Devils 42-6.
MOUNT IDA - The past
comes to life Sat., Nov. 2 at the
Montgomery County Heritage
House Museum as they host
their annual Sorghum festival.
The festival takes visitors back
to the days when most families
grew a ield of cane and made their sorghum every fall. Sorghum, or
molasses as it is sometimes called,
was a staple in most families that
carried them through the winter.
The tradition takes center stage
on the museum grounds each fall.
According to Emilie Kinney, Di-
rector of the Heritage House Mu-
seum via a news release, the cane
is brought in from the ield and squeezed on site using two mills.
“The small one is operated by a
harnessed mule and the larger one
is engine driven. The think green
juice is cooked until it reaches
just the right consistency of rich
amber syrup.”
There will be free sampling
of sorghum on site and other
sorghum products available for
tasting and buying.
Cane was grown, along with
other crops, so a family could have
sorghum molasses throughout the
year. The stalks were hauled by
wagon to the mill. Powered by a
horse or mule, the mill pressed the
juice from the cane. Then the juice
was cooked in a copper pan until
it reached the right consistency
for molasses.
Folks at the museum are har-
nessing mules to operate the mill
for grinding and juicing and will
have sorghum cooking.
Rural families depended on
sorghum as a kitchen staple during
the winter months. It provided nu-
trients and was a standard sweet-
ener in most homes. Many folks
recall the typical breakfast of hot
biscuits, butter and thick sorghum.
There is no fee to attend the
festival. Activities will start at
10 a.m. and will “ probably last
till mid-afternoon.” The Heritage
House Museum of Montgomery
County is located at 819 Luzerne
St. in Mount Ida.

Well the end of the month is upon us. The end of the real hot weather is over and the cooler weath-er is begins. I would like to remind everyone that this week is Halloween and the kids will be running around in costumes and we all need to be on look out for them. Some times in the excitement of getting candy and trick and treat-ing those little / younger souls don’t watch for cars and such so we have to watch for them.
Speaking of treats we get treated to a nice hot meal ive days a week and here is that menu:
On the 30th- we will have chili, cornbread, cold slaw, lime mist gela-tin. Thursday the 31st is breakfast with scrambled eggs, fresh orange, ba-con, biscuit/gravy, orange juice and of course skim milk. November will start out with Friday’s meal of breaded ish, hash browns, cold slaw, roll and sherbet. Then on Monday the 4th- we will have Pork Steak, Yam patties, broccoli, roll, and banana cream pies. The 5th- we will eat Beef & Cheese enchiladas, to-mato salad, Spanish rice, and Lime cheesecake.
Wednesday the 6th- LS Chicken Scampi, But-tered noodles, Italian Vegetables, cucumber slices, French bread, and Chocolate pudding. All of that’s sounds pretty good to me. All lunches and frozen meals are served with skim milk. Come eat a lunch with us at 158 Senior Drive Monday thru Friday from 8am until 4pm to visit us
here at The CADC Senior Activity Center where we serve lunch, play bean-bag base ball, daily. Bingo on Tuesday, we have a jam session on Wednesday morning around 10 am and all are welcome to join!

