A\ers The Trenton City Commis- sion held a monthly\ meeting on Monday. June 12 in the %ake of Tropical Storm Alberto. Waste Pro representati' e Bob Walk attended the meeting and addressed the fi'e-member council invokling their current garbage contract. "We are \er' proud to be associated % ith the Cit\ of Trenton and providing collection service to the com- munity," Walk explained. He added since the company took over the contract ith the City after buying out Wesle) Sanita- tion in 2005, the service has been improving for the City of. Trenton. At the present time the resi- dents of Trenton are paying $9.80 a' month for residential garbage collection .service. Walk proposed the' rate to in-' crease to $13.25 a month for residential service. He further explained that the. commercial rate is proposed for a 5% in- crease. Walk explained to the board that Waste Pro on an a% erage goes from 6 to 8 months after .taking over an existing contract to improve the service before increasing the rates. The City Commission dis- cussed several issues in olhing the sanitation collection ser' ice. The board members reported that they have recei ed numer- ous complaints from Trenton residents., and commercial cus- tomers regarding the sanitation service since Waste Pro began serving the City 'of Trenton. Commissioner W. 0. Bill Clifton made a motion to table a decision on this request until the board had more time to research this issue. Commissioner Arlene Wilks gave a second to the mo- tion before the board voted 5-0 in supportof the motion. Trenton City Attorney David M. Lang, Jr. read a portion of the City's sanitation collection contract, Section 11.02 which identifies the paragraph that allows the contract company to request a rate increase from the Cit% of Trenton.

Gilchrist County 'and the City of Trenton expected the weather to be severe Tuesday as both local government offices closed in lieui of the storm. A part of Gilchrist County around Trenton reported over 4- inches of rain from Monday afternoon until late Tuesday. Strong winds blew trees limbs on road ay s, but no power out- ages were reported. The Gil- christ County Road Department reported few problems Monday evening and during the night, .On Tuesday morning. the rain was still sprinkling. As the day drew closer to the projected land fall time of 1;00 p.m., the winds reached gusts of 36 miles per hour in the county. The coastal conditions Tuesday afternoon in the com- munity of Suwannee had resi- dents evacuating due to the high water. A high tide 'was expected. to be at 3:00 p.m. Tuesday. The storm blowing the water in reached a tidal surge of over three feet. Scott Akins was in Suwan- nee at his river camp before lunch on Tuesday. He reported the in-coming tide came in very quickly and came up into his yard and porch. Around 2:00 p.m. the tide turned and began to flow out. He explained the tide drained off of the seawall' and out of the canals just as fast as it had come in. The entire Suwannee com- munity had water around many of the homes. The Dixie County Sheriff's Department re-opened CR-349 to allow incoming traf- fic to return to their properties after the tidal surge had drained off of the roads..

Ayers As the coastal communities and inland counties .of Florida's Big Bend area brace themselves for what appears will be a direct hit from Tropical Storm Al- berto, we wait and think the worst. On Sunday as tie. storm was traveling north at 6-'miles per hour, we began to hear that this storm would impact the Cedar Key area. We had begun to talk to friends that reported this storm would not exceed 50 miles per hour in winds, but would bring us much needed rain. On Monday evening after the storm survived a very strong Wind shear, Alberto reorganized and a new center was reported to have formed on the east side of the storm. All of this time the weather forecasters had predicted Al- berto would make land fall in the area, north of Cedar Key. As Monday night turned into Tues- day, the storm 'as reported to be 65 miles off of the coast of Cedar Key. It was moving NNE at a speed of 9 miles per hour. -As I continued to 'watch sev- eral of my favorite weather In- ternet pages, it appeared to me that the storm was drifting off to' the north more than it was to the" east. At that time I was hoping this storm would not slam us with a tidal surge at Sunannee. TuesdaN afternoon when my friend Scott Akins called me to let me know that he was at Su- wannee and that he couldn't' 'drive to his place, I was afraid that we: might be in trouble re- garding the flooding tidal surge. Scott told me that the water was coming over the top of the sea wall..just before noon .and the tide was not expected to be full until 3:00 p.m. At that point I felt we might have water in our camp. , During the Storm of, the Tid Tmrs e ForI S ~ S]m I~~' The]Wekof6/15bStoJF6/21 f o t e m o t h o t eS u w a n e e i v e ,Date High Low High Low High - Thu 2.765ft. 1.774 fr. 3 7531t.

