A motorcycle crash, one half mile north of Ewing on Route C, claimed the life of a Ewing man on July 25. According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Benjamin C. Pratt of Ewing, Mo., died when a 2001 Harley Davison motorcycle he was driving ran off the west side of the roadway. Pratt was apparently thrown from the vehicle. Authorities estimate the time of accident around 8:50 p.m. A passing motorist discov-ered the accident.

Assisting were the Lewis County Sheriff’s Department, Ewing Fire Department and the Lewis county Ambulance Service.

This is the 21st fatal traffi c acci-dent in the patrol’s 16 county area this year. An obituary for Pratt ap-pears in this edition.

Missouri’s Primary election is Tuesday, August 7. In Lewis County, there are several races, three county issues and one state issue. A copy of the offi cial ballots appear in this edition. Polling locations are also listed. Voters must choose the party ballot from which they wish to pick candidates, but choosing a ballot does not mean a voter has to be registered in that party, because Missouri is a non-partisan state. In the November General Election, people will have one ballot and will pick from the choices made in the primary

election.Voters statewide will

decide on constitutional amendment No. 2, which states “shall the Missouri constitution be amended to ensure- that the right of Missouri citizens to express their religious beliefs shall not be infringed. That school children have the right to pray and acknowledge God voluntarily in their schools; and that all public schools shall display the Bill of Rights of the United States constitution. It is estimated this proposal will result in little or no costs or saving for state and local governmental offi ces.”

In local issues Proposition F states: Shall the County of Lewis adopt the Local

Option Fence Law as set forth in Sections 272.210 through Section 272.370 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri?

Proposition R states: Shall the County of Lewis make permanent (originally imposed January 1, 1989) a countywide sales tax at the rate of three-eighths (3/8) of one (1) percent for the purposes of improving bridges, and other capital improvements in the Road & Bridge Fund, which would otherwise terminate December 31, 2016, or be renewed January 1, 2017? (Estimated savings to the County of $4,000.00 every four years).

Proposition S states: Shall the County of Lewis make

permanent a countywide sales tax, which became effective October 1, 1989, of three-eighths (3/8) of one (1) percent for general revenue to be used for the general operations of the County, which would otherwise terminate September 30, 2014, or be renewed beginning October 1, 2014? (Estimated savings to the County of $4,000.00 every fi ve years)

Local candidates were asked to submit a profi le to the Press-News Journal and responses appear on page 3A.

Some county residents reported receiving a small amount of rain last week. These clouds over LaGrange looked as though they might produce some rain, but most residents in that area received less than half an inch. Hot weather and little chance of rain is predicted for the next few days.

A ribbon cutting for Sugar Creek Bridge on Highway 16 between Canton and Monticello was held July 26. Many local and state offi cials attended. Lewis County Commissioner Wayne (Fid) Murphy and Southern Commissioner Jessie Roberts cut the ribbon. State Senator Brian Munzlinger and State Representative Craig Redmon held a ban-ner that in part, read Completed as Promised. The bridge unoffi cially opened to traffi c July 24.

The Missouri Soybean Association reports that Gov. Jay Nixon recently an-nounced an emergency program to assist farmers in accessing water for crops and livestock.

Farmers across Missouri have been highly impacted by hay and water short-ages as a result of the extreme heat and drought conditions.

Nixon declared a state of emergency on July 23, due to concern for crop and livestock producers, fi re and public risk. At the request of Nixon, earlier this month, the U.S. Department of Agricul-ture declared agricultural disaster in all 114 Missouri counties so that farmers could be eligible for federal assistance.

“Because of the shortage of hay and the stress on their animals from the heat, livestock producers have been especially hard-hit by the extreme weather condi-tions affecting almost the entire state of Missouri,” Gov. Nixon said.

The emergency program, now avail-able through the State Soil and Water Districts Commission, will aide farmers who propose a water project that brings immediate benefi t to crops or livestock and not adversely affect a public water supply.

Gov. Nixon announces emergency program for agriculture

Traditionally, soil and water cost-share programs provide 75 percent of project cost. Under this emergency program, 90 percent of costs will be covered, with a maximum cost-share project of $20,000.

