Snow pictures taken by Mike Wallace from front door of newspaper office on Monday morning, February 15, 2021Normal paper next issue

A massive cold front stretching from Canada to Brownsville, Texas brought six to ten inches of a dry and blowing snow to portions of Arkan-sas. It began on Sunday around noon with light flurries and grew heavier as Sunday wound down so that nine to ten inches of snow fell in the Glenwood area. The depths grew in the northern and western parts of our state. This picture of downtown Glenwood show the tracks of people trying to travel to feed the cows and to check on neighbors. This snow fel on President’s Day when most federal, state and local governments were closed. photo by Mike Wallace

Sen. John Boozman

By US Sen. John Boozman(R-AR)

Like many Arkansans, I believe every life is pre-cious and that each person is made in the image of God with a unique purpose and undeniable worth. Whether we notice them or not, every human be-ing possesses fundamental, unalienable rights that we must not deny.

Sadly, that has not been the case in our nation in a variety of situations, but none is more tragic than in the case of the millions of children who have been de-prived of their right to life since the Supreme Court upheld the legal right to abortion in 1973.

Since then, a movement to protect these unborn ba-bies has worked diligently to attest to the inherent value of every child and build support around poli-cies to defend lives in the womb and prohibit abor-tion except in the rarest of circumstances. That move-ment is spear-headed by groups like the March for Life, the National Right to Life, the Susan B. Anthony List and so many others. We are grateful for their steadfast resolve to stand for the defenseless and end abortion.

We must continue to advance the cause of life and educate the public, in-cluding expectant parents, about when life begins and why it is worthy of protec-tion.

Throughout my time in Congress, I have supported policies and actions that

embolden and empower the pro-life agenda. The 117th Congress has just begun and I have already sponsored legislation to prohibit taxpayer funding of abortions – which Dem-ocrats are now threatening to pursue through ending the Hyde Amendment – and shield babies who, as science tells us, can feel pain as early as 20-weeks from cruel abortion proce-dures.

On this last issue, it is al-most unfathomable to be-lieve that the United States is just one of seven coun-tries in the entire world to allow on-demand abortion after 20 weeks of pregnan-cy. The other nations on this list include China and North Korea – not compa-ny we should wish to keep.

I’m also once again sup-porting pro-life bills to protect children born alive after an attempted abortion and prevent discrimination against babies diagnosed with Down syndrome from termination of pregnancy because of their condition. Every life is a priceless gift, and unborn babies di-agnosed with Down syn-drome are no exception.

Each human being, born or unborn, is capable of amazing things that exceed expectations and add much value and joy to the lives and families they are fortu-nate to be part of. I am hon-ored to stand up and speak out on their behalf and on behalf of those yet to be born so that they can real-ize their full potential and purpose. Our world would

be less bright and loving without them.

Recently, I was proud to learn I had received an A+ pro-life rating from the Su-san B. Anthony List for my record promoting the value of life during the last Con-gress. I truly believe that defending the most vulner-able among us is one of the most important things we can do because of what it says about us and our val-ues as a society.

I remain committed to protecting innocent and unborn children, support-ing policies that end abor-tion and preventing groups participating in the de-struction and devaluing of human life from receiving taxpayer dollars. We can be encouraged at how the pro-life movement contin-ues to expand as we unite to defend the sanctity of human life.

One day this effort and movement will culminate in the achievement we have been pursuing for so long – the protection of the unborn from abortion. I hope that day comes soon and am humbled to do my part to bring it to fruition.

LITTLE ROCK — The twister tail or curly-tailed grub is one of the most basic, but effective lures in the multi-species angler’s tacklebox.

By and large, the twister tail has become the bread-and-butter for crappie anglers, but the lure has much more potential than papermouths. Twister tails are available in sizes ranging from less than an inch long for bream and other small panfish to 5 or more inches to entice striped bass, largemouth bass and other big fish in search of big meals.

Made from soft-plastic, these swimming grub bodies can be found in pretty much any color imaginable, but most anglers stick to a handful of tried and true favor-ites. Tennessee shad (clear/green), lemon meringue (pearl white/chartreuse), and black/chartreuse typically hold the top spots in most angler’s boxes, but every lake has a particular “hot” color. For instance, anglers on Lake Con-way would feel naked without a sampling of twister tails in electric chicken (pink/chartreuse), and Lake Nimrod crappie hounds often tout purple/chartreuse as the color combination to beat.