Our fam- ily friend, Dave Swain told my father that he could' raise the small cabin up 36-inches to keep the water out. Dave did this with a little help and the house has been high and dry ever since. At 2:00 p.m. Tuesday after- noon Scott called me back to explain that the tide had turned and was now going out. He went on to point out that the tide was roaring out of the canals running down the ri\ er. I was not able to determine if the storm had made landfall prior to 2:00 p.m. I would guess that the loss of ,driving wind from the southwest. which caused the storm surge on the coastal areas; without this wind the tide would d flow out at an increased speed.

Letter To The Editor Despite growing threats to the manatee's long-term survival and overwhelming public op- position, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission (FWC) voted last week to prematurely downlist manatees 'from Endan- gered to Threatened. This deci- sion plays right into the hands of those who want to exploit mana- tee habitat for development and high-speed recreation. Elen though the state found that the manatee population could be reduced by as much as fifty percent in' the ,future and that manatees meet the federal and World Conservation Union's (IUCN) definition .for Endangered, manatees no longer, qualify for state Endangered sta- tus because the FWC arbitrarily changed its listing.'delisting rules by adopting the U'Nl'C'Ncriterifa for Endangered and then,calling, it Threatened. Thirty conservation and anii- mal welfare organizations rep- resenting millions of Americans, around the nation urged EWC to fix its imperiled species classifi- cation system to properly align it with IUCN's. Thirty-nine manatee and dugong scientists from numerous countries around the world sent a letter in opposi- tion to the manatee's downlist- ing. And people from all over the nation called the agency in protest, while hundreds more attended the Commission meet- ing. Out of scores of speakers at this meeting, only a handful of development, marine industries' and go-fast boaters' lobbyists spoke out in favor of downlist- inig manatees to Threatened!, Further, 17: organizations, filed a legal petition asking the FWC to fix its imperiled species classification system. But, in the end, .none of it mattered to the, Commissioners. The FWC insists protections won't change, but a review 6f Florida law shows Endangered species are afforded more pro- tection than Threatened species. The Commission claims their Management Plan will protect manatees. However, Florida's Legislature will be pressured to reduce FWC's authority, and funding to protect manatees. This will undermine the imple- Smentation of the Plan, and pre- vent real recovery. The FWC and Governor Bush are declaring this a victory for manatees but the facts show oth- erwise. The agency claims that the manatee population is grow- ing, yet a state report shows that only the two smallest subpopula- tions clearly show growth. To- gether, these two subpopulatioris Services Closings Title Insurance Public Record Searches * Fast and Friendly Service 302 North Main Street Trenton, Florida Streetwise By Lauren Rudd Here is an easy investment question; what goes snap. crack- le and pop? If you answered Wall Street, after last week's abominable performance. that would have been an excellent answer_..wrong but excellent. There is no question that what you witnessed last week with regard to the financial markets bears a close resemblance to tak- ing candy from-a child and then haring to listen to the ensuing screams. Essentially, the Street fooled itself into belie\ ing that the Fed- eral Reserve would take a wait and see attitude with regard to the economy, thereby bringing to a close, at least temporarily, its program of pushing interest rates higher. When Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, in conjunction %with other members of the Fed, made it abundant% clear that the\ re- mained concerned over inflation and implied strong that interest rates might hae to move higher, Wall Street basically imploded, its version of a child throwing a temper tantrum. This brings us back to my original question. If you had only account for sixteen percent of the manatee population. The largest subpopulation on the Atlantic coast shows a probable decline of about three percent per year over the last file years. The Southwest subpopulation is already in decline. Manatees continue to die from boat strikes in near-record numbers and there has been a seventeen percent in- creqse in manatee mortality from., boat collisions over tbe. last fil e year period as compared to the, previous fi\ e year penod! Please ask yourself, can all of the organizations represent- ing hundreds of thousands of Florida citizens and millions More people nationwide who have shared their concerns over the new listing process be wrong?' I urge the Commission to take a step back from the, situation and think about the repercussions to manatees and many other imperiled species if. we are right and they are. wrong. The consequences will be disas- trous. If we are wrong and they are right, then no harm will have been done. In 'the meantime manatees' projected loss of winter habitat. could cause catastrophic future losses. This is no time for cel- ebration!

