Beer theft ends in car wreck
By Paul Richardson
Thursday of last
week, officers of the Valley Police Department
were called to the Circle
K Convenience Store located at 20th Ave. and
30th St. in the Shawmut
community in reference
to a shoplifting that had
just occurred. The clerk
notified 911 a black male
had stolen three cases of
beer and had left the
property driving south on
Continued on 2A
20th Ave. in a black
Chevy Trailblazer. Sgt.
Britt Hale was on 20th
Ave. at the time and observed the black Trailblazer traveling south.
As Sgt. persued, the
Trailblazer immediately
turned right onto 45th St.
and tried to outrun police. It then attempted to
turn onto 21st Ave. and
collided with a telephone
pole.
Four people
jumped out of the Trailblazer and ran into the
surrounding neighborhood. Officers converged
on the area and arrested
Dashun Bailey, 25 of LaGrange, Tabioious Hudson, 20 of Cusseta, and
Jason Phelmetta, 23 of

tempt to locate the driver
of the vehicle, identified
as Michael Barnes, 51, of
Lanett.
Warrants for
third-degree theft of
property and attempting
to elude will be issued
for his arrest. While officers were searching for
Barnes, they observed
Billy Roy Hester, 39, of
Valley, riding through the
area on a four-wheeler.
Officers checked with
911 dispatch and found
that Hester had outstanding warrants for his arrest
Once Hester was secured, officers ran a computer check of the
four-wheeler that he was
riding and found that it
been reported stolen
from Newnan, Ga. Hester was additionally
charged with first-degree

All
suspects
were

they were processed and
then transported to the
Chambers County Detention Facility.
Tour to emphasize Mapp wins Sun’s
deteriorating roads football contest
The DRIVE Alabama
coalition kicked off its
DRIVE-Along
County
Road tour last week to emphasize the deteriorating
condition of Alabama’s
local road and bridge infrastructure. County engineers
from Chambers and Lee
counties were joined by
Senator Gerald Dial and
other county leaders to view
some of the counties’ most
deficient local roads.
“I was aware of some
of the problems, but it was
good to come back out here
and see first-hand the condition of some of these
roads and bridges,” said
Senator Dial, who toured
Chambers County roads for
the second time this year.
“We’re at the point where
something must be done.”
Now that the ATRIP
Continued on 2A
program – which infused
millions of dollars into local
road and bridge programs –
is nearing its end, many
county officials and engineers worry that the momentum gained will be
stopped in its tracks. For
Chambers County, the $13
million in improvements
delivered by ATRIP over a
3-year period is equivalent
to 20+ years of normal federal allocations received by
the county.
According to Chambers County engineer Josh
Harvill, the county still has
139 miles of paved roads
that are in need of significant improvements or reconstruction. Since more
than 50 percent of those
roads are local, they are not
eligible for federal funds.
Harvill said that means
Chambers County will not
It was an exciting finish for The LaFayette
Sun’s panel of football
prognosticators. Jonathan
(Moose) Mapp edged out
Scott Willingham and Russell Lowe to win the title of
Best Prognosticator.
A panel of nine businesspeople selected their
winners of twenty high
school and college football
games each week for the
past fifteen weeks. Moose,
sales manager at King Auto
Corner, jumped out to a big
lead early on, led the entire
season, albeit by only one
or two games as of late.
His final record was
200 wins against 65 losses.
Willingham, owner of
Scott’s Towing and Lowe,
a mortgage loan officer at
Farmers & Merchants
Bank, finished one win be-
hind Moose.
Mike Wilcox, publisher of The LaFayette
Sun, and a participant in
the panel, said, “It’s unbelievable how close this
contest was. For two people to finish in second only
one win behind is incredible. Actually fourth place
went to Kenny Knox
,owner of Kenny Knox
Tire, was only two wins
down.”
“We at The Sun really
appreciate the panel for
participating,”
added
Wilcox.
Other
participants
were Steve Wheeler of
Alfa Insurance, Paul Ward
of Custom Machine and
Fabrication, Eric Williams
of Diversity Salon and
Jeroskie Finch of Kia of
Auburn.

oz
•Marijuana – 3 oz
•Prescription pills – 455

As a part of the DRIVE-Along County Road Tour, Senator Dial met with local leaders at the intersection of CR
299 and Phillips Road near Huguley Elementary School. The Chambers County Commission has made widening the
roads at the congested intersection a priority, but currently lacks the funding to move the $2.5 million project forward.

be able to make any
significant improvements
to the county’s aging road
system in the near future.
“We just completed an
Industrial Access Road for
a new industry that cost us
about $600,000 to build
1,100 feet of roadway. Fortunately, that project was
100% funded through a
State grant, but it’s a good
example of the price tag
that comes with road
work,” said Josh Harvill,
Chambers County engineer.
“What most people don’t
understand is that for every
dollar you put into infrastructure, you get a five-toone
return
benefit.
Chambers County gets a
big economic boost every
time we invest in local infrastructure.”
According to the Federal Highway Administration, a $1 billion investment
in transportation infrastructure supports approximately 27,000 jobs, and a
2011 survey of CEOs found
that highway accessibility
was the number one site selection factor for industries.
“Infrastructure is a critical component to economic development, not
only during the recruitment
process, but with retaining
and growing our existing
industries. For example, infrastructure improvements
were vital to Knauf Insulation and Norbord – both
during their opening and reopening,” said Chambers
County Economic Development Director, Valerie
Gray. “Local businesses
like Dollar General or
Roy’s Butcher Block also
feel an economic impact
when road projects are
completed, because they
can hire more people when
they have better customer
traffic.”
The
DRIVE-Along
County Road Tours are part
of the DRIVE Alabama
campaign to educate Alabama citizens about the declining condition of local
roads and bridges due to
scarce resources for infra-

