Lady Eagles are State Bound! Mercy St. Francis by Laura Wagner Managing Editor laura@mvstandard.com
The Liberty Lady Eagles are State Bound! After a nail biter game against Strafford the Lady Eagles moved on to play Clever where they sealed their ticket to the state playoffs. The Class 2 Sectional Playoff game began against the Strafford Indians. Liberty entered the game with a season record of 28-6-1 while Strafford had a season record of 31-2-1. The Indians came out on top in the first set 2519. The Lady Eagles rallied
MSHP
to win the second 25-23. The final set was a nail biter but the Lady Eagles prevailed winning 27-25. Moving on to fay the Clever Blue Jays (22-10-3) the Lady Eagles won in two sets 25-20 and 25-21. “We have been the underdogs all season, and that is where I want to be,” explained Head Coach Shari Tune. “These girls were determined, mentally prepared and refused to give up. I am so proud of that team I saw on the floor Saturday. It was a sweet and super intense victory See State on Page 9

First Baptist Church will hold their Fall Festival on Sunday, October 30 from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Fun for all
ages! First Responders Offer Halloween Safety Tips While ghosts and goblins are scary, it’s even scarier to get hurt on Halloween. Here are some safety tips from your Shannon County First Responders so that ghouls and goblins of all ages can have a safe and fun holiday. Proper preparation is important. Dress children to be seen! Decorate costumes and bags with reflective tape or stickers and, if possible, choose light colors. Masks can obstruct a child’s vision, so choose non-toxic face paint and make-up whenever possible instead. Make sure any costumes or wigs are fire retardant. On Halloween night, remind children to only visit houses that have their porch lights on and never go inside a stranger’s home or car to get candy. Remind them to stay in groups and stay on the sidewalks where they are available and not walk in the streets if it can be avoided. Have kids carry glow sticks See Halloween on Page 9
The numbers are starting to add up. Brenton Bush set a Liberty Eagles record on Friday night for the most catches in a season, the Eagles themselves improved their record to 10-0, and the offense piled up another 336 yards and has scored 110 points in the last two games. The result for the first-round of Districts was a 55-0 shutout victory over the Houston Tigers as Liberty now advances to the second round with a home game against the Diamond Bears this week. For Liberty’s opponent last week, however, it was about as tough of a schedule as anyone could imagine at the end of the season. The Houston Tigers ended the regular season with games against the top teams in the SCA, the Mountain Grove Panthers followed by the Liberty Eagles. For the first-round of Districts, the 1-8 Tigers had to travel to Mountain View to face the Eagles again. The second time wasn’t any prettier, as the Eagles’ Koel Orchard returned a fumble 74-yards to start the game, and Liberty never looked back. After seven Liberty touchdowns in the first-half, the turbo clock ran for the entire second-half and the crowd was heading home early. The Eagles numbers weren’t huge, but the yardage totals from two quarters of work were still impressive. Koel Orchard continued to be a force on both offense and defense. He scored three touchdowns, pulling off a hat trick by scoring once on defense, once as a runner, and a final time as a receiver. As a receiver he finished with 3 catches for 53 yards. Marcos Rodriguez had a quiet night at running back, carrying the ball only five times, scoring once on a 15-yard touchdown run. Josh Pruett rushed the ball just twice, scoring
touchdowns both times. Pruett was 10 of 16 passing the ball, for 210 yards and two passing touchdowns. One of those touchdown passes went to Brenton Bush who passed a big milestone on Friday night, becoming one of the most prolific wide-receivers in Liberty High School history. Considering some of the players who have caught passes for the Eagles, that’s saying something. But whatever list anyone makes of the best players to catch passes for Liberty, they will have Bush’s name at or near the top. With five catches for 109 yards Friday night, Bush set a record for the most pass receptions in a season. Believe it or not, he’s up to 72 catches this year, and there are still more games to play. The next game this week will be against the Diamond Bears who travel from the Joplin area to come to Mountain View on Friday night. Diamond sports an impressive 8-2 record, but struggled at home last week against the Willow Springs Bears. Willow had a lead at halftime, and the game went back and forth throughout the night before Diamond was able to squeak out a 27-24 victory. After reviewing the film, the Eagles aren’t taking Diamond lightly. “Diamond is a very talented bunch,” explained Liberty Head Coach Darin Acklin, “They have a lot of size on the field, both at offensive/defensive line and at the skill positions. Their running backs are both are over 200 pounds and over 6 feet tall. (Their) quarterback can wing it all over the field. Diamond has size and speed at wide-receiver (and) on film their offense is scary good.” It should prove a test for the Liberty defense, but last week against Houston, turnovers and a knee injury to the Tigers’ lead running back Chance Hunter, kept Houston See Football on Page 8
In August 1956, Sister M. Cornelia Blasko and a handful of Sisters first arrived in Mountain View on a health care mission. They worked tirelessly to reopen what is now Mercy St. Francis Hospital, expanding care to a community in need. Fast-forward 60 years, and Mercy is doubling down – literally – to mark a major milestone. At 2 p.m. Sunday, October 30, the hospital will host a community-wide open house and 60th anniversary celebration. Special guest speakers, including Dr. Alan Scarrow, president of Mercy Springfield Communities, will converge in front of the main entrance of Mercy St. Francis Hospital, located at 100 U.S. Highway 60 in Mountain View, to kick off the event. There will be an exhibit of special memories from the last six decades, as well as refreshments and tours. “It’s an exciting opportunity to reflect on our 60-year history,” said Cindy Tooley, executive director of operations at Mercy St. Francis Hospital. “Not only will you get a glimpse of our past, but we’ll offer a peek at some new projects underway that will benefit future patients.”

