Railroad tracks formerly
known as the Maumee and
Western railway line across
the northern third of
Paulding County have gotten
a new lease on life.
Michigan Southern
Railroad Company, a sub-
sidiary of Pioneer Railcorp,
purchased the tracks last
December. They now oper-
ate the line under the busi-
ness name Napoleon,
Defiance & Western Rail -
way Company (NDW).
According to Shane
Cullen, vice president of
transportation and operations
with Pioneer Railcorp, near-
ly a quarter million dollars
were spent to open the sec-
tion of tracks between Cecil
and Defiance. The tracks
were put back into operation
Oct. 24.
This project was made
possible and completed by
public and private partner-
ship, said Cullen. Ohio
Rail Development Com mis -
sion contributed along with
NDW.
Approximately 17 miles
of tracks angle through the
northwest corner of Harrison
Township, the south half of
Carryall Township including
Antwerp, the midsection of
Crane Township including
Cecil and the northern half of
Emerald Township.
Previously only the west-
ern portion of the line was
usable; the tracks from Cecil
to Defiance were in such dis-
repair they could not be used.
This reopened section of
tracks involves seven rail-
road crossings. Two are in
Cecil, one is on US 127 in
Crane Township. The re-
maining four are at
Township Roads 115, 232,
133 and 143 in Emerald
Township.
Drivers will want to make
sure they watch for traffic at
these crossings.
Cullen said, All crossings
are and should be considered
active. Trains will initially
run on an as needed basis. I
suspect in time a routine will
emerge.
He added, Motorists
should always expect a train
and yield at railroad cross-
ings regardless of any ex-
pected train frequency.
He noted that for the first
few runs NDW will manual-
ly flag all crossings.
The major rehabilitation
project will allow all ship-
pers on the line to route traf-
fic via both CSX
Transportation to the east
and Norfolk Southern to the
west.
Mike Carr, president and
CEO of Pioneer Railcorp,
said, After purchasing this
line in December 2012, a
major priority was to rehab
several miles of previously
inoperable track between
Defiance and Cecil.
In doing so, we are now
able to offer our eastern ship-
pers NS access via Wood -
burn, Ind. and our western
shippers CSXT access via
Motorists should
watch for traffic on
reopened rail line

PAULDING Paulding
Village officials traveled to
the Bowling Green office of
the Ohio EPA last week to dis-
cuss the August-September
pH level violation imposed on
the village.
At Mondays Paulding
Village Council meeting,
members learned that village
officials had been in contact
with the wastewater lagoon
aeration manufacturer and
discovered that the lagoon
aerators were not functioning
correctly, which was a prob-
lem covered by the manufac-
turers warranty.
The manufacturer has
agreed to fix the problem and
the Ohio EPA has given the
village until March 31 to be in
compliance with the pH prob-
lem.
The engineers for the vil-
lage advised purchasing an
aerator monitoring system.
Council unanimously ap-
proved $7,500 for a monitor-
ing system to report the aera-
tors functions and provide
useful information to help
avert another problem with
pH balance.
Council President Roger
Sierer advised council that
Phase 1 of the sewer separa-
tion project is winding down.
According to Sierer, the con-
tractors hope to be completed
in the next two weeks. Sierer
stated that the contractors will
return in spring 2014 to put
the finishing touches on the
project work.
Councilman Randy Daeger
asked if there would be a
pavement inspection at that
time. Mayor Greg White said
that there would be an inspec-
tion and that it would be good
to have the winter freezing
and thawing prior to the final
pavement inspection.
The mayor commented
concerning people who are
walking their dogs in the
cemetery and along the
streets. White stated that some
people are not cleaning up the
dog droppings. White asked
citizens who walk their pets to
be more responsible and clean
up after their dogs.
Mayor White remarked that
he had met with the contractor
that will be doing the road
work on Dooley Drive and
marked the bad spots that
needed extra attention.
The recreation committee
met last week and reviewed a
tentative maintenance agree-
ment for the SAY soccer
league, made revisions and
sent the agreement to village
solicitor Mike Jones for re-
view.

pool report submitted by pool

struction projects in the Ohio
Department of Transportation
District One, which includes
Paulding County:

Zielke also mentioned a
wide range of potential oppor-
tunities along the track may be
opened with the rehabilitation
and reopening of the tracks.
He was unable to discuss what
these might be.

make any decisions concern-
ing the pool manager and

Carr continued, The Ohio
Railroad Commission was in-
strumental in the rehab
process and shares our vision
for the NDWs future.
All current shippers should
benefit immediately from this
competitive access and multi-
ple Class 1 connections are a
necessity to participate in
major industrial development
projects going forward. The
combination of industrial de-
velopment sites, local support
and four-lane highway access
puts us in position to attract
major industries that would
add jobs to a growing region.
Paulding County Economic
Development director Jerry
Zielke is enthused about the
news.
This is a fantastic opportu-
nity for us, he said. It really
is. Ive met with these guys a
couple of times. This will real-
ly open up service with
Norfolk Southern and CSX, so
customers can ship or receive
from two different sources.
That is very unique.

The Amish Cook
By: Lovina Eicher
my daughters, Susan, 17, and
Verena, 15, and I cleaned an
Amish ladys house. It was a
pretty big house. It had four
rooms and a bathroom up-
stairs and three bedrooms
downstairs.
The six of us washed all the
walls, ceilings, windows and
some furniture in the whole
house. We were tired when
we finished, but was glad to
help her out. Her health
hasnt been the best and she
recently had a hospital stay.
She fixed lunch for us, which
was delicious! We had
packed our lunch, but her hot
meal tasted a lot better than
our cold sandwiches.
My neck was sore the next
day from all the overhead
washing. The wall mops are
so much easier than when we
would have to use a steplad-
der and wash the walls and
ceiling with rags.
We are still having toma-
toes, but they are the green
ones that we picked and are
letting them ripen. The taste
isnt as good as when they are
picked red from the garden.
Applesauce is being
canned by a lot of women in
the community. I still have
plenty, so I didnt need to can
any. Although we are enjoy-
ing apples for fresh eating.
We awoke to a world full
of snow flurries. The flakes
were big and flaky, but none
of it stuck to the ground. It
was enough to get the chil-
dren excited about winter
weather, especially sledding.
My husband, Joe, started
our coal stove which helps
keep the house cozy on these
cold mornings. A few morn-
ings weve had temperatures
in the upper 20s. Leaves are
emptying off the trees fast.
What colorful scenes painted
by our Master Artist.
The sun hasnt been out too
much this week. It seems the
solar freezer is still keeping
charged enough though.
This colder weather has
made the deer move around
more. Timothy and Mose (the
girls special friends) have
both been lucky and each has
shot a deer with their com-
pound bows this month. Ben-
jamin, 14, and Joseph, 11,
take turns going with Joe
when he goes crossbow hunt-
ing for deer.
Next week the first nine
weeks of school is over.
Teacher conferences are al-
ready being scheduled.
Where has the time gone so
fast?
Last week one day, sister
Emma and her two daughters,
Such a healthy snack.
With the colder weather
winter coats are being pulled
out of the closets. Before
long, also snowpants, mittens
and scarves. It gets darker
earlier at night so our
evenings seem to come ear-
lier.
I tried this meatball recipe
this week. Everyone seemed
to like it. I thought it was easy
to make. I made spaghetti to
along with them. A blessed
autumn to all!

