Scholarship endowment created to honor late Union professor By Jay Stancil For The Mountain Advocate Two colleagues of a fallen Union College professor are working to honor her memory with a scholarship endowment to support generations of social work students. Dr. Martha Ellison and Dr. Melinda Rice announced recently the establishment of the Dr. Sarah Hendrix Endowed Scholarship. The scholarship will further Hendrix’s legacy of “educating first generation baccalaureate social work students who have demonstrated academic achievement and financial need.” “Dr. Hendrix’s passions were working with first generation college students, educating future social work practitioners, serving as a foster parent and working with community groups to help enhance the quality of life for residents of Knox, Whitley and Laurel counties,” Dr. Ellison said. “Dr. Hendrix left positive marks in the Government; Substance lives of those with whom she interacted and was Abuse Consultant; and a valued member of the the Executive Director of Union College and Knox an Employee Assistance County communities,” Program (EAP) which added Dr. Rice. “It is to served 50 businesses; and this end this scholarship is an Employee Assistance being established to help Program (EAP) consultant further her life’s work.” with companies such as Dr. Hendrix passed away Proctor & Gamble, Toyota, tragically on Feb. 11. and St. Vincent De Paul Dr. Hendrix earned an Society.

Barbourville Tourism Director Denise Wainscott told the Downtown Revitalization Committee that tourism is looking into putting the face of Dr. Walker on the new downtown banners. “We want to pay tribute to the one who came first,” said Tourism Director Denise Wainscott. Tourism has recently invested in a costume depicting Dr. Thomas Walker that can be worn in future reenactments or as a recognizable figure when someone is guest speaking at one of the schools. A minimum of 88 banners will be needed to cover the city. Mayor David Thompson told the group the city will soon be planting petunias in the city’s flower gardens.

MOBILE PET ADOPTION FRIDAY, APRIL 24, 2015 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. Barbourville Health & Rehabilitation Center 65 Minton Hickory Farm Road Barbourville, Kentucky (Behind old TruSeal factory and Knox County Hospital) Add the many benefits to adopting a shelter pet... 1. You can save a life. Between 3-6 million animals are euthanized across the country each year. When you adopt an animal from a shelter or rescue group, you save a life. 2. You will not be supporting puppy mills and those who breed animals irresponsibly for money. Let’s face it, millions of animals are euthanized each year because too many animals are born each year. Puppy mills are commercial kennels where animals are bred in order to sell them for money. All too often, these puppy mills abuse the animals, kill the mothers after they are no longer of breeding age and deprive the puppies of the chance to learn normal behavior. 3. Many of the animals are already house trained and may have some socialization training. Many of the animals at a shelter have already received some training. For a person wishing to adopt an animla, but who does not have the time to devote to training, adopting a shelter pet who is already trained is very important. 4. There are purebred animals at shelters and rescue groups. Estimates are that from 10-15% of animals at shelters are purebred. 5. You will be an example to others. Currently, only about 20% of people adopt their little buddies from shelters. Many people do not realize there are so many loving animals in the care of shelters. By adopting, you can spread the word to those who are unaware. 6. There are both puppies and kittens at shelters. 7. You can choose the type of pet that is suitable for you and your family. 8. Adoption staff will work with you to find your perfect pet. 9. Spaying and neutering are often done before adoption. Many shelters will have your pet spayed or neutered before adoption. This is an important step in preventing pet overpopulation. Most breeders will not spay or neuter their animals before you buy them. 10. Unconditional Love! Your little buddy will love and appreciate you for providing a warm, comfortable and loving home and become part of your family. - This information provided by The National Humane Education Society. - The Mountain Advocate n Thursday, April 23, 2015 n 3A Teens thrown Governor candidate Comer from pick-up in pays visit to Knox County trauma center By Bobbie Poynter Editor Around midnight on April 16 Barbourville Police Department responded to a 911 call of two women being thrown from the bed of a pick-up truck in downtown Barbourville. Upon arrival officers found that a 17-year-old and 19-year-old female had been riding in the bed of a full-size Chevrolet pick-up in Union Plaza when the driver (21-year-old Dustin Williams of Flat Lick,) made a hard left turn and quickly accelerated the truck between parking lanes, throwing the two teens from the bed of the truck. Both girls were trans- ported to the Knox County Hospital, then flown to trauma centers Dustin Williams for further treatment. WIlliams was arrested and lodged in the Knox County Jail. Assisting in the investigation and arrest were Patrolman Jake Knuckles (Investigating Officer), Patrolman Josh Lawson and Detective Steve Owens. Williams was charged with two counts of wanton endangerment and two counts of assault. He was lodged in Knox County Jail on a $50,000 cash bond.

