Authorities found a missing county resident after a daylong search on Tuesday, August 2.

According to a press release from the Haywood County Sheriff’s Department, authorities received a call to 511 Albright Road in Stanton at approximately 10:57 a.m., concerning a missing person.

Family members at the scene confi rmed that the missing person was Raymond Johnson, 76.

Johnson had walked off from his residence.

They believed that he was in a wooded area near his residence.

Johnson’s wife, Ocola, advised authorities that he has Alzheimer’s and has walked away from residence before, yet this time family members could not fi nd him.

The Haywood County Sheriff’s Department, Rescue Squad and Emergency

Management Agency conducted a search of the area. The Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Department also assisted with bloodhounds used for tracking.

The Jackson Police Department Aviation Unit also assisted with the search via a helicopter.

The search for Johnson went on for approximately 12 hours.

It was around 11 p.m. when authorities fi nally caught a lead in fi nding Johnson.

The Jackson Police Aviation Unit reported seeing a subject in a heavily thicketed area behind Johnson’s residence.

Members of the sheriff’s department and Rescue Squad searched the area by foot and located Johnson one hundred and twenty yards behind his residence.

A path was cleared out for an ambulance while the helicopter continued to circle around the area and provide illuminating support.

Because of the thickness of the woods in the area, Johnson was carefully carried out by hand on a backboard to the ambulance by rescue squad, sheriff’s department members and ambulance authority.

Johnson was then transported to Jackson Madison County General Hospital.

While these men and women spent countless hours in the sweltering summer heat, their selfl ess efforts resulted in perhaps saving a life that could have been lost.

The Haywood County Budget Committee met earlier this week in the Haywood County Courthouse in the hopes of fi nally producing a working budget for the fi scal 2011-2012 year.Initially, the committee aimed to fi nish the budget by August 12, but with worries of an approximate 1.4 million defi cit without a tax increase, fi nishing by next Friday may not happen.And the fi scal year is already underway.During a committee meeting that took place Monday, August 1 at 5 p.m., the committee met with Sheriff Melvin Bond to discuss his budgets for the jail and sheriff’s department.Staffi ng has served as a number one issue for the jail, with numerous experts coming into the jail for mock inspections


While August 2 produced another smoldering summer evening, this didn’t stop the Eastside Arena from fi lling up with people.

Brownsville’s annual National Night Out produced a strong crowd, despite the heat. The event did feature various ways of keeping cool in the form of paper and electric fans, lemonade, popsicles and of course coolers of ice cold water.

These methods were probably the best method to beat the heat, unless of course you were “victim” for the dunk tank.

Although presented annually in Haywood County, National Night Out has ran for a number of years across the state thanks to the National Association of Town Watch (NATW), a nonprofi t crime prevention organization, since 1984.

Last year, the event included participation from approximately 37 million people in 15, 110 communities throughout the country.

With the large numbers of vendors, attendees had plenty to keep themselves occupied. And that’s not even counting the entertainment.

This year’s entertainment featured performances from David Smith the Singing Fireman, Diverse 5, Brother Eddie Martin From Christ Church, Keshuan Shepard as Michael Jackson, and special Zumba class.

Relay For Life Honorary Co-Chairs Audrey Blue and John Simmons were also honored at the event, following Relay For Life’s cancellation.

While there was plenty of fun, the event’s main message of taking a stand against crime and drugs was not lost.

“Let’s show all those that are committing crimes against us that this stops,” Brownsville Police Chief Chris Lea said.

With the Tomcat football fi eld full of residents and parents, it’s probably no surprise that the community is indeed ready for some football action.

The community came out in full supportive force last Friday, July 29 for the fi rst ever Tomcat Meet and Greet. Clouds may have decorated the county with rain earlier that day, but by the time the event kicked off at 6:30 p.m., the sky had nearly cleared. And despite the heat, the seats had fi lled with some eager supporters.

“Are we ready for some Tomcat and

Warrior football?” recently appointed Haywood County Schools Athletic Director Drayton Hawkins asked the crowd.

“Yeah!” the crowd answered back with a clamoring applause.

Attendees literally got the chance to shake

hands, and place faces with numbers of high school and junior high players as everyone briefl y met on the fi eld.

Shortly afterwards, everyone returned to the stands and listened to a few key speakers from both the schools and the Committee

to Commemorate 100 Years Of Tomcat Football.

The event concluded with members of the high school and junior high cheerleaders and players being introduced to the crowd.

Much effort has

The Annual Ken/Ten Truck and Tractor Show once again pulled into Brownsville Saturday July 23.

Residents could be found crowded into the vacant fi eld next to Pictsweet as various modded trucks and tractors ferociously revved and raced for a quickest time and the greatest glory.

And any worries of a low turnout due to the heat only needed to look to rows of park cars to negate any concerns.

This year’s event featured nine categories with approximately 47 competitors.

Top winners were Jody Womble driving Wampuscar in the 7000 Super Stock with a distance of 299.13, Jake Hinson driving Farmers Daughter in the Hot Farm with a distance of 318.00, Jacob Wooley driving Foolish Pleasure in the Pro Street 4WD with a distance of 324.58, Randall Miller driving Hillbilly Hustler in the Pro-Stock 4WD with a distance of 310.47, Tom Simmerman driving I Think I Can in the Pro-Stock with a distance of 279.03, Will Scruggs in the Pro Stock Diesel with a distance of 299.41, Kenny Wiggins driving Hemi Hauler in the Open 4WD with a distance of 300.53, Ricky Wilson driving Red Rooster in the 9300 Super Farm with a distance of 325, and Chris Hill driving Special Delivery in the Open 2WD with a distance of 314.87.

