Council mulls over water,

sewer adjustment ordinances
BY NANCY SPENCER
DHI Media Editor
nspencer@delphosherald.com
DELPHOS Ordinances concerning adjustments to water and sewer billing were heard on first reading Monday
evening during Delphos City Council.
The measures were sponsored by the
Board of Control, consisting of the
mayor and safety service director.
The ordinance replaces a policy currently used to determine adjustments to
water and sewer bills.
Water adjustments will only be for
the present billing quarter and usage due
to a leak must exceed 200 percent of the
average of the users last 12 quarters
(three years) and no less than the highest usage with the last 12 quarters. The
leak must occur between the shutoff and
the building.
A point of contention in the ordinance
was the dollar cap on what the Board of
Control can adjust. On first reading, the
ordinance read $500. Councilman Del
Kemper said he thought the cap was too
low and council would be inundated with
adjustment requests that were ultimately
the responsibility of the Board of Control.
This is an administrative decision
and what you guys were elected and
appointed to do, Kemper said. Well
be doing these all the time.
Councilman Josh Gillespie said he
didnt see anything wrong with council
begin made aware of the adjustments.
Its councils job to look at incoming
and outgoing monies and this is a way to
do that, he said.
Safety Service Director Shane
Coleman said he understands the issue
falls with the administration but he

wanted some guidelines.
I am not comfortable writing off
$10,000 or $11,000 without councils
approval, he said.
Council will discuss a monetary limit
on second reading of the ordinance.
Sewer billing adjustments will be
granted for irrigation systems, lawn
watering and filling swimming pools.
For irrigation systems, the resident or
business must install a 3/4-inch tap (at
the owners or developers cost) with
a separate meter for the purpose of
watering grass, sod and/or shrubbery
(landscaping areas). There will be a
quarterly service charge based on the
current water rates with no sewer service
charged on that meter.

Old Country Girl

Wallenhorst turns 100
BY STEPHANIE GROVES
DHI Media Staff Writer
sgroves@delphosherald.com
DELPHOS - Sally Wallenhorst was born

on Sept. 3, 1914,and grew up on a farm
outside of Delphos with her parents Ben and
Josephine Knippen and three siblings, Ruby,
Evelyn and Norman.
Im just an old country girl that grew
up milking cows and feeding chickens, she
kidded. I couldnt go to school after I finished eighth grade. I was 16 years old then.
This wasnt an uncommon practice
back then. Wallenhorst said in the fall, she
shocked corn and wheat.
Her childhood wasnt all about work.
She loved playing Rummy, Bid Euchre and

Pinochle. She also enjoyed playing softball
with the school kids.
Wallenhorst loved going to the Allen
County Fair when it was on North Main
Street in Delphos.
I was there most every night. I loved to
walk the streets and see everything that was
going on and watching the parade, she said
with a big smile. My favorite ride was the
swings. They had long chains I would hold
onto while swinging out far and high off the
ground.
She said she remembers the really good food
Delphos St. Johns would cook for the fair.

SPENCERVILLE Chief Darin Cook introduced the

newest member of the Spencerville Police Department, K-9
officer Bear, to village council members Monday night.
Cook said Bear is a 1 1/2 year old pure-bred German
Shepherd, is passive-alert trained he will not attack but
rather track and sit when he finds what is being tracked
and he will be certified in general patrol, suspect/lost person
tracking and drug tracking by October. Bears commands will
be in German.
Weve been training two to three hours everyday, going
to the nursing home letting people pet him, Cook detailed.
My granddaughter hides in the woods on our property and he
tracks and finds her and wants to play.
Cook said Bear loves playing Frisbee and that is his positive reinforcement.
Cook also said with the onset of the new school year,
the department will have a heavy presence before and after
school,
We will not tolerate speeders, he said. From Wisher
Drive to the back side of the school, we will write tickets.
He said all officers are set for the updated certification
training in OC spray, Taser use policy and retractable baton
this coming Saturday at the station. Also, firearms re-certification is slated for Sept. 2.

Council discusses proposed sewer and water district

BY STEPHANIE GROVES
FORT JENNINGS Members of

the Putnam County Regional Water/Sewer
District spoke with village council members about the proposed sewer and water
district Tuesday night.
Putnam County Commissioner John
Love said they are making rounds to 15
councils.
Linda Amos from Poggemeyer Design
group said by participating in the district, it
will save taxpayer dollars by taking overhead costs and spreading them across the
district.
Systems are owned by users and are
not bound by boundaries, Amos said. Its
cost-effective and every district is uniquely
formed and operated.
Mayor Jim Smith said in Fort Jennings,
they have no water system and if the district takes ownership, would that enhance
our chances of receiving grant monies if
we did participate?
It would be a big plus for us since we
cant afford to provide a product (water)
at a reasonable price for our residents,

Smith said.
Attorney Rex Huffman said it would be
beneficial for the village.
Smith said it would be better to apply
for grants for 20,000 people verses 500.
If Jennings and Ottoville combine and
houses within the tdownships in between
the two villages participate, we could pick
up many more customers.
Chief Ethyl Vaughn reported that Fort
Fest went well with no incidences. She
said the department received a lot of compliments on its coverage of the festival
from the residents. Vaughn also said the
Parish festival went well.
Park Board Vice President Kari
Amstutz said that Fort Fest went really
well and it was too early to have any figures on the event. She reported that they
sold 1,200 gun raffle tickets and thanked
council members for their assistance in
selling the tickets.
Jerry (Siefker, Park Board President)
will have numbers at the next meeting,
she said.
As discussed during the October 2013
council meeting, Mayor Jim Smith report-
ed a washout area between State Route

