WE ROLL-FORM YOUR PANELS & BEND YOUR TRIM!
Canning & Preserving Come August, flourishing backyard gardens, bustling farmers markets and roadside stands make it apparent that summer's bounty is ripe for preserving and pickling. I was fortunate I was taught early on by a mother, grandmother and great grandmother that knew the art of canning and pickling. The art of canning has changed very little in the last 200 years. Below are some basic instructions as well as some recipes to inspire you. Go ahead and try your hand at it; there's nothing more satisfying than looking at your efforts lined up on the shelves.

1. LEARN IT. When using the most up-to-date information, canning is safe and satisfying. The USDA Guide to Home Canning and the Ball Blue Book are two easy-to-follow resources for canning how-to. 2. CHOOSE IT. Fruit and vegetables just at their peak of ripeness are best for canning. Produce that is overripe, bruised, or spoiling won't taste as good and could promote dangerous bacterial growth. 3. PLAN IT. Rather than attempting to preserve huge quantities all at once, try to keep canning projects manageable and safe by packing only about eight jars of food per each canning session. 4. STORE IT. Thoroughly rinse and dry all sealed jars before placing in the pantry. Any questionable seals and non-USDA-recommended jars should be reserved only for short-term refrigerator storage. 5. MONITOR IT. Label jars to help ensure food safety. Include the food type and canning and expiration dates. Examine closely and discard jars with loosened seals or bubbles which can indicate the presence of harmful bacteria. Canning Jars: Ball, Weck, Sur La Table.

1½ T. cider vinegar (5-percent acidity) 4 cups sugar
Make the preserves: Combine strawberries and vinegar in a large saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, shaking the pan occasionally, for 3 minutes. Add the sugar and bring to a full boil. Continue to boil for 6 minutes, occasionally working the pan in a circular motion. Remove from heat, cover, and allow to stand overnight. Process the jam: Sterilize eight 1/2 pint jars and keep hot. Bring the strawberry mixture to a boil over high heat and ladle into the hot jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Securely cap each jar and process using the boiling-water canning method for 10 minutes. Store in a cool, dark pantry for up to 1 year. Makes 8 half-pint jars.

Local Ten Year Old Competes In Grand National Quarter Midgets Racing Ten-year-old Braxton Davis, son of Ben and Chelsey Davis of Centralia, started driving Quarter Midgets at the age of eight. Last year was his first full year in the Sr. Honda and he finished third in track points. This year he has traveled to Terra Haute, IN and Taylorville, IL to compete in two of the Regina I races. Braxton's home track is 170 QMA in Greenville, IL where he is running a tight race for first place in track points. Most recently he competed in a national race, the 2018 Eastern Grands with drivers from all over the United States. Braxton qualified well but still had to race his way in. With only ten cars making the A Main, through his determination he drove his way into the big show. After a big crash and roll over, Braxton knew his car had many issues, but he pushed on to race a few more laps, eventually having to pull off, still finishing seventh in his first national race.

The Davis racing team competed with over 156 drivers from 11 states at the I-70 Quarter midget race track in Greenville, Illinois between July 8 – 14, with 10-yearold Braxton Davis placing in the Top 10 Sr. Honda with third in points.

Balloon Fest 2018 Major Sponsors
“You can do anything as long as you have the passion, the drive, the focus, and the support."
— Sabrina Bryan
ONLY PRIME PRODUCTS FOR OUR NEIGHBORS AND FRIENDS. LOCAL PORK
Every year the Greater Centralia Chamber of Commerce and the volunteer Balloon Fest Committee members work hard to bring Balloon Fest to our community, but they can’t do it alone. Along with all the
hard work that comes with organizing an event of this size, someone has to step up to the plate and donate products, services, and money to support it. Some donors sponsor balloons, balloon pilots, or spe-
cific activities; some make small monetary donations; others make very large donations. It all adds up, but the sponsors are critical to the success of the event. Pictured here are some of the major sponsors of Balloon Fest
2018. Be sure to thank them for their contribution to this year’s edition of the annual fun-filled family-oriented festival we know as Balloon Fest.

