Forgetting
the enemy?
As of this writing on
Wednesday afternoon, i have
yet to watch any of the
republican
Ị ational
Convention Coverage. And i
don’t plan on it, either.
the last convention coverage i recall watching was in
1988. i cheered on Pat
Buchanan and watched
reagan give one of his last
speeches. if i have watched
any since, i don’t honestly recall.
in reading over the coverage of both conventions,
though, it’s interesting to see
what’s going on in between
the political posturing. At
the rỊ C, there’s Christian
leaders praying, since the
core of the GoP is conservative Christians.
But over at the democratic
Ị ational Convention, set to
take place shortly, word is
that it won’t be Christians
taking center stage. (tell me
that you’re actually surprised
by that.)
if reports are to be believed,
it appears that Barack
obama’s tent is going to be
full of Muslims. the dỊ C
plans to participate in a twohour prayer session with thos
of the islamic faith.
i may be mistaken, but
aren’t we at war because of
the actions of a certain
Muslim sect? Used to be
what the dỊ C is doing
would be called fraternizing
with the enemy.
But those were the days.
Ị ow, we just call it “let’s say
anything and pander to anyone to get elected so we can
continue
to
destroy
America.”

Robbery, assault nets 90-year term
By Joe May
Editor
A man who robbed United
Auto Salvage in 2010 and
assaulted owner danny Buck
was sentenced to 90 years in
prison last week.
According to a press release
from
Clark
County
Prosecuting Attorney Black
Batson, a local jury sentenced richard Jackson, 49,
of Prescott, to 90 years in
prison for robbery, kidnapping and two counts of theft
of property in the June of
2010 robbery of the
Hollywood business. the
jury also imposed a $12,000
fine.
in the case, Buck reported
having been robbed of his
wallet and cell phone by two
black males who then hit him
over the head and fled the
scene. Buck was able to flag
down a passing motorist and
give chance. the suspects
were able to outrun him and
at one time were spotted by
police in the Amity area.
After a jury was selected
thursday morning Jackson
requested to change his plea
to guilty to the charges.
“We met with the victims
and made a decision to allow
him to change his plea and
go to the jury for sentencing,” Batson noted. “richard
Jackson was an accomplice
in this case and was not
armed. He ultimately cooperated by giving a statement
as to his involvement and the
identity of his co-conspirator."
“the defendant pled guilty
to the crimes he committed
and justice was served by the

in word or deed, do
all in the name of

sentence of the jury,” the
prosecutor continued. “this
was great work by the Clark
County
Sheriff's
department. this was essentially a cold case. there were
no suspects. Sheriff [Jason]
Watson and i met on this
case right after he came into
office. He and his guys were
working hard to solve it.
Without those efforts and the
efforts of the initial investigator Jim Pennington and
later investigator Brian
daniel, this case would still
be unsolved. All the officers
that worked this case deserve
our praise. this is a very
strong message by our citizens who are so willing to
serve on juries. this type of
conduct will be punished
severely."

children. He stated that he
responded by pulling his belt

However, juveniles at the

By Joe May
Editor
Allegations that a recent
audit of the Gurdon Water

their way around the area
lately.
Mayor Clayton Franklin
did not immediately return a
call made to his office by
press time Wednesday afternoon.
However, Clark
County

allegations, said he had
heard the same thing.
“We are not investigating a
case with the Gurdon Water

agency that might be
involved.”
Clark County Prosecuting

Parole denied to arkadelphia man who killed fruit vender
By Joe May
Editor
An Arkadelphia man who
was sentenced as a teenager
for the 2007 murder of a
Prescott fruit vender was
denied parole last week.
According to the Arkansas
Democrat-Gazette, 23-year-
old Kendrick Barton of
Arkadelphia, who is currently being held in the Varner
Unit, became eligible for
parole in 2010, but due to the
objections of the victim's
family and his own poor
behavior in prison, he will
remain there. Should he
serve his entire sentence, he
will be eligible for release in
2024.

