GLENWOOD -- A “be on the lookout” (BOLO)
order has been issued by the Glenwood Police De-
partment (GPD) in the case of a missing juvenile.
Seventeen-year-old Tabitha Johnson of Glen-
wood, dob 10/28/1997, has shoulder length blonde
hair and brown eyes, according to the GPD.
“If anyone has seen Tabitha, we request that they
call the Glenwood Police Department, the Pike
County Sheriff’s Department, or have her call her
mother,” said Glenwood Police Chief Randy Reid.
“We need to be sure if she is okay and has not been
kidnapped.”
Reid, who stated that there were a lot of rumors
about the case currently circulating, and there was
little he could deinitively comment on at this point in the investigation.
Johnson was allegedly last seen Sunday night at
McDonald’s in Glenwood.

DUCK STAMP WINNERS ... Carowlyn Guise, Centerpoint art teacher, has announced that Centerpoint students, Jasmine Cates and Ismael Hernandez, won awards in the Junior Duck Stamp Contest. Cates (right) won first place in the 4-6 grade division, and Hernandez (left) won an honorable mention in the senior high competi-tion. The students competed with 500 others other students from across Arkansas.
GLENWOOD -- The Glenwood Cemetery Asso-
ciation is needing “a few good men” -- and women
-- to volunteer to help with needed work at the cem-
etery.
The historic cemetery is mowed regularly, thanks
to the donations of area residents. However, accord-
ing to board members, the $350 mowing fee requires
families who own cemetery lots to assist with dona-
tions, or to come and volunteer to help keep up the
property.
The Glenwood Cemetery Board hopes needed
work can be done before Father’s Day, June 21st.
You are invited to join the board at the Okay Cafe
for breakfast (or early lunch) on Wednesday, June
17th, at 10 a.m., and then join the tour of the cem-
etery.
Tree limbs and brush need to be cleared, so any-
one with a power saw, heavy equipment, a rake, or a
shovel is welcome to help.
The funds currently available for the cemetery
are planned to go toward an actual cemetery sign,
improved roadway, a possible pavillion, additional
platted lots and benches. However, none of these im-
provements are possible without the assistance with
the family graves throughout the cemetery.
Cemetery Association President, Sharon Noble,
may be reached at 501-318-8370, for additional
information, and donations can be mailed to the
Glenwood Cemetery Association at P.O. Box 2043,
Glenwood, 71943.
Recent donations include those made by: James
and Nell Bardwell of Arkadelphia, Betty Oliver of
Little Rock and Connie Waller of Royal.

Hello,
Many candidates are declaring themselves eligi-
ble for president in different parties, each one pre-
senting themselves proicient in solving America’s problems in areas of education, economy, social
disharmony, immigration, etc., often expounding
on their opponent’s weaknesses and untrustworthi-ness in political and private lives.
Over 200 years ago George Washington was ac-
claimed to fame for truthfulness, in a cherry tree
incident, Abe Lincoln for honest in walking miles to return a penny. Both men became President, each
presiding over wartime eras.George Washington’s father confronted young
George concerning a cherry tree incident being cut
down with a hatchet.Young George admitted that he was the culprit,
explaining to his father that he could not tell a lie
because he had been instructed on the consequenc-
es of sin and he rewards of a righteous lifestyle. His father was proud of his son’s forthcoming admis-
sion of guilt. He forgave his son, explaining “no
one is perfect and everyone makes a mistake ... admitting one’s mistakes makes a father proud of his son,”
“Oh, yeah, by the way son, where did you get the hatchet?”
“I stole it,” replied George, “but don’t forget, Dad, nobody’s perfect.”

Happy birthday to Eathen Melton, June 4, Glad-
ys Allen and Savannah Porter, June 8.Happy anniversary to our son and his wife, Jona-
than and Rhonda Morphew, June 6, and Danny and Becky Hodges, June 10.
Well, I have fairly often said that we make plans only to get to change them. Grandson Thomas Lee’s graduation from high school in Diboll, Texas, was Friday night. I had looked forward to that for some months and we planned to attend. With all the rain and looding that has taken place in Texas, the grad-
uation ceremony was changed from the stadium to the school gym. The gym is small so with 100 grad-
uates, they were limited to six seats each for their families. That didn’t any more than get Thomas’ family started. Jonathan and Rhonda were planning to attend, as well as us, then his other grandparents, and his parents Bobby and Nancy, plus Emily’s family. So, we and Jonathan and Rhonda, who also wanted badly to attend, decided to stay in Kentucky and Arkansas. Don’t you know that after it was too late for the four of us to get there, the sky cleared and the sun came out – and graduation was held outside after all! I guess some trips are just not meant to be made.
Since school is now out for the summer, families can travel, visit, and enjoy each other. We are hop-
ing that we will have visitors from various places. Once the children get old enough to be involved in
school activities, time to visit grandparents is lim-
ited, but we enjoy them when they do get here.
Rain, rain, rain – we have had it this month. I re-
corded a total of 14.22 inches for the month of May.
It reminds me of the old poem that we were required to memorize when in high school – The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner, “Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink”. Well we had plenty to drink and a lot more. The rivers are running over and the
lakes are illing up. There should be no shortage of water for the rural water systems across the country.