The next major competition will take place August 12 in Lebanon, Tennessee. Classes competing will be Open 4WD, Open 2WD, Super Farm, 7000 Super Stock and Hot Farm.

Haywood County Mayor Franklin Smith and Brownsville Mayor Jo Matherne honored the fi rst Haywood County recipients of the STEP scholarship from the Regional Economic Development Initiative REDI program.

The REDI program, a 14-county initiative

meant to help to prepare areas for job workforce readiness, has offered a special last dollar scholarship, along with the city and county, for students that want to go to a two-year community college or technical center.

Students had a number of requirements

however, including participation in a mentoring program.

The students are as follows Brittney Kinnon, Brittney Floyd, Matthew Martin, Rachel Wooley, Yolanda Powell, Kirk Hilliard, Logan Eubanks, Karina Pulido, Sharnyce Taylor.

Haywood & Tipton County consumers can take advantage of a state sales tax holiday from August 5 through 7 and save hard-earned dollars on school supplies, computers and clothing.

During the sales tax holiday, retailers statewide will not charge sales taxes for designated goods. Eligible purchases include clothing and school supplies priced $100 or less for each item. Computers priced at $1,500 or less are also exempt from sales taxes. The measure applies only to retail sales to private individuals,

and excludes supplies for business purchases.

“This sales tax holiday benefi ts consumers because they can purchase necessary items for school or work and stay within their budgets. In addition, retailers see their bottom line increase along with store traffi c, which will boost the economy,” Naifeh said.

In addition to cash and credit card purchases, shoppers can use discount coupons or loyalty cards for eligible items without paying sales tax. Exchanges of merchandise are also allowed, but the original

item must be replaced for the same item in another size or color.

Qualifi ed goods may also be placed on or picked up from layaway tax-free during the moratorium. Rain checks, mail orders, and internet and telephone orders are tax-exempt, provided the consumer orders and pays for the merchandise during the sales tax holiday period.

“Most tax-free items are targeted to school-age youngsters. Appropriate clothing for girls and boys, and such supplies as binders, book bags, calculators, cellophane tape, compasses,

crayons, folders, glue, index card boxes, markers and notebooks are on the list of eligible goods,” said Naifeh.

Working adults also could benefi t from this law. Some other tax-exempt items are:

Chef uniforms;1. Choir and altar clothing;2. Clerical vestments;3. Lab coats;4. Costumes;5. Dress gloves and shoes;6. Formal clothing;7. Golf clothing;8. Bridal gowns and veils;9. Neckwear; and, 10. Overshoes.11.

“Computers with

preloaded software under $1,500 are tax-free, but most computer accessories will still be taxed. These taxed items include software purchased separately, storage media, diskettes, printer ink and paper, and personal digital assistants,” Naifeh said.

More information about the sales tax holiday can be accessed online at www.Tennessee.gov/revenue, or by e-mail at [email protected]. The telephone number for the state Department of Revenue is 1-800-342-1003, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST.

or studies.The one thing that has

been agreed upon by these experts is that the jail needs more personnel. The number however is where everyone differs.

Sheriff Melvin Bond handed in another jail budget, saying that he needed a total of 31 employees or correctional offi cers.

“This is a number that we have looked at and feel that if TCI challenged us with it…it would give me arguments against any issues they bring up,” Bond said.

Bond added that even with 31 on staff, he couldn’t guarantee that this would make the jail certifi ed.

Twenty one are currently staffed at the jail, and with the addition of ten, this would have cost the county approximately an additional $300,000.

“I don’t know how to

fund this,” Commissioner Robert Green said. “We wanted the biggest and the best. Well we got it. And now we have to pay for it.”

With the budget already signifi cantly out of wack, committee members were struggling to see how the county could afford ten additional employees for the jail.

‘If you give me one, six, or nine employees, that’s what I will have to use,” Bond said. “But you asked me what I need and that’s what I need.”

During a second meeting this week, the committee made a three to two motion to include half of what the sheriff requested as far as personnel, bringing the expected number to 26.

Following the end of Monday’s meeting, committee members appeared frustrated at the progress of the budget, as

well as the potential for a signifi cant increase on the property tax.

The committee had already talked about doing a 20-cent property tax increase to fund the new debt. Following this week’s meetings, the committee talked about the prospect of an additional increase of 30 to 40 cents. This could bring it to a total of 55 to 60 cents total just in order to avoid a budget defi cit.

A Tuesday budget meeting also resulted in various cuts to contributions to non –profi t organizations, the sheriff’s department, and the Haywood County Ambulance Authority.

The committee will determine just how much of an effect these cuts will have on their progress with the new budget, and whether the defi cit has shrunk signifi cantly as a result.

been placed into the athletics of Haywood County, including Tomcat football.

Support quickly began rallying after the hiring of new Head Tomcat Football Coach Slade Calhoun.

Much emphasis on this season is being placed on both the Tomcats and Warriors this year, due to Haywood County being able to celebrate 100 years of high school football.

The Tomcats’ fi rst game against JCM on Friday August 19 at 7:30 p.m. is expected to become one of the biggest attended games.

Anyone that has ever had the pleasure of handling the pigskin, cheering or marching on the fi eld—players, cheerleaders and band members—will be honored.

And while the Tomcats and Warriors ready for

the upcoming season, attendees were reminded that constant support will be key factor this season.

“It’s easy to be behind them when they’re winning. It’s easy because it’s fun,” Greg Vanstory said. “But let’s be there for them when they really need us. Let’s be there during the hard times.”