Arkadelphia woman not long
after Cummings' death,
Clark County Prosecutor
Blake Batson noted.
Kendrick Barton pleaded
guilty in 2007 in Ị evada
County Juvenile Court to
first-degree murder and was
sentenced to the custody of
the department of Human
Services' Youth Services
division. in 2009, Circuit
Judge duncan Culpepper
found that the 21-year-old
had not been rehabilitated
and sentenced him to twenty
years in adult prison, with
an additional 20 suspended.
Since that time, Barton
has been punished three
times for violating prison
rules, with the most
recent offense taking
place on August 15 when
he was found to be in possession of a homemade
knife. He was sent to punitive isolation for 30 days and
had his phone, commissary
and visitation privileges
revoked for sixty days.
in 2011, citing the
nature of the offense, the
parole
board
denied
Barton's first bid for
parole. He could still be
granted parole this year,
though officials have said
that due to his disobedience, they will not act on
his request until at least
sixty days after he is released
from isolation.
point cedar News
A newspaper article stated hot, dry weather heightened the West Ị ile virus
resk. the state epidermiolgist in oklahoma fears that
the state is facing one of the
most severe seasons since it
arrived in 2002. there were
eight confirmed cases of
West Ị ile infection, with seven
being the serious, neuro-invasive
form of the disase. this virus is
a cyclical disease in humans,
apeparing in the summer and
disappearing in the winter as carrier mosquitoes die off and hibernate. Most people won’t get
sick, but approximately one in
150 infected will develop the
severe form of the illness.
Symptoms include headache,
high fever, neck stiffness, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness and
paralysis. Wear insect repellent
containing dEEt, picaridin or
oil of lemon eycalptus, avoid
being outdoors between dusk
and dark when mosquitos are
biting. drain standing water to
eliminate breeding habits. Culex
mosquitos
are
secretive,
approaching quickly from
behind. recently, i was bitten
just after a rain by what i assume
was an ordinary pest, so i’ve
given up most yard chores since
i’m slightly allergic to bites and
they take days to get well.
there are now many organizations formed by certain
groups following a war. the
American Legion was founded
in Paris, France in March 1919
as an organization of US war
veterans by delegates from combat and service unites of the
American Expeditionary Force
assembled in response to a call
by a committee headed by Lt.
Col. theodore roosevelt, Jr. A
national charter was granted by
Congrress in September 1919,
amended in 1942 to admit
WWii veterans, in 1950 after the
Korean War, and again in 1966
to admit veterans of the Vietnam
War. A major concern is the care
of sick and disabled veterans as
well as youth programs and
other worthy charities.
in 1948, the Soviet Union
closed the rails and roads leading
from West Germany into the
City of Berlin in an attempt to
take over Berlin from the
American, British and French
forces. Allied military cargo
planes saved 2.5 million West
Berliners from starvation. the
airlift officially began in June
1948 and even though the
russians lifted the blockade in
May 1949, allied supply efforts
continued September 30, 1949,
almost 64 years ago. the US
NoRMa
BLaNToN
alone delivered 1,789,571 tons
of materials, tons of coal and
othe miscellaneous goods.
Maybe everyone takes
time for the statistics portion
of the Sunday Hot Springs
Seninel-record. i’m fascinated by the “new” names
for the girl and boy babies.
However, i’m pleased to see
almost every week that one
or more of the girl names
will be “Grace.” others
have been Katana Ann,
Colbie rnee, Sofia Liana,
delilah Jo, Kynleigh Jade,
Victoria, Sapphire Ị icole,
Zaryea Azura. Males have
included Emmanuel Kipton,
Jaxon Ị oel, Harper Jack and his
twin, Kenndy Kate and Jordan
Sincere. Females also listed
were Scarlett Ximena and
Aubrey Kenleigh.
i didn’t know John r.
Lucas who died on August
15 very well, but many know
his sister, Jane Lucas of
Arkadelphia. other survivors are daughters dr.
Shauna and husband, John
Prince and Janie rollings a
sister Joan Andrews (Gene)
and a brother, Jim Lucas
(Jean) and grandchildren.
Sheila Childress, 66, of
Glenwood, died on Augsut
20. Her parents were the late
UL and Milred Jones Arivett.
Survivors include her husband, Farrell Childress, inlaws, Linda and dewey Small
and brother-in-law, Bill
Freeman of Bismarck. Burial
was in the Glenwood
Cemetery. in-law parents
were the late Calrk and Katie
Gardner Childress.
Flora Lou rondeau of
Malvern, died August 24.
She had been the Editor of
the Heritage, the annual publication of the Hot Spring
County Historical Society
since 2004.
Survivors
include children Steven
rondeau (deborah), denise

deborah
rondeau, grandchildren, sisters, Erma Walters, Marie

Eleanor raines. Services
were tuesday at the regency

Why are we so fascinated by all the charts and projections on the tV Weather
Channel? But our area could
receive several days of rain
from the possible hurricane
which is projected for
Louisiana. i hope my new

hasn’t really been enough
rainfall to test it.