Listen to our exclusive interview with James Comer on our website at mountainadvocate.com Former UK star to conduct ‘Shoot Hoops Not Drugs’ camp Special to The Mountain Advocate A free Shoot Hoops Not Drugs basketball camp, conducted by former University of Kentucky allstar Jeff Sheppard, will be offered by Operation UNITE this summer. All school-age youth are invited to participate in the camp, which will be Tuesday, June 16, at Lynn Camp High School. Camp begins at 4 p.m. and con- cludes about 7 p.m. Participants are asked to arrive 30 minutes early for registration. (There is no advance registration.) Shoot Hoops Not Drugs camps provide basketball skills instruction in conjunction with anti-drug and self-esteem messages. For safety and comfort while participating, youth are asked not to wear open-toe shoes or sandals. All participants will receive a free event T-shirt, regulation-sized signature basketball, food and water, and be entered into a drawing for two portable basketball goals given away at the conclusion of camp (you must be present to win). Presented by Ameritox, Shoot Hoops Not Drugs camps are fun, interactive and provide a safe, drugfree activity where children have an opportunity to interact with positive role models while learning fundamental basketball skills.

Hampton Elementary School GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY 4A n Thursday, April 23, 2015 n The Mountain Advocate Am I crazy or can racehorses help our hospital? The Knox County Hospital saves lives. That’s why this newspaper has been such a strong advocate for the hospital. Even though we report both good and bad news about the hospital, its finances, activities and staff, overall we believe Knox County is definitely better off with a hospital than without one. In fact, 48% of heath care provided in our state comes from rural hospitals, according to state commissioner of agriculture and candi- date for governor, James Comer. Clearly rural hospitals play a huge role in protecting and preserving the health and welfare of our citizens. But, our local hospital, like many others across the state, also faces a huge financial challenge. That’s partly due to another statistic Comer cited when he visited the Advocate offices recently. The commissioner stated, “Twenty-five percent of the state is on Medicaid now.” Because Medicaid is From the Publisher Jay Nolan [email protected] a federal program that often reimburses the local hospital far less than the actual cost for many services, rural hospitals provide these services at a loss. Making things even worse, hospital administrator Ray Canady tells me more than 70-75% of the patients treated from Knox and from surrounding counties are Medicaid or Medicare patients. No business can succeed if it loses money on three out of every four of its customers! A small rural hospital like ours is no exception. What is the answer? I believe one answer is for our hospital to have more customers that can pay the full cost. And, that’s why I say racing at “Thunder Gap” could help our hospital. How? Keeneland recently announced they are committed to investing $30 million to build their new facility and bringing hundreds of new jobs to this county. Jobs with benefits will provide hundreds more people access to good insurance. This private insurance pays much more of our hospital’s cost. So, lets all hope Keeneland’s project is hugely successful. Their success will help many local people, local businesses, and expand our local tax base. So indirectly, yes, I do think those horses could help our hospital. What do you think?

ButSome this year, don’tInvestment confine your spring cleaning to your home and yard. Why not “freshen up” your investment portfolio at the same time? Taxes? Of course, you can’t just take a mop and broom to your brokerage www.edwardjones.com Give Your Investment Portfolio a Spring Cleaning Member SIPC Letters to the Editor Knox School Board responds to state audit Dear Editor, One of the most challenging roles of the Board of Education is to provide fiscal oversight of the school district’s current finances while making decisions that will allow for a sustainable economic future. The Knox County Board of Education joins others across the Commonwealth, including right here in our own county, in making hard decisions that ultimately are the best in order to promote student achievement and meet individual student needs. While meeting the state required 2% contingency, the Knox County Public Schools face a potential reduction of $1.3 million in the general fund’s beginning balance for the 2015-2016 academic year. Just like our neighboring district, and most others in Kentucky, this is not a problem that occurred overnight. During the next several weeks the Knox County Board will be making financial decisions for the upcoming school year. While not official until approved by the Board, our district is looking at making adjustments through attrition which means that as staff retires or resign, some of those positions will be abolished and not filled. When combined with the promise of additional funding for special populations from the State, Knox County will be able to meet its required contingency and maintain a balanced budget without negatively impacting student services. Our next step as a Board and school system is strategic planning for the future. When a Board of Education looks at increasing local revenue, there are only two main sustainable sources – taxes and attendance. The Knox County Board has no intentions of considering a tax increase at this time, so we are turning our attention to increasing the daily attendance rate which is our SEEK funding from the State. Students simply cannot master skills and understanding without being present daily. Likewise, each day that students are absent costs all students in the form of programs and services that our district cannot afford to offer. Since August over 284,231 hours of instruction has been lost due to absences in Knox County. Financially, that is the equivalent of $968,000 in funding that could be used to reduce class sizes, provide intervention for struggling learners, and enrichment opportunities for those that are mastering classroom content. We believe that one of the best investments that our community can make is in public education. Just as our Board of Education carefully reviews the finances of the district, we would like to ask that our parents and guardians review the attendance of their children. Together, we can ensure Knox County students are provided a great public education that prepares them for a bright future. Sincerely, Kelly Sprinkles statement.