Rigging a twister tail is as easy as fishing gets. Hold the grub next to a jighead that’s appropriate for the size of the lure to see where the bend of the hook begins. Insert the hook in the center of the grub’s front and thread it through until you reach where the hook should come out. Push the hook through the plastic, lining up it up with the seams left on the lure from its manufacturing process. This will ensure the lure runs true and doesn’t swim to one side or the other. To maximize the action of the tail and prevent line twist, hook the lure so that the bend of the hook and the bend of the curly tail go in opposite directions.

The weight of the jighead you use depends upon the

depth and conditions you’ll be facing. Most anglers use the least amount of weight they can while still being able to feel the lure as it glides along. The lighter the jighead, the slower the bait will need to be worked to maintain contact. For 2- to 3-inch twister tails, select weights rang-ing from 1/32-oz. for shallow water and calm days to ¼-oz. for water over 20 feet deep or windy fishing condi-tions. For most fishing situations for crappie and walleye, a 1/16- or ⅛-oz. jighead paired to a 2-inch twister tail is hard to beat. For bass and walleye, the same weight jighead impaled into a 3-inch twister tail will get the job done.

There’s no wrong way to fish a twister tail, but a few methods prove more successful than others. A simple cast-and-retrieve approach is favored by most anglers, with the angler varying the speed to match the depth and weight of the lure. Crank the handle of your reel just fast enough to keep the lure suspended above the bottom as it swims back to you. Count down from when the lure hits the surface until you see slack form in the line, indicating the lure touched the bottom, then pop it up and begin your retrieve. On the next cast, count to just before the lure hits bottom again and begin cranking slowly and steadily. An occasional pop of the rod tip may trigger a strike from a following fish.

The lift-and-drop technique can also entice a bite, es-pecially from more lethargic fish. Cast the lure and wait until it touches the bottom. Then pull up with the rod, crank the handle a few times to pick up the slack then allow the lure to glide back to the bottom. Most strikes will come as the grub slowly falls back to the bottom. Give a sharp snap of the wrist to set the hook, and enjoy the fight.

USDA Offers Additional Assistance for Certain Producers Through Coronavirus Food Assistance ProgramU.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue announced the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will provide additional assistance through the Coronavirus Food As-sistance Program (CFAP), expanding eligibility for some agricultural producers and commodities as well as up-dating payments to accurately compensate some produc-ers who already applied for the program. Producers who are now eligible and those who need to modify existing applications due to these updates can contact USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) between Jan. 19 and Feb. 26. Some of these changes are being made to align with the recently enacted Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 while others are discretionary changes being made in response to ongoing evaluation of CFAP.Expanded Eligibility for CFAP 2Contract producers of swine, broilers, laying hens, chick-en eggs and turkeys who suffered a drop in revenue in 2020 as compared to their 2019 revenue because of the pandemic now are eligible for assistance. Producers could receive up to 80% of their revenue loss, subject to the availability of funds.Producers of pullets and turfgrass sod also now are eli-gible for CFAP payments. The commodities were not

explicitly included in the initial CFAP 2 rule. Pay-ments are based on eligi-ble sales and the payment calculation in the updated rule includes crop insur-ance indemnities, Nonin-sured Crop Disaster As-sistance Program (NAP), and Wildfire and Hurricane Indemnity Program – Plus (WHIP+) payments. Newly eligible producers can submit a new CFAP 2 application or produc-ers who need to modify an existing one can do so between Jan. 19 and Feb. 26, 2021, by contacting the Nashville USDA Ser-vice Center by calling 870-845-4121. New applicants can also obtain one-on-one support with applications by calling 877-508-8364.To learn more about this additional assistance, visit farmers.gov/cfap.

Kirby, Glenwood men charged in Circuit Court

A Kirby man has been charged in Pike County for ag-gravated assault and residential burglary.

William M. Fant, 33, was charged February 12 for an incident in January. Fant was reportedly involved in a domestic dispute at his home on Highway 70 West. He allegedly forced his way into the home and assaulted a female subject, who tried to get away but was choked and drug back into the home. The incident was witnessed by a neighbor who called 911.

Also on February 12, Tyler Wayne Caldwell, 26, of Glenwood was charged in Pike County with two felonies and two misdemeanor offenses.

