February 2, 2011 Commissioners plan for online tax sale to be held in April by Danielle Smith The Jan. 31 meeting of the Wabash County Commissioners began with John Martin, County highway superintendent, presenting the annual report for the highway department. Chief Deputy Randy Miller represented the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department in Sheriff Bob Land’s place. He reported that the average jail population from Jan. 24-30 was 62. The jail will undergo inspection on Feb. 9. Wabash County Recorder Lori Draper was granted permission to attend a conference in April. She then presented information to the commissioners about new computer programs for the recorder’s office. Laredo and Tapestry are both programs that will make records available on-line. Laredo requires a subscription plus a $1 to $2 fee to print records; Tapestry does not require a subscription but still requires an upfront fee to view and the $1-$2 fee to print records. These programs are both free to the County, and $1 will be sent to the County for each page of records printed. If the County signs up for these programs, they will also receive a property fraud alert program. This would enable property-owners to submit a phone number or e(continued on page 5)

Wabash County Tobacco Free Coalition supports potential statewide smoking ban Local business owners, managers weigh-in on issues by Shaun Tilghman On Jan. 31, the Indiana House of Representatives voted 68-31 in favor of legislation to ban smoking in many public places statewide, with the exception of casinos, bars, nursing homes, and private clubs. The next step will be for the legislation to go before the State Senate, which has happened several times in recent years and each time it has been defeated. This time though, supporters of the ban are increasingly optimistic given that the exceptions allow for a better chance of the legislation passing. One such local supporter is Dan Gray, coordinator of the Wabash County Tobacco Free Coalition, who has dedicated much time to presenting information about secondhand smoke and the benefits of a nonsmoking ordinance. “I’ve been working as coordinator of the Coalition for four years,” Gray said, “but the Coalition has been in existence for at least eight years and this has been a gradual process. What we have been trying to do is educate Wabash County about the dangers of secondhand smoke.” According to Gray, the possibility that legislators will mandate a statewide smoking ban is promising in itself, but an issue arises in the form of the exemptions. “We want to have a comprehensive ban so that instead of just protecting part of our citizenship in the county we can protect
SMOKEFREE STATEWIDE? The Indiana House of Representatives recently approved a statewide smoking ban with several exemptions, and the next step is a hearing in the Senate. In the event that the statewide ban does not pass, local supporters are prepared to pursue a countywide ban for Wabash County, which would also be more comprehensive. (photo provided) everybody,” Gray explained. “By making exemptions in an ordinance like that you’re picking who’s going to have a healthy environment and who’s not. The Senate can make changes, and I’m told that our chances of the Senate deleting those exemptions before voting on it are good, which would give us a more comprehensive bill.” Gray has also begun laying the groundwork for a countywide ban, in the event that the bill does not pass at the state level. “Our Coalition believes that [Wabash County Hospital] and the [Wabash County Health Department] are the largest promoters of our health throughout the county,” he added. “The hospital board is showing unanimous support for an ordinance, whereas, at this time, the health board is divided on
the issue.” During a health board meeting in October 2010, Gray presented information regarding the effects of secondhand smoke, which led to discussions of a nonsmoking ordinance. After seeing the matter tabled, Gray returned to the health board on Jan. 18 with further documentation, including a
Surgeon General Report and studies from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The health board made a motion regarding support of an ordinance, but also included in the motion was a stipulation that they would not be the enforcers of an ordinance. The motion was met with a tie vote, 2-2, and was
defeated. “I still want to work with the health department,” Gray continued, “and as it stands we will discuss the matter again at their meeting in April. [Their support] is important but either way we’re not going to stop promoting having an ordinance. It’s important that we understand the health board did-

Key Senate committee to consider Banks’ legislation, lifting Indiana’s “death tax”
On Feb. 1, a key committee will consider eliminating the state’s “death tax”, thanks to legislation crafted by State Sen. Jim Banks (RColumbia City). Banks said the Senate Committee on Tax and Fiscal Policy would consider lifting Indiana’s tax on inheritance income – also known as the death tax – at 9 a.m. in Room 431 of the Statehouse. “Only six states levy an inheritance tax, with the rate depending on the relationship of the heir to the deceased,” Banks said. “By eliminating the inheritance income tax in our state, we could attract investments and keep retirees in Indiana, which could lead to economic growth.” Banks said 17 of his Senate colleagues have signed on as coauthors of the bill including: Sens. Phil Boots (RCrawfordsville), Mike Delph (R-Carmel), Doug Eckerty (RYorktown), Ron Grooms (RJeffersonville), Travis
Holdman (R-Markle), Dennis Kruse (RAuburn), Jean Leising (ROldenburg), Ryan Mishler (R-Bremen), Johnny Nugent (RLawrenceburg), Allen Paul (R-Richmond), Scott Schneider (RIndianapolis), Jim Smith (RCharlestown), Jim Tomes (R-Wadesville), Greg Walker (RColumbus), Carlin Yoder (RMiddlebury), Mike Young (RIndianapolis) and Joe Zakas (R-Granger). This legislation – which calls for a fiveyear phase out of the state’s inheritance income tax – is the first filed by Banks and his first bill to receive a Senate hearing. Indiana imposes an inheritance tax on those whose are residents of the state when they die. Banks said the tax is paid by the heir that receives the inheritance – excluding spouses and charitable organizations. Tax rates vary depending on the beneficiary’s relationship with the descendent.
For example, children are taxed at a lesser rate than a distant cousin, who would in turn be taxed at a lesser rate than a friend of the deceased. “I believe Indiana must responsibly phase out the inheritance income tax,” Banks said. “It’s necessary lawmakers work together to pass this legislation and send a positive message to hard-working Hoosiers.” Banks said by eliminating the inheritance income tax, the state could attract investments, which could lead to econom-
ic growth. Taxes on state and federal inheritance income and estates will cost this generation of Hoosiers thousands of jobs, according to the American Family Business Foundation.

