Windstream files for Chapter 11 after legal loss Windstream Holdings Inc., a rural telecommunications company which serves Gallatin and many other area towns, filed for bankruptcy protection on Feb. 25. The bankruptcy announcement came days after the rural telecom service provider lost a legal battle against Aurelius Capital Management over a spinoff of its network assets into a real estate investment trust. Aurelius, a Windstream bond holder, accused the company of violating its bond
covenant when it spun off its copper wire and fiber cable business into a new company in 2015. A U.S. district court on Feb. 15 agreed, and ruled in Aurelius’ favor. Judge Jesse Furman of the Federal District Court in Manhattan ruled that Windstream had violated bond covenants when it spun off its fiber-optic cable business into a new company called Uniti Group. According to Ars Technica and several
other sources, Windstream was hit with a $310 million judgment in a legal loss to the capital management firm. The bankruptcy filing will allow the company to continue to operate while reorganizing its finances. “The Board of Directors and management team determined that filing for voluntary Chapter 11 protection is a necessary step to address the financial impact of (the) decision,” Chief Executive Officer

Brice Terry at Louisville, KY
Hy-Strung wins 2nd at national tractor pull Hy-Strung Motorsports of Gallatin took second at the 2019 Championship Tractor Pull at the National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville, KY, on Feb. 16, culminating the best season that they have had since they began competing. The Louisville event, according to Brice Terry, is possibly the most prestigious indoor pull in the nation. “If you ever win at Louisville, you’ve really done something,” Brice says. There were five sessions
at the show, each with several classes, and each class had 12 tractors competing. Contestants are chosen by a committee after making application to the show. Brice and the Hy-Strung crew competed on weekends throughout the summer. Hy-Strung won the Pro Pulling League (PPL) Western Series Championship for the season, which was from May through September. Out of six PPL events, HyStrung earned two first place finishes, two seconds, one third,
and was disqualified once for running out of bounds. They also won the National Champions Tour at Wheatland, MO, on Sept. 14, and competed in the Outlaw Pulling Association, winning pulls at Macon, MO, the Missouri State Fair, and both nights at Wisner, NE. Out of the 12 pulls they attended this past summer, they took first place at seven events. Hy-Strung is in the 6400-lb. lightweight super stock class.
Tony Thomas was quoted as saying. The company listed assets in the range of $10 billion to $50 billion and liabilities in the range of $10 billion to $50 billion. With the approval of the bankruptcy court, Windstream plans to continue paying employees and maintaining services and vendor relationships. Citigroup (C) has committed $1 billion in debtor-inpossession financing to help the company continue operating.
Polo man arrested at Lake Viking Security Office for promoting child pornography Jay C. Guhlke, 33, Polo, was arrested Feb. 22 for promoting and possession of child pornography, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Division of Drug and Crime Control. The arrest was the result of an investigation conducted by members of the Division of Drug and Crime Control’s Digital Forensics Investigative Unit. The Patrol was assisted by the Caldwell County Sheriff ’s Office and the Daviess County Sheriff ’s Office. According to the probable cause statement filed by the Highway Patrol, the HP investigator downloaded a pornographic video file from an IP address which was registered to MidStates Service of Grundy County. Mid-States responded to a court-ordered subpoena indicating the IP address was being used at the account of the Lake Viking Security Office in Daviess County. The investigator downloaded the same video file from a device at an IP address being used at the home of Guhlke in Polo. On Feb. 22, investigators executed a search warrant at Guhlke’s residence located on South Highway 13 in Polo. As a result of their search, investigators seized child pornography and computer equipment. While the search was being executed at Guhlke’s residence, additional officers located Guhlke at his place of employment, the Lake Viking Security Office. Investigators executed a second search warrant on electronic equipment, which was on his per-
son. As a result of their search, additional child pornography and computer equipment were seized. Guhlke was arrested and transported to the DaviessDeKalb Regional Jail. During a post-Miranda interview, Guhlke admitted he uses BitTorrent software to download files showing child pornography. He admitted to having sexual contact with at least three children while he was an adult. He admitted that in the past seven years at his home near Polo he had sexual contact with a female child around age 10, and he recorded himself making the sexual contact. The Daviess County Prosecuting Attorney formally charged Guhlke with promoting child pornography and two counts of possession of child pornography. His bond has been set at $100,000. The Division of Drug and Crime Control encourages Internet users to report promptly to the Patrol or local law enforcement anyone who attempts to engage in unwanted, inappropriate, or sexualized communications with children. The Digital Forensics Investigative Unit is partially funded by the Missouri Department of Public Safety State Cyber Crime Grant and the Missouri Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force. The above charges are mere accusations and are not evidence of guilt. Evidence in support of these charges must be presented before a court of competent jurisdiction whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.
New development in pharmacy situation After the recent announcement of two new pharmacies planning to open in Gallatin, one of the parties, Dungy’s Market, has now announced that they will not pursue the location of a pharmacy in their grocery store. According to Jeremy and Rikki Dungy, they decided to withdraw from the quest for a pharmacy in their store after they learned that Mackenzie Morrison, who had been employed at the Shopko pharmacy in Gallatin for 10 years, was planning to open

DAR Chapters launch ‘Project Video’ to record area veteran stories Missouri State Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), including the Gallatin Chapter, presented the Cameron Veterans Home with a video camera, microphone, stand, and cart for storage on Feb. 25 during a ceremony held in the chapel. The goal of the “Video Project” is to record history and preserve and highlight each veteran’s efforts to fight for our country and for peace. State Vice-Regent Joan Magee, representing the DAR, noted that the video project focused on the DAR state theme — to seek to serve what matters most in historic preservation, education, and patriotism. Sue Wagner, St. Joseph Chapter Regent, presented the program. She recognized Jerry Steele of Cameron,
a veteran and a retired school history teacher. Mr. Steele was responsible for planting the seed for the Video Project. He’d heard a lot of veteran stories, plus he had a few stories of his own. He witnessed many of our World War II veterans passing at an alarming rate, without their stories being recorded. Mr. Steele felt there was a need to record the stories on video and house them in the library at the Cameron Veterans Home. The stories could be shared with veterans’ families, area students, visitors, scholars, and all interested audiences. The stories could be viewed and personal copies could be made. Mr. Steele shared his idea to record the stories with
Barbara Caldwell, the Volunteer Coordinator at the Cameron VA. After Mrs. Wagner became regent at DAR, she reached out to Brad Haggard, Assistant Director, Homes Program, with the Missouri Veterans Commission. She asked what the DAR could do to benefit the veterans. He put her in touch with Mrs. Caldwell, who told her about the Video Project. Sandra Dozier, St. Joseph Chapter, researched video equipment. At the Northwest District DAR meeting last September, an invitation was issued to other chapters. Seven other chapters quickly joined with their support. (continued on page 3)