Missouri drops Homecoming game to Middle Tennessee by Benjamin Herrold Sports Columnist Last Saturday brought gorgeous October weather and Homecoming weekend to Columbia, so Tiger fans had plenty of reason to feel good and soak in the portrait-worthy day. Skies above were blue, just like the fight song says. But near the end of a four-hour game, quarterback Drew Lock threw a pass off-target on fourth down, and Middle Tennessee took a knee to hand Missouri a tough 51-45 loss. The Blue Raiders
poured out onto Faurot Field, wildly celebrating a road win over an SEC school. The sparse remnants of the crowd filed out into the now-crisp Columbia night, quiet in the realization Missouri (2-5, 0-3 in SEC play) might go another year without a bowl game. Middle Tennessee (5-2) is not a big name program, but they can play. Quarterback Brent Stocktill didn’t stand still in the pocket, moving and side-arming and improvising to get the ball to his receivers. Missouri didn’t have
much of an answer for I’Tavius Mathers and Richie James. But even if MTSU is a good Conference-USA squad, Missouri should be able to defend its home field against good Conference-USA squads. Middle Tennessee has little defense. For goodness sake, Vanderbilt scored 47 against MTSU, and beat the Blue Raiders by 23. Missouri’s frantic, hurry-up offensive pace leads to more plays and more possessions, which can inflate defensive statistics. But there’s no defending Missouri’s
defensive performance. Middle Tennessee racked up 300 rushing yards on 41 attempts, a robust 7.3 yards per carry. Missouri had too many missed tackles and defensive lapses. Missouri outgained MTSU 629 yards to 584, but the Tigers had two costly turnovers. Missouri also had a whopping 13 penalties for 125 yards. The Tigers aren’t a good enough team to give away that much yardage. Tiger fans had hoped a manageable fourgame stretch would be a path to bowl eligibility, but this loss makes the
climb to six wins and a bowl steeper. There’s a chance the glut of bowls will lead to 5-7 teams being needed to fill all the bowl slots, but we won’t delve into that sad scenario yet. Missouri is still stuck at two wins and hasn’t beaten an FBS Division I school since Sept. 10. For all Missouri’s faults, Saturday brings another winnable game as Kentucky visits (11 a.m. on SEC Network). Kentucky (4-3, 3-2 in SEC play) does bring a measure of momentum into the game, coming off back-to-back wins
against Vanderbilt and Mississippi State. Coach Mark Stoops has led Kentucky to 5-7 records each of the last two years, just missing a bowl. I think Missouri is a little better than Kentucky, and the Tigers began the week as a slight favorite. With the game in Columbia, Missouri has a better than 50-50 chance to win, even if the home crowds haven’t been huge this year. But losing teams can start to find ways to lose close games, and after last Saturday’s debacle, who knows what’ll happen this week in Columbia.
Exhibit, performance will explore the many faces of Abraham Lincoln He was born into poverty and suffered through numerous business failures, but he became one of the greatest presidents this nation has ever seen. Area residents can explore the fantastic journey of our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, when the Missouri State UniversityWest Plains’ University/ Community Programs (U/ CP) Department teams up with the West Plains Council on the Arts to present a oneman play, a community reception and a traveling exhibit from the Smithsonian Institution, all offered for free to the community. The Smithsonian Institution’s traveling exhibit “One Life: The Mask of Lincoln” will run Nov. 2-27 at the Gallery on the Mezzanine at the West Plains Civic Center, 110 St. Louis St. The kickoff of the