Until next time make your moments count and hug a senior.
“The Black Hills”We are often exposed
to the history of how im-migrating white European settlers pushed Native Americans from their an-cestral lands. This 300+ year saga of exploitation and even genocide is an un-fortunate part of our coun-try’s rush to become a new nation. It, however, was only the latest incidence of a centuries long story of the strong conquering and displacing populations not strong enough to protect their ancient lands.
The dark green hills of western South Dakota and eastern Wyoming known as Paha Sapa to the Lakota Sioux and Black Hills to westerners has been the scene of numerous popula-tion displacements. Long before Jamestown and Plymouth were established the Black Hills were the ancestral hunting grounds of small unnamed tribes who then displaced by the Cheyenne. These hunt-ing grounds spread as far as central Canada became the home to hundreds of the various Cheyenne tribes who earlier had been forced west from Minne-sota by European settlers.
In the same year the United States declared its independence, 1776, the Lakota Sioux conquered the Cheyenne forcing them farther west and taking over the Black Hills terri-tory. The discovery of gold in the Black Hills in 1874 led to the expulsion of the Sioux from the Black Hills despite the U.S. having signed the Laramie Treaty of 1868 that disallowed white settlement in the hills.
Arriving today in the Black Hills 130+ years later all this history comes
rushing at you in a tidal wave tourist attractions. The inviting Black Hills are a magnet for visitors from around the world seeking a taste of the Wild West so popularized by Hollywood ilms. The Hills are now home to many unforgettable his-toric and scenic wonders including two National Monuments, one National Park, one Native Ameri-can Memorial, the Black Hills National Forest and one amazing State Park.
As we settled into our RV Resort Park anxious to revisit old haunts, of a honeymoon of almost ifty years ago and the site of my early school years in nearby Rapid City, a planned week long stay seemed inadequate. In-numerable campgrounds and RV Parks are found in every corner of the Black Hills so choosing a spot versus inding a spot becomes the challenge. We chose a large RV Re-sort located just minutes from Mt. Rushmore and the Crazy hose Memorial with 350 sites, featuring two swimming pools. It, also, offered a $2.00 pan-cake breakfast, pizza, ice cream, and coffee shops essential for today’s mod-ern campers. Wow has camping changed in ifty years!
Determined to make the most of our visit we spent the irst day studying the areas maps planning our itinerary for the next week while decompressing from our 1400-mile drive to this ancient land. It was agreed we would get an early start the next morning for an early hike along the foot of Mt. Rushmore for a close up view of those amazing faces.
Once again we ind ourselves speechless. Saying “Thank you” to this community, county
and even the surrounding counties just does not
seem like enough.
The fundraiser given last week for James and
I was overwhelming to say the least. We want
everyone to know how much we appreciate all
the hard work and love shown to us. Whether
it was donating food or time, cooking, assem-
bling or delivery, we know there was a lot of
hard work done by all.
A special “Thank you” to the Mount Ida Phar-
macy gang and other special friends for doing
the fundraiser for us.
I remember a conversation with our son “Matt”
one time when he was very young. He asked me
“Mom” Are we rich? I almost laughed until I re-
alized he was serious. After a moments thought,
I told him.. “Son, we are rich in Blessings” and
that still holds true today. May God bless each
and everyone of you.
Love to all
James and Linda Abernathy
I do believe colder weath-er is here, good time for soups and stews/ We were blessed with a good selec-tion of soups when we went to Little Rock last week. When we went to pick up USDA food we were getting salvage and the soups were abundant. There has been some interest in the collec-tion of food for the Christ-mas Blessing. As you know we hand out food for our clients Christmas dinner and several churches have asked what they could collect for us. We will need green beans, corn and cake mixes just to name a few things. If anyone out there would like to donate money I can get the food cheap. If a church or a group of people want to collect those items for us we will be happy to get them and it will cut down on what we buy. The meat will prob-ably be a whole chicken and we will also give out eggs for baking. The eggs will be provided for free I believe but we will need money to help purchase the chick-ens. If you want to help just contact me and we will talk about what you might do.
Regular donations are coming in and we truly ap-preciate your kindness and
your generous giving. Dur-ing the winter months after Christmas is over is when the donations sometimes slow down but we still hand out food so help us if you can.
You may contact me at 870 867 7168 or by mail at P.O. Box 1443, Mount Ida, AR 71957. We will be happy for you to visit with us at 117 Ray Drive, Mount Ida, AR.
Jon Ahrens, Maureen Tanner and I went to Little Rock for food and David Anderson, Maureen and I went again to Hot Springs to Project Hope for food. We try to go less often and get more food at one time to cut down on gas and time spent. It is work-ing out pretty good for us. Please remember us in your prayers and help if you can.
We realize everyone cant help but collecting plastic grocery bags help so you might be able to participate in that way if you would like. Until next time. stay safe and look around you to see who needs help. Some people will never ask for help but need it terribly. One act of random kindness goes a long way.

HalloweenCrossword
Halloween is a children’s holiday that occurs each year in the United States on Oc-
tober 31. Kids dress up in costumes and go door to door in their neighborhoods to re-
ceive candies and treats after saying “Trick or Treat!” Today, the most important thing
to remember when “Trick or Treating” is safety. Many kids no longer go door to door.
Instead, they attend “Trick or Treating” events at places such as malls, churches, and
community centers. When going out, be sure to always have a large group of people
with you at all times, and remember to include an adult. Wear costumes that are bright
in color, and use a relector if you are walking in the dark. After the fun and before you enjoy your treats, have a trusted adult verify that your candy is safe to eat. Be courte-
ous to other “Trick or Treaters” and to those who hand out candy. Don’t forget to say
thank you.

