Monday we began our week with our daily ex-ercise program and then headed into the activ-ity room to play several rounds of bingo before lunch. We had a sing-a-long after lunch, and then we met back into the ac-tivity room to work on some cards to send to our friends and family.
Tuesday after exercise we had some fun playing uno, skipbo, and domi-nos. We loaded up on the big van, and the car and headed up to Shangri La for the beautiful drive and some great pie. Ev-eryone who went had a great time and really just enjoyed getting out for a bit.
Wednesday after exer-cise, we mixed in lots of fun with a little more ex-ercise by bowling on our wii. We celebrated all our residents birthdays for the month at lunch with cake for desert and presents too! We loaded up on the van and went to the library to return some book we had and pick up some more to read dur-ing our "down" times! We had our weekly Bi-ble study group and we always enjoy our study time together.
Thursday we had our morning exercise and then we loaded up and headed out to the thrift store in search of some good bargains. We of course, found plenty, and as always, were greeted with smiling faces and helpful ladies! We got a group together and played dominos in the dining room while another group enjoyed a movie in the
theater, and everyone at both events enjoyed coke loats for a treat.
Friday after exercise was over we decided to try bowling on something a little different then our wii, the kinect. It took a little getting used to, but we soon caught on, and found it to be so much fun, we were all glad Lexi brought it for us to try out. We started having such a good time that we ended up almost late for lunch! We loaded up and went to town to the dollar store and picked up some items we were in need of for the weekend, and while we were out we stopped by Sun Screen video and got a movie for the weekend, and some ice cold cokes for the road! We returned home and met up with our friends the yarn-workers.
Saturday we did our morning exercise and then we got a little pam-pering with manicures and nail polishing. We enjoyed wathing a good drama for our afternoon activity.
Sunday we had our weekly Sunday school class, and in the afternoon we had our devotional, and thery always leave us feel-ing as if we can face the week ahead ahead with a smile! We also had an ice cream social and visited with our friends while we "cooled" down.
We want to thank all our volunteers for your time and many talents and remind you if you would like to become a volunteer, please feel free to call myself or Sherrie Morris at 870-867-2159.
Happy Birthday Fuzz !!

A visitor recently inquired about the How-erton Cemetery in the southeastern section of the county. We would appreciate a call (867-4422) if anyone knows its history – who donated the land, how it’s main-tained, is there an as-sociation, who a contact person would be. . . .?
Another interest is the location of the ar-tesian spring at Black Springs. Back when the community was set-tled, there were several springs. As time passed, some of the springs must have dried up. Suppos-edly the one remain-ing spring is now just a pond, possibly ¾ acre in size. We know from vari-ous accounts that Black Springs had postal ser-vice by 1869 and was a very large town in the late 1800s to the early 1900s. In Our Heritage, the His-torical Society’s excel-lent publication relating Montgomery County’s history, Mildred Watson wrote that by 1884, Black Springs had a newspa-per (The Black Springs Herald), two churches, one dentist, two doctors, druggist, lawyer, black-smith and several stores. Within the next two de-cades, there were more businesses, cotton gin, gristmill, and sawmill built along with a nature
park, a spring house, a bath house, and a bank. There also was a two week Normal Training School for teachers held annually. Black Springs continued to grow until the proposed route of the railroad was changed and the depot was placed in Womble (Norman). Busi-nesses then began relo-cating to that community in order to take advantage of the railroad and be more conveniently avail-able to the public. With the exodus of businesses, the population of Black Springs also diminished. It’s really fascinating to imagine how large and busy Black Springs once was! But now back to the original question. . . . a patron wants to know if there is possibly an artesian spring still in evidence in the Black Springs area?
A side note of in-terest: the wall of mail distribution boxes that was used for many years in the Black Springs post office is on display in the museum’s General Store exhibit. In the very early days of a commu-nity the mail center was typically located in the postmaster’s home, mov-ing at a later date for the convenience of the mail patrons to a corner of the local general merchan-dise store.
Legislators plan to review the policies and actions of the state De-partment of Community Correction, which has jurisdiction over paroled inmates when they are released from prison.
The importance of a thorough investigation into the parole system came to light when a Little Rock man was charged with murder, which he allegedly committed after repeatedly failing drug tests, failing to report to his parole oficer and be-ing charged with numer-ous felonies. In spite of his repeated pattern of criminal activity he was walking the streets.
The details of the Little Rock crime will dominate headlines over the sum-mer, but legislators will not limit the scope of their review to that one case. They will want speciics on how many crimes are
committed by inmates who are out of prison on parole, and how serious those offenses are.
