Division IV Football Playoffs
Raiders off
to Lima
By KEVIN
WANNEMACHER
Sportswriter
After a two-hour trip down U.S. 30 to North Robinson, Wayne
Trace will again travel down the four-lane highway on Friday
night as the Raiders make the trek to Lima.
Green Meadows Conference rivals Wayne Trace and Tinora
will square off in the Division VI, Region 20 semifinals at Lima
Stadium on Friday night.
Both the Rams and Raiders come into the contest at 10-1 on the
season with a berth in the Region 20 championship on Nov. 22 on
the line.
We are happy to be playing in Lima, noted Raider head coach
Bill Speller. Its a great stadium for a football game and we are
very pleased to have the opportunity to play there on Friday.
Wayne Trace comes into the contest looking for redemption
after dropping a 27-16 decision to the green and white in week
eight of the regular season.
Wear and tear on fields is always a concern this time of year
and its nice to play on artificial turf, continued Speller. We
know both teams are going to come in ready to play and each team
will have some wrinkles they bring into the contest.
The Raiders and Rams will square off at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
Presale tickets are available for Wayne Trace from 7:30 a.m.
until 12:30 p.m. Wednesday through Friday. Tickets are also avail-
able Thursday evening from 6 p.m. until 8 p.m.

Season of Giving
Hundreds
of children,

area holiday
projects
By NANCY WHITAKER
Progress Staff Writer
For many, the coming of
Thanksgiving initiates the
special time of giving for the
Christmas season. Each year
the crunch gets harder on
families as they battle record
unemployment and a floun-
dering economy. This year
changes have been made and
the Christmas for Kids pro-
gram is a project of NOCAC.
Numerous projects are
going on in our county this
year. Please give generously
to make the holidays a
brighter season for all.

PAULDING In
November 2012, renovations
for the updated and enlarged
Paulding County Hospital
Emergency Department
began.
The first phase of the proj-
ect involved enlarging the
ER and doing some renova-
tions before moving it to the
east wing.
Once the move took place,
the construction and renova-
tion continued on the exist-
ing ER. The work took about
three months. It was then
that the ER moved back and
the east wing was then reno-
vated to house the testing
laboratory.
Once the lab moved to
their new home, the ER con-
struction expanded to the old
lab area. The total construc-
tion took about a year to
complete. It is important to
note is that the lab draw sta-
tion will remain in the main
outpatient area for patient
convenience, but pneumatic
tubes will connect the draw
station and the ER to the
testing lab for faster result
time.
The last ER renovation,
done in the early 1980s,
featured five patient rooms.
The current renovation fea-
tures a U-shaped nurses sta-
tion with seven rooms sur-
rounding it. The line of sight
makes it possible for nursing
and physicians to see pa-
tients which is an additional
bonus.
Two large trauma rooms
have fold back glass walls
between them making one
large trauma room if needed.
This can be used if an
emergency requires that
medical staff needs to be
close to multiple patients.
Also added in the last
phase is some much needed
storage room and an area
where local EMS personnel
can chart and make notes
concerning their patients.
Another addition was a
patient lift that was installed
that will help with patients
that are difficult to move.
The total emergency de-
partment space is now 3,400
square feet. The renovation
added an additional 1,000
square feet to the emergency
department. The project was
budgeted at $1,221,701 and
will be coming in at approx-
imately $60,000 under
budget. No funds will be so-
licited from the community
as the project was funded
with operational dollars. No
loans were taken to com-
plete the project during the
course of the project, the
hospital went debt free to
demonstrate to the commu-
nity that dollars generated
here will be invested back
into the community.
In a ceremony held Thursday, Nov. 7 the Paulding County
Hospital received the Governors Proclamation. Pictured is
Chase Eikenbary, the Northwest Ohio liaison for Governor
Kasich, presenting the award to Gary Adkins, CEO of Paulding
County Hospital. This honor goes to businesses that go above
and beyond when it comes to expanding and developing serv-
ices. This was awarded for the recently completed new ER ad-
dition.
Oakwood council working on budget
By BILL SHERRY
Correspondent
OAKWOOD The Oakwood council met
Nov. 11 in the village council chambers.
Mayor Erhard(Bud)Henke told the finance
committee, EMS coordinator Chad Brown,
and the fire department that the budget for 2014
has to be ready to be acted on at the next coun-
cil meeting.
Henke also advised the EMS and the fire de-
partment to put together an aid package and get
it presented to the townships and villages that
use the Oakwood services. F i s c a l
officer Susan Barron advised the contracts ex-
pire on Jan. 1, so they needed to be completed
before the end of the year.
Lillie Porter represented the Black Swamp
Tractor and Engine Club and inquired about
using the Oakwood pulling track for a tractor
pull on June 7, 2014. It was noted that
this is the organization that presents the tractor
pull each year at the Oakwood Homecoming
and village administrator John Keyes com-
mented, They always leave things in immacu-
late condition. The pull was approved. Keyes
and Mike Porter will work together to get
everything needed.
Council president Todd Dangler inquired
about the village cell phones that were pur-
chased a few years ago. He thought it may be
time to upgrade the phones as the cost would be
minimal and village employees would have
good working cell phones to use for village
functions. Keyes will get a price quote.
Several questions were raised tonight and in-
cluded:
Councilwoman Heather Huff asked, Why
doesnt the water tower have lights on top for
aircraft?
The general consensus was that it was not

