LIMA The Ohio Department of
Transportation has put in motion sev-
eral initiatives to improve the U.S. 24
corridor in Paulding, Defiance and
Henry counties in response to acci-
dents which have occurred at the at-
grade intersections along the route.
Among the initiatives is the place-
ment of video cameras which will be
located at two intersections in
Paulding County where a number of
accidents have occurred. The cameras
will be temporarily installed at the in-
tersections of U.S. 24 and County
Road 87 and County Road 143 on Oct.
14 and will begin recording immedi-
ately. The cameras will record for one
week.
Kirk Slusher, Ohio Department of
Transportation District 1 deputy direc-
tor, emphasized the recordings from
the cameras are for analytical purpos-
es only and will not be used for law
enforcement purposes.
The cameras will provide valuable
insight into how drivers on U.S. 24
and those traveling through the inter-
sections are negotiating their move-
ments during both day and nighttime
hours. This will help us see what road-
way conditions or driver behaviors
could be contributing to the occur-
rence of accidents, said Slusher.
These particular intersections were
chosen for videoing because of the
number of accidents and fatalities
which have occurred at each.
From 2010 through June of 2014,
six accidents occurred at County Road
143 with three fatalities resulting. At
County Road 87, four accidents oc-
curred with three fatalities resulting.
Yet this year, ODOT plans to add
additional signage throughout the U.S.
24 corridor in Paulding and Defiance
counties.
These are things we can do rather
quickly to bring greater awareness of
the intersections to motorists on both
U.S. 24 and at the crossroads, said
Slusher.
In the coming weeks, the depart-
ment plans to place the following ad-
ditional signage at the indicated loca-

PAULDING This years
annual hog roast at the John

PAYNE The EMS probationary captain was de-
moted, stop light issues were heard and the high cost
of restroom upgrades were heard at the Payne Village
Council meeting on Monday evening.
In executive session, following the regular busi-
ness meeting, council unanimously voted to dismiss
Amber Schuerman as probationary captain of the
Payne EMS. She will remain as an EMS member, but
will no long hold the rank of captain.
When asked for the reason for the demotion, the
council made no comment.
Council was updated on the stop lights and con-
troller that have been out of order for several weeks.
Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) states
that a permit was issued in 1963 for two traffic lights,
but no records show the upgrade or periodic valida-
tion of those lights since that time.
ODOT recommends the village perform the re-
quired traffic signal warrant study and if found to be
unwarranted, they should be removed and replaced

Lyons vision and gave their

Police Chief Rodney
Miller reported a burnt oil
smell from the police cruiser.
He was advised to get two es-
timates for repairs.
Council unanimously
agreed to purchase snow fence
and fence posts to be installed
in Youngs Addition. The cost
will be approximately $850.
Cost of the project will come
from the street fund.
Trick-or-Treat will be
from 4-5:30 p.m. on Oct. 25
with the parade to follow at 6
p.m.
The village fire, police,
light committee will meet with
EMS on Oct. 30 at 7 p.m.
Austin Scheiner was in-
troduced to council with inter-
est in serving on the zoning
board.
Last year, officials with
ODOT District 1 consulted
with federal officials, the Ohio
State Highway Patrol, and
both the Paulding County
Commissioners office and the
Paulding County Sheriffs
Office in response to the acci-
dents in Paulding County. As
a result, pavement markings
were added to the intersec-
tions with U.S. 24 at County
Road 21, Township Road 83,
County Road 87, County
Road 115, County Road 232,
County Road 133 and County
Road 143 to better define the
median areas at each at-grade
intersection. These markings
were recently repainted.
In August of this year,
Slusher led a community dis-
cussion in Paulding regarding
the accident issue. The com-
ments received there and
since are being considered as
part of the analysis.
tions:
Signs on U.S. 24 which
state Intersections Next (xx)
Miles will be posted at the
Indiana line for drivers head-
ing eastbound, at the
Defiance/Henry County line
for drivers heading west-
bound, and on each side of the
city of Defiance for both east-
bound and westbound traffic.
An additional Inter -
section Ahead sign will be
placed on U.S. 24 in both the
eastbound and westbound di-
rection prior to each intersec-
tion in Paulding and Defiance
counties. This sign is current-
ly only posted on the drivers
right, but an additional sign
will be placed on the drivers
left as well.
An additional Stop
sign will be added on the dri-
vers left at each crossroad in
Paulding and Defiance coun-
ties.
Look Again signs will
be placed on the back side of
each right-hand stop sign at
each crossroad in Paulding
and Defiance counties. The
signs will direct traffic cross-
ing U.S. 24 or turning onto
U.S. 24 to look again before
proceeding.
An overall study of the U.S.
24 corridor in Paulding,
Defiance and Henry counties
has been initiated and will ex-
amine more long-range plans
to improve the safety of the
corridor. Among the options
would be constructing over-
heads at particular locations,
reconfiguring the access at
others and perhaps closing ac-
cess completely at some.
The analysis and the ulti-
mate decisions which result
will take time to carry out. We
will continue to communicate
with the community and en-
courage them to remain in
contact with us regarding the
enhanced safety of U.S. 24,
said Slusher.
From 2010 to present, 22
accidents have occurred along
U.S. 24 in Paulding County.
Six of those accidents resulted
in seven fatalities which oc-
curred at County Road 143,
County Road 87 and County
Road 115.
In Defiance County, two ac-
cidents occurred within that
same time frame with no fatal-
ities resulting. In Henry
County, 15 accidents occurred
resulting in eight injuries.

Fire, EMS and law enforcement professionals:

25 years together!
CELEBRATE

with more appropriate traffic
control in compliance with
Ohio law prior to moving for-
ward with any signal upgrade
project.
Upon village request,
ODOT District 1 is willing to
assist with conducting a traffic
signal warrant study for both
intersections to determine the
best course of action. No cost
has been associated with the
warrant study. The study must
be conducted before approval
for upgrade or replacement
will be granted. According to
Mayor Terry Smith, the re-
quest for ODOT to assist was
made Oct. 6.
Until such study is complet-
ed or a decision is reached,
ODOT suggests that as this
time, stop signs should be lo-
cated in all four directions and
be visible to oncoming traffic.
The stop lights will be turned
off and bagged as possible.
Stop signs will control exclu-
sively. ODOT advised putting
the ALL WAY plaque under-
neath the stop signs. By law, a
dark signal is to be treated as
an all-way stop.
Council received the bid
from Yoders Construction in
the amount of $31,580 for con-
struction of new ADA-compli-
ant restrooms at the future vil-
lage building (former bank).
In order to take advantage of
CDBG funds, council will
need to approve the bid by
Nov. 22. However, several
council members voiced con-
cern about the high cost and
have advised the building
committee to do an overview
of the project costs before ac-
cepting the bid.
Joe Garmyn gave the EMS
report. In order to receive the
recent $26,000 grant, council
needed to make a motion to
accept such grant. A motion
was made and passed unani-
mously. Council will be re-
sponsible to match 5 percent
of the grant or $1,370. Grant
monies must be used primarily
for increased educational
needs and for advancing the
level of service.
In other EMS business, the
department made nine runs
during the month of
September and assisted with
four fire runs.
The EMS also reported, as
instructed at the last council
meeting, to bring information
concerning the cost of upcom-
ing training conferences. Two
conferences are scheduled in
the near future with several
EMTs showing interest to at-
tend. Cost is $175 and $250
for the two and lodging is esti-
mated at $109-$112 per night.
At the close of the meeting,
council recognized several
from the community for their
efforts in making Payne a
community they can all be
proud. Special recognition was
made to the fall festival com-
mittee and to its many volun-
teers for their hard work in
making this years festival a
success. Dangler Excavation
was thanked for their donation
of pea gravel to the park and
Doug Baxter was also recog-
nized for the behind-the-
scenes projects he does in-
cluding the cutting away of
rusty bolts from several light
posts throughout the village.
In other business:
Council tabled the possi-
ble FEMA grant in the amount
of $131,000 until more infor-
mation is received.
Bill Lyon approached
council with concern for the
local park and it not meeting a
high standard when compared
to other parks in the area. Lyon
was seeking permission from
council to form a committee
that would work together and
with council to discover ways
to improve the facility. Lyon
would like to seek donations
from the private sector as well
as grants to possibly upgrade
the park. Council agreed with

Progress continues with ground work preparing for the new barns at the Paulding County Fairgrounds. Last week, load after
load of stone was brought in to elevate the site and the entire fill area has been compacted. The site is ready for the contrac-
tor, who is expected to begin work next week unless weather conditions cause delays. Here, county equipment rests at a point
during the process. Donations are still being accepted for the construction of three barns to house swine, poultry, goat and
sheep projects. To make a donation contact Lisa McClure at the Paulding Area Foundation office at 419-399-8296.

Dear Friends far and near,
With September coming
to a close, Julia and I are
delighted to have reached
a goal. This summer my
husband, Daniel, challenged
me with the idea of spending
10-15 minutes a day singing
with Julia. After thinking it
over a bit he said, Ill pay you
$2 a day plus Ill add a bonus
if you dont skip a day until
the frst of October. You may
have a break on Sundays, he
planned. It means a lot to me
if you spend time with her,
especially while singing.
Since I love to spend time
singing with Julia and her
joy from it is the only pay
I need, Daniels offer was
way too good to turn down!
So we rose to the challenge.
Of course by the end of
September we had many
special memories of the times
we spent singing together. She
especially likes the songs with
motions so we added some
spice by clapping, pointing,
etc. She remembered some of
the motions better than I did, so
occasionally she had to correct
me when I missed a part.
Its such a joy and
satisfaction to see her learning
new songs. By now she has
learned a nice variety of them.
A few of her favorites are
Only a Boy Named David
and Zacchaeus Was a Wee
Little Man. Her old faithful
is Jesus Loves the Little
Children. Ive sung it over
and over and over to her in the
past few years. It is a standby
and security for her when its
time to sleep or when she isnt
feeling well. She has heard it
hundreds of times already.
Now the tough part: what
Ill buy with my money from
Daniel? When I asked Julia
what she thinks we could do
with it, her response, was We
should give it to the poor little
children. Bless her heart.
We truly have all and
much more than we need
while others are starving or
freezing to death. And really,
what choice or option did we
have to be born where our
basic needs are supplied for?
Certainly we are none better
than they. Dont we also have
a responsibility to pray for
those less fortunate and share
with them as God blesses us?
Yes, as Julia advised, I
want to share a portion of
my singing money with those
in need. The question still
remains What should I do
with the rest of it? So far
Ive just bought a childrens
songbook for Julia. Ive
debated about perhaps putting
some of it towards a little
wagon. It would be especially
nice to give Julia rides when I
walk to the store or go to my
parents house.
As Im writing Ive had
quite a few interruptions
with watching the milk
temperatures on the stove. Im
working on yogurt as well as a
large batch of cheese. I enjoy
kitchen work but somehow
theres an extra satisfaction of
turning gallons of rich Jersey
milk into cheese. The two
main kinds of cheese I make
are mozzarella and a soft,
orange cheese that is a lot like
Velveeta. Today, Im working
on Velveeta. Its very easy to
make and tastes amazingly
like the real Velveeta. Of
course its much healthier
than the store-bought cheeses,
which is an important factor
to me. Ill include my recipe
in case it would be of interest
to you to try.
As soon as I have wrapped
up these tasks I need to go
tackle a stack of laundry. My
ringer washer is on our new
deck right outside the back
door. Doing dirty laundry
is something Ive actually
learned to enjoy. As a young
girl I often dreaded it. Now
since I have a family of my
own and can go out in the
fresh air and sunshine to do
the washing I enjoy it in a
new way. At the same time,
my favorite part is fnishing
up and watching the clean
laundry blow merrily on the
line. In several hours its dry
and time to fold and put away
and ready to be used and
made dirty all over again!
HOMEMADE
VELVEETA CHEESE
1 gallon of milk
2 tablespoons citric acid
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup butter
1-1/4 teaspoons salt
2-1/2 tablespoons cheddar
cheese powder
1/3 cup whole milk
Heat a gallon of milk to
140. Remove from heat
and add 2 tablespoons citric
acid. Stir, allowing curds to
separate from whey. Drain
whey and let set for 10
minutes. Add soda, butter,
salt, cheddar cheese powder,
and milk to the curds. Heat
and stir briskly until the
lumps are dissolved. Put into
a container and refrigerate. I
like lining my container with
plastic wrap then lifting it out
after it is set. It makes it easier
to slice.