Caldwell, who has a criminal history and is a convicted felon, was arrested in December 2020, following an al-tercation on Seventh Street in Glenwood. He reportedly threatened to kill a subject with a gun and then left the area. Caldwell was later stopped and was found to be in possession of drug paraphernalia, a suspended license and a loaded assault-style weapon

Farmer’s Market in MurfreesboroBy Christina MyrkleVolunteer Market Manager

MURFREESBORO -- Volunteers from around Pike County are partnering with the Murfreesboro Chamber of Commerce to help local farmers and consumers with the development of a farmers’ market.

Farmers’ markets have been gaining in popularity na-tionwide in the past five years, but with the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, more consum-ers are looking for more local and fresh options when it comes to their produce selections. .

A farmers’ market would provide not only for the local consumers, but also an opportunity for local farmers, giv-ing them the opportunity to increase profits over selling to wholesalers or large grocery firms. It would also cut down in the amount of time the produce is in transport, allowing for not only fresher choices to the consumer, but reduced costs for the farmer.

Another benefit for the farmer is the variety of produce and goods that are offered at a farmers market, which can attract a more diverse group of consumers. Farmers are able to provide a selection of in-season fruits and veg-etables direct to the consumer, whether that consumer is a local resident or a visitor to the area. Honey, handmade soaps, and organic options are just a few that could be offered to those shopping the market.

Another wonderful benefit to a local farmers’ market is what it brings to the community, such as an increased awareness of attractions in the surrounding area and ac-tivities that are offered, including our local parks and camping, entertainment, festivals, as well as the foot traf-fic to local businesses and restaurants, hopefully encour-aging the consumer to come for the farmers’ market and stay for the day exploring the rest of what Murfreesboro has to offer. If you are a farmer that is seeking a place to sell your produce or handmade product, please reach out to our Volunteer Market Manager at (870) 925-3413 for further details on becoming part of the Murfreesboro Farmers’ Market.

LITTLE ROCK – Businesses would not be penalized by state regulators for violating Covid-19 restrictions be-cause of the behavior of their customers, under legisla-tion passed by the Arkansas Senate.

Senate Bill 254 provides that during the public health emergency declared by the governor, businesses would not be liable for violations if they were the result of the behavior of patrons.

Also, SB 254 provides that businesses would not be penalized by state inspectors, such as officials of the Health Department or agents of the Alcoholic Beverage Control board, as long as the violation resulted from the behavior of customers.

If an ABC agent entered a restaurant and saw a cus-tomer not wearing a face mask, the agent would have to confront the customer and not the manager of the busi-ness.

The bill only governs violations of public health orders issued due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and no other health regulations. Also, the business would still be responsible for ensuring that employees follow public health direc-tives. SB 254 passed by a vote of 32-to-1.

After a thoughtful debate, the Senate approved SB 289 to allow health care providers to refuse to perform proce-dures if they have objections based on conscience. They would not be civilly or criminally liable and could not lose their staff privileges or board certification. SB 289 passed by a vote of 27-to-6.

The Senate also passed SB 183, to prohibit a candidate from using campaign funds or carryover funds to pay fines for ethics violations. Under SB 183, using campaign funds to pay ethics fines would be considered the same as converting campaign funds to personal use. It passed by a vote of 31-to-2.

The penalty for racing on public highways would be more severe under SB 247, which the Senate passed by a 34-to-1 vote. A first offense would remain a class A misdemeanor but a second offense and any additional of-fenses would be Class D felonies.

SB 245 adds to the potential penalties for sex traffick-ing. If convicted offenders used a truck in committing the offense, they would be prohibited from holding a Com-mercial Driver’s License. That means they could not le-gally drive a heavy truck.

After the Senate passed the Senate bills, they were sent to the House and referred to the relevant committee. As-suming they are advanced by the committees, they then will be voted on by the entire House.

The Senate passed a House bill, HB 1202, which re-quires counties to publicly post sample ballots in advance of elections. The sponsor said that 55 of the 75 counties in Arkansas already do so. The Secretary of State would post the sample ballots on an Internet page that would be easy for voters to find the correct ballot for their precinct.

HB 1202 originated in the House. It has been approved by both chambers and has been sent to the governor for his signature.

The Senate Committee on Public Health, Welfare and Labor has advanced SB 6, to prohibit abortions in Arkan-sas except to save the life of the mother. It will next be considered by the entire Senate.

