These Jessie D. Lay preschool students listen as teacher Becky Blevins reads to them. A new state report says only 1 of 3 Knox County students are ready for Kindergarten. Studies show students like these that complete Preschool or a Head Start are much more likely to succeed academically than other children. BY JAY NOLAN Publisher “Please, get your children into Preschool or Head Start.” That plea from Jessie D. Lay elementary principal Jeff Frost points to one solution for what is a major local problem. Our youngest children are unprepared for school, according to state figures. In fact, the Kentucky Governor’s office of early childhood and Kentucky Center for Education and workforce statistics released a report this week that paints a sad profile of children in Knox County. Specifically, it states: •Two out of every three children here that start Kindergarten are rated not ready. This is far below the state average of 50%. •In the academic/cognitive area, Knox children are 7% below their state peers. In physical develop• ment, we are 9% lower. Only 41.9% are average or above, compared to 50.1% statewide. “Kindergarten is now an academic level,” Says Becky Blevins, a preschool teacher on Frost’s staff. She nods as fellow preschool teacher Mary Jane Callihan explains, “The social interaction skills, structural routine and academic basics like learning letters and numbers, all taught in preschool and head start, are critical to early educational success.” “Also, communications with other kids and adults - language skills - are key,” adds principal Frost. But while over 80% of Knox county 4 year olds qualify for admission to Preschool or a head start program (based on the family meeting the financial screen for free or reduced lunch), many parents don’t send their child. Why? •73 of every 1000 of our “When looking at the 3 and 4 year olds are born data, it is important to re- to 15-19 year old mothers. member that enrollment This is significantly higher in preschool is through an compared to 43 per thouapplication and screening sand statewide. • 28.8% are born to process, not all students qualify for preschool and non-high school graduare given the additional ad- ate moms compared to vantage of preschool.

Knox Count TRACKING LYNN CAMP Man dead following Three-mile track to encompass both campuses TRACK RENDITION COURTESY OF CODY DIXON BY BOBBIE POYNTER Editor Following in the footsteps of other Knox County schools that have recently installed quarter-mile walking tracks, the Lynn Camp community wants to build one of its own. However, this track, which will incorporate both school campuses and much more, will be a full three-mile, 8 to 10-foot wide, asphalt trail. “We already have the farm, the playground expansion, the new gym and even the older track at the elementary school,” said Lynn Camp Principal Anthony Pennington. “We want to tie the two campuses into one, to draw the schools and the community together. The idea is to improve the overall culture of the community. You improve your culture, you improve your academics.” Gina Johnson, Community Education Director for Knox County Schools is applying for a grant from the Department for Local Government to pay for the new track. The approved grant could be up to a $10,000 matching grant, which means the community will have to match whatever amount the state approves. The idea is for the track to be more than just a walking track. It will be a shared use track, encompassing bicycles, skateboards, runners, baby strollers and will also be handicapped accessible. The grant application will include money for signs, rest areas, and at least one water fountain and restroom. “This is a great way to use the track for multi-purposes,” said Lynn Camp Coach David Bullard. “Originally, we had plans to make a cross-country track around the two schools. This is even better. You do it for cross-country and everything else would fit. We can even incorporate the track into our Project Fit program.” The three-mile track will run from the circle at the front of the middle/high school, behind the Cleaning up downtown BY BOBBIE POYNTER Editor What looked like a pleasant Monday afternoon stroll through town turned out to be so much more. Debby Spencer of “We Make Things Happen,” Patty Frazier, Scot Clouse, Dennis Mills were conducting a walkabout of the downtown area of Barbourville as part of Tourism’s Strategic Plan for Barbourville. The group was looking for specific ways to improve the overall look of the streets, sidewalks and buildings themselves. Below is a list of the good and not-so-good points the group observed during its walk: • Intersection of Liberty & High Streets • Need crosswalks added. • Need street repair on Liberty Street next to Thelma’s and Parking Lot. • Need to add planter in Visitor Center front parking lot. • Bank driveway on High Street needs some work. • Intersection of Main Street and High Street • Sidewalks are in good shape • All four corners are ADA SEE TRACK, PAGE 3A PHOTO BY BOBBIE POYNTER • Need repair work on southeast corner of High Street and Main • Around the Square • Awnings need cleaning SEE DOWNTOWN, PAGE 3A BY DEAN MANNING For the Mountain Advocate A Woodbine man was killed Tuesday night when he was thrown from his motorcycle after colliding with an SUV on Ky. 3436 in Knox County. Twenty-one-year-old Michael Caldwell was pronounced dead at the scene near Dugger Cemetery Road. The passenger on the motor- cycle, 29-year-old Jamie Sibley, who was also thrown clear following the impact, was airlifted to the University of Tennessee Medical Center. Kentucky State Police Trooper Shane Jacobs, public affairs officer at Post 10 in Harlan, said the wreck occurred at 5:37 p.m. Caldwell was travelling east on his Honda CVR 600 and came SEE CRASH, PAGE 3A Vehicle registration about to change BY BOBBIE POYNTER Editor Dennis Mills (on ladder), Scot Clouse and Debby Spencer test an awning on the side of the Mountain Advocate’s building to see if it can be cleaned without destroying the fabric. Cleaning the awnings up and down the streets is only a small part of Barbourville Tourism’s plan for revitalizing downtown. motorcycle crash The Knox County Clerk’s Office will soon implement what the Commonwealth calls a time- and cost-saving change in the vehicle registration system. The new vehicle registration system is changing to “print on demand” decals for license plate renewals. Rather than stocking booklets of preprinted decals, the new decals will be printed at the time of registration. “I’ve seen it, and the only thing it does is replace the books of stickers,” said Knox County Clerk Mike Corey. “We already have the equipment, but nothing has been set up yet. We understand it’s supposed to be up and running by the end of April.” For the public, the most noticeable change is that decals will no longer be color-coded by year. The new decals will have black lettering on a white background. The year and month of registration expiration will be in bold numbers, with the license plate number associated with the registered vehicle printed on the bottom. The decals are printed on the registration receipt with a special feature that allows them to be peeled off and applied to a license plate. Both Knox County Sheriff Mike Smith and Barbourville Police Chief Winston Tye, up until now, say that as far as they know, law enforcement is as yet unaware of the change taking effect. “We’ll adapt and do our best,” said Sheriff Smith. “The color coded tags were a dead giveaway. Now, we’ll have to depend on what we find when we have reason to run a tag.” The registration receipt also is changing appearance. Gone is the traditional blue and white paper. Certificates now will be on 8 1/2-inch by 11-inch white paper. Although the look is different, information on the certificate is the same. The new decals and registration receipts are already in use in several counties, with full implementation in all 120 counties expected by the end of April. Customers with the old registration decals will keep them until they expire. “From the customer standpoint, there will be no difference,” said Corey. People will not have to pay any more or any less. There will be no extra fees. The assessment on the car will not change. The change to printon-demand decals and registrations is part of a comprehensive overhaul SEE VEHICLE, PAGE 3A 2A n Thursday, March 26, 2015 n THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE GFWC hosts Interclub meeting PHOTOS SUBMITTED Above: GFWC Barbourville Junior Woman's Study Club.

