Manchester’s Mariah Mobley receives 2014 Lilly Scholarship Business Selfless gesture results in big surprise for first alternate
LILLY SCHOLARSHIP WINNER Mariah Mobley was surprised by her parents, Keith and Julie Anna Mobley and program director of the Community Foundation of Wabash County, Julie Garber, when she found out she was receiving the Lilly Scholarship. (photo by Shaun Tilghman)

by Shaun Tilghman Earlier this month, Manchester Jr.-Sr. High School senior Mariah Mobley received a disheartening letter from the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship committee stating that she had not won the prestigious, full-tuition scholarship. However, for the first time in Wabash County, the winner of the scholarship, Northfield Jr.-Sr. High School senior Emily Eckelbarger, declined the award, allowing the first alternate, Mariah, to take the prize. Originally, Mariah took pride in at least being named a finalist, and joined in praising Eckelbarger, but she now has even more reason to be proud, as she becomes the 25th Wabash County Lilly Scholar. Not long after Eckelbarger received the Lilly Scholarship, she got an offer to join the Cox Research Program at Indiana University, which included full tuition, full room and board, a research stipend, and a travel stipend for four years, according to Julie Garber, program director for the Community Foundation of Wabash County. “Not only was it a better offer than the Lilly Scholarship, but she also knew that, by declining the Lilly Scholarship, she could make it possible for another Wabash County student to get a full-tuition scholarship for college,” Garber said. “So, she came to me on Monday (April 21) to decline the scholarship. I was momentarily disappointed that Emily had to decline, but the turn of events demonstrates what great education and talented students we have in Wabash County.” Even though the research program provided such a great opportunity, Eckelbarger was still reluctant to turn down the scholarship that had been conferred by her own community. In the end, she showed tremendous character by declining the Lilly Scholarship, but she admits it was a very difficult decision. “It was excruciating!” Eckelbarger stated while on (continued on page 27)
Lighthouse Mission hires new director and store manager
by Emily Armentrout emily@thepaperofwabash.com Recently, the Lighthouse Mission Wabash County Thrift Store announced they replaced former director Claire Coyne, after Coyne announced her retirement in late 2013. The Lighthouse Mission hired Pastor Tom Curry as the new director, and longtime Lighthouse employee, Mary Harris, as the store manager. Pastor Tom Curry recently returned to the United States after being a field missionary in India for the past five years. He was a pastor in Wabash County for 17 years and he also spent 10 years in Chicago as a pastor. Pastor Curry will be in charge of outreach programs at the Lighthouse like the food baskets and growing the ways the mission can assist those in Wabash County. “We purposely try to keep our prices very, very low. People who are in need know that this is a place to help them,” Curry told The Paper. After hearing about Coyne’s retirement, Curry and his wife knew they wanted to get back to this general (continued on page 5)

community recognizes students by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com On April 24, Wabash County’s top students gathered at the Honeywell Center for a special luncheon with the county’s business leaders. The Wabash County Chamber of Commerce, the North Manchester Chamber of Commerce, and Manchester University sponsored the event. The purpose of the event was “to honor top graduating seniors from the county high schools, and to have an opportunity to encourage local talent to return to their home for employment opportunities during the summers or after graduation from their college experience,” according the a press release from the chamber. The large number of honors students was matched by a heavy community presence. Many students were able to sit with business professionals working in their areas of interest, as well as fellow students with similar college and career goals. Serving as a sort of Master of Ceremonies for the luncheon, Manchester University Associate Vice President of Finance and Director of Operations Chris Garber welcomed those in attendance and introduced Wabash County Chamber of Commerce President Kim Pinkerton, who delivered the invocation. While sharing college plans and networking with local education and business representatives, students enjoyed a light lunch consisting of a ham sandwich, pickle, and potato chips, finished with a cookie. Businesspeople had the opportunity to talk with students about current and future opportunities in the Wabash County business landscape. Students also had an opportunity to share their plans for college and beyond with the group. As usual, these ranged from detailed undergraduate, post-graduate, and career plans to those students who had no idea what the were doing after graduation. Following lunch, those in attendance enjoyed a keynote speech from Crossroads Bank Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Emily Boardman.

Wabash County Council
Dear editor, I am writing out of deep concern over the recent vote by the Wabash County Council, which approved $1,000,000. to raise the balance in the county general fund. The Money will be borrowed from the bridge fund, to pay wages and daily expenses. The fact that we are borrowing money form the bridge fund isn't the most concerning issue, but the fact that the Council and Commissioners did not even know the general fund was this low, is inexcusable. This following State Treasurer Richard Mourdock's office losing half a billion dollars, a few years ago. Every single member of the Wabash County Council, all 3 County Commissioners, and all County wide executive offices are members of the republican party. The County Council's biggest responsibility is the County budget , which they clearly can not manage. Voters in Wabash County Council District 2 will have a choice in November, to continue with this lack of fiscal management , or elect someone whom will be fiscally accountable. I pay property and income taxes just like many of you, we need to be careful what we do with that money. Chad M. Harris Wabash
This was a letter I wrote that ran in The Paper, April 9th. I would like to say for the record that, I did not attend the Wabash County Council meeting where this loan was approved, however I got my Information from the Wednesday March 26, 2014 issue of the Wabash Plain Dealer. Some of the comments are opinion, in America we are entitled to opinions. I strongly believe that the County should not be borrowing money. Questions should be asked by More County Council members, as well as from the public in general. If I am honored with your vote I will be more accountable than many of the current members.