Cowboys & AliensStar Rating:

Well, my seven-year-old daughter, Grace, has a new role model, a sophisticated woman of the world, it turns out, to emulate. Her new heroine is an older woman, of course, sixteen years old, to be exact. (18 in later editions) Her name is Drew, Nancy Drew.

I discovered this the other morning about 6 a.m. I had gotten up and gone into the girls’ bedroom to make sure they were all breathing (do parents ever stop doing that?) when I noticed the shade at one of the windows was pulled away from the window next to the bed to allow the early morning light to spill over the head of the bed where Grace and Margaret sleep, and then I saw why — there was Grace, snuggled safely underneath the cover with nothing but her head and hands sticking out, her face in a book, The Hidden Staircase. She had almost finished it.

Frequently when I get up, I find her in the living room reading something or other, but Nancy Drew books, she later confided, are “a little bit scary”, so on that particular morning, she had opted for the safety of having her two younger sisters in the room with her.

The Hidden Staircase is the second of the 175 Nancy Drew Mystery Stories series, one of only two we own (both old editions) at this time, the other being The Secret of the Wooden Lady, #25, which she finished three days later.

“I want to read the first one,” she said. “It’s called The Secret of the Old Clock. Can we go to the library to get it?”

Now, no parent should ever refuse a child’s request to go to the library, so we did, and we found it and picked up another in the series for good measure, but the following night she came into our bedroom

at 4 a.m., the victim of a bad dream. One of Nancy’s villains, it seems, had escaped from the pages of the book and was lurking somewhere in the shadows of her imagination.

“O.K. That’s no big problem,” I say. “When I was in the second grade, I had a nightmare after watching the Bud Abbott/Lou Costello movie, Jack and the Beanstalk.”

But then it happened again the following night.

“What are we going to do about this?” I asked Grace the next morning.

“I’m not going to read Nancy Drew books any more except in the mornings,” she said, and amazingly, that seems to have solved the problem.

But she is definitely hooked on Nancy Drew, and what young girl wouldn’t be? Nancy, although only 18, has it all. She’s confident, competent, strong, courageous, intelligent and bold. And in addition to her physical courage and adventurous spirit, she is also wholesomely feminine — poised, gracious, stylish and kind. Her manners are impeccable.

Although she has a boyfriend, he assists, rather than rescues, her in her adventures. She can change a tire and fix a faulty carburetor on her own, she is a gourmet quality cook, and she sews, rides horseback, dances and plays sports. She paints and can drive a motorboat. She is a crack shot, an excellent swimmer and a great bridge player. Furthermore, and this is the part I like best — she is a loving and thoughtful daughter to her widowed attorney father.

Also, she is pretty and stylish and wears fabulous clothes, not to mention that she drives and owns a sporty blue roadster.

Sophisticated, loving

and glamorous, she is the embodiment of the stereotypical all-American girl. Grace may not know exactly what all that means yet, but she recognizes it when she sees it on the pages of her books.

“I want to be a mystery solver like Nancy Drew,” she told me last night, and she’s not the first little girl to have such a dream. Supreme Court justices Sandra Day O’Connor, Ruth Bader Ginsberg and Sonia Sotomayor, former first ladies Laura Bush and Hillary Clinton, along with hundreds of famous women and hundreds of thousands of not so famous ones, have spoken of Nancy Drew’s positive influence on their formative years.

But Nancy also has her critics. (Doesn’t everyone these days?) Because she is well to do, attractive and amazingly talented, some critics have blasted the “appeal of her high class advantages.” One said that with her teas and fancy cakes, the quaint restaurants in which she often dines, her old-fashioned picnics in the woods, her precious jewels and heirlooms, she comes across as an upper-class WASP defender of a “fading aristocracy threatened by the restless lower classes.” She is only able to be the perfect young woman, another complains, because of the advantages her small town, middle class lifestyle her father has provided for her.

Sounds great to me.So read on, young

Grace. Read on and dream of never-ending adventures, and all the mighty things a girl can do and become in this world without giving up graciousness and glamour in the process.

Dream on, but please don’t wake your mother and me at 4 a.m. anymore.

Aren’t we all about ready to reach a concenses regarding the U.S. debt crisis and move on to other pressing issues?

While the U.S. Congress is taking steps to remove the life supports, we will still be in critical care burdened down with an awesome debt.

Although not an economist or an economic expert, I am somewhat familiar with experiences regarding debt on a much smaller scale of course.

Those of us who grew up living below the poverty level can agree on the gains, but also the pains of being debt ridden.

My mother was able to do the laundry with a nice modern automatic washing machine by taking on debt. She made no complaints when she threw the old scrub board in the smoke house.

We all also celebrated the arrival of our first refrigerator. No longer did we have to depend on the ice man and a number three washtub covered with old discarded quilts and a tarpaulin.

I also remember the day we got our first television. Our mother told us on a particular morning that she would have a surprise for us

when we returned home in the afternoon. She was wrong! It was much more than surprise. We were actually shocked out of our shoes when we returned home that afternoon and were greeted by the likes of Howdy Doody, Buffalo Bob and Clarabelle, not to mention Annette Funicello and the Mouseketeers on our own TV set.

Thank the Lord. No more walking down the road to the first neighbors with a television set in the house.

Those were just some of the gains that we never could have experienced had we not gone in debt.

But our mother taught us a valuable lesson about going in debt. She would buy one item at a time and not get another until the debt was paid in full on the last item purchased.

In my experience, using debt unwisely has always brought on pain and hardship.

It only seems like yesterday when I purchased my first new car. It was one of the nicer automobiles of the day. I never could have bought the car without taking out a loan.

