Bears was closer than expected, but five scores in the third quarter, including two touchdown catches from Xander Marshall, who finished the night with three receptions for 127 yards,

powered the Eagles to a dominating 57-14 victory, and set up a conference showdown with the Mountain Grove Panthers this Friday.

When homecoming was

officially over, most of the Liberty Eagles stats looked as good as ever. The offense had piled up 501 total yards, including 273 on the ground.

Josh Pruett had a hand in most of those yards, completing 9 of 11 passes for 228 yards, and running for 161 more.

The problem was the Willow Springs Bears were not going away in the first half. Chris Stanley led the Bears with 91 rushing yards in the first two quarters, and Ben Wake was efficient passing, completing seven of eight for 76 yards, plus a rushing touchdown on a quarterback sneak. The Bears trailed the Eagles 20-7 by halftime, but it took a goal-line stand by Liberty, plus a touchdown with just 1:44 left in the half to get there. By all appearances, the 1-3 Bears were hanging in there with the 3-0 Eagles.

Public meeting to discuss Route 19 bridge improvements The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is looking for a more permanent solution to address issues with the Route 19 bridge over Sinking Creek in Shannon County.

A temporary bridge was put into place in May 2015, following a lane reduction

and weight restriction on the existing structure.

"While the temporary structure allows heavy truck traffic to avoid lengthy detours, we look forward to finding a permanent solution to provide a crossing over Sinking Creek," said Project Manager Pete Berry.

MoDOT will hold a public meeting Oct. 5 from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Shannon County Courthouse, located at 113 Main St. in Eminence, Mo. MoDOT is currently examining six options for providing a crossing over Sinking Creek and will share the potential

plans with travelers at the public meeting. Four of the alternates include building the structure on a new alignment, with two proposed alternates designed on the existing alignment.

Attendees are encouraged to share their thoughts regarding the proposed

alternates during the meeting, as well as any additional options they would like MoDOT to consider.

For more information, please contact Berry at (417) 469-6242, Assistant District Engineer Chris Rutledge at (417) 469-

6239 or MoDOT's Customer Service Center toll-free at 1-888 ASK MODOT (275-6636).

Legislature overrides 10 vetoes in annual veto session The annual veto session began on Wednesday at the Capitol, as the Senators successfully overrode 10 of the 16 possible vetoed bills. Newly elected President Pro Tem Sen. Ron Richard, R-Joplin, said the Senate’s position was tough and unwavering, and the body remained committed to overriding the governor.

“We overturned some very important economic growth tools for small businesses yesterday. This included a stable minimum wage across Missouri and relief in unemployment insurance,” said Richard. “We made some tough decisions and worked hard during session to come up with long-term solutions to create and keep jobs in Missouri.”

The first bill overridden by the Senate was Senate Bill 224, sponsored by Sen. Gary Romine, R-Farmington.

The bill requires a student to be a United States citizen or permanent resident in order to be eligible to receive reimbursements from the A+ Schools Program. Current program guidelines are unclear on how to handle students

with unlawful citizenship status. This bill clarifies the guidelines and also brings the A+ Program’s citizenship requirements up to the same compliance level as Missouri’s other two scholarship programs: Access Missouri and Bright Flight.

“Increased demand to take advantage of the successful A+ Program was a contributing factor in the recent budgetary shortfalls for the program,” said Romine. “This is a tremendous program that was designed to improve our schools and provide a better education for the children of Missouri’s taxpayers. It’s important that these valuable resources are

available for years to come.”

The Senate also successfully overrode veto on House Bill 150, handled by newly elected Majority Floor Leader Mike Kehoe, R-Jefferson City.

The measure modifies the duration of unemployment compensation by tying the number of weeks of unemployment benefits to the unemployment rate. The bill also contains measures to modify the method to pay federal advances and raise the trust fund cap.