Cereal makes for a soggy invest- ment but Kellogg, on the other hand, is an excellent investment candidate. Before delving into the merits of Kellogg, keep in mind what Warren Buffett said about his weakness for hamburgers. When the price of hamburgers fall, he. buys more hamburgers. When I last wrote about Kel- logg a year ago, my earnings estimate was $2.34 for FY 2005 ending on Dec. 31. The shares at the time. were trading at $46,, versus its current price of $47.31, and the P/E ratio was at 21, versus a current 19.5. Kellogg reported earnings of $2.36 per share, an increase of 10 percent from the $2.14 per share earned in 2004. It was also the Company's fourth consecu- tive year of double-digit earni- ings gro%'th. Net Wales increased by 6 percent to $10.2 billion. In 2005, free cash flow, defined as cash from operating acti ities less capital expenditures, was $769 million. The news gets e'en better for the first quarter of 2006 Earn- * ings were 68 cents per share. an 11 percent increase o.er last near's 61, cents per share. Net sales for the quarter were up 6 percent to $2.7 billion. Free cash flow %was $101 million in the first quarter. Kellogg also stated that it now expects full-year earn- ings between $2.45 and 2.49 per share. Calculating Kellogg's intrin- sic value. using an earnings approach, yields a value of $54.50, assuming an earnings growth rate of 9 74 percent and a discount rate of 11 percent, the average return on the S&P 500. If, instead of earnings. %we use a more conser\atie free cash flow model, e obtain an intrinsic \alue of $54.51. As "ou can see the two models Nielded virtually the same answer. lMy earnings estimate for Kel- logg for 2006 is $2.56 per share. The current trailing twelve Month P/E or multiple is 19'5. If the P/E remains unchanged, Kel- logg should be trading at about ,$50 per share in the next nine months, for an annualized gain of 7.7 percent. In addition. Kellogg has ,a current-,dividend ield,.of..,2.4 percent. However. Kellogg's- board has approved a 5 percent increase in the dividend, to begin in the third quarter.

The means of crucifixion were designed to create the greatest level of suffering possibly endured by man. When Jesus was crucified, the Romans had perfected it to a level of science. They knew how much a man could take and yet still live. The condemned lingered for hours at the brink of death. Relief came only when the last breath was expelled aiid the soul returned unto God. The cross of Jesus is the focus of our lives as we see His suffering and His pain. The glory of the resurrection is the hope we share of heaven. However, the suffering of Jesus was not contained alone in the cross. Before His crucifixion, Jesus had already suffered greatly. The scene unfolds with a prostrate man in a garden called Gethsemane. The companion's of Jesus are at a distance with three special friends nearby. Yet sorrow and distress overwhelms His heart as He cries out, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with Me." While His disciples sleep, Jesus pours out His heart in earnest pleas to His Father, "0 My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will." The real suffering begins. Jesus agonizes in the garden but resigns His will to the Father. Angels are sent to strengthen him. "And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground." A cruel blow is sent to Jesus' heart as his friend and companion for three years comes to betray him with a kiss and a greeting of, "RabbiL" The hands of Jesus are bound and He is led away to meet His death. He is forced to walk more than two and one half miles to and from the various places of His trials. First He is taken to a high priest, Annas. Being questioned by Annas, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus ,with his hand. Annas then sent Jesus bound to Caiaphas the high priest. Jesus is placed in the center of a loud mob of accusers and false witnesses who bore testimony against him. "The men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him. And some began to spit in his face and buffet him. They blindfolded him and some smote him with the palms of their hands saying, 'Prophecy unto us, thou Christ: who is he that struck thee?' And the officers received him with blows of their hands. And many other things spake they against him, reviling him." Sometime in all of these things, Jesus turned and looked at Peter and the cock crew the second time. Jesus was so alone with Peter cursing and swearing, "I know not this man of whom ye speak." Again Jesus is bound and lead away to Pilate, the governor, and it was early dawn. Jesus had already endured a traumatic and sleepless night of abuse. During the Roman trials, Jesus is grilled by Pilate, delivered to Herod where Jesus remained silent as the chief priests and the scribes vehemently accused Jesus. The soldiers of Herod set Jesus up and mocked him, arraying him in gorgeous apparel and then sent him back to Pilate. The vicious crowd cries for Jesus to be crucified as even Pilate proclaims the ,innocence of Jesus. Bowing to the wishes of the crowd, Pilate takes Jesus and scourges him. Here he is severely whipped as the lacerations tear into his flesh and produce quivering' ribbons of bleeding flesh. The soldiers then mocked Jesus by placing a crown of thorns on his head and again arraying him in a purple garment and striking him with their hands. As they removed the robe, the flesh tore again. They spit on Jesus and struck Jesus on the head with a reed. Then they took Jesus and crucified him.

