The Lewis County Historical Society has a new home. Society mem-bers Clark and Lana Todd made available a build-ing that was vacant after Dr. Galbraith retired ear-lier this year. Historical records had previously been stored in the home of Stu and Jean Purvine.

Construction workers clearing land on the old Culver-Stockton College golf course (Riverview) unearthed unmarked tombs. Two caskets were found on Sept. 19. A his-torians report in the cus-tody of Culver-Stockton College indicated those buried there had been re-interred in Forrest Grove Cemetery. After checking with the Attorney Gener-als Offi ce and deciding there would be no way to notify next of kin, the two caskets were re-interred north of the area cleared. The remains were deter-mined to be at least 120 years old. Lewis County Historical Society reports that the cemetery would grounds located on the old golf course was called Canton Cemetery and had a record of about a dozen individuals buried there at some time.

The Dog ‘N’ Suds entertained all the boys who played in the Canton Recreational Association

I’m not an incredibly political person- I’m not going to spend countless hours sending letters to congressmen, senators and political parties complain-ing about how they’re spending our tax dollars. Given, I’m not always happy to see the effects of some political choices (such as pulling funding from schools and other education throughout the country), but as long as I don’t feel imposed upon, I’m fi ne. My husband and I live a simple life- we work, we come home spend as much time as we can with our daughter and family, enjoy ourselves with the occasional din-ner and movie, and pay our bills. We don’t feel the need to get ‘caught up’ in the whirlwind that is a political battle, but there’s one transgression that I believe has, in its own way, imposed upon my family.

Schools are changing their lunch menus to a very specifi c set of standards that are set based on age and grade level. They’re limiting the amount of meat that is served and increasing the amount of fruits and vegetables. In theory, this sounds like a wonderful idea- “make” our students eat healthy meals and not poor meals. In truth though, this theory is a bit like communism, it might sound good on pa-per, but it doesn’t work that way in real life.

As my daughter quick-ly approaches her second birthday, I’m realizing very quickly how close we are to the school years of her life. Personally, I do NOT want some person at the Capital telling my daughter what she can and cannot eat. Why would I have a problem with her eating healthy food? I don’t, but mandating cer-tain portions is beyond my tolerance.

My senior year of high school was a very active year for me. I took two se-mesters of weight lifting, ran track, worked, and had several other things on my plate. I was constantly ‘go-ing’. My lunch break was just after my weight lifting class, and after burning all those calories, I was al-ways ready to chow down. I bought two lunches a day because one lunch simply wasn’t enough to keep me from feeling hungry- and for good reason, I burned hundreds of calories in a day!

The point of that expla-nation was that one ‘gov-ernment proportioned’ meal, may fi t perfectly for Johnny, but what about Billy who has football practice after school? And sure, some kids can do what I did and buy a second lunch. But what about the kids that can’t afford a second lunch? What if they issue some other crazy mandate that says second lunches are out of the question? I shudder to think that my daughter might have an active school lifestyle and

have to go hungry because she isn’t offered all the sustenance she needs.

I agree with the gov-ernment offi cials that we see way too many obe-sity cases in children (and adults) these days, but obesity doesn’t start in the one meal that students eat at school. Obesity starts outside of school- at home, out at restaurants, at the movies, etc. This isn’t to say that parents with obese children are bad parents. Honestly, in today’s world, it’s hard to eat something that’s under 300 calories. Not to mention, the cost of healthy eating can be out of reach for many low and middle class Ameri-cans. Why pay six dollars for a salad when you can get a burger for $.99? Also considering that the burger will keep you feeling full for longer due to the pro-tein in it, which the body breaks down more slowly than that of carbohydrates.