In The
Garden
Its the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
pumpkin would be disquali-
fied. Even having a crack
would eliminate a pumpkin
from competition. So, mov-
ing these big boys can be a te-
dious process.
This years winner was
grown by Tim and Susan
Mathison from California and
weighed in at a whopping
2,032 pounds. That set a new
world record, beating the pre-
vious one set just last year by
a grower from Rhode Island,
which weighed 2,009 pounds.
Each years winner is then
taken to the New York Botan-
ical Garden where it is on dis-
play for a few weeks.
Even if you dont want to
get into growing the worlds
largest pumpkin, growing big
ones can be fun to do. Just get
some giant seeds, Dills At-
lantic Giant are readily avail-
able, and see what happens.
One tip, pumpkins are heavy
feeders so dont forget to use
plenty of compost and fertil-
izer.
Who knows, maybe The
Great Pumpkin will rise from
your pumpkin patch next
Halloween.

isnt even about linear size.
Its all about weight.
Competitive growers work
most of the year on some as-
pect of their obsession (and
thats what it is), whether it be
in amending the soil, re-
searching seeds, or tending
early-started seedlings. There
are pumpkin clubs and they
meet regularly to discuss this
pumpkin-growing business.
But, for all the rivalry that ex-
ists among the growers, they
help each other, too. Every-
one wants to see the pump-
kins grow even larger, so
knowledge is shared.
Competitions are held in
Oct. and the weighing
process isnt easy. One of the
biggest challenges is trans-
porting the large pumpkins to
a weighing station. When a
pumpkin is that large, theres
always a danger of breaking
it open, in which case, the
Halloween is now behind
us, but Thanksgiving looms
large and so do the pumpkins.
Everywhere you look, you
see the orange orbs, on front
porches, in the groceries, and
some are still sitting in the
pumpkin patch.
But, not all are carved as
Jack-o-Lanterns. Not all will
end up on your plate in a few
weeks. (Mmm...pie!) Some
are grown just for the sheer
joy and competition of grow-
ing them. Im talking about
the quest for the largest
pumpkin ever grown.
This is serious business
among those who grow the
giants. There are seeds called
Dills Atlantic Giant, Silver
Bullet, and some are a num-
ber indicating size (in
pounds) coupled with the
name of the grower. For ex-
ample, 1725 Harp seeds are
seeds from a pumpkin that
Christy Harp of Massillon,
Ohio, grew to a record 1,725
pounds to win the competi-
tion in 2009.
Pumpkins weighing in with
numbers like 1,500 or more
pounds arent your nice,
round, vibrant orange pump-
kins. When one gets to be that
size, gravity does a number
on it and it starts looking like
a tired Sumo wrestler. But,
competitive pumpkin grow-
ing isnt about appearances. It
Court buildings to light up
with new updated bulbs
By JIM LANGHAM
Feature Writer
PAULDING Paulding County commission-
ers have authorized installation of new fixtures
and updated light bulbs in court facilities that is
expected to save county taxpayers significantly
in lighting expense after five years.
Commissioners have authorized installation in
both the courthouse and county court building.
According to Commissioner Chairman Fred
Pieper, since the project has been authorized be-
fore Dec. 15 of this year, there will be an AEP
rebate of $844 for the county court and $6,300
for the Paulding County Courthouse.
Right now we have old style fluorescent
bulbs, 4 by 8 feet, known as T-12 bulbs, said
Pieper. They are no longer being made; the gov-
ernment is phasing them out.
Our maintenance guy submitted a bulb re-
quest to a bulb supplier to purchase a bunch of
those bulbs, continued Pieper. We told him to
hold out on the order because we planned to re-
place the bulbs. With knowledge of the rebate,
we decided that rather than stock up on bulbs that
werent being made anymore, it would be better
to replace our fixtures and upgrade.
The process would include installation of new
fixtures to house the modernization of bulbs.
Pieper said that the contractor estimated that
after three years, cost of installation in the county
court would pay for itself, just in the smaller
amount of electricity being used. It was esti-
mated that the same would be true for the Pauld-
ing County Courthouse 5.2 years after
installation.
After that, the savings for the tax payers will
really be significant, said Pieper.
The cost of installing the new system into the
county court, minus rebate, is $2,827. In the
Paulding County Courthouse, cost, minus rebate,
is $31,798.
Pieper said that due to changed fixture sizes,
there would be some touch-up painting required
following installation. The commissioner noted
that following installation, officials are planning
on authorizing painting in the courthouse.
Its been 17 years since weve last done any-
thing like that, commented Pieper. We are
doing all that we can to maintain this facility and
keep up with it.

Open house to
be held for dog
kennel Nov. 9
Dear Editor,
I personally invite you to
an open house on Saturday,
Nov. 9, at the Paulding
County Sheriffs Office Dog
Kennel, located on US 127
just north of the Village of
Paulding.
Dog Warden Deputy Mark
Rassman and his assistant,
Deputy Brandon Shuherk,
have done a remarkable job
of operating the kennel since
it has been under my watch,
which was effective July 1,
2013, and I would like the
community to tour the facil-
ity.
It is amazing to me how
many folks in our commu-
nity, and surrounding com-
munities, have come
together for the best interest
of the dogs brought into the
kennel on a daily basis.
Deputy Rassman is over-
seeing a top-notch operation
at the kennel, which I have
gotten much praise from the
public. I think it is important
to turn the focus where it
should be and congratulate
him on a job well done! I
think its safe to say he
couldnt do it without the
help of Deputy Shuherk and
the volunteers that come for-
ward every day.
Please stop at the kennel
from 1-4 p.m. Nov. 9, and
say hello to Deputy Mark
Rassman. Take a tour of the
facility and maybe even take
home a new addition to your
family.

An inside view
of ALCO closing
Dear Editor,
As most, if not all, of the
area residents know, ALCO
Department Store is closing.
After three years of employ-
ment, I got to know not only
the employees (saw a lot
come and go), but I also
have had the opportunity to
meet and greet a lot of really
neat and interesting cus-
tomers.
Customers rely on per-
sonal service and being com-
fortable with the employee.
Now this is all shattered by
the announcement that, The
stores performance does not
meet our financial require-
ments. Really, really, we
were all told that the store
looked beautiful and that the
store was making money.
But not enough to suit cor-
porate, which by the way is
in Kansas. They, I mean cor-
porate, say they valued the
opportunity to be a part of
this community, but never
set foot in the store. To cor-
porate, we are store No. 285.
People have learned to
rely on the products we
carry, lawn and garden, to
clothing. But what has hurt
this store, I felt, was the fact
that it never truly met the
needs of the customer as a
whole. Examples: having
products that customers will
not purchase, not carrying
things that would sell, over-
purchase of food or lawn-

Friends of the

Dear Editor,
Friends of the Paulding

would like to acknowledge
those responsible for making
the open house silent art
auction a huge success. Our
members would like to espe-
cially thank the artists who
donated their amazing art-
work.

ciates all those who pur-
chased items.
garden items such as plants
or flowers. These products
ended up in the dumpster. I
would love to find the fig-
ures, dollar amount, that was
thrown away. That was a
corporate decision, not our
local stores. So, I say to cor-
porate, That does not meet
our financial requirement.
The article (Pauldings
ALCO to close its doors,
Progress, Oct. 23) mentions,
The Paulding store man-
ager declined to comment
and directed any questions to
corporate headquarters.
Well, yes, he does not want
to lose his job. He is a won-
derful manager to work for,
not only a hard worker, he
will not ask you to do some-
thing if he is not willing to
do it himself. A family man
who understands that every-
one has family events or
functions that require adjust-
ments in scheduling.
He, as well as the other 10
employees, deserve a lot bet-
ter than what they have been
dealt. I doubt seriously if
any employee here will
move to take a part-time po-
sition at another store for
barely over minimum wage.
That is not meeting their fi-
nancial requirements.
For [Ricardo] Clemente,
[ALCO senior VP for store
operations] to make com-
ments about this stores em-
ployees, in a tone like he
knows us, is disgusting. This
is just an example of how this
countrys corporate ladder has
been propped, the rungs of the
ladder are slippery and full of
crap.
As our closing date gets
closer, I ask you, the shopper,
please take the time and say
thank you to our employees
for their service to the com-
munity. They have always
been there to serve you, all 12
of us. Thank you.

