Longtime Canton business leader Donald Eugene Sykes has died.

Sykes, 87, ran Don’s Grand Leader and later Grand Leader Pharmacy with his wife Katie for a number of years, was groundkeeper for several years at River Valley Country Club, was active in the Otto Bruner American Legion Post 170.

He also served on various church, school, and community boards.

A full obituary is on page 5B.

Two people from Quincy each suf-fered apparently moderate injuries when their motorcycle struck a deer Saturday night.

Operator Ralph E. Scheufele, 47 and passenger Melony J. Rosenburg 31, both of Quincy were taken by Lewis County Ambulance to Blessing Hospital in Quincy after being ejected from the cycle.

There was moderate damage to the Harley Davidson motorcycle.

The accident occurred at 11:40 p.m. on U.S. 61, four miles south of La-Grange.

Also assisting the Patrol were Lew-is County Sheriff’s Offi ce, LaGrange Fire and Rescue, and Ace Elder Tow-ing.

A major road closure for bridge replacement in Lewis County will be next month.

For several years, the Missouri Department of Transportation have been replacing a number of suspect bridges in the state in the Safe and Sound program.

The bridge at Sugar Creek on Route 16 between Canton and Monticello will be replaced start-ing June 4. This means route 16

Major road closure is scheduled for next month

[email protected]

will be closed for 49 days with a detour over routes F, E, and A. The project is expected to be completed July 23.

This is the third and last sched-uled of the Safe and Sound Bridge Replacement projects in Lewis County. A 362-foot bridge over the Wyaconda River on route E northeast of Canton was replaced in 2009. A 137-foot brige was re-placed over the Big Grassy Creek west of Ewing in 2011

Statewide, the program started in 2009 with 802 project bridges.

The Lewis County C-1 School Dis-trict is seeking two principals.

Highland Elementary Principal Kurt Malone has resigned to be the school principal at Palmyra. Meanwhile, High-land High Principal Jason Fink has re-signed to become the principal at Ball-win Middle School in Quincy.

Malone has been with the C-1 district for 14 years, starting as assistant High-land high Principal and later became Highland Elementary.

Fink has been with the C-1 district for seven years total on two stints. He was an at-risk teacher at Highland, left for a

time to be athletic director and assistant principal at Canton and then returned to be assistant Highland High Principal and later Highland Principal.

Superintendent Jackie Ebeling said the time frame for getting replacements would be determined at the C-1 board meeting this week. The board would also look at the process to seek interviews for the posts. Ebeling said several applica-tions have been received for each posi-tion.

Other principals still in the district are Highland Elementary Assistant Principal Sue Ann Gaus and Highland High Assis-

tant Prncipal and Athletic Director Larry Post.

The board was also expected to de-cide at the Wednesday, May 9 meeting, to make a decision on a replacement board member for Harry Scifres. The three candidates are Terry Faulconer and Donna Collier, both with previous school board experience, and C-1 supporter Ja-mie Brennan. Ebeling said the board in-terviewed the candidates in April, and by board policy, the person is appointed and sworn-in at the next meeting.

For the fi rst time in two decades, Culver-Stockton will offi cially kick-off a public fundraising campaign to-day.

A video “A Vision for our Future” will be part of the $10.4 million cam-paign kick-off at 4 p.m. at East Wing of the Carl Johann Memorial Library.

Actually, the campaign was ap-proved in May 2011, and has been in a silent fundraising for a year. The campaign is planned for three years, and includes a recreation and well-ness center, renovations to the Carl Johann Memorial Library, endowment growth, a more robust annual giving program for student scholarships, and campus beautifi cation projects, includ-ing paving and parking.

The public is invited.

The Canton Tigers improved to 13-3 on the year by squeezing out a victory over Paris by a score of 3-2. The Tigers were led by a complete game on the mound by Austin Hoew-ing. Brandon Berhorst picked up two hits for the Tigers. The Tigers fi nish up the regular season next week with games against Highland, South Shel-by, and Brashear.