At the same time legislators are conducting a thorough study of the parole system, the Arkan-sas State Police also will perform an administrative review of how parolees are supervised and how frequently they commit crimes.
According to the Community Correction Department, oficers with medium and high risk cases will have an average of 70 parolees under their supervision, while oficers with low risk cases will supervise an average of 250 parolees.
Last year the Commu-nity Correction Depart-ment supervised more than 52,000 parolees and people on probation. Ten years ago its oficers supervised more than
40,000. Last year the Department employed 627 parole and probation oficers and 80 people in its central ofice. Also, it hired 489 people to operate its six minimum security facilities, in which 1,042 inmates were housed.
The three most com-mon offenses for which they were convicted were possession, manufacture or delivery of controlled substances, residential burglary and theft of prop-erty. About two-thirds of the inmates are men.
Also, the Community Correction Department works with the 41 drug courts in Arkansas.
The legislature enacted a package of bills earlier this year to strengthen laws governing parole violations and to make it tougher for repeat offend-ers to avoid incarceration. Act 1029 of 2013 requires the Parole Board to issue an arrest warrant for any parolee charged with a violent crime or a sex crime. The Department of Community Correc-tion shall keep the Board informed when those charges are iled.
Act 485 repeals the
eligibility of sex offend-ers and serious offend-ers to qualify for parole automatically. In other words, even if they ac-cumulate meritorious good time they could only be released after the Parole Board reviews their record and approves.
Act 1030 tightens the deinition of recidivism, the term used by prison of-icials to categorize repeat offenders. The act will provide lawmakers and the public with a more accu-rate picture of the preva-lence of repeat offenders.
Suspension of lethal injection
The governor an-nounced he would wait to set execution dates for seven men convicted of capital murder until the state has obtained a new source for the drugs used in lethal injection. The men are on death row and have exhausted their ap-peals.
The pharmaceutical manufacturer that produc-es the drug used for lethal injection is no longer sup-plying it to states that use it for capital punishment.
The most recent execu-tion in Arkansas was in November of 2005.

Ocean Mammals
A Special Thank You to all our sponsors!
Marine mammals are warm-blooded animals that spend the majority
of their lives in the seas or oceans. Some of these animals spend some
time out of the water on shore, while others live their entire lives in the
oceans, just as ish do. Whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals, walruses, ot-ters, manatees, dugongs, and sea lions are the major marine mammals.
Ocean mammals all breathe air to acquire oxygen, rather than extracting
it from the water, like ish. They are able to swim underwater for long pe-
riods of time, but they must come up to the surface for air. Some have a
blow hole for this purpose. Marine mammals must stay warm in the cold
waters of the oceans and seas. For this reason, many of them have de-

The Assignment Given To Titus
Pastor Steve Ellison
The Apostle Paul estab-lished some churches on the island of Crete. When Paul moved on to set up new churches elsewhere, he left those churches in the capable hands of Ti-tus. Paul had trained and equipped Titus for a spe-cial job. Titus 1:1-5 states, “Paul, a bond-servant of God and an apostle of Je-sus Christ, for the faith of those chosen of God and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness, 2 in the hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised long ages ago, 3 but at the proper time manifested, even His word, in the proc-lamation with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior, 4 To Titus, my true child in a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Je-sus our Savior. 5 For this reason I left you in Crete, that you would set in order what remains and appoint elders in every city as I di-rected you.” NASU Paul knew that the churches he was leaving behind would desperately need capable leaders, so irst of all Paul invested heavily in one man, Titus. Thus when the time came for the evange-list church planter, Paul, to depart, Titus would be ready to move those ledg-ling churches forward in discipleship. This prepa-ration is just as important in today’s churches. No leaders stay forever, God always calls them some-where else, either to be with Him or to another church. Church leaders must constantly be train-ing and equipping others to take their place.
Paul left Titus with the assignment to “set in order what remains and appoint elders”. Each of those new-born churches would need leaders to guide them in their mission. The church is one entity that does not exist for its members. It exists for the glory of God and it exists for those who are not yet members. “Set-ting in order what remains” seems to mean organizing these new churches into effective functioning fel-lowships focused on giv-ing glory to God through worship, evangelism, and discipleship. It seems that Titus was tasked with pro-viding vision and mission for these churches. Titus
1:1 spells it out plainly. We are to seek knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness. The truth is good but it is never the end. Rather it is the means that leads to godliness.