Burning the Curley Wolf
ok. We at Gurdon are
hosting the Junior High
School
Gurdon/Prescott
football game at 7 p.m. on
thursday, Aug. 30. After the
young Go-devils take care
of business (yea i know, i
work in Prescott too but i
live in Gurdon), then the
older players get a shot on
Friday night to see what they
are made of.
rather than to predict an
outcome of that game, i figure time will tell. it starts
here at Gurdon around 7:30
p.m. if you want a seat,
come early. But let's back up
a minute, the burning of the
Curley Wolf should take
place around 9 p.m. after the
Junior High School game on
thursday night.
Again, i will not say one
way or another how i feel
about this burning of the
Curley Wolf. i will not admit
that Gurdon has been my
home for eight years and i
want our Go-devils to show
their stuff to victory on both
of these games. Ị ope. i will
not admit that truth at all...
So let me tell you about
the Burning of the Curley
Wolves, a tradition i have
not missed since 2004. the
bonfire usually gets started
about 9 p.m., just after the
Junior Go-devils finish their
attempt at smashing the
Junior Curley Wolves. of
course, if our younger players win, the ceremony is a lot
more jubilant. if we lose, it
still serves to build up the
senior squad for the rivalry
challenge of the next night.
i remember the first time
i ever saw them bring in a
coffin to burn. it is usually
some sort of wooden box
that looks like an old western movie coffin, but cheerleaders and football players
alike dance in circles while
the coffin arrives. then the
thing goes up in flames and
the spirit of victory for
Gurdon mounts up!
We in Gurdon realize the
odds are against us when it
comes to beating the bigger
Prescott team. But since the
rivalry game is at the start of
the year, and our star players
are fresh and not beat up
from hard playing, Gurdon
wins about half of these
games. At least that is my
recollection for the eight
years i have been here. i
believe the wins come
because of enthusiasm,
determination and sheer
under dog pride! oK, i admit
John
Nelson
Columnist
it. i am a Go-devil fan. And
i do like a lot of Prescott folk
that i work with these days.
But somewhere along the
line, the under dogs of
Gurdon stole my heart. i
wish you good luck fellows.
Go get me a Go-devil First
down and a Gurdon victory!!!
We are healthy so being
deep like a big town just
might not be necessary.
Again, i think it is anybody's
guess who will win this one.
But whoever wins, i will still
be proud of all the players on
both sides for their spirits of
competition
and
good
sportsmanship.
iỊ otHEr Ị EWS
i have been enjoying the
cooler weather. My old car
has been having brake system problems and i may be
paying for the repairs a
while, yet old Betzie, as i so lovingly call my old 1995 Ford
taurus, should be good to go
by Monday night and therefore make some time around
the local football fields for
the next 10 to 12 weekends.
By the time i go to my
40th high school reunion,
some five years from now in
2017, i plan to have healthy
looking teeth, a stomach that
is 40 pounds smaller and
generally be in much better
shape. My daughter Kelley is
a personal trainer at a gym
so maybe i will seek
some advise from her.
My folks both lived to be
in their 90's so i am planning a good, long, healthy
life. And i hope to go to
many more Gurdon and
Prescott football games.
Sure, i will root for
Gurdon, but if the good
people of Prescott win a
few along the way, that
will be oK too. the big
deal is to keep the enthusiasm and competition
going!
So here we go folks;
football season 2012. i
will be on the sidelines
shooting
photos
and
dancing out of the way of
our players! i hope to see
you there and may the
best teams win!!! in the
meantime, this is Just
John. still hanging out at
Gurdon.

