Main Street to host
Union College
Tailgate events
BY ANDY POWELL
For the Mountain Advocate
For Union’s Bulldogs, it
is football season. With
football season comes
tailgaters. For Union
College fans in Barbourville, tailgating now means
taking over downtown on
game day.
The Barbourville Main
Street committee has
announced the creation of
Union Hometown Tailgate.
The event is designed to
support Union athletics
while promoting businesses throughout Barbourville.
“When you go to
Lexington for a game
on Saturday, people join
together everywhere to
celebrate their team and
their community,” said
Monica Clouse, Union College Director of Community & Foundation Relations.
Clouse also serves on the
Main Street committee.
“We want to create the
same atmosphere in Barbourville to build excitement for our town and our
team.”
Clouse said the idea for
the event was pitched to
the Main Street committee
by Chad Wagner, a downtown business owner
and sheriff ’s deputy. The
committee then ran with
the idea.
Union Hometown Tailgate will be held on October 3 when the Bulldogs
take on Lindsey Wilson
College. The tailgate will
begin at noon and will be
held downtown on the
square. Local businesses
will host special game day
promotions, food vendors
will set up on the square,

BROKEN WINDOWS AMONG DAMAGE
BY EMILY BAKER

A series of attempted breakins occurred early Friday
morning to various businesses
throughout Barbourville. Pope
Lumber and Bowling Family
Pharmacy were among the
victims. The incidents were all
reported around 3-4 a.m.
“On the security camera foot-
age we saw someone throw a
brick at our front door from a
vehicle,” said Kristen Bowling,
Co-owner of Bowling Family
Pharmacy, “they didn’t even
get out of the car.”
Fortunately, only minimum
damage was sustained to the
pharmacy door.

Special to the Mountain Advocate
Mary Alice Lay, the 2015 Daniel
Boone Festival Grand Marshal,
has long been the face of Union
College, the person most local
people think of as the individual
who best represents the values
and traditions of the college. As
the longest serving active teacher
and Senior Faculty member for
many years, she taught at the
college for 54 years and won
many awards and honors for
excellence in teaching.
As she retires this year from
the college, Ms. Lay receives
this tribute in recognition of
her years of public service.
Born in Barbourville of a
long line of Knox Countians,
Ms. Lay has been active
in local school education
through her student teachers
and is a prominent member
of her church and numerous civic organizations. After
graduating from Barbourville

Stivers Board
asks Tourism for
more money
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
Editor
The Stivers Aquatic & Wellness Center
has once again asked for more money from
the Barbourville Tourism Commission. This
time, the request is for $20,000.
In August 2014, the Stivers Board requested a stipend of $5,000 a month. The
Tourism Commission finally settled on a
one-time $15,000 donation with $5,000
earmarked for a membership drive. The
commission also expected a monthly report
from the center specifying exactly where
the money was being spent.
The Stivers Board explained in a Sept.
14 letter to the Tourism Commission that
$15,000 will be used for multiple promotions and marketing for the 2015-2016 fiscal
year. The other $5,000 is to be used to
improve the software management system
and staff training.
Randall Young, who doubles as a member of the Stivers Board of Directors, recused himself from any decision-making on
the subject. However, he explained to the
commission, “Last year, out of the $15,000
donation, $10,000 went to pay for utilities
while the other $5,000 was put towards a
marketing campaign. It was earmarked for
dissemination of information to the schools
and a buy one-get one membership drive.”
“We simply don’t have it in this year’s
budget,” said Tourism Director Denise
Wainscott. “The Stivers Center’s customer
base is both local and regional. It seems
TV-4 would be a good way to promote the
center, and perhaps we could help them
put ads out there.”
“I don’t believe we got the usage we were
expecting from our last donation,” said Charles
Frasier. “Any money we give them needs to be
specified for particular events, and we’ll need
a month or two advanced notice to even help
with those. This is too broad of a request just to
dish out to the general fund. We simply don’t
have $20,000, unless you want to cancel every
other event for the year.”
In the end, the Tourism Commission took
no action and chose, instead, to table discussion on the subject until the next meeting.

