BY DANNY JONES THE GAZETTEAlthough he had mounted an early effort in a race for

sheriff of Gibson County, Joe Shepard, former sheriff and current county mayor, formally announced his candidacy for

state representative Thursday and will face incumbent State Rep. Curtis Halford, a Republican, in August.

Speaking at the monthly meeting of the Gibson County Democratic Party at the Agri-Plex in Trenton, Shepard brought an end to speculation as to exactly which office he would seek and attempted to put to rest rumors concerning his residency. “My residency is 5061 Middle Road, Milan, and may be

documented by my driver’s license, voter registration and other data, such as a portion of the mortgage. I do not live in Hardin County, although I have a home there for investment

YORKVILLE MARKET - The country store Yorkville Market is a gathering place for the whole community to eat, shop, swap tales and share news. Among those enjoying a regular get-together are (from left counter clockwise) Jimmy Zarecor, George Clark, Tim Scott, Josh Turner, Ryan Pope, (standing) owners Charlene Baisentine, and Paula Harrison.

Kenneth (Kenny) Flowers formally announces his candidacy for Gibson County Mayor subject to the May 5 Democratic primary.

Flowers was raised and worked on the family farm near Rutherford. He graduated from Rutherford High School, class of 1970, and a graduate of Nashville Auto Diesel College. He was a crew chief and obtained the rank of sergeant while serving in the Tennessee National Guard. In his younger years he was a member of the Farm Bureau Young Farmers and Homemakers Organization, and later served as a director of Farm Bureau.

He has worked for several different John Deere dealerships in Florida, Missouri and Tennessee. During his working career he has been in leadership roles such as service manager and customer

Gibson County Register of Deeds Hilda T. Patterson announces her candidacy for re-election, subject to the May 4 primary election.

Patterson was first employed by the register’s office in 1965. After the retirement of Bill Manning in 1988, Patterson was elected to her current position and has held it continuously since then.

She is a member of the West Tennessee Register’s Association, the Tennessee Register’s Association

With the qualifying deadline of noon, Thursday, February 18, for county offices, Administrator of Elections Molly Bailey states the following have filed petitions to run for various offices:

In the May 4, Democratic Primary incumbents Sheriff Chuck Arnold, Circuit Clerk Janice Jones, Trustee LeAnne Smith, Register of Deeds Hilda Patterson will be running unopposed. With the retirement of County Clerk Diane Taylor, Deputy Clerk Joyce Brooks-Brown is seeking that office on the Democratic Primary ballot. Running for the Juvenile Court Clerk’s position in the Democratic Primary is Keith Cunningham.

purposes, along with property in the Humboldt area,” Shepard said.

“I am asking you to elect me as state representative from Gibson County. I have worked with the legislature, know the ropes and how to get things done in Nashville,” Shepard said. “I am going to try to get some jobs for this area. We have been the step-child far too long and if there is anything I can do, we are going to bring some jobs here,” he said.

On another matter Shepard said he would never vote for unfunded mandates sent down to the county from the state. “After the 2010 census, there is going to be some re-districting. If I am your legislator, I will fight to keep Gibson County from being burst up. I know I have your friendship, now I need your help. Get 5000 to vote for me and I’ll take care of business in Nashville,” he said. He thanked Corbin Gibson, county party chair, for the tremendous effort in getting 77 people to the meeting.

Ironically, the man he was to face in the run for sheriff, incumbent Sheriff Chuck Arnold, now the Democratic nominee, was asked to present the speaker. “I’m going to call on another now, a politician, long-time public servant who gave me a job in law enforcement and that is Joe Shepard,” the sheriff said. “Our differences have been resolved and our friendship restored,” he added. Shepard, in turn thanked his friend for introducing him. “I told him that unopposed is the best way to run.”

Gibson then recognized all those running for county offices and allowed them time to make brief statements concerning

Tea Party catches fire in Gibson Co.

BY MICHAEL ENOCHSSomeone in the media made the comment recently

that there were no country stores left anywhere. The country store has gone extinct.

Back in the “good old days” the country store was a staple in rural communities, selling all manner of goods, ranging from tools for the farm to canned goods for the kitchen.

The country store provided another vital service for the community as a gathering place to swap tales and gossip, and to catch up on the latest news from near and far. There have been many a fond memory made, sitting in a country store, shooting the breeze with neighbors, while enjoying thick slabs of rag bologna and hoop cheese smothered in mayonnaise between slices of white bread, all washed down with cold, fizzing Coca Cola.

Most country stores have gone the way of the horse and buggy as automobiles and highways transformed America into a mobile society. The convenience mart replaced the country store and gas station. The trouble is, no one bothered to tell the good people of Yorkville, Tennessee at the Yorkville Market that they are supposed to be an old memory, or a line in some history book.

