Those smarter than me
have long said that we are a
product of our raising. A cursory look at oneself and
those about us confirms this
is generally a true statement.
As we inch ever closer to the
presidential election in
Ị ovember, allow me to share
some newly-gleaned information about our current
president.
Thus far, we understand that
Barack Hussein Obama was
born in Honolulu, Hawaii to
a white American woman
and a black Kenyan man,
Barack H. Obama, Sr. The
president was born in
America, but did not stay
here long until he was
removed to indonesia, where
his mother would later marry
a native of that country, Lolo
Soetoro and her young son,
Barry, would, at least temporarily, adopt the name of
his new stepfather.
Schooled in the best private
schools of that Muslim
nation, young Barry Soetoro
(as the documents filled out
by his mother listed him)
was listed as being of the
Muslim faith and an
indonesian citizen. He now
lists his religion as Christian,
but has acknowledged being
raised in a Muslim setting.
He would later return to
America where he was raised
during his teenage years by
his white grandparents. in a
campaign speech while running for president, he would
later disparage his grandmother,
whom he called “Toot”
(Hawaiian for grandmother)

Attorney: Removal petition wrongly filed
By Joe MAy
EdiTOR
The attorney for embattled
Caddo Valley Mayor Alan
dillavou says that he does
not believe a petition filed
last week calling for his
removal is proper.
Arkadelphia attorney Travis
Berry told The Standard that
a petition filed by Clark
County deputy Prosecuting
Attorney dan Turner seeking
the removal of the three-term
mayor does not come from
the proper source.
dillavou's removal is being
sought after it was discovered that he was convicted in
1969 of theft in Texas when
he was 22 years old. The
mayor has said that he paid a
fine for stealing a fire extinguisher off of a boat not long
after he left the military.
Clark County Prosecutor
Blake Batson, following an
investigation into the matter
by the sheriff's office, had
the paperwork filed based on
an Arkansas statute that bars
those convicted of certain
crimes from holding public
office. it was filed after
dillavou refused an offer to
resign.
Berry, however, saying that
he is not yet prepared to
debate the merits of the case,
said that his first concern
was that the prosecutor's

Manning announces for JP 11
SPeCiAl to tHe StAndARd
Larry Manning is announcing his candidacy for Clark
County Quorum Court, JP
district 11.
A native of Clark County,
Manning teaches in the
Arkadelphia School System.
He is married to Brenda and
has two children and two
grandchildren that live in
Clark County.
A teacher of 25 years, Manning
tries to bring practical experience
to his classroom and foster community service ideas with the students. Working with other teachers, he has helped to organize
community-based beautification
projects for his students and
states, “These projects encourage
volunteer service and pride in the
community”. He recognizes the
importance that our citizens
place on education. “in order to
prepare our students for the
work force, we
need to encourage them to
complete their
primary education and then
help them seek out the secondary
educational goals that suit their
ambitions whether it is college or
technical training.” in the classroom, Larry utilizes the team
approach to teaching while
drawing on all available
researches to maximize the
learning experience. He believes
that there is an application of this
approach to county government.
“For our county to reach its
potential, we must utilize all of
our resources from the county
while continuing to expand our
teamwork with neighboring
counties and state agencies.”
Manning previously served on
the Quorum Court in 2008 when
he was appointed by Governor
Beebe to fill a JP vacancy in his
county district. He enjoyed
working on the issues of Clark
County and would appreciate the
opportunity to serve again. “i
consider it a privilege to participate in this election. We have a
dedicated group of county officials, JP’s and employees that
serve our county. i would be
honored to work with these individuals for the betterment of
Clark County.”
Manning serves on the Clark
County 4-H Board, the Clark
County Farm Bureau Board, and
has served on the Clark County
Conservation district Board. He
is a member of Third Street
Baptist Church where he and his
wife serve as Children’s
department directors.

“Arkansas statutes allow
the attorney general to recall
municipal and city employees,” he explained. “This
action, if commenced, must
be through the attorney general, not the local prosecutor.”
While county employees
would come under the jurisdiction of the prosecutor,
Berry said that city or municipal officeholders are under
the authority of the governor's office, which means the
action must be initiated by
Attorney General dustin
Mcdaniel.
Asked if he felt dillavou
was qualified to serve as
mayor, Berry replied, “i
don't know. Whether or not
his conduct in 1969 would
constitute an offense involving municipal interest or
breach of trust, i don't know.
i'm going to have to do some
more research on that. i just
know that it is my opinion
that this is not in the proper
forum.”
“i like Alan dillavou,”
Berry commented. “i think
he's devoted several years of
service and i know him to be
a reasonable guy. While i'm
unable to speculate if Alan
continues to be qualified, i