The landowner awards committee of the 29th annual Centralia Balloon Fest has announced that a total of $500 in Schnucks Gift Cards will be awarded landowners this year. Balloon Fest will be held Friday through Sunday, Au g u s t 1 7 - 1 8 - 1 9 i n Foundation Park, located on the east edge of Centralia off State Route 161. Balloon Fest will award $100 Schnucks Gift Cards to five lucky landowners whose names are drawn at the conclusion of the Balloon Fest. Only landowners whose property is used for random landings by balloonists participating in Balloon Fest will be eligible. The awards are sponsored by Schnucks. The main purpose of the landowners committee is to cultivate good will among landowners, balloonists, and
the community so everyone can enjoy this spectacular family event. Landowner participation is essential to the success of the Balloon Fest. A white sheet on property is a universal welcome signal for balloonists to land on that property. Also, any open, uncultivated land away from livestock and other animals is considered acceptable for landing, unless pilots are notified to avoid by the landowner or renter. A Balloon Fest landowner committee spokesman said, "We appreciate the many calls from landowners requesting balloons to land on their property. We would like to oblige, although we cannot promise since balloon pilots have little control over the direction of their flight. There is not a set course. Balloon
flight paths are controlled by the wind direction, and seldom exceed a ten-mile radius of lift-off at Centralia. Balloons usually fly when the air temperature is coolest (during early morning or late afternoon) at altitudes of 500 to 1000 feet.” AREAS TO AVOID: The Greater Centralia Chamber of Commerce office also needs to hear from landowners or renters who do not want balloons to land on their property. Those individuals should call the Centralia Chamber of Commerce office at 532-6789 prior to August 10 with property descriptions including county, township, range, section, etc. Area maps will be developed outlining areas for balloon pilots to avoid as landing sites. Balloon pilots come from

many states and are friendly people who enjoy entertaining the public. They would not knowingly harm anyone or property. Should the unexpected occur, however, balloonists are insured. Spectators are urged to respect the rights of landowners when following balloons both flying and landing, and to avoid traffic congestion that might damage property or delay crews from assisting downed balloons. The spokesperson said, "We appreciate the enthusiasm area rural landowners have shown in the past and want to thank them again for their support. Continued support can make Balloon Fest safe, problem free, fun filled, and entertaining for the entire family."

