THE PAPER May 25, 2011
Sheriff receives 55 applications for two available positions
by Danielle Smith The May 23 meeting of the Wabash County Commissioners began with the commissioners approving County Wabash Recorder Lori Draper’s request to purchase a new desk for her office at a cost of $1,794.74, which includes delivery and set-up. County Highway Superintendent John Martin presented a permit to fix a tile on CR 700 N; an application for utility burial to retire a gas main on 85 N. Wabash Ave., North Manchester; a request from NIPSCO to install service at 2685 N. Old SR 15; and a right-of-way certification for Bridge 61 on CR 700 W. He also presented the 2010 Annual Operational Report for the County Highway Department. Wabash County Sheriff Bob Land reported that 83 inmates are currently being housed in the Wabash County Jail. He also informed the commissioners that he has 55 applicants for the two positions he needs to fill. Those applicants will undergo written and physical testing, then the remaining applicants will continue on for interviews and background checks. Christa Stroup attended the meeting to request permission to purchase five new computers for the Circuit Court at a cost of $3,840. The computers range from three to five years old. The commissioners (continued on page 6)

City Council passes ordinance banning use and sale of “bath salts” by Danielle Smith On May 23, Wabash City Council completed an initiative to help remove “bath salts” from the shelves of our local convenience stores. City Council President and Police Officer Scott Long first heard about “bath salts” on the Internet three months when the drug was becoming popular in Louisiana, Alabama and Kentucky. “It popped up on my radar then and I thought ‘if they are doing it down there it won’t be long before it ends up here,” Long said. He was right, at least three of our local convenience stores began selling the product
and many of our residents began using it. “The effect that this is having on the people that are ingesting it is unbelievable. We’ve had longtime drug users of methamphetamine and cocaine saying this is a far greater high than they have ever got on those things, which is scary,” Long said. Indiana took notice of the dangerous drug and passed a law prohibiting sale or possession of “bath salts”, however, the law will not take effect until July 1. Wabash law enforcement officers continued to see an increasing number of “bath salt” users and offic i a l s
became determined to expedite the process. Three weeks ago, Long began working with City Attorney Doug Lehman to draft an ordinance immediately banning the sale and possession of “bath salts”. A high school prom attendee suffering from difficulties due to the product sped the process even more. “That really amped up everything and we pushed getting this ordinance done so that we could get it off the shelves,” Long said. Even with the ordinance drafted, City Council had to jump through a few procedural hoops in order to have it take effect immediately.

“Normally when we pass an ordinance that has a fine as punishment, the state law requires us to publish a notice in the newspaper 30 days before that ordinance becomes effective,” Lehman explained to the Council. By the time the 30 days were completed, the State law would have already taken effect, removing the necessity for the ordinance. Lehman determined that the only way for the ordinance to immediately be enforceable would be to have the mayor proclaim that there is an “urgent necessity.” If the mayor makes a proclamation that there is urgent necessity, the ordinance becomes effective
once notice has been posted in at least three public places in each of the five council districts. Mayor R o b e r t Vanlandingham also felt it was important to give newspapers time to publish an article announcing the ordinance. General Ordinance No. 5, 2011, passed first and second readings unanimously, then the mayor proclaimed the presence of urgent necessity. “These chemicals are extremely dangerous to the health, safety and even the very lives of the citizens of Wabash; especially, but not limited to, our youth and young adults,” Mayor
Vanlandingham proclaimed. Notice of the ordinance will be posted at Village Market, Penguin Point, Brother’s Mart, City Hall, Daily Express, The Works, Village Pantry, A to Z Tobacco, Plaza Mini Mart and a few other locations by 8 p.m. on May 24. The ordinance becomes effective at noon on May 26. “That would give any people who are selling, possessing or using an opportunity to dispose of these chemicals before it enforcebecomes able,” Lehman said. After May 26, those (continued on page 6)
NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION: Makers of “bath salts” labeled their products as “Not for Human Consumption” in an effort to circumvent laws prohibiting their usage. The new local ordinance, taking effect May 26, will prohibit the sale or possession of the drug. (photo by Brent Swan)
American Legion Auxiliary continues 91-year tradition of poppy fundraiser by Danielle Smith On May 27 and 28, members of the American Legion Auxiliary will head out into the community to continue a 91year tradition of offering poppies in return for donations to our veterans. The poppy became synonymous with remembrance of fallen veterans as a result of a poem, In Flanders Fields, written in 1915 by World War I Colonel John McCrae. “In Flanders fields the poppies blow; between the crosses, row on row,” the poem reads. It refers to the many soldiers that died on Flanders’ battlefield, which was located in a region of western Belgium and northern France. The first poppy sale
was held in 1920; the proceeds went to the American and French Children’s League to assist orphans and others left destitute by the war. In late 1923, unemployed or disabled veterans began constructing the artificial poppies for distribution. This is a tradition that has continued to present day. Wabash residents will have opportunities to purchase poppies handcrafted from crepe paper by residents at the Marion VA Hospital. Ladies from Wabash’s American Legion Auxiliary will be at various Wabash businesses offering poppies for donations. All money raised from the poppies goes back to the veterans at Marion VA. The