exhibit will coincide with a free theater performance and community reception Nov. 3, during which actor Danny Russel from Indiana will bring the enigmatic president to life through a captivating, one-man play on the civic center stage. During the play, Russel will trace Lincoln’s life from his time as a boy living in a log cabin on the frontier to his years as president living in the White House, showing how his experiences helped shape the views and moral code that would guide the nation through political division, a civil war and ultimately dismantling of the “peculiar institution” of slavery. Officials with the West Plains Council on the Arts will host a free reception with refreshments immediately following Russel’s performance. “It’s not often that we
get to experience the awe of the Smithsonian Institution,” said Jennifer Moore, coordinator of theater and events for the U/ CP Department. “And one fantastic thing about the reception is that people will get the chance to mingle with actor Danny Russell, who will remain in costume – and in character – after the play and throughout the entire evening.” The exhibit, which commemorates the bicentennial of Lincoln’s birth in 2009, contains a number of presidential portraits from the museum’s National Portrait Gallery. The images chart Lincoln’s transition from fresh-faced congressman to presidential isolation, according to the exhibition’s website, http:// www.npg.si.edu/exhibit/ lincoln/index.html. It also includes a facsimile of
Contract awarded for North Fork recreation area access improvement project The contract to improve river access for the North Fork Recreation Area, also known locally as Hammond Camp, has been awarded. The recreation area is located on the Willow Springs Unit of the Ava/Cassville/Willow Springs Ranger District. Work on the campground has begun; and intermittent closures of the site, mostly on weekdays, can be expected throughout the fall. The project was prompted by public safety concerns and a need to minimize sedimentation impacts to the federally endangered Ozark hellbender. This unique amphibian has
habitat within the North Fork of the White River. Safety concerns arose because the watercraft launch area and water play area are currently combined. People enjoying water play activities, such as wading, were concentrated in the same place others were actively backing trailers and launching watercraft. The current site has also been prone to erosion and damage during flood events. The project will construct a new watercraft launch upstream from the current site along with additional parking for watercraft users. The current site will be renovated
to better accommodate water play activities and to better withstand flood events. No renovations are planned in the campground section of the recreation site. The parking area used to access the Ridge Runner trail and the picnic area adjacent to the current launch site and water play area will be closed during construction. There may also be short-term closures of the entire recreation site this fall. Closure notices will be posted on site. Information on closures will also be available by contacting the Ava Forest Service office. For further information about this project or to check the status of North Fork Recreation Area, please visit the Mark Twain National Forest website at http://www.fs.usda. gov/mtnf or contact the Ava Ranger District at 417-6834428 and direct inquiries to Natural Resources Specialist Darla Rein.