The Amish Cook
By: Lovina Eicher
Amish authors just dont get
all the facts of Amish life
right.
Sunday, my boyfriend,
Moses parents, had church
services at their house. They
live 21 miles from here so I
went to their house Saturday
night. Brother Benjamin and
sister Loretta went with me.
Benjamin is friends with
Moses brother, Freeman, and
Loretta with his sister, Linda.
Mose and I went over to his
sister Hannahs house on Sat-
urday night. They have two
little boys and an eight-
month-old girl. She is such a
sweetie!
Dad and Joseph went hunt-
ing tonight. One of the calves
decided to slip out of the calf
pen. We had quite a chase to
get it back in. Elizabeth, Ver-
ena, Benjamin, Kevin, Mom
and I were all trying to round
it back into the pen. I imagine
we looked kind of funny as
that calf seemed to slip be-
tween two of us every time.
We made sure Benjamin
wired the cattle panel shut
where it squeezed out.
Little Prancer is growing
fast. He is a cutie. He is get-
ting fat though, so I try to ex-
ercise him. I love that little
pony. I have taught him some
tricks, but it takes a lot of pa-
tience. We are glad to have
Prancers mother, Minnie,
back here for keeps.
Mose has been spending a
lot of time hunting. He wants
Its Wednesday evening
and it has really warmed up.
Temperature is in the 60s. I
am finally having my garage
sale on Friday and Saturday.
Every time I wanted to have
it something else more impor-
tant came up.
Daughter Susan wrote the
column for me today while I
went to a quilting. I was sur-
prised and relieved that I did-
nt have to squeeze that in
yet.
I would also like to men-
tion that I had a visit from
cousin Fern and her daughter
Tricia recently. Was nice vis-
iting with them.
Dear Readers,
Hi, how are you all doing?
This is Susan. Mom is pretty
busy this week, so I decided
to surprise her and write the
column for her. She is a great
mother.
This week has pretty much
been spent getting ready for a
garage sale. I was sorting
through our books to see
which ones we want to sell. I
kept all the books that had
facts about horses. I love
reading those and learning
new things about horses.
My dream is to one day
write a book. I have all kinds
of short stories I have written.
My favorite authors are
Karen Kingsbury and Linda
Byler. I just started reading
Linda Bylers books and I can
tell she is an Amish author.
Other books written by non-
me to go deer hunting with
him one day. I told him Ill go
if I can take a book along to
read. He said if I do, I have to
turn the pages really quietly.
I like giving him a hard time.
Last year when I went
hunting with him my feet
were so cold, so he gave me
some heat packs to put in my
boots. Those helped a lot.
We plan to bake some
bread, rolls, etc. to sell at the
garage sale. Tomorrow will
be a busy day doing that and
organizing everything. We
also need to do laundry.
Sunday Mose and I plan to
go to another church district
as his friend, Chris, will start
following instructions for
baptism.

In The
Garden
Leaves: The gift that keeps on giving
leaves with the mower and
add them to the compost bin.
Chopped leaves will decom-
pose faster than intact ones
and by the time spring rolls
around, weve got some
pretty good stuff to add to the
soil. We also use some of
those chopped leaves as
mulch in the fall, placing it
around trees and shrubs.
Fallen leaves are important
to the ecosystem in other
ways. Have you ever noticed
the ladybugs present in large
numbers under the leaves
when you clean them from
your flower beds in the
spring? Thats where theyve
spent the winter. Other in-
sects do the same. Some but-
terfly caterpillars will wrap
themselves up in leaves in the
fall and stay there until
spring.
Consider these things when
youre cleaning up your yard
and your gardens this fall.
Use them for good and leave
some of them for our insect
friends.

left with an equally colorful
carpet on the lawn floor.
Fallen leaves can be a good
thing for our gardens and
even the lawn itself, but you
can have too much of a good
thing. Too many larger leaves,
and smaller plants get smoth-
ered and fungus grows. Ive
seen it happen in my own gar-
den. So whats a person to do
with all those leaves?
Open burning isnt allowed
in most areas and for health
reasons it isnt advisable to
burn leaves anyway. The
smoke contains carcinogens.
And burning them would be a
waste of a perfectly good or-
ganic material that can be
used to enrich our lawns and
our gardens.
Personally, we chop the
Few would dispute that
were experiencing one of the
most colorful fall seasons in
recent history. I see comment
after comment on Facebook
and Twitter talking about it
and numerous photos provide
the visual proof to the rest of
the world that the trees and
shrubs are about as gaudy as
it gets here in northwest Ohio.
Ive been asked just what it
is about this fall that makes
the colors so much more vi-
brant than in those past. The
process that produces color in
leaves is called senescence.
Changes in both day length
and temperature trigger its be-
ginning, and the trees stop
producing chlorophyll, which
gives the leaves their charac-
teristic green color.
Without chlorophyll, the
green disappears and the yel-
lows and oranges, which were
there all along, remain. Red
color is another matter and
the mechanism for its appear-
ance is not entirely under-
stood.
Though some red is present
in certain leaves, it is mostly
produced as a stress response,
and serves as a kind of sun-
screen for the leaves. It al-
lows them to remain on the
tree a little longer, perhaps so
the tree can continue to gather
nutrients to help it through the
winter. We dont really know
for sure.
Why one years colors are
superior to anothers is related
to that seasons weather. The
seasons rainfall (or lack of it)
plays a part, but when we
have an autumn that has cool
nights without frost combined
with sunny days, we get the
most vibrant shades of color.
Thats exactly what happened
this year.
The winds of the past week
have done a pretty good job
of stripping the trees of their
colorful array of leaves and
those of us with a fair number
of trees on our property are