The Knox County Unite Coalition collaborated with Girder Elementary Resource center to create a Girl Power Club for fourth and fifth grade students at Girdler. The club’s mission is to enhance girls’ self-esteem by teaching empowerment, promoting positive behavior, enhancing social skills, and improving academic performance. The Girl Power Club’s first session called “I am Beautiful,” involved teaching the girls how to do hair and makeup. Kristy Cole, from Sheer Vixen Salon, donated her time and skills to teach some of the girls. Cole used an airbrush foundation on the girls and taught them how to create a natural look for their face. She also curled and styled hair, and showed the girls step-by-step techniques. The club will continue to meet on the following days from 12:45-1:45 p.m. April 23- Money Management April 27- Field Trip-Presentation-“I Am Someone” April 28- Making Informed Decisions- Use of Social Media May 5- Etiquette and Nutrition May 7- Anti-drug Presentation May 18, 6-8p.m.- Cotillion Class at Union.

Owens followed up her senior year by breaking her own record with a two under par 34 at Wasioto Winds in Pineville. Head Union College Golf Coach Tony Carruba said about Ana, “I could not be happier with Ana and her entire family. She is such a hard worker and a great student. I expect her to make an immediate impact for Union. I am excited with what she will bring to the Union College family.” Ana gave credit to much of her success on the course to her grandparents Don and Judy Owens. “Golf is a financial burden,” said Ana. “It did not matter what I needed they were more than willing to help.” Ana also had high praise for her coach Kermit Coffee. “Mr. Coffee took a little girl who did not even know what her irons were and turned her into this. I can never thank you enough.” Lynn Camp Softball splits double-header with Bell By Dennis Mills For The Mountain Advocate The Lynn Camp Lady Wildcats Softball team was back on the field for the first time in two weeks on Monday night as they split a double-header with the Bell County Lady Bobcats. The Wildcats fell to Bell County in the first match 8-4 and stormed back in the second contest to win 8-3. Head Coach Nikki Hendrix said about her team’s performance, “The first game we came out a little sluggish. My girls did not look ready to play. This was our first game in two weeks, so it took us some time to get going.” Bell County jumped on the Wildcats in the top of the first inning by connecting for three hits that See LYNN CAMP, page 3B Photos by Dennis Mills At left, Lynn Camp’s Destiny Hill steals second base in game one of a double-header against Bell County on Monday night.

Union's Bartolovic, Tejerina nab spots on All-AAC team By John Gatto For the Mountain Advocate Union College’s Borna Bartolovic and Ignacio Tejerina in tennis action recently. Union College’s Borna Bartolovic (FR/Zagreb, Croatia) and Ignacio Tejerina (FR/Madrid, Spain) were named to both the 2015 All-Appalachian Athletic Conference Team, and the AAC’s All-Freshman Team, the conference office announced on Saturday evening. Meanwhile, Ellen Denham (FR/Louisville, Ky.) of the women’s team and Joshua Souane (SO/Sedition, Senegal) of the men’s squad were named to their respective AAC Champion of Character Teams. Bartolovic and Tejerina become the first Union men’s tennis players to earn All-AAC Honors since the programs reinstatement in 2013, as the Bulldogs last placed someone on the team in 2011. The pair also becomes the first Union men’s tennis players to earn All-Freshman status from the AAC, as well. Both led Union to an 7-5 overall record in dual matches this year, including a 5-2 mark in AAC play in the regular season. At one point during the season, the Bulldogs rattled off six straight wins. Also during the year, Bartolovic earned AAC Player of the Week honors, taking the award on March 3rd. The Union men’s tennis team, who defeated SCAD-Atlanta in the quarterfinals of the 2015 AAC Tournament on Saturday morning, takes on second-seeded Reinhardt (Ga.) in the Semifinals of the Tournament. 2B n Thursday, April 23, 2015 n The Mountain Advocate 2B n THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE n Thursday, October 9, 2014 6B n THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE n Thursday, October 2, 2014 Knox educator selected as Ashland teaching award recipient City students again surpass St. Jude Math-a-thon goal test.

