Wow, what a week, starting with President Donald Trump addressing the caravan of at least 1,000 illegal immigrants traveling through Mexico at the present time, who are making it clear their goal — whether the U. S. likes it or not — is to cross the border into America. Well, not so fast. Trump took the bold step to order at least 4,000 armed National Guard troops to the border, and they will remain until the wall is built. However, keep in mind, Bush II as well as Obama sent the National Guard to the border. But, in my opinion, they weren't quite as committed as this President, and thousands and thousands slipped through. I'm not so certain that will happen this time, and at this point it's best those that have plans to cross over think twice. And to that I say good for the President. Enough is enough, when it's been reported that $64 billion of drugs have been smuggled across the border, killing many Americans yearly, as well as sucking our country dry through entitlements, which none of them deserve! And I'm not alone. I watched the mayor of Escondido, California emotionally state that he as well as his family came to our country legally 30 years ago, as most of our families did. The key word here is legally. The mayor said, "We are a nation of immigrants. We are a nation of legal immigrants. We are a nation of law and order." And trust, I realize — as many do — California is ground zero for Donald Trump on the issue of accepting illegals willingly, as their state goes deeper and deeper into debt and suffers from a high rate of crime committed by illegal im-
migrants, a broken welfare system, and one of the highest rates of homelessness, as well as crazy extremism. California Governor Jerry Brown, the first sanctuary governor, has filed as many as 27 lawsuits against the Trump Administration, but right now Brown is walking on thin ice as opposition is building against him and the left wing. They are facing a serious backlash from the right wing who are sick of the lawlessness. A prime example is the insanity of "catch and release." It's now reaching the point at least two California sheriffs are publishing the names of the illegals that they are being forced to release, to warn the legal citizens of their release. And so the insanity continues. Let's face facts. The law is the law is the law, or so I've been taught. And when we as a country cease to protect and secure our borders, we cease to be a republic. Where does that leave us? We have become the land of milk and honey for the illegals, but where does this leave those of us that are legal citizens picking up the burden for the illegals? Up next, the deadline to turn over documents from the Hillary Clinton email investigation came and went, with the DOJ and FBI ignoring the order. Keep in mind this is not a political issue; it's a legal matter. My question is what have the Justice Department and Federal Bureau of Investigation become? And it leads me to ask, what are they trying to sweep under the rug and who is behind it? Only time will tell. Moving on, as the swords rattle on the trade war between the U.S. and China, I again agree with
Trump when he's being accused of starting a trade war! He responded by saying, "We don't have a trade war. We've lost the trade war." And to that I agree. We lost the war on manufacturing and suffered the loss of jobs while George Bush and Barack Obama stood by. And last but certainly not least is Michelle Obama's latest comment about Trump, and no, not the one where she scolded and lashed out at female voters that voted for Donald Trump. I'm referring to the comment when she compared Trump to a neglectful parent who lets his children gorge on sweets all day and stay up late. The former first lady used the parent allegory to compare her husband's presidency to that of his successor. According to her, for the eight years Barack Obama was president it was like having the good parent at home. So my question, Michelle, is what's the candy? More jobs (1.7 million)? A tax cut bill? No ISIS attacks? Someone who stands up for our country? Someone who defends the Constitution? Eleven Obama legacy items repealed? Cutting unemployment to 4.1%? Dow Jones reaching a record high? A rebound in the economic confidence to a 17 year high? Not to mention rebirth of the coal industry? And I could go on and on. Michelle, I'll take Trump's candy over your husband's any day of the week. Until next week. To comment on this or any column in The Shopper’s Weekly, please mail to: Editor, P.O.

