alcohol is in-
herently evil, as if the only thing that can be done with it is to binge drink. That works for some. For others, it does nothing but make alcohol look cool. When I was going to school in Europe, I was struck by how differently European teens not only view alcohol, but use it. There, it's nothing for a young teen to have a glass of wine with his parents at dinner. Yet, you don't see them drunk. Let's say some teens are having a party with a cooler full of beer and cola. A German teen would be more likely to grab one of the colas than a beer. But here, we treat alcohol much differently with our youth – even to the point where we can send an 18 year old to Afghanistan for a year's tour and when he comes home somehow have the audacity to tell him he's not old enough to drink a beer. Schools having such an unnatural reaction to such things as shirts that mention a firearm only serves to perpetuate this notion that a
firearm is only a killing machine, making it even more attractive to certain kinds of violent students. It squelches the idea that was instilled in me that a gun was a tool, like a chainsaw. You can also kill people with chainsaws, but if you are using a chainsaw that's the last thing that would cross your mind. A major problem that I see here is a breakdown of order at the school. A mass protest among students usually leads to some temporary breakdown of order, a breakdown of control that school administrators have. Now, not only does Logan Middle School have to deal with student protesting, the story has appeared in newspapers, Web sites, and television news across the world. Now, there are lawyers involved. It would have been far simpler to just have let the kid wear the Tshirt. Contact David Payne at davidpayne@theputnamstandard.com.
Outdoor Roundup West Virginia's spring gobbler season is underway and runs until May 18, 2013. Biologists say this year's late spring should be helpful for hunters. “Unlike 2012, when spring green-up came early, this year winter is still hanging on and very few trees have leaves out yet,” said Curtis I. Taylor, DNR Wildlife Resources chief. “Therefore, the late appearance of spring will likely increase the distance hunters can hear a gobbler. However, the peak of gobbling occurs near the end of April or early May as hens go to incubate their clutches, so hunters shouldn’t be surprised if they hear more birds at that time. Gobblers will also be more willing to come to calls once hens have gone to incubate their clutches so hunters should continue hunting as the season progresses." Hunters may kill only one bearded turkey per day and are allowed two per season. “While snow has little effect on the gobblers,” Taylor said “it definitely makes it more difficult on the hunters, which was one reason the harvest was down in 2012. Assuming that the weather cooperates and the approximately 65,000 spring gobbler hunters participate, we believe the harvest should improve from last year’s 8,303 to a more typical 9,000 birds.”
Since the early 1980s, the DNR has collected a wealth of valuable data from hunters with the annual Spring Gobbler Survey. This survey has hunters record items of interest by day, like the number of gobblers heard, called in, missed and harvested. Biologists are also interested in other animals seen. The data is tabulated and compared against previous years in a report that is mailed back to all cooperators the next year. Contact Tammie Thompson at 304-637-0245 or download a survey form at www.wvdnr.gov. An outdoor sport linked to Civil War times, Irish Road Bowling is scheduled at Kanawha State Forest, 1:30 p.m. Saturday, May 4. Registration starts near the restrooms across from Rattlesnake Hollow at 12:30 p.m. IRB event starts at 1:30 p.m. For more information about Irish Road Bowling contact Stephen Wallington, 304638-3224. “This is an exciting opportunity to do something a little bit different in the outdoors and we expect a lot of people to come out and give it a try,” said Kevin Dials, assistant superintendent at Kanawha State Forest. I'd never heard of Irish Road Bowling until I started writing outdoors pages for newspapers about 10 years ago (state-park news always finds its way on the
outdoors page). It's basically a contest to see who can roll an iron ball the farthest. OK, so it is a little more complicated than that. It's scored like golf, only instead of putting the ball in a hole; you roll it across a line. Whoever can roll it across the line – which is some distance away – with the fewest number of bowls wins. May 4 at Kanawha State Forest. Other Irish bowling events are slated for June 15 at Blackwater Falls State Park, June 16 at Canaan Valley Resort, July 21 at Cacapon Resort State Park, Oct. 12 at Holly River State Park, Oct. 26 at Chief Logan State Park and Nov. 3 at Stonewall Resort. The National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) will pay $200 cash rewards for information leading to the arrest and conviction of persons who illegally kill or possess a wild turkey. The NWTF also pays a reward of $100 for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of persons attempting to kill wild turkeys through the use of bait or who willfully destroy the nest or eggs of wild turkey. The informant's identity will remain confidential. By reporting poaching incidents, the public can make a significant contribution to West Virginia's wild turkey management program, officials said.

