Carr explained that the

money is provided by the

federal government for

public lands such as, fed-

eral forest reserves, graz-

ing rights, mineral rights,

impact lands, lood control, and Wildlife refuge funds.

Carr stated that there has

been concern over the funds

being cut. However, she

stated that she is conident that the state will have to

provide for any lost rev-

enue resulting from federal

budget cuts in the miscel-

laneous funds provided to

schools.

Carr reported that the

school had budgeted for

approximately $500,000

in miscellaneous funds and

had received $560,000 for

a surplus of $60,000 in said

funding.

Board member Shane

Forga asked what the cur-

rent millage rate was for the

school district. Carr stated

that the current millage rate

is about average for area

districts.

their crisis plan after attend-

ing a workshop, which ws

held last summer.

She stated that staff

members attended a Crisis

planning workshop pre-

sented by Bill Bond, a crisis

specialist and conducted by

Arkansas Department of

Education administrators’

conference.

Whisenhunt indicated

that the district’s adminis-

tration felt some changes

were necessary due to re-

cent events at other schools

around the country.

The staff used informa-

tion gleaned from the work-

shop and literature gathered

by staff members to make

changes to the ire drill and tornado drill crisis charts.

A lockdown drill with an

evacuation aspect has also

been added.

She stated that they will

revise the crisis plan during

the summer break and

It was raining three-pointers at Caddo Hills in the

inals of the Senior boys 7A West District Tourna-

ment.

The game featured two local teams- the Confer-

ence Champ Caddo Hills Indians and the conference

runners-up Kirby Trojans, each entering the game

with a loss against each other.

The game opened with each team trading a turn-

over before Kirby’s Zach Deputy hit from long

range. Caddo’s Josh Duncan answered with two.

Deputy hit two more treys pulling the Trojans ahead

2-9 before Caddo called a time-out. Bradley Porter

began an eight-point Indian rally with ive points added to Tyler Moore’s irst three. With 1:45 left in the irst quarter, the Indians led 10-9. Kirby’s Logan Foshee evened the score at 10, with one free throw

on the next trip up the loor.

Under Arkansas law, persons in the state of Arkansas who own or operate Poultry Feeding Operations where 2,500 or more Poultry are housed or conined on any given day will be required to register annually with the Commission and pay a $10 fee for each operation. Fail-ure to do so will result in the following penalties:First Offense: Written notice of Non Compliance with the Arkansas Poultry Registration Act.Second Offense: You may be ined up to ifty dollars ($50).Third Offense: You may be ined up to ive hundred dollars ($500).For more information about PFO registration contact your local Conservation District or call Arkansas Natu-ral Resources Commission in Little Rock; Patrick Fisk, (501) 682-3968.

DENISE GRAVES, RD, LD

DaVita Dietitian

N a t i o n a l N u t r i t i o n Month® is a nationwide campaign championed by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, formerly the American Dietetic Associa-tion. “Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day,” is the theme for the month long campaign this year. The nutrition education campaign started forty years ago as a weeklong event and in 1980 transitioned to the entire month of March. More than 1,600 DaVita registered dietitians around the country are working to empower their communities to make healthy eating choices as their contri-bution this National Nutrition Month.

The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is the world’s largest organization of food and nutritional professionals. The Academy is committed to improving the nation’s health and advancing the profession of dietetics through research, education and advocacy.

“Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day” is centered on the individual’s lifestyle, culture, food preference, health, and taste preference. The avail-ability of quick diverse food

choices provide Americans with multiple easy dining options today. These options have allowed the traditional American mealtime to change drastically.

Mealtime structure that has evolved over the last three decades from three meals a day to eating on the go has contributed to an increase in obesity and rates of diabetes in America. Fast foods that tend to be super sized are calorically dense and provide limited nutrients. According to Centers for Disease Control (CDC) the number of new diabetes cases diagnosed has tripled over the last thirty years. Most recent data from the CDC reports that one third of the adult US population is obese.

Overweight and obese, de-ined by the CDC, are ranges of weight that are greater than what is generally considered healthy for a given height. Body Mass Index (BMI) is the equation that uses height and weight to determine over-weight and obese status. For adults, a BMI of 25-29.9 is considered overweight and 30 or greater is obesity.