My sister in law Reva Reed was called to her eternal home on Saturday, October 26. October 24th she had driven herself to Hot Springs for a test on her arteries in her neck. She passed out and fell leaving the building. Tests showed she had a bleeding aneu-rysm and the doctor didn’t think she would live even if they operated. Thank God she didn’t know to be in pain and could hear people talk to her. Please pray for her husband Paul Dee and daughter Paulette Reed and all of the family. Reva loved the Lord and was generous in giving to help support Refuge Bap-tist Church, Muddy Creek Church of God, Prairie Grove Church of God and the youth. She enjoyed singing gospel songs and she played the piano. We will all greatly miss Reva.
Eddie Stanley of Sims departed this life on Oc-tober 26th for an eternal home, where there is no more cancer, sorrow and pain. Please pray for his wife Betty, daughters Kim and Christy and all the family.
Refuge Baptist Church hosted Halloween Celebra-tion for the children and youth Sunday evening. No Halloween costumes but had lots of games, candy, cookies, hot dogs, chili, chips and etc. which they greatly enjoyed. Each Wednesday night the chil-dren eat supper at Church and have bible lessons and sometimes crafts. All chil-dren are invited.

Monday we began our week with our morning exercise and then we went into the activity room to play bingo and of course we played right up until time to go and wash up for lunch. We enjoyed an in-spirational hour of music and song and then we back to the activity room where we made a new card for our friends and family for Halloween and they turned out so cute.
Tuesday we had our daily exercise and then we went into our activity room where we did a little cooking in the kitchen. We played a couple rounds of sikpbo to help pass along the afternoon hours.
Wednesday after our morning exercise class we had our morning exercise class and then we celebrat-ed our October birthdays during our lunch hour. We had our weekly Bible study group in the activity area after lunch.
Thursday we had our exercise class and then we loaded up and went to the thrift store in search of a good bargain, and of course we found many! Some of us gathered in the auditorium and watched Coal Miners Daughter and then a group of us played dominos in the dining
room.Friday after our exer-
cise class we did a little shopping in our “country store” using our activ-ity bucks for the month. We met up front and took the little van to town and went to the dollar store where we picked up some much needed items for the weekend, and stopped by Sun Screen Video to pick out a movie for Saturday. We returned home just in time to be greeted by our good friends the yarn workers.
Saturday we had our morning exercise and then we got a little pampering with manicures and nail polishing. We enjoyed a movie, popcorn, and drinks in the auditorium to pass along the afternoon hours.
Sunday we had our Sunday school class in the auditorium, and then after lunch we had our devotional hour and they always leave us feeling as if we can face the week ahead with a smile!

The voters of District 20 have twice granted me the privilege of representing this region in the Arkansas House of Representatives. As you know, members of the Arkansas House are el-igible to serve three terms for a maximum of six years in ofice. For the last sever-al weeks I’ve been ponder-ing the decision of whether or not to seek a third term as your representative. The job of representing more than 29,000 people in the state legislature is a re-sponsibility that demands the full attention of anyone who serves in the position. The decision to enter or to continue in public ser-vice should never be made without giving careful consideration to the time required, the gravity of the decisions that must be made and the impacts on one’s family, inances and health.
I’ve spent much time in thought, prayer and dis-cussions with family as I’ve reached my decision.
This week I’m announc-ing that it is my intention to seek reelection. There is simply too much at stake for me to walk away when important work is incom-plete. If the folks of this district choose to hire me for another 2 years, I will continue my focus on gov-ernment eficiency, regu-latory reforms and trans-parency. Real reforms in each of these areas are essential to creating a job friendly state and are es-sential if we are to once again make our state the “Land of Opportunity.” I am committed to doing everything in my power to ensure that Arkansas is the best place on earth to live, work and raise a family.
As always, please re-member that I work for you. If I can assist you with a state agency problem or another issue of concern please contact me. My email is [email protected] or you are al-ways welcome to call/text me at 479-234-2092.
classes full of kids from our
area.” Jeremy stated when
talking about the future of
the gym.
The Gwin’s want ev-
eryone to participate in
their classes and men-
tiooned that scholarships
are available on a needs
basis.
“We don’t want anyone
to not come because of the
cost. We understand that
things are tight for ev-
eryone, so we want to do
what we can to get kids in
here.” Jeremy remarked.
MMA, or mixed martial
arts, fighting has become
very popular in recent
years, but Jeremy stated
that his classes will focus
on grappling as a sport.
He explained that kids
will start on the mat and
learn basic grappling for
several classes before
they start working on take
downs.
Jeremy went on to say
that grappling sports are
statistically among the
safest sports for youth.
When compared to
some of the striking styles
many people participate
in, grappling poses a safer
alternative according to
Jeremy. He points out that
no one is getting hit in the
head while you grapple.
Classes are no gi and
students are asked to wear
black shorts with no pock-
ets. Jeremy explained that
fingers and hands can get
caught in the pockets of
opponents and cause in-
jury. He asks if you wear
shorts with pockets that
you sew them up.
Students will not be
awarded belts, but will
have the opportunity to
progress through five
ranks signified by col-
ored t-shirts.
Jeremy said that he
plans to have local tour-
naments with gyms in
Mena and Hot Springs
and he hopes to eventu-
ally form a travel team
for tournaments. He stat-
ed that combining with
teams from other area
gyms gives everyone an
opportunity to compete
on a larger team.
Students also learn
discipline and become
m o r e p h y s i c a l l y f i t
while participating in
the class.
Jeremy added that the
classes aren’t just for kids
and encourages people
of all ages to come try a
class.
Eve ryone ge t s one
week free and classes are
$80 a month and $60 if
you enroll two or more
family members.
Classes are held Tues-
days and Thursdays for

