MINERAL SPRINGS - The Mineral Springs School
District will begin construction on a new high
school later this year. Architect Craig Boone of
Architecture Plus said preliminary drawings are
continuing to be tweaked by school district officials. He said there are certain components that
are required by the state department of education
to be included in construction plans. The estimated
twenty million dollar project will include a new
gymnasium. Boone confirmed the building will be
located across from the current campus, in front
of the current high school. The administration
building and ABC/Headstart area will be torn down
to make room for the new construction. Mineral
Springs School Board members purchased one
residence, located behind the bus area, for $160,500
during a Monday meeting. The eight tenths of an
acre will also be included in the construction, which
when finished will be about a 100,000 square foot
facility. An aerial survey of the property has been
completed and crews will begin clearing the land in
June. Applications for the position of construction
manager are due on Jan. 27. Superintendent Curtis
Turner says school will continue as normal for both

Auburn offensive line coach J.B. Grimes

Auburn offensive line
coach J.B. Grimes is leaving
after three seasons to take
the same position at Cincinnati, a source told AL.com
Monday morning.
Grimes was not officially
offered the job on former
Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville’s staff in Cincinnati
until this morning, according
to the source. The two met
for a two-hour interview at
the annual American Football Coaches Association
Convention in San Antonio
on Sunday.
Grimes’ son, Nick, is a
graduate assistant coaching tight ends at Cincinnati,
which recently hired Miami
Dolphins offensive coordinator Zac Taylor, according to
multiple reports.
“I want to thank J.B.
Grimes for his hard work
and dedication the last three
years at Auburn,” Auburn
coach Gus Malzahn said in a
release. “He is a true professional and a big-time coach.
We wish him and his family
nothing but the best with his
new job.”

DIERKS - The Dierks City
Council not only held their
regular monthly meeting on
Monday evening, but also
called a special meeting concerning water, sewer, and
sanitation rate increases to be
held the following night.
At Monday’s regularly
scheduled meeting, two main
points were discussed.
Mayor Terry Mounts relayed to the council that Dierks will not receive government
money for “disaster relief.”
The council was hoping to
receive government funds
to repair damage at the park
that was caused by the recent
thunderstorms, but it was
determined that the damage
was not extensive enough to
warrant receiving help from
the government.
Following this news, the
mayor gave a short report on
the sewer lagoon that the city
has been anticipating.
He began by stating that
the ADEQ requires the sewer
lagoon to be completed by
Dec. 31 of this year. However,
two steps must be taken beforehand: The council must
submit a water / sewer rate

Mineral Springs continues to
make improvements to city
JONATHAN CANADAY
MINERAL SPRINGS - The city
of Mineral Springs is continuing to make improvements in
several areas and is looking
forward to a great 2016. Mayor
Bobby Tullis says the city recently paid off a fire truck and
has also caught up on all water
and sewer audits. Many of the
2015 city improvements can be
seen at the park and in recent
road improvements.
Mayor Tullis said he would
like to thank the state highway
department for enlarging the
access to Sherman Street off of
Highway 27 and to North Street
off Highway 355.
“They put in new culverts
there and widened the road to
make a better entrance there.
The state aid road program enabled us to get almost two miles
of city streets paved in 2015. We
paid off a million dollar sewer
bond, make improvements to
the park, and remodel city hall.
The library moved into the
renovated town depot, across
from city hall, and the police
department moved their offices
into the former library space.”
Tullis said he hopes to continue upgrading the city infrastructure this year.
“We will be repairing water
and sewer lines mostly. The
city condemned two old buildings, those lots will be cleaned
up this year. I’d like to continue
that progress and clean up the

State฀ of฀ the฀ Union฀ address฀

the฀ rhetoric฀ and฀ feel-good฀

than฀it฀was฀seven฀years฀ago.฀
Our฀economy฀is฀stagnant—
nearly฀16฀million฀Americans฀
are฀ unemployed,฀ underemployed,฀ or฀ have฀ stopped฀
looking฀ for฀ a฀ job,฀ and฀ our฀
hourly฀ wage฀ growth฀ has฀
been฀ at฀ a฀ historic฀ low฀ for฀
the฀ past฀ 6฀ years.฀ And฀ the฀
President’s฀ namesake฀ accomplishment,฀Obamacare,฀
is฀ only฀ adding฀ to฀ the฀ problem.฀Arkansas฀families฀have฀
seen฀their฀health฀insurance฀

businesses฀across฀the฀country฀are฀struggling฀to฀meet฀the฀
regulatory฀ burden฀ of฀ this฀
massive฀law.
"To฀ add฀ insult฀ to฀ injury,฀
President฀ Obama’s฀ foreign฀