In addition to the emergency cost-share program, Gov. Nixon has established the Agriculture Water Resource Technical Review Team. The team will consist of Missouri Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources staff, who have exper-tise in water and resource management. The team will aide in processing appli-cations and assist in implementing the emergency cost-share program, so that all applications receive immediate atten-tion within the 72 hour time period.

Farmers must apply by Aug. 6, 2012, at their local soil and water district offi ce. They can also fi le an application online at MO.gov.

To access a hay directory or other re-sources online visit mda.gov

The Missouri Soybean Association (MSA) is a statewide membership or-ganization designed to increase the profi tability of Missouri soybean farm-ers through legislative advocacy, public policy initiatives and education efforts across the state.

According to the U.S. Drought Monitor Report released by the U.S. De-partment of Agriculture this month, 93 percent of Missouri is experiencing severe to extreme drought conditions. Unfortunately, these extremely dry con-ditions have heightened the danger of fi re through-out Missouri. Missouri fi refi ghters have already worked numerous fi res along roadways. Colonel Ron Replogle, superinten-dent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, cautions Missouri drivers to avoid driving in areas where smoke from these fi res af-fects visibility.

Patrol Reminds Motorists: Avoid Driving Into SmokeWhen smoke affects

visibility on a roadway, drivers must exercise ex-treme caution. The best decision is not to drive in smoke. If one must drive under these conditions, there are actions that driv-ers should take to protect themselves and their pas-sengers.

• Slow down. Don’t over drive sight distance.

• Turn on low-beam headlights.

• If the smoke becomes so thick that a driver can-not see well enough to keep driving, pull all the way off the pavement, stop, and turn on emergen-cy fl ashers.

• The space between a vehicle and the roadway should be suffi cient so that it can safely exit the vehicle without obstruct-ing traffi c.

• Report the hazard to the nearest Missouri State Highway Patrol troop headquarters or local law enforcement, so that steps can be taken to warn other drivers about the hazard.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Emer-gency Report number is

1-800-525-5555 or *55 on a cellular phone. No-tify local law enforcement by calling 9-1-1.

I have been blessed to be a part of the Lew-is County community. Many have been support-ive of my family, our busi-ness and me personally. I would like the opportuni-ty to serve as Coroner for a community that has giv-en much to me. As your Conservative Republican candidate, I believe the offi ce requires and de-serves dedication, integri-ty and a high level of eth-ics, morals and character. As a Christian I try to live out these values in all that I do. I would bring to the position of Coroner over 21 years of experience in dealing with all aspects of this offi ce. I am a graduate of Canton High School, Culver-Stockton College and Mid-America College of Funeral Service. I am a licensed funeral direc-tor and embalmer in both Missouri and Illinois and have worked in funeral

service since 1976. I am National Board Certifi ed in funeral service and hold the designation of Certi-fi ed Funeral Service Prac-titioner (CFSP). If elected, I promise to work diligent-ly, discreetly and in a time-ly manner for all of Lewis County. I believe there is a difference in candidates and I would be honored to serve you. Please exer-cise your right to vote on August 7th and November 6th.

Jesse Roberts

I am currently the Southen Commissioner of Lewis County. I am a lifetime resident of Lewis Coutny and have been a self-employed farmer for over 40 years. I am also currently on the NECAC Board.

During my time in as Commissioner, we have been able to balance the County budget each year, even during tough eco-nomic times. We have continued to provide in-creased services and im-provements in the county through careful planning and the use of State and Federal grants. Addition-ally, we have been able to replace 56 bridges in the county and have made im-provements to the Court-house, the annex building and the Extension offi ce.

The roads remain a top priority even with the ris-ing cost of maintenance. Increases in the costs of fuel and materials have made balancing the bud-get a more complex task. Experience will be im-

portant during the coming years to continue to main-tain a balanced budget for Lewis County.

My responsibilities as Southern Commissioner are very important to me. I know Lewis County residents depend on me to respond to their concerns and I strive to do so in a timely manner. I am look-ing forward to continuing to serve Lewis County as Southern commssioner with your support in the August 7th primary and the November 6th General Election.

