Breindel honored as winner of Elk Expo patch contest
By Becky Polaski
Staff Writer
BENEZETTE – A contest is
held each year to select a photograph that will be turned into the
featured patch at the Pa. Great
Outdoors Elk Expo. While the
photo must be of Pennsylvania
elk, the photographer can hail
from anywhere. However, this
year the winner ended up being
someone from right here in Elk
County.
T. J. Breindel is originally
from Weedville but now resides
in St. Marys, and even though
he is from the area he had not
previously heard about the annual patch contest. When it came
time for entries to be submitted,
his friend Andy Olson, who is the
field director/project wildlife biologist at the Elk Country Visitor
Center, made sure Breindel knew
about it. Breindel had also heard
about it on the internet as well,
and he decided to submit a few
photos.
As luck would have it, an evening shot featuring a silhouette
of a bull and cow elk ended up
winning the Facebook vote and
was chosen to be featured on this
year's patch.
Breindel took the photo last
year at the bottom of Dewey Road
in Benezette.
"It was right before dark
and a lot of the guys had already
packed up their equipment because there wasn't enough light
to shoot anymore," Breindel recalled. "The sun turned bright
colors and he (the bull) came
across the top of the hillside and
it turned out to be a pretty good
picture."
Breindel noted that he has

Controlled substances and prescription
drug-abuse are concerns
throughout our country.
And they are a concern to
Pennsylvania and to its
hospitals, too.
That is why beginning
on Aug. 25, all healthcare
providers in Pennsylvania, including Penn Highlands Healthcare, will be
mandated to use the Prescription Drug Monitoring
Program, PDMP.
Operated by the state
Office of the Attorney
General and under the
responsibility of the state
Department of Health,
the PDMP will collect information via a computer
program on all filled prescriptions for controlled
substances schedule II-V
that are prescribed and
dispensed within the commonwealth.
What are the Schedule II-V drugs? They are,
according to the state,
controlled substances
that have varying degrees
of potential for abuse or
dependence. Drugs and
other substances that
are considered controlled
substances under the
Controlled Substances
Act (CSA) are divided into
five schedules.
Substances are placed

in their respective schedules based on whether
they have a currently
accepted medical use in
treatment in the United
States, their relative
abuse potential and likelihood of causing dependence when abused.
„Schedule II - drugs
with acceptable medical use, but with a high
abuse potential that lead
to dependence (morphine,
methadone, oxycodone).
„Schedule III - drugs
with less abuse potential
and a moderate risk of
abuse potential (aspirin/
codeine combinations, buprenorphine, Buprenex,
Suboxone, Subutex).
„Schedule IV - drugs
with a lower abuse potential (alprazolam, Xanax,
clonazepam, Klonopin, diazepam, Valium, Diastat,
Acudial, Diastat Pediatric, Diazepam Intensol).
„Schedule V - drugs
with less abuse potential
than other schedule drugs
contain limited quantities
of a controlled substance
(Robitussin AC, phenergan with codeine).
This means that prescribers – such as physicians, nurse practitioners
and physician assistants
– and pharmacies will
have access via computer to update a person’s
controlled substance
prescription medication
history. This will alert
medical professionals
to potential dangers for
the patient and will help
them make treatment

decisions.
This same information will be available to
law enforcement and
other regulatory agencies to detect and prevent
fraud, drug abuse and
the possible re-selling of
prescription medications
to others.
Patients have the
right to review and correct the information in
the PDMP once per calendar quarter at no cost.
This is done through the
PDMP website at www.
doh.pa.gov/PDMP.
Forty-nine states,
including Pennsylvania,
have an operational prescription drug monitoring
program or have enacted
legislation to establish
a PDMP and are in the
process of creating one.
Also, specifically at
Penn Highlands Healthcare medical offices, there
are guidelines for treating
patients with Schedule
II-V meds.
Therapies without
medications and non-prescription medications are
always the first choices
for treatments.
If a controlled substance is prescribed,
especially an opiod-based
drug, there are several things that will take
place:
„A treatment goal
will be established and
documented in the patient’s record;
„Therapy will be dis-
continued if there is not
improvement in pain and
function especially there
is risk to patient safety;
„Patients will be
urine drug-tested through
a third-party, Ameritox,
who will send results to
the provider;
„Patients will review
and sign an agreement
regarding controlled substances.
Providers will be prescribing the lowest doses
of controlled substances
that are immediate release first. Then, patients
will be re-evaluated
within one to four weeks.
Once a situation is stable,
patients will be evaluated
every three months.
While using controlled substances, urine
drug tests will be ordered
at least once a year. The
patient is held responsible
for the urine drug monitoring payment. Medicare and Medicaid pay for
a urine drug test 24 times
a year. Most patients will
have no cost unless they
haven’t met a deductible
yet. If any patient has a
question with a bill they
receive, Penn Highlands
Healthcare directs them
to Ameritox customer
support to get the bill
reduced or eliminated.
When a patient has a
urine drug screen and the
prescribed medication is
not present, the healthcare clinician will stop
providing the prescription
to the patient. If the drug
screen shows more than
the prescribed amount,
other prescribed drugs or
marijuana, the patient
will be worked with and
alternative treatment
plans will be discussed.
If illicit drugs other
than marijuana are
found, the patient may be
discharged. Discharged
or not, the patient will be
provided with a schedule
to taper the prescribed
medication over a 30-day
period.
If at any time the
healthcare provider
deems it necessary to
discharge a patient due
to noncompliance with
a controlled substance
contact, the patient will
be given 30 days of acute
care and a schedule to taper controlled substances
over the 30 day period.
Why do all this? ”In
2015, 3,383 Pennsylvanians died of overdoses,”
Megan Devlin-Bussard,
pharmacist and Quality
Program director at Penn
Highlands Healthcare,
said. “This year’s data
suggests even higher
numbers. Each day we
see members of our
community affected by
controlled substances.
Each and every one of us
has felt the impact and
together as a community,
we must do our part to
help assure a better and
safer future for our loved
ones.”

