Canton dentist Dr. C. Clark Todd offered two lots once an apartment at the corner of Sixth and Clark Streets. That was accomplished before March 1. Demolition contrac-tor Bud Campbell brought composted hog manure and spread it on the site, and left a pile of bricks, which can be used to make pathways, or separate garden bed plots.
While the intention of a steering committee is to allow the plots to be used this spring for growing crops, there are several issues the commit-tee is still discussing. These include possible cost to par-ticipants (to pay for water on

Think you don’t need flood insurance?Add this valuable protection before its too late.Flooding can happen almost anywhere, any time. It might be the result of days of torrential rain. Or quickly melting snow. Or failed flood control structures like levees or dams.
But the majority of property owners’ policies do not include coverage for losses caused by flooding. That’s why American Family Insurance is a participating company in the National Flood Insurance Program. There’s a 30-day wait before a flood insurance policy takes effect, making it important to consider this coverage now.
So call or visit your American Family agent soon to see if you’re eligible to purchase this coverage. The weather won’t wait.
The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is managed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), a component of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

Mays was remanded to the custody of the United States Marshal at the sen-tencing and ordered to serve 18 months in the Bureau of Prisons, and given two years of super-vised release (parole) af-ter that.
Mays was ordered to not posses any fi rearm or weapon, cooperate in any DNA collection, partici-pate in an approved do-mestic violence program, not to patronize business-es where more than 50 percent of the revenue is from the sale of alcoholic beverages, submit to a mental health evaluation, and submit to searches of his person, residence, nearby structures, offi ce or vehicle, pay a $100 fi ne, and forfeit a Hi-point C9 pistol and ammuni-

In January, Mays fi led a civil rights violation law-suit in U.S. District Court, eastern District of Mis-souri, against he city of LaGrange and LaGrange Police Offi cer Doug How-ell and is seeking com-pensatory damages, puni-tive damage, and attorney fees.
A public appeal to seek commitments for turning a former Canton business building into a communi-ty center has fallen short in anticipated support.
The Canton Commu-nity Betterment Group was asking if the pub-lic would be willing to commit to a minimum of $6,500 of private funds to cover utilities for the two-story brick building at Fourth and Lewis Streets, which formerly housed the Saturday Store. Joe Clark, who chairs the CCBG, said early indi-cations show there was less than $5,000 that the people would be willing to commit to the project. The costs to maintain the building would likely

increase in subsequent years.
This means, barring a change before hand, an on-line auction will continue for two weeks, possibly starting in mid-April.
Had the commitment goal been reached, the building would be used as a “home” for the Can-ton Area Arts Council, and possibly various ser-vice clubs and would also be rented for receptions.
Clark said the CCBG will further develop a “plan B” at an early April meeting, if the building doesn’t sell at the on-line auction.
William and Lynn Fox recently donated the building after their move from Canton, Missouri to Canton New York several years ago.

