Turnout low, but expected for primary

By Dave Pearce In a Primary Election called a “disappointing but not unexpected” turnout on Tuesday, less than 20 percent of registered voters made it to the polls. And in the most deeply contested local election, Trent VanHaaften edged political newcomer Jake Warrum by a count of 1087 to 801. VanHaaften will now face another political newcomer in Republican Craig Goedde in the fall. Goedde collected 1362 votes on the GOP side of the election.

In another race of local interest, Jasper businessman Mike Braun easily defeated Luke Messer and Todd Rokita not only locally, but district wide. Braun will face off against Democrat incumbent Joe Donnelly in the fall for United States Senator.

On the GOP side, incumbent Larry Bucshon received 67 percent of the vote in Posey County, easily outdistancing Rachel Covington and Richard Moss. Bucshon will face William Tanoos in the fall.

Matt Hostettler easily captured the Posey

County Vote for the GOP candidate for State Representative in District 64. Hostettler got nearly 85 percent of the vote while Bruce Ungetheim received about nine percent and Ken Beckman received seven percent. The remainder of the Posey County votes were unchallenged. Republican Incumbent Jim Tomes will face off against Edie Hardcastle in the race for State Senator and Democrat Stephen Folz will face Republican incumbent Wendy McNamara in District 76.

Hostetter appointed junior high principal

By Dave Pearce Exciting things are happening in Marc Hostetter’s life. Earlier this year, the Mount Vernon teacher and coach was inducted into the University of Southern Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame. But on Monday evening, Hostetter was appointed as Mount Vernon Junior High School Principal for the 2018-19 school year.

Hostetter has served as assistant principal while coaching the Mount Vernon High School boys’ basketball team. Hostetter is from Lyons, Ind., and attended White River Valley Junior High School. Following his stud-

James T. Harrington and his police dog, Jagger, were introduced to the Cynthiana Town Board at Wednesday’s meeting by Town Marshal Mike McGregor, at right.

By Pam Robinson At the Thursday, May 10, meeting, the Mount Vernon Board of Public Works and Safety approved the request from the Order of the Eagles to hold a carnival and street festival on their lot from May 23-26. The request had been tabled at the previous meeting two weeks earlier until a carnival representative appeared before the board and supplied more information.

Carnival representative Marty Brady with Brady’s Amusements satisfied the inquiries of the board

regarding provision for all insurance and electricity requirements. In addition, Brady said empty trucks would be parked in the Eagles’ parking lot, and the approximately 15-20 carnival workers will drive back and forth for work every day from Princeton.

Brady designated street closings from the west side of Main Street to the east side of College Street. He said he wanted carnival equipment to arrive in town around 6 p.m. Mon-

Sight to behold St. Matthew’s boasts variety of eye-catching features

By Pam Robinson St. Matthew Catholic Church contains enough charm and creativity to merit a visit to the familiar landmark on the 2018 Vintage Home and Garden Tour sponsored by the Women’s Fund Board of the Posey County Community Foundation. The doors will be open to the public for studying the beautiful church architecture and stained glass windows from noon to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 2, since Mass starts at 5 p.m.

Parishioner Tom Scheller shared his knowledge last Tuesday, May 8, about the history of his parish, including the beloved church and some of its special features. Scheller opens pages in a church history submitted previously by Thelma Boarman to aid in the history lesson.

The current church was actually the second built for St. Matthew parishioners. The first church was built in 1856 and stood where the playground is located now. Not named until then, the Mount Vernon church

then fell under the patronage of St. Matthew and was declared a parish. Prior to that time, St. Matthew had existed as a “mission church,” meeting in homes of the faithful, and served by itinerant priests.

By 1879, St. Matthew parish built the same splendid church used for worship now, the very structure with no add-ons. It cost $10,000 to build, a sizable sum indeed by 19th century standards.

From approximately 1917-1924,

Just for fun

A T M

B B R

I like words. Obviously, since I write this column. And this column is, I hope, fun to read, and you just may learn something, too.

Sometimes, OK, often, when I read written material, I cringe at the grammar used by some. Especially cringe-worthy: incorrect use of your (showing ownership) and you’re (contraction for you are). Or their (again, ownership), there (location), and they’re (contraction for they are).

Geesh – like ďŹ ngernails on a chalkboard to some of us.

And, as we all know, the English language is full of words and phrases that we (well, some of us!) sometimes wonder about. For example, why is abbreviation such a long word? Is there another word for synonym?

I was doing some random searching on the computer and found several lists of questions that provide some food for thought: How do “Don’t Walk on the Grass� signs get there? If a word in the dictionary were misspelled, how would we know? If a store is open 24/7, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the door?

What was the best thing before sliced bread? These quirky questions probably won’t keep you up at night. And who spends time putting these lists together anyway??

Then there are the questions that actually have answers. It’s just a sampling of things you didn’t know you wanted to know!

They might also be good in a trivia contest sometime. Hey, you never know!

You probably have given yourself a

headache over this one: Why are the letters of the alphabet in the order that they are?

This is an intriguing but unanswerable question. The ancestor of our alphabet is the Phoenician alphabet of nineteen characters (representing only consonants), dating from about the 14th century BC. Around 1000 BC this was used as a model by the Greeks, who added characters to represent vowels. This in turn became the model for the Etruscan alphabet, from which the ancient Roman alphabet, and subsequently all Western alphabets, are derived. Characters have been added over the centuries and others lost, according to the need to represent certain sounds. But the basic order has remained the same. Indeed, it may go back to North Semitic, the ancestor of Phoenician, which developed about 1700 BC. In other words, we do it like this because we’ve always done it like this, but why we did it in the ďŹ rst place, no one knows.

