Educa- ountry THE ALLEN ADVOCATE, MAY 14, 2015 -PAGE 2 C Comments by Bill Robinson, Publisher Graduation Day 2015 . . . Degrees are important but what you have in your heart is much more important than what you have in your head. I hope every senior passed their finals but I also want to share a story about one student that didn’t. THE FINAL I FAILED “Finals week had arrived with all its stress. I had been up late cramming for an exam. Now, as I slumped in my seat, I felt like a spring that had been wound too tight. I had two tests back-to-back, and I was anxious to get through with them. At the same time I expected to be able to maintain my Straight-A grade point average. As I waited impatiently for the prof to arrive, a stranger walked up to the blackboard and began to write. “Due to a conflict, your professor is unable to give Masons & FCCLA team up for Gun Raffle The Allen Masonic Lodge #81 is teaming up with Allen FCCLA to raffle a Remington 870 Express 12-gauge pump shotgun.

Cab Trucks) you your test in this classroom. He is waiting for you in the gymnasium.” Oh, great, I thought. Now I have to walk clear across campus just to take this stupid exam. One of the reasons I had decided to attend this church-affiliated college was the chance to take courses in religion as electives. Growing up in the church, faithfully reading my Bible every day, and having parents who talked Bible all of the time had made everything I had heard in this class on the parables of Jesus just old stuff. The entire class was scurrying out the door and rushing to the gym. No one wanted to be late for the final, and we weren’t wasting time talking. The route to the gym took us past the hospital. There was a man stumbling around in front of it. I recognized him as the young blind man whose wife had just given birth to a baby in that hospital. He had been there before, but he must have become confused. Oh well, I thought to myself. Someone will come along soon and help him. I just don’t have time to stop now. So I hurried along with the rest of my class on our way to take that final exam. As we continued down the sidewalk, a woman came rushing out of a nearby bookstore. She had a baby on one arm, a stack of books on the other, and a worried look on her face. The books fell onto the sidewalk, and the baby began to cry as she stooped to pick them up. She should have left that kid at home, I thought. I dodged her as the class and I rushed along. Just around the next corner someone had left a dog on a leash tied to the tree. He was a big, friendly mutt, and we had all seen him there before, but today he couldn’t quite reach the pan of water left for him. He was training at his leash and whining. I thought, what a cruel pet owner would tie up a dog and not leave his water where he could reach it? But I hurried on. As we neared the gym, a car passed us and parked close to the door. I recognized the man who got out as one of the maintenance crew. I also noticed he left the lights on. “He’s going to have a problem when he tries to start that car to go home tonight,” the fellow next to me said. By that time we were going I the doors of the gym. The maintenance man waved a greeting to us and disappeared down one of the halls. We found seats close to where our professor waited. The professor stood with his arms folded, looking at us. We looked back. The silence became uncomfortable. We all knew his tests were also teaching tools, and we wondered what he was up to. He motioned toward the door and in walked the blind man, the young mother with her baby, a girl holding the big dog on a leash, and the maintenance man. These people had been planted along the way in an effort to test whether or not the class has grasped the meaning behind the story of the man who fell among thieves. We all failed. All of us should do our best not to fail the important “finals” of life. —CC— AN OLD MAN AND A BOY “Life has a cheerful meaning, Tho’ your time’s a-wearin’ thin, ‘cause you’re lookin’ back with pleasure, Tho’ you’re just about done in. You heels are leanin’ over To the other side a bit, But you’re full of satisfaction Tho’ it’s almost time to quit. You’ve got a lot of young ‘uns, And they’ve got young ‘uns, too. You’re nary very lonesome Tho’ it’s almost time you’re through, Your face is lean and wrinkled And your hair has long been gray, And you’ve never been the same old man, Since Grandmaw passed away. But I hope I’ll learn your lesson, To grin and bear it, too, And have the same outlook on life, That seems a part of you. “I guess you think us youngsters Are a pretty fickle lot— That we raise the curtain on the stage Before we have a plot’ That our brains are drained and drying, Like picked grapes out in the sun; That we sneak off to go fishin’ Before the chores are done; That we aren’t the sturdy people That you folks used to be, For instead of felling might oaks, We spend weekends at the sea. We don’t ride in horse-pulled buggies, Or enjoy a plate of beans, And we’ll raise our voice in protest O’er a dish of turnip greens. You think we live in idleness, Of love and sweet caress, And that we’re very asinine, Or I think you do . . . I guess?” “No, son,” the old man uttered Through his weather-beaten lips, “You’re pillars of this land, And as strong as ironclad ships. You’re the same as generations Of the sturdy men and true, Who made this lave a haven, And your weak are mighty few. We’re happy, son, us tired old men, To make you boys our heirs, And we’ll find divine contentment As we climb those golden stairs, And then look down upon you, And you so-called fickle lot, And see the wonders you have done, And the good that you have brought.” He paused and wet his lips and said: “Son, I once was fickle, too, And had the same outlook on life, That seems a part of you.” Now Accepting New Patients!