OPINION
Feb. 27, 2019
Tracking chickens Why did the chicken cross the road? It’s no longer a joke line. There are big bucks being spent nowadays trying to answer that question. Ag producers know that today’s shoppers are willing to pay a premium for meats that are cage-free, organic or wild caught. But how do you really know if the chicken you are eating spent its life happily pecking for corn or if your blackberries were grown locally and are pesticide free? Put a tracking device on it. No kidding. A GPS tracker strapped to the leg of a chicken has the potential of allowing the consumer to know every step that a chicken has taken before it enters the packing plant. ZhongAn Online, a Chinese insurance company, has already outfitted more than 100,000 chickens with trackers. The sensors upload information, such as how much exercise each chicken gets and what it ate. The company says this technology will be on 2,500 farms in China by next O the E itor s S ike year. What’s more, they are also working on facial-recognition technology so that consumers can one day make sure the organic chicken they saw on the farm is the same one that ends up on their plate. I suppose this is progress. But ask by Darryl Wilkinson yourself, do I really want a personal relationship with something I’m about to eat? Foghorn Leghorn, the cartoon character of Looney Tunes fame, comes to mind. The tall, overweight rooster with a Southern accent starred in 29 cartoon features from 1946 to 1964 – decades before GPS tracking was even a possibility. But I can’t help wondering what Foghorn would say about his harem of hens strapped with trackers. In Portlandia’s pilot television episode, two diners question their server about the organic bona fides of the chicken. To reassure them that their entrée was not only healthy but happy, their server provides them with the chicken’s bio and photo! History reveals unusual relationships between mankind and his chickens. Chickens accompanied Roman legions. Their behavior was carefully observed before battle; a good appetite meant victory was likely. According to the writings of Cicero, when one contingent of birds refused to eat before a sea battle in 249 B.C., an angry consul threw them overboard. History records that he was defeated. Artistic depictions of rooster combatants are scattered throughout the ancient world, such as in a first century A.D. mosaic adorning a house in Pompeii. The ancient Greek city of Pergamum established a cockfighting amphitheater to teach valor to future generations of soldiers. According to legend dating back to fifth century B.C., the Athenian general Themistocles, while on his way to confront the invading Persian forces, stopped to watch two cocks fighting by the side of a road in Greece. He summoned his troops, saying: “Behold, these do not fight for their household gods, for the monuments of their ancestors, for glory, for liberty or the safety of their children but only because one will not give way to the other.” This tale does not describe what happened to the loser, nor explain why the soldiers found this display of instinctive aggression inspirational rather than pointless and depressing. But history records that the Greeks, thus heartened, went on to repel the invaders, preserving the civilization that today honors these same creatures by breading, frying and dipping them into favorite sauces. The fact is that the male of the species can be quite a fierce animal, especially when bred and trained for fighting. Nature armed the rooster with a bony leg spur; humans supplemented that feature with an arsenal of metal spurs and small knives strapped to the bird’s leg. Cockfighting is illegal in the United States — Louisiana was the last state to ban it, in 2008 — and generally viewed by Americans as inhumane. But in the parts of the world where it is still practiced, legally or illegally, it claims to being the world’s oldest continual sport. Oddly enough, in contemporary language the use of “chicken” is usually associated with cowardice (“The sky is falling, the sky is falling!”) or neurotic anxiety (“Running around like a chicken without a head”). But that hasn’t kept the University of South Carolina from choosing a Gamecock as its sporting mascot (the choice is actually founded in honor of Thomas Sumter, a Revolutionary War hero from South Carolina; he was nicknamed the “Carolina Gamecock” after a British general said Sumter “fought like a gamecock”). Maybe this rambling collection of thought doesn’t come to mind whenever you think about chickens. Perhaps your only personal contact with chickens is in choosing white or brown eggs in the cartons at the grocery store. I suspect there’s a whole generation of young mothers out there who’ve yet to serve fried chicken if you discount the likes of Kentucky Fried Chicken or Popeye’s or other food franchises and stores. We don’t think very much on chickens, do we? But each Easter that changes, if only in choosing to eat those yellow marshmallow chicks among the colored eggs. As for me, I can’t help remembering all the chickens my grandparents raised for eggs and meat: chick delivery meant thousands of peeping critters scurrying beneath heating lamps, egg gathering chores, chickens literally running around with their heads cut off, and all the foul smells you actually forget due to that mouth-watering aroma once a chicken sizzles in a frying pan. Sometimes I feel fortunate to live in memories of times past. I don’t have to think about GPS tracking devices or confronting decisions on what chicken I want to eat based on digital knowledge. Maybe this is progress. But if we’ve become that distrustful about our food chain, it makes me want to scream, “The sky is falling, the sky is falling!”
Keep public notices public Again this year, bills in the Missouri Legislature would effectively hide public notices from the public. Public notices, also called legal notices, are required by law to be published in newspapers. The idea always has been to provide transparency in government, and the practice long has been required under state law. The notices inform Missourians about advertisements for bids, contracts, unclaimed property, school/government finances, court proceedings, foreclosures and assessments, among other things.
House Bill 686, sponsored by Rep. Nick Schroer, R-O’Fallon, would drop the requirement for property foreclosure notices to be printed in newspapers, and allow them instead be posted on the foreclosure trustee’s website. But here’s the problem: Most people would never see those websites. There are hundreds — possibly thousands — of trustees doing business in Missouri. So it would be incredibly difficult for people to track down upcoming foreclosure auctions on all those obscure websites. Plus, not everyone has a computer or inter-
The economic outlook b y St at e Sen . D an H egem an
Through the end of Feb. 20, Missouri’s year-to-date net general revenue collection is down by 5.35% — about $310 million less than during the same timeframe in the previous fiscal year. However, about one month ago state general revenue collection was down by 10.1% — about $536 million less than during the same timeframe in the previous fiscal year. Though we are still down from last year, revenues are clearly beginning to move in the right direction. That’s certainly encouraging. Further, I believe there’s strong evidence we’ll see this trend continue in the coming months. It’s important to keep in mind that the average Missourian’s overall income tax bill is lower for 2018 than it was for 2017. Recent tax cuts at the federal and state level are coming through to the benefit of many Missouri taxpayers. In the third quarter of 2018, Missouri’s average personal income increased by 2.1% at an annual rate, according to estimates released by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis. That’s also really encouraging, both because it bodes well for future revenue growth in the state budget and because it means the economy is continuing to expand. Average Missourians are benefiting from our state’s
strong economic position. Historically, Missouri is usually one of the last states to be affected by a nationwide economic downturn. That’s partly due to our diverse economy. No single industry dominates Missouri’s private sector, which helps insulate our state from the worst effects of a commercial slump. I think we have plenty of reasons to be optimistic about the future of Missouri’s economic environment.
net access. If a foreclosed property is being sold on the courthouse steps, for instance, only the select people who can find the public notice for the sale will be able to bid. The few bidders who do know about the sale, then, would have an advantage — perhaps an opportunity to buy properties for far less than their value. Just to be clear, this newspaper does have a dog in the fight. Trustees would benefit by saving the cost of paying newspapers to print the notices. Newspapers, on the other hand, would lose that revenue. Newspapers remain the best avenue to inform the public about public notices. Newspapers still are read by the majority of the public, and they expect to find public notices in their paper. A hearing for HB686 by the House General Laws Committee was held Feb. 20, and a similar bill has been introduced in the Senate. If you, like us, believe that public notices should be open to the public, not hidden on obscure websites, we encourage you to attend the hearing and speak out or contact your elected state officials to let them know how you feel. -- Jefferson City News Tribune

