888-587-8189 330-464-9980
Our Dad, Del Hall, proudly served in WWII in the Pacific in-cluding the Battle of Midway. His home for those years was on a small destroyer, often referred to as a Tin Can. He was also in one of the early groups that occupied Japan following the end of the war. Yet once again he was called upon during the Korean War. He again proudly served in that conflict, on a de-stroyer, providing needed support for our troops on the ground.
With special love and thanks from all of us Dad...

MEDICALLY SUPERVISED WEIGHT LOSS50 E. Washington Street, Suite D-4 • Medina
If you need to lose more than 20 pounds, your health conditions may require medically supervised weight loss. Last Diet Ever offers the most comprehensive line of extreme weight loss protocols:
• Prescription HCG Therapy
• Vitamin Injections
Limited time offer: Purchase 3 weeks of prescription HCG Therapy and get the 4th week FREE
Joe, a fi refi ghter, struggled with his weight over the years, but after having experiencing an injury while on the job caused his weight to spiral up even more. In order for him to return to work after rehab, he needed to face his weight situation. He started out at a little over 300 lbs. and being a fi refi ghter has to maintain certain agility requirements in order to keep his position. Reality was, with the weight gains, he was facing a possible job change. He learned about Last Diet Ever in the Sandusky area and with the guidance from the staff was able to get his health and life back on track. That was in 2010! Today, he continues to maintain around 200 and being 5’ 11” is a good weight for him.
Call 330-721-1422or visit www.LastDietEver.com for more details.

Panel pushes mayor pay hikeWOOSTER — The inaugural Com-
pensation Committee met Tuesday and reached a consensus agreement on its planned salary increase for the office of mayor.
The nine-member volunteer body approved a measure to ultimately increase the salary for the position of city mayor (elected every four years) from $54,000 annually to $67,000.
The committee decided the best way to accomplish this is to “step” the sal-ary up first beginning Jan. 1, 2016 — when the next four-year mayoral term is set to begin — to $60,500.
Then commencing Jan. 1, 2018, the
mayor serving the next term would see the salary increase to $67,000.
Any recommendations to arise out of the committee only go into effect pending approval by city council.
Members of the committee reviewed and considered several factors during their three meetings so far, including salaries of comparable cities’ mayors, median salaries in Wooster, cost of liv-ing increases and “big picture” con-siderations such as compelling other potential office-seekers to come for-ward and where voters and citizens would feel comfortable.
Frank Rasmussen, who is serving as chairman of this committee, started the
Mayoral salariesThe following data regarding mayoral salaries
from comparable cities was requested by members of the Compensation Committee and used to make their first recommendation Tuesday to increase Wooster’s mayoral salary from $54,000 per year.

COLUMBUS — Gun groups urged lawmakers Wednesday to lift prohibitions in state law from carrying concealed fire-arms on college campuses, into churches and at other locations.
They told members of the Ohio House’s State Govern-ment Committee such areas can become targets for criminals, knowing law-abiding citizens won’t be armed.