was recently completed. The
feasibility study includes bring-
ing high speed internet, tele-
phone service, and cable TV to
the residents of Payne. Right
now we have no commitment
from Time Warner but they
have commented how things
are looking favorable, said
Smith.
Police Chief Rodney Miller
reported Officer Chris Fisher, a
15 year veteran of the force, has
resigned from the police depart-
ment. Right now we will con-
tinue to operate with the current
force and will possibly look to
fill the position in 2014, said
Chief Miller.
Mayor Smith announced that
the Village was awarded a
$20,500 Community Develop-
ment Block Grant. The monies
will be used to upgrade the rest-
rooms making them ADA com-
pliant at the current Antwerp
Exchange Bank. The location
will become the home of the
Village offices once the new
bank facility is constructed.
EMS Chief Joe Garmyn
shared his written report for the
month of October. During the
month the EMS made 13 runs
for a yearly total of 162.
Leaf pickup has started and
will continue until leaves are
down. Leaves must be placed at
the property line near the street
but not in the street for easy ac-

Linda and I headed off to
Jewell, Ohio for the benefit
of Tracy (Weidenhamer)
Gerken.
We didnt have any idea
where the Jewell Commu-
nity Center was, but we were
pretty sure we could find it.
The parking lot was full and
the center had standing room
only. At the door was Tracy
with that great smile of hers,
nothing seems to get her
down, not even the dreadful
disease MS she is fighting.
The food was great and
there were many, many do-
nated items for the auction
from friends and local busi-
ness and a great deal from
Paulding businesses. Many
pockets opened for the
Gerken family that night.
The greatest part of the
night was when Tracy sur-
prised everyone by getting
up out of her wheelchair and
walked across the room with
the help of her walker and
therapist. Believe me, when
I tell you, there was not a
dry eye in the place.
The only thing I dont un-
derstand is who the benefit,
benefited the most, Tracy or
the ones there to support her.
It was hard to tell.
If you ever have the
chance to attend a benefit to
help some one in need
please go, your heart will
feel so good!

Shop local
Dear Editor,
Shop local is all about
promoting and supporting
locally-owned, independent
businesses. Its about fueling
our local economy and help-
ing to preserve our town.
The national initiative, the
3/50 Project inspires us all to
patronize our local busi-
nesses. We all know of busi-
nesses and services in our
community that we would
Attending a benefit
Dear Editor,
On Sat. Nov. 2 my grand-
daughter Kaitlynn, my friend
miss if they were not here
tomorrow. The 3/50 Project
reminds us all to spend our
money locally. By spending
just $50 altogether per
month in three local busi-
nesses you help to keep that
business in town. You dont
have to spend $50 in each,
just $50 total at all three.
Civil economics says that
$.68 of every dollar spent at
a locally owned business is
reinvested locally. When
only $.43 of every dollar
spent at a regional or na-
tional chain stay local.
Locally owned businesses
build strong neighborhoods
by sustaining communities,
linking neighbors. They con-
tribute to local causes, show-
ing their commitment to us,
so make a commitment to
your community and shop
local!

YOUR ELECTRIC BILL
Reduce or eliminate your electric bill.
Solar electric systems in Ohio are very produc-
tive. Our own system has produced 35% more
than expected. For the past 15 months, our
electric bill has been "ZERO".
We have installed systems in Paulding,
Van Wert, Payne, Ottawa, and Lima.
Incentives are great!
It is possible to receive up to 64% of the total
system cost. ROI should be under 5 years for
businesses and farms.
An installation in Van Wert is expecting their
ROI in 3 to 4 years. The solar
panels should last for 30 years.
Think of the savings!

COLUMBUS Ohio veter-
ans who served during the
time of the Persian Gulf War
have until Dec. 31, 2013 to
apply for the Ohio Veterans
Bonus and receive the thank
you for their service awarded
them by Ohios citizens.
The Ohio Veterans Bonus
continues for veterans of the
Iraq War, who have until Dec.
31, 2014 to apply. No deadline
has been announced for veter-
ans of the Afghanistan War
and all veterans who served
after October 7, 2001.
The Ohio Veterans Bonus is
open to veterans of the Persian
Gulf War era as well as the
eras of the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan, regardless of
where they served. However,
the amount available is higher
to those who served directly in
the war zones. It is also open
to the next of kin of those who
were killed in action or died of
disease as a result of in-theater
service.
The bonus is not subject to
federal or state taxes, and can
be used for any purpose.
For application criteria, more
information or to apply: call 1-
877-OHIO VET (1-877-644-
6838) option 2 or visit any
county veteran service office
(see www.ohiovet.gov for an
interactive map of the county
offices). These offices can also
provide information about all
federal and state veterans
benefits, and assist veterans in
the application process.
The department also pro-
vides information about the
bonus through its social media
and at veterans events, and
has advertised the program in
print and broadcast media, as
well as in veterans publica-
tions and a mailing to veterans
whose service likely occurred
during the Persian Gulf era.
HOMESPUN
By
JIM LANGHAM
The blessing of
unexpected apples
but told me that her husband
had thrown them out and she
hoped that I would find some-
thing.
Thinking of grandmas way
of savoring everything, I had
no question that I would. In
the spirit of sugar plumbs
dancing in my dreams, I pic-
tured apples and peanut butter
and sundry other goodies as I
tossed them into my sack.
Here, said a voice over
my shoulder. I looked up and
there she stood with a huge
peck sack of beautiful apples.
Why dont you take
these? We dont need them
and they are much better. We
arent going to use them,
What a precious unex-
pected provisional gift from
the Giver of Gifts a few days
ago. I was driving down State
Line Road north of Dixon
and my eyes caught the
glimpse of a pile of discarded
apples in the field.
Instinctively, based on
childhood vibes, I turned
around and went back to what
we always called a pile of
cut ups had been discarded
in the field.
When I was a child, we sal-
vaged everything; often, I
would sit by the kitchen table
and cut off bad spots of ap-
ples with my grandma as we
saved what would often be-
come a great Dutch apple pie
or apple crisp. We would core
and save the good parts, even
if was only a fourth of an
apple.
As I kicked through the ap-
ples and picked up salvage-
able ones to place in a plastic
bag, I noticed that the
farmers wife across the road
was working in her yard.
Presently, I approached and
asked if she minded if I
picked through them.
She seemed a bit surprised,
said the lady, graciously.
What a beautiful provision.
In addition, Ive been re-
minded several things hap-
pened simultaneously. I had
the opportunity to meet a
wonderful rural person and
she was given the blessing of
giving the apples away, and I
to receive.
I nearly choked in grati-
tude. It reminded me of the
days when we picked up ap-
ples in our backyard and cut
them for goodies for the
evening meal around our
table, not to mention deli-
cious home-made applesauce.
Over 60 years ago, as a
child, I was taught to salvage
every little thing. Now, while
picking through apples in a
rural field, we were given
food, provision for us to eat,
lots of it. Again, I am re-
minded of the verse in James
1 in the Bible, Every good
and perfect gift comes down
from Heaven, from the Father
of lights.
Beyond our family and
friends, I have no question
about what one of my first
praises will be this Thanks-
giving.