The Canton Tigers JV team was victorious 3-2. Nathan Lewis picked up the win, was relieved by Reece Carmichael, and then Cory “Tank” Martz earned the save on the mound for the Tigers.

This LaGrange building on the corner of Main and Washington Street has been a landmark for over 100 years. Time and fl ooding has taken its tole on the former grand structure. Demolition began Monday and will continue this week.

FIREFIGHTERS RECEIVE CHECKCanton Ferry landing improvements to begin in June

The Lewis County-Canton Missouri Port Authority has awarded a bid to Boone Construction Company of Columbia, for improvements to the ferry landing on the riverfront in Canton.

Boone was the low bidder for a contract to provide a wide steel loading ramp for the ferry and concrete paving leading up to the ramp.

The work will be funded through a Ferry Boat Discretionary grant from the Missouri Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration. Contingent upon MoDOT’s approval of the bid, work will begin in June and is estimated to take three months.

During the improvements, the ferry will remain open. The $188,000 grant was sought in 2008 and was awarded to the Port Authority in 2010. Initial bids exceeded the grant amount and the plans were revised and re-bid.

The primary customer for the Canton Ferry has been the grain terminal in Meyer, Illinois, owned and operated by Ursa Farmers Cooperative (UFC) as farmers take their grain trucks across the river for delivery to the elevator. Ursa Farmers Coop has begun construction on a grain terminal in Canton in an effort to provide its Missouri customers a convenient delivery point for their grain. The UFC has stated their desire to see the ferry stay open and available not only to farmers but also to all those who use the ferry for crossing the river.

The Port Authority is working with Senator Brian Munzlinger, Representative Craig Redmon, and UFC to pursue funding to allow the ferry to continue to operate for the convenience of its customers.

The Canton Ferry began in 1853 and is the longest continuously operating ferry on the Mississippi River.

River levels were up throughout the County after several days of rain last week.

Lock 20 in Canton reported 2.22 inches of rain for the week. For the North and Middle Fabius, the rainfall for the week was reported at 1.22 inches. For the Wyaconda River west of Canton, 1.7 inches was reported.

Farm Service Agency reported .83 inches of rain for the fi rst week in May.

Rivers rise after rainy week in CountyBY DAN STEINBECK

[email protected]

The river level prompted the National Weather Service to issue a fl ood warning for the North Fabius River near Ewing, which was to expire May 9.

The North Fabius level was 11.34 feet, and up 5.51 feet in the prior 24 hours. Flood stage is 17 feet.

The Middle Fabius River level on Monday was 9.61 feet, up 4.34 feet in 24 hours. Flood stage is 13 feet.

The South Fabius River

above Newark had a level reading of 6.83 feet Monday, up 3.44 feet from the previous day. No fl ood stage was listed on-line.

The Wyaconda River west of Canton had a Monday reading of 15.36 feet, up 5.71 feet from the previous day. Flood stage is 18 feet.

Lock 20 in Canton saw a brief spike in the river level to 11.33 feet May 6, but was rapidly falling. Flood stage is 14 feet.

On Monday, May 14 at 7:00 p.m. during their monthly board meeting at La Belle City Hall, the La Belle city board members will vote on whether or not to continue to allow

No More Horses in La Belle?

horses to be kept inside the city limits. To voice your opinion, please be present during the meeting or contact La Belle Mayor Larry Hackemack prior to the meeting.

PNJ Intern Andrew RedmonMy name is Andrew

Redmon; I will gradu-ate from Culver-Stockton College this May major-ing in media communica-tions and I’m Canton R-V graduate from 2008. In college I have been apart of many organizations and groups such as a member of Lambda Chi Alpha fra-ternity, staff writer for The Megaphone Culver-Stock-ton’s newspaper, station manager of KCSW Cul-ver-Stockton’s radio, and I also do play by play for all Culver-Stockton sports on the radio.