Mark Twain National Forest is managed to restore Missouri’s natural communities and maintain a healthy, working forest.
the original cracked-plate portrait of Lincoln by Alexander Gardner. “This exhibition concentrates on presidential portraits to show the changing face that Abraham Lincoln presented to the world as he led the fight for the Union. Shaping himself to the uncertainties of the present, mindful of his role as the heir to the Founding Fathers, Lincoln led the nation where it never intended to go – from a political crisis over states’ rights to the revolutionary act of abolishing slavery. What is uncanny is how Lincoln moved toward this conclusion in public, before an audience fascinated and yet bewildered by the workings of an extraordinary mind,” according to information from the exhibit
ACTOR DANNY RUSSEL will give a one-hour performance as Abraham Lincoln at 7 p.m. Nov. 3 as part of the Smithsonian Institution’s traveling exhibit “One Life: The Mask of Lincoln” hosted by Missouri State University-West Plains’ University/ Community Programs (U/CP) Department and the West Plains Council on the Arts Nov. 2-27 at the Gallery on the Mezzanine at the civic center.

Several Initiative Petitions to be considered on the November Ballot On Nov. 8, Missouri voters will take to the polls to elect a new president, new statewide officials, new local representatives and to consider several ballot initiatives, some of which may amend Missouri’s Constitution. I want to take some time to talk about Amendment 3 and Proposition A, both of which seek to raise the cigarette and tobacco tax; and Amendment 1, which allows voters to decide whether or not to continue the parks, soils and water sales tax. To read the official ballot language, please visit the Secretary of State’s website here. Currently Missouri has the lowest cigarette tax in the nation. Many proposals have been brought forward in recent years to raise this tax, yet none have been passed by the Legislature or Missouri voters. Amendment 3 Amendment 3 would amend the Missouri Constitution to steadily increase taxes on cigarettes until 2020. Missouri’s current tax on cigarettes is 17 cents per pack and the proposed increase would amount to 60 cents per pack, making the total tax on a pack of cigarettes 77 cents. The average state tobacco tax is $1.65. The amendment would also create a 67 cent fee per pack for wholesalers on certain cigarettes, which would certainly be passed on to consumers. The cost of both increases would be $1.27 per pack.
The money generated from the tax increase would create the Early Childhood Health and Education Trust Fund and at least 75 percent of the revenue would be used for early childhood education. This amendment is somewhat controversial because there are passages that mention no funding shall be used for embryonic stem cell research or given to abortion providers, however, some say money could be provided for abortion and stem cell research. I encourage you as a voter to do your homework on this ballot initiative so that you may be fully informed at the ballot box. The increase in revenue is estimated to be between $263 million and $374 million annually. There is no estimate of the financial impact on local governments if the amendment were to pass. If passed, this amendment to the Missouri Constitution would only be reversible by another vote of the people. Proposition A Proposition A also proposes to raise the cigarette tax, however the increase would total 23 cents by 2021, making the tax 40 cents per pack. The proposal also includes a 5 percent tobacco increase on sellers and retailers. The money generated from this increase would be deposited into the Transportation Infrastructure Fund to improve roads and bridges in the state. This increase would be much smaller than the 60 cent increase proposed in
Amendment 3. $95 million and $103 million could decrease by approxiThe estimated increase to annually. On the other hand, mately $3 million annually general revenue is between local government revenues due to fewer cigarette and tobacco sales. This measure would not amend the Missouri constitution, however the change would be reflected in state statute.

Countless visitors come each year to enjoy this beautiful natural formation, spending money in the area and boosting the economy. As Missourians and as Americans we are given the opportunity to vote on the issues that affect us and the citizens we choose to represent us. I encourage you to be an informed voter and to educate yourself on the ballot measures presented to Missourians this year. Typically the spotlight shines brightest on the candidate races, however, the ballot initiatives are equally as important and can affect the state for decades in the future. I encourage you to visit the Secretary of State’s website for official ballot language and resources to help you come to a thoughtful decision on these issues. In next week’s column I will address other items on the ballot including voter ID, use taxes and campaign contribution limits. As always, I appreciate it when groups from around Missouri and from our community back home come to visit me at the Capitol. If you would like to arrange a time to come and visit me in Jefferson City, or if you ever have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact my Capitol office at (573) 7511882.