BY DEAN MANNING For the Mountain Advocate Smiles, laughs, good food, fellowship, entertainment, and awards filled the evening of March 17 at the Patridge Room of Union College. The annual GFWC Barbourville Woman’s Study Clubs Interclub Dinner was held with approximately 50 ladies in attendance. The group was entertained by Alex Peyton. Dinner of tossed salad, Asiago chicken with pasta, grilled beef tenderloin, oven-roasted red skin potatoes, broccoli spears, corn, rolls, chocolate mousse and lemon meringue pie was provided by Union College food service. Beth Callihan had adorned the tables with St. Patrick’s Day hats filled with green and white dé- cor and shamrock plants. These were later given as door prizes. Special guest Chrissi Cuel, Ninth District Governor, spoke to the group about her special project of assisting the Knox –Whitley Animal Shelter. Chris- si shared that since the shelter had burned in November of 2013 that many things were needed. She had helped to raise more than $1,200 for the shelter. She also encouraged adopting pets, donating money and pet supplies, and even volunteering to go to the shelter and help with pet care. Chrissi also gave Club members information on the importance of spaying. Farmers’ Market: new home, new changes BY BOBBIE POYNTER Editor It won’t be long before local farmers will begin selling their fresh produce. And on Thursday, May 7, the Knox County Extension Office will be the place to be. That’s the day the Knox County Farmers’ Market will officially open at its new location from 5-8 p.m. From that week on, the market will be open every Thursday through Oct. 1. On Thursday, March 19, the Farmers’ Market Board of Directors held a vendor’s meeting at the Extension Office. Sharon Spencer of the Kentucky Department of Agriculture gave the more than two dozen prospective vendors great ideas on for better market sales and how to make their customers feel more comfortable. “The more comfortable your customers feel, the lon- ger they will stick around,” said Spencer. She added, “Customers are also drawn to a colorful stand with produce stacked at various levels, preferably tilted toward them so they can see better.” Spencer urged the vendors to join Kentucky Proud, a free program that advertises processed, grown, raised, packaged or manufactured goods in Kentucky. Being a member of the program affords farmers I-75 at Laurel-Whitley county line reduced to one lane Lane reductions necessary for bridge inspections Special to the Mountain Advocate The right or “slow” lane of Interstate 75 northbound at the Laurel-Whitley County line (mile point 27.9) will be closed on Tuesday, March 24, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. EDT for bridge inspections. Crews will also close the right or “slow” lane of I-75 southbound at mile point 27.9 on the following day, Wednesday, March 25 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. EDT to complete the inspections. Motorists are asked to use caution when approaching and traveling through the work zone and be prepared for possible delays due to the lane closure. Further, March 23-29 is Work Zone Safety Awareness Week and KYTC urges all motorists to use extra caution and slow down in work zones. The date and duration of this work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen delays occur.