Mr. Ray
Mr. W. D. (Bill) Ray,
age 93, of Fredonia passed
away Sunday, Nov. 22,
2015 at West Georgia Medical Center in LaGrange,
Ga.
Funeral services were
held Saturday, Nov. 28, at
Fredonia United Methodist
Church, followed by burial
at the church cemetery with
military honors.
Mr. Ray was preceded
in death by his wife of 62
years, Corinne Fincher Ray.
He is survived by three
daughters, Rebecca (Freeman) Taber of Tucson,
Phyllis (Michael) Steinborn
of Athens, Ga., and Jennifer
Ray of Woodstock, Ga.,
and two grandchildren,
Joshua (Tanja) Ray and
Eva Steinborn.
Mr. Ray was born September 20, 1922, in Haleyville, AL, to the late
Bertha and William D. Ray.
He studied math and science at Auburn University,
where he earned his B.S.
and M.S. degrees. He went
on to teach math at Auburn
University, Arizona State
University
and
high
schools in West Point, GA,
Camp Hill, AL and Five
Points, AL.
He served in the Army
Air Force during World
War II as a crewmember of
a B-17, where he saved
lives by providing emergency oxygen to fellow
crewmen. Combat decorations include the Air Medal,
the Soldier’s Medal and inclusion on the Squadron
Honor Roll.
Mr. Ray loved farming
and was very successful at
raising hay, cattle and timber. The cattle business introduced him to auctions
and before long he bought
a company that specialized
in setting up tents for all
types of auctions. That
stimulated dual interests in
auctioneering and real estate. He attended Superior
Auction School in Illinois,
became a skilled auctioneer, and was eventually inducted into the Alabama
Auctioneers Association
Hall of Fame. He became
a real estate broker, a certified real estate appraiser
and a real estate developer.
He owned Ray Farm, Ray
Realty and Auction Company and later Courthouse
Square
Antiques
in
LaFayette. He was a charter member of the Chambers County Industrial
Board and was active in the
Valley Sportsmans Club,
Fredonia Community Club,
Chambers County Cattleman’s Association and the
LaFayette Rotary Club. Mr.
Ray will be remembered
not just for what he accomplished but for who he was
– a brilliant man who
treated others unfailingly
with honesty, courtesy, respect and a touch of salty
humor.
The family would like
to extend a special thank
you to the staff at Poplar
Creek Senior Living in LaGrange, Ga., for the loving
care they provided in Mr.
Ray’s final years.
Memorials to the Fredonia United Methodist
Church Cemetery Fund
would be welcomed.

Mikes’s Musings
Our money spent on shrimp fights, beer koozies
By Mike Wilcox, Publisher
I didn’t know much
about Senator Jeff Flake
(Ariz.) until I saw a segment last night about his
new book, “Wastebook:
The Force Awakens”,
which features 101 examples of federal government
waste, from the big ($100
billion in governmentwide, improper payments)
to relatively small ($20,000
to “celebrate the piñata” in
Baltimore).
Flake who likes to bill
himself as the Luke Skywalker champion of uncovering government waste,
has spotlighted several
projects that need to be
eliminated. albeit he could
do it more effectively without the Star Wars theme.
Here’s a few of the
more ridiculous expenditures. Remember this is our
money that is being used to
fund this stupidity:
-One of the major
abusers of taxpayers’
money is the National Institutes of Health. These guys
are under fire frequently for
blowing money on ridiculous projects. Flake uncovered their latest. The project
trained twelve monkeys in
how to run on a treadmill,
which cause some of the
monkeys to vomit, while
others defecated on the exercise ball. COST TO US$1,000,000.
-Here’s a doozie, or
should I say koozie. A National Science Foundation
study tried to figure out if a
koozie does in fact keep
beer cold. They found it
does. COST TO US$1,300,000.
-The National Institute
of Drug Abuse was
awarded a government
grant to determine if college students can get addicted to pizza. The results
were inconclusive. COST
TO US- $780,000.
-The federal government agreed to create a
commune for hipsters (first
they had to define hipster)
to encourage them to quit
smoking. Again the results
were inconclusive. COST
TO US- $5,000,000.
-The Environmental
Protection Agency awarded
a grant to create a device
that monitors how long
hotel guests spend in the
shower. COST TO US$15,000.
-Researchers
were
awarded a grant in an effort
to create the perfect tweet.
Their advice was to get
more retweets. COST TO
US- $2,600,000.
-One
government
study started a shrimp fight
club that included 34 bouts
with mantis shrimp fighting
each other. I’m not sure for
what purpose. COST TO
US- $707,000.
-NASA tested microgravity on sheep, which
they admitted was a niche
project. The purpose of the
study was to learn about
bone development in outer
space, though NASA has
long known astronauts lose
bone density in space.
COST TO US- $1,200,000.
-A Pentagon project
created a creepy robot
lobby greeter. “With a plastic mask, wig and long
metal fingers, the greeter
has a creepy appearance resembling a hybrid of horror
movie villains Michael
Myers from Halloween and
Freddy Krueger from a A
Nightmare on Elms Street,”
Flake said. COST TO US$2,500,000.
I could go on an on.
These examples of government waste total in the tens
of billions. I am so tired of
hearing the people that are
suppose to represent us in
Washington, talk about how
we need more money for
this or that. I’m so tired of
governmental agencies always crying poor and demanding more handouts.
To me, government
needs to quit spending
money on projects that
make no sense- (can you
believe shrimp fighting?)
and re-allocate money from
one department to another
or to simply eliminate the
frivolous spending and return it to us. WE as taxpayers provide enough money.
We expect our representatives to spend it wisely.
Certainly this report indicates the opposite is happening.
A funny thing happened in Biloxi
By Jody Fuller
I was having a rough
couple of days. It happens
from time to time, perhaps
more often than I like to
admit. One day things will
be better. Of that, I am
sure.
Driving to the Golden
Nugget in Biloxi was a
chore in itself. I drive all
over the place, so four
hours in a vehicle is just a
hop, skip, and a jump to
me. I didn’t even listen to
the radio. When I first
turned it on, Taylor Swift
was playing so I immediately turned it off and never
turned it back on again, because I was fearful she
would still be there.
When I got to Biloxi, I
checked into my hotel
room and was in the bed
before the door closed. It’s
where I needed to be. The
fact that the bed was complete awesomeness didn’t
hurt either. The fact that
there were no four-legged
creatures on it made it all
the more enticing. Make no
mistake about it, I love
sleeping with my animals,
but sometimes I just want
to be in a large, clean, comfortable
bed
without
coughing up fur ball every
couple of hours.
I was giving the closing keynote the next day at
an insurance conference,
but they invited me to their
big shindig, which was
starting about an hour after
I laid down. I’d seriously
considered sleeping right
through it. I didn’t feel like
being around people. I just
wanted to be alone.
Feeling obligated to
make an appearance, I did.
Everyone was incredibly
nice to me, but I told them
I probably wouldn’t be
there long, because I had
things to do, which was
true. In fact, I had to write
this article, but I also just
wanted to be alone so I
could wallow in my own
self-pity.
But a funny thing happened…
I wound up staying for
hours and hours and not
because there was an open
bar, because there wasn’t.
It was a cash bar, but they
did have a pretty great
spread of food: pasta and
shrimp and boudin, oh my!
Also, one of their
agents was an acquaintance
of mine. She is the niece of
Command Sergeant Major
Bennie Adkins. We met last
year at the White House
when Bennie was being
awarded the Medal of
Honor. I had no idea that
I’d see her, so that was a
sign of good things to
come.
There was great entertainment throughout the
evening, but the grand finale featured several musi-
cal acts including the very
talented Ronnie McDowell. His song “Older
Women are Beautiful
Lovers” has long been a favorite of mine. I also
learned that he served three
tours of duty in Vietnam.
We had a nice chat later in
the evening. Now, I can’t
stop singing that song.
It turned out to be a
great night. It’s important
to get out and about when
we are feeling down for
whatever reason. If we remain alone, be it home or a
hotel room, our emotions
have the ability to spiral
out of control, and we
won’t encounter anything
that has the ability to spark
change.
This morning, as I
stood in line at the breakfast buffet with what appeared to be the cast of
Cocoon, I was still singing
“Older Women are Beautiful Lovers,” and one of the
blue haired beauties turned
around and winked at me.
You see, older women,
they understand. They
know just how to treat a
man.