Why is the person who takes care of your money called a broker? It seems that the etymology (study of the meaning of words) of the word broker comes from the French word brocour which meant retailer/ peddler, as in somebody that sells something. This is thought to originate from Portuguese alborcar, that means barter, which seems to ďŹ t, as brokers facilitate selling and buying of investments.

Why do we call them hamburgers when there is no pork in them? The short answer is that it came from Hamburg, Germany.

Hamburger started with the Tatars (or Tartars), a nomadic people who invaded central Asia and eastern Europe in the Middle Ages. The Tatars ate their shredded beef raw (hence the name “steak tartare� these days). According to one account, they tenderized their beef by putting it between

the saddle and the horse as they rode (how yummy!). When the Tatars introduced the food to Germany, the beef was mixed with local spices and fried or broiled and became known as Hamburg steak. German emigrants to the United States brought Hamburg steak with them. It showed up on New York restaurant menus in the 1880s. Hamburgers became a sensation as sandwiches at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis.

Have you ever hit the inside of your elbow in just the right spot and felt a tingling or prickly kind of dull pain? That’s your funny bone! It doesn’t really hurt as much as it feels weird. The “funny bone� got its nickname because of that funny feeling you get after you hit it. But your funny bone

isn’t actually a bone at all. Running down the inside part of your elbow is a nerve called the ulnar nerve. The ulnar nerve lets your brain know about feelings in your fourth and ďŹ fth ďŹ ngers. It’s also one of the nerves that controls some movement of your hand.

All these words. Endless combinations with endless meanings. Communication at its best, or worst, depending on how the words are used. Words that hurt. Words that heal. Words that make us laugh. Words that make us feel tingly all over. Written or spoken, words are important. Be careful how you use words because once spoken, they can’t be retrieved. Say “I love you� often. Because those words are all that really matters.

Guest Column: Robert Koehler, Journalist and Author Let the prayer continue “. . . may all members be mindful that the institutions and structures of our great nation guarantee the opportunities that have allowed some to achieve great success, while others continue to struggle.

May their eorts these days guarantee that there are not winners and losers under new tax laws but beneďŹ ts balanced and shared by all Americans.â€?

These words freaked out Paul Ryan enough that he tried to get rid of Father Pat Conroy, the House chaplain who uttered this prayer back in November, when the debate on the massive overhaul of the tax

G

G

system was going on.

What stunned me about this relatively small national controversy wasn’t so much the fact that Ryan’s action blew up in his face and he wound up having to “unďŹ reâ€? Father Conroy, but the fact that the prayer got to him in the ďŹ rst place — that he noticed it and had to defend himself (and his ideology) against it.

Moral accountability, ladies and gentlemen! It’s been banned from the halls of government for quite some time, but when it shows up it’s still upsetting to the powerful.

They may not fear a tamed,

caged democracy, but they fear a reckless chaplain calling out in prayer for a fair system of taxation.

Let the prayer continue.

As Gina Haspel — “Bloody Gina� — Donald Trump’s nominee to head the CIA, begins her congressional hearing, let awareness of the wrong of torture seize the powerful.

Let remorse and outrage cry out in the hardest of hearts. Let truth ood the American conscience: “As the CIA’s video cameras rolled,â€? writes Sarah Jones in the New Republic, “security guards shackled Abu

Zubaydah to a gurney and interrogators poured water over his mouth and nose until he began to suocate. They slammed him against a wall, conďŹ ned him for hours in a coďŹƒn-like box, and deprived him of sleep. “The 31-year-old Zubaydah begged for mercy, saying that he knew nothing about the terror group’s future plans. The CIA oďŹƒcial in charge (Haspel) . . . mocked his complaints, accusing Zubaydah of faking symptoms of psychological breakdown. The torture continued.â€?

Let this man’s cry for mercy be heard today. Let it not be too late for powerful men and women across the planet hear the cries of refugees, of children, of the wrongfully imprisoned. Let the Haspel hearings be more than a struggle between political parties, between competing clichĂŠs about national security. Let not merely torture but war itself be on the table and no longer protected by lies and by language itself — “enhanced interrogation techniques,â€? “collateral damageâ€? — from its long overdue moral accountability.

And let the prayer continue.

Let the United States not go to war with Iran or foment a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. Let sanity — please, oh Lord — prevail, and the reempowered voices of war and dominance return to shame and silence. Let the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Ac-

Those few of you who actually read this column on a regular basis will recall my completely justified response to Peg’s destruction of my weekend by sentencing me to help her haul, open and spread 120 fifty-pound bags of brown mulch at JPeg Ranch. You might say, “Well, Peg worked too.� But you see, Peg lives for such opportunities so to her it is not work. On the other hand, as for me, a ball game viewed from the couch is a more appropriate way to spend a Saturday.

I was quite astonished and even a little hurt when several readers of last week’s article weighed in with suggestions on what I should do with the mulch. It surprised me that everyone who responded so uncharitably sided with Peg. After all, she was the one responsible for the mulch being there in the first place. I will relate a few of the unkind, and even inappropriate, suggestions.

Neighbors, who need not be named as we only have two, came over during the mulching marathon last weekend and instead of offering sweat offered advice. “Why don’t you just put all the bags out while Peg is planting the garden

and the new flowers?� I did not respond what I was thinking but chose to just pretend I heard nothing.

Then at Sara’s Harmony Way Coffee Shop on Sunday morning Barb McConnell who had been the initial instigator of the mulch acquisition from the New Harmony Garden Club asked Peg about the progress of the mulching program which gave Peg an opportunity in front of the entire round table crowd to point out my poor attitude.

Then I received an email from the Posey County Jail referencing the previous article and making a rather rude suggestion of what I could do with the mulch. How do those people access the Internet anyway?