Last time, we looked at Isaiah 40:12-17 to get a proper perspective of ourselves in comparison to the Lord. Isa-iah 40:18-24 turns its focus almost completely on God, To whom then will you liken God? Or what likeness will you compare with Him? As for the idol, a craftsman casts it, A goldsmith plates it with gold, And a silversmith fashions chains of silver. He who is too impoverished for such an offering Selects a tree that does not rot; He seeks out for himself a skillful craftsman To prepare an idol that will not totter. (NASU)

No matter how hard the creature tries, he will not be able to fashion an idol that will adequately represent the Creator. No matter the man’s level of skill, intelligence, and diligence, he will not be able to manufacture an idol that will pay proper tribute to God. No matter how much expense the worshiper goes to he will not be able to hon-or God. Surely, the ancients were wrong in construct-ing idols of wood and stone. Just as surely, we moderns are wrong in creating idols of entertainers, material pos-sessions, family members, and self. Just like theirs, our idols rust, rot, and totter.

The passage continues in verse 21, Do you not know? Have you not heard? Has it not been declared to you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foun-dations of the earth? It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in. He it is who reduces rulers to nothing, Who makes the judges of the earth meaningless. Scarcely have they been planted, Scarcely have they been sown, Scarcely has their stock taken root in the earth, But He merely blows on them, and they wither, And the storm carries them away like stubble. (NASU)

The natural order of creation makes it plain that God is transcendent and without equal. Man cannot fully com-prehend God, His thoughts, or His plans. The vastness of the universe is a great indicator of the vastness of God. He sits enthroned above the horizon of the earth; men are tiny by comparison and in every way. Human rulers govern only by His permission. The judgments of human judges only stand if He allows. These human rulers and judges hold zero sway in God’s government. From the very beginning of an earthly reign, every ruler in every place rules at the pleasure of God. With no effort, God can remove any and all rulers, and leave no trace of them on the face of the earth.

If God has this power over the mighty men of the earth, surely, He has the same power over you and me and all the men and women of the earth. Death is the great enemy of every class of society. Death destroys all distinctions among men. Death is coming for great and small, including you and me. It behooves us to put away, rather destroy, all our idols. They are an offense to our incomprehensible, unfathomable, holy, holy, holy God. He is the Living God and desires a real relationship with the humans He created. That relationship can only be through Jesus and the Holy Spirit, not through ancient idols, nor modern versions either. Resist the great post-modern temptation to attempt to enthrone yourself and pass judgment on God. That cannot turn out well for you. The Creator came as Savior, but He will come again as Judge and Avenger. Put away your idols, before it is ev-erlastingly too late.

By Dr. Glenn Mollette Americans can expect more immigrants to enter our

country in the months and years ahead. Most Americans aren't opposed to more citizens. Many of us are not fa-vorable to undocumented foreigners roaming about our country.

I've been to Mexico and a few other countries. I've always had to show my passport and answer questions when entering another country or coming back to Ameri-ca. It only takes a few minutes.

Many years ago, my sons and I stood in a line of about a hundred people coming back to San Diego from Tijua-na, Mexico. We showed our Driver's license back then and came on back into the country. No one even asked for identification when we crossed into Mexico.

I'm happy to see documented immigrants come to America. They will come and they will work. In our area of the country we have a growing population of Hispanic farmers working our farmland. There are Hispanic res-taurants popping up in every town. Asian restaurants, nail salons and more are on the increase. The best little food joint in our community is owned by a Hispanic immi-grant and his family. They are the hardest working restau-rant people I've ever seen.

Immigrants who document and come the legal way to America are coming here for a better life. They are not coming to sit on their backsides and collect our food stamps, welfare and whatever minimal amount of income they can obtain. Most of them come to help their fami-lies, send money back home and to achieve the American dream. They don't come to be poor Americans. Many of these immigrants who are business owners often struggle and pay the price with many hours of hard work to stay open. For most of them, paying their workers $15 an hour

A grand welcome to hard working legal immigrants

will mean less hired labor and more hours of labor for the owners to try to keep their businesses open.

Steve Geis, from our town. had this to say recently about his documented grandfather coming to America. "Over 100 years ago my grandfather immigrated to the U.S. from Germany. He came here via Ellis Island where it was documented where he came from as well as the destination he was going to. He said, "We know the name of the ship he was on, and names of all of its passengers. He and the many others did what was required of them to become legal citizens. Locally, we found copies of his naturalization process. He and most other immigrants did it correctly! He added, "I would say welcome to anybody who would follow the procedure and become a fellow citizen of our great country."

America is not opposed to legal immigrants. Most of us are opposed to undocumented people crossing our bor-der illegally. We are opposed to anyone from any nation who might come with any intent to harm our country.

Let's continue to keep America a beautiful country for legal immigrants and a safe, free place for all.