speaker, writer and soldier
with three tours of duty in
Iraq. He is also a lifetime
stutterer. He can be reached at

Sometimes there is a rational reason
By Paul Richardson
I have never made a
secret for my disgust, lack
of admiration and respect,
and downright disappointment with the Obama Administration.
I have compared him
Hitler, accused him of
being an outright socialist,
and questioned and condemned every shenanigan
he has attempted to do.
I have lost track of his
senseless spending of tax
payer money for his “Vacations.“ ($11 Million to play
golf in Hawaii. $22 million
to send his daughters on
spring vacation to the
Caribbean.)
But someone sent me a
joke about Mr. Obama that
PLEASE
HAVE
YOUR
PETS
SPAYED &
NEUTERED
I feel I must share. It pretty
well sums up the old boy,
his actions, his attitudes, his
overall term as being president.
To begin with, have
you ever seen, or heard of a
“post turtle?” (A turtle sitting on a fence post?)
Neither had I until this
message came, complete
with photo.
“Obama is a post turtle! (Not the worst thing a
person could be called but
perhaps a good comparison
for someone totally lost in
himself.)
When you're driving
down the road and come
across a fence post with a
turtle balanced on top, that's
a 'post turtle'.
Although you may
wonder about the circumstances of the poor reptile’s
fate, you know he didn't get
up there by himself, he
doesn't belong up there, he
doesn't know what to do
while he's up there, he's elevated beyond his ability to
function, and you just wonder what kind of dumb
bunny put him up there to
begin with.
Sound familiar?