Lighthouse Mission hires new director and store manager... continued from front page area in the United States, so they began to pray and reach out the Lighthouse’s board. “It seemed like a very good fit. The more we talked about it, the more excited we got,” added Curry. Mary Harris, a fiveyear employee at the Lighthouse Mission, was tapped to be the store’s new manager. Harris will oversee the day-to-day operations of the store. Harris started at the Lighthouse Mission as a single mother of five, looking for work to make ends meet. Harris, who was friends with Coyne, reached out to her to seek employment and
within a month, Coyne had hired her on at the mission and she has been there since. “There were a lot of years under Claire’s belt. You can’t just jump in after 23 years and know everything she knows. I applied for this position because my fellow employees thought I would be a good fit,” Harris told The Paper. “I don’t know if I ever would have anticipated being in this position because I always thought Claire would be here. I prayed about if the Lord wanted this for me, and it felt like a call. It’s a very personal thing to be in the
midst of, and I felt directed this way.” Harris also applied for the position because she believes in the store beyond just selling merchandise at low prices. “We have a wonderful staff. The mission is so much more than the store. It is about the people who come here. I believe Claire was successful in keeping the mission going because she was personable. There’s an outreach here. It’s beyond buying clothes and offering low prices. There is a much bigger aspect of what goes on here. I had no idea until I started working here of what real-
ly goes on here. I want to see the personal touch this store offers continue. All the employees have such compassion,” said Harris. Curry was in agreement when it came to the compassion of the employees. “There is compassion here. The people
who work here don’t just come for the job. They have a passion for the work. That’s what makes this place special.” The Lighthouse Mission is open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The store is located at 806 North Cass St., Wabash.

THE NORTHFIELD HIGH SCHOOL GYMNASIUM once housed prom. Here, the gymnasium is being decorated for the May 7, 1977, Junior/Senior Prom. Streamers of royal blue, sky blue and ivory, along with strands of shimmering silver tinsel and chandeliers made up the false walls and ceiling. The theme of the prom, “Stairway to Heaven,” was displayed on a golden stairway outlined with twinkling lights and angel’s hair. The “Circus City Six” provided the music. Northfield proms were first held in the school cafeteria, then the big gymnasium, and then the “new” gymnasium. Several years ago the proms began being held in various off-school sites. This year’s prom was on April 26, in the First United Methodist Church auditorium. (photo provided)

Bowman Awarded Cato Memorial Scholarship by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com On Thursday, April 24, Southwood High School senior Amy Bowman was one of 13 students in the state to be awarded the 2014 C. Eugene Cato Memorial Scholarship Award as part of the Brady
Sports Achievement Awards, held at the Indiana Roof Ballroom in downtown Indianapolis. Designed to reward exceptional studentathletes, the $2,500 scholarship is sponsored by IHSAA, Methodist Sports Medicine, the Indianapolis Colts,
Sport Graphics, Inc., and WTHR-13. Bowman’s 4.4 grade point average puts her at the top of the 2014 Southwood High School class. The daughter of Kevin and Kymber Bowman, Amy earned 10 varsity letters in high school: four in basketball,
three in volleyball and three in track and field. She is a two-time Student Congress president, two-time county sportsmanship award winner for basketball, and a leader of both Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Peers Educating Peers. Bowman is also involved in 4-H and various church activities. Hopeful students had to meet eligibility criteria to qualify for the award. Students had to be seniors enrolled in an IHSAA member school, earn at least one varsity letter, maintain a 3.0 grade point average or on a 4-point scale, and be nominated by their principal. Students also had to make a commitment to remain substancefree through the end of high school and could not have any athletic code of conduct violations or ejections from contests due to unsportsmanlike behavior. More than 100 applications were submitted for the scholarship. A six-
member panel selected the students to receive scholarships. Two panel members were IHSAA representatives, while the others represented the Indianapolis Colts, the Indiana Pacers, Methodist Sports Medicine, and the National Federation of State High School Associations. Since 2004, the IHSAA has recognized 126 studentathletes with scholarships totaling $315,000. Bowman’s scholarship is named after former I H S A A Commissioner C. Eugene Cato, who held the position from 1983 to 1995. Cato was also assistant commissioner from 1976 to 1983. Cato passed away in 2008, and is remembered for his passion for athletics and his believe in the value of athletic competition in developing character. He is also known for his “Firm, Fair, and Friendly” approach. In addition to the scholarship winners, members of the 1954 Milan High School basketball team,
made famous by the 1986 movie Hoosiers were honored at the awards ceremony Thursday, along with
the movie’s screenwriter and producer Angelo Pizzo.