Robert฀ Glover,฀ the฀ man฀
behind฀ the฀ District฀ Agricultural฀Schools.฀฀His฀1909฀legislation฀led฀to฀the฀creation฀of฀
the฀schools฀that฀eventually฀
became฀ASU,฀Arkansas฀Tech,฀
UAM,฀and฀SAU.
At฀ the฀ beginning฀ of฀ the฀
twentieth฀century,฀Arkansas฀
education฀was฀still฀in฀a฀very฀
primitive฀state.฀฀One฀man฀in฀
particular฀ brought฀ higher฀
education฀ to฀ thousands฀ of฀
Arkansans฀ in฀ an฀ unparalleled฀effort.฀฀With฀one฀piece฀
of฀legislation฀in฀1909,฀Robert฀
Glover฀introduced฀what฀became฀four฀prominent฀universities฀in฀the฀state฀and฀opened฀
limitless฀ opportunities฀ for฀
generations฀ of฀ Arkansas฀
students.
Robert฀ William฀ Glover฀
was฀ born฀ in฀ Grant฀ County฀
in฀1866฀into฀a฀family฀of฀businessmen.฀ ฀ His฀ grandfather,฀
Delaney฀ Glover,฀ had฀ run฀ a฀
successful฀ sawmill฀ in฀ Little฀
Rock฀ in฀ the฀ mid-1800s฀ before฀ moving฀ to฀ Sheridan.฀฀
His฀father,฀William฀Harrison฀
Glover,฀ had฀ fought฀ in฀ the฀
Confederate฀ Army฀ during฀
the฀ Civil฀ War฀ and฀ ran฀ his฀
own฀ sawmill฀ in฀ the฀ small฀
settlement฀of฀Philadelphia฀in฀
Grant฀County฀after฀the฀war.฀฀
His฀ younger฀ brother,฀ David฀
Glover,฀ later฀ served฀ as฀ a฀
congressman฀from฀Malvern฀
from฀1929฀to฀1935.
In฀1904,฀Robert฀Glover,฀by฀
now฀ a฀ popular฀ farmer,฀ was฀
elected฀to฀the฀irst฀of฀three฀
terms฀as฀a฀state฀representative฀ for฀ the฀ Sheridan฀ area.฀฀
While฀ he฀ did฀ not฀ have฀ any฀
formal฀ college฀ training,฀ he฀
was฀an฀avid฀reader฀and฀understood฀the฀importance฀of฀
education฀for฀the฀individual฀
and฀for฀the฀community.฀฀As฀
a฀ legislator,฀ he฀ had฀ considered฀ different฀ ways฀ to฀ help฀
education฀ in฀ the฀ state.฀ ฀ In฀
1909,฀ Glover฀ proposed฀ a฀
law฀ that฀ the฀ state฀ would฀
fund฀ four฀ new฀ agricultural฀
schools฀ across฀ Arkansas.฀฀
The฀popular฀idea฀caught฀on฀
with฀ other฀ legislators฀ and฀
Act฀100฀was฀signed฀into฀law฀
by฀Gov.฀George฀Donaghey,฀a฀
fellow฀Democrat,฀on฀April฀1.
The฀ schools฀ were฀ designed฀ to฀ train฀ future฀ Arkansas฀ farmers฀ in฀ modern฀
farming฀ techniques฀ and฀ to฀
initially฀ serve฀ as฀ college฀
preparatory฀academies.฀฀The฀
schools฀would฀be฀placed฀in฀
the฀four฀corners฀of฀the฀state฀
to฀give฀as฀many฀Arkansans฀as฀
possible฀the฀opportunity฀to฀
attend.฀฀Eventually,฀the฀sites฀
for฀ the฀ four฀ schools฀ were฀

