By JIM LANGHAM
Feature Writer
Paulding County EMA di-
rector Randy Shaffer spent
much of Monday investigating
Sundays storm damage in
several Paulding County areas
to determine whether actual
tornado activity had occurred
or there had been damage as a
result of large straight line
wind gusts.
That damage was closely
related, geographically to what
appears to be massive tornado
damage in Cloverdale, located
about four miles to the south-
east of the trailer. Other barn
damage and pole and wire
damage occurred in that area.
On Tuesday, Shaffer said
that the National Weather
Service determined that a mo-
bile home on Road 12 near
Road 203 southeast of
Mandale had been destroyed
by an F2 tornado, probably the
same twister that struck
Cloverdale.
Other damage occurred
along Ohio 114, where a roof
was taken off of a dairy barn
just west of Ohio 49 south of
Payne, a grain bin hurled
across a field near the intersec-
tion of County Road 83 and
Ohio 111, another mobile
home destroyed on Road 48 at
Ohio 66, and County Road
144, where several poles and
wires were felled, causing a
large power outage on the
north side of Paulding.
At noon on Monday,
Shaffer was conferring with
the National Weather Service
to determine the nature of the
damage. Shaffer said he con-
cluded that all Paulding
County damage, except for the
trailer on Road 12, had oc-

PAULDING Beth Kelly, a 17-
year veteran of the classroom, be-
lieves in the hands-on approach when
it comes to teaching her students.
Currently a kindergarten teacher at
Paulding Elementary, Kelly recently
received the 2013 Ohio History
Teacher of the Year award, co-spon-
sored by The Gilder Lehrman Institute
of American History and the Advisory
Council on Historic Preservation on
behalf of its Preserve America pro-
gram.
Recognition of the prestigious
award was made known last Thursday
during a special assembly in her
honor. Kelly also received a $1,000
honorarium.
This award gives us the chance to
recognize great history teachers across
the country, said Lesley S.
Herrmann, executive director of the
Gilder Lehrman Institute of American
History. It puts exceptional educators
front and center.
In order to be considered for the
award, Kelly was first nominated by
retired teacher and former colleague
Jan Kohart.
I was not aware she was doing this.
Just to be nominated by another
teacher was certainly an honor, said

the spotlight. But I do appreci-
ate the support I received from
all the teachers here at PES
along with the staff and princi-
pal Stephanie Tear, she said.
Along with receiving the
state teacher award, the
Paulding Elementary library
will receive a core archive of
history books and educational
materials from the Gilder
Lehrman Institute of American
History, Kelly will be invited
to a 2014 Gilder Lehrman
teacher seminar, and Paulding
Elementary will be named a
Gilder Lehrman Affiliate
School.
One of the exciting addi-
tions to the award is having
seminars and resources avail-
able to all the PES history
teachers through the Gilder
Lehrman Institute, said Kelly.
Kelly grew up in Paulding
County and graduated from
Paulding High School. She
holds a bachelors degree in
early childhood education
from the University of Toledo
and a master of education de-
gree from Bowling Green
State University.
The 2013 award honors ele-
mentary school teachers of
kindergarten through sixth
grade. The selection of the state
winner is based upon several
criteria, including: at least three
years of classroom experience
in teaching American history; a
demonstrated commitment to
teaching American history (in-
cluding state and local history);
evidence of creativity and
imagination in the classroom;
effective use of documents, ar-
tifacts, historic sites, oral histo-
ries, and other primary re-
sources to engage students
with American history.
Kelly.
After the nomination
process, there were recom-
mendations submitted on her
behalf followed by two class-
room projects provided to the
review panel.
I had to submit two differ-
ent units of study from my
classroom. The first unit was
American Symbols and the
second unit depicted Native
Americans in Paulding
County. We use a lot of tech-
nology in class and most of our
study and research comes from
online video field trips that
allow the students to experi-
ence hands on learning and un-
derstanding, said Kelly.
Some of the symbols high-
lighted in unit one were
George Washington, Abraham
Lincoln, the White House,
American flag, and the bald
eagle.
It is basically an interactive
field trip that allows the student
to view up close those sym-
bols they may not see any
other way. The audio portion
of the tour simply tells the
story and allows the event to be
fun while learning takes place
at the same time, Kelly said.
The Paulding Elementary
teacher feels by using these
types of resources the kids get
closer to the subject and there-
fore a better understanding de-
velops.
Kelly received word in July
that she was chosen for the
state award.

little pup was in the trailer.
Needless to say, there were
tears when family members
pulled up to the destroyed
trailer at the corner of Road 48
and Ohio 66 and little Miracle
came running out from under
the debris, wagging his tail,
and running over to them.
This dog has been a mira-
cle through and through, said
Shaffer. He almost died when
he was born. Now he survived
this.
Shaffer said that she and her
husband has a feeling that they
should ask their family to
leave the mobile home and
come to their home, just down
the road. In fact, five minutes
before the storm, Kraegel was
sleeping in the trailer. Kim
Shaffer urged him to come to
their home and the storm hit
immediately after.
Rick Noggle, Red Cross
disaster chairman for Paulding
County, told the Progress that
the Red Cross had aided the
family of four with access to
food and clothing.