Girl Scout cookie sales have begun Girl Scouts of Northern IndianaMichiana is ready to provide the community with its favorite treat as they learn valuable life lessons. This year, Girl Scout cookies will be on sale from Jan. 14 to March 14. Customers can help girls build business skills and gain financial knowledge as they sell these Girl Scout cookie varieties: Thin Mints, Shortbread, Peanut Butter Patties, Peanut Butter Sandwiches, Caramel deLites, Thanks-A-Lot and Lemonades. Along with these old favorites, a new light, crisp Belgian-style caramel flavored cookie called Shout Outs is being introduced this year. The Girl Scout Cookie Program is the largest girl-led business in the country and helps girls build important life and leadership skills. Though cookie program activities, girls learn how to plan, build teams, speak up, make decisions, solve problems and manage resources. These skills help girls learn to be leaders – ultimately in their own lives and in our communities. Girls
are the main beneficiaries of all Girl Scout activities, cookie directly and indirectly. While learning valuable life skills and earning money for their troops, the girls decide how to spend that money to achieve their troop projects and goals. “We don’t know of any other youth-orient-
ed activity where the girls themselves decide what to do with the money they earn,” says Frederick, Connie product manager. If you don’t know a Girl Scout, you can visit www.gsnim.org to find a Cookie Booth near you or call the Girl Scouts of Northern Indiana-Michiana at 260-422-3417.

On Jan. 25, the Honeywell Center Educational Outreach Program provided White’s Residential & Family Services students with a special program, Poetry Alive, at the Wabash campus. Poetry Alive was founded in 1984; two-person acting groups travel school districts worldwide, and bring to life poems found in popular textbooks and high school curriculum. They also provide students the chance to participate on stage with the actors. Jenni Engle, White’s student activities director said, “White’s has appreciated the opportunities that the Honeywell educational outreach program has given to our students over the course of the school year. The program has provided our students a real opportunity to be taught great life lessons through watching the different performances from the talented artists and musicians.” White’s has participated in many of the offered events over this last school year including: - Ayrie King III, Mr. Taps, presented the many different styles of tap and the history of tap from African slave ships to Broadway musicals. - David Fisher, Rope Warrior, demonstrated timing, rhythm, footwork, and the value of physical fitness. - Aaron Barker, Grammy-winning Nashville songwriter, gave an interactive workshop about song publishing and poetry as he worked with the students to write a jingle. - Steve Seskin, a songwriter, used the Operation Respect anti-bullying curriculum as the basis of his workshop. “White’s is so thankful that the Honeywell Center is providing our students with valuable educational opportunities within this program,” said Engle. “We look forward to the future shows.” For more information, call Bill Gray, marketing director, at 260-223-4464 or e-mail bill.gray@whitesrfs.org, or visit www.whiteskids.org.

Brian D. Frieden, director of the Springfield Regional Office of the Risk Management Agency, informs producers that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Risk Management Agency (RMA) will offer insureds an opportunity to insure crops following cover crops in the Springfield Region by requesting a written agreement. Frieden says, “The use of cover crops has increased during recent years in the states of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio. Much of the increase is attributable to cost share assistance programs such as Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP), Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP), and others provided by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) for the benefit of reducing soil erosion and nutrient runoff.” Generally, in the Springfield RO region, insurance is not available for corn or soybeans following another crop (i.e. cover crop) that has reached the headed or budded stage or that has been harvested in the same calendar year. If the cover crop growth is not terminated before reaching the headed or budded stage or the cover crop is harvested in the same calendar year, insurance may now be available through a written agreement provided certain criteria are met. To request a Type/Practice Written Agreement to insure a crop following a cover crop, insureds should speak with their crop insurance agent. Insureds must submit a completed Request for Actuarial Change form; a completed Actual Production History (APH) form with separate databases for the “following a cover crop” practice; the location of the acreage where the practice is being used; the type of cover crop being grown; and the method of cover crop termination (if the termination has occurred at the time of the request). If approved by RMA, the written agreement will specify a rate, a transitional yield (by crop) for the acreage, and that the cover crop growth must be terminated by May 15 of the current crop year. Producers may consider this offer and accept or decline coverage.
4-H members to order veal by Feb. 9 4-H members that plan to enroll in the veal project must order their calves by Feb. 9. All calves will be provided by the same producer and cost the same amount of money. Each 4-Her may order a maximum of two calves. To place a calf order, a $50 deposit per calf is required at the Purdue Extension Office and the remainder is due at time of pick up. Call 260-5630661 ext. 246 for more information. Calves will be delivered Feb. 18 at Northfield Jr./Sr. High School around 5 p.m.
Applicants needed for SelfReliance Award
Applications for the 2011 Beauchamp & McSpadden Self-Reliance Award are currently being sought by the Wabash Kiwanis Club through Feb. 25.