Wayne Teel remembers the Battle of the Bulge by T.L. Huffman
Wayne Teel is 94 years old now and doesn’t remember a lot of details about the Battle of the Bulge. He remembers being in a heavy forest. He remembers being cold. He remembers the Germans “shelling the hell out of us.” But the thing he remembers most clearly is the day his brother showed up out of nowhere. His older brother, J.D., was also in the Army, but in a different unit. He was a truck driver. On that day, he was transporting a load of prisoners. “He just happened by,” says Wayne. “He stayed that night and we talked all night. He was the only guy I saw that I knew in the service.” The makings of a soldier Wayne was born in 1924 in Daviess County, west of Jameson. Later the family moved to the Mussleman place south and a little east of Jameson. Wayne’s parents were Jim and Eva Teel; he had a sister, Lois (Teel) Wilson. Wayne went to several country schools, including Roasting Ear. At his last country school, there were only three students enrolled — him, his brother J.D., and Dean McDonald. Wayne started in seventh grade at Jameson. Wayne and J.D. and a friend, Junior Worley, went to school together and rode there in horse-drawn school wagons. One was driven by Jake Gray and another was driven by Joe Wilmont. They had fun at school, but more fun out of school, hunting, fishing, and occasionally stirring up trouble. All of the boys drove cars and trucks by the time they were 11 or 12 years old. The faster they could go, the better. Sometimes they were even scared of riding with each other. When they were in high school, these three boys went to the Courter Theater in Gallatin on Saturday nights. Most of the movies were Westerns. If they could get to town on Tuesday night, the show cost 10 cents. Of course, they also chased the girls in town. Their car was a 1933 Ford with doors that opened back rather than forward. They were called ‘suicide doors’ because sometimes they’d come flying open. The Teel boys and Junior always went to the Jameson Picnic, where they had great fun on the rides and in all the games. One time when they were in high school, they skipped out, going to Grandpa Teel’s old place
west of Jameson. Wayne got his dad’s Model A Ford truck started and then drove to Gallatin. At Venable’s store on the east side of the square, they bought bologna, bread, and pork ‘n beans. Junior Worley told the clerk that his dad was coming down the street and would pay the bill. In fact, his father, Hartford Worley, wasn’t in town at all. Returning to school in a day or two, they received a good whipping and vowed to reform. Three boys drafted Wayne, J.D., and Junior were all drafted into the Army. All three served in the Battle of the Bulge, but other than just that one time, Wayne did not see his brother during the war, and he didn’t see Junior at all. Wayne was drafted at 19 years old. He took his basic training at Fort Benning, GA. He served
forces in a manner that would turn the tide of the war in Hitler’s favor. The battle that ensued is known historically as the Battle of the Bulge. The Germans struck in the Ardennes Forest, a 75-mile stretch of the front characterized by dense woods and few roads, held by four inexperienced and battle-worn American divisions stationed there for rest and seasoning. Wayne was a tank crew member in one of those divisions. One of the tanks in his unit had hit a tree in the forest. “The Germans could see that tank,” he says. “They zeroed in on us. Shrapnel came down like hail.” Wayne says he was outside his tank when the shelling started … “but it didn’t take me long to get back in it.” Often isolated and unaware