Jon Simmons

Hello, my name is Jon Simmons, your candi-date for Southern Com-missioner. I was born in Lewis County and raised on a farm near Steffen-ville. I am one of six boys born to Glenn and Betty Simmons. I have been married to my wife Betty for 22 years. We have 4 children, 4 grandchildren and one on the way. We are Christian by faith.

My family has lived in Lewis County for gen-

erations and we have been engaged in farming and construction. I started working with my father as a kid and worked for Sharpe Land & Cattle for 25 years. After retiring from there I started 4 Him Construction with my son. I feel I can benefi t the county with my expe-rience. With these tough economic times we need to get the biggest bang for the tax payers buck. Your vote will be greatly ap-preciated in the November election.

Brett Bozarth

My name is Brett Bo-zarth and I am a candidate for the offi ce of Lewis County Public Adminis-trator. I currently reside south of LaGrange on my family’s farm, and I am the 7th generation of my fami-ly to live in Lewis County.

I have been li-censed to practice law in the state of Missouri since 2008, and I have an offi ce in Canton.

I have served as Public Administrator since I was appointed by Governor Nixon in March of 2011 after the resignation of William Murphy, the pre-vious Public Administra-tor, due to health issues. I had the pleasure of serving as the Public Administra-tor’s Attorney in the year prior to Mr. Murphy’s res-ignation; during that time I acquired a unique un-derstanding of the offi ce and its duties.

make sure we are always headed in the right direc-tion. I am a fi rm believer that if you are honest with people, speak your mind, and have good communi-cation skills that is always the best policy in any situ-ation that may arise. I have a beautiful wife Amber and three wonderful boys, Chase (12), Carter (8), and Brady (6), and reside on the Campen family farm near Monticello.

The fl eet of James Caldwell’s Canton Marine Towing business continues to grow. The Sir Robert and the Sir Fredrick will be christened during Can-ton’s River Heritage Days. The other nine named boats are Sir Douglas, Sir James, Sir Joseph, Sir Randall, Sir William, Sir-ene, Sir J’etta, Sir Larry J and Sir Earl. Two other boats are being rebuilt and are yet to be “Sir” named. They are the Lindwood and the Bessie Catherine.

The Norris Hinton fam-ily of Monticello was re-cently named as the 1987 Lewis County State Fair Family.

A Canton woman, Re-gan Kenner, set a world record in the 200 meter breast stroke in a Central Masters Swim meet at SIU Carbondale. Kenner took a remarkable 4.6 seconds off the former time for women in the age group of 60 -64. Additionally she broke four existing Cen-tral Masters record and took fi rst place in all fi ve of the events she entered. Mrs. Kenner, who swims mostly breast stroke, and originally entered compe-tition only last September at the Illinois State Se-nior Olympics, says she is competition largely to prove the viability of the breast stroke as a racing stoke for longer distances.

Field operations of your soil and water conserva-tion district began three years ago, Aug. 1, 1959. Since that time much ac-tivity in the fi eld of soil and water conservation has taken place all over the county. The county pro-gram is directed and man-aged by an elected board of supervisors who meet monthly in the district of-fi ce at Monticello. The present board consists of Hurley Burke, Monticel-lo; Glenn Daggs, Ewing; Stuart Tracey, LaGrange; Roy Haden, LaBelle and Wayne Reidenbach, Can-ton.

- Mod Podge, which is decoupage glue that dries white. It’s around four or fi ve bucks as well, but some people have learned to make it themselves for less and tutorials can be found online.

- A small paintbrush.- Scrapbook paper.- Acrylic paint.- Scissors.- Letters. I just so hap-

pened to have a Cricut that my husband bought me for our anniversary, so I used one of the cartridges to cut out the letters, if you don’t have a Cricut, I also would suggest buying letters (scrapbook or thin wooden letters).

All in all, the project shouldn’t cost more than $20, which is actually a little steep in my opinion, but I think it makes up for itself in ease.