All seniors residing in Wabash County and graduating from any Wabash County high school are eligible to compete, except for those seniors whose parents/guardians are members of the Wabash Kiwanis Club. “We are pleased to annually sponsor this excellent program that recognizes Wabash County seniors who have demonstrated self-reliance. It is gratifying to provide this opportunity to acknowledge and reward these students,” said Karen Daughtry, spokesperson for Beauchamp & McSpadden. Six seniors will be selected to receive the award through an application and interview process by the Wabash Kiwanis Club. Each of these six individuals will be awarded $500. The awards will be presented by Beauchamp & McSpadden at a noon luncheon on April 26 at the Honeywell Center. Seniors who are interested in applying should pick up an application from their high school guidance counselor or visit www.wabashkiwanis.com to get a copy of the application online.

Democratic mayoral candidate speaks to community
Commissioners plan for online tax sale... continued from front page
On Jan. 27, Marcia Short placed her name on the ballot as a Democratic mayoral candidate for the 2011 election. Short has been a Wabash resident for most of her life, and she ran a small business, Marcia’s Beauty Salon, for 54 years. She is a mother of four and a grandmother of eight, and she attends United Methodist Church. This is Short’s first attempt at political office. If elected, she plans to focus on the job market, fighting drugs and implementing an open-door policy at the mayor’s office. “I want the people to know that if I’m elected I will really be a worker and will try to accomplish the goals that I have set,” Short said.
Wabash County Tobacco Free Coalition supports potential...continued from front page
most restaurants or situations there is no true smoking or nonsmoking area,” said Darren Kaczmarek, store manager, “smoke is in the air and it floats between the two. When we did the transition to open up the store three years ago we decided to go non-smoking. “Being the first, you’re always going to upset a few people. When we first opened there were a few negative comments because people didn’t understand why we did it, but once we explained that we didn’t really have separate areas for each section they understood. “Obviously it’s a better environment for the customers when eating, especially kids. We’re more of a family restaurant and not being subjected to secondhand smoke makes a big difference.” Many businesses offer smoking and non-smoking options, and the owners / managers of those establishments often feel that it should be left to the customer to decide what they’re comfortable with. “I’ve got 100 seats, with a smoking section that seats about 40 people while the larger part seats about 60 people and is non-smoking,” said Bill Gerding, owner of Market Street Grill in Wabash. “People that
come in are asked whether they prefer smoking or nonsmoking, and here’s a little paradox: People wanting non-smoking when they come in will often take seats in smoking to avoid a wait, but turn it around and smokers will generally wait for seats in the smoking section despite available seating in nonsmoking. “From what I’ve heard about the percentages of people that smoke and don’t smoke in Indiana, the majority of the population is non-smokers. I would think that majority could control the situation either through a referendum vote or by not being a customer at a place that offers
smoking. “I don’t feel [a smoking ban] would have any affect on my business at all as long as everybody was in the same boat. For example, you can’t have a county go nonsmoking and a county next to them be smoking because somebody’s going to get hurt in that situation. Frankly I don’t care one way or another; if they do it then they do it, but you can’t just pick out one little section – if you’re going to do it, everybody should have to do it.” Doug Westendorf, owner of the Time Out Inn and Sandwich Cellar in North Manchester, echoes some of those same sentiments. (continued on page 8)
mail address to receive notification if anything is filed under their name at the recorder’s office. “I know we haven’t had a problem here yet, but in some counties there has been fraud with properties,” Draper said. “It’s great especially if you have elderly parents because that’s where a lot of the fraud happens.” The commissioners agreed to consider these options for a few weeks before making a decision. Draper concluded by informing the commissioners that $120 could be saved on each order of copy paper if the judicial center and court house would place their orders together rather than separately. A public hearing was held on the petition to vacate a portion of Blue Star Highway. The area to be vacated is a dead end area near the Wa b a s h / H u n t i n g t o n county line. The commissioners approved the petition and County Attorney Steve Downs will bring the ordinance next week for them to sign. Joe Edwards, vice president of SRI, attended the meeting to discuss options for the upcoming tax sale. Last fall, the County conducted an online tax sale, which was extremely successful, raising $138,000 for the county. The commissioners agreed to again hold the tax sale online. The sale will be held in April and will be available for 10 days, most likely beginning on a Thursday and ending on a Monday. The minimum bid will be $200.