Political Correctness
By Bill Frazer
If you read Proverbs
in the Bible it says over
and over again “to keep
your mouth shut”. Not
exactly in those words,
but it says that loose talk
is an indication of your
lack of information or of
your ignorance.
However, as just indicated by the terrorist
attack
in
San
Bernandino, one may be
justified in speaking up
about something that is
actually amiss. If the
neighbor of the terrorists
had reported to the authorities the strange circumstances prior to the
slaughter, the lives of 14
innocent people may
have been prevented.
Sheriff Jolley has
erected a sign in Harris
County, GA and the response has gone viral
(that is what the social
media calls national circulation). The sign on
Highway 116 in front of
the Sheriff's Office in
Hamilton states that this
community operates on
Christian principles and
if you are not willing to
abide by the guidelines,
please leave. You would
have thought that based
on the liberal news agencies in response relative
to his sign that he had
committed a major injustice, and based on critical
comments some think
that he has.
It is right interesting
to read the local editorials on this topic. Cy
Wood of The Valley
News-Times wrote that
he hoped the sign is relegated to the dumpster by
the time his article was
printed. Whereas the
transplanted Northerner
Mike Wilcox, in his editorial in the LaFayette
Sun, was rather complimentary of Sheriff Jolley’s sign that seemed to
some to be a violation of
civil rights.
Politicians are generally careful to not say
anything that may offend
Harris County Sheriff Jolley posing by sign erected in Hamilton, GA
a segment of the general
public. If they offend a
major voting bloc, they
know that their chances
of getting elected are affected. Often the real
mission of our elected
officials is muted so that
they can be elected or
stay in office.
In the case of Sheriff
Jolley, he has already
served 23 years as Sheriff and is assured that he
can stay in office as long
as he wishes. The majority of the county citizens
have openly supported
him overwhelmingly. He
paid $450 for the sign he
erected
but
Harris
County citizens are coming out in droves to offer
financial help to pay for
the sign. Also, Sheriff
Jolley served 20 years in
military service.
Of course a small
percentage of the county
residents are offended.
One of the major complaints is that the sign
was placed on county
property which they as
tax payers have a part.
The Sheriff has received
a lot of hate mail including the liberal news
media, but he says he
simply throws the letter
in the trash and tunes out
the critics on air.
Another sign similar
to Sheriff Jolley's sign
has gone viral. Schulers
bakery in Springfield,
Ohio has placed a sign in
front of his 2 bakeries
that has an almost identical
message.
Mr.
Schulers sign has come
under intense scrutiny as
well with some saying
that it is unconstitutional.
Sign posted in front of Shulers Bakery, Springfield,
Ohio
As far as his customer
base, it has grown, as a
lot of citizens admire his
courage to endure national criticism and
speak out on his Christian faith.
The last time I
looked at the National
Pledge Of Allegiance, it
read: “I Pledge Allegiance To The Flag Of
The United States Of
America And To The Re-
public For Which it
Stands, One Nation
UNDER GOD, Indivisible With Liberty And
Justice For All.” Now I
am pretty sure it is not
recognizing
Muslim,
Hindu or other gods in
the pledge.
Ironically, Sheriff
Jolley is not making
some
people
Jolly
(Happy) during the
Christmas season.

Both the varsity and
JV Lady Rebels basketball
teams were victorious on
Thursday night at home
against the Evangel Christian Academy Lady Lions.
For one of the few times
this season the 4-1 JV and
3-4 varsity teams -both
coached by Brandi Fullerpulled off impressive performances
on
the
samenight as the younger
squad won 31-23 and the
upperclassmen defeated
theirguest 41-29.
The JV game started
off with an impressive defensive performance as the
Lady Rebels held the Lady
Lions scoreless after the
first quarter. Evangel’s
press was no match for the
Lady Rebel guards during
a much more competitive

What’s On My Mind:
The Valley High School
Rams boys basketball team
is in a tailspin following Saturday’s 44-43 loss at
LaFayette. The loss brought
the Rams’ overall record to a
disappointing 0-7.
Despite the record there
have been plenty of close
losses that give the impression Valley could easily be 43 or at 3-4 headed into the
Smith’s Station High School
Tournament from December
17-19.
Starting with a 58-40
home opening loss to
Auburn High School, the
Rams took two close losses
at the LaFayette Tip-Off
tournament to the host
school, 50-47, and to Holt,
53-48.
Valley started the month
of December with a December 1 road game at Russell
County that was a lot closer
than the final score, 93-83,
indicated. A week later a four
point loss at home to Callaway High School (Hogansville, Ga.) brought their
record to 0-5.
The Rams are certainly
not a young team, there are
seven seniors on the roster
and two juniors, Kevante
Ross and Markevious
Booker.
Head
coach
Marshon Harper (also the
Rams football coach) has a
lot to work with but thus far
there has not been a lineup
that has resulted in a victory.
Valley also has a couple
promising underclassmen in
sophomore forward Keionte
Holloway and freshman
guard Tracy Winston, Jr. On
Friday night at Lanett that
mix of veteran players and
future talent didn’t do much
to stop what thus far looks to
be the best team in Area 8.
The Panthers won 67-41.
Alabama not just winning in Football
There are going to be
some winnable games coming up in the New Year however. Valley opens 2016 with
a home game against Hardaway (Columbus, Ga.) and
has matchups with Opelika
(on the road) and Booker T.
Washington (at home) that
look like sure victories. In
between there is a rematch
with Auburn High School
(8-1) on January 5.
The basketball season is
a marathon and not a sprint
so what remains of the Valley Rams season is yet to be
completely told but if the recent 3-7 football season can
be used as an example the
Rams need to get started
winning soon.
Lanett High boys basketball
Panthers run by Rams
Mosley added 10 points.
Sophomore forward Emmanuel Little grabbed 14 rebounds.
“We must get better if
we are going to contend for
an area championship,” said
Carter. “Pollard and Little did
rebound extremely well
though.”
On Saturday the Panthers took their three-game
winning streak down to
Mableton, Georgia to play a
non-region game against the
Whitefield Academy Wildcats and Coach Carter tried to
prepare his team for the test.
“After an emotional and high
energy game on Friday night
I thought on Saturday our intensity was a level down,”
said Carter.
The Panthers were
ahead by a point at halftime,
24-23, before falling behind
following the third after the
Wildcats outscored them 1713. The panthers were 9-15
from the free-throw line and
Carter believes that is a part
of the Panther’s offense that
needs immediate attention.
“Again we were woefully inconsistent from the
line,” said Carter.
Senior guard Tavaris
Geiger led Lanett in scoring
with 13 points, junior forward Travon Mathis scored
10. Lanett will next host Harris County (Hamilton, Ga.)
on Tuesday, Dec. 15.