They could also apply to Appalachia Proud, for anyone living in the specified area or Homegrown by Heroes, a veterans-only program. A big change for the Farmers’ Market, besides its new home, is that this year patrons will be able to use debit, credit and even EBT cards through the SNAP program. Customers will swipe their cards at a specified tent for a certain dollar amount in exchange for an equal amount of tokens, which can then be spent throughout the market. The vendors will then be reimbursed for the tokens collected throughout the evening. To help cover the operational and advertising costs to run the market, vendors were notified they will have to pay a $3-per-market or a $50 sea- A 10-year-old Rockholds boy was killed Monday when he was hit by a school bus. The boy was scheduled to go to Lexington Saturday for a shopping trip through the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Officials with Make-AWish’s Louisville office said Jonathan A. Chatham, who had previously won a battle against Leukemia, wanted to shop for electronic items, including an X-Box. Heather Powers, who knew the family through Pleasant Grove Baptist Church, said Chatham’s Leukemia had been in remission for about a year after two years of treatment at the University of Kentucky Cancer Center. Powers recalled taking Chatham and his family to Lexington for his treatments, explaining how well mannered Jonathan was. “I will never forget after chemo he always wanted to go to Wendy’s and get two junior bacon cheeseburgers, chicken nuggets, and a big frosty, but always ate every bite of it,” Powers said. “We are all just heartbroken,” she said. Powers added that Jonathan enjoyed being outside. When he couldn’t do that, he could be found playing with his Pokemon cards or playing video games. “They are pretty much in shock,” Powers said of the family. Pleasant Grove Baptist Church is accepting donations for the family. The phone number at the church is 549-0652. In addition, an account has been established at gofund- me.com. The account is titled R.I.P. Jonathan Chatham The fourth-grade student at Whitley North Elementary School had just gotten off the bus about 4:20 p.m. Monday near his home on Ky. 779 with three other children. Kentucky State Police stated that as the bus began moving away from the stop, Chatham darted back in front of it and was struck and killed. Whitley County Coroner J. Andrew Croley said it is unknown why Chatham crossed back into the path of the bus. Whitley County School officials identified the bus driver as 33-year-old Amanda Woliver. Woliver has driven a bus for more than two years. “During this time she has driven an average of over 120 miles per day incident free and has driven for numerous field trips and extracurricular activities both during the school day and after,” officials stated. Whitley County Schools Transportation Director Bobby Blakley stated that Woliver’s training and physicals are all up to date. “Amanda has always been a good employee,” Blakley stated. An investigation into the bus, driver records, maintenance records and bus inspection sheets by the Kentucky Department of Education’s Pupil Transportation Department has found everything to be in order. Woliver has been placed on paid suspension while Kentucky State Police complete the investigation. Police do not expect drugs or alcohol were factors in the accident. Officials at the scene said there were approximately 20 other children on the bus at the time. A second bus was brought in to finish the route. Parents and guardians were notified and children were released to their custody. Whitley County Sheriff Colan Harrell, who was assisting at the scene, was charged with taking several of the students home, including one that suffered a panic attack. Whitley County Schools Superintendent Scott Paul and other school system administrators also responded to the scene. Classes for the Whitley County School System were canceled for Tuesday. A grief counselor will ride the bus on that route today. In addition, there will be grief counselors available at Whitley North Elementary. Whitley County officials said the grief counselors will be available at the school for as long as the students need their services. “The Whitley County School District would like to thank all those who have offered their support and services during this time of mourning and grieving,” officials stated. “Please continue to keep all those involved in your thoughts and prayers during the difficult days ahead.” KSP Trooper Craig Reed is continuing the investigation. He was assisted at the scene by Troopers from Post 11, Kentucky Vehicle Enforcement Officers, Kentucky State Police Collision Analysis Officer Jerry Jones, Whitley County Sheriff ’s Office, Whitley County EMS and Woodbine Fire Department. responsible for the cleanup of their general area. The use of tobacco products will be strictly prohibited in the area designated as the Farmers’ Market. All produce sold at the Knox County Farmers’ Market will be locally grown and no sale of commercially made products will be allowed. As if there are not enough good additions to the Farmers’ Market, this year there will be the addition of craft booths, as well as local non-profit organizations who may set up a booth as a fundraising event. “Everything has fallen into place, and we’re expecting a Farmers’ Market that will be at least twice the size of last year’s,” said Scot Clouse, marketing manager for the Farmers’ Market. “It’s a win for the farmers and the community as well.” Barbourville Utilities Commission Child killed by school bus BY DEAN MANNING For the Mountain Advocate sonal fee. Kathryn Engle spoke for the board as she told the vendors that the Knox County Farmers’ Market has incorporated into a non-profit organization this year. “We want to build on the success of last year,” she said. There will be a limit as to how far vendors can come to set up at this year’s market. There was no limit at last year’s market, since organizers had no idea how many vendors would show. But, this year is a different story. Organizers are confident there are plenty of local farmers to fill the space. “We want to give our farmers first priority,” said Board President Grant Baker. Space assignment at the market will be on a first come, first served basis. Vendors will supply their own shelter or tents and tables and will be March 23, 2015 Barbourville Cable TV Subscribers: MarchAttention 23, 2015 In an effort to improve our internet service, we will be making the following changes to our cable channel lineup: ATTENTION BARBOURVILLE CABLE TV SUBSCRIBERS Program Old Channel New Channel MyTVQ2 75 98 CwKYT 76 5 In an effort to improve our internet service, we will Lifetime Movies 77 75 TruTV 76 cable channel be making the following 78 changes to our lineup: Once these changes take effect, you may need to rescan your television sets.