Flat Rock Creek
vendor unhappy
with location
Dear Editor,
Remember when the Flat
Rock Creek fall festival was
about good times, good food
and good music? I have sold
my artwork there and have
been the face painter for
nearly 20 years.
I was born and raised in
Paulding. We look forward to
the event to visit with family
and friends. While we are
in town we spend money at
local businesses.
This year however, the
chamber of commerce
wanted to move us out of
our regular location, with
no prior notice and no
consideration of what is
involved to stake down and
secure a 20-foot canopy tent.
Also, the fact that people
know where to fnd us.
We were told that if we
didnt like it we could leave.
If all the vendors that were
dissatisfed would leave,
there would be no festival.
I would like to see the
festival continue to be the
same fun loving event it has
been for years!

Response to
vendors letter
Dear Editor,
The Paulding Chamber
has diligently put every effort
into continuing the Flat Rock
Creek Festival with the same
great atmosphere and family
venue that the festival has been
offering since its beginning.
Its with the support, time and
efforts of numerous volunteers
who have been helping with
the festival for many many
years that continues to make
the event a community affair.
They are the faces not seen
that make this festival a
success. A big thank you to all
who helped us in 2014!
Sometime vendors are asked
to move for an improvement in
layout and safety. This year we
did have a kids section that
included the popular pumpkin
painting and a new activity
that allowed the kids to mine
for gems. It was the goal to
place the face painter in that
area where there would be
more children.
Chamber board members
made every effort to meet and

greet each vendor during the
weekend. The new chamber
director and I made it through
most of the craft and vendor
booths asking how everyone
was doing and if things were
going OK. We heard only
very minor requests such as
one person would like to see a
port-a-potty in the vendor area.
Its already on our notes for
next year!
We have received many
positive feedback remarks
and did fnd that many of the
vendors, and guests, love the
fact that we are registering
golf carts. This was done both
for safety and to decrease the
amount of carts in the venue.
People are really appreciating
the shuttle service that we now
offer in the parking lot as well.
The chamber looks forward
to the future of the Flat
Rock Creek Festival and
as we are still learning we
hope that vendors, campers
and the community can be
understanding while we learn
and grow. If anyone would
like to be part of this great
event, please contact the

Costs involved in
things of value
Dear Editor,
As with anything of value or
worth, there is a cost involved.
If we want a home, there is cost
involved, whether to buy or
rent. If we want transportation,
there is cost involved, whether
to buy a vehicle or to hire
someone to drive us. If we
want schools, there is cost
involved, in taxes. If we want
ball felds or public swimming
pools, there is cost involved,
in taxes. If we want the beneft
of a public library, how can
we not imagine there will also
be a cost for it, for upkeep and
contents and staffng?
For many years, we were
fortunate to receive monies
from the state, collected from
taxes we paid to the state,
divided up among the public
libraries. Now that source
is drying up due to the belt-
tightening efforts of the state.
If we want to continue
the benefts of this priceless
treasure and privilege we own,
the ball has now been thrown
into our laps. Who else will
provide for that which we use
and perhaps take for granted?
The library funds we contribute
will stay in our communities,
for the use of our citizens. We
have library facilities in our
county of which we can be
proud. Lets not allow them to
diminish.

Storytimes can
introduce little
ones to reading
Dear Editor,
Thank you to all the
parents, grandparents and
caregivers who bring their
preschoolers to storytimes at
the library. Today, we had
over a dozen preschoolers
attend the new Wednesday
morning storytime at the
main historic Carnegie
library in Paulding.
Our literacy specialist
and library clerk, Kooky
Kirk, provides a welcoming
and fun series of storytimes
throughout the year to
introduce young children to
books and the library. There
is much more involved than
reading aloud to the children.
There are activities, crafts,
interactive play and more
that help reinforce the theme
of the day. Most of the
preschoolers then go to the
library shelves and choose
their own books to take
home.
Do you have a
preschooler? The main
historic Carnegie library
offers preschool storytime
twice a week: Tuesdays at
1 p.m. and Wednesdays at
10 a.m. All of your librarys
branches, including the
Bookmobile, offer storytimes
to preschoolers. For many
children, this may be their
only introduction to books
and the library.
Creating new readers and
early literacy is the number
one objective of your county
library system. Remember,
the best gift you can give a
child is a library card!

PC Workshop
employs workers,
offers programs
Dear Editor,
As members of the
nonproft board of PC
Workshop Inc., we urge your
vote for the levy renewal
supporting individuals with
developmental disabilities
and the programs in Paulding
County. We are grateful to the
citizens of Paulding County
who have historically been
considerate and generous with
those among us who need a
little extra assistance.
We work hard to look at
every person and their needs
as individuals, and fgure out
the best way to give them the
quality services they need and
deserve. We strive to make
our families lives better.
Among the several
programs supported by the
Paulding County Board of
DD is PC Workshop Inc.,
a successful, but widely
misunderstood business
located on Pauldings west
side. Frequently, we hear
from people who think of the
Workshop as merely an adult
daycare facility. Nothing
could be further from the
truth.
PC Workshop employs
over 50 adults. Through
contracts with manufacturers
in the area, PC Workshop
employees handle a variety
jobs, including automotive
small-parts jobs and assembly
of feld telephones used by the
military all over the world,
including Iraq.
The Workshop also
contracts with Ohio
Department of Transportation
for cleaning and maintenance
duties at roadside rests and
ODOT garages. That is over
50 people making money,
paying taxes and gaining
amazing self-esteem that
would not be possible without
your help.
Again, we thank you for
your past support and your
vote on Nov. 4, 2014. Anyone
who is interested in visiting or
touring PC Workshop should
call 419-399-4805. Our
proud, caring workers would
love to show you around.

What you dont
know about
your library
Dear Editor:
I have had the opportunity
to work with the folks at the
Paulding County Carnegie
Library for a number of
years as have many local
businesses. And, I have to
admit, I really did not pay
attention all that much to the
library before I got to know
them. I always thought of
the public library as being
there. Did not really have
a need to use it dont read
much; and my kids were
grown.
Did you know that the
library orders thousands
of items of materials each
year? These books, movies,
music, and other items do
not magically appear on the
shelf. There is a cataloger
and an assistant that unboxes,
sorts, catalogs and processes
each new item that goes on
the library shelf.
Did you know that if the
library does not own an
item, a patron can request it
from another library? There
are 1,000s of items each
year that are borrowed and
returned to other libraries
throughout Ohio. Someone
has to check these in, send
them to the branch where the
person requested it and then
return it. It is a huge process
and there is an employee
who spends part of her time
coordinating that service.
Did you know there are
only two people at each
branch and Bookmobile?
Did you know that there
are part-time employees at the
library?
Did you know that the
library also proctors tests,
helps senior citizens fll out
forms for assistance, helps
the unemployed fle for
unemployment insurance,
helps job seekers create
resumes and apply for jobs?
They have computers,
thousands of new books each
year, magazines, newspapers,
and even eBooks. They
offer storytimes, programs
for adults and teens. The
Bookmobile brings library
materials to so many people
of all ages who cannot go to
the library including nursing
homes people who do not
have transportation.
They put on kids programs
that would never happen
if not for the library. Do
you know how many kids
and grown-ups enjoy these
programs? Thousands attend
each year.
The days of the little old
lady checking out books
are gone. Todays library is
not at all like the library of
our childhood memories.
The only thing I would bet
they would say they have
in common with their older
version is that they still have
books and occasionally a little
old lady works there.
I could go on and on. I
encourage you to support your
county library. You may say
you do not use it, but I bet
your grandchild, cousin, aunt,
uncle, nieces, grandparents,
parents and others you know,
do. Our public library cannot
continue to provide this level
of service on 50% less money.
Our public library needs to be
supported by all of us.

DD programs
helped child
and family
Dear Editor,
I am writing this letter
to express support of the
Paulding County Board of
Developmental Disabilities.
(PCBDD).
My family has been
directly affected by the
people who work for
PCBDD. My child was
enrolled in the Early
Intervention (EI) Program
for a speech delay. This is a
wonderful program offered
free of charge. My child was
not saying much when he
started this program, and by
the end of the program he
was using sentences.
Not only did he learn to
talk, but he learned how to
express his feelings through
words and was able to
interact with the other kids
without having meltdowns,
because no one knew what
he needed.
This program was great
for my child, but was also
a great help for myself. I
was able to interact with
the staff, other parents, and
their children along with my
child. If I needed information
on anything, the staff and
teachers were more than
happy to assist.
I feel that because there is
no charge for this program,
that more children with
delays will be helped. My
child was very excited about
school; he woke up almost
every day asking if he had
school. My family is thankful
for being able to have the
privilege to be involved
in this program. I would
recommend this program to
anyone who thinks their child
has any delays.

Information
Literacy Month
By Ellen Williams, MLS
Paulding Exempted Village Schools
Okay, so, October is Information Literacy Month how
is that relevant to our daily lives? Its relevant because we
are surrounded by oceans of information in all formats and
according to Eric Schmidt, executive chairman of Google,
every two days we create as much information as we did from
the dawn of civilization up until 2003. So when you receive
an e-mail or a Facebook post that baby carrots are made from
deformed full-size carrots soaked in chorine and thats why they
turn white, how do you recognize the truth of the statement?
That is information literacy. It is the ability to identify what
information is needed, understand how the information is
organized, identify the best sources of information for a given
need, locate those sources, evaluate the sources critically and
then share the information.
President Obama stated in a 2009 Proclamation, National
Information Literacy Awareness Month highlights the need for
all Americans to be adept in the skills necessary to effectively
navigate the Information Age.
As with everything from learning to play the drums to
executing the perfect foul shot, developing information literacy
skills takes practice. Are your children receiving enough hours
of practice to prepare them to be college, career and future
ready? Ask your school librarian what lessons they are teaching
and resources they are providing.
In Ohio, over a quarter of a million students do not have
access to a licensed school librarian and over half a million
students may have access to a school librarian once a week.
Information literacy as a practiced skill cannot be brushed away
for another day we have way too many problems in this world
that need solutions and those solutions only come when the
students of today can evaluate sources critically and share with
the rest of the world.
In 2012, Governor Kasich frst proclaimed October as
Information Literacy Month and Ohio joined 18 other states
in an endeavor to raise awareness about what it means to
be information literate. His proclamation set out to remind
all citizens of the importance of the role of all libraries and
librarians academic, public, school and special in teaching
information literacy, which fosters educational opportunities,
economic prosperity, social cohesion, democracy, and quality
of life. If you are not sure how to evaluate information, check
with your local librarian.