erty in nine critical areas who apply best-mana g ement practices to reduce pollution – particularly decreasing suspended sediment, nitrogen, total phosphorous and E. coli – could receive up to 75 percent reimbursement. Best practices range from cover crops and grassed waterways to waste basins and wetland restoration. District Natural Resources Conservation Service conservationists will review and approve costshare projects, which must be maintained for five to 10 years, depending on whether they are vegetative or structural. All projects must be complete Dec. 31, 2012. Nine watersheds in the 30-mile Eel River Initiative are identified as critical areas in the W a t e r s h e d Management Plan, Silver including Creek, Beargrass Creek, Little We e s a u - We e s a u Creek, Flowers Creek, Otter Creek, Squirrel Creek, the
Town of Roann, Washonis Creek and Oren Ditch-Paw Paw Creek. The Feb. 9 meeting is important for discussing questions, concerns and comments about the $1 million Initiative that is in its third year of serving a 30mile stretch of the river between North Manchester and Mexico, said W a t e r s h e d Coordinator Terri M i c h a e l i s . Scientists at the meeting also will report on water monitoring results of the river, which is on the EPA “impaired” list for excessive levels of E. coli, PCBs, mercury and other pollutants. Manchester College leads the Middle Eel River Initiative, collaborating with Wabash, Kosciusko and Miami county agencies, organizations, landowners and others. For more information, contact the watershed coordinator, Terri Michaelis at 260-9825101 or tmmichaelis@manchester.edu.

Life lessons from Guitar Hero Ok, so we’ve added Guitar Hero to our growing stack of games at the Youth Center. I watched as one of the teens was playing; he was doing pretty well, hitting the right button at just the right time to stay on beat. As the game’s applause meter was gradually increasing and it looked as if his attempt at this particular song would be successful; he became distracted by what some of the other teens near him were doing. As his focus on the game changed he began to get off beat and soon was booed off the Guitar Hero stage. Does your life sometimes seem that way? As if you went from applause to boos in an instant? Honestly, it happens to all of us at some time in our lives, something or someone steals our focus and soon we begin to feel as if we will never get back on track. If this sounds familiar to you please remember, there are people who want to see you succeed and there is a God who will never boo you off stage. He is a God of second chances and nothing you can ever do will make Him love you any less. “So let’s keep focused on that goal, those of us who want everything God has for us. If any of you have something else in mind, something less than total commitment, God will clear your blurred vision – you’ll see it yet! Now that we’re on the right track, let’s stay on it.” Philippians 3:15-16 The Access Youth Center, 74 W. Canal St., is open for all ages, Monday-Friday, 3:30 - 4:30 p.m.; for middle/high school Bible study, Wednesday, 7 - 8 p.m.; open night, Friday, 7 - 10 p.m., and Saturday, 6 9 p.m.

Wabash County Tobacco Free Coalition supports potential...continued from page 5 Indiana state
“We’ve been here over 20 years and we’ve always had a completely non-smoking section (in the restaurant downstairs) and a smoking section (in the bar u p s t a i r s ) , ” Westendorf said. “We also have an outside area nearby where people can go to smoke. I would estimate that our bar customers are probably split 50-50 in terms of those that smoke and those that don’t smoke, and it doesn’t seem to really bother the non-smokers. “I think we’re all adults and we’re able to make these decisions on our own; there are other issues out there that are more important than a smoking ban. Each owner or each establishment is capable of making their own rules about whether people can smoke there or not, and if
smoking ban, but I don’t think there should be exceptions.” The Main View offers a non-smoking family area, but also has a bar that allows smoking and a separate banquet room that can be used to suit either need. “I don’t think it would be very hard for our bar customers to go non-smoking because some people are already accustomed to it,” he continued. “I’m assuming we get customers that are from areas with ordinances because they’re used to going outside to smoke. “Some customers get upset when someone comes in and smokes on the bar side but they know the bar side is smoking for now and that we do offer a nonsmoking alternative. I think people adjust pretty well, and it’s
people don’t like it they’re not going to go there but that’s up to the people that own the businesses. “If an ordinance ends up being statewide then it’s the same thing for everybody and it really doesn’t matter. If it’s a countywide ban I can see people going out of the county to other places that still allow smoking because that’s what they like to do when they go out, which would hurt business. If our they’re going to do it and make it the same for everybody then I’m not really going to be that upset about it, but the issue of putting these people in it and taking those people out of it is really all just a game.” Scott Carlin, manager of the Main View Inn in North Manchester, added, “I have no problems with a statewide

Coalition] I feel the message has been out so now it’s time to go a step further,” Gray explained. “We’ll be showing a video of people that have been exposed to secondhand smoke and how it has affected their health. Also, business owners and managers will be speaking about how it has not affected their business being smoke-free. We’ll then be introducing facts about the dangers of secondhand smoke and a panel of eight individuals will speak about the importance of having an ordinance.” According to Gray, everyone in attendance will have the opportunity to write out a question to be answered by the member of the panel that best relates to the question. As the meeting will only last an hour and a half, any questions not answered during the event will be published with answers in subsequent editions of The Paper. “We’ll also be distributing the names of our legislators and encouraging people to contact them,” Gray concluded. “From there it will sort of be a wait-and-see situation as far as what happens with the state. If we need to take further action then the next step is to approach our commissioners to implement a smoke-free ordinance for Wabash County.”
treasurer to speak at C3 meeting Feb. 7
Richard Mourdock, Indiana’s 53rd state treasurer, will address the Wabash County Tea Part, C3, on Feb. 7 at 7 p.m. The meeting will take place at Bachelor Creek Church of Christ. Mourdock took office in February 2007 and was re-elected to another four-year term in November 2010. He brings to the office a 30-year record of executive experience in the Hoosier energy, construction and environmental industries. He serves as Indiana’s chief investment officer, where he seeks to maximize the return on the state’s investment portfolio. He also serves on a total of 13 boards and commissions by virtue of his office. In addition, Mourdock currently serves as the vice chairman of the College Savings Plans Network and the Midwest regional vice president of the National Association of State Treasurers. In his first term, Mourdock was at the center of the national debate regarding the bailouts of the automobile industry as he pursued a case on behalf of IN pensioners to the U.S. Supreme Court. As a result of the case, he has been frequently cited for his willingness to stand up for the rule of the law, the U.S. Constitution and individual property rights. Mourdock has served on numerous Christian mission trips to Bolivia and is currently training to run the Chicago Marathon on his 60th birthday, which will officially be his ninth marathon. A sought after speaker on the subjects of Abraham Lincoln and early American politics, he lives with his wife, Marilyn, in Darmstadt.