Attention! Roll out—
not over, troops! The bugle calls
us to Gettysburg,
Pa., where we’ll meet Sallie and visit the site
of the most costly battle of the Civil War, in terms of casualties for the Confederacy and the Union. Gettysburg, July 1-3, 1863, was an ominous battle, and a low point for the South’s Gen. Lee. Though the war waged for two more years, Lee never again at-tempted to gain a northern stronghold, even though the South rallied again with some success, but eventually ran out of troops to serve.
Sallie, a brindle, Staffordshire bull ter-rier, is the only Civil War canine with enough clout to have her snout, and the rest of her, immortalized in a bronze statue at Gettysburg. Walt and I drove to Pennsylvania to see the hilly, rock-strewn battlefield. It was peaceful, the quiet broken only by birdsong and a packet of squirrels churning up the leaves.
Peaceful now, but not back in the day when two massive armies clashed, surprising one another at Gettys-burg. Reinforcements were called up, and the tug of war continued. On the third day of the battle, the South pulled out all the stops. Lee threw a desperate half-court shot, sending waves of Rebels directly into the Union’s artillery fire.
The South’s men splintered like tooth-picks. Defeated and dismayed, Lee was
forced to retreat. It’s hard to fathom, but the dead men carted away and the wounded men limping behind him formed a line of defeat that extended for miles.
Sallie saw it all—at Gettysburg you can read her dog-witness account. Sallie was a soldiers’ pet, a mascot of the 11th Penn-sylvania Volunteer Infantry.
The men got her as a pup, a roly-poly, feisty fighter, a loyal cur that cut her milk teeth on a saber. Sallie was a female, but she didn’t cater to women, to Rebels or Democrats. It was all military, “Yes, Sir,” for Sallie, a born and bred soldier from the get-go, a stalwart service-gal who as-signed herself to a particular soldier and dogged him day and night, even seem-ing to recognize the rank held by each soldier.
Sallie rose before the sun burned the dew off the grass, answering the bugle for roll call and flag raising. She barked inces-
santly at the sight of a Rebel—as she raced ahead with her men, smack into the heat of battle.
Adored and ad-mired, the ol’ girl was good company for the soldiers too, and helped them real-ize if she could survive being wounded twice and come back for more, they could too. As the war raged on, soldiers of the North and South needed all the encourage-
ment they could get. The men were ex-hausted and missed home, but Sallie’s home was standing guard outside a tent of whatever infantryman she’d adopted for the night.
Stalwart and unflinching, Sallie braved the battles of Antietam, Fredericksburg
and Chancellorsville. At Gettysburg, President Lincoln acknowledged her with a military salute.
During the battle at Gettysburg, Sallie lost her bearings. She became separated from her regiment, and the men feared she’d been struck or captured.
Not scrappy Sallie. She was found tend-ing the wounded and watching over her deceased Union friends, not allowing anyone, Confederate or Union, to get near them. That was Sallie, a soldier to the end—an end that came in 1865 dur-ing the siege of Petersburg, Va.
Descendents of the Pennsylvania regi-ment wanted Sallie to be remembered. A replica of her resides at Gettysburg; her proud head rests on her paws as her brown eyes gaze in watch of approaching Rebels, ever faithful Sallie, a heroine for the ages.

There is a new get-thin-quick infomercial that is now being advertised with the term “muscle confu-sion.” Of course, EVERY-ONE who uses said prod-uct not only loses much weight, many of them get the stomach wrinkles indi-cating the presence of abs.
(By the way, why do we never hear of a cream to lose those nasty deep stomach ridges caused by losing weight and com-monly called “ripped abs”)?
The point is the term being used is “muscle confusion.” Supposedly, it works something like this. For a few days you lift weights, then for a few days you run mul-tiple short distance wind sprints - say from Lewis County to Cleveland - then for a few days you do weird pushups where you sway your body forward at the time you are pinch-ing a two-liter soda bottle between your knees, all to work different muscles. The next time, you do gymnastics, such as the one-handed rings.
Well no wonder the muscle is confused, but for most normal people, isn’t the tendency for confused muscles to say “forget it.” We’ll try again the next time you make a New Year’s resolution?”
Of course you have to order this 213 CD set that tells you how to do a dif-ferent exercise each week, and of course you have to pay for it.
Maybe this program works, but for one anony-
Words have been de-scribed in a million dif-ferent ways. Some, like myself, believe they are a breath of life while oth-ers don’t hold them to as high a regard, but no mat-ter how a person regards words, virtually everyone must use them on a daily basis. What makes words so entertaining to me is the different ways people use them.
As I was having a “Girls Day Out” with a friend and her seven-year-old daughter, we began to dis-cuss my Valentine’s pres-ent from my husband, a Malshi puppy named Ry-ley. The more I spoke, the more confused the young girl seemed to look. We were simply talking about my puppy, so I couldn’t understand why she ap-peared as though I were speaking in another lan-guage to her. It wasn’t until she leaned over and asked her mom a question that I realized the source of her confusion. “Mom, what is a ‘dawg’?”
After having been here for around six or so months, I’d come to the conclusion that my speech wasn’t all that different from everyone else around this area, so I hadn’t worried as much about the way I said par-

