A Bethany man is being held in Harrison County Jail on $100,000 bond after his arrest last week on four counts of child molestation.

Ethan M. Lamberson, 22, was taken into custody on Tuesday morning, Aug. 11, after federal, state and local officers conduct-ed a search at a home located in the 600 block of South 12th Street.

About a dozen officers, some wearing FBI jackets, hauled away several items from the residence in an operation that began at about 7 a.m. Tuesday morning. Persons were observed sitting on the front porch while the evidence was taken to un-marked official vehicles. The enforcement activity drew curi-

ous stares from several motorists who were driving past the home.

Later, Bethany Police Chief Bryan Holloway filed a prob-able cause affidavit in Harrison County Circuit Court accusing Lamberson of statutory sodomy involving an underage child.

Prosecuting Attorney Johna-than Meyer filed a complaint charging Lamberson with one count of statutory sodomy in the first degree for deviate sexual intercourse with a person under the age of 14 and two counts of statutory sodomy in the second degree. Meyer said the alleged acts occurred over the past seven years.

According to court docu-ments, Lamberson allegedly engaged in deviate sexual inter-

course with the victim on multi-ple occasions in 2010, when the child was only 12, and then on other occasions when the child was older but still underage.

Meyer said the FBI served a warrant for alleged child por-nography at the 12th Street address on Tuesday morning. The agents were accompanied by local officers who arrested Lamberson on state charges. Those charges were filed by the prosecutor’s office. Additional charges may be filed on the fed-eral level, Meyer said.

Lamberson was arraigned on Wednesday, Aug. 19, in the Associate Division of Circuit Court. A hearing will be heard on the bond on Aug. 19.

Nearly two years after the closing of Bethany’s KFC/Taco Bell restaurant, Taco Bell will be coming back to town as a stand-alone restaurant in November.

First Street Developent of Kansas City will begin renovat-ing the building east of I-35 on Highway 136 at the end of the month to meet Taco Bell’s stan-dards.

“It will essentially be a new building,” said Brandon Duffy of First Street. The interior will be completely remodeled with a new lobby and kitchen area. It will have a new stucco exterior and signage and an outdoor pa-tio.

The franchise will be owned by Royal City Bell LLC of Kan-sas City, Mo., which operates 61 Taco Bells in the Kansas City area.

Duffy said the company plans to have an open house in mid-November.

Taco Bell has already begun accepting applications for 20-25 positions at the restaurant. “We are excited to bring Taco Bell back to Bethany,” said Duffy. While Bethany may be small in size, he said, “the trade area and traffic patterns make this a desir-able location.”

The school year is fast ap-proaching and the topic on ev-eryone’s mind is safety. Schools in the county have released their reopening plans to give parents, students and faculty a heads up on what will be happening in the coming school year.

Todd Willhite, North Harri-son superintendent, explained, “We will be practicing social distancing as much as possible, mainly by grade level.” He also went on to say that less than five students have elected to do re-mote learning.

Ridgeway school reports that they currently do not have any students enrolled for remote learning.

Many of the requirements are the same for the schools, such as concerning the requirements of masks. No school in the county is mandating their students or staff to wear masks while at school, but gives them the op-tion to do so if they desire.

Ridgeway and North Har-

rison explain in their plans that they will have hand-sanitizing stations in each classroom along with hand wipes and other clean-ing supplies.

Cleaning will happen daily in classrooms after the end of the school day, buses will be sani-tized after each route and after any activities. Restrooms will be cleaned multiple times per day, more if there is an after school activity. Ridgeway also lists that all athletic equipment will be cleaned immediately after stu-dent use.

Teachers at both schools have been asked to screen themselves daily for any symptoms related to COVID-19 and for a fever be-fore coming into work.

Teachers are to report to the office if they begin to develop any symptoms throughout the day, which will then be dis-cussed with building administra-tion and decided if they are to be

By Phil CongerIt is impossible to overstate

the impact that Dr. Glenn Dean “Doc” Windom had on his ad-opted hometown in the span of 54 years since he moved here from Iowa to set up his veteri-nary practice.

Not only was Doc Windom Bethany’s only large animal vet in recent years, he also became one of the town’s most recog-nized and honored sports fan and a supporter of 4-H and FFA youth livestock projects.

This is the time of year that he would be helping young people, including his kids and grand-kids, prepare for the upcoming fair livestock shows. He was al-ways ringside at junior livestock sales at the Northwest Missouri State Fair, which had to cancel the event because of the pan-demic.

Doc had continued to work at his veterinary office up until a month ago when his illness got the better of him. As he got older, Doc came up with a sling contraption that made it possible for him to wrestle down massive bulls to get them in position for procedures.

At age 88, he had won profes-sional accolades from his fellow vets including the Missouri De-partment of Agriculture’s Ani-mal Veterinarian Award.

After graduating from high school in Lenox, Iowa, he went on to receive his doctor of vet-erinary medicine in 1966 from Iowa State University in Ames. He established his veterinarian practice in Bethany that same year.

He quickly became immersed in high school sports, attending most South Harrison basketball and football games home and away. On many Friday nights, he would be seated in the stands with his longtime amigos La-Verne Madison and Bob Mc-Daniel and other old Bulldogs. Even after their passing, he con-tinued to attend games across northern Missouri, wherever the Bulldogs were playing. When it became difficult for him to drive, younger Bulldog fans like Paul Thomas and Bill Ramey would make sure he had a ride to the games.

Doc Windom was never a boisterous fan. He was known for watching boys’ and girls’

games intently, offering his analysis in a quiet voice to peo-ple sitting next to him. A high school athlete himself, he knew a lot about sports.

When his friend Laverne Madison became ill and had to move into the Crestview resi-dential home, Doc spent sev-eral evenings watching Royals games with the former mayor. He and his wife Joan, who he married 58 years ago, often on Saturday afternoons would do

paperwork at the office with a college football game blaring in the background.

He received several honors over the years as an adviser to 4-H and FFA youths. One of his proudest moments came when he was honored by South Harri-son Bulldog Athletes as an Hon-orary Booster Club member.

