METH ‘COOKS’ CAUGHT IN THE ACT
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
Editor
There’s no way you can deny
it when you’re caught in the
act. And for three Knox County
men, there was no doubt they
were all cooking meth when the
law walked in and caught them
red-handed.

Hinkle, 44, of Gray, Dexter Messer,
35, of Hinkle, and Ronald Brock,
61, of Hinkle, in the process of
“cooking” methamphetamine.
During the investigation, the
officers found four separate
active methamphetamine labs
inside the building.
All three men were arrested
and charged with manufacturing
methamphetamine, unlawful
possession of methamphetamine precursors possession
of controlled substance 1st
degree and possession of drug
paraphernalia. Tommy Hinkle
and Dexter Bledsoe were also
charged with trafficking in a controlled substance 1st degree.
They were all lodged in the
Knox County Detention Center.
Kentucky State Police DESI

Editor
A Barbourville woman
will face the grand jury
after allegedly shooting a
man in the back Saturday.
According to a KSP
news release, Edward
Mason was shot in the
back by Maxine Patterson
of Barbourville in a home
on Cougar Edge Road.
The release also states
that the incident occurred
after Mason and Patterson’s daughter, Becky
Grubbs, had been in an
altercation.
Mason was transported to the Knox County
Hospital and then flown to
the University of Tennessee Medical Center where
he is listed in serious, but
stable, condition.
No arrests were made.
The case will be taken
to the Knox County Grand
Jury.
Detective Jacob Wilson
is in charge of the investigation.

Kentucky law enforcement just
lost one of its best. Friends and
family, as well as law enforcement
officers across Kentucky mourn
the loss of long- time sheriff ’s
deputy Shirley (Shirl) Elliott, who
passed away May 6.
Shirl Elliott married Edna Disney
in 1959 and the two were blessed
with three children, the late Eddie
Elliot, Janie Swords and John
Elliott.
“Dad was a prankster,” said his
daughter Janie. “He liked to pay
practical jokes on you. He loved
to tell stories about everybody in
the county. He’d tell about how it
was in the old days. I knew every
one of his stories by heart as I had
heard them over and over again.
But each time I heard a story, it
was as if I were hearing it for the
first time.
He really liked to laugh, and
every kid in this county called him
Pappaw Shirl. That’s just the way
he was. He loved people.”
Shirl married Nikki Sowders in
2001, and the two were together
up until his passing on May 6. With
Shirl’s marriage to Nikki, two more
adult children were added to the
family, Brent Sowders and Melissa
Sowders Shepherd.
“Shirl was such a loving person, and treated everybody with
respect,” said his wife Nikki. “He
wanted everybody to have a good
life, and we did. We enjoyed each
other.”
Elliott grew up in Artemus
and attended school at Artemus
Elementary before joining his dad,
Bob Elliott, in the coalmines.
“When I was a boy, Shirl would
always acknowledge me just as
he would any adult,” said Elliott’s
The city council members gave the go-ahead for
Police Chief Winston Tye
to sell surplus items online
(rather than using an
auction service that would
require fees, percentage of
sales, etc…). Items to be
sold include a ’05 Dodge
Ram and a 4-door Infiniti.
The city’s budget of
$4,762,520 was approved.
The city will publish a detailed report as to how this
money is allocated within
the city budget.

Powerful people to settle statewide debate
Will you be one?
The sums are huge!
With way over $11 million* in receipts reported
from just four of the major candidates so far, this
will be one of the most
expensive governor races
in Kentucky history! And
the governor’s race is
just one of four statewide
races on the ballot for
republicans, while democrats will face choices
in three contests. The issues are many, complex
and impact every single
Kentuckian.
Yet, projections are less
than 20% will bother to
vote. So, if you are read-
ing this and vote next
Tuesday, you are one of
the few in this state to
have power.
Especially, if you are
a republican, your vote
and influence could be
huge. That’s because the
race to be the republican
nominee for governor,
according to polls, has
three candidates neck
and neck in the sprint
to next Tuesday’s finish.
Matt Bevin, James Comer
and Hal Heiner are only
a couple of percentage
points apart.
Bevin and Heiner are
both millionaire businessmen. Both are from
From the

Jefferson County. Comer
is the current Commissioner of Agriculture. He
is a former state legislator, and is a farmer from
Thompkinsville in Marion
County.
Both Heiner and Comer
have visited Knox County
several times. Perhaps
not coincidentally, they
are the current leaders in
the race.
But who will win?
Recent polls show up
to 20% of republican voters are still undecided.
Given the very light voter
turnout expected, most
pundits say the race is
too close to call. Often,
a close race means whoever has the best “ground
game,” the ability to get
their supporters out to
actually vote, wins.
Heiner personally has
a lot of money. If he invests heavily in local “get
out the vote” efforts, he
could be the nominee.
But since Bevin is also
from Louisville, I think
he splits Heiner’s home
base. And that helps
Comer.
Letter to the Editor
Traffic jam around courthouse
could have been avoided
There was a small traffic jam on
the Courthouse Square at 10 a.m.
on Thursday, May 7. Cars parked
on the inside of the Courthouse
Square blocked a large truck from
going from Knox Street to North
Main Street. All traffic was stopped
for 15 minutes while drivers
moved their cars.
Yes, the cars were parked on
a yellow line, which means NO
PARKING on the inside of the
Courthouse Square. Both private
owned vehicles and law enforcement vehicles park on the yellow
line.
Please do not park here. People
driving trucks, buses, and motor
homes have a hard time getting
past illegally parked vehicles. A
few times in the past, trucks have
run over street light poles that cost
about $1,500 plus labor.
I really appreciate Police Officers
and the difficult job they do so
well. But, parking on this yellow
line encourages everybody to park
here.
I have included a few pictures to
make my point. I am sorry if your
car was at the wrong place at the
wrong time.
Please park in public parking
lots just 200 feet away from the
Courthouse. Out-of-town guests
will notice the difference!!!!!

