Car-train accident kills teen by The Paper Staff An 18-year-old Wabash man was killed early Monday afternoon in a car-train accident at the Norfolk Southern railroad crossing on Bond Street. Wabash County Coroner Carol Whitesel said the driver’s name would not be released until next of kin had been notified. That had not happened by The Paper’s deadline. According to Wabash Police Sgt. Matt Benson, the department’s Public Information Officer, an investigation showed that at approximately 12:17 p.m., a 2004 silver Ford sports utility vehicle was northbound on Bond Street and failed to yield for the eastbound train. Whitesel pronounced the driver dead at the scene. He was the only person in the vehicle. An investigation into the crash continues pending the results of a blood test on the driver, Benson said. Investigating the accident were Wabash Police Sgt. Jerry Honeycutt and WPD officers Jeff Whitmer and Scott Long. The Bond Street crossing does not have a crossing arm, Benson said. However, Norfolk Southern crews are currently installing the arms, he added. Assisting at the accident were personnel from the Wabash Fire Department, Wabash County EMA and the Norfolk Southern Railroad Police.

County officials sworn into office

WABASH COUNTY CLERK ELAINE J. MARTIN is sworn in by Judge Robert R. McCallen, III on Tuesday, Dec. 30 in the Honeywell Center’s Honeywell Room. Martin was one of several members of local government to be sworn in to office following a landslide victory by the Republican Party in November. (photo by Eric Stearley) by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com The 2014 elections marked a big victory for Republicans, both nationally and locally. In Washington, Republicans took control of the Senate and increased their majority in the House of Representatives. In Wabash County, Republicans swept every contested race. The election cycle was also notable for its low voter turnout. Indiana saw just 28 percent of registered voters make it to the polls, a lower percentage than any other state.

On the heels of their November victory, the Republican Party of Wabash County ushered in the New Year with a number of inductions, as elected and reelected representatives were sworn in at the Honeywell Center on the evening of Dec. 30. Following prayer, Circuit Court Judge Robert R. McCallen, III called re-elected Superior Court Judge Christopher M. Goff to the front of the Honeywell Room to be sworn in. Repeating after McCallen, Goff said: (continued on page 5)

White’s Residential & Family Services acquires Christian Haven campus in northern Indiana

White’s Residential & Family Services, one of Indiana’s largest nonprofit social services agencies, announces that it has acquired Christian Haven, a residential treatment center for boys and girls in Wheatfield near Valparaiso. The acquisition is the result of careful planning by White’s and its board, and it will allow White’s to expand its level of care to secure care programs.

“White’s was initially approached by Christian Haven because it was seeking an opportunity with a faith-based organization,” said Stan Downing, White’s Residential & Family Services Board President. “As the White’s board evaluated the opportunity to expand services, it was clear that our two organizations share many of the same values – a commitment to providing the highest

quality care for children in our programs and a common mission to offer spiritual opportunities so students and families can grow in their faith.” Since its founding in 1850, White’s has grown to serve children, teens and families through six offices around the state, including a residential campus in Wabash. “ W h i t e ’ s Residential & Family

Services and the board are committed to making proactive strategic decisions that reflect our commitment to helping Indiana children, teens and families,” said White’s Residential & Family Services Chief Executive Officer Dee Gibson. “This acquisition will not only allow White’s to expand its level of care but also its continuum of services to other areas of Northern Indiana.”

Christian Haven was founded in 1952 as a nonprofit agency that provides open residential services and secure care treatment to boys and girls ages 11 to 21. “ W h i t e ’ s Residential & Family Services shares our mission of providing hope for at-risk children, teens and families,” said Christian Haven Board President John Fulkerson. “We are confident that our

students will continue to thrive in a safe, structured environment and receive the programming and services they need to make lasting changes in their lives.” In the coming

an informational video and an FAQ page that helps explain many aspects of the law and things drivers need to know before coming into a branch.” The video and FAQ page includes information on the two classes of MDCs, how to register an MDC, licensing and endorsements, what MDC plates will look

like, and general MDC rules of the road. Indiana riders began registering their MDCs on Jan. 2. Indiana State Police are limiting enforcement of the new law to warnings throughout the month of January to allow drivers time to get credentialed and properly register their MDCs without receiving a citation. Effective

Feb. 1, however, the issuance of a warning or traffic citation will be at the discretion of the trooper. It is important to remember that other police agencies across Indiana may enforce the law to the fullest extent anytime after Jan. 1. The BMV encourages anyone who intends to operate their MDC this winter to register

their MDC and obtain proper credentials as soon as possible to avoid the possibility of receiving an expensive traffic ticket. For more information on the new MDC laws, or to view the informational video and FAQ page, go to www.myBMV.com.