634 and the river and an additional three
areas close to State Route 190 which could
cause potential problems in the future.
During Tuesdays meeting, Smith reported
that the sewer line at State Route 634 to the
river has been repaired.
He said there are three areas in the roads
in the village one at the post office, at
the bus garage and near Smiths office
that are in need of repair. Smith spoke of
employing Gary Hermiller to camera the
tile and see what kind of damage they may
need to repair before excavating.
Maintenance Supervisor Ted Wrasman
said the sink hole by the bus garage has
been there for close to a year.
Smith told council members all the
sealant has been done to the streets, except
for Musketeer Drive, which they will take
care of next year.
Council members and Smith have been
discussing purchasing a new sewer pump
at a cost of $8,500 installed. Wrasman said
the old Gorman pump has been problematic in the recent past.
It would include retro-fitting the
pump, he said. A bracket would have
to be changed and electrical sensors

installed.
Smith said he would like to have the
same pumps on each side. Council discussed purchasing the pump and installation and waiting a few months to install it.
All agreed it was a good idea.
Councilman Jeff Swick told council,
We would have to make sure there
would be no up charge if we would pay
for the installation now.
It wont be built until we order
it since it is built specifically for us,
Wrasman said. Theres about a $900 difference between the pump we bought last
year and the price of the new one.
Smith and council members discussed electrical aggregation and he said
he would draft a letter to go out to residents by Sept. 1.
We will have our public meetings in
September and October to inform people
as to what the concept of aggregation is,
Smith said. We will have it on the ballot
and see if residents choose to participate in
the program.
Council members also passed the 2015
Budget.

Elida BOE learns of new

enrichment program
In the Deli
BY CYNTHIA YAHNA
DHI Media Correspondent
news@delphosherald.com
ELIDA A new school organization was
proposed to Elida School Board Tuesday.
Katherine Glenn of Ohio Model United
Nations Program explained how the initiative
works.
Students in grades 6-8 participate in the
Jr. Ohio Model United Nations program and
students in grades 9-12 in the senior program,
she said. The total number of students is usually two students per grade. The cost is $185
which is absorbed by the student. We also have
fundraising ideas to help with the cost.
This program is a 3-day simulation in which
student delegates represent selected member
nations of the United Nations and participate in
writing, presenting and debating original resolutions that deal with current world problems,
issues and political situations. The students who
attend the program benefit by becoming more
conscientious, concerned and confident citizens
of the world. Many students have received
scholarships and fellowships as a result of participating in the program.
In the legislative liaison report given by
board member Pat Schymanski, he said he
spoke with Congressman Jim Jordans chief
educational adviser Susan Manchester about the
Common Core and state/local rights.
Congressman Jordan does support local
control, so he is against federal mandates
that would direct education or curriculum,
Manchester said. Among other items, there
is discussion at the federal level to develop a
voucher program for special education and he
relayed his concerns with that type of program
and used many examples of charter school
money issues as part of his reasoning to lobby
against this type of voucher. Also, the federallymandated test sources relates to control the test

Village Administrator Sean Chapman

gave council his update on the progress
of the water treatment plant and said the
sand filter delivery has been delayed due
to unfinished electrical work. He said
he anticipates the electrical work to be
completed this week and the filters will
be delivered on Monday next week.
The electrical wiring is about 98percent complete and the building now
has its own power and we are able
to turn lights on inside the building,
Chapman said. The generator inspection passed and it has been partially
connected to the normal electrical grid.
Also, the plumbing and HVAC are
close to 98-percent complete and most
of the treatment components have their
identification tags and piping labels. The
laboratory is about 90-percent complete,
with only the furniture needing installed.
In addition, all air lines are done, chemical feed room is about 98-percent complete and all piping has been completed.
As discussed at the Aug. 4 council
meeting, the treatment plant should go
live around the middle of September,
Chapman reiterated.
Chapman said the last day for the
swimming pool to be open will be
Wednesday. The pool has been open
with abbreviated hours due to lower
attendance and interference with fair and
other summer activities.

Program was held recently with three

bidders vying for the work. The lowest
bid came in from Bluffton Paving at
$77,853 with two other bids falling in
the range of $92,000 - $96,000.
The engineers estimate was
$102,015 and our grant was approved for
a maximum of $78,000, he explained.
The percentage split is 70/30; therefore, the village will be responsible for
30 percent of the original bid amount.
The engineer has reviewed the bids
and recommends that the contract be
awarded to Bluffton Paving.
Chapman and Mayor P.J. Johnson decided that since the bids came in a lot lower
than anticipated, they will seek quotes for
work outside of the OPWC project.
The mayor suggested paving the
drive leading to the new water treatment
plant and the pool, Chapman said.
Bluffton Paving submitted a quote for
$33,000 to pave the entire driveway
leading to the pool and plant from the
Broadway Street sidewalk back to the
pool entrance at a width of 18 feet.
Chapman said he has been in contact
with the villages water tower manufacturer and the new authorized representative for this area, regarding the issues
- which may require a complete reseal
of the interior - that were discovered
during the villages five year inspection
in July. He is currently working with
Mid-Atlantic Storage on performing an
interior inspection of the villages water
tank.