For those city slickers who believe the country store is extinct, seeing the Yorkville Market for the first time might be as surprising as finding a brontosaurus browsing on the front lawn. The store, unlike the unfortunate brontosaurus, is alive and well, and thriving, on Highway TN 77 in the center of the small community of Yorkville. There are usually several cars, pickups and farm trucks in the parking lot as folks from the surrounding communities drop in to do more than just shop. There are also cross-country

truck drivers who make it a point to stop and eat when their route brings them through the area. For the truck drivers coming down from the northern states, it is the delicious rag bologna sandwiches the store serves that keeps them coming back. It seems they don’t have rag bologna up north.

Charlene Baisentine and her family are the owners of the store now. They have had the store for 12 years and have seen a lot of changes since that time. The country store has adapted with the changes, although it keeps all the essentials that make it a country store. Baisentine explained, “It is still like a home to the customers. They come in to eat and to visit with everyone. Generations have grown up in this store. We had kids that could hardly see over the counter that are now grownups who bring their kids. Many of the old timers who were here when we bought the business have passed on over the years. Just to mention a few, there was Bob Zarecor who had come in for years. If Mr. Bob wasn’t here each day, then, something had to be wrong. Others who made the store a home away from home for years were Rossie Tate, Bill Miller, and Gene Stafford.”

As generations pass on, their sons and daughters

An important reminder from the Gibson - North Relay For Life committee

“The problem with our national political system,” the man said, “is that one party is insane, and the other is incurably stupid.” (He actually named the parties, but I’d better not.) The other people in the conversation, in spite of the fact that they expressed general approval of Congressman Tanner and our two senators, nodded in agreement.

Speaking of a television report of a congressional committee meeting he had seen earlier, someone else asked, “How did those clowns ever get elected?

“Because,” a third person answered, “good people won’t run.”

That’s not true, of course. Tennessee is blessed with several good men and women who have put themselves out as candidates for national office. The question is, why? Who, in his or her right mind, would want to spend a substantial part of their lives pandering to an electorate even crazier than the dysfunctional political parties they love to scorn?

Many things are said about American democracy, but that voters are smart, or that they make rational decisions, usually aren’t among them.

Just the opposite. People whose business it is to gauge public opinion in America constantly marvel at how ignorant and irrational we are when it comes to

making important political decisions.

Both republicans and democrats, they tell us, are prone to embrace totally ridiculous ideas and to reject sound ones.

And ironically, in an age when our educational level (at least in terms of schooling) is at its peak, things seem to be getting worse in the department of stupid things people believe. Seemingly intelligent and sophisticated men and women embrace all sorts of conspiracy theories and weird ideas, “counter knowledge” some people call it.

This is nothing new, of course. At one time a substantial number of people believed, and some still do, that NASA faked the moon landings in the late 60’s and early70’s in an Arizona desert.

And what about Elvis? Remember when all sorts of people bought into the idea that he had faked his death to get a little respite from constant stardom?

Did Lyndon Johnson orchestrate the assassination of John Kennedy? I know people who still argue vehemently that he did, in spite of the fact that Kennedy’s death is possibly the single most investigated event in history, and that NONE of the evidence or legitimate research supports any of the wacky proposals floating around about how

it happened; people still buy into, and hold on to, all sorts of bizarre conspiracy theories about it.

And how about the British government’s having arranged for the car crash that killed former Princess Diana? Or the Kennedy family’s connection to the death of Marilyn Monroe? People cling to irrational beliefs, in spite of all proof to the contrary. The man convinced against his will, as they say, is of the same opinion still.

People, to use a psychological term, are nuts! A South American college professor recently proclaimed that the earthquake in Haiti was caused by a secret, United States underground nuclear test. Who would believe such a thing? All sorts of people.

Just as 35 percent of democrats, according to a recent poll, believe President Bush knew about the 911 attacks in advance. And 36 percent of republicans believe President Obama’s Hawaii birth certificate is a fake.

Twenty-three percent of Americans say they have personally been in the presence of a ghost, and, get this, 18 percent believe the sun revolves around the earth.

History? Twelve percent, on one survey, identified Joan of Arc as the wife of Noah. Only one out of

four could name our first president. Just 10 percent knew how many justices sit on the Supreme Court, and only 14 percent could name the author of the Declaration of Independence.

Religion? Fifty-five percent of Americans believe Christianity was established by the Constitution as our official government religion, but 60 percent of Americans cannot name five of the Ten Commandments. Fifty percent of all high-school seniors think Sodom and Gomorrah were husband

and wife, and one out of three guessed that the Sermon on the Mount was delivered by Billy Graham.