The Hallowed Halls
A Memoir, a
Tribute, a
Lamentation
By Dick Dornisch
Special to The Daily Press
Editor's note: This
is the first of a two-part
series.
Across the road and
down a driveway between
two small unpainted
barns, the fields began.
Long and lush and filled
with growing beans,
cabbage, corn, potatoes,
squash, pumpkins and
lettuces, the summer's
larder.
It thrived on the fertile slopes of Sister's Hill
that today has vanished
under the paving macadam of the Elk County
Catholic High School.
There was a time when
hundreds of young sledders, tobogganers and
skiers swarmed like ants
on the sloops of “Sister's
Hill” from late November
until March. From my
upper-Maurus Street
home through the 30s,
the 40s and the 50s, I
watched the bent figures
of denim-aproned nuns in
big sun bonnets weeding
and hoeing, picking potato bugs and cutworms
from their lettuce and red
beets every summer in
the blistering sunshine of
July and August.
Daily, during my
growing-up years, our
neighborhood was awakened by the raucous,
early-morning cock-adoodling of the many
roosters living in the long
white chicken coops of
the St. Joseph Convent.
At first light little groups
of nuns passed on the
other side of the street
or along the path bordering their fields, past the
ancient clay mine and gigantic beech trees, carved
with hearts and the
initials of several generations of young lovers, all
situated on the way to
the hospital, located just
outside the town limits
on the brand new Johnsonburg Road.
They were always in
twos or threes, some in
their everyday nondescript, shapeless black,
but a few sister nurses
wore white habits. Moving like windup toys,
their feet were barely
visible. It was almost
impossible to believe that
a human form existed
under such a mystic, featureless attire. The convent members had arisen
hours earlier to attend
daily mass before sitting down to a communal
breakfast and preparing
for their various daytime
labors: the laundry, the
bakery and kitchen, the
sewing rooms and sacristies, the stacks of tests
and essays to be read and
corrected, the lessons to
be examined.
Always from the
first, they had been the
colony's teachers, even
in the early cloistered
days of 1852. They had
taught the children of
the settlers in the St.
Marienstadt schools and
in some of the countryside schools of Benzinger
Township in their own
young ladies' academy,
attended by girls from as
far away as Scandinavia
and the Caribbean. After
the late 1800s, when the
Smith-Garb Act chased
them and the crucifixes
out of tax-supported
public schools, they created their own system
and walked every morning and evening between
St. Mary’s Parish, Sacred
Heart Grade Schools and
Central High.
Many in my neighborhood grew up literally in the front yard of
the St. Joseph Convent,
surrounded by dozens of
nuns, who cared for the
sick and injured, tending
elderly ladies and looking
after kids of kindergarten
age. The sisters picked
wild huckleberries by
the hundreds of quarts
on the hillsides above
the Pennsy tracks that
wound their way through
the Silver Creek, Ten
Cent Run, Watertank and
Seventy-One Hollows.
They taught, art, music,
ceramics, baking, filling
the neighborhood with
the delicious aroma of
their bread, doughnuts
and pastries. They tended pens of exotic game
and show birds: Ringnecks, Lady Amhersts,
Golden Pheasants,
Hungarian Partridges:
A community of maiden
ladies existing within
another community and
were for over 15 decades
quite literally the visual
Soul of St. Marystown.
I knew them well,
most of them by name.
By 1938, my mother was
rousting me out of bed
at 5:30 a.m. to stand
shivering while dressing
in front of the flickering blue flames of the
open gas oven door that
sent its spooky glimmers
across the kitchen walls.
Then, I would trudge
across the open field,
sometimes through waist
high snow and around
the back of the darkened chapel where their
big Irish Setter barked,
tearing at his chain and
giving every indication
of wanting to eat me.
(Always they had an
Irish Setter, and they
were all named Red.)
I would enter the dark
server's sacristy where
one tiny candle flickered
where I dressed for six
o'clock mass. Out near
the black form of the
altar, the red sanctuary
candle guttered away,
signaling God's presence
but little else except for
the eerie shadows of tall
plaster saints. Then to
light the candles as the
lights were slowly coming
on, the sisterhood filed
in to take their assigned
pews. Among them would
be the invalided centenarians helped into their
pews by their younger
sisters and always a
few novitiates in their
abbreviated habits, all
prepared to attend to the
daily service offered by
old Father Peter, whose
broad Croatian-Serbian
dialect made listening
to his monthly homily
almost impossible and
put many of the good
nuns quickly to dozing.
He never drove in all
the years he served the
convent but made his
way through blizzard
or downpour from the
priest's house to the Sisters Chapel, a lonely and
quiet man.
There was a great
deal of coming and going around St. Joseph's:
small groups of nuns off
and about to establish
other convents around
the continent; off on
mission to Kane and
Lucinda; off to the Indian
missions of the far away
Dakotas; off throughout
the summer months
to schools around the
country to enhance and
advance their education.
Back in those days,
no nun was ever seen
alone but always in pairs
or trios. If a sister had to
go to town for shoes or
glasses or for an appointment, she always enlisted
a female student to accompany her. Such scenes
were a common, everyday
part of the St. Marys life.
The nuns were in
every way the soul and
spirit of their adopted
community where they
had established the Benedictine Sisterhood Motherhouse during the first
decade of the struggling
little colony.
A while ago when
the closing of the convent became imminent, I
was asked by some local
folks and a couple of St.
Vincent priest friends
to write my recollections and thoughts on
the place I had shared
closely a good bit of my
life. I started a couple of
times but quit, for I realized I was too saddened,
embittered and angry to
tell the story as it ought
to have been told. I felt
disappointment at the
Erie Diocese, the St.
Vincent Arch Abbey and
the community's reluctance to deal honestly
with what the sisterhood
was and what it was not
- and probably most of all
with the entire Benedictine Sisterhood of North
America to whom this
convent was the place to
which the Benedictine
nuns in North America
owed its existence. (I
never bought into the
later substitution of
monastery for its original
name which had served
it well for nearly all of its
years.)
A couple of decades
ago, it became apparent that western monasticism, which had
been founded some 15
centuries earlier by St
Benedict and his sister
Scholastica, was entering
its old age. Buffeted by
the faltering of organized
religion and rampant
worldwide secularism, it
was reported by national
news that the medial age
of the nuns in United
States was high in the
60s. At the time, I talked
to a few cronies up at St.
Joseph's and expressed
that it was truly regrettable that in all the centuries of sisterhoods, no
one had ever written the
great novel of convent life
and that now with the
curtain coming down it
would most likely never
be done. (Over the years I
had often remarked that
some of the best friends
I ever had, and some my
worst enemies all had
lived within those quiet
walls.)
Who were these
slightly mysterious figures that made up such
a daily presence in the
little community?

Charter denies sending mailer on drug bust at public school
In response to comments, the school said it
has reached its enrollment goal and doesn't
need more students.
Kelly Bauer, the charter school's board president, said on Facebook
that its attorney was investigating.
The state's auditor

content of the advertising.
"I will also refer this
matter for investigation
by the Internal Revenue
Service, which has strict
guidelines for charter
school advertising," said
Auditor General Eugene
DePasquale. He said he
would ask a number of
state and federal agencies
to look into the mailer,
including the U.S. Postal
Inspection Service; U.S.
Department of Justice;
U.S. Department of Education; Pennsylvania Department of Education;
and the state Office of Attorney General."
The school's attorney,
Dan Fennick, said the
board is "appalled by the
mailer" and echoed sentiments that it wasn't authorized by the school.

Horsing around in
Ridgway and other
Bits & Pieces…
Big Maple Farm’s Natural Therapies,
Inc. Grand Opening
“This is a place where animals are not just animals,” said
Amanda McMinn-Balon. Big Maple Farm’s Natural Therapies,
Inc. invited some of the locals and members of the Ridgway
Area Chamber to attend their official ribbon cutting on Aug. 12.
Amanda’s dream of a farm that could make a difference in the
lives of the differently-abled folks and those with special needs
has been realized. I drove out to the countryside and found this
place at 877 Long Level Rd., near Ridgway.
My friend Ron McMinn was on hand and he told me this ranch
is 116 years old. Everyone enjoyed a nice tour of the ranch, saw
some horses and met the folks that support Amanda and her
love for therapeutic riding. She told us all about the facility,
and how they are serving individuals with disabilities through
Harlan J. Beagley
therapeutic horseback riding.