This photo and caption ran on the front page of the Paulding Progress on
Nov. 28, 1963, a few days after President John Kennedy was murdered in Dallas.
It was one of two Page 1 news items regarding the event that stunned the na-
tion and the world.
RITE AID ROBBER SENTENCED Convicted robber Kaz
K. Shenfeld was sentenced in Paulding County Common
Pleas Court on Monday by Judge Tiffany Reighter-
Beckman to a stated prison term of six years in the Ohio
Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. This is to run
concurrent with any sentences he has in Indiana. He must
also pay $3,392 restitution to Rite Aid Pharmacy in
Paulding, the victim of his Nov. 29, 2012, robbery. On that
day, he presented a note at the pharmacy saying he had a
gun and demanded drugs with a threat that he would kill
everyone if his demands were not met. Shenfeld, a 24-year-
old father of four from Harlan, Ind., was visibly emotional
before his sentencing and apologized profusely when he
spoke to the Court. Judge Beckman noted Shenfeld had
two theft offenses in 2003, another in 2004 had escalated
to the point he is today. A threat to kill is significant where
ever you are, she concluded. A pair of pharmacy employ-
ees was on hand for the sentencing. One said she would
have liked to have seen him get the full eight years allowed
for his second degree felony, robbery.
50 years later, residents recall the
tragic day that changed our nation
By NANCY WHITAKER
Progress Staff Writer
Anyone who was around in 1963
will recall the date Nov. 22. That
cold, gray November day was when
the 35th president of the United
States, John Fitzgerald Kennedy,
was assassinated. This week marks
the 50th anniversary of his death.
JFK was shot and killed while rid-
ing in a motorcade in Dallas, Texas,
with his wife Jackie at his side.
His untimely death at the hands of
accused assassin Lee Harvey
Oswald sent shockwaves through
the United States. Daily routines
were interrupted as citizens were riv-
eted to their television screens
watching the tragic news being re-
ported.
Who can forget the details of the
Presidents death or the chaos that
followed? Who can forget Oswald
being shot by Jack Ruby on that
Sunday on live TV?
The history and events of that day
are still being investigated and many
theories have come to light during
the past 50 years. Did Oswald act
alone? Was there another shooter?
What was the motive? We may
never know all the answers.
Can you remember what were you
doing and where you were at when
you heard the news of JFKs death
on Nov. 22, 1963?
Clara Youtsey of Latty recalls, I
know where I was. I was getting
ready to go to work in Van Wert. I
was shocked to hear it and when I
got to work, we shut down the ma-
chines for a while. I remember
watching the funeral and could not
believe it.
Rose Sweet of Paulding said, I
was 16 years old and living in
Akron, Ohio. I was taking care of six
little children and three of the
younger ones were down for a nap
when the news came on TV.
It was hard to comprehend how a
man so important and well known
could be killed like that, Sweet
added. One thing that still stands
out in my mind is seeing newsman
Walter Cronkite almost break down
and lose it. I do think that day made
me feel like a grown up.
Daisy Farley said, I was in
school in West Virginia. When we
heard the news, they let us out of
school the rest of the week to watch
all of the news including the funer-
al.
Dave Jordan of Payne notes that
he was just tying up at the pier at
Oakland Naval Shipyard. He had
been gone for approximately two
months on the USNS Barrett TAP
196, transporting servicemen to the
far east.
He said that they tied down the
ship after learning the news of the
President being shot and spent the
rest of the evening watching it on the
news.
Darlene Jordan said that she was
going to school in Toledo and the
students were all told to get on their
knees and pray.
Ann Pease said, I sure remember
that day. I was a senior in high
school and was in Mr. Pennells
class when he got a knock on the
classroom door.
After closing the door, he came
back into the classroom and his face
was ashen. He told us then that
President Kennedy had just been as-
sassinated.
When I got home from school,
Mom always met us when we got
off the bus. I asked her, Mom was-
nt it terrible about the President get-
ting shot?
She said, Thats not funny to say
something like that.
Dad and Mom had not had the
TV on so they hadnt heard about the
President being killed. Once they
found out, we watched TV all week-
end and watched it all on TV. We
were all shocked and sad.
Jerry Scarbrough of Grover Hill
recalls, I was 23 years old and was
just learning to be a mechanic at
Gauvey Motor Co. in Grover Hill. I
was getting someones new 1964
Ford car ready for delivery and I had
a radio real close when the news
came over the air. Every time I hear
something about that tragic day, it
takes me back to those memories.
Linda Scarbrough, also of Grover
Hill said, I was 22 years old when
President Kennedy was shot. I was
at work when I heard the news. I was
so upset I left work and went home.
I watched TV every day and
night, not missing a single picture of
this tragic event. I watched Mrs.
Kennedy kiss the coffin, John-John
salute his dads coffin, and watched
Mrs. Kennedy and her brothers-in-
law walk behind the coffin to the
cemetery.
Caroline and John-John wore
matching coats. Mrs. Kennedy wore
everything black. You could barely
see her face through the very black
veil. She talked to no one, just hung
on to Bobbys arm.
Everything was so very sad. The
day after the funeral, I finally went
back to work. I then wondered if my
life would ever be the same. It took
many weeks before I felt safe
again. Every year I still have the
same question go over and over in
my mind. Why wouldnt President
Kennedy let the secret service put
the bubble on his car?
Kylee Baumle of Haviland re-
calls, I was 6 years old and what I
remember most was how upset my
mother was. I still have an image of
her sitting in her black stirrup pants,
watching the funeral on TV, crying.
And I remember her explaining
to me why there was a riderless
horse with a with a pair of boots
placed backwards in the stirrups, in
the funeral procession.
Alice Gerber, formerly of
Paulding noted, I was in fourth
grade. One of my classmates dad
came to take him home or maybe
church. Our teacher asked why he
was picking up his son, to which he
answered that President Kennedy
had been shot.
I could not comprehend why he
would have been shot/killed. What
purpose would it have had?
Needless to say, nothing else was
taught that last hour in class. The rest
of that day was so sad.

