I’d been sharing my mid-20s with an educated, sane man for more than two years when he remarked in his cheerful British accent how amazed he was that given all the time we’d been in Gina our apartment, not one light bulb Barreca had ever stopped working. Contributing I looked up from the pile of columnist papers I was grading to doublecheck if he was not kidding. He wasn’t. “What did you think happened? I sold my soul to the lamp fairy? We practically live in a basement. I replace bulbs constantly,” I said. “I never saw you do it,” he replied. “So I merely assumed we were terribly fortunate.” That, my friends, was the end of that relationship and the beginning of the light bulb test. Here’s what maturity does: Maturity ﬁlls the salt-shakers and it wipes down the shelves in the fridge when they’re sticky. It empties the kitty litter before stalagmites form. Maturity understands that there can be one junk drawer in a house, but not 27. Maturity doesn’t text, type, game or take calls when in conversation with others. Maturity backs up its ﬁles, goes to a doctor or a clinic when it’s in pain, and, according to Jan Bell, on occasion picks up the tab when it goes out to dinner with its parents. Maturity understands that nobody wants the back story of why something didn’t get done because it knows that what matters is the effective completion of a task. In contrast, immaturity has an extensive list of prefab excuses for why it couldn’t make its deadline. Immaturity uses every tummy ache, ﬂu, headache, fallen arch, hangnail or breakup as an excuse to slip the knot of accountability. Immaturity, then, doesn’t understand why life is always “so unfair, like, always” when it offers criticism instead of condolences for failure. Immaturity whines; immaturity rolls its eyes; immaturity takes everything personally; immaturity accepts no responsibility; immaturity sprays Febreze on clothes instead of washing them; immaturity shows up late and leaves early. In short, immaturity is spoiled. And what is spoiled doesn’t ripen. It goes bad early, gets bitter and withers on the vine. Wanting to escape the consequences of inaction or poor choices is my deﬁnition of immaturity. It doesn’t matter how old you are. One of the most immature statements I’ve heard was from a woman 20 years my senior. “I’m not bothering to make out a will. The kids will settle it after I’m gone.” She sounded smug about the fact that her character would be able to exit the scene before the plot’s crisis. She’d convinced herself that she was getting away with something, but I think she was leaving others to clean up her mess — which is a deﬁning feature of immaturity. While immaturity and laziness are inextricably linked, neither is irrevocable. TJ Murphy, a recent college graduate, understands maturity better than my older acquaintance. TJ deﬁnes maturity in practical terms: “1. Making your own doctor appointments. 2. Separating colors when you do laundry. 3. Rinsing the dishes immediately after use.” Alison Grambs, author of a new book, “Here’s Why I Suck, Gramma … A Bedtime Story for Grown-Ups Who Need To Grow Up,” says she knows she is now ofﬁcially an adult because although she will “still yell and scream and stomp my feet and slam down the phone when ﬁghting with my mom,” she will also “Call my mom back, like, immediately, to tell her I love her and that she’s actually right about some — just some, but some — things.” Maturity asks for help, asks forgiveness and asks if this is a good time to talk. When maturity goes out for a cup of coffee, it asks if you want one. When maturity argues, it also listens. When maturity laughs, it’s in recognition of its own connection to the human condition and it’s not at the expense of others. Maturity understands that there’s darkness in the world but that there’s no need to dwell in it: We can lighten up and offer illumination to others. True, you might need to put in a new bulb, but sometimes you can ﬂip the switch, let in the light and with patience, perspective and courage face what’s in front of you.

It was the night of the Christmas gala at Gallery at 409, which was also a stop on the French Art Colony’s Annual Holiday Home Tour, taking place this weekend. The trees on Main Street were wrapped with lights and light balls hung from their limbs, all decorated by the Main Street Merchants. Gunn Park was aglow with the city’s Christmas tree and the trees from the “Light of Christmas” tree project. It was an idyllic sight. My ﬁrst thought, was, “So, this must’ve been what it was like.” Growing up, I heard stories about how “busy” downtown Point Pleasant was and how there were frequently no available parking spots on Main Street, but, then something happened. My Nannie (you remember her and her ham from last week), was working at Franklin’s shoe store on Main Street the night it happened, only about a block from where it happened. She said there was a loud “boom!” Then, the lights went out. Her ﬁrst thought was, someone had blown up the bank across the street – a far-fetched deduction, yes, but in that disorienting moment, what else could it be? She had nothing to compare it to, other than something from a movie or a story, certainly nothing from real life. Moments later, she was told “the soon as possible. bridge fell” and Of course, there she walked up are no words which to the where it will do justice to had sat since the impact the col1928.