usually just those one or two people that complain about sitting on the bar side with the smoke but yet they still sit on the bar side. “Also, we choose to have our employees that smoke do so outside. It’s their right to smoke but we don’t want them smoking inside in front of customers or other employees, where those people are then subjected to the secondhand smoke. As far as the employees that don’t smoke, they know the circumstances of the environment just like customers.” Circumstances similar to those have resulted in over 40 municipalities in Indiana implementing some form of local smoke-free air law. As of now, the individual communities regulate whether the laws affect workplaces, restaurants, bars, or some combination of the three. Gray has hopes that Wabash County will soon join the ranks of those already adhering to a smoke-free law in the State of Indiana. His efforts to educate the citizens of Wabash County about secondhand smoke and his hopes of gaining support for an ordinance will combine during a special Town Hall Meeting, Feb. 22, 5:30 - 7 p.m., at the Wabash YMCA. “During my term [as coordinator of the Tobacco Free

Indiana State Police investigated 86 crashes in December
WPD investigates a recent robbery
Indiana State Police at the Peru Post recently released statistics for the month of December. Troopers issued 1,173 traffic citations and wrote 1,705 traffic warnings. Troopers also arrested 37 drunk drivers and made 55 criminal arrests. There were 23 commercial motor vehicle moving violations and 86 vehicle crashes were investigated. Lt. Matt Bilkey, district commander of the Indiana State Police Peru Post, would like to remind Hoosiers that troopers will continue to have zero tolerance for seat belt and child restraint violations. “The simple act of wearing a seat belt increases a person’s chance of surviving a crash by fifty percent,” Bilkey said. “Motorists should make sure all occupants are properly restrained before starting their vehicles.” As the winter driving season continues motorists can check road conditions throughout Indiana by calling the Indiana Department of Transportation Road and Weather Line at 1-800-261-7623. The information can also be obtained online at www.trafficwise.in.gov.
The Wabash Police Department is investigating a robbery that occurred at approximately 9:15 p.m. on Jan. 11 at the NAS CITGO located at 958 N. Cass St. A male subject, 5’10” to 6’ tall, wearing all black with a black mask and black gloves, entered the store and sprayed the clerk with pepper spray. The subject fled the scene on foot with an undetermined amount of U.S. currency. If you have knowledge about this crime, Crime Stoppers wants to hear from you. You could receive up to a $1,000 reward if you have information that would lead to an arrest. Crime Stoppers also pays cash rewards for information on other felony crimes not featured as Crime of the Week and on the capture of fugitives. Call Wabash County Crime Stoppers at 260-5635821 or toll free 1-866-665-0556, and give us your information, not your name.

Lake County Trooper hit and injured
On Jan. 10, a trooper assigned to the Indiana State Police Toll Road District was hit and injured by a fleeing stolen car. At approximately 6:27 p.m. (CST), a driver called the State Police Toll Road and told them of a hit and run crash that had just occurred west bound on I-90 at the 51-mile marker (near the LaPorte SR 39 exit). The driver was able to give a description of the vehicle that fled the scene. Trooper Ron Davidson saw the vehicle west bound at the 42-mile marker (just east of the Michigan City U.S. 421 exit). As Davidson tried to stop the vehicle, it started to pull over, and then took off. Trooper George Hornsby, 30, a two-year veteran of the department, was at the 25-mile marker (approximately a mile before the Portage exit) waiting behind his police car to deploy his stop sticks. As the vehicle approached Hornsby was attempting to throw the stop sticks when the vehicle swerved to the right and hit Hornsby. The vehicle then exited off onto Willowcreek Road in Portage and went north. Hornsby was transported to North Lake Hospital, Gary, where he underwent surgery on his leg. WE NEED YOUR ASSISTANCE: The vehicle that fled the hit and run crash, failed to stop for a trooper, then hit and fled after striking a trooper has been described as a silver 2003 Toyota Camry four door with Indiana In God We Trust license plates JF 1575. The Toyota would have front end damage and was being driven by a white male with a white female passenger. The Camry was reported stolen to Gary Police Department on Jan. 7. Anyone with any information on the Toyota or driver please call Detective Mike Robinson at the Indiana State Police Toll Road District 574-234-4157.