Services will complete a thorough eval-

North Manchester town employees, elected officials receive salary increase

Gov. Pence Authorizes State Employee Raises

By Shaun Tilghman North Manchester News-Journal North Manchester Town Council members discussed the 2015 Salary Ordinance (General Ordinance No. 8, 2014) once again on Dec. 16, voting unanimously in favor of its approval following the third reading. The ordinance, which took effect Jan. 1, includes a 2 percent salary increase for elected officials, while the salary increase for other Town of North Manchester employees will range from 03 percent. In addition, the ordinance states the

following: The 2015 Salary Ordinance for elected and nonelected employees of Town of N o r t h Manchester is hereby established in accordance with the maximum base bi-weekly salary or hourly rate per pay as set forth. For the hourly employees, discretionary raises will be given by the department head as training a d v a n c e s throughout the first year of employment. Raise amounts may vary from 10 cents to $1 at a time, for a total of $1 maximum. All non-exempt employees will report their hours worked

and will be paid by the department for whom they are performing the work. Standby utility services to be assigned by the Director of Public Works and to pay $75 per week, plus overtime for time actually worked, are hereby authorized for the Water and Sewer Departments. All full-time employees shall be entitled to receive benefits in accordance with the North Manchester policy manual and pay procedures. Full-time employees will also be eligible for longevity pay based on current town policies and their tenure with the town. Employees with special training will also be paid additional certification pay based on the current town policies. Although the ordinance was approved, one of the main dis-

cussion points before the vote was that the budget was not yet set and the budget meeting will not take place until after Jan. 1. Town Council President Chris Garber said he did not like increasing salaries without knowing the budget. “I don’t think there will be any issues if we protect ourselves by saying we’ll keep it at the existing rate until the budget reaches state approval,” Garber said. “If we just go ahead and approve the 2 percent, then [Town ClerkTreasurer Carrie Mugford] can alert us prior to the end of the year if that is an issue.” Mugford stated that there are budget changes that neither she nor the council can anticipate. She also said that when she set up the ordinance she did so to have them listed

from the lowest paid to the highest paid and added 3 percent. Her logic being that, if someone was doing good work they could be rewarded with the 3 percent increase without having to create another ordinance. Salary increases were not just a local topic recently, but a subject of discussion at the state-level as well. On Dec. 22, Gov. Mike Pence issued a letter addressed to “Fellow State Employees” authorizing pay-for-performance raises for state employees following the completion of performance evaluations in January. “Today, I am writing to thank you for the exemplary service you have provided to the people of Indiana in 2014,” Gov. Pence wrote. “Government works every day because

you care about the people of Indiana. You make it easy for Hoosiers to depend on every aspect of our state government because of your constant dedication, selflessness, and Hoosier hospitality. “This year, I am pleased to authorize a pay-for-performance increase to recognize your continued work across the state. Once evaluations are completed in January, employees who meet expectations will receive a 2 percent raise, employees who exceed expectations will receive a 4 percent raise, and employees who are rated outstanding will receive a 6 percent raise.” Gov. Pence concluded his letter by asking the state employees to accept this as thanks for their job well done for 2014.