But polls are not the

THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE n Thursday, May 14, 2015 n 5A
Knox students earn highway road signs
BY MICHAELA MILLER
For The Mountain Advocate
Bell and Knox-Laurel lines.
Zachary Dixon, a sophomore at Knox Central High
School, took the 2014 4-H
Barrel Racing Championship award for the second
year in a row. He finished
first out of 59 racers from
counties across the state
with a winning time of
15.974 seconds. Zach is
the son of Jill and Keith
Wilburn.
“I’ve been racing ever
since I can remember, I
actually don’t even remember starting,” said
Dixon, who has been
racing since he was eight
years old. Dixon competed
in his first barrel racing
competition at the Knox
County Fair in 2008.
Emmaleigh Bargo, a fifth
grade student at Barbourville Independent School,
brought home the 2014
U.S.T.A National Trampo-
TRASH
in it.
“We’re the ones who
have to pay for someone
else’s negligence,” said
Kenningham, who lives
at the bottom the hollow.
They’re not just throwing
their trash over the hill.
They’re tossing it into the
streams where everything
flows downhill and washes up on our property, and
we’re the ones stuck having to clean up the mess.”
Kenningham is particularly concerned about an
especially large dump on
Roaring Fork in Stinking
Creek. Warren says this is
one site where he will have
to apply for a grant through
Kentucky Waste Management to get it cleaned out.
Not only is the fairly old
dump at the bottom of a
steep ravine, but trash is
strewn from the creek bed
to halfway up the 20+ foot
embankment.
“Accessibility and size of
the job are the big determinates of whether we can go
right in and begin cleaning
or apply for a grant to get
the job contracted out,”
Warren explained. “We’ll
bid that particular dump
out because of its size and
poor accessibility. Kentucky
Waste Management will
come down and inspect
the site. Then bid it out for
cleanup. After the work is
done, the state will come
in and inspect to see that it
was done to their specifications. This process usually
takes about three months
or so.”
Copperheads and other
snakes are another problem for the crews trying to
clean up the trash. That is
part of the reason the time
of the year plays such a big
part on when Waste Management begins cleanup
in certain areas. Warren
and his crews prefer to do
most dump work in the fall
when there are less leaves
and a lot less snakes.
“We do litter control
daily,” said Warren. ‘We’ve
already clean up trash
this spring along Possum
Hollow and Ely Hollow
roadsides and over the
embankments. Trash
has been strewn all over
the area. We’re currently
working in the Corbin-Gray
area. After we’re finished
here, we’ll be moving back
into the Girdler area.”
Warren has already spoken with some residents in
the higher elevations that
may or may not have even
realized their trash was
floating downhill with the
waterways. Since then he
has continued to monitor
certain areas to see if any
more trash accumulates in
those areas.
“Once you dump trash
over the embankment or
into the creek bed, you
don’t know what happens
to it,” said Warren. “We
need to take pride in our
city and county and try
to keep our communities
clean. There’s no need to
be throwing trash into the
streams and river, or even
a fast food bag out the
window, for that matter.
If anyone spots an illegal
dump or an area where
trash has accumulated, possibly due to high
waters, please contact the
Knox County Judge Executive’s office at 546-6192.
Someone will return your
call.
Drivers coming into
Knox County are about to
be greeted by some new
road signs bearing the
names of two special Knox
County students. The signs
will honor the students’
incredible achievements
they made in the past year.
Zachary Dixon and Emmaleigh Bargo unveiled their
road signs Tuesday that
will be placed at the Knox-

as well as inmate work-release crews from the Bell
County Forestry Camp,
scouring the area, cleaning
up as many accumulated
trash areas as they can.
“We’re addressing as
many citizens’ concerns
as quickly as we can, but
it’s a really big job trying
to cover a whole county,”
said Warren. “This year is
particularly bad with all the
flooding.”
Immediate attention is
being paid to trash just off
the roads or over embankments that the crews
can safely reach. Sometimes, however, getting
to a dumpsite is the real
problem.
“If a location is too hard
or too dangerous to take a
crew, we have to take the
time to rethink how and
when the best time is to
get to it,” said Warren. “We
can get a crew down into
most of these hollows, but
we have to have the right
equipment at the right
time. And that’s just not
always plausible. Especially, once we get down there
and realize just how much
there is to carry out.”
Warren said his crews
have gone in to clear out
one dumpsite only to find
scores of lumber left over
from a remodeling project,
as well as the kitchen sink.
Stinking Creek resident
John Kenningham has
been working to get his
area cleaned ever since
his child picked up a mudfilled water bottle with a
used syringe and needle
line Championship award.
She is the daughter of Michael and Pamela Bargo.

