Five recognized with

For five local citizens, it was
a day to remember last week at
Falling Waters State Park as they
were recognized by none other
than President George W. Bush.
Albert Spurlock, Andrew Ev-
ans, Betty Jane Cannon, Jacob
Moore and Zachary Sweeny (not
present) were honored with the
President's Volunteer Service
Award. The ceremony was held at
the park office on Falling Waters
Road.
"Falling Waters State Park has
been blessed over the years to
have individuals willing to give
of themselves to make the park
a better place for the 30,000-plus
that visit the park every year,"
said Park Service Specialist Scott
Sweeney. The park has a very
small staff (Park Manager Ron-
nie Hudson splits time between
running Falling Waters and Ponce
de Leon Springs), so doing any
major project is difficult.
That's where volunteers come
in. These five people contributed
time and hard work to the park
over the years for a wide variety
of major projects.

' Andrew Evans (left) is responsible for build-
ing this 140-foot bridge and other building
projects throughout Falling Waters State
park. Evans was among five volunteers recog-
nized for their contributions to the park with
the President's Volunteer Service Award, an
idea conceived by President George W. Bush
in 2002 to honor volunteers who through
service to others, demonstrate the character
of America and strengthen the country.
*Albert Spurlock was honored
for building more than 60 picnic
tables by hand, as well as other
activities.
*Andrew Evans is responsible
for building a 140-foot-long
bridge over a wetland area, as
well as initiating and completing
several other projects.
*Betty Jane Cannon is a very
active participant in the ongoing
Phase I archeological survey be-
ing performed at the park, as well
as doing other projects.
*Jacob Moore and Zachary
Sweeny each donated over 60
hours during their summer vaca-
tions to help maintain the beauty
of the park.
The volunteers were clearly
honored to receive their awards,
including a letter from President
Bush, and realize how impor s
stant is their work. "They have
a small staff, and we do a lot of
things to help," Spurlock said.

Vernon City Council approved
having City Attorney Kerry Ad-
kison look into recent actions
by Council members which may
have violated Florida law. The
measure was approved at a special
called meeting Monday night at
Vernon City Hall,
Adkison called the special
meeting after it was brought to his
attention
thatapay- BUDDY BAXLEY
ment of RESPONDS,
$12,300
was made PAGE 3A
to Rec Di-
rector and Fire Chief Clarence
"Buddy" Baxley for utility and
maintenance work he supposedly
did for the City during the preced-
ing year.
Council approved having Ad-
kison send Baxley a letter de-
manding that detailed paperwork
be submitted showing what kind
of work was done.
"Mr. Baxley has to produce
some documentation or he needs
to bring $12,300 back to the
Council," Adkison said. That
would include itemized bills and
any work orders, the attorney
said. Adkison also made it clear
that it was necessary that this mat-
ter be made public.
"I'm not going to sweep this
under the rug," he said. Adkison
said he would have issued the
letter to Baxley whether Council
approved or not.
The check, $10 an hour for
1,230 hours of work, was issued
without going through Council,
and in possible violation of the
Sunshine Law as Council mem-
bers John Paul Cook, Jr. and
Vivian Brewer, Council President
Narvel Armstrong, and City Clerk
Sherry Cobb were involved.
Adkison told those involved to
prepare written statements about
the incident.
Adkison said the check was
apparently written after Baxley
sent a letter threatening a lawsuit
based on statements made about
him by City officials in the past.
That threat apparently convinced
those involved to issue the check
to head off the lawsuit.
Cook said the action was taken
"to avoid being in a long drawn-
out situation."

Center: Vernon City Attorney Kerry Adkison explains to City Council what actions need to be taken.
Baxley responds to Council meeting
The following email was received Monday night from
Clarence "Buddy" Baxley:
Please be advised that I did not attend the special called
Vernon City Council meeting on February 4, 2008 at 5
p.m. only because I was never notified to be at the meet-
ing, nor was I notified that I would be the topic of the
meeting. My presence was never requested by anyone.
Furthermore it is my opinion that great lengths were
taken to conceal the agenda from myself, and others
that would have notified me of the need for my pres-
ence at that meeting; by the City Clerk and other parties
involved. The agenda for this meeting was not posted or
made public until 12 p.m. on February 4, 2008.
Select members of Council were not even made aware
of the reason for the meeting. The Agenda itself was vague
and had no mention of myself or either of the departments
that would involve me.
I have not threatened nor has it ever been my intention
to sue the City of Vernon. I have worked diligently with
and for the City of Vernon. This is my home and I am
appalled that I would be hung out to dry and accused of
threatening the City at a meeting I wasn't afforded the
opportunity to defend myself at.
I now know the reason for the meeting was over a bill
submitted for work I-completed outside the realm of my
contract with the City.
I was asked by more than one party to submit a bill
for work done outside of my contract. I submitted a bill,
was asked to sign a statement stating I would hold the
City harmless through the dates of the work that was
done and then was compensated for the work. It's as
simple as that.
Anyone who has read a newspaper over the past year on
Council Meetings in Vernon probably won't find it hard to
come to the conclusion that there are some affiliated with
the City who just have a personal vendetta against me.
I would ask that those affiliated with the City would in
the future contact me directly with anything pertaining to
me and not hold meetings with secret agendas where I'm
not afforded the opportunity to defend m\ nelf
VERNON
Continued from page 1A
The check was apparently
written on the City Hall
fund because there was not
enough money in the water
and sewer fund (about 75
percent of the reported
work was done on water
and sewer), Cobb said.
The meeting was ap-
parently the first news of
the matter to at least two
Council members.
"Why weren't we all
called about this?" asked
Councilwoman Gweri
March.
"Who made the decision
to pay it out of the City Hall
fund?" asked Councilman
Junior McKeithen. "This
is the first time I've heard
of this."
Adkison was clearly.
angry that the matter was
not brought to his attention
when there was threat of a
lawsuit.
"This is uncalled for
without talking with me,"
he told Council. "I'm at
a loss as to why I wasn't
contacted."
Adkison also noted that
public officials are covered
under the law of qualify-
ing immunity to be free
of frivolous lawsuits over
thing-, said in public. He
said he doubted there was
anything to the lawsuit.
"After 18 years experi-
ence, if they say they are
going to file a lawsuit they
normally do not file," Adki-
son said. He said he did not
believe an attorney drew up
such a letter. "It's not worth
the paper it's written on,"
he said. "He has no leg to
stand on it's worthless.
There is no reason to give
a release. The City has no
liability in this case.
"You do not make a
legal determination," Ad-
kison said. "You tell his
lawyer to call me. Nobody
on this Council has a right
to settle a lawsuit this way.
There is no justification for
this none.
"I've never seen this
happen anywhere."
Adkison said that his
findings will be reported
when he is finished, and
not at the. regular Council
meeting at 7 p.m. Feb. 10
at City Hall.