Lets serve our
veterans as well as
they have served us
By Daniel M. Dellinger
During the recent government shutdown many numbers
were thrown around. But there is one number that stands out
and it has nothing to do with the debate over the federal
budget.
More than one a day. That is how many members of our
active-duty military, National Guard and Reserve forces have
committed suicide over the last year. Simply put, we are los-
ing more servicemembers by their own hands than we are by
the enemy in Afghanistan.
Only those who experienced firsthand the horrors of com-
bat can understand why most of these young men and
women feel compelled to take such drastic and permanent
measures.
As Veterans Day ceremonies and parades occur throughout
the country, it is important that we commit ourselves to do
everything possible to prevent these needless and tragic
deaths.
We are their friends, their family, their co-workers and
their neighbors. It is up to us to ensure that every veteran
feels that his or her service to this country is appreciated by
their fellow Americans. There are many tangible ways that
we can acknowledge their sacrifice, but the easiest is to sim-
ply say, Thank you for what you have done for our coun-
try.
If he is showing signs of unhappiness or depression, en-
courage him to seek help through the VA immediately. If she
has had difficulty obtaining the benefits that she is entitled
to, let her know that The American Legion has thousands of
trained service officers nationwide that will help her navigate
the bureaucracy free of charge.
And if that veteran has made the Supreme Sacrifice, re-
member the price that has been paid for our freedom and
offer your support to the loved ones left behind.
But Veterans Day is a time to honor not just those who
have fought for us in battle, but, in fact, all of the outstanding
men and women who served in our nations Armed Forces
since our founding more than 237 years ago.
Not all veterans have seen war, but a common bond that
they share is an oath in which they expressed their willing-
ness to die defending this nation.
Perhaps most significant in preserving our way of life are
the battles that America does not have to fight because those
who wish us harm slink away in fear of the Navy aircraft car-
rier, the Coast Guard cutter, the Air Force fighter squadron or
the Army soldier on patrol. Or they have heard the words
that recently retired General James Mattis shared with his
Marines: Be polite. Be professional. But have a plan to kill
everybody you meet.
While we should all be grateful for the remarkable ad-
vancements made in military medicine and prosthetics, the
fighting spirit and inspirational stories of our veterans are not
due to technology.
These traits come from the heart.
And many of these veterans are women, such as Army
Chief Warrant Officer Lori Hill. While piloting her helicop-
ter over Iraq in 2006, she maneuvered her chopper to draw
enemy gunfire away from another helicopter and provide
suppressive fire for troops on the ground. Despite flying a
damaged aircraft and suffering injuries, she landed the heli-
copter safely, saving her crew. For her actions, she became
the first woman to receive the Distinguished Flying Cross.
Women are major contributors to our military presence in
Afghanistan and many have given their lives in the War on
Terrorism. The American Legion recently issued a report
calling upon VA to improve its response to the unique needs
of women veterans. The VA and military health systems need
to adequately treat breast and cervical cancer as well as
trauma that resulted from domestic violence, sexual harass-
ment and assault. America is home to more than 1.2 million
women veterans and they deserve our support.
In the poem Tommy, the great writer Rudyard Kipling
lamented over the rude treatment a British soldier received at
a pub. Writing in classical old English, Kipling compared the
abuse with the more favorable treatment that Tommy re-
ceives by the public during war.
For its Tommy this, an Tommy that, an Chuck him out, the
brute!
But its Savior of is country when the guns begin to shoot;
An its Tommy this, an Tommy that, an anything you please;
An Tommy aint a bloomin fool you bet that Tommy sees!
Let us always treat our 23 million veterans as the saviors
of our country that they are. Even when the guns are no
longer shooting.
Daniel M. Dellinger is national commander of the 2.4 mil-
lion-member American Legion.

Rep. Burkley announces House passage
of his bill addressing wildlife, motorists
COLUMBUS State Rep-
resentative Tony Burkley (R-
Payne) announced Oct. 30 that
House Bill 199 had passed out
of the Ohio House.
The bill allows drivers who
have hit and killed a wild
turkey, wild boar or feral hog to
take and keep the animal.
Much like the procedure of
taking possession of deer, once
the animal is struck and killed
by the motor vehicle, the driver
has 24 hours to report the acci-
dent to a wildlife officer or
other law enforcement. The of-
ficer will then investigate and
issue a certificate for legal
ownership.
House Bill 199 also adds
feral hogs to the game list,
placing them under the same
definition as animals like cot-
tontail rabbits, white-tailed
deer, wild boar, black bears and
several types of squirrel.
As a legislator with a heav-
ily rural population, we feel the
need to extend this to include
these further species. There are
constituents throughout Ohio,
who once they unfortunately
kill a deer on our roads, they
can take possession and prop-
erly process the animal for con-
sumption, said Burkley, who
jointly sponsored the legisla-
tion with Rep. Bob Hackett (R-
London).
HB 199 will now be sent to
the Ohio Senate for further
consideration.

A Penny For
Your Thoughts....
By: Nancy Whitaker
WELL SEASONED
As the seasons pass, I see
beauty and joy in all of them.
Each season brings some-
thing to admire and look for-
ward to. There is the heat of
the summer, the glorious col-
ors of fall, new fallen snow in
winter and a rebirth of life in
spring.
One of my favorite times of
year is fall. It is now in full
swing with color adorning the
leaves on the trees, farmers in
the fields harvesting crops
and orange pumpkins on the
vines. Red juicy apples are in
the markets along with apple
cider and sweet cinnamon
sticks.
The other night we were on
our way home and it was
dark. However, we could see
farmers in the field with their
tractor lights on, busily gath-
ering in their harvest. Just
seeing those farmers in the
fields late at night, made me
feel blessed, secure and
happy to know that these ef-
forts of the farmers help feed
America.
With winter approaching
and possibly some cold, bleak
weather ahead, just think of
how warm and comforting it
is to see the snow flakes fall
and curl up with some warm
hot chocolate and a good
book. I love these kind of
days.
By the time winter is over,
we all get what is known as
spring fever. After the in-
door comforts of winter and
keeping warm during cold
weather, it is hard to wait to
get outside and plant gardens,
see that first robin and expe-
rience the first signs of new
growth and rebirth.
Oh, the glory of summer.
We get to take a vacation,
spend days at the beach, grill
hamburgers outside and the
kids are home for their sum-
mer break.
When summer begins to
end, we see kids thinking of
school supplies, school
clothes and books. They are
excited to return to school
and see who their teacher is
going to be.
Then back around in that
full circle comes fall. We are
fortunate to live and experi-
ence having all four seasons.
I cant blame the people
who take off to Florida for
those cold winter months, but
personally, I like all kinds of
weather and each season it
represents. I guess I like liv-
ing, working and playing in
the Buckeye State.
A quote by Henry Beston
sums up the fall season, The
leaves fall, the wind blows,
and the farm country slowly
changes from the summer cot-
tons into its winter woods. We
are getting ready for those
winter woods.
What is your favorite season
of the year? Do you like all
four seasons? If you could skip
one which one would it be? Let
me know and Ill give you a
Penny for Your Thoughts.
Farmers beware Palmer amaranth
By Mark Holtsberry
Education specialist
Paulding SWCD
A fast growing super weed that has de-
stroyed soybean and cotton fields in southern
states is popping up in Ohio alarming re-
searchers and agriculture groups who fear its
spread. Its called Palmer amaranth and
commonly used herbicides have no effect on
this weed.
Infestations in Scioto County last year and
in Fayette County this year have researchers
in Indiana and Tennessee concerned as well as
the Ohio Soybean Council. More than 3,000
soybean farmers and agriculture firms have
been sent letters and DVDs to warn them of
this invasive weed. It is very impossible to es-
timate the effect it could have on Ohio agri-
culture. OSU Extension Agent Mark Loux is
asking farmers to send samples of suspect
weeds to his office.
Roundup and other glyphosate herbicides
used to kill any plant, including Palmer ama-
ranth. But, somewhere along the line, Palmer
amaranth developed its own resistance to
Roundup and developed into a super weed that
Roundup cant touch. The result is farm fields
where nothing but corn, cotton or soybeans
grow, along with Palmer amaranth.
With a growth rate as much as three inches
per day, the weed steals nutrients and shades
out shorter crops. It competes well with corn,
too.
New plants sprout from April through Au-
gust. This can double or triple herbicide costs
because farmers must keep spraying new
plants. A field infested can lose 80 percent of
corn plants. In southern states, some farmers
have lost entire fields, even plowing them
under in attempts to kill the weed.
Known ways of how this is spreading in-
clude harvesting equipment the seed is
mixed in with soybeans or corn and shipped
into other states. Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky,
Illinois and Pennsylvania now have confirmed
cases.
In many cases, the seed, which is very tiny,
gets shipped across state lines, gets mixed in
with the other grains which are used for cattle
feed. Then the cattle passes the seed through
their digestive tracts, then manure is spread on
fields for fertilization.
In other cases, Palmer amaranth seeds make
their way into prairie grass seed mixes that
Ohio farmers planted in conservation areas
and buffer strips meant to separate crops from
streams and ditches.
Samples and reports have come from fields
in Clark, Clinton, Mercer, Van Wert, Union
and Tuscarawas counties. These findings were
isolated and the weeds had yet to produce
seeds. Ohio has yet to see the bigger infesta-
tions reported in northwestern Indiana and
southeastern Michigan. For the farmer, more
challenges to provide a quality product, but
they always endure.