Because of the storms we had Friday night, we had no electricity. We had some damage in the area but thank God no one was hurt. It happened so quickly but will take a while to clean up. We want to thank the county workers and the electric people for working on Saturday to get the roads cleared. Since Truby can play by ear our music was as good as ever. We sang the old songs that everyone knew the words to. Sara ,Matt, and Gary sang “ It is Well with my Soul.” for our special. We honored our mothers with flowers and books. Our oldest mom was Ruth, our youngest was Jessica, and Murphy had the most children. We know how much our mothers and grandmothers contribute to a child’s spiritual growth. Sorority meet at Rocky Top Winery Allen sorority members Cindi Sanders, Sue Boyd, Jill Kaminski, Joy Anderson, Cindy Davis, Jennifer Smith, Carla Kramer and Danielle O’Daniel met our hostess for the evening, Wilma Harden, at Rocky Top Winery for our meeting May 8th. The crazy weather may have moved the festivities inside but with freshly grilled hamburgers, chips, pineapple cream angel food cake, strawberry cake and one amazing view we really didn’t mind. Thank you, Wilma, for the wonderful food and great time. We will be providing desserts on May 25th for the Memorial Day Veterans’ Luncheon at the Masonic Lodge. Our next and final meeting for the year is May 28th and will be a Mexican potluck dinner. Don’t forget it is also secret sister reveal... Can’t wait to see everyone there.

Golf Camp at Eccentric Duffer The Eccentric Duffer golf course, 13205 CR 1550 (Reeves Road), Ada, will be holding a Golf Camp on May 25th thru 29th. Cost of the five day session is $65 per person. For more information call (580) 332-4950 or (580) 3102121. Bro. Larry’s message was taken from Psalm 51:113 and was entitled “Have Mercy on Me, O God.” All sin is ultimately sin against a holy God. People may be involved or offended in the process. Innocent people may suffer as a result of my evil choices. I may be tempted to justify my actions. Until I take that difficult look within and own my responsibility, I will not be healed. I can count on God’s unfailing mercy. He really is for us. Receiving the mercy of God may not exempt us from the judgment of people. We have all failed at some point, but we can easily judge those who have failed at a different one. Only God can change us. He can create in us a new heart. He can restore us. Our Memorial Day service will be held May 24 at 2:00. Donations will be taken. Our Bible School is scheduled for June 1-5 from 9-11:30 am. We want all the kids in the area to come. We will have games, Bible study, snacks, singing and a good time.

Officials concluded that more than one tornado ripped through the town, tearing off roof tops, severely damaging downtown buildings, completely destroying at least six homes and causing severe damage to almost every residence within a one and onehalf mile radius. Electric light poles were snapped, power lines were down Evening before Mother’s Day and there was flooding in many areas of the community. Unique among the events that happened during the storm is the story of the Bible in the Window. Kathy Needham, owner of a boutique shop featuring women’s clothing and unique gifts, had filled the window of her store with some of the best items in the shop. She always tried to make the windows attractive and this was a special week for buying a mother some special gift 140 x 170 ft lot - Black's Addition, Allen - $11,00 1350 sq ft. well maintained 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath, central h/a, large fenced-in back yard, detached double covered carport, storage bldg reduced to $79,900 and she had tried to make them unusually attractive this week. Since the shop opened, one special spot in the window display was reserved for an old Bible. The Bible itself had a special significance. One day, a friend and neighbor who had lost his wife, called Kathy to see if she would like to have some of the wife’s things. When Kathy arrived she noticed the Bible among them. She asked if he was getting rid of it also, and he replied that he did not believe anyone would want it, as it had the wife’s name written inside the cover, and he gave the Bible to her.

The evening of the storm she was at home with her family northwest of Healdton. They noticed the bad clouds and soon they received a call that Healdton had been hit by the storm. She and her husband drove into town to check on her shop. They drove through a ton of debris and water to reach town and found the entire front window of her shop had blown out. Glass was all over the sidewalk and all inside the shop. Every item of clothing, purses and gift items, had blown from the window. With flashlights to light the way, they walked through the water and broken glass on the sidewalk, to survey the damage. They saw the Bible still on its stand. They were amazed to see it open to the same pages as it had been before. There was not a single piece of glass or any watermarks on any of the pages. It was completely dry. There were some injuries in the area due to the storm but not one life was lost due to the supercell storm that raged over Healdton on the evening of May 8, 1993. The Bible continued to be displayed in the restored window of Kathy’s store among beautiful clothing and gifts as long as her store was open. The Non Cemetery Fund is accepting donations for the upkeep and mowing of the cemetery.