As a working mom, I know from experience how diffi cult it can be to get up and cook a healthy meal after a long day at work. Some days, I can accom-plish making a great meal, and other days, my behind stays glued to the couch. It’s very easy to pop open a bag of chips and eat away, but I can usually feel the effects of eating like that the next day- I’m sluggish, exhausted, and even irri-table at times (which then can lead to another ‘I don’t feel like cooking tonight’ night). Both my daughter and I are addicted to Gold-fi sh- they’re small enough for her to eat, and salty enough for me to love. Downside? I can eat al-most an entire bag single-handed.

The entire point that I would like to make is this: federal mandates on what our children should eat at lunch is stepping over the line. As parents, we should decide what our children should or should not eat and if we are not sure about what foods are healthy, it is our job to become edu-cated on the fact so that we can provide a healthy lifestyle for our children. It’s not easy, but it’s even less easy to comfort a child that is being bullied about her weight or to be told by a doctor that your child is diabetic due to poor diet. Don’t let someone else tell you what’s best for your child- in the end, both yourself and your child will be unhappy.

With Sincere Appreciation!

Thanks to all who helped at the scene of Matthew Scoggin’s 4-Wheeler accident. Thanks to all family and friends for all your support at the hospital and to all others for your prayers, phone calls and concerns.

Fair was sure out of luck as far as the weather was concerned and the fair had to be called of Sat-urday when the rain be-gan again. A very heavy downpour on Friday night put the water out around bridges south and west of Monticello and over the road just at the

foot of the hill at the fair-grounds. The water kept coming until on Monday and it was impassible to go even over the Mid-dle Fabius at the Smith bridge.

A reception was given at Ten Mile Church Sept. 28, in honor of those of the community who are to be sent to the training camps this week. More than 200 people were in attendance. The boys who were honored on this occasion were Oscar Bash, Earl Lupton, Law-rence Peterson, Dolan Day, Eldridge Boyer, Lee Kolthoff and Everette Moore.

Ray Fisher assumed charge of the Ten Mile school last Monday. Earl Lupton began the school and had just taught a month when Uncle Sam called him and he left Wednesday with the other boys for Camp Funston.

The Monticello rep-resentatives at the St. Louis fair and those who got to shake the hand of President Grover Cleve-land and his fair bride are Judge B.R. Thompson, W.I.Cox and wife, T.S. Burnett, W.R. Ray, J.A. Wes and Jas. M. Miller. Judge Thompson reports the whole thing a grand success.

Monticello is on the advance. The street cross-ings of the kind that the Journal has been urging for the last three years, has at last become a thing of beauty and a joy for-ever and anyone can now cross the streets day or night with head up and in full assurance of faith. But in the way of public improvements Monticel-lo has just begun to take a step forward.

This photo of the Independence School South of Ewing was taken circa 1918. The children and teacher are unidentifi ed.

invites youth to discover nature with a youth goose hunt on Oct. 13 or Oct. 14 from sunrise until 1 p.m. at Wakonda State Park in Lewis County. Participants must be age 11 to 15, hunter education certifi ed and attend a mandatory clinic from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Oct. 12 at Wakonda.

The clinic will consist of information on goose management, regulations, hunting strategies, distance judging, safety and wing shooting practice. Shotguns and ammunition will be available for youths to use on the hunt. They are also encouraged to bring their own shotguns.

“This hunt gives kids a chance to take advantage of the early goose season Missouri has to offer,” said MDC Outdoor Skills Specialist Rob Garver. “With the large number of waterfowl that has been anticipated for this year, we are looking forward to this being a really successful hunt.”

The MDC’s Discover Nature - Hunting programs are an ongoing series of seminars designed to help both youths and adults learn the techniques, regula-tions and ethics involved with the state’s hunting activities.

Pre-registration is required and the workshop is limited to eight participants. For information or to pre-register call 660-785-2424, ext. 6507 or send an e-mail to [email protected] by October 10.

MU Greenley Research Center at Novelty will be hosting a Beef Cattle Artifi cial Insemination School on November 6, 7, and 8, 2012 from 5:00 pm to 10:00 p.m. each evening. Classroom instruction includes es-trous cycles, semen handling, insemination of the cow, and synchronization protocols.