The community lost a great friend with the passing of Doc Windom.

File photoBasketball fans: Dr. Dean Windom and his friend, LaVerne Madi-son, right, spent hundreds of nights together watching high school basketball.

South Harrison will welcome back their students next Tuesday, Aug. 25, with several health pro-tocols in effect to assure a safe opening during the pandemic.

While students and teach-ers will not be required to wear masks, it is suggested that they do so under recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control and the Missouri Department of Health.

Students will have a choice of distance learning or face-to-face classes. Superintendent Dennis Eastin said from 25 to 30 students have indicated that they plan to take part in on-line classes.

The school district has made arrangements to obtain “hot-spots” through a cell company for students who may not have access to a broadband connec-tion at home.

The high school has added another lunch period to spread out the students as much as pos-sible, according to Principal Ja-son Slaughter.

Changes have been made in serving procedures during lunch. Salads will be served in zip-lock bags while the cafeteria staff will dish out entrées indi-vidually to students rather than cafeteria-style.

With the drinking fountains shut down, pupils will be asked to bring bottled water from home. There will be five-gallon jugs of water with discardable plastic cups inside each class-room.

“Our hallway presents some-thing of a challenge,” Slaughter said, but added that contacts be-

tween students will be brief.Rather than use their lockers

between classes, students will be asked to carry their belongings in the backpacks. Seating will be assigned for all classrooms and for the cafeteria to permit trace contacting in case a student be-comes ill.

Both teachers and students have been asked to closely mon-itor their health by taking their temperature each day before school. Those who aren’t feeling well are urged to stay at home and receive on-line instruction.

City to bring back use tax proposalBethany will make another

attempt to get voters to approve a local use tax on purchases from out-of-state vendors such as Amazon.

The Board of Aldermen passed an ordinance Monday night to place the use tax on the ballot in the November general election.

Use taxes have been seen as a way to level the playing field for

merchants who have to charge sales taxes on items purchased in their stores. Bethany’s pro-posed use tax would be set at 1.875%, the same rate as the lo-cal sales tax.

Consumers would have to file a use tax return only if their pur-chases from out-of-state vendors amount to more than $2,000 in a calendar year.

Mayor Jonne Slemons said,

“There was a lot of confusion about what a sales tax is when it was presented to voters in the previous election,” she said. “It imposes the same tax on online purchases as local businesses have to pay.”

Officials say out-of-state ven-dors are taking money out of the local economy while hurting lo-cal businesses.

60 Years AgoAugust 24, 1960

Mrs. Gertrude White is cel-ebrating her silver anniver-sary this month with the J.C.

Penney Co. Mrs. White was first employed with the Bethany store in August 1935.

From Hatfield News: The barn on the Elmer Heyle farm was struck by lightning and burned to the ground. It was filled with hay and also contained some chickens and several sheep.

From Cainsville news: Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Weathers, son, Russell, and Miss Judy Cain attended the fair at Sedalia Monday and Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. Weathers and Russell are representing Harrison County as the outstanding farmers for the year.

40 Years AgoAugust 27, 1980

The Interstate Commerce Commission last week affirmed the decision of an administrative law judge granting Burlington Northern permission to abandon the branch railroad line from St. joseph, Mo., to Humeston, Iowa, a step, which may soon end rail

service to Bethany and other Harrison County communities.

20 Years AgoAugust 30, 2000

The unbearable heat that has been affecting Kansas City and points south finally made its way to Harrison County Monday where high temperatures neared 100 degrees.

The on-again, off-again Cains-ville sewer project sustained yet another serious blow last week when the Missouri Department of Economics Development (DED) rejected the city’s appli-cation for $105,000 in additional grant funds for the wastewater system.

The Harrison County com-missioners postponed action Monday on a proposed ordi-nance regulating concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) in the county after hearing from some livestock producers who believe the ordi-nance may be too restrictive.

I played in a celebrity golf tournament in Oklahoma City a while back. Now, I’ve been to a few celebrity team ropings, a couple celebrity stock dog tri-als, a million brandings and one celebrity rock pickin’—but this was my first celebrity golf tour-nament. Generous people paid a lot of money to play golf with well-known folks. The money was donated to help the blind.

I got in the golf cart with a feller named Phil. He asked me what my handicap was. I couldn’t think of anything real bad except an addiction to Mir-acle Whip; however, I was told at one time that my nose would qualify me for handicapped park-ing. He asked me how well I played. I said not too well. I’m sure he thought I was bein’ mod-est, because after the first hole he turned to me and said, “You re-ally don’t play golf too well, do ya?”

You play eighteen holes to a game. I don’t know why they invented that number. You would have thought they’d play ten or a dozen or an even twenty; but for some reason, they chose eigh-teen. Probably the first golfer just played ‘til his arms were sore and

decided that was enough. When you get down to the

nitty-gritty, there are two weap-ons you use in the game: the driver and the putter. First you line yourself up between two swimming-pool floats and “tee

off.” This is done with the driver, which is a fly rod with the handle sawed off. Only my gun-bearer and guide know which way to aim. He’d stand up beside me and point off to the horizon. Then tell me to hit the ball off in that general direction. It was always necessary to clear the spectators back 180 degrees from my line of fire. It was impossible to predict

which direction my ball would go. By the third hole, we’d traded our golf cart in for an all-terrain vehicle and the rest of our four-some was driving an armored personnel carrier.

Once you make the green it is recommended that one use a putter. The only comparison I can make to putting is that it’s like shooting the eight ball on a table the Navy has been landing planes on for three days! I think I could have dropped the ball from a hovering helicopter and had a better chance of hitting the hole. Finally, they let me putt with a snow shovel. They said it im-proved my game.

A nice feller lent me his golf bag and a pocket full of balls. I lost six of them. I was ashamed to tell him. I’m sure he thinks I stole ‘em. I lost so many balls that we eventually rented a back-hoe for the sand traps and hired two scuba divers to join our cara-van.

They haven’t asked me back. But maybe I’ll get invited to a celebrity bowling tournament; at least I won’t lose as many balls.