mous columnist “muscle confusion has had little benefi t. Said columnist will watch a TV program and suddenly decide to jog around the block. The muscles say “Hey, what’ going on? We thought you were watching Walton’s TV show 48-hour mara-thon. We were comfort-able in the recliner.”
Or when he suddenly decides to lift a set of en-cyclopedias to carry them upstairs, the muscles in the arms, legs, and gluteus maxis say “You’ll hear from us tomorrow.”
And there is nothing like tossed salad, with a triple fudge brownie for dessert or a deluxe mega cheese-burger and a Diet Coke to create muscle confusion. Shouldn’t the muscles be mature enough to fi gure it out for themselves which are nutrients and which can be properly disposed? Better yet, isn’t there some canceling out of the good and bad foods?
Maybe the columnist is going about this the wrong way, but he already has ac-tive muscle confusion, but it’s not leading to ripped abs.
ticular words. But young Patton’s question made me think, ‘What else do I say that sounds ‘funny’ to the residents around Lew-is County?’
I believe in always say-ing ‘Yes ma’am’ and ‘No sir.’ If I know a person’s last name, I call them by Mr./Mrs./Miss and their last name, and when I don’t know their last name, I ad-dress women by calling them Miss and then saying their fi rst name. Almost all my ‘O’s’ are ‘AW’s’ and when I pronounce anything with an ‘I’ in it, the letter seems to drag on for days. And “Bless her heart” is in almost every sentence I speak.
I’m sure there are a multitude of other ran-dom things I say that take Lewis Co. residents by surprise, but as long as they can understand me, I believe I’ll do just fi ne.

Canton board of alder-man passed a lengthy or-dinance Monday night. The ordinance, regard-ing Canton being a fl ood plain and defi ning the boundaries and terms, is required by the federal government so residents may purchase fl ood in-surance.
The dramatic arrest of an Omaha, Neb. man Thursday morning, Mar. 12, in Canton turned out to be an over-exagger-ation from fi rst reports. According to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Depart-ment, a hitch-hiker, who the Missouri state Patrol identifi ed as Daniel Pat-rick Demskie, has been picked up by George Knott. Knott reportedly left Demskie at a truck stop without unloading. Demskie is said to have reported to authorities that Knott had an au-tomatic weapon in the truck, and was wanted for murder and robbery.

Colorectal cancer is one cancer a person can prevent. That’s why the American Cancer Soci-ety recommends screen-ing for everyone age 50 and above, but most local physicians recommend screenings starting at age 40 due to increased num-ber of diagnoses in young-er patients.

form must be signed. After completing the
screening, drop off or mail back the kit (per instruc-tions) to learn if there is a risk of colorectal cancer.
The best method to de-tect colorectal cancer is a colonoscopy. The screen-ing kit is a fi rst step in maintaining colon health and is not intended as a substitute for a colonos-copy.

Many Christmas trees have been collected during the eighth annual Christmas tree recycling program. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is now seeking volun-teers to place the trees at several established sites in Mark Twain Lake. John F. Spalding and South Fork Boat Ramps have been designated as the starting points.
Residents of the Mark Twain Lake community will-ing to contribute their time and equipment to assist the Corps in placing the trees can meet at either the John F. Spalding or South Fork boat ramp on Saturday, March 31, 2012 at 9:00 a.m. The trees will be bundled together and sunk in Mark Twain Lake, developing an underwa-ter habitat. These structures provide excellent places for fi sh to rest. Creating this structure also encourages the growth of algae and zooplankton for young fi sh to feed upon, which in turn enhances growth. Of course the biggest advantage is they make excellent places to catch fi sh, and all those volunteering will have fi rst-hand knowledge of these “honey holes”.
Anyone wishing to volunteer or wanting more infor-mation should contact Brad Stamp at the Mark Twain Lake Project Offi ce at (573) 735-4097.