Department’s funds.
Baker said, “We will use
this money to help keep
up the 22 miles of streets
and 14 miles of sidewalks
within Barbourville’s city
limits.” He pointed out that
last year’s amount was
$30,000.
The local GFWC of Barbourville was present and
in numbers. Susie Dunaway spoke for the group.
“We have noticed that
there is not one piece
of handicap approved
playground equipment in
the entire Knox County
area. We have been saving
our money and would like
to purchase some. If we
do that, we ask the city if
they will install or have it
installed to it proper specifications.”
Mayor Thompson noted
that all council members
were shaking their heads

Thompson stated,

R. Frith, was from Pineville,
his mother, Linda “Sissy”
Cox Barnett, is from nearby Gray. She later married
Bobby Hammons, a Barbourville native.
Deputy Frith is delighted
to be in Knox County.
“It’s a busy county,”
said Frith, “but I enjoy it
because I get to meet so
many new people.”
Frith is a self-proclaimed
“people person.” This, he
says, is the whole reason
he chose this career.
“I love working with the
community,” he said. “I
love working with people
and doing whatever I can
to help them.”
Deputy Frith began his
career in 2000 as a corrections officer at the Kentucky State Reformatory
Prison in La Grange until
2003, but that was just the
beginning. From there,
he landed a job at Pine
Mountain State Park as a
Park Ranger. While working at Pine Mountain, Frith
graduated from the Police
Academy through the Department of Criminal Justice Training in Richmond.
In 2004, he joined the Bell
County Sheriff ’s Department, where he remained
until December 2014.
Frith speaks fondly of his
time with Bell Co. Sher-
iff ’s Department, “Bruce
(Bennett), the sheriff in
Bell Co., was like family,
but now Mike (Smith) has
welcomed me into this
new family.”
Deputy Frith is looking
forward to a long career
with Knox County law
enforcement and with
Sheriff Mike Smith, saying
“I like the way Mike runs
the department. He wants
friendly deputies out helping the community, and
that’s what I like. It feels
like home.”

wife, Lisa have two daughters, Alex Frith, 22, and

“When I grew up and
started practicing law, as
a young insecure attorney,
Shirl said to me, ‘You need
anything, you let me know.
I will take care of you.
Don’t be nervous about
nothing.’
“He couldn’t give me any
legal advice,” Castle added, “but he could always

(following proper codes/
guidelines).
Barbourville Police Chief,
Winston Tye, brought one
of the eight new mobile
computers that his department wants to purchase
(with a $10,000 assist from
the Coal Severance Fund).
Tye listed numerous pluses
that the mobile units
would create.
“No more handwritten
citations, the officer can
take it into a crime scene
and input the information
directly into the computer. That same officer can
drive by city hall, and the
information will upload
wirelessly. Officers will
have access to a lot more
information from inside
their vehicles. Less paperwork means more time to
patrol.”
Tye was given the go
ahead for the purchase.
Denise Wainscott, Tourism Director, said that 30
teams from all over the
United States had already
signed up for the BBQ
competition June 19-20.
She pointed out live music
would be a part of the
event. Several bands will
be present, and the Jimmy
Rose band will be the
highlight. A round of applause was received when
she let everyone know that
vendors would be present
selling barbecue foods.
She also wished to get
the word out that the
Farmer’s Market opened
Thursday, May 7. She said,
“The market is on the road
that drives right past Wendy’s towards the hospital. I
call it Tremco Road.”
The meeting closed with
a short discussion about
a softball league being
held in Barbourville. Mayor
Thompson told the crowd
and the council, “I would
like to have softball being
played on our fields. We
have put the word out that
it would be $250 per team
to play. Almost no one
called. We then told the
community that a league
could form and play for
free (minus the lights at
night) if they were willing
to play days and evenings.
No one called. We are
going to maintain the fields
no matter what. I don’t
know what else to do.”

was always great having a
friendly face in the courtroom. He would put me at
ease. That meant a lot to
me.”
Sometime in the early
70s, Elliott signed up with
the Barbourville Police
Force and finally joined the
Knox County’s Sheriff ’s
Department, where he remained a deputy with the
department until he retired
in 2008.
“Shirl was one of the
best police officers I’ve
ever known,” said Castle.
“Most people are afraid of
police officers, but even
the defendants respected
him. Shirl had a gentle way
about him. He could just
talk to them and call them
down without mistreating
them. He just had that way
about him. He’s the type
new officers would want
to pattern their careers
after.”
Elliott was laid to rest
Sunday at the Burch-Alford
Cemetery in Artemus.

B’ville School makes serious budget cuts
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
Editor
No one at Barbourville Independent School Board’s May
meeting was very happy with
the results, but school budget
cuts simply had to be made.
Superintendent Larry Warren
gave his report and, in the end,
one office staffer, five instructional assistants and one custodial supervisor’s job were abolished, and three teachers were
laid off. Five custodians were
cut 10 workdays, and their vacations were eliminated. Another
11 staff members had workdays
cut ranging from 3-50 days.
Ed Smith, vice chairman of the
board, asked the superintendent
for his rational behind the three
teachers’ jobs being cut.
“I thought we agreed not to
cut any teachers’ jobs,” he said.
“Am I wrong, or did we not
agree as a board to keep all our
teachers?”
“It was an executive decision,”
Warren told him. “There will be
no one more cheerful than Larry
Warren if we could find a way to