Marion Madrene Pulliam Marion Madrene Pulliam was born December 3, 1936, and gave up her fight with COPD on October 20, 2016.
She is preceded in death by her husband, Gene, of over 65 years, her parents Walter and Gladys Sanders, one brother and two sisters and a great granddaughter Kelsey. She is survived by two children, Butch Pulliam and wife Trish of Birch Tree, Missouri, and Phyllis Scoville and husband Dan of Bentonville, Arkansas; three granddaughters, Leslie Asplin, Selena Smith, Danelle Knight; one
grandson, Beau Scoville; two great granddaughters, Jessica Knight and Cassidy Smith; five great grandsons; Dalton Knight, Clint Smith, Cody Smith, Wyatt Asplin, and Coleman Asplin; three great great grandchildren, Oaklenn Knight, Evelyn Knight, and Franklin Knight; three brothers, Clinton Sanders, Kenny Sanders, and Denny Sanders; and many, many in-laws, nieces, and nephews. Madrene, “Snort”, to her brothers and sisters, was the glue in her family. She enjoyed nothing more than family get-togethers where she could visit with those she cared for most. Babies would put a sparkle in her eyes, and every grandchild and great grandchild has had “Bi-Lo” sung to him or her as each was snuggled in her arms and rocked vigorously. Madrene also loved cooking and baking pies, and her table never lacked for plenty of finger licking food. No one could quite make gravy like
Madrene. She was an avid shopper, and shoes and purses were her weaknesses. She could wear everyone out just following her around in stores, but she didn’t just shop for herself. She often bestowed gifts on her family, especially for the babies as they came along. She thought all of her granddaughters should have baby dolls, and she did her best to see that they got them. Madrene has certainly left a huge hole in her family circle. It will be some quite time before we all recover from her loss. Funeral services were held at 2 p.m. Saturday, October 22, 2016 at Yarber Mortuary, Mountain View, Missouri with Pastor Gary Larsen officiating. Interment was in Oak Grove Cemetery in Birch Tree, Missouri, under the direction of Yarber Mortuary, Mountain View. Condolences may be expressed at www.yarbermortuary.com
Brandon Beck to speak at Winona Oct. 30 Brandon Beck, KY3’s Morning Meteorologist, will be the guest speaker at Winona Ministerial Alliance’s community wide worship service on Sunday, October 30, at 3 p.m. on the Winona City Square. Mr. Beck, a longtime Springfield resident, graduated Evangel University in 1996with a degree in broadcasting, two months after he started with KY3. He was voted “Best Meteorologist” in both the Springfield New-Leader and 417 Magazine eleven years running. Mr. Beck likes to devote time to speaking to church groups, men’s groups, and to families about the important role men, especially fathers, play in the lives of their children. Brandon says,”‘I had a wonderful step-dad who taught me most of what I know about being a dad and husband. But those critical years without a father figure in my life proved to have a huge impact on me, my relationships, and especial-
ly how I viewed God as I grew up. I was shocked to find how all of that is interconnected. “ Brandon and his wife Cindy have three boys: Christian, Caleb, and Braden. His interests include spending time outdoors and watching movies. He plays the drums at church and is licensed to shoot professional fireworks in Missouri and Arkansas. Winona Ministerial Alliance is the association of Winona’s various churches. Working in unison to promote not only the common “good news” of Jesus Christ, they
also find ways to build a community unity that seeks to better the City of Winona through good works and fellowship between the churches. The Ministerial Alliance’s community services take place on the Fifth Sundays of those months that have them, about each quarter. October 30th’s service will include a hot-dog roast, so those who would attend, plan to bring a lawn chair. In the event of adverse weather, the community service will be moved to Winona Assembly of God at 922 Hale Street.

She was united in marriage to Aaron Faulkner on August 1, 1939 at Eminence, MO and to this union nine children were born. Olive is preceded in death by her parents Charles and Pearl Wade; husband Aaron Faulkner; and one daughter Betty Jane. She is survived by eight children Lily Foust and husband Otto of Winona, MO, Maxine Lilly of Winona, MO, Vivian Ward of Birch Tree, MO, Tom Faulkner and wife Tonie of Birch Tree, MO, Helen Waid of Birch Tree, MO, Charley Faulkner and wife Dorothy of Birch Tree, MO, Marla Brewer and husband Doug of Birch Tree, MO, and
Robert Faulkner and wife Beverly of Birch Tree, MO; two sisters Maryetta Martin and Gertrude Hopkins both of Birch Tree, MO; several grandchildren, great grandchildren, and great great grandchildren, who all loved her beyond measure; and a host of other family and friends. Olive grew up on the banks of Jacks Fork River. As a teenager, she went to work at Rymers Ranch, where she met her husband, Aaron. Olive always had a smile and a hug with a story to tell you every time you saw her. She loved to tell about growing up on the river working as a young adult or something one of her grandkids had said that week. She will be dearly missed by many. We love you mom, you will be missed.