After completing all the paper work, the salesman handed me the keys. I was so proud of

that car. It was one more beautiful machine.

However, the honeymoon didn’t last long. Problems began to surface immediately with the purchase not necessarily with the car but with my pocketbook.

Consideration was given only to the monthly payment when considering my monthly budget. I didn’t consider the high cost of insurance on a new car with the primary driver being a male under 25. The monthly insurance premium alone was more than the payment on the car. There were also lub jobs, gasoline, tires and all types of other maintenance requirements.

Finally, after refinancing that prize several times, I realized that borrowing money to pay on the debt was only increasing the debt.

It took some time to work out of that financial mess, but there proved to be a light at the end of the tunnel.

I never purchased another vehicle from the showroom window. Just didn’t want to get in over my head.

I hope our government leaders can use such wisdom taught to us by our mom and get us out of this mess.

The Girl Sleuth

Borrowing! Not always a good thing

With all the crazy scenario movies coming out these days, why not make a movie about “Cowboys & Aliens”? We already have a movie out called The Warrior’s Way, which is about cowboys and ninjas. Apparently having a ridiculous amalgamation is a trend in movie plots recently. That being said, I obviously attended this movie with low expectations. The only thing that caught my attention was the cast of A-list actors (Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, Olivia Wilde, etc.) and the fact that it was directed by Jon Favreau, the director of both Iron

Man films.My optimism was

diminished, however, after an entire week of seeing the previews for the movie on almost every single commercial. It can almost be said that the more I saw the trailers the more i had insight into the story, an thus a spoiled experience.

Still I intend to give a solid, unbiased review and surprisingly this movie impressed me. What seems to be and incredibly outrageous combination turned out to be a very fitting fusion of elements. I’m not saying that this combo of cowboys and aliens is the best since

peanut butter and jelly, but it definitely works. If aliens could attack now, why not in the 1800s?

The story was well written but a tad predictable. The acting was genuine and the aliens presented a real threatening atmosphere. It was almost like watching 3:10 to Yuma with a little bit of Predators mixed in.

It was a very likable film and one I would recommend for just a casual movie night. It wasn’t the best Jon Favreau creation, but was well worth the viewing.

Until next week, I’ll see you at the theater.

Need a ‘snuggle’? Adopt a pet from our local Animal Shelter!

Karen Carl had a fabulous birthday dinner with her son, his wife and her parents. They had dinner at Longhorn in Jackson and the food and fellowship were fantastic! She says ‘Thank you’ to Aaron and Chrissy for dinner and ‘thank you’ Ed and Pam for joining them! Happy birthday Karen! It’s so nice when family makes you feel so special for your birthday, isn’t it?

My friend Beth Crider and her mom, Judy DeBerry, went to Memphis to the Brooks Museum where they met Bethie’s brother, Bill Little. They all had lunch together, then popped in for a viewing of the Impressionist Exhibit. It was amazing! Beth and her husband, Lewis, are also taking Beth’s parents to see Les Miserable at the Orpheum when it comes in September and taking McCauley to Nashville to see Wicked! Bethie and I both agree…Culture is so much fun!!

Dr. Sue McElrath’s sister-in-law and niece from Arkansas, popped in for a few days recently. Her patients got to see her ‘miniature assistant’ when her three-year-old niece, Ashlyn, helped her in the offi ce. She was so adorable and entertained the patients while making sure Dr. Sue was doing her job correctly! She would peek around the corner with her blanket and giggle when Dr. Sue’s patients made that ‘Ooomph!!’ sound while she worked on them. Dr. Sue misses her already. She was a cutie!

The fi rst grade class of Mrs. Irene Crandell is having a get together on August 13 at 2 p.m. Some of the local classmates are: Jack Pettigrew, Richard Carraway, David Tipton, Ray Mathis, Becky Stewart Booth, David Garland, Hoyt Hayes, Billy Blackwell, Danny Crum, Anita Burford,

Gloria Clinton, Roger Fletcher, Linda Ivey Pratt, Jim Livingston, David Kail, Ray Powell, Franklin Smith, Gloria Warren, Phil Vestal and David Mitchell. They have not been able to get in touch with Pat Young, so if someone knows how to fi nd her, please let her know about this. Can you imagine having a get together with your fi rst grade class?? That is amazing to me!

Peggy Haynes was fl ying high the weekend of the 23rd, which was her birthday! Stacy and her family were home, and Scott and his family hooked up with them for Sunday night dinner. Anna and Mia stayed with Peggy and Robert, Saturday evening of that weekend, while Scott and Brandy attended a baby shower for Rich and Jamie Hopkins, who are having a baby girl! (You know Jane Hopkins is thrilled out of her mind with that scoop!). Scott and his family all left to go back to Memphis after the baby shower.

Tracy Riddle’s parents, Larry and Helen Stanley, took all of them (her brother Kevin and his family, her sister Connie Perry and her family and Tracy’s family) 17 of them in all, to St. Louis for the weekend. They all planned to watch the St. Louis Cardinals play the Chicago Cubs together. They relished seeing Six Flags and the City Museum while they were there. Of course, they did a little shopping too! (Of course!)

Mary Ann Shaw tells us that Lynn Shaw’s two sisters came to Tabernacle Camp Meeting. Mr.& Mrs. James Adkins (Jim & Bess). Their two sons, Tom Adkins & Jim Adkins, Jr., drove them from Augusta, GA. Mrs. Bill Lloyd (Chloe) brought her two granddaughters Chloe and Katie from Jackson. Mr. and Mrs. William Perkins (Bill & Sandra) came from Jackson, TN along with

Mr.& Mrs. Bate Bond & John William.