An admiring British Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill stated, “This is undoubtedly the greatest American battle of the war and will, I believe, be regarded as an ever-famous American victory.” In terms of participation and losses, the Battle of the Bulge is arguably the greatest battle in American military history.
The Battle Begins In late 1944, during the wake of the Allied forces’ successful D-Day invasion of Normandy, France, it seemed as if the Second World War was all but over. On Dec. 16, with the onset of winter, the German army launched a counteroffensive that was intended to cut through the Allied
of the overall picture, American soldiers did their part to slow the Nazi advance. Wayne isn’t sure how far back his unit went before it stopped and regrouped. American troops, often wading through deep snow drifts, attacked the sides of the shrinking bulge until they had restored the front and set the stage for the final drive to victory. Wayne and J.D. survived the war. “My feet got frostbit pretty bad once, other than that, I came out all right,” Wayne says. Their boyhood friend, Pvt. Hartford Worley, died Dec. 31, 1944. Hartford Worley is buried in the town of Margraten, the Netherlands. It came at a terrible cost in American lives, but never again would Hitler be able to launch an
Attending the presentation were Bradley Haggard, former administrator at the Cameron Veterans Home and now Assistant Director, Homes Program, who gave the welcome; Chaplain Mary Smith, St. Joseph Chapter, who gave the invocation; William Pollard, WWII veteran and resident, who gave the pledge; Joe Hegeman, District Field Representative for Congressman Sam
Graves; and Jerry Steele, veteran and retired history teacher. Mr. Pollard said the gift of a video camera by the DAR was for him “the finest day of all of them since World War II.” Mr. Pollard extended an invitation to the community to a March 18 morning event at the Cameron Veterans Home. Mr. Pollard, a combat medic who helped liberate the Dachau
Concentration Camp in World War II, says two sons of Gene Greenberg will be at the Veterans Home to talk about their family’s experiences in a concentration camp. Two other Greenberg sons were killed at the camp because they had no “use” to the Nazis. The Greenberg parents lived because they were both tailors and were forced to make uniforms for

His unit was part of the Third Army under General Patton. Wayne saw Patton one time. It was raining that day. “He was cussing and going on,” Wayne recalls. “He gave us a pep talk.”
Four bronze stars Wayne received four bronze stars during his time in the army. Wayne got the four bronze stars for serving in four campaigns: Rhineland, Ardennes, Central Europe and North France. Wayne got out in December of 1945 and started home. He was discharged in January of 1946.
Returning to civilian life After he got out of the army he worked in Gallatin. In 1959, he bought his own truck. He trucked since then, dump truck and lime truck. His brother J.D. worked in the print shop of the Gallatin newspaper with Joe Snyder. Wayne and his wife, Ruby, will be married 72 years on July 22. They were married on that day in 1947 at the Methodist parsonage in Gallatin. How have they managed to stay married so long? “We got used to each other, I guess,” says Wayne. Wayne and Ruby have nine children, Donald, Debby, Terry and Sandy, who are living, and Jimmy, Micky, Barbara, Ricky and Janet, who have passed on.

Master Gardener Classes just in time I strongly suspect that most people are like me…after the Polar Vortex, snow, and multiple ice storms, I am ready for spring. The promise of nice, warm, sunny spring days ahead really sounds good. I also look forward to teaching another year of Master Gardener classes. As MU Extension Horticulturists, we enjoy meeting and teaching other people who share our enthusiasm with growing plants. To become a Master Gardener, you don’t have to be an expert. All that is required is an interest in gardening, and a desire to serve your community using your gardening skills. B e f o r e Tim Baker someone is certified as a Master Gardener, they must undergo extensive training for 11 classes. Master Gardeners are taught about all aspects of gardening. Topics include plant growth, soils, diseases, insects, fruits, vegetables, flowers, trees, and many others. After they graduate, Master Gardeners are required to fulfill 30 hours of service to the community. That’s really not too difficult. Every month, Master Gardeners meet as a group at several locations, and come up with
volunteer projects to work on. Master Gardeners include adults of all ages and come from a wide variety of backgrounds. Some have extensive knowledge, and others come ready to learn. But they all have two traits in common: a love of gardening and a desire to help others. And Master Gardening is a lot of fun as well. Our monthly meetings are an enjoyable time to get together with fellow gardeners, and learn from each other. In late March and early April, University of Missouri Extension will be starting another series of training classes. We will be meeting on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, from 6 to 9 p.m., at several locations around Northwest Missouri. Right now, plans call for classes in St. Joseph, Plattsburg, and Albany. Master Gardeners receive a core manual of class topics from University of Missouri Extension. This will be included with your registration fee in electronic form on a USB flash drive. The cost for the training classes will be $110. If spouses attend together, the cost for the couple will be $195 if a second core manual is not required. The Grounds for Gardening notebook and the Core MG Manual will cost extra, if paper copies are desired. For more information about Master Gardening, and a registration form, please call Tim Baker in Gallatin at 660-663-3232, or Tom Fowler in St. Joseph at 816-279-1691. The deadline for registration is March 26.
A Kansas man was arrested less than an hour after he left the scene of an accident that injured two people from Gallatin at 6:30 p.m. Feb. 20 on I-35. According to the Highway Patrol, the crash occurred as Danny Engel, 44, Gallatin, and Edgar Jaime, 32, McPherson, KS, were both traveling northbound on I-35. About four miles north of Winston, Jaime’s 2011 Chevrolet Silverado struck the rear of Engel’s 2015 Ford Fusion. Engel’s Ford traveled off the east side of the road and came to rest on its wheels, facing east. Jaime’s Chevrolet left the scene and was later located. Mr. Engel and a passenger in his vehicle, Katherine Engel, 34, Gallatin, were both taken by Daviess County Ambulance to Cameron Regional Medical Center with minor injuries.

Stan Ray to retire from post office Stan Ray is retiring from the Gallatin Post Office after 31 years of service as a rural carrier. Stan started as a substitute carrier in February of 1983 and began full-time in 1990. His last day is Thursday, Feb. 28. Stan served under three postmasters, Clayton Grimes, Geneva Johnson, and now Carl Wiles. He has seen many changes. One of the first was going from wooden sorting cases to metal cases with movable separations. The metal cases are much more workerfriendly. Another big change was Delivery Point Sequence (DPS) mail, which meant the letters were pre-sorted. Today’s scanners can scan anything with a bar code, which has led to an increase in packages, which can also be attributed to increased usage on the internet. Stan says he plans to do things that he enjoys during his retirement, including traveling and spending time with his granddaughter, Ellie, who will be four next month. Stan and his wife Denise have three children. Whitney is married to Micah Sidebottom, and they are the parents of Ellie. Courtney Ray is a teacher at Gallatin. Micah Ray is employed at Act II popcorn plant in Hamburg, IA, where he also serves as a volunteer fireman with the Hamburg Fire Department.