I am the son of State Representative Craig Redmon and Brenda Red-mon, who runs the Lewis County License Offi ce. I have a twin sister Audrey Barton who is employed at the Bank of Monticello and a brother in-law Luke Barton who recently be-

came a deputy sheriff for Lewis County. I’m also employed with Ayers Oil Company and the United States Post Offi ce. After graduation I am looking to get into the radio business as an on-air personality. One of my dreams is to bring back a radio station to Canton.

This year is an election year for State Representa-tive that means campaign-ing will begin as the sum-mer starts. Helping my dad on the campaign intro-duces me to several new faces and new organiza-tions. Attending campaign meetings taught me a lot about our District. Anoth-er thing I picked up on by being the son of Craig and Brenda Redmon- you will meet and know everyone! When you can walk into a room and know four or fi ve people because of you

parents is a privilege.I have just completed

a three-week internship at the Press-News Journal and it was such a pleas-ant experience. I had the opportunities to write my own stories, take pictures of various events, edited stories, sell advertising, and conduct interviews. Writing for The Mega-phone has given me some experience in writing sto-ries; however, working for the Press-News Journal has helped me become more professional in how my stories are written.

I would like to thank the staff here at Press-News for allowing me to come in and learn about how the newspaper in-dustry runs. I would also like to applaud this staff in doing a fantastic job with this newspaper.

Al Beck has produced yet another book of poetry. Al Beck’s Exuberant Efforts is an acronym for ‘a bee’, with bite following the title. The idea behind the title of Al Beck’s 20th poetry book is to sting the reader’s consciousness and make the reader think about the human condition. In between serious ideas, Beck uses word play and nutty rhymes to give deeper philosophies Al has discovered after his 80 years of life. Currently, Beck’s poetry books have subscribers from around the world, and Beck has won multiple awards, including a Missouri award for his poem “Aging Idea”, “Best in Show”, etc. Beck was also put on a list of “200 Authors of All Time That You Must Read” by a college professor in Germany.

Air conditioning- the best invention since… ever

A salute to a true friend of many

BY DAN STEINBECKEDITOR

[email protected]

STEINBECK

Let’s postpone the hu-mor this week. Instead let us remember one of the great cheerleaders for the Canton Community, Don-ald Eugene Sykes.

People’s memories will differ of him. Some re-member bowling with - or against him. Even bowl-ing against him, it was as if one had another team member offering support, just wearing the oppo-nents bowling shirt.

Some will remem-ber how he encouraged those lost in the military to not be forgotten. He served the Country, then he served his community coordinating the Memo-rial Day services for years, placing fl ags on veterans graves, and marching with fellow American Legion Members in parades.

Some will remember the businessman, pour-ing a cherry Coke at the soda fountain, making a Hawkshaw, or selling a roll of fi lm or fl ash cubes at Don’s Grand Leader.

Some will remember his infectious smile as he wore a tall Culver-Stock-ton blue and white striped hat, perched on a ladder taking homecoming pa-rade pictures and greet-ing dozens of returning alumni.

Some will remember him coming back from mowing the former Riv-er Valley Country Club course, with his wrist-watch fastened to a polo shirt buttonhole.

Some will remember his work for and with youth in the Little Peo-ple’s Golf Tournament, and likely helped bring the tournament to Lewis County for several years.

Some will remember his dedication to church, school, and other commu-nity boards.

Some will remember his general positive atti-

tude for the community, the college, and whatever role he was currently serv-ing.

Some will remember general dedication to Cul-ver-Stockton College and appreciation to his alma mater.

Don was an auxiliary reporter/photographer for this newspaper. When commissioned, he made a list of organizations he would cover without pay for them. Hours before the Press-News Journal was sold, and he was told about the upcoming news, he wistfully wondered if any downtown business-es of the community he loved would be around in 50 years.