A week before the 1980
election at the end of the last
debate ronald reagan asked
voters, “Ị ext tuesday all of
you will go to the polls, will
stand there in the polling
place and make a decision. i
think when you make that
decision, it might be well if
you would ask yourself, are
you better off than you were
four years ago? is it easier
for you to go and buy things
in the stores than it was four
years ago? is there more or
less unemployment in the
country than there was four
years ago?”
Since 1980, both sides of the
political divide have parroted
these questions with their
own carefully crafted (dare i
say biased) answers, to such
an extent voters get easily
confused comparing numbers of apples with numbers
of oranges.
Hopefully we can all agree
with James Carville’s perennially pertinent characterization of the driving issue in
most elections: “it’s the
economy, stupid!” of course
this year’s election is all
about the economy, but who
is this “stupid” James refers
to? Voters? We’re not stupid!
How has the middle class
fared since 2000? According
to Sentier research, a nonpartisan economic consulting
firm, based on census data
real median household
income was $55,470 in 2000
before the market crash.
Let’s use that as a baseline.
How did we fare under
George W? At the end of Mr.
Bush’s second term that figure was $54,983, so the
American middle-class family lost $487 under President
Bush’s two terms in office.
Ị ot so good.
How have we done under
Mr. obama’s economic policies? Sentier calculated the
real median household
income, adjusted for inflation, was $50,964 in June of
this year. in three-and-a-half
years under Mr. obama’s
policies,
middle-income
families have lost more than
$4,000! Some among us
have suffered more than others under Mr. obama. real
incomes of black Americans
have fallen by more than 11
percent.
top off these losses with
inflation of grocery prices,
gas prices, and heath care
costs and it’s easy to see why
63 percent of us (according
to rasmussen’s latest survey) believe America is on
the wrong track.
the next two weeks we’ll
hear promises from Mr.
romney and from Mr.
obama, both of whom i
expect to make convincing
cases to voters. Mr. romney
will say we need to grow the
economy to create jobs and
raise more revenue to deal
with
our
runaway
deficits/debt. Mr. obama
will say we need to raise
taxes on corporations and the
very rich among us to offset
runaway deficits/debt and to
invest in public sector jobs.
Mr. romney represents the
business side of the economy
and Mr. obama represents
the government side of the
economy. Voters will have to
decide whether a centralized
federal government can
make our economy better,
get more businesses to hire
more workers, and lower
prices of the things we buy
most; or whether businesses
are key to economic growth,
hiring, and competing with
other businesses to lower
prices of the things we buy
most.
Voters aren’t “stupid.” We
need to vote for the candidate who will put America
back on the right track.

Tranquilizing feces
Jerry had what was called a
suspect herd. His next-door
neighbors had Brucellosis
problems and since Jerry
shared a common fence, he
too, was required to be tested. the neighbors sold out
and let the land set the requisite time. Meanwhile Jerry
brought in 20 half-Gertrudis
heifers to his place. He evaluated them and concluded 2
out of 3 had no brain.
the government showed up
to test them. they insisted
on using their clanging banging government-issue head
catch, instead of what the
cattle were used to. thus a
riot ensued in which all
twenty crashed through 4
fences and 3 farms and
crossed the Flint river. two
of the half-breeds were never
found!
Six months went by. the
neighbor restocked with red
Angus cows and a bull. Jerry
continued to cruise the county in his spare time searching
for his prodigal heifers and,
sure enuf, one afternoon he
saw one amidst the neighboring red Angus! She must
have found her way back and
blended right in. Jerry called
his neighbors, two older
brothers who ran a tight ship
and were proud of their operation. He explained about
locating his heifer and asked
if he could saddle up and cut
her out. “Ị ope,” said the
brothers, “Ị o, horses. don’t
want no horses stirrin’ up our
cattle.”
“How ‘bout a tranquilizer
dart gun?” asked Jerry.
“okay, but don’t you be
trompin’ around our pasture
chasin’ dem cattle. You can
shoot from a fence and we’ll
carry her over in a bucket
loader.”
Jerry went to his local vet
who outfitted him with a
tranquilizer gun. He loaded
the dart and gave Jerry the
.22 caliber blank cartridge,
and verbal instructions. the
blank pushes the dart out of
the barrel and a plunger
injects the tranquilizer upon

AALB 59 McGrew’s
by the pasture. there she lay
under a tree chewing her
cud! He pulled off the road,
slipped on his coveralls, cradled the rifle in his arms and,
army-style, did a low crawl
like a sniper through the
swamp grass and mud.
reaching the fence he
observed, once again, how
well the brothers built their
fences; galvanized woven
panels with a strand of barb
wire both top and bottom.
He never figured they would
have put a hot wire on the
inside. that was overkill.
retaining his prone position,
he stealthily pushed the barrel of his tranquilizer gun
through the fence. Well, he
was wrong about them seeing no need to add hot wire.
Being well-grounded he
made contact; gun barrel
to hot wire. A jolt shot
through his body so hard
his porch light came on!
Even with his soles on
fire and his body buzzing
like chain saw, he was
determined. He slithered
in the mud, limped and
took his best shot.
Unfortunately, the wadding
in the blank had been
exposed to the humid air so
long, when he pulled the
trigger, it puffed, popped out
about 8 feet and nosed-dived
into a hubcap sized cow-pie.
the dart poofed daintily and
injected 2cc of rompun
intrapoopily.
“that’s how we do it in
tennessee,” he said.