Paul left Titus with a second assignment, “ap-pointing elders in every city”. Once an organiza-tion has vision and mis-sion in place, it needs good leaders who will guide the organization in implement-ing the vision and mission. Our churches are in dire need of good leaders. The late Howard Hendricks said that he knew of no church that could afford to hang out a sign that said “No help needed”. Good leadership is essential for the church. Much of the book of Titus is about de-veloping good leaders. Skills are important but nowhere close to as im-portant as moral purity and integrity. Integrity is what sets good leaders apart from bad leaders. If you give skills to a dishonest person, you have simply developed a better cheater.
We should remember that the qualiications and characteristics of lead-ers given in Titus as well as elsewhere in the Bible are meant as minimums that every Christian is ex-pected to strive for. Every believer in Christ is called to be conformed to the im-age of Christ, not just lead-ers. So as you read Titus, whether you are a leader yet or not, remember that you ought to be striving to meet those minimum stan-dards. If you are not yet a leader, you are intended to become one. ……[email protected]
Over the last few weeks I’ve been sharing informa-tion about the bills I iled during the most recent legislative session. The next bill in that series is HB1187 which is now Act 312 of 2013. The act is the culmination of several years of work and I’m very proud that it is now law.
According to the Initia-tive and Referendum In-stitute, twenty-three states allow some form of state-wide initiative and refer-endum elections. Two or three others only allow referendums and two states permit referendums only on constitutional amend-ments. Virtually all of them have legal prohibitions barring the use of taxpayer funds to inluence the out-come of these elections leaving Arkansas as one of only a few that permitted the practice. Several state laws recognize this sort of election tampering as a felony.
Arkansas law prior to Act 312 allowed a gov-ernmental entity or em-ployee to spend unlimited amounts of taxpayer funds manipulating the outcome of initiative or referendum campaigns as long as it was reported to the Ethics Commission. Few reports were ever iled and those who were found to have violated the law usually received a letter of repri-mand at most.
I have always believed that using taxpayer funds to campaign for or against
a ballot measure is dis-criminatory and a violation of the 14th Amendment. Taxpayers on one side or the other of the issue ind themselves ighting against campaigns funded by their own tax dollars. This does not provide equal protec-tion under the law and is fundamentally unfair.
HB1187 passed the House 79-2 with 19 mem-bers not voting. A few days later it passed the Senate 31-1 with 3 members not voting. March 11, 2013 Governor Beebe signed the bill into law as Act 312. The new law takes effect on August 16th. Viola-tions are a Class A mis-demeanor. Those found guilty of violating the law are permanently ineligible for employment as a public servant in the State of Ar-kansas.

and the Emergency Assis-
tance for Livestock, Hon-
eybees and Farm Raised
Fish Program (ELAP).
Some of the items cov-
ered under the three pro-
grams include lost hay, lost
livestock, downed fences
and clean up costs.
All three programs are
funded by the federal gov-
ernment and according to
Hall the funding will not
be available unless the
current farm bill passes in
congress.
Hall stated that Sena-
tors Mark Pryor and John
Boozman, and Representa-
tives Rick Crawford, Tim
Griffin and Steve Wom-
ack had voted for the bill,
while Representative Tom
Cotton had voted against
it.
Some in attendance ac-
cused Hall of using the
meeting to further Farm
Bureau’s political inter-
ests, but he assured every-
one that the only reason he
was there was to provide
information regarding di-
saster relief.
He went on to say that
the only reason he had
mentioned the farm bill
was because all of the pro-
grams he discussed were
funded by the bill.
Hall went on to stress
the need to document ev-
erything in regards to dam-
age that resulted from the
recent tornado and flash
loods.He encouraged every-
one to take photographs of
all damage and to gather
receipts that offer proof
of ownership of damaged
property.
He also encouraged
people to register for as-
sistance now even if the
funding wasn’t available.
Scott County Judge
James Forbes also ad-
dressed the crowd at the
request of Montgomery
County Judge Alvin Black.
Forbes stated that many
people expect FEMA to
come in and ix everything, but they don’t.
Forbes told the crowd,
“If FEMA comes in and
says they are here to help,
they aren’t. They come in
to gather information.”
He stated that FEMA
offers assistance to fund
repairs to the local govern-
mental infrastructure, such
as roads and bridges irst and then they look at help-
ing individuals. He also
pointed out that FEMA
will only help rebuild an
individual’s primary home.
Forbes reported that in
Scott County several of
the structures damaged
in the recent storm were
already being repaired
thanks to state assistance
and donations made by lo-
cal residents.
He also encouraged
Montgomery County resi-
dents to register for federal
assistance.
Forbes pointed out that
if the federal government
was looking at who needs
assistance and 300 people
in Scott County had reg-
istered, while only 20 had
registered in Montgomery
County, then they are go-
ing to help the county that
had the most registered.