“House Bill 150 is a smart, fiscally responsible move for Missouri that will help insulate the state from any future economic downturns,”

If you’re inundated by hummingbirds now, there’s a good reason. They’re “fueling-up” for their journey south and need all the help they can get. I’ve had some to ask me if they should take down the feeders

so that the birds won’t stay and possibly get caught in cold weather here. That’s not going to happen, for they are born with a sensor that tells them when to leave.

We’re celebrating Library Sign-up Month during September by offering an Activity Day at Summersville Branch Library for K-8 on Saturday, September 26 from 11 a.m.-noon. We’ll have scavenger hunts for all ages and a treasure hunt for the older ones to familiarize the children with their hometown library.

A drawing will be held on September 30th for those who have received new library cards during the month. Six book bags will be awarded.

Summersville Friends of the Library meet at the library on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 5 p.m. The next meeting will be October 13th. New members are invited to join the group in supporting and participating in the continuing growth of the Summersville Branch Library.

Summersville Library is a branch of Texas County Library and located at 480 First Street, on the south side of the square, next door to Open Door in Summersville.

Business hours are 11 a.m.5 p.m. Monday-Friday and 9 a.m.-1 p.m Saturday.

Defunding Unconscionable Actions In a series of disturbing undercover videos filmed and recently released by The Center for Medical Progress, we learned that Planned Parenthood employees may have adjusted abortion procedures without notifying patients in order to harvest baby parts to sell to the highest bidder.

Planned Parenthood performs more than 325,000 abortions a year – that’s equivalent to the entire population of St. Louis.

It’s horrifying. The videos show employees with a grave disregard for human life, and Americans deserve better than the cruelty exposed in the undercover videos.

I am working with my colleagues to thoroughly investigate Planned Parenthood’s activities and take action. This week, the House of Representatives passed a bill I sponsored called the Defund Planned Parenthood Act of 2015. Its purpose is to protect hardworking taxpayers’ money from going to such an organization. We issued a subpoena for the entire unedited content of the videos, and held the hearing “Planned Parenthood Exposed: Examining the Horrific Abortion Practices at the Nation's Largest Abortion Provider,” where we heard testimony from women who were abortion survivors. In response to our findings, the House passed the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act to make sure that doctors and healthcare practitioners provide care to all children born alive during abortion procedures or be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Planned Parenthood annually receives $528.4 million in tax dollars from hardworking Americans. Missouri has 588 local health centers that provide care and 13 Planned Parenthood locations. That means there are 588 better alternatives for our tax dollars. That money would be better used at local health centers providing genuine care rather than an organization performing gruesome abortions.

said Kehoe. “By paying a little more in the good times, we will have more funds available during tough economic times instead of compounding our debt by borrowing from the federal government.”

Kehoe said even though there was some question as to the legality of the vote on House Bill 150, it was in the Senate’s right to do so.

“It is the Senate’s position that since the Missouri Constitution doesn’t ban a vote on such a bill after the end of the regular session that we do have the power to override it during the upcoming veto session,” said Kehoe. “This position is based on well recognized principles of constitutional law, the Senate’s own precedent from past years and judicial case law.”

Also handled by Sen. Kehoe and successfully overridden is House Bill 722. The bill also prohibits a political subdivision from establishing, mandating, or requiring an employer to provide to an employee a minimum or living wage rate that exceeds the requirements of federal or state laws.

“Some of the decisions we have made today will level the playing field for businesses across the state. Companies can always choose to pay more, but we have created the state standard that gives those companies assurance to do business across Missouri,” said Kehoe.

The Legislature also successfully overrode Senate Bill 142, sponsored

by Sen. Romine. The bill requires the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to take certain actions when submitting certain plans to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

“For years now, the EPA’s overregulation has caused our state significant financial strain and affected the jobs and livelihoods of our citizens,” said Romine. “It’s time we take control of this bloated bureaucracy and their relentless pursuit of power, stifling policies and intrusive regulations.”