When a community leader passes, there is a fear the town will never be the same. It’s a val-id concern, and for the things Don did to contin-ue, someone will have to step up. To continue all of these things, many people will need to step up.

Those wanting to do such things because Don would have done them, need to re-think his mo-tive. Don did them be-cause they were right for the community, and we who follow should have the same mind set.

Sad as it is to have lost Don Sykes, sadder still is thought of the Canton area never having the ben-efi t of such a community cheerleader.

Growing up in the South, it’s very rare to fi nd a home without central heating and air, so I was quite surprised to fi nd that many homes in this area don’t have them. I’ve seen many homes with gas heaters and win-dow unit AC’s since my husband and I came here around ten months ago.

I’ve only been without central heat and air one time in my life. My hus-band and I had just made the decision to move in together, and his grandpar-ents had found us an inex-pensive place to rent. The house was massive, out in the middle of the country, and practically a billion years old. The only sources of heat were oddly placed gas heaters and a large wood fi replace in the living room and there wasn’t any air conditioning. I was a hostess at a restaurant, and my husband was doing odd jobs for a car restoration shop. Needless to say, we were a far cry from mega-millionaires.

During the winter, we huddled together under all the blankets we could fi nd in hopes to keep warm through the night. We went out into the woods behind the house and cut wood for the fi replace every night so we could sleep in front of the fi re. In the summer, I would soak wash cloths in water and stick them in the freezer for a few minutes before applying them to my nearly scorching skin. Because our house was so old, it always seemed hotter in the house than outside during the sum-mer and colder inside the house than outside during the winter.

My husband and I still laugh about snuggling together to keep warm. Being without central air made me have such an appreciation and respect for the people who are in the same situation. I don’t understand why central air isn’t a big hit in the Mid-west because it’s just as hot here as it is in Georgia, but the people who have chosen not to have air con-ditioning have chosen that for a good reason.

JournalMay 6, 1887

Allison and Co. of Mil-waukee have received the contract for putting the rollers in the Flouring Mill at Steffenville at $3400.

The fi re engine house in Canton was burned on Monday morning. The en-gine, hose cart, and hook and ladder truck were saved but scorched a little. The fi re was discovered by Capt. Jansen of Quincy, who had just arrived on the two o’clock train and com-ing up from the depot dis-covered the fi re and gave the alarm. Before help got there he pulled all of the equipment out.

The LaBelle School was once a thriving place of activity, but has now been closed for several years. Many memories remain of a time when the building was full of children and laughter. This photo was loaned by the Lewis County Historical Society.

During demolition, workers found this tombstone in the basement of the building at 109 South Main in LaGrange. The name on the stone reads Gray, with Joseph F. , Jan. 5, 1889 - Mar. 29, 1967 and Effi e, Sept. 28, 1894 and no death date. City offi cials and Brad Davis of Davis Funeral Home are researching to fi nd out where the stone belongs and how it ended in the basement of the building. Anyone with information about Joseph Gray should contact LaGrange City Hall.

Missouri Agriculture Photo & Video Contest Captures Life on the Farm

The Missouri Department of Agriculture launched the 3rd annual Focus on Missouri Agriculture contest, asking Missourians to help capture the unique stories and images of agriculture through photographs and videos. The contest, which will run through June 15, asks amateur photographers and videographers from all over the state to submit their best images of a beautiful Missouri farm, a snapshot of a farm tractor that has been in the family for years or the fun and excitement of a child at agritourism operation.

“This contest will allow Missourians to share their favorite moments on their farms with others who share a love for agriculture and those that want to learn more about life on the farm,” said Director of Agriculture Dr. Jon Hagler. “Every farm in our state has a story to tell and this is a great way to capture those stories and to share them with others.”

The Focus on Missouri Agriculture Photo and Video Contest is open to Missouri’s amateur photographers of all ages. Participants may enter up to three photos in each of the fi ve categories and up to two videos in each of three categories. The photography categories include: The Beauty of the Farm, Faces of the Farm, The Farming Life, The Pride of the Farm and Children’s Barnyard, which is open to photographers age 12 and under. Videography categories include: Stories of Years Gone By, Humorous Farm Stories and Farm Safety,

in which videographers create 30-second public service announcements on the importance of safety on the farm.