do think he should be
allowed to continue, but i
represent many people that
have made mistakes. Alan
saw it as a nothing situation
that didn't effect his trust or
integrity.”
“i do know that he will
comply with the law,” he
noted.
Right now, Berry said he is
continuing to research into
the matter. dillavou has thirty days to respond to the
petition.
“i have great respect for
dan Turner and Blake
Batson,” Berry said. “i
believe that they are working
the the best interests of Clark
County and Caddo Valley in
mind, i just don't believe the
law gives the prosecutor the
standing to file this petition.”
Berry said that once he has
satisfied himself through
research that his position is
correct, he will file a motion
for Clark County Circuit
Judge Robert McCallum to
dismiss the petition.
As for himself, Berry said it
is not his desire to get into
Caddo Valley politics.
“i'm not going to get into
the local political atmosphere,” he said. “i represent
Alan and i love being a
lawyer. i saw something that
did not appear to be correct
and i have devoted my life to
upholding the law and that's
what i'm doing.”

This would be a good time
to take a one-day drive and
see all the signs of spring.
Were there ever so many
trees and shrubs with white
blossoms before? The daffodil festivals may be complicated this year, with some
blossoms too early.
in
Camden, the festival is
March 9-10. There are many
other things to see: historic
homes, the old cemetery, the
Hale collection of log cabins,
perhaps a re-enactment on
the river of a Civil War battle. Ouachita County was
formed in 1842 with the
Fabre's
county seat " (at % $%)
(!
Landing. ,in 1844, the seat
was moved to Camden.
At Wye Mountain, near the
Wye Mountain United
Methodist Church, the festival is listed for the month.
The church began as a
United Brethren in Christ in
1919, in 1946, it merged
with another to become the
Evangelical United Brethren
and in 1968, this denomination merged with the
Methodists to form the
United Methodist Church.
The Jonquil Festival at Old
Washington Park near Hope
is listed for March 16-18.
There are many historic
homes, the large magnolia
tree, a restaurant, maybe a
surrey ride and an old cemetery. Garvan Woodland
Gardens in Hot Springs is
advertising daffodil days
through early March. There
are always other interesting
plants and bridges and trails.

could load and unload a large
rock for my patio. We visited the Leslie Mall, the
Serendipity Bakery (which
has old world sourdough
brick-oven bread) some are
fruit-filled loaves made with
country French dough. This
was once the world's larges
barrel
maker
(during
Prohibition) and was originally called Wiley's Cove for a
chief of an unidentified indian
tribe. There are outcroppings of Mississippi Age
limestone and a limestone
bluff for a mile along the
highway a mile south of
Leslie, up to about twenty-feet high. There was an
Ozark
Heritage Arts
Center and Museum in a
WPA-constructed building.
i've ordered two
loaves of bread from the
bakery and it should
arrive soon.

on the idiot Road
As you read this there are
dozens of men and women
and hundreds of dogs crossing a very cold Alaska: more
than a thousand miles of it.
it’s called the iditarod by
everyone who doesn’t drive
a team in it. For those who
have, it’s the idiot Road.
There are deadly serious
mushers in that race who are
after that prize money, and a
few of them will get it. But
there are also the taildraggers. They know they won’t
win. What they want to do,
really, is finish this most difficult of all races. And more
than that … to find out exactly what’s inside them.
Thirty-nine years ago this
week, that was me.
i had seven dogs. The minimum that year. And i had to
borrow two to make the minimum. Most teams were in
the 12 to 16-dog range. This
translates to putting a VW
bug in the indy 500. Forget
any prize money.
The front runners have
snow machines half a day
ahead of them, packing trail.
With packed trail, those
teams can average something
like 80 miles a day. Without
packed trail, you’re lucky to
get five miles, on snowshoes.
And all it takes to turn a
packed trail into snowshoe
time is half an hour of wind.

There have always been
“recreational mushers,” like
i was back then. i lived 12
miles from a road in those
days, and for six months
each year, the dogs got us
back and forth to the village.
They were basic transportation and basic family.
But this race, this monujourney
from
mental
Anchorage to Ị ome, makes
a person want to hook up the
dogs and head out.
i wasn’t able to finish the
race that year, 1973, because
of an injury, and while i was
on the trail, everyone passed
me. And i guess it’s because
of that that each March i say
a little prayer for all the
mushers and all the dogs, but
especially for the recreational mushers, for the taildraggers. They’ll be out in the
cold and the lonely longer
than the winners, looking to
find that certain personal
something.
Packed trail and fresh dogs,
people. it’s a very long way
to Ị ome.