A Penny For
Your Thoughts....
By: Nancy Whitaker
What kind of things did
you do as a kid? Were so ma-
ture now and so much wiser.
We now have real and differ-
ent issues to deal with and de-
cisions to make, now that we
are all grown up.
Sometimes when we enter
adulthood, our lives become
too busy, too controversial,
too fast-paced, too boring, too
exciting or just plain
mediocre.
When I became an adult,
there were lots of child-like
things I did as a kid that I just
laid aside. However, for the
sake of my own personal
sanity, there are plenty of
things I still should do and
some habits that I cant let go
of. If your life beomes too-
too anything, try these things
you may have done as a kid
and things you can still do
now even if you are older and
wiser.
Sometimes it is just good to
go out with a friend or rela-
tive and just act goofy and
have fun. Go cruising around
the downtown area, stop in at
a local ice-cream shop and eat
a double hot-fudge sundae or
run into a local store and try
on and model hats. Just for
fun.
Another fun thing to do is
to watch a Disney movie,
tearing up and singing along
to the songs and wanting to
be Cinderealla or Snow
White..
In the winter, get excitedfor
that first snow. Grab your
coat, run outside, stick out
your tongue and taste the
fluffly flakes as they fall from
the sky.
If it is autumn, step into a
pile of fresh leaves and if you
can get down, lie in them and
listen as they crackle.
In the summer, sit on the
front stoop and eat a popsicle
or ice cream bar.
In the spring, whistle back
at a song bird and see if he
will return your whistle. Even
better yet, pick a dandelion
and put it under your chin to
see if you like butter.
Anything that lets you
enjoy the changing of a new
season in the way you did as
a kid may just bring back a
feeling of youthfulness.
As a teen, I used to have a
crush on Elvis Presley. I read
everything about him and lit-
terally drooled at his singing.
I still like Elvis and I still play
and sing his songs over and
over. This was a teen crush,
but I still remember him
today.
Have you ever made a tent
out of a blanket? Now, that I
havent done lately, but me
and my kids used to do it and
oh what fun we had.
Bake cupcakes for no rea-
son at all is fun to do and who
doesnt like cupcakes?
One thing I still do and
sometimes have the help of
my co-workers is singing the
archi Bunker theme song,
Movn on Up. It makes you
feel good and it is fun to see
if you can recall the lyrics.
This one I hide and do. I
dance in my pajamas with a
hairbrush as a microphone
and sing to the top of my
lungs. What fun. I act like I
am a singing star.
Spend a Saturday afternoon
in your pajamas watching
television because you want
to and it is fun and relaxing.
Try to learn a new dance or
an old one. Practice and look
in the mirror at the same time.
Yes, I did this as a kid too.
Put your hair in a pony tail
or on top of your head and
walking around like that.
I know we are to put awa
childish things when we are
adults, but there are some
things that you can still do
that you may have done as a
kid.
What kind of things did
you do as a kid? What things
do you still do today that
makes you feel good on the
inside? Have you ever done
any of these things? Let me
know and Ill give you a
Penny for Your thoughts.
Winning the Battle for a Generation
By Rick Jones
exec. director, Defiance
Area Youth for Christ
To whom have I shown
my gratitude?
Some 30 years ago the
Lord laid upon my heart one
Christmas Eve to write a note
of thanks to an uncle who had
greatly impacted my life. My
uncle was touched by this act
of showing gratitude.
There are many ways to ex-
press our gratitude. There are
thank-you notes, cards, mes-
sages, but few would rise to
the experience of thanksgiv-
ing like a missionary had in
Tibet.
In 1921, Dr. Albert Shelton
wrote an account of his serv-
ice as a missionary in Tibet.
Walking along the road one
day, he met an old couple.
When they saw him, they got
down on the side of the road
and began bumping their
heads on the ground as a sign
of humility. Shelton told them
to get up, that he did not
allow anyone to bow before
him.
Then they brought him an
old rooster, a dirty piece of
butter and six eggs and re-
minded the doctor their son
had been severely injured in
an accident. The doctor had
operated on him and saved
his life. They had come to
thank him. They had walked
five days just to say, Thank
you.
Regarding being thankful,