“Our grand opening was so very special. We cannot pull things
off without those who support this program. I was personally
amazed at all those who came and asked questions and showed an interest. The
ribbon is officially cut and we are joining Elk County one step at a time as a new
business. I will be forever grateful and humbled as we continue to move forward,”
explained Amanda as she reflected on the day.
From what I found and researched, “Therapeutic riding is an equine-assisted
activity for the purpose of contributing positively to the cognitive,
physical, emotional and social wellbeing of individuals with special
needs. Therapeutic riding provides
benefits in the areas of health, education, sport and recreation and leisure. Throughout the world, there
are thousands of individuals with
special needs who experience the
rewarding benefits of horseback riding. A disability does not have to
limit a person from riding horses.
In fact, experiencing the motion of
a horse can be very therapeutic.
Because horseback riding rhythmically moves the rider’s body in
a manner similar to a human gait,
riders with physical disabilities often show improvement in flexibility,
balance and muscle strength. In addition to the therapeutic benefits,
horseback riding also provides recreational opportunities for individuals with disabilities to enjoy the outdoors,” thoughtfully explained by
the Thorncroft Equestrian Center
[Friends of Amanda over in Philly.]
Local people and a horse [Shawna, an 11-year-old quarter horse] share a happy
moment as they cut the ribbon for Big Maple Farm’s Natural Therapies, Inc.
“We are so pleased to have a new business in Ridgway, the Chamber is here to
welcome you,” said Ridgway Area Chamber President John Blauser. Others from
the chamber echoed the remarks.
Today in History
Today is Tuesday, Aug.
23, the 236th day of 2016.
There are 130 days left in
the year.
Today's Highlight in
History:
On Aug. 23, 1926, legendary silent film star
Rudolph Valentino died in
New York at age 31.
On this date:
In 1305, Scottish rebel
leader Sir William Wallace
was executed by the English for treason.
In 1775, Britain's King
George III proclaimed
the American colonies to
be in a state of "open and
avowed rebellion."
In 1858, "Ten Nights in a
Bar-room," a play by Timothy Shay Arthur about the
perils of alcohol, opened in
New York.
In 1913, Copenhagen's
Little Mermaid statue, inspired by the Hans Christian Andersen story, was
unveiled in the harbor of
the Danish capital.
In 1914, Japan declared
war against Germany in
World War I.
In 1927, amid protests,
Italian-born
anarchists
Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti were executed in Boston for the murders of two men during a
1920 robbery.
In 1939, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union
agreed to a non-aggression
treaty, the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, in Moscow.
In
1944,
Romanian
Prime Minister Ion Antonescu was dismissed by
King Michael, paving the
way for Romania to abandon the Axis in favor of the
Allies.
In 1960, Broadway librettist Oscar Hammerstein (HAM'-ur-STYN') II,
65, died in Doylestown,
Pennsylvania.
In 1973, a bank robberyturned-hostage-taking began in Stockholm, Sweden;
the four hostages ended
up empathizing with their
captors, a psychological
condition now referred to
as "Stockholm Syndrome."
In 1982, Lebanon's parliament elected Christian
militia leader Bashir Ge-
mayel president. (However, Gemayel was assassinated some three weeks
later.)
In 1989, in a case that
inflamed racial tensions in
New York, Yusuf Hawkins,
a 16-year-old black teen,
was shot dead after he and
his friends were confronted
by a group of white youths
in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn. (Gunman
Joey Fama was convicted
of second-degree murder
and sentenced to life in
prison; he will be eligible
for parole in 2022.)
Ten years ago: A previously unknown militant
group released the first
video of two Fox News
journalists who'd been kidnapped in Gaza. (Reporter
Steve Centanni and cameraman Olaf Wiig were
later freed.) The Citadel
released the results of a
survey in which almost 20
percent of female cadets
reported being sexually assaulted since enrolling at
the South Carolina military college. Jazz trumpeter Maynard Ferguson died
in Ventura, California, at
age 78.
Five years ago: A pair
of judges in New York
put an end to the sensational sexual assault
case against Dominique
Strauss-Kahn,
setting
him free after prosecutors
questioned the credibility
of the hotel housekeeper
who'd accused the French
diplomat. A magnitude
5.8 earthquake centered
near Mineral, Virginia,
the strongest on the East
Coast since 1944, caused
cracks in the Washington
Monument and damaged
Washington National Cathedral.
One year ago: Islamic
State militants destroyed
a temple at ancient ruins
of Palmyra in Syria, realizing the worst fears of
archaeologists had for the
fate of the 2,000-year-old
Roman-era city after the
extremists seized it and
beheaded a local scholar.
The United Arab Emirates
said its military had freed
a British hostage, Rob-
ert Douglas Semple, who
was kidnapped 18 months
earlier ago by al-Qaida
in Yemen. Ohio State became the first unanimous
preseason No. 1 in The
Associated Press college
football poll. Roger Federer remained perfect in
Cincinnati finals, winning
an unprecedented seventh
championship, 7-6 (1),
6-3, while denying Novak
Djokovic the one title that
had always eluded him.

On the national front
After a lengthy slide,
gas prices rise nearing the
end of the summer driving season. The national
average price for regular
unleaded is $2.16 per gallon, which is four cents
more than one week ago,
but is still the lowest price
for this date since 2004.
While pump prices
in 42 states have moved
higher over the past
week, domestic gasoline
supplies remain high and
oil prices remain relatively lower compared to
recent years, meaning
pump prices are likely
to remain cheap through
the rest of the summer
and into the fall. Prices
could even dip back below
$2.00 per gallon once the
summer driving season is
complete and as many regions are allowed to transition to selling cheaperto-produce winter-blend
gasoline. Also influencing
gasoline prices have been
refinery issues that have
exacerbated price increases in areas supplied by
these facilities.
Pump prices have
been driven by crude oil
prices surging more than
20 percent this month and
refinery issues impacting production in some
regions. Higher crude oil
prices have come as the
U.S. dollar has weakened
and the Organization of
the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is
reportedly
considering
production cuts to bolster
prices. West Texas Intermediate crude oil is priced
in U.S. dollars. As the U.S.
dollar weakens, crude oil
becomes relatively less
expensive for those holding foreign currencies,
which increases demand
and puts upward pressure
on oil prices. This upward
momentum has been further supported by reports
that OPEC members will
again consider an agreement that would limit
production in the face of
the global glut of crude
oil supplies that has more
than halved prices in recent years. At the close of
Friday’s formal trading
session on the NYMEX
WTI was up 30 cents to
settle at $48.52 per barrel.

Uh, Oh, Canada: 1,500
people on rafts returned
to Michigan
PORT HURON, Mich.
(AP) — Canadian authorities stopped an invasion:
1,500 people on inflatable
rafts and boats that drifted across the border from
Michigan during high
winds on the St. Clair
River.
The 7.5-mile Port Huron Float Down is an annual event on the river
that divides Michigan
from Ontario, Canada.
But the winds turned it
into an international incident Sunday.
"The event has no official organizer and poses
significant and unusual
hazards given the fastmoving current, large
number of participants,
lack of life jackets, and
as was the case this year,
challenging weather conditions," the Sarnia, Ontario, Police Service said
on its website.
Police said it took
hours for a bus service,
Sarnia Transit, to transport approximately 1,500
U.S. citizens back to
Michigan.
"They were unprepared to be stranded anywhere," Staff Sgt. Scott
Clarke told the Times
Herald.
"It was a bit of a nightmare, but we got through
it," he said. "There were
long waits and long lines.
They were cold and wet,
but they all made it home."
The event started at
Port Huron's Lighthouse
Beach and was supposed
to end at Chrysler Beach
in Marysville.
Sarnia city workers
spent several hours Monday picking up beer cans,
coolers, rafts — even picnic tables — that washed
up on the Canadian shore,
said spokeswoman Katarina Ovens.
"I guess they were on
the rafts," she said of the
picnic tables.