KCEOC to hold focus group
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
Editor
KCEOC is inviting the
public to two focus groups to
help KCEOC determine the
needs of the Knox County
community.
All attendees will have a
chance to make their points
and provide their ideas and
feedback.
The first group, which
will focus on health and
nutrition, will be from 4-5
p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 29,
at the Knox County Exten-
classroom to teach in the
education department.”
Local people recall the delicious aromas of cooking
from the four kitchens of
Tye House at the corner
of Manchester and North
Main streets when Mary
Alice was teaching Home
Economics students in the
1960s and 70s. When she
was placed in charge of
Alumni Affairs her duties
benefited from her involvement and membership in
over a dozen local clubs
and social organizations.
By 1984 she turned to
instructing future teachers
in educational methodology. Her success may be
gauged by Union College’s
naming the “Undergraduate Excellence in Teaching
Award” in honor of Mary
Alice Lay.
Throughout her teaching, Ms. Lay placed an
KSP Post 10 Drug Detectives.
Included in those arrests
were the following from
Knox County:
Brian Bunch, of Barbourville: Two counts of
Trafficking Controlled Substance 1st Degree and one
count of Trafficking Controlled Substance 2nd Degree.
Randy Burnett, of Barbourville: One count of
Trafficking Controlled Substance 1st Degree.
Both were lodged in
Knox County Detention
Center.
Several other arrests are
pending in this investigation.

“In the past, we’ve used

Shawn Bingham, Emergency
Services Manager at KCEOC.
“We felt that we needed
more individual responses
and much more open-ended
feedback. Sometimes the

expected, so through the
focus groups, we can offer a

emphasis on history and
patriotism. An active
member of the Dr. Thomas Walker Chapter of the
Daughters of the American Revolution, she urges
teaching young people the
importance of our national
and local heritage. “Place
students first,” Mary Alice
offers as a philosophy of
teaching. “Love them, care
for them, and treat them
with respect. Expect the
best from your students.
Teachers must realize
that they are teaching
humans (individuals) with
many needs. To be an
effective teacher you must
recognize and meet these
needs…. Students rise
to their teachers’ expectations.” Although she is
retiring from teaching, we
expect that Mary Alice Lay
will continue to be active
benefiting Union College,
the Methodist Church and
her community for many
years to come.

to discuss the upcoming health
Assessment survey that will be distributed throughout Knox County.
“We want to tailor this to the
people of Knox County,” said Terry
Lanham, Chair of Knox County
Health Coalition, “so we need to
keep that in mind when writing
the questions.”
The board stressed the importance of keeping the survey short
and to the point, acknowledging
that if a survey is too long would
lose the audience’s attention.
The survey will be available
online through the provider Survey
Monkey, and hard copies available
will be provided through several
local organizations.
“We’re hoping to be ready
before the Daniel Boone Festival,”
explained Lanham. “so, we can
have a booth there for people to
visit and fill out the survey.”
Several students from Barbourville City School have volunteered
to assist the public with the survey
during the Daniel Boone Festival.
Other topics covered at the
meeting were:
•Claudia Greenwood announced that Unite’s Wipe Out
Drugs campaigne is scheduled to
end Oct. 2. The next Unite meeting
is scheduled for 2 p.m. Tuesday,
Oct. 6.
•Unite and Union College will

•KCEOC will hold a yard sale at

PAST GRAND
MARSHALS
The title of Grand Marshal
is intended to recognize an
individual or group, usually
local, who has provided
a significant service to
Barbourville, Knox County
and the citizens of southeastern Kentucky. The
award grew from a number
of other Boone Festival
ceremonies honoring local
individuals, categories such
as “Outstanding Citizen,”
“Spirit Award,” even “Oldest
Able-Bodied Citizen,”
and other memorials and
tributes. At present the
choice of Grand Marshal
is the responsibility of the
chief officers of the Daniel
Boone Festival Committee,
although any member may
offer a recommendation.
Traditionally a grand
marshal leads a parade,
but for many years our
grand marshals have
ridden in a specially designed wagon or a motor
vehicle well back of the
classic cars, fire trucks and
police cars and royalty.
The Grand Marshal of the
first festival in 1948 was
Daniel Boone as portrayed by Union College
student Jack Early. Dr.
Early held the title in his
own right last year (2013)
and previously in 1998,
becoming the only person
to ride in the parade as
Grand Marshal three times.
Actor Scott New in the role
of Daniel Boone walked
ahead of the parade in
2001, although local musician Lois Treadway rode
as Grand Marshal that year.
Occasionally a visiting celebrity, such as last year’s
Turtle Man, may ride in
the parade as an Honorary
Grand Marshal.

on his way to the Stinking

Sprinkles was arrested
without incident; however, he did ask the deputy
to take him to the hospital
to have his hand, which
looked to have an infected
wound, checked out. After
jail personnel looked at the
hand, they agreed Sprinkles should go to the ER
before being booked.
Sprinkles was serving
the third month of a oneyear sentence for theft of
service. He was also under
orders to pay $1,550 in res-
titution.
A charge of escape in the
second degree, a Class D
felony, which holds a sentence of one to five years,
has now been added to
Sprinkles’ charges.
Sprinkles was returned
to the Knox County Detention Center.