Knox Middle Softball defeats Lynn Camp, 25-3 Photos by Derrick Poff The Lady Panthers of Knox Middle defeated the Lynn Camp Middle Lady Wildcats this past Friday with a score of 25-3. The Lady Wildcats jumped out to a 1-0 lead in their half of the first, only to watch that lead slip when the Lady Tigers scored five in the bottom of the first. The Tigers held Lynn Camp scoreless in the second and then went on to score 20 runs of their own in the bottom of the second to lead 25-1. Lynn Camp scored 2 in the third inning but just could not overcome the deficit. LYNN CAMP from page 1B included a triple by Sarah Collins and a single by Courtney Baker to give the Bobcats a two run lead. Lynn Camp’s Summar Gregory helped pitcher Lykylla Medlin get out of the inning when she fielded a ground ball to second base and tagged out the first base runner and threw out Bell County’s Lucinda Burkhart for a double play. The Wildcats answered the two run deficit with hot bats from their first two batters that included a single to center field from Summer Berry and a single ground ball down the first base line by Tiana Simpson to put runners on first and second. After a strike-out was recorded, Lynn Camp’s Destiny Hill ripped a 3-1 pitch to center field for a single that scored Berry and Simpson to tie the game at 2-2. The Bobcats roared back out to the lead with two opening singles that set up a 2-out single by Jessica Sanders that drove in two more runs for the 4-2 advantage. The Wildcats struggled to record the final out of the second inning and gave up three more hits that saw the Bobcats bolt out to a four run lead, 6-2. Lynn Camp struggled offensively in the second and third innings. The Wildcat batters all struck out in the second inning and failed to put up any runs in the third despite singles by Tiana Simpson and Destiny Hill. Lynn Camp stranded three runners when Summar Gregory popped up in the infield with the bases loaded to end the inning. The Wildcats gave up two more runs in the fourth inning and managed to score two runs of their on in the same inning off of a triple by Kourtnie Mills, a double by Summer Berry, and singles by Tiana Simpson and Lakylla Medlin. Bell County held the Wildcats scoreless in the fifth and recorded an 8-4 victory for the first half of the double-header. Hendrix said, “Our bats started coming alive at the end of the first game. Luckily it carried over into the second game. We started hitting the ball in the second game and our defense and pitching was a lot better.” Lynn Camp came out on fire to open up the first inning of the second game. Summer Berry led off with a ground ball single back to the pitcher followed by a single down the third base line by Tiana Simpson that By John Gatto For the Mountain Advocate Union College baseball used a strong performance from their pitching staff, along with some timely hitting from JT Green (FR/Glasgow, Ky.) to knock off No. 15 Campbellsville (Ky.), 7-6, on Wednesday afternoon at Jerry Carey Stadium in NAIA action. With the win, Union moved to 27-11 on the year, while Campbellsville fell to 22-7 with the defeat. In the first, the Bulldogs got off to a very fast start, scoring four runs on five hits to leap out to a quick 4-0 lead. In the frame, Zach Dillman (SR/Cincinnati, Ohio) got the scoring started with an RBI double with one out, scoring Zach Gross (JR/Bowling Green, Ky.) (who led the inning off with a double) to make the score 1-0. Next up was Nelson Price (SR/Burkesville, Ky.), who hit the third double of the frame for Union, scoring Dillman to make it 2-0. After Green scored Price from third base on a RBI ground out to make it 3-0, Vance Sullivan (SR/ Verona, Ky.) roped an RBI single to center, scoring Tyler Young (JR/Manchester, Ky.) to make it a 4-0 game. The lead, however, was