Putnam County School Board OKs levy State still isn’t living up to its end of the deal By Dave Cook

news@putnamcountyrecord.com

GRANVILLE — During the Putnam County School Board meeting held on Monday, Dec. 19, the board approved the 2016 tax levy as well the bond abatement resolution. The bond abatement resolution was official paperwork to abate the bond payment in Putnam County, since all payment for the bond was collected in one year. LaSalle

and Marshall counties will levy the scheduled amount. The board also approved a disciplinary re-entry policy for students returning from long-term suspensions, as required by Senate Bill 100. The state continues to lag in its educational funding. The state currently owes the Putnam County School District $105,541.24 for special education; $108,397.08 for transportation; and $320.26 for the free lunch program — a total of $214,258.58. The district has also not received any funding as of yet

for early childhood education. Superintendent Carl Carlson said the board approved the transfer of funds from the working cash fund to the transportation fund “to cover bills due to the lack of mandated categorical payments from the state.” The board approved the hiring of Carmela Rodriguez as the sophomore volleyball coach and Melissa Balmaas as the sixth-grade volleyball coach. The board accepted resignations from job coach Rebecca Johnson and freshman coach Carmela Rodriguez. The next Putnam County School Board meeting will be held at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 17 in the PCPS Media Center.

A different path — taking a Step Ahead Program helps youth build a new future By Dave Cook

news@putnamcountyrecord.com

PRINCETON — Graduate high school, go to college and get a job — this is the path so often laid out for youth. However, things don’t

always go as planned. Whatever the reason, family instability, health, youthful restlessness or other issues — some students fall off the prescribed path and don’t complete their high school education. The

Vol. 149 No. 18

Step Ahead program helps these students regain their footing and continue toward a brighter future. The Business Employment Skills Team, Inc. (B.E.S.T.) works with the Regional Office of Education (ROE) to assist

low-income youth, ages 16 to 24, in obtaining their GED or high school equivalency diploma. B.E.S.T. career advisor Kerri Hicks said, “Our focus is to assist youth in gaining meaningful employment through education, training, job search assistance and work experience. We

provide youth with GED services we’ve contracted through the Regional Office of Education. Being federally-funded, we can assist in furthering one’s education depending on the program of interest. By helping with tuition,

HENNEPIN — In the hopes of possibly receiving some of the proposed infrastructure spending from the new presidential administration, Hennepin village engineer Bill Shafer advised the Hennepin Village Board to have planned projects in a “shovel-ready” state. Shafer explained while exact requirements are still unknown, funds are typically given to projects which have already been fully-planned and could be opened quickly for bidding. The ongoing improvements to High Street were a project Shafer felt could meet these requirements. After the meeting, Shafer said ideally High Street would eventually be widened enough to include a bike/ walking path which could provide residents a full loop that would include Route 26 and County Road 1050 North. Shafer also said the Illinois Department of Transportation will soon be performing its audit of Hennepin. The board passed the tax levy ordinance which includes a 5 percent increase. The board estimated the average per home increase will be about $16. The board also passed the travel ordinance

Will work for love By Dave Cook

PERU — The small group of children gathered at the library and each selected a favorite book. One by one they were called forward to read with their friend, Ruby. She listened intently and non-judgmentally, as friends should, and though she doesn’t say much she provides a special way to help young readers — as a therapy dog. For the past five years, Ruby, a 7-year-old Cockapoo, and her handler, Julie Condie, a pediatric occupational therapist, have routinely visited the Peru Public Library. “Our Reading With Ruby program helps children build confidence in a neutral environment, and anything we can offer to engage children in reading will improve their skills,” children’s services manager Lynn Sheedy said. Sheedy said several of the children have essentially grown up with Ruby, and even the newest readers can be seen to quickly improve with her help. Condie, who has previously worked in the Mendota School District, was approved by that school board to take Ruby to work with her, and Ruby proved herself a valuable asset to students and staff. She especially helped special education students and others struggling with behavioral issues. Condie said, “She’s a much better motivator than a person, and she’s also a great reward. Even teachers would occasionally come to