THE ALLEN ADVOCATE, MAY 14, 2015 -PAGE 5 One Pharmacist’s View A s most of my readers know, I get my medical care up at the Oklahoma City VA. I guess they do a pretty good job, I am after all still alive and 80. It’s a pretty big facility giving care in all sorts of disciplines and they even do open heart surgeries up there. Even more impressive to me and my wife is their Canteen on the main floor. This little federally operated store offers for sale everything from clothing to flat screen TVs. Men’s suits and women’s jewelry. All at PX-like prices. It’s a very busy little place with two checkout lines that are always busy with eager veterans lined up waiting to pay out. I wondered what they do with all that money. And I’m pretty sure there’s a lot of it. G len Bates must have Just a little VA Canteen wondered the same thing. He became the manager of a VA Canteen up in Detroit in May, 2008. Glen kept that job until March of 2013 when a problem arose. Nearly $400,000 went missing. Federal auditors discovered that Glen Bates had sticky fingers and expensive tastes. Over a span of time he had developed a taste for lap dances for which he often spent $500 a whack. In fact, one lap dancer (Ashley) really caught his eye and he often engaged her to spend a night with him. I guess he must have been scared of the dark. But overnights from Ashley were costly. Mister Bates said he didn’t steal that much and that he had only taken about Light from God’s Word $150,000 over the stealing span of his management. As far as crimes go this one wasn’t too bad (after all this is Detroit) so Glen was released on a $10,000 unsecured bond and so far has stayed out of jail. How did he steal it? Well, Bates took money he took in off the sale of commemorative military hats, vending machines and a few other retail sales. I wonder if he will plead for clemency on account of being a veteran? Now that I know what they do with the money collected at the canteen in Detroit, I still wonder who gets all that cash up at Oklahoma City and I wonder if they need a manager. Just wondering. I read this week that the investigation into the heart care portion of the VA Hospital in OKC is complete now. Since I’m a graduate of this particular service up there I read the story with interest and was glad to see it was open again. I can hardly wait. Or perhaps I can. Best I could tell they were doing real good work but the death rate was pretty high for these patients. I still don’t know just how high it was but the thought did cross my mind that most of those old guys up there are just that — old. Plus, veterans aren’t the most sought-after bunch of guys if you are looking for examples of good health. I have a good look at these guys pretty often and it seems a large percentage of them love their cigarettes more than good health hab- the praise of men more than the praise of God.” (John 12:42-43) Surely, it is a mistake to blindly follow along with the majority of people! The majority will be lost (Matthew 7:13-14) Jesus said “narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are “Oh, to have the wisdom few who find it.” (Matt of Solomon!” How many 7:14) It is so sad (and heartof us have exclaimed this breaking) that the majority when faced with a difficult won’t even try to find the decision? King Solomon truth, but will simply follow was given wisdom from along on the broad way that God and he excelled in lead to destruction. (Matt wisdom above all men. (1 7:13) Kings 4:29-34) Along with wisdom, God also gave him long life, riches and honor.

Junk food and a lot of alcohol may be part of their daily diet in many cases. Most of their exercise may well come from shopping in the local canteen (oops, there’s that canteen again) probably buying yet another commemorative military hat and a large cola. Maybe The Daily Oklahoman should run an investigative series on the VA Canteen in Oklahoma City and lay off the heart surgical ward. After all, those boys have to hone their skills someplace and we veterans need to remember that we can’t live forever. With that in mind allow me to remind you to attend church Sunday.

Wesley Bain & Abigail Harris THE ALLEN ADVOCATE, MAY 14, 2015 -PAGE 7 2015 Calvin Prom Rebecca Kiogima & Justin Holman Kylee Turpin & Kristen Stringfellow HCCD presents Critter’s Crossroads at Calvin The Hughes County Conservation District gave a presentation to the Calvin 4H After School Program over one of their new educational resource trunks titled “Critters Crossroads”. The 54 students and 7 adults learned about the different types of animals, how to tell the difference between similar tracks and how to read the signs that animals leave behind. The students broke into groups to compete against each other for the top “Extreme Tracker” 1st place team. Each group read the track cards and guessed which and how many animals were at the site and what types of interactions they had. The students then tried to identify which animal was represented by three different signs: tracks, scat and skulls. The District received a grant from the Ouachita Mountains Resources, Conservation & Development (RC&D) Council which helped purchase the items for this new educational resource trunk which will be used at area schools. Ouachita Mountains RC&D covers all of southeast Oklahoma. The District would like to express their thanks for the funding on this important program. For further information on this educational program or on any other program, please contact the Hughes County Conservation District at 405-379-2570 or by email at hughesccd@conservation.ok.gov.