Mid-August marks the time

when many of our high school
graduates pack up and head off
to college for the first time. This
time of year is always accompanied by packing lists and to-do
lists. One item our students
should be sure not to forget: their
meningitis vaccination.
People of any age can get
meningitis, but those most at
risk include very young children,
adolescents and especially, those
living in close quarters like college dormitories. The federal
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) recommend
the meningococcal vaccine for
everyone aged 11 to 18 years old.
Those who are headed off to college should have a booster shot if
their original dose was given at
least five years earlier.
Current state law requires students in on-campus housing at
public universities to tell administrators whether they have been
vaccinated for meningitis. There
is currently no legal mandate in
Ohio that college students be
vaccinated, though some other
states have taken that step. In
recent years, there have been several cases of meningitis at Ohio
colleges, some fatal. Nationally,
about 100 cases of meningitis
occur on campuses each year. To
protect students, some colleges
require proof of vaccination as a
condition of enrollment.
Meningitis is an extremely
personal topic for my family.
My 5-year-old niece Tess passed
away from this disease, leading
me to sponsor Senate Bill 275
to create Meningitis Awareness
Day each year on March 9.
Because meningitis is relatively
rare, parents and students may
be unaware just how deadly it
can be, and unaware that it is
preventable with vaccination.
Meningitis Awareness Day is one
step toward helping ensure that
other families will not know the
devastation of losing a child to
meningitis.
Bacterial meningitis, the most
serious form, can cause inflammation of the lining of the brain
and spinal cord, a blood infection, or both. The disease can
be difficult to diagnose because
symptoms like headache, fever
and nausea can be similar to those
of more common conditions like
the flu. But meningitis becomes
serious very quickly, and can kill
within 48 hours. Up to 15 percent of those who get meningitis
will die, and of those who survive, one in five will have lasting
effects like brain damage, hearing

loss, or limb amputation.
I
believe
Meningitis
Awareness Day is important
because there is a lot of misinformation spread about vaccines.
Whether it comes from the internet or a misguided celebrity, this
spreads confusion and fear about
the potential side effects of vaccination. Im here to tell you the
effects of meningitis are absolutely devastating, while preventing this deadly disease is as easy
as getting a shot. Lives can be
saved by raising awareness about
the severity of meningitis and
increasing the vaccination rate for
this terrible disease.
When Governor John Kasich
signed Senate Bill 275 into
law, he turned to me and said,
We can do more, cant we? I
assured him we could, and that
Im committed to doing so. I
will be seeking the advice of
public health experts and others
as I personally learn more about
meningitis and what can be done
to prevent it. I recently read that,
according to Dr. Michael Brady,
chair of the department of pediatrics at Columbus Nationwide
Childrens Hospital, children
too young to receive the meningococcal vaccine can be protected against meningitis by the
Haemophilus influenzae type b
vaccine. This is just one example
of the type of information we
need to put in the hands of parents to help them make informed
choices about their childs healthcare.
I thank my colleagues in the
General Assembly for supporting Senate Bill 275 and making
Meningitis Awareness Day a reality. Now as my family remembers Tess each year on March
9, we will also know that there
is indeed something we can do
to help keep other children safe
and healthy. To help honor Tess
memory, I encourage all of our
college students to get vaccinated
before heading off to school this
year. Help us all stop another
avoidable tragedy by taking the
time to get knowledgeable about
this disease.

Assembly as a member of the

Tips for parents:

To post or not to post?
BY BARBARA ORTUTAY
AP Technology Writer
NEW YORK (AP) Privacy-wary parents are increasingly

pausing before they post photos, names and other information
about their wee ones on social media. Some are choosing a complete blackout, while others opt for nicknames and a few carefully
selected snapshots.
Here are some social media tips for parents, relatives and
friends.
ASK FIRST, POST LATER
If you don't know how a parent feels about having photos of
their kids posted on Facebook, Instagram or elsewhere, ask before
uploading a photo and before you tag the parents in a photo. This
goes even for close relatives. Actually, it's not a bad idea to ask
everyone you post a photo of if they're cool with it, especially if
the snaps were taken at a party, swimming pool or any other less
buttoned-up situation. It can prevent awkward conversations later.
LIMIT AUDIENCES
Facebook's privacy settings are complex, but they also offer
granular settings that let you pick who can see your updates. One
way to do this: Create a "secret" group and add the members you
want. The problem here is that anyone in the group can add new
members to the group.
Another way to limit the audience of each post you share is to
click on the right tab under your update, which may currently say
"friends" or "public." Click on "custom" and choose which of your
Facebook friends you want to share with and which ones you'd
like to exclude. It's simpler on Instagram, where you can either
lock your account or set it to public.
TALK TO YOUR KIDS
Opinions on the age at which parents should start talking to
their kids about Internet and social media use vary. Some parents
start as soon as their child is old enough to use a smartphone,
which can be as early as 2 or 3 years. Amy Heinz, who blogs
about her kids, often talks to her 8-year-old about posts she writes
about him, but says her younger children, who are 5 and 3, know
about the blog but "don't have a concept" of what it means exactly.
Caroline Knorr, parenting editor at the nonprofit Common Sense
Media, waited until her son was 15 before posting a photo of him
on Facebook and asked his permission first.
GO THE OLD-FASHIONED ROUTE
Some parents opt for e-mailing or texting photos to one person or to a small group rather than sharing them more widely on
social media. Online storage services such as Google Drive and
Dropbox also let you distribute photos privately, as do photo-sharing sites such as Flickr. Of course, there's always the old-fashioned
snail mail method, if you can still find a place to print snapshots.
DON'T EMBARRASS THEM
That photo of your little one with pea soup all over her face,
or the one that shows her first time on the potty might be funny
at the time, but think about what she may think of the photo if it's
still online when she's a teen. Today's generation of parents did not
grow up with the reality that their private moments growing up
will be documented and often posted on the Internet for all eternity. Before posting a photo or anecdote, take a moment to imagine
a conversation about it with your child 10 or 15 years from now.