Prestera Center honors Robert H. Hansen with Michael Prestera Award of Excellence HUNTINGTON, WV - Prestera Center bestows the prestigious Michael Prestera Award of Excellence each year to one person whose contributions result in improvements in mental health and/or substance abuse issues. Prestera Center and the award are named for Michael Prestera, an original member of the founding Board of Directors in 1967 who fought for funding to open Prestera Center. Mr. Prestera perished in the nation’s worst sports tragedy that also affected the Marshall University football team, coaches, staff and other boosters. The Center was re-named in his honor and the Award of Excellence is given each year to honor advocates and contributors to behavioral health services. The 2013 Michael Prestera Award of Excellence is awarded to Robert H. Hansen, retired President and CEO of Prestera Center. Throughout his career, including 22 years he served at Prestera Center, he worked tirelessly to improve the lives of
people living with mental illness and substance abuse. He has dedicated his professional career to expanding services to meet growing needs of individuals in our community and throughout the State. “Bob Hansen exemplifies the ‘three Ps’ of exemplary behavioral health service” says Karen Yost, current President and CEO of Prestera. “These are passion, people, and partnerships. Bob has never shied away from developing a service or establishing a partnership if it would benefit a person in need.” When Mr. Hansen joined Prestera Center, it was financially insolvent verging on bankruptcy and staff morale was low. Mr. Hansen was hired for the job because of his unfailing commitment to caring, his high energy level and his creative ideas. During his tenure, Prestera Center grew to employ 850 staff, and serve over 21,000 adults, children and families last year in fifty-three service locations across eight counties in

Courtesy photo West Virginia. Mr. Hansen’s faithful service to the organization has resulted in explosive growth from the time he took command of Prestera Center in 1990. Mr. Hansen has left an indeli-
ble mark on our community, our clients, and our staff. Prestera Center’s strong tradition of providing the highest quality services dedicated to helping people achieve their full potential will continue. Mr.
Hansen joins past Michael Prestera Award Winners: Mildred Bateman, M.D. (1996), Joan E. Ross (1997), Betty Barrett (1998), William Dotson (1999), Delegate Margarette Leach (2000), Francie RobertsBuchannon (2001), William Wright (2002), Maurice Cooley (2003), Senator Robert Plymale (2004), James Weiler (2005), Delegate Don Perdue (2006), Scott Finn (2006), Linda Pleasants (2007), Jack Clohan (2007), Debby Hibbard (2008), Dr. Ron Duerring (2008), Frank Markun (2009), Karen Yost (2010), Dan Hedges (2011), and Delegate Jim Morgan (2012).

Hope Cruises to Local Family By Justin Waybright justin@thecabellstandard.com
BUFFALO - Tricked-out muscle cars and imports shined in the sun during the Cruise-in for Paul Holley, a Hannan High School student, on Saturday April 20. People across the state with immaculate rides, cruised onto the Buffalo Diner parking lot to provide hope and love for a fellow car enthusiast, who nearly lost his life in February. The sound of tweaked 4-cylinder tuning echoed throughout town while the raw power of V-8 bigblocks shook the pavement at the restaurant. Mustangs, Camaros, Hondas, pick-ups and other custom rides stole the attention and admiration of the crowd. Two months ago, Holley crashed his custom pick-up truck. The accident broke his neck and paralyzed him. Medical bills piled up and put a severe financial strain on his family. But hope came. CL’s Finest and Trojan car clubs hosted the cruise-in to help cover the bills and lift the Holley Family’s spirit.
Cruisin’ for a purpose - Men and women drive their tricked-out cars and trucks to a cruise-in to raise money for Holley’s family. Photo by Justin Waybright Jodi Johnson, remembers the day she got the call that her cousin had been in a serious wreck. “I was heart-broken and shocked,” she said. “It was really sad.” Johnson looked toward the rows of cars and trucks at the cruise-in. She smiled. “It’s amazing how the community came together and helped - it’s incredible,” she said. “It’s great to have churches praying and to receive all the encouraging comments.” Across from Johnson, a man stood by a long row of custom rides. David Withrow, president of CL’s Finest Car Club and owner of a modified S-10, Limo and Brevada was proud to offer a helping hand to
a fellow car enthusiast. “We can help a little bit at least, but we can never ease someone’s mind of what happened,” he said. “We’re always trying to help out the community.” Withrow’s car club holds an annual car show to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House. This year’s event is Aug. 24 at CampVirgil Tate. Near Withrow, a young man walked by a shiny Mustang. Steve Winters, president of Trojans Car Club and owner of a 1969 Mustang Mach 1, a 1970 Boss and a 1997 Cobra was happy to have a large turn-out. His club holds charity events often. “We try to choose someone in the
Hope for Paul - Paul Holley stands by his antique pick-up before he wrecked the custom ride in February. The accident paralyzed his body, but his love for cruising was alive Saturday April 20. Courtesy Photo community in a hardship and donate to that person,” Winters said. “It’s great to volunteer and help someone like this.” TheTrojan Car Club holds cruiseins throughout the summer. The next one is 6 p.m. May 18 at Buffalo Diner. For car lovers like Winters and Withrow, cruising is a soulful experience like no other.
“There’s nothing like it,” saidWinters. “It’s a sense of satisfaction.” Withrow agreed. “It’s great,” he said. “Kids see it and you stand out - it’s enjoyable.” The sunset ended the successful event that provided hope and help for Holley. As evening turned to night, the exhaust of custom rides echoed in the distance, a tribute to a fellow cruiser.