1921-1930The Roaring Twenties. Pro-

hibition of alcohol was in full ef-fect, although Harrison County had prohibited it years before. Stopping the manufacture of alcohol didn’t stop the con-sumption, however. Bootleg-gers made their own, and Rum-runners brought it in from other countries. Illegal sales of alcohol led to organized crime in many cities. Still, the economy was booming, the war was over, and newly elected President Warren Harding promised a ‘return to normalcy’.

There was talk about the ‘new normal’ even back then. There were a lot of great things that took place in the 1920s. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was dedicated on the new holi-day, Armistice Day, celebrating the end of WW I. The Lincoln Memorial was dedicated on the mall in Washington, D.C. “Lucky Lindy”, Charles Lind-bergh, completed the first solo flight across the Atlantic and became America’s biggest hero. Babe Ruth hit his 60th home run, a record that would stand

Reflections

Farms were lost during Depressionfor nearly 50 years. “The Jazz Singer” brought sound to the movies for the very first time. The stock market was soaring higher than anyone ever imagined.

All good things come to an end. In October of 1929, the stock market crashed, partly be-cause of excessive amounts of

borrowed money used to buy the stocks. President Harding died of a cerebral hemorrhage, and was replaced by his Vice Presi-dent, Calvin Coolidge. Multiple

scandals were uncovered after Harding’s death, most notably the Teapot Dome Scandal. This involved the Secretary of the Interior accepting bribes to sell oil drilling rights to private com-panies. Coolidge was elected to a term of his own in 1924, and then chose not to run in 1928. Herbert Hoover was elected, and became the president in charge of the first few years of what is known as the “Great Depres-sion”. One of his solutions was to raise tariffs on goods from other countries, which led to those countries raising tariffs on our goods, which led to a stale-mate in which no one bought anyone else’s goods.

Millions of Americans were unemployed, and there was no assistance available for them. Banks across the US failed as people went in droves to pull out their cash. There was no deposit insurance, so many people lost everything. I talked with a cou-ple once who told me they lost their farm because they didn’t have the $5 monthly payment. Times were beyond tough.

Here at home, the Bethany Fair became the Northwest Mis-souri State Fair. The beautiful and luxurious 45-room Heilbron Sanitarium near the limestone falls in the west end of Bethany, burned to the ground. One new highway crossed the county from east, Mt. Moriah, to west, New Hampton. It was known then as Highway 4, today’s U.S. Highway 136. There were plans being drawn up to build a state highway from Springfield to Bethany, but the exact route of Highway 13 hadn’t been de-termined yet. “Farm to Market Roads”, the ancestors of the let-tered state highways, were grad-ed but not graveled yet.

Most of the smaller commu-nities had electricity, but it was only available a couple days a week (Monday for wash day, for example) and a few evenings. The final two high schools in Harrison County made their ap-pearance on opposite corners: Hatfield and Melbourne. Mel-bourne offered only one year of high school at first.

The 20s were the best years for many towns, and many may have reached their highest popu-lations, but by the time the cen-sus was taken in 1930, popula-tions were dropping. Harrison County lost over 12% of its population, down to 17,233. Un-fortunately, hard times were just beginning.

After several days of flat numbers, Harrison County add-ed another COVID-19 case on Monday, according to the Harri-son County Health Department.

The latest case brought Har-rison County’s number of diag-nosed cases to 60 since the re-porting began. The county has only one active case with 58 released from isolation and one death.

According to the health de-partment, five cases have in-volved people under the age of 20.

Cases reported by nearby counties: Gentry County, 87 cases and 9 deaths; Grundy, 30 cases and 1 death; Mercer, 15 cases; Nodaway, 242 cases; Worth County, 9 cases, and Da-viess, 9 cases.

Slaughter said the students will have live access to their classroom through the video system and will receive their as-signments from their teachers.

Eastin said the classrooms and restrooms will be cleaned frequently during the day. School buses will be cleaned be-tween each run. There will also be hand sanitizer on the buses.

An effort will be made to spread out the students on the bus. “We are asking that families sit together on the bus,” he said.

The third annual Farm, Fam-ily & ME Summit for Women focuses on resilience, financial and farm stress, self-care, and mental well-being.

The free virtual event is 9 a.m. to noon Thursday, Sept. 3, says Karisha Devlin, a University of Missouri Extension agricultural business specialist and one of the organizers of the event.

“Women are the caretakers of their families and often put themselves at the bottom of their priority lists,” Devlin says. “We hope this conference reminds them to take care of themselves along with providing resources and educational information.”

Rural mental health special-

ist Monica McConkey kicks off the Zoom session with “Put on Your Oxygen Mask!” She offers tips on coping with farm stress through self-care and techniques to strengthen mental well-being.

Highway Patrol arrests

A Bethany mother was arrest-ed on charges of drunk driving and endangering the welfare of her children after she was found intoxicated late Thursday night in a car parked in front of the NTA ambulance office in Beth-any.

Bethany Police Officer Wil-liam Quigley was notified by NTA personnel that a woman was sitting in the front seat of the car with keys in the ignition and the vehicle idling in park shortly before midnight. Quigley stated

in a probable cause affidavit that the driver smelled strongly of alcohol and could not speak in coherent sentences.

The driver, identified as Amy Force, 29, who lives in Bethany, agreed to take a breath test at the Harrison County Law Enforce-ment Center where she showed a blood alcohol content of .239.

Quigley said a red passenger car arrived in the NTA building with three children in the vehi-cle. The driver said the children walked up to her residence on

South 15th Street. They were identified as Force’s children ranging in age from 5 to 8.

“Force stated she left the chil-dren at home by themselves,” Quigley said, but “on a recording of the security camera located at the NTA ambulance building, the children are visible walking past the front door of the build-ing walking towards Vandivert Street without their mother.”

Prosecuting Attorney Johna-than Meyer charged Force with three counts of endangering the

welfare of a child creating sub-stantial risk, driving while in-toxicated as a prior offender and driving while intoxicated with a blood alcohol content nearly three times the legal limit.