visit Ruby for a hug during stressful days.” Her advice for all dog owners is to be sure their dogs are properly socialized with other animals and people of all sorts. She also shared advice for those wanting to have their dogs certified as therapy dogs. “The biggest goal is to not skip any obedience training and to always keep working with them. Behavioral issues are rarely the dog’s fault; they’re owner-driven errors. You must also learn to watch for stress signals and be in tune with your dog,” she said. Trainer Jen Rhodes, owner of My Best Friend Training in LaMoille, helps teach and certify therapy dogs for Therapy Dog International. Once handler and dog both pass their tests, they become a member for a small annual fee which includes $150,000 in liability insurance. “Other programs require your homeowners insurance or an independent policy to be purchased. More and more facilities require dogs to be certified by Therapy Dog International before visiting because the dog’s medical records are monitored by the organization,” Rhodes said. She said the biggest obstacles she’s noticed with therapy dogs is many people misunderstand them, believing they’re service dogs. “There’s a difference. Service dogs are for individuals with a disability, and the dog is trained to perform a duty or several duties to assist that individual’s needs,” Rhodes said. She added a therapy dog is trained to comfort and food, parking and toll reimbursement and the federal rate for mileage. The board approved $100 donations for Freedom House, the Putnam County Food Pantry and the second annual TBM

Ruby is happy to show gentle encouragement to young readers who come to visit her at the library programs. After everyone has read to her, Ruby usually performs tricks for them. Her handler, Julie Condie, also teaches the children the rules about approaching strange dogs. ease the stress, pain or fear of complete strangers and uncomfortable situations, saying, “They’re visiting dogs who know they work for no more than pure love.” One of the places Rhodes visits with Abbey, her Rottweiler, is the Illinois Valley Community Hospital. She said when they walk into the emergency room together, they’re welcomed by staff and patients with open arms. “These dogs know when people need them. Abbey once sat with a lady whose husband was dying, and the lady smiled at a time when she didn’t think she could. As I sat with Abbey and her new friend, I had a lump in

my throat watching my dog love her and she reciprocating that affection,” Rhodes said. Rhodes also said she often gets calls about how to turn a pet into a therapy dog, and she believes the more people see that dogs can do more than lay in the backyard or on the couch, the more they will want to make their dog a therapy dog. However, it takes hard work and the right combination of dog and owner to be certified. “Not all dogs are cut out for therapy work, just as all humans aren’t meant to be teachers or doctors. When I have a class, I can tell which dogs will excel and which

ones won’t by the fourth class out of 10,” Rhodes said. She said her therapy dog classes fill up quickly; she tests twice a year and always fills her testing days. “We test only 15 dogs each time. Classes aren’t required to get certified, but it helps to be prepared. One thing I should make note of is any breed can become a therapy dog. It’s all about temperament.” Rhodes added. She said the biggest challenge for any handler is watching their beloved therapy dog become old and seeing it get harder for them to go out and work. “However, for me and Abs, we will go until she calls it quits,” Rhodes said.

Avenger reunion. The board also discussed street cleaning frequency and decided to have it done twice a year, once in the middle of June and once in the fall.

The board reminded residents to remove their vehicles from the streets when more than 2 inches of snow is expected, so the streets can be efficiently plowed. The board thanked

the many volunteers, the park district, the Hennepin United Methodist Church choir and Imperial Crane for their assistance in the village’s Christmas celebration on Dec. 3.

Step Ahead From Page 1 B.E.S.T. career advisor Kerri Hicks said, “Our focus is to assist youth in gaining meaningful employment through education, training, job search assistance and work experience. We provide youth with GED services we’ve contracted through the Regional Office of Education. Being federally-funded, we can assist in furthering one’s education depending on the program of interest. By helping with tuition, we can also help in paying for books and other fees including reimbursement for transportation, required tools, uniforms and equipment.” Covering Ogle, Jo Daviess, Carroll, Whiteside, Lee, Bureau, Putnam and LaSalle counties, the Step Ahead program provides educational support to prepare for testing. It strives to develop positive relations; so self-esteem is increased, and students can begin to envision the accomplishments they’re working toward. Study sessions are held in public libraries, and personal skills, communication, personal choice, decision making and teamwork are all important components. B.E.S.T. also has a variety of incentives available for youth attaining their GED, equivalency diploma or by showing an increase in one or more educational areas. Kim Sellers, director of learning support services with the ROE, said, “This program gives great opportunities to students who haven’t been successful in a school setting and helps them to be productive within our communities.” Since 2011, the ROE’s Tera Hicks has been regularly meeting Bureau County students twice a week at public libraries to tutor and encourage them, as they prepare for their various tests. Tera said “Since January of this year we’ve served 18 students, and 11 of them have received their diploma or