Health risks associated with obesity are numerous and unpleasant. Gallstones,

type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and triglycerides, coronary artery disease, stroke, sleep apnea, and increased risk of falls are just a few of the risks associ-ated with inactive lifestyle and obesity. Most of these diseases lead to other health complications and are debili-tating to say the least.

In examining this year’s theme to promote healthy eat-ing, this Registered Dietitian would like to focus on the “Eat Right” part of the theme. Americans eat “Their Way, Every Day,” and that is one of the reasons there has been an increase in obesity and diabetes in this country.

What does it mean to “Eat Right?” Including a vari-ety of color, texture, shape, temperature and foods is the easiest method to determine if your meals are healthy. Examine your plate and if the plate is all the same color, texture or shape, more than likely you are missing essen-tial vitamins and minerals in your diet.

The easiest way to add color, texture and multiple shapes to your meals is to add fruits and vegetables. Con-suming 4 1/2 cups or more of fruits and vegetables daily is associated with reduced risk for cancer, cardiovascular disease, stroke, cataracts and age related muscular degen-eration. Not to mention that fruits and vegetables are low in calories and packed with iber.

Green vegetables are rich in vitamins and minerals and contain powerful anti-cancer compounds. Kale, collard greens, Swiss chard, spinach, cabbage, dark green leafy lettuce and broccoli are good sources of vitamins A, C and K and also provide calcium, folate and potassium.

Who doesn’t want to slow aging and decrease sun dam-age? Consuming fruits and vegetables that are red can assist in this area. So enjoy those fresh tomatoes, water-melon and red cabbage during the harvest season.

Orange food choices of-ten provide rich sources of vitamin C, potassium, beta carotene and anti-oxidants. Consuming these foods can assist in reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease and certain cancers. So enjoy carrots, pumpkin, squash, sweet potatoes, peaches and cantaloupe often.

Garlic and onions contain antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal properties and also help to maintain joint luid balance. Try caramelizing onions with little oil in a cast iron skillet to bring out the sweetness of the vegetable. This is a great way to add lavor without piling on the calories.

And don’t forget about those beautiful purple veg-gies like beets and eggplant. Fresh berries in the spring-time, and apples year round, can add this beautiful color to your plate. Purple food choices protect against heart disease by improving circu-lation and decrease risk of blood clots.

“Eat Right” is simple and easy. With a bit of thoughtful choice, it can be just as easy to snack on piece of fresh fruit or veggies, rather than typical “junk” snack foods, such as chips, cookies, candy bars. “Your Way” should be a conscious decision you make daily that impacts your health and well being over time. Take the time “Every Day” to “Eat Right” by mak-ing healthy food choices that will have a positive impact on your health for a lifetime.

WATER WELL DRILLING

“ Pagosa Springs”Southern Colorado

offers many inviting mountain towns, Du-rango, Cortez, Delores, Silverton and, my favor-ite, Pagosa Springs. At an elevation of 7000 feet halfway between Chim-ney Rock and the soaring 10,500-foot Wolf Creek Pass this community has much in common with our area.

The town is nestled in the Center of Archuleta County similar to Mt. Ida in Montgomery County. Sixty-ive percent of the county is either the San Juan National Forest or the Southern Ute Res-ervation. Seventy-two percent of Montgom-ery County is either the Ouachita National For-est or part of the Corps of Engineers Lake Ouachita Project. Pagosa Springs has a population of 1500 while Mt. Ida has just over 1000. Both towns are located on a river, the San Juan in Colorado and the South Fork of the Ouachita here.

Pagosa Springs is wrapped around the world’s deepest geo-thermal hot spring. Long before the Spanish irst visited the area the native Utes utilized the sulfur-rich waters they called “Pah Gosah” or healing waters much as the early Indian settlers of our area utilized the healing waters of Hot Springs. Also, as we are experiencing here, the area around Pagosa Springs has become a

mecca for retirees and/or folks establishing sec-ond homes.