Florida Students Using, Mathematics Skillfully (Florida SUMS) is a K 5, mathematics 'initiative developed by member school districts of the North East Florida Educational Consortium (NEFEC). The first year of this exciting new initiative will in- volve. 20 schools from 9 school districts in 'northeast Florida; P.K. Yonge will host the initial weeklong summer institute, set to kickoffon June 19th. The Florida SUMS Summer Institute is a five-day, dynamic; professional development ex- perience for teachers who teach mathematics. The training is grade-le.el specific, providing teachers with content knowl- edge, pedagogical insights .to hands-on learning, and materials needed in order to ensure effec- tive instruction for the students they teach. Experienced trainers provide hands-on experiences for participants, along with support to gain new insights and understandings about leach- ing and learning mathematics.: Teachers remain with the same trainer throughout the institute in order to build the capac- ity of participants and to ensure consistency over the five days., School principals receive sup- port to monitor the implemen- tation and impact of FL SUMS on student and teacher learning. In addition to the intensive professional development during the summer academy, Florida SUMS will also provide participating teachers with on- going support and the classroom materials needed for effective implementation. Combining these three comppnents-profes- sional development, classroom support, and classroom re- sources-will produce, the most ,comprehensive effect on teacher practice and student achieve- ment.

These, two brought down the house w ith numerous laughs and touching sincerity. Another senior left with' a bang \%ith his farewell perfor- mance as Jud Fry. Bryant Caves put his all into the part of Jud Fry and it showed. He has been an asset to the drama program for four years and we hate to see him go. Another new face was Courtney Martin as Aunt Eller.- We hope to see more of her in future shows. A huge added bonus to this year's spring musical was Lori Courtney who choreographed the chorus numbers. 'She added. such charisma and character to each of the characters. "We want to give,her big thanks for taking time our of her busy schedule in Atlanta to come and help the drama club. There were 66 students in- volved in the production in all from acting to stage crew. There were many volunteers this-year including stage manager Renee; Hastings and prop master Janice Beach. Director, Krista Perry- man, has been directing the TES drama program since 1999. She directs a Christmas musical and -spring musical each year. She. has written several of thd shows performed as well. Technical di- rector. John Yencho. directs the THS drama program. He does a fall show.each year. Four \ ears ago Mrs. Perry man and NMr. Yen- cho decided to join forces, and combine the trko drama groups for a large spring show. The first one was titled "A Walk Through Time on Broadway." It was a, piece written by Mrs. Perryman based around Broadway mu- sicals that she and Mr Yencho'. had compiled together. Enough money was raised on that show to do "Wizard of Oz" the next year. Each year it gets bigger and bigger. One would only wonder how each show could, get any better. Again they went over the top with Oklahoma... They would like to thank ev- eryone who helped both physi- cally and through donations. WVe hope to see your support in the years to come! THANK YOU GILCHRIST COUNTY! Remember, each show costs a lot of money to produce.

