Maddison Crabtree’s entry in the pumpkin decorating contest won “Resident’s Choice.” A fatality accident occurred Wednesday evening on US Highway 75 one half mile north of Calvin at approximately 9:20 p.m. According to a report from the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, Brenda Ammons, 54, Tecumseh, expired at the scene due to massive injuries. Mary McDonald, 53, Tecumseh, was not injured. The driver of the second vehicle, Rebecca Hill, 45, Wetumka was not injured. The OHP report states that Ammons and McDonald were traveling northbound on US 75 in a 1998 Mitsubishi. The vehicle was having mechanical problems and attempted to turn around on the bridge but became disabled in the middle of the roadway, blocking the southbound lane. The driver and passenger were attempting to push the vehicle off of the bridge when it was struck by a 2012 Hyundai driven by Hill. The impact caused the Mitsubishi to spin, knocking Ammons off of the bridge. The report states that the weather was clear at the time of the accident. Hill was wearing her seatbelt and the vehicle’s airbag deployed. The cause of the collision is pending investigation. The accident was investigated by Trooper Brian Iker of the Hughes County Detachment, assisted by Trooper Daniel Martin, both of Troop D.

His 1997 Nissan pickup truck crossed the centerline and struck a 2007 Chevrolet pickup truck, a 2013 Dodge pickup truck towing a boat, and a 2011 Chevrolet four-door car. Wynewood resident Wendell Potter, 53, was driving the Chevy pickup truck; Roff resident James Pope, 49, was driving the Dodge pickup; and 32-year-old Stratford resident Amber Edition was in the Chevy four-door.

C ountry Comments by Bill Robinson, Publisher Ten years ago, Oklahoma voters took to the polls to approve State Question 711, then known as a marriage protection law. The question was approved by 75 percent of voters. Ten years later, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals struck down this law, now commonly referred to as a “ban on gay marriage.” As announced last week, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear the appeal of this decision, and related ones, and same-sex unions can now legally proceed apace in Oklahoma and presumably elsewhere. What a difference 10 years can make! Responses from Christians and defenders of natural marriage were immediately heard. Southern Baptist ethics aficionado, Russell D. Moore, said the decision was momentous, but directed Christians toward a balanced response. He said, “The Supreme Court can do many things, but the Supreme Court cannot get Jesus back into His cemetery plot. Our model here ought to be the best aspects of the prolife movement. Were there angry people who were anti-abortion who simply wanted the ‘wedge issue’ in order to differentiate themselves from their opponents? I’m sure there were. But the primary thrust of the movement wasn’t about culture wars, but cultural persuasion.” Oklahoma Baptist leader, Anthony L. Jordan, said this: “It is truly a shame that the Courts of the land have gone against God’s Word, thousands of years of tradition pertaining to the meaning of marriage, as well as the will of the people in this state and others. But we are confident, in the end, God’s law remains, and we will move forward in humility and prayer toward building a positive culture of marriage.” Each of these comments express disappointment, but confidence, and that is the way I feel as well. In some ways, this is a culturally pivotal moment that we all thought was coming. In other ways, only time will tell how many people will actually apply for these same-sex “marriages” and how these arrangements will affect others. What we do know is that no ruling can rightly redefine something God originally designed and made. Marriage, by its very nature, is the sacred union between one man and one woman, primarily for the procreation of the human race and as the building block for the family. We also know that marriage is a beautiful expres- sion of the Gospel. Therefore, in these positive ways, we need to stop defending marriage and start promoting it. In other words, if we truly believe marriage is worth saving, we ought to start building a positive culture around Christian marriage and live by example. In the end, that will speak more loudly to our neighbors than any Court ruling and be more enduring than any political maneuver. — Brian Hobbs The Baptist Messenger —CC— The dramatic non-decision by the Supreme Court of the United States marks one of the most historic events in American history. B ecause the Supr eme Court refused to hear cases from the lower courts, which had struck down laws prohibiting same-sex marriage in several states, same-sex marriage became legal immediately in those states. Same-sex marriage will now become the rule of law in America. This non-decision was one of the most sweeping decisions in our history. Once again courts— not votes of the people or legislatures—have made decisions that enact laws, which has been the increasing position of courts in the last few decades. This non-decision came as a surprise, but there is no reason to think the outcome would have been different if the issue had been placed before the court. So what should biblical Christians do in response? Protest? Wail? Bite our fingernails in despair? Rail