What a week
This past week out on the
advertising and writing field has
been difficult to say the least. i
could go into extreme detail but
i won't. i will, however, give you
a couple or three examples.
in Bryant, i waited six hours
one day, seeing old clients and
cold calls, hanging out at Mills
Park and finally going to do the
scheduled interview (keep in
mind Bryant is more than an
hour from my home) just to have
the guy tell me he did not "feel
like" keeping our appointment
and for me to come back the following Tuesday to do his business review!
i sucked it up and smiled at
my customer, put the new date
down on my calendar, got in my
car and drove away. As i have
probably shared in this column
before, i have a 1995 Ford
Taurus, six-cylinder, four-door,
"perfect" machine. As my
mechanic says, it sounds like a
race car, has good tires, does not
use oil so far and only has
183,000 miles showing!
Anyway, me and my old
light blue Ford left the parking
lot there in Bryant and i decided
to turn right and check on another client one more time before
finding the interstate to go home.
A car stopped suddenly to make
a left turn in front of me. i
stopped OK. The girl behind me
and her small daughter stopped
OK. But somebody behind her
shoved her like a bumper car,
which caused her car to shove
my old car too. Ị obody was hurt
and there is seemingly no damage to either one of our vehicles.
The car who started the bumping
conveniently disappeared quickly. i believe they call that hit and
run. Ị either of us got a good
description of the person who
was not watching his driving.
But its OK because me and
the girl and her kid are all fine
and our two cars still work fine.
We exchanged information in
case there was ever anything to
come of the incident. We both
have insurance so neither of us
John
nelson
Columnist
was scared to confront the cops.
But we saw no need. So we went
about our rat killing.
i got on the interstate and
headed home without further
incident. Then the weekend
passed and things got worse
financially. i am telling you, last
week was like somebody shut
off the water. You could not even
buy a full meal deal at Sonic
with my tithes and offerings for
the week!
At any rate, i ran my route
on Monday, anticipating the
enjoyment of covering a Gurdon
City Council meeting. There
was no quorum and the meeting
was canceled.
So that is the extent of my
examples. it got worse, but that
is OK. You get the idea. My
point today is simple, no matter
how bad it looks, if you will hold
onto God's hand you will make it
somehow. i have a new business
plan that will become evident
over the next few months.
So what do we do with hard
times? Me, i try not to make big
changes. i try to use the fine tuning button. i have found that profound changes usually result in
disaster, but if you are unwilling
to make a few adjustments in
you business, personal life or
whatever, then you will fall
under that old Celebrate
Recovery definition of insanity;
"doing the same thing over and
over, expecting different results."
insanity never seems to help
us much. But we all do it until
we realize the futility of our
ways. if we throw water into the
wind, it will come back on you
and give you a wet shirt...
i do believe i am guilty of
that a lot. But as i get older, when
the fat lady begins to sing, i pray.
i ask God to show me the fine
tunings necessary to keep going,
whether it is in my business, my
marriage or my life in general.

“Sailors who go directly to
a base, station or ship without specialized school training following recruit training
are encouraged to select a
career field. Through correspondence courses provided
for self-study and on-the-job
training (OJT), they may
qualify for entry into a rating. This path is called
"striking for rate." A seaman
working in the deck department of a ship will by work
assignment find herself most
often in training for the deck
rating of Boatswain Mate.
Many "strikers" will venture
into other departments to
become a Yeoman, damage

as openings occur. Many
technical rating fields are
restricted to formal school
graduates and thereby closed
to "strikers." Having experienced the width and depth of

become excellent petty officers.”

