MILTON - Police officers continue to punch holes in the local drug trade.

The latest hit occurred at 9:30 a.m. on Feb. 8 along Fair Grounds Rd. Officers received a tip regarding a suspicious vehicle. The tip led Milton Police Chief Gary Lilly to a tan Buick on U.S. 60.

"They seemed suspicious, watching every move I made," said Lilly. "It all went downhill from there."

After stopping the driver, Lilly called on Cpl. K. O'Dell for help.

The smell of marijuana flooded the car.

The two officers searched the vehicle and questioned the subjects. O'Dell and Lilly found marijuana buds, "finished meth products" and a "shake-n-bake" setup.

Next, the officers arrested the driver and subjects.

"They had been up for fourdays-straight," said Lilly.

Police arrested Johnathan Beaver, 31, Tara Noe, 22 and Morgan Davis, 19. The three SEE DRUG ON PAGE 3

MILTON - Come to the city’s first day spa to get revitalized and refreshed.

After months of hard work and renovation, the staff at Serenity Day Spa held a grand opening Feb. 9.

More than 30 eager men and women crowded the new business at 1109 Main Street.

The bright sun peeked through the clouds and shone down onto Co-owner Kristy Ferguson. The cold weather, coupled with the sunny day reminded Ferguson of why she began a career in massage therapy.

“She’s definitely here,” she said.

Ferguson watched as her mother fought cancer for 13 years. The retail worker quit her job in Ohio and moved home to be with her.

After watching various doctors and medications fail, Ferguson learned oncology massage, special techniques geared toward relieving pains associated with cancer patients.

“She was wheelchair-bound, but after I worked with her, she walked again on her own,” said Ferguson. “She is why I became a massage therapist.”

Shortly after the miracle, her 55-year-old mother passed away, but her dying wish did not.

Ferguson volunteered at Hospice of Huntington, offering massages to cancer patients.

Ferguson kept her mother’s spirit

alive.

“She inspired me to help others,” she said.

Lisa Floyd, director of Volunteer Services at Hospice of Huntington described the driving force behind Ferguson.

“That was her mother’s dying wish - she wanted her to volunteer for hospice,” said Floyd.

“She learned massage to relieve her mother’s pain.”

WV DNR announces Public Meetings to discuss Proposed Hunting, Trapping and Fishing Regulations SOUTH CHARLESTON – The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources (DNR) will hold 12 public meetings across the state in March to provide hunters, trappers, anglers, landowners and other interested parties an opportunity to review and comment on proposed 2013 hunting regulations for white-tailed deer, wild turkey, black bear and boar, proposed 2014-2015 general hunting and trapping regulations, proposed amphibian and reptile regulations, and proposed 2014 fishing regulations.

These meetings will be held from 6 - 8 p.m. on March 18 and March 19, and the public is encouraged to attend.

“The public meetings have been designed to use an ‘Open House’ format,’” said DNR Director Frank Jezioro. “This informal meeting style allows people to attend at their convenience during the scheduled meeting times, learn of proposed regulation changes, discuss these proposals with Wildlife Resources biologists and Natural Resource Police Officers and comment on the proposed regulations and other wildlife-related issues.”

As in the past, written comments from the public on these proposed hunting, trapping and fishing regulations will also be encouraged. Deadline for written comments is April 5, 2013.

A local meeting is scheduled for Monday, March 18, 2013 in Milton at the West Virginia Pumpkin Park (Office Building).

Cabell County Schools invites Community and Employees to Meetings about Balanced Calendar Cabell County Schools is considering a possible move to a balanced calendar for the 2014-2015 school year. A balanced calendar reallocates the same number of days (180) across the calendar to lengthen the fall, winter and

The Cabell Standard spring breaks while shortening the normally extended summer break to approximately five weeks.

“The district is considering a balanced calendar because research has shown it has the potential of helping to reduce summer learning loss for students,” says Gerry Sawrey, Assistant Superintendent over School Improvement. “And, during the 2-3 week breaks, or intersessions, there is the potential to offer additional help for students who are falling behind; or optional enrichment activities for students who need to be challenged.”