Only 33.4% of math and 39.1% of reading students here scored proficient or distinguished in 2013-2014. The statewide scores are 45.8 and 54.1% respectively, according to the report.

Shelton replies that, “In Knox County we started a blended preschool program this year with three of our preschool programs in conjunction with KCEOC Headstart. These sites at Lynn Camp, Dewitt, and Girdler ensure that our students receive an early childhood education with highly qualified faculty and an aligned curriculum in partnership with KCEOC. The remaining programs in our schools are also staffed with highly qualified, certified staff who are well trained for early education.” To view the full report, go to our website at www. mountainadvocate.com, or visit http://kentuckyp20. ky.gov/reports/EarlyChildhoodProfiles/EarlyChildhood2015.aspx “Remember,” Johnson reminded everyone. “The community must be committed to this for it to be plausible.

Downtown Revitalization holds first meeting PHOTO BY BOBBIE POYNTER Ethan Hamblin discusses Hazard’s downtown revitalization project at the first Barbourville Mainstreet/Downtown Revitalization meeting. BY MICHAELA MILLER For the Mountain Advocate A diverse group of people, including business owners, organization representatives, community leaders, farmers, and town residents, all came to the library Tuesday for the first Downtown Revitalization meeting of the year. Guest speaker Ethan Hamblin, from Gays Creek, Ky, talked about InVision Hazard, a project created for the city’s downtown revitalization. Hamblin discussed organizations in Hazard, such as the Appalachian Arts Alliance and Pathfinders of Perry County, that have come together to make the project work. Hamblin is a graduate from Berea College with a degree in Appalachian Studies. “New York didn’t need my talents, but Hazard did,” Hamblin said as he explained why he returned home after college. Tourism Director Denise Wainscott invited Hamblin to the meeting in the hopes that Barbourville will adopt some of the same ideas. Hamblin invited everyone to an event in Hazard that lets people from the Appalachian region experience downtown revitalization efforts and learn what made them successful. The event will take place June 3, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The next meeting will be held April 21, at noon with a location to be announced later.

Neighbors said it is not uncommon for motorcycles and other vehicles to come speeding along the stretch of roadway and be forced to hit their brakes hard when they reach the curves. “The motorcycle riders will pop wheelies through here,” said one neighbor who noted she had installed a fence in the front yard to protect her children from reckless drivers. “They need to post some speed limit signs and patrol this area more.” Jacobs said a KSP accident reconstructionist has been called to investigate.

Yes, it can. Consumers all across Kentucky are about to be penalized by the United States Postal Service. Why? Because the USPS has already implemented plans that will soon close every major automated mail-processing facility in the state! And despite what postal officials put on their briefing charts to Congress, here in the real world, when processing facilities close, it takes longer for your mail to be delivered. Not that long ago, the US Post Office moved our local SCF bulk mail-processing center from London to Knoxville. Mail processing times locally went from 1 day to 2- 3 days officially. But what really happened? “Hundreds of area customers have called and canceled their subscription. I have multiple customers complaining it takes them a week to get their mail now,” said Mollie Hale, circulation manager at the Mountain Advocate in Barbourville. Sadly, it’s not just newspapers that are impacted. The local utility company tells me they also have seen the number of customers paying late increase dramatically since the processing center moved to Knoxville. From the Publisher Jay Nolan [email protected] Longer mail processing times hurt everyone. They can cause your credit card payment, utility bill, or other mailed payment to be late. And we all know how expensive late fees, late charges and interest penalties are, especially to folks on a fixed income and who can’t afford or have no access to broadband Internet service. Legal clients and their attorneys also are at risk if mail is not delivered promptly. Still, the USPS has already stripped automated mail processing equipment from a lot of other cities besides London. Bowling Green, Glasgow and others have been closed. My newspaper colleagues there say they saw similar results. Now the plan is to completely “gut” Kentucky of any processing centers. Lexington’s functions will go to Cincinnati, Ohio. Louisville mail will ship to Evansville in Indiana for processing. That’s why I and several other Kentucky Press Associate leaders trav- eled to Washington, DC last week. We explained this to staff members in Senator Mitch McConnell’s office, Congressman Hal Rodgers and his staff, and to staff for Congressman Ed Whitfield exactly how this will hurt Kentucky. They asked us to get “specific examples.” So, I am asking for your help. Can you send me a “specific example” of when your mail was delivered multiple days after the postmark? Has late delivery cost you money? Is timely mail service important? What do you think?

I’m currently in a federal prison away from Kentucky. I was raised in Brown’s Branch. When I get the paper here, a lot of people from big areas say, “Man, that’s a small paper.” I say, “Can you say you know where all of these places are?” I can even look at the arrests and say I know fifty percent of the people arrested. I say this is my town. You guys have all those great officials there, like Mike Corey, Gilbert Holland, and Bill Oxendine, great people that go out of their way to do their job. I loved those columns you used to print, like back when 25, 50, 100 years ago, and the ones where you do a story on a really old photo somewhere in the Knox county area. I always wished you would do one on Brown’s Branch or “Brown’s Hollow” (as most people know it). I just want to say I’m proud of my state, proud of my county, and I miss it more and more everyday. I made some mistakes late in life and I’ve paid for them to my county. I’m sorry, and I ask for a second chance to live there and be a positive role model for our future generations. I love your paper, it’s the highlight of my week. Thanks, JIMMY BROWN EDGEFIELD, S.C.