Wabash County’s Economic Index shows slight decline by Richard Harshbarger, Emeritus Professor of Economics, Manchester College The Economic Index for Wabash County declined slightly in the first quarter of 2011. The index fell to 107.6 (1985=100). This .8 percent decline is in line with the slow growth of the U.S. economy for the first quarter of 2011. The slowdown follows a year of significant growth in 2010. The growth is hopeful to return in the remainder of 2011. The growth was stimulated by the increase in the demand for electricity for industrial firms. This demand for electricity by manufacturing industries is a proxy for increased out put by these plants. The 1.5 percent increase in electrical usage offset the minor declines in the other economic factors in Wabash County. Employment
has its usual seasonal decline for the winter months. Bank deposits adjusted for inflation showed a minor decline of .1 percent. Housing continued in the no growth mode. Electrical demand by industrial firms rose to an index of 146.0 (1985=100) for the first quarter of 2011. The increase is 10.3 percent since the midyear of 2010. Following a growth of 9.0 percent in 2010, the continued growth in industrial demand for electricity stimulated the economic environment in Wabash County. The growth in 2010 followed a major cutback in electrical demand from 2007 to 2010. The increase in out put by industrial firms appears to be following the trends for the state and national economy. Employment followed the usual seasonal charge for the first quarter of each year. There were 24,439
workers employed in March 2011. This is a 3.7 percent decline for the first three months of 2011. On a year-toyear comparison, there has been a 2.3 percent decline with the index falling to 88.8 (1985=100). The low point for employment in Wabash County was September 2009, with 13,209 workers employed. Increases in employment should follow through summer and fall with a potential increase for employment to the 7.0 percent increase in employment in 2010. Bank deposits adjusted for inflation fell .3 percent in the first quarter of 2011. Most of this decline was due to a 1.9 percent increase in the consumer price index. Even with this increase in prices, the inflation-adjusted bank deposits rose .8 percent in the past twelve months. The unadjusted deposits rose to a new high of $650 million. This minor
decline in demand deposits adjusted for inflation is likely to expand through the remainder of 2011. New housing permits continue at a low level. There were three permits issued in the first three months in Wabash County. This matches the low level in the first quarter of 2010. Housing starts have been in doldrums since 2007. New housing has not been a major stimulus for Wabash County. The summer months will likely show some increase in housing starts, but no major influx of new homes. The first quarter of 2011 has shown a slowing in the national and state economy. This slowing is reflected in the economic environment of Wabash County. The growth in the national economy will continue through 2011 and benefits should accrue to the economic conditions. The
growth in the local economic environment may be lower than the national conditions. However, economic conditions

Alfalfa, pastures suffer from heavy rainfall, saturated soils
Consistently saturated soils from heavy spring rainfall have taken their toll on some of Indiana’s forage crops – especially alfalfa grown on soils that are less than moderately well
Johnson said. “The plants are yellowing or showing a pea green color, which means soils have been too water-saturated for nitrogen fixation to occur.” The stress and moisture also can make alfalfa plants more prone to common diseases, such as spring black stem, rhizoctonia or phytopthora. While samples containing these diseases have not yet made their way to Purdue’s Plant and Pest Diagnostic Laboratory, they have been common alfalfa diseases in past years. weather As
drained. Alfalfa samples that Purdue Extension forage specialist Keith Johnson has seen have suffered from too much moisture. “Alfalfa is the most prone to problems,”
improves, Johnson urged producers to harvest their alfalfa crop when the crop is in late bud to very early flower. “The best alfalfa growers can do at this point is hope for drier days and get out there and harvest the first cutting,” he said. “They should evaluate which fields can be driven upon without damage to cut legume crowns or grass stem bases.” But even if producers are able to harvest the crop soon, the first cutting may not be a “grade A” feed crop, Johnson said. “The stress means
the protein content is down and that the energy content could be in question,” he said. “As livestock producers balance livestock rations they should certainly analyze stressed crops before feeding them to their animals.” Livestock producers also may notice problems with damaged pastures, depending on soil types and the types of grasses present. Luckily, however, because temperatures have been cool during the recent floods and heavy rains, with the exception of a couple of days, stand loss
shouldn’t be as much of an issue as it would be in mid-summer. “Heat during floods is much worse for pastures than the recent cool temperatures,” Johnson said. “We have pretty resilient pastures, especially in southern Indiana where tall fescue is dominant, so livestock producers just need to think about soil types and let animals graze in areas less prone to damage.” If pastures show signs of damage caused by hoof action or water saturated soil, Johnson urges producers to continue
to scout damaged areas and determine if reseeding is necessary, he said. For cool-season grasses and legumes, like those common in Indiana pastures, the next ideal seeding time is August and very early September. Livestock producers also can wait to overseed in late winter months. “Farmers can work now to get pasture fertility in line, control broadleaf weeds and then over-seed in late winter,” Johnson said.
Wabash County unemployment rate falls below state and national averages in latest report by U.S. Dept. of Labor Wabash Mayor Bob Va n l a n d i n g h a m reacted to the United States Department of Labor’s release of unemploycurrent ment statistics with anything but surprise. According to
FRIDAYS on the FARM MOST FRIDAYS, 5-8 PM featuring
the U.S.D.O.L., Wabash employment has increased by 1.7 percent to 14,707 and unemployment fell to 7.9 percent. This marks the first time that the Wabash unemployment rate has been lower than that of the State of Indiana for several years. The Indiana unemployment rate of 8.1 percent is also lower than the U.S. rate of 8.7 percent. “The City of Wabash and our partners, the Town of
North Manchester and Wabash County elected officials, have worked tirelessly with the Economic Development Group to encourage job creation by supporting private investment into Wabash County and the region.” M a y o r Va n l a n d i n g h a m added “We expect that our efforts will continue to bring economic and employment opportunities to the people and businesses of Wabash
County.” M a y o r Va n l a n d i n g h a m acknowledged that the efforts of all of the partners, including the Wabash County Chamber of Commerce, Wabash Marketplace, Inc., the Convention and Visitors Bureau and EDG, in consultation with the elected officials from the city and throughout the county are responsible for the creation of an environment that supports business invest-
ment and job creation. a y o r M Vanlandingham stated that one of the hallmarks of his administration has been to foster teamwork and cooperation among local units of government and all of the community-based organizations charged with the responsibility to revitalize, expand, and diversify the Wabash economy.