New series to feature coverage from 1916 infantile paralysis epidemic
By Becky Polaski
Staff Writer
Throughout the summer of 1916, rumblings of
a disease called infantile
paralysis began to reach
St. Marys. Occasionally
a news item related to
the disease would appear
in the pages of The Daily
Press, but for the most
part it had little impact on
area residents’ lives until
late August.
While it was commonly referred to as infantile
paralysis at the time,
the disease was formally
called poliomyelitis, and
today it is known as polio.
According to the World
Health
Organization
(WHO), “Polio is a highly
infectious disease caused
by a virus. It invades the
nervous system, and can
cause total paralysis in a
matter of hours. The virus
is transmitted by personto-person spread mainly
through the faecal-oral
route or, less frequently,
by a common vehicle (for
example,
contaminated
water or food) and multiplies in the intestine. Initial symptoms are fever,
fatigue, headache, vomiting, stiffness of the neck
and pain in the limbs. One
in 200 infections leads
to irreversible paralysis (usually in the legs).
Among those paralysed,
5 percent to 10 percent
die when their breathing
muscles become immobilized.”
Those most at risk for
contracting the disease
are now known to be children age five and under,
but in 1916 restrictions
were applied to anyone
age 16 and under.
There is no cure for
polio, though today it can
be prevented by a vaccine.
-Wednesday, Aug. 23,
1916
„A most stringent
vigilance is kept by the
health officers at Bradford
over children under 16
years of age coming from
New York State in the
fight against the spread
of infantile paralysis. The
authorities are getting the
hearty cooperation of the
Pennsylvania and Erie
railroads and the W. N. Y.
traction company but the
B. R. & P. has not shown
a disposition to conform to
the wishes of the Pennsylvania authorities and as a
result many of its patrons
have been forced to undergo irritating delays and
inconveniences.
Sunday afternoon a
Pennsylvania excursion
from Rochester, N.Y. arrived in Bradford. H. G.
Corbett, the company’s
agent, had wired to Rochester explaining the situation in this city. As a
result, three men were
stationed at the depot and
informed all excursionists
of the fact that no children
under 16 years without
health certificates could
enter the state. The train,
when it left Rochester contained seven coaches and
Conductor Metcalf and
Trainmen Burr and Broken explained to the passengers with children that
they could visit Rocky City
by disembarking at Olean.
At the later city, the Pennsylvania situation was
again explained and resulted in 355 passengers
getting off at Olean. The
balance of the excursionists were taken in three
coaches to Bradford. Special Health Officer O. H.
Miller boarded the train
at Riverhurst and was unable to find a single child
under the prescribed age.
Several persons have
arrived here with certificates issued by a C. D.
Brusso, who is a civil ser-
vice examiner stationed
in the Exchange Depot in
Buffalo. These certificates
are not good.
A number of persons,
who have been taken off
trains here and returned
to the point from which
they started, have announced their intention of
instituting suits against
the railroad company.

„Harrisburg, Aug. 23
– Dr. Samuel G. Dixon,
State Commissioner of
Health, today discussed
with A. D. Glenn, deputy
superintendent of public instruction, questions
connected with postponement of opening of schools
because of prevalence of
infantile paralysis. Some
rural schools have already
been opened. No decision
was reached. During the
next few days Dr. Dixon
will hold further conferences and will likely visit
Pittsburgh.
Today’s reports ran
the total number of cases
since July 1 up to 267,
with 338 of the cases being in Philadelphia and
145 deaths in the state.
New cases were reported
today
outside
Philadelphia as follows:
Filnton, New Castle, Lynnwood, Auburn, South
Langhorne,
Pittston,
Shenandoah, Shamokin,
and Wilkes-Barre, and
Tredyffrin
Township,
Chester

and
Plymouth Township, Luzerne County.
„The public schools of
our city will open Monday,
Sept. 4, Labor Day, for a
half day session. Examinations for those who are
to take them will begin
Tuesday, Aug. 29 at 9 a.m.
Friday, Aug. 25, 1916
„Harrisburg, Aug. 24
– State Health Commissioner Samuel G. Dixon,
following a careful study
of the infantile paralysis
situation in this state,
tonight decided that all
schools in Pennsylvania
shall be closed until Monday, Sept. 18. The following letter was sent to all
city, borough, and county
school superintendents in
the state and to heads of
parochial schools:
“The State Department of Health of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has decided that
all schools, public, private,
and parochial, in this state
be closed until Monday,
Sept. 18, 1916, with possible readjustments then we
reference to geographical
position, age, and attendance of resident pupils.”
Dr. Dixon said tonight that the words “all
schools” in the order includes all Sunday schools
in the state and beginning
next Sunday and continuing until Sept. 18, every
Sunday school in the state
will have to remain closed.
Commenting on the
order to close the schools
the health commissioner
said that he and his advisory board felt it would
be far wiser to cut into the
school term at this end of
the year than to close them
later when it was found
the disease was making
inroads among the children of the commonwealth
because of their school associations.
Dr. Dixon pointed out
that the season of the year
when the health department records who that
infantile paralysis makes
the most gains is just at
hand. “Our past experience,” said the commissioner, “teaches us that
the disease makes the
greatest gains during the
latter part of August and
September and we have
felt it would be very unwise to subject the children of the state to possible changes of contracting
the disease through permitting them to associate
in school rooms, no matter
how well they may be ventilated and provided with
disease preventing equipment.”
The health commissioner pointed out that
many people are now going on their vacations or
returning from them and
that it is practically impossible to enforce strict
supervision of the means
of transportation because
of the thousands of motor
cars used by vacationists.
He said it is not so difficult
to supervise the railroads,
ferries and other public
service
transportation,
but declared the motor car
is “an outlaw,” hard to supervise properly.
The order will effect
colleges and academies as
well as other schools, said
the commissioner, but he
pointed out that most of
these institutions do not
open their doors until after the date set in the order.
Dr. Dixon also said
that steps will be taken to
close “objectionable movies,” such as are poorly
ventilated, overcrowded,
dirty and otherwise conductive to the spread of
disease.
“We feel a great responsibility in closing
the educational facilities
for even a short time,” he
said, “but the advisory

A little later in September, the district will
be hosting a river cleanup
event.
Last year, approximately 60 students from
the Elk County Catholic
High School, the Ridgway
Area High School and
the St. Marys Area High
School joined district officials to canoe along the
Clarion River and clean
up trash.
This year's cleanup
will take place between
Sept. 8 and Sept. 9.
On Sept. 8, district officials will go out and pick
up larger pieces of trash
prior to being joined by
the students on Sept. 9.

Turning to recent
events, the district had

and the recent Elk County Fair.
At the Elk Expo, district officials put on an

have on a river's environment.
In addition to presenting updates on the upcoming events and recently
completed events, the
district also discussed the
progress on several projects that were approved
for funding through the
district's dirt and gravel
road project fund.
According to Resource
Conservation Technician
Kate Yetzer, Jay Township officials are currently working on four projects, including a project
on Spring Run Road.
The four projects are
expected to be completed
prior to the end of the
month.
In Horton Township,
officials have postponed
a project on Oyster Run
Road so that township officials can review the effect that logging will have
on the road.
Officials did not want
to do a project only to
have it torn up by future
logging activities.
During
Monday's
meeting, the district's
board of directors also
accepted money through
yearly sources, including
Act 13 money, to help pay
for district salaries and
other miscellaneous expenses.
board feels with me that
the life and health of the
children of the state is of
infinite more value than
the few week which will be
lost because of the order.
We feel further that it will
be comparatively easy for
the school boards to add a
little time to the other end
of the school term when
we help to have the disease eradicated.”
Dr. Dixon said the
question of deciding what
schools may not be opened
on Sept. 1 will be largely
determined by the situation in the various localities of the state on that
date. He said that dormitory students who are
residents of various institutions will be kept under careful supervision in
all instances where they
come from affected districts.
„The borough schools
will not open until Monday, Sept. 18, on account
of the epidemic of Infantile Paralysis prevailing throughout the state.
The examinations will be
deferred until Tuesday
before the opening of the
school.