Holdyn Keefer of Point Pleasant, will throw the honorary “switch” on the lights which will decorate the trees around the bridge memorial. As for downtown Point Pleasant, the fact there was a night where there was nowhere to park, is a sign of resilience. It’s s sign people are working to make things better in their own way. Though “the road” no longer goes through Point Pleasant, others still do.

When he came home from rehabilitation, unable to read, I thought a nice Christmas present would be a picture book of Glenn’s trip in space that fall. I asked his Senate ofﬁce to see if he would autograph it. Minutes later, the senator called, “What happened to Jeffrey?” After I explained, Glenn wanted to know why we hadn’t told him. “Well, senator, you were in space,” I replied. The next morning, Glenn arrived at our house with the book and spent an hour gently encouraging Jeffrey. Albert R. Hunt is a Bloomberg View columnist.

Board members include Evans, Vice President Marian Schoonover, Recording Secretary Linda Criner, Corresponding Secretary Cogar, Treasurer Ann Brown and members Mary James and Jean Niday. Evans reported that the television show “Who Do You Think You Are?” contacted them last summer about research of one of the French Five Hundred. Evans asked for whom she was researching and they asked if she had ever heard of the show. As a result of all this, over 100 pages of material were sent to them and a continuing dialogue led eventually to the producers coming here to scout out the site. This show features celebrities and traces their roots back for them. They completed ﬁlming in Gallipolis in November and the show will air sometime in the spring. While the celebrity remains a secret, the society was able to make her an honorary member of “First Families” for the 2017 inductees. Thanks were expressed to the attendees and the board members who man the ofﬁce and work tirelessly on projects.

RACINE, Ohio — It took nearly three minutes for the Tornadoes to make their ﬁrst ﬁeld goal, but once the Purple and Gold got rolling, they never slowed down. The Southern boys basketball team led by 27 points at halftime and marched on to a 74-47 Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division victory over visiting Miller, on Friday night in Meigs County. Southern (2-0, 2-0 TVC Hocking) never trailed in the game and led 22-7 at the end of the ﬁrst period. The Tornado lead grew to 44-17 by halftime, thanks in large part to Southerns’ 26-14 advantage in ﬁrst half rebounding. In the ﬁrst 6:45 of the second half, SHS built its lead to 62-25, but Miller (0-1, 0-1) caught ﬁre in the ﬁnal 1:15 of the third, ending the period with a 12-2 run. Both teams scored 10 points over the ﬁnal eight minutes, and Southern claimed the 74-47 triumph. “In the ﬁrst half we played really good basketball,” SHS head coach Jeff Caldwell said. “I was very pleased with the intensity they came out with and I felt we were moving the ball really well. We just couldn’t maintain that level of play in the second half. I felt like we starting fouling too much and that made us lose the ﬂow of what we were doing. We need to work on our defense and footwork to make sure we’re not committing silly fouls.” For the game, Southern shot 11-of-16 (68.8 percent) from the free throw line and 27-of-65 (41.5 percent) from the ﬁeld, including 9-of-25 (36 percent) from beyond the arc. Meanwhile, Miller was 8-of-19 (42.1 percent) from the stripe and 17-of-57 (29.8 percent) from the ﬁeld, including 5-of-24 (20.8 percent) from three-point range. See MILLER | 2B Lady Raiders top Wellston for 1st win By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com BIDWELL, Ohio — In surpassing the 40-point plateau for the ﬁrst time this season, the Lady Raiders are ofﬁcially in the win column. That’s because host River Valley, in its Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division girls basketball opener on Thursday night, edged the visiting Wellston Golden Rockets by a count of 42-40. River Valley, beginning its third campaign in the TVC and Ohio Division, captured its ﬁrst victory of what’s been a trying season so far. The Lady Raiders are now 1-3, while Wellston slipped to 1-2. The outcome also marked the ﬁrst head coaching win for ﬁrst-year RVHS mentor Stephen Roderick, coaching in only his third game after taking over the team 10 days ago. The Lady Raiders and Golden Rockets stood tied 7-7 following the ﬁrst quarter — and 18-18 at halftime. But the difference was the third quarter, when River Valley erupted for 20 points — including making 7-of-8 free throws. Wellston, conversely, scored just ﬁve points — a three-pointer by Sydney Mullins and 2-of-4 foul shots by Mya Bouska. The Golden Rockets reversed the trend in the fourth frame, outscoring the Lady Raiders 17-4, but missing nine free throws — including six in the second half — did the Blue and Gold in. The Silver and Black’s only points in the period were a Jessica Steele ﬁeld goal and free throws by Cierra Roberts and Savannah Reese. River Valley, which held a 14-10 advantage in total ﬁeld goals, overcame an 11-of-21 free-throw performance. Wellston was 17-of-26, as both clubs canned three three-pointers apiece.