about the moral decline in our nation? Oh, I suppose we will do some of all of the above and more, but to do so will change nothing. I would propose a more excellent way. Stand on the truth of God’s Word. As Christians, we need not be surprised that the culture rejects biblical Christianity. The world has always rejected uncomfortable truth, and we need not forget that the world crucified our Savior. Truth is not defined by legislatures, Congress, presidents, or courts. Truth is divine revelation from God. Truth is not the thoughts of man, but the revealed truth of God. Therefore, our position regarding homosexuality or same-sex marriage finds its definition in the infallible and inerrant Word. The truth is uncomplicated and straight-forward—marriage is between a man and a woman for life. Love all people. This is a tough task. People who do not like the message often do not like the messenger. Yet, our task is to love all people all the time. Whether they are homosexual or straight, same-sex couples or opposite-sex couples, it does not matter. Our speaking of truth in regard to their lifestyle must never be snide, harsh, or uncaring. We must follow Jesus. He spoke truth, yet the vilest sinners felt conviction, not condemnation. Yes, some homosexual or same-sex couples will not allow us to speak truth to them whether in love or otherwise. We just must be sure their deaf ear is not because of our unkindness or bad attitude. The path forward will not be easy. For more than 200 years we have enjoyed a nation dominated by the Christian worldview. This worldview has been slipping away for numerous reasons, not the least of which is the spiritual weakness and lethargy of the church. Cultural Christianity, which is not Christianity at all, has become far too prevalent in the church. When the church becomes the holy body of Christ followers in word and in deed, our message lands on target. Revival in the church will change things quicker than favorable laws or court decisions. Share the Gospel. Our culture is changed one person at a time when the work of the Gospel becomes reality in people’s lives. The Good News reveals THE ALLEN ADVOCATE, OCTOBER 23, 2014 -PAGE 3 the bad news—the Gospel transforms. The quickest way to d eal w ith th e homosexual and same-sex marriage issue is through the Gospel. Internal change can transform the most hardened sinner, no matter what the sin. The message of the Cross cleanses and brings newness of life. If you want to see the moral climate of America change, pray diligently for spiritual awakening and become a consistent, bold witness of the saving grace of Jesus. No, I am not going to bite my fingernails nor shout at the darkness; nor should you. Let’s stand on the truth of God’s Word and refuse to compromise. Love all people all the time. Pray for God to show up and show out among us in purifying fire. Tell the Good News to everyone. That’s the path forward whether it is samesex marriage or any other breach of the Christian worldview. — Anthony L.

So I stopped writing this column and went to check out those closets and see what I could give away. In one closet there are two beautiful tops that belonged to my oldest sister. They are too large for me, however, I just can’t seem to get rid of them. I have worn them a few times over sleeveless blouses. I have received compliments on them each time they have been worn. I have two other tops that belonged to another sister. I have not worn either one of these for at least three years so I left them in the closet. There were two tops that I used when I gave style shows showing my Indian Patchwork Designs. I brought them out to another closet that I mostly use and made a vow to wear them once in a while. I cannot give them up yet. I have some ensembles that I used when I was doing style shows. They are ankle length and beautiful. They are in my colors, which is pastel. I am a pastel person. Those colors look better on me. However, since they are not Indian colors there will be no sale for them. They are beautiful designs but not in colors that I can sell at an Indian Museum. I may be able to use them in a quilt. I have a short skirt with a beautiful Spider Web design that was my Square Dance Skirt. It is worth at least $125 dollars but I can’t sell it. I don’t square dance anymore but no one wants that skirt. In an estate sale it may bring twenty or thirty dollars. If I take the design off the skirt and sell it as yardage, it would probably sell for its worth; for one hundred twenty-five or a price similar to that. It is in Indian colors so I believe it would sell by itself but not in that short skirt. I have three beautiful long formal dresses that many years ago I wore to formal dinners. I haven’t been to a formal dinner for fifteen to twenty years, but those dresses are still in my closet, in dress bags, of course. While in the closet checking out clothes, I found a box of Christmas glasses. I think they belong to a granddaughter. I have never used them and I don’t remember her ever showing them to me. That box has been on an upper shelf for several years. By checking out things today, I am convinced it is time to go through those closets and get rid of some things. How? By a yard sale or just take them to a church that can give them away? Rites held for James Byrd Effie T. Stewart Byrd.