The leaves are changing
colors; has anyone noticed?
By Mark Holtsberry
Education specialist
Paulding SWCD
Fall time is here and some weeks have
already had the fall nip in the air. I admit, I
like the temperatures in the 80s and not the
cold, therefore I try to hang on and soak in
the rays whenever possible.
Offcially, Sept. 22 was the frst day of fall
and with fall comes an immense change in
seasons. The air begins to cut through you
instead of providing a replenishing cool from
the hot sun.
I really enjoy watching the leaves turn and
seeing the beautiful trees the nature center has
to offer. And with that thought, I believe many
folks may not know why the leaves change
colors. Well, there are three major factors that
play into leaves turning and giving them their
brilliant color.
We frst have to look at the pigments in the
leaf itself. Chlorophyll, which is what gives
leaves their green color during the summer,
has a role in the process of photosynthesis
to help the plant make sugars to use as food.
Carotenoids are pigments that give yellow,
orange and brown colors and are found in
the chlorlplasts of plants. The third pigment
is anthocyanin, which appear in liquid parts
of the leaf cells. Here you get your reds and
purples from. All of these combined determine
color for the leaves of trees. All trees have
different amounts of these pigments which
generally give each species its yearly red or
yellow leaf color in the fall like oaks and
poplars. Species also seem to determine when
the leaves will change colors during the year
as a genetic inheritance. Secondly, the
length of days, which are getting shorter, is
the next key factor that plays a major part
when the leaves actually start to change. As
the daylight gets shorter in the fall, the leaves
have less time for photosynthesis causing less
sugars and food to be produced. At this time,
the amount of chlorophyll in the leaves is
falling off and this is where the color starts to
come through.
Weather is the third player in color change.
The amount of sunny days, rainfall and
temperature can all affect how well leaf color
comes out. More sunlight and moderate rain
fall mixed with warmer temperatures will
cause the best colors to show. The trick is
to have cooler nights to stop the sugars from
leaving the veins and backing up. This is
what causes the anthocyanius to be produced.
As fall wears on and the temperatures cool
off into freezing points, this causes a layer
of cells to build over the veins completely,
closing off the end of the leaf. At this point,
the leaves are ready to fall off. They will be
broken down and recycled back into the earth
as if they never existed.
As you stroll through the nature center
park, or drive down the highway, hopefully
you will have a deeper appreciation for one of
natures most striking processes that can start
to build a beauty of colors to fll ones eyes.
Twinkies, Popsicles and Kool-Aid
Let me say this, grocery
shopping for one is challenging.
I love to cook and was used to
cooking large quantities, so
adjusting to eating alone and
cooking for just me is just not
the same. Now I think to myself,
Hey, I can eat what I want for
lunch or dinner and no one can
tell me what to eat or when to eat
it. I am guilty of eating chips
and dip, ice cream, and bowls of
cereal for supper; however, it is
always a treat to have the family
in and cook a regular nice meal.
You think it may be cheaper
shopping for one person, but
those smaller sizes are just as
much if not more than a super
size. For instance, I am not a
milk drinker. The only time I use
milk is on a bowl of cereal, so I
buy the 1/2 gallon size which is
pricier than a whole gallon. So,
is it best to purchase a gallon of
milk and not use it or just buy
smaller sizes?
Even though cooking for one
has its limitations, I still can
spend three hours in a grocery
store just looking. What do I gain
by looking at food for so long at
a time? I get an education each
time I go, because I constantly
fnd an old product which has
been changed.
Do you recall when Hostess
was going to stop making
Twinkies? There were petitions
on social media and in the news
to save the Twinkie. We can
all remember the good taste of
those little creme-flled cakes,
but whether it was nostalgia or
we all loved them, it worked
and Twinkies reappeared on
our grocery shelves. The other
day while doing my three-
hour education class in food
browsing, I saw that they now
have a chocolate and jelly flled
Twinkie. Thats not a Twinkie,
but there they were in all their
splendor and were basically
pushing the old vanilla crme
ones out. I wonder Why did
they change them now? I mean
Twinkies has been around for a
long time.
Rice Krispy Treats have been
around for quite a while too, but
not the store bought ones. We
used to make them at home and
it was always a treat to pour that
creamy melted marshmallows
over the rice cereal and eat the
wonderful finished product.
Now, they have them in the
stores in all shapes and colors.
They have ghosts, pumpkins,
rabbits, Santas and trees. They
have come out with chocolate
Rice Krispies and even ones
with orange colored candies
on them. Are the minds today
just more creative than 50 years
ago?
A product which came
out a few years back called
Goldfsh Crackers, are very
popular with kids and are on
a lot of school menus. They
are shaped like a fsh and were
always gold colored. Now,
all gold fsh must not be gold
because I saw a package of
multicolored Goldfsh Crackers
and I wondered why the change
in color? Do the kids eat the
multicolored ones better than
the gold ones?
We used to make Chex mix
every year around the holidays,
but now, they make Chex mix
in a bag. There are all kinds of
favors such as peanut butter,
ranch, and even a chocolate
mixture.
The people who are employed
by food producers must be
thinking outside the box all of
the time. Another product is
V-8 juice. There is now a fruit
favored V-8. I have never tried
it, but to me V-8 means eight
kinds of vegetables made into a
juice.
I could go on and on about
changes in our food. Another
item is Kool-Aid. Years ago
they came in small packages
and we only had cherry, orange
or grape favored. You added
2 cups of sugar to the package
and some ice cubes and, wow,
that made the best drink on
a hot summer day. Today,
Kool-Aid is in big cans, sugar-
free, and comes in all kinds
of favors. They even have a
lemonade tea flavored. Does
anyone recall making popsicles
out of Kool-Aid? Speaking of
popsicles, I see now they have
a Jolly Ranchers candy favored
popsicle.
Oh, and by the way, Peeps
and Cadbury eggs are not just
for Easter anymore, and candy
corn is just not for Halloween.
They are all appearing for each
holiday. I have observed red and
green and pink and purple candy
corn. Oh my!
We are fortunate to live
in a country where we have
so many choices. While I
still prefer the homemade,
old fashioned products, it
seems everything changes.
Sometimes changes are good
and sometimes we question
them.
Now, if you ever want
to spend three hours in a
grocery store, you will get
an education on the past and
present of food products. It
is hard to say what our future
food choices will be. I will
probably do my three hours
of food browsing next week
and I wonder what will be the
next new item?
Have you ever shopped for
food for three hours? Do you
notice all the changes being
made to food products? Do
you remember the foods of
the past? Let me know and
Ill give you a Penny for Your
Thoughts.

Business News
COMPANY CELEBRATES 100 YEARS Archbold Equipment Company of Sherwood was
recently honored by the Defance Chamber of Commerce for 100 years of continued service to
the Defance community. Here, accepting the award are Rodney Mobley (center), director of sales
for AEC, and Ben Webb, sales at Sherwood. Decker Equipment Co. opened as an International
Harvester dealer in downtown Sherwood in 1914. Three generations of Decker family owned
and operated the business for over 75 years. In the 1980s, a new building was constructed
on Ohio 18, where the dealership currently resides today. Archbold Equipment purchased
Deckers Equipment in 1993 and continues to operate as a CASE IH dealership. Currently, a
10,000-square-foot shop expansion project is nearing completion, allowing AEC to expand the
service operations and with that, the Sherwood location hopes to provide additional employment
opportunities as the business continues to grow. The Sherwood location is one of six Archbold
Equipment dealerships located in the tri-state area, serving northwest Ohio, northeast Indiana,
and southeast Michigan.

How well do you know your fruits?
Last week on Facebook,
I asked if anyone could
guess what crunchy, sweet,
juicy food was one of my
most enjoyable culinary
experiences. The crunchy
adjective threw people off and
the most guessed food was the
apple.
While I love a good
Honeycrisp, Jazz, or
SweeTango apple, this wasnt
what I had in mind. Another
clue that youd never guess
this food was a type of berry
took the guesses in a totally
new direction.
Then out of the blue,
one of my friends guessed
watermelon. Boom. One of
summers greatest pleasures,
watermelon puts me in my
happy place and its all good
because its a healthy food.
Not a lot of my cravings can
boast of that.
Watermelon has many
fascinating attributes, most
notably that its more than
90% water. Its also high
in fber, which is one of the
things that I love about it. That
texture, that unique crunch
when you bite down, coupled
with the sweet juice, makes it a
sensory experience as well as a
healthy choice.
Naturally high in Vitamin
C, like most fruits, watermelon
can also boast that its a
good source of Vitamin A
and potassium. All parts of
the watermelon are edible,
but whether you find them
palatable depends on your
own personal taste. Ever had
pickled watermelon rind?
And only guavas are higher
in lycopene than watermelon,
so if current studies that say
lycopene may play a role in
the prevention of cancer and
heart disease are true, theres
another good reason to eat it.
Now, about that berry
business.
Botanically, a berry is a
simple fruit having seeds and
pulp produced from one ovary.
The watermelon qualifies,
and is a type of berry called a
pepo, which has many seeds
and a tough outer skin. Other
fruits that you may not have
known are berries are bananas,
tomatoes and pumpkins.
You might want to tuck this
information away for the next
time you play Jeopardy!
A native of southern Africa,
watermelon grows well here in
Ohio, provided it gets an early
enough start in the spring.
It takes two to three months
of summer heat to produce
good ripe fruit. Theyre not
diffcult to grow from seed,
but seedlings are easy to fnd
in garden centers if you want
to get a jump on things.
Make sure you give the
vines plenty of room to roam
and regular feeding throughout
the growing season. For bigger
melons, some people plant
them in their compost and I
just might try that next year.
I doubt that Ill ever break the
record for growing the largest
watermelon; that honor goes to
Bill Carson, from Tennessee,
whose 1990 melon tipped the
scales at 262 pounds!
A few years ago, I grew an
heirloom variety called Moon
and Stars from seed. These
melons have dark green skin
with various sizes of yellow
spots on it (thus the name).
The plants grew beautifully,
but one day I noticed that the
leaves were looking like they
might have a problem. They
were showing some yellowing,
so I took to the internet to see
if I could fgure out what the
problem was.
It turned out that there
wasnt a problem at all.
Normal Moon and Stars
foliage is variegated and has
yellow spots, too! The season
went on and we harvested
several small melons. Though
they were interesting looking,
I never grew them again
because they werent sweet
enough for my taste, which
brings me to another point.
Since melons contain so
much water by volume, its
important that they receive
adequate moisture during the
growing season until theyre
just about ready to harvest. In
the last week or so of ripening,
withhold the water if possible,
because that will give you
sweeter fruit. The same goes
for muskmelon, which is
another favorite of mine.