The Lanett Panthers
split games over the weekend, winning, 67-41, at home
against the neighboring Valley High Rams followed by a
60-50 loss to non-region opponent Whitefield Academy
(Mableton, Ga.) on Saturday,
Dec. 12. The Panthers remain
undefeated at home (3-0) and
with the loss have a record of
7-3.
On Friday, Dec. 11 the
Panthers hosted the Rams
and from the start the game
was going to belong to the
home team. Lanett got out to
a fast start after holding Valley to only seven points during the first quarter. Lanett
sophomore forward Anquavious Pollard outscored Valley 8-7 during that time. The
Panthers took a 32-21 into
halftime. “I felt that we
played some good defense
for most of the game,” said
Lanett head coach Richard
Carter.
Senior Panther guard
Tavaris Geiger scored nine of
his game high 21 points during the third quarter as the
Panther advantage grew to 17
points. The Panthers continued their offensive onslaught
as they outscored the Rams
20-11 during the final eight
minutes.
Pollard finished the
game with 11 points and 14
rebounds, senior guard Zach
By Donnell Suggs
more attention. If left up to
the new coach there probably
won't be a peep heard (remember: quiet) around
Tuscaloosa or anywhere else
about his team’s recent success, because that was the
way the former NBA champion and Southern University
Jaguar liked it, nice and
quiet.
Avery Johnson was introduced as the new Crimson
Tide head basketball coach
on April 18 of this year and
since then he has been building one of the SEC’s best
teams. Senior guard Retin
Obasohan is playing the best
ball of his career, averaging
12.9 points per game. His 23
points and three assist in 38
minutes helped the Tide beat
Clemson. Junior forward
Shannon Hale scored 12
points and seven rebounds
were also instrumental in the
victory as well.

Alabama is now looking
more and more like a regularity. The Tide have already
beaten Louisiana-Lafayette,
105-93, Wichita State, 64-60
and Notre Dame, 74-73. All
of those teams have made the
NCAA tournament within
the last two seasons. Both the
Shockers and Fighting Irish
made solid runs during last
year’s tournament. The
Crimson Tide is once again a
two sport school (with all due
respect to the baseball team).
Alabama plays a few
more games before the New
Year and the beginning of the
conference season but put an
earmark by January 19, 2016
on your calendars. On that
day the Auburn Tigers host
their rivals and the odds of
that game not being as exciting as the yearly football
matchup. Tiger coach Bruce
Pearl and Tide coach Avery
Johnson will definitely see to
that. Quietly of course.

LaFayette enters in to design phase for new park
By Alton Mitchell
The year 2015 is only
a matter of weeks from
being over and the city of
LaFayette’s local representation is taking proactive
steps to leave a lasting
mark on the image left over
in the legacy of 2015.
Many new and potential
improvements highlighted
the Monday night meeting
of LaFayette’s MayorCouncil meeting. Much of
the discussion centered on
improvements to infrastructure and improvements that
will stimulate growth in the
community.
The high point of
Monday night’s meeting
surrounded another visit by
Elise Cormier. She represents an organization from
Atlanta, Georgia known as
Smart Landscapes. In early
November Cormier traveled to LaFayette to discuss
the potential possibilities of
a new city park in the city
of LaFayette. The points
that she brought up in the
November meeting fell on
the ears of the City Council
as she was invited back on
Monday night.
The visit by Cormier
on Monday night led to a
unanimous decision by the
council to enter into a design service agreement with
Cormier and Smart Landscapes. The agreement allows for early development
stages to begin the development of plans and possible
fundraising efforts for a
master plan of the city’s
new park. The plan presented to council on Monday lays out the potential of
a 6-month timeline for the
development of ideas.
Shortly after the brainstorming and input sessions
are complete it is the plan
that phase one of the project can begin which should
include a much needed
playground in LaFayette.
Other stages set to be de-
veloped in the park will develop over time in phases.
As the vision of a new
park becomes a reality in
LaFayette, ensuring that
park goers are safe was also
on the agenda for the city
council. Superintendent
George Green briefed
council on updates to local
street signs which are being
replaced in the city. Mr.
Green updated council that
the process is currently in
the works and ongoing. The
replacing and updating of
street signs in the city of
LaFayette is being done to
keep the city in line with
new federal regulations
which will go into effect in
2018. Newer brighter and
more visible signs are replacing older ones in the
city.
In addition to the replacing of street signs
throughout LaFayette new
community signs are also
being put up in all districts.
These types of signs will
include signs such as, children at play and no littering
signs. Council members
expressed an interest in also
working with various city
departments to improve the
numbering on the exterior
of structures including
homes in the city. In keeping up with other regulations Mr. Green also
announced to council that
he went to training in August that will assist in the
removal of asbestos which
has become a state regulation for proper training and
certification for the removal and disposal of hazardous materials such as
asbestos. Mr. Green will
work with city attorney
Joseph M. Tucker to develop possible future ordinance to dictate how the
city will handle demolition
of structures and the removal of hazardous materials such as asbestos.
The City Council also
decided that they would
partner with Chambers
County to assist in fitting
the bill for road improvements and repaving to areas
of Alabama Avenue and
1st. Avenue. In addition to
the road projects in
LaFayette the Hugley Industrial Park will also receive a paving upgrade.
That project cost will be
picked up by Chambers
County. In a dynamic cost
saving measure to the city,
City Clerk Louis Davidson
received a special congrats
by council members for his
hard work and effort in
working with LaFayette’s
budget proposal and pulling
it out of the red and actually
leaving the city with a surplus. Council suspended
the rules of the meeting in
order to approve the budget
resolution which Mr.
Davidson has been working
on.
Before adjourning the
meeting the council voted
to move up the December
28th meeting to next Monday December 21st at 6
p.m. Central Standard
Time. Mayor Moody also
commended the success of
the first annual Christmas
Festival which was held
December 5th in downtown
LaFayette. Mayor Moody
offered his excitement over
all the great things going on
in LaFayette leading up to
the holiday season that include street upgrades, the
new website, and the new
Branding
Campaign.
Mayor Moody also reminded everyone to keep
those who may be going
through hard times during
the holiday season in their
prayers and to say a special
prayer for all those in need
of one during the holiday
season. Shortly after the
council voted unanimously
to pay the bills for
LaFayette and adjourned
the general meeting until
next Monday
Southern Union, others to merge
On Monday the curtains
came up on one of the
biggest and most anticipated projects to hit
LaFayette in a long time. At
Monday night’s mayor-city
council meeting Mr. Chris
Busby was proud to announce before the council
and the audience inside city
hall that LaFayette’s new up
to date website is now a finished product and opened
for public viewing.
There has been months
of speculation leading up to
what the new website
would offer to residents,
visitors, and potential investors in the LaFayette
market. All the guess work
has now ended as detailed
portal into LaFayette now
exists with the presences of
a worldwide audience.
During the months leading up to this massive debut
City Council received consistent updates on the
progress of the project
which was running ahead of
schedule. Input was often
requested by Mr. Busby and
City Clerk Louis Davidson
whom both spearheaded the
new project. The local representatives along with a
north Alabama web development company known as
Red Sage can take credit for
the finished product.
Visitors to the new website will be able to take a
virtual trip to LaFayette as