The larger man jumps out of the BY DEAN MANNING For the Mountain Advocate Corbin Police are asking for the public’s help to find the individuals who broke into Sav-Rite Pharmacy in Corbin Sunday morning and made off with a bin full of narcotics. Corbin Police Detective-Lt. Rusty Hedrick said the two masked individuals are believed to be white males, one about 6 feet driver’s seat and goes to the door where he uses a crowbar to pry it open. The other man, who has been waiting with the back seat door open, jumps out with a blue Rubbermaid tote and enters the store while the driver remains outside on lookout. Hedrick said the driver has a walkie-talkie in his hand and is seen on video using it several times. “We think there may have been a third individual involved serving as a lookout somewhere nearby,” Hedrick said. Video inside the store shows the other man busting open a locked cabinet containing narcotics and cleaning it out into the tote. “He is in and out in about three minutes,” Hedrick said. Once outside, the men jump back into the vehicle and drive off east on Masters Street toward U.S. 25E. The license plate, even the state, is not visible in the video. Hedrick said his investigation has turned up three similar burglaries within the last three months. The first occurred on Jan. 7 in Florence, Ala. The second occurred in Clarksville, Tenn. on Feb. 4. The most recent was Feb. 26 in Lexington. In January 2014, Stephanie’s Down Home Pharmacy was burglarized in a similar manner. The getaway vehicle in that burglary was a Chrysler 300 with spoked wheels. Anyone with information is asked to contact Corbin Police at 528-1122. Callers may remain anonymous. JASON BAILEY KYLE REEL Knox County Deputy Keith Liford received a call Tuesday of men wearing hoodies carrying items out of a residence on KY 3438 in Cannon. When Deputy Liford arrived at the scene he observed Kyle Reel, 21, of Barbourville, and Jason Bailey, 34, of Barbourville, coming out of the res- idence carrying property items. Deputy Liford arrested Kyle Reel and Jason Bailey charging them with second degree burglary and second degree criminal trespass. Both men were lodged in the Knox County Detention Center. The investigation is continuing. PREPARATION AND PLANNING When it comes to planning for an appointment, dinner, event, or a situation I am a mixture of activities. One part of me begins immediately to organize things in my head from what is necessary to make this happen to what would be really neat to make a part of this ‘planning’ that isn’t a requirement. The other mixture of my activities is a do nothing attitude. Just sit back and relax, things will take care of themselves, there is no need to plan or make any arrangements. Depending upon which of these two attitudes we choose to embrace we have no doubt had enough experience with both to know they have a different impact totally. Charles R. Swindoll said that, “Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% of how you react. “This statement represents a decision that I am suggesting is made long before we find ourselves at the hour of decision. If you and I live our lives without any fore thought about possibilities, opportunities, choices, solutions or answers, then our odds of displaying the appropriate attitude for the situation we face is greatly diminished. Planning is an important part of life and more especially it is our preparation for planning. Preparation is that which we do before hand. Preparation considers options and impacts in addition to outcomes and follow-ups. Preparation is the key to all our future decisions and only once time has passed are we able to evaluation, look back and reflect upon the manner and way we lived. Life I am suggesting is about planning and planned reactions help us to remain stable when all the planning around us seems to have disappeared. In November of 2014 I faced a decision about preparation and planning. In life I have never planned or prepared for a stubbed toe. Honestly I cannot even remember the last FAMILY PRACTICE Barbourville Family Health Center Until Then Rev. Tim H. Mills person I spoke with about a stubbed toe situation. Seems like I can remember my parents yelling at when I was a growing up as a child, running through the house, or on the porch to be careful or I might stub my toe. Reflecting back on that childhood memory I cannot remember my parents having a follow-up conversation about this either. Maybe I missed that because I continued to run and play? It’s possible this happened. No matter what the facts are regarding my memory or the possibilities of that moment back then, planning for a stubbed toe never made it to my personal radar of a danger zone. Planning for all the possible individual dangers one might face in life would be an exhausting work that I doubt could ever be completed because the list would be ever growing. My parents were successful in teaching me in a broad way about preparation for planning and the merits of the practice of planning. Principles my parents taught included personal responsibility, ideas of fate, destiny, leadership, faith and the difference between quantity and quality of life. These lessons learned over the years became in time my foundation. What was my parents planning and preparation became my tools for reaction to life experiences, which includes even a stubbed toe. Events, situations, moments and even things in life can quickly get out of hand and leave us spinning around seemingly out of control. My preparation and planning for life includes the fact that I am not in control. Life is a vapor of time that quickly passes. DENTIST 215 N. Allison Ave., Barbourville, KY 40706 Our best planning is to be prepared for immediate changes that I see as opportunities to demonstrate faith not hopelessness. Despair is no road I travel because the Bible says “there is a time and purpose for everything,” which includes sickness and no answers. The Bible also says that “He does all things well in His time” and that is His planning not mine. If living life is 10% of what happens to me then I personally can live with that percentage. Agreeing that 90% of life is how I react to it means that I cannot afford to get this part of my life wrong. I believe the words found in the Book of Romans 8:28. My preparation and planning includes the fact that where He, Jesus is concerned, I don’t have to worry or fret because I choose His plan over mine every time.