Open Enrollment: A Great Time
to Review Your Retirement Plan
By Phil Recker
Edward Jones Advisor
If you work for a medium-
to-large company, you may
now be entering the open
enrollment period that time
of year when you get to make
changes to your employee
benefts. Your beneft package
can be a big piece of your
overall fnancial picture, so
youll want to make the right
moves especially in regard
to your employer-sponsored
retirement plan.
Take a close look at your
401(k) or similar plan, such
as a 403(b), if you work for
a school or a nonproft group,
or a 457(b), if you work for
a state or local government.
And keep these possible
moves in mind:
Boost your contributions.
If your salary has gone up
over the past year, or if
you just think you have a
reasonable cushion in
your disposable income,
boost your contributions to
your employer-sponsored
retirement plan. Even if you
cant afford to contribute
the maximum amount
which, in 2014, is $17,500,
or $23,000 if youre 50 or
older to your 401(k) or
similar plan, try to put in
as much as you can afford.
Remember the key benefts
of these plans: Your money
can grow tax deferred and
your contributions can lower
your annual taxable income.
(Keep in mind, though, that
you will eventually be taxed
on your withdrawals, and any
withdrawals you take before
you reach 59? may be subject
to a 10% IRS penalty.)
Dont miss the match.
Try to take full advantage of
your employers matching
contribution, if one is
offered. Your employer may
match 50% of employee
contributions, up to the frst
6% of your salary. So if
youre only deferring 3% of
your income, you are missing
half the match or leaving
money on the table, so to
speak.
Rebalance, if necessary.
You may be able to change
the investment mix of
your employer-sponsored
retirement plan throughout
the year, but you might
find that the best time to
review your holdings and
rebalance your portfolio
is during open enrollment,
when youre reviewing all
your beneft options. Try to
determine if your investment
allocation is still appropriate
for your needs or if you own
some investments that are
chronically underperforming.
And always keep in mind
the need to diversify. Try to
spread your money around
a variety of investments
within your plan, with the
exact percentages of each
investment depending on
your goals, risk tolerance and
time horizon. As you near
retirement, you may need to
lower your overall risk level,
but even at this stage of your
career, youll beneft from a
diversifed portfolio. While
diversifcation cant guarantee
a proft or protect against loss,
it can help reduce the impact
of volatility on your holdings.
Review your benefciary
de s i gna t i ons . Your
retirement plans benefciary
designations are important
and, in fact, can even
supersede the wishes you
express in your will. So if you
experience changes in your
life marriage, remarriage,
a birth or an adoption, etc.
youll need to update the
benefciary designations on
your 401(k) or similar plan. It
wont take much time today
and it can help prevent a lot of
trouble tomorrow.
You work hard for the
money that goes into your
retirement plan so make
sure your plan is working
hard for you.

Susan Hill Pieper, Library Director
THE LIBRARYS BOOKMOBILE SERVICE
When Andrew Carnegie funded the library
in 1912, it was with the agreement that the
library would serve the entire county through
some type of outreach service. In the frst
years of the librarys history, the county was
served through the main library in the Village
of Paulding and via an outreach service known
as deposit stations. These stations consisted
of a shelf of books that would be maintained
by a volunteer at that site. The stations were
located in grocery stores, gas stations and
other businesses throughout the county.
Unfortunately, these deposit stations were
not the best way to provide library service to
the entire county. The number of books was
limited and they were not switched out often
enough to meet the reading needs of many
citizens. In addition, volunteers were hard to
secure to manage and check out the books.
As the years passed, the boards of trustees
of the library found new ways to deliver
library service to outlying areas. For many
years they contracted with the State Library
of Ohio for bookmobile service. When the
State Library of Ohio stopped providing
Bookmobile service, the library had to fnd
another way to continue to serve the people
of the county. Branch libraries became the
answer.
The citizens of the Antwerp and Payne
branch libraries worked hard to establish their
brick and mortar buildings. The citizens of
the Village of Oakwood enjoyed their small
all-volunteer library for many years until
they requested to be merged with the county
system. This third branch opened in 2000.
Even with the three branch libraries, there
were still pockets of the population not being
served and the budget could not be stretched
any more to open and sustain more full-
service branches. Hundreds of residents of
outlying communities were still not being
reached by library service; so, in 2010 the
board of trustees made the decision to try to
fnd a Bookmobile to help solve the challenge
of serving the entire county. A Bookmobile
made fnancial sense. The board could provide
service to the unreached areas of the county
without having to build additional branches
(which cost almost $80K a year to operate).
It was Sue Thomas at the Oakwood branch
location who frst saw a small e-mail ad about
a Bookmobile for sale. For $3,000, we could
purchase a 1995 Blue-Bird bookmobile. We
would be the fourth owner of this unit. It
has served patrons in Arkansas and the rural
Appalachian mountain area of southeast Ohio.
The Bookmobile was stocked with over
2,000 items including books for all ages,
movies, and recorded books. There was a
computer on board for the staff to answer
reference questions for patrons not having a
computer at home. The schedule consisted of
areas not served by a branch library. Stops
include Grover Hill, Mandale, Melrose, Scott,
Haviland, Broughton, Briceton, Cecil and
Junction.
The Bookmobile is invaluable to those
families who use it. They depend on it
each week for their library materials. Most
Bookmobile users do not have transportation
or cannot get to a branch library for one
reason or another.
Since the Bookmobile began service in the
summer of 2011, almost 45,000 items have
been borrowed.
The Bookmobile also serves preschools,
Head Start programs, nursing homes and
assisted living facilities. Residents of the
nursing homes and assisted living facilities
are grateful for this special outreach service.
The children at the preschools and Head Start
programs not only get a chance to choose
their own books, but also listen to storytimes
and participate in reading programs all of
which are designed to help them develop their
reading comprehension and literacy skills.
The only two nursing homes the mobile
library does not visit are the ones located in
the villages of Antwerp and Payne. But, the
branch managers from the libraries in those
villages personally visit residents and bring
them library material.
So, we believe Andrew Carnegie would
be amazed. Not only by the responsible way
the library provides service to all citizens of
the county, but also by what is included in
the modern 21st century library. What would
he think of the computers, online databases,
eBooks and more? I think he would be very
proud and pleased.
Have you visited a branch library lately?
Autumn is a perfect time to take a country
drive and visit a branch or stop in at the
Bookmobile. All libraries in the Paulding
County Carnegie Library system use the same
library card. We hope to see you soon at your
nearest library location! For times, locations
and schedules visit the librarys website at
www.pauldingcountylibrary.org or call the
library at 419-399-2032.

Pastor Jeff Seger of the Paulding First Christian Church, Disciples of Christ with Paul Long,
president of the church mens group and Charles Simpson, church trustee, are among the men
preparing for a pancake and sausage breakfast this weekend to beneft Cookin for Missions.
Breakfast will be served from 7-11 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 18.
Breakfast to beneft hungry
children here and nationwide
By DENISE GEBERS
Progress Staff Writer
PAULDING Hungry children will
beneft from a pancake and sausage breakfast
hosted by the First Christian Church, Disciples
of Christ this weekend as part of a program
called Cookin for Missions.
Breakfast will served from 7-11 a.m. on
Saturday, Oct. 18 in the church fellowship
hall by members of the church mens group.
The menu includes pancakes, sausage, orange
juice and coffee.
A freewill offering will be collected.
Proceeds will help feed hungry children, both
here and across the country.
Cookin for Missions is a nationwide
program of the Disciples of Christ mens
program designed to assist in feeding hungry
children. Four missions around the country
receive half of the money raised in this
program. The other half is designated for local
use.
Paulding Exempted Village Schools No
Kid Goes Hungry program has been selected
as the local benefciary of this event.
This account was established by Tony
Gonzales Jr. last year to make sure no child
in the school would go without lunch due to a
lack of funds.
School offcials indicated the fund was used
26 times after it was put into place last school
year and ten times so far this school year.
We always appreciate any one who is
willing to put money into an account to keep
our kids from going hungry, said Paulding
Exempted Village School superintendent Bill
Hanak.
Others to receive donations from Saturdays
event are Inman Center in San Antonio, All
Peoples Christian Center in Los Angeles,
Kentucky Appalachian Mission in Berea, Ky.
and Yakama Christian Mission in Yakama,
Wash.
Paul Long, president of the local mens
group, said in 1994 the national mens group
had a similar program held for a certain
mission. Cookin for Missions eventually
developed from that event, within the past fve
years.
This is the frst year the Paulding men have
participated in this national program.
We dont know what to expect, but itll be
good, he said. Its for a good cause.
Long said the local mens group was re-
established this January after being inactive
for several years. Twelve to 15 men meet
monthly.
Additional projects have included working
with the denomination at its church camp and
around the state. They are also slated to assist
with an upcoming Fifth Quarter event of the
local Presbyterian Church.
We want to make a difference in the
community. Thats what we see as our
mission, concluded Long.
The First Christian Church, Disciples of
Christ is located at 1223 Emerald Road on the
northeast side of Paulding.
Annual Womens Retreat planned
at Paulding Presbyterian Church
PAULDING First
Presbyterian Church in
Paulding will present its 33rd
Annual Womens Retreat
on Saturday, Oct. 25 from
9 a.m.-2 p.m. Registration
begins at 8:30 a.m. The
church is located at the corner
of Caroline and Williams
streets (US 127), Paulding.
Thi s years t heme
is Remembering the
Bittersweet Moments of
Faith and features Vickie
Marsh Bierman as the main
speaker.
This event regularly draws
women from across northwest
Ohio and northeast Indiana
for a day of inspiration, faith,
music, and warm fellowship,
and includes a buffet tea
luncheon.
Vickie Marsh Bierman
is a forever friend and sister
in the Lord, shared long-
time retreat planner Becky
Fishbaugh. She ministered
at First Presbyterian Church
with her husband, Gary, over
30 years ago. Since that time,
she has been an adult Sunday
School teacher and has shared
her testimony with Christian
womens groups, mother/
daughter banquets, and other
church groups. Her words of
encouragement demonstrate
to women that God is able to
bring sweetness out of bitter
moments of sorrow.
Vickie lost the two men she
loved most in the world in a
tragic accident. She shares her
story of Gods faithfulness even
during her time of hurting too
much to pray. During that time,
she saw Gods Word come alive,
and His peace became hers.
Vickie and her second husband,
Jim, recently celebrated their
21st anniversary and have three
children, four grandchildren,
and a very special dog named
Buster.
In addition to the featured
speaker, attendees will enjoy
pianist Susan Kayser, who has
shared her exceptional piano
talents at the retreat for all of
its 33 years; organist Susan
Crossland on the classic First
Presbyterian Church pipe
organ; and dulcimer musician
Alice Meuleman.
Pre-registration is preferred
by Wednesday, Oct. 22, but
attendees may also register at
the door.
A fee of $12 covers the
day of faith, fellowship, and

