Last minute shoppers

MILLERSBURG — From desperate shoppers to the ultimate procrasti-nators, many of the shops in downtown can provide just the right gift idea for last minute shoppers.

If you have looked high and low but have exhausted all the ideas, you might stop into the Antique Emporium at 113 W. Jackson St. for a wide variety of gift ideas, including antiques, furni-ture, a book room, local art and handmade items.

“Many people have everything they really need,” said Antique Emporium owner Randy Ramsey. “But if you are looking for a niche item, you might find something here. Everybody collects something. License plates are really big, especially if you have a classic car or want to remember the year you were born.”

Ramsey was quick to show off the completely

rebuilt 1973 Mud Bug, a cross between a dune buggy and a mini bike.

“I’ll bet you’re not going to find one of these everywhere you go,” Ramsey said.

Just off the Antique Emporium is the Village Toy Shop, which features higher quality hardwood toys by Melissa and Doug.

Opened in October by Joel and Kristen Yoder of True Value Hardware, the

Village Toy Shop offers a wide range of toys rang-ing from less-expensive stocking stuffers to a sturdy doll house, which is one of the more high-end items.

The store offers science kits aimed at sparking the minds of children, as well as toy farm equipment and other hand-on toys.

Vicki Curren at Thoughts That Count, 88 W. Jackson St., has one

of the few remaining gift shops in town with many unique items available, ranging from an original Nativity set by Willow Tree with pieces start-ing at $10 to Fenton Art Glass, customized by Cur-ren, an independent artist.

“We’ve been here 23 years,” Curren said. “We ship all over the world.”

But if it is a present for

Still lots of good ideas for gifts in Millersburg

Appreciates care at Walnut HillsEditor:

On Sept. 1 of this year, I had a heart attack. I was at Aultman Hospital and had by-pass surgery on Sept. 3. I was then sent to Walnut Hills Nursing

Home Sept. 9 and was there for 22 days.

I was treated with great care from the nurses, cleaning ladies, to the kitchen help. Very good food and therapy. Some

of these people come with an extra gift as care-givers.

Thanks to Carrie and Sherry for getting my first cup of coffee in the morn-ing. I would recommend Walnut Hills to everyone. Thanks Carol and Merle for doing a great job.

God Bless you all.Nettie J. Miller

Paint Township FD: Be safety-minded during holiday season

The Paint Township Vol-unteer Fire Department would like to wish every-body a safe holiday sea-son with some reminders around homes.

This time of the year people tend to think joy-ful, happy and merry, but fail to think their house could catch fire because of something not being quite as good as it should be. Like the cords peo-ple have been using and thought about replacing the next time they get to the hardware store but forgot.

People want to get those lights up and well, the old one still worked last year, it will surely work one more year.

Let’s not forget to have working smoke detec-tors on every floor near bedrooms. And remem-ber to change batteries every time there is a time change.

Candles are another leading cause of holiday fires. Never leave candles unattended, even for sev-eral minutes; they are easy to forget. One teach-er who has been in the department’s fire safety presentation class several times said she was burn-ing one in a glass holder and didn’t think it would explode, but found out firsthand it would.

As of Nov. 1, there have been 102 fire-related deaths in Ohio. In 2014, there were 115.

During the Christmas and holiday season, elec-trical fires are one of the leading causes of home and Christmas tree fires. Use electricity safely to avoid the following com-mon causes of electrical fires:

• Overloaded outlets• Misuse of extension

cords• Not turning off lights

and decorations before going to bed or leaving the home

• Old or worn holiday lights

• Old or worn out appli-ances and electrical cords

• Decoration Fire Safety Tips

When purchasing an

artificial tree, look for a “Fire Resistant” label.

Never use electric lights on a metallic tree; people can be electrocuted.

When purchasing a live tree, check for freshness.

Make sure the needles are soft and are not falling off. Hard, brittle needles are signs of a dry tree, which can easily catch fire.

Live trees need water, and lots of it. Cut about one inch off the bottom of the trunk before put-ting the tree in the stand. Add water and check the tree daily.

Do not block the exit door with a tree.

Remove live trees from the home as soon as pos-sible. Most Christmas tree fires occur on or after New Year’s Day.

Check each light set for damaged sockets or wires. Discard light sets and extension cords that are worn or cracked.

Use UL approved light sets. Follow the manufac-turer recommendations concerning the maximum

number of light sets that can be connected togeth-er.

Replace burned out bulbs with bulbs of the same wattage as indicated on the tag attached to the light set.

Turn off all lights before going to bed or leaving the home.

Use only light sets and extension cords marked “For Outdoor Use” out-side the home.

Fasten outdoor lights securely with insulated clips or hooks. Use cir-cuits protected by ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs).

Record sales lead to fruit market crashMy publicly stated dis-

dain for being coerced into hawking random merchandise in the name of my children’s clubs and organizations to friends, family and coworkers did nothing to dissuade my youngest daughter, Sylvia, from slapping an order sheet down on my desk and commanding me to sell.

It was “fruit sale sea-son” at the high school and the stakes were high. On the line was a sum-mer trip out west for the entire club and despite being the single child of my brood who claims no competitive drive what-soever she was on fire.

She sold multiple cases of oranges before even leaving the high school, and by the time she got home she had filled half of her first order sheet.

Nature offers cues to parents to let them know it’s time to nudge the fledglings along on their first flight. This was my

moment.“Nope, I’m not selling

a thing for you,” I said. “This time around you’re going to have to do it yourself.”

She flashed a pouty lip and dropped her eyes to the ground. “Then can I at least borrow your phone?” she said.