What to do if you find an injured or baby animal By “rescuing” an injured or apparently abandoned baby wild animal, you may be doing the opposite of what you seek to accomplish, and break the law. This time of year, thousands of animals are born in the wild. With the spread of suburban areas into their natural habitats, young animals are increasingly born near humans, who are more apt to discover them without an adult animal nearby. When this happens, a few reminders are especially pertinent. While some baby animals may be orphaned or abandoned, that’s not always true. Picking up a baby animal that is not orphaned or abandoned is not only usually unnecessary, it can be bad for the animal. It’s also illegal if you don’t have the proper permit or take the animal straight to a licensed wildlife rehabilitator. Such animals also pose safety and health risks for humans. They may look helpless, cute and cuddly, but they can bite or scratch people who attempt to handle them. Some wild animals carry parasites and infectious diseases, some of which can be transmitted to humans. “The apparent lack of an adult does not mean a young animal is orphaned,” said Linnea Petercheff, operations staff spe-
cialist for the DNR Division of Fish & Wildlife. “Adults often leave their young alone, safe in nests or dens while they forage for food, but rarely do they abandon their young.” If a bird has fallen out of a nest, it is OK to gently return it to the nest. The best way to make sure an animal is truly orphaned is to wait and check it periodically. If you are unsure, place some strings or sticks across the nest. Place some grass across the top of a rabbit nest that is found with young in it. If such items are later disturbed, the mother has probably returned. In such a situation, leave the young animal alone. The adult will return after you leave the area. As an example, rabbits often come to the nest to feed their young only a couple of times a day. The best way to make sure that a fawn that appears to be alone is truly orphaned is to wait and check it periodically. Before taking any action, remember the following: If the fawn is not injured, the mother is likely nearby. Leave the fawn alone and its mother will probably come and get it. Deer can take better care of their young than a human can. Human scent on the fawn will not prevent the mother from taking care of it.

If you do not see any deer nearby, have someone watch the fawn without being seen by the mother. In most cases, the mother will come back and get the fawn after you leave the area. If you believe the mother has not returned to a nest or a deer has not come back to feed her fawn, or you know that the mother is no longer alive, call a licensed wildlife rehabilitator listed at: www.wildlife.in.gov. Remember, state laws prohibit keeping protected wild animals without a permit. Most species of wildlife are protected by law and cannot be kept as a pet. Federal laws also prohibit possession of migratory birds, including songbirds, raptors and waterfowl. It is even illegal to treat wild animals for sickness or injury without a permit. Wild animal rehabilitation permits are issued to qualified individuals who take in sick, injured, or orphaned wild animals with the intent of releasing them back into the wild. If you encounter an injured, truly abandoned or sick wild animal, do one of the following for assistance: Check the DNR w e b s i t e , www.wildlife.in.gov and click on “Wildlife Rehabilitation”

the veterans’ graves around Urbana.” Glazier is in the middle of three generations of men that spent time overseas in combat. Her father, Forrest Baer, served in World War I and became the first Veterans’ Affairs Officer in Wabash. Her husband, Charles “Chuck” Glazier, served in World War
I; then her son, Merle Glazier, served in Vietnam. She has been a member of American Legion Auxiliary for 67 years. Mullett and Leakey each have over 60 years membership as well. “Those of us who have never been on a battlefield have no conception of what it really is like,” said Jean Leakey, chair-
man of American Legion Auxiliary for 25 years. “Whether it was leaping out of the trench, hitting the beach at Normandy, or walking through the rice paddies in Vietnam, war is hell. Losing a friend, a comrade, takes a greater toll on a soldier than we can ever comprehend, that’s why it’s important to remem-
ber the dead of the battlefield and to honor the living that returned. So when you see one of our ladies in front of a store, asking for a donation, please give to our veterans.” The Auxiliary is in need of volunteers to help distribute poppies. If you are interested, contact Jean Leakey at 260-5632584.

deprive somebody of any profit from selling this stuff,” Lehman said. After the State law becomes effective on July 1, these violations will be prosecuted in Superior or Circuit Court and it will become an
offense punishable with incarceration. “I think we, as a city, need to step up to the plate to help get this stuff under control because it’s really scary what kids are doing,” said Council Member Boo Salb. “I commend
you guys fo r getting this made up so quickly.” M a y o r Vanlandingham concluded by thanking the police department, the drug task force, the superintendent and principal of the school and
other community members. “This is something that was needed and appreciated very much and this is the way things are supposed to work,” Va n l a n d i n g h a m said.