A concern that I have though is for our neighbors who live just north of us. Jim keeps a close check on them and from his reports they have moved away to parts unknown. The beaver family has been one of the hardest working neighbors that I can remember. Sometimes though, their excessive work has caused problems. For instance, when they build a dam that stops up the culverts under the county road. I’ll say this though, the Montgomery County road mainte-
nance crew have done a good job of staying on top of this. They have cleaned the culverts and restored
the road bed to where it used to be.Shortly after this road work was inished, I no-
ticed that the beaver family had moved. They must
have inally met their match, because all work has stopped on the dam building project. I have come to the conclusion that a beaver is no match for a cat-
erpillar (road grader). They have apparently moved
on to a better dam building site.
A thought for the week worth considering: “Your actions are so loud I can’t hear a word you are say-
ing.” See you next week.

Dear Editor,
One behalf of the Norman High Preservation
Program, Inc., I would like to take this opportunity to thank the businesses in Glenwood that donated items for our auction ad spaghetti supper that was held Thursday, March 21.
NHPP Inc. is trying to raise enough money to
build two ADA handicapped accessible bathrooms on the irst loor of old Norman High. OUr ultimate goal is to restore this building so it may be used
for community activities, events and as a learning
center for all age groups for the citizens of Norman and surrounding communities.
With the generosity of the following business-
es, we are closer to reaching this goal. I want to personally thank Jeanz, Blingz and Thingz, Bloo-
min Basket, Thresea Fashions, Glenwood Country Club, Plyler’s Home Center, Glenwood Florist, The Flower Shop and Wright’s Grocery for their dona-
tion and generosity in helping us to reach our goal.
NHPP Inc. is a non proit organization that depends on 100% donations and volunteers to operate.
Thank you so much for your support and making our fund raising event a successful one.
Sincerely,
Tana Floyd

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Group thanks businesses
In the 1980’s, the Pentagon awarded a contract to develop the High Multipurpose Wheeled Vehi-
cles designed to transport troops and cargo. It was nicknamed the Humvee and used extensively in the Persian Gulf War in the early 1990’s.
But the Humvee was not designed as combat ve-
hicle and offers little protection against explosive
devices.
Now Arkansas has an opportunity to play a major role in the replacement for the Humvee.
Lockheed Martin in Camden is one of three com-
panies currently competing for a contract from the
Department of Defense to produce close to 55,000
Joint Light Tactical Vehicles. The Department of Defense expects to award the contract by the end of this summer.
This week, in a unanimous vote the House ap-
proved $87.1 million in bonds to assist in inancing the manufacturing. $83 million of the bonds will be used for improvements such as land acquisition,
site preparation, and wastewater treatment. The re-
maining amount will be used for job training. The bonds are issued under the authority of
Amendment 82. This is the second Amendment 82 project approved by the General Assembly.
If Lockheed Martin is awarded the contract, it
will create close to 600 new full time positions. The average wage per job will be $46,720.
Another 600 jobs are expected to be created in South Arkansas as a result of this project. An in-
dependent economic report for the project stated “The increase in employment, during both the con-
struction and operation phase of the project, and the increase in employment due to the indirect impact
will lead to higher income tax revenue for the state.”We have posted a picture of the Joint Light Tacti-
cal Vehicle on our website www.arkansashouse.org.Although this economic development project
was the focus of our special session, we also passed legislation designed to save the state $10 million
over the next 5 years by consolidating a few state agencies.
And the General Assembly voted to move the May primary for 2016 to March. We also moved the date for the next Fiscal Session from February
to April next year.In addition, we addressed changes in our laws
to ensure federal funding for our highways would continue.
We look forward to updating you on the econom-
ic progress in our state over the next several months
as a result of this Extraordinary Session.

Medication for this Arthritis TypeJuvenile rheumatoid arthritis (also known as juvenile
idiopathic arthritis) is an inlammatory condition of the joints that occurs without any known cause in children seventeen years of age and younger. The joints located in the knee, ankle, wrist, hands, and feet often become swollen. The joints may also be stiff and painful which may lead to a child limping or appear clumsy.
Therapy for this condition focuses on limiting pain and swelling to help children participate in normal daily activities. Over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inlam-matory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen (Advil), and naproxen (Aleve) help reduce pain and inlammation. There are prescription strength versions of these OTC pain medications that may help with more severe pain and inlammation. Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) are used in combination with NSAIDs to help relieve pain and swelling of the joints. Metho-trexate (Trexall) is a common DMARD prescribed. Tu-mor necrosis factor (TNF) blockers such as adalimumab (Humira) and etanercept (Enbrel) are newer medications that have helped reduce signs of inlammatory condi-tions. Corticosteroids such as prednisone can be injected directly into the affected joint or taken by mouth to help reduce swelling.

HOT SPRINGS – The Arkansas
School for Mathematics, Sciences and
the Arts identiies students with potential, creates an opportunity to develop that potential and provides them the opportu-
nity to celebrate success, said Eric Jack-
son, general manager of Oaklawn Park, said during the school’s commencement ceremony for the Class of 2015.
Jackson was the featured speaker for Saturday’s ceremony that was held in Horner Hall at the Hot Springs Conven-
tion Center. He spoke about how horse racing can be broken down into inding horses with potential, development of that potential and celebration of success.