Floral Platter Spring brings flowers, and lately designers are using more floral prints than usual for fabrics and designs. But a picture of a plant as a decoration on dinnerware is an old idea going back to at least the 1600s. In 1761, an Encyclopedia of Danish Flowers (Flora Danica) was commissioned by King Frederik V of Denmark. Thousands of hand-colored illustrations from engraved copper plates were made that accurately showed the wild flowers and plants. It was not completed until 1874, but some of the drawings were used to decorate a banquet service in 1790. The first Flora Danica dinner set of 1,802 pieces was made for King Christian VII to give as a gift to Empress Catherine II of Russia. It is said it was to make up for not helping the Russians in their war with Sweden. Catherine the Great died before the set was finished, so it stayed in Denmark. The remaining 1,530 pieces belong to Queen Margethe II, and some have been used for special occasions. You can still buy new dishes from the Royal Copenhagen factory or old ones at antiques shops and auctions. It is said to be the only 18th-century set that

is still being made. Each piece has a single plant pictured as the decoration. Dishes can be ordered with the preferred plant. A Flora Danica platter recently sold for almost $1,000. It was decorated with "Verbascum Thapsiforme Beuspidatum Shad." We call it a mullein or velvet plant. The tall yellow flowers are used in herbal medicine. Today there are more than 300 varieties of mullein, and more are being propagated to get more flowers, shorter flower stalks and other changes. If you own a Flora Danica piece, be very careful. Even a tiny chip in the notched edge can lower the price by half or more. *** Q: I bought a Belleek creamer and sugar bowl decorated with a yellow ribbon and bow back in the 1960s. The marks has a circle "R" over a harp and the words "Belleek, Ireland" and "Deanta in Eirinn, Reg. No. 0857." The sugar bowl has a green mark and the creamer a black mark. Why are the marks different colors? A: The black mark with the words Deanta in Eirinn was used from 1926 to 1946. The green mark that is the same, except for the color, was used from 1946 to 1955. A sugar and creamer pair usually have
This 20th-century Flora Danica porcelain platter is 18 1/2 inches by 14 1/4 inches. It features a tall, yellow mullein flower. The dish is fully marked on the bottom with factory marks and the impressed number 3520. It sold for $984 in a Skinner Inc. auction in Massachusetts.
the same marks since they were bought at the same time. Belleek made some patterns for many years, and you may have a replacement for a broken piece. *** TIP: Your cellphone's camera is a magnifying glass. Focus on the marking you want to read and go in for a close-up. It is great for ceramics or prints, but a little difficult for metal because of glare. No need for a ruler and a magnifier anymore. Now you can go to a show with a dollar bill (a 6-inch ruler) and a phone. For more collecting news, tips and resources, visit www.Kovels.com © 2018 King Features Synd., Inc.

Should Shock Collars be Banned in U.S.? DEAR PAW'S CORNER: What do you think about England banning "shock collars," which give dogs a mild electric shock when they misbehave or try to cross an electric-fence boundary? — Jim H., via email DEAR JIM: I'm all for it. Shock collars are just plain cruel. Never mind that they give purely negative feedback, something that should be limited when training a dog. England's ban will take effect this year. Other parts of Britain already have banned or are considering a ban on the use of shock collars, including Wales
5
and Scotland. Here in t he U.S., however, there is no such legislation that I know of in any state that bans the sale or use of shock collars. A growing movement is taking shape, however: The Animal Rescue Site is circulating a petition and plans to deliver it to the House Committee on Agriculture, as well as the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture Animal Care. Organizations including the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior and the Humane Society of the United States have issued statements against the use of these collars. "The least humane and most controversial use of the shock collar is as a training device," the HSUS says on its website. As AVSAB says in its position paper on the issue, "Training should focus on reinforcing desired behaviors, removing the reinforcer for inappropriate

behaviors, and addressing the emotional state and environmental conditions driving the undesirable behavior." In short, owners who want to train their dogs correctly should focus on
positive reinforcement. If training a dog becomes difficult, consult a professional trainer rather than shift straight to a shock collar or choke collar. © 2017 King Features Synd., Inc.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Be less rigid when handling a relationship problem. You might believe you’re in the right, but try to open your mind to the possibilities of facts you’re currently not aware of. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Leos and Leonas run at a hectic pace throughout much of the week. But by the weekend, the Lions’ Dens become a purrrfect place for you Fine Felines to relax in. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Change is favored early in the week. This should make it easier for you to reassess your plans for handling a troubling professional relationship. Good luck. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A suggestion from a colleague could give your professional project
that long-needed boost. Meanwhile, someone close to you still needs your emotional support. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Before complying with a colleague’s request, check to see that the action benefits all, not just one person’s agenda. Continue firming up those travel plans. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your social life is on the upswing, and the only problem is deciding which invitations to accept. Enjoy yourself before settling down for some serious work next week. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) With your creative aspects on high, you might want to restart your work on that novel or painting you put aside. Your efforts will bring a surge in your self-esteem. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) While you’re generous with others, be sure you’re not overlooking your own needs. Take time to assess your situation and make adjustments where necessary. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Being applauded for your achievement is great. But watch out that you don’t start acting like a star. It could lose you valuable support with your next project. BORN THIS WEEK: Your strong belief in justice, along with your leadership qualities, help you protect the rights of others. © 2017 King Features Synd., Inc.