Cold weather increases
danger of carbon monoxide
COLUMBUSThe Ohio
Department of Health (ODH)
and the state fire marshal is
reminding Ohioans to be cau-
tious when heating their
homes during the coming
cold weather season.
The warning comes fol-
lowing reports of a statewide
increase in emergency depart-
ment visits and calls to poison
control centers by Ohioans
over the past 10 days for car-
bon monoxide exposure.
The spike in carbon
monoxide exposure is an in-
dication that colder tempera-
tures are beginning to take
hold, said ODH Director
Ted Wymyslo, M.D.
Ohioans need to know the
warning signs of CO poison-
ing and should seek immedi-
ate medical attention if they
suspect CO contact.
According to surveillance
experts at the state health de-
partment, the upward trend
for this time of the season is
higher than usual compared
to previous years. While there
is no single reason identified
for the rise in CO exposure,
firing up the furnace for the
first time in colder weather, as
well as the increased use of
generators and portable heat-
ing devices, are among the
top causes of CO poisoning.
Carbon monoxide is a col-
orless, odorless gas that can
kill without warning, said
State Fire Marshal Larry
Flowers. As the weather be-
gins to turn colder, the risks
associated with heating your
home increases the likelihood
of such an accident. We im-
plore everyone to have their
furnaces inspected annually
and to use all generators and
portable heaters in accor-
dance with the manufac-
turers specifications.
While hundreds of people
die in the U.S. each year from
accidental CO poisoning, this
tragedy can be prevented. If
you dont have a battery-
powered or battery back-up
CO detector in your home, in-
stall one as soon as possible
and check it every six
months. You should also fol-
low these safety tips:
Do not run your car inside
a garage that is attached to
your home, even if the garage
door is open to the outside;
Have your heating sys-
tem, water heater and other
gas, oil or coal burning appli-
ances serviced by a qualified
technician each year; and
Never heat your house
with a gas oven.
Since you cant see or
smell carbon monoxide, it is
important to recognize the
most common symptoms of
CO poisoning. The most
common symptoms of CO
poisoning are headache,
dizziness, weakness, nausea,
vomiting, chest pain, and
confusion. High levels of CO
inhalation can cause loss of
consciousness and death. If
you think you are experienc-
ing CO poisoning, you
should get fresh air and seek
medical attention immedi-
ately!

Ohioans dispose of more
than 11 tons of pills
COLUMBUS Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine joined
the Drug Enforcement Administration to thank members of the
public who disposed of their unneeded and unwanted prescription
drugs during National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day on Oct.
26.
Ohio residents discarded a total of 11.8 tons (23,678 pounds)
of pills at 238 drop off sites in the state.
The unused medications in our homes create a public heath
and safety concern because they are highly susceptible to acci-
dental ingestion, diversion, misuse and abuse, said DEA Colum-
bus Group Supervisor Mark McHugh.
National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day aims to provide a
safe, convenient and responsible means of disposing of prescrip-
tion drugs, while also educating the general public about the po-
tential for abuse of medications.
Those who are still in possession of unneeded prescription
drugs can drop them off at one of several prescription drug drop
box locations across the state. Among them is the Paulding County
Sheriffs Office in Paulding.
QUESTION: How do I
handle conflicts with my ex-
husband over parenting
styles? Im a firm believer
in structure and discipline.
But that goes out the win-
dow every time the kids
spend a weekend with my
ex, who cares nothing for
rules or guidelines. What
can I do about this?
JIM: Conflicts of this kind
are usually the result of non-
existent communication. You
may be divorced, but if you
care about your kids, you owe
it to them to be on the same
page.
How do you find common
ground? Try to be as positive
and friendly as possible and
resist the temptation to criti-
cize or blame. Dont put your
ex-husband down in front of
the children. Begin by affirm-
ing the good things hes doing
with the kids. From there you
can move on to questions
like, How do you think we
can do a better job? What do
our kids need most from both
of us at this point? What are
we doing right and what
needs to change?
If you handle it right, a
conversation like this can
bring out areas of mutual
agreement between you and
your ex. It will reveal those
rules, standards and values
that you share in common
and that can be made to apply
in both homes. By building
on this foundation, you can
begin to make real progress
toward a genuine meeting of
the minds.
And while it might seem
counterintuitive, you might
consider seeing a counselor
with your ex-husband. An ob-
jective third party can steer
you away from anger, accusa-
tion and other negative forms
of communication. Later on,
you can ask the counselor to
sit down with you and your
kids to talk about relation-
ships, assumptions and ex-
pectations.
QUESTION: Sometimes
my wife and I talk about
sensitive issues while out on
a date. We seem to be so
busy that the only time we
can discuss our problems or
concerns is when were
alone. Is this a good idea?
DR. GREG SMALLEY,
vice president, Family Min-
istries: First of all, I want to
commend you and your wife
for going out on dates in the
first place. For many married
couples, dating falls by the
wayside once children, ca-
reers and other responsibili-
ties enter the picture. Their
relationships can suffer as a
result.
For this reason, Id encour-
age you to do whatever it
takes to protect your dates
from conflict and overly se-
rious discussion. Conflict
can be destructive to your
recreation, because it intensi-
fies emotions. As this hap-
pens, it becomes difficult to
relax and enjoy each other.
The conflict becomes like a
red shirt in a load of white
laundry, it tends to color the
entire experience. If this pat-
tern occurs too often, your
mate may lose the desire to
do fun things because your
dates end up turning pink.
This isnt about avoidance,
of course. You do need to set
aside time to discuss the seri-
ous issues; just dont call it a
date night. It might require
staying up a little later after
the kids are in bed, or even
getting up early once in a
while. Schedule the conversa-
tion when you can provide
the necessary attention it de-
serves.
Its worth noting that I
havent always taken my own
By Jim Daly
advice on this issue. I remem-
ber scheduling a day at Dis-
neyland with my wife, Erin,
but before we even reached
the park, I brought up a sen-
sitive issue in the car that re-
sulted in arguing and tears.
Needless to say, our date was
ruined. You can read all the
gory details in our book,
Take the Date Night Chal-
lenge. Its full of conflict-
free dating ideas for couples
in your shoes!

Winning the Battle for a Generation

By Rick Jones
exec. director, Defiance
Area Youth for Christ
How can you turn your weaknesses into
strength?
As we approach the season of Thanksgiving we
would do well to ponder the spiritual lessons
learned from Americas founders, the Pilgrims.
How did they turn their weaknesses into strength?
Wheaton College Professor Robert Tracy
McKenzie explores the heroism and weaknesses
of the first American Pilgrims.
There is much to admire about the company
of plain Englishmen who disembarked from the
Mayflower almost four centuries ago. They were
men and women who exhibited enormous
courage in the face of unspeakable hardship and
loss.
They loved their children, they loved the body
of Christ and they abandoned everything that was
familiar to them to serve both. They have given
us an invaluable Christian example of belief, ac-
tion and endurance.
But human frailty is part of the Pilgrims story
as well. They argued among themselves. They
were frequently duped both by strangers and pur-
ported friends. They were ethnocentric and some-
times self-righteous. They struggled with their
finances. They were frightened by wolves. They
got lost in the woods. A key leader got caught by
an Indian deer trap and dangled helplessly upside
down.
In years to come, they would have a hard time
keeping a pastor and many of their number would
move away in search of larger farms, prompting
William Bradford to speak of the Plymouth
church as an ancient mother grown old and for-
saken of her children.
Their flaws may shock us, but it wouldnt have
shocked the Pilgrims. They seemed to glory in
how God could use them despite their weakness
and sinfulness. One of their key leaders, Robert
Cushman, said, Our voyage hath been as full of
crosses as ourselves have been of crookedness,
but God can do much. Another leader Edward
Winslow said, How few, weak, and raw were we
at our first beginning, and yet God preserved us.
William Bradford gloried in their weaknesses,
but his object in doing so is clear: that their chil-
dren may see with what difficulties their fathers
wrestled in going through these things in their first
beginnings; and how God brought them along,
notwithstanding all their weaknesses and infirmi-
ties.
Reflecting on our weaknesses the Apostle Paul
writes. 2 Corinthians 12:10 (KJV), Therefore
I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in ne-
cessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christs
sake, for when I am weak, then am I strong.