I don’t know but it was there for sure back in the 1930s and if it had eyes and ear and a mouth it could tell a lot of tales. Sitting there on Main Street in Centrahoma still plumb and upright the old gas station is now home to the Centrahoma Café. I sometimes see things like they were instead of how they are—a sure sign of old age. That building and the old Billy Moore home are about all that’s left facing the now defunct highway that used to usher people and commerce through the little town. Old highway 3 is now just a county road. A guy named Hogue (he don’t mind talking to you) occupies the old Moore home and life goes on in Tiny Centrahoma. I took my family over Centrahoma, the catfish town there to this busy little café last week to enjoy some catfish (chicken strips for the little girls) and conversation and fun for all. The large brick building that once stood on the other side of the street used to house a bank and Smith’s store. The bank was robbed and cleaned out during the great depression leaving the town in even worse straits than it had been. The masked gunman took his ill-gotten gains and rode away on a horse—the last known bank robbery in Oklahoma in which the bad guy made his get-a-way on horseback. No tag numbers I guess and besides, that’s another story. A long story at that. The Post Office and Bullard’s Grocery buildings are long gone as well as Light from God’s Word Mark Legg “Casual” is the word! The trend in Christianity today seems to be “casual.” We are to be casual with our religious beliefs and not take them too seriously! To be accepted, it seems that preaching needs to be “casual.” The word can mean careless, nonchalant, informal, superficially or relaxed. It seems that we do not want religion to be demanding or exacting of us. We even want to dress casual! Can our relationship with God be taken casually – superficially and nonchalant, without giving attention to details? When we assembly to worship God, are we not drawing near to God to pay Him homage, honor and glory? Can we enter into God’s presence with a casual, relaxed attitude, as if visiting an old familiar friend or buddy? Surely there is something very if we are going to leave our mark someplace besides on a tombstone. While you’re still thinking about that be sure and have a good weekend and enjoy this beautiful fall weather. It’s a good time to go to church too—maybe make a mark down there. Wayne Bullard, DPh special about coming into God’s presence? How can we be casual, nonchalant or relaxed in the presence of the One who created us and who has the power of life over us? Can we be casual with Him who has turned His face from us because of our sins? And, can we be casual with Him who because of the blackness of our hearts can justly allow us to suffer eternally in hell? Can we be casual and nonchalant in the presence of Him who gave His pure sinless Son as a sacrifice to die in our stead so that we might live eternally? Let’s test this concept of “casual” by God’s word. The Apostle Peter wrote, “Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure.” (2 Peter 1:10) He did not encourage us to be casual, but to be “diligence.” And, certainly, Jesus did not encourage us to be casual when He said, “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able.” (Luke 13:24) There is nothing more serious or important than our relation with God!! Billy Moore’s Store. Just a bunch of memories of what had been there in a little place called Centrahoma. The school folded up in the 1950s and someone stuck a match to it and now it too is gone without a trace. There are few signs of the old railroad track that ran right through town. The railroad still hauled some freight from places like Atoka to Oklahoma City and a little Trolley made it’s trip every day providing transportation for locals to places like Ada or Coalgate (or beyond). We called it the Dinky. When Mr. Smith put his little “bus” flag out the bus would stop and take you aboard for distant places. Its route took it from Hugo to Oklahoma City and I guess it hauled a lot more away than it hauled in. One way or another people left in droves after the big war started. My grandpa said they would all come back looking for their plows and a living after the conflict was over—but they never did. Today, Centrahoma is just one of many thousands of small towns across America that have virtually vanished. But you can still find this little place. It’s not like my brother Gerald said: “Hey! They moved the whole town north of here.” No, they just moved the highway over—an act that just drove yet another nail into the coffin of the future of Centrahoma. Some towns have disappeared completely. You just can’t hardly find them. Towns like Citra, Jaydee, Leader, Nuyaka, Sealey and Victor, to name a few are hard to find at all. A cemetery may well be all that’s left to indicate that live and breathing people once lived what we suppose were good and decent lives. I still enjoy poking around the grounds of some of these places stoking up memories of days gone by. And I still marvel that so many people could have lived here, made a living, went to church and school and how the land has pretty well erased all traces of their being. Well—the graveyards are still there. But we all better get busy [email protected] 3.5” x 2.5” | Maximum Font Size: 30 pt CD coming due? Compare our rates.