Where and when you hit a shot is more important than how you hit it. Just like in life, good decisions are the cornerstone of a sound life. Never change a winning game in life or on the tennis court; change a losing one. Sometimes, a tennis match and life comes down to a battle of the minds. The player who hangs in longer wins.” AS ALWAYS, DO ME A FAVOR and have a safe and enjoyable week! Spring has finally sprung…I think.

Gorman calls for support of Sheriff Land sion for citizens. Dollars saved can be used to expand and develop other programs. As an educator, I find it gratifying that he supports the GED program for inmates. An education is the first step in changing and improving one’s life. Earning a GED certainly could be life changing for these individuals. A d d i t i o n a l l y, Sheriff Land realizes the importance of educating students about the dangers of drug use via the Choices program. It
teaches the dangers and effects of drug use. Knowledge is the first line of defense in the prevention of substance abuse. He has worked tirelessly in the battle against drugs and will continue this battle. Law enforcement alone cannot solve this problem, but with a No Tolerance policy, K9 program, multiple drug arrests and the support of the Drug Task Force, he sends a clear message that he is committed to making Wabash County as drug free and safe as possible. While drug
enforcement is important, he is not a oneissue individual. He is mindful of other issues such as traffic laws, court procedures and both county and state laws. Sheriff Land is fully committed to the law and the safety of the citizens of Wabash County. His experience, knowledge, and expertise speak for themselves, ad he needs to continue as Sheriff of Wabash County. Your support will ensure this happens. Constance Gorman

Dear editor, As residents of Wabash County for the past 45 years, we would like to share our thoughts on the upcoming election for Sheriff of Wabash County. We strongly believe in the importance of continuity of services and programs that are already in place due to the dedication and hard work of our present sheriff, Bob Land. Sheriff Land has worked very diligently with leaders and organizations in Wabash County to improve our countywide community. He has been instrumental in the following programs: the Wabash County Jail GED program,

Dear editor, Sheriff Land deserves to continue as Sheriff of Wabash County. He is committed to the safety of the citizens, works within the budget, and has the experience, expertise, and vision in law enforcement the citizens of Wabash County both need and deserve. Inmate crowding is a concern but instead of driving to build a new jail at a huge cost to voters, he utilizes the facilities in Miami County, thus saving taxpayers money. It is a sound, fiscal deci-

K-9 program, has had 287 drug arrests over the past 3 1/2 years, and has assigned a full time officer to the Wabash City Drug Task Force as well as establishing a “Choices” program in the schools to educate our young people on the effects of drug use and their consequences. The current jail capacity is 72 but the average monthly population has been running over 80. Sheriff Land has had to utilize the Miami County Jail for the overflow inmates as there is no more space to covert to inmate housing and the cost of a new jail is estimated to be 21 million, which would
mean higher tax rates. He feels that the amount of money paid to Miami County to house inmates is far less than what a new jail facility would be. We believe that he is being fiscally responsible with the taxpayers’ dollars. Based on 34 years of experience with the Indiana State Police and 3 1/2 years experience as our Sheriff, we feel he would be the best candidate for sheriff. It is in Wabash County’s best interest to continue on with a highly qualified and hard working person such as Sheriff Land. Sincerely, Dick & Jane Banker

Metz supports Kaltenmark for County Council Dear editor, I am writing to support the re-election of Jim Kaltenmark for Wabash County Council District 3. I have known Mr. Kaltenmark for thirty-five years. He has always been, honest, intelligent, hardworking, and a true gentleman. He has provided stable and reasonable leadership in his seven-plus years on the Council. I have worked with The City of Wabash on economic development issues for several years. I can tell you first-hand that his leadership in the development of the
Northeast Business Park and jobs growth in Wabash County cannot be over-stated. Government does play a key role in business attraction to each community. Wabash County has been very aggressive in the attraction and retention of business over the years, in large part because of Mr. Kaltenmark. Wabash County NEEDS Jim Kaltenmark as a County Councilman. He is a good man and a great leader. Please join me in voting for him on May 6. Sincerely, Gregory A. Metz