2012 Book Honor Awards
Meet Author Thanhha Lai
Thanhha Lai (TANG-ha lie) won a
2012 Newbery Honor Book award and
the National Book Award for Young
People’s Literature for “Inside Out &
Back Again.” This book is based on
her own life, although she changed
some things in the story.
Her writing
Thanhha grew up in Vietnam. As
in the book, her father was missing in
action during the Vietnam War. Her
mother had to support the family by
herself during those scary times.
In real life, Thanhha has six
brothers and two sisters. The
character in the book has three
brothers and no sisters.
Thanhha’s family fled to America at
the end of the Vietnam War. She had
to learn English and a new culture.

In “Inside Out
& Back Again,”
a 10-year-old
Vietnamese
girl must flee
to America at
the end of the
Vietnam War in
1975. Then she
and her family
must learn to live
in a new world,
Alabama.
Thanhha worked as a journalist for
about 18 months. She said working
under deadlines at the newspaper
helped her perfect her English skills.
She quit her job at the paper and
worked raising money to protect the
environment, waited tables and edited
business people’s writing. But her real
job was writing her own book.
“Inside Out & Back Again” is her
first book for kids. She is now writing
her second.

Vietnam
Thanhha Lai, her husband, Henri Omer,
and their 6-year-old daughter live in New
York City. Thanhha, 47, says, “I read
everything.”
Advice to kids
“Read what you like, not because
it’s popular. Read it because you feel
something. It’s from feeling something
that you’re going to produce your own
work.
“If you read, it will sink in deep.
You can’t get this from playing video
games or seeing movies.”
Writing background
Thanhha had to struggle to learn
English. As do many immigrants, she
said, she felt dumb for the first two
years in America.
She said she thought, “If I’m going
to have to learn this, I’m going to
learn it really well.” So she studied the
dictionary.
She has always loved to read. And,
she said, “Because I went to so much
trouble to learn the dictionary, I
thought I should do something with the
words.” She earned college degrees in
English and creative writing.
Some favorites
Kids’ books: “Where the Red Fern
Grows,” “Island of the Blue Dolphins”
Color: “It depends on the time
of the year. In winter, when it’s so
dreary, I like orange. In the summer
when it’s hot, I tend to like jade green
to cool everything off. My house is all
green.”

ment. only in a small town
like Glenwood can a councilman have a business that’s
one of the city’s biggest customers. Has the term conflict of interest ever entered
your mind??? if there were a
fair bidding process, then the
term “conflict of interest”
wouldn’t even be a concern,
but it all seems unfair and
corrupt in my book.
“All of us have enjoyed
reducing our business and
home owner’s insurance cost
insurance costs…..” Mr.
Wallace, the city did that
without the tax increase.
Mr. Wallace, the city
police, specifically, has not
responded to why crime has
spiraled out of control over
the last decade in Glenwood.
the Chief, randy reid,
doesn’t want us to know
what the actual crime stats
are because then we would
know what a failure he has
been as our chief.
“Put their names (naysayers/those who voted against
the tax) down in bold letter,
laminated it, and be sure to
thank the naysayers and
gripers when the above happens. Scotch tape it to your
refrigerators.”
that, Mr. Wallace, sounds a
bit like those who voted
against the sales tax should
be in the scope of someone’s
hunting rifle to me. there
were just over one hundred
citizens who voted against
the sales tax. do you have
room on your refrigerator for
all those names? i suggest
you make some room
because i’m encouraging
them to call you with their
names so you can act accordingly.
You took my money as well
as others who put ads which
support you and the newspapers staff’s payroll for the
ads against the new sales tax.
does that not come across as
a little hypocritical???
Mr. Wallace, even with your
paper as the spokesperson of
Glenwood’s city government
you lost. Ị ext time you guys
(you, the mayor, and the
council) ask for money you
need to have a better plan
than the last one. i will see
you at the council meetings.