Force appeared for arraign-ment Monday morning in the Associate Division of Harri-son County Circuit Court. The court denied Force’s request to reduce her $5,000 cash bond and set a bond hearing for today (Wednesday).

Teachers are to encourage and establish routine hygiene proce-dures within the classroom and develop a seating chart, which should be followed daily.

Ridgeway will be installing touchless faucets, towels, soap dispensers and sanitizing sta-tions throughout the school. They will also have water bottle filling stations implemented in-stead of drinking fountains.

Students are to be screened at home for fever or symptoms before coming in to school each day. Schools ask that if they are experiencing any symptoms “please not come to school”. Schools ask that students avoid sharing items on the bus or in school and to not leave per-sonal items laying around in the school.

North Harrison states in their plan that “in an effort to limit the number of people in our buildings, parents, guardians, visitors, etc. will not be allowed in the building. If you need to leave something for your child, pick your child up early, etc. please contact the building of-fice to make arrangements.”

Bus drivers will also be asked to screen themselves daily, checking for fever and symptoms. They are not required to wear a mask but may do so if they want to. They are asked to establish a seating chart for stu-dents and ensure that it is followed,

trying to have family members sit together when possible.

Gilman City released their re-opening plans, which includes the recommendation to wear facemask and social distancing. The school will provide masks for those who need one.

Gilman City has one student signed up for remote learning. Cainsville has none.

The school will have assigned seats in the classroom, on the bus and during lunch.

Cleaning and sanitizing proce-dures align with those that other Harrison County schools are con-ducting. Cainsville as well.

Gilman City junior high and high school students will not be allowed to congregate in the hallway and in-stead will be directed outside to the front lawn or spaced out in the gym. Elementary teachers will be en-couraged to conduct recess outside, weather permitting, if using the gym classes will be limited.

Gilman will have two dismissal bells to help with social distancing. The first bell will be for bus riders, the second bell will be for car riders and walkers.

Parents will not be allowed in the building during dismissal to pick up children.

Face coverings are optional at Cainsville school, but masks will be on hand for those who need one or who wear inappropriate masks.

Both schools require students and staff to self-monitor at home before coming to school and to not go in if they have a fever or any co-vid-19 related symptoms.

“There are times when the thingmost responsible for yoursuffering is your own mind.” -

Yuval HarariThe above remark by the Israeliauthor Yuval Harari was made to areporter on a plane waiting for take-off which had been delayed, after aman stormed to the front of the planeand demanded to be let off. If you’veever sat on a plane and waited 30 or40 minutes for take-off, you canprobably empathize with that man,knowing how easy it is for mildanxiety to turn into panic. Manypeople feel claustrophobic on planesand have to remind themselves thateverything will be okay, and there isno reason to panic over a delay.Missing a connecting flight can seemlike a tragedy, but it happensthousands of times every day. Thehuman mind is a wonderful thing; itallows us to plan for the future andconsider different ways of handlingdifficult situations. But it can also be asource of tremendous suffering. Howmany of us have lain awake worrying

about something that never came topass? We imagine the worst and thencan’t stop worrying about it. Evenmore troubling is the way in whichwe can suffer from things in the past,which we have absolutely no power tochange. We’ve all made mistakeswhich we regret, but the wise persondoesn’t dwell on them and simplytries not to repeat them. In this samecategory of things from the pastwhich we cannot control are real orperceived wrongs that have beencommitted against us. We often stewover something that someone said ordid, creating bitterness and rancorin our hearts. It is best to live inthe present, and enjoy it as a giftfrom God. –Christopher Simon

“Therefore do not worry abouttomorrow, for tomorrow will worryabout itself. Each day has enoughtrouble of its own.”Matthew 6:34 NIV

Most of you probably heard

about the wild windstorm called a derecho that swept across Iowa, late Monday afternoon. Well, the Cedar Rapids, Iowa, area was one of the hardest hit areas. Laurie Carpenter and Em-ily, William, and Abbi Taylor live in Mt. Vernon, Iowa, which is just east of Cedar Rapids. They all work in Cedar Rapids. Fortunately, they are all safe. They did suffer some damage to the garage and lots of limbs were down. They were without electricity until Friday evening. Sophie Ryan loaded up supplies from her place and stopped by Liz Carpenter’s Tuesday after-noon to pick up some fuel and other items to take to Laurie, Emilie, William, and Abbi to

help them out. She also spent most of the week there helping with clean-up. Thank you, So-phie! Please keep all the folks affected by the storm in your prayers and help them out if you are able.

Liz Carpenter and Lamoni Middle School teachers Linda Perkins, Holly Howell, and Na-than Silver had a work session at Slips Bluff Park Tuesday morn-ing to start planning for a few days of School of the Wild and Outdoor Day coming up in Oc-tober. They are always looking for exciting ways to engage stu-dents in learning. Let’s all pray that school will be in session so the kids can experience the fun of learning outdoors.

Wednesday morning Liz Car-penter made a trip to Kansas City to attend a training ses-sion with her sister. Liz returned home that afternoon.

Thursday afternoon and Fri-day, Liz Carpenter attended Lamoni Middle School student orientation.

Holly and Little Benson Parkhurst spent a lot of time getting Holly’s classroom ready this week. They also enjoyed Axel Lane’s birthday party Sat-urday.

Little Kipton Lane is closing in on three months old and his family is enjoying Little Kip more and more. He’s starting to smile and coo more often. Won’t be long until he is crawling around and talking.

South Harrison football play-ers are practicing as if their first game of the season will be on Aug. 28 at East Buchanan. But that is less than a certain thing in this fall of shifting MSHSAA guidelines and health department orders.

“We are less than two weeks away from our first game and I don’t know for sure we will play the game,” Bulldog Coach Chris Schoning said on Saturday.

A lot will depend upon what happens over the next few days as the schools across Missouri begin to open during the current COVID-19 crisis.

South Harrison is committed to play fall sports, but there are some schools deciding to move to a spring season.

There are high expectations around this year’s Bulldogs who are coming off one loss during the regular season and after being upset in the final game tied with Princeton and Gallatin for the Grand River Conference cham-pionship.