Also overridden by the Legislature: - House Bill 618 - changing the laws regarding the disposition of human remains;

- House Bill 878 – specifying that the Department of Public Safety must have the authority to commission corporate security advisors and establishes procedures to do so; - House Bill 1022 authorizing a return of premiums paid by insureds; - House Bill 1098 – changing the laws regarding trust companies; - Senate Bill 20 - creating a sales and use tax exemption for materials and utilities used by commercial laundries; - Senate Bill 345 - modifying provisions relating to financial transactions.

Flight provide one-day trips to Washington, DC, for veterans to see the veterans’ memorials: World War II, Korea, Vietnam, the Lincoln Memorial, Iwo Jima, and Arlington Cemetery for Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers.

A majority of the military veterans on the most recent Springfield flights have been Korea veterans, Collins said. The flights from the Springfield-Branson National Airport (SGF) are filled with veterans and their individual guardians along with doctors, nurses, media and bus captains.

Collins said guardians pay $450 each to cover their seat cost and help with other flight

expenses. Each flight costs about $90,000, she said.

Flights for the veterans are financed by donations to the Honor Flight of the Ozarks, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.

Donations are tax-deductible and any amount is welcome.

“We’d especially like to get the word out to any World War II or Korea veterans who are interested and any veteran diagnosed as terminally ill,” Collins said. “We are also accepting applications from Vietnam veterans.”

Volunteer guardians are available for any veterans who don’t have guardians to accompany them on the flight. Volunteer guardian applications are also welcome.

Liberty Lady Eagles Softball win big at home The Lady Eagles competed in the Bakersfield Tournament on Saturday, September 12. In the first game the Lady Eagles fell to the Thayer Lady Bobcats 16-5 committing nine errors.

"They jumped out and

scored five runs during the top of the first inning, then came out in the bottom and we just couldn't get an out. To make it worse, after pounding the ball in the first inning, we didn't get another hit the rest of the game," explained Head

Coach Robert Brown. For the game Bethanie Daniels was 1/2 with 2 RBI; Cassidy Smith was 1/2 with 1 RBI and Brooke Taylor was 1/2 with 1 RBI. In the second game against the Alton Lady Comets, the

Liberty Eagles once again fell short losing 14-9. According to Coach Brown it was an identical start as the first game scoring five runs in the top of the first then not reaching the base again until the fourth inning. "By that time we had dug ourselves too big of a hole. Alton was consistent at the plate scoring runs in the fourth and sixth innings, we were not." For the game Smith was 3/4 with 3 RBI; Daniels was 3/4 with 1 RBI; Kamryn Gastineau was 3/4, 2 runs and 1 RBI; Taylor was 2/4, 2 runs and 1 RBI and Tehya Pierce was 1/3 with 2 RBI. Coming to a close, the Lady Eagles didn't manage a win losing by 1 run to Mansfield for a game ending score of 6-7. "By this time in the day we were just going through the motions." For the game, Pierce was 1/4 with 2 RBI Home Run - Bethanie Daniels hit a career first home run on Thursday, September and Jaci Mantel was 3/4.

game was suspended at the top of the fourth inning due to a Hartville player collapsing on the field. She was taken by ambulance to a hospital and no word yet on her condition.

At this point in the season the game will not be made up.

On Tuesday, September 15 the Eagles hosted Bakersfield.

Liberty overtook Bakersfield 10-6 in a good "bounce back" game after a weekend of losses. For the game, Taylor was 2/4 with 4 RBI; Mantel was 3/3 with 1 run and 2 RBI and Cassidy Smith was 4/4. " "It was a good bounce back game," began Coach Brown.

"We hit consistently, made plays in the field and Brooke came through with strikes. It was a much better effort, the girls needed that confidence booster."

