The La Plata Soybean Festival will begin this Friday night. The Carnival has pulled into town and has several rides and food vendors set up already. Be sure to enjoy yourselves this weekend.
The Atlanta Softball Tournament was held on Saturday, August 25th with games being held in La Plata and Atlan-ta. The championship games were held in Atlanta.
Bevier 12-Atlanta 5 (5 inning time limit); Schuyler County vs. 20 - Atlanta 0 (4 innings), Schuyler Co. 7 - Bevier 6 (5 innings time limit), La Plata 8 - Brashear 3 (6 inning time limit), Novinger 7 - La
Jerry Edwards, CEO of C & R Supermarkets, Inc., is proud to announce the recent acquisition of Mr. Holland Clem’s shares of C & R Market in La Plata, Missouri. The La Plata C & R has been previously owned by Holland Clem of La Plata and the late Rich-ard Ramsey of Macon, Mis-souri.
La Plata C & R Market was the fi rst and original C & R Market and was es-tablished in 1957. C & R consisted of two stores at that time. One was located downtown La Plata and the second located at the old
junction on Highway 63. The Hwy 63 store was lat-er sold to Darrell and Sara Fouch.
Holland and Richard pro-ceeded to expand their busi-ness to C & R Shelbina and C & R Palmyra. Mr. Clem retired over the next few years and sold his interest in those stores but has kept his ownership in the La Plata store for over 55 years.
Ramsey was soon joined by his brother-in-law, Jer-ry Edwards, in the C & R business and expansion be-gan to take place through Northeast Missouri. Also, Ramsey’s sons-in law,
Mark Thomas and Clay fos-ter, joined the business and this joint effort grew the C & R Markets into a chain of 12 current stores.
C & R is very excited about the current direc-tion of the La Plata C & R. The staff of the La Pla-ta store, headed by Store manager, Keith Turner and Meat Manager, Michael Riemenschneider, is dedi-cated to giving the citizens of LaPlata a top-notch, full service grocery store. With the expertise of Turner and Riemenschneider, there are many positive changes in store for the La Plata C & R.
Holland and Ella Clem want to thank all of our loyal customers for their many years of patronizing the La Plata C & R. Your continuing support has been a pleasure and one of the highlights of our lives. Holland would also like to take this opportunity to en-courage everyone to con-tinue to support C & R as full-service grocery stores in small towns are becom-ing fewer and fewer. Your support will help keep La Plata alive.

A Kirks-ville wom-an bought s o m e M i s s o u r i L o t t e r y Scratchers tickets for her and her husband to enjoy and ended up uncovering a $24,000 top prize. Roxi Cool-ey, 64, said she was skep-tical that top prizes e x i s t e d until she
Kirksville Woman Registers $24,000 Windfall
scratched the winning tick-et. The license bureau em-ployee was home with her husband, Greg, on Aug. 11 when they discovered the windfall.
“I had just told him that I bet they don’t put more than one big prize in here,” she recalled, referring to the “24K” Scratchers game. “I said, ‘I’d like to get the ‘Win All’ bar, but if I did, it would probably just be a $1.’ And about that that time, I got the ‘Win All.’ He said, “Well, scratch it off and see what it is.’ It was $2,400, and I just kind of sat there.” Greg said excitedly, “Keep scratching. They’re all going to be that!” Sure enough, the ticket con-tained the top prize in the game, $24,000. “So we jumped up and down, car-rying on. The dog was growling, because she didn’t know what was go-ing on,” laughed Cooley.
The couple returned to the store where they bought the ticket to have it checked. A clerk at Troy Mills Country Store, 23284 Highway H in Kirksville, confi rmed their good fortune. “It took three days for it to sink in,” said Cooley. They waited for a day off work to claim the prize, keeping the ticket in a “safe place” in the mean-time. “So I told her, ‘We can’t put it in the safe, be-cause the safe won’t lock. When you get that check, we better buy a safe,’” added Greg. That’s on the list of potential purchases, including new shingles for the house and a little extra fun on an upcoming vaca-tion to a NASCAR race.
Cooley explained that the couple enjoys playing Scratchers regularly and that “24K” has become one of her favorite games. “This particular ‘24K,’ I’ve been doing real well. I’ve
been winning like $100 and $50 along the way. So I just kept playing it,” she declared.
This isn’t the fi rst big win for the Cooleys. They won $25,000 playing Show Me 5 about 12 years ago. Since that win, she’s stuck to playing Scratchers like bingo and crossword, suggesting other players do the same. “Stick with the $2 and $3 ones,” she offered. “I’m just saying, I have more luck on those smaller amounts. I just can’t believe it wound up at Troy Mills. And mine, you know?” “24K” is a $2 game that offi cially began June 30. Cooley claimed the fourth top prize in the game. More than $6 mil-lion in prizes, including fi ve top prizes, remain in the game. Track prizes re-maining for any Missouri Lottery Scratchers game at MOLottery.com.