For the last two years, they have been living in a camper on his son’s property. Unfortunately, the camper leaks horribly and has accumulated black mold, creating a very unsafe living condition. Due to the mold, they (along with seven other people) are currently staying in his son’s home. A glance at his home will tell you that it was not designed to hold nine people.” Evans added, “John is known for being faithful to his local church. He has one of the most tender servant hearts I have ever come across. He didn’t ask for us to do this, but I know he needs it. We plan make it just big enough to maintain him and his daughter. She can finish up her last year of school, and he can finish out the remainder of his days. According to Evans, John has recently found out that he has cancer, along with other medical concerns. Because of his age, these are making life and survival more difficult for him. “We are simply burdened...burdened to take action and do something God-sized for John and his daughter,” Evans declared. “We are going to build this one way or another. We do need the community to help us. This house build will be the first of many. If you feel moved to volunteer to help us work, let me know and you can become part of our amazing missional opportunity. The build dates are scheduled from April 15-17. Volunteers need to sign up by April 6. Readers can contact Jeremiah Evans at (606) 622-1336 or by e-mailing him at pastorjeremiah. [email protected]. THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE n Thursday, March 26, 2015 n 7A GFWC Club women recognized for years of service PHOTOS BY CLAUDIA GIBSON Above: Betty Cole, center, congratulates the members who have served more than 30 years, Judy Wilson and Jane Skidmore. At right: Barbourville Woman’s Club President Betty Cole congratulates members who have served 50+ years, Jane Blair, Elizabeth Davies, Barbara Black, and Carolyn Congleton. BY CLAUDIA GREENWOOD For the Mountain Advocate Nearly 100,000 members strong, the General Federation of Women’s Clubs are united in dedication to volunteer community service. While diverse in age, interests, and experiences, all clubwomen are united by a desire to create positive change in their communities. Founded in 1890, GFWC’s roots can be traced back to 1868 when Jane Cunningham Croly, a professional journalist, attempted to attend a dinner at an all-male press club honoring British novelist Charles Dickens. Croly was denied admittance based upon her gender, and in response, formed a woman’s club— Sorosis. In celebration of Sorosis’ 21st anniversary in 1889, Jane Croly invited women’s clubs throughout the United States to pursue the cause of federation by attending a convention in New York City. On April 24, 1890, 63 clubs officially formed the General Federation of Women’s Club by ratifying the GFWC constitution. Even though our local GFWC Clubs do not date back to 1890, we do have ladies who have served their community for many years through our local Woman’s Study Club. At a recent joint meeting of Barbourville’s three Woman’s Study Clubs, the following people were recognized for their many years of dedicated service to the organization and thus in turn to our community. Following is a list of local members who have served more than 50 years and the year that they joined the Federation: Elizabeth Davies, 1938; Jane Blair, 1952; Barbara Black, 1953; and Carolyn Congleton, 1962. Members who have served more than 30 years are: Jane Skidmore, 1978; Judy Wilson, 1978; Janet Hyde, 1978; Sharon Boggs, 1979; Ethel Stark, 1979; and Paula Frase, 1982.

Barrett joins Wayne Kirby, the Knox County Ag Agent for Agriculture and Natural Resources and Renata Farmer, Extension Agent for 4-H/Youth Development. “An extension agent is simply a UK-sponsored teacher who ‘extends’ out into the community to instruct the public in his or her specific area of expertise, “ Barrett explained. Barrett’s expertise affords her the chance to work in a variety of capacities at the extension office, including food safety, canning, as well as family finance and budgeting. But that’s just the beginning of her duties. “I love Appalachia,” she said. “I’m a community servant, and I’m here to help people.” True to her word, on the second Monday of the month at 10 a.m., Barrett holds a free repurposing class called Make it Monday, where the participants bring in an unused household item and make something new out of it. Beginning March 23, she started a Lunch and Learn food demonstration and nutrition class. These free classes will continue at 1 p.m. on the fourth Monday of the month. Occasionally, Barrett will schedule an interesting day trip that is open to the general public. Barrett heads up a new group, Pinterest Pals, a personalized health and wealth program at 6 p.m. the third Thursday of the month. Each meeting includes a Pinterest-inspired activity. Barrett also works with the Redbud Trails Quilting Guild the third Tuesday of the month at 10 a.m. and the Town and Country Homemakers at 1 p.m. the third Thursday. “I have a wonderful group of ladies,” said Barrett. “They’ve adopted me into their family. They are very special to me already.” As if her schedule is not busy enough, Barrett keeps her extension Facebook site upto-date with listings of upcoming classes and organization meetings, not to mention daily tips for the family. She has a monthly newsletter that can either be accessed on the extension office’s website at knox.ca.uky.edu or you can call her at the extension office and have a copy mailed directly to you. Barrett and husband James, an IT support tech for the University of Kentucky Hospital, are newlyweds who will soon celebrate their first anniversary. Anyone wishing to learn more about the extension office’s classes or day trips, the homemakers, or quilting guild can reach her at the Knox County Extension Office at 546-3447 or e-mail her at danielle.barrett@ uky.edu. hard work and dedication both in preparing for and competing in these events,” said Jennifer Brock, an advisor for the Knox HOSA chapter.