Operation Christmas Child
packing shoeboxes
PAULDING With holi-
day supplies already covering
the store shelves, Paulding in-
dividuals, families, churches
and groups are working to
make Christmas a reality for
needy kids around the world
by filling shoeboxes with
toys, school supplies, hygiene
items and notes of encourage-
ment.
Operation Christmas Child,
the worlds largest Christmas
project of its kind, is ramping
up as Paulding residents pre-
pare to collect 200 gift-filled
shoeboxes during National
Collection Week (Nov. 18
25).
The collection site for
Paulding is the Church of the
Nazarene, 210 Dooley Drive.
Operating hours are Mon-
day - Friday, Nov. 18 22, 4
p.m. - 7 p.m.; Saturday, Nov.
23, 10 a.m. - 3 p.m.; Sunday
Nov. 24, 12 p.m. - 4 p.m.; and
Monday, Nov. 25, 12:30 p.m.
- 2 p.m.
At this local collection site
in the Paulding area, anyone
can drop off a gift-filled shoe-
box to send to a child over-
seas. Then using whatever
means necessary, trucks,
trains, boats, bikes and even
elephants, the shoebox gifts
will be delivered to children
worldwide.
For many children, the shoe-
box gift will be the first gift
they have ever received.
Though the shoebox gifts
will often travel thousands of
miles, Operation Christmas
Child offers a way for partic-
ipants to follow their box by
using the donation form
found at samaritanspurse.org.
Donors will receive an email
telling the country where
their shoeboxes are delivered.

Read Historical Books Online!
Your public library considers e-books an-
other format, just like paperbacks, hardbacks
and books recorded on Playaways and CD.
Public libraries take these new formats in
stride. So, if a patron has a Kindle or other
electronic book reader, they can simply bor-
row eBooks from the library, just like they
would borrow any other book. The link to the
librarys eBook collection is available from
the librarys website, www.pauldingcountyli-
brary.org. Providing access to eBooks is just
another way your public library saves you
money. Why purchase your books from Ama-
zon when you can borrow them from the li-
brary?
As exciting as the new eBook format may
have seemed five years ago, it is old news
now. But, something that continues to excite
us is the full-text historical books that are
being provided free of charge to everyone!
Project Gutenberg
(http://www.gutenberg.org) provides access to
over 42,000 free eBooks. A reader may
choose to download them to their reader, or
they can read them online. The only caveat to
this wonderful service is that the reader must
have a computer or reader in order to access
these materials.
That is where your library comes in again.
Each library location in Paulding County has
public computers with high-speed internet ac-
cess. You simply need a library card in good
standing to use the computers. Whether you
use your own home computer, or the librarys
public computers, please check out the Project
Gutenberg site.
In October of this year, the 1810 publica-
tion, Franklins Way to Wealth, was added to
the digital collection. This essay was a com-
pilation made in 1758 of wise adages from 25
years of the Poor Richard Almanac put in the
form of a speech. The reader may choose to
download this essay to their electronic reader,
read it directly online, or choose the HTML
version. The HTML version includes original
illustrations. How phenomenal it is for our
children to read a book, written in the vernac-
ular or language of the day by Ben
Franklin?
Do you want to know what Franklin wrote
about the responsibility of paying taxes?
Friends, says he, the taxes are indeed very
heavy; and, if those laid on by the government
were the only ones we had to pay, we might
more easily discharge them; but we have many
others, and much more grievous to some of us.
We are taxed twice as much by our idleness,
three times as much by our pride, and four
times as much by our folly; and from these
taxes the commissioners cannot ease or deliver
us by allowing an abatement. However, let us
hearken to good advice, and something may be
done for us; God helps them that help them-
selves, as Poor Richard says. From The
Way to Wealth by Richard Saunders, aka Ben
Franklin. Available ONLINE. Project Gutten-
berg. http://www.gutenberg.org.
I wonder what Ben Franklin would have
thought knowing that his book might be read
two hundred years later on some sort of con-
traption called a computer. As citizens of this
nation, you have the freedom to access
Franklins wisdom through his books available
in a variety of format, including free digital
and online. Other full-text online books of his-
torical significance include The Federalist Pa-
pers by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison
and John Jay; Common Sense by Thomas
Paine and The Eve of the Revolution: A Chron-
icle of the Breach with England by Carl
Becker. If you need assistance accessing or
downloading eBooks, contact your local public
library. We will be glad to assist you! Happy
Reading!