GED, and the other seven are still progressing,” Instability is one of the most common factors in a student dropping out of high school, according to both Sellers and Tera Hicks. “One student lived in three different towns during the six months he was in our program,” Tera said. She also said the student successfully completed his studies and has since applied for student assistance and will soon be attending Illinois Valley Community College. “We help break down the barriers these students face, whether it’s personal, transportation or financial; It’s a huge relief for a lot of our families,” she said. Mackenzie File, 18, of Princeton has been enrolled in Step Ahead since May. File has two tests left before completing the program — social studies and the Constitution. She became aware of the program through the high school when she dropped out during her junior year. She said she became frustrated after being held back because she had missed so much school because of health problems. “They told me they wanted me to continue my education,and I’m so excited to almost be done,” File said. “This program has helped me a lot and actually made me grow up. Tera has given me so much confidence with my studies. I struggled with math, but with her help I scored very high on my test.” File plans to continue her education at IVCC and become a certified nursing assistant, and B.E.S.T. will also be able to assist her to reach that goal. She ultimately wants to become a radiologist. File concluded her thoughts on Step Ahead by saying, “Without this program I probably would’ve never sought an education or ever thought about college. Honestly ... I would’ve just given up.” For more information, visit the B.E.S.T. website at www.best-inc.org.

This program helped me be the person I am today and made me realize I’m capable of anything I put my mind to. I recommend this program to anyone without a high school diploma because it will truly help you get a chance to have a successful life.” • “As I finally decided to get my life together, this program was right there to help me through it. They gave me job placement, and I am now being hired on by the company. They’ve opened many doors for people like me, and I strongly endorse the program because they help with a second chance. I will forever remember this program.” •“I’m thankful for this program for providing me with a gifted tutor who helped me understand the problems on each test and also helped me with my confidence.

St. Margaret’s ER project granted occupancy SPRING VALLEY — St. Margaret’s is announcing that the Illinois Department of Public Health recently granted “occupancy” to the second phase of the Emergency Room construction project. The project, which began in May 2015, consisted of

two phases that renovated the existing department and created an additional 4,200 square feet, ultimately doubling the size of the previous department. This created new exam rooms with updated fixtures and equipment, support areas, a much larger waiting

room, a results pending area, a family consultation room, a new egress corridor, and much more. For more information on the project or St. Margaret’s Health, visit www.aboutsmh.org find them on Facebook.

Moving firewood long distances can spread invasive insects CHAMPAIGN – What’s in your firewood? Tree-killing insects or diseases may be hiding in or on firewood that may be transported. The spread of invasive pests often has serious economic consequences, according to Kelly Estes, coordinator of the Cooperative Agricultural Pest Survey (CAPS), at the Illinois Natu-

ral History Survey. In a 2011 study, scientific journal researchers projected wood-boring insects are anticipated to cause nearly $1.7 billion in local government expenditures in the U.S. and $830 million in lost residential property values over a 10-year time span. Hunters and campers bringing firewood long dis-

tances from home to wooded areas or homeowners stacking untreated wood in their yards could be spreading invasive insects. “The problem is that insects are hidden in firewood, and you may be moving these pests to new areas without knowing it,” Estes said. One noteworthy inva-

sive pest associated with the movement of firewood is the emerald ash borer (EAB). The Illinois Department of Agriculture (IDOA) has lifted restrictions on the movement of firewood and other materials from ash trees, partly because the EAB is now so prevalent in the state. However, it is still illegal to move these materials

Koetz, 38, of 22 N. Homer St., Princeton, was arrested in the area of Ninth and Peoria streets in Peru at 2:21 p.m. Monday, Dec. 19, by detectives of the Peru Police Department Special Investigations Unit (SIU) and Peru Police K9. According to a Peru Police report, when Koetz was arrested, he was allegedly found in possession of suspected raw heroin, as well as a small quantity of suspected crack cocaine.

Tuesday, Dec. 20. Peru Police Chief Doug Bernabei said this is the 24th arrest related to the distribution of heroin made by Peru SIU since Jan. 27. “I am extremely proud of Peru SIU, and we pledge to continue to work with our law enforcement partners in targeting those people who come into the Illinois Valley area (with the) intent to deal dangerous narcotics,” he said. The charges in this case, as in all criminal cases, are allegations and the defendant enjoys the presumption of innocence until proven guilty.

ISP announces results of NITE patrols LASALLE — Illinois State Police (ISP) District 17 announced the results of Nighttime Enforcement (NITE) patrols in LaSalle County during November. These NITE patrols allowed the ISP to focus on preventing, detecting and taking enforcement action in response to impaired driving and occupant restraint violations, especially between the hours of 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.