management areas. The
regulation is designed to ad-
dress unsafe boating during
waterfowl season by assess-
ing points for boating viola-
tions. Major problem areas
on WMAs will be marked
with warning signs.
Before the new regula-
tion, violation points were
not assessed for unsafe
operation of boats. Speciic violations that will be ad-
dressed by the new regula-
tion include reckless boat-
ing, moving at speeds that
are considered unsafe, boat-
ing under the inluence and creating hazardous wakes
when passing or approach-
ing other boats. Violation
of the new regulation will
result in six violation points
toward revocation of a hunt-
ing license.
The Commission also:
*Approved a budget in-
crease of $44,800 for the
purchase of swift-water
rescue life vests for the En-
forcement Division.
*Granted a surplus 18-
foot SeaArk boat and Mer-
cury outboard motor to the
Lafayette County Ofice of Emergency Services. The
boat will be used as a dive
team and rescue boat by the
agency.
*Granted surplus sur-
veillance equipment to
several law enforcement
agencies across the state.
*Approved seve ra l
boating access improve-
ments across Arkansas.
The accesses include Pine
Ridge Road at De Queen
Lake in Sevier County,
Palarm Creek Access in
Pulaski County, White
River Ranchette Access
in Marion County, Big
Hurricane Lake Access in
White County, and Wat-
tensaw Bayou Access in
Prairie County and the Old
Factory Site Access on the
Little Missouri River in
Pike County.
*Heard an update on the
state’s turkey brood survey.
The survey suggested that
the turkey reproduction in
2013 was lower than in
2012.
*Approved a new regu-
lation for primate restric-
tions. The guideline coin-
cides with new state regu-
lations that were approved
by the Legislature.
*Approved funding for
three new state wildlife
grant projects. The projects
include surveys on four
frog species of conserva-
tion concern, determining
distribution and abundance
of two species of burrow-
ing crayish in southwest-ern Arkansas, and research-
ing forest management
techniques for bottomland
hardwood forests.
*Approved a budget
increase of about $1.3 mil-
lion to implement a Re-
covery Land Acquisition
Grant project to protect
three endangered species
and one threatened spe-
cies. The federal money
will go toward purchasing
1,611 acres adjacent to the

GAME OF THE WEEK
No. 2 Bearden at No. 6
Gurdon
A year ago, Bearden de-
feated Gurdon 28-26 Week
9 and again three weeks
later 18-14 in the second
round of the playoffs.
Gurdon is surging again
after its 34-15 loss Week
4 at Dierks. Senior DT
Devante Charles (6-2, 300;
24 ACT) playing less of-
fense and more defense
where he has 47 tackles,
including two sacks. Sopho-
more Jackson Kirkpatrick
leads Gurdon with 67 tack-
les followed by senior Nick
Smith with 49 stops. Senior
QB Austin Kirkpatrick has
shown more patience this
year, completing 60 per-
cent of his passes for 1,097
yards and 18 touchdowns
with just one interception.
Senior slotback Jackie Har-
vill paces Gurdon with 549
rushing yards.
Bearden counters with
junior QB Jamond Young,
who just passed for a career-
high 238 yards (and three
TDs) in a thrilling 28-20
win at No. 5 Rison. Senior
WR Quentin Wilson caught
eight passes for 173 yards
and three TDs in his best
night of varsity football.
Senior NG Darwin Parham
spearheads the defensive
front with 65 tackles, in-
cluding 13 last week at
Rison. Junior Jameko Lowe
led Bearden at Rison with
17 tackles, followed by ju-
nior Justin Horstkamp with
16 stops.