to welcome visitors to the
new website. Other great
features to the website include a list of local attractions, and upcoming events
including festivals. One of
the best features is availability to reach out and connectwith
local
representatives. Email access is available through the
website to city leadership
and department heads.
The website also boosts
the slogan of, “Strength
Woven In”. The slogan itself suggests so much about
the city of LaFayette, coming from a region where
textile manufacturing dominated area economies for
the vast majority of history
to establish the strength behind this community. Despite the textile industry
now being a thing of the
past in the region the fabric
which was used to develop
the community at its root,
has been the tool to establish its current strength.
The world can now see
what a great community
LaFayette is and what it has
to offer from anywhere.
Visitors are offered two separate web addresses to view
the new LaFayette website.
Those are located at
www.lafayetteal.com or
www.cityoflafayetteal.com,
both are completely functioning as of now and offer
so much about a special
place that has evolved from
Chambersville to LaFayette
over time.

Financial difficulties
continue to the plague the
state of Alabama and once
again the potential cuts are
having an impact close to
home. The newest cost saving measures being proposed by state officials in
Montgomery have taken a
toll on the community college system of Alabama
and the merging of several
local campuses.
Past budget shortfalls
over the past several
months have led to the closing of several of the States
driver’s licenses offices,
cuts to state parks, and the
closing of local ABC stores
in several markets. The latest cost saving action will
consolidate seven of the
state’s community colleges
into two separate regional
campuses.
While the city of
LaFayette does not have a
physical campus located in
the city limits, several residents in the city make the
commute to regional campuses for degrees and certificates in the realm of
higher education. These
campuses are found in destinations such as; Opelika,
Wadley, Phenix City, and
Alexander City.
Under a measure approved last week by the Alabama Community College
System Board of Trustees a
merger will occur that will
combine the following
local campuses in to one regional campus; Southern
Union State Community
College in Wadley and
Opelika, Central Alabama
Community College in
Alexander City, and Chattahoochee Valley Community
College in Phenix City.
Word from officials says
that all the campuses will
remain open and the only
major change will be the
consolidation of administrative duties. That consolidation is seen as the best
way to save money for taxpayers in the long run and
allow for a more efficient
running of the schools.
In addition to the major
merger taking place with
the schools in East Alabama the board also approved a merger that will
combine other colleges in
the state under a similar
move. Those schools in that
merger will include Jefferson Davis Community College in Brewton, Southern
Community College in
Monroeville, and Reid
State Technical College in
Evergreen will be consolidated with Faulkner State
Community College in Bay
Minette.
The board believes that
the move should take about
a year to complete the
merger of the effected campuses. As of yet no word on
possible job loss has been

Chambers County Extension News
By Ken McMillan-Chambers County Extension Coordinator
USDA declares assistance available for Chambers County Farmers
Above average rainfall
in central and south Alabama this fall delayed harvest and damaged crops.
Now, farmers in 25 Alabama counties are eligible
for disaster assistance, including emergency loans.
On December 10th,
2015 the U.S. Department
of Agriculture (USDA) approved an agriculture disaster declaration for 25
counties across central and
south Alabama after excessive rainfall, wind and
flooding damaged crops
this year.
The declaration includes Baldwin, Barbour,
Butler, Bullock, Chambers,
Coffee, Conecuh, Covington, Crenshaw, Dale, Elmore, Escambia, Geneva,
Henry, Houston, Lee,
Lowndes, Macon, Monroe,
Montgomery, Pike, Randolph, Russell, Tallapoosa
and Wilcox counties.
Farmers in those counties now have eight months
to apply for assistance
from the USDA Farm
Service Agency (FSA), in-
cluding emergency loans.
The applications will be
evaluated
individually
based on direct production
losses.
“Farmers work long
hours every fall to get their
crops in, but when weather
conditions won’t allow
them to get in the field,
there’s not much they can
do,” said Carla Hornady,
Alabama Farmers Federation director for cotton,
soybeans and wheat and
feed grains divisions. “We
will work with farmers
around the state to help assess damage and inform
them of available assistance.”
Through November,
excessive rainfall in south
Alabama delayed harvest
and damaged crops. National Weather Service reports for the month show
rainfall amounts two
inches above normal at the
Troy reporting station and
eight inches above normal
at the Dothan reporting station.
Gov. Robert Bentley
submitted the disaster request to U.S. Secretary of
Agriculture Tom Vilsack
Nov. 12. Vilsack formally
designated 13 counties as
primary disaster areas,
with 12 contiguous counties also added to the declaration.