“We have a good senior class and a very experienced line,” Schoning said. “They remember everything we taught them last year.”

South Harrison has an enthusi-astic group of 38 players who are pumped about the start of the sea-son following the isolation they experienced when school abrupt-ly was dismissed and spring sports were canceled because of the pandemic.

“The boys have a lot of ener-gy,” the Bulldog coach said.

The coaching staff has been taking extra precautions during practice, sanitizing equipment and asking the players to take their gear home at night for clean-ing.

Schoning said the coaching staff hopes to schedule a jambo-ree before the start of the season. If they can’t, they will be holding an inter-squad scrimmage at 6 p.m. this Friday night at Memo-rial Stadium.

Optimism around this year’s Bulldogs is centered around the return of their senior quarterback, Austin Lasher, who is stronger and has improved his passing skills. Lasher poses a problem for opposing defenses because he can do as much damage with his legs as his arm.

Schoning said the Bulldogs will be working on getting the ball more to their dangerous end

Braydon Sunderman, who was a force last season. They also will be using Justice Cook as wing-back and Braden Spurling as tight end. Fullback Graydn Linthacum should be a dominant force out of the backfield.

South Harrison, like other schools across the state, will have to deal with the shifting regula-tions coming out of the Missouri State High School Activities As-sociation which still hasn’t de-veloped a cohesive set of rules for how sports will be played this year. For instance, MSHSAA an-nounced a couple of weeks ago that students enrolled in virtual classes rather than face-to-face classes would be ineligible to participate in sports. But, just last week, the athletic association re-versed course and said they will be able to compete.

In the association’s defense, the governing body has had to deal with a myriad of issues for the largest schools in big cities to small schools in rural Missouri.

With just over a week to go before the official start of the season, on Aug. 28, “there are so many unanswered questions,” Schoning said.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol released the results of the annual school bus inspection program for 2020. The ratings included approved, defective, and out of service buses. Those buses receiving an approved rat-ing passed the initial inspection. A rating of defective means that

corrections for components were addressed within 10 days of when the defection was found. Buses placed out of service re-quire a correction before the bus can be used any further.

Local schools results are as follows: Cainsville had two buses in service, both received a

100% approval. North Harrison had five buses in service with an 80% approval and 20% were de-fective. Ridgeway had two bus-ses that were both considered defective. South Harrison had 19 buses with a 57.9% approval and 26.3% were defective and 15.8% taken out of service.

WEDDING BELLS Morgan Mulnix, daughter of Randy and Kana Mulnix of Bethany, Mis-souri and Hunter Langfitt, son of Aaron and Lorrie Davis of New Hampton, Missouri were mar-ried on August 8th, 2020. The ceremony was held at Prairie Chapel Church in Bethany, Mis-souri with Pastor Tim Wilson of Coffey Baptist Church officiat-ing. Given in marriage by her father, the bride was attended by her sister McKenzie Ward. The groom’s brother Dylan Hol-loway served as his best man, both wore jeans and white but-ton down shirts with Hunter also sporting a vest. The colors of blush, burgundy and sage were carried out in the dress worn by the Matron of Honor and in the bouquets carried by the bride and her sister. The flower girls were Eden and Emmy Holloway and Lakyn Ward, each wore a flower circlet in their hair. The ring bearer was Lane Ward. The decorations were those of a country wedding, touching on interests that both bride and groom share including deer ant-lers for their love of hunting.

Mason jars held flowers on the tables and lanterns and flowers completed the decor. The wed-ding cake was a traditional white cake iced to look like birch bark with offset layers. The cake was made by Cory Smith of St. Jo-seph, Missouri. Christy Clark made cupcakes and Black Cher-ry Slush Punch to complete the refreshments. Serving cake and punch to guests was Avery and Piper Myers and Barb Mor-gan. The bride’s makeup was done by Alica Zornes of Boli-var, and her hair was arranged by Amber Parkhurst. Vicki Vandervirt arranged the flow-ers that were provided by The Blessed Nest. Photographing the wedding was Amber Briggs & Co of Eagleville, Missouri. Everyone gathered outside for the tossing of the bouquet and garter, and rained birdseed down upon Hunter and Morgan as they left in his 1972 Chevy pickup. After a honeymoon out West, the couple will be at home in New Hampton. Hunter is self-employed and Morgan is self-employed and also employed by Schuring & Uitermarkt and both

are involved in farming.SCHOOL NURSE Lorrie

Langfitt will be the new school nurse for SHHS and we all know she will do a fine job being there for the students. SHHS is gain-ing a fantastic nurse and we are so proud of our Mayor!

CITY PARK UPDATES The small shed up at the City Park received a much needed face-lift thanks to our Fire Depart-ment, they donated some of their used metal siding and roofing to help fix it up. This building sits on the site of the original City Hall. The chimney had leaks so it was taken down and then Seth and Shiloh Peters and Kenny Neff and Nick Steinhurst of Neff Construction installed the metal roofing. With white for the roof and red for the gables, our park is looking pretty spiffy. Next up will be guttering.

THANKS BETTERMENT CLUB A sign was made for our museum, Remmers Design cre-ated it and it is now on the front of our museum. Prior to this there was nothing identifying it as our museum so this will cut down on confusion for people

who would like to visit it but don’t know where it is or who to call.

MEMA’S WEEK She said it has been a slow and lazy one. Rex and Dawn Stevens had given some tomatoes, cucum-bers and green beans to Shirley for her to bring to MeMa and she said she sure appreciated those. Shirley dropped in a couple of times and Richard and MeMa and Shirley had a strawberry float while visiting. Lanora Ad-ams and Beau the little dog had stopped by to visit too.

VANDALISM The east side of the old bridge on E. Lincoln has a big hole in it, and traffic cones had been places to keep people from driving across it. Someone thought it was fun to move the barricades and cones so steel cable was run through the barricades to keep them in place. Over the weekend of July 25th, someone cut the cables and threw the cones and barricades into the creek. This left an al-most four foot square hole in the center of the road. If you have any information on who did this, please contact City Hall.