WEEK 9
PREDICTIONS
(favored team in ALL
CAPS followed by point
spread)
3-2A
WALNUT RIDGE (32)
at Augusta: No. 20 Walnut
Ridge used a balanced at-
tack last week to crush 3-2A
preseason favorite Salem
60-28 with senior Cole
Hicks running 15 times for
172 yards and two TDs.
Junior Tyler Binkley ran
12 times for 92 yards and
two TDs. Junior Cash Lee
caught four passes for 89
yards and two TDs. Walnut
Ridge appears a lock for the
No. 2 playoff seed with its
Week 4 win over McCrory
and a Week 10 game vs.
Cedar Ridge (1-7).
MCCRORY (25) at Ce-
dar Ridge: McCrory all but
locked up the No. 3 playoff
seed last week with its 32-
14 win at Marked Tree. Tal-
ented sophomore backield of QB Cade Campbell and
RB Kaigen Rogo should
run wild early this week at
Cedar Ridge.
C r o s s C o u n t y a t
MARKED TREE (2) :
Both teams limping into a
matchup that used to deter-
mine the conference crown
2005-2008. Cross County
sophomore RB Anfernee
Davis (1,371 yds, 21 TDs)
sprained an ankle last week,
when sophomore and lead-
ing tackler Holden Byassee
(79 stops) injured a hip.
Both had started at line-
backer in recent weeks to
shore up a porous defense.
Marked Tree counters with
senior QB Brody McCrary
who distributes the ball
evenly to multiple skill-
position athletes.
E. POINSETT COUN-
TY (42) at Salem: EPC
defense (221 yds & 17 ppg)
held Augusta to 140 yards
last week and forced six
turnovers. The EPC offense
(381 yds & 43.3 ppg) has
not punted in three weeks
since the return of senior
OL Trevor Brown.
4-2A
Decatur a t UNION
CHRISTIAN (35); Decatur
ran seven plays in the irst half last week for negative
yards and trailed No. 12
Hector 39-0. UC senior QB
Braxton Smith completed
10 of 17 passes for 236
yards and four TDs in a
42-0 blowout of Hartford.
Senior Joel Murdock caught
four passes for 90 yards
and two TDs. Murdock (68
tackles) paces a UC defense
that allows 283 yards and
27 ppg.
J.C. Westside at HACK-
ETT (15): Hackett defense
could not contain Dierks
RB Trendin McKinney (5-
9, 200) last week when the
sophomore ran nine times
for 134 yards and a TD and
caught four passes for 56
yards and a TD, mostly in
the irst half. This week's assignment: slow down J.C.
Westside junior and go-to
running back Jeff Sage.
W E S T E R N Y E L L
COUNTY (28) at Hart-
ford: Western Yell junior
QB Trent Cobb, junior RB
Chris Thygesen and junior
WR Alex Thygesen enjoy
big nights.
MAGAZINE (11) at
Mountainburg: Senior LB
Mason Suttles, all-league
LB Billy Yang and sopho-
more NG Charley Ember-
son (5-8, 260) spearhead
a Magazine defense that
allows just 12 ppg.
HECTOR is open.
5-2A
Bigelow at CUTTER
M STAR (2): Bigelow's
pinching, slanting defense
gave No. 10 Magnet Cove
its last week, allowing just one TD in a 20-7 loss. It
tries to slow Cutter's lead-
ing rusher, senior Austin
Morphew, this week. Mor-
phew ran 19 times (mostly
jet sweeps) last week for
148 yards and a TD in
a 25-14 win at Conway
Christian. Cutter's defense
forced Conway Christian
sophomore QB Jakob Hen-
ry into two interceptions,
returning one 60 yards for
a TD.
Conway Christian at
MAGNET COVE (19):
Magnet Cove's defense
bent but never broke last
week in a 20-7 win at Bi-
gelow. Senior LB Jacob
Costello returned a fumble
96 yards for a TD, and
Colton Sleigh returned a
fumble 4 yards to seal the
win with a minute to go.
Magnet Cove's defense ze-
roes in on Conway Chris-
tian utility man, senior
Chandler Ferrand (109
rushing yards vs. Cutter
M.Star).
Quitman at MOUNT
IDA (38): No. 14 Mount
Ida in solid position to
grab the No. 2 playoff
seed, likely playing host
to Murfreesboro in the
first round. Mount Ida
plays host to No. 37 Poyen
Week 10.
Mountain Pine at POY-
EN (45): Poyen whipped
Quitman 54-0 last week.
Mountain Pine has dropped
17 in a row.
6-2A
Des Arc at CARLISLE
(12): The 6-2A title on the
line. Carlisle has outscored
Des Arc 109-14 the past
three years. Carlisle won
49-6 last year, 28-8 in 2011
and 32-0 in 2010. Des Arc
last knocked off Carlisle
30-22 in two overtimes in
2009. Senior RB/LBs Bo
Weddle (8 ypc) and Deron
Ricks (11 ypc) lead Carlisle
on both sides of the ball.
Weddle, known for his 4.5
speed and high football IQ,
is disciplined when reading
and reacting to defenses.
Des Arc senior QB/OLB
Jalen Holloway (28 ACT)
quarterbacks both sides of
the football. Des Arc lacks
a breakaway threat, but
senior Zac Devore paces
the Eagles with more than
600 rushing yards. Senior
Danerryen Spencer leads
a Des Arc defense that al-
lows 14 ppg.
England at HAZEN (8):
Hazen rebounded from its
Week 7 loss to Carlisle to
pop Palestine-Wheatley
44-14 last week. Junior QB
Tyrik Harris accounted for
three early TDs as England
buried winless Clarendon
63-12.
B r i n k l e y a t PA L -
WHEATLEY (6): P-W
claims the fifth and fi-
nal playoff berth from the
6-2A. P-W and Brinkley
lost by identical scores last
week, 44-14 to Hazen and
Des Arc, respectively.
Marvell at CLAREN-
DON (2): Clarendon gets
irst win, expected to re-
ceive forfeit from Marvell.
7-2A
DIERKS (16) at Spring
Hill: No. 5 Dierks defense
allows just 11.8 ppg, led by
senior MLB Andy Tedder.
Dierks led Hackett 35-0 at
halftime last week and won
35-7. The Spring Hill Flex-
bone features sophomore
fullback Jacob Crow, senior
QB Katlin Hamilton and
senior halfback Justin Rose.
F o r e m a n a t M U R -
FREESBORO (7): Foreman
senior RBs Reggie Hender-
son (11.3 100 meters) and
Dairyon Jones own excel-
lent speed. Murfreesboro
counters with senior LB
Jaben Snowden and sopho-
more Daniel Robinson, who
leads the Rattlers in rushing
and tackles.
Lafayette County at
MINERAL SPRINGS (2):
Mineral Springs still play-
ing hard despite its record.
Mineral Springs, which
averaged 10 wins the past
three years, likely misses
the playoffs for the irst time since 2007. Mineral's 28
playoff berths rank second
only to Rison's 37 among
current 2A teams.
BEARDEN (6) at Gur-
don: See 2A Game of the
Week.
8-2A
Hermitage at JUNC-
TION CITY (49): Junction
City junior LB Josh Arm-
strong (126 tackles) needs
just seven more stops to
break the school record for
tackles in a season. Junction
City secured a share for
the league crown last week
with a 49-0 win at Parkers
Chapel.
P a r k e r s C h a p e l a t
WOODLAWN (1): Wood-
lawn still scrapping, con-
suming time with its Wish-
bone offense. Junior RB
Jeffery Jones ran 18 times
last week at Strong for 117
of Woodlawn's 229 rushing
yards.
RISON (10) at Strong:
Rison ran 58 times last
week for 213 yards (3.7 ypc)
against a stingy Bearden
defense that allows 9.9 ppg
this season. Rison senior
RB Jokenzie Broughton
paced Rison with 108 yards
and a TD. Strong got past
pesky Woodlawn 35-14
last week on 124 yards and
two TDs by senior Tevion
Hicks.
Norphlet JV at HAMP-
TON (7) (Mon.): Hampton
picks up third win of the
year after defeating Hermit-
age 28-14 last week.
BEARDEN (6) at Gur-
don: See 2A Game of the