How to Find and Hire a Good Handyman or Contractor Dear Savvy Senior, What’s the best way to find a good handyman or tradesman to do some work around the house? I’ve have had some bad luck lately with unprofessional workers who do shoddy work and charge too much. Frustrated Senior Dear Frustrated, Hiring a good home repair handyman can be a bit of a crapshoot. How do you find someone who will return your calls, show up on time, do the job right and finish it, all at a fair price? Here are some tips that can help. Who to Call While it may seem obvious, whom you call on for help will depend on what you need done. If, for example, you have a small home repair or improvement project that doesn’t require a lot of technical expertise, a handyman may be all you need. But if you have a job that involves electricity, plumbing, or heating or cooling systems, you’re better off going with a licensed tradesman. Bigger jobs like home renovations or remodeling may require a general contractor. Whatever type of work you need, the best way to find it is through referrals from people you trust. If your friends or family don’t have any recommendations turn to professionals in the field like local hardware or home improvement stores, or even real estate agents. The Internet can also help. Websites like HomeAdvisor. com can put you in touch with prescreened, customer-rated service professionals in your area for free. Or try AngiesList. com, a membership service that will connect you with contractors and service companies with various types of expertise for free. They provide ratings and reviews of local professionals who’ve done work for other members in your area, plus details about the type of work they’ve done, prices, professionalism and timeliness. They also offer an upgraded silver or gold membership for $25 or $100 per year, which offers discounts, a magazine, complaint resolutions and more. Another option for finding handyman services is through a local or national service company like MrHandyman.com, HouseDoctors.com or HandymanConnection.com. You’ll probably pay more going through a company than you would with an independent handyman, but service companies typically promise professional workers who are screened, licensed, bonded and insured. To find local handyman services in your community check your yellow pages or go to any Internet search engine and type in “handyman” plus your city and state. Things to Know Once you’ve located a few candidates, your next step is to get written estimates that list the materials, costs and details of the project. It’s a good idea to get at least three estimates from different sources to be sure you’re getting a fair deal. Before hiring someone, check out his or her work history with your state consumer protection agency (go to usa.gov/ state-consumer for a list) and the Better Business Bureau (bbb.org/council). You can also search the Web using the company or individual’s name and such words as “reviews” and “complaints.” You also need to find out if your candidates have an approved contractor or tradesman license. Using an unlicensed worker in a state that requires a license is dangerous – you’ll have little legal recourse if the job goes bad. (To see which states license contractors, visit contractors-license.org.) Contractorcheck.com is another good resource for researching local contractors. Also, ask to see their proof of insurance, which covers any damages they may cause while working on your home, and ask for several references from past jobs and check them. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

You must be registered by October 31. There is no cost for the program, but enrollment is required. As America’s gold standard smoking cessation program for over 25 years, Freedom From Smoking helps participants create personalized plans to overcome their tobacco addiction. With a recent new edition, the program is based on the latest research on addiction and behavior change. It approaches the difficulties of quitting with a sensitive, supportive style. Studies show that people who use the program are six times more likely to be smoke-free one year later than those who try to quit on
their own. According to Ruth Nabors, Pulmonary Rehab Coordinator at OMC, the program is especially helpful because it is taught by a trained facilitator who helps participants learn what triggers their smoking, when they are most likely to smoke, and the best way to approach the quitting process. “Our Community Health Needs Assessment showed the need for OMC to address causes of cancer and heart disease. Cigarettes and second-hand smoke are a leading cause of disease,” said Tom Keller, OMC President and CEO. “We want to improve lives by improving health. Helping people avoid health problems that can be prevented by stopping smoking will achieve a healthier community.” The public can enroll in this free program by calling Ruth Nabors at 417-257-5959, extension 6905. Please leave your name, phone number, and address on the voicemail and you will be contacted. The classes are limited to the first 15 to enroll.