April 30, 2014
who contributed to the state’s literary golden age, but concentrates on the lives and careers of four individuals who loomed large during this period—George Ade, Meredith Nicholson, Booth Tarkington and James Whitcomb Riley. Indiana writers in the late 19th and early 20th century catered to readers
who preferred writing that idealized traditional values or offered escape from an ever-changing world. A 1947 study found that Hoosier authors ranked second to New York in the number of best sellers produced in the previous 40 years. From the local color poetry of Riley, the historical romances of Lew Wallace, Maurice
Thompson and Charles Major, the humor of Ade and Kin Hubbard, the fantasy of George Barr McCutcheon, the nature writing of Gene Stratton-Porter, the grim realism of Theodore Dreiser, and the mild realism of Tarkington and Nicholson, Hoosier authors worked in a variety of writing styles. Many of these writers’ works were printed by an Indianapolis publishing firm, the BobbsMerrill Company. By 1915, the firm had produced 26 titles that made the annual lists of top ten best sellers, a mark surpassing any other
publisher in the country during this period. The lustrous Golden Age of Indiana literature began to fade as changes in America’s economic and social order accelerated after World War I. Traditional values, simple pleasures, nostalgia and romance were less important to a postwar society preoccupied with business prosperity and such technological advances as the automobile, radio and motion pictures. Through the years, however, Indiana authors like Kurt Vonnegut, Jean
Sheperd, Dan Wakefield and others have kept alive the Hoosier state’s literary tradition. The North Manchester Center for History hosts three traveling exhibits from the Indiana Historical Society every year. The Center for History is happy to be a resource to bring these interesting and informative exhibits to our community. The Center for History is open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and by arrangement for group tours. Visit the NMHS website at www.nmanchesterhistory.org.

Lady Squires win Manchester Invite by Gary Andrews The Manchester Lady Squires won their own Invite Saturday, falling to Columbia City before defeating Northfield and North Miami on their way to the title. The Lady Squires were in the southwest bracket with Columbia City and Northfield, taking on Columbia City in their first game. Manchester collected just two hits in the game, one each from Brooklyn Howard and Sidney Snep. The lone Manchester run came in the first inning. Merrett Metzger drew a two out walk
and stole second to set up the Sidney Snep RBI single. Game two against Northfield ended with a different twist. The Lady Squires scored 7 runs the first three innings to lead 7-0 when Northfield erupted for 7 runs in the top of the 4th. The Lady Squires answered with 2 runs in the bottom of the inning to lead 9-7. Northfield scored one run in the top of the 5th to make it 9-8, then had to forfeit the game because of prom commitments. Manchester then faced highly ranked North Miami, who had won the south-
east bracket for the championship. North Miami was leading 30 in the fourth when the Lady Squires started to chip away. Andritsch led off with a single and advanced to second on a passed ball. Smith advanced Andritsch to third when Jordan singled to make it 3-1. Tabby DeWitt then singled to put runners on the corners when Wilcox singled to make it 3-2. Howard then singled to set up the next run which was an RBI single from Carter to tie the score at 3 after three. North Miami would score twice in the 5th
to make it 5-3 and set up the comeback. In the bottom of the 6th Howard singled and was driven home on a Carter double to make it 5-4. In the bottom of the 7th it was do or die for the Lady Squires. The inning got off to a good start when Nina Smith took advantage of a North Miami error in the outfield, ending up on third. Jordan singled to third with Smith having to hold. On the first pitch Smith stole home, tying the score and the game was headed for extra innings. After holding North Miami in the

Apaches split with Eastbrook
by Gary Andrews The Wabash varsity baseball team split a twilight double header with Eastbrook Saturday, falling in game one 6-3 before winning game two 5-4 under the lights. The Apaches had a hard time getting the bats going in game one with a Roger Davis single being the lone hit heading to the bottom of the third and trailing 4-0. Jordan Holley would start off the inning reaching on a dropped third strike and with one out Devin Hostetler singled to put runners on the corners. Grant Sailors would then single home a run and the Apaches trailed 4-1. The final scoring of the game would come in the 5th when Eastbrook scored 2 more runs to take a 6-1 lead before the Apaches responded. With one out, Kyle Kelsheimer walked and was followed by a Hostetler single. Kelsheimer would then score on a wild pitch with Hostetler later scoring on a Jordan Floor single. The Apaches fell 6-3.
Again the Apaches bats were silent in game two, collecting just 7 hits with 4 timely hits coming in the 6th inning. Eastbrook would score single runs in the first and second, then add 2 runs in the top of the fourth to lead 4-0. In the bottom of the inning Wabash got the goose egg off the scoreboard that started with a Roger Davis single. Treavor Floor drew a walk, followed by a Zach Phenis walk to load the bases. Kyle Kelsheimer drove home one with a single, but the offense stalled and the Apaches trailed 4-1 after four. Still trailing 4-1 heading to the bottom of the 6th the Wabash bats broke their silence. Davis singled to start the inning and was followed by a Kodi Fuller walk. On a fake bunt attempt Davis was caught in a rundown between second and third being tagged out. With one out Phenis drew a walk, but after a strike out it looked as though with two outs the Apaches could blow an opportu-

Riverside Extension Homemaker’s Club turns 100 years old by Kalie Ammons kalie@thepaperofwabash.com The LaFontaine Riverside Extension Homemaker’s Club celebrates 100 years of community service and teaching. The Riverside Club was organized in April of 1914 by the first dean of home economics at Purdue University, Mary Mathews and her aunt, Virginia Meredith. Their goal was to take information from the campus and bring it to the rural home. The Riverside Club originally met on the banks of the Mississinewa River at the home of Mrs. Chester Troyer. There were 10 charter members who lived near the river, and due to its location it was aptly named the Riverside Home Economics Club. The Club originally had very limited membership, as getting to a meeting meant walking or taking a horse and buggy. Soon the club grew in popularity, and decisions that have lasted to this day were made: the club flower is the pink rose, pink and green are the colors, and the club emblem has been a canoe. Each meeting begins with the pledge of allegiance and the Homemaker’s Creed, stating the members believe in community service, economic perfection and improving the
WHS Academic Awards Banquet to be held May 4
Wabash High School will be hosting its annual Academic Awards Banquet on Sunday, May 4 at 2 p.m. at the Charley Creek Inn.