FEMA WORK Our news-letter that the City sends each month has four more projects that we are waiting on FEMA to approve. City Lagoon is one of them; culvert replacements are on the list, storm drain replace-ments and streets bladed and graveled. Be prepared for city to have to contact you if you have

a vehicle parked along the street, or anything else.

NEW BUSINESS Two new ones in our town. Kenny Neff started up Neff Construc-tion and provides general con-tracting services. And Hunter Langfitt has purchased a bucket truck and will be available for tree trimming, electrical work, swinging house trusses and more. Great news for our town to have these two young men in our town.

CHUCK WAGON COOK-ING Ran across Kent Rollins has been a chuck wagon cook for 20 years and has kept the cowboys fed on traditional working ranches. Have some great recipes, some cowboy lore and cooking tips. He also has a You Tube channel. He uses Dutch ovens, campfires and live fire. Several recipes I am go-ing to try over the next couple of months. Banana bread with brown sugar crumbles will be my first I am thinking.

GAS THIEVES On two oc-casions the past month gas has been taken out of a vehicle of ours. So if you get in your ve-

hicle and think “I sure thought I had more gas” you probably are right, but someone has decided to help themselves to the gas you bought and paid for. On one occasion we had just gotten gas at Southside and driven straight home and had gone nowhere at all. But when we got in the car, it was on low fuel. So be aware we have people prowling around looking for things to take.

NEW HOURS City Hall is going to be open Monday through Friday until 2 p.m., this is a test run to see if this helps the community and our city clerk. The hours will now be 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

WEDDING BELLS KEEP RINGING Seth Aaron Peters and Maggie Elaine Baker were united in marriage at the Ameri-can Legion Hall in Bethany, Missouri on Saturday, August 8th, at 4 p.m. Seth is the son of Nate and Kerri Peters of New Hampton and Maggie is the daughter of Tim and Wendy Baker of Ridgeway. The cer-emony was performed by Seth’s grandfather, David Peters, of Leon, Iowa. Wedding colors were baby yellow and lilac. The bride’s dress floor length gown featured a heart shaped neck-line, full sleeves and a long train with a flowing veil secured at the back of her head. Bridal at-tendants followed the baby yel-low and lilac theme. The groom and his best men wore white button down shirts with gray vests and yellow ties over blue jeans. The hall was transformed into a wonderland of white lights and tulle with pops of bur-lap, lemons, candles, and other country touches.Wendy, mother of the bride, has a real talent for decorating. The groom was ac-companied by best man, Dylan McAfee, and groomsmen Shi-loh Peters, and Kenny Neff. The bride was accompanied by Maid of Honor, Gabrielle Stewart, and bride’s maids Megan Baker, and Saige Braden. Maggie’s father, Tim, gave the bride away. Jade Peters and River Christopher completed the bridal party as flower girl and ring bearer. Mag-gie wore on her garter the brooch that has belonged to her grand-father’s grandmother. Cocktail Hour followed the wedding as pictures were taken. A recep-tion was held at the hall where guests dined on smoked, pulled pork, cheesy corn and macaroni, southern green beans, Grandad’s pink fluff, and watermelon. San-dy Daleske provided photog-raphy service and Andre Rem-mers provided music. Toasts were given to the happy couple by John Magee, Dylan McAfee, and Gabrielle Stewart. The bride and groom had a small cake, which was lemon with the bark icing, resembling birch or aspen, for the cutting ceremony and cupcakes and cookies for their guests. A dance followed the meal. The couple honeymooned in Springfield. The groom is em-ployed with Ellis Construction out of Jamesport and the bride is employed as a traveling CNA by Cascade. Following their hon-eymoon they will be at home in New Hampton. **If you remem-ber last week’s column MeMa talked about how glad she was to get to attend this wedding and that Maggie was glad to have her MeMa there too.

Take care and have a good week.

The South Harrison Board of Education approved a $4.1745 tax levy at its meeting last week in the high school library.

The levy includes $3.7745 for incidentals and 40 cents for capital projects. Superintendent Dennis Eastin said the overall tax rate included a 10-cent roll-back. The levy will extend for the next two years. It was ap-proved on a 7-0 vote.

In the executive session, the board hired Lorrie Langfitt as the middle school and high school nurse to replace Kara

Craig who resigned as the nurse.Others offered contracts were

Sharon Reynolds as computer lab supervisor at the elemen-tary school, Brittney Henderson as elementary head cook, Chris Thomas as middle school head girls’ volleyball coach, Courtney Warford as varsity assistant soft-ball coach, Richard Caul as mid-dle school custodian and Dick Crabtree as full-time bus driver.

The board, in other action, ac-cepted the resignation of Taylor Wendt as varsity assistant soft-ball coach.

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources will host a free pesticide collec-tion event at the University of Missouri’s Hundley-Whaley Research Center, located at 1109 South Birch St. in Albany on Saturday, August 29th from 8 a.m. to 12 noon.

Mainline paving for the re-surfacing project on a portion of Interstate-35 in Harrison and Daviess counties is scheduled to begin this week. The Mis-souri Department of Transpor-tation contracted with Emery Sapp & Sons Inc. to resurface I-35 between U.S. Route 136 in Bethany and Route C near Pat-tonsburg (Exit 92 to Exit 78), including work on the on and off ramps.

Crews plan to work daylight hours starting on Monday. They will start milling and paving in the southbound driving lane (right lane), then move to the passing lane (left lane), pro-

gressing southward. They will then do the northbound lanes.

One lane in each direction is expected to remain open throughout the project. A 14-foot width restriction will be in place during the paving, which is expected to continue until the end of September. More work will follow the paving, with the entire project scheduled to be complete by mid-October. Crews could be working seven days a week, if needed, to com-plete the project on schedule.

All work is weather-permit-ting and schedules are subject to change.

Public Notices(Editor’s Note: Public Notice advertising plays

a unique role both in American History and in the process by which this country’s democracy is preserved. Its one premise is that people must be informed if they are to govern themselves competently. Public Notice advertising first came into being with the Congress of 1792. That body, recognizing its responsibility to the people, required the Postmaster General to advertise for bids for the construction of new post offices. From that inauspicious beginning to the complex publication requirements in federal, state and local laws today, government officials have come more and more to understand their obligations to inform the public through Public Notice advertis-ing. Newspapers over the years have been the vehicle by which these obligations have been fulfilled. They will continue to be as long as the public demands that it be informed frequently and by the best means possible.)