Free seminars to help farmers prepare for Veterinary Feed Directive There are major changes coming regarding the way farmers use antibiotics in the food and water of our farm animals.
Effective January 1, 2017, the Veterinary Feed Directive (VFD) will be enacted under control of the Food and Drug Administration,
which will restrict the use of Farmers, ranchers, those certain antibiotics in the food selling medicated feeds, and and water of farm animals to veterinarians will all be afthat prescribed by a licensed fected. veterinarian. Prepare for the VFD by at-
tending evening seminars offered by University of Missouri Extension. Dr. Graig Payne, MU Extension veterinarian, will present free
Ozark National Scenic Riverways will be conducting a managed deer hunt for Wounded Warriors the first weekend of November at Big Spring. Portions of the Big Spring area will be temporarily closed to the public from Friday, November 4, until the morning of Monday, November 7, to help ensure public safety during the activity. This includes Peavine Road, the Big Spring hiking trails, the Big Spring campground, the Peavine pavilion, and the
Chubb Hollow area. Big Spring and the boat landing will remain open throughout the weekend and can be accessed by Highway 103. This managed hunt was made available to ten individuals who are current or honorably discharged military members with permanent mobility impairments. Participants were selected through an application process, and will be allowed to use center-fire rifles in accordance with Missouri hunting regulations to take
two deer each. The Wounded Warrior managed hunt is being conducted in partnership with the Foundation for Exceptional Warriors (The FEW). The FEW is a nonprofit organization that proactively and directly serves Exceptional Warriors who epitomize honor, valor, service and sacrifice. The organization is helping to offset hunting and lodging expenses for the Wounded Warrior hunt participants. For more information on

We appreciate the understanding of visitors during the temporary closure of the Big Spring area for this purpose.” For more information, visit the park’s Facebook page, follow us on Twitter, visit the park website at www.nps.gov/ozar, or phone (573) 323-4236. Ozark National Scenic Riverways preserves the free-flowing Current and Jacks Fork Rivers, the surrounding resources, and the unique cultural heritage of the Ozark people.
The 2016 Firearms Early Youth Deer season is this weekend, October 29th and 30th. In 2015 Missouri’s 75,618 permitted youth hunters checked a total of 16,632 deer, for an overall harvest rate of about 22%. But harvest rate is not the only measure of a successful hunt. Time spent with family, being outdoors, enjoying the sights, smells and sounds of the season and acquiring
and honing hunting skills all contribute to “success”. Among these and of chief importance is safety. Our youth hunters have to be shown that safety is everyone’s concern. To that end, if you are an archery or fall firearms turkey hunter and plan on hunting this weekend you are required to wear hunter orange hat and vest during the Youth Deer season. You may feel
doing so hampers your effectiveness, but on the other hand doing so may prevent one of those 75,000 youth hunters from being involved in a tragic and life-changing incident. At the very least it shows you care about safety. For more information or help with conservation matters call Conservation Agents Brad Hadley at 573230-3706 or Zack Swindle at 573-230-6174.