The Eastern Kingbird
By Mark Holtsberry
Education specialist
Paulding SWCD
This time of year, nature creates some of the
most beautiful array of colors and blending vari-
ations of the color chart. The Nature Center is
alive with bird activity this fall, as I am noticing
a dozen or so Eastern Kingbirds.
Well named, kingbirds are highly territorial
and aggressive, and are often seen badgering
crows, raptors, and any other large bird that over-
flies their domain. I witnessed this because they
chased off some sparrows, as it looks like the
sparrows were too close. They possess a sleek,
suave look, with crisp blackish upper parts, clean
white under parts, and a tail that looks like it was
dipped in white paint. Eastern kingbirds do not
have much of a voice though; they give an un-
birdlike rapid electric chattering.
The Eastern kingbird perches on treetops,
fences, and utility poles, when another bird flies
into its territory, even one much larger than itself;
it attacks fiercely, uttering a piercing cry. When
one of a pair starts the battle, the other usually
joins in. Its aggressive behavior has earned this
bird its common name. In late summer and early
fall they often flock, and large numbers pursue
flying insects, they also feed on wild berries,
which they deftly pluck while on the wing.
The nesting habits for the Eastern kingbird
vary, but usually will have three to five spotted
white eggs in a large bulky nest consisting of
heaps of twigs, straw, and twine lined with hair
and rootlets, built on horizontal limbs of a tree,
often near water.
Happy bird watching this fall!

Christmas shopping
in September
works best for me
I admit that I do not enjoy Christmas shopping. Hearing all
the commercials about the upcoming Black Friday sales that
have turned into Thanksgiving Thursday sales and Im still
not excited. I do not plan to cut short the family feast or set
the alarm for the middle of the night in order to save a few
dollars. I did that several
years ago when I was younger
and more energetic and I am
not so sure I saved all that
much. So today, a little wiser
and still broke, I feel my rest is
more important than a bargain.
Now with that off my chest
I must confess I have done
some Christmas shopping already this year. It started back in
September because you could purchase school supplies at the
lowest price of the year. My late summer shopping trip was with
a purpose. A worthwhile adventure for several reasons and thats
what made it tolerable for me even enjoyable. Oh, the pur-
pose? I wanted to teach my grand children the gift of giving. I
wanted them to experience the idea of sharing with others who
are less fortunate than they and to give in a right kind of spirit.
My wife and I have always supported Operation Christmas
Child a ministry started by Franklin Graham, son of evangelist
Billy Graham. For those who may not know, Operation Christ-
mas Child is simply taking a shoe box and filling it full of items
such as school supplies, small toys, socks, stuffed animals, a
toothbrush and tooth paste, and so forth. The boxes are then de-
livered to a local drop off point (usually a church) where they
are loaded into a large semi truck for processing and distribu-
tion. The shoe boxes are delivered as Christmas gifts around the
world to less fortunate children in need.
Now, back to my September shopping trip the trip with pur-
pose. With our church supporting Operation Christmas Child
this year and a goal of 35 shoe boxes, I wanted my two grand
kids to get in on the joy of giving. We explained to them how
we would be shopping for two children, a boy and girl about
their age, who live in Africa or possibly South America. So,
with money in hand we were on our mission. Standing in one of
those dollar type stores I witnessed two young kids shopping for
their two unknown receivers and they did it with such precision.
They quickly caught on to the purpose and wanted to purchase
those special items that would bring a bit of joy when they
opened their gift. Everything had to be perfect and if they liked
a certain item they just knew their new friend half way around
the world would like it also.
With the shopping cart filled with so many possibilities for
their shoe boxes the only problem we now faced were having
more items than room. It was time to decide what was important
enough to keep and what we put back on the shelf. It was a
struggle but the kids finally got it all figured out. Now it was
time to pack the boxes. Every item had to be positioned in just
the right spot in their shoebox and when completed it was
packed and ready to go on a journey to a little boy or girls some-
where in another land. Oh, the faith of little children. How many
of us as adults would purchase a gift and give it away to some-
one we dont even know just for the simple fact that it is so
much more blessed to give.
So, through the actions of my grandkids I have learned how
giving in the right spirit and for a purpose beyond ourselves is
exciting and you dont even need to know the receiver. After all,
its the giver who will be truly blessed. Oh, and for Christmas
shopping well, its not so bad; you just have to do it in Sep-
tember.