But, as is often the case with my big sister who read the article from the safety of her home in Missouri, Janie took Peg’s side again. Janie, who was always allowed by our parents to lord it over her three brothers, first mentioned that Peg was just trying to beautify JPeg Ranch for our grandson’s upcoming wedding. Then she sarcastically suggested if I was too lazy to properly spread the mulch before the wedding I could just cover the piles with white satin.

tion be the model for resolving future international conict, not the bullying arrogance of You Know Who, oh Lord.

And speaking of nuclear war, let us, oh Lord, ďŹ nd the courage and wherewithal, as a national entity, to do more than “be against it,â€? even with eloquent language, as President Barack Obama was when, in 2016, he addressed a crowd at the site of one of humanity’s deepest scars: “Seventy-one years ago, on a bright cloudless morning,â€? the president said, “death fell from the sky and the world was changed. A ash of light and a wall of ďŹ re destroyed a city and demonstrated that mankind possessed the means to destroy itself. “Why do we come to this place, to Hiroshima? We come to ponder a terrible force unleashed in a not-so-distant past. We come to mourn the dead, including over 100,000 Japanese men, women and children, thousands of Koreans, a dozen Americans held prisoner. “Their souls speak to us.

They ask us to look inward, to take stock of who we are and what we might become.

“. . . The wars of the modern age teach us this truth.

Hiroshima teaches this truth.

Technological progress without an equivalent progress in human institutions can doom us. The scientiďŹ c revolution that led to the splitting of an atom requires a moral revolution as well.â€?

Let us never again say such words and then approve spending more than a trillion dollars to upgrade our nuclear weapons, even as we hold other nations accountable for the weapons they possess or someday may possess. Let us ďŹ nd, in the depths of this prayer, the collective courage and strength necessary to bring about humanity’s moral revolution.

Let us learn to see beyond a longing for wealth and power, and as we see the possible future, let us dismantle the politics and economics of war, of military industrialism, of a belief only in the pseudo-peace of threatened mutual destruction.

Let us face the insanity of nuclear war and nuclear winter and vow that it will never happen. Let us bestow mercy on ourselves, and on our children.

MAY 15, 2018 Audrey Gray Audrey Jenny Gray (nee Young) died in Tucson, Arizona on May 3, 2018 at the age of 94.

She was born on June 9, 1923 in Bunola, Pennsylvania to Annie E. (nee Conaway) and Joe Cephas Young and was the younghild estt off five children.

She graduated with honors from Monongahela (Pa.) High School. World War II was on and Audrey went to work for Bell Telephone Company as an operator. In January 1944 she eloped to Syracuse, N.Y. to marry the love of her life, William Gray, Jr. She was devoted to him for 69 years until his death in 2013. Audrey lived with Bill in Monongahela after the war until 1960 when they moved to Ogden Dunes, Indiana. There, she returned to work for General Telephone. Going from long distance operator to clerk, she became the person of choice for the steel companies experiencing problems. Audrey was always asked for by name. When her union workers went on strike instead of picketing with them she went to Dairy Queen and bought them ice cream treats.

She loved Lake Michigan, the beach and the sand dunes. She did not like sand being tracked into the house.

After Audrey and Bill retired they moved to Oro Valley, Arizona. Many hours were spent watching the desert “critters,” even a mountain lion one day. She and Bill traveled widely, especially visiting Germany, enjoying cruises to Hawaii and Alaska, and tours to the British Isles and New England. A favorite place was Disney World.

Audrey was a beautiful redhead who always dressed stylishly. A world class shopper, visiting sales and discount stores was a must. She regularly rode the South Shore train from Ogden Dunes to the Chicago Loop for a day at Marshall Fields. On the way back to the train she would stop for one vanilla cream chocolate at Fannie May Candies. She shared her sweet tooth with her beloved brown poodle, Brandy. The two had a scoop of vanilla ice cream nightly.

Audrey is survived by her three children; James and wife, Lois, of Mount Vernon, Indiana, William and wife, Cynthia, of Tucson, Arizona, and Connie Voight of Spokane, Washington. She is also survived by nine grandchildren who fondly called her “Grams” and ten great grandchildren.

Smells of a bygone time planted in memory

Madeleine, B I write a lot C P

about the sights and sounds of dierent seasons of the year. We yearn for the bright Spring blossoms in the winter and can’t wait for the colors of autumn.

However, one recent day I was reminded of yet another of our senses that makes our lives joyous. I was driving along when I saw a freshly plowed ďŹ eld, probably waiting for Spring planting to begin. Later on, that same day, I saw a man preparing his large garden plot.

I found myself thinking how great the newly-turned earth smelled. I then realized that I was only tapping into my memories and not really experiencing the odor I knew so well. I might have gotten a whi of the dirt, but it was not very close by and I was in an enclosed vehicle. Just the thought of this familiar Spring happening brought back all the rich smells, just as if I was back in my childhood.

Mr. Smith from Cynthiana always brought his little gray tractor and plow to prepare my grandfather’s large garden plot. I was always hoping that some treasure would be unearthed and could not wait to walk barefooted in the cool dirt. So that smell brings back a time I wish I could re-visit.

There are many examples of how just the smells of so many things make us remember happy times. People from big cities used to come into my New Harmony restaurant, hoping to smell burning leaves in Autumn. Many places prohibit open burning.

When we travel to Florida, there is a distinct odor of the ocean, almost as soon as we cross the state line. I equate Memorial Day with the sweet smell of peonies, because my grandparents used to sell dozens of bundles of them for cemetery use.

Even the lingering smoky smell of ďŹ reworks on Independence Day is part of the ambience of this great part of the summer.

Of course, one of the most obvious examples is about food.

Would a movie seem as much fun without the smell of popcorn? Even though many folks use artiďŹ cial Christmas trees, burning a pine-scented candle makes it seem correct. When someone’s neighbor is preparing hamburgers or steaks on their back-yard grill, the smoky goodness drifts around on the air, and makes everyone hungry.