To share what a balanced calendar might look like and some reasons the change is being considered; the school system has planned a series of informational meetings and is inviting the community and employees to attend. The next scheduled meetings are as follows: Milton Middle School - February 25, 2013 Beverly Hills Middle School February 26, 2013 On these dates, district leaders will be meeting with employees from 4:00 to 5:30 PM, and then will be welcoming members of the community from 6:00 to 7:30 PM. Following a presentation, those attending will gather in small groups where they will have the opportunity to ask further questions and submit any comments. Sawrey says all of this input will be compiled and presented to the Board of Education so they can make a final decision about implementing the balanced calendar.

The school system has also developed a special web page where they are continually posting frequently asked questions about the balanced calendar. You can view those by visiting www.cabellcountyschools.com, and clicking on the “Balanced Calendar Information Page” link on the right side of the page. You can also click on the related link below.

By Mary Jane “HELL AND HIGH-WATER” Thought for the week: And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Matthew 20:39 (KJV) I live near Mud River and a few weeks ago she came up like a thief in the night. I awoke to find the rolling muddy water had blocked the road to my residence; no fear - have milk and chocolate - can survive for days. But then, the snow did come... I wanted. So God and his seasons are all on schedule, to top that off, the groundhog did see his shadow, and spring is sure to come once again.

Seasons are like grudges we hold, they slowly move one into another, and time passes, the winter woes are soon gone, when we see new blades of grass and the spring buds of everything come back to life once again.

And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32 As the water crawled back in to its boundaries and the snow laid around for days... We feel comfortable again back in our normal conditions, Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice; Ephesians 4:31 As for using the word Hell in my title of hell and high-water, this is slang word that we sometime use to show determination.

One definition of hell in Webster is "any place or state of torment or misery." Which is what can be felt if a grudge exists in your life.

The Bible speaks of hell the abode of the dead; Sheol or Hades.

The word hell is used 31 times in the Old Testament and 23 times in the New Testament - total of 54 times in the Bible (KJV). There is such a place, read the story in the Bible about the rich man and Lazarus.

And he cried and said Father Abraham have mercy on me; and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue, for I am tormented in this flame. Luke 16:24 Place your faith in God today and you can feel a flood of content in your life.

Jesus could return again, morning, night, or noon just as the water came up quickly.

While the high rolling water had me blocked, I did have a” Heluva Good” cheese sandwich to eat -.founded by Perry Messenger in 1925 in his basement; a cheese, that he called his brand "Heluva Good" cheese, sold at Wal-Mart, been in business for 85 years you might want to try.

Prayer: Thank you our Father, for your weather changes, we would be bored without your surprises. Amen.

Although this was a small victory for local officers, they know they're caught in a vicious cycle.

Often, police will see offenders arrested, only to be released and using drugs within days.

"That's a killer for us," said Lilly. "I'd like to see an enhanced penalty on the second and third offense - we're going to have to do something in the court."

The 19-year Milton law enforcement veteran remembers when alcohol and marijuana were in driver's cars. Now, it's life-threatening drugs.

"Then, it was more alcohol than anything," said Lilly. "Now, it's pills and meth, and with that comes more violence...but, it's everywhere, crime is getting more drug-oriented and more violent."

Why do drivers feel the need to actually drive in the turn lanes on the highways?

We were out over the weekend and a car kept driving in the turn lane to get onto Route 60, I don’t understand why people can’t see that the arrows are for turning.

The lanes are for getting onto the road, stop and look and then get into the correct lane.

When one lane is backed up and a driver is going to make a turn, I have seen them drive up to the light and then stop. This could make for an accident and I have seen that happen.

Turning onto the highway from a parking lot when the traffic is stopped and make your turn could lead to a collision when someone is driving in the center lane.

We used to call the lane, first come, first serve since the first car that gets to the turn lane gets to go.

Just a thought when out driving, try to be courteous. I know it is difficult but maybe people are having a tough time and need a break.

Speaking of breaks, would it do any harm to give big trucks and other drivers a break on the Interstate and highways? You could be the driver who prevents an accident.

Just a thought for all of us who are out there on the roads. Remember, safety is of the Lord.

Co-owner Brandi Hinkle described the essence of their job.

“It’s all about making people feel better,” said Hinkle.

Ferguson agreed, “Massage can do so much in providing relaxation, increasing flexibility, helping with insomnia, fatigue and the lymphatic system.”

Co-owner Chrissy Shiltz is happy to help clients. Shiltz also realizes the powerful effects massage can have on people.