Step One: Begin by cut-ting your scrapbook paper to the size that you need it. (If you bought the canvas that was stretched over the wooden frame, don’t wor-ry about cutting the scrap-book paper to cover the white places on the sides, just cut enough to cover the front because the sides will be painted later.) So, I cut my scrapbook paper to

DIY Canvas Name Board

be 8x10 inches. Step Two: After the

scrapbook paper is cut for all of your canvas, break out the mod podge and the paintbrush. I found that I got better results when I painted the glue to the backside of the scrap booking paper and then applied it to the canvas as opposed to painting the glue to the canvas. There were less air bubbles and it was easier to smooth out the air bubbles that were there.

Step Three: While they are drying, prepare your letters. If you bought let-ters, they are already pre-cut so you don’t have to worry about the size. If they are wooden, paint them with a color of your choice or leave them as they are. If you’re work-ing with a Cricut, it may be best to test your letter sizes. Some of my letters I made were 6 and 3/4” while others were 7 1/4”. I wanted them to all appear the same size, even if they technically weren’t.

Step Four: Glue your letters to the center of the scrapbook-covered can-vas. If they are made of paper or cardstock, use the mod podge over them as well. Allow time to dry.

Step Five: After all the glue has dried, paint the outside rim of the canvas with the acrylic paint. For my project, I chose a baby pink color since the name board is going into Ama-ya’s room.

Your completed project should end up looking like this:

August 3 marks the beginning of Missouri’s 9th annual “Back-to-School” Sales Tax Holiday - a time for shoppers in Missouri to save money on computers, clothes and school supplies. By state law, the sales tax holiday begins on the fi rst Friday in August and continues through the following Sunday.

This year, the three-day holiday begins at midnight on Friday, Aug. 3, and runs through Sunday, Aug. 5. During this time period, the state’s 4.225 percent sales tax will not be assessed on certain purchases made in Missouri.

Local governments can participate in the holiday and increase the savings for shoppers, or opt out of the holiday and maintain local tax revenue during the holiday.

The state sales tax will not be charged on the following items during the holiday:

*Clothing that does not have a value of more than $100. Eligible clothing includes standard items of apparel worn on or about the body, and includes footwear. It also includes material to make school uniforms or other school clothing. It does NOT include accessories such as watches, jewelry, handbags, handkerchiefs, umbrellas, scarves, ties, headbands and belt buckles.

*School supplies, not exceeding $50 per purchase, that are used in a standard classroom for educational purposes. School supplies include textbooks, notebooks, paper, pens, pencils, crayons, art supplies, rulers, book bags, backpacks, handheld calculators, chalk, maps and

Computer software is considered a school supply and is free from sales tax if its value is less than $350.

Although anyone making qualifi ed purchases does not have to be a student to benefi t from the holiday, the sales tax exemption event is commonly referred to as the Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday because it occurs near the beginning of the traditional school year for most students.

hits of the 50’s and 60’s. Following the play the group traveled to Bev-ier for dinner at the Pear Tree, which was fun and a delicious experience. Charilyn was happy to see Kerry and Cherilyn Wil-liams, long time friends from Canton, on the same bus.

The 12-county area, 36-member Board of Directors of NECAC elected offi cers for 2012-2013 during a meeting at the agency’s Central Administration Executive Offi ce Building in Bowling Green. Pictured seated, from left, are the Rev. D.

Pictured standing, from left, are Trustees Mike Bridgins of St. Peters in St. Charles County and John Bracey of Canton in Lewis County, and NECAC President and Chief Executive Offi cer Don Patrick of Louisiana.

Don Patrick, President and Chief Executive Offi cer of the not-for-profi t North East Community Action Corporation (NECAC), announced that six members of the 36-member board of directors have been re-elected as offi cers to make up the board’s executive committee for 2012-2014.

The six-member executive committee meets between regular semi-monthly board meeting with the agency president and chief executive offi cer, who is a non-voting member, to perform such duties as assigned by the board of directors and acts on behalf of the full board on routine and ordinary business matters requiring immediate action.