Another big win for the Lady Eagles came Thursday, September 17 against Mansfield where the Eagles won 17-7. For the game, Taylor Pulliam was 3/4, 3

runs and 1 RBI; Taylor was 2/3 with 4 runs, Autumn Johnson was 3/4 with 2 runs and 2 RBI; Bethanie Daniels was 3/3 with 3 runs and 6 RBI; Gastineau was 3/4, 2 RBI. "We had a really good approach at the plate, we were patient, swung at good pitches, exactly what we talked about prior to the game," commented Coach Brown on the win. "Every player in the lineup had at least one hit, and we were consistent scoring in five different innings. Bethanie Daniels had a monster game at the plate with 6 RBI, including a 2-run home run, the first of her career."

The Lady Eagles will play Monday, September 21 at home against Thayer and then travel to Alton on Thursday, September 24. There are just two games left in the season before the Lady Eagles head into district play October 7 through October 10.

How to Save on Hearing Aids Dear Savvy Senior, Where can we find affordable hearing aids? My husband needs a set but we can’t really afford to pay the exorbitant prices.

Can you help us?

Loud-Talking Wife Dear Loud, It’s unfortunate, but millions of Americans with hearing loss don’t get hearing aids because they simply can’t afford them.

Hearing aids – typically sold through audiologists’ offices – are expensive, usually costing between $1,000 to $3,500 per ear. What’s more, traditional Medicare doesn’t cover them and private insurance typically hasn’t either.

But there are numerous ways to save on hearing aids if you know where to look. Here are a few tips.

Check Your Insurance While most private health insurance companies do not cover hearing aids, there are a few that do. United Healthcare, for example, offers high-tech custom hearing aids to their beneficiaries through HealthInnovations for $599 to $899 each.

And a small number of other plans will pitch in $500 to $1,000 towards the cost of hearing aids, or give you a discount if you purchase hearing aids from a contracted provider.

And due to state law mandates, three states – Arkansas, New Hampshire and Rhode Island – currently require private insurance companies to provide hearing aid coverage for adults and 20 require it for children. So check with your insurance provider to see if it offers a hearing aid benefit.

If your husband is a Medicare beneficiary you should know that while original Medicare (Part A and B) and Medigap supplemental policies do not cover hearing aids, there are some Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans that do. To look for a plan in your area that covers hearing aids visit Medicare.gov/find-a-plan.

If he is a current or retired federal employee enrolled in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program, some plans provide hearing aid coverage, including the Blue Cross Blue Shield plan that covers hearing aids every three years up to $2,500.

And, if you are on Medicaid, most state programs cover hearing aids, but requirements vary. To find out if he qualifies, contact your state’s Medicaid program or visit Medicaid.gov.

Veterans Benefit If your husband is a veteran, the VA provides a hearing aid benefit if his hearing loss was connected to military service or linked to a medical condition treated at a VA hospital. He can also get hearing aids through the VA if his hearing loss is severe enough to interfere with his activities of daily life. To learn more, call 877-222-8387 or visit VA.gov.

Assistance Programs If your income is low, there are various programs and foundations that provide financial assistance for hearing aids to people in need. Start by calling your state vocational rehabilitation department (see parac.org/svrp.html) to find out if there are any city, county or state programs, or local civic organizations that could help.

Also contact Sertoma (Sertoma.org, 816-333-8300), a civic service organization that offers a comprehensive list of state and national hearing aid assistance programs on their website. Or call the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders at 800-241-1044, and ask them to mail you their list of financial resources for hearing aids.

Cheaper Buying Options If you are unable to get a third party to help pay for your husbands hearing aids, you can still save significantly by purchasing his hearing aids at Costco or online.

Most Costco stores sell top brands of hearing aids for 30 to 50 percent less than other warehouse chains, hearing aid dealers or audiologists’ offices. This includes an in-store hearing aid test, fitting by a hearing aid specialist and follow-up care.

And websites like EmbraceHearing.com and Audicus.com, sell quality hearing aids directly from the manufacturer for as little as $400 or $500. But, he will need to get a hearing evaluation from a local audiologist first, which can cost between $50 and $200.

Ruth Smith will never forget watching as the Sisters transformed health care in Mountain View.