Citizen expresses concern for county recycling fees Dear editor, When the County Commissioners and County Council had meetings in North Manchester and Wabash about fees for county recycling I was not aware that the fees would affect all Wabash County taxpayers. All taxpayers will find a new assessment on their tax statement. The taxpayers in Wabash and North Manchester will pay $12 yearly while rural residents will pay $24 yearly. I do not see any new benefits that come from this assessment. County residents already pay for the recycling program, as it is county-funded. Taxpayers need to talk to the County Commissioners and County Council persons to let them know this is an unwanted tax. Tom Willcox Wabash
Reahard expresses political concerns Dear editor, The lame duck Democrats just passed the Death Tax (Estate Tax) of 35 percent. This seems to me a double tax, since taxes were already collected on all this money when it was first declared as income. So now they penalize a person for not getting all their money spent before they died. Isn’t this immoral: To steal from a dead person? Just because they are dead, can’t protest and can’t vote doesn’t make it right. Don’t they realize how many family farms and businesses will have to be sold in order to pay this tax. Government will close down, steal the farms and put thousands of families out of work. Is there no shame? How will this help our economy grow? How can the unemployed pay taxes? Now the Democrats plan to start running my healthcare with Death Panels. With the new Death Tax, there is no incentive for them to keep me alive. This doesn’t seem like the healthiest proposition for me. Didn’t the Nazis have a national healthcare program and a death tax too? This didn’t work out so well for the Jews, the physically handicapped, the mentally slow, the aged and others. Don’t they know that life is sacred? Oh, that’s right, they don’t know. What if they find out I’m not a Democrat? I’m doomed. Take me to a Catholic hospital! I just heard that Republicans get upset when you tell them a lie, and Democrats get upset when you tell them the truth. Which one makes you upset? Are you searching for the truth or another lie? R.C. Sproul said, “Without truth, everything is manipulation.” I’m feeling manipulated. Do I have to spend my money to keep it? Do I have to buy health insurance? Isn’t the government supposed to protect my life, liberty and property? Is this a government of liberty or socialism? Russell Reahard North Manchester
Williams highlights political discrepancies Dear editor, Has America become the land of the special interest and home of the double standard? Let’s see: if we lie to the Congress, it’s a felony, and if the Congress lies to us, it’s politics; if we dislike a black person, we’re racist, and if a black dislikes whites, it’s their First Amendment right; the government spends millions to rehabilitate criminals and they do almost nothing for the victims; in public schools you can teach that homosexuality is OK, but you better not use the word God in the process; you can kill an unborn child, but it’s wrong to execute a mass murderer; we don’t burn books in America, we now rewrite them; we got rid of the communist and socialist threat by renaming them progressives; we are unable to close our border with Mexico, but have no problem protecting the 38th parallel in Korea; if you protest against President Obama’s policies you’re a terrorist, but if you burned an American flag or George Bush effigy it was your First Amendment right. You can have pornography on TV or the Internet, but you better not put a nativity scene in a public park during Christmas; we have eliminated all criminals in America, they are now called sick people; we can use a human fetus for medical research, but it’s wrong to use an animal. We take money from those who work hard for it and give it to those who don’t want to work; we all support the Constitution, but only when it supports our political ideology; we still have freedom of speech, but only if we are being politically correct; parenting has been replaced with Ritalin and video games; the land of opportunity is now the land of hand-outs; the similarity between Hurricane Katrina and the Gulf Oil Spill is that neither President did anything to help. And how to handle a major crisis today? The government appoints a committee to determine who’s at fault, then threatens them, passes a law, raises our taxes and tells us the problem is solved so they can get back to their reelection campaign. What has happened to the land of the free and home of the brave? Kenny Williams Lagro
Dillard suggests maternity ward for new hospital Dear editor, It would seem to me that any plans for a new hospital should include women’s right to have their babies born at the proposed Wabash County Hospital. Over the road, out of the county birthing seems not only dangerous with present weather conditions, but very short-sighted to the future mothers of Wabash County. Mothers, now is the time to express yourselves. Please do. My concern? I was just blessed by the birth of a great-granddaughter and am looking forward to a great-grandson soon. I also thank Huntington County for having a hospital that provides wonderful care for mothers and their babies. Bernie Dillard Wabash

Coats for Kids campaign is a success
Dear editor, As the owners of The Works, LLC, Ice Cream Café we extend a very special thanks to the following individuals, agencies and businesses that worked so hard to make our 2010 Coats for Kids a huge success. The compassion of the Wabash County citizens is wonderful. During the 2010 campaign they donated 160 coats to the drive so kids will be warm this winter. Special thanks to The Youth Service Bureau, who distributed the coats, hats, gloves and scarves for us; Wabash Poly Clean, who cleaned many of the coats for us so the kids would have clean coats to wear; and to Ms. Lola Glazier for providing mending services for coats that needed a little extra attention; The Wabash Plain Dealer and The Paper of Wabash County, who provided advertising to help us get the word out asking for coats to be donated and announcing that the coats could be picked up at Operation ELF. During our seven years of collecting coats, over 1,502 coats have been donated by Wabash County citizens. It is great to live and own a business in a community with so many compassionate citizens; we are looking forward to next year’s campaign.