short lived for the Bulldogs, as Campbellsville struck back with five runs in the top of the second to go up 5-4 after an inning and a half. After a calm third and top of the fourth, the Bulldogs knotted the game back up in the bottom of the inning, as J.D. Burrell(SR/Amanda, Ohio) scored on a Justin Elder (SR/Seven Mile, Ohio) RBI to tie the game up at 5-5 entering the fifth inning. In the bottom of the frame, Campbellsville was able to get the first two Union batters out, as the Bulldogs sent Price to the plate. Price was able, however, to get on base on a Tiger error. The mistake proved to be costly for CU, as after a Young single sent Price to third, Green cleared the bases on a two-RBI double to deep center field, giving Union a 7-5 lead after five innings. Once the Bulldogs grabbed the lead back, they never gave it up, as Union rode the bullpen to a victory. After the five-run outburst by Campbellsville in the second, the Tigers only clawed one more run across the rest of the game (in the top of the sixth), as six Union pitchers allowed just one run on two hits over the final six innings of action. In the ninth, Price came on, and retired the side in order to earn his fifth save of the season, as Union was able to walk away with a big one-run victory over the Tigers. Overall, Young had the best game of the day at the plate for Union, going 3-for-4 with two runs scored, while Dillman was 2-for-4 with an RBI. Green ended the day 1-for-3 with a game-high three RBI, as well. Starting pitcher Erik Tarbell (SR/Mecosta, Mich.) (7-1) was able to collect the win for Union, as the Bulldogs kept the Tigers in check all game using nine total pitchers. By the Numbers The Bulldogs improved to 18-7 at Jerry Carey Stadium on the year with the victory, which was their first over Campbellsville since April 2, 2013 (when the Tigers were ranked 21st). Green entered Wednesday’s game with just one RBI on the season, tripling his number of RBI on the season in the win. Dillman continued his hitting streak in the win, extending it out nine games. It was also the sixth time in the last nine games that Dillman posted double-digit hits in a game. Young’s three-hit performance was the best of his season to date. Up Next The Bulldogs leap back into Appalachian Athletic Conference action on Friday evening, traveling to Bryan (Tenn.) for a single nine-inning contest. First pitch is scheduled for 6 p.m. scored Berry for the one run lead. After an infield out by LaKylla Medlin, Destiny Hill drove a 0-1 pitch to center field that rolled to the fence and gave Hill an inside-the-park homerun and an early 3-0 advantage. The Wildcats, after a 30 minute rain delay in the second inning, continued hitting well with singles by Kourtnie Mills, Callie Cobb and Summer Berry to extend the Lynn Camp lead to 6-1 at the end of the second inning. Lynn Camp put up two more runs while allowing the Bobcats to score two in the bottom of the fifth to record their sixth win of the year, 8-3. Coach Hendrix is optimistic about her team and the way they are playing this season. “This was our sixth win of the season which matches our total for all of last year. We have lots of games left, so I am hoping we can pick up a few more wins,” said Hendrix. The Wildcats will be back in action as they host Model on Apr. 22 and Whitley County on Apr. 23. Lynn Camp will travel to Pineville on Apr. 24 for a 51st District game. Editor’s Note: Both teams agreed to shorten the games from seven innings to five before each contest due to time constraints. 4B n Thursday, April 23, 2015 n The Mountain Advocate BHS Ladies' Reunion spans over 50 years of students, friends Photo by Dennis Mills Barbourville High School semi-annual ladies reunion luncheon was held at the First United Methodist Church Aug. 15, 2014.