Marion County Presiding Commissioner Lyndon Bode of Palmyra was re-elected as chairman. Re-elected as vice-chairman was Fred Vahle of Warrenton in Warren County. The Rev. D. Randall Cone of Louisiana in Pike County will serve as secretary while Mike Bridgins of St. Peters in St. Charles County, Troy Dawkins of Shelbina in Shelby County and John Bracey of Canton in Lewis County will again fi ll terms as trustees. Bracey has served on the board since 1999.

NECAC is a 12-county area not-for-profi t social service, community health and public housing Community Action Agency. NECAC administers more than 60 programs through contracts and grants with federal, state and local governments, private businesses and other not-for profi t organizations to operate and administer self-suffi ciency service programs for the low-income, elderly, youth, disabled and disadvantaged population. The agency’s Central Administration Offi ces are located in Bowling Green, with NECAC Service Centers operated in each county.

The agency has an annual budget of more than $26 million, with 110 full-time and more than 200 part-time employees.

NECAC is governed by a 36-member volunteer board of directors with

three representatives from each of the 12 counties served. Each county is represented by one Public Elected Offi cial (PEO), one Civic Interest Representative (CIR) and one Low-Income Representative (LIR).

The six re-elected offi cers and the entire 36-member volunteer board of directors will be offi cially installed during the agency’s Nov. 27 meeting.

Over 100 students in the Canton school district qualify for free and re-duced lunches. For many of these children, access to nutritional foods over the weekend is not available. To help combat childhood hunger, the Canton com-munity has teamed with the Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri to offer the Buddy Pack Pro-gram.

Buddy Packs are back-packs fi lled with kid-friendly, nutritious food that students take home over the weekend or holi-day periods to supplement their meals when there is not enough for them to eat at home. After the week-end, the kids bring their empty Buddy Pack back to school to be refi lled by local volunteers. The program continues week after week throughout the school year or as needed to keep the growing young-sters happy and healthy.

To help with the grow-ing need, local celebrites, Nurst Diane Jorgensen, Richard Horner and Sgt. Cory Bennett of the Canton Police Department waited on tables and served cus-tomers at Primos on July 25 and collected tips to be donated to the program.

Donations are needed to fi ll the packs and can be sent to Buddy Packs, Robyn Jarvis, administra-tor, 307 N. 6th Street, Can-ton, Mo. 63435. Kiwanas has graciously donated the

MoDOT Waives Fee for Moving Wide Hay Loads

Severe weather throughout Missouri and surrounding states has prompted a special hauling permit to help farmers move hay as needed for livestock. The permit will allow for the movement of wider loads through Dec. 31 of this year.

At the Department of Agriculture’s request, the Missouri Department of Transportation is waiving the fee for blanket oversize permits to haul wide loads of hay. The fee is waived through Dec. 31 on loads up to 12 feet, four inches wide, that are of legal height, length and weight.

In addition to the savings of up to $64, the waiver will allow hay movements to take place over holidays and at night, a practice not normally allowed. At night, or when visibility is less than 500 feet, drivers must use a refl ective, oversized load sign and clearance lights instead of fl ags at the edges of their loads.

“Missouri farmers are facing challenges as a result of the extremely dry conditions our state is experiencing,” said Director of Agriculture Dr. Jon Hagler. “Waiving the permit fee for our state’s farmers and haulers transporting hay will certainly help livestock and crop producers continue doing what they do best. We appreciate MoDOT’s continued cooperation and support of Missouri’s agriculture industry throughout these severe conditions.”

Because many highways are under repair and might have narrow lanes, drivers are expected to review their route for work zone restrictions before beginning their trip. They must adhere to all other permit requirements, such as proper signing and lighting, and they must stop at weigh stations.

Farmers should call MoDOT’s Motor Carrier Services offi ce at 1-800-877-8499 to report the year, make and license plate number of their power unit and provide their business name and address. Motor Carrier Services will then issue the permits by fax or email.

More resources and information about drought conditions, as well as a directory for producers needing to buy and sell hay are available online at mo.gov.

They trailed in the fi rst few innings of both champion-ship bracket games before mounting of-fensive bursts to take the lead and come out victorious. Well played defense by the entire team and some solid pitching also contributed to a successful weekend of baseball.