in June of 2009, President
Obama gave a speech titled, “A
Ị ew Beginning,” in Cairo
Egypt to the Muslim worldwide
community. Mr. Obama wasted
no time fulfilling one of his campaign promises of defending
Muslims’ religious freedoms.
For example, in one part of the
speech Mr. Obama said, “in the
United States, rules on charitable
giving have made it harder for
Muslims to fulfill the religious
obligations. That’s why i’m
committed to working with
American Muslims to insure
that they can fulfill zakat. it is
important for western countries
to avoid impeding Muslim citizens from practicing religion as
they see fit.”
According to the islamic Relief
Worldwide website, “Zakat is
the third pillar of islam and an
obligation for all Muslims. All
Muslims who possess wealth
above a zakat payable amount
for one lunar year have to pay
zakat, leading some to refer to it
as a ‘social purifying tax’. As the
aim of zakat is to ensure a
greater equality in the distribution of wealth in society zakat
payments can only be spent on
specific categories which
include the poor and needy.”
Contrast this strong stance for
freedom of religion for Muslims
with Mr. Obama’s mandates in
his signature Affordable Health
Care for America Act (AHCA).
That law mandates employers to
provide free contraceptive, sterilization, and “plan B” pills for
women, even religious organizations whose tenets of faith forbid them from providing these
services and products.
Cardinal Timothy dolan, president of the U.S. Conference of
Catholic Bishops, called the
mandate "an unwarranted,
unprecedented radical intrusion." in a speech last week
dolan said, "We're not trying to
impose our teachings on anybody. We're simply saying, don't
impose your teaching upon us
and make us do as a church what
we find unconscionable to do."
Why is Mr. Obama insisting the
Catholic Church obey his mandate in violation of the Church’s
historical and ancient moral
code? Why has he made a law
abridging freedom of religion
for the Church?
The U.S. Supreme Court is
hearing a constitutional challenge to another federal mandate
that forces everyone to purchase
health insurance. Twenty-six
state Attorneys-General filed
suit against the Obama
Administration over the constitutionality of that mandate. Can
the federal government force
someone to buy something he
doesn’t want to buy? That’s the
question the Court will answer
by early summer.
Mr. Obama has told Catholic
hospitals and other medical
providers they must pay for free
contraceptive, sterilization, and
“plan B” pills for women. This
is a dangerous precedent.
if Mr. Obama can force any
person or church to pay for anything that violates that entity’s
religious conscience or beliefs,
what might other administrations force on individuals and
churches? What if some Bible
loving, gun toting nut won the
White House and mandated
everyone in America had to buy
pork at least once a week to
stimulate the pork market?
Mr. Obama began his presidency proclaiming his defense of
Muslims’ religious freedoms,
and he is ending his first term
attacking the Catholic Church’s
religious freedoms. There’s
something very inconsistent
about that!

the mud bath
Just because some women
have an occupation involving farming and livestock, it
doesn’t mean they are not
concerned
about
their
appearance, hair, skin and
body care. Kadie is one of
them. She’s on a family
ranch in Montana. Both she
and her husband share the
calving duties in the spring,
but cold windy weather
plays havoc with her beauty
regimen.
Last Christmas she had
clipped out an ad for a spa
that included hot tubs, massage, pedicures, manicures
and mud baths. She even
posted a sample page from
the ad on her bathroom mirror listing the services she
might need.
At 4:30am, one insomniac
morning, she rose to check
the heavy heifers. Her back
ached and she couldn’t
sleep. Might as well work.
She pulled on her jeans, a
wool shirt, rubber boots and
a warm but ratty jacket. On
leaving the house Kadie
grabbed her flashlight and
furry cap.
The weather had warmed
up to 35 degrees two days
ago. Snow pack turned to
mud. Thank goodness the
wind was only 5-10 mph
with gusts up to 20. The
moon was covered by overcast but she knew the way.
At the far end of the coral
she saw a new-born calf laid
out like a plank in the mud.
He was shivering and shaking. This, Kadie reminded
herself, is the reason we go
the extra mile. To her, each
cow and calf mattered.
Mama cow was hovering
over baby and was acting
protective. Kadie sensed
this and picked up a “be
nice” stick along with the
sled rope with the same
hand, the flashlight being in
the other. She loaded the
‘dead weight’ 80 lb, slick,
wet, slimy lug of a calf onto
the sled. it wasn’t easy, considering she was juggling the
flashlight
and
tapping
Mama’s snorting incursions
with the stick. She only
went down once in the slop,
managing to soak her entire
left side in the process.
She wrapped the sled rope
over her shoulder and leaned
into the harness. The sled
was sinking in the goop! it
stuck! She tried again with a
mighty tug, pulled the sled
free and fell flat on her face!
With the strength inspired
by desperation and fury, she

slogged through the crusty
bog like a winch pulling a
dead turkey through a twoinch pipe! The light from
the shed shone like a beacon
as she drew her precious
load to safety. Kadie felt
like Seabiscuit crossing the
finish line just before she hit
a patch of ice under the deep
muck and went down hard!
She tried to twist on the fall
and almost completed a fullgainer and tuck and roll. it
was a valiant try but it simply managed to roll her in
the mud like a chocolatedipped burrito!
Twenty minutes later, job
done, she hobbled into the
bathroom. it would be fair
to say she did not recognize
the face in the mirror. Then
the list caught her eye. “i
guess,” she said to nobody in
particular, “i can cross out
mud-bath.”

