New Deal reviews insurance, increases water deposits By Scott Lure The New Deal City Council was not pleased with insurance premium increases from Becton Insurance Agency for two insurance policies the city has . During Monday night's regular meeting, the council reviewed one premium increase on a general liability policy for the volunteer depart- ment based on department hours. New Deal Mayor Terry Martin said Becton doesn't know if the hours are for lighting fire s, working on trucks, during meetings or other related duties. "They don't know anything, but they want to take our money," Martin said. Martin went on to say that Becton would inform the council about a definition of the hours at a later date. The council also reviewed a premium increase from $621 for three years to $285 for one year for an employee blanket dishonesty bond. "They figure something cheap so we'll get the insurance then they come in here and change," Martin said.

Councilman C.L. "Red" Phillips seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously, 4-0. Water/Sewer Dept. The council discussed raising water deposits. Shropshire, Phillips and Martin agreed that an increase might serve as an additional hardship on families moving into the area when added to other deposits required from various utilities and landlords. . "People can't afford it but we can't either," Marlin said. The city is owed over $500 from a list of approximately 15 rentors that have left the com- munity owing money to the city for water usage. The council continued discussion on passing an ordinance requiring rentors that have not paid their past due amount by lOth of month have se rvice terminated.

Productivity, risk of heart levels vary with stress ByJudyLuce "Productivity decreases 25 percent" when under stress, said Dr. Richard Fowler Saturday night in a stress related seminar sponsored by Women's Division Chamber of Commerce. Fowler said that many busi- neSses want their employees to be under ' some stress when in reality stress decreases produc- tivity. Owners of businesses believe stress equals loyality. Dealing with stress He gave eight points that a person can follow in order to have victory over anxiety. 1) Put a price tag on the events that trigger stress. Don't put yourself under stress when things aren't that important. 2) Remove aU-or-nothing thinking. Learn to think of creative alternatives to a solu- tion and change the belief that there is only one way to do lhings. Profectionists tend to have lhis problem. They can't be satisfied with making a 92 in a class, it always has to be an A+ . 3) See the plusses and the minuses through the same glas- ses. Do not look at tho,-minuscs through binoculars and the plusses with lhe binoculars turned around, making it appear less significant. Look for what went right today rather than what went . wrong. See the positives rather than the negatives. 4) Be realistic. Fowler uses a 20-60-20 ratio. He said about 20 percent of the are going to hate what you do, 20 are going to love it and 60 percent are going to be realistic and see it for how it really is. Dr. Richard Fowler Of any given job one might hold or wish to obtain, 20 percent of the job that per-son will dislike or not be able to accomplish, 20 percent will fall into place and 60 percent will be earned. That leaves an 80 percent chance for success. 5) See life in smaller pack- ages. Ralher than a project being too big to conquer, break it up into smaller parts .and the job will be less stressful. Look at the entire picture to set a goal and then break it into parts and decide bow to achieve that goal. 6) Learn to relax. Fowler by his 90 percent philo- sophy of life. He believes that if he functions at 90 percent of what a perfectionist would, he will be under less stress. He advises that when guests come to visit, don't make the bed but close the bedroom door. 7) Utilize the spiritual dimen- sion. According to Fowler, research indicates there is a 40 percent decrease in heart at- tacks if people go to church once a week. 8) Exercise. This tends to release tension brought on by stress. "When you're under a whole ·• lot of stress you can't remember all this stuff," commented one person in the audience. Fowler said that it has to be practiced, gone over and over again until it becomes routine. He likened it to learning to fly a plane, a pilot can't solo until he can do the maneuvers "in his sleep". Identifying Stress Fowler listed eleven symptoms that are often caused by stress. 1) Tense muscles are like a red light going off on your car's dash board. It should-1EIT' you something is wrong. 2) Cold hands is an indication, that blood has left the ex- tremities which happens when a person is under stress. 3) Headaches can be caused by tension brought on by stress. Perfectionists often set miraine headaches when they fee they are not in control of a situa- tion. 4) Insomnia, the sleep, can be a sign of 5) Vacillation, the inability to make decisions or someone who rides the fence, is another indication of stress. If this is a change from prior behavior, you need to why. ' 6) Fatigue thlie is not brought on by physical exertion can mean stress.

Fowler said there arc three levels of problems which stress may cause. They arc burnout, neurosis and psychosis. He said that str ess ca n lead to burnout, a dead end feeling, and a reversal of personal values. Burnout can . ca use de- pression, withdrawal where loved ones may become enemies, loss of rational thinking and a negative life script.

The story rcvnlvcs around an old fisherman who for H4 tl:iys ha' not caught ~• :\ingk: fi sh. It is. a Jisgran: for a lishcrman to go ."in lnng wi th · out ca tching anything and it dPL·s not look like the man can make a living anymore at his Jge . Uut t.:vl·ry morning ht: goes UIJI in hi s hoat and every evening he rt:turns wit h

methooist <Church nothing to _, how for hi ' efforts. On the 85th day he rows out as usua L Ahout noon, a gianl

fish takes his line and begins to pull the old n1<1n and his hoat farther out to sea. He has a choice; he can cui I he line and make it safely back to shore QR he can take the r! sk of landing the fish and riding it oul. Hv decides to mlc 11 ~ul. The fishing line cuts into his hands; he i' tired lrom the h~hl with the fish; he can only cat and dnnk on occa"on, he cannot let the fishing line go or the fi sh will csrapc . All night the fish pulls the \:)()at as th e old man holds onto the line.