Canning season is in full swing. This past

week we canned hot peppers (Serrano), dill
pickles and salsa. I have a lot more tomatoes
that need to be used, and I still have plenty of
tomato juice, so I will make more salsa. What
a blessing to be able to fill all those empty
jars again.
We now have the rest of our little chicks.
We had 75 of them for two weeks and now 25
more layers came.
We will butcher
the 50 butchering
chickens in several
weeks. The other
50 will be laying
hens. Once they
start laying eggs
we will butcher our
old laying hens for
chicken broth. That
is always a big job.
In our community, which isnt very
big, there are five or
six weddings coming up in August
and September. So bear with me if I am talking a lot about weddings lately.
We have three wedding invitations on our
refrigerator right now. Daughter Elizabeths
friend Marietta will exchange vows with Enos
on August 28. We were surprised to receive
an invitation. Elizabeth and Timothy will be
tablewaiters at their wedding. It is a little over
two weeks away, and Elizabeth still needs to
sew her dress for the wedding.
Yesterday Paul and Edna were published
to be married on Sept. 24. When a couple is
published for marriage, the bishop announces
it in front of the church. Until then it is usually
kept secret, with only family members and
close friends knowing about it. We are invited
to this wedding as well. And we have niece
Elizabeth and Samuels invitation on there for
Sept. 19. The youth are usually invited to a 7
p.m. supper at all of these.
Its hard to believe Marietta will be getting
married. It seems like she and Elizabeth were
just young school-age girls! They had a lot of
fun times together, along with friends Linda
and Freda. Many nights when they stayed
here for the night, I wondered if they ever
slept. Now they all have special friends, and
Marietta is getting married. All four girls are
20 years old or will be soon. Life goes on.
Son Joseph, 12, will have surgery this week
to have his tonsils and adenoids removed. I
hope everything will go okay.
My husband, Joe, is working four-day
weeks at the RV factory. This week he will
only work three days so he can be at the hospital when Joseph has his surgery. Elizabeth,
Susan and Benjamin all left this morning for
their jobs. Benjamin is helping Susans friend
Mose at his saw mill. He enjoys it.
This week I will share a recipe for soft
pretzels. Elizabeth asked her friend LeAnna

Millers injury sting

Big Tens playoff hopes
By RALPH D. RUSSO
Associated Press
This is bigger than the Buckeyes.
Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller is
done for the season because of a shoulder
injury. The senior needs surgery to repair of torn
labrum.
Its a crushing blow on a few levels:
Miller is one of the best and most entertaining players in the country. He ran for 1,068
yards, passed for 2,094 and
accounted for 36 touchdowns.
He was a legitimate Heisman
Trophy contender. In the statement released by Ohio State making the news official, he said he
wants to return to Columbus for
another season.
I am on course to graduate
in December and I want to attend
graduate school, then return to
lead the Buckeyes next season. In
the meantime, I want to give all
the support I can to my coaches and teammates
as they chase a championship this season, he
added.
Its a nice sentiment but after two surgeries on his shoulder in less than a year, Millers
future as a quarterback at any level is in doubt.
And thats unfortunate.
For No. 5 Ohio State, a season that
had championship hopes both Big Ten and
national will now begin with a very different
feel. The Buckeyes are still conference contenders, though it could be argued they have now
ceded the role of Big Ten favorites to Michigan
State. Maybe.
Urban Meyer and his staff recruit better than
any program in the Big Ten. No roster in the

conference has more talent. Of course, it didnt
help the Buckeyes win the Big Ten last season.
Millers injury makes the Buckeyes prospects more uncertain. His presumptive replacement is redshirt freshman J.T. Barrett, a former
4-star recruit. Ohio State was already entering
the season with a rebuilt offensive line, looking for a No. 1 tailback to emerge and trying to
fix a defense that melted down late last season.
And even with all that, a Big Ten
championship doesnt seem out
of reach.
The national championship?
Thats a very different story, not
just for the Buckeyes but the
whole Big Ten.
At least one of the Big Five
conferences has to be left out
of the College Football Playoffs
final four. The Buckeyes were
the conferences best bet to get
through the regular season unbeaten. Now thats
much tougher. A weakened Ohio State also has a
trickledown effect to the rest of the conference.
Beating the Buckeyes becomes less impressive.
The Big Ten needs a dominant team to
emerge from a conference that has been a cut
below the Southeastern Conference and Pac-12
in recent years. Maybe No. 8 Michigan State
is that team. A victory at No. 3 Oregon would
certainly go a long way toward boosting the
Spartans and the Big Tens credentials.
With Miller gone, the Big Ten could be in a
serious bind if the Spartans dont come through
in Eugene on Sept. 6.
Joe Gibbs: Tony Stewart