doing for so many years serving women in Wabash and surrounding counties. I feel that God has placed me in this important position, and I hope that we can continue to glorify Him in the work that we do,” said Meyer. Former director, Jeni Friedersdorf, is stepping into a new position as client service manager, performing volunteer training and overseeing consultants. “We appreciated the excellent leadership Jeni has given to the center and are excited that she will be continuing her service in this new managerial role,” said Meyer. Meyer is looking forward to leading the exciting growth of the LIFE Center. The center recently obtained an ultrasound system to assist in the counseling of clients. Two obstetric physicians from the surrounding area have volunteered to perform the ultrasound readings. Meyer plans to hire a nurse manager who will perform the ultrasounds and pregnancy tests. She states that the center is also taking steps to become a medical center. Another staff change is the center’s new administrative assistant, Constance Herrell. Herrel recently moved to Wabash from Rochester and has a three-year-old son. “Constance has been with the center for just a few short weeks, but she’s already a great asset,” said Meyer. The LIFE Center has provided services to women of Wabash County since 1983 and currently has a need for volunteers. For more information about the LIFE Center or volunteering, call 260-5637275. The LIFE Center is open on Monday, Thursday and Friday from 1 to 4 p.m. and is located at 78 W. Hill St., Wabash.

S U M M E R EVENINGS IN A JAR: I don’t know about you, but I’m glad I worked my tail off puttin’ up food last summer and fall. I can’t help but recall just a few short months ago, when I was sick to death of tomatoes, vowing if I never saw another one, it would be too soon. That was the feeling after being knee-deep, for three days, with three bushel. I had resigned myself (and did a happy dance) to the fact that we weren’t going to have any more tomatoes. And in walks my cousin Mary with another three bushel. Yeah, I was sick
of tomatoes. We were sick of tomatoes. But, she kept insisting we needed more of this, and more of that to make it through the year. She put the word out for more tomatoes to her friends while I plugged my ears and made goofy noises so not to hear her. Even after a month passed since that first bushel, I was still sick of tomatoes. But she was right. And, because of several generous people who had better luck with their tomatoes, and shared with us, we stood over the stove for another three days in a tomato recipe frenzy. I’ve shared with you folks my feelings about tomatoes – the fact that I don’t eat them raw, and don’t look forward to sinking my teeth in that first Indiana-grown, red, juicy ball of glory. And
I’ve shared how my parents lived for that Indiana homegrown tomato, so much so, they planted 350 of them one year only to be frosted out and then replanted them. Now, I have the same sort of desire for the tomato, but for different reasons. For the past two years, we haven’t had enough tomatoes produced in our garden to write home about. Last year, we planted 30-plus plants and may have gotten a heaping bushel off them. You could say I’m now at war with tomatoes. The Hubby and kids, however, do like them fresh out of the garden. That being said, I do love stocking other tomatobased food items on the shelves: ketchup, spaghetti sauce, BBQ sauce, tomato juice, and salsa! This would account for the six bushel of tomatoes we

ended up with last year. Time heals. I no longer feel contempt for tomatoes. Now, every time I open a home-canned jar of tomato-something, it takes me to peaceful summer evenings. Where the sun’s setting, the evenings get cooler, folks are gathered on the back porch sipping sweet iced tea overlooking the garden and all it holds in store.

Convicted felon arrested for possessing guns
On Jan. 27, Indiana State Police Master Trooper Earl McCullough arrested Raymond E. Hicks, 62, 157 E. Washington St., Bunker Hill, on a Miami Circuit Court arrest warrant alleging a class B felony charge for unlawful possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon. Hicks was arrested without incident at a residence in the Cedar Creek Trailer Court, Peru. He was incarcerated in the Miami County Jail with a bond of $50,000. In October 2010, officers from the Indiana State Police, the Miami County Sheriff ’s Department, and the Bunker Hill Police Department started a criminal investigation after receiving an anonymous tip of possible illegal drug activity occurring at a residence on 157 E. Washington St., Bunker Hill. This address was well known to law enforcement due to the fact
there were 23 calls for service in a four-year span. During the course of the investigation, officers developed probable cause and obtained a Miami Circuit Court search warrant for the residence. In late October 2010, officers served the warrant and allegedly found a misdemeanor amount of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Occupants of the home, James E. Jarman, 32, and his wife, Angela M. Jarman, 23, were arrested. They were charged with a class D felony count of maintaining a common nuisance and two misdemeanor counts for possession of marijuana under 30 grams and possession of drug paraphernalia. Continued search of the Bunker Hill residence purportedly revealed a rifle and a shotgun in a bedroom inhabited by Hicks. His criminal conviction status could not be verified at the time the weapons were found. A case report was forwarded to the Miami County Prosecutor’s Office after it was determined that Hicks was convicted in 1978 of felony battery in Jasper County. This information led to probable cause for an arrest warrant to be issued for Hicks.

The building has vacant for been many years. Because it is one of a few four-story buildings in North Manchester and because it stands out so prominently from other buildings in that vicinity, the old cigar factory has become somewhat of an icon in the downtown area. After determining that the structure was sound, it was decided that it should be restored and preserved. The Historical Buildings Preservation Group (part of the North M a n c h e s t e r Historical Society) has begun that process. The first phase includes stabilizing the masonry (brick walls) and also includes the roof, gutters and downspouts. Jim and Debbie Chinworth will
present details of restoration this project. As an icon, the Old Cigar Factory immediately says downtown North Manchester. It ranks right up there with the Covered Bridge, the Sheller Hotel, the Thomas Marshall birth house, the Peabody Tower, the Manchester College Chime Tower, the DeWitt automobile and perhaps a few other well-known icons of our town. Programs are held the second Monday of each month at T i m b e r c r e s t R e t i r e m e n t Community in the A s s e m b l y Room. For reservations for the dinner at 6 p.m., call Karl at
982-2216 or Evelyn at 982-6777. The program begins at 6:40 p.m. and is free to the public.