The Blue Devils scored the opening eight points, then led twice in the third period by eight —at 43-35 and 49-41. In fact, Gallia Academy led 49-41 entering the fourth quarter, but nine consecutive points over the ﬁrst four minutes and 41 seconds gave Point Pleasant its ﬁrst lead since exactly 24 minutes earlier. The Blue Devils’ only points in the ﬁnal stanza came on four free throws —two by Evan Wiseman and one apiece by McClelland and Zach Loveday. The Blue Devils doomed themselves by making only 16-of-26 foul shots, unable to clinch the contest in regulation. “We’re disappointed because you hate to lose. I can’t blame the kids because they played hard,” said Gallia Academy coach Gary Harrison. “We let Workman get hot and he had a great game. We couldn’t stop him and we missed 10 free throws that could have changed the game. We have to make free throws. The ﬁrst half, we played a 2-3 matchup zone. We had hands in his face, but he was just making them. You have to run a shooter off the line and in the ﬁrst half, we just didn’t run him off the line.” Workman got the Big Blacks on the board with an old-fashioned three-point play, then proceeded to pop ﬁve trifectas to erase the early 10-2 deﬁcit — and even forge a 12-10 Point Pleasant lead. There were three ties in the ﬁrst period, with the two teams standing even at 20-20 after one. Workman then tallied nine more markers in the second stanza, giving him a whopping 27 for the entire ﬁrst half. As a team, Point Pleasant had 33 points at the break — with two-point ﬁeld goals from Rairden, Trace Derenberger and Will Harbour. “Doug has worked hard, put in the time, and he just put us on his back and carried us,” said Williams. “There’s no plays called or anything, he just got hot, which he is capable of doing.

The host Eagles (1-2, 1-1 TVC Hocking) matched baskets with the unbeaten Tomcats (2-0, 2-0) in the opening period, which led to an eightall contest after eight minutes of play. THS, however, received six points from Ryan Richards as part of a 12-7 second quarter run that gave the Red and Gray a 20-15 edge at the break. The Tomcats got another half-dozen points from Richards in the third during a 13-6 charge that ultimately gave the guests a comfortable 33-21 cushion headed into the ﬁnale. EHS ended regulation with a small 12-10 run, but the hosts never came closer than three possessions the rest of the way. Jett Facemyer led Eastern with 12 points, with eight of those coming in the second half. Corbett Catlett was next with eight points, followed by Sharp Facemyer with six points and Matt Browning with ﬁve markers. Jon Wolfe concluded the EHS tally with two points. The Eagles made only two of their 14 ﬁeld goals from behind the arc and also went 3-of-5 from the free throw line for 60 percent. Richards led Trimble with a game-high 14 points, followed by Kamron Curry with 11 points and Tyler Slack with nine markers. Randy Henson and Max Hooper concluded the winning tally with respective efforts of ﬁve and four points. THS was 4-of-8 from the free throw line for 50 percent and also netted only one of its 19 made ﬁeld goals from three-point range. Bryan Walters can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2101.

And, those one-point foul shots were just as important as those threeballs, as Ohio Valley Christian School — in its boys basketball home opener on Thursday— pushed past the Cross Lanes Christian School Warriors, 63-54. OVCS only trailed 2-0, scored 17 consecutive points, extended its advantage to as large as 20 (27-7) only eight minutes and 45 seconds in, then held off a Warrior comeback bid in the ﬁnal six minutes.