ASMSA operates much the same way, he said. The school seeks out students who have potential to succeed in its aca-
demic program from across Arkansas, including small rural school districts, he said. It creates an “unbelievable learn-
ing environment where potential can be developed,” he said, leading students to successful educational careers.
Jackson continued with the parallels between horse racing and ASMSA. Ev-
ery year about 30,000 horses are born, and each year about 30,000 students graduate from high school, he said. Of those racehorses, only about 100 eventu-
ally rise to the top. It is the same for high school seniors – only a few rise to the top. “And I also know 102 of them are sitting in this room right now,” he said.
Each year, there are about 40,000 races across the country. The very best are awarded what’s called Grade I status. There are only a handful to earn that sta-
tus, Jackson said, including the Arkansas Derby and the Kentucky Derby.
Similarly there are about 40,000 high schools in this country. The very best are awarded the equivalent of a Grade I status, he said, including ASMSA which was ranked No. 10 in the nation by The Daily Beast in 2014.
To succeed, however, the support team is critical. The horses have to have good people around it to develop its potential. By the time a horse gets to the races, 81 people, including trainers, jockeys, exer-cise riders, veterinarians and many oth-
ers have had a hand in its development, Jackson said.
While he could not be sure of the number of people involved in each graduates’ success, he said he would not be surprised if that number was at least 81 when parents, teachers at all levels, counselors, neighbors, coaches, family members and many others are included.
And just as in horse racing, it helps to be in the right place, he said. Being able to say that you graduated from the Arkansas School for Mathematics, Sci-
ences and the Arts is an important dis-
tinction from other high schools, he said. In the end, however, the students’ ulti-
mate success is up to them, he said. “If you really were racehorses, you’d
be the heavy favorites. So the question is not if you’ll be successful; the question
is when and where. And that may come down to what is your personal deinition of success,” he said.
Jackson shared examples of several of his friends. One is a successful CEO of a big business. Another is a physician who runs a free clinic in his spare time. Yet another used to have a professional career that he gave up to run a ministry in a low-income neighborhood.
“Whatever it is, you’ll have to deine your own deinition of success. I’m pret-ty sure if it involves being challenged, being fulilled, being engaged and being personally satisied, you will have found your success,” he said.
He said his personal hope was that they would ind their success in Arkan-
sas. It is the people of Arkansas who made ASMSA and the students’ opportu-
nity to attend such a school a possibility, he said, adding that if they ind success in Arkansas, the investment in the school and them is rewarded.
“Because truth is, Arkansas needs you. The best way for our state to develop its own potential is if the best and brightest among us help lead us. And you are our best and brightest,” he said.
The Class of 2015 included 102 grad-
uates who were recognized during Satur-day’s ceremony. As a class, the students earned $14.6 million in scholarship of-fers from colleges, universities and other sources.
Corey Alderdice, ASMSA’s director, encouraged the students to “not feed the trolls.” In an online commentary envi-ronment, a troll is a person who meets any attempt to communicate or reason
with them with negativity, often antago-
nizing other commenters. But trolls are not limited to the Internet, Alderdice
warned, and many of the graduates will encounter trolls in the future, whether it is classmates, coworkers or sometimes even their own doubts.
He encouraged the graduates to not give their time, energy and attention to the people who say, “you are not enough.”
“You cannot control the trolls. But you can control how you handle them. When you make the decision to not feed the trolls — when you decide to focus your time, attention and energy on af-fecting positive changes on the journey ahead of you — you will go farther (and) faster than you ever dreamed possible,” he said.

A MESSAGE FROM THE TEACHER:
Mrs. Cowart’s 5th grade Social Studies classes at
Centerpoint Intermediate School studied the Civil War
and then did a short end of the unit research project in
order to produce “newspaper articles” about different
subjects of the Civil War. Students were able to choose
among a few topics and then were free to create their
own articles based on their research. In class, they pro-
vided pictures and resources along with their written ar-
ticles. Here are a few of the articles for the local public
to enjoy! You just might learn something. J
CIVIL WAR PHOTOGRAPHY
By Bailey N. Brown
“A picture is worth a thousand words.” To me they all
hold potential and make lots of memories.
Cameras were not very important in 1861, this is
when the Civil War irst started. During the Civil War they were used to capture intense ights, but not many ights were caught on camera. That is because pictures cost way too much money back then. The cameras also
took black and white photos.
Photographs of the Civil War quickly became popular
among general public, because of the shocking and real-
istic nature of photos.
One of the most famous names in Civil War photog-
raphy is Mathew Brady. Brady didn’t take many pictures
of himself but had many workers in his studio to snap
some pictures.
In conclusion, Civil War was a major part of photog-
raphy and photography was a huge part of the Civil War.
Today you can still look back and see most of the horrors
and glories of the war.
CIVIL WAR WEAPONS/DEATH TOTAL
Interviewer Ben C. Williams
Weapons on the Battleield and at Camp:Interviews with several Union and Confederate sol-
diers told us about 34 different types of weapons that
were used some major categories of weapons are riles, (muskets were very inaccurate but easy to kill somebody
if they were all lined up), cannons, hand explosives, pis-
tols, swords (that also counts bayonets), artillery, and
misc. (miscellaneous includes pikes, railroad cars Iron-
clad warships and others like it). But despite all of those
weapons that you could kill someone with, there were
only just over 110,000 Union soldiers that died in com-
bat (and 250,000 other deaths) and just over 95,000 Con-
federate combat deaths (and over 165,000 other deaths).