I฀am฀pleased฀to฀recognize฀
the฀efforts฀of฀the฀Arkansas฀
Department฀of฀Veterans฀Affairs฀ and฀ Director฀ Matt฀ for฀
helping฀ improve฀ the฀ lives฀
of฀ our฀ veterans฀ in฀ Arkansas.฀Until฀recently,฀veterans฀

In฀1910,฀Glover฀was฀elected฀state฀senator.฀฀He฀served฀
for฀two฀years฀before฀becoming฀ county฀ judge฀ for฀ Grant฀

was฀ ordained฀ as฀ a฀ Baptist฀
minister.฀฀He฀eventually฀gave฀
up฀ politics฀ for฀ his฀ higher฀
calling,฀ devoting฀ himself฀
exclusively฀ to฀ the฀ ministry฀
for฀decades.

as฀ well฀ as฀ a฀ teacher฀ at฀ the฀
institution.฀ ฀ When฀ the฀ college฀ closed฀ in฀ spring฀ 1934,฀
trustees฀voted฀to฀move฀the฀
The฀ goal฀ of฀ these฀ new฀
centers฀ is฀ to฀ better฀ serve฀
nearly฀ 250,000฀ veterans฀
living฀ in฀ Arkansas.฀ If฀ veterans฀were฀an฀industry,฀they฀
would฀be฀the฀fourth฀largest฀
in฀ Arkansas,฀ with฀ an฀ economic฀ impact฀ $4.5฀ billion.฀
They฀ represent฀ an฀ important฀part฀of฀our฀state฀economy฀ and฀ a฀ highly฀ skilled฀
workforce.
Most฀ importantly,฀ our฀
veterans฀ have฀ served฀ our฀
country฀ with฀ honor฀ and฀

And฀here’s฀what฀we’฀done฀

In฀ November,฀ Attorney฀

joined฀ for฀ a฀ ribbon฀ cutting฀
at฀Fayetteville’s฀new฀veteran฀
service฀ ofice.฀ This฀ center฀
will฀serve฀more฀than฀36,000฀
service฀men฀and฀women฀in฀
Northwest฀Arkansas.
In฀ December,฀ two฀ more฀
ofices฀were฀opened฀in฀and฀
Mountain฀ Home.฀ The฀ ofice฀in฀will฀serve฀Northeast฀
Arkansas—a฀ region฀ with฀
nearly฀21,000฀veterans.฀The฀
Mountain฀ Home฀ center,฀ located฀on฀the฀Arkansas฀State฀
University฀Mountain฀Home฀
Campus,฀serves฀more฀than฀
23,000฀ veterans฀ in฀ North฀
Central฀Arkansas.
This฀ month,฀ Lieutenant฀
Governor฀ Griffin฀ went฀ to฀
Fort฀Smith฀for฀the฀opening฀of฀
another฀regional฀ofice.฀This฀
marks฀ the฀ fourth฀ consecu-
institute฀to฀Little฀Rock฀where฀
it฀ reopened฀ as฀ a฀ seminary฀
that฀ fall฀ with฀ the฀ younger฀

Glover’s฀ work฀ for฀ the฀
church฀ continued฀ well฀ into฀
his฀ eighties.฀ ฀ He฀ continued฀
to฀ preach฀ in฀ Philadelphia฀
until฀ his฀ health฀ forced฀ him฀
to฀retire฀in฀1952.
He฀died฀in฀1956฀at฀the฀age฀
of฀89.฀฀While฀his฀own฀pivotal฀
role฀as฀the฀father฀of฀the฀district฀agricultural฀schools฀was฀
understated,฀ the฀ schools฀
grew฀ into฀ universities฀ respected฀across฀the฀state฀and฀
the฀ South.฀ ฀ Today,฀ the฀ four฀