Nov. 30

Nov. 21

The seized contraband will be taken to the state crime lab and depending on final analysis, additional charges may be filed, including a possible Class X felony. The LaSalle County State’s Attorney’s Office approved a preliminary Class 1 felony of unlawful possession with the intent to deliver heroin for Koetz after he allegedly was found in possession of the controlled substance, which was part of an undercover police surveillance operation, the report said. Koetz was taken to LaSalle County Jail pending a bond court appearance, which was expected to be held

During the detail, officers issued a total of 67 warnings and 16 citations. There were two citations given for occupant restraint offenses, seven warnings for registration offenses and one citation and five warnings given for driver’s license offenses. There were zero arrests made for DUI, insurance violations, other alcohol and drug offenses. Alcohol and drug impairment is

a factor in more than 30 percent of all fatal motor vehicle crashes in Illinois. Over half of all fatal crashes in Illinois occur at night. The NITE program allows officers to work even harder at removing dangerous impaired drivers from the road and making sure everyone is buckled up. The project is funded through the Illinois Department of Transportation.

ISP announces results of STEP LASALLE — Illinois State Police (ISP) District 17 announced the results of Special Traffic Enforcement Patrols (STEP) in LaSalle County during November. These STEPs allowed ISP to provide increased enforcement for impaired driving,

occupant restraint, speeding and distracted driving violations during the national Click It or Ticket campaign. During the detail, officers issued a total of 149 citations and 91 written warnings. There were a total of 19 citations given for occupant

restraint violations and 103 citations for speeding violations. There were four DUI arrests and one other drug/ alcohol arrest made. There were also two citations and two written warnings given for distracted driving offenses.

ISP releases November activity report LASALLE — Illinois State Police (ISP) District 17 troopers handled 1,590 calls for service and assistance during November. Of these calls, 110 were to help motorists whose vehicles were disabled on area highways. Criminal activities included four people arrest-

ed on outstanding warrants and 21 arrests for other criminal offenses. Traffic enforcement activities resulted in 349 drivers arrested for speeding and 108 cited for seat belt violations. Driving under the influence arrests totaled eight, while there were five apprehensions for

other alcohol-related offenses recorded. Troopers issued a total of 625 traffic citations and 705 written warnings to motorists. Troopers and weight inspectors issued nine citations for overweight loads and issued no written warnings for overweight violations.

Putnam County Sheriff At 12:38 a.m. on Dec. 17, the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department arrested and charged Tyler M. Witherspoon, 22, of Chillicothe with driving suspended and operating an uninsured motor vehicle following a traffic stop on Route 89 in Granville Township. Witherspoon was released with a notice to appear and given a Putnam County Court date. The Putnam County Sheriff’s Department was assisted by the Spring Valley Police Department.

Seeing eye to eye with my son I had a disturbing parenting epiphany the other night. This was the sudden realization that left me reeling — my son will soon be taller than me. For the rest of you, that might not seem Shannon so shocking, but for me, it doesn’t seem Serpette possible. COMMENTARY Here’s what led to my sudden insight: I was at my son’s first basketball game of this season, when I noticed his sixth-grade classmate had a moustache. There must be some mistake, I thought. I wasn’t expecting moustaches until high school. It was like a bad house guest had arrived two hours before party time, showing up on my doorstep way before I was prepared. Of course I’ve noticed my son has been rapidly catching me in height. At the start of this year, I calculated I had at least two more years before he’d catch me. That was enough time to mentally prepare for that, I thought. But taking a closer look at his classmate’s moustache had me convinced I might have miscalculated. Puberty, and the meteoric growth spurt that comes with it, might be happening sooner than I had ever dreamed. I scanned the gym floor, staring critically at his other classmates. Some of them had shot up in height since I last saw them, standing multiple inches taller than I remembered them. That’s when it hit me — this is likely the last year I’ll be taller than my son. By the time his next birthday rolls around, he’ll have probably gained the 4 inches he needs to stand eye to eye with me. While he is eagerly anticipating the day he’ll get to look down on me, I’m just as fiercely dreading it. It seems like just yesterday I was rocking him to sleep night after night before placing him gently in his crib. I remember his first steps, his first tooth, his first word, with such clarity that it doesn’t seem possible he’s already in junior high. Ignoring all the obvious evidence — like the fact he wears a bigger shoe size than I do — won’t change the hard truth. I can’t freeze or slow down time, even though I desperately wish I could. Since I can’t manipulate time, the only thing I can change is my reaction to his growing independence. I’m trying to look forward to all the great things that will happen to him in the next few years instead of looking back and feeling sorry that so many wonderful moments have passed. So now I’m trying to think about all the good things that will happen when he towers over me. He’ll be able to reach the high shelves for me in our food pantry. He’ll be able to put the star on the Christmas tree, which will save me from having to carry a heavy chair from the kitchen to do it. It might be good for my posture to have to look up at one of my children, since right now I have to look down at both of them. Can you tell I’m grasping at straws here? I’m trying to convince myself that these things will make me feel better about losing my height advantage. But, really, nothing will. So I’ve devised a way to fool myself instead. I’d rather risk a sprained ankle than admit my baby is approaching manhood. So the next time you see me, if you notice I’m hobbling around on 6-inch heels, you’ll know why. I am in denial. All I’ll have to do is slip on those heels first thing in the morning and not take them off until I go to bed at night. That should buy me another year or two before I have to adjust to this new, harsh reality. PCR Copy Editor Shannon Serpette can be reached at sserpette@bcrnews.com.