Inside The Statehouse
By Steve Flowers
This week we will
conclude our analysis of
the potential horses in the
2018 Alabama Gubernatorial Derby. First, let me
briefly recap the horses we
have already handicapped.
The list includes, in descending order, Speaker of
the House Mike Hubbard
(18), Supreme Court Justice Jim Main (17), Sen.
Greg Reed (16), Sen.
Arthur Orr (15), Anniston
Mayor Vaughn Stewart
(14), Tuscaloosa Mayor
Walt Maddox (13), Mobile
Mayor Sandy Stimpson
(12),
Congressman
Bradley Byrne (11), Lt.
Gov. Kay Ivey (10), Sen.
Del Marsh (9), State Agriculture
Commissioner
John McMillan (8), Attorney
General
Luther
Strange (7), Huntsville
Mayor Tommy Battle (6),
State Treasurer Young
Boozer (5), and Secretary
of State John Merrill (4).
The final three horses will
be revealed today.
Our Number 3 horse is
Tim James. James could
have easily won the 2010
Governor’s Race. In fact,
if the primary had been
two weeks earlier polling
reveals he would have
won. However, the last ten
days leading up to the primary unveiled a volley of
negative ads hurled between Tim James and
Bradley Byrne, which propelled Bentley into the
runoff and ultimate victory. Being within an eyelash of victory has got to
stick in James’ craw. He
may have the itch to run
again. He is young and has
some personal money to
get the ball rolling again.
Having run a successful
get acquainted race makes
him a viable candidate.
That is why I have Tim
James at number 3.
The Number 2 horse
may be the best known
horse in the Alabama political stable. Chief Justice
Roy Moore is by far the
best known potential horse
out of the 18 predicted to
make the 2018 Alabama
Gubernatorial Derby. You
cannot run for a judgeship
in Alabama after age 70.
Moore will be 72 in 2018,
so he has nowhere else to
go but governor.
Moore is in vibrant
health and looks young. He
is not ready to go back to
Etowah County and ride
his horses. Therefore, he
will run for governor and
he will be a major player.
Moore will be the religious
right evangelical candidate. In a large field this
guarantees him a spot in
the runoff. However, my
opinion is that whoever
has the other spot in the
June 2018 GOP Primary
runoff beats him. Folks in
Alabama seem to think of
Moore as a judge, not a
governor. In Alabama State
Supreme Court races
Moore is 3-0. In governor’s races he is 0-3.
The Number 1 horse is
a phantom dark horse. This
candidate is not on the
scene today but they are already the favorite. Alabama political history
reveals that an unknown
candidate who has never
been elected statewide almost always wins the governor’s race. The list of
past dark horse candidates
is long and it includes Big
Jim Folsom, George Wallace, Guy Hunt, Bob Riley,
Robert Bentley and Fob
James.
The Fob James like
candidate, a successful
businessman who sells
their business for millions
and decides to buy the
governor’s office as a pastime, is the favorite. That
“Mr. Unknown” is my favorite to win the 2018 Gubernatorial Derby.
As I mentioned at the
onset of my series on potential horses, in what I
have dubbed the 2018 Alabama Derby, it is early in
the game. In fact, it is only
the second quarter. A handful of these horses have already made the decision to
pull the trigger or should I
say enter the gate. They are
already running but a good
many of the names I have
dropped are probably not
interested in running or
may run for a lesser spot
than governor or take
themselves out to pasture.
We Alabamians love a
good governor’s race and
it will be a good one because the office is wide
open. This time next year I
will repost my analysis of
the 2018 gubernatorial
derby. In the meantime we
have an entertaining race
for president percolating.
Stay tuned.
See you next week.

Governor’s office facing Federal investigation
By Paul Richardson
The State’s recent closing of County Drivers License
offices
is
a
controversy that will not
end. While most offices are
now reopen, the action has
attracted Government attention, leaving Gov Bentley in the hot seat again.
Federal officials have announced that they will investigate whether Alabama
violated civil rights laws,
especially in poor counties
with minority populations,
denying them of essential
services (as per Title VI of
the 1964 Civil Rights Act).
“The U.S. Department of
Transportation is making it
clear that Title VI is not optional and that we will work
to make sure all of its components are enforced,” said
U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx. “Driver
License Offices offer essential services to the American people, including
providing thousands in Alabama with a method of
identification. It is critical
that these services be free
of discrimination, and serve
Want to get our News

box for FREE?
the people of the state fairly
and equally.”(Title VI
specifically prohibits discrimination based on nationality, race and color in
programs getting federal
assistance.) The state, as
well as the Alabama Law
Enforcement Agency, receives “substantial Federal
assistance and, therefore,
are subject to adhere to
strict nondiscrimination
procedures under title VI,”
a USDOT official said. As
reported earlier, Alabama
suspended services in Octo-
ber of 31 DL offices (11 in
Black majority counties.)
The decision to close offices, which state officials
blamed on a tight budget,
left 28 of Alabama's 67
counties without an operating license office. These 28
offices represent less than 5
percent of driver license
business throughout the
state, according to ALEA.
In November, after a backlash, the Governor agreed
to reopen the offices, but
just for one day per month,
beginning. Gov. Bentley
said his office was informed of the Federal investigation last week. He
said politicians were attempting to "politicize" an
Alabama budget issue because of a political agenda.
This USDOT investigation
is nothing more than a
weak attempt to embarrass
the people of Alabama and
exploit our state in the
name of a political agenda.
I am confident that the
USDOT investigation will
find no basis for the claims
of discrimination. It is time
for the Obama Administration and aspiring national
politicians to listen to facts,
stop wasting taxpayers' dollars and put the political
agendas away," was Bentley’s response.
Meanwhile, a civil rights group
filed a federal lawsuit last
week challenging Alabama's photo voter ID law
itself. The lawsuit calls it an
infringement on voting
rights and an attempt to
suppress the influence of
black and Hispanic voters
by requiring a picture ID.