County officials sworn into office...continued from front page

COUNTY COUNCILMEN Jeff Dawes, Kyle Bowman, Claude Markstahler, and Matt Dillon are sworn in during the Dec. 30 ceremony. (photos by Eric Stearley) “I, Christopher Goff, solemnly swear that I will support the Constitution of the United States and of the State of Indiana and that I will faithfully, impartially, and diligently discharge the duties of the Office of Superior Court Judge of Wabash County according to the law and to the best of my abilities.” McCallen then called re-elected prosecutor William C. Hartley to the podium. Hartley took a similar oath, substituting his name and office. The format was followed for the swearing in of Wabash County Sheriff Bob Land, Clerk Eleaine J. Martin, Recorder Lori Draper, Assessor Kelly Shenkel, and District 2 Commissioner Scott Givens. County council members were sworn in as a group, including District 1 Councilman Claude Markstahler, District 2 Councilman Jeff Dawes, District 3 Councilman Matt Dillon, and District 4 Councilman Kyle Bowman. The last to be sworn in were various township trustees and board members. Those elected to other posts were unable to attend the ceremony due to holdiay travel. Nearly every candidate sworn in was an incumbent. Notable exceptions were District 3 Councilman Matt Dillon and District 4 Councilman Kyle Bowman. Bowman was also the youngest individual sworn in to a political

office during the ceremony at just 27. “I originally didn’t seek it out myself,” said Bowman. “Someone approach me about it. I talked to my family and friends, some mentors in my life, and especially my wife, and I thought it was a good time to start being more involved in the community.” Bowman is not the first in his family to run for office. His father, Kevin Bowman, is a member of the Metropolitan School District of Wabash County’s board. “I’ve lived here my whole life; I was born and raised on a farm in southeastern Wabash County,” said Bowman, who will succeed Councilman Gary Nose in the fourth and largest district, composed of Lagro, Liberty, Waltz, and part of Noble Township. “I’m a Southwood graduate. I didn’t really think about politics in school. I went to college in Marion, and I was just a business major, so I avoided all the poli-sci, but I

think it’s a great chance to be involved in the community and give back.” Though he will be the newest and youngest member of the county council, Bowman has clear plans for his time in office. “I want to not only improve our community, but keep it financially sound for future generations,” said Bowman, adding that he also looks forward to getting to know the other members of the council. Bowman and Dillon join current county council members Jeff Dawes, Claude Markstahler,

Randy Curless, Michael Ridenour, and William J. Ruppel. Scott Givens will return to his seat on the Wabash

MU alum intertwines faith and service through life

It’s not too often that Ray Hedstrom, a former Manchester University football player, isn’t looking for an opportunity to help others. Since 2003, Hedstrom has been a part of a church missions group that travels to Nicaragua and an area in Kentucky to assist communities in need. “God has really given each one of us on the team a gift to be able to help these people,” he said. “It turns out that we gain more from spending time with and getting to know the people we are helping than the other way around.” Hedstrom learned about this mission opportunity from a LeGrange church he attended with his wife, Donna, also an MU alum. “There was an associate pastor’s wife who was looking to get a trip started,” he said. “I had always thought I’d enjoy that, and I have. I wouldn’t miss it for anything n o w . “We do a variety of tasks at an area called Nueva Vida in a town about 25 minutes outside of the capital city of Managua,” he said. “We’ve helped build a church, restrooms and so forth.” According to

Stirring it up with Angie Baer

The start of a new year is always inspiring for me. A fresh start is a good thing. After all, 2015 is a new year with no mistakes in it. Right? Making a resolution to become better organized, loose weight, and just being kinder to everyone I come in contact with each day is a noble New Years resolution. This year I have decided that I would be more intentional about wasting less. Yes, getting back to basics is definitely a lofty goal for me. I have been making my own laundry soap for a couple of years now. I will admit, I too was skeptical at first. I have been a die hard Tide laundry soap user for years. Making your own laundry soap is easier than you think and very cost efficient too.

Laundry Soap You will need: 1 box Arm and Hammer Super Washing Soda (55 oz) 1 box 20 Mule Team Borax (76 oz) 1 tub Oxy Clean (3 pounds) Baking Soda (64 oz) 3 bars of Fels Naptha (Grated) I use an old fashioned box grater. Mix all of the above in a bucket. Store in an air-tight container. Use 2 or 3 Tablespoons for each load of laundry