keep them, but we’re fighting to
stay in the black. If you can guarantee me a balanced budget
next year, we can revoke those
layoffs.
“By the end of May, we should
know what we’re getting from
the state. Then we should be
able to get a better handle on
things.”
Warren added that everyone
laid off would be added to the
school’s substitute list.
In all, the school will be saving
about $350,000.
“This brings us in range of
our budget goal,” said Beulah
Campbell, the school’s finance
officer.
The school has until the end
of May to submit a final tentative
budget to the state.
The board also:
• approved a tentative 2015-16
school calendar to run Aug. 6,
2015, through May 26, 2016.
• tabled a discussion on
approving coaches’ position and
salary.
• awarded Cloyd & Associates
the 2014-2015 audit contract.
• took no action awarding
student insurance.
• renewed insurance with
Roeding Group.
• renewed the occupational
therapy services with Tammy
Hudson.
• renewed the physical therapy services contract with Anne
Pederson.
• renewed the speech contract with Susan Johns.
• renewed the vision contract
with Joy Roark.
• agreed the board could
not take action on the FYRSC
director’s extended days, which
is under a separate contract.
The board voted to abide by the
current contract.
• set Tuesday, May 26, at 6
p.m. for a Special Called Meeting to approve the 2015-2016

Farmer’s Market opens; now taking SNAP benefits
Photos by Michaela Miller
The community gathered at the first Knox County Farmer’s Market of the year on Thursday
evening at its new home in front of the Knox County Extension Office.
A new feature being added to this year’s market is the accepting of WIC, as well as debit,
credit, and SNAP benefit cards. However, due to some technical problems, this was not practiced Thursday, but organizers are optimistic the program will be up and ready by the next
market. Although fresh produce is not yet ready to be harvested, flowers, food, shaved ice,
home décor, organic soaps and lotions, homemade baskets and many more items could be
found at Thursday’s market. The grand opening of the Farmer’s Market will be held on May
28.

Knox Co. daycare Barbourville Water earns Gold Seal rating
owner enters plea
in abuse case
SPECIAL TO THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE
Courtesy of WKYT News Staff
The Knox County daycare owner, arrested by
Kentucky State Police in
April, entered an Alford plea
Thursday morning in Knox
District Court.
In an Alford Plea, the
criminal defendant does not
admit the act, but admits
that the prosecution could
likely prove the charge.
State Police arrested Tracy
Fore April 10 after people at
the Rainbows and Lollipops
daycare said Fore sat on a
child in order to get him to
sleep. An employee took a
photo of the incident.
Troopers charged Fore
with first-degree criminal
abuse, a felony. On Thursday, prosecutors offered her
a plea deal that amended
the charge third-degree
criminal abuse, a misdemeanor.
As part of the plea, Fore
will have to pay a $133 fine.
She’s also on 12-months
probation and will have to
serve 180 days in jail if she
gets into
any legal
trouble
during that
time. The
agreement
says Fore
Tracy Fore
cannot
have contact with the
daycare in question and
cannot own one. She’s also
banned from having contact
with the employee who
took the photo, and she’s
agreed to cooperate with a
state investigation into the
incident.
Fore’s husband, Billy Fore,
still faces charges in a related incident. Police charged
him after he allegedly called
the daycare after his wife’s
arrest, demanding to know
who took the photo of his
wife sitting on the child.
Prosecutors say he made
a threat when he made that
phone call. His case is set
to go before a Knox County
grand jury.

Knox teen’s life honored in celebration and donation
DEAN MANNING
For The Mountain Advocate
The Knox Whitley
Animal Shelter was the
beneficiary of a fundraising effort by the family of a
Knox County teen who lost
his life in an automobile
accident on Feb. 23.
Jathan Patterson’s mother, Virgie Millis, came to
the shelter on Busy Lane
in Corbin Friday afternoon
where she along with
other family members and
friends presented shelter
officials with a check for
$5,100 that was raised
through a gofundme.com
effort.
“We wanted some good
to come from Jathan’s
death,” Mills said, noting
that Patterson enjoyed
coming to the shelter
and socializing with the
animals as part of the
effort to make them more
adoptable.
“The puppy room was
his favorite place,” Mills
said as she cuddled one
of approximately a dozen
puppies housed in the
room that has been dedicated to her son.
Mills said her son loved all
kinds of animals, including
frogs and insects and even
had a pet snake at home.
Mills said it was her
sister, Tina Sowders, who
came up with the idea
of raising money for the
shelter through a gofundme effort.
“We wrestled with the
amount,” Mills said, noting
the family initially considered $500 and then $1,000.
Through word of mouth
and Facebook, Mills and
the family explained what
they wanted to do for
Jathan and 190 people
have responded, so far.
“Jathan had a real love
and compassion for animals, a truce compassion
for strays and a genuine
fascination for wildlife,”
Sowders said. “Many of our
happiest memories are of
Jathan with his many pets.”
The account was established April 6 and within 24
hours it had already raised
more than $1,000.
“We were very surprised,” Mills admitted,
adding that donations will
continue to be accepted
with the proceeds going to
the animal shelter.
Shelter Director Deanna
Meyers said shelter officials wanted to find a way
to recognize Jathan for his
work at the shelter and
thank the family for their
continued efforts on behalf
of the shelter.
“We wanted to make
something so Jathan will
always be part of the Knox
Whitley Animal Shelter,”
Meyers said.

into the puppy room
denotes that the room
is dedicated in Jathan’s
memory and also bears his
picture.
Meyers said the donation, along with any future
donations through the
account, will help fund the
ongoing shelter operations
and/or further construction.
Mary Anne Smith, president of the shelter board,
said while the shelter is
open at the new facility
following the 2013 fire that
destroyed the shelter in
Woodbine, officials have a
list of additions they would
like to make as the money
becomes available.
High on the list is a dog
park where the shelter
dogs may be taken and
permitted to run.
Meyers said the accounts at Forcht Bank,
Hometown Bank and
Community Trust Bank
that were established to
receive donations to the
shelter following the fire,
remain active.
In addition, the shelter is
always in need of pet food,
cat litter, blankets, pillow
cases, towels, pet toys, pet
bowls and other items.
All donations to the
shelter are tax deductible. More information is
available at the shelter’s
website, www.kwas.org or
on Facebook Knox-Whitley
Animal Shelter.
Jathan’s gofundme account also remains active.

