Everyone has this salad, but this is a different version, and it’s tasty, so I do like to share with all my readers out there. This salad has lots of flavor to it so don’t skimp on them. By Stephanie Henry INGREDIENTS: 1 16-ounce package of elbow macaroni or Ditali pasta 1 cup celery diced 1 cup red onion diced 1 cup yellow/white onion diced 1 cup medium cheddar cheese cubed 1 cup Swiss cheese cubed ½ cup grated parmesan cheese 1 cup dill pickle diced 1 cup salami diced 1 cup black olive diced ½ teaspoon horseradish 1 to 2 tablespoons garlic salt 1 to 2 tablespoons minced garlic ½ teaspoon white pepper 1 to 2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper ½ teaspoon dry mustard ½ teaspoon celery salt 1 3-ounce jar pimentos 1 to 1 ½ cup mayo TIME TO COOK: Bring two quarts of water to a boil, then add the macaroni/pasta. Cook 7 to 9 minutes DO NOT OVER COOK the pasta or it will fall apart when you toss the salad together. Rinse macaroni until cool. Drain well and let it dry out slightly. Place pasta in a large bowl. Carefully fold in celery, onion, cheddar, Swiss and Parmesan cheese, dill pickles, salami and black olives. Refrigerate the mixture, make sure it’s covered, for at least 2 hours, for best results overnight. Mix the garlic salt, minced garlic, white pepper, black pepper, cayenne pepper, dry mustard and celery salt together and add to the salad. Fold in the pimentos. Mix 1 cup mayo and horseradish; fold into the salad. You may use the other ½ cup of mayo if needed. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes to 1 hour before serving. Enjoy!

Red’s Ideal Meals Letters to the Editor Letters to the Editor do not necessarily reflect the views of The Caldwell County staff and paper Tyrants Fellow Americans, Throughout the world, tyrants have unceasingly tried to obtain the power necessary to exert total control over their people. Sadly, America is no different. Barack Hussein Obama has systematically turned our federal government into a lethal weapon to be used against the American people. For example: • Department of Education: Forced schools to adopt Common Core standards and to allow transgender kids to use whatever bathroom they want under threat of a lawsuit or defunding! • Department of Health and Human Services: Forced Obamacare on all Americans under penalty of law at the cost of $10 trillion! • Department of Housing and Urban Development: Forced affluent communities to build low-income housing for inner-city people based on “fairness”! • Department of Justice: (way too many to list them all) Refused to enforce federal immigration laws and sued states who took enforcement action! Forced overbearing and costly standards on local police departments under threat of a lawsuit or defunding! Unlawfully allowed assault weapons to fall into the hands of Mexican drug lords hoping it would escalate gun violence on the southern border. With increased violence, the feds could justify imposing strict anti-gun laws on law-abiding Americans! Sadly, one Border Patrol officer was killed with no one held accountable! Created “civil rights” for LGBT people while suppressing the rights of religious individuals/groups! • Department of State: Deliberately destabilized the Middle East, leading to the Arab Spring and the unlawful military strikes in Libya. Conducted an illegal gun-running operation in Benghazi, Libya, in which 4 Americans died and top government officials (Obama and Hillary Clinton) lied! • Internal Revenue Service: Unlawfully delayed/denied tax-exempt status to conservative “tea party” groups since 2010! To date, IRS officials continue to stonewall the investigation! • National Security Agency: Unlawfully collected phone data from Americans! When the scheme was discovered, top agency officials lied to Congressional investigators with no one held accountable! • Environmental Protection Agency: Overregulation of oil and coal companies make it too costly to operate, driving them out of business. Instead, our tax dollars are being spent to subsidize cost-ineffective windmills and electric cars, which the majority of Americans don’t want! These agencies/departments did not act on their own, but upon orders by their iron-fisted boss, (our king and tyrant) Obama! Learn more at www.thehill.com, www. theblaze.com, and www.pjmedia.com. We must learn the truth and unite against tyranny! May God bless you and the United States of America!

Hawkins said the people there grow coffee, which is very good, at the base of the mountain. They also grow sugar cane, coconuts and make really good cigars. Hawkins has lived in Nicaragua for one and a half years. While there on his first mission he met his wife Lila, who was his translator. When Zach returned home, they corresponded on facebook.

They are now back in Missouri to stay for awhile and they have a baby on the way. “Thank God for changing my life,” said Zach. He said the people are very friendly in Nicaragua and they tried to talk to the mission group with limited English. Zach is the son of Mike and Tammy Hawkins and a 2011 Braymer High School graduate.

The Caldwell County News May 18, 2016 - Page 5 Area Graduations Penney High seniors prepare to give family and friends sunflowers during graduation exercises. Shawn Coats guest speaker at graduation Braymer C-4 Graduation Braymer seniors celebrate after receiving their diplomas Hamilton seniors sing with the choir one last time. Joni Nelson gives her mother a hug and a rose during graduation. Madison Mallory shares a hug with her mother and presents her with a rose. Shawn Coats, Ag teacher at Braymer C-4, gave the commencement address to a packed house Sunday afternoon, May 15. Coats talked to the seniors about a life of service. He told the seniors, “We all have to serve to move forward in life.” “What are people going to say about your service and what did you teach the next generation?” Coats said, “Serve the Lord, you cannot carry your life alone, don’t become a damaged or lost soul.” “You need to see all the snakes hidden in the grass...so mow the grass.” He went on to say jealousy will ruin you. Prepare yourself emotionally and spirtually for life. He said to remember there is a physical life and a spirtual life and they cannot be separated. Coats told the students, there are a lot of parachutes in your life to serve and help you, so ask for help when it’s needed.