Vicksburg, Miss... The
U.S. Army Corps of Engi-
neers (USACE) will waive
day use fees for veterans, ac-
tive and reserve component
service members and their
families at the more than
2,400 USACE-operated rec-
reational areas nationwide on
Veterans Day, 11 November
2013. This includes all recre-
ational areas in the Vicksburg
District.
USACE does not charge
an entrance fee to access its
parks. The waiver covers fees
for boat launch ramps and
beaches but does not apply
to camping and camping-
related services or fees for
specialized facilities such as
group picnic shelters. State
agencies that manage rec-
reational areas on USACE
lands are encouraged, but not
required, to offer the waiver.
The Veterans Day fee
waiver began in 2006 as a
way to honor the men and
women who have served our
nation and the armed forces.
“This Veterans Day, we
invite our veterans, active
and reserve service members,
and their families to spend
some time together enjoying
America’s great outdoors
free of charge,” stated Colo-
nel John Cross, Vicksburg
District Commander.
Although the primary mis-
sion of Vicksburg District’s
lakes and waterways are for
lood damage risk reduction and logistics of commodities,
millions individuals visit the
recreational areas annually
to enjoy the camping, play-
grounds, swimming areas,
several types of trails, ishing, boat ramps, marinas, and
marina slips. They also con-
tribute hundreds of jobs and
millions of dollars into the
local economies. The Corps
is the largest federal provider
of outdoor and water-based
recreation in the nation. For