is a racers racer
By JENNA FRYER
Associated Press
HUNTERSVILLE, N.C.
Joe Gibbs is waiting for Tony
Stewart to emerge from seclusion to reach out to his former
driver.
Stewart has been in insolation since his car struck and
killed Kevin Ward Jr. in an
Aug. 8 sprint car race.
I didnt feel like it was
the right time (to call him) but
were all praying for him,
Gibbs said. We all love Tony.
I love what he did for us here.
We all know hes a racers racer
and hes big for our sport.
Stewart drove for Gibbs
from 1997 through 2008, winning Cup titles in 2002 and
2005 driving for Joe Gibbs
Racing. He left following the
2008 season when he was
offered an ownership stake at
Stewart-Haas Racing.
Gibbs said Tuesday he
learned very early in his tenure that sprint car racing was
Stewarts passion and the car
owner had to accept Stewarts
participation in other series.
He joked that all team meetings were disrupted by Stewart
updating the group on his
latest adventures outside of
NASCAR.
I had to spend 30 minutes
listening to him how he won
a dirt late model race and I
wanted to go, I dont care,
OK? Gibbs laughed. But he
was so excited. I came to the
conclusion that was him for
him to be happy and doing the
things that he wanted to do, he
was going to be racing.
Gibbs said Stewart was a
valuable member at JGR,and
when another employee was
struggling to cover the cost
of adopting a child, Stewart
gave him the needed funds.
He hoped as Stewart contin-
Stewart
ues his recovery process, more
examples of Stewarts softer
side will emerge.
Tonys got great courage. Hes smart. He loves this
sport. Hes totally focused on
it. He doesnt have distractions, Gibbs added. Hes
very important to our sport.
This is a horrible thing to have
happen for the Ward family,
for him.
Gibbs hires Carl Edwards
and Daniel Suarez: Carl
Edwards scrolled across a
stage at JGR and jokingly
yelled, Surprise!
There was no surprise whatsoever about his formal introduction Tuesday as a fourth
driver in the JGR Sprint Cup
lineup. The move had been
expected since at least May
and intensified last month
when Roush Fenway Racing
announced Edwards was not
returning in 2015.
Edwards, who has driven
for Roush for 12 years, will
join a new fourth Toyota team
for Gibbs next season. The No.
19 will be sponsored by Arris,
a telecommunications company, in 17 of the races.
JGR has been at three cars
since 2005 and has held off

expanding to the NASCARmaximum of four full-time
entries.
We felt like if we could get
Carl and we could get another
sponsor, that this was the right
time, Gibbs said.
Edwards had been through
a high-profile free agency once
before, in 2011 when he was in
the thick of the championship
hunt. He ultimately spurned
JGR in that bidding process to
sign an extension with Roush;
although the negotiations were
never a distraction, Edwards
lost the title that year to Stewart
on a tie-breaker.
Edwards hasnt been a title
threat since. He went winless in
2012 and missed the Chase for
the Sprint Cup Championship;
although he made two trips to
Victory Lane last season, he
finished last in the 13-driver
Chase field.
Edwards is currently ninth
in the Cup standings with two
wins. The Chase begins next
month and he said hes determined to close out his Roush
tenure with a championship for
the No. 99 team. But when the
season is over, his focus will
quickly turn to JGR, where he
saw an opportunity for stability
and consistency as a teammate
to Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin
and Matt Kenseth.
Sometimes youve just
got to shake things up, youve
got to do things differently,
Edwards said. When an
opportunity like this comes up
and the all the pieces come
together this perfectly, for me,
I didnt want to look back and
wonder what that would have
been like. I wanted to take the
opportunity and go see what I
could make of it.
DELPHOS A more
veteran-savvy Jefferson girls
soccer unit took advantage of
a far younger Van Wert crew,
opening the 2014 campaign
with a 13-0 mashing of the
Lady Cougars on a brilliant
Monday late afternoon at the
St. Johns Annex.
It was a nice seasonopening match for us. Van
Wert usually is a good one
but they are such a young
and inexperienced team right
now; they will get better,
Jefferson coach Josiah Stober
said. We got off really well.
What I liked was how the
things weve been working
on: communication, movement, just basic fundamentals; we took from practice
and executed on the field.
We were really moving the
ball well and that set up a lot
of breakaways. It wasnt just
one or two girls that did it all
but a number of them contributed. We know we have a
lot more work to do but this
is a nice way to get it going.
Van Wert coach Rich
Nouza gave the Wildcats all
the credit.
They played well: they
executed and that opened up
a lot of breakaways for their
offense. They were giving us
a lot of problems with their
speed up front, he explained.
We ironed out a few things
the second half, so that is a
positive. We are very, very
young and inexperienced
overall and were a definite
work in progress. This is
one of those matches where
you let it go right away after
learning important lessons. It
helps that we dont have time
to stew on it before we play
another match (Tuesday night
at home vs. Ottoville, a 9-0
loss).
The Red and White outshot their foe 29-2 on-goal
(34-2 total).
Jefferson scored at 35:48
on a connection between
senior Kylee Haehn to her
classmate, Logan Hamilton,
for a 1-0 lead.
At 31:09, Haehn as
happened far too often for
Nouzas liking got a 1-on1 with Sadie Zartman and
beat her from 15 yards for a
2-nil edge.
It became 3-0 at 23:03
when freshman Marquiss
Marquiss got her first varsity
goal on a 15-yarder.
On a steal in Cougar
space, Hamilton got free on a
run and fired a 12-yarder that
was true for a 4-0 edge.
On a lead pass from senior
Bailey Miller, classmate
Jordyn Radler got a 1-on-1
with the keeper and was true
from 12 yards.
It became 6-0 at 11:03
when senior Elisabeth Miller
connected with Haehn for a
run and a 12-yard shot.
The halftime score of 7-0
came thanks to a E. Miller
steal and short run, ending
in a 15-yarder inside the left
post.
Nouza switched to freshman keeper Camryn Nouza
the second half.
It took 2:17 for the Red
and White it make it 8-0,
courtesy of a Haehn-toMarquiss right-to-left cross
and a 6-yarder.
Just 51 ticks later, the
Wildcats had a 9-0 edge.
This time, Marquiss did the
delivery to Hamilton, who
slid a 12-yarder past the new
keeper.
At 34:38, Bailey Miller
got into the act once again,
feeding Marquiss on the left
wing and her open 12-yarder
found the right side of the
twine for a 10-0 edge.
Just 32 seconds ticked
off the Annex clock before
the score ballooned to 11-0.
Marquiss once more made a
great dribble down the right
side and and her 16-yarder
found the inside of the left
post.
The 12th goal came via a
left-to-right cross pass from
junior Brandy White to freshman Kaelin Anders, from
where she deposited a short