It is one of the most beautiful songs in the hymn book and, as always, Joyce certainly did it justice. Rev. Karch’s message was from Isaiah, chapter 6, and was titled “Steps to Spreading the Gospel.” It first requires that, like any good sports team, we be prepared mentally and committed to our goal. Step 1 is the cleansing of our lives. God will change our lives if we ask him to do this. We then prepare to live each day by praying and reading scripture. People should see that our actions, speech, and attitude bear witness to our relationship with Jesus. Step 2 is to be willing and available to do God’s work. You do not need to own a firearm to take the class. Lori Jackson for Associate District Judge On November 4th we will go to the polls to vote on several matters, one of which is the Associate District Judge for Pontotoc County. Earlier this year, the Honorable Martha Kilgore retired and the voters will fill her position. I hope to be the new Associate District Court Judge; this is something I have aspired to for a number of years. My undergraduate degree is from East Central University where I obtained a major in psychology and a minor in legal studies. I have been a sole practitioner in Ada since I graduated from law school in 1995. One of the things I am most proud of is that I have been mentored by some of Ada’s finest attorneys. Without their guidance I wouldn’t be the lawyer I am today. I am grateful to each one of these gentlemen. Like physicians, many attorneys focus their practice in specific areas. For 19 years my practice has focused on matters affecting families such as adoptions, grandparents’ rights, divorce, custody, guardianships of vulnerable adults as well as children, cases involving deprived children who are in the State’s custody, bankruptcy, probate, small claims, mental health cases, real estate transactions and general civil litigation. I am an experienced trial lawyer in each of these areas. The Associate District Judge is traditionally the “family court judge” in Pontotoc County and I my experience as a lawyer has made me ready to step into that role. I am married to Mike Jackson who was born and raised in this area. Mike served in both the Air Force and Army during the Vietnam era. He is a member of the Delaware Tribe of Indians. Mike is employed by First United Bank and Trust Co. I have two step-daughters, Kara and Kursten, and two grandsons, Cason and Spencer. Of course, our little family wouldn’t be complete without Vince, our miniature schnauzer. Mike and I enjoy East Central athletics, the OKC Thunder, OKC Barons hockey and we love to ride motorcycles. I will appreciate your vote on Tuesday, November 4th. Respectfully, Lori Jackson.

Diligently keeping our lives and attitudes clean and continuing with scripture reading and prayer are continually needed. Step 3 is don’t quit until there is no one on earth left to tell about Jesus and no one who has not accepted Jesus as their savior. Atwood Nazarene News Sunday our pastor was out of town, so Rev. Lowell Churchill and his wife Kaylene, filled in for him. The Churchills were our church family in 1978. We have fond memories of them and their children. We had a large group of children and enjoyed hearing them sing. We especially enjoyed having Bethany Chandler sing “Jesus Loves Me”. A new group consisting of Gary, Tochie, Jeff, Matt and Ken sang “What a Day That Will Be.” We have a lot of musical talent in the church. Saturday Trisha will be having a children’s Halloween party at her house at 2:00. It is a community event so everyone is invited. Sunday night at 4:00 we will have our annual hayride and wiener roast. Meet at the church. We want to encourage you to come to our “Fall Festival” on Saturday, November 1st, from 9 till 2. We will have lots of vendors with many new items that we have not had before. Come at noon and eat dinner with us. We will have soups, chili and lots of desserts.