The previously winless Antwerp third grade girls volleyball team (back row) won the fourth
grade and under tournament last weekend at MAC Gym in Antwerp. The Paulding team fnished
in second place.
Antwerp surprises and Tinora
dominates in MAC Gym volleyball
ANTWERP Two new volleyball
champions were crowned at the MAC Gym as
league tournaments completed last weekend.
The Antwerp third grade team came
off a winless regular season to upend the
undefeated Paulding team in two sets and won
the inaugural fourth grade and under division.
In the sixth grade and under division, the
Tinora Rams capped off a perfect 8-0 season
defeating Defance to take the title.
The day began with the Antwerp third grade
getting their frst win of the season, upsetting
the Antwerp fourth grade team. The win put
the girls into the title game with Paulding
and the momentum continued. When the
dust cleared, the Antwerp girls stood tall
with their second win of the season and the
championship medals in hand.
The improvement in all the young players
in this three team league was clearly evident.
These girls are the foundation of what could
grow into a great instructional league very
quickly.
The sixth grade and under division took
a lot longer to play with 10 league teams
participating. Early games had Defiance
Melissa knocking off Antwerp Sara, and
Edon beating out Antwerp Morgan. The
winning teams immediately went up against
the leagues best.
Defance Melissa played Tinora and came
out on the short end, while Edon took on
Paulding and Paulding prevailed.
Tinora and Paulding rested while Fairview
Black took on Antwerp Kara and Fairview
Gold played Defance Megan. Fairview split
their games, beating Antwerp but coming out
on the short end against Defance.
Tinora then took on and beat Fairview while
Defance put together a run and upset Paulding
to put the Defance County pair in the fnals.
Tinora dominated the championship game
winning in two sets, etching their name as
champion in the third annual event.
The fall league continues to grow as the
13-team league was the largest scheduled fall
volleyball league in the three short years of
scheduling at the gym.
UNDEFEATED SEASON The Antwerp seventh grade volleyball team went undefeated in the
2014 season with a record of 16-0. Members of the team include, front from left Chloe Saul,
Karsyn Brumett, Alyvia DeVore; second row Adison Hindenlang, Madison Boesch, Kaitlyn
Titus, Alyssa Fuller; back row Tabby Jones, Ellie Wolf, Sayge Bonifas, Heather Oberlin, Melanie
Wann and coach Danielle Friend.
JH teams take center stage at MAC Gym
ANTWERP Thi s
weekend brings junior high
school volleyball teams to the
MAC Gym in Antwerp. Six
teams from both Indiana and
Ohio will travel to the gym to
try and prove they are the best
team of the day.
The Mt. Calvary Lutheran
Church will sponsor the
third annual event. Previous
winners of the tournament
have been Emmaus Lutheran
Church of Fort Wayne and
Elkhart Trinity Lutheran,
Elkhart, Ind.
Pool play games will begin
at 11:30 a.m. Saturday to
allow teams time to travel into
town.
In the early games,
Woodburn Lutheran School
plays Lima Central Catholic
seventh grade while New
Haven Central Lutheran plays
the Lima Central Catholic
eighth grade.
At 12:30 p.m., Lima Central
Catholic eighth grade will
take on St. Bernard Catholic
from New Washington. At
the same time, Woodburn
Lutheran will play St. John
Lutheran, Monroeville, Ind.
Final pool games pit Central
Lutheran against St. Bernard
Catholic and St. John Lutheran
against Lima Central Catholic
seventh grade.
Once pool play completes,
the pools will cross with third
place teams from each pool
playing each other, second
place teams playing each other
and fnally frst place teams
playing in the championship
tilt at 3:30 p.m. to determine
tournament champions and
runners up.
This years tournament
proceeds will help offset
costs for a future planned trip
to the Creation Museum in
Petersburg, Ky.

Local, area EMAs
receive grant funding
PAULDING The Paulding County
Emergency Management Agency has
announced the awarding of $37,693 in
Homeland Security Grant Program.
The funds will go towards the purchase of a
portable 65KW generator, in the event of power
outage in a community in Paulding County or
the need for power at a critical incident.
The FY 2014 SHSP grant was part of a
fve-county regional approach to providing
equipment and apparatus to frst responders in
the region. Defance, Henry, Fulton, Williams
and Paulding County EMAs came together
three years ago to form the Black Swamp
Citizens Corps. This provides a regional
and a more desirable approach to receiving
grant dollars. To this point, it has been very
successful.
Along with the $37,693 in grant dollars,
the Black Swamp Citizens Corps has been
awarded a larger grant in the amount of
$124,505. These monies will be used for
purchasing apparatus to be used in the
northwest Ohio region.
The apparatus in question includes a mobile
air trailer for reflling of fre department
SCBA bottles at a large-scale incident. The
other piece of apparatus is a foam trailer, with
a 300-gallon tote of AR foam.
Paulding County EMA director Edward
Bohn has been attempting for a number of
years to acquire grant dollars to obtain this
vital piece of apparatus. With the increased
amounts of alcohol-based fuels traveling on
the highway and especially railroads, the
need for this special type of foam is crucial
in controlling vapors after a leak/spill occurs
or if a fre develops. These two pieces of
apparatus will be a tremendous asset to the
northwest Ohio Region.
Henry County EMA director Tracy Bush
has been instrumental in getting these grants
written and submitted, revised and submitted
again. Bush was also able to acquire additional
grant money in the amount of $51,580 for
needs within his county.
Altogether, $213,778 was awarded from
the FY 2014 SHSP Homeland Security Grant
Program. The apparatus and equipment will
be appropriated in the coming months.
Outside safety tips for
upcoming winter weather
By JIM LANGHAM
Feature Writer
Paulding County EMA
director Ed Bohn is concerned
that county residents make
preparation now for this years
onslaught of winter weather.
While not trying to raise a
panic, Bohn stressed that we
are not far from the time of
year when surprise early winter
storms can occur.
Winter storms and cold
temperatures can be hazardous,
but if you plan ahead, you can
stay safe and healthy, said
Bohn. Prepare your home and
cars. Prepare for power outages
and outdoor activity. Check on
older adults.
Bohn said that of primary
concern for winterizing
automobiles is servicing the
radiator and maintaining
antifreeze level.
Tire safety is of utmost
important in winter weather,
said Bohn. Quite obviously,
we dont want a tire to break
down in the midst of journey in
hard winter weather. If there is
any doubt about the tire, replace
with all-weather or snow tires.
Keep your tank full to
avoid ice in the tank and fuel
lines, continued Bohn. Use
a wintertime formula in your
windshield washer.
Bohn said that just as he had
advocated a winter emergency
kit for the house, the presence
of such items is also important
for outdoor travel. Items that
should be present in an outside
kit include blankets, food and
water, booster cables, fares,
tire pump and a bag of cat litter
for traction.
Other items could include
compass and maps, fashlight,
battery-powered radio, extra
batteries, frst-aid kit and plastic
bags. Stock food that needs no
cooking or refrigeration; store
water in clean containers.
Ensure that your cell phone
is fully charged, Bohn said.
When planning travel, be
aware of current and forecast
weather conditions.
Bohn stressed that those
going outside during severe
winter weather be aware of the
wind chill factor, work slowly
when doing outside chores and
try to have someone with you
as it is possible.
Bohn advocated that those
going outside in severe winter
weather consider the following:
Stay with your car
unless safety is no more than
100 yards awards away, but
continue moving your body.
Stay visible by putting
bright cloth on the antenna,
turning on the inside overhead
light (when engine is running)
and raise the hood when snow
stops falling
Run the engine and heater
only 10 minutes every hour
Keep a downwind window
open a crack, and
Make sure the tailpipe is
not blocked.
Above all, be prepared to
check on family and neighbors
who are especially at risk from
cold weather hazards. Look
after young children, older
adults and the chronically ill,
said Bohn. If you have pets,
bring them inside. If you cannot
bring them inside, provide
adequate, warm shelter and
unfrozen water to drink.
Vantage board tables tax exemption deal
By ED GEBERT
DHI Correspondent
VAN WERT What was expected
to be a mere formality turned out
to be anything but. On Oct. 2,
the Vantage Board of Education
decided to not vote on an Enterprise
Zone Agreement which would
have finalized a tax exemption
agreement for the newly announced
Advanced Biological Marketing Inc.
international headquarters facility
scheduled to be built in 2015.
The agreement was approved
by Van Wert City Schools and the
City of Van Wert, and was due to
be okayed by the Van Wert County
commissioners once the schools
approved the deal. However, the
Vantage board objected to not being
given notice of the agreement as
required by law and to the terms of
the agreement passed by Van Wert
City Schools. The Van Wert board
approved a 100 percent tax exemption
for 10 years. Vantage superintendent
Staci Kaufman recommended
approving the same deal.
My board clearly felt different
and that it simply wasnt acceptable,
Kaufman remarked. And it notifed
Van Wert County that in the future we
will be requesting compensation. We
werent given the chance to discuss
it. They just overlooked the (joint
vocational school) in the process.
Several board members explained
during the meeting that Vantage
always requests compensation in
exemption deals in any of the fve
counties it serves. Greg Reinhart of
Paulding Exempted Village Schools
reasoned, How can we forego
collecting taxes in Van Wert County
and then go back into our county and
try to pass a levy?
At frst, board members discussed
rejecting the deal, but then settled
on simply tabling the issue as a way
of clarifying that the action was not
intended as a rejection of ABM, but
as a protest of being overlooked by
Van Wert County.
The board strongly supports
Advanced Biological Marketing and
their addition, stated Pat Baumle of
Wayne Trace. I think that the board
has directed the superintendent to
contact the appropriate offcials from
Van Wert County so they understand
why the motion was tabled.
The compensation being sought by
the Vantage board will probably be
the maximum allowed in Van Wert
County, which district treasurer Lori
Davis believed to be 2 percent of the
propertys appraised value.
The motion to approve must be
considered at Vantages next board
meeting in November; many board
members hope the 100 percent
abatement will have already been
replaced by a deal that will allow
Vantage its compensation.
Adult education director Pete
Prichard brought the board up to date
on enrollment services, assessment
and guidance, ABLE programming,
student data and status, the Ohio
Lean Consortium, and the Adult
Education Institution Assessment and
Continuous Improvement Tool that
will be used for strategic planning.
High school director Ben Winans
shared information with the board
about the CTPD Report Card, Student
Appreciation Day, United Way Day
of Caring participation, Relay for
Life activities, planning for the fall
OGTs, the Oct. 24 Manufacturing
Open House, and eighth grade tours.
Items that were approved by the
board included the treasurers report
and fnancial statements, the adult
education incentive compensation
form, the job description for the adult
education lab assistant position, the
adult education school catalog and
student handbook, and an overnight
trip for the FCCLA at Van Wert to
travel to the fall leadership conference
in Marengo.
Supplemental contracts were
approved for student banquet
workers Logan Boroff, Justice
Canfield, Audrey Durham, Brady
Grime, Kacey Lindeman, Audrey
Merritte, Allie Mihm, Samantha
Ortiz, Marianne Perkins, Keli
Ralston, Draya Rison, Raine Salyers,
Sky Schooley, Marcy Shoppell, Zach
Wilkes, Amber Smith, Justis Harvey,
David Fisher, Marissa Armentrout,
Charles Walker, Austin Van Atta and
Cody Sill.
The board also approved adult
banquet workers Marcia Osenga,
Penny Baucom, Cindy Harting,
Diane Becker, Annete Klinger, Mary
Ann Hall, Beth Evans, Gail Gillett,
Vicki Smith, Nancy Keith and
Karen McGilton. Robin Burns was
approved as banquet supervisor.
Shirley Jarvis, Lynn Schweitzer,
and Tanya Bunch were approved as
STNA Check-offs, and Mike Miller
and Sarah Wurth were approved in
adult education.