Recycling Plant opens doors to Knox Central
BY EMILY BAKER
Reporter
Students from Knox Central
High School took over Barbourville Recycling Plant Tuesday, Sept. 22.
“Every year we pick a day
and take the kids out to eat
and let them work at the recycling plant,” said Barbourville
Mayor, David Thompson.
“This is the seventh year for
our recycling program at Knox
Central,” explained Norma
Leddington, a teacher at Knox
Central. “My class is in charge
of gathering and sorting all
the recycling throughout the
school.”
Recycling has become near
and dear to the hearts of
these students.
“Last year, we applied for
a Pride Grant,” explained
Leddington, “and we received
$750. We used the money to
purchase recycling bins for
every single classroom and
office in the school.”
The students pride themselves on their work and look
forward to their yearly visit to
the recycling plant.
“They Love it,” said Led-
dington. “In fact, one of my
students was very upset because she had to miss school
the day of the trip.”
This year, several students will be given the
opportunity to work at the
plant throughout the entire
school year. Through community based instruction,
Mrs. Leddington and Mr.
Jason Baker, also a teacher
at Knox Central, oversee a
work program for students
age 16 and up. Through this

What is the number one way you can help our county?
Nearly everyone wants
to see our county grow and
prosper.
However, the biggest
problem facing our area
and hurting our growth
prospects today is the abuse
of illegal and prescription
drugs. Even our teenagers
told health coalition surveyors that drug abuse is the
biggest challenge they and
their peers face.
Recently, the Knox County
Sheriff, Barbourville Chief
of Police, and Captain of
the local KSP post all have
publicly discussed this
problem at Operation Unite
From the
Publisher
Jay Nolan
jnolan@mountainadvocate.com
meetings.
These law enforcement
officers all say Heroin is
now a major problem.
Sheriff Mike Smith says
abuse of Suboxone is “out
of control.” “Insurance
companies are paying for it
and criminals are selling it,”
Bennett says.
Basically, these distinguished law enforcement
professionals all sang the
same tune – that abuse of illegal and prescription drugs
is “a plague on our community” to quote KSP Captain
P.J. Burnett.
Drug abuse often leads
addicts to quit or be fired
from work. The lack of income hurts families terribly,
especially children. Worse,
it often leads the addict to
steal to support their addiction, and they may even
abuse or abandon their children. “Half the kids I coach
in sports are raised by their
grandparents,” Bennett told
Unite.
So, what can we as individuals do about this? “The
number one way the public
can help is to provide intelligence,” Bennett says.
Both Chief Tye and Sheriff
Smith agree. They also
reminded the public, “We
have procedures we have to
follow.”
So, they can’t always
respond immediately when
you call. However, all three
officers said they need,
want and value information
about illegal drug selling,
use and abuse.
I know it’s often easier to
just look away, or not get
involved. But after listening
to these officers, I think
reporting what we know
is the number one way we
can help solve our number
one problem. Calling in may
cause a neighbor, friend or
family member to get arrested. But, it could also be the
first step for them to rec-
ognize the severity of their
problem and the catalyst to
get the help they need to
overcome their addiction.
So, I think if you have
information, it’s time to pick
up the phone and make a
difference. What do you
think?

Letter to the Editor
Head Start works!
To the Editor:
Every child that starts
school unready for school is
at risk for a lifetime of costly
challenges, costs we all
share. Head Start, America’s
largest preschool program,
has a vital role in reducing
risk for Kentucky’s most
vulnerable children.
Serving 30 million American children since 1965,
Head Start promotes school
readiness for low-income
children by addressing their
deficits in early learning,
health and family functioning. Many successful alumni
attest to its transformative
impact.
While our investment in
Head Start warrants study,
the inherent challenges for
such research are seen in
early studies whose flawed
methods promoted a misperception that Head Start gains
‘fade out’. Ongoing study has
corrected such flaws with
different outcomes.
Steve Barnett from the
National Institute of Early
Education Research, an
occasional Head Start critic,
analyzed data from 2003 –
2009, finding that language
gains for Head Start children
doubled those in comparison
groups. Another study by Mississippi State University found
MUSEUM CORNER
A WEEKLY ADVOCATE FEATURE
that Head Start children were
twice as likely to be proficient in language, writing and
math. Researchers concluded, “Results clearly show that
Head Start has a significant
impact in the first years of
elementary education.”
These outcomes also
reflect bipartisan work in
Congress to strengthen Head
Start. We have in-creased
training for our teachers in
literacy development. Teachers with four-year degrees
or higher have increased
from 25% to 67%. We’re
replacing oversight agencies
in programs that don’t meet
Head Start’s high standards.
In Kentucky, we’re working
with other early education
providers to align our various
standards for stronger collaboration.
Kentucky’s Head Starts are
among the nation’s strongest,
as evidenced by the stability
of our pro-gram oversight.
We are making a powerful
difference in the lives of
Kentucky’s at-risk children. In
promoting their futures, we
secure Kentucky’s future.