Many of you will remember that Mr. Dave’s was originally Mike’s Standard Station, “in the loop”. Known as the Ridgley Building, the cigar factory was built in 1909. There were two cigar firms operating on the premises at two different times. Blackmore Cigar painted the large 40-foot long sign on the west side, facing Market Street.

More members are always needed to help with local projects as well as projects throughout the United States and the world. Lion Michael Snell gave a lesson in signing at the close of the meeting. Club members were asked to learn the first five letters of the signing alphabet by next meeting. Each of
the club’s next meetings will close with a short lesson in how to sign.

They will be traveling with 10 other members from the Congregational Christian Church in North Manchester to Borel, Haiti.
Lori and Stacey want to thank all of their church family for their donations and support as they have prepared for this trip and ask for continued prayers for their travel and work. At this time they are not sure what projects they will be working on, but they say they are willing to do whatever they are asked to do.

Twenty-five area grapplers advance to regional Wells is county’s lone sectional champion
NORTHFIELD’S HUNTER WELLS handles his finals opponent, Huntington North’s Alex Robinson, during sectional action Jan. 29 at Peru. Wells won the match by pin to secure his secondstraight sectional championship and earn a regional berth. (photo by Shaun Tilghman)
by Shaun Tilghman Wabash County wrestlers were met with stiff competition during the IHSAA Sectional #13 at Peru on Jan. 29, but they battled hard all day in securing 25 of the 56 places that ensured advancement. The top four individual finishers from each weight class will compete in the Peru Individual Regional on Feb. 5, facing the top four individual finishers from the Oak Hill Sectional. Huntington North was represented in the finals of nine of the 14 weight classes and recorded six champions en route to winning the team title with a score of 231. Maconaquah took second with 185, followed by Northfield (177.5), Peru (160), Southwood (132), North Miami (114.5), Manchester (106.5), Wabash (100), and White’s. Northfield had their sights set on second place overall and looked to be in good shape heading into the finals, trailing only Huntington North. Four Norse
wrestlers reached the finals in their respective weight class – Jon Delong (119), Hunter Wells (145), Joseph Ross (189), and Scott Ammons (215) – but only Wells was named champion, after pinning Alex Robinson from Huntington North. “We set a goal of second place at sectional and we thought we could probably do it, but we just had a few guys that didn’t place where we wanted,” said Northfield coach Gary Norman. “We got about as many in the finals as we thought we would – we just hoped for a couple more championships. With sickness and injury you
just try to do what you can and hopefully it works, and this time we came up a little short. You can’t fault the guys for trying their best but sometimes it just doesn’t work out. “Hunter (Wells) was aggressive all day and is looking really good. Jon (Delong) got into the finals as the second seed and we knew he would have a tough match because he got pinned by the guy earlier in the year. I thought he did a little better today than he did last time but we knew it would be tough. Joseph (Ross) did a good job all the way into the finals; there he got caught in a cradle and just
couldn’t get out of it. Scott (Ammons) beat his guy earlier in the year and we were looking for a good match, which it turned out to be – just not in our favor.” Along with those individuals, the Norse also had four thirdplace finishers: Tanner Chamberlain (130), Jared Kirtlan (135), Spencer Miller (152), and Evan Huiras (171). “They all did a good job of getting in there and trying to do what they could do,” Norman stated. “Spencer Miller was a really good surprise once again. After wrestling JV for most of the year he comes in and gets third place
Southwood vs. North Miami Story of the Game Southwood: Dalton Gentry - Strong rebounding. North Miami: Zac Roth - Solid defense on Mike Cook.
Star of Game Southwood: Levi Winget - Complete game for Levi, with solid rebounds and points. North Miami: John Harris - Solid night on offense and defense.
despite being a little inexperienced and nervous – that’s nice to see from a sophomore. Now we’re just trying to prepare the guys that advanced for next week and hopefully send some guys on to semistate.” Joining the Norse grapplers at regional will be eight individuals from Southwood, including secondplace finishers Trevor Rebholz (130) and Logan Schneider (171). Other Knights placing in the top four were: third place Kyle Dickey (145) and Jacob Smith (285); and place fourth J o h n a t h o n Friedersdorf (125), Nick Striker (135), Josh Brainard (140), and Nick McCown (152). Four Manchester Squires earned the right to compete at the next level, including third-place finishers Payton Sorg (140), Aaron Snep (189), and Cole Sellers (215). Justin Dill (119) also advanced by placing fourth. Wabash was led by a second-place finish from Trever Williams (135) and a third-place finish from Cooper Bostwick (103), respectively. Three other Apache wrestlers moved on to regional via fourthplace finishes, they were: Austin Niccum (112), Brandon Hunt (130), and Justin Sturgill (285).