That mission inspired Smith to give back, too. Today, more than 40 years later, she remains a proud member of the Mercy St. Francis Auxiliary.

“Since I was young, I’ve always wanted to volunteer for the greater good,” Smith said. “As a student in the early 1960s, I had to get permission directly from Sister Cornelia to spend my summer break at the hospital.”

Sister M. Cornelia Blasko, a native of Slovakia, remains close to the hearts of many in southwest Missouri. She and a handful of Sisters traveled to Mountain View in 1956 in response to a call for help.

Together they reopened a hospital, known today as Mercy St. Francis Hospital, and expanded care to those in dire need. “We owe a debt of gratitude to the Sisters who came before us,” said Smith.

Smith’s own tenure as an auxilian began about a decade after the so-called “Gray Ladies” volunteered at the hospital in the 1960s.

“They wore uniforms and caps and looked like registered nurses,” Smith recalled. “They would help with lab testing, x-rays, pediatrics, clerical work, dietary services and much more.”

Today, volunteers sport Mercy vests and name badges, and their duties have also changed considerably.

The dozens of auxilians at Mercy St. Francis split their time between the gift shop – along with other tasks at the hospital – and the Mercy St. Francis Thrift Shop, located at 108 W. 1st Street. The store sells gently used items, such as clothing, seasonal décor and household items; purchases at either location benefit the hospital, patients and community.

“We have a lot of fundraisers throughout the year,” Smith said. “There are Christmas and Easter bazaars, as well as book sales and quilt raffles. Our latest project included a donation to the hospital’s cardiac rehab. Before that, we contributed to the sleep lab and the Sister M. Cornelia Blasko Foundation, which makes a tremendous impact on the community each

year.”

While rewarding, giving the gift of time isn’t only about helping patients and the hospital. Auxilians like Ruth realize soon after starting that they’re helping themselves, too. “Most of us are retired, so this gives us an opportunity to step out and make a difference in the world,” said Smith, who has donated more than 4,000 hours of her time.

“It’s an incredible feeling, absolutely. It has also allowed us all to become friends and build great relationships. And it’s very enjoyable!”

Volunteers 18 years or older are invited to join the Mercy St. Francis Auxiliary.

To learn more, call the human resources department at 417-934-7079 or stop by the office at Mercy St. Francis Hospital, located at 100 W. US Highway 60.

Drugs within the county. The team is comprised of Sheriff Steve Blunkall, Detective Rick Hamilton, K-9 handler/ Deputy Richard O’Dell, Reserve Sergeant Deputy Nathan Nichols and K-9 handler/Deputy Tony Hughes. This team has over 65 years of combined law enforcement experience.

The team will be working in conjunction with other jurisdictions, who also are dedicated to the same cause.

Law enforcement officers from Shannon County Sheriff’s Office, Eminence Police Department, Birch Tree Police Department, Texas County Sheriff’s Office, Dent County Sheriff’s Office and Oregon County Sheriff’s Office gathered for the Shannon County drug warrant roundup. There were a few arrests made for outstanding warrants that were unrelated to the round-up. The sheriff's office expects more narcotics arrests within the weeks to come.

Throughout the day, while subjects were being arrested, many more felony violations of narcotics were

“Our defensive line(men) were not doing what they were taught to do,” he noted, “Offensively, we just needed the ball. We had three possessions and scored three times in the first half. We needed to take some deep breathes, focus, and do our job better was the bottom line.”

When the third quarter arrived, the focus was back.

Seventeen seconds after the Eagles came back on the field, senior wide-receiver Xander Marshall introduced himself. Taking a pass from Pruett, Marshall raced 69 yards for a touchdown on Liberty’s first play of the third quarter. When Liberty got the ball back after a blocked punt and safety by Cale Cornman, Marshall needed just one play again, this time catching a pass from Pruett for 35 yards and another touchdown.

Suddenly it was 36-7 Eagles, and the game was starting to look a lot more like a homecoming contest.