Big Fish, Volume 2
This is the second col-
umn of a three-part se-
ries.
"Big Fish" is a movie
about a story-telling father
and his relationship with
his son. The father tells his
son all about his life. When
the boy is young, he be-
lieves every word his father
tells him. As the boy grows
he realizes how much of his
father's stories are nothing
but big fish; just fables.
At the end of the father's
life, his son wants to know
who his father is. The fa-
ther, however, has nothing
more than his stories to
offer the son. The son re-
signs himself to never truly
knowing his father.
"Big Fish" did not re-
ceive its due in theaters. I
recommend it to everyone.
Go rent it right now. Wait a
second, go rent it after you
finish my column.
My grandpa, Terry Hol-
linger, has a story staff. I
don't mean he has story
telling employees. I mean
he carries a big stick. Who-
ever holds the story staff
has the authority to tell a
story. Today I'm holding
the stick.
Once upon a time there
was a young boy. A tall
boy, no more than five
years old. His hair was fair
and his eyes were blue like
the sky.
Being five-years-old is
a .delicate time in a young
boy's life. After all, every-
thing he'll ever need to
know, he learned in kin-
dergarten.
In the house where the.
boy lived, there was an
upright piano. The piano
sat harmlessly against a
wall in the lii ing room.
Plenty of space acted as a
cushion around the piano.
It's important to understand
how out of the way this
piano was.
During his fifth year of
life, a tragedy came upon
this boy. His short term
memory was short-circuit-
ed. Every night for almost
a year, this boy would walk
across the living room,
headed for bed. Halfway
through the room, he'd run
head first into the piano.
One Word
Andrew Hollinger
Some psychologistV
might argue that this was ;
cry for attention. It wasn't
Let me paint the picture o,
an average night. The par
ents of the boy would cha,
in the living room. Some
times the parents drank
coffee with company in the
living room.
The boy would walk
across the living room to-
ward his bedroom. Without
warning he'd run straight
into the piano. Each night,
the boy staggered back a
few steps and began crying.
Then, with tears in his eyes,
he'd walk into his room and
fall fast asleep.
It became more of a
show than a shock. One
night, the boy missed the
piano. From then on, he
never hit the piano again.
No one ever figured out
why, night after night, he
walked into the piano.
Unfortunately I can't re-
member those nights at all.
But I know what I've been
told. Several people have
confirmed the story.
If you have ever won-
dered how I think up with
some of the random column
ideas I've written about,
I think the answer can be
found in my childhood.
Wonder where this is
going?
Next week: the conclu-
sion.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
To the Editor:
This is a letter to the citizens of Holmes County.
Many things have come down from government fed-
eral, state and county in recent months that have caught'
a lot of people by surprise and have greatly affected us as
citizens, taxpayers and landowners.
Other things are coming soon that will also affect us as
citizens. To be able to relate our positions on these issues
to our government officials we have to be informed. The
only way we can become informed is to ignore rumors,
hearsay and second-hand information and attend meetings
of any organizations or groups thatmake decisions that
will affect you, such as District D.O.T., county commis-
sion, city council, school board, chamber of commerce,
planning commission, town council and so forth.
I urge you to become involved in your government
and thereby become informed on issues that affect us. We
cannot make intelligent decisions unless we are informed
on the issues.

Elections equal theft facilitation
Unless elections are
confined to selecting ad-
ministrators of a legal sys-
tem, they are mostly about
mutual theft facilitation.
You elect:someone to
office so he\ or she will
garner the resources of
others and transfer them
to you or your favorites in
the community. And since
there is never enough to go
around, and people always
want more and more, the
process amounts to a mad
dish to be first in line at the
government's treasury.
And there is always the
ploy of borrowing against
the wealth of future genera-
tions, who aren't around to
protest much, needless to
note. No taxation without
representation, in your
dreams!
A clear case in point
is my neighbor down the
street. She works in a local
community college district,
I am told. For the past few
weeks there has appeared
on her fence facing out
toward the street a sign en-
dorsing a referendum that
supports, you guessed it,
added funds for community
colleges.
No other measure is
given support on this
neighbor's fence but this
one that serves a special
interest, certainly not the
public interest that defend-
ers of the welfare state
constantly invoke when