recreation site nearest you

MOUNT IDA – Players
from seventh, eighth and
ninth were given a chance to
score Thursday night as the
Mount Ida Lions cruised to

tain Pine Red Devils.

of football.

301 total yards while hold-
ing Mountain Pine to only
27 yards of offense.
Bryson Huff had two
carries for 93 yards and
two touchdowns. Jona-
than Lagrange also had two
touchdowns and a two point
conversion on seven carries
for 59 yards.
Trevor Fryar had four
carries for 73 yards, a
touchdown and a two point
conversion.
Caleb Woodfield had
four carries for 23 yards
and a two point conversion
and Dallas Weston had
two carries for 21 yards, a
touchdown and a two point
conversion.
Bridger Farmer had two
carries for three yards and a

Online voting is now
open at harlemglobetrotters.
com/rule, where all fans can
choose which new game-
changing rules they want to
see in their hometown.
The Globetrotters were
the first organization in sports and entertainment to

the fan response was so
overwhelming, the team is
doing it again – but with a
major twist.
The 2014 online ballot

seen revolutionary rules:

Hand Jersey” they can pass
among each other. The
player who is wearing this
jersey will receive double
points on made baskets.
•Make or Miss – The quarter begins with only two players on the court for
each team. When a team
scores, a teammate may
enter the game. When they
miss, the player missing the
shot must leave the court,
leaving his or her team-
mates shorthanded.
•Trick Shot Challenge – Via three challenge lags per team, each coach can
challenge the other team to
make a trick shot. If the
team makes the trick shot,
they earn ive points. If they miss, the other team
receives ive points. Tickets start at $23.00
and are now available at
harlemglobetrotters.com,