I handed it to her with-out hesitation, figuring her own phone’s battery was about to die and she wanted to keep at it. What she was truly after was my contact list and she exploited the oppor-tunity in spectacular fashion.

Friends, co-workers, distant acquaintances, even folks I hadn’t spo-ken to in years — few, if any escaped her. Sylvia

sold a TON of fruit and I’m not speaking figu-ratively here. I arrived home from work one day to find one entire bay of our two-car garage stacked shoulder high with case upon case of fresh citrus!

“Holy Orlando!” I exclaimed as Sylvia stood in the middle of the mountain checking inventory. “That’s an awful lot of fruit. When and how does this stuff get to its new owners?”

“Well since you didn’t help me sell anything I figured the least you could do is help deliver it,” she replied matter-of-factly without even looking up from her clip-board. “Consider that your tiny contribution to my cause.”

She had me there. And I shamefully promised to devote the next few eve-nings to moving the mer-chandise into the proper hands. Then I hurried off to a meeting across town

in her mother’s car which had been displaced to the street.

Returning late, I had forgotten about the fruit until the garage door slowly rose to reveal the mess. Rolling my eyes I parked outside my garage-turned-fruit cellar and made a mental note to remember this when I backed my own car out the next morning.

If mental notes worked for me there wouldn’t be a constant ink smudge on the palm of my left hand, there wouldn’t be a scribble-filled note pad on my night stand and you’d be able to tell the color of our refrigerator underneath its shaggy coat of Post-It notes.

More importantly, there would still be a passen-ger-side mirror on my wife’s car — the one I cleaned off her door with my taillight as I backed out of the garage that next morning! With that, my “tiny contribution” to Sylvia’s cause grew con- siderably larger!

Elf epidemic spreading annual Christmas cheerMaybe you’ve heard of

it, maybe you haven’t. But it seems there is an epidemic of elves among us. They appear in early December and stay until they are needed at the North Pole at Christmas, often whether they are invited or not.

While they cause no real harm, they have a serious mission — to keep a watchful eye on young children and keep track of their behavior in the days leading up to the big holiday. Word on the street is they report directly to the Big Guy, and their observations have significant influ-ence on whether a child ends up on the naughty or nice list.

Each house that partic-ipates in this Elf Watch Program is assigned its own elf, although from the reports circulating, most of these elves look

exactly the same.About 12 inches tall,

usually wearing all red clothes unless other-wise clad by an overly exuberant homeowner, a festive red hat, and a smirky grin on their jolly faces as if the elf himself was up to something sneaky.

The elves are usually found sitting casually in a main room of the home, traditionally on a shelf. However, the elves have been known to move during the night so children do not get used to misbehaving in certain rooms, out of the vision of the stationary elf.

(These children often

tend toward the naughty list, but that is to deter-mined by S.C. himself.)

There is, as always, a catch to these vigilant elves. It is well known that if someone touches the elf, the magic disap-pears and with it, the elf. No children in their right minds would gamble away the chance at a visit from Santa, would they? So the elves are left to make their own choices as to what sort of view they want on the world each day.

But elves are like snowflakes. Each one is slightly different and each one has a personal-ity all of its own. Some elves have been known to sit in one place the entire holiday season, collecting dust as they collect notes. Others, it seems, have overzealous personalities and find themselves in a variety

of precarious places each day.

Some dangle from the ceiling fan, some nibble cookies. Some draw on mirrors, some play with toys. Some get caught up in Christmas decorations and some even make snow angels in flour on the kitchen floor!

It’s enough to make one wonder if they themselves will end up on the naughty list.

If your home has such an elf hanging around on a shelf or elsewhere, con-sider yourself lucky. Not only does the little fel-low bring around tempo-rary and positive behav-ior modification, he also manages to spread Christmas spirit to any-one involved, which is an epidemic that is well worth catching.

‘Twelve Days of Christmas’ getting

pretty priceyI’m in the midst of the

Christmas card process. We have managed to pare our list down to 30 people — close friends and family we are not going to see face to face. I find no reason to hand out cards at church or in the neighborhood when we can wish those peo-ple a Merry Christmas in person.

People who are sensi-tive to not getting a card will just have to get over it.

I noticed in our news-paper the items for the “Twelve Days of Christ-mas” now tops $34,000 this year. That is up 0.6 percent from last year in

case you keep track of these things.

The partridge, pear tree, two turtle doves and the 10 lords a-leap-ing have all risen in price slightly, but the three French hens ($182), four calling birds ($600) and five gold rings ($750) are the same as last year.

Also staying the same are the six geese a-laying

Have you given any thought to the hereafter?The question was asked,

“Have you given any thought to the hereafter.”

The reply was ”Oh, yes, I do it all the time. Wher-ever I am — upstairs, in the kitchen, or in the basement, I ask myself, “Now what am I here after?”

As I stand with the refrigerator door open looking at the milk jug, the cheese, the carrots, the catsup bottle, I keep asking myself, “Now what am I here after?” And then I finally remember, the butter for my toast that is getting very cold as it waits!

There I am in the gro-cery store without my list, which is laying at home on the kitchen table. As I

wander up and down the aisles asking myself “Now what am I here after?,” I keep dropping items in my cart, just in case they were on my list that I can’t remember. Pretty soon there I am pushing a cart out the door, full of groceries that cost almost $100 and I just hope in one of those bags is “what I am here after.”

As we age, memory problems arise and it can be very frustrating, but I find things about

the brain fascinating. In school we had to memo-rize and learn so many things. Our brains were filled with history, math-ematics, English, science, algebra, languages and so much more. These days I can’t help but wonder if it was really so important. Why do I remember “In fourteen hundred ninety two Columbus sailed the ocean blue” but I don’t remember which ocean or what he was looking for! Why did that rhyme stay in my brain but not the other details? When Columbus and his crew finally found land, did he look around and ask, “Now what am I here after”?