Opinion

they condemn those who
are skeptical about their
type of government.
This sign, that I see ev-
ery time I leave my home
or come back to it, is at
least implicitly honest. My
neighbor makes no bones,
about wanting the politi-
cal process to advance her
agenda. As to others, never
mind that. "Let them take
care of theirs, I'll look out
for mine" seems to be the
operative motto here.
The underlying hope
would seem to be that
enough people will be
fooled into thinking that
supporting her agenda is a
matter of the public inter-
est, so she will come out on
top and her institution will
get the support, not others
that are also using the po-
litical process to seek it.
In a recent letter re-
sponding to one of my
columns, I was chided for
failing to consider the pub-
lic interest, for being too
much of an individualist
instead of a citizen promot-
ing the public good. This
because I advocate that
government ought to focus
primarily, if not exclusive-
ly, on protecting the rights
of individuals and not on
handing out so-called en-
titlements to members of
various groups.
But what too many folks
today consider the public
interest really isn't to the
benefit of the public but
mostly to special groups or
even specific individuals.
So when Barack Obama
recently spoke in Kansas,
he said outright that he will
do right by the citizens of
Kansas at the expense, of
course, of all the rest of the
citizens of America.
Just like my neighbor
hopes from her local gov-
ernment, Senator Obama
was promising to deliver
the bacon to those whose
votes he was seeking at
others' expense.
The public interest, my
foot! The welfare state,
which pretends to take care
of all, is but a mad dash to
promise and seems eager to
deliver to everyone benefits
for which others are going
to pay. It is plainly fraudu-
lent it cannot be done.
But sadly millions of
people, when elections roll
around and when Congress
and various state assem-
blies are in session, get
their hopes up that they
will be the winners in the
effort to get others to pay
for what they want.
Of course, the result is
the tragedy of the com-
mons: resources are de-
pleted, and the country
goes into greater debt and
various groups of people
are angry at the rest who
prevented them from get-
ting what they believe they
are entitled to.
The idea of a free so-
ciety is that one must rel\
on one's \works and good
fortune and, now and then,
on the kindness of friends
and neighbors, in order
to get on with one's life,
not on theft facilitator.
The idea of our society, in
contrast, is for everyone to
try, each election, to rip off
everyone else,

I am glad to see the Holmes
County School Board make the deci-
sion to press the state to include other
theories for the origin or life along
with evolution.
I have very little formal education
on this matter; but it does not take

you that you

can ignore the fact that some kind of
supernatural event had to happen for
us to be here.
The question is just what kind of
event, or, how did we get here? '
I appreciate the concern of the
school board members, however, if
we want to change what is taught in
our schools we will have to do more
than write a letter to the Governor.
We will have to make a meaningful
effort to stop supporting the socialist
government.
The far left loves to see token let-
ters mailed; these simply quiet the
grumblings of a worried few without
intending to challenge anything that
would cause the system to change
course. For the letter to be meaning-
ful it has to have an implied intent
to do something more than soothe
someone's feelings. Einstein said that
the only definition of insanity is doing
the same thing over and over again
while expecting different results,
I chose to believe in the Bibli-
cal God, but I can not prove it by
logic. Neither can you prove where
we came from by applying current
science.
However, science can and does
show amazing patterns that parallel
many biblical truths, so instead of
science destroying faith in a biblical
savior, it does just what our Bible
does, it gives us hope. I see Christ in
the amazing properties of light and
I can easily visualize the age of the
universe to be a record of God's mind
during creation.
Of course you can only accept the
Bible as the ultimate truth if you are
a Christian. However do you-know
anyone who professes Christ that
does not doubt at times? You can have
a curious mind and be a believer, true
knowledge uncovers the truth.
There are many well-known non-
Christian scientists that openly refute
the claim of the atheist evolutionist.
For these it is not because of a search
for God that they refute evolution but
they cite a search for real truth as the
reason that they support the theory of
intelligent design.
Their writings can easily be found
in a book store or on the Internet.
Seek and you shall find, just ask for
information concerning intelligent
design...

captured the District 2-
3A Girls title as Shanida
Thomas' 38 points pointed
the way to a 72-55 win over
Marianna.
Chipley will host the
first round of the regional
tournament Friday night
at 7 p.m. Walton travels
to District 2 champion
Chipley on Thursday in the
regional quarterfinals.
Chipley got off to a fast
start, dominating the first
quarter to take a 23-9 lead
as Thomas scored 10 of her
points. Marianna managed
to scratch its way back to
trail just 25-16 midway
through the second quarter,
but Chipley went on a run
to close out the half with a
39-27 lead. Marianna never
got closer than 11 after that.
Shanida Gonzalez scored
14 for Chipley, while Keela
McKay led Marianna with
15 points.

Marianna beat Holmes

down the rest of the way.
Marianna was led by the
strong inside and outside
play of Keela McKay with

Ponce de Leon 41,
Baker 34 (OT)
Baker girls basketball
coach Kathy Combest
couldn't believe the final
numbers.
She had to double-check
the scorebook following
her Gator" 4-1-34 over-
time loss Saturday against
Ponce de Leon in the Dis-
trict 1-2A championship
game at Freeport.
The key stat in Comb-
est's eyes: Fourteen free
throws in 23 attempts for
the Pirates. Just two free
throws in four attempts for
Baker.
"That's the story," said
Combest, who had few
kind words about the North
Florida Officials Associa-
tion crew. "They didn't let
my girls play."
Baker (14-8) had its
string of four consecutive
district titles snapped. The
Gators will hit the road
Thursday for a regional
quarterfinal at Cottondale
or Blountstown.
Ponce de Leon improved
to 22-5.
The Pirate fans' point of
view: Ponce de Leon used
its height advantage to earn
those frequent trips to the
free throw line.
The Gator fans' point of
view: Baker didn't catch
any breaks.
"It's partly our fault
because we didn't take it
to the hole, but it's hard to
win whenever you only get
to shoot four free throws,"
said Baker senior Chelsea
Combest.
The Gators stayed close
despite the free-throw dis-
parity and a scoring drought
in the second half.
Baker tallied just seven
points in the last two quar-
ters and went scoreless in
the overtime.
A driving layup by
Ponce de Leon's Hillary
Harper gave the Pirates
a two-possession lead in
the extra session and put
the Gators in desperation
mode. The Pirates scored
the rest of their overtime
points on free throws.
Baker forced the over-
time on Samantha Gron-
berg's putbak with 30
seconds to go.
Maggie Wright (15
points) and Mary Howes
(10 points) did most of
the damage for Ponce de
Leon.
Chelsea Combest and
Gronberg led the Gators
with nine points apiece.