Eagle Scouts to be recognized during ceremony March 2 at Gallatin LDS Two local Boy Scouts, Haven Gibson and McKay Marble of Gallatin, will be recognized for achieving the highest rank in scouting, that of Eagle Scout, in a special ceremony at 6 p.m. Saturday, March 2, at the Gallatin Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. A reception follows the ceremony which the public is invited to attend. They are both members of Boy Scout Troop 96, under the leadership of Scoutmaster Jason Lichfield.
H av en G ib s o n Haven Gibson, 15, son of John and Janece Gibson of Gallatin, achieved Eagle Scout on Dec. 15, 2018. At Saturday’s ceremonies, Haven will also receive his bronze, silver, and gold palms. Haven began his scouting adventure in 2011 with Cub Scout Pack 96 where he earned his Arrow of Light. Upon being awarded the Eagle Scout rank, Haven has successfully earned 37 merit badges, and served his troop as senior patrol leader and troop historian. He completed NYLT (National Youth Leadership Training) and will be a troop guide for NYLT this year for the second year in a row. He participated in the 50-miler in the Lake of the Ozarks and many outings. For his Eagle Scout service project, Haven built five bat houses that hold up to 300 bats each for the Lake of the Ozarks State Park. The park was having problems with disease and needed some new habitats for the bats to raise their young. As part of the process, he had to learn how to build one, gather all the supplies, put a team of volunteers together, teach them how to build the houses, and then deliver all five to the park. Haven is a freshman at Gallatin High School where he is a member of FFA, FBLA, and FCCLA. He is also currently a member of Green Hills Tae Kwon Do where he is a brown belt. After high school, Haven plans on serving a two-year service mission and is unsure of a career at this time. McKay Russell Marble, 18, son of David and Kristen Marble of Gallatin, achieved Eagle Scout on Dec. 16, 2018. He is a member of Boy Scout Troop 96, under the leadership of Scoutmaster Jason Lichfield. McKay began his scouting journey in the Texas Lone Star District in 2009 where he earned his World Conservation Award and Arrow of Light Award. After moving to Gallatin in 2013, McKay continued his scouting
adventures. He has successfully earned 21 merit badges, served in various positions of leadership including Varsity Captain, and completed NYLT (National Youth Leadership Training). Additionally, McKay has participated in a High Adventure canoeing down the Current River, and participated in many other scout activities and outings. For his Eagle Scout service project, McKay coordinated with the City of Gallatin to hammer metal plates to utility poles within the city. These plates are numbered and will allow city workers to efficiently track down problems during power outages. As a part of the planning process, McKay had to recruit volunteers, organize work routes throughout the city, collect and divide work materials, and supervise the efforts of youth and adults. With the help of over 35 volunteers, 600 poles were labeled in Gallatin. “It was a lot of work, but I learned how to be more organized through the process. I am glad we were able to help our community,” says McKay. McKay is a senior at Gallatin High School. He is a member of the Gallatin Marching Band, FBLA, FFA, Academic Team, and a manager for the football and wrestling teams. After high school, McKay plans on serving a two-year church mission, and then he plans to attend a fouryear university where he wants to major in biology.

Hot-shooting Redbirds carry the day in Class 1, D13 final
Get A Clue!
FBLA investigates with Gallatin sixth graders Gallatin FBLA Members, Annie Nelson, McKinley Waters, and Tristen Gibson, of the American Enterprise Team recently met with the Gallatin Middle School 6th grade class on careers. The FBLA CLUE Team, with the support and assistance of 6th grade teacher Mrs. Bond and Middle School Principal Mr. Collins, led a 6th grade first hour class in an investigation. The investigation for CLUE stood for: C – Career Information and Education, L- Long Term Goals and Values, U – Utilize Interests and Abilities, and E – Entering the Job Market. The FBLA American Enterprise Project is used to promote some facet of the American Enterprise system within the school and/or community. The American Enterprise Team, CLUE, sought information and education to promote the steps needed to secure a career. The first step is getting informed and educated. The team thought that knowing how to choose a career that met one’s goals and needs would lead individuals to success. Who better to start with, but those students getting ready to select classes for possible further education into a career? Basic
skills of knowing how to access these choices and take it to another level to enter the job market were all developed and covered in interactive learning activities. Through pretesting activities with the 6th graders, FBLA members constructed activities for the students to investigate their likes, interests, goals, values, and needs. The students also completed career assessments and investigated job pathways through activities. Sixth graders were encouraged to put on their thinking caps and discover interests, hobbies, and skills they possessed. The final steps of CLUE were to administer a post test on the definitions that were related to jobs and careers and fill out a real job application. Twenty-two students completed the successful steps to get a CLUE! Students were excited to have new career ideas in mind from the variety of activities. The American Enterprise Team, led by Gallatin FBLA Adviser Barbara Holcomb, will compete at the state leadership conference this April in Springfield.

There’s little wonder why the Wellington-Napoleon Tigers couldn’t score against Winston in the fourth quarter of the Class 1, District 13 title game on Friday. They just never had the ball enough because they were too busy sending the Redbirds to the foul line. The Redbirds shot 19 free throws in the fourth quarter, hitting 10 attempts, but that was just a part of the scoring equation as the defending district champions hung 28 points on the Tigers in the final 8 minutes on their way to a 78-46 runaway victory at Braymer High School. Leading the charge for the Redbirds, Jacob Lewis, who put on a shooting clinic while torching the Tigers for 43 points. The WHS senior hit 6 three-pointers and 13 of 18 tries from the free throw line over the course of 4 quarters. Winston Coach Eric Lewis switched to a little-used 1-2-2 zone late in the game in order to protect Cy Uthe and Jakub Hisel, who both finished the game
with 4 fouls. The zone scheme also helped on the defensive side by limiting Tiger all-state guard Trey Shannon to a season-low 12 points. Shannon mustered only 2 points in the opening quarter and did not post a bucket or free throw before fouling out in the fourth period. He topped the 2,000 point mark in his team’s semifinal win over Southwest. With their up-tempo style, the Redbirds wore out the Tigers, who were a combined 3-of-13 from the 3-point arc and could pull down only 7 offensive rebounds. Winston forced 17 turnovers, including 13 from the Tiger starting 5 players. Winston led, 29-23, at half but surged to the closing horn with a 49-23 scoring advantage in the second half. Uthe and Hisel finished with 14 and 10 points, respectively, for the Redbirds. Ross Nelson came off the bench to score 5 points in the second half. Tyler Turner chipped in 4 points and Marshall Farrell added 2 points in the fourth quarter.