Other deaths included disease, accidents, drowning, heat
stroke, suicide, murder, execution, and many others like
it. And only 1% of people died of bayonets or swords.
That meant that most people were killed with bullets. In
fact, bullets had grooves in them that would carry bacte-
ria. When shot, the soldier would get the bacteria in him
and that would for sure kill him.
Weapons were not only used for the battleield, they also had some uses at camp. For instance, bayonets
could open cans, pikes could spear animals and railroad
cars could ship goods and wound people. That concludes
this week’s interview. See you around!
ABRAHAM LINCOLN KNEW HOW TO
LEAD THE UNITED STATES: HE WENT BAT-
TLEFIELD TO BATTLEFIELD FIGHTING
FOR OUR FREEDOM
By Brayden Taylor
Abraham Lincoln was born February 12, Hodgenville
KY. From that day on until he died, he was thinking of
how to improve this. Since Lincoln was elected Presi-
dent in 1806 on November 16th he has improved the US.
By freeing slavery and going to battleields, he even was held at gun point at the Battle of Antietam. On April 14,
1864, at Ford Theater, Abraham Lincoln was shot by
John Booth. Nurses of the Union did all they could but
the 16th President of the United States was dead. His son
Willie Lincoln which was originally buried in Washing-
ton DC. was dug up and they put Abraham and Willie on the 9th car of an Inaugural train which from then on was
called Lincolns death train. It went from Washington DC to Springield Illinois as Abraham and Willie rested in peace and now are at home resting in peace.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN -- WHO WAS HE?
By Cady Kuykendall
Abraham Lincoln was born February 12, 1809. Abra-
ham Lincoln lived in a cabin on the frontier. Lincoln
hunted bear, deer, and other animals and his mom made
clothes out of the skin. Lincoln’s pants were always
tight after it rained or after they had been washed, so
he always had blue marks on his legs because of that.
Abe worked hard on the frontier, he got an ax when he
was seven for a reward. Abe was also a great scholar!
His best subject was arithmetic. His favorite books were
Aesop’s Fables. Abe also found a common interest in po-
etry by listening to Jack Kelso.
Lincoln married Mary Todd Lincoln and had four
children. William Wallace Lincoln, Robert Todd Lin-
coln, Edward Baker Lincoln, and Tad Lincoln. Only one
grew up, married, and had kids. The rest died from ill-
nesses.
Lincoln served in the military for three months, until
he was elected president, November 6, 1860. He was the
sixteenth president. While he was president he created
the Union side of the war, which were people who were
against slavery. After long, bloody battles the Union i-
nally won! People still used slaves. Lincoln issued the
Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863. It stated
“That all persons held as slaves are, and henceforward,
shall be free”.
Lincoln was assassinated April 15, 1865. People were
mad because Lincoln was ranked one of the greatest
presidents! They igured out Lincoln was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth.
Abe Lincoln’s death train went through Albany, New
York. The train had nine cars, Lincoln and his son (Wil-
liam) cofins were in the ninth car. Lincoln’s death train passed so people could say their farewells to President
Abraham Lincoln.
30% FOUND DEAD IN CIVIL WAR PRISON
By Dathan Vaught
In Fort Delaware up to 25% of inmates found dead in prison, and up to 29% found dead in Andersonville.
Most of it caused due to disease and malnutrition. This
was found out on March 23, 1863.
1 in 5 inmates died at Andersonville prison. 15.5% of
the inmates died in the southern prisons. Over 6,000 of
the men captured and taken to Andersonville died. The
Confederates captured more than 210,000 men. 12% of
men died in the northern prisons. Over 460,000 men
were captured by the Union. About 31,000 of those men
died. Somewhere around 60,000 of those men captured
were killed or died in the prisons.
Neither side (North or South) had a prison at the time
of the start of the war. They say that the prisons were a
lot worse than any battle you could’ve fought in because
of all the diseases that spread around the prison. For ex-
ample: Typhoid, Malaria, and Pneumonia. There were more than 150 prisons built throughout the war and they
all held more people than they could handle. Anderson-
ville was the worst, cruelest, and most unsanitary prison
there was in the Civil War.
THE WAR TAKES A U-TURN
By Hayden Rogers
Everything about Gettysburg was big except the size
of the town. The losses were big, the address was big,
the battle was big, and the outcome was big, but why?
On July 1, 1883, two armies irst collided to the west and north of Gettysburg. The irst day, the Confederates had the Union outnumbered 3 to 2 and easily won. On
day 2, the Confederates wrapped around the Union and
slightly advanced, but the Union still held their ground.
On day three, the ighting slowed down and the Union won.
July 4th was when the Confederacy began to retreat,
but it was also the day General Grant led the Union
forces to victory at Vicksburg. The 140th New York
Regiment was present at the Battle of Little Round Top.
During the battle, their commander, Henry O’Rorke, was shot and killed. After the battle, seventeen bullet holes
were found in his body.
CIVIL WAR TIMES
“Confederate Flag “Stars and Bars” Captured by
Union Army!”
By Jayden Alyce McCormick-Drye
A major battle in Columbia leads to the capture of the
lag, ”Stars and Bars”. Confederate army led by General E. Lee is greatly ashamed.