There are many memo-ries from my childhood but only certain ones. Am I really remembering all of those things that hap-pened when I was small or am I remembering things that were told to

me. I remember being in the doctor’s office when I broke my wrist and being told to count as I went to sleep and refusing to do it. I remember sitting on my Grandpa’s lap and learning to read because I couldn’t play very well with my broken wrist. I was 4 years old.

I remember many years when we went to my Grandpa and Grandma Gallon’s for the holi-days. There was a huge family get-together, my Grandma’s homemade noodles, and good times together. Aunt Georgia was always late getting there! There are so many things to remember about family, friends and neigh-bors as we go through life. I may not think about someone for a long period of time and then a name or word will bring memories flooding back. Where have they been all that time? And it is so

frustrating when we meet and start talking to some-one we know well — we just can’t remember their name! It happens to all of us.

Over the years those of us who are farmers have so many animals in our lives, horses, dogs, cats, cows and many more. There are so many mem-ories created by our work with those animals. We have so many different reasons for remember-ing them! For me there are so many memories connected to my Regis-tered Holsteins — their personalities, the things I learned in breeding and working with them, the shows we participated in, the special things we accomplished with them, and especially all the people we met along the way because of them.

Those are very special memories.

Why do we remember bits and pieces of all those things we learned in school or things that happened to us in life? Why is it that a certain picture, word, or name triggers memories that we hadn’t thought about in years? Our heads aren’t very big, so how is all that “stuff” stored in there? There are a lot of ques-tions. Hopefully someday there will be answers. As we age the “Now what am I here after” seems to occur more often. There is no doubt that in the future I will find myself standing in a room ask-ing, “Now what am I here after.” When I finally remember what it is, the next question will be, “Now where did I put it?”

($360), seven swans a-swimming ($13,125) and eight maids a-milking ($58), nine ladies dancing ($7,553 per performance), 10 lords a-leaping ($5,509 per performance), 11 pip-ers piping ($2,635 per per-formance) and 12 drum-mers drumming ($2,855 per performance).

The thing that puzzles me is where would you find some of these things? Like lords a-leaping. And why are milk maids so cheap?

Apparently partridges are more expensive this year because they are in higher demand as a gour-met food, and it costs more for grain for the tur-tle doves so that pushed up food costs.

The newspaper article said a buyer who pur-chased all the items each time they are mentioned in the song would spend $155,407.18. I will take their word for it.

If I can get through this

week I will spend the rest of the month just enjoying the Christmas decorations that have been put up by our neighbors.

Being minimalists (another term for lazy and frugal?) we have decorat-ed our house by hanging out the very old fake pine wreath that we brought from Ohio. I did buy a snazzy new plaid bow to brighten it up a bit. I think it looks nice on our front door. This is not a com-petition.

One man who lives around the corner spent about two weeks in November putting up lights all around his house and garage, setting out a fake Santa and all kinds of other things. You can see the glow of his place from two blocks away. At least down here he will be able to take it all down in Janu-ary without worrying if there will be a blizzard and he can’t do it until April.

My next project will be doing some baking. I think this year I will make Rus-

sian Teacakes, also known as Mexican Wedding Cakes. The recipe comes from my vintage Betty Crocker cook book.

To do this, mix together in a large bowl: 1 cup soft butter, 1⁄2 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Add 21⁄4 cups flour and 1⁄4 teaspoon salt. Mix in 3⁄4 cup finely chopped walnuts.

Chill the dough wrapped in waxed paper in the refrigerator. Pre-heat your oven to 400° F. Roll the dough into one inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. (These do not spread so can be placed close together.)

Bake 10-12 minutes, until set but not brown. While cookies are still warm, roll in powdered sugar. Cool and roll in powdered sugar again. The more sugar the bet-ter, I say. They will look like little snow balls. This should make about four dozen cookies, depending on how big of balls you make, of course.

provided material for this column. The entire article can be found online at: http://tiny.cc/eXtension-farmlighting. There are some very good publica-tions from the University of Wisconsin Extension; one, “Energy Efficient Agricultural Lighting” and another, “Lighting Technology: LED Lamps” that also provided infor-mation. Both are avail-able on-ine as a PDF doc-uments.

The first point that needs to be made is the more hours/day a light is used the more likely it is to show an economic return for replacing it with a more efficient fix-ture or lamp. Concentrate on applying the following suggestions on lighting used for multiple hours every day rather than the occasional use or one or

two hours per day lighting situations.

Lamp output is mea-sured units of foot can-dles, or lumens. Light efficiency is measured by the amount of lumens produced per watt. Based on this measuring stick, incandescent bulbs are the least energy efficient source of lighting. Other lower efficiency light-ing includes halogen and mercury vapor lamps. Light emitting diode (LED), fluorescent lamps, high pressure sodium and metal halide lamps are examples of higher effi-ciency lighting. Replacing incandescent bulbs with a more energy efficient lamp almost always makes economic sense, but some-times swapping out a T12 fluorescent lamp with a more energy efficient T8 fluorescent lamp could save dollars. Just for clari-fication, the diameter of a

fluorescent lamp is denot-ed in eighths of an inch; so a T12 is 12/8s or 1.5 inches in diameter while a T8 is 8/8s or 1 inch in diam-eter. Determining which specific higher efficiency lamp to use requires con-sideration of the quality of light needed, the inten-sity of light needed and the environment in which the light will be operated.