More on the top 10 items of the year
This week's story is
labeled No. 8 in the count-
down of the top 10 topics
from last year.
I have made numerous
attempts to write about the
life of my brother, Clyde,
who was killed in a tragic
plane crash Feb. 2, 1990, in
Pensacola. His friend, Jim
-Loudermilk, also perished
in the accident.
Clyde was sixth in the
sequence of 10 children
born to our parents. His
birth date is Aug. 14, 1932.
My sister, Hazel Wells Ti-
son, who writes The Happy
Corner for the Holmes
County Times, is one year
older than Clyde. She has
also written her perception
of Clyde's life.
Each of the siblings
seem to have more stories
pertaining to Clyde than of
any of the other children in
the large family, according
to Hazel.
Our brother had to take
over many of the farm
chores at an early age when
his brothers, Jim and Perry,
'were called to military
Sduty. It was routine for him
Sto kill, scald and clean a
"pork" for our dad to sell
on his winter time week-,
ly peddling trips to Bay
County. This was done all
by himself at an extremely
early age._
Clyde did not have the
privilege of enjoying the
Experience of learning to
drive. Out of necessity, he
"was driving the old 1940
Ford peddling pick up truck
around the farm hauling
'fire wood for the fireplace
"and wood-burning cook
stove, or sugar cane to the
2 mill for syrup making.
He drove for other farm
chores as well as driving
on the rural roads in the
neighborhood, all before
being old enough to obtain
a driver's license.
As a young child, Clyde
accidentally fell from the
high front porch of the
family dwelling, striking
his head on the supporting
concrete slab below.
The wound required
numerous stitches and he
carried a deep scar from the
cut throughout life. Com-
munity talk was that he
would never be "right."
In his early teens, Clyde
experienced being knocked
to the ground by an ex-
cited runaway steer which

Perry Wells
caused serious damage
to his front teeth, Dental
service, and money, was
scarce in the Wells house-
hold so his teeth were not
properly corrected.
After graduating from
high school and obtaining
a job, he had his teeth pro-
fessionally capped arid paid
the cost from his earnings.
Of all the writings on
Christo's 5 and 10 cent
stores, I never mentioned
that brother Clyde also
worked at Christo's ware-
house in Panama City.
This was after his first
job of washing dishes at
Tally-Ho Drive In. This
establishment is still a
prosperous business in
that city.
One of Clyde's co-
workers at Christo's was
Washington County native,
Leonard Finch, who later
became a law enforcement
officer in Bay and Wash-
ington counties. I knew
him first in Bay County.
Now it can be told that
Clyde was responsible
for reporting Christo's
Stores to the Wage and
Hour Board for failure to
pay the minimum wage to
employees.
This resulted in the
warehousemen and truck
drivers receiving a substan-
tial increase in pay. Leon-

ever entered law school!
On a delivery, Clyde
made by truck to Christo's
5 and 10 in Port St. Joe,
he applied for a job at the
St. Joe Box Plant. He was
hired immediately and in-
structed to be at work the
next morning.
He returned the Christo
vehicle to Panama City, left
a note on the windshield to
the effect he would not be,
working there any more.
Later, brother Max joined
him at the box plant job.
Clyde left the employment
when he was drafted into
the U.S. Army. Max contin-
ued working until enrolling
in FSU.
After military service
in Korea, Clyde entered
college at FSU. He and
Max "boarded" together
and worked part-time for
the Tallahassee Democrat,
delivering papers.
Clyde was employed
as a school teacher at
Apalachee Correctional
Institute upon graduation
from FSU.
While in this job, he
made an unsuccessful bid
in 1960 for the elected
position of county judge of
Washington County. After
losing the election by a nar-
row margin to Jahaza Wil-
liams May, Clyde enrolled
in the,University of Florida
Law School.
While in school, he mar-
ried Esteena Kry Wells,
a Jasper, Fla., resident.
As a practicing lawyer,
Clyde and Esteena made
their home in DeFuniak
Springs.
In 1972, he success-
fully outdistanced two op-
ponents and was elected
Circuit Judge of the First
Judical Circuit. He was
in his seventeenth year of
serving unopposed in this
office in DeFuniak Springs
when he met his untimely
death in the Pensacola
plane crash.
A new high-rise bridge,
replacing an older draw-
bridge spanning Choc-
tawhatchee Bay on U.S.
Highway 331 at Freeport
was well underway when
Clyde's accident hap-
pened.
Before the bridge was
completed, a move was
spearheaded in the Florida
Legislature by State Rep-
resentative Sam Mitchell
and State Senator Vince
Bruner, which resulted
in the beautiful, towering
structure being named the
Clyde B. Wells Bridge.
Florida Department of
Transportation officials
opened the new bridge in
February 1991, one year
after Clyde's death. District
3 Secretary W.E. (Bill)
Waddell described the new
bridge as being 3.1 miles
long with a 65-foot vertical
clearance and a 150-foot
horizontal clearance in the
main span.
"The new bridge is de-
signed with two 12-foot
lanes and two 10-foot safe-
ty shoulders that will aid in
a hurricane evacuation,"
explained Waddell.
Despite gusty cold
winds and rain, the Walton
County Chamber of Com-
mence held a dedication
ceremony at the bridge in
honor of the late Circuit
Judge Clyde Wells.
State Senators Pat
Thomas and Vince Bruner
joined the Wells family
and friends in unveiling a
memorial sign naming the
bridge after my brother
who had established him-
self as a, well-respected
citizen of Walton County.
DOT District Secretary
W.E. Waddell, District Di-
rectors, Edward Prescott,
Gene Martin and Marvin
Stuckey, and many other
visitors were also present
for the event.
I now see that it is ab-
solutely necessary that
next week's story, No. 7
in the countdown of last
year's topics, will cover
more details about my late
brother, Clyde.
See you-all next week.