Beginning immediately, pro-spective jurors in Harrison Coun-ty can choose to communicate with the court by text or e-mail when the Harrison County Cir-cuit Court implemented the new Show-Me Jury system.

The circuit court will mail new Show-Me Jury questionnaires within this month, for jury service beginning September 1, 2020.

This is intended to benefit the public with the ease of contact-ing and communicating with the courts, and in particularly the Cir-cuit Clerk’s office,” said Circuit Clerk Sherece Eivins.

“Although Show-Me Jury is not completely paperless, it al-lows our potential jurors to do more online and choose how they want the court to let them know if they have been excused or disqualified for serving or if their service has been postponed or canceled. The intention is to make jury service more conve-nient for our citizens.

“I personally understand that not every citizen in Harrison County has internet, access to a computer or a smart phone. A phone number will be provided on the original summons that will be mailed out for those individu-als to call and request required paperwork to be completed for their term of jury service.”

Here is a short briefing on how Missouri’s new Show-Me Jury system should work:

The circuit court still sends the questionnaire for jury service through the postal mail.

When potential jurors receive the questionnaire, they now can go online at

www.courts.mo.gov/ejuror to complete their juror qualification forms. This online questionnaire lets them choose their preferred method of communication with the court – whether by postal ser-vice, e-mail or even text message.

Potential jurors who believe they are not qualified for jury ser-vice under state law can follow the online instructions to submit their necessary documentation electronically.

For potential jurors who pro-vide the appropriate contact in-formation, the local circuit clerk’s office can notify them by text message or e-mail before they re-port for service if their service is no longer needed.

Missouri courts do not require anyone to provide confidential information over the telephone call or by e-mail. The Show-Me Jury system is designed to give citizens a choice how they want to communicate with their lo-cal courts about potential jury service. Any telephone call or e-mail threatening the recipient with fines or jail time for failure to comply are fraudulent, are in no way connected with Missouri courts and should be reported to local law enforcement officials.

“Juries are an important part of the Missouri judicial system and I truly appreciate the citizens of Harrison County willing to serve as jurors,” Mrs. Eivins said. “The Show-Me Jury system will hope-fully make that service much easier and more convenient to the citizens of Harrison County.”

Dr. Glenn Dean ‘Doc” Windom

Dr. Glenn Dean “Doc” Win-dom, 88, Bethany, Mo., passed away at home on Wednesday, August 12th, 2020.

Dean was born May 3rd, 1932 in Clay Center, Neb., and graduated from Lenox, Iowa High School. He married Joan Lois Dodge January 12th, 1962.

Dean served in the United States Army. He shared a piece of President Dwight Eisenhower’s birthday cake when the Presi-dent was hospitalized for a heart attack at Fitzsimmons hospital in Aurora, Colo. He received his Doctorate of Veterinary Medi-cine from Iowa State University in 1966. He practiced as a large and small animal veterinarian in Harrison County for over 50 years (1966 to 2020).

In 1943, Dean exhibited the Grand Champion in the Short-horn division at the Kansas City American Royal and con-tinued to attend yearly for over 50 years. Dr. Windom shared his expertise with his grand-children as well as the 4-H and FFA youth for over 40 years. He was an inductee into 4-H Hall of Fame, recognized by the South Harrison Bulldog Athletics as an Honorary Booster Club member, and presented the Animal Vet-erinarian Award by the Missouri Department of Agriculture. He enjoyed watching and analyzing almost any sporting event.

He was preceded in death by his sister, Sally Barnes (Stan).

Dean is survived by his wife

of 58 years, Joan Windom, Bethany, Mo.; three children, Dr. Barbara Adkins, Shawnee, Kan., Nancy Laporta, Shawnee, Kan., and Shelly O’Boynick (Dr. Paul O’Boynick), Kan-sas City, Kan.; sisters, Beverly O’Riley (Mick), Ankeny, Iowa and Marilyn Wurster (Gary), Tupelo, Miss.; grandchildren, Dr. Chris O’Boynick (Katie), Allison Serrano (Aaron), Alex Adkins, Logan Adkins, James Laporta, and Maggie Laporta; great-grandchildren, Adelyn, William, Emilia, and Elliott and several nieces, nephews, and other relatives.

Graveside services and buri-al were August 17, in Miriam Cemetery, Bethany, Mo., under the direction of Roberson Fu-neral Home, Bethany, Mo.

Memorials may be made to the South Harrison High School Football Program and/or the Northwest Missouri State Fair Junior Livestock Show in care of Roberson Funeral Home, P.O. Box 46, Bethany, Mo. 64424. Online condolences may be left at www.robersonfuneralhome.com

Paul Pren StevensPaul Pren Stevens was born

on June 15, 1934 southeast of Allendale, Mo., and passed on to be with his Lord on August 12, 2020 in Grant City, Mo at the age of 86 years, 1 month, 28 days. He is the son of the late Lester and Edith Stevens.

He married his high school sweetheart, Martha Ann Myers, on May 16, 1954. He is survived by his wife of 66 years and his children, Paula Jean (Andy) Ku-nonen, James Bradley (Judy) Stevens, Leslie Michael (Gayla) Stevens and Stuart Allen (Vicki) Stevens. They were blessed with eight grandchildren, Jason (Torri) Kuonen, Blake Stevens, Bruce Stevens, Brock Stevens, Christine (Derek) Feighley, J.B. (Alyssa) Stevens, Dwight (Katelyn) Stevens and Hunter Stevens. In addition, they have been further blessed with 11 great grandchildren and three great-great grandchildren.

Pren was a member of the Al-lendale Baptist Church. He was baptized at the age of 12 after accepting Jesus as his Lord and Savior at a revival meeting. Pren loved the farm and his horses. He was proud of his cattle and constantly working to improve his herd. His quarter horses were not just for working the cattle, but also for show and cutting-horse competition.