In a solemn Friday afternoon ceremony, Barbourville 7th
and 8th grade students honored their late classmate, Jathan
Patterson with a balloon release. Each balloon had a personalized message or birthday wish for Jathan. Following the
ceremony, Jathan Patterson’s family presented a check to
the Knox-Whitley Animal Shelter in his memory. The shelter,
in turn, named the facility’s puppy room after Jathan, who
was an advocate for all animals, both domestic and wild.

What Every Knee Arthritis Sufferer Should Know
About This Often Successful Medical Treatment
The Advanced Medical Treatment Every Knee Arthritis Sufferer Needs To Know Before Thinking About Knee Replacement Surgery
Fayette County - If you
suffer with knee arthritis
pain, you have probably
already tried many treatments... especially countless pain medications.
Experienced doctors understand that, even though
pain medications such as
anti-inflammatory pain pills
are part of the recommended early treatment plan for
knee arthritis pain...they are
rarely the answer.
In most cases they have
minimal results (if any) and
have a laundry list of potential side effects. Some
being serious and even life
threatening.
Are There Any
Better Options?
Thankfully, advancements in science and technology come extremely
fast. And now there is a
very good option for knee
arthritis to help relieve the
pain.
An option that a lot of
knee arthritis sufferers
have never heard of...and
even worse... have not been
properly informed about.
Before we get into the
actual treatment, please understand this...
Osteo Relief Institute is a
real medical clinic that has
treated thousands of knee
arthritis sufferers. Patients
travel from all over the
country to be treated at their
clinic because they want
the best medical treatments
available.
What you are about to
discover is a REAL medical
treatment. Not a miracle
cure you see on infomercials or on the internet.
Know this fact: There
is no cure for arthritis. But
there is this treatment that...
when performed correctly
and with the proper technology... has already helped
thousands of knee arthritis
sufferers - possibly just like
you.
Even if you have heard
of this treatment - or even
tried it without good results - please read this. You
will find out why it may not
have worked for you and
how you may be able to get
much better results.
What is This
Treatment?
This treatment is called
viscosupplementation. And
it has gained quite a bit of
popularity in recent years
and it has gotten mixed results for a couple of reasons.
But before we get into
that, here’s what you need
to know about viscosupplementation.
When you have arthritis,
you suffer a decrease in the
cushioning and lubricating
fluids in your knee. In other
words, your knee joint basically “dries up.”
The lubricating fluid that
decreases is called “synovial fluid.”
Pharmaceutical companies (with the help of
scientists) can now make
natural synovial fluid gellike compounds that, during
viscosupplementation treatments...doctors can precisely introduce directly into the
knee and other joints.
This helps replace the
lubricating fluid to the knee
joint - allowing it to move
more freely and smoothly
and often decreasing or
even eliminating the pain.
What Results
Can Be Expected?
Like all medical treatments, the results vary and
can not be predicted. But
many knee arthritis sufferers get dramatic results. It is
not uncommon for patients
to either postpone knee
replacement surgery for
years... or even permanently
cancel it.
But There
Is A BIG Problem
The key is the treatment
must be EXTREMELY
PRECISE. If the injection
is slightly off, the medication will not get into the
knee joint and the treatment
will not work.
That’s why the experts
at Osteo Relief Institute use
advanced digital imaging so
Advanced Imaging Allows Doctors To Pin-Point
Treatments And Relieve Knee Arthritis Pain
Science rescues knee arthritis sufferers? Research shows joint injections done
without advanced imaging misses the joint about 30% of the time. Now doctors can
put lubricating fluid directly into the arthritic joint that may alleviate pain and restore
function to many.
they can see the medicine
going directly into the knee
joint during the treatment.
Research shows that doctors performing joint injections without imaging miss
the joint as much as 30% of
the time.
If you have tried viscosupplementation without
this special digital imaging
without good results - this
may be why.
That’s why Osteo Relief
Institute takes it even one
step further. They do not
just use one step process of
advanced imaging during
treatment - they use two in
their “double confirmation”
process. This is to ensure
patients get the best possible results.
Another Important
Factor
Viscosupplementation
medications also come in
several different brands and
chemical make-ups.
Just like all medications,
some people respond better
to some than others. While
many doctors only use one
brand, the experts at Osteo
Relief Institute use several
and great effort is taken to
figure out what the best one
for YOU is.
One last thing: The
experts at Osteo Relief Institute have found that the
earlier you start Viscosupplementation the better.
This is most likely because the longer you wait
- the more joint destruction
takes place.
That’s why Osteo Relief
is now seeing so many patients as young as 45.
Summary: If you have
knee arthritis pain and have
not tried Viscosupplementation, you should look into it
as soon as possible.
If you have tried it without good results, you may
still be able to get great results with the proper imaging and specific medication
Who Should
Try This Treatment?
Not everyone is a candidate for this treatment. But
if you are, there is a good
chance you may relieve
some... or possibly all of
your pain.
You are a potential candidate for this treatment if you
have knee pain and have not
gotten good results from anti-inflammatory medication
or other common arthritis
treatments.
Especially if you have already tried viscosupplementation without good results.
The best way to tell if you
are a good candidate for this
treatment is to be screened
by one of the doctors at
Lexington, KY.
What To Do Next If You
Are In Pain:
Your Invitation
Osteo Relief Institute
offers a limited number of
complimentary knee arthritis treatment screenings
every month. These screenings are a way for knee arthritis sufferers to get some
of their questions answered
and see if they are a candidate for this treatment. If
you would like a complimentary screening, just call
606-824-9155 and tell the
scheduling specialist who
answers the phone, “I would
like a complimentary knee
arthritis screening.”
The screenings fill up
fast every month. If you do
not call in time to get one
this month, the specialist
will schedule you for next
month.
This screening is no cost
and no obligation.
This treatment is covered
by many insurance plans
and Medicare.