Many realtors bake a fresh batch of cookies just before they show a house to a prospective buyer to make it seem like home.

The big kettle of wassail I let simmer on the stove at Christmas sets the holiday mood.

Even unpleasant odors make it into our brains. I can remember the hot musty smell in older homes, when I visited older folks as a child. My grandmother’s closet was near the furnace

State Senator, Jim Tomes, meets with Posey County resident Sta Sergeant Robert Beste before Beste boards the Honor Flight to Washington, D.C. Saturday, May 5. Eighty-ďŹ ve veterans were own to Washington, D.C., sponsored by Honor Flight Southern Indiana, where they visited war memorials. “Sta Sergeant Beste put his life on the line for our country,â€? Tomes said. “It was an honor to meet with him and shake his hand, and I am thankful to the Honor Flight program for their work to recognize him and the rest of the distinguished veterans.â€?

vent and it had a very distinctive smell, along with the pungent moth balls that were common back then. I had a little coat made of wool which smelled fairly weird when it got wet.

Madeleine, your Aunt Heather and I love the smell of new books, as we turn the pages.

Many folks choose to read on their electronic devices now, but then this element is missing.

She remembers the smell of freshly made sawdust, because Grandpa created a lot of it when we were in the decorative painting business.

Along with that goes the odor of stain and varnish. Heather was a young child then, so this is ďŹ rmly implanted into her memory bank.

A lot of people swear by the fresh odor of laundry hung out on clotheslines. It would bring too much pollen into the house for many folks now. When we were young, Grandpa wore a cologne called Jade East, and I am sure I would instantly recognize it. Heavy perfumes and soaps make me sneeze, and I have always preferred light oral scents. So many owers take us back to bygone summers. The rambling roses by our mailbox were a joy.

Grandpa always makes sure that I plant some marigolds every Spring, and I would wager their strong smell is rooted someplace in his childhood.

Puppies, kittens and human babies have their own enticing smell. I haven’t mentioned newly mowed lawns, honeysuckle, lilacs, and freshly-baked apple pies, but we all know about those.

There are so many things that could be on this list, but Madeleine, take time to notice what you are smelling during dierent times of your life, because they will someday be the greatest memories of all.

The Posey County Farm Service Agency (FSA) County Office Committee adopted the 2018 maintenance default rates that were set by the Indiana State FSA Committee for farms enrolled. Farms participating in the annual Agricultural Risk Coverage (ARC) and Price Loss Coverage (PLC), the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), and other programs administered by the Farm Service Agency are subject to these penalties for failure to maintain the acreage in a workmanship like manner. The penalties are 18.25 dollars per acre times three for the non-control of weeds (including noxious weeds), insects, and/or rodents.

The penalty for wind or water erosion is 20 dollars per acre times three. These penalties apply on all acreage, including both cropland and noncropland on a farm enrolled in any of the USDA programs. The dollar per acre amount is considered to be the cost of taking the preventative measures without being fined and the multiplier is an incentive for enrollees to take the necessary action to regain control on their own. Noxious weeds in the State of Indiana are seven in number, and are listed n the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) website. They are namely Canadian thistle, purple loosestrife, multiflora rose, burcucumber, Columbus grass, shattercane and Johnson grass. These are the common names given to these weeds.

A wonderful life: McFadin’s journey full of art, books and family

By Pam Robinson Geraldine “Gerry” (Curtis) McFadin gives a swift, sure oneword answer for living since February 11, 1922. Work. The 96-year-old Mount Vernon native relates how she has overcome adversity throughout her life.

“I had to work all my life. I wanted to work,” she states.

“My dad worked. My mom worked. I lived through the Great Depression.”

One of six children born, two boys and four girls, born to Wilfred and Katherine Curtis, Gerry grew up on a farm in the Upton area near Black Cemetery. She and her siblings—one sister still lives today—all learned to pitch in and help with farm chores and gardening.

“We had plenty to eat,” Gerry recalls.

Gerry credits her positive attitude in large part to the teachers and friends who supported her as much as her family did in childhood and beyond. She attended grades 1-8 at Jeffries School. Because of a cleft palate, Gerry recalls she had to receive special permission every year to move from one grade to the next. All teachers welcomed her to their classrooms.

“I had wonderful teachers,” she says. “I loved going to school.”

At MVHS, she met her “wonderful art teacher,” Mrs. Beavers. When Gerry graduated from MVHS in 1940, she stayed another year to assist Mrs. Beavers in teaching art to elementary school students and to paint a mural at the high school.

She was awarded a two-year scholarship to attend commercial art school in Indianapolis. She earned her room and board as a live-in housekeeper and nanny for a family there. Unfortunately, her study ended abruptly.

Gerry studied commercial art from September to May until,

Seeds of the Sower by Michael Guido Martin Luther, who is recognized for his work in reforming the church, had one deep desire that drove him every day of his life: he wanted everyone to have a copy of the Bible and a song book in their own language. He had an unswerving belief that people needed God to speak to them directly through His Word and the songs they sang during times of worship at home. This was not a new idea, but one that had its beginnings in the earliest worship of the Lord.

Music and God’s Word have always been a very important ingredient in worship. When there is joy in the hearts of the faithful, praising God is a natural part of life and is always evident in times of worship. With shame and sorrow the captives of Babylon admitted this in Psalm 137:4. As their captors ridi-

hour days to secure rivets on two-passenger fighter planes until World War II ended. She still keeps her first and last pay stubs to reveal her pay raise from her starting wage of $2.50/hr. to $3.00/hr. She is proud of her hard work for her country.

After the war ended, Gerry came home to Mount Vernon and worked for Mrs. Dorothy Weilbrenner, in charge of home economics. The job allowed Gerry to save money for the repair of her cleft palate.