June 6. 1944, US Navy pharmacist mate Bill Lowrance, attached, to a beach battalion, went ashore at Omaha Beach in Normandy, France, to clear mines and other obstacles and open boat lanes before the start at 6:30 a.m. Minutes later, Navy helmsman Joe McClellan made the first of three landings that day on one of 4,000 stubby, front-ramped landing craft, each time pushing five Sherman tanks and 10 tank operators onto the beach. Without the Navy, they say, there would have been no D-Day. "You had to have a way to get the troops to the beach," McClellan said. "We did it." Yet more than six decades later, the US Navy is the lone American military service without a monument at Normandy. "The Navy's focus was always on the Pacific; the European theater was an Army affair. That, I think, is why there's no monument at Normandy," said Greg Streeter, chairman of the Navy Normandy Monument Committee. Aging witnesses and more urban sprawl are making it harder to find remains or evidence of missing American service members in Vietnam, but a group of'experts here works year-round to fulfill'the U.S. military's pledge to leave no man behind. The seven-member team -- four service members and three federal employees -- of Detachment 2, Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command, has spent the past 15 years talking to witnesses, reviewing historical documentation and digging in muck in pursuit of a mission sacred to U.S. military members. The headquarters of the Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command is at Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii. The unit works on many fronts to provide the fullest possible accounting of U.S. service members missing from conflicts throughout history. Some 1,805 U.S. military members are still officially missing in Southeast Asia; the vast majority -- 1,380,-- are believed to be in Vietnam. Fifty-four went missing in or over Cambodia; 365 in Laos; and seven in China. JPAC's Detachment 1 is in Bangkok, Thailand, and is responsible for operations in Thailand and Cambodia. Detachment 3 is in Vientiane, Laos. And several more teams are researching sites from WWII, Korea,' and other sites all around the world where American troops have borne the battle. These teams endure many hardships and troubles in order to bring our brethren home to America. Pray for them. Jamerson-Sheffield Post 91 and Auxiliary Unit 91 will conduct the Installation of Officers tonight at 7:00 PM at the Post Home on US-129 north of Trenton.

This report is designed to inform you about the quality water and services we deliver to you every day. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. We want you to understand the efforts we make to, continually improve the water treatment process and protect our water resources. We -are committed to ensuring the quality of your water. Fanning Springs well draws from the Floridan Aquifer. The current active well being used is located by the Kik-A-Ha Subdivision. The water is chlorinated to ensure disenfection. The Department of Environmental Protection has performed a Source Water Assessment on our system and a search of the data sources indicated no potential sources of contamination near our well. The assessment result are available on DEP Source Water Assessment and Protection Program website at http://www.dep.staie fl.us/swapp lfrou have any questions about this report or concerning )our water utility, please contact our Water Manager, Mr. Doyle Frierson at 352-545-1024. We encourage our valued customers tobe informed about their water utility If you want to learn more, please attend any of our regularly scheduled meetings. The) are held on the first Tuesday of every month at 5:00 P.M. at CitN Hall. The City of Fanning Springs routinely monitors for contaminants in your drinking water according to Federal and State laws, rules and regulations. Except where indicated otherwise, this report is based on the results of our monitoring for the period of January I to December 31. 2005. Data obtained before January 1,2005, and presented in this report are from the most recent testing done in accordance with the laws, rules, and regulations. In the table below you may find unfamiliar terms and abbreviations. To help you better understand these terms, we've provided the following definitions: Maximum Contaminant Level or MCL: The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology. MNaximum Contaminant Level Goal or MCLG: The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety. Action Level (AL): The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements that awaler system must follow. Parts per million (ppm) or Milligram per liter (mg/I): One part by weight of anal) te to I million parts by weight of the water sample. Parts per billion (ppb) or Micrograms per liter (pg/I): One part by weight of analyte to I billion parts by weight of the water sample. TEST RESULTS TABLE Hicks Seal Coating and Striping. LLC.