Theft at bridge
construction site
HORTON TWP. – The
Ridgway-based State Police report investigating an
incident of theft at a bridge
located on state Route 219,
close to the intersection
with Shawmut Road.
According to police,
the incident occurred as
unknown actor(s) stole a
solar panel and eight Tro-
jan T-105 six-volt batteries
off a traffic light set up for
construction on the bridge.
The estimated total
value of the stolen items is
$1,800.
The investigation is
ongoing; if anyone has any
information regarding this
incident, please contact
PSP Ridgway.
AAA reminds
motorists to slow
down in school zones
AAA reminds motorists to slow down in school
zones
The end of summer
means millions of children
will be back to school.
AAA East Central reminds drivers to be extra
cautious as school zones
become more active, and
be aware of school bus
safety. According to the
AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, a pedestrian
struck by vehicle traveling at 20 mph is about
two-thirds less likely to
be killed as compared to a
pedestrian struck by a vehicle traveling at 30 mph.
“School zone speed
limits are in place to save
lives,” says Terri Rae Anthony, AAA East Central
Safety Advisor. “As families prepare for the upcoming school year, we
encourage parents to talk
about the importance of
school zone safety with
their children and teen
drivers,” she added.
AAA’s School’s Open –
Drive Carefully campaign
was launched nationally
in 1946 to help reduce the
number of school-related
pedestrian injuries and
fatalities. The campaign
kicks off each fall and
continues throughout the
school year to remind motorists to watch out for
children as they travel to
and from school. In addition to slowing down, AAA
offers the following advice
for motorists to keep children safe as they navigate
their way through school
zones:
„Ditch
distractions.
Research
shows
that
taking your eyes off the
road for just two seconds
doubles your chances of
crashing.
„Stay
alert. Don t
rush into and out of driveways. Expect pedestrians
on the sidewalk, especially around schools and in
neighborhoods.
„Stop at stop signs.
It sounds obvious, but research shows that more
than one third of drivers
roll through stop signs in
school zones or neighborhoods.
„Watch for bikes. Children on bicycles are often
unpredictable; expect the
unexpected.
„Brake for buses. It
may be tempting to drive
around a stopped school
bus, but not only is it dangerous, it s against the
law.
„Plan ahead. Leave
early for your destination
and build in extra time
for congestion. If possible,
modify your route to avoid
school zones.
„Look for AAA School
Safety Patrollers. With
more than 600,000 AAA
School Safety Patrollers
at 31,000 schools across
the country, they re a sure
sign you re approaching a
school zone.

Did you know:
been into photography for
around seven years and
uses mostly Canon products.
"I try to get out as
much as I can, especially
in the fall," Breindel said.
He added that some
of his lenses are handme-downs from his father,
while others he acquired
on his own.
"That seems to be a
good array that does the
trick," he said.
On Saturday afternoon during the Pa. Great
Outdoors Elk Expo at the
Elk Country Visitor Center in Benezette, Breindel
was presented with a large
version of his winning
photo as well as a copy of
this year's expo patch.
He indicated that he
definitely plans to enter
the contest again in the
future, and he was happy
to win this year on his first
try.
"It was pretty exciting," Breindel said. "I was
glad to see it win. It looks
good too."
Breindel added that
it will not be long before
he is out trying to capture
new images for his next
entry.
"I'll definitely be out
here soon hopefully snapping some more photos,"
he said.

Fister, Hernandez lead Astros to 3-1 win over Pirates
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Doug
Fister pitched seven scoreless
innings, Teoscar Hernandez hit
a two-run homer and the Houston Astros beat the Pittsburgh
Pirates 3-1 on Monday night.
Hernandez connected off
fellow rookie Jameson Taillon
(3-3) in the fifth inning after
A.J. Reed’s leadoff walk. It was
the third home run for Hernandez, who was called up from
Triple-A Fresno on Aug. 12 to
make his major league debut.
Alex Bregman, another Astros rookie, hit his fourth homer
in the ninth inning off Neftali
Feliz.
Houston won its fourth
straight game and Pittsburgh
lost its fourth in a row. Both
teams are competing for wildcard spots.
Fister struck out six, walked
one and retired 11 of the first 12
batters. He had allowed nine
runs and 11 hits over nine innings in his previous two starts.
Ken Giles got his fourth
save despite allowing David Freese’s RBI single in the
ninth. Freese was thrown out
at second base when he tried
to advance on an overthrow by
first baseman Marwin Gonzalez
to end the game.
Taillon made his seventh
consecutive quality start since
being activated from the disabled list July 19. He pitched
eight innings, allowing two runs
and four hits with a career-high
eight strikeouts.
Gregory Polanco had a pair
of doubles and scored Pittsburgh’s lone run.
Orioles 4, Nationals 3
BALTIMORE (AP) — Mark
Trumbo hit his major leagueleading 38th home run, Jonathan Schoop also went deep and
the Baltimore Orioles beat the
Washington Nationals 4-3 Monday night in a matchup between
neighboring contenders.
Rookie Dylan Bundy (7-4)
pitched six innings of three-hit
ball for the Orioles, who had
lost five of their previous six
games â all at home. The victory lifted Baltimore within two
games of first-place Toronto in
the AL East.
Bundy gave up two runs,
walked four and struck out
four. He’s 5-3 with a 3.56 ERA
in eight games since joining the
starting rotation on July 17.
Zach Britton worked a perfect ninth to earn his 38th save
in 38 tries. The left-hander has
not allowed an earned run in 43
games since May 5.
The Orioles did all their
scoring against A.J. Cole (0-1)
in his season debut. Cole was
recalled from Triple-A Syracuse
to replace scheduled starter
Stephen Strasburg, who was
placed on the 15-day disabled
list with right elbow soreness.
Pitching in his fourth major league game and making
his second start, Cole allowed
five hits in seven innings. The
right-hander struck out eight
and walked two.
Anthony Rendon and Danny Espinosa homered for the
NL East-leading Nationals and
Daniel Murphy had his 48th
multihit game.
It was the first of four successive games between the
teams, two at Camden Yards
and two at Nationals Park. The
stadiums are 38 miles apart on
MD-295.
The Nationals jumped on
top in the first inning when
Murphy singled for his 90th
RBI.
Schoop tied it with his 20th
homer in the third inning. After
Rendon connected in the fourth,
Baltimore took a 4-2 lead in the
bottom half.
Doubles by Manny Machado and Chris Davis produced a
run and Trumbo followed with a
drive that soared far beyond the
left-field wall.
Espinosa connected off
Mychal Givens in the seventh.
Washington got runners to second and third with two outs in
the eighth before All-Star reliever Brad Brach struck out
Ryan Zimmerman.

set the tone for a great
start to our tennis season,” said ECCHS coach
Pete Meier.
“We opened against
the Lady Beavers from DuBois in a well-played and
highly enjoyable match.
DuBois once again has a
very talented squad and
Jenna Kirk always does a
great job getting her teams
ready to play. We used an
expanded format for this

“Both teams lost top
players to graduation and
used today’s match to begin the task of establishing
a lineup. Maria Hoh and
Marissa Toretti battled
at first singles with both
players serving well and
hitting some great shots.
Marissa is one of the top
players in District 9 while
Maria played in the #1
spot for the first time in
her career. Both girls provided the fans with some
wonderful tennis. Emily