Her dentist’s wife, Nancy Eckerty, asked for art lessons from Gerry. Their relationship turned into a friendship and led Gerry to reconnect with Ruth Kishline, a previous high school classmate. Their meeting again was nothing short of divine intervention.

For over 35 years, Ruth Kishline’s Country Clothes Shop in Evansville featured Gerry’s finely sketched ads in the local Evansville daily and Sunday newspapers. So grateful for God’s blessing of working as an artist, Gerry cannot contain her joy.

“My life’s been wonderful,” she comments. “I’ve had so many people to be good to me. People I don’t even know have looked out for me.”

While working at Kishline’s, Gerry stayed busy making a home with her husband, Paul Melvin McFadin, who lived until 1990. The couple wed in 1950, and raised three children together.

During those years, Gerry served as a charter member and President of the Jolly Housewives Extension Homemakers Club and remained active in it for 50 years. She has always been active in her beloved home church, Black’s Chapel (now

culed them for it they said, “How can we sing the songs of the Lord while in a foreign land?” Sin separated them from God and they lost the joy of their salvation. It will do the same to us.

In the Old Testament we find many occasions of God’s children coming together to sing and shout and praise the Lord. In Psalm 95:1 the “worship leader” looked at the crowd before him and said let’s “sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.” That invitation remains open to us today.

When we pause and ponder the grace of God in saving us and becoming our “Rock” - our only source of safety and security in times of trial and temptation, defeat and despair - it’s time to lift our voices in worship.

in one form or another, must be dealt with; Jesus died for the sins of the world, that is how God decided to deal with sin.

The purpose of an intervention is to bring light upon the problem in a loving, caring way that will lead to restoration. A person cannot come to Jesus’ salvation without an acknowledgment of their sin. Why grab the

life preserver is you are not drowning? In an attempt to not appear judgmental Christians are missing out on opportunities to show the love, forgiveness, and saving power of Jesus Christ.

Christians should love the sinner enough to tell them of God’s hatred for sin and how He sent His Son to die to bring sinners to restoration.

God has intervened.

Sermon of the Week: Love the sinner hate the sin

By Pastor Tim Johnson They happened in homes across the land, some have even occurred in restaurants, workplaces, and other places of business. They are called interventions.

During an intervention, friends, family and loved ones will gather to talk to someone about how they are ruining their life and possibly the lives of those around them. The group will show the individual the error of his ways, encourage a turn around from their harmful behavior, offer support, and help as the person goes through counseling and other forms of help.

No one can know for sure, but it would be safe to assume thousands of interventions have taken place across our land through the years. Mostly, they happen because of substance abuse, but sometimes there were other reasons. I know of a group of people who held an intervention for a man cheating on his wife.

Interventions are an act of love. Why invest the time and effort into a person’s life if you do not care?

Sometimes a person will listen and heed the advice, get counseling, and make a concentrated effort to change their ways. Sadly, however, sometimes a person will not admit they are doing anything wrong. “I don’t drink that much” “I only smoke pot to unwind a little” are examples of statements made by someone who does not believe they have a problem. The fact that eight of his closest friends are confronting him about this situation should be more than a hint, but alas, at times, all of us will ignore the obvious when we are unwilling to see it.

There is a trend in Christianity. In an attempt to be tolerant, and not be judgmental, Christians are accepting,

or at least silent, about sin.

Going hand in hand with this trend is a growing belief within society - “If you disagree with me, you must hate me.” It seems like Christians have lost their hatred of sin and that the world has lost the understanding that criticism and differences of opinions can come from someone who loves them.

Jesus shows the balance of hating the sin, but loving the sinner in John 8.

The Scribes and Pharisees bring an adulterous woman to Jesus. According to the Old Testament law adultery was punishable by death.

Verse six informs us of the intent of the men that brought her to Jesus - they were trying to trip Him up.

If He tells them to stone her they could accuse Him of being an unforgiving killer; if He lets her go, then they will charge Him of not following the law of Moses.

Their motives were lot love and compassion or even an attempt to followv the law.

Their reasons were selfserving. By making Jesus look evil, they would look better (sounds like American politics, but that is a whole different subject).

Jesus wrote some words in the dirt (the Bible does not tell us what He wrote) and said to the men, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.”

Jesus again prints in the dirt, and one by one, the men disperse.

Now there is Jesus and the woman, alone. Jesus asks here where are her accusers.

She tells Him, none are left.

He then says to her, “Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.”

Often, the casting the first stone comment is all we hear of this story. That quote is used many times over to show we are not to be judgmental. Jesus does tell her He will not condemn her,

but He does address her sin, “Go and sin no more.” He shows love and compassion by not condemning her, but He also shows intolerance toward her sin.

The Apostle Paul speaks of restoration - Galatians 6:1, “Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering

thyself, lest thou also be tempted.”

Notice the wording, the verses speak of restoration and a spirit of meekness; sounds like an intervention.

Jesus could not get the heart of the issue with the adulterous woman without bringing up her sin; we cannot help our brother, “overtaken in a fault” without discussing the fault. Sin,

STUDENT OF THE WEEK MICHAEL JOHNSON

Emily Duckworth

Education Club of America, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and a four-year member of the tennis team.

Emily is also very active in Youth, Bible Studies, and various Ministry Teams at New Beginnings Lakeside Church.

Her work there involves weeks of planning, development and execution

of tasks teaching, leading and encouraging youth of our local community as well as a mission project in Honduras.

Emily has been accepted for enrollment at the University of Evansville and is planning to pursue degrees both in English and in Teaching English as a Second Language. One recommendation noted Emily’s exemplary sense of integrity, trustworthiness, and caring attitude. This was clearly shown when on her application, Emily wrote: “Being able to speak English opens doors to a whole new world. Speaking English enables people to have jobs they couldn’t obtain otherwise.