our community, and very grateful for all the support we’ve received since we began in 2016,” stated Sandy Sinnett, WU Chair. Applicants are asked to submit a 300-400 word essay answering the following two questions: (1) Why should you be the WLC Scholarship recipient? and (2) How are you making a difference in your school and/or community?

April is Autism Awareness Month. So what it Autism? Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability that can cause significant social, communication and behavioral challenges. Children and adults with ASD may find it difficult to relate to other people, and may show restrictive and/or repetitive patterns of behavior or body movements. There is a wide range of ability among people with autism. Some are gifted and others need significant
levels of support to ensure their health and well-being. ASD Facts • As many as one in 68 children are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). • ASD is reported to occur in all racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic groups. • ASD is the fastest growing developmental disability, with recent prevalence studies indicating a 23% increase. • More people than ever are being diagnosed with ASD.
Social Communication/ Interaction • Difficulty establishing or maintaining back-andforth conversations and interactions; • Inability to initiate an interaction; • Problems with shared attention or sharing of emotions and interests with others; • Abnormal eye contact, posture, facial expressions, tone of voice and gestures, as well as an inability to understand these; • Lack of interest in other people; • Difficulties in pretend play; • Engaging in age appropriate social activities; • Problems adjusting to different social. Restrictive/Repetitive Behavior • Stereotyped or repeti-
There Is Hope ASD is a life-long disability. And while there is no cause or cure, nor a known singular effective treatment, it is treatable. People with autism—at any age—can make significant progress through therapy and treatments, growing to lead meaningful, productive lives. However, experts agree that early diagnosis and early intervention are critical — because the earlier people with autism get help, the better their outcomes will be in the future.

disabilities, including autism. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that formal screening for autism be conducted at 18 months and 24 months and developmental screening should occur throughout childhood. Did you know? The annual estimated cost of providing services to children with ASD in the United States is estimated to be $11.5 billion. With early diagnosis and intervention, the overall cost of treatment can be greatly reduced over an individual's lifespan.

Saturday evening, April 7, I had the pleasure of being invited to a service of dedication to the renovation and addition by DAL Construction to Friedens United Church of Christ in Irvington where they welcome all people to worship and to serve in any and in all capacities.

Five months later, the Treaty of Paris was signed, bringing an end to the Revolutionary War. • On April 9, 1859, a 23-year-old Missouri youth named Samuel Clemens receives his steamboat pilot's license. Clemens is better known by the pseudonym "Mark Twain," a boatman's call noting that the river depth was two

Pastor Tate pointed out the renovation and addition plans started in 2010 with the congregation's desire to make more room as well as making it more accessible in order to serve God's plan under the Pastor's guidance, and on Saturday evening all joined together in this blessed celebration. The evening included a number of speakers, the orchestra of bells by the
Hallelujah Chorus, a special word by Mayor Gera Sims, and a blessing of the doors by Pastor Tate that will and welcome all! The ceremony was followed by refreshments as many gathered for faith filled singing by the members and tours of the new addition. Friedens United Church of Christ is located at 307 S.

Spring has finally arrived, teasing us with warmer weather yet to come–the hot days of Summer. I love fried fish, hush puppies, slaw and baked beans. I always consider that menu a summer treat! Hush puppies always remind me of a story I heard as a kid. I was always told as a kid, hush puppies were created in the fishing camps along the coast. While camp cooks were frying fish, they would throw scraps of fried batter to the barking dogs and yell, "Hush puppies!"