Local Man Returns Home...
GLENWOOD – A local
man, for whom an unsuccessful search was conducted by local and state law
enforcement last week, has
found his way home.
Kaci Reid, a 35 years old
Glenwood resident, returned
home last Friday.
A Friday morning joint
press release from the Pike
County Sheriff’s Office
(PSCO) and Glenwood Police Department confirmed
the resolution.
“The Pike County search
for the previously reported
man -- Kaci Reid, of Glenwood, has ended safely.
On Friday, January 8, Glen-
wood Chief of Police Jerry
Lowery received confirmation from the family that
Reid voluntarily arrived at a
residence and made contact
with them. Lowery confirms
that Reid was camping and
had left the area of his own
free will. The family of Reid
has stated that they will
release a formal statement
at a later date.”
Reid was previously last
seen in the early morning
hours of December 31 on
Baker Road after having
made purchases of camping
and fishing supplies.
Lowery stated after the
disappearance that Reid
had broken no laws, and
that he evidently “just wants
to be missing … I think he’s
dropped off the grid – he
did go to Wal-Mart and purchased fishing line, fishing
tackle, a tarp, a frying pan,
Coleman stuff to cook with,
so he wants to drop off the
grid, and I think he will resurface before long.”
On Tuesday January 5,
the Arkansas State Police
(ASP) -- in combination with
the PCSO and Glenwood
Police Department – conducted a search for Reid that
included an aerial view via
ASP helicopter.
According to the PCSO,
the search was conducted
in the area most likely to
contain Reid, and all leads
in the case were exhausted
until further evidence presents itself.
The family of Reid posted
the following message on
Facebook, declaring their
thanks and asking for time
to work things out internally
as a family.
“So happy to finally be
able to update this. WE HAVE
BEEN IN CONTACT WITH
KACI TODAY AND HE IS
SAFE. I'm sure alot of you
have questions but please
give Kaci and all of us a moment to sort things out. I just
wanted everyone to know he
is ok and they can stop worrying. We are so thankful for
all of the prayers and help
from everyone involved. He
is a very loved person.”

Throughout the month of
February, we celebrate Black
History Month. Created in
1926, this event coincides
with the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln on February 12
and Frederick Douglass on
February 14. African American communities have celebrated these birthdays
together since the late 19th
century.
Honoring our shared history and reflecting on the
past is one way we unify
as a nation. We remember
that we are all Americans —
we believe in freedom and
democracy for all. Another
shared belief is that we all
deserve a comfortable retirement, free of economic
hardship.
Social Security has retirement benefits and the tools
to help you plan for your
retirement and to apply
for benefits online. We also
provide disability benefits
to individuals with medical conditions that prevent
them from working. If the disabled individual has dependent family members, they
can also receive payments.
If you or anyone you know
is disabled, they may qualify
for disability benefits. Stud-
ies show that a 20-year-old
worker has a 1-in-4 chance
of becoming disabled before
reaching full retirement age.
You can see if you meet our
strict definition of disabled
and also apply for disability
benefits at www.socialsecurity.gov/disabilityssi/apply.
html.
Widows, widowers, and
their dependent children
may be eligible for Social
Security survivors benefits.
Social Security helps by
providing income for the
families of workers who
die. In fact, 98 of every 100
children could get benefits
if a working parent dies. And
Social Security pays more
benefits to children than any
other federal program. You
can learn more about Social
Security survivors benefits
at www.socialsecurity.gov/
survivors.
Honoring each other
begins with fair and equal
treatment. Social Security
guarantees that, if you pay
into the system, you will
have the same benefits as
everyone else. This Black
History Month, we want to
make sure our diverse nation
is covered and that no one is
left out of the benefits they
deserve. Visit www.socialsecurity.gov to learn more.