Differences between worry, anxiety, concern and excitement
Recently, I wrote about
the difference between a
reaction and a response.
Along that same thought
process consider the
difference between worry
and anxiety and how they
are different from concern
and excitement. Normally,
it doesn’t take very long
when conversing to hear
someone express a matter
in which creates worry
and anxiety. Worry almost
seems like the activity of
the month that continues
Until
Then
Rev. Tim H. Mills
to repeat itself. Anxiety is
witnessed in our actions
and mannerisms. Observing others normally
produces an immediate
alarm as to an individuals
anxiety level. Worry and
anxiety we hear in the
selection of words used
to describe situations
and we see the impact of
events and their toll on our
lives as we approach their
arrival.
Philippians 4:6 tells us
to be anxious in nothing.
This particular scripture instructs Christians
to approach life with
the constant practice
of eliminating anxiety
through the practice of
thanksgiving. Verse 6 also
instructs us in handling
difficulties and situations
as Christians by sharing
our burden with God and
to do so directly through
a conversation.
An often witnessed,
approach to issues that
have the potential to max
out our stress levels. We
worry and fret about
fixing the situation,
even when we know
to do so is beyond our
skill or talent set. This
approach also includes
the attitude that we are
accomplishing our goal
by demonstrating worry
and anxiety. The practice
of such leads to no such
successful resolutions,
ever! It will lead to wrong
decisions as we rush
into actions without the
consideration of consequences, and we react
without thoughts of a
response.
Concern is an attitude
that allows for the weighing of options and even
when we face, difficult
moments, conditions or
issues, we can be excited about outcomes and
answers through faith.
The invitation of God is for
all of us to approach Him
with a confidence amidst
our concerns. For Christians, this should be our
first step in all matters and
for those who are looking
for solutions, an option to
try a first step in building
a relationship with Jesus
Christ.

Luke had initially been
facing 47 counts of possession of child pornography
in Knox Circuit Court. However, those charges were
dismissed when the FBI
took over the investigation
and presented the case to
a federal grand jury.
Luke had been scheduled to go to trial in August.
However, that date was
continued when a federal
grand jury returned a superseding indictment charging
Luke with attempting to
entice or coerce a minor to
engage in sexually explicit
conduct for the purpose of
producing child pornography.
Luke is now scheduled
to go to trial Oct. 20.
If convicted, Luke faces

The Knox Central High School
Volleyball freshman, junior
varsity, and varsity teams all
played against Whitley County
Monday night at home. All three
teams worked hard in every
match against the tough Whitley
County teams.
The freshmen teams played
the best two out of three matches and the Knox Central freshman lost the first two matches.
In the first match the Lady
Panthers and the Lady Colonels
went back and forth, taking
turns scoring. The score was
close until halfway through the
match when the score was tied
12 to 12 then Whitley scored
three times before turning the
ball over to Knox Central. Whitley remained ahead the rest of
the match. The final score was
Whitley County: 20 Knox Central: 15. The Lady Panthers fell
to Whitley again in the second
match. Whitley started off strong
by scoring first and then con-
tinued to score 4 more times,
making the score 5 to 0. Whitley
kept up the intensity throughout
the rest of the match and maintained their lead. The final score
was Whitley County: 20 Knox
Central: 3.
The JV teams also played the
best two out of three matches
and Knox Central won both of
the matches that were played.
Knox Central’s Kayla Smith set
the pace for the Panthers with
her first serve; the teams volleyed it back and forth and then
both KC and Whitley players
jumped up at the net to hit the
ball and KC blocked Whitley’s