A personal practice for many years now has been to select a particular scripture each year and to study that scripture, use it for reflection, motivation and encouragement. Another reason for selection of scripture or passage of scripture is to commit it to memorization each year and learn more about Jesus personally. This practice helps me to know who He is, what He wants to do in my life (our lives) of those who follow Him and to learn more about His way of thinking. I must also add that an additional benefit from this practice is to learn what attitude or actions draws God’s responds. Most Christians that I know have a “life verse”, that is a verse of scripture that is their go-to verse from the Bible for every situation. My life verse is Acts 4:12. “There is no other name given among us whereby we must be saved.” This verse sums up my entire theological faith about God and my belief in Jesus Christ as the Savior and Lord of the World. From firsthand experience I have seen and witnessed the rejection of this Biblical thought and experienced the hatred others have for Jesus. The truth for me is that Jesus is the sweetest name I know, it is a name I love to sing, the simple mention of His name causes the demons in hell to tremble, and it is the only name in which I pray under and is is the name to whom I pray. While I wish I would have be able to have selected my verse of scripture to focus upon prior to this date in April, the truth is that it just wasn’t Until Then Rev. Tim H. Mills possible until now. There is no scientific method to my selection when choosing my yearly verse. The selection comes from simply reading the Bible, studying scriptures or sometimes I select the verse because it jumps out at me, or its a verse I can’t remember seeing before. The verse could be selected because in reading the scripture I realize I don’t understand it full or in part. Philippians 4:6 reads, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” This verse of scripture both jumped out at me and because there is part of this scripture passage I have never realized until just now. In reading this verse today I first said to myself I understand this verse completely. It was then that my lack of wisdom and need of knowledge jumped out at me. Learning to pray is the first thing most Christians learn to do. We learn to call upon Him and His name. When I was reading this scripture today, at first I interpreted and read the scripture in this context: When you are in need don’t be anxious about anything at all. Be calm and pray to God. Bring your concerns to God and He will answer them. I confess I thought that was good theology too. It sounded correct when I read it that way. Looking at the scripture from my point of view it felt good too. I thought how could it be incorrect since the focus was on Him? It was at this moment I realized again my need for His understanding and right before my eyes I could clearly see where I was making a big mistake in the practice of my Christian faith. It was happening to me, I was not fully understanding the intend of God’s word and I was making errors in understanding the scripture because I wasn’t reading it properly. What I missed was two words that read: “...with thanksgiving...”. WOW, my first attitude was simple but wrong. Tell Him our concerns and problems and then don’t worry. The correct attitude should include not to be anxious at all. The correct approach to God is to tell him my concerns and problems, but to tell him my concerns and problems by coming with my attitude in a proper and healthy mode. Come make my request known to God by including my thanksgiving attitude. Is it possible I have missed God’s mark, His calling for me in my life because I missed those two words, “...with thanksgiving...”? God forbid that be the case, but certainly without a check and balance system in place in our Christian lives, it is possible to misinterpret what God is really saying if we are not careful in reading His word completely. Until then Hidden Pictures Spring brings memories of home Some questions do not lend themselves to easy answers. A friend asked me why I continue to write. After a few seconds of silence, she expected me to give her a reason writing was important to me. My interest goes all the way back to childhood when I kept a daily journal in a composition book. So my answer is simple, I write because it keeps the time and the people in my articles close to me. I have deep respect for the hometown, the people I love and about life lived in a time soon to be forgotten. By writing personal essays the memories connect me to other people that share their own childhood memories as well. This connection helps to share a literary legacy back to our father and mothers before us passing on stories told to their heirs. It is a noble heritage to be shared. W. Phillip Keller's words taken from "Song of My Soul" spoke to me this morning as I sipped my cup of comfort and read email from our readers. “There can be no re-writing of script etched upon these hours. With the indelible ink of eternity there has been inscribed upon Memories Mildred Higgins the page of this eternal sheet of time, either something of value, or only what is vain. If I look upon each day as a gift from God, how will I change? In what way will my attitude alter my perspective brightens?" With the hue of age, the reason I continue to write is I find pleasure in reminiscing about a kinder, gentler way of life and the childhood experiences are the ones we never forget. Life has been good to me. I am mindful of many blessings and the memories from long ago. Time has changed the lane, only in memories will it remain the way it was in childhood. Many of the wonderful people I write about are dead. The old home place no longer stands, the modest homes with unsure foundations have been replaced with new moderns homes. The dirt lane is now a paved road. The branch that my brothers and I played has disappeared forever. Looking back to the first thrust of spring bloom on the lane daylilies line each side of the lane as far as the eye can see. Grandma’s snowball bushes hang full of large white blooms. The fence row separating our house from the pasture is a blanket of wild rose and blackberry bushes. Grandma’s rain barrels are overflowing with rainwater, wild fern covers the ground around the barrels. What a pretty sight to see after a long cold winter. Each year when snowball bushes bloom in my garden, thoughts go back to the days on the lane when spring came ushered in by a host of flowers that I favor to this day. My quote for today, William Wordsworth, “and then my heart with pleasure fills and dancing with the daffodils.” Mildred Higgins [email protected] Crossword Solution Crossword Solution What's your 'life verse'? © Feature Exchange 6B n Thursday, April 23, 2015 n The Mountain Advocate For subscribers on the go Crossword Puzzle Puzzle Crossword ACROSS 1.