Better jobs allow them to get off the streets and into a real house. I want to be the reason kids are able to live a better and safer life.” Our recipient plans to teach in the states during the school year, and during the summer travel to teach English to kids around the world.

Perhaps one day our recipient will return to fulfill those goals here in the Metropolitan School District of Mount Vernon.

Congratulations, Emily. Best of luck in attaining your dreams.

‘Home tour’ continued from Page A1 Scheller said, the plain glass windows were replaced with the stained glass visitors admire so much today on the north and south walls of the sanctuary. Families donated the windows featuring Mary and Joseph, a few apostles and various saints known as the 14 Holy Helpers. The windows were created in and shipped from Germany.

Around the same time, as evidenced in a 1923 picture of the sanctuary Scheller brings out, the Stations

of the Cross were added between the windows along the north and south walls of the sanctuary. This series of small statues depicts the events of Christ’s crucifixion.

In 1974, Scheller states, the church was remodeled to open the altar area and to remove the communion rails.

Original statuary is placed near the altar. To the side of the altar is a walkin, stone baptismal with cascading waterfall built a few years ago.

Besides Harrington, McGregor told the board that he has two or three other reserves who could be coming on board in the near future to help keep the townspeople safe.

Throughout the meeting, members of the council were grilled as to what they could do in an emergency when McGregor was off duty.

McGregor cited the Indiana Code that made it acceptable for him to live outside the city.

“More than 75 percent of small communities in Indiana are covered with part-time Marshals,” McGregor said. ‘The rule is that the Marshal must be able to respond within a 30-minute window. I am well inside that window.”

Town Board President Todd Kennedy assured the residents that even when McGregor is off, the Posey County Sheriff’s Department and the Indiana State Police are usually nearby to respond to calls.

Another resident, Rex Yarber, questioned what townspeople are supposed to do between the hours of 1-4 a.m. when he suspects a lot of the illegal activity is going on. He suggested that a Neighborhood Watch program should be resurrected and council members did nothing to discourage this community-based crime deterrent.

The recent announcement that eight cameras will now provide 24-hour surveillance at the City Park is hoped to be a deterrent.

During a public hearing section of the meeting, two people indicated they believe the camera money could be better spent on other things, such as a fence around the park. But after hearing all the ideas, the board voted unanimously to go ahead with the camera purchase.

McGregor told the townspeople that he has been making progress on helping rid the town of abandoned vehicles. The fact that some residents were up in arms over the ordinance was evidence that the new ordinance is being enforced.

Town resident Jonathan Chappell appeared to ask why a vehicle had been taken off his property. Chappell said the vehicle was being “parted out”. Chappell indicated that he had called area law enforcement agencies regarding the whereabouts of the vehicle but McGregor disputed Chappell’s claim, stating that he had checked with both the Posey County Sheriff’s Department and the Indiana State Police and neither had record of such a call.

Chappell said the vehicle had been removed and that tire tracks had been left in his yard.

McGregor questioned Chappell as to whether or not he was aware of the 72-hour notice tag that had been placed on the window. At that point, McGregor told Chappell that the vehicle which had been towed was registered to an Evansville resident. At that point, McGregor told Chappell that he was more than willing to work with him and pointed across the street from the town hall and blatantly asked Chappell whether or not the three or four vehicles parked across the street were properly licensed and titled and in running condition. McGregor said he is willing to work with the town’s residents but that the ordinance is going to continue to be enforced.

Soon after that discussion, Yarber again asked for recognition from the board to speak regarding the clean-up ordinance. Town attorney Jason Spindler told Yarber that he could speak regarding the ordinance but that members of the board had been advised not to respond to Yarber, as Yarber has apparently secured an attorney to represent him.

Upon hearing Spindlers response, Yarber turned tartly and said, “I’m done, folks.”

In other business: •Resident Jim Crowder appeared regarding the meter tampering ordinance that was passed a few months ago. Crowder cited several references to his argument regarding the wording of the ordinance to which Spindler responded that each of the Codes Crowder had cited have been repealed. Spindler indicated he is available to talk personally with Crowder outside of the meeting at Crowder’s convenience. Crowder promised to return at the next meeting.

•Carol Hagedorn of the Southwestern Indiana Redevelopment Coalition appeared to remind board members they are nearing the end of the timeframe to apply for matching grants for 2018. The board took her information under advisement.

•Good news was presented that INDOT has announced a matching grant that will allow several streets in Cynthiana to be repaired or resurfaced. The grant calls for the city to pay for 25 percent of the cost and INDOT will pick up 75 percent of the cost. Residents are asked to contact a board member or leave informa-

tion at the Town hall as a list is being formulated for streets to be repaired.

•In the coming summer months, the Board voted to extend the hours of Clerk-Treasurer Debbie Seaton to three full days per week.

•The board voted to contract Whitledge Tree Service to do the work in taking out several dead or dangerous trees at the park. The bid presented by Wabash Tree was $3200 and the Whitledge bid was $2400.

•The board voted to hire Russ Werkmeister to clean up the property at 10218 Evansville Street at a cost of $505. The costs will be passed along to the owner of the property.

•The board approved the purchase of an additional garage door from Evansville Garage Doors at a cost of $1983. That will enable the police car to be kept inside, out of the elements.

•Members of the board were proud to announce that the Memorial Day Program will be held on May 28 at 10:30 at Liberty Cemetery.

Bagpipes will be on hand to enhance the experience.

The next meeting of the Cynthiana Town Council will be held on Wednesday, June 13 at 6 p.m at the Cynthiana Town Hall.