“It’s overwhelming to know we can help somebody like that,” the area resident said. “It’s also a stress reliever, not just for the client, but for us too.”

Shiltz and her staff chose Milton, not only because the city has no business like Serenity, but because of the history and peacefulness the area provides.

Milton Mayor Tom Canterbury was happy to have the spa.

“This is awesome - we welcome all businesses to Milton and encourage all to support them,” said Canterbury. “Main Street is like the center of the world; it’s a growing area here, in Milton. Huntington is full, the east part of the county is full - this is the next place, here…Milton.”

Huntington resident Todd Harshbarger agreed. After a quick massage, Harshbarger spoke of his experience at the new spa.

“This is a place to come relax, wind down and get away from stress - it’s soothing,” he said. “Kristy and the others are going to do a good job, and I believe the business will be very successful.”

After a few minutes with the co-owners, it’s clear they are more than a staff: they’re a family. Their close bond and warm kindness radiates off their smiles. The presence of joy and peace abound inside the spa.

Serenity Day Spa truly is a serene place.

It is open 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday.

Remembering our Frontier Outdoorsmen

David Payne Sr.

Column by David Payne Sr. davidpayne@theputnamstandard.com

Over the next few weeks – with a few interruptions here and there – I'll be discussing some of our greatest frontier outdoorsmen.

If you've ever read “Last of the Mohicans” or seen the movie, you get this impression that people just walked around bashing people's skulls open with tomahawks. That's actually fairly accurate.

When the white settlers began arriving in the mid 1700s, there was, amongst the Indians, a culture that had been extremely violent for generations.

When the Ohio Indian wars

ended in the mid 1790s (ended because the Indians were either dead or moved west), there were constant, brutal wars going amongst the Indians since the early 1600s. All that started because Europeans started wearing beaver-felt hats.

In the 1600s, the Iroquois Confederacy tribes in New York started trading with the Europeans. They traded beaver hides – which were used to make the hats – for all kinds of things, including steel knives, tomahawks, steel for making metal arrowheads and matchlock guns. That was a gamechanger.

Harry Turtledove wrote this novel, “Guns of the South,” where these guys go back in time and give Robert E. Lee a bunch of Soviet AK-47 rifles. Now armed with 20th-Century assault rifles, Lee's Army of Northern Virginia rolls over Grant's army of muzzleloaders, captures Washington D.C., and the South wins the war.

It was like that. Only it was real.

When Beaver became scarce, the Iroquois eyeballed the Ohio Country (modern-day Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio), where, naturally, various other tribes lived.

With their modern steel hatchets, steel knives, arrows with metal tips and matchlock firearms, they steamrolled over tribes of Indians literally fighting

with Stone-Age weapons. Many Ohio tribes were decimated and others fled, which brought them against other tribes, especially in the South, or scattered them into small pockets around the country.

The Lakota Indians, a tribe of the Sioux Confederacy for which North and South Dakota are named, were driven all the way from Ohio to beyond the Mississippi River, where they developed a nomadic lifestyle on the Great Plains.

The Shawnee were pushed as far south as South Carolina, where the Catawba finally drove them out. When the Iroquois' power began to decline in the early 1700s, the Shawnee moved back into Ohio. They were very tired of moving. When settlers began arriving, they met a Shawnee nation that was very belligerent, thanks to a century of suffering.

It was a very complex relationship, however, between Indians and whites. Europe still needed fur – a commodity the Indians were very good at getting. It wasn't just beaver, the Indians also traded skins of deer, raccoon – basically any wild mammal they could kill. In exchange, they got all kinds of things they wanted and it wasn't just weapons. They traded for combs, mirrors, needles, pins, virtually anything.

Adventurous guys like Wetzel, O'Brien (who is one of my ancestors) and Hughes were never much for farming, which was hard, boring work. In another century, they might have been fighter pilots or astronauts, but in their century, they found employment as scouts and guides. Every traveling group needed some renowned Indian fighter and scout to lead the way and watch for sign of hostile Indians.

Even then, safety was not guaranteed. John Madison, brother of the then-future president James Madison, was killed by Indians while surveying along the Little Kanawha River in 1786. The most renowned Indian fighter of all, Wetzel himself, was his guide on that expedition.