increase proposal to Stephens Financial Services
in Little Rock, and the city
must pay CEA contractors
the remaining $12,500 for
their services. The mayor
asked permission to take
the $12,500 from the city’s
general fund to pay the engineers. Councilwoman Carol
Sharp made a motion to give
the mayor permission to
take money from the general
fund, Councilwoman Debbie
Brock seconded, and the
motion passed unanimously.
To end the meeting, Mayor Mounts called for a special meeting to take place
the following night at 5:30
p.m. The items of discussion at this special meeting
included water, sewer, and
sanitation rate increases.
At this meeting, Mounts
stated that the city is currently making a $40,000
yearly payment for the water plant, but must make a
$70,000 yearly payment for
its upgrade. However, the
income from the current
water rates is not enough
to make this payment. For
the first time since 2007, the
city must implement a water
rate increase in order to
compensate for this $30,000
raise. The water rate will
increase from $15 to $15.50
for a 1,000 gallon minimum.
Every thousand gallons over
this will increase from $3.66
to $4. At 604 water meters,
this should increase the
water department revenue
by $2,416 per month, or
$28,992 per year. According
to Mayor Mounts, the sewer
rates, which are included
in the water bill, must be
raised as well. The 1,000 gallon minimum will increase
to $17, and every thousand
gallons over will increase
to $3.60. On 466 customers,
this should increase revenue by $1,677 per month,
or $20,131 per year. This
brings the total increase in
revenue per year to $49,123.
Councilman John Sharp
stated that he used these
figures to predict that these
new rates would increase his
bill by about $8. Starting in
2017, the city hopes to implement a smaller percentage
increase to the water and
sewer rates each year. Finally, the mayor discussed
the sanitation department,
which brought in no income
in December. The department spent $10,084, while
it only brought in $7,331.50,
totaling a deficit of $2,700. To
remedy this, the city must
implement a rate increase
of $2 per year for five years.
To end the meeting, the
mayor asked the wishes of
the council, and a motion
was made and passed unanimously to implement these
rate increases. However,
the increases will not be
effective until the proposal
is sent to and approved by
Stephens, Inc in Arkansas.
Mayor Mounts confirmed
that this could take about
two months.

NICOLE TRACY I THE NASHVILLE NEWS
The Nashville News Publisher Mike Graves talks with Mark Barnes, with the Nashville Police Department, following the aftermath of the six vehicle accident yesterday
afternoon on Main Street.

in fewest sacks allowed in
each of the last three years.
Grimes was paid $370,000
per year at Auburn, ninth
among offensive line coaches at the 13 public schools
in the SEC.
He agreed in March to a
contract extension through
June 2017, according to
paperwork obtained by
AL.com.
Cincinnati offensive line
coach Darren Hiller earned
$180,000 this year, according
to USA Today.
The Arkansas native battled cancer and is back home
today to face Arkansas, the
team standing in the way of
a three-game winning streak
for Auburn.
Grimes coached four seasons
under Malzahn beginning in 2012
at Arkansas State and followed
him to Auburn, where he helped
develop Greg Robinson into the
second-overall pick in the 2014
sha Worley’s (ad manager)
car and Michael Graves’
(Publisher) truck, Quick
explained.
The officer added that
Snell was transported by
ambulance to Howard Memorial Hospital and that
Pearson, 28, of Nashville
“was issued a citation for
no proof of insurance and
was charged with refusal to
submit to a chemical test.”
Pearson was cited and
released that day.
Vehicles involved in the
accident, include:
Brittney Pearson – Ve-
NFL Draft.
Center Reese Dismukes won
the Rimington Trophy in 2014
and early entrant Shon Coleman
could be picked in the early
rounds of the upcoming draft.
Right tackle Avery Young has
not yet announced whether he
will forgo his senior season, but
he, too, could be drafted in April.
Grimes had a cancer scare
before the 2015 season and
underwent surgery to remove a
cancerous spot on his tongue in
late July. Doctors also removed
his lymph nodes as a precautionary measure.
A heavily bandaged Grimes
returned to the practice field six
days later to conduct drills with
his offensive line in early August.
“J.B.’s probably the toughest coach in college football,”
Auburn coach Gus Malzahn said
at the time.
Potential candidates to replace Grimes, the first change
to Auburn’s offensive coaching
staff in Malzahn’s tenure as head
coach, include Penn State offensive line coach Herb Hand, who
is close friends with Malzahn,
and Arkansas State offensive line
coach Glen Elarbee.
Malzahn and Hand designed
offenses together as co-coordinators at Tulsa, during which the
Golden Hurricane led the nation
in offense in both 2007 and 2008.
Hand is credited with implementing zone-read concepts
with Malzahn’s Hurry-Up, NoHuddle offense.
Grimes is the fourth assistant
coach to leave Auburn this offseason.
Will Muschamp left his role
as defensive coordinator to become head coach of South Carolina last month and defensive
backs coach Travaris Robinson
and outside linebackers coach
Lance Thompson joined his
staff along with analysts Bobby
Bentley and Kyle Krantz.
Malzahn hired Kevin Steele
as defensive coordinator last
month and brought in former
New Orleans Saints secondary
coach Wesley McGriff to be
co-defensive coordinator and
secondary coach and promoted
defensive analyst Travis Williams to linebackers coach on
Thursday.