Knox Middle softball slays Green Dragons
BY DENNIS MILLS
For The Mountain Advocate
The Knox Couty Middle
School softball team used
a 22-run first inning to defeat the Harlan City Green
Dragons by a score of 22-7.
Knox gave up a single run
in the top of the first inning
by allowing three straight
walks to load the bases before Maria Tye caught a line
drive shot and picked off
the third base runner for a
double play. The Dragons’
base runner scored on a
wild pitch before being
struck out to end the top of
inning and take a 0-1 lead.
The Panthers made two
quick outs during the bottom of the first before their
bats got hot and strung together 22 straight runs to
take a 22-1 lead at the end
of one.
Knox led in the first with
a triple and a single by Raley Halcomb that resulted
in four RBI’s. Outfielder
Jayci Beth Corey connected for three singles and a
RBI while Hannah Smith
hit for a single and two
RBI’s. Morgan Warren had
a single and a double that

For The Mountain Advocate
Union College Head
Golf Coach Tony Carruba is looking forward to
having two Barbourville
High School golfers on
campus next year. Jared Franklin and Collin
Grubb signed last week
to attend Union College
for the 2015-16 academic
year to play golf.
BHS Head Golf Coach
Dennis Messer said that
both players had brought
a lot of good to the Tiger
program over the last
four years. “I am proud
of these boys. They have
shown a lot of dedication
to this sport and to their
school,” stated Messer.
“They will be good student athletes at Union.”
Tony Carruba, Union College’s Head Golf Coach,
added, “They both have a
ton of potential, and I look
forward to seeing what
they can do at the next level.”
“I am glad that I get to be
the guy that gets to guide
them on their path to get
a degree and to become a
better golfer,” stated Carruba.
At top, Barbourville Tiger Matthew Dixon pulls down a throw
from Corey Cobb during a 7-1 victory over Lynn Camp last
week. The Tigers improved their record to 13-12 for the season with the win. Above, Lynn Camp’s Tyler Emery fields a

giving up only three hits,
one walk and one unearned run.
The Tigers took an early
1-0 lead in the first inning
when Grubb drove a 2-0
pitch to right field for a triple that scored Tate Carter
who had reached base on
an infield single earlier in
the inning.
Grubb pitched a no-hitter through four innings
while Barbourville continued to connect at the base
against Lynn Camp Pitcher
Caleb Gray.
Tate Carter and Bradley
Warren hit singles off of
Gray in the bottom of the
third that allowed a 2-out,
2-RBI single down the first
base line by Corey Cobb to
extend the score to 3-0.
The Wildcats managed
to put their single run on
the board in the top of
the fifth inning as Grubb’s
no-hitter was extinguised
by a lead-off single by
Lynn Camp’s Nathan Garlen. The Wildcats added a
second hit by Dylan Guinn
for a 3-1 deficit at the end
of five innings.
Barbourville’s Grubb
struck out three batters in
the final two innings while
the Tigers on offense with
the help of a 2-RBI single
from Tate Cater in the sixth
inning held off Lynn Camp
for a 7-1 victory.
The Tigers will finish off
the regular season with
three consecutive games
May 13-May 15 against
Clay County, Harlan and
Whitley County before
opening up 51st District

BY DENNIS MILLS
For The Mountain Advocate
Knox Central High School
senior Brian Gibbs signed last
week to swim the 2015-16
school year for the University of
the Cumberlands.
Gibbs was a late entry to the
sport of swimming, but has developed his talents over the last
few years to earn a spot on UC’s
team.
Assistant Knox Central Swim
coach Eddie Clement jokingly said that Brian couldn’t even
swim two years ago.
“The life guard jumped in to
save him, but Brian was too big
and, after drowning, we brought
him back to life and he can now
swim.”
This may have been a bit of
an exaggeration but everyone
agrees that Brian has come a
long way in the past few years as
it pertains to competitive swimming.
“He started out in the kiddie lane with the six and seven
year olds for several months
just trying to learn to swim and
breathe,” added Knox Central
Head Coach Dee Dole. “Brian
has worked really hard over the
last two seasons to get to this
point in his swimming career.”
Gibbs has impressed everyone with his hard work ethic
and his ability to take to the sport
in a short amount of time.
Jessica Gibbs, Brian’s mother,
said that her son continues to
amaze her.
“This is not a sport a few years
ago that I thought he would be
interested in or even pursure for
a college career,” she said. “Every time I turn around, he amazes me. He amazes me in his love
for God and his love for wanting
to help others.”
“We are truely blessed that
he is here and going to Cumberlands. We know Cumberlands
is a very spiritual based college
campus, and I think that is what
attracted Brian.”
Brian’s dad, Mark Gibbs, added, “Brian has been my life since
I was 15 years old. First and
foremost, we want to push him
toward Christ. I’ve told him the
whole time to pray about which
way you need to go. His mother and I just want him to keep
pressing on.”
Univeristy of the Cumberlands
Head Swim Coach Eric Skelly is
very excited to have Gibbs on his
team for next year. Skelly said, “I
am very happy to be adding Brian to the UC family. He is going to
be an incredible fit for what we
have built at the University. All of
the swimmers I have coached
from Knox County, I have nothing but praise for them.”
“I am really excited to see
what Brian can do next year. He
does not have a lot of experience
in competitive swimming, but
he has come a long way. There
is a lot of untapped potential in
Brian. He will be an incredible
fit for us (as a sprinter),” added
Skelly.