While the Confederate army is glooming around, the
Union celebrates for the victorious capture. I bet they are
like a horse free in a meadow! The Confederate army is
still deciding the punishment for the color guards, which
is the person who protects the lag. Whether it’s life or death it won’t be pretty. While the lags can represent great honor, they also can be a great dishonor.
What do you call a lag that is in a star jail?Stars and Bars!
Fun facts: The Confederate lag, ”Stars and Bars”, was the irst oficial Confederate lag.
LINCOLN GIVES TRIBUTE
By Jordyn Cotter
On Thursday, November 19, 1863, Abraham Lincoln
gave a soon-to-be famous speech. People are calling it
The Gettysburg Address. Many people attended to the
speaking at the site of Soldier’s National Cemetery.
Known for his speaking, Edward Everett, gave a total
of two hours for his speech. Next was Abraham Lincoln
to give his speech to dedicate to the soldiers for their
bravery.
After Lincoln’s two-minute speech, which was two-
hundred and seventy-two words long, Edward Everett
admitted to him “I wish that I could latter myself that I had come as near to the central idea of the occasion in
two hours as you did in two minutes.” Lincoln reined the Civil War as a struggle, not just for the Union, but
also for the principle of human equality.
The Gettysburg Address was a small speech, but has
really had a big impact on the people there that day!
MUSIC TODAY
By Makenzie Grider
Music is the backbone of our country. Especially in
this terrible time. The music keeps us smiling during
rough times.
General Robert E Lee agrees with us. Saturday, May
4, 1861 we were interviewing him about the army life.
We brought up the music in the army and he said, “With-
out music, there would be no army.” It keeps the army
entertained, and everybody else too!
William Oland Bourne, writer of, “Arm! Brothers
Arm!” was interviewed Friday, May 24, 1861. He said
that he was aware of the results of his song. He told us
that he loved playing in front of everyone who could
make it.
People understand how much one thing can change
people’s feelings and lift up their spirits. Others and I are
quite glad that music is a huge part of the War Between
the States.
THE BLOODY GETTYSBURG
By Marlee Bright
“The enemies will be here in the morning and we will
have to ight like devils,” General Buford from the North said to his soldiers.
The Battle of Gettysburg was most famous for Abra-
ham Lincoln’s speech. This battle was a turning point in
the war and had many people captured, killed, or wound-
ed. The Union (North) had at least 10,000 more soldiers
than the Confederate (South).
It all started when a horseman from the North saw a
general getting well needed shoes for his soldiers. Once
they both met eyes the General left without the shoes
to go warn all the confederate soldiers. Another general
from the South did not believe this warning. A general
from the North told his soldiers they would come in the
morning and they will have to ight like devils. When the battle was over people were awfully sad
that their loved ones died. The Gettysburg Address (the
famous speech that Abe Lincoln presented) made others
feel a lot better. The Battle of Gettysburg, July 1-3, was
bloody and had scary times, but most of it was a big part
of the Civil War.
BATTLE OF ANTIETAM
DANGEROUS EVEN FOR A NURSE
By Molly Matthews
Too close to the battle ield can be bad luck for Clara Barton! At the battle of Antietam (the bloodiest battle)
Clara was helping a wounded soldier when all of a sud-
den . . . Bam!! A bullet came from the battle ield, went through Clara’s sleeve, and killed the man she was treat-
ing! Nobody knows if someone tried to shoot Clara, the
man, or both!
Clarrissa Harlowe Barton (Clara Barton) was born
in Oxford, Massachusetts on December 25, 1821. Clara wanted to help soldiers in the Civil War, so she became
a nurse. Clara was the president and founder of the Red
Cross foundation until 1904 when she retired. One thing
Clara did was make bandages out of corn husk to help
wounded soldiers.
Clara was the youngest out of 6, a teacher when usu-
ally men were, and was a book keeper and clerk for her
oldest brother. She continued her tradition of philanthro-
py as a Volunteer in Cuba during the Spanish-American
war in 1904. Also in 1869 she traveled to Switzerland as
a member of the International Red Cross. Not only did
Clara found the Red Cross, but saved hundreds of lives.
THE BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG:
FAMOUS AND IMPORTANT
By Rachel Thomason
The Battle of Gettysburg was fought over shoes!? No,
this is just a myth. In 1877 a confederate general named
Henry Heth told his story. Henry Heth said that he need-
ed shoes for his men, so he sent a general to Gettysburg
to get them. Well, when they got there, there were no
shoe factories around. So, they tried to go somewhere
else but they ended up running into the Union. This was
the myth of the Battle of Gettysburg.
The Battle of Gettysburg was fought July 1-3, 1863
in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The reason is because, Lee
wanted to invade the North for the second time. (How
did it start), well the two armies ended up colliding West
and North of the town Gettysburg.
(Other facts) 63 medals of Honor were awarded to
Union soliders for their actions at Gettysburg. The Battle
of Gettysburg was fought on some of the hottest days of
that summer. It was the most famous and important Civil
War battle. Of the 120 generals present at Gettysburg 9
were killed or mortally wounded.