SORGHUM FESTJunction of Luzerne St.
& Hwy. 27 SouthWe now know of two
more gospel song writ-ers from our ‘neck of the woods’. For quite a few years, Olen and G. W. Payte wrote for a couple of the companies that published Singing School song books. The book companies published twice a year in the spring and fall for the traditional singing school seasons. Typically annual commu-nity events were planned
around crops, both the planting and the harvest-ing. There were always newly composed songs included in each new pub-lication. We are still hop-ing to acquire some song books with songs of local writers included!
Has anyone else cut open any persimmon seeds? We’ve heard from a few people who’ve said it’s ‘spoons’ all the way. So, check your wood pile, ill the propane tanks, get out your long underwear and make sure the snow shovel is handy. It’s sup-posed to be a hard winter,
folks! Here is a follow-up to
the Civil War publica-tion by Dan Singleton featuring the activity of the 4th Arkansas Infantry Regiment of the CSA. In compiling accurate in-formation regarding the marches of the 4th Arkan-sas Infantry, Dan copied
the service records of all the enlisted soldiers. He was able to tell the route and a soldier’s status by several types of informa-tion listed. When he in-ished his irst manuscript and completed the pub-lishing, he decided that the enormous amount of time spent transcribing the ser-
vice records off of micro-ilm should not only serve him for his research but also family members who might want full informa-tion about an ancestor’s experiences with the 4th Arkansas. There are 1171 service records recorded. We have a copy available in our Research Center for the public’s use. We can also put you in touch with Dan if you would like to personally order a copy.
A very interesting new item has been added to our Gift Shop inventory! We are carrying hand crafted bolt action ink pens. The
pens are made to resem-ble a .30 caliber cartridge with the body of the pen made from various types of wood. There are a va-riety of inishes available. A small molded rile shape serves as the pen clip and a unique bolt action is incorporated as the pen point release. These are very clever and beautiful-ly made. It is also possible to request certain specii-cations. Stop by and see these unusual pens!
We certainly look for-ward to seeing YOU at the Museum for the Sorghum Fest this weekend!
While this time of the
year brings out the spooky
creatures at Halloween, it
also usually brings along
the irst frost of the year. While frost on the pump-
kin is good thing for us
deer hunters, it can cause
some serious issues for
cattle producers with john-
songrass pastures. Scat-
tered frost across the state
can turn a good forage
deadly. That’s a little
Spooky!
Late summer rains
brought on a lush of john-
songrass in many pastures
and it became dominant in
some ields. When john-
songrass becomes stressed
from drought or frost, it
can produce prussic acid
(hydrocyanic acid) which
is very toxic to livestock.
Immature plants and re-
growth following haying
or grazing contain the
highest levels. Light frosts
that occur in fall can wilt
tops of the plants causing
them to become toxic.
Prussic acid toxicity can
kill cattle quickly, often
before a producer has a
chance to observe that
the animal is under stress.
Sorhgum/sudan, green-
graze, grain sorghum, and
forage sorghum can also
develop prussic acid af-
ter frost. Frost-damaged
johnsongrass should not
be grazed for at least seven
days after the irst killing frost. It is best to delay
grazing until the frosted
plants become completely
dried out and paper brown
colored. Do not graze it at
night when frost is likely.
To reduce risk even farther,
don’t turn hungry cattle di-
rectly out on johnsongrass
pasture. Make sure they
have grazed other forages
irst or ill them up on hay. Silage may contain
toxic quantities of prussic
acid, but it usually escapes
in gaseous form while
being moved and fed. If
frosted forage is ensiled,
allow fermentation to take
place for at least six to
eight weeks before feed-
ing. Prussic acid dissipates
as the plants dry out. Prop-
erly dried johnsongrass
hay does not conatin prus-
sic acid and is safe to feed.
For more informa-
tion about prussic acid
in forages please contact

A spooky time of the year for your pasture
I am as patriotic as any-
one and I like to think the
best of my community.
Recently it was made
known to me that a vet-
eran was maligned behind
his back for daring to ask
a local business if they
had a military discount.
For all those who do
support this show of ap-
preciation, I commend
you as true patriots.
The military has con-
stantly stood between
Americans and those who
hate and would do harm to
Americans. Our mili-
tary veterans served
t h i s c o u n t r y d u r i n g
wars, police act ions,
interventions and our
war on terrorism.
Our reservists have
not only stepped forward
during local disasters,
but have also been called
to active duty to sup-
port the full-time military
forces. Practically every-
one knows a soldier or
veteran and respects what
that soldier has done and
thetoll it took on them
personally.
Let us spread that
pride and appreciation,
thanking those in uni-
form for serving and
s h a c k i n g t h e h a n d s
of veterans for all they
have done before.Respectfully,
Larry Barrows, MCVC
We need you to join our
movement
Abused and neglected
children need more than
the foster care and child
welfare system can pro-
vide.
A 6-year-old girl rescued from an abusive father only
to be bounced around to
eight foster homes and six
different schools over the
course of two years.Four
children separated from
one another and placed in
different locations after
their mother abandoned
them.
These are not isolated
stories. They are every-
day realities of children in
the foster care and child
welfare system. A system
full of devoted and deeply
caring people that is sim-
ply too overburdened and
under resourced to protect
the rights and needs of
vulnerable children.The
solution is a CASA volun-
teer—a specially trained
advocate, appointed by a
judge, who ights for the rights of children during
the most vulnerable time
of their young lives. A
trusted adult empowered
to ensure that each child is
well cared for—able to ind a safe, loving, permanent
home. Every child in the
foster care and child wel-
fare system should have a
CASA volunteer. You can
help us in this quest by pro-
viding the critical inancial support, or by becoming a
CASA volunteer yourself.
CASA of the Ouachita
Region is one place where
a single individual—you—
can make all the difference.