Our sympathy goes out to the family of Mr. Billy Morris, who passed away last week. He was well known in Brownsville for running the Dairy Queen. We are deeply sorry for your loss.

George Norvell strikes again! While my mom was here, my cousin Bobbie Nolan, took her and my Aunt Rene to see the Summer Dinner Theater, at the Brownsville Baptist Church. It was directed by none other than George Norvell! By the time my mom got home, she had herself so tickled she could barely tell us about it! She said she hadn’t laughed so hard in years! Bravo to all the folks who performed in the annual BBC play. Everyone I have talked to absolutely loved it! I think a certain audience member, in particular, got all the other audience members totally wild with his hilarious, unexpected performance! His name was Jack Pettigrew… know him???? From what I heard, the cast took immense pleasure in their own on-stage magic that evening! It was Marvelous!

We have two community happenings this week! The fi rst one is Tuesday and it’s National Night Out Against Crime and Drugs. Everything is FREE and there will be food and music. It is always extremely successful. They will also have Recognition of the Cancer Survivors that evening since Relay for Life was cancelled. So Survivors…wear those Survivor Shirts!

Don’t forget Rotary Hamburg day Wednesday, at First South Community from 11 - 2.

Remember to keep that scoop coming! I can NOT do it by myself! You all are doing such a good job keeping me typing! [email protected] or 780-4111.

We welcome Mrs. Callie Yancey, Mrs. Rena Cooper and Mrs. Flossie Pugh to our facility and hope they enjoy their stay with us.

Thank you volunteers for coming this week: Christ Temple ladies, Rev. Charles Bates, First Assembly of God church ladies, Mrs. Juanita Austin, Bingo ladies and Community Temple of the Living Church.

Thank you to Mrs. Dora Mann for donating bananas to our patients for last Saturday’s bingo. They love playing bingo.

Our sympathy goes to the family of Mrs. Mary Perry. She will be truly missed.

An anonymous lady brought us some beautiful jewelry for our bingo prizes. Thank you, thank you!

On Tuesday, our patients enjoyed making

a frogeye salad. They loved making it, but especially enjoyed eating it.

Thank you also to the lady who brought us magazines. We appreciate your thoughtfulness, sorry we didn’t get your name.

Just a reminder, our monthly birthday party

will be August 4 at 2 p.m. Everyone is invited!

We all enjoyed James Allen Clark on Thursday. He interacts well with our patients, singing and playing his guitar. Thank you!

Thought for the Week: “Compliment someone and you’ll have smiles all week.”

“Christ does not want our work; He wants to work through us”. Those who live in the fl esh cannot please God. Brother Mark Conway used these illustrations to focus on his sermon titled, “Christ Lives in Me” with Galatians 2:20 and various other Scriptures used for support! Our prayer should be, “Lord, reveal Yourself through me”!

We enjoyed a visit from an old friend, Doug Wooden, who was out riding his motorcycle Sunday afternoon. We worked with him in Bolivar many years ago, and now he and Jimmy stay in contact through rabbit hunting tales.

The Lord’s Supper was observed Sunday night ending our summer schedule. Disciple- ship training begins August 7 at 6 p.m. with classes for everyone.

Last week, approximately twenty youth and adults enjoyed a swimming party at the home of Michael and Tammy Oliphant. Thanks to all of you that helped with summer youth events, and a huge thanks to Rachel Stewart for planning these happenings.

Brother Mark Conway reported twenty-two attended the men’s prayer

breakfast Thursday and he presented the devotion. Anyone interested in joining this faithful group, come to Zion’s family life center Thursday morning at six.

Those of you that know me know how much I love my family! We were able to see all of ours this week except Mason. Amanda, Jacob and Lillie came by Wednesday morning on the way to Dyersburg where Jacob saw the dentist. Lillie and I were his supporters while mom took care of the important matters. Jason came by after work to feed the dogs and visited for a while.

Thursday, we left for Franklin to visit with the Rainey’s before school starts. We returned to Jackson Saturday afternoon for a visit with our son Justin and his family. Of course, he says we only come to see Alivia. We then met Jessie and Norma Austin for supper, where we continued to enjoy family fun!

The Smith-Schwarz clan, along with Kim’s niece Paige Gil enjoyed a trip to Florida last week. No pedicure for me, but they had a well-deserved getaway!

Congratulations to Ashtyn Drake, a second

grader at Jackson Southside. According to great-grandmother Regina Williams, she scored a 4.5-6.9 on her achievement test. Also, Kaitlyn Schwarz scored a thirty on her ACT test and was entered in the 30+ club at HHS. Emily Siler, Peyton Wright, and Kaylee Avant attended a nurse camp at Union University and Kaylee received one of the two $1,000 scholarships from “ING” for nursing. Zion has lots of smart kids and we are certainly proud of all of them!

Zion’s seniors will travel to Mason for lunch August 9. Thanks to Elsie Haynes for planning the events for this group. You never know where they will go, but they always have fun!

Evangelist Keith Cook, founder of “On the Go Ministries,” will lead Zion’s Fall Revival beginning October 9. Keep praying for this event.

Pray for those who are sick, our military personnel and their families, the shut-ins and elderly, those who have lost loved ones and the leaders of our country.

Call me at 772-4257 if you have news. People want to know!