OLD CIVIL WAR PHOTOGRAPH FOUND
NOW BEING PLACED IN A MUSEUM
By Taytum L. Hammett
Old Civil War photographs found in the Southern
United States are now being observed and being placed
in a museum! These photographs are considered the irst major conlict to be extensively photographed. Photogra-
phy during the Civil War, especially for those who ven-
tured out to the battleields with their camera and all of their heavy equipment, including their dark room (which
is something they have to have, or it would not work)
, was a very dificult and time consuming process, for example, about 15 to 20 minutes just for 1 photograph!
The photograph found from the 1860’s was a very,
very priceless or remarkable, incredible founding, I’m
even surprised myself! Photographers also had to pre-
pare to process cumbersome light-sensitive lash in a cramped wagon to make or take the photo. This photo-
graph gives us a scent, or a taste of what it was like dur-
ing the Civil War. In my opinion, I think the photography
during the Civil War is very intriguing. Then, in 1861,
the newest technology comes to town, the newest way to
get photographs. Introducing the new and improved way
to get a photograph, the wet –plate photograph, a helpful
process in which the image is captured on chemically
coated pieces of plate glass.
The reason why they thought of this process, is be-
cause normal cameras in the time of the war were too
bulky and too dificult to maneuver. All the chemicals to make the picture process had to be made all by hand,
including the mixture called collidion, collidion is made
up of a lot of different dangerous chemicals, for exam-
ple, ethyl ether, and acetic or sulfuric acid. It might be
easier, but more dangerous.
Many of the Civil War photographers produced so-
phisticated three-dimensional images. By the 1860’s,
photography was widely available. Like for example,
Daguerreo types, ambro types, iron tint types, and cartes de visite types.
One photographer named Mathew Brady made civil
war images. During the Civil War, Brady spent over $100,000 to create over 10,000 photographed plates. His
greatest historical contribution was his inancial down-
fall, and died bankrupt.
BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG
By Tristen Kaumans
The Battle of Gettysburg started on July irst when two divisions of Confederates headed back to Gettys-
burg. They ran into Union Calvary there west of the town
of Willoughby Run and that’s when the battle began.
Lee hurried and got 25,000 men to the scene and the
Union had less than 25,000 men. After a lot of ighting and lots of casualties on both sides, the Union was push-
ing back the town of Gettysburg. Meade later arrived at
the scene and thought it was a good place to do a battle
with Lee’s army. Meade anticipated reinforcements to-
taling up to 100,000 men to arrive and make his defen-
sive position stronger. Lee decided to attack the Union
army’s defensive place at the south end of Cemetery
Ridge which Lee thought was less well defended.
At 10:00 A.M. the next morning general Longstreet was told to attack by Lee, but he was slow getting the
soldiers into position and didn’t attack until 4:00 P.M. which gave the union more time to strengthen their po-
sition. When, general Longstreet attacked some of the
worst ighting of the Civil War happened at places now part of American military folklore such as little round
top, devils den, the wheat ield, and the pearl orchard.Longstreet took Pearl Orchard but lost it at Little
Round Top. At 6:30 P.M. general Ewell attacked the Union front from north and south. The battle lasted until
night. By about 10:30 P.M. the ighting ended for the day. The Union lost some area during the battle but they
still had their position along Cemetery Ridge.
At 4:30 A.M. the next day, battles started again when Union cannons pounded the confederates on Culp’s Hill
to drive them from the trenches and then they fought and
the Union won the Battle of Gettysburg.

Deep in the seas and oceans of the Earth, there is a world that few people ever
see with their own eyes. Below the surface of the water is a world that is teaming with
life! Fish, ocean mammals, jellyish, plants, coral and many other lifeforms inhabit the waters. These plants and animals are a part of the oldest and most complex
ecosystem on the planet. Many people enjoy visiting places that allow you to see
what is below the surface. One example is the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. Many scuba divers and snorkelers swim with the animals to observe them. Scientists use underwater robots with cameras to record ocean life. In places where the water is clear enough, boats with glass bottoms take tours for people to see what is below. If you are unable to get to the ocean, Aquariums are another way to learn and observe what lives below. Although we have studied the oceans for centuries, we still do not know all that there is to know about what is below. There are sea creatures that few people have ever heard of and almost deinitely ones that have not even been dis-
covered. In some ways, we know more about outer space than we know about what is at the deepest parts of the oceans. Always remember to care for these animals by being responsible on land. Dispose of your trash properly when you are at the beach. Don’t litter the oceans. Respect them, and they will be a healthy home for centuries to come!

We celebrated Memorial Day this past week. We rightly remem-
bered those who gave everything they had to give. We gave honor where honor was due. We saluted men and women who gave their very lives in defense of our cherished freedoms. We maintained and decorated graves of war heroes and others all across this great country of ours.
There are other great things that we ought to remember. The Bible is full of testimonials and remembrances of the mighty acts of God. Remembering them is no accident; remembering will occur when he purpose to do so. Remembering will bring tremendous beneits to us and others.
Some 3,000 years ago the Israelites stood at the banks of the swol-len to lood-stage Jordan River. As they stared at the muddy water God made an incredible promise. He told them that He would cause the rushing water to stop and pile up in a heap upstream, so that they could cross on dry land. They believed God and crossed.
In Joshua chapter 4 God told the twelve tribes of Israel to gather
twelve stones from out of the Jordan River and build a memorial. He wanted them to remember the mighty miracle He had done for them. God gave some speciic instructions and explicitly spelled out the pur-pose for this memorial.