As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally-occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity. Contaminants that may be present in source water include: (A) Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife. (B) Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial or domestic waste water discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming. (C) Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm water runoff, and residential uses. (D) Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, and septic systems. (E) Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities. In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health. Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Ptotection Agency's Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791. Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These:people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbiological contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791). We at The City of Fanning Springs would like you to understand the efforts we make to continually improve the water treatment process and protect our water resources. We are committed to insuring the quality of your water. If you have any questions or concerns about the information provided, please feel free to call Doyle Frierson at 352-463-2855.

Most in- formed people stay in touch with constituents who are leaders in the community, whether in the church, the businesses, law en- forcement, or education. They are people in the know, they are, registered voters, and they ask questions attend meetings and are sometimes 'the "silent mov- ers and shakers." : Those informed people, whether they serve as a public official, teach, preach, or sim- ply watch, are those who can be called "visionaries;" people w ho are committed to growth. who look beyond problems to causes, and who develop precise solutions for success, no matter who gets the credit. They are the "silent" majority. The visionary has hope for the future, and encourages oth- ers %%ith that hope. A visionary uses his/her imagination to move things forward and exhorts oth- ers to follow his/her lead. A visionary has confidence that success will come, no matter how challenging the obstacles may appear. A visionary is one who can see the results before they happen: for their faith and their vision in a project is turned into reality through beforehand impressions on their mind. A visionary sa- * lutes the present. by continually ha% ing a perceptive "eye" for the future and the work it entails to reach certain goals. A visionary demonstrates great discretion in making decisions which will af- fect people for good. A visionary keeps commu-.

A visionary is teach- able in that he/she is willing to learn from others. A visionary stays "on top of things," asks questions and finds solutions to dilemmas. We, of Gilchrist County, are blessed to have as citizens, peo- ple who have the gifting of being a visionary; those who are will- ing to make whatever sacrifices are necessary for the good of all, and are not concerned about who gets the credit. A visionary sure- ly does prove that our county "is a County of Character because it's a County that cares." SFCC Presents A Two-Part Series Workshop On Advance Directives.