remembering a Civil rights pioneer
Each January, Americans
remember and reflect on the
life of a man who stood up
for his rights and the rights
of millions of American citizens. Martin Luther King, Jr.,
ultimately lost his life fighting for the rights of black
Americans, and his courage
is celebrated every year on
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
was a Baptist minister and
a social rights activist who
helped shape the American
Civil Rights movement in
the 1950s and 1960s. King
seemed destined for greatness at an early age and
studied medicine and law
at Morehouse College. However, he chose to follow in
his father’s footsteps and
make a career out of his
beliefs and religion. According to History.com, King
entered Crozer Theological
Seminary in Pennsylvania,
where he earned a Bachelor
of Divinity degree, won a
prestigious fellowship and
was elected president of his
predominantly white senior
class.
Spurred on by social unrest and race discrimination,
King’s theology began to
intertwine with his advocacy
for the African-American
population. His style was
peaceful protest, including boycotts, marches and
empowered speeches. His
ideals reflected his Christianity, while his operational
techniques stemmed from
Gandhi. King traveled over
six million miles and spoke
over twenty-five hundred
times, appearing wherever
there was injustice, protest,
and action. In addition, King
authored five books and
numerous articles.
King is perhaps best
known for his historic March
on Washington, which drew
more than 200,000 people to
the Lincoln Memorial. The
location was symbolic, as
former president Abraham
Lincoln also was an advocate for blacks living in the
United States. It was here
that King made his famous
“I Have a Dream” speech,
emphasizing his belief that
someday all men could be
brothers.
Each year on or about his
birthday on January 15, the
United States celebrates the
life of Martin Luther King, Jr.,
one of its greatest and most
influential citizens.
Programs.....
Pastor Dwight Burks and the members of Wiley Chapel
United Methodist Church would like to invite everyone to
come and worship with them during their Black History
program.
The program will be held on Jan. 24 at 2:30 p.m. at the
Wiley Chapel United Methodist Church, located in Clow.
For more information, contact Alzean Stewart at 8451179.
Ninth Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration
is scheduled Mon., Jan. 18 at 6 p.m. at the New Light
C.M.E. Church located at 1301 S. Mill St in Nashville.
The 2016 theme, “If Not Now, Then When” will feature
pastor, Jamie Erby of Rebecca Baptist Church of Hayworth, OK as the guest speaker.
The Alston Award is given at programs nationwide to
honor Miriam Alston and the group of slaves she freed.
One award is given to the community member living or
working in Howard County who most effectively exemplifies the characteristics demonstrated by Dr. King.
Nominations for the 2016 award may be given by
calling or submitting a written one to Jimmie White at
(870)451-1090 or Geneva Walton (870) 845-2050.
Area churches, community members, students,
family and friends are asked to attend and support the
event with a tribute of their choice to the program.
There were no formal invitations sent.
We Will Be Closed Monday, January 18th, in