The quality of light emit-ted is typically measured by some kind of scale that compares the lamp light to sunlight. One of those scales is the color temper-ature index (CCT), which is a description of the color of the light emitted. A lower value indicates an orange/red light and a higher value a “bluer” light. For example, high pressure sodium light is assigned a value of 1900, an incandescent bulb a

Woman who stole from elderly escapes prison term

MILLERSBURG — For stealing from two people for whom she was providing in-home care, a Coshocton woman was sentenced to six months in jail.

Kristi L. Kempf, 37, of 724 Pine St., previously pleaded guilty in Holmes County Common Pleas to two counts of theft from

an elderly or disabled per-son.

Within the plea agree-ment, the state agreed to reduce both charges and Kempf agreed to pay full restitution, and has made $2,100 in payments to date.

Defense attorney Jeff Kellogg argued sentenc-ing guidelines eliminated all prison factors, and Holmes County Assistant Prosecutor F. Christopher

Oehl seemed to agree, noting, “I’m in a sort of a tough place. The trust she violated in men she was providing care for over a period of time was pretty reprehensible. I think she should be sent to prison, but I’m not sure (the court) has the legal authority to do that.”

Judge Robert Rinfret disagreed, noting by vio-lating a position of trust, one which obligated her

to prevent such offenses, Kempf was subject to a prison term. And, but for her lack of prior crimi-nal history and current employment, he would have imposed it.

Referencing Kempf’s explanation she used the money to satisfy a gam-bling addiction and buy lottery tickets, Rinfret said, “I’m always amazed. I’ll go into the gas station to get a cup of coffee and there are people in there buying $30-$40 in lottery tickets and they can bare-ly pay for gas.”

Kempf said she was unsure how much of the money was spent on tick-ets and the most she won at any one time was prob-ably $500.

“I want (the victims) paid back. I view these things as extremely seri-ous,” Rinfret said at Tues-day’s sentencing hearing, noting when it comes to theft offenses elderly and disabled people are as vul-nerable as children.

He sentenced Kempf to six months in the Holmes County Jail, with work release, adding he would

consider early release to electronically monitored house arrest once Kempf satisfies her financial obligations — $3,359 in remaining restitution, all court costs and the fees and expenses of her court-appointed attorney.

He also placed Kempf on three years of commu-nity control sanctions, not-ing any violation of such could result in imposition of a nine-month prison term. “If you screw this up, you get nine months in

value of 2800 and a day-light simulating fluores-cent lamp a value of 5000. Another scale is the color rendering index (CRI) that assigns a value from 0-100 to a lamp based on the perceived color of an object under that lamp as compared to viewing that object’s color in sunlight. Under the CRI system a low value means it would be hard for a worker to differentiate between colors under that particu-lar lamp. As an example, a mercury vapor lamp would have a low CRI value while an LED lamp would have a CRI value of 90 or greater.

The intensity of the light needed will depend upon the job or task that needs to be done. Detailed or precision work requires a higher light intensity than lighting for storage or security reasons. Some farm examples of sug-gested foot candle light intensity values depend-ing upon the task include: 15-20 foot-candles in a free stall barn, 50 foot-candles in the milking parlor at the cow’s udder or at the desk top of a farm office, 100 foot-

candles at a washing sink or for egg packing and inspection, 10 foot-can-dles for machinery stor-age.

Finally lighting needs to be considered in terms of the environment in which it will operate, specifically regarding temperature, dustiness and humidity or moisture conditions in farm settings. If you are replacing lighting, make sure the new lighting is designed for the envi-ronmental conditions it will experience. The use of compact fluorescent lamps may be limited in some areas because depending upon their rating they can require a minimum starting tem-perature of either 32° F or 0° F and at low tem-peratures may require several minutes to fully illuminate.

On the other hand, LED lamps are cold loving and can actually increase their light output as tempera-ture drops from 75° F to -20° F. Lamps installed in areas with prolonged expo-sure to moisture should be housed in fixtures with moisture resistant ratings. Dust absorbs light waves and reduces light output. Accumulating dust can

also reduce the ability of lamps and fixtures to dis-sipate heat, which can reduce lamp life.

Taking the time to regu-larly clean lamps and fix-tures that operate under dusty conditions can extend lamp life and keep light output at higher levels.

The use of timers, photo sensor and motion detec-tors are tools that can be used to use lighting more effectively and efficiently. These tools can insure lights get turned off when they are not needed and are on when they are needed.

For more information about farm lighting, con-tact the Wayne County Extension office at 330-593-8722, check out our web page at http://go.osu.edu/agwayne, or consult directly with a lighting specialist.

Millersburg church ransackedMILLERSBURG — “I

forgive you.”So says the Rev. Burnet-

ta Armour, pastor of the Millersburg First Presby-terian Church, to whom-ever broke into and ran-sacked the church Sunday night or Monday morning.

The Millersburg Police Department was con-tacted early Monday after

it was discovered some-one had forced entry to the church, 90 S. Clay St., by breaking a window, according to detective Jeff Lay.

While there appeared to be nothing of value taken, Lay said, several internal doors, as well as other items within the building, were damaged. He said it appears the intruder was in search of cash.

Fortunately, the church

has a policy of making after-hour deposits of col-lections made during Sun-day services, said Lay, who encourages other church-es to do the same.

It’s the second time Armour has been through such a crime. In 2012, the Clark Presbyterian Church, where she also pastors, was broken into.

“It’s a violation. It’s a deep violation. This is a holy place and people feel

personally violated. This is their home, their safe place, where they come to be comforted,” she said.