Defense lifts WT to ninth win
By KEVIN
WANNEMACHER
Sportswriter
HAVILAND Daron Showalter and
Colby Speice each returned interceptions
for touchdowns to lead the Wayne Trace
Raiders to a 26-6 win over Fairview in
the regular season finale at Raider Field
Friday night.
With the win, the red, white and blue
move to 9-1 overall and wraps up Green
Meadows Conference action at 6-1.
Wayne Trace will visit North Robinson
Colonel Crawford on Friday in the first
round of the Division VI, Region 20
playoffs. (See related story.)
The Raiders scored on their opening
possession, putting together a 14-play,
78-yard drive. Speice culminated the
drive with a six-yard scoot for a score to
put Wayne Trace in front 6-0 with 5:21
left in the stanza.
Fairview tied the contest early in the
second stanza. The black and gold got a
16-yard touchdown run by quarterback
Andy Robinson to knot the score at 6-6
with 11:38 left in the first half.
Wayne Trace marched to the Fairview
five-yard line on its ensuing possession
but the drive ended on a fourth down
run.
Showalter, though, then came up with
the big interception on the next Apache
drive.
The junior defensive back picked off
the pass by Robinson and returned it 34-
yards to give Wayne Trace a 14-6 lead at
the 4:11 mark of the second quarter.
Daron made a big play for us there,
commented Raider head coach Bill
Speller. We had come out and gotten a
quick score but we kind of lost our edge
and just didnt finish drives. That gave
us a lift going into the locker room.
Wayne Traces defense again stepped up
early in the third quarter.
Speice picked off Robinsons second-
down pass and took it back 26-yards for
another Raider touchdown to push the ad-
vantage to 20-6 at the 7:37 mark.
Our defense played pretty well for the
most part tonight, added Speller. Colby
came up with a key pick there in the third
quarter that gave us a little bit of a lift.
The Raiders dominated the third quarter,
limiting Fairview to negative 14 yards of
offense in the stanza while totaling 136
yards in offense.
Wayne Traces final score came on an
11-yard touchdown pass from Speice to
Korbin Showalter with 1:54 left in the pe-
riod, setting the final margin of 26-6.
Offensively, we were able to move the
ball between the 20s but once we got into
the red zone, we didnt do a good job from
there, noted the Raider mentor. That is
something we have to do a better job of.
After wrapping up the regular season,
Speller knows Wayne Trace must be better
starting next week.
We have to get better, concluded
Speller. We have things to work on and
we will get back to work next week. We
just have to be ready to play 48 minutes of
good football next Friday night.

The Colonel Crawford Ea-
gles, like Wayne Trace, fin-
ished the year with a 9-1 (6-1
NCC) record while currently
riding a six-game winning
streak to close the regular
season. They also claimed a
share of the North Central
Conference championship
with Galion (9-1, 6-1 NCC).
It is the first team at Colonel
Crawford to post nine wins in
a season in 26 years.
Colonel Crawford, under
the direction of sixth year
head coach Ryan Teglovic, is
in the postseason for the sec-
ond straight season. The Ea-
gles were 8-2 last season in
the regular season before
falling to Trimble, 41-6, in
the first round of the playoffs.
Teglovic is 35-26 as a head
coach at Colonel Crawford,
posting five consecutive non-
losing seasons after a 2-8
record in his opening cam-
paign.
Teglovic also serves as the
defensive coordinator for the
Eagles, which gave up 17.1
points per game this year.
Colonel Crawford has three
victories against teams from
Division IV or V, with their
lone loss being at Division IV
Galion where they fell 35-14
in week four.
The Eagles went 3-1
against teams with winning
records, posting victories
over Upper Sandusky (28-
27), Bucyrus Wynford (20-
14) and New London (33-26).
Other wins were over Mount
Gilead (30-13), Northmor
(52-13), Buckeye Central
(38-13), Bucyrus (20-10),
Riverdale (59-14) and Crest-
line (58-6).
Colonel Crawford is 5-0 at
home this season, averaging
35.8 points per game while
allowing 14.4 points a night.
Ty Stevenson is in his sixth
season as the Eagles offen-
sive coordinator, helping
Colonel Crawford to put up
over 35 points per game.
Former Eagle head coach
Mike Cauley, who led the Ea-
gles for 16 seasons, is the de-
fensive tackle coach and in
his 36th season as a football
coach overall. The offensive
line coaches are Scott Armose
(14th season) and Steve Rit-
tenour (tenth season) with
Brett DeGray, a 1994 gradu-
ate of Colonel Crawford, han-
dling the special teams.
Preston Foy is in his fifth sea-
son as the wide receivers
coach.
Senior Nate Klingenberger
is 105 of 176 through the air
on the season for 1,577 yards
with 14 touchdowns and five
interceptions on the season.
Senior Nick Adams leads the
Eagles with 37 receptions for
523 yards and seven scores.
Defensively, senior line-
backer Ashton Van Meter
leads Colonel Crawford with
over 100 tackles on the sea-
son while junior linebacker
Kameron Landin has posted
over 90 stops on the season.
Sophomore Owen Adams
tops the Eagles with four in-
terceptions on the year.

Pilots fly past Antwerp
in season finale, 62-6
By JOE SHOUSE
Sportswriter
ANTWERP The football season for the
Antwerp Archers came to close Friday night when
the visiting Ayersville Pilots blitzed the blue and
white, 62-6.
The win gave the Pilots a 4-3 season in the
GMC and 7-3 overall while the Archers finish the
2013 campaign at 1-9 overall and 0-7 in league
action.
It was the second week in a row the Archers
gave up more than 60 points. Prior to the Ay-
ersville loss, the Archers allowed 64 points to
Wayne Trace.
It was all Ayersville in the opening 12 minutes,
thanks to the scoring machine of senior quarter-
back D.J. Hagerman, who found the end zone
twice on the ground and twice through the air.
Hagerman ran it in on an 11-yard scamper fol-
lowed by a 23-yard run in the first six minutes of
play.
The Pilot signal caller then matched his two
rushing TDs with a 34-yard connection to fresh-
man Dauson Dales and a 40-yard strike to Luke
Reed, who made the one-handed stab over the
middle and outran the Antwerp defense to widen
the Ayersville margin 27-0 after one period.
You have to give credit to Ayersville. They
came ready to play and were the aggressive team
in the first half, said head coach Drew Altimus.
In the second stanza Hagerman delivered his
third touchdown connection when he teamed up
with Luke Reed for his second TD pass comple-
tion this time a 13-yard strike. Hagerman fin-
ished the night with 84 rushing yards on seven
carries and 146 yards through the air on 7-of-9.
Following a two play Antwerp series resulting
in a lost fumble, the Pilots answered when Austin
Zachrich punched it in from two yards out to put
the Pilots in control, 41-0, with 4:20 remaining in
the second quarter. Ayersville scored its final
touchdown when Zach Clark took it in from three
yards out with 1:03 remaining. The Pilots man-
aged to score on all seven of their possessions of
the first half to led 48-0.
The third period opened with the Pilots needing
just three plays to cover 50 yards. Trey Bauman
crossed the goal line at the 10:28 mark on a one-
yard burst to increase the visitors lead 55-0.
Midway through the third period, Ayersville
head coach Chris Dales began using his second
string and on their next possession was unable to
gain any yardage on three plays and forcing their
first punt of the contest.
Avoiding a shutout, the Archers put together a
10-play drive covering 61 yards and with 9:30 re-
maining Justice Clark took the pitch out from
quarterback Bevin Hall and scampered four yards
to put the Archers on the scoreboard.
Antwerp finished the contest with 94 rushing
yards led by the 66 yards on 24 totes by senior
Tyler Messman. In the passing department, Bevin
Hall collected 53 yards on 5-of-10 and one inter-
ception.
The final Ayersville score came at the 2:29
mark on a five-yard carry by freshman Jaylon
Martinez. The successful extra point made the
final score 62-6.
The Pilots totaled 275 rushing yards on the
evening with 10 different players having the op-
portunity to run the ball.
We took a step back tonight which is disap-
pointing. Up to this point we were making
progress. In the off-season, we have our work cut
out for us. We will need to regroup and work hard
to get this turned around, said Altimus.

