Until further notice, the former Sugar Creek Bridge on Route 16 will be closed. This is part of the Mis-souri Department of Transportation Safe and Sound Program to replace a number of defi cient bridges in Mis-souri.

A longtime servant with the city of LaBelle died last week.

Anna Mae Hudson, 75, who served as tax collector for LaBelle for 32 years, died July 2 at her LaBelle home.

A complete obituary is on page 5B.

Area fi re departments responded to a garage and house fi re at 801 White Street in Canton on Thursday evening, July 6. Owners James and Theresa Cook and their fi ve children were not at home when the fi re occurred. The Cooks had arrived in Florida for a family vacation a few hours earlier when they received a call that their house was on fi re. They immediately left Florida to make the long drive home, not sure what they would fi nd when they got home.

Fire Destroys Canton Home

BY RITA COXReporter

Canton and LaGrange Fire Departments were both dispatched for a garage fi re which was completely engulfed when they arrived and other area fi re departments were soon called in as well as law enforcement, city personnel and the Lewis County Ambulance.

The big historic home was almost completely destroyed. The house was once known as the Culver-Stockton Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity House for many decades. A portion of the house where names of students were written on had been preserved by the people that had remodeled the home

before the Cook’s purchased it last year and amazingly the signatures were not burned. Mrs. Cook said their future plans were uncertain at this time, but whatever happens, those signatures will be preserved. Mrs. Cook said they lost almost everything and the only clothes they have are what they had packed for vacation. The family found that the picture frames that held their wedding pictures might be able to be saved but the photos were ruined. The family dog was staying elsewhere, but all the dog toys, food, etc. were lost.

The family is staying at

the Comfort Inn.Clothing sizes are: boy-

age 6: size 5-6 boys; girl- age 7, size 8; girl age 8 size 7; boy age 10, 32-30 mens, med men’s shirt; boy age 13, 34-32 mens pants large mens shirts. The adults sizes are mens 36-32 and extra large shirt and ladies size 16 pants and 1x shirts.

Mrs. Cook said the community has been very caring and she is amazed at the offers for help which the family very much appreciates. They are sad for the loss of their homes, but at the same time very grateful no one was hurt.

Lewis County got a slight break in oppressive temper-atures on Sunday.

After 10 straight days with temperatures at Lock 20 92 or higher, including six of those days over 100, a cooling front dropped temperatures. Lock 20 said Sunday’s high was 87, 14 degrees cooler than the day before.

Twice - on June 28 and July 1, the high temperature topped out at 102.

During the same 10 days prior of high temperatures, the low for each of the days ranged from 70 to 73 de-grees.

Many people have taken heed with the higher tem-peratures and found cooler places to be and restricted their time outdoors.

Lewis County Ambu-lance has reported one heat-related injury to which they have responded in recent days, one each on the west and est sides of the County. However neither Quincy Medical Group Clinic in Lewistown or in Canton has reported any heat related in-juries or illnesses.

Lewis County Health Department does not treat patients, but Administrator Diane Lay said “We just try to remind the people in here to be smart about it (han-dling the heat.).”

Dr. Arvin Abueg of the Canton/LaGrange Family Practice in Canton said his clinic has not treated any heat exhaustion cases per se, but he has seen an in-crease in urinary tract infec-tions which can be caused by people not drinking enough water.

“In the heat, you will burn up more fl uids. I tell the patients to get a clear pitcher of water that holds eight glasses of water, and by noon it should be half-way gone. Also, people should get the temperature down in the homes and fol-low heat advisories,” Dr. Abueg said.

Abueg said he helped treat one person participat-

ing in the Hannibal Canni-bal race Saturday by help-ing ice the man down, made sure he drank Gatorade® to replenish nutrients, and el-evated his legs.

As might be expected, attendance at Canton’s Sun ‘N’ Surf Pool has seen a spike in attendance. Manag-er Teresa McKenzie said on one of the 100-plus degree days, the crowd at the mem-bership pool was near 75 people. Usually, 50 people can be expected.

Ironically, McKenzie said when the outside tem-perature “cooled” to 90 de-grees Sunday, there were only about 20 people were present.

The Press-News Journal has added two new members to its family. Austin Rettenmeier and Peggy Wolf joined be-gan their duties on June 18 and June 11. Austin Rettenmeier was born in Bet-tendorf, Iowa on October 22, 1992 and grew up in Quincy, Ill. He at-tended Quincy Senior High School in Quincy, and furthered his edu-cation by attended The Illinois In-stitute of Art in Chicago, Ill., with a major in Digital Photography. Austin’s hobbies are playing video games, photography and nature ex-ploring with friends.

Austin joined the Press-News Jour-nal because “I wanted to use the skills that I had aquired from both high school and college.” Austin is looking forward to bringing his creativity and ideas to the team.