Belief in the traditional religions may be waning, but 35 percent of all Americans believe in UFO’s, 31 percent in witches and 25 percent in astrology. Sixteen percent believe there are people who have the ability to cast curses or spells on others, and 33 percent believe aliens have visited earth.

Geography? Eighty percent can’t find Iraq on a map; some can’t even find America. Nearly 40 percent

can’t name the ocean just off our east coast.

The lack of knowledge and information most voters have, along with their sheer ignorance of how government works, or should work, coupled with the inordinate powers that even small interest groups can exert on the political process, truly make today’s electorate one of the greatest dangers facing America.

Of course we’re not getting the candidates we want at the national level; we’re getting what we deserve instead.

We see on our TV screens commercials brought to us every day by the American Cancer Society. These concentrate on the society being the Official Sponsor of Birthdays.

Thanks to the research and education funded by the money that our Relay has raised, many of us, and many you know, are having those birthdays.

10 YEARS AGO FEBRUARY 24, 2000Across Gibson County,

gasoline prices have jumped as high as many folks can remember. Customers are complaining, gas station managers say, but sales have remained steady. At Barron’s Quick Stop in Dyer, regular gas is $1.39 a gallon. At Little General in Dyer the price per gallon is $1.35.

A move outside city limits prompted Rutherford alderman Billy Hime to resign his position at the Monday night board meeting.

Yorkville Ruritans Robert Galloway, Mark Miller and Jim Payne won the People’s Choice chili award at the Greater Gibson County Chamber of Commerce Chili Cook-off.

The Lady Pioneers are District runners-up and advance to the regionals. The Ladies finished their season with a 21-8 record. Team members are Brooke Henson, Amanda Cunningham, Ashley Patterson, Samantha Nafieh, Jessica Johnson,

Amber Thornton, Ashley Gammons, Jill Johnson, April Reddick, Jennifer Farrar, Brooke Smith, Crystal Huey, Amber Gammons, Melissa George, Becky Hanks, Ashley Simpson, Hayden Avery and Ashley Mackin. Avery and Hanks made All-District and All-Tournament teams. Farrar made All-Tournament and Simpson made All-District.

The week of February 13-19 was designated ‘Career and Technical Education Week’ in Tennessee. GCHS is proud of the nine technical program areas offered. In addition to classroom instruction and hands-on lab components, each area is affiliated with a student organization.

GCHS officials announced the promotion of Brandon Duncan to the position of head football coach. Coach Duncan has served as defensive coordinator and line coach at GCHS since 1992.

25 YEARS AGO FEBRUARY 28, 1985Kenton Mayor Damon

Cross was honored by

the Modern Woodmen of America at an awards dinner at Barron’s Restaurant in Kenton. Modern Woodman district manager Dayne Hawks presented a plaque of recognition to the mayor and read a detailed list of his accomplishments.

The Kenton Warriors defeated Halls in the District 13-A tournament action at Greenfield last week and captured the championship title. They are Jeff Garner, Eric Brooks, Thomas White, Wayman Hannamon, Carl Bell, Gerald Hurt, Carl Bell, Gerald Hurt, Tracy Isbell, Shane Cisco, Kim Simpson, Lee Upchurch, Neil White, Jeff Chandler, Kelly Whitworth and Gary Banks.

George Selph and Mike Pool were ‘ballooned and tuned’ by Beverly’s Balloons and Tunes of Trimble on Valentine’s Day in the cafeteria at Kellwood Company. Employees of department one, who work with George and Mike, were responsible for the affair and joined in the fun.

The Lady Pioneers, after upsetting the Lady Bulldogs and the Lady Vikings, were able to grab the District 14AA Championship in the district tournament. A strong fourth quarter surge with clutch shots by Tammy Keymon and Vanessa Simpson were not enough as Westview won 55-47.

The Rutherford Junior High cheerleaders sponsored a Valentine Dance in the school gym. The dance was held to celebrate the Rutherford Junior High basketball championship year. The cheerleaders are Sonja Hall, Christy Hall, Andrea Riggins, Brandi Duncan, Stacy Watson and Jennifer DeSouza.

Gibson - North Relay For Life Survivor Stories

BY WILLIAM G. MCFARLANDThis is the first of our survivor series stories brought to

you by the Gibson – North Relay for Life and The Tri-City Reporter. We will bring you success survivor stories during the next few months. The Gibson – North Relay for Life will be held June 25, 2010.

John Campbell, a Gibson County High School math teacher, was one who hated going to the doctor and one who felt that 95 percent of illnesses would resolve in 10 – 14 days. A six-year survivor of colon cancer, John experienced no symptoms which would indicate his problem. Yet, the silent killer was within his body makings its move day by day.