The LaGrange Fire and Police Departments and the Canton Fire and Police Departments will have their annual softball game at the LaGrange Ballpark on Sat-urday, Oct. 6 at 10 a.m. The public is invited to watch community emergency personnel battle for bragging and trophy rights.

Drivers should be especially vigilant during evening and early dawn hours and begin to watch for deer. Deer behavior changes due to mating season, which may cause an increase in roadway crossings. Hunting and crop harvesting may result in these animals being in places they aren’t usually seen. Drivers are urged to remain alert.

From this... ...to this!

Things haven’t changed much

Jack White of LaGrange and his son, Jeff, were on the September 11, 2012 Honor Flight to visit Washington D.C. The trip allows veterans to see the war memorials dedicated to the veterans who fought in WWII and the Korean War. Jack White is a Ko-rean War veteran.

World War II divided Korea into a Commu-nist, northern half and an American-occupied southern half, divided at the 38th parallel. The Korean War (1950-1953) began when the North Korean Communist army crossed the 38th Parallel and invaded non-Commu-nist South Korea. As Kim Il-sung’s North Korean army, armed with Soviet tanks, quickly overran South Korea, the United States came to South Ko-rea’s aid.

Jack was 20 years old when he was called to service. He lived around Unionville, Mo., and had been working throughout the state with the REA bringing power to rural Missourians. He reported on Nov. 10, 1952 and was sent to Camp Crowder in southwest Missouri and stay there until Thanks-giving. He was then sent to Camp Pope in Louisi-ana for 16 weeks of basic training.

He was then sent to Ja-pan at the Mt. Fuji north camp for advanced train-ing. In June they fl ew to Korea and landed in Pu-san and were bussed to the front line as far as they could go and then walked the rest of the way, mov-ing during the night.

Arriving at the front, they were instructed to dig trenched in the DMZ. The Korean Demilitarized Zone is a strip of land run-ning across the Korean Peninsula that serves as a buffer zone between North and South Korea which runs along the 38th paral-lel. White says they were all digging and the guys were complaining about

BY RITA COX

[email protected]

how hard the dirt was, but where he was digging in the dirt was pretty soft which was good until he realized he had dug into an old grave and sound found the occupant of that grave. Needless to say he soon found another spot to dig in. After they had dug in, the Koreans decided they were too close and de-manded they move back. He recalls they were under constant fi re and the heat was excessive.

White moved on to In-chon with the 96th Quar-termaster where they were having the Korean and Chinese prisoner ex-change. The prisoners re-ceived a change of clothes and were deloused and then taken to Panmunjom. There were over 4,000 prisoners. His company moved around South Ko-rean, a lot of times just guarding empty prison camps. He remained in Korea until October 1954. White was with Division 24th, 34th Regiment C Company, 1st Battalion.

Returning to the states to Fort Carson in Colorado, when he service ended he went back to Unionville, moved to Kirksville, then to Columbia and back to Kirksville again where he worked with heavy equip-

ment and a relative told him about a job in West Quin-cy, working at the restau-rant at the train depot. He met his wife, Carolyn, they moved to LaGrange, and raised their family. Jack was involved in scouts, served on the city council and was the city judge. He worked at Kanpheide and retired from that company.

His wife died on May 22, 1993, one day short of their 29th wedding anniversary. He then moved to Montana for several years and re-turned to LaGrange where he now resides.

He signed up for the Honor Flight in April. The September trip was the second fl ight on which Korean veterans were al-

lowed to attend. His son, Jeff, accompanied him as his guardian. Jeff has been employed by Knapheide Manf. For over 18 years. After he told his company he was going on the Honor Flight with his father, the next day at work he was surprised to learn that the Kanpheide Company had paid his way for the

trip. Veterans are invited on the trip at no cost, each one has to have a compan-ion or guardian along with them, usually a relative or caretaker, and the guardian is required to pay for their portion of the trip. If a per-son doesn’t have a particu-lar guardian to accompany them, there are several peo-ple who volunteer and are honored to be the guardian for the day.