Cattlemen build leadership potential at annual MCA Co. Leadership Conference
Th e Missouri Cattlemen’s Association hosted cattle industry leaders February 28-29 for its annual County Leadership Conference. Attendees learned about the day-to-day operations of Missouri Cattle-men’s Association, Missouri’s Cattlemen Foundation and the Missouri Beef Industry Council.
Professional sessions were also hosted to teach leaders how to communicate eff ectively with media, build membership and stay current on MCA legisla-tive priorities. Attendees traveled to Jeff erson City to visit with their respective legislators at the State Capi-tol and voice their concerns on government regula-tions. Cattlemen enjoyed the opportunity to discuss the importance of their business, the association and their livelihood in agriculture.
“It’s important for our representatives to hear di-rectly from producers on hot topics,” said MCA Ex-ecutive Vice President Jeff Windett. “Bringing cattle-men into the Capitol helps MCA eff ectively carry our message to those decision-makers and truly empha-sizes our adherence to grassroots policy.”
Participants of the 2012 MCA Leadership Con-ference were Jim Baumann, Monroe County; Taylor
Braungardt, Pike & Lincoln Counties; Grady Flower, Benton County; Robert Fodge, Monroe County; Ron Gould, South Central Cattlemen; Corey Hudson, Missouri State FFA Offi cer; Sandy Knipp, Moniteau County; Daniel Knust, Dallas County; Dennis & Sher-ry Lynch, Douglad County; Brad McCord, Moniteau County; Dan McCutchan, Lewis & Marion Coun-ties; Kenneth Meyer, Jasper County; Randy Meyers, Audrain County; Bruce Noble, Boone County; Bart Renkoski, Southwest Cattlemen; Gary Rook, South-west Cattlemen; Adam & Kate Welker, Bates County; and Cole Wyble, Pike & Lincoln Counties.
McDonald’s Restaurants of Joplin, Mid-Missouri & the Ozarks sponsored the event alongside the Mis-souri Beef Industry Council, Missouri Corn Growers Association and the Missouri Soybean Association.
Th e Missouri Cattlemen’s Association was initi-ated in 1911 and is dedicated to improving viability of Missouri’s beef industry. MCA is celebrating its 101st year serving as the voice of Missouri’s 60,000 beef producers. Contact MCA at 573-499-9162 or at www.mocattle.com.

Legendary trombonist & pianist featured guests at C-SC Jazzfest
Culver-Stockton College will host the 15th annual JazzFest March 22 inside the Robert W. Brown Performing Arts Center. This day-long concert event begins at 9 a.m. with adjudicated high school jazz ensembles performing every half-hour. The event closes with an evening concert beginning at 7:30 p.m. featuring legendary trombonist Bob Havens and pianist Ken Kehner along with the C-SC Jazz Ensemble, under the direction of Dr. Tom Polett.
Trombonist Bob Havens is an American big band and jazz musician who appeared on “The Lawrence Welk Show” from 1960 to1982. Born to a musical family in Quincy, Ill., he began studying violin and trombone at age seven and played both instruments throughout his school years. By the age of 16, his talent as a trombonist was recognized with a scholarship from the Interlochen Music Camp in Michigan.
He continued to be a free-lance professional working often with the Bob Crosby Bob Cats and the Benny Goodman Orchestra (led by clarinetist Peanuts Hucko). From 1985 to 1995, Havens played with the Great Pacifi c Jazz Band along with Bob Ringwald, Don Nelson, and Zeke Zarchy.
In 2005, he performed with the North Carolina Pops Orchestra at Campbell University with fellow Welk star Ava Barber for a benefi t raising money for victims of Hurricane Katrina. He continues to record and appear at jazz festivals and concerts throughout the world.
The evening concert is open to the public, for ticket information contact the Division of Fine Arts at (573) 288-6346.

For the fi rst time in Garrett Spurgeon’s young shoot-ing career, he had the opportunity to shoot in his fi rst
O l y m p i c Q u a l i f y i n g Team Trials.
The fi rst of the qualifying matches was held in Annis-ton, Ala., the fi rst weekend of Decem-ber. Spurgeon went into the match touted as one of the top college rifl e recruits of the 2012 senior class. S p u r g e o n fi nished the fi rst day of competition with a new
Spurgeon Firing His Way to the Topperson best of 590 of 600 possible, which put him into the fi nals match that would include past Olym-pians, as well as some of the top shooting athletes of the United States. Gar-rett held his own, with a 102.3 fi nal and in seventh place over all. The second day of competition, Garrett fi nished with a 587/600, not making fi nals but still a very solid performance.
The second qualify-ing test came Feb. 25 and 26 in Campy Perry, Ohio. Garrett and another young man from Kentucky were the only juniors with a pos-sible shot at making the Olympic Air Rifl e quali-fying list. USA Shooting rules require that they have to have minimum of eight spots on the qualifying list.
In case of injury, or ill-ness, the Olympic com-mittee would be able to fi ll that position.
Garrett fi nished the fi rst day again with another personal best of 591/600 and another fi nals match. The second day of com-petition proved to be a battle, as the 10’s were not coming as easy, but he still fi nished strong with a 584/600. This left Garrett with a slim lead on the ninth position and it would take the fi nals of the second day to decide the fi nish.
After the scores were tallied, 18-year-old Gar-rett Spurgeon, a senior at Canton R-V High School, held the eighth position of the 2012 USA Olympic Air Rifl e qualifying list. GARRETT SPURGEON