volleyball players her age.
You see, her older sister
Alison was a standout vol-
leyball player at Wayne
Trace and Madison wanted
to be just like her.
I grew up watching my
sister play. I admired her
so much and looking up to
her I wanted to be like
her, said Madison.
Even before those early
days on the volleyball
court as a seventh grader,
Madison was familiar with
the game. She had watched
her sister play for so long
that when she started play-
ing she knew the tech-
niques and how it all
worked together. She ad-
mits her confidence level
was pretty high going into
it at the very beginning
when she was a middle
school player.
Today, the very begin-
ning is no longer. She just
completed her senior sea-
son as a Lady Raider.
Playing the setter posi-
tion, Madison recalls play-
ing junior varsity
volleyball as a freshman
and then moving up to var-
sity her sophomore year.
As a junior and again as
a senior she shared the set-
ter position with Libby
Stabler. It was all good
and this past season was
one of our better seasons,
she said. We won the
county tri-match and de-
feated Kalida in the tour-
nament.
The Lady Raiders fin-
ished 4-3 in GMC play and
15-9 overall. Madison col-
lected a couple of team
records this year including
the game record for num-
ber of aces, career serving
percentage while tying the
season serve percentage.
At seasons end, Madi-
son received team MVP
honors, GMC Honorable
Mention and All-County
First Team, along with
GMC and District 7
scholar athlete recognition.
Being named as a scholar
athlete is a result of hard
work in the classroom.
McClure carries a 4.0 GPA
and is one of several sen-
iors sitting at the top of
their class with each sup-
porting a 4.0.
I certainly am not a
brainy kid. I have to work
hard for my grades. Play-
ing sports and being a
good student requires that
I manage my time well and
its hard sometimes, she
said.
With volleyball com-
pleted Madison will soon
be concentrating on the
softball season next spring.
McClure, who bats and
throws right handed, will
be playing her
fourth season
at the varsity
level.
I really
enjoy playing. I
like playing for
Coach (Jack)
Baumle who
also teaches
math and is my
f a v o r i t e
teacher, Mc-
Clure said.
Living on a
farm with her
parents, Terry
and Lisa Mc-
Clure, Madison
has appreciated
the opportuni-
ties her parents
have afforded
her over the
years.
They have
been a huge influence in
my life and have been sup-
portive in all my deci-
sions, she said.
In the fall season farm
life gets a little hectic and
busy for Terry and some-
times its hard for him to
get away according to
Madison. My dad seems
to always find the time to
get away and attend my
games, she said.
When asked how her
parents react when attend-
ing her
games she
c o m -
m e n t e d
with a
laugh how
they have
b e e n
through it
all before
with Ali-
son and so
they dont
get so
w o r k e d
up. Now,
its just
about sup-
porting the
team.
In addi-
tion to
mom and
dad, Madi-
sons older
s i b l i n g s
try to attend many of her
sporting events, Alison
who is married with a
young son and older
brother Ryan, who is also
part of the family farming
business, has a family that
includes three children and
they support Madison as
frequently as possible.
As a 4-H member since
the third grade it was evi-
dent in the interview how
she has used her leadership
skills to her advantage.
After hearing the many
questions given to her she
always paused for a mo-
ment, collected her
thoughts, and proceeded
with clarity in giving ma-
ture answers. There was
never any slang words
used but always yes or
no and thank you and
never did she interrupt.
Her solid family founda-
tion, the 4-H up bringing,
and her participation in
sports will certainly enable
her to be a successful col-
lege student once she
leaves Wayne Trace.
Playing sports has
taught me a lot. Ive
learned team work, leader-
ship skills and even how to
step out and make myself
available to helping oth-
ers, said Madison.
Upon completing her
four years at Wayne Trace,
Madison will attend The
Ohio State University in
Columbus where she plans
to major in business.
I want to go to a large
university and step out and
use what I have learned to
be a communicator and a
leader.
Playing sports and
being a part of 4-H those
many years has taught me
so much about confidence
and I hope to use those
skills while away at col-
lege, she said.
Madison plans to stay
active while on the Colum-
bus campus and plans to
play intramural volleyball.
Looking back at her four
years as a Lady Raider
Madison says she will miss
the people and her friends.
Attending here has been a
great experience. Its a
small school where every-
body knows each other.
We are all like family, she
said.
When asked what advice
she would give to a young
seventh grade student ath-
lete, Madison proved her
leadership qualities by
adding, I would tell them to
believe in themselves and to
have confidence. That no
one can stop them and they
will be successful.
And with that kind of ad-
vice given, I believe Madi-
son will not be stopped and
she to will continue to ex-
perience success as she
moves on to the next chap-
ter in her life.

ZACH BUCHMAN
Panthers finish season with loss at state-bound Crestview
By JIM LANGHAM
Sportswriter
CONVOY Paulding took on
more than another football team
at state-bound Crestview on Fri-
day night. The Panthers were
forced to face the powerful
Knights without the services of
senior quarterback Julian Sali-
nas, who continues to recover
from an injury the previous
week.
Salinas did manage to play
some defense, but his arm was
still not quite ready for the quar-
terback slot. Paulding head
coach Kyle Coleman said that
Salinas is well on the mend and
there will be no lasting effects
from his injury. He is expected to
continue his outstanding sports
career at the local high school.
Coleman praised backup quar-
terback Zach Buchman, who
stepped up and worked dili-
gently, in spite of the teams 41-
7 loss to the Knights.
This was a tough role for him
to step into, commented Cole-
man. He hadnt played quarter-
back, but we felt it was best at
this point rather than our other
backup quarterback, who is a
freshman.
Crestview quickly built an in-
surmountable lead in a game in
which they captured a part of the
Northwest Conference title and
secured playoff berth in Division
VI competition.
Pauldings lone score came
late in the game after Crestview
fumbled on its own 12-yard line.
Corbin Edwards then took the
handoff from Buchman and car-
ried the ball into the end zone for
the tally. Buchman followed up
with the extra point.
Coleman especially praised his
senior class for their leadership
and dedication, not only to the
game cause, but in helping set a
precedent with underclassmen
who will continue on in the pro-
gram.
They (senior class) were very
helpful to me as a first-year
coach, said Coleman. They
worked their tails off all season.
Its not just the example that
they set on the field. Most of
them are guys with a GPA of at
least 3.0, continued Coleman.
They are going to be quality in-
dividuals in society. High school
football is a great learning tool,
especially when guys come out
of the program and are success-
ful wherever they go.
Coleman said that he feels the
program has taken a step up, not
only athletically, but in attitude
and mental approach, thanks to
his seniors and coaching staff.
We are not satisfied with
where we are now, but we hope
to build, continued Coleman.
The senior class helped us
break the string. We are still in
the learning process.

Sylvia Young named
as Player of the Year
HAVILAND Wayne
Trace senior Sylvia Young
was a unanimous choice as
Paulding Countys Volleyball
Player of the Year by the
Paulding County Progress in
voting recently by coaches
and media members.
Young led the Lady
Raiders with 215 kills on the
season while also pacing the
red, white and blue in aces
(36) and blocks (39). The 6-
3 senior chipped in 31 digs as
well for Wayne Trace.
Sylvia worked very hard
to improve her game this
year, commented Lady
Raider head coach Angie
Speice. She has put in a lot
of time and has striven to
make herself a better over-
all player. She became
much more of a force for us
in the middle this year and
was a much improved all-
around player.
Joining Young on the
Paulding County First Team
are teammates Brenda
Feasby, Madison McClure
and Lauren Speice along
with Antwerps Emily
Hamman and Pauldings
Jaycie Varner.
Brenda Feasby topped
the Lady Raiders with 278
digs on the season and
added 30 aces and 90 kills
for the red, white and blue.
The senior also had nine
blocks and two assists.
Madison McClure paced
Wayne Trace with 282 as-
sists while chipping in 20
aces and 125 digs.
Lauren Speice was sec-
ond on the Raiders in kills
with 111. The senior hitter
also posted 10 aces on the
year and 81 digs while
recording 20 blocks.
Emily Hamman topped
the blue and white with 180
kills and chipped in 38
blocks on the season. The
Lady Archer junior also
chipped in a dozen aces for
Antwerp.
Jaycie Varner posted 96
kills for Paulding and added
158 digs for the Lady Pan-
thers. Varner also chipped
in 13 aces and seven blocks
for the maroon and white.
Garnering Honorable
Mention were Wayne
Traces Addison Baumle
and Gina Sinn along with
the Antwerp duo of Avery
Braaten and Kiana Recker.
Pauldings Sierra McCul-
lough and Morgan Riley
also received Honorable
Mention.
Addison Baumle posted
15 aces and 77 kills for the
Lady Raiders while the jun-
ior also chipped in 75 digs.
Gina Sinn was second on
the red, white and blue ros-
ter with 272 digs for the
season as a defensive spe-
cialist.
Avery Braaten posted
143 digs for Antwerp while
chipping in 10 kills and a
dozen aces.
Kiana Recker recorded
89 kills and 21 aces to help
the Lady Archer cause and
added 214 digs over the
season.
The Panthers Morgan
Riley totaled 312 digs on
the season while also chip-
ping in 11 kills.
Sierra McCullough had
90 kills and 48 blocks on
the season for Paulding.
She added 92 digs, 67 as-
sists and 29 aces for the ma-
roon and white.
Sylvia has put in a lot of time to make herself a better overall player. She became much more of a force for us in the
middle this year and was a much improved all-around player.