Antwerp Council considers
the value of Mayors Court
By JOE SHOUSE
Correspondent
ANTWERP The Antwerp
Village Council met in regular
session on Monday. A discus-
sion on the importance of
Mayors Court, salary increases
for village employees, and an
extra holiday with pay were part
of the councils agenda.
Councilman Larry Ryan, who
serves on the finance committee,
questioned the continued use of
Mayors Court.
Do we need Mayors
Court? he asked. Concerning
the overall budget for the village,
Ryan reported the village started
with a negative budget the last
two years, although it did not end
up that way. Mayors Court has
a budget of $14,000 and so far
this year it has taken in $9,600.
Mayor Tom VanVlerah ques-
tioned some of the findings and
the actual figures while Police
Chief George Clemens spoke
against the idea.
Something has got to be
done. We cannot continue to
have this kind of result where
we take in less money than it
costs to run Mayors Court,
said Ryan.
In response, Clemens said,
So what you are saying is my
police department needs to go
out and arrest more people?
Although no final decision
was made, Chief Clemens rec-
ommended to continue Mayors
Court for another year and then
re-evaluate its status.
Council members agreed to
give village employees Dec. 24
off with pay. Currently, employ-
ees receive 11 holidays per year.
At next months council meet-
ing, an ordinance will be pre-
sented to give employees
Christmas Eve day off when it
falls on Monday through Friday.
The proposed 2014 budget
was presented to council. After
brief discussion the Council
agreed by consensus to increase
salaries for village employees 2
percent.
Council continues to seek in-
formation from model ordi-
nances concerning the
regulation of sexually oriented
businesses. The language of
such ordinances must be passed
with the exact language of the
attorney generals office in order
for the state to assist the village
should the ordinances be chal-
lenged. Once the proposed ordi-
nances are complete they will go
before the public safety commit-
tee for recommendations and
eventual approval.
A new proposed water and
sewer increase of 2 percent has
been submitted to Paragon Tem-
pered Glass (formerly Spec-
Temp). Although Paragon was
seeking no increase or no more
than 1 percent, council approved
the 2 percent increase.
They have not had an in-
crease in three years and yet
everyone else has, said Coun-
cilman Ryan.
A motion by Ryan, seconded
by Jan Reeb to present the in-
crease to Paragon unanimously
passed. The water and sewer in-
crease will be approximately
$1,732 per year.
Riverside Market owner
Doug Bragg presented to Coun-
cil his desire to secure a license
allowing his store to sell beer
and wine. All necessary paper-
work could possibly be com-
pleted in order for sales to begin
after the first of the year.
The cemetery board has re-
ceived the opportunity to pur-
chase nine-tenths of an acre
located next to the cemetery.
Unable to fund the $15,000 pur-
chase price, the cemetery board
is seeking the support of the vil-
lage and township to split the
cost three ways. With a question
about future ownership, the vil-
lage will research their respon-
sibility and report back to the
cemetery board.
Council unanimously voted
to support the Paulding County
Economic Development office
in the amount of $1,500.
After hearing the third reading
on a resolution accepting the es-
timated amounts the village will
receive from necessary tax
levies in 2014, council unani-
mously voted to accept the esti-
mated amounts.
Council unanimously ap-
proved an ordinance declaring
the village to pay $23,000 in
2014 on a note with Antwerp
Exchange Bank that has a bal-
ance of $115,103.94.
Council authorized the village
fiscal officer to transfer $20,000
from the general fund to the
water fund.
In other business:
Police Chief Clemens re-
ported 143 calls for service for
the month of October.
Mayors Court brought in
$1,076.50 for the month.
The new village web site
should be up and running by
Dec. 1.

So many to thank - so little space.
This has sure been a humbling experience. Was so nice
to see so many people that I used to deal with all of
the time. I didnt expect to see so many people at the
benefit, but man, it made me feel good. I sure got wore
out from trying to talk with everyone, and I know that
there were a LOT more I wanted to talk with. I want to thank Denny Price and everyone at the Pauld-
ing Eagles for hosting the benefit. Tony and Nancy
Burkely for being so supportive in many ways (and
Tony for being a really great boss for these many years).
Thanks also to Aaron Timm for his auctioning skills.
To anyone that donated items, worked at the benefit,
bought items, said a kind word or anything else
my heart felt THANKS! Last but by far least - I have to
thank my wife SANDY for everything she has done
these last 6 months. You dont realize what you do in a
day until you cant. She has been my ROCKthrough all
this and has done more than I could have ever asked
or expected from her.
So again THANK YOU ALL!

tion fundraising chairman for the park. The decision to help
with this park was an easy one, because the Moose Club gives

of great benefit to everyone in the community, Bland said. The
park is located at the corner of Main and Jackson in Paulding.

First Presbyterian Church is one of the groups funding the final phase of the new Herb Monroe
Community Park. Above are Barb Searing, representing the First Presbyterian Church, and Ron
Williamson, fundraising chair for Leadership In Action.
The third and final phase of the new Herb Monroe Community Park has started. Paulding
County Independent Insurance Agents Association is one of the sponsors. From left are Megan

Herb Monroe Community Park enters third and final phase
PAULDING The Final Phase
of the Herb Monroe Community
Park is now under way. However,
$10,000 more is needed to fund and
complete the beautification project,
spearheaded by Paulding Chamber
of Commerce and its Leadership In
Action program.
Those making the start of the
third phase possible are the Kiwa-
nis Club of Paulding, Paulding
County Independent Insurance
Agents Association, and First Pres-
byterian Church. Without the great
support of these sponsors, a project
of this size couldnt be accom-
plished.
Construction started earlier this
year at the corner of Main and Jack-
son streets on the northeast corner
of the square in Paulding.
Donations are still being accepted
at P.O. Box 237, Paulding OH
45879. Please make checks payable
to Friends of the Paulding Chamber.
Bricks that will be placed under
the pergola structure are also being
sold.
Those bricks are available for
$100 each and can have a name en-
graved on them. Its a perfect
Christmas gift for the person who
has everything. Please call Ron at
419-399-3650 to reserve a brick
today.

In The
Garden
Tis the season
in there. Im willing to bet all
your old favorites can be
found here.
And the color photos are
just as delicious as the edi-
bles. Coffee table eye candy,
which is why I cant simply
put this thing on a shelf until
New Years Day. Its just too
tempting and it will take me
weeks just to get all the way
through it.
Theres growing informa-
tion for all the varieties, mak-
ing it easy to choose the best
varieties for your own gar-
den. Articles sharing horticul-
tural history makes this seed
catalog read more like a
book. All this and recipes,
too!
If you want a copy of your
own, you can order it on their
website: rareseeds.com. The
cover price is just $7.95
which is really way too little
to charge for this. Shipping is
free in the U.S. Just look for
The Whole Seed Catalog.
Yes, I received a free copy
and no, they didnt pay me to
tell you about it. I just wanted
to share the goodness.
This would make a won-
derful stocking stuffer for the
gardener on your Christmas
list. Well, see there? Im al-
ready starting to think about
shopping. Will wonders never
cease...