Chewing sugar-free gum after eating
is clinically proven to be an important
part of good oral health. The action
of chewing sugar-free gum stimulates
the most important natural defense
against tooth decay saliva which
in turn helps fght cavities, neutralizes
plaque acids, remineralizes enamel to
strengthen teeth and washes away food
particles. Scientifc evidence clearly
shows that chewing sugar-free gum,
especially after eating and drinking,
has a positive impact on oral health.
Help your body naturally fght against
tooth decay by chewing sugar-free gum
after meals. Scientifc evidence clearly
shows that chewing sugar-free gum,
especially after eating and drinking, has
a positive impact on oral health.
Chewing sugarfree gum, like Orbit,
is an important part of a healthy oral
care routine. Chewing gum for 20 min-
utes after eating or drinking stimulates
saliva production by 10 times the nor-
mal rate. This neutralizes acids and can
help repair early tooth decay. Register

OSU Extension to host
tree pruning workshop
PAULDING Do you need
help identifying problems
with your trees? Would you
like to know how to correctly
prune your trees? The Ohio
State University Extension
office in Paulding County
and the master gardener
volunteers will be hosting
a free tree diagnostic, tree
evaluation and tree pruning
workshop on Oct. 16.
Even though the workshop
is free, space is limited to
150 registrations. Already,
more than 60 individuals
have signed up. RSVP is
requested. Registration will
be accepted the day of the
event. Preregister by calling
419-399-8225 or by emailing
Sarah Noggle at noggle.17@
osu.edu. Registration forms
are also available online at
http://paulding.osu.edu under
the Agriculture and Natural
Resources tab.
OSU Extension Educator
in Agriculture and Natural
Resources, Sarah Noggle
feels this workshop would
benefit Paulding County
residents. Over the spring
and summer, our office
has felded many questions
about trees anything from
planting, variety choices,
diagnosing problems, insect
damage to correct pruning
techniques with trees. I
am hoping by offering this
workshop, we have a chance
to educate our residents and
give the community a chance
to ensure the longevity of
the trees in the area, stated
Noggle.
According to the National
Arbor Day Foundation, trees
are a valuable environmental,
social, and economic beneft
to our communities. In some
cities, as many as four trees die
or are removed for each new
one added. And nationwide,
each day 2,400 acres of rural
land is absorbed for urban
use and most of the trees on
the land are not preserved.
Surveys indicated that about
66-100 million spaces exist
along our city streets where
trees could be planted. This
translates to the potential to
absorb 33 million more tons
of CO2 every year and at the
same time save consumers $4
billion in energy costs.
Some of the main facts
from the National Arbor
Day Foundation show the
extreme beneft of trees in our
communities. Trees properly
placed around a home can
reduce air conditioning needs
by 30% and save 20-30% in
energy used for heating. One
acre of trees absorbs six tons
of carbon dioxide and puts
out four tons of oxygen. This
is enough to meet the annual
needs of 18 people. Healthy,
mature trees add an average of
10-15 percent to a propertys
value.
One shade tree can
intercept 760-4,000 gallons
of rainfall in its crown (leafy
top) annually, depending on
species. This reduces runoff of
polluted storm water and can
affect the size of drainpipes
and retention ponds needed
in new developments saving
money for the community.
Hospital patients have been
shown to recover from surgery
more quickly and require
less pain medication when
their room had a window
that provided a view of trees.
Living in a home surrounded
by woods, meadows, or other
natural setting can increase
the attention capacities
of children and generally
improve their mental health.
The net cooling effect of
a young, healthy tree is
equivalent to 10 room-sized
air conditioners operating 20
hours a day. Nationally, the
60+ million street trees have
an average value of $525 per
tree each year.
This workshop is for
everyone. Trees are such
a valuable part of our
communities. The workshop
hopes to ensure the proper
care of the already established
trees in Paulding County.
This workshop can benefit
our homeowners, business
owner s , l ands capi ng
companies and even the
grounds keepers at all the
local businesses, said
Noggle.
The workshop will begin
at 8:30 a.m. with registration
at The Ohio State University
Extension Offce in Paulding
County, 503 Fairground
Drive, Paulding. The sessions
will be as follows:
Session 1: 9 a.m. - OSU
Extension educator Curtis
Young Tree Diagnostic
& Evaluation 9:45 a.m.
Question and Answer with
Curtis Young
Session 2: 10 a.m.

Tim Malinich 11 a.m.
Dismiss for Home
Please dress for the
outdoors as portions of the
program may be outside.
Handouts from the event will
be available in email form or
for a low cost.
I hope our Paulding County
and surrounding county
residents take advantage of
this event. If we see success
with this event, I hope to offer
more events like this next year.
OSU Extension has a hand
in creating better lives and
stronger communities through
these types of backyard and
community gardening type
workshops. Paulding County
needs our trees so lets just
help keep them alive! said
Noggle.
Free early childhood
screening is Oct. 24
A free developmental screening for children from birth to
age 5 will be held Friday, Oct. 24 at Payne Elementary.
The event will be held from 11 a.m.-2 p.m.
In case school is canceled, the screening will be held Nov. 7.
The early childhood years from birth to the start of
kindergarten are an important time of rapid learning and
growth. Early screening is a quick and simple way to identify,
at an early stage, possible learning or health concerns so that
children can get needed help before starting school.
This screening will be used for checking age-appropriate
development in the areas of communication, motor, cognitive,
social and adaptive behaviors. The event is coordinated by
Help Me Grow, Departments of Education, Paulding County
Hospital, Ohio Department of Health, NOCAC, Paulding
County EI/DD, Family and Children First Council, Antwerp
Local Schools, Paulding Exempted Village Schools and
Wayne Trace Local Schools.
Appointments are preferred, but walk-ins will be accepted.
Call 419-399-4620 or 1-877-473-8166 Ext. 41 for registration
information.
The next developmental screenings will be Jan. 16 at
Paulding Elementary and Oakwood Elementary.

Commissioners Journal October 1,
2014
This 1st day of October, 2014, the
Board of County Commissioners met
in regular session with the following
members present: Tony Zartman,
Roy Klopfenstein, and Nola Ginter,
Clerk. Absent: Fred Pieper.
MEETI NG NOTES OF
APPOINTMENTS
Phil Jackson, INSBIT; Carol
Temple, County Recorder; Jason
Landers, Sheriff; Travis McGarvey,
County Engineer; Brion Hanenkratt,
E-911; Robi n Dobbel aere,
Juvenile/Probate Court; Lou Ann
Wannemacher, County Treasurer;
and Claudia Fickel, County Auditor
Jackson explained the process of
installing new phones and Internet
using fber optics. He noted he will
work in one offce at a time. Jackson
anticipates the Internet change over
to occur some time in November.
County Engineer Travis McGarvey
discussed the damage to township
roads caused by heavy traffc using
the roadway to maintain wind
turbines. He noted there are oversized
and overweight loads traveling on
roadways that are not equipped for the
machinery, causing the break down
of the road. McGarvey emphasized
the importance of obtaining permits
from ODOT, his office, and the
township trustees.
County Treasurer Lou Ann
Wannemacher presented a letter to
requesting the transfer of fnancial
fles to a new company.
Brad Harmon, EDP Renewables;
Travis McGarvey, County Engineer
The commissioners spoke via
telephone with Harmon regarding
the road repair issues located in the
Benton Township wind farm. They
explained EDP Renewables had
been contacted in July of damage
to a township road due to oversize/
overweight equipment utilizing the
road to maintain wind turbines.
Harmon noted they would not
just repair a road until they could
do their due diligence by sending
an engineer to assess the damage
to determine the cause. McGarvey
explained the township trustees
want the traffic stopped until the
road has been repaired to handle the
weight. Harmon maintained EDP
wants to make sure they caused the
damage before they repair the road.
McGarvey stated other township
roads are not showing the same type
damage.
He also commented that the
township trustees have had to repair
damage in the past and they dont
want that to happen again.
The commissioners emphasized
the road agreement needs to be
followed. The commissioners
agreed we need a local engineer who
understands the road traffc in this
area to assess the damage.
Commissioner Zartman highly
recommended that Harmon call the
township trustees to assure a good
working relationship for current and
potential projects.
Sheriff Jason Landers presented
his intent to sell a vehicle. He briefy
discussed the idea of creating a
weight/scale team to closer monitor
traffc loads on the roadways.
County Auditor Claudia Fickel met
with the commissioners to discuss
the feasibility of hiring Maximus
again to determine cost allocation.
It was decided that the fee for the
work would be as much or more
than the amount the General Fund
could recoup. Fickel asked about
the viability of billing audit costs
to non-General Fund departments.
The auditors would need to provide
a break down to justify any cost
recovery to the General Fund.
EXECUTIVE SESSION
A motion was made by
Klopfenstein to go into executive
session at 8:06 a.m. with the Paulding
County Prosecutor to discuss legal
matters. The motion was seconded
by Zartman. All members voting yea.
At 8:43 a.m. all members present
agreed to adjourn the executive
session and go into regular session.

Pigskin Preview Week 8
Game: Antwerp (1-6, 0-4) vs. Tinora Rams (7-0, 4-0)
Time: 7 p.m. at Tinora
Last weeks result: Hicksville 50 Antwerp 20
Tinora 45 Fairview 0
Last years result: Tinora 48 Antwerp 20
This year: Antwerp 20.9 ppg.; 35.3 points allowed
Tinora 47.9 ppg.; 5.6 points allowed
This weeks match up: For the Archers, its not only one the road, but it is
against the top team in the conference, the top team in playoff points, and for
that matter one of the top teams in the state. The Tinora Rams allow less than
a touchdown per contest and although the Archers are averaging 27 points per
contest in their last three games, they are giving up 45. Maybe the Rams will be
looking ahead to next Friday when they play Wayne Trace.

Game: Paulding (1-6, 0-4) vs. Columbus Grove Bulldogs (3-4, 2-2)
Time: 7:30 p.m. at Columbus Grove
Last weeks result: Allen East 47 Paulding 7
Delphos Jefferson 36 Col. Grove 0
Last years result: Columbus Grove 15 Paulding 6
This year: Paulding 19.9 ppg.; 47.7 points allowed
Columbus Grove 23.3 ppg.; 29.3 points allowed
This weeks match up: After winning their first three games, the Grove has lost
four in a row including last Fridays 36-0 shutout to Delphos Jefferson. Unless
Paulding can find a way to stop the Bulldogs from scoring, it will be a long night
for the Panthers and CG will taste victory for the first time in a while.
Game: Wayne Trace (6-1, 4-0) vs. Hicksville (4 -3, 2-2 )
Time: 7 p.m. at Hicksville
Last weeks result: Wayne Trace 50 Edgerton 42
Hicksville 50 Antwerp 20
Last years result: Wayne Trace 43 Hicksville 7
This year: Wayne Trace 46.3 ppg.; 24.4 points allowed
Hicksville 28.6 ppg.; 33.9 points allowed
This weeks match up: Although many may have been hearing the fat lady
sing in the distance during the early part of the third quarter last Friday, the Wayne
Trace Raiders were playing a different tune by the time everyone exited Raider
Field. Coming back from a huge deficit in the first half the never-say-die Raiders
had what it took to pull out a heart-stopping 50-42 win over Edgerton. This week
its up-and-down Hicksville who will take a crack at the Raiders. Will the Raiders
be looking ahead to Tinora in a week? I dont think so.