The downtown area is set on and around the banks of the San Juan River whose rocky banks are dotted with rising steam from the many thermal vents. The “Mother Spring” feeds the many developed spring feed pools pools offering a unique op-portunities to soak away your aches and wor-ries. The pools vary in temperature from warm to parboiling with most located out in the dry mountain air over look-ing the snow feed waters of the river. It is easy to emerge yourself in one of these pools over-looking the river, close your eyes and imagine how a Native American felt over a one thousand years ago. Unfortunately our local Hot Springs were all capped except for a couple for viewing.

If you enjoy hiking, biking, loating and ish-ing these are the top summertime activities of the area. There are sev-eral public and private campgrounds and hotels nearby near a number of surprisingly good res-taurants. More impor-tantly Downtown Pago-sa Springs was the inal destination for the C.W. McCall’s famous 1975 Country & Western song “Wolf Creek Pass” about a runaway truckload of chickens careening out of control down the pass.

Approximately 50 House bills have been signed into law by the Governor as we enter the 6th week of the legislative session. Last Monday, SB71 became Act 67 and churches in Arkansas are now able to set their own security policies regarding possession licensed carry of concealed weapons. The default is that churches re-main prohibited places and any change in their status must be by action of the church’s governing body. School districts will now be permitted to set their own policy concerning the use of electronic devices for students after HB1017 was signed into law. Another bill, now Act 72, prohibits health insurance exchange policies from providing coverage for an abortion except through a separate rider.

The House passed my HB1043 on a 65-21 vote. If passed by the Senate, whistleblowers who expose waste or fraud in state gov-ernment will be eligible for a inancial reward of 10% of the savings resulting from their report.

House members have be-gun the process of address-ing the issue of scholarships funded by the state lottery. More students continue to apply for the Arkansas Academic Challenge while lottery revenue remains lat and more than 40% of recipients fail or otherwise drop out in the irst year. The House Rules commit-tee advanced a bill that would create a tiered system for the scholarships. Col-lege freshmen attending a 4 year university would receive $2,000 for the irst year, with an increase of

$1,000 every successive year capping at $5,000 for seniors. HB1295 would set the amount of the scholar-ship for students attending 2 year colleges at $2,000 each year. The bill also provides more overall funding for non-traditional students.

On Friday, the House State Agencies and Govern-mental Affairs Committee advanced my HB1187 to the House floor. The bill will ban use of public funds to inluence the outcome of a ballot measure election. The House also passed a bill to allow trained staff to carry a concealed handgun on a university or college campus and provides an opt out. That bill now makes its way the Senate.

Each session the General Assembly can put forward 3 amendments to voters. The deadline to file con-stitutional amendments was February 12. House members iled 19 proposed amendments. One of those is HJR1010 which I iled to address the process of amending the Arkansas Constitution. Proposals filed address everything from term limits to funding for roads. You can ind the proposals that were iled on our website. All constitu-tional amendments from the House begin with the letters HJR standing for House Joint Resolution.

We have voted to allow extension of our session to April 19 if necessary. We will come back on May 17th to address any possible ve-toes or uninished business and sine die adjournment. Remember you can watch most committee meetings and all House loor proceed-ings live on our website at www.arkansashouse.org.

Monday we began our week with our daily ex-ercise program and then we played bingo right up til the lunch hour. We en-joyed a delicious lunch and then we had an hour of song and praise to ill our hearts. We met up in the activity room after-wards, where we started on a new card.

Tuesday after exer-cise we met in the activ-ity area where we made homemade bread, and butter, and there wasn't any leftovers either! We had fun with Bret and members of the Prairie Grove band who enter-tained us with both gos-pel and country music, and everyone had such a great time and request a return visit!

Wednesday we had our morning exercise program, and then we played a game called heart to heart where we matche famous couples and duo's both past and present and aftrerwards we rolled up our sleves for some wii bowling! We had our weekly Bi-ble study group in the afternoon.

Thursday after ex-ercise we met up front and went to our local thrift shop where we enjoyed refreshments and were greeted by so many smiling faces! We also shopped around and found many bargains to bring home with us! We returned home in time to enjoy a special lunch that was prepared

and served up with a whole lot of love! We had a Valentine party that afternoon where we played a couple games with prizes and enjoyed refreshments.