He loved to hunt and fish. His bird dogs and his hounds brought him a lot of joy...a joy he shared with his sons and friends. Hunting and fishing was as much about the camaraderie as it was the thrill of the catch. But mostly, he loved his family.

The farm was a family affair that brought the family closer together as everyone pitched in with the chores, working the cattle, putting up hay, etc. The family has many fond memo-ries of working with Dad on the farm. It was not just the work; he made it fun too as he joked with his children and his dad...and teased them as well. He was a man with many good friends and a big, soft heart. He will be missed by us all.

He was preceded in death by his parents and his sister, Betty Louise Robertson.

There will be a visitation one hour prior to the funeral service. The service was held at Prugh-Dunfee Funeral Home August 15, with Pastor Darrell Darby officiating the service. The pall-bearers were his six grandsons, Dwight Stevens, Blake Stevens, Bruce Stevens, Brock Stevens, Jason Kuonen, and J.B. Stevens. Honorary pall bearers were his close friends, Charlie Pickering, Dale Knight, Ted Findley, and Norvil Miller. Interment will be at the Kirk Cemetery north of Allendale after the service.

Memorial gifts may be sent to the Allendale Baptist Church building fund.

When Steven’s doctor recommended a 10-minute heart score test, he thought nothing of it. As an avid hiker, he expected his score to be a very healthy zero. Instead, it indicated an extremely high risk for a heart attack with further tests showing eight blockages around his heart. Steven had quadruple bypass surgery, saving his life and giving him and his loved ones more time together.

Coronary artery disease is the #1 cause of death for both men and women. A heart score from Mosaic is easy, painless, costs just $50 and only takes about 10 minutes.

The Bethany Memorial Park’s swan, which dates from the earliest years of the park, disappeared for several days from its place in front of the shelter house near the entrance to the park.

Park officials are uncertain when the swan was taken. A passerby found the sculpture ly-ing in a ditch near the red cov-ered bridge at Buck’s Branch.

Mark Irvin, a collector of historical artifacts, had been concerned about how the swan had been displayed at the park without security. He said it was almost an open invitation for someone to take the figurine.

The swan originally had been located at the home of the Roleke

family who donated the land for the park early in the last century. For several years, the swan had been located in a goldfish pond in the park’s garden. However, the swan was vandalized sev-eral times, prompting the city to store the object at City Hall for a number of years.

The swan returned to the park several months ago and had been undisturbed before its recent dis-appearance.

The figurine did not appear to have been damaged.

City Administrator Jake Tay-lor said the swan will be kept at the City Hall for the time being to prevent other acts of vandal-ism.

A four-wheeler accident left Bethany resident Dakota John-son, 25, with moderate injuries Wednesday, August 12, near Avalon on private land.

Richardson was driving the four-wheeler when it over-turned. He was taken to the Hed-drick Medical Center in Chilli-cothe by the Chillicothe EMS.

The Harrison County Com-munity Hospital District tax hearing was held on July 27, 2020. The Board voted to set the tax rate at $.4904 per $1,000 as-sessed valuation. According to the Harrison County Clerk, the July 2020 assessed valuation totaled $130,038,124 for Harri-son County. In 2019, actual tax collections for HCCH totaled $554,423, which provided funds for various equipment needs.

During the meeting, the Board of Directors received a report on Medical Staff. HCCH Medi-cal Staff agreed with Centers of Disease and Control (CDC) on symptom-based guidelines and the time elements for staff returning to work. The Board reviewed credentials and rec-ommended re-appointment to the Medical Staff for consulting physicians and affiliate staff.

Submitted photoScholarship recipient: Naomi Thomsen (center) pictured with Tracy Salter (right) and Assistant Professor of Theatre and Scene Design Kimberly Manual (left).

North Harrison graduate Naomi Thomsen is the recipient of the Stage Door Scholarship award at Graceland University. This award is Graceland Theatre’s most prestigious scholarship and comes with a $10,000 award each year for four years.

Thomsen will begin her fresh-man year at Graceland this fall as a theatre major, but this will not be her first experience with the theatre department. Her high school does not have a theatre program, so during her junior year she reached out to Grace-land Professor of Theatre Tracy Slater, MFA, to request the op-portunity to gain an audition ex-perience and receive feedback. Salter immediately recognized her talent. Then, during her se-nior year, Salter invited Thom-

sen to audition again, and she was cast in the Graceland pro-duction of “Lighting the Way”

“I’m thrilled that Naomi has chosen Graceland’s Theatre De-partment to be her new home away from home,” Salter shared. “Her motivation, professional-ism and talent are serious assets to the program.”

This year audiences will be able to see Thomsen in the up-coming production of “Anti-gone,” opening September 24. As a safety precaution, all per-formances will move to a virtual environment this year.

HCCH to provide assessmentservice to area school districts

macy’s new Pyxis machine is now live in the Specialty Clinic, Inpatient, and the Emergency Department. Davidson also re-ported that Dr. Orton, Ear, Nose, and Throat Specialist held his last clinic at HCCH on June 22. As of now, a replacement has not been found. The new HEPA filter negative air pressure ma-chine has been installed, and there are now two negative pres-sure rooms on the inpatient floor.

HCCH has signed a new agreement with MO Educators Trust and will be providing as-sessments again this year for their health plan participants in nearby school districts. Par-ticipating schools include South Harrison, North Harrison, Alba-ny, Stanberry, Worth County and Pattonsburg.

During the meeting, CEO Tina Gillespie reported the De-partment of Health and Human Services (HHS) has requested that all hospitals report numbers daily (COVD-19 patients, sup-plies, ventilator) to a new web-site. Having the COVID testing area in the Ambulance Bay has helped to keep staff from wear-ing full PPE outside in the heat to test patients, and it has cut down on the amount of PPE be-ing used.

In other business, HCCH is showing improvement in quality scores. HCCH numbers are now above the National and State av-erage.

The next meeting is sched-uled for Monday, August 31, 2020, at 5:30 p.m. in the hospi-tal’s conference room.