Steve Harding - Edward Jones Financial Advisor Financial Gifts for Your Adult Children Mother’s Day is almost here. If you’re a mother with grown children, you might receive flowers, candy, dinner invitations or some other type of pleasant recognition. However, you might find that you can get more enjoyment from the holiday by giving, rather than receiving. The longestlasting gifts may be financial ones – so here are a few moves to consider: • Contribute to your child’s IRA. If your children have

earned income, they are eligible to contribute to an IRA, which offers tax benefits and an almost unlimited array of investment options.

You can’t contribute directly to another person’s IRA, but you can write your child a check for that purpose. This could be a valuable gift, as many people can’t afford to contribute the maximum yearly amount, which, in 2018, is $5,500, or $6,500 for those 50 or older.

• Give gifts of stock. You know your children pretty well, so you should be familiar with the products they buy. Why not give them some shares of stock in the companies that make these products?

Your children will probably enjoy being “owners” of these companies, and if they weren’t that familiar with how the financial markets work, having these shares in their posses-

sion may greatly expand their knowledge and lead to an even greater interest in investing.

• Donate to a charity in your child’s name. You might want to donate to a charitable organization that your child supports. In years past, such a donation might have earned you a tax deduction, but the new tax laws, which include a much higher standard deduction, may keep many people from itemizing. Still, it’s possible for a charitable gift to provide you with a tax benefit, depending on your age.

If you’re 70 and one-half or older, you must start taking withdrawals from your traditional IRA and your 401(k) or similar employer-sponsored plan, but by moving the withdrawal directly to a qualified charitable group, the money won’t count as part of your adjusted gross income, so, in effect, you can get a tax break

from your generosity.

• Review your estate strategy. Like virtually all parents, you’d probably like to be able to leave some type of legacy to your children, and possibly your grandchildren, too. So, if you haven’t already started working on your estate strategy, consider using Mother’s Day as a launching point. At the very least, you’ll want to write your will, but you may need much more than that, such as a living trust, a durable power of attorney and other documents. And don’t forget to change the beneficiary designations on your life insurance and retirement accounts if you’ve experienced a major life change, such as divorce or remarriage. These designations are powerful and can even supersede whatever instructions you might have left in your will. As you can guess, estate planning can be complex, so you almost certainly will want to work with a legal professional to get your arrangements in order.

Mother’s Day is a good opportunity for your children to show their love for you, and you can do the same for them by helping bolster their longterm security through financial gifts and legacy planning.

Lady Wildcats win Big 8 Conference TAKE A LOOK, WE’RE JUST MINUTES AWAY!

By Dave Pearce Some games are more important than others during the regular season of any high school sport. But to have two of those games in the same week is almost more than a team and a coach can stand…unless you are this year’s Mount Vernon Wildcat softball team.

Gabi Gilpin connected for two home runs including a 3-run go ahead shot in the sixth inning. She was 3-for-3 with four RBIs and two home runs.

But according to Coach Dave Bell, it was a sign gone awry that brought the Wildcats the victory.

“It was a back-and-forth game,” Bell said, as both team entered the game undefeated in conference play. “We went up 2-0 only to have them come back and score two. They came back and went up 3-2 in the fourth then in the bottom of the fourth, we go up 4-3.”

Bell said he was feeling confident until the Alices put two more on the board in the next inning. But like this group of Wildcats have done all season long, they fought back. They tired the score at 5 when the Alices came up in the sixth.

In the sixth, Vincennes put the potential winning run across the plate but again, the Wildcat team was not finished.

Above, the Lady Wildcats celebrate their monumental Big 8 Conference win Thursday afternoon.

At right, Sadie Hobbs is all smiles as she rounds the bases following a homerun during the team’s win over Vincennes. Photos by Garry Beeson “In the top of the seventh, we put a couple of people on and Gilpin came up to bat. She had already hit a home run earlier but we were trying to win a ballgame,” Bell said. “It’s funny now but we had given the sign to squeeze home the go-ahead run. The person on

third base has to acknowledge that she knows the squeeze is on. We know its on but she doesn’t acknowledge. Gabi kept staring at me and I kept looking at the runner at third but she never did

North Posey’s Kyle Stewart breaks school, meet record

By Chris Morlan The North Posey boys’ track team traveled to Tell City for the PAC Championships not once, but twice last week. During the meet last Thursday night, the meet was cancelled due to bad weather and the meet resumed last Friday night.

Heritage Hills won the meet with 117 points, followed by Gibson Southern placing second with 95 points, Forest Park finished third with 87 points, Tell City placed fourth with 79 points, South Spencer finished fifth with 76 points, Southridge placed sixth with 66 points, North Posey tied for seventh place with Pike Central each scoring 30 points, and Tecumseh finished ninth with 14 points.

by Heritage Hills’ Jade Winchell in 1998 with a jump of 22-feet and 10-inches.

Freshman Austin Danhauer was the other highlight for North Posey winning the 400-meter dash in a time of 52.74 seconds. This was also Danhauer’s personal best time in the 400-meter race.

Danhauer won the race as a freshman.

North Posey had other great performances as well. Alex Stewart placed third in the long jump with a leap of 20-feet and 11 and a half inches.

Wildcats baseball beat Vikings 5-3

By Chris Morlan Mount Vernon’s baseball team played a home game last Saturday morning against county rival North Posey. The Wildcats beat the Vikings 5-3 and scored all their runs in the bottom of the first inning. Nathan Burke hit a three-run homer in the first inning to cap the lead. North Posey was shutout for the first five innings of the game until the sixth inning when they scored their first run. The Vikings scored two runs in the seventh inning, but it wasn’t enough to win the game.

Wildcat pitcher Tyler Walls pitched five solid innings for Mount Vernon. Walls only allowed six hits, no runs scored, eight strikeouts and only walked two batters on 106 pitches with 64 pitches going for strikes.

Braden Henning pitched the final two innings of the game to get the save. Henning had 40 pitches with 27 pitches going for strikes, six hits, three runs scored, two walks and two strikeouts.