Entries will be judged on visual impact, creativity, memorable content and image quality.

The contest offers big prizes and many chances to win thanks to the Missouri Department of Agriculture’s AgriMissouri program. A $200 AgriMissouri gift basket will be awarded to the winner in each category, and the second-place winner in each category will receive a $100 AgriMissouri gift. The single image and video selected as the judge’s favorites overall will each receive a $500 gift basket as the Best of Show winner. Winners will be announced at the 2012 Missouri State Fair in Sedalia, Aug. 9-19 and the images will be displayed during the State Fair in the Agriculture Building.

For a complete list of rules and guidelines, visit http://mda.mo.gov/focus/. Photos and videos submitted to the contest will be placed on the contest website and available on the Department’s Flickr group and YouTube page. Photos must be submitted by June 15.

More information about the Missouri Department of Agriculture and its programs is available online at http://www.mda.mo.gov.

Missouri’s transportation system is in the midst of a drastic funding shortage, and unless a solution is found, the situation will only get worse. Missouri’s construc-tion program has dropped from an average of $1.2 bil-lion in recent years to about $700 million. It’s barely enough to maintain the existing system, much less tackle the projects that create jobs, increase safety, ease congestion and foster economic development.

The draft 2013-2017 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program lists transportation projects planned by state and regional planning agencies for fi scal years 2013 through 2017 (July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2017). The proposed program is available for

New State Transportation Program Refl ects Funding Freefall

public review beginning May 2.Those interested in seeing the program or offering

comments can contact MoDOT’s customer service cen-ters at 888-275-6636 or www.modot.org, and at Mo-DOT district and regional offi ces around the state. The formal comment period ends June 1, 2012.

Following the public review period, the comments will be presented to the Missouri Highways and Trans-portation Commission. The commission will review the comments and the fi nal transportation program before considering it for approval at its July 11 meeting in Washington.

Lewis County USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director John Wheeler, reminds producers that the annual crop certifi cation deadlines are quickly approaching. Filing an accurate acreage report for all crops and land uses, including failed acreage and prevented planted acreage, are critical for FSA program eligibility.

Wheeler said July 2, 2012, is the fi nal date to report fall barley, wheat and other fall and spring seeded small grains.

Producers need to be aware that the date to report corn, grain sorghum, soybean, CRP and other acreages must be reported

USDA Crop Certifi cation Deadlines for Lewis Co. Approaching

by July 15. Since July 15 also falls on a weekend in 2012, reports will be accepted through July 16.

Wheeler reminds producers to report crop losses insured through Federal Crop Insurance and the Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) within 15 days of the disaster or as soon as the loss is apparent. Prevented planting must be reported no later than 15 days after the fi nal planting date.

For questions regarding crop certifi cation and crop loss reports, or to schedule an appointment, please contact the Lewis County FSA offi ce at 573-767-5274.

MoDOT crews will begin mowing roadsides across Northeast Missouri and many places all over the state through May. The goal is to complete the mowing of all state roads to provide good visibility at intersections and a pleasant though not manicured ap-pearance by Memorial Day weekend, the fi rst major travel holiday of the year.

For drivers who come up behind a mowing opera-tion: be alert for trucks and tractors with lights fl ashing and moving slowly, 2 mph to 5 mph; slow down and focus on the road ahead;

MoDot to begin mowing roadsideavoid talking on a cell phone or other distractions; be prepared to stop or drive very slowly behind a “fol-low” truck, especially ap-proaching a hill or curve on a two-lane road; pass when you can see far enough past the “follow” truck to avoid meeting oncoming traffi c; pass the tractor when it is safe.