To the responsible party, she says, “You could have come and asked us for help. We would have found you help. I forgive you. If you want to come and receive forgiveness, I forgive you. I want you to know the love and grace of God.”

She said her feelings

were reinforced when, while cleaning up, she found a card in the bot-tom of a drawer organizer that was left in a puddle of hand lotion that had been squirted onto her desk.

“The whole card is about forgiving people, just as Jesus forgave those who hung him on the cross,” she said, focusing on one particular line on the card — “Oh, Jesus, sometimes people cut me too.” —

that really resonated with her and reinforced her inclination to forgive.

“To be honest, I don’t know who gave it to me or when I got the card. It was just there, stuck in the back (of the organiz-er). That’s just how God works. How ironic is that? Maybe God is speaking.”

She is thankful that despite the mess left inside

the church, the sanctuary was largely untouched. “They were almost respect-ful of the sanctuary,” she said. It’s a sharp contrast to the Clark break-in, where

the pulpit Bible was stolen and discarded along the road.

“We are very fortunate it was not worse than it was,” she said, adding a crew of parishioners made quick work of putting the

pieces back together.Lay spent time Monday

approaching businesses to review surveillance footage.

The department also is investigating reports of two unlocked vehicles along East Jackson Street being entered during the same timeframe. It is unknown if they’re related to the church break-in.

And, while nothing was reportedly stolen from the vehicles, Lay reminds

motorists to always lock their vehicles and remove valuables.

Armour is thankful the church policy mandates an immediate deposit of all cash into the bank. “Most churches don’t keep cash on hand on Sundays,” she said. “There’s a very strong sense of responsibility on the part of our treasurer, and it’s taken to where it belongs. It’s not our money to begin with. It’s our job

to take care of it. It’s just unfortunate nowadays people are more interested in getting their money (by thievery) than working for it.”

She said she’s also sad churches are no longer a place that can be open to the public at all hours.

“It breaks my heart, the fact we can’t leave the doors open and the church unlocked,” she said, noting at one time they were left

open all the time. “It was a place where people could just come in off the street and pray. We can’t do that anymore. It limits our open-ness to the community, but I personally don’t think that is going to limit our mission.

“We will still have Thurs-day night dinner, we will have service on Sunday, and we will continue to reach out with love to the com-munity and would reach out in love to the people who did this,” said Armour, who questions if it was out of desperation or a cry for help this crime was com-mitted in the midst of the Christmas season, making the sting just a little more.

“This is a house of God, and why would you break in and (steal from) the house of God.”

Anyone with information about the crime is encour-aged to call the Millersburg Police Department at 330-674-5931.

Students visit technical programs at Career Center

Three hundred seventy-eight sophomores from five local school districts — Ashland, Hillsdale, Loudonville-Perrysville, Mapleton and West Hol-mes — visited 16 career technical programs at Ashland County-West Holmes Career Center Dec. 8-9. Visitors had the opportunity to choose three programs of inter-est and spent hands-on time in those programs where demonstrations

and instructions were provided by ACWHCC juniors and seniors who were eager to show off the skills they have learned.

Said ACWHCC Super-intendent Mike McDan-iel, “We are pleased that more and more students are looking at the value of career technical edu-cation. We want to help them and their parents understand that this is not

The charges stem from incidents occurring between August 2014 and March 2015 when Kempf, as a caregiver for the two disabled men, had access to their finances. During that time, she stole $3,842 from one and $1,616 from the other, according to Oehl.

Questioned by an inves-tigator with the Millers-burg Police Department, Kempf initially denied the accusations, but later admitted to taking the money to support her habit, said Oehl.

Santa Claus comes to town

FREDERICKSBURG — Despite warm tem-peratures reminiscent of October, Saturday marked the official launch of the Christmas season in the village as the Fred-ericksburg Community Library hosted its annual Christmas at the Library event.

The guest of honor was Santa Claus himself. Library Director Jane Braddock said old Saint Nick shows up to the event every year, rolling into town on a fire truck. She said tradition dic-tates the jolly old fellow must light the commu-nity Christmas tree and turn on the Christmas toy train, which runs inside the library through the season.

Claus stayed true to tra-dition this year and, when he arrived at the library, he greeted the excited children who were wait-ing for him. He gave each one a high five and went about completing his annual chores.

After completing all of what he was required to do, old Saint Nick then began talking to children about what they wanted for Christmas. One of the children he spoke to this year was 5-year-old Cylee

Betson, who said she is really into horses this year. Her Christmas list was simple and reflective of her favorite animal.

“I want a toy horse trail-er and some toy horses to go in it,” she said.

Seven-year-old Micah Gessel had the chance to speak to Santa, as well. While waiting for Santa to arrive, he said he was going to ask him for a couple of different things for Christmas. He said he wants a LEGO tow truck and a Snap Circuits kit, a toy with which children can build small electronic devices.

Claus was a major event for many of the children who were at the Fred-ericksburg Community Library Saturday morn-ing, it was by no means the only way the library brings in the holiday sea-

son. For an hour before Mr. Claus arrives, children and families work in the lower level of the base-ment making gingerbread houses, Braddock said. Like Santa’s arrival, the houses are an annual part of the village’s Christmas tradition, she said.

A local family, the Det-weilers, bake a total of 25 gingerbread houses and assemble them — leaving the decorating to the area children.

Ten-year-old Audrey Rowe was one of the chil-dren who was working on one the gingerbread

houses Saturday morning. She said there is a little bit of strategy involved in decorating the house with candy.

“Use a piece, eat a piece,” Rowe advised.

Sitting nearby was 8-year-old Carleigh Lynch, who had decorated her

gingerbread house with a pretzel door, adorned with candy canes. She said whenever she builds a gin-gerbread house, she usu-ally starts with the door.