KC Cross Country hosts Harley Laxton Invitational
BY JESSICA MILLER
Sports Writer
The Knox Central Cross Country team
hosted the first annual Harley Laxton
Memorial Invitational this past Saturday,
September 19th. The men’s team took
first overall, edging out conference opponent Corbin by 23 points. The women’s
team took fourth, missing third place by a
mere two points. Twelve schools attended in all.
Head girls’ coach Gerald Wilder
commented that, “It only felt right to
name this invitational after Harley. She
displayed the most important characteristics of a good distance runner—integrity
and an incredible work ethic—and you
could never ask for more than that. Once
a member of KC Cross Country, always a
member.” The meet was held in memoriam of Harley Laxton, who lost her battle
with cancer late last year.
For the races themselves, the men’s
team, led by head coach Wesley Rieth,
did not disappoint. It seemed like déjá vu
all over again, as Mitchell Trent and Zak
Willis claimed first and second, respectively. They did the same at KC’s previous
home meet, on September 6th. However,
this time out, both set new PR’s (personal records) as well, running 18:05 and
18:15 on the 5k course. “It felt good out
there today,” commented Willis, a sophomore. “We’ve had some great workouts
this past week, and I believe they are
starting to pay off.”

Knox Central’s Cross Country girls pace it
out.
To round out the varsity team, Jared
Saylor set a new season best at 19:08,
taking sixth. Tyler Rice also claimed a
top-10 finish, taking eighth in 19:21. Jacob
Logan set his fourth consecutive PR,
crossing the line at 19:32.
Knox Central’s boys cross country team.
The team remains undefeated in the
SEKC (Southeast Kentucky Conference).
Coach Wesley Rieth commented that,
“today’s win was a good morale boost
for us. The boys have been working
tremendously hard. We’ve got our sights
set not on this conference, though—but
the state. We will not settle until we are
competitive on that level.”
In the women’s varsity race, the KC
squad was led by veteran Madison Gibson.
She lead the Panthers with a 5th place
overall finish, and a 23:56—a season best
time. Teammate Reagan Trent also scored
a top-10 finish for KCXC, placing tenth. “It
felt good to score a medal today,” Trent
said. Rookie member Emily Davis set a
new personal record (PR) of 28:37. “Consistent improvement will be the key to our
success,” head coach Gerald Wilder stated. “We believe we can be competitive for
the SEKC crown—and the girls are working
towards that.”
In the junior varsity race, KCXC members Ethan Rose and Brayden Elliott controlled the race from gun to tape, taking
1st and 2nd, respectively. Rose, a senior,
PR’d with 20:58. “I knew the race would
be competitive,” said Rose, “so I just
decided to get out front at the beginning.
I could hear Brayden [Elliott] behind me
the whole time.”
The Panthers also recorded several
entries in the middle school and elementary races, including Logan Lambo (fourth
overall), Cory Hibbard (tenth overall), Ben
Teague, and Lacy Vaughn.
The KCXC squad returns to competition this Saturday, Sept. 26, in Berea.
The Panthers will host the SEKC championships on Tuesday, October 6th. The
public is encouraged to attend.

The varsity teams played
the best three out of five
games and Knox Central
lost the first three matches.
All three matches were
very close, but despite their
hard work and intensity,
the Lady Panthers fell to
the Lady Colonels. Knox
Central’s Sadie Harris
served first then a Whitley
County player went to hit
the ball with one arm and
it bounced off sideways
and rolled out of bounds.
Harris served again and
got the point, making it 2

Whitley went to play the
ball back over the net, but
Knox Central blocked their
hit, which brought them up
3 to 0. Knox Central scored
four more times, making
the score 7 to 0. Whitley
began to make a comeback. Once the score was
tied up 9-9, Whitley took
the lead and held on to it
for the rest of the match.
The final score was Knox
Central: 20 Whitley County:
24. In the second match
the score was close during
the first couple of minutes
of play, but it wasn’t long
before Whitley took an 8 to
4 lead over Knox Central.
Knox Central’s Hayley King
served and the Panthers
scored three times but on
her last serve the ball went
into the net, making the
score 7 to 9 Whitley County.
The Lady Colonels kept
their lead over the Lady
Panthers throughout the
match. The final score was
Knox Central: 21 Whitley
County 25. In the third and
final match of the night,
Knox Central’s Sadie Harris
served first and it went out
of bounds, putting Whitley ahead 1 to 0. Whitley
served, scored, and served
again then Knox Central
hit the ball back over the
net and Whitley attempted
to send it back over, but it
went into the net. With the
score at 2 to 1, Knox Central
served and Whitley hit the
ball back over and scored,
putting them up 3 to 1.
Whitley served and Knox
Central scored, making the
score 3 to 2. Knox Central’s