In verse 3 He said for each man to choose for himself a stone. God is telling us that we are each responsible for creating our own memorials to what God had done for us personally.
In verse 6 God tells us that if we will build the memorial to His mighty deeds, our children will ask about it. He told us we would have the privilege of explaining the memorial to our children when they ask, not if they ask.
Please do not miss the fact that God says your children will not sim-
ply ask what the memorial means, but rather what does the memorial mean to you. A memorial to the mighty works of God will have little impact on your children unless it means something to you personally.
In verse 24, God clearly declared the purpose for the memorial: “that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the LORD is mighty, so that you may fear the LORD your God forever.”
If you are a Christian, you have a duty to God to inform your chil-dren of the marvelous works of the mighty hand of God. Verse 24 also
points out that it will have a great beneit for you as well, causing you to fear the Lord your God forever.
Let me encourage you to compile some spiritual markers from your life. If you do nothing more than make a list of them and explain the list to your children that will be a good thing. Better yet, if you can come up with some physical objects that you can show them while explaining their signiicance, they will remember better and for a lon-
ger time. The best method is to gather some objects which symbolically rep-
resent times when God worked in your life and igure out a way to dis-
play them in a prominent location in your home or business. A written description of each object’s signiicance should be included so that it will bless future generations. Shadow boxes are marvelous.
If you are having trouble thinking of objects, I have a suggestion that every Christian could start with. A Christmas tree ornament made from a life-size replica of a nail used in irst century cruciixions is a fantastic place to start.
I pray that the Lord will bless your efforts to memorialize His mighty acts in your life.

OBU confers 343 degrees in Spring 2015 ARKADELPHIA, Ark.—Celebrating Ouachita
Baptist University’s 128th spring commencement, university oficials conferred a total of 350 degrees on 343 graduates, including the university’s irst three Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees.
Ouachita President Rex Horne also presented Dr. J.D. “Sonny” Tucker, executive director of the Ar-kansas Baptist State Convention, with an honorary Doctor of Divinity degree on behalf of the univer-sity’s Board of Trustees.
Describing Ouachita’s graduating class of 2015 as “smart, bright, energetic, enthusiastic, question-
ing, discerning and incredibly committed,” Tucker thanked the graduates for “the impact you have al-ready had and the lifelong Kingdom impact you will have.”
Afirming the graduates’ legacy as difference makers, President Horne urged each of the graduates to “bear fruit and good works and do God’s work throughout your life.”
This year’s graduating class featured 143 honor graduates, including 21 who graduated summa cum laude with a grade point average of 3.95 or higher, 46 who graduated magna cum laude (3.75 GPA) and 76 who graduated cum laude (3.5 GPA).
Ouachita Baptist University, a leading liberal arts university, is ranked nationally among America’s top colleges by U.S. News & World Report and Forbes magazines. Founded in Arkadelphia in 1886, Ouachita seeks to foster a love of God and a love of learning in a Christ-centered learning community.

Local paper carrier leads team to medalBY KATELYN COFFMAN
Staff Writer, Graves Publishing
NASHVILLE – A local man and long-
time paper carrier for The Nashville News
recently took two bocce ball teams to victo-
ry at the Special Olympics Summer Games
for the second year in a row.
John Jack Lepkowski did not plan to
obtain not only one, but two gold medals
during his time at Harding University in
Searcy last weekend. While both wins can
be equally chalked up to his skill and devo-
tion to the game, it seems as though fate
had a hand when, through a luke, he was chosen for a spot on a second team.
Lepkowski, who was representing the
Howard County Children’s Center in both
instances, explained that a fellow player in-
jured his ankle, leaving what should be a
two man team one member short.
“Glenda York said, ‘pick a number be-
tween one and 100 and I picked 20 so I got
the spot,’” Lepkowski related during an in-
terview Tuesday.
The lucky number earned Lepkowski
multiple moments of glory, and best of all,
allowed him to participate even more in the
game he loves.
“I like the game,” he remarked. “It’s a lot
of fun and you get to meet a lot of interest-
ing people.”
The athlete has only been participating
in bocce for two years, but has won state
championships during both.
He attributes his success to natural assets
and plenty of practice, all of which not only
enhanced his ability but instilled the con-
idence in him that he needed for success.“See, I’m a tall person, so that really
helps, because you see, I play it like I’m
just bowling,” Lepkowski said, going on to
note that he practiced as much as he could
even though the heavy rainfall of late put
several kinks in his practice schedule.
He later added, “I knew I was ready to
play and ready to get it done.”
With great success comes great sacriice, however, and Lepkowski has already dis-
covered a struggle that fame often brings.
“The girls won’t leave me alone now,”
he expressed. “It’s only going to get worse
if I keep getting my picture made, but I feel
great.”
Lepkowski and the other victors’ medals
were presented by the North Little Rock
Police Department.
“I am proud of what I accomplished,”
the champion said.
Lepkowski also told The News that he
plans to play bocce next year and lead his
team to the championships once again be-
cause he is trying to do things while he’s
“still able”.
“I may not look it, but I am a middle-
aged man, and I want to do things like
bocce before I can’t do them anymore,” he
stated.
Lepkowski has done work for the How-
ard County Children’s Center, where he
“does pretty much anything” they tell him
to, and The Nashville News since 1999. He
was promoted to news carrier three years
ago.