Friday after exercise we loaded up on the van and headed to the city of Glenwood, where we went to the lea market and we enjoyed looking at the antiques and bar-gains they had. We went to the dollar stores after lunch to get a few items we needed for the week-end, and stopped off by Sun Screen video to pick up a movie for the week-end, and we returned home to be greeted by our friends the yarn-workers.

Saturday after exer-cise class, we had a little pampering with mani-cures, and nail polishing. We enjoyed snacks along with our movie, which was a western, called Bells of Coronado, star-ring Roy Rogers.

Sunday we had our Sunday school class in the morning, and then we had our devotional hour in the afternoon, and they both leave us feeling as we can face the week ahead of us with a smile!

We want to thank all our volunteers for your time and many talents, and remind you if you would like to become a volunteer, please feel free to call myself, or Sherrie Morris at 870-867-2159.

Marge Skinner is a new volunteer at the Gretta Lane Mission on Satur-days. She teaches Eng-lish as a second language to our growing Spanish population with a focus on conversational usage. Thank you Marge, and all the volunteers, for helping out folks who have come to this country to work and are trying to learn the lan-guage as well.

A bunch of years ago, I got the opportunity to travel to Merida Mexico for a week with my hus-band. My knowledge of Spanish is limited to “please”, “thank you” and “I need a beer.” Us-ing what little Spanish I thought I knew, I asked for a bucket of ice in the res-taurant and unknowingly asked for a bucket made out of ice cream instead which sent the restaurant staff in to giggles. Once they saw that I wasn’t mad and thought it was funny also, I got schooled in ba-sic Spanish by the hotel staff, most of whom spoke no more English than I spoke Spanish, but we both wanted to learn so we traded languages. It was a wonderful, eye opening and very humbling ex-perience. By the way, If you ever get to Mexico, you have got to try the chocolate ice cream. You

don’t know what you are missing until you have ice cream made with fresh chocolate.

Teddy Green of Nor-man was the lone boy in the American Legion sponsored lag essay con-test held at the Montgom-ery County Courthouse Annex. Teddy was one of several ifth grade stu-dents from Caddo Hills who read their essays.

Several members from Gretta Lane Mission vis-ited the Avilla/Zion Com-munity Garden located on Congo Road between Benton and Ferndale re-cently. The plan is to get one going here. Once again, if you have a little time, expertise or the use of equipment to donate, Gretta Lane would love to hear from you.

The Montgomery County Council for the Performing Arts will be putting on a comedy this spring. If you have a han-kering to do a little stage work or you can help out with props and produc-tion, please give them a call.

I think Warm Hearts Animal Society still has a couple of spay vouchers available.

Good to see so much activity at the local busi-nesses Saturday morning.

Congratulations to Josh Hall of Story on his many high scores and honors he has received in sports and his great 4.0 grade point average. I’m sure that his parents, James and Jackie Hall, his brother Zach, his sis-ter Lauren are very proud of him as well as Coach Michael White and girl-friend Christen Beggs.

Delora Humphrey was honored on Febraury 13 with a birthday celebra-tion. She was 91 years old. Among those attend-ed were her sister, her brother and his wife, her daughter Connie Sue and Kirk, some of her grand-children and Delora’s husband Leo. Delora is the daughter of the late Oscar and Edith Qualls who raised their family at Story and Leo is the son of the late Richard and Anna Humphrey also of Story. Everyone enjoyed the visit and the food.

Beth Smith visited the home of Aaron, Amber, Lauren and Landon Len-derman recently. Lauren and Landon are her only grandchildren.

Harrison and I en-joyed our company on Saturday which was our daughter Karen and Alan Rettman and Roger, Jana, and Camden Holcomb. Jana celebrated her 46th birthday on Saturday, February 16. Karen and I cooked a big breakfast for Jana and everyone else on Saturday morn-ing. The meal included: homemade biscuits, bacon, eggs, venison, chicken, white gravy, chocolate gravy,and one of my strawberry jello cream cheese cakes. We all sang happy birthday to Jana and enjoyed the food and great visit. Jana was Karen’s secretary for DHS when Karen and Alan lived in Waldron.