The literal world of a child
On another occasion, we had a
rubber ball that we kept throw-
ing against our house (we
hosted that particular Sunday
outing). Of course, we didnt
realize that on the inside, the
visiting adults only heard,
bonk, each time the ball hit
the side of the house. Obvi-
ously, it was more like torture
treatment.
Finally, my dad came out
and said, You have to play
somewhere else; that ball is
driving us crazy in there. Go
throw it off the side of the barn;
that doesnt bother us any. I
dont care if you tear the barn
down.
Of course, why hadnt we
thought of that? It would be
much more fun to tear down a
barn than to play ball, after all,
my dad had said specifically, I
down.
Quickly, we sat laid down
the ball and started ripping off
the boards from the old barn
that was so fragile that its a
wonder we didnt pull the en-
tire barn down. Other fellows
that joined in said to me, Are
you sure this is okay? I said,
You heard what he said, I
down.
When I was a child, my
parents were close friends
with several families. About
once a month, they would all
gather at one of the homes for
a Sunday afternoon meal and
time of games and fellowship
following church.
Since there were several
boys about the same age out
of that mix, it would be fairly
accurate to assume that the
fellows would sometimes get
into a little mischief, not ex-
actly like Mark Twains Tom
Sawyer, but not exactly un-
like him either.
I can remember one Sun-
day afternoon that we all ar-
rived at the same time. While
the parents were finishing
lunch, several of the boys
began playing, knockout
flies. One of the guys, Brice,
was often one of the first to get
into trouble, whether he was
actually misbehaving or not.
On this particular Sunday,
Brice hit a long, towering fly
ball that ended up in the middle
of a rain water channel. The
host laughed, but also realized
that there was a problem that
immediately needed to be
solved.
To top things off, there was
more to come. On the next
swing, Brice hit another tower-
ing fly ball that, this time,
ended up knocking out a win-
dow in the upper part of the
barn.
That was the end of the
knockout flies game in that
particular location.
But it wasnt the end of our
tremendous passion for playing
ball, or making sure that we to-
tally understood and were to-
tally obedient to the words of
our parents.
One fly in the ointment was
the fact that the barn didnt be-
long to us in the first place; it
belonged to my grandmother,
we were just living with her so
she wouldnt have to be alone.
Thankfully, on that Sunday af-
ternoon, she was visiting with
her sister in Fort Wayne.
Presently, word must have
spread into the house about
what was going on. We were
startled to hear the not very
happy voice of my father sud-
denly yell, What are you guys
doing here?
We quickly replied, We are
doing what you asked us to do.
You told us that you didnt care
if we tore the barn down, so
that is what we are doing.
Unfortunately, the response
was not as welcoming as we
had hoped. In fact, my dad did-
nt think that it was funny at all.
Within minutes, we had ham-
mers in our hands and we
began to work furiously to
patch up the damage that was
done.
I often look back at the inci-
dent (which turned out fine in
the end) and wonder how we
could have processed the inci-
dent in that manner. But I look
at how those hoping to gain
some advantage these days are
always looking for loopholes
in their purpose, looking to find
a way to understand things in
ways that turn out to their own
advantage.
In fact, I am so thankful that
adults dont misunderstand
things to their own advantage
like children do. After all, it
seems like we, too, spend
much of life rebuilding our
misgivings rather than avoid-
ing the time wasted in the first
place.
Do you have the
oldest library card?
PAULDING The Paulding County Carnegie Library team is
searching for the oldest card used in the library system. Citizens
are encouraged to search for the library card that might represent
cards dating back to the mid and early 1900s.
We have samples from the 1990s to today, states Susan
Pieper, library director. But, we just know there are cards older
than those tucked away someone in peoples homes, and we
would really like to find them.
If you find an old library card, bring it to the historic Carnegie
library in Paulding. The staff there will scan it and enter your name
into a drawing. You may have the card back unless you would like
to donate it to the library.
Although drawings for prizes will be held monthly for those
who are bringing in old cards, the contest will not end until the li-
brary centennial celebration concludes in 2016.
For more information, contact the library at 419-399-2032.
Spec-Temp and Tem-Pace are
now Paragon Tempered Glass
ANTWERP The Cypress Companies is
pleased to announce that, effective Nov. 1,
Tem-Pace LLC in Niles, Mich. and Spec-
Temp LLC in Antwerp are collectively known
as Paragon Tempered Glass LLC.
The name change follows the acquisition of
Spec-Temp by Tem-Pace in June 2012. Inter-
estingly, the name was selected by associates
of both locations, who collaborated to be
called Paragon Tempered Glass.
Paragons Antwerp location was
founded in 1977; the former
rival location opened its
doors in Niles in 1987. Col-
lectively across its two loca-
tions, Paragon Tempered
Glass operates five temper-
ing furnaces with capabilities for a wide range
of thicknesses, lengths and widths of glass to
meet demand for both flat and bent tempered
glass.
In addition to its tempering capabilities,
Paragon offers customized fabrication enhance-
ments including: cutting, edging, drilling, screen
printing and fabrication of insulated glass IG
units.
With the combined efforts of the locations,
Paragon is able to offer an expanded range of
high-precision glass applications to a variety of
end markets. These markets include transporta-
tion (recreational vehicle, truck cap, limousine,
bus, automotive OEM and aftermarket), food
service equipment, home and commercial fix-
tures, agricultural/construction equipment
cabs, doors and windows, furniture, retail dis-
play, lighting, marine, and others.
In addition to the change in name, the loca-
tions also welcome a new website to showcase
their capabilities and branding; visit
www.paragontemperedglass.com to learn
more. Employees from both locations also
contributed to the development of the website,
as well as in the creation of the accompanying
new logo.
Other exciting changes include the addition of
an 800 number, expanded customer services, as
well as a newly appointed president.
As a result of the growing
unity of efforts of the loca-
tions, earlier this year Terry
ORourke assumed the role of
president of Paragon Tem-
pered Glass LLC.
Both of these facilities have excellent repu-
tations for producing high quality tempered
glass. The dedication of our associates, along
with their commitment to quality and excep-
tional customer service, will continue to be the
foundation of each operating location. With the
investments we have made in the last 12 months,
along with those coming in the future, we will
bring the best value in tempered glass to our cus-
tomers for many years to come, noted
ORourke.
Dennis Raney, executive vice president of
The Cypress Companies, stated: We have
made significant investments to streamline
flow at both manufacturing facilities and are
now working to further synchronize the
strengths of the two sites. We cannot think of
a better choice than Terry ORourke to con-
tinue this important process.

Engineer Your Future engages
students in STEM studies
Antwerp High School students Garrett Jones, Alex Vail and Matt Reinhart (seated front) work
on an Engineer Your Future (EYF) project while teachers Cord Ehrhart and Rick Weirich help the
other students.
ANTWERP Antwerp
Local is excited to share a newly
initiated program, Engineer
Your Future (EYF). EYF is a
program for high school teach-
ers and students that provides
engaging, hands-on learning ex-
periences that encourage stu-
dents to consider greater
participation in engineering and
technology fields.
There is a recognized na-
tional need to ensure the ade-
quacy of the U.S. science and
engineering workforce. EYF
immerses students in STEM ed-
ucation.
Science, Technology, Engi-
neering and Mathematics or
STEM education is increas-
ingly recognized as an urgent
national priority. The EYF pro-
gram is framed around learning
activities that engage students in
the STEM disciplines.
Antwerps new EYF effort
began in 2011 as a result of at-
tending a professional confer-
ence and hearing about EYF.
The University of Cincinnati
(UC), in tandem with two Ohio
high schools, showcased their
EYF programs at that confer-
ence.
UCs College of Engineering
has created the EYF partnership
with Ohios schools and pro-
vides support and online re-
sources for schools participating
in EYF. The EYF partnership
with UC affords the tools and
expertise to take the EYF pro-
gram with its STEM emphasis
to students at the school/district
level. The UC online resources
and support are free to all Ohio
schools.
School year 2012-13 contin-
ued the exploration of how
Antwerp could bring the EYF
program to the students at
Antwerp. An Antwerp team
visit to Princeton High School
in Cincinnati provided a warm
welcome from teacher Brian
Lien and UC professor Dr. Eu-
gene Rudd. The visit to Prince-
ton High School allowed the
team to see EYF in action.
A final decision to implement
EYF at Antwerp was reached,
and summer planning followed
with implementation of EYF
beginning with school year
2013.
Additionally, Antwerp has
had the foresight to recognize
how the EYF program could be
blended with the schools long-
standing and successful indus-
trial technology program. EYF,
with its STEM instructional em-
phasis and curriculum, fits well
into the industrial tech area.
Antwerp has been fortunate to
have two experienced and tal-
ented teachers working with the
EYF curriculum. Mr. Cord
Ehrhart, engineer and
science/math teacher, and Mr.
Rick Weirich, industrial technol-
ogy instructor, collaborate and
share classroom space in deliv-
ering the EYF curriculum to
Antwerp High School students.
Students in the EYF program
gain real-world experience
through solving problems,
working together, and engaging
in hands-on projects delivered
through the EYF curriculum.
Both Mr. Ehrhart and Mr.
Weirich look forward to grow-
ing the EYF program at
Antwerp, bringing more of the
students into contact with
STEM learning and giving stu-
dents a college and career head
start.