Questions were asked
about cleaning up areas that
contained blue water streams
such as the Caddo River and
the Ouachita River.
He stated that there was
a form that can be obtained
through the ADEQ that al-
lows for short term clean
up.
Forbes stressed that
cleanup would take a long
time and pointed out that
the county oficials were focused on getting roads
cleared and bridges re-
paired.
David Miller from the
Farm Service Agency
(FSA) reported that he had
submitted a storm report
and is awaiting a response
from the federal agencies.
He stated that even if
Montgomery County is
eligible, not every resident
will qualify for assistance.
You must sign a form
stating that you can’t af-
ford to recover damages or
make repairs without gov-
ernment assistance, and the
repairs must be valued at
more than $1,000.
He also pointed out that
if an area has reported a
flood three times in 10
years then it isn’t eligible.
He stated that you have
to come to his office in
Mena to register for pro-
grams through the FSA.
Russell Swall of the
National Resources Con-
servation Service (NRCS)
stated that they work close-
ly with the FSA and the lo-
cal Conservation District.
He stated that the NRCS
had a program that might
offer assistance to those
who lost trees due to the
lash lood and tornado.Matthew Ervin with
the Arkansas Streamteam
program was also on hand.
Montgomery County
Judge Alvin Black reported
that FEMA had made their
preliminary assessment
and he expected the county
to qualify for assistance.
However, he stated that
Governor Mike Beebe only
requested public assistance
so there would not be any
FEMA assistance for indi-
viduals.
It was reported that
Governor Beebe only re-
quested public assistance
because he knew that Ar-
kansas would not qualify
for individual assistance.

Dear Readers Hello Readers, I have to
let everyone know we here at the center are planning a FUNDAY for the 2nd of July. This is our 4th. WE will have a cake walk, bingo, and Homemade Ice cream to top of the day. Please feel free to join us and enjoy the start of the Holiday.
It’s coming up on July 4th pretty quickly here and we all know what happens then. Family and friends get together grill and for many hit the water somewhere and in some way. Well I got a jump start on those activities this weekend. We went to the lake the day after summer began, helped my brother-in-law celebrate his 50TH-birthday. He in turn took me for a”RIDE” on the tube behind his boat. Now I’m just a few years away from over the hill myself, and have never been tubing. My thinking is: if the babies can do it..So can I. But the wisdom of begin very wrong hit hard after popping my knee out of joint just before my face was planted in the water. On a good note, (I never lost my gum). So, yes another “FUN “ride off my bucket list, but I think my bike riding could be over for most of the summer as well. But that’s what happens when you’re not a baby anymore and your mind says you can, but your body tells you NO.
Here a t the cen te r however your body will be telling you YES to the lunches. The only trouble you will have is deciding what to drink with your meal. Our menu looks like this: Wednesday the
26th- Pork Fritter on bun, baked beans, cold slaw, and jell-o with fruit. Then on the 27th- Hamburger on a bun with lettuce, tomato, and onion, French fries, confetti corn and ambrosia. Friday the 28th will be our breakfast day with biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, bacon, Orange juice and a fresh orange. Then Monday the 1st Chicken tenders, black-eyed peas, Cabbage, corn bread, and peach cobbler. The 2nd will be hamburger/ bun with veggies, Potatoes, baked beans, and watermelon. And Wednesday the 3rd will be Oven fried Chicken, baked potato/ sour cream, carrots, wheat bread and rosy pineapple. All meals are served with Skim milk, but we also offer butter milk, tea, coffee, water, lemon-aide, and sodas to buy.
W E N E E D A VOLUNTEER TO SET AT THE DESK. Several of our valued volunteers are out for the summer; we really need some help at this station. Begin a hostess is not hard work but is a necessary task; it only takes a few hours a day. We need someone, one or two days a week. If you would like help, just come in, because we sure could use you.
On our get well list this week we have, Gene Bridges, R.B. Carter, Lynne Tresch, Caryol Jones, Wilma Tedford, Morris Ragle and Evelyn Hill all missing from our regular crew. We want to wish them all a speedy recovery and pray that they rejoin us soon.
And lastly a quote from Eleanor Roosevelt sums up my weekend pretty good-“You gain strength, courage, and conidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do.” I did and now my knee hurts.
Until next time, enjoy the day and remember to give a hug away.