agreed to allow the purchase using Title IV-D funds. County Attorney Steve Downs reported that charges will be filed this week against the local convenience stores that recently sold K2, synthetic marijuana, to
undercover officers. He reported that only one other charge has been filed under the ordinance, which was for possession. The defendant pled guilty to that charge. C o u n t y Coordinator Jim Dils presented requests to replace air conditioner coils in the Circuit Courtroom and the Recorder’s Office. The commissioners approved the requests at a total cost of $5,740. Dils also presented an application for the second payment on the remodel of the commissioners’ meeting room. The com-
missioners approved the $21,150 payment. This leaves a remaining balance of $16,000. Stan Bagley attended the meeting as the representative for the recently created Laketon Area Regional Sewer District. He informed the commissioners that a board must be established; members will be appointed by the Laketon trustee, Wabash County Commissioners and Wabash County Council. They also need to retain an attorney with municipal law qualifications to represent the board.
The meeting concluded with remarks from Commissioner Barry Eppley. He announced that a plaque of appreciation would be presented to retiring Metro North Principal Mark Coppler for his many years of service. He also reported that a committee is suggesting a two percent wage increase for county employees. The committee makes the suggestion to the department heads and it is the department heads’ responsibility to request the increase from County Council.

Extension Homemakers hold President’s Luncheon and Achievement Day The annual President’s Luncheon / Achievement Day was held April 28 at the Roann United Methodist Church. Historic Wabash County was the theme for the day. There were several historic items from the early years of Wabash County on display. Following the welcome, pledge to the flag and Homemaker’s Creed, the special guests were introduced. In attendance were: Barb Keyes, state president; Carolyn Mosson, district representative; Jo Almond, First Readers chairman; and Joni Rich, logo chairman. Jan Marilyn Harris, Matlock and Arlene Matlock, all of Tippecanoe County, were Host-a-Hoosier guests. Roll call was answered by 13 members of Happy two Homemakers, members of Kountry Kaleidoscope, 10 members of Liberty Bells, six members of Richvalley, one member of Harmony and three members of Riverside. Liberty Bells was the overall winner of the Honor Club Award. The revised bylaws were distributed. Liberty Bells won the Reading Points Award with the most points as a club. Elaine Cochran, a member of Riverside, won the individual award for the most points. A memorial service was shared for members lost this past year, which included: Theda Dawes and Janet Turner, members of Liberty Bells, and Laura Coldren, a member of Richvalley; Joyce Brewer ended the memorial service with a poem and a bubble tribute. Twenty-one members were recognized
for their membership of more than 50 years. Members that reached 50 years this past year were: Ellie Draper, Happy Homemakers; Carolyn Royce, Liberty Bells; and Mary Jean Wendel, Harmony. Five new members were recognized, including: Mindi Henson and Alice Stephenson, both of Happy Homemakers; Carol Snyder, Liberty Bells; and Julie Thompson and Sylvia McConell, both of Kountry Kaleidoscope. Four clubs have been chartered for over 50 years. Those clubs are: Riverside, since 1914; Harmony, since 1940; Happy Homemakers, since 1953; and Liberty Bells, since 1951. Outgoing county officers were recognized. Carolyn Royce led the installation ceremony for the incoming officers who will be: Joyce Brewer, president; Bonita Kirtlan, secretary; Mary Ruth Mendenhall, assistant secretary; Ruth Dyson, treasurer; Mary Jean Wendel, assistant treasurer; Jane Long, volunteer community support chairperson and advisor; Ellie Draper, education c h a i r p e r s o n ; Marguerite Guenin, leadership chairperson; and Sherry Truss, 4-H council representative. Happy Homemakers won the attendance award by having 13 of their 14 members present. The speaker for the day was Pete Jones. He spoke about the U.S. Survey that was done east of the A p p a l a c h i a n Mountains when this country was first being settled. The U.S. Survey marked the land into 640 square mile sections, which were then divided into smaller parcels. All

parcels were laid out with straight lines. This made property, township and county lines easier to identify than the random lines that had been drawn of the east A p p a l a c h i a n Mountains. Two students were selected to receive $200 scholarship awards and were invited guests for the luncheon. Rebecca Haynes, Southwood Jr./Sr. High School, and Bailey Shear, Northfield Jr./Sr. High School, were honored and are seeking degrees of higher education and exemplified the mission of the scholarship goals. Club presidents gave reports about what their clubs had been doing for the past year. Each club had many things to talk about and had been active throughout the year. Harmony Club is disbanding this year due to the lack of members and their ages. The organization gives free books to all the Head Start children as part of the First Book Readers program. Volunteer readers go to the classrooms during the school year. This program celebrates nine years in Wabash County this year. This year’s readers were recognized. They were Michelle Atkinson, Cindy Beard, Patty Sausaman, Joyce Brewer and Esther Wagner. The First Book Readers of Indiana are celebrating 10 years at conference in June. Lunch was catered by Scott Poole. Following lunch, Jean Gilbert held a trivia quiz about things pertinent to Wabash County. Nearly 50 people viewed the cultural arts items and voted on their favorites, result-

Assembly passed a budget. Shortly before the end of the session, the state got the first up-beat revenue forecast in six years. Revenue projections increased by $762 million. That helped, of course, but Indiana’s budget for the coming biennium is still as tight as any in memory. That’s especially important for local schools, because school operating costs now depend almost entirely on state aid. Then came Election Day, May 3, and the voters decided seven school referenda. Each new round of referenda teaches us more about what influences yes and no votes. Then, property tax bills were due on May 10 in almost all the counties. In some counties taxpayers were unpleasantly surprised by tax bill increases, because of the loss of state and local homestead credits, and the increase in tax rates resulting from slow growth or decline in assessments. Higher tax bills make for more tax cap credits, and we now have data on tax cap credit revenue losses for many counties. Professor Larry DeBoer will discuss these and other important issues for local government.