Wapakonetas speed, ball

When they would intercept
the pass, their counter-attack
was fast and precise with quick
counters up the wings and getting a cross into the box and
scoring. Wapak played in midseason form while we looked
like we were just starting our
season. When we put together
a string of passes, we
looked good, but we would
either make a mistake and
we were on our heels again.
Wapaks speed of play is one

Delphos native Dr. Harvey Chiles

recently assumed the duties of headmaster of Noblesse International School.
Either starting or running an international school has been on my bucket list
for the past 10 years. When the search
firm recruited me, it was a perfect match
for my experience, interests and their
need, Chiles said.
After a long conversation with his
family, his children and grandchildren,
he packed up and relocated to Angeles

Air Force Base, which is expanding due
to increased US military presence in the

NIS is in its seventh year of operation. A private school owned by Korean
businessmen, the school is the vision
of Ik Soon Lee, a former elementary
teacher in Korea who wanted to start a
private school that had high expectations
of students but was modeled on Western
curriculum.
The Korean model of public education has created a system with high
stress, high academic expectations and
low tolerance for failure of any kind.
It is viewed as a family failure if a
student does not succeed at a high level
and the disgrace of that failure often
leads to self-destruction.

Indiana University. His doctoral degree
is in educational leadership from Nova
Southeastern University, Ft. Lauderdale
Florida. Dr. Chiles has over 30 years of
experience as a public school teacher
and administrator. While Principal of
Richmond High School, Richmond,
Indiana, the school was named among
the finest high schools in the country

nominated by the Indiana Department
of Education as one of the finest schools

Dr. Chiles was the founding director of the Education Department at
Southwestern Illinois Community

Description
DEAR BRUCE: I own

a property and lease half the
space. The current tenant
wants to expand to the lot next
door. However, the township
says we need to install curbs
and sidewalks. This is ridiculous because it is on a main
highway. However, I want
to keep everyone happy and
have offered to help with the
high cost of installing what is
needed.
Is there any way I can
avoid all this cost? Is there any
way to fight the township on
this matter? -- T.W., via email
DEAR T.W.: To answer
your second question first, Is
there any way to fight the
township on this matter?:
Possibly, but generally speaking, it is a waste of time.
What has happened is that
subsequent to your current
arrangement, an ordinance
has been passed that says any
extension of use will require
that you install curbs and sidewalks. You may think this is
ridiculous because its on a
main highway, but thats not
material, and keeping everyone happy is not material
either.
Is there any way to avoid
this cost? I doubt it very seriously, except by passing it
on to the current tenant who
wants to expand his use,
which is perfectly appropriate.
If he wants the use, he will
have to pay.
DEAR BRUCE: In 1990,
my parents created a trust and
placed the family home in
it. When my mother passed
away in 2010, the trust was
dissolved and the family home
was placed in the name of my
sister and me with a right of
survivorship.
The value of the home
in 1990 was approximately
$150,000, and when my mother passed, it was approximately $215,000. Neither my sister
nor I live in the house or plan
to live in it since our elderly
father lives there and we live
out of state. At some point in
the future, we plan to sell the
house.
The question is whether
we owe tax on the sale of the
house and, if we do, what is
the basis? Is it when the trust
was established or when the
trust was dissolved? -- R.S.,
via email
DEAR R.S.: In 1990,
when your parents created the
trust, the house had an established value. You said when
your mother passed away 20
years later the value of the
house was approximately
$215,000, which is a difference of $65,000 from 1990.
At that point, the taxes should
have been paid on the $65,000.
If that wasnt the case, that
obligation is still buried into
the value passed on to you and
your sister. In the event that
one of you passes before the
house is sold, the remaining
heir will be responsible for
taxes on the entire $65,000
that is already accrued, plus
any difference in appreciation.