Doctors Batey and Nuako discovered the problems after a simple screening and within two weeks of the discovery, John had surgery.

“I had a colectomy. The top half of my large intestines was removed,” said Campbell.

John had a three-day stay in intensive care followed by two more days of recovery before he was released from the hospital. In less than three weeks he returned to work. Since his surgery John has had three follow up colonoscopies. Results have shown that John is cancer free.

“Being told you have cancer cannot be described unless you have been thrown into this situation.” John stated, “I suddenly became aware of my own mortality. My first thoughts were that I was too young. This only happens to ‘old’ people. Because of that simple screening, a possible problem was identified. The colonoscopy verified the problem and it was surgically corrected. A colonoscopy two to five years earlier could have found the tumor when it was a precancerous polyp.”

John has learned from having cancer that, “Cancer is scary. It does not have to be deadly. By adhering to a healthy lifestyle and getting recommended screenings, one can keep his health in check.”

John is a prime example of one who thought everything would be taken care of on its own, but like so many, he found the opposite to be true. That simple screening possibly saved his life.

“I am thankful to all who made it (doctors, nurses, education) possible and supported me throughout the ordeal,” John stated in reference to his being a survivor. A resident of Rutherford, John has one son and two granddaughters.

SIX-YEAR CANCER SURVIVOR - John Campbell, a math teacher at Gibson County High School, is a six-year cancer survivor. A simple screening detected a problem and saved his life.

Lowrance Chapel By Jerry Bell

Continuing sickness affected attendance Sunday with some of our most faithful members out with the flu like sickness. We missed them, and send our wishes and prayers to God on their behalf. But we did have good attendance at both Sunday services and Bible studies. We are winding up our year long studies of the book of Isaiah and invite you to attend our Sunday morning sessions with a study of Isaiah, chapters 63 trough 66 for the next few weeks. Isaiah predicted the arrival of Jesus, the promised Messiah, in Jerusalem to set up His kingdom which would last forever.

But we turn now to the sermon at morning worship. The sermon, presented by brother Benny McVay, was on ship wreck of the faith. To illustrate the importance of the sinking of the ship Titanic. It was supposed to be unsinkable. Supposedly the passengers were not concerned as the ship entered iceberg filled waters.

The captain saw the iceberg, but having been told that the ship was able to withstand anything, ordered full speed ahead, supposedly hoping to set a record for speed in reaching his destination. The rest is history, as the ship ran close to the iceberg, but was going so fast that it was unable to steer away in time. A big gash in the side caused the “unsinkable” ship to sink, and many were drowned because it was not carrying sufficient lifeboats.

Benny made the point that it is the same with our faith. We need to be prepared for the “iceberg of life.” We may encounter many obstacles to our smooth sailing through life. If we are not prepared by close adherence to God’s word it may well be that our faith will be destroyed.

There are people, like Hymenaeus and Alexander, who will tell us things, and

teach things, which may well shipwreck our faith. Satan is busy using such. He seeks to destroy our faith. He will use everything in his arsenal to keep us from being faithful.

One of his greatest weapons is to lead us to absent ourselves from regular church services. He will convince us that some type of entertainment which keeps us up to late on Saturday night leads us to sleeping in on Sunday. But beware! This could easily be the damaging iceberg which leads to the shipwreck of our faith. Benny’s final comments were to pay attention and change direction before it is absolutely too late.

This not only applies to absenting ourselves from assembling with the saints, Hebrews 10:25, but several other dangers in the sea of life. Steer your life by the word of God, the Holy Bible!

The evening sermon, by myself, dealt with the Christ Ordained Memorial, which is the Lord’s Supper to be taken every first day of the week. Like the Passover of the Jews, it was instituted the night before what it commemorated (Matthew 26:26-28.) The time and place of its observance was specified. It was to be eaten in the kingdom that was established with the shedding of Jesus’ blood.

That Kingdom exists today as His church. And partaking of the Lord’s Supper is a special event that reminds us each first day of the week of the horrible death He experienced as a sacrifice for mankind’s sins. There fore it should be observed with thoughts centered on his death. And the apostle Paul warns that it should be done in a worthy manner. (I Corinthians 11;26) This indicates the manner in which it should be taken, with minds centered on his sacrifice of death for our sins.

We’ve had some pretty weather this week.

Patricia Rickman gave a praise report about her progress with her injury.

Ms. Connie sang a beautiful song about being “Down On Your Knees”.

Yours truly was in charge of the children’s sermon. I continued with the valentine theme of showing love to others.

I counted 63 for our morning service. The night service had a good crowd. Bro. Don is still teaching from Revelation. The food was good at Dub’s Diner. Our youth are some good cooks as they spent all Sunday afternoon going to different homes to prepare the meal.