Nor could Hughes help gunsmith (and cattle driver) Nicholas Carpenter during a 1791 cattle drive to Marietta. The cattle drive was attacked by Indians. Hughes escaped. Carpenter was crippled from a previous wound and hid in a pond. He died with a tomahawk blow to the head.

To give you an idea just how complex these relationships were, Carpenter had earlier fixed the rifle of the one of attacking Indians. Had that Indian recognized Carpenter before that fatal blow, he probably would have saved his life. You could have an Indian in your store trading furs

and that night, stealing your cattle.

To make it even more complex, you had all these tribes with different personalities.

The Delawares, who lived throughout present-day West Virginia, were kind, easy-going people – like somebody you'd find playing checkers in a barber shop – but the Shawnee, Miami and Wyandot were bad news.

The problem was the settlers, most coming from New England, couldn't tell the difference. People like Wetzel, Hughes and O'Brien could tell the difference, but often – and O'Brien seems to be the exception to this – didn't care and it could be as dangerous for Indians as anyone else.

In 1788 Wetzel was employed as a hunter for the town of Marietta as the negotiations for the Treaty of Harmar were taking place. As Seneca Chief Tegunteh walked to the fort to resume negotiations, Wetzel stepped out from behind a tree and bludgeoned him to death.

To make matters worse, there were these foreign governments (first the French, then the British) stirring up Indians, encouraging them – and sometimes even paying them - to murder American settlers.

March and trout stockings should resume in April.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers plans to drain and clean the stilling basin at R. D. Bailey Lake in Wyoming/Mingo counties. Trout typically are stocked in the stilling basin below the dam and downstream. This work is scheduled for late March and is expected to be completed by April 4, 2013. Due to the scheduled draining, trout will not be stocked in the stilling basin until after the work is completed.

Trout will be stocked downstream according to the normal schedule.

New Creek Lake, in Grant County, will not be stocked until the lake has some water in it. The Natural Resources Conservation Service drained it a couple of years ago to facilitate repairs to the water-release structure. After partial filling, NRCS will test the gates used to regulate the amount of water discharged from the lake. If the tests are satisfactory, the lake will be filled to its normal pool level. Trout stocking is expected to begin later this spring.

This is a story from November that I missed initially, but I thought it interesting enough to

pass on anyway. An Alaska man recently was able to survive an encounter with a mother bear defending her cubs by playing dead.

The unidentified man stumbled upon a sow with two cubs about 20 feet in front of him.

The bear started to walk off, but his dog went over to sniff the cubs – something mother bears don't take kindly to. When the dog ran back to the man, the sow chased the dog. The man rolled up in a ball and played dead. With the dog barking the entire time, the bear grabbed his foot and pulled him, checked on her cubs, came back to the man, bit his foot and ran off.

I once stumbled upon a mother bear and two cubs while deer hunting with a longbow on Klondike Ridge in Tyler County. I came over a very steep ridge and stopped when I saw two cubs off to the right. The mother was to my left. Now in extreme-super-stealth mode, sneaked back up the hill, over the ridge. Once I slipped over the ridge and down to the first flat on the other side, I ran. I mean ran.

Outdoor roundup The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources will be holding public meetings across the state next month to allow people to review and comment on the proposed 2013 hunting regulations for white-tailed deer, wild turkey, black bear and boar and the proposed 2014-2015 general hunting and trapping regulations. These meetings will be held from 6 - 8 p.m. on March 18 and March 19, and the public is encouraged to attend.

For the last decade or so, the meetings are held in an “open house” format, instead of the school-assembly-style meetings they had when I was a young reporter attending them. The DNR says this allows more public interaction and lets people show up any time they want. That's true.

What's also true is that it keeps one nut from derailing the entire meeting, which used to often be the case. Deadline for written comments is April 5, 2013.

One of the meetings will be held in Milton at the West Virginia Pumpkin Park office building on March 18.

The proposed regulations, etc.

will first be discussed at the DNR quarterly meeting at the DNR office in South Charleston Feb. 24 at 1 p.m. It is your right to attend if you want. The public is welcome.

The DNR will hold its next instructor training for the Archery in the Schools (AIS) Program April 9 and 10 at Mid-State Archery in Flatwoods. The program is the DNR's largest – and most successful - educational program. It has introduced archery to more than 84,000 students as part of their physical education classes in nearly 300 West Virginia schools.

The program teaches Olympicstyle, target archery in both public and private schools Grades 4 through 12.