the game as Knox Central
hit the ball out of bounds
and into the net several
times. However, towards
the end of match the Lady
Panthers really turned it on
and caught up to the Lady
Colonels. Both teams were
moving all over the court
and diving everywhere to
save the ball. Knox Central
and Whitley County took
turns scoring until the very
end when Whitley County
won 25 to 23.
Knox Central played with
heart and encouraged each
other throughout every
single match. The Lady
Panthers will travel to Corbin
next Monday to take on the
2:50 left in the second
quarter McWhorter scored
his second touchdown
of the night. They kicked
for the extra point, which
the put the Blue Devils up
35 to 14. There were only
fifty-six seconds left in the
quarter when Henry Clay’s
Joquise Buford scored a
second touchdown. Their
kick was good, making
the score 42 to 14. At the
10:40 mark in the third
quarter, Henry Clay scored
again and successfully
kicked for the PAT to make
the score 50 to 14.
The Henry Clay scoring
streak seemed to light a
fire inside the Panthers
and they started to really
compete again. Knox
Central’s Donavan Arthur
scored a touchdown at
the 4:05 mark in the third
quarter. They kicked for
the extra point and made
it, making the score 5020. With 3:39 left in the
game Henry Clay threw a
pass and Knox Central’s
Casey Patterson smacked
the ball out of the air and
then caught it and ran the
ball in for a touchdown.
The final score of game
was Henry Clay: 50 Knox
Central: 26.
Knox Central’s Head
Coach, Scott Russell,
laments the loss, “We
wanted to come in and
compete; we knew it
was going to be tough to
beat this team. They are
a six “A” school, top ten
in the state, they’ve got
two Division 1 signees on
their team so we knew
we were going to have a
tough time with them, but
we just wanted to make
sure our kids didn’t quit.”
Coach Russell, while a
little disappointed, can’t
help but be proud of the
Panthers, “We had a
good game plan. We got
out here and made two
or three mistakes, and
against a good team like
this, you’re down three
touchdowns. But our kids
fought back. We were
down two and then came
back and tied it up, and
then they just got away
from us on a couple spe-
cial teams. So we learned
some things tonight, we’re
going to have to go back
and work on it a little bit.
That’s why we play these
good teams, so we can get
better for district play.”
The Panthers travel to
Russell County on Friday.
Kick-off is at 8.

THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE n Thursday, September 24, 2015 n 5B
Time flies by; enjoy peanut butter candy
Kristy Dean Cole
Am I in denial? And no, I’m
not talking about a river in
Egypt.
When I was a kid, we
played outside til dark.
The only time we laid in
front of the television was
for Saturday morning cartoons. When I was in high
school, if you were lucky
enough to bring your parent’s new cell phone to
school for showoff, it was
as big as a home phone,
and you didn’t dare use it
unless it was after 9 p.m.
when it was free service.
We had payphones here
in town that cost a quarter to call home to ask
your parents could you
stay out a little later while
cruising, which my mother always answered, “ab-
‘Accidents happen, but just
try to be good the next time!’
This week we’ve been
working on talking in
complete sentences.
We usually try to begin
our sentences with I or
my. When I asked for a
complete sentence from
several kids, I was again
in stitches! One little
girl exclaimed, “I want
to swim in my swimming pool, but my mommy won’t let me cause
it’s too cold!” A little
boy responded logically,
“Why don’t you just go
swim in a hotel?
Another little girl
went beyond using the
words I and my. She
explained, “When my
mommy paints her, she
turns into a Jeanie and
grants us three wishes!”
I’m pretty sure she’s
using fantasy sentences.
Her little friend decided
to go with the same kind
of sentence. She said,
“I went to the beach and
found a magic seashell!
It turned me into a
dolphin and I swimmed
away in the ocean.”
I’m not quite sure if
this little fellow believed
what he was saying
Tales
from the
Classroom
Regina Bargo
when he said, “I went to
visit the fire station the
last day before yesterday and I helped them.
Then, I died. I had to go
to the hospital and got
myself a shot!
Birthdays are a big
deal in kindergarten! I
have the sister to one
of my former students
in my class this year.
When she told me her
sister was having a birthday, I asked how old she
would be. She shrugged
her shoulders and said,
“I really don’t know
how old she is… I wish
she was still itty bitty so
I could still count her
candles, but now she’s a
teenager!”
We’ve also been
learning about nouns. I
asked the kids to name
a person, a place, or
a thing. Next, I asked
them to individually give
me a sentence using a
noun from our chart.
One little boy said, “The
Bible tells me so!” …
And followed up with
another, “Yes, Jesus
loves me!”
Today, at recess,
another kindergarten
teacher was telling me
about an incident that
had happened in the
lunchroom. She said
she was walking by the
milk cooler when a little
boy ducked his head
right under her hand.
Her hand accidentally
hit the top of his head.
She told him she was
so sorry and she didn’t
mean to do that. He
replied, “It’s okay. Accidents happen, but just
try to be good the next
time!”
Finally, I am so proud
of the vocabulary that
my kindergarteners are
using already. There is a
little boy that now constantly asks me, “Mrs.
Bargo am I doing this
correctly?” Just today, a
little girl shrieked, “Mrs.
Bargo, come quick…we
have a situation!”