QUESTION: Our teenage
sons girlfriend is pregnant.
Hes 17 and shes 16. Its
difficult to admit this to
anyone. What does he most
need to hear from us?
JIM: Were sorry to learn
of this difficult situation. Your
son and his girlfriend have
clearly made a serious mis-
take, but mistakes of this kind
can be important stepping-
stones to maturity and adult-
hood.
Our counseling team sug-
gests that your whole family
can play a role in guiding the
expectant mother through this
frightening new experience.
She needs to be reminded of
the value of the precious life
shes carrying. In
partnership with her parents,
you can help her weigh and
balance her options and deter-
mine what her personal goals
ought to be at this point. She
wont be able to do this with-
out the assistance of caring,
life-affirming adults.
Your son also needs your
understanding. At his age,
hes trying hard to become his
own person. Unfortunately,
his bid for independence has
put him in an awkward posi-
tion.
Unlike the girl, who has to
deal with the realities of preg-
nancy, a teenage dad can find
it easy to dissociate himself
from the situation.
Part of your role will be to see
that this doesnt happen. Gen-
tly, but firmly, compel him to
face the implications of his
choices. Talk to him about the
sanctity of human life. Help
him think about the tremen-
dous and awesome responsi-
bility of bringing a child into
the world.
Encourage him to discuss
these issues openly with his
girlfriend and her parents.
Urge him to explore ways in
which he can take an active
role in the pregnancy, the
birth and the crucial decisions
that lie ahead.
Wed strongly suggest that
all of you seek professional
counseling as you attempt to
navigate these waters. Con-
tact Focus for a free consulta-
tion and referral. May God
grant you strength during this
emotional time!
QUESTION: Should I ac-
cept a friend request on
Facebook from an old
boyfriend? Im very much
in love with and committed
to my husband, so I feel
sure that this will not pose a
threat to our marriage.
DR. GREG SMALLEY,
Vice President, Family Min-
istries: The first thing you
should do is sit down and dis-
cuss this with your husband.
Tell him about the friend
request, and ask him how he
feels about it. Its important to
be open and honest and lay
everything out on the table.
Keeping secrets only under-
mines trust. If your marriage
is as strong and healthy as
you say it is, then its worth
protecting.
A recent survey of the
American Academy of Matri-
monial Lawyers revealed that
Facebook has been a major
factor in U.S. divorces the
last few years. You need to be
careful about exposing your
relationship to threats of any
kind, no matter how remote
they may seem.
Since your former
boyfriend has initiated this
contact, you should consider
his motives. If you suspect
that his intentions are not en-
tirely appropriate or honor-
able, ignore the request and
move on. Plus, you dont
know whats going on in his
life, and this might cause him
to stumble.
By Jim Daly
If youre still confused,
apply this basic litmus test:
Would it be helpful or harm-
ful to your marriage to re-es-
tablish a connection with this
person? If youre feeling in-
clined to grant the request,
you may need to pause and
evaluate your own motives.
Are you certain that you
dont feel compelled to revisit
the past because of present
discontent? Were not sug-
gesting that this is the case,
but its a question worth con-
sidering. In the final analysis,
its a decision that you and
your husband must make to-
gether.

Snakes are gone for now
By Mark Holtsberry
Education specialist
Paulding SWCD
Working on the wetland area this fall has gotten me to
wonder, where have the snakes gone? Now, I am not wanting
to see any, because those creatures just give me the creeps!
Snakes and many other reptiles find shelter in holes or bur-
rows, and spend the winter inactive or dormant. This is sim-
ilar to hibernation. Snakes crawl into caves, hollow logs or
other animals burrows to hibernate.
Snakes may also hibernate in anywhere free from frost and
can be found in narrow crevices in rocks, animal burrows,
holes under trees and stumps, under wood piles and occa-
sionally in basements.
Snakes will increase their intake of food before hibernat-
ing if they can. They can also hibernated during normal con-
ditions, due to a loss of food, but they normally respond to
extreme temperature changes. For many snakes, hibernation
is an important part of a healthy lifestyle and they should be
hibernating every year to prevent stress and illness.
During the first warm days of spring, snakes emerge from
the dens and begin sunning. After temperatures consistently
stay above freezing, snakes will begin searching for food and
move gradually to their summer range and birthing areas.
These movements can be as far away as five miles or as short
as a 1/4 mile.
In the fall, snakes move back to the previous years den.
If a sudden cold snap catches them, they may either die or
be fortunate and find a suitable secondary den. They usually
do not stay long at the den entrance, but hurry in for the long
winter sleep. So I hope they still sleep while I work on the
wetland area.

Payne Elementary 6th grade students in Mrs. Brennemans
class really enjoy the use of the mobile lab. They use
GoogleDocs almost every day, which is providing great practice
for when they transition to junior high and high school. They
also participate in online instructional games and quizzes, use
the online dictionary and other sites to help with their grammar,
visit spellingcity.com to practice their spelling words, use the
Internet for research assignments, and have Google search
races in class. The laptops have been great at engaging the stu-
dents in their lessons.
Student Council members for Grover Hill Elementary are from left to right,
standing are Madison Farquhar, Isaiah Rittenhouse, and Gabrielle Donis.
Seated are Lauren Walls, Nate Showalter, Reid Miller, Worth Clark, and Claire
Sinn.
Pictured are Vantage students involved in fall sports and extracurricular activities at their home school.
The Paulding Co. Board of Developmental Disabilities Early
Intervention class recently painted fall pictures for their fami-
lies.
Mrs. McMichael's kindergarten students at Antwerp Elementary studied all about apples in September. They tasted red, green,
and yellow apples. They studied how apples grow, conducted science experiments with apples, and learned about Johnny
Appleseed.
Oakwood Elementary students from Mrs. Nancy Wehrkamp's
music class are among those who recently received $1,000 in
prize money after entering the Ohio Department of
Transportation's safety contest. The students performed an
original rap called "Make Safety a Habit," which was filmed by
Mrs. Monnier's 2012 Paulding High School technology class.
Shown here with some of the safety materials purchased with
the prize money are students Jackson Keller, Kylie McCray,