This blast of summer weather we have endured the last

summer, I think of blackberries, mostly served up in a rich
cobbler with a dollop of vanilla ice cream. Sounds good,
right? This recipe will fuffill your
hearts desire of this annual berry bliss! The best part is, if you
don’t want the hassle of picking
the berries, you can use frozen
ones from the store.

Be a memory keeper
We have a honeysuckle
tree in the back yard in full
bloom, and the sweet scent
takes me back to my childhood. I take a deep breath,
close my eyes and return
to a special place and time
when wild honeysuckle vine
covers the fence behind our
house on the lane. If I try
hard to listen, the recall of
a whippoorwill is luring me
back to play in the old pasture. The pasture is full of
adventure, the cool morning
air vibrates with the crocking and humming of insect
living there.
The sudden cool breeze is
soothing to my young face…
The dew from the tall pasture grass is wet to my bare
feet as I strike out to walk the
pasture. The wild field flowers spread as far as my eyes
can see, like a Monet Painting. A sudden hush falls over
the pond as my presence
invades the rhythm of the
moment. Dragonflies skim
the surface of the pond water as I settle down watching
the ripples from the whirl of
their wings. I see tadpoles
darting around the cattails
plants. A passion of mine is
to study and watch the tadpoles turn into frogs… As I sit
by the pond, I’m lost in the
moment savoring the peace
Memories
Mildred Higgins
and quiet of the morning.
Soon the pasture will echo
with playful laughter when
my younger brothers join
me to play… The call of the
whippoorwill beckons me
to follow it across the pasture nearer the woods, a
place where the wildflowers
grow.. I venture there from
time to time in search of
ruffled trilliums, wild violets,
jack-in-the-pulpit nestled in
the wild fern that grow close
to the creek.
The whippoorwill calls
and waits for my answer as I
mimic its call. With the passing of time it is comforting to
me to return to a place that
remains unchanged in my
memory since childhood.
Members of my family call
me “the memory keeper”
and on occasion will write
to ask me about an event or
special happening from the
past. Most of the time, I recall
the event and will remind
them of what they were doing at the age and stage in
question… I can thank my
grandpa Hammons for setting the example of keeping
a daily journal, and I have
practiced for most of my life
to follow his example.
I encourage everyone to
write down as many memories and special events as
possible. Even the one you
think dull or not important.
However dull, the time of
one day might turn out to be
one of the best memories,
as you grow older.
Be the family memory
keeper. Family stories show
history, as it is a procession
of interlocking lives of families and their place in time.
Millie’s thought for today:
We are drawn together by
sharing common experiences. I say often to enjoy the
little things, for one day you
may look back and realize
they were the big things.
Sometimes a person has
to go back, really back, to
have a sense and understanding of all that’s gone by
to make them who they are.
In huge of age, I find peace
in the memory of time spent
in the pastureland where
the water ran clear and my
imagination took me to places of beauty just across the
fence behind our house.

Hidden Pictures
Reflections for
Mother’s Day
“Ma-ma, Ma-ma” was
probably one of the first
sounds I made that sounded like a word. I am sure
I learned right away that
sound brought a smiling
face. There were several
smiling faces urging me to
say “ma-ma” but there was
one in particular that made
me want to say “ma-ma.”
There were grandmothers,
aunts, brothers and even
a fathern but I knew who
fed me, cuddled me and
saw to my comfort. By the
time I had learned that saying “ma-ma” brought me
that smiling face, there was
a little sister to go along
with my older brothers.
Even though there were
others competing for that
attention, I still worked on
mastering that sound.
Later I learned the difference between “mama,” “mama” and a new
sound, “Mommy.” Mama
was the sound I learned
to make when I needed
her attention. But when
I needed extra attention
or competed attention, it
became “Mommy.” It was
also the word that became
important when I was
talking about my moth-

er to my friends and others. That lasted the eight
years through elementary school. I had learned
that saying “Mommy” did
not always get a smiling
face. She was not only my
mother, but a busy mother
with other children, a farmer’s wife, the housekeeper
and chief cook and played
an important part in the
community. I had to learn I
wasn’t the center of her life
but rather a valuable part.
Then came high school
years when I learned to say
M-o-t-h-e-r, pulling out the
sound in exasperation—
she just didn’t catch on.
The longer I was in high
school the longer I seemed
to be able to stretch out
that sound. Didn’t she understand I had a life of my
own to live?
As a college freshman,
freedom to make my
own decisions, freedom
from the mother hen. But
where was she when I had
to make some tough decisions from what dress
to buy to which courses I
should take. Then all too
soon I found myself out in
the real world with some
real-life decisions to make.
Then I found myself using
all the sounds, “Ma-ma,
Mama, and even a very appreciative Mother” again. I
now know that there were
times and decisions that I
made that not only brought
a frown but also tears to
my Mother’s face.
By now my mother
would have celebrated 106
Mother’s Days and I have
the opportunity to celebrate this day with not only
children and grandchildren but also great grandchildren.