gy's restaurant, K.C.'s Piz-
za in Vernon on Saturday
at 3:30 p.m. "I recognized
him when I saw him," Bill
said. "How could I not?"
"I'm the better looking
one," Don said.
Don and Bill Dobbins
sat down with their wives,
Lorraine and Peggy, Mon-
day night at Bill and Peg-
g.y's home in Vernon to tell
their story. It was the last
night for Don and Lorraine
before they headed back
to Laporte, Texas between
Houston and Dallas on
Tuesday morning.
They had enjoyed each
others' company for several
days, getting reacquainted
and telling about family
and life since the brothers'
last meeting in 1963,
The story began in North
Carolina. The parents were
unable to care for the two
boys and they were placed
in foster homes and finally
the Methodist Children's
Home in Winston-Salem.
Don eventually left the
home and went on in the
world, and last visited Bill
in 1963, taking a Grey-
hound bus from Texas to
North Carolina.

The two lost contact af-
ter that and over the years
they tried to find each other.
Don hunted Bill through
the Children's Home (still
in operation) and eventu-
ally used the computer to
run down names. Bill also
used the computer, but
neither had much success
until recently.
"I tried a number of
search engines, and finally
narrowed it down to three
names," Don said. The first
two were eliminated and
finally Don called the right
phone number and reached
Bill.
They found a lot of
things in common, includ-
ing owning red pickup
trucks, a love of fishing
and cooking Don bakes
and Bill owns a restaurant.
Both couples have small,
frisky dogs.
There were many peo-
ple and organizations that
helped with the search, and
the brothers expressed their
gratitude to all of them.
"I've not yet found one
that wasn't helpful," Don
said. "Everyone was con-
siderate and they seemed
to understand what I was
trying to do.
"Now I'm getting calls
from all over asking if I
have found my brother."

A SHERIFF SHOULD BE
/ RELIABLE $ DEPENDABLE
/ ACCESSIBLE i HONEST
/ FAIR
I would like to take this opportunity to announce my candi-
dacy for sheriff of Washington County.
I have lived in Washington County fog 14,years with my
wife of 23 years, Kathy, and four children, Ann, Michael Jr,
Alan and Gabby. We are members of Turning Point Church
of Chipley. I have been in the Army Reserve for 21 years and
have earned the rank of Master Sergeant. Seventeen of those
years in a leadership role. I own and operate a construction company (Southern Style Stucco)
which I have run successfully for 10 years. I have been a certified law enforcement officer for
11 years. I was with Washington County for 6 yrs and 10 mo., 3 1/2 years as a school resource
officer and DARE officer.
I bring law enforcement, business and leadership experience thus making me a multi-dimen-
sional Sheriff. After speaking with members of the community, I understand your concerns and
agree with them 100%. We need to aggressively attack the drug problem in our community. We
need to set up programs for our children, to be involved with them and to help guide them.
Deputies need to patrol the back roads as well as the main roads. All concerns and cares
need to be handled with the same respect, no matter if it's minor or major. Everyone will be
treated equally. It is time that the sheriff's department, the community and the police depart-
ment come together as one to make this community a better place to raise our families. This is
not a republican or democratic issue, this is a community issue. "This is not a me issue, but a
WE ISSUE" therefore making me available to everyone at all times. For me to be successful as
your sheriff, the community has to be involved. Together we can and will make a difference.
Thank you.

'Highwaymen' art
in state exhibit
Secretary of State Kurt S.
Browning announced today an
exhibition organized by the De-
partment of State entitled "The
Art of Florida's Highwaymen"
and initiated by Governor Char-
lie Crist as part of the statewide
celebration of Black History
Month, themed "Pioneering the
Future," the exhibition will be on
display Feb. 1 through Feb. 29 in
the Governor's. Gallery in the
Capitol. The exhibition will fea-
ture works from the collection of
Geoff Cook..Their work was re-
cently profiled in this paper.
The Highwaymen are a group
of African-American artists that
emerged during the 1950s and
1 960s. Unable to display and sell
their artwork in galleries, the art-
ists were forced to sell their paint-
ings from the trunks of their cars,
often traveling door-to-door.
Styled after the work of artist
A.E. Backus, the Highwaymen
produced more than 100,000
beautiful Florida landscapes.
In 2004, '26 Highwaymen
were inducted into the Florida
Artists Hall of Fame.
This exhibition is part of the
Florida Department of State, Di-
vision of Cultural Affairs' Capitol
Complex Exhibition Program.