The Paulding Elementary Preschool students were excited to have a visit
from our Police Chief Randy Crawford. He came and talked to them about
trick-or-treat safety. He stressed that our goal is to keep everyone safe during
trick-or-treating.
Here are a few students from fifth and sixth grade classes at Divine Mercy. They recently learned the
basics of cells. Students completed a model of a plant or animal cell to learn more about cell parts and
their functions. Some students made their projects out of clay, Styrofoam, pizza, cake, and Jell-O. At the
end of the project, the entire class agreed that cells can even taste good!
At Wayne Trace, students recently planned
and built Rube Goldberg machines in their 8th
grade science class. The students had to use
at least six energy transfers (steps) to com-
plete their final task. Students were able to
show off their energy knowledge, leadership
abilities, building/engineering skills, and team-
work while working on their machines. Shown
are Owen Brigner and Jordan Offerle experi-
menting with their machine.
The Paulding County Head Start NOCAC visited the Ohio Department of

tion dinner. During the dinner, employees, customers and vendors participated in a corn hole
benefit raffle. A Lazy Boy chair, jewelry and appliances were raffled off. The outcome was over-
whelming with $1,315 collected for The Caring and Sharing Food Bank in Paulding. The Logisti-
cize employees wanted all families to enjoy a blessed Thanksgiving meal.
Don Clark, band director of the Paulding High School Marching Band, and 11 senior members

the troops, while giving them a little taste of home for the holi-
days. Last year we shipped over 300 stockings. We are hoping to ship even more this
year", said John Den Herder, owner of Den Herder Funeral Home.

wide certified as an exclusive Veterans and Family Memorial Care Provider.
VFMC providers are also official drop off centers for "Cell Phones for Soldiers." Collec-

Paulding Master Gardener
program donates money
Paulding County Master Gardeners, Brenda DeLong and Laurel Hopkins present a donation
of $500 to Mark Holtsberry of the Paulding County Soil and Water Conservation District for use
in paving the trails around the Black Swamp Nature Center.
PAULDING The Pauld-
ing Master Gardener program
is one of the best hidden se-
crets in Paulding County.
Fourteen active members
hold certificates in the pro-
gram.
Over the spring and sum-
mer, they partnered with
Mark Holtsberry, Education
Specialist for the Paulding
Soil and Water Conservation
District. After working
closely with Holtsberry on
the landscaping at the Nature
Center, it was decided the
group would like to keep im-
proving the area. Recently,
$500 was donated to go to the
paving project for the trails
around the Black Swamp Na-
ture Center. The monies do-
nated were raised from a plant
sale in May.
The pathways have been
added so the public would
have the opportunity to view
the beauty of nature along the
trails. Holtsberry has been
working diligently to widen
and clean the pathways.
I want to say thank you to
the Paulding County OSU Ex-
tension Master Gardener pro-
gram for their hard work and
dedication, as well as their
monetary donation. It is so
great when two organizations
like the Extension Office and
Soil and Water Office can
work together for the better-
ment of the entire commu-
nity.
Master Gardener, Brenda
DeLong, said, I hope the cit-
izens of Paulding County take
the time to enjoy the trails and
nature. The surroundings are
maintained and beautiful and
there for the public to enjoy.
The Ohio State University
Extension Master Gardener
Volunteer Program provides
intensive training in horticul-
ture to interested Ohio resi-
dents who then volunteer their
time assisting with educa-
tional programs and activities
for Ohio residents through
their local Ohio State Univer-
sity Extension county office.
Volunteers are not required
to have gardening skills or
knowledge; a passion for
learning about gardening and
sharing this knowledge with
others is a must.
Working with county Exten-
sion personnel, Master Gar-
dener Volunteers provide such
educational services to their
communities as answering
gardening questions from the
public; conducting plant clin-
ics; gardening activities with
children, senior citizens, or
disabled persons; beautifying
the community; developing
community or demonstration
gardens; and other horticul-
tural activities.

2013, PCH experienced a loss
of $55,495 but in spite of this
still reports a YTD gain of
$97,926.
The recommendation to the
board regarding the mean-
ingful use computer pro-
gram is to update the hospital
information system to EPIC
at a cost of $1,943,380. This
cost will be spread out over
five years of payment.
Other Capital Expenditure
Requests (CERs) approved
by the board included:
A steam sterilizer, which
sterilizes surgical instru-
ments, at a cost of $31,943.
A coagulation analyzer
which performs tests for he-
parin use and testing for
bleeding disorders at a cost of
$36,750
A high definition surgical
endoscope at a cost of
$132,875.75.
Goshia also presented the
2014 operational budget and
the 2014 through 2016 capital
budget for approval.
Chief Operating Officer
Randy Ruge reported that the
new MRI service will begin
no later than Dec. 1. Ruge has
been working on upgrading
the amenities in the swing
bed rooms and as soon as the
census permits, the rooms
will be started to be outfitted
with the new furniture and
amenities.
Ruge reported that the
emergency department reno-
vations have been completed
and all seven patient rooms
are in use at this time. The
community has been very
complimentary concerning
the new ER layout and oper-
ation.
Chief Executive Officer
Gary Adkins told the board
that the MRI billboards, mail-
ers and brochures have been
distributed to educate the
community about the new
open bore MRI that will be
available very soon at PCH.
Adkins advised that PCH
has achieved certified appli-
cation counselor status to as-
sist the uninsured to sign up
through the Federal Health
Insurance Exchange to com-
ply with the Affordable
Healthcare Act.
Adkins reported that he has
been busy educating legisla-
tors about the Critical Access
Hospital system in light of a
recent Inspector Generals re-
port asking for CMS to elim-
inate necessary providers
within the Critical Access
Hospital program.
The next meeting is sched-
uled for 6:45 p.m. Dec. 5.

Paulding County and
the Civil War
OAKWOOD The Oak-
wood Arbor of the Gleaner
Life Insurance Society is
sponsoring a program on the
Men of Paulding County in
the Civil War. It will be held
at 7 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 21,
at the Cooper Community Li-
brary in Oakwood.
Mark Holtsberry will be
presenting the program based
on his nearly eight years of
research locating the graves
and compiling the service
records of the 900 Civil War
veterans buried in Paulding
County Cemeteries.
He located and erected
wooden crosses on the graves
of 40 veterans whose graves
were unmarked. Holtsberry is
the author of the book Civil
War Veterans Buried in
Paulding County published
by the Paulding County
Chapter Ohio Genealogical
Society.
Paulding County had the
highest percentage of its pop-
ulation serving in the Civil
War of any county in the state
of Ohio: 2,200 men.
Holtsberry, who is the Educa-
tion Specialist of the Paulding
County SWCD, has many in-
teresting and some amusing
stories to tell about his re-
search.
Attendees may have a tale
to tell about their ancestor
who served in the Civil War
that they would like to share
with us. Everyone is welcome
to attend the program. Re-
freshments will be served.

