Many months ago, TheBoise City News, sent Gov.Fallin an e-mail to her officeinforming her that though we
were sure she and the Fed-eral Government were help-ing our farmers, that thepeople of Cimarron Countyneeded to see her boots on theground to know she cared.She has since visted Wash-ington D.C. and rung the bellto open the New York StockExchange. The Governor, hasyet to visit, (She missed twoopportunities while campaign-ing.) We offered a bounty of$50 for Governor Henry, butsince Ms. Fallin carried thecounty and she still hasn’t vis-ited, The Boise City News willpay $25 to the person thatproves to us she’s been hereas governor.

By C.F. DavidIn a return call to The Boise
City News, Asst. D.A. BuddyLeach confirmed that it isagainst the law to be in posses-sion of the “synthetic” mari-juana called K 2 or “spice”. Thedrug can be bought and oftenlegally sold as incense. It is asubstance that has been sprayedwith a chemical compound de-
D.A’s Office Confirms K2 Possession is unlawfulveloped in the mid-1990s. How-ever once in possession it be-comes an illegal drug and you maybe arrested if it is in your posses-sion.
Leach said simple possessioncould bring an eventual sentenceof two to 10 years; but, if the pos-session is within 1,000 feet of aschool or park, that sentencecould go up to four to 20 years.
Leach added that the drugis blamed for at least threedeaths downstate, very likelydue to its ability to raise bloodpressure and or heart rates.
Leach said that laws that willcome onto the books on Nov.1, are aimed at covering thechanges made to such a drugby the addition or use of otherchemical compounds.
For the last four weeks Ihave had the pleasure oftaking part with the scoutsboth boys and girls in a pro-gram called “God and Me”along with other pastors inthe community. We sharedlessons with the childreneach week about God. Itwas a great experience andI am thankful that I couldexperience it with them. Inthe group I lead (Thirdgraders) the students wereto memorize the Lord’sPrayer. This was a chal-lenge for the students butthey stood up to the chal-lenge. Conrad O’Dell wasone of my students and isalso a member of The FirstBaptist Church. I askedConrad if he would recitethe Lord’s Prayer for usduring our Sunday morningservice. He blessed us allwith a perfect reciting ofthe prayer and then led ourchurch family in the prayer.What a blessing all of thechildren are to us. PastorOrdean Nelson