A Century of Discovery
Girl Scouts Turn 100
Girl Scouts in your school and
community will celebrate a big
milestone this year. One hundred
years ago on March 12, Juliette
Gordon Low and 18 girls started the
Girl Scouts in Savannah, Ga.
The Mini Page learned more about
Girl Scouting through the years and
today.
A growing group
;$ -"<
This group
of Girl Scout
Juniors share
a laugh during
an outdoor
activity.
More than 2 million girls and almost
a million adult volunteers participate
in Girl Scouts. Groups are found in 92
countries around the world.
The Girl Scout Promise
Girl Scouts at every age
Today, girls
can join Girl
Scouts as early
as 5 years old.
Kindergarten
and first-grade
Girl Scouts are
called Daisies. Second- and thirdgrade Girl Scouts are Brownies.
Fourth- and fifth-grade girls are called
Girl Scout Juniors. Girls in grades 6
through 8 are Cadettes, and grades
9 and 10 are Seniors. Girl Scout
Ambassadors are girls in grades 11
and 12.
A girl may join a troop, or she may
just attend Girl Scout camp or go to
a short-term session about something
that interests her, such as sports or
theater. Girls who move overseas can
still be part of Girl Scouts through
international programs.

On my honor, I will try:
To serve God and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.
What do Girl Scouts do?
Girl Scouting introduces girls to
three keys to leadership:
sDiscover — become more aware
of yourself and the world.
sConnect — learn to get along
with others and have healthy
relationships.
sTake action — learn to solve
problems and think about the larger
community and world.
Girls develop these leadership skills
by earning badges. For example, for an
art badge, a Girl Scout might make a
digital movie. Today, a hiking badge
might involve geocaching, an outdoor
treasure-hunting game that uses GPS
devices to find hidden containers.
The Girl Scout Law
I will do my best to be
honest and fair,
friendly and helpful,
considerate and caring,
courageous and strong, and
responsible for what I say and do,
and to
respect myself and others,
respect authority,
use resources wisely,
make the world a better place, and
be a sister to every Girl Scout.

now Susie’s voice, a voice
that says enough is enough!!
Yes folks, cover ups happen
right here in good ole Clark
County just like in the big
city. Because of who Susie
Robinson was not, you
would have probably never
heard her story.
All my records are public
information, i have all documentation to prove what i
say is true. i will be glad to
share the contents of that
investigation with anyone
who wishes to get to the truth
Susie
surrounding
Robinson’s death.
A wrongful death and negligent lawsuit has been filed
on behalf of Susie Robinson
which further tells you of
wrongdoing. i am proud to
say that i am the coroner of
this county and despite the
long hours and low pay i
continue to do my job just as
i told you i would ten years
ago.
As for those who are
involved in this, you know
who you are and so do i. i
made a promise to Susie
Robinson that i would not
stop until everyone involved
in this has been exposed for
what they really are. And i
keep my promises.
Sincerely,
Tim Welch
Clark County Coroner
dear Editor,
i stood before the residents
of Clark County ten years
ago and ask for their support.
i got your support and i took
the oath of office of Coroner.
The oath stated that i would
uphold the laws of the state
of Arkansas, always do what
was right and most importantly always try to find the
truth.
i have done that just as i
promised this county i
would. Ị ow comes before
me the case of Susie
Robinson, a little black lady
that was blind, mentally
challenged, somewhat helpless, and also without a voice
from her family. You see,
Susie was a resident of Clark
County until her death on
Easter Sunday of 2010.
Susie was not a person of
wealth, not a name long
known or associated with
Arkadelphia history, Susie
was simply a human being!
Susie’s death has caused me
personally many sleepless
nights, many days of wondering where to turn next in
getting her the attention that
she is due!!
You see Susie’s death
should never have happened.
Ị o, you did not read about
the cover up of the circumstances surrounding her
death in the daily newspaper,
nor will you. You see i am

When Juliette was a young woman,
she had a bad ear infection. A doctor
tried an experimental treatment
that caused her to lose most of the

Later, when she married William,
a piece of rice thrown at the couple
at their wedding stuck in her good
ear and pierced her eardrum. That
ear also became infected, and she lost
most of her hearing in it.
Juliette was open to girls with
disabilities in the Girl Scouts because
she had never let her deafness stop
her from achieving her goals.

Soon after Juliette Gordon Low
started the first group of Girl Scouts,
big changes took place in the United
States. In early 1917, the U.S.
entered World War I.
By 1920, nearly 70,000 girls were
participating in Girl Scouting.

spokesperson for the Girl Scouts of the
USA, for help with this issue.
Girl Scouts have a lot of fun, but
they also have a purpose. Earning
badges shows that they have learned
something. Scouts are involved in
making decisions about what their
troop will accomplish each year.
With the Internet and global
news available to us, people have
become more connected with the
world outside their own communities.
Modern Girl Scouts speak up for
themselves and for others around the

work for equal rights.