“We do the roof first,” 8-year-old Olivia Brown said.

The roof on Brown’s

gingerbread house was topped with gumdrops. They began on one side of the roof and ran straight over to the other side. It was a style that 8-year-old Temperance Lemon decided to decorate her

gingerbread house with, too.

Lemon said she started the

gingerbread house by lining the roof with gumdrops. Then she used modified candy canes to construct a door, a circular fruit chew

to make a window and pret-zels to make a garage door in the back of the house.

While the gingerbread project was a way to bring

in the holiday season for the village, it was also a source of fun. Some chil-dren said they enjoyed the candy and others said they were fans of crafts. Still others simply enjoyed being with family.

“I mostly like it because we get to decorate it as a family,” 6-year-old Owen Shultzman said.

Lady Knights grind out key OCC win over RidersORRVILLE — The

West Holmes and Orrville girls basketball teams are cut from the same cloth.

Both teams play aggres-sive defense, and neither is afraid to play a grind-it-out style for an entire 32 minutes.

So, it was no surprise the Knights and Red Riders played an intense, but low-scoring affair Saturday afternoon that came down to the final shot.

West Holmes, though, came up with the stop when it mattered most.

West Holmes’ Saman-tha Hall blocked Molly Dennis’s game-winning 3-point attempt with 3.8 seconds remaining to lift the Knights to a 38-34 vic-tory over the Red Riders at Orrville’s Bob Knight Gymnasium.

Brittleigh Macaulay scored 11 points for West Holmes, which improved to 6-1 overall and a perfect 3-0 in the Ohio Cardinal Conference, while Orrville dropped its first decision of the year. Trinniti Hall scored a game-high 12 points for the Red Riders, who fell to 5-1 and 2-1 in the OCC.

“We knew coming in it was going to be like this, a physical battle where every stop and possession was going to be impor-tant,” Orrville coach Mark Alberts Sr. said. “We had difficulty scoring, but their defense had a lot to do with that. Every time they needed a stop they got

one, and at the end they made one more.”

Although Orrville led just one time following its 6-5 advantage early in the opening quarter, (21-19 with 1:28 left in the third period), the Red Riders stayed within striking dis-tance the entire afternoon.

Trailing 35-29 with 1:09 remaining in the game, Orrville made its last run on the Knights, as Hall scored five straight points

to cut the West Holmes lead to 35-34 with 14.2 sec-onds left.

After Hannah Clark split a pair of free throws with 10.8 remaining, Orrville drove the length of the floor to set up the poten-tial go-ahead 3 from Den-nis in the corner. But, a fast-closing Hall got her hand on the ball with Kacie Leppla grabbing the

Hawks start slow, finish strong in routing Chippewa

CANTON — Typically, when Chippewa senior Bailey Breitenstine takes the floor, any and all scoring b a r r a g e s come from his direc-tion.

W e l l , B r e i t e n -stine fin-ished with 28 points at the Hoops with a Heart Classic at Canton Central Catholic Saturday.

But it was Turner Horn and the Hiland boys bas-ketball team getting the last laugh.

Horn matched Breiten-

stine with 28 points on 12 of 16 shooting. The Hawks junior also finished with three steals, three assists, two rebounds and a block to lead Hiland to a 66-53 victory.

The 6-foot-2 wing did a bit of everything, scoring on all three levels to keep Hiland in the game early, and keep the offense humming late.

“That was nice tonight,” said Hiland coach Mark Schlabach, whose team improved to 4-1. “He didn’t force anything and he let the game come to him.”

Early in the game, it looked like the Wayne County Athletic League boys would take it to the Inter-Valley Conference’s finest.

Breitenstine and com-

pany were hitting on all cylinders.

The area’s returning scoring champion had nine points in the game’s first nine minutes, and thanks to a pair of 3s from senior Jerry Bennett, the Chipps built an early 21-13 lead.

From there, the Hawks went to work.

They hit five 3s over the next six minutes and headed into the half down by a point.

Then in the second half, Hiland looked like Hiland typically looks.

Breitenstine, who tal-lied 18 first-half points, had just a 3-pointer in the first 12 minutes of the sec-ond half thanks to a com-bination of foul trouble and suffocating Hiland defense.

The turnovers started to pile up for the Chipps, and the Hawks figured out they could blow past Chippewa’s defenders, getting to the rack half a dozen times in the second half on dribble drives.

The Hawks built a 7-point lead by the end of the third quarter and a 15-point advantage at dif-ferent points in the fourth quarter.

“I don’t know if I can point to one thing, really,” said Chippewa coach Lee Foster, whose team is now 0-2 after a heartbreaking Friday loss to Hillsdale. “Hiland is a well-oiled machine and they don’t let you take plays off.

“You have to play 32 minutes and match their toughness and intensity.”

The Hawks built as com-

fortable of a lead as they could early in the fourth.

Christopher Kline start-ed things with a blow-by to the rim on the Hawks’ first possession. A couple minutes later point guard Scott Troyer stole the ball and hit Horn for a fast-break and-one dunk. Then with 4:50 left in the game, post Michael Miller found Horn for a basket. Those big plays on offense, mixed with the Hawks’ defense, which went from serviceable in the first half to suffocating in the sec-ond, pushed the Hiland advantage from 50-43 at the start of the quarter to 57-43.

Even so, the Hawks knew there was no time to relax.

“Chippewa is so explo-sive,” Schlabach said.

“Yes, Bailey is really good, but their other guys play so well that they’re just about impossible to guard.