The Canton Oilers, sponsored by Ayers Oil Company and Rivertown Shirt Shop, participated in the Show-Me State Bas-ketball Games in Columbia July 27-29. The team was composed of eight players from area schools and competed in the ninth/tenth grade competitive division.

During the 15th an-nual Responsible Gaming Education Week (RGEW), July 30 to August 4, Mis-souri casino employees will serve as responsible gaming ambassadors as casinos focus on the gam-ing industry’s “All In” corporate social responsi-bility campaign.

Responsible Gam-ing Education Week was created by the Ameri-can Gaming Association (AGA) in 1998 to pro-mote responsible gaming and increase awareness of problem gambling issues among employees and customers nationwide.

“Responsible gaming is an ongoing priority of Missouri casino employ-ees, from top executives to front-line team mem-bers,” said Mike Winter, executive director of the Missouri Gaming Asso-ciation. “This year, our fo-cus is on educating casino

The American Board, a non-profi t dedicated to recruiting and certifying community-based teach-ers in Missouri, will host a public event in Canton on how local residents can become certifi ed Missouri teachers.

Attendees will learn what to expect in a career as a teacher and receive advisement on a personal-ized path to certifi cation.

Missouri Teacher Certi-fi cation Specialist Aman-da Brown will lead the event. Session will begin Wednesday, August 8 at 10 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. at the Canton Public Library, 409 Lewis St. Evening sessions start at 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. at the Com-fort Inn, 1701 Oak St. The event is free and open to the public.

“Anyone with a bach-elor’s degree can become a full-time teacher within a year as long as they plan the right path.” Brown said. “We are searching for people who have real-life experience and want to apply that experience in the classroom.”

Missouri casinos educate employees and patrons during Responsible Gaming Education Week

employees so they can share responsible gaming messages with their fami-lies, friends and casino pa-trons.”

Missouri casinos also will provide free respon-sible gaming brochures and other materials at ev-ery casino property during Responsible Gaming Edu-cation Week. Brochures include “The House Ad-vantage: A Guide to Un-derstanding the Odds,” “Taking the Mystery Out of the Machine: A Guide to Understanding Slot Ma-chines” and “Keeping It Fun: A Guide to Respon-sible Gaming.”

“The House Advantage: A Guide to Understanding the Odds,” explains the casino’s “house advan-tage,” the mathematical probabilities of various popular games and other factors a player should take into account when gambling, such as the amount wagered, the time spent playing a game and, to a degree, a player’s skill at certain games. The bro-chure also busts common myths such as so-called gambling “hot streaks.”

The AGA and the Na-tional Center for Respon-sible Gaming (NCRG) are teaming this year on a

research-based guidebook for human resources and employee assistance pro-fessionals with answers to frequently asked questions about gambling disorders and responsible gaming. The free guidebook is available for download at www.ncrg.org/gamblin-gandhealth.

The Missouri Gaming Association and its casino company members spon-sor and fund year-round programs to address re-sponsible gaming issues. Every Missouri casino property has a designated employee who serves as the director of responsible gaming programs for that location.

Missouri responsible gaming programs include:

• 1-888-BETSOFF - a statewide telephone crisis line and referral service for problem gambling.

• Project 21 – a schol-arship competition that addresses underage gam-bling;

• Operation Bet Smart – an awareness program that focuses on compul-sive gambling;

• Alcohol Awareness Programs – promote re-sponsible consumption of alcohol.

Recruiting teachers event in Canton

To date over 650 Mis-souri teachers have earned their certifi cation through the American Board. Brown personally helped over 60 Missourians be-come certifi ed since join-ing the American Board last year.

Brown can be contact-ed at [email protected] or (816) 885-9641. Visit www.abcte.org for more information.

The American Board is a state approved teacher certifi cation non profi t that certifi es career chang-ers, substitute teachers, paraprofessionals and out-of-fi eld teachers. Founded in 2001 via a grant from the U.S. Department of Education, the American Board’s focus is build-ing rural communities through education and employment. The Ameri-can Board’s program al-lows highly-knowledge-able individuals from within their community to earn certifi cation with-out additional class time, student teaching or state exams.