Mary Beth Gilliam of Little Rock was at Ref-uge Baptist Church on February 17. She came to visit her aunt Sue Blair. Sue’s nieces are good to come and visit and she really enjoys them com-ing.

The Children at Ref-uge Baptist Church had a wonderful time and lots of treats at the Valen-tine’s Party on Wednse-day night.

Happy Birthday to my cousin, Everett Smith Jr. who will be 82 on February 22 and Cleo Qualls who will be 90 on Febraury 22 also; Faye Qualls McKay, Hal McK-Ay, Bernice Irons, Max-ine Phillips, Helen Rob-ertson, and Irene Mabry on February 24; Laurie Whisenhunt and Rodney Standridge on February 25; Mildred Wingfield, Jamie Saveall, and Sarah Beth Phillips on Febru-ary 26; Angela Whiley on February 27; Ted Col-lum on February 28 and Scout Wilson on Febrau-ry 29. Happy Anniver-sary Charles and Mandy Scantling on February 25.

Among many on our prayer list includes: Roger Pearson, Ida Sue Mclane, Kathy Minton, Raze Rowland, Barbara Woodbeck, Stacy Kenne-dy, Rodney Standridge, Gene Keeney, Paul, Reva, and Ruby Reed, the family of Freddy Par-liament a memorial ser-vice for him will be at the Prarie Grove Church on Saturday, February 23, the family of Inez Stacy, the family of Loyd Scott. Please pray for all the unsaved, sick, bereaved, our leaders, and every-one.

Remember God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trou-ble “Psalms 46:1”.

A bit of geologi-cal info for everyone! Now, you know that whetstones are sharpen-ing stones used for knife blades and other cutting tools and you probably knew that Arkansas no-vaculite has been used for manufacturing whet-stones. Did you, howev-er, know that novaculite is not a widely available rock? This microcrystal-line sedimentary rock outcrops in the Ouachita Mountains of western Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma. In the early 1800s novaculite min-ing began around Hot Springs for the whet-stone industry. Indians dwelling in this region had always used novac-ulite for forming their sharp edged tools. Ar-cheological excavations in other areas have re-vealed tools made of no-vaculite but that is due to trading, possibly as oth-ers traveled in seasonal rotation. We’ve always

known the uniqueness of the quartz formations in the Ouachitas but it’s very interesting to learn of the signiicant depos-its of novaculite here. The AR counties of Gar-land, Hot Spring, Mont-gomery and Polk are the main sources. There are only a few other minor sources of novaculite in Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana. Some stones, with different degrees of hardness, are even marketed as Arkan-sas Stones.

If you are interested in learning more, check out http://arkarcheol-ogy.uark.edu/novaculite/index.html an Arkansas Archeology website.

Our thanks to A. L. Banta for the home forged heavy duty skid dogs he recently brought in. These are the largest we’ve seen. At one time most farmers had their own blacksmith set up. They could forge an item exactly to their needs.

In most cases, workers ap-proach local residents and offer to check and repair roofing

and driveways. Often they try to sell the work by promising savings to the homeowner through lower utility usage. They almost always ask for up-front money for materials for the job.

He cautioned residents to consider only dealing with lo-cal craftsmen that are known to them or those with a local address so they can be checked out.

Another scam that con-tinues to come up is lottery

or prize win notiications. In all cases the pitch is for the winner to prepay taxes or han-dling fees before receiving the prize or lottery proceeds. “That is a dead giveaway,” White said, “since no legitimate prize award will ask for money in advance.”

“If contacted by someone notifying of a prize or lottery win, get their information and call our ofice at (870) 867-3151 and let us check it out. I would rather check out each case rather than try to recover losses after someone has unwit-tingly been the victim of a scam artist,” Sheriff White added.

He also noted that door-to-door sales people have been showing up as in the evening trying to sell consumer prod-ucts such as vacuum cleaners. ” Again,” he noted,” most reputable sales people do not make calls that late at night unless they have a previously set appointment.”

His advice to area residents is to know who they are dealing with, and when in doubt call the sheriff’s ofice and report the contact.