DEAR BRUCE: I hope
you can help us figure out
what to do. I am 76 years old,
and my husband is 78. We are
thinking about getting a trust
to avoid probate when we pass
away. We have been to many
seminars discussing this matter, and I still dont understand
why we would need one. We
have no have children, and we
would be leaving the money to
charity. -- H.L., via email
DEAR H.L.: I dont see
where you have anything to
concern yourself with. You
tied it up when you said you
will be leaving the money to a
charity you decide upon.
Approach the charity as
quickly as possible when
you make the decision and
explain that you are leaving
the money to it. The charity
will be responsible for paying
whatever money is required to
probate the will. Trust me, it
will be happy to do that with
its own lawyers and without
any expense to you.
DEAR BRUCE: I own a
condominium that is worth
around $65,000, according
to the appraiser. I want to
relocate to Michigan because
I was offered a better position in my company. I have
$35,000 left on the loan. A
nice young couple offered me
$55,000 cash.
Do you think I should settle for a $10,000 loss or wait
until a better offer comes?
What if a better offer doesnt
come? The housing market
doesnt seem to be very good.
-- Peter, via email
DEAR PETER: Your
problem is a simple one. The
appraisal of $65,000 is strictly
a matter of guessing and not
written in stone. You want to
go to Michigan for a better
job, you have $35,000 left
on the loan, and youve been
offered $55,000 cash. That
seems to be a no-brainer. It
would be different if the market was on a definite uphill,
but that doesnt seem to be the
case.
You never know when
you buy real estate whether
its going to go up, down or
stay the same. In this case, it
apparently went down. If your
investigation is correct, take
the $55,000, pay off the mortgage and get on with your new
life.
DEAR BRUCE: I think
I have an uncommon question for your column. If I
never worked before, will I be
able to collect Social Security
when I am in my senior years?
-- S.W., via email
DEAR S.W.: Your question is not as uncommon as
you may think. Heres an
example: It could be that a
very young woman marries,
immediately has children,
never worked, and elects to be
a stay-at-home mom. After the
children are raised, she then
decides to go to work.
She will first have to apply
for a Social Security number
if she hasnt had one up until
that time. Then, depending
upon how much money she
earned and if she has worked
a sufficient number of quarters, she will be able to collect
an amount that these numbers
indicate when the time comes.
Of course, she is also able
to apply to her husbands
account. She will be eligible
for some benefits depending
on his salary.

his third affair, he had two kids with the other

woman. He doesnt understand why I dont trust
him and why I insist on seeing his cellphone. The
last time I was able to get ahold of it, he broke
down the bathroom door trying to get it back.
He threatens to move out, and if he does, that
will be the last I hear from him. I would be
relieved if he went. I have so much anger toward
him. I love him, but at this point love doesnt have
anything to do with it.
I have asked him several times to leave, but
he just keeps saying hell be leaving on his own
terms. I cant continue like this anymore. He
brings out the worst in me and I hate it. What do I
do? -- HAD IT IN PHOENIX
DEAR HAD IT: That you have tolerated this
behavior for 12 years boggles my mind. Because
this philandering freeloader has resided with you
for so long, you may have to go through formal
eviction proceedings to get rid of him. You have
given him a free ride, and you may need the
services of a lawyer to pry him out of there. If you
do, consider it money well spent.
DEAR ABBY: If a spouse keeps photos of

want to be sure, the person you should ask is your
husband. After 50 years, the torch may be too
heavy to carry -- or completely out.

DEAR ABBY: Im married to the love of my

life. I cant imagine loving a man more than I love
Wayne, and I know he feels the same about me.
The problem is, hes always telling stories about
things he has done, including past relationships,
in graphic detail.
I have heard all of them repeatedly, and Im
sick of them. When I tell him this he says, Fine!
I wont talk to you anymore. Wayne never talks
about OUR past, present or future. How can I
get him to stop reliving the good ol days and
start focusing on our life together? -- CURRENT
EVENT IN KENTUCKY
DEAR CURRENT EVENT: Wayne may
react defensively when you say youre sick of
his stories because he feels you are criticizing
him. Perhaps if you told him that hearing him
dwell on past relationships is hurtful, he might be
willing to enlarge his repertoire.
If that doesnt help, its possible your husband
feels his best years are behind him. Past conquests
and adventures can be more fun to dwell on than
the new lawnmower, the plumbing that needs
replacement, which friends are sick and the most
recent one who died. Things might improve if you
work together to create activities that will spice
up your lives and give him some new material.
Try it. It might benefit you both.

On
Health
many people in Southern California, I looked
simply maahvelous.
Many skin cancers later, I realize that a
healthy tan can have unhealthy consequences.
Why dont I have the attitude: The damage is
already done, so why should I bother about
protecting myself from sun exposure now? The
reason is simple: The past damage has made my
skin even more vulnerable to cancer from new
sun damage.
Besides protecting yourself from the sun,
to minimize existing wrinkles and age spots,
consider dermal fillers and neuromodulators.
Neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin)
are injections that relax the muscles that create
the appearance of wrinkles when you smile,
frown or laugh. These products diminish frown
lines and forehead lines and sometimes crows
feet.
Dermal fillers are injections that plump up
sagging areas of skin. Dermal fillers are often
used to soften the laugh lines that run from the
side of the nose down to the mouth.
Often the two treatments are used together
to enhance and prolong their effects. Both
techniques are safe, with few side effects. To
keep seeing results, however, youll need to
return for repeat sessions.
You mentioned cost, and these treatments can
be pricey. For example, Botox injections range
from $300 to $700 per session. If this is out of
your budget, consider these options:
Chemical peels use chemicals such as glycolic
acid to strip away the outer layer of damaged
skin. A glycolic acid peel can cost as little as $80,
but it needs to be repeated every few weeks or
months to continue showing an effect.
Microdermabrasion uses tiny exfoliating
crystals to buff off the top layer of skin and
reveal the smoother surface below. Although the
technique is different from a chemical peel, the
results are similar. The cost is around $100.
In the past 40 years, weve learned a lot about
how aging and lifestyle can damage skin, and
about how to repair at least some of that damage.
Thats made many of my patients very happy.