Peggy Wolf was born in Louisiana, Mo., and grew up in Palmyra, Mo. She attended Palmyra High School in Pal-myra, Mo., and graduated from Cul-ver Stockton College in Canton, Mo., with a Bachelor of Science degree in Administration and Economics.. Peggy has one daughter named Ash-ley who attends Truman University in Kirksville, Mo., and is majoring in English.

Captain James E. Wilt, commanding offi cer of Troop B, Macon, announces the results of four boating while intoxicated saturations conducted on Long Branch Lake, Mark Twain Lake, Thomas Hill Lake, and the Mississippi River. The satura-tions were held on June 30, July 1, July 4, and July 7, from 4 until 8 p.m. each day.

The goal of these enforcement operations was to detect impaired boat operators, hazardous boat operation, and other hazardous boating violations that contribute to boating crashes.

As a result of the operations, offi cers issued 11 citations, made two drug arrests, and issued 51 warnings. Offi cers also conducted eight safety equipment inspections. Of the citations issued, two were issued for equipment violations, and nine were is-sued for marine moving violations.

“Boating is a fun recreational activity, but safety must be a priority,” stated Cap-tain Wilt. “Always make sure each boat passenger has a life jacket available, and never operate any type of watercraft after consuming alcohol.”

The Evelyn (Carman) Wiechman ’46 Recording Studio, fondly referred to as Studio ’46, features an array of professional

grade equipment includ-ing vocal and instrument microphones, a MAC Pro and ProTools pow-ered digital recording and editing station, Allen and Heath multi-channel sound mixing board, a Korg music workstation/sampler and Roland R-4 Pro portable record-ing unit, among many other amenities. The advanced equipment and sound-proof room al-lows students to record their music with crystal clear precision. In addi-tion, Studio ’46 boasts a broadcast quality Sony high defi nition video camera and video editing software making it ideal for honing techniques, making music videos and capturing performances.

Evelyn Wiechman, whose father died when she was very young, grew up with her mother on a small farm in Canton, Mo. “She and her mom struggled, but Canton was a very tight knit commu-nity with a lot of people who were willing to help them,” recalls Debbie. Despite the struggles she and her mother faced, Ev-elyn Wiechman went on to attend Culver-Stockton College where she studied music education. Follow-ing her graduation, she taught and directed band in Texas for a number of years. After marrying, Wiechman and her hus-band moved several times before settling in Rantoul, Ill., with their family.

THIS IS LIFE

Budgeting... the next step in your organization process

ADVENTURES OF WONDER MOM

BARTLETT

A PHOTO FROM YESTERYEAR

With apologies to the Von Trapp family sing-ers: So long, farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, goodnight. I hate to go, but this good-bye I write.

This is the last regular column One Anonymous Humor Columnist will write for the Press-News Journal, at least for now. Said columnist is leaving to pursue other opportuni-ties, and not as some may say to become a super male model nor a horse race jockey.

Long before he became a columnist, he began at the newspaper sweeping up metal lead slugs of copy for re-melting and re-use. One Linotype op-erator made a slug calling the eventual columnist a Printer’s Devil,” a term the columnist loathes. Eventually he was one not-so anonymous re-porter, photographer, dark room technician, editor, publisher, and offi cial junk food taster. In the few years the newspaper did delayed broadcast on local access cable of lo-cal sports and events, said columnist was even executive producer of the cable broadcast. As im-pressive as the title was, the job meant carrying the trunk of video equipment, microphones, and clip-boards.

More apologies to the Von Trapps: The family has left, and now so must I

The Steinbeck family bought the Canton Press-News and the Lewis County Journal in 1968 and merged them to the Press-News Journal in 1973. The Steinbecks sold the newspaper in July 2010, and since Janu-ary, 2011 the columnist has been the lone family member here as the oc-cupational compass will point elsewhere.

Readers have been somewhat patient with One Anonymous Colum-nist, but – to the relief of some in Lewis County – that humor will be shared with another business. Oh they don’t really know what they are getting into, but don’t tell them just yet. As reporter and photographer, many wel-

comed him to their proper-ties for story information.

Through the years, One Anonymous Columnist has tried to entertain, in-form, question our role as individuals in a complex and changing society in this column”This is Life,” which numbers some 830. Sometimes it was just a matter of a simpleton ask-ing “Why in the world are we/do we ...?”

He remembers fondly one column complaining of the lack of windows on chocolates to determine the fl avor, and some local Amish friends stunned him when they brought home-made chocolates with a gelatin window to see the inside of chocolates.

Still more apologies to the Von Trapps: “...An ab-surd little bird is popping out to say coo-coo...”