solutely not. Nothing good
happens after 11 p.m.”
How did she know?
One thing is certain,

Twin Calves
I bet I don’t have to tell
you that fall is fast approaching. I imagine you
have already noticed that
you have to get up before
the sun does. If you are
a school person, probably the electric lights are
already on to get up by.
And where did the long
evenings go as it is dark
before we are ready for it?
Then, too, it is cool in
the mornings, almost uncomfortably cool. A jacket
or sweater would be
appreciated, but then it
soon will be too warm for
that. But don’t put it too far
away because shortly after
dark it will be welcomed.
Sure enough it is fall.
Just this past week I
was sitting on my Kawasaki Mule in the pasture
for several hours in the
warm sunshine enjoying
the warmth, watching my
favorite cow, Ruler, who
was in labor. By three
o’clock, there was a nice
big male calf. In fifteen
minutes after blinking his
eyes several times, there
was an effort to shake his
head. A few minutes later
there was definite effort
to stand up only to fall
Stinking Creek
News
Irma Gall
Lend-A-Hand Center
back down. About that
time I noticed a definite
restlessness by Ruler.
Oh, no, I implored, “not
another set of twins.” She
had had a set of twins not
even a year ago. Animals
that normally have single
births can have trouble
with multiple births. But
sure enough, the second
calf was soon born that
made four calves in less
than a year’s time.
Last year she had a
male/female set of twins.
That is often not a good
thing because a good
percentage of time, the
female will be a freemartin, meaning her reproductive organs will not
develop. What good is a
female cow if she cannot have a calf or give
milk? You cannot tell by
just looking at her now
or when she is mature.
So I was not looking to
go that route again. But
sure enough, it is a male/
female set again. This
brings on another set of
problems, because at
selling time I must inform
the buyers that there is
a good chance she will
never be a producing
cow, no matter how
strong she looks.
Another problem with
twins is that one is usually
bigger and stronger than
the other. One is usually
slower to catch on how to
get its meal, so time has
to be taken right away to
assure each has a fighting
chance. This extra care
can last several weeks
before one can relax. Even
though it is exciting to
have the extra calf, there
are responsibilities that go
along with it.
No, I don’t have them
named yet, although last
year’s got named “Alto and
Tenor.”

U.S. News & World Report ranks Union
College among top schools in the south
BY JAY STANCIL
Union College is ranked
among the top 100 colleges in
the south according to the 2016
U.S News & World Report best
colleges rankings, which were
released this week.
The 2016 report analyzes
data and creates rankings for
more than 1800 colleges and
universities in the country. U.S.
News has been compiling academic data since 1983, with
the rankings serving as a key
indicator in assisting parents
and students in selecting institutions of higher education.
Union is ranked No. 83 by
U.S. News and World Report
in the publication’s Regional
Universities South Rankings.
Union is classified as a university in the report because
it offers a full range of undergraduate programs along with
selective master’s programs.
Union ranked higher than four
other Kentucky schools in the
listing and rested just behind
Northern Kentucky University
(No. 80) and Eastern Kentucky
University (No. 74) on the list.
The U.S. News report focuses
on all aspects of the institution
in providing the rankings and

analyzing data relative to each
institution. U.S. News ranks
eligible schools on up to 16
measures of academic excellence. The report says that outcome-related measures, such
a graduation and retention
rates, account for 30 percent of
the rankings.
According to the report,
Union College has a student
acceptance rate of 74.7 percent; 77 percent of all classes
host less than 20 students for
a 13:1 student-faculty ratio and
the average freshman retention
rate, an indication of student
satisfaction, is 55 percent.
Six-year graduation rates are
34 percent. The report also
analyzes aspects of each
institution such as student life,
cost and financial aid, campus
services and campus safety.
Further, the report uses indicators to measure a school’s
overall “value,” which includes
analysis of average student
debt, financial aid and other key components to help
prospective students gain an
understanding of what their
education will cost.
According to the report, 83
percent of full-time undergraduate students receive some
kind of need-based financial
aid. The average award at
Union is $17,682, leaving little
of the $24,000 annual tuition
for students, or their parents, to
worry with.
According to U.S. News, the
college ranking categories are
based upon the 2010 Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching classifications. The Carnegie classification system has been used by
U.S. News since 1983, when
the first Best Colleges rankings
were issued. The classification
system is accepted as the basis
for classifying schools by most
higher education researchers.