“The Cure For Worry,” was the subject of our pastor’s message Sunday. Most everyone has some trouble with worry. We are oblivious of today and worry about what happened in the past and what will happen in the future, what if! Worry strangles the life from us. It’s true, we should be concerned over some things, but there is a fi ne line between concern and worry. After we have made normal precautions, we should trust God to handle things. It’s also true, we have much more in life today that can cause anxiety then those in the past, diseases, our country’s debt, terrorists and getting older. We have the idea, it seems, that something is coming up that God can’t handle. Have we forgotten that we have a heavenly Father, who is in control, who takes care of the little birds and promises to take care of us, if we trust Him?

The choir sang the special music under the direction of Brother Ralph Brown and accompanied by Nancy Campbell.

Happy birthday to Erin Schweitzer, Teresa Vales, Gary King, Brenda Simpson, Terry Brown, Marisol Galvan, Darian Mullen, Lorie Jones, Kris Doyle and Ashley Paris.

We express our heartfelt sympathy to

the family of Mr. Tommy Diggs Jr. known as Smiley to his friends. We also express sympathy to the family of Mr. Billy Morris. The class of ’51 lost another of their classmates this week. Frank Edmonds was the fi rst football player from Brownsville to be elected High School “All American.” We express sympathy to Mary Dell and all the family. Thanks to Gene Vaughn, our class president, for many hours and work in compiling a remembrance book for our class. Each class member answered questions concerning their family and life following high school that went into a book. It is a treasure. Thanks also to Bland Boyd and all he does for us.

Dewey and I greatly appreciate the article written last week by Mr. Jerry Wilson on Dewey’s years and the radio ministry, also for the cards, calls, visits and especially the prayers offered for him. One wonderful benefi t coming from his illness was the Bibles given through the Gideons in his honor. Many people were able to hear and have God’s work to read. Life can sure throw us curves, but thank goodness for family, friends and the Lord to lean on. Thanks also to our pastor, Brother Fred

Campbell, for being there for us during that time. Dewey is much better.

Please continue to remember Dewey and Milton Booth. They both were able to attend church Sunday. We rejoice with Roy Lewis. His illness is in 100% remission. Others to include in our prayers are Ruth Taylor, Betty Barden, Doug Harvey, Betty Friend, Sandra Posey, Viola Brown and Fletcher Lewis. Also include Glenn White, Margaret Ann Fletcher, Dianne Gambill, Joann Chapman, Lorene Qualls, Justin Climer, Steven Sullivan and Billy Cobb.

Some of the vegetables in our garden are in full swing and others are winding down. Our two rows of peas have already produced about four bushels. About three bushels of butterbeans have been picked off one row. The corn did fairly well, and the tomatoes are just beginning to ripen. The fi gs are also ripening. We like to eat them raw, just peal and eat.

Lois Davis recently visited with her granddaughter, Tiffanie Jones Rosales and her husband Luis in Clarksville. Luis is in college at Austin Peay, and Tiffanie is teaching Chemistry in Clarksville High.

Sugar CreekRetirement Center News

Sugar Creek Retirement Center Newsby Shirley Tucker, Activity DirectorOur love and

sympathy are with Mr. Harold Nelson’s family this week as he passed away Tuesday morning of pneumonia. We will miss him.

Started off the week with Pastor Phillip Cook from First United Methodist Church bringing our residents a great message. Thank you, Pastor.

Monday we had David Marbury and his group called “Two or More” from Mississippi here to sing for us at 10:30 in the morning and then had David Smith, the singing fireman, here to sing at 3:30 in the afternoon. Talk about great entertainment, we have it. One more reason we’re called “the happening place.”

Watched an old, old movie the other day, “Arsenic and Old Lace.” How many of you remember that one? We have a new popcorn machine (the old timey one on wheels) so we’re just like a theater now. What’s a movie without popcorn and coke? Not worth a dime!

Want to thank some neat friends who came last

Saturday and entertained our residents. Our folks were especially thrilled to have Lisa Voss, Karen Carl and Luke Churchill. With voices like those two ladies have and Mr. Luke on the piano don’t you know it was a rare treat. Thanks so much folks, for sharing your weekend with us. Come again any time!

I’d like to welcome a new resident this week. Her name is Josephine Willis and she is from right here in Brownsville. She is in our respite room and will be here several weeks. We are so glad to have her and hope she enjoys it here. She will if she likes being waited on hand and foot.

Our love is with Martha Jane Williams as she recuperates from a fall in her room the other night. She didn’t break anything – thanks to the good Lord, but was in bed a couple of days with some aches and pains. Thanks to her dear friends, the Empson Walkers, et al. for checking on her daily. Nothing, absolutely nothing, beats FRIENDS.

Had a great watermelon party this

week. We were supposed to have a seed-spitting contest too, but Rose Lott, one of our esteemed kitchen staff, went to get the watermelon and got “seedless” melons. Needless to say, the contest got called OFF due to lack of SEEDS. I think I’m the only one here who doesn’t like any kind of melon. The residents love all of them, but especially the watermelon. They didn’t even mind not getting to SPIT.

Wendy Elrod and her son came by to visit Lily Peak Wednesday. Joan Lanphere had a nice surprise this week when her grandson, Charles Lanphere, who is with the Desoto County Sheriff’s Dept. in Mississippi, came and took her to Jackson for lunch. She was missing her daughter, Becky, who will be gone almost a month on an educational trip to Canada and Germany, so this was an especially nice treat. Speaking of Becky, she is the “teacher” on this trip, not the “teachee.” I know that’s not a word – I just kinda liked it.

Come see us!

Last Sunday, July 24, Mr. Hal Rodgers sang “Beulah Land,” and it was absolutely beautiful. Mr. Hal has a great gospel music ministry, and we are so fortunate to have him and his family in our church. Thanks for always sharing your talent with us, Mr. Hal.