By Bill Barrows The Wabash County Basketball Tourney provided a number of exciting moments as well as some great individual and team matchups. The Lady Apaches of Wabash won the girls varsity tourney and the Manchester Squires won the boys varsity tourney. Congratulations to all of the teams for their stellar effort, and thanks to all who attended, supported the tourney through sponsorship, and served as volunteers. Jeremy Markham, the Manchester High School Athletic Director and his staff also deserve a lot of credit for hosting the tourney, and in my humble opinion, doing a flawless job. The calendar has now turned over to January, and the high school season moves on as well. Here are this week’s matchups, starting with Tuesday evening. The Lady Squires host Central Noble. The Lady Norse travel to Bluffton, while their male counterparts, the Norsemen, travel over to Kokomo. Southwood boys travel to Mississinewa, and the Wabash Apaches host Huntington North. On Thursday, the Manchester boys travel to Eastbrook, while the Lady Norse have an important TRC game at home versus Tippecanoe Valley. On Friday night, the Norse travel to Tippecanoe Valley for the first of three TRC games that night. In the others, Manchester is at North Miami and Wabash travels to Southwood, where Wabash WebTV will set up shop for the evening. Rick Harness and I will bring you all of the action from Southwood beginning at 7:30 p.m. On Saturday, there are three more contests. The Norse host Madison-Grant. There are also two girls TRC matchups, as the Lady Squires host North Miami and the Lady Knights travel to Wabash for a County Tourney rematch with the Lady Apaches. Also, don’t forget that on Wednesday evening, Wabash WebTV will broadcast the Manchester/Wabash swim meet from the Wabash County YMCA Pool area. Tammy Ford will join me for the evening. Join Wabash WebTV for the exciting action of Indiana High School basketball every week and on select dates for swimming, wrestling and baseball in season. The Wabash WebTV basketball schedule will be published in The Paper of Wabash County as well as on Wabash WebTV. If you are at a game or cannot watch it live, an archive of the featured game is available on the website shortly after their completion.

DINING & ENTERTAINMENT

First Brethren Church to host marriage conference On Feb. 20-21, the First Brethren Church in North Manchester will host a video conference entitled “The Love She Most Desires The Respect He Desperately Needs.” Based on the book Love and Respect by Dr. Emerson

Eggerichs, the conference looks at the differences between men and women when it comes to their need for love and respect. The conference is divided into three sessions. The first focuses on the “crazy cycle,” which explains negative

reactions between good-willed individuals. The second session focuses on the “energizing cycle,” looking at how these two people can positively motivate each other. The third session looks at the “reward cycle,” which deals with spousal

Enjoy nights out on the town even when it's cold

As temperatures start to plummet, people look for ways to safeguard themselves from the chilly weather and the idea of attending festivals or street fairs tends to be less appealing. But just because the mercury is falling does not mean it's time to hibernate. Dine out Al fresco dining may have to be put on hold for a few months, but restaurant dining can still be enjoyed when it is cold outside. In fact, a hearty, hot meal with friends may be just the thing to banish winter doldrums. Plenty of restaurants embellish the ambiance with twinkling lights or bubbling water features to create a serene and interesting atmosphere. Choose a restaurant with a fireplace, as a roaring fire can create the feel of a winter ski lodge or time spent sitting with loved ones in a cozy family room. Movie night Climate-controlled movie theaters make going to the movies comfortable no matter the weather outside. Attending the cinema can be an enjoyable way for couples to socialize. Catch a new release and then visit a diner or cafe for coffee and pie to rehash your favorite moments from the film. Research theaters nearby, and you may find one that is showcasing a classic film that you have never experienced on the big screen. If going out to the movies in bad weather is not tempting, host an at-home movie night with neighbors. Stream a movie from the comforts of home or order a recent release from your cable TV provider.

Heat up a bag of microwave popcorn, and you are all set for an evening of enjoyment with close friends. Dancing and/or live music Many cities and urban centers boast some sort of nightly entertainment, particularly on weekends. One way to beat the chill is to heat up the dance floor at a club or nearby social center. Clubs cater to various musical tastes, and you're bound to find one that offers your preferred musical genre, whether it's country, rock, hip-hop, or Latin-infused. Live performers offer their brand of entertainment at bars, clubs and any space that offers them a stage and spotlight. Take in a set from a local performer, and you just may witness

the first moments of a future star's career. Live entertainment need not be costly. Many bars offer live music free or for a small cover charge. Embrace the cold Fashion activities around the colder temperatures with an "if you can't beat them, join them" mentality. Plan a familyfriendly day out on the slopes or race down snow-covered hills aboard sleds and snowboards. Visit an ice rink and take a few laps around the frozen surface. Once everyone has had their fill, gather for hot chocolate or cappuccinos to warm up. Cold weather does not have to mean the end of socializing. Keep in contact with friends and family throughout winter days to buoy your spirits.