GHS girls can’t match East Atchison at the free throw line It only took a moment but in that moment things fell apart for Gallatin’s girls, who were in the process of upsetting the top-seeded Lady Wolves of East Atchison in Thursday’s semifinal round of the Class 2, District 16 Basketball Tournament. Two things happened. East Atchison’s Morgan Parshall drove to the bucket from the wing, around what appeared to be an illegal screen (a similar screen was called illegal minutes earlier) that cut off Gallatin’s defender. Lady Bulldog se-
nior Kelsey Maxwell met her at the hoop, stood her ground but was whistled for a foul, her fifth. Parshall finished off the 3-point play with a free throw that sent the Lady Wolves on a 12-1 run that closed out a 63-50 victory. The Lady Wolves, who hit only 7 of 13 foul shots in the first half, dumped in 16 of 19 attempts in the fourth quarter to help seal their win in a game that was much closer than the final score indicated. The fact that the game stood knotted up at 26-26 at the half
was a testament to Gallatin’s defense and rebounding advantage. The Lady Wolves forced 12 turnovers in the first quarter with a stifling full-court press and 7 more in the second period, but the Lady Bulldogs stayed determined. Gallatin’s last shot of the first half, a 3-pointer by Karley Salmon, lifted her to the 1,000-point mark for her career and gave her team a 26-24 lead before East Atchison tied the score with a pair of free throws. East Atchison held a slim 44-42 lead at the midpoint of the
fourth quarter after Maxwell scored off the block on back-toback possessions, but the Lady Wolves would score all but 2 of their next 19 points from the charity stripe. Maxwell finished with 17 points and 11 rebounds in her final game as a Lady Bulldog. Salmon, who hit 4 of 11 treys, finished with a 16-point effort that boosted her career total to 1,013. Caragan Baker and Addison Burns added 8 and 7 points, respectively, for Gallatin.

Uthe’s 29 points power Redbirds to 56-37 win over rival Pattonsburg Like all teams that face the Winston Redbirds, the Pattonsburg Panthers didn’t have the option of picking their poison on Tuesday. Less than a week after senior Jacob Lewis torched Wellington-Napoleon for 43 points, senior Cy Uthe scored 29 from all over the floor to guide the Redbirds to a 56-37 victory in Tuesday’s Class 1 sectional at St. Joseph Civic Arena. The Redbirds, 26-0 and ranked #2 in Class 1, will face Jefferson, 25-4, in Friday’s Elite 8 round at 6 p.m. back at Civic Arena. Jefferson avenged a pair of losses to Mound City on
Tuesday, knocking off the #3 ranked team by a 61-45 margin. Mound City had won three previous meetings by a combined 7 points. Friday’s winner at the Civic will face either Wellsville, 13-13, or Linn County, 14-7, at 4:30 p.m., Friday, March 8, in Springfield. The Redbirds set the tempo early. Cy Uthe drained a 3-pointer from the wing and took an underhand feed from Jacob Lewis under the basket to stake Winston to an 11-5 lead with 3 minutes left in the first period. Lewis popped a trey with Panther defender Patrick Cowley in his face. Tyler Turner put

the Redbirds ahead, 16-5, with a bucket down low off a Jakub Hisel assist. The Panthers had failed to score for nearly 5 minutes but Trevor Ireland went coast-tocoast for a layup to break the pattern early in the second. A pair of field goals by Cameron Jones and buckets by Carter Crone and Dillon Turner helped the Panthers trim the deficit to 28-15 at the break. Uthe again made a statement coming out of the locker room for the second half, immediately nailing a trey and adding a 2-pointer that forced the Panthers to call a time out, trailing 33-15. A Trevor Ireland 3-pointer at the 5:49 mark broke a 2-minute scoring drought for the Panthers but the up tempo Redbirds would stretch their advantage to 42-25 by the end of the quarter. The Redbirds were able to coast to the final horn, outscoring the Panthers, 14-12, in the final period. Lewis finished with 11 and Hisel contributed 8 for the Redbirds. Trevor Ireland led the Panthers, who finished the season 21-5, with 11 points. The Panthers will return 3 key starters next season for another post season run, Jones, Cowley and Crone.

Strong 4th quarter lifts Panthers to Class 1, D14 title
The Pattonsburg Panthers, in transition, proved to be too much for Worth County Saturday afternoon in the Class 1, District 14 championship game. Revenge may or may not have been a motivating factor for the Panthers after the #4 seeded Tigers knocked off top-seeded Mercer in the semifinal round. Pattonsburg absorbed a bitter
loss to Worth County back in November in the 8-man football semifinals but Saturday was post season payback for the Panthers, who came on strong in the fourth quarter to claim a 63-53 victory. Pattonsburg’s boys last won a district in 1990. They also made it to the district finals in 1991. Worth County had won back-toback district crowns and was a
state quarterfinalist last season after winning 24 games. The Tigers took a 42-41 lead into the final period but Cameron Jones scored on a layup to give the Panthers a lead they would never relinquish. Trevor Ireland added a bucket on the next PHS possession. A Carter Crone putback, second Jones layup and Patrick Crowley shot from the

right side put the #2 seeded Panthers in front, 51-44, with 5 minutes left to play. Pattonsburg stretched its advantage to 57-51 with a pair of Crone free throws, Cowley layup and Connor Ireland basket in the paint. With the score 57-52, the Tigers missed a good opportunity to cut the gap. Trevor Ireland missed a free throw attempt but Jones was fouled after controlling the defensive rebound. Jones hit 1 of 2 foul shots with 54 seconds left and Crone blocked an Alex Rinehart shot on the next Tiger possession. Jones, Crone and Cowley combined for 5 free throws down the stretch to seal the victory for the Panthers. Jones scored 17 of his gamehigh 18 points in the 2nd half. Crone notched 10 points in the first half and finished with 15. Connor Ireland chipped in 13 and Cowley added 10 for the Panthers, who topped the 20win mark with the victory. Caleb Parman led Worth County with 15 points. Rinehart finished with 14 and Jackson Runde chipped in 13 for the Tigers, whose season ended at 13-12.