Sunday, July 31, the Lords Supper was observed at Allen after a beautiful song by Sandi and Sonny Bishop.

Allen youth are continuing to have great “Experiencing God” studies on Sunday nights. It is wonderful to see the Holy Spirit moving and growing this committed group of young people.

We want to thank Phillip and Connie Cobb, Shey and Dawn Lovelace, Mike and Diane Presley and Melissa and Chad Kirk for hosting the Bible studies by their pools and grilling for our children, youth and college students.

The widows and widowers of Allen were treated to a luncheon on Sunday morning, July 31, immediately following the morning worship

service. This is a great ministry, and I hope they enjoyed being pampered.

Saturday, July 30, the annual Barden/Wilson Reunion was held at Woodland Baptist Church. As always, the food was delicious, and it was good getting to see everyone.

Happy Birthday wishes are offered to Dianne Gambill, Cherrie Poole, Shey Lovelace, Todd Francis, Martha Kirby, Jesse Dedmon, Sandi Bishop, Rachel Allen, Gale Watson, Jean Cozart, Connie Cobb, Tammy Emerson, Carolyn Jackson, Michelle Russell, Karley Timbes Bond, Dana Vestal Barden, Peggy Lea, Ralph Brown, Diane Outlaw Lyle, Tim Stokely and Carmon Hooper Lewis.

Happy Anniversary to Shey and Dawn Lovelace, R.J. and Tiffany Young, Tammy and Terry Emerson and Brenda and Raymond Gaters.

We extend our sincere sympathy to the family of “Miss Emma Jane” Gorman. Miss Emma Jane was a true lady in every sense of the word, and she

was one of the sweetest and most kind-hearted ladies that I have ever known. She was Alicia’s kindergarten teacher, and she was sweet, loving and kind, and one who will always be remembered by her students.

We are so sorry to hear of the death of Mr. Billy Morris. Please remember this sweet family in your prayers.

On our prayer list are Jerry Baggett, Jottye Newman, Martha Crutcher, Carolyn Danley, Liz Evans, Bill Duke, Ann Baird, Martha Byrd, Lena Slack, Peggy Canady, June Stockoff, Sara Escue, Robin Campbell, Diane Johnson Hart, Janet Lewis, Billy Morris, Fletcher Lewis, Faye Hart, Tommy Sorrell Family, Ann Caudle, Jay Grashot and Steve White.

Our Bible verse for this week is Psalm 14:1, which states, “The fool has said in his heart, there is no God. “

If you have news or prayer requests, please contact me at [email protected].

Have a great week.

Our Farmers Market is scheduled to begin this Saturday, August 6 at 7 a.m. it’s rather late in the year, but due to construction, we’ve had no choice this year. The Stanton Cannery is looking great too! You know the routine, bring your chairs and come on down from 7 a.m. – 11a.m. We’ll visit and eat regardless of how many farmers show up.

October 15 is the official date for the Civil War re-enactment in Downtown Stanton (I think it actually runs three days). Also that day is the Sorghum Festival at Oleo Acres and the Stanton Picnic on the Presbyterian Church lawn. There will be a lot going on that day around here. In case you forget, I hear cannons will go off about 9 that morning, should shake us all out of bed!

While it’s hot outside, start digging through your old pictures! We will be scanning them here at the Stanton Welcome Center/Library that day, and

have the video running continuously throughout the day too! Of course you may come by anytime, pull up a chair and watch the memories of Stanton inside where it’s cool!

STANTON is taking entries for a new logo, submit your entry by September! The Stanton Town Council will judge the entries. The cotton bowl has long been the symbol for Stanton and a lot of cotton is still grown around here. We need an alternative logo to use on business cards, letterheads, etc. So get those creative heads working!

A success story! Our very first GED student who came to us on a bicycle back in 2008, has opened his own business! B & M Car Wash & Detail is located in Mason, just down the road from Stanton. Everybody knows Tyrone Brewer can clean a car!! In December of this year he will graduate from Whiteville Technology and be able to

work on your car too! You go Tyrone!! We’re proud of you!!

It’s been an inspiration on our part to assist students in filling out grant forms and selecting colleges. Seems like the first brave souls who stepped out to get an education have come back to usher their friends in with them. We know some of them attend selected colleges simply because their friend may attend there, but as long as they go to school, it’s a win-win situation. It’s really great to see students helping each other!

Residents and former residents of Stanton, you may mail Stanton news to me at P.O. Box 181, Stanton, TN 38069, reach me at the Stanton Welcome Center/Library at 731-548-2564, or e-mail me at: [email protected]. Please put “Stanton News” in the subject line. Together we will look at the past, look toward the future, and report current events.

There will be a spaghetti supper beginning at 6 p.m. at the Dancyville Community Center on Friday, August 5. Donations will be accepted with all proceeds benefiting a central unit for the center.

Sue Goodman and I attended services at Harmony Baptist Church on Sunday, July 16, following services at Mt. Pleasant UMC. Trey Allen, son of Steve and Mindi Allen Jr. was baptized at Harmony on Sunday morning. Followings services, Sue and I enjoyed lunch at the Veranda Restaurant.

If anyone sees Drew McBride, ask him about Grandma Linda Cannon. Jimmy, Drew and other family members participated in a walk held at College Hill and Linda decided to join them, but did not tell them she was walking. The walkers got out of her sight and Linda wasn’t sure which way they went. She came down Thomas St. and was found by David Smith, The Singing Fireman. Linda was unsure which way the walkers had went, so Good Samaritan David drove her back to College Hill. The

walkers had already made it back and the family was searching for Linda. David spotted the family members and told Jimmy he had found Linda hugging a mailbox on Thomas St.