Halderman Real Estate Services named third largest in national auction house rankings Halderman Real Estate Services has been named the nation’s third largest land auction house according to the editors of The Land Report Magazine. The listing announced the top thirty real estate auction companies ranking them by annual land sales. The ranking of the top land auction houses in the United States is based on the total value of their 2010 domestic land auctions. Auctions considered for ranking purposes exclud-
ed commercial, industrial and primary residential properties. “Our clients, along with our field and marketing staff are the reason we are successful,” stated Howard Halderman, president of the Halderman companies. “To achieve this ranking requires a dedicated and knowledgeable field staff combined with a service focused marketing team who collectively deliver the professional and effective auction services our
clients expect. When combined with an aggressive agricultural land market, this high level of service, resulted in our auctions delivering record setting results for our clients and our company.” Over the past five years, the H a l d e r m a n Companies have sold over 830 tracts of farmland, transitional/commercial land and residences via auction and private treaty. These sales totaled over $370 million, making
Halderman Real Estate Services one of the largest rural real estate brokers in the Midwest. The ranking is based upon the gross sales amount in 2010 of $68 million. The Halderman Companies have been in business since 1930, specializing in the appraisal, sale, acquisition and management of agricultural properties. The team of Certified General Appraisers, professional Farm Managers and Real Associates Estate

SHARP CREEK ELEMENTARY recently sponsored a school-wide Read-athon to raise awareness and funds for wildlife rescue. Their reading theme for the year was “Reading is an Ocean of Fun”. They asked students to focus on reading for the Read-a-thon in April. Some students collected pledges or donations for the number of books read. All students were responsible for bringing our book count to 369 for the week. To date, Sharp Creek students have recorded 9,310 passed tests in our Accelerated Reading program. Pictured is the principal of Sharp Creek with first-grade students form Mrs. Vanlandingham’s class. These students were on hand for morning announcements to let the student body know that they exceeded their goal and were sending the donation to the National Wildlife Federation to help restore wildlife in the gulf oil spill area.

come and spend time in the evenings and on the weekends; and for quite some time we have wanted to be able to have our doors open for more hours each week in order to meet that need, but we just didn’t know how it could happen. After all there are so many unseen details to work out for each hour we are open, details unseen to most but not to God. The Bible says in Proverbs 16:3 “Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed.”-and that is what we are seeing. We are expanding our open hours starting this summer, and although it is a small step toward our ultimate goal it is exciting to be moving forward. What about you? Are there detailsmaybe unseen to others that need to come together for your plans to succeed? This week read Proverbs 16:3 for yourself and watch what God can do.

Recently, the Indiana State Police Department held an awards and recognition ceremony in Indianapolis. The ceremony honored and recognized individuals from around the state for their dedication to service, bravery and devotion to the department and citizens of the Indiana. Those individuals chosen were employees of the Indiana State Police Department and other public safety agen-
cies. The idea for this event was conceived by Indiana State P o l i c e Superintendent Paul Whitesell, Ph.D. Superintendent Whitesell felt the need to publicly recognize the achievements and deeds of self sacrifice and accomplishment that all too often go without the proper recognition. Trooper Adam Duffitt, who works from the Indiana State Police Peru
Post, was recognized as the 2010 Trooper of the District for dedication to his job, traffic and criminal enforcement, community involvement, instructor ratings, specialty assignments, and other services performed for the department beyond normal expectations. He was selected by the command staff at the Peru District. Trooper Josh Tarrh, also assigned to the Indiana State Police Peru District,
received the Indiana State Police Life Award for his commitment to removing impaired drivers from Indiana roadways. In 2010, he led the Peru District with 67 impaired driving arrests. Tarrh also led the district in impaired driving arrests in 2008 and 2009, with a total of 114 impaired drivers arrested. “The quality of work performed by these troopers is second to none,” stated
Lieutenant Matt Bilkey, commander of the Indiana State Police Peru Post. “Their commitment to keeping the citizens and visitors of Indiana safe is deserving of the recognition bestowed upon them.” Tarrh is an eightyear veteran who patrols primarily in Howard County. Duffit is a four-year veteran who patrols primarily in Tipton County.

Considering a New Lower?
A new lower may NOT be the answer to your problems! Due to the bone loss which occurs once teeth are removed, it is often difficult to be satisfied with a lower denture.