What Bible verse is most often quoted by non-Christians and unbelievers? (Hint: They don't believe in God and they don't know any other verses in the Bible — but they quote this verse, and use it against Christians) It is Matthew 7:1 which is “Do not judge….” Non-Christians love to quote this verse because it fits in perfectly with their belief that truth is relative. What's “true” for you might not be “true” for me. Your rules are not the same as my rules. My lifestyle is just as good as your lifestyle. So, who are you to pass judgment on me? Is that what Jesus really meant when he spoke these words? We all make judgments every day. I prefer this brand over that brand. I like this restaurant much better that that one. I'd rather be with that person than with another. And yet, all the judgments we make are limited: 1. We are limited by what we see. If four people witness an accident, there will be four differing versions; each person sees the event from a different angle. Plus, we don't always see things clearly. 2. We are limited by what we hear (i.e. Did you hear what Harry said? My friend told me that one of his friends was right there when Harry said that terrible thing). In World War II, a submarine suffered damage and made it to within a mile of shore. The “captain” went out through the escape-hatch, swam to shore, alerted the Coast Guard, and the sub was saved. The newspapers were outraged, the public called for his court-martial. A captain is never to desert his ship or abandon his crew. Turns out, the man who saved the sub and its crew was not the captain; he was a civilian who happened to be on board the submarine. This man was now declared a hero. 3. We cannot judge the past by today's standards. Many are judging George Washington harshly because he owned slaves. Wrong! Washington was in line with the standards of the 1700s. Slavery was an economic necessity; slavery was socially and culturally acceptable. In fact, Washington was a caring and compassionate slave-owner; he treated his slaves with dignity and respect. Many of his slaves had a far better life than do a lot of black folks today. 4. Finally, I disagree with those who tear down statues and demolish monuments because they are offended by symbols of slavery. I'm offended because they represent something much different, symbols of heroism. So, bring back the General Lee, complete with the Rebel Flag. To some it represents slavery; but to me it seems as if the more racist a person is, the more they see symbols of racism everywhere — even when they do not exist! I believe that what Jesus was saying was this: “Judge others by the same standards that you want to be judged. Realize that our human judgments are limited. Always check for the facts, as far as it's possible. Be slow to pass on what you see or hear. And leave the final judgment to God!”

McDonald, commanding officer of Troop H.

Auditor releases seizure reports Missouri State Auditor Nicole Galloway recently released a compilation of property seizures made under Missouri’s Criminal Activity Forfeiture Act (CAFA) in 2018. The auditor’s report shows law enforcement officials seized an estimated $9.1 million worth of property in 699 seizures. Those were increases from 2017, when law enforcement officials seized approximately $7 million worth of property in 658 seizures. Under the Criminal Activity Forfeiture Act, law enforcement officials may take possession of property or cash believed to be involved in or related to a crime. State law requires prosecuting attorneys and the Attorney General to file information about reported seizures each year with the State Auditor’s Office. Approximately 63% of the total seized in 2018 was transferred to federal agencies. The remainder was either returned (6%), transferred to the state (1%) or still pending a final decision (23%). Approximately 6% of reported seizures did not include the dis-
position of the seized property. According to the report, the estimated value of Daviess County seizures reported was $6,000 with a status report of “pending.” This report covers forfeitures under Missouri’s CAFA. A report on activities under federal forfeiture laws will be released later this year.