Medications and Sleep
Hours spent sleeping are critical to the proper functioning of our
bodies during waking hours. Sleep is indeed essential for daily life. Rapid
eye movement (REM) sleep occurs about every one and a half to two
hours during sleep, and makes up approximately one-quarter of overall
sleep time. Non-REM sleep is divided into three stages. Stage 1 is the
time transitioning from being awake to sleeping. During this stage, the
lightest sleep, accounting for only about 5% of total sleep time, occurs.
Stage 2 is intermediate sleep, which accounts for approximately half of
total sleep time. Stage 3 is known as deep sleep.
A protective barrier for the brain, known as the blood brain barrier
(BBB), regulates admission of substances into the brain. However, certain medications may cross the BBB, and in turn impact our sleep. Medications that influence the central nervous system (CNS) and may affect
sleep include antidepressants and benzodiazepines. Doxepin (Silenor) is
a type of tricyclic antidepressant that decreases the time it takes to fall
asleep and decreases waking once asleep. Diazepam (Valium) and
lorazepam (Ativan) are benzodiazepine medications that may be prescribed
to treat insomnia or anxiety. These medications decrease the time it takes
to fall asleep and also decrease the amount of time spent in the light sleep
stage.

shiny as long as it was in the
wrapper, but after a bit of
exposure to air and moisture,
it began to oxidize and turn
black. its usefulness was the
same as over-with at that
time, as far as we were concerned. Ị or did we use or
pass one of those turning
black. We simply slipped it
over into the nickel pocket
and kept it out of sight.
So the afternoon was about
gone and we knew that our
one-day “affair” was history.
We wandered down to the
wholesale grocery complex
and lo-and-behold, there was
Orbie Vaughn's rolling store
backed up to the merchants' dock and just as
we walked up, he came out
and recognized us on sight.
“Hey, fellows! What are you
doing here?” he inquired.
“We thought we'd try out for
a job, but i'm too little and
he's too big, so i guess we'll
just try and catch a ride back
to Glenwood,” i suggested.
“Well, jump in the cab and
let's go,” he responded. “You
boys got any money left or
did you spend it all?” Orbie
inquired as we neared Arthur
Cook's All Cream ice Cream
on the southwest side of
town, and across the street
from McClard's Bar-B-Que.
You had to be unusually selfdisciplined or flat broke to
pass up either place on
your way out of town.
“We've still got a little,” my
buddy replied, grinning at
me.
“if he only knew,” i
thought, “he'd haul us
right back downtown and
make us go back and 'fess up
and make restitution at every
location.”

“it ain’t Survivor until the lying starts!”
1140 Main Street in Arkadelphia
This statement came across the television in a
870-246-6701
recent advertisement. Within the advertisement the
• Memphis, TN 38174-0298
promoters glorified the art of lying, deception,
T
backbiting and malicious intent among its participants. it seems that our society has become
Alpine, Arkansas
engrossed in the idea that such manifestations are
870-342-9227
acceptable, if not to be glorified.
Such actions are common not only on television but in the
daily existence of the populous. Even small children are
seen manifesting these actions in their lives. Have you
ever asked a child a question such as, “did you spill that
milk?” and the child respond, “Ị o!” even though you witnessed the incident?
Many wonder why our children lie about such things and
where they learned to do this. The answer is such actions
are so common in our society that these little ones do not
understand it to be unacceptable. And people wonder
what is happening to our world?
God in his eternal and all knowing wisdom condemns
such acts. God truly knows how destructive lying can be
to a society. Under the Law given to Moses for the
israelites God commands, “You shall not steal, nor deal
falsely, nor lie to one another (Leviticus 19:11).
“You destroy those who speak falsehood; The LORd
abhors the man of bloodshed and deceit” (Psalms 5:6).
”My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they
may dwell with me; He who walks in a blameless way is
the one who will minister to me. He who practices deceit
shall not dwell within my house; He who speaks falsehood shall not maintain his position before me. Every
morning i will destroy all the wicked of the land, So as to
cut off from the city of the LORd all those who do iniquity” (Psalm 101:6-8).
“Lying lips are an abomination to the LORd, But those
who deal faithfully are His delight” (Proverbs 12:22) and
“A false witness will not go unpunished, And he who tells
Buck’s Country Store
State tournament action
lies will perish” (Proverbs 19:9).
Throughout the teaching of the Old Testament
actions such as lying, deception, backbiting and
malicious intent are condemned.
The same is true in the teachings of the Ị ew
Testament. The apostle Paul enumerates what is
commonly called “the deeds of the flesh” in
Galatians chapter five. Such actions as lying,
deception, backbiting and malicious intent are
found within this listing (Galatians 5:16-21). Paul
also notes that those who practice such things,
“…will not inherit the kingdom of God” (Galatians
5:16-21).
in the Colossian letter, Paul notes the contrast
between living an unrighteous life and a righteous
life (Colossians 3:1-25).
“But now you also, put them all aside: anger,
wrath, malice, slander, and abusive speech from
your mouth. do not lie to one another, since you
laid aside the old self with its evil practices, and
have put on the new self who is being renewed to
a true knowledge according to the image of the
One who created him” (Colossians 3:8-10).
John records the words of our Lord in Revelation
concerning such actions:
“But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be
in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone,
which is the second death” (Revelation 21:8).
it is a sad reality that many in our society stand
opposed to God in their glorification of such
actions as, “lying, deception, backbiting and malicious intent.” if an individual desires to receive the
promise given by our Lord (Revelation 21:1-4)
they will strive to cast such actions and attitudes
out of their lives.
Truth will set one free as untruth will condemn one
to the abyss.