BY JAY STANCIL
For the Mountain Advocate
A number of Union
College students
joined forces with the
Knox-Whitley Animal
Shelter and Bed & Biscuit pet boarding to turn
a tragedy into a positive.
In February, Union
College lost a valued
member of its family
when Dr. Sarah Hendrix
and other members of
her family died as part of
a heartbreaking event.
Discovered following the
incident were the three
traumatized family’s
pets – one dog (Buddy)
and two cats (Button
and Holly). Whitley
County Animal Control
Officer Cecil Powers
managed to remove
Buddy and take him to
the Knox-Whitley Animal
Shelter. The two cats
were more elusive and
remained in the home,
but were eventually rescued, as well.
The removal of Buddy
was difficult as he was
exhibiting very aggressive behavior, which
continued upon Buddy’s
arrival at the shelter. Two
colleagues of Dr. Hendrix
arrived at a plan to transfer Buddy to the Bed &
Biscuit Boarding facility,
owned and operated
The southern gospel quartet, The Dixie Melody Boys, will be featuerd Sunday morning, May
17 at Springfield Baptist Church in Bimble.
Special to the Mountain Advocate
by Billie Brown, since
he had been boarded
there before. The hope
was that Buddy would
calm down and become
adoptable.
Due to the extreme
winter weather, Buddy’s
transfer was delayed,
which allowed the
shelter staff (consisting
of Lee Reichard, Ashley
Wyatt, Bri Hughett, Melissa McElrow and Linda
Teague), to work with
him. During that time,
Buddy became a friendly, non-aggressive dog.
Deanna Myers, Director
of the Knox-Whitley
Shelter, indicated that
she was amazed at how
Buddy was transformed
from wanting to do harm
to a dog that wanted to
be loved.
Meanwhile, back on
campus, Union College
students, primarily members representing the
Student Government Association and Common
Partners (now known
as the Center for Civic
Engagement), wanted
to do something for the
Hendrix family during
this difficult time, and
began raising money to
help pay for the boarding
and care of the Hendrix’s pets.
During the nearly two
weeks of heavy snow in
February, Union students
James Becknell, Michael
Davenport, Stefanie
Edgell, Rebekah Griffith,
Kenny Hughes, Tyler
Priest, Caleb Spurlock,
Jacob Spurlock, Maggie
Watkins, and Ellie Weaver initiated a residential
snow removal service.
Their efforts resulted in
raising $400, more than
enough to pay for Buddy’s boarding, a donation to the Knox-Whitley
Animal Shelter and to
a newly established Dr.
Sarah Hendrix Endowed
Scholarship Fund.
Because of the combined efforts of the
students, the shelter, and
Ms. Brown, Buddy and
Button have been adopted into loving homes
and Holly, while still in
foster care will be going
to a “forever home” very
soon. Thanks to the hard
work and caring of very
special people some
good has come out of
this tragedy.
Contributions to the Dr.
Sarah Hendrix Endowed
Scholarship Fund can be
made at www.unionky.

be sent to: 66 Busy Lane,
Corbin, KY 40701.
Welcome, Christopher William!
Faith Ashley Mills and William Lee Smith welcome with love and joy their baby boy, Christopher William Smith. Christopher was born March 12, 2015, at 8:30 a.m. at Baptist Health
Corbin. He weighed 6 pounds 8 ounces and was 19 inches long. Christopher joins his
three big brothers, Travis, Cameron and Brandon Mills. He is also welcomed by proud
grandparents Ralph and Janice Marcum, Wendell and Angie Smith and Angela Smith,

One of Gospel music’s
most popular quartets, The
Dixie Melody Boys, will be
featured at the Springfield
Baptist Church in Bimble,
on Sunday, May 17. The
Quartet will share their
unique, four-part harmony
during the 11 a.m. service. Since organizing over
five decades ago, The Dixie
Melody Boys have enjoyed
much success, including a
Grammy nomination and
numerous Fan Award nominations from The Singing
News Magazine, Southern
Gospel Music’s leading fan
and trade publication. Hit
releases have flowed their
way in bunches, including
recent releases such as
“I’ll Be Living That Way,”
“I Won’t Compromise,”
“Welcome Home,” “Antioch Church Choir” and
“I’m One Of Them.” The
thrill and excitement of
performing experienced
by each group member
night after night is most evident at each concert. Their
goal of delivering a firstclass performance filled
with excitement, energy
and lots of great traditional, Southern Gospel Music
are traits which have been
instilled in each member
by group leader Ed O’Neal, a 50-year Gospel Music
veteran, who was inducted
into the Southern Gospel
Music Association Hall of
Fame in 2004. These characteristics, united with
their desire to never compromise their responsibility to spread the Gospel
through Southern Gospel
Music in a professional
manner have allowed The
Dixie Melody Boys to firmly establish a place at the
forefront of Southern Gospel Music. The group’s energy and excitement, coupled with their exceptional
vocal blend is appealing to
audiences of all ages, creating an exciting evening of
musical pleasure.