Schools may offer the program only with a certified instructor, usually preferably a physical education instructor or coach. The DNR only has about four training sessions per year and the class size is limited to 25 and fills up fast. As an added incentive, teachers taking this training may be eligible to receive Continuing Education Hours – provided they submit their paperwork to their principal before the end of the school year.”

The deadline to apply is March 29. The training costs $25 for all school employees and $50 for non-school employees. This fee will be paid to WVDNR – Archery in the Schools Program (via check, money order, or exact currency only) during the first morning of the training. To register, call Krista Snodgrass at (304) 558-2771 or contact her via email at Krista.R.Snodgrass@wv.gov.

The DNR announced several changes to the trout-stocking this season.

Trout stocking of Laurel Fork of Holly River in Webster County will be delayed as a result of ongoing work at Holly River State Park. The park is currently closed as contractors work to restore power and repair infrastructure that was damaged by Superstorm Sandy.

Stocking may resume sometime in March.

Trout stocking of Boley Lake and Glade Creek (of Manns Creek) in Fayette County also will be delayed due to replacement of the bridge that spans Glade Creek and provides access to the stream and lake. Work on the new bridge is expected to be completed by late

Christin’s Corner

By Christin Daugherty Dear Readers, This week, instead of answering one of your questions, I thought I would post my own if ya don’t mind. I’m sure that most of you out there have a child, grandchild, niece, nephew, or whatever, attending a public school. Personally, my daughter is in her first year of middle school and, to be quite frank, that alone could cause a mom to require some therapy, but I digress.

So the problem, which has been the same problem for kids since the beginning of time I’m sure, is bullying. My daughter either gets bullied, or witnesses someone else getting bullied, every single day at her new, BIG school. I think, for the most part, she handles it pretty well. After all, her mother is a bartender and a black-belt in sarcasm. Wink, wink.

I, myself, can recall countless times that I was bullied in or after school, mostly by older kids. And my mother would always tell me to just ignore them. She said that “the bullies get their satisfaction out of your reaction.” This was actually pretty good advice. It

worked rather well for me most of the time, except for with this one pesky girl. Still, to this day, I don’t know what I ever did to her.

She was just plain mean. She used to say awful things about me on the bus on the way home, in front of EVERYBODY! So, one day, I’d just had enough. I don’t know where it came from; I don’t even remember exactly what I said. I just got up, got right in her face, and gave it right back to her.

She left me alone after that. I’m pretty sure she remained a miserable human being even through adulthood, but, again…I digress.

Anyway, the problem with kids today is that they are either too sensitive or too insensitive. Bullying is rampant among schoolage children, from the little ones to the high-schoolers. And the power that these bullies now have is quite terrifying! Not only can they harass you at school, and on the bus, but now they can do it over the internet for the whole world to see! Teenagers are even going so far as to devastatingly taking their own lives because of being bullied. This

needs to stop and it needs to stop NOW! You can tell the kids to ignore it, like my mom used to do, but I believe there is only so much a young person can take. You can tell them to stand up for themselves, and to not let anyone push them around. But if my daughter did that all the time she would be in a fight every day, and that’s not good either. No matter what I tell her to do, I can tell that being bullied is affecting her selfesteem, and to me that’s just unacceptable - because she is AMAZING and deserves to feel amazing!

So what is the right solution?

Or is there one? I want to hear from YOU! Send me your advice or testimonial to christin@theputnamstandard.com. Anything I could use to share with my babygirl about how to better handle a situation with a bully, or just another example of what other people have been through would be greatly appreciated! I look forward to reading your stories, and can’t wait to hear what you all come up with!

“Life is a fight, but not everyone’s a fighter. Otherwise, bullies would be an endangered species.” ― Andrew Vachss, Terminal *The opinions of this column are solely the opinions of this individual writer and are not the opinions of the Putnam Standard or Cabell Standard newspapers. *

agement – April 25 Instruction will include information on projects targeted toward multiple age groups, such as school-based youth projects and accessible gardens for seniors. Participants can tour a youth garden near the Barnett Center implemented by the SCRATCH Project, a sustainable agriculture initiative led by WVSU Extension Service.

Each workshop costs $5. To register, contact Brad Cochran at (304) 541-3301 or bcochran2@wvstateu.edu. The Barnett Center is located at 1524 10th Avenue in Huntington.