continued from page 13 with the Lord,” he s a i d . In some cases, Hedstrom and the mission teams have gotten involved in some athletics’ comp e t i t i o n . “We did get some misprinted baseball uniform tops on a trip and took them along for a game between ourselves and the group we were helping,” he said. “That was a lot of fun, as everyone knows how passionate that part of the world is about baseball or béisbol. I’ve even stepped into an impromptu soccer match with village children and so forth. I still haven’t gotten them too interested in American football though.”

Homeowners looking for a rustic or weathered look for their flooring often rely on terracotta tile, a durable and versatile material that many feel gives a home a warm and earthy feel. Terracotta tile comes in various finishes and has proven resistant to the growth of mold and bacteria. However, because it is very porous, terracotta tile absorbs moisture quickly, which means it must be sealed somewhat regularly to prevent cracking, discoloration and staining. It also must be sealed especially well when installed in a kitchen, as terracotta floor tiles are susceptible to damage from acids, alcohol, oils, and vinegar. Installation of terracotta flooring is labor intensive and is therefore best left to professionals.

Americans celebrate Groundhog Day every February 2nd. Revelers anxiously await the appearance of the groundhog to find out if they will be treated to an early spring or six more weeks of winter, depending on whether or not Phil sees his shadow. For some, it is tradition to watch the 1993 film "Groundhog Day," starring Bill Murray, on Groundhog Day. In the film, Murray plays a weatherman who is asked to cover the Groundhog Day

festivities, but finds himself stuck in a time vortex that causes the day to repeat itself over and over ad nauseum. Fans of the film may be in for a treat, as rumors suggest that the movie will soon be gracing the stage. There's no word yet who will star in the stage version, but Danny Rubin will write the script and Tim Minchin, the composer behind "Matilda," will be working on the score. It's uncertain if investors will carry "Groundhog Day" to

the Great White Way anytime soon, but there are hopes it will end up premiering in London or on Broadway inthe future. TF152942

Explore flower meanings for Valentine giving

According to the Retail Advertising and Marketing Association, florists take in around $400 million in revenue on Valentine's Day. Roses may be the most popular flower come Valentine's Day, but many other blooms find their way into the hearts of excited celebrants as well.

Flowers can be used to convey love, friendship, compassion, and desire. In Victorian times, flowers were given specific meanings because only a few exotic flowers were readily available, and many of these meanings have withstood the test of time. Giving a type of flower that signifies

you just want to be friends may not bode well for a relationship when the recipient was hoping for more. As a result, it pays to understand the subtle meaning of flowers to make gift-giving easier. The Society of American Florists has compiled the following list of flower meanings from various sources. But in spite of these meanings, keep in mind you can always work with a florist to design a personal arrangement that speaks directly to that special someone this Valentine's Day. Amaryllis: drama Anemone: fragility Apple Blossom: promise Aster: contentment Azalea: abundance Bachelor Button: anticipation Begonia: deep thinking Camellia: graciousness Carnation: pink: gratitude red: flashy striped: refusal white: remembrance

yellow: cheerful Cosmos: peaceful Daffodil: chivalry Daisy: innocence Gardenia: joy Geranium: comfort Gladiolus: strength in character Heather: solitude Hyacinth: sincerity Hydrangea: perseverance Iris: inspiration Jasmine: grace and elegance Lilac: first love Magnolia: dignity Marigold: desire for riches Orange Blossom: fertility Orchid: delicate beauty Pansy: loving thoughts Passion flower: passion Ranunculus: radiant Rose: pink: admiration/ appreciation red: passionate love red and white: unity white: purity yellow: friendship Sunflower: adoration Sweetpea: shyness Wisteria: steadfast Zinnia: thoughts of friends