The too hot, too soon days have seemingly sucked the life out of almost everything except those really prickly cacti growing every where you don't want them. The rain we, at this end of Gilchrist County, enjoyed a week or so ago was such a blessing. It rained quite hard for several days and everything was fresh and clean once again. But, alas, it doesn't last long and every living thing...plants, and creatures are begging for more of that precious cool refreshing rain. Oh, you can run the hose and sprinklers and fill the bird baths every day but it's never enough. Seems like it disappears faster than. an ice cream cone in the hands of a ten year old boy. Why, even most of my lantana hasn't come back and the crape myrtles are blooming quite haphazardly. some have not put forth one bloom as if to say, "Honestly, what do you expect it's just too hot and besides...I'm thirsty." Yes, it seems the long hot days of summer are stretching out before us like a long hot dusty road to no where. The hotter it gets the less I'm inclined to do. I just want to sit on the porch with a tall tinkling glass of ice tea or maybe a really tart lemonade, close my eyes and just be. I recall summers of long ago. The memories of them march across my mind like a fourth of July parade. The sounds, smells and tastes of my own childhood summers and the childhood summers of my children and grandchildren rush to embrace me. The memories are like sum- mer fruit. Some are sweet, some are sour and some aren't yet ripe enough to enjoy. Each memoryM is unique and pieced together like a quilt with strong threads of, love, family and friends., They are made up of scraps and bits and pieces of my life. The strong, sweet fragrance of nos- talgia washes over me like the perfume of Confederate Jasmine and fills my soul with peace. And so it was on a hotter than hot June morning that twenty Joyful Hearts met to create memories forlong hot summer days to come. We were missing a few of the regulars and hope that they are just busy but not ill. We know that Maxine Hale has not been feeling up to snuff and we'll be keeping her in our prayers. It was good to have Heidi Kamp back in our midst. Her leg has been giving her a fit and she's on our prayer list as well. Mary Lou Ryder was able to make it...praise the Lord...I tell you even with 15 stitches in her arm you can't keep that girl down. Lu Rowland has been out a couple of times and we're hoping it's not because she's feeling poorly again. Alberta Scanner had to stay home and keep an -eye on hubby, Jimmy or he'll over do it in the garden and Barbara Strom -is keeping an eye out on-David, her hubby, We also were missing others and we hope they'll be at. our next meeting which will be on June 21st. We had a newcomer Betty Hicks, another buckeye, and we hope she'll come back until she moves,- North to live with her son. The quilt franie \\as surround-' ed with quilters. E\elIn Wood. Elaine Nemeth, Ann Mangone and Pat Luka. Pai's lap quilt is coming right along as well. Myrtle Gilkey is no longer cro- cheting what I called rats. She has started a new project and I believe it's an afghan. It was a pleasure to have Rita Simcoe back and she as well as Jackie Moore, Heidi Kamp, Bonnie Edwards and Alice Binns were all busy with their Swedish weaving. Ann Taylor was back to her knitting and Paulene Martin was crocheting. Paulene brought in her squares of."chicken scratch", that she laid aside, to show us. I just love that technique. I started doing it about four years ago and must get it out again. Some folks call it "depression lace" or Hoover lace because ladies used it on dresses and blouses instead of real lace that was just too ex- pensive back then. . Ruth Wilkerson was crochet- ing while Lera Townsend and I busied ourselves embroidering. Diana Lynn \% worked on her June lap quilt block and showed off her other five she has completed. I love the colors and patterns she's choose and I love Pat Luka's also. Of course, Elaine has hers finished and even made it bigger than 12 square..what can I tell you? Cathy Strom, Mary Lou Ryder and Judy Pflueger all came to. visit, make chit chat and bring us cheer. Sometimes that's all a body needs to do. Well, sooner than you think it was time to gather in our circle and say grace. We all ate the lunches we'd packed and afterwards ate ice cream with chocolate, butterscotch or cara- mel syrup...yummy, yummy. It helped take your mind off the fact that the temperature in your car was going to be well over 100 degrees. We are now in the beginning of the hurricane season. While we pray fervently that no storms of such destruction,and devasta- tion as were prevailent last sea- son find their way to our shores; or that of any country, we know the changes of it happening do indeed exist. We. do not have to wait until we are in the middle of a disas- ter to help those in need. The sick, the elderly, the hungry, the homeless, those unable to care for themsleves are always with us, maybe as an angel in disguise. I'm sure that most of us, including myself, could be doing more to not only make a difference, but to be the differ-' ence. Remember, He % ho does not love does not know God, for God is love. 1 John 4:8 'Til next time. S A Joyful Heart.

Values - One of the most frequent questions I get asked is, "Ho '. much .is. property worth in Gilchrist County". I would like' to 'tll 'yi6 that the answer to. that question is simple. It is not simple, and, sometimes almost impossible to answer. - Property values have a multitude of variables. One factor that affects property value is location. Being on a paved road for instance adds significant value. , - Another factor is what is on the land itself. A piece of land that is mostly established pasture; with some picturesque granddaddy oaks is more valuable than a similar parcel that is planted in pine. -'The size of the land is a variable that is very important. In most cases, smaller parcels bring a higher per acre price than larger ones. Based on recent sales, the average of 10 acre parcels range from $11,000 to $15,000.00 per acre. On the other hand, 5 acre parcels are averaging a slightly higher $12,000 to $16,000 per acre. - If you are interested in finding out the value of your property, call me today to schedule your no obligation Market Analysis.

June 8th, Gill was patrol- ling Lake Butler Park when he observed a female subject suspected of having outstand- ing warrants. Gill requested a records check and, while wait- ing for the response, he observed the subject discard an item near, a trash can. A records check confirmed two outstanding war- rants through Union County. After placing the subject under arrest, Gill discovered that the item discarded was a crack pipe.