Davies turns 104 PHOTO BY CLAUDIA GREENWOOD It is not often that you get to celebrate with someone who is turning one hundred four years old, but that is exactly what a large group of Barbourville Study Club Women did recently. Ms. Elizabeth Davies has a birthday on April 19. She was honored with a birthday song and a cake at the recent GFWC Barbourville Woman’s Clubs Interclub Dinner. Ms. Davies thanked people and said “Oh how nice!” Barbourville is thankful to have this special citizen still attending civic club meetings. New non-profit to help repair homes BY DAVID STEWART For the Mountain Advocate Jeremiah Evans, (former youth pastor and founder of Connection Point Church) is the “point” person bringing the idea of LIVE-IT to the Knox County area. “I have been in this community for seven years and am aware of some heart piercing truths,” said Evans. 38,000 people live here, and 34% are found to be struggling below the poverty line. The median income earners in this area are not very far from that either. That’s almost 13,000 people. Digging a little deeper, I found that 29% or almost 3,800 of these people are over the age of 65. Although, 85% of those 3,800 people own their own home, they simply are unable to afford upkeep and maintenance. “Now, add this to the fact that 19% of the county is made up of single parent households, (60% of them are female.) They, too, fall under the poverty line. “Now…why are all these percentages and statistics important,” he asked. “Because, there is a new non-profit organization coming to town known as LIVE-IT. This organization focuses on repairing homes and uplifting the lives of the very people revealed in the heart of those statistics. “In other words, LIVEIT becomes aware of the need, then communicates with local churches, business and individuals concerning the need. LIVE-IT then organizes, funds and helps to provide manpower to accomplish meeting these needs. LIVE-IT can become a phenomenal community builder!” Jeremiah Evans, Executive Director of LIVE-IT Knox County, has a huge dream and desire for Knox County: “Imagine living in a county where churches, businesses, and individuals come together to make a difference for those in need by LIVE-IT volunteers help to repair a home. simply ‘loving their neighbors.’” LIVE-IT simply becomes the central hub that unifies the community to take physical action to meet the needs of those in our community. “We envision communities where everyone loves their neighbors and there are no needs PHOTO SUBMITTED among them,” said Evans. In order to enhance the financial opportunity to serve this community, LIVE-IT also will be opening a LIVE-IT Thrift Store on Knox Street across the Knox County funeral home. This thrift store will be sustained by the community donating items to be sold in order to gain proceeds to be used for repair projects. Evans said, “In order for LIVE-IT to thrive and be successful, it will need the community to jump on board. Here are some ways individuals and groups can LIVE-IT with us:” 1.Look for those in need within your community and send them to us to apply for help. We prioritize needs by widows and orphans, single moms, elderly, handicapped, and veterans. All applicants must be low income. The need can be home repair, yard work, or other things they may need help with. We are not going to be able to pay any of their bills. 2.Invest by giving or donating to LIVE-IT. Thrift store items: clothes, furniture, appliances, knickknacks, kitchen cooking utensils, electronics, as well as any home building materials. 3.Volunteer! Volunteer your time on a project, helping in the thrift store. Also, you can volunteer to be a part of a store launch team to help ready the store for its opening! 4.Encourage others to come along with you. Share about LIVE-IT to help get the word out. If you are a church, club or business and would like for us to come share how you can get involved and help, please contact us. 5.Also, become a partner with us by being a monthly donor or by giving a one-time charitable gift. All donations will be accounted for and are fully tax deductible. An unnamed supporter mused, “It is so nice to know that by donating to this local non-profit organization that the proceeds will go right back into this local community.” Readers can contact Jeremiah Evans by calling (606) 622-1336 or emailing him at jevans@ live-it.tv. “Any form of support, will be put to great use,” said Evans. 8A n Thursday, March 26, 2015 n THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE © 2015 © 2015 Baptist Baptist Health Health LET’S LET’S GIVE GIVE DOCTORS DOCTORS A A HEALTHY HEALTHY DOSE DOSE OF OF “THANK “THANK YOU.” YOU.” DOCTORS’ DOCTORS’ DAY DAY IS IS MONDAY, MONDAY, MARCH MARCH 30 30 In recognition of Doctors’ Day 2015, Baptist Health would like to express our In recognition of Doctors’ Day 2015, Baptist Health would like to express our sincerest gratitude to our physicians, whose daily dedication to the health of sincerest gratitude to our physicians, whose daily dedication to the health of our patients makes our community a better place to live.