Wayne Trace set for matchup with Tinora
By KEVIN
WANNEMACHER
Sportswriter
NORTH ROBINSON
Wayne Trace got its offense
back in sync and the Raiders
rolled to a 52-28 win over
Colonel Crawford in Division
VI, Region 20 quarterfinal ac-
tion Friday night in Crawford
County.
The Raiders move on to the
regional semifinals where they
will take on Green Meadows
Conference champion Tinora
in a rematch of a game won by
the Rams 27-16 in Defiance
County earlier this year. The
two squads will meet at Lima
Stadium with a kickoff at 7:30
p.m.
Head coach Bill Speller was
pleased with the efforts of the
Raiders against the Eagles.
We got back into sync
tonight where our offense was
able to move the ball effec-
tively, commented Speller
after the game. I thought our
offensive line played very
well. We were able to establish
more of a running game
tonight and it allowed us to
open things up in the passing
game as well.
Senior quarterback Colby
Speice finished the night 30 of
49 through the air for 346
yards, throwing five touch-
down passes on the evening.
Wayne Trace opened the
games scoring on a 25-yard
scoring strike from Speice to
Jake Arend at the 1:33 mark of
the first quarter.
The Raiders added a seven-
yard touchdown toss by Spe-
ice to Cole Shepherd to widen
the margin to 14-0.
However, the biggest play
of the night came on the ensu-
ing kickoff.
Wayne Traces Darian
Asher-Layman recovered a
short kick that no Colonel
Crawford player was able to
get to, giving the red, white
and blue possession at the
Eagle 22-yard line.
Three plays later, Speice
hooked up with Jared Sherry
on a ten-yard touchdown pass
to widen the Raider advantage
to 20-0.
The kickoff was a big
play, Speller noted. It gave
us an extra possession offen-
sively and we were able to
take advantage of it.
Colonel Crawford re-
sponded with a 13-yard scor-
ing strike from quarterback to
Nate Klingenberger to Owen
Adams but Wayne Trace an-
swered.
Speice led an 11-play, 85-
yard drive that culminated
with a four-yard toss to Sherry
as the Raiders grabbed a 28-6
halftime advantage.
The Eagles twice pulled
within two scores in the third
quarter but werent able to cut
into the deficit any further.
Klingenberger found
Kameron Landing on a 13-
yard pass as Colonel Crawford
pulled within 28-14 with 6:33
left in the third quarter.
Wayne Trace responded
with an 18-yard touchdown
toss by Speice to Korbin
Showalter for a 34-14 Raider
advantage.
Host Colonel Crawford
quickly answered. Two plays
later, Klingenberger overthrew
the Raider defense for a 53-
yard strike to Logan Gulley as
the Eagles trimmed the deficit
to 34-20 with 4:07 left in the
period.
The Eagles had an opportu-
nity to get closer, opening the
fourth quarter with a first and
ten at their own 42-yard line.
Following an incomplete
pass, Wayne Traces Jake Ger-
ber stepped in and picked off
the second down pass attempt
by Klingenberger to give the
Raiders possession at the
Colonel Crawford 40-yard
line.
The turnover led to an 11-
yard touchdown scamper by
Sherry that pushed the advan-
tage to 40-21 and virtually
sealed the victory.
It was a big play, noted
Speller of the interception.
They (Colonel Crawford) had
an opportunity to get within
one score and we were able to
come up with a big stop defen-
sively. The offense came out
and took advantage and it was
a big swing in momentum.
Wayne Trace finished the
night off from there. The
Raiders picked up a Speice
four-yard plunge for a score to

Former Wayne Trace stand-
out point guard Kacee Hocken-
berry was named to the
Pre-season All-GLIAC
Womens Basketball first team
of the South Division the
GLIAC (Great Lakes Intercol-
legiate Athletic Conference) of-
fense announced Thursday.
Hockenberry is the starting
point guard for Ohio Domini-
can University. The Lady Pan-
thers are projected to finish
sixth in the South Division, of
which defending national
champion Ashland is the fa-
vorite. The University of Find-
lay was picked to finish second.
Hockenberry, a junior this
coming season, averaged 14.7
points per game along with 4.1
rebounds, 2.2 steals and 1.9 as-
sists a contest last year as a
sophomore. The former Raider
was a second team all-GLIAC
pick at the end of the 2012-
2013 season.
During the 2012-2013 sea-
son, Hockenberry scored 20 or
more points four times, includ-
ing a stretch of three straight
games in January with a career
high 24 markers coming
against Ferris State and Mal-
one.
Ohio Dominican is in its sec-
ond season under the direction
of head coach Lynsey Warren.
The Lady Panthers were 11-15
a year go but graduated no sen-
iors from that squad. Ohio Do-
minican opens its season on
Nov. 16 as the Lady Panthers
visit Cedarville in a 7 p.m. con-
test.
The Paulding High School girls soccer team recently com-
pleted their first season. Awards were presented to (from left)

ments to the Plaintiff on

tutes compliance with

ment Contract the prin-
cipal sum of

est.

tled to an order of for-