Price shines, Red Sox beat
Rays to move into 1st place tie
ST. PETERSBURG,
Fla. (AP) — David Price
limited his old team to
two hits in eight scoreless innings, helping the
Boston Red Sox beat the
Tampa Bay Rays 6-2 on
Monday night to move
into a tie for first place in
the AL East.
Price (12-8) walked
two, struck out eight and
didn’t allow a runner past
first base while extending Tampa Bay’s scoring
drought against Boston
to 25 innings dating to
a series at Fenway Park
before the All-Star break.
Evan Longoria stopped
the streak with a two-run
homer off Matt Barnes in
the ninth.
Boston’s Andrew Benintendi drove in a run
with a fourth-inning sacrifice fly. Benintendi also
kept Price’s bid for a shutout alive by denying Steven Souza Jr. what would
have been a two-run
homer with an eighthinning catch that nearly
sent him tumbling over a
short wall in the left-field
corner.
The victory was the
ninth in 11 games for the
Red Sox and lifted them
into a tie with Toronto,
which was idle Monday.
Chris Young returned
from a two-month stay on
the disabled list to drive
in a run with a double off
Blake Snell (4-6), Hanley
Ramirez had a sacrifice
fly in the seventh and
Xander Bogaerts added a
two-run homer off Danny
Farquhar in the ninth.
Price,
who
also
pitched eight scoreless
innings against his former team during a 4-0
victory in Boston on July
10, won for the first time
as a visitor in four decisions at Tropicana Field.
Benintendi
started
the game in center field.
He moved to left after
Young was removed for
pinch-runner
Jackie
Bradley Jr. in the eighth.
The maneuvering looked
like a stroke of genius
when Benintendi chased
down Souza’s fly ball
in the corner and made
a running catch before
nearly flipping over the
wall.
Snell, who got his first
big league win against
the Red Sox on June 27,
threw 94 pitches and allowed four hits and five
walks in 3 2/3 innings,
yet Boston was only able
to build a 2-0 lead against
the 23-year-old rookie.

Bowling League
Lee Foster Memorial 5-Mile
Run set for Saturday, Sept. 10
This year marks the
32nd annual Lee Foster
Memorial Five-Mile Run.
The race itself originated
37 years ago, making this
event very special for area
runners, spectators and
race organizers.
The race originated
on Sept. 8, 1979, as the
First Annual Founders
Day 10K Run. Lee was
very instrumental in the
organizing of this race as
well as taking part in the
course layout. In 1983,
the race was changed to
a five-mile course. When
the Bavarian Festival
was organized, the name
was changed to the Bavarian Festival Run. The
race held on Sept. 8, 1984
was the last race that Lee
Foster competed in before
his death.
Sept. 14 will be the
32nd anniversary of the
passing of Lee. He was a
man with many interests;
music, art, poetry, movies,
bicycling, weight lifting,
coaching, teaching, the
list goes on, but his great-
est passion was running.
It was an everyday part of
his life, no matter what.
Through these interests
Lee made many friends
who idolized him as a
great person. His strong
influence is evident with
the continued running
and success of this event
over the years. Since the
mid-1980’s the Elk County Striders have been the
organizers of this race.
Lee was involved with
the Striders and was the

going to show them that

Butler anticipates a
significant jump from Dupree in his second season.
“I expect (Dupree) to
be in the upper echelon of
outside linebackers in the
league,” Butler said. “He’s
got work to do, but I think
he can do that.”
Dupree
has
been
nursing a sore groin during training camp, but he
expects to be ready when
the games count. Dupree
focused on his conditioning in the offseason, shedding 20 pounds from his
6-foot-4 frame to weigh
closer to 250 pounds now.
“That will help,” Dupree said. “I feel like I just
wanted to be light for the
conditioning aspect, so I
can play a lot more plays.
You can always keep getting in better shape from
a conditioning aspect. Being heavy, I felt like I got
tired more.”
He also worked on
his pass-rushing moves.
Dupree primarily relied
on his speed at Kentucky
where his 23.5 sacks
rank second in school history. Dupree still believes
speed is his best asset, but
he spent time working on
counter moves and improving his hands.
That’s why Dupree
took up boxing while
training in Atlanta during
the offseason.
“Boxing is a great way
to improve hand speed,”
Dupree said. “You always
worry about hand speed
and power. It’s a big part
of my game, so I needed
that.”
Dupree started his
rookie season strong with
four sacks in his first
eight games. He became
the first NFL player since
2013 to record sacks in
each of his first two NFL
games and finished with
the third-most by a Steelers’ rookie since LaMarr
Woodley in 2007.
But Dupree struggled
after earning his first
career start in Week 11
at Seattle. Dupree, who
played in all 16 games
and started five, finished
the final 10 games, including the playoffs, without a
sack.
Dupree admitted that
he felt like he hit a rookie
wall. Butler saw it, too.
“A lot of times, if you’re
a rookie, at the most you
play 12 or 13 games,” But-
Alabama keeps rolling: Tide is
No. 1 in AP preseason Top 25
By Ralph D. Russo
AP College Football Writer
In a way, the 2016
season will pick up where
2015 left off: Alabama is
No. 1 and Clemson is 2.
The defending national champion Crimson
Tide is the No. 1 team in
The Associated Press preseason Top 25 for the fifth
time overall and third time
under coach Nick Saban.
The Tide received 33
of 61 first-place votes from
the media panel and 1,469
points in the poll released
Sunday. No. 2 Clemson,
which lost a thrilling College Football Playoff championship game to Alabama
in January, received 16
first-place votes and 1,443
points. This is the first
time since 1992 that the
teams that ended the previous season at Nos. 1 and
2 in the AP poll began the
next season in the same
spots. Miami and Washington did it that season.
Oklahoma is No. 3 in
the preseason poll and
received four first-place
votes. No. 4 Florida State
had five first-place votes.
No. 5 LSU, No. 6 Ohio
State and No. 7 Michigan
all received one first-place
vote. A year after Ohio
State became the first
unanimous preseason No.
1 in the history of the AP
poll, seven teams received
first-place votes, the most
in the preseason since
1998.
Stanford is No. 8, followed by No. 9 Tennessee
and No. 10 Notre Dame.
Alabama has won an
unprecedented four national championships in
the last seven seasons, but
none has come when the
Tide started No. 1 (2010
and 2013). That’s one of a
couple of trends the Tide
will be trying to buck this
season. The last preseason
No. 1 to win the national
championship was Southern California in 2004. Alabama is the fourth straight
defending champ to start
the next season No. 1.
“It’s basically human
condition to get satisfied
with success,” said the
64-year-old Saban, who
is 105-18 at Alabama.
“There’s a lot of books
written on how to be successful. There’s not a lot
of books written on how to
stay successful.”
The Tide need to replace Heisman Trophy
winner Derrick Henry
and defensive All-Americans Reggie Ragland and
A’Shawn Robinson and
will be breaking in a new
quarterback, but the next
wave of four- and five-star
recruits is ready to step up.
In Calvin Ridley, Alabama
has one of the best receivers in the country, and
linebacker Reuben Foster
and pass rusher Tim Williams will anchor another
potentially dominant defense.
Clemson returns quarterback Deshaun Watson,
a Heisman finalist whose
2016 campaign essentially
started with a magnificent performance against
Alabama in the championship game, and nine other
offensive starters. The Tigers face tough opposition
in their own division with
Florida State.
The Tigers and Seminoles give the Atlantic
Coast Conference two top
five teams in the preseason
poll for the first time in the
history of the conference.
___
POLL POINTS
Streaks
— This is the eighth
straight year the Tide have
been ranked in the preseason top five, matching
the second-longest streak
since the preseason poll

Pirates give infielder Freese 2-year, $11 million contract
PITTSBURGH
(AP)
— Pittsburgh Pirates infielder David Freese has
signed a two-year, $11 million contract that takes
him through the 2018 season.
Under the deal announced Monday, Freese
will make $6.25 million in
2017 and $4.25 million in
2018. There’s a $6 million
club option for 2019 or a
$500,000 buyout.
Freese said: “It’s always good to be wanted
and the Pirates made that
clear when they offered
the extension.”
The 33-year-old signed
a one-year, $3 million contract as a free agent in
March and is hitting .276
with 12 home runs and 49
RBIs in 107 games. The
eight-year veteran has
made 58 starts at third
base and 26 at first base.
Freese could have become eligible for free agency again after the World
Series.