Are you Diabetic and eligible for Medicare? Have you recently received "An Important Message for People with Original Medicare" regarding diabetic testing supplies? Many of my customers have received a letter notifying them about changes in obtaining diabetic testing sup-plies. This letter is misleading and has confused many diabetic patients. The letter opens by stating that the beneiciary will continue to receive testing supplies; however, the patient will be forced to use a national mail order contract supplier. Unfortunately, the letter is unclear in stating that patients have the OPTION to use their local retailers. As of July 1, 2013, in order to bill Medicare for diabetic testing supplies, EVERY supplier, including local retailers, will be forced to accept national mail order contract pricing. As a result, local retailers are also going to be considered national mail order suppliers. Do not limit your customer service option by using a national mail-order house, when a local, family owned business is eager to take care of diabetic patients in your area. We not only offer diabetic testing supplies, but also diabetic shoes (which Medicare will pay for an-nually), and a full line of home medical equipment. Stop by or call one of our 5 convenient locations. HealthMart will be happy to take care of all your needs.

This week I heard some
one called out because peo-
ple felt like he was trying to
push his personal political
agenda off on others.
He stopped what he
was saying long enough
to assure everyone that
he wasn’t and then went
on saying the same thing
he had been saying before
being rebuffed.
The truth is, he probably
was pushing his politi-
cal agenda in one way or
another. Whether it was
intentional or not is irrel-
evant. The brass tax of the
matter is that we all have
our own agenda.
That is, we all have is-
sues we champion and
support.
Whether it be political,
religious, or philosophical,
we all have our ideals and
practices we think are wor-
thy of sharing with others.
As a newspaper editor
I am accused from time to
time of promoting a par-
ticular agenda.
To some I am too con-
servative and to others I
may appear to liberal.
I have been accused
of focusing too much on
sports by some and others
think I ignore them.
I guess if I am honest
with myself and you the
reader, I would have to say
there are certain things I
tend to focus my attention
on.
I like to promote our
community.
When you read the
Montgomery County News
you will not ind out what is going on in the Middle
East, or anywhere else
outside of God’s Country, otherwise known as Mont-
gomery County.
Now I might run an
article on an event that is
happening in one of our
neighboring counties, or
even within our state, but
I believe that there isn’t
anywhere in the world
more important than right
here.
When I write I don’t
write about the NBA fi-
nals, I write about the
Lady Lions going to the
state inals.I don’t wri te about
the latest celebrity gos-
sip scandal, I write about
who is singing on the Front
Porch Stage this week.
I could care less about
Kim and Kanye when we
have some of the best
families right here in Story
and Pine Ridge.
I guess if you want to
keep up with that other
stuff you can read about it
as you wait in line at Bob’s
Food City.
But if you want to keep
up with the Mount Ida
Lion football program, the
Oden trap shooting team,
or the Greta Lane Thrift Shop then this is the paper
for you.
Let me know if there
is something going on in
your neck of the woods. I
would love to share it with
the rest of the world.
What is your agenda?

The Atrium at Serenity Pointe“Living the Dream” in Retirement
“You feel like you’re on vacation, but you’re home.”
That’s how Lynn, a lifelong traveler, described The
Atrium at Serenity Pointe. The gated senior living
community is Arkansas’ premier choice for world-class, resort-
style living in gorgeous Hot Springs, recently named by the
New York Times as one of the best small art towns in America.
Where to Retire magazine recently named Hot Springs one of
the nation’s top ten places to retire. Huffi ngton Post’s Christine
Buckley called the area “the most magical place in America.”
Built along the shores of beautiful Lake Hamilton, The
Atrium is the ultimate retirement destination of seniors who
are ready to savor life to
its fullest. “This visually
stunning community
honors its residents by
surrounding them with a
qualifi ed, compassionate
staff and with every imaginable amenity,” explains Steve
Levato, The Atrium’s Executive Director. “There is no other
senior living community like it anywhere in the world.”
It’s really no stretch to call The Atrium a ‘designer’
retirement community. In addition to the incredible number
of amenities all included with the monthly fee, residents can
add or subtract services as needed, including 24-hour nursing.
Unlike other retirement communities, you can access a higher
level of care without the hassle of having to move to another
building.
With no buy-in requirements, The Atrium is truly second to
none in quality and care, and surprisingly affordable in price.
Unsurpassed in beauty, quality and care, The Atrium rivals any upscale resort destination. It includes these amenities as part of the monthly fee:
• Gated Community• Weekly housekeeping and linen service• State-of-the-art i tness center/i tness programs including salt water pool & spa• Men’s and women’s locker rooms for pool and i tness center• Entertainment (events and activities)• State-of-the-art stadium-style theatre with leather recliners• Library/media room with computers• Luxury billiards den with i replace• Lounge with i replace