calls himself Evie, said that
while he never allowed the
future president to see him in
women's clothes, he did say
the boy saw him trying on
Ann Soetoro's lipstick and
laughed at the sight.
While living in the Soetoro
house, Turdi would go out at
night as a woman to seek his
own kind. Believing himself
to be a woman, he began
identifying as such and after
the Soetoro family left,
began living as one until he
became frightened following
a government crackdown
against such behavior.
He now lives as a man inasmuch as the government is
concerned, but is known for
his behavior by those around
him who call him by his
female name and act as if he
is a woman. in fact, in a
stomach-churning move, the
AP article consistently
referred to him as a female.
We never knew that gender
was something subjective,
but that is liberal values for

family in a Muslim nation
that is hostile to the United
States. in college and in his
private high school in the
US, he associated with radical black students and by his
own admission harbored
hard feelings for white peoAfter college, he
ple.
worked as a community
organizer (read “rabble
rouser”) and associated with
domestic terrorists with confirmed Socialist/Communist
leanings. He called himself
a constitutional law professor, yet the university he
worked for said he only
reached the level of “senior
lecturer.” And now we learn
that a homosexual had a
hand in his upbringing.
Frankly, if Barack Obama
had been a white man with
this sort of past, he wouldn't
be where he is right now.
Some say that's progress, but
for myself, i find it particularly troubling. Just who is
our president anyway? What
else are we going to find out
about this guy after the fact?
in a time when deliberate
leadership is needed to bring
our nation back to its moral
and financial foundations,
we have at the helm a man
who has been evasive about
his past, friendly to domestic
and foreign terrorists at the
expense of our own country,
sarcastic and at times dismissive about Christianity
(check out his YouTube slurs
against Christianity for yourself) but friendly towards
islam, the religion of our
enemies. He caters to homosexuals, a group whose
activities are rejected by a
majority of Americans and
appears to put their rights
above the rights of normal,
God-fearing people. He has
clearly shown that American
values are not his own.
Ị ever before in America
have we elected someone of
this character to our public
office. He makes Bill Clinton
appear truthful and Jimmy
Carter appear competent.
Barack Obama may well
have the legal qualifications to serve as president, but the moral qualifications are not present.
He is not like the rest of
us, whether he can help it
or not. if we love America
as it is (or as it once was
and can be again), it's our
duty
as
patriotic
Americans to step up to
the ballot box this
Ị ovember and purge our
nation of this man and his
backers before it is too
late.
This year, whether you
like the GOP nominee or
not, he simply must
receive our votes. There
is far too much at stake to
leave it in the hands of
our present administration.