THE ALLEN ADVOCATE, OCTOBER 23, 2014 -PAGE 7 www.adadodge.com Proud Sponsor of Allen Mustang Football 1109 N Broadway Ave., Ada, OK 74820 t up to $10,000 Off Joe Howshar #70, Patrick Leonard #3 and Dakota Nickell wrap up the Maud ball carrier in last week’s game. Mustangs eager to bounce back at Maysville By HERMAN BROWN Allen correspondent The Allen Mustangs will attempt to get back on track this week in the District B-2 campaign. Coach Kenny Deaton’s AHS squad will travel to Maysville Friday evening to play the Warriors in a pivotal league game. Maysville enters the showdown with a 7-0 record overall and 6-0 in the district race. The Warriors are coming off a 58-6 victory over Cyril. Allen stumbled last Thursday – falling 22-14 to the visiting Maud Tigers. The Mustangs are now 5-2 overall and 4-2 in the league race. AHS has fallen to Alex and Maud. Coach Deaton’s team needs to sweep the final three games to finish in second place in the B-2 standings. That would earn the Mustangs a home game to start the playoffs – and a game against a third-play finisher in the other district. If Allen loses any more games, the squad would likely tumbled to third or fourth place – and be forced to travel to an opponent’s home field to begin postseason action. In last week’s game, Allen fell behind 14-0 in the first quarter. Maud scored on touchdown runs of 2 yards and 1 yard and added a 2-point conversion to go up 14-0. Allen fought back with a touchdown in the second quarter. Justin Deaton linked up Dakota Nickell on a 39-yard scoring pass at the 11:04 mark. Deaton added the 2-point conversion on a quarterback keeper to cut the deficit to 14-8 going into the mid-game break. Allen added another TD late in the third quarter. Mustang running back Dalton James galloped into the end zone on a 6-yard scoring run at 3:10. The tally tied the game at 1414. The Mustangs had a chance to take the lead with a successful conversion play. However, they failed on the go-ahead attempt on an incomplete pass. When the fourth quarter opened, the game was still tied and up for grabs. Maud finally finished an offensive series with a 40yard touchdown run with 4:43 left to play. The Tigers also tacked on a 2-point conversion run to extend the advantage to 22-14. Allen had two more offensive series in the final minutes. However, the Mustangs were unable to stage a successful rally. They ended up on the short end of the 22-14 final score. The stat sheet indicated the Tigers were more prolific in moving the football. Maud piled up 312 yards of total offense. Allen managed 199 yards in the losing cause. AHS was fairly balanced in the offensive attack. The Mustangs generated 116 yards rushing and 83 yards passing. Dalton James led the Allen ground game with 100 yards and 1 touchdown on 25 carries. The only other backs with positive yards rushing were Colten Browning with 12 yards on 4 carries – and Colten Frederick with 8 yards with 3 carries. Justin Deaton completed 7 passes in 17 throws for 83 yards and 1 touchdown. His most productive receiver was Dakota Nickell with 4 receptions for 74 yards and 1 touchdown. Defensively, Allen was led by Dalton James with 11 total tackles. Colten Browning also landed in double digits with 10 stops. Other productive players included Colten Frederick scenarios out there. We can with 8 tackles, Patrick ready for Maysville. IF we still finish in a 3-way tie for Leonard with 7 and Joe will get back on track, there are still a lot of playoff 2nd and get a home playoff Howshar with 6. game.” “It was a tough loss,” --said Coach Deaton. “Maud AT A GLANCE played very well, and Oct 16 @Allen controlled both the lines Maud - 14 - 0 - 0 - 8 - (22) of scrimmage.