Bro. Don’s sermon was titled, “Why are you who you are, what you are, and where you are?” In other words what are we doing to fulfill our Savior’s calling. His text 1 Timothy 1:18. Bro. Don encouraged us to

fight like our soldiers are trained and not be just pew warmers. In verse 15 Paul states why he is where he is that Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am chief. In 1 Tim 6 Paul says you are given the charge when you come to Jesus for salvation, you are no longer yours, you are bought with a price. This is our day for Christ. Our day to make a difference in this world. If you do not cry out for the church you love so much who will cry in your place? God is asking today. Will you please say send me. Who is gonna change? What does a man gain if he gains the whole world and loses his soul? Who and what are you in the kingdom?

Bro. Don continues to ask everyone to attend Sunday School. That is where we learn and ask questions. If you miss Sunday School you have missed half the lesson.

Former First Baptist Church pastor, Rev. Hoyt Wilson returned to Kenton recently for the sad occasion of officiating at the funeral of Mrs. Barbara Nelson. Mrs. Nelson passed away on February 10 at the Jackson Madison County General Hospital and was laid to rest at Sunnyside Cemetery in Kenton on February 14. We extend our deepest condolences to her friends and loved ones who suffer this great loss.

Cindy Lamar had a most enjoyable day Thursday as she visited with her cousin, Myrna Parks in Hickman, Ky. The cousins spent the entire day together talking about their dreams and sharing memories.

They also enjoyed a lovely lunch together that was as attractive as it was delicious. Before leaving for home Cindy and Myrna drove to Sassafras Ridge to visit with Sam and Doris Weatherly, Mrs. Lamar’s aunt and uncle.

Local businessman, Bill Sanderson announced last week that he would once again be running for the office of State

What a wonderful Spring like Sunday we had this week. Our quiet music was beautiful as Janice and Tina played “Here We Are To Worship.”

Call to worship was “Holy Ground” and the offeratory was “Just A Closer Walk With Thee.” The choir did “Heaven Came Down” for the special.

Bro. James said that was his favorite song. His message was taken from 1 Cor. 15:26-38. His title was “Living With Our Last Enemy” and that enemy is death.

We had several visitors in our congregation, many being family of Katie Griggs who was baptized after the sermon. This is a beautiful expression of obedience in the life of a newborn child of God. We are so thankful Katie has made this step.

We had three birthdays to celebrate this week. Britny Fletcher, Tracy Griggs and Bro. James all got a year older, but Britny was the only one flashing new car keys. Congratulations

Representative. Sanderson made an impressive showing in the last election but fell just short of the victory. He hopes to garner the needed votes to represent (Kenton) and District 77 which includes Obion County, Lake County and part of Dyer County. Good luck Bill in your bid for public service.

Food for Thought: Let me tell you a story of true love like no other. It’s a story that will awe you my sister, my brother. It’s a story of a Father who offered His Son. To be sacrificed for you, me and all mankind. It’s a story that can never be duplicated or repeated. ‘Cause “He died once and for all” and once is all that is needed. It’s a story that will change you and eternal life give you. But only when you let it, believe it and receive it too.

Prayer List: Regina Miller, Henry Herane, Billy Wardlow, Elmer Williams, Paul Lee Williams, Jesse Davidson, Elaine Davidson, Sam Weatherly, Eurby Sanders, Freda Lamar, Sue Rush, Bobby Joe Rush, Joe Rush, Carol Primrose and Clint McLodge.

Sunday night we moved our worship service to Whitehall where Larry Simmons was preaching. We had a really good turnout and enjoyed being with our friends there.

Bro. Larry preached from Luke 15:11-32.The Griggs girls hosted a Pampered Chef party honoring Kristin Mouser and Todd Littleton. We all enjoyed selecting things we know she will need in the kitchen preparing meals for that big boy. This time next week they will be a married couple. Family and friends are anticipating a great week for these two.

Wisdom words from the pastor: Each Sabbath Day, or day of rest, belongs to the Lord of the Sabbath, Jesus Christ. Time is to be devoted to worship, reminding those who worship that the God whom is praised has indeed made everything and is concerned enough to provide a day each week for us to rest.God bless and have a great week.

How about the weather we had last week? After a few days of cooler days this week, the warmer days are just a few weeks off.

We had a different Sunday service with a lot of changes.

Brother Jason and Julie went out of town for a few days. Brian Hintin filled in for him. His message was from James 2:14-20.

Larry Belew filled in for Kasey, who was out sick.

Danny Dunn had the service Sunday night. Christy Hintin had special music, “I Will Rise.”