Birthday celebrations this week include Beverly Austin, Gabrielle Williams, Glenda Wilson, Nathan Morris, Gail Austin, Mary Beth Freels, Roger Kirkland, Ashlie Mothershed, Drake Sills and Lucille Elrod.

Prayer request this week include Sharon Boullion, James Elrod, Carol Bruce, Pat Jordan, Rosie Pentz, Caleb Kirkland, Jesse Austin, Linda Kirkland, Pattie Coburn, Jerry Morris, Carleigh Cannon, Sandra Glover, Camryn Dirl, Ruth Vestal, William Logan, Martha Frye, Jimmy Swain, Sandra Goodman, Leah Scallions, Enid Powell, Darlene Rossen, Fletcher Lewis, Dorothy Bruce, Earline Benard, Shirley Morgan, the military, the nation and the community.

Sympathy to the families of Mr. Billy Morris, Mr. James Turner, Mr. Buster Adams, Mr. Willie Jackson, Mr. Robert Watkins, Mrs.

Mary Perry and Mr. William Merriweather Sr. in the loss of their loved ones.

In closing, our Thought for the Week as published in the Upper Room Devotional by Joe Green of Minnesota, “The most important task God has for us today may not be on our to do list.” God calls us to take advantage of opportunities to show love and compassion to those in need. God often helps us break through the din of our routines so that we may hear the cry of those who are struggling and find ways to extend to them your love and friendship. I think when God presents circumstances where you witness someone in need, it is a test to see if you will do the right thing, which makes you reflect on how special it made you feel to comfort someone in pain or if you turn away and live with the guilt of knowing you could have helped someone and did nothing because it was not on our to do list.

If you have news to share, please call me at 772-1885 after 5 p.m.

Until next week, God bless.

We’ve had many requests this summer, the family genealogists are hard at work – we can tell! We had a request looking for a particular cemetery called Doolin-Currie. Do any of you know where the cemetery is located? We have it listed as a Haywood County Cemetery, but have no location on it.

Last week was Taylor Tabernacle week – sure was a hot one for it! If you’ve never attended this camp meeting, you should go sometime. It’s a great re-union and tradition no one is likely to forget anytime soon.

The Salvation Army in NC is looking for the owner of a Bible, which was found in the bottom of a bag of clothing. The

Bible dates back to the 1920’s and was given to Nannie Finison by her oldest son. If you know anyone connected with this family, please contact Liz Brown at the Salvation Army Select Store at 336-235-2662. The Bible is also listed on ancestry.com.

If you missed any of the episodes of Who Do You Think You Are? You can enjoy the re-runs going on this summer. NBC began airing the eight original episodes from earlier this year on Saturday, July 16, at 8/7c. The remainder of the episodes will run on Saturday’s at 8p/7c with a few exceptions. Check your local listings for the latest information, or visit www.nbc.com/who-do-you-think-you-are for more weekly information.

Your local Haywood County Genies worked on one of the episodes about Tina Turner (Currie). Another of our researchers from Memphis, John Marshall, worked on a different episode for Vanessa Williams.

John is a wealth of information when it comes to Mason and Stanton area. He has

published several books re-connecting families in Tipton and Haywood Counties.

At this time, there are a few of his books for sale at the Stanton Welcome Center/Library named: “Mason: A Glimpse into the Past.” The books are $20 each and full of information!

If entertainment is what you seek in Brownsville, look no further than the ‘Hatchie Queen’ as it sets it’s course for Disneyworld to celebrate the Hatchie Family Reunion. Many would say that this performance is one not to be missed in Brownsville, and would even go as far to travel a distance to see it. This play has been performing for nine years at Brownsville Baptist Church, and has continually been growing in popularity. It has managed to sellout every night it goes on for several years now, raising its seating number to 104.

About three months of preparation is put into the production before the cast and crew is ready. That’s not to say there isn’t a satisfy amount of comical improve that will keep you laughing through to the conclusion. The cast presents a spectacular performance that is not hindered too much by keeping up with lines by maintaining a light atmosphere that involves

and genuinely relates to the audience.

Some of the most popular characters are “Those Nasty River People” who provide the conflict and contradiction to the Bluebloods of the Hatchie Queen. These satirical performers are hysterical to behold and even harder to escape as they continuously find ways to pester the occupants of the paddle wheel boat, as well as trespass through the personal space of the audience.

The entire event is put on by volunteers from Brownsville Baptist Church as a non-fundraiser production that directs the income toward the delectable meals served by our very own Lily’s catering service. This series itself has branched out from an active drama team that Brownsville Baptist has been conducting for 40 years, and is directed by Mr. George Norvell into the masterful performance it has become. If you haven’t had a chance to see it this year, I would definitely recommend setting aside a day on the calendar for next year.

The fruits of labor, or rather the vegetables, are being picked this year by the First Presbyterian Church over at the garden by Passive Park in Brownsville. Owned by Ed McClanihan it is roughly two acres and holds much to harvest. It has become the start of a great effort for this church to do what they can for the community and supported missions elsewhere.

Each Saturday morning around 12 volunteers from the church come out to pick

and organize the corn, beans, potatoes, and many other vegetables into baskets to be sold for $15 each. The money earned is then put towards missions that the church supports. Currently they are supporting one in Mexico.

Some of the baskets are taken by the youth to several senior ladies and serves as a sign of the courteous nature of First Presbyterian. Several of the church members were even involved in the planting of the vegetables. This garden represents the rewards of doing for others as well as keeping bigger objectives in sight.