Annual Coin Show Opens to PublicBY DAVID MORGANSTAFF WRITER

This year the annual International Coin Collectors Association will open it’s doors to the general public. The five day coin show is a unique op-portunity for anyone that has coins, whether it’s a single coin or an entire collection. They can meet with and sell directly to the collector’s club. Admission is free and there is no ob-ligation to sell. The types of coins the collectors are looking for include sil-ver dollars, half dollars, quarters and dimes dated 1964 and before. Actu-

ally, the half dollars can date all the way to 1970. The government used silver to make most U. S. coinage until 1965 when they started using cheaper clad. Silver coins made before 1965 are made with 90 percent silver and are worth many times their face value because of today’s high silver market. Recently, silver has been trading for about $32 per oz. Five years ago, sil-ver was just over $4 per oz. This dra-matic increase has raised the price of these silver coins dramatically. There-fore, people that have these coins are selling them to take advantage of the

record high prices. During this five day event, those who have coins they wish to sell will be able to do just that. Unlike selling your coins at a pawn shop or one of those traveling “we buy anything” sales, this show is operated by collectors who pay much higher prices.

This show isn’t just for silver coins either. They are also interested in gold coins, paper currency, nickels and pennies too. The United States government started minting coins in 1792. If those early coins are in good condition, they can be worth

big money. For instance, a 1792 sil-ver dollar could be worth as much as $20,000 if it’s the right one. Compare that to a common wheat back penny from the 1960’s— still collectible but only worth a few cents. Old paper cur-rency can be worth a lot too. A com-mon silver certificate is only worth a couple of bucks but an 1890’s $20 bill in excellent condition could be worth thousands. This event is a place you can learn about the coins and paper currency that you have and a chance to sell directly to collectors.

NEWS IN BRIEFSTAFF REPORT

Mary Childs was amazed at the value of the coin collection she had taken to the local coin collec-tors’ show. Mary’s uncle had col-lected coins throughout his entire life. Harry was 12 years old in 1965 when he took an interest in coin collecting. Going through his father’s pocket change became a daily ritual.

That’s around the time when the government stopped using sil-ver to make coins and started using the much cheaper clad. Harry was intrigued by the silver coins—they were colder to the touch than the newer clad coins and they sounded different when they clanked to-gether. Harry thought these silver coins would eventually be taken out of circulation and may be worth something more than face value some day. He was right. Through the sixties and much of the seven-ties it was not uncommon to find these silver coins in pocket change. However, when they made their way back to the mint, they would be replaced with the newer clad coins. The silver coins would be melted down and gone forever.

Harry accumulated quite a col-lection over the years. The silver coins he collected were not very rare—in fact, they were mostly heavily circulated and had common dates. But in the past 4 years, silver has risen to record high prices. Cur-rently, silver is trading for around $33 per oz. That makes coins dated 1964 and earlier worth many times their face value.

Uncle Harry was right—these coins were worth keeping. Harry enjoyed collecting these coins throughout his life and now he could do something special for someone close to him. Harry never had children of his own, but was very close to his brother’s only child, Mary. Mary had worked hard and was very independent. She took out student loans to get through college and had recently graduated. She had just landed her first job and was starting to build a life for herself. Harry decided to give his coin collection to Mary and have her sell it to pay down her student loans. At first, Mary didn’t accept the offer because she wanted to do things on her own, but Uncle Harry was pretty persistent.

After separating the coins by denomination and type, Mary load-ed up the coins and headed to our coin show. After a short registra-tion, Mary was seated in front of one of the coin experts. The volume of coins Mary brought in prompted the collector to summon the help of two additional collectors. After counting all the coins and total-ing them up, ($2374.75 in face value alone) the offer was made: $37,996.00. Mary had to ask the collector to repeat the offer again. She started crying tears of joy and said “SOLD!” Neither she nor her uncle had any idea that his col-lection was worth that much. The student loans would be paid in full, with money left over. It was a good day for Mary…a very good day!