New DMH to
be dedicated
Valentine's
JAY FELSBERG

The staff and administration
of' Doctor's Memorial Hospital
billed the original event as "Our
Valentine to Holmes County."
Now they plan a repeat perfor-
mance as the ribbon cutting will
be held for the new DMH on
Thursday, Feb. 14 at 10 a.m.
A number of Holmes Coun-
tians were on hand to enjoy that
Valentine's Day gift in 2007 as
the groundbreaking for the new
DMH % as celebrated Now, just
a 3ear later, the ribbon cutting
for the new hospital will be held
on Thomas Drive.
The new DMH will replace
the current, 49-year-old facility
in downtown Bonifay. The new,
25-bed critical access hospital
built on Thomas Drive just off
Interstate 10 south of Bonifay. It
is approximately 48,000 square
feet, about twice the size of the
current hospital.
While the ribbon cutting will
be held on Valentine's Day, CEO
Robert Winkler said that several
inspections and clearances by
state and federal authorities will
need to completed before the
new building is open for service.
Old DMH will remain in service
to provide care until the new fa-
cility receives its final approval.
Some equipment is being
moved or new equipment is be-
ing installed. Final cleanup is
being done this week and more
equipment and furnishings will
be moved in before the ribbon
cutting.
DMH was built in 1958 under
the Hill-Burton federal legisla-
tion and is a 25-bed rural, critical

Plans have been underway
for several years to build a new
hospital as the current building
proved less and less capable of
meeting the medical needs of the
area DMH serves.
A number of improvements
have been made and up-to-date
equipment installed. The cur-

in geographically, has no room
to expand either the building or

further improvements.

TECH TIPS
Tips provided on electrical work
Curtis Green is the in-
structor for Washington-
Holmes Technical Center's
electrician program. Green

almost three years. He has

cal contractor since 1992.
Incandescent Lamps
(lightbulbs)
Do your light bulbs
seem to blow out before
their "advertised life ex-
pectancy?" It could be
due to fluctuations of the
power in your home that
are uncontrollable. How-
ever, there are a couple of
things you can do to help
alleviate this problem.
*When purchasing re-
placement incandescent
lamps, make sure that
they are rated for 130V
use. This will generally
increase the life of your
lamps.
*Replace your incan-
descent lamps with the
new compact fluorescent
lamps. These lamps come
in a wide assortment of
sizes and shapes for many
different uses.
Compact fluorescent
lamps have a 2-4 times
greater life span than in-
candescent and usually re-
quire less than half of the
power for the same light
output.
Compact fluorescent
lamps are initially more
expensive, but the combi-
nation of a longer life and
the decreased power con-
sumption will prove them
to be more cost effective.
Curtis Green
If your lamps continue
to blow after trying these
remedies, contact a quali-
fied electrician because
you may have other prob-
lems.
Receptacle Outlets
Outlets in your home or
business sometimes wear
out. Here are some ques-
tions to ask yourself when
plugging or unplugging
something that may help
you determine if an outlet
needs to be replaced.
*Do I have to wiggle
the plug?
*Does the plug fall out
of the outlet?
*Does the plug droop so
I can see the prongs in the
outlet?
*Does the plug or outlet
feel hot?
*Does the outlet make a
noise (sizzling, popping or
crackling)?
If you answer yes to
any of these questions, the
outlet may need to be re-
placed. Contact a qualified
person to check your out-
lets and replace any defec-
tive ones.

A "GFCI" is a ground
fault circuit interrupter. A
GFCI is an inexpensive
electrical device required
that, if installed in house-
hold branch circuits, could
prevent over two-thirds
of the approximately 300
electrocutions still oc-
curring each year in and
around the home.
A GFCI is now required
by the National Electric
Code for kitchen counter
tops, bathrooms, unfin-"
ished garages, basements,
and outdoors. When in use,
it continuously measures
the amount of current on
each current-carrying wire
and if an imbalance oc-
curs, the GFCI instantly
stops the flow of current
preventing a prolonged
electric-shock.
If you have these devic-
es in your home or busi-
ness,';they should be tested
monthly as they do some-
times fail. If replacement
is necessary, contact a
qualified person to replace
the defective GFCI.
Owners of homes that
do not have GFCls in-
stalled in all those critical
areas specified in the latest
version of the Code should
consider having them in-
stalled.

Always know that God has a plan for you
When I was growing up
I didn't completely under-
stand what prayer was or
how it worked. I thought
no matter what I prayed
for God would grant me
it if I asked in prayer. I
would pray for things like
a go-cart, puppies, and nu-
merous toys. Many times
I did not receive these
things and I thought that
God wasn't answering my
prayers.
Well, as I grew up I
began to understand that
God always answers our
prayers, just maybe not the
way we always want Him
to. An example of this is
like when Paul prayed that
God would take away his
thorn in the flesh and did
not. Paul understood be-
cause of this infirmity he
was made stronger by it
and took pleasure in it.
There are times when
we may want something
that really is not best for
us. There may be times
when God wants us to wait
a while before He grants
us what we request. It may
just be God has a different
plan than we have and we
need to be patient and have
faith things will work out
the way God wants them
to. The following illustra-
tion of the "Three Trees"
makes this point.
Once there were three
trees on a hill in the
woods. They were dis-
cussing their hopes and
dreams when the first tree
said "Someday I hope to
be a treasure chest. I could
be filled with gold, silver
and precious gems. I could
be decorated with intricate
carvings and everyone
would see the beauty."
Then the second tree
said "Someday I will be
a mighty ship. I will take