With the victory, OVCS won its second straight to improve to 2-1, while Cross Lanes Christian slipped to 4-3. “Cross Lanes is one of our rivals, so anytime we beat them, it’s a big win. This is our home opener, we’ve got six new players this year, we’re a work in progress and it will be that way all season. But as long as we improve the whole way, that’s what we are looking for,” said Rice. And, Rice did see increased intensity by the Defenders — along with improved defense and rebounding, especially against the taller Warriors. OVCS outrebounded Cross Lanes 24-16, as Beaver ripped down 15 boards — while Ragan recorded seven. “I think he (Beaver) had 15 rebounds and he wanted the ball,” said Rice. “As a team, we boxed out really well, which allowed him a little bit more space to go get the ball and he did. He went after the ball tough too.” The Warriors also shot only 5-of-16 from three-point range. Ryan Corbin, on seven ﬁeld goals and 4-of-5 free throws, paced Cross Lanes with 19 points — as Casey Legg landed 15 points on three twos, two threes and 3-of-3 at the line. Legg scored a ﬁeld goal just 43 seconds in, but the Warriors’ next points — after 17 straight by OVCS — didn’t occur until the 53-second mark of the opening quarter. “We talked about coming out with intensity, because the ﬁrst two games this year we’ve came out ﬂat. This game, we wanted to make sure we got up early on them. Guys came out, they were hitting their shots just the way you wanted them to,” said Rice. “Our guys were moving a lot better and communicating a lot better on defense, we were rebounding a lot better than what we’ve been doing.” McDonald made his only triple to make it 20-5, as his stickback to beat the ﬁrst-quarter buzzer made it 22-7. He then converted a pair of technicalfoul free throws only 17 seconds into the second period, as Ragan’s ﬁnal of his three trifectas made it 27-7 just 28 seconds later. For the ﬁnal 16 minutes and 17 seconds, the Defenders’ lead ranged anywhere from seven to 15 points. The Defenders return to action on Tuesday, and return to the road when they travel to Wayne County (W. Va.).

Eastern outscored Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division host Miller in all but one quarter, as the visiting Green, White and Gold charged to a 56-36 victory, for their fourth straight win to start the season. EHS (4-0, 2-0 TVC Hocking) had six different players mark in the scoring column in the ﬁrst quarter alone, and the Lady Eagles led 19-8, eight minutes into play. An 11-to-7 run in the second quarter, allowed Eastern to take a 30-15 lead into halftime. The EHS offense cooled off after the break, however, as both teams marked just eight points in the third period. Eastern shook it off in the fourth quarter, outscoring Miller (0-4, 0-2) 18-to-13, to seal the 56-36 victory. EHS senior Laura Pullins led the victors with 19 points, followed by Madison Williams with 13 and Jess Parker with 12. Elizabeth Collins scored six points in the win, Hannah Bailey added four, while Becca Pullins rounded out the Lady Eagle scoring with two points. Eastern — which made two threepointers in the win — had an uncharacteristically poor night from the free throw line, sinking just 8-of-15 attempts for 53.3 percent. Haille Joseph led the hosts with eight points, followed by Ashley Spenoek with seven and Olivia Houk with six. Askya McFann scored ﬁve points, Lacey Alexander and Chloe Rine both added four, while Brooklyn Nilson chipped in with two points. MHS was 4-of-10 from the charity stripe and made just one trifecta in the setback. Eastern will go for the season sweep of the Lady Falcons on January 21, in Tuppers Plains.

Visiting Jackson broke away from a 31-all tie with an impressive 32-15 fourth quarter surge Friday night en route to a 63-46 decision over the Meigs boys basketball team in a non-conference matchup at Larry R. Morrison Gymnasium in Meigs County. The Marauders (0-3) found themselves in an early hole after falling behind 9-4 eight minutes into regulation, but the hosts responded with a small 16-14 second quarter run to close to within 23-20 at the intermission. MHS kept that momentum going into second half as Jared Kennedy netted six points as part of an 11-8 run that tied things up at 31-all headed into the ﬁnale. The unbeaten Ironmen (3-0), however, found their stroke down the stretch as the Red and White netted ﬁve trifectas and went 11-of-16 at the free throw line en route to claiming the 17-point triumph. JHS — which hit 10 trifectas in the contest — also had three players reach double ﬁgures, compared to only one double-digit effort by the Marauders. Meigs connected on 13-of-36 ﬁeld goal attempts for 36 percent, which included a 3-of-14 effort from behind the arc for 21 percent. The hosts also hauled in 30 rebounds (10 offensive) and committed 23 turnovers in the setback. Kennedy led the Marauders with 13 points and nine rebounds, followed by Weston Baer and Dillon Mahr with eight markers each. Christian Mattox was next with ﬁve points, while Luke Musser chipped in four markers — all of which came in the fourth period. Bailey Caruthers and Garrett Buckley were next with three points each, while Zach Helton completed the team tally with two markers. MHS was 17-of-28 at the free throw line for 61 percent. Carson Spohn led Jackson with seven trifectas — which included four triples in the second canto — and a game-high 23 points. Bryce Hall and Cooper Donaldson were next with 10 markers each, while Payton Speakman added eight points. Kendall Neal contributed six points, while Josh Spires, Blake Wyatt and Blake McCoy completed the winning tally with two points apiece. JHS was 12-of18 at the charity stripe for 67 percent.