Unbelievable rally keeps WT tied atop GMC

HAVILAND Edgerton
did everything it wanted to
do in the frst half of Fridays
Green Meadows Conference
football game at Raider Field.
The Bulldogs dominated
the line of scrimmage on
both sides of the ball and
the Edgerton offense was
clicking on all cylinders,
totaling 272 yards and 13 frst
downs in the opening two
quarters while posting a 28-
10 advantage.
However, it all changed in
the second half.
Wayne Trace answered
with 24 third quarter points
and rallied late in the fourth
quarter for a 50-42 victory
over the visitors from
Williams County to stay tied
atop the league standings.
It was a tale of two
halves and the Raiders were
fortunate to survive for the
win, moving to 6-1 overall
and 4-0 in the league.
What a game, noted
Raider head coach Bill
Speller. You have to give
Edgerton a lot of credit. They
came in here and played well.
They took it to us in the frst
half but our guys just never
gave up and we played with a
lot of heart.
Edgerton controlled the
opening two quarters. The
Bulldogs took the opening
kickoff and marched 73-yards
in eight plays, fnding the
scoring column on a 29-yard
touchdown pass from Duane
Miller to Alex Michael.
Wayne Trace would
answer late in the stanza as
Tyler Showalter scrambled
32-yards for a score to tie the
contest at 8-8 with 3:25 left in
the frst quarter.
The second quarter,
was all Edgerton. On the
ensuing possession after the
Raider score, the Bulldogs
put together an 11-play,
62-yard scoring drive that
encompassed 5:13 off the
clock.
Edgerton fnally found the
end zone when Dallas King
plunged three yards for a
touchdown at the 10:12 mark,
making it 16-8 Bulldogs.
While the Raider offense
was unable to string together
any drives, it was their
defense that would provide
points.
After a 43-yard punt by
Wayne Traces Nick Glass
put the Bulldogs on their one-
yard line, King was stopped
in the end zone for a safety to
get the Raiders within 16-10.
Edgerton would answer
with 22-yard touchdown pass
from Miller to Michael to
push the margin to 22-10.
The Bulldogs would add
another score on a three
yard run by King with 20.6
seconds remaining to widen
the Edgerton halfme lead to
28-10.
We didnt go in screaming
or yelling at halftime,
Speller continued. We
made a few adjustments but
they (Edgerton) really didnt
do anything that we didnt
expect. We changed some
of our alignments up front
offensively and ran some rub
routes in the second half that
seemed to cause them some
confusion.
After totaling only four
frst downs and 101 yards of
offense in the frst half, the
red-white-and-blue was much
more effcient in the third
quarter.
Sparked by a 26-yard punt
return from Jake Dingus,
Wayne Trace started its
second possession of the
second half at the Bulldog 49.
Tyler Showalter an 11-
yard pass play, coupled with
an Edgerton personal foul,
moved Wayne Trace to the 23.
On the next play, Tyler
Showalter hooked up with
Seth Saylor for the 23-yard
touchdown toss that seemed to
spark the Raiders.
Following a poor Bulldog
possession that forced a punt,
the Raiders took advantage.
Starting from its own 25,
Wayne Trace needed only
six plays to fnd the endzone.
Tyler Showalter connected
with Daron Showalter on a 22-
yard scoring strike that got the
Raiders within 28-26.
Trailing by two, Tyler
Showalter would put Wayne
Trace in front for the frst time
at 34-28 with 38 tics on the
clock.
Our guys showed a lot of
heart tonight, Speller noted.
They could have quit or they
could have gotten down on
themselves but they didnt.
They came out and made
plays in the second half and
got the job done.
Edgerton would go back in
front when Miller connected
with Michael on a 28-yard
touchdown pass. Millers
extra point conversion kick
put the Bulldogs on top 35-34
with 9:50 remaining.
After Showalters frst
down pass was intercepted
by Edgertons Isaiah Nichols,
the Bulldogs were again in
business.
Facing a third and eight at
its own 35, Landon Thiel came
in as Edgertons quarterback
and proceeded to hook up with
Miller on a 65-yard scoring
strike that put the Bulldogs on
top 42-34 at the 8:06 mark.
Edgerton came back and
got the lead and our kids just
stepped up and wouldnt be
denied, added coach Speller.
I just give our kids a lot
of credit. They were very
resilient.
Wayne Trace needed only
two plays to tie the contest.
Tyler Showalter spotted David
Sinn on an 18-yard touchdown
toss to knot the score at 42-42
at the 7:36 mark of the stanza.
After Edgerton failed to
get a frst down on its crucial
possession, the Raiders would
take advantage. Needing only
fve plays to take the lead
for good, Tyler Showalter
connected with Daron
Showalter in a fve-yard toss
with 4:50 remaining.
In their fnal push, Edgerton
drove to the Wayne Trace
33 before coughing up the
pigskin and Raider Chuckie
Chastain recovering to seal
the win.
Its a win and thats the
big thing, concluded Speller.
It wasnt easy but the guys
battled through and found a
way to get it done. We have
things that we have to get
better at and we will work on
them. But I am just so proud
of these guys and the way they
came back tonight and didnt
give up.

COUNTDOWN While
the Raiders were struggling
mightily, the Tinora Rams just
continued to dominate the rest
of the league. The green and
white rolled past county rival
Fairview (1-6, 0-4) 45-0 to
move to 7-0 overall and 4-0 in
the conference. Wayne Trace
and Tinora will meet on Oct.
24 at Raider Field in a game
expected to be for the outright
league championship.
Elsewhere in the GMC,
Ayersville (6-1, 3-1) cruised
to a 62-12 win over Holgate
(3-4, 1-3). In the other
conference tilt, Hicksville (4-
3, 2-2) cruised to a 50-20 win
over Antwerp (1-6, 0-4). The
Raiders will visit Hicksville
on Friday.
Allen East slows Panthers steps 47-7 at home
By JIM LANGHAM
Sportswriter
PAULDING Allen Easts defense
slowed down the Paulding rushing game
on Friday night while loading their own
running back to overwhelm the young
Panthers 47-7 at home.
Both teams came into the contest
looking for a Northwest Conference win.
In the end, Allen East improved its overall
record to 3-4 and 2-4 in the league while
Paulding dropped to 1-6 overall and 0-4 in
conference play.
Paulding head coach Kyle Coleman
continued to be understanding of his
youthful talent and noted that his Panthers
will continue to drill what its been doing in
practice.
Young quarterback James Mourey
connected on 11 of 22 passes for a total of
82 yards which included one touchdown
and one interception. The Panthers also
utilized the services of Lupe Martinez who
picked up 25 yards through the air in one of
four attempts.
On the ground, Paulding was led by the
rushing power of Preston Ingol who carried
the ball 14 times for 53 yards.
The lone Paulding score was once
again accomplished by Treston Gonzales
who was credited for 59 yards receiving,
including the teams only tally.
The Mustangs came out of the gate and
jumped to a 21-7 lead at the end of the frst
quarter and 41-7 crushing by the halfway
mark. The Panther defense held the visitors
to only one touchdown the fnal 24 minutes,
but the damage had already been done.
This Friday, the Panthers will travel
to Columbus Grove to take on a team
whose ego was bruised last Friday 36-0
by Delphos Jefferson on the Wildcats
homecoming night.
One of the biggest challenges for the
Panthers will be that of corralling Bulldog
quarterback Reid Stechschulte, who ran for
121 yards and passed for 124 yards against
Jefferson.
In the NWC race, things are shaping up
with Spencerville on top with a conference
record of 5-0 and 7-0 overall; Jefferson,
who vaulted to 4-1 in league play and 5-2
overall; and Ada, hanging on in third place
with a record of 3-2 in league action and
4-3 overall.
Spencerville will take on powerful
Crestview in Convoy this Friday and
then fnish with Vermillion and Jefferson.
In addition to this weeks encounter at
Columbus Grove, the Panthers will travel
to Bluffton before the fnal game with rival
Crestview the fnal game of the season.
The guys are working hard and they are
learning, said Coleman. Results on the
scoreboard are important but what the guys
are gaining in the whole program are also
very important. These are good kids and I
see encouraging individual achievements
each week.