dear Editor,
An open letter to Mr. Mike
Wallace.
recently someone pointed
out to me comments you
made about the people who
voted against the sales tax
after the election. Whatever
happened to freedom of
speech and freedom to vote
for what you believed in?
So i went back and read
your editorial for thursday,
July 19, 2012. i will quote a
few of your comments then
respond to them. “When
Mayor ron Martin and the
four councilmembers asked
for help from those in the
opposition’s corner and
where those cuts should be
made – all they received was
silence.”
You are a storyteller like our
mayor. obviously, you were
at the council meeting, but
only in body, not mind.
there were numerous suggestions from citizens for
ideas to save the taxpayer

in my opinion the council,
mayor, and yourself could
give a hoot about what the
citizens in Glenwood want
but rather only care about
what benefits you. the term,
“i don’t have a dog in this
hunt” was used by one of my
Sergeants Major, when
describing what battles
should be fought and which
should not.
Well……Mr. Wallace, i
personally don’t have a dog
in this hunt (i don’t profit
from the citizens of
Glenwood), but i do care
about what’s right or wrong
and fair when it comes to
Glenwood. it is clear that
you (through advertisers),
some city council members,
the mayor, and anyone on the
payroll do have a dog in the
hunt.
in this town the mayor can
spend up to $20,000 dollars
wherever he wants at a time
without a bid process. How
can the city save money with
that? How many hundred
dollar hammers would that
buy?
recently a female person
who is part of a local hardware/lumber/plumbing business suggested that if i hated
Glenwood so much i should
consider moving. it’s not
that i hate Glenwood it’s that

Medicines for this Heart Condition
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) is an inherited condition characterized by an abnormally enlarged and thickened heart, which compromises the heart’s capacity to pump blood normally. In HC, the left ventricle of the heart becomes enlarged. Shortness of breath, chest pain,
dizziness, and fainting during exercise may be symptoms of the condition. However, many persons affected by the condition may not experience any symptoms. The condition carries an increased risk of arrhythmias,
and rarely, sudden cardiac death.
Persons with HC should remain aware of their hydration status, and
take measures to ensure adequate fluid intake to prevent dehydration.
Additionally, high-intensity physical activity should typically be avoided,
and a physician should be consulted to determine appropriate physical
activity for individuals with the condition. Beta-blocker medications, such
as atenolol (Tenormin) and metoprolol (Toprol XL), work to decrease the
heart’s demand for oxygen, thereby alleviating chest pain. Verapamil
(Calan, Verelan) is a calcium channel blocker that works to slow the
heart rate and relax blood vessels, and also decreases chest pain symptoms. Disopyramide (Norpace ) is an antiarrhythmic medication that works
to slow the heartbeat, and may be prescribed with a beta-blocker.
way to approach it, and his
dad advised, “Make sure that
what ever draw you select to
go up has good water coming
down. Several springs will
still be active and you surely
don't want to be up there
without water. Ị ow boys,
when you come to a good
clear spring, drink plenty of
water up close to where it's
coming out. Make sure that
something else that can bite
you isn't there already. don't
eat your provisions on the
way up, wait 'till you get on
top. if you don't dilly-dally
around, your breakfast will
get you there.”
Johnny Harding was a wise
man. He had been up there
many times hauling down
rich heart pine for his gigging boat's fire jack and he
knew it wasn't an easy hike
we were undertaking. i don't
think he was worried about
his boys too much as he was
about me. But being the kindly gentleman that he was, he was
willing to go along with it just on
my account. A wasted day in one
respect, but a benevolent act in
another.
the next morning 'way before
daybreak, Charles got us up and
Mrs. Harding and Bernice (their
sister) had a big breakfast all
cooked up and we were
encouraged to eat plenty
because we were going to
need it. the left over biscuits
were made into egg and
sausage sandwiches and each
of us were fit up with a book
satchel to carry them in.
Charles came up with a not
yet worn out pair of tennis
shoes that Johnny ray had
outgrown. “You can't go up
there bare foot. it's rough
and dangerous,” he said.