In quoting Sound of Music songs, perhaps no line is most appropriate for a humor columnist than something that includes the word “coo-coo.”

Seriously, more im-portant to remember than the “coo-coo” of many of the columns is to get right with God and make Je-sus Christ an active part of your life. Jesus is what makes life worth living, and laughing possible in an often sad world.

The Steinbecks sincere-ly hope the reputations established over 44 years in the business will be continued and the relation-ships fostered will contin-ue for another 44 years by the management and staff of the Press-News Journal. We pray reader and man-agement alike will work to give continuing the re-lationship an honest effort.

When my husband and I fi rst moved in together, there was no fi nancial or-ganization. I’ve lost count of how many things were over-due or things that weren’t bought at all sim-ply because we ‘didn’t have the money.’ When we had our daughter, we knew that things needed to change- and quickly. We began by looking at our monthly bills, their due dates, and how we could pay them all (on time) with the money that we made. Here is an example of what we did for our budget:Our average monthly bills comes to a total of $1,868. With expenses (grocer-ies, gas for the car, etc.) added into that, our total becomes $2,788 a month. Depending on how you are paid, divide the over-all number by the amount of checks that you get in a month. For us, that would be dividing by four. This means that we need to take $697 a week out of our checks in order to pay all of our bills. The great thing about this is that our largest bill is lower than

this total- we can pay any of our bills out of this to-tal. With our combined paychecks, this means that we have about $350 ‘extra’ to spend on whatever we would like or to put back as savings. Our goal is to set back around $150 a week as savings. This still leaves us $200 for anything else that might come up. . You can fi nd a more in-depth breakdown of how I budget on my blog: thead-venturesofawondermom.blogspot.com.

Donna Gibson from Princeton has provided more information about Turtle Bend which the Knox City corre-spondent, Nancy Shouse had mentioned in her articles.

Gibson wrote, I grew up in the Turtle Bend area. It is north of LaBelle and southeast of Deer Ridge where the George Agee farm and the Allie Chamber’s farms were when the big bridge was taken out and along the middle of the Fabi-us where it makes a big “S”. No one can travel across the middle of the Fabius now due to the removal of the bridge.

Information on Turtle Bend

The bottom photo was provided by Donald Goodwin of Canton. He said his mother Mrs. James David (Gosney) Goodwin, born in 1907 and probably went to school near Williamstown. The photo of the building shows children outside and in the windows, a fl ag pole and a nearby cemetery. Anyone with information can contact Donald Goodwin or the Press-News Journal.

Information is wanted about these photos. The fi rst two were provided by Barbara Warning Bright of Canton. These pictures were her grandmother’s, Vera Gnuse Warning, born Oct. 20, 1890 near Dover and lived south of LaGrange. Warning is pictured in the bottom class photo as the fi fth person from the right. Any information about the people or location would be appreciated and those with information can contact Barbara Bright or the Press-News Journal

worldwide. At the Awards of Excellence program, it was announced that Kim-berly Clark earned fourth place in the nation in Ac-counting I.

The competition is part of a competitive events program sponsored annu-ally by FBLA-PBL, a pro-fessional association for students pursuing business careers. Individuals, local chapters, and state teams compete in over 50 events representing a range of business, career, and lead-ership development activi-ties. The winners of these awards are selected from FBLA-PBL’s over 210,000 members, and have won regional and state compe-titions to qualify for the national awards program.

More than 8,000 of America’s best and brightest youth traveled to the historic city of San Antonio to showcase their talents as future business leaders and vied for the opportunity to win over $95,000 in cash awards.

Future Business Leaders of America-Phi Beta Lamb-da (FBLA-PBL), the largest and oldest student business organization, held its National Leadership Conference in San Antonio on June 29–July 2. Participants from across the United States and two countries were in atten-dance for this exciting conference to sharpen their core business skills, expand their networks, and participate in more than 55 business and business-related competitive events.

“Our goal was to make it to the fi nals round (top 15) but yet we made top 10. Having the honor to get on stage at nationals does not happen every year for our chapter. It was beyond rewarding,” said Lay, Gray and Wilson.

The students appreciate the support of time and dedi-cation this past year of their advisers Stephanie Gray, Jeana Houchins, and Brenda Kinsel.

Highland High School Honored at FBLA Conference

J.T. Gray, Taylor Lay and Chase Wilson from High-land High School received national recognition at the FBLA Awards of Excellence on July 2. Gray, Lay, and Wilson competed in Business Presentations and brought home tenth place. The students were given the topic of informing high school students on the dangers of texting and driving and were to act as if delivering to high school juniors and se-niors before prom.

Lt. Governor Kinder urges precautions during Missouri’s heat wave

Missouri Lt. Governor Peter Kinder today urged Missourians to take extra precautions this week as the National Weather Service issued heat advisories over a large section of the state.