Recovering From Failure Someone has said, “To err is human — to forgive is divine.” We all have times of failure in our life. When Jesus was arrested, put on trial, and crucified, most of his followers deserted him. Three times Peter denied even knowing Jesus before a little servant girl. He wept tears of repentance and God forgave him. But, like so many, Peter had a difficult time forgiving himself. After Jesus arose from the dead, he met Peter and the disciples on the shore of the Sea of Galilee and the divine son of God reached out his arms of love and restoration. Let’s learn how Peter recovered from humbling failure as we observe his actions in John 21. REPENT of failure. Peter wept tears of repentance when he realized he had denied his Lord. Judas sold Jesus out for 30 pieces of silver, but he didn’t repent. God is always merciful to those who sincerely repent

of sin and failure. “Repent therefore . . . that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.” (Acts 3:19) RETREAT with fellow believers. Retreat means to withdraw. Jesus would periodically retreat with his disciples to a solitary place to be refreshed. Soon after the risen Lord had appeared to his followers, Peter said, “I’m going fishing.” (John 21:1-3) The other disciples replied, “We’ll go with you.” Jesus has ordained that his followers do life together. This is called church. We need one another for full recovery. Life’s experiences are more fun when you can share them with others. The body of Christ strengthens and supports one another as they worship the risen Lord. REACT in faith and obedience to the word of the Lord. The disciples had fished all night and came up empty. (John 21:5-6) Life doesn’t always come
2. From Song of Solomon 1:15, what kind of eyes does the b eloved say the Shulamite has? Kind, Red of the demon, Doves, Blue of the sea 3. Used as both a greeting and farewell, what's the Hebrew word for "peace"? 1. Is the book of Psalms Shass, Simcha, Shabbat, in t he Old or Ne w Shalom Testament or neither?

out as we expect it to. Jesus shouted out to them from the shore. “Cast your nets on the right side of the boat.” When they obeyed, they had a miracle catch. What a surprise! I love the word serendipity. It means, “the faculty of making happy and unexpected discoveries by accident.” I believe God delights in giving us serendipitous moments of delight, to help us in the recovery process as we learn to react in faith. RUN to Jesus — not away from him. Peter had been running from Jesus, living in condemnation. When he realized it was Jesus on the seashore, he jumped out of the boat and swam to Jesus. Our human tendency is to avoid Jesus in our failures. But recovery requires the very opposite. Run to Jesus! (James 4:6-8) In every battle, God is teaching you to run to the cross and cry out to him for deliverance. REFRESH yourself by feasting with Jesus. When the disciples got to the shore, they saw Jesus had a fire going and had bread and fish for them. Breakfast with Jesus is the breakfast of champions. An old hymn says, “’Come and dine,’ the Master calleth, ‘come and dine;’ You may feast at Jesus’ table all the time.” Jesus has his living word to give life and renewal to
4. In Matthew 6, what Haggai, Gershom, Mark, did Jesus say not to use Zebudah when we pray? Loud curses, ANSWERS: Impure thoughts, Vain rep1) Old; etitions, Wandering shifts 2) Doves; 5. As found in Esther 1, 3) Shalom; King Ahasuerus lived in 4) Vain repetitions; what city? Ur, Shushan, 5) Shushan; Antioch, Tarsus 6) Gershom 6.

those who will come to his table. REJOICE in the risen Lord. “They knew it was the Lord.” (John 21:10-14) When you know the living Savior, no one can dissuade you, nothing can defeat you. Ancient Job declared in his suffering, “I know my redeemer lives.” (Job 19:25) RECOMMISSIONED. Three times Jesus asked Peter, “Peter, do you love me? . . . Feed my sheep.” (John 21:12-14) Jesus was renewing, reinstating and recommissioning Peter. Rest assured, God is not done with you. God specializes in recovery and restoration. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (I John 1:9) REFOCUS on your mission. (John 21:19-22) Peter questioned Jesus about John’s assignment. Jesus told him to mind his own business. “You follow me,” Jesus said. We all have different callings and gifts. Don’t look at others — refocus on Jesus and your own mission. Recovery continues when we live as if Jesus is returning soon. He is! Follow Jesus.