We are blessed to have

men who can fill in when others are out.

We are starting an exercise group on Monday and Thursday nights at 6:30 p.m. Come out and join us! Some can move faster than others, but we all have a good time!

Those having birthdays this week: Shirley Bell, Clarice Warren, Brooke Walker, Ercelle King and Rogan Bogardus.

We had several visitors and we welcome you back. If you do not have a home church. Come visit us at First Baptist Church. Until next week, God bless.

Iron Supplements for Iron Deficiency Anemia

Anemia is a condition in which there is a reduced red blood cell mass accompanied by a decreased capacity by the blood to carry oxygen. Iron deficiency anemia is also characterized by a low hemoglobin count and small red blood cells. Sickle cell anemia and thalassemia are genetic forms of anemia that are similar to iron deficiency anemia. Women are more likely than men to be iron deficient. While there are many different types of anemia, iron deficiency anemia is the most common. This anemia is caused by a depletion of iron stored in the body, which may be caused by an insufficient amount of iron intake (especially from animal protein), an increased demand from the body for iron (such as in pregnancy, infants, adolescents, and the elderly), and loss of blood (such as due to trauma or gastrointestinal ulcers).

Iron supplements are available for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia. Such supplements should be taken 1 to 2 hours before eating a meal. It is best to take iron supplements with orange juice to improve absorption of the medication. Iron supplements also should be taken 1 hour before or 3 hours after antacids. Ferrous sulfate (Feosol), ferrous gluconate (Fergon), and ferrous fumarate (Feostat) are iron supplements commonly prescribed for this condition.

You are invited to attend a 90th birthday reception for Mrs. Joyce Cavender on February 26th from 2-4 p.m.

The reception will be held at Willow Oak Retirement Home in Dyer. Friends, family

and community are invited to attend and honor her on this special occasion.

The reception is being hosted by her children, Ronny and Carol Merryman and Johnny and Cathy Cavender.

Mrs. Joyce Cavender

Reception planned for Cavender’s 90th birthday

A wonderful day was spent last Sunday in worship to our God. Isn’t it an honor and privilege to praise and glorify our Lord? We were thankful to have visitors with us for our morning and evening worship services.

Our morning lesson was centered on the life of an old man. His name was Peter. We looked at “Perspectives from an Aged Apostle”. Our text was from 2 Peter 1:12-15. When a person faces impending death, their mind usually turns to thinking about things most important to them.

For example, when Jesus knew His death was imminent, His prayer in John 17 reveals that the unity of believers was a great concern to Him. From our text for this lesson, it is evident that the apostle Peter knew his time on earth was short. What kind of things were on the mind of Peter at this time? What did the Apostle consider to be of great importance?

As we look at the ending of Peter’s life, he sees the need to remind the people of some things. He is taking steps to ensure that they are reminded after his death. Frequent reminding can “stir up” (to remind them) of the things he has taught them in the previous verses.

There is the tendency for some to become slack in their service to God. Somehow we need to be constantly “aroused, awakened” to what we have been told. We need to assemble together so

that we can be reminded. Through daily Bible

reading we can be reminded of what Peter has said even after his death. Peter views his body as a “tabernacle” or tent. His body was only a temporary housing for his “inner man” which continues after death. Death is “putting off the tent.” Far from viewing death as an end, Peter sees it as an exodus (exit) from one world to another. Two times, Peter refers to “these things”.(vs. 12, 15). “These things” must refer to what Peter had described in previous verses. In what little time Peter had left, he wanted to remind them of that which was most important. They were to continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ as defined by Peter in verses 5-11.

This should be of utmost importance to the Christian today! Have you ever benefited from some older person during their death? They may remind us of some important event in their life and they do not want us to forget it.

It must have been a wonderful privilege to sit at the feet of the apostle Peter and listen to his words of exhortation and warning and to receive counsel from one who knew our Lord intimately, and served Him long and faithfully. Will we take advantage of the “Perspectives of an Aged Apostle, and allow his “reminders” to stir us up?

DYER FIRST ASSEMBLY OF GOD CHURCH VALENTINE BANQUET -Dyer First Assembly of God Church enjoyed a steak dinner Valentine’s Banquet, February 14th. Guest speakers were Lisa and Phillip Smartt (couple to the right) of Dresden. Mrs. Smartt is the writer of a weekly newspaper column for the Union City Messenger and the Weakly County Press called “The Smartt View.” She is also author of the book, “The Smartt View: ‘Life, Love and Cluttered Closets.” Mr. Smartt is a professor at the University of TN at Martin. Pastor Mark and Melody Kirkpatrick (left) were are pictured with the speakers.

and grandchildren carry on the tradition of gathering at the country store. Mac Zarecor was one customer on hand to help tell about the history of the store. He stated that the building had originally been a packing shed that was built by Raymond Baker. In the late 1940’s, Red Ledbetter converted the packing shed into a store.