City presented grant for poles; approves amendments to new zoning ordinance Connie Ford with Missouri Public Utility Alliance (MPUA) presented Gallatin Mayor Barb Ballew with a check for $7,883, awarding the city with a grant for pole replacements. Ford also mentioned the city has been awarded $33,527 in grant funding since 2015. Public Works Director Mark Morey noted that city crews have been busy removing snow and spreading salt and sand. The board discussed possible street projects for this summer. Morey is anticipating spending $10,000 to $15,000 in cold mix after this winter for pothole repairs. Morey would like to order a tank of oil to complete a few chip/seal projects and order a portion of the city’s township rock credit for rock chips. The board discussed Richardson Street needing to be resealed and also a section of Park Street which needs replacement. The board accepted Anderson Ford’s bid for the purchase of a 2019 F250 for $33,229.24 upon approval of financing. Mayor Ballew presented the bids as follows: F250 truck bids: Barnes Baker, $33,432; Pettijohn, $33,432; Chillicothe Ford, $33,516.24; Anderson Ford, St. Joseph, $33,229.24. Discussion was held on financing options. City Administrator Lance Rains will reach out to BTC, Farmers Bank, Anderson Ford, and MAMU for financing options. A public hearing was held before the Board of Aldermen met, to consider amendments to the zoning regulations, made in conformance with state statute and to update various zoning regulations. First and second reading was approved, and a new code of ordinances was adopted by the board. The new ordinance provides for the repeal of certain ordinances; provides for the manner of amending such code of ordinances; provides penalty for violation; and provides for when the ordinance shall become effective. Laurie Roll announced she wouldn’t be able to manage the pool the entire season this year and recommended the board consider creating a head guard and/or hiring another adult supervisor. The board will consider their options. Police Chief Richards submitted a report on activity for Feb. 25: two suspicious person circumstances; one welfare check; two civil standby; one trespassing; one tampering; one traffic accident with damage; one unattended death; one runaway juvenile; one peace disturbance; one theft; one vandalism; one domestic disturbance; and one assault. The city’s annual MIRMA (Missouri’s Municipal Trust) insurance evaluation went well with no issues found.
There are two dogs in the pound. Alderman Whitfield inquired about selling fireworks in town. Chief Richards stated that it is against city ordinance to sell fireworks within city limits, but residents have the option of requesting a conditional use permit be to be presented to the board for approval. Discussion was held on past and future contracts with Public Water Supply District #2 and United States Department of Agriculture requirements. The board discussed the insurance claim that was filed by Dollar General for storm damage repairs. Rains will work with MIRMA to address the claim. Bills in the amount of $17,482.53 were approved for payment. Discussion was held on the park board’s shelter house remodeling plans and factoring in tax exemptions in the bid specifications. The used score board that was purchased from the City of Bethany will be able to be hooked up to the existing electric box at the upper baseball field. Mayor Ballew tabled the cemetery memorial request. City Administrator Lance Rains was added to the signature cards at Farmers and BTC Banks. He was also assigned as an authorized contact for State Farm, Edward Jones, Commerce Bank, Verizon, Windstream, and Sam’s Club. Discussion was held on the Shopko building and cupola building. The City of Gallatin was denied the grant to purchase a new dump truck. Morey will review other options for purchasing a dump truck. The above are the unapproved minutes of the regular meeting for the City of Gallatin held on Feb. 25 at city hall. Present were Mayor Barb Ballew, President of Board John Whitfield, Aldermen Carol Walker, Dan Lockridge, Steve Evans, City Administrator Lance Rains, City Clerk Hattie Rains, Public Works Director Mark Morey, Police Chief Mark Richards, Police Chaplain Austin Bonnett, Connie Ford with MPUA, Laurie Walton-Roll.

Missouri loses at Florida, hosts S. Carolina Saturday b y Benj amin Herrold Missouri lost two games last week, but both were efforts you could take some encouragement from, scrappy losses in tough situations. On Tuesday, the Tigers lost 66-58 at home to a surging, talented Kentucky team. Then, on Saturday, playing on the road against Florida and with Tiger Mark Smith again out with injury, Missouri lost 64-60 in a game they led for much of the second half. Missouri (12-14, 3-11 in SEC play through Sunday) showed a lot of resolve and competitive fire, rallying late against Kentucky (23-4, 12-2 in SEC) and nearly pulling off the upset of Florida (16-11, 8-6 in SEC) as a big underdog. Still, it’s hard to get too excited about a week where your team went 0-2. The Tigers now sit at 12th in the 14-team SEC. It’s a long shot that they’ll be able to avoid being one of the bottom four teams who play on the opening night of the SEC

Third place area winners were Bethany Bailey, Ag Education, and Klayton Lynch, Environmental Science Placement.
SW FBLA students shadow BTC officers Two members from the Southwest Livingston FBLA Chapter took part in a job shadowing opportunity on Feb. 19 at BTC Bank in Carrollton. Matney Waters and Julian Hughes of the Partnership with Business FBLA project spent a day observing the daily roles and responsibilities of Cohlby Jones, loan officer and financial advisor, Shelby Cauble, real estate loan officer, and Jeff Donovan of Gallatin, financial manager. The students’ advisor is Kayce Terhune of Gallatin. Cohlby Jones, branch vice president, discussed loans with the students. Jeff Donovan and Mr. Jones then explained their roles as financial advisors within the bank. Mrs. Cauble explained the home loan process to the students. Matney and Julian ended the day behind the teller windows, observing the many tasks and procedures performed by a bank teller each day. The students were very appreciative of the excellent learning opportunity.
Tournament. And sophomore big man Jeremiah Tilmon was limited to just 15 minutes due to foul trouble and fouled out yet again. But this is a rebuilding year, so let’s focus on the positives. Freshman Javon Pickett scored 15 points in a strong 36 minutes. Freshman Torrence Watson remains a streaky shooter, but when the threes are going in, as three of his nine Saturday did, you can imagine down the road him making shots that help put Missouri over the top. Of course, it’s not all about the young players. Senior Jordan Geist used his scrappiness and resourcefulness scoring 16 points and committing just one turnover in 39 minutes of game time. Missouri as a whole kept its turnover issues in check, committing just 10 turnovers in the game. The Tigers led 40-28 in the second half, but the Gators reeled them in, led by KeVaughn Allen, who scored 17 points in the game. Missouri has another shot at a win on Saturday when they return home to face South Caro-
lina (2:30 p.m. on SEC Network). The Gamecocks (14-13, 9-5 in SEC) went 5-8 in nonconference play. But they’ve improved dramatically in SEC play, starting the week tied for fourth in the conference. Senior Chris Silva and freshman A.J. Lawson both average 14.0 points per game for South Carolina. Silva also leads the team in rebounding, and Lawson is the assists leader. The head coach is a familiar face. Frank Martin used to come to Mizzou Arena as the K-State coach for five seasons. He’s now in his seventh season at South Carolina, which includes a Final Four in 2017. Saturday’s game kicks off a three-game stretch of winnable games to finish the season — home against South Carolina, at Georgia, and home against Ole Miss. It’s a chance for Missouri to end the season on a good note, and hopefully generate some positive momentum heading into an important offseason for the program. ***** Stretching the truth won’t make it last any longer.

a pharmacy at the old Casey’s location. The Dungys said the following in a Facebook announcement: “We want any new pharmacy to be successful. Because there is another option for a pharmacy in Gallatin, we talked to the company considering putting the pharmacy in our store, and jointly we have decided it is in the best interest of the community to not have a pharmacy in our supermarket as previously stated. We wish the very best to Main Street Medical Pharmacy, Mackenzie Morrison and her family. “We will continue to serve you as your local hometown grocers and thank you for your continued support and patronage.” The Shopko pharmacy closed Feb. 11, and the Shopko store, which is currently being liquidated, will close in May, due to bankruptcy proceedings.