Early the next morning, the fish jumps out of the W<tler an d the old man knows he has hooked I he hi~est fi sh lw has ever seen. By the morning of the third day, the li sh is getting tired, so the old man begins to pull in lhe line. Finally, he has it alongside the boat. Since the fiSh ts two fee t long~r than the boat, the old man ties it on the side and puts .up hiS old patched sails to gel back to shore. No fish so b1g has ever been caught. The old man will have plenl y of money after he sells it , and also the admiration of the nlher fisher ­men.

As he sails toward home, sharks hegm to .ilt,tck the big fish. The old man makes a valiant fight - stnk1ng at them with his oars and his knife, but he cannot drive I hem away. By the time that he reaches the haruor, he has nothmg left but the skeleton of his great fish . It is lai c into the evemng when he arrives home. Exhausted from the struggle, he fall s into bed and sleeps heavily. When he awakes 1he next_ morn­ing, he feels depressed and frustrated . He had t.he h•g fi sh­all that he needed - and he could no t bnng 11 m. He goes down to the dock and the other fisherm e n have gathered around his boat, looking at the skelton of the big fish. Sud­denly the old man knows thai neithe r the fi sh nor the sea h•!s beaten him. He regains his confidence and gets hack mto hts boat to try again.

How hke our spiritual life this story is1 We go for long periods . when our spiritual life does not sec!n to gr_ow · yet we keep learning and trying. Then we find somethmg grca l which will turn everything around . A rcv1val; a renewal; a reawakening. It is all that we imagined and even mo~c. O~r spiritual life will never be the same. Only we lost ~L It ts eaten by other desires or ambitions and we are left With only the skeleton. How disappointing! Yet we have not been con ­quered; Christ is still with us. We can regain our confidence and try again.

We can admire the old man because he was not defeated. Let us apply this principle to our spiritual life and not let tl be defeated either. Let us .vrite a masterpiece for our soul.

IF THINGS GO WRONG, HAVE A TALK WITH YOUR CLERGYMAN You have just had a terrible week. First, you

received bad news about something. Then, as if that weren't enough, you acted on impulse

and made some foolish statements that let • certain people down and almost cost you a

friendship of long standing. Altogether, you couldn't feel more depressed and your seJf.

esteem has never been lower. Of course, you try to make amends with those people who~ you inadvertently injured by your unwise re-

marks. Actually, none of this may describe '' your problems; but whatever they arc . go to your House of Worship and talk to your cler­gyman. He will give you his best advice, for

he is there to help people like you who arc in some kind of trouble. And remember to

thank God for this guidance He has provided for you, just when you needed it most .

EMS no long~r 'Scoop N Haul', class may be· offered locally Physicians. today~~= specialized in one

field or &JJother. Due to an overload or patients, legal barriers

and costs it is very diffic:ult to make house calls as it was in the days which have passed.

The action taken in the fii'St minutes will have a major reOection on a person's outcome after suffering a medical emergency.

· EMS (emergency medical service) began, by mocking the medics in time of war, some twenty years ago.

Getting a patient to the Emergency Department in the quickest way possible, dressing wounds and administering a little oxygen is basically what was offered in the days of "Scoop N Haul".

EMS has become very sophistical«; today. Intense training, continuing educttion require­

ments, recertification and 'Delegated Practice' of the emergency physicians can bring professional

help to you. This results in the system saving thousands of lives by entering the sce.ne.

Calling EMS is not enough. After activating the S)'Stem, one must answer •

important questions and gwe pertinent information. Sometimes, the bystander must become involved

with patient care. . When 9-1-1-E becomes available in Abernathy in

August, a trained Emer~ency Medical Dispatcher '(EMD) may give speaal instructions prior to arrival-of EMS.

This is a special 'enhanced' feature in the sys­tem Abernathy chose.

A citizen of Abernathy has already benefited from this and is living to tell his story of EMS response.

One recent afternoon, Connie Beck, of Aber­nathy, answered a 9-1-1 call from a cellular tele­phone. Beck is an EMD in Lubbock.

The caller said he was in Abernathy and his

passen~er had become unconac:ioua and was not breathing.

While another ·dispatcher notified Abernathy EMS, Beck gave pre-arrival instrllctions to the caller.

The victim wa5 later transported with a minimal deficit. In this case, seconds made the difference at the scene. •

What action would you take if someone close to you suffered a medical emergency? Would your choice be ri~t? Is what you learned a few years ago in first aid accepted today?

Probably not. Training as an Emergency Medical Technician

(EMT) could erase a huge, dark area of question in most medical emergencies. ·

The course which could be offered in Abernathy is honored by nation-wide recognition.

There were 1,463 EMS courses taught in Texas last year. However, there are only four programs

THIS IS THE ACTUAL SIZE

which have earned aatioDal ac:crcditatioD. Accreditation is ~ by eamination or

National Registry or EMT, Amcriclll Medieal N­sociation, Ainerican College or Emerp:ncy Physi­cians, American Society of ADcatheaiolc)gists, American College or Surpoas, National AuociatioD of EMT, UTHSC San Antonio, SMC Dallas, ACC Austin and 1TU-HSC Lubbock.

I have been a Texas Department of Health (TDH) instructor over three yean for Texas Tech and our students seem to eoasiatently teat at the top of TDH State Board Exams.

You can become one of 10, 185 ECAs, 20,553 EMTs, 1,921 Intermediates or 5,671 Paramedics registered in Texas.

Contact me at 298-4235 or P.O. Box 310, Aber­nathy 79311 for application information.

It may be a few years before another class will be offered this close to Abernathy.

EMS is on the move for you!