The Honor Flight trip be-gan at John Wood Commu-nity College, after a pro-vided breakfast, the group was bussed to St. Louis where they fl ew to Balti-more. At the Baltimore air-port they were greeted and cheered by well wishers. Jack said everywhere they went people would come up to them and thanked them for their service. He said he shook so many hands that his were swollen and sore for several days after he returned home.

This Honor Flight hap-pened on Sept. 11, so there was heightened security at the sites they visited. They did see a Presidential mo-torcade, as the President was speaking at the Pen-tagon. The group toured the Korean Memorial, WWII Memorial, Viet-nam Memorial,, Lincoln Memorial and all the other many sights in Washing-ton, D.C. They also went to Arlington Cemetery and witnessed the changing of the guard. The group was ahead of schedule so they bus driver gave them an extra tour of the city.

Returning home, his son Jackie had driven to St. Louis with some other motorcyclists to escort the bus back home, They were met by over 200 motorcy-cles near Bowling Green, along with police cars and were escorted to Hannibal, which was a memorable sight.

Jack and Jeff White en-courage anyone who is eligible to sign up for the Honor Flight. It is an ex-perience they will never forget.

Medicare enrollment period to begin

Lewis County Memorial Auxiliary Unit 578

The Lewis County Memorial Post and Auxiliary Unit 578 met Sept. 10, in the Lewistown American Legion Hall. The evening began with a supper followed by a program.

Two Highland High School students, Kimber Boyer and Chris Sparks, gave the program on Missouri Girls State and Missouri Boys State. They expressed appre-ciation for being sponsored as delegates. Their prepared remarks and answers to questions from the audience, in-cluded their participation in the governmental portions of the weeklong activities as well as other fun, learning opportunities. Post and Auxiliary 578 would also like to thank the Rick and Tena Jones Family for sponsoring one girl and one boy to Girls State and Boys State this year.

Following the program, the Post and Auxiliary held their business meetings. Norma Earlywine, First Vice-President, presided at the Auxiliary meeting.

Evelyn Ewalt, Knox City Unit 358 President, was welcomed as a guest. Since one of the Lewis County delegates could not attend Girls State and there was no alternate from that county, the Lewistown and Knox City Auxiliaries had worked together on sponsorship of another student to Missouri Girls State. The Knox City Missouri Girls State Delegate/Alternate and their fami-lies had been invited to attend the Lewistown meeting.However, they were not able to attend.

The Auxiliary Unit 578’s annual soup luncheon will be held on Tuesday, October 16, 2012 from 11 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. at the Lewistown American Legion Hall. Members in attendance volunteered to give food and monetary donations. Other members will be contacted concerning their donations. This is the women’s main fundraiser.

The next meeting of Post and Auxiliary Unit 578 will be October 8, beginning with a 6:30 p.m. carry-in sup-per at the Lewistown American Legion Hall.

NEWS

October 15 through December 7, 2012, is the Annual Enrollment Period when senior citizens can change their Medicare Advantage plan for 2013.

As in previous years, seniors have a choice of staying with traditional Medi-care coverage, with or without a supple-mental plan, or opting for a Medicare Ad-vantage plan.

Through Medicare Advantage plans, the federal government shares the respon-sibility of providing Medicare benefi ts with state-licensed private companies. Companies selling Medicare Advantage plans have a contract with the federal government to provide benefi ciaries with

all their Medicare benefi ts, plus any ad-ditional benefi ts the company chooses to provide.

Most hospitals treat all traditional Medicare patients, but are not required to accept all Medicare Advantage plans. With dozens of Medicare Advantage plans in the marketplace, many hospitals choose to limit the number of plans they accept.

Blessing Health System providers ac-cept traditional Medicare, Medicare sup-plements, and will accept the following Medicare Advantage plans beginning in January 2013.