This year's keynote speaker will be Wabash High School graduate Mr. Jim Wenrich, recently retired teacher and golf coach at Northfield Jr./Sr. High School.
state of the home. Meetings also teach a lesson, varying from food and gardening, managing the family home and human development. During the meetings, there is a carryin lunch. Some members remember a meeting when 60 members showed up, and almost every
member brought a pie, making a lessthan well-balanced meal for the crowd. The Club has also done incredible community service. Since the Club was organized before the U.S. entered World War I, it became very active in war work as soon as they entered. In 1926, the Club organ-
ized the local girl’s 4H Club and sponsored it for as long as was needed. However, only children of Extension Club members could be 4-H members at that time. Riverside has also made bibs and blankets for Vernon Manor Children’s Home, made lap robes and did mending
work for Rolling Meadows Nursing Home and supported Shop With a Cop. While at one time the Club reached 75 members, it today has
only six active members. The current Club officers are Jean Sneed, President; Janet Pattee, Vice President; Phyllis Brodt, Secretary; and
Connie Cook, Treasurer. The club is looking forward to new members and encourages those interested to attend a meeting.

Stirring it up with Angie Baer If you are a seafood enthusiast then you will love this restaurant-quality seafood pasta. This creamy pasta is choc-full of tender lobster, shrimp and sometimes I add scallops for extra flavor. I will admit I have tweaked this recipe just a tad bit. The original recipe calls for two whole sticks of butter! I have found that 1/2 of a stick is more than plenty. Whenever I serve this to my guests I always have requests for the recipe. This pasta is won-

MJSHS ranks #11 amongst Indiana schools US News and World Report ranks Manchester JuniorSenior High School #11 among other Indiana high schools according to the most recent rankings. This ranking puts Manchester in the top 3 percent of the 370 Indiana high schools. Manchester was also awarded a Silver Medal for this ranking, which also placed the school #924 in the national ranking. This annual report calculates the values for student performance on exit exams and internationally available exams on
college-level course work such as Advanced Placement. Manchester’s college readiness score was based on 48 percent of eligible students taking an AP exam with 47 percent scoring a three or higher on those exams. Manchester students also scored 80 percent proficient on the Algebra I ECA and 77 percent proficient on the English 10 ECA. “Student achievement and success at MJSHS starts with our elementary and intermediate school teachers and academic programs,” said
Principal Nancy Alspaugh. “We are certainly proud to rank among the best high schools in the

North Manchester Historical Society to present “The Diary” Pioneer storyteller Margaret Fritzel will present “The Diary” as part of the North M a n c h e s t e r Historical Society’s monthly lecture series.

It will take place at 6:40 p.m. on Monday, May 12 in the Assembly Room at Timbercrest Senior Living Community, located at 2201 East Street.

NORTHFIELD JUNIOR JENNA HALDERMAN recently broke her own school record in the 3200 by 16 seconds. She held the record at 11 minutes and 22 seconds, but ran an 11:06 this weekend. “It was awesome. I was trying to lower my times so I have a chance to go to the state finals and being close to hitting that time really built up my confidence,” Halderman told The Paper. Halderman’s coach and father tell her what times she needs to hit throughout the race, lap-by-lap. She has been participating in track since the sixth grade and she wants to be a part of a Big Ten college track team. The state-qualifying standard for the 3200 is 11:01. Halderman says that good days, good workouts and keeping her speed up is the key to shaving off those last five seconds. (photo by Emily Armentrout)

The Eagles will host an independent film – and one made by a Wabash native, no less.

Although the film is not yet rated, it is intended for mature a u d i e n c e s .

a crippling, apocalyptic cyber-attack, James and Lily’s home transitions from sheltered modern oasis to a fortress for the estranged old friends that show up at their door for protection and community. The unexpected reunion, abundant with revelry and remembrances, is quickly undermined by the slights of the past, the spark of lingering flirtations, and the threat of a locally grown new world order. Balancing tense confrontations with slivers of levity, Denis Henry Hennelly pinpoints a future where ideology explodes into action in every a r e a . For more than 100 years, the Eagles Theatre has been Wabash’s local motion picture theatre. Watching movies at Eagles has been a part of our community’s social fabric for generations. The Eagles recently updated their cinematic technology with the purchase of a new Christie Solaria One+ Digital Cinema Projector, which will replace the standard 35 mm platter system projector that was installed at the Eagles Theatre in 1954. The digital projector will provide optimal picture and improved sound quality. The purchase of the new projector was made possible, in part, by the generous donations received through supporters of the Eagles Theatre Improvement Fund.