because of the strength of
my hull."
Finally, the third tree
said "I want to grow to be
the tallest and straightest
tree in the forest. People
will see me on top of the
hill and look up to my
branches, and think of the
heavens and God and how
close to them I am reach-
ing. I will be the greatest
tree of all time and people
will always remember
me..."
After a few years of
praying that their dreams
would come true, a group
of woodsmen came upon
the trees. When one came
to the first tree he said,
"This looks like a strong
tree, I think I should be
able to sell the wood to a
carpenter." And he began
cutting it down. The tree
was happy, because he
knew that the carpenter
would make him into a
treasure chest.
At the second tree a
woodsman said, "This
looks like a strong tree, I
should be able to sell it to
the shipyard." The second
tree was happy because he
knew he was on his way to
becoming a mighty ship.
When the woodsmen
came upon the third tree,
the tree was frightened be-
cause he knew that if they
cut him down his dreams
would not come true. One
of the woodsman said, "I
don't need anything spe-
cial from my tree so I'll
take this one" and he cut
it down.
When the first tree ar-
rived at the carpenters, he
was made into a feed box
for animals. He was then
placed in a barn and filed
with hay. This was not at
all what he had prayed
for.
The second tree was
cut and made into a small
fishing boat. His dreams
of being a mighty ship and
carrying kings' had come
to an end.
The third tree was cut
into large pieces and left
alone in the dark. The
years went by and the trees
forgot about their dreams.
Then one day, a man
and woman came to the
barn. She gave birth and
they placed the baby in
the. hay in the feed box
that was made from the
first tree. The man wished
that he could have made a
crib for the baby, but this
manger would have to do.
The tree could feel the
importance of this event
and knew that it had held
the greatest treasure of all
time.
Years later, a group of
men got in the fishing boat
made from the second tree.
One of them was tired and
went to sleep. While they
were out on the water, a
great storm arose and the
tree didn't think it was
strong enough to keep the
men safe. The men woke
the sleeping man, and he
stood and said "peace"'
and the storm stopped. At
this time, the tree knew
that it had carried the king
of kings in its boat.
Finally, someone came
and got the third tree. It was
carried through the streets
as the people mocked the
man who was carrying it.
When they came to a stop,
the man was nailed to the
tree and raised in the air
to die at the top of a hill.
When Sunday came, the
tree came to realize that
it was strong enough to
stand at the top of the hill
and be as close to God as
was possible, because Je-
sus had been crucified on
it.
The moral of this story
is that when things don't
seem to be going your way,
always know that God has
a plan for you. If you place
your trust in Him, He will
give you great gifts.
Each of the trees got
what they wanted, just not
in the way they had imag-
ined. We don't always
know what God's plans
are for us. We just know
that His ways are not our
ways, but His ways are al-
ways best.
God says in Isaiah 55:8-
9, "For my thoughts are
not your thoughts, neither
are your ways my ways,
saith the Lord. For as the
heavens are higher than
the earth, so are my ways
higher than your ways,
and my thoughts than your
thoughts."
Wes Webb is minister of
Chipley Church of Christ
at 638-2366.
Today it seems "they"
have a name and a drug
for everything that "they"
say is not normal. Actually
I often wonder who "they"
are comparing the rest of
us to.
One of the main things
that people ridicule about
me is that I move fast,
and I talk fast. Actually
the truth is, I hope you're
reading fast, because I
wrote this fast. Justbe glad
that I typed it, because if I
had written it long hand,
you would not be able to
read it.
Do you get the point?
So often I wonder why
everyone else is so slow..
I'm really glad "they" did
not do as much as "they"
do with drugs today, when
I was in school. "They"
would have had me on
Ritalin and no telling what
else.
But I think I turned out
all right, because my dad
and mom knew what drugs
I needed, they 'drug' me to
church three or four times
a week. If we didn't have
something going on at
our church, there was one
within fifty miles that did.
And they also knew how
to apply the love straps, (as
the Bible teaches), which
often made me think be-
fore I sat down, and before
I acted out again.
Even as an adult, I think,
talk and write so fast I of-
ten get things backward
and mispronounce words.
And I've discovered if
people love me, they love
me with all my faults and
laugh along with me, and
if they hate me, they usu-
ally hate for the same rea-
sons, because I'm not per-
fect like they are.
I discovered by read-
ing "Preaching Now" that
"they" have named anoth-
er one of my little defects.
It's a new medical term
called RLS, which stands
for "Restless Leg Syn-
drome."
You see, you actually
don't want to sit close to
me in church or at a con-
cert, because my legs
are always bouncing,
even when I'm reading
or watching TV. There is
something about me that
is always moving. Appar-
ently it is a condition that
keeps people from sleep-
ing well and creates other
serious problems.
So "they" are doing ex-
perimental drug treatment
to try to control it. Hope-
fully I'll be gone to a bet-
ter land and have a new
body, before "they" .finish
their research. Because I
like me just like God made
me.
But you know there is
a problem "they" should
spend more time research-
ing. A problem that is wide
spread and contagious in
churches, small communi-
ties and anywhere a group
of people meet on a regu-
lar basis. It's called RTS,
"Restless Tongue Syn-
drome."
Michael Duduit, editor
for "Preaching Now" also
wrote about RTS and said,
"I can't begin to tell you
the number of RTS suffer-
ers I've run across over the
years people who can't
bring themselves to silence
their voices even for a mo-
ment, but talk endlessly
about subjects large and
small (usually small)."
I think if "they" could
From the
Heart
Tim Hall
find a cure for RTS, it
would become the greatest
discovery of our day, be-
cause it would save most
marriages, all the problems
in local churches, and cure
many heart attacks and
nervous breakdowns, and
even cause world peace to
take place.
But I know there is not
a cure that man can come
up with, for the Bible
says, "... the tongue can no
man tame; it is an unruly,
evil, full of deadly poison
(James 3:8 KJV)."
So unfortunately, there
is no drug available to
cure RTS. But there is a
cure, and you would think
church people would know
about it and use it; it's the
Cross. RTS can be and will
be cured when a person
gives their life and their
tongue to Christ.
For once a person re-
ceives Christ as their Lord,
their desire then should
be, "to be like Christ" and
Christ says we are to love
others as we love our-
selves.
I've never heard a per-
son deliberately go out
and bring disgrace to their
own name, but they will
lie about a neighbor. Actu-
ally I think I can say that
all gossip is lying, and I
think someone said, liars
shall not enter Heaven or
something like that.
So, before you share
something about someone
else, you need to ask your-
self three questions.
(1) Do I know beyond a
shadow of a doubt that this
is true, meaning you have
actually talked to the per-
son. you are talking about,
and they have confirmed it
to be true?
(2) Will what I am shar-
ing benefit both parties,
the one I am talking too
and about?
(3) Is Christ going to
receive honor and glory
through what I am shar-
ing?
If any of the answers
to any of these questions
are "no," then you need
to lay your tongue upon
the Cross, that it might be
sanctified unto Christ.
Just as my dad used the
Bible remedy for my prob-
lems as a child, so must we
use it for RTS.