book is chock full of such di-
verse offerings the likes of
which many of us have never
seen or even heard of. If
theres one thing that the
Mansfield, Mo., company is
known for, its heirloom
seeds.
Jere Gettle, the companys
founder, began traveling the
world in search of new vari-
eties of seed and began his
business at the age of 17 in
1998. Hes still finding them
and currently the catalog of-
fers over 1,500 varieties of
fruit, vegetable, flower, and
herb seeds and not one of
them is genetically modified.
They never will be.
The names of some of them
are downright poetic. Ananas
DAmerique a Chair Vert is a
melon that Thomas Jefferson
grew at Monticello in 1794
and was offered commer-
cially in 1824. When was the
last time youve seen that one
in the seed racks?
Some names are just quirky
and fun. Amish Deer Tongue
lettuce? Theyve got it. Look-
ing for Red Freddy basil? Its
For over a week now, Ive
seen Christmas decorations
and heard Christmas music in
a handful of stores. Im not ir-
ritated by it like some people
are, maybe because Im a
procrastinator extraordinaire
and anything that attempts to
jump-start me at such a major
event on the calendar is prob-
ably a good thing.
The garden year goes by a
slightly different calendar,
dictated by the weather and
daylight hours. For those of
us who live up here where the
four seasons are distinctly
different from each other, the
growing period pretty much
comes to a halt after a hard
freeze.
Most of us gardeners wel-
come the break and move
right into the Thanksgiving
and Christmas seasons. I
cant imagine trying to juggle
garden activities, a job, kids,
and the holidays all at the
same time. Three out of four
is hectic enough. I only have
to worry about two of those
and it still makes me tired by
the time January rolls around.
Once the holidays are past,
the seed catalogs come and
we have more time to dream
and drool and plan for spring.
I appreciate that the catalogs
wait until my brain and my
schedule are free of distrac-
tions and I can devote more
of my thoughts to what
changes I want to make in the
design of the gardens and
what new veggies I might
want to grow in the coming
year.
But this year is different.
Just last week, a gorgeous
seed catalog arrived in my
mail box. ALREADY. I
havent begun thinking about
Christmas shopping yet. I
wont even start to plan my
Thanksgiving dinner menu
until early next week.
Is this what those of you
who detest the early advent of
the holiday season feel like? I
know I could just tuck that
seed catalog away for later,
but this just isnt any seed cat-
alog. This one is from Baker
Creek Heirloom Seeds and
its epic.
Called The Worlds
Largest Seed Catalog, the
356-page, half-inch thick
Vantage board sees latest
technology demonstrated
By LINDSAY McCOY
DHI Correspondent
VAN WERT - Vantage Ca-
reer Center Network System
Instructor Larry Regedanz
presented the newest piece of
technology to be introduced
at Vantage, the touch table, to
Vantage Board of Education
members the regular board
meeting Nov. 7.
This $15,000 purchase is a
large Samsung television
with a built-in computer sys-
tem that can sync directly
with all student computers
within networking lab, the
Smart Board, and the instruc-
tors computer. This allows
students using the touch table
to share their work or a pres-
entation on all other devices,
as well as allowing an in-
structor to monitor all work
on a students computer.
This enhanced touch screen
allows for 40 touch points al-
lowing for a large group of
students to use the touch table
at one time. Students are cur-
rently using this piece of
technology to create a futur-
istic Indy car for regional
competition as well as prac-
tice taking apart a computer
before moving onto the real
thing.
Treasurer Lori Davis re-
ported on the updated five-
year financial forecast. In
2015, Vantage will begin col-
lection on the national power
plant moneys. This money
along with other new rev-
enues is expected to increase
income taxes significantly.
We are very financially
healthy and are fortunate to
be in the position we are in,
said Davis. We are also sit-
ting very good with our carry-
over cash balance. We will
continue to operate finan-
cially sound.
The current carry-over bal-
ance would allow the school
to run a full 10 months with-
out all other revenues. Van-
tage has never discussed
establishing a carryover be-
fore, and Davis recom-
mended hanging onto a
six-month operating balance
at all times.
Davis predicted that state
monies will remain flatlined
over the next couple years as
they are guaranteed not to
lower. The district is not ex-
pected to collect much from
incoming casino money, but
will be collecting $100,000
more than expected in wind
turbine money.
It took a lot of planning to
get things where they are
now, said superintendent
Staci Kaufman. Kaufman
also reported that platinum
status for LEED certification
is looking very much in
reach. She is currently mak-
ing a list of current green
LEED credits already ob-
tained by the district.
Vantage may be selling its
North Harrison Street prop-
erty. Kaufman hopes a pur-
chase agreement can be made
by next spring. The property is
currently appraised at $1,500.
A walk-through of the
building will be held Thurs-
day, Nov. 14, at 9 a.m. The tour
will be of the entire compre-
hensive building plan which al-
most a year later is now nearly
complete. Over 1,000 local
eighth graders toured Vantage
on Wednesday for the
prospects of attending the
school.