OPINIONS
It may come as a shock to many this week. However, let me start this column by saying I was disappointed in the statement our President made to Vladimir Putin during the meeting between the two in Helsinki, Finland as he defended Putin from claims of election interference. I was also disappointed in him pointing a finger at the FBI and CIA, although both agencies have questionable behavior and have been less than fair to Donald Trump, especially the FBI. I've said it before and I'll say it again, two wrongs never make a right. And across the board in the last sur vey, only 33% of Americans approved of the statements he made. But within 48 hours, Trump was stepping it back and admitted he misspoke. That's more than former President Obama
did when caught on an open mike as he said to a Russian diplomat he'd have more latitude after the election. Actually, his exact statement was, "This is my last election … After my election I have more flexibility." Where was the outrage? The fact remains that Donald Trump's policy against Russia has been very, very strong. It's a fact that when Trump says there's never been a president as tough on Russia as he has been, it's not just rhetoric, but is the truth. This administration has been tougher on Russia than any president in the post-Cold War era. In military spending alone, Trump sought to add $1.4 billion for Fiscal Year 2018 to the European Deterrence Initiative, a military effort to deter Russian aggression. That's a 40% increase from the
last year of the Obama administration. This president also agreed to send lethal weapons to Ukraine, a step Obama resisted. Trump also gave our forces in Syria more leverage to engage with Russian troops. The Trump administration has also imposed sanctions on dozens of Russian government officials. Trump has aggressively promoted U.S. energy exports. And just last week, even though Trump's actions speak louder than words, he said, "If we could develop a relationship which is good for Russia, good for us, good for everybody, that would be great." And to that I agree. And who would disagree, except the far left, who have been upset since Trump won, without Russian interference as
much as the left would have you believe. Trey Gowdy III, a former federal prosecutor ser ving as the U.S. Representative from South Carolina, said last Sunday morning he has not seen one shred of evidence of collusion and that this President has not colluded with Russia and neither has anyone else. Going back to what Trump has said all along, "This is nothing more than a witch hunt." On to the new mouthpieces of the Socialist Democratic Party, Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. When I say that, trust, I'm not putting all democrats in that category. There are still, fortunately, some conservative democrats left. So less than four weeks after stunning the political establishment in a New York House primary, 28-year-old socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her sidekick, former presidential candidate Bernie Sanders stepped on the national campaign stage from New York to the Heartland. Their platform is pure socialism, pointing out "change is tough," when it comes to what they stand for, like forgive all student loans, get rid of ICE, open borders, free housing for all, ending capitalism, and medicare for all. In my opinion, they should both go to Venezuela. Welcome to the far left! I wonder what our founding fathers would think. I know what I think, and it's not printable. In closing, the 2018 election is just over 100 days away. If the far left keeps it up, they'll give this one away, especially when the 28-year-old socialist, Ms. Cortez continues to
Shimkus Supports Kavanaugh Nomination C ongressman John Shimkus (R, Illinois-15) released the following statement following President Trump's nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the United States Supreme Court:
"Brett Kavanaugh is exactly the kind of judge we need on the Supreme Court, one who bases decisions on the Constitution and the rule of law. He sees the judicial branch for what it is: coequal to the legisla-
tive and executive branches, not superior. If an issue appears before the Supreme Court that calls out for a legislative solution, he has indicated it should be the responsibility of Congress to address. The judicial
branch should not — as it unfortunately has done so many times — legislate from the bench. "I strongly support the President's choice of Judge Kavanaugh."

look and sound like an idiot. Her latest comment was, "The reason the unemployment rate is so low is everyone has two jobs." Someone needs to muzzle her. Until next week.

EAGLE LIFE
Ministries by: Cliff Sanders
The Cross I have a beautiful cross in my office. It was given to me by a friend in Texas, who had carved it from a mesquite tree. One day, to my dismay, I noticed a pile of white power-like substance around the base of the cross. I swept it up, but a few days later there was another pile. I called my friend Dub Hayes, who owns a pest control company, and asked him about what could be happening to my cross. He explained that no doubt there was a certain beetle that was eating on it from the inside out. He offered to stop by and treat it for me. There are many enemies of the cross. The so called emerging church teaches that there are many ways to God and that one does not need the cross to make it to heaven. Some churches have taken down all emblems of the cross so
as not to offend visitors or seekers. Many preachers never mention the cross of Christ in their sermons. The devil must be smiling with glee, for he hates the cross. The Bible reveals that without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sins. (Hebrews 9:22; Matthew 26:28) The cross is the central theme of the Bible. The apostle Paul preached and wrote of the cross perhaps more than any other person. Consider these aspects of the cross. THE PREACHING OF THE CROSS. Paul declares, “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.” (I Corinthians 1:17-18) Fancy speech, fables, and folly can’t save a sin sick soul, only the preaching of the cross of Christ can. Only the precious blood of Jesus could purchase our redemption.