Goodbye World ...continued from page 24 City of Wabash at the recommendation of the Economic Development Group of Wabash. The upgrade to digital was brought about by the phasing out of 35 mm films. As of Jan. 1, movie studios began releasing fewer 35 mm films, making them harder to come
by and costing more to lease. There are many advantages to digital releases; unlike film they cannot be scratched or damaged and do not deteriorate or become fragile over time. The new digital projector made its debut with the showing of The Lego Movie over
the weekend of April 4-6. Those who attend the May 1 showing of Goodbye World will have the opportunity to see the projector in action. The upgrade is just one more improvement in the continuing process to make the Eagles Theatre more enjoyable for guests.

In addition to being a distinguished Hoosier artisan and owner of the fine arts book publisher Studio Indiana, John Bower has traveled over
countless miles of bumpy back roads in his pursuit to capture the essence of Indiana on black-andwhite film.

life who support them. In addition to gathering students together for community, networking, and inspiration, the luncheon was held to combat the state-wide problem of “brain drain.” This is where students move out of the county and state after earning a degree. The Chamber of Commerce hopes to encourage bright, educated Wabashnatives to return to Wabash County after college and begin their careers. It appears these efforts have worked in the past. Data compiled by StateImpact Indiana concerning 2009 graduates shows that Wabash County has one of the highest retention rates in the state, with 71.1 percent of bachelors degree recipients remaining in the state

Manchester’s Mariah Mobley receives 2014 Lilly Scholarship... continued from front page
hand for Mariah’s surprise ceremony Friday morning at MJSHS. “You have a lot of personal ties to the Lilly because it’s a very communityrooted scholarship. So, it was very difficult parting ways with the Lilly Foundation, but I think the opportunity I’ve been offered will provide a lot of opportunities for me down the road. I do hope to maintain some connections with the Lilly Foundation, so hopefully I’ll have the best of both worlds.” Eckelbarger, who will study journalism at Indiana University, went on to say that she was excited not only for herself, but for Mariah as well. As this year’s Lilly E n d o w m e n t Community Scholar from Wabash County, Mariah receives full tuition to the Indiana college or university of her choice, as well as a $900 yearly stipend for required books and equipment. Mariah, who is the daughter of Keith and Julie Anna Mobley, of North Manchester, is considered an exceptional student at MJSHS. She has a variety of interests, but she plans to study pharmacy and art in college, and she narrowed her college choices down to Purdue University and Butler University, respectively. On Thursday night, she made the decision to go to Purdue based on cost, but that was prior to finding out about the Lilly Scholarship. “I’m completely blown away, I guess,” Mariah said, shortly after receiving the life-changing news Friday morning. “I was even about to fill out more scholarships because I thought I needed more money. Now, I’m definitely going to have to rethink things between Purdue and Butler. “I was waiting for my financial package from Butler, and when it came, the cost was going to be [thousands of dollars more than] the cost of Purdue, so I knew there was no way I was going to be able
to go to Butler. That’s pretty much why I decided on Purdue, and I even told my mom last night (Thursday) that we needed to send in the money by the May 1 deadline, but now I have no clue.” With regards to her college choices, Mariah said she narrowed it down to Purdue and Butler because they’re the only two schools in the state – besides M a n c h e s t e r University, which she feels is too close for her – that have a full pharmacy program. “The first two years are just prepharmacy, which I could really go to any college for,” Mariah added, “but if I want to have preference into the actual program then I need to be at one of those schools. At Butler, I would automatically go into the next four years of pharmacy school, while at Purdue, I would have to take a test and hope that I get in to the next four years. “I want to study pharmacy because I really like helping people, but I guess it also comes from when I was younger and got sick a lot. People told me that I’d probably end up being a doctor, but I hated getting all of the tests done. The medicine always made me feel better without giving me any pain; so, I thought this would be a good way to help people and to have contact with people that need help without putting anybody through pain.” Mariah’s parents had to keep the secret from her for two days, which they admitted was harder than they expected because they were so proud of her. “[Julie Garber] called me at work and I had tears in my eyes – I was just shocked,” said Julie Anna. “Mariah is a hard worker, and this is just amazing. [Her father and I] didn’t go to college, and we didn’t want our kids to have to work as hard as we did to have what we have. “We’ve pretty much told them all of their lives that they’re going to college. Our oldest daughter is a teacher,
and she says the kids have no concept of going to college, but she remembers her dad and me talking to her about college as early as kindergarten or first grade. We have five kids; the oldest three have made it and now Mariah is going, so we just have one more to get there.” Garber eventually told Mariah that she had notified the Lilly Scholarship committee of the events that had transpired. “They were thrilled about your opportunity – it was like getting to pick two people on our wish list instead of just one,” Garber explained. M a n c h e s t e r Community Schools Superintendent Dr. Bill Reichhart added, “It’s really a win-win for Wabash County, so thank you very much Emily. Mariah, you’re just a great role model for our students here at Manchester, and you’re a hard worker like your mom said. I know it doesn’t always come easily for you, so this is an example of what hard work can do. I wish you the best next year; you will represent us very well.” Mariah’s favorite areas of study are science and art. She is also a leader in her class, having served as secretary, treasurer, and vice president of the Student Council.
Mariah plays varsity softball and soccer, is a member of National Honor Society, and is vice president of Manchester’s FFA.
She also participates on the Crossroads Bank Junior Board of Directors. Outside of school, Mariah is active in 4H and her church