QUESTION: I feel like
my daughters slipping
away. I want to be a great
dad, but I dont know how
to connect with her now
that she has reached the
tween years.
Jim: The single most im-
portant thing you can do is
spend quality time with her.
This is a constant challenge
for me as I try to invest in my
two boys. Dr. Kevin Leman
suggests that the bond fathers
develop with their daughters
during times of real conversa-
tion and connection can pay
huge dividends.
According to Dr. Leman,
during the tween years fathers
need to adopt the policy of
dating their daughters on a
regular basis. Showing your
daughter that shes a high pri-
ority is essential for many
reasons. For one thing, it will
help her seek out men who
will respect her later in life.
Affirming your daughters
femininity and treating her
special conveys this impor-
tant charge: Honey, seek out
someone who will treat you
right. If you can demonstrate
for your daughter what a true
gentlemen is like - someone
who honors, respects and val-
ues her - shell be more likely
to gravitate toward men like
that when she begins dating.
So take your daughter out
for dinner or a round of
miniature golf, or something
else that interests her. I know
this can be tough, especially
when you also need to make
time for your other family
members. But its so impor-
tant. The investment you
make in your daughter now
will impact her for the rest of
her life.
QUESTION: Can you
suggest guidelines for mod-
esty in the home? I assume
its OK for my husband and
me to shower with our chil-
dren and change clothes in
front of them while theyre
still toddlers. Im just won-
dering when we should stop
doing that. Any ideas?
Dr. Greg Smalley, vice
president, Family Ministries:
There isnt a hard and fast
rule for dealing with this
issue. Most pediatricians and
child development experts
agree that when a child be-
gins to express a desire for
privacy when naked or going
to the bathroom, thats the
time parents should begin to
express more personal mod-
esty. This typically occurs
around the age of 3 or 4. For
some kids it may be a little
later.
Its also important that you
begin to instill a healthy view
of sexuality in your children
from an early age. You should
start when theyre toddlers,
using age-appropriate con-
cepts and language.
For example, when a
young child asks questions
about where babies come
from, answer their questions
in a positive, straightforward
manner. Deflecting the ques-
tion or making an awkward
reference to the stork wont
cut it! You might say some-
thing like, God made a spe-
cial way for mommies and
daddies to have babies. He
uses a tiny little seed from
Daddy and a tiny little egg
from Mommy. The seed and
the egg come together inside
Mommys tummy, and then
God does a miracle and
makes a new baby. This kind
of explanation is typically
sufficient for most kids. You
dont need to go into a de-
tailed description of human
physiology.
One more thing that is
bound to come up in your
home, if it hasnt already:
By Jim Daly
Most experts also recom-
mend using accurate names
for male and female genitalia.
Cutesy names or code words
can be confusing to a child,
and can unintentionally lead
to shame and embarrassment
down the road, especially
with other children.

area, check out Dr. Kevin
Leman and Kathy Flores

Winning the Battle for a Generation

By Rick Jones
exec. director, Defiance
Area Youth for Christ
How do you respond to pain and suffering?
In a sermon for the LifeWay Pastors
newsletter, Andy Cook writes, The following
are actual responses from comment cards
given to the staff members at Bridger Wilder-
ness Area in 1996.
Trails need to be wider so people can walk
while holding hands.
Trails need to be reconstructed. Please
avoid building trails that go uphill.
Too many bugs, leeches, spiders and spi-
der webs. Please spray the wilderness to rid
the areas of these pests.
Please pave the trails so they can be snow-
plowed during the winter.
Chair lifts need to be in some places so we
can get to wonderful views without having to
hike to them.
The coyotes made too much noise last
night and kept me awake. Please eradicate
these annoying animals.
A small deer came into my camp and stole
my jar of pickles. Is there a way I can get re-
imbursed?
Reflectors need to be placed on trees every
50 feet so people can hike at night with flash-
lights.
Escalators would help on steep uphill sec-
tions.
A McDonalds would be nice at the trail-
head.
The places where trails do not exist are not
well marked.
Too many rocks in the mountains.
How do you respond to pain and suffering?
Were not fond of pain, or even slight discom-
fort. We rebel at the suggestion of it, recoil at
the sight of it, and reject the suggestion that it
might be good for us; but the lessons of life
are almost always taught in the classroom of
suffering, whether youre suffering through an
elementary school spelling quiz, dealing with
the excruciating pain of disease, or the heart-
break of grief.
Regarding pain and suffering the Apostle
Paul wrote 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV), But
he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you,
for my power is made perfect in weakness.

mously to close the books on the 2013 fair.
Several board members commented that
they had received some good public remarks
regarding the excellence of the 2013 fair.
President Tim Shafer commented, We ex-
pect the 2014 fair to be even bigger and bet-
ter and we thank everyone for helping.
The board then elected officers for the
2013/14 season. They are: Tim Shafer, pres-
ident; Dan Howell, vice president; and Sue

ficers and directors.

uled for Saturday, June 14 and will include
a professional stunt show in front of the
grandstand. The show will be comprised of
cars, trucks, stars, chases, jumps, rollovers
and action and drama.
Kenny Thomas and other fair board direc-
tors have accepted the responsibility to
make arrangements with the stunt show
people to finalize setting up the event.
The society hired Stephanie Thomas as
the new treasurer. Thomas is currently re-
ceiving orientation and training.
There was extensive discussion regarding
the Christmas light display for the 2013
Christmas season, as there was some con-
flict regarding the use of the extension build-
ing for the first weekend in December.
The dates for the Christmas lights at the
Paulding County Fairgrounds have been
changed to Dec. 13-15 and Dec. 20-22. The

p.m. The display will be a drive-through
with lighted Christmas displays, music and
a donation box.
The youths also has planned to have dec-
orations and activities inside the extension
building. The junior fair board and members
invite everyone to come out and enjoy the
Christmas display.
If anyone or any organization is interested
in setting up a display, please contact a jun-
ior or senior fairboard director or call the
Ohio State Extension Office at 419-399-
8225.
The displays may be originated from busi-
nesses, churches, social services or any in-
dividual or group. The displays need to be
focused on themes of the Christmas Sea-
son.
The next meeting is scheduled for 7:30
p.m. Dec. 10.