How can order be restored in Ferguson?
Trivia
Associated Press
Theyve lined the streets

with police in riot gear,
brought in a new black commander with an empathetic
manner, imposed a curfew,
lifted it and deployed the
National Guard and still
the violence erupts nightly
in the town of Ferguson,
Missouri.
After more than a week
of unrest following the fatal
police shooting of Michael
Brown, an unarmed black
18-year-old, law enforcement
and political leaders are left
struggling for answers to a
frustrating question: What
can we do to restore peace to
the community?
Its the question of the
week, the month and the year:
How do you bring this to a
conclusion? asked Thomas
Nolan, a former Boston
police officer and criminal
justice professor at the State
University of New York at
Plattsburgh.
One answer, Nolan said,
rests with police, who should
take the initiative to meet
with nonviolent protesters,
pledge to scale back some of
the more military-style methods of crowd control, such as
Answers to Mondays questions:

The name of the T-shaped sweetened cereal introduced by Quaker Oats in 1984 was Mr. T. The cereal

cartoon character on the cereal box.
TV talk and game show host Regis Philbin is credited

Todays joke:
Hoss rode into town to buy a bull. Unfortunately,
when he bought it, he was left with one dollar. Hoss

Hoss said to the telegram man, OK. I have my one
word-comfortable.
Why do you want to tell her that? asked the telegram man.
Oh, shes not the best reader, Hoss said. Shell

sound cannons, and increase

the recruitment of black
police officers something the city said it plans
to address. Only three members of Fergusons 53-person
force are black, even though
about two-thirds of the residents are black.
If the police keep showing up every night in force
with a military presence,
these protesters are going
to keep showing up, Nolan
said. Something has got to
give. ... Police are trained
not to back down. I think
they need to reimagine this
and realize their responsibility ultimately is public safety
and not to save face. If it
takes making some concessions and meeting people
theyre not enthusiastic about
meeting with thats what
needs to be done. If not, who
can say how long this goes
on?
On Tuesday, Ferguson
officials released a statement, saying they plan to
learn from this tragedy
and vowed to take steps that
could increase the number of
black applicants to the police
department and offer incentives to encourage city residency for police officers.
LAS CRUCES, N.M. (AP)

Authorities say a teenage boy is hospitalized in critical condition after
being struck by lightning during football practice at a New Mexico middle
school.
Albuquerque TV station KOB
reports (http://bit.ly/1veMCGJ) the
teen was hit about 5 p.m. Tuesday at
Picacho Middle School in Las Cruces.
Las Cruces police say the boy was
rushed to MountainView Regional
Medical Center and is reported to be
in critical condition.
Las Cruces Public Schools officials
say two additional players and a coach
were sent to the hospital, but they
were conscious and responsive.
Authorities didnt immediately
release the name of the teen or the
other three people.

calm. Fergusons violence,

looting and vandalism have
been sparked by the Aug. 9
fatal shooting of Brown by a
white police officer.
Johnson also noted in his
briefing that some of those
arrested have come from out
of state and said agitators
intent on creating havoc are
hiding among the crowds of
peaceful demonstrators.
Police reported 57 arrests
Monday night and Tuesday
morning. Just four of those
arrested live in Ferguson.
More than a quarter of those
arrested are from out of
state, including Washington,
D.C., Brooklyn, New York,
Austin, Texas, San Diego and
Chicago, according to a St.
Louis County spokeswoman.
Dominique Adams, 30,
who lives in an apartment
complex near where Brown
was shot, said she doesnt
recognize many people she
sees at the demonstrations.
I believe that the trouble is
not caused by a lot of people
who live here, she said. Its
the outsiders, she said, who
are causing the problems
that force police to use tear
gas. They (the outsiders)
are messing up my neighborhood, she added.

The statement also urged

residents to remain home
at night Tuesday to allow
peace to settle in, following
Mondays street demonstrations that once again turned
violent. The trouble began
after dark when some protesters resisted police orders to
disperse.
Capt. Ron Johnson of
the Missouri State Highway
Patrol, who is overseeing
security in Ferguson, said
Molotov cocktails and bottles
were thrown from the crowd
and some officers came under
heavy gunfire. Two fires also
were set.
These are not acts of
protesters but acts of violent
criminals, Johnson said at a
news briefing where he also
announced two people had
been shot. Police fired tear
gas, threw flash grenades and
deployed ultra-loud sound
cannons to repel the crowds.
It was the first night
the National Guard was on
the scene, though soldiers
kept their distance from
the streets. Missouri Gov.
Jay Nixon, who lifted the
midnight-to-5 a.m. curfew

OAKHURST, Calif.. (AP)

Firefighters gained ground Tuesday on
a blaze in the foothills near Yosemite
National Park, allowing some of the 1,000
people who fled the flames to return to
their homes.
Nearly 1 square mile in Madera County
had been scorched, revising earlier estimates that it had spanned about twice as
much ground, state fire officials said.
Flames erupted Monday near Oakhurst,
a community of several thousand about 16
miles from a Yosemite entrance, forcing more than 1,000 people to evacuate
and thousands more to prepare to leave
their homes. Some residents were allowed
to go home, but sheriffs spokeswoman
Erica Stuart could not provide an estimate
of how many.
Crews contained 30 percent of the
fire, aided by humidity and calmer winds.
Additional firefighters had been brought
in to attack the blaze fueled a day earlier

by gusty winds and dry brush.
Were not seeing the fire expand like
we thought, Madera County Sheriff John
Anderson said Tuesday.
The blaze that destroyed eight structures did not affect Yosemite National
Park, and the road leading visitors to the
park reopened Tuesday. It once threatened
about 500 homes, but the risk has been
minimized, officials say.
The fire comes amid Californias third
straight year of drought, creating tinderdry conditions that have significantly
increased the fire danger around the state
and sent firefighters scrambling seemingly nonstop from blaze to blaze.
Evacuated residents in Oakhurst said
they had braced for the worst.
There is nothing you can do when a fire
is raging, said Clement Williams, 67. You
just have to flee. Its a real sinking feeling.