“Even with a 13-point lead with two-and-a-half minutes left, I was remind-ing the team that no lead was safe.”

On top of the 28 points, Breitenstine also fin-ished with four assists and a steal. He was 10 of 16 shooting and hit four 3s, including a faceup 30-footer with a defender nearby late in the fourth.

“We were trying to make him work harder for his shots,” Schlabach said. “You know you’re not going to shut him down.

“The kids did a really good job on him and he still had 28.”

Pair of champs lead Knights to fifth-place finish at WIT

SMITHVILLE — Ravenna Southeast won the Wayne Invitational Tournament with 284.5 points and four champi-ons, including Most Valu-able Wrestler Brett Bailey (138 pounds). Completing the top five were New Philadelphia (276 points), Smithville (263.5), Norton (230) and West Holmes (220).

Other local teams were Triway (eighth, 152), Nor-wayne (11th, 94), Orrville (12th, 86), Rittman (14th, 62.5), Dalton (16th, 37.5) and Wooster (17th, 30).

Winning individual championships for West Holmes were Cole Woods (145) and Thane Kaufman (106).

Two-time state-placer Woods (16-0) has bumped up from 126 to 145 and feels good at the higher weight class. He flattened Smithville’s Trenton Mathew using a cradle in 1:00 to win a second WIT championship.

“I think I’m going to stay at this weight,” Woods said. “I like it. I’m really not cutting any weight and I feel healthy.

“It’s good to start out undefeated and I hope I can keep it going a long way.”

The Knights’ Kaufman trailed Southeast’s Logan Martin 4-0 before securing a cradle to work a pin for an exciting come-from-behind win in 4:24.

leg and then locked it up with a cradle,” said Kaufman (13-0), a sopho-more who reached the Div. II districts last sea-son. “It shows all the hard work — all the work on freestyle and in practices — is paying off.”

Thirds went to West Holmes’ Josiah Allison (132) and Jake Mullet (195).

“I’m very happy with how we did for what we came here with,” West Holmes coach Jeff Woods said. “Everyone has shown improvement, even from Wednesday at Northwestern.

“Our young kids won matches and our older kids stepped up and won some tough ones. We’re headed in the right direc-tion.”

Bennett finished with nine while also tallying seven boards.

Kline had 10 for the Hawks, who also got 8-point efforts from Brady Schlabach and Scott Troyer. Troyer also had three steals, and led the charge defensively against Breitenstine dur-ing his second-half strug-gles.

Hiland got to walk away with a win and played likely its best half of the season thus far.

The Chipps got to build a lead against what is perhaps the area’s best

program, something they don’t expect to come eas-ily after many of their players just finished foot-ball two weeks ago.

“I’m sure they made a few (halftime) adjust-ments, but not a ton,” Foster said. “I think more than anything, they just stepped up the intensity. They’re used to drilling everybody by 40 and they came out tonight and were down at halftime.

“They’re always good. They’ve got their pro-gram built. We’re just in Year 2, so from that standpoint, I’m excited to see what the future holds.”

rebound. Leppla’s two free throws preserved the victory for the Knights.

“This was not going to be an easy one, we all knew that,” West Holmes coach Lisa Patterson said. “(Orrville) is a veteran team that wants to win (the OCC) as badly as we do. We’ve had to play our tails off the past week and a half, going against the best three teams in our league and then Hiland last Satur-day.

“Our girls played extremely hard today, too, and some of our other girls that normally don’t get much attention played outstand-ing games. Samantha played very well, and Karisa Shriver (8 points) was great for us, too. Every girl that

played made a contribution.”Orrville cut the West Holmes lead

to two points twice in the fourth quar-ter, before the Knights answered with big baskets on each occasion.

Shriver’s 2-point basket gave the Knights a 25-21 lead with 7:13 left in the fourth, while Clark’s 3-pointer gave West Holmes a 30-25 advantage with 4:32 left in regulation.

“It seemed that every opportunity we had to either tie the game, or to take the lead, after we briefly led in the third quarter, (West Holmes) got a big bucket to get it back out to four or five, or even six points,” Alberts said. “We just never got an easy basket all day, and even though we forced them into 15 turnovers, we couldn’t get one that led to a break-away. I’m more proud of our girls

than ever for the effort and heart they played with, but we just couldn’t get the big basket to get us over the hump.

“It’s a tough loss, because we did just about everything we had to do, except to win the game at the end.”

Orrville finished the day 13 of 38 shooting (34 percent) and was 3 of 16 on 3-pointers. West Holmes outrebounded Orrville 33-21 with Macaulay and Orrville’s Hall grab-bing 11 each. Hall also recorded eight steals.

West Holmes shot just 32 per-cent from the field (13 of 40), while knocking down 2 of 12 from beyond the arc.

gen, 76, Sugarcreek, passed away on Dec. 8, 2015, at Community Hospice House in New Philadel-

phia, with his family by his side after having suffered a massive hemorrhagic stroke a week earlier.

Born and raised in Rag-

He leaves behind his beloved wife of 54 years, Diana (Hecker) Youngen; a son, Ralph (Jennifer)Youngen; grandchildren Andrew and Abigail of Fairfax Station, Va.; a daughter, Heidi (Youngen) Yates, and her husband, Edward of Cincinnati; and a brother, Glenn Youn-gen and companion, Ann Mumaw of Ragersville.

Lowell graduated from Sugarcreek-Shanesville High School in 1957, and was a U.S. Army veteran, having served in West Germany. After military service he was a long-time parts manager for Bright-wood Motors in New Philadelphia, before com-pleting his working career with Erb’s Stove Center of Berlin.