29 Rotary serves up pancakes on Election Day THE PAPER
www.thepaperofwabash.com
April 30, 2014
There are lots of great reasons to join Rotary North Manchester for pancakes and sausage on Election Day on May 6. The club is fully invested in the community, from annual $1,000 scholarships for two Manchester High School seniors, annual support of the North Manchester Public Library, founding investment in the
Strauss-Peabody Aquatic Center, and trailblazer funding of a half-mile hike and bike trail in northeast North Manchester, youth baseball, the annual Rotary World Affairs Conference for 100 area high school scholars and much more. The Pancake Day from 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Tuesday, May 6, in the Scout Hall in Warvel Park enables
the community’s Rotarians to support lots of projects and good causes locally and internationally. The breakfast is a semi-annual Election Day tradition in North Manchester. Hundreds of area residents gather for the great food and conversation. Tickets are available at the door or in advance for a reduced rate. A full meal of
Knights split with Eagles by Gary Andrews The Southwood varsity baseball team split a double header with Oak Hill Saturday, falling in game one 5-3 before winning game two 147. In game one, Oak Hill put up four runs in the 4th to take a 4-0 lead with the Knights cutting the lead to 4-3 with a run in the 5th and 2 in the 6th, but the Eagles added an insurance run in the 7th for the 5-3 win. ”Frazier and Curless threw a good game. We played poorly defensively and had a poor approach. Hopefully that is a day we can learn from,” Coach Holtzleiter said. In game two, the Knight bats got going early and often, as the south side bombers put up 14 runs. The Knights would score in every inning with the 5th being the largest with 5 runs.
Linda Mirante speaks with Teen Moms Teen Moms met on Monday, April 21 at Wabash Alliance Church, with Linda Mirante as the guest speaker. She related stories of lessons she learned from parenting. Examples were given of ways to encourage children by speaking words of kindness and affirmation to them every day. Mrs. Mirante reminded the moms to look for each child’s unique gifts and abilities. She recommended letting their children “overhear” them speaking positive words about them when talking with others. Supper was provided by women from Bachelor Creek Church of Christ. During craft time, the moms made decorative bottles. The next meeting will be held on May 5 at Alliance Church. Any persons interested in joining Teen Moms may register at the LIFE Center or by calling 563-7275.

Over the years, we have painted the Thomas
Marshall Home, provided a gazebo amenity at the library, tutored children in reading at M a n c h e s t e r Elementary, served up hot dogs and popcorn to thousands of Fourth of July celebrants and fueled tired and wet volunteers on Eel River Clean-up Day,” said club President Jim Smith. “And that’s only a few of the ways
we put ‘Service Above Self ’ for our community. The 36 members of the North Manchester club join 1.2 million Rotarians in 33,000 clubs worldwide in their commitment to service above self, world peace and helping Rotary International eradicate polio worldwide. This Election Day pancake tradition enables the North
Manchester club to play a role in the larger efforts of Rotary International.

Malaysia is music to Manchester’s newest Fulbright, Holly Rittenhouse Holly Rittenhouse knew her destination from the moment she stepped on the Manchester campus four years ago: She would teach. What she never imagined is where she would teach. Next January, Holly will travel 9,400 miles from her small Indiana hometown to teach English in Malaysia. The gregarious senior is M a n c h e s t e r University’s 29th and newest Fulbright – recipient of the U.S. government’s most prestigious grant to college students. The senior from rural Portland doesn’t speak Malay and has never traveled to Asia. Indeed, when Holly enrolled at Manchester, she could not imagine leaving this country or her family. She also didn’t expect the global perspective of MU campus life, and the opportunities to teach – and learn – abroad. During her junior
year, at the urging of a good friend and faculty mentors, Holly lived in Ecuador for five months with a family who spoke only Spanish. “‘Good morning, Teacher!’ the third-grade students greeted me every day at the school in Quito, Ecuador, where I volunteered in an English class,” recalls Holly of her lifechanging semester with BCA Abroad. “I will never forget their hugs, smiles and bright eyes welcoming me to the classroom. In this tiny classroom I decided that teaching English as a second language would be my career.” The following summer, she taught English to local Spanish speakers and taught bilingual children how to read Spanish. “I learned that teaching English as a second (or foreign) language means passing on an invaluable tool which students can use to
change their lives,” Holly told the Fulbright committee. “The adults I taught learned English words and phrases which they immediately used to improve their work performance, and the children I worked with learned to read the language they speak at home every day.” Today, Holly is still practicing her teaching and learning during a 150-hour student teaching practicum with the Chicago Center for Urban Life & Culture. She commutes to InterAmerican Magnet School, a public school where ethnically, economically and linguistically diverse students develop high levels of linguistic proficiency in English and Spanish. On May 18, Holly will graduate from M a n c h e s t e r University with high honors and a bachelor’s degree in early childhood and ele-
mentary education with minors in Spanish and Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). As a Fulbright ambassador for the United States, Holly also hopes to use music to teach and share her culture. Her mother is a music teacher and Holly has been active in A Cappella Choir and Chamber Singers at Manchester. “I fuel my soul through music,” she told the Fulbright committee, which favored Malaysia applicants who combine their TESOL talent with other skills, such as music and athletics. Since 1996, a total of 29 Manchester students have received Fulbright grants for research or teaching abroad after graduation. The Fulbright Program awards 8,000 grants annually, operating in more than 155 countries.