Sheriff Steve Blunkall said, “This warrant roundup should send a strong message to the criminal element of Shannon County that we are serious about stopping the flow of illegal drugs in this community.

We will continue our efforts to curtail illegal drug trade in Shannon County.

With the new Narcotics Interdiction Team & K9 units, this community can rest that we will not stop until this element is behind bars.”

The charges for which the above listed defendants were arrested are merely accusations and are not evidence of guilt. Evidence is support of the charges must be present before a court of the jurisdiction whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.

From Page One quarter continued with two more touchdowns. Receiver Andrew Raider caught a 41yard pass from Pruett, nearly making it across the goal-line before being stopped two yards short. Raider got the call again on the next play, however, scoring on a 2-yard pass to stretch the Eagles’ lead to 42-7. The final score of the third quarter came after a 51-yard run by Koel Orchard set Liberty up at the Bears 13-yard line. Pruett scored on a quarterback keeper two plays later.

Even the junior varsity got in on the action in the fourth quarter, driving the length of the field and finishing with a seven-yard touchdown run up the middle by Seth Stephens to make the final score 57-14 and keep the Eagles undefeated record untarnished.

The toughest test is up next, of course, and the fate of the SCA championship may very well rest on the results of next week’s game against the likewise undefeated Mountain Grove

Panthers. Although the 3-1 Thayer Bobcats are still in the running, their only loss came to Liberty and as a result, a victory by the Eagles this Friday would make them the heavy favorites to finish the season as the SCA Champs.

Easier said than done, however, as the first half against the Bears demonstrated. After Liberty jumped out to a 7-0 lead, the Bears continued to punch back. The Eagles capitalized early on a Willow Springs interception as Orchard picked off a Ben Wake pass to give Liberty the ball at their own 25-yard line.

Orchard followed that play with a 20-yard run on second down that moved the ball near mid-field, and two plays later, Pruett broke free for a 56-yard touchdown run.

It was 7-0 Liberty but here came the Bears. After the kickoff bounced off a Willow Springs player, the Bears managed to fall on it inside Eagles territory to start their next drive. A steady dose of Stanley runs, and a 20-yard pass from Wake to Dakota McDaniel gave the Bears a first and goal at the threeyard line. That’s where the drive fizzled after a tough goal-line stand by the Eagles however, and Liberty took over at the one with 99 yards to go.

Pruett gave Liberty some breathing room with a third down run to the 15-yard line. He followed that with a 10-yard run for another first down. Two plays later, he got the rest of it, breaking free for 71-yards and a 14-0 Eagles lead.

But here came the Bears again. With Stanley averaging over 5-yards a carry on his way to a 138yard day, the Bears started at

their own 25-yard line, and used 12 plays to drive the 75 yards for a touchdown. This time there would be no goal line stand as Wake punched it over the goal line on a quarterback sneak.

With the half winding down the Eagles lead was cut to 14-7 and the Bears offense still hadn’t punted.

Feeling the pressure, the Eagles answered, and Xander Marshall gave a preview of things to come when he caught a 23-yard pass from Pruett giving the Eagles a first down at the Bears 29-yard line. Max Rudolph caught the next pass for 12 more, and three plays later, Pruett passed to Andrew Raider for a 15yard touchdown to give the Eagles a 20-7 halftime lead.

It was some breathing room at least.

Just seconds into the second half, however, that breathing room became a rout. Marshall scored from 69-yards out on Liberty’s first play from scrimmage, and when the Bears got the ball back, the Eagles forced them to punt for the first time of the night.

Cornman promptly blocked it. The ball bounced out of the end-zone for a safety, and the Eagles lead was now 29-7. Make that 36-7 one play later when Marshall caught a 35-yard touchdown pass.

Whatever had been said in the locker room at halftime, the Eagles were rolling. The defense forced the second Bears punt, nearly blocking that one as well, and the offense went to work again.

Pruett passed to Bush for 14 yards, Orchard ran for six more, and two passes to Raider resulted in another touchdown and a 42-7 lead.