Winters given Ohio a sneak preview Are you ready?
COLUMBUS Winter made
an early appearance this fall.
Northeast Ohio received several
inches of heavy snow on Oct. 24.
The snow downed tree limbs,
caused power outages and closed
schools. The majority of the state
got a taste of winter again, on
Tuesday morning after rain
showers changed to ice and
snow overnight. Another several
inches of snow was forecasted
for northern Ohio, with the Na-
tional Weather Service issuing
Lake Effect Snow Warnings and
Advisories for multiple counties.
Sunday, Nov. 17 kicked off
Ohios Winter Safety Awareness
Week. As part of a coordinated
effort with the Ohio Committee
for Severe Weather Awareness
(OCSWA), Gov. John R. Kasich
encourages Ohioans to update
their safety plans, replenish their
disaster supply kits to sustain all
household members for several
days, and prepare themselves
and their property for winter-re-
lated incidents.
Winter Safety Week is good
time to winterize vehicles, said
Nancy Dragani, executive direc-
tor of the Ohio Emergency Man-
agement Agency. Now is a
good time to get your car or
truck tuned up and your tires and
batteries checked. Make sure
brakes, lights and turn signals
are working properly. Dont for-
get to check the window washer
fluid reservoir, and make sure
your wiper blades are in good,
working condition.
It is also important to be in-
formed know before you go.
Pay attention to weather fore-
casts and reports. Listen for re-
ports of school and business
closings, snow emergencies,
traffic delays or road closures.
Plan your drive time accord-
ingly.
To help prepare for winter,
OCSWA recommends the fol-
lowing:
Prepare your home for
winter. Cut and remove low-
hanging and dead tree branches.
Ice, snow and strong winds can
cause tree limbs to break and
fall. Have your gutters cleaned.
Snow and ice can build up
quickly if gutters are clogged
with debris. Have auxiliary
heaters, furnaces and fireplaces
maintenance checked or serviced
before using. If using a portable
generator, read instructions thor-
oughly to guard against carbon
monoxide poisoning. Review
your homeowners insurance
policy; consider your need for
flood insurance.
Prepare winter disaster
kits for the home and vehicle.
Refresh stored nonperishable
foods and bottled water. Change
the batteries in your smoke de-
tectors, carbon monoxide detec-
tors and radios. Winter
emergency kits should include
warm clothing, blankets, flash-
lights, new batteries, coats, hats,
gloves, a battery-operated or
hand-cranked radio, first aid kit,
and enough nonperishable food
and water (one gallon per per-
son, per day) to sustain every
family member for several days.
Have stored food, bottled water
and supplies for your pets, as
well.
Invest in a NOAA public
alert/weather radio. Every
home, school and business
should have a tone- alert weather
radio with a battery back-up.
Weather and public alert radios
are programmed to automati-
cally sound an alert during pub-
lic safety and severe weather
events. Click on
www.weather.gov/nwr/ for addi-
tional information.
Update your disaster pre-
paredness plans. Every home,
school, and business should have
written plans for the different
types of disasters that can occur.
Review the plans with the entire
family or staff. Everyone should
know what to do in the event of
a snow or ice storm, a prolonged
power outage, a flood or fire.
Post contact information for
your local emergency manage-
ment agency. Prepare and prac-
tice drills that require sheltering
in place and evacuation. Update
your emergency contact list and
establish a meeting place outside
of the home, school or business,
where others will know where to
find or meet you.
OCSWA is an advocate for
emergency preparedness and is
comprised of representatives
from the following: American
Red Cross; Emergency Manage-
ment Association of Ohio; Na-
tional Weather Service; Ohio
Citizen Corps; Ohio Department
of Public Safety-Emergency
Management Agency; Ohio In-
surance Institute; Ohio Depart-
ment of Commerce State Fire
Marshal; Ohio Departments of
Aging, Education, Health, Insur-
ance, Mental Health, Natural Re-
sources, and Transportation, and
WBNS-10TV.

winter weather safety and severe
weather preparedness, visit

We Can Recycle!
Mrs. Becky Suvar came to talk to the preschoolers at Paulding Elementary School about recycling. The preschoolers learned
how to recycle so they can help in their classrooms and at home. They also look forward to Wednesdays when Ms. Becky brings
her big cart to collect all of their recycling.
Fifth grade students in Mrs. Stouffer's science classes
recently did a lab examining the parts of different angiosperms
and gymnosperms using hand lenses. These Payne
Elementary students brought in a variety of specimens to
examine and then dissected the plants to see the individual
parts better with their hand lenses. They then used their results
to determine the type of seed that the plants developed from.

A Penny For
Your Thoughts....
By: Nancy Whitaker
LETS GET THE PARTY STARTED
If you are like me, you will
find any excuse to have a
party. I remember when I
was little, I would sit my doll
(I only had one) on a chair up
to a little table, set out my lit-
tle tea set and serve myself
and my doll water. To me that
was having a party.
When I started school,
there were all kinds of little
parties to celebrate the differ-
ent holidays. I remember
being in grade school and
having Halloween parties.
What fun it was to get dressed
up in a costume and parade
around to the other class-
rooms.
When I got a little older
and in high school, parties in-
cluded sock hops or a dance
of some kind. We all donned
our white bucks and poodle
skirts and jitterbugged to
Elvis, Jerry Lee and many
more. These dance parties
were usually held after a foot-
ball game whether the home
team won or lost.
The next round of parties I
got to organize and enjoy
were birthday parties for my
kids. Birthdays have always
been a big event at my house
with cake, balloons, games,
family, friends and gifts.
As a young housewife,
someone was always having
a tupperware party or a
Watkins product party. These
parties were designed not
only to see and buy items, but
to socialize as well.
To me, it is always fun to
wake up in the morning and
say, Gee, I get to go to a
party today. Yes, it still
makes me happy for any ex-
cuse to have or go to a party.
White elephant gift ex-
change parties are always a
lot of fun, especially at
Christmas. Of course you
dont know what you will get,
but the fun is in getting to-
gether with friends and fam-
ily and sharing memories and
mementoes.
Then there are lots of cele-
bration parties such as wedding
receptions, anniversary parties,
and New Years Eve parties.
As I stop and think about
parties, I think about family,
food, friends, and fun. Today, it
is fun and also convenient to
have a party at a fast food
restaurant or perhaps a pizza
place.
Surprise parties are also a
lot of fun. A few years ago,
my mama, who was in the
nursing home, planned a sur-
prise birthday party for me
and I must say I dont know
how she pulled it off.
I am a hard one to fool, but
she managed to have me go
to my daughters house and
when I got there, everyone
jumped out at me and yelled,
Surprise. They got me that
time.
Now, I am not a party ani-
mal, but I love to see family
and friends and celebrate. I
believe that all Americans
like parties and celebrations.
Whenever a holiday is ap-
proaching, even something
like the Super Bowl, you see
people in the stores getting
food and party supply items.
This always makes me happy,
because it lets me know that
regardless of things going on,
we all still love a party,
whether it be big or small.
Did you know? Ancient
Romans were the first to cel-
ebrate birthdays? They only
celebrated the mens though.
Those celebrating a 50th
birthday party would receive
a special cake made of wheat
flour, olive oil, honey and
grated cheese. All of this said,
female birthdays still werent
celebrated until around the
12th century. Oh please!
I do have one question. Do
you say, Lets get the party
started or Lets get the
paah-ty staa-ted?
As Thanksgiving and
Christmas approaches, take
time for God, family, friends,
food and enjoy any opportu-
nity to have, throw or go to a
party or a paah-ty.
Do you like parties? What
is your favorite holiday party
or get-together? Has anyone
ever surprised you with a
party? Let me know and Ill
give you a Penny for Your
Thoughts.