How to reduce home improvement project waste The home improvement industry has grown considerably over the last several decades, as homeowners increasingly took steps to turn their homes into personal oases. But such projects often produce substantial amounts of waste, negatively impacting the environment as a result. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, an estimated 170 million tons of building construction, renovation and demolitionderived wastes were generated in 2003; a year when the housing market was thriving and homeowners were not shying away from costly home improvement projects. With the hous-
ing market once again on the rebound, the home improvement industry figures to benefit once again. There are steps eco-conscious homeowners can take to reduce waste while improving their homes. * Save salvageable materials. Some materials simply must be discarded when making improvements to a home. But many more materials can be salvaged. When making renovations to a home, separate materials like lumber, hardware, fixtures, and even appliances that can be salvaged from those materials that must be discarded. Many communities are home to organizations that collect sal-

vageable materials, and fellow homeowners or other organizations down the road can reuse these materials. * Speak to contractors about recycling. Contractors working on a home typically know which materials can be recycled in a given area. When discussing prospective projects with contractors, homeowners can mention their willingness to recycle materials. Wood is a versatile material that can be turned into reclaimed or composite wood products, including decks or other items used around the home. Old wood being removed from a home may even work as mulch, which homeowners can spread around their yards to add aesthetic appeal and protect plants on hot summer days. Even asphalt and concrete can be recycled into new products, and homeowners should discuss their wishes to recycle as many materials as possible. * Choose recycled content building
materials. Another way to reduce home improvement project waste is to make use of other homeown-
often include the percentages of postconsumer and recovered materials used in (continued on page 32)

home. Estimates vary considerably with regard to how long the average homeowner stays in his home, with some suggesting as little as seven years. While data collected from the United States Census Bureau within the last decade suggests that roughly half of all homeown-
ers had lived in their homes for at least 10 years. Homeowners building new homes should expect to one day move, and ensuring their new homes are easily adaptable is both financially sound and eco-friendly. When a home is built with adaptability in mind, prospec-
tive buyers won’t have to make costly overhauls. In addition, homes built to facilitate future renovations won’t produce the same amount of waste as homes that are less easily adapted. Many homeowners embrace home improvement projects as opportunities to turn their homes into private sanctuaries. But those who do so with the environment in mind can significantly reduce waste and still end up living in luxury.

Wabash Area Community Theater has announced the fall musical will be Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Carousel. In a Maine coastal village toward the end of the 19th century, the swaggering, carefree carnival barker, Billy Bigelow, captivates and marries the naive millworker, Julie Jordan. Billy loses his job just as he learns that Julie is pregnant and, desperately intent upon
ed her throughout her young life. How Billy instills in both the child and her mother a sense of hope and dignity is a dramatic testimony to the power of love. It’s easy to understand why, of all the shows they created, Carousel was Rodgers & Hammerstein’s personal favorite. The director for the show will be Marsha Vermilion. Marsha is pleased to once again be affiliated with
WACT. Her last direct involvement was playing “Ado Annie” in Oklahoma. Marsha has been performing for more than 35 years and has been directing for more than 25. Her performing and directing experiences have run the gamut from classical Greek Theatre to the modern musical review. Directing-wise, her favorite shows include The Nerd and The Great Gatsby.

Schleining to run for Manchester University
BRENDEN SCHLEINING, flanked by his parents Shannon and Corey, officially commits to running cross-country and track at Manchester University Monday, April 28. “Academically, it seems like a very good university to go to. It’s not really one of the most known schools. It’s kind of quiet I like that,” said Schleining. “It’s not really like one of the main party scene schools, something I don’t want to be near or around. I just want to focus more on my studies and my sports, and they offered me a chance to participate in those sports.” Schleining plans to major in environmental studies, with a possible interest in conservation after graduation. Also pictured are coaches Troy Andrews and Troy Friedersdorf. (photo by Eric Stearley)