What you should know about new
dietary guidelines
JeAN
INCe
County Extension
Agent Staff Chair
The “New” Dietary Guidelines for Americans were
released last week. Every
five years, the Department of
Agriculture and the Department of Health and Human
Services review the current dietary guidelines and
determine what changes, if
any, need to be made to help
people improve their overall
health through the foods
they eat. The new guidelines
focus on helping Americans
reduce obesity and prevent
chronic diseases; such as
hypertension and Type 2 diabetes. The 2015-2020 Dietary
Guidelines for Americans use
scientific evidence-based nutrition recommendations to
help people make informed
choices about their diet.
Here are some suggestions
from the 2015-2020 Dietary
Guidelines for Americans.
Eating healthy is a lifelong
lifestyle. Eating healthy over
a person’s lifetime helps to
prevent chronic disease like
obesity, heart disease, high
blood pressure, and Type 2
diabetes. If you have recently
found out you have one of
these health concerns, start
now by following a healthy
eating pattern.
The Dietary Guidelines
can help you make informed
choices about what to eat
and serve to you and your
family. Some of the major
suggestions are to increase
fruits and vegetables in your
diet, especially fresh fruits
and vegetables. Choose a
variety of colors - looking
for dark red and dark green
vegetables to increase. Make
half of your grain choices
whole grains. Read food
labels to determine if whole
grains are listed as the first
The Nashville News | Online at http://www.swarkansasnews.com | Call: 1-888-845-6397 | Thursday, January 14, 2016
ingredient. If so, then that
food is a good choice.
Choose low-fat or fat-free
dairy products to eat and
cook with. Protein foods are
important in the diet too.
Choose lean cuts of meat and
poultry, eggs, dried beans
and peas, seafood, soy products, and nuts and seeds.
Oils to use include canola,
corn, olive, peanut, safflower,
soybean and sunflower.
Limit the amount of sugar
in your diet to 10 percent
of your daily calorie needs.
This does not include naturally occurring sugars such
as those found in milk and
fruits. Healthy eating patterns should limit saturated
and trans fats. Less than 10
percent of your daily calories
should come from saturated
fats. Foods that are high in
saturated fats include butter,
whole milk, meats, and tropical oils such as coconut and
palm oil. Replace saturated
fats with canola or olive oil.
Adults and children ages
14 years and over should
limit sodium to less than
2,300 mg per day. Younger
children should consume
less. Again check for sodium
amounts on the nutrition
facts label on food products.
Even small changes in
the diet can help over the
long run. Try to make small
changes such as cutting
back on the amount of sodas
you drink over a week or a
day. Start by making small
changes and working toward
a healthy eating pattern that
works for you. Exercise is
still very important. Physical
activity on a regular basis is
one of the most important
things you can do to improve
your health. Adults need at
least 150 minutes of moderate intensity exercise, such
as walking each week. Adults
are also encouraged to add
strength training exercises
two to three times a week.
Children ages six to 17 need
at least 60 minutes of physical activity per day.
Making small changes
is something everyone can
do. This includes the individual, at home, schools,
workplaces, communities
and even grocery stores.
Changes can include adding
new vegetables or increasing
the number of vegetables
served and eaten at home.
Schools can help by making
healthy food selections available for lunch and increasing
physical activity. At work,
look for healthy food options
in vending machines or bring
a healthy lunch and snacks.
Workplaces can promote
physical activity and other
wellness programs for their
employees.
In Howard County our
communities are doing a
great job by making fresh
fruits and vegetables that
are in season available at
the farmers market and community gardens. There are
numerous walking trails and
opportunities to increase
physical activity through
organized programs and the
parks system. Even grocery
stores can make sure there
are several healthy food options available to consumers
and provide opportunities to
try new products.
When you first look at the
2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines
for Americans, you may not
notice a lot of changes. And
you may be saying I don’t see
anything new. The changes
are small, and the overall
message has remained the
same – develop a healthy
eating pattern that you can

Winter has finally arrived with beauty and special family activities. Many families look forward
to this time of year to participate in special activities, with football and tailgating being one of the
favorites.
Some like to go camping, and I can’t imagine why.
My family went camping years ago, but I was not
one to participate willingly, but would occasionally
go along to keep the peace. Sometimes you just
have to be a team player with activities that are
not your favorite.
The library in this area, located in Ben Lomond,
closed its doors at the end of the year. It seems that
it was not used to the fullest capacity. I am sure that
there were not many people in the area that knew
the library was there.
It could have been most people in this hi-tech
age have their own computer and didn’t use it as
much as needed.
It would have been good to keep it open and
introduce the children back to books.
We now have children in the community and the
school bus has resumed its pick up, again. We are
still a growing community.
Prayers are requested for our sick and shut-ins.
Lela James in the nursing facility, Ernest Greenlee
at home, and Sylvester Crosslin at St. Michael
hospital. Also for our Country and its citizens, and
for Israel.
Condolences to the family of Ruth Ann Loggings,
Chicago, IL. Formally from the Gravel Hill community, who passed away on Monday. We pray for your
strength during this time of separation.
CHRISTIAN REFRESHER: PHILLIPIANS 3:13-15
KJV
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended, but this one thing I do, forgetting those
things which are behind, and reaching forth unto
those things which are before.
I press toward the mark for the prize of the high
calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus
minded; and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded,
God shall reveal even this unto you.