Homecoming was looking like, well homecoming.

The Bears didn’t punt the next time they had the ball, instead they were intercepted by Liberty’s Kohletin Briggs. Orchard ran for 51-yards on the next play and would have scored if not for Wake’s touchdown saving tackle. It took the Eagles two more plays to cross the goal-line and when the third quarter mercifully came to an end, the Eagles had a 49-7 advantage.

The junior varsity took over in the fourth quarter and turned in an impressive performance as

have even added a second set of conductors to the poles, some poles have snapped under the weight due to some of them being older poles.

That's something that has to be addressed. It's a safety issue, not just for the people working on it but for residents as well." Other issues that Christenson touched on were the outdated water meters which is costing the city a vast amont of water.

The cost to the city for a new electrical system, from start to finish, is a staggering $14,136,642.

In 2017 negotiations will begin again with Sho-Me power for the purchase of power rates on the city's current power rate structure. Siemens urged the city to update the electrical infrastructure and raise power rates. "Billing rates haven't raised for quite a few years.

I can tell you from a national average you're seeing 10% to 25% to compenstate for improvements. You are not the only city facing this type

Log truck overturns, blocks Hwy. 60, V Hwy.

Log Truck - Mtn. View Fire and Rescue were called to the scene of a non-injury accident on Highway 60 just outside of Mtn. View. The accident occurred on Friday, September 18 at 8:30 a.m. at the intersection of Highway 60 and V Highway. It took approximately two hours for personnel to clear the debris and the truck from the highway. The truck, while turning from Highway 60 onto V Highway overturned and lost its load of logs. The truck is owned by Jason Tune and was driven by Matthew McVicker. The accident was investigated by Sgt. Jeff Cravens of the Missouri State Highway Patrol. (Photo: Standard/Wagner)

Andrew Holdon took over at quarterback and Seth Stephens came in at running back.

Holden connected with Jackson Conner for nine yards and a first down near midfield. He found Conner again for a 32-yard catch to the Bears 16-yard line. After a nine yard run

by Holden to the Bears seven, Stephens busted up the middle for the final touchdown of the night.

Liberty’s explosive second half finally ended, and the Eagles had a 57-14 victory.

Just in time for the showdown at Mountain Grove.

From Page One

of challenge," Christenson explained. "When you have a system that is completely outdated, hasn't had any improvements, you're at this stage. It's critical that you actually start acting on this quite rapidly. It will only continue to get worse and worse."

Christenson outlined a few steps the city can take to defer the cost of the $14 million upgrade. In transform efficiency the city will save $4,200 a year; in replacing meters the city will save $200,00 a year. If the city raises the current electric rate to 15% which Siemens recommended higher but being conservative went with 15% the city would save $520,000 a year. "That's about $724,000 a year to basically move on a 15-year CIP plan to bring the city's electrical infrastructure up to date where it's safe and easy to oeprate."

Once the city agrees to let Siemens put together a plan, Siemens estimated 6 to 8 months to put together a construction plan, to gather drawings and bids from contractors and have an exact cost to the city. "You are under no obligation to move on construction once this plan is done. It will just gie you an idea of what needs to be done and how it needs to be done." Typically engineering firms charge 5% to 25% and Christenson stated that he would gather that exact cost to bring back to the city. "Right now this is all preliminary, we're on your time schedule."

In other council news, the city awarded the propane bid to Mtn. View Oil & Propane for the amount of $1.0985.

There were only two bids for the city's propane needs, Mtn. View Oil & Propane and Countryside who came in with a bid of $1.29. The motion was made by Jeff Wade, seconded by Paul O'Brien with an all in favor from the board.

Mountain View Pioneer Days, carrying on the tradition The Mtn. View Pioneer Days is a reflection of years past , traditions and good old fashion fun. It began on S aturdays in Mtn. View many years ago as people woul d travel into town to gath er supplies and catch up o n all the local news and gossip. Craftors set up boot hs, logs were hauled to t rade, farmers brought thei r livestock in to sell and women bargained at the local stores for their household wares.