Union College nursing students begin journey toward career in healing
BY ANDY POWELL
The 2017 class of nursing
students at Union College
have begun their journey
toward a career of healing
those in need. In a white coat ceremony
held at the Conway Boatman Chapel, Marisa Greer,
Interim Dean of Nursing,
led 16 students across the
stage and cloaked each
with a white lab coat; a
universal symbol of the
career the students have
chosen to pursue. Other
professors from the Edna
Jenkins Mann School of
Nursing gave the students
a journal and a candle. The
professors congratulated
each student as they left
the stage to applause and
photographs from family
members in the audience.
The ceremony is a closely regarded tradition in the
nursing and medical field.
It helps to define the career
the students have chosen,
all of which began with
clinical studies one day
prior to the ceremony.
“I heard so many of these
students say yesterday that
they ‘will never forget this
day,’” Greer said. “That is
the significance of the journal. They can record their
path along this journey and
look back at what a special
time it is.”
This is only the second
class of students to enter the second stage of
the four-year Bachelor of
Nursing Program since the
program began in 2014. The
BSN students at the college
began their pre-licensure
curriculum in the fall of
2012. Those students are
now seniors and will graduate from Union in May 2016.
Union also offers students
a 40 credit hour RN to BSN
program, which was introduced in 2010 when the
Edna Jenkins Mann School
of Nursing was officially
opened.
“This program is demanding and rigorous,”
said Dr. David Johns,
Union’s Vice-President of
Academic Affairs. “You
may have days where you
question your decision, but
there will be many more
days that you know you
are doing exactly what you
were born to do.”
Dr. Johns said the students were on a journey to
care for their human family
in great times of need. He
offered the students encouragement and asked
them to cross borders, set
aside their fears and induce
change along their journey.
“The journey that you
are on requires you to care.
It requires that you care
about more than yourself and that you care about
more than what your future
holds,” he said. “Nursing
requires that not only you
know how to provide care,
but that you care for those
you are helping.”
Greer told students the
world of nursing invites
“lots of competitiveness,”
especially in relation to
the limited opportunities
students have to enter a
licensure program. For the
16 students beginning their
clinical experience, Greer
licensed the group to a
flock of flying geese, each
soaring on the thrust of the
others.
“From this point forward,
you are all in this together,”
she said. “Those who share
that sense of community
will get where they are
going.”

The Edna Jenkins Mann
School of Nursing offers
two options for students
seeking a baccalaureate
degree in nursing. The RN
to BSN program is for those
who are already registered
nurses after completing an associate degree
or diploma program. The pre-licensure program
is designed for those who
are entering college or returning to college who are
seeking to enter the profession with a baccalaureate
degree. The baccalaureate
program at Union College is
accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing
Education.

For The Mountain Advocate
In marking another milestone in the
history of Beacon Baptist Church, the
fellowship celebrated once again with
another note burning on Sunday, the
second such event in the church's short
history.
The celebration came after the final
payment had been made in August on
the church’s two-story multi-purpose
facility, which houses Sunday School
classrooms, a large fellowship hall, youth
room, two restrooms and a spacious
kitchen.
Construction began in June 2008 and
has evolved over time as needs arose
and funding was available to complete
projects, such as the open upstairs area
where Beacon’s youth group meets.
The space has since hosted dozens of
fellowship dinners as well as wedding
receptions, birthday parties and family
reunions for families associated with the
church.
Sunday's note burning celebration
included special music with Rod Messer
and Voices of Praise, as well as Pat and
Trey Chesnut from Barbourville Church
of God. Pat's father, Dennis, was elected
Beacon's pastor shortly after the church
formed in spring 2001 and has since
shepherded the congregation.
The church was founded in 2001, with a
meeting at the former Hillbilly's Restaurant.
Other locations provided a meeting
place for the fellowship, such as Curt Corey's gym on Hwy. 229 and the old Smith's
Cabinet Shop, before construction begain
in spring 2003 on the permanent facility
which houses the sanctuary and offices.
The first worship service was held in that
building in January 2004.