Great insurance.
(I Peter 1:19) THE OFFENSE OF THE CROSS. The cross is an offense to the world. (Galatians 6:11) The scriptures say, “Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, cursed is everyone that hangs on a tree.” (Galatians 3:13) Jesus bore the shame and curse of sin for all men. (Isaiah 53:5) Many wear a cross around their neck, but I ask you, do you know the man who died on that cross for you? THE GLORY OF THE CROSS. I tremble at this verse, “But God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me and I unto the world.” (Galatians 6:14) The cross changes everything – EVERYTHING! The old hymn “Near the Cross” says, “In the cross, in the cross, Be my glory ever . . .” THE DEATH OF THE CROSS. “And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.” (Philippians 2:7-8) Do you understand what price Jesus paid for your salvation? The death on the cross. Don’t just wear a cross, we are called to be
crucified with Christ to our flesh and to daily bear our cross as his disciples. (Galatians 2:20; 5:24; 6:14; Romans 6:6) THE PEACE OF THE CROSS. “And having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things to himself.” (Colossians 1:20) Peace with God is yours only through faith in the blood of Christ shed on the cross. We find shadows and prophetic types of the cross all through the Old Testament. One such example is the law of the cleansing of a leper. The cleansed leper was to come to the priest and bring two birds (probably doves) with him. One bird was slain and then cedarwood, scarlet, and hyssop was to be sprinkled with the blood under running water, as well as on the live bird. The live bird was then released. What a vivid image of the atonement and cleansing of the cross. (Leviticus 14:1-17) Do you know the one who died on the cross for the sins of the world? Don’t just wear a cross, bear the cross of Christ. Shalom, Cliff Sanders Eagle Life Ministries eagleslife8@gmail.com

646 NORTH POPLAR • CENTRALIA Prices good through August 7, 2018 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Your zeal for challenges usually works well for you. But this week it’s best to avoid jumping into new situations without more information. Vital news emerges by the weekend. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Once again, the Bovine’s patience pays off as that pesky problem works itself out without taking too much of your valuable time. A new task opens interesting possibilities. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Those suggestions you want to share need to be set aside for a while so you can focus on the job at hand. There’ll be time later to put your ideas into a workable format. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Be sure about your sources before you use the information in any decision you reach about your new project. Some of the data might be out of date or misinterpreted. LEO (July 23 to August 22) A sudden challenge might rattle you at first. But pump up that strong Lion’s heart with a full measure of courage, and face it with the continuing support of family and friends. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Watch your expenses this week so you can have a financial cushion to fall back on should things tighten up later this month. Money matters ease by the 1st. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Uncertainty over workplace policy creates anxiety and confusion
among your colleagues. Don’t be surprised if you’re asked, once again, to help work things out. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) The workweek keeps you busy tying up loose ends and checking data that needs to be verified. The weekend offers a chance to relax and restore your spent energies. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) This is not the best time to go to extremes to prove a point. Better to set a sensible goal now and move forward. There’ll be time later to take the bolder course. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A step-by-step progression is the better way to move ahead. Taking shortcuts could be risky at this time. Important news arrives on the 1st. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Avoid getting drawn into workplace disputes that should be handled by those directly involved. Instead, spend your energy developing those new ideas. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You still need to be prudent about money matters. But things start to ease by the end of the week. A weekend encounter with an old friend brings welcome news. BORN THIS WEEK: You handle challenging situations with boldness when necessary and caution when called for.

Ericka Sanders children and their families to overcome. In addition, children need more than just resources. They need the same unwavering love and support and deep interpersonal relationships that we all need. C entralia Connected seeks to forge bonds between these children and adult volunteers in the Centralia area, a goal that not only provides the hand up that any child needs, but also connects people from all neighborhoods and backgrounds. Nothing can foster community and understanding more than the shared common goal of raising children up to reach their highest potential. And, the improvement of a city can only be achieved if its citizens act together, listening and understanding each other’s perspectives and needs. In this vein, Centralia Connected believes that the children for which mentors are sought will, in fact, connect us with one another. Centralia Connected seeks approximately 30 mentors for students entering the program in the Fall of the 2018/2019 school year. Because a team of mentors are matched with one child, anyone who is interested in applying to be a mentor is encouraged to recruit other responsible, caring adults to apply as well. For more information about the application process, an online application, and specific details of the program, please go to centraliaconnected.com or call the Centralia City Schools at 618-545-6603.