Once the trading was done, the socialization began.

Stor ies were swapped, gree tings were passed as

fami lies and townsfolk gath ered downtown. It was impo ssible to walk down the sidewalk of First Street, refe rred to as Front Street in the early days, due to the amou nt of people spilling into town. Saturdays was one of the few times during the busy work week that people could relax and enjoy life . From early morning unti l late at night, Mtn. View drew folks from all neighboring communities to buy, sell, trade and socialize.

Today, we celebrate those long ago Saturdays with Pioneer Days, a tradition in Mountain View for the past

25 years. The celebration is a chance for people to dress up in pioneer clothing, swap tale s of how it used to be, watc h demonstrations of how things were crafted and just kick back and have a good time with friends and neighbors.

This year's Mtn. View Pion eer Days will be held beginning Friday, Sept ember 25 for the ham and bean supper at 4 p.m. at the Mtn. View Community Cent er. The festivities start earl y Saturday, September 26 with food, fun, music and games for the whole family Oak Street - This photo of Oak Street was taken before the “Pioneer Days” to enjoy. cakewalk circle was painted on the middle of Oak Street.

Edit or’s Note: In the spir it of keeping traditions aliv e, the Standard News has included a brief history of M ountain View we hope our readers enjoy.

Moun tain View was name d from the splendid beau ty of the area, by John Goldsberry.

Will iam H. Goldsberry, John ’s father, brought his fami ly to Hutton Valley in 1 847 (another account sugg ested it was 1853) and later moved to where Moun tain View is now.

“Eld er” Goldsberry, as he was called, was a Baptist prea cher for most of his life. He helped to start many chur ches in this region of

the Ozarks and was highly resp ected by all who knew him. Goldsberry Township is named after him. He was also a businessman and pros pector. In 1849, gold fever lured him to California in t he pursuit of gold.

Howe ver, after six months, illn ess forced him to return to M ountain View. After a long and productive life, he died in 1893 at the age of 81.

Will iam Goldsberry’s son, John Goldsberry, was born in Pulaski County in 1839 . He was a small boy when he came to Mountain View with his family. He spen t his youth working on t heir farm. As a young man, he fought in the Civil

War. He returned after the war ended to resume life on the farm. He had a passion for hunting and gained noto riety as a bear hunter.

Even tually, he and John J. Camp bell became two of Moun tain View’s earliest storekeepers.

In 1876, John Goldsberry boug ht into a partnership with John Campbell who then became a silent part ner. John J. Campbell’s fami ly homestead was loca ted near Old Town.

Some called this settlement “Cam pbelltown” - some even called it “Possum Trot.” Historical accounts of the early days indicate that John Goldsberry and John

How the City of Mountain View received its name

First Post Office – The first post office, Chapel Post Office, was established on July 26, 1860. The post office was here prior to the area even being named Mountain View.

Camp bell owned a store together.

John Goldsberry was married twice and, tragically, both of his wives died . In 1861, he married Sara h Roark who died in 1872. He married his second wife , Dorcas Weaver in 1873. She was the daughter of P eter Weaver, and early sett ler of the county. She died several years later.

Goldsberry never remarried again and had no children.

Some accounts indicate that John Goldsberry was cour ting his second wife, Dorc as Weaver when the two of them were traveling with his father William Gold sberry on a business excu rsion. The travelers camp ed for the night at the Jacks Fork River.

Surrounded by the splendid beau ty of the area, the youn g couple decided to have his father perform thei r marriage right there

at t he river. As William Gold sberry filled out the marr iage certificate, he had to enter the name of the town in w hich the couple was to be married. Well, that was a problem because their town had no official name. As Will iam Goldsberry looked arou nd at the majestic hills surr ounding the Jacks Fork River he said, “Let’s call our town, ‘Mountain View.’ and that ’s how Mountain View got its name.