People follow Jesus for all the wrong reasons. Not everyone, of course. But some. Some in Jesus’ day followed him for the wrong reasons. Some were just looking for another free meal. Jesus offered them physical food when he fed the 5000. There could have been people that were following Jesus because he healed them or someone in their family. They were following him in case there was another medical problem. There may have been some fol-lowing Jesus because he got rid of a demon within them and they were fol-lowing because of the new feelings they were having or in case another demon got in them. Some were following Jesus just because of the novelty he brought in to their lives. They were bored with life and this was different.
Whatever the reason, there were a number of those who had been fol-lowing Jesus that left now. The words he spoke were too hard. Too impossible. The words could not be believed. So Jesus could not be believed.
Many of the things Jesus said and did were something that the people had never heard before or seen before. It was all so new to them. It was not what had ever been taught in the temple of the
Words could never explain the feelings you have for your children, EVER! But it is a whole entirely new experience when the grandchildren come along. It seems that when I’m away from home I fi nd myself missing her so very much. Of course I miss my children and friends and family and granted I’m never gone for more that a day or two at a time so really don’t give much thought to being away from home. And, mostly when I’m away from home I am with family or friends so you don’t really think about missing the ones you’ve left behind for that length of time, but this little gift from God named Quinci Jo, is a huge part of my heart that I have come to miss every minute of the day, even if I’m at home and she’s just across town at home with her mommy. I always have to get my “Quinci Fix” and if a day goes by without me getting to see her, I’m a very sad memaw. The smiles on her face or when she begins to pout up her little lips and cry are the looks I would never miss a moment of. Oh, she’s an ornery thing already at the age of 5 months, but she has stolen my heart and the best thing is..... I have another coming in a few months. Two by Christmas! I can’t wait. Seems that since my mama passed the holidays just haven’t been the same, but this year, well, I can honestly say I’m looking forward to them. Its not just a money game this year for the young that gather in my home for food and gifts. It will be a fi rst Christmas for my grandchildren and one of the fi rst holidays for awhile that I plan to enjoy, with many more to come.
It’s funny how we, as children, always loved to go to grandmas house, then as we get older and move on with our lives, we don’t go around as much as we used to. One thing I can say is that I wish my grandparents were around, as after my granddaughter arrived, I realize the importance that they portray in our lives and am saddened by the fact that I didn’t look at my grandparents at the age of 40 that I did at the age of 3 or 4. Grandparents are the ones that those great words of wisdom came from that our parents try to pound into our heads as children and teenagers. And, yet again, how shallow are our parents when we are youngsters, but how great are our grandparents.
I guess I never really gave a second thought to
those rules and helpful hints my parents laid out or gave advice for, but ya know, if Grandpa Max would of said the exact same thing to me the next day, it was golden. Words of Wisdom from the Wise. Well, you can bet your pension that Miss Quinci and Mister Lee will believe everything I tell them, because you get to follow your advice with ice cream or a new toy. We didn’t do that with our kids. But being the grandparent comes with a whole new set of rules, and we get to make them.
Eating in the living room, wearing your shoes in the house, feeding the dog from the table, drinking from our glass, playing in the water or the mud and snow and eating ice cream for breakfast, Yup! Those are some of the rules I get to break with them. And why not, my mom did it to me. I remember when Sara was little, I worked nights, so mom would let me sleep in and then one day I didn’t and guess what? Yup, Sara was having ice cream for breakfast. My mom just smiled and said “woops Red, we got caught”. Oh, Mary Lou, the things you did to me or gave to Sara when she was little are just a FEW of the small paybacks I get to give her when Lee gets here. So, lookout Sara, you better keep your eyes open.
This weekend will be Quinci’s fi rst Soybean Festival, she probably won’t remember much. She’s too young for the carnival or games in the park, but I will be showing her off as I push the stroller through the park. But will also be looking for you and those previous moments with your families as our cameras plan to capture the festival in color and show it to you again in next week’s edition.
Remember, early deadline this week, Thursday at noon, and we will be closed Monday for Labor Day. But be ready for an explosive edition with the 2012 Soybean Festival memories and events. I look forward to seeing you in the park.
Keep It Kool,Bec
synagogue before. Those things had never been done before.
All that Jesus did point-ed to Jesus being the Son of God and sent by God to bring us back to him. It also pointed to the love and generosity of God. The people didn’t get it. They followed Jesus as far as their own ideas and the-ology would allow them. They were not open to any new ideas about life and eternal life.
How about you? Are you ready for Jesus to do more with your life that you can by yourself? Are you open to new ideas that Jesus might bring into your life?
Pastor Denzil ThomasAtlanta, Mt. Zion, La
Plata United Methodist Churches
If you are looking for attention, perhaps the best route is to enter politics. On the front page of today’s newspaper, there are two different stories of politicians who have drawn attention—albeit unwanted. One misspoke about criminal assault; and another went swimming, some say indiscriminately.