Division IV Football Playoffs
WT dominates Rams
By KEVIN
WANNEMACHER
Sportswriter
LIMA Wayne Trace needed
only 15 seconds to take control
of Fridays rematch with Tinora
in the Division VI, Region 20
regional semifinals at Lima Sta-
dium.
And the Raiders never let up
from there.
The red, white and blue made
a dominating statement victory
as Wayne Trace rolled past the
Rams 40-7 to advance to the re-
gional championship for the
first time in school history.
The Raiders, who move to
11-1 on the season, now ad-
vance to take on Ada on Friday
at Lima Stadium.
It was a statement win for the
Raiders.
I am just so proud of this
football team and the coaching
staff, the parents, fans, its a total
win for Wayne Trace, com-
mented Raider head coach Bill
Speller. Its one of if not the
biggest wins in school history
in football. Its our first time to
the regional finals and there
isnt a coaching staff or group of
players that deserve it more.
On the first play of the game,
Wayne Trace quarterback
Colby Speice found Korbin
Showalter for a 79-yard touch-
down pass that set the tone for
the rest of the evening.
That play was so big,
Speller noted. We came into the
game with two plays called and
it just depended on how they
lined up defensively. Tinora ac-
tually adjusted the way we
hoped they would and we were
able to take advantage.
The Rams never recovered
from the early deficit and Wayne
Trace didnt let up.
The Raiders widened the lead
to 16-0 with 1:34 left in the
opening stanza when Speice
again found Showalter, this time
on a 49-yard scoring strike.
Colby is just so smart and is
able to read things so well for
us, added the Raider mentor.
Speice finished the night 15 of
28 through the air for 319 yards
and four scores, but maybe just
as important was his footwork as
he worked his way out of nu-
merous potential sacks and kept
plays alive long after they ap-
peared to be broken down.
He played a heck of a game
tonight, continued Speller on
Speice. He did a good job of
taking care of the football and he
was able to make plays out of
nothing at times to keep drives
alive.
But Speice wasnt the only
Raider with a big game.
Showalter finished the night
with only six receptions, but to-
taled 205 yards and three scores.
We were able to take advan-
tage of our speed and Korbin
found a way to get free from the
defense, noted Wayne Traces
head coach. The turf was nice
to get on and we were able to ex-
ploit some things with our
speed.
Tinora did get within 16-7 late
in the first quarter, using a 35-
yard scamper by Riley Nagel to
get on the scoreboard. However,
the green and white would never
get any closer.
Wayne Trace responded with
a 14-yard touchdown toss by
Speice to Jake Arend at the 9:45
mark of the second quarter.
Just over two minutes later,
Speice found Showalter again
for a 43-yard touchdown pass
that seemingly sealed the victory
and gave the Raiders a 32-7
halftime advantage.
Anytime they were able to
come up with a big play, we
were able to answer and that was
key, said Speller. Whether it
be when they recovered a fum-
ble or they scored, our guys
made a play to keep momentum
on our side.
Wayne Trace picked up the
only score of the second half on
a five-yard plunge by Speice to
set the final margin at 40-7.
Its a big win for the pro-
gram, Speller added. We have
raised the bar at Wayne Trace
and now we have the chance to
continue to do that next week.
Well get back to work and get
ready for Ada.
Tinora, which closes at 10-2
on the season, posted 393
yards of total offense in the
contest. The Rams ran for
202 yards, led by 154 from
Nagel on 27 carries. Sopho-
more quarterback Brevin
Renollet was 15 of 27
through the air for 157 yards.
Kenny does a great job
over there and that is a pro-
gram we have a lot of respect
for, stated Speller. They
will be back. He runs a class
program and they have a lot
of kids back next year.
Wayne Trace finished the
night with 416 yards and to-
taled 19 first downs. Speice
and Jared Sherry ran for 49
and 45 yards, respectively.
We were able to establish
a running game tonight, con-
cluded Speller. We know
that the weather isnt always
going to be like this so we
have to be able to run the ball
to have success.
Next up for Wayne Trace is
co-Northwest Conference
champion Ada.
The Bulldogs have posted
wins over fellow NWC co-
champs Delphos Jefferson
and Crestview in the playoffs
by scores of 27-22 and 35-0.