Steelers’ LB Dupree primed
for breakout second season
PITTSBURGH (AP)
— Pittsburgh Steelers’
linebacker Bud Dupree
hopes he’s setting himself
up for a breakout second
season.
Dupree, the team’s
first-round draft pick in
2015, admittedly hit a
wall during his rookie
year, but he’s working to
change that this season.
Not only does Dupree
have a better understanding of the Steeler defense,
he also dropped some
weight and worked on
techniques to improve his
pass-rushing abilities.
“I just feel like I’m way
ahead of the curve than I
was last year,” Dupree
said. “It’s just being more
confident on the field.”
The Steelers used a
rotation at outside linebacker last season between Dupree, 2013 firstround pick Jarvis Jones,
Arthur Moats and 2008
Defensive Player of the
Year James Harrison. Defensive coordinator Keith
Butler hasn’t said if the
rotation will continue this
season. Dupree is trying
to make the decision easier.
“I’m going to work
for it,” Dupree said. “I’m
ings appear.
Freese broke into the
major leagues in 2009
with his hometown St.
Louis Cardinals and was
the NLCS and World Series MVP in 2011. He was
traded to the Los Angeles
Angels after the 2013 season and played with them
for two seasons.

CINCINNATI (AP) —
Adrian Gonzalez hit three of
the Dodgers’ seven homers —
driving in a career-high eight
runs — and rookie Corey Seager had a noteworthy homer
as well.
The NL West leaders enjoyed their biggest home run
splurge in 10 years. They’ve

against Cincinnati.
Gonzalez started it with a
three-run shot in the first inning off Homer Bailey (2-2),
who had his worst showing
since returning from Tommy
John surgery. The first baseman also had a solo shot in
the fifth, when the Dodgers
connected four times overall.
Gonzalez’s three-run shot
in the seventh tied his career
high for homers.
Joey Votto singled home a
run off reliever Jesse Chavez
(1-0), one of his four RBIs.

AG: 2 say alibi witness in 'Serial' case said she would lie
ANNAPOLIS,
Md.
(AP) — An alibi witness for
a man whose murder conviction was re-examined in
the popular "Serial" podcast told two classmates
more than 20 years ago she
would lie to help him, the
Maryland attorney general's office wrote in court
filings Monday.
Officials wrote that
two sisters who were classmates of the witness at
Woodlawn High School
approached the attorney
general's office this sum-
mer, after a judge ordered
a new trial for Adnan Syed.
The sisters gave sworn
statements saying they got
into a 1999 argument with
the witness, Asia McClain,
who has said she saw Syed
at the Woodlawn library
about the same time Hae
Min Lee was murdered
and buried in a shallow
grave in a Baltimore park
that year.
Syed was convicted
in 2000 of murdering Lee,
his former high school girlfriend. He was sentenced
to life in prison.
One of the classmates
sent an unsolicited email
to the attorney general's
office on July 7, a week after the judge ordered the
new trial. The woman, who
is not identified in court
papers, wrote she initially
planned to stay out of the
case, because she didn't
think Syed would be granted a new trial. But she decided to reach out after the
judge's decision.
"I very much remember, as does (my sister)
having a conversation
with Asia in our co op class
about Asia saying she believed so much in Adnan's
innocence she would make
up a lie to prove he couldn't
have done it," she wrote in
the email.
The attorney general's
office is asking that the
sisters' affidavits be used
in court if McClain's alibi
claim is introduced.
"Courts operate under
the comfortable assumption that a person ordinarily would not be willing
to lie to assist someone
charged with murder," the
attorney general's office
wrote. "Two witnesses who
were previously unknown
to the state have now come
forward and affirmed that
this assumption does not
apply in the case of Asia
McClain. To correct that
assumption prior to appellate review is in the interests of justice."
In his ruling this summer for a new trial, nowretired Baltimore Circuit
Judge Martin Welch said
he disagreed that Syed's
lawyer erred when she
failed to contact McClain.
He ruled that Syed's attorneys were deficient, because they failed to note the
unreliability of cellphone
tracking evidence cited by
prosecutors to place Syed's
phone near the site where
Lee was buried.
The "Serial" podcast
attracted millions of listeners who became armchair
detectives as the series analyzed the case for weeks
in the winter of 2014.

DEAR ANNIE®
COPYRIGHT 2016 CREATORS SYNDICATE, INC.
Dear Annie: I am currently unemployed and living with my parents.
Because I have a disability, I am unable
to do many of the jobs available locally.
Besides my family, I am currently working with several people at the local Department of Labor to find a job related
to my degrees -- one that will help me
start a career. My family wants me to
get any job.
One of the local nursing homes
has several openings for certified nursing assistants. With the exception of my
parents, no one sees this as a good fit
for me. After all, my mother is on the
nursing home’s board. As a result, I’m
sure that I would hear about every mistake I made during dinner if I got the
job.
My mother is so obsessed with
my applying. She asks me several
times every day whether I have completed the forms. I’m losing it. I don’t
know how long it will be before I crack.
What should I do? -- Going Nuts
Dear Going Nuts: I gather Mom is
a wee bit on the overbearing side. Your
circumstances might mean you have to
live with her, but that doesn’t mean you
have to live for her. Stand up to her and
find your own career. The time out of
the house, building your own life, will be
invaluable to your sanity.
Dear Annie: My wife and I divorced in 2007 after 33 years of marriage; after the kids moved out, she
realized she didn’t love me anymore.
I’m writing because I have a crush on a
woman with whom I’ve been friends for
40 years.
Her late husband was a very
good friend of mine. My now-ex-wife
and I used to socialize with them as
couples. He and I hunted and fished
“ALL THE NEWS YOU CAN USE”
and talked about everything in that
special way you can when you’re on a
boat, no one else listening. Our wives
did their own things together.
They were married for 25 years,
until he passed away in 2013. At his
funeral, we said our goodbyes, and she
insisted on walking me to my vehicle,
which was a block away. We hugged,
and she said, “Don’t be a stranger.
Maybe we could go out to dinner.” So I
waited six months or so and asked her
out to dinner. She accepted, and since
2014 we have been going out twice a
month and spending Christmas, New
Year’s Eve and both our birthdays
together. I always pay, except on my
birthday; then she insists on buying.
I haven’t been in a rush, but lately
I find myself attracted more and more.
When our evenings are over and I take
her home, we exchange a handshake
or a peck on the cheek, and I respect
her too much to push more of an advance than that.
She is 60, and I am 65. She works
full time, and I’m semi-retired. I haven’t
dated since I was very young. Do I stay
the course? -- Unfamiliar Waters
Dear Unfamiliar: Stay the course,
sailor. The conditions look perfect. You
two could offer each other companionship as you glide into your golden
years.
Birthdays, holidays and biweekly
dinners together? You two must be best
friends. That is a wonderful foundation
for a relationship, and it sounds as if
you’re already going through many of
the motions of dating. Make your intentions known by asking whether she
would like to go on a date. One of the
upsides of dating at 65 versus 16 is maturity and understanding. If you ask her
out and she’s not interested, you can
stay friends. No awkwardly dodging
each other in homeroom.