Right-wing radio talk
show host (we refuse to
refer to him as “conservative”) Rush Limbaugh has
once again managed to
ruffle the feathers of the
nation. We wouldn’t care
so much what he says if it
didn’t reflect so poorly on
those on the right who
seek to live godly. if
you’ve ever listened to
this self-styled “star,”
then you’ll understand
that godly is not a word
that would be an apt discription.
in his latest gaffe,
Limbaugh, weighing in on
the issue of whether contraceptives should be paid for
by tax funds, referred to a
glenwood Senior news
The activities at the
Glenwood Senior Activity
Center are scheduled and
built for the needs of people
ages 60 and over to assist in
adding interesting things to
ones life and to help possible
assistance in better health.
We know that if one keeps
active they live longer and
enjoy life much more than if
they just sit down at home
and do nothing.
At the Glenwood SAC on the
first Tuesday morning of
each month 2 representatives
from the Pike County
Hospice comes to the Center
to take blood pressures and
blood sugar levels for those
that want that checked. Also
there is an Exercise routine
for those that wish to participate in that. Others gather to
play cards, dominoes or
shoot pool while others just
enjoy visiting.
Also on Tuesdays you can
get help with income tax
preparation or help with utilities but that is by appointment only and you must call
the office at 870-356-4212 to
learn make the appt.
We will be distributing the
Monthly Commodities on
Tuesday, March 13th beginning at 8:30.
On the last Tuesday of each
month we are going to show
an old movie at 9 AM. The
movie for this month is Sea
Bisquit..
The last Tuesday night of
each month the CAdC Van
takes those members that
want to attend the singing at
Alpine for an enjoyable
evening. The Van leaves the
Center at 5:30pm and gets
back at 10 pm or so. There
are a number of musicians &
there is gospel singing and
individual solos of other type
of songs and afterwards they
enjoy a pot luck snack.
a female college student,
Sandra Fluke who testified
before Congress on the issue
as a “prostitute” and a “slut.”
Ị ow, any decent man who
knows how to treat a woman
doesn’t refer to a member of
the fairer sex using those
terms. it’s just poor form;
however, Fluke, in asking
that the government fund her
promiscuity, left herself open
to such crass monikers.
Obviously, Fluke is not a
prostitute, but the other term,
while it shouldn’t have been
said, may well have been
more on target. One cannot
stand up and beg for free sex
paraphernalia and not expect
to have her morals impuned.
Limbaugh further said
Fluke should share sex
videos with the world. Poor
form once more. But the
question being raised is fair
enough. Why should we be
forced to pay for someone’s
promiscuity? i don’t care if
you are a man or a woman, fool
around on your own dime.
What’s next? Free booze for
alcoholics?

Every Wednesday is Bingo
day and a lot of the prizes
have been donated. On the
3rd Wednesday of this

the members will be participating in the Relay for Life.
On Thursdays we have
Gospel singing at 10 AM.
This activity was established
many years ago when we
began meeting at the Pike
County Fair Grounds. The
singers come from different
cities and our Pianist is
Ị elda Williams from Amity.
Some one has taken the special song book that we need
at the piano and if you know
who has borrowed it please
tell them to return it immediately. it is special print the
the pages open easier. (You
can get a copy of any song in
the office for 10 cents and
we do not like our books to
leave the building)
Every other Thursday
morning at 10 AM the
Representatives come from
the Glenwood Health and

jail time, fulfilled all parole-and-probationary requirements
and paid all fines related to their sentences. There is a 30-day
waiting period to receive public feedback on the pardons
before final action is taken.

City Manager Jimmy Bolt
recommended that Randall

director Scott Byrd asked
about the nature of the
board’s function.
“it’s OBU,” Bolt replied,
explaining
that

has partnered with it to allow the
university it to use the muncipality’s borrowing power.
Bill Fowler and Brett

Sewer Committee and Anna
Eudy was nominated for the
Planning Commission.
Herman L. Thomas was

SPeCiAl to tHe StAndARd
“The HSU SBTdC is extremely excited about the participation and involvement of so many businesses from Pike
County”. The seminars through HSU SBTdC cost $250.00
per class--thanks to the sponsorship from Ị ick & Rachel
Fowler of Fowler Auctioneers, 20 people attended the
Facebook ABC’s for Business & Tourism seminar recently in
Glenwood.
Upwards to 9 people is a very successful seminar in Hot
Springs. Glenwood and Murfreesboro came together and
went far above and beyond. There is a lot of opportunity for
development in the Pike County area and we are looking forward to a continued partnership with those progressive businesses. These seminars are a great way to help the businesses of our area with their social media marketing. Our center
hopes that this is also letting the businesses of Pike County
learn about and understand what we do. We are here to help
them in all aspects of their work, and hopefully we will start
great relationships with these businesses.”
Advisory Committee.
All the nominations were
accept unanimously.
Bolt also noted there is still
two vacancies on the Racial &
Cultural diversity Committee.
Sanitation director donnie
Manning then addressed the
board to present bids for three

his department.
The first item was a tractor
to pull the city’s new transfer
trailer. Manning recommended that the city accept a
$113,640 bid from Tri-State
Truck Center in Little Rock.
The second item was a compactor for the trash transport
system. Manning recommended the city accept a
$61,248 bid from downing
Sales & Services of
Phillipsburg, MO.
The third items was three
trailers to be used to transfer
waste. Manning recommended the city accept a bid of
$240,447 from Spector
Manufacturing, inc. of St.
Clair, PA.
All three bids were accepted unanimously.
Bolt then presented an ordinance that would allow the
city to finance the sanitation
department purchases with a
monthly payment of $6,652.
The loan would be through
Regions Bank and would be
at a 2.02% interest rate. At
the motion of directors
Chuck Hollingshead and
Roland Gosey, the motion
carried unanimously and was
put on an emergency clause
to take effect immediately.
The board then approved