The Gallia Academy girls basketball team led Ohio Valley Conference guest Rock Hill 13-to-8 eight minutes into play, on Thursday night in Gallia County. However, the Redwomen outscored GAHS 55-to- 22 over the rest of the game, as Rock Hill took the victory by a 63-35 ﬁnal. The Blue Angels’ (2-2, 0-2 OVC) ﬁve-point lead quickly vanished, as Rock Hill (3-1, 1-1) used a 17-to-8 second quarter run to take a four-point advantage into halftime. GAHS was outscored 18-to-5 in the third quarter, as RHHS pushed its lead to 43-26. The Redwomen closed the game with a 20-9 run, sealing their ﬁrst conference win of the year by a 63-35 margin. GAHS senior Adrienne Jenkins sank the Blue Angels’ lone trifecta and led the hosts with 17 points, 14 of which came before halftime. Carly Shriver and Alex Barnes both scored six points for the Blue and White, Hunter Copley added four points, while Kimberly Edelmann rounded out the team total with two points. The Blue Angels made just 6-of-14 free throw attempts, equaling 42.9 percent. Meanwhile, Rock Hill was 6-of-10 from the stripe for 60 percent. Rock Hill — which connected on seven three-pointers in the win — was led by Anna Darby 17 points, and Jill Hairston with 14. Kyleigh Noel scored 10 points, Maddie Scott and Taylor Hall both added seven, while Maykayla Scott and Caitlynn Meadows rounded out the Red and White scoring with six and two points respectively.

Laura Cleland is a Health Educator with the Meigs County Health Department VINTON — The Vinton chapter of the Booksand-Friends met recently at the Vinton Town Hall. There were 11 members present and one guest. Those having November birthdays were recognized: Peggy Patterson Coulson and Phyllis Mulholand. The November reading selection was “The Faith of the American Soldier” by Stephen Mansﬁeld.This book examines the religious and spiritual issues in America’s wars and then considers what is lost to our military through a secular approach to battle. The author records the reﬂections and testimonies of men and women who have fought on the front lines from Lexington to Iraq. Regarding this book, Mansﬁeld had the following to say, “This book is the product of a search for the meaning of the American warrior code and the faith that gave it birth. A nation’s warrior code is an extension of its soul, the embodiment of its highest ideals.” Members listened and participated in a discussion led by guest facilitator John Jackson. John has served as a military chaplain so he has ﬁrst-hand knowledge on the subject. He gave his thoughts regarding the role of chaplains in the military, the core values of the American soldier and how American culture has changed from one war to the next. Jackson passed around a newspaper clipping with the pictures of four chaplains of the Dorchester whose stories were detailed in the book. This tale of the Dorchester chaplains was hailed by the author as “the best of what a military chaplain strives to be.” The chaplains were aboard the American transport ship Dorchester on Feb. 2, 1943 heading through the icy North Atlantic just off the coast of Greenland when it was hit by a torpedo from a German submarine. Of the 902 soldiers she carried, only 230 men survived. As the ship slipped into the sea, the four chaplains linked arms, grasped the railing of the ship together, and began shouting encouragement to the men in the sea. One survivor, John Ladd, recalled it as “the ﬁnest thing I have seen or hope to see this side of heaven.” The author says that these chaplains showed self-sacriﬁce, broad-mindedness, spiritual passion, devotion to troops, and everything that embodies the highest that men of God in war hope to achieve and that they have set a vision of greatness for future generations. Visitors walking through the memorial chapel at the Pentagon or praying in the Community Chapel at West Point can look up at the stained-glass windows that celebrate the heroism of these four Dorchester chaplains. The next meeting for members and guests will be Dec. 19 at 5 p.m. at Phyllis Mulholand’shome. “The Choice” by Nicholas Sparks is the book selection for December. Courtesy photo Rev.