By JOE SHOUSE
Sportswriter
ANTWERP Hicksville head
coach Lucas Smith had a couple of
Aces that were impressive in helping
deal the Antwerp Archers their sixth
consecutive loss of the season.
His junior quarterback, Garrett
Crall, directed the winning Aces on
the ground and through the air with
a variety of options. Crall, a junior
who stands 6-foot-4, has a powerful
arm as well as an equally impressive
rushing style, scored once on the
ground while hitting three different
receivers for touchdowns, including
Phil Karacson. At 5-foot-11, senior
Karacson also collected two scores
on runs of one and three yards.
Hicksvilles two Aces were enough
to post an easy 50-20 win over the
home team Archers.
Needing just four plays in their
opening drive to score and take an
early lead, Hicksville still gave the
Antwerp Archers opportunities in
the frst half to get the lead, as well
as the momentum, heading into the
dressing room at halftime.
Unfortunately, the blue-and-
white managed to capitalize on
one Hicksville gift but after that,
it was missed opportunities that
would turn costly for Archers, who
would eventually drop their fourth
GMC contest.
Trailing 8-0 after just over a
minute of play, Antwerp took
their opening drive just fve yards
following a delay of game penalty.
A Jarrett Bute punt to midfeld
was mishandled by the Hicksville
receiver, allowing an alert Justice
Clark to pounce on the live ball and
giving the Archers new life to
extend their opening drive.
With excellent feld position at
the 25 yard line, the Archers used
most of the remaining frst quarter
to advance to the end zone. An 11-
play drive was capped off with a
one-yard scamper when freshman
quarterback Josh Poulson pitched
to Clark for the score. The two-
point conversion try was stopped
and the Archers trailed 8-6 with just
45 seconds showing on the clock in
the frst period.
After a solid defensive stance
by Antwerp, the Aces were forced
to punt, giving the ball back to the
home team with decent position at
their own 39 yard line. The Archers
ran just one play with sure-handed
senior Nick Barnhouse coughing
up the ball and the Aces recovering.
Hicksville went to the air on their
frst play and came up empty and
followed with a no-gain rushing
play. However, on a critical third-
and-10, junior QB Garrett Crall
connected to Phil Karacson in the
end zone. The two-point try was
unsuccessful and the Aces were on
top, 14-6.
Using just 90 seconds and a drive
netting just fve yards (thanks to a
fve-yard Hicksville penalty) the
Archers punted the ball back over
to the Aces with just under nine
minutes remaining in the second
quarter. Crall mixed up his play
selection by gaining 23 yards on a
QB keeper while hitting Karacson
on a couple of short passes. Crall
took the pigskin across the goal
line on a 15-yard run with 6:27
remaining. Crall connected with
Johnny Giesige for the two-point
conversion and the Aces enjoyed a
22-6 margin.
The Archers stopped themselves
on their next drive when Poulson
was intercepted by Karacson.
Starting from their own 43 yard line
the Aces used an eight-play drive
to light up the scoreboard. Crall
fnished the scoring drive with a 10-
yard strike to freshman Jacob Greer.
The Aces led 28-6 at intermission.
In the frst half, when we
trailed 8-6 and had the ball in good
position, I thought we would score,
get the lead and hold the lead into
halftime, said Antwerp head coach
Drew Altimus. But give them
(Hicksville) credit, their line beat
our line and obviously they were
the better team tonight.
After exchanging punts to open
the third quarter, the Aces would
strike frst when Crall would spot
Giesige wide open for a 17-yard
score and a 34-6 lead with 3:02
remaining in the third.
Hicksville would add another
score in the opening minute of the
fourth stanza when Karacson would
rush for 31 yards followed by a one-
yard plunge for the score. Cralls
two-point conversion would be
good to increase the margin to 42-6.
Hicksville beat us in the
trenches. They have tremendous
speed and their quarterback is
big and his receivers had speed.
They simply outmanned us, said
Altimus.
Antwerp would play their best
football midway through the fourth
quarter. Clark needed just one
touch on the Archers drive when he
galloped 60 yards for an Antwerp
score. The Bute kick was good to
pull the lead to under 30 and take
away the running clock.
Hicksville was stopped on
their following drive when Bute
recovered an Aces fumble. The
defensive stop would set up the
next Archer score. This time,
Clark would use a 36-yard run to
outdistance the defense and score
his second TD in a four minute
span. The Bute extra point was
good and with 7:10 remaining the
Archers trailed 42-20.
The Aces completed their scoring
using an 11-play drive guided by
freshman QB Greer, who collected
the fnal seven yards and their fnal
points.
The Archers were unable to
generate much offense in the frst
half with just 50 rushing yards and
six yards in the air. The second half,
the Archers totaled 196 yards on the
ground with Clark fnishing with
166. For the game the blue-and-
white collected 246 rushing yards
and 26 passing on 3-of-9.
Hicksville ended the night
with 305 rushing yards and 118
yards in the air on 6-of-13. Crall
fnished with 167 yards rushing and
teammate Phil Karascon added 94
yards to lead the Aces.
Its disappointing because I
know we can play better and I
really believed this was one of
those games that we could win.
Now its on to next week and it
certainly doesnt get any easier,
Altimus concluded.
Antwerp, who falls to 1-6 overall
and 0-4 in GMC play, will be on the
road to play undefeated Tinora. The
Rams are 7-0 and were ranked No. 4
in the latest Division VI poll and No.
1 in the computer playoff rankings
for Division VI, Region 20.
Hicksville (4-3, 2-2) will be
playing Wayne Trace who escaped
last Friday with a 50-42 win over
Edgerton.

Sectional volleyball preview
Spikers get under way Thursday
By KEVIN
WANNEMACHER
Sportswriter
Sectional volleyball action
starts this week with a pair
of county teams opening
tournament play at home
tomorrow night.
Wayne Trace opens
sectional play tomorrow
night when the Lady Raiders
welcome in Riverdale for a 6
p.m. battle.
The Lady Raiders come
into the contest at 13-9 overall
on the season, coming off
of a pair of Green Meadows
Conference losses to Tinora
and Antwerp last week.
Seven seniors will take the
foor for the red-white-and-
blue looking to extend their
season. Addison Baumle,
Blair Baumle, Carrigan
Critten, Haley Saylor, Gina
Sinn, Mackenzie Swary and
Sarah Young all are in their
fnal year at Wayne Trace.
Leading the way for the
Raiders is junior Erin Mohr,
who tops Wayne Trace with
193 kills on the year. Young
adds 140 slams and 44 blocks
while sophomore Danae
Myers chips in with 101 kills
and a team-high 66 blocks.
Addison Baumle paces
Wayne Trace with 24 aces
on the season while Young
has 21 and Critten chips in
19. Saylor is the leader for
the Lady Raiders in digs with
275 followed by Swary at 230
and Addison Baumle with
229. Blair Baumle is the red-
white-and-blue setter with
456 assists.
The visitors from Hancock
County currently stand 10-12
in all matches and fnished
5-7 in their inaugural season
as part of the Blanchard
Valley Conference. The
BVC included Leipsic (19-
3), who awaits the winner of
the Wayne Trace-Riverdale
match on Saturday in Putnam
County.
Other key members of the
Blanchard Valley Conference
included McComb (21-0),
Arlington (19-3), Liberty
Benton (18-4) and Arcadia
(17-5).
The Falcons schedule
included six teams with 16 or
more victories on the season
and Riverdale opponents
combined for a record of
241-210 (.534 winning
percentage). Meanwhile,
Wayne Trace took on fve
teams that fnished with 16 or
more wins and all opponents
posted an overall record of
227-235 (.491).
Neither team has enjoyed
a lot of success against teams
with winning records. Wayne
Trace is 1-8 on the season
while Riverdale is winless
in 11 matches against teams
with slates better than .500.
Head coach Jenny Young
is in her ffth season at
Riverdale, which boasts a
roster that features three
seniors, fve juniors and four
sophomores.
We feel like we can be
very competitive, Young
noted. This was our frst
year in the Blanchard Valley
Conference and it is a very
good volleyball league. We
had hoped that we could have
a little more success than
what we ended up having
but the girls have improved
over the course of the season.
Our schedule is a challenging
schedule so it helps to prepare
us for tournament.
Sophomore Carrol Pauley
tops the Falcons in kills with
183 while junior Araeha
Dodge adds 108 and senior
Kaye Lynn Wise chips in 97.
The other seniors for
Riverdale include defensively
specialist Ashlynn Murray
and libero Molly Shultis.
Carrol is a very good
defender and plays the entire
court for us, noted Young of
her sophomore hitter. She
is a captain and has moved
over from being a setter last
season.
Serving wise, fve Falcons
have at least 20 aces on the
year. Dodge tops the squad at
29 followed by Carrol Pauley
(27), junior Taylor Farmer
(26), sophomore Cara Pauley
(22) and junior Aricka Hill
(21).
Taylor is our setter and
she also plays all the way
around, Young stated of
Farmer, who has totaled 348
assists this year.
Defensively, Aricka and
Cara are very, very good,
continued the Falcon head
coach. They do a great job
of getting to balls and keeping
them alive for us.
Hill leads the Falcons with
193 digs while Carrol Pauley
adds 149 and Shultis has
posted 135.
We dont know a lot about
Wayne Trace, but we know it
will be a challenge, Young
concluded. Its a long drive
for us so one thing we have to
do is come ready to play.
Meanwhile, Antwerp (14-
8) welcomes in Hilltop (6-16)
tomorrow night at the home
of the Archers.
The Cadets come into the
match having lost six of their
last seven matches, including
being swept by Buckeye
Border Conference champion
Pettisville last Thursday.
Hilltops wins on the
season have come over
Fayette (twice, both in three
games), Bryan (two games),
Continental (two games) and
North Central (twice, both in
three games).
The winner of the Archers-
Cadets matchup will advance
to play either Hicksville
(17-4) or Stryker (5-16) in
sectional fnal action Saturday
evening.
Paulding (5-17) received
a bye in the opening as the
Panthers await the winner of
Liberty Benton (18-4) and
Kenton (4-19).
Jaycie Varner tops the Lady
Panthers in kills with 115
while Brooke Combs adds 93
and Faith Vogel has posted
87.
Kristen Schilt has dished
out 225 assists for the
maroon-and-white with
Audrey Manz recording 153.
Morgan Riley paces Paulding
in digs at 346 and Vogel is the
squads top blocker with 104
while Cassidy Posey has 72.
Manz leads the Panthers
with 26 aces and Varner chips
in 17.

Ways to fireproof your home
A house fire can engulf and
destroy a home in a matter of
minutes. Even with the fast-
acting response of firefighters,
a home that has caught fire
may be irreparably damaged
by flames, soot and water.
Fire is no laughing matter,
and it behooves homeowners
to take precautions to
fireproof their homes as much
as possible.
The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention state
that although death and
injuries caused by residential
fires have declined gradually
during the past several
decades, fire-related deaths
continue to pose a significant
health hazard. In 2010, it is
estimated that someone died
in a fire every 169 minutes
in the United States alone.
A person was injured by fire
every 30 minutes, according
to the National Fire Protection
Association, Fire Analysis
and Research Division.
Most fires are largely preventable.
The following are a few
fireproofing measures
for safety-conscious
homeowners.
Install smoke detectors
and check the batteries
regularly. Smoke inhalation
causes many fire-related
deaths. A smoke detector
should be installed outside of
every bedroom and on every
level of the house. Dont
install a smoke detector near
a window, door or forced-
air register, where drafts
could interfere with the
detectors operation. Be sure
to routinely check that every
smoke detector is working
properly.
Have a fire extinguisher
in an easily accessible
location. Ideally, there should
be a fire extinguisher in every
room of the home, but at
the least keep one wherever
fire is used regularly, such as
a kitchen or by a fireplace.
Ensure the fire extinguisher
is charged and that you
understand how to operate it.
Remove combustible
materials from around the
house. Do not allow old
clothing, rags, newspapers,
or cardboard boxes to
accumulate around the
house. Discard newspapers
and magazines as quickly
as possible and be careful
to avoid storing anything too
close to heaters, furnaces or
electrical equipment.
Adhere to the
recommended wattage
in lamps and lighting
fixtures. Do not exceed the
recommended bulb wattage
for lights around the house.
There may be overheating or
shorting that can lead to fire.
Look for fireproof
interior decor items.
Nowadays, carpeting and
furniture can be coated with
fireproof chemicals. The
added investment may be
worth it in the long run.
Do not leave candles
unattended. Many people
like the look and aroma that
candles provide. Candles
also provide emergency
illumination in the event of
a power outage. Candles can
be easily knocked over and
start a fire. In fact, candles are
one of the top causes of house
fires. Never leave a candle
unattended, even for a short
amount of time. And certainly
never go to sleep without
extinguishing a candle.

Keep the chimney clean.
Inspect the chimney flue
regularly and have it cleaned
to prevent an abundance of
residual burnt material from
accumulating. This creosote
can catch fire itself.
Use a fire-resistant
roofing material. A roof
should be made from metal,
clay or asphalt tiles. Trim
any overhanging branches

or vegetation to reduce
the amount of combustible
material nearby.
Have a fire-safe wall
behind wood heaters. A brick
wall or another fireproof
material should be used on
any walls that house a wood-
or gas-burning appliance for
added safety.
Verify electrical safety.
Extension cords and power
strips should be kept to a
minimum, and the outlets
should not be overloaded.
Replace fuses properly and
dont be afraid to call a
certified electrician to verify
you are correctly set up.
By making a few tweaks
in and around the house, a
homeowner can decrease the
likelihood of a fire.