WHAT DO WE MEAN BY
GENRE?
Sometimes your library
team assumes our patrons
know our library lingo.
When we ask a patron, What
genre do you enjoy reading?
sometimes they look at us
like we are speaking a foreign
language.
Genre (pronounced john-
rah) refers to the type of
book you enjoy reading. Do
you like to read a love story?
If so, then you enjoy romance
genre. Do you enjoy being
scared out of your wits?
Then, perhaps horror genre is
for you. Stories in an Amish
setting are very popular now,
and usually have an inspira-
tional theme and are consid-
ered inspirational genre.
Inspirational also refers to
Christian and uplifting fiction
titles. Other genres include
Westerns, science fiction and
mystery.
The main historic Carnegie
library in Paulding separates
the fiction collection into
genres. You will find science
fiction, Westerns, romances,
inspirational and mysteries all
shelved in their sections.
Large print although not
a genre is a format of
book, and is also shelved in
its own section.
If a fiction title does not re-
ally fit any one genre, it is
shelved in the general fiction
area. New best-sellers are
also shelved for a brief time
in the New Book section.
To make your browsing eas-
ier, there are special labels at-
tached to the spine of the
books. Each genre has its
own spine label.
Genres can also be used to
loosely define your favorite
nonfiction titles. You will find
true crime in the 364.1 sec-
tion; cookbooks in the 641
section; and Christmas deco-
rating in the 745.5 section.
As a child, I spent a lot of
time in the 636 section of the
nonfiction (horses). Many
readers know where to go
in the library to find a book
they may be interested in
reading. Some head straight
for the New Book shelf.
Others go to the inspirational,
mystery or romance shelves.
Shelving and organizing by
genre makes it easier to lo-
cate materials.
Almost 14,000 items have
been loaned each month by
your library system so far in
2013. Thousands of Paulding
County citizens use their pub-
lic library. If it has been a
while since you visited your
local library branch or the
main historic Carnegie library
in Paulding, why not visit this
week? We promise we will
help you find something on
our shelves to interest you.
Matter of fact, we are so con-
fident in the library collec-
tion, we will guarantee we
will be able to find something
for your reading, viewing or
listening pleasure! See you at
the library!

Parish missions
It has been more than a decade since there has been a parish mission in
Paulding county. The parish mission falls during the last week of the Year
of Faith and is a wonderful way to culminate a year of celebrating and grow-
ing in faith as individuals and as a parish.
Parish Missions began in the eighteenth century. Saint Alphonsus Liguori
(1696-1787), a priest of the Diocese of Naples, made significant contribu-
tions to the development of parish missions. The Redemptorists brought
them to America one hundred years later.
Parish Mission will be held Nov. 17-21 at the following locations:
Sunday, Nov. 17, 7 p.m. at Payne Divine Mercy. The topic will be Love
and Mercy of God.
Monday, Nov. 18 at Antwerp Divine Mercy, a morning mass will be fol-
lowed by a holy hour; evening will be at 7 p.m., and the topic will be Four
Last Things (Death, Judgment, Heaven, Hell).
Tuesday, Nov. 19 at Paulding, morning mass followed by a holy hour;
evening at 7 p.m. and the topic is Reconciliation (will have penance service
with confession).
Wednesday, Nov. 20 at Paulding, morning mass followed by adoration;
evening at 7 p.m. and the topic will be Catholic Family Life.
Thursday, Nov. 21 at Payne; evening at 7 p.m. and the mass topic will be
Mary.

way to honor those who

P.O. Box 566, Antwerp,
OH 45813 and Chastity
Lafountain whose last
known address is: P.O.
Box 566, Antwerp, OH
45813, each of you will
take notice that on the
22nd day of August,
2013, Plaintiff, filed a
Complaint for Forfei-
ture of Land Installment
Contract in the Paulding
County Court of Com-
mon Pleas, being Case
No. CI 13 163, alleging
that the Defendant
failed to make the pay-
ments to the Plaintiff on
said Land Installment
Contract.
In compliance with
R.C. 5313.06, on or
about May 21, 2013,
Plaintiff caused a notice
to be delivered to the
Premises, advising that
the past due amount
must be paid within 10
days of delivery of said
notice or legal action
may be commenced for
eviction and forfeiture
of said Land Installment
Contract. Pursuant to
R.C. 5313.08, service
of said notice consti-
tutes compliance with
the notice requirement
of R.C. 1923.04(A).
Said past due amount
was not paid within said
time period. There re-
mains due and owing
on said Land Install-
ment Contract the prin-
cipal sum of
$27,415.97, plus inter-
est.
Plaintiff prays that the
Defendant named
above be required to an-
swer. Because less than
five years has elapsed
from the date of the first
payment on said Land
Installment Contract,
and the Defendant has
paid less than 20%
thereof, Plaintiff is enti-
tled to an order of for-
feiture of said Land
Installment Contract
pursuant to R.C. Sec-
tions 5313.07 and
5313.08.
Said Defendant is re-
quired to file an Answer
on or before the 18th
day of December, 2013.

Ohio Community Action Com-
mission (NOCAC) is hosting
The Hunger Banquet from
5:30-8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 19
at the UAW Hall, 2120 Balti-

Life is at times difficult to

often they are negative. Diners
will experience distinct socioe-
conomic classes throughout the
evening. They may find them-
selves in line at the soup-
kitchen, or being served a
five-course gourmet meal, or
somewhere in between.
The event will help illus-
trate the disparity between
wealth and poverty in our
area, explained Angie
Franklin, director of commu-
nity services at NOCAC.
Theres an emcee, theres
audience participation,
Franklin added. It will be fun,
but in a makes-you-think way.
The hosts for the evening
will be Rick Small and Cory
Dobbelaere. Throughout the
evening, real-life stories will il-
lustrate choices and events that
can change lives in an instant.
This will be an event to re-
member.
The public may purchase
tickets online at
www.nocac.org through PAY-
PAL ($10 adults/ $5 college
students and children).

pleting the online registration

Defiance County, in conjunction with Paulding County, will be
offering Master Gardener Training Feb. 27- April 24.
A minimum class registration of 12 students is needed to con-
duct the training. The classes will run from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. each
Thursday, for nine weeks.
Anyone interested in receiving an application packet should
contact the Defiance County office as soon as possible by emailing
walters.269@osu.edu or phoning 419-782-4771 or 800-745-4771.
The Master Gardener program offers 50 hours of horticultural
training, which is then followed-up by 50 volunteer hours com-
pleted by each student to become certified.
The following are a list of topics that Master Gardeners will
learn about during the 2014 training: Botany, Soils & Fertilizer,
Plant Pathology, Plant Propagation, Tree Pruning & Care, Grow-
ing Herbs, Fruit, Turfgrass, Entomology, Herbaceous & Woody
Ornamentals, and Vegetables.
The cost of the 2014 training is $90. Students also will be re-
sponsible for getting fingerprinted before the end of the training.
Fingerprinting is required because Master Gardeners are volun-
teers of The Ohio State University. The Paulding County Sheriffs
Office offers fingerprinting at the cost of $30.