Kaine criticizes Trump on tax returns, business debts
LAS VEGAS (AP) —
Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine
called on Donald Trump to
release his tax returns and
provide details about his
companies' debts, assailing
the Republican presidential nominee as untrustworthy.
"He's got to start being
straight with the American
people about this," Kaine
said Monday. "We've got to
know who Donald Trump
is beholden to."
Trump has bucked
long-held convention by
not releasing his tax returns.
The
billionaire
businessman has financed
some of his real estate investments with help from a
variety of foreign financial
institutions.
The Virginia senator was speaking to the
ironworkers' annual convention in Las Vegas,
making an appeal to bluecollar workers attracted to
Trump's anti-trade agenda. Kaine brought his father, Al Kaine, who owned
a union-organized ironworking and welding shop
in the Kansas City area.
Tim Kaine and his running mate, Hillary Clinton,
are competing against
Trump for the support of
rank-and-file union members, particularly in Midwest battleground states
where wages have stagnated and a decline in manufacturing jobs has hurt
workers. Nevada, a political swing state, counts a
number of unions for the
hotel and other related industries.
Major unions, including the ironworkers, have
endorsed Clinton, and the
labor vote has long been a
key part of the Democratic
base. But Trump is aggressively courting union voters, and he's tried to paint
Clinton as beholden to Wall
Street interests.
Tim Kaine highlighted
his family connection to the
trades during his speech,
noting that he grew up
working weekends and
summers alongside union
ironworkers. Kaine said labor would have two strong
allies in the White House
if the Clinton-Kaine ticket
won.
"You will always have
a seat at the table," Kaine
said.
He
also
criticized
Trump's resistance to efforts by employees to
unionize at the Republican's Las Vegas hotel.
Much of Trump's pitch
to labor has centered on international trade. He has
repeatedly denounced as
"stupid" trade deals that
he says hurt U.S. workers,
and he's pledged to penalize companies for sending
jobs overseas.
Trump has also said
that Clinton would implement the Trans-Pacific
Partnership trade deal if
she's elected. While Clinton
promoted the agreement
dozens of times as secretary of state, she has since
said she cannot support its
current form. Kaine also
opposes the TPP, though
he voted in 2015 to support
so-called fast-track authority allowing the president
to negotiate trade deals
that Congress can approve
or deny but not amend or
filibuster.
Gabby Giffords' gun safety group endorses Toomey re-election
HARRISBURG (AP)
— Gun-control politics
put down more roots in
Pennsylvania's race for
U.S. Senate on Monday
as former Democratic
congresswoman
Gabby
Giffords endorsed the
re-election bid of Republican incumbent Pat
Toomey over Democratic
challenger Katie McGinty.
Giffords, who was
gravely wounded in a
2011 mass shooting in Arizona, and her husband,
Mark Kelly, made the endorsement in an editorial
on behalf of their organization, Americans for Responsible Solutions.
Toomey, they said,
"broke from the gun
lobby" in a 2013 vote
to expand background
checks to gun purchases
online and at gun shows.
The bill — a response to
the shooting rampage
at Connecticut's Sandy
Hook Elementary School
in 2012 — ultimately
failed amid Republican
opposition.
Gun control is already the subject of two
TV ads running in Pennsylvania's U.S. Senate
race, which is viewed as
crucial to determining
control of the chamber
next year. Polls show a
neck-and-neck race between Toomey and McGinty.
McGinty's campaign
said that her positions
on gun control are more
in line with Giffords' and
that Toomey has hardly
strayed from the National Rifle Association's
positions in a flurry of re-
cent votes.
On Monday at the
Pennsylvania Press Club
in Harrisburg, McGinty
attacked Toomey as doing little more than lending his name to the background-check legislation
before abandoning it. He
touts his "A rating" with
the NRA and twice voted
against measures to prevent terrorism suspects
from buying guns, McGinty said.
"He's not been a fighter for common-sense gun
safety," McGinty said.
Democrats also noted
that McGinty supports a
ban on the sale of assault
weapons and limits on
magazine capacity. Toomey does not.
In a statement, Toomey said he was honored
by the endorsement and
committed to "bridging
the partisan divide" to
close the terrorist loophole, expand background
checks to gun shows and
online sales, and fund research into gun violence.
"I look forward to
introducing a bill next
Congress that works
to achieve these ends,"
Toomey said.
Toomey also is endorsed by billionaire Michael Bloomberg, another
gun control advocate.
Toomey
opposed
Democrats' bills to close
the terrorist loophole because, he said, of the barriers they would create
for someone who is mistakenly put on a terrorist watch list and blocked
from buying a gun.
Rather, Toomey supported
a
Republican
measure to block such
purchases,
legislation
that Democrats defeated
and criticized as being
ineffective. GOP leaders
did not allow a vote on a
proposed compromise bill
Toomey drafted in June,
and he sided with Democrats on another proposed
compromise sponsored by
Sen. Susan Collins, RMaine. The NRA opposed
Collins' bill, and Republicans defeated it.
Five weeks before the
2010 election, the NRA
gave Toomey an "A'' rating and endorsed him in
his race against Democrat Joe Sestak. It has not
issued an endorsement of
Toomey's re-election bid
or updated his rating,
and a spokesman would
not say whether the NRA
plans to endorse Toomey
in this campaign.
In one of the gun-control TV ads running in
Pennsylvania, a national
Democratic group, Senate Majority PAC, portrays McGinty as stronger on gun control and
shows video of Toomey
last month telling an
audience, "I have had a
perfect record with the
NRA." The Toomey campaign insists that comment was made while explaining that he supports
fuller background checks.
In the other ad, run
by Bloomberg's group,
the daughter of the principal slain in the Sandy
Hook shooting says she
is grateful for Toomey's
willingness to defy GOP
leaders on legislation to
expand gun background
checks.

THROUGH ALL STAGES OF LIFE IMPROVING HEALTH – ONE SPINE AT A TIME.
OFFICE HOURS: Mon., Wed. & Fri. 9-7
Many students take the bus to school twice a
day, five days a week. Approximately 26 million
elementary and secondary school children ride
school buses daily in the United States, and the
U.S. Department of Transportation says more
than 50 percent of all K-12 students in the country
ride yellow school buses, traveling approximately
4 billion miles each year.
The vast majority of these miles are traveled
without incident. In fact, according to the
National Safety Council, the national school
bus accident rate is 0.01 per 100 miles traveled,
compared to 0.96 for other passenger vehicles,
which makes school buses considerably safer than
other passenger vehicles.
Though school buses are safe, there are other
ways to make them even safer. Children, especially
those new to school buses, may find the bus fun
and unique and not pay attention to simple safety
rules. But parents should take steps to ensure
that youngsters always heed the following school
bus safety guidelines.
• Wait for the bus in a safe location that is away
from traffic, ideally staying in a designated
school bus stop until the bus arrives.
• Dress for optimal visibility, especially in
inclement weather when it can be difficult for
the school bus driver and other motorists to
see pedestrians.
• Do not board the bus until it comes to a
complete stop. Wait for the driver to open the
door, which engages the “Stop” sign for
oncoming motorists.
• Use the handrail and enter the bus in an
orderly manner.
• Promptly find a seat, sit down and buckle the
safety belt if there is one available. Students
assigned seats on the bus should take their seat
without making a fuss.
• Keep backpacks and other belongings out of
the center aisle. Store them under your seat or
on your lap.
• Remain seated at all times while the bus is in
motion.
• Keep arms, hands, legs, and heads inside of the
bus at all times.
• Always follow the driver’s instructions
and avoid situations that will cause driver
distraction.
• Wait for the bus to stop completely before
standing up or attempting to exit.
• Exit the bus in an orderly manner, without
pushing fellow passengers.
• Only cross the street in front of the bus. It
is very difficult for the driver to see
students crossing behind the bus.
• Wait for the driver to check traffic before
crossing the street and be on the lookout for
inattentive motorists.