The stuff does matter I know all of you have been reading and seeing the pictures from the wildfires in, near and around Gatlinburg, Tenn. Having visited that area a few years ago, I am very sad to realize that much of the scenery I enjoyed is now ashes. I rode the skylift that is now gone, I drove through the forests of the Smoky Mountains, I saw many of the other landmarks that have been shown on newscasts and in pictures. A total of more than 17,800 acres have burned. I was recently discussing the fire with my grandson, and he asked how big was an acre. Good question. I am not a person with those kinds of facts at my fingertips, but I did tell him that an acre is a measurement of area and not necessarily a measurement of width and length as inches, feet and yards are. An acre can be a variety of widths and lengths. Google told me (since I did not know) that an acre is equal to 43,560 square feet. If you had a perfect square equal to an acre, each side would be approximately 208 feet. To compare to something most of us are familiar with, a football field is 100 yards long or 300 feet long and 160 feet wide. So a square acre would be two-thirds of a football field long and one and one-third football fields wide. My non-mathematical brain is just using this for a rough estimate. If you can imagine 17,800 of those stacked around, that is the amount of space that has been burned. And, even more importantly, as of today when I am writing this

Nita Wyatt COMMENTARY

column, 13 lives have been lost. A very sad disaster for the people of that area. In thinking about the people who suffered losses, I try to imagine how I would feel, how I would react, how I would move on. Just imagine if you can, you wake up today and you are told that you must evacuate your home. You understand that with this evacuation you may be leaving your home for good, leaving behind much of your personal property, with only the hope that you will return to something other than a shell of your current life. What do you take with you? What do you make sure is kept? After your family and your pets, what goes with you? Everyone always says they would take their family pictures. I totally agree. Along with taking my actual paper pictures, I would have to take my laptop, my iPad and of course my phone. All of those have pictures on them that are not replaceable. OK, I have those, but I still have space in my evacuation vehicle to hold other memories. What now? I am sitting in my house writing this, and it is really hard to make those choices. Of course, I would need the necessities, i.e. clothes, toilet-

ries, pillows, a couple of blankets. I think of my mother’s china and silverware; those are not replaceable for me. If I had enough space, I would take an antique trunk originally owned by my oldest sister, a sister that was gone before I was born. That to me is not replaceable. I would take a bowl belonging to my great-grandmother and a toothpick holder from my grandmother. I would bring some special gifts from my daughter and some special items from my husband — the earrings he gave me for our wedding, those kinds of things. The fabric and memories of my life. The rest, well it is just stuff. But I can’t imagine how those evacuated feel if they return to where their home was and find everything gone. You are safe and your family is safe, but that stuff still matters — that stuff is still part of your life. My heart goes out to the people affected by these wildfires. Help for these victims has come from both a long-time famous singer and a group of newly wealthy lottery winners as well as individuals and groups of volunteers. I am sure all help is appreciated. If you had to leave your home, what would you take? What would be irreplaceable for you? As we spend more time inside our homes this winter, take stock of what’s important; take time to enjoy your stuff; take time to enjoy your blessings.