The Wildcats went to bat as a team 23 times with five runs scored, six hits, four runs batted-in, two walks and three strikeouts.

Nathan Burke went one for two at the plate with a homerun, three runs batted-in and a run scored.

Matthew Crafton went one-for-three with a double and a run scored. Bronson Quinzer went one for three at the plate with a run scored and a stolen base. Hunter Murphy went one-for-three with a run scored and a run batted-in. Hunter Wiltshire went one-for-

one hitting with a run scored. Braden Henning went one-for-three hitting for the game.

North Posey’s Corey Heath had a rocky first inning allowing five runs, but Heath pitched well in the final five innings of the game. Heath pitched six innings, 101 pitches thrown with 59 pitches going for strikes, six hits, five runs scored, two walks and three strikeouts.

The Vikings as a team went to the plate 33 times, scoring three runs, 12 hits, three runs batted-in, four walks and 10 strikeouts. Camden Bender was the Vikings best hitter of the game going three-for-five at the plate with two runs batted-in. Shane Harris went twofor-three and walked once. Jarrett Motz went one for four with a run batted-in.

Corey Heath went one-for-four. Brandon Hamman went one-for-three with a walk.

Westin Voegel went one-for-two with two walks. Dalton Cox went one-for-four with a run scored. Kyle LaVanchy had a run scored.

Mount Vernon plays again on Tuesday, May 15, at Henderson County, Ky., with the first pitch at 5 p.m. On Saturday, May 19, the Wildcats will be at home for the Mount Vernon Invitational at 10 a.m.

North Posey plays again on Tuesday, May 15, at home against Tecumseh with a start time at 4:30 p.m. On Saturday, May 19, the Vikings travel to Northeast Dubois for a doubleheader with the first game starting at 10 a.m. and the second beginning at 12 p.m. local time.

‘Wildcats’ continued from Page B1 acknowledge. Finally, the pitcher is ready to pitch and Gabi hits the ball out of the ballpark for a three-run home run to give us enough runs to win the ballgame and the conference championship.”

Vincennes had a solo shot in the top of the seventh to make the final score 8-6.

Sadie Hobbs had a home run in the contest and Addie Robison remained hot with a pair of hits. Brooklyn Gibbs had a homer and three RBIs. She also was the winning pitcher with 10 strikeouts and only two walks.

Senior Lindsey Keitel was lost of the season in the championship win over Vincennes when she tore an ACL while running the bases.

“Lindsey got a ball down and made good contact and headed for first and the throw to first was overthrown so she planted her foot to round the bag,” Bell said. “She’s my number two pitcher, my clean-up hitter, and my right fielder and now as a senior on senior night, she is done for the season.”

The Wildcats will square off against Gibson Southern on Tuesday and will play at Evansville Reitz on Thursday. In the meantime, Bell had to take a second look at some

of his players to shore up his line-up in an effort to replace Keitel.

Going into the championship game, the Wildcats, after defeating Jasper with a walk-off home run by Meghan Ghrist just a few days ago, faced elimination from Big Eight Conference championship consideration in back to back games this week and came out winners both times. The pair of wins gives the Lady Cats the first ever softball championship of any kind and will allow the hanging of a banner in the gymnasium in the future.

Although Coach Dave Bell has been part of several Big Eight Conference championship teams, this is the first time a team he has coached as “run the table” and brought home the undisputed championship to Mount Vernon. And perhaps even more scary is the fact that of the Wildcats top ten players, half are seniors and half are juniors.

Earlier in the week in the win over always-tough Boonville, it turned out to be a pitcher’s duel won by the Wildcats’ Gibbs.

Gibbs scattered five hits, struck out seven and allowed 0no runs in the 2-0 victory over Boonville. Lauren Earhart had a double and RBI. Gibbs had two hits and an RBI.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK GABI GILPIN

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK KYLE STEWART

“I did find a freshman pitcher over the weekend,” Bell said of freshman Lexus Chavez. “She pitched against Memorial and got the win against Forest Park on Saturday.

She also defeated Bosse.”

Gibbs had two doubles and three RBIs in the win over Forest Park. She also had five strikeouts in the six outs she recorded.

Lexus Chavez was the winning pitcher over Forest Park.

Jaycie Tucker had three hits and two RBIs in helping lead the Wildcats to an 11-1 win over North Davies later in the week. Megan Ghrist and Sadie Hobbs had two hits apiece with Ghrist getting three RBIs. Brooklyn Gibbs picked up the win striking out five and only giving up two hits.

Later in the week, the Wildcats faced Evansville Memorial for the second time this season, on the heels of winning the Big

Eight and losing one of their leading seniors.

The freshman Chavez pitched well for the Wildcats but the team was unable to put any runs on the board, despite hitting the ball hard, but general right at someone.

The Wildcats managed only four hits in the 10-0 loss to Memorial. In an earlier outing, the Wildcats defeated the Tigers 3-2.

Singles were collected by Gabi Gilpin, Megan Ghrist, Jaycie Tucker, and Addie Robison.

Following action this week, the Wildcats will square off against Heritage hills in their sectional opener at Boonville. The Lady Patriots own one of one three losses by the 17-3 Wildcats this season.

“We just have to do the basics,” Bell said.

“We need good pitching, good defense, and I think we can put some runs on the board.”

Danielle Perry has come back strong after taking a short time off with a tired and injured body and still managed to show what she is made of in the 200m dash with a fourthplace finish. Brooke Coleman proved that her height doesn’t hold her back, her stride was twice the size of her when she ran with a super-fast group of mile runners and finished fifth with a season best time of 5:56.

Since we are such a small team we usually only have one or two girls in each event and sometimes no one in an event. We missed Jasmine French heavily who is out with an injury in our 4x800-meter relay.

French couldn’t compete, and we missed her in the two mile.”