Sports Shorts Marion announces plans for new 5,200-seat sports facility
KOLTON FLOOR, 6, got this jake with a crossbow during the last week of turkey season in Miami County. This was his first year turkey hunting. Kolton is the son of Shannon and Amy Floor, Roann. (photo provided)
THE CITY OF MARION recently unveiled plans to construct a new all-purpose sports facility at the northwest quadrant of Interstate 69 and State Route 18, Marion. The two-story, 102,000 sq. ft., building will host a USHL Hockey team beginning with the 2012-2013 season. (photo provided) The Marion Sports Authority Inc., a private 501(C)4 non-profit corporation; the City of Marion E c o n o m i c D e v e l o p m e n t Commission; and the Marion City Council u n a n i m o u s l y approved up to $30 million in bond-ability to begin construction on a new, freestanding, multi-purpose sports and entertainment center designed to meet the needs of the City of Marion and East Central Indiana communities. The anticipated anchor tenant of the facility is a United States Hockey League member club franchise that will be owned and operated by Chicago-based Game 7 Seven, LLC. Game 7 Seven Principle Partner Val Belmonte explained, “Beyond managing the anchor tenant, we have the obligation and responsibility for all day-to-day operations and functions of the facility. We will provide a wide range
of activities and cultural events focusing on affordable, wholesome, family entertainment that provide a dynamic impact on the economy and social aspects of Marion and the surrounding region.” Unique to many sport and entertainment centers in Indiana and across the U.S., the facility is not being supported by City of Marion tax dollars. Mayor Wayne Seybold explained “the Non-Profit Marion Sports Authority’s involvement is critical, they are serving as building owner, landlord providing Game 7 Seven an avenue to offer these bonds at a tax-exempt status.” Construction is targeted to begin this summer on the projected 5,200-maximum capacity arena – with the venue ready for opening to start the 2012-2013 USHL Hockey season. Sports Authority President and long time voice of Grant
County Sports Jim Brunner said, “We’re thrilled about the plans for a new sports and entertainment center in Marion, particularly based on the history of rich sports tradition in our community. “In addition to providing a first-class venue, it will be the home for the hockey team, as well as other events such as high school sports events, college sports events, non-tenant sports events, concerts, family shows and consumer shows providing affordable, wholesome, family entertainment that establishes a regional anchor and magnet for the City of Marion and the East Central Indiana corridor.” The proposed project site is situated at the northwest quadrant of I-69 and State Route 18, in Marion. The center will encompass approximately 102,000 sq. ft. building footprint, two stories in height on a 12-acre site, high-
ly visible from I-69 and easily accessible from State Route 18. The State of Indiana IEDC and INDOT have proved fruitful for accommodating the increased traffic flow that this facility will be bringing to the site. The building’s main arena shall have an estimate max occupancy capacity of 5,000 for concerts, basketball games and other events while the main arena will also accommodate a hockey rink configuration with an estimated max occupancy of 4,100. Attached to the main arena will be an annex section housing a secondary ice rink with dry floor configuration capabilities with planned usage for youth hockey, figure skating, precision skating, broomball, curling, additional consumer show floor space and a variety of other recreational uses.

Chain soars into record books
by Aaron Turner Southwood’s senior Larry Chain soared into the record books of the Marion track sectional. Chain broke the 62-year-old record in the long jump with a bound of 23’5”. And for good measure, Chain won the high jump as well, clearing 6’2” for the winning leap. Northfield’s Matt Galley also came away with two first-place finishes at the Plymouth sectional. Galley paced the field in the 800-meter run, posting a time of :59.2 and added a win in the 1600, crossing the line in 4:33.83. Manchester’s Keegan McNeeley took top honors in the 100, besting the field with a time of 11.21. He also took second in the 200, posting a time of 23.23. Northfield’s Caleb Augustus was the only other county participant to win a sectional title, claiming the 3200 with a time of 10:06.16. Others advancing to regionals include Northfield’s Trent Meyer in the 800 and the 1600 relay team of Johnny Barlow, Galley, Seth Frye and Meyer. From Manchester, Trae Bruce advanced in both hurdles events. Aric Howard also advanced in the discus, as did the 3200 relay team of Andrew Bolinger, David Francis, Tristin Burnette and Clayton Grizzle. Southwood’s Chandler Sonafrank and Mike Dice advanced in the 1600 and 110 hurdles, respectively, as did the 3200 relay team of Michael Boman, Grant Keaffaber, Sonafrank and Johnny Mendez. From Wabash, the 400-meter relay team of Chris Reid, Jesse Hamm, Ryan Davenport and Brandon Hunt earned a berth into the regional with a time of 45.19. Wabash and Southwood will head to the Fort Wayne regional while Northfield and Manchester travel to the Kokomo regional. Both start at 5 p.m. on May 26.