There is plenty of opportunity for sagely conversation to develop in the country store. As a group of regular customers where enjoying meals ranging from hamburger steak with all the

trimmings, to shrimp plates, someone in the crowd pointed out an elderly gentleman enjoying an ice cream bar. “George Clark can remember more about this store than anyone else here. He came here with Davy Crockett.”

As laughter rippled along the table, the elderly Clark savored his ice cream along with the joke for a thoughtful moment, then stated, “Yeah, I was going to go to the Alamo too, but I changed my mind. That’s why I’m sitting here enjoying my ice cream.”

One way the store has adapted to a modern economy is having a good,

old-fashioned auction every Saturday night in the back portion of the store. Facing an auctioneer’s podium are one hundred auditorium seats salvaged from a school. People come every Saturday night, from 6 p.m. in winter (7 p.m. in summer) until late into the evening. They come from as far away as Kentucky and Mississippi to hawk their wares and to place their bids to a standing room only crowd. All the while, the kitchen that runs the length of the counter in the front of the store is churning out orders for great country cooking, done only the way the South can do. The specialty of the house on Friday and Saturday nights is catfish with all the trimmings, but there are all manner of shrimp plates, cheeseburgers, and cold cuts galore, all of it served up in the country-store-kind-of-way.

So the next time someone says the country store is a thing of the past, give him or her directions to Yorkville Market. They might be in need of discovering golden brown catfish fried just right, or the taste of real rag bologna, a treat that causes truck drivers to make a detour whenever they can.

ALL IN THE FAMILY - Mother and daughter, Charlene Baisentine and Paula Harrison, own and operate the Yorkville Market. The store has been the family’s business for 12 years.

Morning worship services had an attendance of 120 and 98 in Sunday school. Perfect attendance was the two and three year olds with Bobby Sullivan, 1st-2nd grade with Betty Bell and the 3-5th grade with Mrs. Mynonne Tate.

The message for the

morning service came from the book of 1John 4, Love Perfected, Love one another, and God is Love.

The message for the evening service came from the book of Mark 15, The Road to Golgatha.

Remember in Prayer: Reitha Martin, Lyle Tate, all of our shut-ins and ones in the nursing home.

The teacher’s banquet and workshop was wonderful. Jon Ewing was our guest speaker for the workshop. We gained many ideas on how to make our VBS program a success. Many thanks go to Joey and Jackie Barron for the meal, decorations and fellowship.

Thanks to everyone who came to church early Sunday night to get our House to House, Heart to Heart brochures ready for mailing. We had a good crowd and got the brochures ready with time to spare.

Keep us in your prayers as we travel to the Challenge Youth Conference in Gatlinburg this coming Friday through Sunday. The kids and adults are always inspired by the singing, worship, and fellowship from this event. Richard Tharpe will be bringing the message for next Sunday’s worship service.

Each year Gibson County High School students have joined other students across Tennessee to participate in citizenship programs sponsored by the American Legion and American Legion Auxiliary. Known as Girls State and Boys State, these two highly regarded programs teach and encourage leadership and civic responsibility in rising seniors.

For the past 30 years, the generosity of community organizations has made it possible for GCHS students to attend Boys State and Girls State. GCHS is currently seeking sponsorship of its delegates for this year’s program. If you would like to sponsor a delegate or make a donation toward a sponsorship, please contact Eddie Pruett, principal, or Jackie Tucker, counselor, at 692-3616.

BY LORI CATHEYPioneers vs Obion County

Gibson County Pioneers started the District13AA Tournament off with a 64-62 win over Obion County Tuesday night. Pioneers jumped to an 8-4 lead with 3.55 left in the first quarter. The Rebels were able to fight their way back and take a 16-12 lead at the end of the first. GC’s Tony Eskew hit a 3-point jump shot from the left wing to cut the deficit to 26-23 with 4.43 remaining in the second frame.

The Pioneers were outscored 17-14 in the second quarter and were down by 33-26 at halftime. The third quarter belonged to the home team Obion County. The Rebels biggest lead was 14 points late in the third. Pioneer Denzell Harris with an offensive rebound made a basket at the buzzer to leave Obion County up by 54-42.

With 4:15 left in the fourth, GC’s Mike Horton hit back-to-back baskets to make it 57-52, getting the Pioneers as close as they had been since halftime. Pioneer Tony Eskew sank a jumper and was fouled for a three-point play to cut the lead to 58-57. Then Mitchell Simpson made a lay up off a great pass from Davante Watson, with 1:55 left to give Gibson County a 59-58 lead. Pioneer Watson stole the ball at half-court for a lay-up with 58 seconds left. The lay-up put the Pioneers ahead, 61-58 and sent Obion County into a timeout.