LaKylla Medlin pitched a complete game going wire to wire while giving up only three walks and striking out 11 Tigers in seven innings. The Wildcats jumped out to an early lead scoring six runs in the first three innings. A two-run single by Karley Rickett and a two-run triple by Summar Gregory during the first inning and a tworun single by Medlin in the second inning supplied the early offense for the Wildcats. Barbourville rallied in the bottom of the fourth inning behind a two out, two RBI long drive to center field to cut the Lynn Camp lead to four at 7-3. Taylor Logan hit a shot down the first base line to put runners at the corners but the rally stalled when Lynn Camp’s Medlin struck out Barbourville Junior Paije Tye to end the fourth inning. Barbourville held Lynn Camp in check during the fifth inning. Pitcher Taylor Logan struck out Lynn Camp’s Brandy Hall and gave up two hits before a base running error by Kourtnie Mills ended the inning.

MONTREAT, N.C. - The Union College baseball team took an early lead and never looked back in a 7-3 victory at Montreat (N.C.) on Sunday, as the Bulldogs completed a three-game sweep of the weekend Appalachian Athletic Conference series between the schools. With the victory, Union has now won six straight to push their record on the year to 18-5 overall, 8-1 in the AAC, as the Bulldogs are now tied atop the AAC standings with Tennessee Wesleyan. Montreat fell to 7-20, 0-10 in the AAC with the losses.

In the frame, John Wilson (SR/Manchester, Ky.) had an RBI single that knocked home Justin Elder (SR/Seven Mile, Ohio) (who began the game with a leadoff walk), then Zach Dillman (SR/Cincinnati, Ohio) brought home Nelson Price(SR/Burkesville, Ky.) on a fielders choice, making the score 2-0 in Union’s favor.

Host Dave Shuffett will meet some of the many partners that make the organization a success and get hands-on along the way. The program follows action during several PRIDE initiatives and captures the fun as school children discover environmental education in nature’s classroom – the great big outdoors.

According to the race director, Randy Brock, the majority of the proceeds will be donated to a regional medical team who travels regularly to the African nation to provide free medical care as well as donate shoes and clothing. “We are just happy to have this opportunity to help people in need and do something we love at the same time. When you look at some of the pictures the team brought back, you realize how much they struggle and how blessed we are to live in this country,” Brock said. Pineville native Shannon Smith, owner and co-founder of the primary race sponsor Anesthesia Associates Of Appalachia, is one of the members of the Kenyan relief team. She said volunteering in Kenya has changed her perspective on giving and life in general. “We don’t realize how fortunate we are to have clothes on our backs, shoes to wear and food to eat whenever we want it. We are thrilled to partner with The Vibe 5 and hope this race is a huge success,” Smith said. The Vibe 5 Glow Run will be held at the Levi Jackson State Park in London on Saturday April 18th. Registration will begin at 6pm and the race is scheduled to kick off around eight pm. In addition there will be a 12 x 12 mega screen, glow after party, and best glow costume contest.

Lenda-Hand Center is located in the Stinking Creek flood plain, so we are accustomed to rising water. We even have markers and names for the various danger water problems. There are times when the creek is full, which means it is up to the level of the field. Then it becomes a “high tide” when it breaks over the low places along the bank, which is usually an entry way into the creek. When it comes sneaking into the bottom of the field, we know the Cumberland River is full and backs up Stinking Creek, which then spills over the bank coming up the creek. We don’t mind that so much as it usually leaves a deposit of silt and leaves that enrich the soil. When the river goes down, the water is pulled rather gently out. However, when the creek breaks across the bank from the upper side the current is much stronger and can be quite destructive. It builds up and the current gets stronger and stronger, causing a “stalk chaser” or a “gully washer,” which can cause considerable trouble as it literally chases everything in its path and doesn’t hesitate to form new paths or gullies. In the 50’s and 60’s before we had roads up out of the creeks we just knew we would probably encounter large rocks or washout in our paths which would have to be dealt with before we Stinking Creek News Irma Gall Lend-A-Hand Center could navigate our vehicle through. That which we call a “flood” when it washes our bridges out and road banks away would be a “Big Flood.” I have encountered two huge floods in 1957 and again in 1977. I have heard about the flood in 1946 that started the movement toward flood walls around our towns. We have had many more floods than those which were destructive. In the 70’s before we had mandatory garbage pickup, a flood would decorate our barb fences and low hanging branches with disposable diapers—we called it the Stinking Creek Spanish moss. What fun that was to clean up. I guess that was a sign of progress but we did not find it a welcome change. A few weeks ago during that wintry spell, all of upper Stinking Creek lost our county water supply. Several groups, like Red Cross and the county officers, brought truck loads of plastic water bottles and gave them out free to anyone that did not have access to good drinking and cooking water. I remember being thankful for the water, but our suppliers brought thousands of those little plastic bottles. I made the comment, “Just wait until the first high water and we will be blest by those plastic bottles in our pasture.” A few days later we did have a big tide that turned into a good sized flood. However, I have yet to see many of those bottles in the field; maybe they washed farther down. Or better still, maybe people above us did not discard them where they would wash away. Then I could say “Praise the Lord!” Crossword Solution Confessions of a Baking Queen Crossword Puzzle THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE n Thursday, March 26, 2015 n 7B ARRESTS Monday 3/16 Brandy Michelle Bailey, 29, Woodbine; served warrant.