LAKETON HISTORY: In 1874 the Laketon Covered Bridge was built. This helped people get from South Laketon (Ijamsville) to Laketon. In the early days some
horses would get frightened going across the bridge, Later when cars were first new they had trouble getting up the bank to go across the bridge. There were several accidents but even with all the trouble with the bridge it was a sad day in 1956 when the bridge was taken down. Some of the town people tried to save the bridge but county officials would not let it stand. If you look at the pictures you’ll see how the bridge leaned. (probably not too safe by today’s standards) A local poet, Jesse Sickafus, wrote the following poem to try to save the landmark: The Laketon Covered Bridge What, stranger, tear that old bridge out? Why not just let her stand? You can’t use her parts in the new one

and you surely don’t need the land. That old bridge stood there 80 years, I remember well with joy, How I crossed that span from Laketon, when I was but a boy. My father crossed before me, My friends from miles around, Now, stranger, please don’t joke like that, Don’t tear that old bridge down. What harm has ever come from her? Why sentence her to go. She’s always been faithful, and so stranger we love her so. She sidles a bit to the eastward, And her roof by the wind is torn, But the structure is solid, within friend, she’s just weather-worn A coat of paint could fix her up, A few nails here and there,

A little work from her many friends, I‘d gladly do my share. Now stranger, we could fix her up, The way she used to be, This bridge means a lot to me. Yes stranger, we could straighten her up, And give her a coat of paint, What is that? You think I‘m foolish? Sir, that old bridge is a Saint. Before you wield your mighty axe, To tear this old bridge down, Friend wait, take a walk with me. Lets talk to the folks in town. Let’s talk to her friends, both near and far, All the children the women and men, And see if we can’t raise adequate funds, to put her in shape again And after we‘ve tried, if we can‘t do this, Please stranger,
forgive the frown, I‘ll step aside, let you take your axe, And tear that old bridge down. JUST A REMINDER: the Memorial Day Services will be held at Laketon Cemetery on May 29 at 1 p.m. followed by dinner at Laketon Legion. The public is welcome.

The family of
Michael Douglas would like to thank everyone who has sent a card with words of encouragement or telling me just how Mike had touched their hearts with his desire to work for the Lord, sent flowers, or gave money to help with funeral expenses. To those who gave a hug or lent a shoulder to cry on, those who brought food or just were there to listen or maybe just said a prayer for us that day. We were so blessed to see almost 800 people coming out to share in the Celebration of his life. Just to see how many lives he touched blessed our hearts. His joy for the Lord was contagious. If you were down in the dumps that day and he came around you just couldn’t stay there! He was quick to speak a “word in Season” to encourage you if you were having a tough time. He had a gift to speak a refreshing Word from the scripture to those who were hurting, or down in spirit, discouraged or in need. So many lives he touched with the Love of Christ. His genuine personality was one of a kind. It was a privilege and Blessing to have been his wife for 38 years. He will be greatly missed by all our Friends, our Children, our Son-in-Laws, our (7) Grandchildren and especially me. We will miss his contagious laugh and smile, his strong hands and his Awesome Booming Tenor voice! I know he closed his eyes for the last time on September 4th and woke up in heaven to hear the Lord say, “Well done, thy good and Faithful Servant.” As he used to say, “Now That’s What I’m Talking About!” Someday we will see him again. What a Great Reunion that will be! He truly is now “Singing with the Saints!” Love and miss you honey, See You Soon!!

The festival schedule is almost completed, just waiting on a few confirmations. A reminder that the parade theme this year will be, Salute to the Farmers. What a great tribute to our little farming community, thanks to Ann Meyer and Valerie Doud, as co-chairwomen of the parade, for their choice. One of the new attractions we think you will enjoy this year will be strolling through our
festival on Saturday. He goes by the name f o joyUNSPEAKABLE as he portrays a living statue. We will also have the trio, Trouble & Company, singing songs from the 60’s, 70’s 80’s after the parade 4-6 p.m. We are also excited to have the country band Jericho (formally Shilo) as entertainment on Saturday night. We will have the Thursday night favorite, Spike & the Bulldogs. Friday, God’s Country and Small Town both are back, as requested. Our Friday night cruise-in of those classy cars and trucks will be held. The pull field will be filled with activities, Thursday night’s tractor show and rodeo; Friday, super tractor pull and lawn mower races. We are calling Sunday our “family activities” day, with the children’s bicycle rodeo, kiddie tractor pull, volleyball, co-ed 3 on 3 basketball tourney, horse shoe contest (new this year) and corn hole. Of course we are still working on the list. We are considering a “Pig Kissing Contest”. Do you have a favorite friend that you would like to nominate to possibly be the winner? The committee feels that
the festival is going very well and things are coming together to make another great Roann Covered Bridge Festival, Sept. 8-11.

The family of
Michael Douglas would like to thank everyone who has sent a card with words of encouragement or telling me just how Mike had touched their hearts with his desire to work for the Lord, sent flowers, or gave money to help with funeral expenses. To those who gave a hug or lent a shoulder to cry on, those who brought food or just were there to listen or maybe just said a prayer for us that day. We were so blessed to see almost 800 people coming out to share in the Celebration of his life. Just to see how many lives he touched blessed our hearts. His joy for the Lord was contagious. If you were down in the dumps that day and he came around you just couldn’t stay there! He was quick to speak a “word in Season” to encourage you if you were having a tough time. He had a gift to speak a refreshing Word from the scripture to those who were hurting, or down in spirit, discouraged or in need. So many lives he touched with the Love of Christ. His genuine personality was one of a kind. It was a privilege and Blessing to have been his wife for 38 years. He will be greatly missed by all our Friends, our Children, our Son-in-Laws, our (7) Grandchildren and especially me. We will miss his contagious laugh and smile, his strong hands and his Awesome Booming Tenor voice! I know he closed his eyes for the last time on September 4th and woke up in heaven to hear the Lord say, “Well done, thy good and Faithful Servant.” As he used to say, “Now That’s What I’m Talking About!” Someday we will see him again. What a Great Reunion that will be! He truly is now “Singing with the Saints!” Love and miss you honey, See You Soon!!