Local scholarship to
benefit local graduates
By Alton Mitchell
Winter break is drawing near for students at
local high schools and
while many are thinking
about taking the time away
from class to relax. Several
high school seniors are debating on which route to
take in life post-graduation.
Of those seniors that will
be exiting local high
schools in just a few short
months many are thinking
about continuing their educational goals and going on
to a college, university, or
technical school. One local
organization has partnered
with the City of LaFayette
to help ease the cost of an
education for a couple select local students.
The Alabama Municipal Electric Authority is offering
three
local
scholarships to graduating
seniors in LaFayette. The
scholarships
will
be
awarded in two categories
they include two for regular
scholarships and one for attendance to a technical
school.
The requirements for
the scholarships are that the
applying students’ parents
or guardian must be a customer in an AMEA member
city
electric
department. The applicant
must also attend a college,
university, or technical
school located in the state
of Alabama. The final requirement is that the student must be a graduating
high school senior.
At Monday night’s
LaFayette city council
meeting
members
of
LaFayette’s city council
made special mention of
the scholarship program
which the city government
has supported in years past.
Council members are hoping for a good turnout for
students interested in applying for the scholarship.
The year before last sadly
LaFayette did not have an
applicant receive the scholarship because of a lack of
applicants.
The scholarships give
$2,500 to a local high
school graduating senior.
The deadline for applying
is February 1st of 2016.
Applications will be judged
on a basis that includes
grades, financial need,
community involvement,
and work experience. Winners and non-winners will
be notified by mail in midApril. Applications for the
scholarship can be picked
up at high schools in participating areas or online at
AMEA’s website. Applicants should ensure that
they cover all the details required in the application,
incomplete applications
will be disqualified.
The Old Farmers Almanac
By Paul Richardson
Friday, January 20,
1961, John Kennedy delivered his inaugural speech in
Washington D.C. The winter up to that point had been
mild. But The Old Farmer’s
Almanac, printed and distributed months before inauguration day, predicted
freezing temperatures and
snow for the capital city on
this day. Not many really
took the Almanac seriously,
but as the snow came down
on the parade, a lot of people became instant believers.
Of course, that was
then and this is now, but
true to more than two centuries of tradition, The Almanac has made some dire
predictions for this coming
winter, “Super cold with
tons of snow across the na-
tion in January and February,” including the usually
sunny south Land.
It even goes so far as to
say “California can expect
above normal rainfall this
winter.” Everyone knows
what a blessing that would
be.
The
Almanac’s
weather predictions are
based on a secret formula
that founder Robert B.
Thomas designed using
solar cycles, climatology,
and meteorology using 30year averages compiled by
government agencies.
But
Meteorologists
generally frown on The Almanac's forecasts as being
too unscientific to be worth
much.
We shall see.

What part of “Fear Not” don’t
you understand?
By Roger Campbell
Who would have thought a children’s Christmas program would make such a lasting impression on me? I’ve been going to programs like this one for more
than half a century. Well, not quite like this one.
There I was sitting a few rows back from the stage at the children’s Christmas special at our church, laughing at the cute antics of the toddlers singing carols in
their pajamas, totally unprepared for what was to come when those a bit older would get into the act.
I should have known we were in for some creative comedy in this kid’s Christmas program when two of the actors came center stage to explain the taxing by
the Roman Empire that brought Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem, fulfilling the prophecy of Micah 5:2 about the place where the promised Savior would be born.
“What’s taxing?” asked one.
“How much money do you have?” replied the other.
“A dollar,” said the confused questioner.
“Give it to me,” demanded the tax collector-actor, the not-so-subtle truth of his line pleasing the audience and nearly bringing the house down with laughter.
But the real mind-sticker for me came later when the angel of the Lord appeared to shepherds who were watching their flocks on a dark hillside to tell them of
the birth of Christ in Bethlehem’s stable. The shepherds were frightened by this heavenly visitor and the light that engulfed them, but the angel reassured them saying, “Fear not; for, behold I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people” (Luke 2:10).
The young shepherd-actors overdid their portrayal of fear a bit, so the irritated angel thundered: “I SAID, FEAR NOT!” Then added, “WHAT PART OF ‘FEAR
NOT’ DON’T YOU UNDERSTAND?”
What a question to consider at Christmas! Why are we afraid?
We may be afraid because we aren’t sure God loves us. Trials have swept in on us, taking us by surprise, and we wonder if God cares. Few people have trouble believing God loves them when things are going well, but things do not always go well. Joseph thought his world was falling apart when he discovered Mary
was going to have a baby, but then put away his fears when he learned this was all part of God’s plan for him and Mary…and for us all.
We may be afraid because we think the obstacles to our happiness are too big for God to handle. Mary was troubled when Gabriel appeared to tell her she was
to give birth to the Savior. How could this be? How could a virgin bear a child? What would Joseph, her husband-to-be, think? Would this mean the end of her
dreams?
Not at all. God would work out the details. She didn’t need to understand. “For with God nothing shall be impossible,” said the angel (Luke 1:37).
We may be afraid because we have not begun to walk by faith. We’re trembling because we’re not trusting. Mary didn’t need to be afraid because she had
found favor with God. And, because Christ entered history at Bethlehem, fulfilling the promises given to the prophets, we can find favor with Him too. We can
accept the “fear nots” of the Bible by faith, even when we don’t fully understand them.