'S; Life Is A Test
I' I like orthmk of ourexistence in this world as a trial period,
and that each day we-are confronted with various trials and
tests..Hopefully, we are-passing more of these life tests than -
-we.aretailingW.e should alWays be aware that we belong to
.'G.d;. h.eP, ,we are notalways spared the suffering and
S".. trials of this world. God has always
.';.: been with us in the past and He
Swill continue to see us through the
various tribulations in our future.
Life without faith is very demanding,
and the Bible tells us that faith is
the confident assurance of knowing
that what we hope for is going to
.. \ happen; it is the evidence of things
we cannot yet see. Each adversity
that we are faced with will help us
to grow and to make us a stronger
and better person. And. with each
test that we endure, we can imagine
our Lord saying to us,"Well done, you
good and faithful servant."
Here is my servanr, whom I have chosen,
the one I lone. and with whom I om pleased.

COMMUNITY NEWS
Bonifay Book Club
The Bonifay Book Club met in the home of Betty
Taylor Jan. 8. Newly-elected president Wanda Howell
presided. Secretary Mable Harris read the minutes of the
previous meeting.
Jo Cone, program leader, reviewed "Now and Then"
by Robert B. Parker.
Parker has long been acknowledged as the dean of
American crime fiction. His novels, featuring the wise-
cracking, street-smart Boston private eye, Spenser, have
earned him a devoted following and reams of critical ac-
claim.
In this latest book, a simple case turns into a treacher-
ous and politically-charged investigation. Spenser has
to keep his cool while his beloved girlfriend Susan is in
danger. Client Doherty asks Spenser to investigate his
wife Jordan's abnormal behavior. But what should have
been an ordinary case of a marital affair, turns into a
murder investigation when three people are found dead.
Spenser is in a hornets' nest of trouble.
Mrs. Taylor served refreshments to Joyce Brannon,
Cynthia Brooks, Jo Cone, Mable Harris, Barbara How-
ell, Wanda Howell, Terri McCormick, Edna McDonald,
DiAnn Shores, Dianne Smith and Hazel Tison.

safe? Whether it is a small planting of flowers, shrubs, or vegetables, or a total landscape makeover, the joy of
accomplishment is the same.
One of the joys of our work is going by landscape jobs we have completed and seeing it all working so well.
The sod we installed is clean and neat, the flowers, shrubs and trees flourishing. In dry weather, it is great to
see the irrigation we installed working properly, keeping everything green and healthy without wasting water
on the pavement or down the drain. In wet weather, it is great to see the leveling and drainage we did working
properly. But the best is part of our job is hearing good comments from our customers and word-of-mouth recom-
mendations. We strive to do it right the first time, but we go back until everyone is satisfied. It is a promise that
has served us well. We appreciate all of you for your business.
We offer a full line of services. Landscape design and layout using old-fashioned drafting plus
state-of-the-art computer-generated virtual reality is helpful for the overall vision. The equipment
and experience needed to implement the plan, the knowledge to design and install the irrigation for
maximum efficiency and ease of use, the plants, trees and shrubs from our garden center/nursery,
the sod grown locally. at Billy Brock Farms and the professional staff able and willing to make sure
it is done right adds up to a job well done. No job too big or too mall, We take pride in them all.
We are fully insured and bondable. We are a FNGLA certified landscape contractor. Give ,'"
us a call or visit us at the garden center or sod farm. We look forward to a great year.

State Farm donates computers
Washington-Holmes Technical Center was delighted
to receive twelve ToughBook computers from the Florida
Zone Estimatics Department of State Farm Insurance.
The donation was arranged by local State Farm Agent,
Linda Pforte and Bobby Harvey, Estimating Team man-
ager from Pensacola. Each Panasonic ToughBook meets
a high level of durability for tough work environments.
The insurance company uses the computers for its
traveling estimators and replaces them about every two
years for the updated version.
The computers are loaded with Windows XP, Micro-
Soft Office applications, and an auto-estimator program.
They also have integrated wireless internet access, touch
screens and virtual keyboards.
Four of the computers will be used by the Automo-
tive Collision Repair and Refinishing Program so stu-
dents can learn to prepare vehicle repair estimates using
the automated program. The remaining computers will
be distributed to various other educational programs at
WHTC.