Fine dining The other day, my family and I decided that we would go all out and experience a special night. My wife didn’t feel like cooking, and she also didn’t feel like eating either of the two dishes that I know how to make. (That would be cheesy scrambled eggs with cut up hot dogs and pecan pie for those of you playing along at home.) So we, myself, my wife and daughter, decided to get dressed up and go out to eat at the fanciest, swankiest restaurant that we could all agree upon. Now when I say that we were going out, what I actually meant to say was that I was going to have to go out, pick up the meal and bring it back home. And when I said we were going to be dressed up, I meant to say that my wife said that I had to wear pants when I picked up the order. I wanted to point out to her that the sign on the door at the restaurant only talks about shirts and shoes to receive service — pants are never mentioned. But I kept my mouth shut because I didn’t want to ruin our special night. And when I said “fanciest, swankiest restaurant,” I may have been a bit misleading. The restaurant is actually a local gas station that also serves food. However, we did order the most exotic dish that is on the menu — taco pizza. Before this grand evening of living beyond excess could begin, we had to call in the order for this fivestar meal. My wife walked across the kitchen and began looking for the menu to the aforementioned gas station/eatery. It was not in its usual spot which is clamped in a bright yellow, magnetized clip that is located just below our 2016 dog picture calendar that is held up by a translucent blue clip magnet on our freezer door. With no menu, our fine dining plans were up in the air.

Greg Wallace COMMENTARY

My wife then said those two dreaded words that any husband hates to hear. “Uh-oh,” she said quietly under her breath. Through all of the commotion, I could tell that the situation had dramatically escalated from a little bit bad to just a little bit worse. “What is it? What’s wrong?” I pleaded with her to tell me. She explained that sometimes when I open the freezer door rapidly in order to get to my personal stash of lime-green Freeze Pops, the menu tends to slide out of the confines of the magnetic clip and land in between the side of the freezer and the kitchen wall. Oh the horror. We got a flashlight and shone it in the crevasse between the appliance and the orange sherbet-colored wall. There it was, about halfway back, taunting us, just out of the reach of my chiseled, beefy, well-muscled forearms. I think that I heard the dogs on the calendar laughing at me. I grabbed a nearby flyswatter and angled it in to attempt to pull the 8 1/2-by-11 inch sheet of paper out. But alas, the flyswatter had too much flex in it, and I couldn’t get enough pressure on the paper to pull it out. I then got a second flyswatter thinking that I could possibly use them like tongs to pull the menu out. That didn’t work either, and I couldn’t help but ponder, “Gee, we must have a lot of flies.” My wife then had the brilliant idea to put a piece of tape on the end of one of the flyswatters, and I could then use the adhesive power

of the tape to stick to the paper. At that moment, I realized that I was possibly married to the smartest woman in the world. I applied the tape to the swatter and proceeded to work my magic. I could practically taste the Doritos on the pizza. Apparently either the tape or the flyswatter, or possibly both, were defective in some way because it just didn’t work out. It was in no way my fault, but I should probably mention that we now have a piece of tape stuck to side of our freezer just in case future archaeologists wonder how it got there. I was at the end of my rope. In my starvation-addled frame of mind, I couldn’t think clearly. But then my wife had another brainstorm. She asked, “What about the yardstick?” Have I mentioned that she’s a genius? In all of the hubbub, I had completely forgotten about the old reliable Heinold Hog Market wooden yardstick that is kept in the corner of our back porch. When I say yardstick, it’s actually 4 feet long. I don’t know why. It has been used to fish things out from underneath and beside appliances for as long as I can remember. Ironically, I don’t ever recall using it to actually measure anything. I am happy to report that after finding the proper tool for the job, we were able to retrieve the wayward menu. It wasn’t long before I was headed toward the gas station to procure our meal and in my celebratory mood, I even purchased some vintage bottles for us to drink from. A Country Time Lemonade and a couple of Dr. Peppers. All in all, it turned out to be a fine evening. Even with the pants. You can contact Greg Wallace at gregwallaceink7@gmail.com.

Ag-econ class will begin Jan. 12 OGLESBY — Illinois Valley Community College is taking a significant step in building its agriculture program by expanding the curriculum this spring to include a course in agricultural economics. While open to all students, the course is especially designed for full-time students pursuing either an associate in arts or associate in science degree and planning to transfer to a state university’s agri-

culture program. AGR 1001 meets from 8 to 9:15 a.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning Jan. 12. The course covers principles of economics as they apply to agriculture. Topics include production principles and costs, supply and revenue, profit maximization, consumption and demand and more.