At particular risk are elderly residents. As the offi cial Senior Advocate for the state of Missouri, Kinder urged residents to take extra steps to ensure their elderly family members and neighbors are safe during the extremely hot weather.

Kinder offered these tips for staying cool: Drink plenty of water. Health offi cials recommend four to eight glasses a day. Also, it’s important to limit the intake of caffeinated drinks and alcohol. Fresh fruits and vegetables also can help ensure proper hydration. Elderly residents should be encouraged to turn on their air conditioners, especially during the hottest times of the day, from noon until 3 or 4 p.m. If you have elderly neighbors, friends or family – especially those with respiratory problems – check on them daily to see if they need help staying cool. If you need a respite from the heat, take a trip to the mall or the grocery store, or visit public facilities with air conditioning, such as the library, during the hottest times of the day. Many counties have senior activity centers, where elderly residents can cool off in the company of friends and neighbors. Often these centers provide extended hours during heat advisories. To fi nd out if your area has a senior center, call the Missouri Association for Agencies on Aging at 800-497-0822, or call the Lt. Governor’s offi ce at 573-751-4727.

Dangerous heat is expected to continue in much of Missouri until at least Saturday, with high temperatures near 100 degrees and heat index values of 105 to 110 expected through the week.

The Press-News Journal Staff would like to wishall Lewis Co. Fair

exhibitors and visitors agreat time!

STAY COOL!

FOR THE RECORD5BThursday, July 12, 2012


NOTICENotice to Lewis County Voters: The following proposition will be submitted to voters at the election to be held on August 7, 2012.

Shall the County of Lewis adopt the Local Option Fence Law as set fort in Section 272.210 through Section 272.370 of the Revised Statutes of missouri? (a copy of said statutes is attached hereto.)

[ ] YES [ ] NO

Local Option - Fence LawDefi nitions.

272.210. As used in sections 272.210 to 272.370 the following words and terms have the following meanings:

(1) “Lawful fence”, a fence with not less than four boards per four feet of height; said boards to be spaced no farther apart than twice the width of the boards used fastened in or to substantial posts not more than twelve feet apart with one stay, or a fence of four barbed wires supported by posts not more than fi fteen feet apart with one stay or twelve feet apart with no stays, or any fence which is at least equivalent to the types of fences described herein;

(2) “Stay”, a vertical member attached to each board or wire comprising the horizontal members of the fence.

Fields enclosed, how.

272.220. All fi elds and enclosures in which livestock are kept or placed shall be enclosed by a lawful fence.

Trespass by stock, damages and compensation--action--lien.

272.230. If any horses, cattle or other stock trespass upon the premises of another, the owner of the animal shall for the fi rst trespass make reparation to the party injured for the true value of the damages sustained, to be recovered with costs before an associate circuit judge, or in any court of competent jurisdiction, and for any subsequent trespass the party injured may put up the animal or animals and take good care of them and immediately notify the owner, who shall pay to the taker-up the amount of the damages sustained, and such compensation as shall be reasonable for the taking up and keeping of the animals, before he shall be allowed to remove them, and if the owner and taker-up cannot agree upon the amount of the damages and compensation either party may make complaint to an associate circuit judge of the county, setting forth the fact of the disagreement, and the associate circuit judge shall be possessed of the cause, and shall issue a summons to the adverse party and proceed with the cause as in other civil cases. If the owner recovers, he shall recover his costs and any damages he may have sustained, and the associate circuit judge shall issue an order requiring the taker-up to deliver to him the animals. If the taker-up recover, the judgment shall be a lien upon the animals taken up, and, in addition to a general judgment and execution, he shall have a special execution against the animals to pay the judgment rendered and costs.

Adjoining landowners obligated to build fence--when--exceptions.

272.235. If there is a need for a fence by either of two joining landowners both shall be obligated to build and maintain a fence under the provisions of sections 272.210 to 272.370. Nothing in sections 272.210 to 272.370 shall prevent joining landowners from agreeing that no fence is needed between their property

Partition fences--owner may demand payment, when.

272.240. Whenever the owner of real estate desires to erect or construct a lawful fence which wholly or partially borders the land of another, he shall notify the other owner that he desires a division fence. If within ninety days after receiving the notice, the other landowner has not erected or constructed one-half of the division fence, the owner desiring the fence may apply to the associate division of the circuit court for an order to proceed with the construction and ordering the other landowner to pay one-half the value of so much thereof, as borders his land, and upon the payment shall own an undivided one-half of the fence; except that no owner shall be required to pay more than one-half the value of a lawful fence of four barbed wires, regardless of the type fence constructed. The associate division of the circuit court costs shall be taxed against the other landowner.