Gibson County came out of the gate hot, leading after the first quarter by31-11. Lady Pioneer Butler scored 15 of her 25 points in the first quarter. GC’s Aubrey Reedy opened the second quarter up with a turnaround jumper for a basket. With 40 seconds left

in the second frame, Reedy shot a 3-pointer from the top of the key to take a 52-21 lead into the locker room at halftime.

Gibson County extended its lead to 70-34 with 2:01 left in the third quarter after Butler drove in for a lay up and Griffin followed with a 3-pointer.

After building a 78-36 lead with 5:19 to play, Gibson County coach David Russell started to make substitutions for the

remainder of the game. Gibson County defeated

The Pioneers out scored the Rebels 22 to 8 in the last quarter. Gibson County head coach Michael Hart said, “This was a team effort, everyone contributed.

GC’s Mitchell Simpson had 4 of the 6 points in the first quarter. The Tigers opened up a 29-point lead at half time, 44-15, thanks to a very balanced offensive attack and solid defense. Gibson County was outscored 23 to

9 in the second period. Again in the third,

the Tigers took charge and pulled out to a 65-32 advan tage . The Tigers never looked back and continued to extend their lead to 73-44 for the final score.

“Not our best performance,” Gibson County coach Michael Hart said. “The last couple of weeks we’ve done some very good things. The case tonight was just not taking

care of the basketball. We didn’t come out and play with the intensity tonight that I was hoping for.

The Pioneers had double wins for the second strait year and were in most games until the end of the game. Scoring for Gibson County were: Mitchell Simpson with 12 points, Denzell Harris with 7, Mike Horton 6, Tony Eskew 6, Marc Roach 4, John Lee with 4, Korensky Simpson 3 and Davente Watson 2.

A 3-member nominating committee will nominate officers for election in September, said Nance. Nominations will also be taken from the floor. A finance

committee is comprised of the treasurer and two members.

The group’s next meeting will be March 9 at the Milan VFW on N. Main. This will be a non-business meeting open to the public, said Nance.

Speakers will be Richard Archie on rediscovering the Constitution, and Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey speaking on his candidacy as Governor. Ramsey will answer questions.

A western band, “Adams Station” will provide music. “Their music is reminiscent of the ‘Sons of the Pioneers,’” said Nance.

According to Karl Rove, former advisor to Pres. George W. Bush, the tea party movement “arose spontaneously as ordinary Americas reacted to a rising tide of federal spending and debt, growing federal power, and the too-cozy relationship between Washington and corporate America.”

businessman, said the Gibson Co. Patriots have approximately 175 members based on email correspondence.

“The ‘Gibson County Patriots’ are recognized across the state as being the fastest growing group of Tea Party Patriots in Tennessee,” said Nance. “Our continued growth is important. In the political world, numbers count.

“The Tea Party movement across the country is growing and growing fast,” Nance

added. “It is my hope that the Tea Party movement will become a permanent part of America. We are for the most part the silent majority who are no longer silent.”

People interested can email [email protected] and indicate “sign me up” or “send me more information.”

The “Patriots” group intends to influence traditional political parties, not form a new party, said Nance. “The ‘Gibson County Patriots,’ as well as The Tea Party movement in general, is a movement to influence both political parties to become morally and fiscally responsible and to conduct government within the limits of our Constitution,” Nance explained.

Nance said the Patriots may promote political candidates. “At this time it is not intended that we nominate or support any candidate financially as a group,” he said. “We may however elect to publicly advertise our support and promote candidates who we feel are candidates of good character, with conservative values, who are qualified, and have a history of being fiscally responsible.”

Objectives of the “Gibson County Patriots” are as follows:

•To support, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America and to oppose all legislation that infringe on the people’s rights guaranteed by our Constitution.

•To support the education and edification of the citizens of the United States of America at the local, state and federal level, for the purpose of creating fair, constitutionally correct legislation.

•To monitor, evaluate and respond to legislation proposed by our elected officials at the local, state and federal levels and to ensure that conservative values are incorporated into said legislation.

•To support legislation to oppose abortion and especially tax payer funded abortion.

•To support the right to keep and bear arms as provided in the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.

•To support traditional family marriage.

•To support securing our borders and the enforcement of our immigration laws.

•To support the return to state sovereignty according to the Tenth Amendment.

•To support common sense alternatives to our current system of Federal income tax.

•To oppose any new Federal, State or Local Government sponsored social programs and oppose socialism in all forms and by whatever names it may be called.