Bismarck, Centerpoint play in benefit

With the start of the 20122013 school year comes a

in the senior high game, the
first part would have two
quarters under the clock and
scoring as well. the only
change in the rules was that
the kicking part of the game
would have no defense.
After kick-offs, the receiving
team started on their thirtyyard line. during punts the
receiving team took over
where the ball landed.
Foremans was the first to
make its mark on the scoreboard with seven points. the
Bismarck Lions followed
suit with eight points. By the
time the first quarter ended,
the score was Foreman-23 to
Bismarck-8.
With a break both teams
returned to the field for more

each team had ten snaps each

good life, like a good job, a family, a
house, but that you shouldn’t be radical or
extreme about it. the world needs fewer
fanatics, not more.
Except that Christ bids us fling away
everything in order to follow him (Mark
8:34). God’s kingdom has to come first,
every time, every day (Matthew 6:32-34),
for discipleship is a daily total renunciation (Luke 9:23). religion is not an accessory, but the main thing and, from an eternal
perspective, God’s true religion is the only
thing. With the Way of Faith, there is no negotiation, no compromise (Galatians 2:5).
Everybody knows that religion is not a
proper topic of discussion anywhere, any
time. You have your religion, i have mine,
and any attempt at persuasion or comparison is unwelcome.
Except that Christ did not send his people
into the world to make friends and influence people. He sent us to proclaim the
message of eternal salvation, to speak truth to
a world in the power of the father of lies, to
change lives by portraying Christ crucified. We
do not move the ancient landmarks to please
people, but we seek to move people toward the
true and living God. to do that, we preach the
message, “whether it is convenient or not” (2
timothy 4:1-3 Ị Et). or as Marshall
Keeble said, “When they like, and when
they don’t.”
Most of what people think they know
about religion is wrong. And those to whom
the truth has been entrusted seek to set
them right with God.

After the dust had settled
from the recent U.S.
Supreme Court opinion on
the Health Care Act, there
has been much reflection and
debate from your local coffee shops to every media
source in the country. the
focal point being Chief
Justice John roberts and his
out in left field opinion.
despite his protestations to
the contrary, his dictum that
the individual mandate is a
tax and not a penalty ignores
explicit statements from
Congress,
disregards
decades of precedent on this
subject,
turns
judicial
restraint on its head, and now
opens a new floodgate for
federal abuses.
immediately after the opinion was made public, i began
hearing conservatives pushing the idea that Justice
roberts’ opinion was a
stroke of genius. the idea is
that leaving obamacare in
place will ensure obama’s
defeat in the upcoming election. i’m very sure that
Justice roberts’ appalling
disregard of the Constitution
was motivated by his desire
to secure obama’s defeat in
Ị ovember. the bottom line
is this. it matters not whether
this opinion assures obama’s
defeat or secures romney’s
election this Ị ovember. the
most serious concern is that
Loy
Mauch
State Rep.
District 26
Supreme
Court Justices should never
play politics with the
Constitution! if this indeed
was his motivating decision,
then he should be censured
and removed from office as
any other political figure
should be.
Justice roberts’ statement
that “it is not our (the
Supreme Court’s) job to protect the people from the consequences of their political
choices” is shocking to say
the least. this is exactly the
job of the Supreme Court!
our Constitution protects
individuals from a tyrannical
majority. Political choices of
the majority can never violate the God-given rights of
even one person. the
Constitution was written to
protect this principle. Ị ow he
tells us that it is not the Court’s
job to protect the people from the
political choices of the majority.
Anyone that attempts to justify
Justice roberts’ opinion by
claiming that it was a brilliant
political move has completely
missed the point of our entire
system of government.
our Constitution is the only
thing that can prevent our
government from falling into
absolute despotism. in order
for it to function, the
must
be
Constitution
enforced by a Supreme Court
that does not bend to political whims. Constitutional
limits on authority must be
absolute, or they are not limitations at all. Chief Justice
roberts
sacrificed
the
Constitution to political considerations. this is unforgivable. it’s bad enough when
politicians think like politicians with no consideration
of right or wrong. if the
Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court thinks like a politician,
then all is lost.
i thank God that Justices
thomas, Scalia, Kennedy,
and Alito wrote a scathing
dissent. they summarized
the roberts’ opinion very
well: “the fragmentation of
power produced by the structure of our Government is
central to liberty, and when
we destroy it, we place liberty at peril. today’s decision
should have vindicated,
should have taught, this
truth; instead, our judgment
today has disregarded it.”
this Supreme Court opinion has now approved unlimited government upon the
American people. As i’ve
said time and time again to
my constituents: “the more
government you get, the less
liberty you have.” it will
now be up to the electorate to
decide if Lady Liberty lives
or dies. Will we choose
Capitalism or Socialism?
Federalism or despotism?
Madison or Marx?

agreed to raise Bryan Fox’s
salary in accordance with his

law allows schools to drop
those students who may have
registered, but who never
showed up.