Being watched is nothing new. When I was a boy, I bought a pack of cigarettes at the local grocery in our small town. My mother met me at the door of our home asking for those cigarettes. The storeowner’s wife had called to alert my mom. Whether you call it watching or snooping probably depends on whether you are doing the watching or being watched
Modern surveillance equipment makes it easier than ever to “survey” what others are doing, but nosing around existed long before present day paraphernalia. Usually folk are snooping for the bad stuff, for gossip items; however, the gospel of Mark tells us of an incident of people watching to catch Jesus doing good. “Jesus entered the synagogue (to worship), and they watched Him to see if He would heal the man on the Sabbath so they could accuse Him”. (Mark 3:1ff) They
watched so they could accuse Him of what? Of doing a good deed.
Believers sometimes chafe under this scrutiny; no one is perfect. Still, it is a reality we must accept. The world watches those who profess faith in Christ. A group of teenagers was inquiring of their youth leader about behavior for Christians. The youth leader fi elded many questions but grew weary when one kid said, “According to you, we can’t do nothin’.”
The leader responded with wisdom beyond her years, “Don’t take my words for it. Here is a good way to make your own decisions. Ask yourself, “If Jesus were here, would I invite Him to do this with me?”
While being watched may be distasteful to us, it can often bring the best from us. Athletes trying to make the team know they are being watched and try to do their best. A person taking a test for a job understands they are to be graded and do their very best. Perhaps believers’ understanding of scrutiny will bring the best from us. That being the case, maybe the words of the gospel hymn will inspire us, “His eye is on the Sparrow, and I know He watches me”.
Shepherds Call
The La Plata United Methodist Church sponsored a Kids Craft day on Tuesday afternoons during the summer months. They will continue to sponsor this activity during the school months. Kids Crafts will be offering the activity on Saturday’s beginning at 2:00 p.m. in the Methodist Church, all ages of children are welcome to attend. During the Soybean Festival, Saturday, September 1st crafts will be held at the Shelter House in the La Plata City Park from 10:00 to 12:00 and again from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. For more
This upcoming week-end is the annual Soybean Festival and we usually get questions regarding whether or not teens, and even pre-teens, can ride ATV’s in the parade on Labor Day.
The legal answer is “No”. Nowhere does the law make an exception for unlicensed and under-age drivers to ride these vehicles on any street or highway, or in any parade.
Has it been done in the past? Probably! What are the consequences of an accident, etc.?
If a parent, guardian, grandparent or anyone knowingly allowed a driv-er that was unlicensed or underage and an accident were to occur, it could defi nitely affect the status of any liability insurance. It’s also not a matter of “if” an accident is going
to occur, but “when”. Kids can be good driv-
ers. However, that doesn’t mean they have the judg-ment that comes with age and experience to handle a bad situation.
I, or any city employee, would never tell you to al-low an underage driver to ride in the parade.
Have a great festival.Charlie ThompsonMayor

The Adair County Extension Council, the oversight body for University of Missouri Extension, has announced it will host an Open House from 2-5 p.m. on Tuesday, September 4. It will be held at the Adair County Extension Center located at 503 E. Northtown Road in Kirksville (brick building located next to the back entrance of Walmart).
During the open house we will be showing off our newly renovated basement meeting room and other improvements made possible by grant monies. According to Bruce Lane, County Program Director, “the basement will once again be available for meeting and other community activities. The Extension Council is currently
Adair County Extension Center To Hold Open House September 4
reviewing guidelines that will make the facility available to the public at a reasonable cost.”
The open house will be informal, refreshments will be available, and a building dedication and ribbon cutting will be held at 4 p.m. with the assistance of the Chamber of Commerce.
According to Lane, the Adair County Extension Center has a long history in the community. The building was constructed in 1967 through funds raised in the community after the land where it is situated was donated by the late Dr. Rodabaugh. Over the years the facility has housed numerous educational programs for citizens involved with agriculture and served as a meeting place for numerous 4-H clubs,
other organizations and other functions. The building was also the site of a soil testing laboratory, although that service is now done at the University of Missouri.
The Adair County Extension Center now houses a horticulture specialist, Jennifer Schutter; a youth development specialist, Michelle Klem; livestock specialist and county program director, Bruce Lane; administrative assistant, Vanessa Miller and part-time secretary, Jill Belling. Other University of Missouri Extension Specialists that serve Adair County are Dr. Alix Carpenter, agronomy specialist; Darla Campbell, agribusiness specialist; Jane Hunter, human development specialist; Jennifer Mayfi eld,
nutrition and health education specialist; Jill Lane, nutrition program assistant; and Debby Whiston, family fi nancial education specialist.
Shelley Story, Adair County Extension Council Chair, leads an elected and appointed council of 21 members that work closely with faculty and staff to carry out the educational mission of University of Missouri Extension.
The open house on September 4 is open to the public and Lane urges anyone who has been associated or involved with Extension, as well as others who would simply like to learn more about the Extension program to stop by and see the renovated facilities.