He dedicated much of his life to community ser-

vice. He was elected to the Sugarcreek Village Council in 1972, and was instrumental in defining Sugarcreek’s first zoning ordinance in 1975.

Lowell’s life-long pas-sion was studying history. He was an active member of both Ragersville and Dover Historical Societ-ies, and was a member of the Board of Directors of

the Alpine Hills Histori-cal Museum, becoming its president in 2009. He also became the volunteer curator of the museum that same year and with his wife, became volunteer coordinator for the Sugar-creek Information Center, housed within the Muse-um. Together Lowell and Diana worked tirelessly for the next seven years to build the museum into a premier attraction show-casing the Amish and Swiss heritage of the Sugarcreek area.

For his dedicated com-munity service, Lowell received numerous awards and recognition. He was a 2010 recipient of the Zeisberger Heckewelder Award from the Tuscara-was County Historical Society. That same year he received a Founding Father Award at the Celebrate Sugarcreek banquet, an annual event sponsored by the Sugarcreek Business-men’s Association. His wife received that same award

in 2014. In 2014, both Low-ell and Diana were chosen as Honorary Candelighters for Sugarcreek’s Christmas in the Village, an award bestowed upon those who give exceptional service to the community.

A Celebration of Life ser-vice was Dec. 13 at Smith-Varns Funeral Home, Sugarcreek (www.smithfu-neral.com). Burial was in Ragersville Cemetery.

Jimmy Eddy, 63Jimmy Lee Eddy, 63,

of Killbuck, passed away Monday, Nov. 23, 2015, sur-rounded by his family at Akron City Hospital, after a brief illness.

He was born Sept. 10,

1952, in Millersburg, the son of Leo W. and Thelma E. Eddy, and on Dec. 10, 1971, married Betty Lou Hemingway. She survives.

Jimmy was a machin-ist at Wayne Machine,

Wooster and was previous-ly employed at L&W Egg, Millersburg.

He was a member of Locust Grove Church of Christ, was a 4-H adviser for 26 years, taught dog obedi-

ence for 25 years and served on the Holmes County goat committee. He liked read-ing, playing guitar, sing-ing and wearing Hawaiian shirts. He loved spending time with his grandchildren

and enjoyed helping them with their school work. Something Jimmy always enjoyed doing was helping others. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Surviving in addition to his wife, Betty, are children, Eric David Eddy (Sherry Frazier) of Orrville, and Jamie Lyn (Craig) Stocker of Killbuck; grandchil-dren, Tiffany Nicole Eddy, Lindsey Natia Eddy (Jared Thacker), Alexander David Eddy, Aaron David Stock-er, Garret Dean Stocker, Joshua (Alyce) Burton and Ryan Burton (Jessie); great-grandchildren, Brinton Scott Riley, Kyleigh Paige Eddy, Serenity Nicole Eddy, Calvin Lee Thacker (on the way), Hayden Connor Bur-ton, Emma Abrielle Burton, Kinsley Jade Burton and Rylynn Star Burton; sis-ters, Patricia S. Eddy (Aud-ley) White of Wooster and Nancy Lynn Eddy (Den-nis) Carmichael of Akron; brothers-in-law, Russell Dean of Bolivar, and Rob-ert “Bob” Easterling of Mansfield; and numerous nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents; sisters, Betty Lou (Eddy) Dean and

Judith Ann (Eddy) East-erling; and a niece, Gina N. White.

A Celebration of Life ser-vice was Sunday, Dec. 13 at Locust Grove Church of Christ, with Dale Duncan officiating. Private family viewing took place prior to cremation. Arrangements were handled by Alexan-der Funeral Home, Mill-ersburg. Those wishing to share a memory or make on-line condolences may do so at www.alexanderf-hinc.com.

The family suggests con-tributions be made to Hol-mes County Agricultural Society, P.O. Box 376, Mill-ersburg 44654, for the capi-tal campaign at Harvest Ridge.

Alice Grandstaff, 69Alice Maxine Grandstaff,

69, of Millersburg, passed away Friday, Nov. 20, 2015, at Majora Lane Care Cen-ter, Millersburg, after an extended illness.

She was born Dec. 2, 1945, in Knox County, the daugh-ter of Lewis Edwin and Violet Blanche (Donald-son) Wallace, and on Jan. 21, 1974, married John Grand-staff. He preceded her in death in June 2011.

Alice was a homemaker, and enjoyed working on crossword and jigsaw puz-zles. She loved spending time with her family, and her grandchildren were the light of her life.

Surviving are children, Peggy (Jim) Luzader of Nashville, Judy (Jeff) Cam-eron of North Jackson, Joyce Gill, John Gill, Jenni-fer Gill and Jason Gill, all of Illinois, James Grandstaff of Millersburg, Steven Grand-staff (Wendy Haney) of Coshocton, Joseph Grand-staff (Elizabeth) of Massa-chusetts, and Janice (Gary) New and Jessica (Sam) Sultan, both of Illinois; 20 grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; brothers, Robert (Susie) Wallace of Killbuck and Glenn Wal-lace of Coshocton; and sis-ters, Mary (George) Cayton of Newark, Clara (Robert) Clippinger of Millersburg, Carol (Daryl) Martin,

Betty (Jeff) Larntz and Rose (Matt) Jenkins, all of Coshocton.

She was preceded in death by her parents; four broth-ers; a sister; and an infant granddaughter.

The family would like to say a heartfelt “thank you” to the staff at Majora Lane Care Center for all the love, care and support they gave to Alice and her family.

Services were Nov. 21 at Alexander Funeral Home, Millersburg. Those wishing to share a memory or make online condolences may do so at www.alexanderfhinc.com.