Sigma Phi Gamma celebrates mother/daughter/guest night Nu Chapter of Sigma Phi Gamma Sorority celebrated their annual Mother/Daughter/G uest night with a meal catered by Heather Chenault at the Falls Cemetery on May Chapel 9. Bob Mattern, vicepresident of the Falls Cemetery Board and the husband of Mother’s Day Committee Chairman Barbara Mattern, gave the program telling about the Chapel after the meal. Bob opened by telling a little about the history of Falls Cemetery saying the cemetery was started in 1862. When the city of Wabash was first started there was a cemetery on Hill Street where Hanna Park is now located. All of the graves were moved, many to Falls Cemetery, as well as other cemeteries. At the present time there are 12,000 graves in Falls Cemetery with enough space for burials for the next 100 years. Falls Cemetery is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 entity that is governed by a board of directors. Falls Cemetery secretary is Joan Shripka and the sexton is Brad Wagner. Both Joan and Brad have their offices in the new Falls Chapel along with a large meeting room, a smaller room, restrooms, a full kitchen and storage space. Construction on the Chapel began in May 2009, was completed in November 2009, and opened for used in January 2010. Besides being available for group meetings, the 2,500 square foot Chapel can be used for interment services during inclement weather. A restored organ donated by Richard Ford is available for services. There are 16 parking spaces. For details about renting the Chapel, call Joan Shripka on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday at 260563-2605. Bob concluded his presentation by
announcing that Falls Cemetery’s next “History Relived” presentation will be on Sept. 24 and will highlight some of the many Civil War veterans that are buried in Falls Cemetery. Thanks to the
Mother’s Day Committee, Barbara Mattern, Bonnie Corn, Linda Gabel, Lori Overmyer, Danielle Miller and Renee Chenault, for planning the evening and to Bob Mattern for helping serve the meal before he

Chaplain Miriam Harter Carnahan, Lagrange County. She reported that earlier this month Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates told an audience of West Point cadets that it would be unwise for the United States to ever fight another war like Iraq or Afghanistan, and that the chances of carrying out a change of government in that fashion again were slim. That reality, he said, meant that the Army would have to reshape its budget, since potential conflicts in places like Asia or the Persian Gulf were more likely to be fought with air and sea power, rather than with conventional ground forces. Joyce Joy read the President General’s message from Merry Ann Thompson Wright. This spring our President General traveled the center part of the country, from the coasts of the Gulf of Mexico to states bordering of Canada. She said while the temperatures
and the landscapes were very different, the members of the DAR are the same everywhere – warm, welcoming and energized by their work to promote historic preservation, education and patriotism. Regent Jean Wright asked the officers from this year to remain in office for next year and all agreed to continue to serve. Certificates of membership in DAR were presented to the following women: Frances Elizabeth Lowell Kip, 68 years; Marguerite Troyer Guenin, 65 years; Gladys Myers Hall, 65 years; Avonne Lee Reed Knecht, 56 years; Marjorie M. Rosenthal Stoffer, 56 years; Dora Marie Russell Denniston, 38 years; Johannah Clark Kunkler Kaufman, 38 years; Joyce Amanda Middleton Joy, 37 years; Jean Guenin Wright, 31 years, Crystal Hostetler Huitema, 30 years; and Mildred Yarnelle Paullus, 27 years. Regent
Wright thanked those present for all of their years of service. Certificates were mailed to those not able to attend. Harter Miriam Carnahan, State Chaplain, gave the program entitled “Daughters: Who We Are and What We Do”. She told the members that on Oct. 11, 1890, 18 women met to officially organize the National Society Daughters of American the Revolution with historic, educational and p a t r i o t i c objectives. Mrs. Benjamin Harrison, the First Lady, became the first president of the DAR. In 1896 the Society was incorporated by an Act of Congress. The Society is now in its second century of service to the nation. Over 850,000 women have become members since then, with current membership near 170,000 in 3,000 chapters in all 50 states and 11 countries. The annual con-

vention is named after the original Continental Congress and attracts over 4,000 members to Washington DC each summer. Chapters stay busy marking historical buildings, places, events n d a graves. Genealogical records, local and state histories are in the DAR Library containing over 10,000 books, periodicals and unpublished transcripts. It is used regularly by people from all the over world. Daughters have adopted the U.S. Military Hospital at Landsthul, Germany, and provide letters, cards and comfort items along with phone cards to service men and women recovering from battlefield wounds. Chapters around the state support their closest VA hospitals and treatment centers by volunteering hours and donating comfort items and handmade lap robes. In our Historic Preservation objective, DAR had placed numerous historical markers to commemorate historical sites and events. One of these is The Madonna of the Trail monuments, which follow the National Road going west, sea to sea. Indiana is fortunate to have one of these in our backyard, near Richmond. Mrs. Carnahan told members there are 10 DAR schools in eight states, either owned or supported by the Society. She gave many other examples of what we do as a Society and members were encouraged to help the chapter grow by finding new members. The next meeting will be held on May 10 at 7 p.m. in the Blocher Room at the North Manchester Public Library. Guests are always welcome. More information can be obtained at www.dar.org by clicking on “Membership” or by calling 765-981-2612 or 260-563-4661.