Bow hunters and hunter orange
Football out of the end-zone all night long. They did get close on their first drive, thanks to a flurry of penalties including a pass interference call against the Eagles that moved Houston deep into Liberty territory. Hunter got the Tigers inside the Eagles 20-yard line before being injured, but on fourthand-two, a shot-gun snap went over the head of the quarterback. Koel Orchard picked it up and raced all 74-yards for the touchdown. Whatever early momentum the Tigers had, disappeared just like that. Liberty took a 7-0 lead. The Tigers went nowhere without Hunter on their next possession and punted allowing Liberty’s offense on the field for the first time. Two plays later, Josh Pruett faked a hand-off and was gone for a 55-yard touchdown run.
From Page One Liberty’s 14-0 lead became 21-0 before the first quarter ended. The defense once again forced Houston to go three and out, and starting at their 24-yard line, the Eagles marched 76 yards in six plays. Two of those were big passes to Bush, who caught a 24-yard pass on third down to give Liberty the ball at the Tigers 44-yard line. The next play, Pruett hit Bush again, this time for 30-yards and a first down at the Tiger’s 14yard line. Two plays later, Orchard took a handoff and scored. It was that sort of night for Houston. The Tigers did manage a first-down on their next possession as the second quarter got underway, but sack by Chase Smith and Devin Wallander put the Tigers in a hole, and they eventually punted. Liberty started their drive with a 25-yard pass
University of Missouri Extension Farm to School at BTE
Farm To School - The 4th graders from Birch Tree Elementary attended the Farm to School presentation by the University of Missouri Extension and Soil and Water Conservation District. There were several area 4th graders that attended. The students learned about daily chores on a farm and how to take care of a farm. They also saw some animals that live on farms. They were fed a great lunch and sent them home with a backpack of goodies. (Photo provided to the Standard)
to Bush to move into Houston territory. A nine-yard run by Rodriguez with a facemask penalty tacked on gave Liberty a first-down at the Houston 5-yard line. Pruett ran it in for the score on the next play. When he isn’t catching passes from Pruett, Bush is catching passes from opposing quarterbacks. That’s what he did on Houston’s first play from scrimmage following the kickoff. The interception gave Liberty the ball on the Tigers’ 35-yard line, and after a 19-yard pass to Orchard for a first down, Rodriguez took an option and ran it for a 15yard touchdown, and a 35-0 Liberty lead. The Eagles scored twice more before halftime, capitalizing on another Houston turnover that resulted in a two-play Liberty drive. Both plays were passes to Bush, the second a 7-yard touchdown catch that made it 42-0 Liberty. It was 49-0 at halftime after the Eagles defense sacked the Tigers’ quarterback two consecutive times forcing a punt. Liberty took over and with a passes to Orchard for 35 yards and Jackson Conner for 10 more, the Eagles moved inside the 10-yard line where Pruett passed to Orchard for the touchdown. Even the junior varsity got in on the act in the second half. Jaris Acklin led the way at quarterback in the third quarter, and helped direct a 33-yard scoring drive that ended with a 2-yard touchdown run by Ethan Smith. The Eagles walked away with a 55-0 victory, a 10-0 record, and a game against Diamond. If the Eagles win against Diamond, they will play at home against the winner of Mountain Grove and Ava. NOTABLE STATS: PASSING: Pruett 10 of 16 for 210 yards, 2 TD’s; RUSHING: Rodriguez 5 carries 29yards, TD; Pruett 2 carries 60 yards, 2TD’s; RECEIVING: Bush 5 catches 53 yards (72 catches for season, new Liberty record), Orchard 3 catches 53 yds, TD rushing, TD receiving, TD defensive.

Brown's Farm & Garden Feeder Cattle Auction Report for 10/18/2016 Receipts: 1,927 Week ago: 2,550 Year ago: 2,950 Compared to last week, feeder steer and heifer calves traded 5.00-10.00 lower. Yearlings were lightly tested, however undertones were lower. Demand was good on a light supply with several local buyers in town to take advantage of the lower prices. With September receipts 20 percent less than a year ago and October 13 percent behind, the big question is, when will the fall run begin and its effect on the cash market. Feeder supply included 46 percent Steers, 1 percent Holstein Steers, 45 percent Heifers, and 8 percent Bulls. Feeder Supply over 600 lbs was 36 percent.

Halloween

(or incorporate them into costumes) for better visibility, and remind them that all the rules about crossing streets safely are especially important on Halloween and especially not to run across streets. It’s really best if parents accompany kids. Don’t allow children to eat any treats until they have been inspected by an adult and only allow them to eat items that have intact wrappers. Tampering is rare and has been exaggerated, but there’s no reason to take chances. Adults need to be reminded of a few things too! Drive very slowly in residential neighborhoods and downtown. Kids get excited on Halloween and may run across roads or dart in from unexpected directions. Remember, many of our areas do not have sidewalks and kids might be walking in the streets. Minimize distractions like cell phones, eating and music while driving in town on Halloween so you can be alert for the little ones. If you’ve been to a good spooky Halloween party, please designate a sober driver so you don’t become a real ghost. If you are hosting a party, don’t let anyone drive home who’s had too much “witches brew” if you know what we mean! We hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween, but if you get into trouble, we’ll be here for you! Please check out our Facebook page at “Shannon County First Responders.”