“Working here is just fun,” he said. “I
love it here.”

Caddo Hills class of 1977 opens time capsuleBY DEWAYNE HOLLOWAY
Editor, Montgomery County News
CADDO HILLS -- Mrs. Jackson’s 6th
grade class gathered Saturday for a very
special look back to their old school days
and dreams when they came together to
open a time capsule they had stored away
in 1977.
Most people know Mrs. Jackson as Mary
Beth Lysobey, but to the Caddo Hills senior
class of 1984 she is still Mrs. Jackson.
Everyone remembered that the time cap-
sule was her idea, a project for the class
when they were in 6th grade, however she
couldn’t remember why she had them do
the project. Some of the students seemed to
recall them reading about another class cre-
ating a time capsule, which may have been
the seed for the idea.
Regardless of why they did it, several
of the 50 plus members of her 1977 sixth
grade class were in attendance Saturday at
the Caddo Hills cafeteria for the opening of
the 38 year old treasure trove.
They had planned on opening it earlier,
but a building project at the school some
years ago had brought about the premature
unearthing of the capsule. It had been safe-
ly stored away by a school employee, but
had been lost to the class.
That is, it had been lost until class mem-
ber Robbie Warren found it. He had asked
around and found that it was sitting in the
shop of Kerry Cox awaiting the return of
its creators.
Cox returned the capsule to Warren. The
class gathered in anticipation to see what
waited inside for them.
Time had clouded the memories of the
day they had collected items for the cap-
sule. No one could remember exactly what
they had put inside. They could remember
that there was a cassette tape and some
notes, but they would have to wait until the
opening to see what else had been inserted
into the capsule so many years ago.
The class gathered Saturday, May 30
at the school cafeteria to open the cap-
sule. The capsule was nothing more than a
piece of heavy gauge PVC pipe. Unfortu-
nately the pipe had not been thick enough
and somehow it had been cracked over the
years.
Undaunted by the thought that their trea-
sures may have been destroyed, the class
gathered around a table with the capsule
sitting atop it as Robbie Warren and Neil
Simpson put saw blade to the capsule. They
plastic held irm against their efforts, but with the help of Robert Brandon the con-
tents inally saw the light of day again after nearly 37 years.
As items were removed the classmates
began to remember what they had placed
inside.
There were class pictures of the class,
as well as letters and drawings prepared by
the students. They had written essays as to
what life would be like in 2002. The cas-
sette looked as if it had soaked up too much
water. Classmate Shelley King stated that
she knew some people who worked with
audio equipment and felt that they might be
able to save the contents of the tape.
The letters were wrapped in a Novem-
ber 7, 1977 copy of the Arkansas Gazette
to commemorate the day the capsule was
closed and buried. Other items included a
pill bottle, some Star Wars trading cards, a
comb and a Gideon New Testament Bible.
The contents were carefully separated
and put on display for everyone to enjoy.
Many of the classmates had their families
with them and were able to share these
memories with them.
Some of the predictions made spoke of
lying cars and bubble cities, while others hit pretty close to home with mention of
solar heated homes and looding.The class wanted to thank Mrs. Jackson,
AKA Mary Beth Lysobey, for encouraging
them to create the capsule. They were also
thankful for the efforts of Robbie Warren
in inding it.

Small things matterBY ASA HUTCHINSON
Governor, State of Arkansas
One of the many great stories about the way Sam Walton did business involves a young Walmart employee who igured out a simple way to save money. The associate had the job of delivering printed reports internally within the company. Over time, he no-
ticed something. He was just adding the new stack to the last stack. People weren’t reading the printed reports. Why? Because they
already had all the data electronically.
At one time, those written reports were essential, but technol-ogy had made them obsolete. The young associate approached Sam Walton about this waste and, at the next senior staff meeting, Mister Sam and the young man carted out a large pile of unread reports.
He had demonstrated his point. His employees could literally see the waste.
The subsequent elimination of those printed reports added up to big savings. It was a small, practical thing that made a big dif-ference.
This week, legislators overwhelmingly passed my plan to reor-ganize four state agencies in an effort to make your government work smarter and more eficiently.
These practical “eficiencies” included elevating the Depart-ment of Rural Services and the Arkansas Science and Technol-ogy Authority into the Economic Development Commission. This enhances the importance of both Rural Services and Science and Technology while also providing them more support and coordina-
tion.
Also, the Arkansas Building Authority moves to the Department of Finance and Administration, and the Division of Land Survey merges into the Arkansas Geographic Information Ofice. These reorganizations will enhance, modernize and provide better re-
sources for these agencies. All while saving money. I liked what Sen. Jim Hendren had to say about these changes:
“What I see happening is the same thing I do and other business people do every day: look for ways to deliver the same services at a more economic cost to taxpayers. If one person can do both of those functions, it makes no sense to taxpayers to duplicate that effort.”
Senator Hendren is right. After all, it’s your money we’re spend-
ing. We have a sacred trust to manage it properly. Over a 10-year period, these small steps could result in a poten-
tial savings of up to $25 million. Over ive years, we could realize potential savings of up to $12 million.
That’s real money. But what I really like is that we’ll be saving money while making government more responsive.
More savings, better customer service. I have a feeling Sam Walton would like that philosophy.
